Till we meet again..

what's the most happening event going on nowadays? CHINESE NEW YEAR! haha! so i shall blog about my cny.

初一
Nth much. Woke up early in the morning, had breakfast, then headed off to m'sia. apparently, i slept throughout the journey as per normal. haha! you may say that im as lazy as a pig, but what's wrong with being a pig? COS THIS YEAR IS THE YEAR OF PIG! haha! no lah. i was very tired k! cos i shou3 sui4 the previous night, that's y im so tired. SEE! IT'S FILIAL PIETY! haha! when we finally reached the hotel, my parents went to sleep for a while since they slept very late the previous night to pray and didn't manage to catch a wink on the journey, unlike me. haha! now u can say that im like a pig cos despite sleeping so much in the car, i still slept in the hotel. :P ok! now it's the climax of the day! at night, the whole family (as in all the relatives frm my paternal side) ate reunion dinner tgt at a restaurant. the food there were delicious and sumptuous! firstly, we had yu sheng! one of my favourites! sadly, i can only get to eat it during cny. the yu sheng in m'sia seems to be slightly diff frm singapore's, but what more can i say? as long as i get to eat it, i dont care abt it! cant rmb the sequence, but i know we had roasted pig, herbal chicken, a mixed dish, chilli fish, crab and coconut! yes! i enjoyed myself a lot when eating the crabs cos it's also one of my favourite food! oh! n the coconut was very nice! they cut a lid on the coconut and put coconut flavoured pudding in it. it's soft, not too sweet and has an authentic coconut taste. so it's GOOD! after dinner, we went to my 2nd aunt's place. her sofa was so tall that my feet couldn't reach the ground :P as the adults chatted at the balcony, i watched tv in the living room with my niece and nephew. after that, we went to another uncle's place and returned to the hotel.

初二
my mother and i were very tired cos we returned to the hotel rather late the previous night and slept very late too. so we slept till very late. im not sure abt my mother, but i know i woke up after her, which was around 11+. haha! my father only gets to return home occasionally, obviously he woke up early in the morning to have breakfast with my grandmother. after we really woke up, our first stop was my uncle's hse. i dont think i've mentioned this to anybody b4. do you know that my father has a twin brother?! haha! i always thought they dont look very alike, but many ppl have mistaken them for many times alrdy. even my cousins, that uncle's sons, have mistaken my father as their father b4. HAHA! SURPRISINGLY THIS HAS NVR HAPPENED TO ME B4! so this time, i tried to stare at my uncle for some time to see in what way does he resemble my father. indeed, they look quite alike lah, but i still can differentiate them! (: a few days ago, i was telling my father how riding a motorcycle is good when u meet with a traffic jam. so he borrowed motorcyle frm my uncle and drove me around that area. my '第一次' riding a motorcycle... haha! next, we went to my 2nd uncle's place for lunch. and they prepared my favourite chilli! once again, i enjoyed my nice meal there! (: after that, we went back to singapore.

初三
no diff from a pig, i woke up at 11+ again! dragged myself off the bed and went to bathe. haha! i was feeling rather high that day, so i wore a sleeveless top and a mini skirt. besides, i let down my hair and even wore dangling earrings! haha. yes. it's so unlike me. but when i feel high, i'll do smth very unlike myself. seriously, that's my first time wearing dangling earrings :P my 第一次... haha! when i was eating lunch, my cousin and his family came. at first, we were all watching tv, then we went to play carom (hopefully i nvr spell it wrongly). my cousin was pro. he kept goaling. he can win one after another consecutively. then rachael, my niece, and i will try to hit the counters (dont know what it is called) to his side, so that he's unable to shoot. haha! then, my mother's ex-colleague, aunty alice, brought her daughters here. my mother is very close to her, juz like best frens. her daughters and i used to play tgt when we were small. her older daughter, joey, has the same age as me, while the younger one, jolin, is one yr younger. i feel really inferior when i first saw them cos they're juz like two tall trees in front of me! haha! even jolin is like... one head taller than me?? oh man... i still can rmb that my mother used to give jolin my clothes and shoes which were new but i nvr wore! now, i think her clothes are too big for me! well, at least I WAS ONCE TALLER THAN JOLIN! haha! we chatted for a while, had dinner then watched tv. b4 they left, i discovered smth. their pri sch fren is my fren! the world is so small lah! after they left, i continued playing carom with rachael. btw, we have the same age lah. when we were small, she and her brother, royston, often came to my hse to play. when i was in p6, rachael often came to my hse to revise for psle tgt. sadly, after all of us promoted to sec sch, we're all so busy that we hardly communicate. until ytd, when we played carom tgt and chatted abt our sch lives, the feeling was back. what feeling? the feeling that we're not like strangers to one another. seriously, i really missed my childhood days when i got to play with my childhood frens. well, time cant return to the past, so i can only look forward.

初四
sigh. sch reopened. luckily today is a rather slacky day. i enjoyed myself most during pe lesson. huiying is super pro at basketball can! being able to throw into the net is alrdy very pro, but she has the ability of making the ball stuck at the 'basket'. HAHA! this is not her first time doing that ok! i always wanted to take a pic of the EXTRAORDINARY scene, but she always got the ball out b4 i get my hp. im seriously very blur lah. dont know the boundaries... oh! here's a quote from suzie. 'Sheila looks like a flying squirrel!' lol?!? haha! spastic suzie. during pe, i was laughing and playing very hard, in the end, my face became doubly red. LOL! and i think i shocked many ppl cos my red cheeks didn't seem ordinarily red. haha! then we had math lesson, chem lesson, chi lesson (sad. got back chi paper but i didnt score very well. becos of compre, as per normal), last but not least, LA! we completed our movie during LA. what a sad movie.. haha. dont know y, i didn't feel like going home, but eventually, i still went back home lah. i was so tired that i fell asleep in bed right after i bathed. slept till around 7, my fifth aunt, uncle, cousin and my little niece came. my mother quickly woke me up. my little niece is very cute! very chubby! haha! as her father is a malay, she has a pair of beautiful eyes (big eyes n long eyelashes). awww.. so envious.. haha! when we were 'mixing' the yu sheng, she got so high that she started screaming! haha!!! so cute! in the lift, my uncles and aunties were discussing what she shd call me. and the conclusion is, she has to call me 表姨. hoho! im an aunty once again! looking at her reminds me of myself when i was around her age. like her, i juz started learning how to speak, so i could only pronounce the last syllable. haha! after saying so much, guess how she calls me. YI! haha! sounds like EEEEEEE! oh! this reminds me of chan yi cos i always call her YI! lol! ok! shall stop here, cos im going out to play with my little niece. BYE! (:

As for today, i met jeanette to go and buy our new year clothes. see, we're so pathetic that we only managed to get clothes on cny eve. we went to square2 at novena. it's a new shopping centre, so many of the shops are still under renovation. at the entrance, a time zone person gave us a free timezone card each. it valids until 3pm. we can use it to play unlimited no. of games until 3pm. since it was a good start of our shopping, the both of us were very happy. nette said that she saw a skirt frm a magazine and that we can find it frm a shop in this shopping centre. so we went to the directory to search for the venue of the shop. but when we reached the unit, it wasnt the shop that she's looking for, so we continued walking. after some rounds of shopping, we went back to the unit cos we thought the clothes there were quite nice. in the end, i bought myself a jeans skirt and nette bought a brown long sleeved shirt and a brown mini-skirt. b4 that, i bought myself a jeans 3/4 pants. then, we walked to velocity. i bought a brown blouse frm a shop called 'animal'? haha! yup. it seems like we're very brownish. WE'RE BROWNIES! HAHAAHAHAHAHA! lastly, i went to cut my hair since it's NEW YEAR. talking abt this makes me piss. when i juz entered the shop to ask for the price, the shopkeeper had to call someone to ask for the price. they said if im cutting my frindge only, it costs $5. if im cutting the whole thing, it costs $35+. fine. obviously i only cut my frindge. i told the hairdresser what frindge i want lor. but he doesnt understand. since i wanted a frindge that looks quite like jeanette's, i even told him i want her frindge, REAL LIFE EXAMPLE. but he cut until dont know like what lah. parting not striaght, frindge line not even, length of the v-shape on both sides r uneven... !!! LUCKILY I DIDNT CUT MY WHOLE HAIR WHICH I ACTUALLY WANTED TO DO SO. imagine lah. frindge alrdy so ugly, if it's my whole hair...? somemore the whole hair costs $35+ lah! if i really paid that for such ugly hair, I THINK I MAY SUE THEM! I WAS VERY ANGRY LAH! my poor parents had to bear with my complaints. lol. oh no... im so tired now alrdy. i still have a long way to go to the next morning... how? haha! yeah.. im shou3 sui4-ing now. sigh... going back to m'sia tmr... anyway, MERRY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVERYBODY! (:

Till we meet again..

yesterday was cny celebration. it was my first time performing my mo li hua solo. was rather scared that i would screw it up. luckily it went smoothly, mrs ee also said that it was bu4 cuo4! (: so i must jia you! after the celebration, sarah and i went to plaza singapura for a date! we ate at pizza hut. while waiting for the food, we purposely placed the pictures of the food available in front of each other so as to make each other drool. haha! after that we went to play arcade. arcade was fun! esp the shooting game! the both of us got so excited when playing that game that we kept screaming! hahahahha! whenever one of us died, sarah would get very anxious and would quickly slot in the coin to continue the game. to my shockness, i realised that we've spent over 20 bucks in the arcade. :O! not to waste more money, we decided to go to her place to play free games n have free dinner! haha! at her place, we played on her 'jogging machine' and the piano. then she played the pokemon and i slept on her bed. haha! after abt 30min, we went to the kitchen and cooked maggie noodles! To be more specific, sarah cooked the noodles while i was her helper. HAHA! after dinner, we rushed to tpy central. sarah was NICE to ESCORT me to the interchange. haha! then i ran for ge prac. ge prac was fun n funny. haha! in fact, i've been laughing the whole night that i got very tired in the end. AS A CONCLUSION, IT WAS A JOYFUL DAY! (:

10:59 PM


Till we meet again..

haa! long time no blog. i shall first blog about last wk's flag day. (rather long alrdy) well, last sat, my class went to chinatown to do our flag day for cip. it was my first time doing flag day. at first, i thought it would be tough cos we have to stand under the hot sun for long hours. however, it wasn't like that. shitong, huiying, sarah, suzie, beehiang, cheryl, jieyi and i walked together as a grp. as some of us haven't had lunch, we headed to a food centre right after we got our tins. on our way, we started to ask about for donations. i was very happy becos my very FIRST donation wasn't rejected and it was a two-dollar note! that's quite a lot alrdy okay! well, i think maybe becos huiying is quite experienced in flag day, she sounded very 'professional' when asking for donation, so many ppl donated to her. haha! When i was buying drinks at the food centre, the uncle was very kind as he offered to bring us about in the food centre and ask the vendors to donate money to us. to show our gratitude, all of us thanked him and wished him a happy new year b we left. then, we went to the nearby pasar malam. b4 we left the place, we played a few games at the games stall. sarah and i shared 2 games and we won 2 keychains. (: shitong played the throwing game (since she's a softballer). she's pro at shooting, but unfortunately, the uncle cheated and only gave her a hamburger soft toy, but not the bear which she's supposed to get. next, we walked through the crowded street where people shop for their new yr stuff. again, we met a kind uncle who gave us a packet of mua chee each! (: then, we splitted at people's park shopping centre. at first, sarah and i stood next to the cai2 shen2 ye2 at the entrance. the response wasnt very gd and we were even being chased away. haha! so we went further away. as we were walking, we saw a grp of armed policemen walking against our direction. when i juz saw them, i was shocked because they looked as if they were going attack us. luckily they were juz doing their normal rounds. so, we stood near the bridge to ask for donations. there were many ppl walking past there. apparently, we gained a lot of donations frm there. when time's almost up, we went back and had fun at the nearby macs. AS A CONCLUSION, IT WAS A FUN DAY! (:

Today nyco went to SCH for rehearsal. For the first time we played, i suddenly felt the syf mood and spirit. (oh! n smth funny happened after that song. mrs ee flung her conductor's stick at the end of the song. haha! somemore it was towards the xianyue direction. so shocking!) I really like that feeling because i feel that im not walking alone. However, when it came to my mo li hua solo, i didnt play well cos i dont know why i suddenly got nervous. After that, i recalled what yiqing said the day before our nac competition finals last yr,"i dont know why i feel exceptionally nervous for this competition. maybe it's because im going to play a solo in the song. if i didnt play well, the WHOLE group will be affected just becos of ONE person's mistake." And now, i finally get the taste of that feeling. Sometimes, it's not that i completely cant do it, it's like i can play what i want, but when it comes to playing it during dazu, i will not play as well. Nervous? perhaps. I think i really have to train myself to the stage such that i wont be nervous even during syf. Last year, during my nac preliminary round, I wasn't nervous at all. Only when i entered the stage, my heart suddenly beat extremely fast. Indeed, i didnt perform as well as usual. I believe it's because of my nervousness that has caused that. After that lesson, i've promised myself that i wont let my nervousness affect my performance anymore. So, i must do it for syf competition.

After school, we had cny concert rehearsal. We're playing mo li hua. The soloists each has a mic beside. Amusingly, when i played the soft parts, they sounded very loud. HAHA! Oh! And when the AV man helped me put the mic beside my erhu (which was a bit behind me), he said,"Now that the mic is behind u, dont fart." HAHA!

Oh wells. Then we had xiaozu. Since xiaozu was optional for the syf ppl, all my erhu batchmates left me alone. ): But xiaozu was fun because zls left some time for us to interact with the sec 1 juniors! Hehe. I find my sec 1 juniors rather sweet and adorable! sigh... XIANG3 DANG1 NIAN2... OH! GREAT DISCOVERY! I've a junior who has the same birthday as me. SO COOL RIGHT!
___________________________________________________________________

After today, i realised that things aren't simple as it seems on the surface. When you take a closer look, you'll see many flaws in it. After knowing some things, i start to feel worried. We're not as good as we think. Or rather we're just not good. But time is running up. What can we do? We aim high, but can we reach it? What if we can achieve? :/

MY GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT OF THE DAY: I finally know how to throw basketball into the 'basket'!

Hohoho... Today's P.E. lesson is fun. As you all know that im short, i obviously have difficulty in throwing the ball into the net. After Ms Chue's detailed teaching, I managed to aim a nice one. (:! And after some practices, i THINK im getting better at it. yay! haha. but im still not very good lah. Well, at least i've improved. (:

OH! Good news! Hehe. Thank you Yingxuan! haha! Thanks for saying,"ur ten reasons made me glad i'm short too!". This is because you've inspired me to think of a topic for my LA motivational speech! yay! haha. Yup. Since i sounded rather motivating (of course to the short ppl only lah), my topic shall be a speech to encourage short people not to feel inferior. Hehehehh... I shall work on my speech now. BYE! (:

PHEW! To my greatest relief man... Just now i went to my parents' room to watch The Arena becos they wanted to watch some other shows in cable. When I pressed the on button on the remote control, nothing happened. I pressed a few more times but to no avail. So i juz pressed the programme button on the television. Finally, the tv was on. But it didnt seem right cos the screen was grey and it's 'jumping'. Expecting the tv to turn back to normal, i stoned in front of the tv for a while. SUDDENLY, SMOKE STARTED TO COME OUT OF THE TV! OMG! i was so scared that my hse will catch fire lah. so i quickly shouted for my father. hahaha! ok. u can say that im stupid becos i shd quickly off the main switch first. hahahahha! Even after the main switch was switched off, there was a foul smell n it lasted for quite a while. SO SCARY. Luckily i've recovered from my shock. Well, i shall talk abt something happier. haha! Juz now beehiang said that im a eng pro! haha! it's so NOT TRUE! She even thought i was in DEBATE! hahahhaah! I didn't know i've such a charm that made her think that way. haha!

Today has ended. Tomorrow is a new start of a stressful day. ):

11:22 PM


Till we meet again..

Since im free today, i shall post again. hurhur. Sigh. im beginning to feel stress alrdy. Sed 3 is tough. I start to not understand math. Last time, I can always finish my Chinese compre paper within 1h and even have 5min extra. Now, I always cant finish on time. The format didnt change. But I dont know why I juz cant finish it on time. Im very scared because im going to have math and chi test next week. ): Okay. I shall think it in a positive way. After next week, i'll be free! Well, actually not really. Still have IH test right after CNY. ): I dont understand IH either. Mr Han's lessons are boring :X and slow. All of us are just too sleepy to pay attention. How how how.... I shall stop my whines and WATCH THE ARENA NOW! byebye!

10 Possible Reasons of Why I Am Short


1. My name- My name is Sheila. The meaning of Sheila in Russia is little girl. LITTLE girl, that's why i cant grow.

2. Heriditary- My parents are both not very tall (in fact im slightly taller then my mother), so im short.

3. Nutrition- Maybe my body doesn't absorb the calcium, that's why my leg bones dont receive any calcium n hence i cant grow.

4. Sitting position- Maybe I always cross my legs, that's why there's no space for my leg bones' growth.

5. Predestined- Maybe God thinks being short is more suitable for me. For instance, I'll benefit for being short?

6. Overall appearance- Many people told me that i look fine being short with my looks, and i may look weird if im tall. So maybe that's why im given this height.

7. Retribution- Maybe i used to be a very tall person in my previous life and i kept despising short people, hence, being short in my present life is my punishment.

8. A form of protection for skin- As you guys know, im rather dark. To prevent 'overheating' which is harmful to our skin, I was designed to be short so that i can be blocked by tall people from sunlight.

9. Easily hide from danger- Im short, in other words, im small-sized. Thus, when 'predators' want to hunt me, i can hide easily because im hardly visible.

10. To prevent hunch-back- Many tall people are suffering from hunch-backs because they always have to bend down to talk to people more conveniently. This will then result in hunch-back. Since it is so, im designed to be short so that instead of having hunch-back, i'll grow more as i always have to 'stretch' to talk to tall people.
