    THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM

    hooked onto that song now
    especially the american idol version sung by kelly clarkson diana fantasia and ruben

    To dream the impossible dream,
    to fight the unbeatable foe,
    to bear with unbearable sorrow,
    to run where the brave dare not go...


    met ron and steph for lunch after their extra lessons at sch
    didnt bother to go for the extra lessons
    cos it wasnt compulsory for me! :)
    ate crepes and cream
    it was my first time and i think the food there aint that great..
    'cept for the ice creams and deserts
    was supposed to meet jo-tong too but she didnt finish math lect till 1-ish
    thank gawd i didnt go for the extra lessons!

    anyway still had to go back to sch for ltc breifing
    didnt know what the hell they wanted to tok to us about for 3 hrs
    went 10 mins late
    and by then everyone was seated and bro paul started toking alreadi
    he went on and on about leadership
    was trying hard to pay attention but soon his words became juz sounds
    then they broke us into our groups
    my group consists of all the htcs from classes of multiples of 3s
    eg: 3, 6, 9, 12...
    and mr tan j.s. is our teacher i/c
    our group name is N(subscript)2 as in the nitrogen molecule
    cos it sounds like enthu - short for enthusiasm
    smart huh!
    hahs!
    some other groups came up with wierd french sounding names which mr tan had the hardest time pronouncing which was utterly hilarious!
    my group not bad lah.. alot of gurls.. quite fun
    played some get to noe each other games like arranging oursleves according to ascending b-daes without toking.. longest hair ( and i realised i am the only one with a pony-tail in that group).. biggest feet
    we were also briefed on what to bring
    and on the "what to bring list" states white tee
    so someone asks can we bring other coloured tees
    the ans was no
    someone asks why
    and the ans was we are gonna play water games
    *irony*

    then we were supposed to make our "identity" as in customised name tags for our group
    so we decided to go down to popular to get the stuff needed to make it
    and i kaypo say i can go cos anyway i also wanted to go there to get some materials to make my drama anthology
    end up only a few of us went
    and all of a sudden we were goin to the popular at toa payoh!
    i mean i was thinking of orchard!
    anyway it was too late to back out so juz went

    made loads of noise deciding on what to do like the colours shapes and style
    decided on black paper and pink fabric paint with glitter
    and guess what i also ended up with the task to write the names and laminate it .. i guess becos i was toking too much

    met ron later at orchard
    went to popular again to get my own stuff
    and then had dinner at kfc
    then walked around and bought a few nick knacks
    saw rauda and izyan
    they told me they sat the harry potter bus
    and i didnt belief them till they showed me the card!
    ahha cant belief they actually haf a harry potter bus!

    my day started at town and ended at town

    If I reach deep within my heart
    Overcome any obstacle

    See I strive to be the very best
    Shine my light for all to see
    Cause anything is possible
    When you believe yeah

    I can see it in the stars up in the sky
    Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
    Now I finally realize
    I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive
    And finally I believe

    GREATEST LOVE OF ALL

    argghhh my fav song rite now is the greatest love of all!
    of course due to the influence of ami!
    hais finally sch is out!
    so tired of test cca and bascially the idea of sch
    plan to get some rest during the hols.. sleep in and pig out!
    but first i gotta get past drama exam first

    completed gp and chinese listening today
    a load of my shoulders!
    did qn 1 about what qualities must a good leader have in a democracy
    used all i learnt in julius caesar
    so it was quite alright
    but then came paper 2
    screwed up for summary and AQ
    really stoned for AQ...

    went to orchard with ron b4 chinese listening
    wanted to eat long jons but it was closed
    so resorted to bk for 2 packs of hash brown
    then ya kun for ice coffee
    while i was TRYING to read thru some gp family notes
    but of course nothing bout it came out

    after gp lisa was so cute!
    she had to carry a whole load of books back in a box
    and she was complaining that she would look like such an idiot carrying the box across the bridge
    so ron made a deal with her
    if she could balance a book on her head from the stairs to the gate he would help her carry it across
    and she actually did it !
    hahs! amazing!

    later went to town again with the whole jing gang
    to lazy to name out all
    hahaha
    went to pac plaza to get a shirt for chng's bdae
    then borders to get a card and then went to lido to eat
    found a really cool deserted place juz like the one at paragon
    then came home with belloc
    and i had to run through my whole lane cos there was lightning
    and i'm like really afraid of lightning when i am in open space
    first time cjc pe did me any good

    went to airport to fetch my daddy back!
    love the airport!
    gives me a feeling of some kind
    like a really warm feeling somehow!
    ahhaha
    the arrival hall was filled with hapiness children laffing and getting all excited to see the father or mother returning!
    at the airport i had a suddenly got the idea of being an air stewardess
    wonder if my height is acceptable..
    i think it would be so fun travelling .. but it could be tiring too
    anyways my mum said that its a lousy job.
    and my daddy brought back pringles for me from china!
    i tell u he is crazy!
    and now my mom is saying how she which casper would learn to pee in the toilet bowl so we need not clear the newspaper so often
    but i doubt it will ever happen considering how long we took to toilet train him!

    ACHAR!

    today was ultra slack but tiring in a way
    had to stay back for pw block period
    spent most of the time slacking in the canteen and library
    lina and lee pin my grp members were sick
    leaving me evan and lisa to do the work
    surprisingly ms teh was impressed with our research done in 3 hrs
    and actually said that our group was promising! haha

    gp period mr glasgow was talking bout mass media and the effects of it on children
    so mr glasgow said something like" if i pointed a gun at jolynn wat would she do?"
    and jolynn being our class porn* i said "she'll strip"
    it was freaking funny the whole class laffed non stop.

    jason was showing off his boxers and then his fren mark passed by and mark also showed off his boxers and said that they wanted to wear the same boxers another day n show it off together.retards.

    got caught by tan j.s while visiting t31
    i was about to enter the class when he walked out
    so i walked away really quickly
    then i heard " walk faster walk faster"
    pretended i didnt hear and continued walking
    but in the end he called me and caught me for my sox
    and my earrings .dang.

    after sch went to long jons with jotong(jolynn the sotong)
    walked around . perfume testing.roxy.ripcurl.quiksilver.mango.topshop.
    ooohh and i wanna get a reef slipper!!!
    jolynn was supposed to go for her 1st 3 mths class gathering
    but then was hesitant
    so while she was deciding walked around more
    then as i was walking to the mrt
    my math tutor called to cancel
    and he is soooo sneaky!
    he nv admits that he is the one that wants to cancel tuition
    he went:" tessa today do we haf lesson or not huh?"
    and so i said yes
    then he said " oh i thot dun haf leh and i got an appointment"
    wth! i mean if u cant make it or lazy juz tell me str8 dun need to ask such dumb qns!
    but then was quite hp that i was not gonna haf tuition so i could do more shopping with jolynn
    met tricia trina and manya

    arhhhs tomoro got old folks home.. dun feel comfortable there man... barely able to speak to them and i feel as though they look at us in disgust... somehow... hahas maybe its juz me!

    DOES THE CARAMEL COFFEE HAVE CARAMEL IN IT?

    asked the starbucks gal this dumb qn
    felt like a total fool after that
    i think this is one of the ill effects of hanging out with jolynn too much. ahhaha
    anyway wanted to try their new drink but they keep advertising their caramel one and i hate caramel . and i didnt noe that they had a plain coffee one
    so my qn was could they make one without caramel thats all

    shit my shin is hurting
    its been going on for sometime but the pain was bearable
    so was ignoring it
    but after running today the pain worsened
    so planning to go see a doc this tues ( its a 5.10 day!)

    ooh met sheila on the streets while on our way to get jave's butterfly balloon!
    walked all the way from far east to centre point to get this pink and purple balloon saying happy birthday and it is decorated with butterflies and hearts!

    GETTING THE KICK OUT OF LIFE,LIVING THROUGH OTHERS

    that's wat some ppl without a life are doing.. coming up with weird ideas about wat other ppl are doing with their life...and getting all excited about it.. the real hard fact is that no one else cares!

    my com is FINALLY repaired so i am like super :)

    today sch was so slack
    had chem tut.math tut.break.chem lect.
    then left for THE chinese high for drama syf
    cj did quite well
    it was a scene in a mental institution
    where even the nurse was a little cranky!
    the message brought across was that
    sometimes the ppl in the outside world ( as in not in the mental institution) are more zanged up then the ppl in the institution
    the ppl in there are more humble and down to earth and they dare to be different..and that the ppl from the outside world bother too much about what others think of them!
    hcjc did super well!
    although it consisted of only 5 girls and 5 stools as props
    it totally entertained me!
    it was like a "girl" themed performance
    super fun.
    talked bout the normal conflicts or problems in a females life..
    like their marriage.. their weight or dieting.. their partner.. waiting for an important call and the society
    AND GUESS WHO WAS ONE OF THE JUDGES. . . .
    NORLINA! haha she actually recognised me and said hi!
    saw jia yan also.. mj drama was there too!

    after that made my way to orchard to meet kenny ron lis and steph where we went to borders to read mags then went to coffee club to "study" did very little of that lah.. crapped around mostly!

    AMI starting now!!!

    LET'S KEEP SWIMMING

    my gawd
    voting for the sc has started
    today there was a short 30s presentation and a Q&A session
    totally hilarious!
    this guy kept asking the whole sc if they can act as good role models
    then sc asked him wat his definition of role model is
    he said the pope..
    and it juz went on and on about role model!
    then there's the this issue bout publicity- if the sc's-to-be were doing it for popularity
    then some said that they were not enthusiastic when presenting themselves
    basically i feel that in this sorta thing everyone will haf their own opinions and will find fault with everything that they do
    but some ppl juz gotta understand that no matter how much u hate a person
    u still gotta admit he has leadership quality
    i was also quite tired of ppl saying that they wanna join counicil yo serve god, the sch, the students, be our voices and stuff.. i mean more conviction can!?

    today also had a skit by the necessary stage about family
    enjoyed it !

    CHEM SPA today
    mr chiam was in charge of my group
    wat luck i have man
    had him for 1st 3 mths
    he made me shiver then
    and he still has the same effect on me.
    when i was filling up my burette i was like so scared cos he was eyeing me so closely lah!

    CANT THINK OF A PARTICULAR TITTLE

    felt so phreaking sick in the morning
    like my head was super heavy
    even thot of going home
    but after eating got betta!

    after sch went to eat long jons with jav jason jo [the jayers]
    lOls.
    then went with jolynn to bugis street to look for a bag
    but on the way we got seperated as jo entered the mrt and b4 i could enter the mrt the doors closed we laffed like MAAAAAAAAAD i tell u!
    its like an oven at bugis street man
    so stuffy in there esp with our air-proof uniform!
    then shopped at bugis for awhile then went for drama

    well during drama
    ms keat wanted us to hit panic button
    as we were 3 weeks away from the exams and we werent exactly ready yet
    ended quite late then came back the finale of survivor!

    A-M-B-E-R won
    i would rather rob win
    cos i felt he played with more wit
    so thot he deserved it more
    but since he proposed to amber during the reunion on national tv [which was sooooo sweet] i guess no difference who wins anymore
    cos they would be sharing their win anyways

    GOD PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE

    have been MIA on my blog for over a week!
    not only have i been kinda busy and tired with school
    my com is majorly screwed up as in like totally lagging!
    as in when i click something it would take 10 secs to register what i clicked !
    so yeah havent been using the com for that reason!
    and the problem hasnt been solved so gonna take awhile to type everything!

    roll back on the past week or so. . . .

    SATURDAY 24 APRIL

    today was the speak good english campaign performance at the arts house near vic theatre! had practice at my drama centre before that and realised that we werent exactly prepared! couldnt rememeber some of our lines and stuff so all of us kinda got worried and started panicking.. so in the taxi on our way there we were memorising like mad! we then huddled to practice our lines together outside e arts house and it actually worked!none of us forgot our lines! so relieved! ohhh and also found out today that ms keat my drama teacher has a phobia of clowns .. not exactly phobia but juz a fear !haha it was damn funny! at the arts house there were clowns blowing balloons and entertaining the children...i was walking with her then she started walking mega fast so i was wondering what was the hurry.."i'm scared of clowns" ...i juz burst out laffing and ppl started looking at me... i mean how can a grown adult be afraid of clowns!

    after the performance went to town with mabel and harrold where they ate macs while i waited to meet bekka von jav and ron to watch 50 first dates!finally everyone arrived but ron left half way... belloc came too! well basically we couldnt get tix for 7 plus show so me and jav couldnt watch but the rest caught the 9 plus show! so after much discussion and disagreement we finally decided to eat at kfc.. crapped alot there! haha.. was sooo pissed that i didnt get drumsticks [the only chicken part i eat] and got some other funny part instead.. was singing the chinese version of falling in love with you but changed the words and it even made sense.. then somehow someone started to say that i date the deaf, the mute and the blind because only the deaf can take my singing , the blind cannot see how i look like and the mute cannot tell me to shut up! haha and it became even funnier when a mute man came to our table to sell us something.. the rest were urging me to support my "boyfrens" .. and we also found out that kfc was the ambassodor for the deaf .. so tyco rites!?? :)

    SUNDAY 25 APRIL

    couldnt wake up early for mass today... was too tired!
    so planned to go for the 6 pm mass after the performance...
    i felt that today's performance was not as good as yesterdays because a kid’s balloon suddenly burst which put most of us in a giggling fit and lost concentration… but it was still good overall!
    went to parkway after that to meet my mum before going for mass but after a while started to feel a little sick.. like I’m on cloud 9 or something.. very weird feeling I must say.. my dad said that I was juz finding an excuse to not go for mass.. so in the end went home to rest … felt a lot better later in the night!

    MONDAY 26 APRIL

    juz another day at school only that we had a mother tongue lecture where there was a chinese play and where some ppl sang qing tian by jay chou! listening to the song now!


    TUESDAY 27 APRIL

    did the 5 items test for pe today.. kinda happy cos got a for everything.. but still failed 2.4 (by 30 secs!) so still stuck with mass pe! supposed to have drama practice but my teacher fell ill so cancelled!

    WEDNESDAY 28 APRIL

    received our drama tees during drama today! esther designed it and I think it is one of the nicest self-designed tees I have come across! we had to come up with a short skit again today.. so as we were coming up with ideas I decided to tell a joke .. something that has been going around cj .. or at least my class who have taken lameness to a whole new level..

    one day in a mental instituition a doctor decides to see if any of his patients have recovered and if he could release some of them.. so he drew a door on the wall with the door knob and key hole and everything else to make it seem like a real door. he then told the patients that they could leave if they could open that door.. all the patients rushed to it! trying to turn the door knob .. banging on the door .. slamming themselves against the door.. but there was this one guy who juz stood at the corner looking at the rest of the ppl as if they were mad.. the doctor thought that he might have recovered so went up to talk to him
    DOC: why arent you rushing with them to open the door
    PATIENT: (looking as if the doctor asked him a dumb qn) how are they suppose to escape when I am holding the key to the door?


    yup so decided to act that scene out .. it was quite fun.. another group acted out charmed and it was hilarious!

    later went to town with ferly .. went to eat long jons and there were like a whole bunch of youngsters there smoking their life away! and we were saying how kuai we were compared to them and all!

    THURSDAY 29 APRIL

    FRIDAY 30 APRIL

    short short day! went to school at 9.15 for singing practice – the songs we plan to sing when we go to the old folks home next sat .. we practiced 3 songs L-O-V-E , stand by me and lean on me.

    L-O-V-E
    L is for the way you look at me
    O is for the only one I see
    V is very very extraordinary
    E is even more than anyone that you adore
    Love is all that I can give to you
    Love is more than juz a game for two
    Two in love can make it
    Take my heart and please don’t break it
    Love was made for me and you


    After sch went to watch 50 first dates.. it was alright,, very funny and the things that adam sandler had to do were really touching!
