"The best has yet to come."

I don't know what I'm here for.
hmm.

grrrrr.

"The best has yet to come."

the post that fueled my irritance:
"i'm so jealous! the high school is exactly like in the movies..! o.0 i'm SO signing up next year."
sweat. times a million.
the student exchange program is so much more than just seeing beckham or "getting special treatment"
"I also wanna go see Beckham! I also wanna eat in class! I also wanna play beach soccer! I also wanna go LA! I also wanna meet new ppl! I also wanna have special treatment in high school! I also wanna have my own locker! I also wanna have foster family! I also wanna wear shoe in the house! I also wanna go for student exchange program! But too bad im not 17 anymore... huhu! Anyways, it's a brilliant idea to have Qi as the host to bring us to this amazingly, exciting & interesting adventure ;D"
=.=
It's bout spreading peace, intercultural exchange,
knowing how you can play a part in cultivating peace and understanding among countries.
It's about growth as a person, independence,
and the courage to go where ppl dare not.
Breaking stereotypes and clearing misconceptions as well as misunderstandings.
It's about showing the world what Malaysia has to offer.
so many other things than just "having fun"
that's just a bonus.
I landed in Arkansas,
where I didn't get to see anybody famous, or try weed, or go to parties, or get an Ipod or a laptop.
heck I couldn't even sleep past my curfew of ten at night.
and yet I had the best 6 months of my life.
the experiences you get are priceless.

I'm not trying to put down these guys.
technically it's not their fault for getting that impression from the show.
neither am I condemning the show or 8tv.
this show will promote AFS and the YES program and let ppl know of it's existence.
I guess these are just rantings from a returnee
who experienced so much more than what was portrayed on television.

ps: jo got to go and see beckham because 8tv paid. one ticket (I assume) costs bout
300$. still considering to apply? LOL.

constipation.

"The best has yet to come."

will forever haunt me.
grrr.
I still don't know how to get a chat box up on my blog. any ideas?
a week till exam.
*pukes*
dalat international school, dec 6.
bout a month to prepare.
grrrr.
I've started doing that for some reason. lol
tmr last day of vege-eating!
this year I'm doing the last day.
next year: last 3 days.
UGH. BLEAGH. PUKES.
actually that's to my exams, not vege eating.
printing letters of absence is a waste of time. and money. and ink.
and I just wasted two pages due to typos.
will I ever change. LOL.
you know, during my chem exp for STPM,
I made an effort to be extra careful.
I broke a pipette and a filter funnel.
I changed pipettes before that too. that was a good pipette that I broke. LOL
and my paper flew away so I wasted more time.
I swear,
one day,
I'll not be clumsy.
I'll see when that day will come. ;)

Let's see.

2008-10-04T07:51:00.000-07:00

"The best has yet to come."

She feeds me food.
I wear her ring.
I put my arm around her shoulder.
We wear matching necklaces.
She pays stuff for me.

yup.
If ppl observed us all the way, they would think we were a couple.
but there's a line we never cross.
that makes all the difference. =)
eagle eye? awesomeness.
Shia's the man. and my secret husband.
XD

3rd Oct was really ...nice.
it's been too long since we four were together again.
even though it was for only 2 hours.
we saw this thai scary movie bout this girl who reenacted crime scenes for the cops.
sue and I'd rather be strippers. xD
the literal translation of subtitles made it funny instead of scary.
talk bout potong steam. x)
tiramisu cake which was overloaded with coffee powder.
we ate a piece anyways. =)

sue gave me a present that honestly made me REALLY happy. xDD
I've always wanted one.
ppl usually get one from their boyfriends.
that's why this is extra special.
it's from my best friend.
someone I know will never leave.
it's hard to find people with that kind of security.

M: are we still best friends?
T: yeah, of course!

sometimes it's hard to tell.

thank you.
for this, today,
for everything before and after.
I'll always love you. =)

Mamma Mia!

2008-09-30T03:34:00.000-07:00

"The best has yet to come."

it. was. awesome!
XD
go treat yourself to that movie.
and don't talk during the movie like some idiot in the row before us.
=.=
the brunette bridesmaid is really pretty.
whoo hoo.
was worth 7 bucks.

next up?

that's the best movie poster I could find of the movie. lol.

down, down, down.
I wonder what I'm waiting for.

bleh.

2008-09-28T09:50:00.000-07:00

"The best has yet to come."

it's horrible when you've wasted time.
it's even more horrible when you waste time knowing you're out of it.
people : my biggest distraction.
comp: my second biggest.
grrr.

so. the food at TGIF was awesome!
.cookies and cream.
.lamb with mint sauce.
WAHAHHAHA.
the bonding was priceless.
the rest was just a bonus.
Andrew, Jo, and Syera. =)
thanks.
I'll always miss you guys.

Lack of communication between me and my best friends.
.I'm sorry.
but tertiary education calls for more of us.
time for the real test.

I'm not giving enough.
constant will power is what I need.

fuck the world.
you and I; we are one.

Ugh.

2008-09-20T20:26:00.000-07:00

"The best has yet to come."

I've a constant urge to puke now.
awesome.
hatred; turn it to passion.
mistake.
work.
future.
bleh.
the moment has passed;
I'm tired of waiting.

gym.

2008-09-17T04:35:00.000-07:00

"The best has yet to come."

my best friend is gymming right now.
awesomeness. xD
I find it mean when you use your blog intentionally to hurt others.
that's not nice.
but oh well.
there are mean ppl out there.
boooo to studying.
but at least it reduces risks of Alzheimer's.
okaaaaayyyy. LOL.
19th oct.
can't wait!
david archie's song 'crush' is soo nice!
whoo hoo.

you've flown away. it's probably for the best.
but I wonder when's my next time.
I don't have much luck with these things.
*crosses fingers*

Insects.

2008-09-15T06:38:00.000-07:00

"The best has yet to come."

So.
the whole weekend.
could've spent a lot of hours studying.
but noooo.
I spent two days looking for insects.
why would one waste such precious time?
BIO.
a three-letter word that leads to a five-letter word:
DEATH.
okay I'm being dramatic. and ironic. xD
so sue, jo and I went to botanical garden.
for two hours.
we caught:
a butterfly.
a tiny one at that.
=.=
goodness grief.
in the end my mum bought a RM5 grasshopper.

reunion was extremely fun!
we played taboo which is always hilarious.
thanks to jo-wyee, we, Group A, rocked!

first day of being probationary prefect.
"since when she became prefect wan?"
and irritated stares.
as usual.
prefects are always hated.
I would know,
I was one and I was a regular student.
I hated prefects.
and now I've joined the dark side. lol.
all for points.
wish me luck. tata.

cintan mee.

2008-09-12T07:05:00.000-07:00

"The best has yet to come."

oh, now I know why d.
cintan mee, ruski, and hokkien mee.
NO MORE.
hmph.

you know, if you ever receive messages from ppl telling you something like
"I love you"
"take care"
"thank you"
or even one of those silly messages which tell you you're an angel and send it on to other 5 ppl you care about.
not even messages,
daily utterances that involve words like that.
do them a favour,
and tell them thanks.
or something to let them know it mattered.
take 5 min out of your busy lifestyle,
and say "thank you".
it's nice to be acknowledged,
and it's tiring to try continuously without knowing if it matters.
It's tiring to put your heart out there.
[untargeted at anyone; ranting due to experience and observation]
Grr.

you think you're all grown up and matured,
till you talk to someone older than you, who's views open your eyes and mind.
then you don't think that way anymore.

a meet-up in Jeslyn's house tmr. hehehe.
cintan mee and taboo.
we'll see how it goes! xP

body.

2008-09-10T04:47:00.000-07:00

A human being contains 5 liters of blood, 6 pounds of skin, 206 bones, 600 muscles, and 35 million glands. It takes a human body more than 25 years of life to grow such things. But one man actually believes he can rid himself of every single piece of human flesh by just using straight scissors and a small surgical blade. And he is going to prove it.

I know. sounds crazy eh?
looks pretty cool.
I wana watch!
and scare myself to death.
as usual.
lol.
I'm still suffering from the repercussions of rewatching shutter.
and technically I didn't even see the scary part.
T.T
my mom just watched the trailer with me. I closed an eye.
so I don't know what's going on. lol.
I'm such a chicken.
oh well. lol.

too obstinate, too vocal, deaf by choice and never learning.
don't listen to others, be true to yourself.
listen to others, you're not always right.
=.=
talk about clear directions.
I don't know who I am, who to be.
lost, confused.

confusion is a beautiful place.
LOL.

2008-08-15T18:11:00.000-07:00

I know we're not the kind of friends who are "in tune" with each other (for you have yours and I have mine). but despite the differences, I'm glad we're still best friends. Hence, the brown and white shell (sorta like yin and yang =])

SO. Bio camp was a blast! I had so much fun. we met so many nice people. and hiking the hill is so much FUN! lucky tak kena leeches. but my teacher told me this really frightening story bout kangkung. which I probably won't eat from now on. oh that reminds me, I need to tell my grandma the story so that she cooks it right. heh. I got a mixer and a blender, compliments from winning a bowling comp. yeah I know. I never did play well and suddenly won prizes pula. funny la. and they gave us a free sleeping bag, mosquito net, bag, shirt and band. the sleeping bag and mosquito were really an extra, we didn't expect to be given those. THANKS MR. FONG! XD XD
Special thanks to:
Encik yusuf: batman.
Mr.Pang: birdman
Cikgu Nasir and Mr. Jinis: treemenn
Pak Sani and Unung the orang asli: plotting people
the cooks
the renjers
JPPP
already mentioned Mr. Fong

ahh bio camp. will miss it so. lol. and tmr I'm leaving for another in KL. let's see how that goes.

WALL E! my bro say nice. have to book today. actually its quite expensive to watch la. but its so cute. hmm. apala. all fully booked. can always risk the chance of going there 45 min before time. LOL. I dunno la.

a lot of insect bites on me la. aiyo. zambuk is my new best friend. heh.

I'm always tired. any suggestions on how to keep awake? =.=

Phieneas and Ferb! brb. hehehe.

Prologue.

2008-08-05T09:14:00.000-07:00

yo, yo yiggity yo! finally back in Malaysia; where the food is awesome, friends are familiar, and the weather is hot and humid. ...yeah I'm not so thrilled bout the last part. Back in form 6: not so good. Catching up on a month's workload is almost never fun. lol. Hey, I'm Sherilyn, an aspiring pharmacist who's currently working her butt off in L6S3 and trying to enjoy school life as well.

(2)My little idiosyncrasies make me, me. Things like shedded hair drives me crazy and cute babies obtain my absolute attention! Cute-chubby-sweet-innocent-little-things; what's not to like. (the stares from the parents are sometimes pretty un-welcoming. heh.) Everyone has their little quirks which set them apart from everybody else. Like the fact that I'm checked out half the time and 'huh?" is my second most uttered word. Phineas and Ferb cracks me up. (name of a Disney show, not a cereal brand) did I mention I was random? lol. The three F's which are family, friends, and food are of extreme importance to me. Yes you read right. Food. lol.

(4) I would say being able to speak expressively would be my creative talent. Snigger all you want, but mark my words, they do help. Especially during spontaneous presentations (like delivering one at the Malaysian embassy without previous notice) and definitely in my MUET exam in the future. I remember this talent helping me join a story-telling competition when I was twelve, choral speaking when I was fourteen, and being a speaker for Project Warga when I was 15 (technically I spoke two lines because the time ran out. but hey, it helped) and taking part in a drama competition in Form 4. It definitely helps in gaining new friends and cracking jokes. Ooohhh yeaaahh. xD

As for the 'finally back in Malaysia' part, (if anyone was wondering) I was hoisted away six months ago for the YES student-exchange program to stay for six months in the US. I know what you guys are thinking. 6 months in the US without parent supervision? AWESOME! but you could not be more wrong.

"we're gonna meet the President right?", "NYC here I come!!", "cheers to all-night parties!"

...right. my butt landed in Arkansas (which I honestly didn't know it was a state, I thought it was a part of Texas. but all was good, it was a common misconception.) where I stayed with a 65-year old host mum with no host dad nor host siblings. all activity ended at 9 and I slept at 10. Every.Single.Night. lol. except maybe one or two nights where I stayed at my other exchange student friend from

Norway

's (Hey, Natalie!) house.

hey it wasn't all bad though. Even though I slept early and couldn't ride with teenagers which sorta crippled my outing plans, all was good. I had an awesome coordinator who helped me in any way I can. Plus, she took me bargain shopping!(ever got chic accessories for a buck?) Lakes were an abundance where I stayed. Meaning implied = SKIING! and wakeboarding and all that. Well, I got the chance to attempt those things! (key word being attempt. I tried 5 times and could not get on the skis =.=) I even got to experience SNOW! xD oh that was fun.(5) I remember my best day ever: snow day! School was closed due to snow issues. I spent the whole day making a snowman and having a snowball fight with 9 year old across the street! He totally kicked my butt. He has extremely good aiming for a 9 year old. (then again, my aiming's totally bad for a 17 year old so maybe he seemed greater than usual). I had so much fun that day. I miss that kid. lol. A simple day you might say; but sometimes simplicity is best for everyone. We speak so much of enjoying simple things in life, but do we practise what we preach?

If anything were to change you, 6 months away in a foreign country would. (1)That's probably my one and only alter ego: the mature side. Or I would say the sombre side. Being bubbly and happy is something I portray in everyday life; however, not many would know the other side of me. The part that observes human nature, world tragedies and life-changing phenomena. The part that believes that everyone's good somehow, that what goes around comes around, and truly believes that love is suppose to grow instead of fade with time. Naivety, would be the word used by some to describe me sometimes. But is being all-knowing all that great?

(6)On a lighter note, losing money sucks. My friend has lost RM800 before just by dropping her purse. Yeah I think that hit her close to home. Personally, I've been pretty fortunate. if I find RM50 randomly flying about, I'd definitely donate it to the nearest temple or charity organization as soon as possible. It'd take forever to find it's original owner and besides, who would reject a free RM50 bill? You wouldn't know who to believe. Putting it to good use would be the best idea (not by me, of course, that would be immoral). RM50 could buy some children some books for school purposes or someone's eyedrops. I know what you're thinking. Who would think RM50 could make such a difference? Most people could blow off RM50 on a cute top, or the latest cellphone cover.

Anywho. (3)Vibrant+Passionate+Temperamental = Red = Me! (Unfortunately, my favourite colour blue doesn't describe me at all. Cool, calm, serene? The total opposite.) (7)When I get passionate about something, I give it my all. Take cheerleading for example. Synchronization of dance with crazy stunts: no sport could be better. I was in it for two years. Training and drilling my team was tiring but extremely rewarding especially when we won third on our first try! hah. newbies aren't so bad. (a lot of temper was thrown before to achieve perfection, but that's besides the point). Another reason why red describes me best: my temper. My juniors know: never mess with the captain when you've just finished performing the routine and she does not have a happy look on her face. However, all is well. When the routine gets in place and everyone's on the same timing, you have NO idea how good it feels. Being out there on the stage, engaging the crowd with our cheeky smiles and extensive routine; the feeling is...indescribable. It was too bad I couldn't be there this year as I was away in the states. But rest assured, I will be back in the following years to give them as much support as I can, in any way that I can. Advice from former captains are always useful!

(8) In 15 years, I see myself with a booming career as a pharmacist with two children (preferably twins with a boy and a girl but seeing as the trait does not run in our family gene pool, my chances are slim. One could still hope tho xD) and a loving husband. Volunteering with AFS will definitely be a part of my future. Working with deaf students as an interpreter would be pretty sweet. Have you ever seen deaf people sign? It doesn't only require hand movements, it involves a lot of facial expressions as well. Which is why sign language is so cool. Hence, my desire to learn it. ^^ Then, I would be able to sign as smoothly to my deaf friends as they would to me!

And that would be the end of my first blog entry in blogspot. (blogdrive made me mad, hence the change) Stick around for more funky stories from SOSY~!
