Ever tried making a promise and breaking it just an hour later? Looking at the time of this post should be an obvious reason. After getting back chem MCQ i decided that man, i should really buck up, it's now or never! No more ponning of lectures or skipping tutorials! That promise was broken in just 1 hour.
And i skipped maths lecture for a very stupid reason; i was lost for words when johnny asked me why i going home. Who on earth will believe i went home just to do laundry?! They will certainly laugh their asses out man! But the truth remains, no one is at home settling the mounting amount of laundry to be done. Dad went back to GH again to be under observation, which means i'm back to being a house-son again. Heavens is playing a joke on me man, the sky instantly turned dark as soon as i activated my washing machine. WTF!! Please please stop toying with my thoughts i really cannot take anymore cruel jokes like this...
Rewinding back, black hobbit ask me whether he should drop any subjects after getting back his physics, which wasnt really well-done. How am i going to answer? For the whole of 2005 i had to handle 4As, 2 AOs, 2 CCAs and a chaotic home, sometimes i really wonder how i managed to get by but i did it anyway... Dropping econs wasnt an easy choice, i had to carefully weigh the outcomes of it and thought about it for quite some time. 2 CCAs, which i irresponsibly dropped 1, werent that easy to balance too, especially with fitness. The choice is ultimately lying in your own hands; we all have to face whatever consequences bravely i guess...
Mdm lee scolded us for a good 37minutes during today tutorial, which started because our results as a class are poor. 1 thing i dont agree with her, so what if we are S72?! So what if we are the second best in Loy Fatt house, which is generally an unrecognised fact among students like us? S72 is just... well S72 right? Nobody thinks S72 as some special class or what, it's just another class that make up the numbers in LF house, that's all. All the talks about S71 being the best and S72 being second best can all be summarised into 1 word: crap... If we do not perform well the only people we let down are the ourselves, teachers (not including maths lecturers, they really sucked), our families and all the people who had faith on us doing well. For some, God. We dont let down the name of our class, damnit...
This morning finished the movie "Princess Mononoke" as a GP lesson, i must say it is a very damn nice movie. I think i can enjoy myself in GP lessons nowadays as the topic is Environmental issues, which has always been my strong point. My dream job is to be a famous environmentalist, a nature protector who spreads words about the importance of Mother Nature itself and the need to protect it. Like how Christians spread the word of God by travelling all around, i want to be like Steve Irwin or Jeff Corwin who are regulars in Animal Planet channel, putting their lives at risk to get near dangerous animals but yet stressing everytime the importance of conserving the environment. However the harsh truth remains: in a practical and pragmatic society like Singapore, you wont survive if you have dreams like these, 'cos in the end they will ultimately be worthless "day-dreams"...

so many days never touch this place, got abit cobwebs here and there, give me 3 minutes to clear it...
1 minute.....
2 minutes.....
3 minutes.....
Ok done! I start this thing proper... Uneventful is the word for these past few days. Dad discharged from hospital, looking quite tanned, as if he just spent 2 weeks at Siloso. Could be the effects of spending so long in the ward. Spent thurs and friday cleaning up the house alone, did almost everything except ironing clothes. I might as well go promote myself as part-time maid and earn some pocket-money, hmmm 1 hour $8 sounds cool to me haha...
Friday nite went parkway to meet up with ben, then go nite cycling recee with all the fitness people. Luckily the LCS never appear, if not i will purposely ram my bike against his motorbike and force him into the drain *evil laughters* Anyway my first time riding at night, adding to the fact that i not very good in cycling. Well, i just cannot stand while riding or cycle with 1 hand. Cannot stand means i have to ride through the bumps with my butt firmly at the seat = ultra pain, like a level 4 impale right at my ass. Cannot cycle with one hand means i cannot adjust my helmet while cycling = the helmet was practically resting on my forehead all night. We went from ECP to Punggol to Hougang to Kovan to Potong Pasir to Geylang Bahru to Esplanade Park, that's the forward journey. Return compromised of from Esplanade Park to National Stadium to Mountbatten road to Parkway Parade to ECP via underpass. Oh my what a long route i was practically a dead man walking at the end of it, not without my sore ass, father's day almost gone too...
Still got tuition that afternoon, so go sandy house seek refuge, since he lives so near to katong mall. His toe still in bad shape, so i encourage him go see doctor. I dont know whether it is a bad move or what, the visit ended up in operation of his big toe, now he gonna miss the big A'division soccer... Man i'm so sorry, dont give up yet you still have a chance for a return, ya? Believe it or not, i really understand you bud, reminds me of last year SA street soccer tournament where i dislocated my left wrist just before the actual event itself. Even though it is just a friendly tournament, i see it like how you see this A'division, damn shattered when i injured myself... Relax man...
Seems like all my friends around me are facing troubles after troubles.... Peace to all, peace to all...

Woah what a day it was! Damn fun lah, very long never enjoy so much, whew... But the day didnt start well, 'cos that stupid maths paper all the questions was like.. out of this world? It sent all the maths pros in my class sprawling on the ground foaming, poor elsa cried after the paper ended, see how difficult the paper was? Even the hardworking ones struggled, let alone a slacker like me....? Never mind, it's ok, don't worry i still went for class outing instead of brawling at home....
First we went PS food court for lunch. Guys separated from girls during the journey, but somehow we still met with each other at the food court -_- anyway also nothing much happened and then we ended up in monster cue playing pool. Man, all i can say is how unlucky i could be yesterday, missing not once or twice but ALL the simple shots lar!! Wakao I think i didnt even win one pool match yesterday... Wah cry lah cry T.T
After which all the guys walked super fast to cineleisure for kboxing. Marcel weijing and imran didnt join us, darryl went off at the entrance of cine and only 5 guys left: singer johnny-bapok, Jamin-wif-Ben, Benjamin-without-Ben, 'arsenal fan' punhon and last but not least, 'glass breaker' me hahaha... Turned out 4 girls joining us too, fidelis michelle serene n piak... Woooooo sounds fun and so we sang and sang for 5 hours straight, damn fun lar! Didnt know the girls can sing so well! i was surprised and in awe man.... Maybe sometimes the whole class should gather together to sing man... Now sore throat sia haha... Hmmm me yesterday attempted quite alot of jay chou songs, not really nice to hear but first time trying to rap the 'Ye4 Qu3', the hit song from November's Chopin, heehee quite sastified by it, must go improve and try 'Si4 Mian4 Chu3 Ge1', track no 6 in the album next time round... I wanna be a crapper without c man.... >:D
Went for dinner at cafe cartel, surprisingly the 3 guys waited for us for 5 hours, dont know why but they said they went hunting, for which i dont think it's appropriate to say it here haha... The food there is so much better than Fish and Co lah! Ate a crispy jumbo combo with another 4 guys until damn full, and later we go play a game where we had to clear the leftovers if one of us kena, you know that zhong ji mi ma game... I kena twice man! Ate a chicken wing and pork ribs, omg... Later johnny intro a game to us, which i knew too from a taiwanese variety show. We had so much fun man! Is must play with dies one... Hmm i got a lame harry potter game with a box containing six dies, maybe i should bring it to school and play hmmm haha..... The loser drink half a cup of water, woooo and serene (small one) drank like... 4 cups? haha serve u right for mocking me to be the next weijing haha *jk lar......peace lah peace*
Fun doesnt come cheap man, i think total expenditure for me is over 30 bugs... 30BUGS LEH!! CAN GO TOILET HOW MANY TIMES?! Never mind, it's ok, dont worry i must start saving up for the next class outing... haha ;)

3 papers over the past 2 days... tiresome stuffs man, just barely completed the chemistry paper not too long ago, definitely the hardest paper to date. Wth man section D all organic chem sia! Foolishly ignored organic chem and study the others instead. Imagine the shock i had when almost 50% of the paper is all, you guessed it, organic chem! If i'm lucky the last 10 mark question of section C i should be able to get full marks manx, IF i'm THAT lucky...
Physics on monday was surprising easy but i still struggled. Went home afterwards with a major headache at the back. It was the exact spot where i hit my head against a canoeing boat back in 2002, only went off after eating panadol and ice pack all around my head -__-
Lethargic man! tmw last paper maths, dont know vectors and complex numbers, chaam liao... hope tmw will be easy paper bah ^-^

Well, 2 more days to the block tests (i wonder why they are called block tests... are they meant for blockheads like me to wonder why...?) and haven't really finish studying, chaam... I really have that strong sense of deja vu while reading the lecture notes. It's like, "Hey!! i know that!! this concept is so bloody damn simple!!" and the moment you shut your notes it'll be some'sing like this, "Hey!! what the heck have i just gone through? it's not in my head now?! where is it, where is it?" :S
Ill for the past 2 days, got a sore throat. You know what the doc said? "Medicine for a viral infection to your throat..." C'mon it's just sore throat, but oh well i got an annoynomous bout of antibiotics to complete -_- then went to my grandma house to stay for a night. Staying overnight there for the first time in 2 years in my nursery of 15 long years (Maths question no.1: Hence or otherwise, how old am i now?) it sure does feel abit weird at first, but then the homely feeling sank in pretty fast. After all, it was my childhood well spent there. Well-fed (don't believe you can check my ez-link card, IF i agree to...) well-taken care of, i was quite a softie during my early years. But then i wasn't that picky and choosy and bossy, partly 'cos i grew up eating plain porridge for breakfast and lunch, a simple 3 dish-feast for dinner. Nowadays whenever i'm free to drop by she would always whip up alot of dishes, so much that most became the breakfast for the following morning. My mom always complain about me being high time to upgrade my standard of living. Oh gimme a break...
My grandparents especially my grandma are very simple people, probably that's why i'm so simple-minded now. I mean, why kill so many brain cells on trying so hard to make your life more sophisicated when you can't really understand life itself? Meaning to life, it's subjective. To some, life is all about surprises; life is all about friends and family and love. Me? Life is all about being simple and content with what you have; life is about cherishing every single person around you, be it friends or enemies although it is extremely hard to do as you grow up and become.... well less simple. Mankind is at its most simplest form during it's early years, the stage that is most susceptible to influence, which brings me to the next point.
If man are said to be responsible to put Earth onto the galaxy map, then man will ultimately also be the one removing it from the map. Wow, if i add a "Comment" behind, it will be the hardest GP question in A'levels, man... Lately reading the newspapers everyday is a chore, not due to laziness, but the negativities surrounding it and the fact that i cannot see the end to it. Avian flu, US war against terror, Iraqi state of chaos, Arroyo crisis in the Philipines, Thaksin's tenure on risk in Thailand, China-Taiwan's relations all-time low so on and so on... When can man ever learn? Seriously i couldn't see the purpose behind the chaos in those countries. What's the point of doing all these things when ultimately the one you are harming are your closed ones and not the intended targets? I don't know why the heck they flew that 2 planes into the towers, but it certainly kicked off the most expensive war to date. The changing of leadership of the countries is another stupid thing to do. All the protests, riots, anti-this anti-that, who are they harming in the end? The economies of their own countries, man! Taiwan and China, enough said. It's like a couple; when they are no longer in love, just let go lah for God's sake! As if you let go of this 1 tini whini woman all the women will zao until like nobody's business... CAn't man just work together for once and stop the flu before it wipe us all out?
Whoah, talk about training for my GP essay, hmmmm this time round must really pass this paper man... Sian tmw more housework awaiting for me, why cant i lead a life like most teenagers when they virtually have only about 20% share of housework for the whole month, and i'm expected much more? -_- seems like i becoming another professional whiner again... URGHH stretch stretch stretch must go back to mug now *pull long face* : - (

If there's one language i wanna learn, it will be bird language. Basket bloody hell, imagine the surprise i had when i opened my door to see a black shadow zoomed right across my face! Damn, it was just a bird, A BIRD mind you, wtf is it doing in my living room? I think 'bird-brained' is a correct adjective, that stupid bird went thrashing wildly across the living room, ramming itself against the four corners of the ceiling -_-" finally it got stuck between the window grills and the panel. No choice, have to use a bamboo stick to open the window to let it free. If only i know the bird language, i would have muttered all the vulgarities i've known to it, damnit....
Don't worry if you dunno what's the title about, neither do i. It is a lyrics translated to english of a song i'm listening right now, so ok loh since i cant think of any i just put this down. Whew, what an eventful past 5 days or so....
First up was my first ever announcement making for my CCA. Seriously i was thinking that i would cock up together with ben and get that WTF looks on everyone's faces but hey, things turned out to be that damn fine!! There were claps, there were laughters, there were praises from Ms Lee, even the fellow announcers also thought we were great. Haha that feeling was real shiok. Then came the CCA recruitment drive; admittedly it was the most energetic display i've ever put, even the spirits of SJ during CCA Maze were uncomparable on what happened on Friday. But i think i've made a clown out of myself, i mean what can everyone think of when they saw a lunatic running around with the loud-haler? But well, even though the pull-up competition didnt turn out fine, we still managed to get 44 entries for the drive. WooHoo!!
Rushed to MSHS for the camp. Also got nothing to do that night, except to settle down and looked at the cadets running around, i wished i could have contributed more but too bad... Another thing, i'm back as a PO (-__-) You know, it's like what the heck?! First i replaced someone, then i got replaced and now i have to replace again, walau what the hell i was feeling so so ! @ # $ % ^ & inside but i didnt show it on my face, as usual... MAC didnt went really smoothly in general, but judging on the amount of time we have to prepare and the small pool of manpower for the camp i think it can be considered a success. But you know, even though we had a small pool we still have officers who did nothing except to eat and sleep. I dont want to list a personal attack here, just that pls if you are intended to do that for the whole camp you might as well dont come instead of being sarcastic all the time, PLS!!! Anyway also didnt sleep alot for the camp, also cannot communicate well with the officers there. MAybe because i've decided to disappear after MAC since i couldnt really handle between 3 sides anymore, and that the sense of belonging in SJ has finally been lost.
Falling sick soon, havent really study... Chaam....
Don't worry if you dunno what's the title about, neither do i. It is a lyrics translated to english of a song i'm listening right now, so ok loh since i cant think of any i just put this down. Whew, what an eventful past 5 days or so....
First up was my first ever announcement making for my CCA. Seriously i was thinking that i would cock up together with ben and get that WTF looks on everyone's faces but hey, things turned out to be that damn fine!! There were claps, there were laughters, there were praises from Ms Lee, even the fellow announcers also thought we were great. Haha that feeling was real shiok. Then came the CCA recruitment drive; admittedly it was the most energetic display i've ever put, even the spirits of SJ during CCA Maze were uncomparable on what happened on Friday. But i think i've made a clown out of myself, i mean what can everyone think of when they saw a lunatic running around with the loud-haler? But well, even though the pull-up competition didnt turn out fine, we still managed to get 44 entries for the drive. WooHoo!!
Rushed to MSHS for the camp. Also got nothing to do that night, except to settle down and looked at the cadets running around, i wished i could have contributed more but too bad... Another thing, i'm back as a PO (-__-) You know, it's like what the heck?! First i replaced someone, then i got replaced and now i have to replace again, walau what the hell i was feeling so so ! @ # $ % ^ & inside but i didnt show it on my face, as usual... MAC didnt went really smoothly in general, but judging on the amount of time we have to prepare and the small pool of manpower for the camp i think it can be considered a success. But you know, even though we had a small pool we still have officers who did nothing except to eat and sleep. I dont want to list a personal attack here, just that pls if you are intended to do that for the whole camp you might as well dont come instead of being sarcastic all the time, PLS!!! Anyway also didnt sleep alot for the camp, also cannot communicate well with the officers there. MAybe because i've decided to disappear after MAC since i couldnt really handle between 3 sides anymore, and that the sense of belonging in SJ has finally been lost.
"Thanks for the memories, MSHS SJAB, you have been a major part of my life for the past 5 years, maybe when my troubles are sorted out i will be back..."
Falling sick soon, havent really study... Chaam....

Blogging for 1 more time before i go for my MAC tmw, hope it will be a successful one since i wasn't playing a huge role in it...
Actually first opened my eyes at 3.15am, 'cos punhon want me to call him in case he cannot wake up to watch his beloved arsenal match. Bloody hell, call him but phone busy, dont know why, then got knocked out due to sheer tiredness... Woke up again at 6.40am to shut my alarm clock, but i remember school at doorstep so i knocked out again... Whoah then woke up again in shock that it is 7.01am!! Basket, still not used to without dad waking me up for school. The moment i stepped out of my bed, shit, gastric worked up yet agian. Alamak, no choice had to drag myself to go wash up, lit some joss-sticks to the gods on behalf of my dad, then strolled to school as usual.
Junior meet senior session, didnt really talk much *as usual* 'cos still troubled by my sore gastric. After that watched jeremy and johnny played guitar, singed some songs on requests by serene kee and some other people. WOW darryl finally opened his golden mouth and sang boulevard of the broken dreams man! Not bad ar... Then came break after an ultra fast physics lecture. Ate chicken porridge with johnny 'cos gastric still not ok yet, but found our class occupying the round tables with no seats left, so sat together with fidelis serene n michelle and johnny. Didnt talk much as usual, dont know why though... Not that i dao or what, but just that today really got no much mood to pull any jokes or rabbits out of the hat. But then must say today timetable really damn sian, got 1 period break after every single lecture and tutorials. Ran out of energy after the physics practical, barely survived the chemistry tutorial. Suddenly i found myself so so so alienated from all the topics we learnt and are going to be tested for BT1, i really know nuts about it. Yet i still tried my best to answer questions from weijing n johnny, really hope i answered correctly, sorry guys...
After chem tutorial got really knocked out, laid down on my table and dozed off like nobody's business, gastric really killing me upside down... I think i turning into an owl soon, fully awake at night and damn sleepy at day. Maybe stress got hte better of me, i kept runnign out of energy pretty fast. No more 2.4km runs, i dont have that energy. Dunno how long i woke up, to find the class half empty and whole set of maths tys questions relevant to the BT1. Jam kept poking me with his finger, u ! @ # $ .... haha no lah joking only 'cos i also strangled him back, trying to make him tap out while punhon acted like his tag-team partner reaching out to be tagged. Jam's screamings + punhon "C'mon c'mon!!" + ben's "You know you have to reach the ropes" + my continuous hold to his neck and saying "Tap out tap out!!" = filming a movie?? HAHA another of serene quek's bimbotic action, really damn funny lah, wrestling can turn out to be a movie sia haha... Stayed back with ben to do the announcement thing, it's like walau eh cannot be lah tmw me and him are going to stand right in front of 900 pairs of eyes and present our booth manx!! Hope tmw turned out fine lah... CLose to six found jinyan joanne and michelle mugging, OMG lah pro-muggers!! Then suddenly remembered had to go down to SGH to visit dad, so didnt talk much and went off...
Few moments later i found myself on the escalator at Outram MRT towards SGH exit. That familiar route again... Basket doc say platelets dropped so must come back hospital inject more into his body, damnit as if we were damn rich to afford the hospital stays. Been trying my best to survive $20 a week but then when class fund payment comes half of them are gone... Haix how ar how? Really hoped he would discharged by this weekend, shave some stress off me... I dont know why but suddenly while walking up the day of the release of PW results appeared in my mind. Will it be a happy finale or a sad end? I've endured through the difficult periods of my life to finish the PW project with jinyan fidelis clarrissa, this results meant so so much to me manx,if it is a lousy result i dont know how am i going to go home manx....
Now finishing this entry, gotta go pack bag for MAC and sleep, gain some energy back for tmw....

Hung up the banner today at the bridge, i must say i'm damn impressed and proud of the way it stands out and the reactions from the people. They looked as if they were hit by a few cranium bashers *haha* stunned man, stunned... I will jump down the bridge if no one join, i swear with my backside at stack...
Lousy intro, no link to title, zero marks in terms of GP... but hey hey hey, this is no GP manx, it's my Boulevard of Broken Dreamz right... In life everyone face negativity from all aspects of everything, everything that don't go their way spoils their mood, they not happy, sink into depression, what everything around them can go wrong, cocked up... But in reality, at the end of the day it's really really up to you to decide whether you will be affected by them. I mean, no persons' lives are as smooth as... tao huay? Obstacles are really part and parcel of life, sometimes you are on a roll, sometimes you tumble and lay flat on the ground, panting and groaning. You feel like giving up, the temptations are there, but should you really scumble to this kind of pressure? I was faced with yet another familiar situation on Sunday. Just the previous day i was told i'm a platoon officer because someone couldn't be around during the camp this coming friday, the next day i was told i'm not needed anymore, 'cos there are replacements....
My heart sank. The replacement being replaced, what a joke... I know i'm useless enough, but to that extent? Ouch, that feeling really sucked. Really hoped i have what it takes to make a difference in SJ, but sadly i spurred the opportunity at sec3 as an OIC. My friend proved to be a even more worthy man for the job although he was just a squad I/C, right now he commands the most respect and greatest influence in SJ right now, a role model for both cadets and officers. Am i jealous? Not really, i was just so impressed and subdued at the same time. Maybe in this damn life i will never make it big again, or so i thought....
But on the other hand, after giving some more thoughts it deserved, i realised the decision made quite sense. First i wasn't proven to be that competent enough to handle 2 sections of 10 men each, if i were him i would do that too. Second i cannot be on time to enter the camp at 4+pm 'cos JC got a recruitment drive on that day too; the constant chops and changes to the entitlement of PO will confuse the trainees and disrupt the flow of the camp. Maybe someone who is more committed will do a better job. Third now i'm just an officer under training department, so got nothing much to do anyway, the most free officer in camp, got any small things to do, off i go... I was so determined i will not be affected that i didn't reply to the sms to rebutt and accepted the decision. As long as the camp passed smoothly, i'm ok with any appointments...
At the end of this year i was required to hand up the CIP hours thingy and CCA records. Well don't feel like putting in SJ, even though it had always been flowing in my veins for the past 5 years or so, but my contribution was nothing but minimum given the role and responsibility i had and wasted. Maybe in their views i was just another bochup officer who is so screwed up he bounded to fail anything he do, maybe i was viewed as a faggot who stinks like a maggot... I've never felt so distant from the fellow officers when i went back on Sat. Derek and i wasn't talking like the past, the rest talked as if a wall was in between us, except for Audric who was still rattling away like a machine gun. I wish i can contribute more, but can anyone understand the situation i'm in right now? Or am i just using it as an excuse?

Whoah for the 1st time i felt so accomplished after staying back for so late in SA. YOu know why? 1n 7 hours or so we managed to finish painting 40+ metres of cloth manx!! Altogether in 10+ hours we managed to do up a 50-metre long banner about Fitness, you know the feeling when you stare down from a height after spreading it out on the ground? It's sooo undescribleable. Today all Fitness members put in their best and most passionate efforts I've ever seen in doing the noticeboard and the banner. *err that thesman pms also counted as passionate?? uhhhh.... haha* Endured through a painful hamstring after pulling it yesterday PE, sore left wrist after doing gym due to past injury..... For the first time i've felt we have done some'sing any CCAs cannot match right now, that 50-metre banner... Seriously i don't care whether any suckers think it is crap or bitchy or ugly whatsoever, as long as it is filled with our utmost efforts placed on it, the 50-metre long banner will always be the most perfect in the eyes of Fitness people of 05/06!!
BTW....
Banner cloth: $150
Paint and brushes: $140++
Total cost for making that banner possible: $300++
Sense of achievement:
!!! PRICELESS !!!

Summary: never feel so damn pissed off and f***ing frustrated this year, it's like putting in damn lot of passion and hard work into something you like but all you get are rebuttals, cold blankets, f***ing adjectives that makes you wonder why must he say that. I dont care now whether the school will chase after for writing this but HEAR THIS U DAMN MOTHER F***ER STOP THINKING YOU ARE SOME GOD OR WHAT JUST GO SOMEWHERE AND ROT, PLS F***ING GET OUT OF MY SIGHT
