say im a bird....


because im free.

free from all worldly constraints... free free FREE...

euphoria struck upon me on monday, 24th september, as i put my pen down in the examination hall filled with asians who had just undergone what might have been the worst 3 unit maths paper in the entire universe of the milky way.

omfg. its finished. over and out. done and dusted. EXAMS ARE history.

ive been bludging the past week, still went to school, tho it was pretty empty with the year 12s graduating and the rest of year 11s waging. school was still awesome. we talked to teachers casually. went into classes half an hour late coz we were eating cakes. ate the rest of the cakes in classes. and best of all, watched DR.WHO in english. which is a british series. which is so cooool. have i mentioned that i love mr nesbitt?

he's my english teacher and once he brought in the beatles, as a "related text" for our study poems. lol. yep. and he played random songs from the sixties which u all HAVE to listen to. songs like: Leader of the Pack by The Shangri-Las, Da Doo Ron Ron by The Crystals, River Deep-Mountain High by tina turner of course and.... they were just awesome lessons. go listen to them. now.


i watched 'breakfast at tiffany's' on thursday and fell in love with george peppard, the dreamiest man ever. cant believe i hadnt seen it before this. well, its alil slow for 21st century kids who are alot more into transformers. but still absolutely brilliant. next on my dvd list, my fair lady and saturday night fever... stayin alive for travolta ;) ive already seen some awesome movies the past week... troy and kill bill vol 1 & 2!!! kill bill kicks ass.. best movie ever

borrowed lots and lots of books from the library. yeh, nerd sensation. zomg i found this book to die for.





coolest book on cars ever written. im in love with it. tells u everything. up there is the chevie bel air 1957. bloody beauty. the amount of detail on each part puts shame to car designers today. honestly, cars today are like boxes on wheels. nothing refine, no imagination, no curves, no colours. my favourite.. cadillac convertible 1959, 42-inch fins, sidewall tyres, pink.



thats my stack for the holidays. i actually plan to do something this coming holidays. 2 weeks, devoid of worries. just me and my dvds and books. maybe a party or two. suppose to be out tonight. but couldnt get a fkin lift. damn transportation. we should all just be able to orb around. thus, a decrease in traffic, polution, and global warming.

i watched ratatouille yesterday. instead of stardust, i dunno why. my friends and i just spontaneously went for cartoon instead, but yeh.. it was cute. had some really clever bits in there and felt like i was really in paris. ;) and hairspray's good. but grease is better.

thats it. im off.

guess who's back?

the week after august was just brutal. the final exams were weighing on me and the intensity was just nonstop. assignments were aplenty; speeches, presentations, 1500 word essays, work, work, more work.
and maybe one more; WORK
it was no wonder my face was infested with lava-popping-volcanic-exploding-puss...
eew. im joking. thats disgusting. basically, i was stressed out and downing anything with sugar to release happy endorphins so i can deal with 3 weeks of sleepness nights to come.
i could barely contain my excitement as i crossed off my calendar (rather dramatically i might add) each day of examination i had struggled pass... and it wasnt until 2 hours ago that i realised i still have a blog. a pretty dead one im sure.
i seriously thought of deleting the blog. coz i thought it has been too long and too pointless. i seriously thought of abandoning this blog. pretend it never existed.
but i did not. and here i am. informing, writing, telling. =P and hopefully, i stay consistent this time. ill try my best. plus ++ holidays coming up!! 2 weeks yaaaay! im proud to say that i only have maths ext exam left which is on monday. fingers crossed i actually make an attempt in it.


me getting bored of studying on furniture. that was for english and probably every other subject. =)

so yes. anyway, moving on.... i BAKED an actual cake on monday. it was the most liberating. most exciting experience ever. and i want to do it again and again. baking of course. lol.
this holiday is going to be me, and the kitchen. making beautiful brownies, rocky road, muffins, and more cakes. wow. im actually doing girly stuff for once in my life.


kitchen loves me. i love u too.



mucus-ness. lol. i mean eggssssss

aunty alice the master of all chiffon cakes. and her apprentice.

the end product.. and it tasted awesome. watch out jamie oliver. here i come!

these few months have passed in a blur and ive just been so consumed in everything. i guess its been good keeping busy and in a way i feel lucky to be occupied. YAY i have a life. ive been meeting all these new ppl and they seem to be a great bunch.

tmrw's another day in the library for me. and my maths. but right now, its almost 1 am... and i really should get sleeping.

thats the updates. and hopefully the next time i blog would be when i actually do something interesting ;)

XOXO

( timbaland - baby if u strip u can get a tip cause i like u just the way u areeeee )
