I was painting my room yesterday (Fri). Although most of the work was done by Ani, I still felt tired after everything was done.
After the freaking ceiling paint was dry, it started to crack. Yes,
THE STUPID THING CRACKED!
not just at one spot, it was everywhere. Thus, I ended up having to scrap everything off at night. My poor bed was dirtied... Oh well, as long as I can still sleep on it, it's fine.

Today, I went out with my aunt for Christmas Shopping. She got me Levi Jeans! I'm currently in need of jeans. (Yes, I still need jeans!)
After lunch (very late lunch), she fetched me to Laguna Park as I'm going to set the Christmas Tree with my cousins! :D
I asked to use the computer and they started to watch CSI.
Which brings me to where I am right now: Blogging.
I still have to find 5 GREAT pictures with my Grand parents as the focus. I must say, it is a nice idea for a present. :D

Christmas is on its way. When there's Christmas, there's usually log cakes. Log cakes.. *drools*
Uncle Peter from next door gave our family one log cake yesterday. Ahh.. it's been so long since I ate one. Since my mum is on a diet, and my dad don't eat such stuff, the cake is mine! *evil laugh*
The cake looks too good to eat!
I'm updating just because of this log cake! Yummy!!!
It's~ the season- to be giving. Fa la la la la~ la la- la la~
And a new playlist for my blog is up!!!

Whee!!! Today was super fun. Our 'gang' from CFP 06' went out to Vivo today!!! Nearly everyone. There was...
Keith, Yun Ting, Sam, Shawn, Justin, Eric, Luke, Pam... and more people whose names I can't really remember right now...
Anyway, we met up at habourfront MRT station. As usual, I was late... by 10-15 mins, I think. Sorry! We went for lunch at Vivo (a.k.a the boring place unless you have loads of money to spend). Problem came up:
Where to eat?
Come to think about it, the same thing happened when Corey, Cassie, Danny and the rest went out. We ended up eating Thai Express. (0.0)! 3 girls had to share one plate of noodles... or something like that...
Back to the problem, we solved it by.. by... I don't know. But we just went to Carl's Jr. for lunch. So much fries!!! And I shared the meal with Yun Ting can! Must eat more! Need to look a little fatter. I still remember there was a guy (same age) from CFP,
HE WAS LIGHTER THAN ME.
However, he looked... not skinny at all. Darn it...
Yes! Now I remember Eugene was with us as well! Makoto also... and Jake! :D
If it wasn't for Pam and Eugene, I think Yun Ting and I might have committed a grave sin by wasting those fries. Thanks, guys! *bear hug*
After lunch was the fun pool right at the top of Vivo. Sadly, not many people went in. It's really fun!!! Except that Cass fell from some statue thingy the last time...
On second thought, it doesn't seems all that fun now...
ParaPara in the arcade was next!!! I was kinda taken aback when Eugene said he plays ParaPara; not many guys are willing to play.
We certainly had fun :) Yun Ting and Pam was video-ing us as we played, haha. I feel so honored. :P
Pam and I went to pet safari after a while. It was getting a little boring in the arcade. (There's only so much you can do in the arcade)
Goodness! the dogs were SUPER CUTE! Although I'm scared of dogs, I don't mind looking at them through the glass. But they seem so trapped.. Poor wittle doggies...
After some more happenings, we left for Marina Square as it really boring at Vivo, unless you're Paris Hilton.
Come to think of it, we went to Vivo just for lunch.
We went to MS to watch a movie and bowling! and arcade again.. :P While waiting for our turn in the bowling alley, I entered the arcade with one purpose:
To tackle ParaPara>Freestyle>Hard.
Yes, it's time... for the next level.
(This sounds SO Mission:tackle ParaPara. :P)
Once again, I worked to Eugene in hope to pass the level. After desperate 2 attempts (that's S$2 gone!!!), we still couldn't make it to the 4th stage. Yes, that was how difficult the level was to us.
Bowling next!!! I am not good in bowling. REPEAT: I am not good in bowling.
But I managed to get off pretty well. Thanks to Shawn taking my last shot. Thanks man!
We were a little late for the movie: Curse of the Golden Flower.
Let me tell you this: The title doesn't really relate much to the story. Other than the 'Golden Flower' part. I rate it 3 of 5 stars. The fighting scenes weren't that bad.
And I was really weird. In the movie, when one of the prince killed himself (I'm not gonna say who!) and fell onto the carpet, I thought:
You dirtied the carpet! Can't you killed yourself in another place?!
Like I said, I was weird...
We went for dinner after the movie. I'm not gonna go on about it as I'm lazy.. :P
By the time we're done, it's about 10pm+. This is the first time I stayed out so late with friends. We stayed until 11+, playing truth. So fun, getting to know everyone.
We shall keep those secrets within ourselves, ok? Shhh...
Legs aching... - Crystal

It's soo cold!!! It been raining for the whole of today! Thanks goodness I had no plans for today; the rain makes it depressing to go out.
So sad! I can't go into NUS to help out because my name wasn't registered!
Sorry Xin Yi. Looks like I can't go for that free show... Remember to buy the VCD for me to watch, ok?
* * * * *
By the way, I got the urge. Yes, THAT urge.
And after the amount I spent in the art room, I never thought I would have wanted to paint again!
The urge to paint... That's it, I'm either gonna paint while I'm at the sleepover, or I get that canvas from Jenn. I want colours to be in. Just colours :D
* * * * *
Here's another 'event' to look forward to! I'm going out to Vivo with everyone from CFP!
okay, maybe not EVERYONE...
Thus, here's the wish:
"I wish, I wish, With all my might, That the rain won't come, 'Til tomorrow night."
"I hope the Sun comes, I hope the Moon stays. I Believe they would protect us, Night and Day."
Wishing, Hoping and Believing, - Crystal

Okay, Let me finish up what ever happened yesterday (Saturday) in this post.
I went to Orchard with Daphne to watch Eragon. I must say, it is a fairly nice show. Hopefully, I can borrow the book from someone. I think kiddo has it...
I thought we were going to watch the show at Cathay Cineleisure. Daphne claims that she works there... or so, she thinks.
After we reached the movie place which looked nothing like Cineleisure, she realised that she doesn't work at Cineleisure. That movie place was known as Lido... or something like that.
And the Nachos there were superb! Easy to dip into the cheese, and easy to carry. Those at GV seemed like it'll spill any moment...
We decided to go to the arcade at located at Cineleisure after the show. I was curious on what was there, and further more, Daph wanted to go. So, we went to the arcade all the way there.
There's actually quite a distance between the shaw house (I think that's what that place is called) and Cineleisure. But thanks to Cassie's directions through the phone, we managed to find our way there.
Through out our walk towards Cineleisure, Daphne was whining all the way. "How much further must we walk?" "It's so hot! Is my make up running?" "My feet hurt! And I still have to work tomorrow!"
Like HEL-LO!~ My feet hurt as well. Due to the fact that I didn't wear the socks meant for that pair of boots. I'm never doing that again. But the point is,
DO YOU SEE ME WHINING?!
Daph, grow up.
Finally, we made it to Cineleisure. Of course, our feet did hurt a little, but it's ok. I played ParaPara and we did some driving. Whoot! I actually beat Daph in driving! But I think it's a one-time thing, so yeah.
We tried to play DDR, but ended up wasting our money because we didn't know how to play it.
There goes my money... (>.<)
We took a break at Burger King and we were on our way home. Tiring day, isn't it?
Wishing, - Crystal

Here I am, trying to get everything that happened in the last few days into my blog. I'm feeling so 'leh chey' right now...
Well, a blog is a place to right my thoughts. I shouldn't care if anyone is reading this, right?
Right.
Let's start with yesterday: Friday, 15th Dec 2006.
We had 'Fun with Maths' and 'The amazing duck race' during the day. 'Fun with Maths' was really fun. The first question was something like this:
It was a very dark night..(blah blah, yada yada..) you only have one flashlight and only 2 people can cross at a time. 4 people, one taking 10mins, one taking 5mins, another taking 2mins, and the last taking 1min. Everyong is to cross the bridge in 17 mins.
Surprisingly, I managed to solve it. Wow, I guess my math ain't all that bad...
I took some pictures during of tea break. Here's one of them:
Cheryl, Yun Ting and I.
The games following it were really fun. Green group (our group) got first! Whoot!
We had lunch and 'The amazing duck race' after that. We were to break ourselves into different groups (about 8-10 per group). And I really didn't want to be in the same group as Serene!
Thank goodness I was in a different group. And I made new friends... whose names I cannot remember. Hey, I'm bad with names!
We were to collect some stuff and then 4 activites (2 dry, 2 wet) to take part in. One of it was the 'Noodles' game, where 5 members participated in it. Of course, we chose the 5 smallest sized one. Thank goodness I'm tall. I was never good in those sort of games.
After noodles was the 'Caterpillar'. It's the game where we had to move with chairs. From start to finish line.
Finally, the pool games were next. We had to suck up pool water to fill up a bottle. Gross, but it wasn't as bad as expected.
The final game was the one where we had to carry 3 people over to the other side of the pool without getting wet. The person in charged of the game was the guy who looked like my cousin. I think his name is Eric... or something like that. I like him :) In a little brother kind of way, ya know?
However, from his actions, I don't really like him. So it's:
I like him like a lil' brother in terms of looks, and I don't like him in terms of personality.
Hey, actions speak a lot about one's personality, ok?
Anyway, I went to hang out with Yun Ting they all. Then everyone was like, teasing Keith with 'ChoCho'. She the MC for our D&D. Thus, I had this impression:
'Keith like 'ChoCho'?'
I asked that question, only to be heard by Keith. Whoops.
And you know what he said?
'Aey! I never talk to you, why you say that?' (Or somthing like that.)
I was too busy laughing because the look on his face was REALLY funny. In reaction to his comment:
Keith, I'm hurt. How could you say that?! Meanie.. :P
Well, he'll never find this blog anyway... I think.
Also, I was SUCH a smartass. *Sarcasm input here*
I entered the pool without bringing any towel to bath in later, and no *ahem*unfsdfergarfmentfs*ahem* to change into. I'm just SO smart...
Well, I got through that... somehow. We changed into whatever we're wearing for D&D.
The girls had to wait for me as I was the last one to shower. Sorry, girls...
By the time we got out, the guys were already done. They seriously looked charming. Keyword here is: LOOKED.
Not that they weren't gentlemanly in attitudes. They were... fairly nice, I guess.
We went to the library since we had load of time to spare. We ended up watching Titanic... except that it was a documentary, not a movie...
Here's a group picture we took. (I coop-ed it from Pam's blog. Thanks!)
Not long later, we left the place for the vanda room. D&D started by the time we got there.
If I were to spill everything out about D&D, it will take very long. Long story short,
I enjoyed myself, I danced, I ate, our group won 2nd for the duck race (I think), and we took pictures.
Here's Aishah and Fuzaina :)
And Keith won Mr. CFP 2006. Go Keith!
Yun Ting and Keith :)
We went home after that. And that's that.
It's very late right now so I'll type all that happened on Saturday tomorrow.

We were trying to shake Serene off yesterday by not entering the same group as her. She was really getting on my nerves. And when we managed to get into a different group as her, she came running to me and went:
Ae? I thought I'm in the same group as Crystal?
Shit. She found out...
Me: Is it? I thought you were in Group 8? Serene: Is it? No leh, I want to be in the same group as you all... Tabitha: No, I think you are in Group 8, hurry, they are going away! Me: Yea. Serene: (whining) No, I want to be with Crystal!~ Me: (thinking) Goodness... Sorry guys... Teacher: ok, I'll switch you from group 8 to group 9. Everyone: (O.O)! Noooooo!!!!!
After our hard work... Why?!
This other convo was kinda funny as well.
Serene: Chang Jin- Sam: You call me Chang Jin again and I won't talk to you for the whole week! Serene: (After a few seconds) Okay lah, I won't call you Chang Jin lah.
At least, we separated after lunch. She went for fragrance, a.k.a perfume making, and the rest of us went for something about polymers. We made really nice stuff. Here are some of the things I made. Sadly, they aren't very clear...
Today...:
The day a perfect day...
Other than the fact that Serene was irritaing me like someone talking when I'm watching a movie.
And I do NOT like that.
I want to tell her how she's irritating me, but I can't get it out. I've been down that road, so it's difficult for me to say it out.
Well, what's over is over. (For now, I still have to stand her for TWO more days!!!)
New day, recharged patience. I think I can handle it... I hope.
*mimics* Ae, Crystal, You going for 'Dinner and Dance' or not?
I lied to her and said no. God, forgive me... I really don't want to shout and scream at her.
Yimin, where are you? I really hope that you come archery, okay? *hugs* Shiyun as well... *hugs*
Hope to see you guys for D&D. =)

First half of today was really boring. I won't go on about it.
However, it was fairly fun after lunch. Especially the boat ride. I was really enjoying myself when I was on the speed boat. But poor Serafina (isn't it such a beautiful name?), she fell off her seat quite a few times.
Although I got a few minor cuts from holding the rope, I really don't mind getting on board and doing it all over again. :) Sadly, we had to stop early as the stupid shelter coudn't take the 'swing' impact.
However, the shelter did hurt Sam and Serene. Sam got a cut from the drop and Serene got hit on the head. Hope they are ok.
I got home, super tired. And...
SHIT! Becker's on now! I forgot!!!! *runs to the tv*
- Crystal
-------------------A world Of PeaCe--------------- ; {9:21 PM}
The start of today was a little irritating. I know in parents' eyes,
I'll always be their little girl.
BUT, I can take care of myself (to a certain extent). Such as, choosing the food I want to eat, or HOW to eat fish.
Dad, I know how to eat that horrible fish you gave me, I know that you have to check for bones as you eat. There's no need for telling me when to stop or when to start to drink my Milo.
Besides, it's not like I am bed-ridden with an illness or anything as such (God forbid). I can eat on my own.
Sigh, well, Fathers will be Fathers.
Went shopping with my Mum after that. Short shopping, since I didn't feel like shopping that much.
I'll end here.
Sweet, sugar, Candyman~ - Crystal
-------------------A world Of PeaCe--------------- ; {5:12 PM}
I'm currently depressed. That stupid MP3 can only store 4 songs.
FOUR SONGS!
Apparently, there's more stuff in there and I can't get it out. Gosh, I really hope to get an iPod!
I went for that dinner party thingy held at my mom's 'office'. Wow... There was SO much food!!!
Not.
Seriously, there was only enough food for three people per table. I would've been stomach-growing right now if it wasn't for the second round from the other people who didn't want to eat.
(In other words: leftovers.)
Okay, I might be exaggerating a little... But you get my point, don't you?
Music and food deprived, - Crystal
-------------------A world Of PeaCe--------------- ; {12:59 AM}
First half of the day was real boring, except for the Aerospace part. I could have fallen asleep.
Well, I did.
Anyway, we had a briefing about the School of triple E (3E) which stands for the the school of Electrical and Electronics Engineering.
As usual, I fell asleep. (Yes, again!)
Then Tabita (I think), told us that she saw nearly the whole of our row ASLEEP. Haha :D
Oh, we went for electronics later. The whole front part of the lecture place was filled with interesting gadgets and machines. It was really cool.
I had no interest in Electronics Engineering at all, but I feel different towards that course now.
It seems rather fun :)
I went for Salsa dancing with my friends after the whole thing was over. After learning the steps, I realised that I've learnt the basics before! However, the routine was different.
There was no complicated names such as 'Stop-and-go' or 'double-hand-cross' (if there is anything called as such..).
Mr Hong (a.k.a. Uncle Francis) taught us all those half turns and full turns that got my head spinning... (@.@)
Overall, it was really fun! :D
Happy, - Crystal

Today was kinda fun at SP. I managed to get breakfast at Macs' (Thanks to Kor Kor). We dealt with Team Buliding before lunch today.
There was the message reply thing, and some pass-the-rope-without-letting-go-of-your-partner's-hand thingy.
After lunch, we entered the School of Design in SP. Sadly, they don't seem to have the Design course for Visual Communications.
Anyway, we were assigned to groups of 5, and were given materials to construct something 2D (the pieces of paper) to something 3D (some artistic sculpture).
It was fun, except the part where the other 4 group members made me to the presentation of our "Masterpiece". Confession time:
I cannot do crowds.
I'll probably shake uncontrollably and continue to do so even if my turn was over.
Yet, I "rose" up to that challenge. So, I started with:
"Good Afternoon, Ladies and Gentlemen..." And the crowd made some 'whoo...' sound.
After that, I just let my mouth do its job: Talk crap.
I tried to make my speech a little 'chim'.
Keyword here: TRIED.
Oh well, what's over is over.
Going for the Salsa dancing CCA at SP tomorrow. Hope that goes well :)

Gosh, SP was really boring today. However, it was useful. Now I know more about how to get into the different courses in different polytechnic.
We had talks for the first half of the programme. After lunch, was a little more talks and we left for the Vanda Room to build some car with CDs, cardboard box, satay sticks... etc.
At first I thought that our vehicle was really good, but then the CDs (wheels) were just unwilling to move! Darn it!
The table next to us Had their vehicle moving very well. (>.<)!
We were down to our last hour and the vehicle is still not compeleted. After a lot of rushing, which including liquid getting blown into the balloon (Eewww!), we got it done.
Although it didn't move very far, at least it moved. :)
Gwen was making those sounds with the balloon. It was meant to irritate that 'great' team beside us. After the air 'finished', Gwen said:
"Who go and make that sound huh? So irritating..." *insert laughter here*
That ends the day.
Tomorrow starts at 8.45am. I'm getting Ah Xin Kor Kor to fetch me there. Hope I can wake up early...

-------------------A world Of PeaCe--------------- ; {9:27 PM}
I went for only half of the programme on the last day of TP RAWKS. I just remembered about the Wedding dinner I'll be attending that night.
I left right after lunch. I wondered how was the 'Jam and Hop' thing at TP. If anyone reading this knows what happened, please let me know how it was by tagging on my tagboard. Thanks in advance.
I slept like a log the moment I reached home. I was just so tired...
Dinner was the same as always. You know, one of those Chinese 'Jia4 Do4' (in Hokkien).
And I missed InuYasha! No!!! Ok, someone, PLEASE tell me what episode showed on Friday the 1st of December.
ONEGAI-DES! (please in Jap)
Anyway, Saturday, the day where I have to go out for over 6 hours. Where at least 3 hours are used to recuperate my sleep loss. *snore*
I seems to be a little crazy with the music from the movie, 'Step Up'. Currently, the one I'm listening to is the song from the dance club scene.
The song is called, 'Til The Dawn' by Drew Sidora (Lucy) feat Mario (Myles).
I'll post the song once I get hold of it :)
Cheers, - Crystal
