Once upon a december

music keeps me alive.


just finished watching 17again on my mac. HAHA. zac efron! ha. nice show (: no matter how warped the story is, still made me cry in the end. am looking for the first love movie that i didnt cry in.
hmmms.


anyways,
EOSparty, though not as hyped up and grand-scale as last year, was still nice, sweet like b&j icecream (: all smileys and happy faces! screwed up some of my singing which i thought was really bad :(( grrr. i need to stop screwing up man.

well, and i finally released my poor terrapin into nanyang lake before i left school tonight. jon gave me time to say my goodbyes while he drove to nanyang lake and i was feeling damn shitty with that poor sad animal in my hands and he said,
"it's not like you didnt takecare of it, the fact is you did give it want it needed, so stop feeling shitty abt this cause it's not your fault okay"

haha. he helped me put it into the lake cause i cldnt. wells, shians and ryane were there too. bye terrapin! :(
and jon went to full blast his aircon and then the windscreen started to get blur. and then, i started to make handprints on the windows and screens. lol SO FUN HAHA. little girl i know right. but it's just like titanic! and good for him, he didnt miss the clementi ave6 exit this time,
DESPITE THE MULTI-TASKING IN TALKING TO ME.
improving dude, great job!



REMEMBER TO EAT YOUR COUGH MEDICINE PLS.
then we'll do even better for vday duet okay (:



highschoolmusical feeling!

dancing where the stars go blue,
dancing where the evening fell,
dancing in my woodenshoes
and a wedding gown.



IT'S OVERRRRRRRR!!!

the feeling of sleeping on my bed + waking up knowing that i can continue sleeping + continue sleeping = SHIOK!!
was doing my last GD PDF yesterday in the MD room and when i was FINALLY done, i burnt my cd, thrust it in the air! and then aud and faisal cheered while i placed it in my cd cover and ran to cindy's office, 30mins late for submissions but it was not that bad.
she loaded my stuff, and even clicked to look through all the pages (and shit, i had more pages than bryan. HAHA) but she seems quite okay with it. and she decided to keep my cd cover after seeing my devastated face, clinging onto my cdcover which i specially made for my proj and for the submission while i realised she's just loading the pdf and then giving back our cds.


but overall this semester,
4 packets of RC paper,
3 packets of FB,
uncountable rolls of doublesided tape,
alot of softcopy works! HA (yay save money!)

the doublesided tape can either be your best craft friend by pasting your nice paper properly, or your worst craft enemy that can ruin your nice paper as well.


but WELLS, i think i did okay this semester, probably not as good as last sem i supposed, got the feeling. but doesnt matter! just want to chill, relax, sleep, breathe. and i love spending time in the MDroom (: SO HAPPY CAN JAM RIGHT AFTER MY SUBMISSIONS! it's like the ultimate de-stressing remedy! nice songs, guitar, piano, drums, good music. and MDpeople are so awesome as well, awesome bunch to be with, and to create great music together as well. it's seriously wonderful beyond words. and just learnt abit of guitar today (:

and tomorrow's EOS!! icecream, sausages, chillax music, acapella, movie. should be a good good night. dueting with jon! better get the last part correct! if not im going to spoil the song by bursting into laughter at the last part. LOL.



jon shared this vid with me, thought it was koools.
love yourself!



okay tomorrow sportsday with church people.
KEEP FIT YAY!
ciaos.

and im sorry for clearing things up.
im sure you'll find someone nice too.

NAISSSSS.


1paper, 2submissions,1exhibition
and typography is really really nearing its ends and thankGod danne pushed back the deadlines! but yay, she wanted to buy my scarf! LOL. this is the convo of the day:

el went to vclab to join kwok, vonne and the other dwellers to eat her share in phil's shepherd's pie which was "ELENA BETTER COME, LEFT ONE THIRD" and so i went there... wooo, it was good (: goodjob phil! and then when im more or less done i just said,

el: "erm okay done."
then i took my stuffs to leave and vonne was like,
vonne: "i like how she just finished what she wanna do and just goes okay done and like just leaves"
el: "i know right!"
and kwok was still processing what vonne said and while i was walking out,
el: "ya like one night stand."
vonne: "omggg elena!! hahahaaha"
kwok: "WHATTTTTT"




(:
and i think you're awesome too!

el wrote,
"everytime i find myself being nice to people, but today i've met my match"



thankyou for the thousand and one nice things you did for someone whom you regarded as a nice girl today. shall not type all the nice things if not people will think i ill-treat you when you did it all yourself. and yes, thankyou for today too!
(:

it's 2am! and i dont feel like doing anything anymore cause i think i've done enough for the day (: so tired out after doing all my media mockups for GD in the vclab today. it's a saturday, and i cant believe that, me junyi pow ben and peiwen took so long just to find a place to eat dinner cause everywhere was freaking crowded, ON A WEEKEND. and the most ultimate thing was that, subway ran out of bread wth!
freaking many muggers in ntu this week.
and i went home with ning today, first time of the sem (: nice one babe. let's catch up at delmar after exams!!


just to share!

weiqi showed me 迷路兵's latest mv!
(filmed by david, jeanie..)


with their latest song and complicated narrative -.- . and he specially told me abt his extra air time at the back where he closed the pocket watch -.- nice la weiqi. hahaha. 迷路兵 had an autograph session today and he told me and selamat not to go down. lol. i wanted to do a "you are not a cool person" board for him HAHA. private joke. hope it went fine, after practicing that piano part again and again!
wq and selamat coming over for random jamming sessions recently has made me realise how therapeutic music is and its wonderful power to destress. thankyou (: with wq around and listening to my playing, i hope i can improve! more jamming-to-destress soon!
i hope i dont turn into a 迷路兵fan after watching so many of their youtube songs. lol but they're good. nice. weiqi so cool siols! haha.


and i've been into music recently
must be all the hanging out in md room.
and my love for music got fueled when i watched the random highschoolmusical-look-alike movie called camprock on disney channel! LOL. and it gave me the drive to make my own music! and this is my fav song from the show.



doesnt it makes you want to get a guy who can sing for you in the future? (: someone whom i can share the love of music with. maybe that will be the time when i write my first song then.
and whats even more appropriate, i talked to someone who really loves music just like me today.




and i need to start my post-exams to-do list!! WAHAHA.
BACK TO TYPE DESIGN POSTER.

hv been going over to s3.1 nowadays to do our silkscreening for our type design application.
seeing those grey walls, black doors again,
SUPER COLD ROOMS =.=
canB bubbletea, vegetarian, malay, 30cent drink!

me and rene found ourselves remeniscing on all our foundation memories. when we walked to s3.1 EVERYDAY. up the slopes. and how he was damn sian of michael's 4d and james
rene: "ah! late already late already!"
el: "9.15!! and 9 for michael days"
LOL

and how rene will blame me for walking over to his hall late. BUT THEN HE ALSO ALWAYS OVERSLEEP and wake up sleepily opening the door lor.
"morning rene!"


remember remember,

OG4!! delcon. LOL.


30mins into foc and songloo knew that i was loud enough to play this game. I DIDNT KNOW I WAS NX TO KIYOKO! yay we both hv golden hair then. lol.
eileen, yuxian, kiyo, me, mimi, lydia, shaoning, iffah.
nice. haha


jialiang, joshua, rene, yongjia. nice laaaa. HAHAHA


foc bash. freaking lian, omgggg -.-


hey my union rep poster! did i say that i beat a year2 and year3? haha. and i used paint to do this. PAINT okay.


"ghost and whales" HAHA
FDN G6!


and the days where we hated jialiang and his camera! LIANG TEH!
rolled up newsprint, my a3 sketchbook, red bag, porkballs shirts,
says it all for foundation man.


steamboat at rene's round2 soon! (:


come to think of it,
i missed foundation year. quite alot. we had quite alot of fun. i remembered me flinging slipper at jialiang in openlab at 3am in the morning! inspired by "the swing" by that german artist. and walking back to hall at 7am after cui-ing in openlab. rocking to songs during foundation drawing. loving ina so much. snapping the numbercards at can4.

life then felt simplier, carefree, fresh (inevitably! -.-)
not that im not happy now, but maybe life then was nicer and less complicated.




just browsing through my blog and found this post (:

29th July 07
mood: sleepy
music: stentorian - fly

CAME BACK FROM ADM ORIENTATION!

we all screamed! >:) still suffering from camp injuries, like bruises, cuts... and muscle aches! havent been exercising *guilty* but frankly speaking, i miss times in orientation.
seniors bullying us, initiation, soap, water, beach (:

today, my mind was swimming with thoughts of orientation.. and post-camp syndrome of playing the no1 wastetime game, ji niu nai! ((: I WANT TO PLAY THAT! but i guess, even tho we're not a huge big faculty, and our orientation is not as large scale, but we're like one cosy family (: small but happy (: hap-hap-happy!! and all of us hold this common passion, ART! which is uber coool. havent got an art clique before (:

I MISS CAMP
and i LOVE my og. want can i say about one of the most enthu og of ALL?! cheer cheer cheer loud loud! and with awesome ogls that talks alot too (: girl talk.


and,
eyecandy #1 left me with a partybash song (:
eyecandy #2 left me with a bruise mark of a dodgeball shape, during beach games.




why bryan, that's you, eyecandy #2! i can't believe it, omg! HAHAHA.
good times.

NO TIME TO CAREFULLY WRITE OUT NICE POST



in this angsty/stressful submission period, im reminded of this pic i took in mg staffroom probably four years ago.
stupid to-know fact but do you know it requires less muscles to smile than to frown? (:


here's a little recipe for a less stressful work process:
ZENNESS + random 10min jamming session with awesome bass guitarist who is quite-owning animation, with drummer who was waiting for his rendering to complete + piano + nice dinner with someone who really needed it + good comfort food to munch on (exercise comes after submissions) + random hugging and smiling to whoever you meet + SLEEP (come on, try)

my thanks.
thankyou zen for your mass-tin-lunch/movie session, what a takeaway from the mac screen
thankyou ben for peering into md room with boomsz hair and a sleepy 'morning'
thankyou phil for coming into md room once in a while with cute shorts. heee! DRUMS.
thankyou ryane for ya dynamic screams and smiles and whining that actually made me smile
thankyou rene for treating me bubbletea (OOPS NEVER PAY) and fun silkscreen session.
thankyou all you VCL people for making dreadful life in the lab actually survivable.





so keep the angste level down. breathe.
clear-mind
ASSKICKIN WORKS (:

it's going to be 5am and I AM STILL AWAKE (:


anyways,
benben has something really beautiful posted up on his fb wall and it's so nice i had to post it here:

On this day, God wants you to know...
"that faith is exactly what it takes to get through uncertainty. Faith is not necessary when you know how things are going to work out, - that's knowledge. It's in the time of unknowing that having faith is what sees you through to the other side. Faith is what gives you strength. Faith is that light in your heart that keeps on shining even when it's all darkness outside. Now is the time to keep that faith alive!"


how true is that (: faith is what keeps people going even when things are not. and it is what drives and holds people up during the unexplainable, giving them that extra reason to be assured that it is safe in God's hands and definitely something that keeps us believing.
just what me and ben were discussing today! so amazing God's timing (:



and this is the unforgettable part-of-convo-of-the-day
*ellustrate: sometimes i really think its cause im like hardworking
*ellustrate: ultimately im rather stupid

and so for my fb wall,
On this day, God wants you to know...
"that you've been driving yourself too hard lately. Sure, there is time to invest yourself fully into work, but there is equally important time for joyful resting. And for you, this time is now. What is the absolutely most wonderful little treat you can give yourself? Do it today."
and so,
z!

just came back from studying with gareth and yeow at serene's macs! lol. yay, brings back memories how the three of us threaded the same educational paths together. back in jc when we used to go for dr ng's chemistry tuition after church and how after lunch, I ALWAYS DOZE OFF and only wakes up with dr ng shoots me a question. blur!~

"can you pull the tail to the front so it looks like a dig" -at his 3d character rig

choir.

oh man so much to blog about! hahaah.
this is my singing group for choir exam (:

everyones so pro that i feel so humbled while singing with them. ezra's loud tenor voice, weiqi MI LU BING stable bass, sophia's and audrey's power altos, and lyndsey's sweet sop voice. it felt wonderful singing with them. the harmony, nice. and i felt that God really brought us tog as we found out during our first and last prac on tues night. so late that we knew tt we were all bros and sisters in christ awww, and we started talking about worship and music during break. ezra felt encouraged seeing all of us coming tog (: let's meet up again, christmas is coming! ezra so happy. hahahaha.
"COUGH, latte!"

and i think we did well during exam!
"in excelsis deo!"

and was really glad to also know fellow admer weiqi! eh he's keyboardist from MI LU BING! i know celebrity, yay. haha. awesome, looking forward to future jamming nights to neutralise the stress! and he's going to help me on the piano for zen's film, great (:





and before i go chiong somemore,
ending quotes from dear junyi,

"elena, youre such a jc girl,
cutest girl in adm!"
"elena youre really damn different la,
so dense, everything packed into one!" —loveyou babe. jiayou!

had such an epic nine hour darkroom session yesterday night!
went in at 11pm, and officially came out at 8pm, actually 9pm was the time the LAST print was put to dry.
ONE MORE DARKROOM NIGHT TONIGHT.


and i need to STOP LEAVING MY LOCKER KEY ON MY LOCKER LOCK! ARH! ><
i think i really need to sleep and wake up properly man. babe junyi helped me keep it over the weekend, i just found out i hang it there this morning. and i just went to collect it from jialiang 5mins ago.
darns.

it's one of the thing tt i find amusing about myself.
other than,
turning the wrong direction to the right when going to the toilet on the left EVERYTIME when i walk out of BOTH photog crit room and digipainting lab. and it's seriously literally everytime.
and STILL pushing the door into adm instead of pulling after 2.5years in adm.



and bryan was just saying that cause i know he reads my entries diligently every time, i will not dare to blog bad about him. well. here's

THINGS I HATE ABOUT BRYAN (:
1) his rss reader which gives him instant notification WHENEVER i post. (and i bet he's going to read this within 1 hour upon posting)
2) he is freaking stalking me and my blog and hence knows alot of things in my life.
3) i offered him jellybeans and he said, "no, because boys are stupid"
4) he called me loner girl eating her dabao lunch in vc workshop!
5) he tempted me with pringles chips sour cream which is going to make me FAT.
6)

7) "I HATE YOU BRYAN!"
((:



"JEEELLEEYBEANN" -jinping.
go hear him saying it, FREAKING HILARIOUS! we got so high yesterday night just say "jeeeellybean" and "toniiight" in photog room ytd (: high on fixer srsly.

it's elena's little move of offering small sweet things in life to brighten up any stressed up admer's day (:
one sweet bean goes a long long way! and i think it's going to finish.
nanci took like 398447301840 beans. benben came to find me and just smiled, "eh!" and took it AUTOMATICALLY. "i love jellybeans" *grins* most zhi dong person ever! and bob's bloodthirsty expression when he sees the bottle, omg! and his eyes trail it like a freaking hungry hyanna! you secretly ate my beans ytd while i was 'sleeping'!




nice to know random happy things still happen
in this chiongs period.

http://ellustrate.wordpress.com/2009/11/07/alexandre-wollner-and-fibonacci/
check out my latest post on wollner lecture on my portfolio site (:


THIS IS THE CRUCIAL 3 WEEKS LEFT.
IT'S DO OR DIEEEEEE.
choir exam/concert, photo submissions, digipainting submissions, branding submissions, type submissions, contempsea exam.
and so no more emoing, no more distractions for el,
it's CHIONGS ALL THE WAY,
and hopefully nail it like last sem, or try to.
like what jared did back in jc day, the chuckles cheer! give me a "C"!
GO EL GO!




just went for ele-el twin, ele's twentyfirst and i got reminded of what we abide to back in jc days, our motto of boys being stupid and how she wanted to pour acid on w******'s face. she took the emo away then. thanks for reminding me of what it is to stand up for yourself.

"Boys are really stupid! Let's meet after this exams okay, no putting it off. Love you dear, thanks for taking the time to come for my party :) "


stay pretty sweetheart. you know chuckles love you.



HAHA I LOVE THIS PIC. SO HIGH ON THE ART D! shall stay in this mood for chiongs period.

and know what,
i dont see too hot to be straight online anymore! eh why!! darns. lol. :X

THIS IS 2DOLLARS CAN2 CHICKEN RICE,
I PAID 2DOLLARS! BUT uncle 今天请客!
add veg, add egg, add toufu!
was super shocked with mouth wide open when i saw my plate. and so i used ezra's phone and snap the plate! and lucky ezra shared the extra food with me cause it was ALOT. lol.



it's 2minutes before type class,
and i haven't been this tired before for the sem, even after a morning bath...
STAY AWAKE, KEEP IT ZEN EVERYONE O.O

totally zonked out after staring at type design through the mac screen till 5.30am.
(wait, 5mins later and danne's actually not in class. omggg and i did so much. sleeps.)






but guess what,
i saw too hot to be straight AGAIN ytd. how come i saw him two days straight nowadays i also dont know
and it was beyond "hi"! HAHAHA. small happy thrills that makes life better in this stressful period.



"persevere and you'll get through" -too hot to be straight

http://ellustrate.wordpress.com

that's my new portfolio website! hahaha. i FINALLY got it up! hv been dragging it since i got stuck with flash a semester ago! but i heed brother's advice and "JUST USE WORDPRESS FIRST, you just need a place to put up your works, flash can learn later" and one fine day, i decided to just sit down to do it.

and once i sat down 10am
and got up from the SAME SPOT at 1am!
save lunch and dinner, but i got abit obsessed with it and had to finish it that day.

so enjoy!




and i think life have been treating me fairly nicely these few days. maybe it's the emotional liberation that has given me this sudden euphoria, and making me strangely happy sometimes. it's true that life's changed and has turned a corner, but im getting used to life like that. it's true that it's pretty tough, when he was once everything to you, and you felt like yr world revolved ard it, to suddenly feel like he's gone, removed, left, maybe not entirely, but then you realised tt life has to go on and has went on. i hv experienced the lows of lows, but i think im picking myself up! true there are times when all the thoughts just come to me, you think abt how nice it was before, you overwhelm yourself and feel so terrible tt you feel like crying and you cry... but there were times when i realised that life is way more than that. last time when my attention was so localised is now on everyone else. then yr niceness is not on someone but on everyone! encouraging zhikai, accompany jl, cui-bei for zen, buy dinner for kerx, CAPStalk with ben... and then you start to realise all the nice ppl who hv always been around! kiyo always being there, shian to teach me how to ride bicycle, bryan and nice msn chat, ryane's violence tendencies, tehteh and skipping down slope! and my night has just turned brighter. and probably this is when i officially move on ( : maybe.


be part of elena moving on campaign!
(or moved on campaign, as what ckx likes to call it, thanks for hoping in me )
totally open secret. i even told bob abt it already.
drop me a smile anytime, anyday because a smile a day, keeps emo away!

and thinking back, i know halloween's supposed to be the festival of the dead and some christians disapprove going to attend halloween things because of its sinister, almost satanic connotation. but i dont know.. i dont really think it's wrong just dressing up because it's halloween and treat it as something fun, like a crazy costume party. think all of us had lots of fun, simply enjoying the music and for once, a night without stress, without macs, and without adobe! comeon, we worked so hard....

but then the nx day, it's back to the labs, and darkroom and back to work but boy was halloween fun still. YUPPIES!
maybe it's time to return to my anthonypoon readings too! ciaos.





i hardly know you but why are you on my mind.

since when hv i turned so sian with life that i had to meet buddy like immediately. haaa.

monday,
another funny encounter at the cai fan stall:
went to can2 to buy dinner with yisheng before halloween prac, and the cai fan stall doesnt fail to amaze me all the time. because the lady vendor and my favorite short golden hair, small eye ahbeng vendor were taking turns to serve people, just nice the ah beng served the person in front of me so naturally the lady serves me right. but once the lady scooped rice for me, THE AHBENG VENDOR HURRIEDLY GO AND WANT TO TAKE THE PACKET FROM HER! and he was like "come la come la! this one i take!" the lady was the best! she refused sternly and was like, "不要!" then she looked at me and say, "he always like that one, when it comes to girls like you" LOL. then the ahbeng vendor still continue to pester here and there with that strange grin. i think it's getting more and more amusing.


and my encounter with cai fan uncles hv extended to beyond can2 and ntu!:
went to pioneer to buy dinner before halloween prac AGAIN, on sat after nike run and i happened to be holding a starbucks balloon. oh well, i like cai fan >< so i went to the stall, then the uncle asked me with the almost similar expression, "小妹，可以给我你的气球吗？“
then i just said can lor. he keep pestering me, so in the end i just stretched and wanted to pass the balloon over, and he was like "it's okay!" =.=
and then even the cashier uncle also want the balloon which i also just passed him then he also say nevermind.
waste my hand action.
but same smile, same words, "改次再来!"

cai fan uncles are all the same everywhere.
super amusing.



the fun things in life that keeps you going!

since we're all in the halloween mood now,
was chillin with kiyo in md today and came across this song. it's so dark and emo but i like it. such a saddd song : ( but sometimes in life, shit happens, we step on shit, we get our feets dirty and we try our best to get rid of the stains.




admhalloween this thursday! night of good jamming and dressingup. and am so tired of work and sch now, that hv this urge to go parteyyy! REALLY need to unwind mannnns.

thurs night, was just talking to shians after md prac and before disappearing into the darkroom never to come out after a few hours, and he told me i seems to be abit off these few days and not chirpy. wells... was great just chilling and talking. and we made a funny analogy using our very sad terrapin.


"and so, about the sad terrapin who is just probbing himself up on the stones the whole day, refusing to eat, we know that it will not last long, yet we still went ahead to buy uv lamp, clean the tank, get a heater, feed it still, and continue to take care of it when we know it will result to nothing. and sometimes we're just like that. and maybe sometimes we'll even end up like the terrapin, floating lifelessly in the water and reacting to just little nudges from the outside."





actually
am really tired from the week... thurs and fri nights are so xiong, left the darkroom at 5am yesterday and in my fixer-exhausted state, i switched on the lights when i had a few small pieces of RC paper left on the table stage O.O!! ARHHH!
okay,
NIKE 10K TOMORROW!
