                <description><![CDATA[ these days.. something wrong with me. i sleep early (11.30) and i wake up and absurd hours like 12 or 1 in the afternoon. though, this morning i slept at 6.30 and woke up at 1.00.. >< it was bad i must have been tired.. didnt even hear the cleaning lady drop by my room. (and she makes a huge racket with the metal bin when she empties it, so it usually wakes me up)<br /><br />terrible. procrastinating.. i know somehow i'll make it through my exams.. but so much happening. think i feel a bit squashed. and there isn't anyone that i feel i can share it with except on dA cos.. well i hardly know any of my friends here, but what i do know of them is they are all nice, and nobody really remembers what people write in journals anyway. so this will be forgotten soon after its read. which i rather like. just as long as i get to write something down and try to make myself feel better.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ well, since they are coming and ive been feeling down as i usually do during exams.. i think i need some colour in my life. as much as i love black and white, its spring.. i think that warrants some sort of change in my life.. even a little. so i shall challenge myself to use more colour in my work. and less dismal themes. though where that will take my work.. ive no idea.<br /><br />my sister really likes the cutesy stuff i draw *slight cringe here* and sometimes she says she looks at it and how happy it looks.. well.. that is if im in that sort of mood i suppose. or it could be so happy that it was sad. if you get my meaning.<br /><br />anyway, its kinda lonesome and boring in my hall room because its easter and my neighbour went home for the holidays.. i keep trawling facebook/msn hoping to find people to chat to. however, everyone has exams and we are all trying to study.. >< well.. i don't feel comforted that most of my friends haven't started studying yet. partially because i don't believe them. ahh well. i will pull through this. just need God. all the time.<br /><br />to get to the point, its not exactly the happy mood sort of thing that i will tend to draw now. however, maybe if i try to draw something to make me feel better i will get a happy mood. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />ah. i will stop the rambling here.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ yay an update!<br /><br />um my back hurts cos a heavy file fell on my head 2 weeks ago. it still hurts...<br /><br />why?<br /><br />anyway i think i write more morbid sounding stuff when im tired, or mostly cos the exams are coming.<br /><br />yes.<br /><br />its bad. bad times (well not really) and bad dreams (plenty of those)<br /><br />edit: my scanner is working again.. not sure how come. i used to try and access it by using the utility on my computer, but it didnt work. and then pressing the button didnt work. and now it works again. its good that it works again. so i wont complain too much. unless it stops working.. or maybe it was an outdated driver.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ hey guys,<br /><br />sorry for not commenting on work and such.. even though i know you guys probably don't mind..<br /><br />anyway, ive got some news..<br /><br />my macbook has gone for repairs (finally) and for free (always good) because since my warranty had *just* expired, they kinda tweaked the date that i bought it and so yep, getting a new hard drive for free.<br /><br />which leads to why im not feeling so good.<br /><br />i didn't back up my stuff.. so ive lost it all.. so to speak. hopefully i can get someone who can get the data out of there for free.. (>.&lt<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> wishful thinking.. but all my stuff is in there.. sentimental things like photos.. and my itunes.. >.< how am i going to replace all the music!?!?!<br /><br />lots of it was borrowed off friends and things like that. so that's why im kinda sad.<br /><br />and my anime!!!!!!!! >.< ALL THOSE EPISODES that need downloading AGAIN! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=(" title="=( (Sad)" /><br /><br />but.. ive been able to live without them for some time, so i think its time i started new again.. after all, i can always get my music together very slowly. and in a small matter like this, i shouldn't be fretting.<br /><br />in other news, was ill during my exam period. i think i failed one of the papers. i hope i didn't fail all of them. i don't want to explain why i didn't see a doctor when i was ill to the dean.. or my tutor. >.< so at the moment despite the day being quite short, i feel rather drained and a bit sad.<br /><br />oh well. things will turn out all right in the end. they could have been worse.<br /><br />on a plus side, i have a reason to upgrade my computer to leopard OS ^^ but it will cost Â£80-90. still, at least i can attempt to reinstall everything and i have to go dig out my windows XP CD again (hope its around) so not all is lost.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ my head is a box. or a fishbowl.<br /><br />i'll take fishbowl.<br /><br />sometimes i feel like im drowning in my own head.<br /><br />i live in a box. or a fishbowl..<br /><br />walls that close in and waters that rise up, death by drowning or of suffocation. what a choice to have.<br /><br />mentally anyway.<br /><br />not like im really suffering am i?<br /><br />it's just a little downtime. do goldfish get depressed?<br /><br />i am like a fishbowl in a fishbowl in bigger fishbowls that are my building, my street, the town and then the country that i live in now. me, who came from another fishbowl in a fishbowl in a fishbowl. that's a lot of fishbowl's isnt it? lots of water and lots of restrictions. little bulbs of glass that you can see through but can't walk through. jumping is the only option.<br /><br />and only if you can jump high enough.<br /><br />i had help.<br /><br />but sometimes jumping from fishbowl to fishbowl sure gets tiring.<br /><br />do goldfish get depressed? humans can. i don't know if their brains are large enough for that sort of chemistry. does it matter? not really. i admit that i don't care much if goldfish get depression because they die so soon anyway that it hardly matters in that short expanse of time. not like i ill treat any goldfish. it's more like nobody knows if its possible. so we just give goldfish apparently comfortable lives, and if they are depressed.. well, we will never know right?<br /><br />i live in a box in a cage in an empty room with a tile checkered floor which echoes with the sounds of nothing. something that sounds so pleasing and yet a little disconcerting. a little like standing in the middle of a big space and closing your eyes. pretty soon you feel like you are falling down into nothing and then the floor will catch you if you actually do.<br /><br />i live in a cage with a box outside with a key inside the box that unlocks the door that is built into the cage..  the gaps between the bars are so wide i don't need a door but i can't walk out between them because something is keeping me in. and i don't know what the hell it is.<br /><br />maybe tomorrow i will be able to walk out. it is most likely anyway. some days i can and some days i can't. it doesn't matter. i'll just sleep the day away if i can't do anything else. i seem to be so tired most of the time, so sleeping is actually a really good idea.<br /><br />thought id just write my thoughts down because they would come out of my head anyway and if i were to talk to myself people would think that i was mad. so i might as well write them down here.<br /><br />i want to draw but i can't somehow. its like there is a vague idea of something that wants to be put down on paper but i can't do it. well.. there was a little something but it was just a silly doodle which i still like despite it being a silly doodle.<br /><br />im thinking of emtpy abandoned buildings. and i really love checkered tile floors. they fill up a space without even really being a clutter. and i like echoes and i like the wind. and i like looking at what people leave behind even though its sad. because everything has just been left behind and that nothing humans do really last. everything just falls apart if we don't do anything to keep them properly.<br /><br />i'm thinking of empty ballrooms with dusty expensive chandeliers, which make slight tinkling noises in the wind that seems to always live there. the dust is so heavy that it barely moves. im thinking of abandoned silverware, tarnished black and reflective in certain places.<br /><br />im thinking of sleeping despite having slept the whole day. my mind keeps gravitating to that idea. yet when im in bed i cant sleep. it takes forever because when im not doing anything im not being distracted from the pain im having from cramps. but it doesn't matter. think i will just take a pill and it will all go away. a pill that cheats the body into thinking that the pain isn't there.<br /><br />hehe. thanks for reading. i originally thought of posting this as a deviation but then i had no ieda what to classify it as so here it is in my journal.<br /><br />tomorrow will be a better day.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <a href="http://janey-in-a-bottle.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/j/a/janey-in-a-bottle.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconjaney-in-a-bottle:" title="janey-in-a-bottle"/></a> got me thinking when she asked me about chinese brush painting, and has inspired me (yet again) to do something.<br /><br />i will be trying to make my first ever tutorial on something that i've learned ever since i was a child (but haven't practised much) i don't claim to be an expert, it's just that i thought it would be nice if i could tell others a little more about this art.<br /><br />getting to the point, it will be a sort of introduction to the materials and very basics (techniques) of chinese brush painting. it's taken me very long to finally stop wishing i was something else and start going back to my roots.<br /><br />chinese brush painting is very significant in my life because my poh poh (grandma) taught it to me when i was still in primary school. (she would often get upset when i told her that my paintings of bamboo and fish didn't manage to win anything in competitions) to be honest, i really don't think i am that good, and i feel that my skills have somewhat stayed the same. which is a real pity. i would to start taking all this up again.<br /><br />anyway, that was how i spent quality time with my grandma.. otherwise i would be busy ignoring her. she had dementia and suffered from numerous strokes and heart attacks. in the end, that was how she died. thank God for this art that had kept me close to her. otherwise, i think i would regret the lack of her presence even more.<br /><br />i can only paint 3 things properly with confidence that they don't end up looking like crap: bamboo, cherry blossoms and fish. poh poh made me practise painting the bamboo over and over again till i got it right. i think she was successful <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> im rather glad that i learned this art from her, because my sister and brothers were not interested in this kind of art. how shameful it is if people who are not even chinese are more interested in my own culture than i am!<br /><br />and for my craft acc: <a href="http://xian-atedstuff.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/x/i/xian-atedstuff.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconxian-atedstuff:" title="xian-atedstuff"/></a> which has the same icon but different items in the gallery altogether: i am also trying out something new: painting shoes! i bought 3 pairs of black canvas shoes and painted one pair for my sister, one for my mum, and the last pair for my aunt. i used painted cherry blossoms on my sister's, identical phoenixes on my mum's, and a chinese boy and girl on my aunt's. maybe i will start painting shoes for other people too if there is demand. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ at least.. it is relevant to my life now in a sort of way. but at least things are looking up. in retrospect, a lot of things that happened were mostly because of things i did.<br /><br />----<br /><br />Prodigal by Casting Crowns. (song can be found here: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5Oe9KTV95c">[link]</a>)<br /><br />Living on my own, thinking for myself <br />Castles in the sand, temporary wealth <br />Walls are falling down, storms are closing in <br />Tears have filled my eyes, here I am again <br /><br />And I've held out as long as I can <br />Now I'm letting go and holding out my hand <br /><br />Daddy, here I am again, will You take me back tonight <br />I went and made the world my friend and it left me high and dry <br />I drag Your name back through the mud <br />That you first found me in <br />Not worthy to be called Your son <br />Is this to be my end <br />Daddy, here I am <br />Here I am again <br /><br />Curse this morning sun, drags me into one more day <br />Of reaping what I sown, of living with my shame <br />Welcome to my world, and the life that I have made <br />Where one day you're a prince, the next day you're a slave<br /><br />-----<br /><br />it once felt as if i never wanted the next day to come, but i wanted the day to end. which was impossible. still, what's been going on hasn't been that drastic. just a couple of realisations here and there. which is good. better than not thinking and running around blindly.<br /><br />people around me keep telling me to think positive. my mum tells me not to be angry. they can say it, but it's not something that i can force to happen in an instant. =/<br /><br />anyhow, that's just a little something to share with anyone who cares to take a look. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ just a review on my life.<br /><br />looking back at the wishlists, the old journal entries.. the rants, the down times.. i have a lot to be thankful for. thankful for even the worst times in my life (and the bad to come.. to think about it) because well, life would be too different without them. and let's face it, a little bit of misery in our lives can be entertaining and comforting sometimes. haha. and also i as a real pig back then. come to think of it, theres a little bit of piggyness in us all isn't there? that still makes me a bit of a pig then... =/<br /><br />i did manage to fulfill a wishlist, so that's a good thing.<br /><br />as much as i am not too sure about it, i do think that my art is slowly getting better. ive also come to the realization that i should be happy with my art in whatever *stage* it is in. if it's a childish stage, then let it be. why not? after all, when i get older, i don't want to regret and say it was something i never got to try out even though i wanted to.<br /><br />i suppose i could say that looking back, life has been going up and down just as it should, and maybe right now im feeling pretty content. who knows.. tomorrow maybe something will happen that will make me really pissed off? i don't care about all that. i don't have to know and i don't want to.<br /><br />so..art wise i am working on something at the moment. lately ive realized that im starting to prefer drawing bigger things on bigger paper. im no longer really satisfied with small doodles. same goes for crafts. sort of anyway.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ just to put a new journal on the front page..<br /><br />also to let you all know that im still alive. well.. just been forgetting bits of life.<br /><br />i just cleaned up my bed and found some money in several different currencies.. british pound sterling, brunei dollar, new zealand dollar, and some US dollar as well as some singapore dollar. that's a lot. that's what i get for not cleaning up my bed for ages. (cos my bed is next to the wall so i just throw lots of my stuff there and sometimes it gets forgotten)<br /><br />now my bed and table and bag are cleaner and slightly more dust free, i feel a little accomplished. especially since ive found various important things (besides the money) like the camera battery charger, the camera and the card reader. i am part slob, part neat freak. sheesh.<br /><br />been doing crafts more so than drawings.. but am recently inspired by d. gray-man for this drawing i am working on now.<br /><br />er.. i need to try and be more hardworking in an arty way.. seriously.  also since i have a newish scanner/printer thing.. gotta get cracking!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ sometimes i forget what day it is.. honestly.<br />
<br />
anyway been so tired lately.. i am wide awake at night.. i sleep at 6 in the morning because i cannot sleep at night. i sleep for hours with stupid dreams i cannot remember and wake up feeling like i just want to sleep again. maybe my body thinks that sleep is a waste of time, but ive heard that you can die due to the lack of sleep.. so i'll sleep soon.<br />
<br />
anyway ive lots of things to submit in terms of drawings and shit, but honestly these days i can't be bothered because one, im a lazy bum, two, when one has a lot of free time as i do, i put things off very very often. three.. well, im hooked on Bleach anime at the moment (because ive wanted to watch all these shows since the beginning of 2006, but been very good and not watched them until now)<br />
<br />
time passes too slowly. i find myself with time and more time and i want to have things to do but i guess ive just been wandering around only doing what im told. time i got a freaking mind of my own. well.. i do have one. its just asleep.<br />
<br />
oh yeah, an ACE drawing in the works. im working on it bit by bit. so.. one day you'll see it unless the world has ended by then.. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ apparently stress sets it off.. but how about if you're not stressed anymore? does it go away? i have no clue!! but im really tired.. and sometimes i cant fall asleep until around 3am. well.. i mean i used to sleep at 2am but that was on purpose and i had naps.. these days i dont even have naps.. i cant even sleep when i want to! its so hard for me to just fall asleep. i guess you could describe it as having way too much energy. like a bloody hamster running on and on and on in the stupid squeaky wheel. spurts of energy and then extreme tiredness.<br />
<br />
perhaps im just making a fuss out of nothing. im not willing to take sleeping pills.. because i hate taking pills and secondly i dont want to become dependent on them.. stuff that can potentially go wrong.. always seems to happen to me. no idea why.<br />
<br />
anyway, ive been busy making stuff and posting it at my other account ~<a class="u" href="http://xian-atedstuff.deviantart.com/">xian-atedstuff</a> some interesting stuff up there now, posting 2 a day. go and take a look if you haven't already! im pretty happy with the outcome. i'll also be posting some old stuff that i did some time ago.<br />
<br />
im trying to continue with the drawing thing.. the snow leopard is half done.. well half of the head anyway. and i did a doodle of some crazy flea alien dunno what thing. so its not really worth posting but he looks quite cool.<br />
<br />
watched Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer. i like the board.. i mean DUUUUUDEEEE the board is shiny! i like! lol.. anyway it was a pretty cool movie. shrek 3 was disappointing.. -.- yuck.<br />
<br />
how the hell can you sleep when your sister (who you share a room with is BUSY ON THE PHONE and talking.) solution: turn up music. make sure the song playing is one that she doesnt particularly like. turn it up until you can't hear her talking. then try to sleep. leave the music on so SHE can't sleep.<br />
<br />
oh yeah, i also updated my dog's dA gallery. ~<a class="u" href="http://cookie-doh.deviantart.com/">Cookie-Doh</a> its in dire need of updating and i'll do so when i can get more nice shots of my dog worth posting.<br />
<br />
my computer is getting cranky. i cant use my tablet on it because when i do, it will just turn itself off and there goes all my hard work. which is annoying. thats why theres no digital art from me at the moment. im annoyed! but that just means i have to practice with the mouse more. its not as if i can't live without a tablet.<br />
<br />
oh i do ramble on don't i? i hate being awake at night when im exhausted. my mind rushing ahead at 100mph while my body is being dragged across the rocks. right. im going to end here and try to get some sleep.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ i was looking for a contemplative emoticon... but i cant seem to find one. not even a thoughtful one..hmmm o_o<br />
<br />
when i was younger i used to dream up all sorts of ideas to do things, like scientific experiments and stuff, but now ive abandoned all those ideas...<br />
<br />
what happened???<br />
<br />
well, after learning more about sciences (bio n chem) i realised that alot of these things that i dreamt up were impossible. yet when i was small, everything seemed possible. and now.<br />
<br />
i don't know, but it seems to me that the older you grow, the number of possibilities that you dream up becomes smaller and smaller because as you learn more, more seems impossible and the stuff that you dreamt up as a child would seem silly and pointless.<br />
<br />
is that why grown ups cannot understand what the children are thinking about? sometimes children (er not including me i think) know more than we think they actually do..<br />
<br />
in some ways, children are so much smarter...<br />
<br />
what do you think?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ #yeah its a bloody rant. feel free to close the window and puke blood whenever#<br />
<br />
my life is studying. studying. studying. shit. tired. late hours.. being stupid. having too much pride. it all adds up. though if i concentrate more on studying i find that i have no time to be stupid, tired or proud. to a certain extent anyway.<br />
<br />
i want an aston martin... in my dreams. apparently there is a new model coming out.. but if not, either the DB9 Volante or V8 Vantage Roadster would do. guys seem to prefer the lambourghini, but i think the aston martin style is more feminine. with the exception of the Vanquish S anyway.. which looks a tad more masculine. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
i want to be left alone. i hate a different person every day or week or month. (ok dont worry if ur on dA its definitely not you) what's wrong with the colour black? and whats with smiling? why do i have to be happy all the time?<br />
<br />
you know what being happy all the time is? its called OBSCENELY happy. thats right. obscene.<br />
<br />
shit.<br />
<br />
i told you (ok maybe not). dull sameness. study, sleep, rant, die. in no particular order during the day. and my internet connection sucks. i have both LAN and w/less but both keep cutting off. very funny.<br />
<br />
yeah. stupid me writing about how stupid my life is when it sucks even more for everyone else. ok im going back to studying.<br />
<br />
i know the emoticon says depressed.. but im not. its just that the emoticon itself is how i feel. someone tries to be nice and hug me (erm i dont like real hugs btw) and ill push them away. then they are all hyper or all happy. and i dont like that. as i said... obscenely happy! >< but then when i push away, i feel sad after that... rather contrite.. so to speak anyway. i cant tell you everything.<br />
<br />
shit. the pretense has to stop! the whole damn school is pretending! and they still complain that its hard to be yourself. just be yourself then! idiots. its bloody common sense isnt it?<br />
<br />
yes. monotony. what was i saying? dark is nice, rain is nice, windy is nice. sunny and windy is nice. dark and warm is nice. i should be doing work now is nice. please no hugs is nice too. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />
<br />
late hours again. but it seems that the work im putting in has some form of good results. good. it should be that way. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
loves to you all of my friends on dA.<br />
<br />
wonder if you enjoy black and dark and warm like i do?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ this is a very appropriate emoticon. i mean just look at it! ha ha. though honestly im not very happy. won't bore you with the details. just that home hasn't been a very nice place to be for today. and i hate them all. they wont be named. but they have an amazing *whoopee nothing happened here* mannerism. i hate that. yeah. they lose their temper when it only seems to be convenient for them.<br />
<br />
i do apologise i did say that i wouldn't give you any details. and its not very often that i write like this in my journal nowadays.<br />
<br />
grey days turn into black nights. and when the people around you start to turn into ugly shapes in the middle of the night, wouldn't you get scared too?<br />
<br />
i wanted to write a poem.. except i couldn't write one because i didn't have any inspiration. ah well. thats what journals are for.<br />
<br />
oh yes. school is starting for me tomorrow. so.. i'll see you all around dA. love you guys!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ hello. firstly i want to apologise to everyone. i am not really allowed to go online anymore. after my lousy O level results.. i have to study VERY hard now. its also quite stressful at this moment of time because i am in a transition period. namely changing schools, appealing, and all that. i am currently very exhausted. i haven't been sleeping well since january, and my weight gain is also bugging me although i don't snack at all and abstain from junk food at all times. i have trouble understanding concepts in school, feeling very low and sad because it makes me feel very stupid. it does not help that my mother keeps reminding me that i am the bottom 3% out of my entire cohort. (before any of u think that's bad, i am teh bottom 3% of a top school in singapore. so its not that bad ok?) i am feeling very mediocre and grumpy. must be mood swings. nobody wants to hear my complaints. my friends mother has cancer and she has worse problems to deal with. compared to loads of other people, my problems are nothing.<br />
<br />
also i want to say a BIG sorry to seaf20. i know you sent me a note saying you had something to say.. i sent u an email but did not get a reply.. not sure why. my internet is on the fritz lately. and computer is lagging terribly. pls forgive me alright. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br />
<br />
thinking about changing schools, and having to make friends all over again... and getting used to a new school system, and feeling mediocre again. i don't feel very good. always so lethargic. i never nap in the afternoons yet i have trouble sleeping. anyone with sound advice please tell me what to do. i have a sinking feeling.. this perpetual feeling of falling into a deep bog, my mind is always buzzing with so many things, stuff that i should not be thinking about.. like how other people see me, and how cute certain guys are (haha) and i have lost faith in myself. i made myself a promise, i want to keep that. its getting more and more difficult. i seem to have lost my resolve. even now i am trying to withdraw from my friends in the school i am leaving, because thinking about them will affect my studies, and i will never do well. i bummed out at two major exams. i don't want it to happen a third time.<br />
<br />
feeling giddy and sad. sad for myself.. its like a sneeze or a yawn which doesn't want to come out. this repressed feeling. i find it difficult to feel happy or sad. just very angry all the time. attributing these to hormones. but for how much longer? i am almost 17. 3 more years before i hit 20. i should stop being a hormone driven teen already.<br />
<br />
i am sure u are feeling depressed just by reading this journal. if u have read thus far, a big hug for u. but it's gonna be a listless one. don't have much energy left for anything nowadays. seems i spent it all on the first 3 months of 2006. somebody tell me if i am suffering a burnout. please. i don't know what to do anymore. some time ago i tried taking tablets.. i took about 10 panadol tablets.. its not a very strong drug.. but i don't use panadol at all. not even when i have a headache. nothing happened. duh. im still here. anyway that was very selfish of me. so i will not try to contemplate anything of the sort. anyway suicide is a sin.<br />
<br />
i also haven't been praying as much as i should. i can't use forgetfulness as an excuse. thats what i always tell myself. but why doesn't it work? all my resolve and discipline has gone. im so tired!! i don't get it. my parents work harder than me.. they should be more tired than i am!! i am beginning to slouch.. can't seem to stand up straight anymore. like i've lost my pride or something. maybe im turning into a pig.<br />
<br />
cheerfulness annoys me. i don't know what to do!! i know i need help.. but from where and who? i can't turn to my mother.. she'll just come up with problems that she has.. and its true; her problems are worse than mine.<br />
<br />
it seems i have faith for everyine except myself. and even now i don't have much to give anymore.<br />
<br />
i can't help but worry alot. worry about my future.. worry about everything. though the Bible says not to worry... i have to try.. i've stopped thinking about others. like all my energy is concentrated on keeping my sane and alive.. in a sense.. i need some light to see things better.<br />
<br />
i don't know what to do for tomorrow. i am lucky that i have friends who support me in times like these. they try so hard to keep me upright. and for that i thank God i have them.<br />
<br />
thanks for reading this long "essay". i will go shower and watch one episode of Batman the animated series (CAN NEVER MISS THAT NO MATTER HOW BAD I FEEL) and go to sleep. i feel so tired but i can't sleep.. and i feel like im sinking and can't get out. someone help. please? ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ well.. nowadays, it seems as if commenting on other people's work is a bit of a chore.. i mean looking at 194 devs can be tiring.. and for me, i like to finish things.. so i usually sit down and look at every single one. yes.. all 194 of them. but ive lost the time and energy to do that. i don't think i'll be coming here much.. but u can still catch me online on MSN if u wish to. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> i'll just finish replying comments. when i have more time.. im going to start to remove deviations from my gallery, so it would be nice if u told me what was nice, and what isn't, and those will go to scraps. i may also stop posting works.. or not post them as often. i don't have the time.. especially sicne school ends later and later these days.. well, i will have some time from 11th to 17th jan.. but then.. after that, i won't have so much time. ehhs.. no more rambling. cya round guys. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Totally have to agree with all of you who say people are getting fake on here. So I gave in and let's see who really reposts this. This is a test to see who's paying attention. It serves to eliminate people who are desperately trying to add "friends" like its a popularity contest in High School. This is a test to see how many people in my friends list actually pay attention to me. Copy and repost in your own bulletin. Lets see who the true friends are and I think I know who you are.. Repost this if you are a friend.. if you don't, you get deleted.. Don't reply... just copy and paste this in a new bulletin as "Fake Friends" ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ colour personality test <a href="http://www.colorquiz.com">[link]</a><br />
<br />
click on the colours in desired order. then follow instructions<br />
<br />
Your Existing Situation<br />
<br />
Non-realization of hopes and the inability to decide on necessary remedial action has resulted in considerable stress.<br />
<br />
Your Stress Sources<br />
<br />
Sensitive, and susceptible to gentleness and delicacy of feeling, with a desire to blend into some sort of mystic fusion of erotic harmony. However, this desire remains unsatisfied due to the lack of a suitable partner or adverse conditions, and she keeps a strict and watchful control on her emotional relationships as she needs to know precisely where she stands. Is fastidious, esthetic, and has a cultured taste which allows her to form and express her own taste and judgment, especially in the fields of art and artistic creativity. Strives to ally with others who can assist her in her intellectual or artistic growth.<br />
Your Restrained Characteristics<br />
Circumstances are restrictive and hampering, forcing her to forgo all joys and pleasures for the time being. <br />
Wants to broaden her fields of activity and insists that her hopes and ideas are realistic. Distressed by the fear that she may be prevented from doing what she wants; needs both peaceful conditions and quiet reassurance to restore her confidence.<br />
<br />
Your Desired Objective<br />
<br />
Needs a peaceful environment. Wants release from stress, and freedom from conflicts or disagreement. Takes pains to control the situation and its problems by proceeding cautiously. Has sensitivity of feeling and a fine eye for detail.<br />
<br />
Your Actual Problem<br />
<br />
Needs to protect herself against her tendency to be too trusting, as she finds it is liable to be misunderstood or exploited by others. Is therefore seeking a relationship providing peaceful and understanding intimacy, and in which each knows exactly where the other stands.<br />
<br />
Your Actual Problem #2<br />
<br />
Wants to be valued and respected, and seeks this from a close and peaceful association of mutual esteem. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ warning *angst alert* if u hate angst like i do then don't read this. i am only trying to make myself feel better.<br />
<br />
sitting here on my fat arse feeling shitty and sorry for myself.<br />
<br />
i hate the way i am compared to other people who i will never be like. i hate the way i look at everybody's works of art, and think to myself that i do shit. i also hate the way that i am totally unable to express myself properly. i hate the way i think about matters which are unimportant like having no internet when other people are living without it and are still happy. i hate the way i don't feel anything and repeatedly automatically suppress any feelings. i hate the way i am always trying to be someone else.. copying and never having anything original. i hate the way i hate people for being who they are. i hate the way everything seems to anoy me and i hate the way my mother spoils my brother and i can't just stand there and see him fail his exams but i also have to let him learn. i ate how some people like myself can be so stubborn. i hate the days when i have no willpower. i hate myself for complaining about everything when i have nothing to really complain about.<br />
<br />
everything is so bloody confusing and now i will sit here and rot while thinking this out. by the time i have thought things through i would have rotted into nothing. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ well.. even though i have no time as yet to walk around taking pictures of Singapore.. i figured.. maybe i should put a collection together. ^^ to show people what singapore is like. ^^ well for those people who's work is here, i sure hope you don't mind. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br />
<br />
i can't possibly show every single deviation of my beloved singapore.. but i sure hope that you will look through one or two of these.. maybe come to singapore when you have time and see it for yourself. as i always say, hearing about something one hundred times is not as good as seeing it for yourself. ^^  ç¾é»ä¸å¦ä¸è§ which is the same thing. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
and yeah... as the list grows.. i know nobody has so much time to look though all of them, but if you could choose one and view that, i'd be happy. ^^<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ heh heh heh...<br />
<br />
i found another spider on my mum's car! ^^ this time, it was metallic in colour, like gold, or green, or something. i almost didn't want to catch it cos i thought it was a plain old spider, until i saw the colours.. i was like.. WOW. so i have it with me now, but i don't want it to die so i'm going to let it go like i did all the others (for those who don't know i really LOVE spiders). i've taken a few good pictures of it.<br />
<br />
this one is surprisingly not jumpy like the others, and i can afford to take the cover off the bottle which i keep it in and get a clear shot of its details instead of a distorted image.<br />
<br />
this spider actually even had this "pose" which i'm happy to say i captured despite the limitations of my camera and it stayed in that position for quite some time. then it disappeared. it had jumped onto my camera, but it was slow enough for me to get it back into its bottle. it's pretty happy now, but since its building a web, i think its hungry. looks like i have to release it soon. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/cry.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":'(" title="Crying" /> its a very pretty spider, and one of the best i've ever caught (creds to my sis for catching some of them. ^^)<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
graduated on the 22nd of October...<br />
<br />
took some lousy pictures.. so for those who really want to see my stupid face can see it soon. when i find a not so stupid one. i hate taking photos of myself.. but mum was like hey Denise! look here! take apicture with your friends! and then when nobody was like ok lets take a picture together my mum was like.. you have no friends in class? SHIT i swear the whole class heard that. >< its bad enough them knowing that my mum is on the school board ok?? so anyway i took a picture with the class monitress and this netballer in my class. we're not really close but we're ok. i guess...<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
toldya abt my grasshopper right? heehee.. it died so i took it to pieces. took some pictures. some might find it cruel but its interesting to me.. and one thing.. grasshopper entrails are the MOST boring on this earth! just one stupid long tube. >< how boring!! yeah so watch out for those pictures too.<br />
<br />
more pictures will come but now mum's been telling me not to spend so much time online. i sure hope i can control myself. internet bill is gonna skyrocket this month.. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ hehe today i went to look at land rovers with my mum, sister and brother. ^^<br />
<br />
we got to go for a test drive.. but this is NO ORDINARY TEST DRIVE!! because its land rovers we're looking at, we got to go though this obstacle course. it was pretty much of an alright.. but one part did scare me.. ><<br />
<br />
the first bit we went over was a series of LARGE bumps on the ground, and the guy who was driving the car demo'd how to change the settings to make the car higher blah blah blah so it could go over the bumps.. the car has this air suspension so it doesnt feel so bad going over the bumps..<br />
<br />
next was this slope... it goes up then down.. VERY steeply. whoa.. that was scary.. we went up the slope thingy again except it was from the steep side first.. and that was just as bad as going down it.. >< now i know why i won't be able to fly a plane if i want to. damn freaked out by heights i am. >< then the guy drove the car into a pool and the height of the water was up til the top of the tyre itself. coolness. ^^ and we got a DVD and photos taken from that. hee hee. i won't post them cos the ones with me in it look stupid because i look stupid in ALL pix. LOL..<br />
<br />
anyhow.. the ride was MOST awesome! tee hee.. land rovers rock so if i can bloody afford one next time... thats the brand of car im gonna get. LOL. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ only title i can come up with at the moment LOL<br />
<br />
machine problems again what the hell.. stupid thing didn't spin properly AGAIN! whats with school washing machines??????? this is like the fifth time it has happened and i am NOT going to the general office to get my dollar back i can't be bothered anymore. cus they treat me different from the other boarders. one reason is cuz my mum is chairman of the boarding school committee and they feel obligated to be nice or something. sure wish they would treat me normal. >< once i was playing basketball after 7pm with a friend. i didn't know that ur not supposed to and my friend got a big scholding and i wasn't even told off. matron looked so mad far away but then when she saw it was me her facial expression changed visibly. I mean WHO CARES if ur mum is on the school board and the boarding school commitee? i don't thats for sure.<br />
--<br />
<br />
edit: i think i'll use this entry for angry rants..<br />
<br />
HORRID! honestly im totally fine with people visiting with my room mates and all.. but singing really really BADLY, sitting on my bed and sitting on my POOR stuffed toys in their school uniform after a day of SCHOOL and talking at the top of their voices is just too much.<br />
<br />
i really don't like having people sit on my bed unless its with permission. i mean, for friends im ok with that but these are people i DON'T know at all. OMG. and there's this particular one with an irritating high pitched voice and guess what? jsut my luck, she's the MOST talkative one. <br />
<br />
ACK! and they keep playing this computer game which makes annoying noises.. or they watch chinese serial soap operas and go "wah kao" (can't remember what this means) or "hao shuai!" (very handsome)<br />
<br />
i think they must have something against me or something. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shakefist.gif" width="24" height="18" alt=":shakefist:" title="CURSE YOU!" /><br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
i think washing machines hate me...<br />
<br />
stupid water just wont drain.. and i need my school uniform tomorrow! lucky i need not wake up early tmr.. otherwise.. im in BIG trouble.<br />
<br />
and i changed machines... IT STILL DIDNT DRAIN!<br />
<br />
so... i had to set it on spin. bloody waste of money. one dollar each time u use the machine. so today, i used three dollars<br />
<br />
WITHOUT DRYER. so i am going to smell like a mop tmr. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shithappens.gif" width="16" height="16" alt=":shithappens:" title="Shit Happens" /><br />
<br />
end of angry rant. until tmr. if my friggin clothes are dry! stupid machines.. at least i'll get repaid. but the matron is SO not going to believe it happened to me a second time. GAH ]]></description>
