Take a step outside your shell
To drink the secrets of the well
No longer will you fit inside
There's no more need to run and hide
It's easy now to be yourself
And set your fears upon a shelf
To close your eyes for just a thought
And reconsider all you're taught
Wishes made when you were young
Captured in the songs you sung
Freed your heart to laugh and play
Reminders of a former day
So now you look through open eyes
To ask the hows, the whens, the whys
To search the world to find your part
And free the dreams within your heart

hello. can go check this website out. hosted by keith's friend's girlfriend and her group of buddies. stuff there are affordable. not bad actually..
Haha, when she told me that she would be dancing for the Christmas party, I thought it was going to be soooo super embarrassing. Well, it didn't turned out to be as bad as I thought. She was relatively great. Haha. The one who stood out the most!
Since young, her outspokeness and extrovert personality have always overshadowed mine. Seemed like I was always in the background; the shy and quiet one. It was only after I entered secondary school that I didn't spend as much time with her and got to be more independent - I became more and more confident and could speak up. I'm not saying that it's because of my mum that my communication skills were lacking, it's just that I didn''t make the effort to create oppurtunities for myself to break out of the shell: to be who I really am. My mother was always there to provide the communicative link, I didn't have to do anything.
So, being the shy, quiet and narrow-minded one, I was cringing at the thought of having my mum to dance on stage, with all my friends looking on. What would they say?? Well, all I can say is, thanks guys, for the positive comments. I'll pass them on to my mum. :)
It was ok afterall. Allow me to step out of my introvert nature and embrace confidence and boldness! Lol. To see my mum for who she really is. She rocks my socks at times.

Min Yi and Claire came over to swim together. It was rather refreshing, haven't been swimming for a looong time. After an hour or so, I got a tan. That's super duper quick! Anyway, we headed down to BPP to get ice cream (ooh, it was lovely, shld try the dark chocolate one at the shop on level1). And then, we went to Bread Talk where we spotted a sign for part timers. Haha, we went in to apply and well, after much talking, Min Yi got the job, cos she's free during the hols. I'm not sure if the person will still contact me for the job, I don't really think soo.. Yup, if anyone is interested, it's...
BPP Bread Talk $4 an hr. 3-4 days a week. Mostly night shifts from 7-11pm. Most imptly, it's fun! You get to say stuff like, "Welcome to Bread Talk!"and "Please come again!" So fun right.. Hee..
These should be the impt details i think..
Min Yi's starting work on Wed. Can go down to see her! :)

Well, I wonder if current friendships can last past JC life. As the saying goes, "The only thing that is constant is change." People change, conditions change. Nothing will be the same forever on Earth. What will JC life be like? Like what Suzanne said, it will be a new chapter in my life. Hopefully, it will be a fruitful and fulfilling one. I wouldn't say that the future is bleak or bright, but it is beyond my comprehension, something which I do not have control of. It seems like I'm charging through a cloud, not knowing what's behind it, uncertain, doubtful.
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. " Matthew 6:34

Graduation - Vitamin C
And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives Where we're gonna be when we turn 25 I keep thinking times will never change Keep on thinking things will always be the same But when we leave this year we won't be coming back No more hanging out cause we're on a different track And if you got something that you need to say You better say it right now cause you don't have another day Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down These memories are playing like a film without sound And I keep thinking of that night in June I didn't know much of love But it came too soon And there was me and you And then we got real blue Stay at home talking on the telephone We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fairAnd this is how it feels
As we go on We remember All the times we Had together And as our lives change Come whatever We will still be Friends forever
So if we get the big jobs And we make the big money When we look back now Will our jokes still be funny? Will we still remember everything we learned in school? Still be trying to break every single rule Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man? Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan? I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye Keep on thinking it's a time to fly And this is how it feels
As we go on We remember All the times we Had together And as our lives change Come whatever We will still be Friends Forever
La, la, la, la: Yeah, yeah, yeah La, la, la, la: We will still be friends forever
Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now? Can we survive it out there? Can we make it somehow? I guess I thought that this would never end And suddenly it's like we're women and men Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round? Will these memories fade when I leave this townI keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

Choir: To the new committee members, thanks for putting in so much effort for the ROD. You guys did a fantastic job. Never thought that we would be doing an amazing race in Sentosa. My goodness, I remember walking from beach carpark to Siloso Beach, through the trail to Images of Singapore, back to beach carpark, then to Palawan Beach then finally heading back to Siloso Beach. And guess what? We walked the whole way! Poor legs.. Haha, but it was fun nonetheless. Mor: thanks for the CD and gifts, must have put in a tremendous amount of effort ya!
208: After 4 years, we're still so close and I'm really thankful for that. I miss the times where we would sit together just to chit chat. Those were the days ya.. I miss the people that I hang out with, I miss the times when we did things together and worked as a class, I miss cheering com... I just want to let you guys know that all of you have made a difference in my life, supported me when I needed it most and stood by me no matter what. Thank you so much! So pls do keep in contact k. And we must have a class outing every year!! I remember telling that to my p6 class, but now, we hardly keep in contact, hardly have class outings. Really hope that 208 will be different. Can you imagine us at a class outing 20 years later? That would be super cool! Uh huh. You guys rock!
4P2: Hey guys, thanks for being such a fun class! Had many good memories in the cabin. I'm really glad I was able to stick with the bunch- Joan, Cheryl, Jas and Weini. And it really helped me a lot cos I had people to stick to, if not I'd just be a loner in class. Sad huh. So thanks, girls, for being there. And for the rest of the people in 4P2, it's been great getting to know you all, especially darling Shu Qing! Hee hee..
Fishbone Comm: Helloooooo! Great work at Fishbone! I looove the chocolate cake. It was so good! Yummy! The waiters were all so helpful and polite (must have had a lot of training ya (:) and the bands were great, especially Danny's. Hee. Thank you, kitchen crew for all your delicious concoctions. Mm hmm.. Well, Life Hurts's tomorrow. Remember to invite your friends!
BP 06: Many thanks to the committee who made Prom Night possible. It was great! Haha, but it was a tad wild at the end with all the dancing. Didn't really manage to fit in. Haha, but the atmosphere was great. Come to think of it, it's the last time where we can all hang out together for the year, before we collect our results! (oh, the horror of horrors). It's quite sad right, sigh, nothing will ever be the same. On the way home last night, I was just thinking about BP and all the people that I've met. Should all aquaintances be forgotten and never brought to mind? Is that how things will turn out in JC? I really hope not. Keep the BPian spirit alive!
Will be uploading photos from Prom Night soon. :)
