Top 10 things I'd miss about Bush.

HOHO <3 MS!

I wanna

sing in front of millions, spend a month in Bali, be blond like Kate Hudson, marry Mike Shinoda, join the whale wars (or have that much passion for anything), try some mango beer, change a life, see Federer make a comeback, go to a rock concert with you, dive, catch the eclipse the next time it happens, get a tan, play Spot the Difference, have a drink with Hugh Laurie, be silly, wander the streets at midnight, learn to cartwheel, be best friends with Tina Fey, be involved in a car chase, go back to primary school, surf, try out for American Idol, ride horses, say something I'm going to regret, eat icecream, create art, hold a loved one tight, mingle with the sheep in New Zealand, figure you out, run away, try rapping, have perfect eyesight, get a dog, be hopelessly cool, have a picnic at the Versailles, backpack in India, and to trust, love and live.

Under the sea.

As of now, all I want to do is take that pen in front of me and continously jab my own throat so that it will stop making me cough. But, unfortunately, that will also kill me. So maybee not such a good idea.

OH. wait wait.

I want to be like Ariel in the Little Mermaid and let that crazy octopus lady take my voice box. Plus, my nose is so blocked I can no longer breathe through it so is that a clear indication that I'm living under water or what! I must be developing gills somewhere. And I haven't really felt the sun's warmth in so many days, I feel like I should stand at my window and sing 'Part of Your World' so that others would feel my pain. except that the crazy octopus lady would have already taken away my voice box.

all drama aside, appararently my mum's interpretation of independence is knowing when to run home for help when there is a need to. My interpretation of independence is NOT running home at every instant of illness. so as you can foresee, as soon as my mum found out, she forced me on a cab home and this was followed by a whole weekend of nagging.

I.just.want.soup.now.

Save now.

So today was Chingay's first full dress rehearsal and I'm all so super super super duper (haha) tired from this whole day of waiting. But it was nice, this so many months of repeating the same dance steps over and over again (even before rag) has been zzzzzz for so long and finally I could see what it was all for. And it's damn worth it :)

a couple things I learnt today, firstly that I really like to sew. haha. I never thought I'd love anything remotely resembling a chore and would live my days out as a taitai. but seriously sewing is pretty fun. so fun that I was risking my fingers helping Sunil sew on his bells on his costumes on a moving bus. this must be all part of growing old. there's also the part where we all kept gushing over the little kids performing in their little cute outfits.

and I'm beginning to see how love conquers all. because basically, once you're in, you two are the only people in the world. the rest are just, borrowing Daphne's words, scenery.

talking to zhiyuan for quite a while made me realise several things. darn I'm sad to go to his room and see only a laptop on the table and sheets on the bed. the rest of the room is just, empty. And we just have to accept all this coming and going in life. somehow we just don't realise the value of those that made an impact in our lives or taught us a few things until they're all gone. We might all write our thanks and love in a Christmas card, but really, how often do we really show it?

I know some things that only I know.
I know some things that you know that you shouldn't know.
I know you know some things that only I should know but you know them anyway.

eh guys, watch IP Man! SERIOUSLY HOU COOL.

Lei Hou!

Hmm I realised I haven't done a post to wrap up 2008 yet. And it's just not going to happen because the year has already passed (feels like quite long ago) and because I was on holiday my brain's just wuzzy from the hongkong smog. I don't know what I feel about hongkong, my brother hates it, my parents vow to never go back during peak period again. I kind of love it, and hate it at the same time. kind of how I feel about Singapore, except that I dislike Singapore so much more.

This year, I want to be bolder.

and I wished I had gone ahead and signed up for Stars then when people were asking. #$%^& Now I'm hooked on their songs. Waiting hadn't done me any good :(
