I HEART TWILIGHT XOXO

nuff said.
happy new year in advance ppl:)

ciao, tuuu oh oh ate!

Dear 2008

i have to say that you have given me a very fulfilling year with many challanges to overcome, happy moments and not so great ones either.

For the wonderful occassions just to name a few like:

the countless outings and baking sessions with my girls,

swimming, gyming, shopping or just plain chilling and gossiping with wee wee,

the many celebrations with besties(usually at nic's house),

festive seasons with my family,

competitions with the meridian warriors

and goofing around with my PE mates at PE college

i was so glad to have lived that moment and would never trade it for anything else

and how about the not so good moments like:

the A level results

the period awaiting the NIE intake news

WORKING AT XM

mugging for exams

the countless leg injuries i had

backing out of competitions, trials

BLOGGING SAGA

i give thanks to these moments as well cause it made me a stronger and better person who is never suere of what she wants and what she ought to do better.

i know i was not the best that i can or should be this year and hence i will take forth the lessons learnt this year and work on it in 09 and who know what to expect in the coming year.

but one thing is for sure, i know it wouldn't be a bed of roses nor do i hope for it to be a treacherous sea of fire. Hopefully i will learn just as much as i can from 09 just as i have from you.

hopefully bonds forged with whoever and whenever will no longer be broken cause as nonchalant as i may appear, i treasure friendships like gold.

but for the temporaries like wee wee and chelby, i will miss you dearly in 09 cause you won't be here with me like you have in 08.

i dunno why but 09 seems very promising but it can only be the best i make of myself

so we shall wait and see how i fair

i promise i shall really start t******* seriouslly when i get back

with whom i dunno, but i definitely will

so bye 08 and i'll say helloooo 09 in macau!!

***********************************************

went back to hall yesterday to clean up since i would only be back one day before school starts and i wouldn't wanna clean then

the stupid hall was damn freaking dirty

this is my fan with many tiny rectangular vents where the wind comes out from obviouslyi took a Q tip and stick it inside one of the vents to clean it and out comes

...

...

...

this piece of dust bunnie

and not to mention, my wardrobe reeks of death or something, i have no idea why

when i pulled out one of my black top from inside, i was damn shocked to find that it has mould growing all over it.

but im so glad i went back to clear it

did some laundry as well.

yan yan we need to come up with some housekeeping plan when i get back.

i already have a rough idea of how it is going to work already

if im going to be a better person in 09 i might as well start with personal hygiene.

*************************************************************************

i seriouslly have no idea whats the rave over the stupid twilight novels that everyone is having,

but just get over it please

watch the movie and get over with it

speaking of twilight

yan yan told me the main character vampire guy is actually Cedric Diggory from Harry Potter

didnt knew that

its amazing how overnight fame can come to a small time actor just because of one film

According to Gina, the film is not even very good to begin with

and so many girls are gushing over the main character of the film

how can you find a pale faced man with blood shot eyes to be appealing in any way at all??

omg

seriously, get over with it.

i shall go watch the movie later on in the evening and tell you how it went

maybe the next post will be titled

"I HEART TWILIGHT XOXO"

you may never know.

oh. and im reading some chick flick by sohie kinseller now called "Remember me?"

ive read all her books except for the shopaholic series.

this is another case of twilight

everyone raving over a book

anyway, i just want to say that i picture Eric to look like the guy from the Dolce and Gabbana perfume "the One" advert

its so random but its been in my mind and im usually very good at these, like pointing out who looks like who and what looks like what

one fine example would be:

i pointed out that yan yan looks like a bear

hhaha

anyway

if you have read ithe book

tell me if you feel the same way????

okay.. all for 2008.

next post will be in 09

omg. this blog will move into 3 full years in existence going four.

i can't believe it

shame on you ppl who keep closing and creating new accts(PEISHIT) and wasting space in the cyber world!!

its like rearing a pet and watching it grow up

im so proud of myself

*fanning the tears that are welling up in my eyes*

BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

hallehujah for google

i have to stress im really bored at home
so i googled phoaphat's full name
the cute and pro thai canoeist i saw for 3 days at SEACC??

Dear Chelsea,

i am writing an open letter to you hopin that you will read my blog for one last time before you leave for Canada. This blog was started partly because of you and the rest of the girls because you girls kept egging me to start one and here i am 3 years on.

Please please do not forget us 3 years down the road when you're all settled in Canada because you know we'll be here missing you

the "four of us" is now down to three.

perhaps we can now call ourselves the 3 musketeers, the 3 amigoes or even the 3 blind mices.

but you know it wouldn't be the same anymore right?

i would alwasy remembr how us two especially used to laugh our lungs about the silliest things like your stupid chicken wing joint, your imitation of a thai , your stupid hokkien sentences, your father, you dog, muscle, Mr Tan and so much more

and how can we forget.

you were my study buddy all the way man

perhaps why we got sucky results

but... thats not the point

Hope you will really enjoy yourself in Canada and make many awesome and great friends like us. But please do keep in touch with us every now and then. I reckon it will be very difficult and that i will not be as familiar and comfortable with you some time later. But this is what distance does to relationships. If i do not say hi, say hi to me first. Okay?

i guess its goodbye for now Chelby Ng

i'll see you real soon

real soon

love

Jacqueline

you're right outside their door. just walk in!

post South East Asia Canoe Championships.
realy glad i was there to witness the whole event
racing at the international level is certaintly a whole new league even for experienced paddlers like me
it was definitely an eye opener
now that it is finally over, i am sitting at home infront of my laptop feeling a little depressed.
i am seriouslly sighing and feeling a little shitty right now i have to say.
oh man, post SEACC withdrawal sydromes.

these three days, i have witnessed some of the best and worst races i have seen
seeing random people donning the national colours makes me all tingly inside and jealous to a certain level
was chatting with miss lim and it just suddenly hit me after she told me this particular line
"you've been walking up and down right outside there door for years. why don't you just step in?"
i replied, "i don't think im good enough for them yet"
and she went on to say "do you want to bear everyone in the team before you finally agree to go for trials again?"
this hit homerun for me and realy got me thinking and thinking

but seriouslly that was what i really wanted to do for the longest period of time
after my first trials where i did race miss lim herself and SEACC trials
i was really impressed with her and saw her as the benchmark of how i am supposed to be if i even want to make it in there
but i have to say seeing the races and the level of competition these past 3 days,
i really should have been there racing my lungs out.
it always ends with the "i should have been there" isn't it?

miss lim said "your ego is really preventing you from doing alot of things"
and she bingo-ed once again
next sem is gonna be a canoe and study sem for me
i'll be jacq the robot for one sem if i can really take it
i shall try though
cause no more shoulda woulda and coulda for me
totallu sick of it
but i reckon i'll be dead beat which i am so not excited about at the same time

now its finally off my chest im feeling much better
but still a little depressed
because i can't get to see team thailand anymore
the guys in team thailand are like SUPER CUTE
especially this very fast canoeist called phoaphat
you say his name as "pau pat"
aww man i tell you
i was swooning all the time
he was the best canoeist around winning the gold in most of his events even though they got lousier boats than competitors like Vietnam and Singapore
i wished i have a picture right now
but no.
i shall check the SCF website constantly and post it up immediately when i get it
i was helping team thailand open their shed for the past 3 days
lucky me:)
the last NCC when team thailand came down, i don't remeber seeing cute guys at all man
it was all like normal thai man who were burnt and middle age looking
what happened?
phaophat is so good looking and also a damn good canoeist. double threat.
but whatever it is, phaophat is gone
boo
boo
boo
boo
booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
i think i need a few days to get over my imaginary boyfriend

2 days to africa
i am starting to hear some
awimoweh awimoweh awimoweh awimoweh awimoweh awimoweh awimoweh
but.........
trainings with Mr Sng at bedok reservoir till the very day i fly cause its a night flight
cant wait to canoe like the wind again or at least feel like it?
wheee
booo
wheee
boo
whee
boo
im in a terribal emotional state right now
bye

all set to jet

next tuesday midnight which is technically wednesday
will be off to south africa
yay

met up with nicole and gang last week for dinner
and a random chat of travelling over a cup of drink actually turned out to a full scale holiday plan
tickets and hotel were quickly booked after that
and we're set to fly on the 31st and return on the dawn of 4th Jan 09
this means i'll be counting down to the new year in another country
oh.. and destination is Macau
this is obviously a shopping trip beacause young ppl have no business to be in Macau
we do not have loads of money to burn in the casino anyway
Macua just happens to be strategically located in between China and Hong Kong
so much of shoppa, so little timma
yay yay yay yay yay yay yay
i can't wait

other stuff are bugging me right now
all i can say is
i'm just plain lazy

dear god, please give me strength
espescially strength in the mind to help me follow through what i promised to do
if not i'll be such a loser

i had fun baking with chelby and girls today
she too set to fly off on monday
i;ll miss you like siao
training tomorrow
give me strength!
to wake up

be safe

of all places, Marcus just happens to be in Mumbai for the week
messaged him yesterday
glad he replied saying "he's still alive for now"
hurry come back
and don't die there
