Cravings

I dreamed that the whole of Kuching was flooded very badly, all the way up to the tree branches. The only thing that I saved to survive the flood was a packet of hi-fiber Jacob crackers and "A Walk To Remember" by Nicholas Sparks that Perry gave me for my birthday last year.

Amy Lynette says that it is a bad omen to dream about floods.

I also dreamed that I went to a candy store which sold pumpkin yogurt drink. There were lots of purple, pink, green, orange and blue candy, ice cream and yogurt. They also sold slippers from Africa in there.

I think that is the effect of me not taking any junk food for nine days? Healthy me.

I crave for a Pepsi now actually but then, I hate carbonated drinks. I'm healthy so I'll take a 100 Plus.

Promoters, Speakers, All Rubbish

Nine students from some college in Wales visited Saint Teresa's Secondary last Thursday. One of them claimed that Asians do not have any common sense. How interesting. Then, one of the officials from the college started promoting Cardiff Sixth Form College. Apparently, they offer 100% paid scholarships but with a rental of either seventy or seven (I forgot) pounds for boarding.

I personally think it is quite stupid to get a scholarship that only pays for your A Levels. After you finish your A Levels, where are you going to get the pounds to pay your university fees. Studying in England costs a bomb. Not that you can leave England after all, British A Levels syllabus are different. Sure enough if you are smart and lucky enough, some university in England might offer you another scholarship. If not, doomed lah. Stuck in the middle of no where.

They were promoting medicine at England. Claimed that United Kingdom is the best place to do medicine and that Cardiff Sixth Form College offers A Levels for medicine. Funny thing is that Cardiff is at the bottom of the list of top colleges or university in the world. I did plenty of research at different rank pages. Moscow State University is a better pick for medicine, cheaper and higher ranked. Not a very classy place, of course compared to other European countries. Click to see.

I have no respect at all for these college and university promoters that come to Saint Teresa's Secondary to promote their university. Business scams. All nonsense. They talk about the courses they offer, how good their university is and not about the course itself. I see no point in listening to all these nonsense from all these speakers because I don't see how the long speech about University/College X helps me to decide if I want to be this or that.

There was only one speaker I came across, some man with a PhD from Swinburne, that didn't talk rubbish. Why? Because he was the one and only speaker that ever came to our school who actually explained about courses and did not even mention a thing about the university he represented. That one did get my respect.

The rest just talked a whole load of rubbish

GREAT

Friday, 27th of June 2008 is a day to remember. There was a TOM YAM SOUP flinging war between THAT FORM 3A1 GIRL WHO CLAIMED THAT FAITH IN GODS IS FOR THE STUPID and another student/victim, whom a teacher claimed, should have won the "Budiman Award", whatever award that is, for splashing back.

I suppose that THAT FORM 3A1 GIRL is in hot water. Apparently, a teacher heard about her blog, went online to read it and was infuriated. So, she made copies of the posts with all those senseless criticisms and handed them out to the other teachers in the staffroom. A first class source told me that the teachers were not very happy at all.

I say, GREAT.

Biography

Britney Jean Spears was born on December 2, 1981, in Kentwood, Louisiana. She always knew she wanted to pursue a musical career, so she took her talents to her local church, where she sang with the choir. She even sang on national television as a Star Search contestant.

At the age of 8, Britney auditioned for the popular children's variety show The New Mickey Mouse Club, but she was refused because of her young age. Luckily for Britney Spears, one of the show's producers saw the young singer's talent and helped her find an agent in New York City.

Britney Spears spent the next three summers in New York, where she studied at the famous Off Broadway Dance Center and at the Professional Performing Arts School. She also appeared in commercials and off-Broadway shows, one of which showcased Britney as an innocent 10-year-old with a "bad girl" edge.

Britney spears as a mouseketeer

At the age of 11, three years after her first Mickey Mouse Club rejection, Britney Spears finally landed a spot as a "Mouseketeer." Joining a cast of talented teens, Britney showed off her acting, dancing and singing talents on the show that also spawned the careers of fellow celebrities Keri Russell, Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake.

After two years of living in Orlando while doing the show, Britney Spears moved back home to Kentwood and returned to high school. Her one year as a 14-year-old high-school student would be the last bit of normalcy in her life. With dreams of pursuing a career as a singer and a desire to leave her small hometown, Britney set off to New York City. Britney then signed with Jive Records after impressing an executive with her demo tape.

Britney releases hit me baby one more time

Her debut album ...Baby One More Time (1999) held the No. 1 spot on the Billboard charts, was certified RIAA 14 times platinum (it has gone on to sell more than 20 million copies) and won Britney awards such as the 1999 MTV Europe Awards for Best Female Artist, Best Pop Artist and Best Breakthrough Artist.

With the hype nowhere near being over, she returned to the music scene in 2000 with her follow-up album, entitled Oops!... I Did It Again. With a hit video accompanying the hit title track (in which Spears definitely did it again, this time in a red latex cat suit), a second worldwide tour in support of her album and millions of fans, Britney Spears accomplished what few artists ever accomplish -- and she was only 18 years old.
2001 was a banner year for the pop star, as she cohosted the American Music Awards with LL Cool J, sang with Aerosmith, 'N Sync, Nelly, and Mary J. Blige at the Super Bowl, appeared on a spoken-word CD of the Pope's prayers (irony?), and signed a multimillion-dollar endorsement deal with Pepsi. Her third, self-titled album was released, which spawned hits like "Overprotected," "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" and "Slave 4 U."

A year later she starred in the less-than-talked-about movie Crossroads. That same year, she also appeared as host and performer on Saturday Night Live and had a cameo in Austin Powers in Goldmember.

Britney spears and justin timberlake

After her public breakup with Justin Timberlake in 2002 the once-chaste Spears began showing up in tabloids and entertainment news shows due to her heavy partying and rebellious lifestyle.

She even appeared at a movie premiere with bad boy Colin Farrell, and her many tattoos and the confirmation that she did indeed have sex with Justin only added fuel to the fire. Throw in a nearly naked performance at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards, a performance with caged animals and a snake at the following year's VMAs and a very erotic video for "Slave 4 U," and Britney's good-girl image was down the drain.

Britney spears releases in the zone

A few months before the release of her fourth album, In The Zone, Britney Spears shocked audiences yet again at the VMAs, this time during a remixed rendition of Madonna's "Like A Virgin." Along with Christina Aguilera, Britney kissed Madonna in one of the most memorable -- and scandalous -- moments of the year. In The Zone was released in November 2003, and debuted at No. 1 with more than 609,000 copies sold in its first week of release. That same month, Britney received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Britney spears marries kevin federline

Britney married her former backup dancer, Kevin Federline, on September 18, 2004, and after months of weight-gain rumors, Britney announced that she was pregnant with a baby boy, to whom she gave birth in 2005. The young husband and wife would go on to have another child, a baby boy named Jayden, in 2006, but the couple ended up in court when Britney Spears filed for divorce on November 7, 2006.

Soon after her breakup with Federline, Spears began hitting the dance-club circuit with Paris Hilton, and her privates were photographed with no underwear by a number of paparazzi.

On February 16, 2007, after months of wild partying, Britney Spears entered a drug rehab facility, but she left the very next day. That night, Britney entered a closed hair salon, and to everyone’s dismay, she shaved her head completely bald. After leaving the salon, Spears visited a tattoo parlor and got several new tattoos.

In October of the same year, Spears lost custody of her two boys to Kevin Federline.

Britney spears on how i met your mother
In early 2008, police were called to the home of Britney Spears. She was hospitalized briefly, and after that, she started taking strides to clean up her act. She stayed out of the spotlight as much as possible and took on projects that would help improve her image, like making guest appearances on the hit TV sitcom How I Met Your Mother. Surprisingly, viewers were quite impressed with her acting skills.

Of Arts

Performing arts goes with the words passion and delight. Uninteresting how Malaysia does not offer much prospect in that field unless you are willing to endure minimum wages of RM500.00 a month and sell burgers by the roadside to earn extra income. One of the people I know, is interested to pursue a career in acting. Who knows one day, some movie hits the Hollywood big screen and I could go, "Hey! I used to go to tuition with that actor!"
I finally watched "Take The Lead" staring Antonio Banderas on HBO Channel and I especially loved the ballroom dance parts. It was a 2006 release. I like classical dance not so much of modern dance. Unfortunately, I think I got five left feet or maybe those I call feet are actually hooves.

Enough Said

New zoom lens from Copal Digital. Dad was feeling particularly kind I suppose.
Tried out the lens later that night. I still got lots to learn when it comes to manual settings.

Boohoo. No Internet excess for the next nine days while I am over at my grandparents' place while my parents go overseas.

Got A Problem?

Some Form 3A1 fellows said,
"Gabrielle blogs about everything. What's her problem??"

Sounds more like they are the ones with problems over people's history of blogging about particular issues that do not even involve them. Wonder what is their blasted definition of everything since I don't seem to be blogging about everything yet. Maybe I should start widening my blogging scope to cover gossips in school, hate posts about my schoolmates and teachers, global warming, politics and all the way until Turkish culture.

Bloody hell.

Save your "what's your problem??" sentence for the overly emotion for no apparent reason bloggers and bloggers who got issues with carrots being orange.

Unzipped is Hip

Teachers in Saint Teresa's All Girls Secondary School have suddenly leveled into this new psychological method of getting the girls' to zip up their pinafores by teasing to imply that the girls are too fat until they can no longer zip their pinafores up especially if their pinafores are far too small for their bodies.

"Eh, cannot zip your pinafore is it? Must be you ate too much chocolates during the holidays."

I don't understand why some of the students refuse to zip up their pinafores. Some of them think it's really cool to walk around with an unzipped pinafore. I mean, what would happen if this "don't zip means cool" fashion spreads over to Saint Joseph's Secondary, an all boys school? Would unzipped school trousers be considered the new cool?

Blinks.

Update

Went to Carpenter Street. Best place to get interesting jewelry especially at Treen Gallery, what a bargain. Beats those plastic Ah Lian styled necklaces sold at The Spring for almost quadruple the price. My dad came back from traveling this morning, as usual he brought back brownies and candy. U-n-h-e-a-l-t-h-y.

Went over to The Spring to hunt for another pair of Levis, a treat from dad for coming in 2nd (I'm singing quite happy, happy, happy) for exam. Unfortunately, Levis jeans-hunting can be quite a challenge. I'll probably have to go through fifty pairs of jeans before I find one I like and fits well. Stocked up on oats and cranberries too.

Hitched a ride from Perry yesterday evening. Some crazy human just got into the backseat, refused to get out and later posted about it. Eventually he got out of the car after making Perry's driver wait for ages. No comments on that incident.

Anyway, a conversation happened in class a couple of days ago... quite a gruesome one too.

Rhema: She gave birth to eight puppies. I tell you, she's such a lousy mother!
Cheryl: Do they stitch her up after that?
Rhema: Huh? She gave birth naturally to her puppies.
Cheryl: Ya I know, but they still stitched her up right? They stitch humans what.
Gabrielle: What to you want to stitch up???? Where got such thing.
Chong: It is like after you shit, do people stitch you up? No right.
Amy: Ya, of course lah! Wait I ask Claire. Eh Claire, do they do that?
Claire: Of course. They cut it first to enlarge it.
Gabrielle: I don't believe.
Amy: Eh teacher, after a human gives birth, do they stitch anything up?
Teacher: If it is a C section---
Amy: No, no, you know... do they cut and stitch that?
Teacher: Oh that. Yes. *Starts explaining*
Gabrielle: *turns green* Sounds uncivilized.
Rhema: I never knew that exists.

Biography


Anastacia Newkirk was born September 17, 1973, in New York to a Broadway actress mother and father who was a singer on the East Coast. Her talent and desire for being a performer was not only in her genes, but helped her embrace the form of expression and passion that being an artist entails.

She claims that as a young girl she didn't want to be a singer, but her future career was foreshadowed by Anastacia singing along to her mother's Barbra Streisand and Elton John records and exercising her writing skills by trying her hand at poetry.



Anastacia Sexy Wallpaper Anastacia Sexy Wallpaper


Once Anastacia moved back to Manhattan at the age of 14 (after having been raised by her mother following her parents' divorce), she attended the Professional Children's School. There, she claims to have been the only student who wasn't already working in the industry.



Anastacia Hot Wallpaper

Anastacia Hot Wallpaper


Although she wasn't necessarily working in the industry per se, she was making herself known by becoming a regular at 1018, a dance club in New York. She and her sister would attend and dance at the local clubs, which explains Anastacia's influence of house and "freestyle" music. It was at these clubs that Anastacia became attached to freestyle, as she would dance to the music and let herself get lost in the music.


Anastacia Singing Wallpaper

Anastacia Singing Wallpaper


Her love for house and similar forms of rhythmic music led to her appearances on Club MTV, which was American Bandstand à la MTV. She also danced in two Salt-N- Pepa videos, "Everybody Get Up" and "Twist and Shout".

Her frequent attendance at 1018 is what led to her big break. There, a producer noticed her dancing and asked her if she could also sing -- which, as can be heard on her hit debut album, she can. One of the first producers that Anastacia worked with was O.G. Pearce, who produced her song "One More Chance". Although Pearce's interpretation was successful and sounded the way Anastacia intended it to, she did not end up getting signed to Pearce's production company.

It all changed for Anastacia in 1998, when her manager encouraged her to enter The Cut, another MTV show, this time styled after Star Search. Performing a song that she wrote, Anastacia ended up as one of the 10 finalists out of 160 contestants; similar to the way singer CoCo Lee broke into the music industry.

Although Anastacia did not win, she impressed such artists such as Michael Jackson. After meeting with the presidents of different record labels, she finally signed with Daylight Records, one of Epic Records' labels.

Not That Kind, Anastacia's debut album, was released on June 13, 2000, and has already spawned the hit single "I'm Outta Love". The album is in a category of its own blending pop, R&B, dance, rock, and highlights Anastacia's unique, soulful voice that is rarely found on a white woman. Ric Wake, who has worked with such hit makers such as Mariah Carey and Celine Dion collaborates on the album as well.

Safety-Thon Donation Cards

I dreamed that Aizat became some multi-millionaire. He paid for an all-expenses paid trip to some resort for the scouts. There, he paid Bruce and Stefan to be his servants for RM0.20 per hour to set up pool umbrellas.

Assembly lasted for ages today. So noisy as usual. I sat on the grubby cement floor of the school hall as an old retiree as the hot sun burned out my retinas. The principal droned on and on about the school's latest fund raiser project, donation cards. Apparently, the goal was to target a minimum of RM40.00 per class so that repair work can be done on the hall roof of the school.

Somehow, as much or as little Teresian spirit I have, a gut feeling tells me that this project won't be as successful as the school would have preferred. Majority will take one look at the donation card and think twice on why should they donate hundreds of dollars for the school to repair work. Donation cards from charity drives or religious bodies probably would have gotten more support as the word "charity" and "religion" usually catches plenty of sympathy.

As for a school to ask for donation for repair work, most people would have the mentality that their children are not even in the school, so why should they bother to donate. As for those who are generous at heart and well-off, they would probably donate at least RM50.00. Whereas for those who just donate because simply they were asked to, they'll chuck a dollar or two at you just so that you would stop bothering them.

Donation cards require less preparation compared to twice-a-year food and fun fair fund-raiser project but fair tickets sell off like hot cakes and money comes in like water.

Grades

Let's start this post off with the imagination of me sobbing hysterically at the suspense of having to wait one more week to get my English exam papers back. Which, also means that I will have to wait another week to know my position for term examination.

Additional Mathematics 89% (A1)
No complains. Second streak at coming up with the highest mark in class. Quite amazed.
Modern Mathematics 91% (A1)
No complains. Nine smacks on my own head for each careless mistake.
Physics 87% (A1)
Lots of complains. First ever non-90%-and-above mark after almost a year.
Chemistry 87% (A1)
Mrs. Hon would smack my head if she hears that I tried to measure liquid hydrocarbon using a measuring cylinder in terms of gram units.
Biology 85% (A1)
No complains.
English for Science & Technology 90% (A1)
No complains but unsatisfying but I shall not be greedy.
History 88% (A1)
No complains.
Moral Studies 88% (A1)
I'm too immoral probably. That explains my grade.
Bahasa Malaysia 81% (A2)
Wrote out of topic for the summary part.
English ???????????!?!?!%
One more week of suspense. My heart goes lub dab lub dad.

God said be grateful but I am thinking...Boohoo! I should have studied way harder so that I might touch 95% instead of spending hours and hours watching television. All I learned from the television was the Discovery Channel said that men will face extinction in many centuries to come. Sadly, that piece of knowledge did not help me at all in my examination.

Linda had a dream that our nation's oil price went up to RM12.00 per liter. What the heck.

That's a very nice-looking strawberry cheese croissant.

Nocturnal Creature

The price of curried rice at Thompson Corner increased by 50 cents.

School is starting tomorrow. I am so excited to wake up at 5.30AM every weekday morning and endure the horribleness of a shower so early in the morning yet when all the roosters and hens are still asleep in their coop. Don't get me wrong, sarcasm was intended in the previous statement about my excitement.

I have been sleeping at 5.30AM and getting up at 12.00PM everyday during the school holidays. Those are signs of abnormalities in my sleeping patterns. Nocturnal. Tonight, I am going to have to adjust my sleeping hours to 12.00AM to 5.30AM. I hate sleeping but I hate waking up. The irony.

Booo.

Yam stems for lunch today. Now that, I am excited about.

Marketing Saturday

Had a family dinner at night, it was my grandfather's birthday.

I had laksa from Thompson Corner too this morning after following my dad to Sunday Market. Sunday Market in Kuching is probably one of the most interesting places to go to. All the animal innards sprawled across tables, all slimy, bloody and with flies buzzing around. The most interesting scene is probably where they dangle large, oggling-eyed cow heads on large metal hooks. The vegetables section are not so interesting to look at.
