A few things for this post. (I foresee that this post will be a rather long one.)
First of all,
NOTE TO SELF:
HI THERE!
WHY ARE YOU ON 123HAGAO.BLOGSPOT.COM? PLEASE STOP WASTING YOUR TIME PROCRASTINATING AND GET ALL YOUR CRAP DONE.
A very vague and not-so-subtle reminder of the list of things you are to complete before you are allowed to click on the "New Post" button again:
1. Prefects
2. Homework
3. Miscellaneous

Today I went out with some great people! I had a wonderful day (though something besides my load of undone work is bugging me now. Will bring that up again later).
I went out with:
From L to R:
Tessa Nai, Koh HS and Lee Hua Ting.
Sometimes I feel quite bad cos everytime we go out we'll always suan HS like mad HAHA. I am so sorry :) I do mean it. (The apology, I mean.)
And also:
Cheryl Lim PJ!
I met HS at the bus stop near her house and we took a bus down to Far East Plaza. We reached Far East Plaza at 11.30 AM (which is way too early, most of the shops weren't even open yet) and met up with the others. Walked around, talked, ate, etc. It was fun.
We headed over to 313@Somerset. It's totally awesomeeeeee so much to look at over there. Especially at Forever 21, it's so much better than the other branches. First of all, it's bigger (4 floors!). Also, the things get more affordable as you make your way up. (Still, I don't understand how a skirt - an ugly one at that - can cost the same as a nice dress. Both were $40, in case you were wondering.) Funniest of all, we came to the really small section of the shop that was displaying lingerie. It was hysterical. There were some ugly bras there sold for $31. Can you believe it? There were shiny/decorative stones embellished all over them. It's damn damn damn ugly. And for $31. Goud. We kept laughing at the bras. Also there were some that were lacy and had a leopard print design - sold for $13. No doubt an attempt to make the wearer look or feel provocative/exotic. It's nothing short of ridiculous, though. Seeing that, um, unique design, Ris Low references started flying all over the air automatically.
I saw the skirt that I almost bought from the F21 US website. It was there on the racks, and guess what was the price indicated on the price tag? $19!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so going to buy it when I go back there next year with Tessa. Yayyyyyyyyy
Oh before we went to Forever 21, there was a year-end sale at Cotton On. That was where they took the photo (the one where they were wearing the sunglasses). We also went to Action City. Somehow, though it is smaller in size to its JP counterpart, it features some products which appeal more to me. It is just so.. cute. (Sounds very bimbotic but I just can't find a better adjective to use.)
My shoes were killing me so I bought a pair of flats at Uniqlo. It's an ugly pair but it's the nicest design out of the other ugly pairs of slippers available at the store.
At Action City. There were playing with something. A mini whack-a-mole machine, which can be purchased there.
We went to a mobile shop. There were phones on display and this one was on so people could try and use it. This is what I typed in a message. I left it there so the next person who tries to use it will see it HAHAHA.
Cheryl. I had to camp outside her cubicle in the toilet to take this photo. Seriously.
On the phone with HT cos she ran off somewhere.
Saw this outside Ngee Ann City. You probably can't see it but it spells out 'Live Laugh Love'. Which I find nice, although it's something cliché.
After 313@Somerset we went to Orchard Central and roamed around the compound aimlessly. We looked at a lot of stuff but didn't buy anything. After Orchard Central we went back to Takashimaya to get some stuff to eat. After that, separated from Cheryl and HT. Went back to Far East Plaza with Tessa and HS. After ages of walking I bought a top and a pair of flats. They were forced to march around the place with me, how mean of me haha :) Sorry!
After that, took a bus home with HS, while Tessa went to meet her sisters.
I had a wonderful day. Until I saw something just now that screwed up my mood a little. Stupid. Okay don't feel like talking about it. Bye!

Photos from yesterday:
Went out with these four:
From background to foreground: Felicia, Gabbie, Gregory, Darren Lee.
Other photos can be found at Gabbie's blog, she nabbed some from my phone haha. Lazy to upload.
Went shopping with Sally Chua today, she went mad LOL. Walked, talked, ate, gossiped, shopped! She bought a lot of stuff. On my way meeting her, my flats collapsed apart -_- Had to buy a new pair at Far East. The stuff at Topshop is so expensive :/ F21 was much better. But frankly I can't find much nice stuff from the F21 and Topshop at ION Orchard? Weird. BB bought a pair of sunglasses from F21. We went to Cotton On and bought the same dress =) When I came out from the fitting room after trying to dress on she asked me if it was nice and I nodded excitedly and she laughed. She paid for my dress. Thanks BB :)
Today was fun. Am tired. I forgot what I wanted to post about. Bye.
OH I REMEMBER NOW.
You may want to skip the following paragraph if you are a guy.
Had a look at the DKNY Be Delicious in Green Apple, and also in Peach Blossom. I didn't know which one to buy!!!!!! The one in Green Apple had a crisper, more fresh scent but it was rather flat. The Peach Blossom one smelled sweet and really nice but I was afraid that it would be a bit too over because what I am looking for is a sweet but crisp and fresh scent (lol which basically is a mixture of the two but it's not like you can mix them together). I didn't know which one to buy. The bottle was so cute too. The Peach Blossom one was more popular with the masses. But Megan is using the Green Apple one :/ I can't decide which one I want because both are equally appealing!!!!!!!

Yesterday:
Prefects meeting in the morning at 10 AM, for Orientation. I was late as usual, got there at 10.10 AM. Need to kick this habit of being late all the time. Talked and stuff, it struck me once again how much I had to do and how little time I had. A little bit stressed but didn't think too much about it, changed clothes, said goodbye to Jing Yong and went to eat prata with Jeslyn, Yi Lun, Hai Song, Brendan and Ben Chia. Ate and talked and told them stuff about Taiwan. Discussed Prefects' stuff. Left and went to Clementi, Yi Lun went along with me cos he had nothing to do.
Got to kbox, said goodbye to Yi Lun then went up. Sally came out and brought me into the room, Lizheng wasn't singing. Zhixian said "Hi" to me. As usual Kenny was the one getting high. I must commend Kenny and Lizheng though, for singing 梁山伯与茱丽叶 together:
Kenny： 我爱你, 你是我的 Tan Lizheng~ 我愿意变成你的 Chen Hong Hwee
Together： 幸福的每一天 浪漫的每一夜 把爱永远不放开 I Love You
Lizheng： 我爱你, 你是我的 Kenny Tan~ 我愿意变成你的 Chen Li Zheng
Together： 幸福的每一天 浪漫的每一夜 美丽的爱情祝福著 未来
And it was hilarious. Though it might not sound hilarious here. Anyway it was fun. Ate MOS for dinner, Kenny treated me LOL.
Now that I'm done recapping, here is what I really want to rant about:
I'm stressed, not incredibly stressed but still stressed. It's getting on my nerves. Just now I scrambled awake at 8.47 AM and immediately looked at the clock. Luckily, I'm not late. I've got tuition later and I'm supposed to wake up early. When I fell back into my bed the details of the dream I had was slowly dissipating but I tried holding on to the more memorable details and amongst them were:
1. Coach Zhang. CAN'T BELIEVE IT, why am I dreaming of her!!!!!!! And her maggie mee hair. In the dream she saw me, it was when school reopened and I'm in Sec 4. She saw me and said, "你是不是新的中一学生?" What the hell.
2. I dreamt that I was rushing through my proposals. Now I am feeling utterly stressed because the reality is, I've got tons of proposals to do for Orientation and I've got literally VERY LITTLE time (because I'm still going to Penang. There is Wifi there and I'm bringing my laptop but that probably means I'll still have to do my proposals there), and this fact is smacking me hard in the face. And I don't want to screw this up, I want Orientation to be great. Stupidstupid, I ought to get to work like NOW and stop blogging.
3. The Orientation tee. I have practically little, or no inspiration. Why are my creative juices not working? I am not particularly worried about the Orientation banner because that can be done when I'm back from Penang, banners don't take very long. BUT THE TSHIRTS. I need to come up with a design, liaise with the agent a few times, collect orders, submit the orders, etc etc etc. Not forgetting the fact that our agent is rather... Inefficient. Ben Chia had to call him again and again and again.
4. Homework! This I have not touched at all. The amount of notifications from Ace-Learning in my e-mail inbox is threatening. AND AND AND, I don't actually have all my homework because I didn't go for the last 2 days of Headstart, :/
TUITION SOON. Can't wait to see Rachel and Qilin.
