ok first of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY YAN ZHI!!i promised to post a nice pic of him haha..nice rite?ok any fan mail please direct to
*******@hotmail.com dun bother me i dunno anything ahahahah x.X
it's yan zhi's birthday today(or when i wrote this haha), and against farmily tradition(>.<) we celebrated yesterday haha. But we had the full day, since it was a school holiday, which is bonus yayyeee =) Anyways, met kia at bugis first, and we saw this scary saudi arabian woman( i think) sitting along the steps, so scary cos she was wearing all black and only had her eyes peeking out through her clothes. We didn't even notice her at first cos we were chatting away, then suddenly we realised got this scary lady sitting on the steps and we hurriedly walked off. In kia's words, she looked like an ahhhhh! t*rr*r*st(buy the vowels yrself). hehehe
After that, we went to meet the birthday boy at bedok(sorry yzhi!made u wait hahaha:/) and then we headed down to east coast after phay joined us. SOME very smart person *ahem* told us that 401 can go down to east coast, but after like 20 mins of waiting(and listening to yzhi's new ipod nano whee!=)), yan zhi helpfully pointed out that the bus service only works on weekends and public holidays GGXX. -.-'' hence, we ended up taking a cab down to east coast. which is a good thing anyways, since i was lazy to walk HAHA.The cab driver was really friendly and we took lotsa stupid pics, think got one of the cabbie too haha.. will post once the birthday boy sends me hehe.
We rented bikes and cycled around east coast. yay! haven't done that in a looooooong time man really miss it =X haha. sad thing was, we didn't fully utilise the time, cos we had lots of sidetracks like drawing stupid cakes and birthday messages and eating ice-cream, so we didn't manage to finish cycling through the other end of the park=( boohoo.. but there's always next time haha..after cycling, we went to sit at the breakwaters to take more stupid pics and talk crap haha felt like the old days agn =)
then FINALLY, his majesty ben tan decided to grace us with his presence haha. went to meet him while the others sat at the breakwaters to distract yan zhi, and the two of us attempted to think of a way to bring the cake over nice and lighted. Sadly, mission failed :/ we didn't even manage to light the cake cos the wind was too strong. haha but its ok, he "blew out" all the candles anws haahahaha ;) After that, according to farmily tradition, the cake fight commenced. haha. supposedly, the birthday boy was to get hit first, but then phay the backstabber attacked ben and the guys got into a flurry of cake attacks. of course the girls weren't to be spared, stupid ben chased me all ard before smashing the biggest piece onto my face, i swear i couldn't even see. and then i walked back towards yan zhi who pretended to offer me a piece of wet tissue. thinking that he wouldn't be tt evil, innocent me actually believed him, only to get more cake on my face -.-'''''' BACKSTABBER =P
After the creamy cakefight, and with the beautiful sea spread out in front of us, it was of course natural to start dunking ahahahah. Everybody attacked the birthday boy first, then the guys started pushing each other while the girls ran to safety. But we still weren't spared in the end, although we put up a good fight haha. xiao mei and i clung tgt so they couldn't get either of us, cos we'd help each other haha.sister spirit man!i think they spent around half an hour before i decided to just give up, since they wouldn't let us off till we went in, and ben promised to go in with me anws. but of course, the farmily guys are evil twits who dun keep their promises, therefore only i got flung into the sea -.-'' and poor kia got thrown in by phay too. dun worry xiao mei i promise i will get revenge muahahahaha *evil laugh*
anws it was really a happy happy day, although we didn't get to play the sparklers i bought hmph haha... nvm save for nxt time =)

today was a bad day.
Ms goh passed away today.
I know we used to niao her and get irritated at her all the time because of all her ridiculous rules comments and demands. i remember what pi told me in sec 3 when i just found out that ms goh was gonna teach us chem." Ms GK Goh?! whoa you die." i remember the horrifying stories of how she used to torture the b band girls till they cried for mercy and how she used to make everybody buy highlighters and pens so that they could all highlight the textbook and lines of notes in the exact same fashion.just they way she wanted it.
perfection. she was always like that.
I remember the trepidation the day we first met her. The class had heard so many horror stories from seniors. and then in comes this mousy old lady with her long pants and flower print shirt. i remember her gold-rimmed spectacles, her painstakingly permed and dyed black hair, and those drawn on eyebrows of hers. I know it isn't exactly a picture that brings to mind affection, but that was the way Ms Goh was. She kept people at a distance with the way she lectured and reqiured us to do the weirdest things for lessons. I remember how she used to minus marks and scold us for writing ppt as ppt. see the diff?it's the fullstop.
she used to write things like "don't understand at all. never pay attention. see me!" and everybody would end up with a see me at the top of their assignment page and then p 1,3,4,6... on the top right corner in red.anybody who managed to get away without a see me is a complete god to be worshipped. haha.
But Ms Goh was that way. she'd go on forever about the nitty gritty things and its precisely cos she cares and is willing to put in the effort to help every single one of us score, that's why she rambles on. She always put herself ahead of others. always put values above everything else.
Ms Goh got cancer a few years back, before she started teaching us.In 2004, she had a relapse.Everybody was shocked. there were rumours flying around about it, but nobody was sure. She began taking leave, and each time she didn't come to school we always felt happy to have escaped her class. thinking back, i feel guitly. Ms Goh is somebody with a heavy sense of responsibility. She'd never take leave for no reason. She'd never be absent from anything without a perfectly good reason. and when she left for a few weeks, we knew it was serious. The school got together to pray for her, and somehow she pulled through, healthy again from a second recovery.It was really a miracle, and she came back to school quickly after that. But cos of the heavy responsibility of taking on so many students in her poor health, she gave up on the O level batch of students. which was us. She apologised over and over again for abandoning us halfway through our O level year. I remember seeing her frail silouhette in the canteen ever so often. Queuing at the yong taufu stall. Seeing her wear her silk scarf always made my heart cringe. She looked even smaller, and less guarded. Such a strong woman in such a frail shell. I'd be afraid to go talk to her, always. Like oys said, she used to pick on me like crazy. Now that she's gone, i really do miss her.Sometimes when you get too complacent, you take things for granted. I knew ms Goh might pass on soon. But always seeing her so strong and so optimistic, it never really settled in. How big an impact her illness had on her.
Imagine not being able to see her again. I can't. I thought she'd always be there.I always thought When we go back to visit we can complain to her about how difficult jc chem is and how her notes made it all better. just the way she used to tell it to us in class, about how her old girls always used to say that to her. Now we'll never have the chance. I wish i'd had the guts to talk to her all those times i saw her. I didn't know it'd be the last.but its too late now.i'll miss the way she goes " don't be yaya!" and she'd swing her hands around in her old lady way. i'll miss the way she used to lecture us on manners and on helping others. I don't know how she used to say it in such a wrong yet such a right manner.I'll miss seeing her red scrawly handwriting, "not listening again in class, chee jia" beside my perfectly copied out answer. I'll miss her picking on me when i yawn in class. I'll miss her crazily intricate powerpoint slides with the dozens of bad colour combis. I'll miss seeing her tiny hunchbacked figure patrolling around school. I'll miss her saturday 6 hr long makeup lessons in the ava room. I'll miss how she used to order food for us just for those long makeup lectures. Nasi Lemak and Bee Hoon.She always used to ask us what we preferred and make a tally with hock seng, or the malay stall we all love for those fried chicken wings. I'll miss the breaks where she'd tell us to sleep on the ava room chairs so that we'd have the energy to go the full 6 hours. I'll miss her saying that we're her children. there're so many things and the list could go on forever.
I don't know if i should feel happy or sad.That she's finally out of all this pain. But she's gone on to a better place. Definitely. Imagine her somewhere happy, playing with the angels and cherubs, way up there in heaven. Perhaps it was the right time for her to go after all.

why is everything so depressing?
everywhere i look, any place i turn, every face i see just spells D-E-P-R-E-S-S-I-O-N.
