One minute and the world begins to shake

Listening to : Gallery - Mario Vazquez

I don't know,I think he's some American Idol alum.
Hm.
Happy Halloween!

I finished painting my room.
Everything has been put to its original position.
Its vacummed.
To say that I'm happy is a huge understatement.

My Ipod played 82 song over the whole
paint-wall-put-furniture-back-vacumm course.
I have 498 songs in my Ipod.
That is about one-fifth of my whole collection played.
Raise your hand up if you,like me,have 538 songs in your iTunes,
half of which is played very rarely.
No,don't raise your hand up literally!

Ah.You know what?
I'm going to Youtube in search of more All Time Low songs now.
And I'll get my daily dose of Zachary Steven Merrick while I'm at it!

Caught up in a moment,but not in the right way

Listening to : Dear Maria (Count Me In) - All Time Low

The Dear Maria video is my favourite All Time Low music video,I think.
You get to see a lot of Zachary Steven Merrick.
Close-up shots,too.

I'm so sorry to be saying this,but...
OH MY GOSH.
Hahaha.
I just saw pictures of Jeremy Heng in secondary school.
That's all I have to say.
It made me crack up.
(No offense,Jeremy.
I don't think you'll see this anyway.
If its any comfort -which I doubt it is-,
you're still one of my favourite altar servers!)
Hahaha.
How's that for a good night's sleep?
The pictures ah...

Lucky Thirteen/Oh Bill

Listening to : P.S. I Love You - The All American Rejects

Despite my old phobia of the colour green,
I've painted my room green.
Since I'm a novice at this,
I've got green paint splattered
all over my arms.
Or maybe its not my fault.
But anyway,
the paint likes to splatter.
I woke up with a headache.
I remember falling asleep in my dream.
I'll like to think that it was my brain saying
'Abigail,can you stop thinking and get some proper sleep!?'
But anyway.

I watched All Time Low videos with my mum.
She went,"Their language!Are you sure you should be watching this?"
No mum,I'm not sure I should.But they make me laugh!
Especially Zachary Steven Merrick.I love bassists.
Since Renyi complained,I made the text bigger.
It looks scary,Renyi.

Too tall,too short-everything in between

Listening to : Shameless - All Time Low

If I ever had a reason to hate tall people,it would be because they are well,tall.
Really,its very very irritating when something like this happens :

Aged 9,going to catechism class.
*Looks at the people in class*
Thinks to self : Wow...all the guys are really short.Huh...hahaha.Good for me then.

Aged 13,going to catechism class.
*Looks at the people in class*
Thinks to self : Damnit,why do I feel so short?Nevermind,*insert name of a guy that used to be a lot shorter than you*should still be shorter.
*Looks at _____*
Thinks to self : When did he get so tall!?I swear,he's wearing heels!
Denial,denial.

I'm going to add 'taking train with Legion people' and 'playing cards with Mark,Celine and Roy' to my list of hobbies.
Trains are the funnest form of public transport.
Except when the train suddenly jerks and you accidentally step on the guy behind you's toes.
Then you can feel him glaring at you from behind.

At least playing cards with Mark,Celine and Roy is more...funny.
Cos even though Mark is some RI guy,he managed to miscalculate three time in a row.
Plus 2-Minus 2 is a hard game.
And even though I've never heard him swear,he went 'SHIT!'
We all laughed,mainly cos it was hilarious and we had a closer chance of winning.
He's another tall person.
So's Celine.
Damned genes lah.
It should not be genetically possible to grow that tall.
They-whoever 'they' is- should make it illegal.
Yes,Shermaine?

People who listen to really hardcore punk/metal/rock/metal(I know I already said this)
and take breathtaking (overrated word,but true) pictures are scary.
In the coolest way.
And they manage to look 3 years younger.
Compared to them,I'll look like...I don't even want to know man.

So.My Ipod just hanged-hung-hung-ed on me.
Traitor.

You can shut up anytime now,you know.

Listening to : Gives You Hell - The All American Rejects

I hate holidays.
Seriously.
Gosh.
Please give me 5 litres of paint.
So I can paint my room.
And keep myself occupied before I faint from boredom.
I wonder how it feels to faint.
Must be fascinating.
How many people go to a concert 5 hours earlier.
Not me.
Unless its some cool band.
Like Simple Plan.All Time Low.Cobra Starship.
Oh yay.

I just recounted.
I actually have 7 camps this year.
Yay!
And Deborah is gonna be a facil for confi 1 camp again.
Triple-double yay man.
Jonathan Macpherson is cool.
He read the Neil Humphrey book.
The same one I wanted to buy,but couldn't.
And he said it was funny.
And he has the whole series.
I'm jealous.
Tsk.St Patrick guy.
I could borrow it,though.
I'm his cousin's best catechism friend.
He's got obligations.
(Yeah,right)
If there's one guilty pleasure I don't feel any guilt about,
its eating four pieces of bread with Philadelphia Cream Cheese in a day.
So goodbye,I'm gonna eat my fourth now.

Just because
You're a fan
Doesn't mean
You've joined the band

Plasters - lotsa them

Listening to : World Spins Madly On - The Weepies

Really cool folk-pop/indie band.
Thank you Janine,you have cool music taste.

If you ever,I don't know....decide that you want to dress as a hippie for Be Yourself Day,
choose Chucks over sandals.
Or at least the sandals I chose to wear today.
If you don't ever read my post titles,read this one and you'll see why.
It hurts like crap.
No wonder everyone -except hardcore dressers- puts comfort over style.
Basically - Chucks beats everything else.
Oh,except for black pumps.
Those look pretty comfortable and undeniably nice.

I don't have pictures of today.
But judging from the looks I got while walking to school,I looked quite the part.
(I swear,I don't smoke weed or pot though.I don't even know why people smoke.)
Gosh,ya'll never seen a hippie before.
Okay,probably not.

Just in case,Chucks are actually just Converse.
Some American nickname,I think.
But saying Chucks is so much fun!

According to real hippies,I'm defined a 'materialistic spoilt child'.
Peace,brother.

All the wrong reasons

Listening to : I Know - Drake Bell

Because some people are only funny on-screen with no other talent,
but Drake Bell is so cool and funny.The awesome singing/songwriting is such a bonus.
If only they sold his album here.

I remember saying,back in March :
"I hate Geography.I don't freaking care if Joel is lost in the jungle and needs to find his way back."
Uh,that was when we were still stuck on Mapwork.
And,uh yeah,the question was really to help Joel find his way out.
I'm so sorry,Joel.
Unless you're my cousin or church friend-
I still don't care.
I'll much rather learn how a meander is formed.Or something.

No Really,I'm Fine

Listening to : Everlong - Foo Fighters

I'm back from Malacca!
Saturday started off well.
Hot N Cold was playing on the radio when I woke up.
I started dancing.
15 minutes later,Don't Stop Moving played.
Danced again,naturally.
Long long bus trip,but we (finally) arrived.

Saturday ended off badly.
Frickin' camera got stolen.
Couldn't watch the Man Utd-West Brom match cos it wasn't being shown on ESPN.
I didn't notice anything bad though,I was too sleepy.
But the food was really good man.

It sucks when...one of your best friends are top in the level.
It sucks when...one of your other best friends are most likely second in the level.
It'll doubly suck when...they transfer to "better" schools.

Camp Corri,Confi 1 camp,Student leader camp,Confi 1 camp,JXY.
Yeah,that's a lotta camps in a year.

You talk like you're famous

Listening to : That's What You Get - Paramore

While walking-
'Milk!Milk!Don't step on the Melamine!'
Hahahahaha

After going to Shermaine's blog and seeing the St Jude post,I decided to go look for saint names.
To choose for confirmation,that is.
Yeah,I do realise that its about 3 years ago.
I don't think I should choose an A name.
Actually,any alphabet would look weird with my current initials.
Huh.
But anyway.

I think Micheal Cera should be like,my new favourite actor.
He's in Juno and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.
He's adorably awkward.
He...likes Ellen Page cos she wears T-shirts?

Hello,Internet!

Listening to : There's A Class For This - Cute is What We Aim For

SAT question :
Please answer the following question with the best possible sentence.

If Abigail were to migrate to America,it would be because :

a) It could be summer and you could still wear a hoodie out jogging.
b) She loves hoodies.

g) She wishes to have a bigger chance of running into Matt Ballinger.
h) She would like to catch All Time Low in concert.
i) Taking SATs sound way less scary than all other exams in Singapore.
j) All of the above.

Can you keep a secret?

Listening to : Can You Keep A Secret? - The Cab

I swear-
Reading through your past MSN conversations can be super fun.
Be careful though,your random outburst of "HAHA,ohmygosh!" might scare people.
I've read four books over the course of two days.
Does that signify my boredom enough?
I miss history lessons.
I miss drama lessons.
I miss the school's cafe.
I MISS SCHOOL.

I like capitalizing randomly.
I've realised I haven't posted something long for awhile.
Ooh,I'm leaving for Malacca next week.
I've already planned who to buy presents for.
I like making lists.
Its not such a felony.
If I go to poly,I wonder if I'll still be able to get into University.
I mean,why spend two years in JC when I more or less know what course I want?
Huh.
I'll go ask people.
People as a word seems so vague.
Suddenly,I miss Philippines.
An image of Julianne's house just appeared in my mind.
What with her beautiful ixora.

I wonder what my chances of having A.D.D are?
Slim to none,I hope.

From the screen to the stereo

Listening to : All of Your Love - Hello Goodbye

Its lasted about nine days,but now I can finally say 'MY EXAMS ARE ALMOST OVER!'.
I can scream and shout about it too,but I'll try acting civilised.
(Editor's note : Hahaha,I just love the editor's notes popping up everywhere.Anyway,notice the words 'try acting'.Means not guaranteed.)
I'd like to go jogging on such a cool,almost-about-to-rain day.
I'd like to...eat a whole pint of Chocolate ice-cream.
I'd like to...pass science.
Better yet,throw in an A.
OH.I have a good one.
I'll like to find a confirmation name that goes with my current name.

All that goes away would sometimes stay.
(No,it wasn't meant to make sense)
I'd like to watch The House Bunny too!

don't let go tonight

Listening to : A Little Less Sixteen Candles,A Little More Touch Me

So,I have the following :
Agoraphobia
Emetophobia
Kenophobia (Somewhat,if the space is really huge)
Nyctophobia (Depends,if its in an unfamiliar place then heck yes)
Ornithophobia

Huh,happy living to me.
There is a real condition for fear of the day Friday the thirteenth.

Rain rain,never go away

Listening to : You and Me - Lifehouse


The Girl Next Door.One of the best movies.Ever.

My cousin listens to *insert gasp here*Chinese songs!
I keep finding myself daydreaming about Confi 1 camp.
Hey,its a good thing.

Oh,history...

Listening to : All Again For You - We The Kings

I don't care how lame I sound,
I LOVE MY CATECHISM CLASS!
And my teachers.
And the facilitators.
And I'm sorry,Fran,cos I forgot to bring the consent form today.
Again.
And anyway,our class is so cool we outcool Antartica.
Damn global warming.

Studying history used to be more fun.
Happy Birthday to whoever it concerns!

take a sad song and make it better

Listening to : Hey Jude - The Beatles

I've got approximately an hour till the Man Utd vs Blackburn game starts.
AH.
Reading Sweetheart makes me cry,and I hate crying over books or movies.
Actually,I hate crying over anything.
Luckily for me,Hey Jude is a very soothing song.
55 more minutes!
I'll go see who's online.

Happy birthday to Francesca!

Messing up,Picking parts,falling down,breaking hearts

Listening to : Cry Me A River - Justin Timberlake

No,I did not mess up anything.
I hope.
Yes,I did have to pick up lots of things.
This is what happens when you're a clumsy klutz.
(clumsy klutz?redundant...)
I don't think I've fallen down for a long time.
Woah!
Haha,you broke my only heart and now I have two!
Inside joke.

Gah.I feel so hungry.
I feel like eating Hokkien Mee.
Then I'll have a Hawaiian pizza slice.
Followed by chocolate cookies.
Then two Polvorons!
Okay,suddenly I feel full thinking of all this food.
I'll just have an apple now.

spaz,spaz,spaz

Listening to : Mr Brightside - The Killers

Ouch,my eyes hurt.
I think I'm in love with facebook.
Or some applications.
Yeah,definitely.

I was so happy just now,skipping around my room and singing along to Get Low.
Don't know why.
Okay,actually I do know.
But its so ridiculous.
I giggle everytime I think about it.
I should stop using the word giggle so often.

I LOVE ALL TIME LOW!

You're sad to know your summer's gone

Listening to : Magic Sticks In December - Best Interest

Ouch,ouch,ouch.
My calves hurt.
I blame my dad.
He had a supposedly great idea for the whole family to go to Upper and Lower Pierce Reservoir to walk.

11.30pm - C.S.I ended,tuned in to HBO where a movie starring Richard Gere and Sharon Stone was showing.
2.00am - Slept.
6.00am - Woke up,realised my phone's alarm had been ringing since 3.00am cos I initially planned to wake up at 3am to watch the Champions League match.
6.05am - Switched on the TV to check the Champion League's match result.
6.10am - Went back to sleep.
7.25am - Woke up to the banging on my door.My dad informed me that we were gonna be late for 8.00am mass in OLPS.
7.50am - Made it to OLPS on time.

Ah,tiring shit.
Ooh,Mamma Mia was awesome.
Who knew that Harry would turn out homosexual!?
Who knew that Colin Firth could sing well?
Who doesn't know that Abba rocks?
