hello. its the holidays! ok lets rewind a bit and go back to wednesday.

Wednesday: we practiced for carnival day on Thursday. it was pretty fun. i made up another club called the cubicle club. haha. and the plays were, they were ok. whatever it is, we must always keep our morale up and you know, keep being in denial. there wasnt any drama bonding cause drama ended too late.

Thursday: today was the day! carnival day! i brought my "Aliens that stole my brain" bag to school. it wasnt as exciting as last year i think. because last year was my first time. so today was, well still exciting but not so. i helped make friendship bands for a while before heading over to the studio. i messed up for sound. very badly. track 1 came on when it was track 3. you know. awkward pause s during Rapunzel. yay michelle. but anyway after that the cubical club members rushed to the toilet to hide until it was out turn to come on.

i couldnt really see what was happening. just waited for Lorraine to tell me when Nadia was done. i came out. didnt look at the audience. stuttered and bounced. hyperventilated and screamed. then i ran away. it was AWESOME XD! i mean not my performance. but i love my role! i get to do all that and even if you mess up its alright because everyone will think its part of the show. ah, really lucky. and Lorraine did a great job too with her " Did you hear? theres this hot new NIE trainee teracher in our school" thing. lol. and Avril, Aisha and Serena were great as well with their Charlie's Angels thing. Marissa rocked in that pink dress:) and everyone else did an awesome job. Syazana and Xinxuans skit didnt go as well but that was because of that busking thing. but i think overall it was ok. some parts were messed up but its alright. you know wahts done is done.

after school i rushed to shps to meet Eunice to see teachers. we were there for 3 hours max i think. talking to every teacher that we wanted to. repeating the same things oevr and over again, haha. we talked to Mrs Wee the longest. about school, friends.. Miss or should i say Mrs Zahira told me that i had no curves again. lol, great teacher i have right? heh. after that we headed down to BK to eat Lunner. yep thats our new word for Lunch and Dinner. then we headed on over to TM where i sorta ordered 3 polos. i know i know. not supposed to spend money yada yada yada. but thats my own money! so really i was first afraid that i was spending too much of my parents money. but since this is mine, it should be alright. yeahXD and i know, i'm really good at this denial thing. haha.

also, i got my report book back. which is the downside to evrything. because with the report book, comes major punishments.

wont go into detail because i dont want to *waves hands about* relive the nightmare. but what happened was that i got scolded, i'm only allowed an hour a day (a little more if i'm lucky) on the tv or computer. the rest of the time will be devoted to studying my favourtie subject, maths. and yep, i was being sarcstic. so here i am rushing through this post. and Sarah would know i take a long time to post. so lets get on to friday.

Friday: my post isnt very ineteresting is it? i was reading through it and i realised that it wasnt very interesting. i'm repeating my words again. ack ok stop it michelle. so today was the lsat day of school! yay! and it didnt go out with a bang. it went out with Operation Clean up. which is just a cool term the school uses to make you clean up your class. and then there was the whole Art saga. and we were pretty lucky because we were one of the groups who needn't do so much cause our project was done. now however, we might have to do more, WAY more.

you see we left our project on the bus. and so Lorraine and i went back to the Interchange to get it but we werent as lucky as last time. it wasnt there. and from what we know it was on its way to Jurong East. so yes our head with wires was gone. and i think we have to do it over. i really hope they find it. but well, i guess we're lucky that its not due Monday.

Saturday, Today: Mrs Ho called up! she was talking to Mum for about half an hour. i'm getting goose bumps jsut thinking about it. i guess i should be glad that it was my Mum who wanted her to call her. not Mrs Ho calling on her own accord. i'm phrasing it confusingly i know. i did 2 hours of Maths and now i'm here.

not interesting at all right? and i put on weight. really. ack.

ah! when will the nightmare be over!? *falls on knees and cries*

when you wake up Michelle. when you finally wake up.

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)

hello! ok first of all, thanks a million to Sarah for her very suripising birthday gift. haha. it was the best. you rock girl. and ok now for the main point of my post. yes, you know how i mentioned that shopping was excercise?

dont believe a single word i say. i'm warning you.

so as you can guess i went shopping today again. and i bought stuff again. and you know why do we need to go shopping to excercise? we might as well go to the gym. but like going to the gym, shopping has its pros and cons. when you go to the gym, you excercise, burn calories and all that. you do the same with shopping and you get clothes as a reward. but just like after you go to the gym, you know when your hair gets gunky and you have a serious case of body odour, after shopping you feel like you've spent a lot of money. well in my case, you did spend a lot of money. and now i feel horrible. i dont feel bad for buying what i bought, but more for how much i spent on what i bought. right ok i'm not making sense again.

so yep, i have to stop doing this. spending money. i dont want to grow up having mountains and mountains of credit card bills because i cant seem to stop buying things. and you know whats the worst part? my sense of *does 2 finger bounce thing* "style" isnt even fantastic! so you know like, after buying all of that i'll still look like i dressed myself in the dark. and so all the way home i was thinking of what i would do to stop this addiction. yes, its an addiction. oh gosh, i can just picture the scenario in my head right now.

Me: hello, er, i'm Michelle.

Fellow Addicterators (my word for people who are addicted to stuff): hello Michelle.

Me: well, hi. er, i'm here today becasue i have an addiction, to *dramatic pause* shopping.

Fellow Addicterators: *gasps*

Addicterator 1: oh poor child..

Addicterator 2: i know i went throught the EXACT same thing..

Me: yes, its true. i'm one of those people who walk around Orchard till their feet break apart looking for the perfect something to buy. and i mean thats ok. but here comes the bad part. i, i spend a lot of money.

Random Addicterator in the back row: DOWN WITH TEMPTATION!

Me: *shouts to that person* YES! yes i know. but i cant. and everytime, i never buy something that i want to buy, theres this voice in my head saying "get me.. go back there and get me.."

Random Addicterator in the back row again: THE VOICE OF THE DEVIL!

Me: and you know whats worse? its not the voice of that little lady in my head!

Addicterators: *silence*

Me: *exasperated* and yes i have a little lady living inside my head. *breaking down*

Addicterator 3: oh my god.

Me: and i just, i dont know what to do. i mean like today. i saw these really, really cool pair of aviators which were tinted brown and were really, really nice. they were 10 dollars which is pretty cheap but i didnt get it. and now that voice is just screaming "GO BACK THERE AND GET ME!"

Random Addicterator in the back row again: SOMEBODY PRESS THE MUTE BUTTON!

Me: *to that person again* exactly! and so i want to stop and unfortunately, the only solution i can think off, is to-

Addicterators: *listen eagerly*

Me: boycott shopping.

Random Addicterator in the back row again: NO!!! *faints*

Me: and now i made someone faint. oh gosh. so yes i'm going to boycott shopping. from now on i'm not going near Orchard. ok maybe i will but i wont get anything. i will limit my spending becasue this is a horrible state.

Addicterator 4: you go sister!

Addicterators: *stand up and clap* go Michelle!

Me: *nods* thankyou.. thankyou..

so yes i'm going to boycott shopping. i have to. for the greater good. so yes. boycotting shopingXD *punches fist in air*

um, ok maybe i'll start this whole boycotting thing after i buy my polos. i have to. i have this *thing* for polos. some kind of horirble fetish. and they're on sale now so yeah. ok. ok you know what? i really should just stop talking.

so, well er, wish me luck!

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)

hello! ytd was the best! oh wow ok lets start of with saturday.

Saturday:
I met Lorraine and Elc to go to orchard and i had no idea i made them wait 20 minutes. but ha i guess they "occupied" themselves. hee, go figure out what that means. but still sorry. heh. ok then we got to Orchard and walked a whole lot. we walked to many places and i went to Far East for the first time. my camera wasnt really utilised lol but i think they have the mental image of stuff in their minds. i bought a shirt and a belt. hooray! and i should stop spending so much. so no more shopping. but since i walked a lot, i should have burned a lot of calories right? so yes this is the new mentality.

"Shopping is excercise"

i saw lotsa stuff that i wanted to get. and Siti gave me 20 dollars and my brother surprisingly gave me 50 dollars. so i guess i'll be able to get them. so ok back to Orchard. we went around to many places i hadnt been before but then i had to go cause i had to go for dinner. so i left Lorraine and Elc and Tangs. i walked around there a while before walking again to Good Wood Park for chinese.

i forgot the restaurants name but it was awesome. pretty reasonable also. we were seated outside by the pool where we had our i think 5 course meal. so yep, i ate ALOT. and talked about holidays. heh, we could go on and on about it. so yes first it was Tokyo, then New Zealand, then Hawaii, the Maldives, Mexico, Brazil! and my brother kept pushing the Hawaii thing. and then he blamed me because mum was pregnant with me when they wanted to go to Hawaii 14 years ago. so my brother felt deprived. it was all in good fun though. after that my parents gave me my present which was a Lancome eye shadow pallet. i was shocked! werent parents supposed to discourage you from using make up? and Lancome moreover! my mum said it costs over 50 dollars. again, shocked.

Sunday:
I woke up early i have no idea why. i hopped downstairs (really i did) and played the computer. i guess my dad let me off because it was my birthday. heh. and i did something really stupid to my hair. i cut it myself. not something you want to try doing. but if you ever do, never pull at your hair tightly to cut it. i'm talking about bangs. because if you do what i did which was that, it'll bounce up and become way shorter. so yes. i look like a freak. which isnt really different from before right. okok, anyway at 430 i went to meet Gladys, Shayus, Dyane and Jomel. the rest couldnt come. Eunice wasnt going to meet us later. so my dad drove us back while dear Dyane was going on about the er bgr going on in her school and when we finally reached home i said "Dyane! my dad's here!" which didnt really help because i said it when we got home. so yes the poor girl went "oh i forgot." and giggled. haha. and Jomel and Dyane kept fighting. it was so cute. like primary school all over again. and Gladys prounounced stead as steed. and like the whole night we just went on and on about it. by the end of the day the word stead had been replaces by steed. in honour of GladysXD. and i ate a lot again. lets try not to think about that. ok so after the cake, we went to my room and played truth or dare. and that game is seriously dangerous.

when Jomel chose dare, we made her call her schoolmate to ask him what colour his underwear was. yep. we are one weird bunch:). and then Dyane chose dare. so we made her call Yuwei to ask him what the colour of his underwear was. oh my gosh it was so funny. he kept going "hah?" and that he couldnt hear her. but lol it was the funniest. and then Gladys chose dare so we made her call Chuan Yi to ask him the same thing and i cracked up. i was losing my mind. i was off the rocker! well you get it i was insane! and they both had to say they were at my house for some reason. and yep, i did one of those Michelle things again. that you know, you do something because it sounded fun for the moment when really it wasnt? yep. in my moment of insanity i asked Chuan Yi whether he prefered polka dotted underwear or striped. and he replied rainbow. i'm laughing just thinking about it. i have this image of rainbow underwear in my head now. but not on him so dont get the wrong idea. oh wow, i'm thinking about it again. oh wow. oh wow. oh wow. heeXD. ok i dont know whether that was weird or pevertic. probably both. but oh my god, wow! and why am i saying wow? oh gosh. heh.

Monday:
i was talking to myself this morning while waiting for the bus. i remember saying "what a blustery morning." and i thought of Winnie the Pooh. so yeah haha. and when i reached school, nothing much happened until after lit. and ok, i have come to the conclusion that i have no shame. for the past week, i have been saying to Evonne, "Evonne, my markers are running out of ink." over and over again. and when i talked to her online she said she didnt get it. and the next day i still went "my markers are running out of ink" just for fun and she gave me a sheepish look. when i got back i saw this blue thing on my desk.i opened it and there staring at me was a full range of lovely colourful markers! i was shocked. i was like jumping. and going "
Evonne!" in that high pitched i'm-so-shocked voice of mine. and squealing like a maniac. oh my gosh i was so shocked. most of all because i wasnt expecting it. i mean because she told me she didnt get it. and there it was. staring at me. i died. i used my new markers to colour something i drew again. it was awesome. thanks Evonne! i love it so much. i love you too.

and all you guys who got me presents, thanks so much! really cute stuff. heh and everone who wished me happy birthday as well. you guys rock. haha i'm 14! i'm 14! i'm 14! *jumps* and that is not 14 behaviour at all is it. but wait, how exactly should a 14 year old act? right, i bet you never thought about that.

actually it feels the same but lets all pretend it doesnt alright? :) hooray 14! like Lorraine and Elc said,

"Welcome to the Club."

and may the force be with you.

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)

"hi! would you like to spend a day in *does the two finger bounce thing* 'Michelle's shoes' ? tickets are now only at half price. please :) come on, it'll be fun. walk through life as Michelle Wong for one day only. get to experience what she experiences. anyone? ok *takes marker and scribbles on price card* half off that half off! anyone? an unforgetable experience! you get to go through insecurity, stupidity, failure, and basically every bad emotion you can ever imagine. you! yes you over there! you look like a Michelle type. hey, hey! dont go away! hey! dont run! someone quick before i mark this down to a zero. alrighty then *scribbles on price card again* there. zero. you Singaporeans always go for a bargain. *taps foot* someone? *looks at Michelle* i'm sorry,"

"ahh its ok, i mean really who would want to be me. because like-"

"you're pathetic."

"*flabbergasted*"

"well i'm sorry honey but thats the truth."

"well i guess you're right. i mean really, would anyone want to go through my life? not that its really bad or anything like that i mean i've got a great family, great friends, not very dramatic-"

"yes but you fail. you know like tests and all that? like your maths which you HAD to pass? you know considering the fact that you failed all your other tests?"

"er, *shifts* right. yeah i-"

"and your near failing history grade. what about that. i thought you sorted that out."

"i did! or well i thought i did. but i guess i didnt. well yeah i guess i'm pathetic. level 2 answers."

"*rambles on* and, your chinese. do i need to remind you of Michelle's speak chinese day."

"oh yes, it happened last friday. where i tried to speak in chinese all day."

"most horrible campaign i've ever seen. you're lucky to have a friend like Elc who joined you in sounding weird. i mean i wouldve gotten SO annoyed..."

"ah right:) thank goodness for Elc."

"Michelle, you cannot live like this. you cannot keep failling. you cannot keep doing this to yourself. and your family. imagine having to tell your mum that. and then your dad. and now you have your tuition teacher to let down. but yeah, i guess they're used to it."

"*sighs* yeah i guess."

"no."

"no?"

"you're not suppsoed to agree with me."

"i'm not?"

"yes. i mean no. i mean yes. i mean yes you say no."

"er, ahh.. i'm sorry i think i'm too slow?"

"no! no such talk! you're suppsoed to say 'no they arent!' because you're gonna work harder so that you'll make them proud!"

"well yeah i know i've been saying that for so long and i've been trying but maybe its just time to face the fact that 'Michelle, *does Donald Trump thing* you're stupid.' "

"*loud gasps* My. God."

"well dont tell me you havent thought about that. maybe i really have some kind of you know, defficiency. i bet i spelt that wrong huh."

"yes you have a defficiency my dear. its called Low Level of Self Believence in One's Self syndrome."

"er ah. that made no sense."

"it does! if you think about it. thats the problem Michelle you dont think. your mind is off in Viva La Michelle. galavanting over town, taking trips to Disney Land or something like that."

"ok."

"ok? thats all you can say. ok?"

"well i dont know what else to-"

"shh! *holds up hand* dont speak. *to imaginary stranger* she said ok. i say all that and what does she say? ok! ok! like you know 'oh i'm going to bring you out for ice cream now.' "oh thats nice, ok:)' my. god. what kind of child is this-"

"Miss Concsience, please. calm down."

"and you dont even know who i am! i've been speaking for you for so long and i get a Miss Concsience!"

"*frowns* arent you my concsience?"

"of course not. leave that job to that little bum cricket in that whale. i'm the little lady who lives in your head."

"right because thats so much classier."

"exactly. at least i have a purpose in life."

"but a concsience has a purpose too."

"yes but well your concsience tells you silly lies like, 'dont think you're fat, so you can still eat that packet of fries' while i tell you that honey you are pushing a size 3 so put that packet of oil away and drink some water."

"ok."

"please, dont say that word again."

"alright."

"*stops* right. ok, anything that has the same meaning as the word 'ok' is now totally banned."

"then what do i say to agree?"

"you say *stops* can't you just nod?"

"ok. oops i mean *nods*. but what shall i call you?"

"call me.. *thinks and walks a bit*"

"*nods and waits*"

"*spins around* your sixth sense *big grin*"

"how about just Lady Sense? cause that 'sixth sense' thing would be a little weird."

"Sense, Lady sense. *nods* not bad for someone who doesnt use her brain."

"and now you're going to live in it."

"ha. i always have honey. jsut that now i chose to come out."

"thankyouXD"

"ok now wipe that smile off your face because poeple are staring at you."

"oh yes, right. thanks Lady Sense."

"*struggles* and dont be sappy. "

oh my gosh wow. what is wrong with me? you know what? dont answer that heh. because i really dont need to know.

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)

hello. ok its official, ytd was the best day of my life. really it was so fun! i thought i'd never be able to do it. but i did. and it was the coolest thing ever. ok emotions to sum up ytd. excitement, anxiety, nervousness, serious intimidation, happiness, insecurity, frustration just about ever emotion i couldve gone through. except sadness, haha no way was there sadness.

i rushed there after school and got ready. and when we reached there, we had to wait a logn while because it was raining. so we took pictures and talked alot. Aunty Mabel (haha maybe i should call her Bibi Mabel) was so fun. and inspiring. she gave great advice. and it was really fun. the whole thing was fun. and then i started freaking out because i had to go off early for an audi and didnt know if i could make it. i mean, i didnt even know if i couldve have gone for it. but i could. thanks Claudia! i love you so much. and it was so fun working with them. really. they touched my shoulders heeXD. and made jokes. and all the stuff i'd never thought would happen to me happened. and yeah, i did kinda care whether the people there liked me or not. haha, guess you cant get rid of that part of me. but, you know what? i'm ok. i'm dealing with it. haha.

so after that i rushed for the audi i think i was the last one there because it was almost 8. and the audis were suppose to end at 8. so yep. hee it was still fun though. dont think i did too well but you know, its ok. i'm ok with itXD heh.

and aisha, sorry i didnt ask you! i wanted to, along with Lorraine, Marissa, Avril and Serena. but then i didnt know if you guys could come. so i told them i didnt think they could. and yeah. so sorry. i'll tell you more about it on monday.

so ok i came on to blog about ytd. hee. i should get off now. history test next monday. wish me luck!

Michelle went "Hey macadamia":)

hello, oh wow its late. and i'm sitll on. i've been on for about 3 hours. home ec project. heh. talking about home ec, do you know phoebe and i can't cook? i mean as partners. individually i'm sure phoebe can cook, for me, haha, i'm not so sure. but together, somethign will always go wrong. our dough is too buttery, the chicken turns black or our lemon tea is too sour. haha, the things we get ourselves into. but actually, i mean, its fun making those mistakes. although most of them must have been mine. Phoebe's great!

had drama bonding today! it was so fun. yakked alot and made lots of noise. heeXD. had a grilled chicken foldover. not too bad. but i ate this block of chocolate that Fezra gave me (thanks girl!) so yes, i'm feeling good right now. and then there was this very embarrassing situation in Caltex. you're probably going " what now.." right. okok, haha. well so heres what happened. a bit censored.

after eating i needed to go to the toilet. so i got the key and went in and latched the door. and you know that the radio blasts in the toilet. so there i was, jumping up and down and dancing away like a mad woman. (so i'd probably lost some calories then right?) ok. so then i finally decided to er, do what i came there to do. ok heres the gross part. i sat down, tapping my feat (i do that) and you know like humming away when the toilet door barges open and i'm like "OH MY GOD!" and i push the door and slam it in that persons face. ok, so here i start freaking out. i wash up, and go out. i think the lady i slammed the door in was the manager. so i was like "way to go Michelle. of all people the manager of Caltex." and so i hurried to Fezra, Nadia and Aisha to tell them my horrible story. and then i told Lynette, Von, Debbie and Sakina cause they were there too. so there i was, painfully avoiding the manager at all costs. and i think she gave me a look. so yeah, i was scared out of my wits. so when the manager goes out to help someone. i go up to the cashier and say.

Me:hi! er, is your manager nice?
Cashier: (she gave me a *ha?* look)
Me: oh because just now i was in the toilet, and i thought i latched it but it wasnt latched, so then your manager pushed the door open and i freaked out so i pushed the door in her face and i'm scared to say sorry because well i'm scared so do you think shes nice?
Cashier: (another *ha?* look) the managers over there *points*
Me: *looks* ah i know. *looks again* oh no i think she saw me. do you think i should apologise? its ok if i dont apologise right? but then its not very nice.
Cashier: (she stares at me open mouthed and points again) the managers over there.
Me: oh, er (i smile) ok. so i should apologise right.
Cashier: (stares at me open mouthed again)
Me: ok nevermind. (gives her that horrible smile) thankyou!

and i run to Nadia and Aisha. and then she comes in and i'm like "Michelle, go! apologise!" so i shoot up and go to her and relate the whole story. you know the Michelle way. like i dont breathe. and shes like "oh, its ok. next time close the door properlly." and i smiled at her again, "thankyou!" so yep. the things i get myself into. and it was a good thing that it was the girls toilet. well haha you see, i was with the key right? outside. desperately trying to open the door. you know, like twisting and turning. knocking and asking if anyone was there. and i was seriously thinking of just using the mens for a while. when Marissa came with Azian and and was like "Is anyone inside?" and i was like "I think so." and she took the key and put it in the keyhole and whaalaa (thats how i spell voila) ! it opens. so, thank God for Marissa. but then again if i had used the mens, the manager wouldnt have barged in on me right? but then i'd probably get freaked out by how the mens looks like. so yep, i lose either way.

so drama bonding! we walked past the girl guides and now i think they hate me but lets not get on to that. i'm paranoid i know i know. gosh Michelle stop being such a worry wart. ok so today was really fun and interesting. and unexpected. so basically everyone i know hates Hilary Duff. why!? Hilary's great! shes pretty, talented, nice, shes perfect! and i'm not er, unstraight in any way so dont think about that. heh. and then Serena took out her pictures of Johnny Depp. who for the record, is NOT hot. XD. and so i showed them my pics of Hilary Duff. i have a lot so it was scary. haha. and oh yes for drama we could host the session for 30 minutes. so i jumped about alot. and during Zombie i was practically screaming away and running. but yea i did a lot of that so it was probably good for me also.

oh yes back to macs. so there we were about to leave. and i decided to be stupid and take a balloon. yes, i take a balloon. it has the words "happy meal" on it. and i take it. so i carry the thing with me all the way home with Lorraine. and when i'm almost reaching home, i realise, "Michelle, you are not supposed to be at macs." i look at my balloon. and instead of throwing it away, i figure i'll just stash it in Sit's room. so i close the gate, peer into the studyroom where i see my dad and scurry off into the kitchen to hide my balloon. and then when i come out, my dad asks me "you went to macdonalds?" i nod and run. thats what you do. you nod and run. run to where? infront of the tele where i watch the discovery channel with my brother.

okok, i gotta run! my dads scolding. will blog again! Night!

Michelle went "Hey macadamia" :)
