jus remembered to type this in...
as i was returning home from e coffeeshop,
i came across my Baby's grave.
havent visited her at all since the last time she was buried there.
well, at least it seems the sandy, once-barren soil has grown out lushes of green.
yeah, i noe life is full of them.
but still, i hate goodbyes...
pls... no more,
I've had enough.
so yeah,
here's a song...
Sleep well, my Baby.

Im like so dejected today...
oh man...
first was e discrimination,
nxt was i rushed to sch jus to find that there wasnt any 101 lecture at 330pm!
n den at 430pm there was e 102 lecture, but like, we're already forced to self-study it with our given assignment which is due next wed.
n he's jus going thru it today...
but oh well, at least i came to sch to crash my fren's econs tutorial so tat i dun hav to go for tml's.
okok,
den nxt was tat, i was sooooo eager to get my shoes by today, jus to find tat e last pair is taken up by Ethan!!!
ARGH!!!!
tot there were at least more stocks of it!
nvm nvm...
patience...
good things muz wait!
fri will come soon!!!
yup yup *nods head*
oh n another thing,
i muz apologize for being too 'high' with adrenaline in class today!
hope i wasnt much of a nuisance n irritation.
could see a wee bit of e frustration in kai's face.
GOMEN! GOMEN!
=(
well, perhaps e adrenaline came from 1 round of pillioning Jane again?
yep, I saw her jus aft i ate dinner and was on e way out of e canteen.
n TADA~
there she stood with her partner Jeremy!
cant imagine I was actually as excited as seeing a fren!
like u noe, e usual feeling u get when u see someone familiar?
but aft a few secs, my instincts warned me in a different tune.
"HEY! IT'S JANE THE ENTHU-PILLION!!! RUNAWAY!!!"
time wasnt on my side...
if only i could stop e flow of time or jus teleport away...
yep...
being dragged to my bike while i was singing my usual helpsong.
"SHEN AH~ JIU JIU WO BA~"
i sobbed bitterly as i dragged myself to my bike...
oh, aft e 'offer',
while crossing e junction at e foot of nanyang hill,
i kinda cooked up an excuse n ran up e hill AFAP!
perhaps thats where my 2nd bout of adrenaline came from!
oh, today was e official last lesson before exams.
so we did a recap of everything we've learnt thus far!
n it's really hard to dance everything twice!
imagine jus Jive x 2!
it's crazy crazy crazy!
exhausted but not shagged
i've did much worse with a 2 mins full contact sparring compared to my 45 mins class.
OH OH!!!!
i'm actually pretty delighted to b in e 'top 9' !!!
*I WAS SOOO AMAZED we were actually selected!
=] =] =] =] =] =] =] =D
but it's too early to gloat!
jus look at all e PROs inside!
for a beginner to come thus far is an amazing achievement!
gotta work even harder to become a PRO ourselves!
GAMBATTE!
oh, i realized tat doing e spiral with shoes is much much easier!!!!
soooo smooth~
anw, gotta work more on my turns!
n my hips too!
*detach detach from body!*
yay!
tml's supposed to start at 830am,
but i guess...
actually i dun hav to go to sch at all tml.
but den..
guess i'll go for econs tut which i already crashed today.
JUS in case he even decides to take attendance at all.
(which he hasnt been doing for e all e tuts so far)
changing song to my 2nd fav rumba song!!!
oh n here's my breakfast for deepavali!
it's a choco cheesecake cupcake (err wateva tat means)
Yum Yum!
oh n here's a pic which i drew recently.
havent drawn for ages.
skills hav deproved i think.
proportions n angles abit wrong here n there...
oh man...

phew, havent updated for awhile.
due to all those long nights every night (or every morning)
too lazy to write down wat happened over e weeks but yeah.
lotsa events here n there.
i think i actually cant remem wat happened!!!
oh my oh my...
oh wells,
nvm
lets talk bout today.
other den it being a sunny sunny day.
i cant believe im actually being discriminated against!!! (or was it?)
hmm.
was having my usual meepok (my fav usual dish from times past)
*digress digress*
used to be fried rice when my appetite was big! like in sec sch?
den meepok was my usual when i didnt feel like eating.
den it grew to become mixed veg rice due to e variety of ingredients.
n now my appetite has yet grown even smaller,
meepok is back on e list!
YAHOO!!!
*back to topic*
anw today's meepok was nicee,
ate it at this partially modern and partially rundown suburban coffeeshop jus behind my house 5 mins away.
only ate there like twice or thrice in my entire life.
(YES i noe im super-pure lazy to even go down there)
went there on e way to find thinner for saffie.
n den like, this drink stall auntie asked e two ppl in front of me whether they wanted a drink.
den when she came to me, she seemed to totally ignore me n looked hesitant to ask me!
not til i gave her a glance!
okok tats jus e starting.
ordered e usual ice milo and when it came, guess wat?
It's $1.40!!!!
can u imagine that?
i think even e airconditioned kopitiam at e plaza sells it for much less!!!
let alone this not-here-not-there coffeeshop!
n not only tat,
i dun even hav a straw to drink with!!!
had to resort to sipping using e edge of e semi-black-rimmed cup!
oh my...
isit jus inflation + bad service or pure discrimination against this poor malay-looking chinese guy?
or isit my age?
but wait, that guy in front of me doesnt look older den me!
(ok, i look younger den my age but still...)
or isit that bottle of thinner in a plastic bag tat i placed on e table?
(does look like some tiger beer bottle though)
or isit my shirt?
or am i jus thinking too much!?
argh.
but $1.40 for a cup of strawless iced milo is purely atrocious!
shall noteat drink there ever again!
grrr...
okok, i can hear someone starting to lecture me: "In everything, give thanks!"
i get it, i get it.
cant believe tat i was entertaining e thought of being ashamed of being a christian jus now.
not really 'being' a christian persay se,
but rather, being one in this society where u always get associated with City Harvest.
like zettai ALWAYS.
im sorry but i really detest the idea of band music n waving of hands n jumping n 'dancing' in church.
i dun mind those at e club, coz that's wat it's for.
but a church?
n nono... i dun wanna be associated at all.
but u cant help it.
y cant churches b jus, u noe?
a silent and solemn place full of solace, peace and serenity?
oh wells...
i'd rather go clubbing den go to these 'sanctuaries'.

hmm where shall i start?
FRIDAY!
-------------------------------
YEAH!
haha we danced all e way til 12 this time!!!
lotsa lotas practice and aches and sharp pains!
yeah n even kaii was like having this acute sharp pain in her left hip aft sitting her weight on it.
OuChieE~
well, mine was no better, constant pain whenever i turn it.
but oh well,
hope it goes away soon enough.
oh, n Vega killed 2 bees with her slippers!!!
she's sooo brave!
ahha!
oh i was really suspicious when kx n ethan actually went backstage together.
like so shen shen mi mi!
n i was like wondering, y would they even need to go backstage?
my fears were allayed when e lights went off.
i initially tot they wanted to like adjust e aircon or something, u noe?
den a power trip would be e most apt answer.
den within a few moments, they came out slowly with a box of doughnuts in their hand,
singing a birthday song.
DEn again, I was thinking to myself.
"shdnt b me rite? Im sure there's someone else's bday being celebrated."
den they shouted at me coz i was too far away from e stage!
asked me to get closer else they had to shout out e bday song!
i was really in amazement!
but yeah, tat was e 1st surprise i received!
there were 12 nicee doughnuts!!!!!
oh my!
i love e cinnamon one!
awesome and totally creamy n sweet!
*big grinz*
the doughnuts were gREAT!
oh den i was supposed to do e rumba walk n serve e others e doughnuts!
(but i didnt)
hee.
den we had a great time of rolling on e floor,
jumping ard, twirling, cartwheeling and
spinning.
oh i learnt some paso doble as well!
cool stuff.
its like the man vs a bull with a cape
cant remem wat it is.
starts with a 't' i think.
nope its not rodeo.
anw, den aft tat we had supper at 'ah fang'!
didnt noe where it was, sokaii had to pillion me i had to pillion kai xuan for her to guide me e way.
reached kinda early sooo....
its a request to go 'dou feng'!
(n no, it's definitely not e kind when Jane took a ride from me, but it was a more relaxed n enjoyable kind.
feeling e cold wind pressing against e goosebumped skin)
so we went ard city harvest til we reached SAFTI and Pasir Laba camp.
den we turned into e PIE and passed by e side of NTU before exiting at e NTU exit n turning into city harvest again.
n e peeps werent there yet!!!
so we (or I) wanted to like ambush them at e bridge tat they were crossing but aiya,
theres no cover to hide in!
so we jus stood there waiting n went to e coffeeshop together.
ate this nice canto porridge with meatballs and you tiao.
YUM YUM!
e iced milo there was not tat bad too!
(n there were a bunch of viets making lots of noise at 1plus am in e morn! together with their mugs of beer.)
oh den aft tat i went back home n realized that i received a miss call n an sms.
Chinyaw wanna watch 'Mirrors' in his room n e rest were going!
n like, shucks, i jus reached home!
n like the sms was received 10mins ago, which was jus aft i left!
zzz.
hesitate hesitate...
in e end, decided to go home to wash up n grab a fresh new set of clothes b4 rushing back to sch!
can u believe tat?
haha.
230am on a sat morn.
i muz b sooooo crazy.
oh well,
when i reached there.
i gave a little scare to chinyaw from e window behind!!!
hehehe.
crept up to him n gave a loud shout!
haha!
all these b4 finally settling down in e humble n cozy room.
den when e gals came back from their showering,
we got down to turning off e lights,
and turning on e speakers!
wootz.
prepared for some action n we did get some in e 1st 10mins!
blood spurting everywhere!
kaii beside me was like squirming for help under e blanket!
n like it barely even started.
everybody wondered if she was gonna make it out 'alive'.
all these plus some muffled unheard dialogue led us to switch to silent hill.
well, not tat all scary and stuff but it makes u sit up in e chair.
aft tat comes an epic camwhoring session for like 2 hrs!
n it was already 4plus am!
played ard with chinyaw's n my cam.
before we knew it,
it was sunrise already!
ordered Mac breakfast and listened to some songs and sang some of them.
wat to do,
with e 3 others from choir.
n me being e odd one out.
haha.
i really cant sing.
hmmm, lemme recall.
one from HCJC choir.
one from AJC choir.
one from RJC choir.
n err, one from JJC tkd...
heeee.
yep.
yay!
BIG BREAKFAST!!!
everybody tucked in.
u could see how their faces glowed when e food came!
i still remem e 'dear frenz' sms sent by e delivery guy!
hahaha.
uber funny!
den aft all e fun,
we went back to our separate halls
sent kaii back to hers before going back to 'mine'
slept for a couple (ok, make it 3) hours before waking up again n rushing off to FEBC for e camp comm meeting.
n thanks to Yumi for e exhortation!
giving thanks even in e midst of trials!
den i went back home to catch a 30min nap before rushing off to bras basah for another week of lessons!
how ironic!
took 960 to FEBC,
went back home,
took 960, passing by FEBC to bras basah...
i muz b so crazy again.
den aft tat the bunch of us went to arab street.
some Zam Zam restaurant to try out e murtabak!
ordered all e four flavours!
Sardine, Beef, Mutton and Chicken!
n we shared it among e nine of us!
yum yum!!!
rated 8.5 by me!
(not tat i ever tried a 10/10 one b4)
oh den e grp broke up aft tat.
some went home.
some went to e toilet, dunno where they disappeared to aft tat.
left with Emily, Saffie and me to go to Bugis street to grab some stuff.
tried to look ard for some nice white jeans but there wasnt any...
not forgetting e white manhatten cap too!
den i went home to touch up on e 2 reflection papers.
SUN
---------------------------------------
yay!
woke up for church!
n as usual, met up with feng b4 going church.
he muz have been quite tired.
seeing him so silent and all...
but deep down i was much more zonked out.
imagine jus 3.5hrs of sleep for 2 days!
im GROSS.
yep den aft church,
i sped off to JE to meet up with e rogue faction of 04s26 for klunch!
reached there kinda late but well...
still had fun there!
yeah, was kinda willingly coerced to sing Taufik songs!
haha.
had great fun singing n jus blaring away into e mic!
n Shimin nvr sing much songs de!!!
n its great to see Zhi Jie singing so much tat day!
hahaa.
well, den aft tat i had to rush to Bugis to grab some last min stuff b4 my bbq.
n it was like 330pm le!
bbq supposed to start at 515pm!
so yeah,
chiong there in e MRT,
grabbed e stuff and chiong back home in a cab!
den i went home to change n freshen up.
n seriously,
i din really plan wat to wear for e day!
in fact i wanted to, but couldnt visualize tat image in my mind.
thankfully it all turned out well.
hee.
only had like 15 mins to adorn everything!
rushed off in my dad's car to e CSC.
n like, argh, im soooo late!
supposed to b at e MRT by 5 but i reached there at 526 instead!
den i think e faithful n punctual ppl who reached e CSC (not MRT) at 5 were Qiyang, Ghanim, Joseph, Kai Xuan and Saffie!
so the latter 3 kinda walked ard to try to find e place, i think.
saw them in front of e DAnce studio.
AH-HA!
wat a fitting place to spot them in!
n like qiyang n ghanim were helping out to carry e stuff!
im so touched!
honestly!
den we commenced e cam whoring n e bbq!
n there we hav qiyang again, always being magnetically drawn to e bbq pit to help with e roasting.
zzz.
nxt time i shall really tie u to e tree!
had lotsa fun 'taking attendance' using my cam!
den we did lotsa stupid stuff!
(luckily no 'ponding'!!! PHEE-EW~)
carried horizontally,
made to go upside down,
did e pyramid,
did cool poses,
almost recited e Scout law.
haha!
n oh,
e Choco cake was nice!
wat was better was e Chocolatey brownie cake!!!
SERIOUSLY, can feel e 'heart' being put into it.
Thanks BRA!!!
(even though i'm really amazed u baked it, n only e 2nd time!!!)
(im not belittling u, im jus shocked to noe tat u can cook/bake!)
oh oh,
there was nice food at e bbq!

choco bananas,
lotsa satay!
otak!
lots n lotsa marshmallows!
stingray n asparagus was gd too!
rosemary lamp chop.
buffalo wings!
n there were very little hotdogs....
i din get to eat any...
anw,
i think we left out e mushroom cheese!
shiitake mushrooms with melted cheese on top!
forgot to cook it!
oh my...
thinking bout them makes my mouth water again!
n it was all too soon.
it was 10pm in an instant!
so no choice,
had to end e bbq with a speech.
n seriously,
i was too too thankful and really feeling so blessed inside tat i didnt noe wat to say other den jus lotsa thank-you's
n yeah, im surprised i couldnt crap anything out at all!
so yeah, i guess i'll state it here, jus a brief 1:
'It's really my blessing to be seen thru many segments of my life with my frens.
frens tat stayed close beside me.
frens tat stucked onto me and provided assistance when i needed it.
frens who were there during my downs.
frens who were there during my ups as well.
frens to share joys n burdens with.
frens to jus crap n joke with.
frens to disturb and poke fun off.
frens to cry with.
frens to laugh with.
frens who make my day.
frens who dont.
frens, and all those times together.
thanks to all who read this.
I do hope and pray tat our frenships will nvr wear out,
that these bonds will stay.
"Thanks!"
I know not how else to describe it.'
aft reaching home,
i tried to finish my assignment til 530am in e morn!
zzzz.
MON

that it can b classified under e 5 categories!
Cha cha, Rumba, Jive, Samba/Salsa, Paso Doble!
although some songs from Samba can b used for Cha cha too!
n yep, I love Rumba e best! 2nd would b Jive!
too bad i suck at e cucaracha...
yep den aft tat, we learnt e 3 step spin for Rumba during competitor's class.

in e end, decided to go home to wash up n grab a fresh new set of clothes b4 rushing back to sch!
can u believe tat?
haha.
230am on a sat morn.
i muz b sooooo crazy.
oh well,
when i reached there.
i gave a little scare to chinyaw from e window behind!!!
hehehe.
crept up to him n gave a loud shout!
haha!
all these b4 finally settling down in e humble n cozy room.
den when e gals came back from their showering,
we got down to turning off e lights,
and turning on e speakers!
wootz.
prepared for some action n we did get some in e 1st 10mins!
blood spurting everywhere!
kaii beside me was like squirming for help under e blanket!
n like it barely even started.
everybody wondered if she was gonna make it out 'alive'.
all these plus some muffled unheard dialogue led us to switch to silent hill.
well, not tat all scary and stuff but it makes u sit up in e chair.
aft tat comes an epic camwhoring session for like 2 hrs!
n it was already 4plus am!
played ard with chinyaw's n my cam.
before we knew it,
it was sunrise already!
ordered Mac breakfast and listened to some songs and sang some of them.
wat to do,
with e 3 others from choir.
n me being e odd one out.
haha.
i really cant sing.
hmmm, lemme recall.
one from HCJC choir.
one from AJC choir.
one from RJC choir.
n err, one from JJC tkd...
heeee.
yep.
yay!
BIG BREAKFAST!!!
everybody tucked in.
u could see how their faces glowed when e food came!
i still remem e 'dear frenz' sms sent by e delivery guy!
hahaha.
uber funny!
den aft all e fun,
we went back to our separate halls
sent kaii back to hers before going back to 'mine'
slept for a couple (ok, make it 3) hours before waking up again n rushing off to FEBC for e camp comm meeting.
n thanks to Yumi for e exhortation!
giving thanks even in e midst of trials!
den i went back home to catch a 30min nap before rushing off to bras basah for another week of lessons!
how ironic!
took 960 to FEBC,
went back home,
took 960, passing by FEBC to bras basah...
i muz b so crazy again.
den aft tat the bunch of us went to arab street.
some Zam Zam restaurant to try out e murtabak!
ordered all e four flavours!
Sardine, Beef, Mutton and Chicken!
n we shared it among e nine of us!
yum yum!!!
rated 8.5 by me!
(not tat i ever tried a 10/10 one b4)
oh den e grp broke up aft tat.
some went home.
some went to e toilet, dunno where they disappeared to aft tat.
left with Emily, Saffie and me to go to Bugis street to grab some stuff.
tried to look ard for some nice white jeans but there wasnt any...
not forgetting e white manhatten cap too!
den i went home to touch up on e 2 reflection papers.
SUN
---------------------------------------
yay!
woke up for church!
n as usual, met up with feng b4 going church.
he muz have been quite tired.
seeing him so silent and all...
but deep down i was much more zonked out.
imagine jus 3.5hrs of sleep for 2 days!
im GROSS.
yep den aft church,
i sped off to JE to meet up with e rogue faction of 04s26 for klunch!
reached there kinda late but well...
still had fun there!
yeah, was kinda willingly coerced to sing Taufik songs!
haha.
had great fun singing n jus blaring away into e mic!
n Shimin nvr sing much songs de!!!
n its great to see Zhi Jie singing so much tat day!
hahaa.
well, den aft tat i had to rush to Bugis to grab some last min stuff b4 my bbq.
n it was like 330pm le!
bbq supposed to start at 515pm!
so yeah,
chiong there in e MRT,
grabbed e stuff and chiong back home in a cab!
den i went home to change n freshen up.
n seriously,
i din really plan wat to wear for e day!
in fact i wanted to, but couldnt visualize tat image in my mind.
thankfully it all turned out well.
hee.
only had like 15 mins to adorn everything!
rushed off in my dad's car to e CSC.
n like, argh, im soooo late!
supposed to b at e MRT by 5 but i reached there at 526 instead!
den i think e faithful n punctual ppl who reached e CSC (not MRT) at 5 were Qiyang, Ghanim, Joseph, Kai Xuan and Saffie!
so the latter 3 kinda walked ard to try to find e place, i think.
saw them in front of e DAnce studio.
AH-HA!
wat a fitting place to spot them in!
n like qiyang n ghanim were helping out to carry e stuff!
im so touched!
honestly!
den we commenced e cam whoring n e bbq!
n there we hav qiyang again, always being magnetically drawn to e bbq pit to help with e roasting.
zzz.
nxt time i shall really tie u to e tree!
had lotsa fun 'taking attendance' using my cam!
den we did lotsa stupid stuff!
(luckily no 'ponding'!!! PHEE-EW~)
carried horizontally,
made to go upside down,
did e pyramid,
did cool poses,
almost recited e Scout law.
haha!
n oh,
e Choco cake was nice!
wat was better was e Chocolatey brownie cake!!!
SERIOUSLY, can feel e 'heart' being put into it.
Thanks BRA!!!
(even though i'm really amazed u baked it, n only e 2nd time!!!)
(im not belittling u, im jus shocked to noe tat u can cook/bake!)
oh oh,
there was nice food at e bbq!
spaghetti,
salad,
choco bananas,
lotsa satay!
otak!
lots n lotsa marshmallows!
stingray n asparagus was gd too!
rosemary lamp chop.
buffalo wings!
n there were very little hotdogs....
i din get to eat any...
anw,
i think we left out e mushroom cheese!
shiitake mushrooms with melted cheese on top!
forgot to cook it!
oh my...
thinking bout them makes my mouth water again!
n it was all too soon.
it was 10pm in an instant!
so no choice,
had to end e bbq with a speech.
n seriously,
i was too too thankful and really feeling so blessed inside tat i didnt noe wat to say other den jus lotsa thank-you's
n yeah, im surprised i couldnt crap anything out at all!
so yeah, i guess i'll state it here, jus a brief 1:
'It's really my blessing to be seen thru many segments of my life with my frens.
frens tat stayed close beside me.
frens tat stucked onto me and provided assistance when i needed it.
frens who were there during my downs.
frens who were there during my ups as well.
frens to share joys n burdens with.
frens to jus crap n joke with.
frens to disturb and poke fun off.
frens to cry with.
frens to laugh with.
frens who make my day.
frens who dont.
frens, and all those times together.
thanks to all who read this.
I do hope and pray tat our frenships will nvr wear out,
that these bonds will stay.
"Thanks!"
I know not how else to describe it.'
aft reaching home,
i tried to finish my assignment til 530am in e morn!
zzzz.
MON
---------------------------
usual...
sch, home, sleep.
skipped FCM to rest at home.
Tues
----------------------------
woke up at 11am today!
finally some decent rest!
haha.
went to sch at ard 4pm when e sky was dark n pouring jus 15mins earlier!
reached there for a lecture b4 going on to crash a tutorial as usual.
sch's jus 2hrs today for me coz it's e-learning week for csc101!
den aft tat went to sit in canteen 2 to soak up e smell n listen to some music n try to mug.
den i ate a huge portion of gong bao ji ding!
nicee n mildly spicy!
yumm.
mouth watering now!
den we ate Grape Rape!!!
whee~
finally!
its awesome!
Grape flavoured ice shavings with grape toppings and grape sauce over it!
FABULOUS!
OISHII!!!
den we were super duper late for class!
jus when we were walking up to Nanyang House
i kinda forgot Joseph's waffle!
so had to run back to buy it b4 running up e steep slope n long flight of stairs up e hill!
so late tat we din get to prac Jive today!
anw,
we learnt SAmba!!!
wootz!
really hard to coordinate all e actions together!
but its really cool!
n i really jus realized aft screening n filtering thru all e LAtin songs,
that it can b classified under e 5 categories!
Cha cha, Rumba, Jive, Samba/Salsa, Paso Doble!
although some songs from Samba can b used for Cha cha too!
n yep, I love Rumba e best! 2nd would b Jive!
too bad i suck at e cucaracha...
yep den aft tat, we learnt e 3 step spin for Rumba during competitor's class.
n oso e 1 step spin.
i think i spinned too hard n vigorously til i felt nauseous!
now i still feel e dizziness...
i think we practised til 1030 today.
twirled, spun and concussed!
so yep,
tats e recap of wat i have been doing over e past few days.
n i think i'll hav to go grab some pajamas soon!
nitez all!

Starlight, star bright...
phew, jus came back from a morning jog.
yeah, started jogging at 1am.
YAY! i finally completed my assignment for programming!
(which is like due in 13hours time...)
n oso half of my EC assignment!
have not much time left to complete e other half.
since it's due on mon.
anw, i jus speculated tat e best time to see e Orion's belt at night from my window would b at 1.30am!!!
coz by 4am, e constellation would b almost directly above my head.
i'll have to stick my head out of e window jus to observe it.
anw, here are the photos of ytd aftnoon n night.
took a pic of e died-down lightning storm.
its so heavy tat e visibility is close to 0!
(at its peak)
click to enlarge for a better view!
anw, last night i was so bored tat i ended up taking pictures of e constellation at ard 4am.
can u spot the Orion's belt?
n no, e sky isnt TAT bright at night!
anw, here it is!!!
ta-daa~
at first i tot e belt was e string of 3 stars in a row!
found out i was wrong aft i googled it.
haha!
its actually shaped like an hourglass with a tilted line.
so amazing isnt it?
hmmm,
mayb a few months down e road i'll get to spot e famous big dipper ya?
n all e other constellations
provided tat it isnt cloudy at night.
yeah anw,
its so ironic how im being encouraged by someone who deserves more encouragement den me.
but oh well,
hope this in turn encourages her more!!!
think positive!
n press on!
n oh!
feng's driving test tml!
all e best ya?
am waiting for someone to drive me ard!
n nope, i havent started on my driving lessons yet.
jus no time at all.
n ya, im envious tat many ppl ard me hav e license already...
i feel so inferior.
sob sob
oh wells,
what is meant to be, will work out perfectly!
(but even Clement has his license too!!!)
nxt thing,
i tried something new today,
changed my usual mugging songs from the instrumental FFX-2 piano collections to trance / heavy metal.
bo bian,
instrumental lost its grip on me today.
so i had to blast real loud through my headphones n yeah,
it works!!!
mayb it's this x-factor in this genre of music tat gives me e 'oomph'!
n i think im gonna b deaf soon.
while jogging, i usually turn on my music to vol3.5, max 4
but today, it seems as if i cant hear e music.
so i turned it up to volume5!!!
n beside, my earphones are not e standard ones.
they r e louder den usual earphones!
so if i use a normal earpiece,
i would need ard a volume 6 or 6.5!
sony ericsson users shd noe how loud tat sounds.
im muz b CRAZY!
=X
ANW
now is e crucial time!
endure n excel guys!
boost ur morale!
lift up ur spirits!
GAMBATTE!!!

i was actually rather afraid too!
im not gonna do tat ever again!
even though i knew she could take it.

i was like, "oh my, im already so terrified! n u arent?"

WHEE!!!!
dance was fantastic on sat nite!
learnt much more stuff den we could ever learn.
we touched up on e basics of our steps.
ie. e step refinement.
cant believe that our instructor, Mario, can turn something so simple into something so delicate and precise!
n yeah...
SUAY SUAY KANA CALLED UP AGAIN!
n like in front of his pro dance class, he called up 3 frm there, n me as e last example from the NTU group.
asked us to show our 'New York' step with our partners.
den i was like stunned stunned blur blur when i walked up to e centre.
i was thinking at that point of time, "Oh gawrsh, y am i being called...?"
but anw, we had fun while dancing again!
n yeah, today had to dance with my partner n Saffie coz she didnt hav a partner.
n like e diff was super great!
KaiXuan dances with bigger steps while Saffie dances like almost literally on e spot!
it's as if she doesnt move at all!
im like SOOO not used to it.
yeah den aft tat, some of us went to try on e shoe sizes.
n nope, i think e USA imports weren't here yet.
but den Saffie got hers for only 40 bucks!
clearance sale somemore!
n mine has to be 75, aft a 15dollars voucher...
yes, we're all ENVIOUS!
den aft tat i went to join e rest at Beach Road for some Bak Kut Teh.
but like, they din noe where e shop was located!
n like, i was with my bike... so it was harder for me to find where they were!
zzz.
went round n round e same place over n again.
tats e 2nd big prob with bikes.
its a lone ranger kinda thing.
u cant get to enjoy e interaction with frens as u travel.
n tats y i dun ride on sundays.
1st most imptant thing is, when u wanna pillion someone n they r not allowed or are afraid to pillion.
oh well, wateva...
i still need my bike.
might prove handy in times to come.
who knows, i might hav to travel to e other end of singapore frequently?
anw, the bak kut teh wasnt tat bad.
it tasted quite medicinal!
but its still nice!
haha
den i went to e goldenmile food center to dabao some chee kway for my sis aft departing.
i muz say, it was rather delicious too!
YUM YUM!
den today,
sang on stage twice.
one for YPF n 1 for church choir.
Anni lunch was gd too!
mainly e usual.
but this yr there was some tofu with minced meat.
but there wasnt any noodles...
hmm, im still thinking of whether i shd join e carolling band again this yr.
but i've got Church Choir ongoing at e same time as e Carolling practice!
n it starts next sun.
YES, its nxt sun!
anw, im glad too tat Esther n Kat are joining us back in choir nxt week!
n since i tot there wasnt BS today, i went home to sleep n jus negate my sleep debt if any.
den i was thinking like, shd i wake up in time to go Sunset?
well, i did.
but in e end i gave up.
i was too lazy to go.
yeah, e flesh indeed is weak.
den i ate chicken rice for dinner tonight.
havent been eating e usual mixed rice since ive been eating out almost everyday for e past week!
den something unimaginable n totally unapt happened today.
shant comment much.
but yeah.
it was totally uncalled for.
oh well, im not surprised.
anw, i missed out e 1st part of "The Island"!
managed to catch e rest of it.
wat a nice n controversial movie.
yeah n i FINALLY got down to attempt to touch up on my assignment which is due this fri.
im like halfway into it by now.
super mafun.
its like u hav to keep regurgitating ur main algorithm over n over, e only diff is e way u present it.
i did e main thing for all 5 ques.
jus need to interprete them in pseudocode n in english.
zzz.
mafun...
anw, i had a great time of sharing with Esther today.
well, it's called mutual exhortation and encouragement.
Blessed Birthday, Esther!
(even though u're not gonna see this at all)
its close to 430am now...
n im still awake.
tats bad.
wonder if i'll hav enough time this dec!
with camps n practice sessions n all,
n tat competition at e end of e yr.
SCARY!!!!
n yeah, im keeping my bbq small,
i dun quite like e idea of getting a huge grp of frens coz i might totally neglect them this way if i go frm grp to grp.
n i noe wat it feels like when e 'host' is not attending to u.
n i dun want tat to happen to my frens.
EVER.
yep, initially i wanted a separate celeb for diff grps of frens.
e BEST way!
but i guess Man proposes, God disposes.
so yeah!
hope u guys can come!
coz i wanna share my joy!
hopefully it'll spur us on esp for those who r gonna hav exams soon!
main pt is, i jus want ppl ard me to b happy.
=]
so with tat,
i shall end this post n bring this hope to my dreams!
take care lots ppl!

n it starts next sun.
YES, its nxt sun!
anw, im glad too tat Esther n Kat are joining us back in choir nxt week!
n since i tot there wasnt BS today, i went home to sleep n jus negate my sleep debt if any.

but in e end i gave up.
i was too lazy to go.
yeah, e flesh indeed is weak.
den i ate chicken rice for dinner tonight.
havent been eating e usual mixed rice since ive been eating out almost everyday for e past week!
den something unimaginable n totally unapt happened today.
shant comment much.
but yeah.
it was totally uncalled for.
oh well, im not surprised.
anw, i missed out e 1st part of "The Island"!
managed to catch e rest of it.
wat a nice n controversial movie.
yeah n i FINALLY got down to attempt to touch up on my assignment which is due this fri.
im like halfway into it by now.
super mafun.
its like u hav to keep regurgitating ur main algorithm over n over, e only diff is e way u present it.
i did e main thing for all 5 ques.
jus need to interprete them in pseudocode n in english.
zzz.
mafun...
anw, i had a great time of sharing with Esther today.

n i noe wat it feels like when e 'host' is not attending to u.
n i dun want tat to happen to my frens.

yep, initially i wanted a separate celeb for diff grps of frens.

Starry Starry Night
I gazed upon the heavens
from this humble little city,
there it shone,
ravishing in all its beauty.
celestial beings prancing round and about,
some forming a line,
some stood without.
cleansing our morbid hearts,
as we marvel at its sight.
Winking from e edges
a new smile thru the night.
have been 'getting' gigs n GIGS of songs these few days!
i think now my music folder is ard 10gb or more!
i need more den an 8gb iPod touch to store it!
oh well,
if u include all e vids...
nah i think i'll jus stop here.
i still prefer instrumental songs most of the time!
compared to eng, jap, kor and chi!
i think i seldom listen to chinese songs already.
(except for e remnant few in my hp)
i really think i need an mp3 player...
one big enough to store songs.
n to listen on those crazily-insanely long bus rides.
(well, i could listen to them while riding i suppose?)
anw,
to those whose exams r coming,
all e best in studying hard.
or even trying to concentrate!
im so gonna need my instrumental music + liang teh combi while programming.
well, compared to e successful geeks of old,
i think its much safer den coke + acid jazz.
or mayb i shd switch to kickapoo + trance or something to get a better kick out of it.
(n kickapoo has caffeine!)
n no COFFEE for me!
guess perhaps i DO need caffeine patches (like those nicotine patches for smokers) to keep me going on n on n on n on...
Where art thou Eden, O garden of rest?

"Thank You, Lord" - Dan Burgess
And I thank You Lord
For the trials that come my way
In that way I can grow each day
As I let You lead
And I thank You Lord
For the patience those trials bring
In that process of growing
I can learn to care
(Chorus)
But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of all I do
For when those trials come
My human nature shouts the things to do
And God's soft prompting
Can be easily ignored
But I thank You Lord
With each trial I feel inside
That You're there to help lead and guide
Me away from wrong
For You promised, Lord
That with every testing
That Your way of escaping's
Easier to bear
Yes, I thank You Lord
For the victory that growing brings
In surrender of everything
Life is so worthwhile
And I thank You Lord
That when everything's put in place
Out in front I can see Your face
And it's there You belong
Seems like i've been hearing this song for e past few days...
Its almost stuck in my head now...
oh well.
feng emoing now,
sch in a few hrs time,
plus dance today.
n possibly tml going clarke quay for lunch with DSA competitors.
den mayb aft tat going meet up with my West Team CCTW (Close Combat Training Wing).
depends.
oh well,
trials come n go,
opportunities to share too...
Wat only me learnt from FCM ytd was to remem my 1st love for Christ.
tat inner rejoicing with joy unspeakable.
nth else could compare.
n i thank e LORD for trials.
in a way.
yeah.
haha.

literally stone n daydream with brief moments of concussing!
GROSS!
totally disgusting lah!!!
cant believe it.
anw, finally handed up e Effective Comm Assignment 2 with 999words.
(wanted to make it 1000 words!!! coz its e name of a song i like)
n oso e logbook is being checked already.
although its messy but err..
yeah at least it's done.
wats left.
reflection paper and Java assignment 1.
oh n tat econs quiz which i cant remem when.
n very soon gonna b Effective Comm Assignment 3 which involves a speech.
ok lah.
im quite used to being on stage le.
speaking to a few hundred at once.
i guess tat stage fright has been gotten rid of since sec sch.
lets see...
singing in front of hundreds in JC.
being scrutinized in tkd competitions,
being in front of hundreds n making a fool of oneself in e Army.
choir in front of e congregation.
cant remem wats more...
anw,
some part of my bike broke away!
n now i cant change gears!
its like stuck at 3rd gear even before i entered e expressway to get home.
totally scary arr!!!
i could not go more den 70km/h.
ok theoretically i could, but my engine was roaring away like a ferocious lion already!
so i was like 60+km/h on an expressway.
totally dangerous at night!
[see, sam! no bikes!!!!]
even right now, its still stuck at 3rd gear as i speak!
zzz.
wonder how im gonna get to sch tml.
n NO!
*shakes index finger*
(ok this seems familiar)
no public transport, ie. buses for me!!!
mayb its God's lesson to me to b humble,
to ride defensively n not testing e capabilities of my bike.
(yeah, recently ive been 'cutting' corners n revving like no one's business. im TAT crazy now)
(cant believe im having this kinda irritating attitude now. im more n more like my bro! n tats scary. im wondering wats tat change in me?)
anw,
i've lost quite alot over e past few weeks.
lost many things dear to me.
like my keychain attached to my keys...
its been there since i was in p sch.
somehow it jus disappeared without me knowing.
hopefully i can replace it...
but some things jus cant b replaced.
ARGH!

oh oh n oso my watch erm 'buckle'?
tat small rectangular piece supposedly encompassing the strap.
it broke off.
n now my watch is left dangling.
zzzz.

yet another 2am post
yeah,
im always blogging ard this time.
tats so weird.
its always 2am!
its like, even when im not at home,
e.g. tat time i stayed over at roy's house,
when everybody was asleep,
i crept out of bed,
switched on my laptop n started blogging.
n YES, u guessed it!
its was definitely 2am as well!
so weird, it's become a habit.
or is it???
hmm,
which reminds me of e purposes of this blog.
1stly to remind me of all e memories i had,
be it happy or sad.
coz yeah, im forgetful,
n i jus dun want my memories to disappear.
next is to prevent myself from bottling up too much n jus implode on the inside.
rant all i want,
shout all i want,
its my place of literary escapism.
(much like how e punching bag in tkd worked)
n lastly is to hope to share my joys and sadness with everyone ard,
n most imptantly,
to show how miracles were worked out in my life.
and all e nitty gritty stuff tats ever happened to me.
seems quite fascinating to me to see how i grew to furnish this habit of blogging.
anw,
back to my day.
another long meeting, this time its 4 hours,
to 'try' to finish up the entire essay.
however, we were only finished with e intro and two-thirds of the body.
left with e last 1third and the conclusion and oso the 1st ever line of the essay (which seemed the hardest to me)
n really thank God tat since there were only 3 tasks, n 4 group members,
i was omitted from doing anything!!!
*thankful thankful*
n like coz i had my dance revision jus aft e meeting, i wun hav time to get down to do it as well.
n like since we were kinda lazy to meet in sch.
we decided to meet online!!!
hahahaha!
so yeah, once again im really thankful.
(although when they were finding e 'right' person to edit the entire essay, all of them turned their heads to me without hesitation!!!)
(mah engrish ish not shay veri powderfool ash weill mah)
phew phew
at least now we're doing e editing together.
n ya,
MY 1ST EVER BLISTER FROM DANCE!!!!
n its as big as err....
a 10 cent coin!
its been so long since i had a blister.
feels so fun to prick out e 'juice'!
haha but not fun when u're having it...
yeah, was jiving during e early part of the dance session.
super tiring!
n like with e music at such a fast pace,
its really hard to get ur body to keep up with e tempo!!!
n like, u hav to raise ur knees high like e sediah position.
makes me feel so army again!
but yeah,
as always,
tiring but fun!!!
danced with someone new today.
name's Jani.
n its like,
im always dancing with someone who looks like a yr2 (coz she looks pro) but is only yr 1!
n like i only meet them when KX is not ard.
same goes for Daphnanie, tat tall tall (scary) girl.
i always mistake them for yr 2s.
tats e funny thing.
haha.
yeah anyway,
today i learnt much more den dance.
it's oso bout chemistry with ur partner.
its about leading and following.
it's about those minute details in body language, in those eyes.
all these factorise a gd dance with a partner.
e tension between e holds and e grasping of hands part is still abit hard to comprehend.
gotta learn to apply 'pressure' and not to anticipate.
oh oh!
i almost forgot,
Jani taught me how to switch e hand position while e girls do e turn.
shucks, i forgot to impart it.
nvm, shall do so on tues!
KX, if u see this, PLS REMIND ME K!
yeah den aft dance, i met up with feng for supper at bukit timah again!
our fav hangout place for supper!
n today he copied me!
ate nasi pattaya too!
one of my fav!
den he drank some weird drink called Neslo which is Nescafe + Milo.
which reminds me, i still haven't tasted Horlo yet!
n i drank my Bandung.
it still remains in e top ranks of my fav drinks!!!
WHEE!!!
yeah den we chatted til 12plus am before returning home.
n like tml, or in 6 hours time, i'm gonna go his house again to configure some network stuff to b able to play Vegas with him!
=]
oh oh,
n ya, i noe u r jealous tat i nvr ask u out for supper, BRAder.
but den, u see, my bike has only space for 1 passenger.
n besides, since ur dad doesnt allow, neither will i!
hmm unless i get a sidecar or something.
seems possible.
hmmm...
yeah,
once again,
im really thankful i dun need to prepare anything for tml's proj.
n coz of tat, i hav time to prepare for tml's discussion.
yeah, it's my turn to chair e discussion group tml.
hope all turns well according to His Will!
ok. now its 3am...
come hither, O hour of rest!!!
im always blogging ard this time.
tats so weird.
its always 2am!
its like, even when im not at home,
e.g. tat time i stayed over at roy's house,
when everybody was asleep,
i crept out of bed,
switched on my laptop n started blogging.
n YES, u guessed it!
its was definitely 2am as well!
so weird, it's become a habit.
or is it???
hmm,
which reminds me of e purposes of this blog.
1stly to remind me of all e memories i had,
be it happy or sad.
coz yeah, im forgetful,
n i jus dun want my memories to disappear.
next is to prevent myself from bottling up too much n jus implode on the inside.
rant all i want,
shout all i want,
its my place of literary escapism.
(much like how e punching bag in tkd worked)
n lastly is to hope to share my joys and sadness with everyone ard,
n most imptantly,
to show how miracles were worked out in my life.
and all e nitty gritty stuff tats ever happened to me.
seems quite fascinating to me to see how i grew to furnish this habit of blogging.
anw,
back to my day.
another long meeting, this time its 4 hours,
to 'try' to finish up the entire essay.
however, we were only finished with e intro and two-thirds of the body.
left with e last 1third and the conclusion and oso the 1st ever line of the essay (which seemed the hardest to me)
n really thank God tat since there were only 3 tasks, n 4 group members,
i was omitted from doing anything!!!
*thankful thankful*
n like coz i had my dance revision jus aft e meeting, i wun hav time to get down to do it as well.
n like since we were kinda lazy to meet in sch.
we decided to meet online!!!
hahahaha!
so yeah, once again im really thankful.
(although when they were finding e 'right' person to edit the entire essay, all of them turned their heads to me without hesitation!!!)
(mah engrish ish not shay veri powderfool ash weill mah)
phew phew
at least now we're doing e editing together.
n ya,
MY 1ST EVER BLISTER FROM DANCE!!!!
n its as big as err....
a 10 cent coin!
its been so long since i had a blister.
feels so fun to prick out e 'juice'!
haha but not fun when u're having it...
yeah, was jiving during e early part of the dance session.
super tiring!
n like with e music at such a fast pace,
its really hard to get ur body to keep up with e tempo!!!
n like, u hav to raise ur knees high like e sediah position.
makes me feel so army again!
but yeah,
as always,
tiring but fun!!!

YAYNESS!!!
haven't eaten this for a long time!
bbq steamboat!
thanks sf n qy!
had much fun with it
lotsa sausages and hotdogs!
n oso e MUG rootbeer float with choc chip ice cream!!!
yeah e ice cream was from China but i dun care!
hmmm, today was crazy,
had a project meeting on Effective Comm for like 6 hours!
(ok mayb jus 5 aft minusing off e makaning n breaks)
im like totally braindead when i got to Sf's house.
n i cant even figure out how using 4 numbers:
1, 3, 4 and 6 can add up to 24.
using only +, -, x, /
no powers or square-root [if not its super easy].
my mind was totally reluctant to even think.
not forgetting tat Serene asked me some chimo question about law.
it doesnt even look like a proper sentence to me.
its like 1 long complex sentence devoid of punctuations!!!
how to understand?!
n they keep repeating the word...
err...
wats e word again?
'offer'?
crappy.
1 long sentence can have tat same word more den thrice.
anw,
im quite thankful for my proj meeting today.
coz like everyone did diff things(wasnt planned this way) n we could collate all e stuff together to answer all e parts of e requirements.
oh and also,
i initially tot we wouldnt hit e word limit of 1000 but den i was wrong.
like so totally wrong.
jus my 1st impressions of e article itself took me like 1152 words?
n like we have to further analyse using some weird PAC-SSS system.
gawrsh,
guess i haven't written a 1000 word essay for a long time.
i think e 1st and last time was in sec 1 or 2.
yeah i was tat crazy.
teacher made me write a 500 word essay to explain why i didnt pass up my homework.
i think i overshot 1000 words instead.
i think close to 1200 words?
yeah i was tat rebellious last time.
n so CRAZY.
i remem getting stuck aft sch coz we stayed behind aft 7 n e gates were locked!!!
lolz.
n there were only 3 ppl in e class..
hmmmz, i wonder wat we were up to...
hiak hiak hiak
anw,
im gonna have another meeting tml aftnoon b4 dancing again!!!
oh man...
1st my brain will rot from all that thinking.
den my legs will rot from all that dancing.
but NO,
i'm not complaining!!!
im still in tat thankful thankful mood!
yeah, but anw,
its 5am now!
gtg sleep, and fast!

a jog of memories
phew,
came back from a very very very long jog.
from my house to rail mall den to bukit timah fire station, den to e bukit batok nature park, den to e old fort factory n back to bukit panjang.
this would b under e railway.
the mini tunnel tat looks like it teleported itself from e ages of WW2.
along e way, i came across many places with lots of memories...
ran thru / pass places where i remembered lotsa fond stuff.
hmmm, this would b e place Pei Xuan lives.
i still remem going to her house many times jus to wait for her to go sch together.
n oso when going to tat MacRitchie Reservoir in our Scouts n Guides uniform.
den when i boarded e cab at 5plus am,
i still remem e taxi driver asking me if i was Mr Johnson...
i guess e operator heard my name wrongly when i booked for e cab e night b4.
hahaha.
'Johnson'... sounds so angmoh.
den i passed by places where i used to jog at like tat eerie park beside e expressway.
really scary at night!
at tat time i was like running for my life!!!
its so eerie tat u can hear e wind rustling e leaves, e crickets chirping all ard,
n tat chilling wind beating all about u.
not forgetting e cliche dim lights and dark settings.
oh n oso tat route beside e coffeeshop n lrt station where i remembered i was debating over e phrase 'over colourful'.
cant believe i was actually 'exercising' my brain while exercising my legs as well.
den we grabbed some supper aft reaching bukit panjang plaza.
e 24hrs Mac was closed.
can u believe it?!
no choice, had to resort to e gd old faithful instant noodles.
i remem in sec sch we used to eat e Nissin cup noodles + Jolly Shandy at least twice a week!
with Wilson and Weihong (was Feng and Jianqi inside too? cant remem).
i only remembered e 3 'W's !!!
yeah den we stationed at eclosed closing starbucks at 1230am for awhile b4 proceeding to some staircase, for fear of being chased away.
hmm i think something similar happened aft my prom night too rite?
was it?
went to swissotel to change,
den went for supper aft seeing feng off.
den ate instant noodles again at some tables n chairs outside a closed restaurant.
wah tats like a really long time ago lah!
Hey BRAder, n i still remem tat time u were sooooo peer-pressured to go Double-O with ur classmates rite?
so like r u regretting now?
hahaha.
sry arr,
i dissuaded u instead.
but den,
we had a GREAT time of sharing and chatting til e early wee hours beside e Singapore river til 7plus am ya?
those were e crazy times...
haiz.
memories,
what a funny little thing...
anw, i came across my bro's ex's blog(well he has many ex's)
n she jus went to e funeral of Sun Yanzi's singing coach.
"What I took home tonight was really what Pst Ming said that sent tears welling up in my eyes, " At the end of the day, what is most important in life is relationships. So hug those people that you can hug now and spend time with those you can spend time with now... Tell them how much you love them. Tell them you want to have more coffees with them... ". It's no wonder that the bible says, 'Better to spend your time at funerals than at parties, after all, everyone dies - so the living should take this to heart. Sorrow is better than laughter, for sadness has a refining influence on us. A wise person thinks a lot about death, while a fool thinks only about having a good time.' (Ecc 7:2-4 NLT)"
but wat struck me was e last sentence.
"A wise person thinks a lot about death"
well, i used to always think alot bout death...
so tat made me... wiser?
i noe of frens who always think bout death.
*cough cough* AHEM! *clears throat*
n oso frens who attempted death.
but failed.
who ask her to go take panadols instead of sleeping pills...
GAWRSH.
tats a really weird statement...
til i looked up e KJV version.
Ecclesiastes 7:2-4 (King James Version)
this totally meant a diff meaning.
if not, i think i'll really think of death every moment to make myself wiser!!!
scary scary.
imagine me on my bike. -thinking of death-
WHOOPS~
den u'll see like minced meat on e roads.
hahahaa.
anw,
im looking forward to e steamboat at SF's house tml night!
hope there's nice food!!!
yummy!!!!
