o__O I think it's dreams-galore week. Had the weirdest dream last night. Dreamt that me, Jas, Ju hiang and Shiyun were going to board at this unknown mrt station. We were taking the escalator when we turned and saw through the glass window on the other side. Robbie Williams had put this gigantic breakdance mat in the middle of Orchard Road and was performing to homeless people. Dunno what song he sang.....it was so blurry.
Then I think Jasmine and Shiyun were like, 'oh I know this song!' and hahaha...Shiyun actually knew the song name! Worst thing was, the 2 of them went so crazy over Robbie. I was like, HUH?! cannot be....Then suddenly shiyun turned and asked ju hiang 'something wrong? you're very quiet today...' and ju hiang shook her head, saying 'no...nothing.'
SO...Unexplainable.
Later, shiyun kept saying 'you know right, there's guzheng tomorrow from 7.30 to 2.30'. I was stunned. Jasmine was kinda disappointed and said 'oh...yeah'. I was, 'I thought sec 4s no need to go anymore??!!'. Shiyun said 'nooo....this is our last practise.'
Next thing we were walking in this BRIGHT hawker stall. It was so BIG and no shelter, just sunlight everywhere. The stupidest thing was that on every plate on every table, there sat my neighbour's DOG, Lady. My neighbour's DOG. A DOG. S'poreans don't EAT dogs RAW. Then I went up to one of those dogs and hugged it. It was then when I woke up and found out I was hugging my soft toy, Fluffy, and he was in exactly the same position as my neighbour's dog was in the dream. I went crazy and laughed myself to sleep again.
Then suddenly everything jumped into another dream. I was on vacation, alone I think. I was at this big resort, full of sand and sea. Was swimming in the pool k, then I just swam and swam forever, till I discovered an opening to the hotel's port, where they keep the ships and stuff (for what reason, I dunno)
I remember being ON the port, then I saw the navy blue waters of the sea and just jumped into it without a second thought. There was a warning, floating on the sea, saying that sharks infested the waters ahead. I was like, YAY sharks! and went on swimming.
I swam and swam and I enjoyed every bit of it, until I reached this rope, floating on the water. Beyond, there was the most freakiest thing I every saw in a dream. I was never so freaked out before. Beyond the rope, there were sharks. Oh man, not ten sharks, not even twenty. They were twice the size of an average human, and they really meant it when they said sharks infested the water. Every meter, there were sharks. Just looming about and swimming around. Came in every size. And they looked awfully like the sharks in Finding Nemo....k, dunno why.
In the dream, I freaked, and swam towards the beach (okay where did THAT come from?) and then when I wanted out, this guy in black (maybe the manager or whatever) said that I had to go through this short corridor. Thank goodness it was short. You know why? The sharks were directly above your head in the water. Like, underwater world, WITHOUT the glass. The guy said 'the air inside the corridor keeps the water afloat, so be sure to open and close the door VERY quickly'.
Like, oh shit. So I did that, and the water level above me dropped dratically when I opened and closed the doors. SO scaaarry.... Came out in bright sunlight. SO thankful. Then I was thinking, 'next time, I will bypass the sharks'.
???? I think the time when I'm the craziest is in my dreams. I have NO idea what I wanted to achieve in that dream. Getting killed, maybe. I was out of my mind. *sigh*....dunno what it all means. Strange thing was, I had those dreams the night after I read Jasmine's blog, which was yesterday. I think after I read that part on her guzheng nightmare, it just stuck itself behind my head.
*shudder* I guess having cca is my worst nightmare ever.

Congrats to y'all who got gold!! esp our very own guzheng tuan!!! Okay, that's that.
Sigh...thinking of homework makes me pee in my pants. Anyways, woke up at about 1pm today, just 30min early for MTV movie awards 2004. BUT, Euro Italy vs Sweden was showing at the same time. -__-|l| Had to switch channels every now and then. It's so sick. It was a draw. I wanted Italy to trash the Swedens. *ahem*
The MTV movie awards was great, better than all the previous others. Really funny. But Troy and Van Helsing didn't appear there, not for now at least. Its theme for this year was like, Halloween. SO bloody freaky. But since I like freaky stuff I didn't mind. All the animated blood and whatever was just...very...disturbing.
^__^ Johnny Depp won Best Male!!!! And did I hear wrongly, or is there gonna be a Pirates 2?? I'll be a sick freak if I didn't watch that. And the sequel to Resident Evil: Apocalypse is coming in Sept. How fun. And like, whoa, Kill Bill was a big fav. Snagged Best Fight, Best Female, best villian...but in the end, it was none other than Lord of the Rings that got best movie.
Erm...the performances....sucked, except maybe for D12. But it was all worth it, seeing Johnny Depp sunbathing somewhere out in the tropics on tv. Only thing I wasn't satisfied in was that Best Dance went to some guy when all the other nominees were SO much cooler. It's probably a popularity thing. So sick.
Hmm...random quote of the day: Scientists say 1 out of every 4 people is crazy, check 3 friends .... if they're okay, you're it.
I hope laoshi loses ALL his money in the casino!!!!!

Okayz...yesterday, I had the most boring dinner ever. The food wasn't boring, it was the people. I'm not a relative person. I hate talking to them. Don't have a sibling, so things are more or less quiet around here, and when suddenly there's this whole bunch of people sitting around you, it feels weird.
I had like, 3 cousins there. One from Brunei with her mom and dad (I think...yeah) and the other 2 are bro + sis. One of whom I've never seen in YEARS, and the other, I just can't help but hate. I think I didn't like him the moment I knew him. It was like....I was born to hate him. I dunno why. He's the dude who hangs around with the cousin from Canada (yeah, PURE chocolate guy), and I've grown to DESPISE them from sixteen years. We have like, nothing in common. Or nothing in common I chose to find out.
Yupz....I remember biting them (yes, literally) a looooong time ago, when I was a few years old. HAH! One of them was so scared out of his wits.....the other just....cried. Yeah, we were all little critters. Me, an especially irritating, lethal critter. DON'T mess with me.
The girl cousin last night was eh...sweet. No other word to use, but not as pretty as my mum described her. I was expecting someone real cool, but she's just SWEET. Not annoyingly sweet, just sometimes lame cos there's nothing else to say at the dining table. Think Carrie Chong. With shorter hair.
Right, HER mum (my aunt) was making weird, WEIRD noises in her throat all night. I thought it was coming from the next room, and only after a long while did I notice it was from her. Oh my goodness, what a sound! It was like a mix between the cry of a foal coming out from mummy's ass and the bleat of a sheep being shaved.
My cousin from Brunei looked like she's just given birth. Dunno if she's tired or what, or maybe it's just the wrinkles. I dunno how old she is, but she looks forty. Man, it SUCKS (sometimes) to be the youngest. While I'm at school figuring why the hell Amish people are so successful, they're probably having kids my age.
To sum it all up, the moment I sat down at that table I wished I never was there. I'd rather DO HOMEWORK and PRACTISE GUZHENG. Now, that's the extent of my desperation.
Man, it's been too long since I've found time to blog. Watched so many movies this 2 weeks. First (I think) it was Harry Potter PoA, then Shrek2, then Day after Tomorrow. It seems like only a few days before when I watched Troy and Van Helsing (on the same day). Great...coming up will be Spiderman2 and Chronicles of Riddick and Secret Window and Ladykillers and The Whole Ten Yards and King Authur and...etc, until next year's HP4, which better be good.
Rating for Shrek: 9.5/10
Rating for D.A.T.: 8/10
And I think I've returned to reading Harry Potter fiction. Ok, I've never really read HP fiction, just did it to see alternate possibilities of more or less everything. Dammit, I hope Sirius will shave himself clean and everything by the fourth book. His tatoos rock. Wonder how the fifth one will turn out to be.....kinda pity Lupin...I mean, by the 5th book, he's so alone. James died long ago, Peter's a betraying ass, and Sirius dies. *gasp*...the last Marauder. Aw hell....
*YAWN* Greaaatt....CCA will SUCK later on. Life can be so great without THAT particular ass. I would even LOVE cca if THAT person wasn't there. Too bad Fate has befallen on us that crazy bulldog. Sigh.
Oh, and yeah, I'm so sick of reviewing movies already. I've reviewed everything from A-Z and oh dear I haven't watched Mean Girls yet. Not planning to, unless someone really wants to watch it. Bet it's the normal high school bitchy type of people. Didn't really fancy the ads. I dunno....must see it to judge.
Okkies! Mischief Managed! Now let me go and sulk.
Had a magical blast today! Hmm....read the previous entry and note the evident difference.
Watched HP3, prisoner of azkaban at PS. I find it better than the previous two, maybe cos it's my favourite book out of the current five. It honestly has more plot and darkness than anything else. It's SO my favourite. If I didn't catch it as soon as humanely possible, I'll be wallowing with self-pity in bed all night.
Sometimes it's disappointing cos it looks as though the director never really paid so much attention to small details which make big differences. For instance, out of the blue, Lupin knows how to use the Marauders' Map, and Harry asks no questions. Lupin never even said he helped create it, never said he was Mooney and who was Padfoot, Prongs and Wormtail......
The Marauders are my fav characters in all 5 books (excluding that furry sewage rat), and the fact that they weren't paid much attenion to is kinda dissapointing. Other stuff that was dissapointing: (sigh...I solomely swear I am up to no good)
(1)....I've got too many issues about the horrible choice of Remus Lupin and Sirius Black, so I'll summarize. I want Jude Law to be Sirius and Johnny Depp as Lupin. There, I've said it. Anyone else better than David Thewlis and whatever the other guy's name is....
(2)Quidditch, the best part about every book, lasts for five minutes.
(3)Minor point, but werewolf Lupin looks like an underfed canine with excessive saliva glands. Its human counterpart is so much fatter. The part when Lupin and Sirius fought as animals was nice though.
The good stuff outweighs everything else: Lupin's DATDA class was awwweeesooomme. But from the book I expected a humble, quiet, SKINNY guy. David Thewlis was....such a teacher!!! Yeah, supposed to be, but I didn't really expect that kind of confidence from someone who has been an outcaste all his life, and never had any real friends until Sirius returned. Yay!! Sirius & Remus still my fav foreva....one is gentle, quiet, modest, the other is wild, angry, fun, and a madman from Azkaban. Mix them together and you get a perfect character ^__^
Emma Thompson cracks me up....perfect for the role! Emma Watson gets (and looks) better and better in every movie.
And who can forget our lovely resident Dementors?? They FLY!! They freeze up everything in their paths, they SUCK ur SOULS!!! How awesome.
But I guess they needed more focus on the Shrieking Shack, the climax of the story. Everything happens too fast without explaination for those who've never read the book. Hah, Snape was so cool-evil. Loved it when they all gathered at the Shrieking Shack, Lupin, Sirius, Snape and Peter. The craziest class reunion!!!
Overall rating: 8.9/10
Man, wish to have a teacher like Lupin! Then I can turn Ferng (gasp! my greatest fear!) into a Hippogriff! Hahaha....we should create our own Marauder's Map too. Cool...draw the map of the SCHOOL! Then we can see when the teachers are coming into the class and stash our cards somewhere safe. Hahaha....can even witness them going to the toilet!
Mischief Managed!
I feel like killing somebody. In particular a bespectacled man (who looks like he should have been dead a long time ago) and....is the oh-so-holy instructor of *********** CCA.
But since I would have been charged with murder in the first degree, with multiple eye witnessnes, I restrained myself from tearing his eyes out this afternoon. I wanted to stab him, tear his intestines out but still make sure his heart's still beating. That is such the best torture. I can think of more, but since dinner's around the corner I'll cut it, so that I won't be spoiling anyone's appetites.
******* is such the BEST CCA in da wooorlld^
^note sarcasm
I lurve it to DEATH!^^

Hah, that a** doesn't trust us enough to memorize some sickening scores by next week, so he pushed it to this friggin' Sat!!!! This is injustice. It's EXPLOITATION!!!! I've SO had enough. CCA IS important, yeah whatever, but SO ARE subjects, and lessons, and exams. CCA is NOT the world. WAKE UP AND SMELL THE MANDARIN DUCKS!!!! You don't know sh*t about a student's life. BEGONE!!!!!! Back to the rotten...APPLE that spawned you, devil!!!
Maybe we're not the BEST of students, or the best batch, but what about HIM??!! That mix between a limp bulldog and Will Hung?? BAAHHHH!!!! Grrrr....
...You don't wanna know what I'm gonna do to this VOODOO DOLL.... go eat your dinner, and promise you won't puke.
*cuts out its -censored- and -censored- with the disecting -censored- and -censored- up its -censored-* ^__^= angelic....^^^
