I must say, I probably had one of the most fun time in my life. Or at least my JC life. CCAAB camp had been an unforgettable experience for me, just like Pre-U Sem. And I wish I could relive it over and over again. Through the pain, sweat and tears, we learnt alot through the camp, made new friends and forge stronger bonds between existing friends.

Reflections were the ultimates cos it really ,made me think about being a better leader and even small stuff like flying fox could teach us so much. And the group mates like wei en and all really thought me how to be spontaneous and all, which i think I really must learn this trait of gang-ho-ness.

Came back home with Daniel on Saturday night though, to prepare ourselves for the marathon the next day. When it came, I was pretty satisfied with myself that I could achieve to get to the top within less than 15minute, when neither of us trained. And it wouldnt have been possible without CCAAB. The scenic picturesque up there was great too. And Daniel was being an extremely good friend, with all the encouragment and all. But unfortunately, when we returned to camp, my group was already out at sea doing sea experdition, hence me missing a hell load of fun.

Operation dodo bird was fun too, though there was this one problem which I think Daniel knew about. Tsk.

Train rides back home and to school on the last day was great too. Daniel was being an ass, but yea, relly enjoyed the time I spent with my classmate.

CCAAB dinner was the bomb. Had tremendous load of fun. Meeting up with those group mate sdressed so nicely, with the classmates dressed so beautifully. Gosh. The food was great too, and the reflections of writing behind each others back was hell fun and encouraging too. Then came the dance off which I enjoyed myself most and couldnt help laughing and smiling and dancing to the beat. A part of me wanted to step up to dance, but the rest of me decide to just dance on my own spot instead of taking the limelight. Besides, I'm not that a good dancer. Nevertheless, I had never enjoyed myself that tremendously as I had.

Hit the council room at 11pm before starting to plan the finishing touches of council camp through the night.

The rets of the days were spent with council and lots of reflections too. Went Holland Village for dinner on the first day. And today, we went to the Botanics for the whole morning and played hell load of stuff too. All the childhood games and skits and song-off and picture taking. FUN FUN FUN.

Ah, all good things must come to an end. Cheers, to all friends I've made and for the better friendships that I've forged with them.

PW is coming to an end. Despite all the hard work and late nights and unnecessary stress, I am sad over the fact that its gonna be over soon. In 2 days time, to be more precise. The times spent with the group. All the countless meetings which btw, we just do loads of crap and only 10% concerning OP. Like today at Daniel's house. Karaoke, singing sessions and just loads of rubbish. Gonna miss all of that.

Oh well, OH PEE.

2009-10-19T15:51:00.001+08:00

Me is very happy.
Me got new laptop.
Me parents bought compact laptop for me.
Me parents paid $1700.
Me is very touched and happy.
Me dont have to fight and snatch with me mummy over the current laptop cos me mummy bubble spins everyday.
Me dont have to wait for me mummy to bubble spin finish everyday before me can use anymore.
Me is still very happy me got new laptop.
Me is very tired.
Me will go to sleep soon.
Me is happy that me have new laptop, steel.

I'm addicted to 98.7FM. Really nice music they have there. And the Muttons are DARN FARNIE. Go listen.

Since when do you come around?
And the temperature’s changed, nothing’s the same
Left me in yesterday
You don’t see me that way, touch me that way no more
When you get so cold
I’m not sure just how much longer I can hold

You got me standin’ at the bottom of this mountain that we’ve made
(Mountain that we’ve made)
And the ground is shakin’ from all of our mistakes
(All of our mistakes)
But there’s no one, but then
The ice is in our way
It’s a matter of time
We can rewind

If only you knew
What my heart must do for you
I’m tryna break through
Don’t you think it’s worth the chance?
Let’s leave the past
Is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand? (Where do we stand?)
Can we pull through this avalanche?
(Avalanche, avalanche, oh, this avalanche, avalanche, avalanche)
Can we pull through this avalanche?
(Avalanche, avalanche, yeah, this avalanche, avalanche, avalanche, oh)

We see what’s up ahead
Why do we stay, watching us fadin’
Trapped in by regret
There’s no way out, and there’s no way in, no
And it’s so cold
I’m not sure just how much longer I can hold

You got me standin’ at the bottom of this mountain that we’ve made
(Mountain that we’ve made)
And the ground is shakin’, from all of our mistakes
(All of our mistakes)
But there’s no one, but then the ice is in our way
It’s a matter of time
We can rewind

If only you knew
What my heart must do for you
I’m tryna break through
Don’t you think it’s worth the chance?
Let’s leave the past
Is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand? (Where do we stand?)
Can we pull through this avalanche?
(Avalanche, avalanche, oh, this avalanche, avalanche, avalanche)
Can we pull through this avalanche?
(Avalanche, avalanche, yeah, this avalanche, avalanche, avalanche, oh)

The bond is breaking
And it’s taking over my spirit
(Quickly, quickly)
Something’s shifted
Have we drifted too far, apart now?

If only you knew
What my heart must do for you
I’m tryna break through
Don’t you think it’s worth the chance?
Let’s leave the past
Is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand? (Where do we stand?)
Can we pull through this avalanche?
(Avalanche, avalanche, oh, this avalanche, avalanche, avalanche)
Can we pull through this avalanche?
(Avalanche, avalanche, yeah, this avalanche, avalanche, avalanche, oh)
Avalanche

-Avalanche by Marie Digby

Hopefully tmr, I'll be able to pull through the Econs avalanche =)

2009-09-03T10:43:00.001+08:00

Aloha.

Having econs now so theres time to blog while we're viewing that LTA vid. I'm starting to see the suckiness in my work. That sucks cos as a 6 pointer, I'm not living up to it. I guess i dont deserve that score. Oh well.

Anyone going back ZH soon?

2009-09-01T10:20:00.000+08:00

it sucks when everyone else on the face of this earth goes back to their sec school to see their teachers and friends, while we in ACJC were still having lessons till 4.30pm. looking at those pictures made me sour =(

2009-08-30T10:38:00.003+08:00

Sorry that I dont blog as often now. I'm shuttling between 2 blog avenues. Hah.

Failed my Math test. Again. Idk what's wrong with me (or my math), but JC math is really hard and it really sucks when you cant keep up with the pace. And it's freaking 37 more days to Promos and I'm still in slack mode. Someone please slap me, or arrange for a study date with me =)

Had dinner with Brandon yesterday. It's nice to be in this side of the country with a friend from another side of the country. Being in the West stinks cos it takes eternity to get back. And its friggin waste time. But amk's good. Its near, its cheap.

Then I spent the whole night doing GP articles for idk what reason. Was too tired after a whole day out to start studying.

Sales video is done and that's a burden off my shoulder. Now its seniors' night. This will never end.

Sigh.

2009-08-24T18:59:00.001+08:00

Something I came across in the train earlier which really struck me. I was reading a previous Daily Bread entry. It made me ponder for a long long while.

Here's how it goes:

When I signed up for a popular Internet social network, I was shocked to be greeted with the words, “You have no friends.” Although I knew it was untrue, I still felt sad for a moment. The idea that anyone, even an impersonal Web site, would call me friendless was upsetting. Friends are essential for our emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.

Friends listen to our heartaches without blaming us for having problems. They defend us when we’re under attack. They are happy when we succeed and sad when we fail. They give us wise counsel to keep us from making foolish choices. They even risk making us angry for the sake of making us right. My friends have done all of this and more for me.

Perhaps the best-known friendship in the Bible is that of Jonathan and David. Jonathan was heir to the throne of his father Saul. But he knew that the Lord had chosen David for that role, so he risked his own life to save his friend (1 Sam. 20).

As the Bible shows us, we need to choose friends carefully (Prov. 12:26). The very best friends are those who are friends with God and who strengthen our relationship with Him (1 Sam. 23:16). — Julie Ackerman Link

I do not ask for many friends,
But give me, Lord, the few
Whose loyalty and faithfulness
Are first of all to You. —Meadows

True friends are like diamonds—precious and rare.

I thought the second paragraph meant alot to me. It made me think real deep, hard and long. (I know those adjectives sounded erotic, but it's true)

Oh well.

2009-08-24T00:12:00.000+08:00

Life is like a plane.
It takes off, flies high and lands.
Then it takes off again, flies high and it lands.
And it takes off once more, flies high and it lands.
So the cycle continues.
Sometimes, we have technical difficulties before flying.
Other times, we meet with turbulence while flying.
And then there are times when we land, and we crash and burn.

Which part of the flight are you at now?
The turbulence where it would be over soon?
Knowing that there is this glimpse of hope to hold onto.
Knowing that there will be the sun after the rain.
Knowing that when it's all over, you know you've pulled through.
Knowing that when it's all over, you would have reached your destination.
Knowing that everything was but a test of your faith.

Which part of the flight are you at now?
The landing of the plane?
Knowing that soon, you would crash and burn?
Knowing that there is nothing to look forward to.
Knowing that its time to give up.
Knowing that though everything happens for a reason, yours was a miscalculation on God's side.

Hey but wait.
You were not born to be defeated that easily.
You were not born to give up like that.
You were not born to sigh, sigh and give out greater sigh at the pain you're going through.
You were born to live.
You were born to be victorious.
You were born because God knows what's best for you, even if it doesnt seem so now.

Above all, you were born to be more than conquerors.

i liked today. it gave me reassurance that there was someone out there who trusts me and someone whom i can rely to trust. Though i spent quite long on the train talking, i think it was allw orthwhile.

Spa was crap. I had different readings from everyone.As usual. Why am i not surprised. it was the same for bio spa too/\. sigh. i really wanted to make the teachers proud by doing well in exams. like mrs ung and mr kwok.mrs ung was so damn sweet singing praises about me during parent teacher dialogue session though my conduct in bio has dropped alot. i really dont want to dissappoint her.oh well. till tmr.

2009-08-13T18:01:00.000+08:00

finally managed to create a livejournal. Kindda feel some sense of security there cos theres the privatising of messagesand all. But i dont think I will close this blog down cos it still means alot to me. oh well.

2009-08-10T10:03:00.000+08:00

maybe. maybe people in ACJC are just full of superficiality. or maybe its only from those coming from single sex schools? remind me never to send my kids in there.

2009-08-07T23:19:00.000+08:00

samuel, you're just one big pile of rubbish. you're good for nothing, you dont do very well in anything at all, and you always say the wrong thing at the wrong time which pisses people off. i hate you, samuel ang wei rong. get out of my life.

i dont know. i dont know who i've become. i dont know what to do. i dont know what i'm doing. and neither do i know what i've done. i've been screwing pretty much of my life ever since term 3 or something. suddenly, i feel.. alienated. to be honest, the feeling's fading away. that whole enthusiasm for scones thing. i feel i'm drifting apart. and i dont exactly have anyone very close to me that i can relate to in AC like i had in ZH. i just dont feel attached any longer. then the introvertishness comes into play.and break times are spent either running errands for teachers, running errands for students, or running away from my class to go to the council room alone to just relax and listen to some music.

stressed? not very. i've just beeen having one hell of a term. everything sets in and i'm just, overloaded. there's too many things on my mind. so many things to do.so many things to say. but i dont have anyone i can turn to.

i dont need any consoling on my tagboard whatsoever. you can skip that, really. i just really want a good friend whom i can pour things out to. i just really want someone to be there for me.

i think Go'ds telling me smthing. i know he'splanned for me a direction.but i dont know where its going. i feel lonely. its only me, and God and noone else.

trust me, u have no idea how frustrating this feels. you have no idea.

Fork ME

I am on a 7 day MC starting from yesterday as I was down with flu, fever, cough and sore throat. All the symptoms that seems to show that I kena-ed the stupid H1N1 virus. & day MC may sound fun, but honestly, not for me.

I wanted to go for council invest so much. Put in lots of effort to memorise the pledge and all, I really wanted to have this once in a lifetime experience. I wanted to be officially invested.

But everything that could go wrong went wrong. Even those that were to be right went wrong. So I'm stuck here to self invest.

Disappointed? Extremely.

So I tried consoling myself that this was all part of God's plans. If Job could bear all the pain and tragedies, mine is uncomparable.

But it only helped this much. I'm still disappointed. Sigh.

So my only wish is that God bless the invest, that it may run well and that the other 34ths will not be ill on that day to suffer the same fate as me. I'll be there in spirit.

2009-07-08T23:06:00.001+08:00

I feel like crap now.

2009-07-06T00:07:00.002+08:00

Recently, I've been spending alot more time catching up with my secondary school classmates. I think there really is a need to keep preserving the strong bonds and ensure that our friendship never dies. But it occurred to me, yesterday, while I was with Stel, Beat and Trav about why i really really wanted to hang out more often with them. Okay, some 4e1 people may be plain weird at times, but I dont deny that people in scones/ ACJC are not like that too. But really, yesterday I came to realise that talking to them is alot more, genuine.

Somehow JC life seems to me like those depicted in the outsiders. We're like the SOCS, so full of superficiality. Yea, I have them on both in JC and sec school at times, but talking to the close friends in sec school is really, enjoyable, so to speak.

While we were spending like 5 hours or so doing Lijun's surprise gift, I really enoyed busking in the presence of my good friends in 4e1. It really thought me to cherish my friends, and i really really dont want to lose contact with them. As well as those people that I had went Genting with too. A big milestone for me and my parents cos its the first time I'm leaving the country with friends only and no teachers/ adults.

By the way, please stop asking me about the terms if you see me. It somehow irritates me to know how bad I've done, but it bugs me more that I dont care. Thats ironical cos i dont do a thing about it, and sometimes, i just let the enjoyable feeling of being carefree and not studying but plain slacking take over.

Okay, so Mdm Annie Yong reminded us to do things that are important and urgent, followed by important not urgent, then urgent not important, lastly not important not urgent. Blogging belongs to the 2nd category I think. So I'll try my best.

Mahjong at Don's house thw whole day today from 11 to 11. Owah, thats long. Though not all the time mahjonging. ECP with scones tmr. Sigh, busy busy busy. I need some time to really sit down and reflect.

Till then.

2009-07-04T00:42:00.002+08:00

Much as I'm told time and again to think before I write, I hardly ever do that. For exams especially. I just feel like all the thoughts in my mind and when I get some information or something, I just wanna pen them down and just let the knowledge flow. Enough of exams, terms just ended. Thankfully. Or I would have to suffer even more.

I admit, I didnt study that hard for terms. The amount of time and work and effort put in cannot be compared to the O's. I chionged so much for O's at one point of time, I could remember all the regular people who goes to the library to study, and even their names and school -.- and I would know what time the lady would come do spotcheck, and every single word of the announcement.I would know where to find what book, and where to find what person. I think I studied quite sick last year.

All done cos I thought just finish up this last race, and its over. Holidays forver more. Rubbish. Its a tiring cycle over and over again and now still studying. So i decided. Its time to relax after studying so hard for O's, yea?

Lots of things went through my mind earlier after the terms. To me, I loved the terms. It was my shield, an excuse that I'm no down for training. Now that Terms have ended, training will resume. And so will the official council term begin when we're invested in 2 weeks or so.

I dont like ball games. And i tell that to everyone in my JC who then replies me with a "Then why you join volleyball?" look. One, to overcome my fear of balls cos I got smacked right on my face in primary school. Two, to keep fit with the regular sports training. Three, wanting a change in CCA thinking that 10 years of music making in band had been enough. Four, naively thinking that the sports was always deemed as the "cooler" CCA as compared to performing arts as portrayed in Zhonghua. Five, my mum has always told me of how she and her 4 other siblings were in the volleyball team in secondary school and I again naively though that I inherited some "Volleyball" genes from her.

I was wrong.

I started asking myself where my passion lies in. Music making? Serving? Leading? Sports? And i dread going for trainign sometimes, though it doesnt always happen for council.

Conclusion?

I dont know. But I'll just have to ask God and hopefully he'll show me what he wants me to do to fulfill his plans and purpose.

Ate Aston today. Headed for movies. Was pissed off by Cathay cause the movie which was suppose to start at 1440 started at 1520 instead. And I always though that Cathay has always the shortest adverts. So halfway, for the first time in my life I think, I had to stop watching and get out unwillingly and rushed back to school for the 33rds last GM.

Hell of a thing happened in GM that made me ponder even more. I think I may know where my heart lies now. Maybe, maybe not.

Tomorrow's quite a free day. Hope I can use some time to really thinka bout it and start packing my super messy room.

Till then.

2009-07-02T00:22:00.002+08:00

MEGAN FOX IS DAMN HOT.
oh gosh, i watch transformers earlier with travis and gerald. i tell you, megan fox is so darn hot. ooof. i bet she's the latest ho-female (and i'm the latest hotmale :D )

aside from that, terms had been good considering the fact that i dont study much and am gonna flunk like majority of my subjects. so its been good cos i can find time to catch up with friends and relax and not be so caught up in mugging like everyone is.

my apologies for always not blogging, as i;m just to lazy. to even type the blogger user and everything, forget it. so just come my blog once in a while and check for updates.

i realise i've been spending too much time on the popular social networking site- facebook. seriously not good as it makes jack a dumb boy. its ultra unproductive when you're tuck on fb. sigh. i hope i dont get caught up in fbooking during the A's.

time for me to fb again. nights.

2009-06-07T21:16:00.002+08:00

Back from pre u sem 2 days ago. lots of things that went on there leaving me with an unforgettable memory. i really loved the times we had as a group. going for boring parrellel presentations, interesting panel discussion, fun games, tiring quilt weaving and great bonding times in the pantry and bathroom. too much to say now, so i guess i'll just copy and paste from kenny's blog. he's a great friend from my SG and yea, i really feel the way he feels. hah. off for packing of council camp. will be mia for the next 4 days. see ya then.

"For the last time, i looked at Prince George's Residences. Reluctantly, i dragged my luggage, leaving. Pre-u Sem 2009 is over.

Paddling a floating device consisting of 5 tyres across palawan beach, three-legged soccer, giant captain's ball. Moments that have left a vivid scar in my memory. 19 elites, 1 group, 3 leaders, 1 mind. Their character, perculiarities, laughter, emotions.... We may have known each other for merely five days, but it seems that we have known each other for more than 5 years. School has started for five months, yet the friendships established are not as strong as that of the five days. If onli sg 10 is a class and pre-u sem is a school.

Those are but hopes and wishes that can never come true.

Hitting to the reality, I am a meridian. A cruel fact perhaps. Viva la Victoria, a cheer that motivated us. If onli i have done better for my Os, then that cheer shall represent me as well. If only...

I've never enjoyed myself as much as i did in pre-u sem in this entire year, at least till now.
I am extremely grateful to this groups of friends, friends who brought mi true joy and laughter, friends who educated me, friends whom i can define as friends. thank you. x)"

my exact sentiments for the last paragraph.

2009-06-01T01:49:00.002+08:00

i'll be missing in action for the next coupleof weeks due to pre-u seminar and council camp. trying hard to cope with everything thats coming ro me, including the dreaded zoolympics. gdop was nice today, and i enjoyed myself. gah, i'm gonna sleep. all the best to my sons and the other sec 4s for their chinese paper in a few hours time.

2009-05-10T22:42:00.000+08:00

I just happen to bloghop and saw this on yiwei's blog. really cool.

' In the days after the French Revolution, a man tried to start a new religion that he believed was superior to Christianity. But he was disappointed at his lack of success. He revealed his frustration to a clergyman and asked what he could do.

The clergyman replied that it was no easy task to begin a new religion- so difficult that he had nothing to suggest. But after a moment's reflection he said, "There's one plan that you might want to consider. Why don't you get yourself crucified and rise again the third day? " '

hah.

2009-05-03T14:17:00.000+08:00

I LOVE MY CLASS
I LOVE SCONES =D

2009-04-30T22:48:00.002+08:00

I seriously wanted to blog every week. But i keep procrastinating, and i'm damn busy. anyway,

PRAISE GOD!

he's amazing, i tell you. i pray and i got a freaking silver for NAPFA. it was impossible, but i prayed before every attempt today. and really, God just sent angels to lift me through pull ups, carry me through shuttle run and just lift me for broad jump. praise God, he's awesome!

this few weeks have been extra tired, ever since i joined council. no time to study, hang out nor relax. its leeching my social life away. darn. though i enjoy some moments of council, sometimes its just tiring. nonetheless, i really love my class cos the class spirit is totally there and they give me all the support i need. thanks sconers. so despite so tired, i'm gonna go to school just to have that fun.

theres SJI this sat. attire, sec sch uniform. sounds cool. next week i'll be meeting the 5baotai, and having pre u sem. hopefully the resultsfor council is out too. get this over and done with.

2009-03-25T21:26:00.005+08:00

Monday- Crystal's Birthday Celebration. Planned 2 surprises for her, one in school and one in Island Creamery. But the one in Island Creamery got exposed. Sad. So anyway, we had cake during one of the breaks. And headed for Island Creamery after school. The bus journey was fun, horny and vulgar. But I like it =D Went to St Marg's to accompany Abbie to take her SGC. Did some silly stuff like welcoming people at the school gate. Hilarious. Starting associating names with faces too! At least I look like a Samuel. Crystal doesnt have a crystal face, she has an "elizabeth" face. Had Very Berry at IC and took loads of photos too. Talked crap again. Mad jacked after that. Not bad, but rather expensive? Lots of hilarious things happened again. Like when we sang our school song and national anthem syllable by syllable. And when Ian does his joker stuff.

Photos!

Mad jack: Abbie, Wen Han, Samuel, Daniel, Ian, Crystal

Island Creamery: Nick, Sherlyn, Abbie, Brandon, Benji, Ian, Crystal, Joey, Wen Han, Samuel, Yauwan

Okay, this week a lil too busy playing that i forgotten to blog. Everytime I go online, first thing check facebook, second thing play viwawa. No life? Doubt so. Spent quite alot of time chilling out with sec 2classmates, sec 4 classmates, jc classmates, band members, section mates. It's just that I'm kindda itching and bored to viwawa, to wahjong in specific.

My emails exploding. Fine, I keep it under control everyday. But the comments from the photos are overwhelming. overwhelming i tell you. But that's great. Theres life in the class. I like =D

Dinner with section mates plus chat with band mates had been quite okay. To be honest, I was dissappointed in them. For the attitude that all of them have. To them, band is just a cca that they can make do with. At least this is what I feel. Being late, being rude, being unleaderly, if there is even a proper term for that kind of characteristic. They're still, nonetheless, that cute bunch of people. But i really dont like how they treat band. All this eyars of effort that previous batches and generations of batches would have been gone to waste. Sigh.

2e3 class gathering was a blast. I guess this is the class that I feel for, the class that I feel really at home in zhss. 2e3 was a class full of class spirit, fun, joy and laughter. The tiems we spent and all. Reallyfun class. In there, I'mjust me. Happy and carefree. I have friends who are damn funny, and i enjoy every bit of my time with them. Just Acia-ed instead of heading for steamboat, as originally planned. Cam whored. Check out my facebook.

4e1 gathering became a mini fantastic 7 outing. Headed for vivo. Had fun chatting and all. Didnt catch suspect x though. A pity.

I'm back from sconers outing.Yet another blast. My family, and my closest family I have in AC. Cool, fun and really awesome classmates who spent our time in Sentosa today. Wanted to meet at 7.40, but I woke up late and so did a few others. Eventually reached Sentosa at 9am. Found a littletiny hut shelter, unloaded, and volleyballed. Quite soon, they were all in the water. I didnt want to. So i sat by the shore. Benji cheated me. So i got pulled into the water. Had hell load of fun with them playing captains ball in the sea, and just crapping our way with my balls. Yes, they were as sick as me. I wasnt alone in this. But yet, it showed my true colours. Awwwwww.

Headed for shore after an hour plus of water. Volleyed match. Our team won! Hahas. Was quite simple version of volley though, and i dislike beach volley cos of the sand. Sucks when it goes into your mouth. Had some artistic sand sculpture after that. Proceeded to bathe, and then back to mainland.

Pastamania-ed with those people with the exception of Benji as he had to go off earlier, but an addition of the canoe guys. Was crapping again, as usual. Then had more crapping session while waiting for our movies. The movie was Hotel for Dogs. If Slumdog was a 4 star show, this would be a 2 star show. Not that bad, but not very good either. Initially, i thought i was in the wrong theatre. Kindda a kiddy show. But some jokes and funny parts are funny. Me and Daniel laughed. The rest didnt seem to have as good sense of humour? Or i possibly didnt hear them.

Had dinner with the 2 ladies, Weiling and Liyan at AMK Hub. Initially wanted to subway but settled for food court in the end. Talked and talked and talked till our mouth went dry. Headed for home about 2 hours later.

Schools starting in 35 hours time and I'm not done with homework yet. Time to start chionging after church tomorrow. Please, if you see me online, or Viwawa-ing, stop me and get me to start on with my tutorials. Hah. Photos will be uploaded when they're on facebook.

4-1! Liverpool scores! Hahas. OPkay so we thrashed Man Utd and still have chance to gain the EPL title. Hopefully bah. But Mr Lim (our matsh tutor) will be quite upset and probably turn us into vampires again. I guess only the sconers understand what i'm talking. Oh and hes a Man Utd fan.

Managed to pull through the interview and proposal for the Pre Uni Sem without knowing what I'm in for. So by chance (unfortunately and fortunately) i got selected to take part in this 5 day residential programme at NUS. Along with Brandon, Daniel, Benji and Wei Jie from SC1. And gosh, I have no idea about the whole economic crisis and what about wall street or lehman brothers and all that. So i'm in for a big big trouble. So too bad have to spend these 3 days at home researching and to submit the research by this tues. RUSH RUSH RUSH!

Was sick for the past week. I think theres a bug going around ACJC. Our class was like almost half stricken with sickness esp cough. Managed to finally see the doctor earlier, and spend a heftly sum of 43 bucks on some pathetic medicine. So may God just lay his healing hands on me and may I recover soon.

Because of the medicine, it made me sleepy for a whole day. So the whole day today had been spent on sleeping. Serious. I dont know how long ago I had such long sleep and afternoon naps. Sigh, waste of time which is a scarce resource (Economics)

Yestrday after Pre-U sem briefing, went out with 5 other Sconers and 2 other barker boys to holland V for dinner. Ate Ipoh Hor Fun and the service was not bad. Crapped there and Ian really made us laugh with all his lame questions.

Cold Rocked after that and enjoyed a Kiddies STRAWBERRY plus RUM AND RASIN with OREO TOPPINGS. I cant stop being fasinated by the coolness of mashing all the ice cream and toppings together on that cold rock. Played Truth or Truth and unfortunately, I was the only one there who hasnt been in a relationship before. Didnt have as much exciting stories as them to share. =( But it was still fun listening to them and all those deep dark secrets =D

Time for photos!

I love the classmates in my class. They're an awesome bunch of people. Thanks for the memories, guys.

2009-03-08T00:25:00.004+08:00

Returned about an hour ago from sconers class outing. really fun and i really did enjoy myself. i guess thats the difference when you're a leader, and when you're a follower. all this years when organising class outings, i always had to take the trouble to make sure that eevrything goes according to plan, what bus/ train to take, sms people what time to meet, plan where to eat, plan how the scholars can make it before curfew, think about whether the people are okay with it, always being prepared and call for reservation of seats, having to check out price etc etc. but today, i guess i experience and all new ball game. just slacking and following the crowd and being just me. enjoying myself, chit chatting and taking photos, not having to worry about anything. i guess the rest of the class too. maybe with the exception of our welfare rep and treasurer, and our photographers. i guess i enjoy both sides of the coin, but prefer much more to be who i am now.

okay, so the class outing was considered a success. when 4e1 has a class outing, probably less than 15 turns up. proud to say that 21 people turned up today so yea, the more the merrier. waited from 6 to about 630 for late comers at dhoby. ate at just acia and crapped alot while enjoying our meal, drinks and ice cream. took photos along the way. and headed for slumdog at the cathay.

slumdog was a nice movie. i wouldnt rate it the bets, but yea, i like the dance and songs of bollywood, as well as how the director/ scriptwriter could fuse the gameshow with his life experience. real nice. without the sconers, i'll prolly rate it 3 stars, but with the sconers, 4 stars cos i really enjoy their company.

after the movie, went out. packed the 21 of us in one lift ( wei jie took the escalator, and a random guy happened to come in) cam whored outside the cathay for quite some time. enjoyable though, and north lodge movedto dhoby. LOL. okay, internal joke.

walked from there towards somerset. on the way, some people left. so theres 10 of us left. headed for macs at causeway point. partially treated the 10 of us to 8 vanilla cones, large fries and drinks. played some game before heading home with the "train gang". unfortunately, i'm the only one living along the red line so i trained home alone =(

okay. gotta prepare materials to tutor joseph electrolysis tmr. byeeeee.

-photos will come soon when the photog people are doneposting on facebook. cheers.

2009-03-03T21:38:00.003+08:00

I am enjoying my life in AC! =D

Okay, so it may not be thattttttttttttttttt great. Because of all the studying an pressure being in one of those top classes. But really, I enjoy being around my classmates, having all the fun joking around , having to go through mass PE together. So to the sconers out there, thanks and lets continue to strive to be a united and fun class! =) Its really a bunch of fun people. We are always cracking lame jokes and all. Fun! Sconers2010 FTW!

Volleyball training was quite okay since we didnt really do much strenous exercise yesterday. Today Mass PE was a killer. But still, tenacity! Managed to pull through all the rigorous exercise. Yay! But Wei Ling said I looked half dead =|

2009-02-26T14:49:00.003+08:00

Having Maths tutorial soon so I'm gonna make this post short and sweet.

Volleyball had been okay and I guess the passion is somewhat there, hopefully stronger. Training is tough especially for the footwork and all, but I'm sure it'll make me a great player one day. It ends at 9 every Mon, Wed and Fri. Really tiring, but thats JC life.

Yesterday was cross country. Finished the competitive run with 200plus position. But I guess it was one of the best cross country since I didnt have to care about the class unlike in ZHSS where the monitor did everything admin. More importantly, the run was fun, water points and all, and the ending where it rained really madly and everyone is drenching mad. You see people running across the road to take shelter in the void deck across the Bishan park. And water reaching ankle high. And everybody ( except some teachers) were soaking wet.

Class life has been great. Though everyone around me are either 6 or 7 Pointers, they arent really that studious like 4e1. The guys are really really playful and fun, like the 2e3 guys while the girls are well, more or less nice too. Math lecture had been horrible but doubts were cleared during tutorial. And i still love Biology.

2009-02-19T10:38:00.002+08:00

Aloha. I'll make it a point to blog at least twice a week. At least. And this week doesnt count. Anyway, in the school library now and using their iMac to blog. I really think iMac is cool and I dont mind investing in one =)

Went for canoe training 2 days ago and it really was quite hellish as we had to run, do push ups, pull ups and run some more. In case you didnt know, this weakling here seating infront of the iMac can only do 1 pullup for the previous NAPFA that he had in Zhonghua. That day, yours truly was made to do 20. I tell you, i almost killed myself. Hah. Not so much of the muscle but the blister on the palm. Then came the after effects whereby my whole body has been aching for the past 2 days. But it's getting better, at least I hope since I drank protein shake. So I'll be saying hello to my new CCA - Volleyball.

Band's a history. Vball's my futue. Though I totally suck at it, I think I should be able to get some genes from my mum??

Total Defence day was celebrated in church and I really liked the service. Praise and Worship was awesome. Got held back due to Usher's Day but still got to meet up with 5BaoTai and Yiching for a farewell lunch at Aston's @ The Cathay. "BJed" after that, (it is Ben & Jerry's not BlowJ**) in which we bought the 6scoops ice cream. Reminds me about that Vermonster I ate with 4e1 on Graduation night. I guess Graduation night had really been fun, I really miss it.

So now I'm having fun in ACJC still, and lessons are finally starting as a class after 3 full weeks of play + slack studying. I'm an official member of SCONE, which actually is our class 1SC1. SO just spell that in words. Being in another "1" class aint gonna be easy, with 4 scholars and all 6-7pointers. But if I could get through 4e1, i think SC1 wont be a problem. Btw, I'm taking BCME.

So yea. Time to update the class blog. Till then.

2009-02-10T14:09:00.003+08:00

I locked the blog temporarily as I wanted to do an upgrade aka renovation to my blog. Unfortunately, due to time factor (and laziness), I'll just have to open up the blog without doing anything to the skin and all. Awwww so sad.

Anyway I'm in ACJC and really having fun fun and more fun!!! =DDD I cant help but really keep promoting the goodness that ACJC offers us students (at least for now). SO I'm highly encouraging Zhonghuarians to seriously consider this super fun school but yet can get good results. Went back to ZHSS ydae and saw many ex classmates and schoolmates. Totally unexpected but we got to chat alot.

So I'll get back home and post more stuff about orientation. Sorry in the school library now and in an hour's time I have choir auditions. Yes, CHOIR. I'm not going to consider band even though its honours band =)

2009-01-13T00:42:00.003+08:00

WEN ZHA WEN DA

I'll remember that always, Mr Ng Thiam Seng. Anyways, having MIAed for quite some time, i'm gonna do a quick post. I think I'm really blessed by God to have such good results. I've been praying so hard that whatever i get, that it would be a good result. And even if it wasnt, that it is all part of God's ultimate plan to bring me to a school where i can learn more about him/ spread the gospel to the people there or just be a messenger of God. Praise God for my results.

Initially when Dolly Ong said all the stuff, I was pretty nervous for not being able to get a single digit, which i badly wanted. Then after Aaron, it was my turn. I doubt i'll ever forget that moment. Mr Poh asking me to sit. Mrs Ho smiling at me and passing me all the bookelts. Then MrPoh showing me this results slips where I see many As. Then i asked him how much i got cos i really didnt understand the slip. And he was like, ask me to count before he reached out his hand and said congratulations, six points. At that moment, I really just stunned. Then reality strucked me and I thank them so much.

Drama was up next cos once i left, i screamed through the entire doorway, in which according to many sec 4s, it caught their attention at why this mad ass was running off screaming. Andyea, I was just utterly shocked and happy by such good results. And i wasnt catching anyones attention on purpose. Things happened fast after that and everyone got their results. I hugged a few teachers that I really thanked them so much for. Its a pity i didnt get to see mr ng, but i smsed him to thank him anws. My sons then came down asked me. And I really hope it would be the same for them next year too.

All these months of studying paid off. And I'm so happy that the Lord pulled me through everything. Through the endless cycle of having to go to the library daily to study and read comics at the same time. Having to go through countless ssps.Having to stay back with mrs ngiam or mr ng to clarify my doubts. It all paid off. And it wouldnt have been possible without God. I'm serious. This results were unexpected. All this while of studying, I just tell myself to study so that on this very day, I would do God proud, and I would show this years sec 4s that even someone not so intelligent like me can do it with the hardwork, and with God. I want to be a testimony for God. Nothing would have been possible without him. And i want those people out there to know that too. 6 points is impossible, but God does the impossible.

I'll end with something i read from yiwei's blog which made me think alot.

"My friend, when you worry, you are actually believing that the devil has the power to make inroads into your life that God cannot protect you from. But when you refuse to worry, you are putting your faith in God. You have more confidence in His love and power working for you than in the devil’s ability to harm you! When you refuse to worry, but choose to rest in the finished work of Christ, you will see the manifestation of your blessing. You will see your miracle!"

-i saw God's miracle.

2009-01-03T00:10:00.002+08:00

okay. happy new year. i havent blogged this year so this will be my first. will be a long year ahead but i know that God has plans for me, in a new school, new environment, new friends. excited about genting, scared for the results.

wanted to blog bout the stayover at ching'shouse. but it's late. i'll do so tmr.

Lord, i need you. i'm breaking down. first time this year. help.

9:40 PM

Dear Lord,

i'm speaking aloud a prayer. a prayer i hope you'll hear and answer like asap. My department is screwed Lord, screwed. and i always thought that Lord you were guiding me and helping me make correct decisions all along. Lord, whats happening? On saturday, I've come to realise that both my assistants have an extremely strict mum. which means i am about to have heads or assitant heads that cant attend meetings and what not. which means i'll have assistants who will not have the time and freedom to do their duty due to parental control. Lord, what are your plans? i'm lost. and tired. and yet you said " come onto me all who are weary and i will give you rest". i have not had a single rest. im tired. weary. exhausted both mentally and physically. my mind is stretched to its fullest Lord, and you dont seem to be doing anything about it.

after that call, i felt perhaps getting him as my assistant was the greatest mistake. i was too soft and biased. and it changed his attitude. Lord, help me. our relationship drifting apart, i hardly get to talk to someone i use to love most now. and now that i've made up my mind to be harsh and to scold, i'm faced with an attitude of "scold loh, i dont mind". Lord, whats happening. what happened?

i've comfort many with the bible verses in your scripture. but i can never comfort myself. Lord i need you. i need ur strength to lift me up. i'm really weary Lord. i need someone Lord, i need you. send me an angel. or a friend. but i noe u never do. but Lord, i would still liek to pray for guidance that u continue to lead me to the right path and make right decisions, and to bless my dept. Lord heal my heart's wound, and strengthen me for you said come onto me all who are weary and i will give u rest.

In jesus name
Amen.

just band com meeting. another adrenaline rush. stress hormones. or probably a hormone of despair, helplessness and dissapointment. i dunno if i've chosen the right ones to take over. i've no doubts about them. they HAVE the potential. but probably time management and other factors and commitments like class, studies, relationship and what not. its hard to choose. perhaps one day they'll realise. i dont want my dept to fall. and i wont allow it. So Lord i pray u watch over my dept and asses(assistant), guide them lead them and be with them, that you grant them wisdom and good time management. thank you lord. amen. chirstian songs coould be a huge stress relief. listening to sherrie's hillsongs. and yup, feel much btr. i have no idea whats in my mind now though. its all messy and i dunno what lies ahead. hope the Lord will guide me. i need someone to talk to. desperately. cos i think i just lost one.

"Hi I'm back? u missed me? yes i noe u do. dont have to say anything. silence means consent. hahas."

okay. so that was like my copyrighted sentence everytime i come back from lessons to my sec 1 class. so sec 1 camp was great. too lazy to update so many details but just generally, first day of sch went to their class quite quiet. then sec day had camp itself. joined them after lessons, and they were quite enthu. had to be station master for rush hour. but after that camp preperation and after dinner was fun. i was like damn high after dinner. then do the cheer and all. then even in class after dinner, the other facils were like so friggin irritated by my lameness and highness. hahas. but at least the sec 1s enjoy and that impt.

second day was real tiring cos that morning slept at 3. woke up at 5. then at 6 plus talk to the class and spoke more about myself -.- anyways, didnt have much lesson so most of the time with my class. then played rush hour with my class plus campfire prep. was real fun cos we had to do sexy moves and all. with everything, there was campfire despite rain initially. all went well nad then had supper. read the people's reflections. and i'm so honoured to be in most of them =) hahas.

third day was real tired but had to cheng zhu. erm, did some autograph, and ultraman got first! yay! hahas. at keast after all the effort and voice we put in, we got first. so quite proud of them as i asked them to promise me to get first like my 1e6 last year. so had to go for cca orientation.

sigh. kindda miss the camp. and i really hope to be a facilitator next year, but too bad gonna graduate. oh oh oh and i'm like real popular facil from 1e5! hahas. cos have the evaluation form then have some best facil or something and like more than 3/4 the class put my name? LOL. and they claim i'm funny zzz.

okay, zi high time over. time to get to studies. till then. "

2008-12-25T00:01:00.003+08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ONE AND ALL!!!

Unfortunately, I wont be carrying on with part 3 today cos I gotta blog other stuff first.

First things first, I wanna give a big THANK YOU to the following people who contributed in getting me a pleasant birthday gift which is the APACS EDGESABER 7 badminton racket that i blogged 2 weeks ago saying i wanted to save and get it on my own. Thank You:
-Travis
-Vincent
-Gerald
-Lijun
-Dawei
-Jun Hao
-Donovan
-Darryl
-Beatrice
-Dionne
-Andrew
-Stella
-Chee Yew
-Mr Poh

It wasnt really a surprise that I got it actually, cos dear Travis gave me alot of clues.

Next, thank you to those who sent me birthday messages despite me being overseas, namely liyan, chek ying and donovan. As well as yvonne and sandra for sending me a bon voyage sms. I'm sorry if i've left out any names but please do tell me if so. And also thanks to those who wished me.

Then, a big THANK YOU to the government, sadly, for giving me the money. Actually I dont know whether to thank you or thank myself cos I worked hard for it anyway isnt it? Anyway, 3 days ago when I returned from Taiwan, I received 5 different ang paos from people. 2 of which was from teh government cos of teh Merit Bursary Award and the EAGLES award. Another 2 is from my grandma for my birthday and for education money and the last is from a friend who returned from UK recently.

So there, quite alot of money now. Gotta spend them on the Genting trip which we have already booked. So please dont look for me from the 5th to 9th January. 5th to 6th January being a facilitator for 3rd year running for the sec 1 orientation camp in which the dumbass cloned sheep pathetically organised for it to be so short. 7-9 jan I will be away in genting with Travis Gerald and Donovan.

Okay, time to sleep. Have church and christmas dinner with 4e1 tmr. Next post should be part 3 of my trip. Till then.

OHOHOH,
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU TOO, SAMMY. Lols sorry I just published post when sammy called. Kindda surprised to receive his call.Hope you enjoy your party, btw. Oh and he was liek asking me whether I was enjoying outside now, or was I still with my books. That made me sounded so enrdy. Gosh I need a life! Why the heck am I facing this dumb box on Christmas?!?! Thank goodness I've got plans for countdwon to enw year. If not I seriously have no life. Anyway, till then.

2008-12-22T00:32:00.021+08:00

Part 2 - 14 December

So second day began when we checked out of Imperial Hotel. Breakfast sucks. But the toilet in our room is nice! View the Part 8 or part 7 next time for the pictures of the toilet bowl cos we stayed there againw hen we returned to Taipei. Anyway, the toilet bowl has its own spray and whatever not. So cool!

yea, 2 girls ogling at me. wahahaha

this pose was actually imitating some japanese old ladies who were acting cute doing it too. they left and we took over. hehe.

we're pointing to who's the shortest.

Then we headedfor this little town where the aboriginal culture still lingers. And that would also include our lunch. First meal in Taiwan that Chan Brother provides(excluding supper), not impressive.

sun wu kong?? o.O

restaurant

this is the food

its a big fat huge egg to crack

Proceededto the harbour after that. Its freaking cold. Ehw ait no I think its just a river. Anyway its freaking cold and I had to put on the hood. This is the only place that is cool.

Next we headed to the shopping area for DANSHUI. Sells lots of food ratehr than clotehs andall. Its like our pasar malam.

we wanted to take up close with the ass

lovely place to shop for souveniors

oh this dog also very nice. dogs are everywhere there in Taiwan.

this is some lady who dressed up as dont know who and....

she became my second girlfriend. oh fyi i broke up with that SIA stewardess because she's in love with the pilot. XD

like i said, we eat and sleep eat and sleep, where most sleeping is done on the bus.

Next we headed for the expensive shopping area of TAIPEI 101, tallest building in the world. Didnt seat the elevator all the way up cos its expensive and I expect it to be like the Petronas Tower. So we shopped through all teh branded stuff but eventually landed up at a not so branded GIORDANO where my mum and sis bought a jacket to share.

TAIPEI 101

Head for dinner next and during the journey, saw this really cool restaurant where the seats are swings held from chians from the celings. Damn nice!

Yes I know the picture is unlcear. The bus was moving. So anws had dinner at I forgot where, I think its the night market. Before we headed for our second Hotel high up in an ulu ulu place. Look out for Part 3 soon!

2008-12-21T22:25:00.009+08:00

So I'll get started with this 8 part episode on my trip. Generally, the trip was quite okay cos the tour guide was reallly funny. Basically alot of eating then sleeping then eating then sleeping, since the country is so big that bus rides could be as long as 3 hours, right after a meal!! No wonder I'm fat, alot fatter. I put on ** kg! zzz.

First time with Chan Brothers. So here it goes.

DAY 1 - 13 DECEMBER 2008

Flight is at 12pm. So we were at the airport around 10, did the procedures etc etc. Had breakfast at Terminal 3 and gosh, it really is extremely expensive. After that went into departure hall to do duty free shopping.

spot the hidden mickey

o.O

mickey. again.

parents

yea, i aspire to be a model. anws, this is at the linkway to the plane.

walk walk excited excited walk walk.

meet my girlfriend.

So we sat peacefully on the plane. Pilot came in and said there were some technical difficulties and so we had to wait while they repair. Served with some drinks in the meantime. Then the pilot said over the intercom again, that the aircraft dont know where spoil and cant be repaired. Dang. Luckily never fly yet, or I would be somewhere over the South China Sea now.
So we all had to get off the plane, and go to another gate to wait for another SQ aircraft. Waited for 2 hours before the enxt aircraft was available for us to board again. In the meantime while waiting for the aircraft, I used the internet to do a short blogging and then played Viwawa.

while waiting, sis and mum chit chat on the phone

and we went over the whole molestation procedure all over again cos my belt is made of metal and i didnt remove it.

walk walk.

Reached Taipei about 2 hours later? Went straight to the Shih Lin night market to try out several of their Local delights. Yum yum. Our Shihlin cant compare to theirs (duh) cos the things they have there are really, unique so to say.

entrance of shihlin

their mrt station opposite shih lin

these 2 fruit stalls sells very nice bittergord+honey juice.

So day 1 ended when we retired at the Imperial Inter Continental Hotel. Next up, DAY 2!

2008-12-21T01:19:00.001+08:00

Anyone missed me? I guess not. I'll blog some other time then. Hah.

2008-12-13T12:54:00.002+08:00

Yes I know that I'm supposed to be halfway on the plane now. But before take off, the plane captain said that theres a missing part/ malfunction in the plane. So all of us had to get out and change to anotehr aircraft. Hopefully the other aircraft has no problem. hahas. I dont want to die just yet.

Genting trip has been 60% confirmed so I'm really looking forward to it. If everything's okay, us 4 guys would be up there from the 5th to the 7th of january when everyone else starts school and the sec 1s go for their orientation camp. Which means I wont be able to be facilitator! Sian.

Okay, so theres only a few minutes left to use the free internet access comp and I'll log out now. The gate sure has alot of people.

Bye.

2008-12-13T11:27:00.002+08:00

Okay, I'll be boarding in about half an hour's time. So heres a last post before I leave for all the faithful readers out there. Hahas, or just in case the plane crashes =/ Hopefully not.

T3 is really nice, I think its my second time here. Sis, Mum and Dad are shopping while I'm using the free internet access provided by the Terminal.

Looked at the itenary and realised that everyday we'll be changing hotels. How tiring. But still, hopefully it'll be fun, especially on my birthday. Gotta shop shop and shop.

Will be online whenever i can cos i brought my ipod touch.

Till then.

2008-12-12T23:47:00.002+08:00

Aloha! I'll be leaving Singapore in 12 hours time. Not excited, damn sian. But i dont have a choice. Worse part is not being able to spend my birthday with any friends. But perhaps even if I'm in Singapore, there will not be anyone who will do so? Yea probably.

So I'll be back in a weeks time. Dont miss me. Hahas. Though I think I'll still be online most of the time at night if the hotel has WIFI. In advance, Happy Birthday To Me.

2008-12-10T23:10:00.003+08:00

BACK BACK BACK! Had some fun at chalet. But sometimes i really got pissed off by some people. Overall, I think I quite enjoyed 2e3o6 chalet. Hopefully, its not our last. Hahas. Will blog tomorrow.

But now, just to promote. My friend is selling a toy car that would make a good christmas gift. So I'm promoting on his behalf. Car's quite cool, as it can drive on walls and ceiling. For physics students, its something to do with pressure. So anws, for more info, heres the link.

http://plain-white-kite.blogspot.com/

Call/MSN/SMS me if you're interested. And i hope i get commisioned. LOLS okay joking.

Tired, nights.

I dont want to fall in love with you again.

2008-12-06T00:37:00.002+08:00

Gerald just reminded me that I'm having my birthday soon. How fast. I almost forgot too.

Today's quite slack, cos i just badmintoned in theafternoon and ate dinner after that before sitting in front of the laptop doing some research on badminton. And i saw a really cool racket! lols. but i think it's still ex. So i gotta save save save!

looks kindda plain here. but i read a blogger's comments. sounds damn good. lols. save save save!

2008-12-05T23:15:00.001+08:00

And then a hero comes along
with the strength to carry on
and you cast your fears aside
and you know you can survive.

So, when you feel like hope is gone
look inside you and be strong
and you'll finally see the truth
that a hero lies in you.

i like this song alot =DD

2008-12-04T16:29:00.013+08:00

Hello. Was busy packing my room. Its still nowhere near neat. Oh well. Genting trip should be confirmed. Anyone else interested to go with us? Hahas. 5th January, when the others are returning to school and we can enjoy one last week of holiday before doomsday. Sigh, so fats! Gotta enjoy the rest of the holiday. Oh, I realised that a year has passed since KL trip. So many things changed. Friendships, memories. I guessed the only thing I enjoyed was the hotel stay? But, things had to change. Oh well.

Just got news that BI would be on the 13th, on the day I'm leaving for Taiwan. How great, how great.

While packing, I saw few stuff that I thought is worth taking photos. Enjoy.

Something that I wrote in sec 1

Instructions that Lihua gave us when we first came into band i think.

Jobscope for band major, then. Lols. I think Assistant band major more liekly, oh well. I'm contended with being SC. =)

Not very successful, actually.

I dont think I met any of the above requirements.

i didnt know i was busy meeting so many teachers in april.

found the reflections that we did early this year when we attended the release of o level results. and in a months time, its our turn. so fast.

Sigh. I realised that I'm not going to have a sweet sixteen afterall. Chek ying was talking to me over msn about going to watch nc16 movie once we're 16. But I'll be away in Taiwan. What the crap. Sian. Oh well, I just have to live with that then. To think I love to give people their sweetest sixteen, only to see mine dissappear. *poof*

Was out with joseph last sunday. I really think he has matured alot. Seriously. He is really my closest friend, my closest son. I'll post pics of the Singapore Flyer + Marina Barrage experience soon. Till then.

As I look at the photo, I realised that we used to be so close. And i wonder, what happened. I doubt I can talk to you the way I used to. I dont even know if I can face you. But all I know is that sometimes, seeing you with _______ pains me alot. Makes me jealous. But what can I do.What can I do.

2008-11-30T22:29:00.003+08:00

HELLO. Yes, i realised that i havent post about the overnight stay at don's house 2 fridays ago. so anws to summarise things, we stayed over at his house for tong xiao mahjiang (overnight mahjong).we came in the afternoon with dawei and darryl. played awhile then went down for badminton. came up and watch tv played some comp, before going down again for dinner since dawei had to go home. then bought some snacks from ntuc and came up to start the torturous journey. as usual, i cant do without sleep though i was the one who initiated this thing. so around 3 plus i nappedfor 5 minutes plus. then woke up, had cup noodles courtesy of donovan. and carried on. by 6 i was goner. i wanted to rest for 5 minutes but in the end slept on the sofa for 3 hours. woke up at 9 to see the mum in front of me. damn paiseh. by then, travis had returned to school, don and jun hao were in the room mapling. apparently, i was so soundly asleep that all the while they were watching tv on teh sofa where i was sleeping and talking and chatting and i was still sleeping -.- so yea, pictures pictures pictures! anymore overnight mahjong, anyone? i'm game for it XD

not very nice tiles

donovan, a great host.

jun hao taking his time to select a tile to discard. oh, those u see are my tiles.

see people like travis got bored as jun hao takes his own sweet time thinking of what tiles to discard.

donovan had something up his sleeve. i think he wants to "chu lao qian" lols.

donovan's tiles in one of the game

travis "hu" i think.

2008-11-29T00:00:00.002+08:00

you guys dont see that urge, do you? cos noone's bothering to help me do something about it. why not we just cancel it then. cos i'm feeling pretty f***ed up about this whole thing. -.-

2008-11-26T20:01:00.005+08:00

BIG MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: SAMUEL HAVE SUCCESSFULLY LOST 3KG IN 2 WEEKS. YAY!

lols. ok, so MIA period is over. now i'm BIA. Back In Action. lots of things to blog about. no time at all. so i'll just blog about the new sexy - asics GT 2130. finally bought a pair of running shoes. needed it desperately cos i'm pretty active and always doing sports especially jogging everyday ever since the hols started. that's how i can freaking lose 3kg. hahas. i'm fat, no doubt about it. but i'm so glad i made it into the 50'skg range. well done, samuel! =)

ok, will post about other things soon.

2008-11-16T23:17:00.023+08:00

Helllo, Good morning. Yes, I'm blogging so late in the morning cos i just uploaded all the pics for the outing at seoul garden. i'll blog about the happenings and all like later or something in the day. right now, i'll just watch finish my cantonese drama. exciting! hahas. some police show. catch me now. oh, and i'll add in the captions at a later time. ciao.

2008-11-10T21:46:00.002+08:00

I'm bored. Springsfield said i pia very hard. But i hardly doubt so. It's like i only did maybe 200+ chemistry mcq questions today? As compared to people like vincent, I am wayyy wayyy slacker.Still, he advised me not to study soo hard. And i think I really have to listen to that before I go all nerdy again.

This few days have been studying with him at the library. Its nice to seat with someone you know and yet you wont tend to talk so much. He's a much talkative person then me. But somehow, we dont talk so much unlike when I;m studying with weiling or liyan. So I guess that's good. Besides, different schools learn different things so i did learn quite a lot from him. I think. Lols.

He asked me a really good question. The conversation went like this.
Me: So is your school going to have prom night?
Springs: Yea, there will be. But its all guys. So you cant really call it a prom. More like graduation night.
Me: Cool. At least you guys have something of that sort.
Springs: Huh? So your school does not have graduation night?
Me: Nope, only graduation day.
Springs: Only graduation day? No night? Huh why?
Me: Good question.

Then i read Joan's blog about their upcoming graduation night. Seriously, why doesnt our school have like a prom or something. Makes us really jealous of otehr school. Even whitley sec has a prom this friday. Zzz.

So the preparation for O's is coming to an end. The combine science ends tmr, the chem students the day after, and suckers like me who take bio ends on thursday. I am so going to enjoy the balance between studies and comics for the next 2 days. Its my freaking last 2 days to study in my secondary school life.

Before springsfield left, we had a conversation on our JC life. He manage to DSA into ACJC!! Like wth. ANd people like me have to pia so hard to get a freaking 9 points at the least. He's convincing me to join their band together with him. Highly unlikely. I never want to join abnd again. 10 years of my life in this route has taken up much of my time. Its time for a change. Bowling! Hahas. Anyway, lucky him actually rejected TJC over ACJC despite TJ being the top 5. Like wtheck? Ok, so I'm working towards entering a JC now. But which? ACJC is way too far and way too good for my marks to qualify. According to him, AJC works alot and has not as rewarding results. SAJC is a slacky environment. That leaves me with.. practically no otehr JC to go to that offers bowling, and isnt the top 5 JC. Zzz.

AH. Family's having problem now. Gotta go. Bye.

2008-11-07T23:44:00.007+08:00

i remember dreading and sighing about coming to nco 4 days ago on monday. when we first step into this foreign place with foreign people who only knew the universal language - music. but now after 4 days, i think its so fast that tmrs the big day. its been a long yet fast journey with the other band peeps. yes, footdrills sucked and i didnt enjoy things a lil here and there. but display technique is somehow fun with mr lawrence siao. hes always forgetting what he wants to say and repeats the last word again and again. LOL. and the different things we do as a band major contingent is fun though tiring. the friends like nigel, momo sammy and all, quite fun. hahas. wish NCO could be 2 weeks now. anyways, tomorrows the big day guys. to all NCO cadets out there, JIAYOU! =)"

NOVEMBER 17, 2007

"hi!

back from NCO and first day of work at Food Expo. where should i start? hmm. probably yesterday?

5 days at NCO pass real quickly. really, i remember dreading to come for NCO and being anti social on the first day by reading my books during camp. but i guess, as time pass, friendships really forged deeply. now, i just miss it. i've been to so many camps and this is really ( at least for now) a memorable one. unlike leadership camps or orientation camps where u play and play, this one is musically trained and at least theres something common between u and ur friends. so anyway, ydae was the POP. sure was fun. and sad. in the morning and afternoon, we did POP rehearsals. and it all started from scratch since tuesday and wednesday. was fun having at the bball court, and ydae was the actual thing. then in the vening, zwinds members came, polished my instruments, dressed me up. mr siao went through with us the steps again. and then showtime.

as i was in the parade square, i was thinking back that one year have passed so fast and it was only a year ago where we saw lihua and jia ying's POP at the CCAB and jia ying was liek saying next year it will be our turn. and it just happened to be me. =) nervous i was on the parade square, and i could feel my heartbeat getting faster esp when the festive drums were playing. but then everything went well including the weather! =) and we danced and brought music ( i think) to the audience. yay. bm rocks!

then cos mr siao wanted to steal the limelight from teh dm. so when dm finish, we do display technique again. LOL. but then everyone continued to rush into the parade square, depsite us marching. then ppl take photo and all. and suddenyl towards the end, all the first row clarinets gone! LOL. it was messy, but really fun! =) then everything was over, we graduated and will miss this place forever. and thats what 5 days can do. forge really deep friendships! =) so then photo time! have a few photos now. so i'll try to post them.

me and my "twin brother", samuel and sammy! =)

me; yvonne; sammy; nigel

momo with sax, sam with clarinet, ruohan with cornet

the rest of the pics not uploaded. some other time bah. anyways, band today was okay. but after that it was crap. i just realised i had so many things undone because i thought it would be settled while im away for NCO. anyway, i was so pissed and confused, i almost broke down. almost. all was fine eventually i guess. work was okay too, but i miss NCO. lol. wish to meet up with NCOs soon!

mr siao always says that we have ALS. after lunch syndrome. cos we always forget our stuff after lunch. but now, im having ANCOS, after NCO syndrome. =( bye!"

WOW. time pass real fast. Sigh.

2008-11-07T22:49:00.006+08:00

Okay, i dont really like this. I'm too slack. Way too slack. And that's no good. Cos O levels aint over yet. But sigh, I'm already in holiday mood. Tsk tsk.

Went for the 34th NCO today. Was rather interested to see those 33rd NCO members whom we've not kept in touch with. So i kindda lied to Fabian ( i'm sorry =/) that i wasnt coming but i turned up in the end. Its the least i could do for the juniors, to give my support too.

I wouldnt actually agree it was great, but the participants would beg to differ. I guess whats only important from this camp is that they learn something to be brought back to band to use, as well as have fun! It's like a once in a life time opportunity, and I really think its the only good part about band that I have enjoyed in my 4 years in secondary school band. I was just regretful that i dint enjoy and socialise myself more. Nevertheless, we met up again and took some photos. So let the photos speak my words. And i was toolazy to re-arrange the photos, so its from the end of the POP to the beginning. Enjoy!

We 4 rock! hahs. Joan, Sammy, Nigel, Samuel

Iskanda Momo

Nigel, Joan, Samuel

Me and Joan Marie. OMG, i missed her so much! Its been ages!!!

33rd NCO trumpeters

Hi. Ain't in an excellent mood to be blogging here. I would probably only want to vent my frustrations.

Anyway, i didnt know one year has passed. Until Springsfield ask me if i was going for POP tmr. I was like huh?!?!? WTF?!?!?Its tmr?!?!?Okay,so nobody really told me anything much about it. But it's okay. May not even have time to attend. Much to my delight at the thought that i want to. I just dont know who i'll go with in the evening. LOLS.

Came back. Use the comp. Saw those replies on the class blog. It was the above avergae size. But still pathetic eh?I mean, what can I do. I've done every possible thing in my power to accomodate. It just piss me off when people dont appreciate your effort and time spent and wasted on this crap, and come up with some excuses for not attending. For crap's sake. Its our last year, last day,last of everything to be together. For ONCE. Doesnt anything bother you guys at all?

Beatrice was asking me about organising a class chalet.Too tired, really too tired. I doubt i want to go trhough all the pain over again. Its really painful, weary to see people's unethusiastic reaction. After akk the crap that u went through to plan, to organise and to make it a success. It sounds from them, as though coming for these stufff are a burden. Oh please. Try to feel the agony of the organiser.

To really admit it, i didnt one bit enjoyed our class bbq. Yes, it was fun for most of them. But for what cost? I think i spent more time packing up and clearing stuff, and planning, and ordering food, and ensuring that every small bits and pieces are taken care of, rather then spending time to enjoy. Same would be for next weeks outing and a class chalet, if there is.

Okay. I dont know why i'm ranting here in the open. For all to see. Still, I hope these people do something about their thinking. Their attitude totally....

2008-11-04T23:24:00.002+08:00

Hello. Was reading my previous post. I wanted to see what i did wrong or what i did right so that i try to avoid the same mistakes tmr. I really pray this round that i will score a score that will do the teachers who have taught me chinese in one way or another proud. I dont want to dissapoint mr ng like i did with the damn li ti compo and stupid a2. sigh. so i'll end by copying pasting my previous post, the exact same feelings i had 6 months ago.

"MAY 25th! Jiayou people to those taking o level chinese paper tmr. or in less than 9 hours from now or whatever u are counting it. and those taking the paper tmr should be asleep by now. hey, why am i not asleep?!??!?! oh yea, cos i wanna post a quick blog to you guys who are reading -.-

so the big day is tmr. and i havent done much this weekend. i mean seriously, i think i did more when mr ng was around during the weekdays then the weekends without his guidance. but he did send us a short sms to tell us to keep calm always. and i sooooo must do that. i just wanna score well enough not to dissapoint mr ng. i dont care if its an a1 or a2 or b3 or f9. just enough to not dissapoint mr ng. i mean seriously, he's put in so much effort and time on improving my chinese, i sure dont want it to go to waste. For God, for mr ng, for miss tan chye i, for miss lea shu hui and for myself, i am going to do the best i can and hopefully get the results they all want =)) wish me luck"

" 26th MAY! yup, i finally finished probably my last zuowen and chinese paper 2 in my secondary school life. and hopefully it is my last cos i wanna score well enough not to retake. but i didnt write question number -.- meishian says its like whole essay 0. wtf?!??!"

i pray,i pray, that i will not disappoint you, mr ng. wen zha wen da.

2008-11-03T20:26:00.002+08:00

felt so kukoo. i didnt realise that i posted all that crap on my own blog. intended to post on class blog.ah well, so to those 4e1s, u can tag on eitehr tagboard. hahas. i copied paste onto the other side alr.

2008-11-03T19:36:00.004+08:00

Hello all =) been a long time since i blogged so here, i ought to do my duty for the last few times. 4 main things on hand today. Taking this opportunity to say these stuff cos i doubt that we would ever get a chance to.

First, the answer key. Ms ong pass me two sets of papers without answer keys cos the lady forget to print. SO i've uploaded it and you may download it from here. XMS and SCGS.

SCGS http://www.zshare.net/image/50837452fff1027e/
XMS http://www.zshare.net/image/50837525c12a00cf/

Next, its a friendly reminder that there is extra bio lessons next wednesday after our chemistry mcq.Yes i know its kind of sad cos the whole school will be celebrating the end of o's and they'll be like mocking us for staying back for extra lessons and timed prac. But i guess our class is attuned to it already. So yea, bio wednesday timed pract plus those mcqs such as anderson and bpghs that we have not went through. remember.

Third, remember last year we raise like $300 for the painting of the shutters? and it didnt succeed cos somehow the council didnt much look into it and the art club i dont know. anyways, the $300 is still seating in my bank. I dont want to be accused of embezzling funds and i cant return to you guys too cos you guys would probably have forgotten how much the sun is. I would try, however, to do so.SO i need u guys to stay back next wednesday after bio. In the meantime, I'll be passing around this list and you write down how much you've paid. If the sum doesnt tally to what i have, i cant return you guys.So here are a few options. We coudl spend it on a chalet / bbq. We could donate to organisations like the school needy fund or SPCA or ACRES or something of that sort. And theres lots more otehr ways. Its a big sum of money, especially to the poor. SO i need you guys to think thoroughly through what to do with it in case the money dont tally. Then we'll discuss on wednesday. I just need 10 minutes, please, just 10 minutes.

Lastly, we will be celerating our very last lunch with the class. SO i do hope that you guys can make it for this. I know that especially the scholars, you guys have to pack your bags and stuff and are so excited to leave for your home sweet home. Nevertheless, we guys here will miss you and we would like to spend the last lunch with you guys as a class, together. SO here's the plan.

We will end the paper by 9am. We would scream, shout, cheer, set the school on fire (just kidding), throw the chairs, burn the books, slap ourselve to see if we;ve woken up from this mugging nightmare. That would take at the most half an hour. So 930 we end, we get out of school. I thought that we can go for a nice meal at Seoul Garden.At least thats my plan, for now. Any better plans, please feel free to sms me or tag on the tagboard so that i can make any changes that will suit your needs.

"Seoul Garden is an authentic Korean-styled BBQ restaurant that offers our customers a unique self-serving dining experience that will always be remembered. Our young, and young-at-heart customers will always enjoy our authentic & intense meat-marinates, large spread of fresh buffet items and our freshest produce, all in a no-frill, bright and hygienic ambient while they soaked in a vibrant yet noisy atmosphere. Halal certified."

Okay, i wasnt paid to advertise for them. But yea. ANyways, we will be enjoying our lunch from 1130am to 4pm cos thats the lunchtime. I have not been there before, but i herad from friends, sister, Stella, that its a really cool place to eat.Its like the marina steamboat that we went last year, just that its now with aircon, and the quality of food is higher since it will not have any lizard tail or anything. Remember though, that people with better quality of life have higher standard of living. Thus, we have to pay more since we have more economic power. Acoording to the web, its $11.99.I called, to check, and that guy, if hes a reliable source that is, claimed that after the GST and service tax and those stupid ++++++ should be $14.10. But thats because its student price. So please please bring your ic or ex link, which you would, unless you are not taking the o level paper on that day cos we are required to do so.

SOunds expensive? Kindda. But look at it on the bright side. Its time we enjoy ourselves, reward ourselves for having endure this constant mugging all these weeks. And its our very alst meal. Together. As a class. For once. SO yea, well its not compulsory. But i plead that everyone of you all turn up.

So you ask, what do we do between 930 to 1130? That would be a free choice for you. SO long as we meet at MARINA SQUARE #02-08/09 at 1130. Dont be late, cos the food will not be as fresh ( yea what crap) So you guys can just maybe shop around marina square or something? just enjoy ourselves ya? Heres the webbie anyway, http://www.zingrill.com.sg/zingrill/our_restaurant.html

Since it may and hopefull be a big class of 40 odd people, I will have to make reservations. SO, i need you guys to confirm with me, latest by next monday during PHYSICS paper. would you do that for me? Hahas. SO just give me a call, sms me, email me, or tell me on msn if you can make it. Give me ideas, suggestions, opinions if theres anything else that could be done or anything that u guys would like to do after the thing perhaps?

So heres a super long post. I spend time finding info, planning, blogging. Do me a favour and attend this lunch gathering okay? SO just sms me or even tell me on wednesday. I know you guys are reading, so yea. Or if you think calling em is inconvenient. Just tag on the tagboard. Thanks loads.

All the best in the coming exams.

theres a paper in 14 hours time. and i'm TOTALLY not prepared. damn. i dont really like bio for one. and i suck at it. so i'm not surprise if i cannot complete the syllabus by tonight cos i have roughly 8 more chapters to go. sian. say bye bye to c6 and hello to F9.

i'm totally addicted to hsm 3 songs all of a sudden. i ahve utterly no reason why, when the songs are not extremely nice, addictive or special. apparently some of my classmates wanna watch it so i'm gonna watch it for a third time ( i watched once online)

oh well. time to sleep.

2008-10-28T01:01:00.004+08:00

Okay. So I'm using my mum's lappy to blog. i'm going to cut out on all teh caps on the first letter. so yea, my comp crashed. all my data, documents, picture, songs, videos, gone. GONE. G O N E. and thats sad. cos that means i cant plug in my ipod touch forever and ever cos if i do all my songs and vid and photos and what not will be gone. how great.

on the bright side, i cheered myself up by giving myself a lil reward for the stress i'm facing from the o's ( if theres any that is). pathetic me bought one ticket for high school musical. yea, so i watched alone. again. but what can i do. theres no sec 4 in the right mind who would be watching movies at this crucial time. all except me.

show was okay. initially i didnt like it cos it seemed different from the first and second. its like another hairspray. its a forced musical. purposely adding in events to have songs. the first especially was rather natural. but hey, zac effron and vannessa hudgens have become hotter. like gosh, i think they are a great couple. i liked especially the songs and scenes that 2 often sing and dance. kindda kiddy, i must admit. but still, i'm not 16 yet. hahas.

the shows really nice. if you've got time, u should seriously go watch.i dont mind watching another time too. hahas. and i thought it was rather motivational. so i'm going to study my guts out after this show. at least for one day. hahas.

heres a vid that i like most about the show. its like 1am now so toodles.

2008-10-18T23:47:00.003+08:00

I didnt want to blog. But I came upon this photo. It made me think why I'd open this blog again.

Yeah. it made me think what happened a week ago.First, we had this survey thing in the morning of grad day. And we were doing this survey of class leaders and everything when this person said to me: Eh wait, i want to change my option. You didnt do much as our monitor and not a good role model.. ( and the crap continues)

I totally flopped. 4 years and that comment hit me like a rocket. There was more, but I really forgot what that person said. And this wasnt the first time. Theres this group of classmates who always goes against me with the " this monitor dont serve the class" attitude.

I just thought. Had it been worthwhile? I didnt care about whatever award or merit points or whatever. I dont freaking need it. But you guys who had gained at least something from my hardwork could say these craps, totally unappreciating what I do. Hello, who carries newspapers for you guys? Who finds teachers for you guys? Who does all the shit work? Who collects the money? Who have to collect forms like during lesson time and I cant even concentrate on my studies? Who cleared up all the shit? Who always has fun during a party or class bbq and who does the cleaning up?

I'm sick and tired of their stupid unappreciateive comment. Thank God school's over. But when I looked at that pic again, it all came rushing back, hence the need to blog. But something touched me. Mr Poh put that pic into the class vid. And when he played it, and that pic came one, he said : The world's best monitor. I believe I've doen enough for this damn class, to unify everyone. Unappreciative? Never mind. But look, you guys who dont do anything, just keep your damn mouth shut, cos I'd bet you cant do the same as me. You guys dont even know how it feels. And one even had the cheek to say "like real" when Poh said that.

This just makes me piss. I dont know why. Yea, it's some really trivial matter. But still. Sigh. 1 more day left.

2008-10-14T00:34:00.002+08:00

Too lazy to officially blog about my feelings on Grad day. So I'm just copying pasting things that are already found on my class blog. Blame my lazyness. Maybe I should close this blog again.

2008-10-11T23:56:00.003+08:00

I felt that this was a suitable time to re-open my blog. Having MIA-ed for sooooooooooooo long, its time to start blogging again. It was graduation day yesterday. Truly amazing. And thats all i want to blog about. A pity its getting late and I havent got all the pics yet, so i'll blog about it tmr. Before I end this short little post, I just wanna say a big thank you to all the teachers who are reading this and have taught me in one way or another, especially Mr Poh, Mrs Ngiam, Ms Ong, Ms Tan, Mrs Ho, Mrs Raj, Mr Ng, Mrs Jennifer Lum, Ms Lea, Mrs Rita Seah, Mrs Singh. I think they've really impacted me alot, and inspired me to be who i am (not the bitchy character though) and make me want to work hard. And last but not least, thanks 4e1 for every single thing. I guess I cried yesterday during the video partically because I was soft hearted, and very vulnerable to break downs, but more importantly, touched and sad to leave a place where I guess I've put much effort into building a strong unity between us. From groups of friends, to a group of 45 classmates. Its a memory I dont think I'll forget.

"what a journey it has been.. thanks 4e1 for the memories"

080708. 1815pm. I decided to blog again. Was blog surfing for the past hour and came across a blog which has some funny jokes. Googled it and found more. Here's what I think is hilarious:

A recent survey asked 100 sexually active men what they most enjoyed about a blow job. 99.9% of them said, "the 10 minutes of silence"!

Advantages of having an affair with a married woman?They give like hell. They do not yell. They do not tell. They do not swell and there is no wedding bell.

The factory where women are made has been found: It's called "Fatties and Moanies".

Woman's Quote of the Day:"Men are like fine wine. They all start out like grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something with which you'd like to have dinner with."

Men's Counter-Quote of the Day:"Women are like fine wine. They all start out fresh, fruity and intoxicating to the mind and then turn full-bodied with age until they go all sour and vinegary and give you a headache."

A woman once said that a man is like a deck of playing cards. You need:
a HEART to love him,
a DIAMOND to marry him,
a CLUB to smash his fucking head in,
and a SPADE to bury the bastard!

Q: What's the difference between a girlfriend and a wife?
A: 45 lbs.

Q: What's the difference between a boyfriend and a husband?
A: 45 minutes.

Q: Why is the part between the bottom of a woman's boobs and the top of her vagina called 'a waist'?
A: Because you could easily fit another set of tits in there!

Q: What's the definition of a gynaecologist?
A: He is the only fool on the earth who looks for problems in a place where most other people find pleasure!

Q: A woman of 35 thinks of having children. What does a man of 35 think of?
A: Dating children!

Q: What is the similarity between a wife and a chewing gum?
A: Both are sweet in the beginning and become tasteless and shapeless later.

Q: What is the strongest muscle?
A: The tongue. It can raise a woman's hip with just one lick!

Q: Why is the 69 position like driving in rush hour?
A: The asshole is always in front of you.

Q: What is the difference between a panty & a stage curtain?
A: When you pull down the stage curtain, the show is over... but when you pull down the panties, it's SHOWTIME!

A divorced man meets his ex-wife's new husband at a party.
Later after knocking back a few drinks, he goes over to the new guy and asks him: "So... how do you like using second hand stuff?"
The new husband replied: "It isn't that bad. Past the first three inches,it's all brand new."

It's funny how, as we get older, our priorities change.
The other morning I awoke to see my wife standing beside the bed, dressed in very skimpy underwear and holding several pieces of velvet rope.
"Tie me up and you can do anything you want", she purred.
So I tied her up and went fishing.

The BLACKS are what I thought was really funny. And horny of course.

The Seventh Night of July, tonight, now. It'll be over in 45 minutes or so, from the time i'm starting to blog which is 1114pm.I'm sorry for not blogging the past week, as there's thousands of accumulated homework to catch up with.

So Yiching chased me to blog ydae when I went to her place. We shall start from there. Eh no, before that. Meet Mr. iPod Touch.

_PICTURE OF MY IPOD TOUCH-

Okay, now my computer is trying to be an asshole by not allowing me to load the photo that I took of my toy into my comp. So lets find a substitute.

Yup, it's my latest toy and I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy I've finally gotten it at long last. Went SimLim square with mum on Saturday evening to get it. Internet says its 498 but we managedto bargain to 480, with a free cheapskate but yet worth 60 bucks speaker, as well as a screen protector. Good deal eh? Here's the catch. Mum said it'll be mine for free if I get 8 points and below for both my prelims and o level. So i guess i got to start working hard eh? Or i can say byebye to mr ipod. Oh well, gotta also thank dave for helping me get some stuff that i want for the touch, as well as travis. Thanks =)))

So back to ydae. Has church and came back did one composition and went out again. Supposed to go china town to eat some tze char stall that my sis reccommended. But ended up at my aunts place in Serangoon Gardens because her place have extra food -.- and feeling guilty that i rejected going to Yiching's place a day before so as to have family dinner at Chinatown, I took a bus down to Ching's place after my meal at my aunt's place. Present were Minghao, Lihua and Ching herself (obviously). Managed to do some catching up as well as know a little more about what is going on in Band. Have not been returning due to time constarint and I'm utterly sorry. I really want to help them, especially the secondary 1s. So i got to learn how to manage my time. Alot.

Today was rather unfruitful because I spent half my time watching Hellboy 1. Then lazed around and watched some videos since I'm so bored at home. Only managed to finsh Chemistry workbook and the whole chunk of Binomial Theorem questions which I hateeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee to the core. I just dont like Binomial. Worse topic in Amaths. Ever. But oh well. So I was looking through my Chem textbook for answers pertaining to the workbook and I realised that Macromolecule is actually rather easy from the textbook but ms Ong teaches us with alot of extra info like comparing Nylon with Proteins and Teylene with Fats. It got so confusing, me and Chee yew (I'm sorry, should be chee yew and I) were trying so hard to contain our laughther because we find it quite hilarious that she's able to teach a whole chapter in a period but we did not understand.

I've been reading other people's blogs lately and realised that some of my classmates are kind of wierd. I mean like the way they speak when they blog. No offense though. I dont know. Thats my opinion. But I just wondering if some people who reads my blog feels the same way about me too. But I dont want to be a wierdo! Sigh. Thats what you get when you enter the most studious class in the Level. And it sucks. So to all sec 2s out there, unless you want to be a wierdo, or really like science, my suggestion to you is dont enter this stream. Of course triple science has its pro's and cons. But i still dont see the pros. At least for now.

Oh, didnt tell you guys about this. We (4e1 classmates) managed to sneak into an NC16 show - Wanted. In case you didnt realise, I'm still 15. As old (or young) as Ivan or Joesph or Eugene. o.O i just realised I'm still the same age as my those 3 sons. Oh well. Anyways, the movie was great and worth my money. Cathay's still the best with its 6 bucks student price policy. Anws, the show was great I think because of the effects as well as Jolie. Let's talk about her first. Jolie is so hot, that the cinema despite its freezing temperature, was almost like a suana. Okay, so my metaphor isnt very good. But really, she's so hot! Especially when she's in action. And she goes undress in one of the scene. Thats what you see when youre 16 =P Effects was quite good, cos I liked it when the bullet shoort through or when it curves though it's super unrealistic. Bad points? The last part of the plot. Where the "evil" guy admits that he's Wesley's dad. Super cliche. Makes you think you're watching the reanactment of the Star Wars scene whereby Anakin Skywalker was talking to Darth Vader ( or was it Luke Skywalker?) Whichever.

Hellboy 2 is comign out this thursday and Yiching, me and Minhao are going to catch it. Probably at Cathay AMK Hub. Anybody interested?

2008-06-29T21:47:00.002+08:00

29 June! I'll make this really short cos i am chatting with nigel. So i was thinking about what to blog and then i remembered in which one of them involved sammy. the next moment, nigel msned me. then while we were talking, yvonne called. How wierd can this be, that all NCOs just coincidentally come at the same time. Back to the dream.

believe it or not, i had 3 dreams in that short 7 hours sleep. let's begin. the first is saddening. cos i was calling someone and asking him where sammy is or soemthing. in case you dont know, sammy is a really close NCO friend of mine. so the other side of the phone, that guy said that sammy had died. in a canoeing expedition or something. immediately, my heart dropped. it was not only because of the loss of a friend, but because sammy hadnt accepted christ. ever since mr kelvin tan's death, i suddenly feared the day someone close to me die, i want to cherish so much the friends around me because you never know when you may suddenly see them in the coffin like mr tan, and what would happen of them. especially the unsaved. i remember a pastor who said to us last week, that she had a dream that her mum was dead. but she knew it was a sign from God, that God had wanted her to precah the word to the mum and tell her to accept Christ. when i woke up today, i realise it was the same. that God wanted me to preach to sammy, as well as those non christians around me, for i fear losing them one day, forever.

the second dream is super horny. so i'll just make it short. you use your fertile imagine to imagine the details and what really happened. so anyways the second and horny dream was that i was frenchkissing someone. yea, total retard, total horny.

the third dream, now that i look back, is kindda hilarious. i dreamt that my mum's legs srunk so much that she was as short as a toddler. and i had to carry her around like how i carry a baby. and i was quite sad. hahas.

so that was the 3 dreams. but really, the first was really scary because it seemed so real and i was afraid of losing the unsaved. so non christians out there, just remember that i'll be keeping you guys in my prayer constantly, to pray for you that one day, you will be saved. =) and if you need someone to talk to, or want to know more about God, just feel free to approach me ya?

the following contents is rate spiritual so read at your own risk, for it may be life changing =)

as i was watching the 2 and a half hour long narnia: lion witch and wardrobe, it dawned onto me the fact that C.S Lewis was a great author, and that as a christian, all her works were based on God and the bible. Aslan was like Jesus, as he sacrificed himself on the stone table just like jesus on the cross. those evil ones who mocked at him, were like those who mocked at jesus before his died. and the ones who cut his hair were liek those who pricked jesus with the twine crown. then aslan rose, just like jesus did. and the table was broken, just like the tombstone was rolled away by the eartquake that shook. there were so many other parts which were the same, but i really cant remember anything. so for those who watched it on channel 5 eaarlier, you ahve just watched an animal fantasy version of what tooked place thousands of years ago. if aslan is that great, so is jesus. so believ in him =)

okay, out of spiritual context, i dont think i've much to say. too tired. oh oh oh, and hopefully germany wins tonight! =)
