netophobia

my mistake: dont send me emails on my new email YET. wait a few months til my mom doesnt use my laptop anymore. for now just send to my normal email..

anw last weekend was pretty much a blast other than falling sick.. friday i started to feel sick so i went home and planned on resting but ended up on the computer the whole time. grrr! the next day was saturday and our first volleyball tournament!! soo i had to wake up real early to go to sch.. we all packed on a bus to go to tianjin which is like 2 1/2 hours away outside beijing.. it was fun journeying there.. what happens in the bus stays in the bus.. the bus driver got lost and it was horrible.. we were kinda late too.. we had to change in the bus and all the chinamen chee ko pehs knocking on our windows.. christina and molly got soo pissed and f***ed them off.. (this is a "clean" blog) and by the time we reached IST we had to play straight away.. we lost both games.. but learnt alot.. annette and i ended up getting sooo pissed off at a certain someone.. when we reached beijing i went to meet up with felix, justin, and brian (annette couldnt make it).. we ate at the den and then just walked ard pacific mall.. we had limited time so we just went back to brian's place to play pool.. then i went home.. sunday i ended up getting real sick.. played with jonathan in the morning and yeaahhhh..

i was soo sick i skipped sch on monday.. haha it ended up to be the right day to skip! the day with all the work that had to be done but i didnt have to do them at all.. yayay~!! ended up just watching matchstick men and monster-in-law and other movies the whole day.. it was sooo sad that i couldnt train for volleyball last week.. my dad left for singapore too.. wished i couldve gone with him.. soo the whole week was a breeze with not alot of work to do.. oh and on tuesday i got nominated for vice president at the student council meeting.. and ended up getting voted for vice president.. haha but it was soo weirdly messed up.. mr. michael decided that he wanted two presidents and two vice presidents.. soo jafaar and jenna were the presidents and christina and i were the vice presidents..

thursday i didnt do physed and ended up sweating alot more than those who did do physed.. slaving for mrs. depooter.. spent two hours carrying equipment from the pe room to the gym and pumping up balls with a foot pump.. anw we (volleyball team) got to leave sch early to go to WAB for a game.. hahah and we got some spectators too! and GUESS WHAT?? WE BEAT WAB!!!!! it was sooo awesomely freaking cool.. even though i didnt get to play.. im soo proud of our team now.. we kicked ass~! and we won all 3 sets!! FRIDAY!! finally sch ended pretty fast and annette, felix, and i went to ISB to watch the volleyball game (ISB vs. German).. we rushed out after the first set to try to catch the chartered bus to town but missed it.. crap! so we ended up taking a taxi and met up with justin and felix at china world.. we ate dinner at this really crappy cafe place with small burgers, crappily made drinks, and a super freaking HIGH price.. was a total rip-off! oh and at china world we bumped into chloe.. haha that was unexpected.. after dinner we ended up following fee to some place hahaha.. i dont know where we went but the place we went to was pretty alright.. haha we were all playing foos ball there when we bumped into molly! and after bumping into her we practically bumped into half of our high sch right there! jafaar, amanda, and other ppl.. damn i forget.. okay maybe i was exaggerating abt half of the high sch thing.. but it was pretty wicked and queer.. spent quite some time there and then we all just went home.. saturday the same gang of us went shopping at silk market.. but before that i went with my mom to full-link mall which was a disappointment.. anw annette and i ended up getting real pissed off during our shopping trip.. those women!! grrr... i bought some stuff and after that we all went to eat at pizza hut and after THAT to the movie night at ROG.. today was just church and went to china world to eat and shop abit.. and now im here!

much love, sarah

its been a week of school.. and things werent that great for me at the beginning.. really different from ics.. anw i dropped a grade right? soo sadly im not gonna be graduating with you icsers.. =( aww.. anw soo it has its pro's and con's.. being in a lower class than what you're capable of and what you're suppose to be in is sooo demoralizing and makes yoou feel real stupid.. and it really gets to me.. cos im doing shitty subjects with geography and earth science and biology (all stuff i learnt in 9th and 10th grade) and yoou know how i hate geography.. thank God the geography teacher doesnt suck even though im learning the components of a map.. get what i mean? imagine you learning that (what u learnt 2 years ago) and being treated like you're learning it for the first time.. ya you'll feel like a freaking RETARD!

anw there are benefits like you get to slack through class without putting in much effort cos its just a reviewing.. nothing new to learn.. so i guess the year's a breeze.. thats maybe a good thing.. well i just finished some english grp essay thing with brian and fefe.. it was constipating to do over msn.. that God its over! anw my dad got back from singapore and bought most of my stuff! yay.. so i finally got the God He Reigns cd and PS's Evermore.. hillsongs one is awesome! looves it!

and i joined the sch volleyball team and met like alot of other ppl outside my class and anisha.. haha.. we make an awesome volleyball team even though we're all like beginners 'cept maybe a few.. haha.. now im sooo sore from practice yesterday which was 2 1/2 hours.. this morning i couldnt even get out of bed.. ahh! and i have gym and practice tmr again! anw mom wants on! and my dad just bought a motor bike.. really awesome.. he's gonna teach me how to use it.. soo going!

ciao!

for me to live is Christ, to know You is my life >>

heyyy! it seems like i havent updated for a while but im not too sure right now.. haha.. maybe its cos i've been online for like hours everyday but too lazy to update so it seems like a looong time.. i dont think it is.. maybe a week.. whatever..

right soooo TOMORROW is school.. and im just a bunch of emotions all rolled up in a small short girl.. nervous, excited, dread, sadness, depressed, anxious, hopeful, and hopeless.. what do u call that?? (sidetrack: some person with the sn "ten lesbians and a boy" keeps coming online and its REALLY disturbing) well i hope tmr will be okay.. today was orientation and it was booorring! but i like my homeroom teacher and the administrators are really nice to me and stuff.. so i guess thats good... and the co-principal who speaks with the honki english accent was sooooo enthu enthu.. felt really weird.. well at least anisha was there..

anw before that i didnt do much i think.. thursday i went to the world carnival which was much more expensive that 50 kuai.. every ride costs ranged from 3 bucks to 10 bucks per ride.. so yah.. but it was alot of fun.. i went with jo, jumi, and sonya.. my sis and i won all these stuffed toys at the games and stuff.. that part of the carnival.. it was fun.. saturday there was music practice so i was jamming with the music team and stuff.. sunday was church and just lazed the whole day.. yesterday jordan, sonya, mom, chris, jo, and i spent the day looking ard at the music street for guits and stuff.. i was really disappointed cos they had nice fender and epiphone guits but you cant be too sure if its real or fake.. and they didnt even sell strings in english.. all these chinese brand strings.. but at the end we did manage to get a mic stand and a drum bag to hold all the symbals and high hats (however you spell it).. and after that we just ate dinner at sizzler's which was really gooood! anw it was fun..

hopefully school tmr wont suck

i think im gonna gooooooo... i miss you all and i miss being all spontaneous, crappy, and crazy!!!

yeaaaaa i'm gonna have to move on, before we meet again >>

hey guys! i kinda just got back.. i just lazed ard this morning and ard afternoon went to the dentist and after that drove for like hours to the World Carnival.. but sadly it was raining so we decided to go another day.. it looked really good with a huge ferris wheel, carousel, and all these rollercoasters! and its soo big and only 10 sing (50 RMB).. thats like sooo much better than escape man! anyways lately i've been having good days.. yesterday was nice.. just chilled and relaxed.. oh my mom got sick so i had to kinda nurse her but i spent hours on a comfy couch on the balcony just reading.. im making it a habit to read a few chapters everyday.. well i decided to make a new sch year resolution thing.. wanna hear?

1.  live healthy (like what to eat, exercising, eating breakfast, cutting down on sugars, drinking milk)
2.  finish all the books on my shelf
3.  try to pick up my guit and practice at least once a day
4.  buy more ballet shoes and sneakers cause its dusty here
5.  take advantage of the summer
6.  save money!
7.  wake up earlier for school so that i can do more stuff in the morning without having to rush
8.  try to get more involved with school and actually study harder
9.  be more friendlier at school and dont get such a horrible reputation
10. *dont let anyone judge me without getting to know me first*

thats all for now at least.. the last one is really really important.. so sick and tired of people just judging me cos im not as studious as them or cos of the people i hang out with.. gosh! oh i heard dan left for texas yesterday.. all the best to him~!

i miss you guys in singapore
wish i can see you all soon =)

leave every stone unturned and every bridge unburned >>

i just realized that i didnt change the link for the pictures! oops.. apologies extended.. anyways my parents are leaving for singapore on sunday.. wish i can tag along but i cant.. maybe next time when we actually have a place to stay.. i wanna gooo back! oh wells.. sch doesnt start in another one and a half weeks.. soo im really bored and running out of thing to do.. i did get wireless at my apartment so its good.. dont have to go across the street to go on internet.. havent been doing much lately.. just the same old thing.. oh i went to sch yesterday to pick up uniforms.. i cant stand the british uniforms.. the only nice thing that they have are either the short sleeve shirts (looks ALOT like the canadian sch sg) or the p.e. track suit (which i will only wear during the colder climate).. now im just waiting for my parents to come back from their meetings so maybe we can go to the huge world carnival here or go shopping for my guit =).. i looove this song! i seem to like indie more and more each day.. someone talk to me pleaseee

You Have My Attention - Copeland

quiet now your voice seems miles away
somehow i hear your song resound
a little bit softer each day
from my tired heart
a little bit farther away

i'll sing aloud
the whole day through
just do your best to hear me
it's all you can do

you have my attention
like youve had all the while
since that first day when you made my heart smile
with loving eyes and tired sighs that follow
you have my attention
like a shout through an empty sanctuary
speak but a whisper
i'll hear a sermon

i'll sing aloud
the whole day through
just do your best to hear me
its all you can do
i'll sing aloud
the whole night through
while you sleep safely
i'll be thinking about you

you have my attention
