Sweet home alabama

Okay, so I finally am able to go online. Dad bought me a new lappie.
HAPPY! The only disappointment is that it’s red though; not pink. Ah, well at least red is somewhat part of the pink family; and that’s all that matters. Besides, I should always be thankful with what I have.

A lot have been going on lately. Promos just ended, and I’m hoping I did fine. Throughout the promos period I’ve been eating like nobody’s business due to exam-stress. Gained back the 2kg I lost (yes, wtf). But I shall lose it again, because I’m no longer stressed up. Plus I’ve been lazy to eat. Too tired to chew and everything.

Okay, it’s exactly 12.39am right now, and I should be sleeping because there’s bowling tomorrow morning.

GOODNIGHT!

Viola

My computer broke down, hence the “hiatus” status. Will update more soon.

Went to Geylang with my JC Girls (Izzati, Farahly, Zalikha, Faranah, Syarifah, Syairah) yesterday, after GP & Malay Promos paper. They helped me with my search for a nice nyonya kebaya; and we found a really nice one! HAPPY! Hahaha. So yes, thank you girls! Especially for putting up with my fickle-mindedness in choosing which one I should get.

Anyways, I thought that GP on a whole was alright and unexpected, as usual, although my choice question for essay was risky. It was, however, the first and only question that caught my attention:

3. “The arts not only speaks to but also about us”. Discuss.

I’ve always longed for the chance to write something like that, not just on blogs but on paper, an essay, to be assessed. And yet at the same time, I knew the risk I was taking; this is definitely not an easy question. To define what Arts really is in the first place is not easy, what more the latter. But I got really stubborn and for some reason, and I just completely refuse to do any of the other 11 questions. So yes, although I was happy that I managed to write out an essay based on this, I cant help to wonder about what-ifs. What if my transition was not strong enough? My stand for this essay was clear, I felt, but I second-guessed myself throughout writing the transition part.

Ah, I pray that it will be okay. If I screwed, I hope I didnt screw enough to lose my chances of getting at least a C for GP. Paper 2 was alright; and I’m depending on this to save my grade. Malay paper was alright, for both. I’m hoping for better grades this time.

Today is going to be a busy day for me; last minute cleaning up for Hari Raya and all. For some reason, I am a wee bit excited for Raya; no idea why.

last but not least, Selamat Hari Raya to all! Maaf zahir dan batin.

September Rush

Time flies when you’re busy with revisions. I was doing my Econs revisions for tomorrow’s CA Essay test, and the next thing I know, one and a half hours passed by me just like that; it was already 9.30pm. Promos is in 26 days, and I need to fully maximise my time despite Hari Raya celebrations (i hope :/). Quite happy that I’m done consolidating half of Human Geography’s Population, shall finish the other half by tomorrow so that I can go on to Globalisation and yada yada yada.

Despite the depth I have to cover for Geography, I believe I’m still very much in love with it, because I can still feel my passion & patience (HAHA) whenever I do Geography’s DRQs or Essays, be it Human or Physical.

I’m quite sad that I can’t watch GG Season 3’s first episode because I seriously have no time. I’m practically stealing some time to actually blog this. Hah.

Shall go to sleep now. Goodnight honeystars.

Love Game

So I received an email from my H1 Maths tutor regarding how much marks I need to get for Promos after the marks accumulated from my Daily Work, Class Tests, CAs, & Block Test. And I am HAPPY. I only need 27 marks to pass now. HEH. And only 54 to get a B! 72, for an A. Ahh, I love Maths. My scores for Maths have been averaging between As and Bs. I’m going to make sure I get at least a B for Promos overall. Insyallah, 54 shouldn’t be hard. In fact, I’m aiming for an A now, actually. Hahaha. Pleased with myself for H1 Mathematics! Well, at least for now I don’t really have to worry about my H1 Maths already. I can invest more time on Geography, Econs, and Malay Literature.

I had pizza for dinner; Hawaiian and BBQ Chicken. On top of that, there were the honey chicken drumlets and garlic bread. The best thing is I just had Macdonalds for dinner on Friday. -.-

Dont tell me I wont get fat.

Okay perhaps I should just stop here and just go and study.

Okay, maybe after I watch gossip girl.

Sally can wait

My life is so bountiful, I don’t need a boyfriend.

I’m planning to move, because blogger is getting really quite annoying with the retarded blogging format lately. Truth is, I have been surveying alot of other blogwebs lately. Hehh. I just can’t figure out which one I prefer just yet. :O

SO ANYWAY,
my September holiday is coming to an end. 7 days passed by me just like that. Despite getting my assignments done, I regret to say this but, time was not really well spent throughout this holiday. ): On the days when I had no school (mind you, it’s only on Monday and Wednesday- $%^$), I spent my time lazing around at home and getting more sleep. HEH. I’m so sleep-deprived, I swear. I can sleep at 2 plus in the morning and still wake up at 9am. ANNOYING. I think my body’s too used to this whole “morning system”, that’s why.

I’m hogging up on Gossip Girl again, now that I’m getting over B.O.F (sadly, yes) and that GG’s season 3 is coming out next week (!!!). HAPPY! It’ll be out next Monday, same time, same channel- although I don’t actually have access to the channel. Haha. The life of the rich, famous, and scandalized… it’s so easy to dream away while watching. Especially with man whore Nate Archibald around. He is seriously the most perfect looking guy I’ve ever seen.

All the taggings at Facebook is getting on my nerves. Those photos are unnecessary, especially when you get tons and tons of notifications regarding comments on the photo. Plus the whole idea does not even make sense! -.- So please, stop tagging and save me the trouble of untagging myself in those facebook-application photos.

OH, and I just checked my weight earlier. I lost some weight. HAHAHA. I thought I gained weight, really. Because I’ve been eating at night like nobody’s business. Glad to know I’m not getting any fatter or whatever. HEEHH.

Right. Okay, I’m going to bed early (although technically, it’s not exactly early since it’s 12.28 AM right now) to continue my healthy lifestyle and living, as well as “studying hard” while maintaining good health. I’ve been including fruits in my sahur meals. Hahaha. For tomorrow morning, watermelon’s in my list.

I shall get my mom to buy me apples.

Okay, bye. Sleepy time.

Slip through the cracks

Books I wanna get, or at least, borrow from the library.

Time flies like whoosh. My September hols will come to an end with a blink of an eye. What’s worst is that I have to return to school on Thursday and Friday, from 9-4pm. So much for the 1 week holiday.

And as much as I want to know the ending of B.O.F, I do not want it to end! :O I do not like endings. Who does? ): Oh well. My next drama to eye on would be Coffee Prince, since Diana claimed that it’s a good watch and definitely something I would like.

And while dramas are always wonderful at the end, I have to constantly remind myself and give myself some reality check before I get too deluded into these stuff. Earth to Nisa! These things don’t usually happen in real life, but oh, how I wish they do.

Alright then, til later!

In the space between yes and no, there’s a lifetime. It’s the difference between the path you walk and the one you leave behind; it’s the gap between who you thought you could be and who you really are; its the legroom for the lies you’ll tell yourself in the future.
-Jodi Picoult (Change of Heart)-

I broke fast (that’s the right term, right? Haha) with BFF, Jannah, and Dinah earlier. We had dinner at Northpoint’s Long John’s Silver.  Yupyup. And we had a gooodd long chat too. Haha. Jannah really does have Serena Van Der Woodson’s laughter.

I miss Narisa Amira Binte Johari. ): She’s the best example of hate turned into love of friendship (in context of my life, I mean). To be honest, I think the true kind of hate is actually indifference. See, when you actually hate someone, you care too much to ignore them. And ironically, caring too much isn’t hate. I guess hating might mean one of two things- caring too much or ignoring completely. Logically, I never thought that one word can have two ironic and contradictory definitions. But emotionally, I guess we all know that.

So anyway, I was surfing the net, when I found a list of ingredients of a Happy Day . I thought it was quite interesting, so i decided to share it here. Spread the happiness! =D :

1. Smile. It may have to be forced at first but you will experience the happiness even a forced smile will bring eventually. It’s difficult for one to stay stressed and moody with a smile on, even if it’s painted on. Start off the day with a huge smile, regardless of the circumstances. Soon the forced smile will become a natural smile and you’ll begin feeling a tingly sensation of happiness start to arise. Not only does smiling boost your mood and confidence, it can help others cheer up as well.

2. Help Someone. Helping someone gives a sense of purpose and pride; the donor may feel a greater sense of happiness than the receiver. Even the littlest things can be of a great benefit to others, maybe just a wave or smile as they walk by to help brighten their day.

3. Meditate. Meditating can help you relieve stress and feel more at peace with the world. People who meditate daily have been reported to be happier and more confident in their ventures than people who don’t. When meditating, make sure the surrounding area has no distractions in order for you to harness the full power of meditation. Any stress, worries, and angers will be a thing of the past after mediation.

4. Be Grateful For What You Have. This of all the things in your life that you have taken for granted for so many years that would be a miracle to other more unfortunate people in this world. For starters, how about having the technology to be able to read this article? Maybe write down all the tings you feel have always neglected but should feel grateful for? Once your done, it will occur to you that your life is already so wonderful, any little unfortunate events that may happen will seem so insignificant, giving you more time to enjoy life

And for now, I love you GP. Please love me too.

Goodnight.

My sister’s keeper

I love reading. Reading takes you to places noone can.
Reading is sexy- enough said.

I’m currently reading Jodi Picoult’s My Sister’s Keeper. It’s really good! One thing I love about Picoult’s books is that they allow readers to see things through different perspectives. I’ve always admired authors- all authors, in general; they have such great passion and perseverance, and such creative minds to think of how to make a story a good read.

I doubt I ever shared this here before, but I’ve tried writing a “book” before. HAHA. I wrote all the way til chapter 22 (if I’m not wrong), and halfway, I got bored and decided to write a new storyline altogether, leaving the uncompleted story aside, and now, lost. I know right, you must be thinking that I’m dreaming too big. Who can ever picture me as an author? Haha. I doubt too, that it’ll ever happen. But it’s not wrong to dream, I guess. Perhaps in the future, given more time and passion, who knows I may have the perseverance to actually write and publish at least one book? If I ever manage to do that, I’ll be so proud of myself. And until then, this little (and possibly, silly) dream of mine shall be put right at the back of my mind.

Oh, I just found out that SS501 is having an Asia Tour, and will be coming to Singapore in December! Omg, I want I want I want!!! I have no idea where to get the tickets. So do tell me if you know ok! Enlighten me. Heh.

Will be breaking fast at grandma’s place today. Spaghetti for dinner! Whee~

Love, Nisa. ♥
