this NEW year...

Oh my GOD. It's new year's eve... which means that, school starts on FRIDAY. I absolutely, totally, irrevocably hate and loathe it. Schools spells only one dreadful thing.... the theft of our normal personal life. The invasion of our precious time. The oncoming evil of stress and depression...

ok... maybe i dramatised a bit with my play of words... but certainly, school isn't anything good to look forward to. 'O' Levels surely doesn't help in making things better.... only worse.

This might sound crazy, but I miss my childhood. Because Singaporeans only get to enjoy less than 5 years of it. The rest of the "robbed" years were dreadfully spent in preparation for examinations, tests, extra-ciricculum activities which have noticably and unmistakenly taken control of our entire life. That's a Singaporean Kid for you.

I never really realised that kids were entitled to so much fun, freedom, and space for creativity until my first visit to a Canadian School. I would never forget or stop yearning for that sort of life, but I suppose in local schools, its clear to impossible.

twilight movie

Just went to watch the movie twilight yesterday. Wow... they really chose similar actors to the book. For the first time, the actors actually looked like the people I imagined when I read the book. =)

However, the movie was a slight disappointment, as it wasn't as good as the book, nor as spectacular as I hoped, but it was still good in its own sense. But I still urge people to watch it... hahax.

I'm almost finished with new moon... and i bought Breaking Dawn, but Eclipse is out of STOCK!!! =( damned... I didn't want to start on Breaking Dawn, without reading Eclipse first, to keep the order... but it seems like I might not be able to control myself... hahax. Anyway, anyone knows and is very completely absolutely sure that somewhere sells Eclipse.... PLEASE... tell me.

I can't help getting the song "Love Story" by Taylor Swift outta my mind... I believe it really fits the Twilight Story... Bella and Edward, instead of Romeo and Juliet... hahax.

By the way, I'm learning how to play "Bella's Lullaby" on the piano... I hope I can at least play it at slow speed, before school (or rather chaos, and stress, and depression...) starts. I can't wait for my BFF Su Xue to come back with her guitar...

"its a love story, baby just say yes.."

xoxo,

Twilight and Taylor Swift....

Twilight and Taylor swift...

Current mood: calm

Heya... You'd probably be wondering what Twilight has gotta do with Taylor Swift. I only have one answer for you... I LOVE them both =)
still obsessed with taylor's music, and as usual, i'm listening to her tunes while I type this blog... and I'm so gladd, that her album Fearless is number ONE again. (double smiles =))
I can't wait to watch Twilight... yeah, those of ya in USA might think I'm slow, but it only opens in Singapore on the 18th of December. So I'm like watching it on Monday, at my favourite cinema, Orchard Cathay Yayy...
Did I mention that I read the Twilight book 3 times already?? hahax, well now you know. =)

xoxo,
carmen
