Gliding

I am so stoked!! I am actually invited to compete in ISI Asia!! SCREAM!!! I really love it!! Must start practising real hard now. Needa go soon to the rink now BYE!!

Around the world

I'm having a really awesome summer now, I'm gonna go to Japan for the FIRST TIME EVER!! I've heard so much about it and I can't wait to see it for myself. I think I'm going fishing but I HATE the smell of fish. I'm going to a penguin aquarium, a European theme park and hot springs. I'm a little worried about hot springs 'cause most Japanese have hot springs naked!! I really don't need that again from the time I went to Korea but I was only 5. 
After that, I'm going to Shanghai. I'm taking a train so the price is really cheap! But I'm afraid it'll be hard to sleep on the train... 
Then, I probably will go to Macau to watch the House of Dancing Water. It's like no other show on Earth, it seems really sweet!  

Taking off...

I've been taking horse riding lessons since like, quite a long time ago and I'm lovin' it!! :D I really enjoy riding the ponies but I hope to advance and upgrade to riding horses... I especially love cantering and jumping, although they're only small jumps, I feel contented.  One thing you have to be careful is that you must stay calm on a bucking horse or one that likes to shoot forward.
The other day, we were riding in the larger arena and there was this girl riding a pony called Myara. She's a sweet gray pony, doesn't go out of control much but according to the coach, she might be a little fast in cantering. Ok, not a big problem so she went out and BAM!! Myara's tiny legs were in a blur as she zoomed around the arena. She slowed down and took off again, bucking as well this time. I was on a bucking pony once, I could only feel a bump but Myara's two hind legs were high up in the air!! Holy cow!! Then the girl lost her balance and stirrups then fell down. Myara stopped at once. Gosh, that was freaky. The girl stretched her arm muscles and had a sore ache but nothing else.
Later, after the lesson, I went into the stables to visit the ponies and horses. Myara looked really down, her head was low and huddled in a corner. I guessed she felt guilty but can horses feel guilt? I don't know...

Drama Queen

On stage is where I belong. At least I feel that way sometimes,  I think I can act more naturally, unlike those snobs who make it so obvious to see that they're acting. So dramatic yet so drab.
I don't really get what's so bad about improvisation. My classmates hate to do it but con't they realize they do it everyday, every second of their lives? Gosh...
I also don't get what's so scary about being on stage. Yeah, so a million pair of eyes are on you but why is that a big deal? You've practiced for the past months, yet you're scared?! Dude! I've been in more freaked situations than you! I had to memorize a whole bunch of lines in 5 minutes and yet I kept my cool! I just don't understand. I like those butterflies in my stomach and the spotlights on me (but I don't like attention). Remember, no one in the audience knows you've made a mistake, they can't read your minds...  

TV personality

I personally love TV. They've got so much cool stuff on the channels. I prefer drama and action, sometimes competitions. I watched Junior Master Chef the other night and the whole time I was thinking/screaming "HOLY SHIT! Those kids are amazing!! ZOMG!!! MOM! COME SEE!!" Those kids were younger than me yet they were pros behind the stove!! I nearly fainted!! I also love to watch Project Runway. I don't know why, I'm not a fashion diva or a designer, I just got caught on to it. I do like the Amazing Race as well, but mostly I like to find out stuff from other countries and places I never even heard of. House, the hospital drama and AFV (America's Funniest Home Videos) are appealing to me too. Sometimes I like to watch shows that show cases extraordinary homes. I like to see designs and shapes of homes and the cool furniture, I like to imagine myself living in the ones I like. ;)
I am a fan of iCarly, Victorious, Spongebob, Fairly Odd Parents, Penguins of Madagascar and Big Time Rush on Nick channel. Victorious especially since I love the stage. I wish my parents sent me to a performing arts school like that, not the snobby one I will attend in September.
I am also smitten with Wizards of Waverly Place, it's a pity their on the last season. I love Alex for her devious personality, Max's randomness and the dad's easy-goingness. My mom says I'm a mixture of all of them. But honestly, I don't know if I'm as good as Alex's schemes.  

New school, new life...

Halfway through summer and I'm already forced to be closely knit with my new middle school. The school has a really good reputation but for us teens, it's a black warning. "This place is full of nerds and wannabes!! Proudness and competitiveness 100%!!"Yup, that's what it really says... In fact, they are proud of their uniform so much, they called the blue color, the "school name" blue. I don't get it, it's just ordinary blue.
Don't even get me started on the students. They love to go the extra mile on everything, not the good kind. Wannabes and nerds, ones that hide underneath books, in love with learning or groups of lame cliques. Disgusting! Cowards I say! They don't dare to be a little more adventurous, like going on crazy roller coasters or do a little bit of extreme sports. They say they love animals but when they get up close with horses (I love them!!) or big animals, they get all freaked out. They love all things cute that make me suffocate, they are just bitches of hell.

Changing Times...

Elementary schools over. I have the graduation ceremony fresh in my mind. I can still remember every detail, how we sang, how we walked up on stage, how we cried for school to be longer when minutes before we were begging for summer to come faster. I knew I was changing schools months before and I cried the hardest. I posted a million thank yous to my pals and sad statuses on FB. On the last day of school (after graduation day) I hugged everyone good bye, even the most annoying boys, they grew on me. My eyes were wet the whole day, I cried the hardest and kept staring at my class photo and pictures of my friends stuck on my wall. The shortest post from any of my friends made me burst into tears. I hated my mom and dad for sending me to another school. I know it's for my own good but it was too much for me.
Fave friend quotes from my friends:
"Friends will be there to help you up when you fall." -Laurence
"Long live our memories in P6." -Amelia
"Don't cry because you're leaving, smile because you were here." -Trevor

Movies Ahoy!

Okay, I've been watching Pirates of the Caribbean lately, I've been dying to watch it when they had it for the weekend blockbusters. I'm fascinated with them, their cunningness, their bravery, their charm... Everything. I admire their rebellion attitude, pirates are so... piratey. LOL. Gonna watch Dead Man's Chest now...

Pain power

Everybody's experienced pain before, lots and lots. But I seem to have a different kind of pain. When I do bad stuff, I choke back regrets and it makes my heart explode a million times. I don't know why. When I get bad results, I cry and cry sometimes inside, sometimes outside. Whenever I have pain, it never goes away. I dare say never because I can still feel the sadness when I lost my first teddy bear. The pain didn't die, I didn't get used to it, I just got to hate it and appreciate it at the same time.

Now you see it, now you don't.

I honestly don't know what to blog about now so I'm basically going to tell you about my room now. I know it's lame but.. whatever lamos!
So you step through the door and on the right is my two-searter sofa-slash-extra-bed. You can pull it out and Voila! SLEEPOVER TIME!! :) Then next to my sofa are my bed and bookshelves. My bed is the one that are on stilts, you climb a ladder to get on so under my bed are bookshelves. I love my bed, Because it's so close to the ceiling and next to the wall, I pasted pics of my friends all around so when I fall asleep, I am at the Plaza with my besties, recess and lunch in the Canteen, hanging out in the classroom and on the bus with Teri and Yatlai. Like I had mentioned above, my bookshelves are below my bed, I have four of them! Yeah, I heart books!! There's another shelf but it's for stuff like fotos and artworks. Then on the left og my room is my desk and wardrobe. My desk is pushed against my wall so there's two corkboards right in front, half hanging on the wall and resting on my desk as the same time.
So that's my room.    

Forest of wonders...

I'm probably like any other goodie teen out there (but I'm not as good as you think...) I love to read! I am totally obsessed with adventure and mystery stories. Not much for meaningful ones and definitely not ones that talk on and on about life. We know that already!!
Anyways, I love adventure and mystery. Full of wonderful things! Surprises at every turn... It's just great! Good books draw you in but really awesome ones are ones that makes you feel hunger for them. Mmm... Some of my favorites are the Inheritance Cycle (Eragon, Eldest...), Warriors (Darkest Hour, New Prophecy, Fourth Apprentice...), Alex Rider, CHERUBS (The Fall, Class A...). Man, I fall in love with every page. Ok, that was weird...
One thing I absolutely HATE about reading is when I am forced to read something I don't like. My mom wants me to read "finer arts" stuff like that. Where they talk about life concepts and crap like that... Yuck! Our life is boring enough already, we don't really need any of these! What we really need is more spice in our life!
On to the not so normal part, I am co-writing a story. It's an adventure story, about a search for gems... Can't tell you anymore 'cause that would totally ruin it. :) I hope it'll be out by Christmas...

Leave it all to shine

I've had a pretty strange life, some people will say that its normal, some say its extraordinary. But who knows? One thing I know for sure about my life is I hate it sometimes but I love it just the way it is. :) I've had numerous ups and downs, some bringing me to my knees, some bringing me to as high as Mount Everest. I've had so much pain in my life, I think I'm bleeding the whole time. But who isn't?
So more about me...

Name: Private
Age: Private
Birthday: 12th September, I’m a Virgo!
Likes:
o   Horse riding. What’s so scary?
o   Reading spy, adventure, mystery, and fantasy stories. I’m bored of my life and I want to be a detective when I grow up so that explains the detective stories. I want to learn their skills and observe them.  
o   Writing novels (I’m in the middle of one with one of my pals!)
o   My amazing best friend, I really do love him (as a friend and I just hate it when people say I like him)
o   Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Victorious Justice's music
o   Ice-skating
o   Cats and horses
o   Pirates of the Caribbean or action or adventure movies (provides excellent inspiration)
o   Travelling (again, makes lots of ideas pop into my head)
o   Rollercoasters, why are people so scared of them?
o   Scaring people by creeping up behind them or say creepy things like “I can keep a body in there.” They will have the most hilarious face!
o   Playing “Truth or Dare”, it’s way better with boys since you can’t lie in the game and see them acting like complete idiots
o   Television shows: iCarly, vicTORIous and Spongebob Squarepants
o   Baking and eating Hainan Chicken Rice, I want to try them at the same time!
o   Speech and Drama
o   Jacuzzi, so relaxing, sometimes I think that I’m being boiled for soup
o   Doing extensive research on someone, I like to do that when I’m bored
Dislikes:
o   Girly girls, seriously, I get really frustrated at them
o   Waking up early
o   Wearing skirts over jeans. Please don’t wear them simultaneously or I will feel disgusted
o   Working under a really tight deadline. I need time, enthusiasm doesn’t just “come”
o   The heat
o   Zoo animals that don’t even bother to come close, so why are they there anyway?
o   3D movies. One, they are pricey. Two, they don’t work. Why bother?
o   Pizza, it’s disgusting
o   Candy, especially when it’s stuck in your teeth. And it’s the sticky kind
o   Carpets, they will shift and I will slip. Why doesn’t it happen to others?
o   The color orange (is it named after the fruit or color?)
o   The piano, why do people like it so much, I’d rather play something else!
o   Nine, it sounds so whiney. I hate whiners.
o   The word “moist” and “tissue” for anonymous reasons
o   Waiting for a long time, I draw the line at 30 minutes
o   Walking slowly. Hello? We live in a city, not in the countryside!
o   Raw foods like salad
o   Flowers, they make me sneeze and are pointless besides having fruit
Then some more...
If you’ve read the facts about me, you probably know half of me. I would have loved to make he likes and dislikes A LOT longer but that would take up, I don’t know, 30 pages (and I have written much longer than that in some of my novels, my mom says it’s a waste of time, but hey! I do have time). I have a lot of dislikes but that doesn’t make me in a bad mood all the time. I’m not really much of a talker so I usually write out what I want to say.
Yes, I’ve tried to write a diary to express myself but, like everyone else, I’ve failed. I have no idea how some people can keep it up. 
Yes, I don’t like being normal. Been there, done that, it’s boring. What’s wrong with doing stuff no one really does? You stand out from the crowd, is that really such a big problem? My mom tried to fit me in a normal-sized box but I wriggled out of with before she could say a word.
Yes, I may be queer but I like it. It’s me.     
My main goal is to get into a good university like Oxford, Cambridge or Harvard or maybe one that trains detectives. My parents and friends say I have a gift when I figure out their “flawless” plan of throwing a surprise or secret. It’s all logic!
The only reason I shouldn’t be in my dream universities is because I am chosen for the Hong Kong Olympics Team for either equestrian or ice-skating and needs to train. Right now, I am trying to get a good grade, persuade my parents to let me go to London to study and move on up to my dream university AND learn horse riding to be in the Hong Kong Team.
Yeah, I’ve got it all planned out. 


Stick around to experience another typical teen's life, or is it? You figure it out...
