sam's a stressed student with a throbbing headache. so whats new?
it's one of those throbbing headache's.
that makes me feel like i've got a fever.
that makes me feel like crying.
that makes me feel awfully stressed.
and my mind seems to mutilply my current state of stress by like 100.
I'd like to think it's the weather.
school was alright.
rained practically the WHOLE day.
yea. i hate cold weather.
it's so rainy.
it gives this whole aura of dismality (if there's sucha word) and it's seems so sordid.
it's like.
imagine a homeless little girl lost in the streets and it starts raining.
and she gets drenched.
that's how rain seems to me.
it reminds me of Annie.
when you're stuck with a day, that's gray and lonely.
i just stick up my chin, and grin and say oh,
the sun'll come out, tmr.
so you gotta hang on till tmr.
yea, so it's pretty much like that for me.
i was always more of a sunny person.
it's not called sunny disposition for nothing.
sunlight always seems so much happier and more cheery!
i mean, there isnt sucha thing as a rainy disposition.
double standards.
yea.
there's cca day tmr.
i hope recruitment will turn out well.
i mean, who doesnt?
i hope it gets sunny.
rainy days just turn my mood down by half.
or wait, more tha half.
rainy days are the days that i cry the most easily.
dont know.
it's just me?
maybe cos you're busy now dear.
if i read The Dreamwalker's Child now, i'd prolly cry.
it's the first and only book i've ever cried whilst reading.
it's when this young girl realises she's the cause of her whole family's deaths cos of her innocence.
it's really sad.
she was playing on a frozen lake, chasing a blue butterfly. and the ice was too thin in the middle.
and yeah.
it cracked whilst her parents were trying to save her.
and how her teacher in this other dimnesion tells her--
Just because something changes, it doesnt mean that it is lost. Like melting snow, it simply becomes something else. Love cannot be destroyed. The things that matter will stay with you always.
yea.
i'm so tired.
i hate the weather.
it gives this whole aura of dismality (if there's sucha word) and it's seems so sordid.
it's like.
imagine a homeless little girl lost in the streets and it starts raining.
and she gets drenched.
that's how rain seems to me.
it's like no one's there.

pledge wasnt half bad.
miss teo and mrs matthew's were rather encouraging.
(:
geog was FUNNY.
HEEHEE.

and art was best.
went through the themes.
I'm pretty sure i'm gonna do Unusual Perspectives, which i chose over At Play which was the other theme that i didnt rule out.
yeah.
i'm not gonna blog bout my concept just yet, though if you wanna know, HAHA, ask me or smth.
Gifts comm for the invest finished painting all 25 pieces.
OMG.
so happy.
they look AWESOME.
cant believe we managed to finish the paint and glitter on all 25 in like 4+ hours.
so AWESOME.
and i'm a happy girl.
cos i've finally found my direction with regards to the O level AEP themes -grins.
happy happy.
Now i just need the visual rep.
and artist influence.
i already figured that out. soooo.
i'll be in the art studio during my two free chem periods tmr.
kinda cant wait to get started.
though i flipped when i found out we have to get half of our eight prep boards due by MARCH.
yes, that's less than two months.
ah.
JIA YOU.
and i kinda realised i only have Obssesive Compulsive Disorder (OCD; like when you arrange all the stationery in your pencilcase in the same direction -HEH, like MAGDALENE LIM) for ART.
haha, it's like.
i cannot stand using rolled up art block,
crumpled art paper- even if it's just the corners,
art paper with black finger prints
and WORST OF ALL if it's folded.
and i cant stand seeing the pencil marks even after i've erased smth.
yeah, i'm randomly weird.I'm Samantha Branson (:
and i guess i'm a whole unusual perspective myself.
HO HO HO.
one of my sec one juniors from my DEAR DARLING psl class 1/6 just messaged me and she's like--
So how's your love life??everyone in 1/6 is talking bout it.....lol....haha :D

SCHOOOOOOOOL.we finally got the art themes!
they're quite alright, though i find it ironic that miss low tells us that the teachers are sick of seeing the cliche flowers and butterfly skecthes and a the theme- Flora and Fauna pops up.
The themes given are rather directed. and rather developed.
havent decided what i'm gonna do.
i'm already stressing over the fact that the VAT is due in March.
The add math test.
haha, shant talk bout it since some ppl havent taken it yet.
i'm on pledge duty for the next three days..
rain sounds good to me now.
HAHA.
haha, just a note--
i'm very much single.
LOL.
english lessons are gonna be good.
we're doing descriptive essays now.
which as far as i'm concerned is my strength when it comes to essays.
yeah.
AHHH.
i was freaked before the add maths test.
HO YEAAAAH.
yup.
it's stuck in my head! AH SHUCKS.
it's a lovely song.
where are we?
what the hell is going on?
the dust has only just begun to form
crop circles in the carpet
sinking, feeling
spin me 'round again
and rub my eyes,
this can't be happening
when busy streets a mess with people
would stop to hold their heads heavy
hide and seek
trains and sewing machines
all those years
they were here first
oily marks appear on walls
where pleasure moments hung before the takeover,
the sweeping insensitivity of this still life
hide and seek
trains and sewing machines (you won't catch me around here)
blood and tears
they were here first
Mmmm what d'ya say,
Mmmm that you only meant well?
well of course you did
Mmmm what d'ya say,
Mmmm that's all for the best?
of course it is
Mmmm what d'ya say?
Mmmm that it's just what we need
you decided this
Mmmm what d'ya say?
Mmmm what did she say?
ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
midsweet talk, newspaper word cut outs
speak no feeling
no I don't believe you
you don't care a bit,
you don't care a bit
(hide and seek)

I'm asking myself the same question again.
Could I ever ?
your song; it's getting to me.and that's just how it is.
it's like.
you want to throw smth away,
and yet you can't.
and that feeling's awful.
cos it makes you feel like some schizo.
confusing.
AH, WTH.

I'm fine.no, really.the sweeping insensitivity of this still life.

reflective post coming up.
the past few days have been oh-so-tiring but very rewarding.
sec one orientation went very well, in my opinion.
it was really great.
really.
seeing sec one six blossom from quiet shy sec ones to enthusiastic class-ij-spirit filled youth made me feel so happy.
i figured it's cos i played a part in influencing the change.
and nothing else can cut close to the sense of achievement.
after the games, telematch the councillors cleaned up the whole basketball court.
it was then.
when everyone was scrubbing, splashing, carrying heavy bucket fulls of water.
using small pieces of sponge to rub off masses of flour whilst kneeling.tired looks swept every face, and yet, no voices sounded complain.it was then that i really understood the meaning of Servant Leadership.tolerance contributed a whole lot.it reminded me of obs.when mad and i did the capsize drills, we were hence delayed and far far far away from the rest of the kayaking fleet.the wind was against us.we were so tired.we were so exhausted.but something just kept driving us on.i cried whilst kayaking.tears just streamed.i was trying so hard.and we didnt seem to be making any progress.it really seemed as though the waves, the sea was testing us.testing our perseverance.testing to see when we'd cave in.but we didnt.i was crying.i wanted to give up.i cant do it.i cant.i'm so tired.i'm cying.mad! cant you see we're not moving! paddle!that's what i told myself.it was just so hard.i cried beacause i was trying so hard.and yet, couldnt succeed.we kayaked for half an hour against the wind.half an hour of crying.crying and convincing myself, NO. Samantha, dont say you cant do it.you can.i was saying i couldnt do it.yet trying to mentally convince myself that i could.it was an experience i will never forget.i pushed myself.so much.when we finally reached the fleet.i cried even more.because mad and i managed to do it.no number of words can really fully describe how i felt while kayaking.i'll remember the tears that's all i can say.cos they taught me perseverance.and when i was scrubbing the floor with the long brushing thing,i felt that again.that kayaking thing.and this time.i didnt cry.cos i knew i had the strength to do it.the strength to get through it.and hey, i did.it wasnt some hard task or anything, and i prolly sound silly typing this.but i was just tired. and pmsing.YEAH.and seeing a clean basketball court.was exactly like catching up with the fleet.servant leadership cant be learnt from a textbook.it's experienced.and cleaning up after the games, made me realise.it's not about expecting people to respect you or thinking 'nvm la, someone ELSE will do it'.it's about gaining that respect yourself.by example.it's cos when you've gained it, that you'll realise you've succeeded.no one else is going to make the change that you want to see or take credit for.you've got to do that yourself.you've got to do it yourself.respect is earned.not granted or given.and you've got to earn it yourself.mhmmm.that's what the sec one orientation helped me realise.and servant leadership.it's leading by example.at the end of the day, you learn something from what you've gone through.Storms make trees take deeper roots.
