hehe.. it's wednesday.. but it feels like it's a thursday cos i stayed back in skool till 5.30 even though i got dismissed at around 11.30am..

after skool, we went our separate ways such that june and sheryl went to do the class noticeboard decoration while yiting, jialing, shaoqin and i went to the canteen cos i was starving and i wasnt supposed to starve myself.. den eat finish, sq went home cos she got a slight fever, den amelia and the rest of us went up to the hall to play piano.. den we saw that the guys were playing tennis in the hall too! haha.. great minds think alike. den from1pm play until 2 plus.. den meanwhile, cherie came up. after a while, we went to help the peeps in the deco.. den sheryl and amelia went for netball while june went for her bowling.. we folded alot of cranes and fishes! A LOT. den we went back to the classroom cos before that, pple were having lessons in the classroom.. after alot of linking the cranes together and such, i cut out "o5S13" in styrofoam.. now starting to have rashes.. kinda allergic to that stuff. but the results were okae.. they found the "0" veri cute.. haha..

low energy

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...........! so tired.........

you realise something? it feels so much better to simply press on a key on your keyboard for a veri long time and have such a resultttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt, rather than typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing non-stop.

yesterday, i ran. today, i WALKED. first, we sat on a bus. the bus brought us to orchard. went to subway to eat food. cherie bought ham sandwich which is 6 inches long and paid $2.90, or izzit $3.90. aiyar, nvm.. now here's the interesting part: yiting bought a sandwich which was ONE FOOT LONG and she paid $8.90.. hahahahahaha, she ate the whole thing and we were joking that she finally ran finish her 2.4km run.. den i pointed to jialing that she only ran 1.2km since she only ate the half foot long sandwich..

okae, now here is the reason why i walked so much, or else i wont be so tired. intend to jump onto my bed and snore my head off [if i do snore] once i finish blogging.

note: we dropped at far east PLAZA. we went up the escalator to the fourth storey only to find out that we were supposed to go to fareast SHOPPING CENTRE. you know how much difference there are!?!?!? cherie!!!!!!! thanks for letting me have the chance to walk so much! but nvm, we had the chance to finally take a pic of our reflection on the escalator mirror thingy. veri nice!!

den we walked around.. from far east plaza to wheelock place to far east shopping centre den to taka den to the mrt station.. i spotted a new book released by judith mcnaught!!!! the book cover is so hard and so nice!!! BUT, the book costs $36.75 [inclding GST]. my heart chilled. went to art friends again! oh yar, i first went to the bras basah outlet last last sat.. today, i go to the orchard one!! both are GREAT!! it's a paradise sia... can never get bored of the stuff there.

budden once i reach home, i felt like my legs got misplaced. they were aching sooooooooooooooo much.... and my eyelids are sooooooooooo heavy. tmw how!? how to get up off bed on time!? i am gonna sleep. i am gonna sleep.

ah, tmw got physics QUIZ, but im treating it like it's a TEST. gotta be serious abt such things.

oh yar, in case i forget, i dreamt that a parrot shitted on my right shoulder while it was resting on an empty branch and i was walking underneath that branch. other parts of that dream is a blur. another dream has me dropping into a shopping centre [shopping centre again!? i dreamt of it twice oredi.. and it's always the same setting] and being veri lost.. couldnt find an exit and while i was panicking, i took note that there's a huge arcade selling A LOT of chup-a-chugs at 40 cents.. alot leh!! like a mountain. wanted to go buy one, budden somehow i didnt.

okae, im tired. tata!

today

heyhey!

today was veri interesting.

june is actually reading my blog!! hello!

this morning, our class was the last row so we were veri vulnerable to attire checks from ANY teacher. i felt kinda insecure. nobody at my left side..

den for pe, we jumped 50 jumping jacks and me and shaoqin ran 3.2km leh! wah.... okae lar, we walked, jogged and ran. budden shaoqin kept stopping.. her stamina not veri good.. budden i kept telling her to go go go.. den at the last round, we were running [okae, i was running and sq was jogging] and i saw that mr loke smiling in a veri evil way. dunno why, but i kept thinking abt the dream i had recently.. and you know wad? throughout the dream, i didnt see him at all!! weird rite? haha.. and his face round meh? still cant believe.. just manage to spot his ass veri round.. haha.. hey, not my fault.. he bend down rite in front of me.. >:(

den when i reached home, i sewed the button of my skirt and oso, i jumped another 100 times in the bedroom secretly.. feel so happy that i exercised today!!

budden i veri disappointed in myself that i bought rice.. but i got add in alot of veg as compensation and i only added two dishes to the rice: curry veg and barbecued chicken without fats and ligaments.. den i added the mutton curry to the rice as sauce.. delicious but spicy.. den while we were eating, suddenly i saw nicholas eating at the table behind ours.. he looked kinda lonely.. budden after that got some frens from other class came and sit down with him.. but kinda odd, of all empty tables in the canteen, he chose to squeeze with us.. diao~

den when we were at the canteen cooling down from pe, zhi siang or zhi xiang came to tok to us and den sheryl and i went to the toilet to change.. [actually, i just wore the skirt.. dun wanna stink the blouse.. sheryl was the one who wanted to change back to uniform cos she was going to woodlands to meet her fren.. always go out, how she study?!] den when we came back, the gals and the guy was still there.. hehe.. he wanted to go home with june and me de.. that's why they were waiting there.. in the end, sheryl had to share the same bus stop as christopher budden she dunno wad to tok to him so they didnt tok at all.. den the 3 of us took 180 home and june was ECSTACTIC. she kept laughing and using her towel to cover her face when she laughing.. so funny lor! and then there was this teacher from pj who sat infront of us and he was actually looking at our [gals] attire lor! haiyo, wad a workaholic. *shake head*

dream~

managed to remember bits and pieces of my dreams. and you know wad? i woke up at 9 plus, dozed off only to dream A LOT and woke up at 10.30.. can only remember the dreams i dreamt within that hour.

i was at this end of the staircase at a beach. it isnt clean, and it isnt smelly. there's wood here and there. the staircase i was at was leading to a void deck of an old hdb flat. okae, den there's a small dam at the open space of the void deck. and there's a huge monsoon drain leading from the dam. cant really describe it, maybe i can build it one day. and then suddenly, the sea was starting to overflow into the beach and i noticed and i quickly got my fren [who was with me at the staircase] to climb up that flight of stairs, hoping that the sea wont catch up with us. but the rise wasnt slowing or stopping. so i quickly removed the small dam and hoped that when the water comes, at least it can mostly flow into the drain..

another dream was more interesting. there was a rapist-cum-murderer on the prowl. and he had wanted to kill one of my frens but luckily i rescued her. and somehow, throughout that dream, the murderer had a known identity of being a teacher: keefe loke. den after that failed attempt, he disappeared only to resurface as a delivery guy and he sent a package to my house. never got to see wad was in that package, but i saw that the next target was me. i got excited. not nervous, not scared, just pure excitement. God knows why i like to be a murderer's target. den i was deciding on which method he would kill me and which method is the most painless. and i remember i was running down a flight of sheltered stairs while happily thinking of how i would like to be killed.

there are many parts to the dreams that i have forgotten. but the dream left me rather tired. been running up and down stairs and doing quite alot of running during the dreams.

i looked myself in the mirror and a thought came to my mind.

"this is eunice. this year is 2006. eunice is gonna be EIGHTEEN this year. den why does it look like a FOURTEEN-yr-old is looking back at her in the mirror!?"

okae, im gonna be chanting, "im eighteen. im eighteen. im eighteen. i am no longer in primary, not in sec skool and im leaving junior college in 11 months."

still cant take it. all these years i've been wanting to grow faster and older. have bummed around life not knowing my clear direction. suddenly, reality strikes and i am eighteen oredi. i still remember ever so clearly the times when i was in primary skool and catching tadpoles from the skool pond and ending up falling into the brown water. i guess i frightened off A LOT of the tadpoles. still remember how those huge terapins [izzit spelt liddat?] sunned themselves at the edge of the pond and stretch out their limbs to catch a nice sunshine, only to end up scrambling and splashing lightning fast back to the safety of the water whenever i came over to say hi. the scrambling gets both parties wet. but i never minded. i still remember when once i was going home from piano lesson that i saw a lonely kitten who lost it mama. went down to stroke it, only to get bitten by that lil piteous thing. it clung gently onto my hand with its teeth [even though it's young, it has sharp teeth] and then its paw cames scratching at my wrist. somehow, my hand looks like a real nice smooth yarnball. lucky the paws not veri sharp, or else i die of bleeding le. i didnt dare to move my hand cos moving while being bitten will either cause the feline to sink its teeth even deeper, or quit biting at that part and bite another part of the body. so i waited for the kitten to let go and meanwhile, patted its head to get it relaxed and stop playing with my hand. when it let go, my hand wasnt bleeding much. just a lil blood from the punctured marks on my palm. by now, the hand has healed and no scar was left behind. kinda amazed by the recovery cos i didnt even wash my hand after the bite, which could have caused inflammation. haiz, after the biting and scratching, i still love cats alot. there are strays in my neighbourhood and one day, i even recorded one of them. it hissed into the phone and den meowed ever so sweetly while i was recording. it is such a nice meow-er.

oops, i got out of point.

many memories came from primary and secondary skool. jc? i dun wanna remember the 3 months in innova. still trying to forget the pple there. the pple in my class were mostly bad pple who talked behind my back. but luckily there was junhao, my sec 2 ex-classmate.. haha, somehow, everywhere i go, there's an ex-classmate. now, there's david, my sec 1 and 2 ex-classmate. haha..

i gotta shout out: I AM EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD THIS YEAR!!

and i am still so short. and fat. and now im old. who will want me like this!?

my free diet

Free Diet Helps You Lose Weight Fast

Here is a very simple free diet which you'll find very versatile and ever so easy lose weight.
I'll do my best do guide you in this free diet. I would like to see you lose weight and achieve your ideal weight as quickly as is good for your health, and I have no doubt that you can do it. You should of course consult your doctor before trying out this free diet, if you have any existing health problems.

If you want to see the weight fall off and stay off then I recommend the following:

1. Virtually cut out sugar - Sweets, cakes, biscuits, processed food with a high sugar content. Sugar will stop you from losing weight more than anything else you eat. So if you wish to lose weight fast through this free diet plan, then cut it out all together.

2. Cut right back on other carbohydrates - particularly potatoes, rice, cereal, pasta, white bread, dried fruit, grapes, sugary drinks, fruit juice etc. Once carbohydrates enter your stomach they begin to change into sugar, so eating carbohydrates is just like eating sugar. Well not quite as bad, as the sugar is gradually released, instead of all being pumped into your bloodstream at once. But with this free diet, really be careful to cut down on your carbohydrates.

Diabetics; particularly those on insulin and/or other drugs, should consult their medical doctor, or dietician, before reducing their carbohydrate intake. If you reduce your carbohydrate intake, you may also need to reduce your insulin, and you must consult your doctor over this. If you reduce your carbohydrates without reducing your insulin, your sugar level may drop too low. So diabetics be careful with this free diet program.

3. Of course eat some fresh uncooked fruit (about 4 pieces a day) and some fresh vegetables on this free diet; go careful on carrots and parsnips as they have quite a bit of sugar in them, and may inhibit your weight loss.

4. Increase the amount of protein food you take on this free diet, to compensate for the carbohydrates you have reduced in this free diet. More meat, eggs, fish, chicken, peas, beans, etc. Do this within reason.

5. Don't over indulge on fat, but don't try to cut it out. It's OK to eat some higher fat foods. A little fat won't stop you from losing weight. And if you starve yourself, you will end up lowering your metabolism and weight loss will become more difficult later on.

6. Do about 15 minutes plus exercise eat day. Of course 30 minutes to one hour would be much better, once your fitness had been built up. But 15 minutes is really much better than no exercise at all. The morning is good for this.

If you have medical problems or are over 50 you should consult your doctor about this and other aspects of this free diet.

As you exercise you'll gain muscle mass, so you'll be losing inches rather than weight, and of course you'll be looking and feeling much better.

man, im gonna follow this diet for as long as i can! it seems harmless to me. and it isnt the atkins diet ok?
