勇气
终于做了这个决定
别人怎么说我不理
只要你也一样的肯定
我愿意天涯海角都随你去
我知道一切不容易
我的心一直温习说服自己
最怕你忽然说要放弃

爱真的需要勇气
来面对流言蜚语
只要你一个眼神肯定
我的爱就有意义
我们都需要勇气
去相信会在一起
人潮拥挤我能感觉你
放在我手心里你的真心

One of my all time favourite Chinese songs (: Brings me back down the memory lane, I remember how the once naive me thought that I wasn't afraid of anything at all! Haha how this song proved me wrong. With this song, I attempted to join the Campus Superstar with Huixin when I was in Sec 2. On that stage, all energy and voice was somehow sapped out of me, leaving me with pure nervousness. I remember how I just couldn't sing a single note and how I felt so scared with so many pairs of eyes staring back at me, waiting for me to start singing. It was because of this song that I discovered that I have stagefright (yes, even up till today) and with this song, I buried the silly and unreachable dream of being a singer, of ever performing on stage. Haha.

I watched The Wedding Game today with my mum and my sisters. It was no doubt hilarious but I felt that it shouldn't be only rated as PG. Honestly, as I scanned the cinema theatre before the show began, there were lots of families and young children. The movie was simply full of sexual innotations and intimate scenes! At the very least, I felt that it should be rated NC16! Honestly, I wouldn't ever ever ever want to bring children to watch such a show.

We had lunch at Sakae Sushi after that. No buffet though, but we ate to our fill nonetheless. I was pretty disappointed in my mum and sisters. After we left Sakae, we hung around outside the stall while my mum checked the reciept. To her surprise, they didn't charge us for a couple of food items. I immediately told my mum to go back in and tell them. We should be honest and pay up! I was dismayed when she hesitated, and a reluctant look surfaced. My sister outrightly mocked me for "acting good"?! I was so pissed please. Here I was, doing my best to live a righteous and shining life as a Christian, to be a good testimony worthy of God. Yet, there was my own sister taunting me for being good. It wasn't even being good. She was taunting me for "acting good". How infuriating! I wasn't even acting!!! In anycase, my mum went back and told them and they charged her accordingly.

Well, out of this little incident, I actually had a tiny taste of what being persecuted was like. A very tiny taste of what Jesus and the disciples had gone through in the past. And all the other martyrs. I really respect them for standing by their faith even to the point of death. I wonder, if I should ever have to make such a decision, would I too, stand by Christ and my faith? Or would I fall, like Peter, who denied Jesus three times? Heavenly Father, help me to stand strong.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVERYONE! ;D
& collecting all the hong baos :D

Anyway, I've been too busy (really! I wasn't lazy!!!) to update. Since the completion of my LA assignment, I have done... Practically nothing for constructive schoolwork. ))): I am still left with the same amount of assignments left. I ought to be really pressed for time yet... Here I am, blogging away. Ah wells.

Anyway, since last week, I've been troubled, deeply, about both fencing and hmss exco positions. It's really vexing and hard to choose between the both. However thank God that as I seeked His will for me, He laid a burden in my heart to pick fencing exco. He gave me a reason I could never say no to. Fencing has a lot less Christians (if I'm not wrong, I'm the only one in exco :/) and I need to shine there. Not that hmss doesn't need another shining light, but somehow I felt a burden to shine in fencing. After all, it's also the only other reason why I stayed on in Fencing despite the numerous sprains and twisted ankles suffered this year. Well the other's obviously passion. I really love fencing! ;D

I feel so guilty towards Alicia! She called me during hmss exco meeting (which I skipped and went for fencing's instead) and I was on my way home. And once I answered she started rambling on and on about the positions available in hmss exco in an animated and excited voice! I had no choice but to go "um...". For a moment she thought she was disturbing me and I was busy but then I confessed that I had something to tell her. I told her I got into fencing exco and I may have to pull out from hmss exco. I FEEL SO GUILTY ): Alicia, if you ever read this, I want to apologize a million times over! I didn't mean to drop the bomb on you like this but... I had no choice. It was either then or later. Might as well get it done and over with, so that you can still find a person who is able to commit and handle the post better than I can. Oh mann, I really really really want to stay on in hmss exco. It feels like such a privilege to get in when out of so many who had apply, I got it. ))): Well Alicia said that she'll get back to me so... We'll see how again. As of now, my position in hmss exco's like, pending or something I think. ://

Ohoh! On Wednesday my friend told me my eyes were pretty! During the fencing exco meeting. Haha, he suddenly stared into my eyes and asked if I was wearing contacts. I'd figured he thought I was wearing coloured contacts so I told him I was wearing contacts but not coloured ones :D Then he said my eyes were pretty! Thank You God! For giving me a pair of pretty hazel brown eyes! :D

I hope there are girls in fencing exco! On wednesday during the fencing exco meeting I was the only girl. ))): Dear God, please give me a fellow Christian girl companion in fencing exco! Or else I might just die... ))):

Had SYFC subcore meeting on Thursday evening. As a result, I had to miss fencing training ))): Sianz. Well, next subcore meeting's on Germaise's & Rui Jing's birthday! I'll try to rearrange it for some other day? :// Ah wells.

Samantha bought the Twilight series! Okay I'm sharing with her but still. Haha, I started to reread the Harry Potter series today! ;D

I MISS GOOD BOOKS <333

There are so many books I wanna read! The time traveller's wife, I want to continue with the series of the travelling pants, the other book by Khaled Hosseini etc etc. :// So little time! ))):

I HAVE FINISHED MY LA ASSIGNMENT!!! LALALA! :DDD heh, too happy le. It feels so good finishing assignments! I'm only left with FP for individual and GISP and a little of CA. ;D Ganbatte Ikimsshoi! ;D

Went for polympics yesterday morning. FUNNN! Hahaha NP's like super high and we totally won the prizes. RP had this face painting thingy and they looked like they were going for war!!! Somemore it's the black and green paint! Crazy but cool lah :D

SABRE MEN'S TEAM WON SILVER! CONGATULATIONS TO TEAM M! :DDD Hahaha!

Went to Vivo to watch Ponyo in the evening :D Saw Kenneth there. Sam, Cat and I shopped around and I saw a top and a dress that I like! The dress is a demure brown and makes me look sweet ;D The top's a blue stripped buttonless blouse ( finally! one without buttons :D ) buta little translucent. Gotta wear tube inside. I must save money this week! Then I can buy both next weekend. If they're still there.

Went for a facial today! :D Relaxing :D But! I never realised that my skin had uneven tone, oil seeds (whatever they are) and etc etc. I've always thought that my skin's condition was good!!! ))): Well, went to give tuition after that and then played captain's ball with the youths near wanxin's house. Bought my cleanser on the way home and then daddy sent my sisters and I home ;D Okay, I'm off to shower already! :D

GYMING TOMORROW! I feel so healthy! Haha. Captain's ball today, gyming tomorrow, fencing on tues, thurs and sat! HMSS exco meeting on wed and sgl meeting on fri. WOAHHH, BUSY WEEK AHEAD! Thank God I've finished most of my assignments! There's still LINK though. Printing on Fri. Ahhh.

This post has been edited :// censored. haha.

The Sabre girls didn't win anything this time round at Novices too. I could tell they were really disappointed, especially Wenbing. I think it's 'cause there's a high chance she won't be able to compete next year since she has attachment. :// Anyway, watching them fence puts me in the nervous mood. Maybe it's all 'cause I keep imaging next year it'll be me up on the piste, fully suited up, fencing some unknown opponent from some other part of Singapore. That is gonna be SO SCARY. :// Haha Wendy and Wenbing wanted to fence for Women's Sabre Team next Sat, so they roped the 2 Epee girls, Singyi and Catherine in. Haha just for fun. Oh mann, part of me wish that I can be part of the team, even taking part in Novices too. Though I'll probably freak out. And my ankle would probably die halfway through the bout. Ah wells. I can just pray that God will give me the chance next year! Meanwhile, I wanna train myself up and get fitter. GYM! Haha, somewhere I must go SOON.

1st day back at school. I spent the whole of last night chionging my CA project! And to think, the printers at school today conked up. All the printers were jamming and lagging like mad! I paid for all the printing jobs and yet, NOT A SINGLE PIECE OF PAPER CAME OUT. I must complain soon! So frustrating and irritating! I was almost late for LA lecture. And there was a quiz during LA lecture! I think I did pretty badly ): Considering how unprepared I was today, there were a couple of questions I didn't know how to do. ): Ah wells. I've got to leave it all in God's hands.

Anyway. I really want to get back to doing QT regularly. It's been on and off for a while now already... ):

Seow Chin came to NP today! Haha and Priscilla, Jieling and I shared a table with her during lunch. She ended up interpreting our character through our signatures. Haha, she was half right and half wrong about Jieling. She was pretty shocked at my signature though. Haha, I'm apparently not who she thinks I am. Well, she's pretty right in that sense. I am pretty private. (: Unimaginable, is it? Haha, Seow Chin says I'm not just who I appear to be. There's more to me than what you all see! ;D

I need to finish LA individual project asap, by friday! And CDEV individual component asap too!FP individual project too! Ah. So many projects to do! Thank God my group's 90% done with both CA group projects! ;D

Alrighty, lazy to post anymore. Not like I've got anymore to post anyway. I'm super enthusiastic for fencing now! It must be all the Novices competitions getting to me! Haha.

Went to support NPF people who were taking part in Novices '09. The atmosphere was pretty tensed, it was an eye-opener for me. Kinda sad that Men's Sabre Individual didn't take anything this year. BUT IT'S OKAY! What matters is that you've all given your best! Continue to strive on, sabre guys! There's still team event next Saturday. Women's Foil Individual and Men's Epee Individual were also held today. But I don't know about their results. I didn't hang around to hear. I hope they did well! Haha.

Haha I'm super into Ponyo now. Having been introduced to it by Wenbing and Wendy, I have just realised how cute she is! Hahaha! I wanna watch lah! THE SONG IS SO CUTE!

Romaji Version
Gake no Ue no Ponyo

I MUST ASK REI TO TRANSLATE THIS FOR ME! Hahahaha!

It has been a busy past few days. The fencing open house booth and all! Although I'm not in-charge, but ah wells. Still did what I could to help out. Haha. Then on friday, there was the main committee interview. Mine was postponed from Tuesday to Friday 'cause there wasn't enough time on Tuesday. Haha, they asked me what were my top 3 choices for the posts in the committee. I really think publicity sounds fun so that was my top choice, head amourer's second 'cause it's basically something that I did before so... It should be relatively okay to handle. Treasurer's my last 'cause I don't like the rest of the positions! HAHAHA.

Rushed down to Crescent for the Sec One Orientation Campfire after that. By the time I got there, the campfire's about 3/4 through. -.- All thanks to the late ending of the interview and the traffic jams. Haha I went there to sing taps only. Haha caught up with a couple of teachers and friends. It was nice to be back in Crescent. I really do miss it in a special way. It holds lots of memories for me, fond ones and others alike. Haha, how I miss donning the yellow and peacock blue uniform, rushing to and fro classes between the classroom blocks and science labs and the spiral staircase! Haha. Oh the joy of it all, and the aunties always chasing us out of the classrooms when 6pm comes! And the from morning to night study sessions in the library and all the consultations! Indeed, I do miss it all. I suppose even the most dreaded mass runs! I feel so fat without them now )): HAHAHA.

Alrighty, gotta go sleep soon! Buena noches ;D

I AM OFFICIALLY IN LOVE WITH MY NEW BLOGSKIN. AND MY NEW LAPTOP SLEEVE! <3

Hahaha. I can't stop opening my internet explorer just to view my blogskin! Hahaha, silly, I know, but still! Heh, and I can't stop glancing at my oh-so-delicious-looking and gorgeous laptop sleeve! Haha. Oh yeah. And if you're wondering why there are so little links on my blog, it's because I've decided to take away those I rarely visit and the links no longer exist. So if you would like me to visit your blog, please kindly tag and leave your link. I will then consider whether or not to link you. Haha just kidding lah. I'll try to update my links asap. ;D

Haha I just realised the irony of my last blogskin. It was about shouting unto God and telling the world about Him and yet, my blog address is everything in silence. How ironical.

Finally felt healthier by going for training today. Though it wasn't exactly intensive since most of the seniors were practicing free fencing for novices. My footwork's seriously terrible. I really need to work very very very hard on it. The interviews took such a long time that they ate into the training time. In the end, my turn was postponed. Some say the posts are confirmed, some say not. I really don't know what to expect or even hope for. On one hand I would like to get the post, leadership's something I'm used to having since being in Crescent. On the other... sometimes I just feel like slacking? Ah no way mann, Cassandra you better not slack! Okay fineee. I'll hope for the post then. Anyway, I don't want to let Wenbing down, she told me she fought hard for me...

Some AIA guy tried to sell me this savings cum insurance plan today. Sounds cool and feasible, I'm actually considering it. But I still have some questions so I want to clear them first before I decide whether to buy or not.

I'm hoping real hard that I don't have to go down for guides sec 1 orientation campfire rehearsal. Kinda lazy seeing as I'll probably be wanting to go for training tomorrow and learn some fencing tips. Hmm but then again. Haha ah wells, I don't know. Haven't really decided yet. Not like the rehearsal's gonna be truck loads of fun.

Going gyming tomorrow morning with Latifah and maybe even Tammie! Haha EXCITED mann! First time I use the gym facilities. Gonna be quite cool I think.

I FINISHED GISP TODAY!!! WHOO HOO! :DDD I'm so happy lah, one assignment down, 6 more to go! GANBATTE IKIMASSHOI CASSANDRA! :D

I need to start on LA individual real soon. And finish up CA individual real soon too. Haha. Alrighty, think I'll go and finally finish up writing my Christmas cards!

Adious people :D

NEW BLOGSKIN! <3

Haha, finally decided to change after a gazillion million years. I've always thought that it'll take me 10 years or something to properly change a blogskin. To my surprise, it was a mere hour or so only. Haha :D

Well, today's a late day. Woke up late, so Jieling and I didn't study in the morning in the end. Heh, lazyyy. Then got to school late for group project with Rui Jing. She was pissed lah, I could tell. We apologised like mad. Haha. Almost done for the Creative Arts group assignments! :D Yay, so happy!

Went to canteen 2 for lunch, Rui Jing was gushing over some invisible handsome chicken rice seller! Hahaha, I only saw an auntie and an ah pek there! BUT THE CHICKEN RICE'S REAL GOOD AND CHEAP! Haha I didn't know canteen 2 had such a treasure! Went to atrium and I attempted to complete my elearning homework. Alas! I was distracted by blogs and msn :D Haha, and so I only did Language Arts. Went to meet Weisheng and Robin for SYFC meeting at Kou fu. IT IS SO PRETTY! And oh my goodness, there's SUBWAY <3! And even waffletown! Cool or cool! Even better than Mcdonald's! Hahaha! But by then I still wasn't hungry and so I only drank an ice chocolate -nice as well! Heh. Skipped BGC since Priscilla and Jieling and Shurong didn't feel like going. SIANZXZX.

And today, finally, my cashbook's total savings component will not be negative anymore! Because I paid off my debts! :D

Fencing interview tomorrow. For the post of publicity in the main committee. I was so shocked when Wenbing told me! I didn't think I'll get a post, and she said she fought hard for me 'cause she thinks I'm friendly and sociable and can handle the job. I didn't think I was friendly and sociable in fencing! I've always felt like a loner there 'cause I barely speak. If that's what she thinks is friendly and sociable... Hahaha, she hasn't seen me in class and in church and in SYFC. THAT'S WHERE I'M FRIENDLY AND SOCIABLE, or at least I feel like I am. :D

Haha okay, time for bed, I still have field practicum tomorrow morning. Adious dear ones. :D

Skipped training today again. I have to do something about the Saturday trainings. I just can’t seem to wake up. Argh. Anyway, after doing lunch with my mum, sisters and grandpa, I went to Causeway Point to look for Outfitter Girls to look at the rainbow dress and top that I liked so much. They happily moved away and I was left to roam about Causeway Point aimlessly. Thank God though! I found another nice purple and black dress! Hmm. I wonder, is dark purple my colour or something? Upon reflection, I now realise that this is the third purple dress I have. Someone kill me. I’ll probably turn into Barney soon. Well, popped by Jilane’s house to give her tuition. Was supposed to head home for dinner but... Ah well, things had to happen. Frustrated, I didn’t want to go home. Phoned around and thank God Sheena was free for dinner. Bought take away from Lot One and popped by her place to eat and share long stories. HAHAHA! She introduced this website, www.karaokeparty.com to me! It’s hilariously fun! HAHAHA! I totally want to hear chicken, cow and even puii sing to it! Wonder how many green bars they’ll get, and how many points! HAHAHA! That cheered me up quite a bit. I started singing to all the people who called up Sheena. Some Joshua guy, her junior Fang something and so on. HAHAHA! It helped a great deal! Thank you Sheena Lim Enhui! Heh. Well. I’m almost completing my Christmas cards. I think I’m gonna scrape writing for BGC people. Sianzxzx diao le. I don’t feel like it any longer.

I hope I’ll be able to sleep tonight. Gotta shower first. Smelly me rushed home to rush Christmas cards and then got hooked onto Pokemon Yellow. Haha. Internet wasn’t available you see. Or else I would have gone on to Neopets. Ah games. ;D Adious everyone.

New year. 2009's finally arrived. Joy? Hope? Love? Haha, I don't know. I wonder what this new year brings along with it. Awaiting. That's the only thing.

1st voice I heard: TAN PEIYI'S. Her whines to get me out of bed, or rather, Germaise's sofa.
1st face I saw: TAN PEIYI'S too. -.- Lovely.
1st movie I watched: TWILIGHT! Haha and it was the 3rd time I was watching. <3
1st thing I bought: A pair of havanians slippers. A slightly strange colour - silvery grey, but it grows on me :D
1st thing I ate: Lays classic for breakfast. Healthy.

Haha, it was a fun 1st day of the new year nonetheless. Wanted to post on thanksgivings for '08, but ah wells, shall see how :D See how my mood's like.

2nd day of the new year. & I'm stuck in school studying, bogged down with assignments. Exciting life I've got. :D

I'm currently hooked onto this song: (Heard it from the baseball scene of TWILIGHT :D)

Supermassive Black Hole - Muse

Oh baby dont you know I suffer?
Oh baby can you hear me moan?
You caught me under false pretenses
How long before you let me go?

You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

I thought I was a fool for no one
Oh baby I'm a fool for you
You're the queen of the superficial
And how long before you tell the truth

You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

Heh. The baseball scene's my absolute fave. It's just too cool lah! The swift movements, the incredible speed of the Cullens, the precise crash as the thunder clapped... It's just... Woah :D I simply love it! Haha, and the cool way they play baseball :D
