Oh man! National Day's coming and I really wish to go to this year NDP, may it be rehearsal or actual day. Last year, I went with my mother, uncle and aunt on the actual day and I can tell you, it was not an enjoyable day that called for a celebration. It's raining one minute and the next minute, the sun was scorching hot! You have no idea how long people took to get out of the marina floating platform! After the show, I had to clinged on to my mother so as to make sure that I would not be lost. Not only that, MARINA SQ was packed with sweaty crowds. The MRT station was so crowded that the queue went all the way to city link!
In spite of all these, NDP is always something I look forward to each year. Though I know that the programmes are more or less the same each year but nothing beats the atmosphere at such day. So I had sent 3 smses to get the tickets. Please please please, let me get the tickets!

Happy happy news...
Wow, my blog has become increasingly popular nowadays. May it be people really want to know any happy updates about me or just want to see how miserable I have become, it doesn't matter now! Because I have alot of good news to share! Yipeeeeeeeeeee
1. My new bowling ball
As majority of you know, my newly picked up sport (dunno if it's considered a sport or not) is bowling and I have always been curious abt it. What I mean is I enjoyed watching ppl play but don't really dare to try it until recently cos you know, it can get pretty malu if your ball consistently ended up in the gutter.
But nonetheless, Desmond who is an avid bowler, decided to get me interested in bowling once again. First game was super malu. Playing with Desmond was extremely stressful. I feel like I am the dumbest idiot in the world (well, i do feel like that sometimes now). How can I keep throwing my ball into the gutter? But after a few more practices with Joan joining in, I start to enjoy the game and surprisely, I am doing quite well now for a beginner. You should have seen my biceps! Solid one ok!
Anyway, back to bowling, Desmond bought me a bowling ball a few weeks back. Like what he said to me, having your own customised ball can ensure more consistent ball release. Well, he's right. At least unlike those house ball which will only goes straight, customised ball is more solid and sometimes it will spin.
Presently my new ball to you, I know the pics are a bit hilarious cos of my brother who insisted that he must take PROFESSIONAL SHOTS FOR ME! WAHAHAHAA
2. Old friend
Well, I don't have to say this in my blog but I want to. I am sorry for giving her up at that time when I do know that I don't really care if she explained to me about where she went that day. I was too busy with my own life but instead of voicing out my thoughts, I decided to go the easy way, which is following the majority. This is bad and I deeply apologised for that. And now as I mature, I know all those things are stupid and redundant. Seriously, I don't really care about the explanation. I don't want to know...
So here using my blog, I want to say sorry to you my friend! Hope you are reading this.
3. BIGGEST NEWS OF ALL
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH! I am soooooooooooooooo happy! This got to be the biggest news for me right now and I guessed those contract teachers from my school who have been waiting for more than one year must be stabbing themselves in their chests when they hear me tell this to them! Because.....
I AM ACCEPTED INTO NIE AND WILL START STUDYING IN AUGUST 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nothing beats getting into NIE. I have been waiting for some time now. Yes, I know I just joined teaching 3 months ago and you may think that I am not ready for this, but I am, I really am.
I have been given alot of tasks. Not only teaching almost all the subjects to a group of P4 naughtiest boys, I was given almost no help at all. I struggled on my own without a mentor, struggling with the workload and handle some of the difficult situations the boys are in and I can surely and definitely tell you this, I enjoyed it!
Maybe it's the love for kids. I don't complain. In fact, I think I worry too much for the boys. But hopefully I wish that they are infected by my love for them and one day succeed in life. I appreciate how the parents thank me for taking care of their children.
Well, you must be thinking why I am so damn happy right now... Or should I say ESTATIC is the word to use.. Becos in my school, there are 3 contract teachers (CT) who joined the school before me. And NIE only has one admission date and that's in JULY every year. If you apply for teaching after JULY, you have to serve in schools and wait for admission next yera. So, these 3 CTs joined last year after JULY and one of them which is a GUY applied for teaching last JULY and so he had to work almost 1 year before studying.
As for me, I was hoping I can get into NIE this july or if not I would have to wait for more than 1 year and that's a long wait. What a waste of my youth right?! So, being anxious, I asked alot of people for advice on this matter. He, being one of them. The conversation is as follows:
ME: Erm JY, you will be going to NIE this year right?
JY: Ya, why lei?
ME (hoping to get some information from him) : Have you received the letter from them?
JY: Not yet. Why lei?
ME: Just want to see if I will be joining NIE this year or next year.
JY: You ah, very hard la! Cos before you got two batches so must wait. Most likely next year!
Well, let me tell u this loud and clear JY,
I AM JOINING YOU AT NIE THIS YEAR AND I DON'T HAVE TO WAIT ONE YEAR LIKE YOU DO!
dui ah! he must be cursing! wahahahaha....
So dear friends, SAlly is going back to her school life and she's paid!
Cant hide my happiness... send me some love man...

it's redundant
It has been a really long time since I last wrote something on how I feel and how disturbed I am by certain things in my life (all posts are about what I bought and recent updates of my life).
Well, I just watched DRAG ME TO HELL last week and today I want to talk about how I feel about this movie and how I would have react if I am in that character's role. As you all know, DMTH is a horror movie about how this character got cursed by an old lady and after the first 3 days of haunting her down, the LARMIA (some scary fellow devil) will come and get her and drag her to eternal hell! Sounds scary? Sounds even more stupid to put myself in that character's shoes. You must be thinking that Sally is so bored that she's doing some role playing but nope, I am talking serious now.
Christine Brown was being cursed by a scrawny, super gross old lady and LARMIA was coming her way to get her. Though knowing that something wasn't right and trying her very best to get rid of the curse, she was still haunted by the dead old woman's soul. She tried all means to fight back, eventually evolving from a quiet, easily bullied village girl to a strong-willed fighter. You know what I mean? I like her fighting spirit.
What I am going to refer to is the I AM DONE WITH YOUR BULLYING OR WHATEVER YOU DID, AND YOU REALLY PISSED ME OFF SO NOW I WAN YOU TO GET A TASTE OF THE REAL ME!
Yes, this is the scenario that I want to discuss in this post.
I feel a great sense of resemblance between Christine and I. Sometimes to keep up to my reputation or in other word not to "lose face" or rather make ppl "lose face", I act like I don't care or I act as though I am not affected by certain things you do.
I may be strong like what you see me, or "bo chup" like what you think I am but my ears are always open and YES, I do hear what you are saying to me. Things that I may not like or words that hurt my thin fragile heart. Please think before you act or say. Even tiniest actions or words which you may think I have mis-interpreted it which have triggered my sensitivity or sometimes low esteem self. (yes, you may think that oh I do not know that Sally is actually so sensitive, please, I am human and don't you agree that all humans have some degree of sensitivity and it's only courteous for you to consider that before you speak?)
Yes, back to the story... Like Christine Brown, I care about my love ones and when THE LARMIA is coming to snatch that away from me, HELL NO, I'll make sure SHE IS BURNT IN HELL OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
A more direct example perhaps?
Well, recently I have been pretty disturbed and upset over some actions which I deem as redundant. I feel as though my biggest nightmare is coming back. In my heart, friends mean alot to me. I am a smart girl, I know your intention. Afterall, didn't people always say once bitten twice shy? I am not interested in your temptress scheme and neither is my other half. You can save yourself the trouble. To you, it may be a way to boost your low self esteem by putting me down but for me, IT'S TRULY HURTING. The reason why I am not confronting you, is because I still treasure you as my friend and please don't take me and my patience for granted. Of course, I know you are going to shrug it off and say that I am overeacting. For I am not! You won't fully understand what I am going through but I do pray that no one ever does that to you. I am very happy now with a supportive family and caring boyfriend and I seek your blessing not disturbance.
So here I am, SHOUTING OUT TO YOU, FOR GOD's SAKE, I WILL NOT ALLOW HISTORY TO REPEAT ITSELF! I HOPE YOU READ THIS AND PUT AN END TO WHAT YOU ARE DOING OR WHATEVER YOU WILL BE DOING IN THE FUTURE.
I am not going to name people in this post. There's too many to count. Too many people and too many incidents and I hope you will reflect on what you do. Afterall, I still care too much and I do not want to pinpoint to hurt you too. At least I know I am thinking before I act, not like you.
You hurt me once but no more. I am going to be FIERCE this time round! Like what TYRA BANKS always says in her shows, FIERCE!
ROAR!
So a challenge to all the evil-doers out there, 放马过来!

Braces
Some of you took so long to figure out what I did to myself! Haiz so disappointing! haha... Ok, as some of you may know, I am not very satisfied with my teeth.. I always hope for the perfect smile.. You know? Those Jennifer Aniston kind where you can smile with your teeth showing or just a slight smile.. For me, I can only smile with my teeth showing cos of my two protruding front teeth. But nvm, now giving me a chance to correct that, I would definitely jump at this golden opportunity!
It's only a matter of time i get my braces done. Hopefully, afetr this, I will be able to pronounce certain words clearly, smile beautifully and become more confident!
Well to date, I have only my upper jaw's braces done. And I can assure you, it is a painful process esp during the extraction. Not because I'm a coward but the anathestic which the dentist gave me start to go off after spending so much time putting on the brackets (btw, the extraction is done after the putting on of brackets). When he pulled out the first tooth, i can feel the whole process man! The friction between the tooth and flesh, the nerves and lastly, before he pulled out, he will use a tool which works like a screwdriver that will help to dislodge the tooth from its surrounding teeth. SO I CAN BLOODY HELL FEEL HOW HE PULLED DOWN MY TOOTH BEFORE HE PLUCKED IT OUT!
I did not know this can take so long and despite the pain, I am already trying to cooperate by not stopping him to complain. Instead I am cursing under my breath at how stubborn my tooth was (die die dun wan come out). Instead of thanking me, he scolded me by saying that i am too tense! WTH!
Finally i couldnt take it and asked him to stop HE gave me one more injection and i stopped feeling the pain. Surprisely, i feel nothing for the extraction of the other tooth. Boy, you guys must really take a look at what he got out from my mouth! The teeth are soooooooooooooo deeply rooted to my gums. The roots are so long and sharp!
