say hello to my latest pet creation,
the 5S7 Monster! :D

the official 5S7 shirt prototype.

i got my new hp!!!
*bounces around happily*
it's not the 3220 tho.
it's a T630, and it's not new either.
but it sure feels good
looking at the color screen
and its slinky blackness :)

using my 8310 for the last 3 years
has rendered me IT-obsolete.
i had no idea what bluetooth
was until my cousin taught me
how to send songs and pictures
to and fro via bluetooth.

it's sooo cool!
you get to create your "phone name"
and search for other bluetooth users
within a 100m radius of you.
you get to choose who you want to add
and create a "passkey",
and you can even rename them!

i've been adding users
and sending pics and sounds
and receiving pics and sounds
all over the place.
it's really fun :)

heee!
there's a certain joy in having new things.
it gives each day a little more excitement :)
nowadays, when i i wake up
the first thing i do is reach for my phone.
ah, the blooming love for sth new.
*beams happily at you*

life has taken on a different taste this yr.
mostly bcos there's no kakak i think.
mum can't take it nemore.
she's been mopping and sweeping
and house-cleaning whenever she has time
after she comes back from work,
and it's wearing her out.

we're all to fault for this, really.
none of us help out much :(

so we're gettin a kakak again
sometime after CNY.

this yr's more... busy.
now that i have clamped my jaws
on a steely determination to actually finish all my hw,
i nvr seem to have enuff time to do it :(

and whence once upon a time
i could lie back and read into the lonely hours of the night,
i cannot take it now.
i wake up in the morning
with heaviness tugging at my eyelids and eyebags
and i am hounded by fear of falling asleep in class.

everything the teachers say
seem more important,
more significant nowadays.
it's like everything they say may in some way
contribute to better chances of achieving an A.

i've sort of started a self-campaign too:
i plan to make the teachers like me this yr.
whenever a teacher looks my way
i try to smile and try to look like i understand.
i try to ask more questions, talk less in class,
scribble down what look like notes,
and stare attentively at the blackboard.

you see?
i've been trying.

i don't want to look at my testimonials
and see the words "lazy", "disrespectful", "moody",
"noisy" or "irresponsible".
i want to see "changed a lot", "jovial girl",
"works hard", "tries her best"...

"a very good girl".

this yr is different from others.
i haven't made the mistake of writing 2004
more than twice
in these last 2 weeks.
and i haven't written 4S7 instead of 5S7
once at all.

it's like i've embraced this yr.

it makes me wonder.

the question of what i want to do
after SPM is still unanswered.
or perhaps that's how i want to see it for now.
i don't think i have much choice apart from form 6,
but it hasn't stop me from believing
i have other options so far.

... ... ...

*reads back*

what got into me??
s'like i needed a vent of a window
to stick my head out of.

this 1 was an experiment.
think if i build on this style properly
i'll really be Somewhere by the end of this yr :)

sth i drew durin relief period today.

still incomplete, but it looks good so far.
credits to my bodumus ushi
for bringing her alive :)

my latest, latest :)
and my best too, if i do say so myself.
comments, everybody?
