we walk
when nothing makes you feel good
i am somewhat tired.
and sick.
physically.
and mentally.
drained.
my nose is like a leaking tap.
its like the mini waterfall at the pond outside the school's staffroom,
like the fountains at Marina Barrage,
its like Victoria Falls, Niagara Falls, Browne Falls, Pu'uka'oku Falls,
whatever Falls lah.
bottomline is that my nose is really starting to get on my nerves
and no amount of NTUC own-brand tissue
can stop the copious amounts of mucus from flowing.
]=
i am miserable, but a day off from school IS kind of nice.
thank you daddy for the germs.
(:
okay fine, to be frank, i overslept this morning.
i told my mom i had a headache.
so i went back to bed, woke up,
felt revitalized, took a bath, ate breakfast, and fell sick.
i fell sick after i ate the damned panadol.
AFTER.
oh the irony, it irons my shirt.
hahahaha
and so here i am.
like Radyamansyah on a mundane school morning,
(actually it's afternoon now)
trapped at home with nothing to do
while everyone else is on the run
and occupied by exciting school-related activities.
you wait, boy.
you're starting school on Monday
and we'll see who's the one crying eh.
hahahaha
i'd rather read a book than blog,
and i'd rather sleep than read a book.
(considering my headache)
but the reason why im blogging now is i just cannot sleep,
(i think its because the sunlight from the window blinds me)
and i just cannot read!
(because im at the boring anticlimax of the book)
ah yes, i woke up this morning to a text from Deon,
wishing me good luck for the SYF auditions today.
how perfectly convenient;
i just HAD to miss school on the day of SYF auditions.
-___-
just like the previous SYF auditions, two years ago.
somehow, i made it in, without going through the auditions.
now they're cutting the players down to six.
i am such a cheaterbug for missing auditions.
i hope the other trumpeters understand.
=/
btw, ive deleted my facebook account.
i told you i was going to!
=D
hmmmm.
i remember there was one morning when i was at the bus stop,
going to school.
the second my right foot entered the bus, i heard an ugly scream,
"ZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!"
i wouldve looked around if i werent already in the bus, i swear.
but i was already in the bus!
it didnt make sense to alight, look around for the screamer of my name,
and then board the bus again.
hahahahaha
anyway, as it turned out, the screamer was Jacob
and he happened to be across the road with Zul.
hahahaha. silly.
you know what?
this is very unlike me, but i kinda want my math teacher back.
shes at the hospital, i heard.
and so the school dumped a snobby,
young and annoying substitute teacher on us.
he's rather impertinent, i daresay.
he thinks we're little kids with no lives
and have 24 hours of the day to do Standard Deviation.
i dont care if he was from whatever top JCs or what.
i just want my math teacher back.
having your teacher not enter lessons is like guilty pleasure.
you know you love missing lessons,
you know you can take a nap or run around the class,
or listen to music or read a book or do other homework or reply a text,
and most of the time you dont really care
if your teacher's at home sneezing her eyes out
or coughing her lungs out
or dying on the hospital bed.
but it's been two weeks since we had a proper math lesson,
and whats the point of being in the so-called best banded math class
when im going to fail math anyway?!?!
hence, Mdm Tan, im begging you to please come back as soon as possible.
on Tuesday when my family headed to Marina Barrage,
we had this little conversation.
Zany: wahhhh we shouldve brought guitar eh?
Mom: for what? it's not like you and your brother are that good.
Zwan: *looks at me* eh, mom just insulted you.
UH, excuse me,
i may not be a guitar-strumming prodigy
but im better at the guitar than my brother lor okay,
he said so himself!
hahahaha
but he was the one who gave the the guitar(s)
and supplied me with guitar picks
so i owe him one.
plus he cooked me maggi this morning.
im touched.
and for that, i shall put a stunning picture of him here.
^^
eh guess what, Ahdila said i scored the highest
for the english compo diagnostic test.
happy ah, then?
at least theres something to be happy about today,
despite my runny nose and monumental eyebags
and swelling throat and disability to sing.
but most of the time, things arent as bad as they seem.. right?
wrong!
i look like the female version of the Hunchback of Notre Dame.
i recall one day last week when i made Dexter cry.
well, not really CRY cry but cry cry (?).
i wanted to ask him for help on POA
so i was like, "DEXTER, DEXTER, DEXTER, DEXTER, DEXTER"
(this went on for approximately five minutes but he didnt respond.)
at last, when he responded, i said,
"go away lah. i dont want to talk to you already.
i call you so many times you ignore me im so huuuuurt"
of course i was joking, im never that sensitive.
but he had a wounded expression on his face and his eyes got watery.
"IM SORRYYYYY! uhhhh im sorry syazwani im sorry im sorry!"
hahaha and i was like, "im just joking lah, haiyaaaaaaaa!"
and he was like, "i know but i feel so guiltyyyyyy!"
hahahah dexter, dexter, so farni hahhhh
okay obviously i have nothing much to blog.
nothing happened yesterday.
yesterday wasnt a good day.
PE was fun but i got creeped out by that sec one stalker guy
who was having recess while i was having PE, lol. dont ask.
i had fun with Ahdila and Jian Yun
and Wan Hui and Yu Lun and Xiong Yao and Lewis;
my PE group.
we played a crap version of Captains' Ball
and they were so sexist. hahaha! boys, boys.
i accidentally bopped Wan Hui on her head with the ball.
i was standing like, 10 metres away?! cool or what!
hahahaha!
anyway, yesterday for the whole day in school
i was dying and craving for McSpicy.
but all i got during recess was a sad plate of Mee Rebus.
which i didnt finish.
hahahahaha.
so, after school,
i rushed home and grabbed some money and headed to the nearest McDonalds'
and ordered an extra value meal, MCSPICY!
and hence, my dear readers, i have eaten McSpicy
THREE TIMES
in the 15 and three quarters years of my existence.
that is quite an achievement, i must say!
^^
OOOOOOOOH!

you know what?
it's been a while since i felt the adrenalin rush of performing on stage.
(band is NOT counted)
be it singing, strumming the guitar, acting, anything!
i miss it. =/
and wow, it's almost the end of the week.
so soon?
it means im one week less away from O's!
is it time to freak out yet?!
