Smoke gets in your eyes.
Profile
She is unpredictable, frequent moodswings. Sometimes she’s nice, and sometimes she’s not.
Her name is Yan Ying. 90% of the world can’t pronounce it properly, simple as it seems. But no one really cares so they just call her YY. She is not fond of people with the same name as her. She turns 14 on 6th September and she loves her birthday cause it is a sex symbol. She was from Yew Tee Primary and is still proud of her school. She will never forget the class of 6D’07, or the batch of P6’07. She is currently an idiot in Nanyang Girls High and it is a love-hate relationship. She belongs to 202’09 which she, to be honest, doesn’t feel much for. She is a Theatre Club girl and is more than proud to be one. She especially loves Emo Batch♥, and looks forward to devoting her next 3 years to TCN with much optimism. She does ballet with more than just passion but she can’t do a center split. She is trying her best and is currently aiming for a far-fetched distinction for Grade6. She loves hiphop just as much though she’s pretty new at it. Her favourite sport is swimming and she occasionally plays basketball as a form of stress-relief. She likes to be tan and loves her swimming tan line. The piano, is yet another love-hate relationship. Like most teenagers, her hobbies include MSNing, blogging, and youtubing and facebooking. She loves shopping and doing random stuff like gaying people, jumping over railings, walking in the rain, and having completely irregular sleeping hours. Unlike most teenagers, she thinks that rap music is trash. She also thinks that she is getting old cause she hates the songs the average listens to these days. She can’t explain her love for oldies, country music, ballads, and sentimentals. Nostalgic songs are the best. Her favourite bands are Michael Learns to Rock, The Beatles and Westlife. She loves too many singers to name them all. “Forevers” are bullshit as of now. The night speaks to her the way no one else can. Her favourite thing to do is to curl up with a book on a rainy afternoon in her room, where she feels safest in. Her favourite flower is a black rose, but on the contrary, she likes rainbows and hugs too. She is always torn between two. But she is determined when she sets her mind on something, so she wants the world to shut up and believe in her. Just watch.Tag

worn out places, worn out faces.
But I don't get why, either.It's so stupid.
Week's been good, ended off quite well except for a couple of things. Things are slowing down, most of it is down to finalizing, and in three weeks time Term 2 will be over. Then it's back to Theatre and FOA rehearsals.
Read alot of blogs about how horrible life is with the workload/sucky people all around it's kind of like a trend now. With regards to the former, ironically for me it's quite the opposite. When I'm busy, I know that I've got alot of things to do, so I don't procrastinate too much and in the end get things done on time = feels good. When I'm free I do alot of procrastination, and in the end I have to rush alot of things out = feels damn busy and shitty. Wonder how Term 3 is going to be like.
Allison got voted out of AI. My favourite contestant, man I felt like crying when she did. She's so sweet and has got awesome vocals, and she's only seventeen. Hope she goes far! I really thought Kris deserved to be out based on the previous night's performance, though he's generally good and I like him, but that night really wasn't his night. I think he kind of expected himself to be out as well.. Oh and Danny's scream was horrible, totally spoilt my image of him. But Lambert, awesome in the sense that he can make a complete hater like him in the end. Gary Jule's version of "Mad World" has been going on on my playlist for the 52nd time already today. Didn't know that Lambert could sing ballads so well too, first impression was rock, rock, and only rock. Good job.
Secondly, Mas Selamat's capture! Wonder if you guys saw the headlines on Friday, never seen it so freaking big before especially the word "CAPTURED". They said it was thirteen months since his escape, but it felt so recent like at most half a year. Didn't read the rest of it but still something worth to talk about nonetheless. Saw on some forum that they didn't report it on 1st April cause it would be like an April Fools joke. And here's an interesting version of the story: http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/showthread.php?t=2362062. Man if he ever escapes again imagine the bigger uproar that would cause, though I highly doubt it would be possible.
Theory test. Took mine today at like what, 9.30am in the morning so naturally I was taking every chance I could to sleep - in the car, while waiting in the canteen (it's at RGS), on the car ride back. Manageable, just wanted to get it over and done with and then go swimming. Oh and there's a really ridiculous thing I wrote though, "The bitch goes down by a perfect fourth." When I reread it I did change the word to "pitch" don't worry.
Thing was, I left my freaking examination slip and theory book and pretest papers in M4 yesterday, so I couldn't revise that night and what made it worse was that you need the examination slip to take the test. When I found out at home and it was like 7.30pm, I freaked out so badly I almost peed in my pants. Skirt. Shorts. Yeah and thanks to my mum who drove me all the way to Nanyang to ask the security guard if they could open M4 (though I already knew that's completely impossible). But in the end my piano teacher called the office to ask for excuse all that and HOORAY it was possible.
Blocks. Probably not for the rest of the class but for me all the results are out already, since I've got a valid reason for LA. History was definitely the most disappointing one but I'll do better next time. Well, brooded enough already, oh man when did I start caring huh. I'm pretty contented with the rest, even Chinese which was the same grade as History but it's important to know your standards right.
And Math, was like doing the revision booklet till 1am at night. I made a mistake as careless as Hilary's (-4k = k+3 is -3k = 3 lol), which was leaving my answer as ab^2/b. Once again, cliche but true, last minute revisions rarely work because you are so flustered you can't absorb anything. Should have gotten more sleep instead. The next blocks are in August and it seems super long away. Not good cause it would mean more things to mug.. Sigh.
Pre-selection for lit mentorship. I'm still considering but I've got to give Mdm Oehlers a reply by next Tuesday. It really sucks that you're not good enough for anything, doesn't it. When I looked around at the other 5, I thought, no way you can't touch these people. They're so incredibly good that you don't even want to think about competing with them. Better drop out than make a fool out of yourself during the test.
CCA. Just like some people who only wants acting, I only want backstage - think I got drilled/brainwashed too much in sec one. I'm still not sure which part of backstage I'm doing though. The idea for performance venue sounds totally cool, can't wait to try that out. You can guess where, if you're correct I might tell you, if you're wrong sorry. Still rather apprehensive cause the thought of going through all the countless rehearsals again makes me feel (insert thousand and one emotions here).
And once again I feel really grateful for my batch. The previous sec fours used to say we're very clique-ish but for this I'll have to disagree with them. I think too, that we're getting better year by year in terms of commitment and all that. ♥EMO-batch!
Yup and in class I've been talking to H quite alot recently. I think that we're both direct and straightforward people so it's much easier to communicate, rather than with those who beat around the bush or don't tell you anything at all. Surprisingly there's alot in common that we share, and it's not just "on the surface" things, despite my (and her) hesitance to sit with each other at the start of the year. Man I'll really miss my deskmate next year.
There's alot more that I say than when I'm with _. It's not any particular person, so I think you've got the blank right already. Don't know what your reaction will be to this, but I know that you think it's true too, we don't share much with each other do we? Mostly it's just the high moments that we share, but yeah I'm grateful for that already. You guys are still really awesome people, but except for maybe one of you whom I've talked to about stuff the other day, I don't feel good sharing alot with the rest.
"Some people are born to speak, while the others, just to listen." Everyone forms impressions, and when the latter does it's just scary. Imagine telling them so many things, and then they form deeper and deeper impressions each day but keep quiet about it. It's not the same with H though, and what makes it better is that she's super smart and fast in doing work, so when I don't know anything I will ask her haha.
Okay and now I shall tell you two things I seriously can't stand as of recent.
Firstly, people who smoke. My dad and his smoking habit, more of. It's annoying as hell that when I wake up on lovely Saturday afternoons, go down for lunch, I'll smell the disgusting polluted air. Or when I'm taking afternoon naps during the weekend in the living room (yeah even after 14 hours of sleep) I'll get woken up by the horrible smell of smoke.
Inconsiderate sometimes too, like when we go out and have dinner we will always have to wait for him to smoke before we can go home. Even worse, I can smell the bloody cigarette from the third floor, opposite direction from the front yard somemore, I don't know if I've got the nose of a bloodhound or what. So I'm a passive smoker, ain't I? And do you know how much money we can save without having to buy all those cigarette packs? Like don't you find it revolting that you'll be eating (yes I compare it to that) hundreds of thousands of cigarettes in your lifetime?

Read the statistics.
I hate hate HATE smokers and I swear infinite times that I will never go out with a guy who smokes. He can fulfil every single one of expectations though obviously that's impossible to the max but if he smokes then get the hell away.
I still love you dad, but I just hate your habit.
Secondly the MSN virus thing. Been wanting to blog about it but I keep forgetting, until I read JY's blog and it's so true. Like how old are you already why the hell are you still so stupid to go and click those URLs?! I'm going to block every single one of them too (now this is an acceptable reason to block people tsk). Have more common sense, kthxbye.
On a brighter note, I'm going for Kranji's SYF showcase with Zhen Yu! Or does anyone want to go with me? It's $15 per ticket at the Republic Cultural Centre, 5th June. Haha quite interested in watching their drama piece.. And SJ and JF are performing for choir oh man I think I'm going to laugh.
And I still want to go for the boarding school programme! Probably after the June hols or something.
