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

the silver thorn of bloody rose.
For some reasons, sometimes you tend to emphasize too much on someone's strengths, such that their weaknesses and flaws somehow fade away and you're left with an image of perfection. It is more common and typical for the opposite to happen, but it's equally undesirable either way. No matter how many times you're taught to think positive, how many times you're told to look at people's strengths instead of their weaknesses, overdoing anything is not good. That includes overrating.Nothing to do with all the rubbish that has been happening in school lately, it's just that this random thought of mine decided to pop into my head today out of all days and now I'm left brooding over it.
And by the way, don't have to worry anymore because they built stairs there now, so much more convenient and safe isn't it? Time to stop the wild imaginations and echoed words, though it's quite impossible when they've more or less integrated into your life and you just know that be it ten or twenty years later they'll still be chucked somewhere in the back of your mind.
Hmm maybe that's why it feels as though they're taking something away from me?
Yeah, don't have to worry, she'll be fine.

I have to admit that classroom politics - especially one with all females - can be insanely crazy, and scary yet utterly amusing. It was "drama after drama" yesterday, and knowing me of course I had to take sides. Ain't going to elaborate on anything because I've repeated, said and heard enough throughout today and yesterday after school, gotten all the displeasure out with people who share the same view as me.
But either way, I'm praying very hard that things will at least get slightly better soon. Don't want our last class project as 102'08/202'09 to be a bitter, awkward and divided one, in fact it's already bad enough with it being on an extremely tight schedule and even clashing with EOYs. I'm wondering if people will actually treasure it or do their best, or dismiss it to be a whole load of rubbish. It's really our last chance at making things right so it's either we end things on a happy note or just leave it all hanging there like an unfinished story that no one bothers to complete. Please just let it be memorable.
Anyway, I'm quite looking forward to working with Iffera. She was the first person who came to my mind when we discussed SM, because she's enthusiastic, resourceful, has got lots of ideas, is familiar with script already, is extremely tolerable (haha essential), doesn't get angry easily, and she doesn't bitch so I don't feel all that self-conscious around her. Add the fact that I worked most closely with her on the drama assessment, she's a super nice person, and I think she actually enjoys doing this.
And despite everything, there really are stuff that I will miss about 202 next year, small yet significant things.. Like Charissa's super cute hyperventilating (this one really deserves to be first on this list, I mean how many Charissas can you find in your lifetime?!), "bullying" Weelin, Xinyi and her unique voice and her obsession with Hermoine, going Adam Lambert & Allison-crazy with Bernie, staring at Shenlin staring into space when I'm bored during lessons, occasional chats with Cheryl that I somehow always find myself happy afterwards, etc.
On a side note again, I feel super grateful for my clique and I love them so freaking much. There was a period of time when we were quite heck-care and unbonded but I really think we're closer now, hmm do you agree? Yes and I also think that we've grown alot since last year, you probably get what I mean. (:
AND OH MY GOSH I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE THEMED OUTINGS. ♥
Okay nevermind that was totally random HAHA.
Of course there's also my future-MSTP deskie who can also be super cute when she's anxious, is really good in Math though she can be damn careless sometimes, who is actually very understanding and I thank her for sparing me the fangirling on Korean bands - seriously, she knows that I don't like them so she doesn't talk to me about them at all. Of course I don't curse them in her face too. Idk there's like so many positive and negative stuff to say about H after nine months of sitting with her and knowing her relatively well already, such that I don't know how to continue.
Though there's this point that makes her one of my favourite deskies in my life and it's how when we share really in depth stuff with each other occasionally, we agree with each other most of the time. I think we were talking alot on Tuesday even though my sore throat felt immensely disturbing, but it's too bad cause I was too engaged in the conversation. By the way, there's nothing wrong with mugging. I'm going to mug for EOYs, does anyone want to kill me for that? o.o
No idea why everything got rather positive all of a sudden, like all the good points about people. But that's good hahaha better than a negative bitchy post! Positive posts don't come often for me.
Hmm okay and I think my time management skills are going to be put to the test more that anybody else's, so pardon if my blog goes on hiatus for awhile. There has been alot that I want to blog lately, just that I cannot find the time to - little yet significant things that happened, humorous stuff that make my day, tag replies which I think I'm going to either reply straight at the tagboard, or just read and not do the replies.
There's EOYs, 202's drama piece, crewing for Drama Fest, so I don't think I will be very free at all right after EOYs. And yes, I still want to get our top crewing standard back, or at least the best we can, cause fact's that it will probably never be as good as how it used to be. Don't know why but I feel as though I'm more detached from CCA than ever, even with the suspension I don't seem to miss Theatre at all. It's so odd because it's the first time I'm feeling this way, I feel lost because the passion is fading, scared even because that's the worst thing that can happen and that's what I've been fearing all the while since the start of this year.
Then Scarlet blues come hit on strong, I miss everything about that production, and in fact for some weird reason I have been missing it for the past few days. It's like post-production blues all over again at the most unlikely time of the year and I can find no explanation for that.
"The ladies will feel as though they are glowing - because they think that they are glowing!"
HAHA browsing through the Scarlet file makes me happier already.

And of course my parents for three freaking awesome stuff I don't even know how to break this to you hahaha but you already know. -_-
1) A MINI LAPTOP.
2) MLTR'S CONCERT TICKETS.
3) GENEE AWARD CONCERT TICKETS.
Now be jealous again. It's like crazily amazing I can't even choose the best out of three.
4) FOR ALL THE LOVE.
I love my parents (but I still hate my dad's smoking habits).
I'm sincerely apologetic if I've left anyone out cause I really don't mean to. And now read these:
From Wan Li's letter, "Do you remember that you say I only talk to you about homework? =( This was in Sec 1. I was sad and scared of talking to you sometimes. This was in the past, but now I will NOT be afraid of you!!"
And from Shu Min's letter: "Like wonderful Marigolds (where you described me as the "super irritating person you always tell to SHUT UP!) XD But we've come a long way since then and we'll have an even longer way to go!"
Okay anyway I laughed while reading them, because yes it shows how mean I am/was, and yes too it shows how despite the above incidents these people are now very important to me. Scary how they'll probably remember what I said for a very long time from now, hmm?
I'm tired, goodnight!
