the 29th council has always been this strong, this united, this loving. a big family (: yesterday marked the birth of a new exco and the 30th council. call it a sense of satisfaction, call it the sudden relief that washed over me; the amount of pride i felt was indescribable. and then i realise, its the beginning of an end to how far we've come. we'll be ready when the curtain falls, the lights fading away.. this is the closing of a legendary story, of the 29th (: 3:13 PM
its that time of the day when you just dont feel like doing anything at all. absolutely NOTHING. mawww. yet theres homework piling up in my planner on the page that says 29 april, and i'm like so not motivated to do any of them. sheer determination needed here.a while ago i finished the novel My Sister's Keeper, and the ending of it touched me so. for of all the things in the world, i never expected the girl, anna, to die just like that. if this story were real, i would have liked to tell her that i truly admired the way she stood her stand and was the guardian angel for her dying sister kate. the way she's forced to grow up in such a short time, the way she's learnt to brave the odds and do what she feels is right for herself, the way she feels for kate.. all touched me to the very soul; for anna to die in that unprecedented car accident and her kidney donated to kate, yet she didnt live to be thanked for. and as anna puts it just before tragedy struck her, "only one thing is constant. ' ten years from now, ' i say, ' i'd like to be kate's sister.' "
the purest love and kinship for the sister. the tears are at it again.
i know i should just stop reading novels anymore, but i cant help it! sigh. its been such a fruitful read.

life isnt that complicated after all (: now that i've sorted out my feelings and thoughts, i'm feeling a tad relieved now (or so i hope!) that i no longer have to be irked by my own fluctuating emotions all the time.and yet i wonder, if i'm doing the right thing? i hope so.
some things are better best forgotten. time to look forward and follow the beat. one two one two... down down down. to where? nobody knows. i just hope it can be a simple walk down memory lane where i can think about the past and be reminiscent (: one thats filled with plain love and joy for all that we've been through. one that etches all its memories into my heart.
and so, this saturday the college will be celebrating its 30th anniversary! cant wait (: yay.
so mnay things to do, yet so little time. its been a while since i've been shopping or to town. rahh, and movies too. but i know i've a movie date with someone soon (: yayness. and so, this is the misery of a jc2 student. sad huh.
till then, tata world.

300th post (: grins. ok i'm mad to post two entrees for today but oh well.recently theres been this big trend to cut the hair short. as in short like it forms a frame around your face, and it sits all pretty and neat like a crown on your head. take a look around you; c'mon, it aint that hard to find one or two girls with their new hairstyles! (: grins. nice. and i mean it!
and not forgetting how soon that day will come for us to officially step down and all. hmmm. i havent got much advice to give to the 30th council, yet i'm dying to share so many things with them. such irony. hmph. experience is the only path for them i guess. like a toddler taking his first baby steps, like the child who's just grown up and is anxious to go out and venture the world, like the teenager having moodswings.. everything's unpredictable.
time sure flies, doesnt it?

C'MON.
repeat after me.

"cos obviously, he's outta my league."

dear diaryits been three long days. 3 days, when i felt so much emotions running in me. unstoppable. i sincerely apologise to everyone whom i'd been mad at. councillors, nominees.. honestly, being the fierce me was almost like tearing my flesh out; i didnt enjoy the role i played. and i know many of us came up to me to ask, why on earth did you do that for? well as the camp ends on a final note i decided not to explain anything. somehow i feel that no words can ever make up for what i'd done.
i'll go the extra mile, for you.
ms chiew was right; i only have to answer to myself. all i could tell her was that i just couldnt close one eye and let things just get past like that; i had to do something. i did, and i felt bad. terribly bad. that friday night, i couldnt sleep a wink.
looking back on today, i'm grateful that the 29th has been supportive of one another. i know, i know, i still am the passive angie, the less prominent vice president whom not many may look up to. lester once told me, that he was looking forward to the day when he can fold arms and step aside. came saturday 7 april morning, he chided me (for the first time) for falling short of his expectations. almost immediately i was jolted awake. i'm sorry. and almost immediately i felt something heavy inside of me rise into my heart. i choked on my words when i addressed the councillors. my heart ached, i was on the verge of tears.
but deep inside, i still want to thank everyone for loving me the way i am.
many a time i have been questioning myself, why on earth did the dear president choose me to be the vice during our internal elections? why? did he see something in me that i'd failed to see? was i the right one after all? so many times, i didnt think i was up to the challenge. it always seemed that i was the weak one, who merely stood behind in the shadows, useless and inferior.
they assured me, that i was doing a good job. but i asked myself, was doing a good job what i wanted to achieve? something inside me told me that i wanted more.. yet somehow i still dont feel that i've done it. i dont know anymore.
letting go isnt that easy after all..
the day will come when the curtains fall upon us. the smiles, the tears, the laughter, the pain, the hugs, the pats, the warm embraces, the messages, the notes, the smses, the talks, the chats, the gmails. all have formed a part of my life, never to be replaced.
flames to dust, lovers to friends, why do all good things come to an end?
in the darkness of it all, i know that i'll never ever forget us. the 29th. and as i'm typing this entry, the tears are stinging my eyes, for i know that every drop of tear that falls marks the amount of longing i have for council. i dont know about the rest of us here and now, but when that day comes, i'll let it go with a peaceful heart. i hope.
till then,
i miss council. 29th rocks.

i feel screwed. "you either make it or you die." so after all that we've learnt, it comes down to a do or die situation. life is such an irony.i need my 5pm naps. else i bite. really. lucky for me, yvonne woke me up when we were reaching our stop just now. my alarm didnt work that well after all. roar.
i must study smart. "i will be smart. i will try real hard." god give me the strength to carry on. i've been such a passive creature after all these years of my life. what a tragedy.
tomorrow's council camp. i want to stand up to be who i really am. to go against the tides, prove everyone else wrong. its not the first time i've stumbled. all of the sudden i feel numbed towards everything.
someone, slap me quick.

roar. the computer's getting cranky on me again.i learn my lessons the hard way, all my life, the cycle repeats itself. i make a mistake, i refuse to admit it, blindly going forward, until WHAM! i hit the walls again. which is like some dumb ass trying to ram himself into the glass walls. rahh. my mom says, you never learn things the right way do you? i think, there's no such thing as the RIGHT way in life.
what do YOU think?
