I got a confession.

I fucking hate people who destroy their lives.

Not the smoking kind.

Those self abuse in forms of bloody wrists and fucking eat disorders.

Fucking tired of it.

And to that FUCKER who started this shit when I was in secondary school.

If I find out who the fuck you are.

I will probably land myself in DB.

Actually the likelihood of you reading this and understanding it is close to nil. Just feels FUCKING awesome to find a place to unleash my fury. My book-out mood is fucked now.

Death.

It's strange. I've been thinking about it a lot the last few days whenever I find myself not preoccupied by stuff. Not morbid suicidal thoughts of course. Just thoughts about where we go after we pass on. I admit it scares me a little. Perhaps it's because I do not follow any religious teachings closely and thus, not find a sense of security in the afterlife. How could something that is able to think for itself for the last few decades suddenly slip into non-existence? What awaits us if we do not slip into non-existence? Is there really something or someone waiting for us? What we do not understand, scares us. Perhaps it's human's inability to cope with what awaits us that coerces us into creating theories about reincarnation and other heavenly places.

Religious people out there might start hating me or feel strongly about slamming me about this post. But I'm a free thinker. I believe in a higher being. It's just that I do not tie myself down to a single religion. In fact, religion as a subject intrigues me very much. But this is not a post about my beliefs, but about death.

So if we do die, do we become souls? Drifting between planes of realism and existence, and sometimes take form and be termed as spirits or ghosts? Or are we tied down to our bodies or ashes? It must really suck if that's true, knowing that you're thoughts and feelings still exist but are trapped in an immobile body a few feet underground. No one really knows. Probably explains the spamming of question marks in this post.

O well. Detroit Metal City is out tomorrow. Woo! JAPANESE METAL! BANZAI!

Don't take life too seriously, no one gets out alive anyway.

Just watched Watchmen. Awesome show.

Most of the people I know that have watched it found it stupid and a waste of money. But the concept of the whole movie is amazing. Firstly, it deconstructs the stereotype of superheroes, transforming them into mere humans who sin like every other being. Secondly, it questions the value of human life. *Spoiler Alert* At the end of the movie, the sinister plot is finally unveiled, which involves the sacrificial of millions of lives to save billions from a possible nuclear holocaust. Makes one wonder: Can the value of human life be measured by numbers? Does one life worth less than five?

And the character Rorschach, played by Jackie Earle Haley, is just effing cool. I mean, the rough, raspy voice, his unpredictable temperament, his ever-changing ink patterns on his mask. Just so cool. I might even start talking like him.

So if you can just look past the director's fetish with blue male genitals, and the meaningless after-heroic-act sex, it's a definite must-watch. But you will probably have to think over the movie after you watch it to let it sink in.

Definitely not your usual Superhero movie.

"I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me." - Rorschach

"Humans are no strangers to war. After all, we've been fighting for as long as we can remember. War is all we know. In the past, we fought for Imulsion. We fought for country. We fought for freedom. But that changed after E-day.

For fifteen years, we've been fighting for our very survival against inhuman, genocidal monsters... but it is a fight we cannot continue. Humanity faces extinction unless we end this war now. We had hoped the Lightmass bombing would decimate the Locust Horde, but they survived, and have returned stronger than ever. They've bought with them a force that can sink entire cities. Even Jacinto, our last beacon of hope through all these dark days, is now at risk. Soon we'll have nothing left to defend and that means we have only one option.

Gears, what I ask of you now is not an easy thing, but it is necessary. If we are to survive, if we are to live long enough to see the seasons pass, our children grow, and experience a time of peace that we have never known, we must now take this fight to the locust. We will go to where they live and where they breed.. and we will destroy them!

This is the day we take the battle to the heart of the enemy! This is the day that we correct the course of human history! THhis is the day we ensure our survival as a species! Soldiers of the COG, my fellow Gears, go forth and bring back the hope of humanity!"

One of the best game speeches I've ever heard. From Gears of War 2. Just got my hands on it today. It was a good buy. Hooked onto it now. WOO

2009-03-06T18:49:00.000-08:00

Got my results yesterday. Did much better than I expected. But didn't feel much euphoria about it. Damn tired.

2 years of slogging for one cert that will change my life.
Education system in Spore sucks. Maybe I'm influenced by my bunk mates. But I'm considering going to an overseas university. Heh.

LAN and Mahjong with class peeps after that. Came home 2 hours ago (9am).

POC in 2 days. Hell yeah!

2009-02-20T05:15:00.000-08:00

my bunk's full of fking awesome people.
1 day book out before the next book in, which is supposedly the start of a very "hiong" week. field camp and range.

I've made up my mind.
I ain't wasting no more time.
Here I go again on my own.
Going down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.

Awesome lyrics. And no, I'm not being emo. Well, maybe a little. But the song's really awesome. It's Here I Go Again by Whitesnake. Pretty old song. And the girl in the MV is pretty fine. Those old american kind of hot.

2009-02-13T07:23:00.000-08:00

17 days of confinement. 17 days of utter boredom.

My bunk's full of hilarious people though. That's a plus.
The food's awesome. That's a plus.
The Sgts. are awesome. That's a plus.
The weather at Tekong is awesome. That's a plus.
Nobody really gives a shit about how stupid you look with tucked in shirts and pulled socks. That's a plus.

My coy's littered of interesting-in-the-wrong-way and sometimes-mildly-disturbing people. So that's a minus.
Given the duty to clean the toilet for the whole of BMT. That's a minus. (I mean, you clean it. And it gets dirty. And it seems like you never cleaned it.)

Yea. Tekong's pretty summed up in those few sentences. Hm. Not a lot of things to talk about really.

But everyone was pretty high today during book out. Pretty much ran home from the MRT. Awesome.

Check Clear. ROFL!

JO-EL JO-EL! ROFL!

2009-01-12T06:43:00.000-08:00

Been neglecting this blog AGAIN for a few reasons:

Too lazy.
Been watching K-dramas
Been going out quite a lot
Been playing quite a lot

Give me a break! 16 more days and I will join my brethren in Tekong Island. Woo.
And now that I'm blogging. I'm already bored.

Chalet was pretty fun. Seeing the transformers along Changi Village when we were night cycling was.. interesting. Almost shit-ed in my pants when one particular blond one started screaming for no fucking reason when we cycled past. Siao eh. Then heard about the supernatural encounter from Naad after we reached the chalet. Eventful night cycling! Hope the shocks didn't scare away the peeps who were on their virgin trip.

Going badminton tomorrow. And collecting my money from school. Whoo! For improvement award. Hehe.

2008-12-27T09:11:00.001-08:00

Bah. Freedom. Bet every freakin' teenager wants that. The only difference is the degree of freedom we can attain.

Thought I would be free after A levels. Freed from the mugging to pursuit my interests and pleasures, only to be held back by issues. Shit. Guess I would only truly be free when I'm at Tekong and far away from home. I know I would be home sick. But a few weeks without constant nagging would be refreshing.

And I want to go out. Freakin' bored at home now.

2008-12-24T03:58:00.000-08:00

Just tried M&M Dark Chocolate. The candy coat around the dark chocolate makes it not bitter anymore. :( Sobs.

And I completed GTA IV! Haha! That's 2 games i completed during the Holidays. Now I'm gonna go complete Halo 3 and GoW before 28th JAN!

2008-12-17T09:35:00.000-08:00

Guide to Metal. Hilarious stuff.

Some might find it insulting. But pfft.. it's my blog.

2008-12-15T04:44:00.000-08:00

Not really in a happier place with marshmallow clouds and rainbows yet, but I've decided not to sound like an emo shit. Ha.

Got my XBOX 360! And I just bought a few 2nd hand games from gamers around Singapore. It's really worth it, since you get to knock off more than 20 dollars off the original game for CDs that are in almost mint condition.

And GTA IV is da bomb! So far, I've killed a whole Worker's Union, evaded the police 37 times, done a 40 feet wheelie on a stolen motorcycle, and went around getting into tons of fist fights which mostly end with me shooting the brains out of the people anyway etc etc. Ha! SADIST ALERT!

Started on Halo 3 but will really set out to complete it once I hook up the Box to the internet. I've set my eyes out on ROCK BAND! Just because I saw it playing Enter Sandman when I was walking around Century Square. But still.. WOO! Wouldn't mind Guitar Hero: World Tour either. Hehe. They cost $200+ each though. Sponsors, anyone?

Went out today with LZG, Huacai, Jon and Sze Chun to the Settler's Cafe ( or is it Mind's Cafe) at Tampines Safra. They had an offer on, which was $5.00+ for 4 hours of games which unlimited free drinks (which was limited to Peach Tea and Lemon Tea). Awesome fun! Great way to spend the time.

Douglas just went into Camp today. Hope he's doing okay. Sian. Most of my peeps are going into NS before me. Don't know what I'm gonna do without them.

And I've fallen for Green Apple Vodka. Good stuff! ZOMG! Drank it before I went on the MRT yesterday. Was wondering why so many people were looking at me only to reach home and realise that my face was red due to the vessels dilating. Must've looked like a 18 year old drunkard. Ha.

2008-12-05T05:32:00.000-08:00

~~This blog is CLOSED until I'm in a happier place with more rainbows and marshmallow clouds.~~

2008-11-30T07:08:00.000-08:00

Okay. Here's my long overdue post about S201 chalet.

Was a pretty fun chalet. Had loads of fun. On the first day, met up with the S201 guys + SzeChun's brother for LAN first. Was a little annoyed when the "supposed to be cheaper than Tampines sports complex" LAN shop turned out to have either good but expensive computers or cheap but crappy computers. Whose stupid idea arh?!

Then after the LAN outing and a few conflicts between the brothers over DotA (it's just a game people), we went to eat lunch and made our way to the chalet. Spent the first night gambling away with Mahjong and Blackjack. Learnt Poker from Yingzhen too!

The second day was more eventful with the BBQ and night cycling. Preparing BBQ was a little troublesome but still fun. Watching Alvin blowing the fire through a straw was .. interesting. If he wasn't there we would be eating raw chicken. Mr Max showed up! And cooked for us! Lol!

Then came the night cycling with misfortunes. Compared to the last one, this one was so much more suay and tiring although the distance was much shorter (I think). First of all, we got lost 2 or 3 times. Then Jo's tyre kena puncture so we had to trouble her dad to bring her and the bike back to the chalet. Alvin also kena bumped by a cab at a junction and the driver still dare to kaopei us. Lol! As expected, the last part of the journey, I was too tired to talk much and was consciously telling which leg to pedal. Lol. Fun though.

So yeah. That's the chalet. Gonna kope pictures from Rachel after she posts it up. Hehe.

And I went for my first TKD training today after 5 months. Must be the night cycling and the frequent basketballing. I think my stamina has improved! Wasn't really tired out during circuits. Wasn't really tired out during the kicks. Wasn't really tired out at all. But my back hurt like shit when I was kicking. Damn! I hope it isn't gonna be a permanent injury. Sparred with dear Yifeng. Injured him. SORRY! Sobs. I don't know how to control man. Need to get in touch with sparring. Lost whatever touch I had in the past. Sobs.

And I recently got my 360 after 2 years of waiting. And I have a new monitor to complement it! Haha. Just need to buy one more component and I can fix up the whole system for an AWESOME gaming experience.

Prom on the coming thursday. I'm having last minute thoughts about what I'm wearing. Really tempted to buy a new shirt. Hmm.

That's all folks.

D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh. D'oh.

Well you can dig me up a grave
And try and stick me in the ground
Well you can tie me to the bed
And try and beat me half to death
But you can never keep me down

Well you can stick me in a hole
And you can pray all day for rain
You can shoot me in the leg
Just to try to make me beg
And you can leave me there for days

[CHORUS]
And I'll stay alive
Just to follow you home
And I will survive'
Cause you're my Mississippi Princess
You're my California Queen
Like the Duchess of Detroit
And every city in between
You can slap me in the face
You can scream profanity
Leave me here to die alone
butI'll still follow you home
I'll still follow you home

You can make a couple calls
And tell your brothers I'm in town
Put a bounty on my head
And tell my parents that I'm dead
And hope to hell I'm never found

You can steal me the keys
To your daddy's Cadillac
You can tamper with the brakes
Call it a mistake
And pray I'm never coming back

[CHORUS]

You can dig me up a grave
And try and stick me in the ground
You can tie me to the bed
And try and beat me half to death
But you can never keep me down
And I will survive'
Cause you're my Mississippi Princess
You're my California Queen
Like the Duchess of Detroit
And every city in between
You can slap me in the face
You can scream profanity
Leave me here to die alone but
I'll still follow you home
I'll still follow you home

I'm a few days late but..

A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER! A LEVELS IS OVER!

Yep! It is. Since 18th November, I now roam the streets a free man.

Spent the last 2 days playing basketball, playing LAN, crashing at el-man's house and lotsa DotA. And I've got a Sub Woofer. Hell yeah. Feeling the vibrations of the bass. ROCK ROCK TILL YOU DROP! O.O I can't get enough of it!

Shuli's gone insane.

It's pretty cool to be free from all the assignments and stuff. But I'm left with memories of JC life and a load of stuff to burn/throw/shred/give away. Trouble trouble. But I have 2 months so I can take my time. He-he.

Class chalet this sunday. Going to have an overnight cycling which promises to be more fun than the last one but also more tiring and challenging. I say: Bring it!

It's amazing. No. You're amazing.

2008-11-08T07:21:00.001-08:00

What you laughing at sonny?

I've reached a point in this darn A level period where I don't really give a shit about how I did for my papers.

Okay. Maybe that's too much of an exaggeration.

NOT!

I mean. It's over right? No point in getting all wuss-like just because I might've lost at least 20% marks on each of the damn paper. Look on the bright side.

10% more before you lose the A.
20% more before you lose the B.
25% more before you lose the C.
30% more before you lose the D.
35% more before you lose the E and officially fail.

But even if I fail this paper and waste my 2 years of mindless slogging and cramming stupid information that I don't even plan to use for the rest of my life, so what? Go NS first then see la. Of course, this doesn't mean I'm giving up on the rest of my papers. I do wanna get my grades back without a hint of disappointment. But it's really not the end of the road if you screw these papers up.

O well. 10 days more to the end of this ordeal.

5 more papers.

Chemistry P2.

Economics. (Rawr! Don't come out international trade! *prays*)

Chemistry P1.

Physics P1.

Stupid timetable. Can't they just stuff that Physics P1 into next week? Drag this stupid thing and waste precious time I have left before gearing up and moving out to Tekong.

And I've discovered my love for clowns. Call me sick or what, but I find a certain amount of coolness in pervesifying this symbol of joy and laughter into something full of evil and despair. And no. I didn't get this inspiration from the Batman.

2008-11-04T06:27:00.000-08:00

7 more papers.

14 more days.

As we used to say..

LET'S DO THIS SHIT!

RAWR!

Shuli's gone cuckoo. O.O

Eight more days.

2008-10-25T09:11:00.000-07:00

8 more days.

Getting the jitters. And OKTO is like the best local channel ever. Comedy + Anime + Cartoons. All the good stuff in one channel.

They're airing a show called Palau Hantu. Apparently, it's about NSmen encountering the ghosties on Tekong. And I'm going in next year. I know I would freak myself out with my imagination after I watch it, but I feel like watching it. Because the effects in the commercials didn't look like those cheap kind. SO it might be good. I'm ranting.

And my computer broke down so I'm posting on this laptop now. O well. The main distraction is kind of gone. Sad.

Anyway, 8 days

8 days.

8 days.

ZOMG! O.O

2008-10-10T07:03:00.000-07:00

Today's the last day of school! Aww.

Mixed feelings here. I still remembered PAE, the first few months in MJC. Met a few awesome friends and joined TKD, a group of people that really made me feel comfortable. Then came JAE and Promos. Was already regretting joining MJC. All these seemed like yesterday, yet my life in MJC has officially ended.

I dunno. I was expecting to be really glad that this whole journey, or ordeal is finally over. BUT, during the last assembly, I began to realise that this somewhere where I really met a bunch of great people and had mostly great times. There would be so many things to miss. Going to LAN or basketball and various class outings with 07S201. The crapping and joking by the back row guys. Laughing at the teachers' and classmates' antics. (Not at them) The guy-talks with the TKD guys. TKD trainings, competitions and events (especially during the Chinese New Year Celebrations) Although there were indeed times where I dreaded going to school, with the various tests and exams and SPA trials etc etc, this bunch of great people really made the journey and enjoyable one. Must keep in touch k?

And the shoutouts and performances and small gifts from our teachers warmed my heart. I guess after all the chidings and naggings, they really just wanted us to cross this last lap successfully and smoothly. I guess I would be mugging hard from now on. For my future, to shake Ms Lai's hand and to not let down my tutors.

On the side note, and away from this mindless ramblings, really played my heart out today at the basketball court with the 07S201 guys. A great closure to a great 2 years. Although someone did piss me off pretty much earlier, it was still a great game. Managed to exhaust my body completely and forget THAT stupid thing I did today. Really stupid thing. Would beat myself up if I wasn't that tired.

Argh!

I said goodbye to romance [yeah]
Goodbye to friends, I tell you
Goodbye to all the past
I guess that we'll meet,
we'll meet in the end
goodbye to romance by Ozzy Osbourne

Dance of Death by IRON MAIDEN

Let me tell you a story to chill the bones
About a thing that I saw
One night wandering in the everglades
I'd one drink but no more

I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight
Gazing up at the stars
Not aware of a presence so near to me
Watching my every move

Feeling scared and I fell to my knees
As something rushed me from the trees
Took me to an unholy place
And that is where I fell from grace

Then they summoned me over to join in with them
To the dance of the dead
Into the circle of fire I followed them
Into the middle I was led

As if time had stopped still I was numb with fear
But still I wanted to go
And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me
As I walked onto the coals

And I felt I was in a trance
And my spirit was lifted from me
And if only someone had the chance
To witness what happened to me

And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them
All had death in their eyes
Lifeless figures they were undead all of them
They had ascended from hell

Only an excerpt.

2008-09-26T09:32:00.000-07:00

Post Prelim week is over. Thank goodness everything went pretty smoothly.

Must say I'm satisfied with my Math and Physics results. A little disappointed for Chemistry considering the amount of work I've put in. But I'm that close to achieving my target, so it's not a total loss.

And my GP P2 allowed my GP grade to rise from the depths of hell. Saved my P1 screw up of choosing the wrong question. Heard everyone did pretty badly for that question. O.O

All that's left is H1 Economics. Pretty disheartened after the Post Morten Lectures for Econs. I just want to get a C or a D.

Today was such a slack day. This whole week's been pretty slow. Except the times the class guys went to b-ball and stuff after school, which were awesome experiences. Must play at Tampines West CC again. The sound the chained net makes when you score is such a.. turn on. Lol! Spent like 2 periods today playing Big 2 and Asshole Big 2 with the class people. Well, some of them at least. Most of them were studying away.

And LZG introduced Maple Private Server to me. Haha. So fun to level 18 levels when you kill a snail. Good for people like me who get bored easily and don't want to train on MapleSEA to level 200. 3 days and I'm a Maxed Bishop already. Haha.

Next week is gonna be following the truncated timetable. Spending most of the periods in Lecture Theaters. Gonna be frickin' boring. Only tutorials we'll be having is GP. On the bright side, no more morning assembly and standing at the parade square anymore. But there isn't any PE lessons in the truncated timetable either. Sobs.

It's the last lap for us. Let's turn to our books and push on. After November, we shall all go crazy together.

2008-09-22T05:48:00.000-07:00

This is stupid. MTV is willing to dedicate a day for My Sweet 16 Marathon. About stupid spoilt brats who can't live without their wants satisfied.

YET they cut a Rock AM Ring Metallica Live Concert to a short 30 minutes. The nerve. >.< O well. Most of the concert can be found on Youtube so imma go crazy on the downloading. Here's a good song

Seek.

DESTROY

2008-09-22T05:10:00.000-07:00

Thanks S201 guys. For the cake. It's really great to know that you guys remembered my day. Promise to savor every bite k?

And to all the peeps for the wishes throughout the day: You guys really made my day! Haha. It's been a while since I enjoyed school that much.

Gotta go for my chili crab dinner. Woot. Thanks again people. Haha.

2008-09-21T05:46:00.000-07:00

Reader's discretion. If you're really sensitive about how people express their emotions, don't read on. Wait for the next post.
____________________________________________________________

This ordeal has lasted for 6 eff-ing years.

Been screwing with the whole family over and over again for 6 years. And it seems like you plan to continue your stupid lifestyle.

To doubt your connections to the family. To misinterpret our actions towards you into hatred. Never appreciative of anything. Weeps when you're down. Then gets along well with M&D for the next few days. And then starts shutting us out of your life again. What a bitch.

Don't know how M&D puts up with you. I'm not them. I don't have their patience. I don't have their faith. And yes, what you said was true. My "love" for you is dying (probably dead). I want you out of my life.

Used to blame you for all the things wrong in my life. But I've come to understand it's mostly due to my own screw-ups. But the shit you've put M&D through is unforgivable. To raise their hopes and crush them is just plain selfish.

Fuck.

2008-09-18T07:27:00.000-07:00

Prelims are over. Went LANing with the guys followed by b-ball after Physics Paper 1. Too exhausted to type much.

A7X is coming to Singapore. And I so want to catch them Live. O.O

Gonna catch Die Hard before going to sleep.

2008-09-07T05:05:00.000-07:00

Felt so guilty about neglecting my Blog for weeks. Ha. So I'm here to update >.< Woop di doo. And why the hell are the pictures on my blog so weird. What's with that doll thing. *scrolls down*

Anyway, Prelims officially started last Tuesday with GP. Think I kind of screwed that paper up. Took a leap of faith and did the essay question: Which one do you value more: Beauty or Intelligence. I ended my conclusion trying to sound good and ended up using a metaphor about cake and icing. OMGWTF O.O! Cake and icing! Shoot me!

I'm still suffering from the aftermath of my stupidity.

Tomorrow's the start of the 2nd chapter of Prelims. Physics Paper 3. I'm having last-minute doubts about my preparations, although it seems like there is nothing more I can do. Got so distracted last week with South Park and Korean Dramas. Yoon Eun Hye is so cute, charming etc etc. O.O Must watch more of her. Muaha.

And I finally caught on the Whose Line Is It Anyway craze. Hilarious stuff. I really envy Wayne. His impersonations of Cartman from South Park literally got me ROFL in the middle of the night. What a good way to de-stress.

That's about all I can write. Ha.

Repeats: Yoon Eun Hye is so cute. ZOMG! O.o

Holier Than Thou by METALLICA

The craps rolls out your mouth again
Havent changed, your brain is still gelatin
Little whispers circle around your head
Why dont you worry about yourself instead

Who are you? where ya been? where ya from?
Gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue
You lie so much you believe yourself
Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are

You know not

Before you judge me take a look at you
Cant you find somethig better to do
Point the finger, slow to understand
Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

Its not who you are its who you know
Others lives are the basis of your own
Burn your bridges build them back with wealth
Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are

You know not

Judge yourself before you even think of judging people.
A lesson we should all learn.

2008-08-09T08:49:00.001-07:00

N'day even was a good day.

Went to meet S201ers before going to school to watch Sepet/Gubra. Lai had to give this N'day message and demanded 100% attention. Made us stand at attention so that she could RIP. Read in peace. Kind of sucky way to start a school holiday. O well.

Sepet was good stuff. Quotes "It's a bloody epidemic" when periods were mentioned in the film. Romance comedies are always good, and Sepet especially links reality to the big screen. The un-hollywood and amateur-ish way of filming the movie just made it seem more real and close to your heart. Funny AND touching stuff. Though I don't really get the ending. So did the guy die before or after he made the call? Must watch Gubra next. Hehe.

Anyway, rushed home after Sepet to grab my pants which I stupidly forgotten to bring. Met the Sentosa peeps and was mildly irritated when it took them more time to make their way to school then it takes for me to go home and back. So we all dilly-dallyed a little more, eating our lunch and going NTUC. Finally left Pasir Ris at 12 plus and reacher Sentosa Beach at 2 plus. Kinda sad cos' I wanted the sun.

Played all kind of games. Started with volleyball which was more of a laughing affair. Moved on to captain's ball, then soccer, then swimming in the sea, and rounded things up with a relaxing round of basketball. Got buried to my knees in sand by the people. Diao. It's kinda tiring for them to bury half a 169 person. Ha. :D

Lazing around in the sea was good stuff. Slacked. Swam. Scared YingZhen by grabbing her leg. Didn't even care about the water ghosties that supposedly come out during 7th month. I was there to let loose. But the sea water was CRAZY salty.

Went to Vivo for dinner and reached home at 10pm. That's that for Eve. What a blast. Would have enjoyed myself more if I didn't keep thinking about the amount of work I had to get done during the holidays. A levels truly suck to a large extent. That's my thesis statement for this ordeal.

Things change huh. Well fuck it then.

Headline news on Yahoo Singapore: "SBS Transit, SMRT submit applications for fare adjustments"

Wheels on a bus go round and round. Price of the fare goes up and up.

Been a while since I blogger. Cos' I've been really busy studying for Prelims. 30 more days O.o. I've made it my goal to complete every single Time Trial from Chemistry Physics and Math on the day I got it. Proud to say that I've achieved it till to date.

Something happened during school yesterday. Really makes me reflect upon myself. Am I that big of an ass? A combination of mean and rude?

My class tee is so screwed. In a funny and interesting way. What was to be my name above the already-randomly chosen number 56 was supposed to be "\m/". You know as in the rocker's thing.

\m/

Apparently, the font that was chosen didn't support the front-slash a.k.a "\". So it turned out like "m/". Does this gesture look familiar?

1. Place your hand in front of you.
2. Close your thumb, middle finger and ring finger. You get \m/.
3. Close your pointing finger. You get m/.
4. Place the little finger to the edge of your lips.

You become..

Evil yes. Rockin' no.

My internet's up and working again. About time.

Though I don't really understand how your birthdate would determine your personality and future, these predictions are somehow surprisingly true each time. O well. For the most part at least.

Shuli's an eff-ing wuss.

Song lyrics | Afterlife lyrics

2008-07-08T06:23:00.000-07:00

Bah. I've gone back to the dull life of a student. The 3-day break after the exams were short but well-spent at S201 chalet at Pasir Ris.

I guess it was a good chalet for a pretty last-minute one. The BBQ was bought on the DAY of the BBQ, at the NTUC at eHUB. I swear, the new eHUB is awesome and lives up to its name. It has like practically everything. I think even if it pours heavily at Pasir Ris for all 3 days and rendering outdoor activities useless, the days could still be spent in the air-conditioned mall with its bowling alley, pool-place, arcade, cinema and restaurant(s). And I learnt to count "tai" for Mahjong. And we have enlightened HuaCai about this beautiful game. Woot. And I introduced Polar Bear to the guys and they are quite hooked to it. Crazy Psycho Game. Lol.

But the highlight of the chalet for me was probably the night cycling around the whole of the east side of Singapore. We set of at 12am sharp after YingZhen left for home in her mom's car. The gang, 7 guys (Edwin, Jason, Douglas, JohnHo, Alvin, HuaCai, ZhiGuan) and 1 girl (Josephine) were off into the darkness of the night. Muaha. Who knows what lurks in every dark corner. Lol. Random-ness.

Message from Alvin after the chalet:

Yo people, we did a really great job just now. According to google earth, we covered 62.02 km in 8hrs. Average speed is thus 7.753km/hr. the furthest for me.

And for ME too. 62.02km is a crazy distance for an amateur like me. But I guess the distance explains the fatigue i was feeling for the last part of the journey. The route is as follows: Pasir Ris -Tampines-Bedok/Bedok Reservoir-East Coast-Esplanade/SingaporeFlyer-Bugis-East Coast-ChangiAirport-Changi Beach-Changi Village-Pasir Ris.

Crazy STUFF! I was pretty psyched in the beginning, and was running on ecstasy (as in excitement and stuff) for the first half of the journey. Became tired and grumpy when we reached back at East Coast for the second time. And then adrenaline got me going throughout the last part of the journey home. We saw a sign before the LONG 6km road along Changi Airport that said "Lights would be turned off from 12am to 6am" or something like that. I was thinking FuckNo! What the hell? 6km in darkness?

And the muscle cramps were not helping. But the road at changi turned out pretty ok, though it was dark and buzzing with mosquitoes. It was all quiet and all we could hear were the soft cha-chings of our bikes and the mandarin pop music played from Alvin's phone. Kept chanting songs in my head to take my mind off the cramps and the dark. Mind over matter! Muaha.

Well, so that's that. Back to old boring school life. Let's make the long distance thing a tradition at S201 chalet! Kudos to everyone, especially to Josephine, being the only girl and all.

And we're getting a CLASS SHIRT at last. Red and Black. Awesome. Sounds sexy.

2008-06-30T06:06:00.000-07:00

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
this is our fate, I'm yours

2008-06-18T06:53:00.000-07:00

Here's my long overdue post about happenings during the holidays.

Had my TKD farewell BBQ cum chalet at Downtown East on the 2nd week of the holidays. Was having mixed feelings during the Dual Exco meeting with our predecessors. Both nostalgia and relief mixed up together made me feel sick so I decided to keep my gab shut for most of the time. To the next batch of EXCO, good luck ;). Overall, the BBQ was great. Got to know the J1s better and realised they are quite a bunch of nice people. My kind of people. Lol. Later on pool-ed at the new pooling place near Downtown East. Lost badly, and ended up the biggest loser. Aww. Think I flushed whatever "skills" I had away. O well.

Stayed over the at the chalet with 8 J1s with me being the only J2. Passed on the Polar Bear tradition and we played and chatted all night long. Freaked myself out about the ghosties at 4am and slept at about 5am-6am. Not a pleasant doze cos' I couldn't get comfortable. Ha. Trudged home with some of the peeps at about 6.30 am and fell asleep at 7am at home.

I was pissed-offly woken up at 11am by the stupid drilling outside my house. Realising I couldn't sleep anymore, I decided to quickly urge Doug to rally S201 peeps to go LAN-ing. Walked in the shop tired and vomiting due to an overearly dose of unhealthy Big Breakfast from Mac's. But came out refreshed cos' the games that day was so good.

Also met up with some of the 4E guys for street soccer! Was so good seeing their familiar faces after 0.5 - 1 years of non-contact other than the occasional Hello on MSN. We were so psyched to play even the heavy rain during the whole day didn't stop us from playing. Umbrellas used to shield us from the rain were soon abandoned when we started getting high. (on soccer, not drugs). But playing in the rain has his setbacks too. It's not the cold or the possibility of getting sick. It's the disgusting wet socks and shoes after the rain. Screwed my BATA shoes over and it's officially un-wearable unless I don't mind walking around with my shoes as a biological weapon of mass destruction.

Recently went for the 2nd National Poomsae Category with Nad. Us being the only from Meridian competing. -.- Our category had only 1 other team, and we came in second with a score of 8.033. O well. Good job NTU team. :D

Been to el-man's house a few times during the hols. Tried GTA4 and Halo3 both on Xbox Live. I'm so envious. I WANT IT! Yet some factors are making me NOT WANT IT! So I'm sort of in a dilemma now.

And I've used the holidays to catch up some of the movies that I've missed out. Got my hands on Jumper, Kung Fu Panda, The Spidewick Chronicles, LOTR Trilogy, Hulk, Be Kind Rewind, Horton, Scrubs Season 1-7 etc. And I've finished all of them! HAHAHA!

I'm also a proud owned of a Creative ZEN now. It's so much more user-friendly than my old MP4. The screen's bigger. Picture quality is better. The new 2+8GB totally trashes my old 2GB MP4. But I'm having problems loading videos in. When I get around that problem, it would be my portable movie house. Muaha.

Spent most of my hols, mugging, mugging, mugging. Mr Max Theory: The more you mug, the less stress you become. True. Lol.

Going gaga over Airbourne. They're like ACDC. But have their own unique pros that make them stand out. So nice.

Stand Up for Rock n' Roll by Airbourne

Alright people welcome to the show
Are you ready to rock are you ready to go
Yeah we've got what you want and we've got what you need
So get your arse down here n' let your ears bleed
C'mon drink your beer and drink your wine
Let's have a good time
We're ready, so get ready
We're gonna rock, rock tonight

Stand up for rock 'n' roll
Stand up for rock 'n' roll
Stand up for rock 'n' roll
Stand up for rock 'n' roll

Forget about the neighbours let em cry all night
Yeah it's about time that we set them alight
If you've got a match then we've got the gas
Let's start a fire and have ourselves a blast
C'mon drink your beer and drink your wine
Let's have a goodtime
We're ready, so get ready
We're gonna rock, rock tonight

Stand up for rock 'n' roll
Stand up for rock 'n' roll
Stand up for rock 'n' roll

Stand up for rock 'n' roll
Stand up for rock 'n' roll
Stand up for rock 'n' roll

Scream Aim Fire by Bullet for My Valentine

Kill your enemies,
My brothers dead around me,
Wounds are hurting
Death is creeping for me,
Smoke is blinding
Hearts are pounding
Chaos soon ignites
The call is made
It's one for all
Will I meet thy maker

[x3]Over The Top Over The Top
Right Now It's Killing Time
The Only Way Out Is To Die

[x2]God Has Spoken Through His Conscience
As I scream aim and fire
The death toll grows higher

Fuck this battlefield,
The bullets shatter round me,
Bodies falling,
Voices calling for me,
Limbs are flying,
Men are crying,
Such a hurtful sight,
The call is made,
It's one for all
Take no prisoners

[x3]Over The Top Over The Top
Right Now It's Killing Time
The Only Way Out Is To Die

[x2]God Has Spoken Through His Conscience
As I scream aim and fire
The death toll grows higher

[x2]SCREAM!!AIM!!FIRE!!!

[Solo]

[x3]Over The Top Over The Top
Right Now It's Killing Time
The Only Way Out Is To Die

[x2]God Has Spoken Through His Conscience
As I scream aim and fire
The death toll grows higher

[Shotgun Cocks]SCREAM!!AIM!!FIRE!!!

Awesome song. Go see their music video. Seriously. Even if you don't like screaming and crazy headbanging, the music video itself is nice enough. Just turn off the volume if you start getting nauseous.

2008-05-22T08:04:00.000-07:00

So many things have happened lately.

Firstly, TKD stuff.

Inter-JC TKD Poomsae Competition came and went quickly on 18 May. Woke up early, jumpy and all and met the club at Bedok to trek to our competition site. This year, VJC dominated all the categories, and we managed to clinch fourth overall. Good job guys. Hope you guys take this as a good experience. After all, for many of us, it's our first time competing in any competition.

And we recently announced the new EXCO to the J1s. Hope they continue our legacy and bring the club to greatness and years of uber-pwnage. Lol.

And there are only a few official TKD events left before we step-down. To be accurate, only one actually. Which is actually just our step-down on July 2nd, which is BBQ at some beach or coast in Singapore. Damn. Gonna miss the club. All the random MacDonald dinners, all the brotherhood, all the chingay-ness, all the sometimes-a-lil-unproductive-but-nonetheless-fun meetings. Good times.

I remember the time when i rent for a committee position. My rally lines went along the lines of "making all the members proud of being in TKD". I hope I held on to my promise.

And holidays are being pretty sucky at the moment.

Cos' E-learning's being a bitch. Slow, unwilling to load, and a totaly unproductive waste of time. Why won't they realise that teachers are the only things that are keeping me in line. Replace them with laptops equipped with MSN, Youtube, and a whole season of Scrubs, and I would not even bother going to IVLE to access the modules. Just get Nicholas to send me screenshots of the slides.

How.. productive.

Well, at least the school's management realised something was wrong with IVLE, and removed the ridiculous timetable for e-learning and made e-learning accessible for the whole of the holidays.

Just planned my study plan. Apparently, I have about 7 days for each subject, excluding GP. 7 days to collate notes for J1 and J2 topics, memorise definitions, formulas then practice them. I'm so screwed.

Currently hooked up to Scrubs. Finished Season 6 a few days ago. And finished Season 3 today. It's witty, and has so many insights of different kinds of love from different kind of people to different kind of people. Now I understand why SL made such a big fuss about it. Good stuff.

Okay. One of the longer posts in awhile. Thou have NS Check up tomorrow. So will be going off.

Shuli. Out.

Sorry, influenced by Seacrest after watching American Idol 2 hour finale special.

Creativity

2008-05-13T05:46:00.000-07:00

Musicians are so creative.

For example, give them a metal song like Master of Puppets. And they start playing it entirely on cello, remix the solos, and even Spongebob Squarepants have changed it to a Campfire Song.

But I can't afford to be creative. Not in life. I mean, how creative can you get? Your life route is pretty much planned out once you were born. You shit in paper underwear for the first 2 years of your life, learn to walk, go to school, experience puberty, go to college, go to higher education, find a job, find a partner, get a few kids, slog your life away while watching them grow up, then see your grandchildren if you are lucky and still alive, and then snuff out.

No creativity at all.

If only I could step out of the norm. You know, just take a backpack and go hitch-hiking randomly, surviving on simple communicational skills and getting the occasional odd jobs to sustain my hitch-hike activities.

Would be a much more interesting life. O well. Not that I'm complaining with my life at the moment. Just a pretty random post.

Competition in 5 days, and I'm FREAKING out. Woop di doo.

2008-05-10T09:39:00.000-07:00

Feeling crappy.

Not looking forward to 21st May.

Well, on a lighter note, going out on Vesak Day. O yeah.

2008-05-09T02:29:00.000-07:00

Well I can't explain why it's not enough, cause I gave it all to you
And if you leave me now, oh just leave me now.
It's the better thing to do.It's time to surrender
It's been to long pretending.
There's no use in trying,
When the pieces don't fit anymore, pieces don't fit here anymore

Okay, everyone stand back. Shuli's going emo.

Ha.

New Blogskin

2008-05-06T01:43:00.000-07:00

New blogskin. Finally decided to change the Master of Puppets blogskin because it kinda scares some people. Makes me look evil or something.

Super exhausted today. Since I stayed up super late to finish my Math Sampling tutorial to 2am. Came to school like a zombie. And then survived the day on pure adrenaline. And I failed physics again. Got a single digit mark accompanied by a "I'm disappointed in you, Shuli!" remark.

Aren't we all?

O well. I'm really gonna buck up after I step down, although I really don't want to. CCA's kind of the only thing that's keeping me in school actually. What else is there to look forward to?

And I just concluded that I'm a mean teasing bastard. I tease people, who I don't really like. And although it sorts of makes people laugh and makes me feel good, it's downright.. mean. Some habit I've had since .. forever. O well.

Anyway, this mean teasing bastard got a physics SPA to study for or he's gonna get another I'm-disappointed-in-you remark that he don't get to see.

Ciao.

2008-05-04T07:27:00.000-07:00

Was browsing Youtube and looking for interesting videos. Got hooked up to watching Metallica Live @ Seattle 1989 videos and left my H1 Economic International Trade notes lying on the bed.

The videos are super intense. Crazy good stuff. How I wished I was living in the past.

Locked up at home the whole day and turned the air-conditioners at home to full blast. I swear Mother Nature's gone effing mad. It's burning.

2008-05-03T09:18:00.000-07:00

Suddenly felt so tired during lunch with the TKD people. Damn. Getting tired so easily and having back pains. I'm getting old.

'Shuli's a wimp!' Points and laughs*

2008-05-02T09:36:00.000-07:00

Cool stuff. It's my phone's theme! Fight For Kisses!

2008-04-30T07:42:00.000-07:00

Been a roller-coaster ride of emotions in the past 2 weeks

Have done things I'm not proud of. And not said things I should have.

And I'm regretting it.

Anyway, today was Interview day for the J1s who were running for TKD EXCO. Time really flies. Seemed like yesterday when I was sitting at the study benches, waiting for our interview with the group of people I didn't know I would become so close with. Our separation would be so bitter sweet. So cheers.

To all the trainings we had together.

To the successful CNY performance we all did together as a club.

To all the crazy times with the Chingay.

To the fun times we had at TKD Chalet.

O well, at least we would see each other in school. 2 more weeks to step down.
Let's leave a legacy behind before we leave. Gambatte TKD '07. For Inter JC Poomsae Competition.

-sigh- :)

2008-04-21T06:03:00.000-07:00

Today was my NAPFA.

And I managed to get a SILVER!

Thanks to RedBull from Jason, and 201, Huimin, Samantha and the girl who kept saying "Go Number 45!" Lol! Woo.

No more early 2 months. Good luck to the rest who need to retake or those who haven't taken! Gambatte!

El-man and his fetish for Engrish!
XD

It's Not Love

2008-04-20T00:33:00.000-07:00

It's Not Love by Dokken

I told you I had to leave, I had my reasons,
I said that it hurt to stay, the way that I'm feelin'

(It's not love) That left you standin'
(It's not love) That left you cold,
(It's not love) Misunderstandin,
Only a mistake, theres nothin' left to take,

Why baby why
Did you make me let you go and leave you so lonely,
Why baby why
Did you have to hold on, you know it's not love anymore......

I gave you your last chance, but you didn't believe me,
You can't keep me, satisfied, they way that you treat me......

(It's not love)
Tellin' you to be this way,
(It's not love)
Saying you could never change,
(It's not love)
When I told you is he putting you down, down, down down.....

(spoken two voices)
"So what do ya wan't?"
"I wan't you."
"You can't have me, well, maybe just tonight,
"Dear not just tonight I want you forever"
"No, no I can't no"
"I gotta have you"

No way, I told ya!!!!!

(It's not love)
Why baby why
(It's not love)
Why baby why...

Nice song that I dug out of my collection.

Love It When You Call

2008-04-20T00:17:00.000-07:00

Love It When You Call by The Feeling

I found a switch
Turned it on
Hit the ditch
And carried on
I was so near
Now you’re so far
Are you quite sure
Just who you are

O IIIII
O you could chose a friend but you don’t seem to have the time
O IIIII
I wonder if you ever get to say what’s on your mind
O take a little time, take a little time

I love it when you call
I love it when you call
I love it when you call
But you never call at all
So what’s the complication it’s only conversation
I love it when you call
But you never call at all

Remember me, I used to be the best time buddy
Who you couldn’t wait to see
But getting old, it takes its toll
And hearts getting broken lead to people growing old

O IIIIII
Im flipping with a coin that’s got a tail on either side
O IIIIII
Im gonna be the one who makes you stop and realise
You could have it all
We should have it all

I love it when you call
I love it when you call
I love it when you call
But you never call at all
So what’s the complication it’s only conversation
I love it when you call
But you never call at all

Yea I wonder where you been
Yea I wonder who you seen
And I hope you find your train
When you do a living and hope it’s all it seems

I love it when you call
I love it when you call
I love it when you call
But you never call at all
So what’s the complication it’s only conversation
I love it when you call
But you never call at all
______________

O so true. Ha. I'm loving my new keyboard. It's a lil small but it's o so smexy.
Got NAPFA tomorrow. Praying for my legs to not die on me.

*prays*

2008-04-18T09:21:00.000-07:00

Just took some random online quiz about the seven sins I've commited. And here's what it says.

Your sin has been measured. You have committed many sins, but Wrath is the mortal sin that has done you in. Just below, discover your full sinful breakdown and learn what it is about you that codemns you to hell.

O surprise. Like I didn't know I have a short fuse. *rolls eyes*

Went to the area outside Bio Lab in MJC today, during the Colosseum to train for competition. Fun Fun. Lol.

2.4km run on Monday and I'm trying to get optimistic about it. Been reading online tips about it, but it's too late and I'm too lazy. Gonna let thigns be and let nature takes it course.

..

2008-04-15T03:26:00.000-07:00

Okay, I don't normally smell bad, even after perspiring hella lot. But when I DO stink, it's really extreme. For example, yesterday after training, I wore my PE shirt and stunk the hell out of people in TKD and on the bus. Took 4 different deodorant (Amir's, Huimin's, Syaf's and Jerome's) to minimize the smell. Super embarrassing.

Anyway, just came home from Chemistry extra lesson. Supposed to be home at about 3, but ended up home at 6 due to the extra lessons. I don't know what to feel about it. It dampens my mood at first, but it also seems to be the only period in the whole week, when S201 goes crazy and gets high.

Like a bunch of crazy people at the asylum. He he.

And, though I really suck at Chemistry, its tutorials are the only one that I don't feel bored. Maybe because I'm mentally challenged. Lol. -.-

Inter-JC Competition coming soon. Want to make our mark in the school. Let's do it MJTKD!

GAMBATTE! \m/ >.< \m/

Movie Marathon - PW Results - LAN

2008-04-11T07:04:00.000-07:00

Attended the 2008 Movie Marathon organised by the Chinese Cultural Society on Thursday night. 5 movies were aired. 1. Warlords - Which was one of those bloody gory ancient war movies which I love because of the gore and my fetish with hairy men in full armor pouncing on each other on a field. 2. The Secret - Jay Chou movie which I found okay, but abit confused about the ending. 3. 200 Pounds Beauty - A super funny korean show about a 200 pounds ugly female singer 4. Kung Fu Dunk - Which I can't comment about because I fell asleep and lastly 5. CJ7 - Another stupidly hilarious Steven Movie which almost brought me to tears. Quite touching.

Anyway, collected my results and I was O so happy to find out that all my group members achieved As for PW. I can now die in peace. LOL! Kidd.

Also played LAN with the S201 Back-rowers, which wasn't very satisfying

I should be sleeping.

Had my Grading today, and though it wasn't what you called strenous activity, my body seems to be demanding sleep for every single exertion of strength.

But sparring with SongLeng was fun, and a lil' exhilirating. Woo.

And I should be sleeping.

Cos I need my energy for tomorrow.

I have PE, which is probably gonna be boring 2.4 trainings. Stupid.

Training, which is 2 hours of panting and stuff.

And 100m Heats. Believe it or not, I got in with a timing of 14 seconds. Even the J1s are faster than me. I'm so gonna get trashed tomorrow. Ha! POSITIVE THINKING! Never underestimate the miracles of positive energy. Something SongLeng said today. 13-14 secs tomorrow. C'mon!

O YEA!

and we're getting oh, so distant. i'm such a wimp.

P.S I SOO LOVE MY M.O.P BLOGSKIN!

Post Mortem

2008-04-04T07:15:00.000-07:00

Got all my MBT papers back already. Disappointed with everything except GP (hehe). Way below what I expected. Must refrain from gaming so much from now on. Or I'm gonna be some 40 year old unemployed fat dude in front of my PC 24/7 in years to come.

Well, need to do a lot of stuff during the weekends. Do the TM Current Affairs Project. Go for grading. And this, coupled with Physics HELP Package and Chemistry Ionic Equilibra (Part 2) tutorial. Did my Math Poisson Tutorial just now, but barely managed to do any question at all. Once again, I'm stumped at math.

Aah. Can't get into the studying mood now. Just wanna keep playing though I know it means throwing what's left of my life away. And NS Check-up next month. NAPFA in a few more weeks. And I still can't run. I'm screwed. -..-

Been looking through DeviantArt drawings on Defense of The Ancients. (I'm obsessed, I tell you.) And damn! Nothing turns an avid artist amateur on more than looking through pages and pages of well-coloured, well-drawn pictures. So darn beautiful. I seriously wanna learn photoshop. Get some of my pieces coloured, cos' they just look so dull without colours. And I need to learn to draw females soon too, then I can start on designing the Class T. Bum-er.

And I'm finding it harder to smile and not be cynical by the day. -.-

Rock Never Dies.

2008-03-28T05:39:00.000-07:00

An extract from the back of the Live After Death Iron Maiden DVD:

"In August 1984 Iron Maiden embarked on their longest tour ever, 193 concerts around the planet, playing in over a hundered cities to over a million fans in North American alone. For this the band had created their most theatrical show to late with a spectacular Egyptian themed stage set based on the band's critically acclaimed "Powerslave" album which had been released earlier that year. After four previous studio albums and extensive touring for the preceding five years that the band decided it was time to record a love show, and this, in 1985, became the legendary LIVE AFTER DEATH full concert video and vinyl live album."

Ah. Rock never dies. (quotes el-man) And what's so good about Iron Maiden? It's all about the music. \m/

School starts.. again.

2008-03-25T06:40:00.000-07:00

So school starts again after the SHORT break after March Block Test. Got back GP P1 and Physics today. Physics was a little disappointing but GP was pleasantly surprising. He-he.

Anyway, went to el-man's house to watch an Iron Maiden DVD: Live After Death. Man, their live performances are CRAZY. Nice backdrop, cool mascots, pyroeffects, lightings etc etc. And the bassists signature rifle/guitar move. Cool. Haha.

Played Viva La Pinata. I kinda understand why the ratings were so good. It's a good game, if you were still young and innocent. But if you're turning 18 and have been exposed to gory shoot-em-up games, Viva La Pinata just seems.. stupidly amusing or amusingly stupid.

And el-man showed me a really disturbing site.

It's a site where people believe in the existence of other life forms.
.

.

.

.

.

Life forms that exist in another dimension.
.

.

.

.

.
Some say they live in another planet in another solar system.
.

These life forms are..

POKEMON! O.O Wtf?!

Another perfect example on how the mass media has really screwed up and fried our brains. The people of the Pokemon Believer forums probably photoshop pokemon into random scenery photos and take marijuana to make themselves believe that the pokemon are actually there.

Oh my god! A legendary Groudon! If only pokeballs existed like pokemon do! Wait. Why isn't it moving?

Here's a link if you are interested: Pokeclipse

Maybe there are some pedophiles out there who use this site to brainwash kids about the existence of pokemon, gather them for a secret field trip to see some strange lair of pokemon, then show them their own "pokemon". -.-

And according to them. It seems like there are some people who believe in the Digimon World! But that's okay. We all know THAT exists. Stupid pokemon believers.

Cylcing outing!

2008-03-21T05:24:00.000-07:00

Went cycling with the guys. Actually, only Alvin, Jason and me turned up. Many of them couldn't make it. And douglas sprained his leg so he couldn't come. So.. pity.

Was fun. Cycled from East Coast Park all the way to the Singapore Flyer then to the Esplanade. I think they wanted to cycle further. But due to the fact that I was riding a rented bike and time is literally money, we had to shorten our trip. I want my own BIKE!

On the bridge. See the noob cyclist behind? Such a noob! lol!

Scraped my hand on the wall and caused a disgusting tear on my palm. Bled the whole way back while we were cycling along the crowded roads of the city. Proud of my battle scars. LOL! Kidd. Got a few pek-chek looks from the pedestrians. Haha. Well, the roads are meant for everyone. Lol.

Hope to go again cycling again. This time with my own bike.

And thanks to Jason for tompang-ing me back and fro. Haa. Though it still looks pretty darn gay.

Pakour meets Soccer

2008-03-20T11:27:00.002-07:00

Block test is over. Time to pursue things I like. Maybe I would start to learn to do pakour soon. It's really cool, though it is pretty dangerous. There's this dude in Singapore that is a pakour wanna-be and failure yet puts his video on youtube. Hmm. Wanna surpass that. But need to be more.. jumpy. Hehe.

Is it time? Hmm.

2008-03-14T09:32:00.001-07:00

Need a laugh after mugging for March Block Test? Catch Ali G on youtube. The picture should be enough to tell you it's funny sh!t. Ali G looks familiar? That's because you've watched Borat you sick people. >:) But he isn't filming a documentary this time. He's a bad ass gangster Yo! But viewer's discretion, contains crude, vulgar humour. Advisable to be 18 and above.

But to all the people who can't wait for their birthday, ignore me and just go ahead. Funny stuff.

MBT in 3 days. Ends in 6. :D

Glutton. :D

2008-03-11T09:03:00.000-07:00

I'm guilty for committing a sin everyday for the past 17 years of my life. Gluttony.

But I'm blessed for being a glutton while staying in the "acceptable" weight category without much effort. Just ate satay and carrot cake at 12.am in the morning. Nothing like a good supper to keep one's mind alert. Hehe.

Maybe I'll be the next Uncle who goes around getting good food for free on MakanSutra. Come to think of it, maybe I'll have that as my dream job. Food tester. All you do is taste food, and get paid. Now THAT's life.

Gonna turn really unhealthy if this trend continues, but I'll care about that later on in life. Ha.

Vertigo

2008-03-09T05:55:00.000-07:00

Spinning around. Many people get vertigo for a short time if they spin around fast. For example, on some playground or fairground rides. Basically, the brain gets bombarded with nerve messages from the semicircular canals in the inner ears due to the constantly changing position of the head. The brain can't cope with the constantly changing nerve messages. Symptoms usually settle soon after the spinning stops, but in some people the symptoms can take several hours or longer to subside.

That's the reason I feel nauseous after trying out my turning-360-backhook-turning combination. Good to know I'm not weird.

Just saw another remake of Rihanna's Umbrella again on MTV. This time by a band called Lillasyser or something. It was a rock version, not the metal growling kind by that dude on myspace. Someone go make a techno version or something. Ha.

Going to start on a TJC preliminary examination paper for practice. GP examination tomorrow. Hope I pass it. Get a D at least.

Mugging starts

2008-03-08T07:54:00.000-08:00

Mugging starts. Finished compiling notes for chemistry and read through the topics twice. Going to practice and put what I've learnt to practice on Monday after GP.

Plan for the whole of next 2weeks:
Sunday: Chemistry Practice and GP Revision.
Monday: GP Examination and Chemistry Practice
Tuesday: Mathematics Revision
Wednesday: Mathematics Mock Paper and Practice
Thursday: Physics Revision
Friday: Physics Mock Paper and Practice
Saturday: Economics Revision
Sunday: Economics Revision
Monday: Economics and Physics Examination
Tuesday: Mathematics and Chemistry Examination
Wednesday: Sleep and slack for the whole day.
Thursday: Do random stuff.
Friday: Do random stuff.

Going to end this post. But before that here's a cool video of a live performance of Highway to Hell.

Woo. Unite the world with rock and roll!

Ha.

Living up to my fucking name

2008-03-07T08:06:00.000-08:00

Didn't really want to go to school today, but had to because I needed to get back my MT A Level results.

And the results were.. very un-S201-ish, I guess. Was getting really high and motivated watching my TKD seniors going up to shake Principal Lai's hand for getting 3H2 Distinctions and especially when Mao Tian was announced the top student for the science faculty. (Congrats to all the seniors, you imba people) But all motivation was gone when I trudged out of E2-1 after I've gotten back the MT results. They weren't bad, not to the point I had to retake my Paper this year or drop to CLB. But they were just very disappointing. I was really expecting something more when I left the hall last year.

Well, I've something to work towards to now. Which is getting to shake Ms Lai's hand next year. 3 H2 Distinctions. *prays*

And things have been pretty sucky lately. In fact, now I have NO reason NOT to be an emo. School, responsiblities, family. I guess I'm living up to my name. Shulimo. Ha.

And I'm feeling so eff-ing hopeless right now.

Well, on a lighter note, just finished writing concept maps for the organic chemistry's 8 disgusting chapters. Alkanes, alkenes, arenes, halogen derivatives, hydroxy compounds, carbonyl compounds, carboxylic acid and their derivatives and nitrogen compounds.
A not bad start for what's more to come during the March "Holidays". Should start calling them Muggidays or something. Definitely no holidays for J2s

Gambatte my people. Signing off.

Tired

2008-03-04T01:26:00.001-08:00

March Block Test in less than 2 weeks! And I haven't started mugging for it yet. I guess I'm s-c-r-e-w-e-d.

My World by SR-71

You make me high! You make me real!
You make me cry! Now you know the way I feel
Love is all around you, your universe is full
But in my world, there is only you

Heard this song on my way home. It's amazing how a song can change my mood so suddenly.

JC1 CCA Orientation tomorrow. Must try to get high before that. Or else I'm gonna scare them away on their 1st day. Ha.

L - Change the World

2008-03-01T06:46:00.000-08:00

Caught L - Change the World with Sis today. Been a while since we went to the movies together. It was an okay movie but I still preferred the first 2 Death Note movies. L looks cool doing all the action mama scenes though, hunch-backed and all.

Before the movie, we went to the CD show and I saw a 5 Disc Compilation of MEGADETH songs! Warchest! And for the cheap price of $60.90. LOL! *Hint* Ehe-he-he.

Megadeth - Warchest! So cool! Bullets!

Today is one of the rare days I actually sat down and studied. What a sense of accomplishment! Finished Chemical Equilibra, P&C and D.C Circuits Tutorial! Though there are a few blanks, but yay all the same. Now my mind too exhausted to think about anything. Good. That means too tired to emo. Haha.

No training on Monday. That means more MUGGING time. Ehe-he-he.

Bitter sweet

2008-02-29T05:40:00.000-08:00

Left school with pretty high spirits but left NTU, totally beaten and just too sian-ed to do anything. I'm so desperate to win now. Inter-JC is coming up in late April and early May. I guess it's time to step up the trainings. Sorry to my team for letting you guys down. Thanks to everyone who asked whether I was okay.

Today really made me feel like crap. Considering the experience I had, the performance today was lousy. Have all the years been wasted? I don't know, but I feel like I've let my ex-coach down. I'm either really past my prime, or never reached it yet. There are so many things I used to be able to do but not anymore. I really feel like kicking myself in the ass. Maybe I shall later.

If only MOE allowed JC students to participate in sparring competitions. At least on the ring, you can really be comfortable with who you are, what style you use and just focus on bringing that damned, really unfortunate person down. Mindless poomsae is taking a toll on my interest in martial arts. What happened to the day when my training was.. well so much more.

Well, anyway, after leaving NTU, we went to Jurong Point to hang out, whilst bringing the extremely long MJC school flag with us. Everyone we walked past stared at us like we were about to carry out some publicity stunt or something. It was pretty funny and a little malu at the same time. But whatever. Hehe.

I'm tired and I still need to do some stuff. So signing off.

Music Day!

2008-02-27T06:01:00.000-08:00

Today was such a rockin' day!

Firstly, SPA was literally a breeze, spent half my time lighting matchsticks. I have an affinity with fire, burnt myself a few times but it was fun.

Then had our 2nd CCA recruitment which was rather dry because most of the J1s didn't come to the 2nd level. Bah whatever. Spent fun time listening to music. Stayed back to watch abit of the finale of the 2nd Orientation. Damn! The band was rockiiin'! Really really nice.

Went to Macdonalds with Brother, Da Sao and Boss for dinner. Didn't plan to eat but in the end ate a Bic Mac meal. So much for my non-fast-food diet. We laughed so loud that I bumped my head on the wall. Painful but funny.

Need to stop getting high after every bath I take. All the jumping around and headbanging gets me sweaty all over again till I need to take another one.

Need to do my AQ. Signing off. Mom's not home yet! Can blast my MUSIC!
Hell Yeah.

Funny Funny

2008-02-25T06:31:00.000-08:00

Funny conversation where me and el-man were discussing what music genre Wolfmother (music band) belonged to.

[P]ussillaninmoust: ram it home! rock it!: wat genre arh wolfmother
[P]: ?
[P]: psychadaelic?
[P]: Lol
el-man \m/ says: no la
el: i think...
el: erm
[P]: wolfmother sounds so metal
[P]: the name i mean
[P]: but their songs
[P]: lol
el: mammalian (mama - lian. Get it?)
[P]: damn catchy
[P]: LOL
[P]: MAMMALIAN?
[P]: Lol
[P]: riiight
el: got listen to britney spears ?
el: i think she is metal (definitely not)

El-man and Moosplat: The certifed wordplayas
By the way, Wolfmother is a nice bad with songs like Woman and Joker and The Thief. Shall upload them songs one of these days.

Anyway, today I'm feeling pretty inpain after conditioning and training. Friday is our COMPETITION! Jiayou guys!

Born with no vision to be the best

2008-02-22T07:26:00.000-08:00

E-learning. The teachers go to East Coast Park to build sandcastles while we toil and mug at home. Bummer.

Woke up at 7 to reach the school at 8. Turned out I was pretty early for the training, and I pretty much slacked for 2 hours straight, doing random jumps, kicks etc. Then, trained with half my team because Songleng overslept. LOL! Haiyo. 11am still sleeping like a log. Tsk. Haha.

Changed and left school at 12.30pm to meet S201 guys for some hardcore LANing at Tampines Sports Complex. That place has dusty keyboards and mouses! Pretty disgusting to play on. DoTa-ed and CS-ed as usual. Don't know why the mood not as crazy as last time. Must be A levels. -swears-

E-learning. Stands for electronic learning. Supposed to be fast as convenient. Well, IVLE is slow and definitely not convenient. Let the Math Lecture load and went for a 15 minutes nap. Came back and saw the deadly pop-up of doom, that one about the program cocking up causing it to close down. I was practically cursing at the computer. The online physics lecture took forever to load and I eventually gave up. Luckily Nicholas managed to put the slides into another website, and I still managed to finish the lectures. Thanks Nic.

-End Post-

2008-02-21T09:11:00.000-08:00

Today was yet another Thursday. Except that I got to look forward to Friday, which is a DAY OFF! E-learning!

Games PE today! And we were playing Frisbee (again). Quite fun though there were couple of injuries. Sze Chun forgot we were playing Frisbee and not American Football, and pummeled into Sherman. Ouch. Second injury was when Kah Hin flung his hand out in the path of a running Nicholas. Smacked him in the head and made his gums bleed. Almost caused a concussion too I think. Violent tendency.

Anyway, today we had our last period of COMPASS elective. And it was about body language and how it's linked to presentation. Hm, I'm really considering to become a motivational speaker now. Just go up to a group of people, speak, motivate them a little, and get greens. :D But I lack motivation to do anything, so being a motivational speaker might just NOT be my thing. Almost got myself into another "make a fool out of yourself" situation during COMPASS elective. We were supposed to sell a product, and my group got a seashell with a fake tortoise on it. Then, the lame beast came out of me and I started ranting on and on about Mighty Morphin' Ocean Rangers and "It's an OCEAN in THERE! :O". To my relief, there wasn't enough time, and I was spared the embarrassment of doing that in front of the whole class. LOL!

Being lame is really starting to get me into deep sh!t. The day before during SPA trial in E1-6, I decided to fool around in class by doing some tai-chi thing to make a pen move (when I was actually blowing it). Got caught by teacher and almost made to perform in front of the class. LOL!

Went to LZG's house after school to slack and play RISK again. Was fun. Laughed a lot and learnt to play Saboteur which is a pretty interesting game of mentally torturing someone's mind. Muaha.

Ending post here. Got training and LAN party with S201 guys at Tampines Sports Complex. Booyah!

forget it. just forget it.

James Blunt Parody :D

2008-02-19T06:12:00.000-08:00

This is a really hilarious thing I saw on Youtube. Really Witty.

She Was Beautiful Parody Lyrics

This is freakin' brilliant—whoops! I started way, way, way too early. What? No. Just keep going? Yeah, it's fine. Cheers.

This is freakin' brilliant.
The embarrassment I endure
I thought I saw an angel
I was completely sure
She smiled at me on the subway
Turned out she was a man
I didn't know until I tried to sleep with her
After 8 black and tans

But she was beautiful, She was beautiful
She was beautiful, I swear
When I saw her face, it was in a crowded place
And I didn't see the bump right here
I shouldn't've drank so much beer.

Yeah, she had one lazy eye
But I couldn't tell in that light.
You should have seen the look on my face
When we got home that night.
And I said, "What the----oh my! Can we turn off the lights?"
But she just took off her clothes and my lust turned to fright.

But she was beautiful, She was beautiful
She was beautiful, I swear
When I saw her face, it was in a crowded place
And I didn't see the bulge right here.
Why did I drink so much beer?

No no no no no,
No no no no no no,
No no no no no no!

But she was beautiful, I promise she was beautiful
You gotta believe me she was beautiful, I swear.
I bet a flock of angels had smiles on their faces
As they watched me almost hook up with her—him—her—him—oh, gosh.
But it's time to face the truth
I got drunk and made out with a dude.
Now THIS song is in my head. Bah. Training

Now THIS song is stuck in my head. Training tomorrow. :D

Fatigue is addictive.

2008-02-17T06:15:00.000-08:00

I'm getting really unfit.

So I told myself today "Give it your all. Even if you can't take it, just push on."
And I'm satisfied with myself. Giving everything I have today even if it means dying during tomorrow's PE. And I sparred! After such a long time. And sparring at almost full strength felt pretty good. :D

Sigh. Tomorrow's PE and Training.

And Moosplat hates j00 elman! Get to go to Iron Maiden Live in Australia. Baah.

To all the fans sittin out in the stands
We got some mad love
When we come to see you again
What?!
We're coming down
And we're bringing some friends
So get your ass up to the stage
And we can let the damn thing BEGIN

My newest addiction. So very rockin'. Raise Up By Saliva.

Post-CNY Syndrome

2008-02-11T06:04:00.000-08:00

I'm suffering from Post-CNY Syndrome. I have totally no motivation to study at all. I feel mentally exhausted. And now, physically tired after Monday Training. I feel unfit, after eating so much crap across the 4 days. And it's 9 more weeks to NAPFA! I really need to start getting in shape.

And I'm really focusing and diverting my attention to the wrong things at the moment. Not listening AT ALL in the lectures, unless it's Mr Tee deviating from Mathematics in LT4 showing us unglam photographs he took during the College Road Race. I need a sign, or something to let my mind just come to a conclusion and stop over-thinking things. (but it's so hard)

Competitions in 2 weeks. I don't know how I would do. Don't think we would screw up. I hope. Gambatte mjTKD team. Fight on!

And to myself. Fight on. SELF MOTIVATION!.. -.-

I'm soo screwed for March Block Test.

it's all your fault. but i'm not complaining. sigh (:

the big screen

2008-02-09T07:26:00.000-08:00

once again to everyone who helped out. :D good job!

anyway, went to Yuheng's house today for CNY with the TKD people. Gambled, and played guitar hero again! so long never touch my hand itchy! LOL! let's do it again next year.

maybe I'll hold one at my house too. he-he-he

one of the only serious photos i smiled normally

2008-02-07T08:23:00.000-08:00

Chinese New Year so far has been.. Chinese New Year.

Hilarious.

2008-02-06T09:01:00.000-08:00

definitely not your typical chinese new year mood.

sigh. if only I could read minds.

2008-02-06T05:37:00.000-08:00

Chinese New Year's Eve! Gong xi fa cai to everyone. :D

Today was the performance at MJC. Woke up at 5.30 am then went to school tired like siao. Then met up with the club to get ready for the performance. The guys were getting so very high! LOL! Had fun "screwing" up the photo-takings with YuHeng. LOL! I think our club full of high people who manage to find a song for every single moment. XD

wake up at 5.45am for CNY performance.. of course BUAY SONG la! XD

we are happy men

captain bully me!

mjTKD aerobics! boo yah!

it's a wrap!

Then the performance! It was good. The best since the reharsals! Thumbs up to everyone! From the self-defencers to the kick-boarders to the aerobic-ers to the logistic-ers. :D

I hope everyone enjoyed themselves throughout the whole process.
Then, we met some of our seniors. Actually.. only three. But whatever.

Met Jason Doug and Huacai and his friend and went out to makan at TM. Then in the end, wanted to LAN, but LAN shop was full. So we all went home.

Bah. That's about it. Pretty uneventful Chinese New Year's Eve.

And I can't go see fireworks with Jason. Sorry arh. Bad japanese mushrooms for reunion dinner.

Hmm. Need to "cope" photos from people's online photo album. :D

let's stay strong, live through this, and then look back and laugh.

CNY reharsal

2008-02-01T22:06:00.000-08:00

yesterday was our first CNY reharsal. it was.. okay i guess.

the performance at LT4 is troublesome, considering that we do not have enough space for most of our stuff.

at least we managed to do a good one at the hall. :D

good job to everyone who helped out in the performance. let's keep it up till Wednesday. :D

Bullet for My Valentine

2008-01-28T05:17:00.000-08:00

BFMV, one of my favourite metalcore bands are coming out with a NEW ALBUM SOON called: SCREAM AIM FIRE

I so wanna get my hands on it.. The following is a song from the album, called.. Scream Aim Fire. LOL!

Disclaimer: You might not be able to stomach it. It's a little heavy. Music's subjective. Don't slam my taste.

road race

2008-01-26T07:29:00.000-08:00

the annual college road race is finally over!

woke up early and made my way to pasir ris park to prepare for the race. i must say i was pretty nervous about running that long distance as a competitor as i've never really done it before. but there i was, warming up for the 4.3 km run, part of MJTKD's one and only team. before the competition, we were already expecting the canoing team to dominate.. and we were right.

the horn blared and it was go-go time! i stayed behind the pack and according to what my classmates told me, i was literally walking for a few seconds while everyone chiong-ed forward. XD. o well, i tried my best to maintain a steady pace with ezra who i realised was also running. so we just jogged while most of the pack sprinted. there were a few other people behind us joking around, which was quite a stress reliever.

and the run was great, the scenery was a good change from the usual run around the school's track or perimeter. the sea air was refreshing and i jogged on longer than i expected. the only pauses i took were up to only 1-10 seconds, which is much better compared to the times i ran in school. thanks to ezra who kept me going throughout the race.

and so we ran, and overtook a handful of people who were suffering from the effects who shouldn't have dashed so crazily at the start from the race. and so we ran and ran and ran. what more can i say? it was a good run. :)

after the competitive run, i joined my class for the house mascot "run". Which wasn't really a run after running the 4.3km. It was more of a walk-a-thon, with frequent pauses to let the rest of the Atlas house take over. and i managed to get a bug hanging from a web into my mouth. and out of it. bah. XD.

anyway, after the house mascot "run", we slacked around waiting for the prize presentation to the winners of the various categories. and not to my surprise, the canoing male team got 1st, 2nd AND 3rd. Lol. But what was to my surprise was the results of overall house champion:-

atlast, ATLAS won!

and about time too. :D

good work to all TKD runners. woo.

sigh (:

I'm sick.

Sick of work. Sick of school. Sick of the noisy world. Sick of my responsiblities.

I didn't know life would be THIS hard. Maybe I've really been living in my own world, not facing up to reality, and just taking a back seat in life. Well, I've just woken up to this sick reality.

Monday - Training. Ends around 7pm.
Tuesday - School ends around 6pm.
Wednesday - Training. Ends around 5pm.
Thursday - School. Ends around 5pm.
Friday - Ends around 1pm.

This schedule packed with even more stuff like extra lessons, Talent Management on Saturdays, and more training and activities over the weekend equates to: A very irritated 17 year old MJC student typing this Blog entry to vent his anger.

And I'm hating it. Hating waking up early in the morning. Hating to sit through lessons just to get a good certificate at the end of my school life. I just don't believe this is how I'm supposed to live my life. The same life that almost everyone live. Study study. And then study. I'm familiar with the chinese proverb 活到老, 學到老. But this is getting ridiculous.

This mindset of mine is probably the sole cause of all the snappy retorts that I've been throwing at people around me. Let me take this chance to apologise. Sorry. 2008, a new year, new joy and so many new chapters in my Pork Chop Mee Combination. All I need to do is just take a look at the amount of stuff I need to study and I just feeling like sleeping. Life's boring.

I'm feeling no push, no drive, no motivation to do anything. Sigh. And life after A levels and National Service? Some 7 to 7 job stuck in some cubicle at some office in the city. Something to look forward to? Definitely not.

The only solitude I find is when I stuff my earphones in my ear and turn the MP4 to the max. Music is so much more exciting.

Sick of my feelings.

2008

2007-12-31T09:34:00.000-08:00

it's been a while since i've blogged, so i'm back, with this special 2008 post. :D

anyway, today (or should i say yesterday, in 2007), i woke up at 12pm to meet yingzhen at simei at 1. then we went to bedok to meet jason, which we then found out that he went to simei to find us.

-.-

LOL, anyway, when we finally managed to rendezvous, we made our way to vivo city to buy something which yingzhen needed. which turned out to be.. a handphone screen protector. What?! Yes, she wanted to go to vivo to get a 20 bucks one instead of a cheap one from the tampines pasar malam. LOL! anyway, on the long trip there, we chatted loudly (maybe to the annoyance to some of our fellow passengers, but who cares) and i told them about the big hoo-ha in my recent extra training at bedok reservoir.

"when trianing was about to start, few of the sirs, started shouting Oi oi at a few teenagers. then turned out to be 3 guys whacking one dude. slashing actually, with what appears to be a parang. then those 3 guys ran away, and the solo slashed-up-in-the-neck dude walked past our training area dripping a few droplets of blood on the way" not everything you see everyday huh? :D

well, back to the happenings of today, when we reached vivo and after me and jason have had our filling meal of mushroom chicken chop and seafood platter, we made a way to some shop to get yingzhen her 20 bucks handphone screen protector. >.< LOL! after that, we pretty much bo-liaoed for the next hour or so.

what we did were:-
1. walked around a lot
2. bo-liaoed
3. went to pet safari to see the dogs
4. went to arcade but didn't play anything
5. went to the roof top wading pool but didn't wade
6. bo-liaoed some more
7. went back to arcade and didn't play anything
8. played wii

in the end we decided to go back to pasir ris to play pool. but on the MRT trip home, we came up with the idea of going yingzhen's house to mahjong. but we abolished that idea soon once we realised we couldn't play mahjong without the mahjong set. so we got off at tampines to catch a movie or play pool, which we didn't do either of it.

at tampines mall, we played BISHIBASHI at the arcade, and i won. yingzhen is a bishibashi newbie. haha. XD. then i tried some shooting game which i died quickly. then made our way to toys r us to play with styrofoam swords and stuff. hahaha. so bo liao. after that we went to mos burger to get milk tea. yingzhen keep saying milk tea, so i thought it was like bubble thing or something, in the end it's just teh-peng (or tea with milk and ice). -.-

so yingzhen PANG SEHed me and jason at about 7. then both of us go play LAN at the empty LAN gaming center on the 3rd floor of the Tampines sports complex. haha, played 1 game of dota, then started playing CS with some strangers. top frag me and jason. XD after a while, we left and i decided to go with jason to watch the fireworks display at marina bay.

we elbowed, cursed under our breaths, gave a lot of "tsk"s and basically walked through the never ending crowd on the bridge above the river. after 1 hour of finding, we managed to get a pretty good spot, so me and jason sat down and waited for 1 hour. while we waited, people were being funny and stupid, shouting and cheering at the stupidest thing, like a single balloon floating up in the sky, probably let go by some kid.

WA BALLOON! TAKE OUT PHONE TAKE OUT PHONE! haha

we discussed about music, metal, things we do on youtube and etc. until at about 11.55 pm when we stood up and got out our phones to get ready for a supposed spectacular show. and then, it began.

arent they pretty? LOL! really like the ones that acted like golden dust falling down the sky. so magical. so beautiful. so... disney.

and it ended as quickly as it started, me and jason quickly made our great escape through the crowd trying to get to the MRT before everyone else. but since we are all singaporeans and we all think alike in the end, we were still stuck on the bridge. people were getting restless while we waited and some argues with the traffic police about letting us cross the road, and they refused to. after awhile, and some cursing and complaining, we, the suppressed people of the bridge at marina bay, STOOD UP against the tyrants of the road, and we climbed through the bridge railings and walked across the street blatantly. HA! shiok sia, the adrenaline rush and all.

and this ends 2007. a truly fun year.

and this also welcomes the start of 2008, a year which i hope to be as fun, even though the bloody A levels are looming closer and closer with each passing second. hope i can go to another rock concert or something. :D

happy new year everyone. :D

2007-12-12T06:57:00.000-08:00

I'm back from TKD chalet. And it was fun!

But i'm lazy and tired so i would blog about it some other day.

For now, here's a song that's super nice and is on Guitar Hero (my new addiction)

Welcome to the Jungle
by Gun's and Roses

Welcome to the jungle
We got fun 'n' games
We got everything you want
Honey we know the names
We are the people that can find
Whatever you may need
If you got the money honey
We got your disease

Chorus:

In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your shun n,n,n,n,,n,n,,n,n,n,,n,n,,n knees, knees
I wanna watch you bleed

Welcome to the jungle
We take it day by day
If you want it you're gonna bleed
But it's the price you pay
And you're a very sexy girl
That's very hard to please
You can taste the bright lights
But you won't get them for free
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
I, I wanna hear you scream

Welcome to the jungle
It gets worse here everyday
Ya learn ta live like an animal
In the jungle where we play
If you got a hunger for what you see
You'll take it eventually
You can have anything you want
But you better not take it from me

Chorus

And when you're high you never
Ever want to come down, so down, so down, so down YEAH!

You know where you are
You're in the jungle baby
You're gonna die
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your shu n,n,n,,n,n,,n,n,n,,n,n,,n,n,,n knees, knees
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine

In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your
It's gonna bring you down!
Ha!

Late post: TKD Outing

2007-12-06T05:50:00.000-08:00

Okay. Blogger's weird. I tried updating yesterday but it couldn't and now it can. So just treat this like a post of yesterday.

Woken up by Yuheng's call this morning at 830am and realised i was late for training! By 30 minutes! Got my stuff and chionged out on my dad's car. Reached the area outside bio lab then realised that only 9 members turned up. 1/3 of the entire CCA population. What a joke. >:(

Was a little pissed off by the turn out but the piss-iness subsided after 1-2 minutes. Guess we really need to start doing something about attendance. And the people who didn't turn up were the ones who wanted the TKD outing to be at some restaurant. Omg. But anyway, we continued training with the pathetic turn out with some kicks and stuff. Dismissed 2 hours later, but most of us stayed back to practice for TKD aerobics. I only remember the first half, so I was only able to teach them up to there. Which was pretty pathetic.

We (Yh, Rara, Wq, me) left for TM at 1110 for the supposed TKD outing at Seoul Garden. 3 of our seniors, and 2 other members joined later. Yh, CC, and me took one table of seafood kimchi soup, and started cooking heaps of meaty food. Woo. Ate our fill and after that we all stayed on in Seoul Garden to chat and tell jokes ( Both clean and dirty). XD So nice to see people laugh.

Anyway, we left at about 5pm to take neoprint. 9 people in one neoprint machine is quite a handful and i found myself always at the edge of the photo. And when the photos developed, i found my face, always covered by some stupid frame, butterfly, golden bubbles, etc. LOL! Well, it was fun designing the neoprints before developing them.

Then we all set off to G2000 to help CC get his shirt for the J2 Prom the next day. Then set off to arcade to pool with the remaining people. Lost all games sia. :( Must really practice already. Saddening.

End post.

chalet

2007-11-30T07:35:00.000-08:00

okay. after a sleep from 7pm to 11pm, i shall now update about the class chalet.

DAY 1:
met rachel, jasmine, doug and jason at 1030 at tampines interchange macdonalds. i ate my light fillet o fish breakfast before we made our way to bedok's sheng shiong to buy whatever we haven't buy. and to also get the pot of curry from rachel's house. when we left to make our way to pasir ris, it started to rain. so UNLUCKY sia. :S

when we reached, we found out that we needed somebody 18 and above to provide his/her IC to check in. and since we were J1s, none of us could. XD. rachel went to find we called jon's mom to come and help us check in, but we realised a short while later that we could have used the self-check in machine, which doesn't need someone over 18 to be persent. LOL! so we waited and waited till jon's mom came to check in for us.

when we finally checked in, we stoned a lil in the chalet until mr max came and told us that we would have problems BBQ-ing due to the rain. so he got some of the guys, including me to go make a makeshift shelter for the BBQ, made up of table cloths. so cool right? everyone else were holding "pathetic" umbreallas over their pit, and we had this large pink sheet covering the whole area. so the BBQ finally started, we ate and ate and ate. non-stop until 4am, with mr. whatduh still eating away.

the night activities were sian, cos there weren't any planned night activities. a group of guys played cards till morning, while the rest watched TV and sianed away. tried to get the movie "Land of the Dead" to work, but for some reason it couldn't. Which is good cause i would have probably died of fright watching it.

slept at around 3am.

DAY 2:
fun day! woke up at 11 for breakfast. josephine was really hard to wake up! heavy sleeper nia. after waiting for whoever to come, we decided to give up and make our way to Escape first. we took a ride on everything, except the haunted house and inverter. whilst driving the go-kart advanced, there were 2 other guys who seemed to mistake it as bumper cars, and started crashing/bumping into me. Wa! bloody pissed off. -.-

i guess the ride that everyone enjoyed the most was the Wet n Wild, aka Log ride. To me, the best part was the wind when sliding down the 15m high "slide of doom". Lmao. we managed to get asher to take it! yay! we got off, wet like wet people, and decided to leave.

went back to the chalet, dried my hair by a little. me, doug, huacai, zhiguan, wilson, edwin, led by jason and alvin, decided to cycle all the way from pasir ris to changi village to get our dinner. Damn fun (though tiring)! there was one large uphill that i did not manage to cross successfully without getting off the bike and pushing. but other than that, the cycle was fun, and uhm.. breezy :D. the ride there was okay, cause i didn't know the route very well. but the ride back was hella insane as we had to make it back to the rental shop by 7pm and we had only 30 minutes back. rode like mad and led the group for a short distance before lagging behind at the upslope, before catching up again. Woo! fun! reached back to the chalet and felt a sense of achievement. and ate our reward, nasi lemak from changi village! i and jason also bought 2 glass bottles of drinks and put it into the fridge. (why the randomness? tell you later)

after a bath and dry off, we all made our way to the poolhouse. it was full, as i expected so we waited and burned our time by playing FOOSEBALL! haha. it's so fun! jonothan is so pro! can control to rows of blue men alone. when we finally got the table, we played doubles and stuff. when we came back to the chalet, i learned bridge from yingzhen, chengyoke and sherman (thanks to them! :D). though i'm still quite blur about it, i get the rough idea. :D bullied yingzhen by abusing her purple hippao, which sherman called hei bao (black something) cos it was not purple anymore. it was gray, maybe cause of dust or fading of colors. we made so much noise the management came down personally to warn us to SHUT THE HELL UP! lol! XD. i also cut my hand when i got the glass bottles out, as they exploded due to the sheer cold of the freezer, which i and jason stupidly put in. -.- my lil pinky bled like siao and i had to hold my pinky up like dr. evil from austin powers. Lmao.

DAY 3:
slept like a pig until 930. woke up and saw everyone gone except me kenni, jason and doug. helped them clear up then went back to sleep. woke up at 1015 for some final clean ups. kenni left for school first while the rest went to food court for a satisfyingly filling breakfast, consisting of 2 rotiprata and a plate of carrot cake. mmm. *drools* we then went to pool house again to wait for the rain to stop. when the rain stopped, we left for home,

at last. :D

2007-11-23T06:36:00.000-08:00

Holidays.

I look forward to them. After all, they ARE a break from schoolwork to a CERTAIN extent.
(until you remember that there are still Chem, Econs, Math, Physics and research work to do)

But when they actually come, i find myself..

Bored. Bored with nothing to do. Xbox's driver is down. I just finished Season 1 and 2 of Prison Break and Season 1 of Heroes. Have chased Bleach and Naruto Shippuden to the latest episode. Read the latest manga chapters of them too.

I've even picked up a certain level of self-learned photoshop skills. The picture above used to be a man at work sign. Now it's a guy with the guitar. Dunno why it turned out like this though. It's supposed to be one single picture. Screw Blogger. >:(

So now. I'm bored. I need ideas for something to do.

By the way, I was looking at pictures from Rachel's blog. I just realised how idiotic i've made myself seem. I look completely psychotic! How Psychotic?

This is a psycho:
Aye. Certified psychotic looking. Practically has "PSYCHO" stamped on his face.

Now, check this out during the JC1 End Year Bash.

And yes. That's me at the back in black. Spot the difference?
Wait, that's a difficult question. What about: spot the similarities?

No? You must be blind. :D

I think i'm gonna stop being that crazy already. Serious Shuli.

LOL!

bored

2007-11-12T21:24:00.000-08:00

ok, so now i'm in school waiting for my turn for the TM interview.

yawn.

nvm. i would take this opporunity to blog on my past events.

on saturday, i left my house early to meet junwen, junwei, calvin and alvan to get a last minute present for zizie's party. junwen and his new image made us go "lol" and "omg". haha XD. anyway, we made our way to bugis and started looking around for presents. yy told us over the phone to get her a perfume, then we started debating whether or not to get a perfume. in the end we rejected the idea, cos first of all, we do not noe whether zizie would even use it, or even like the choice. we were stepping into unventured territories and we weren't gonna risk it. haha! so in the end we bought a 50 bucks gift made up of smaller gifts instead of the 100 bucks perfume.

a lil mathematics: 50 bucks divided by the 10 people, some who forgot to buy a present equates to each of us contributing 5 bucks for the present. O.O woah! cheapo seh! yay! lol

so we then made our way back to tampines bus interchange to meet yy, silei, florence, darren, faiz and nigel. (in order of lateness) slowly made our way to zizie's party at loyang point and met even more tmskians. chatted. laughed. played tai ti standing up. saw someone get thrown into a pool. XD poor guy arh. hehehe. after that, we left early to downtown east for pooling and stuff. missed the last train and took a cab home.

yesterday, went for J1 end year bash at some club at clark quay! haha! well, it was pretty boring. didnt find the things interesting there. some people not used to the loud music then get ringing sensation in the ear. the pool tables were fully booked due to some pool compeition. in the end, the ppl from S201 played truth or dare. and damn, the dares were so funny and the truths were so sick. dares included: dancing in the cage solo, asking a guy for his number, and standing in the middle of nowhere and start dancing. HAHA! missed the last train again and took yz's car home. the road loves me. hehe! ;)

gotta run. interview time.

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY ZIZIE!

live life? hm

2007-11-04T06:28:00.000-08:00

i've come to a point in my life where i've come to an overdue conclusion

my life is crap

i know i know. some of you might say, but life is fun. yea i've tried that outlook. even believed it so much i included that in my friendster description. but i guess its all a facade.

17 years of this shit. 17 years of living in a hellhole i call home. among all their drama, they never pause, not even for one second to remember that i still exist and im feeling the sum of all their pain. it's amazing.

yes it is.

amazing that after 17 years of their "love" i havent snapped and started going around killing people. or started self abusement. well, maybe cause im the only sane person in my house. me and the hamster in the cage but i wont call that creature a human.

so im stuck. in this emo session, and for a good reason. im waiting for a few more years, when im a legalised adult and can get a proper job with salary. then its alta la vista biatches. im gone.

HA! and i thought he locked the door cos he bought a 360 for me. lol. damn was i stupid.

pool. O.O

2007-11-02T07:51:00.000-07:00

today was my first pool session for a long time O.O
i think the last time i played pool was in.. march i think. now THAT is a long time.

so i went to downtown mac early in the morning at 10 o clock instead of MJ cos mr max was sick. i told my group to come at 2 and i have no idea y i came so early. maybe to stone and stuff. lol! in the end, i became quite productive and started playing marvel vs capcom! woohoo!

at 2 o clock, alvin, then doug, then mr. whatduh came. zhilin couldnt make it cos she was sick too. we started practicing our speech for the OP on tuesday and it was hilarious. haha. making them become drama-mama overnight is hella hard but they sure tried! good work guys! :D

at 6 o clock me, doug, yz, my, and edwin who were there with my group all along left to play pool! jason came abit later from his OP meeting. haha! well my pooling limbs are so rusty and i lao qiu quite alot. i just realised i always suck when playing at downtown. haha! no one won properly cos everyone won with the other fouling realli bad. such as: hitting the black ball into the wrong hole, hitting the black ball with the white ball in and hitting the black ball before his set was complete. haha! at 9:20, edwin and yz left for home and stuff, leaving the rest of us to play till 9:30 sharp!

i think there was a fight brewing at around 9 plus cos people started yelling and running out of the pool place. but i didnt get to see any fist fights :(

the people remaining then left for the arcade and played that basketball thing. our score was.. CMI! cannot make it! haha. we were scoring double digits! compared to the high scores which were triple digits we are like.. crap. XD then we also played taht hit red green blue game. dunno what it's called. :S after awhile we left for home and now im here blogging.

to that person who criticised MJ043 behind my back. you are lucky im not the man i used to be or i would've slammed you so hard when i see you. !@#%!@#%%

to all the sick people i know, GET WELL SOON!

metal!

2007-10-27T08:36:00.000-07:00

ambassadors of rock! YEA!

so today was the day of the long-awaited HEAVEN n HELL concert!

woke up pretty early, studied chinese and watched the simpsons halloween special marathon. so funny!' changed into my metal clothes and took my metal keys and left my metal house to meet another metal fan elman. >.<>

and down again after 10 minutes or so cos elman was feeling thirsty and needed a drink. tsk. troublesome! just kidding XD. we got into the concert area pretty early so we sat around and talked about life a little. hyped each other up for the concert. Woo! i got a rough idea of the metal community of singapore and i'm happy to say it's pretty big! there were young children from the age of about 10 to the aged with long hair! XDthey were selling HEAVEN n HELL tshirts! and black sabbath and megadeth posters! but i didnt bring enough cash so sadly didn't buy any souvenirs home. nvm! i still got the photos :D

singaporeans and lateness. tsk. late for wedding and late for metal concerts. the concert, which was supposed to start at 800 started at 830. but those who were already there, including me and elman were already crowding around the stage and tapping to the songs being played. haha! the ambiance and mood was so great! everyone was nodding to the rhythm! and when the song Aces High by Iron Maiden was played 2 or 3 songs before the concert proper and almost everyone start singing along!

LIVE TO FLY!

FLY TO LIVE! ACES HIIIGH! haha!

then the concert proper started and the whole place shook due to the amazing amps and bass! i could literally feel myself vibrating! and it was so shiok! haha :D the songs were great though i admit that i'm a black sabbath newbie and haven't listened to them alot. actually, to say great is an understatement. more of a wowie amazingly omg-ly great. lol!

awesome lighting of the stage!

i think they were playing dying young. \m/

my personal fave songs were voodoo, dying young and that last song they played when the crowd shouted MORE MORE, which i couldnt really catch. YES! they actually came back on stage in the hot night to play just 1 last song for singapore! yea! me and elman were headbanging like mad people cos they were so great! the 2nd last song, heaven and hell, that they played however didn't make it into my fave list. cos it was too amazingly nice. more like love list. HAA! ok im crapping.

getting in the mood! YEA!

the song heaven n hell was a pretty long song which the crowd (including me :D) kept singing along to as they played. everyone was going crazy, headbanging, shouting, whistling. and there were these parts where the whole stage went black except a red light shining on the vocalist's face and his voice suddenly turns uber demoning. the crowd went wild! and no, not out of fear! out of sheer Ecstasy! i think i almost wet my pants at this point. lol XD

other than the songs there were 2 long solos. one, by tommi iommi (guitarist) and the other by
vinny appice (drummer). they were left alone on the stage while the rest took a short break. everyone just went quieter and looked in awe and respect. their skills, after years of practice are amazing!

guitar solo by tommi

so now, im back here in this boring life with OP and chinese As. with a slight neck sprain and a ringing noise in my ear. well the concert was worth these and a whopping $112 so i'm pretty satisfied. ok off to take a break. end post.

next concert i'm going to save up for: dream theater! and iron maiden or metallica if they come. :D

adrenaline rush

2007-10-26T05:09:00.000-07:00

i can feel the adrenaline rush..

no not because of the coming OP exam

and DEFINITELY not because of chinese As -.-

it's because of tomorrow.
BLACK SABBATH CONCERT! \m/
although i initally wanted to go to megadeth one, as the concert draws nearer i get more and more hyped up! i dunno why too.. maybe cos it's my first time experiencing a real-life concert! something other than school rock concerts. haha! gonna charge my phone to take some pictures! WOO!

el-man.. are you ready? mr.bibilibusta is! haha!

Transport to concert: approx. 90 cents
Possible asprin for headache the next day: 1 buck
Hospital bills for neck sprain due to excessive head-banging: approx. $85
One night of METAL fun listening to long haired men in their 60s jumping around with their guitars?

PRICELESS!

Damn! i'm so hyped up!

fading away

wr, planes and lan

2007-10-19T08:57:00.000-07:00

today was the last day we have to send our WR proposal. though i thought we would be stressed like mad, i'm glad to say almost everything went pretty smoothly.

went early to school day and gave mr max our final draft. i was pretty confident it would be accepted until mr max return us the draft with some more changes. O.O. literally screamed on the spot. then no choice went back with alvin and doug to my house to re-print some of the pages. haha. CS can FINALLY work on my PC! cos alvin copied it into mine. alvin was folding paper planes at my house cos he seemed to be pretty bored with the job i gave him, crushing up the papers. LOL!

then went back MJ to bind the WR together and hand it up. mr. WhatDuh didn't turn up again for PW. so we had no choice but to forge his signature on the WR. and mr max said MJ043 (our group) should bring mr. WhatDuh to one side and screw him if he isn't helping us with PW at all. LOL.

mr max: take him to one side and screw him
me: (pause) what? (laughs as if i heard wrong) huh?
mr max: yes! screw him!
me: (looks at alvin) LOL!

ok so WR was handed up pretty early at around 3 o clock. im proud of my group. thank you guys! even mr. WhatDuh cos you did do some parts of the WR.

but i went home at 7. cos i stayed in school and slacked. alvin took out the paper planes he took our previously and started throwing it around when the rest were kicking soccer. then for some reason, it turned out into some paper plane war with jason and alvin on one side, against me and nic on the other. LOL! i tio plane in the head so many times if those planes were real bullets i would have died 2 minutes into the war. LOL! then went to renew our laptop then started playing Warcraft on it for 4 hours straight. taugh alvin and jason dota. haha alvin is an uber fast learner! woah!

later on, we (doug, jason, jon, edwin, me) went to downtown east to check out chalet slots for 07S201. looks like we still have a lot of empty slots! phew! i personally hope we get the double storey one at pasir ris. although i think it's quite impossible to book a date whereby everyone of 07S201 can make it to the chalet. *hint hint to all the 07S201 reading this. haha XD.

then had emo period of the day while waiting edwin to confirm slots with the receptionist. recieved a call from my mom asking me whether i was gonna go home soon. i replied with the usual yes coming home soon then we both hung up. but then i paused. why did she sound so sad? something happen to grandad? then i started panicking and smsed/called my dad and mom hoping to get an answer. they say nothing nothing and i wasn't convinced till i reached home and saw dad watching soccer and mom knitting something. LOL

i've decided to abstain from fast food for at least 1 month. i've been eating it so much these few days! for example, today lunch was macdonalds and then dinner was KFC. im not being appearance-conscious but health-conscious. haha. there's a difference okaay?

OP gonna start in a few weeks time! with A level Chinese! personally i think im screwed for A level Chinese. realli realli need to buck up. ok end post!

10 days to BLACK SABBATH METAL WEEKEND.
i don't want him to leave us, but it's just so hard for me to express what i feel. useless bastard of a guy i am.

seoul garden, helium, and fun

2007-10-13T08:27:00.000-07:00

Today has been FUN!

woke up in the morning to meet Mr Max with rest of the class at tampines macdonalds to discuss PW. we are seriously pia-ing through our WR at the moment, with many last minute changes to make it to the EE grade.

then went home, changed, and met huacai, wilson, kenni to go LAN! woo! been a long time since i played outside. stupid promos and stuff! lol.

then had a "reunion dinner" with the old PAE gang at seoul garden. been such a long time since i met weekee and kwon loong. met everyone except kwon loong at Orchard MRT, then headed out to Seoul Garden. it's my first time eating at seoul (deprived, i am) and it was pretty expensive. but it was okay since it was a buffet kinda thing and i was starving my ass off. O.O so i ignored the price pretty much and just paid what i could and went straight to the meal.

makan! eating buffet it's so fun. with weekee cooking our egg fried rice. everyone seems to be a professional at cooking something. i absolutely love the meaty stuff. beef, coffee chicken, black pepper chicken etc etc. the mussels were pretty good too! dried mussels taste like chicken to me. haha! kwon loong joined us halfway due to his PW meeting, and chaos ensued. such a looong time since i unleashed the crazy side of me. lol! we talked about everything! soggy biscuits to air rifle. haha. realli laughed my ass off when kwon loong was doing his thing. i guess all the guys have really held that beast inside. haha. XD.

after a pretty satisfying dinner (that lasted from 5 to 830), we went window shopping. did stupid things, like posed like those mannequins in those shop windows. haha. i at last saw wat Halo 3 is like already! though i'm pretty disappointed. yes it does look very realistic with cool graphics and all. but the intensity isn't there anymore. the floods (monsters) don't look that scary in such bright lighting anymore. maybe it's just that part of that game, i dunno. then tried out some game i've been seeing alot on Xbox 360 and keep forgetting its name. its some third person shooter game. it's pretty simple for me, though i did die after awhile. maybe it's not set to difficult mode or something.

after awhile, we walked to MRT station and we were all acting stupid. we went on the very long escalator and those elevators where you can look outside, and acted like it was some thrilling amusement ride. haha. acted like i was gonna pee in my pants in excitement. the things i do when im high. XD. also breathed in helium from a balloon at the MRT platform. i didn't feel anything at first when i sucked in a little. so i sucked the whole content of the balloon. WOW! my voice box felt like it was floating and my voice went uber high pitch! haha. hilarious. and i humiliated myself in public again. XD

the remaining people (limin, gaoming and jon) took a long MRT ride home. talked about school stuff and somehow the conversation led to height. we were comparing the lengths of our necks and legs. haha. yes im pretty long limbed. shoot jon shoot up! hahahaha. (personal, politically incorrect joke)

so yes. today's been fun. i really wanna see the whole gang again sometime soon. people i am comfortable with being myself without fearing to be outcasted in anyway. let's go out sometime again!

ok. end post. need to do stuff. bye.

hold on. before it's too late?. i dunno. maybe

OPEN HOUSE THE END

2007-10-06T01:35:00.000-07:00

attack of the oldies! i'm addicted to Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy by Mr. Big. it's a song from their 1991 album! so ROCK!

If you're a red hot fire cracker
I will light your fuse
If you cry like a little girl
I'll dry your baby blues
When you need a man of action
I'm ready to make my move
Like a shogun shot, Johhny on the spot
There's nothing I can't do
Everything you're looking for
You can find in me
I'll be anything you want
Anyone you need
I'll be your daddy, your brother, your lover and
your little boy
When your body needs salvation
I'll be your tender touch
I'll take all the love you give
And give you twice as much
When we get undercover
And do the horizontal mile
I'm in the mood to answer to your call of the wil
Everything you're looking for
You can find in me
I'll be anything you want
Anyone you need
Everything you're looking for
Anything that you want and more
I'll be your daddy, your brother, your lover and
your little boy

OPEN HOUSE has officially started and ended, and i'm one day late in updating it on my blog. Haha. the turnout from secondary school students was quite small. in the end, most of the freebies given by the school were taken home by our own meridian students.

haha. had a fun time doing "slack" sparring with Song Leng. then i did a lil throwing, a lil locking, but no grappling. i miss grappling. those good ol' days at changkat CC. i remember doing something stupid yesterday. when all atlas members were told to assemble for our house mass dance, i changed into my house tee and ran to the parade square. stupid part is: i ran there with only foot gaurd. so i was pretty much exposed to the scorching tiles of the parade square. you ever seen those cartoons where the characters skipped around cos the floor was too hot. and then u think to urself, "damn. they sure are stupid. never wear shoes." LOL. so i literally skipped back to get my shoes which soles were alreadi peeling off, so the burning effect was onli reduced by a lil. remind to self: buy new shoes.

October 8, 2007
nothing much today. in fact, it's been pretty boring. had a PW meeting this morning at 9 which only 3 members of my group turned up. alvin overslept and szechun is MIA. lol. and now im back here typing typing typing. tomorrow is my grading! i hope i get doubles! but muscle cramp so much. sigh.

move along move along

peace and tranquilty

2007-10-03T05:49:00.000-07:00

silence.

isn't total quiet really peaceful. it's not something you get veri often. especially with em around. lol. seriously. today i was taking a bath after i reached home and i realised, that when a layer of water streams down your head and covers both of you ears, it gets really quiet. couldn't even hear the max-ed volume of my Nokia 6233 playing Albi the Racist Dragon. (it's a hilarious song btw)

big-ass headphones. O.O Wooo. Talk about shutting youself out from the world!

i think im starting to fall in love with silence. or issit my fetish of having both of my ears covered. after all i do like to plug my earphones whenever my MP3 isn't acting weirdly. or maybe i just wanna shut myself out from the world out there.

sorry about that. random emo moment.

anyway, today school starts again! after a short break. and my timetable comprises of PW lecture, dance practice for atlas, and CCA preperation for open house. PW lecture was ok i guess. most of the tips on Oral Presentation i already heard off before. the dance practice were.. well, surpisingly interesting. i was expecting dead enthusiasm from atlas. but alas! i've never seen atlas be so enthusiastic, or rowdy. lol. maybe it's just some of our class guys that have really strong influence in dampening the spirit. i have no idea. well it was fun, and the songs were nice. nicer than Umbrella by Rihanna during aces day. haha!

CCA preperation was fun! though it was pretty more craft than art, which i absolutely suck at, i tried to help the TKD people as much as i could. difficult though. i can't cut paper for nuts. i can't color using marker for nuts. and i absolutely can't glue stuff properly. O.O what's wrong with you! lol. after preparing all we could today, took our some targets to practice with hm, rashidah, yh and sufandy. fun. deprived from training for so long due to promos.

ok end post.
seriously, silence. it's great. you should try it once in awhile. without plugging your ears with earphones.

PW horror

2007-10-02T07:26:00.000-07:00

i'm posting this entry halfway through my tiresome written report as i'm waiting for my members to send me their associated parts.

today is the last day of this so called break. actually it IS a real break. just that it's too short. i went crazy today went i found out my CD driver is stuck. in the end used a ruler to pry the freaking thing open. haha. violence does solve some matters. anyway, i'm also now officially chasing a new anime other than Naruto Shippuden and Bleach. it is *drum rolls* Devil May Cry! it is supposed to be an anime based on the popular game. however, according to some of the comments on youtube, it seems tha the artists are doing a pretty bad job in making the main character as he now has a totally different personality compared to the game. i wouldn't know the difference as i've never played the game.

anyway, a short synopsis about the anime: this dude is the offspring of a woman and a demon. and he is now like a bounty hunter for demons and has this shop opened for customers, knowns as Devil May Cry. And thus the name. He likes pizza, strawberry sundae and is always being pushed around by his girl friends and is always broke. there is no proper plot so far as the episodes so far seem to be totally unlinked episodes. even though i'm an anime watcher who goes mostly for storyline, the fighting part between demons and the main character is way cool! that's what drawn me to it. furthermore, the artists impersonation of the 3D version of the main character in the game in the anime is way cool. need to watch more of it and pick up some new anime doodling skills! woo.

damn the guns are so cool.
P.S if you didnt realise, i've never said the main character's name yet. that's cause i don't remember. ha.

Promos. are officially over.

2007-09-28T05:16:00.000-07:00

it's been an awesome week.

reason number 1: guess who's back?

Master Chief! in the third series: Halo 3! Finish the fight! Halo fans rejoice! *cheers* and i missed the "welcome back" party at suntec. due to stupid promos. !@#$

from what i've heard from those who have played it, there are so many new cool features of halo 3. including new weapons: like a flamethrower, spike grenades etc. and a kill score/point system to compare skills between 2 co op players in campaign. like time crisis! halo 3 campaign revolves around the fight alongside master chief and arbiter on the same side. im positively drooling thinking about it! i want my 360! i want my halo 3!

pity though, that this is probably the last instalment of the halo series. well at least there's halo wars to wait for. and halo movie next year i think. halo Mania!

reason number 2: promos are OVER!

officially over! for me. and those taking the same combi.

the whole week was insane. with somedays having 2 subs on the same day. like physics and econs! i had a headache while doing section C of physics. probably due to brain damage. nvr constantly sat down to think for so long. but there's one thing that ticks me off. it's knowing that the subject i studied most for: chemistry is probably going to be the one i'm going to do the worst in. after the MYE, i've been doing tutorials and assignments of chem. and now.. sigh. could'nt even finish the paper. after all the practice. what i've done wrong i do not know. and subjects like Math which i didn't study much was the one that was like a breeze to me. :S whatever.

like what the wise man on the mountain once said: aim low and you shall not fall as hard.
if i get retained due to failure in chem. i might just kill myself.

spent the last day of promos playing soccer with the guys of 07S201. good game people. haha. even though the PE department teachers keep coming out to tell those people playing in uniform to stop playing. haha. then went to zhiguan's house again to play Risk. well i actually intended to. but in the end played Command and Conquer for the first time on his computer. i really catch no balls in that game. sigh.

i went to tampines mall today with el-man to buy tickets to the Black Sabbath concert. the tickets quite expensive and i hope it's worth it. then went to his house to play Halo 2. its the way we people who haven't gotten the 360 or halo 3 "commemarate" the return of MC. *salutes* lol. i just found out i've sucked after not touching the controller for like. wat? 6 months? then we played fifa and some war game which i got stuck at the tutorials. lol. then we played WWE! haha. the funniest game ever. we zhng-ed our own wrestlers. they look so shittily funny! with clown masks and big head small bodies! pimp my wrestler. lol! at about 5pm i went home to take a break from all those visual-imparing devices. to find myself back at the computer blogging. how ironic.

okay. long post again. gtg.

promos!

2007-09-20T05:48:00.000-07:00

Songs listened during post: Carnival of Rust - Poets of the Fall

I'm home after a day of mugging at MJC. Left home at 8.45 after a quick DotA match in the morning. Went to study mathematics there. I did the MJ past promotional examination papers. It's so SIMPLE! I'm remotivated again. Haha. Hope the promos would be of the same standard though i doubt so. Then ate TomYam Cup Noodles for lunch and then played basketball with Jason and Edwin. I got in a few 3 pointers! Ahaa. I'm so pleased with myself.

Was discussing the overnight cycling trip with Jason again. Hm. I'm really worried i might meet Hantu on that night sia. I would pee in my pants and go crazy. And I'm quite sure my mom would reject the idea and lock me up for asking for her approval.

Halo 3 is coming out on the 25th! And I'm gonna miss the Halo party at Suntec due to the promos. And I don't think I can buy the limited edition Halo 3 CD. And the Xbox 360 at the end of the year is still a maybe thing. I'm craving for it so much. Just looking at the previews make me feel like mashing the controllers. Haha. Guess I'm really a person who loves my games.

Okay. Nothing much to say already. Record for shortest post!
End Post. 7 days to end of promos, 5 days to end the war - - and still counting down
