Because SPA and Floorball don’t mix.

Took our Physics and Chemistry SPAs the other day. Actually took Chem SPA today. and Physics SPA last friday. Both went quite well in the end! :D. I guess we practiced well! haha. It gets really easy once u get the hang of it, which we should have after so many practices :P.

We played floorball in PE the other day. It was damn fun. Me, Adam, Mervin, Edwin, Arvind, Clayton formed a team. We were on a winning streak! haha never lost once! Renewed my love for floorball!! LOL DYING TO PLAY IT AGAIN!!!! hmm maybe i should join floorball in JC. damn why now don’t have sia :(.

So CTs are over. Slack now. Back to normal study life tomorrow. sigh. It never ends!!! HAHAHAHA. Might have screwed up English, although Combined humanities went rather well. Maths, hoping for an A2 or possible A1. haha. Chinese…PASS CAN LER!

Hi there, it's been awhile.

It's been awhile Really no time to post and stuff. With soccer and studies and just studying again. 2nd day of common tests tomorrow. All studied up already. So yeah some free time now to post. Been reading Remember Me? By Sophie Kinsella.Really good book so far. Quite interesting. Lent The White Tiger to Jerald but he lost it. hahaha. Yesterday woke up and went to school to study with Jerald and Arvind for SS and History. Then Adam came at about 4. Me and Jerald went to play basketball for awhile after that. hehe. So that was all i think.

Last few weeks pass by really fast. Haiz... really spending too much time on facebook. Sigh. Been learning a few songs on the guitar, metro station's shake it and a few others.

Can i post another day? haha. Want to catch slumdog millionaire soon!

The White Tiger

I just finished reading the White Tiger by Aravind Adiga. All in all a very intriguing book about politics and corruption and how decency can still be found in a corrupt world. It shows you that religion doesn't create virtue and money can't solve every problem. the book tackles the issues of india's caste system and "the rooster coop" refering to how people find it difficult to break out from their caste and do something different for a change.

the story is told through the eyes of a servand Balram and his letters to the Prime Minister of China. Very interesting way of conveying the whole message. haha.

I highly recommend this book. Really really good book. Need someone to discuss it with. Jerald? hahaha.

Now That's Creativity

Will Someone Catch That Bug?

Friday:
There has been a flu bug going around lately. Well at least in my class that is. The bug's been going around and i think me and Yau just got it. I think it got worse when we played the match against St. Gabs in the rain. And yeah....28 mins in they postponed it. AGAIN! After the match took a shower at Andre's house. Then went for physics tuition. although I'm thinking of quiting. don't really find it useful or helpful. Went home after that, played left 4 dead for awhile then went to sleep.

Saturday:
Woke up in the morning felt a bit feverishy. But had to go to school for Chem. Took our stoich test which i thought went quite well. Then after that went to my primary school teacher's house for a little CNY gathering. Taught me for 3 years, pri 4 to pri 6. me and Yau were like just stoning cause i think we both caught the flu bug. Played kung fu chaos and Halo 2 on her xbox, ate pizza and sushi and just talked about Secondary school life, making fun of the little things haha. Went home around 6pm while a few of them stayed for dinner. I had to go home for a reunion dinner so yeah.

Sunday:
Woke up with a high fever. Went to eat bak kut teh still haha. Then went to see the doctor. Had a 39 deg fever. It died down abit already. I think it's gone. Have to go school tomorrow cause Andre, Ngai Thai, Zul and I missed a Chem SPA practice which we needed to take.

I hope there's someone with a butterfly net looking for that bug. DIE!!! I hope i didn't pass it to anyone.

Youtube Time

Just saw a trailer to this movie. Found it quite funny. Okay lah slapstick funny but still funny!
I wonder when it comes out in Singapore




haha yesterday Adam showed me this Youtube video of this guy playing Apologize on the Piano. Really really good. But also bad in a sense that it wasn't original haha.

How Anti-Climatic

So we were like so pumped up for the match. This mental coach guy came down to psych us up. Guess what? 10 sec into the match some lightning risk alert crap sounded. The games are all played at Balestier Hill btw. So yah. the ref didn't want to continue so we waited and waited for like 45mins for the overcast to subside but it didnt. Although there was no sign of lightning or thunder or rain in that period. then after that the ref postponed the match. zzz. Oh and thanks Nin! for showing up and supporting us! hahaha

Next game on friday against St. Gabs. Hope it goes well! they are one of the tougher opponents. So yeah.

Just Leave Those Doubts Behind You

tomorrow will be our first game of the season. haha. damn nervous!!! Playing against Clementi Woods i think. Anyways have to miss Chinese class (not that i enjoy chinese class but the thought of missing lessons scares me abit. O'lvls this year leh!) and we have to miss one of our chem spa practices! (NOOOOOOO! but this one she will have to give us a replacement).

Have another game on friday! Then 3 more games in the next 2 weeks! then hopefully we qualify for the next round. haha.

Added a little thingy at the side bar of books i plan to read or am reading now! hahaha. just for fun! hehehe.

"It's just your doubt that binds you, just drop those thoughts behind you, now."

Love this quote. It can be simplified into "just do it". which always applies to everything in life. And mostly for me, in the academic sense. So yeah. Don't doubt yourself, cause it holds you back. Just drop those thoughts behind you and move forward!

Sim Lim Square is FILLED with Theiving and Cunning Dealers

I was at Sim Lim Square on Sunday after tuition to go check out how much my Samsung is worth cause i really want to get rid of it. Turns out all the people there are thieving and cunning. The guy offered me 250 for it. And he wanted my phone now. then i said ok...can i bring it back tomorrow? i need to transfer some stuff from the memory. Then he sais if you bring it back tomorrow i can only offer you 200. And i was like -_-. And he was like "yah phone price eveeday dop one" and i was like nvm thnx anyways.

The next shop i went to was even better. The whole time the guy was like...sure! we'll give you 300 for it! i was like omg thats great! and after checking through some phones they were also selling...(brand new ones) so i can make a trade in perhaps? then i told the guy...erm what if i dont make the trade. and he was like "oh we only make trade ins. we don't give cash" and i was like -_-.

All the time i have been at Sim Lim square, be it buying a psp or whatever. The dealers there are really out there to get ur money and leave. I cant take it. And its usually the very "ah beng" dealers.

There's one shop that really stands out and i always go there to get my games, mouse, mouse pads, xbox peripherals and stuff. Techdrome or something like that. located on the 5th floor. The guy there is really friendly. There was once, i bought orange box, he gave me some freebies along with it! hahaha. So i always go back there now!

Anyways, on the way out i saw this poster on drink driving. I thought it was kinda cool and creative.

Anyways that was Sunday.

Now for Saturday...hmmm.

Went to Chem class in the morning. Then after chem all of us went to "bai nian" Mr. Ng's house. hahah. Played games there and ater vegetarian ba kua. and it tasted interstingly weird. haha. Spent 2-3 hours there. After that around 10 people went to play Left4Dead at Lan but i had tuition! NOOOO!Then popped by Jerald's house to bai hahaha. Collected ang pow there. Then played his guitar awhile. then left went with jerald and arvind to borders cuz Jerald desperately wanted me to go. a reason i still don't know why. haha. So went lor. then after that went chem tuition gah. hahaha. After chem tuition went back home. Then immediately went to my late grandma's house for some "reunion" CNY thing. My grandma passed away in Dec only so yah. Went there met up with relatives, collected ang pows woots. Then went home. haha

Friday now. hmm. Met up with the IA guys. Had to help the new batch of IAs which was kinda boring haha. Then had dinner with them at Pastamania. We were walking through Citylink after that and there was actual human poo on the floor. like chunks of them on the floor stretching from the Shokudo to way past Adidas. yuck!

So now thursday.

Went to study with adam after school cause got half day. So we went to buy mervin's present first while a group of them went futsal. I had a sorethroat so i didnt feel like it. Went to esplanade Library to study. the tables were all taken up. So there was this cafe with comfortable seeting and it was kinda empty. We decided to pay3 bucks for the freaking coke so we could sit there! hahahaha. Then Adam's friend Gillian came to study too. Although became abit distracting after awhile but managed to revise stoichiometry. haha. Then my mum picked me up! yays!

What A Beautiful Mess This Is

"If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours. If it does not come back, it was never meant to be."

When The Wind Blows

"Everyday I wait for that day to come and it doesn't matter how long it takes because the wait would be so worth it"

Operation Ang Pow Cut Short! :(

Met up with adam and mervin at Plaza Sing. saw this gigantic line formed from istana all the way to the mrt station. i was like OMG! haha. So we went to Swensons ordered some Mega Burger. Then mervin got a Birthday Firehouse for desert! haha. Me and Adam sang him a birthday song quite loudly until he was like embarrased haha. then after that some people in the restaurant started clapping. which was what we wanted! haha. You should have seen his face!! Then met up with matt and chin yan and went to watch Love Matters which was NC16. And we soon found out why. The whole show was like freaking SEX RELATED! like sperms and whores and gigolos. hahahaha. Went to play pool for around an hour then left home. haha.

MervMan Birthday Boy

Woalalala

Merv, Adam, Zong(me!), Matt

新年快乐！ 万事如意！

Ok so the 1st day was alright. Actually it hasn't ended yet. Took a pit stop back at home after a round of visiting uncles' houses.

1st went to my Dad's oldest brother's house and met up with a few relatives. one of whom also studies in St. Andrew's. Was talking to him about being in the Adam's Class and how its all just a freaking name. Lol. Told me they were going for an OCIP trip too. haha. Then told her stuff about Mrs. Low, cause she teaches him Physics too haha. Left after about 2 hours there.

Then headed to my grand aunt's house where we met up with more of my cousins and just talked and talked and more relatives came.

This is the best part!! After that we went to my other uncle's house near Sim Lim Square there.
Saw the omfbeautiful solar eclipse. haha i don't really believe in all the superstition and stuff. I was waiting and waiting. Then got a few calls from Mervin and Adam talking and waiting for it to come. And when Mervin gave the heads up, haha i ran out of the house down the corridor and looked out the parapet and stared at the sun. Although i know i shldnt have without wearing sunglasses. zzz. It was so beautiful. I didn't grab any pics of it. But Lovely took one and posted in on her blog. It's the same sun and the same eclipse so i'm gonna post it. haha. At around 5.30 the moon covered 3/4 of the sun.



Then now i'm at home. taking a rest before heading off to my aunt's place for sumptious dinner i hope! :D

Ok i'll post more photos later! haha.

Jason Mraz Countdown: 1

Who Doesn't Love The Pinoy Accent?

My tuition teacher introduced this video to me. It's a stand up comedy. Rex Navarrete is a American born Filipino and did this stand up comedy about mostly things related to pinoy stuffs.

Anyways he is pretending to interview a Filipino guy about his company SBC Packers. Enjoy!





You can go Youtube him on YouTube for more videos!

Just for fun, i'll be posting a list of my favourite Jason Mraz songs or videos up till the 5th of March where he'll be playing in Singapore. Starting tomorrow! all for fun. hmmm hahaha.

TODAY!
lol. In the morning, went to school for chem class. was quite alright seeing that i managed to understand what she was saying. Then 8 of us, Ben, Aaron, Bart, Arvind, Mervin, Solo and Daryl. Then walked back to school with solo and arvind and mervin. Solo's dad picked him up. Me and arvind decided to go to Borders to get a few books. Well i wanted to get The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga. It's supposed to be a very good book. I have yet to read it. haha. Arvind bought 5 People You Meet In Heaven.

We used all of the Vouchers he got during the prize presentation to pay for them! hehehe. Then after that went for chem tuition. zzz.

That was today.

The Piano Know Something I Don't Know

"you cant make someone love you, just be someone who can be loved, the rest is up to the person to realise your worth"

No further questions.

Smile. Smile. Smile :D

Came across this video on Stanley Ho's blog. This video actually made me smile. We all need something like that in life. Just watch the video. You'll get what i mean.

Sec 1 Orientation | Shoes, Bags, I'm not Vain. hehehe.

Sec 1 Orientation was last friday. All the hard work and effort put into planning it would culminate that day. I just wished things went the way it was supposed to. I guess sometimes it just isn't like that.

A disappointment it was. It's our last year and i thought that it would have been something special to leave something behind for the sec 1s. We had our fun in our sec 1 camp, and in a way, we wanted to give it back to them.

What happened you ask. Everything went smoothly until the Night Games. The sec 1s just came back from the kiwi cup and headed for dinner in the canteen. I had been in charge of planning what i felt would have been the highlight of the camp as it had been for us too. The Nightwalk.
Planned long and hard for this. It went well for 1A and when 1B was about to be dispatched in fours, all the games had to be called off. Because some untrained maniac was running around the school at night hurting the sec 1s. I can't say much about it, but that guy was also a student, although he had nothing to do with the camp of our AFGM. Basically he screwed it up for us.

To me i just wanted to give something back to the school before we left. This was one of them. And it just went to shits. They didnt have much fun, let's admit it. It was crappy in a sense.

I guess sometimes things just don't go the way they are supposed to be. And that's how life works. Sometimes you gotta just keep on going no matter what happens and just press on. and again, i think that's how life is. haha.

As part of the CNY shopping thingy. haha me and adam went to bishan to get new school bags. Then the Zinc shop there was like freaking small so we went down to Bugis cuz i thought the shop there was cheaper. haha. We ended up buying the same bag but different design on it. haha.

Then part 2 of the CNY stuff? haha. today, after soccer training, took a shower at school and went to Vivo with Jerald and Clayton to go buy shoes for the coming CNY. hahaha. They waited for me until my training ended. wah so nice arh! hahaha. Then mrted down to Vivo. (mrted! wahahahaha)
Walked around and sidetracked alot to look at other stuff. We spent like 1 hr + inside converse looking at the different colours. Then choosing for each other and taking pictures. gay shit! lol.
then i settled on a 1 high cut and 1 low cut pair. Clayton bought a green one and jerald bought a grey one. Not bad at all! haha.

I bought this one. Red colour actually. Don't know why it turned out orange on the camera.

And this pair of beige coloured highs.

Me, Jerald and Clayton's shoes! woalalala.

Clayton's Green Pair

Zzz. Tried to compose a song. for fun. Came up with a rought melody. simple 3 chords for the verse and 2 more chords for the bridge. roughly added lyrics but it was like temporary. Then the chorus havent think yet. hahahhahahaha.

Random Photo Roll!

I should be studying now. Really! Anyways, i always never upload the photos I take on my handphone. so here are some taken over the past year.

Mervin, went cycling that time with Adam, Mervin, Solo, and TZ and ZJ haha

My own small little domo. I know it isnt as big as yours JY! haha.

Today our english teacher made us spell the word floccinaucinihilipilification. the longest non technical word in the english dictionary, which means "the act of describing something as worthless, or making something to be worthless by deprecation" and yes, it's a noun. hehehe

One Way Forward?

SAJC Open House was gay. as in like crap! Well i guess might be because we went super late. But we met up with some friends. but either way it wasn't really meant for us, more for the sec 4s last year. So we should be there next year.

Sec 1 orientation camp. planning it is really really tiring and stressful!! ahh! haha. and homework still havent pile up yet. Still quite manageable. Soccer gonna take up alot of time in the next 2 months. Till start of mid march? i think thats when the season ends. then i am free to study and go mug like a dog.

I'm really afraid i cant manage my time come feb. Season starts on 2nd feb. 2 games a week, 2 trainings a week. If there's a game prolly have to pon class which is not good. should i continue? I don't know what to do.

really. this is sec 4. It's o levels year. It's one shot. I don't want to blow it. Or am i over reacting? I have no idea what to do.

Any ideas? I'd take all.
