an unimportant post really… i just find these facts amusing.

honey is… after all… the only food that can’t spoil

another round of spelling bee.

hey sweetums. so, i just got home from a spelling bee competition, and i didn’t win again.

xD i make it sound like it’s not a big deal, and it isn’t now. but it was last year, and the last year and the year before it. i joined the spelling bee for 5 years straight and i NEVER… and i repeat, NEVER win. such a sad sad story to tell.. but it’s true. i always go to the final round, but it’s either i win 2nd place, or not win anything at all. :’(

anyways… i just realized that i’ve mispronounced ‘vehemence’ all this time. i was doomed with that word, but if only Ms. Herpreet have pronounced it the way i’ve pronounced it all these years, i could actually go through. oh well, it doesn’t matter && the reason why it didn’t matter was because i wasn’t nervous AT ALL < surpringly -_- i’m ALWAYS nervous. fyi, i’ve always been this small, trembling, little squiggle of a nerveball at the corner of the stage– stage fright has always been my enemy since forever. probably the reason why i wasn’t histerically denying that i’m devastated over not winning the spelling bee was because i know i can spell all the words given in my round. i can actually spell all the onomatopoeia, recalcitrant, recapitulate & thespian and i’m not lying, nor am i overconfident (it might sound like that. but wtv) but i can. and it’s such a relieve to know that i’m not incompetent for the competition when i’m just ‘unlucky’.

the only thing i regret is probably that next year is my last chance to win this thing. i’ve been in the spelling bee since i was in Grade 5. can you believe that? they don’t have the competition on 2006, but i’m graduating next year, and i never won. i would love to feel the victory that i (hopefully will) finally achieve at my last year in high school. but if i don’t win it again… do they have spelling bee competitions in universities? i’d have to find out…

the next thing i regret is not eating. i made a list of what i was going to eat before i went out of the house since i know the bazaar would be like a food haven, but i suddenly didn’t have the appetite to eat. darn it! so i only had this bubble drink and a rather expensive cheesecake and i’m atm munching on a bar of soyjoy before going to the church even though i’m still not hungry.

for now, i will have to sign off. i will be back very very soon though… let’s just hope for a speedy internet connection tonight toodles~

to be a bee.

hey blog. another day had dawned and, i just had breakfast.

slept in again this morning. lol. couldn’t help it. the temptation was too great. walked down the stairs to find that everyone had had breakfast and the leftover piece of bread was sitting in front of my chair, waiting for me to chow it all down. the bad news among all of this is that now i’m having a stomach ache. the ‘thing’ is like twisting my stomach. *whimpers*

anyway, i’ve decided to dedicate today for piano. i’m going to learn all of the techniques, all the skills, all the emotions… i’m going to try my best.

but it’s funny how the definition of ‘best’ alters over time. at some point in the past, you think your best is that much. that much force that you’ve exerted from your body. but through time, you realize that what you gave isn’t good enough. my question is, when is it going to be enough? is it going to be an unending pursuit of it, (like happiness) or will it, at some point, have a limit of its own and tells you that… ‘yes, this is as far as it goes’.

anyhow, i’m going to learn all that fine details of legato, staccato, tone of voice, expressions, emotions…. emotions of heartbreak, of sorrow, of happiness, of cheerfulness, and all the other -ness there is to expression names.

when i see other people trying their best in what they do, i feel ashamed that i cannot be even half as hardworking as they are. people like that always earn my respect. and somehow, rooting from my wishful thinking, i hope that someday, people will respect me… and among other things, respect me because i will always try my best.

until then blog. i shall see you in our next meeting wish me luck~ and good luck to you too.
