restless minds & tired souls

christine's feeling slightly sad.
i don't know why i mind so much,
but it seems like the people i love have been letting me down a lot these days.
i'm sorry i lie, i'm sorry i'm a liar, i'm sorry i lied.
i'm afraid of being alone.
i miss 6A'06/P6 clique/proper conversations with xl
yes, i'm a sucker for nostalgia.

william shakespeare should reincarnate and rewrite his whole series

macbeth is pretty interesting, i guess.
if only it were in modern english and more understandable.
i had change my reading places a few million times to get comfy with the book.
maybe it's just me, but different books need different positions to get the full reading benefits.
ah well, whatever.
back to macbeth :]

okay. major freak incident just now.
was really deep into reading macbeth
when i heard a knocking noise and the doorbell.
and then i went to the door and there was nobody there.
damn scary.
and i didn't dare to open the door cos there's nobody but me at home.

currently feeling really out of breath,

it's like i'm missing something;
something really important, but i can't remember what.
it's like i've lost some part of me.

just get lost

i just went through my whole archives for this blog.
i take back what i said about loving 3B more than 2C.
i bet if i cried in 3B, nobody would notice, unlike cresmic.
i don't know. i just miss having people to fall back into, and interesting things to talk about.
it's just really really putting off to hear about your ex-classmates talk about how funny their class was;
who was dating who in the class;
how (insertnamehere) did something so stupid everyone laughed;
how they fit in in their class.
and here i am just sitting in this desolate place listening to the teacher ramble.

it really doesn't make much of a gossip topic, y'know?

but in the end, everyone ends up alone

3B sucks hardcore.
I'ld give anything to get 1C back.
hell, i don't even mind having 2C right now.

i mean, face it,
Cresmic phototaking was always pure fun:
no matter how screwed our photos were,
no matter where we're placed, it doesn't matter.
Cresmic chalet had almost full attendance,
minus the few who had to return to China.
Cresmic halloween party had people dressing up and a proper bbq.
Cresmic lessons were full of nonsense and breaks were filled with TorD/fangirling/shouting across the class.
Cresmic interclass really involved the whole class.

Cresmic felt like home,
but 3B is like... hopeless.

which class has a name like BANANAS?
there's no meaning to it other than this yellow disgusting fruit.
(i'm sorry i do hate bananas oh so very much.)
which class tee took forever to make, costs a hell load, and doesn't even last long?
which class had so little supporters during interclass,
that there wasn't any motivation for us to stay on and play?
which class's class blog is dead and no one bothers to check it?
which class chalet has FOUR people attending and has a 25bucks per person, non inclusive of food & activities fee?
which class makes absolutely no sound during lessons?
which class saps the whole zi-high energy from you cos they're just so fucking quiet and dull?
which class hates school celebrations cos they're a waste of time and rather have formal lessons?
which class doesn't even bother to bond with each other?
which class sucks so much, there's really no point in calling those 36 people a class anymore?

oh right, my class.

----------

y'know what?
next year let's just choose all the unenthu people to be the class comm,
let them know how hopeless it is to try to bond this class.
they can be the ones planning the class outings (mugger dates, perhaps),
they can go do all the seating arrangements shit
(doesn't matter who you sit with, they're probably clinging on to every shit that the teacher is saying and can't be bothered to listen to you talk),
they can do all the mass smsing/the events planning/announcements making.

it wouldn't matter how screwed the class becomes:
it wouldn't get any worse than this.

oh, and you know what?
i have suggestions on who to choose.
(they'll fit the role perfectly)

----------

no, this is not a hate post.
this is just me voicing out what i really think about 3B as a whole.
i thank God that there are people inside who are like me,
and it's really nice to know that i'm not just some weird over enthu person ;)

sending my ♥ out

i'm really proud of the standard ones today.
i never knew that it was this satisfying seeing them improve beyond our expectations,
and i never knew how much i actually cared for them.
Standard ones, if you ever see this post, keep up your spirit today,
with this kind of spirit, i'm sure that you guys can achieve great heights ♥

on the other hand,
i really miss the standard threes.
i never thought that cheering was important; that just sitting down and whining to each other was important,
but these three weeks apart from each other,
it made me realise that whatever joy we get from our cadets is really different from what we get from each other.
standard threes oh nine, serve with pride|together as one (♥)

smc one, i love you guys.
even though we quarrel and fight and all that stuff,
deep down inside, i think that we make a really nice team,
and that we can tackle all problems we face, yeah ;)
many ♥s for you guys: ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
one for each of us.

promised pixels. xoxo

saved this as draft last night and forgot to post it.



i'm tired of seeing all my friends walk ahead of me and never turning back.
life's just one long rat race, ain't it?
it's just running to have the highest popularity, having the bests friends.
studying at the best college, getting the best job.

it's really putting me off that the people i trust are the people i should beware most,
and that best friends are those you don't know well.
ah, it's just one big confusing concept that i don't want to understand.

-bubbly, colbie caillat

feeling not bubbly at all now:
woke up at 0530 with a splitting headache and nearly died trying to go back to sleep.
woke up again at 0900 with a dull ache in my head, ate breakfast and studied geog.
1500 still awake, and covered industries, global industrial shift and tourism.
only population, urban studies and migration left.
gah. my nose is still feeling really bad, and i can't remember anything that i studied.
great achievement, christine.

oh, and my house has a new tv and i don't like it.
it's too big (and i thought people liked big tvs) /:
ah well. back to migration.

The Storyteller: truths, lies & in betweens

it's like trying to get a picture out of your head, but never getting it right.
it's like finding the right words, but using it the wrong way.
it's like confiding to a friend, and hearing him spread the rumours.
it's like being confident for a test, but seeing the failing results.
it's like seeing the world in black and white, but ommiting the grey areas.
it's like searching for your greatest desire, and finding out that it's been with you the whole time.
it's like singing your favourite song, and realising that you got the lyrics all wrong.
it's like solving a math equation, but using the wrong formulae.
it's like dancing with an injured ankle; writing with an inkless pen;
it's like spelling without alphabets; talking in different tongues.
it's like i'm the storyteller, telling the truths, lies and in betweens.

slightly salted tears

i'm feeling so much better now after that good long cry.
i wasn't even crying for me, hell, i was crying for the broken hearted.
for those who were here and then left,
for those who left and came back,
for those who never said goodbye.

i haven't felt such a clear head for so long:
life's been a real bad tease these days - i always had to be the person everyone expects me to be, and i'm afraid to fall of their expectations, though i'm tempted to just blow my cover.
there's been too much deception, too many lies;
so much indecisiveness, so many wrong choices.
but now, it seems clear that it doesn't matter what everyone else says or does.
i am me. no one can change that, not the people who backstabbed, not the people who left, not even the dear voice in my head that keeps shouting the worse thoughts out.
it seems as though i killed that voice.
and i have no idea whether that's a good thing.

i kinda miss those serious heart-to-heart talks i have with xl:
the ones where i'm crying here, and i know he's there to make me smile.
the ones where i could embarass myself real bad and know he won't bring it up ever again.
the ones where i never had to pretend to be okay.

but we all have to grow up and move on, don't we?
we all have to pick up the pieces and try to fix them back together.
we all have to leave a part of us to grow a new one.
it hurts, but it's for the better, i guess.

so here's saying goodbye to the fuckers that left because they were afraid of the consequences of their mindless actions.
here's saying goodbye to those that never said goodbye.
here's picking myself up from the ground, and not looking anywhere but away from you.

i'm not sorry even if you are.
you deserve everything, it might not be coming, but i believe someday, everything would come to light.
just you wait, my dear,
because revenge was never meant to be taken directly: it comes in separate doses.

For(get)giveness

God made Man in the splitting image of Himself, thus God made Man able to forgive.
I can forgive you, but I secretly hope that this would haunt you forever.
Sometimes I think I should just tell everyone what happened, ruin your image, etc.
Sometimes I think I should tell my mum.
Sometimes revenge does sound sweet.
Sometimes, forgiveness doesn't come from the heart.

So fuck you, and fuck off.

You're my Prince of Peace


like a child letting go of a helium balloon:
we thought we had it all,
clenching the little ribboned string in our tiny fists,
thinking we'll never let go of this tiny piece of happiness in our hands.
and then something happens that makes us loosen that death clench,
and up goes the balloon, flying higher and higher and higher.
further from our grasps, rising above our heads;
losing that happiness we had.
but, like a child, we never stay sad for long - something else will distract us, all too soon.

that was POP'09.
in that five hours, our instructors left us,
but there wasn't time to feel sad because now there's instructorhood to keep us busy.
and it's suddenly all too big a responsibility.
yes, i love the standard ones, but i don't know. it's an awful load for me.
but i'll try to keep the balloon in my hands this time round.


with little, childish innocence,
(shall i view the world:)
no more tinted glasses nor kaleidoscopes.
things shall be as they seem.
no more extra imagination,
nor a little too much consideration.
no, no more.


signing off with just a little faith, trust and pixie dust.
(God be with me.)
