first off.

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY CHELSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

which was yesterday the 4th actually! i hope you enjoyed your surprise at the voiddeck yesterday paaaal! :) and i really hope you liked the presents too EVEN THOUGH getting it on saturday was such a crazy coincidental affair.

dree cheryl and i spent most of the early part of yesterday trying to convince chels that we really didn't have anything planned for her. some exerpts showcasing our brilliant attempts that left chels kind of suspicious about everything 'cause she thought we were sadists trying to make her feel neglected on her birthday.

dree: hey pal can i buy you a donut during lunch? we can stick a candle in it and celebrate your birthday!
cheryl: or we could get a stack of 5 waffles for you!
chels: errr okay sure pal!
me: i know i know! you want a cupcake pal?
dree: stupid bovine, they don't sell cupcakes in the canteen.

dree: hey what are your plans for today?
chels: actually... nothing!
cheryl: sorry we can't go out with you today pal!
me: so do you feel neglected? do you feel all alone?
chels: errr not reeeally!

and it went on and on.

i was getting all excited during econs tutorial leading up to lunch period! 'cause i had a MAJOR role to play in our whole plan! haha. i was supposed to distract chels and keep her away from the cake and presents until dree and cheryl were all ready.
so i used the most unsuspicious line ever.

me: hey chels could you help me do my hair later after econs? come with me to the toilet okay?

and since this line gets repeated almost every single day, chels didn't suspect a thing. hoho!
when we got down to the voiddeck, dree and cheryl were no where in sight! so i sat chels down and asked angela to help keep her away from the canteen.
and most conveniently, i had to collect lit notes from the photocopy place just then.
then dree called me and declared an emergency 'cause all the letterings on the cake had been messed up. so after all the big fuss, we took a slow torturous walk to the voiddeck inching our way across the canteen, trying to shield the candles from the fans blowing.
so that was the behind the scene part for you!

what everyone really saw was dree shouting HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAL while holding the cake and the pals singing a birthday song for chels super loudly! :)
i'm glad it all turned out well in the end 'cause saturday was really quite horrific.
i nearly died from shock a couple of times. like when chels saw dree and i out together ('cause we were shopping for her present). like when chels called to ask if this pair of shoes was nice and it was the EXACT same pair that we were planning to get.
when chels called about the shoe i just lost my brains i think.

chels: hey pal do you remember that white shoe with purple buttons that we saw at heeren with cheryl? do you think it's nice?
me: stunned for a while
errr.. yah!
i start to think
hey hold on okay.
(here i tell dree about what's happened and she tells me that i'm rather idiotic)
me: hey actually right... you know what? i don't think the shoe's nice anymore.
chels: HUH?? why'd you suddenly change your mind pal?
me: oh 'cause... i just told dree about the shoe and she said she remembered that it wasn't that nice.
chels: huh? oh but i really like it...
me: i really think it's not worth it. you shouldn't get it!
chels: sigh but i really like it so i think i'll just get it.
me: thinking OH FREAKING NO
pal i REEEALLLY think it's not that worth it. anyway. tell me if you get it okay?

then after i put down the phone..

dree: kel you're such a BOVINE. why did you have to say "tell me if you get it okay"???? what do you mean "tell me if you get it"??? isn't it OBVIOUS?????
me: argh shit lah i know i know it was damn stupid.

well that was the Real saturday story. it wasn't just all about e1!

and today was seriously just such a lousy day. kind of like a continuation of the lousy ending of yesterday.
can you believe it? the class's got MAKE UP PE on friday after school at 310pm!!!!!!!!!!!
ARGH.
okay i'll admit that was possibly partly my fault 'cause i'd taken suchhhh a long time to get my pe stuff from the locker. but still! make up pe on friday just sucks!
then i got back home at 10plus after attending the pope's memorial mass in church and did a grand total of 2 questions of my gp compre.
got up this morning feeling just so damn sick of the world. didn't wanna go to school. didn't wanna wake up. i just wanted to stay in bed and hide.
i was in a majorly irritated mood in school today.
sorry chels if i took my irritation out on you! i really wasn't annoyed with you. it was just the day.
majorly irritated mood was largely caused by drama. and i shall not delve into details here.
but the irritation evolved into me being flat out pissed off and so, the day didn't end well for me again.
and for some strange reason, i felt like crying today. weird huh?
i had this very tensed up feeling in my chest which i knew was due to stress and for several moments in the day, i suddenly stopped 'cause i really felt overwhelmed by everything left undone and everything troubling me.
like whatever was going on in my mind occasionally manifested itself physically in me and made me feel as if i just couldn't go on.

sigh anyway. gp package test tomorrow.
and i'm still stuck with that gp compre! it's like irritating chewing gum under your shoe that doesn't seem to ever go away.
