CNY: day 3

It was the last day of celebrations. We went to Sentosa to "see" Sentosa Flowers 2006. The flowers are so beautiful.
We had to cut short our outing as I had a stomachache. In the end, my parents brought me back home while the others continue their "tour". At night, we had a seafood dinner before bidding goodbye as the next day was a school day. I hate it and I had a test.
=)

CNY: day 1 and 2

We woke up early in the morning to visit our relatives. We went to quite a lot of places before going back to my cousins' house. We ate lunch there. My uncle, auntie and cousin were not at home as they had lion dance performances. We went home at night and watched TV until midnight.
The next day, we went to my mother-side grandmother's house, then we met up with my uncle's family. My cousin brought her dog along as it was the Year of the Dog. Everybody just love him. They gave him treats and cuddles. My cousins and I collected a lot of Red Packets.

(sorry to take such a long time to write)

CNY: eve

We went to my grandparents' house in the afternoon. My cousin's dog even had new clothes!
After dinner, all of us went to Far East Flora to buy some flowers for the new year. I bought tulips and a pot of plant.
When we returned home, it was already 10 o'clock. I watched TV until 1 in the morning with my father and brother.

CNY: day before eve

Today I went home at about 10.30am. School ended early, we had no lessons except watching a Chinese New Year concert. Not many schools dismissed early as today was not the eve of Chinese New Year.
Tonight, I am having my reunion dinner with my uncle's family and grandparents. We usually have reunion dinner at the eve.
Wish everyone a happy and prosperous New Year!

Updates

Chinese New Year is just round the corner... 2 more days to be exact.

Today was my A maths test. I only knew how to do 1 question...going to fail the paper... Oh no!
I will be updating on my Chinese New Year activities and stuff.

I will also be having another another blog...but I will still come to this one.
Bye~~
Flowers in the air...

Updates

The rain had finally stopped. It had stopped for a few days, but I did not have time to write in my blog.
My father came back from Korea on Sunday and went to Thailand on Tuesday. I had to go to school all by myself.
Lots of homework, and tests are coming... This Friday, I have an English test. Followed by Social Studies on Tuesday, Physics and "A" maths on Wednesday, maths on the following Thursday and so on...
I can't stand it, teachers kept telling us about "O" levels... I barely have time to go online.

Help!!

Wet, Wet day

It had been raining since Friday. Rain, rain all day long. In some countries, it is snowing, but in Singapore it is raining.
It is very cool, at night, I would wear long pants and socks to sleep.
I hope the rain would not stop. I loved rainy days especially at night. I like this song call "I loved a rainy night".
However, my father was working in another country so he can't drive me to school, so I hope it will not rain when I am going to school. He will be back this Sunday.

Warmest Wishes

sch news 2006

It was the first day of school in 2006. It was back to the usual stuff I always did, woke up at 6am, went to school.....
The guys all looked so "weird" in their long pants. It made them looked taller. I had friends from my former class, I still keep in touch with my Sec 2 friends. My class was quite all right, except the guys were not that active. When we had a free period, they just sit on the chairs and sleep... I hope they will change, I like the guys to be fun-loving and "active". Today, we got to know our teachers and classmates. Tomorrow, it was back to study.
(Today, 3rd of Jan, is my brother's birthday)
Best Wishes

Farewell....Old Year

It is the end of another year.
School year is about to start, again. Not that I like it...
Schoolbags are being packed, and the "excitement" of meeting your new teachers and friends.
I don't like going to school... You have to wake up early, have late lunches, come home at about 4pm on "normal" days, evening on "special" days. No computers even if parents say you can play after finishing homework....which can never be finished. I usually have breakfast at 6am, lunch at 4pm and dinner at 7pm. I have a break at 10am in school but I did not eat. Who would if you just have breakfast? Our classes end at 2.10pm.
After dinner, it is doing homework. For example: the homework takes about 2 hours to finish, it will be 9 and then it is time for bed... Though, many of my friends slept at midnight.
I will always say 'I hate school' whenever I have the chance, then I will give a 101 reasons to why "we should not go the school". Although that does not change anything, at least I will feel better.
I will say again:
Farewell Old Year
"Unhappy" New Year

Christmas spirit in the air

On Christmas eve, at about 4 o'clock, my family and uncle's family went to Orchard Cineplex to watch The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. After that, we went to eat dinner. We took a "stroll" down Orchard Road to look at the lightings. It was a flood of people. I hated it when some people used party sprays. They will sprayed it on passers-by.
Later, we drove to Bugis Juction. We were enjoying the fountain while my uncle went to look for coffee-house. Suddenly, a youth "smacked" another youth's helmet. The transparent cover came out. The youth fell down and was kicked by the two youths. They were just beside us. We were pulled away by our parents and walked away quickly. We were all shaken by this. We were still discussing about it when we went to the a coffee-house. To think that something like this would happen before our eyes.
We went home at about 11pm. I got online and had a Christmas countdown in Maplestory. I played until 1am. Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas??

To me, Christmas is just another day. Each year, Christmas meant less and less. As we grow older, we recieved less presents. Few years ago, we had celebrations in my uncle's house. This year, I am going to watch The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe with my uncle's family.
I don't know how to describe that feeling. That when you see people bought lots of gifts and you wonder why they buy "everything" (not practical things). Although, my father bought presents for us, I don't know what to buy. We did not put up a Christmas tree this year. I made a Christmas wreath and some snowflakes.
I sent out Christmas greetings to my MSN friends, but only some replied. It made me very happy as this was the first time I recieved greetings online.
Anyway, I want to wish all of you Merry Christmas!

God Jul (Merry Christmas)
Best Wishes everyone
Snowflakes in the air....

lyrics written by me--Part 2

Well, it is the Christmas season. Here is a song "written" by me. It may not be original but I am very proud of it.

Aragorn was Gondor's King

often known as Elessar

He married Arwen of Rivendell

the Evenstar of her fair kindred

Legolas was an elven prince

whose father was Mirkwood's King

Fleet-footed and fair was his skin

Keen were the eyes of Legolas

One of the nine companions

who set out together to destroy the Ring

Gimli was Gloin's son

A dwarf that dwelt in Glittering Caves

and was known as an Elf-friend

He held an axe in his hand

Faramir was Denethor's son

the last steward of Minas Tirth

He married Eowyn of The Mark

the shieldmaiden of Rohan

The younger brother of Boromir

who was slained by some orcs

Gandalf was the white wizard

and was known as Mithrandir

He rode on a horse called Shadowfax

the king of all the horses

Sam and Frodo, Merry and Pippin

They were hobbits from the Shire

The Ring possessed by Bilbo Baggins

was in fact the One Ring

The ring that was forged in Mount Doom

wore by Sauron and Gollum

( lyrics by ssk a.k.a adrielle)

What do you think? It is to be sing to the tune of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing". You will find that it would mostly fit in. Hope all you like it. I like the first two chorus, it is the most successful. My brother helped in the making of this song too.

Please comment on it....

Best Wishes

Vacation at Malaysia

On December 11, My family, uncle's and aunt's families went to Malaysia ( 3 families ). It was a last minute decision. After lunch at my uncle's house, we drived to Malaysia.
We reached Melacca at about evening time. We stayed in a family budget hotel as it was only for one night. We went to visited the night-market and had dinner at a chicken rice stall.
Next morning, we leave the hotel to "search" for breakfast. We travelled around the city to look for breakfast but most stalls opened at 10 am. At last, we went to a nearby R & R to eat A and W. We drank root beer and ate hamburgers. After that, we went Mines Resort shopping center.
We ate sushi for lunch.
On our way to Bukit Tinggi, we got lost a few times. At evening, we reached Bukit Tinggi Resort. It was quite cool there. The resort was set like a Holland Village. We walked around and found out that most shops closed at 7.00, 9.00 pm. We ate at La Flamme Sidewalk Deli, a pizza shop. After dinner, it was already 9.30. We watched a show there.
7.30 was our morning call. We ate a buffet breakfast. We went bowling afterwards. My score was 18 and 47. After that, we to the Botanical Garden and Japanese Tea House. We also went horse riding. It was really fun. My cousins, brothers and I had horse riding lessons. My horse was called 'Patch'. For dinner, we had roasted chicken at Le Poulet Roti.
Next morning, 14 December, we packed up. Before we left, we went to the Rabbit Farm. We went to the same R & R to eat KFC and bought things. We reached Singapore at about 7 somthing.
Thats all for now

chocolates

Well, I decided to write a little more about myself.
I like chocolates very much. I like dark chocolate best. At home now, I have 5 packets of chocolates. Some of them are bought from the airport, whenever my father go overseas, he would buy chocolates for us.
Usually, I would either eat 'Cadbury' or 'Ferrero Rocher'.
The best dark chocolate I have eaten so far is 'Droste', produced in Holland.
The most expensive chocolate in my home now is 'Lindt'. It is made in Switzerland. It is swiss dark chocolate thins.
Besides chocolates, I also like ice-cream. My favorites are "cherry garcia", "New York super fudge chunk", "chocolate cake", "mint and chocolate chips", "chocolate chips" and many more. My favorite brands are 'Ben and Jerry's' and 'Haagen Dazs'.
Thats all for now

Another day...Part 2

I just came back from my school. The teacher did get my father's E-mail after all. My Sec 3 class has Pure Science and 'A' Maths. I won't cry any more. No use crying anyway. Some of my Sec 2 friends are also in my class.
But if anything "go wrong", like I failed my Maths, the teacher who"encouraged" me to go to this class is to be blamed. (being childish again)
Wish me luck : )

Another day...

Today, I am going back to school to know which class I go to next year. I am really nervous.
Remember the last time I wrote about the "class thing" (refered to Dead...), I wanted to go to another class but.........? I don't want to talk about it. I dread what I am going to find.
I don't know if my teacher got my father's E-mail because she did not reply back. If I go to my "choice" class, I am afraid that I will regret it. If I go to my father's "choice" class, I will not like it.
What am I going to do?????
Take Care

GOF

Yesterday, I went to watch Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire with my mother and brothers. It was really good, better than the Prisoner of Azkaban (POA). I would give GOF 4 stars out of 5. In my opinion, the POA was too much of a comedy. I was quite disappointed by it as POA was my favorite book. I read more than 10 times.
I like the first two films best because all of the actors are so "cute", especially Draco. My favourite character in the movie is Draco. Hope all of you enjoyed it.
Until next time :-)

lyrics written by me

Greetings everyone! Hope all of you are fine.
Christmas is round the corner so here is something for you to enjoy.

Its that time of the year

when winter appear

The cold and snowy days

and slippery walkways

Sitting around the fire

telling winter's tales

Christmas is here

just like any other year

Its just another winter's tale

of sleigh bells and christmas lights

In the world where everything is wrong

something finally went right

Green, red and white

the colours of christmas

Why can't we see that nowadays

I hope one day I may

Sitting around the fire

telling winter's tales

Christmas is here

just like any other year

( lyrics by ssk a.k.a adrielle)

This is an original song compose by me, I hope. I got my ideas from christmas songs I heard.

Please do not copy my lyrics. I spent lots of time on it. I will put some more lyrics I wrote next time. There is one about the characters in Lord of the Rings.

Take Care

Maths........Yuck!

Having seen the title, you should know that I dislike or even hate Maths.
One of my most hated subject is Maths. I am not too good in it. That is the reason I am not choosing 'A' Maths as a subject. I started hating Maths when I was in Primary 3. Although, I did not fail in almost all my Maths tests and exams, I will never like it. I hate graphs, fractions, angles...... worst of all ALGEBRA. I am not like those people who treat Maths as a "hobby", doing Maths as if they were "drinking water". ( It is just an exaggeration ) Whenever I see lots of Maths questions, my brain would go dead. I just can't think.
When I encounter a question I don't know how to do, I will just leave it aside, without bothering the other questions. I know this attitude is not good, but I can't help it. If I am too annoyed with the questions, I would throw the books or papers on the floor and stamp on them. Somtimes, I even cried. Maths s****.
This is probably one of the very harsh blog I have ever written. This is also the first time I write a bad word. Some of you who like Maths may even write unkind comments. But this is how I feel about Maths. I hate Maths!!!!!
( find how many times I write "I hate Maths")

HoLiDaYs

The school holidays had already passed about 2 weeks. I had lots of homework, but had not even started on a single one. I must finish my work before Nov 26. This date is not given to me by my parents but by my "stars". I read it every day on the newspaper.
I stayed at home by myself durings the holidays. I did not do much at home. I did some housework. Most of my time were spent online.
I played a game called MapleStory. You had to create a character to fight monsters and at a certain level, you get to choose a job. You can buy items to dress up your character. Above are some monsters you have to fight. I also had accounts in Neopets and HabboHotel.
Recently, I borrowed a book called The Origins of Tolkien's Middle-earth For Dummies by Greg Harvey. It helps you make sense of the creatures, language, geography, and richly detailed history of the fascinating world of Middle-earth. You will discovered the varied sources and inspirations behind Tolkien's stories and comprehend the meanings that lie beneath the surface.
Until next time :O
