Dear friends,It has been nice knowing all of you here at Blogger, but I have decided to switch to another blog hosting service. Sure, Blogger has it's perks and all, cos' I know you all are still with good ol' Blogger, but the winds of change have blown and it's time for me to leave. (so dramatic.)Don't worry, I still linked all of you and this blog will not be deleted, just fossilized for my

It's been a long week, with the English drama competition and all. I'm pleased to announce that tomorrow is a HOLIDAY! (no choir!) :D (no offence, jess.) I don't want to go around spreading gloom by saying that the Mid-year is 35 days away! XD (correct me if I'm wrong)So I'll just say this, for inspiration to the rest of you:"Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice

Well, it's time to stretch my lazy fingers and get typing.First of all.. I have not blogged about exams because:When I'm 66, and I go back to review this blog (that is IF Blogger still exists) I don't wanna be looking at an "OH NO. MY EXAM IS TMR" and "OH YAY! FOR NOW, MERDEKA IS HERE" post.So... I have decided to not blog about exams. They depress me. Okay, maybe I'll blog about "LIBERATION FROM

At least read Kevin Cowherd's column every Tuesday and Friday. Seriously. I know, you don't get why I'm publicizing his column. Nope, he didn't pay me $25 to get this over with. This is a newspaper column review that I'm NOT getting paid for. (but I wish I was paid to do this..)Okay. Kevin Cowherd (funny last name..) is a genius.

The world dubs it 'Sweet 16', why, I don't know, but I think it's got something to do with those "strawberry-blonde" twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.I woke up on Monday morning, and was really surprised that for once in a really long

2008-01-02T00:32:00.000-08:00

School's starting tomorrow. Which is one of the reasons why we wanted to have this barbecue. Last year, if you recall reading this blog... I posted an entry on our barbecue. It's somewhere down there...So, we invited a few of our friends, but sadly, they couldn't make it. A lot of people got sick this new year. Missed out on all the lovely food. But never mind.. maybe there'll be one next year.

Each has a price to pay, which you can't get rid of unless someone offers to pay for you. I guess sometimes, no, numerous times, I feel that it's not mine. Fault, that is. Why am I talking about this? Our PMR trials are over and well, freedom still seems a few doors
