I’ll be using this to reply to some of the comments left here.

I might also leave a random note here and there.

Syae – Jarno is freakin’ awesome. [Wednesday, July 15, 11:19 PM]

Ahaha, I have black and red braces! I’m not very emo though – I’m more or less a chilled out person. I’m not here to talk about my braces though.

I’m here to talk about F1. Just a bit, not a lot.

OH MY GOODNESS. SEBASTIEN BOURDAIS IS OUT OF FORMULA 1!

F1.com was so overwhelmed about it, they made a typo in their article. Said typo is “…joined Toro Roos in 2008…”

In any case, I’m sure the typo will be amended soon.

Back to Bourdais though. OH MY GOD, HE’S OUT! I feel kinda sad for him. Good luck in whatever you’re doing next, Sebastien!

No more Sebastien and Sebastien in Toro Rosso. =(

“So shiny and new”

July 13, 2009

Mark Webber won his first ever Grand Prix race! According to the interviewer at the post-race press conference, it took him 27 [or was it 28?] years to finally win a race! Well done!

Anyway, as happy as I am for Mark, I’m sad for Kimi because he had to retire from the race. Oh, Ferrari. *sigh* At least Felipe got a podium finish. Good on him!

Jarno Trulli turns 35 today! And I only knew that because I was listening to AM Mayhem on the radio this morning. Daniel Ong said Jarno’s not a very tall man. Either way, Jarno’s still cool because he has a vineyard.

Speaking of Jarno, there was this woman who came to my school a couple of months back to talk about an organization we had to help out. Then she said something about how the underprivileged kids from the organization had the chance to meet Toyota F1 drivers, Timo Glock and Jarno Trulli. I just broke out laughing there and then because the woman spoke immaculately, with an American accent and all [false or genuine, I haven't a clue], and then suddenly when it came to Jarno Trulli’s name, she goes to say “JARno” instead of “YARno”. Ahahaha!

On that note, good night and have a good week!

This week was a pretty good week! Apart from being stressed and absolutely worried about that Chemistry test yesterday, it was all pretty great.

I just came back from swimming with Elly actually and I reek of chlorine. I’ve already had a shower but I still reek of chlorine! My eyes are now pretty sore and vision’s kinda blurry because I didn’t wear goggles when I swam, ahaha. There’s water in my ears too, haha.

In any case, I went to Ngee Ann Polytechnic yesterday. I followed the Media and Humanities track while Ika followed the Health and Life Science track. It was pretty fun. All the NP ambassadors were friendly and amicable.

We watched a couple of performances by the school’s percussion band, Baracuda Batucada, their cheerleading squad, Magnum Force [this reminds me of ice cream], and their dance troupe whose name I can’t recall. Shame on me. In any case, the performances were all amazing and I was simply awed by their talents.

I engaged in a few activities at the School of Film and Media studies and the School of Humanities. It was pretty great. I had a chance to interact with some students from different secondary schools and I won a voucher for one of the activities, so win-win.

After all that, I went to the Convention Centre to meet Ika. I managed to meet Alyssa outside the Convention Centre. We had a very quick catch-up session before she went off for her French class.

Back at the Convention Centre, I spoke to a few of the NP ambassadors. Well, they actually came up to me because I was standing around like a fool. Anyway, one of them was studying International Business, the other Biomedical Science or something along those lines, I can’t remember, and the other one Banking and Financial Services. I’m pretty sure he’s studying that anyway, I remember hearing him say “financial”.

Anyway, we went on to the topic about Direct Poly Admission [DPA] and he told me he came from DPA. He pretty much told me his story when he applied through DPA. He also said not to give up hope if I don’t get accepted and I should try other ways of applying.

In any case, I’m much more motivated thanks to him and I’m definitely going to try out DPA.

Have you watched Little Britain? If your answer is no, then I advise that you watch it because it is so freakin’ funny!

Carol Beer’s one of the characters in Little Britain, by the way. She’s one of my favourites. Sebastian Love’s my favourite too. Oh, Little Britain, I adore thee.

In any case, school was as usual today. I was in a very good mood, but I don’t actually know why. I was just in a very good mood. So much so that my friends asked me why I was so happy because I was singing and flouncing around.

There was a pop quiz on rivers during Geography today. I’m pretty sure I failed it because I don’t know much about rivers. I’m better with natural vegetation.

Anyway, woot! [Do people actually go "woot!" in real life?] Formula 1 this weekend! I bet all the German drivers will be aiming to win the race. It’ll be pretty funny if a non-German driver, say Jenson Button, won the race though. Ahahahaha.

Before I go, OH MY GOD, TWO CONTINUOUS PERIODS OF MATHEMATICS TOMORROW MORNING!

This upcoming Monday is Youth Day. That means I have 3 days off school! I don’t have a lot of homework to complete so I’ll be spending the long weekend catching up on sleep. Huzzah!

Anyway, today during CME, Mr Kamar talked about death. He talked about his feelings when his pets died and whatnot. He also spoke about how he looked up to the late Michael Jackson. Mr Kamar did the moonwalk before that though. It was pretty amusing. After all, it’s not every day your teacher busts a move on you.

I haven’t a clue what time it is where Sebastian Vettel’s at [I don't even know where he's at. He could be in Switzerland or Germany or England or something], but in any case, I’d like to wish him a happy 22nd birthday.

Never stop doing this:

Seriously, never stop doing that. It’s cool. So much so that Ika and I enjoy doing it spontaneously to amuse/irritate [it depends on the situation] your number 1 fan, Syae.

Don’t stop doing this too:

Oh wow, look at that butt!

Ahem. ANYWAY, here’s to many happy returns!!
