HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!~
Thursday, August 10, 2006 12:35 AM

yes I know it's a bit late but...




HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!=D

haha.. Sad to say, I didnt managed to obtain NDP tickets..
But still, at night, my parents brought us to admire the fireworks outside the stadium.
Needless to say, there were just the so beautiful, and yeah, addictive.
As we walked closer and closer to the fireworks until we are like, sort of, standing below it, I felt this sensation in my heart, and then I felt really warm and soft inside.
haha no really.

so btw... although it's not very nicely taken,































Anyways, before that, in the afternoon, we went to see plants.
kinda boring if you ask me. haha guess I can't appreciate.

















Oh ya, btw I think this plant is kinda stupid.
where are the leaves?
And I dun see it as a form of decoration somehow.
haha
Doesn't it aso reminds you of those wu xia shows on tv, those olden days xia nu who knows qing gong, where they will fly on top of these and stand on the tip of it effortlessly?
LOLS. Ok whatever.

Oh and we went to ISETAN, at orchard.















ok random random.

SO LETS MOVE ON TO YTD!
THE GLORIOUS DAY I WENT TO SHAKE MY HAND WITH OUR DEAR PRINCIPAL FOR GETTIN TENTH PLACE UNDER THE WHOLE SEC3 LEVEL FOR CROSS-COUNTRY AND THUS RECIEVING A MEDAL!
-.-
Ok whatever.
I am so 'honoured' la.
Instead of having the chance to shake hands with our vice-principal or the guest of honor, I had the 'privilege' to shake hands with our dear principal, who kindly insists on me tucking in my shirt before awarding me the medal. while the rest who shook hands with the other two were excused.
but its okay, tucking in my shirt.
But seeing the 'sincere' smile plastered on her face and hearing the 'sastified' tone when she tried awkwardly to place the medal over my head and onto my neck(did she tiptoe?I guess not. I think I bent down a little.How nice of me), was the cherry on top of the wonderful day.
what a fake.

SO ANYWAY,
Wanzhen and I planned to run together..

and the main source of motivation was not becuz of some stupid medal,
but it was frankly, Jefry and Joshua instead.
wahahaha.
I forgot what happened but I remember that the whole scenario was super lame.
we were slow jogging, those idiots ran past us, we caught up and overtook them, they chased us and then overtook us, and this cycle goes on and on....
lols ok la not until the finishing line la..just arnd the middle.
where we all were tired and decided to stop this childish game.
haha.. So me and wanzhen ran and walk, ran and walk.
In fact, we walked and slacked a lot.
haha..wah when we were next to the road, we practically was walking most of the time, so damn exhausted!
haha.. Then towards the end, we saw richmond and we eargerly rushed to overtake him, without him competing with us too.
yes lame I know.
we gave in to him and let him overtake us.
hahahaa.. how generous are we hor.xD

After the cross-country and the time-consuming prize-giving,
me,cinny,lau and sophia took a bus to J8.
Where me and sophia went to meet some of our pri school frens.
that stupid pig changed alot. haha..

After meaningless jalan jalan, we seperated and sophia n I went to join cass and cinny.
took neoprints! haha but the photos didn't really turn out well..
haha nvm..
By then, I was feeling slightly dizzy(cross country) and desperately wanted to go home.
haha so we all went home! err not because of me la.
sophia aso want to go home.. haha

AND I HAD MY HAIR CUT!=D
SHORTER!
AND MY FRINGE NOW IS GONNA LEAVE YOU PPL STUNNED.
hahahaha cuz it's very different.
hopefully on friday when school resumes, I won't be laughed at.. lols.
omg what if mr lee made some sacarstic remark?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH IM SOOOOOO DEAD.
I WANT TO WEAR A MASK TO SCHOOL ON FRIDAY!!!(haha tad'll be worse)

WELCOME:)

you are not alone
I love him all the same

saturday, july 18th, 2009. Michael Jackson, King of Pop
If I were to write this post one week ago I wouldn't have got past the first few lines, without crying so badly. Admittedly, the news of his passing did not bothered, much less saddened me because my impression of him was vague and as a child I wasn;t exposed to any of this songs or videos, just news from the press every now and then. Till a few days after his death. I went on Youtube and before I knew it I was clicking videos after videos, watching and in awe of this man who not only served to entertain, but strived to serve the community with his enormous heart. And as I watched on and knew more, so much more about what he've been through his life, emotions started pouring in. And when I least expected it, tears started to come. I was never his fan, but now I regret not being one. It is not just one of those idol craze or whatever no, it was true sincere admiration for his works and humanitarianism that touched me, that made me look upon him as a role model. Its hard to believe that since the media had portrayed him as some wacko freak, paedophile, child molester..etc. but may I say, BULLSHIT. he is none of that sort. Other than being the greatest entertainer of the time and coming up with the most original dance moves that many stars tried hard (but pale in comparison in my opinion) to imitate, Micheal Jackson shares the love he has, especially to children, to people around him. He was a philanthropist, donating millions of dollars to the record 39 charities he supported, and raising more through his own Heal the World Foundation. He built NeverLand Ranch, complete with amusement parks, fun rides, a place where children dreamed of going for fun and laughter. From young, Michael Jackson had a childhood very different from others, where had to perform at a very young age. When he made mistakes, his father used to beat him, and not only with a belt. To make up for his lost childhood, Michael had always adored children and he himself is somehow like a child trapped in an adult body (watch his documentary, ignore the stupid bastard interviewer who was plain bias and selfish to see that such a nature still exists in a man so great he just had to bring him down. shall not waste time elaborating on this backstabbing ass because he's simply not worth it. If you're interested, watch the documentary Living with Michael Jackson on youtube. I could'nt get past to the last few parts because I got so fed up with his narrow-mindedness and ignorance that I closed the window). So back to the point. Michael Jackson brought orphans to NeverLand, where they play freely in the theme parks and find joy and laughter, which he himself derive more than anyone else' from the happy looks on their faces. Children were invited for sleepovers at his place, because it was safe, secure. But when news of him being a child paedophile arose after being charged by one of the kids who slept in his room, he ended up paying millions of dollars aside from being publicly humiliated and disgraced. because he did nothing disgraceful of that sort. because a few years later the kid owned up that it was his parents who made him to do, succumbed to the temptation of money, something which Micheal Jackson do not lacked. The father was tape-recorded discussing his intention to pursue charges, where he said, "If I go through with this, I win big-time. There's no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever ... Michael's career will be over". It was painful. Yet Michael still persisted, years later, in bringing less fortunate children to NeverLand, because that was more important to him. Even though the pain and hurt he had gone through had probably never healed. His strength is one of the reasons why I admire him so much. Then there was another incident, this time of him 'dangling' his baby over the window. 'omg he's crazy he wants to throw the baby down!!!!' maybe that's what it seemed like on tv and on papers, but what they didn't show is the crowd of fans below the hotel he's staying, yelling his name and wanting to also see his baby. So Michael showed them his baby, his hands wrapped under his baby's arms so tight and pulled him back as fast as he could. But what did the viewers see? A slowed-down version of him apparently dangling his baby in mid-air like a bad father. Its ignorance if people believed he was going to actually throw his own baby down the building. And at that time, I was one of the ignorant ones. I remembered looking at the pictures on some gossip magazine and felt slightly freaked out. But now I realise how much he loved his children, and how hard he tried to protect them from the media. And again, all these negative press and biasness probably was too overwhelming....how much pain can a person take? we would never know because we're not him, its hard to understand. But maybe all these people will leave him alone now, since he's already gone. I bought The Essential Michael Jackson cd, a compilation of hit songs by him. My dad and I watched his concerts and performances and music videos and we were more than in awe, in fact I think thats an understatement. Newfound respect and admiration for the man who was so creative and original, who dared to do things not commonly seen, creating dance steps while he sang at those times when most singers just stood there and sung. He thought of challenging and exciting music videos where people had never seen the injection of extra footage to create a kind of story. And not to mention those crazy vocals, coordinated dance moves, the famous moonwalk (I never get tired of it) and this amazing 45degree tilt he does which simply blows my mind away. It was all his signature style, the gloves, the crotch-grabbing whatever. Every single performance was done in class and so much more. He was an inspiration to people over the world, different races, and especially to African-Americans. He was an icon and also their pride. I can rattle on and on because there's too many things about him that are truly inspiring and simply awesome but sometimes words just cant fully express it. And yes maybe I do seem a little bias but this is what I truly feel. My only regret is that I have and will never get the chance to attend one of his mind-blowing concerts and be one of those lucky fans who felt the presence of Michael Jackson, the most successful entertainer of all time, the King Of Pop. 'Smile, even though your heart is aching.' This is one of the lyrics from his favourite song 'Smile', written by Charlie Chaplin and was sung during his memorial. I remembered someone said something like this during the memorial, 'Even though we need him here, but I guess God needed him more'. Even though we miss him so much, Heaven is probably the place he needs to be, away from any pain, suffering or cruelty. (rhymes!) He has already achieved so much and left behind a wonderful legecy that will pass down to generations after generations. Thank you Michael.
