White - No Compromise

Merry Christmas/Happy Boxing Day '09

2009-12-26T20:40:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas all! I haven't touched my blog for a long time! Now I'm here to touch it! *touches my blog*

I only have 2 weeks of holiday + a week of E-Learning, not much of a rest really, projects and topics to study are pilling up... Oh no... And one week of holiday is going past. My Christmas this year is rather ok, spent it shopping & eating in Plaza Singapura from afternoon till night. My best gift? Always will be Jesus, happy birthday! Awwww... :D

I've always been lazy or absent-minded, therefore my poor blog is long forsaken, but I might come back for it more often next time? I shall see...

That's all folks and I shall blog soon, maybe?

Fun @ Sentosa Siloso Beach

2009-10-31T23:34:00.000-07:00

So yeah, it's been months since I've ever blogged. Simply pure lazy. Kept saying I will blog soon, so I procrastinated and procrastinated... Till now. Today I went to Sentosa with NYP Athletics Team. Not going to elaborate but well, was fun... Mostly we played beach volleyball, and a little of Frisbee. Everything is costly at Sentosa, which is the bad point. Have to remember to bring more drinks there next time and a pair of shades, you won't want to expose your naked eyes to the bright sunlight. I got sunburn, I think it is not that serious. However, my body had the burning feeling just now. Pity I had to leave before 4PM, had to go for a meeting. I still feel that I'm not well settled down for school, I believe I should at least quickly do my tutorials and schoolwork quickly before anything else. Kept telling myself give myself more time, but how long more?

It's Been Awhile

2009-08-06T23:59:00.000-07:00

Long time no blog. Sorry blog, neglected you. Here I am to revive you. (: Felt really tired lately, near exam period. Had projects and all. Haven't been studying. Lots to catch up. Have been in near dozing or dozing states, how long can I last? I wonder. Just few weeks to hang on longer. I will survive.

First Time Skip Lessons

2009-07-21T23:51:00.000-07:00

Woke up today and saw the time, 8.20 AM! What the heck, lessons already started and I just woke up. So I decided to skip that lesson already, anyway if I rushed, I'd never make it for even 20 mins of the lesson. So no point. Reached school during half of the break time then attended the Macroecons lecture and tutorial. After lessons, gym-ed as usual then went home. I'm going to abandon blog soon? The composing page is screwed.

POM ICA 2 Report

2009-07-20T23:32:00.000-07:00

Today woke up, feeling super tired. Had Red Bull after breakfast. Luckily I could still survive in school. Then today must rush through POM ICA 2 report. Sleeping late again for today. Must quickly get over m projects with. And now, I think my blogger's posting section is screwed up. So, I don't feel like posting already.

Stressed To The Max

2009-07-19T23:46:00.000-07:00

Super late, need to do my project. Nothing much done, really tired. Need my sleep but as well as need to do project. Super no idea how to really type it out. Now I really understand how some people feel when they're super tired but with work really needed to be done. And this Marketing project is not all... I have other projects to do, but maybe not by tomorrow. And I need to study. But I understand this report has to be done up by about tomorrow since Thursday is the presentation. So pressed up for time until exam ends.

What Am I Doing?

2009-07-18T23:28:00.000-07:00

Saturday... So much time... Yet, wasting my time away. OH NO! So many stuffs to do, and I could afford to do this... Dang. Tomorrow cannot slack at all, full day work after church. Damn pissed. Some more wasted my time on this toot facebook game. Kung-Fu Pets... Officially quit it. Now only Friends For Sale! (: Tomorrow rush finish marketing report. Then do some Marcoecons work? Shall see... But Marketing project top priority.

Don't Feel Like Posting

2009-07-17T23:50:00.000-07:00

Today... Tired tired tired. Morning only 2 hours lecture, barely could stay awake. Had lunch at Koufu with friends. Then went for project meeting which lasted a few minutes only! Haha. Cause nothing much to do, we only had to do our divided duties. Signed up for the Inter school games today, wish to take part in 5 km and 3 km steeplechase. Still managed 2 hours gym then some field jog and swimming. Went home late evening. But never sleep. Tired!

Just Keep Moving

2009-07-16T23:12:00.000-07:00

Woke up early again. Stats lecture in the morning. Binomial... Poisson... Next was Effective Writing lesson. ICA 3 Project discussion. Then had lunch at fast food canteen. Ate Grinning Gecko's Roasted Chix w/ Pepper Sauce + Rice. Shiok, love it. Then we went to the tutorial room, used laptop then went to discuss about Macroecons project. Then Ms Paua's Marketing tutorial... Went through tutorial 11... then she made us do mindmap. Went through some stuff then choose project presentation order then lessons over. Went to gym with Jonathan and Hafiz. Today did not do much, then went home. Slack. Listen Songs.

Heal The World

2009-07-15T22:57:00.000-07:00

Back to school today. Was MS Excel today in computer lab. Really got a lot of things to learn and remember. Then was told that I had to see Dr. Chan along with a group of people. Then after lesson we waited and waited, till he finally arrived. So it was about Marketing which Ms Paua claimed that I tapped card and left. But hey, at least find out first... I was sick ok! And you expect me to attend your lecture and faint there? Plus spreading fever and all to everyone? Even Macroecons lecture (the most non productive lecture) I also won't anyhow tap card and leave, why would I do that to Marketing lecture? So accurate must be at that time? Go so many times for me to do that, where so many people never got caught. Now I innocent you also want to find fault with me? Sigh. Not say I don't like you. But find fault with me you super power. Those tutorials I do, you not interested to check. Those I did, you purposely check. So spot on. Then realised I left my shoebag in the lab, had to retrieve it. Logged in to abscence record, still 100%... Update lah. Then I ate lunch at Kou Fu. Gym-ed for 2 hours then went to track to run on field, around perimeter. Went home after abs exercise.

On MC

2009-07-14T23:58:00.000-07:00

Went to consult the doctor today. Relax, not H1N1. Some kind of virus attack in my stomach. The actual name very long and profound, forgot also. So doctor gave me medicine + MC for today. And I just rested at home for the day. At least no need to attend the so called waste time Macroecons lecture. (:

So Sick

2009-07-13T22:41:00.000-07:00

Had a stomach ache in the morning, but still went to school. Then in POA lesson, struggling with the pain. Cannot shit also... I know I looked pathetic. The whole lesson cannot focus, the pain was simply almost unbearable. Then after POA lesson, I walk also got problem, whole body especially legs felt super weak. But still, I followed my friends to Ang Moh Kio as they were celebrating Cassandra's birthday today. Felt guilty on slowing them down and them having to put up with my painful self. Thanks Gavin for the medicated oil, and felt sorry for those around me who need to put up with the smell. They went Pizza Hut, I just sat with them, did not eat anything. Just had a cup of warm water. Went home after they were done, no strength to carry on with school for the day. Thank you all my friends for your concerns, will get well soon! So walked to the MRT together with Cassandra, she also needed to home to rest. Rested my whole afternoon till night on my bed, had no strength to walk about. Took medicine and all, developed fever and headache. Even vomitted once. Did shit as well, but stomach still uncomfortable. May take MC for tomorrow.

Taste Every Moment

2009-07-12T23:47:00.000-07:00

As usual, woke up in the morning for church again. (: Today had youth cell after 2 months. Then we just discussed and discussed about our past 2 months. After cell, Ba Chor Mee as usual. Then went up for youth service. Service was short and sweet. Then got our cell leaders' meeting. Then went home, nap. And once again, another week of school coming up. So fast. Wearing out soon, but will hang in there!

Nobody Nobody But You

2009-07-11T23:11:00.000-07:00

Not taken by me of course.

Another boring old Saturday. But it is great to be home. But just now went to BP Plaza for dinner. Ate Pontian Wonton Mee. Taste... ok ok lah. But the stall very small, so maybe little manpower and low efficiency. Then mum went to NTUC Fairprice to buy stuff, so just tagged along. After that was home sweet home already. Nothing in mind to post, so bye.

You Are Not Alone

2009-07-10T23:01:00.000-07:00

As usual, today just had 2 hours of POA lecture, 10AM - 12PM. The projector not working... Very difficult for Mr Chee to teach. Then after POA, I ate lunch along with Jonathan, Cheryl, Yu Qi and Angie. Then after that they went off, I went to the gym. Gym-ed for 2 hours then I swam. After swimming, went to the track to relax and hang around, then went home. Reached home and took a 2 - 3 hours nap. Now super energetic.

Get Serious

2009-07-09T23:13:00.000-07:00

Morning 9 AM had Stats Theory lecture. Probability... But more profound than Secondary school's probability. It had even binomial in it. After that was Effective Writing Skills tutorial. ICA 2 test. I may not do well... Sad. Lunch at Kou Fu again after that. Ate Chicken Chop + Spaghetti. Break time was playing with laptop, nothing much to do. Marketing tutorial next. Went through the tutorials. Then got back ICA 1 results. Hah. First A... Pathetic me. So I should pull up my socks alright! (:

A Long Nap Is Always Great

2009-07-08T23:50:00.000-07:00

Today had lesson at 10.10 AM, so woke up at 8.20 AM. Got back our Microsoft Access results. Our class failure rate super high, and it is not the highest among the other classes... But one of the worst. Our highest only B+. Including the B+, we had 3 Bs only. Majority Fs. I had C+, could have got B maybe. First ICA got D+, 56/100... Then second got B+, 45/60... Could have got better, careless and all. After that, Ms Tan started on Chapter 3 of Microsoft Excel. Lesson ended at 11+ AM, then went to eat at Kou Fu together with Jonathan, Qi Xiang, Gavin and Wilson. The black pepper chicken rice is quite nice. Went home after lunch. First time after so long that I came home so early from school. Mostly reach home from school when the sun already long set. Then I took a long nap, woke up in the evening. Now super energetic and shiok. Ok, must read up for tomorrow's Effective Writing ICA 2. Bye.

CMI

2009-07-07T23:41:00.000-07:00

Woke up early in the morning for school today, as early as 6.20 AM. Had effective writing skills tutorial at 8 AM. Went through some letter examples, our ICA 1 paper and did a sales email message on pen and paper. After that was break. Ate at Kou Fu again. Ate chicken cutlet noodles this time. Then went to the library to do marketing project with group members. Macroecons lecture next, really CMI. None of the lecture is really helpful at all. It is as good as having no lectures. Felt like sleeping throughout. Then was Macroecons tutorial. Went through ICA 1 paper, got 30/40 only... Wasted. They say can choose 2 questions out of 3 questions in Section B, then I go attempt all 3... Wasted my time, cause some questions not complete, could have used the time to complete the whole section B. Then when I did the test I was like complaining no time... No wonder. So blur! *slaps myself* After lessons, I went to the gym together with Hafiz. Then went to track, did a short light jog and walk on the field perimeter. Helped Phillip time his run. Then went to swim. Went home after that...

Must Buck Up

2009-07-06T22:23:00.000-07:00

Back to school today... First lesson was POA. Trying to catch up, not going to be easy. Did badly for the test. Got a bloody just pass. Ate at Kou Fu during break, western food. Then did the Stats Theory peer evaluation for the project. Next lesson was Stats Theory project. We had project presentation. Was bad, tutor commented too general, no graphs and all. But thank Jonathan for his great efforts. Marketing lecture next. Started with watching interesting advertisements. Then Ms Paua rushed, lesson ended 55 minutes early. Then went to track. Very few people, track was wet after the rain. Did not manage to run, cause my shin is still not letting me. So mostly slacked around and talked, went home in the night. I feel the need to buck up so that I can clear my first year beautifully. The end. (:

Let Me Go Home

2009-07-05T23:12:00.000-07:00

Woke up at 7.20 AM today... Quickly rushed out of bed and rushed. Oh no, supposed to wake up at 6.20 AM. Then took the train all the way to City Hall, supposed to reach by 8.00 AM, but reached 30 mins late. Went to New Creation Church at Suntec today just to visit. At least was on time for the service. Was with Jared, Leonard, Dionne, Zachary and Alvin. Jared and Alvin had to go to the back for seats, never reserve enough seats. Well, overall was great. Impressed by how strong God was honoured in their house, the spirits of the church was well boosted for the Lord. The message from Pastor Prince about healing spoke well to me. After service, we went to eat at the food centre, ate the Mini Wok Noodle. Then we walked around. Jared, Dionne and I went back to church, they wanted to go out with some others, in the end I did not join. Was too tired. Went back home. Then went out to Grandmother's house just now. Now so quickly have to get ready for school tomorrow. Oh no. Well... School is not that bad! Just have to get out of the holiday mood!

So Rush

2009-07-04T23:44:00.000-07:00

School is reopening on Monday. And I have Stats Theory project presentation on that day... Few other projects to be completed soon. About less than 2 months more to exams if I'm not wrong? And yet I'm in such a holiday mood... WAKE UP YOUR IDEA GABRIEL! *slaps myself* Today some more spend so much time slacking... Better brace up for all the tasks before next holidays come. Had a sudden frustration with myself and life today. Well not the first time I guess. Well God created me and this life, so I have to accept this and just look on the beautiful side of it. Will work on this.

Welcome Back PES'09

2009-07-03T23:49:00.000-07:00

This morning woke up, got my PES'09 back from Chin Seng. It has rot with him since Februrary, because he say his computer cannot read some files and he never get to play... Went CCK gym in the morning as well, good thing I still pay student price. I prefer my school's gym still. Then had been playing my PES'09, missed it so much. Went over to visit the 2 sisters from Sisterhood Of Mary today, the fellowship was great. Initially I took a long time to travel there, had quite a hard time finding the place. -.- Comes to the realization (from this fellowship) of many people in this world don't display true love... But God is great, he did not ask for unreasonable returns but continue loving us just as great as ever, never did he put us to shame. Amen.

Drowned With Assignments

2009-07-02T23:50:00.000-07:00

Today had to do quite a number of assignments. Suddenly effective writing popped out another assignment. Then got back my results for Effective Writing ICA 1, 39.5/50 - B+... B+ only?! Sigh. And also did the marketing tutorial... Submitted a little late, hope Ms Paua accepted it. I should suppose tomorrow is a free day for me since I did not receive any emails... And next week school reopens, more tasks to do... Argh!

Beginning Of July

2009-07-01T23:27:00.000-07:00

Now we've gone past half a year. It's really fast, didn't realise it was 1st July this morning. Morning to noon, I was doing the Excel assignments. Got quite a lot to do. Tomorrow got more to do, better start on some later. Then afternoon I took a huge break. Just now at night I watched 'The Silver Chamber Of Sorrows' last episode. Quite a nice show in the end, not the standard happy ending, had some tragedies. And... that's all for today. (:

Want To Gym But Can't

2009-06-30T23:55:00.000-07:00

Did not have enough sleep. Last night stayed up just to watch England U21 vs Germany U21, ended up very disappointed. The germans won 4-0, but I watch until 3-0 then went to sleep already, wasted my time. Did Effective Writting assignments first, had to hand up by 2 PM. Then did Macroecons, then handed up but in the end Mr Chang also sent us the answers... So whole day was cooped up at home doing assignments. By the time finished, also quite late already, then can't go gym already. Watched 'The Silver Chamber Of Sorrows 銀樓金粉'. Tomorrow should be last episode, must watch, super exciting. Then I downloaded 'The King Of Snooker 桌球天王' episodes 6 & 7, because the website so many episodes having broken links. Watched 'The Book And The Sword 书剑恩仇录' as well, together with my uncle. I guess I shall sleep earlier today, then can start doing my assignment early tomorrow. Bye.

Beginning Of E-Learning Week

2009-06-29T23:35:00.000-07:00

Stay safe.

School closed for this whole week. But staying at home is no better. With tons of assignments piled up with deadlines, so must try to rush. Cooping up at home to do work very boring, need fresh air but still can't start running yet. Felt like going gym but need to pay, adult price some more, headache of going to a Polytechnic... Adult pricing everywhere. And I think it is unjustifiable, many of us full time Polytechnic students no jobs already and still must pay adult prices while JC students still enjoy student prices, it is not fair. Oh well better get on with my work or else I'll be in trouble if I don't submit by the deadlines.

Busy Weeks Ahead

2009-06-28T23:00:00.000-07:00

Today woke up in the Morning and went to church. Today super sleepy, especially during the sermon. We have church members from the USA back to visit, and a nun from Sisterhood Of Mary. After service, I went down to eat Ba Chor Mee again. Saw Zeph and Yong Jian, joined them. Then after that I went back home. Super tired, so had a nice afternoon nap. Suddenly today got emails, assignments for next week since got no school. Extended holiday nicely put, actually it is just E-Learning, still got assignments and projects to do. Basket. Time to do work tomorrow.

Beginning Of AYG

2009-06-27T23:49:00.000-07:00

Well actually Asian Youth Games is nothing big. Singapore's young soccer team lost to Iran as expected. Look at the quality of play, quite a joke. Well today was again staying at home. Not intending to move around much with my injured shin which is taking long to heal, not going to aggravate the injury... But my leg was itching to run or play soccer today. Was applying ice pack onto the injury, then freezing the ice pack and then applying again... On and on... Hopefully tomorrow can discipline myself to do the E-Learning thing.

Whatever It Takes

2009-06-26T23:56:00.000-07:00

Today was the same. Just went to school in the evening to do gym. Trained biceps, a little of triceps and hamstring. Then ended with training abdominals. Then went up to track to see the Athletics members and with some greetings. Left home after slacking there awhile. Got to go already, Mum nagging. Bye.

What About Now

2009-06-25T23:14:00.000-07:00

Once again I woke up super late, 11 AM. Quite shock to see the Confederations Cup score, USA 2 - 0 Spain, USA soccer team fought hard for that anyway. Stayed at home till the evening, went to school to swim. Swam for like an hour or more, was 7 plus after I was done. So I headed home. Have been icing my shin, as well as rubbing medication on it, still not healed yet... Wonder when...

Super Duper Slack

2009-06-24T23:55:00.000-07:00

Today I haven't went out of the house... Saw the rain and had no mood. Intended to swim, but not with the rain. So I stayed at home. So slack, if only my shin recovers, super shiok, sure very active. Later maybe discipline to do some small exercises? Maybe... Shall not post anymore, nothing else to post. (:

It's Recovering

2009-06-23T23:25:00.000-07:00

Woke up at 11 in the morning. Then met Jeremy at Yio Chu Kang station and we headed to school. We ate lunch at Grinning Gecko, ate the black pepper beef rice. Then we wnt up library, looked for place to settle down. After we did, Jeremy studied and I used laptop. All the way to 4, we stayed in the library, then we gymed till 6+ PM. Then went to track to relax, Jeremy jogged. My leg is recovering, can feel that, thank God. Hope I can start training very soon.

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

Yesterday forgot to post. Yesterday met up with my Stats Theory group to do project at 11. Halfway we ate in fast food canteen to do, I ate from the Grinning Gecko stall. Then wrapped up our project at 2. Then I went to find my Macroecons group at some research centre and they were finding info. So basically we just find info. 3 PM they left, then I stayed for awhile. Then I went to swim. After swimming, I relaxed around awhile then left.

Happy Fathers' Day

2009-06-21T23:52:00.000-07:00

Not much of Father's Day, didn't really celebrate it. Today visited Chien Yi's church, St. Andrews Cathedral. Quite much difference with my church, as in the system and all, cause it is an anglican church while mine is penecostal. And it was chinese service, so I got so owned there. Well at least it was quite an eye-opener. So Chin Seng and Dylan also went. Then after church we ate nearby, some chicken rice stall, quite similiar to Nam Kee Chicken Rice, but the standard of the food so-so only to me, only ate the rice + pork chop + cabbage + egg, so can't really judge yet. Then we're supposed to go Dhoby Ghaut to help Chien Yi out for fund raising. At City Hall MRT station, we're initially standing at the right platform, then Chien Yi suddenly go down, so we were like... bye Chien Yi, you may go Marina Bay. Then we boarded the train without him and waited at Dhoby Ghaut. Then we decided to prank on him, say we went back home, took the green line to Jurong East. Then his reaction all funny, then Chin Seng spotted him in the train which arrived at Dhoby Ghaut, then we quickly hid ourselves. Then when he went up, we also went up. Then we sneaked off to the Sweet Talk store buy Bubble Tea, slowly walk, talk, drink and laugh along the way. Sorry ah Chien Yi, we were just being cheeky. Haha. Then finally when we showed ourselves, he like quite angry for awhile, then ok already. Got VJC students approached us to help them do survey and ask us help donate, so Chin Seng did the survey. he and I donated then got wristbands. Then I followed Chien Yi to print out some copies of stuff, was a long walk. Then went back, just hanged around at the 'stall', then I had to leave at 4 PM.

Dreading Lazing At Home

2009-06-20T23:24:00.000-07:00

Today basically was resting and lazing at home. Shin still no progress, sometimes walk also pain... Went to Eunos in the evening for dinner with family + cousins. Was late, left the house late... The food was quite nice. It's been a long time since we meet up, so it was good to meet up for dinner. (:

Long Break Off Training

2009-06-19T23:37:00.000-07:00

Shin still pain, can't train much till it recovers. Today did project in the morning, reached Woodlands library earlier than 11 AM. The rest were late, so I had to wait and wait. So we discussed and discussed till 1+ PM, then went to Horizon food court to eat together with Wilson and Kevin. I ate the beef noodles, quite ok. Then went back to school, relaxed in Gloria Jean's Coffee then went track. Trained a little by running around the field on the grass, slightly longer than 30 minutes. Then mostly trained on my abdominals. Done with training around 8 PM. Trained together with Shawn and Jeremy as well, then joined them as they eat as well. But I ate at home. Reached home 9+ PM.

Whack Only

2009-06-18T23:05:00.000-07:00

Today went to school in the afternoon to train. The pain in my shin is still on going, but I still trained, but went light on myself. Ran on grass around 30 min I guess... according to Phillip. Then we had to fill up the steeplechase pool with water, took us so much effort had to keep carrying buckets of water around with a hose running with water, still took hours to fill it up, no exaggeration on that. I takes super long to fill it up. Since we borrowed the buckets, we had to return and while we depend on the hose to fill it up, we went to the pool to swim first. Then after that, we did steeplechase. Had some dissents over the people washing their stuff in the pool, but happened not to be too bad, so we just trained. Was struggling with my leg so I went slow and did only little training. After stretching, core workout and packing up, we left the stadium. Today reached home super late, slightly past 10 PM. Tomorrow may still have to do light training...

Switched Off

2009-06-17T23:52:00.000-07:00

Today woke up early, went to cage to play soccer despite the pain on my shin, had no choice. Altogether just nice 10 people. So I place more weight on my right foot, played a little less vigorous, movement slowed down as well. Scored a handful of goals, not my best but not my worse of plays, quite ok. But it all continued going down... Ate at KFC, didn't wish to actually, unhealthy and not cheap. Then went to church as I thought meeting was there, waited for more than half an hour then called up and they said Ang Mo Kio hub. Sigh. And before that, my phone had no value so can't pick up calls or reply SMSes. Then I went home to rest. Picked up a call, mind switched off, merely answered like a bot, and next thing I knew that I got a scolding, the person was in a blabbering kind of rude tone at first. Then Mum called to say one of my uncle complained. I went... HUH?! What to do? Totally lost mood, had to apologise though, I had some fault. Ah no mood to even post further... Sigh.

I Need A Longer Holiday

2009-06-16T23:04:00.000-07:00

Finally get to wake up late today. Phillip called me up early in the afternoon to ask me train together with him, so I went to school. My shin was hurting. First we did some pool training, then we ran. Was struggling with my leg but managed to complete the training. Praying that it'll heal soon, I want to stay active. Well I wish to strengthen up my body and quickly improve my stamina and endurance. Ok that's all, off to sleep.

Realization Of The Uphill Tasks

2009-06-15T23:34:00.000-07:00

Today woke up before 9 AM, watched NBA finals LA Lakers finally won! (: Went to school in the afternoon, then I started training early. Ran 10km on track. Cooled down and changed up, had Milo, then headed to library to do project. Spent hours on it, but progressed little, too little info. Must start my proper research, and get recognised for it.

All About Discipline

2009-06-14T23:55:00.000-07:00

Just now I did my long run, late at night, super quiet all around. At least I managed to discipline myself to run. Morning had church service, combined service, lasted quite long. Then mingled around before going for lunch. Had lunch with Rachel and Raina, ate Ba Chor Mee as usual. Uncle Peter joined us. Jared today went to visit another church, so no one to eat Ba Chor Mee with. Then I went home, sleep. Was tired. Ok, that's about all.

With Great Faith Comes Great Ambition And Results

2009-06-13T23:33:00.000-07:00

Today woke up around 11 AM, tired... Last night slept at 3 AM, well it wasn't night, oh well never mind. Had lunch at home before going out to church, had Sparks and camp meeting. All in all ended before 5 PM. Camp last minute cancelled, not enough response, everyone's busy. Oh well, just now I watch Night At The Museum II online. Funny show, hehe. (:

Haha, congrats Nigahiga. (:

GG For POA ICA 1 Test

2009-06-12T23:02:00.000-07:00

Morning was POA test, last night merely flip through the dang lecture notes, never study. So not surprisingly, the first question stunned me, lucky 2 marks only. The whole test was bad. And so... 11 AM finished. Then ate lunch with some friends at Kou Fu, then went gym. Focused on biceps and abdominals. After gym, I slacked in the Athletics Club Room. Training today was bad for me, my leg didn't allow me to go on after my 7th round around school. Then I rested awhile. Then ran another 2.4km. Then played around with a soccer ball together with Shawn. Now legs super aching and fatigue. ):

Overshot Travel

2009-06-11T23:51:00.000-07:00

Today woke up at 6.20 AM for school again, so tired. Was sleeping in the MRT and when I woke up... I heard, 'Next station, Braddell.'. I was still I a little blur, then I went... WHAT?! Braddell already?! Then must change train and take 3 stops down to school. And of course, I was late, met Darren on the way of walking to school. But at least tap card is at 9 AM, since it was just an extended lecture. Was rather sleepy in the Stats Lecture, because I was plain tired. Efeective Writing lesson... I was MSN-ing, doing other stuff, only listen a little. Then break time ate at McDonalds. Discussed a little on Marketing ICA 2 project. Principles Of Marketing tutorial was next, went through tutorial questions. Then 5 PM ended, went to track. Talked to Philip awhile, then we train. Halfway the run, my leg cannot take it, never stretch at all. Then I stretched and joined 'em. Total ran 6 rounds outside school + track 400m. Then did some steeplechase training, and ended with 2.4km run. Cooled down then went home. Now must study for POA test tomorrow so bye.

I Am Statisfied With My Position But Will Work Harder

2009-06-10T23:57:00.000-07:00

Finally school started late today, 10.10 AM. Had ICA 2 for MS Access, did fairly well. Then we continued on the lesson with MS Excel. After lesson, I met Jeremy at South Canteen, I ate Japanese food. Then we slacked in South Canteen. 2.15 PM, we went to the track to register for the Campus Road Run. So after that I was around there relaxing, then warming up and stuff. About 3+ to 4 PM the race started. The weather super hot, difficult to run. So at first I controlled myself and tried not to chase the people in front. At the last part then I went all out, but was quite late, got 4th still. (: But still, not enough, must train harder and do better, my timing was 15+ mins, near 16 mins. After the run I was trying to hydrate myself with the H-TWO-O they provided, then cool down and all. I wished they gave a runner's singlet instead of T-shirt jersey. Left after prize presentation, heard the coach angry because he don't know about the road run today. O: Then I went to eat together with Shawn and Jeremy, small bowl Ba Chor Mee, so-so only. Then I went to Marcus' house for Sparks meeting, ended super late, 10+ PM. Well, I'm tired now so bye.

First Time Touching The Pool After So Long

2009-06-09T23:51:00.000-07:00

Second day of the week having 8 AM lessons. Super tired, but must try keep to 100% record. Effective Writing lesson I tried sleeping for awhile, then we had to do 2 pair exercises. Then was our 2 hours break. Discussed Macroecons project in m group first, in the library. Then went to Kou Fu together with Hafiz, ate Chicken Rice, quite nice. Then we went to discussion room to meet up with the others. Settled down and played the game I'm quite addicted to on Facebook: Word Challenge. Then was Macroecons lecture, as usual I was sleepy at times, mind unconscious sometimes in the lesson. And her 'jokes' can't wake me up. Then was Macroecons tutorial, just went through the tutorial questions and it was over. Then went gym with some friends, only went for a short while, had to do my running training. Did the last stretch of Campus Road Run x 5 sets, then cool down run 2 rounds around grass. Then went to the pool together with Shawn. It's been so long since I ever touched the pool, felt so shiok. Whahaha. Now super tired, shall end this here. (:

Long Week Ahead

2009-06-08T23:28:00.000-07:00

Today school was from 8 AM - 6 PM. Got owned, as I did not bring admin card. So very troublesome, morning temperature taking must go to the form and write down some particulars. Morning was Effective Wirtting Skills makeup lesson, those never go can be marked present so long they pass up the work?! Then POA lesson we learnt about the DacEasy software. Had lunch at Macdonalds with friends, ate McSpicy meal upsized. Then studied for Stats Theory test + slacked around. The test was rather easy... Only few areas tested. Principles Of Marketing lecture just went through lecture notes quickly, then watched some interesting advertisements. Ended slightly earlier than 6 PM, had to go to Ms Paua to tell her I forgot to bring admin card. Then after that I went to the track, did a little traning, mostly run on grass, but not a lot.

JunE A Success

2009-06-07T23:21:00.000-07:00

Woke up early to go church, cause younger sis had to go for Mindchamps. Then ate at Banquet for breakfast. Cheese and egg prata very expensive, $4.00. Combined service today. Then went down to office to collect the Wonton Mee order. Today was the E-Training program, named 'JunE'. Overall a success, although some decisions were last minute, but God never fails if we seek him. Forgotten to bring volleyball, thank God for the backup plan we had, which was last minute. Response was good, whole thing moved on smoothly, well done. (:

Stretch It Alright

2009-06-06T23:05:00.000-07:00

Had my haircut this morning, feels great. Then afternoon headed for Joseph's house. Got myself quite lost, never go before, some more Holland Village area, not familliar. In the end Joseph directed me through phone and I managed to reach. Then I just joined in for the meeting, I was very late of course. Did filming as well. Then got young adults high tea as well. Quite a great gathering, response was good in prior to the attendance. Food got a lot and was good. Then I walked to Buona Vista station together with Jeremy then went home. Was trying to stretch my calf whole day. Now it feels better! *Rejoices in the Lord* (:

Injured Right Calf

2009-06-05T23:25:00.000-07:00

Today project meeting cancelled, made me wake up early for nothing. So went to school later for POA lecture. I was just only few minutes late, but the lecturer was later. Haha. And lecture was so-so. Then after lecture, went to Cineleisure meet Jeremy and Constance for E-training meeting. Met Jeremy at Sommerset station first. Ate at Burger King. Meeting ended rather fast, then back to school for training. Today ran 8 rounds round school, 12.8km... Got my right calf injured, felt it at the 8th round but I still pushed myself. Maybe not enough stretching, if not maybe can follow Philip all the way for 15km. After the run, I hurriedly drank 1 can 7-Up Revive, 1 can Sparkling H-TWO-O and 1 packet of H-TWO-O original. Needed to hydrate badly. And I tried stretching a lot, now still pain. Shall pray hard that it'll recover within the weekend. Then just relax with Shawn and Jeremy at Fast Food Canteen while they eat dinner, then they rushed off. Then I left with Cynthia. (:

Long Break

2009-06-04T23:39:00.000-07:00

Today Stats Theory lecture at 9 AM. Ended at almost 11 AM. Today lesson more serious, need to quickly cover topics. Dr. Badri sent someone out, cause the person used laptop. Don't think she from our lecture also. O: Then last minute no Effective Writting lesson. Teacher sick. So went library use laptop... Never do much also. Ate lunch at Kou Fu, the rice + fried chicken with thai sweet sauce + egg + cucumber + soup quite nice. So had total 4 hours free time today. Then was Principles Of Marketing tutorial, Ms Paua today never check who do the questions or not! Unfair lah, I got do then she never check, never do then check. Lesson rather fun and interactive today, not like Stats Theory tutorial... -.- Then I went gym after that. 6 PM went to track. Joined Philip run around school, 5 rounds, about 8km. Super tired after training, off to sleep. Goodnight!

Happy Birthday To Uncle Daniel

2009-06-03T23:20:00.000-07:00

I'm going to shut my eyes soon, make this quick. Simply had 3 hours of Business Software Applications tutorial today, starting at 10.10 AM. After that, ate at Kou Fu and went library to do Marketing tutorial with friends. Then we went hockey pitch to play soccer. 4 PM I stopped, then went to track to prepare for training. Trained with Philip for today, I ran 800m x 6 sets. Then after that followed by cool down run + learn some strategies. (: He lent me his spike shoes, great for track run but not on other grounds... After training, I hurried to Toa Payoh meet my family for dinner, Uncle Daniel's birthday. Ate at Crystal Jade restaurant, too saltish, disappointed, cause Hong Kong chef. The one in Orchard was good, tried it last time. Oh well, time to sleep, goodnight.

I Don't Like Tests

2009-06-02T23:35:00.000-07:00

Lesson early in the morning at 8 AM today. So had ICA 1 test for Effective Writting Skills. The killer part was the guess the meanings of the five words... At least put the words in a passage or sentences... No dictionary, how I know? Then ealry lunch break as usual, ate in Kou Fu. Then Macroeconomics lecture super cannot get the lesson again... Tutorial had ICA 1 test. Pretty bad, some part blanked out. Then I did some gym training, followed by Athletics training. Ran 4km then 800m then 4km again. That's all for today.

Must Study For Macroeconomics

2009-06-01T22:51:00.000-07:00

Tomorrow 2 tests, Effective Writting & Macroeconomics. Macroeconomics a lot to study, so must wrap it up by today. Today first lesson, POA tutorial, at 10.10 AM. I felt so early, went class, little people. Even the teacher was few minutes late, hehe. At least most of the people did not do tutorial questions, if not I sure in trouble. Had lunch at North Canteen, Malay Rice, nice. Then Stats Theory tutorial did not absorb anything again, must depend more on Dr. Badri, haha. Principles Of Marketing lecture started well, play the spot the difference game, fun. (: Then towards the end, students made noise and made Ms Paua angry... Then she just finished it off, then since stopped explaining the lecture notes and end off fast. Dang. After lecture, I went to track, today did long run outside the school + 2.4km on track + one 200m race. Cooled down for quite long then went home. Now I should be off to study, must discipline myself!

Please Study

2009-05-31T23:12:00.000-07:00

Coming week: Macroeconomics test + Effective Writting Skills test. Both on Tuesday. Must study... The percentage of the tests are rather high. So today I woke up at 7+ AM. Had to go church early. Last day of Children's ministry duty. After that, same old eating routine, together with Jared. And I went home to sleep. Now must study for Macroeconomics, a lot to memorise! Sigh.

Should Have Slept Longer

2009-05-30T23:07:00.000-07:00

Today woke up at about 6.10 AM. Super tired, didn't want to go cage but had to. Then met my senior and his friends at Kallang MRT station, we reached the cage very early. Won't elaborate much, cause overall the waiting time is much more than our playing time. Then Bioré® gave us some free samples by being in their photos for advertisement? Haha. Ate lunch at KFC with my senior and friends. Then my senior joined another of his friend's team, then the rest of us left. I went to church for 2 meetings. Felt that I should have not gone cage... Can study for ICAs. I reached home and slept till 9.40 PM. Now quite energetic, off to study maybe. Bye.

*Chelsea 2 - 1 Everton. Sad.

Accumulated Fatigue

2009-05-29T23:53:00.000-07:00

Really cannot take it, super tired after a long week. Next week still got tests, must study. Then tomorrow must wake up early, senior ask me go cage, he cannot find replacements... Back to today. Woke up past 8.30 AM, felt super tired. Then went to school, had 2 hours POA lecture. Had lunch after lecture at fast food canteen with some friends. Ate the same Macdonalds meal again. Then I stayed at library on my laptop for hours, till 5+ PM, for CCA. Today's training was a killer, 600m x 10 sets. Some more only 2 minutes intervals! Last time only do 6 sets with 5 minutes interval. But I still survived, some more did 50 sets of climbing up and down stairs. After training still can play a little bit of soccer. Then went home. Now super exhausted... Shall not post longer, too tired to.

Hyped Up And Worn Out At The Same Time

2009-05-28T22:46:00.000-07:00

Could be a nice place to live in.

Today... I happily thought I woke up on time as I thought lecture was at 9 AM. Checked Soccernet website, as I predicted, Barcelona won 2-0! Great goals by Eto'o and Messi. Eat that, Manchester United + fans for your arrogance! Then midway I left home for school, I suddenly went...Shucks! (in my mind) My lecture today supposed to start at 8 AM as Dr. Badri wanted to extend the lesson time, need to cover more topics. Then I missed one hour of lecture... Hope my tapping of card successful, cause last lecture he said although it is at 8 AM, but card tap at 9 AM. After Stats Theory lecture was Effective Writing Skills tutorial. Just went through another chapter, and do exercises. Lesson ended early. Had lunch at Macdonalds, double cheese burger meal upsized w/ coke. After lunch, had a lot of time in the tutorial room, like more than an hour. Then was Principles Of Marketing tutorial. So unfortunate! Ms Paua today checked on everyone if we had done tutorial questions... Regretted so badly that I did not do on break time. Argh! Other tutorial she never check, then this tutorial check... And our ICA 2 is up... I guess my group will suffer. Gym-ed with friends after lesson. Then went to track, ran around the field, 1 hour. So after my run, I felt hyped up, but at the same time worn out...

Ms Access ICA 1 - Quite Screwed?

2009-05-27T22:55:00.000-07:00

Oh well... Today I had Microsoft Access ICA 1 in the morning, started at 10.30 AM. The whole thing was quite a challenge... First part was pair work, then individual. I paired with Jonathan, decided by drawing of cards. So both of us did not know some stuff here and there. Then after submitting our answers, we found out that we missed out one part. And that costed us a lot of marks. Individual work... I think I made some mistakes but I don't know what mistakes I made. Hahaha. Well, it's over. ICA ended at 12.30 PM. Had lunch with friends at Kou Fu. Ate Malay Rice, quite nice. (: Then slacked in the library a while... Played soccer with friends against other groups of people in the afternoon. Sad to say, skipped on Campus Crusade for today. But soccer was quite fun, in some ways. I didn't play my all I guess, had training afterwards. Training was one big energy drainer, maybe because of playing soccer earlier on? Left school at 8 PM, after another long day.

Screw My Alarm Clock

2009-05-26T23:36:00.000-07:00

Dang! I was so late today... I woke up exactly when lesson starts. I was like... What the heck?! I decided to rush to school anyway. My efforts paid off, the teacher was kind to hear my explanation. So hopefully can keep my 100% record. So effective writting class more than half the class gone, did not do much. Then early 'lunch' again. This time at Kou Fu. Ate Western again. Then went library, kind of slept. Then was Macroecons lecture. Boring again, but at least the lecturer quite ok. Then was Macroecons tutorial. Mr Chang went through the tutorial questions, taught some stuff also. Finally, POA tutorial. Mr Chee started affirming back to our basics first. Then proceeded on to the tutorial questions. After lesson, I went to the track, got Athletics training. Today long run outside school. Ended when the sky was dark again. Then headed home as soon as possible.

Wasted Day

2009-05-25T22:09:00.000-07:00

Could have gone to meet Mr Kat and others, but my whole day is wasted just to go back to school because of a bloody 2 hours Stats Theory tutorial... And the tutorial also nothing went into my head, wasted my precious time. Left the house before 11 AM, met Kenny at LRT. Then talk in the MRT... All the way to Yio Chu Kang. Then he went off with his friend to school. I met Zhen Bang near the control station. Then we went school meet the others, do Stats Project. After doing awhile, then went North Canteen to eat. Ate Japanese food, the set meal, not too filling actually. Then went up to a tutorial room. Lesson started at 2. Ended at 4. What was learnt? Nothing. Only remembered discussing about the project thing. Cause it was constantly not approved to some extent? After lesson... Went gym with Hafiz, Darren and Jonathan. So long never been to a gym, no time... Then of course, I am weak. Went to track at 6 for Athletics training. 200m x 20 sets, 1 minute intervals. After training, didn't felt really tired actually, but late already, so went home.

Mood Dampened

2009-05-24T23:56:00.000-07:00

Nature is great, no pictures to put up here. Haha.

Today got church, GNK duty as usual. Kids nowadays... Oh well, I can't do anything much, it's their parents' duties. After evaluation meeting, went down together with Jared to eat Ba Chor Mee again, standard $4 big bowl. (: After that, I went home, this weekend I really slacked. No mood for doing work at all? Sigh. Especially tomorrow must go to school because of Stats tutorial... Supposed to be a holiday, a break! Argh. So tomorrow also going to do project, going to school earlier. At least I'm waking up later than usual Mondays... Watch the Barclays Premier League just now, Newcastle got relegated... Shucks. At least Arsenal won, could have been more, but Stoke second half everyone defend. Oh well, so tomorrow would be like long day again, will go Athletics training again, since I'd be in school already.

Couldn't Go Athletics One Day Camp

2009-05-23T23:35:00.000-07:00

Interesting place to sleep at, eh? O:

Was sick in the morning, couldn't get out of bed, so SMS-ed Jeremy in a half asleep state. Woke up fully at almost 11 AM already. Runny nose, throat infected, whole body just no energy. Later into the day, felt better. So went to church in the afternoon for camp meeting. Saw an Athletics team mate along the way, so coincidental. He must be never go the camp also. Camp meeting was alright, then I went home after that. My day today quite short, mostly at home resting...

I Need A Break

2009-05-22T23:48:00.000-07:00

I truly need a vacation.

Again didn't felt like waking up today because of the aching and fatigue. Had breakfast before I left for school, curry tuna sandwich, yummy. (: Had been sneezing since morning... Just 2 hours of POA lecture today, never bring pencil case, so must use laptop to type, and so I was online. Handed up my marketing project as well... After lecture I waited in the library for awhile, then joined Shawn for lunch at South Canteen. Had the omelette rice from the Japanese stall, not bad. Then I went up to library to use laptop for like... hours. Quite bored, then I watched a little of The King Of Snooker, starting quite nice. Headed down for training at 5+ PM. Warm up run 2 rounds, stretching. Then go on to run 400m x 15 sets, 1 minute intervals. 1 minute is like so short, walk a bit then must start running already. In addition, must climb the row of steps x 50 sets. Super tired + aching legs... Now schedule really packed, got much work + meetings + CCA... I really need a break!

Indoor Run

2009-05-21T23:57:00.000-07:00

Today woke up, super tired + felt the aches, did not feel like waking up, but must keep my 100% attendance. 9 AM was Stats Theory lecture, Dr Badri went through mean, median & mode for grouped data. Lecture was quite funny as usual. (: Then was Effective Writting lesson, practices and more... Got quite a lot of homework. Lunch break at Macdonalds, had the McChicken Meal upsized, coke as drink. Never take the glass, the counter person never tell me about the promotion! Pfft. Then was Principles of Marketing tutorial, Ms Paua just went through tutorial 5, at least quite interactive, made us come out with some of the examples. Handing in my ICA 1 tomorrow, completed. After lesson, I went up library use laptop, went down to the track at 6+ PM. The weather was bad, lightning, even the year 3 group taking NAPFA test had their test postponed. Then ran indoors together with seniors. Then the 2 seniors leg got some injury, then left me alone running. I ran barefooted, ran till 7.55 PM. Then cool down, stretch, washed up, changed up, went home. Not much time to post, super tired. Goodnight.

Trying To Get Used To It

2009-05-20T23:34:00.000-07:00

Today only 3 hours of lesson, Business Software Applications, Microsoft Access. Was basically trying to keep up, sometimes it was fast. After lesson, followed some friends to eat lunch. They bought food from The Grinning Gecko, I bought from MacDonalds. Cheeseburger upsized meal again. After lunch, I went to the library cafe to meet Shawn. Then used laptop awhile... Then we went Campus Crusade, today basically played some games at Crusade. Then left midway again for training. Warm up run 2.4 km, then stretched a little. Was instructed to run 600m x 6 sets. So did it together with the year 1s who went for training. Seniors got NAPFA testing duty. Then, coach instructed us to do 50 sets of climbing up and down a row of stairs. After that, I do my own stretching, cool down run for 3 rounds (1.2km). Then changed up and left. Feeling really sleepy already...

I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing

2009-05-19T23:21:00.000-07:00

Today's lesson was 8 AM. Super tired, even others could tell. But I was trying hard to stay awake, trying not to miss out anything in lessons. Effective writting skills tutorial, the teacher went through the block letter format... Asked us to do an exercise, pair work, so I did together with Agatha. Then she gave homework... Next was our early 'lunch' break as usual. MacDonalds again, Sausage Mcmuffin With Egg meal, upsized Milo. Macroeconomics lecture I rested my head on the table on a couple of occassions, sleepy. The questions she asked us to do, I never do. Macroeconomics tutorial I felt slightly better some how, followed up the tutorial questions and the online quiz. After lesson, I went back Kranji Secondary for soccer training again! This time a lot of people, upper and lower secondary combined. Then I only got to play awhile, reached late, training started at 3 PM. After that, I went home...

Have To Stick To NTUC Fairprice

2009-05-18T21:56:00.000-07:00

Woke up late in the morning, 7 PM. Did not hear my alarm clock at all. So I rushed to school, was late of course. Dr. Badri was teaching mean, median & mode. Stats Theory actually quite dry, thankful not to have a boring lecturer. POA tutorial next, Mr Chee went through the tutorial questions, 2 hours gone very fast. Getting the hang of the accrual and cash basis. Lunch was at North Canteen, ate the Salmon Omelet rice, forgot the Japanese name. It was nice, but too little. Throughout the day I was coping with my hungry stomach, should have bought something else to eat. Stats Theory tutorial went through some questions only, then the rest of the lesson was project discussion. Principles Of Marketing lecture today wasn't that interesting, cause Ms Paua kind of rushed through 2 lecture contents, but ended quite early. Then she didn't approve of me changing brands, sad. I want to do on OLDTOWN White Coffee! Have to stick to NTUC Fairprice I guess, should have told her last week I wanted OLDTOWN White Coffee... Regret. Went to the track after that, for Athletics. Today got 4.8km time trial, I did not do well, 21 mins 23 secs... Must buck up. Went home for dinner, super hungry, ate quite a lot. O:

Busy And Sleepy

2009-05-17T23:37:00.000-07:00

Woke up early today, got ready to go to church, reached church at 9:30 AM. Had Children's ministry duty, supervisor job not easy! Got a lot to do. Everything was alright, from games to bible lessons. Evaluation ended late, so did not go for youth service. Instead, went with my godbrother, Jared, to eat Ba Chor Mee again. As usual, the $4 one. Then my godfather, which is his father, joined us. Jared left earlier for his choir practice. I went home after lunch. Reached home, napped for like more than 3 hours. Now doing Principles Of Marketing ICA 1. Changing my brand, will inform Ms Paua. I'll be doing OLDTOWN White Coffee! And I just ate supper, Kaya Toast + Milo, was super hungry, much better now. (:

Happy Birthday My Younger Sis!

2009-05-16T22:31:00.000-07:00

Today is a fine day. Morning Mum bought duck noodles, nice. Then went out with Mum and younger sis to Toa Payoh hub, walked to OldTown White Coffee to eat! :D Had a hard time choosing Ipoh Hor Fun and Curry Mee, in the end chose Curry Mee, nice. The iced coffee is nice, but very small cup. The polo bun also nice, simple and tasty. Overall food is good, a little pricely though. Then younger sis went to Mindchamps, I went Giordano, Hang Ten and Bossini together with Mum, bought some clothes, simple ones. Then I went church for meeting, meeting ended at 7 PM. So I rushed back home, watch Manchester United vs Arsenal. Score ended 0-0, United not deserving to get the point. Mum cooked quite a feast. Had chilli crabs, baked crayfish, 'lala' in steamed egg tofu, bittergourd & pork ribs in black bean sauce, baked chicken wings, stir-fried vegetables and dumpling soup. Just had banana chocolate cake from Royals, nice. (: That's it for my day.

Feels Great To Be Back

2009-05-15T23:45:00.000-07:00

Hmm, how shall I start? So morning woke up and got ready for school as usual, laced up my soccer boots before leaving the house. Reached school few minutes early only, tapped my card then went in lecture hall. Today was POA lecture, could understand the first half of the lesson. On the short break, the lecturer went through the absentees... My class super 'zai', a few absent but marked present... Obviously people help tap card, haha. The Kevin attendance bad enough, still can afford to not go and never ask people help him tap card also. Second half of lecture could roughly understand only, must catch up fully. So lecture lasted for less than 2 hours. After lecture, a group of friends went east coast park, but I couldn't afford to go, had to go home early, family go out for dinner. I went to collect my ez-link card, the printing of the photo is poor. Then I went home, napped. Woke up almost 3 PM, quickly go eat. Then went to Kranji Secondary school for soccer training! I arrived then got lightning... At least after the lightning risk stop, can play awhile. Ok, back to blogging. Was held up by conflicts over small matters. Just can't understand... Why can't people understand, I admit friends are important. But I'm so stretched, so many commitments, but what're friends for? Support? But they are not. Oh well, secondary school best, those are true friends. I really wanted to go East Coast Park, but I'm really tied up. I just want to faint, easy for them to say, they nothing on on that day... I guess human nature = selfish? So just now had family dinner at Ang Mo Kio hub, Pepper & Lunch, younger sister's birthday, early celebration. Don't feel like blogging already, no mood. I am pissed, good enough to blast out against any nuisance or slightest unnecessary disturbances. Bye.

If Only I Woke Up Later

2009-05-14T23:56:00.000-07:00

Love nature, beautiful sceneries.

Made my best effort to rush to school today, was on time. In the end? Dr. Badri arrived super late, then projector not working... Then since the delay was too long, he decided to postpone our lecture on Monday 8 AM - 10 AM. Argh! Monday already have school from 10.10 AM - 6 PM then still got CCA... So went tutorial room, got like 40 minutes to spend, just used laptop. Effective writting skills tutorial was ok, did online assessment and textbook exercises. Lunch was at Kou Fu, our group today was smaller, all guys. Ate Western food, chicken chop + spaghetti + fries. Sound a lot but not really, the sauce for chicken chop not that good, it is exactly mash potato sauce, but generally not bad. Spent the rest of the break using laptop, then discussed on the Stats Theory project. Principles Of Marketing tutorial ended early, we simply went through the tutorial questions, of course I never do finish, too many until wanted to faint. After lessons, I went to fast food canteen to use + charge laptop. 6 PM then went to track. In the end started running late, past 7 PM I think, cause was waiting for a senior but in the end never join us. Me and Giebert ran round the grass for an hour. The other year ones also never go, just us 2. Cooled down after running, changed up and bought A&W Root Beer along the way, quite shiok actually. Was perspiring rather profusely as well... Reached home past 9 PM. And... Still deciding where to go after lectures tomorrow. Got a likely decision in my head already.

I Want The Ability Or Tool To Further Extend Time

2009-05-13T22:53:00.000-07:00

Hiro Nakamura. Maybe I need his ability to control time and space.

Well oh well... Today school started at 10.10 AM, 3 hours of Business Software Applications module, Microsoft Access. The later part could not really keep up, because the teacher a bit fast and we had a MSN conference, whahahaha. But very fun to nudge, those E-Buddy noobs will get their window pop up and the screen will shake, then they lag, hahahaha. Who ask them use the lab computer? No MSN, I always bring laptop so will use laptop. 12.55 PM lesson ended, so go meet 2 'friends' for lunch, from Business Management course. If I knew, I'd try BM, they say cut off point only 16? That's like my course... Ate at North Canteen, after so long, I ate Chinese Rice... Don't know what to eat actually. Then... Went off to block H to use laptop while waiting for Jeremy to go Campus Crusade together. Was using Facebook, then made a quiz, super random questions. Hmm, then me and Jeremy went to Campus Crusade late, the speaker has already started on his message. Talked about time management but I guess kind of no effect, too many things to do for me! Too many to list them out. So 5 PM went for CCA, warm up and all, I only ran 3 rounds for warm up run, supposed to be 6... Imagine if I ran 6, my legs sure cannot walk to MRT already... Today training was ( 400m + 300m + 200m + 100m ) x 3. And was told to at least use 95% speed, got difference from 100% meh? Not say no stamina, but it is the legs that had no strength and was rather aching, so could not run fast at all. Hope I could extend time, so can sleep & rest more...

Happy Birthday Mum!

2009-05-12T20:23:00.000-07:00

Today... Woke up at 7.50 AM ah! Lesson starting then I wake up. First time I was late for school. Quickly packed up, changed up and rushed out of the house. This time no mistakes in reading the time, I saw the digital time as well. I supposed to wake up more than an hour earlier, can slap myself already. Reach school, rubbing salt to my wound, the security guard made me go take temperature with long queue, fortunately it didn't take long. I reached class 1 hour late, then of course teacher asked me why so late, then I replied that my alarm clock got problem, really mah. At least Polytechnic not like Secondary Schools, will punish. The teacher was kind enough, I think she gave me a chance. Not sure about that. First lesson was effective writting skills, was trying to catch up. After lesson ended, went to fast food canteen with a big group of friends as usual to eat. Tuesday lunch break is just too early, 10 AM. Then I ate Sausage Mcmuffin with egg, upsized. After eating, I sat with the boys, then we were like taking turns to tell jokes and some riddles. Fun. (: I told the Mr Bean joke, haha, you can ask me about it. Once again, we had to wait outside the lecture hall for so long, another leture was going on inside. So Macroecons lecture was next, I was super tired, head was down when the lecturer play some videos. Then lecture ended early, fortunately. Went to Cheers to buy the bottled StarBucks coffee, Frappucino. Did help me to stay awake on the next lesson, Macroecons tutorial. Mr Chang's voice too soft, can't really hear him at times, at least he is patient. He say he got asthma or something like that, so cannot project his voice. After tutorial, I went the IT show to buy a laptop bagpack, $52, but quite good. I went back early, my mum's birthday mah! So cannot go back late and make her worry, and must celebrate with her. We went to a Shanghai restaurant at Bukit Panjang Plaza, I didn't know we'd go restaurant, so I wore sleeveless, shorts and slippers, so awkward. But then, Happy Birthday Mum! You're awesome. (:

No Happy Vesak Holiday

2009-05-11T22:30:00.000-07:00

Still have to go back to school, not like the young little kiddies with uniforms, haha. MRT all the way to school, met Yu Qi at Yio Chu Kang station, then we walked to class and talked along the way. Our tutorial rooms were taken, but what was pissing is that the people were taking their own sweet time to leave when their class already ended late... So first lesson was POA, went through the questions, could understand and 2 hours quickly went past as usual. Lunch at fast food canteen, but never eat fast food. Ate the small stall which sells some noodles, fried bee hoon... etc. So I just ate fried bee hoon + mee + long beans + egg + deep-fried chicken wing. Not really filling, but at least tried that stall. Then I went Cheers to buy the box of the mint chocolates, finished it up in the tutorial room later. As usual we settled down in a tutorial room to use laptop. Hmm... Stats Theory tutorial next. Dr. Badri took over our lesson today, cause Ms Fung absent, slap yourself ah! He went through the project guidelines, and tutorial questions. I never write heading for the graph, then he as usual said, go slap yourself, haha. After Stats Theory was Principles Of Marketing lecture, today's lecture quite ok, and finished early as well. Cause Ms Paua was present. (: After lecture, I went up for Athlectics training. 2 km warm up run, then ran 200m, 20 sets with 1 minute intervals. So it was tiring, and I went home after that, rather late. Mum came home from Hong Kong already! Bought a lot of food stuffs, then got me a white and a black shirt. She say almost every day eat curry fishball, and she said nice. Haha. She said Hong Kong food is good, every time think of eating, haha. I want to go! ):

Mothers' Day

2009-05-10T20:13:00.000-07:00

Can't celebrate, Mum in Hong Kong. ):

Today I went to Church early for Cildren's church duty, lasting for the whole month. The service overall was ok. After that, some of us were selling the Mothers' Day gifts, the cards difficult to sell out, but eventually could sell out. Then was evaluation, supervisor job not easy. O: Then I went down together with Eugene to eat Ba Chor Mee, ordered the $4 one as usual, iced winter melon tea for drink. Then I went up for youth service, went in for the sermon. Pastor Ben was invited to speak again, overall got power in the sermon. After service, went home. Was walking in Bugis MRT, then someone tapped me from behind. And is was non other than the Ah Seng, Goh Chin Seng. (: Then we just talk awhile, then I left to take bus home, he went to do his project. Reached outside my doorstep, rang the doorbell but no one at home. I thought: 'Dead, I'd be stuck here'. Lucily I reached there late and after just awhile, Dad and younger sis reached home. Next time must bring keys along. Then I had quite a long afternoon nap, shiok. If Mum isn't at Hong Kong, sure celebrate for her. Now Sis could celebrate for her there. I want to go Hong Kong! ):

Recce At West Coast Park

2009-05-09T23:57:00.000-07:00

Morning woke up quite late, felt quite tired, or rather maybe my body has gotten lazy. Met some group of church mates in Clementi MRT at 2 PM. Walked one whole round to the interchange... Bought a drink along the way, cold honey water. Took 175 to West Coast Park, bought a medium cup of Sprite upon reaching there, super thristy. And Eudora met us there, suddenly saw her at Macdonalds. Then we go about to recce the place for the nocturnal camp, after awhile of exploration and playing around, we went back to Macdonalds. Had some of Cornelius' fries with chili + mayo + pepper, nice. (: Then I went back home, 176 all the way to Bukit Panjang Interchange. Slept halfway during the journey... A small boy had to wake me up when we reached the interchange, quite embarrassing. Just now did some fitness training, 7 sets of 12 storey steps climbing. Now got Jackie Chan movie on Channel 8, racing and martial arts, nice. That's all, bye.

Late To Early

2009-05-08T22:15:00.000-07:00

Today... I so got owned. Why so? Because I woke up feeling anxious on the fact that I did not set my alarm, so I thought dead, late already. Then I darted to the kitchen to take a look at the clock, I read the time as 9.40 AM?! So I rushed, quickly washed up and anyhow change into a T-shirt and berms, then throw stuff into my bag and rushed out of the house. Until I was in the LRT station SMSing Zhen Bang and he tell me I still got 1 hour left, I went like... Huh? How come got 1 hour? That's when I took a look at the time on my handphone... Then it read, 8.55 AM. I was like... What the heck?! I actually misinterpreted the time. So I reached school early. Lecture started on 10 AM. Had no breakfast, ate a little of the twisties (tomato flavour) that Cassandra shared. POA lecture was so-so, that part also kind of went through before. Lecture lasted for 2 hours, so I went home after that, felt exhausted. Before that I went to the stalls at the Atrium which were selling laptop and electronic accessories. Reached home just wanted to lie on the bed awhile, in the end I dozed off till 5 PM?! Did not feel that well, plus I did not eat lunch yet, so I cooked some noodles for myself. And of course I did not go training, wanted to go badly, today intense, but did not feel that well and I was going to be late anyway. And that's all.

Go Slap Myself

2009-05-07T12:50:00.000-07:00

Random scenery.

This morning Mum and Sis went to Hong Kong... So good... Then I left home for school around the same time. Stats Theory lecture at 9 AM. Dr. Badri's lecture funny, and also can understand well. 'Go slap yourself' - his favourite line. Hahaha. Today's lecture quite a lot of laughter. After that was Effective Writting tutorial. Suddenly felt a little bored, then used MSN quite a lot. We did a quiz, teacher go through the Chapter 3 and then do practices. After lesson, we went to Kou Fu to eat. At first quite difficult to find seats, but finally it was settled. Ate Nasi Lemak, not bad. (: Then we went to our tutorial room to use laptop. That room suddenly cannot use MSN, super screwed up. MSN cannot sign in or when can sign in, always get 'kicked' out. Principles of Marketing tutorial was quite ok, Ms Paua was back! Went through tutorial 3 questions and the ICA 1. Chose NTUC, wanted OldTown White Coffee, but don't know what promotions they have. After class, I went to the fast food canteen to buy ham mayo sandwich to eat, was hungry. Then went to track and slacked, training yet to start. Today's training was to run 1 hour non-stop round the field, so was about 10 km. Of course tiring, have been running, tomorrow speed training some more, 'jia lat'. Left for home after some stretching, washing and changing up and having a drink.

I Need Speedy Recovery!

2009-05-06T22:32:00.000-07:00

Not my school's stadium but somewhat similiar.

Devastating blow to Arsenal and the Arsenal fans, they crashed out of the UEFA Champions League, losing Manchester United 3-1, and aggregate 4-1. A season with no trophy once again, so they better work hard next season. Injury woes may have costed their past few seasons, their defence so vulnerable for that game. Back to today, lessons started at 10.10 AM. 3 hours of Microsoft Access module, did a lot on queries today. Today my load is much easier, just one textbook, no lecture notes, still quite heavy after some time of carrying, because of the laptop + the textbook. After lessons, I went to McDonalds to meet Shawn to eat lunch, he was with a group of friends, so I just joined in. Ordered double-cheese burger meal, upsize and the drink was Milo, costed me only $4.95. After lunch, me and Shawn went to sign up for the NYP road run - competitive (4KM). Then we went to find the Campus Crusade room, but cannot find. So we went to the library, then they say need the PM temperature taking sticker, we only had the AM one. So had to go all the way down to first floor to take temperature then go up 4 stories back to the library. Then we went in, found a table which only had one person sitting by it, he left eventually. So we settled there and used our laptops, just used facebook. Then we went for Campus Crusade. Around near 5 PM, we too 'malu' to just leave for Athletic training like that, so finally we left just before 5 PM. Changed up and reached the track, slacked on the seats for quite some time. Then later warm up run 2.4KM, followed by intensive stretching. Proceeded with our fierce training, supposed to run 600m as fast as we can, 8 sets with 5 minute-intervals. In the end we did 7 sets, some intervals like less than 5 minutes... At the end, my leg ached badly, because yesterday I ran more than 10 rounds with canverse shoes. Actually got the stamina to run, just that leg was aching + no energy. After that we did some stretching, I played around a little with the soccer ball and I went home after changing up, walked to the MRT station together with an acquaintance, don't know how to spell his name. So that's all for my tiring day, you know why I need speedy recovery? Because my training runs from every Monday - Friday...

Early Mocking

2009-05-05T23:29:00.000-07:00

Today basically keep getting mocked at because of Arsenal's upcoming UEFA Champions League match against Manchester United... As many of my friends are non Arsenal supporters and Arsenal is currently a goal down on aggregate... So, back to today. Reached tutorial on time I guess, still so many people not arrived. Before that was temperature taking, many people on the queue as usual. Effective writting skills tutorial first, did practices and test. Scored 85/100 for the test. Lesson finished fast to me. Then we went McDonalds to eat 'lunch' at 10. Saw Lionel there, long time never see him since he changed church, he came over and talked to me awhile. I order Sausage Mcmuffin with egg meal, should have upsized, what was I thinking?! Upsize not much difference in price and I'd get much more Milo! Then as we eat, listened to our new classmate, Austen, talking about his NS stories. Got a couple of ghost stories... Aiyo. Talked like almost 2 hours I think, then we go lecture hall and waited outside for quite long. Macroeconomics lecture next, quite boring actually, at least got some laughter... If the swine flu alert turns red, must start ICA 2 at home already. Gosh. Macroeconomics tutorial was next, Mr. Chang too soft again, lucky I sit in front, at least can still grasp on the topic. After lessons, went to change up then put down bags in gym. Then Hafiz, Darren and me went to the track and run. After a couple of rounds, Shawn joined me and we ran together, same pace. After running, I joined my friends in the gym but never do, forgot my towel. Then followed Gavin and Wilson, eventually went to buy drinks together with Wilson and I went home alone. Haha.

Colour Of The Day - Yellow

2009-05-04T23:21:00.000-07:00

Today woke up later than I wanted to, so I was pressing for time. Anyhow chose my clothes, wore a yellow T-shirt + berms today. Rubbing salt into the wounds, the MRT kept stopping in the middle of the track, wasting a lot of time. Saw Royston coming out from the same train as me. Only got to get close to him midway walking to school, tapped his bag but he still did not realised until I walked in front of him. Then we tried rushing to school, making it worse for us, a security guard blocked us and made us go do a quick temperature check, was quick but a lot of people. So did not reach the lecture hall in time to tap my student card, about 4 minutes late? So our Stats Theory's lecturer was back from India, Dr. K Badri. He's quite good, only have to catch his speed and indian accent, but I don't think I'd sleep in his lecture. He's a rather nice chap as well. Starting of the lecture, he talked crap, haha. Then he began teaching, could understand clearly. After lecture, had to submit my name and a little particulars in a paper as I did not get to tap my student card on time. Then was POA tutorial, 2 hours of lesson very fast gone. So maybe the lesson was good, POA so far quite steady. Lunch time at South Canteen again, ate Malay Rice. Then we (friends + I) went to settle down in an empty tutorial room, not actually empty, got people but no lessons were conducted. And I could use and charge up my laptop's battery. Stats Theory lesson was next, was quite ok... Did practices, 2 hours also quite fast finished. Finally was Principles Of Marketing lecture, oh my... Was a torture. Ms Paua today did not go school, so someone took over her lecture. Boring + I don't understand, fortunately only one day replacement lecturer, if not this module I may struggle. After school did not go for Athletic extra training, tired after long day. Oh yeah, about my title, because when today, me, Qixiang and Gavin stand in a line earlier on, we look some sort of 'brotherhood', all wear yellow top. Cause maybe yellow is some rather rare colour worn by people, so it may cause others to think we may have arranged this, but no. (:

One Way

2009-05-03T20:31:00.000-07:00

Today had to wake up early, as I had to go to Church early for Children's Church duty. Just helped out in 2 skits, and later on was an assistant in a class. After duty, it was time to go to East Coast Park. Today was baptism day, so our Church went there. Went there in my Godfather's car. Didn't eat lunch, so shared food here and there. Didn't really play soccer, no one like want to play also... Then went rollerblading with some friends. But expensive, $10 for 2 hours, 1 hour also same price. After rollerblading, then I played one game of bridge then went home. Was rather late and East Coast Park to my house is one long journey. Felt rather tired on my way home. Hmm, got to do some work, so this is all for the day.

Lots Of Work To Finish

2009-05-02T21:31:00.000-07:00

Feel like eating this, but Singapore outlets all closed down long ago.

Woke up at the sound of Mum's voice back from market. Basically today I had to do my tutorials and there is one ICA to do, which is under Principles Of Marketing. So got quite a lot work to finish up, I'm trying to finish them as fast as I can, tomorrow long day out. Then this afternoon got a short meeting in church, for the nocturnal camp. Lasted from 3 PM to before 5 PM. Then I went home to take a long nap. That's about all, have to proceed with my work.

Labour Day

2009-05-01T22:27:00.000-07:00

Hope you're all not working/studying too hard!

Woke up in the morning, with muscle aches all over my upper body + abdominals. I just knew it, everytime after do gym then wake up the next day is like that. Did not go cell outing, went out with family to eat lunch. Then went Grandmother's house, slacked there. Had to leave before 5 PM, got meeting in Shaw House, then I ate the vegetarian bee hoon at 4 PM, shiok. Then walked to MRT together with my aunt, she went civic centre or somewhere else. Then tried tapping my Ez-link card and they displayed... Card expired! What the...?! Had to call Dad to walk to the MRT to give me an Ez-link card... Can't they just wait for my new Ez-link card to reach me first?! Argh!!! Then I took a train down all the way to Orchard and walked to Shaw House... Meeting was quite long... We left past 9 PM. That's all, cutting it short.

Gym Training Begins

2009-04-30T22:14:00.000-07:00

Today can wake up late, lecture on 9 AM - 11 AM postponed. So I reached school around 11 AM, I know sure get 'suaned'... Arsenal lost 1-0 at Old Trafford. Never mind! There's still a second leg! Must keep the faith. So of course, I did get 'suaned', but immune already. Effective writting class was ok, went through textbook chapter 2 plus do exercises, very fast 2 hours gone. After that was break, one group of us (friends) went to south canteen to eat. Ate Chinese rice + food and ate the fried tofu also, recommended by Cassandra, not bad. Then we slacked aroun and went to settle down in an empty tutorial room, since our next tutorial room still occupied. Then as usual, enjoy air-con and use laptop. POM class was quite ok, Ms Paua. Went through the tutorial questions, she went through our ICA 1 as well. And we had a new classmate today, Austen. Released from tutorial half an hour early. Then went gym together with Darren, Hafiz and Jonathan. Hafiz was like our trainer, been through army already mah, so he pushed us. Gym training was considered fierce to me, I too weak already. Supposed to do with Shawn and Jeremy, they were there, but saw them got their special training, so do together with friends. After gym training, I could feel some of the effects, then we changed up and went home. Made my tertiary Ez-link card, then took the train together with Darren to Woodlands, then we took different buses from there home. Tomorrow is Labour Day, so have a great rest! (:

Accepting People

2009-04-29T23:11:00.000-07:00

Unity is a never ending circle of strength and joy.

Today school was quite relax, 3 hours of Microsoft Access module. Thankfully by God's grace, I could understand and pick up the whole lesson. And I finished the class assessment with ease, Ms Tan actually quite good lah. Then after school, went to the fast food canteen to eat together with some friends. Ate from the 'Grinning Gecko', ordered Alfredo (creamy pasta with chicken) and cream of mushroom soup, the Alfredo not bad but soup too salty for me. Then we walked to Kou Fu to meet the other group of friends, some of them were preparing to go K-Box. Of course I never go, scared later they jealous until 'buay tahan' lah. LOL. Kidding only, my singing is terrible actually. So I met Shawn, he with his friends. Then we used laptop for awhile then went Campus Crusade. Campus Crusade ok lah, cause never go really long then cannot judge, had some fun. Worship may not be powerful, but simple and good, good enough already. Then went for Athletics Orientation. Quite relaxed, when the real training comes, I will try to get serious. Waited for Shawn do high jump then came back home late. About my title, just went heavily in thoughts today. Thought of why shouldn't I just accept everyone for who they are, since I myself have many areas of errors. Even how bad the person we may judge him/her to be, he/she has virtues. Maybe I should face the positive aspects of the person and turn away from the negative aspects. Learning to accept people and free of criticism can make life much easier too. I am learning, it is difficult, I'm human afterall. People claim 'I hate backstabbers', 'Gossiping is bad', but they still gossip and backstab... Human nature, only have narrow views, same goes to me. If something doesn't happen to you or the people around you, it is like nothing. But when it does, you will then realise... But I am determined to 'break' this nature. Pardon me if you find any of me offensive to anyone, because I don't like hurting anyone myself, I mean no harm, peace. (:

I Will Make My Return

2009-04-28T21:20:00.000-07:00

Ah just got home from soccer trials, didn't get in to be honest. But wasn't totally disappointed, because disappointment won't help me get in the team. Had some learning points, I need to regain back my top fitness, pace and build up strength to try get in the team. Doesn't mean it is the last day of trials, I will forever not be in the team, I will work first and arrange for another trial. Since I'm talking about the trials, today Indra Sahdan went for the trials. Actually he no need trials also sure go in, tell me why wouldn't NYP accept an all time National player? Today I didn't play well, lack the pace and some fitness, so I will do some physical training to work on that. At least I get to be on the same team in the trials as Indra, it's an honour. (: Intending to join Athletics, tomorrow 5:30 PM got training, must go. Today lessons overall so so. Effective writting, teacher is actually good I admit, but pace a bit fast, can still catch up. Had no textbook, so use laptop do. Then 'lunch break' at 10 AM - 12 PM. Eat at Kou Fu with classmates, ate 'Ee Mee'. Then we tried finding somewhere to use laptop, firstly in a classroom, but later got one class was going to have lessons there. Then we moved to some round tables and benches, but no power supply, no choice. Then after that, got Macroeconomics lecture, this lecturer a little boring. Then followed by another 2 hours of Macroeconomics tutorial, the teacher actually ok, just that he too soft! He talk then suddenly don't know he is at, he just needs to be louder and have some commanding spirit. He being really too kind, he can teach quite well, can understand. After tutorial, I went to check out the gym together with Gavin, I went there to take a look only. Saw Shawn, the super muscular friend of mine, haha. Then talked to him. The gym facilities is really good, must go there train. Then I slacked in school then go the trials. That's all.

Screw Today's Trials

2009-04-27T21:29:00.000-07:00

Today woke up at 8.20 AM, packed up, ate steamed 'man tou' for breakfast and left for school. This time I took LRT and MRT all the way, less waiting time, so about the same. But MRT must confirm stand all the way. POA lesson was ok, went through tutorial question answers and did some questions as a class. Lunch break, I went together with some friends and ate at 'Kou Fu', the Japanese food not bad. Then our next classroom got people so must settle somewhere to use laptop, then shift to another vaccant classroom, then to our next lesson's classroom. Statistics Theory tutorial was a little boring, went through the homework questions and teacher wrote some sums for us to do. Then we were let off 30 mins early, slacked around before the Principles of Marketing's lecture. Ms Paua is serious the best lecturer so far, her lecture not boring and she let us off 1 hour early again! So slacked around in school before going the soccer trial. So many people went, like about 100, then I wanted to be midfield, the person throw me to be striker. One game can hardly touch the ball, my team players just anyhow clear, in the end they never select me yet. Screw it! Must go tomorrow again. Then they select some also not that good... Never mind, it's their choice.

ShamWOOHOO!

2009-04-26T08:18:00.000-07:00

Today took church bus to church, Mum had to drove off early. Supposed to reach at 9 AM but ended up very late, then go in for the bible study thing very awkward. But at least got go, then after that went up for service. Service was good, after service then went down together with Jared to eat Ba Chor Mee again, $4 with no chilli because of my throat. Then went up to church office, did the filming thing for the E-Training advertisement. The video quite cool. Then after that walked to the MRT with Jared, David joined us. Then halfway went 7-Eleven buy Woods Peppermint Lozenges, after eating 2 of that, still coughing. I napped at home as usual, weather was warm and made me lethargic. At night last minute had to buy soccer boots, tomorrow going the soccer trials, hope I get in. Then watched Star Awards 2009, got quite a number of TVB actors/actresses there, got Myolie Wu also. (: Then watched a little of Arsenal vs Middlesbrough, of course Arsenal won, 2-0, expected them to score more. Mmm, wondering why my title so out of place? Just love the 'ShamWOOHOO!' thing and was stuck in my mind. Wonder what's that? Watch the video below...

"Pwned"

2009-04-25T22:22:00.000-07:00

Really got so called "pwned", coughing like crazy, feeling quite tired and sick. Earlier in the day, I finally got to learn how to download Youtube videos and IMEEM music, I know I super noob, now then know. Cause last time lazy to learn, don't know why also, today felt quite free then thought of learning. Morning read the papers, saw Indra studying in my school. Yes, it is the National Soccer team player, actually I tuesday saw him, but could not believe it was him, thought it was some guy who looked like him, but it was him, he looked rather young. So afterall my eyesight not that bad, have some confidence in yourself man, Gabriel Soo! Then evening went to church for meeting, didn't felt like stepping out of the house at all, but camp meeting important, cannot anyhow don't go. Ended meeting at past 8 PM, a lot of discussion. Laughed quite a lot, quite a fun committee. (:

Throat Problem

2009-04-24T23:56:00.000-07:00

I think I need this badly. Or maybe some lozenges.

Throat felt uncomfortable and was coughing all day, hopefully it doesn't go worse to the extent that it'll be pain upon swallowing saliva. Today was quite a short and sweet day. Woke up at 8:20, then got ready fast and went out of the house early, bus arrived early. End up I reached Yishun so early, so just sat in the station and waited for few trains to go past, reached school early as well. Then the Lecture Hall no aircon turned on yet, warm and stuffy... Wonder how people sitting inside survive. Then the lecturer arrived early, today is POA lecture. Understood more of it, and this time lecturer had to end slightly late, cause he must teach parts of Debit and Credit. So lecture lasted from 10.10 AM - slightly past 12 PM. Then me, Royston, Joseph and Peter went to the nearby CC and checked out the Billards room. The tables all booked, so must wait, then we went back school to eat. Ate at south canteen again, the Ba Chor Mee not that good, still prefer the malay rice! (: Then when we eating finish, Royston was informed that one table is ready for us, then we hurry down to play. Super rusty already, many months never play. 1 hour $5.80, we played for 2 hours. Then went back home, napped for very long. So now super fresh. (:

Unity? More Time Needed

2009-04-23T22:56:00.000-07:00

Orientation, we were in class with our PM.

Today was told to bring the orientation jersey, had a feeling not everyone will wear already, so just left it in my bag, just wore my Black & White T-shirt and white long pants. Reached school, saw some of my classmates outside the bookshop area, asked me change to the orientation jersey, saw them wear, so I had the hope that the whole class will wear. In the end, go in Lecture Hall then saw so many did not wear... Never mind, alright, morning 9 AM started lecture on Statistical Theory, it was a replacement lecturer, a little boring you may say. Then next week the lecture postponed to the following Monday 8 AM! Cause then our lecturer will be back. Monday plus that lecture then 8 hours of study already, so dead. At least not secondary school, one period which is half an hour like super long, for me now one period of lesson which is an hour is fast. After the lecture was the effective writting tutorial. Continued and completed the diagnostic test, never calculate overall, not important also. Then the teacher, her name long (indian), so forgot her name, started teaching on effective commuication already. Then later we do laptop assessment and lesson was over. Then followed a group of classmates to South Canteen to eat. While walking to past some stalls, Jeremy tapped me hard from behind, surprised to see him. So I ate Malay Rice, $2, I know not cheap for secondary school, but this is Polytechnic! It is cheap for me, quite nice also. But I missed my secondary school's malay rice with that special chilli. (: After eating, we went back to class basically and had about an hour more of break, so used laptop, went online, played Big 2.5. Then the tutorial teacher came in slightly late, Ms Paua (pronounced as Phua). She's like the best lecturer so far! Her lecture not boring, so far from one 2 hour lecture experience. Her lesson also not funny, the intro part funny, hahaha. Then she started teaching a little on Marketing, and she gave us a little homework, and lesson was over. About 1 hour early release again! But the lesson was really super fast, zoomed past me, maybe her lessons good. (: Tomorrow will be great, 2 hour lectures only (rounded up)! Then after school went the last day of CCA sign up, signed up for the Campus Crusade. Then was reminded to go church for meeting, halfway wanted to go, Rachel say it'll be short, so never go... Reached home and napped for super long, past 9 PM. Really tired.

Club Crawl

2009-04-22T20:03:00.000-07:00

Today no need bring much stuff, 3 hours lessons only, if minus break then less than that. Morning woke up at around 8.20 AM. Of course tired, cause earlier on watch Arsenal vs Liverpool. Wasted lah Arsenal, can win then in the end draw 4-4. Arshavin score 4 siah, 2 nice goals. Back to my day, so I reached school early, 9:40+ AM. Lessons supposed to start at 10.10 AM. Then all 3 periods was computer lab, Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Access module. We're starting with Microsoft Access first, a little complicated. The online assessment I did not do well some more. Never mind, I will work on that! After lessons, followed a group of classmates, Mark needed to do the EZ-link card thing, in the end walk here and there, we went to the Sports Hall see the CCA booths. I signed up for soccer, got trials on 27th/28th April. After that I went home, quite tired. So that's all, tomorrow another long day. Shall post a video on our orientation, the cherade game.

LOL. Jia Han joker man, people do the obvious Popeye action, he go sabotage. The most funny thing is, the action turned into a whole different thing, how to guess?!

One Hour Early Dismissal

2009-04-21T18:17:00.000-07:00

Today slightly late for school, start at 8 AM. On my way to class, whole lot of people slowly walking, difficult to pass through... Then when about to take the escalator to Atrium, Zhen Bang joined me. Then the both of us walked to class together. First lesson was Effective Writting Skills, it is like our English lessons, teach us how to write proper reports, letters, etc. All related to business of course. Then we had introductions, then got diagnostic test. First section is choose the right option between 2 words to fit in the sentence, got one of the top, 43/30. Had careless mistakes, but just only a diagnostic test. Second section is choose the right option between 2 sentences on which is the right one. I scored only 20/25 for that. After about 2 hours of tutorial, then it is our early lunch break from 10.10 AM - 12 PM. Zhen Bang and I went to the lab to do our software installation straight. His took longer than mine, cause he had to uninstall his pirated Microsoft Office and install the whole thing. Then both of us went to eat lunch after that. We walked and walked and finally reached the South Canteen (did not know it was South Canteen at that time) at SEG (School of Engineering). We ate 'Shao Rou Fan' (roasted pork rice). Not that nice because I felt that it was a little too salty. Then we walked to the sheltered tables and benches and used the laptop, school got wireless connection everywhere. Found out my Bridge got into top 10 again, 8th. Then after break got lectures, Macroeconomics. The lecturer was Ms Chee. This lecturer a little boring, fortunately it ended early. Then after the lectures, Zhen Bang and I went to class, some classmates arrived before us, and some were using laptops. So I also used the laptop, facebook! O: After quite some time, the teacher came in, Mr Chang. Also teaching us Macroeconomics but tutorials. He not bad, maybe he quite old so no power in his voice only, but can see he trying. Then he let us off 1 hour early! So today dismissed at 3PM instead of 4PM! (: That's all for my long day in school.

First Day Of School: Getting Used To It

2009-04-20T22:28:00.000-07:00

Today is a long and tiring day, that's what will happen for my Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. We had 4 hours of tutorials and 2 hours of lectures, we had 2 hours of lunch break as well. Today's school was from 10.10 AM - 6 PM. I reached school before 10 AM. Saw some of my classmates and we walked to our class together. I was early for the first lesson, it was POA (Principles Of Accounting) tutorials. So it is like a POA lesson, but today was more of introduction, so never learn much. Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity, one important equation. Our teacher for that tutorials is Mr Chee, some boys went like Mr Chee... ___. So bad. He released us half an hour early for our lunch break. Then me and some friends went to the Theatre of Fine Arts to buy lecture notes, in the end the place super crowded. And of course never get to buy, by the time our turn, sure break going to end. Then I went down to the lab to do the laptop software installation. Rather little people, so I thought should be able to finish it by today. In the end got so many priority people, one person take very long to finish and got only like 2 - 3 technicians there to help. Then my friend, Joseph, and I had to pack lunch for ourselves and another friend. We pack indian food from the canteen and ate at the nearby tables and benches with shelters. In the end, I also never get to do the software installation, tomorrow then do. We had to proceed for the next lesson. Next lesson was Statistical Theory. Our teacher is Ms Fung, she said she was from Hong Kong, part time lecturer there. So she started teaching a little as well, many definitions and got do some practice. Got homework also... Look very profound some more. Sigh. After 2 hours of the tutorial, we proceeded to the lecture hall for our last 2 hours of lectures. The lecture is on POM (Principles Of Marketing). The lecturer not bad, not too boring... Then most of the people don't have the notes yet, so she briefly went through the lesson first, then let us off early. After that, I followed some friends to collect their new EZ-link cards and the bookstore, then we went to buy some lecture notes. The lecture notes not cheap... After that it is home sweet home! Just woke up from my nap, now all fresh to do some work. All these sums up my day, that's all.

School Term Starts Tomorrow

2009-04-19T23:47:00.000-07:00

Hmm excited or not happy? Maybe half half. Not really that prepared, still want a laptop bag pack. So today I woke up very early, super tired. Cause I slept about 3 AM just to watch Arsenal lose to Chelsea 1-2. Of course I was disappointed, but at least they played ok and they'll learn. Today got cell, then we just did a lot of sharing. Then went down eat $4 Ba Chor Mee and drank A&W Root Beer, super full after that. Then went up service, the advertisement video funny, haha. So all must go for the event to support! Sermon by Charles, not bad for a start, just that I was too tired and almost fell asleep. Then after service, I went back home straight and sleep for rather long. Then woke up and saw Jeremy's SMS, got meeting! Ah! I guess I forgot or something, too tired lah. So that's the bad thing. And that's about all for today, will be sleeping soon. Don't want to be late for school!

Simply Heartbroken

2009-04-18T11:48:00.000-07:00

Really don't know what to say or do... But the matter of fact, my heart really feels like it has torn into pieces, really painful. It was a last night affair, my heart woes out to this friend of mine. I have always treated him as a great friend all along, but now he's fallen and has hit out at me, I do not really have the mood for anything. If I could forsake all the fun just to bring this brother back, I don't mind. If my character is as fragile as a typical female's, I'd have broken into tears and burst out crying. Never I'd expect the situation could be so extreme, I just feel so helpless. God! Please help me find a solution for this. Even my mind is in a total mess now... What should I do? He has apparently stabbed me at the back, I don't blame him for that, but just that his sinful desires has gotten overwhelmed and blinded him. It has really open up my point of view that we often take quiet time too casually and don't make it something serious. But actually if we miss that out, with the sinful influences of the world, we'll definitely fall out and be sucked into the world. I know I can't stay like this forever, but I just can't bear to be in this reality. I can't take it anymore, people. I'm not emo, it's just that I'm totally hurt.

*Update (10:48PM): Just came back from church, camp meeting and prayer meeting. Had dinner in church too, we called in an order of 'Wonton Mees'. Then felt better after prayer meeting I guess, I'll try not bring the hurt emotions and affect others and myself. Guess all I could do is pray. Amen. Later got FA cup semi-finals, Arsenal vs Chelsea. Will watch. Ok, that's all. Bye.

2nd Day Of Orientation: More Fun But Drained Yet Again

2009-04-17T22:50:00.000-07:00

Today can wake up an hour later. Met Shawn in Yishun, then we went to orientation together. Arrived at the Sports Hall on time, yet still have quite a number of people arriving late and the whole thing started late also... Never mind, being punctual is a virtue. Then so many people never go orientation, bunch of slackers, but it is their loss. Today's orientation was fun. (: Did a lot of cheers, then we went to the hockey pitch, played 'Cabbage Captain's Ball' against another class, we won by a point, hehe. Quite difficult to play, but fun. Then we played volleyball against another class, combined classes against each other, with one super huge ball. Then we went sports hall, my skin by then was getting darker, then we played the sedan game, used strings to make a seat. One of our OGL (Orientation Group Leader) was the person sitting on it and we had to carry her and walk a distance. After that, we went down, back to the hockey pitch again. Played some signal game, then must run get the item. I received the signal too slow, then I have to get forfeited. The girl from the opposing class put like a lot of the toothpaste on my hair, my hair like got white gel, then must go toilet and thoroughly wash it away. Then went back the hockey pitch get my bag, on my way saw her then she asked if I was ok, then I replied that I was ok lor. For fun only, small matter. Then chiong get my bag and joined my class. So it was lunch time and our OGLs say McDonalds will be crowded then we agreed to go Koufu, got aircon. In the end, it was Koufu that was more crowded than MacDonalds and in the end we ate at MacDonalds. The price cheap, all meals near the price of $5, which is upsized I mean. Then followed my new classmate, Joseph, down to buy super glue, the soles of his shoe came off. Then our class went to sit in a circle after lunch, listen to our OGLs talk about the school. I was called by some people 'Mr Colgate' because of the toothpaste incident... Haha. Anyway, after that, we went down to the track for games. Mostly games that has to do with water, then got one game required toothpaste, but lucky only on my calf. The water bomb game was fun, none of us got hit when defending, then we smoothly got the cans, then opposing team got hit a lot, so we won. Then we go change into our orientation jersey, then gathered in the sports hall. Played 'Truth Or Dare' and the coin game. Then the Mr and Mrs Freshies show start, then got performances and all. Ended super late, slightly past 8 PM. Overall it was a fun orientation, fostered much better bonds among the class, and hopefully in near future, it will be fun too! :D

You guys should watch the video and really appreciate what we're having now seriously. So here's the link: http://www.cultureunplugged.com/play/1081/Chicken-a-la-Carte

1st Day Of Orientation: So Drained

2009-04-16T21:09:00.000-07:00

Ah yeah, as my title suggests, I have Nanyang Polytechnic's SBM (School of Business Management) freshman orientation. Starting like quite boring, somemore must go all the way to the back and sit at some quite place at the auditorium, cause my class area no space. So bascially before the lunch break, we had talks, all the talks is like some introductions to areas of the school. I felt like sleeping but can't sleep, must listen, if not I'd be one really lost sheep. Last night or rather it was morining, slept past 12 AM and woke up at 2:30 AM to watch Arsenal vs Villareal. Fortunately Arsenal won 3-0, if not I'd be dead flat. Maybe if Manchester United had lost or drew less han a score of 2-2, I'd be much more energetic. Lunch was rice and food, packed in a box, Ribena provided too. Then basically played games, we went into a classroom too, then our class mentor was introduced to us, Dr. Chan, Dr. leh, not Mr. Sounds more professional, maybe they are lecturers rather than teachers. Hahaha. The school giving me some free programmes like Anti-Virus software, cool. But after I graduate, must clear those programmes, stupd license. And we also going to get a new email account, 20 GB storage of emails, wow. We also did some dance, cheer. Get to talk to some new people. Overall the school may just be alright, but like any Polytechnics, got a number of Bengs and Lians ah. Unavoidable... They are trying to dominate Singapore, dumb asses. So no point ranting about that, will strive to do my best, heard from our class mentor that we'll be attached to some banks, must be professional. It'll be fun, so all the best to me! Eww, so pathetic, self-encouragement out loud. -.-

Orientation Starts Tomorrow!

2009-04-15T23:42:00.000-07:00

This is like my life now, peaceful but going to be disturbed. By school of course!

Why time just passes so fast?! To me just in a blink of an eye, about half a year's time of holiday gone. Boohoohoo! T.T Don't know what to feel for tomorrow, just know that I'll be one lost gundu telling myself where the heck I am. I mean new school, not used to the environment yet... So hopefully the next few days will work out well for me. Going to sleep early I think, tomorrow must wake up early, like 7 AM. And I want to watch Arsenal vs Villareal? Hmm, sleep first then say. So goodbye.
