today was teachers' day celebration. tml is teachers' day!
a lot of funny things happening today la...
u see ruth n christine heads popping out of a cloth like the (超级变变变) and their hands in green gloves... so farnie la, n dey were like smiling all the way shaking their hot bodies....
well done la u ppl...
actually dis year celebration i think is better than last year except for the emcees.. i think we should hav gotten better and less attitude ppl....
enjoyed the first part of the day pretty much...
Mad's brownies were really veri nice... ok if i really cmi for my studies (worst case senario), then i open a confectionary.... i will go steal recipies from ruth n mad to make their cookies and brownies... muhaha.. or maybe u 2 will like to join me? searchin for jelly-maker, fried-ice-cream seller and more... my shop needs more stuff to be sold...
second part was goin back to my sec sch.. rv... yay so fun.. meetin up with classmates and crapping again... talked a lot with huang lao shi n she promised to treat us for a meal b4 all de guys enter army.. after that we went to ikea restaurant and ate lunch... as usual, all the funny things happened.. kenny filled his cup of tea with milk and it didn't taste lik teh anymore... the curry chicken there is really nice... we talked quite a lot durin the meal n it was really great catching up with them...
kenny taught us a jian tactic to tell the girls on "i love u" haha...
sort of missed the times spent in rv when we played n slacked most of the time... we mus really get a chalet..!!
after the lunch, i went to orchard to meet up wif my swim team jrs... they wanted to treat the seniors dinner so might as well haha... but i went to redeem my prize at the apple shop first. it really turned out to be the flagship card which jason had... haha quite no use for me cos i dun use any apple stuff... (tho i like to eat apples when my mom cuts them up)
then i met some of them first, they wanted to go k box which 4 of us is quite little, so we decided to watch a movie first b4 meetin up wif the rest. guess wad, it had been quite some time i last watched a movie le... i tink the last one i caught was War of the worlds with bern n jiali n a lot of nj ppl..
so 4 of us, there was ale, the onli gal, so she chose herbie fully reloaded.. she tot the other 3 guys will want to see lindsay lohan.... lol she's pretty la but too much freckles.. even her hands got... n we had to settle for first row la... de cinema was full.. ok herbie is a male volkswagon bug car who has a mind of its own, lindsay lohan is a gifted car racer n together they combine to be the best combi n they raced in nascar... cool! the show has a lot of great-looking cars, nice-looking gals and nice story plot. herbie is like the previous version of the volkswagon beetle now and in the show, herbie took a liking to a beetle, and lindsay said,"she's too young for u"! a lot of driving scenes so it's like a guy's movie... herbie is small n beautiful n oso veri fast, just like someone whose name rhymes with it!!! haha! (pretty obvious ah)
after de movie was marche eating time... since it's jrs treatin so i went for the more ex stuff... ate an oyster even tho it doesn't fill my stomach, just for the "shuang" feeling haha.... and being the poor ex-cap they forced me to eat very sour olives, cauliflower in saturated-pepper-and-salt-and-tobasco-sauce... wa, wonder how my stomach will react, it's alright at the moment!
thanks for the dinner tho! and stefie, enjoy shanghai, will miss ya in our team!!
lala.. tell u more tml... yawn, it's a long day!
come to think of it, today is the last of our "normal" life, tml onwards, full throttle on! Jiayou!!

a generally slack day... this week is momentum-losing week, all the momentum i've been building up seems to have been losing. basically this week is teachers' day celebration and meeting up with secondary friends...
talking about today, as usual you have to find some things to laugh upon to continue with the boring day. first, the pa crew purposely adjusted the mike stand for bernie to maktab (i'm not implying anything here arrr..) but her voice is loud enough le, no need for amplifying effect.
next, i got back my personal statement from mrs nair, she's so enthu abt such things but still dun wanna return my essay that i wrote for her! and she was telling me, you musn't lose touch with GP, so must at least write an essay each week... (see if i got the time)
chem was fun, playing with conc acid, and white fumes... but the iodide test was really bad, especially when hydrogen sulphide was released, it's the smelly rotten-egg smell :(!! that time when i was at new zealand when they brought us to this place with a lot of hot springs and that place is full of H2S gas.... wa pengz... (rub medicated oil on ur nose to relieve the smell)
afternoon, lun haoz n i went to pan pac hotel for the mini-small-scale-but-quite-high-budget UK university exhibition. although the very good uni were not there, my choice of uni was present! got to talk with the chem engine tutor who is really a funny guy. if onli we hav such lecturers in NJ. and he was saying chem engine is better than aerospace ... lol funny... but after the talk, know more and feel better abt what to expect. Most Importantly, get good results for As!
teachers' day celeb tml, hope it will be a veri fun day! watch out for the walking radio!!!
*police car siren*
best of friends we were now that i'm not sure

GP prelims is over! but there's still a lot more papers to go... haiz...
anyway, gp today was ok la, the vocab suddenly becomes quite easy and one of the words was scoundrel and i immediately thought of "asshole" but being the politically correct me, i wrote something else, something less vulgar... xianlun wanted to write bastard... haha... then we thought of all sorts of solutions, some including hokkien...
just a laughter for u all up there, there's a lighter note to every tests...
the survey on schoool quality was quite worthless....
the physics s lecture was veri interesting and once again all physicists want to tell everyone the point that Physics is the King of Science where chemistry and biology are subsets...
went to west mall to select teachers' day pressie and another swensons sundae in my stomach.. haha (xianlun's always watching out for prety gals... opps!)
and i was reading fourm today and i was pretty surprised to see an article written by an NJ student... now there's this debate on long school time hours and stressful students.
to all u students out there, if u want go read the articles and i think all this stressful life and long school hours things are just temporary. just hang on for 1 or 2 years, u will enjoy a basket load full of fruits, u reap wad u sow! i'm not too sure abt the student describing mrs VC as far-sighted is appropriate, but his writings sort of expressed what's in my mind.
quote him, " Students, like adults, need to strike a balance between work and life. We need time to rejuvenate as well. In fact, a junior college student's responsibility, stress and workload may be on par with those of an adult." some thinkings for u..?
Man U just won another game without conceding a goal AGAIN!! aiyo.. i don't think anyone can stop us now la.... all the way man!!!
I am a [NBMUAE] (doesn't sound lik vulgarity or any sorts) it represents something! try guessing... haha
seeing ruth, christine and jiali makes my day, thanks for ur concerns!!! dun be too stressed up yar? and ruth take care of ur throat and ur beautiful voice!
check out.. cya!

ohh... another not-productive day spent.. but got to go out of my house and slack... gp next mon, hope a familiar topic of mine will pop out, if not i can try my way to crap through...
basically i'm startin on the "out-of-7-days-visit-suntec-3-times" schedule. so today met up wif jiali bernie and haoz for the spooks show at suntec. just sad that christine and ruth can't come cos they got someting on. missa u 2 lor... but i noe u are preparing for the much-anticipated teachers' day celebration.Jiayou!! and later we met up wif jolynn.. haha (kept stepping on jolynn's slipper)
the spooks show was veri scary i must say, cool effects, great sound system and the air-con was just nice for me. (maybe i'm hot in the first place, but bernie was feeling cold la, lucky got jiali's jacket which she was hao-lian-ing to us... it's her ideas jacket wif her name sewn on)
a lot of very gross blood-spurting scenes and elevatating people but overall i think the show was enjoyable...
actually after the show, it got me thinking abt life (though i slept a little when the guy was speaking, not that it's boring, it's jus the seat and air-con was too comfortable)
i believe i will find my spiritual belonging one day, the search continues and i await for your arrival.
tml hav chan brother travel fair at suntec too, dunno my parents wanna go, if not it will be 4times in 7 days.

Today was sort of the last day of this term.
Fond memories over the past 3 months.
what was "fun" today was physics lesson. we had our double physics tutorial, so basically we finished our aim by 12pm and the lesson ends at 1230. feeling bored and nothing to do, ms yee suggested we played charade (is this how you spell).. we will act out the physics term and let our frens guess.. the class was split into 2 teams. basically all the funny physics terms appeared like, cyclotron, de broglie's wavelength, diode and blah blah.. it was really funny seeing people acting the terms (but how to act out) anyway the guys won by a point in the end. what i was amazed of Ms yee is such a great teacher. she actually let us play in lessons and joined in the fun. she's most probably doing this to help us de-stress... aww.. she's good!
and i saw the passion pursuit day schedule... very weird and funny... u see mrs VC having make-up as her passion... (i'm doubting it) and a lot more... really want to go school on that day and see what funky stuff teachers are doing!
last pe lesson of the year le, i tink... so sad, being the sporty me, pe lessons is the most enjoyable lesson,.. haha and today we played floorball again! veri fun and i scored the winning goal yay!! n yup i accidentally stepped on the ball too and "deflated" it, lucky ruifen "inflated" it back...
i wonder how long the class spirit will burn, but definitely, it's burning very strongly now.
GP prelims on mon.. hope i can really do well... bless me!
Jim popped a can of Jolly Shandy @ 11:59 PM
as all the prelims/promos/or whatever that's stressful near us, we must take a step backwards and relax. if we over-stretched, then we will snap and everything that we have worked hard will be washed down the drain. so people, de-stress as and when.
some pointers to de-stress,
-play rubik cubes, try to solve it if you don't know how to, if you know how to, try to beat your own timings
-meet up with friends and just chill out, this one always work!
-eat more, then your body mass increases, so the stress will be spreaded out over a larger area, so you will feel less stressed!
-have a stress-free mindset by being happy always (this is just a spiritual concept, if you attained this step, you have reached enlightenment...)
well just being crappy, in fact, blogging makes me destress.. and i will solve the cubes mystery tml when jason teaches me the full thing... haha
don't be too stressed up, you people out there!! U can DO it!!

taking a breather down here.... *inhale* *exhale* wao, feel fresh...(wad, am i getting mad?)
when haoz and i were talking to jolynn this afternoon, it further made me conclude that time really flies very fast, like an arrow. just in march, we were at maldives slogging hard to help rebuild and enjoying the sun, now we are slogging for our studies and enjoying the stacks of worksheets. she was like exclaiming that 3 months later, we will leave NJ for NS. maybe all the mugging takes me away from my emotional feelings, but her these words jolted me back to reality, i wonder how life will be without you friends in school? i guess i will miss you all very much so let's cherish the little time we have now and hope to meet up regularly next year, yar?(then i can show you all my crew cut hairstyle. haha)
i had a little discussion with Mr sim in his "untidy" office with haoz and jason. basically just went there to talk about our scholarships and university options. he welcomed us by saying, feel free to sit, but the sofa was filled up with stuff, so we could only settle with the carpet floor. and he mentioned about treat it like maldives la... and i was thinking tidiness and hotness, which one will i choose, i will go for hotness, cause i like the sun! back to the university thing, he made it sound like UK university is quite easy to get in as compared to US la... (but i prefer the environment and atmosphere at UK)
i was reading the new paper and saw this report. the murder of sindee a little girl case in court is going on. and yesterday was the people from HSA filing their report on the findings. so they re-enacted the scene of sindee being thrown down and the professor was presenting his findings. a lot of jargons like centre of gravity, projectile, inelastic collsion, momentum, kinetic energy, force were popping out during the court case. that sounded so like a physics or FM paper 2 lesson. then the prosecution raised a doubt of whether the report is accurate and apparently the next debate started. the professor spewed out his statistical knowledge. A n=30 trials were carried out, (since n=30 is large, it is assumed that the distribution is approximated to normal distribution) so the findings should be quite accurate..... GOSH! i shall stop le, this is the result of doing too many revision on FM paper 2 which includes mechanics and statistics. lol... haha
looking forward to so many things, cause they provide me thrust for me to go on! jiayou everyone!
Oh ya, it's mimi aka qianling's bdae... happy birthday!! mimi sect spirit live on.. -_-

well... did nuthin much over the weekend (it's not a good sign, considering prelims are in 3 weeks' time)
yup, so basically clearing up homework (not revisions!!), it's bad...
once again, 2 tests next week. on the same day somemore... arrgh
next next week will be suntec-visiting time again i think... (just dunno y people like to have conventions there, but i definitely prefer there to expo!!) although it's nearer for someone... actually a lot more la... haha (craps)
PM lee made a great speech just now. i'm having great thoughts of singapore in the future. and he said abt having taufik and sly as our service ambassadors or something, i think it's not going to work, choose some people more influential lik JJ, Sun yan zi?(both from sajc)
n yup, Marina in the next 10 years will be very nice!! i can foresee it to be the next hip n coolest place..
i admire his leadership and speech presentation. it's very good, and he injects humour now and then to prevent people from falling asleep. the nanyang poly video clips were funny.. so people, singapore is service-orientated, and tourism is one of our major sectors in our economy! mindset changing ah... some customers can get very rude!!boo!
and u can always spot the 2 NJ students in the crowd.(one is the council pres, the other dunno) 2 reasons:
1.we are the first JC, so we have some significance in singapore, thus they will give us good seats which the cameras will film them.
2.the Very Red blazers make them stand out in the sea of formal wear which consists mainly of black, blue and dull colors. lol
nevertheless, rally speech is something which i look forward to since i was sec 3, back then in sec 1 or 2, my parents will force me to listen but i find it veri boring. but i guess i matured and find the things which PM discussed veri useful and engaging, so ya, i can sit in front of my tv and "enjoy" it!
after his speech, i'm in awe and more proud of singapore, even more as being a singaporean! the future is bright, dare to dream , my frens!!, cos the future is ours to make!!
PM lee's chinese darn good, that final phrase 康庄大道, just summarise the happy days we can look forward to!
why is PM Lee's today in history book much bigger than ours? hmmph!
tomorrow in future, here we come! haha

random thoughts entry,.,.
guanwen is alright le, he came back to school yeaterday in his smart formal attire and i guess a few more days' of rest he will be back to his old self!! i think it's jus a build up of stress for all especially prelims are just lurking around the corner.
pe was fun yesterday, we played floorball again! it will be one of the last few PE lessons we will have le... can you believe it, after JC, no more pe lessons, you have to regularly do some exercises to keep yourself fit. but i think NS will be a great training ground. so sad never get to see christine in her pe, get well soon ah!!
the school has to buy more floorballs cause our class seemed to be squashing the balls... lol
swensons $4 sundae offer is really the best offer i've known. the ice-creams are nice and cheap, hope the offers still run on for a long time so i can enjoy it.
some time ago i entered a contest to win an ipod, almost won it though, but not bad i won the consolation prize, don't know what i will get, must go apple store and check it out to redeem my prize.
there's a very nice intellectual game in I&E Hub called stormy seas! go play. I&E is innovation n enterprise is where u slack n meet some poeple...
i feel the S04 spirit more stronger, maybe the time for us together is getting lesser so we are cherishing each other more. hang on till As! and just asking if our class are the most enthusiastic for the grad night? haha any prize?
should i go OB Japan? i don't feel like using more of my parents' money but they say if you want to go then go la! my mom even said,"this is the first time i give you money and you don't want." i love my parents la, they are just too great. i should help them save money right? but i'm still not sure are we going for holiday this year-end? it has been a long time le, since my family went for a holiday overseas.
UK is a great place. it's quite multi-racial, soccer originates from there, the best football clubs are there, it's the gateway to europe, SIA flies thrice weekly to manchester and daily to Heathrow, London. and the 3 best things....
Manchester United is in England! University of Manchester is just near-by to Old Trafford.
and Greenwich Mean Time is at UK, meaning you do not hav to subtract or add time cause all time zones are taken with respect to it. so great!
nice commands, radiant skin, shiny ear rings, you just shine out!haha, i'm just dreaming!

Today we had a "class outing" to Alexandra Hospital to visit Guanwen...
it all started this morning when Ms lim told us that guanwen was hospitalised cause he fainted in school yesterday during his Track elections. I'm not too sure about the details as to what actually happened, but i guessed the situation was bad. An ambulance was called and he was sent there. yup, so first second and third periods were non-stop tests, which my chem was ok but maths was a killer again! arrgh....
One thing that i was very touched and happy to see that the whole class was very enthusiastic and very concerned about guanwen's condition cause i think most of us were shocked about what happened. he was the vice-cap of track and the 1st or 2nd fastest 2.4km runner in NJC, veri active and atheletic guy. As to the reason why he fainted, the results will be known tonight. it was probably just a sudden high blood pressure case, which could have arisen from his not regular eating... heard he did not have his breakfast on wed and we played soccer that morning in which he scored 2 very nice goals!!
anyway when we visited him, he was looking great.if nothing happens, he will be discharged tml afternoon and he can attend the colour's award tomorrow night. all the best to him and hope he takes care!! jiayou guanwen!!
talking about this, i am reminded of the case that happened 2 years back when one of my classmates unfortunately passed away due to brain cancer. i seriously don't wish to have this situation happen again *CHOI!* *touching wood now* this further made me understand the preciousness and importance of life. I hope to live each day to the fullest and hope u people do! so i shall start by going for the free medical checkup next week and ensure i'm alright, and have a healthy lifestyle. (though i'm pretty much scared about the thought of injection and blood test, bad experiences at CMPB, but nurses should be better than doctors in injections)
to all, cherish life! and guanwen, Take care!!
*edit* project superstar has clearly shown even the disabled can achieve greater success! lucks to kelvin and jiali (nt cool, but pan) haha

Just when a rosy picture was painted for the next 5 years, everything starts to go bleak for me...
Oil prices start to soar again.. (this will cause a lot of things to increase in prices, well fossil fuel is the main source of energy, other than our dear SUN)
my maths test failed as expected.. (must really do well for the coming maths mock test.. but chemistry is also tested on the same thursday, energetics and kinetics arrgh... which one to choose? chem or maths? the answer's pretty clear, MATHS)
But behind these black clouds, there lies a silver lining..
Lovely Loofe made choc-chip cookies for the J2s, i'm really touched and i must say the cookies are damn nice to eat! (ruth you should consider opening a shop to fight again famous amos, i will support you)
the fact that going school and seeing friends make my day and i feel great... (a drive to push me on for the day)
tiger woods bounce back from his bad start in US PGA championship. this shows that miracles do happen, but it's his confidence. but even though he might not win, it's his tiger spirit that conquered me... (not tiger beer, it sucks)
Quote from a joke in signs, the movie
A: Do you believe in miracles?
B: Ya, I think so.
A: Tell me more.
B: Once, i went to this party and i saw this pretty girl. i sat beside her and we talked. we progressed and i think i can give her a kiss. but there's this gum in my mouth, so i went away for a while to spit it out.
A: then?
B: when i came back, she puked all over her body. drank too much alcohol. I can't imagine myself kissing her then drinking her puke! Yucks!
A: a great miracle.. lol
something to add on, an article i read in the newspaper..
Bill Gates's Microsoft has filed for a patent that includes Apple's Ipod technology and if he is successful, Apple has to pay USD10 for each Ipod sold till now. considering the number of ipods sold, bill gates will earn millions of dollars (nearing billions) without doing anything other than filing for the patents earlier than Apple. so that's how Bill Gates become the Richest Man On Earth!!!
yeah... endure! it will be over soon! lala...
dun sigh, be high!!
even though i'm not talking much to you nowadays le, i think we are both busy, but do know that i always care for you! I will be there for you, if you need! take care!

n Yup, Mr S R Nathan in the onli candidate to run for the next presidential election of singapore. so that means he automatically becomes the president of Singapore. so i've a ques, do we still enjoy a public hol on 27 aug? no voting is needed wad.. hmm.. dunno!anyway i tink he deserved to be la! he once sacrificed himself to be in the position of some hostages. in the today in history book, it was mentioned that many years back, some terrorists tried to take over the present jurong island shell refinery.. then they had some hostages, n mr nathan some some others sacrificed themselves to be in the position of the hostages.. wao!! impressed! in the end, i tink the terrorits died, cos the commandos chionged in? nt sure.. well... if Mr nathan is alright now, means the terrorists were dead..

I just Koped the "Today In History Singapore" book from my sister. i still remembered last yr NJC participated in this project and we were supposed to write a happening significant to singapore on our birthday. i forgot what i wrote for mine le (dis shows how insignificant my birthday was in singapore history, maybe de birth of me shall be one! haha)
sharing points:
at page 7, there's a small print saying "Caution! this is not an academic text. use it to study for your exam at your own risk!" haha really damn funny.. lol
but generally i so lik the design of the book, and it's a great organiser, there's no year written on it, so it's a whole yr book tingy, where u record all ur family n frens' bdae and significant anniversary.. a lot of pics and interesting stories.. shall start filling de book up cos my sis gav it to me.. haha, heard we might be getting ours soon...
on my birthday Dec 9, dis wonderful ting happened,
First Flight from central africa to singapore for imperial airways 1933..
apparently at dat era, the fastest plane reaching a speed of 130km/h flew to singapore from africa.. an aspiration to be aeronautical engineer fits dis significant event on my birthday la.. so cool.. well haha
some other significant events lik cold storage opening, red cross singapore set up, arrival of lady mary wood(a mail steamer), cable network first launched, (so now i can use internet), changi airport officially opened.. wao.. go check urs!! haha..
yep, man U won it's first match of de 05/06 season!! good start is de half of a success!! go on!!

yup dis is a Giant Birthday Card to singapore attempting to break guiness book of record. u can maybe still see dis at Je..
well so today i went to de heartsland celebration at JE wif kenny bro.. reached dere at ard 4, veri de hot.. bascially de fun was dere and de motivators really did a great job.. we were walkin ard, finding good spot to sit down n enjoy de show.
haha n i saw bernie, in her motivator costume, dancin to de NDP song, she looks great la and i mus say u do not look comical! really, look even u r, dere are hundreds more ard u too..
haha so we sat down, watched de performance, sly performed and he sang picture of u, a nice song which i neber heard for a long time le...
anyway a lot of tings happened in btw, and i saw kenny teo, our pres.. haha
de ting was dat, kenny and I do nt hav de goody bags which most ppl in JE got, n dey hav dis big palm ting which dey can wave.. n de singapore wave was to be synchro wif padang to marina to JE to yishun to tampines. cool la!!
den de parade went on, with all de F-16s fly past and i didn't noe dey would fly past us at JE and it was bombastic again... dey on deir thrust n blasted thru de sky at quite a low altitude... wao!! nice...
after dat nuthin much, de musical segment was as usual "entertaining".. and ade came n joined us.. (oh u shld hav come la, live so near! haha opps) den we crapped along...
learnin point of de day:
de saf apparently put some dry ice into de clouds before de parade to induce a rain, thus if u observe, all NDP hav great weather but normally in de mornin dere's a little rain or dark clouds..
ok haha
de highlight of de day was as usual, de fireworks! a photographer suddenly appeared near us and set up his tripod, wif his camera facing de field across de road so i supposed de fireworks would be dere and YAR, i'm correct!! so i stand-by and recorded de fireworks wif my camera.. haha fireworks tho were less in amt and designs as compared to dose in marina, but de fact dat it was released jus across de road was good enuff, veri loud and veri real...!!
so yup de ndp dis yr ended lik dat wif some concert at de end, where 183 club came up again and lip-sync haha.. yup!!
today's a happy day, it's a public hol, tml's a sch hol.. PM said our economy is doin well lately, our economy forecast is good, Discovery landed at California safely!! (lucky dis time nt lik Challenger) NASA's back.. and i had fun today!
so hope Man U will win de match later... (dun understimate our opponents!)
In the sea of blue and yellow, I spotted a green.
She was the most striking of all, and her dancing was so well.
Armed with a wonderful smile, she enticed the crowd with her cheers.
Sway yourself to dance number 40, and reach out for the skies.
Grab the opportunities, cause the future is ours to make!

I shall start by wishing Singapore 40th Happy Birthday and Sk his 18th birthday. Sk has the same birthday as Singapore la. So good!
Basically yesterday was spent playing for the whole day. In the morning we had this ceremony and the choir members were standing at the podium up there. I could see Christine and Ruth up there always grinning. Haha, they are always so happy, makes me happy too. Then the ceremony was quite no good, as compared to last year la. And we got our National day souvenirs, the school actually gave us each a MUG!! My god, they really want us to become muggers? (Actually we are already)
After that was community service day, and our class was supposed to receive elderly from St. Lukes home. Apparently they got lost in coming to NJ so they were quite late. Nevertheless we had an enjoyable time in bringing them around the school.
When everything was over, it was lunch time with my S04 class!! Went to the universal place where all students almost went – Orchard! Seoul garden was almost packed, so we settled with Breeks, an American restaurant. Don’t try honeyberry sauce, it’s minty, sweet, salty and quite weird. Ocean mist is a great drink, not when coleslaw, sugar, lemon seed, saliva are added but it’s a power drink that can make you bowl well!
Haha, so after lunch, we went to marina south to bowl. After many months of no bowling actions, I really suck at it. so inconsistent. If guan strikes then I can. Ha ha.
After bowling, I met up with Kenny, Marco and the Birthday boy SK! We went to a Chinese restaurant for dinner at fountain of wealth there. It’s called Yu Jia Zhuang. Service really lousy (maybe they despise us cause we too young?) I’m not going there anymore. Yup and so we talked cock, joked around, walked about and ended up at esplanade at 11pm. We didn’t want to go marnia south cause it’s quite far la. So we camped at esplanade, waited for the fireworks to start. Sk was so lucky lar, so many people helped to countdown to his birthday. But this firework was not the best I’ve seen la, just ok.
So now, mugging a little, later going out again to meet up with Kenny they all. Be motivated! Yeah!!

i'm just doing one of my reflections piece down here....
well wad did i do today... nuthin much, slp quite a lot, oh ya i went to shell station and saw this offer "buy 3 500ml coke/coke vanilla/ coke diet and get a glass coke bottle celebrating singapore 40th birthday for free!" tempted by the offer, i bought de 3 bottles and now quite bloated after gulping down a bottle... but de glass bottle's really nice.. n i won't open it!
watched tv jus now n heard de guy actor saying dis,
"i yearn for a life of my wife and I, living together blissfully and have our own family. Until one day when one died, and the other died a few days later, cause we just can't live without one another."
hmm... wonder how many couples actually experience this. i mean who doesn't want to hav such kind of life. the divorce rate in de world is quite high. all ppl hav deir own traits which need to be tolerated by others, no one is perfect and de art of living together forever is to compromise. de guy oso said,"love is a kind of lust, it will fade away." i dun tink so.. wad do u tink?
some people just think that they know everything, trying to be the "god", making all people around him feel happy, but can he really do it? He tries to bless everyone, brightening up others' day but did he feel happy about his own day? He kept thinking about his life, his studies, his relationships with others, but is he thinking too much? He tries to do everyone good, do a lot of things to make others' day, but is he capable enough to handle all these? In the end, it's him who suffered.

Exactly one year ago, i first met my taiwan fren and soon we mingled well and played everyday for 2 weeks... the TIP experience was unforgettable, and i'm still amazed when some of dem still clearly rememebered de day...
anyway it's becos dis morn, de new batch of tip ppl brought me back on my memory lane to last year... for singapore, we onli chose de top 5 JCs but taiwan, dey all hav so many schs, so dey rotate among deir best schs..
well, de gal who gav her speech in front of de whole sch was commendable, and it was pretty much impromtu and funny oso, but singapore education system will nt allow us to hav a 30min afternoon-nap break... haha...
sch day is pretty much de same, and i believe in my philosophy, try to derive fun from even de most boring lessons... there are learning points everyday, so look out for dem...
learning pt of de day:
i didn't noe de v-sign hand gesture also signifies some vulgarity... it meant someting... den all de time when i'm celebrating and i showed de victory signs, i'm actually scolding?? arrgh, i dunno... if onli everyone could talk den dere will be no hand gestures... dun u agree...? haha (wad kind of lousy theory)
come Owen!!!! come Ballack!!!!!
Don on the Man U colours!!
de man U 05/06 team looks pretty good!! all de way!!
mug mug... next week can slack.. haha
