i'm BACK! ah! i've been feeling so deprived. you know how it is. when you don't have soemthing, it just makes you want all the more.
but now. i'm kinda at a loss for words. either i blog in minute detail about probably everythign over the past week and launch into a string of gibberish..or be fully pragmatic and clipped and say a grand total of like 50 words.
i shall attempt to be concise.
1. i passed my first math test of the year! and the first test for that matter. did fail the chem quiz by a bit. but i'm still quite pleased. i bet the results are quite shitty but it's a pleasant change from my F before.
2. i got caught for my hair! so i dyed it over with dark chestnut and got blasted again. i think the two dyes reacted. so i've got a cross between brown and hay now. gonna dye it again tomorrow. my hair's really dry and fried now.
3. went for HC campfire! i've never really had a proper HC orientation. and probably the only memories of any orientation in HC was pure anguish. so joining my class and heading for the J1 campfire was something different. singing the HC songs(finally) and doing the mass dance(which i still can't) with yiling(we make an interesting pair, she's got 2 right feet and i've got 2 left)
4. 5 LD performances for chinese new year! we're back in the business. suddenly, i'm excited again! i don't care if the training's back to back. i'm glad that i have something to work towards in my cca.
5. talentime? i really hope more people will take part then we can all sign up together! i wanna prove to myself that i dare to go sing, dance or something.
6. we're playing the angel/mortal thing with my junior class. and i've got a really nice mortal. we seem to have loads of topics to talk about.
7. i wanna catch the aviator, finding neverland and my brother.
8. my room's finally fixed! after a week not sleeping in my room, it's done! it's really spartan. cream and dark brown to black. but i guess it's about letting my personal touches and knickknacks speak for themselves. the furniture is symbolic too. pure unadulterated me. i love the room. it's really spacious. i don't have the couch, the extra mattress and the floor rug and shelf. it's just a great expanse of parquet. shan't cramp my style.
9. red's the new piink! i've always liked red but had some reservations about wearing it. but i guess. what's to stop you right? i like red, pink and ..dark brown! i guess it has to do partly with my room. but brown is so mysterious..
10. i'm cramming for SATs. boo. the 30 day guide is pretty sucky. there's so many typos and quiestions with no choices or weird answer.
11. injury. one aunt fell and broke her hip bone. my other aunt got involved in an accident. i hate being superstitious, but now when my faith's wobbly, i can't help but feel just a little more worried. and vulnerable. God bless my family.
something funnier. landed a few bumps this year. kicked the table and chair twice. i've got 5 bruises. and i tried to jump standing broad jump..but i slipped, fell and rolled over on to the floor. *horror* my whole class was gaping in amazement.
12. don't wanna wake up alone anymore/still believe that you'll walk through my door/all i need is to know it's for sure/then i'll give..all the love in the world. yipyip. dontneedtoknow.dontneedtoknow.dontneedtoknow. iamcontent.
the year's just 16 days old. but i've got a good feeling so far. maybe a few scrapes. but i must keep pushing forward. school's actually good. being with the class and Friends.
this isn't about pausing to think about what to do, why to do, how to do, when to do, where to do. it's about moving and getting things done and riding the waves.
when you're up there, you don't wanna come down anymore.
