Midnight Cookies | For All Times

being diplomatic is a chore. how do you effectively disguise your true opinions in prim-and-proper, politically correct, won't-make-you-sound-like-a-little-kid-throwing-a-tantrum words? would your true intent show if it's buried under a pile of prettified layers?

if you haven't guessed yet i'm taking a break from writing the i&r.

hihi, i havent contributed for a long time...so here's a lil entry from me.
just a random poem, sweet and short :P

Water, is taught by thirst.
Land -- by the Oceans passed.
Transport -- by throe --
Peace -- by its battles told --
Love, by Memorial Mold --
Birds, by the Snow.

A week's gone by since bake day, and I suppose we've all of us gotten back our results.

And I guess there have been alot of thoughts rushing through our heads the past week. And we've all had our fair share of disappointment, and perhaps satisfaction in one way or another. Maybe some of us feel no satisfaction at all, and its been a trying period for us all, struggling with our emotions and everything.

I know it isn't easy to get over it. We'll spend a certain amount of time brooding over it and all, but at the end of the day, I guess the most important thing really is to figure out why. And make sure these things don't happen again.

Isn't it?

Blade day and Bake day. Pure fun and enjoyment. Although yiiwen was prob kind of stressed out being "head chef". Not that the rest of us were very chef like.

Bake day first.
I love the brownies we baked. And they survived in that thin plastic bag that yiiwen put them in for us to bring home. I was kind of surprised to find all of them in one piece when I got home. I mean, some people very KINDLY stuffed all their bags on top of mine when they put in in the locker while we were blading.
And my dad loved it! It isn't often he likes this kind of chocolatey things. :)
And I'm glad we got the walnuts in the end. It would have turned out awful without it. Brownies more complete with it! heh.

Blade day wasn't class outing in the end. Because some really nice people pulled out last minute. *glares* Blading is less tiring than ice-skating. Everyone survived it! I've got blisters all over my feet now. They feel kind of dead. I know I was digging my nails into maryann. Um, sorry. But hey, she fell on top of me like twice too. So we're even.
Anyway, its official. I hate humps.

School tml. what a put-off. The dreaded moment when we get back our promos. How traumatising.

But I shall end today on a high note! Today was a blast! :)

Lets organise some thing like this soon. Maybe make midnight cookies this time round, no matter how unappetising the picture of the cookies in the book look. :)

This is mine. I see it kind of deviates a litte from me.
-________-"

You have always longed for tenderness, love and a sensitivity of feeling into which you would like to blend. You are a very gentle warm person and responsive to 'All things bright and beautiful'. This personifies a caring person, a person who 'needs' and indeed 'needs to be needed'.

The way things are you are under considerable stress and you feel that there is little hope of matters righting themselves. Everyone about you seems to aggravate the problem even more. You feel that at this time you need to be alone and you are right - move back and give yourself a chance to breathe.

You are trying to break away from the mundane existence that you have been experiencing of late. You have many high hopes and ideals but you are concerned whether circumstances will allow you to realize these ambitions. You want to spread your wings - to broaden your fields of activities - but you are concerned that your dreams are just that - 'dreams' which are not realistic. It concerns you that you are not thinking clearly at this time - what you need is to get away from it all, to give you time to think. A short vacation could well restore your confidence.

You are trying to prove yourself - not only to yourself but also to everyone around you. There is much that you would like to say and do but the situation warrants self-restraint and that is the last thing that you have on your mind. It would seem that you have an unsatisfied need to ally yourself with others whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different - to stand out from the crowd. This is subjecting you to considerable stress but you tend to stick to your attitudes despite lack of appreciation. Of course, you are finding the situation uncomfortable and would like nothing better but to break away from it but you don't like the idea of compromise. Your main problem is that you are unable to resolve the situation because you continually postpone making the necessary decisions. You feel that if you make the wrong choice this would lead to such opposition that you would not be able to command the esteem of others. It is essential that those around you are prepared to comply with your wishes.

You would like to be respected and valued for yourself and this can only be achieved from within a close and harmonious relationship.

Lunch was a blast. After the *yes, successful* meeting with Mmm, not to mention sherlock holmes. We had such a nice chat. *glares*
I shall refrain from comment, in order to protect their identities.

Blading tml at ECP. Its harder than ice skating. oh dear. But theres bake day to look forward to before that! :) nice nice brownies.

Till tomorrow.

You want to be regarded as an exiting and interesting personality able to persuade others to comply with your beliefs and ideas. You are charming and able to influence other people who come into your sphere of influence. You like mental stimulation and you are the sort of person who is prepared to 'try anything once'. Your confidence is so much so that others are often swept away by your enthusiasm.
You are willing to try anything once. You 'need to be needed' and what is perhaps more important you 'need to need.' You can only feel close to a person or persons when you feel you can trust them, but this trust needs to be proven to you.
You are prepared to establish a particular relationship that is being made available to you at this time. It could be a satisfactory liaison but there could be a certain amount of conflict involved -try to avoid direct confrontation at all costs.
From every direction there appear to be unwarranted restrictions on your freedom of action and this is producing considerable stress. You're really looking for independence and freedom from any restriction and therefore avoiding any obligations or anything which might prove hampering. You are being subjected to considerable pressures and you would like nothing better than to escape from them but you tend to lack the necessary strength of purpose to succeed in this. Whichever way you turn you are being frustrated. You need to be free to do your 'thing' in your own way.
You don't like conflict and you endeavor to avoid criticism. You want to do your own thing and to be able to decide what is right for you. You have considerable personable charm - and this is used with considerable effect on those that keep your company.

tt's for me.
bored.

You have always been on the move seeking affectionate, satisfying and harmonious relationships. Your ultimate goal has been the realization of an intimate union in which there could be love, self-sacrifice and mutual trust. It has often been said that 'True love is just around the corner' and - if you haven't found it as yet - you possibly soon will.
Rejection is what you fear the most and it is this fear that makes you unapproachable. You are looking for acknowledgement and above all looking for people who can appreciate you for who and what you are.
The present situation, not of your making, is forcing you to compromise. You will have to hold back and forgo some of your hopes, dreams and aspirations.
You are pretending that the situation around you doesn't matter, but the effort of trying to conceal your emotions and anxieties is resulting in untold stress. The existing situation is disagreeable. You feel unwanted and lonely and you would really like to associate with someone whose ideals are as high as your own. You want to be above the standard of mediocrity and this need to be needed and that need to need has almost become an obsession. You are trying to magnify the need into a compelling urge. You would really like to tell the world how great you are but no, you are holding back because you feel that your peers may treat you with contempt. This is a great pity because you have in fact a unique quality of character, but the continual restraint that you impose on yourself makes you suppress this need for others and you pretend you don't really care. You treat those who criticise you with contempt. However, to be honest, beneath this assumption of indifference you really long for the approval and esteem of others.
You would like to be respected and valued for yourself and this can only be achieved from within a close and harmonious relationship.

hi all,
yep its over. a day late for me...but mine's over too. went out with some classmates today. played pool and some other stuff ...yea. i didnt know how to pool at first and wasnt really interested in it but i'm glad to have learnt sth new today. and its quite fun :)

about blogs-why do pple blog? its kinda weird how you create a diary and let personal stuff be free for all to see. (unless u passwrd entries) its weird how pple parade their sorrows. i'm not referring to any particular blogs or watsoever. i'm just thinking abt the functions of blogs. i guess sometimes u dont really wanna reveal personal stuff in locked-up diaries but when u create such a beautiful blog and spent so much effort designing it, u just want to share your masterpiece with others? is that how it works? i dunno..but i mean there are def pple who spent lots of time beautifying their blogs rite.
why am i on this. i simply wanted to say midnightcookies is such a lovely place. i guess the purpose of our blog is to keep in touch and update each other on the recent happenings in our indiv lives...and to just post random, really random stuff yea :P and it seems like the 409 blog is quite silent. i personally feel more that this is a better place to blog...maybe becos there's some familiarity here. when no one else blogs there, then it's quite weird if u r the only one blogging. if i;m not wring, the lastest one was posted by me :) but i'm guilty of putting a short meaningless post there.

i dont know who reads this blog. i hope its only a few pple whom we know...nice old friends :P. to you out there who is reading ...say hi or sth, let us know you are reading. hmm maybe it doesnt really serve its purpose but dont bloggers usu prefer to know who their readers are? :)

yep...'m kinda tired and sleep deprived for the past few days, but i dont really feel like sleeping yet. gotta gg to sch for pw tmr. i hope everything goes fine. i hope it'll be fulfilling, really hope so.

ok, i've done my part in updating the entries list. now its your turn to do it---to the midnightcookiesian tat have read my post.

gdnite. luv, snail

when the tr said pens down there was a very tangible sense of relief at least for me. that was the first time the end of exams actually had such an impact. usually with me it takes a while for the fact to sink in and even then i'm not overly escatic or anything. so i was rather surprised at the relief.

today was good. for the first time in like a thousand years i successfully did clothes shopping :) and i had a very enjoyable afternoon with dear old friends again.

bake day's coming! can't wait to see all of you then.

till then
