japan japan!

japan - the land of cutesies~
there even is such cute version of their map =)



so what do i love abt japan?
the vending machines?


yeah they are found practically everywhere
and u can buy almost anything from their vending machines
from normal ones like cold or hot drinks
to cigarettes and condoms
they seriously made full use of this invention for their convenience ya~

and i love tokyo!
(well its the only place i've been to in japan..)
love the ppl there


they are always so disciplined and polite
always keeping to the right
(yeah it might sound like a small thing but i am damn irritated with those ppl standing here there everywhere on the escalator blocking my way while i am rushing!)
its so difficult to find dustbins ard there but..
the streets are still so clean!
i found out later ..
the japanese actually picks up OUR rubbish
no litter..
and and theres more to it
we can eat on the subway in japan hooray!
why why?
all boils down to the ppl being disciplined
they wont litter and dirty the train!
i love their culture and how disciplined (considerate) the ppl can be!


for all the above mentioned
i have to go to japan to experience it myself
but way before i went to japan
i love japan already!

first up,
japanese manga/anime!



and slam dunk gotta be my all time fav!


accompanied me through my sec 4 life
slam dunk made me laugh so hard and cry so much!
even now when i see them
i can still feel the clinch in my heart =)



slam dunk forever yay!


and how could i ever miss this out..
their foooooooooooooood!
omg i love jap food so much!
jap food anytime for me man!


favourite is sashimi!
and favourite sashimi is mekajiki (swordfish!)
yummy!
i can go to jap buffets and jus whack on the sashimi =P
hehe..


and japan is such a lovely country
with the cutest things on earth!

one of the shops in tokyo
snoooopy land!

it was a sponsored trip to japan few years back
i wanna save money to go there again!


last but not least..
why was there sponsored trip?
cos of my favourite sports - cheerleading!
japan cheerleaders are one of those greatest around the world
it was such great exposure to be able to even watch them live
we couldnt even match up to their ALL FEMALE teams!!
it definitely opened my eyes
and widened my horizons!

that was me on the competition floor in 2007


omg i feel old..
and i miss cheer so much!

singapore national cheerleading championship 2010

nationals are finally over
lots of thoughts running thru my mind
i jus cant put them into words

shld jus share the videos first while trying to organize my thots =)

2nd runners-up: aces team blue~



and a tied champions this year: ntu aces team gold and wildcards!





mixed grp stunts champions: wildcards!
i dunno how to embed fb video
here's the link~
-=<wildcards_mixed_group_stunts>=-

and.. japan exhibition performance!



these girls were awesome!

---------------------------------------------------------------

as usual
i still kept thinking abt cheer after the comp
even though i have alr stopped competing for 2 years
once a cheerleader always a cheerleader
haha
me and regine together cheered for ALL the competing teams
especially those teams whom nobody cheered for
but deep down inside my heart
i know which are the teams i really want them to win
yeah 2 teams
aces and wildcards
i dunno whether i shld feel happy abt the results
because both teams were the national champions
both teams won~
i was telling my colleagues before the comp
either team wins i would cry
cos i really dun wish to see any of these 2 teams lost
but do i feel happy abt the results now?
honestly i think nobody is really happy haha
its just a -_- feeling
i rather feel sad when either of these team loses than feeling this kind of
totally sian diao feeling
when it really shldnt be the feeling u feel aft a major comp =P

but anyway
its still good
it might not be the best results but at least
neither team needs to feel sad

aces is still the defending champion!
the juniors, both team gold and blue
whom majority i dunno the names
have surprised me in many ways!
mostly new and inexperienced cheerleaders
they've shown us how much they have progressed in this short short period
and i really meant ALOT!!
well done aces~

i have my share of happy and unpleasant memories with aces to be honest
but afterall aces is still my home for cheerleading
i dunno how the relationship turned out to be so awkward
cos of some ppl in the team
but i still always see myself as an aces flyer
a fact that would never change
i remember the times when zm always talk to the flyers on msn
the times when neville n i were bitching abt other ppl
(mostly done by neville tho =P)
the times when rara bear would tell me its a routine he talks to his animal family on msn everyday
the times when spencer would msn me asking me abt my ankle
(i dunno why i even rmb this)
the times when ian just loved to give all sorts of nicknames some seriously awful
the times when i helped xw in wooing xw (haha~)
lots of things happened in the short 2 years i competed for aces
i guess i was too emotional back then
but then i think again
if ur friends cant accept ur emotional part
they arent really ur type of frens
lots of memories which nothing could change them
but memories are part of u which shldnt be left behind
they helped u to move forward to be a better person
i am still emotional
but good friends help me steer my emotions in the right directions =)

and CARDS!
u have finally proven urself to be the national champs!
the best in singapore!
i am really really really ^10000 proud of you
wildcards are really like my little babies
(but stop calling me mama.. -_-)
i have been watching them grow
from the beginning until now
despite being a social team with limited time to train
and different commitments for everyone
you have grown sooo much
everyone surprised me in every possible way

elephant:
with zero experience in cheerleading and inflexibility
plus psychomotor problem! (i still rmb e doraemon dance ;)
u have became one of the best midtiers in my mind
and of cos a great cheerleader!
continue to strive hard ok?
and keep surprising me!

nellie:
probably the tallest flyer ard
an almost impossible build for cheerleader
but u did it girl!
u proved to everyone who thot otherwise!
and i love the way u cheer e crowd~

kkk:
never thot this monkey would be serious
but u pulled it thru all the way with wildcards
from cheerobics 2009 to SNCC 2010
never think u cant achieve things ok?
always have faith in ur coach n ur teammates
look at how great u performed on 20th march!

frog princess:
a born cheerleader with never ending energy!
and also great determination
great robhsbt!
u have great potential to grow girl
continue striving hard k!

jaslyn:
known to be the flyer who eats alot
actually i think u are perfectly fine
ppl tease u cos they like u k!
hehe so jus be urself!
(cr gonna kill me help plsssssss!!!)

candy:
a small girl with great strength!
first met u at the grassroot perf
this cute lil girl came to me to ask me how was her stunt
heh?? interesting.. new wc flyer i nv met before
but she turned out to be so much greater than her size =)

simin:
one of the most flexible flyer i have seen!
i am so envious of ur flexibility can!
congratulations u r out of ur sad story corner!
and became such a confident cheerleader on stage
i am super proud of u watching ur routine girl!

joanna:
a flyer whom i dun really know well
but in such a short time frame u r able to compete in that routine
with ur weight advantage
u can be a great cheerleader!
gain some muscles k! hehe~

bases summarised:
ok la..

hehe kidding..
dun really know all the bases
but there were a few i wish to mention..

zhiliang:
my fav xiao di whom i always miss alot
who is always so emo
but also always so considerate for others =)
and of cos
u r definitely one of the greatest bases in singapore!

shrek:
the cutest giant i ever seen but such a lil boy at heart
a lil boy who can protects me
and have always been there for me =)
super determined to achieve
and of cos turned out to be one of the greatest bases too!

ochi:
succeeded tth with me e first time!
but it stopped there leh..
heard u tossed other flyers also the same height =P
but a great partner stunt base nonetheless!
really~

isaac:
might not be the biggest cheerleader ard
(esp with all e giants in the team =P)
but u have everyth else that a cheerleader needs!
great extension w me super long time ago
next time lets try more!

vince:
the most all-rounded cheerleader + coach!
we know u can handle flyers whom cr cant handle
and u can teach each intrigue details of the stunts so well!
best thing is u r a great designer!
from routine chloreography to uniform design
u r the best la~

cr:
the only (known to me) ah beng coach in singapore
noone points middle finger more than u
noone scolds more hokkien vulgarities more than u
but u were really a great coach to wc
and i believe u have found ur home in wc too =)

and to other bases esp the new bases:
kahau, ken, small gary, jayson, winston, harry, richard, wei hoe
(sorry if i missed out any name!)
u guys have really done such a great great job!
really really proud of u wildcards! =D

i can write a whole long essay for each of u!
but i shant bore u guys with old grandma story
(this post is long enuf already =P)
wildcards have ppl from all sorts of background
different levels of experiences in cheerleading
from zero experience to cheerleaders from the champions teams
at the end of the day
everyone of u has found your home in wildcards
and i am really happy to see that everyone is so bonded
keep it up cards!
you can achieve greater things in the future~ =)

now its the waiting time again
for next year nationals
this year all the teams have improved so much
i love rexaz and gusto performances too!
gusto improved tremendously
*applause to them!*

argh i am getting tired..
3 cheers for all the cheerleaders out there!

anyone experienced this before?
walking halfway suddenly you fell
because your knee decided to suddenly give way?

i always thought my ankles were the worst

cos they are the ones keep on getting twisted

never thought that the biggest problem will be the knees

i have never really injured them before

(ok.. maybe long ago i did when i was in gymnastics)

somehow they are jus getting weaker and weaker

maybe its the continous impacts on the old injuries

maybe i jus didnt take enuf care of them

xp saw me almost fell and couldnt move my knee for few seconds

he said i should jus chop off my legs and change for a new pair

since the ankles and knees are all beyond repair

then i hope the new pairs are long and slim

and can do gymnastics too haha

everyone is so stressed about exam/school/work
what about me?

at least first things first

i need to check when is my first paper

i need to print my notes

i need to get tutorial solutions

i need to start revision studying!

but i cant
i am at work =(

its quite outdated but i wanted to write on this for quite some time =P. its on xw's sms (according to nev: spoil market surprises) haha! of cos its really very sweet of him to have done all those things but i think its not very fair to 'the other bfs' if you think that what he has done is 'better' than other bfs and thus spoils the market.

every individual is different in expressing his love for his significant one, those who chose not to display it to the public doesnt mean that they did less. no offence to xw ok? =P my focus is not on the guys. girls, stop comparing your own bfs to others, its unfair to them. altho other guys keep saying that the market is spoilt by xw, but whats the market here we are talking about? its ok to get envious, tho i dont even see the need to. think of what your bfs have done for you instead of what they haven, you will be much happier! =) its tiring if you want to keep comparing because each relationship is independent.

i cant seem to be able to convey my message well! actually, the motivation to this post was xp =P. this is the first time i am saying this in public: i want the whole world to know that i have a wonderful bf! *blushed* ... but *proud!* =PpPpP. hehe. everyone just know him as the stupid crazy (plus friendly!) guy who does back tucks (plus other stupid things) everywhere (not to forget his remarkable english both written and spoken). the 'sweet' side of him is most of the time not shown to others.

[you can stop here if you do not have time =P]

i love this silly guy and i love the love you have given me. friends should know i am not the mushy sort of person and i think i do not really show pda (public display of affection). but at this moment i do not find it mushy at all. i might not have told you before, but i am so grateful and thankful that you are always so forgiving and tolerant to all my silly stupidness and mistakes, plus my inconsideration and wilfulness. i appreciate all the surprises you have given (inclusive of mega surprises and most of them silly surprises =PpPpP). but you have to understand that greediness is not a weakness, its human's nature =P. so its only human that we girls expect more haha! i really will not blame u if you dont give (even though i complain, its women's nature =P) but more will make me happy! and when i am happy it makes you happier right! (cos it makes your life easier) =D

i am getting way out of point, if i continue it will get endless. =P overwhelming happiness makes me feel unjustified for xp when only xw is getting the praises =PpPpP haha. silly. there came this ultra long post. i am not spending my time very wisely during the exam period eh?

yes yes, the overwhelming happiness makes me forget the gloomy exams too, which i have flung so badly and have taken 3 5 day mcs and counting. will i graduate on time? how come i can still be so happy after i have screwed up so many papers (almost all?) haha 2 more papers to go! after that i can forget about the results first and focus on my construction site + food feasting + taiwan trip + genting trip + maybe other trips, not to forget my trip back home! i am getting so excited as if i am already in my holiday.. =PpPpP

and i was accepted by ho lee for attachment!
despite such last minute application
when their intern list is already finalized
the boss still accepted me
unlike the screwed up jtc
the person in charge forever mia
but i guess it screwed up so as for me to meet other nice ppl =)

woh hup boss jus called too
he was offering me a place too
but told him i have already settled it with ho lee
he even said that if there is any problem again
i can look for him for help!
he even said last minute is ok!
and he kept on apologizing for his late response
cos he was overseas
he didnt need to!
i was the one who is supposed to apologize
for all the last minute applications
IO matter supposed to be settled 2 weeks ago
it was the deadline..

omg i think i meet 2 of the nicest bosses in two days!
should have applied for IO with regine or mc earlier
due to my laziness
and it was jtc that initiated to offer me a place
(i didnt even send application to them! no interview!)
i didnt apply with them
i am glad that i still can get nice bosses at this last minute!
hehe
call me lucky =PpPpP

will i be as lucky for exams?
