Ever since the day I started reading, my impression of you changed.
When I was growing up, you were the one whom Mum always told me to not follow.
You were the one whom Grandpa always openly verbalize his disapproval towards.
But through your blog, I see a different side of you - the side that no one really bothers looking at, the side you often do not reveal to us.
I get sucked into your world of thoughts, and I see that you're not all that they said, at least not anymore.
I see how much kinship means to you now, even though family may prolly be the last thing you would ever wanna get close to in the past.
I see how much you YEARN for your dad's attention.
A pat on the back, an encouraging word or two, but you never got all these.
Dinner at the round table, something that was never around, something that you yearn for every night.
All the referrals to the many good dads you see out there, I know you want the same attention that was never quite there.
I know you won't see this, not in a million years.
But I just wanna let you know that I look up to you a lot.
I get inspired by your blog posts.
Behind the goofy front you have, I see a different you.
I know you're trying hard.

Speechless
This song is AWESOME!
Her voice contributes wholly to the awesomeness of the song.
I’ll never talk again
Oh boy you’ve left me speechless
You’ve left me speechless, so speechless
And I'll never love again
Oh boy you've left me speechless
You've left me speechless, so speechless.

Class SL and Kittens
Had SL at Yishun's Care Service Centre, or something like that.
The centre that's super close to Northpoint.
It was ooooookay, I guess.
Because I wasn't a group facilitator, I guess I found it okay.
The group facilitators prolly thought otherwise.
Most kids there, I'm guessing, are hyperactive?
It's rather scary to watch them entertain themselves by doing funny actions, shaking their head etc.
That's because I'm not used to it.
There was this autistic boy too, who kept asking for the time.
He's kinda cute :)
Many cute kids, WAAAAAAAAAAY cuter than the ones in CAS.
Lunched at Swensens with Meiyun and Sharmini.
$16.90 gone, I am SUPER BROKE now.
Literally had NO MORE MONEY (not even a few cents I think?) to even buy a drink from 7-11 when we were going home. ):
Lazy to blog about today already.
Am gonna be a station master tomorrow, so all the best to me.
Digressing, I KEPT ON receiving this mail - Microsoft will pay you - recently.
C'mon la, isn't it OBVIOUS it's fake???
I received it a couple of months ago too.
Anyway, while waiting for Dad today, I heard this soft and high-pitched mews.
Didn't really occur to me at that moment that it was a kitten.
And when I turned my head around to look for the source, I was like SURPRISED to see this SUPER TINY kitten sheltered beneath a bike.
Initially, it was kinda scared of me, but I pet it and it realised I meant no harm.
So I carried it in my arms, and got bicycle oil stains all over my arms and shirt, nice one.
Poor kitty ):
After carrying it in my arms for what seems like forever (because Dad hasn't arrived), and with much nonchalant glances from passer-bys, I found out that there was actually ANOTHER kitten. -__-
Prolly it's sister/brother.
(Anyway I'm using it because I have no idea whether it's a female or a male.)
Didn't notice it initially because it was SO QUIET.
It was lying in a basket of a bike and wasn't at all afraid of me when I reached my free hand in to pet it.
So I guess some other cat-lovers/sympathetic souls played with them before, which explains why they're not really afraid of humans.
Had to leave them there when Dad arrived. ):
Whenever I put the kitten I was carrying down, she would try to use her claws to grab onto me, and as a result, I got scratches on my arms and legs.
When I left it on the ground, it was looking up at me with those huge innocent brown eyes and mewing super loudly, as if begging for me to not leave. )':
I swear I almost burst out crying at having to leave the kittens behind.
Sighhhhhhhhh, was so worried about them, all I could think about was them.
Imagine how cold it would be at night. ):
And what about the bike owner whose bike's basket's taken up by a kitten?
What if he hates cats (like the majority of Singaporeans do) and flings the poor kitten/carries it hastily off his bike?
):
Am going down to the station early tomorrow to try to find them.
Hope they're still there IF they are still out there, if not I hope some kind souls carried them home or to the SPCA.
Will try to beat the office crowd, because the taxi stand tends to be crowded with them in the morning, but I'm guessing it's impossible to. -__-
My phone was flat, so I couldn't snap pictures of them.
Speaking of people who hate cats, I HATE IT when people say "Ew cats, hate them" and when you ask them why, they say, "Just hate them. No reason."
FUCK YOU, I TELL YOU.
They did NOTHING for you to hate them alright, at least have a reason to hate?
There might not be a reason for you to love, but when it comes to hatred I'm sure there should be a reason.
I hate people who hate cats for no apparent reason, BECAUSE (look, here's my reason) they have no reasons to not like them.

Harmoc SL ): (long entry)
Hellooooooooo, so here's how my day went. :)
Was supposed to wake up at 6 AM, but Maid woke me up at 5.15 instead.
Fell back asleep after a while and before I knew it, it was past 6.
Rushed and reached the station at the same time Michelle reached, and we set off to Clementi.
Had another of my need-to-shit-only-when-I'm-out-of-house-but-when-I'm-at-home-no-shit thing again, so I shat (HAHA present tense: shit, past tense: SHAT) at Clementi MRT station's toilet HAHAHAHA (even though I hate shitting in public toilets).
After shitting, we walked out and bumped into Fiona, Jia Rui and others, so we went to Children Aid Society together.
Saw the kids there and I was unexpectedly INTIMIDATED by them.
Awesome right, I thought THEY were supposed to be scared of us, and not the other way round. :/
Anyway, the night before, which was yesterday, I googled Children Aid Society and found out that the children there are living there, you can say, permanently?
CAS gets informed by governmental agencies, hospitals, schools etc about children who are unable to receive care and supervision from their family members, and CAS takes these children in.
(Later on, when I was teaching the kid who was attached to me, I overheard this other girl asking the person-in-charge whether she can have home leave.)
Rather sad to know that, but I was kinda shocked that the children are quite rowdy in a sense.
They were NOT a least bit shy like how most kids between the age of 4 to 12 would be.
3 of us got attached to the only three girls there.
For this, I was glad because the boys were WAY beyond rowdy.
However, I wasn't glad for long :/
Told the three girls to choose a teacher among the three of us, and two girls chose me. :O
Both are 9 years old, but one is evidently the "leader of the pack" while the other 2 follow.
That girl's called Gracia and I really like her, because despite being only 9, you can see that she's already rather independent, and mature in some ways.
She's rather tomboy-ish too, and while the other 2 girls don't really talk to the guys, she talks about Yoyos with the guys, hahaha.
Kinda like a Big Sister there. :)
The other girl who chose me to be her teacher too is called Qiu Yun.
(I had comments saying she looks like me -.-)
Gracia chose me to be her teacher first, then Qiu Yun followed suit.
After that the situation got hard to handle because Qiu Yun didn't want to change teachers. :/
One of the ladies working/volunteering there was called and Qiu Yun was kinda reprimanded, and still, she refused to change teacher, and Gracia had to change.
And so, I got attached to Qiu Yun.
She was crying initially, after the lady told her off, and was rather shy at first.
But she slowly opened up, and that was bad -__-
She didn't want to listen to my instructions, and it was rather hard to teach her.
On the other hand, Xiao Hui had a BREEEEEEZE teaching Gracia, and I guess it's because Gracia had music background.
Gracia's DAMN good, I must say.
She picked up the songs super quickly and was able to blow CLEAR notes (which means the air goes into one hole only. For first-timers, it's common and inevitable to get double notes because the air may go into two holes at the same time).
And when she accidentally blows a double note, she'll know.
All these were unlike Qiu Yun.
She KEPT on blowing double notes and didn't really listen to me, so I didn't even try to correct her :/
Was quite envious of the other tutors as well, because the kids attached to them were all pretty fast learners.
Poor Michelle got attached to a 7 year old kid (Gracia's younger brother) and I could see how tough it was for her to teach him.
She couldn't finish teaching the two songs, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Little Bee.
My next Harmoc SL session's gonna be on the 3rd, which is the second session of Harmonica for them.
PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE hope that I won't get attached to Qiu Yun again, but I highly doubt it's possible for me to not get attached to her since she would want me to be her teacher again. ):
-sighs-
I apologize for the rather boring and lacking of emotions post.
Don't know why leh, I feel rather dead myself HAHAHA.
Train journey home was &^%&%^.
At first, it was a bunch of irritating girls from a certain school in the West.
Then, after most of them alighted, this guy with bad breath sat next to me.
WAH I ALMOST DIED I TELL YOU.
I had to literally STOP BREATHING because the smell was unbearable.
Eh dude, come on la, if you know you haven't been drinking water for quite some time, can you at least have the courtesy to NOT open your mouth OR breathe through it?!?!
It's a matter of LIFE AND DEATH that we are talking about here okay.
Thankfully, a few stops before I alighted, he changed seats HAHAHA.
I think he could tell from my body gestures that something isn't right when I seemed to be shunning away from him HAHAHAHA.
Thankfully too, there was this SUPER DUPER cute guy sitting just opposite me :D
I could like, feast my eyes on him and miraculously (spelling by courtesy of Jana) not die from the overwhelming stench.
His uniform looks like ITE's but I couldn't find the ITE logo on it. :/
He was busy studying, I bet it's last minute HAHA.
Long fringe, slightly curled to the side, FLAWLESS face - this I admire him for -, big eyes, PINK LIPS.
He reminds me of a female, I think he's even prettier than girls.
AIYA I just like his flawless face, if only mine could be flawless too. ):
Have to conscientiously (spelling once again, by courtesy of Jana) apply the normal shitz to my face every night.
Urgh, I realise my spelling sucks ):
I can't spell words for nuts.
Having class SL tomorrow, -faints.
Have to deal with 4 to 12 year old kids AGAIN!
Walao, I'm fated to be with them, I tell you.
For tomorrow, the kids, I believe, are gonna be slightly tougher to handle as some may have behavioral issues like hyperactivity etc. :O
Sigh, good luck man, Tressa.
You need ALL the luck you can get.
Then the day after tomorrow would be class SL again, followed by Harmoc SL once again.
-dies-
Alright, it has been a loooooooooong post, so I'll stop typing now.
If you've read ALL THE WAY from top till here....
CONGRATS, YOU SURVIVED THE BORING ENTRY! :D
-grabs your hand and shakes it enthusiastically-
BUAIIBUAIIXXX XOXOXOXO (twit alert)

At least I have Michelle to go with me tomorrow.
For Day 2, I HAVE NO ONE T-T

Good Morning~
:D
Parents and Sis are still sleeping, look at the time now!
Benet just woke up and he's playing Little Big Planet next to me now HAHAHAHA.
I downloaded the game yesterday and he was all "Lame" but now I've gotten him hooked on it! :D
Let's not talk about yesterday since it ended on a negative note.
I'm totally NOT looking forward to tomorrow.
Having to travel like what, an hour?, to this foreign place to play ice-breaking games with little kids.
HAVE TO TEACH THEM HARMOC TOO, can die, what if I'm not a good teacher!
But I guess all my experience with bad boy Raymond's gonna pay off sooner or later, cause I don't think the kids will be as naughty and hyperactive as he is.
And awesome not, next year I'll still be teaching Raymond -.-
Please, I hopeeeeeee that he'll mature in a few months time BEFORE I start teaching him P3 stuff.
Currently hooked on this DS game called Chibi Robo or something like that.
Basically, I control this tiny (3-inch?) robot around a park.
I'll make it play the BOOM box so the flowers can disperse buds, then I'll water the buds to make them grow into flowers and yadda yadda, the same cycle continues.
It may sound quite boring, but I get a kick out of playing it :O
My PSP's SUPER pathetic, I tell you.
It only has 4GB of memory and even though 4GB may sound like A LOT, in actual fact, IT ISN'T.
I only have 5 games in my PSP now - Fifa10, Harvest Moon Boy and Girl, Little Big Planet, Bomberman, and shucks I can't remember the last one.
Out of the 5 games, I only play LBP and HMBG -.-
Dad plays Fifa10 and Sis plays Bomberman, so this explains why I can't delete these two games.
I EVEN HAD TO DELETE DJ MAX BLACK SQUARE DESPITE ONLY HAVING IT IN MY PSP FOR A FEW DAYS T-T -sobs-
Oh welllllllllll, sick of typing already, so I'm ending this post HAHAHHAHA.
Anyone fancy a trip down to SPCA? :D
Okay, I'm gonna install Office XP already, so blog another time! :D
And oh, look!
New episode of Skitzo is up! :D:D:D
