Hi. I cant remember if I wrote about the NUS Geography Challenge but I think I did. But then again, I am too lazy to search it up. I am supposed to do homework and revision now, but I'm going to drive my mom crazy with dance music and waste time...
Ha. On 4th April 2009, 5 SMSS gals are going to embark on a vigorous Geo-Trail, without the teachers, without communication devices and only their legs and Ez-link cards. Yes. I AM going. YAY!! Not that I enjoy Geo that I decided to volunteer for this competition but because the teacher signed me up for last year but I withdrew cuz I had ballet. Though I do have ballet again, I desperately want to participate to leave a legacy, especially since its like the first time SMSS got into the second round. Haix....
Oh. I saw Zachary on the 190 today. He's VERY tall yet he carried such a puny bag, the type that can max, put water bottle.-.-'' This is not the first day of school leh... Should he be carrying at least a school book?! Anyways....
Now's the emo part.So skip it if you cant take it.
She used to be a very good friend of mine, but now I'm beginning to doubt her. Its as though she is trying to distance herself from me... But I have no idea why... Does she despise me because she is in a better class than me? Or is it because I know quite a bit of her that it scares her? Or that I do not treat her special one well enough to her liking? Or is it because of how I behave?
Then again, her friends are also treating me the same way. When I say Hi, they give me a look of despise and disgust... Even Emily can sense that they do not seem happy to see us or welcome us at all. Only when they need a favor do I actually see them approach me for help, but straight after I complete their wishes, I feel that we become strange yet again. Or when I ask of any favor, they are always unable to be there or help me. Some times I wonder if they really cannot help me or do they just not want to help.
I wish and pray that they will come clean with me. If they do not want to be friends with me, just say so. I wont get angry, just wish that we could stay as acquaintances.

Confi Camp
Day 1
Not a great start cuz was late for registration cuz of school's principal's talk... Got a ride in Claire's parents' car and managed to play roti prata with her cutie little sis!!! Lov ya Rose!! You're my idol!!! Anyway, when me and Claire first got out, the facil called us 'Polka dots!!'. Yeah. We were wearing uniforms but aiya, not need to call us like that... its not like we need to be noticed even more.... Unfortunately, I was placed in his group. Yes. The one who openly mocked us. And he did continue the mockery for the rest of the camp...
Later we had some night trail in which we had to find out about god's Gifts or sth... at one station, I think it was knowledge or whatever, but we had to find 20 differences in a picture... He called me not to participate while he continued to call me polka dot and comment on my height. Yes I'm only 146... Way shorter than the others but there's no need to call me the little girl...... Arrghhh.....
Found out that I was in another sleeping dorm as claire, mavis and Marcia!!! They they are in a dorm all together..... And everyone that I know is sleeping in that dorm.... Sulks* So I went in to do some nonsense and tied my hair in some crazy hairstyle that made people notice me as well as talk to me...
Day 2
I woke at 6.30. had some long P&W session that I thought would never end... Breakfast was super pathetic... Then had to prepare for this skit... only 2 ppl were enthu, including ME! anyway, I led half a group to do the good side of money and resources(our topic). Not bad! anyways, had this interview with Father John-Paul and he was like promoting CJ... Not that its bad but I thought it was supposed to be an interview on whether we are suitable for confirmation...
Left campsite for ballet when the confi ppl when for a walk to lil Gui Lin... thank God I didn't follow... I had time to play hopscotch with Juliana cuz she wasn't bathing when They returned from the walk!!!we ended up jumping on one leg for 1.5+ meters.... haha!! It was rather hilarious....
We had confession in the evening... I haven't gone for confession in like 6 years and am damn glad I went for it... I feel tons lighter now... Anyway, while waiting for my turn, I heard some passerby use the F word about 7-8 times in 30 seconds... So freaky!!! Then. I had an emotional breakdown in front of the priest just because I said the opening sentence wrongly... Don't know why I couldn't stop crying fr what felt like 15 mins but I did...
Day 3
Woke at 7.15am... Assembly time was 7.30am. Claire and Mavis wanted to wake me but didn't know which bag was I in so they didn't. anyway, assembly time was extended to 8am... Cuz the facils couldn't wake up.Haha! What I could rmb only was that during P&W session, we were standing at the back and the SJI guys were so nice, they let us stand in front of them.... so sweet rite?
Later, we had to do clean up. We were told by our facils that we were cleaning up the big toilet where it was the filthiest!! Damn lucky they lied to us. that is the only time I ever felt so happy that someone lied to me... We had to clean the AV room. short and cool job cuz it was an air conned room. We had P&W again then we were supposed to have mass but the priest could not come cuz a tree fell in front of the church driveway... so we were released early!!! YAY!!
Ooh! I forgot, when we were taking a group video, Timothy,the group facil, said "Shermaine is short but Josephine is shorter!" Thanks so much! The video is gonna be viewed during the comfi dinner if I'm not wrong... that's so embarrassing!!!This is most likely the last time I am attending a church camp... so sad... Loved such camps with the P&W with such cool members. Miss you ppl so much!!!
Now, back to civilization... Haix...

Pulau Ubin + Sports Day
Hi. Blogger kena some problem cannot upload photos... will do it in face bk. anyway, its photos about my filming trip to Pulau Ubin for the Geo-Ad. My cam doesn't have all the videos, and pics, mostly its with Janice and Wang yee but will upload as much as possible.
Ms Choo was so nice she paid for the entire group's lunch and drinks(For me and wern-li only), later on she paid for ice cream and drinks too when we at the Pulau Ubin village.
Some how the group manage to force me to tie two ponytails to the off shore island. I haven't done it since like...forever? anyways, they kept on referring to me as a little girl as had to climb a tree and play around in the sand as a child. yep. once the video is with me, it be going up.
We 'bribed' three shopkeepers to do a skit for the video. The first auntie was really nice, she even memorized a script for us, but she was soo cute lor...(dont get me wrong but she looked so adorable.) It wasn't her first time though, she was featured in a show before... The we filmed a Malay couple talking "Friendly" but all the man could talk about was what the wife was going to cook for dinner, Mee Siam? Mee Rebus? So funny! But they let us film a cold scene in their shop house. So nice rite?!
Any way on the bum boat trip back, Wernli and I were taking pics of both of us making funny faces. Unfortunately, Wernli has a rather stiff face and cannot do faces. We showed them around just for laugh and Ms Choo said that that wasn't me....
Oh Ms Choo got lost traveling to Changi and we spent about 20+ mins circling Clementi, finally we had to get help from Vanessa's Dad. Then we got lost again when she had to drive us to Raffle city to film some more... Wow...talk about female drivers...
Anyways... Had a great day except for being almost late because of Ai. She was supposed to meet me at 6.50am at the Clementi Station but at 7.10, she was still at Bona Vista... Anyway, I left first,I so don't want to do CWO on the last day of school...Ewww.... but I nearly got knocked down by a car while attempting to jaywalk and tripped and dirtied my shirt and skirt as well as a small insignificant injury to my knee. But I got there JUST IN TIME!!!
Oh and Tolley won Cheer leading!!!! Though the dance wasn't a cheer lead type of dance, it was way more synchronized than the rest and had a bit more stunts, thus we won. I still fee the Tolley leaders don't have the complete control over us and there was the Indian girl,think shez sec 3, tried to act as the leader and try to be cool but she was way way horrible. In fact she cant shout and she didn't have the X factor and was so irritating. So.. I just went down and asked her to zip it. Kinda rude but effective.
gtg. have stretching to do... teacher's complaining about the loss in flexibility already... Haix... Here we go again...

Every One Lies.
Warning: Angry posting. cant take it, go else where please.
Just discovered last week that this person that I've known for almost one-third of the years I've lived, has been delivering sweet lies to me.
Just realized how true it is when people say "Every One Lies".
I do not deny that I have told lies before but the shock and aftermath of finding out that a person has been keeping up her strong profile of lies makes me wonder what type of person she really is deep down inside.
Some times, I feel that she is just an acquaintance even if she is within my grasp most of the time.
Maybe we're just not meant to be friends? maybe its just me? Maybe its because of outside influence? Or is it the time of the month ?(doubt so...)
Perhaps there is a perfectly structured answer that she has crafted? or is it the raw truth? Sometimes i question the face in front of me? Is that really her? Or another facade?
I wonder if I should ever trust her again? Maybe putting too much of my trust, having overly high expectations of a friendship is making me crumble like an over baked cookie.
she appears to be always there. But is she really there for me or is it just her nature to ask what's wrong?
My friends are now her chums, i'm not even sure if I exists in the darkest corner on their minds at all. Or do I only reappear when they are in times of need for a favour.
Who are they Who is she? Why am I feeling the way I am now?

Over the Moon
hi. Many a times, I have visited this page, yet did not possess the spirit to pen a few things down as I felt life was so bleak and monotonous, everything has been written for us. But, now, I realized that life is boring so that a single small light can make your day. It may not be a philosophy or whatever but that's EXACTLY how I feel right now.
Last Saturday, I went for this NUS Geography Challenge. It was rather eventful with me arriving 10 mis before registration(as always),Wern li and Wangyee coming just on time and Sheryl Foo coming 45 mins late and Janice who forgot to wake up that day and made us panic like hell, but she made it(thankfully).Phew.
Then comes the bomb. We had an 30 MCQ questions individually before coming together for a application Essay. Out of the 30 MCQ questions, we only knew how to do 10... can u imagine? 10/30 qns... thats like 2/3 of the paper.... any way we tried our best and... yep no regrets. For the application question, we came up with an extremely creative answer which(we believe) pulled us up. It was to build floating museums on the Singapore River and have its wall-banks pasted with murals. Kinda dumb but its feasible and new. So...
WE GOT INTO THE TOP THIRTY SCHOOLS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NEXT ROUND!!!!!
out of 86 sch... its counted as an accomplishment since we knew practically next to nothing and st.margs has only managed to get into the second round once before... so YEP! I'm over the moon!
I'm too happy so here's abt SPA:
Physics- Totally horrible, even needed the teacher's help... lol.. to turn the retort stand clamp key... Haha... too weak...
Chem- Errr.... not that bad but had to do an experiment 3 times and faked results...hehe.. I noe not good but yup I did it...
