hiya! i realised my blog's articles are getting longer and longer and more and more nonsensical!

Had been ps2ing in mark hse with friends recently... havent study! omg, guilt starting to strike in haha. Anyway, i was supposed to go Yum Cha this morning(8am!) with Mark, KS, Tony and Diana. Ta dah! i woke up late! Luckily, Mark called my home and got my father to wake me. It was tiring to wake up unnaturally :/ i had to pick myself up, get my clothes and bath, but while doing that, i realised my teeth hurts, i couldnt bite and it was aching(my braces was tightened ytd with some seperators put inbetween my teeth), ouch! Yea, so i told them i wouldnt be going for makan, and probably meet up with them after their meal. Yup, it became another ps2 day + pink panther movie, they didnt noe where to go i think, and decided to go mark's hse instead. We had dinner(teochew muah + beancurd, for the sake of... ME! :D) and i went to get a present for my friend whose bday is tml. Happy bday! after that, we went back to mark hse to watch a rented pink panther dvd and off to home we went!

*last week, i had a quarrel wif my mum, it was about something she have been doing for years now, and i just couldn't stand it sometimes. She'd put words into my mouth and achieve her aims regardless of me. This time, to interact with other people. I mean, isn't that injustice, it was like getting accused of something i did not do or say! And that should not be the way-.-" anyway, i did get irritated, but it really blew up the next day.

My father came back complaining that she did that again, well, not that he was really angry, but it triggered me to make some comments. Yes, i know some comments were not appeasing to the ears, but if you know it's your fault, then don come showing anger instead of apologizing! keeping quiet as though i am accusing u and raising ur voice when i did not even though it was your fault. It just got me more irritated to see that my mother is being immatured. Yes, i know i am the son and shouldn't be reprimanding you? But it has been years!*

*Your nick seems troubled these days, i would be happy to be ur listening ear if you want it! Stay cheerful, life's more than what we think it is, although i am looking for it too! We can find it together*

*You have tried your best for the oral! It may be difficult, but don't dwell on it! Your A won't be gone just due to the oral, work on other parts and it'll still be yours! :) The finishing line is just ahead!*

Lor Sor Entry, just an update on the week

Another sem over and i am off to my two weeks break before the last three exams. The academic schedule have been in my mind in the last few weeks, worrying about deadlines and tests, but it's all over now, i can now take afew days off, relax, and get back to work for the last three exams.

Monday, 7th aug, a short day in school, all the lessons are practically over, left some revisions and this day saw the last maths lecture. After the 2hrs revision, we went to play our pre-planned bball game with the other class, what a tiring day it was, we played for about 4hours, with 1 full match of 20mins per quarter. It was fun playing wif friends and against friends, although some hiups happened during the 2nd quarter, it was relatively a very fun day out. + we wanted to cut our hairs this day! but it was postponed though, those that wanted to cut felt too tired.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, this was how the match went about:
*Lor Sor Bball* Note! - Lor Sor really means Lor Sor. =D read at ur own risk! just don't bash me up

during the 1st quarter, everyone was much more active, running up and down, playing bball at a higher pace, it ended with us leading 9 points ahead.

2nd quarter, we lost the lead and both teams were even, 1 of my friend got frustrated, or even got angry (pure dumb actually -.-" i mean, why get angry when we are playing the game for fun, yea, although it's against the other class, we are all still friends anyway.), it started when we began to lose our lead, the other class got their act together and scored points after points to cut the gap while our team attempted shots but missed the cut, my friend felt that another was soloing and got frustrated, and went on a soloing spree himself. Quite a joke actually, i mean, why don he set an example since he hated it. Anyway, we ended the quarter losing 2 points

the 3rd quarter was better, we amended the mistakes we talked about during the break and got back our lead - 9 points

like all games, the climax happen during the ending moments, the other class cut the lead to just 1 point and every ball suddenly felt so crucial, everyone became hyperactive, they wanted to score and overtake us while we were afraid to lose the lead, to and fro, the score remained stagnant, the basket seems hard to score now, and it was until a break thru that we scored the important 2 points to lead by 3, and it's by me! :x anyway, they had a 3 pointer shot but missed and my friend scored another to assure our win~
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yea, that sums up the day, everyone got so tired and i went home with an injured heels, weird right :/ i stomped on it while breaking my run lol

Tuesday, National Day Eve!! and yet no half day!! so sad, how much i miss sec sch~
this day can be described as a c-programming day! we had to present our projects and study for it afterwards as the test was on thursday, we left arnd the evening and i joined my family for the fireworks festival. It was nice, nicer than last few years, we went to a spot with a nice sound system which makes the fireworks nice, i mean, it's the coordination of the mood of the music and the fireworks that make it nice right? But the music was kinda late though, it did not blend that well, but it was enjoyable nevertheless.

Wednesday, National Day, study... watch tv... makan... watch NDP... thats all. hey, NDP is getting "boringer and boringer", lets hope the change of location next year can bring a whole new appeal towards it.

Thursday, test! what a hard paper, one of the hardest i ever sat for in NYP, the past years papers were useless! it was mostly different! with chimer questions... longer questions... but watever, its good that it's over. I had my hair cut today, i wanted to cut it short and it really did become very short! like hmm... Yi Mu Hua Dao? Just that it isn't red.

Comments about my hair:

Mother "Aiyooooooooooooy! Ler Zuo Ni Ka Tao An Ne???"
"Aiyooooooooooooy! Why you cut until liddat???" translated
Father "o.0" yea, not much words, just a slight grin? :/
Bro "Ohh, you cut ur hair ah?!" with an evil laughter
Mark's Mother "I think you should keep those kind of F4 hairstyle!!!"

ok, i don really like my hair either, but i cant possibly lengthen it :/ just hopes it grows faster hahaha.

I also ton ed in seb hse that night, playing ps2 and drinking some vodka + rebina, relieved from exams? just for two weeks though.

friday, 11th, we went for the last thermofluid tutorial and went to watch movie, afterwhich i went to accompany my father to watch the fireworks, some friends came along too, having nothing much to do, what else is there in singapore to do!!! the fireworks display was nicer compared to tues, more variety, better combination, but alittle messy in colours. Congrats on your A2!

saturday, 12th, another fireworks day, it was the last day of the fireworks festival and much more people went!!! police blocked off the area and only left a small opening around the traffic lights, some people complained, but there wasn't much things the police could do, the cars have to pass too! but i am sure some people got injured, it was a small opening... + there was a stone just before the opening, and people got caught by it. we couldn't go to our usual position although we came alittle earlier than the last two, the fireworks was the best of the lot, the music timing was flawless, and the display matched it well, smoothing music was used that trigger the inner emotions that made us found it even more breathtaking to see the display. It was the best fireworks display i ever withness live.

Ok, i typed a whole lot of nonsense without thinking, sorry!

*I don know what you are thinking, maybe u hit another obstacle, but please get on with it slowly, i noe u are seeking something, but u have to take it step by step. Alcohol makes you dizzy, you know it, so go easy on it, i mean, do u really like the feeling of taking in alcohol in excess? or what did you want to prove? drink as u deem alright, for fun, for the taste*

Back On Track

Yea, i got over the exams thing with an email to the teacher, although i reckon it does not even help any bit. But life continues, doesn't it? And for that selfish issue, although i am frustrated and hated that, i shalln't dwell on it, they are opinions, and to have those thoughts, it just shows that i am selfish afterall, at least, able to give the slightest hint of it. Although i don really know it was becoz of what particular reason (maybe you could tell me if you know about my blog), i could only say sorry, if i didn't carry out what i am supposed to and disappoint you or you guys.

Anyway, my Marketing test is over, it was relatively easy being an elective module, and lets hope for the best, at least to gain some consolation over the other screwed up one? lolz... Next up, Device Interfacing and programming, cruel module.

The test was on Wednesday, and Dennis wanted to replace his mouse on that day, thus we went to sim lim. We had to wait for Sam as he'll be arriving later and decided to pop up to YST working place, to surprise her? Anyway, she had been bugging us to visit her haha... We hang around for awhile and eventually met up with Sam before going to Sim Lim and do some hunting, Dennis bought his razor mouse which comes with a free Battle Pad (Don't Look Down On This!!! Said The Store Owner lolz) and mark got his 512mb lappy ram. We had dinner in BK and that sums up the day.

Thursday, we wanted to play bball, but didn't really have enough people, one wanted to rest his mucles for sunday's surfing competition... another didn't want to play... another went sim lim to browse thru afew comps. So... it never materialised, we just went for the WS training and loiter around in school before going home. The WS training for actually just a briefing, to show how the processes work and so... It's not actually the trait i am interested to join, but after feeling that i did badly for the exams, maybe my options would become limited afterall. Bothersome to worry about the future eh?? I don actually like to do most of the jobs in the society lay out, i want to seek something i like. But can i? i doubt so, it's so rigid now.

Today, we had three lessons, maths and a double thermofluids tutorials. Being busy copying stuffs, the lessons went pass quite hastily and we got on to our bball, but i had to leave early, needed to apply for my guitar course, but some friends followed me as well, to watch a movie. No idea whether i should have applied for the course actually, i want the grades, but is quite reluctant to go slowly. Anyway, i applied and lets see how it goes... maybe i can try to take the test earlier afterall as what i have initially been told, before realising it may be a miscommunication afterall. Ohh ya, and the staff... dammit, do i look ill mannered or something, i spoke nicely and friendly, yet she gave me this frustrated look as though i am irritating her or something, but i am quite confident to say that she's the one who needs to buck up on her service, it can really turn anyone's day unpleasant.

Movie is up next, we bought the tickets and had to waste some time till 5, a budget meal in BK? The timing was bad, dinner time was coming and we decided to have a proper dinner after skipping lunch... so... we actually bought a meal and shared it(mushroom swiss burger meal), mushroom swiss burger was cut into two pieces... but it wasn't shared by two fellows!!! The reason was that the staff had no clue how to cut it again! it's a small burger mind you! and we crazy lads wanted to share it, a bite each? haha, anyway, we had our way and came up with a master plan to split it... Lucky me! i won the last portion lol. Yum.

After that insane meal-cum-snack, we had some more time and went to carrefour for a tour... Mark caught his eyes on a soft toy lol, a fluffy dog, kinda big anyway, and yea, he bought it after the movie, but he let out some words after being bombarded with some questions on why he wanted it :/ it can be given to a gf too! hey, so we are hoping it can disappear from his house ASAP yea? good luck mate, we'll be having spot checks anyway, Dog = no gf, No Dog = gf, haha.

We bought nuts and drinks and went to the movie, Long Hu Men, it's about these brothers from Long Hu Men who got splited up for some reasons not revealed. The elder one was adopted by this guy who is half good half bad, doing bad stuffs for the mastermind(bad egg), but yet yarns for retirement. Anyway, the elder one felt ashamed to return to Long Hu Men as it was more of a rightuous clan although he wanted to. The story is quite bad actually... "Dullish" for most parts... no climax... nothing worth wowing over. But the fighting can be some consolation though, the graphics are quite nice.

Finally, the movie came to a close and we went LJS for dinner, Combo 1! After that, we just went to paradiz and took a look at the internals of the new cartay building before going home.

Anyway, wish that you can sort out your troubled mind about your partner yea? I am sure your grandma will hear your words and feel ur love too! last by not least, all the best for your days in aussie! - Ben

Work hard on ur studies! Prelims and o's! i am sure you have the qualities to do well. Chicken Essense, Bird Nest, Shark Fin, Lobster, Durian, take anything you need to energize you up yea? But of coz, at your own expense! :D - Jane
