Caraphernelia,

Burnt out.

2012-02-02T18:35:00.000+08:00

I've been staying back from school everyday so far, and I can honestly say that I'm burnt out already. The earliest I go home each day is 4PM. I'm just tired already.

On a side note, signature drive is going well. :)

I just love little vintage trinkets and charms like these, I never know why, but I just do. :)

-Karlynn.

We're far from the usual.

We woke up at 5AM just to go to Klang to stand for the guard of honour under the sun for about 4 hours, without being allowed to move our bodies. Not to mention the stinging heat during our rehearsal the other day. But we went, and manages to stand it for those 4 hours.

This is the only picture I have of the 5 of us for now. Been training with these 4 girls for over 2 months, and believe me, it wasn't easy. We has our disagreements and conflicts and whatnot but we managed to pull through it anyways. We ended up getting gold for Short Case and silver for Home Nursing, but nevertheless, we were still more than disappointed. Oh well, there's always the next competition. Btw, pardon our eye bags, we stayed up the whole night bleaching, tumbling dry, last minute trainings, polishing shoes, eating kitkats, pringles, and sewing on our badges and ended up with only 1 hour of sleep. I kid you not.

2012-01-17T17:50:00.002+08:00

MUST. TRY.

Again, and again again.

2012-01-12T21:40:00.000+08:00

I apologize (I mean, that's basically what I do now, every time I post something here) for being faithful here in my blog. I just realized that I haven't even posted anything this whole year! So this my first post of the year. So. Yeah.

Things have been hectic (I feel like my whole schooling life is being described by this word). But really, it has been. We usually get like one whole stack of homework to complete with more piling up from other work as well. And not to mention that I have to stayback practically everyday for training.

I can't say much now, cause there's a whole lot of work that I have to complete by tomorrow, so I have to go now. But I promise, I'll blog as much as I can when things settle down.
-Karlynn.

2012.

2011-12-31T22:15:00.000+08:00

I suppose this is the part where I go all nostalgic about the year that has past and do some cheers for the up coming year. I don't know, I suppose everyone just expects it. Well, I suppose this year has been a heck of a year, but since when were they never?

But anyways, today has been a hectic, hectic day. Woke up at 6.15AM to get ready to be at Marissa's house by 7.00AM. Gathered at SMKDU by 7.30AM and waited for the bus till 7.50AM. Had rehearsal for guard of honour for the Trooping of the Colours, which is a quite big event in St John. It was blazing hot, I tell you. I could feel the whole right side of my face (the sun was shining from that direction) burning. Sweat was trickling all over and the mot stupid part was that it kept trickling right into my eyes or past my eye, making it look like I just cried. But when we do senang diri or sedia, you can practically see most people having sweat dripping from their hair. I'm not joking, we had to stand there for ages, not moving AT ALL. We had some short breaks in between, with cans of 100 Plus to accompany us. I think I have some blisters on my feet now D:

Left the KPS area HQ at about 12.30PM and rushed like a ninja to get ready to go to OU. Went to OU and had lunch at Sakae Sushi (t was my dad's birthday yesterday) and ate ate ate :B later on, I had Tutti Frutti.

Reached home at about 5.30PM and just feel asleep on my bed till my woke me up at 7.00PM. Went to church for the year end service, left at about 9.30PM.

And now, I'm blogging. I'm in the right mind to take nap now (I'm so tired D:) and waking up later to countdown. DECISIONS.

And on a side note, I really need to clean my table.

Nah, maybe next year. (I know, this is a lame joke)
-Karlynn.

Cause I can't look you in the eyes and say.

2011-12-29T00:39:00.001+08:00

Just in case you guys are wondering which part of the world have I disappeared to or whether I have been eaten by lions along the way, let me assure you that I'm still safely tucked in my bed, blogging, while waiting for my hair to dry. My chatbox have been spammed with the adver bots and I'm gonna delete them right after I post this post (and I also read the notification from ShoutMix about a week ago. thiz iz so sad :( ). And now I'll try to drag this post as long as possible to update you with what has been going on in my life lately.

Basically for the first few days after I've stopped blogging, I've been attending my holiday training (as usual). After that, I went to Kangar/Penang, following my mum for a work tripon the 13th and came back on the 14th. After that, I went for the annual State Cadet Camp (for those who've been reading my blog faithfully, remember the camp that I said there were 400 campers last year? There were 500 this time) from the 17th till 21st. Met people I've known but never came to speak to them before, met new people which I'd hopefully never see again in my whole life, and more than ever, gained my confidence to be able to speak out (I was group leader for Group V *does a peace sign because it looks like a V*).

Well, I left camp on the 20th night at about 11PM because ~~I was so sad that I lost my shoe :(~~ I had to go to Cherating the next day. Left for Cherating at 8AM the next morning, had a whole lot of fun, and realized a lot of things that were very much different than when I was younger.

Reached home on the 23rd at about 4PM, quickly got out my laptop to search for last minute chords, then packed my laptop, grabbed my halfway-done hula skirt, my laptop bag, a change of clothes and a towel, and a mop, and rushed to the Seaport Divisional Year End Party. Had a whole lot of fun being in the Music Department, and getting out of game that involves many accidental/onpurpose shoves in to the pool. Pull out our very impromptu performance, with me and Marissa on the guitar and some other random people singing along. We sang Feliz Navidad :) After all those, we finally could take a dip at the pool at about 10.55PM and we were asked to get out by the guards at 11PM. Reached home at about 12.30PM and finally collapsed on my bed..

..just to be awakened the next morning and rushed to go buy ingredients and baked for the whole day. The amount of cookies I baked could practically feed a whole army (i'm not joking). I baked about 5 times the usual amount I usually bake (and that is A LOT.).

AND IT WAS CHRISTMAS! =D *cue jingle bell playing* Went over to aunt's house (it's a yearly tradition) and got to see my many many cousins and nieces which I've never really realized how much I actually enjoyed being with and missed them. Has a blast of a night.

Was awakened again then next day (can't a girl get her sleep?!) to Kanna's Curry House with my other aunt and uncle. Ate like a pig *points at my brother as well*.

After everything dies down a little, been attending trainings again (I was supposed to go to Kepong for training today, but I wasn't feeling well. so yea). Tomorrow (or today, since it's already 12AM+), I'll be going to school to get ready for orientation and also on the 30th, for orientation.

And now, I really need to go to sleep before I pass out. Goodnight everybody!
-Karlynn.

2011-12-25T16:17:00.001+08:00

Merry Christmas!

-Karlynn.

2011-12-13T23:22:00.002+08:00

Will be taking a little break from here for now, will be occasionally floating around here.

This.

2011-12-06T12:39:00.001+08:00

Outburst.

2011-12-03T21:08:00.000+08:00

It annoys me how much every time I open this 'New Post' page with the intention of saying a thousand things I feel like ranting about, things I'm annoyed about, things I felt like that should be said, but in the end I type out a whole wad of words that could fill a whole page, feel bad or feel like 'Why should people read this on my blog?', and just backspace everything and click the little 'X' on the tab. I'm making a little rule for this very post, not to backspace anything (except spelling or grammar errors).

Here I go.

I get annoyed with people who try to think that they are something, or they have this trait, and feel the need to tell the whole world about it and go all like "Oh hey, I'm ________ and I'm awesome that way!". It just annoys me so. much. Stop trying to be something y- I almost backspaced this whole passage lol. -ou try so hard to be.

Apart from that, people who change so much, and then go, 'Why do people change? I hate that," seriously? Look at yourself. Look at what you've become. And you still have the nerve to say that? I'm sorry, but I'm not saying that I like people changing or whatsoever, cause I do hate the very fact that people change. But change is sometimes what makes things better as well.

Okay. I should really stop now before I explode this whole post with hatred/anger/whatever.

P.S: The person who reads this would straight away know that this is them (even though the chance for them to stumble upon my blog are close to nothing, unless they're some silent stalker), just to clear the air up, I'm not angry of you, or hate you, or anything like that. I can't even express how I feel. -__-

-Karlynn.

2011-12-01T00:01:00.004+08:00

I posted this picture up a year ago and I'm pretty much quite surprised at how fast time passes. Things change and nothing stays the same, I can honestly say that I'm a much different person compared to who I was before. Change may sometimes be good, may sometimes be bad, might be good to others but also might be intolerable to some. But hey, there's no pleasing everyone. Heads up for the last month of the year, make the best of it, and we're on to 2012!

-Karlynn.

"But we'll start with forever"

2011-11-29T22:39:00.000+08:00

Spent the day at Sunway Pyramid yet again with the same bunch. Reached there at about 10.30AM and we (Marissa, Yong, Zhi Quan, Martin, me) went ice skating. Skated till about 2PM and I still couldn't skate on my own, being the scaredy cat I am. I made a record of only falling down once this time! *cue cheers and applause* Afterwards we had McD for lunch again, and we finally went for our movie. We watched Breaking Dawn, as you can see on the 2nd picture (I have no idea why there's the word berita harian on it though) and it was overall a good movie, but the ending was pretty much crap /: 'nuff with that in case I'm ruining it for anyone else. In the end we waited at Popular again while I went to read Archie comics.

It was a really, really good day =]

-Karlynn.

And we wait, wait, wait for the end to change.

2011-11-28T00:35:00.000+08:00

It's been a long, hectic, but exciting week and here's a new week. December's almost here and it seems so ridiculous how things are going so fast, but I'll keep the same old cliche things I'd normally say for some other time. December is going to be a very, very busy month for me, so full speed ahead!

-Karlynn.

Think that we got more time.

2011-11-28T00:16:00.000+08:00

One day, I'm going to travel around the world to capture the memory of various breathtaking sceneries. I'd travel to places to take in the scenery with my very own eyes, and not just looking at photographs. I want to have the feeling of being there, taking in every sound, every second of it. The feeling of not wanting to leave, the feeling of being swept away, unable to blink, speechless. I want that.

-Karlynn.

2011-11-24T23:18:00.005+08:00

ASDFGHJKL WAAAAANT. :(

Don't be scared, I ain't going no where.

2011-11-23T23:16:00.000+08:00

Spent the day at Sunway Pyramid with the usual bunch today. Marissa's class was having their class party at Papa John's while me, Martin, Yong and Aiman ate at McD. We spent the rest of the time scurrying from Toys R Us to a pet shop, to limping to Guardian to buy plasters because of a blister I got, to running around like mad people (that's only Yong lah) at Jusco. Saw a lot of SPians there, some were there was their class parties, some just walking around, some working part time. Finally met up with Marissa and the others at Popular. Spent the rest of the time at the bowling alley watching them play, since I wasn't too keen on playing (okay, fine, I suck at bowling). We then spent the rest of the time walking around and sat down to eat ice cream. We then spent an hour at Popular, Marissa and I reading Archie comics, while Martin was reading magazines about cars and Yong reading '100 last minutes ways to study'. My mum then picked us up and sent us to Marissa's house, where I read more Archie comics as they watched TV, and finally Ethan came, and we spent the time playing cho tai ti and mah jong. I ate pizza and spaghetti for dinner, and then my brother picked me up for Baskin Robbin's Wednesday special.

It was a well spent day.

-Karlynn.

And your actions speak louder than words.

2011-11-22T21:20:00.003+08:00

A typical day for me would start with my alarm going off with my loudest ringing tone at 7AM. Then, I would drag myself out of bed and get ready. I would have definitely reached the park before 8AM (because the fear of being late and having to do additional pumpings frightens me) for St John training. We would then practice our marching or first aid and having 5 minute breaks in between. It ends at about 11AM, and I would then either go to Marissa's house or walk over to DE Bistro before going over to Marissa's. I would then spend the rest of my evening there, playing mah jong or cho tai ti (I just spelled it out according how I think it sounds like), reading Archie comics, using the computer, or sometimes just take a nap. Finally, my mum would pick me back home where I'll have dinner and then bathe. Later on at night, I would play mah jong again with my brother, granma or mum with a different sort of snack everytime. I would usually go to sleep at about 1AM or 2AM.

I'm just updating you of how my daily routine would go, just so if you're wondering what has been going on in my life (or just to check if I'm still alive). But fortnately not everyday goes like this, and something new happens everyday.

I am so sorry for the one week delay, but here you go.

Iris turned up in the alike looking dress as me!

The four of us!

Our noms table! Nadia was sitting in front of me but she was taking the picture so yea.

The food was GOOD.

The place!

The Form 1s and I =)

The Form 2s! Missing: Nimisha, Martin, Keshyan, Nithya.

Okay, this was so stupid, a bunch of us was just talking and going back inside the restaurant, and I just kept pushing the door and it just won't open, and then I realized it said 'Pull'.

Back in the bus, my cert! =D

It was a good day.

-Karlynn.

Stop the tape, and rewind.

2011-11-19T11:11:00.000+08:00

I apologize for the smell of dead air floating round here. Things have been more hectic than ever for the past few weeks. Now with every aside, I can't really say that I'll be blogging much, I just have so many more things to do, but I promise that I'll update you guys with how my week went (hopefully). Hopefully I won't tire out that easily with this fully scheduled holidays.

-Karlynn.

Leave some morphine at my door.

2011-11-14T19:27:00.000+08:00

I've always felt this lonely and sad feeling whenever I leave the house of my friends' which consists of constant siblings laughter and family bonding to my home where everyone just minds their own business. I would have been family orientated if only they'd been a little nicer to me. I'm not saying that my family treats me bad or anything in that way, but they usually just don't care, or even try to take notice. I always get this sad feeling and all I can do is just look down and keep quiet, and slowly back away, and it always works, cause nobody ever notices me. I've never really had someone to talk about this to, I still don't.

P.S.: This is a really sad way to add a post after not blogging for almost a week.
-Karlynn.

Over the edge.

2011-11-08T19:13:00.001+08:00

I don't know how long it's been since I've been this angry. Just because you don't like me you don't have to hold it against me, you know? Try looking on what's right on not your own liking, cause just so you know, it won't get you anywhere. I'll reserve the rest of my thoughts elsewhere.

-Karlynn.

You can take everything I have.

2011-11-07T01:57:00.000+08:00

Went for neighbour's deepavali open house, Marissa and her siblings ended up coming over and we played mah jong, and they just left (cue for you to look at time post was published). I am tired. It was a good day.

-Karlynn.

You spin me right round.

2011-11-04T19:06:00.002+08:00

Go to Google and type in the search bar "Do a barrel roll"

Gotta love Google. :)

2011-11-03T23:21:00.002+08:00

Can you feel my heartbeat?

2011-11-02T23:54:00.000+08:00

I pretty much screwed up these exams already. Those JPS papers are hard. Or maybe because I just didn't study enough (more like at all). Have been pretty busy with exams and other work, so sorry for the lack of posts coming up. If I have the time I'll put on some queued posts to keep you guys entertained.

-Karlynn.

2011-11-01T20:09:00.001+08:00

We got matching tattoos.

BM was asdAasdaKHJjshkadkjhHKJS today.

Just thought you should know.
-Karlynn.

We're young enough to say.

2011-10-29T18:23:00.000+08:00

Ate nasi lemak for breakfast, and headed off to Ikano at about 12. Walked around with my mum, going up and down the escalators about gajillion times. "Oh, we should check if they have hor fun," *goes down 3 floors* "Err don't have we go check Kluang Station la" *goes up 2 floors* "Aiyo go eat food court only la" *going down halfway* "I SEE SOMETHING I LIKE!" *goes back up* and it kept going on and on. In the end we had lunch at the food court and bought some stuff from Tesco and made our way home. A short while later, Celine suddenly asked me to go to the Chic Pop Street Market with her. We walked around determined to get some clothes but we were probably pretty late, since all the nice clothes were already nabbed. In the end I bought a bag, a chain and a charm which I'm later going to put together myself. The chain and the charm, I mean. Left the place about half an hour ago and I'm finally home.

It was a good day.

Shit I haven't studied.

-Karlynn.

Never planned that one day, I'd be losing you.

2011-10-28T21:45:00.000+08:00

2011-10-28T13:30:00.001+08:00

You're turning heads when you walk through the door.

Craving for rich chocolate ice cream.

Baby, you light up my world like nobody else.

2011-10-27T22:42:00.001+08:00

Click to enlarge.

Thank you guys so much for the surprise today :')

Today was awesome. Basically my brother brought me to McD for lunch (and I saw Iman and the rest of his bunch of friends there) and when I came home, Celine came in my room with a cake with Nadia, Ji, Marissa, Yong, Zhi Quan, Bong, Martin, Phoebe, Iris, Marvin and Marie. I actually saw Bong's bike on the way to the house lol :B but nevertheless, thank you so much for the surprise today :') Spent the rest of the day eating, playing cluedo, mahjong, numerous other game using playing cards, playing the guitar, using the laptop. Its been a great day compared to all the other days I've been having. THANK YOU GUYS! :')

Oh and to mention the candles that just won't go off no matter how much I try blowing them making me look like a total idiot. -__-

-Karlynn.

edit: 700th post! After like 3 years of blogging lol.

After checking out Nat's fully refurnished blog (check it out here!), I realized how long it was since I wanted to get a new layout, so I just picked one out and edited it according to my preference. So here it is! Hopefully this one will last long enough :B

-Karlynn.

2011-10-26T22:04:00.000+08:00

Can I have a polaroid for my birthday pretty please?

Oh well, too late ~

The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed.

Not that of a huge fan of them, but nevertheless, this has got me addicted.

-Karlynn.

Never will be.

2011-10-26T20:43:00.000+08:00

Spent the day at Bharathi's house for her deepavali open house and apart from that, my day was pretty bad so 'nuff said.

Don't worry, it happens every year.

2011-10-26T20:40:00.001+08:00

2011-10-25T20:08:00.002+08:00

Today has been a pretty darn rotten day.

'Nuff said.

2011-10-25T14:17:00.000+08:00

What hurts the most was being so close,

and having so much to say,

and watching you walk away.

Credits to Nadia.

Right next to you.

2011-10-24T19:05:00.000+08:00

"Sigh, we are the ones who keep holding on eventhough it hurts heh.. :-) but someday he's really gonna get a smack and realize what a girl hes missing out on :-) just follow ur heart, we are the strong species of women okie! ;D cheer up ya, dun like to see u sad :-( one day i take you go gai gai okie? Reblogging on tumblr helps alot too! Stay strong and if theres anything just tell me okie?"

Thank you, and this made me cry for about 10 minutes straight at 1 AM in the morning. You know who you are, thank you so much.

-Karlynn.

2011-10-23T22:09:00.002+08:00

Smiling, but we're close to tears.

Taking me so long.

2011-10-22T14:41:00.001+08:00

"You know, you can fake a smile so easily. Even though you're in such a bad mood, you can still smile whenever you want to. And plus, your smile seems so real and natural at the same time."

Thank you, for noticing that.

2011-10-22T10:52:00.001+08:00

'Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be,
Thinkin' maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'll see me waiting for you.

Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste.

2011-10-21T23:37:00.001+08:00

There's this someone I know, she's amazing. Its practically every time there's just something not right and how much I try to hide it, or even sometimes I just fall silent in thoughts without me even noticing it myself, she knows something's wrong. We may not be that close, and most of our conversations only consists of hi's and bye's and a little bit of a conversation about stuff here and there, but yet you could see through all these walls that I put up against everyone. Thank you for that.

-Karlynn.

So sick of love songs.

2011-10-21T23:08:00.002+08:00

This is enough to describe how I've been feeling lately.

2011-10-21T19:47:00.001+08:00

Borrowed.

You gotta take it in.

2011-10-20T23:19:00.000+08:00

Today has been a long day.

Okay I'm lazy to type everything out so I'm just going to bullet it.

Picked Shia Yee and Ranusha from school.
Reached Martin's house at bout 9.15AM.
Watched Syahmee get bullied by Marie.
Waiting for everyone else to come.
Finally started at 10.

-Karlynn.

2011-10-19T10:27:00.002+08:00

From time to time.

2011-10-18T22:05:00.002+08:00

How time pasts so fast, it makes me wonder. Its the 18th all over again, and sorry if you don't understand, and if you do, you just do. Everything's been moving in fast forward but I feel like things have been slowing down lately. It seems like the only thing I look forward to every day is for it to end, and for the next day to come. I just can't wait till the exams are over. The form 1s are lucky, all their exams end by this week. Those lucky ducks are totally going to enjoy their deepavali holiday.

im out.

2011-10-17T22:58:00.000+08:00

I don't know why I'm scared,

I've been here before
Every feeling, every word,

I've imagined it all,

You've been on my mind, I grow fonder everyday.

2011-10-17T22:53:00.000+08:00

It's time to settle down, drop everything for now, and worry for later. If nothing can be done now, might as well just let time sort it out. Will be on hiatus soon enough, won't be blogging as much as I want to, but you'll see some inarticulate life floating around here. Hopefully. Time to hit the books, stop slacking as much as I want to, and lock my new pretty books and save them for later. With everything else aside, time to bake up a storm of my never ending supply of cookies to accompany me along the way.

Till then,
im out.

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile.

Its no matter how happy things would go, how I believe everything is going to better, it'll always end up with me curled up in the corner, wounded by things some people say or do. Every time without fail. What hurts most is that you made me so happy and then you just stop. And then you back off? I don't know what you want to do but all I feel like now is just like a toy that was just played with. Was I just your 'favourite toy' for the week?

And why does this happen to me the most?

Look for the girl with the broken smile.

I've always been the type that prefers to be surrounded by people, but there are times which I'd rather be alone. Those are the times where I just want to lock myself in my room and just do something in silence. Sometimes, I read, sometimes I listen to music, sometimes I just go to sleep. It hurts sometimes when you try your best to be so nice or to be concerned to someone but they just raise their voice and just be.. mean. Sometimes I just give up trying to be nice and just shut up. Sometimes I feel like getting angry and yelling every curse word I know, sometimes I feel like just melting into a puddle of sadness. I just hate how there's nobody I can turn to when I need them most, or at least someone who will be there for me.

I'm just tired of this.

And he's bringing us a surprise.

*talks about English drama*

Are you guys scared of drama?

Never! I AM drama.

It was a pretty okay day, but nevertheless considered as one of my more down days, but it's fine.

I've got lots of things to do! Nadia, Cel and I need to find a song to sing for our Prefect's Hi Tea. So far we thought about Secrets, by One Republic and You and I, by Lady Gaga (but more like the Cimorelli version!). But we've been thinking bout lots of songs before this too so these two might just get cast aside like how the rest did too.

I gotta rush for tuition now, bye!

im out.

Won't tell you his plan.

Me A girl at about the age of 10

I think I'm going to your school when I grow up.

Oh, why? :O

Cause there's kind people like you.

Its amazing how there's always people who'll just say something that makes me feel all better when I feel like crap at that particular moment.

So anyone this time? No? Okay.

2011-10-12T21:18:00.003+08:00

Hey, you're only one year older than me,

so don't act like you're ten years elder.

/annoyed.

This has gotta be the good life.

2011-10-12T20:16:00.000+08:00

Hello!

Somehow, I've been so excited for everything coming up lately, with deepavali, prefect's hi tea, and everything during the holidays!

Anyways, we finally confirm the place for hi tea, and we're stoked! At first, teacher said it was at Crystal Crown hotel, and later on he said it was at Holiday Villa. Finally, yesterday he told that he booked a spanish restaurant in Damansara Perdana! At first we were pretty disappointed, since we were just going to a restaurant, but teacher told us the food there was really good (he went there with the Briged Siber people!) and the setting was really nice. So what did we do? Google, duh.

Anyways, so I immediately googled the place up after I came home, and the place looks really nice. Even the food looks good! Plus, teacher said they were gonna prepare more food for us, since there's 50+ of us. Double yay! Oh, the name of the place is La Gomera, by the way.

/excited

2011-10-10T20:01:00.003+08:00

I hate it when you're having a conversation with someone, and that person just goes offline, without saying bye, or anything. I mean, not when you leave the conversation hanging without anything for half an hour, and then going offline, or there's something wrong with the internet connection, that's fine. But when you're talking? That's just plain rude.

/annoyed/

Talking to the moon.

2011-10-10T10:22:00.000+08:00

Slept early last night, and when i woke up, I saw that I got a text from Jian Ee at 11.37PM last night.

It said:
Wake up even if you slept.. Looks at the moon now! There's a ring around it!

Knowing the pig I am, I didn't wake up to the sound of my phone. Well I tried googling it up today.

Here's your moon ring!

Lol jk.

Here's the 'real' one.

Here's what google says:

A moon ring, also known as a winter halo, is a phenomenon that usually appears in conjunction with a full moon. There appears to be a whitish ring, approximately 10 to 20 times the size of the moon, surrounding the moon and centered on it. It is caused by refraction of the light from the full moon in the ice particles floating in the clouds, as opposed to a rainbow, where light refracts in the water vapor that makes up the clouds. Since this happens most effectively at a certain angle, this ring appears at the bottom of the clouds, and since similar triangles must form between the moon, the refracting surface, and the observation point, the "highlighted" clouds are at approximately the same distance from the moon, creating the image of a ring.

In ancient beliefs it is believed that a moon ring means very warm days before the winter storm. It is also said that the number of days can be counted by counting the stars inside the ring. If you count 15 stars then you have 15 days before a winter storm is to come.

Some people said that it a sacred thing and that it means something to happen on the 9/10/11, but basically, it's not.

Larithon 2011 @ SKKT

2011-10-08T22:46:00.000+08:00

Hey ya'll.

Visited SKKT today, they were having their Larithon. Saw a lot of old friends, old faces, new attractions. Here's some photos to keep you entertained.

A new attraction this year, the water with ball thingy floating with you inside (not sure what they call it). Apart from that they had the usual pony riding (you can see it in the background of the first picture), and bouncing castles.

People I hung out with today, Aqif, Syahmee, KY and Zayd.

Aqif and I coincidentally wore exact same red converse sneakers today. The other shoe is Syahmee's.

KY, Zayd and I walked over to 7E to buy maggi (its like our tradition to do this). KY managed to pour hot water in her cup noodle, but I had to wait or them to refill the hot water dispenser.

Walked round the school back and forth, in the end, we went to the park and basically swinged around a lot.

Apart from that, we just sat in the tunnel thingy, all 5 of us, cramped up in there, talking nonsense and sweating away (the weather was SO HOT). Here's Aqif trying to call Nadia to check with our plan.

Swinged around more, and it started drizzling, and we made our way back to the school and the rain started pouring.

Eco Carnival @ Sri Aman.

2011-10-01T00:49:00.000+08:00

It was an awesome day. -280911

I haven't been blogging much, been busy lately, but I will be back.

-Karlynn.

I wish nothing but the best for you.

2011-09-25T21:31:00.001+08:00

The very tiring day, woke up at 5AM, reached school by 6AM, practiced the script and helped out whatever I could.

The stage! Waiting for the VIPs to finish checking the store and files.

Aiman and I, the emcees of the day. =)

Our script! There was damn a lot of papers kay. :O

The new cadets, getting ready to read their oath. =)

The new committee of the year! I'm Ketua A/NC 7 =)

These are the pictures taken by Teri, hopefully the photographers that came for the event would post up the pictures soon!

In the end, when we took down the flag, the HAS committee had to stayback to clean up the canteen and the hall. It was really tiring, especially after the whole day of running up and down. After cleaning up, we had our new committee meeting! And after that, we had our end-year party meeting. Finally got to go home by 1.30PM.

I'm glad its over.

Why am I so mean, why am I so cold, why am I so distant?

Cause I'm tired of letting my guard down and getting hurt, tired of getting my hopes high, getting disappointed in the end, tired of being taken advantage of.

Something, something about this place.

2011-09-20T22:09:00.000+08:00

My new pencil case! and the turtle keychain given to me from Jian Ee.

Try counting how many animals are there. ;)

-Karlynn.

Its taking me over.

2011-09-20T21:48:00.000+08:00

I've dropped to 3rd place these exams, and I'm disappointed, but yes, I do deserve it. Came back early from school today, escaped from Poking Day, but no, that's wasn't the reason.

I'm actually secretly excited/nervous for HAS this year! Its THE event of the year for our school's St John. Its the ceremony where the new cadets officially gets their cadet badge. This year, its going to be bigger. There is so much more additional awards presentations. Oh, and I can't believe I forgot to mention, I'm the emcee for this event! Its not only me though, Aiman is going to be my partner. And its gonna be pretty exciting to see the new cadets in uniform! I also am in charge of preparing the certs.

Apart from that, I'm also pretty excited for our lisan class cooking competition! My group (Me, Ji, Cel) are going to prepare - Chocolate Chip Cookies, Mihun Siam & Punch (do not miscomprehend) - I'm going to bake the cookies and prepare the tom yam sauce for the mi hun, Celine is bringing the mi hun & Ji is preparing the punch.

I just hope there won't be much activities after this, I really need to settle down and start studying =(
im out.

2011-09-18T22:12:00.008+08:00

Exactly 8 months ago,

My wish came through. I guess those birthday wishes, 11.11 wishes, dandelions all worked out at last. Everything afterwards was a dream come through, a roller coaster ride, feeling what I've never felt before, everything was like a new adventure. I miss that. I miss the old you. As the saying goes, 'People change and nothing stays the same', but you know what? I really wish you didn't change. Promises were made, promises were broken. I'm not going to put all those emotional quotes right now, but just so you know, I'm still here, I still have feelings, I still love you.

-Karlynn.

Message in a Bottle

2011-09-18T22:05:00.000+08:00

This is one of the books that once picked up, you just can't put it back down. Even if you wanted to, you would just be thinking about it and wanting to read it more. This book has thought me a lot of things. Sometimes, we can't just sit back and wait for things to change by itself, or just keep your life in the same old boring routine. Sometimes, as they say, people come and go, but yet, some people can just be taken away, without any explanation, even if you really cared about the person, or even if you don't. Life is a very fragile thing, and some people say life is short, but it is also the longest gift we have. Live your life, don't put away the things that you say 'I'll do that someday', cause that someday may not exist for you. Appreciate life, love it, and savour every second of it.

-Karlynn.

It's been a long time since I came around.

2011-09-17T21:09:00.000+08:00

Its annoying how when you have that little hope inside and you're just so spirited about it and when you talk about it to someone, they just cut it you bluntly and tell you to get over it. I just hate it when it happens. Especially when I trusted that person enough to tell, and they end up being so mean.

Its so hard to find people whom you can actually really trust, who'll be there for you no matter what. Not the ones who tell you off harshly, not the ones who'll ignore your texts when you need encouragement, not the ones whom will walk away when you need them most, not the ones whom will tell you that they'll be for you no matter what, forever and always, and then just leaves. I'm just tired of being let down and having to not care when people break the little or big promises, tired of people expecting me to be always strong, always right. That pretty leaves up to nobody there, but I just hate being all alone too.

-Karlynn.

This one's for you and me,

Living out our dreams.

2011-09-17T00:51:00.001+08:00

Another night of staying up doing work, I haven't been getting enough sleep, all I seem to do is complain, lets just say, after HAS is over, I can finally just let a little go and really start getting ready for finals.

Sigh, it's already 1AM.

2011-09-16T23:33:00.001+08:00

Went for a hi tea with my relatives today @ Delicious Cafe. Its at Ampang.

I love how the decorations are done, wooden and floral, which is really my quaint-cottage lover kinda style.

The interior decorations were the one which I love the most. I have the picture as my phone wallpaper!

Before we started our tea, I had a pasta since I didn't have breakfast OR lunch (and it was already 2.30PM and knowing the hungry pig I am, I was practically sobbing already). THE PASTA WAS GOOD! After that, we started with our tea.

We had the three tier english tea set:

The macadamia cheesecake tier.

The chocolate cake with hot chocolate and vanilla ice cream (this was FANTASTIC) tier.

And there was one more tier which is the Strawberry and Banana crumble (i think) but I forgot to take the picture.

Well I'm not actually the cakes and desserts sort of person (but chocolates doesn't count! I LOVE CHOCOLATES =D) but nevertheless, the food here was good.

-Karlynn.

2011-09-16T18:22:00.002+08:00

where do I go?

Somewhere back inside a room.

2011-09-16T18:19:00.000+08:00

It makes me think how if a single event in the past was changed, how the moment now would be so different. What we would be doing exactly now. How things would be like.

Sigh.

I came to dance, dance, dance, dance, dance.

2011-09-16T00:49:00.001+08:00

It seems like the only reason I'm staying up till this late (check the time of post) on the computer these days is mostly because of work. And sometimes that even takes up my reading to sleep time! I usually won't be able to get off the book and I'll end up sleeping at 1.30AM the earliest and I'll wake up at 10.30AM the next morning and rush like a maniac cause my van comes at 11.15AM! Thank goodness there's holidays tomorrow, so I can read till whatever time I want and sleep in tomorrow!

I haven't completely done my work yet but I want to start reading so I should really go off now.
im out.

A Bend in the Road.

2011-09-15T22:42:00.000+08:00

This book didn't give me as much thrill as The Choice did, but it was still good. I did a really big mistake by reading this book at night (usually after 12 or 1) and I got scared to go outside to fill my bottle (being the scaredy cat I am). This books was pretty frightening, but not as frightening as The Guardian (I read this about a year ago but never made a review about it) though.

You got a lot dreams that transformed into visions.

I can't remember a single day for the past week that I've slept earlier than 1 AM. I just somehow don't want to sleep (which is pretty weird, knowing the sleeping pig I am).

Anyways, I just finished doing my PK powerpoint which is about FATS (i'm serious) and I'll probably read my book till I'm tired (i.e: about 1AM)

Dear You,

You know who you are. This post, this song is for you. All I'm asking is for you to listen to it, read every lyric carefully and for you to put yourself in my shoes and thought about I felt about all of this. How unfair it was to me. How I'd go through all of this despite how much memory of you just come back crashing on me. Just so you know, all the times I spent with you were the best times of my life. I know you wouldn't care less about this, but there's nothing else I can do anymore.

Love,
-Karlynn.

Had a lot of moments that didn't last forever.

2011-09-10T18:47:00.000+08:00

I had a good day. :)

I understand things way better now, and I guess it sorts of makes me feel slightly better than how I am lately.

Time to get down to business!

These songs brings back a million memories. :)

So many things left unsaid, so many left undone.

Hold your head up girl and you'll go far.

It makes me wonder how someone can easily hurt someone else without even realizing it. Sigh, and some of them don't even bother thinking about how others would feel.

Cheer up, my dearest little junior, even though I know you won't read this, but know that whatever people may throw in your way, everything happens for a reason. :)

im out.

Do you remember the nights?

Karlynn, got some people said you're garang. Really ah? *surprised look*

To my prefects, yeah I guess.

What?! Never seen you angry before. Always see you happy and smiling.

Like whoaaaaaah, me, always happy and smiling? I must be a very good actress ;)

I'm on the edge of my emotions.

Yesterday was our interview to become a prefect next year.

Our class was at the library, and I was sitting with Celine, Nadia, Martin, Keshyan, Aqif, Darren and Mugilan. Celine and I were totally freaking out about the interview. What would they ask us? Would it be really dark with a lamp post shining on us? Would it be cold in there? Would a teacher be there? We even started freaking out over the littlest things. My hands were freezing cold, due to the fact my hands turns cold and pale whenever the temperature is turned down the littlest bit, plus the fact I was nervous. The rest of the prefects at our table seemed so chilled and they were even playing around. Finally, Ivy came into our class.

She called 5 names - Amir, Celine, Esther, Ji (she didn't come though) and Vino. That was when every other prefect in our class started panicking. We went on to our next class, back into our class for Moral. We just did our work like usual. Amir came back and everyone started interrogating him. From what she said, it was dark, cold and major scary. Matthew (he went earlier) and him were sweating bullets when they came out! Finally, the bell rang and we off to Science class. We all wanted to run to the Science lab (and hopefully they wouldn't find us there!) but before we even started packing our stuff, Bong and Yong came. Called the next 5 prefects in our class - Aqif, Martin, Navin, Nadia and me.

I somehow got less nervous and just thought why I just get it over and done with. While we were walking there, Bong kept trying to 'motivate' me (when it really just trying to scare me) and Yong would say he's nonsense. Finally, we reached there. We had to fill up a form and wait outside. I was the last out of the 5 called.

After awhile, Bong, Yong and I just sat on the floor, talking nonsense and joking around, honestly, it made me feel better. I didn't feel as tensed up as before. We were talking for almost half an hour, just waiting or my turn? When it was finally my turn in, I just went in and did my interview. I'm not gonna say anything about it except the fact my fingers were so restless that i kept fiddling with my pen. Oh and, it was dark at all, it was pretty normal to me! It was actually nice in there. It wasn't cold either.

But oh well, I'm glad its over.

We drove around crazy.

This book is probably one of the best books I've ever read (or at least, that's what I say to ALL books by Nicholas Sparks). I'm just a little upset cause I read it a little too fast =( And honestly, I never knew a book could carry such an unexpected turn in just 1 page. Like seriously. I'm not gonna say anymore to ruin the story for those of you who might read it in the future though. But I'm just saying, it was a good book.

I have no idea what to read next though.

im out.

I'll always stay.

I've learnt that even though things may seem so colourful and bright and nicely arranged, anything may come around and make things look like a mess.

But after while, even the mess would get better, it just takes time.

Love, love, love,

-Karlynn.
