Yeah...the holidays are finally here! After a week of real stress in school =). What a relief! Haha. I'm going to destress for a few days first. It's time to let loose now, especially after the SAT on saturday. Heh..going to watch lots of television and spend lots of time online. Think I already spent about 5 hours watching television and another 5 hours on the Net yesterday haha. But still got lotssa things to do during the holidays. PW meetings, homework to be completed, and most importantly, study for the Block Test. Sigh..this is the first time ever I have to study during the holidays for exam. It's not fun. Even last year, when I was supposed to revise a little bit for the 'O' levels, I ended up watching World Cup throughout the entire holidays. Sigh. Never mind..shall enjoy myself first before getting down to work =).
Watched the Men's Singles French Open final last night. Yeah..Ferrero finally wins! After two semifinal and one final appearances. I still think he should have won last year, but too bad he had to play with an injured ankle and some nerves, so he lost to Albert Costa. This year, he managed to get a revenge. Sigh..too bad Kim Clijsters didn't win the women's singles. Preferred her to win instead of Justine Henin. But still, I must say I gotta rejoice that this time, there's no Williams sisters in the final. Yeah =) And Clijsters also won the Women's Doubles..well, at least that's a title for her on her 20th birthday. Must say it's really been a good French Open this year, with all the players I like winning =). Another smiley. =).
Just burned a Clay CD, sort of. All the songs he sang in American Idol. But think I must have done something a little wrong. Cos two of the first few problems had a few glitches. Argh..but still, the overall CD was OK. My first effort at burning a CD =). Which warrants another smiley. Haha. Seriously, why am I so smiley today? But I think I should have put more songs..cos now the CD only lasts for just over half an hour..so there's still plenty of space. Never mind lah. Can burn another CD, with all the others' songs and the group performances. Haha. Think I'm really obsessed with American Idol =). Missed American Idol a lot. Amazing Race has sort of compensated it, but you know, American Idol is a different kind of show, it's a singing contest and they perform great songs! Was kindda sad that Amanda and Chris got eliminated, wanted those two women to get eliminated. Sigh. Never mind. At least Millie & Chuck, and Jon & Al are still in the show. Love those two teams. I am OK with the gay couple lah, but can't stand those two bimbos with the funny names, models I think. Whatever lah. Haha. Going to go out later, and hopefully I can get the American Idol Season 2: All Time Classic American Love Songs cd, or whatever the title is. =) Great songs in that CD. Got that What the World Needs Now is Love and Clay's On The Wings of Love. Which reminds me.... Clay's and Ruben's singles are out in the US tomorrow. But think I'll just download the songs, no point buying the singles. As of now, at the Amazon.com, for number of orders, Clay's CD is still at No.1, whereas Ruben's is at #4 or 5, dunno which one lah. But see...Clay's one is still ahead. He should have won. Sigh..no point dwelling in the past lah. Anyway, I can't wait for Clay's CD, which is out in September! Haha..anyway..I shall shut up about American Idol for now...
Anyway, I'm still on a high. But heh..recently I've been inspired to memorise song lyrics don't know why lah. And I particularly like this one. Think it's really meaningful, as in you know, it's really inspirational kind of words, something to motivate you in life, when you happen to encounter problems and feel really down.
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
And when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
Yup..the song hero. Haha...I'm playing the Clay CD I burned just now. Really love Bridge Over Troubled Water. Hmm..shall try to find the song lyrics, hopefully I can find them.
Haha..think that's all for me now. Really wrote a lot of crap. Don't know why I'm so hyper today lor. Slept at 3 this morning, cos I was watching tennis, then woke up so early at 9. Only 6 hours of sleep. Sigh. Haha. Never mind. I shall be happy today =). Another smiley. Whatever. I'm off for lunch now. Feeling really hungry. Shall end with a smile =).
