Can we all say, "Finally!"? Took me nearly two hours to get this layout up, and to think I could once make my own layouts and tinker with imaging and whatnot. I can't even handle a pre-made layout now. Nearly pulled all my hair out trying to figure out why the codes were so strange looking. And then I realised that I downloaded the wrong codes. Am such a bone-head lah! And to think I spent two precious hours on the computer, instead of going running like I initially intended, or getting some much needed sleep. But hey, I must say that this is one lovely blogskin. The person who made this was inspired by Chasing Cars by Snowpatrol! Hehe.

Please tag away and fill up the lovely new tagboard. :D

So. Today will go down in my memory as one of the most memorable days in my Nanyang history. The embarrassment I caused myself... oh, it was of such a grave magnitude, that I am surprised I have any friends left in school. We were heading back to LT 4 for Econs, when Reena said,

"Melissa! You believe in magic right! You go and run into the wall, like Harry Potter like that!"

I think she meant the instance where Harry disappeared into the wall at the train station, to emerge on Platform 9 & 3/4. Was in a state of semi-lunacy, so I most readily agreed. I was all ready to run into the wall and told my classmates to close their eyes when I counted to three (obviously I wasn't intending to bang into the wall), when Mr. Lawrence, who was on his mobile, and had passed our little party earlier, turned around and walked back to our group. He kept insisting that I do whatever it was that I was intending to do, and dutifully shut his eyes like I told my friends to.

Was bloody embarrassed okay! I kept laughing hysterically and refused to carry out my idiotic act in front of him, and he finally deigned to leave. I'm certain I will never be able to face him again. And I did perform my magical, Harry Potter-esque disappearing act after he left, but my dear friends didn't close their eyes, and thus they saw me running around the wall. I bet I looked like a chicken with its head cut off.

Shortly after, Jamie was musing whether humans used to be able to fly, and I declared an affirmative confidently.

Me: "I show you!"

I then proceeded to run a distance to gain some momentum, and then leapt into the air and vigorously flapped my arms. And I only realised there were many other schoolmates around me after I "landed".

Don't ask me why I'm such a loser. I don't know either. Nevertheless, it was great fun. I laughed till I had to cry in the LT. I love the girls. :)

So I am decidedly cheered up after today, even though only Zhiying and Ellis noticed that I cut my hair, when I was so excited about my new short hair (turns out it isn't very short hahaha) and somebody said that my previous long hair resembled an upturned mop.

Well I've been lazing around here long enough. Till the next time, ta!

P.S. Hello Yizhen! Heh heh.
