ive got abit of time to update now just before i get started on studying geogo. plate tectonics...today was a pretty so-so day...kinda boring actually...had the usual free periods and stuff..the science ppl were having their bio practs. and it was tris' and bert's first bio pract. exam...both of them found it alrite...it think they identified the unknown as amylase?haha it sounds familiar but im not too sure exactly wat it is...we didnt have econs tutorial today...instead we had ms leow's human geog class! i think human geog is a tad more fun than econs sometimes...but i like econs coz you can kinda apply it in everyday life...got back...had a good nap...i think im lacking sleep! oh well..im downloading more songs into my creative zen...its kinda like the ipod just that its cheaper...my one stores like 20g worth of memory...and ive only put in at most 350 songs? haha but its real neat to be able to play any song that i like when i feel like it...especially on the way home or while im studying! it's ms leow's birthday tml....everyone remember yah? alrite its double pe tml! feel like i need to excercise and get rid of some energy...and its also the last full day of the last week of school for the term! but we've got a hectic schedule tml...its like...Sat-Geog,Mon-Econs,lit,tues-lit,Wed-lit,fri-geog,sat-geog...and not to forget the two geogo. tests on the first week of the new term...haha its almost crazy...but it cant be helped!

had a geog society meeting...took like 1 1/2 hours...im in charge of doing the website and the newsletter for the geog soc....aye i gotta refresh my memory on all the html and stuff...oh yeah did something kinda ffunky today....
Sean and Joel dared me to suck up Mami powder...you noe the BBQ one? yeah suck it up through my nose with a straw...and they were going to pay me $5 each if i did it...so i obliged! whoa it really burns up there on the first sniff...after that it wasnt too bad but i started tearing up like mad....but i managed to do it and after that i had to suck water up thru my nose to get rid of the powder....it was disturbing me for the next 2 periods...and my snot was still brown in color smelling like mami everytime i blew my nose...but im alive and well now...haha i think it was worth the trouble...so i bought myself a teh ping and a green tea drink to celebrate! im going to do more dares...but maybe not the same one...i think i might have killed my nose and given my whole body some kinda shock...
*poof*

aye...its been ages since ive had time to blog...but ill go back a few days...
Friday
PLayed tennis with bert,sean,tris and joel...yeah the usual bunch...kamil was there too but he didnt play tennis...it was kinda hot so we ended up not playing very long...then we had lunch at the sports com...the jap food is really not bad for 3.50...went back...got some work done and then took a nap...The real shit came when we went out for dinner and all later on...We went to Esteller...some indo fastfood-ish place at far east...its pretty darn good and they have this drink called the happy soda...haha its kinda like bandung with soda....fizzy and sweeeet....then we went to look for andrew's farewell present...after running around between Taka and Wisma we ended up buying him a nice XL swatch watch which we all found pretty nice...after that..we went to Coffee club xpress to decorate the card and all...i had a nice rambutan ice thing...after that we went to Karaoke! I think its our new fave hangout place...it was super damn fun as usual and we got two very nice guests to join us...haha they can sing! which kinda saved our offtuneness...haha but it was lots of fun...gotta do it soon...maybe for Tris' or my bd we'll do it again!
Got back at ard 2-3? and the rest of the guys were watching American Pie...i was too tired...and too worried abt suffering a hangover so i tried to get some sleep which i did and woke up again @ 5.15 to get to the airport in time for Andrew's goodbye...It was especially sad to see a friend of i dunno how many years(since Pri school) leave...but i was glad for him and he's going to Dallas,texas....but im really going to miss the big guy!
Studied the rest of the weekend away...albeit a little unproductive but at least i could sit down and try to get some work done...i was feeling kinda sick...but im much better now...Mum and Dad have said they'll get me a MP3 player for my birthday...im trying to figure out which one to get....Help PPL!...

2003-08-06T07:28:00.000-07:00

had PT today...kinda led it with Charles...i think we did good for a first time pt...and i think now we're really working our bodies...Andrew made our stamina better...but now we're making ourselves stronger...bicep curls, leg presses leg curls...we're on our way...i think we worked ourselves out but didnt tire out ourselves at the same time...which is a good thing..gotta keep it going!
*poof*

2003-08-01T07:17:00.000-07:00

oh damn the week's finally over....just a quick one...i've been made sailing vice capt for the guys...i'm pretty pleased about it! Chia i owe you a drink rite? Charles got capt...Pei Yu's girls capt and Charlene's girl's vice...the guys who were kicked out have been let back in and i think its good for them to get their second chance...
The thing that doesnt excite me is that this move to include the second intake ppl will create a competition within our sailing cca...and we dont need it. I dont want separate camps...i dont want selfishness...i want us to be good team players...we will fight together...no matter who's representing ACJC...i hope the guys who get a second chance take this opportunity with both hands and fight for a place...
But i cant control all this..they've gotta do it...God has to help us...I dont think the team's facing a new problem now...i just want us to be as close as we were with the J2s...i think its really important for us.
*poof*

2003-07-30T06:08:00.000-07:00

aye...haven't blogged in a while...so i thot it'd just blog...pw's due tml for Ms Netty's check...i hope our file passes the check...althoughi dont feel super confident about the whole thing...
Had sailing today...i think i get along with Pei Yu much better now! so i'm pretty pleased lar...at least she doesnt have to yell at me all the time! my sailing's also improving...can do that keeling thing quite well now..even jiao nian was saying "dui, hao!" and not his usual "ta ma de!"...haha so thats something new! sailing comp. on sat and sun...after that there's no training for about until the end of the promos...that'll be good...can focus on doin well for the promos...
*poof*
p.s Anyone has the 2nd book to Harry Potter? i just started reading harry potter and i've just finished the sorceror's stone...so whoever has one please tag me yah?

2003-07-20T06:22:00.000-07:00

Todays...sunday...did all the usual stuff today...woke up...went to church...had lunch with mum's side of the family coz it was pohpoh's birthday...we went to some chinese buffet thing at some dunnowhere restaurant...the food wasnt too good...as in it wasnt good chinese food...and it took soooo long to come...
The sermon today was pretty interesting...about how different seeds in different soils grew and how we should be good soil so that we can grow strongly spiritually...and i think it was meaningful and i was happy that i could learn something from the sermon..sometimes sermon can get really boring or longwinded that you just dont get the punch line...but this one was good...short and precise...
I've almost decided that ill stop either blogging or change my content...because i realised that sometimes i dont want to end up whining online about this and that...and also because i think that i shouldnt bother telling anyone else what happens everyday to me...maybe ill pop in occassionally to type down a thought...but i wont be saying something like oh today school really sucked or like the chronological history of my day's schedule...i think it wont help if i felt crap and then wallowed in self pity online...it'd probably make me feel worse and make other people worry unneccesarily...so there'll be a change from now on....
*poof*

2003-07-17T04:07:00.000-07:00

its been such a long time since i've blogged...lots of stuff has happened since....had my oral on Monday....which turned out pretty alright altho i may have gotten the topic slightly wrong...but i think i managed to speak pretty fluently...anyways...on tuesday there was the official opening for the barker road campus and i was asked to do duty over there...it was pretty nostalgic in a sense...doing all that duty in a hot,stuffy blazer...trying to act polite and all to the teachers and visitors...the sad thing about the opening was that no prefect was asked to 'look after' the student's council from acj...so i tried to play host to them...but i think it was a horrible embarassment on the barker prefect's part...ohh well...
Thursday was shit day la...was in a darn irritable mood...sorry to anyone whom felt i was like super dao or hostible or just so darn stone...i was abit stressed out for no particular reason...besides the fact that i hadnt done Ms Netty's work yet and that i hadnt completed my GP package...after the GP test...i felt alot better...not so screwy but tired...on the way home i almost got myself killed...coz i thot that the traffic light was red...so i almost walked halfway when i realized...and good thing a car saw me wondering onto the road abt 10-20 metres ahead and swerved to the right...i was in a daze i think...just listening to the music...i need my sleep..maybe thats the problem....
Things that have been bothering me is the kind of studying env. that i have in class...i think tutorials and all that are pretty fine...but sometimes i just cant focus very well in some lectures and classes...sometimes its just too noisy...i try to shut out the noise but i dont absorb the stuff as well....i think i got a little more pressure from AA1 than im getting from AA3...dont get me wrong...AA3 is a fantastic bunch, more lively, a real hip and fantastic bunch...but sometimes i'd like the class to be slightly more quiet...like AA1 used to be in the 1st 3 mths...but we cant have everything...so i'm tryin to work out something so that i can focus and have fun at the same time...
Results have all come out...i got a D for geog and econs...c for lit and a b3 for GP...i was kinda dissapointed with my d for geog...i think it should be higher up in the b-c region...but i answered one 13 mark question wrongly and left a 5 mark question undone coz i couldnt finish in time...but at least i've managed to pass all my subjects...the strangest thing of all is that i passed my GP pretty alrite with 33/50...i was pretty pleasantly suprised coz i've failed all my comprehensions that i've had so far...maybe all the remedials that Mdm Sophia Ng has been giving has been pretty fruitful after all...
Parents are back so i wont have to go to school on my own anymore! i had to wake up @ 6 this morning and i accidentally took the early bus to school so i ended up there @ 6.50...its pretty darn quiet at that time...
*poof*

2003-07-12T07:42:00.000-07:00

Went to school today for listening...aye i got the ans for q1-5 and q6-10 all exactly the same...d-c-c-a-a...d-c-c-a-a...haha hope that is correct? we got there @ 8.30...but the stupid thing only started @ 9.30? i think they could have let us come a little later at ard 9...anyways...after the listening i tried to look for teachers...but i walked to the back door of the staffroom and it was locked and so i didnt bother about walking back to the front and wait for a teacher so i just left....on the way out...i met 'beckham' and her twin(joy) as well as justin eng...Chias. and Joy ended up following me all the way to holland v and was trash talking all the way there...met Dee and Joel over there and we took the taxi to NSRCC...got things sorted out pretty quickly and took a nice slow walk across to NSC...Dee knows like ALL kinds of plants and trees and i felt like i was sooo oblivious to nature around me...so i decided ill try to appreciate plants...and trees more...we finally got to nSC>..and it started raining on the way out...luckily there was this real nice lady who stopped to let us get on for a ride to the nearest bus stop...people like her really make you smile sometimes...got to taka and had a nice lunch...okonomiyaki with tacopachi and durian gluttonous rice and a 'goreng pisang'...aye i was full by then! got home took a nap and went to spaggedies for dinner! had a fantastic cannelonni and got back home and im typing on the com...how fast time flies

2003-07-12T07:20:00.000-07:00

The whole week's gone...so much emotion and stuff has been goin on...its been a rollercoaster week for me.but i've learnt much...how things are at the sailing nationals...how bloody irritating the sun can get after 5 days...and how much i'll miss the j2s...
I woke up yesterday(friday) morning because of the bad dream...not exactly a nightmare...dennis rodman(a basketball player) died and i was at his wake and i was like crying and everyone around was too...and when i woke up...i just realized how much i'll miss the J2s...its a real...strange kinda dream to have...but at least i realized it just in time...to appreciate their sailing prescence before its too late...so i quickly wrote each of them a small short note!
ayee quite abit of homework left to do:
1) GP reading package
2) GP book review
3) Geog Project
4) PW stuff
5) GP resource file
6) get a haircut!

*poof*

2003-07-09T06:32:00.000-07:00

So...after all's been said and done...the acjc sailing team for boys...have come in 5th place for the Nationals...i dunno whether to feel alrite...or shitty...personally i sailed a bad race...all of them in fact...everything i learnt and did at training was equals to zero...i tried soo hard, i mean i never skipped any of our sea trainings or physicals but in the end it comes to nothing...the good thing abt this race is that none of the j1 sailors came in last...and we're all 6mth old sailors...our team's made up of 3/4 j1s...of that...only charles has sailed before...and im pretty sure most of the other sailors have had more experience than any of us...so...i dunno...even capt. is a relative newbie since he only joined sailing halfway thru last year...its all over now...and wat we've gotta do is cheer the sailing girls on! i really hope and pray that they can get a top3 position....
Academically i'm doin alrite so far...61/100 for lit...and the only other thing i got was 21/25 for my econs mcq...aye i hope i do fine for my geog....i hope the hardwork pays off academically
i think pei yu hates my guts...she's always scolding me and just today she shouted at me to hold the front of rama's speed boat...i was walking down the beach on my way to help them get the stuff off the boat...i was wading towards them and the first thing i get is not,'how was your race?' but rather 'DAVID! hold onto the boat!'...and of course a dirty look free of charge...i cant take it any longer...i dont noe why she always only scolds me...and the thing is that she always thinks im playing ard...jking and all that...but...doesnt everyone joke?? anyways i think its really stupid and wat a waste of time....but i really hope that she'd treat me with a little more respect...eventhough i may be a more crap sailor than her

Yesterday was a pretty fine day...didnt get alot of studying done but i went to was-ms Elaine Loh's wedding...we got there just when she was about to walk the isle...so typical of us to be late! She looked great and we're all happy that she's gotta a seemingly pretty fantastic guy....they had been together 6 years before getting married...whoa not bad eh? I was kinda in awe and dreamy yesterday coz it was my first christian wedding that i've attended and you know, trying to imagine how i'd feel if that were me and wondering who'd be walking down that isle...then again...i may not even get married! Tim's dad was nice enough to get us a lift all the way back to bukit timah....
Today was a slightly more fruitful day in terms of studying...didnt go out at all to study...did human geog the whole day plus a overview of lit and later im goin to read some pointers for GP compres...i dont normally do well for it...failed 2 out of 2...but ill give it my best shot...aye i'm being plaqued with alot of ppl think that i'm going to do real well and all...but its not true...coz i dunno i take a while to process and all...so i maybe hardworking...but doin well is another thing...i know i shouldnt care abt wat ppl think but i hate it when ppl ask how i do then i say oh erm blah blah blah and they're like...huh? i thought you were studying damn hard?...yes i studied hard...but it doesnt mean anything...aye every year is the same story...study like mad dont get results...its time for something to change!!!but i suppose at least im sitting down to do work...

2003-06-27T09:04:00.000-07:00

today...was a SUPER productive day in terms of geography...must really thank Mr Lynn...Thanks alot sir! had consultation with him from 4.45 till 11! had consultation at starbucks before he treated us(joel,sean and me) to Swensons...of course we tried to not let him treat us but then he insisted...and he was very persistant...after that we went behind to Brekos where we had hot chocolate and continued studyin....oh mann everything is SOOO clear now...man...Mr Lynn's a fantastic teacher...he's the epitome of a dedicated teacher! he wasnt like rushing to go home and all that kinda stuff...and the way he makes us visualize everything is just sooo clear....he's really an awesome teacher...he's the kinda person you feel sooo inspired by that you wanna become a teacher....THANKS ALOT MR LYNN!

Something this morning shocked me...i got up and got onto soccernet.com and read that Marc Vivien Foe had passed away while playing for Cameroon in the Confed. Cup...i was shocked...and sad...that guy was only 28...bright future and all...all his team mates and ex-team mates said he was a fantastic player...one who always made ppl happy and never had anything bad to say abt others...there's nothing better than having people respect and pay tribute to you...

The NBA draft was nothing super suprising...with Lebron @ first pick,followed by Darko, Carmelo and then Bosh....the rest were not as interesting coz ive not seen them play...but there's this chinese guy who got drafted...wonder how he'll do...

Everything's abit blurry now...tired and alot of geog fresh in my brain...ill end here...

Anywaysss...today was ultimate-waste-my-time day...got to sailing....NO winds...hung ard....messed ard...posed ard...stuff like that...did some washing of boats and cleaning and sail stuff but nothing ultra kool...charles busy peeling his foot skin...joel busy plucking shu fen's leg hair...andrew, pei yu and charlene talking sailing...roger teaching val cantonese and jon ong hanging ard with ben....li en sleeping...hell we seem so slack...but it would have been a totally picture if we had a proper agenda today...but we did put the new sail numbers on the new sails tho...saw some reall funky fins-outta-the-water this morning...dunno wat they were...doubt they were dolphins, or sharks as roger suggested...maybe they were whales...small asian whales...hasnt anyone heard of asian whales?? it kinda reminded me of loch ness...which i was quite interested in in sec 3...i still plan to go to scotland and take a look myself...anyways>>>went to school after that but i found out that GP class was switched to tml and thurs...so i ended up hanging ard reading regeneration..which is pretty interesting....much better than RBOC...well at least to me...i only started studying after dinner...but i was incredibly productive...and i was pleased with that...tml i've got to keep it up...and same for the rest of the week....but i dont expect very good results...my planning screwed everything up...all along i kept up with work then once we got to slopes...and production and costs for econs i started to blur out...slack abit...loose the focus...and that sucks...this was the exam i was suppose to show that i can keep up...maybe ive got the focus...but i dont understand...and for something like geog its all abt understanding...oh well ill give it a final push and see where i go...
*poof*

2003-06-22T08:54:00.000-07:00

Heya joses! ohhhk i'll add some previous aa1 photos in there when i get some shots to put up...ill be the camera to school one day yah? Joy you can kope some of those photos as long as you send me some of your atuographed pics! and tim...Joel took those shots...go feed his ego!

3 days ago...was friday! Went to sentosa...probably walked 2 km ard harbour front before stepping foot on the darn hot sentosa island...then the sailors walked to the bus stop thing where we took a green line bus to underwater world and then we saw the marvelous-burn-your-toes Siloso beach...played volleyball which was kinda fun...till ppl started getting tired...then we went swimming...which felt reallie good on a hot sunny day....then we did some tanning...lots of it actuallie....i sprayed some of roger's tanning oil like mad and i played survivor with charles to see who could last the longest in the sun....the end result was a bloody itchy chest! haha...dunno how that happened tho...we tried to play soccer but the sand in sentosa suckssss..its like hard sand....not like...softer if you noe wat im saying...Dee joined us mid way the tanning and she joined in for a while...then we all went to BK for lunch...and throughout the whole trip we started repeating the same joke over and over...this is how it works:
Person A: whoa...that was like how fun...
Person B:how fun?
A: if this is fun*small distance between the two index fingers* then it was like this fun *larger distance between fingers*
B: really?
A: no bluff you one...
B: really?
A: no actually i bluff you that i bluff you...
B: why?
A: For fun...
B: how fun?
and then the whole chain starts again...hahah dont kill yourself if you dont understand...ill re enact it the next time i see you upon request ya?
the sailing party later on was good...food was great! didnt drink much...just had a bacardi breezer to myself and some crap bandung vodka drink that val made...and some baileys....

The next day i decided to go to sail...most of the other guys who stayed over didnt go....Joel and Andrew followed me to the sailing place where Jiao Nian told us to do 10 push ups for being late...then we rigged up and sailed...training was so-so...but now all the J1 sailors have definately improved coz they all beat Mr Rama....thats a real good sign and im sure he was happy to see that too...after that i was back at home...attempting to study....did abit but not very fruitful

Today is Sunday...woke up for breakfast...then went to church and i was running a little late...when i got in..i bumped into Mr Ng(the barker road principal)...and he was along as his wife had gone overseas as i later discovered so i ended up sitting next to him...we caught up in between the announcements...Mr Ng's a fantastic principal...i was just honoured sitting next to him...he's such a fantastic man that even the 'roughed' up fellas in school...the worst of the worst kinda students all respected him...he's really personable and it was great having him as a principal for half of my pri school life and the whole of secondary school...sermon today was on who to abstain from alcohol and other things that may cloud our judgement and actions and be still in the presence of the Lord...so there and then i decided i was goin to see how long i will stay away from drinking something alcoholic...For lunch...we went to Seah Street Deli...food was good and i had a Chicken in a basket...such a coincidence that Jackie happened to be at a thai restaurant at purvis street just a street or two away....later on i went for Lisa's(my little cousin;s) birthday thing at Safra....had some bbq food and it wasnt too bad...altho i got home smelling like smoke...shucks i was supposed to sleep early!

Thot i'd blog in now since i', staring at the com...supposed to be studying tho....

Soo now the business plan is that Tim opens a hotel, i open the restaurant in his hotel and Joy is invited to sing in it...She wont be employed to sing in it coz i definately wont have the money to pay her....not the diva kinda price...unless of course she acts un-diva like and takes a pay cut...haha...and then on the side we'll do the 1100 excuses...whoa...you're right Joy...we are goin to be rich. =Þ

2 days ago...Sailing wasnt fantastic coz it was the stormy kinda weather...so we just rigged up and Jiao Nian got us in for a little session where he answered all the questions we had...most of the pro-er ppl had questions abt the right of way and all that...but i didnt...coz i normally dont get into that kinda situation...hahah...dont noe if thats a good thing or not...after sailing we went for lunch at the chicken rice place @ far east...was super darn hungry and the food was pretty cheap...3.30 for chicken rice and soup....after that we(me and joel) did abit of shopping with the sailing buds before goin over to lido...Joel by then had already bought himself a stussy shirt from sponge....Roger bought himself a shirt too...i think it was alphanumeric....for some reason they dont have etnies anymore and also i think the shirt quality's gone up...doesnt feel rough nylonish like last time...after meeting Sab,sean and joseph...we combed the whole of orchard....Sab got 3 bras...and something else which i forgot...Sean bought gatsby wax...and joseph got a bag....i got a messenger bag too for $thirty something....its a army cargo-ish coloured one...joel got the same with a diff colour....i couldnt get a polo that ive been wanting coz they didnt have my colour...i also saw a real usable nautica bag that i could use for sailing but it costs $79....i would have bnought it but i figured i could save on that...i think i've become much more conscious of my spending recently....

Yesterday was a good sailing day for me...kept up with those in front for majority of the races...managed to get a first place for one...was pretty pleased with that but i noe it could have just been a flash in the pan so im goin to work harder on it...got third for another race and was abt to get another first when me and roger kinda collided...hahah...he was sooo apologetic but i wasnt mad or anything...was just pleased that i was in the running for that position...by the time we were on our 3rd last race i was already pretty darn tired =Þ...i think we're all reallie picking up well...roger did well was either near val or myself and Daniel's real good for a first timer...i dont think he was ever last! and he didnt even noe how to do all the starts and all that...was real glad for him....Ben was a little rusty but i think he'll get the hang of it sooner or later..stef also sailed pretty darn well...joel got a good first for the last race...i think we're giving the J2s a run for their money....went straight back yesterday and i got to try dad's ice cream...he did vanilla, banana and coconut....his mix of vannila was good...altho i could taste that he used powedered milk and not fresh milk....banana was guey and i liked that but mum didnt....and coconut was fantastic not too sweet and was light at the same time...real good stuff...i'm real proud of my old man!

Big thanks to Joy and Timmie C. for the advice! heya tim...hope the whole council camp thing went well for ya! didnt turn out too bad rite? Yeah i'll submit some useful excuses...haha but i think it'll be tough to think of 101 of them...but it'll be fun if we could do 1100 of them and make them into a book like the 1100 vocab thing we use for GP...yeah then we have 5 excuses you can learn in a day...sounds swell...haha and abit spastic...

Today was a seriously damn stone day...it was good to go to church for the second week in a row...the sermon was a father's day kinda influneced one and the speaker kinda ended up talking abt how we should all forgive our fathers....it was like those longgg grudges....Dad never did anything that needed my forgiveness so i couldnt reallie relate to it...but i think it made me appreciate the fact that i've got a great dad...did breakfast for dad today actuallie...a simple cheese toast with soya milk...then for lunch we went to the la mian crystal jade at scotts...havent been there for a while...came straight back home and did work and read regeneration...pretty darn interesting...then i did the 1100 words thing...it's reallie fun actuallie...haha...then the cousins came over for tea and gong gong was here as well...it was supposed to be a father's day tea...

Gong Gong's a great dad too...he managed to get 7 of his kids into university and he's always smiling...quiet and jolly...altho i dont talk alot to him coz of my crappiness in cantonese..i reallie respect him...he learnt hokkien to woo my grandma...he stopped smoking once he had kids...and he takes all my grandma's nagging in his stride...wat a man...

Dad's quite similar...he's patient...he doesnt talk much but when he does it means something...he always supports me or my bros when we want to take up a sport or a hobby be it teddybear making like my older bro or skate boarding like my younger one...he allows mistakes..he doesnt demand good results from us...he just want us to put in the effort...he likes almost all sports...he can draw...wish i could too...

Two fantastic models to follow...hopefully i can be the two combined for my kids! but it's a little too early to talk abt all this...Happy Father's Day!

First of all...gotta thank Chia for the advice...thanks alot girl! I'll keep that in mind and try to fix up something with madam...yeah maybe all along i just kinda got my priority abit off...think i was tooo caught up with trying to do well in sailing...

Today was one hell of a boring day...we didnt go to KL in the end coz Ian had to report back at camp on Monday morning...so wasted coz i couldnt go for the sailing race either...and i heard the winds were soft...kinda the way i like it....oh well....i managed to get some work done and i suppose its good to have a free week end for once...but its just soo damn boring and it kinda reminds me abt last year when i just was a vice head and all i did was prefect stuff and stone...how no life was that...haha...but prefect life was stressful and tough....i dont wanna go thru it again...

Went to forgot-whatsisname hotel for the japanese buffet...was pretty good...it was supposed to be a b-early father's day dinner and a dinner to celebrate Ian's completion of his seargent course..ate lots of the usual sashimi...tried swordfish and its not too bad...nice texture actuallie....had tempura...and soba...ramen...sushi...those grilled little fishes with lots of roe in them...and yakitori...then we went to town to walk ard and stuff....finally managed to buy Dee's birthday present...got a mogu flower...and then we got some mags for dad for father's day...i reallie think i should have put in a little more effort....but i always forget or i'm low on dough but its no excuse and i'm reallie a dissapointment in that sense...Dad's definately not the kind who'll take this in account but it feels quite horrible that i dont plan much for father's day....aye i promise to do a good father's day thing for him next year!

2003-06-13T00:58:00.000-07:00

Just got back from btp....played pool with joel,shawn,josh and abel....in the end me, joel and abel played cut-throat on one table which they re-named the game "with abel" for some reason....anyways i played pretty fine and most important that it was fun! Abel was playing below his standard, i kept hitting the ball wrongly...apparently something to do with the cue not being even throughout....

I'm this close to giving up on GP....for some reason i keep failing my essays and my compres...and its not like i write out of point or anything...the thing is that i dunno why i'm failing! And then if i tell madam that i cant attend one remedial class coz of sailing, she goes on abt how i'm not doing well and all...thing is i reallie wanna be there for remedial...just that im kinda being pulled by my committment to sailing...strange that tho we are expected to tdo well in studies and cca and yet it sometimes just doesnt balance out! aye...got to see wats up with my bloody GP...

I've been thinking abt how stupid and childish some people can be sometimes...its almost ridiculous and totally laughable...the way they just assume something and then just go blasting off thinking they're so damn kool...so immature....a recent incident just made me think abt it....but it had nothing to do with me...it just reminds us never to assume and always think properly...so you'll never look like a jackass...

I'm doing up a website....probrably get it online soon and i'll post it up asap.

University of Pennsylvania
You were a hard-working wannabe cool kid, and now
you are at the Ivy Leage equivalent of a rich,
suburban high school, and all of the kids used
to be too hard-working to be cool, so now you
all pretend to be cool together. As long as
Daddy keeps sending you money and you keep that
coke habit in check, you're degree will mean
something someday, even if none of your classes
did.

Which Ivy League University is right for YOU?
brought to you by Quizilla

haha aye i was hoping maybe Havard or something...i think if i just kept putting all the im-smart answers i would i have gotten it...well maybe i just might end up @ Penn state...Dad said it was quite nice when he went for his ice cream short course thing earlier this year...talking abt ice cream....Dad's going to open his ice cream cake place @ serene centre in August...hope it kinda works out for him...itll be pretty fun whatever it is! Thing is that ice cream is abit of a luxury thing rite? but i dunno...maybe it isnt anymore....
Today's sailing was not fantastic....the first race was kinda bad....second one was too strong for me so i stoped when i completed the sausage and i didnt sail my last race coz joel's rudder was falling apart and so i thought ill just swap with him coz i couldnt reallie handle the winds...he said he couldnt either...but i figured with his larger size he'd still finish in a stronger position...in the end the winds ended up super light...oh well...i just gotta sail harder tml with the last 2 races...hope i come in alrite...but at least its just a trial run again...anyways i came back early...with gastric pains....derigged the boat then i had lunch with Delia at the restaurant next door....not fantastic...and a ice MILO cost me $3.20! i could have made like dunno how many cups of ice milo with that kinda price! alrite....im reallie so damn tired....

2003-06-09T02:06:00.000-07:00

not going to update yet but just wanna thank "friend of singa" for the kind reminder! And sorrie chia for the typo! I swear it was only a typo!

2003-06-06T07:29:00.000-07:00

Its been...a longg longg time again...

Yesterday was Arts' games day! Pretty darn fun i must say! Ultimate frisbee was kinda fun altho i kinda eventually ran out of energy to keep running all over the darn place...but it was fun! The street bandy ppl did super damn well...won all except one that they drew...i think the team was made out of more than 4 hockers...chia,jas,josh,yap,aidil to name a few...had this gu niang band tied to my hair and i even borrowed Val's skirt to mess ard with but i decided not to play frisbee with the skirt coz Ms Marhaini, Mr Lynn and Mrs Creffield were all ard and i didnt wanna risk being yelled at! Thanks alot to the class and AD4 for the funky time man!

It was also Ms Netty's birthday yest! We got her a cake from breadtalk....some greentea red bean cake...it was pretty good....re-Happy Birthday Madam!

Today was the day that Rama had to kick ppl out of sailing....it was really pissing and sad at the same time...i was real sorry for ppl like Ray who quite council to focus his energies on sailing and everyone else who devoted so much of their time only to be kicked out ...i also felt shit for Andrew coz he's the one that's got to bear the burden of explaining to ppl and stuff like that...there's alot of unhappiness...and I've been thinking of quiting sailing so that I could give up my place to someone else and then try for soccer in july...but i cant bear the fact that soccer training will be soo hectic and its not like ill definately get in in the first place...but the thot of quiting sailing is still somewhere in my mind...I feel so crap for sean, tris,chua,ray,jianwen,wesley,shanjin,li chen and debbie...its not right that they devoted so much time to be left out in the cold like this....i dont even noe wat they can do now....Their CV for uni is in jepoardy and i think it was wrong for their future and their bargaining power at a Uni to be determined by such a drastic act....my heart is with them...i feel like shit...

There's also another thing thats been in my brain...its this stupid AC(i) vs AC(br) thing...well there ISNT any kinda hatred involved but some ppl are just sooo full of bitterness just because AC(I) seemed to had robbed us of our victory last year...but that wasnt their fault....it was the ref....maybe it wasnt even the ref....but the thing is...bloody life still goes on....now that we're in ACJC...no one gives two hoots abt the diff between AC(br)-AC(I)...but some ppl are still stuck in their own world...."Disloyal cowards; I suppose coming to ACJC to them means hacking off all their roots? Ungrateful traitors. I wrote a protest poem against all this pro-AC jingoism. You say ACJC is the fusion of both the Barker and Independent. Well, hold still, I just heard the wind running past you. Until you have occupied the spirit and soul of one of us, then you have no right to tell us where our loyalties lie"...Man...wats up with ppl these days...dont use big words and huge expressions on me...i mean...wat the F*** is your point? so you want a rift between AC(br) and AC(I)...well thats something that we could definately do without...go stay in your hole and talk to yourself...i'm dissapointed...coz i expected you to be better and greater than this...

Anyways Ms Elaine Loh had her last day at school....she's been a fine teacher...albeit a tad boring at times...=Þ..but i think she was pretty accepting to all our different thoughts over the interpretations of anything and she never said that something was definately one way or the other...its a pity that she's gotta leave...she's goin to SF! well just off it at least....her husband-to-be is studying at Berkley! lucky punk....it's a real nice uni...remember goin there a few years ago...Grand dad also went to berkley! i wanna go there or stanford! haha i noe its wishful thinking on my part...but Dream Big!
*poof*
p.s heya chia...finally updated...happy now ms funky-dunky-hair? *raises mic to Chia's mouth* haha...
heya Joses! altho you guys lost the 3/4 placing match, you soccer buds have been awesome man...eh you must give me your autographed jersey ya no.21?

2003-05-25T07:07:00.000-07:00

Today wasnt anything special....woke up early to get some work done..finish some geogo that is overdue...church was pretty normal...saw the usual people...heard something abt some methodist revival in the 19th century or something and maybe its the answer to Ms Netty's answer about why Crane uses quite alot of religious imagery in RBOC....pretty wierd...of all places to get a probable answer its at church...but then again...church's where we get quite alot of answers too...

Had lunch at Prima taste...think we go there at least 3 times a month...i'm almost sick of it...but everyone else seems to enjoy it every time...i must say its pretty affordable but i think i'd rather crystal jade or something if we have to eat local kinda food...tho crystal jade aint exactly local...got back...did work again...

Mikey's mid year exams are tommorrow...i think he's not prepared for his mid years....i hate to pressurize him and tell him how behind his schedule he is but i realy appreciate that he's at least a litttle more conscious of the importance of studying than he was before...I'm just worried he might wake up too late before he can do anything...i was lucky to get into Acjc...and i want him to be able to have the ability to have a choice between JC and poly....i want it so bad for him...but i cant force anything on him...he's got to discover it himself...all i can do is sit with him when he studies sometimes and help him out but i hate it that i cant be there to help all the time because of my own stuff...but once my mid terms are over i'll try to get him goin just in time for the end of the year exams and then hopefully he can jump up to the A band where he can get a better choice of subjects in Sec 3...

Ian just went back into the army...it's been 5 mths and he's doing fine...i think he's maturing more and i think the army's helping him be more tidy and organized...which is great...he's going to be a corporal in a few weeks time...glad he takes all this army stuff in his stride...altho he used to complain abit during BMT...he's got his kool game boy advance Sp thing to keep him company and all those japanese noodles and chips so i think he's living like a king in the army...

Tommorrow's going to be another long day...gotta sleep early...i think it helps to sleep early coz i feel i have more energy throughout the whole week...hopefully i wont get stuck on the tv or something...term exams start for the J2s as well...Good luck all ya J2s!
Oh yeah it's Val's birthday today!
Happy birthday sista!

*poof*

2003-05-23T06:16:00.000-07:00

aye....been exactly one and a half weeks since i last updated. The one and ony reason being the fact that i have been really really busy the past week or so...Nothing much has been going on...the seniors have stopped sailing for abt a week coz of their mid terms and so sailing training's abit quieter..esp. without val ard...haha...the winds were particularly awesome on Wednesday and it was a pretty good sailing day...

The soccer team managed to hold dunnowatJC for a 1-1 draw eventhough Joses seemed a little pessismistic abt getting a result with 3 of the first team defenders either injured or playing badminton for the school...in the end things turned out real well and i think the hard work that the soccer guys have been putting in is really showing...

Had 2 tests today...one being the geog test first thing in the morning...i planned to sleep ard 11.30 and get up ard 5.30 to study somemore but i ended up waking up @ 6.15...hahah good thing i decided to take a chance and choose what was most likely to come out...good thing i predicted bornhardt and that came out! the other question was the contrast between the weathering processes and product of limestone and granite areas....managed to bullshit through and i think i should do quite alright...was abit less confident abt my gp coz i hadnt read it as thoroughly as i did for the first one but i think i should do fine...perhaps even better than the first time round coz of my slightly better time management...

It was great to hang out with Sean,Bert,Tris and Joel after such a long and draining week...it's always nice to sit at the bleachers...stone and maybe look at the trackers...or the netballers do their stuff...and it's fantastic with the wind at your face and there's nothing to think of...Alot of ppl are starting to get lots of stress...i think I'm not reaching that level yet...which is a good thing...i'll try to stay and keep it that way...i think the geog test was great to make me catch up on wat i've been missing...the next thing i gotta work on is my Econs...I'm aiming for a B-average this term...dunno whether that's over ambitious but i gotta aim high...Ian didnt do well for his whole J1 year according to Mum...but i think i've started on the right step and i'll see where that takes me..the thing i gotta get right is the balance between Sailing, Academics and Church...the good thing is that my social life is now more in school...but sometimes i stay home instead of goin to church just to study...so I've gotta find a way to manage this whole situation...

Moving along...LeBron James is going to be the first pick in the draft and Cleveland holds the first pick...i think its going to be really exciting to see how he does in the NBA...The Pistons got the 2nd pick and they either get Carmelo or Darko....i think they're goin to be reallie awesome with one of them and Ben Wallace who's a stud...i was hoping Toronto will get the first pick...would be awesome to see Vinsanity and the Next-Big-Thing on the same side...on the golf side...Sorenson is playing her first PGA match with the men and shot one over...really fantastic...i think what she's doing for women's golf is fantastic but i dont think it should be seen as a battle of the sexes kinda thing....
*poof*

Would you look at her
as she looks at me.
She got me thinking about her constantly
but she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl
Yeah, I'm crazy for this girl.

ohhhh it was a tiring day today....that 2.4 was the most draining one i've had...maybe coz we havent been doin lots of running for training...or maybe coz i wasnt feeling too good...felt like shitting in my pants...but hell i still made it for a C and that sets me up for my GOLD for napha...not too bad eh? Lots of thanks to Joel! He came in just as i was abt to give up man...i dunno how the hell giving up entered my brain but i really felt like stopping on the last round till he came to pace me...brought water along but i wasnt dry...i was just mentally not there...wasnt focused...was just...dreaming...i'm glad he was there tho...got it over and done with...Thanks again Joel!
The rest of the day was pretty normal...boring boring stufff...double econs...double Gp and i reallie really hate CHINESE! its getting darn monotonous and i think i could actually learn my chinese without our chinese teacher...she's not bad or anything...but she doesnt really do much other than reading the Shou Ce and the TYS...aye i hope i can pass it at the end of the year so i wont have to go thru all this any more than 6 more months...Oh yeah took 2 polaroids at school today...first time i've actuallie used it since i got it like last year....it was pretty nice altho the exposure was abit off....
I've got bert's stay over at Crown Prince tml...dunno if ill end up going coz im a little hesistant to going to zouk again...dunno why but im finding it damn sian..but then again i always say this before i go and then when i go i end up staying till 3...so i suppose we'll see how it goes and take it from there...but im not feeling too good so im not too sure...
Oh the NBA's getting interesting...Carmelo,Tj Ford,Lebron have all declared for the draft...havent seen any of them on tv but the way they're being hawked by the media...i think they goin to be BIG....especially Lebron...the guy's going to be as huge as Jordan maybe more dominant that Shaq...but i think its goin to be something to watch...the Lakers may not get their ring coz the spurs are giving them a run for their money and the Nets are going to the eastern finals...sounds reallie kool....check out ESPN yeah?

2003-05-10T19:34:00.000-07:00

It's mothers day today...woke up at ard 8.30 and started cooking mum's mother's day breakfast...wasnt ultra fantastic tho...just did a simple combo. of scrambled eggs with cheese and tomato with bacon and a wholemeal roll...i think she kinda liked it coz if i'm not wrong its the kinda breakfast she really enjoys...Ian got her some danish pastry to go with it and Mikey bought her an Instyle magazine to accompany the food...it's actually been quite a while since we all sat down and had a proper breakfast since Ian's in the army and Mikey's always asleep at that time....have to get ready for church real soon but i think i'd recap on wat happened yesterday...
Yesterday was pretty fine...started the morning bright and early at 7.15 to go for sailing...there wasnt much wind so we ended up repairing boats...i was the screwdriver-er and the boat washer...it was kinda fun but screwdriving isnt exactly the best job to have since ppl like Pei yu ask you to take the screw out and then put it in again twice over...but nonetheless it was still pretty fine...washing the boats can get pretty fun as well...didnt go out for lunch with the other sailors coz i wanted to get home quickly and get my work done...but i ended up having to go to grandmum's place for lunch....Later on i had to go buy Mum's motherday ingredients so i did it just after they left for dinner...the roads were pretty busy and scary but i managed to stay on the pavement for most of the time...Bukit Timah isnt exactly the friendliest road to cycle on....got mum the bestest tomatoes you could fine...nice beef tomatoes which cost a whopping 1.49 per 100g...now thats quite abit...then got some danish bacon and 2 nice wholemeal rolls....
Chua's birthday had started and i was still at home! so i quickly put on some clothes and took a cab to highate...it was pretty alrite but i didnt noe much ppl so it was kinda wierd...but we played soccer and i scored two goals...haha whoa...been quite a long time since i played soccer....ohk then that was it...
to all the mums...Happy Mother's Day
*poof*

2003-05-08T07:44:00.000-07:00

itsss blogging time! lots happened today...oh at least it sure felt like it...PE was first up and we had to do the Napfa test thing for the 5 stations...everything went pretty well..all except for my standing broad jump which was 229 which is only a c? but anyways i found out that i could still get a gold for napfa even with a C...i think they should have the standing broad jump thing proportionate to height! anyways...i did pretty well for my shuttle run...i think my lowest yet at 9.3....and then i managed to cram in 50 sit ups in a minute...the wierd thing was that i didnt feel much of a strain throughout...i think sailing's reallie helping me keep my fitness up...all i gotta do is my 2.4....aiming to get below 10.20...altho thats like one and a half minutes off my timing last week but heck ill give it a shot...
the rest of the day was kinda routine and chinese class is still as bloody boring as ever...then i had to ultra scriblle to get my human geogo done....got home real quick...like ard 4.30...then i jjust lazed for quite abit...havent had time to just slow down and breathe...i had to do Ms netty's red badge thing as well
Then this is the koooool part...Dad brought back a spanking Mini Cooper S...its like super awesome and sleek...and the whole thing is just darn steamingly cyberly kool....shit i want one of those when i grow up...i do miss the vroom vroom of the porsche but hell i dont mind the bling bling of the mini...its prety darn spacious and i think its the 4 different small car Dad has had after his porsche, afla and saab...but i love the new car and its sweeet...
*poof*
p.s. oh yah a Super Happy Birthday to Boon Seer...you're a big girl now at 17!

2003-05-07T06:38:00.000-07:00

Well I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell, I know right now you can't tell, But stay a while and maybe then you'll see a different side of me - Matchbox Twenty
whoa here i am again! the whole darn day went by in a flashhhh...well maybe a few flashes...anywayss>>>today was a pretty fine day i suppose..altho i had to do the darn geog test and wasnt feeling too fantastic in the morning...i think i had a sore throat kinda thing going...but im feelin much much betta...anyways...
haha started the day fine...was almost late coz mum decided to fill up at shell when it was already 7+ but then again she asked whether it was alrite and i said yes sooo nothing to complain about...haha but i can get abit kan chiong...like a adrenalin rush...dunno why...im always in a rush for some reason..everything i do i rush..when i play those RPG games i always chiong and like mario and stuff i always chiong also...when i go up the stairs i dont go step by step and if i wanna get from A to B i jog...wth is wrong with me..haha oh "im always on the go!"
Sailing today was fine...tho i didnt sail as much as i would have liked to...had to help out the second intake sailors again and its quite stressful making sure they all have enough boats and fill up the forms and the check lists...haha it kinda reminds me of prefect crap...managed to sail a laser...went out with china coach...he's actuallie not too bad...altho its in chinese i can half understand what he says and it actuallie quite easy to learn when he explains things on the boat...but he's still a half dimwit for bringing the fellas out that saturday...haha...when we reached shore it started raining like mad...but it was cooling...then i became freeeezing...we also managed to get a few sailing pictures! maybe we could put them up on the board soon!
Yup...my blogging style has been slightly modified...coz JOEL kinda complained that my continuous "..." instead of paragraphing is soo difficult to read...so now i've paragraphed my bloggings in such a way that every paragraph has one main point...oh Mrs Chiang would be sooo pleased to see me put to use the stuff she taught me in the first 3 months with the AA1-ers...
Oh yeah...Chia ernh recommended the AA3-ers to do a party for the seniors! gotta ask the girls to plan something...haha i think if they left it with the guys to plan it'll never ever come to life.....

2003-05-06T03:30:00.000-07:00

ohh blazing bananas...its been 2 days since i've updated...didnt update on sunday coz there was something wrong with my com or blogger...and then last night i was too busy getting the stupid E1 assignment done..and then i had to finish up that GP application question...anywaysss moving along...
Yesterday was not sooo fine...firstly i didnt feel good after school and after all the training...think it was coz i havent been getting enough sleep the past few days...another flying banana was that the soccer team didnt manage to get a shot into the goal with apparently nine tries or so Ian told me...how unlucky could we get...Joses played not 2 bad...so did chris...i think they should be in the first team lineup! but then again the others are pretty good too...
Today...didnt do alot today...school was kinda so-so...was supposed to do that 2.4 but i thought i'd better not risk getting more sick so i just sat out and watched the others run...joel did pretty well...got an A...i think yap xiong and sean just missed the A by 10 seconds?aye i hope i do fine for my 2.4 but my stamina really sucks badly...i think its the mental thing or something like that...just cant break through...anyways...we've got the five station thing on fri...hopefully there i can do fine...the rest of the day was fine...Mr Lynn's class was finally abit more like what it used to be in AA1...more hee hee ha ha but still getting work done at the same time...haha i think Mr Lynn totally cracked Pat up....oh yeah! Quentin and the Choir got a Gold for their competition thing...CONGRATS TO ALL THE CHOIR PPL ...TOSHI AND QUENTIN ESPECIALLY!!!...After school i followed Shu Fen to this semi-ulu place in Queenstown where we took a look at the sailing jacket...pretty swell i suppose...abit stylo i suppose...and its different from all the normal school jackets...hope the other fellas like the jacket and all...shower time! *poof*
oh yah...Arsenal lost the premiership to man u...blazing bananas! hows that possible?

Yesterday...once more

Yesterday was kinda normal...boring...didnt do much actuallie...no tests no nothing...we had training after school but me, joel and sean didnt reallie do much for training coz we had to help Ms marhaini move some kinda table thing for the plants...we did 15 mins of carrying that for 1 HOUR of CIP...now is that awesome or is that awesome? i wanna do lots of CIP hours so that i get a nice looking CV for uni...i think my ultimate aim will be stanford coz their psychology is the best in the whole of america...and its in Sannn fraannnsiscooo...would be nice to study where both my folks studied...as well as my granddad...ANYWAYS>>>we had our SJI yesterday as well...we had to go allll the way to Joy's place...haha but it was still fun just hang ard eating and playing some games...haha oh yah i was walkin to the food and i took a huge slide off the marble floor...but i mananged to keep my drink still in the cup and not totally maluate myself...haha wen yee said i almost took my eyeball out at the corner of the stairs! anyways,,, we toped it off with a mini learn-how-to-bhangra session...pretty fruitful i must say...learnt quite alot!haha after that i felt abit tipsy like i had been drinkin or something...and then i accidentally scolded tim c or something! felt quite horrible coz i didnt even noe wat i was doin...sorry again tim!

today...is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you

Today lots of crap happened for quite afew ppl...firstly joel had his mini crisis on his boat...geri almost killed herself and the boat...and i think i got relegated to the second team...wat a day...the second team's fun to be with...and its great that huzaini's the coach...but from like a competitive point of view...i dont see how ill ever be able to improve for the nationals if i dont get to sail a laser untill a few weeks later...as it is andrew said we dont have much time already...oh hell maybe im just being a sour prune...i wanted to go out and all but i forgot to bring money along and that reallie helped to top off a unmemorable sailing day...haii....i gotta do a lit essay...same one as joel...ohkkkkk....fly me away from here! *poof*

today wasnt tooooo bad a day. had the darn chinese test which wasnt too bad...it always ends up being less chaotic than i really think it would be...but i was just kinda unhappy that i couldnt even give myself a fighting shot at the test because i didnt have enough time for studying all 200+ of the cheng yus...i ended up copying a few crossword chengyus from Jacq and Ian...thanks alot guys! hahah i think i might just do well enough for a pass...we had our school track and field meet rite after school but we were allowed to skip class from 11.30 onwards...pretty awesome...i was kinda nervous coz i havent run in such a long while...altho i used to run all the time in primary school...we ended up getting jon ong,geri and shu fen...thot we didnt do too badly...geri got off the block pretty well and shu fen ran pretty fine too...but i suppose we did well in maintaining our place and we got second last...not fantasti but not all that bad considerin we were also fightin against the netballers,soccer fellas and ruggers...not to forget the blazin crossers...was speakin to mortal after the meet and she told me that he thot i was giving him dirty looks or something...pretty ridiculous....quite laughable coz firstly i dont even noe him and secondly i couldnt reallie be bothered with it...but its reallie unfair to mortal i suppose...she also told me that SL was kinda sad abt the whole thing that went on with me and her(SL)....makes me feel reallie crapped up and it reallie shows what a flawed person i am...i suppose i was just really bloody selfish but i didnt wanna have to think abt relationships during such a crucial time like the A levels...but hell it still makes me bad...and i think it'll always make me feel bad...sucks i suppose...anyways i gtg now...btw i was reading yap xiong's blog and im reallie touched by the way he reallie appreciates the things ppl did for him for his birthday...maybe i should be more like him...be more appreciative...thanks yap xiong for the inspiration!

I'm restarting a blog..everyone in class is beginning to blog so i thought i'd revive this blog again...aye school's been pretty stressful for not much apparent reason...we had a GP common test yesterday and it was simple...just that i didnt have enough time to finish the whole darn thing which was kinda wasted since i read allll the articles except for one which joel helped me with...
was super high durin the first period...dunno why but it felt good to smile and relax for a while...altho at the expense of paying attention to wat elaine loh was saying...saw all the people who were being nominated as councillors...jianwei'sbeen nominated! Thats a good thing coz i think he'd make a good councillor...coz he's well meaning and all...we had darn PE today as well but good thing that we didnt have to do another 2.4...altho we did quite afew of those two-legged hop things and some shuttle run...By the end of the day i was kinda tired and all...and we still have CHINESE bloooody test tml..flying bananas i think im just going to study the more common ones..altho i kinda promised Jacqueline that i'd learn the second hundred while she learns the first hundred....but i reallly dont see the point with all the memorising of cheng Yus...coz i was doin the 5yearseries for Mr Kwan and theres not much importance on cheng yus...you just gotta read the question and analyze and blah blah...anyways>>>i still gotta do abit coz Lao shi said i shouldnt fail since i got 35/50 for my first chinese CA...i think i'll just give it a shot...
Aye six oclock and i havent taken a bath yet...Mr kwan's comin at 8.15 so ive got abt 2 hours to learn a few...wo zhen de bu zhi dao wei she me shen huo shi zhe me xing ku....
