past week

so much's happened! stj, esperanza and other random stuff (: so yes:

ESPERANZA. went to watch zhengshan and tzin perform! woah the j1 ensemble sounded really good considering they've only been at it for about 4 months? i think all the performers looked really good and it was super cool to see zhengshan in her dress! hahaha great job friend! <3 pics still with emily though.

STJ. our team filled up two long rows of tables and we were really spastic and cam-whoring throughout haha! ate our way through loads of unhealthy stuff (twin and i gained 400g each from last week. how sad is that ): ) and took ALOT of scandalous photos. haha i'll post them up when juan uploads them! (:

okay i need a new post to... -points up-

i miss training

this is random but i wanted to say i'm super touched by what vic-ki did for me. writing me a letter when i was sleeping beside her on the bus then slipping it onto my file :D

SPA'S OVER = yayness! and debbie told me about the cc beforehand which totally saved my life. thanks dear! (:

this week's been a very sick-ish week, i dont think i've ever been so affected by a lousy flu before in my entire life ): am rather sad cos my ct tutor doubts my studies and my pe teacher doubts my health, and they both blame it on...yea. i thought my studies improved, and that i put on some muscle mass (i've definitely put on weight. 3kg! :D ), but maybe there's still work to be done. ): and it doesnt help that i've missed a total of 3 trainings this week. i miss doing pullups, i miss training with the team, i miss running with shuaige! haha which is saying ALOT kaes cos everyone knows how much xinhui hates running. see shuaige you're my motivation! (:

alright i'm going off to bed 9at the wonderfully late time of 8.09 pm). i'm doing nothing but sleeping these days! rah.

i swear i've got some of the nicest teachers in the world. i mean not all, but i really like mr tan, mrs toh and mr cheong (: it's the aura they give off that kinda remind me of st nicks teachers. the way mr cheong teaches (which is almost exactly like gwong's :D ), bickering with mrs toh about whether its possible for me to get an A (highly impossible) and the super spastic convos with mr tan that're always super amusing :D

am still sick but after spa tmr=no tests for a week! plus guitar concert plus canoe stj over the weekend <3

haha MAYBE, just maybe, i'm going to go cut hair with twin after tests. and maybe (an even huger maybe) i'll actually dress up for guitar concert and give ansel a heart attack. hahaha my maybes sound really dubious, dont expect anything much! teehee.

ignorance is bliss

i don't like being sick, which i've been experiencing a lot lately. specifically, it's the kind of sick where it's not-sick-enough-to-miss-school-or-training, yet definitely-will-get-really-sick-if-going-ahead-with-school-or-training kinda sick. sucks doesnt it? ): ahhh am i even making sense.

dynamics. been discussing alot of that with chejian, shar and zhengshan lately, and i dont even make complete sense of everything that's going on /: after everything, how d'you even know who to trust, and who not to? our school's so small that it's creepy, like when i called ah pek 'sotong' on monday and he got a huge shock. is it worthwhile going all out to define/maintain friendships that dont exist, is it better to know what's going on around you and attempt to make a difference, or is it just best to hide in your own bubble world? and really. i hate it when people judge others by listening blindy to what their friends say. cos after all, aren't the bravest people actually those who're able to sit on the fence and maintain close friendships with two warring people without taking sides?

you people dont deserve to judge us just cos we didnt come from your school.
and after 4 yrs. isnt it to give them a new start, even if they did come from your school.

ahhh nvm i shall think of shuaige and be happy. HAHAHA see dear your name's here :D

once a guide, always a guide

bio mugging = slightly productive. aim for S hahaha! my angel's encouraging words (:

yesterday night was fairly emotic but i've sorta gotten over it. thanks cj! on a lighter note, yesterday's water training was the best i've put myself through for countless weeks (: haha remembering the first time shar and i went for racesets...it was pure disaster which really made me doubt if i wanted to continue hcanoe, and everything kind of went downhill from there. but after nafa, the motivation just came back :D

xinhui promises to do her best,
to do her duty to God,
to serve her country and help other people,
and to keep the Guide Law.

amazing how i can still recite the three-fold promise after so long, but hey, our company tee says ONCE A GUIDE, ALWAYS A GUIDE :D

repeat the first line over and over again! yayyyy.

inspiring speech which makes us wanna work harder (:

yesterday's gym session was mega fun? we waited for hx to come over so in the mean time hcanoe girls ran around happily playing with gym stuff :D haha i seriously love the assisted pullups machine alot! though i'm still really scared of IPU but SPU's great. heh i went over to watch zhonghan and chejian do their routine and (oops) made zhonghan drop his weights hahaha! sorry partner :D

oh yea fangting and i are doing o lvl studying format again, which is basically to mug as much as possible, get all concepts straight and ignore/fail all current tests while we're at it, aiming only for a final goal. which in this case has gotta be promos i guess. hoo hopefully it'll end by next week yup.

sat morning = being happy out on water with team. but for the first saturday since ages i'm sitting at home with my screwed up back instead. anyone surprised that twin's down with flu too? ):

og dinner was good! waited mega long for mr ongsiquan to finish his training then went off with sarah, chenchi, zhonghan, tzin, wanjing (: and hahaha i finally got to go to ISLAND CREAMERY! :D the very berry icecream tasted like cheese but it was heck fun shooting hoops with our sticks, and sitting on the kiddy machine. missed jieyang though, something to do with his chickenpox=cannot eat dark sauce ): rahhhh.

this week= emotionally screwed up. thank God for gaomin and sharon..

mm. deleted this place and put it back, all in the short span of two days. kinda stupid isnt it? i think i should listen to nickoh and tell more ppl my add though, cos right now it's only teammates + zhengy that know.

yesterday. missed twin like super mega loads? D: never properly appreciated the way we read each other's actions and moods out on water until she wasn't there ): the kboat had sth resembling my initials with 'bronze' and this motivational msg inside, which cheered me up. slightly (:

motivation for homework = increasing exponentially.
passion for ___ = decreasing slightly ):


and i told you i wouldnt quit, those many weeks ago.
and we've both changed, havnt we? for better or for worse.
