I fell, okay? Is that so surprising?
Now stop asking!

It's really retarded how people keep asking the same questions.
Everyone: What happened to you?
Me: I fell. Don't ask how.
Everyone: Did you fall down the stairs?
Me: No.
Everyone: Were you looking a boys and you tripped?
Me: No!

LIKE DOH. I AM NOT THAT CLUMSY/HOPELESS.

Anyway. I made this layout. It's super duper graphic and sketchy and whoots I love it to bits.

But I shan't put it up yet. (: Cos I'm too lazy.

Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY RACHEL! (Kinda birthday cos her birthday is on the 29th of Feb. How supremely cool is that?)

And also. Some facts about neverafter, my blog before this: Retired with approx 8500 hits, 151 posts, 27 layouts and loads and loads and loads of tags. YAY all those dudes who ever visited. On this blog, I'm up to 31 posts, 7 layouts and I'm not keeping track of hits.

Just kicking this can along the avenue
But I'm alright

Went riding today, took Maoh for jump. I realised he has this awful habit of throwing his head down then bucking, so you get unseated as the reins get pulled forward before he throws in a back buck and you nearly tip over his shoulder. Hah but I didn't. Nice try, Maoh.

Anyways. Exams are starting next week so I'm gonna stop blogging for a while. Must mug! I am determined to do well. (: Cos I want my final term grade point to be at least 3.5. I shall resolve to be serious and dedicated. (Actually that's what I said during training and it didn't really work but this is different. Haha.)

Oh and yesterday was swim carn heats. First for the 50m breastroke and 2nd for 100m. Oh wells. But I won't have events on the actual day co both were straight finals. Whoohoo!

Monday, 20th February '06

To-Do for my room:

- Buy new bedsheets
- Get a shag rug in any psycadelic shade
- Get a beanbag or two
- Buy 2 funky vases in different sizes for my table
- Get a new wall-phone
- Get a side table for my radio

YAY! And we nearly finished renovating.

My mum is, at this very moment, sitting at the other computer in the study checking my blog.

-.-"

HI MUM!

Thursday, 16th February '06

What do you see in her, you don't see in me (don't see in me)
Boy you're so hard to believe
Why do you show her love, but there's none for me
Boy you don't make sense to me
Cause I don't have much to offer, but my heart and soul
And I guess that's not enough for you to notice me
I'm just your girl and I guess that's all I'll ever be to you
To you

You know what.

I'm tired of looking from the outside in.

She's your satin chic
Dripping gold-rimmed cheap
You walk out into the velvet
Physical, magic beat

Glowing olive green
Your celluloid seventeen
Her gloss as bold as blood
Deep honey, keep me keen

Digging down the sun
Propel until she's done
Praise the wonderful electric
Glitter highs and fickle fun.

Move OVER, MotoRAZR Pink.

Guess what? The MotoRAZR V3i (with a better camera) is out in a Dolce&Gabbana collaboration model, which looks so unbelievably sophisticated. You go, D&G! It's gold and black and gorgeous. (:

http://www.motorola.com/mot/image/13/13573_MotImage.jpg

But it aint coming to Singapore, I think. Which is why I want the MotoRAZR in Baby Blue. How cute is that?

Tuesday, Valentine's Day '06

Guess what. I am worth $2,331,750 as calculated from humanforsale.com. And I swear I was being perfectly honest okay. (: Even with my age.

Anyhow. Shoutout to Claire the lovely P-I-T for being nice and kind when it comes to booking and giving me her heart balloon. Even though I think it was because she couldn't be bothered to take it home. Ahhh whoot you rock.

And I didn't give my mortal anything. Oh poo now I feel so guilty. Heck I'm a lousy angel I think. OH and I'm not swimming in NAG! But I shan't tell y'all why. (: It'll be my dirty lil' secret.

2 days to Valentine's day.

"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)

The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.

I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)

God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.

I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)

I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"

In the taxi on the way back from riding today, I saw this old old man pushing his broken down bike in his torn clothes just outside bukit timah plaza. I don't know about you, but it's these little things that make me wonder. Like when I see him I get this pang of guilt cos I know the next time I go out, longing for that dkny clutch or whatever, I start feeling so small and insignificant. I realise that sounds kind of rich, coming from me, but I'm not in anyway denying that I enjoy the little luxuries in my life. I like the full leather seats in my parents' BMWs; I feel secure knowing that one day my dad's watch collection is going to me; I love having the freedom to buy anything that strikes my whim and fancy whenever I want to. Then I see the guy and then...

On a lighter note. So I went riding today, and we did 80-60-70 bounce jumps. Daniel kept screaming at Charlotte to go faster. He still calls me Miss Singapore. He has for about 2 years now. I bet he's got some deficiency in his genetic make-up that renders him regrettably incable of calling me Victoria. It is kinda annoying sometimes.

And I think I'm like the only person in my class who watches Las Vegas. Awww is that sad or what. The show is so slick. (: And Josh Duhamel is so fly. (You'll notice I'm not saying hot. That's cos many guys are hot but not all of them are fly; so as of now I'm officially boycotting the word 'hot' and going straight to 'fly'. Oh, and I don't wanna sound like Paris Hilton either ways.)

Tuesday, 7th February '06

To do list:

1. Bring CDs for Yongjia the next time I go training
-Ashlee Simpson : I am Me

2. Cut my nails! They're illegally long already.
3. Do Math worksheets on indices so ol' Wong doesn't blow her top.
4. Take my dog to the groomers. She needs a haircut.
5. Collate names for the class relay team for swim carn, if we're even having one.
6. Watch The O.C. tonight on Starworld at 9pm, and Catch Me If You Can next sunday the 19th at 6.45 on channel5.
7. Wear gay (that is, high) socks to school tomorrow or Mr. Wolfe is gonna start booking. Like what is his problem?!

Gold Mouths Cry by Sylvia Plath

Gold mouths cry with the green young
certainty of the bronze boy
remembering a thousand autumns
and how a hundred thousand leaves
came sliding down his shoulder blades
persuaded by his bronze heroic reason.
We ignore the coming doom of gold
and we are glad in this bright metal season.
Even the dead laugh among the goldenrod.

The bronze boy stands kneedeep in centuries,
and never grieves,
remembering a thousand autumns,
with sunlight of a thousand years upon his lips
and his eyes gone blind with leaves.

Okay new layout. The model is from Lacoste's ad campaign for '05. I liked that ad. (: I think I blogged about it before. It was so pastel-esque. Wheeeee.

Yeah. So it's like a tribute to all things good, old but not forgotten. Here's to Twiggy, last year's Miu Miu campaign and Jason Alexander... Wait a minute. He ain't good.

You get the point. Oh, and I nearly fell asleep during Science today. Hey, the lab was cold okay!

Sunday, 5th February 06

I've just seen the Dolce and Gabbana ads for '06. They're kinda western country (with hay and in a barn all), but the clothes aren't country at all, so oh wells. Cos riding out the Brokeback Mountain craze in country clothes would have been cool. (: I think Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams are like, the cutest couple.

And my computer just came yesterday. And I rode yesterday too. Got Johnny and got him on the bit for about 3 quarters of the lesson. Yay. Lost it after he freaked in the rain though. Daniel's sadistic streak is starting to show - he made us ride in the rain and refused to let us use the sheltered arena, wth. If I get sick he'll never hear the end of it, trust me.

Guess who got into the Creative Arts Programme?

YEAH BABY. =D

Is irregardless a word?

So after freaking out half the people in my lane during last night's training by asking them that, I think I reached a conclusion, even though Gerard was basically the only who answered. :'(

Me: Is irregardless a word?
Gerard: Harh?

Then we swim 100m freestyle.

Gerard: What 'irregardless'?
Me: Isn't it a double negative?
Gerard: Yeah...

And so, after that in-depth, highly sophisticated and mind-blowingly intellectual discussion, here is my brilliant conclusion - Irregardless IS a word. (:

Since regardless = without regard for;
irregardless = without without regard for, or without no regard for = with regard.

Oh poo. These stupid dilemmas are distracting me from having a fruitful, productive training session. If this keeps up, I won't be ready for swim carn, let alone nationals.

Anyway. I just rode and after yesterday's frogjumps, it's official that my ass is aching.
And so is the rest of my body.
