I got my exam results back. O.o
Maths: 90% ( >.< ) Science: 93% English: 87% (an improvement happy happy! first time one of my papers didn't get 70 something...becos this percentage is average of three papers together) Geography: 96% History: 92% RE: 96% ICT: 64% (This is the lowest result I've EVER got. I was crying so much on that morning! Couldn't believe it when my teacher said it. I think it's more like whether she likes your presentation or not, then you get high marks. Dunnoooooooo) Spanish: 94.5% French: 90% Music: 86% (dropped so much!!! we did a listening and appraising test that's why. it was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard!)
That's all the results. A lot of them are quite disappointing. Bleh ~
France Trip on Monday!!! We have to go to school at 3.30am. So we're gonna be nocturnal. Trisha and Shauna are coming over to my house Sunday night so we can walk together to school (and also so their parents don't have to drive them here at 3am in the morning!!!
I am really bored at the moment, I was reading Special A manga, but I could find something more enjoyable. But now I just remembered to watch my weekly episode of Absolute Boyfriend. But it's only one hour. So what do I do after that? Arghhhh....I hate boredom. Ok sorry for being boring to you! Bye!
I am now at my friend Trisha's house, because her birthday was on 13th June and I had a double nightsleepover :P I just needed to post something! I finished watching Absolute Boyfriend (Zettai Kareshi) Episode 8 just now and I love the ending theme which is called Okaeri (Welcome Home ) Here I embeded a video of it, it's really nice. Don't bother watching the video itself, you might tink it's weird, because Absolute Boyfriend is to do with a robot lover.
I really like the song. I also updatd my Song of the moment, which should be playing right now, unless you have paused it. That is the opening song of Vampire Knight, one of my favourite and great anime. This is the full version, the opening of Vampire Knight is shortened.
I really have to go to sleep now. It's 1.39am, so cya!
Exams have finished! I am free!!!!!!!! YAY!!!~!~! For Spanish only. Others, I am dreading results.
Just watched Kung Fu Dunk on Mysoju.com!! Jay Chou starring in this movie. Quite good! I think he's got good acting skills.
The movie was quite interesting, slightly odd but I mean that's how movies are these days. They're running out of ideas, so they turn to ...'out of this world' ideas. A good movie I would say. Click here to see it at mysoju! 3.9 out of 5. :P
Past Jay Chou movies were really good as well. His movies are enjoyable, and not a waste of time.
Initial D is the second movie that Jay acted in, because the first one was Hidden Track where he was in a 'cameo' part. This is all from Wikipedia! :D Initial D was quite good! I remember watching it with cousins :) And Mama liked Jay too! We watched this at Wongs' house!
The third movie by Jay Chou (actually I'm gonna say 2nd becos the first didn't really count cos he wasn't a main character :P) I mean second movie by Jay Chou, is Curse of the Golden Flower! I was really excited to see this movie, especially with my parents! My parents never go to the cinema and I was so happy they were joining us, along with cousins! But the ending of this movie was a bit pointless but that's how stories go anyway.........
Secret! Also a good movie. Directed by Jay Chou! I watched this with Osby and Jazzy! A home movie. Well actually OUR home. So yeah. You can also watch this at mysoju.
:D Nice movies. Kung Fu Dunk is the latest movie that Jay acts in, can't wait for the next one. :D
My current drama that I'm watching is Absolute Boyfriend, on episode 7! Which is loading now :)
My current anime that I'm watching is Vampire Knight, waiting for episode 10 coming out next week. It's a really good anime!! I am downloading the vids from Veoh, and the quality is really good. Also watching Shattered Angels in between when there aren't any episodes of Vampire Knight I haven't watched, but it's not that good.
I know I said I'm on hiatus but I'm posting this for a friend. Feel free to read if you wish, because this is the first chapter of Breaking Dawn!!! The rest will be coming out on 2nd August. This wasn't typed by me, and there are mistakes that was made by the person who typed it up for all of us.
PREFACE I'D HAD MORE THAN MY FAIR SHARE OF NEAR DEATH experiences, it wasn't something you ever really got used to. It seemed oddly inevitable, though, facing death again. Like I really was marked for disaster. I'd escaped time and time again, but it kept coming back for me. Still, this time was so different from the others. You could run from someone you fearred, you could try to fight someone you hated. All my reactions were geared toward those kinds of killers - the monsters, the enemies. When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give your beloved, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved?
1. ENGAGED
NO ONE IS STARING AT YOU, I PROMISED MYSELF. NO ONE is staring at you. No one is staring at you. But, because I couldn't lie convincingly even to myself, I had to check. As I sat waiting for the three traffic lights in town to turn green, I peeked to the right - in her minivan, Mrs. Weber had turned her whole torso in my direction. Her eyes bored into mine, and i flinched back, wondering why she didn't drop her gaze or look ashamed. It was still considered rude to stare at people, wasn't it? Didn't that apply to me anymore? Then I remembered that these windows were so darkly tinted that she probably had no idea if it was even me in here, let alone that I'd caught her looking. I tried to take some comfort in the fact that she wasn't really staring at me, just the car. My car. Sigh. I glanced to the left and groaned. Two pedestrians were frozen on the sidewalk, missing their chance to cross as they stared. Behind them, Mr. Marshall was gawking through the plate glass window of his little souvenir shop. At least he didn't have his nose pressed up against the glass. Yet. The light turned green and, in my hurry to escape, I stomped on the gas pedal without thinking - the normal way I would have punched it to get my ancient Chevy truck moving. Engine snarling like a hunting panther, the car jolted forward so fast that my body slammed into the black leather seat and my stomach flattened against my spine. "Arg!" I gasped as I fumbled for the brake. Keeping my head, I merely tapped the pedal. The car lurched to an absolute standstill anyway. I couldn't bear to look around at the reaction. If there had been any doubt as to who was driving this car before, it was gone now. With the toe of my shoe, i gently nudged the gas pedal down one half millimeter, and the car shot forward again. I managed to reach my goal, the gas station. If I hadn't been running on vapors, I wouldn't have come into town at all. I was going without a lot of things these days, like ... (?) and shoelaces, to avoid spending time in public. Moving as if I were in a race, I got the hatch open, the cap off, the card scanned, and the nozzle in the tank within seconds. Of course, there was nothing I could do to make the numbers on the gauge pick up the pace. They .. (?) by sluggishly, almost as if they were doing it just to angry me. It wasn't bright out – a typical drizzly day in Forks, Washington – but I still felt like a spotlight was trained on me, drawing attention to the delicate ring on my left hand. At times like this, sensing the eyes on my back, it felt as if the ring were pulsing like a neon sign: Look at me, look at me. It was stupid to be so self-conscious, and I knew that. Besides my dad and mom, did it really matter what people were saying about my engagement? About my new car? About my mysterious acceptance into an Ivy League college? About the shiny black credit card that felt red-hit in my back pocket right now? “Yeah, who cares what they think,” I muttered under my breath. “Um, miss?” a man's voice called. I tuned, and then wished I hadn't. Two men stood beside a fancy SUV with brand-new kayaks tied on top. Neither of them was looking at me; they both were staring at the car. Personally, I didn't get it. But them, I was just proud I could distinguish between the symbols for Toyota, Ford and Chevy. This car was glossy black, sleek, and pretty, but it was still just a car to me. “I'm sorry to bother you, but could you tell me what kind of car you're driving?” the tall one asked. “Um, a Mercedes, right?” “Yes,” the man said politely while his shorter friend rolled his eyes at my answer. “I know. But I was wondering, is that... are you driving a Mercedes Guardian?” The man said the name with reverence. I had a feeling this guy would get along well with Edward, my... my fiancé (there really was no getting around that truth with the wedding just days away). “They aren't supposed to be available in Europe yet,” the man went on, “let alone here.” While his eyes traced the contours of my car – it didn't look much different from any other Mercedes sedan to me, but what did I know? - I briefly contemplated my issues with words like fiancé, wedding, husband, etc. I just couldn't put it together in my head. On the one hand, I had been raised to cringe at the very thought of poofy white dresses and bouquets. But more than that, I just couldn't reconcile a staid, respectable, dull concept like husband with my concept of Edward. It was like casting an archangel as an accountant; I couldn't visualize him in any commonplace role. Like always, as soon as I started thinking about Edward I was caught up in a dizzy spin of fantasies. The stranger had to clear his throat to get my attention; he was still waiting for an answer about the car's make and model. “I don't know,” I told him honestly. “Do you mind if I take a picture with it?” It took me a second to process that. “Really? You want to take a picture with the car?” “Sure – nobody is going to believe me if I don't get proof.” “Um. Okay. Fine.” I swiftly put away the nozzle and crept into the front seat to hide while the enthusiast dug a huge professional-looking camera out of his backpack. He and his friend took turns posing by the hood, and then they went to take pictures at the back end. “I miss my truck,” I whimpered to myself. Very, very convenient – too convenient – that my truck would wheeze it's last wheeze just weeks after Edward and I had agreed to our lopsided compromise, one detail of which was that he'd be allowed to replace my truck when it passed on. Edward swore it was only to be expected, my truck had lived a long, full life and then expired of natural causes. According to him. And, of course, I had no way to verify his story or to try to raise my truck from the dead on my own. My favorite mechanic – I stopped that thought cold, refusing to let it come to a conclusion. Instead, I listened to the men's voice outside, muted my the car walls. “...went at it with a flame thrower in the online video. Didn't even pucker the paint.” “Of course not. You could roll a tank over this baby. Not much of a market for one over here. Designed for Middle East diplomats, arms dealers, and drug lords mostly.” “Think she's something?” the short one asked in a softer voice. I ducked my head. “Huh,” the tall one said, “Maybe. Can't imagine what you'd need missle-proof glass and four thousand pounds of body armor for around here. Must be headed somewhere more hazardous.” Body armor. Four thousand pounds of body armor. And missle-proof glass? Nice. What happened to good old-fashioned bulletproof? Well, at least this made some sense – if you had a twisted sense of humor. It wasn't like I hadn't expected Edward to take advantage of our deal, to weight it on his side so that he could give so much more than he would receive. I'd agreed that he could replace my truck when it needed replacing, not expecting that moment to come quite so soon, of course. When I'd been forced to admit that the truck had become no more than a still-life tribute to classic Chevys on my curb, I knew his idea of replacement was probably going to embarrass me. Make me focus of stares and whispers. I'd been right about that part. But even in my darkest imaginings I had not foreseen that he would get me two cars. The “before” car. He'd told me it was a loaner and promised that he was returning it after the wedding. It all had made absolutely no sense to me. Until now. Ha ha. Because I was so fragilely human, so accident prone, so much a victim to my own dangerous bad luck, apparently I needed a tank-resistant car to keep me safe. Hilarious. I was sure he and his brothers had enjoyed the joke quite a bit behind my back. Or maybe, just maybe, a small voice whispered in my head, it's not a joke, silly. Maybe he's really that worried about you. This wouldn't be the first time he's gone a little overboard trying to protect me. I sighed. I hadn't seen the “after” car yet. It was hidden under a sheet in the deepest corner of the Cullns garage. I knew most people would have peeked by now, but I really didn't want to know. Probably no body armor on that car – because I wouldn't need it after the honeymoon. Virtual indestructibility was just one of the many perks I was looking forward to. The best parts about being a Cullen were not expensive cars and impressive credit cards. “hey,” the tall man called, cupping his hands to the glass in an effort to peer in, “We're done now. Thanks a lot!” “You're welcome,” I called back, and then tensed as I started the engine and eased the pedal – ever so gently – down. .. No matter how many times I drove down the familiar road toward home, I still couldn't make the rain- washed flyers fade into the background. Each one of them, stapled to telephone poles and taped to street signs, was like a fresh slap in the face. A well-deserved slap in the face. My mind was sucked back into the thought. I'd interrupted so immediately before. I couldn't avoid it on this road. Not with pictures of my favorite mechanic flashing past me at regular intervals. My best friend. My Jacob. The HAVE YOU SEEN THIS BOY? Posters were not Jacob's father's idea. It had been my father, Charlie, who'd printed up the flyers and spread them all over town. And not just Forks, but Port Angeles and Sequim and Hoquiam and Aberdeen and every other town in the Olympic Peninsula... He'd made sure that all the police stations in the state of Washington had the same flyer hanging on the wall, too. His own station had a whole cork board dedicated to finding Jacob. A cork board that was mostly empty, much to his disappointment and frustration. My dad was disappointed with more than the lack of response. He was most disappointed with Billy, Jacob's father – and Charlie's closest friend. For Billy's not being more involved with the search for his sixteen-year-old “runaway.” For Billy's refusing to put up the flyers in La Push, the reservation on the coast that was Jacob's home. For his seeming resigned to Jacob's disappearance, as if there was nothing he could do. For his saying, “Jacob's grown up now. He'll come home if he wants to.” And he was frustrated with me for taking Billy's side. I wouldn't put up posters, either. Because both Billy and I knew where Jacob was, roughly speaking, and we also knew that no one had seen this boy. The flyers put the usual big, fat lump in my throat, the usual stinging tears in my eyes, and I was glad Edward was out hunting this Saturday. If Edward saw my reaction, it would only make him feel terrible, too. Of course, there were drawbacks to it being Saturday. As I turned slowly and carefully onto my street, I could see my dad's police cruiser in the driveway of our home. He'd skipped fishing again today. Still sulking about the wedding. So I wouldn't be able to use the phone inside. But I had to call... I parked on the curb behind the Chevy sculpture and pulled the cell phone Edward had given to me for emergencies out of of the glove compartment. I dialed, keeping my finger on the “end” button as the phone rang. Just in case. “Hello?” Seth Clearwater answered, and I sighed in relief. I was way too chicken to speak to his older sister Leah. The phrase “bite my head off ” was not entirely a figure of speech when it came to Leah. “Hey, Seth, It's Bella.” “Oh hiya, Bella! How are you?” Choked up. Desperate for reassurance. “Fine.” “Calling for an update?” “You're psychic.” “Not hardly. I'm no Alice – you're just predictable,” he joked. Among the Quileute pack down at La Push, only Seth was comfortable even mentioning the Cullens by name, let alone joking about things like my nearly omniscient sister-in-law-to-be. “I know I am.” I hesitated for a minute. “How is he?” Seth sighed. “Same as ever. He won't talk, though we know he hears us. He's trying not to think human, you know. Just going with his instincts.” “Do you know where he is now?” “Somewhere in northern Canada. I can't tell you which province. He doesn't pay much attention to state lines.” “Any hint that he might...” “He's not coming home, Bella. Sorry.” I swallowed. “S'okay, Seth. I knew before I asked. I just can't help wishing.” “Yeah. We all feel the same way.” “thanks for putting up with me, Seth. I know the others must give you a hard time.” “they're not your hugest fans,” he agreed cheerfully. “Kind of lame, I think. Jacob made his choices, you made yours. Jake doesn't like their attitude about it. 'Course, he isn't super thrilled that you're checking up on him, either.” I gasped. “I though he wasn't talking to you?” “He can't hide everything from us, hard as he's trying.” So Jacob knew I was worried. I wasn't sure how I felt about that. Well at least he knew I hadn't skipped off into the sunset and forgotten him completely. He might have imagined me capable of that. “I guess I'll see you at the... wedding.” I said, forcing the word through my teeth. “Yeah, me and my mom will be there. It was cool of you to ask us.” I smiled at the enthusiasm in his voice. Though inviting the Clearwaters had been Edward's idea, I was glad he'd thought of it. Having Seth there would be nice – a link, however tenuous, to my missing best man. “It wouldn't be the same without you.” “Tell Edward I said hi, 'kay?” “Sure thing.” I shook my head. The friendship that had sprung up between Edward and Seth was something that still boggled my mind. It was proof, though, that things didn't have to be this way. That werewolves and vampires could get along just fine, thank you very much, if they were of a mind to. Not everybody liked this idea. “Ah,” Seth said, his voice cracking up an octave. “Er, Leah's home.” “Oh! Bye!” the phone went dead. I left it on the seat and prepared myself mentally to go inside the house, where Charlie would be waiting. My poor dad had so much to deal with right now. Jacob-the-runaway was just one of the straws on his overburdened back. He was almost as worried about me, his barely-a-legal-adult daughter who was about to become a Mrs. In just a few days' time. I walked slowly through the light rain, remembering the night we'd told him... As the sound of Charlie's cruise announced his return, the ring suddenly weighed a hundred pounds on my finger. I wanted to shove my left hand in a pocket, or maybe sit on it, but Edward's coo, firm grasp kept it in front and center. “Stop fidgeting, Bella. Please try to remember that you're not confessing to a murder here.” !easy for you to say.” I listened to the ominous sound of my father's boots clomping up the sidewalk. The key rattled in the already open door. The sound reminded me of that part of the movie when the victim realizes she's forgotten to lock her deadbolt... “Calm down, Bella,” Edward whispered, listening to the acceleration of my heart. The door slammed against the wall, and I flinched like I'd been Tasered. “Hey, Charlie,” Edward called entirely relaxed. “No!” I hissed under my breath. “What?” Edward whispered back. “Wait till he hangs his gun up!” Edward chuckled and ran his free hand through his tousled bronze hair. Charlie came around the corner, still in his uniform, still armed, and tried not to make a face when he spied us sitting together on the love seat. Lately, he'd been putting forth a lot of effort to like Edward more. Of course, this revelation was sure to end that effort immediately. “Hey, kids. What's up?” “We'd like to talk to you,” Edward said. “We have some good news.” Charlie's expression went from strained friendliness to black suspicion in a second. “Good news?” Charlie growled, looking straight at me. “Have a seat, Dad.” He raised one Eyebrow, stared at me for five seconds, then stomped to the recliner and sat down on the very edge, his back ramrod straight. “Don't get worked up, Dad,” I said after a moment of loaded silence. “Everything's okay.” Edward grimaced, and I knew it was in objection to the word “okay”. He probably would have used something more like “wonderful” or “perfect” or “glorious”. “Sure it is, Bella, sure it is. If everything is so great then why are you sweating bullets?” “I'm not sweating,” I lied. I leaned away from his fierce scowl, cringing into Edward, and instinctively wiped the back of my right hand across my forehead to remove the evidence. “You're pregnant!” Charlie exploded “You're pregnant, aren't you?” Though the question was probably meant for me, he´was glaring at Edward now, and I could have sworn I saw his hand twitch toward the gun. “No! Of course I'm not!” I wanted to elbow Edward in the ribs, but I knew that move would only give me a bruise. I'd told Edward that people would immediately jump to this conclusion! What other possible reason would sane people have for getting married at eighteen? (His answer then had made me roll my eyes Love. Right.) Charlie's glower lightened a shade. It was usually pretty clear on my face when I was telling the truth, and he believed me now. “Oh. Sorry.” “Apology accepted.” There was a long pause. After a moment I realized everyone was waiting for me to say something. I looked up at Edward, panic-stricken. There was no way I was going to get the words out. He smiled at me and then squared his shoulders and turned to my father. “Charlie, I realize that I've gone about this out of order. Traditionally, I should have asked you first. I mean no disrespect, but since Bella has already said yes and I don't want to diminish her choice in this matter, instead of asking you for her hand, I'm asking you for your blessing. We're getting married, Charlie. I love her more than anything in the world, more than my own life, and – by some miracle – she loves me that way, too. Will you give us your blessing?” He sounded so sure, so calm. For just an instant, listening to the absolute confidence in his voice, I experienced a rare moment of insight. I could see, fleetingly the way the world looked to him. For the length of one heartbeat, this news made perfect sense. And then I caught sight of the expression on Charlie's face, his eyes now locked on the ring. I held my breath while his skin changed colors – fair to red, red to purple, purple to blue, I started to get up – I'm not sure what I planned to do; maybe use the Heimlich maneuver to make sure he wasn't choking – but Edward squeezed my hand and murmured “Give him a minute” so low that only I could hear. The silence was much longer this time. Then, gradually, shade by shade, Charlie's color returned to normal. His lips pursed, and his eyebrows furrowed; I recognized his “deep in thought” expression. He studied the two of us for a long moment, and I felt Edward relax at my side. “Guess I'm not that surprised,” Charlie grumbled. “Knew I'd have to deal with something like this soon enough.” I exhaled. “You sure about this?” Charlie demanded, glaring at me. “I'm one hundred percent sure about Edward,” I told him without missing a beat. “Getting married, though? What's the rush?” He eyed me suspiciously again. The rush was due to the fact that I was getting closer to nineteen every stinking day, while Edward stayed frozen in all his seventeen-year-old perfection. Not that this fact associated marriage in my book, but the wedding was required due to the delicate and tangled compromise Edward and I had made to get to this point, the brink of any transformation from mortal to immortal. These weren't things I could explain to Charlie. “We're going away to Dartmouth together in the fall, Charlie,” Edward reminded him. “I'd like to do that, well, the right way. It's how I was raised.” He shrugged. He wasn't exactly exaggerating; they'd been big on old-fashioned morals during World War I. Charlie's mouth twisted to the side. Looking for an angle ti argue from. But what could he say? I'd prefer you live in sin first? He was a dad; his hand were tied. “Knew this was coming,” he muttered to himself, frowning. Then, suddenly, his face went perfectly smooth and blank. “Dad?” I asked anxiously. I glanced at Edward, but I couldn't read his face, either, as he watched Charlie. “Ha!” Charlie exploded. I jumped in my seat. “ Ha, ha, ha!” I stared incredulously as Charlie doubled over in laughter, his whole body shook with it. I looked at Edward for a translation, but Edward had his lips pressed tightly together, like he was trying to hold back laughter himself. “Okay, fine,” Charlie choked out. “Get married.” Another roll of laughter shook through him. “But....” “But what?” I demanded. “But you have to tell your mom! I'm not saying one word to Renée! That's all yours!” He bursted into loud guffaws. I paused with my hand on the doorknob, smiling. Sure, at the time, his words had terrified me. The ultimate doom; telling Renée. Early marriage was higher up on her black list than boiling live puppies. Who could have foreseen her response? Not me. Certainly not Charlie. Maybe Alice, but I hadn't thought to ask her. “Well; Bella,” Renée had said after I'd choked and stuttered out the impossible words: Mom, I'm marrying Edward. “I'm a little miffed that you waited so long to tell me. Plane tickets only get more expensive. Ooohh.,” she'd fretted, “Do you think Phil's cast will be off by then? It will spoil the pictures if he's not in a tux - “ “Back up a second, Mom.” I'd gasped. “What do you mean, waited so long? I just got en-en...” - I'd been unable to force out the word engaged - “things settled, you know, today.” “Today? Really? That is a surprise. I assumed...- “What did you assume? When did you assume?” “Well, when you came to visit me in April, it looked like things were pretty much sewn up, if you know what I mean. You're not very hard to read, sweetie. But I didn't say anything because I knew it wouldn't do any good. You're exactly like Charlie.” She'd sighed, resigned. “Once you make up your mind, there is no reasoning with you. Of course, exactly like Charlie, you stick by your decisions, too.” “You're not making my mistakes, Bella. You sound like you're scared silly, and I'm guessing it's because you're afraid of me.” She'd giggled. “Of what I'm going to think. And I know I've said a lot of things about marriage and stupidity – and I'm not taking them back – but you need to realize that those things specifically applied to me. You're a complete different person than I am. You make your own kind of mistakes, and I'm sure you'll have your share of regrets in life. But commitment was never your problem, sweetie. You have a better chance of making this work than most fortyyear- olds I know.” Renée had laughed again. “My little middle-aged child. Luckily, you seem to have found another old soul- “You're not... mad? You don#t think I'm making a humongous mistake?” “Well, sure I wish you'd wait a few more years. I mean, do I look old enough to be a mother-inlaw to you? Don't answer that. But this isn't about me. This is about you. Are you happy?” “I don't know. I'm having an out-of-body experience right now.” Renée had chuckled. “Does he make you happy, Bella?” “Yes, but -” “Are you ever going to want anyone else?” “No, but-” “But what?” “But aren't you going to say that I sound exactly like every other infatuated teenager since the dawn of time?” “You've never been a teenager, sweetie. You know what's best for you.” For the last few weeks, Renée had unexpectedly immersed herself in wedding plans. She'd spent hours every day on the phone with Edward's mother, Esme – no worries about the in-laws getting along. Renée adored Esme, but then, I doubted anyone could help responding that way to my lovable almost-mother-in-law. It let me right off the hook. Edward's family and my family were taking care of the nuptials together without me having to do or know or think too hard about any of it. Charlie was furious, of course, but the sweet part was that he wasn't furious at me. Renée was the traitor. He'd counted on her to play the heavy. What could he do now, when his ultimate threat – telling Mom – had turned out to be utterly empty? He had nothing, and he knew it. So he moped around the house, muttering things about not being able to trust anyone in this world... “Dad?” I called as I pushed open the front door. “I'm home.” “Hold on, Bells, stay right there.” “huh?” I asked, pausing automatically. “Gimme a second. Ouch, you got me, Alice.” Alice? “Sorry, Charlie,” Alice's trilling voice responded, “How's that?” “I'm bleeding on it.” “You're fine. Didn't break the skin – trust me. “What's going on?” I demanded, hesitating in the doorway. “thirty seconds, please, Bella,” Alice told me. “Your patience will be rewarded.” “humph,” Charlie added. I tapped my foot, counting each beat. Before I got to our living room. “Oh,” I huffed. “Aw. Dad. Don't you look -” “Silly?” Charlie interrupted. “I was thinking more like 'debonair'” Charlie blushed. Alice took his elbow and tugged him around into a slow spin to showcase the pale gray tux. “Now cut that out, Alice. I look like an idiot.” “No one dressed by me ever looks like an idiot.” “She's right, Dad. You look fabulous! What's the occasion? Alice rolled her eyes. “It's the final check on the fit. For both of you.” I peeled my gaze off the unusually elegant Charlie for the first time and saw the dreaded white garment bag laid carefully across the sofa. “Aaah.” “Go to your happy place, Bella. It won't take long.” I sucked in a deep breath and closed my eyes. Keeping them shut, I stumbled my way up the stairs to my room. I stripped down to my underwear and held my arms straight out. “You'd think I was shoving bamboo splitters under your nails,” Alice muttered to herself as she followed me in. I paid no attention to her. I was in my happy place. In my happy place, the whole wedding mess was over and done. Behind me. Already repressed and forgotten. We were alone, just Edward and me. The setting was fuzzy and constantly in flux – it morphed from misty forest to cloud-covered city to arctic night – because Edward was keeping the location of our honeymoon a secret to surprise me. But I wasn't especially concerned about the where part. Edward and I were together, and I'd fulfilled my side of our compromise perfectly. I'd married him. That was the big one. But I'd also accepted all his outrageous gifts and was registered, however futilely, to attend Dartmouth College in the fall. Now it was his turn. Before he turned me into a vampire – his big compromise – he had one other stipulation to make good on. Edward had an obsessive sort of concern over the human things that I would be giving up, the experiences he didn't want me to miss. But there was only one experience I was insisting on. Of course it would be the one he wished I would forget all about. Here was the thing, though. I knew what I was going to be like when it was all over. I'd seen newborn vampires firsthand, and I'd heard all my family-to-be's stories about those wild early days. For several years, my biggest personality trait was going to be “thirsty”. It would take some time before I could be me again. And even when I was in control of myself, I would never feel exactly the way I felt now. Human... and passionately in love. I wanted the complete experience before I traded in my warm, breakable, pheromone-riddled body for something beautiful, string... and unknown. I wanted a real honeymoon with Edward. And, despite the danger he feared this would put me in, he'd agreed to try. I was only vaguely aware of Alice and the slip and slide of satin over my skin. I didn't care, for the moment, that the whole town was talking about me. I didn't think about the spectacle I would have to star in much to soon. I didn't worry about the tripping on my train or giggling at the wrong moment or being too young or the staring audience or even the empty seat where my best friend should be. I was with Edward in my happy place.
I am going on hiatus..well actually it's already started. So I won't be blogging for a while, at least until my exams are over! Meanwhile, look at this pic!!
So...back to school now..then soon are exams! but I really can't wait till exams + results are over, because it'll all be really fun after that! France trip, outings day..etc!
Monday at assembly Mrs Evans gave me my swimming medal for 2nd in class. She also gave me my trophy for Highest Achiever in Yrs 7-8! :D I was supposed to receive it at the end of term assembly but I was at the netball tournament.
This is the medal and trophy I got!
This was my trophy/medal collection before...
AFTER!
The bad thing about Harvington is that they don't let you keep the trophies :( The cups you see in the picture all have to be given in soon! I can't remember when they need it...But still, there is no mark that you got this trophy! No name on the trophy or anything, just give and give back! That's why I have to make a mark and take a picture myself or else I might forget I even got this trophy at all!
Later that afternoon I also received my certificate for my Science project! I made the DNA double helix structure with a powerpoint presentation and I got 1st. I can't show a picture of the certificate right now because of some technical difficulties. I also got a bag of sweets/chocolate as a prize for 1st. :D
The rest of the week was alright, getting into the routine of normal schooldays already. Next week clubs start, and I quit Mandarin for Badminton/Aerobics on Tuesday afternoons! I also have Cross Country at Tuesday lunchtime, then Science club at wednesday lunchtime, and finally Netball at Wednesday afternoons. Yay! All fun activities! :D :D
It was snowing in London on Sunday! And then the next day, I was on a plane to Doha, Qatar to do the entrance exam for Doha College. My flight on Qatar Airways flight 6 was at 10.50am so I woke up at 6am, ate breakfast and set off to train station at 7.25am. Me and my mum went on the 7.40am train and arrived just before 8am at Heathrow Airport Terminal 3. We went to check-in, sat down somewhere to wait for the gate to open (I was on the phone with Twishy- lol and after that reading Twilight to pass the time). Soon the gate opened and we went in to wait and saw Jennifer's family waiting as well, cos they were also going to Doha with the same reasons as me. Uncle Hii was going to Doha on business. Me and my mum got some horrible seats in the middle aisle. Seats 36F & G. Ugh. At least it was an aisle seat. No windows. The food was actually quite nice. Except I never eat the bread they give. I hate it!! I watched I am Legend again, and listened to some music while reading.
When we arrived at around 6pm, we got into the bus (in Doha they don't have those tunnel-y things that you walk through to go into Arrivals..haha tunnel-y things! we had to go down using these car-stairs and then into the bus). After we got off the bus and into the Arrivals terminal, there was a lady there waiting for us, holding a sign with me and my mum's names. She led us to this waiting area, while she did our visas. I wasn't quite sure what she was doing. I just knew she was putting something to make us allowed into the country. After that she brought us to the baggage reclaim. She could speak Mandarin as well, so she could communicate with us properly. After that we went into the area where you see tonnes of people waiting for their families or friends. We looked for Four Seasons people and they led us to the car. It was a Mercedes! Woohoo!! I want that type of car. No actually there's this sports car that is really cool..Aston Martin V12 Vanquish! Ok I'm straying away from the subject.
The Four Seasons hotel is really nice. About 20 mins drive from the airport. The hotel is really pretty on the inside and so posh! haha..we checked in and got a room number at 1628! On the 16th floor! That was cool.....This picture was take on the last day, but from the view at the back of the hotel. I didn't take any of the front. They have 17 floors all together so we're assuming that the one below that is ours. I knew the windows in our room were shaped like that, and I knew how the view was so I'm 90% certain that's our room.
This is the bedroom! My bed is the one with the black jacket sprawled across it... The TV had Internet, but it was really hard to online because there was no proper mouse, you had to use this knob thing that you push to move the mouse around. So I only checked emails.
This is the hallway to our room.
This is the view from out the window!!! so nice!!
This view is out the other window. That building in the distance shaped like a pyramid is the Sheraton Hotel.
This is a 5 star hotel!!! And so of course, the food have to be really excellent. On Tuesday, we had breakfast, lunch and dinner there. Nowhere else to eat. I had spring rolls and kebbeh for lunch, with ice lemon drink.
Heheh...the spring rolls were already gone by then.
Dinner was really really nice!!!! Prawns and fish, with rosemary baked potatoes and vegetables at the side. Delicious!!! I also had Pepsi. Yum!
Food over. Now time for events. After we reached the hotel room, I took a bath..and it was interrupted when we had to go down to dinner with Uncle Hii and Uncle Jerry's family. There was no talk on the kids table at all. So quiet! By the time we got upstairs, it was already around 9-10pm..i think. So I tried out the Internet and went to sleep at 11.30pm. I woke up at 2am, needing water. So dry! and hot. I couldn't get to sleep till 2.30am. It was hot! My mum said I slept-talked! AHHH!
I woke up at 6am, got ready and went to breakfast at 6.30am. Ate, went up to the room and then waited outside for the driver to take us to Doha College at 7.30am. Reached Doha College at 8am. Waited for half an hour and the test started at 8.30am. Technically, 8.45am. The lady was explaining things to us and we had to fill in information. There was another boy who was trying for Year 9 as well. The rest were trying for Year 7 & 8, including Jennifer. The test lasted to 11am, with breaks in between. Quiet breaks. Those people were way too shy to talk. Only me and that boy called Mark talked. A bit. After the test ended, we went back to the hotel. Had that lunch, and then went back up to room. I read Twilight to pass the time.. while mum took a nap. At 2.30pm we went downstairs to go on the tour of Doha. A lady called Karen brought us around the city. Here are some pics:
This is the sports arena: Sport City.
Doha Golf Club
The Lagoon in construction- there are lots of constructions all over Doha!!
The Ritz-Carlton Hotel in the distance.
After that I quit taking pictures cos I was tired. Soon I fell asleep and when I woke up we were at the hotel already! It was 5pm so we went back up to the room and lazed around. We went down and had dinner at around 7pm (refer to dinner food above!!).
Wednesday morning
It was the same routine, except this time we went to the Nine Pearls compound to see the housing where we might live in August. We saw a house that was type C, with 4 bedrooms. We were planning to see all three types A B and C, but we had to go to Park House English School to submit my latest report at 9am. When we got to the school, the Head of Secondary viewed my report, and she said I didn't need to do a entrance exam, that I could enter if I wanted to. She interviewed me, I'm guessing to see my social skills? And then after that we had some extra time, so we asked for a tour around the school, and we met the same guy from Doha College! Mark and his mum was there as well, and his dad was also here for the same reason as my dad. So same tour and then after that we had to leave. Off back to the housing, to House no. 24 Whale Street. (haha! there's whale street, elephant street, fish street, boar street, cloud street etc..weird eh?) This was Aunty Mary's house!
This is the door to Aunty Mary's house.
The rest of the compound.
The whole day just passed, mostly in silence for me. I didn't understand Hokkien anyway so I couldn't really join in the conversations. We had lunch at the house, eatingg takeaway KFC. Dinner was at a Thai restaurant. After that, Uncle Fung sent us back to the hotel, and off to sleep!
Thursday morning
Same routine, but later, at around 8am. We went to the airport at 10.30am, checked in, waited and boarded plane. This time the seats were WORSE! We sat in the middle of the aisle, wedged in between two strangers! AHHHHHHH! And the man sitting next to me was annoying! Kept trying to talk to me. Out of boredom I guess, but who told him that he couldn't watch a movie on his personal TV? So weird. I watched The Golden Compass.
After that, took train and got home. Sleep sleep sleep....
Overall I really liked Doha, and I'm quite excited to go back there! I have no idea why I like the deserty area and the hot weather: i just like it. It's good, cos I have to get used to it soon!
I AM IN A VERY VERY HAPPY MOOD! Sherp has just said not to get over excited but I can't help it!!! I just read more information about Twilight the Movie!!! It is going to be released on 12 December 2008! I really can't wait that long!!!
This movie poster that I saw on a Soompi forum that Kim told me about (posted by yurikah), really threw me off!!! I got soooo happy looking at the unofficial poster. Imagine what I'll be like when I see the official poster!!! Qatar better have a cinema! Or else! This movie needs to be watched in a cinema. It has action and horror, so in a cinema the atmosphere would be really cool.
The 4th and last installment of Twilight series, Breaking Dawn will be released on 2nd August 2008! I can't wait for this to be out too. There is no picture of the cover yet, but in May somewhere, the special edition of Eclipse will be released and inside will be the excerpt of Breaking Dawn!!!! AHHHHH!! And hopefully it will show the cover art too!!!!! I'm not gonna buy the special edition one though, sadly. (I'll just get told off..I bought the non-special edition for 13 pounds!!!!!!)
And Stephenie Meyer, the author of Twilight series, is working on a Edward POV book that is the exact same as Twilight, except in Edward point-of-view. It's going to be called Midnight Sun. There is a chapter of it online on Meyer's website, it's the first chapter. It is really good, and I wanna read it, but I have no idea when it will be published. Quite late...maybe 2009? You have to read Twilight first to understand Midnight Sun, in my opinion. Cos it just delves into things, without really explaining it clearly. But of course, I understand it and I love it!!!!
This is all making me very hyper! I am really impatient to see all these wonderful books and movie come out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm watching Tokyo Mew Mew now, an anime. I've read the first two volumes of the manga from the library, but the anime has 52 episodes! I'll go through it slowly.
I went to Legoland Windsor on Tuesday with Aunty Anneeza's family. Mostly I went around the park with her two eldest daughters, Soeffiah and Sabreenna, aged 9 and 11. We went on most of the rides, and all of us agreed that The Dragon was the best! I didn't have a pic of this, so I went on the internet for one. Googled it.
REALLY FUN! We couldn't go on the ride more than twice, because the line was way too long. We waited nearly 45 mins for the first one, then the second one we waited 30 mins. Another one, we enjoyed a lot, and we went on it 4 times!! It's called Pirate Falls, and I bought a picture of us on it. The picture was the second time we went on it. The first picture blocked someone's face. The line for this wasn't long, but it was fun.
Queueing for Pirate Falls
The Splash!! The Drop!! (Googled image)
Our finished product. I didn't scan this, I was too lazy, so I just took a pic. All our mouths are like AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Soaking WET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn't take a lot of pictures at the park, because I was busy riding stuff. LOL. I got a pic of the first ride, called Longboat Invader. It looked really mild. I was starting to think that it was a lame ride, before I went on it. But when i got on it, I was like, "Hey, this is kinda fun!" haha!
Sabreenna and Soeffiah queueing! (Well me too but I'm on the other side of this camera(phone))
And the final ride that I have a picture of: Jungle Coaster. This was the most scary, in a way. Really high and you keep looking down. Eeek!
It's high!! AHHH It was scary. Lots of bumps when turning, which made it a lot scarier. Looking down! Fun, but not The Dragon-fun!
Wow. I have never cried that hard for a friend. Not that I don't miss any other friends, but I personally think it was my friend Risa's skills at crying that made me burst into tears. And this wasn't even the day when she was leaving! This was on Tuesday morning, when I showed the whole class the movie I made for Risa.
Since at the end, it says big group hug, everyone gave her a giant group hug, and that's when the waterworks started i guess. She was crying a lot. When I looked at her, I reminisced and thought about how much I was gonna miss her, so that's when I started crying. Lots of people cried. But some didn't. Those that didn't, cried the next day. LOL. I wasn't there. But 2 people didn't cry at all. Just not emotional people I guess. After that crying my tears dried up, and I didn't cry anymore. MISS YOU LOTS RISA!!
Love you lots Risa!!! Thanks for being such a fun and great friend! You'll be glad to know you're one of my best friends in the world!!!!!!!!! You already know that :P
I WILL MEET YOU IN JAPAN SOON! lol..need to plan that <<<
Description: Passionate and proud - you stand very firmly on issues you truly believe in. Unrelentless and driven - you are willing to work very hard when you have to. While not an angry person by nature, you can be hot-tempered when things aren't going your way.
Omigosh! This is true! Well the personality weakness part anyway. I'm an impatient person. And I like being sarcastic. Even though sarcasm is cruel. So I prefer to be ironic. Watever. Blame Mr Ridgway for this analysis.
Most of the stuff is really true!!! haha..There's another thing I saw on someone's Fanfiction homepage which I think is quite true. LOL
...Girls ...are like ...apples on trees. ...The best ones are ...at the top of the tree.The ...boys dont want to reach ...for the good ones because they ...are afraid of falling and getting hurt. ...Instead, they just get the rotten apples
...from the ground that aren't as good, ...but easy. So the apples at the top think ...something is wrong with them, when in ...reality, they're amazing. They just ...have to wait for the right boy to ...come along, the one who's ...brave enough to ...climb all ...the way ...to the top ...of the tree.
(Girls this is so true!)
:)
Here's a personality test I took on Facebook. My results:
I scored 45 on Dr. Phil's personality test Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who will always cheer them up and help them out.
Hah...The mood of depression has disappeared. I had a depression period twice already. Once was when I came back from Malaysia and I was really really really really upset. Cried for hours. I'm serious. Missed Malaysia so much at that moment. Felt homesick the moment I came into the house. The cold dreary house. Pluh........ The second time was when I really really really missed my best friend Kim. Just missed her a lot. A lot.
So this third time is over. But it was not that serious. A low level of depression; sort of like a huge worry at the top of my Worry List (I'm being honest, I do have one mentally). The most drastic one is of course the Malaysia one. Cried for how many hours for at least 4 days. There was once I just burst into tears in front of Sherp. If you remember Sherp...this was in Jan 2007. I came into your room and I was really sad. And then you tried guessing why I was sad and then I cried. Well, now you know. Not a stupid reason to cry for actually. I was missing Lynna and malaysia so much. (and of course everyone else..but I spent a lot of time with Lynna..and i mean a LOT)
Haih..life goes on anyway. People have these 'times'. I do too, of course. Tomorrow and Thursday I have my drama evenings. I'm one of the lead parts for the class act. A doggie!! :D Hopefully my mum will take some photos :) And then I'll post them here. And also, due on Thursday is my Science project! I made my project : What is DNA? I even made a model of a double helix! :D
I'm gonna go read Eclipse now. And Mummy, if you are reading this, I AM GOING TO BUY NEW MOON NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!!! AND ALSO, SHAUNA WILL POST ME BREAKING DAWN WHEN WE ARE IN QATAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I MUST HAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D THANK YOU. muahahahahahahahahahahaha! (yay! good evil laugh!)
Hehe..writing ^that up there^ is making me hyper! Better not be. AHHH Haven't drunk my milk yet! Whoopps......
I just wrote a super long post to vent. But then I deleted it off. I don't think I want her to see it. I can't write anymore. Thank you LynnWei for helping me with this.

I always do this but most of the people have already been tagged. So if you haven't done this tag consider yourself tagged.
The movie was quite interesting, slightly odd but I mean that's how movies are these days. They're running out of ideas, so they turn to ...'out of this world' ideas. A good movie I would say. Click here to see it at mysoju! 3.9 out of 5. :P
Initial D is the second movie that Jay acted in, because the first one was Hidden Track where he was in a 'cameo' part. This is all from Wikipedia! :D Initial D was quite good! I remember watching it with cousins :) And Mama liked Jay too! We watched this at Wongs' house!
The third movie by Jay Chou (actually I'm gonna say 2nd becos the first didn't really count cos he wasn't a main character :P) I mean second movie by Jay Chou, is Curse of the Golden Flower! I was really excited to see this movie, especially with my parents! My parents never go to the cinema and I was so happy they were joining us, along with cousins! But the ending of this movie was a bit pointless but that's how stories go anyway.........
Secret! Also a good movie. Directed by Jay Chou! I watched this with Osby and Jazzy! A home movie. Well actually OUR home. So yeah. You can also watch this at mysoju.
AHHH!!!
This is the medal and trophy I got!

AFTER!
It was snowing in London on Sunday! And then the next day, I was on a plane to Doha, Qatar to do the entrance exam for Doha College. My flight on Qatar Airways flight 6 was at 10.50am so I woke up at 6am, ate breakfast and set off to train station at 7.25am. Me and my mum went on the 7.40am train and arrived just before 8am at Heathrow Airport Terminal 3.
