INSTRUCTIONS
1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn't make sense. NO CHEATING!
4. Tag 10 people to play this game too
5. Bold the questions and answers that swack


How are you feeling today?
Novo Concertante - Lollipop
- like a lollipop... i might have sucked out all the sweetness and taste it might have thats why im feeling quite shagged now at the end of the day. zzzz.

Will you get far in life?
Christina Aguilera - Genie In A Bottle
- hehe. mebbe a genie in a bottle will appear before me one day granting me 3 wishes which will lead me on in life...

How do your friends see you?
Avril Lavigne - Falling Down
- well well well... how shud i interpret this?? haha. i guess falling down is more of the norm.. but its the getting up part thats meaningful. and all that effort in getting up cant be possible without frens like u.

Will you get married?
Celine Dion - Then You Looked at Me
- i can interpret the 'then' in 2 ways... one which is the past tense 'then', the other which is the activity which follows 'then'. for the formal, i wud predict that i would not marry my first love, as the feeling's gone and its all in the past. for the latter, i wud say only after a tumultuous period of love-hate moments, THEN i wud finally settle down. or mebbe im jus thinking too much bleahx. =x

Will you ever have children?
Carmen Twillie - Circle of Life
- oooohhh.. interesting song to depict this qn. as the song title suggest, its about life. and i guess that means i would have children since the song's about new life on earth...but yet i can see the circle as an 0. which means 0 life... 0 children. LOL. ahha these interpretations will never end..

What is the story of your life?
Michelle Branch - One of These Days
- yup. this i would agree quite fully. if i were asked to describe THE moment in my life, i would probably say anytime, everytime... its true because my life story is all about 'one of the many days i lived' may it be happy or sad.. because every moment i treasure my life.

What was high school like?
Stefanie Sun - Hai Pa (scared)
- was it? hmm. to a certain extent yes.. some of the many things i did were motivated by fear... but it doesnt mean it carries a negative connotation or anything.. just that i tend to succumb when im enshrouded in this mist of uncertainty and unpredictability. its probably the fear of doubt. but nevertheless i definitely took away countless happy and unforgettable memories..

How can you get ahead in life?
Gwen Stefani - Crash
- LOL. yup by crashing straight into success it meant.. =p actually its quite true becoz im quite a crazy person who will dive into crazy ideas at the last min.. mebbe thats considered as 'crashing' too.

What is the best thing about your friends?
Hilary Duff - Rock This World
- DEFINITELY AND TOTALLY. without them my world wouldnt be a world.. but a lifeless planet i suppose. i can also honestly say im more of a frenship-oriented person.

What is in store for this weekend?
The Veronicas - 4ever - hmm. forever? yah it'll take me FOREVER to complete the still-accumulating-pile of hmk i have.. =((

What song describes you?
Jay Chou - Qing Tian
- so ironic to have a chinese song describing me rite. lol. to further emphasize the irony i wanna admit tt i had to ask shaun for the meaning of 'qingtian' before i typed this..so i THINK it means clear sky..not sure abt the clear part but hmm haha yup im definitely as dramatic as the sky.. one moment with dark clouds looming ahead the other smiling vividly with rainbows! hehe. that sounds so cliche but oh well its still true to a large extent.

How is your life going?
Katie Malua - Nine Million Bicycles - yup there are nine million bicycles in beijing... just as how people all around have been commenting on how random the lyrics of this song can get.. i am just or not more random. dun believe can ask yimei jiejie haha lol

Will you have a happy life?
Avril Lavigne - Take Me Away - yah im already having a happy and contented life from wad i see.. but it says take me away?? take me away and fly me to even greater heights? take me away frm my current lifestyle so i can be happier? these questions are inexhaustive..

What do your friends really think of you?
Hilary Duff - Dangerous To Know
- HAHAHHHHA LOL. this is hilarious... FRENS.. tell me honestly.. am i dangerous to noe?? =pp (haha mebbe to gerald coz according to him i turned his entire jc life upside down even b4 he spoke to me =p)

Do people secretly lust after you?
AJChoir - Bin-nam-ma - LOLOLOLOL. no link eh?? mebbe thru all the KUMKUMKUM.. or mebbe... like the song.. the is a terrible flood of people out there who lust over me waiting to crash thru the floodgates and drown me along... =xx

How can you make yourself happy?
Ashley Angel Parker - Let U Go
- hmm. letting go is a definite must must in life. nt too sure how this title relates though.


yup tts all hehe
do it also if u wan..=))



hehe wonder why i even blog now..
jus nothing to do then while
surfing bel, zhanny n saffie blog
saw this baby name thingy.
yea... here's mine when i inputed 'zhengkai'

The only potential weakness in these names is their tendency to being a little too emotional. If their energies and time are spent in cultivating their artistic talents then their beauty will shine. These people radiate love from their eyes. They respond to kindness with warmth and gratitude. Giving to others is their natural way. Their hearts respond with compassion whenever they see suffering. They are meant to administer to the needy and to inspire people with their love. This can be done either through the medium of music or through some humanitarian endeavour. If they lack direction or self-discipline then their lives can be difficult. In that case the emotion builds up as a craving for love and sex accompanied by feelings of self-pity. From an early age they desire to perform some meaningful work. They cannot do mundane or mediocre work without suffering. This is both an intelligent and idealistic quality that is strongly motivated by a humanitarian urge.

They are inspired when they are motivating others through their love, and terribly depressed when there is no meaning to their work. In the performing arts they can move people to tears because of the depth of their emotion, and their own tears flow quickly when faced with the suffering of animals, people or situations where there is a loss of love. They are very responsible and take seriously all their commitments. As caregivers they excel. Their love has a sincerity to it that is healing in itself. They feel our problems or sickness and their sympathy is genuine. Their challenge is not merely to be sympathetic but to help through wisdom, or suffer the consequences of being drawn into and influenced by others' problems. Their compassion is the ultimate human sentiment and must be directed by their intelligence. As teachers they could be inspired if they knew that the spoken word releases the greatest power of all when it is empowered by compassion and the wisdom of life.

Their difficulty lies in not being able to cut through the problematic areas of those they are helping, and not being able to distinguish between sympathy to the problem, and sympathy with the soul of another individual. It is hard not to fall in love with these people because they are so loving. Love is their greatest asset as well as their greatest liability. If there is not sufficient balance in the rest of their names they tend to live for love rather than love to live and give. It is in their giving that they discover the true essence of love. If they have not realized this then they are forever seeking a lover to satisfy a spiritual impulse. When they have discovered the universality of love they will never again suffer the loss of it or the insatiable craving for it. It is a matter of perspective. These people have a great potential for creativity and accomplishment because of their confidence and strong responsible natures, that is, if it is directed toward meaningful pursuits. Otherwise they can become complainers and worry over trifles. A constant fear of loss and self-pity can lead to nervous exhaustion and breakdown.

You Are a Dreaming Soul:-

Your vivid emotions and imagination takes you away from this worldSo much so that you tend to live in your head most of the time

You have great dreams and ambitions that could be the envy of all...But for you, following through with your dreams is a bit difficult

You are charming, endearing, and people tend to love you.Forgiving and tolerant, you see the world through rose colored glasses.

Underneath it all, you have a ton of passion that you hide from others.Always hopeful, you tend to expect positive outcomes in your life.

Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul, Prophet Soul, and Traveler Soul

today was a tiring day
pe was .....arhg
the wonderful frog jump thing he had to come up with
see la
now can even climb stairs properly
tsk.

homework is still tt same mundane pile.
at least it didnt skyrocket as yet
but so...

many other things are about to happen
best thing is we dont even noe wad to expect
so yah...

was smsing alot alot.
to zhanny
uncle
guowei
bel
=)) =((

btw im jealous chris, joey, chihong n xc managed to find some weird spot all the way frm admiralty mrt to watch the fireworks unobstructed. with no one else around. tsk.

haha. just tell urself u're fine and keep faith ya.
lets be in this together.
but irony still fills the air.


-following text will lead many into going ? unless u r specifically involved. thanks-


lets face it
we might just be the ones making things complicated
putting it thru a different obscure perspective that lacks reliability
and there you go. all sorts. of crap.

it wouldnt sound this simple
but some insist on such a presentation
i guess that only provokes that innert nature of pretence in us once again
aren't we just so used to such a habit it longer works but instead comes across as an obvious facade?

all figures of speeches almost seemed as though they point to the same gist.
its so scary its an understatement.
so what if the facade's scratched?
as though we cant be anything more than helpless?

truth isnt much so that we r in a pessimistic state
its just that we r going thru yet another phase
one that allows our rays of light to shine unpredictably once again
isn't that what we always are?

yes that is. we're still us.
at the end of the day, when the sun sets for eternity,
we'll still be together collecting souls of hope and destinies.

if it even remains..


PS. i'll add a word into the truth of phrase - ignorance is bliss. yes. ignorance is dangerously bliss.

i cant take any photos of any moments
coz my memory card is still with dear princess tingx!
lols.

had seniors farewell at my place yest.
initially i was apprehensive about 70++ ppl all coming to bombard my area lol
but i tot it was fun and crazy idea anywae
and hell yes it was.. ahhaah
i had like the entire sop and alto section of gals crashing my hse all the way at 9 in the morning~!

shaun and bel were the first j2s to arrive. showed them my room-ful of pressies
had fun making ppl feel bad LOL muahha.

was talking to my mum some days back..
she entered my room only to see it being crowded by mountains of pressies
then she asked why we so enthu about buying so many stuff and spending time preparing all these
without thinking i answered 'without them there wont be us'
haha it might sound random and 'oh-so-noble-of-them' and 'jus-so-exaggerated-of-me'
but hey. it jus came out. my mum was pretty intrigued by tt haha.
but she could understand the passion i had
she always did..

so yah hey. farwell went well. as long as they r happy im fine with anything.
the entire sat was spent with ppl i love.
if only tt lingering nagging of doing hmk at the back of my mind could disappear forever.
ahhaa!
oh and i think choir ppl are a creative bunch.. nvr had such interesting pressies with interesting meanings behind them b4!

now the keyboard's in my room
never had one before
and gerald was right. i had great fun with it
even though i dunno how to play!! lol

after farewell
zhanny, ah bu, mich, bel, qngwn and guowei stayed til 7pm

sorry!
haha! super busy with everything. ndp comm stuff. farewells. homework..
rahhh!

many many things happened in the past 10 days of course.
too lazy to recall all too ahha

some random points i have learnt

1. practise your tuckjumps becoz they will train u to have nice jumpshots
2. ignorance has never been more blissful.
3. farewells make you spent ALOT ALOT of money
4. never sleep at 4am and expect urself to wake up at 8 the nxt morning
5. having a rubber face is quite self-entertaining
6. but dont do spastic expressions suddenly or ppl with weak heart might really get a stroke. esp on the track when running. =x
7. dont waste time typing all this coz when you still have work to do

haha. wadever.
