I think I have this complex where if I haven't had tea (the way I like it, not disgustingly thick and bitter NJC tea) for two hours or so, my system becomes wonky and I get all groggy and down.

Xin, cheer up. Don't think so much about it k? Remember, your eyebrow's been twitching for ages. Something really, really good's gonna happen. :)

Apparently the one-and-a-half cups of caffeine I consume everyday (1/2 a cup in the morning, 1 cup at night) aren't enough to keep me awake. I'm falling asleep during lectures and tutorials and it scares me.

Found this in my guestbook:

is it that bad to have dance? how come you dont talk abt it much?

11:19 am - Saturday,April 24, 2004

Whoever it is probably wants to remain anonymous, but I'll address it anyway. In case you haven't realised, I don't blog much on anything. Meaning that most of the time if I go out shopping or to watch a movie or to play pool, it won't be in here. In the week before Dance Night I had dance every single day. I love Western Dance, but there's really no point in blogging the same thing everyday: School ended at 5, went for Dance, practised Lindy Hop, Hip Hop, Jazz, went home at 9. In the week after Dance Night, I didn't have dance practice at all till Friday. It lasted for all of 15 minutes. Blog-worthy? I think not. Where, in all of my entries, was it ever implied that it's bad having dance?

Good news: I passed NAPFA! No darned fitness test for another year, no remedial PE. :)

Bad news: I missed gold by 3cm! My standing broad jump seriously needs some work. And the stupid system was incredibly inefficient; it had all of us waiting there for ages. We took 2 hours to complete 5 items.

I have a perf at sentosa this sat. Wish me luck!

Yaaaaay. Managed to pass the 2.4km component of NAPFA. People aim to get A's but I dream of passing. Extremely pathetic, really. Oh, well. At least it's over. I won't have to retake it! :)

Just realised the pretty angel pic in my blog layout is gone. :( Will have to get a new template done. Or borrowed.

I bought a colouring book! Half of it's baby Taz (the tazmanian devil) and the other half is baby Lola Bunny. I seriously need some stress-relief. Colouring's good.

I *HEART* WESTERN DANCE! YOU PPL ROCK! Dance night was great. Thank you, everyone, for the flowers and stuff. :)

Went to coro for dinner with the dance ppl today after dance. (Dance ended early today! 7 plus! The sky was actually sort of a light bluish-purple colour when I walked out the gates!) And I saw jy&glen! In their pretty hc&rj uniforms. *sniff* I'll never get over sn ppl not wearing sn uniforms. Miss them much much. Oh! And met Edwin at the McRitchie bus stop just as I was getting off and he was getting onto 852. Such a small world.

It's Dance Night tmr. I'm kind of nervous. Okay, make that more than kind of nervous. What if I go splat on the stage? I'll be wearing a paper bag for the rest of my life.

Anyway, to SAND: Happy 17th Birthday! Hoho, don't worry, I still have 2 pieces of the choc left. I'll eat them tmr before the perf. :)

Just had 2 different class dinners 2 days in a row. Had a 4U reunion at ps cartel yesterday. Less than half the class turned up, but it was great nonetheless. Took loads of photos with the lovely people in their new jc uniforms. (If you all have uploaded it can you paste a link in my gb or sth? Thanks.) Love you all. 4U rocks.

Then today went to orchard swensens with the 1st intake 09 ppl. Again, less than half the class went, but had a fun time catching up with edwin kq yuqing. I miss the old 09. :(

4Unity class outing tmr! Can hardly wait. Plus tmr's a good day. No PE, no dance (for the first time in a long, long time), and my lessons start at 10.40. Yay!

09 is still together! Except for Hui Tian & Hui Yang, who decided to change combi, and Wei Jian, who for some reason got put into 5A. This news doesn't make me as happy as it would have a couple of weeks back. 09 isn't the same without the people who have left. Sounds cliched, I know, but it's like we're a body missing a limb. Or a really vital part. The brain or the small intestines or something.

We got the worst possible combination of teachers. I'm serious. We didn't have a nice combination of teachers to begin with, but I liked three of the six teachers we had. Now Mdm Yeo and Mr Yeo aren't teaching us anymore, and I'm no longer taking chinese, so I have no nice teachers. And we're stuck with Yong for physics. :( If I get back my econs and gp teachers, I'm going to hurl something at the wall. Hard.

I'm supposed to be mugging now! (I mean, I'm in full grey; I should at least adopt some of the nj characteristics.) Or at least catching up on my tutorials and lectures and stuff. All of which I don't understand and none of which I have done. Get me offline!
