hm this year's cny feels different. not so festive. all the visiting n stuff seem to be over so quick.. but they were nice while they lasted :)... how could collecting ang baos not be fun??? haha. every year my sisters n i always get weird n interesting comments frm relatives.. amusing. didnt know my hair dye was so obvious though. didnt think relatives or family friends would even notice. oh wells. thought i'll do a list of some of the comments i can remember. haha.
comments frm relatives n family friends this yr:
1) can tell from ida's legs she's a sportswoman.. (!!!)
2) same height as sister already ah.. (=>)
3) u're the eldest right??
4) do your friends tell you you look eurasian??
5) your sisters and u can all go model for hair salon!!
6) inez n u hav the same hairstyle right?? just that the parting's to different side right? (-.-)
ahem n my sis had to go on bout her hair being dyed at REDS n mine's not. fineee.
oh yeah. think my cousin in law has this dreadful misconception of me being the most hardworking among my sisters. ah the horror. when he went "ida's the smartest among you all three right??" my sisters' faces all kinda turned black. lol. n obviously completely oblivious to my sisters' reaction.. he went on "ida's also the most hardworking one right??" !!! haha. all 3 of us were laughing our heads off when he said that. i think he assumed he was right so he went on bout hardworking being a virtue n stuff. haha. ooops.
relatives n family friends just came over to visit just now.. hm. talked to andrew.. he said acjc's just really far. haha. n he didnt like rjc cos it was full of nerds. aw well. they were suggesting a leongs versus tans tennis challenge. n my dad said he wouldnt wanna bet on it -.- whateverrrr. anyway cny's been pretty alright.. nice break frm tjc. heh.
mm pictures on webshots hav been updated.. misc folder.. n there's a new folder. yep.

i havent blogged in awhile.. just been too busy and lazy to update i guess. past week's been really exhausting.. what with training n school.. training's thrice a week.. and every training is mentally and physically draining without fail. especially wednesday's training.. was downright awful. yesterday was tjc's chinese new year carnival.. invited thong's tuition ppl to visit.. hav a look.. kwann..audrey.. shanelle.. deanna.. all came too. glad to see them.. anyways the carnival was pretty sad i think? i mean.. there were too few stalls.. got smashed with whipped cream THRICE. ugh. n i washed myself after each time cos i didnt think i'll actually get smashed again. arh. some guys just dont listen do they. oh wells. i smelt of cream for the whole night. eeek. the tuition ppl.. 8 of us in all.. went to the food centre near thong's place for dinner.. it was pretty nice. haha steph was taking advantage of the guys.. exploiting them. hehe. then geraldyne joined us.. had dinner together. went to thong's place.. mr thong n his wife was pretty amusing.. talking to us bout relationships n marriage.. haha. stayed there till bout ten plus.. thong gave us ice cream n stuff too. haha. too bad no ang bao. hmph.
had training today.. at jurong.. was severely dehydrated cos it was freakin hot. mid day sun. was quite tiring... then went out after that.. was really nice spending more time with dee... though she said she didnt know i was "so full of shit". ahem. totally freaky when we said the same stuff unrehearsed together. weirrrd. both of us just cracked up.. lol. two crazy girls at pastamania. hm.

this's been a pretty tiring week.. exhausting in fact. had training with our old coach for the last time.. tues we meet the new coaches.. and we played tennis again. wednesday.. we had our first training with the new coaches. honestly, the new coaches scared us out of our wits on tues when we met them.. the talk bout all the physical conditioning and really intensive trainings.. n bout going to JURONG to train every saturday.. a test of commitment. wed's training was tiring.. considerin i hadn't done physical in ages.. im terribly unfit. had pe on wed too.. pe plus training.. was freakin tired when i got home. pe was alright i guess... just ran 1.6km then did some push ups n situps... it's probably gonna get tougher next lesson though. oh wells. wed we played mini tennis for like an hour.. supposed to control our shots i guess... aim was to hav long rallies.. yep. before that we ran 1km while holding our rackets in one hand n balancing 5 balls on the racket.. supposed to train arm strength n fitness. after hitting mini tennis.. did some more fitness.
there's training 2mr again. and saturday. YAY. man am i excited.
oh yeah had my first pe swimming lesson on tues.. it wasnt as bad as i thought though. perhaps cos we got out of the pool earlier so we got to bathe.. there was a really long queue winding all the way out of the toilet.. was quite bad. it was alright i guess.. though im not looking fwd to it next wk.. quite inconvenient.
nowadays sch ends at bout 3.15.. thank gdness i don't hav to take chinese anymore so i get to go back earlier than the rest on a few days.. man.
anyways tj's having a carnival next thurs... bout 5 to 7 i think. ppl come if u can :)

ok so nothin much happened last wk. with the exception that i fell ill. that's actually ALL that happened last wk cos i couldnt do anything. sucked. i thought it was just a passing thing.. like sore throat n thats all.. but er. no. i got phlgem n cough.. on my younger sis's birthday :(. how sad is that. i couldn't even wish her happy birthday properly with my voice sounding utterly awful. had swensens for dinner on that day.. nearly froze to death during dinner. but food was nice :). got worse the next day.. had high fever on wed.. sucked. missed like 2 trainings.. anyways trained today. it was alright i guess... sun was just freakin hot... i really need to get well FAST.

quoting frm hx.. one cheer was
"do u think i give a dam*
don't care, heck care
do u think i give a dam*
i dont give a dam*"
we learnt mass dance after that.. there are bout 3 dances to learn. we learnt "dhoom" first.. its a couple dance. hm. i prefer individual actually. haha. dhoom's pretty cool though.. bollywood style.
wednesday
we had tj monopoly.. mainly the eastern part of singapore? kinda. anyway my cg was kinda all round east coast.. was tiring. but a lil fun.. getting wet at the beach n stuff. but i got pretty stoned halfway thru.. cos i was kinda tired frm running frm tj to ecp.. then along the ecp.. to vj.. yeah. after that we had cca exhibition.. a pity it rained. couldnt hav tennis trials. then mass dance again... did "lets get retarded"!. really like this dance. haha.

then we went to SUNTEC city.... the entire j1 cohort for tjc 2006 mass danced around the fountain of wealth.. at bout 8+.. was really cool. took lotsa pics n stuff.. then all of us ran round the fountain n cheered our lungs out. went home at bout 12am.. it was really really cool. after that had a drink with some of my OG members.. my OGLs rock. haha really. kah sing is super CRAP n egoistic. haha n andy is just kinda a narcissist. in a cute way. haha. xiwei.. tennis capt... sherman.. cheer till voice gone hoarse.. marianne.. really sweet girl.. yi qun.. ex-tkgian! there's also edmund.. n kaifong of course.
