3:44 PM

I broke my sleeping record yesterday! Slept at 5am.haha.My sisters and I were watching princess hours, the last few parts. It was so heartbreaking but at the same time, very sweet. I almost cried though, when they finally become close but had to be separated from each other cuz Xin was framed for setting the fire in the palace and Caijing was made to go overseas for her own safety.Being awake at 5am can do strange things to you, your mind will like suddenly have a mind of its own. I need to think up of farewell presents to give to the juniors!
Went out with Jie on Friday to Suntec and after we ate lunch, we went to the aracade! It was pretty fun la, Jie beat me in the car game, by 8 seconds! Haha�then we went to play the shooting hoops game. Oh ya, we also play the drums,very nice! Jie was pretty pro at it and she gathered quite a crowd. Now, for the best part, we went to play some sweet machine thingy where you can get sweets and like Jie won the miracle Jackpot! A huge stuffed Eeyore. So cute! We wanted to stay longer but then Jie wanted to hide the Eeyore,if not she will get into trouble so we went home at around 5+pm bah.
My family is a foreign territory that I try not to get involved in, too many feuds for me to understand, too many things unspoken and it way too complicated. There is also way too many different views. My mum sees CCA as only as a CCA.In other word, a minimal amount of commitment into it is allowed and no strings attached into it. I, on the other hand, see it as a very important part of my life. If I wasn�t in guides, I think I will be like very rebellious and like I would have quitted school a long time ago. And she wonders why I rather miss a dinner with my relatives who visit Singapore then miss a campfire. Now, after she attack me,she attack my sister on being on student council and being a guides CL. She just doesn�t get IT that we get more rewards(physically and emotionally,mind you) at guides, rather then at home where there is always some sort of conflict going on(not within the immediate one la). Whenever I choose my friends over my family, she will say that they don�t give me food and shelter that sorta stuff. The thing is, yes, she provide me with the material goods and so on and so forth but she emotionally short change me with all the attention focused on my youngest sister,at least my friends won�t do that. Like ms lee, my ballet teacher four years ago,she seem to like eager to get rid of me once and for all. Why would I want to open up to these kind of people who want to get rid of me? In guides, I am like a totally different person,people kinda accept me there,you know? So,I learnt how to let go there.
