A super funny song :D :D :D
And yes, it's from my dad again!
My dad's super tickled by an email he received:
"WE'VE BEEN CONNED AGAIN!!!"
I COULDN'T RESIST! Found this link in Bernice's blog and decided to try this on my name :D RACHEL The name Rachel is highly sensitive, promotes cooperation and diplomacy, and makes everyone feel safe and appreciated. Flexible and passionate, Rachel promotes adaptability and survival against all odds. The name indicates understanding, compassion, and intimacy, and tends to draw support with tact and subtle persuasion rather than force and confrontation. Having an intuitive ability to avoid land mines and pitfalls, and a strong sense of balance, this name promotes a careful and competent decision-making process. To some people, the name Rachel feels weak and incompetent. As a result, it is often underestimated. Rachel's most positive characteristics: Cooperation, tact, flexibility, tolerance, insight into the human psyche. Rachel's most negative characteristics: Fear. Lacks confidence, lacks aggressiveness when needed. RACHEL LIU Powerful, a conqueror, devours the weak and rules the strong. The name Rachel Liu reflects money and power. It is a carnivore, a winner at all cost. Rachel Liu has the power and potential to achieve great things. Whatever the enterprise, it strives to be the best and most successful in its field. Extremely competitive and not afraid of challenges or challengers. A visionary, a realist, and a planner. Discipline and perseverance. Dynamic and efficient. Rewards the faithful and hardworking employee, but has no tolerance for the incompetent. Rachel Liu understands the balance between giving and taking, generosity and greed. When it loses that balance, it self-destructs. Rachel Liu's most positive characteristics: Strength, perseverance, potential for greatness. Rachel Liu's most negative characteristics: Financial ups and downs. Lacks compassion. Can be self-destructive. RACHEL LIU YUNYANN The name Rachel Liu Yunyann induces a sense of freedom and adventure, risks and rewards, gambling and daring acts of courage. The name has passion and excitement. One senses that Rachel Liu Yunyann can do anything, is extremely capable, and a true survivor. It is also highly flexible, can adapt to new circumstances quickly, and has excellent reflexes; often, important decisions are made in seconds, seemingly impulsively even. But due to sharp intuition and even sharper intelligence, those decisions are almost always right on the money. Youthful, dynamic and energetic, this name draws people who want things to be "different," and don't like the tried and proven. Social, outgoing, something skirting the acceptable - or even pushing the envelope of what is legal. Rachel Liu Yunyann's most positive characteristics: Productive, dynamic, adaptable. Good at promoting self. Rachel Liu Yunyann's most negative characteristics: Can be unorganized, scattered. Lacks direction. Needs maturity and discipline.
Today I drank 1.25l of liquids in a span of 20 min.
I've just discovered by new favourite drink :) bottled Season's ice lemon tea from the snack stall at Cainhill CC! It's super sweet, but super duper satisfying after 3h of dance in the hot multi-purpose hall, sweating our butts off.
And then it was my vitasoy (since breakfast) polished off within 10 seconds.
And finally we took the bus from Newton mrt to Orchard (3 stops away) specially for bubble tea, where Shanxi, Nadia & Dawn treated me to honey green tea :D Aww, thanks!!!
And also Mei Yi came along home by public transport :O instead of being fetched by her mom (again!). LIKE JAIME ALWAYS IS.
And thank you to my awesome sweet batchmates who helped me so so much with the (failed) SYF music and starved selflessly as a result (although we were supposed to have a very nice batch lunch outing).
In order of chronological appearance - Meiyi, Elyssa, Shanxi, Jaime and Isabelle!
I ♥ my batchmates!
P.S. Jaime: Sorry, my blog dedication to you shall have to come later because I'm way too sleepy.
It's been so long since my last post!
Hooray cheerleading is getting along very nicely :) Obviously thanks to you-know-who.
♥Haka
♥Toy Soldier
♥PCD
♥Cup of Life
And today's ballet was great :D Yay I'm getting stronger and putting on more muscles!!!
But according to Nadia if you sit down after exercising you get a big butt. And my sister said something about that if you don't stretch after exercise you get thick calves/thighs :O Ohwell.
I actually don't mind more meat so long as it's muscle and not flab.
And Nadia keeps on going around piching her tummy during cheerleading CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL HER SHE'S NOT FAT.
And right now my feet are somehow going through a gross skin-peeling phase must be all that sliding on the rough mini-amphi floor ): And i was so smart as to try and cut some out with a nail clipper instead of the conventional picking at it and i cut too deep so now it hurts. In a paper-cuttish sort of way.
But on the other hand, SYF is super YEARRGGGGGH!!!!
It's barely 6 more weeks to syf and our dance is barely chereographed! And I'm so super unflex and unsynchro and unbalanced D: D: D: And although watching the syf videos was kind of fun and reality-check-ish, it was also kind of demoralising ): And kind of disturbing too (seeing anorexic dancers + *ahem* low cut outfits) And one of the worst things is that none of the dancers were short! It must look quite bad having a sudden drop in height on stage ): Super obvious. Sheesh. I wish I was tall everyday. I resolve to be super commited to dance + syf. Right.
But haha hooray for thursdays' 讲华语日 + fridays' recess stretching with Dawn! I hope it lasts longer than last year's failed attempt with Jaime/Sam/Josie (and occasionally Nadia) :D :D :D
I ♥ my adorable cousins :) Had v-day dinner together (so unromantic, but well) at some zi char place nearby. Janie and Alyssa kept on stealing all of my honey green tea pearls! And timmy has this super cute mosquito bite scar on his right cheek :D And then benji cried because me and j boo-ed him from behind a pillar when he was trying to chase us :D :D Whoops!
