the battle

the long awaited battle began. equipped with only a rifle, i felt my way through the dark forest cautiously. enemies were everywhere. just that i cant seem to see them. bangbangbangbangbang... the shooting started. without hesitation, i fired several shots too, hoping to hit any of the enemies. accidentally, i tripped over something and fell. suffered bruises and cuts. no worries. i'm still going strong. i need to be more focused. hopefully everyone is doing fine too. now, everything has quietened down. day 1 is over. the battle will continue tomorrow...

halloween

i read lecture notes the whole day. while reading, i was holding my badminton racket and swinging it around. used it to hit my head. it helps in blood circulation. try it! hahaha. just kidding. i took out the guitar and strum strum here, strum strum there. watched youtube and learnt how to play kiss me by sixpence none than richer. yeah. played basketball (magic shoot) for just a while. went to the toilet just now and noticed something weird about this funny broom with plastic bristles. it's standing on its own, without leaning against anything! lol. you might have seen it before. but since it was my 1st time seeing it, i was totally amused. haha. decided to take it out and took a picture of it. lol. though it's 1st nov (0032) now. but still, happy halloween! since the date of this post is 31st oct. hahaha.

magic shoot!

standing on its own. woo.

sembawang park

lejun called me at 6.40am. i called bernard at 6.50am. haha. went jogging with the two of them. ran all the way to sembawang park. walked around the park and sat near the jetty. i had been wanting to go to the park to walk walk, see see and relax before alevel. and finally i did it this morning. with the 兄弟s. yeah. we talked about ns stuff. seems like all the guys are quite excited about going for BMT in palau tekong. the two of them will be enlisted on 11dec. it's like two or three weeks after alevel. mine is in april. how am i going to survive the long holiday without the two of them man. haiya. 为什么这样?

stayed around in the park for a while and walked back to sembawang to have breakfast. on our way, bernard was saying that it felt as if alevel was over then. haha. i was wondering what will life be like after the exam. will i be feeling lost? will i be wasting my time doing nothing? or will i be... hopefully after alevel i can plan out what i want to do during this long break. right now i should be thinking about alevel. it's just a few more days to the 1st paper. haha.

ai piah cia eh yia. let's 拼到底!

meepok

i just had meepok for supper. it tasted great. because i cooked it myself. hahaha. not the kind of meepok in coffeeshop or hawker centre, but the instant noodles kind. cooking a simple meal for yourself seems fun. maybe i can go learn cooking after alevel. haha. eh. meepoh or meepok?

myojo instant noodles - mee poh dry
5 X 85g
fairprice: $2.10

haha. i'm so bored right now. and maths is driving me crazy. arghhh!

to BASIC MILITARY TRAINING CENTRE SCHOOL 1

sudden urge to blog

i have this sudden urge to blog. woke up this morning at 6.15am when lejun called me. we went for morning run. surprisingly, this time i ran. not jog. probably because it was a much shorter distance. about 2km or so. drank teh at the canteen opposite yishun sapphire. reached home at about 8am. took a cold shower without switching on the heater. woo. shiok! i just spent about one hour reading the newspapers. there are several interesting articles which caught my attention. here are some of those which i had read:

Plight of Chinese peasants could worsen (pg A25)
What if toture can be justified? (pg A28)
Engulfed in the flames of malice (pg A32)
Saving the Coral Triangle (pg c4) [we often associate environment issues with common topics such as deforestation, carbon emissions and global warming. it's good to know about marine conservation as well.]
British pre-schoolers to get sex education (pg c20)
Playing sport for glory... or money? (pg c33) [something for us to think about]
SATURDAY [there are several pages on the public housing in singapore. from the 60s until the future]

hahaha. so much information. do get a copy of the newspapers and start reading now!

have been trying to follow the timetable which i came up with. i managed to wake up at 7am on thurs and fri. wanted to cycle to sembawang park. but it was raining. so instead of cycling, i ended up sleeping. hehe. honestly speaking, there are things which i failed to complete. overall, the feeling of following or trying to stick to the timetable and completing things you have planned to do is totally great. it feels like you are living life to the fullest. haha. i shall continue to plan out what i want to do. it's really easy. just write them down on a piece of paper. attach double sided tape to it. peel off the white layer. stick the paper to your body. tadaa! you will stick to the timetable and it will also stick to you. i'm sure you will then achieve what you had planned! yeah! HAHAHAHA.

follow the timetable

i had decided what i want to do today and wrote it down on a piece of paper. hopefully i'll stick to the timetable. but i must first pray that it wont rain in the morning and i can wake up at 7. hahaha.

浪花一朵朵

i love this song. i feel so relaxed whenever i listen to it. and i will sing along too. haha. so many lalala. sing along man. you'll feel great too! ;)

浪花一朵朵

啦啦啦啦 啦啦啦啦 啦啦啦啦啦啦
啦啦啦啦 啦啦啦啦 啦啦啦啦啦啦

我要你陪着我
看着那海龟水中游
慢慢地爬在沙滩上
数着浪花一朵朵

你不要害怕
你不会寂寞
我会一直陪在你的左右
让你乐悠悠

日子一天一天过
我们会慢慢长大
我不管你懂不懂我在唱什么
我知道有一天
你一定会爱上我
因为我觉得我真的很不错

时光匆匆匆匆流走
也也也不会回
美女变成老太婆
哎哟那那那个时候
我我我我也也
已经是个糟老头

啦啦 啦啦啦啦啦啦 啦啦啦啦啦啦
我们一起手牵手
啦啦 啦啦啦啦啦啦 啦啦啦啦啦啦
数着浪花一朵朵

10/10/2008. a day which i'll never forget. we had farewell assembly in the morning. watched some performance and prize presentation. aj indian dance was totally awesome! when you watch them dance, you will also feel like dancing too. hahaha. went back to home room (414) after the performance for some admin stuff. received gifts from lejun, angelin and jasmine. so nice of them man. thank you so much. ohh. and also from ajc. thanks! haha. stayed back in school for lunch with the class. i ate char kway teow. it was delicious. played volleyball with 10/07 for the last time. bathed and left school in the afternoon.

all of us went shopping at fairprice extra. we bought meat, mushroom, fishball, vegetable and many other things because we are having steamboat at mr chua's house. hehe. reached sengkang in the late afternoon if not wrong. we played cards and mahjong. looked at mr chua's photograpghs. ate kfc. ate steamboat. drank beer. chatted with one another. watched tv. played truth or dare. took photo. mr chua's kids are so cute. they are very polite too. time passes fast. soon it was 9+ and some left early. the last group of us left at around 11pm after playing truth or dare. bernard, lejun and me decided to send angelin back to her hostel as it was very late. took train with jazzy and angelin. on our way, we met crazy people. two indians almost started fighting. we alighted at dhoby ghaut. the two also alighted. one of them kept punching himself. he even turned around to show lejun. walked angelin back to her hostel before the three of us took cab home.

i couldnt sleep last night. something seemed to have changed. what should i do? 怎么办?

ice kachang

went to pizzahut for dinner on sat. only 6 people turned up. weeyang, meigui, jeremy, wilson, xinghua and me. as usual, weeyang was the one entertaining us. he really can talk a lot. haha. weeyang is just like superman. there's only one word to describe him. PRO. after eating at pizzzahut, we went to the hawker centre to eat dessert. we ordered a $4 ice kachang. it's huge. 6 people sharing one ice kachang. weeyang accompanied me home after that. haha. someone please organise another gathering after alevel and hopefully more people will turn up.

havent been feeling well lately. skipped bio timed practice yesterday. supposed to go see doctor 1st, but the clinic is open only after 2pm. so i just went home to sleep. went back to the clinic at night. there were so many people. waited for 1h plus. doctor gave me a mc. haha. was feeling better this morning and so i went to school. anyway it's the last week of school already. must treasure the remaining few days of school. hopefully there will be a class outing on fri after farewell assembly. a lunch together would be good. soon i'll be on my own. i wonder if i can survive. haha.

my angmoh neighbour wants to learn mahjong. he said he's willing to pay someone to coach him. part time job after Alevel? hehehe.

lies

mr ang is finally back from reservist training. he went through a passage talking about lies. i love his lessons man. the lessons set me thinking about things which i have never thought about, make me realise and understand the way of life. and also how things work. they also allow me to see things from a totally different perspective. seems like i have gained a lot from him. was reading this article: the truth about lying. the following paragraph is just my random thoughts which may sound nonsensical. they may not be true. haha.

children are always happy because they imagine, they pretend and they tell lies to avoid the truth? i dont think adults can achieve the same effect. probably because we know that it is wrong to tell lies. hence by putting up a pretence or telling lies, it may make us feel worse rather than happier. ok. enough of crap. i also dont know what i'm writing. haha. let's move on.

went out late yesterday night at 11plus pm. biaoge just booked out at around that time. father was going to fetch him from keat hong camp. and so i just tagged along. it's the 1st time i'm going to the keat hong camp area. the night is so peaceful. there arent many cars on the road. the best thing is that love97.2 fm was playing some very nice songs. i sang along. hahaha. father drove past the zoo as we were along mandai road. i want to go zoo! i cant even remember when the last time i went there was. keat hong camp is situated near the chaochukang area at some ulu site. qianhu fish farm is somewhere there too. on the way back to yishun, biaoge was teling us about some interesting incidents that took place this week in the camp. that's something special about this trip. i felt the same way as about 7 years ago when i was in primary 6. the feeling is just so special that i dont even know how to describe. somemore that particular song was played at the same time. was it an coincidence? haha.

went to chongpang for supper. the prata was not bad. but the teh tarik isnt that nice. haha. reached home at about 1am. went to bed with biao's psp. played for a while before i slept.

someday

let's go back to 1999.

Somday - Sugar Ray

Someday
when my life has passed me by
I lay around and wonder why
you were always there for me

One way
in the eyes of a passer-by
I look around for another try
and fade away

Just close your eyes and I'll take you there
This place is warm without a care
We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave as you reach for me

Some say
better things will come our way
No matter what they try to say
you were always there for me

Someway
when the sun begins to shine
I hear a song from another time
and fade away
and fade away

Just close your eyes and I'll take you there
This place is warm without a care
We'll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave as you reach for me

Someone says you tried too long
Someone says we got it all
Someone says we tried too long
Is there a place where i belong

So far, so long
so far away
So far, so wrong
so far away

Someday
when my life has passed me by
I'll lay around and wonder why
you were always there for me

One way
in the eyes of a passer-by
I'll look around for another try
and fade away

And fade away
and fade away
and fade away
...

1st october

september has ended. it's 1st october 2008. there's no school today. not because of children's day. but because today is hari raya puasa. haha. today is my mother's birthday too. we had an early celebration on sunday when my brother was around. happy birthday mama.

i had been feeling very tired these few days although i slept a lot. haha. had this sudden urge to play basketball yesterday. so i went out to play from 4plus to 6 after reaching home. slacked through the night. watched hot shot ep10 and slept early. haha. however, i still woke up quite late this morning. looked through maths lect notes in the afternoon. i'm going eat dinner now. shall practise bio and chem paper 1 tonight. yeah.
