CATCH THE HINTS.

290607

i'm baaaack !
we've finally fixed the internet connection with a new modem.
and frankly. i couldn't be happier.

here's when the keburukan internet comes in, heh.

anyways, i cant possibly type bout all that has happened to me since i last updated, that was a damn long time ago.
i'll just stick to highlights (:
(oh oh, i've divided this post into sections. so yeah (: look out for headings! -they're underlined)

on second thoughts. i'm too lazy too lazy to look back.
oh wait, jared's party!
went there, got lost.
ended up in ubi avenue industrial estate.
took us a few construction material shops to realise that we were on the wrong bus. teehee.
tracked back, and found jared's house.
took us bout twenty mins (:

when we reached his block, he was watching us from outside his maisonette.
HAHAHA, OMG.

reached, ate for awhile then headed up to jared's room.
debbie was there (:
thea brought us girls to her room where we played the frog game (:
se's really cute (:
wanted to go back to jared's room, but thea kept dragging me (:
SO CUTE.

yea (:
left after dinner, and cabbed back to bishan mmhmm (:
was sleepy !
yeaaa (:

I'll start with the new week (:
i stayed back EVERY single daaaaay.

amazing, no?

managed to paint the inside of my space blueeeee.
so there's the clouds left, pillows left- lots of pillows, and the whole outside space.
SHUCKS.
talk about having a lot to do.

anyways, mrs alex gave us our june test compre back-- turns out it was the sji mye 07 paper.
WHOAH.

it got a lot of rather stunned expressions from the class in general.
it just wowed me.
our mye paper for eng was like, a major killer la.
sheesh.

moving on, my o level malay oral exam is overrrrr !
i got COURTESY.
then they asked me what courtesy means,
whether i think singaporeans are courteous
and whether it'd be better if an individual was courteous or good-looking.

it was quite manageable.
the examiners were really happy happy and smiley.
which helped the nervouseness cool down, even though i was still wondering what colour the butterflies in my stomach were.

"If you havent dont any of your homework, it's alright. Just start
studying."


the first three days of the week were fab (:
no need to guess why (((: hahaha.

other than that, the start of semester 2 and term 3 was good.
been studying every night.
hopefully it pays off !

we've started Industries for geog.
it's a rather dry chapter to me.
my friends were giving each other the omg-i'm-gonna-fall-asleep look.
and half the time our class doesnt fall asleep cos of the noise!
haha, NOISE.
the noise generated in our class during lessons is amazing.
it might not be comparable, but whoahhh.
-looks at miss chilli padi.
-turns beihnd the aisle and looks at the second two pairs of desks.
HAHA, whoaaaaah.

partnering sarah, and having Rose next to me on the left, and jess two seats away has been fun (:
Here's a breakdown of class boredom

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
A represents the time spent talking to each other.
B represents the time spent drawing in each others school diaries, writing random song lyrics and sticking retarded post its all over.
and C is the time we spend preparing for the next lesson. this includes, hw touching up (HAHA, TOUCHING UP), getting books from our locker etc.

yea, roughly la, and not thoroughly accurate.
it's not like i count the time every day for an entire week, then average it. put it over the amount of class time and mulitiply it by a hundred to get the percentage.
i'm not that free.

i'm typing this before tmr, in advance, so i can just copy paste the whole thing.
yeayea. i'm deprived and kiasu.

i've got Runaway by the Corrs and the Cranberries. in my heaaaaad.
it's sucha nice old song.

say it's true, there's nothing like me and you.
i'm not alone..
tell me you feel it too.

and i would runaway.
i would runaway, yeah yeah.
i would runaway,
i would runaway with you.

cos i've fallen in looooove with you.
no, i'm never, never gonna stop falling in love with you.


another song i really like from my dad's music list is COME AWAY WITH ME !
i really like that song yup !

oh oh oh.
a whole new world's playing (:
AW.

now i'm in a whole new world with you

SHINY BLACK HEELS

YOUTH DAY CELEBRATIONS TODAY !

we had the CAT HIGH chinese orchestra and wushu guys perform.
so random !
haha.

the teachers dedicated Trust his heart to us.
which was sweet.

we got a pretty bookmark from the school, and a really cute magnetic apple shaped paperclip holder.
so cute la.
and really thoughtful.

the cheerleaders performed too.

then we had an hour long recess.
it was crazy though, cos all four levels was down in the canteen at the same time.
the stall queues are already as long as HALF THE CANTEEN when it's my usual recess !
and that's only two levels.
can you imagine, the whole school
not to mention the noise level!
and heat !

stayed up for recess with sarah, jess, amanda, su !
had retarded convos.
HAIYOOOO.

started a convo bout the girls in bikinis who do car washes, cos i took out my car wash sponge which i'm gonna use to..
PAINT CLOUDS LA.

TSK JESSICAAAAA.
haha.

we then moved on to the usual school diary drawing!
haha.
pretty soon it was time for english!
expository essay for homework!

chem, for me was spent painting.
after that, headed to comp lab 4 for hist.
i had a major headache.
i think from inhaling the paint smell.
but yeahhh.

stayed in the council room cos i felt awful..
but not before leaving to get SMOOTHIEEEE!
strawberry banana. MMMMMMMM.

Dont wake me up from my fairytale dream.

i'm listening to all the the songs from my daddy's file!
hmm,here're a few random phrases (: see if you know the songs (:

1. We've only just begun, to live. White lace and promises.
2. I could stay awake just to hear you breathing, watch you smile while you're sleeping ... Cos even when i dream of you, the sweetest dream would never do- I'd still miss you babe.
3. And too many moonlight kisses, seem to cool in the warmth of the sun.
4. I hear the laughter, i taste the tears. but i cant get near you now.
5. I knew i loved you before i met you, I think i dreamed you into life.
6. I wanna wake up with the rain falling on the tin roof, while i'm safe back in your arms, so all i ask is for you, to some away with me, in the night.
7. Every place i go, i'll think of you, every song i sing, i'll sing for you. when i come back, i'll wear your wedding ring.

old songs somehow seem more meaningful.

Maybe it's intuition, some things you just dont question.
Look in your I see my future in an instant and there it goes,
i think i found my bestfriend.


anyways, after amanda was done with her oral, and su anne was with her prac, the whole original clique headed to Subway for lunch (((:
we talked about the youth day concert.
HAHAHAHA.
you dont wanna know..

there's harry potter one, part two later.
i'm prolly gonna slack tonight, heh.
I've been so dried out.
Like a wet towel, wrung till it's dry.
and still left in the sun.
YEAAAAA.

WAH, this post is loooong !
and ah !
JONATHAN RHYS MEYERS IS HOT.

majorly la.

haha, HOT.
reminds me of assembly this morning !
tsk, jess accredited the heat i was feeling to her HOTNESS.
haha.


:D

oh, i know this post is getting jumpy and messy and so not sequential, but sorry !

mass today was good.
it was very meaningful to hear mrs lee and mrs matthews read during the mass.
heir participation was very dont know how to say la.
but it kinda gave me a new found respect for mrs lee.
(i cant really explain why..)
Mrs Lee, btw had a pair of gorgeous black super high shiny kitten-heel pumps.
amanda and i were WOW-ing.
DAMN NICE LA.

i'm reintroducing randomness to this blog !

i think pink umbrellas on a dull rainy day are really bright and funny !
teehee.


ugh, i needa lose tummy fat.
and do more crunches, yay.


I SPELL LOVE A DIFFERENT WAY.


-sighs dreamily.

i'll end here and leave you readers wondering, or not.

we'll end our fairytale by writing a book one day faraway from now.
all our book needs is two words.

(((:
<333>i could stay lost in this moment forever.
every moment spent with you, is a moment i treasure.

World Environment Day

caught Spidey again with mike ytd, haha, we caught it in this 4k digital thing, and it was omg damn clear.
haha, we had to catch it not in the normal cinema, cos yes yes, i didnt buy the tickets when i first got there at 12 +-pm
LOL.

I cried again!

aaaand, before meeting mike, i went to check out the top i want from Forever21 ((((:
the outlet there's so nice and big and empty !
i like.

went to try on the top and this other one which i quite liked (:
they're both quite alike in terms of design.

-ones got dark army green and white stripes, with random white hearts in between the stripes. It's a tank top, and the straps are pink !
in the middle there're three small pink heart buttons (((: pale army green, bright pink and white go well (:

-the second one is likewise, striped.
it's got black and white striped though. and instead of the pink outline on the top of the top as in the other one, it's TEAL (:
which happens to be close to turquoise, which is, as the avid reader of this blog would know, my favourite colour !
instead of hearts in between the stripes, there're stars ! the cutting is also different, it's looser and it flairs out (:
kinda like a maternity top, but thinner la duh. the bottom bit is flaired as well, quite pretty.

sean's gonna help me pick yea (((:
they're both nice!
i can wear S for both, but the XS fits better for the first top, and they didnt have XS for the first top.

(:

i'm amidst my reflection now though.
will continue this in awhile, time's 10.38 (:


OOH, it's 11.38 now (:
and i'm done !
(:

gotta head to school for art soon !

will update soon !

meanwhile, yesterday was world environment day!
here're a few suggestions on what you can get in touch with the environmentalist in you (:

#1
Use fewer sheets of toilet paper !
three is consider fewer btw.

#2
If you happen to spill a teeny drop of soup on your nice leather wallet, tone down the inner bimbo in you and leave it there to evaporate.
if you really cant take it, er, dont waste a piece of tissue on that tiny drop !
use your finger of smth?

#3
Four letters !
BYOB!

for those who dont know, bring your own bag !

#4
Small things make a big difference!
turning the shower off when you're soaping youself, cutting down on how much television you watch,
and even turning the air-con on at a higher temperature helps !


POLAR BEARS are dying in the Arctic due to Global Warming !
with more ice caps melting, polar bears dont have enough energy to swim to the next ice cap.
and so they drown.

it's really sad.

and what's sadder, is we played a part in it !

cutting down on our use of natural resources is really gonna help.
it might not feel like you're making a difference,
but if every body plays a part,
it'll make a big difference !

let's not leave the changing to those in the green club for hardcore environmentalists or those in big organisations like ACRES.
If we, as individuals, push our responsiblities aside, nothing's gonna get done.
Can you imagine if God decided to let someone else create the horse, or any animal for that matter.
imagine it's YOUR FAVOURITE ANIMAL.

there's no one else who can create such an animal !
SHUCKS !

I wouldnt want to imagine a world without horses.

so hey hey !
let's do our part, and reduce the rate at which global warming occurs.

There's a little girl in the world who wouldnt want to imagine a world without polar bears.

little miss sunshine.

(come to think of it, i dont know why i'm making this orange, cos i told ian that sunshine is generally colourless! i mean, it is whaaaat ! if not everything we see will be like orange-y! and that's seriously gonna screw up alot of colours.- imagine orange on a green wall, EW !)

because my neck is dying and i dont wanna be a complain queen to anyone specific, i'm gonna whine here.

i havent complained online in sucha long time, i almost miss it, heh.
OKAY.
not really laaaa.

i shouldnt be complaining.
so instead, i'm gonna blog.

i'm happy, but tiredddd ! aha, and i've still got work to do !
MAN.


caught Pirates on fridayyyyy (:
first movie together (:

it was kinda boring!
a lot of fighting, and you know me, i'm really not a big fan of fighting,
well, i'm actually not a fan of fighting at all, HEH.

there weren't any emotionally strong parts in the show, soooo
i didnt cry!
HAHA, quite a few people found it pretty amazing, namely, my dad.
but yea, i didnt !
there like wasnt anything really sad, i mean none of the good guys died, or suffered any major loss or anything, so yeaaa (:

studied at the library last weekend with sean, mich and julian.
butt ache !
cos we were sitting on the floor.
sean and i couldnt find any chinese books for me to read, awwwww.

did hw, then had lunch (:
oreo milkshake (:

mass, dinner, bused home.


(:

went shopping ytd ! and on the second day of the GSS.
OMGGGG, finally !
smth i can blog about non-stop !
SHOPPING !
yes yes !
with a capital S (:

headed to Wisma Atria (:
FOREVER21 ! the variety there can so NOT beat the vivo outlet, in terms of size and all, but hey, i can shop anywhere (:

FIVE reasons why Samantha needs to start saving !

1. interlinked rainbow hearts bracelet ! $14
2.Striped dark army green and white with random hearts tank top!
(with pink straps!) $28
3. Shiny black peep-toe flats ! $39
4. Rubbery lilac pumps! from NOVO $50
(mummy said they look nice on me! )
5.Cleaaaaaar bangle with glitter ! $11

HOOO YEAH (:

sean, shirin, amanda and i caught TJC's Drama Production- A Midsummer Nights' Dream on the 25th of May
.
the acting was pretty convincing.
and i found the fight scene very well enacted.

the set was impressive !
it was so magical and pretty and nice !
it was AMAZING (:

shared a caramel frap (:

28th May !
-Malay O levels were alright.
My paper one questions were same as the chinese ones.
:O
Alice is the only known person, other than me who did questions 1 & 4 !
yup.

anyways, on a general note, my holidays are SO tied down.
From going back to school for classes during the first two weeks, to going back to school for art from mon to thurs of the last two weeks, YEA, tied down is appropriate.

If being busy was a sickness, gosh i ought to be dead.

with that said, there's no way i'm gonna miss shopping !
or catching up with peeps i only get to see like, once in awhile!

and once in awhile is an understatement man !


i think writing your own testimonial feels funny.
it's like telling yourself what you are, and making reasons for why you're like that.

well, me ?
s for samantha,
s for simple.
seeing others happy,
makes me happy.
and that's what i enjoy most.


though i have to admit, that's not always the easiest thing.

so i'm sick !
and hence, staying homeeee.

i think i've been over-singing.
HAHA, if there's even sucha thing.

the doctor said i've got an overly sensitive nose--
that explains why i keep sneezing.
i sneezed 8 times in a row.
a record.

HAHA.

i've got pink medicine.
which looks like lovely raspberry cordial.
but tastes nothing like it.
it's so gross tasting.

heh,
I've got How to touch a girl stuck in my head

Do you know how to touch a girl?
if you want me so much, first i have to know.
are you thoughful and kind?
do you care what's on my mind?
or am i just for show?

you'll go far in this world if you know how to touch a girl.


haha, it's a lovelyyyy song.
and lovely seems to be the word of the day.
HAHA.

i'm totally bored.
ah, MYEs are coming :/
which i'm totally dreading.

'O' levels are getting nearer too.
and i dont feel ready at all.

i've lost the motivation to study i realised.

i used to study so hard.
and do so well.
and when my grades fell in sec 3.
i didnt pick them up.
i think i told myself i couldnt do it, too many times.
that it's already gotten to me.

as much as i want to do better.
in Add maths, or physics, it's like, I CANT.

SECOND May !

i know, i know, i've been MIA !
haha, i've been typing out my posts on notepad, and i figured i'll only get to post them way later, which is gonna make my posts really old and outdated,
but oh wells?

i'll live !
anyways (:
-SMILES.

life's been well.
let me try and use an anecdote.

on second thoughts.
i'll stick to typing it out straight.
heh.

the stars have already been named, so fate couldn't just be a game.

i've been happy (:
never been happier basically.

I'm so happy.
You've made everyday a new best day of my life.
It's smth i just realised.

I'm happier, why?
questions and questions.
only one answer.
you (:

somehow days seem brighter.
smiles, wider.
everyone says i'm noticeabky cheerier.
who knew?

how life contradicts.
I've learnt;
my heart's stringer than i thought.

I've never been so happy,
there's really nothing better i can think of.

you've painted a rainbow in my heart
& it's staying.
cos i'm very happy now, are you ? (:


There's a Singaporean poet, Vivienne Yeo, who wrote a book, and came to read a few poems during assembly sometime last year.
they quite appeal to me.
have a read.

this one's titled Sheer Love.

Sheer Love is uber
Like a sublime stupor-
Kissed by consistent passion,
Sparking infinite possibilties.

It drives the soul
Towards a goal;
And stiffens one's resolve
No matter what the odds.

What a love that surges forth
From waters of turbulent froth,
Emerging triumphant
No matter the odds.

Sheer love conquers the impossible,
making all else possible'
sustaining a noble fire,
That keeps life resiliently aglow.

how unseen, yet seen.
so invisible, yet visible.


(:

anyways, life's been, well, happy.
i know, i'm suffering from a major lack of vocabulary, but ah, happiness seems to define my life pretty well.
i'm reaaaaally looking forward to the june hols.
eventhough i'm gonna be going head on for coursework intensive, i'll be able to hang out (:
which i have so been deprived of (:

the Forever21 Sale starts on the 25th of MAY!
coming coming.

we'll go shopping alrights (:

and i swear it'll be great.

Samantha Ann Michaela Branson is a happy girl.
She has been, and will be (:

heyhey, i'll be counting down.
ten years and a day.

that's all i'll ever need.

THIS POST IS FROM LONG LONG AGOOOO !
CHECK IT OUT (((:

ij-sji combined camp.

this post is going to be brief.

wholly, camp was better than i had expected.
my group mates in Jia Ting were fun and participative.
we learnt the warpath cheer.
it was scary at first.
aha.

dragon boating was fun.
go bimbos !

we formed the SBS, Smart Bimbo Society.
lol.

the visit to the hospital was rewarding in ways.

the i-realities was quite, err?
first thing that came to my mind when we were challenged to be different was,
there's a difference between defiance and being different.
and i felt that the difference, wasnt highlighted, or even recognised.
i felt that it was made to seem as though defiance and being different were equated.
to a certain extent.

the reflection, was good.
but i felt that there was insufficient time, the second time, when we were nearing the end of the camp.

talentime was alright.
though i could see any apparent link to the theme,
Leading today, changing tomorrow.

the photos were fun.

the guys really put in a lot of effort into warm fuzzies,
and that was touching, for me.

val can play Way Back Into Love on the piano (:
spent quite a bit of time together singing at the piano while she played.

I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on

I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need em again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere
I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration. Not just another negotiation

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end


yea.
games on day one were good.

generally, i guess i found camp alright,
because i was able to push aside and ignore certain prejudices, in a sense.
and in doing so, was able to focus more on learning, and gaining something from camp, whilst still having fun.

i almost erupted at some point, but hey, that's when my friends came in.
Thanks.

the warm fuzzies were really, affirming.

well, my voice is pretty much dead now.
yea.

ij left, ij right.
ij centre, ij fight.

p.s. you're gonna see this post a lot later, cos my connection died.
OH FISH.
e learning's coming.
SHUCKS.

sprinkled in glitter.
