The feeling's irresistable and thats how we move it.

I could not ask for more than this time together,
I could ask for more than this time with you.
Every prayer has been answered,
Every dream I've had's come true.
Right here in this moment,
Is right where that I meant to be.
Ohh here with you, here with me.

And these are the moments,
I know heaven must exist.
And these are the moments,
I know all I need is this,
I have all I've waited for,
And I could not ask for more.

Edwin Mccain- These are the moments

2008-03-15T12:24:00.003+08:00

6 HOURS to 2LT.

Wingline is really rowdy and noisy right now.

Doors banging, people screaming and cheering.

Cam Whores whipping out cameras capturing any candid moment possible. (i'm guilty of that too)

The parade's bound to wow all that are present.

Can't wait, for the declaration of commission!

This is a day of lasts, but yet, a day of firsts too.

2008-03-13T19:57:00.005+08:00

2 MORE DAYS TO 2LT!
36 hours.

doors banging. people screaming and cheering. super high morale.
singing, dancing, planning for missions to rape fellow platoon mates, chilling with instructors.

all these never seem possible in echo wing, but it's happening now.

days of rehearsals.
dry, wet, cold or cool, we trained hard just for 1 hour of glory, and perfect syncronisation.

and it's the day where the wing, each individual, will assume great responsiblity.

echo wing, keluar, baris!
2 more NIGHTS! woot!

2008-02-10T14:08:00.000+08:00

happy chinese new year!

all that i can say would be this cny hols were really busy.

defence ops orders, reflections for ex crescendo, and even the journal update which i'm still stuck somewhere at jcc.

not forgetting the cwsm weekly reports which i haven't completed during my wing appointment tour. haha.

still, the reunions and visits were great and i kinda ate quite a bit. every relative that i meet has the same thing to say about me. Firstly it's the height, which they somehow deduce that i've grown taller by alot, which i actually haven't grown taller more than 2cm. Secondly, they also commented on the amount of weight i lost. Haha, that one is true though. Anyway, i really enjoyed the reunions since we haven't met in quite a while.

here's wishing all of you a great year ahead! (:

tengyi.

2008-02-02T20:24:00.000+08:00

today's 10km csb run didn't turn out as bad as we thought it would be, since we haven't run long distances in weeks.

i guess 10km in 46mins is pretty decent.

wing sergeant major's as funny as ever, esp during today's commander's parade rehearsal.

atp's coming up this mon and tues, hopefully we'll do more than what's expected.

5 days to cny.

i'm glad that i'm getting my No.1 tailor made for free. haha. at the very least i won't look odd in a set which doesn't fit me.

6 weeks to 2LT.

2008-02-02T05:35:00.002+08:00

i'm still the cadet wing sergeant major.

poor lionel's on a couple of days of attn C, so i've got to continue my term to stand in for him.

we're gonna be inspected for our No.1 uniforms, hopefully i'll get mine tailor made cause i couldn't find one that fits me well.

(:

welcome back.

2008-01-30T19:40:00.000+08:00

ex lancer's over.
ex crescendo's over, with ex finale I finally off my mind.
now my CWSM tour is about to end in 20 hours.
haha, yeah!
it's time for my break.

24 days to joint term.
44 days to commissioning parade.
heh.

the wing's really in high morale now, which is definitely a good thing as at the very least, i know we have happy people here.
there's a probability that due to the increase in estrogen levels within our cluster, the energy and wayang level of the wing multiplied tenfold.
yeah, we're talking about tango wing platoon 1. hahaha.
it's a fresh and new concept, looking at a platoon of girls who are soon to become officer cadets.

anyway, i've got to look for a comms ball date, lol.

and this is for hwee hwee. her cca committee is doing a valentines day sales, so go check out www.happylittlemiss.blogspot.com for more details!

it's great to be back in ocs once more. (:
JOINT TERM!

up and down this avenue.

2007-11-11T11:08:00.000+08:00

can't believe i spent the entire day reading the papers and magazines.

And i realised Shao Peng's really funny, all his comments while marching up could make you puke blood. So it has been 52 times up, 52 times down. 5 more to go.

aaaahhhhh we're going to wear the same pair of wet boots for 5 days straight at tekong tmw......

alright i told myself that i must finish the platoon's V3R by lunch, so i've got about 20 mins to do it. hahahaha.

random thoughts.

2007-11-08T18:32:00.000+08:00

Cpt John's SDO today! Haha.
Mok and Colin got to book out in the end, after having to wait for their 11Bs.

I've been decorating the bunk with more photos and pasting of stuff here and there.
I've also been surfing the net, trying to kill time. too bad we can't access youtube eh.

After going through hunter, i kinda became a lot more less confident in jungle closed terrain navigation. Which subsequently affects my mentality towards JCC. Kinda worried now.

Oh well, yst when i was with peiyuan and the rest at sentosa, on our way out to vivocity, we felt very sua gu, cause we've been cut off from the world for so long. I'm kinda looking forward to the next mega off in lieu week, muahahahaha.

Half the time goes by
Suddenly you’re wise
Another blink of an eye
The sun is getting high
We're moving on...

100 years- five for fighting

the good guys vs the not so good ones.

2007-11-07T22:41:00.000+08:00

Just came back from HQ.
Cars at Carpark I.
Parents waiting.
But it doesn't matter.
The 15 ish or so of us are gonna stay together.

Mind-boggling, frustrating random thoughts from the day's happenings:
Some days when you're lucky, you get the good guys.
For the other days when you're not a tad too lucky, then the ******* plays with you.
My sympathies to Colin, Jin Quan and Mok. really.

happy deepavali.

2007-11-07T19:58:00.000+08:00

Mental strength.
Fighting spirit.
Resilience.
Motivation.
Determination.

So we're watching the entire school book out now, and the feeling sucks.
OCS is going to be creepily quiet tmw for the entire day.
And Shao Peng's gonna keep me company. Wahaha. and other peeps from the othe platoons too.
Sometimes, we ask ourselves as we march up, how the hell did we do it?
And we'd both just remain silent, and break out in laughter.
Probably as what Cpt Jason said, this is going to make us stronger.

Since Colin and Jeremy Mok joined us, i managed to make Pessimistic Shao Peng a lot more open and much less depressed.
Well, tmw's the 14th day! heh.

And we can't really complain, given that wing cohesion was kinda like a technical break, and i managed to get some decent food. (:
speaking of wing cohesion, it was really fun, the wing really did kinda bond further. Not to mention throwing cpt jason into the sea. Hahahahaha.
Crossing fingers that there won't be a Wing Cohesion part 2 on sunday. lol. brrrrrrrrrrr.

Happy deepavali! Haha. I think i'll get the rest here to celebrate the festival of lights later on. Muahahahahaha.

2007-11-07T19:11:00.000+08:00

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

Rod Stewart

confinement.

2007-11-04T07:38:00.000+08:00

hooray. i can't believe i'm confined. luckily i've the company of a few guys from my platoon.

so the guys booked out last night, and a lot of them offered to help me get stuff when they're out there in the civilian world. it really meant a lot. haha. peiyuan, rawter and samuel kept asking me throughout the day if i needed anything. Dang, i owe them a favour.

Anyway, ExHunter was omgosh. GG for ExHunter II. Kept getting cramps on my legs 'cause we DIDN'T COOL DOWN after SEOC. That was really smart. As we were walking and at the end point of hunter most guys were crampin' up. Oh well, My navex team still has a long way to go before we have the chemistry in us as a team.

CAN'T WAIT FOR JCC.

as we march along moonlight bay.

2007-09-25T20:02:00.000+08:00

today's a really special day for route march, just imagine cadets in platoon level marching with lanterns in their hands, along the coastal road.
Not only that, we're going to have mooncakes and tea for nightsnack. lol.
alright, the mooncake part is real! we had mooncakes as desserts for lunch today.

the arty cadets are getting really rowdy, but i can't blame them, cause if i were one of them, i'd be making a lot of noise given the fact i'd probably be much higher than them.

it feels great to be at the end of service term. really great.

change is really really good.

2007-09-25T19:23:00.000+08:00

MAHER's my new bunk buddy. hahahahahahaha.
long live section 3.

your left, your left, your left right!

2007-09-23T19:04:00.000+08:00

sispec warriors all the way!
tues 16km route march and thurs 6km fast march pwned the pure bloods.
can't believe we owned them.

but still, it was tough, the instructors were really pushing everyone to their limits. i can't imagine what's going to happen for the coming 23km route march this tuesday.

i haven't really gotten time to talk about the life at OCS since i crossed over from SISPEC, but i've got to say i'm having a jolly good time, even though discipline is tight and freedom is very limited.
i'd put up a post once service term ends this wed! haha.

to all those leaving for artillery, all the best. ):
too bad i ain't gonna get the chance to meet my sispec platoon mates at khatib camp.

poof! change is good.

2007-09-21T02:16:00.000+08:00

test!
i thought that this picture looked pretty awesome, so the blog's changed.
the clock's great too.
i better start blogging often now, cause the negative influences in terms of language usage in conversations will set in soon, if i don't practice writing or speaking in fluent English. All hail the great SAF.

2007-09-09T02:44:00.000+08:00

Booked Out at 11pm, and we're gonna book in at 7pm today.

we miss sispec.

as we strive to lead, to excel, to overcome, we will always remember; WITH PRIDE WE LEAD in our hearts.

a turning point lies ahead.

2007-08-25T23:57:00.000+08:00

it's close... almost there.

anyway, here's wishing jow a happy 19th birthday, went over to his house earlier with the class. this dude got himself a new 22 inch lcd monitor which most of us were marveled by it.

and all the best to hong who's going for his exercise in ROC for 33 days. Have fun cleaning the barrel, hehs.

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial

i do it out of genuine interest and dedication.

as the days goes by...

2007-07-29T20:33:00.000+08:00

hello world.

alright i got to book-in in an hour's time.
just came home from getting my food stash and other supplies that i'll be needing, haha.
it's already week 6, and day by day i hope i'd get what i want. which i believe i will.
we're gonna be doing section live firing this week, as well as the all time favorite, SOC.

We've been wondering, "we" referring to my section mates, as to why the song "Purple Light" has a verse that says SOC sibei jialat, IPPT Lagi worse.

We on the other hand, believe that it should go the other way around, as SOC is really LAGI WORSE.

the heart's beating once more.

2007-07-29T04:20:00.000+08:00

i'm alive.
ahaha.

2007-02-26T20:21:00.000+08:00

Happy lunar new year everyone.

2007-01-15T00:02:00.000+08:00

2007-01-14T23:56:00.000+08:00

You outta hear this song.
Check it out to the right, and press play.

Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak.

Lips of an angel
Hinder.

2006-12-13T02:27:00.000+08:00

I'll be there for you, these five words I swear to you
When you breathe I wanna be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
I'd steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what love can do
I'll be there for you

Jon Bon Jovi

It's such a desperate and sad song.
But it's very sincere.

2006-12-12T23:24:00.000+08:00

So dear ol tengy has all the time in the world to waste till april and he decided to pick up some good books to read. I decided to pick up Mitch Albom's - For one more day, since his other book, Tuesdays with Morrie wasn't that bad, and i picked up Frommer's guide to Europe too.

Anyway, For One More Day's about the life of a guy named Charley, and his mum. And its about the power of a mother's eternal love.

This is an excerpt that i found quite interesting, so as to say. ummhmm.

"You know for three years after I married your father, I wished for a child. In those days, three years to get pregnant, that was a long time. People thought there was something wrong with me. So did I."
She exhaled softly. "I couldn't imagine a life without children. Once I even ... Wait. let's see."
She guided me toward the large tree on the corner near our house.
"This was late one night, when I couldn't sleep." She rubbed her hand over the bark as if unearthing an old treasure. "Ah. Still there."
I leaned in. The word PLEASE had been carved into the side. Small crooked letters. You had to look carefully, but there it was. PLEASE.
"What is it?"
"A prayer."
"For a child?"
She nodded.
"For me?"
Another nod.
"On a tree?"
"Trees spend all day looking up at God."
I made a face.
"I know." She lifted her hands in surrender.
"You're so corny, Mom."
"So," she said. moving away, "now you know how badly someone wanted you, Charley. Children forget that sometimes. They think of themselves as a burden instead of a wish granted."

------

Maybe that'll help me survive, esp when mothers experience menopause.Hah.
And this book, which is relatively thin, took me like 3 weeks to complete, since there's so much jazz going on after 'A's. Well, looks like its gonna simmer down as ppl get into ns. ):

2006-12-02T20:43:00.000+08:00

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

Starlight
I will be chasing the starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

But I'll never let you go
If you promised not to fade away
Never fade away

They're AWFULLY awesome.

2006-11-24T21:29:00.000+08:00

Just send away
Please let me stay
Coming your way
I can live forever here.

2006-11-16T13:00:00.000+08:00

2006-11-03T21:16:00.002+08:00

And if you keep falling down
Don’t you dare give in
You will arise safe and sound
So keep pressing on steadfastly
And you’ll find what you need to prevail
Once you say
I can make it through the rain.

I can make it through the rain
it really helps.

14 days.
i'm fucked.

2006-10-16T10:22:00.000+08:00

sigh. post graduation depression's still on. and the weird thing was that i was telling everyone that i am so glad i'm leaving cj. and now i'm like going hai.... the entire day. i'm going to miss everyone! :[

i was reading the letter thingy that everyone wrote and it really brought lots of laughter.
ken's msg was:"ethelina misses gazine's rose petals! innervate me!"
my fav msg is written by irvin:"tengother, thanks for keeping the class together."
and i shall not talk about hong's and edwin's msges. haha. tsk.

guess that it was right to volunteer myself as the class welfare rep eh? i really had lots of fun in planning all the outings and chalets. and most importantly, sorry to the ppl that i didn't plan any birthday thingy. it's not that i forgot, since the class list is on my tiny notice board in my room, but it's because it was really hellish collecting class funds for it. but still, it was really fun. (:

go ahead and tag whatever you feel after reading the previous post. sad sad.

18 days.

graduation. memory lane. 2005-2006.

2006-10-15T09:57:00.000+08:00

Graduation Day!

I decided to do a long photo post, which clearly illustrates how far I have come over the last 2 years. The grad day photos are arranged in an order whereby the latest photos are first, and it goes all the way back to January 2005. At the end of the post, i included photos from NYAA, which were very very significant moments with extremely wild and happy ppl. At last, who could have forgotten my Ventures peers, and therefore, yep, photos of these ppl as well.

Let's talk about yesterday's ceremony first. It was definitely memorable, with Brother paul going through all the past events that we've had, reflections, prayers and the collar pin thingy. It was until the video montage that really struck me how CJ has changed me, together with the company of my peers. Iggy was five seats to my left, and towards the end of the video when a particular photo appeared, i could hear his distinct "what the fuc*" and edwin's loud sniggering. I'm so sure that vanessa, wherever she was seated at in the auditorium, was laughing so hard till she fell off the chair. I did laugh hard though, poor thing, so busted. It was nth la actually. haha igs. Anyway, I watched the video once more when i came home, and definitely, i have to declare i love cj. awwww. i was talking to edwin moments ago, and we both agreed that it's quite sad, that we only felt the sadness after the grad ceremony, when we were already moving out of school and continuing with life yst. The familiar faces that i know, the friendly HI! and the ever watchful eyes of Mr Michael Tan, are all gonna be missed. I'd miss IGGY'S EDWIN'S AND AUG'S company the most, definitely... thanks guys for the fantastic year. But most importantly, i'd miss my teachers, my classmates and my other peers, which i've got to know of in a way or another. thanks everyone!

let's begin.

Grad ceremony:

TO7 peeps. we agreed that this pic's darn nice.

wah!, miss "beckham" (haha), yan, deng and teng.

thanks to edwin who saved my ass so many times during econs. phew.

Mr Loh KL. last physics class. Awww.
i'd miss his weird philosophies.
"everyday dying dying... do sth about it!"
it's a pity that he's going to acjc to teach from next year onwards,
cj would lose its only physics teacher that is capable of teaching.
GG TO CJ PHYSICS DEPT.

Mr Chai. Last math tut. "Huh Serious ah!?"
Mr Chai is very funny. He once told hong this:
"Wah i stop writing then you stop writing,
when i stop rubbing (the board) what you rub?"
next thing that happened? instant laughter.
I'd miss him too. he's going to retire for the second time, lol.
such as dedicated teacher is hard to come by.

i like this pic. haha. iggy took it.

this is one classic pic of wallace. good shot. pssss, he doesn't know.

t jow as always.... he was intrigued by the colour swap function.

NYAA: NDP @ PADANG!

Ah this one.

Where do i even begin? Okay, i must say that Mr Tan Hoe Teck had faith in me to approve my proposal to initiate and manage such a large scale CIP all by myself. After intense training for 3 months and the final performance on National Day last year, all the people i knew and interacted with definitely bonded together closer. As there were 300 J1s participating in it, i didn't have the chance to know everyone well but still, at least i know all their names and their faces. Haha. There were numerous occasions when Mr Tan scolded ppl, times where we laughed, times we finally achieved results and almost every minute in June to August were extremely stressful for me. However, I really hope that you guys enjoyed yourself last year, and it was really comforting to hear from my classmates that they really did. That's the greatest reward i'd get.

Here it comes, fond memories...

T25!

i think there are 200 ppl in this photo.

my capable leaders for grand finale. without their help i'd die.

act 2!

my grand finale leaders once more... they pulled me over for this, when i was running away to find act 1.. haha.

act 1 peeps. wallace, jow, eug, ken, hong and henry.

my reliable sji friends who offered their help. thanks guys!

shiyan, teng, edwyn, chuan wei. with their sang nila float.

rehearsing. i like this picture a lot.

act one at their first padang rehearsal.

haha, post rehearsal fun...

NYAA: BINTAN OCIP

I'll keep it short. It was fun, fun and more fun.
I could interact with everyone on this trip pretty well, thanks to the NDP CIP which most of them participated.
It also opened my eyes to many many things.

planting dudes. teng, ck, teck siang, jianye.

mangrove trek!

kelong pic! we stayed up the whole night star gazing, and waited for the sunrise. (:

i love them. great ppl.

Bintan grp.

NYAA: PULAU TINGGI XP

Held in Apr this year, this trip wouldn't have been crapulous fabulous if not for iggy, debo and their friends. Like the bintan trip, almost everyone there took part in last year's NDP and i kinda knew them. Or rather they knew me. But still, it was easy to get along with them and it was uuuuuuuuuber fun.

my tinggi pals. iggy, geraldson and myself.
Geraldson was also my Outward Bound Watch mate. (:

trekking. tengyi, parvin, daryl, vanessa and oops i forgot her name.

on the ferry. i love these ppl la... thanks to them it was a fantastic trip.

tengyi, dezmand, deborah and parvin.

last day at the resort! :(

we did some crazy stuff on the walkway.

tinggi trip ftw!

FIRST 3 MONTHERS: T07!

oh my god these ppl are the bestest best ppl i have ever known and i still miss all of them sooo much today! All the crazy things we've done, crazy ppl in the class and Mr Ang, have left a deep impression in me and i'd never forget them. It's impossible to forget them rather. Thank goodness we still stay in touch with one another! (:

at acjc's fun o rama.

andrew's house!

nice photo laaa.

SJI:

SJI is the greatest thing in my life that has happened so far.. Till today, i miss EVERYTHING there. EVERYTHING. I miss the uniform, the ppl, the school and everything else. If there were a time machine, i'd re-live my SJI days again.

MY CLASS

thats miss periasamy. i always felt bad whenever i had to talk to her. she had to tilt her head up so much...

SCOUTS ---> VENTURES

It's really ironic. I didn't make it through during the sec 1 selection. And the next day when i asked mr Gregory again, he told me and fey mun that we're in. And we were so happy that we couldn't stop smiling the whole day. A few years on, i wondered why did i join scouts for. And it was only in sec 3, that i truly experienced real brotherhood, besides the usual backstabbing here and there, scouts was rather fun. I'm glad...

Memories like the sudden fall in in sec 1 at our second meeting... and i was made IC....
cause i changed in the store.... haha. and we pumped like 30 i think.
for my fault. ):
it still stays in many of our hearts. right zongbing?

2006 Scout and ventures photo.

Ventures with Mr Lui.

Post Annual Parade.

backwoodsman with the good ol peeps.

night hike.

tengs with gerald. on our way from harbourfront to pasir ris park. thats only day one and its a bloody 38km walk. this is one of the hikes i'll never forget. neither would i forget kar loon's cca hike, as well as my first class hike with zippy wu.

Venture Night 2005.

I think Malcolm's suit's too small for me.

Stepping up 2006. i like this photo.

zips, chuan wei, edwyn and tengs.

And here's featuring Edwyn! Greatest pal i know of.

Ahhh, memories. memories. too much emotions. Sad, sobs, sighs and goodbyes. If only it could last longer... if only it could...

I BELIEVE IN YOU

Lonely the path you have chosen
A restless road, no turning back
One day you will find your light again
Don't you know
Don't let go be strong

Follow your heart
Let your love lead through the darkness
Back to a place you once knew
I believe I believe I believe in you
Follow your dreams
Be yourself an angel of kindness
There's nothing that you cannot do
I believe I believe I believe in you

Tout seul tu t'en iras tout seul
Coeur ouvert à l'univers
Poursuis ta quête
Sans regarder derrière
N'attends pas
Que le jour se lève

Suis ton étoile
Vas jusqu'où ton rêve t'emporte
Un jour tu le toucheras
Si tu crois
Si tu crois
Si tu crois en toi

Suis ta lumière
N'éteins pas la flamme que tu portes
Au fond de toi souviens toi
Que je crois
Que je crois
Que je crois en toi

Someday I'll find you
Someday you'll find me too
And when I hold you close
I know that it's true

Follow your heart
Let your love lead through the darkness
Back to a place you once knew
I believe I believe I believe in you
Follow your dreams
Be yourself an angel of kindness
There's nothing that you cannot do
I believe I believe I believe in you

tripod. circle of trust.

21 DAYS.
to A levels. OMG.

And i can't wait for Friday. YES! It marks the end of school term and off we go for our study break. Sadly, unlike SJI where i was really reluctant to leave, i just can't wait for all this to end in CJ. Though on the other hand, when we graduate, it means we're bloody close to A levels. And that's not good. with so many things to do. Graduation's tmw and i plan to run all over school to snap pictures with ppl that i got to know in a way or another. Just wanna keep memories of the nice ppl i've got to know and not forgetting my dearest class, along with the tripod. Haha.

About the tripod.
I swear that Iggy, Edwin and myself are bastards.
Haha, school's never boring thanks to these two fellas, and i'll never forget them. I'll miss the teasing and crazy moments, that's for sure.

I have no idea what to comment next.
...

2006-10-08T18:47:00.000+08:00

thanks to everyone who remembered!
to those who celebrated with me, and those who sent the smses, thank you very much! (:

it really did brighten up my day! (:

pictures.

2006-10-06T19:04:00.000+08:00

LONG OVERDUE!
guess i'd post these pics up. haha.

5 guys staring at a billboard. you can imagine what we're doing.

wallace seriously is the craziest jungle boy i've got to know of.

there he goes again. ???

that is a picture of trevor's drawing during math class. its pretty obvious.

that's a rare sight.

look at the prices. 80GB IPOD.

Dan and nicole after blading.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

its the haze. it's thick.

iggy displaying his ability to charm aunties for free kaya toast.
mind you, he's dangerous. BEWARE.

Ed's birthday. Paper bag full of trash.

And what a surprise! More trash!

18.

The aftermath. A rite of passage.

i picked this up and put it right in iggy's face.
maybe she'd need it, not him hur.

trevor has this peculiar habit of grabbing my phone to .....
it's only one of the many he took.
the rabbit ears were courtesy of wallace.

its profound. look carefully at the mag i'm holding.

iggy's smoking nightmare.
you'd guess what he dreamt without a prob.

dear ol irvin playing a sad song for sad sad tengyi.

iggy thinking of sam. or maybe not.
might be victim no. 76543G.

red bull.

2006-10-02T07:37:00.000+08:00

So Hady won the second season of Sg Idol six days ago. He doesn't deserve it. Don't wanna talk about the reasons he won, since it might cause another Hock Lee bus riot and i might be put behind bars. So much for Freedom of speech eh. As usual, tengyi with his lame jokes 101, began telling the world what the hell dear ol hady's gonna endorse. And damn it, it's true.

So we all know that Taufik, with his debut single "I dream", ended up endorsing good ol big gulp. And for that lame series he acted in with the other top few contestants, it appears he worked at 7-11. So our national star got his dream of working there aye. So much for "I dream".

And the newly crowned idol, hady, with his new debut single, "You give me wings", would most likely be seen in ads promoting red bull. Got the catch? Cause red bull gives you wings.

Alright i admit that this is darn lame, but still, haha.

omg. help.

2006-09-21T15:01:00.000+08:00

42 days.

its now or never.

birthday surprise

2006-09-19T16:53:00.000+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JO!

haha, have a great day girl! (:

also, here's wishing Lingyi a belated happy birthday!

new song. love. dying.

2006-09-19T14:01:00.000+08:00

Now Playing:

It's turning out just another day
i took a shower and i went on my way
i stop there as usual
had a coffee and pie
when i turned to leave
i couldn't believe my eyes
standing there i didn't know what to say
without one touch
we stood there face to face

and i was dying inside to hold you
i couldn't believe what i felt for you
dying inside i was dying inside
but i couldn't bring myself to touch you

you said hello then you asked my name
i didn't know if i should go all the way
inside i felt my life have really changed
i knew that it would never be the same
standing there i didn't know what to say
first time looked away when i whispered your name

and i was dying inside to hold you
i couldn't believe what i felt for you
dying inside i was dying inside
but i couldn't bring myself to touch you

i was dying inside to hold you
i couldn't believe what i felt for you
dying inside i was dying inside
but i couldn't bring myself to touch you

you said hello then u asked me my name
i didn't know if i should go all the way
inside I felt my life have really been changed
i knew that it would never be the same

one hello changed my life
i didn't believe in love at first sight
but you've shown me what is life
and i now i know my love (i know it's coming right)

and i was dying inside to hold you
i couldn't believe what i felt for you
dying inside i was dying inside
but i couldn't bring myself to touch you
i was dying inside to hold you
i couldn't believe what i felt for you
dying inside i was dying inside
but i couldn't bring myself to touch you

song.

2006-09-18T06:59:00.000+08:00

Currently playing:

You dont have to move, you don't have to speak
Lips for biting.
You're staring me down, a glance makes me weak
Eyes for striking
Now im twisted up when i'm twisted with you
Brush so lightly
And time trickles down, and i'm breathing for two
Squeeze so tightly.
I'll be fine, you'll be fine.
This moment seems so long
Don't waste now, precious time
We'll dance inside the song.

What makes the one to shake you down?
Each touch belongs to each new sound
Say now you want to shake me too
Move down to me, slip into you
She sinks in my mind as she sheds through her skin
Touch sight taste like fire
Hands do now what eyes no longer defend
Hands to fuel desire
I'll be fine, you'll be fine
This moment seems so long
Don't waste now, precious time
We'll dance inside the song

What makes the one to shake you down?
Each touch belongs to each new sound
Say now you want to shake me too
Move down to me, slip into you

Ooo, ahOoo, ahOoo, ahOoo, ah (x 2)

And I'll be fine, you'll be fine
Is this fine?
I'm not fine
Give me pieces, give me things to stay awake

What makes the one to shake you down?
Each touch belongs to each new sound
Say now you want to shake me too
Move down to me, slip into you

What makes the one to shake you down?
Each touch belongs to each new sound
Say now you want to shake me too
Move down to me, slip into you
Move down to me slip into you...

NOTICE

2006-09-13T05:48:00.000+08:00

I don't know why, but this blog only works on FIREFOX, you'll get an ERROR msg when you use IE.

Enjoy.

two words:
F_ CKED _P.
i would like to buy a vowel please.

yay, studied for physics and it ended like how it would be if I didn't study.

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

There's a verse in there that would serve well for iggy as well. haha.

we love newton.

2006-09-12T01:45:00.000+08:00

The rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the resultant force acting on it, and the change in momentum takes place in the direction of the force. (2nd Law, eeks.)
Every particle in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of masses of the particles and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. (Bloody newton's law of gravitation, frigging long.)
Its good that its in my head, but its not so good considering the rest i still have to memorise. god bless econs.
Anw, dear J2s in the world out there, all the best for prelims! (:

magical time.

2006-09-10T23:12:00.000+08:00

went to sch to mug, ended up doing essays instead. so during lunch break, which took quite a while, we went to adam food centre for nasi lemak and after that we went over to island creamery at serene, to erm, take a look at photos. heh. and we went into a game shop too. managed to do some math before doing circuit exercises with edwin and henry. after 2 months, we could barely breathe during our 4th lap. so yea, every muscle is aching right now.

The library is almost done, although after taking a peek at it, it's still nothing compared to the SJI library. It's not only comfy, yet somehow, you'll feel determined to get to work in there. Still, at least there's an air-conditioned area to mug for A levels, and yay, it's lighted with yellow light instead of white fluorescent tubes.

This one is specially for Adeline:

6H after our class dance item.

out of those in 6H, i've seen szehow, yingqi and adeline recently. the others? haha, haven't seen them in a long time.
the days in Ai Tong were great, of course, the stories of how Miss Feng Guanyan (the bully monitress) tortured the Class monitor. which was me la. lol. And of course i have thank both Seans, Koh and Wong for their help with the Gameboy. Haha.

Let's take a look at how T25 has changed.

2005:

2006:

personally i hate how i look in this candid pic. lol.

the difference in t25? see for yourself.

2006-08-27T23:08:00.000+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO T. JOW AND AUGUSTINE!

we love cj for its idiosyncrasies.

2006-08-26T12:22:00.000+08:00

I'd like to thank everyone who knew about it and showed their concern. thanks, it really helped. (:

Okay let's talk about cj. the beauty it possesses, and the wonderful campus and people that revolve around it. And let's begin with the toilet in the Performing arts centre. I think the school believes the new toilets in school would automatically clean itself after scores of people used it when there's something up in the PAC. Apparently, the toilet's self cleaning system malfunctioned and there was an ambrosial "redolence" that welcomed us into the theatre. Had to sit on the steps since there weren't enough seats for all students and teachers, and the air-conditioning made everything freeze in time. The big man in white's speech caused panick, since i'm sure that i procrastinate quite a bit.

And there are other times where we would spend time arguing with adamantly bull - headed teachers, even though you are right in every single way he'll just quibble his way through. I'm sure jonathan understands what i'm talking about.

And surprisingly, i've got to realise that our hardcore and philosophical PE teacher Mr Isaac Lim, is not as relentless as we thought of him to be.

Anw, school aside, i think i've got to buy another external hdd, my old one's almost full. Prelims are coming and there's always hope for miracles to happen, such as to be able to understand everything about Physics and Econs on the day before the exam. so everyone, don't lose heart and push on. (: night study ftw guys.

hooray for ed. congrats to dan.

2006-08-21T13:12:00.000+08:00

Finally, someone with a better phone than mine, though we're almost on par, but yours is better. haha. his n80 boasts an awesome interface and an uber 3 megapixel camera. Ed, enjoy the camera, seriously, it pwns, and i know. thank goodness you got the silver version, the other one spoils everything. Congrats to daniel, for winning nicole's heart! haha.

Couldn't bear to sit and watch our dear Mr Lee talk his head off, so i attempted to read up on physics. still, it wouldn't help much and the flashbacks are distracting.

i forgot how it felt to cry.

after 5 days, yesterday was the cremation at mandai and emotions were unavoidable. i nearly forgot how it felt like to cry. Grandma was crying when the hearse left, and after service she cried again. At the viewing hall before cremation as the coffin was pushed in, everyone in there was crying, mum cried, that's typical, and for the first time, i saw dad cry, while saying last words to grandpa. Recollecting the 17 years with grandpa, it was then when tears began to flow, no matter how hard i tried to hold them back. I'm not sure if aunt did, but my nieces who were standing next to me cried it out hard and there was nothing to be done, except to let them continue.

This is the first funeral that i attended, well actually second, just that the first was like my great grandma's and i was a small kid and i don't recall anything. Thinking back now, i really cannot bear to lose my remaining 3 grandparents, or anyone at all. Mum wants me to go with dad on mon to collect the ashes and place them in the urn, so i guess i'll have to go in the morning and pop by later in the afternoon for physics mock. And physics mock would be another excruciating session, and i'm screwed. I barely have time to study for it.

Life is short, so live it to the fullest whenever you can. That's my philosophy for life now.

com's back. hooray.

2006-08-15T16:39:00.000+08:00

after intensive attempts at reviving the computer, at last, it's back and it feels great to be using the com once more, after quite some time. Econs mock paper was definitely a disaster as I wasn't prepared, so that basically boils down to GG for econs.
The new time table is simply awesome, though we are mentally prepared to see the blank slots filled up with extra lessons and remedials. that sucks doesn't it? but still, it's all in the preparation for the big thing in 80 odd days. so guys, persevere on!
i think i mentioned i'll be posting photos, but i've yet to. don't worry! i will, really soon okay? since there's like so many of them i'll like to share. gtg slp now.

time's up.

2006-08-15T15:35:00.000+08:00

can you imagine how fragile the human body is? and how susceptible it is to illnesses?
what about experiencing pain to the extent where it's like a day from hell?
Grandpa, on dad's side, has been at the hospital for nearly two weeks, and each time i visit him, i feel the pain he feels just by looking at him, even though i'm not that close to him.
mum says his blood pressure's declining and we don't know how long he'll last, since the cancer has spread to his bones and antibiotics and all other medicine are no longer effective. He's pretty old already, probably it's time. probably.

if anaesthetic lasts forever.

2006-08-01T08:23:00.000+08:00

ouch, it hurts.
left school early as i had to go for my dental appointment at alexandra hospital, and mr ong did not hesitate to sign me out for early leave. He even told me to "Bao Zhong" meaning take care, with a pat on my shoulder. Mr Ong Gak San, the class loves you. Haha. We'll talk about Mr Ong in a while. Back to my awfully painful teeth, the dentist decided to fill up the tooth that had decayed a little and though it did not hurt when she injected anaesthetic, the numbness was irritable at first. She spent like 30 mins operating on that tooth alone and after that, she cleaned the rest of my teeth. I dislike the sensation felt during this process, i don't know why, but it sent chills down my spine. On my way home, the area around the tooth hurts like @#$%*&! and i doubt that i'll be able to eat anything during dinner. boy, i'm hungry, didn't have anything for lunch at all.

Now back to Mr Ong, i have to thank him for putting up a good front for me when he met my parents during PTM. Even though he did mention about things such as my catastrophic mid year results, he never failed to encourage me and console my parents, by telling them that he has confidence in me and that i would make it to the university for sure. (: He's really great.

Watched the lake house last week and it was a good movie, though it could have been better. The way they met at the end of the show was a little weird and the ending was abrupt. The tree too! it was funny. haha.

i'm still working hard on my nyaa report, and i've got to hand it in to Mr Tan tmw, so i better start working now. The next post would most likely be a photo post, of pictures snapped ages ago.

i miss you so much that i don't know what to say.

2006-07-26T08:47:00.000+08:00

I, I can't read the future
But I still want to hold you close
Right now, I need that from you
So give me the morning
Sharing another day with you
Is all I want to know
And baby I, I've tried to forget you
But the light of your eyes
Still shines like an Angel
A spirit that won't let me go

And I, I didn't want to tell you
Things I didn't want to know myself
I was afraid to show
But you, you gave me a reason
A reason to face the truth, oh yes you did
To face the truth, face the truth
Face the truth
And baby I, I've tried to forget you
But the light of your eyes
Still shines, shines, shines like an Angel
A spirit that won't let me go

Won't let me go, let go of my heart
And baby I, I've tried to forget you
But the light of your eyes
Still shines like an Angel
A spirit that won't let me go
Won't let me go, my Angel.

great song, nice groovy tunes, and of course, the lyrics have some meaning for me.

it's all about making you mine eh?
which i should have dones so ages ago...
i'm such a fool.

psp frenzy. busy. nyaa. ventures.

2006-07-23T11:02:00.000+08:00

BUSY.
STRESSED.
LOADS TO BE DONE.
GOD HELP ME.

Yesterday was a great day at school, break was mostly spent in class watching trevor and augustine play naruto and bleach on their PSPs, oh yes, bryan and his GTA. Haha. It's really interesting to watch the way bryan plays GTA. The reasons for the moves he does are sometimes, weird and humorous. feel like getting one too huh. Then there was this hypothesis testing tutorial scramble we had, thanks to mr chai. tsk tsk.
Who could have forgotten henry for his help. thanks.

The words in bold sums up my week pretty much. And the following week too. There's a pile of econs to do, which i learnt that there's a price to everything your mouth speaks. Right guys? NYAA report is due soon, really soon, and i'm still at the first section. Ventures testimonials, accounts and loads more have to be completed tmr for the EXCO meeting. And there's physics test on tues. Hooray.

Wasted the morning and afternoon at Toa Payoh with the ventures and scouts collecting newspapers. Though it did bring back memories, of the days when we were scouts and the surprises that await us behind every door.

The only thing that makes me laugh these days are the episodes of desperate housewives, cause seriously, it's one damn good show. Final 3 eps. boo.

thoughts. that i wished you knew.

2006-07-22T16:17:00.000+08:00

have you ever wondered what's in store for you in the future?
would it be something that you dreamed or wished for?
or something that you knew you could have changed?
would you make mistakes and let opportunities slip by?
such as letting the girl you like pass by, or failing to achieve the goals you set?
how would you resolve these matters?
how would you...

***

sometimes i regret letting opportunities pass by, and the decisions that i made.

sometimes i yearn for things to be different, and i'll do anything, to atone and change all the things i've done.

happy birthday.

2006-07-17T09:41:00.000+08:00

Firstly, i've got to wish Shi Yan a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Thank god i checked my email and the first mail was, your friendster birthday reminder: Shiyan 16/7/88. geez, i keep forgetting the dates of impt days like these. Shiyan's a great guy, thanks for the wonderful times when we were in scouts. Bluesharks eh. and of course, the eggs. who could have forgotten. (:

National day is round the corner, and i can't wait to get to the National Day Parade! Well, thanks to my dad, i've been to every single national day parade since i was 10 months old, haha. Though what really excites me are the photo opportunities and fireworks, not the parade itself. Besides the typical kodak moments, I really enjoy taking photos at such events, cause there are so much to capture in a short span of time. That's where my canon ixus comes into handy, though i prefer to have a digital SLR. but well, there's nothing more that i could ask for. Speaking of fireworks earlier on, just f.y.i. for all those fireworks enthusiasts out there just like me, these are the dates of the days the Singapore Fireworks Festival are on:

The Shows begin at 9pm, at Marina Promenade.
1. Sat, 5 Aug 06, Team Italy, Theme's "Italia Forever!".
2. Tues, 8 Aug 06, Team Singapore, Theme's "Colours and Festive."
3. Fri, 11 Aug 06, Team New Caledonia, Theme's "Nature and Mystic."
4. Sat 12 Aug 06, Team France, Theme's "France Encore!"

I hope i can pop by all the shows. (:

somewhere only we know

2006-07-17T01:03:00.000+08:00

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know.

2006-07-14T12:43:00.000+08:00

OK i'm giving up trying to find out how to do the music thingy. There's this really nice ending song from fate/stay night that i would like to share, but i can't figure out how to. Can't wait for ken's new layout, he's working hard on it right now. Btw zy, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

One of the korean families next door have moved, and a singaporean family has bought the house over. it's really fast, cause they're moving over tmw. my mum does weird stuff, she invited them over in the evening and we got to know them quite a bit. they have 2 daughters, one's in NUS and the other's in SMU, and they have a son in queenstown sec. Their job is quite interesting, my mum says they own plantations and stuff in msia and etc. mum seems excited, but who cares anw, haha.

i'll leave it here then, supposed to be revising. heh.

broke. pirates!

2006-07-13T17:21:00.000+08:00

money money money, everything's about money. Had to pay for loads of stuff, t-shirt for national day walkathon, class photos, notes and more notes! They total up to at least a sum of 95 dollars! broke... And i have to pay 40 dollars for ventures subscription fees, and buy a donation draw booklet myself, which is 20 bucks. Hey ventures, you'll have to pay up soon, so START SAVING!

today's PE was GREAT. It's been a year and 3 months since we had a proper game for PE and Michael tan took us for softball. Had combined PE with T5 as usual, and it was fun. screw racial harmony day, it clashes with out PE slot next thurs. boo.

physics tutorial was quite fun, in a way it was, mr loh was in a very good mood and kept joking with us and of course, there's iggy a seat away from me and he never fails to entertain us. Poor henry, he went sniffing or rather, kept blowing his nose since early this morning till the end of the day, and he used 3 packets of tissue.

I'm sure everyone in class are having peaceful nights, since there are no ____ lessons this week. (: Btw GUYS, let's go watch pirates tmw please!

If i could figure out how to link music to the blog. multiply doesn't seem to work anymore.

results.

2006-07-13T11:51:00.000+08:00

ITALY FTW! WOOT!
Haha, firstly, ZIDANE'S headbutt is way cool! Pity that France lost, but who cares anyway, since italy won! yay. it was a great game, and when zidane scored the penalty at the 6th minute, Aug, Ed and myself were like devastated la, somehow. heh. Many thanks to Brother paul who gave us a late start to monday morning, though it wasn't much, it helped. (:

Got our results, and it was really quite expected, since there wasn't much effort put in this time round. Did quite well for GP, but i thought it would be better. Everyone in class seems to be actively revising for prelims now, since we did horrendously. It's kind of tense this week in class. Don't know why, but it's weird. Mr Chai, Loh, AND Mr Ong were very supportive, they kept telling us to work harder, what's done is done and all the stuff. blah. I think I let Mr Ong down a lot, i mean well, during PTMs, he always tries to put up a good front for me, and he's been concern all this while. I'm sure Ms Giam is very worried for us too.
Better work hard now.. (:

Tuesday's Oprah show was one of the most interesting and sweetest of all, it was the fantasy wedding edition, and i just went WOW during the entire show. It was really amazing.

bro paul rules.

2006-07-10T07:05:00.000+08:00

Friday's morning assembly was the best of all that we've had i believe, and it was when the entire school cheered in unison. school starts at 9am on monday, thanks to the world cup final showdown of france vs italy. That helps a little, though we end at 4pm on monday and the last period is PE. Michael tan's our PE teacher now, at least we're going to have proper games this time around. Anw, i'm hoping Italy wins!

2006-07-04T23:44:00.002+08:00

i was wondering why my blog looks disgusting on IE due to the ugly fonts. Testing fonts now.

such disappointment.

2006-07-04T13:48:00.000+08:00

England's out, which is not surprising as they did not play with beckham and rooney. Their attacking tactics were mediocre, goalkeeper sucked and penalty takers couldn't do shit. The shocking ones were france, who actually won brazil. Haha. I can't wait for the semi finals of the world cup, especially the Germany versus Portugal match.

Went out today with some t25 peeps, including daniel, trevor, shijie, augustine, ken and henry. caught a movie and shijie, aug and myself went down to paradiz for some pool. haven't been playing for months and i really suck now. Aug, it's true right? Jon didn't join us cause he was down with fever, rest well dude. lucky guy, mc till thurs eh. haha.

School's starting tmw and that means it's down to serious mugging. Prelims are somewhat 8 weeks away and I don't want to make history repeat itself again.

I read the newspaper forums a few weeks ago and there was this person whom wrote in suggesting that we should clear up after we eat at hawker centres, and i totally agree with her. I mean come on, whenever you go to a food centre and finally find a table that's not used, the mess on the table is digusting that sometimes it makes you lose your appetite. Have you ever seen people spitting stuff out of their mouths onto the table and throwing shells, bones and even used tissues they used to clean their mouths and blow their noses? I've seen my fair share of that. The fact that employing cleaners are extra costs to hawkers, which means they charge you more instead. Maybe prices might drop a little if they didn't have to pay that much for cleaners to clear tables. And of course, no one should be clearing up the mess that you made after eating, and i'm referring to the used tissues and crap. It's only right that one helps to maintain the cleanliness of the centre, since you won't lose a limb or two by clearing your used cutlery. Though one may argue that we're devoiding people of jobs which the government have been trying desperately to create, i'm sure they'll be much better off doing other jobs with proper training and etc. Summing up, not only you and others will get clean tables quickly, you would have a much pleasant meal without looking at the remains of what people before you scavenged and most importantly, you would spare people from taking up cleaning jobs since there're disgusting tasks you have to do. Or rather, Singaporeans have to be taught how to eat without causing a mess in the area around them.
Well i decided to blog about this as the recent sunday times had an article about this which invoked loads of thoughts when i read it. Hah, just ignore this post if you disagree since it's a junk post anyway.

god save sven.

2006-07-02T16:20:00.000+08:00

england had better do something or they're gonna frigging lose.
rooney's got a red and beckham's subbed out!

it's almost the end of extra time given. i can't bear to watch the penalty.
god save ENGLAND.

zoom.

2006-07-02T14:44:00.000+08:00

came back from an entire day out, and as usual, people always turn up an hour late. started with lan, did quite ok i think. then it was superman. sat next to edwyn and kar loon was close by, the movie was definitely enjoyable as as result of what they commented about little details and scenes of the movie, such as the plane which looked like a giant d**k without its wings, and superman looked like harry potter trying to catch the snitch while rescuing the plane. There were loads more that edwyn said, #@!&*.

Well, i think they exaggerated the part about how devastating it would be to superman if he were to be exposed to kryptonite. I had the impression kryptonite is fatal to him, to the extent where he would die once he got stabbed by it or something like that, but well, he survived.Ooh another thing! I can't believe that everyone didn't realise that clarke kent is superman and superman is clarke kent! It's just really ridiculous. even the boy knows. or maybe they are being ignorant. haha. The lake house premieres much later than i thought it would be, somewhere around the 27th of july.

I hope that england wins today, though portugal's gonna give them a hard time. It's close to half time now and i'm blogging, cause england's matches are very boring. yawn.

T25, mon's outing is still on, i wonder what movie we are going to watch. haha.

mid years. yay.

2006-07-01T17:23:00.000+08:00

aights, mids are finally over. yay. well, i hope i'll do fine, though i can imagine the horrendous scores i'm going to get. but for now, it's time for the world cup quarter finals.

and speaking of that, i've just watched the thrilling germany vs argentina match and boy, it was an emotional rollercoaster for german supporters like me. it was 10 mins before full time and germany equalised the score, 1-1. and then it was when hope returned suddenly, and to the penalties, it ended with a score of 4-2, germany into the semis! i was wondering why the argentine players got so agitated that they started a fight with the german players, i mean that since they lost, just let it be then. according to jon, he said that the argentine players argued that a german distracted their keeper and that caused the germans to score the deciding penalty.

ah well, one man's joy is indeed another man's desolation. ukraine's up next against italy, i hope the latter wins. (:

anyway, i was rather bored at home, so i decided to change the template again. i think this would stay for quite some time. there's really nth much to do, except to watch tv and play isketch the entire afternoon. at least i'm going out with the sji guys tmr, so that's not so bad.

ok i think i'll go slp. tata.

Without you
There'd be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There would be no world left for me
Baby I don't know what I would do
I would be lost if i lost you
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything real in my life

How do i live without you (Faith Hill)

2006-06-23T21:18:00.000+08:00

today was great, took 171 to town and i think the girl that sat in front of my seat was weiping. i'm not sure if it was her, cause i've not seen her since p6 graduation. eh, i miss the 6H ppl.

met edwyn first thing in the morning at far east to do a little studying before we were supposed to meet the others for the seoul garden feast. zb came along too, slightly later though, and he actually brought his photo albums which contained of the pictures he took with his camera. the photos were a collection of pictures taken from sec 2 to 4, and it really brought back fond memories, esp the one which kar loon and zongbing applied toothpaste on those asleep at tiong bahru park during our first class hike. they took a pic of me with toothpaste all over me. haha. there were those that we took after the campfires and etc, which reminds me that ed said i looked very young in the photos. prolly because i look kiddie eh. haha.

zhisheng, gerald and kar loon came a while after we started, and we talked loads. and laughed too.
our failure attempt to mug ended at delifrance, though we did study a little.

guess i'll be going out to mug tmr, trying really hard to understand keynes.

.

2006-06-23T12:15:00.000+08:00

I'm lying alone with my head on the phone
Thinkin' of you till it hurts
I know you hurt too, but what else can I do
Tormented and torn apart
I wish I could carry your smile in my heart
For times when my life seems so low
It would make me believe what tomorrow would bring
When today doesn't really know, doesn't really know

[CHORUS]
I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right believing for so long
I'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I say
That I was so wrong

I want you to come back and carry me home
Away from these long lonely nights
I'm reaching for you, are you feeling it too
Does the feeling seem oh so right
And what would you say if I called on you now
And said that I can't hold on
There's no easy way, it gets harder each day
Please love me or I'll be gone, I'll be gone

All Out Of Love
Soluna

4 days to exams and i'm still watching world cup.
ed and the others have also been talking about boredom and etc, and i agree totally. there's really nothing else to do except to watch tv and study. and true enough, we don't have enough time to rectify the situation, cause we can't possibly pass well in such a short period of time. but well, at least i should try to study so that i won't fail that badly hur.

and yes i'm really bored staying at home, and i'm looking forward to meeting the others tmr in our attempt to study. haha.

i can't believe how owen got himself injured on the pitch, just after 60 seconds of gameplay. and he got himself out of wc after rupturing something at his ankle. oh well, may god save england.

and the t7 ppl stayed over at andrew's house! heard from jo that it was quite boring and andrew actually stopped wowing. hooray, poor thing though, he said he's bored too. (:

yikes, i think i'll try to read something now, signing out.

an update.

2006-06-16T12:21:00.000+08:00

it definitely feels weird blogging again, after a looong time. changed templates a zillion times and finally, there's one that people that view with ease. As what zhisheng says: "it's finally visible." Haha.

PLTC's over, and i'm glad falcon patrol got their act together on day 4 and their percentage went up to 66% from a miserable score of 33% on day 3. couldn't help it but to shout at them on day 3 during inspection, but i'm happy that it worked. or maybe it was the retarded punishment i had to give them. oh well. at least they've learnt from their mistakes and i'll pray they get the posts that they ultimately want.

I think i watched X-Men 3 at least 3 times, and the 3rd time was the gathering of peeps from my beloved T7. haha. missed them loads and it was great meeting them. we also popped by andrew's and boy, we weren't shocked to see him glued onto his armchair raiding in WoW. oh yes, we all love andrew's mum, she's great! thanks for the treat auntie, (:

Mid years are gonna start in a week half and holy crap, i'm not ready. I'm competing with Augustine and Ken for second last place in class, haha. To make things worse, there's world cup and from 9pm onwards it's tv time. i have no idea how am i gonna catch up, but i'll think of a way somehow. Anyone wants to meet at KAP to mug? cos i'll be waking up late if i'm not going out and that's bad. i wonder if i can get james rj econs notes, eh zhi sheng help me ask him for the notes. haha.

I don't know what else to blog, so maybe i'll leave it here. before that, some outing dates.

1) SJI scouts outing

meeting at dhoby ghaut at 11am, monday, 19th june.

would be laning, catching a flick and maybe mug. lol.

ppl going so far should total up to: 9

2) T25 class outing

meeting at orchard mrt/takashimaya's fountain at 11am, tuesday, 20th june.

lunch, movie, and anything else that comes to mind.

ppl going so far? i predict more than half the class. (:

it's alive!

2006-06-01T06:58:00.000+08:00

ok, this blog finally has been updated. haha.

went out with the first 3 months classmates today, shall update once i get back from my camp k?

we aggroed our teacher.

2006-03-28T20:48:00.000+08:00

Yay, i've hit level 25 2 minutes before server shutdown. Phooey. Wanted to hit level 40 by the 11th of april which is the day my account expires which requires payment for more gameplay, but i seriously doubt i have the time to do that. I'll be overjoyed if i get to level 35.Qi Sheng, Ken and other peeps have been of great help. One thing i've realised was that peeps in Gorgonnash are much more friendlier than those in Boulderfist, cause many players online actually didn't mind helping out with a quest that they're not eligible for as yet. And another would be that at least people replied when you post a mass msg in the channels, which many of them respond to the questions asked almost instantaneously. So much of WoW, cheers! Oh yes, i bet Ken's really happy and excited now, since the Blizzard peeps are patching patch 1.10 (the priest patch). GG. Long live the priests and healers.

Lessons are really getting frustrating, esp those in which you sit in class and have no idea what's going on. Math and GP are the subjects that i can cope rather well for now, that's when i compare the problems i'm facing with Econs and Physics. Sometimes i regret begging mr tan jek suan for transferring me to a physics class. It's not that my class peeps suck or whatever, in fact, they really rock, it's just that i think physics isn't really my cup of tea. All along i've actually had the interest in Chem, but my Mum wanted me to do Physics, so that's how i ended up in this shit that i'm in now. I've told her a few times that i really don't know what's going on for Physics sometimes in class, and i would have been better off doing Chem instead. She would just encourage me, but her expression on her face tells me that she feels guiltly somehow. Enough about me ranting abt Physics, i'll be glad if Mr Loh continues to teach us.

Econs lectures and tutorials are a torture at times, cause it's either toooooooooo boring, if not it's because we really don't know what's happening. I can't imagine myself in NUS business school doing all this economic related stuff. Econs tutorial today was different in a sense, given that it's my 3rd time seeing a teacher cry. The first one was in Sec 2 in SJI, when some idiot cut his friend's ear by accident and Mrs Joan Lee was so worried she cried. The second one was Mrs Sng, i think it was during our Sec four year, when we didn't do our work and got her really pissed (it was quite a bit of work and we owed her for ages), she blew up, scolded us, and tears rolled down her cheeks. Today, Ms giam cried cause we didn't do our work, in fact she misunderstood us cause it was only a few who didn't do it, and the rest did try. Not only that, we were all preparing for the mini econs essay test, which i think she didn't know. She was really upset, but there wasn't anything we could do, so all of us remained silent. Maybe we should have done something, but we didn't.. that's the bad side of having an all boy's class (we're usually ignorant to teacher's questions, un motivated and alot of othe stuff...), it can't be helped, the girls that we in our class were booted out...

Today at school, while we were walking to LT4 for this special lecture titled "How do we send heart signals using mobile phones" by a Lecturer from Longborough University, and i was walking with Ken and we were talking about last night's episode of desperate housewives. It was rather crowded along the corridors since everyone were scrambling to attend their classes. I saw this girl in front of me that was like approaching REALLY FAST, and i tried to turn to the right, but Ken was on my right and it won't be nice to push him aside so i bumped into her slightly and sort of like pushed Ken away cause i was trying to avoid banging into her and pushing Ken AWAY at the same time. It was weird la, cause i was being so stupid. This girl whom i suspect to be in J1, shrieked and i said: 'oops, sorry.', while she avoided looking at me and walked away quickly... Lol. It was even more embarassing as Eug, Hong, Aug, Bryan, Henry and other peeps burst out laughing. Haha.

Enough of school, now for other things i've got to say. Thanks hong, for helping me buy 1GB MMC from Sim Lim at an uber price, he was really thoughful to think of me mentioning that i was looking for a new MMC during break sometime ago. Thanks to Ed for lending me his notes, which are really really much better than mine. Many thanks to gerald for coming down to CJ yesterday to get the Jobweek cards that i was supposed to submit to Mr Kwang, but i couldn't make it since i was gonna have Mass PE from 3 to 4 plus. I think i better go study, since it's maintanance today. I'll also have to pop by the wallet shop to grab a new wallet, there's a hole in my wallet. ):

FUN FACT 1: There are 10 Ipod owners, and 5 creative users in 2T25, and the total strength of the class is 15 peeps.

FUN FACT 2: My phone can now take 3660 pictures set at the highest quality.

RUMOR: Check it out when you're free (if you're reading this you should be free), but rumors has it that Apple is coming up with a new generation of Ipods, the Touchscreen Ipods, with minimum storage space of 60GB.

campfire over, hols over, WoW quests: completed, hw: incomplete.

2006-03-20T16:58:00.000+08:00

Yay yay, sch hols are over, yipees, cheers.

Back to school tmr? Oh no, all of us are gonna be in deep shit. Loads of crap not done yet.

The others are working last minute to get ready for their tests this coming week, so here's wishing them all the best and good luck.

Qi sheng helped me in wow today... did quite a bit of stuff, at least i'm lvl 19 now. My guild leaders are getting married today, yup, they really are.... Congratulations! (:

Pics for campfire and for other events coming up, that is when i clear up the pile of assignments.

oh, how exaggerated.

2006-03-14T23:31:00.000+08:00

It's the hols peeps! Haha. It's quite sad that besides students from CJ and VJ who get to slack this hols, which is in other words effectively our very last holidays we're ever gonna get again, the other guys are all mugging hard for their Common tests and Block tests. Mug hard everyone, mug hard... Even though you may have commitments, studies still comes first as your main priority. All the best everyone,and god bless.

I'm looking forward to term 2 since we're gonna get our new time-table, as well as the welcoming ceremony that we're gonna have first thing on monday. Mainly it's because i can get some slp. Heh. I'm also praying really hard that they abolish the banding thingy for physics tutorial, since mr loh is obviously, the only teacher that i think is capable of teaching physics well. I mean, look at the others, they're like OMG. Pls teachers if you see this, don't send me to Bro Paul, i'll stop talking about this.

Anyway, as for maths tutorial, even though we're also banded, i'm quite comfortable in Mr Chai's class, although Mr Ho would be better. I'm sure my classmates have the same sentiments as i do.

I was rather surprised to see iggy, with urhmm, someone else at the open house on sunday. Went to SMU with ed, zb and gerald and we practically grabbed every faculty's brochures and flyers and left like an hour after arriving. After that i went to the IT fair with my mum to get a new printer since the other one died on me. This one owns the previous one loads, haha. Wanted to make my mum by a MMC for my phone, but they were all sold out.. Hah. The kingston rams that i was looking for was also sold out, and now i've got to make a trip down to Sim Lim to get them.

it's about time that i upgraded my ram, and i'll be getting them tmr. Reason behind it? I'm frustrated with the pathetic 256mb DDR SDRAM that i'm using now, because of the lag i experience in WoW, which affects my gameplay. Instead of getting a new com, i think it'll be better to get the ram upgraded, since it's cheaper.

Talking about wow, i've finished the love eternal quest in auberdine and it was so dramatic, where i was supposed to help this love sick guy do some shit. It goes something like this.

Cerellean Whiteclaw (that's the love sick guy): Anaya...? Do my eyes deceive me? Is it really you?

Anaya: The ages have been cruel to you and I, my love, but be assured, it is, at long last we are reunited.

C: That the fates should be so cruel as to permit us only this after a thousand years apart...

C: Do you hate me my love? That i was forced to destroy your living form, that your spirit be released from unhappy bondage.

A: Let it not trouble your heart, beloved. You have freed me from slavery, and for that I love you even more.

A: Sadly, this must be cut short... The ties that bind me to this world weaken, and pull me away...

C: NO! Anaya! Don't leave me please...

A: Farewell Cerellean, until we are joined once again...

C: How my love? How will I find the strength to face the ages of the world without you by my side...

So much for love...

wow.wow. and wow.

2006-03-08T13:25:00.000+08:00

it's back to WOW! went to take a peek at the manage account section on the wow webby, and i was shocked to find that Blizzard gave me 3 days free of charge? anyway, i created another character in ggn and i want to thank eug and ken for helping out... We were farming, and when i told ken that my inventory was full, he left, and came back with 4 runecloth bags, that are 14 slots each! and he gave me 10 gold. I became a rich low lvl druid... haha.

At that moment when he opened the trade box, i was muttering to myself, omg ken, OMG. Ken's benediction and what's the name of the other staff was like omg too. As for Eug, he conjured water for me and he gave me like 80 of them? His staff as well was very cool. THANKS guys... I'm looking forward to lvling with Irvin, who's a gnome warrior.. He kept jumping around when i bumped into him at Dolanaar's inn.

i'm glad that i'm wowing, i'm glad...

btw, is the song playing?

i was bored.

2006-03-07T14:00:00.000+08:00

ms giam was scolding us today, and while she was doing that, I was counting the number of days left to the various major exams.

Anyway, while scolding us and analysing our current status of learning for econs, she said that i was improving slowly... and i was like huh? in actual fact, i think that i am unclear of most facts and stuff that we learnt this year, esp keynes. International trade isn't much of a problem, which is rather manageable.

Well, i can see that Ms Giam has high expectations for the class... She's also trying hard to help us, to no avail mostly... since we aren't giving a damn about anything. However, i am quite thankful that we actually have a teacher that bothers to help us in any way. In my opinion, it's about time that we give Ms Giam the credit that she deserves... Our results and attitude in class doesn't seem to be doing justice to her dedication. I hope that we can meet up to the standard that she wants us to reach by As...

It's the first day of orientation today and we were walking around mostly checking out the girls, or in trevor's terms, xiao mei meis. The conclusion at the end of the day? Not bad.

I'm also WoWing now! Haha, for one month only, and after that, its going to be a boring routine daily. Go to school, study, eat, revise and sleep.

Ooh it's 10pm, time for desperate housewives.. (:

help, views, tag!

2006-03-06T04:53:00.000+08:00

i was wondering which of these few templates are good, and i need the world's opinion!

could you help by tagging the template of your choice?

1) this ransom template, which i like the overall design;

2) http://www.blogskins.com/apply.php?sid=70950&action=Preview , which is rather blue-ish;

3) http://www.blogskins.com/apply.php?sid=65936&action=Preview , which is retro green. (:

just help by tagging, and it'll help me in deciding. (: thanks.

New template. ignore the ransom letter thingy.

2006-03-05T03:44:00.000+08:00

Firstly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY HONG!
Sorry that i forgot about it yesterday until Aug told me it was your birthday, i think it was someone else who told me... Anyway, thanks for helping by going down all the way to Peninsula yesterday to order the jerseys for SJ and Dan. And i hope that you had a great 18th birthday! (:

Alright, there's this new look right here that we have... This is the one that i picked from blogskins cause the rest of the templates are ridiculous and i got really fed up looking for a suitable template for 45 mins, so i decided to get this one.

Thought that this template would be better compared to the totally black template with greyish scribbles since it was like whitish-blackish kind of thing... The main picture is weird i must say, but don't worry, i'm not psycho enough to write MY own RANSOM LETTER. It's just nuts.. Haha.

Between, do pardon me for the links segment cause i didn't copy all the links over yet, and that'll be done soon.

The others are now at Kbox, and i can visualise Eugene singing away with all the exaggerated moves, grooving with the beat of Jay Chou's songs. Hope that they have fun. (:

That should be all for now cause i've got to go for venture meeting at SJI where we are going to come up with our campfire opening item... I really hope that we don't come up with weird suggestions, which in most cases, we do.

happy birthday.

2006-02-28T16:22:00.000+08:00

happy birthday! (:

ok i was blog hopping after a game of dota and i realised that i forgot that guanyan's and yingqi's birthdays are both on the 2nd of march.. Well, yingqi's going to hk today, so i guess i'll just leave a birthday msg here for the both of them anyway.

Happy Birthday!

I've haven't seen them along with the other 6H people for Agggeess... Wonder how they are right now. the last i've seen adeline was like at cine a year ago or so... I rmb calling yingqi on the escalators at dhoby ghaut mrt, aannd there was marcus whom i think i bumped into somewhere in town this year.

well well, today was the start of the common tests and i think the compre paper raped us.. So we'll just have to pray hard. Physics is still like ??? since last year and econs is such as pain in the ass. I mean, why does our dear economist KEYNES have to rack his brains so hard and come up with all this shit that i have to mug now?
I guess it's for the future anyway, cause i'm going for a degree in business anyway, so well, (: probably it's gonna help, probably.

New template

i'm thinking of searching for a new skin for this blog, cause it's rather dull.. ain't it? i think it is anyway.

anyway, gd luck peeps... oh boy, the temptation to WoW is irresistable...

i'm alive. don't worry.

2006-02-22T12:57:00.000+08:00

ok i'll make this entry short and sweet, and i'll blog when there's time.

Dad left on Sunday afternoon to check in at the hotel cause he was supposed to help out with the aerospace thingy that's going on now, can't remember who he's taking care of, if i recall correctly it's some french dude... And the best part is he's buying the Treo smartphone that they gave him and that means his O2 mini, still relatively brand new, is up for grabs. haha. That's if he'll give it to me. Too greedy eh? heh.

Been really into LOST for the past 2 weeks, and i've just finished season one. I'm really wondering what's down in that bloody hatch... and those numbers... what do they really mean.. many thanks to Aug for sending me the entire season. (:

Really tired now cos it was X country today and well, i ran, hence i'm tired. The presentation of awards took damn long. Anyway, we were glad that both the fastest J1 boy and girl running competitive are from 1T25. At least our juniors are more capable then us? It's a good thing anyway.. So congrats to them.

The NS thingy that we have to register for online is such a bother. There's like so much crap that we have to include and it takes up a lot of time. Well, the NS days are coming. how nice. Come to think of NS, i can't help it but to feel stressed? Cause my dad's like working in the SAF and he's quite high up there, so yea, it's like i need to prove myself or sth. Heck, we'll just count one step at a time. One by one, by one, by one... ...

Pictures will be uploaded soon....

And good luck guys for CTs. Though i'm pretty sure that the results are going to be fantastic for sure. FANTASTIC Fs, that is...

update..

2006-02-05T17:04:00.000+08:00

OK first of all, the pics that i've just updatd can be found at the previous entry....

Wanna thank everyone for coming last fri...

Did quite a few things as the welfare rep this month, decorated the class, got the class jersey done, tossed yu sheng tgt at the canteen and of course, the reunion which was a smash.

come to think of it, when i saw the others laughing and joking with one another, i felt very pleased and glad to see everyone enjoying themselves, so i believe that that's gonna be my motivation to organise more gatherings! Don't worry, the day i transferred over to t25 and took the role of welfare rep, it was a binding contract of not just 2 years, but till the day when we gather together, probably at 70? Event after event will come, that's for sure, and the next two week's programme are as follows:

1. Street soccer!
Date: 11 feb, 2006, sat.
Time: 10am bishan mrt.
P.S. bring extra set of clothes.

2. K-box mania!
Date: 18 feb, 2006, sat.
Time: 11am, venue not confirmed.

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

welfare welfare, thanks guys. pics!

2006-02-05T14:29:00.001+08:00

Thanks shijie, for taking a close up pic of everyone on the train... haha.

that's the end of a fantastic outing.... with many more to come, i promise.

happy cny! and a happy valentine's day! (just in case i don't get to blog..)

2006-02-01T09:32:00.000+08:00

Year of the chicks gone, and here comes the year of the bitches!

Before i begin, there's some amendments to the previous announcement:

1T25 REUNION DINNER!
Meeting details:
Time: 7pm sharp
Place: Marina bay MRT
Date: 3rd Feb, Friday
People going so far are: Daniel, Marc, Vanessa, Esther, Carolyn, Mathieu, Augustine, Jonathan, Eug, Ken, Henry and myself.

Those not confirmed: Shijie, Spencer, Wilfred, Cheetow, Nicholas, Gregory, Irvin, Wallace, Trevor, Bryan, Edwin, Iggy and Keith. Please inform me asap k? Thanks!

I went to meet edwyn on thurs, to buy clothes for cny. He brought two of his flings along, which he didn't even tell me when i called him, so it was me, ed and his two gals shopping at wisma. Mind you, we were all looking for shirts for him. Met gerald at flash and splash at wisma suprisingly, and it apparently seems that he hasn't got the shirts for cny yet. Anyway, it was goodbye to gerald after a few minutes and we also left to find the shirts with the suitable size for ed at the other flashy branches in town. We couldn't find any shirt that had his size, sadly, and he didn't buy anything in the end. Went to ps' branch in hope of finding a shirt for him, and we bumped into chuan wei and a fellow odac girl at flashy, who were looking for a gift for a friend. Helped them to test the bermudas that they chose for their friend cause they said that i am around the same height and size as their friend (-_-''), and it was like loose? well, i went to carrefour to buy the yu sheng thingy for the class before abandoning ed and cw for home.

Spent the eve at home decorating the house with all sort of stuff, party lights and etc... the house seems to be glowing in red! Well, decorating the house for cny has been my task since the primary school days! And it seems that i have to shop for stuff too already... Found out that the paragon bee cheng hiang branch had no queue, so i went to buy the bbq pork for mum. This year, the family reunion was held at a restaurant instead of the typical steamboat at grandma's, since her hand was hurting. Ate so much after such a long time....

On the first day of cny, at the party at grandma's, where all the relatives came, it was the usual year after year as the relatives would all do the same thing, one after another. It goes sth like this, in chinese: Woah tengyi, everytime i see you during chinese new year i have to lift my head higher to give you your hongbao! How tall are you now? What did you eat? And well it's true, among the crowd at grandma's, my head pops out from the 'canopy' of heads by a significant extent. My cousins have grown a lot more taller now, and they have become bitchier too, for the girls that is... Went for party after party for the next day, and i went to catch i not stupid too with my family... It was a great show, and i'm sure that some of the messages were put across quite clearly to my mum, esp during certain scenes when i was 'coughing' really loudly. Well, i'm looking forward to a better year...
On the third, which is today, i'm blogging away! Haha. Mum just called to tell me that one of my aunt has given birth today, and it's a girl. I've got to go to the hospital now, so tata!

There's lots more of parties coming up and i'm going to grow sideways! \
Happy valentines day!

updated. life as a busy little bee.

2006-01-25T14:54:00.000+08:00

I apologise for the long absence folks, but no worries, i'm still alive!

As we all know that CNY is nearing, i'm busy doing 3 things mainly.
1) Mass spring cleaning, which my mum makes sure that there is not a speck of dust left in any corner of the house...
2) Busy working on school work and NYAA, since it's already J2. It's also because i suck at Integration and Physics mainly.
3) And of course, i am still WoWing for the time being as my account expires tmr! The thing here is that there's maintainance tonight, so GG.

Went to chinatown yesterday, and it was not as crowded as i expected it to be... As always, hordes of people could be seen testing the new year goodies, esp the melon seeds and peanuts stalls. It seems that they are taking advantage of the strategy the stall owners adopted by eating as much they can. Bought a lot of stuff, and i bought some deco for the class.... I didn't expect to be back home past midnight, since i had loads of work to do and i was already very tired, since we ran 15 rounds on the track for PE...

Finally, the class jersey is settled as the order was placed today at Peninsula plaza. I think it's going to be great, given that the shirt looks great and to good news is, we get to collect it this FRI. Woah... After placing the order for our jerseys, i went for lunch with Trev, Bryan, Iggy and Edwin. We decided to go for the Sakae Sushi buffet, but changed our mind to drop by BK. We had a hearty chat, as we talked about all sorts of weird stuff.

Got my new phone! Finally after 2 years, i don't have to bear with the lousy reception from starhub anymore! 3 cheers for Singtel! I think i bought too much stuff over the weeks, and the ppl i'll be meeting soon will get to see why. Haha.

I think that the next post would most likely be coming up soon, since it's CNY and i'll have some time to blog for sure.... Now time for some announcements:

1) 1T25 REUNION DINNER!
3rd Feb 2006, Friday.
630pm at City Hall Interchange.

2) GATHERING OF THE LORDS. (SJI VENTURE SCOUTS)
27th Jan 2006, Friday.
2-3pm at Ngee Ann City.

There's so much to do, with so little time...

for fun, laughter and joy.

2006-01-12T12:43:00.000+08:00

Many thanks to Augustine for sending me Ep 62 of bleach. It rocked!

Stoned in math tutorial today cause Mr Chai expected us to be able to complete our integration assignment. Wth. I think i really have to revise partial fractions and integration stuff. Quite lost right now.

Oh yes, there was the commencement ceremony today, and there was the presentation of best progress awards. Congrats to Debo, and Keith as well for getting the awards. Then there was the eagles awards presentation and Amanda Teo that was seated up in the gallery was called down to receive the award. And Mr Tan Juek Suan (shockingly joked): "Amanda is a long distance runner, and she'll take quite a while for her to come to the stage." I bet that there was a moment where everyone stoned. Maybe eyeballs rolled so fast that they popped out of people's eye sockets. The ceremony was just simply singing, singing and more singing, and reflections and prayers.

Got our timetable today, and it's a bloody new one. At least some of the days are ok, not as gross as they were last year. Lecture was fun indeed, esp math, when Mr Ho, surprisingly who still remembers my name, asked me: "What's the value of C darren?" I really stoned cause i was just copying the stuff on the slides and didn't give a damn abt the stuff he was writing on the board. Ijust replied: "half..." And as always, Mr Ho would joke: "1/2?! Who told you? Your grandfather ah? You have four eyes and i have two, and you can't see?!" Lolz, i actually wanted to tell him yea lor, 4's not enough, 8 would be better. But it's best not to provoke him, so i just quickly told him zero. Bryan was funny too. Mr Ho was calling for him: Bryan... Bryan... ... Bryan... ... ... from T25..." Only when he said that bryan then looked up at him. Haha.

Went for fitness with Eug, See Lin and Chuan Wei, and wee actually stayed till 5pm today. Just lifted weights, chatted and looked at the hockey, soccer, shooting club and canoeing peeps do some exercises and prepare for their tryouts. There was a huge group of students waitingto try out for volleyball too. Haha, eug lost he key for a moment and we were all panicking. And he searched everything except his pockets.... We decided to con Hong, Aug and Ken, which failed cause Aug and Ken searched the classroom for the key when Eug called him, and they came to the grandstand to find us. However, Eug and I went back upstairs to lock the classroom before proceeding to the grandstand. While we went down, the two of them went up and realised that the key was missing yet the door was already locked. We confessed after Ken asked us that and tired it out on hong. We almost got him though. Haha. The original plot was to tell them that Bro Paul wanted to see the whole class com, which was practically the entire class since we are only a class of 15 peeps. Thinking that we would make them panick, our plan failed terribly.

Well, there's really nothing much to blog about now since school's started and life would just be pure mugging. We've got to come up with a freaking blog for Econs. I mean, Wth right? It's plain dumb, but we've got to do it..

Got to go do some shopping for CNY, haven't bought any new clothes yet. If you're free ed, just tell me before hand and we'll go grab some stuff home.

Aah i'm sleepy.

you love school days? i think i do.

2006-01-06T13:41:00.000+08:00

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know That makes me believe
I'm not alone
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I catch my breath
It's you I breathe
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone

You're in everyone I see
So tell me
Do you see me?

Everywhere, Michelle Branch
----------------------------------------------
Back to school again, and there's so many changes!
Firstly, my class has shrunk to a pathetic size, though not as bad as those next door.
Secondly, Ms Peh has short hair now! And she's no longer teaching us...
We're having assembly every morning now...
It's all one hour blocks now....
New Classroom by the pond.
New Math and physics tutor thanks to the banding system...
New canteen! Even though it's so large now, there still ain't enough seats for our butts.
Co-op is now Nexus club!
Fitness Club is now having activites in the new gym!
And a load of other things....
Most importantly, it's a brand new start with a totally new attitude!

Some things haven't changed one bit... We still end late daily. zzzzz.
Well, i've got to say that my Math tutor is rather good, cause he really makes sure that you understand stuff.
Sean Lee, Eugene Chum, Jeremy Yeo, Rueban, Kai chung and some others are in CJ! I was rather shocked to see Sean Lee, as i thought that he would rather go elsewhere for 1st 3 months... As usual, we have two major clusters, the Josephians and IJ girls... As the OGs pass by us sometimes, i recall the days i had with my beloved T07... haha. i'm sure we all had fun. Oh well...

Oh yes, i threw in my WoW gamecard for the time capsule thingy that we did in class, such taht i'll be reminded to play WoW after A levels, as i'm going to retire from WoW for a while.

Really busy in school now, and i'll blog whenever i can. Haha. Tata.

new song. new ipod.

2005-12-29T11:55:00.000+08:00

Decided to change the song, since the old one was screwed up. Got a new Ipod, a black video, since the old one just self destructed itself. My mum made a lot of noise when i told her mine was spoilt, so yea... at least she still got it for me.

Anyway, anyone knows how to put the video files into iTunes such that i can dl it into my Ipod? Been trying to figure out how to do so.

Freak, i'm down with a cold again.

Adrienne

The Calling

I've been thinking about you, my love

And all the crazy things that you put me through

Now I'm coming around,

Throwing it back to you

Were you thinking of me when you kissed him

Could you taste me when you licked his skin

All the while I showered you with trust and promises

What I'm needing now is some sweet revenge

To get back all that I lost then

I gave you all I had to give, but I could never reach you

Adrienne,

I thought I knew you

Once again, you used me, used me

Adrienne,

I should have left you

Long before you used me,

Used me up

Spent my money, drove my car

I treated you like a shining star

But in my sky all burnt out you are

And I'll have the last laugh, when I see you walking with some other guy

Cause I know you're gone end up all alone

So take these words, some good advice

All you've done gonna come back twice

You never cared how much it hurt, I really need to tell you

Adrienne,

I thought I knew you

Once again, you used me, used me

Adrienne, I should have left you

Long before you used me, used me up

What I'm needing now's some sweet revenge

To get back all that I lost then

I gave you all that I had to give,

but I could never reach you

Adrienne,

I thought I knew you

Once again, you used me, used me

Adrienne,

I should have left you

Long before you used me, used me up
