wow so many things happened. there was scip interviews, camp, elections and tests. i think our scip people generally rock! yea~

omg. today was the cny carnival and i helped out at the sc's red hair booth today. it was kinda fun colouring other people's hair la. but i juz realized that i have been breathing in quite an amount of the spray and my snot has turned red. omg. save me. please give us masks next time.

anyway, after the carnival, i went for dinner with some of the scip and sc people. they ate at the "famous katong laksa" place so i ordered laksa. omg. i juz realized how much i hate laksa. it's like so fat laden la. u can tell with evey mouthful.

after that went to play pool. i really suck la but my partner natha was really quite good. after tt went home lor.

oh ya, had dinner with di hui the other day at bugis and we ate japanese food at the food court and oredered some sake. omg. i juz realized how horrible alcohol actually tastes like and how it makes u fat easily. hence, alcohol and laksa are now on my list of foods to avoid.

anyone any idea how to discolour my nose hair/ nasal passage/ snot? oh ya, tt idiot bastard fishy creamed me today juz because i threw one ice cube at him la. then he put so much cream i had to wash my hair and tee la. then i had to borrow yan siang's red ahgn ten, "Singapore"

wow so many things happened. so until next time, cya` oyasumi`tee.

sayonara 2005! hajimashite 2006! dozo yoroshiku! it's a new year!

wow it's the first time they are having a big countdown event near my house! heights fiesta 2006. they invited SM Goh, superstar winner kelvin tan wei lian, miss singapore-idol-contestant-with-the-most-number-of-surnames maia lee and also the very blian (means beng and lian) j-team. wei lian is pretty good live la considering how some singers cmi live. maia was all sexy as usual. and the j-team shamelessly sang their hokkien songs in front of the SM. sigh. ooh. maria and di hui were working as crew. omoshiroi.

ok. it's a new year so i must have new year resolutions. so here goes.
my new year resolution:
1) get straight A's for my 'A's
2) get at least silver for my NAPFA test in order not to do extra ns

and to do this i have to:
1) study really hard. revise everyday or something.
2) train really hard. run everyday or something.
3) sleep early. to recharge energy.
4) cut down on pointless things.

and in order to try my best.......LOJP:The Return of The Kinky has been established. i'll post the exact rules another day.

oh dear. my keroro manga is here but i dun haf enough cuz of unexpected spending. i guess i can only go down and collect next week. hee.

well, i guess that's all for today. muz finish homework. roar. but after some slp la. ok, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

nyaa~ was feeling sick for the past few days even during chalet. feeling better now. can start chionging homework soon. better start VERY soon.

i want keroro gunso subs! i want keroro gunso music! waaaaaaaaaaah~ ok, enough of whining. i've placed an order on the manga! yes! that means i'm set back on $75. noooooo! i still need my pencil case, shorts and shoes. bummer.

hmm...the e2 chalet was kinda sian la. no ps2, no mahjong. nothing to do. so went to slp quite early. we went to k-box on the 2nd day. the bbq turned out pretty ok la. the satay were great but the yakitori chicken wings didn't really taste yakitori-ish. it tasted more planta-ish. lol. but anyway, i still hope there's another e2 chalet next year.

and that brings me to the next point. will i be able to make it for the chalet if there's anotyher one? not if i fail my napfa or even get a bronze. i guess i'll be doing ns early during december if i dun make it. muz jia you!

my christmas wish is that i get straight A's for my 'A's next year and that i get a silver for my NAPFA. and of course peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind. hey, i get to make any wish rite?

well, that's all for today. until next time, cya~

omg!! today is a great day! first, i went to bedok with ed to meet with weldon and jean to kayak at bedok! but i misread weldon's message sent at 2am last night wrongly. i thought we are supposed to meet at 11am and jean is busy so she would meet us later at 1pm. actually, weldon was busy and the meeting was supposed to be changed to 1pm. but both of us already reached at 11am and so we went to ntuc to check out the prices to wait for jean whom i called. while we were at the ntuc, weldon called and said he would be done soon! ok, so he came down with sammy and amande soon after. jean turned up too. so we went to have lunch at the hawker centre at bedok central. i had century egg and pork porridge and sugar cane juice. !!!!!i saw priscilla chan (zhen si mei) in person!!!! so lucky~~~ chio~~

okok, so after lunch we took 60 to bedok reservior because it said tt it would get us there. but apparantly it doens't so we got off and started walking. around maybe an hour's walking, we finally reached only to find paddlez inc to be extremely small and kinda disappointing. and the UNCLE at the place thought that i'm 20+ and i'm not studying anymore. maybe because i haven't shaved in a while hee.(ok la, maybe he's not that old. he said he's going to ORD in 2 weeks. but that's for calling me old....) the nice miss let us pay after we came back. kaoz the area is so small la. we juz rented for 1 hour. we rented 2 singles and 1 double. we set off wif jean and weldon on the double and ed and i on singles. after a while the 2 of them got tired of the double and decided to switch with us. so we managed to switch without capsizing in 8 minutes! good huh? after a while we got bored of the tiny area again so we decided to capsize one by one(even though we're not supposed to cuz it's a reservior. hee) we made a boring trip a fun one la. after that, jean decided to hitch a ride on the double and we made weldon tow her kayak back. hee. so we got back, cleaned the kayak and changed. oh ya, it's so horrible that it doesn't even have a shower. and the nearest toilet is like a 10minute to and fro journey. it's going to eb a once in a lifetime thing. ooh. jean expresses her interest in going for 1 star rock-climbing. recently seeing lots of "STARS". hee.

ok, after that we took a bus to bedok and jean and weldon went for their leo club thingy and we took mrt to orchard to look for the presents for his friends. went to taka, heeren and cineleisure. found 1 of the items at cineleisure. ooh! one of the shops at cine is selling the giroro puppet! the official merchandise! $36 only! too bad dun haf keroro......had dinner at kfc. zinger.

after that went to meet my family at taka and ed went home. walked around looking for my present. found a puma jacket but it's slightly out of budget and my mum keeps insisting she can get jackets for much lower prices....uhh....see first. oh ya! scouted for board shorts! i think around $60+ can get a pretty decent pair liaoz. this applies for billabong, rip curl and quiksilver. volcom not nice....

my mum decided to go taking photos all around so i reluctantly followed. we took photos of the giant christmas tree adn then went out the area with some carnival or something going on. took some photos of the sculptures. the choir. some of the aboriginal people from different countries set up booths there. aiyah at first it was the fat and old aunties from malaysia. not nice. then beside them was soem MIC's. not nice. then behind. whoa hohohohoho! taiwan aboriginals! (ah mei zhu to be exact). the chio bus and guys were dancing!!!!!!!! then when they were doing some dance called "happy welcoming" or something, they pulled some of the audience in!!! i got pulled in by a chio bu!!!!!! dance dance dance. too bad stupid dad was somewhere else with the camera. his loss. after that i got my mum to take photos of me with some of the chio bus!!! (this isn't the best yet. hee) so happy....a chio bu was holding my right hand the whole time we were dancing~~~~~~~ but of course naturally my mum got reminded of her beloved ming dao by the aboriginal guys and complained that she had to hold on to so many things cuz stupid dad couldn't bother to come over or she would have danced too. but they are like a bit too skinny ar. oh ya, my bro also dance with the chio bus.

ya and we got home after that~~~

ooh! bikini babes for the past 2 days at the pool and holding hands with a taiwan chio bu today~~~~~ i feel it!!!!! my tao hua yun must be coming~~ i'm waiting for u, my girl~~~~

aahhh~~~~~~elated~~~~~~~~~i think that's all for today.....until next time.....cya~ oyasumi~

kaoz. i tot it would be a good day but it has top be ruined by my mum argh.

ok...this is like the 3rd time i'm trying to download the stupid episode 2 cuz there were errors for the past few times.

i woke up at aroud 8am. the weather was pretty good and i was in a good mood. i brushed my teeth and had some maple pecan cereal with milk for breakfast. i felt like having scrambled eggs so i made some and gave like half of it to my brother. see, i'm so nice.

i did some of my physics and now i'm almost done. hope to finish soon. i think after this will have momentum liao. after that i decided to go for a swim. can't waste the good weather rite?

so i went down to the serangoon swimming complex which i don't really like cuz they only got 1 competition pool and no training pools. kaoz. guess who i saw? the kan-wo-72-bian clarence.... it was especially scary after the mark chay incident went she went gaga over mark chay......i swam and swam. the scenery started out rather boring but after a while, the bikini babes started streaming in! got 2 around my age one....heh heh.........not bad not bad. looks like a good day. i swam 40 lengths of the pool in around 2 hrs then went home lor. on the way home i bought some green tea soya milk.

when i came home. i had some frog porridge with kimchi and drank some soya milk for lunch. ok la. then it came. my mum started nagging about EVERYTHING. wad never put my leather shoes in the cupboard. never throw away chocolate wrapper. kaoz. throw liao i said it's because i forgot then she said i must apologize. kaoz. wth. dream on ar. u dun come pms me everytime can or not?

then after that she started nagging at my brother abt buying too many assessment books....c'mon la, it's for next year, how u know he won't finish? then dunno wad la. yak yak yak yak.

after that then say wad "i wanna pay the phone bills liao" and ask me to pay her the $28.20 that exceeded.......c'mon la, i have to call and message regarding pw and council work leh(my phone bills starts from around mid-month). okok. so calculating then nvm. pay then pay lor. i didn't have change then gave her more and ask for change then she still kp abt the previous bill. tmd..........dun de chun jing chi ok.......

damn pissed by her and my day is practically ruined and blasting HIGH and MMIGHTY COLOR on my speakers. it's the most rock stuff i have to express my unvoiced teen angst. heh. and it's fun to see the the air from the subwoofer make a card vibrate.

argh. going to shower now. ok, until next time, cya~ bye~ juz heck care her liao la.

hmm...ed kinda doubted his efforts in comforting me cuz it seems like one inspiring post on a forum that wasn't even for me was more effective than his counselling. it's probably how unreceptive i am when i'm depressed ba. dun think so much. but i think ur counselling skills should be improved though! hee~

yaya, went to school for painting of the backdrop. not bad la. quite nice. but that's not the point!

ed called changi and then apparantly they cancelled the 16-18 2 star course!!!!!!! i'm absolutely infuriated!!!! all my planning gone to waste!!! and they didn't even bother to remove it from the website la!!! i'm going to call them tomorrow and ask for a reasonable explanation! this means we can only kayak in the stupid confined area for the chalet! and liyana isn't going to get her 1 star in time!!!!!!!!! how???? is this fate? i'm not fated to kayak rite? why does something have to go wrong all the time? how come i'm the enthu one and have initiative to coordinate everything? then something crops up!!!! very chik kek leh! can someone else do the planning and i just join for once? maybe i'm just not fated to kayak......

kaoz!!!! i haven't finished any homework yet! i'm like 1/3 through my physics only la. ok, i read through my descriptive statistics notes even thought the deadline for the quiz has been extended. but ed has already finished his physics!! and he has like more questions than me!!! have i been wasting my time gymming and swimming and kayaking? i suck big time...........

y is the tj orientation pack so hansuan one? y tjcians so kiam siap one? our pathetic economic orientation pack at $8 consists of only the stupid foolscap and stupid t-shirt and stupid collar pin and i dunno wether got stupid file/binder. not that i want to compare but even ny is going to have a slingbag! and aj is going to have a shoebag! i'm so ashamed at the meagreness of our tj o-pack.....

sigh~ school is reopening and it's going to be another year of tortorous days. someone give me strength to pull through alright. i think my results suck leh. not that i don't want to try la but i also dunno wad to do. maybe really cannot cope then muz quit co.....? i think i'm superman or wad? sc and co when my results so sucky? i was really hoping for better results for promos than mid-year la. but it was worse. i honestly tried harder ok...i just suck la. maybe i'm one of the last in class. i just can't be bothered to compare......

aiyah, i also dunno liao la. focus on fitness? studies? pdp's? interest? more than one? all? still want gf....cmi la, cmi....can go and dream until dunno when also won't have one la. crap still wanna speak proper english so i sound less beng (dunno leh. some ppl say i talk like beng sometimes. i very guai one lor. i'm mr. goody-goody la.) still wanna learn japanese. u kns la u. ooh. wow. i'm actually talking to, nono, scolding myself. whee.

where's that weldon? he had better get back soon and go sign up for 2 star together or else....roar~ i would have gone for the 4,11,18 one at kallang if not for him.

wah, gek theng u good ar. toy with my feelings. sms me yesterday to tell me to collect my giordano goods from her then when i wanted to leave then sms her then she never reply. call aso never pick-up. wasted my efforts sia.

hmm...after learning 3 kana...i've realized that my japanese handwriting looks much more decent as compared to my english or chinese handwriting. weird.

my mechanical pencil stopped working.........this one lasted pretty long. i dunno why my mechanical pencils tend to get broken.

blood+ is so nice!!! i love the OP and ED songs! the storyline also not bad. it looks like the 24 ep type of anime. it's so gory that it's starting to become funny.

i put my tamama plastic model together! ok, maybe i'm getting a little too paranoid over keroro gunso. the plamo is now on it's stand on top of my speaker subwoofer. hmm....now that you think of it.....giroro is actually kinda cute in his own "military" way. he's the only one in keroro's team that takes this invasion business seriously. but, tamama is still the cutest! buahahaha!

empowered by the wonderful sunny weather today, i've decided to go on a solo journey today!!! pOlar^bEar evolves to sØlaR^DraGon!!!

so i asked ed to give me a morning call at 7am and also set the alarm clock for 7am. at 6.58am or so, i received a phone call and heard qi cai's voice on the other end. after that....i fell asleep again and woke at around 8plus near 9am. hee.

i had breakfast and packed my stuff and left for the dunno wad sic building izzit? i got my queue number and waited from 11.32am to like 12.40+pm? extended my passport. so there, dun make any more noise.

after that, i took mrt to clementi and walked to the swimming complex. muz explore different swimming complexes wad. wah kaoz!!!! bikini babe!!!! not my favourite colour though. but nevermind!!!! DAMN CHIO! she's e lie in the pool and swim + tan type somemore!! like me!!! sit so close sia!!!!!!! then she started playing with her i dunno wad u call it......straps? untie and tie again...*drool* well, luckily i never de yi wang xing and lose my locker keys. hee~ wah kaoz. should have eaten lunch b4 swimming sia. 35 laps then dong buay diao liao. washed up and went to have lunch at clementi central.

after that i took the mrt to clar quay. walked up the 90 steps and went to liang court. my first time at meidi-ya!!!! bought the onigiri mold! omg! meidi-ya is japanese food heaven!!! they even have dai-fuku~~ if only i brought more money...T_T oh ya, it also comes complete with japanese people but unfortunately only saw some obaa-sans and ojii-sans. went to have a look at kino but nothing really interesting. maybe because i juz went to kino yesterday. liang court is like THE one-stop japanese stuff shopping centre in singapore la. sorry takashimaya, liang court totally 0wn3d with meidi-ya.

after that i walked to chinatown. there are some anime shops around there as i mentioned. the one in the photo sells some bootlegs vcds and dvd's but didn't have anything i wanted to buy. so i went over to the other shops. saw the magiking deluxe toy!! $110....magilegend! $140....4get abt it. went to another one and saw the same type of keroro gachapon machine...couldn't resist so i changed some coins and got 1. OMG! it's tamama!!! lucky~~~~

after that i took mrt home lor.

kaoz!!!! the aj entrepenuer club con money one lor!! they conned some blur teacher into signing some lame contract for next year's orientation tees that makes them not liable for any mistakes and gives them the 'right' to claim money from the students' council for breech of contract! and the worse thing is that the sample they've produced doesn't even look like the design! the size of the printing is wrong! but they said that if they are to make another mold for printing, they will need to be paid $2500! to THEM, not the DISTRIBUTOR. so lame! and then instead of 2 t-shirts, aj decided to only print one and they say it's a breech of contract and they need to be paid another $2500! is this contract even legal? did u know that soehow aj says all transactions have top go thru the club and they can keep all profits? and they don't even donate the earnings! and they even sell shares and shareholders get a dividened of the profits!!! and their contract has this "law of secrecy" that states that if anyone other than the people signing the contract reads the contract, it is no longer valid and the party responsible will have to pay the club a fine!!! this is totally unreasonable! this is not ENTEPRISE. this is MONEY-SWINDLING. i say expel all the members and close down the club!

well, that's all for today. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

it has been a crappy week so far....

---MONDAY---

ah! it was grad nite! so i went down to school at around 10am. we waited for amande and maria to arrive with the flowers so i polished my shoes in the mean time. when they arrived we started to de-thorn the roses with penknives.

then we went across for lunch. after that we moved the drumset onto the bus and it started raining. we went to ritz carlton. the entertainment company was like one and a half hours late la. OMG! the lucky draw prize sponsored by mettro, an ipod shuffle, was stolen!!!!!!!!!!! we replaced it with a creative muvo lor. the dance girls called zhiyong, sammy and me vain cuz we used oil blotters!! really meh? anyway, my outfit looked pretty ok despite the pants la.

kaoz. we were doing logistics and couldn't eat dinner until like 8plus la. the emcee was quite crappy la! he just rushed through the programmes at the beginning. so sammy had to call INK back in the middle of their movie because they had to perform earlier. then after they got here, he suddenly slowed down so much la. they were so pissed. and he didn't follow wad we told him at all la, he was supposed to announce the results judged by mrs lim but he anyhow judge the grad king and queen by himself la. and he gave the other prizes after he crowned the king and queen. lame la. and the djsucks also la. first he started off with all e retro songs then he likes to stop at the best part of the songs la!!! and he keeps blabbering non-stop. horrible.

we ended at around 1am then we had to bring all the stuff back to tj. ppl like bryant juz zhao-ded and went to haver fun by himself. oh ya!!!! he's super high during the dance!!!!!!omg!!!! kowaii!!!!!! so damn scary!!! he will jump around, grab other ppl and do obscene actions and touch himself!!!!!!!!!!!!! and tt's without alcohol!!!! NEVER let him touch alcohol for the sake of all mankind!!! anyway, we went back to tj and after tt around 15 of went to sammy's house and stayed for the night. i was quite energetic one but i got bored and went to sleep.

---TUESDAY---

so i woke up at arund 9am and i left with maria and dihui. i took 158 all the way to serangoon bus interchange. reached home at around 10am. i brushed my teeth and then showered (i didn't showered the previous day. smelly~~) and went to sleep. there was ULTRA sunny weather but i was too tired so i decided to go swimming after lunch. so i slept waiting to be awoken for lunch. but, no! no one woke me up and i woke at around 5pm and had to go to j8 with my bro and mum to watch his stupid power rangers 'live'.

after that we had dinner at ajisen. i had the tokusen ramen set. not bad la.

---TODAY---

i woke up at around 10am today. wanted to go swimming and had prata for breakfast. the weather suddenly went haywire and it started to rain (i HATE rain!!!!!!!!!!!!!) after a few vcd's, the weather was 70% restored. then came the dillemma, swim or renew passport? my mum was bugging me to renew my passport cuz she wanted us to go on a 1 day trip to malaysia. ok la, give her chance, so agreed to give up swimming on such a good day for her sake.

then she drag drag drag and we had lunch at 3.30pm then by the time we reached there it was 5.06pm and the ppl refused to let us in.....so i ponned co and skipped swimming all for nothing....then we went to the national library and returned and borrowed books.

then we went to bugis junction and walked around. i wanted to buy a japanese textbook but i realized i dun wanna leave myself in such a vulnerable financial position so i decided not to. we bought some food and went home cuz the 3.30 meal was uspposed to be linner or something like that.
-------

and my mum keeps bugging me about my handphone bills going over the basic plan.....so i have to pay the extra?! roar~ it's not exactly my fault la. it was the pre-grad nite and pw and orientation preperation period leh. roar.

i went to tenchi comics and they said if i want the keroro gunso manga i would have to pre-order. sucks man. roar.

why izzit either that there's bad weather or something happens so i can't swim? izzit so difficult just to swim? kaoz. roar~

and tt weldon ebtter contact me asap once he's back and we have to go sign up for the 2 star asap. if he doesn't go, i'll blow! we specially chose those days for his sake la. if not we would've gone for the 4,11,18 one. and when is liyana going for her course ar? roar~

and i haven't started my homework yet. and i wanna learn japanese. roar~

so when r we doing the painting of the backdrop? i got this nasty feeling tt it will disrupt my plans and make me pissed again. roar~

and the bus how? tt mr leeeu says he doesn't wants a foozeball table or tv or ps2 in the lounge but spend all $4000 on furniture. we've surveyed the bus and there's like only enough space for 1 sofa la. so wad are we going to do? carpet the floor? buy lots of cushions and a sofa? the students will be bored to death la kaoz. wad is the lounge for? self-confinement ar? roar~

i think that's all for today la. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~ roar~

ok, cuz there was combined worship and no sunday school today, i stayed in till pretty late. after lunch i went to bishan and met up with ed to swim. apparently he thought i was supposed to call momo and i thought he was. in the end no one called him. so we called him on the spot and he said he would join us later at the pool.

so we went swimming first. kaoz. there was this super chio lady in white and pink bikini tanning la. after a while, some guy came to the poolside, fully dressed (weird). then they hugged! omg! then they applied suntan lotion on each other!!! after a while momo came then we continued to speculate.

after swimming we went to j8 and walekd arnd. my mum came with my bro at arnd 7 and we ate at mosburger. after tt my mum went for her meeting and we continued to walk arnd. my mum came back and we went to watch the prize ceremony for the entrepenuership competition. yangzheng came in 2nd. omg. i'm going to have to drink all tt milk to get them a 2nd prize......

anyway, after tt we went home. showered and watched xiao ling.

kaoz. ed is having trouble with his fellow councillros because they produce crappy work and he has to clean up after them. so irresponsible and selfish la. wad go on date, busy with holiday job. only do tt kind of thing after u have fufilled ur own responsibilities can or not? this is something tt i've seen in our own tj council also. some of e ppl dun even do anything. run for councillor for wad? let those who will do their job properly be councillors la. everytime only know how to give splendid excuses. CRAP. i tell you, it's all CRAP. dun anyhow give slipshod work also. that's also CRAP. TRASH. WASTE OF TIME AND ENERGY. who's going to clean ur pampered ass after you?

then liyana having trouble with her crush. she likes him but dun dare to confess. then since never confess then wait lor. wait already then get easily frustrated. kaoz. just go confess already!!!! if not then dun mope around.

wah. muz wake up early tml....am i supposed to be totally backstage the whole time during grad nite? if so, why muz we dress up? if i'm going to be backstage THE WHOLE time and i was made to dress up......i'll be VERY PISSED. backstage crew can jolly well juz wear black t-shirt and jeans!!! we'll see first la ar. dun anyhow get angry and waste energy.

okok, time to sleep! until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

nyaa~~~ woke up at around 11am today. arnd 9 hours of sleep. watched some tv and ate and then went to meet ed at the bus stop at around 1.45pm. as usual, someone has to be late. well, it wasn't me today. yay.

so we took the bus to lavender and walked all the way to kallang sea sports club. we rented kayaks for 2 hours. !!!!!!u do realize that it was only the 2 of us! we can rent kayaks wif juz 2 ppl!!!! wow! no need 3!!!! anyway, we kayaked until around 4.30pm when we decided to head back. omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was super low tide! we were like dunno how far from the normal shoreline la!!!!! it's not even sand anymore!!! it's e grey gunk that u would sink into!!!! it's the same kind as tt time in pulau ubin at obs.......***it was a traumatizing experience....the mud was like knee deep and i lost my shoes in the mud so i had to walk in the mud barefooted. there were rocks in the mud and my legs were cut in so many places.....shrimps and crabs and worms and leeches and everything was in the mud....and the horseflies kept biting...*** luckily kallang wasn't tt bad. the grey muck was kinda manageable although it kinda sucked onto my slippers. and there were some sea creatures la.....i mustered up some courage and got over the trauma of ubin and dragged my kayak all the way up. phew~ glad that was over. i'll be sure to check the low tides in the papers the next time.

after tt we walked to bugis from the sea sports club. i must emphasize what a wonderful place bugis village is! if u r not really concerned about brand, there are lots of great buys there! clothes, bags, cds, accessories, piercings, food, se--oops. got carried away there. but do walk around the place and check out the prices though. for example, we first went to a shop selling silver accessories with a lady shopkeeper. found a chain and the lady quoted $60+ then after a fantastic 25% discount, it was $40+. ok, so i said i'll walk around first. went to another shop with uncles as shopkeepers selling silver accessories and got a similar chain for $22. and i didn't even bother to ask for discount.

ok, i guess we can't get everything from BV can we? so we went over to bugis junction and looked at some of the formal wear and tried to look for a nice pair of pants at a cheap price but couldn't. 4get abt it la, wun wear it very often also. no choice lo, muz wear the slightly oversized pair i have. can't help it tt i've become slimmer. hee. went to 77th street and bought a very nice belt at $9.90. so happy. cheap and nice. buahahaha.

okok, after that, we went home la.

kaoz! my stupid winamp kok up again! tt's it! i've upgraded to the latest winamp 5.12! goodbye winamp 3! now i can open all my mp3 files with no worries! buahahaha! but the skin looks kinda ugly though. hmmm.....

well, that's all for today! until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

hmm...banner painting was cancelled today. then gek theng and xue ling called me up so i went to town to look for them. they wanted to eat sushi buffet but i juz had sakae last night...but i went to orchard anyway la. when i was near heeren, some lady stopped me and occupied around 30min of my time trying to get me to get a prudential svanings plan la. soundz gd la, but i consider 1st ba.

by the time i got to suki sushi, they already ate until they were full liao la. only gek theng still had pretty good appetite and was still ordering food. we shared some lame jokes then went off liao.

we went to lido and bought tickets for zathura. i wasn't really interested la but anything lo. after that we went on a hunt for my shirt! we tried g2000, topman and i dunno wad but either cannot find nice one or too exp. then we went to far east. we went into this shop which had a pretty good deal la. it was a black based one with red stripes at $39.90 but a little too much red la. and the salespeople were a little too enthu and kinda freaked the gals out. so didn't buy lor. then we went to domanchi (yes, the one with badly designed changing rooms at the bugis branch). found a very nice black shirt with blue lines and wide collar. tried out and the girls liked it. so ok lor. ka-chink! good bye $52.

then we watched zathura. it was ok la. better than expected. after that we walked to ps then go home lor. liddat lor.

hmm....i'm left with arnd $100 to get my belt, accessories and maybe a new pair of pants if i can afford it. the pair i have now is a bit too big ar. but it's size 34 liao leh. i can wear 32 ar? wow~

ooh! rozen maiden traumend rawks! the best ep so far is ep 6! suigintou actually turned good! omg. so touching....now they can all team up against that barashuisho who looks so much like shinku. i'm pretty sure "father" is the guy making dolls in the shop. but the rozen maiden were supposed to have been made centuries ago leh. the "father" won't die one meh? omoshiroi....

!!!!!keroro gunsou is almost done!!!!!!!! kawaii sore!!!!! i think i better exercise a bit tml. feeling a bit guilty. heh heh.

well, that's all for today. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

nyaa~~ went to school for co today. the weather was so good lah....wasted man.......roar! the sun and water was calling out to me!! i was even thinking of ponning co and go swimming (i always have my swim & gym gear in my bag just in case). i just wanted to sweat it out in the sun. kayak, swim, tennis, running, blading, anything. i'm an official sun-worshipper (figuratively lah)! at least co ended early today. yay. so i went to bugis to find my mum and bro.

we met and ate sakae! yay! after that went to find my black shirt for grad nite. omg. i tell you it's impossible to find a nice black shirt for guys at a reasonable price....unlike for girls. any nice black top would do. but no, our beloved elk has to set the standard dress code to be all black. yes. u heard me. black top. black bottoms. black shoes. yes i know black is supposed to be the in colour this autumn/winter but it's still terribly hard to find.....i aso dunno where to find liao. sigh. means muz find a nice belt also. and muz accessorize. broke liao la. anyone who knows where to get cheap and good deals tell me. no, don't ask me to watch diva on a dime. can't stand that sissy. dunno why so many sissies on tv. can't stand them la. like that BRY-AnN WONG and MA-ha-HA and xie XIE SHiAO GUy-wANG. another male actor on my hate list is zhU-LIAN HE(E). liyana says he's gay. well, actresses i like include Fiona Xie, Jessica Alba, Cameron Diaz and many others. buahaha. oops. like out of point liao. heh heh. back to today.

couldn't find la. my mum bought a white handbag though. then we waited at the bustop. it began to rain and my mum passed me an umbrella because i was near the edge. i didn't really want to use the umbrella lah. but wadeva. then got some beng and lians start talking about me and the umbrella. very irritating. it's not even their business la. i can hold up a turkey if i wanted to. i would have scolded them if not for one of them actually returned my idiotic brother his ezlink. one of the other bengs said that guy had actually wanted to keep the card la. ok la, seeing that they are actually doing something good, then 4get abt it le. if not for that i would have given them a piece of my mind la. well, at least my soup doesn't dribble out of my mouth. pfffffftttt. those bengs so stupid. pierce lips for wad.

oh ya, guys. NEVER try out clothes at Domanki in the night. the genius person who decided the interior design of the shop decided to put clear glass panels in the changing rooms. sure, you can't see anything from inside the shop cuz of the curtains but anyone with eyes can see very clearly across the road.

hmm...i guess that's all for today. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

went to school to day cuz we were supposed to paint the backdrop for orientation today. but we had to sew the 3 pieces of cloth together 1st. we realized that it would take forever to sew by hand so i brought the cloth with me to ask my mum to help us with the sewing machine.

as we prepared to leave, zhi yong and i went to have a look at the structures the OAC was bulding.it's actually more secure than it looks. before i knew it, i was up on the 2nd tier. the whole thing was about 2 to 3 storeys tall la. quite fun la.

went to my grandma's place after that. had lunch there. spent some time with grandma and granddad. before i left, grandma gave me a big plastic bag of stuff to bring home. so i lugged all e stuff and the cloth home.

hmm...ya, nothin much happened today la. oh ya!!!!!!! some guy asked wether i was MIC in the elavator at my grandma's place! i look very MIC meh? i mean i'm ok with MIC's but i don't like being mistaken for a MIC! boku wa shingapooru-jin desu!!!! argh~~~

alrite alrite. i guess we r going for 2 stars on 16,17,18 dec @ changi. but if we encounter any ghosts or gays then we'll sacrifice weldon.

rite.....let's start with this morning. i woke up at 5.45am so that i would be definitely on time for the grad nite meeting at 8am? i got there quite early. then in the end everyone other than elke was late. nice~

so after the meeting JY said she wanted to JP and asked us to go with her. i called my mum cuz we were supposed to swim but she said it's far too early to leave......after having my sms's and calls being totally ignored by momo, bamboo and liyana, i agreed to go alll the way to JP. but we only left after wasting a great deal of time. but finally we left for jurong point(which i had just visited 3 days ago). around 1 hour later, we were at JP. then this person toilet that person atm the other person went to change. after that we had mosburger for lunch. after that bryant and sammy decided to go for the course with jiayi at NTU. they were going to self-fund. no way i was going to pay an unstated sum of money for some course i didn't even know about and wasn't interested at all. i don't even have an atm card damnit. so they went to NTU and i went back to the mrt by my lonesome self.

i called momo and asked him wether he wanted to swim and he said ok because i offered to travel to yishun. then after quite a bit of travelling around yew tee there, he called me and said he doesn't want to swim cuz it looks like it's going to rain and that he didn't want to go to some other place to swim. sweet. so i go myself lor. fine

so i reached toa payoh, the rain had juz stopped. yay. lucky me. or so i think. then i called my mum who was supposed to meet me in the first place for a swimbut she said it was raining sooooo heavily and she just wants to help the freaking yan-gzheng primary for their competition but promises to come over and look me up for dinner. fine lor. so i went to the pool myself. i changed and put on suntan lotion and then tried to stuff everything in a 20cent locker but cannot stuff in. then weldon called. jean was on the other line and it took around 20 minutes in my swimming trunks at the locker for them to finally decide to pangseh the lao ren tml so we can go kayaking at kallang. yay. small victory for me. i thought. i ran out of 20cent coins. great. i changed with a nice auntie and stuffed my stuff in a 40cent locker. oh ya, i traded away my super old 10cent coin which i've been keeping in my wallet. hahahaha. so i swam and swam and swam. 40+ laps in the competition pool. wow~ i never fail to amaze myself. after tt i washed up and called my mum.

wow. my brother seems to be still sleeping and yan-gzhang really needs her so she can't leave. God, my brother is not even involved in the fricking competition. y does she have to be so busybody?! lose the fricking competition damnit. let the whole place burn down. so i had to eat my miserable dinner at burger king by myself at toa payoh.

i got totally pissed so i bought the new s.h.e album to cheer myself up. i got quite bored so i bought the "new revamped" lyme in hope that there may actually be something gd inside. i guess after reading men's health, lyme juz seems so bloody trivial and lame and kiddish and a waste of money. great.

so i come home and then i get bombarded with ed's self-doubt of being lousy at kayaking and sudden reconsideration on wether to go for 2 stars. and it doesn't help when weldon and jean's concience apparently decided to resurface at this time and kept getting me to go to bedok to kayak tml........after numerous attempts to get ppl to go kayaking with me so tt i may not need to make weldon and jean pang seh the lao ren, yinwei finally agreed. so happy. but weldon insists on going to bedok. then all the frickin complicated stuff came.they dunwan to betray their concience which would haunt them for ps-ing the lao ren. can bedok? then how to submit the application form for 2 stars? then ck how, ps him? ooh....ck didn't go and he wun be free. ooh...why don't we go for 16,17,18 at changi then we can ask more ppl? omg. then chalet aso need at least 3 ppl to kayak. yeppie? huh? see first. liyana? i dunno la, maybe no money, ya, ok, i'll go b4 the chalet, or maybe not. then wanna visit ed tml at kallang? or my mum at suntec? or juz heck care all of them and juz go out with yinwei. hahahahahaha.

hmm...lemme check my calender. oh my! only 14 days left in the entire holiday to complete ALL my holiday homework and revise and whatnot. wow~ then comes another question. should i quit co? can i handle it?

why are there so many frickin qns for me to find the answers? what am i supposed to do? i'm only human....so tired....................
can someone tell me what to do? 16,17,18 ar? no time to prac the skills in between leh. anyone told u 2 star onwards is failable? and changi beach is a frickin polluted piece of i dunno wad. and got weird ppl hang arnd there. and there's supposed to have hantu there. u really wanna go there? i dunno liao la! 4,11,18 dec at pasir ris? 3,4,18 dec at pasir ris? 16,17,18 dec at changi? who can make it for which day? weldon? jean? ck? ed? silas? victor? amanda? zhao wen? soon lee? jonathan? chee kong? me?

maybe i should just go for church camp and isolate myself from the rest of the world for 5 good days. but would i really be at peace? i dunno who will handle the 2 star course dates. i will worry about my undone holiday homework. i will brood over wether to quit co. give me a sign God.

my time is so worthless ar? i have to accomodate to everyone's schedule. even my brother. juz to watch a vcd with him still must wait for him to finish his chess game. and my foot is still numb. maybe no hope liao. why am i even wasting my efforts lamenting? probably no one cares.

i wonder when the girl of my dreams will appear.....it's so unfair...why am i supposed to sit back and wait while other ppl are happily with their steads? i'm just too worthless to take note of ba.

i really don't want to regret...i want to live everyday to the fullest...haha...s.h.e's album hardly having any fast track...amusing.....reach xing xing zhi huo liao...the end liao....until....tomorrow...cya.....o...ya..su.....mi........

ok! i woke up at around 10 am this morning. the weather was so bright and sunny la. i was like swearing "tmd", "wth", etc. i couldn't stand it so i went to swim at serangoon swimming complex. my bro wanted to go so i brought him along. i 4got to bring my sunatan lotion so i used his spf 30 sunblock. nvm la. oops. time flies. i quickly went home after that and went down to orchard to meet ed and momo. arnd 1 hr late. hee.

after that we went to scout for haircut places that had reasonable price and looked good. we walked arnd far east until we found klearcuts on the 5th floor. students' promotion: wash+ cut+ style for $20 (mon-fri before 5pm). so i went in 1st as e person said e 3 of us had to go 1 by 1. (some evil ploy. read on.) i got this MIC lady. she's quite nice la but when i couldn't really understand her at first. when she came over she touched the back part of my hair and asked "HEIGH cut?" i was like "huh? i dunno wadz that. can u show me?" after a few more tries she finally said "what do you want to do? colour your HEIGH? or cut your HEIGH or what?" i tot HEIGH cut was a new hair style la. ok la, it's her accent so it's not really her fault. so i kinda described what i wanted to her and she brought a japanese hair magazine over and looked and my head and the mag then finally pointed at one of the hairstyles and asked wether tt is ok. i quite ok one la so i said "ok la. let's try that". so she washed and conditioned my HEIGH. then she asked me what styling product i used. then she said kinda frowned and said "it sucks!". quite amusing really. so she cut cut cut. then wash again. and styled my hair. she managed to convince me to get some clay. i dunno why this always happens. everytime i got to a new hair salon, i will buy something. i mean i dun really regret la, i mean it's afterall for hair, but it kinda burns a hole in my pocket. after that ed got his hair cut. quite interesting la. but when it came to momo, the lady at the counter said it was full house and it would be 5pm soon and to come back another day. a bit sad la.

after that, we went to look for christmas exchange presents. it's a tradition we have to buy presents for each other and exchange them and be "surprised". haha. so we walked arnd far east somemore but couldn't find anything. so we went over to taka and i looked up uncle john who passed us his staff card but we didn't find anything so i returned the card to him. then we went down to heeren where we found a t-shirt for momo. the t-shirt is soooooooooooooooooo him la. hahaz.

after that we went to cine for dinner cuz momo was hungry. momo suggested that we ater at a certain KoXaXaXXi. honestly the food was not filling at all, overpriced and was barely edible. i would like to admonish you from eating there. haha. it only looks japanese and looks like food. it is actually neither. haha. ooh....they managed to find me..uhh....something that i'm not supposed to know. haha. after that we went to suntec and citylink to try to find something for ed. but we didn't find anything. since we were there, we went to the gachpon machines! i got a keroro gunsou keychain! as in the keroro gunsou himself. haha quite cute la. but i actually wanted the black one.

we then went to bugis. not bugis junction but the marketplace opposite. managed to get ed a bag. somehow i think it looks like bamboo's bag. but nvm la. can personalize with badges and such. we walked around in search of cheap t-shirts and found a store where the lady offered us $5 a piece if we bought 6 pieces or more! omg! and it's not the cheap cheap pasar malaam kind of material or print one la. it's quite nice and pretty good material one lor. after tt we went to get a drink form cold storage then went home.

on the way home, zhi yong called! the REAL bus is here! wow! and the school is diong the interior and exterior for us! and we've got a budget of around $4000 for stuff like cushion, tv and what not! omg! we might even be able to get a game console if we have power!!! so cool~~

oh ya, i think i've underestimated machi! instead of deproving, they've actually leveled up! the songs are yun wei! as in, they only sound good after a few times and tt means it will last longer rather than get irritating after a few times. go buy!

omg. now quite broke ar. hope still got enough for grad nite stuff. *yawnz* quite tired also. i think that's all for today. until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~

see! i told u ed! i told you that david guy in wu chu cai hong (rainbow connection)= ma xiao hu/vincent ma in wo he jiang shi you ge yue hui 3: yong heng guo du(i have a date with a vampire 3)! ooh...and apparently the jianyi in rainbow is not = ella's boyfriend in zhen ming tian nv! was too free and scanned through the mdeiacorp forums and found they are twins. too free juz now lah. seems like got a lot of bo liao ppl posting also.

ah. we decided to relocate from yck swimming complex to somewhere else cuz there wasn't much sun at yck. so ed called a few of his friends in the west and according to fred bukit batok had "clear and sunny weather" and the swimming pool was "very near the mrt station" so we went all the way down to bukit batok. when we got there, it was juz abt as sunny as yck...-_-"...anyway we went and searched for the pool. we managed to find it but not before being mistaken as MIC's by a nice couple who tried to show us the way but had horrible MIC detection skills.

we swam and swam until it was so cold that my fingers went kinda numb. we washed up and left. we decided to go to jurong point since we were already all the way in the west. so we walked around jp and bought some food. we took mrt home in order to catch froggy. omg! so scary! we some old guy like 40+ or 50+ with sagging cheeks who wore a stud and those trendy plastic spectacles! how disgusting! please don't act young until so extreme lah....kaoz. this disturbing incident made me remember clothes and hair and accessories can't make you what you are. what's most important is what's inside. don't try to act as what you are not....but of course you should try to look gd while u r young or u will either regret or turn out as a visual joke when u get older. LOL

it's the finale for froggy~ so sad~ no show worth catching liao. the s.h.e zhen yao ming tian nv seems to have a weak plot and the only watch factor is s.h.e lor. dl more shows to watch ba.

wow~ momo resurrected his blog~ so cool~ yea, that's our peachy-boy! no la, i don't think u r a geek~ hahaz. juz overcome ur slight inferiority complex.

ed is going 1 star kayaking this weekend~ anyone else interested to go with him? oh ya, we are going for 2 star probably on 3,4,18 or 4,11,18 dec. quite hard to decide ar. ck, weldon, ed and i can make it for both. anyone else interested? asked silas when he can make it and to get soon lee and jonathan's contacts from kenneth (pls be nice?) and ask them too. hmm...3,4,18 will be with yeppie and her np frenz but it's at pasir ris. 4,11,18 is at the preferred kallang but means missing 3 consecutive weeks of church.(ok la, actually i can turn up for arnd 1/2 hr of worship. it's the thought tt counts right?) hmm....

hmm...that should be all for today. wish me gd luck tml as i get a haircut. can trust far east ppl rite? time to do work! well, until i report on my haircut tml, cya~ oyasumi~

kaoz. the weather is so cold and so cloudy today that i had to change my plans. i had initially wanted to go swimming with my mum and bro in the afternoon. but couldn't.

so i went to school in the morning for meeting. i have to come up with a 1st draft of the script for the video by friday...hmm....better get started soon.

fell asleep on the bus home and had walked home from amk. mum made some fried dumplings for lunch. quite nice lah. i had it with mayo somemore. i guess guilt kicked in and i decided to go to the gym. i managed to get liyana to go with me. haha.

so we went to the gym at toa payoh. went to buy some pancake mix and dried apricots after that. we went to have dinner at koufu. then we took 105 home. of course all this while she was talking abt her XYZ....haha. of course i must irritate her back by asking her abt my hair and sunburn and piercing issue and bag issue. hahaz.

hmm.....the new machi album not very good leh....i don't think i will buy...kinda disappointed. nvm la. muz save up for stuff to wear on grad nite. maybe might buy s.h.e ba. jay's very good! but dun feel like buying. hahaz. uhh.....support original! LOLz

100th post~~ w00t~~~

wow~ it's already the 100th post? so fast~ thank you guys for your continuous support!

went for worship this morning waaaay early at 8.30am. it's been a rrreeeeaaaalllly llloooooonnnggg time since i've been to worship. i usually juz for sunday school. yupz so i went.

after sunday school i went to serangoon mrt and met up with ed. i topped-up my exlink card and we took 853 to yishun to meet momo. we walked to the yishun swimming complex once we met up. but they were having some compeition there so we located to our usual bishan swimming complex.

there was like no sun today la. so sianz. after swimming, we went to j8 for dinner. but that's not before we bought some food from the stall at the pool. i bought some fries which turned out kind of unsatisfactory. oh no my sunburnt areas still look blotchy and my tanlines r still very obvious. muz work harder on getting rid of them.

we went tot j8 for dinner after swimming. but that' not before we went to check out the xiao yuan superstar filiming. omg. many of the ppl who signed up r really quite crappy la. one of the tj volleyballers got in though. hmm... did i mention that i saw meihui at orchard yesterday?

yupz yupz. we had dinner and then went home to watch ma xiao ling. oh ya, never eat onigiri from bishan edo sushi. they got no skill at all.

hmm...dunno why i've been thinking of getting piercing leh. what do you think? do leave your comments or leave a message at the tagboard. i juz wanna put stud....hmm....i hope my future gf won't mind.....

ooh! my feet rcovered quite a lot last night so i decided not to see the doctor. thank God for the speedy recovery!

omg. can someone tell me wad i'm supposed to do as part of the logistics team for the grad nite itself? and the standard attire? i have to start preparing soon leh......

the price for the e2 chalet has been changed to $25 so that we may provide better and more food. chilli stingray, stuffed baked potatoes, toriyaki chicken wings are just some of the special stuff you can look out for. we will still have the usual sausages, otah, city satay and balls. i think this yr's chalet will be much better than last year! (cuz we can go kayaking instead of plain ol' cycling) yea. and kayaking is so much cheaper than cycling la. btw, liyana and ed r probably going for their 1 star course in december b4 the chalet. let's wish them good luck! and better register fast.

ok la, late liao. so, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

i've.....become so numb......

went kayaking with silas and victor in the morning at kallang. it was springtide so the water level was unusually high. quite nice. we could kayak all the way to where there's grass la. practiced our skills in preperation for 2 stars. saw kenneth. he was taking another group. after that we went to the beach road hawker centre for lunch.

after that went to bras basah and met up with keng foo to buy paints for the banner/backdrop. he actually walked from city hall lah. i went to the library and borrowed a book on japanese while waiting.

went to orchard to meet up with my mum. wah~ bought so many things today at taka! billabong sleeveless top! arena goggles! reebok shorts! scented balls! (for my funny smelling locker) badminton racket! (share one la. but heck care.) all paid for with my mum's vouchers! so happy~~ thanks mum!

omg...part of my left foot is still numb even after one week. it became numb after kayaking. i think it was the shoes i was wearing. that part of the feet was pressing on some hard part of the shoes the whole time la. i think i go see doctor tml bah. at least it's not changing colour. (thank God!!!)

nyaa~ can't decide the date for 2 star! muz try to accomodate everyone but can't. try my best bah. i think better go register asap.

*yawnz* feeling woozy. muz be tired from all the activities today. i helped ed do some of his stuff. but he's not online yet...wait 4 him then send him then go slp bah.

well, that's all for today. tml will be an early day for me.(so excited!) until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

i just realized that i like electronic music! no, it's not techno and i'm not a beng or beng wannabe. i'm just afraid that i might get stupid if i listen too much of it cuz it's so relaxing it juz kinda numbs the brain. i like e faster tracks with heavier beats though. ed says it's kinda trance-ish. in fact i get a little irritated by the slower tracks.

so, our plans to go swimming were totally ruined by the heavy downpour in the morning. we just slept in late and went to orchard in the afternoon. i was late but momo was even later. ed and i actually walked all the way to tanglin while waiting for him to arrive. when he finally arrived, we walked all the way back to orchard mrt.

first, we went to grab a bite at takashimaya. omg! there was 1A curry puff! i bought like 2 la. hmm....i still think the one at TM is nicer. the taka branch one is too dry. the TM one u can really see the curry lor. after that we went to heeren. checked out HMV and the other stores. can't seem to find a suitable bag for swimming.

after that, we went to DFS to ka chiao amande. we took all e escalators up to the 4th floor where we found her. but she shooed us off and her co-workers looked kinda scary. then, we crossed the overhead bridge to far east. oh ya, the 3 of us decided to cut our hair there next wk. we ate the legendary fried mars bar. i shudder whenever i'm reminded of how much calories and fats it contains.

we decided to make our way to kinokuniya when we saw kerrin. then some auntie claimed that we were "lucky" to meet her and asked nicely for some donations. the green man started flashing and we quickly crossed the road. after kino, we went to PS. at ps, we went to the world of sports where we saw some crrr-ocssss shoes/sandals. then we started talking abt it rather loudly. we said that although it was quite comfy, it also looked damn ugly and we we wondering aloud where the hell would u wear them when we saw a guy at the rack wearing them. his girlfriend obviously heard us but it was too late. no choice, siam ar!! then i went to comics connections and finally bought my tristia of the deep blue sea! (chinese ver)

came home in time to catch e last few minute of today's froggy. my bro crashed e com (AGAIN) but i managed to revive it. (yay)

hmm....talking abt bengs juz now. ed defines bengs as "drop-outs or eye-tee-yee students+ dye hair+ piercings+ vulgarities+ smoking+ bad fashion sense+ squat at bustops+ gangs". now, there wouldn't be many "bengs" around then huh?

actually i'm e easy-going type of person who don't mind getting along with practically anyone who doesn't have AP and is not on drugs. preferably non-smokers la, but still ok as long as they dun puff into my face.

well, that's all for today, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

DISCLAIMER: the definition of "bengs" given is purely ed's point of view. this does not indicate pOlar^bEar's stand on this issue and is not to be held responsible for any injury caused.

regrets....i regret not getting all the contacts of e kayak ppl....i've only got victor's number hmm....anyway....if anyone of you is reading this, can gimme ur e-mail so i can add you on msn? (yea, amanda, that's you if you're reading this!) dun haf to gimme here la. my friendster aso can. i miss everyone. we can all be kayak buddies!

anyway, i went to the gym with ed today. liyana got fever so she can't go with us. how can liddat pang-seh in the last minute? anyway, we spent around 2 hrs in the gym. kinda tiring. then we went to have soya milk and some onigiri and sushi. after that i had to go to tj for co. *yawnz*came home and watched tiramisu. anyone got the song? the vocal version of the ending? they played last time. very nice~ i think it's better than the instrumental one they r playing now.

was discussing how people define "cool" with ed last night cuz i realize i may appear kinda "cute" in some photos. can't stand it. wanna be cool~~ so we discovered there's beng-cool which isn't very effective and grosses some girls out. and there's cool-cool, e very slick type. and sporty-cool? but i realized there's cute-cool which i think is wad i want. haha. i aso dunno how la. maybe i'm juz crapping. anyway, we aso came up with a list of stuff we wanted to buy this hols: sling bag for swimming&gym-ing, clothes, accessories & shoes. muz start saving money.

hmm...i think i'm a very friend-oriented person. can't do without friends. i don't mean depend on them or wad but i think it's great to have people whom you can care for each other. sigh~ dunno y getting so sentimental.friendship = strength. i wanna make more friends~~~ roar~

oh ya, if haven't noticed, i've added the new tagboard yesterday! w00t! now you can leave me messages without using the stupid reply function.

i went to the gym alone today. ok la. but the yio chu kang gym doesn't haf music. how boring.

hmm...outlook for the next few days: i'll be going to the gym with liyana, ed and maybe momo if he wants. then i have to go for co by 4.30pm. i'll have to get to school for co by 2.30pm on wednesday. thursday looks free but it's e oopening of harry potter and i might get dragged down if there are actually decent seats. or anyone who wants to do anything else can also ask me. kayaking on friday @ bedok! won't feel the same without everyone but, well, i dunno la. probably wun take the whole day so still can do other stuff after that.

omg. i think in me invocated...just feel like doing very wild things. hahaha. well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

waah~~ the 1 star kayaking course was so fun!! in the end, only jean, chun kiat, weldon and i went for the course. so the other 6 participants are all strangers. but, we managed to hit off pretty! they were all very friendly. they are amanda, zhao wen, silas, victor, jonathan and soon lee. our instructor is called kenneth and he has a twin brother kenny, i think, who teaches at the same club which made it very confusing for us.

ok, silas knows kenneth because they went for some expedition in thailand before. so he brought his cousin, victor, and friend, amanda. amanda, in turn brought her other friend zhao wen. hmmm...a bit sad tt i didn't really got to talk much with the girls cuz i'm kinda shy with gals. hee. oh ya, silas is from nyp and is in climbing. jonathan will give an impression that he's a beng la. i mean dunno how many earring/ear studs la. he smokes summore la. *ahem*underage*ahem* but once you talk to him you realize that he's quite a nice person la, not the AP type of person you would imagine him to be. he even told us how he pierced his own tongue with a needle and stud la. scary. but seriously, i would like to admonish anyone who would want to smoke not to. he's only 16 but he looks older than us la. conclusion: smoking makes you age faster. hahaz. then there's soon lee. he's the oldest in our group at 24. he works at singpost jurong east branch i think as a trainee manager.

ok, so we learnt the parts of the kayak. clarification: kayak has a deck, canoe doesn't. also foward row, reverse row, J-draw, classical draw, capsize drill and somem basic rescue work. omg. kallang water is DIRTY. trust me. low tide is the worse. you get slimy sludgy stuff at the coast and lots of leaves and whatever rubbish you throw into the longkang and gets washed into the river. you can even see a thin layer of oil at some parts la.

oh ya, we saw the nyjc dragonboat team training. said hi to xueling, hui sin, wei ling and jia jun. well, i passed 1 Star! w00t! next: 2 star! i exchanged numbers with victor so we maybe we can all go for 2 star together! oh yes, i just have to mentino that the seasports club is so stingy that we had to pay an additional $2 to laminate our certificate la. sigh~

ok, jean's birthday was yesterday so she went to meet her parents for dinner after the lesson. so we celebrated with her today. so, after everything, we took bus to marine parade and met keng foo, shouvik and anurag. then we blindfolded jean and pushed her into a taxi and took her to spizza at serangoon gardens (she didn't know of course). then we celebrated her birthday there! amande met us there and it was elke's last night as a waitress there. the food was not bad la but the cake that we bought for her was the best!

yea~ these 2 days had been so fun. looking foward to more fun activities coming up. w00t. so, that's all for today. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

i cut my hair today! thanks yan ling for going with me. ooh, e guy gave more hair styling tips this time.

1) use good shampoo or risk hair loss!
2) don't ever let hair wax touch your scalp!
3) spread wax over your palms and apply to the ends of the hair.
4) use hair spray or mix with gel to prevent the wax from "melting" and getting into your scalp if going under the sun.
5) girls let your hair down as often as you can. tying up for too long gives your follicles too much stress and can cause hair loss. (he told yan ling)

nyaa~ waking up early from tomorrow onwards to train pull-ups with oac ppl. they are actually quite a friendly bunch. don't be intimidated by them.

omg. muz study chinese~ argh tutorials~ argh bye bye mrs lim~ well, at least we are taking a break from pw. so can at least have more time for chinese.

cut my lips playing the suona yesterday. ouch. i think it was the new reed cray lent me. too hard sia~

oh ya, the cashier we saw at the 7-eleven not-very close to tj, the one nearer sumo house, looked suspiciously like a guy. i mean she just doesn't look right....and innocent jinhe kept asking us wad a "ren yao" was. LOL

omg. another tiring saturday. i think all my following saturdays would be something like that.

woke up at 7am to go to school for mass dance practice and physical training. damn suay sia. missed the train by 1 minute then took a bus to the back gate....only to find that it's not open on saturdays. fark. i had to run all the way the side gate at the front. one of the cases when it's bad having such a big school compound. was late for dunno how many minutes la. sux man. so we practiced e "dhoom" dance over and over again. then all who was late today or were late before (which was practically everyone) had to do pt. we did 50 push-ups, 50 crunches and ran 5 rounds the track (although i ran 6).not too bad la, but not the kind of thing you would want to do on a saturday morning. many of the councillors ponned again la, for dunno wadever reason they have. wether valid or not. argh.

after that, we waited for a really long time before we went to parkway for lunch. keng foo said he preferred to eat at the food court so some of us went with him while the rest went to burger king. omg! it's daylight robbery! i ordered a plate of very normal looking chicken rice and it cost $3.20!!!! kaoz. yea, so i ordered a drink and finished my food. then we left.

i took 135 to paya lebar mrt station and took the train all the way to bishan to meet up with ed. momo went too kaixiang's place and bamboo had pw meeting today. sigh~ so it was 2 of us again.

uhh...after 20 laps of the breadth of the pool we went off. he went home for dinner while i hanged around j8 till my mum and bro and dad came. we had mosburger for dinner. it's been a while since we had that. walked around j8. nothing much. then went to the supermarket.

and we came back. i washed my hair. and now it's wet. so i have to wait for it to dry before i can go to sleep. hmm...i think i should cut it sometime soon.

crap. haf to wake up at 5am tml for the stupid pw meeting at bedok at 7.30am to 9.30am. that's right. it's a sunday morning tommorow. omg...i think i'm reaching my limits soon.

crap la. this period is crazy. besides chionging op, still haf the regular tutorials and the 'ao' chinese paper la. i dunno why people are either treating or pretending that it's totally not important. tutors: if u are reading this, cut us some slack! it's already the last week of school and we need the time to prepare for the 'ao' mother tongue papers the following monday so we can spend more time concentrating on the other subjects next year once we get decent grades for chinese. and the stupid op and i&r isn't helping either. argh, i wish it's all over....so many things to juggle and obviously sunita is totally nonchalant about the about her malay papers cuz she isn't allowing us any time to study for our chinese papers (in whatever way we can) at all. william says there's no need/way to study for it but i beg to differ. there's always something we can do about it. and please, not everyone is like him leh. sometimes he deserves a hit on the head also. i mean, i don't treat him like an opponent or target like zi jian does but, hey, sometimes he takes his grades for granted la. not everyone can get the same scores as him la.

my conclusion: we need some time off tutorials. onegai~ it doesn't help when the maths teacher is suddenly very agitated by our promos results and get all preachy. we need some time off op as much as we can until after 'ao's. do try to prevent damage similar to what manning the grad nite booth has done. anyway, we still got 2 weeks after 'ao's to sort everything out. pw, is important, but 'ao's is also very important. and oh yeah, it would take a lot of our already limited and precious time to read books on presentation skills, no matter how much it would help, so should we read some books on speed reading while we are at it? must chiong for 'ao's. must get into the proper exam mood la. juz bcuz many ppl heck care doesn't mean i have to. i want to do well for my chinese. it's still my mother tongue afterall, wether i like it or not.

ah, my hair is dry. can go sleep now. so i can wake up at 5am. i'm so excited and elated. woohoo~ xiao ren, qing xiao xin hui zhe shou...until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

today is the official submission for WR! we've handed up our FINAL version after working till late in the night last night. feels quite funny but it's not over yet. there's still chinese in around 1 week and op in 3 weeks. oh ya, i reall need to do something about my chinese. i can't just leave it like that just because my chinese class says so. my chinese sucks~~

omg. after watching the other group's presentation, sunita decided we needed to revamp our op slides totally. we've got to hurry! not much time left!

nyaa~ densha otoko rawks! i'm at episode 2 and i'm already hooked. i really have no idea what will happen for the next 9 episodes and the special. A-A-A-Aoyama-s-s-s-san.....so chio~ sianz man. can't see my Hermes-san...T_T

i'll try my best in whatever i'm going to do! i believe i can do it! nyaa~ been forgetting to bring lecture notes and tutorials. the post exam shock effect hasn't worn off yet. kuru~ 1 more week of school....

oh ya, no more cg's nex yr....a bit sad la. no more miss kang...i hope our new civics tutor is not the......super-boring-with-sudden-mood-swings type.

ok, so now jean, zhiyong, chun kiat and jinhe are interested in going for 1 STAR kayaking. sarah is going to ask some of her friends too. i think i better call the sea sports club to ask how many people they need before they will open up a class. nyjc sc is going for it as a council la. so good. they say it's inpreparation for council camp next year. and they are having a chalet. i want aso!!!! why tj sc seems to have no life, or rather no life together, in comparison.

i better remember to call up the people to tell them i wanna change my subscription of magazine too. i love my new shampoo~~ Loreal~~ it's really good la. nopez, they didn't pay me to advertise. i think it's even better than the 1 bottle for $18 i used before.

hmm....can't slack this holidays also. council, holiday assignments, consolidating my yr 1 work, co, exercise and dunno what else. omg~ i juz found out this week that the tj swim team actually trains EVERY DAY. crazy sia~ i wanna go k-box~~

went to 7-eleven just now. wanted to buy chips and men's health. but i decided that it was too ironical and decided to buy the magazine another day. hey, who can resist a big bag of chips at $3.25 and comes with a free 500ml bottle of coke?

yawnz~ tml is going to be another long day. better sleep now. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

crap. the weather sux. why does it almost always rains when we wanna go swimming? argh. now i'm stuck at home with my dad....sigh~

anyway, the past 2 days were great!

Friday:

it was open house! quite a lot of ppl actually came down. i was quite happy that more zhonghuarians came than i had expected. i showed some of them around. one of the places we visited was the scope and the container classroom where all the yr 2 'a' lvl art pieces were being displayed. omg! i'm so addicted to zi rui's artwork! it's made of 12000 glass bottles filled with coloured water arranged in a pattern. u can even walk on it! the glass bottles are the milk bottles used in hospitals and she had to unlabel and wash every single one of the bottles!! and it looked so nice.

oh ya, we sprayed our hair with all kinds of ostentatious colours. blue! red! white! green! glitter! it was fun la. but i felt a little stupid when i took the train and bus home. and it wash damn hard to wash out. it took 2 rinses to completely get it out la.

koaz. e sissy and gay clarence and mingkai came together with some of the girls from their class. unfortunately i had to show them around. it was a totally disturbing experience. the 2 gays totally went gaga over national swimmer mark chay who came back. it was totally revolting. brr. it still gives me goosbumps thinking about it. i'm so ashamed that there are actually such people from zhonghua. i dun want everyone to think that everyone in zhonghua is like that. at least i managed to leave them in the lep room with jinhe and co. phew~ bcuz of them i missed e chance to bring betsy and yiching around la.

well, some of the gals who came r not bad la but i dun think all of them will come to tj bcuz it's a curse. oh ya, have i mentioned that there are actually pretty good looking girls in the dance society?

oh ya! i managed to get to know more people today! sunita's sister gita who is younger but taller than her! mei xuan, the girl who takes the same bus as me in the morning almost everyday but i've never spoken to! she happens to be sunita's friend. now i have someone to talk to in the morning! and Bikash, e guy who totally trashed me in soft tennis. sunita introduced us to each other. hmm...seen him get on the bus at mt vernon b4...he's nepalese.....is he gurkha? it's fun making new friends.

Saturday:

sailing was so fun!

i first took 24 to tanah merah interchange and met william there and we took a cab down to the national sailing centre. we had a really quick and brief course on the basics on sailing. all the pointing and bearing and whatnot. "pointing" reminds me of petanque. hahaz.

then we paired up with a member of the school sailing club and got into a sailboat. i paired up with heng yi. another new friend. hahaz, so fun. so he gave me instructions and i followed. in case u were wondering, tacking is to turn the boat away from the wind, like when making a u-turn. when tacking, the sail will move from one side of the boat to the other and unless u duck, ur head will get hit by the boom. then muz quickly move to the other side of the boat to balance it. always sit opposite to the sail. it was so fun! we capsized on purpose too. haha.

after that, we helped wash up a bit, showered and i went off to SA! omg!!!! the legend is true! so many chio bus. oh ya, in order to get the SA open house shoe bag, i juz lied that i was sec 5. they scanned my ezlink and have a record now la. but who cares! buahahaha! the exclusive sa open house 2005 shoe bag is now mine! buahaha!

jean, amande, elke and keng foo wore their secondary school uniforms la. hahaz. it was ok la. but i still think tj totally owned except for the girls la. haha. the dance society also la. the girls may look good but their movements weren't as fluid as tj's. no wonder tj dance got gold with honours. they had a few male dancers too. eeew.

it was so-so la. after that i went to dhoby ghaut and met up with ed. we went into ps and found his classmates lauretta, chee kong, sammyn, siew kiang and wilfred. so we moved as a group. the girls took an extremely long time to shop la kaoz. they even went to times and picked up books from the "sex" section and tried to hide it while they read with a guiness book of world records. they were like a giggly la. hahaz. after we finished walking around in ps, we went to hmv. they have the SweetS album that was just released that i wanted! but, kaoz, they brought in the first pressing edition and it costs SGD$90+!!!!!!!! nooooooo.

after that we went to cineleisure and ate bk. we saw sammy, jiayi and weldon when crossing the road. then they saw a yr2 councillor from aj in front of us with his gf while walking towards cine. (ed was telling me that one of the graduated seniors commented that this guy and qi cai are handsome while ed is cool. LOL) then while eating bk, i saw royston, shufang, yunhui, jacky, alex and zongrong. when we were done eating, ed called kerrin up and realized that she was with some of their councillors and were also in orchard. lol. it's a small world in orchard. they went to meet up wth kerr and the others while chee kong and i left 1st.

i took the train to toa payoh where i met up with my mum. we bought hair colour, shampoo and i also bought like 5 manga. i'm quite broke now. hahaz. wow. i still can't believe i actually did so many things in 1 day. i hope there can be more days like these. life would somehow feel so meaningful. rather than juz sitting in front of the com or tv pushing buttons or just sleeping the day away.

......yea, like wad i'm doing now. bcuz of the rain i'm still stuck...nuthing much to do except read the managa i bought and use the com or watch vcd's since there' nothing to watch on tv.

oh ya! after the sailing elective, i realized that i actually really do love sea sports! i really enjoy kayaking, canoeing, swimming, sailing and dragonboating(ok la, or whatever little experience i have dragonboating)! i decided to pursue my interests and i wanna go for the kayaking STAR courses! i think i'm going for the 1 STAR course in nov. it'll be after chinese and op. so far, jean and zhiyong are going too. amande hasn't replied yet. any interested party feel free to contact me!

wow! we are starting preparation for orientation. we are already coming up with logo designs for the orientation!

well, that's all for today! until next time, cya~

haha! really really short shorts.

ooh!!! downloaded Orange Range's new album, Natural. some of the songs r quite....not my type but the rest are pretty good. i wanna get the SweetS album. i think i'll check out HMV on saturday when we go down to orchard. i seriously need more music (and disk space).

went out with liyana today. since the rest of the guys all have school today, we just went out alone. it was quite funny cuz i hadn't eaten lunch but liyana is having puasa(fasting). so i purporsely ate bratwurst which she couldn't eat in the first place cuz it's pork so she won't be tempted. it's really good~ oishi~

we went to ps. omg! got SA girls! the legend is true! too bad they with guys. sigh~ well, we watched corpse bride. it was so-so lah. but it was quite funny when everyone started clapping when the bad guy was going to die.

the asics store in ps was having clearance sale! 50% off storewide! it must be fate. haha. bought a green polo tee. and of course a pair of reeeaaallly short pairs of black running shorts. i think it's the shortest pair i have. dunno wether i dare to wear to school or not. looks like only trekkers wear to school leh. lol. i stil think it was quite a good catch. bought kettle chips from carrefour. liyana helped me pick a hair dye colour. i'll buy it another day and dye my hair after op. yea. haha. and liyana has finally diagnosed me with dry hair. no wonder it can break even though my hair is so short. argh. i'm going to change shampoo. and my mum tells me i have oily hair. lesson learnt: never trust mums about appearances. hahaz.

went back to serangoon and liyana bought some chips on her way to her grandma's so she can eat them after dusk when they break fast.

argh. the sentai episode is really taking too long to download....so irritated. 3 eps of magirangers and 6 eps of bleach to catch up. then still have ueki, mai-otome/hime and densha otoko. i hope to finish downloading mai-hime before episode 3 of mai-otome is released. oh ya, i like to download by 3's bcuz i would burn them into vcd's anyway. so if i download as soon as they are released, they would take up too much disc space. sorry lah. my com is old. i hope i can get a new one next year when the new os is released.

well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

after a few laps and a pathetic attempt to swim the breaststroke (i usually do frog-style. sorry la. i stopped after getting e beginner cert.), we went over to his house to watch all the dates with a vampire 3 that we missed over the past 2 weeks. ma xiaoling's skirt is so short~~~ aaah~~ but takuya, small R, mars and the bloody idiot wulong died. so sad. the SDU is short of 4 people now. but who cares, they r all guys. lolz.

[#02/22]
current music: AAA - BLOOD on FIRE

in case u were wondering, AAA is a new japanese group. it actually stands for Attack All Around. yea, the gals r hot. juz ignore the guys.

spent the day studying at home. maybe that's why i got into such a philosophical mood today. i was chatting with ed and i think the thing started with the question is posed to him, "do u think it's tougher as a student or as a working adult?". he says that being a student is tougher and qualifies his stand by saying 'students have more stress' and that 'students don't have much choice whereas an adult can juz quit if he likes' but i managed to rebut with some point like 'how will the adult support his expenses and family' and 'adults have stress too'. then he said that the adult can just forget about having a family but i said that it would be quite sad. what's the meaning of life if there isn't people that you love that you will do anything to protect them and provide for them?

we left that discussion hanging and moved on to making conclusions like "what's important is to make full use of what you have now" and "do everything you want so you don't regret". then talked about the future and he says that he enjoys office politics. i'm ok with a little gossip but i don't like the manipulation.

then i said that i actually kind of look foward to ns because i can get fitter and also have more really close friends. very strong friendships will be forged when we go through all the hardships together. he said what if they were bad company so i said that in the end it all comes down to each person's beliefs and principles. i believe that true friendship will cause all the parties involved to influence and be influenced by each other. his conclusion? "adapt but remain unchanged". i feel kinda differently though. i think we should be more open-minded and be ready to embrace changes as long as our integrity and priciples are not compromised.

aah. that brought me to this quote i saw on a calender. "strangers are friends you have yet to meet..." i think it's something that we all know but tend to 4get. and somehow it seems to be full of hope.

i said that maybe i'm just a sentimental fool. then he goes on about how he has lost contact with his primary school friends and is jealous that i'm still in touch with mine. then he goes on about the future is unpredictable and that friendships may fade over time. so i said "that's why we should live 'today' to the fullest". i wanna party...meet more people...clubbing sounds like such a fun prospect.

we sounded so philosophical today. seems like we've grown mentally without much realisation. but physically still got catching up to do! muz catch up during holidays and make full use of the time we have! if not how to attract girls? haha. just joking la, i know girls are not that shallow. but i just want to be at least the average standard mah. the important is that "you just have to believe that you can do it".

then we moved on to discuss which of the 7 deadly sins would most likely cause our downfall. he said that it would probably be greed, because without greed, the other sins wprobably wouldn't arise. i think it would most probably be lust or envy for me. i tend to get jealous when i see other guys better than me. why are they so fit? how come they have such great(looking)girlfriends? (lol)how come they are so multi-talented? then he said that actually these are normal human reactions so why are these sins? maybe because we should strive for perfection? haha. i said that my current target of envy is one of the guys from eye for a guy 2, that jeffy han dude. why is he so fit? how come he got to be with denise keller for so many weeks even though he didn't win? (ok la, maybe i sound kinda stupid)then ed said that it probably isn't envy but he is just some kind of role model to me. i guess i just wanna be more like him. haha. so can charm more girls. lol. i think the primary cause is still lust.

well, i think it's a luxury that we can still spend time thinking about things like these. it's fun and enlightening. more studying tomorrow. until, next time, cya~ oyasumi~ (time to drink more milk! muz grow taller!)

current music: Otsuka Ai - Planetarium
current download: Oricon WEEKLY BEST 30 [34.3%]

ltnb! (long time no blog!) been busy preparing for promos! quite a bit has happened during this period!

there is an anomalous trend this year in tjc! yr 1's are ponning lectures and tutorials or even school altogether to study at home! tutors and seniors alike have testified that they have never seen it before, in the case of the former, or that they simply heck cared promos, for the latter of course. being a person who has my own set of principles, of course i never pon any lesson at all. haha. the record for the smallest number of people at a tutorial for my class would be like 9 of us.

we played basketball for mass p.e. and got totally trashed. some soccer dude slammed into me in one of the matches and i got scratched by my glasses. roar~ oh yea, have i mentioned my plan to train after promos? goal: silver for next year's napfa! can i please grow another 2 cm in the process? my ideal height is 1.8m~ 6ft~ i'll be satisfied after tt~ i aso want more defined cheekbones~ maybe become more tan? aiyah, juz train then see what happens la.

hmm...here's my promo exam timetable:
Monday (3/10) - General Paper [0800-1130](3.5h)
'AO' Chinese [1330-1645](3h 15min)
Thursday (6/10) - Mathematics [0800-1100](3h)
Biology [1330-1630](3h)
Friday (7/10) - Chemistry [1430-1710](2h 40min)
Monday (10/10)- Physics [0800-1030](2.5h)

after that, i can start my training!!!!! w00t! and preparing for the 'AO' chinese paper at the end of the month. and op. and open house. and orientation. and practice my suona. huh...no time to party....

well, i think i found some of my weak chapters and i'm trying my best to work these out. GP! omg! i hope that i really picked up the necessary skills. chinese! God bless me. the rest still need patching up here and there. sigh~ hope i can achieve the goals i set for myself.

oh yea! Happy Children's Day to all who consider themselves children! (hmm...i'm still pay the child's fare at the public swimming pool, so do i get a present?) Kid's central is showing some children's day specials and is starting off Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi and Masked Rider 555 (ok, tt's like 2 years lagging, but nvm la. u know their standards). too bad we'll probably be busy studying. sigh~ how i miss those carefree days~ i do regret not being sporty since primary school though.

i cut my hair on monday. don't really like it. argh.

well, that's all for today! so until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

p.s.: don't stop studying till promos are over guys! (and gals of course)

current music: Exile - DIAMOND
currently revising: Physics Chp 9 - Oscillations

nyaa~ had group study with liyana and momo today at toa payoh. we started at mac but left at around 3.30pm bcuz they were going to have a party. then we walked around more before we finalized the relocation at mosburger. ate so much fast food today... oh ya, i aso bought Bleach 18, Exile - Perfect Best and some hair wax today. so broke. haha.

haven't read bleach yet. but seems pretty good.(as always) hmm...maybe too much a good thing is a bad thing. 29 Exile tracks back to back can be quite...you know...oh ya, DIAMOND is very good! it's from the EXIT single though, not the perfect best album.

everyone seems so jaded by the stupid promos...of course i'm also included...how to have proper revision with so much tutorials and e stupid pw? pw sux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GP and chinese on the same day....haha....then maths and bio...ho seh....then chem...then physics...then prepare for op....then 'AO' chinese paper....so tiring....thank God my EoM approved liao...then lately so many people and things are propelling me to......confess

prince turns into frog quite entertaining. watched pokemon and gransazers this morning. did you know the guy acting as tappei/sazer gans in gransazers also acted as tachibana kippei in the Prince of Tennis musicals? i think he's quite an interesting character in gransazers. hey, i've never seen another superhero who wears shorts and flip-flops and has a stubbly face. i think ai/sazer pisces is the chio-est of the 4 female gransazers! yupz my favourite tribe is of course aqua tribe. go leviathian!

i think i need one of those nihonhon head-nodding things...maybe will feel better. haha. how...what if i can't finish revising......i realised that there are many people who have the same ambition that i have....feel so....mainstream.....i don't like e feeling...why...GP seemed quite fun a few months ago...but...

argh...pw tml...can't revise...my gut feeling tells me quite a lot of time will be wasted...after that another week of struggle between completing tutorials, revising and getting enough sleep. dunno why i can't help doozing or dazing off during lectures....maybe it's a curse...anyway, 2 more weeks till promos...

until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

[平日のコンピュータ無し]の法則 - no computer on weekdays! except for pw purposes only.

you may be wondering what i am doing. these are just visual reminders of what to do and not to do during this period while preparing for promos! the ¤ßV^ etc. are "seals" to seal off those specific distractions. the 法則 (housoku) are guidelines of what to do.

omg! i can't stand pw! urgh! how to stuff so many details into 750words for chapter 3? kaoz~~~ they want details and they want to limit the number of words you can use. it's the stupidest subject ever created....

ahh...school reopens tml. all thanks to pw i haven't finished my tutorials. well, at least all PDP's are taking a break so i'll have more time for tutorials and revision at the same time. (but we all know councillors never really get breaks. grad nite publicity extends all the way to promos. hallelujah. may God bless me.) can't afford to flunk promos! no matter what!

oh crap man. i typed everything liao then e stupid thing said "cannot find server" when i clicked publish and when i clicked back everything was gone. roar~ gonna summarize now.

ok. we wanted to swim. rained. so met kerrin, cheekong and ed at orchard near where the head was found yesterday. kerin conned her dad to buy her an i-pod nano. so small. we went to lido. saw this group of people who are apparantly in some race. weird thing, they are all in red. weirder thing, all the guys are crossed-dressed.

the guys are in dresses and pigtails?
and night gowns and bikinis?
i still dunno what happened.

dinner at lido. we all ate subway. no nice movies. went to pacific plaza to get "someone" a present. "someone" probably won't be reading this but safety first to keep it a surprise. went to cineleisure. no nice movie aso. crossed over the HMV. we bought "my boyfriend is type b" vcd. went to kerrin's house to watch. it was quite nice la. our $3.25 each was rather well spent. the show ended at 11plus!

we went to the bus stop opposite kerrin's house to take a bus to amk central. there was a beng-ish guy in an orange top at the bus stop. i'm quite sure i know him...but i just can't remember who. got this feeling should be from taekwondo one. i've not gone for training for far too long. maybe i will join back once all the promos chaos are over. kinda miss training. hahaz. i feel bad when i know i know somebody but i can't remember who. geez.

so ed took 165, chee kong caught the last train home (i think) and i waited 50min before concluding that i've missed the last bus and flagged a cab home.

phew~ tt's the summarized version of my original post. so, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

ooh! i collected my set of law of ueki yesterday! so addictive! kobasan sensei went to...kyousuke is actually...hahaha!!!!no spoilers for you!

oh ya! i talked to william juz now. i realized both of us had similar thinking towards scholars. the only difference between scholars and normal students is that they have given up their freedom. and most of them have already learnt what is being taught, so it's kind of expected that they should do quite well. and they don't have much to do other than to study at the hostels anyway. we were also wondering why many of the scholars are so dao. could it be due to their home-sickness? or do they think they are highly superior to us? or maybe it's just a side-effect of cramming too much.(oh ya i personally resent the term "mug". any other alternative is ok. it's just the word tt irritates me.)

i think i've found my resolve! my purpose...is to protect everyone important to me...my principle...is to oppose hypocrisy...my inspiration...friends and family...i have to do my best so i won't let anyone down! i will give my best to improve! yea! as long as i beat myself! there's not much point comparing with others. some may not agree with my thinking but this is me! i'll keep cramming for the sake of everyone! this is my resolve! i will persist!! (yes, it's time for more self-psyching up)

ahh...ed is amazed by his oil blotters. because his blotter turned completely transperant even at night! wow~ so oily~ he thinks it's because of his double cheeseburger and fries. he's currently on a weight gain programme. please kindly donate all lard to him. oh ya, his modem is down. so anyone who might want to click on his link on the right, can forget about it. he'll be back after promos.

i have almost recovered from my cold! woohoo~ but now got cough. *cough* hmm...i think i should try to sleep earlier when school reopens...

ok...maybe i need more sleep cuz i don't think i'm making much sense...so, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

finally started revision today! well, i stayed at home the whole day so i guess there wasn't much else that i could have done. i'm still recovering from my cold. i think it was because i went swimming on saturday combined with the polluted air due to the burning of paper offerings since it was the last day of the 7th lunar month. oh yeah, which means it's the 8th lunar month! mooncake galore! ok! i'm determined!!! i'm going to eat some ice-cream mooncake this year, no matter what! roar!

law of ueki (ueki no housoku) r0x0rs! i already placed an order for the whole set of manga which has 16 bks! nevermind that it is a bit too gashbell-ish but it's still good anyway. there's even an ueki no housoku plus after that! wahaha!!!

ooh! i managed to edit my chapter and sent it to sunita waaaaaay in advance so she can't blame me for not sending her in time. buahahahahahahahahaha.

how ar? i'm not used to studying this early leh. i know it's already late and i don't have much time for a jc exam but it's a completely big change from secondary school when can just study like a week in advance. help! i need motivation to study for the next 4 weeks until the promos are over. (ok, make that 5 weeks or so) can someone tell me something? i need reality to be slapped across my face. help~~~~~

oh ya! the stupid tj server is down. so the school web, school forum and sc web are all DOWN. it's been down since, like, friday. those lazy tech people...sigh~ today is a monday and they haven't realized?!

oh ya...i'm not going for obs anymore because ms ang says those who have gone before should give others a chance. nevermind la. i think i'll be picking up swimming again after promos. can swim everyday! hahahahahaha! feel like maybe dying my hair during november hols! probably won't be some ostentatious colour like pink or green or purple or blue. hmm...probably means my next haircut won't be very short so there's something to dye in november. hahahahaha!!

oh well, that's it for today! until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

so many things happened over the week! here we go!

new balance real run on sunday at sentosa! i didn't expect that it would be so fun! some OAC people, bryant and i ran in the junior category.(sunita was supposed to be there but she didn't turn up) it was a 5.5km run on the road, sand and trail. the road part was pretty ok even with the rather steep uphill part before reaching going down to the beach. the sand part was kinda tricky cuz it was quite soft and running hard caused my feet to sink pretty deep. so i guessed running near the shoreline was a way to deal with it cuz the sand is more compacted there even though it means to run a slightly longer distance. wah...i was totally shagged when we got to the trail...*pant* *pant* slow down...*pant* recover a bit...and
i just dashed for the last 1km! my timing of 33minutes plus isn't very good but i'm quite satisfied with it lah.

after the run we collected our goodie bags (an orange shoe bag with a white and orange jersey, water, some coupons and an energy bar inside.) and just sat around waiting for the results of the top runners and lucky draw (mainly the lucky draw. lol). the emcee was some guy with an afro wig and tried to be funny. well, some promoters for neat feet went on stage and did some funny dance. at some point in time the emcee said he was going to give the first person whose birthday was that day (28 August) a present. so we shoved kimberly up on stage and everyone there sang a birthday song for her. so lucky right? we waited and waited and......we didn't win the lucky draw :< . we went back harbourfront and had lunch before going home.

ooh...the stage...
the stage again...

some neat feat 3B cream promoters dancing away...
uh-huh. nice pose.

ok ok, i was bored.

happy birthday kim! she got a present from mr.afro wig.

yesterday, instead of having a half-day and going back to our secondary and primary schools because we had already celebrated on last friday. bummer. besides that, for our civcs and contact time period, we had some S-cube talk. it was mainly propoganda la. they talked about how important ns is, how good ns is, blah blah blah...they even got some ns guy who was a TJCian to come back and psycho us. as usual, sunita will flirt with any guy...(ok ok, only older guys. lol. jk jk)

(if you notice something missing here. just ask sunita.)

so after all that, i went to get a haircut! so many people were dyeing their hair...i almost passed out from the toxic fumes. i waited for a very loooooong time....ok la, not bad, cheap and good. after that, i went to kerrin's place to meet up with ed and kerr and qi en and some other aj councillors! i was kinda extra la but they are quite nice. somehow they got this weird suspicion that i was ed's gay partner. NO! i'm not....*sigh* i better clarify AGAIN before this spoils my reputation with girls....i want a girlfirend...anyway, we played bridge and then kerr, qi en, ed, see mun, welyon and i went to have dinner at jack's place! i ordered a fire steak!!! it's just so fun to see the steak go up in flames. we we were served garlic bread we were quite puzzled because we didn't order any. but after half a minute, we decided to eat it. hey, it's ours if it's served to us. wahhh!!!!!!! i was $23.60 poorer after the meal. luckily i didn't spend too much on my haircut. all of us accompanied see mun to guardian to get her zambuk for her insect bite then went home.

ooh...garlic bread!

the fire steak!! (of course after the flame was put out)

today's teachers' day! happy teacher's day to mrs ng(bio), mrs tan(phy), mrs lokman(chem), miss yee(maths), miss lim(GP), mr cao(chi), miss ho(pw), miss kang(civics tutor), ms norsheha(sc), mr ang(4e2-04 form teacher; chi), mr wong(4e2-04 maths), mrs lim(4e2-04 phy), miss yam(4e2-04 chem), mr yeo(4e2-04 bio), miss chan(4e2-04 ss), mrs wong(4e2-04 geog elec), mrs raj(fielding-04 eng), mrs tok(6faith-00 form teacher; maths), mrs ho(6faith-00 sci/eng) and miss chan(6faith-00 chi).

spent most of the time studying and doing tutorials at home. went to meet mum and greg for dinner. they went out earlier to watch sharkboy and lavagirl. they asked wether i wanted to go along. sorry, i'll pass. we had dinner at seoul garden with 4th aunt(my mum's sis) and our cousin brenda. wah kao. eat until pengz~~~ so full~~~ luckily we have p.e. first thing tomorrow morning.

oh yea! miss ang called me up today and told me that yin wei, sunita, zhi yong, keng foo and i are selected to go for obs! it'll be from 14 november for 5 days! i think this means i have to go get a jab again. well, small sacrifice la. it's going to be great!

ooh! ooh! D.Gray-man rox! it's so nice! and it's scanlated! means i can use the money to buy law of ueki. buahahahaha. oh, that blind guy won jue dui superstar. hmm...4 weeks or so to promos! study hard!!!k? until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

it has been a sucky week......

2005-08-28T03:52:00.000+08:00

this week has been so sucky.....depression was looming for the entire week....i think it started with staying up for pw until 2am...i've been so tired the whole week....and sunita couldn't finish her chapter for wr and we couldn't hand up our wr on monday according to the dateline despite our efforts (all 4 of us stayed up)....then i got my mole ratio wrong and screwed up my chem mock spa...then i think i got 1 of the units wrong for the physics SPA...then because i was occupied the last weekend with sc and pw, i didn't get to finish enough tutorials to last the week and i felt so guilty for the whole week...then with the problems we r having with grad nite....then yesterday's half day(ok, in the end it wasn't even a half day after all the meetings) was like totally wasted because everyone had already left by the time i was free...and the other schools didn't celebrate yesterday...we are so extra....then i failed NAPFA again....pull-ups is expected because i just started training but i failed shuttle run by 0.1sec and i was just ignored when i wanted to retake....stb fell short of 10cm aso....i'm so lousy....then promos is coming and i haven't even started......i dun even haf any time to relax....there are so many things i want to do but there's simply no time....and all my tests are so screwed up.........nobody listens.....

woo hoo~ council day rawks //MøTiVatED · DéTéRm|nED · EnéRGiZeD//

2005-08-15T03:08:00.000+08:00

yun ying...
farewell...may fate allow our paths to cross again...

ok lah, actually i took those photos some time ago but i juz put it up today. dunno why also. our beloved SCGmate yun ying has left us becuase she has managed to get some Malaysian medicine scholarship. yea, we are all happy for her. but chances are that she won't be coming back to Singapore anymore or at least in the near future. we will miss her.

current music: Wilber Pan - Jue Zhan Dou Shi

omg! today is council day and it rawked!!! the activities were ok la. we were supposed to be there at like 10am and we just hang around lor. then rachel started teaching us the council dance but then many of us (of course not including me, i was very attentive to her ok) just ignored her so i think she got kind of pissed. then she started going berserk and made us do heartsdales over and over again. phew~ i mean, we are councillors leh. how are we going to help voice the student body's opinions when we dun even listen to each other. i think it's something all of us should learn to do.

at around 12pm the activities finally started. Darren the 27th president briefed us and we were seperated into groups. we started off by playing Shi Zi Lu Kou (foodchain). it was quite ok la. our group facilitator was Lian Ya the 27th grad nite PC. we were to ta pao (takeaway) all the food items and bring it back to school. when we got back, it was finally revealed (but of course we had already anticipated this would happen) that we are going to mix the food items together and whoever finishes first wins. we didn't win but it doesn't matter la.

then we had free and easy time so shyiakira, yinwei, aishah and me went to ECP. Shyiakira borrowed maria's bike. when we got there we juz sat at the bedok jetty and talked while the sea breeze blew in our faces. later we jogged back to school. roar~

then we had dinner (pizza!) and mass dance and we interacted with the seniors!!! i mean we had seniors up to the 23rd leh! it was so fun! they are so fun and interesting and charismatic la. i'm really inspired. but unfortunately i can't remember all their names. so many la! hmm...i can remember Eric(23rd pres), Jeremy(24th recreation ic, equivalent to student lounge manager la, my direct great-great-great-grand senior!), Po Yi(27th Admin ic), KC (27th...uhh..can't really remember post. some of the seniors say tt i look resemble her boyfriend. i agree with those who think otherwise.), Linus(27th beta house cap. ozy lookalike) and Danah(27th welfare ic). still got many more but i can't remember!!! argh!!! like tt 27th teacher's day PC who's a medicine student now. omg, if only we had more time together with the seniors...i dunno why but i'm really fueled when i interact with people.

yea, super high now. M·D·E mode now. omg. i think tonight cannot sleep liao. oh ya must go try to train pull-up. i think i got energy to go run 2.4km now la. oh yea, new balance real run is only 2 weeks away. must train aso. must start studying for promos! only 6 weeks away. still got pw. and 'ao' chinese paper. then yinwei, ozy and i signed up for obs, dunno we will get or not. hahaz. how exciting the nex few weeks will be will totally depends on my own mindset, so i should just enjoy myself doing all the stuff i need to do. who says it can't be beneficial and enjoyable?

oh well, time to go for today. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

ltns! introducing my new toy!

2005-08-13T15:28:00.000+08:00

tadaa! my new toy! it's a pull-up bar! i'm going to like train up for next year's NAPFA! roar!

so many things happened today...

campus radio93.8live came to tjc today and we were down. some photos below. the guests were Mr Chiang Heng Liang(vice-pres of DBS singapore), Ms Loh Wai Kiew(CEO of sembcorp), Mr Yee Jenn Jong (CEO of ASKnlearn) and Ms Norma Sit(CEO of QB pte ltd.)

(something is wrong with the bloody script lah... why my words above the photos will disappear one? f u la blogger.com...go and fix the damned glitch!)

i repeat the top part>>

so many things happened today...

campus radio93.8live came to tjc today and we were down for it. some photos below, the guests were Mr Chiang Heng Liang(vice-pres of DBS Singapore), Ms Loh Wai Kiew(CEO of sembcorp), Mr Yee Jenn Jong(CEO of ASKnlearn) and Ms Norma Sit(CEO of QB pte ltd.)

wow...live broadcast...

at the scope. topic is "EQ in the workplace...are women superior?"

a closer shot. sorry la...i always move my hand too fast after pressing the button.

from left: Mr Tong, Mr Anthuvan, Ms Sit, Ms Loh, Mr Yee, Mr Chiang and some other guy.

uh-huh and then we went back for lessons blah blah blah. then after lunch we went to find miss Ho regarding PW and she wasn't in. then i received a call from liyana. she told me hew ting's dead. i didn't believe her. i called michelyn. it's true. our 1st 3mths class was going to her wake in the evening.

more blah blah blah action. then grad night comm went to ritz carlton millenia and looked at the venue and stuff i left early so i could reach yio chu kang mrt in time to meet them. so we went. omg...she's our age...death never seemed so apparent...but seeing her lie there...motionless...i was told she was involved in a car accident..but there is more speculation to it la. i wun say much abt tt until it's confirmed. or maybe i wun even say it either.

it does make one reflect on life...what's important to us in our lives? who? we shouldn't have any regrets....life is too unpredictable; too fragile. is life only about studies? money? girls? sex? fame? status?

actually mr chiang had a nice talk with a few of us today after the radio show ended and i think it is quite useful. he did mentioned tt he was a tjcian, got some scholarship and went to new york and etc. but i think he's quite humble for some big shot in the corporate world. he talked abt remaining optimistic, loving your family, contributing to society, doing what you like. i think these are very wise statements. somehow each aspect can be related to the others.

quite sad la...fellow foonium and ODACian...emotions kinda mixed up now la. i will probably have more photos abt certain things tt happened recently la but tt's all for today...until next time...cya~oyasumi~

aah. long time no blog.

2005-07-18T14:15:00.000+08:00

wow~ it has been quite a while since i blogged huh? a lot of things to do! busy busy busy!

JCT results are out! i managed to pass every subject la which kinda met my target. not bad la (just don't go and compare with those sick ppl in my class), kinda satisfied. now must work harder to get better results for promos! whoo hoo~

wah SC stuff is suddenly piling up! i'm in charge of programmes for the national day celebration which coming up and have to prepare the application forms for our "40 years in 40 minutes" (or we get creamed) event by tuesday. then i'm also in charge of publicity for grad night 2005, "estrella noche" so i have to start putting up posters like wednesday. tentatively our students' lounge will be towed in by end-july. whee~

PW must be the stupidest paper ever created la. it takes up waaaaaay too much time than necessary and is quite pointless la. if we can come up with so many wonderful ideas then we would have already set-up our own companies. i don't know wether it actually helps to foster teamwork though. and the datelines are crazy la.

omg...CO very cham leh. i still pretty much suck at the suona but i'm the only player lah. then chong wu like quite busy liao. how? self-learn ar? kaoz...go find teacher? got time ar? expensive leh.

actually everything would be manageable as long as every single member involved in a team does his/her part properly. some people get paranoid over certain things and then just neglect the rest of his/her other obligations. this is very irresponsible la. someone else would have to do the extra work and everyone has the amount of schoolwork la, so wouldn't it be unfair? please don't take up the duties if you cannot handle, expecially if there were other people who are willing to sacrifice their own free time. i'm not referring to any particular person but this is just something i see in some people around la.

omg! my initial theory that wolzard is the magirangers' father seems to be right! wolzard turns into magishine! magirangers is so cool! i wonder when the movie will be out. crap, i dunno how to cut the big file into 2...can't burn if i don't cut...oh well. hmm...i think travelion looks quite ugly leh...must see how they fit the train into the magic theme. somehow i think magirangers was created because of the HP craze.

oh ya, HP and the half-blood prince is out liao. william bought it yesterday. it's $40.50 la. so expensive. personally i'm not really into HP la. i've never read a single of the books. i've watched every movie so far though.

oh ya, the uniform survey results has been evaluated and we are trying to propose a new house t-shirt and change the material of the mass PE tee. this will be quite challenging because we would have to think of some way to clear stock of the current horrible t-shirts 1st.

ooh...our new mass dance song is "Dhoom Dhoom" by Tata Young. i'm sure rachel and shouvik will do a good job. very bollywood. we may have another mass dance created though.

jessica alba is the human torch! she's so damn hot! fantastic 4 was so good i watched it twice! (okok, 2nd time was a treat from william. thanks!!!) i personally prefer it over spiderman. i'm trying to download sin city! heh heh...R21 so can't watch in cinemas wad...

i wanna complain! y tjc website never show staff photo one....i want to see the new bio teacher...oops.

ooh...i went to the NYJC sc investiture on thursday. so many people i know! haha. quite happy. joshua is the president leh. and how come all presidents get crew cut one ar. president's barber ar? met VJ, RJ and MJ councillors there and had a chat with them.

the TASC fun nite was on friday. ok la. but somehow i think the target audience didn't really turn up leh. response feels lukewarm. the food was quite good. the singing by the vocalist of the rock band was quite bad. the night walk wasn't scary enough (haha, sorry to those ppl i sprayed water at.). the mass dances were wicked. yea...

well, got to go now. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

pretty fun day with little unexpected riches!

i think from now on i'll just have multiple downloads la. so much faster lo. kaoz.

today started really early at around 6.30am (ok i woke up late. supposed to meet for tennis at 6.45am). so i had my breakfast and rushed down to yio chu kang to meet bamboo, ed and clarice for tennis despite the heavy rain. not long after i reached, the rain stopped so we went to play tennis. we played for about 2 hours. i realized that ed has got pretty good ball sense. well, the 'curse' that takes place when i'm playing a sport with a 'weapon' and and having ed around took effect again. i hit clarice on her head juz before we were about to leave. so sorry~

after tennis we decided to go to the gym there. it's kinda different from the hougang one. the one at yck has older equipment and smaller space and there isn't any music at yck. so we hit the gym till around 11 or 12. can't remember. then clarice went swimming at jurong east with jes and co. bamboo went to amk to buy manga before heading home while ed and i went to orchard to meet up with xue ling, gek theng, xue liang and kum long.

then we went to have lunch at taka. after lunch, the girls headed to do a bit of shopping first and xue liang and kum long went to play pool first and ed and i went to kino to try to find momo's present. actually we saw a wonderful girl bravo graphic book but it was like double the budget we had la. so while we were delibating wether to get it or not, gek theng and xue ling came over. they were pretty against the idea la. gek theng even sugested getting a bible for momo. after walking around we decided to buy a present somewhere else. so gek theng and xue ling went over to meet up with kum long and xue liang first. ed and i continued our search.

on our way we spotted this

wow~ must be our lucky day!

oh no! the wind is blowing it away!

phew~ someone manages to stop the wind from abducting it!

(that's not my hand la) anyway we finally found the present then ed went home and i joined the rest of them. quite fun la but i need more practice.

after pool we headed down to lido and watched initial D. the movie was so-so la. i was quite disappointed when i found out that the female lead was a prostitute. i think the cars are pretty cool. okok, maybe only that Trueno AE86. the headlights look so nice~

after the movie we went over to cineleisure to have dinner. after dinner, i went to change some $1 coins to use the gashapon machines there. after inserting 3 $1 coins, we tried to turn the knob but to no avail. xue ling tried to fix it by inserting another $1 coin but it was of no use. the knob was jammed. so we furiously pressed the coin return button to similar effect till we also shook the machine then my coins started coming out again. but it didn't stop at 4 $1 coins and 1 more coin fell out. lucky~ then we still didn't give up and put in 3 $1 coins again. but the knob still wouldn't budge so we shook the machine and the knob finally turned (i think one of the capsules got jammed). not only did 1 capsule fall out but 2 $1 coins fell out. it was quite funny la. i shan't specify which machine it was la if not we will see people at cineleisure shaking the machine in hope that coins would fall out. hahaz.

after that, we walked to city hall and took a bus home. i didn't expect to have a habit of walking also. so fun!

wah so tired~~ that's all for today. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

phew~ fixed it!

i realized that since i would burn 3 episodes at a time before i watched i might as well download all three at the same time. hahaz.

today was just mostly technical stuff. thanks to the help of chee kong i managed to fix the banner problem so now u can see the new banner! wahaha!

nyaa~ just seen the latest post at haro singapore and realized that sausage, the webmaster of haro singapore, could be one of the guys in the photos below taking photos of the tanks! i'm so honoured to be able to meet him if it's him. oh ya, if u haven't noticed from my last post, i'm trying to put in photos when i have any interesting ones. all inspired by haro singapore.

alright, maybe it would be appropriate now for me to address the "change" i was talking about in one of the previous posts. ok, some of you might already know but i think majority still don't know yet. i'm going over to play the suona. to be exact, the gao suo. yupz, means i'm leaving my beloved dizi. why? because i really felt sad for tjco when i realized that we won't have any suona after the j2's left. well, i won't be expecting the more experienced players to jump right? i decided that it was a call to play a part to do something for tjco. this means i'll be the only suona player in tjco for now. stress~~ well, i'm learning from chong wu now. he's a really great teacher. dizi seniors, please don't misunderstand ok? i believe leaving will make the bonds between the dizi players and me even stronger than before (okok, i'll be only moving back 1 row). i'll do my best!

hmm...i'm afraid no photos for today. sundays are usually times when i will reflect. that's why sunday discussions. ooh, so why don't we have a...

-------------------------------------------------------------------

SUNDAY DISCUSSION

today's topic: sports and outdoor activities i like!

Tennis: yupz don't you think it's a really fun sport? hmm...i think it's kinda expensive to book courts. i'm planning on trying to sneak into nyjc so i can play for free. buahaha.

Jogging: i don't run very fast so i like to jog occasionally to test myself. however i usually go for endurance, not speed, so no obvious effects on my 2.4km timing yet.

Urban Hiking: it's only fun when with friends. you can just talk cock and walk around from place to place. it's really fun to know your friends and places in singapore better at the same time.

Trekking/Hiking: of course i don't mind the version closer to nature.

Badminton: i know it's not good to play both tennis and badminton but i just can't resist sports that involve "weapons". haven't played in a while though.

Gymming: just started going la. it's actually quite fun. tentatively our staple activity for FXX club.

Swimming: it's pretty good exercise that involves many parts of the body. and the best part is getting a good tan. i'm quite slow though.

Kayaking/Canoeing: i love this! i wanna go for 1-star course! anyone else intersted?

that's all e sports i'm interested in. nopez. no basketball, no soccer.

wahaha! the jct is finally over! i'm going to enjoy myself this long weekend (extended to tuesday for tjcians! woo hoo!) before life returns to its hectic pace!

right after bio yesterday, i went out with yinwei, yan ling and kimberly! we went to the army market to try to find suitable ponchos to replace the ones they lost during the camp. after that, we walked around looking at the t-shirts there and i managed to buy one!

after that they went back to tj for the talk by the female atronaut while i went home. after a while, i went to meet ed at serangoon mrt station. we took the mrt to harbourfront and changed to bus 100 to queensway shopping centre. we walked a bit and realized that there was nothing suitable. so we went to jurong point. we managed to find ed's polar bottle there! so finally got his birthday present. hahaz. then we had mosburger for dinner before we went over to yishun. we spent the night at momo's place watching anime and talking cock for most of the night.

this morning 3 of us went to ang mo kio to meet up with bamboo. brothers4 has been reunited! it has been so long since the 4 of us has gone out together in full strength. hahaz. so we took 133 to lavender and walked down to bugis. from bugis we walked to the anime house at sunshine plaza. on the way we passed by the korean supermarket and bought drinks.

from the anime house, we walked to shaw tower for lunch but realized that there was nothing much to eat there so we continued walking to suntec city. guess what? on the way to suntec, we saw some army vehicles proceeding to the padang for ndp rehearsal!

wow~ tanks across the road!

so many people crowding at the overhead bridge!

more tanks!

some other guys taking photos of the tanks! aiyah! my finger was in front of the lens! i need more practice~~

then we went to have lunch at kfc. wah...that place was so crowded la. then the guy didn't help us clear the table so in the end momo helped us clear. after lunch we went to citylink mall and went to 37 degrees. the bags there were all to small so we went over to adidas. adidas wasn't very nice la and very exp. it's one of those stores that didn't have any discount during this great singapore sale period la. we walked into hmv and had a look, couldn't find anything so we hopped over to flash n splash. they are having 15% discount storewide for today and tomorrow! omg! it must be fate! so i managed to get a rip curl bag for my belated birthday present! thanks guys!

next, we went to esplanade to chill because momo got tired from all the walking.we went to the really windy rooftop area and just lazed around for a while.

ooh...the spikes of the "durian" looks pretty kewl up close!

when we were done, we took mrt to chinatown where we visited the rest of the anime shops. i wanted to get something from one of the gashapon machines but the thing got stuck and the coin return button didn't work either. so, in the end i got my refund from the guy at the store and used another machine. well, bamboo managed to find the vcd's he was looking for at hyper media in chinatown point. they also had the kamen rider blade vcd's i was looking for. will be going down to get it with bamboo once he has his cash.

phew~ that was a long day! so tired now...lack of sleep...oh yea, we saw this really interesting sign on a door in the mrt station.

ok...so are we being warned or not?

well, that's all for today. until next time, oyasumi~ cya~

phew~ taking a short breaking from cramming. woo hoo~ opportunity presents itself to meet her more regularly! yea~ love you God~ things seem more feasible now!

oh ya, i finally upgraded my bittorrent to version 4.1.2. beta which now shows the percentage downloaded to 1 decimal place! (okok, i admit i'm studying physics now) and it allows me to queue my torrent downloads so i can just leave my com on and the next episode will start downloading once the previous one finishes!

i've found this really good blog in the tjc forums
http://harosingapore.blogspot.com
it's really inspiring! made me a little more interested in photography. wahaha!

anyway, i'm quite determined to train my pull-ups now. i've decided to try the jump and pull method once the jct's are over.

["mahou henshin! maaji maji majiiro!"] and she bestowed them with magic so that they can go fight the baddies while she stored her power to battle a great evil force that she has detected. the graphics not bad la. maybe can have a sunday discussion after jct.

hmm...that's not e main point of today's post...e main pt is...[-BLEEP-](note: this portion has been edited for safety reasons)how...what should i do? aiyo...why suddenly so many distractions when it's getting so close to jct? i'm so confused....i think better concentrate on jct for now...but i think need to act soon if i wanna do anything....[-BLEEP-](again)...sigh~

i think i'll keep mum about "the change" till after JCT ba. heh heh..keeping all those who don't know in suspense.

well, wish me luck in my revision and jct. until next time, cya~

1st full day of mugging during hols...die la...must catch up quick...

2005-06-08T14:40:00.000+08:00

wahh....i've been so preoccupied during the hols that today is my first full day of mugging! better catch up quick or else die liao. well, at least i managed to cover 1 chapter from both chem and physics. it's e easier chapters la. time to follow my mugging schedule of at least 1 chapter a day by hook or by crook(clarification: 1 chapter is only for days when i have full day of activities.)....if not no time to do tys liao....only 20 days to JCT! i'm trying to postpone any postponable activities and avoid having any activities on weekdays....i must put my heart into it...next term onwards, i'm going to be on equal footing as the 1st-intake people liao. being 2nd-intake means nothing.

well, this probably means frequency of blogging should be reduced over this mugging period. well, wonderful co will be giving us break till after jct. i will still try to practice a bit during breaks from mugging everyday. the thing i'm kinda worried about is sc lor. always got some random thing that suddenly pops up and screws up my plans for the day...must mug more intensely and do things more efficiently. no time for play liao. my only entertainment is despo housewives lo.

last night i had my true reflections on the co camp when i had a conversation wiith bo han. i really learnt many things from the camp...now i'm even more sure of what kind of role i want to take in life....i have a clear direction now. everything i do will be because i want to...aiyah...i don't want to say la. i think it will sound silly.

hmm...probably going to listen to a few songs before i try to push for maybe some maths revision. well, until next time, which i don't know will be when, cya~ oyasumi~

after 2nd gm!!!

2005-06-07T15:32:00.000+08:00

yupz! feeling much better today! i have faith in my co ppl la. hmm...can't divulge much about the gm bcuz it's supposed to be confidential.

one of the project comms that i'm in would be national day! we r proposing a super big event that is going to involve the public and we r even trying to get media coverage! i'm in charge of programmes so i'm getting hold of as many ppl as i can! of course i approached co. lolz. well, hope things turn out well.

well, time to go do my stuff. so until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

back from co camp...

2005-06-06T15:14:00.000+08:00

yea..the camp was fun...some bonding...more friends in co...but the thing that really ruined it for me was the exco elections...everyone in dizi and practically everyone in chui da yue are all in the exco...except me...i know it's for my own good...it's not about the post...it's about i'm afraid i might drift away from them since they will get to bond much closer with each other considering the time they will spend together other than during the short hours of co practices tt i only have during which we can't even talk much...i'm super bad mood now...depressed and vexed.....sometimes i even think that i will let co take priorities over my other activities....that's how passionate i am abt co....but like luuan chin said, i'm in sc bcuz many ppl in tj voted for me so i can't let them down...yuan xu told me that i'm thinking too much bcuz i'm juz predicting and predicting......and that i didn't show my true capabilities....ed aslo told me that things might not turn out that way...and that we(dizi section) might be even closer since we will treasure the time we have together even more! i hope he's right....yea...dizi section...

the stupid gm tml isn't helping either...i'll have to forgo the k-box session that we already planned ages ago...sorry liting and the others....and the exco juz sends an sms a few days in advance and, viola!, we will have a gm in the lt in full school u....really testing my patience....hiss~

well, that's all for today.....i really hope things turn out for the better....until nex time, cya~ oyasumi~ friends, remember how impt all of u are to me k? friends mean the world to me.....

happy birthday ed!

2005-06-03T14:45:00.000+08:00

tjco concert: song sheng zhu yun 2005!

2005-05-29T18:22:00.000+08:00

wah~ today was great! ok, i woke at around 8.40am and i prepared to go to school.

my dad fetched me to school and i reached there at around 10.30am in my white long-sleeved shirt (sleeve folded up), black pants and leather shoes. then the dizi section practiced at the 2nd floor because the alumni was using the co room and there was temasek academy open house. so we practiced till around 12 i think when xu guang told eveyone to pack up. we moved all the percussion instruments and stringed instruments onto the truck. then all of us got onto the bus and we went off to singapore conference hall.

by the time we got there, ichun had already reached liao (she had an appointment with the doctor this morning.). so we put our stuff into a room and then they had rehearsal while people who were not involved in the pieces yet did our own things. so ichun and i hid at the stairs and practiced our pieces. we practiced until their break when we were found by the rest of the dizi people. then yuan xu asked ichun and me to buy some bread for those who are hungry. so we walked quite a bit and bought some bread and hum jin peng. so we brought back and then everything was ravaged by those pipa girls. i didn't know girls could have such big appetites. lolz. it's ok la, then we went in for the rehearsal for the encore pieces.

after that we had dinner. after dinner, ichun and i went to man the ticketing booth with the help of jiayi and meihui. wah...it was total chaos! there were dunno how many people and so many money transactions! oh! my mum and my bro came! ed and qi en came a while later! well, at least we got the right amount of money. total amount received was $1602 i think. wah, never handle so much cash before. talked to my supporters during the interval before going backstage.

after some more waiting, it was finally our turn to perform! we managed to pull the 2 encore pieces off! ureshi~after that, we packed up and went back to tj. dunno y like even though there's more things to move as compared to band, the workload seems to be much lighter and done more efficiently. i think it's the attitude ba. even the girls did their best to move as much as they can.

after everything, some of us went to mac for supper with some alumni. we met the some of the other people there. we talked cock again. hahaz. i guess it's just part of co life. then we took cab home. wah first time seeing many of the alumni people.

thanks people like ed and qi en who showed their support! thanks zirui for the flower! thanks the sc ushers for the choc! thanks to all my dizi seniors (ok la, practically everyone else in dizi) for giving me guidance and putting ichun and me into the concert even though we've only touched the dizi for around 3 weeks. thanks everyone!

hahahaz. now everyone in dizi has got at least a nickname!
felicia: felix; felix-jie~
luuan chin: xiao chin-jie~
yuan xu: ah xu ge~; yuan yuan
xu guang: ah guang ge~; bunny
ichun: zhen si mei; junjun; hao du gui(avid gambler); xi jun(germs)
yan siang: yogi bear (yogi)
cray: fishy
me: polar bear (polar)

so kewl~ oh, some other co members aso got nicknames!
sze lang: se lang(pervert)
cong wu: cong(3) wu(4) (pet); yuan yuan yuan
rui long: ah long
yonglin: urchin; pooh bear; urchin the pooh (pooh)
abelyn: bao ya sao

huh...today is probably the last time performing with the year 2's...so sad...everything seems so fast...

oh! i found my xing huan(uhh..new love)! it's called ba(1) wu(3). it looks like a dizi but it plays like a harmonica with key holes and the fingering is similar to a picolo's i think. i think it's in the dizi family. if we r going to play any song that has a part for ba wu i will fight for it! haha. it's quite easy to play la.

i'm sure there's going to be more excitement in co. well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

practicing hard~

2005-05-28T16:49:00.000+08:00

so many things happened this week! ichun and i are actually performing the 2 encore pieces for the tjco concert! it's so amazing la! we've only been learning for less than a month leh. i really thank e dizi seniors for helping us and pushing us for the concert. so i have to practice now! so exciting!

oh ya, we went for some kind of outing with some of the co people last night! yuan xu, xu guang, cong wu, ichun, luuan chin and i went to tampine mall to watch the amytiville horror. i personally felt that it was damn scary la. maybe it was because of the atmosphere ba. ichun was like covering her eyes. and i was hugging the di dai. lolz. too bad wang liang and some others went to watch kingdom of heaven.

just now, zi xian, cray and i went to tm again for dinner. then zi xian went to buy her shoes for tomorrow. u know how girls can shop la. so while she picked and tried on her shoes, cray and i talked quite a bit la. wah..both of them stay in exec apartment one leh...so rich...and cray looked so different when he was in sec 3!(he showed me his student pass) so scary...

oh! oh! i realized that i'm the youngest dizi player now leh! year 2's no need to say la but ichun was born in 1986(she's from taiwan), cray's birthday is in march, yan siang's birthday was last week then my birthday is 31 may...so cannot bully me ar. hahaz.

wednesday after school, yesterday and today was the sports carnival at tjc. it's quite fun la. there wasn't any lessons on thursday and friday. the 29th sc decided to run the 2.8km together la. so we stayed overnight in school before we ran early in the morning. they showed some movie la but it was kinda boring la so i went to co room with rui long and practiced a bit before sleeping on the sofa in the cozy corner. so shiok, still got air-con somemore. the rest had to sleep at the sports complex and fed mosquitoes and suffered in the rain la. so we ran the 2.8km run at about 6.40am or so.

i signed up for soft tennis so i played yesterday. my team put me as men's singles la i aso dunno y. all e opposing teams put very strong players in singles and not so good ones in doubles la. an accident happened and i kinda injured my elbow. minor injury la, no worries. kekeke.

i just went to the co room right after assembly today. we played mahjong. hahaz. i just realized like almost everyone played ming xing san que yi before. lolz. then after that i went to practice dizi until around 11am then i went to sports com and bought some food. then i went to the sports apparel stall. everything was so cheap la. actually i wanted to buy shoe bag one, but out of stock liao. then i went back down when i saw the poster for the salomon shoes. they were selling each pair at $49 only! i went up to have another look and found a design that i liked and i tried for size and bought it. so happy. usual price $100+ la. then i went back to co room and tried to help out with the booklets and then we went for lunch. during lunch we talked cock and talked dirty la. haha, co is so crazy!

oh, we had our sc investiture on wednesday also. ok la, not bad. dunno y they never invite aj. but the official handover of the sc room in mid-june. anyway, the student's lounge is not here yet so basically i've got nothing to do for now.

hmm...i went to orchard with ed on tuesday after school to buy my attire for tomorrow's performance. $48 for long sleeved shirt and black pants leh...i know it's kinda cheap liao but...*sob*

aiyo, so late liao i'm afraid i will disturb other ppl leh. see how la, i'll give my best tomorrow! until, next time, cya~ oyasumi~

rhapsody 2!

2005-05-23T17:23:00.000+08:00

nyaa~ can't find heartsdales!!! the ajco and band concert not bad la. hahaz, i didn't know that wang sheng was also the conductor for ajco. the 2 pieces that ajco and band played together were quite interesting.

oh ya, now i'm trying to sell tix for the ajco concert nex sat. do tell me if u r interested. dizi section r0x0rs! there's just some kind of wierd bond amongst us. hahaz.

wah...a bit sad leh...the seniors are going to leave us soon and like the 4-5 of us will have to xiang yi wei ming...it's like we barely had any time with the seniors...

ooh...i bought ah jiao yesterday and tried to replace the di mo. i'll bring it tomorrow to show them and get them to see wether i've done it right.

omg...no time to study for maths...how? how? how? hmm...

dunno y like nothing much to say today. in that case....let's have a....

-------------------------------------------------------------------

SUNDAY DISCUSSION:

things i've learnt about chinese orchestra so far!

the instruments:

qui da (wind and percussion)--->

dizi(chinese flute) - my instrument! it's crafted from bamboo, usually segments that are binded together although it is possible to find some that are crafted from a single long piece of bamboo. one side will be plugged so the air will only come out from the other end. key holes are made in the bamboo. there's a hole that has to be covered by a piece of membrane,di mo(flute membrane), which is called the mo kong(membrane hole). the di mo gives the dizi it's bright sound with its vibrations. the di mo is stuck onto the di kong using ah jiao, a type of chinese medicine. each dizi can play around 3 octaves. they are basically categorized into 3 sub groups, bang di, qu di and xin di. bang di are the small ones and usually have more melody than the rest but generally the dizis play the melody together la. qu di are the bigger ones. xin di are just dizi that don't use membranes but just cover the holes with tape or something, then they will sound like the western flute.

suona: it's a double reed intrument which i find to be quite similar to a clarinet or an oboe. well, there's the gao yin suo (high-range) and zhong yin suo(middle-range). we dun have a di yin suo(low-range) in tjco but i think should have right(wait or izzit got di yin but dun haf zhong yin...hmm...)...traditionally the gao yin suo is used for weddings while the others usually for funerals. good players can make the suona sound like a saxophone la. it's quite loud.

sheng: it's actually quite similar to that keyboard instrument that u have to blow into a mouthpiece that leads to a tube. ok la, instead of plastic, the sheng is the wood and metal version but it looks more like an organ. it's also bigger la. there are several types of sheng and other than the di yin sheng, u have to blow into a metal mouth piece and press round keys on the keyboard. for the di yin sheng, u have to carry the whole intrument so it's kinda more like some brass instrument la since it's all metal. it's like the tenor wind instrument la.

percussion: kinda similar to the percussion in band except they have some special drums like the pai gu and also the thingy with lots of metal plates. co percussion doesn't include a drum set although we have the cymbals.

xuan yue (bowed instruments)--->

erhu/zhong hu/gao hu: yupz yupz, i didn't know there was a difference either. non-co players usually just categorize all into erhu but actually there are diffrent ones with different keys. they all have the same basic structure of a body that is made of wood, 2 strings, the sound box that's covered with some kind of skin and a bow that is made of wood and horse hair. i think it's kinda similar to the violin or cello. also gets the melody at times.

cello: uhh...u know la...i also dunno y it's in co

double bass: same...but i think it's because there are no chinese intruments that can give the bass effect that's why we need the double bass

tan bo yue (plucking instruments)--->

gu zheng: well, i've seen this in zhonghua. it's the big wooden thing that has got loads of strings across it. fake nails are usually worn while playing.

yang qin: a bit similar to guzheng but it's not as broad. sticks are used to hit the strings instead of plucking them.

pipa: looks a bit like a guitar but it's more curvy. usually played with a tab.

liu qin: looks like a smaller version of the pipa to me. hahaz.

zhong ruan/da ruan/ xiao ruan: resembles a banjo in appearance. yupz they come in different sizes and pitch too.

there are other less commonly played intruments such as the xiao (chinese vertical flute), the wind instrument that is made of clay and has many holes and the other one made from a hulu (some wierd shaped fruit).

the scores:

well the scores are usually in numbers like 1= doh, 2 = re ,etc. the notes are easier to read than the normal score that we use for band. but it's hard to get the rhythm just by looking at the score because there are no quavers or crotchets. intead, we have to get the rhythm just from a line or a dot after the note.

the music:

quite different from band music la. dunno how to explain also.

the people (tjco):

yea, they r nice lah but inter-section bonding still needs some work. i mean we get along ok la but not really close. intra-section bonding rocks! i love my section! dizi rocks! years ones! ichun! yan siang! cray! year twos! luuan chin! xu guang! yuan xu! felicia!
hahaz, i don't wanna get into details yet la. i'll leave that to after the camp.

the pro-ness:
we have all kinds of pros lah. our year 2 concert master is the national champion erhu player. vera from erhu is in dunno wad PAYCO. then cray is in omniarts. semi-pro organisations leh...can make money...dunno still got who lah but confirm still got a lot of other wo hu chang long (crouching tiger hidden dragon) that i don't know about yet lor.

the stress (on me):
haha. everyone so li hai lor...i feel so n00b and useless. even ichun is better than me lor. she has got flute background and some natural talent. then still got studies and sc. dunno wether i should rejoin taekwondo...i want but i'm afraid i won't have the time or can't manage...but i'll do my best in whatever i do lah. well, at least i have friends in tj now. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

well, that's all for this week. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

the bet!

2005-05-21T15:57:00.000+08:00

currently practicing: uhh...that encore piece lah...dunno how to say the name in english....

alright! must practice until i can play that song! i will win the bet!

anyway, today was great! we went down to support badminton after school! yupz, our badminton teams both advanced into the finals. there was one very pro guy damn funny la. everytime he gets a point he will "yea!". i think it's to taunt the opponent la. after the matches ended, ozy, suni, ah foo and i took mrt back to tj because we knew by the time we reached toa payoh, the bball match would've already ended. anyway, we won the bball finals! it's the first time in 20 years! wow~

we got back and collected our blazers. then i went for co! so fun! ichun told me that she could play a song already i was quite shocked. then my ego kicked in and i said i could also learn to play a song. so we bet wether i could learn the song by tomorrow.

so i started practicing. i borrowed some dizis from xu guang and i'm practicing real hard now wish me luck. oh ya, i dun haf ah jiao so i used paper and tape to seal the di kong first.

well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

sunday discussion: manga and anime i like!

2005-05-16T05:21:00.000+08:00

kuru~ i know i should be doing my tutorials now but i just can't resist writing a sunday discussion today!

anyway, today was pretty ok. since there wasn't church last week because of the don't know what meeting and i had council camp the week before, it's like my first time in church for weeks. ooh...uncle russ is taking over for the next term...hmm...

well, i've decided that i should be special in my own right la. i'm not that totally lousy and plain and boring. not everybody can have the same achievements so i want to shine with a different kind of light. i want to influence and show my abilities in my own way. i'll just try my best.

ok la, the above paragraph is actually written because i want to coax myself out of feeling inferior and depressed. hahaz. i don't know how i can feel so optimistic and energized but yet have a sense of depression tugging at me at the same time. i think i'm going to be my first test subject wether i'll be doing psychiatry or psychology. lolz. oh ya, for those who don't know, my ambition is to either become a psychiatrist or a clinical psychologist. i know it's quite different but i just don't know why i have this undying interest for both. anyway, that's why i have to work hard! psychiatry means doing medicine first and psychology seems to be a pretty popular course too.

oh ya, after some thought, i think like tjcians tend to have something big that had happened to them in the past or had some great difficulty leh...some are more serious than others la but somehow...hmm...maybe it's because at this stage of our lives, something must have bound to happen to us? or is it exclusive to tjcians?

yay yay yay! so happy! friends! motivation! persistence! woo hoo! i think i'm high on endorphins! whee! must be those cappuccino flavoured kit kats! must stock up liao! wahaha!

anyway, let's move on to the more important....

-------------------------------------------------------------------

SUNDAY DISCUSSION: manga and anime i like!

this was inspired when i realized quite a lot of the people i know in tj like manga and anime too! so i'm going to talk about those i like!

Naruto: i download the manga every week! i haven't watched the anime but i heard from many that it's very good. it's about a young ninja called Naruto and his adventures with his friends. very hard to explain in detailed la. oh ya, Naruto has kyuubi (nine-tails fox) sealed in him. this is both a bad thing and a good thing la.

Satan 666: there's no anime yet so i just read the manga. this is by the twin brother of the mangaka(artist) of naruto so their styles are quite similar. it's about this boy called Jio and he's actually satan but he doesn't know it. then there are o-parts which are actually weapons which have elemental powers. yup, yup, more fighting.

bleach: reading the manga and watched some of the anime. i think the art rocks. it's about ichigo who happens to become a shinigami not really by his choice. then there are evil spirits called hollows. yupz. u get the idea.(i know my sypnoses sucks la. u have to read or watch it yourself to see why it's they are so interesting.)

tsubasa - reservior chronicles: it's a CLAMP production. some kind of crossover with many characters from previous CLAMP series but all with different roles. as in the names and appearance may be the same but they are not related to the original series in any way. well, except for the xxx-holic ppl la. some evil guy tried to steal princess sakura for her power to cross dimensions but siaoran manages to stop e guy but sakura's memories were scattered through out diffrent dimensions in the form of feathers. now siaoran must cross dimensions with the aid of mokona and retrieve sakura's memories.

one piece: the manga is too long la. i might read it next time la but now i just watch the anime on kids central haha. yes, it's about luffy, the pirate in a straw hat with rubber powers and the crew. they are on a journey to find some great treasure.

rozen maiden: finished watching the whole series liao. very nice! about some dolls that have roza mystica which allows them to be like humans and how they influence the sheltered life of sakurada jun.

shaman king: the series developed quite nicely one. but the ending of both the anime and manga just kinda sucked.

gundam seed destiny: the sequel to the popular gundam seed series and possibly the last anime in the gundam series. well, seed was meant to be the last but it's popularity was overwhelming. i think the plot of GSD just gets a little retarded after a while. and most of the gundams are just like copied from seed.

prince of tennis: it's nice la but gets a little monotonous after a while. and there should be more girls tennis in it.

fullmetal alchemist: the manga is so nice! about edward and alphonse elric and their (screwed-up) lives as alchemists.

death note: about light (it's e guys name) who finds a deathnote and starts killing criminals with it. the polic are after him now.

konjiki no gashbell: about gashbell, one of the hundred modoko sent to earth to duke it out to become the king of the modoko world and his human partner.(can't remember the japanese name)

well....i'm pretty sure there's more but that's all i can think of right now.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

ooh...ed smsed me saying he's back from his council camp and it's quite tough but fun. but it's only 1.5 days and 1 night...i don't think it can beat our camp. hahaha.

well, until next time, cya~

sunshine after the rain!

2005-05-15T15:03:00.000+08:00

quote of the day (or rather yesterday) - "Just give your best!" - Mrs Ng (ok la, she was referring to SPA but somehow it inspired me.)

wahaha!!! i'm feeling so much better today! i still had a headache after i woke up but i began to feel better once i was in school!

okok. my interview for co comm was scheduled today. so i reached tj at around 10.15am. so i went to the co room and found that they were waaaaaaaaay past behind schedule. they were prepared to interview like 3 or 4 people in half an hour but they ended up taking 20-60 min per person. so like a group of us were queueing outside. it was like co interaction session la. i realized that intersection bonding wasn't very good la but everyone was like asking around who the other person was and etc. i got to know a few more co members today. we really talked a lot today and got to know each other much better. for instance i managed to know the other year one dizi player, yan siang. ok! i guess i know my whole section liao. i think there's still another china guy but i haven't seen him around. hmm...somehow i think i feel a bit stressed when cray is around. dunno why but i keep thinking he's better than me in so many ways. ooh....i promise never to drink soya milk or eat soy products again. hmm...i din know the guy suona player is ah long's(rui long la) cousin.

after a looooooong wait(without lunch. just a packet of sugarcane juice. oh. i owe cray $1.), it was finally my turn!(my interview was scheduled at 10.30 but i think it was nearly 3pm liao.) hmm...somehow i think my interview was like quite fast lah. oh ya! thank you guys so much for even letting me run! lolz. (1) i'm like a super new member la (2) i don't even have prior co background (3) i'm in sc and some other pdp's didn't even let sc elects run! thank you so much for giving me the experience! i know my chances are not high la, but what matters is the experience. ooh...seems like some of them also like to read manga and watch anime! actually, i was feeling quite good after the interview.

after that i went to help in banner painting. well we got all messy and barefooted and stuff and i think we did a pretty decent job considering our limited manpower at any point of time and also the time constraint. i'm still quite surprised that we could make a banner from scratch in one day. it took like ages to make a banner for band last time la. we were crapping while we did the banner lah and vidhi also crapped with us while she did the ics banner. it was quite enjoyable la.

winnie and i left a bit earlier and i took the mrt to bugis. i got a haircut at the QB house tokyo-singapore there and i love it! it must be my best haircut in like months! so value for money! $10 for a great haircut! whoohoo! then i met up with my mum&bro and we had dinner at mosburger and we walked around for a while then the shops started to close.

wow! today was great! other than sinking slightly into depression while waiting, i think it is terrific! somehow i think co is the source of all my enthusiasm, optimism, determination and energy in tj from now on lah. the people are great! the atmosphere is wonderful!(hey the co room is air-conditioned, sound-proofed, and even has a cozy corner complete with a sofa set!) and i feel closer to co members than my scg or cg! i'm so glad i joined co...*tears of joy*

oh. maria said he was going to get a bag exactly like mine today. i guess i'll just have to find ways to decorate my bag so it looks different for easy identification.

lalala, i'm going to happily practice my dizi now. then tomorrow i'll happily do my wonderful tutorials and preparation for chem SPA and mass dance test, which both fall on monday.

well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

ouch...migraine...

2005-05-14T15:07:00.000+08:00

kuru~ today is probably my best school day at tj yet! first, we had our first 1/2 scg lunch! second, there was CO! yes, to first times in one day!!

well, sunita talked to mke yesterday and said maybe i shouldn't have judged people too quickly, like BASD. i'm still not sure. but we had our first 1/2 scg lunch today despite the light drizzle! and i think i'm finally getting closer to the guys in scg 18/05! hmm...slowly things reveal themselves to show that scg 18/05 may not be that hopeless afterall.

ooh!!!!!! today was my first time at co!! it r0x0rs!! the dizi is so fun!! i think i'm catching on quite comfortably. i'm learning how to blow so i can get the sound with more ease and also the fingering. i was practicing(or at least tried) the fingering of shi mian mai fu while they played it. oh ya, thanks are ichun! if u hadn't sms'ed me i might have to wait till dunno when then can play! the dizi people are quite friendly la. seniors include felicia(sat beside me today), yuan qu(sat beside felicia. vice chairman), guang xu(chairman) and ruan qing(she's the section leader. hmm...maybe need to talk more to her and guang xu since haven't really had the chance to talk to them today.). other year ones include ichun (the other n00b! her presence makes me feel not too out of place. but she got western flute background leh.), cray a.k.a. hock soon (fellow OIster! hmm..dunno y always never reply my sms one.), yan deng a.k.a lantern (another OIster! in percussion for now. but will come back next year if...) and that other guy whom i totally dunno and haven't talked to yet. somehow i feel more comfortable when during co leh. maybe because there's no politics.

wah, thursday physics lecture test. better go study now. omg still got that physics self-test 1! well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi

official brothers4 arcade game of the year 2005: taiko no tatsujin

oh yea! taiko no tatsujin is so fun! and i think it will actually build arm strength! and the taikos are so cute!

ok, i woke today at around 11.30am and i had brunch and read some papers till around 1pm when i went out. ed and i went to bras basah to find fabric markers. we spent like 2 hours before finally finding one and it cost like $1.70.

then we took the mrt and went to toa payoh and did the tee and file and our physics tutorials. there was some event at the amphitheatre outside the library and it was damn noisy la. got some idiot guys who tried to rap/sing with some rock music that they didn't play and it was pretty awful. then the shameless st. andrews jc co (they are one of the 2 that actually got bronze this yr) performed. we left at around 7pm. i bought smucker's blueberry jam at ntuc.

we took the mrt down to orchard and i bought a cheesecake from miki ojisan no mise. it's my mum's mother's day prezzie! add the blueberry jam and u get blueberry cheesecake! lolz. then we went to cineleisure and ate subway. wah...very stressful one leh, first they will ask what sandwich then what bread then wether u want half(6 inch) or whole bread(1 foot) then veggie. i had a meal consisting of a italian BMT with hearty italian bread, all veg except pickles and mayo and mustard, lay's and coke.it's so confusing and stressful. i think the premade ones at tj are more comfortable to eat.

then we walked to ps. the action city is so cool! they've got these really cool kakashi tees and sasuke tees! must go buy sometime soon! oh ya! they also got the stuffed toys of the taikos from taiko no tasujin!! sugoi kawaii!!! then we went to play taiko no tatsujin at zone x. there was this guy who played para para paradise with a fan. and ddrmax looks so fun also!

anyway, we went home after that. today is pretty relaxed and not much emotions were stirred up.

well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

take a breather!

2005-05-07T16:11:00.000+08:00

wah....this week was crazy...2 tests and sc exco elections and not having done my tutorials during the weekend made it even worse. ok la, today aso got hc intro and husting which is pretty pointless since raimi is confirm delta house cap already.

well, things are getting better la, i can feel it. i think i found my first group of close friends in tj! my sc clique!!!(still in progress of expanding) the seniors rock! we just hit off so well and we have so many things in common! things with some of the fellow elects also going quite good. next week going for CO liao!!! hope can make close friends there also!

i also think i'm on the right track of catching up in terms of academic liao! so happy!!!

sigh~ but whenever i think about scg 18/05 then i have mixed emotions. 1) i feel sad....y so hopeless.... 2) i feel anger...that stupid HOD of maths...how the hell she put this scg together one? and she let all e fun people assigned to 18 transfer to other scg la.

seriously i think no hope liao la. all the cliques are like covalent molecules. very strong covalent intramolecular forces of attraction. but very weak intermolecular van der waals forces of attraction. they are bonded within their cliques but cliques do not mix well at all.

i'm seriously considering doing what shi han is doing now, 'grafting' into another scg during lectures. i'll just go join the other scg during lectures and just turn up for tutorials and prac. for a normal class, people might see me as anti-social or having an attitude problem. but for the very special 18/05, nobody minds/cares, as evident from the response they give shi han. i think i'm going to need to find an scg that is the exact opposite of 18/05 la. i seriously think i'm in the wrong place and very demoralized. i hope that if i do this, i'll feel more encouraged and passionate by having their class spirit. i'll consider carfully.

hmm...dunno y a lot of people say i'm very funny or very cute. oh dear...am i projecting the right image?

oh ya, i've decided i'm sick of the place that i got my haircut and i'm going to try somewhere else.

lu yuan (the ccc anual production)was great la! the plays may not totally clear but they were interesting. it was kinda fun to see how the girl next to me reacted when she saw her boyfriend getting cake smashed into his face time and time again on stage. i personally felt it was too short.

well, until next time. cya~ oyasumi~ (oh ya, sorry ar cui yin for mispelling ur name. lolz)

back from camp...

2005-05-03T01:27:00.000+08:00

i'm back!!! ok, actually i was back yesterday but i slept at 7pm and haven woken till like 8am. wah..going to leave for bedok soon for gpp. i hate pw!!! it's so pointless!!!!!! we spend so much effort to get e whole group to meet and then they want individual work like pi and evaluation. what crap.

ooh...the camp was crazy!!! we had to do push-ups, run, and everything else lah. u know e torture camp type of stuff...the thing is, i wanted to compare it with slc but after the camp, i realised that they are too dfferent to be compared. it is true that we got a lot closer and tougher after council camp but the bonding is not the same type that we got through slc. on the other hand, we really pushed ourselves and have seen each other's strengths and weaknesses but slc was honestly a bit slack la.

the seniors were really friendly and nice!!! i thought usually seniors would be really dao or wad one la but they really changed my perspective. well, both camps have been life-changing for me but in different ways i guess. well, i'm sure i know my elects better and i've definitely become closer to them. but i don't think there was enough inter-group interaction la.

no time to talk too much. maybe i'll blog again tonight. until next time, cya~

i'm in! thank you for your support!

2005-04-27T15:12:00.000+08:00

yea!!! i'm in!!! now i'm officially a tjc 29th student council elect!!! thank you so much for all your support!!! domo arigato minna-san!! i don't think i'll be running for delta house cap because it's confirmed to be raimi liao la. no competition. i aso dun think i want exco aso because i still want my co. hahaz. see i'm so loyal even though i haven't even practiced with them yet la. i think i want to be welfare ic. i like to care for others. LOLz. oh ya, sorry for all 13 nominees who didn't get in. i personally felt that some of you deserved more to be in rather than some people who got in just because there were favourable conditions for them. ooh...all 6 deltans got in. 6 alpha warriors, 9 betanites and 12 gammanians. wah, we are now under public eye. stress ar.

hmm...i think scg 18/05 might still have some hope la. yesterday we finally decided to have a scg outing to pulau ubin. and after the mock chem SPA yesterday, everyone helped the slower ones to keep their apparatus. but, today, some people say that they rather watch a movie la...but watch movie how to interact? still need more evidence to prove to me that scg is not that hopeless la.

oh shit. my PI got rejected la. miss ho say don't do topics related to emotions, because no solid product can be produced. must find another topic asap.

wow! i didn't know so many people read my blog la! like yesterday i told cui ying "hey! i confirm plus gurantee plus chop not joining band liao leh." then she replied "ya, i know, i read your blog." then today ed told me the girls in his class know that i'm ostracized in tj. then i asked him what made them thought so, then he said that they read my blog. i'm like so touched la. thanks for your support. but i want to clarify 1 thing. even though i may sound despo for friends ar, i'm not ostracized la. i've got friends but just don't have that kind of close friends yet. ya, i think i'm becoming closer with certain people and if the progress continues, they may be the one(s). thank you so much for your concern! perhaps you might want to show yourselves at the kbox thing next monday. hahaz.

oh ya, i've got council camp from friday to sunday. i've to rush back to tj after the prize-giving ceremony. that reminds me. i think the seniors in our group, group 4, are really fun and friendly la. i also like the fellow elects in group 4 la. don't have any irritating people. i'm quite sure that it will be lots of fun! but can it beat the slc? stay tuned to find out.

well, it's only tuesday night. so, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

sunday discussion: my WONDERFUL scg 18/05

2005-04-25T15:25:00.000+08:00

current ringtone: jolin tsai - ye man you xi

well, today i woke up at around 10, had breakfast and went to church. after that i came back and started doing tutorials. okok, i was using the com and doing tutorials at the same time. after that, i showered, went out for dinner, came back, did my reflections for this period being a sc nominee and taa-daa!! here i am.

i finally got to have a good chat with cray when he came online. yes! now i've got a website that i find out more about dizi!!!! (that yan deng always busy one. and tjco ppl dun seem to visit the tjc forums often.) apparently his broadband would only be up next week. when i asked why he looked troubled he said he's born with that kind of face which i think is quite a funny answer lah. then i pointed out that he looked happier during the slc, he said that he didn't have to worry about tutorials or anything during the camp, which is quite true. through more talking i realized that we have some similar points la, like normally only sticking to a small group of friends which he described as "autism". but also got differences, like his scg being very fun and maybe a little too crazy at times and that now i'm forced to widen my social circle which makes me uncomfortable. well, we'll see each other in school and co, which is kewl.

now, let's get to the main part of today's post:

-----------------------------------------------------------------

SUNDAY DISCUSSION:

yupz. my scg totally rocks. as in it's rock bottom on a scale of 1 to 10. why? let me elaborate.

my scg has been dubbed "the scholar class" because like half of the people are foreign scholars. there are also non-scholar foreigners. and amongst the singaporeans, there is quite a few non-chinese. i'm not being racist or anything but it's inevitable that there will be some segregation.

worse still, there are so many cliques in the class and being a 2nd-intake doesn't help either. and there are only 7 guys. 3 of whom are 1st-intakers, 3 other 2nd-intakers who are all in soccer and me left to be in my clique consisting of 3 other members who are all girls. then there is the "YSS" clique and all the scholars can be catagorized as one clique(this one coincides with the 3 1st0-intake guys clique) and the "non-chinese singaporeans" clique and of course the infamous "bimbotic anti-social duo" or BASD for short(who are the only non-chinese singaporeans to be excluded from that clique).

i mean, we still get along la, except maybe for BASD, but we just don't glue well and you can't feel any bond at all lah. i mean, even my pw group also lah. even though we are cool with everything, we don't really feel bonded yet lah. at least we plan to have pw group outings to bond. any attempts to organise scg outings (including one to pulau ubin which surprisingly was suggested by ryanti) has been turned down by BASD. they say things like "for what? what are you going to do at pulau ubin?" i guess they are just too busy with their own lives.

BASD also like to ask many stupid questions during tutorials la. reminds me of someone...hmm....

anyway there's also our chinese banding. since we have very few people taking chinese, we are grouped with another scg. they are mostly quite ok la but equally not bonding well la, except BASDver.CL"AO". they are 2 girls from the other scg la. but instead of asking many stupid questions, they heck care the teacher la and they r so dao and think that they are very chio or something. which they are not. trust me. could someone pass them a mirror? oh wait, it's just a waste of glass once they try to look at their reflection.

so, seriously, i've given up like almost all my hope on finding close friends in my scg liao. maybe can still try to make the majority of us feel something la, but that's e best i can do. now i'm pinning all my hopes on sc (if i get in) and CO, which i had already mentioned before.

well, that's it for this week's sunday discussion. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

Gift Of Hope

2005-04-24T17:50:00.000+08:00

i know it's wierd but i really have to blog now. i juz talked to ed and we made each other realized many things. even though things don't seem smooth-sailing now, we can always hope for a better tomorrow. i decided not to sit back and try to do anything about my hopeless scg anymore. i'm going out to find friends outside my scg much more seriously. i'm sure there are others like me in desperate need of a close friend. it is now my task to bestow upon them this wonderful gift of hope that i now have. ed says that i gave him hope last time but i don't know what i did. anyway, i'm going to do my best and everything would be fine. yea. :)

ooh...haircut...

current music: jungiery stars - ai de qi ji (jungiery OST best collection)

i woke up at around 10.30am today and managed to watch pokémon!!! well, i had apple juice and a piece of some chocolate snack for breakfast. then i watched gransazers. i want the opening theme!!! where can i get huh? and after that i watched sonicx. ok la, i've seen the 1st few eps before liao, so no kick.

after that i turned on my com and started downloading tsubasa chronicles and played mp3 while i started with my tutorials. yea i think i'm on the right track just need a bit more umph. well, i had some fusili for lunch and it was meagre on the whole. after that i went back to my music and tutorials. until around 5pm i decided to get a haircut.

so i went to the usual place at toa payoh and they gave me a similar haircut. i think i'm going to try somewhere else next time to get something different.then i went to tenchi and bought my bleach 26. then i went over to cd hut and bought ai de qi ji. yay! den my way to the bus stop i bought a fried squid thingy from old chang kee. nice!

so i came home, showered, had dinner and went back to doing tutorials until i got kinda tired and here i am, blogging!!

anyway...i'm still kinda depressed la, despite the things i did to cheer myself up. council elections still going on...when can i start learning my dizi...when can i find my close friend in tj...still feeling so empty....well...at least did some tutorials....less guilt...how?

until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

doushite....

current music: 5566 - yong bu fang qi (won't give up)

nyaa~ we are almost reaching the end of the race for "miss council". haha...still remember the skit...things will never be the same after tuesday...

mrs kitty tan told me that a councillor should set a good example. it's not that i didn't want to do my tutorial lah. i seriously didn't have the time...anyway, my weekend will be dedicated to "pia"-ing all my tutorials. it's the only time when i actually can sit down properly and do my work lah. then still must get my haircut...if not, sekali that mr tong catch me den die liao.

yay...can join CO for practice soon...1 more week...oh ya, the new t-shirt still has a dragon but the tee is white this time...hmm...bai long pai? doesn't sound as cool. lolz.

i still haven found a super close friend in tj yet...i'm feeling kinda hollow....when will the person appear? i know usually takes a few months for such a thing to happen but i really can't wait anymore...oh ya, sin yee also feels very sad about this....she agrees that our class is very disunited and it's because like half of the people are scholars. then there are foreigners and even amongst the locals there are only a few chinese. then there are all the cliques. it's really bothering me...tt's why i really need a close friend...even if the person is not in my class....

we did our first and last and only nominee duty at the meet-the-parents for the year 2's. quite sad la....

so, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

voting begins! vote for me!...please?

2005-04-22T15:24:00.000+08:00

my code is Delta F!!!!

Yes! voting starts today!!! vote now before the voting closes on sunday 6pm! your every vote matters!!! since this is my blog, i can promote myself. vote for me!!!! i'm a 2nd-intaker leh....i will do my best. i don't usually speak much in front of the crowd but i simply cannot stand injustice and will take a strong stand when that happens.

anyway, today was the mass dance test!! it was ok la. and the SPP interview!!! they were looking for confidence and i don't think i stood out (they interviewed 4 at a time). all that raimi's fault la. so intimidating. oh ya, raimi is like confirm our future delta house cap liao la. he's damn pro lor. smart and athletic and charismatic. geez.

we also took down our posters today. i really hope i've done enough for campaigning. oh ya, some of the nominees ar, so lazy leh, know how to put up, don't know how to take down. then those of us taking down posters just helped them to avoid being scolded by the councillors lah.

!!!!i joined chinese orchestra on tuesday!!! they've got syf practice now so i'll join in the practices the beginning of next month when it's over. yay!!! dizi!!!! i'm not going to be persuaded to play the suo na lah. oh ya, i saw rui long at the canteen during lunch today and asked her wether she knew the other new dizi player (she knows how to play the western flute so she still has some advantage) and just so happens that she was right next to her!! her name is ichun and seems pretty enthusiastic about practicing together since we are like the only 2 players who are n00bs amongst the 6 year 1 dizi players. she also knows cray so we decided to ask cray for help. so, i caught up with cray after physics lecture and asked for his number and told him the "good news" and he said he wun be free till syf. hmm...dunno y he seems quite sad most of the time...must ask him next time...oh, so i asked shiok and wendy (shi han) for help because shiok was in CO in her secondary school and wendy knows a bit about playing the dizi. some people think that i've made a wrong move since i won't be joining competitions and may not get a chance to play for concerts but my motive is just to learn dizi because it was always my dream to play a woodwind instrument....ahh....reminds me of my sec1 days when i was forced to play the trombone....for 4 yrs...and i got b4 for cca....sad...but i really appreciate the support shown by some about me joining CO. thanks!! ooh...now i can get e cool collar pin and t-shirt!

oh ya, reasons why i'm not joining band is because of the horrible people, or rather, person. tt stupid year 2 who thinks he's very good, or shuai or tall or something. he's sooooooooooooooo sarcastic. he's like, "i don't think the problem is with the instrument..." uhh...just say what you have in mind lah. don't be so niang and beat around the bush! and i really don't have the passion for band anymore la. strangely, i've learned to appreciate and love CO!!! hahahahahahaha. too bad, your loss. :P

i still don't have the oisters contact list...i want...help...

oh shit, it's only thursday. time to slp. until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

mass dance prac...

2005-04-16T16:05:00.000+08:00

current music: F.I.R. - Wu Xian (album)

yeap, we practiced our mass dance today. i went down all the way to opposite tjc and we practiced. like only 17 of us turned up lor. and i couldn't do my tutorials and my PI 1st draft (due on tuesday!). no choice la, must pia tomorrow lor. should be able to make it ba. maths, bio, chem, phy, gp and pw....

haha. zhi yong wore super short shorts today and some of the girls said his legs looked sexy because they were hairless. then some of them argued that wether being hairless or not looked good depended on what kind of shorts the guy is wearing. must take note. lolz.

i asked around today about the wushu/co thing and most of the feedback pointed towards wushu. yea i think it's good lah. it's more 'man' in some sense. and since there are fewer members, we would probably become very close which is what i would want. i also want to build up physically in order to fufill one of my resolutions of being able to do my pull-ups. anyway, i'll finalize my decision after consulting all my friends in co now and i should probably talk to some people in wushu too.

i finished with the scg 18/05 contact list. i want the contact list of oisters leh...i miss them so much...i wonder if they feel the same....or izzit i too despo for close frenz and zhi zuo duo qing? ooh...ai de li liang by FIR is quite nice!

i think i've done what i can for campaigning liao lor. if i do anything more, i'll just become irritating. just hope everything goes well. hustings this wednesday. voting on thurday or friday i think. i'm afraid that if i don't get into sc, i'll let my supporters (regardless of number) down.

well, until next time, cya~ oyasumi~

wow...it has already been a week?!

2005-04-15T14:58:00.000+08:00

omg!!!! i haven't been online in a whole week?! wow...i didn't realize i was so busy. now i really appreciate my weekends more. let me give a summary of what has happened.

-------------------------------------------------------------

STUDENT LEADERSHIP CAMP (SLC): yea, it lasted from last friday to sunday and it was way too short! i totally enjoyed myself!!! it's the best camp ever!!! it's like the moment our group met, we all knew there was chemistry between all of us and we were going to have a whole lot of fun together! okok, i have to admit i was pretty glad that i already knew some of the people in the group like clarice, sean& char! our group, group 2, is named O.I. (original idiots)!! and we are oisters (4eva)!!!

we did all kinds of things together like our neverending rounds of icebreakers like terrorist and the "!slap!, *silence*, ouch, sorry, number" game. our forfeits are so outrageous and daring! and the thing is, no one chickened out! we also had an amazing race and station games and rafting and trust fall and our skit during the campfire night!

campfire night was great. OI did a sports thingy and we had soccer, cricket, chess, wushu, black sheep white sheep, football and cheerleading. it was truly spectacular. i was in the wushu thing with becky. i'm suppossed to be a wushu champ so i did some really lame moves and becky just literally bursts out of the box and attacked me. other groups' skits included "ah beng and ah lian", "cgay" (yes, catholic jc), "meow +moooink" amongst others. rafting was damn fun! i was in the 1st team and after travelling a few metres, the raft came apart. no worries, we got back ashore and fixed it. in the end it didn't really matter who won and everyone cheered for trigo who was last. yea, the great thing about the camp is that we (at least OI) didn't care about winning and that having fun was more important.

kudos to sean for the great job being our sports commentator for the skit and being the backbone of the team. clarice thanks for coming to camp with me. char, watch out for your back, hope u'll recover asap! thanks yan deng for being ever so lame. cray you're a true gentleman, respect *thump* *thump*. sunita thanks for finally realizing i'm in your scg. preeya, keep doing the bimbo cheeer! becks, u very pro leh, ballet, wushu, cheerleading everything aso can. nick, dun attract the attention of all girls around leh, i aso need some leh. di hui, dun worry, u r still part of us. ain, thanks for keeping sean in check. grace, make sure u dun lose ur great and warm personality! carolyn, yea, you did good! ai jia, cheer up la, i know u wanted a tougher camp. chongyi, thanks for being so compliant. ziyu, dun steal my place in council!!!!! LOLz. anu, just shut up.

yea, after camp i really missed everyone. we have to go on with our lives. we'll still greet each other very passionately when we meet but of course it wasn't like during the camp. i hope that the oister spirit will live on...*sob*

----------------------------------------------------------------

CAMPAIGNING: yup, campaigning started this week. i did the posters only on monday night. i upgraded and printed out on tues. i zapped on wed and handed in for vetting. the posters were finally up on friday. they're everywhere, including above the tapz point. hahaha.

there's mass dance practice everyday. so i have to go home late everyday, giving me minimal time to do tutorials so i just did as much as i could and i'm determined to finish up properly during the weekends.

we had introduction on wednesday. i wore a cardboard signboard that said "vote for me! please?" in front and "deltaF" behind. the response i got wasn't too good but i guess it was partly attributed to raimi, who was right before me, who did too well by rapping.

my interview was on thurday and i totally screwed up by not knocking on the door, saying that i was lame and accidently said "join council" instead of "running for council".

anyways, thanks for everyone who has helped me so far! i really appreciate that!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

PDP DILLEMMA: yup, i haven't signed up for any pdp and i know i have to asap. taekwondo is full (damn that stupig guy with a faulty pencil the other day...). i just tried going back to band today and remembered how much i hated it. i guess CO would be rather similar. so i've decided i want to join a sports cca. wushu? squash? hockey? sailing? climbing? still getting a headache. help!

------------------------------------------------------------------

DEPRESSED: yea...i'm pretty depressed because i don't think i have any super close friends in tj...i feel so lonely...and most, if not all, my closer friends in tj are girls...i need guy friends...i thought i could bank on my oisters but they are already comfortable with their own lives....i'm so sad...even the endorphins in chocolate aren't working on me....why....

------------------------------------------------------------------

well, that's the summarized version of the past week. until when i have time, cya.... oyasumi~

and off to camp i go!!

2005-04-08T12:42:00.000+08:00

ooh...i'm going for the student leadership camp tomorrow!! won't be back till sunday. i haven't packed yet so maybe i should go pack soon. they say "small backpack" is compulsory but i seriously don't have space for another backpack. school ends at 12pm but we have to turn up in school by 1.15pm which means i would mean that i have to bring all my school stuff to camp?! crap. i hope can tumpang someone who's not going.

yea! i'm running for sc!! woo hoo~ my code is deltaF. i'm a 2nd-intaker so please vote for me. argh. campaigning starts next week and my weekend is eaten up by the camp. must think of strategies during the camp. hmm...i'm still wondering if the TASC is related to the sc at all...

well, until sunday, cya~ oyasumi~

sunday....i'm back!!

2005-04-04T08:17:00.000+08:00

yay! my com is fixed. ok i just recovered the hard disk. i think it was some error in the registry. i'm going to busy busy busy so i think you should only expect posts during the weekends. i've signed up for sc but the briefing is the wednesday i think. signed up for psychology elective but there will be screening. there's also screening for the scholarship prepretory program. clarice and i managed to get into the leadership training camp at sentosa next week!! woohoo!! i think i'm joining taekwondo but the year 2 black belts look so pro... i've bought a new bag for school. yay!

hmm...wierd people in tj are still manifesting themselves...more self-proclaimed gays....and guys like that karate blue belt guy who went to try out tkd and when i said "wow...you look so-(i was about to say pro)" he cut me off with a "-good, right?". i tell you i was about to vomit my guts out. so shameless...

campaigning will start soon...hmm...wonder if my strategies will work...i'm open to any suggestions.

i'm a bit deprived of new gba roms and chinese music...can anyone tell me if they know any good sites? i want to hear twins...fir..jj (even if his new songs sucks)...oh yea, i also want the gransazers opening theme [life goes on]! kinda nice. i aso want simple plan! i don't know why but i suddenly feel like listening to them. haha

time to go! until next time, cya~

hmm....a little disappointed...

2005-03-30T13:21:00.000+08:00

hmm...going to keep e post short. woke up extra early today to take photos and edited them and printed out into passport size...but didn't get to sign up because pek sia went home...then i got feldman to second me....and no one was at the counter...after the maths test...all the forms were kept liao...guess i have to wait till tomorrow and my efforts were wasted....

lectures at tj not bad la...still at an acceptable pace. had some talks and lectures today...sigh~ i think i'll only be exempted from partial fractions make-up lectures...hope something good will happen soon...until tomorow, cya... oyasumi~

RENAISSANCE II: day 3...and it all begins...

2005-03-29T14:02:00.000+08:00

current download: [KAA] Gatekeepres21 ep1-6

this is crazy...too few seeds...it's taking forever to download....

anyway...i woke up the usual time of about 5:40am and freshened up and had breakfast, which consisted of some earl grey tea with tangerine and scones which i've bought at st.leaven's yesterday. set off at around 6:18am and reached the 135 bus stop at 6:25am. 135 came shortly at 6:27am. i reached paya lebar mrt at around 6:54am. i reached bedok at 7:03am. and managed to reach school at like 7:16am. i think i'll stick to bus 100.

we had wet games today! i'll just spare the details....so wet and dirty....oh ya, the sc did a really silly presentation to get people to sign up for sc in the next 3 days. hahaz, i'm signing up anways. found my 2 seconders, clarice and pek sia!! yea!! w00t!

after the wet games i was really exhausted. i washed up and bought my uniform. i bought 2 size 34 pants, 2 L shirts, 1 XL polo (last piece. getting another one tomorrow), 1 XL pe tee, 1 size 40 pe shorts (found that it's too small. exchanging for bigger size tomorrow.) and the tie! i'll have to take photos of myself tomorrow morning and edit into passport size and print out onto photo paper tomorrow before i leave for school. must wake up earlier. 5am? of course i'll change in polo before i leave.

after changing we went for mass dance. dance till we die. learnt 3 new dances today.... my clean and dry zhss pe tee also became soaked. bought my chem notes and got my dad to fetch me. haha. too lazy to take the bus and mrt with the big bag of clothes and notes and in my wet pe tee. oh yea, ed's ex-classmate siman recognized me and talked to me at zap! .(the photocopy shop) don't know what this means.

came home and found out that i'm in SCG 18/05!! it's triple science!! yay!! wonder who's in the same scg as me. anyone i know? hmm...

well, that's all for today. time for desperate housewives. until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~

saturday...wah...i'm broke...hahahaha...

2005-03-27T15:55:00.000+08:00

current latest purchase: 1/144 HG Gaia Gundam ($26.90)
current dillemma: slippers? sandals? low-end? middle-range? high-end?

wow..i think i ate alot today...

i woke up at arnd 11am and brushed my teeth and had breakfast. breakfast consisted of half a hokkaido dome from breadtalk and some milk. after that i watched the gransazers and gundam seed.

after that, i changed and got ready to leave. that's when i realized that my shorts (including my new pair from billabong) cannot go with my shoes.(the new adidas one. i think they are cross-trainers. u don't seriously expect me to wear casual walking shoes to school and bring along my cross-trainers do you?) so, i decided i needed new sandals asap. of course i realized that slippers would also be fine but let's not discuss that because i wouldn't be in a dillemma if i could decide.

so i had some of the rice balls my mum made, grabbed some vitagen and left for amk. it was raining so i ran a little late and ed and momo started to dao me. right. i don't appreciate it at all. so we went to bishan and bought tickets to the eye 10 which i thought was stupid but since they wanted to watch. (see, i'm still nice even though they pissed me off) we walked around till it was time. ooh, we shared 2 packs of calbee corn snacks and i had a bottle of apple flavoured h-two-o during the movie. yes, we snuck it in. the h-two-o tasted horrible.

yea, as i expected, it was pretty crappy. it was the kind of thriller which just worked on the shock factor with a little humour which made it kinda messed it up.

after that we went to city hall and went to the espalnade to find qi en and chee kong. they were going to do "it" at the esplanade until 6pm or so. ("it" refers to some class thing but only ended up with only 2 of them...) we just left them to do whatver they wanted and momo went for a haircut.

we went to suntec and we walked....most of the gashapon machines were removed so it was kinda disappointing...but i found the gaia gundam model kit at the hobby shop there for only $26.90! who could resist? my shopping tip for model kits is to buy at hobby shops because it would be a few good bucks cheaper than department stores or comic shops.

after that, i was left with like around $5 excluding my emergency money.(orientation and the pair of shorts really drained a lot out of me. well, soon i won't even have time to think about shopping and begin to stockpile again.) so we had dinner at millenia walk. the food junction was kinda pathetic. i had minced pork noodles and a bowl of cheng teng. i splashed some kecthup on my white polo tee so i felt a little embarresed and sad.

so we went home after that but not before ed told momo about the other day and we started talking about personal stuff again.

so when i got home, i showered and sat down in front of the tv and watched while eating. let's see, i finished the bag of chips in the fridge.(great. i just realized that i made the same stupid mistake as ed by throwing the bag away...i need 2 to get a free personal pan pizza...) i had like 3 kit-kats, some of the artic roll and finished the final quarter of the hokkaido dome with another glass of milk. perhaps it's because i'm subconciously feeling upset that i'm running low on cash...or that i have to look for sandals or slippers again...or that i could have possibly stained my polo tee....but who knows?

well, that's it for today and until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~

good friday...ooh...new cd ripper...

2005-03-26T16:16:00.000+08:00

current reccomended program: fairstars cd ripper

*yawnz* i woke up at 2.15pm today...skipped breakfast and had mini shepard pies for lunch. not bad for my mum's first attempt.

the afternoon just went by online and trying to remove the stupid bionicles game that my brother had installed....(still haven't found a way to uninstall)

went out in the evening to compass point for dinner with mum and greg. had kfc for dinner. walked around and i realized that my sandals were spoilt and i needed a new pair. walked, walked, walked....bought breadtalk for breakfast. bought a prima deli waffle for my brother. bought ice blended soya milk with grass jelly from mr.bean. went home.

since my easy cd ripper had some kind of problem, i started to look for an alternative. i tried around 5 crappy demo rippers until i found the fairstars one. it's freeware with no adware and has the basic features. good stuff.

yea..kind of a boring day...until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~

RENAISSANCE II: day 2.....omg...T'Gay'C

2005-03-25T15:01:00.000+08:00

yea, they are nice and all but TJC people are sick!(well, mostly anyways) it's not as if we don't already have more than enough of sissies('maria' is a good example. yes, they also have maria at tjc) and guys labelling themselves 'gay'(dunno real or just for the fun of it la. people like weldon and meng kai. they are supposed to be a couple.). the girls are also sick lor. i think all the girls got some obsession with some gay fantasy or something...sigh~ continue reading to find out more...

today started off quite normally. i woke up late at around 5:50am and i managed to leave at 6+ and took bus 100 to aljunied and took the mrt to bedok and i walked to tjc. it took roughly 50min so it's a better route than taking bus only la. when i got there, clarice and e others weren't there yet, so i joined some of my ogmates. they were playing bridge and seriously it's the first time i've seen it. looks pretty easy though, just the bidding part a bit confusing. they were kinda willing to let me play and learn next time.

so we went to the hall for some time stallers. after they've stalled time, 2 student councillors came to promote the student council election. nomination starts next tuesday and each nomination requires a passport sized photo taken in college uniform with the tie and also the signature of 2 people who second you. hmmm....oh yea, one of the 2 councillors who came was like totally sissy.

we had briefing shortly after and off to the amazing race we went. we moved in cg's instead of an og.[civic's group is the group you are assigned to for civic's lesson and for orientation and house activities. an orientation group for this prientation is made up of 2 cg's in the same house. subject combination group is the group in which you will attend all lessons.] well, most of the 1st-intakers in the cg had an "amazing disapearance" and ponned. our ogl, sean, and i were the only guys left....we need more tetesterone here...help...ai jia was assigned to be our cg's facilitator.

our first station(we were assigned first stations) was at tanah merah. we got off the mrt and took a really long time walking around and asking around before we finally reached the jalan limau mannis playground which was right smack in the middle of some semi-detached houses. after completing our task, we went to expo. we walked from hall6 all the way to hall 1 and back to do our stupid tasks. uh-huh....then we went to the airport and did our task of sharing an eggtart. but, no, it doesn't stop there. ai jia finally shows her true self...she promised to give us 200 bonus points if i passed the remaining half of the eggtart to sean, mouth to mouth....yea, so we tried for the sake of the team and he knocked into my teeth...ouch. so we set off for eunos. on the train, ai jia asked if i knew weijie, so after being given sufficient clues (she pronounced his name wrongly man. don't blame me.), i finally realized who she was talking about, i told her he was my classmate. it turns out that ai jia is weijie's cousin!!!! OMG!!! talk about a small world...so at eunos, we tried to offer up to 5 passers-by a piece of tissue each. because of the singaporean mentality we took some time to get it done. we decided to have lunch at the nearby coffeeshop. i was telling sean about the singaporean mentality and that he might not understand because he's not singaporean and i got jabbed by ai jia. ouch. did i sound insensitive? i dunno leh. i think sean is a pretty cool guy and can take it one la.

after lunch, we went to city hall and did our tasks at city link and also the esplanade. after that, we headed back to bedok and finished our tasks and went back to tj. time to try to get bonus points agin...crap. this time from rachel tang. so we were supposed to do the "i like big butts and i can't deny" thing and sean and i were supposed to slap each other's a**....another example of tj's girls' fetish with forcing perfectly normal guys into doing 'unusual' things. the funny thing is, rachel tang is supposedly sean's girlfriend...tjc is a place where even your girlfriend can betray you...sigh~

after the race ended, we learnt e rest of the "let's get retarded" mass dance. so we dance under the hot sun again...great. after that, we tried to dance the s club mass dance and i have totally forgotten some parts. haha. the mass dances are killers i tell you. the couple dance which we haven't learnt still looks quite normal.

after we were dismissed, i went to bedok central and bought almond pate and black sesame paste and the nice uncle gave me a cup of lime juice for free. yay! unfortunately i just drank a mug of sugar cane juice. hahaz.

oh i've decided to buy my uniform on monday. i'm going to buy 2 pants, 2 shirts, 2 polo tees, 1 p.e. shorts, 1 p.e. t-shirt and 1 tie. tjc must be the only jc in singapore where you can wear the school polo tee instead of the shirt everyday other than wednesday when everyone must wear the full uniform with the tie. oh yea, we also have to wear the shirt during exams.

hmm...i think i'm going to nominate myself(sounds wierd but that's what we are supposed to do) for the sc election. now i need to find 2 persons to second me and to get that photo asap as nomination closes on next thursday. i know it must be wierd for a 2nd-intaker to want to run for council but i'm going to try anyway. it's going to be my last chace. heck care even if there are no points la.

well, that's all for today. until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~

The first day...wow...

2005-03-24T14:34:00.000+08:00

current music: BoA Best of Soul

whee~ it's yet another orientation! i woke up at 5.15am today and prepared for school and had breakfast and set off at around 5:53am for tjc. i walked to central and reached at around 6:02am and waited for bus 100 which set off at 6:08am. i took the bus all the way to the bus stop right before mountbatten road at 6:27am. i walked over the the other busstop and waited for bus 12 which arrived at around 6:38am. i took the bus all the way to tjc and i reached at around 7:02am. the stupid journey took around an hour. i'm not going to take this route again.

i met up with clarice, ninja and miao^2 at the canteen. after a while, i had the urge to defeacate and excused myself. when i got the the toilet, i realized that they didn't provide toilet paper and there wasn't any pedestal toilets. great. thank God i brought tissue. after i was done, we went off to the auditorium.

i checked the list and found out that i was in OG16. so i went in and joined the group. i was given a piece of masking tape with my name on in and i put it on. great job char(one of the ogl's. i think her actual name is charlene), your ink hadn't dried yet and my hand was covered in pink ink. i sat around and didn't talk to anybody until after a while i decided to talk the shirley who was sitting next to me. oh yea, the og's are in such a way that 2 CG's (civics groups) are put together and 2nd intakers are thrown in to fill empty places (cgmates who are no longer in tjc). luckily for us, there are quite a number of 2nd-intakers so we don't really feel out of place. ooh, guess what, feldman is in my OG again. haha, what a coincidence. we have been ogmates for both jc orientations.

anyway, we did what any orientation would have. cheering, ice breakers, games, bribing the ic's for extra points,etc....

ooh we even pillared another of our ogl's, sean, and even laid down on the hot tracks spelling "16 (heart shape) Thanh(one of the ic's)" just for some stupid points. yay. oh ya, all the ic's and ogl's are j1's so it does feel wierd without having any j2's in charge AT ALL.

the tjc mass dances are far more difficult than the nyjc ones. the leg movements are crazy especially with the friction from the tracks. oh yea, we learnt the dances in the hot sun. w00t~ but they look nice la.

ok, some people i would mention for these 3 days at least.
char: ogl
raimi: ogl + clan leader (btw, i'm in Terranus. it's latin for earth)
sean: ogl. scholar from malaysia.
feldman: uhh...person i know best in the OG. lolz
kai dick: migrated from hk during pri school. i think we can get along pretty ok.
it's not that i won't mention other og members but i don't really know them yet.

well, that's all for today. so until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~

Epilogue and Prologue: part 2

2005-03-23T15:28:00.000+08:00

so....the cut-off for ajc and tjc are both partial 7....and the cut-off for njc is partial 5(phew~)...

ed is very depressed today because of the posting results...he has appealed to tjc together with mankey. since they are at the cut-off, they stand a great chance of getting into tjc. so, i will get to see them again on monday because friday is good friday.

for tomorrow, i'll still be wearing zhss uniform. i'll have to bring p.e. attire and $13. i'll be meeting clarice outside tjc at 7am.

sooooo exciting...can't wait for the beginning of my (real) jc life. until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~

Epilogue and Prologue: part 1

2005-03-23T11:46:00.000+08:00

Hallelujah!!!!!!thank God!!!!! i've got temasek jc!!! woo hoo!!! can say it's some sort of a miracle because i had put tjc as my 2nd choice as you all know!!!

apparently ny cut-off has dropped because even 11 points with bonus can't make it in!!! bad news for quite a lot of people i know who want to stay in nanyang.

by the way, today is the epilogue of the PAE and the prologue of my whole jc life at tjc!!!

well, i'll update once i get more info about the jae posting. cya later~

latest update: apparently tjc cut-off for this is has also dropped to 6 points after bonus. yes. that means ed didn't get in!!! he got posted to ajc...but he's appealing!! really really really hope that the appeal would be successful...[7:54AM]

Final Day...farewell NY....

2005-03-22T16:10:00.000+08:00

current download: rozen maiden episodes 7-12

i don't think i'll ever return to NYJC...the final time i'll be wearing the merlion head(which is of course a lion's head)...

i went to school as usual today and they announced that we wouldn't need to go to school tomorrow so that we can check our posting results.(this is not the case for every jc for example those at ajc still have to go to school tomorrow and are supposed to check their results within the first period.) after assembly, we went to the hall and they screened supersize me. it's kinda scary and i'll give deeper consideration before eating fastfood. after the movie was over, i met wif some of the zhss guys and we ponned together.

yes, that was how my last day at ny was prematurely ended. i thank everyone in 05S7B and our teachers for being there for this first term and all the fun we had no matter how much or little. OG23 for having fun during the orientation and at our one and only OG outing. dragon boat/canoeing for the 1 week(3 trainings) which i attended. ODAC for the amazing experiences including the perilous night cycling trip. and finally the tennis club for not wanting me so i can have more fun at the other cca's.

anyway, after that, we went to mac for breakfast(they obviously wasn't paying attention to supersize me) and then went to weijie's place for smackdown 3 and dai dee.

after that, i went to zhss and met up with hui shan and we played monopoly with wei yu and qiaoru. after monopoly, we helped mr yeo with marking some of his papers.

what a crappy ending to the PAE huh....well, the posting results will be up tomorrow. i really hope things will go smoothly. if you don't know what i'm talking about, you can visit ed's blog and read his post for today.

well, until tomorrow. cya~ oyasumi~

time left till results: 7hrs 50min

sunday...as promised...

2005-03-21T07:42:00.000+08:00

current dillemma: gundam? slippers? cd? manga? mag?

well, i was really tired yesterday...i woke up at about 10+ and watched pokemon and gransazers and gundam seed before setting off for orchard. i think i reached orchard rather promptly and i got stalked by another one of those people getting $5 donations to help ex-prisoners. i don't have anything against them but it's a little annoying to get stalked at every mrt station. especially when they do the 'brother' thing.

anyway, ed tried to save me by giving me a call and i managed to escape. so we set off in search of my shorts when momo called ed to say that he wasn't coming anymore. so we walked.....and then we went to kino. we just hung around the manga section and after some effort, i managed to find a chinese version of the rozen maiden manga. hmm...didn't some bitchy shop attendant say there wasn't such a thing on monday? i'm going back to tp tenchi and ask for it again. i'm going to show that bitch who's boss...!roar!

anyway we went to heeren and couldn't find ones that i wanted and so we went to cathay and bought itckets to the spongebob movie. we then went back to takashimaya and met up with my mum and bro. then they just stayed around the toy dept whereas ed and i continued the search. i finally managed to buy a pair of billabong board shorts at isetan! yes!!!! my brother bought a braintwist for his early birthday present.

after that we went for the movie. it was actually quite lame and very much standard for anything spongebob. ed went home after the movie while i had dinner with mum and greg at mosburger ebfore we went home.

well, as promised....here's this week's

SUNDAY DISCUSSION

hmm...what i think of the various jc's...let's do it alphabetically...(do bear in mind this is totally my opinion and i may or may not be a reliable source)

Anderson JC: well, i had originally wanted to come here and even put it down as my first choice for pae. the main attractions were the idea of joining tennis, it's distance not being too close nor too far from my place and also the famous aj ice (basically a really cheap super sized ice kacang). however i wasn't posted there and looking back now i'm quite glad i wasn't. the reasons for why i'm no longer as interested are (1) they have bad character: the teachers actually laughed at those who tried to appeal in. if the teachers have such sucky character, how much better would the students they nurture turn out to be? (2) they actually accepted people who had no common sense at all but didn't accept me for pae: one of the classes in charge of decorating the fountain for chinese new year actually folded ang pao goldfish and threw them into the fountain. genius right? (3) some of the people i don't like are(were?) there: let's not mention names shall we? many zhonghuarians. said to have made it to the top 5 for last year's a level's after being at no. 6 for waaaaay too long. but who knows(cares)?

holiday...ooh...suntan...

2005-03-15T16:57:00.000+08:00

activity for the day: swimming/playing at jurong east swimming complex

wow~ today ed, and i met at amk mrt at arnd 1pm then we met up with momo. we took the train down to jurong east and changed lines to chinese gardens. we met casper there so i told him that we're going in first and that we will meet inside.

since my mum was helping out at the childcare downstairs this morning, i didn't have lunch so i juz grabbed a piece of fried sweet potato and a you tiao(fried doughsticks). we walked to the pool, got in, rented floats, changes, put our stuff into lockers and went off to have fun.

we started off at the lazy river. after a few rounds, we went to take the pink slide because the blue one was closed for maintenance. it was quite thrilling. then we went to the wave pool where we spent a lot of time. we taught momo how to swim and i realised i don't know the style where you have to keep kicking your legs and have to move your arms in a circular motion. after a long long time and several wave sessions later(they have 1 hour intervals between each one), we saw a couple practically making out in the pool. earlier, i've already seen another one where their top are hugging but the girl's legs are already wrapped around the guy under the water surface. anyways, we decided to watch a free show and we formed a triangle with our floats and kept rotating so we can take turns to see. i think the most suspicious looking ones were us, 3 guys forming a triangle and kept rotating non-stop. momo suggested that we should call ourselves something so i suggested "the rotating trio". anyway we soon realuized that there were couples making out in various directions so we just kept watching until the waves started coming and we went back to whatever we were doing before peeping.

after that we went to the slides again, then the jacuzzi, then the lazy river again before returning our floats and taking a shower.

after that we grabbed waffle from rpima deli before walking to the mrt station. we took the train further down to boon lay and had dinner at long john's silver at jurong point. momo and ed ordered e promo hot and spicy chicken set and i ordered a combo set 1. the girl must have thought that i was cute or something (okok, maybe i just looked really tired and hungry)because she gave me an extra piece of chicken. lucky~ so we finished our dinner and went to the arcade to play "taiko no daren 6"(i think that's what's it's called. it's e game with the big drum") it's quite fun but not really challenging.(or maybe it was because we played easy mode)

well, before we went home i wanted to grab some more you tiao but only 1 piece of hum jin peng was left but i wanted to buy anyway. the kind auntie only charged me 50 cents!!!that's 10 cents cheaper! lucky again~

now my arms have a more balanced tan and my tanloine on my arm is gone!! yay!! i look darker!!...for now. hey, i honestly think guys don't have to be really tan to look good. haha. not everyone can not become too tan ok. can also look good in a different way.

well, that's it for today. until tommorow (or rather today), cya~ oyasumi~
