I've decided to make a guide to help teenagers all around the world to cope with well...everything! From homework, parents, friends etc etc. These tips are based from my own experiences with THE family from hell! (at least to me anyway...) I really hope this guide can bring some help to teenagers out there... it helped me quite a lot! ^-^ I pretty much make these tips as I go around suffering in life. So just a friendly warning: These tips might not work in YOUR life!!! I am 100% not responsible for anything when you use these tips!!! I think that's all for now...

Tips on Coping with Parents:

  1. Never tell your parents ANYTHING until it's official!
  2. When parents start yelling, pay close attention! If they want you to stop reading novels, and it just soooo happens you're reading one that's really exciting...HIDE IT! (Preferably in your school bag.)
  3. Make a secret pocket by sewing the bottom of your old t-shirt and hang it in your closet. You can hide small, thin and illegal things in it!
  4. For bigger stuff, you can just leave it outside...but pay close attention to it! (Parents normally wouldn't destroy big expensive things...because it's their money! Unless your parents are destructive types...)
  5. ALWAYS have a tape recorder around you! Record any crucial information you can get. If possible, record everything when you are around your parents...you're gonna need it when they stab you behind your back!
  6. After your parents stop yelling, be an angel! (Duh!) Listen to whatever they say, do whatever they tell you to do and most importantly-minimise talk time with your parents. Answer what they ask (with GENTLE voice) and no more!
  7. ALWAYS compliment your parents! Even when you think your mother's cooking sucks or your dad's haircut looks like shit!
  8. Try to find every single possible thing to GET OUT of the house! You don't want to start a fight and ruin your day! Less time at home, less time to piss your parents.
  9. When you wake up first thing in the morning, DO NOT make your parents angry! Nothing good can come of it! Your parents will be pissed at you for a whole day and you'll get punished for ruining their day!
  10. Hide anything that you think is fun, (like your comics...drawings...) this way if they get angry, they can't add more things to be angry about! When parents are angry, they want to add fuel to the fire! Don't give them that chance!

After watching the first episode of 'True Blood' on Cinemax (now known as MAX), I got totally addicted to it! It's story and main characters really pull you into their world, or in my case, I wish I was Sookie Stackhouse! Even if I had to be beaten up and get killed! Here's a summary on what I know so far about 'True Blood'.

Vampires are finally able to 'come out of their coffins' when the japansese invented something called 'True Blood' and are fighting to get their rights. Sookie Stackhouse is a telephatic waitress working in a bar called Merlotte's in Bon Temps. She is able to hear everyone's thoughts and tries hard not to. One night while working at the bar as usual, a vampire named Bill Compton (not very handsome but damn fine...Ahhh...) came into the bar and Sookie is instantly attracted to him, this makes bartender Sam Merlotte jealous because he has a crush on Sookie. After Sookie stopped a couple from draining Bill's blood to sell in the black market, they become even closer. The next night, Sookie was attacked by the same couple who tried to drained Bill's blood. She nearly died but Bill saved her and gave her his blood to drink, which has a healing effect. When Bill was invited to Sookie's house, Sookie's grandmother warmly welcomes him while Sookie's brother Jason Stackhouse and best friend Tara Thornton were not so polite. After Bill chatted with Sookie's grandmother, Bill and Sookie takes a walk to Bill's home and there they kissed for the first time!!! *Squeek!*

I know... it doesn't seem very interesting does it? That's what I thought too but after I watched episode 1, I totally fell in love with Bill!!! Hehe... You can catch the rest of the episodes on MAX (channel 412) on Thursday 10 pm to 12 pm ( 2 episodes), Saturday 2 pm to 4 pm or Monday 12 am to 2 am. Please see it at least once cause I can tell you this much... This is WAY better than Twilight movie!

I rewrote this song especially for my friends who are having birhdays this week!!! Happy birthday, hope you like it!!!! Sing it like Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne...

Last week when I went to the chemistry lab (Monday), Ganeetha and Choy Yen (my friends...I like to call Choy Yen: 'Choy-chan'...and it really ticks her off!!! Hehe...) were playing with a wooden key chain (minus the chain) and I placed it on the bunsen burner because I thought it was funny cause it look like it was about to blast off into space!!! Anyway, by the end of the lesson, our teacher asked us to do corrections in our PEKA report (dunno how to explain, it's like a normal report I guess...) and I was frantically trying to correct mine in hopes to borrow to my friends later. I was just sooo frecking busy that I forgotten to take the wooden key chain with me. When I return to class and found out that Choy Yen and Ganeetha didn't take it either, I thought they were joking but I rushed down to the lab to ask Swee Mei and the others if they had seen it, but they told me they didn't see it at all. I was so upset by then and hoped that Choy Yen was just bluffing... When I returned to class I tried to look out for signs to see if they were lying (Ganeetha and Choy Yen just loves to play pranks...) and they seem happy enough, so I assume they were pranking me. When I went for History class I went back to look for it but couldn't find it. It was during tuition that I found out that the key chain was lost... T~T
I appologized but I felt she didn't really forgave me... I tried to make her happy as much as I can...

Today Choy Yen went to look for it again in the lab. It made me all the more depressed cause I knew she misses it so badly... I'm sorry Choy Yen... Please forgive me... I'll try to find it so you can hang it back again on your pencil case....

To express how sorry I am, I going to write the lyrics of a song named 'Gomenasai' by Tatu. I hope you read this and like it...

Gomenasai

What I thought wasn't mine
In the light
Was a one of a kind
A precious pearl

When I wanted to cry
I couldn't cause I
Wasn't allowed

*Gomenasai
For everything
Gomenasai
I know I let you down
Gomenasai
Till the end
I never needed a friend
Like I do now*

What I thought wasn't
So innocent
Was a delicate doll
Of porcelain

When I wanted to call you
And asked you for help
I stopped myself

*Repeat

What I thought was a dream
A mirage
Was as real as it seems
A privilege

When I wanted to tell you
I made a mistake
I walked away

Gomenasai
For everything
Gomenasai
Gomenasai
Gomenasai till the end
I never needed a friend
Like I do now

Gomenasai
I let you down
Gomenasai
Gomenasai
Gomenasai till the end
I never needed a friend
Like I do now...

Please forgive me... I'm sooo sorry... Gomenasai....

I read this in a chinese novel, and thought that it was sooo true, so I decided to post it up. Here it is, hope you like it too!

Once upon a time, there was an angel. She was strong, brave and had never shed a tear in her life. That is, until she met her one true love-a boy, and fell in love with him. It was then that she started to feel what was it like to be sad, to be loved and to cry. She left heaven to be with the boy so that she no longer cried. And that is why, all of the men in the world should never disappoint his women, because she once left heaven for you.

So what do you think, pretty romantic right? Too bad most boys these days suck at appreciating their love ones, not that I have dated before, just been hearing stories from my friends. By the way, I wanna introduce this great korean series I'm following. It's 'Boys Over Flowers' or in original name 'Hana Yori Dango'. Here are some of the reasons why you should see it:

1. It has cute and hot guys.
2. It has a great storyline.
3. The supporting cast has a great love story to back them up. (Yi Jong and Ga Eul forever!!!)
4. It can make you cry.
5. It's not the usual happy ending stories.
6. The main characters have to go through hell lots of obstacles to be together.
7. It has great songs. (Although I don't really fancy the song 'Almost Paradise'.)
8. It doesn't have cut scenes!!!!!! (Woo hoo!!! No they don't to X-rated stuff, they just kiss. I'm just happy cause I'm so damn sick and tired of our frecking goverment cutting all the good scenes. I mean c'mon, it's just kissing!)
9. It has tones of humour.
10. Etc. etc...

There you have it, reasons to watch the show. You can watch it on you-tube, or you can just see it on TV on channel 303 on Astro. For those of you who don't have Astro or internet, good luck waiting for national TV to broadcast it, cause all the good scenes will be cut!!!

Note: There are quite a number of fight scenes and kissing scenes, so if you don't like it, don't watch it. But let me warn you, you don't know what you're missing.
