Michael Buble - Sway
------------------------------

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

~stressed!~

I was coming home this evening when I realized that I was stressed. Terribly stressed.

Events are coming and going like the world's gonna stop for me anytime soon to suit my time. China student exchange, computing coursework, physics tests, maths tests, GeePee tests....Oh man.

At least the student exchange program is over, so i don't have to do anyhthing about it, besides making a new friend.

So I was so stressed. Listened to my mp3s while on the way home on the bus with Andy, came home to wat a dinner which had salmon---one of my favourite! Still stressed, so I told Ma that I'm gonna drink coke. It didn't feel enough, so I told Ma I'm going down to buy Mac's ice-cream. Hopped over to Shop N' Save later on to buy milk.

Guess what?? I saw Shu Hui!! Whew. Lucky she still recognizes me, cos she looked really different now, coupled with that HCJC shirt. Smiled, and smiled back. Tada! Didn't stay to chat lah. I think her dad or something was behind and she looked kinda busy.

Oh well. A smile speaks a million words.

Funny thing was that that guy asked Shu Hui so loudly,"Who was that?!" Yeah. Like Anyone will try to pick up a girl like that lor! I must have looked like a pimp just now.

OK. Got to the kitchen to get another can of Lipton tea. Sweet tooth.

Getting back to where I was, yeah, saw a BIG BLACK cockroach at the lift lobby when I came back from school just now. It looked kinda sick, you know, the kind of sick colour when the kah zuat's brownish colour contrasts really well with light green ceramic tiles. *slaps forehead* It's still stuck on the wall at the same location when I came back from my ice-cream trip.Must have died when the dengue mosquito bit it at it's breathing holes.

Terrible.

Before I go, just have to note this down. Abigail's gonna kill me if she sees this.
*lazy to go type hanyu-pinyin*

"...chuan2 tou2 dao4 wan1 zi4 ran2 zhi2..."

Really?

Thought the norm is "chuan2 dao4 qiao2 tou2 zi4 ran2 zhi2"?

Oh well. She didn't reply--so far. Must be busy talking to Zhou Gong liao.

Yeah. Still early. Released at 8pm today. Not a big deal, but the school's rather cold at this time.

Like it's always been.

Still early. If I have the energy, I have to rewrite the cheena thingy again. Poor me. Eyes can hardly open. Good. Midge Guire telling me to Breathe. Open. BIG BIG.

Oh man.

Busy day tomorrow. Cheena people coming over. Foreign exchange program, just that we're saboed to doing it. "The teachers have great confidence in you," so says the HOD Chinese. "That's why they choose you as emcees!"

Quit it.

Have to go through again and again and again and---Stop.

Busy day ahead. Loads of shit. Can't go PE again. Man. My physical suck now. Can't run a few miles without feeling the life being sucked out of me. Reminds me. Lost floorball match with SP by one. Have to blame myself for not grabbing 2 slap-shots using the right side by a right-handed.

The unusal hand, if you didn't catch it. I was pretty clumsy. Sheila's right. Clumsy.

Heard floorball's being disbanded soon. Today's the last official training with the year 2s. Due to something going wrong in the Singapore Floorball Association. All crap. My love--floorball.

Going. NOOOOooooooooo............

This is soo full of shit. 01.09. Playlist finished. Brush teeth, wash face, write script, sleep, lights out.

Floorball.

Ahhh. Listening to Michael Buble now, definitely one of the better jazz singers now.

I dunno what's gotten into me of late---One moment, I'm like a bloody moron hating myself. And another, I'm really pissed at the others to the extent of keeping really quite. The rest is spent on being happy with myself with the way things are.

Oh no. Another mental.

Yeah. Guess I'm pretty much over it. Maths paper is still by far the worst. Incredibly sore over it. Mr Ng was in class this morning, and for all we know, he might have been checking our facial expressions for any signs of distress, pressure, problems---you name it. Told us to take it easy. Short breaks now and then to recharge ourselves.

Don't think it's that easy. The timetable's pretty tight to the extent that I reached home only at around 8pm just now.

Come to think of it, I'm much better off than either Chao Yang or *jackie. I cycled to school today---phew. The night weather's usually smoother, so I got home extra quick, with bursts of acceleration that might have scared a woman who was walking on the 5-feet-way. She actually started running on her 3 inch heels when I turned the corner along the Ring Road.

Initailly, I thought she might have been so hungry she can't wait for dinner, so she ran, but when I turned back to see again, she stopped running and walked up the steps!

Gila.

Alright. Today's plans gonna suck big time. Oh wait.

*pauses*

Right. 00.55.20

Going to school later for the CS lessons. YEah AGAIN! Then I'm going off to see the chinese teacher to prepare Valerie's and my emcee speech. Then I'll be going down to Singapore Poly to support the floorball girls.

And CJ seemed really desperate for support in the auditorium just now.

I was turning the east entrance of the audi and saw her. So i asked her if there were trainings today, and she was like--

"shawn~~shaWN~!!!
to...rROW no tra...ing~!"

Couldn't really catch what she was saying, so I kinda cupped my ears.

"TOMORROW NO TRAINING! GOT MATCH WITH SP!!!"

She looked so excited, that I thought she's just gonna faint there and then. Almost jumping for dunnowaht.

"SUPPORT SUPPORT LEH!"

I forgot about my computing exams on Monday completely, so I just nodded OKOK. Lunch was my agenda at that peak period, ya'see.

And so now I'm kinda stuck with it. Oh. Nevermind. I'll just go, since I'm familiar with most of the girls in floorball. Doesn't hurt to watch them, though girl matches are well-known to be the bo-lat kind, and si-peh noisy.

Mdm Sheila will love me soooo much for supporting. Coach will love me soooo much that he'll buy me a stick.

Dreams.

A-level coursework coming on Monday. Really time to go through some of the C++ codes again. And just had our practical test which lasted till around 7.30pm just now. I swear I don't know anything.

Maybe even worse than Sattish.

Well, we saw him while me, CY, and *jackie were strolling up the freaking slippery steps of YJC, and we kinda met him walking along the 2nd level entrance-to-lecture-hall corridors. Thought he would join us, but the strangest thing was that I didn't noticed he wasn't around till the end of the test when he just strolled in.

Oh man. Don't drop lah, Sattish. You came so far, it's not the time to back out, just try out here and there, and you've got free coaching offered by Jeff (who btw said even if he fails the exam, he'll make sure Sattish knows something).

OK. Tired. pack my bag and read a book, take a 4 hour nap, wake up, put some make-up on, and pretend to be refreshed for the next 20 hours.

Nite.

Occasionally, Chao Yang and I would march off to the library in the mornings when we didn't have any lessons *umm* while the Econs students slogged it out with the short-and-broad-waht's-his-name.

Oh. Mr Leong.

Oh yeah. Now I understand why Dawn would want her daily dose of radiation when we computing students are free in the morning. That's right.

To read rubbish on the internet.

Not all rubbish are really rubbish. I went through part of Betty's blog just a while ago, and I was actually laughting harder that I laughed at darling Zhao's blog.

*dut*

There's a freaking test coming up in about 10 seconds time...no. Sorry, that to the new day. Anyway, there's a freaking computing test today and I have no shit-idea how I'm going to handle it. Oh. F it. Most likely some pseudo code writing. Just jot some rubbish and hand them in, I think.

The harder part to accept is that we have to take this test after the last lesson, which is Physics practical, and then ChiChi wants to take over the 5-to-gawd-knows-what-time timeslot. Thus, this effectively takes up all of the time I have left in the evening to stone.

Oh yeah. Zhao left his iPod in school. Bet it's still charging. What? Since 10 this morning? Hope the school cats don't think it's some kind of mutated cotten ball, and start to roll it about. Nevermind, darling Hao, the left-over static will teach them a lesson never to play with white stuff again.

School. *sigh*

Got back my maths test paper---finally. Was like crap. Expected better than that, after how much effort I put in to forget all the formulas I was supposed to memorise. Heard the mean grade was 17.

SHocKing!

OK. The more significant thing after that was going for ChiChi's lessons. Yeah. It wasn't all that bad. Just pure regurgitation form the slides. And we went through all those before in lessons.

Had physics after that. Fit really went off, so it seemed as if half of the whole damn class went away. Not that Fit's been asking loads of questions, but when your partner-in-crime's jailed away in his Ang Mo Kio pigeon hole, and your next best source of entertainment, ie Fit, has gone off to look after a sick friend, you'll feel kinda lonely.

Yes. Shawn does feel lonely some times.

The 3 stones behind have rolled over to East Germany, so Western Democratic Germany has left only one or 2 pathetic rotting corpses to reserve the territory.

And I can't believe I blew up at *jackie just now. Really sorry, dude. I'm kinda close to suicide at this point. Must have been the project work.

Anyway, people, I'm cool.

During the lunch break, Andy was in class. And I think I was doing something to the re-evaluation of the PW articles.

"Aye Shawn. Don't look so stressed leh!"

"Ah?" *I think I turned around at this point of time*

"Play golf?"

It took some time to et the "play golf" part sink in. *Shawn then remembered that he gave a weak smile and said:*

"Maybe later."

Turned back to my work.

Sumardi was funny. He was close to beating up Andy.

"Eh. Ni bu yao na zhou wo de ren!" (roughly translates as : you don't take away my man)

"Ta xian zai hen mang!" (he's fking busy right now)

Fit's right. The Government should take away PW as a criterion for entering university. It pure child abuse. No wonder some parents complain that their pure virgin-innocent kids turned out to be ugly-pimp-prostitute-pandas when they come out from college. It's project work that makes them want to try out what their moms and pops told them NOT to do, just for the sake of the thrill of not doing that they USUALLY do, perphaps PW. 

Maybe they should ban suicide as a research topic altogether instead.

*A-tishoo*

Gosh. The breeze's coming in. And at this time. Rather odd timing for it to come in.

Nah. Don't think it's the wind.

I'm sick.

Remembered I woke up last night with a jolt. Thought something went wrong with my nasal cavity. Couldn't breathe properly, but it was still quite early, so I went back to sleep. This morning was still fine. Cycled to school as per normal. The real shit came in after morning assembly. Dunno. Just felt sianed.

Just knew something was not alright when I didn't eat properly on Saturday and Sunday.

So sick. *sniffs*

50 candies down that I'll spread it to at least one other person in class.

You bet school wasn't fun today.

Morning didn't start too well. Slacked for 2 hours when i'm supposed to have finished the article review for PW today. Saw Sumardi's expression when i told him. He was like "YEAH! One more person who didn't do his job...HA-HA..."

Computing wasn't fun either. The shell-sorting literally got to me. Shell-shocked. Frankly, nothing got into my brain while "ChiChi" was speaking. Helped to class along by being stupid and saying all the wrong stuff. I knew I'm really sick when Chinese came along. Lost my sanity for a while when I shouted something inaudible. People, if you're reading this, don't take ZX seriously. He's either brain-burnt or that he's drunk from all the water he downed.

GeePee, obviously --- not fun. Nothing went in. Nothing came out. Was busy rubbing my nose the way Jasmine thought me (to relieve the stuffiness) when Mrs Tan shot some stupid question. She looked at me, as if expecting some sort of intelligent answer. I thought better than to say stupid things while 'drunk', so gave her that really blank look to shoo her horrible glance away.

It worked.

Anyway, I just came to realize (while half-asleep on the couch a while ago), how much publicity my blog's getting at this point of time. Don't appreciate it.

Really.

Either I have to put a bloody counter to take note of the number of visits or I have to take the whole bloody blog down. I'll see what I can do.

Ok. Shawn is terribly sick now. *sniffs*.....*a-tishoo* Even an effort to type properly.

OK. Putting one more post here doesn't mean that I have all the time in the world.

Just a bit tired of school work. Guess what? 22 errors in my source code is REALLY a turn off.

Just saw a clip from TV, a few men promoting themselves as the "Singapore Idol".

Yeah right.

Where was I?.....Oh yeah. School wasn't all that bad, considering that the NE reps had this little session with Anbu Ganesh K.. Something to do with what can the school organing committee do to pump up the spirit while celebrating National Day. And he goes on-and-on about those rubbish and houses and classes...

Get real, Anbu. You need the school spirit in the first place to get shit done. So jolly well get it going by relaxing the rules abit, or you'll be the one going soon.

As usual, typing this post at home. There my ma is in the same room as me, watching her Superman show while I slog away doing my blog my faithful duty.

Just completed a survey for Marcus. Didn't realize that dude's studying in Meridian JC. Thought he was in Seragoon. Ok. Maybe that's Jinze. Maybe Jinze's not even in SRJC. Gosh. Please don't kill me when you guys read this. Don't keep in touch wiht my sec 2 friends very much. And it's showing, isn't it?

Time now's 10.50pm...hmm... A bit of celebration here. I completed my chinses composition after gawd-knows-how-long. Ms Ang's been after my poor neck ever since I started chinese lessons at the start of term 3. I know. Going to be slaughted sooner if I don't do it. And no, I can't possibly use *Jackie's school schedule as my bench mark. He's stinks. Can't use anyone else's schedule (from my class) as my benchmark anyway. They are waaaay outdated.

Poured myself a mug of milk. Have to thank my lucky stars I don't have a peeing mug like Zhi Hao does. Okaai. maybe It does sweat now and then. Who doesn't in this weather?

School didn't stink very much today, except for Letricia's lesson. getting rather sick of her. She really can't teach, you know. All that shit coming from her mouth must have been muffled at her bloody throat. Flam, perphaps. So I ended up in the classroom rather busy with myself completing the remains of my tutorial 9.2, and not much stopping from her. Either she didn't see, or thought I was too smart so she let us do our own stuff, while the girls infront copy like in a mad frenzy, and the 3 stones behind me, well...stone.

*jackie was like "AIYOH. why she keep repeating her points???? SO pointless! Aiyah, I do my tutorial much better." Attention here. It's has NEVER been normal for *jackie to do his homework. So I consider it a miracle that Letricia's around.

Felt kinda shitty this afternoon.

Cindy was telling me "Eh Shawn, you better buck up about ABG,(riiight, Cindy never used the name "ABG" before), I heard another guy's interested in her."

"Ahh...who?"

"Dunno. Some guy in the next class (points to 109's direction)"

Gawd. First of all, I wish to state that I'm giving us space. Go ahead. If you survive enough to read this, tell her this. I haven't really given up, not when she didn't say "no". And not when she doesn't reply my ridiculously bo liao messages anymore. Even I'm attacking my own conscious.

Great.

It's not that I didn't try.

Too many people's around all the time. They're not giving me the opportunity. Riiight. Even one Clare around's one too many.

Now I'm getting scared after hearing Cindy's talk. I'm not sure whether *jackie's setting this trap up for me, but yes---I'm getting scared about losing her.

Don't worry, kiddo, you still have your composure.

Freak!!

What time is it? Oh yeah. 01:27:20, blinks my Mandrake's system clock.

Gosh. Wanted to wash my face about one hour ago. Guessed Changi distracted me with his awful lot about all that rubbish. Grrr...All thanks to him, I now get to sleep with fresher breathe --- not all that bad, is it?

Reckon I did about half of the whole written report for my project work. When this is over, I'll knock everyone in the group hard with my floorball stick for choosing this suicide topic. I think my word processor did so much typing of the word "suicide" that it's ready to say "Suicide again?" the next time I log in.

The thought of jumping flashed through my mine a few time just know. Kidna stupid, i know, but it's just flashes, and I managed to overcome them.

*Phew*

Floorball training tommorrow....um...later...still kinda hard to get used to this pattern of speech. Havn't been using it for some while now. Oh right. Have to reload my songs, and pack my bag.

Ok. Nite nite, world.

Can't say that I've lost alot of time anywhere for this weekend, but I'm just wondering where has time gone?

The whole of yesterday was spent on the stupid RHD thingy. Wasted my time there. Shouldn't have went at all. Left all the bitches and bastards alone and just go away.

Oh yeah. Went over to Funan to get the mouse sponsed by SingNet. Cheapo company can't get the shit sent to SingPost outlets, so I have to go down to the Software Boutique myself to get the nonsense. The mouse's too small anywhere, so I might not be using it at all.

Trip there wasn't too bad. At least I get to walk to new places. Fustrating thing was I had to wait for a whole 20 minutes for the stupid 170 to get to Bugis. 2 170s came after 20 minutes. Not a real surprise from SBS Transit. Their drivers' got terrible sense of timing.

Took the train to City Hall after that. Could have went up to visit my tuition, but decided against it, since my tummy's calling louder. Wasted chance. Haha. Might have gotten some some of that fabulous biscuits that they used to give out from that tin when I used to be there.

Sigh. Those were the times.

Went with Ma to the airport today to get something that my dad's friend had couried over from Indonesia. Pa mentioned in his sms that he looked like Mr Yeh, only slightly thinner, but the more I thought of this Mr Tsai fella, the only thing Tsai had in common with Yeh is yeh's baldness, but Tsai's perfectly fit for someone who's about 55? Can't guess from his appearence that he owns his won company and drives a Merc.

Impressive.

Ok. Have to finish up the written report. 4 people's lives depend on it, and another 2 will slit my throat if I don't hand in tommorrow.

Later.

Just occured to me how long I've not been writing. Not that I mind much, but while I pennning my GeePee last night, I got kinda stuck with all the nonsense I had to rewrite. It didn't feel good.

And I hate it when I get stuck while writing. It takes forever to restart and running.

Blogging in school for the first time ever. No. I got really bored, that's why I'm wring something. Just finished helping my bro print his nonsense for his class..

OK. Life's boring. Hectic too.

Contradicting, isn't it?

I've got a floorball match coming up tommorrow afternoon, and it's at Northbrooks!

But at the same time, I have to go for training at CCAB for the stupid racial harmony shit. Can't believe how training at this national basis is good for you.

Not that I don't like it...Johnathan is there..Zach's there too...Junxian's there.. but I don't like the fact that I seem to be stuck with abigail when i least have the mood to be.

Kinda long story, so i won't bother to write. Noone's interested anyway.

SO the damn thing is that after my Chinese AO listening comprehension tommorrow morning, I'll be off to CCAB again. Horrible place. Darn ulu. Bus trip itself takes about 1 hour.

Gotta go. Write again tonight.

Came back from training. And for the first time ever, I felt right at home where floorball is concerned. Partly because of the jersey, everyone's seeing everyone else as a team player. Rather cool, isn't it?

Yeah. Found that there's 2 other floorball senior girls who are also former Andersonians. Three cheers for Sub and her friend!

Had the Maths Test just now in the morning. Think I'm going to screw this one up. I for got a lot of the formulas and only recovered part of it at the very end. Confirm fail. It's so full of shit even Hasyir said he might not make it. I read as many people's expression as I could just now, and not many happy faces around.

C'mon! The paper wasn't that horrible, just that everyone didn't study--me included.

This is just soooo full of shit. Better go read the papers now.

Life sucks.

Almost like a cold war.

It's been known that it takes 2 hands to clap and make a sound. But when one hand is trying to do something that mimics a clapping action, the more tendency for it to keep waving in the air like crazy. This is when the person gets tired....and so go away and clap someone else's hand.

When the person A who ignored the previous person(B)'s claps, finally decides to respond, it'll be too late.

Person B might not come back. Not even believe it. Not even think of it.

He's going. It's a fact.
