Isn't there a better word to use than the 4-letter 'S' word?

three weeks to the end of year exaaaams. it's coming so soon, too soon.

tried lucas' banana drink on saturday and it was pretty good. :D.

oh yea. check out this website. http://www.blackle.com/.

"Blackle was created by Heap Media to remind us all of the need to take small steps in our everyday lives to save energy.

Blackle saves energy because the screen is predominantly black. "Image displayed is primarily a function of the user's color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen." Roberson et al, 2002

In January 2007 a blog post titled Black Google Would Save 750 Megawatt-hours a Year proposed the theory that a black version of the Google search engine would save a fair bit of energy due to the popularity of the search engine. Since then there has been skepticism about the significance of the energy savings that can be achieved and the cost in terms of readability of black web pages.

We believe that there is value in the concept because even if the energy savings are small, they all add up. Secondly we feel that seeing Blackle every time we load our web browser reminds us that we need to keep taking small steps to save energy."

soooo, technically my blog is saving energy. (black blog and metal band don't equate to emo btw.)


okay back to the happenings of the wonderful monday.

today's lessons were pretty much crap. argh mondays. math and english were just insane and throughout math lesson i was trying so hard not to laugh. (reasons shall not be disclosed here. :D) i think i haven't laughed that hard for ages and ages already so it felt pretty good though my stomach was really aching after that. well english was just plain retarded cause the teacher left us in class on our own to practice for the english orals this wednesday(S_ _ _!!) and nat and i were just reading the passages in all sorts of accents. (pronounced and stressed as AKsent, okay whatever.) we even had some crack-voice version and a screamo-like version which was really really noisy. but the whole class was in chaos and really noisy already anyway so we didn't really contribute (pronounced and stressed as kenTRIByut, okay okay whatever.) to the racket.

omg. there's this little swell on my lips which hurts like wts_ _ _ . argh argh argh. i have no idea (ay-DEE-er) how it got there. the entrance of its presence was just so subtle (SUT-L) but its already (orl-RED-di) such an irate (eye-RATE). argh.

kk. shall go do my history essay tonight. right after i completed one, i have to do another. (s_ _ _.)

6:33 PM


Jul 24, 2007

freaking headacheeeeeeee. i think its because of the chilly weather. i pretty much like the weather this way though.

nothing much happened today i guess. we had tennis for pe today. man, i swear the racket is so hard to control. sheena and i hit 2 tennis balls out of the school to the road next to the courts. :X

okay i think i shall go back to work now. argh history pt. its really really making me go insane.


As I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of LA
The footsteps that were next to me
Have gone their separate ways
I've seen enough now
To know that beautiful things
Don't always stay that way
I've done enough now
To know this beautiful place
Isn't everything they say

it's currently my favourite song for now. : ). i think, i'm going to get another a7x album.

7:10 PM

Like you imagined when you were young.
Jul 19, 2007

okay excellent... i just spent about 3 or 4 hours pasting little squares for history pt. argh. its so freaking time consuming. and the squares weren't even exactly little, nor were they really the same size (or shape, heh heh heh). argh. and i only finished pasting the sky. wow.

well done, well done. this project is driving me mad. oh and today we learnt this really cool sign for physics. (yes denise, i've finally learnt this.)

Fleming is sooo cool yo.

it's racial harmony day celebrations in school tomorrow. which means slack (but also means dragginess). going to support judo competition with nat (and peiting, yunting and charlene?) tomorrow after school. and uhh. hair cut. hope it doesnt screw up.

and cbox is driving me mad too cause i can't read or post anything. gaaah.


uhhhh. peace out magnetic field going out?

Jul 18, 2007

the weather's finally pretty cool today, unlike other days of the past few months. and im pretty awake today. maybe it's cause i napped for 5 hours yesterday. : / (And forgot to send sandra my part for the SS essay.)

i'm actually revisiting my rock and indie music library after so long since i'm not supposed to listen to metal for this term. and currently i'm listening to TAI which nat sent me.

argh. everyday's more or less the same. morning. tired. lessons. home. tired. homework. sleep. the same old cycle all over and over again.

okay i should go do some homework now. darn it's actually week5 next week. too fast.

31 days left to the eoys. gah.

6:05 PM

This all was only wishful thinking.
Jul 16, 2007

tiring day. i went straight home after school today. was hoping to take a nap but i had to rush out my chinese book review before meeting jo later to go to mediacorp.

baaaaah. so tired. workload's increasing slightly. gah. why can't cca just stop from july and not august? argh. can't seem to find time to start on my history pt. so screwed.

nat and i created faggy and uh. mrs faggy today by destroying erasers carving them out of erasers.



















no time to talk about them today. shall elaborate some other time.

i haven't listened to taking back sunday for a really long time i think.

And will you tell all your friends,
you've got your gun to my head?
This all was only wishful thinking.
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens.
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins.
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me.
I know you well enough to know you never loved me.

or am i wrong?

argh i want to hear a new metal albummmmmm.

3:40 PM

Feel the world has let you down somehow.
Jul 12, 2007

oh man. i just woke up from a 2 and a half hour nap. yea today was a really tiring day for me cause i slept pretty late the previous day trying to complete the ss ppt. but somehow i didn't sleep in any class.

after school at 1.20 like 2/3 of the class went down to waffletown for lunch. :D. the stuff was okay, not exceptional or anything. and the portions weren't very big for the price. D: nat and i shared two waffles. : )

okay i feel so brain dead now. shall go do some chinese homework. hua yu cool.

8:03 PM

What are we gonna do when you've stopped crying?
Jul 11, 2007

omg chinese orals sucked like craaaaaaaaazy.

the topic was something about the increase of GST recently. so the teacher said GST in chinese. and i didn't know that it meant GST. so i was like GG. but eventually she told me what it meant (GST, duh.) but i still didn't know what to say. so i just blanked out and was like GG crystallee all the way.

kk, enough of that. painfully excrutiating 4 minutes of sheer torture on the mind.

need to do SS ppt now. today was kind of a fulfilling day. and surprisingly i don't feel tired yet.

7:26 PM

I colour in the world I see.
Jul 10, 2007

arghhhhh. im so so so annoyed. ):

i was so hoping to take my chinese orals today. but the teachers had to go on and on about some weekend (shitty) homework that comprised a whole mock paper and some, book review shit when i think most people weren't paying attention cause well, we were panicking about the chinese orals and all. so the teachers talked and talked. and in the end there was only 15-20 minutes left and only 5 people managed to take their orals. gaaaaah.

i know im whiney and all about this (small) issue but my generaly mood for this week aint very good. gah.

6:11 PM


Jul 9, 2007

okay. so the last week was a really busy week for me and the weeks to come are gonna be worse. ate suki sushi buffet with yunting, peiting, crystalchng, pingfang, zhiying, jasmine yesterday. it was pretty good but i swear that towards the end of the buffet i ate till i felt like dyingg. argh. plus being bloated really drives you mad. cause we were laughing over small issues/nothing while eating.

cantored on saturday and it was pretty okay i guess. just glad i didn't screw up. : ) good luck denise for next week : )

today pretty much sucks cause i was soo tired. i was nodding off during first block history lesson today and the teacher caught me and said something like. good morning! oh man. and i just stonned back at him. philo was torture cause it's boring and it was hard to keep awake or even concentrate. physics was uh. crap. nat jo and i were coming up with random lines to form a story about juliaroberts, jessicaalba and stoves that make chicken noises and produce chickens. -_- nothing much happened during english. just got a little annoying, as usual. math was free block cause the teacher wasn't here and we decided to watch frankenstein. seemed pretty interesting : )

after school nat and i went to taka to get ice cream. it kind of cheered me up a little cause i had been feeling really gah and tired for the entire day. : ) went to hmv later to get some cds. nat got some TAI albums and i actually bought a rock album in like, an entire year, after getting metal cds during the entire time. got the boy with no name by travis. yes. very random. but i just felt like it. metal isn't going to make me feel positive so it can wait till after exams.

bus ride home was drowsy. was nodding off and luckily i didn't hit the glass beside me. : /. oh yea. saw someone at a certain bus stop along the way home while on the bus and im so thankful that i wasn't taking 132 or i would have to get down at that bus stop. gah.

kk now im back home. eating my lunch at 4.30pm. taking a nap after. so messed up. i still need to do ss ppt later. GG. and i wish i were artsy. then i would actually want to start doing my history pt. wow.

good morning crystallee.
