I feel SO terrible now... got back both my soci term papers today. Wad's so upsetting? Firstly, I lost 18 marks... E-I-G-H-T-E-E-N marks becoz of the word "Tan Yiying". Apparently my qualitative report is supposed to keep the anonimity of the person I'm surveying. There was actually "18" written for that section, and den the marker realised I disclosed my informant's name, and "0", "ZERO". Bloody hell... u din specify that I'm not supposed to disclose her name wad... and the worse thing is both my other frenz did lyk damn well for their reports. And while they were trying to console mi, something struck them and they asked mi, "Eh, who's ur tutors ar?" I said "Dr Safman and Prof Ho". They burst out laughing. Apparently both of them got Vincent as their tutor... he's this young Masters student. Aaaargh! Then they both said if my paper was marked by Vincent I definitely would've done better. I realli dun understand why am I so super unlucky... for all my modules I'll get the Profs and the Drs for my tutors... while my frenz arnd mi will get those young lenient Masters students as tutors. E Lang... I got Dr M. while lucky Shih got Dr Tan, altho she already gotten her PhD according to Liza, but she's definitely nicer and more lenient than Dr M. For Marketing last sem, I got S. Fong, who is this experienced "old bird" who expects nothing less than perfection frm her students, and YY got this young Masters student who gives her grp a rather high mark, and they did a very slip-shot work, according to YY. Soci this sem lyk ALL the frenz I noe also taking this module got Vincent, and I got the Prof and the Dr. And initially I thought I could depend on my soci term papers to pull my grade up, I'm so super dead now...Next sem... I'm gg to take all the same modules as all my other frenz... aaargh!!!

TS Prac Exam - 20/4/05
While waiting for our turn...
A veri tensed up Betty...
Playing wif the "poppet" to release stress...
Mercy cum Eliz playing wif fire...
Sum last min briefing before we step into the Black Box...
And then AFTER the exam ended...
All Smiles After the Exam!!!
Posing wif the oh-so-cute poppet!
20 mins not enough... we decided to continue outside... haha!
This is NOT my idea... actually I look more lyk a nun than maid, cos I alr took off my apron...
Our veri handsome Parris & Danforth
Right... I betrayed u gers once...
Let the maids unite!!!
(Rest of the fotos under My Gallery)
I know it sounds weird to say this... but I realli feel this sense of loss after the thing is over. We spent so much time and effort preparing, so much internal disagreements which in the end resolved on today itself... all these brought us so close together. And *BANG*, 20 mins and it's over. Suddenly I tink I'll realli miss the gers... and I tink they too feel the same way cos we went tu have lunch together, and then we were saying muz continue to keep in touch, we muz go KTV together after exams... (haha, I found more singing buddies!) etc etc. I dun tink you can be that close to ur normal tutorial mates...
I dun regret taking TS at all... cos I made so many great frenz. And now I noe how cum Jes would major in it... but well, I was quite stumped at the QnA session, which maybe proves TS 1101 is fine for mi, but go any higher I'll die. Anw the QnA was not half as bad as I thought it was... was expecting they'll ask each individual of us in-depth questions abt our character (which made mi panic for realli long cos until then I still dunno how old is Mary Warren!), but they juz made us sit in a line, den Grant Shen asked 3 questions, anyone can answer... and it's not even lyk if u tok u'll get the mark, he juz want us all to say stg, anything... and TC & Gerald din even say anything at all. Ok... is that supposed to be good? Cos I rem TC said they'll realli bombard u wif qns if ur play is unclear... maybe ours was so clear they din hafta ask anything... hehe...
I had so much fun acting! I'll miss my group! And I take back wad I said in one of the previous entries... I DO miss having no guys around... haha!!!

And just when I thought that politics and catfights are left in the past when we were kids and still very much immature... I'm experiencing it now again. I tink I spoke too soon when I said that I'm very happy dat I've a group that is all gers, wad I miss the sec sch all gers days... I muz have forgotten abt the "backstabbing", "catfights" and "many layers of masks". Initially I felt good to be in this grp, the gers nice... in the sense, everyone was tolerable. Until today, I couldn't take it anymore... this ger, who wants to be examined as an actress but conveniently takes up the role of directing, pushed everyone's tolerance to the boiling point today... and one ger looked lyk she's gg to stand up and slap her alr.
You pple judge for mi la... we have a costume designer, who tells each of us what to wear for our roles. And Miss C (nick for our "big boss") happily shoots down all of her suggestions and insists that we use her suggestions instead. And pls... the costume director dun cum up wif these costumes cos she juz feel lyk it... she made a portfolio, she did her research well abt the Crucible era... and have reasons to back up her choice for every single piece of clothing she wants us to wear. And now, Miss C refutes all her costume choices. Ok, if she IS the director, I got nothing to say, cos director big mah... director has the final say over any designer, be it lighting, set, costume or wadever shit. But in the first place she din choose to be assessed as a director!
Ok nvm... and then for us actresses, we've been veri tolerant and did as she wanted for our stage directions. But it is not HER exam, it is OUR exam... and everytime any of us voice out our opinion abt sumthing we feel not right abt our role, she will juz put us down and use sum cheam cheam words to make sure we accept her ideas. I'm a very tolerant person, and especially when it cums to gers, I dun usually wan to show face and spoil everybody's mood... but I realli reached my limit, I dunno how is tmr's rehearsals gg to turn out... the whole group is so chaotic now... ok actually it is all of us against one, but that one has a veri big mouth and a veri loud voice, literally. With the unity and tightness missing in the team... how the hell are we going to pull off an excellent show, even if each individual does a good job wif her role?
I'm realli very tired abt the whole thing... I wish sum pple wun be so bossy and tink they're how great juz cos they've "alot" of theatre experience... I wish these pple can see how much of a nuisance they are acting... I wish they can step out of their own shoes and watch themselves as a third person...
Maybe if these pple can realli do so... the world will rid itself of so many weird and bitchy pple who seem to be born into the world to make other's lives hell... I feel so tired now, I juz wan the prac exam to be over...

Juz came back frm my TS rehearsal at the Black Box... I tink I realli got a role dat I always wanted to have... not abt the many lines part... but more of this part:(She [Abigail] and the girls run to one wall, shielding their eyes. And now, as though cornered, they ley out a gigantic scream, and MARY, as though infected opens her mouth and scream with them. Gradually Abigail and the girls leave off, until only MARY is left there, staring up at the "bird", screaming madly. All watch her, horrified by this evident fit.....)I get to do a solo screaming act! For once no one can complain abt mi screaming loudly, or whining wif a high-pitched or "teh" voice! Damn damn damn shiok... but need to "wei qu" my throat la... but nvm... got the honey water my dad made for mi... haha... Damn tired now... shall go slp...

Had our first TS group rehearsal this evening... imagine going to sch at a time pple are leaving sch. Anw after everyone trying out the parts we finalized on all the allocated parts... and guess who am I playing? Mary Warren. Apparently they felt dat no one can do the hysterical shoutings better than mi. Guess I got my practise from my 10 over years of screaming at my bro and sis. And seriously, after every run I got the floaty feeling in my head... imagine screaming lyk a madwoman at the top of ur lungs, being desperate, hysterical and surpressed at the same time. At the court scene I even have to do the "leading", in the sense that the group of gers will be acting lyk they're seeing Mary Warren's spirit up in the sky to get them, so whatever I shout, they will echo with mi, as if I've set my spirit on them. None of my lines are spoken on a normal tone... I'll need alot of honey water these days man...Another prob is wif the memorizing of lines... it's not easy, and I'm amazed how pple can memorize a whole play when I cant even do lyk, 1-2 short scenes? Grrr.... but I gotta admit I quite like acting... or maybe it's cos I'm acting hysterical... it's my forte to do shoutings... haha. But seriously, I feel dat one can realli learn alot through acting, lyk to becum more open and less conserved. Tell my frenz frm sec sch dat I'm acting, and they'll juz laugh into ur face. Tell them also I'm learning how to be a live singer now, and they'll be rolling on the floor in laughter. But I'm glad I'm starting to open up and give myself more opportunities to explore wif... everything's a good learning experience. And for now... I tink I should go back to memorizing my lines... not much time left. I couldn't concentrate when trying to memorize my lines juz now... and for few hours this is onli wad got into my head..."What'll we do? The village is out! I juz come frm the village, the whole country is talking withchcraft! They'll be calling us witches Abby!""Abby we've got to tell! Witchery's a hanging error, a hanging like they've done in Boston 2 years ago!"Yar... that's ALL I managed to memorize... still a long way to go xuan... Oh ya and before I forget, my mum juz walked into the room repeating "die la die la" (in chinese)... and I asked her wad thing die? She said dat my father's brother's daughter, (who is my cousin but I dunno who cos the last time I remembering seeing my dad's side of the family is abt 10 years ago), is marrying a malay. Den she warned mi never ever to marry sumone outside my own race, no matter how good he is... wonder wad will she do if she knew I was wif a malay guy before... tink she'll probably hit the roof...

My TS group is so screwed... supposed to meet this evening to start rehearsals... and we're already super late already since other groups have started rehearsals long ago. And then, one of them called mi in the morning to tell mi dat one of them sick, another got tutorial, another got dunno wad shit, so they're changing the meeting to tmr evening instead. The thing worrying mi most is that we haven even finalized our roles... I need time to memorize those lines! And hopefully I wun get a role with long long lines. Bloody hell... and tmr we're meeting at 6... PM. How darn late is dat? That's the problem when you have 9 gers in a group... so damn ma-fan one. I simply dun understand why are they so buzi... lyk all my lects and tuts have ended la... will be free every day till practical exam day. Juz pray we can hurry get it done, and done well most imptly...I tink I'm getting realli addicted to earring-making, and it's a really bad timing to get into this mood now. But nowadays it's lyk I cant even sit in front of the TV without doing something with my hands... my well, I came up wif this new series, and they're so pweeeeety!!!! Really...

Boy... I'm realli glad Minshen joined Arts Camp... tink the whole OG would die without him as our computer man man. I encountered sum bloody problems with my website, cos I wanted to add extra pages den v problematic... now he's helping mi do it properly... *phew*... realli muz treat him to a proper meal man. Anw he damn irritating la... say I should be using a better template... how I noe, inexperience den dunno anything of cos got template to use good liao la... den I tink cos pple pro huh, he buay tahan my plain simple website... say wan to help mi make a nicer and more pro one after his exams... woo hoo!!! Den now he complaining say he's lyk the tech-slave for we arts pple... haha.Anw, received a mail frm Lijia today, it's a collection of a few comic strips making fun of the marriage between Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles. At first you'd tink it's funny looking at those comic strips, and den I thought abt it, and actually feel dat I really sympathize with the both of them. On Saturday when the news of their marriage was shown on the news, I was at my aunt's and my relatives started giving comments lyk "aiyoh both so old already, one ah-pek and one ah-mm getting married" etc etc. But then they also added that actually they are very pitiful...It's not their fault they're in love (sounds lyk a part in Shakuntala??), why is it that the whole world is critisizing them? He met her long before Princess Diana, and frm my uncle who follows this drama constantly, Camilla actually comes from a very good family background, has very high intelligence and abilities. Diana was only a kindergarten teacher before she married Prince Charles. Maybe it was cos she's young and pretty... maybe. The 2 oldies have been in love for more than 30 years, and finally after so long, they can officially get married. I salute Camilla for dat... I dun tink I'll ever be able to wait 30 years for a guy, even if he may be the prince or stg. Come on la... instead of seeing it as them "cheating" on Princess Diana, why dun we see it as one cannot love to order? It's not their fault they're in love with each other!!! And ya also, it's not her fault she's ugly... cos apparently most of the cartoon strips in that e-mail revolves around that point. So poor thing...

Had a very fulfilling day yesterday... went for my Bollywood dance after missing a few weeks, it's getting more and more fun, and the participants are getting more hyped up and into the "Indian" mood. And now Dulcia joined also... was telling Jes it's so funny, I'm joining the thing wif one J1 fren, one re-J1 fren, one relief teaching cum NUS fren, and her NUS cum Soka frenz. That's how one's social circle grows I guess. Cryst was saying that now she would have met a lot of my other frenz. Den sumore she and Dulcia both St Nicks one... one yr her senior. So fun!
Den after that I went Harbourfront to study... wun say it's super fulfilling, but also cant say I never do anything, cos at least I managed to read through and understand one whole chapter of SC2101... on "sampling". Then I went to Bugis St to buy this container juz for storing beads and parts. It's this big rectangular container with many many compartments inside, so can put all my earrings barang-barang into it. I wanted to buy 2 juz in case, but one already has so many compartments, and guess wad? It's not enuff!!! Maybe cos I go buy all the rubbish beads frm all over the place. Now hoping dat this trip to China will cum across such beads shops. Sumtimes I wonder I go China wif my parents is to play or to go on a "business trip"... cos usually I only look forward to the shopping part of the trip, and especially keep my eyes wide open for anything that has prospects of having buyers back in yahoo auctions. Ok that's besides the pt... pt now is that my earring parts are all neatly kept in a big box now, and not all in small packets and stored in a big paper bag. Anw toking abt Bugis makes my blood boil... walked past the Sasa area and WTH... they're having this autograph session. Guess who!?! Bloody hell... our dear runner-up for S. Idol. I really really cant stand that untalented and totally wannabe "star"! Anw the scene there is really small fry compared to the usual type u see in shopping centres, for other stars. There's enough space for his fans to sit on the floor lyk obedient kindergarten kids looking at their teacher. And WTH... there are 2 gers standing behind him using papers to fan him la... skinny LOSER!
Singing class is good! Compared to last week whereby I walk in with a super black face, one that can be compared to Justice Bao, and had that face on for the whole session. Btw it confirmed was PMS last week cos I kena that thing right after the class. Today I was all smiles and damn hyper in class, even though they started late, lyk an hr (!?!), due to delay frm the previous class. And when we were supposed to present our song... the "grand teacher", who is the teacher of our teacher, came out and listened to us. Then after everything he commented on every one of us, our weakness, our strengths. So happy... I got the least weaknesses and most strengths... but that does not mean no weakness la. He said I concentrate so much on hitting every correct note I seem veri tensed... and he said since I'm already able to hit all my right notes I should concentrate more on how to add "feel" into my singing. Haha... and then he commented that the song I sang so old liao, why the hell am I singing such songs, at this age. Not that old wad... I prefer to refer to it as "classic". "Bie Wen Wo Shi Shui"... ring a bell? I tink almost everyone will noe wad's that song once they hear it, even if the song name may not ring a bell. Anw I'm kinda irritated wif this ger in my class... she's sec 5 this year, and whole day dress so jap pattern... looks very wannabe. But no, that's not the reason why I was irritated wif her. Cos everytime we need to present song she'll sing either Jap or Korean song, with funny jap dance moves. Then today the "grand teacher" and teacher decided to secretly record our voices while we were singing using their powerful sound devices. Then when they played it through to let us listen to our own voices, hers sounded so kiddish and high-pitched. Then so the teacher told her her problem, and told her maybe it may be caused by the songs she choose to sing, cos apparently jap singers sing with that kinda voice. (which explains why I always hated jap songs... especially pop songs... those gers sound more lyk they're shrieking than singing. Then nvm... after that she keep laughing and saying she sings lyk a baby. Then after the lesson she go up to ask the teacher how cum her singing sounds lyk a baby. Wah piang... explained already you still wan the teacher to explain again. And she seems quite happy of the fact she sings in a baby voice. Ok sorrie... I seem to always have sumthing against pple... not exactly an easy, nice person to please.
Oh ya and I missed out on one important pt. Received KP1's msg today while I was at Bugis, abt our presentation today. The arrangement is such that onli 2 of us, out of the whole grp present, which I tink is quite fair since the other 2 gers did a lot for the project la. So of cos the presentation comprises of all our different parts. Either KP1's maths failed lyk shit, or he purposely wan to take advantage of kind mi. He msged mi, say today's presentation I do the front part (which is the 2 gers' one), den he do his part in the centre, and I sum up with my own part and conclusion. HELLO!? Is it juz mi or does it seem lyk this arrangement means I'm presenting 3 pple's work and he presenting 1? But since it's the LAST tutorial of this module, I really juz heck care already and "barked" at him in my reply... stg lyk, "wah lau so ma fan, it's quite obvious either u do first half I do 2nd half, or the other way round. Change here change there for wad?!" Then he replied "but I already did notes for my part". Bloody hell... big deal ar? You wan I can make notes for the whole presentation ar... in the end he said we discuss tmr when we meet before tutorial. I'm in SUCH a good mood now... he better tink twice abt wadever he say or do tmr, cos we've reached the end of the sem, enough of this plastic smiles behind menacing faces... I dun have to see u for tutorials anymore, and even if I see u, it'll be in canteen or sum OG gathering. And even so, I am not obliged to put on a nice front anymore. Try to antagonize mi I'll brutally bite ur head off. On 2nd thoughts, no... I dun wan to ruin my beautiful set of teeth... cos most prob his head is hollow... my teeth's more important.

Got this frm an e-mail... and I tink it's realli funny... and the moral of the story is damn good... sum pple shld realli read this :Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven. Don't step on the ducks." So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on one. Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw. St. Peter chains them together and says, "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity with this ugly man!" The next day, the second woman accidentally steps on a duck, and along comes St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing, and with him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same punishment as the first woman. The third woman has observed all this and, not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, is very, VERY careful where she steps. She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on... very tall, tan, muscular, and with good hair. St. Peter chains them together without saying a word. The woman remarks, "I wonder what I did to deserve being with you for all of eternity?" And the guy says, "Well, I don't know what you did, but I stepped on a duck." Moral of the story:
B4 u comment on others, pls. take a good look at yourself first!!!

Ok I noe dat I'd entered a credit card information right at the beginning when I started setting up my auctions account, they said it was juz to make sure that I'm a genuine seller/buyer procedure... and dats abt it. And why are they asking mi to re-submit it now?? If they're gg to close down my shop I'll have it out wif them... write a complaint to yahoo.sg... and they prob now is I cant even rem did I use my mum's or dad's card information. I mean, wad's their bloody problem la... lyk as if at any point of my auctioning I needed to use credit card liddat.... GGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRR............. I'm REALLY irritated now... And in half an hrs time I'll be gg for my soci tutorial, and all the while I thought we din have to prepare anything today. Just found out we even had to bring our textbook along to do sum analysis for different authors or sum shit liddat... Juz wan lessons to be over... I'm gg to watch "The Wedding Date"...

The semester is coming to an end soon... and it seemed lyk it just started... there are classes which I'm glad are ending soon, as well as classes that I'll miss... lyk my bahasa TA class dat I'd juz finished. It's amazing how u'll bond better with classmates of sum modules compared to other modules. Maybe it's cos in bahasa class there's alot of interaction between students, there is a chance to joke arnd and laugh together, unlike compared to maybe a soci tutorial, where the only interaction u have wif ur classmates is to discuss abt how to conduct a qualitative interview. Juz now at the beginning of TA lesson this ger was lyk flipping thro her book and saying, "Oh, ur names are all over my book, so sweeet..." and giving this nostalgic look. Cos for our exercises we had to ask each other, sumtimes onli one fren, sumtimes many frenz, abt wad's their fav food, where they stay, what are their fav activities etc etc. Ya... can see everyone cant bear for the class to end. We had to do a poster for a S'pore "travelling agency" trying to promote our place in Indonesia... and we were laughing, plsying, as my grp decorated our poster lyk it's back to pri sch days. And after all the fun, the class ended, and I could hear sumone frm the other side of the room saying, "Huh... so fast end already ar?" Den sumone shouted frm my side of the room, "Ya, and this is the last lesson already". And frm the other side of the room... "WHAT!?!" And then u can see our faces start to stone... and for once pple dun rush to go home after the lesson... And then Ibu Agnes packed her stuff and walked out of the room, not before waving to us and saying "Mari". And I smiled at her and waved back... den I told my partner I'm so gg to miss Ibu Agnes, she's the best tutor I had in NUS... (No Xuan... u're NOT going to start crying in the middle of AS7 now...)I remembered this same thing happened last sem in my soci tutorial... before we left out tutor gave us a lollipop each... and wad's worse is cos I din noe that was the last tutorial... den I became so sad... But I tink this time is worse... maybe I'll take 2000 level bahasa, juz so I can get Ibu Agnes again... haha... but my class pple were saying 2000 level veri hard, den may affect the caps... haiz....Well... but there ARE classes u juz cant wait to say a big "BYE-BYE" to... lyk (a-hem) Computing. And for sum stupid reason, when I happily went for tutorial today tinking it'd the last tutorial. dat I've to find out there's another one next week! WHY issit dat the tutorials u dun wan to end end so quickly and bloody tutorials lyk this one cant seem to end??? Tink it's always the case in life...

I am so irritated now... juz checked my stupid NUS mail and got this bloody mail frm KP1, abt our presentation next Mon. Sumone pls tell mi next week is the last week of tutorials... or else I can juz go bang myself on the wall... Anw juz to ensure pple out there dat not all guys are bastards, assholes and jerks... was in my Bahasa class today and we're all lyk panicking before the test, den this guy sitting behind mi and my fren, who's also in my TA class (I juz found out today... lyk, almost the end of the sem... haha) and he offered us mentos, those kind of in a box one. Den cos there's exactly 2 in the box, juz nice for mi and my fren. Then after we emptied the box I was abt to put it beside my bag and throw it away later, he cut in and said to give him back the box he'll do the disposing. Wah nice huh... but I said nvm I can throw it la. Well... at least we noe that not ALL of them out there behave lyk babboons and chimpanzees...So bloody "dui" today cos the clerk frm NVSS called mi in the morning asking mi to relief, which I said I cant cos I got school. $65 gone. Then after sch, as I was walking to YIH for Peizhi's surprise bday celebration, den received a call frm NVSS again, asking mi if I can relief on Mon... Aaaargh!!! Dats giving up $130 altogether!!! Anw toking abt teaching I've been seriously considering if I'm gg to step into the teaching career in future... Cos apparently my bro started sch not long ago in YJ, and since it's YJ, there's many students frm Yishun Town Sec who're there... and many of whom have been taught by my eldest aunt before, according to my bro. Then when my bro told them dat he's my aunt's nephew, they started praising her to him, abt wad a good teacher she is etc etc. That was the first day. Then after a few days, news spread and more YTSS students found out abt it and they came up to my bro to tell him to help them tell my aunt that they miss her. And after hearing that I feel so inspired to teach again. I mean, I've been taught personally by my aunt before, and I can say that my Phy got a B3 cos of her, when I have been consistently failing it all along... and it was the last month before O's dat she started tutoring mi. I can toally imagine the gratitude they feel towards her... dats wad I call a successful teacher man. And my mum too... last time when I was teaching at NVSS, there were a few of my sec 1 kids who were taught by my mum in pri sch, and when they found out I'm her daughter they cum and tell mi how good a teacher she is, it's cos of her dat they got A1 for chinese (altho the rest of the subj got crappy results, which explains why they're in NA) etc etc.If I ever become a teacher... I wan to become that successful. Success is not measured by how high up the ranks are u, or how much salary u draw each month, or how many pple u have under u... it's how much u're able to create an impact on another individual's life. That's success.
