hello! after a month. preoccupied with prelims, well more or less. (they were bad too)
(i shall paragraph more often for easy reading).
september holidays were spent in school and exciting.=) especially september 6th (happy birthday). so i was in school from mon to fri, played badminton every day (har! secret training), except the first, think it was basketball. and guess who else was (were..) in school every day. i sat with baorong and yingheng every day (oops=) she said she doesn't mind. but. oops=S). and.....=) i said hi! i mean we said hi, because of yingheng=) well done, gut gemacht! but um.. so? nichts.
(oh yeah h i haven't told you so quick come online i'll tell you)
it's weird, when you really question it, there's no meaning to it, and it really doesn't matter. things i thought mattered actually don't. so there's a lesson on relative importance...as i was talking to jin about this morning/evening.
so over the holidays that wasn't the only time i talked, but really uncomfortable, and it's not just the "i just got to know you" kind. oh well, yeah you're right, whoever you are.
the last of the main A papers ended yesterday with bio mcq, and a badminton fiesta thereafter at clementi sports hall with classmates (the usual supporters, hon wei li eric xiaohui shifeng! (i read her blog, i'm really glad she enjoyed it. she was the one who contacted me)and many guys.) that was fun, felt a little dreamy, the place. couldn't move again, even though i consistently told myself to MOVE. i think it had sth to do with the shuttlecocks too, they were light/heavy, xiaohui and i can't decide, because when we hit them there was no power, but they flew out of the court really easily.
had a really good match right at the end, with wei li as my partner against andy and hongking. (so frustrating, my smashes weren't killer enough, they always bounced back) so there were andy falling all over the place trying to save all kinds of shots while wei li flew around in front of me doing dropshots. but there were 2 consecutive smashes by andy/hongking that i managed to save, that felt good, it felt like war though=S.
i like sports alot because i really put in all i've got, all i'm worth, into it. it doesn't matter anymore whether i'm supposed to act like a girl (i don't anyway), so here's to sports. Prost!
after i came back to school (that was rather sad, there weren't many j2s around) i spotted hannah and grace sitting in the canteen, they were about to go off. then i saw john walking towards the gym with a few tennis rackets, he was really nice, he said hi and signalled at a distance asking if i wanted to join. of course i jumped at the chance. grace and i dashed off after them. her mom was coming, so we only played err...about 5 balls (basically we picked up the ball 5 times. it was all in a hurry) and her mom was already calling her. another time! we shall play tennis.
thankfully Three pple were left, john, two hockey boys ivan and ywee ern. so i played with ywee ern against the other two, it wasn't great but quite enjoyable. i was really lousy, but got warmed up after a while. john and ywee ern went off to play squash so i was playing with ivan. he's so terribly nice, just brimming and overflowing, with niceness. i really don't get it.
so we went to the squash courts as well. besides ywee ern and john, siva was there too, he's so hilarious. i've decided i'll hold nothing against him from now on=P and he's my kind of squash player, whack!
so i played a bit as well, against ywee ern and then john, and then chethan who came in later. i really...can't play. hmm. i make them run once in a while, but once they make me run, i'm quite dead. must have more confidence=P and put in more effort.
two seniors came back, kailun (ah now i know who he is, after not knowing while reading hon's blog) and his girlfriend (i suppose) who's also an ex-hockey girl.
new discovery, squash's quite fun too, maybe i'll not only play tennis with grace after As but also squash (uh oh, hope she'll bear with me=).
felt a little out, wanted to leave early but the two seniors were almost sitting on my stuff.
but like i said, it made me feel good to "gaarrrr!" and run about and whacking tennis/squash balls. there was a rally with ivan during tennis that made my lungs feel dry. ow. he hit to my left. so i ran after it, and i KNEW he was gonna hit to the right, even though i also knew that he wasn't gonna do it intentionally. after madly making a run for the ball that indeed flew to the right and getting it back, i foresaw once again, that it was gonna go all the way to my left. and it did. harharhar. it was funny to see how embarrassed and apologetic he looked.
so rather rewarding a day, not only from the sports but also from getting to know more people=) (and losing weight)
after that i went to the canteen, and a junior from 1so3f actually came over and said hi. though i wasn't in a very sociable mood, that still made me feel better. unfortunately they lost their pw file... which brought to mind the time tianjiao lost our group's on the bus, but managed to find it at the terminal. whew=S now i know how lucky we were.
then i went up to the library for a while. chenglim was pingponging with his cronies on the 2nd floor. they're so creative and resourceful to use the extra table tennis tables outside the hall to play. no wonder i keep hearing the sound of ping pong ball bouncing around from that corner.
oh and i lost my ic, from wednesday's paper i figured. i went to look for the estate manager, and whew, he had it. he dug around his drawers and took it out, "what's your name?". "sun yi". it was mine, i recognised the photo. he then threw his arms up in fake jubilation and looked thankful. harharhar so sarcastic.=)
today...so paiseh but...i was...um. watching....um. meteor garden (wish i could shrink the size of that) it's actually the second time i've watched it. the last time i found really touching, but it was quite crap this time around. it's getting too...ridiculous and unreal. the reason why shows are addictive and labelled as "good", i think, is because the reality of them, not just the plot, but more importantly the personality of the characters. shancai is getting too....obstinate and retorting, for my liking and for what i believe seems real (pls don't bring up the matrix). i mean for guys it's more understandable...for e.g. it doesn't seem as weird for dao ming si to be obstinate and jealous yet generous (he's giving her 1million..) because you can understand where he's coming from. but she...everytime she has to say sth so they end up in fights, that's quite..um. unbelievable. i mean at first it was like, wow such a tough little girl (though small will not be looked on as small)...but after a while....just another girl throwing tantrums. and it made me think, if she actually didn't constantly respond in the way she habitually does to dao ming si, like "you stupid pig/idiot" but instead really sweetly and supportive he might not have liked her. ok understandable, you want a little excitement because when everything's too smooth it's boring, but it's making me rather tired of seeing her doing the same thing, and making her character very predictable. ok maybe some pple like their characters to be predictable because it means you've got a good feeling of what she's like, so she'd seem rather close to your heart...but...it's different..it's...hmm. i know, it's because her character buildup wasn't so strong, it doesn't convince, at least me, that she's such an .. unversatile and uncompromising person. i don't think it's the acting...maybe it's the script. really quite....superfluous. everything's about shouting obscenities, crying, looking sad, pouting, bashing people up. the first time i found it actually nice, was because of some depth in the complications. the plot creates a scenario where .. you're so helpless, you wanna do sth but really the circumstances do not permit.
(ah one big chunk. if only i were a good writer, it would've been much more enjoyable)
but it made me think about this strange thing you call, love. nvm think about that later. go back to phys s now.
