An update.

An update.
On my mediocre life.

House Concerrrts!

It's tomorrow. I've been extra involved this year, showing up to mostly singing (sometimes dancing) rehearsals without fail practically every lunchtime and afterschool. :D kind of. I did, occasionally, rarely, sometimes, leave early. But still.

Year 11 is intense. Bio, Chem, MATHS, English homework is cropping up lots. Barely surviving, but surviving nonetheless.

Had lunch with Yu Pyn and Viv on Saturday after rehearsals at Shine cafe/bar at the Glen. Church, then NASI LEMAK dinner with Zhen-Li, Eunice and stuff. Twas fun. Although I missed out on MOVIES at Knox with the other church gang. Gosh. Everyone went. Jun-yi, Kendrick, Mavis, Chris, Ben... Ah well. I had fun. :)

Determined to go job hunting tomorrow. Been postponing it for WAY too long.

Madam Anbarci for French. She's nice. Je manque de parler en francais... Dommage, je ne suis plus en France.

TO BED. I'm shleepy.

the Thoughts

a cancerous Thought
in a dim corner of her mind.
multiplying. thousands of dark fly-like beings.
and still, she knows nothing. life goes on.

it's only when she's alone, in the night, when the Thoughts, explode.

freed and powerful, they rampage through her mind.
a white hand in the black window. fear.
once the gates were opened, nothing holds them back.
the malicious things, they cackle.
i am alone.
Thoughts buzzing, a swarm of bees.
encompassing, devouring all in their path.
then stillness.

a crumpled figure. lost. salvaging what's left of her sanity.

Not about anything really

Wow.

So it's been an extremely long time since I've blogged and perhaps, however miniscule it's contribution, it has, in fact, played a part in the mild deterioration (okay, wrong choice of words, but I'm at a loss for another word -.-) of my English standard.

I'm also placing some of the blame on spending 5 weeks in France, hearing, speaking, thinking (somewhat), breathing french. The sentence structures are different, thus slightly affecting my English. D:

Anyway, I seem to have placed a whole lot of emphasis on my English when I actually don't mind thaaat much. I'll just try using as many 'big' words as possible to improve my vocabulary and express my mind more eloquently. :P

The point of this post was to talk about France. Only I cannot possibly consolidate the emotions, wonderful experiences, challenges and lovely people I met in 30 pages, let alone a single blog post; so I'm just. Not going to. :) Besides, I have 2 pages per day for each day I was in France in a little exercise book. Let's hope I don't lose that.

Oh and Universal Studios in Singapore was pretty amazing. Rode the INSANE blue-red transformers rollercoaster. Met up with friends and family in Malaysia, as per usual, just as warm and fuzzy as always. Ate lots. Especially roti canai. :D

Has not come to terms with the fact that she's in Year 11,
