I don't know why I am writing, but I will just write it anyway. Today, Eunice went to school with this (Hwaa!!) huge panda eyes. Then she complained about eating too much last night (ookkay...). Then she said she dreamed of me getting married (...!). But cannot see with who lol. I have some weird feeling that Eunice always have weird stuff occurring to her... Geez...

Today went to Comex to buy a new laptop. The laptop is a , and is selling at 1.5k at a student promotion. As usual, it was "people hill people ocean". When my father and I reached the hp booth, the sales promoter sort of stare at me for quite awhile (especially at the SRJC logo on my polo shirt). Then he asked me whether I still remember him. Well, he looked kinda familiar, and I searched my memory from SKPS to bowen to AJC to SRJC, and got no results. In the end, he was actually Ming Feng frm punggol sec in the same guitar class at me at compass point last year. (oohh...)What a small world lol.

So as usual, my father sprayed those technical questions at him (poor dude) but he is still rather good at it. After some "interogatting" by my father, we managed to buy the laptop, but not before dad argued about some 3% thingy (dun wan to eleborate) and went off to get cash. So I and Ming Feng sort of stand around and chat (and he slack in the meantime). After awhile, there is this auntie who suddenly pop out and ask Ming Feng sometime about getting a router. He was kinda shock lol (must be because he was slacking at a corner)... Since he didn't know the answer, the auntie asked me (now i am shock lol). I sort of point to her the direction to a booth selling cheap router I saw (actually i anyhow point one lar). Ming Feng commented that she was very cute. Lol, agreed.

Well, after we payed for the laptop, we left, and i wish Ming Feng luck.

P.S. We are his first customer... Haha~

Happy Teachers Day!!

Today at SRJC we celebrate Teachers Day with this Song Symphony thingy, and well, it is not that cool (when you see them playing the guitar and hear noting) but some really sang quite well. After that, I and some bowen people sort of gather together and went to bowen. Saw a group of maris with a guy holding a paper with "maris" on it. Lol. Like airport ah?

At bowen, we saw lots of people waiting outside bowen. Even have to paste a sticker to go in. Quite a number of people from 4e1 were there. Ruiboon was missing though. Its good to see them once in awhile. We saw mrs carmen tan, ms suan and mrs ng. Mrs Ng was like... "power man!!"... Nvm. And ms suan was like complaining about the sec4 class writing 24 pages for geo during the prelims. Woa.

After that, I, ben, ron, yuhong and kartik went to AMK hub. While waiting for the bus , I saw Pipop, whom i never contacted for a long time. Took me like 10 seconds to recognize him. I was just staring at him and he stared back. Lol. I was like, he looks farmilar.... looks like Pipop.... but wat's wrong wif the hair lol... It was like...long...and golden... But nevertheless, we talked for awhile and found out he was in nyp doing banking. I was quite shocked since i never expect him to be interested in banking. (Or rather, cannot imagine him in a bank working lol..)

Went to this nebo cafe and saw thina along the way. Discovered that Kartik and Thina were primary school mates. What a small world... After that, we sort of crap around the mall and went home. Well, at least it is nice to see old faces once in awhile...

2007-08-20T20:13:00.000+08:00

My dream phone lol... Touch screen walkman, 8Gb, 2.6 inch screen

2007-08-11T11:56:00.000+08:00

Doing Pw written report now. It was hell. Dunno how to do sia. So weird to do a report on some event you are faking. Sort of defeats the purposes.... Sian...

2007-07-30T22:00:00.000+08:00

Today very funny man! I went to the bus stop wif wenkai and sotong and saw chiong kai there too. There will always be this special phenomenon whenever chiong kai wants to board the bus: his bus 81 will go off whenever he is around 20m away from the bus stop. Everytime. And he was sort of the last one to board a bus everytime. So judging from his facial expression (that crap sia look), he miss his bus again. After sometime waiting, we finally saw his 81 coming from a distance. He was like so damn happy. Then his phone rang, and he said something like...

"Hello? Councillor meeting today?? (shocked expression)"

"I just now have Physic remedial"

"Councillor general meeting??"

"Now?!"

(his bus went by...)

And so, he ran back to school. Talk about fate.

2007-07-09T20:35:00.000+08:00

Today my geography teacher told us some phrases that H2 geography student use during the mid-year exam. It is really funny. (I mean, Wen Kai was laughing like dunno wat) Must be because some of the H2 geography student are art students, taking literature lol. If you don't understand these phrases, that may be because u do not study geo. =p

"In a desert, the water is as little as the number of white tigers on Earth."

"People do not have time to escape mudflows because they do not have time to react to it."

"Oceanic trenches are formed by the accumulation of rain water." (btw, my teacher commented that if this is true, Singapore will be destroyed)

There is one more about tsunami, but i forgot the full description. It is something like the sky flashes with water or light, and the water came out and spike people. Must be a literature student...

2007-07-04T21:23:00.000+08:00

2day was chinese oral exam. One of the examiner was my AJC chinese teacher during the first 3 months! Lol... What are the chances? Is it karma, since i did not return the chinese class fund back then lol....

2007-05-19T16:35:00.000+08:00

Yesterday went to ACS campus to watch the TJC chior perform with Wen Kai, Ronald, Yu Hong and his friend. It is good to have some old friends get together sometimes (not wenkai though, i still see him everyday lol). We went there because Yuhong sis was performing.

Well, ACS is power man. I mean, it does not look like a school at all. From a glance, it look like some holiday resort, with swimming pool and its own church. It almost look like Orgrimmar, the capitial city of the Orcs in World of Warcraft. We were pratically 45 mins late, thanks to wenkai, but I have a feeling that the performace was boring, so it does not really matter. The performace was OK, not perfect and boring at times, but the musical at the 2nd half of the performance was awesome.

In between, Ronald kept telling me about life in poly, which i think was pretty cool, although he found them boring... I mean, wait till you come JC man lol...

Yu Hong just told me to give him $$ for the ticket lol, saying that it is urgent and he is broke. Apparently he owe his sister money, and his sister owe the sch money... Heard that kangli never come due to the $10 ticket lol... Well, abit expensive lar for a school performance but............ nvm.

2007-05-07T21:35:00.000+08:00

PE in JC is still tough... I am still failing my 2.4km run, even though everytime I run I feel like fainting everytime. And then there is pull-up. I and some of my classmates are doing this pull-up machine everyday, and hopefully, I can improve on my 1-2 pull-up.

Piano Dip exam is coming... Again... Hopefully can pass, but not so confident on sight-reading... If fail sight reading = fail whole exam. wth...

Life is so sad... lol...

2007-05-02T22:05:00.000+08:00

Currently, I am watching the anime series "Death Note". I must say that it is one of the coolest anime ever!! Woohoo!! Every episode will be full of mystery and mindgames, and is full of twist and turns. You will never know what will happen next. (Yeah, talk about M&Ns after L lol) I will recommend anyone to watch the "Death Note" anime.

2007-04-23T22:20:00.000+08:00

Hm... Guess who I saw in SRJC today? Mr Michael! O_O It was right after PE as me and wen kei walked towards the concourse, when we saw jessica, telling us that Mr Michael is right at the concourse. That was when the both of us 'stone' down there, starting at him, shocked. I mean, what you expect him to do in SRJC?

So anyway, we just kept starting at him, while i asked wen kei whether he will remember him, since he is his 'beloved' lit rep who has stand on the table and knock against the metal cupboard for him as punishment. And he was like, "no lar, sure forget me one." That was when Mr Michael finally notice us starting at him, and walked towards us. And yep, he still remember wen kei lol. Apparently, he left bowen and went to work in the ministry. He was in SRJC today to check out suitable venue for this 'mega' HOD meeting here. Talk about status. He ended off, saying that he will continue his master's in june, and hopefully see us in NUS.

Well, at least he is not a new teacher in SRJC, thank god lol.

Random Stuff

quote from the Straits Times...

"... One recent e-mail comes from a pregnant woman, who is disappointed that people ignore the sign in the MRT train that tells them to give up a designated seat to people who need it more.She suggests painting the seat a different colour, and enlarging the sign, and installing a loudspeaker beside the seat.

Mr Lim explains her idea: If an able-bodied person takes that seat and refuses to give it up, "the person who is pregnant, elderly or disabled, can press this button. A loudspeaker would shoot up and say: 'Please give the seat to someone who needs it more... and remember one day you might grow old too!"

Chuckling, the MP for East Coast GRC says the idea is "novel" and the train operators will have to look into it. "

Can't wait for the speaker to be installed lol...

Today, I had my second harmonica session and I just got my own harmonica. At first, I had difficulty catching up with the rest because I did not have any hands-on practise previously. As such, I made a fool out of myself, trying to figure out what was previously taught. It seemed as if I was the most dumb person. Luckily, there were new members, and were also like me, which kind of made me feel better.

Anyway, tomorrow I will be going to Sentosa beach with my OG classmates. Haha, I will be bringing my harmonica along, and they can definitely see how lousy I am. There's certainly room for improvement... ...

2007-01-18T22:13:00.001+08:00

Today was my band try-out day... I waited at the band room for soooo long before that conductor came. I and some other ppl then follow the conductor instruction, which is positioning our lips to make some squeaky sound (he called it buzzing..). Alvin (another guy joining band) ended up making some farting noises and both of us felt very giddy after awhile... I could not make that sound after many attempts. In the end, I had to stop half-way and go for my PE class.

After getting home, I sort of search on the internet to find out more about some techniques of playing woodwind and brass, as I was curious about the whole purpose of the 'farting' sound we tried to make during the band try-out. I was like, shouldn't you just blow the instrument like you do for recorder during primary school? After some net searching, I found out that I was so so wrong. Playing the woodwind and brass actually requires good 'embouchure' to play well. 'Embouchure' means position of lips and tongue: the adjustment of the lips and tongue in playing a wind instrument.

Naturally, I was shocked. It is much harder than I thought. Maybe I have been playing too much piano and got used to the concept that 'what you press on the key is what you hear on the instrument'. In other words, any slight change in your lips or tongue position will change the instrument's tone and pitch.

Well, I hope I can do better for tmr band pratice (if there is one for me..). I dun wan play brass.... I wan play oboe... :)

I had my first harmonica session today, in case any of you didn't know it, I joined Harmonica for my CCA. Well, I had quite an interesting lesson today, with our teachers-in-charge and our seniors teaching us on the knowledge needed to play the harmonica. I found them humorous, and the entire group was always burstling with laughter. Sadly, I was all alone by myself, as none whom I knew had joined Harmonica. As what most people had said, there were mostly girls in Harmonica, with only a handful of guys.

Learning a new musical instrument was fun, as I always had wanted to venture into music, but never given the opportunity. It was rather easy to manage, they were patient with us, who had no musical background at all. It was quite challenging to me, and like what the teacher told us, learning it is a form of culture.

Previously, I was fickle-minded, considering whether to take Choir, Symphonic Band or Harmonica, but I finally decided on it, and I will not regret the decision that I have made.

Okay, I've got a lot to say about today. After being sorted out into our different classes, we got to know our new PD tutor and of course new classmates. Firstly, after the maths lecture at the auditorium, we rushed to meet our form class. I had a tough time searching though, if not for the help of my student handbook. My PD tutor is a chinese teacher, who will also be the one teaching us chinese. Almost everyone in my class doesn't seem to like her a lot, because she is someone rather hot-tempered, and wants things done in a perfect manner, or simply, she expects a lot from us. We are just like her model students.

Anyway, she resembles one of my teachers in bowen, ms leong po kam. They are both rather advanced in age, but there is something different. My former teacher have not married yet, the reason is for us to find out...

Went to Queentowns shopping mall today to buy a new shoes, as my old shoe is abit tight. Queentowns shopping mall, as i just know today, is a shoe paradise. As soon as you went in, you will be overpowered by the smell of new sports shoes... There are so many shoe shops and people that it is almost like a computer exibition at suntec city, except that they sell shoes... Spent alot of time choosing a shoe, since there are so many choices and so many shops, and after sometime, your eyes will just faint from all the colours and variety of shoes. I finally choose a good one, a nike in red, silver and black. Hopefully it can be accepted at my jc... (but who cares lol, when ppl are wearing shocking pink......)

I am watching The Day after Tomorrow now, and i guess that someday we will come to this fate too, if we do not put in effort to protect the earth or to think that the economy is more important than the environment... Let's not wait until it is too late to regrat...

Well, it had been 2 weeks since school started in a totally new environment. I had this feeling of being uncomfortable, but also at the same time excited about making new friends. Orientation was fun, as I felt that I had enjoyed myself totally. Although there had been criticism on our orientation, I feel that we should still appreciate their efforts in planning and organising the program for us. However, orientation ended off very quickly too, before I had even realised it. Following up was days and days of lectures, which was pretty boring and tiring to keep listening to those lecturers. One of which I dreaded most was of course General Paper lecture, which was also the factor determining if i would switch to a polytechnic education, the crucial question being if I am able to pull through the A levels. The rest of the subjects which are relatively managable, but GP... ... it sounds intimidating to me. I don't even have the confidence of passing it. Oh, i dread GP man... ... if only there was no General Paper... ...

its teachers' day today... but this year i din return to my primary sch... perhaps i'm juz to lazy or wad... morever, my frienz also decided not to go... so dampening my spirit lor... perhaps this is expected from ur class???

so long i haven been seeing my primary sch frienz... i wanted to see how much they hav changed... nvm, everytime i go there, it always seem so crowded and it is tough for me to go around searching for my teachers...

however, i feel that bowen is not such a bad school after all... bowen also has some good teachers... like ms suan and mrs ng... they realli know how to mingle wif their students... unlike mrs tan... so conservative...

2006-07-23T20:47:00.000+08:00

Technology has really advanced huh. Still remember in primary school, i was boasting about my zip disk (a disk that is super thick and can store more stuffs than a floppy disk). It can carry about 5mb to 10 mb of data if i am not wrong.... Then came the cd-rw (800mb), then came thumb drive(1gb) and the dvd-rw (45gb)... Time really flys huh...

Anyway, i recently got a letter from Trinity College Melbourne (you know, the place where i attended ctss on dec 05). The letter was about inviting me to "social gathering for parents...students...of our most recent Summer Schools students". What really catches my eye is that even the Australian High Commissioner is coming. There were also " a short presentation followed by cocktails..." Woa.... posh....

Oh yeah, it is held in Hilton Singapore. (o.0)

Kartik is going... Still thinking if i should go.... I am not that "high-class" you know...

hey, its only 112 days from O-levels now. i know to most pple, 112 days is not a big deal... we are still far far away from there... but as u know, time realli flies, and it does not wait for any man, even the US president George Bush. Trust me, start ur revision early... really...even if u only study 1 chpt a day...its better than nothing, u noe???

i believe that in ur life, u have seen many pple facing failures in their O-levels...let me tell u...even for my elder brother, he said that he can really do better, if only he himself put in hard work early... His friends, were the type who would ask him out for basketball, everyday after school he stays in school to play basketball...soon, he became like them and neglected his revision...he got 13pts for his prelims, passing eng but when it comes to O-levels, he got 18pts, and failed eng. He told me that he really regretted and shouldn't have followed his friends...

trust me, i'm not trying to harm u, start ur revision early so that we, will not have any regrets in life, ok??? pls, if we work hard together, and persue the As together, unity is strength, i believe we will eventually make it together...

PLS: DON'T HAVE ANY REGRETS IN LIFE.
