Oops... I didn't know I had many readers to this blog.

Not like I knew how to find out through some really complicated way of looking at the number of people per day who visit my blog. I'm quite computer-stupid that way. By choice, I stress. Cos I'm too lazy to bother with stuff like that. Hence the really boring template.

So, like, Jen, updating here, and I'm not a himbo, you thing. *pushes you, and you flail really wildly with your hands waving in erratic arcs before you let out a scream and totally embarrass yourself and everyone stares at you and you try to act all demure by putting your hand to your mouth in a dignified 'Oops!' way which try as you might, you can't pull off due to your lack of sophistication and class*

Whoa. That was one long role-play.

So today was okay, I guess.. Getting back into the swing of things into school... I being my more warm, amiable, vibrant personality I was in Orientation 1 *grins wildly as I hate to put stupid emoticons unless they're really necessary*.

And I went for another test today. Will the tests never stop coming!?!?!

Yep, it was the H3 Math Selection Test. Which I didn't really feel like going for. But John dragged me along. (He has this really weird, gross face when he pouts, so I go along to keep my innards from forcing their way up my body and into whatever place I choose to vomit at/into/in. Don't tell him I said that.) It was quite cool, actually... The test was really fun!!!

I just saw that particular school's SYF rehearsal. That school which was before us. The School-Which-Shall-Not-Be-Named-Due-To-Me-Not-Wanting-To-Be-A-Total-Bitch-And-Blacklisting-Their-School-Name-And-Getting-Myself-Into-Trouble. That school.

I just got SO whatever about the whole thing. I mean, really. But whatever.

Gosh, I miss dance... I really, really miss it... There was a meeting today, and I didn't go... I miss the people too... Both J1s and J2s, I guess, taking back what I said. But I'll want to continue dancing. I will. (Note: This does not, however, permit my class, dear 07A06 and anyone outside, to carry on calling me "Graceful" or "Dancer" since I have officially quit Dance in school. HA. Not like that's a good thing. But still.)

So we had House Council elections today. I voted for the bimbotic girls since I didn't know who else to vote. There was this girl who went up with a totally bimbotic voice and told us a joke. "So, like, I'm going to tell a blonde joke, ok? (Side comment from Jillian: That's so ironic.) Anyways, there're this group of blondes, right, and they go into this pub, right, and they, like, order a round of shots, and they, like, toast while saying '57 days!' So they keep ordering rounds of shots and toasting '57 days!' So, like, around the 8th round, the bartender goes up to them and asked them what they were celebrating. So these group of girls, they go, like, 'Oh, we just completed a jigsaw puzzle, and on the box, it said to 2-4 years old'."

I laughed. Really loudly. And it sounded like it was only my voice in the CC. Looked like I was the only one who got it. (This does not, in any way, say anything about my character since I got it.)

Then Rachel started telling blonde jokes as well, after we left and I was drinking a *pause for breath of joy* Ice-Blended Chocolate Mocha (seriously, I think coffee was hand-made and engineered by God).

So, like, I'm rambling on, and I've to go off soon cos my sis is all, "I'm dying to play Urbz. Can you help me download?"

What a drama queen.

(Anyone who says "Ironic much???" will be so dead.)

Novelty is SO overrated... In some circles, at least.

What a hectic day.

Tiring, tiring, tiring. I literally fell asleep.

Yesterday, I was so nervous before going onstage for SYF.

Today, I was so nervous in the morning before getting the results.

Then after the results were out, I was so nervous waiting for the Student Council interview to start.

Then after it started, I was so nervous. While I had it.

Nerves, nerves, nerves.

So first, some ranting.

We got Gold, only. Without honours. That was so sad. Many people cried.

But I think the main reason for crying was the total unfairness of the judging.

I mean, 7 JCs out of 15 got Gold with Honours!!!

Not that I'm being biased, but still!!!

The JC before us (I shall not mention any names) did some random thing with weird ball-skirt structures as skirts. And they lifted it way high above their heads. And the music was techno. And the dancing wasn't even together!!! It was so untidy. But they got Gold with Honours.

I mean, seriously. MJ did really, really well in my opinion. The dance was so cool, the concept and all that, it was really, really good. What did they get? Gold.

I think those JCs with props or NOVEL ideas got Gold with Honours. I mean, seriously, people, one of the other JCs/institutes had a really, really good idea. And the dancing wasn't bad (that was one flexible girl). But during the group dancing, it was quite messy, and I got this really unnervy feeling while watching it. I thought they should've gotten a Gold. They did. With Honours.

I think the judging was really unfair. And I should really stop griping about it. I have to applaud the seniors, though. They really put on a brave front and told the whole team that we know we did well, so we shouldn't really bother. True words.

And then there was the interview. Gosh, when I think of the embarrassing things I said!!! Take this for example.

Interviewer: Imagine that you are the head, I'm your friend, and we have a deadline coming up. I say this, "I can just go home and sleep what. I haven't seen my girlfriend for two weeks. Why do I have to do this? If I don't do it someone else will what. Who are you to tell me what to do?"

Me (going into full bossy mode): Excuse me? I'm the head. Who am I to tell you what to do? (realizing what I've just said) Sorry, sorry, don't mean to be disrespectful.

I can't believe I said that! --> Random flashback to White Chicks: Oh, my god! I can't believe you said it!

Right.

Here was another dumb one.

Interviewer: Tell me about yourself.

Me: Umm... Okay, the kind of music I like...

Interviewer: This is not some Friendster profile thing.

Again, I can't believe I said that!!! I thought they were going to do some psychology thing, like, Oh, since you started talking about music, your character is like ________.

Embarrassing much???

Man, I can't believe the stupid things I did...

Before that, Freaking Joanne and I were in the Geog room, when I remembered what Emmanuel had told me the day before, about them being really obvious by putting a sweet wrapper on the chair, and you were supposed to put it in your pocket. So I whispered to Joanne about it, and after that, we became totally paranoid, and she was all, "Everything looks so placed!!!" and we started picking up all the disgusting rubbish around.

Alright, I think that's enough... ...

Too many things on my mind now... ...

Pandemonium and chaos fills my head.

*screams* I NEED TIME TO THINK!!!

My gosh... Haven't had time to blog in ages.

Seriously, I've been so tired recently... What with all the crazy commitments I jumped into.

I guess I just decided that this year I should stop slacking so much and get involved, then maybe I'll get somewhere.

We-ell, I guess that teacher was right (that teacher from the pre-u sem interview). She said she thought I was over-compensating.

Maybe I was, come to think off it. But, oh well..

I guess I've been down for a few weeks recently... Don't know what's wrong with me lately.

I haven't been able to summon up the energy I had in Orientation 1... Like, the hyper-ness just got sucked out of me or something.

It was SO tragic the other time... I went to school, walked toward the caf, and thought, "I am so bored of this place."

I was quite shocked, because really, SA is quite a good school... But I've been feeling very off lately, not feeling like socializing, walking off alone (which leads people to think I'm emo. WHICH I'm not. But this post is turning out to be something like that. Gotta change moods quick.), etc.

Novelty, novelty, novelty. It's all in the packaging.

Reminds me off a Calvin and Hobbes comic, where Calvin was talking about novelty and how it made everything seem nice. "If you can't give me something new, repackage the old so it looks new!"

I say, RIGHT ON, BILL!!!

Speaking of whom, I might be doing my PI on him. It's between him and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

So anyway, to bring people up to date with my life (what there is of it, anyway), I'M HAVING MY SYF TOMORROW!!! OMG, OMG, OMG (ok, sound like a total bimbo, but whatever)!!!

My first CCA *ahem* performance. And probably last. Which is so sad...

Man, I'm going to miss them all... J1s. J2s not really, to be truthful... Blah.

And THEN I'm going to have my Student Council interview on Thursday!!! OMG. OMG. OMG. That one's freaky too... It is, after all, my whole point for quitting *pause with dramatic look on face* my CCA. Ho-hum.

And Zhi Wei's in the same poly as Colin!!! Haha!!! So cool.. They're even in the same orientation group... Were in the same orientation group... Though NOT of the same sexual orienatation... ANYWAYS.

I'm going off now... Keeping those popcorn popping!!!

Flashback: "Raven, your popcorn stand is popping!" "I know, isn't it? Pop, pop, pop!" "Yes, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop! All over the school!" "HUH???"

Maybe that should be my theme....
