2006-12-18T07:43:00.000-08:00

oh! it's after yf camp and it's time for me to blog! :D (after some prompting from alicia. heh) anyway! yf camp was superb! i wish i went for yf when i was p6 and then for the susequent yf camps. goodness! it's just so fun there. plus i believe if i did attend more of such camps and was exposed to more of the Word, i would be a more faithful Christian and such.

although, i am still grateful for the camp! i've got to know new people, and to get to know better the people i already knew. plus i also discovered more about myself i'd say. discovered i can't be excessively enthusiastic. i won't elaborate on it though. and i really like how sam kwan is like ... he's nice to talk to and he's like an encyclopedia and you can really just extract information from him, and clear some of your doubts. plus he's just a really nice guy! and i really love the carer/caree system. really makes you feel like someone really cares for you during the camp! i really thank God that i got someone i knew, so i guess it was more fun! plus i knew my caree as well! fun fun.

anyway, that's all i have to say for now. it's late, i'm tired, floorball tomorrow! must .. .exercise ... must not ... get fat. so yah. bye!

ni hao!

played floorball and frisbee today! glad that i exercised since who knows when. floorball was super fun, as it always is. and the girls today were absolutely pro-ness! jasmine 2 goals, joy 1 goal and julia 1 goal. i think jasmine scores practically every week man! plus last week serene scored too. haha! and people still call her auntie and everything :P speaking of serene, i just remembered that we (serene, jasmine, charmaine and i) were supposed to go jogging yesterday after yf! but ... the rain spoilt it all. ohhwell. another day then. but then i'll be pretty busy for the next few weeks. i've got 60 hours of CIP to accumulate. heh. i wish i didn't need all that CIP hours. then i'd be able to enjoy the holidays more! :D

2006-10-25T02:59:00.000-07:00

man ... today the rain was madness. got drenched just from walking home. now my shoes are soaked. gross. well, at least the haze is better. hope it'll be gone soon.

anyway, today i had EOYA - end of year activites. it was fencing. totally fun. holding a sword is actually very empowering. haha! but no lah, it's just really fun. but it's pretty technical and requires some thigh muscle endurance. the lunges are fun too! but it's a pity we didn't get the chance to fence with each other. just training, like teaching us the basics. tomorrow we'll get to fence! can't wait!

for now, see ya...

wet games!

2006-10-22T16:10:00.000-07:00

wet games ROCKED! D' AH BENGS rocked more!! :D with me inside of course ;) and i've decided that i like the feeling of getting wet. so many thanks to those who bombed me :D AND, i've concluded too that jerry canNOT aim for nuts! one water bomb zoomed in front of me, and the other behind me, and then he gave the excuse that i'm too skinny!! HAHA.

and someone dumped a pail of water on me. i still havent figured out who it was :/ how blur i can get.

yw worship went okay today! thank God i wasnt nervous :) which is rare of course. and unexpected, seeing how stressed i was yesterday over having to play piano two days in a row! :P

anyone wants to join the Jo-aye flan crup? :D

my first sub :D

2006-10-21T07:08:00.000-07:00

today, i had my first sub! :D it was pretty good, but i couldn't finish it :S in the end, gave 3-foot of it to danny. heh. i guess i shouldn't have gotten the footlong. but i thought i was hungry. but the ice lemon tea made me pretty full. ohwell. and i didn't get to eat the 2 cookies. haha. gave it to my cousin. i hope she liked it :D

anyway, today for yf, we had wet games! haha. got super wet. ohhwell. hahaha. super fun. but our 'flag' (tree's) was like completely destroyed. and then there was one game where we had to spin roung and roung on a stick and then try to reduce a piece of soap to pulp. the soap smelled funny, but in a good way. it smelled really sterile and clean. chlorophyll soap or something. haha!

after that, joy, kinyip, terence, wilfred, michelle, my sister and i played volleyball. it was fun i guess. but my volleyball is crap :( i guess practice, practice, practice is the key. after that, wilfred, joy, danny, julia and jiayao played floorball. wanted to play and julia invited me but i had to go. ohhwell.

went to j8 afterwards to get a cd my sister wanted. some john mayor thing. it's supposed to be very nice. but my sister said it's "not as acoustic-y, more of the blues". haven't listened to it yet, wonder what i'll think about it.

bored again

2006-10-17T07:40:00.000-07:00

i'm utterly surprised. i'm 71% feminine, 29% masculine. you do the math :

This is based on how you scored on a variety of traits that, founded on classic research and our own studies, are typically associated with women.

You're also 29% masculine, which is based on how you scored on traits that are typically associated with men. When we compare your results with other men it shows that you are somewhat more feminine than other men.

-charles

bored :D

2006-10-17T07:05:00.000-07:00

hey! i am really bored nowadays. so ... i shall spend some time going quizzes for fun. here's one

what's my type:

your type is the girl next door

Cute, fun, and sweet, your ideal gal is just a stone's throw away — she's the Girl Next Door. She's Sandra Bullock, Doris Day, and Meg Ryan all rolled up into one. Naturally pretty rather than glamorous, she's unpretentious and generous. She loves animals and children, and is great with both. You're attracted to her strong values and traditional ways. Although she demands a lot of respect, she's not particularly high-maintenance. Her ideal date is more likely to be dinner and a movie than heading out for a night on the town. She's careful yet spontaneous — a little bit of the Guy's Girl, a smidge of Sorority Sister (the nice kind), and just a hint of the Hippie Chick. But she's got an appeal that's all her own, which is why you can't stay away. Her winning smile, bright eyes, and loving nature make you want to hold on tight and never let go.

back to school

2006-09-12T03:51:00.000-07:00

it's the 2nd day of school of term 4 and it somehow feels like i never left. going along with the lessons, trying to listen during classes, struggling through the tests and suffering from sleep deprivation. i'm really sleepy but i can't take naps, or i will waste my entire afternoon away. i guess there is something to rejoice about though, the last day of school for the year is coming! about 5 more weeks? well, it seems quite some time away, but it certianly is much closer than before. i wonder what i'll do during the holidays. if i'm not wrong, some people's birthdays are during the holidays. and holidays being more relaxed and leisurely, perhaps birthdays wouldnt just be a gift. perhaps there will be some time to go out etc.

well, that reminds me. today is danny's birthday is it not? anyway, happy birthday danny! God bless.

hmm, i'd best get back to doing my work now. tests around the corner. and the end of years looming. i can relax later. oh yes, thanks msn for fixing the glitch thingy. almost died of boredem yesterday when i couldnt get on. :S i rely too much on msn. sigh. bad bad.

farewell, holidays :D

2006-09-08T22:00:00.000-07:00

its friday.. and the hols are almost over!! i spent most of my time mugging at home.. besides once when i went out with my mum, and another time when i helped cindy with some program, and then went for project work at KAP :) as for charles, he spent most of his time mugging in church with the rest of them! how nice :D alicia.. she just came back from obs!! apparently she has 136 mosquito bites! thats A LOT. coz i didnt get a single one when i went :P

well anyway! thank God for the nice rest we all had :) im sure we enjoyed it yeah?

what do you know?

Jonathan Barnes
Aristotle -- A Very Short Introduction

One thing, however, can be said with reasonable confidence: throughout his life Aristotle was driven by one overmastering desire - the desire for knowledge. His whole career and his every known actvity testify to that fact: he was concerned before all else to promote the discovery of truth and to increase the sum of human knowledge.

He did not think himself singular in possessing such a desire, even if he pursued his object with a singular devotion; for he affirmed that 'all men by nature desire to know', and he claimed that each one of us is, most properly speaking, to be indetified with his mind, so that life - a fully human life - is 'the activity of the mind'. In an early work, the Protrepticus or Exhortation to Philosophy, Aristotle announced that 'the acquisition of wisdom is pleasent; all men feel at home in philosophy and wish to spend time on it. leaving all other things aside.' The word 'philosophy' designates, etymologically, the love of wisdom; and a philosopher, in Aristotle's book, is not a cloistered academic engaged in remote and abstract speculation - he is someone who searches for 'knowledge of things human and divine'

i dont know much, but i know for a fact that i know too little. it is time to work more, play less.

2006-09-04T05:19:00.000-07:00

the holidays have begun! oh joy! time to study in church. study study study.

the first day of the september holidays seemed quite bleak but things turned out to be quite okay. i was supposed to have extra lesson from 8am to 4pm. but short fuses and tempremental teachers made things just go by a little faster. with a little push and shove from us once in a while :D

our supposed schedule for today was
8am - 10am -- chinese
10am - 12am -- physics
12am - 2pm -- biology
2pm - 4pm -- chemistry

the aforementioned are extra lessons. but the lessons were slightly more interesting than i expected. first of all, chinese seemed to pass pretty fast. i guess it was because of all the rubbish we were talking about.

for physics, lessons only lasted for about 45mins. it seems we were talking too much and so our teacher decided to walk out on us. so what did we do before our next lesson? well, we took the opportunity to go grab some lunch since there wouldnt be another break. while eating, guess who dropped by! our beloved physics teacher. and he said "look, they arent even interested in studying". bleah.

after lunch, it was back to lessons. we had biology. this time, our teacher lasted longer. she walked out 15mins before her 2hour lesson was over. not bad not bad. but i was rather disappointed with her abrupt exit especially since she did not express her disapproval with our behavior throughout her entire lesson. she just decided to walk out when she felt she had too much. my class was left wondering about what we had done to cause her to leave. but the worst thing was the fact that she didnt manage to finish teaching. and it is biology! we're sooo lacking in information. the lack of knowledge coupled with the teacher's bias against your class assures you a bad grade.

after biology, it was chemistry! the last class of the day! was super happy. chemistry passed surprisingly fast. i guess we were more coorperative as well. oh! and joy called in the midst of the lesson. sorry i couldnt pick up :( anywayt, as usual our chemistry teacher ended early. so in the end classes ended at around 2.45pm. wonderful is it not? classes ended 1hour 15mins beforehand :D

anyway, i decided to go down to church after that. wonderful. met megan, joy, job, job's friend and sandra there. ella, janice, dawn and my sister was there too. megan, job, joy and i went around to room 2-06 to play piano. well, joy played. job and i sang and danced to some of the songs. fun! :D

went back to the bgst room and had a nice chat with joy. it was nice, fruitful to some extent. we should do it more often. :D

who can make it for cycling on this wednesday afternoon? please tell me asap. everyone's invited. :D

home alone 4

2006-09-01T21:30:00.000-07:00

its teachers day today! so happy teachers day to my dear mentor serene! :D and to charles too, my eng teacher :P

i declare that alicia and charles and megan were plain mean today :( i smsed all three of them in the morning asking them what their plans were for today, and the two bimbos said "i dont know" and charles said he was going church. and after that no one told me that ALL THREE of them were going to church! :( humph. so i was stuck home alone, having nothing to do. and thinking all the while that the bimbos were stuck at home too. EVIL PEOPLE! all it needed was ONE sms! but i didnt get any D: what a boring day..

haha.. it wasnt that bad actually. i watched a lot of tv, which i havent done in a long while. shiok! and coz i was complaining to my mum in the morning that i had nothing to do, she brought me out to buy ice cream!! HAHA yayy :D whining does work sometimes ;)

its the start of the holidays! charles wants to go cycling. but sher says it's expensive and she wants to crash alicias house and watch high school musical instead! okay decide :) DO NOT forget to ask me along this time!

Joey :D

holiday mood (:

2006-08-27T20:53:00.000-07:00

good day to one and all! the holidays are here! okay... so there are still 4 days more. but that's bearable i guess. man... who am i trying to kid! 4 days is too long! so near yet so far... to make things worse, i've got 2 tests. sigh. i'm in no mood to study! no mood at all. although, the irony of it all is, i am looking forward to studying in church during the september holidays. and not forgetting, cycling!! :D

teacher's day this friday! so... you'll probably have a half day on thursday and a school holiday on friday :D 3 days of school! much to look forward to. most of us would have 3 days of school, but alicia will only have one day if i'm not wrong. lucky girl. having fun and shopping in thailand while joey and i have tests. i've got mathematics and chemistry. joey has philosophy and lit. hmm ... joey, could you lend me some of your philosophy notes during the september holidays? i'd like to read them. philosophy sounds interesting :D

anyway, i've got a mathematics test tomorrow and i'd better get back to study. pfft. ohwell. i shall have to go fulfill my obligation. oh wait. then again, studying is no obligation. i could always choose not to study and go sit for the test. i wonder how that would be. but i think my conscience would kill me. toodles.

pics :)

2006-08-26T21:40:00.000-07:00

those pics were taken during the labrador park outing last week! :D alicia and i succeeded and getting charles to take decent photos ;) theres actually another COOL pic of me pouting.. but sher cant find it!! so .. too bad :D

and once again, alicias in thailand! maybe it'll be a trend, that whenever alicia goes overseas i'll blog! so shoo alicia! go overseas more :D lol.. kidding! so apparently, shes staying in some super nice 5-star hotel? not fair! never mind, make sure you get the shirts and that'll make up for it! haha. and btw, all the best to alicia for the rest of her runs! :)

yf this week.. was ARMY DAY! charles and i were late, coz i had an awana rehearsal at bishan.. and it ended slightly before 245. so by the time we walked out, took 73, and walked in, it was really late. we missed BOTH worship and the skit! :( oh well. the two of us decided to run in from serangoon central instead of walking coz we figured it was less tiring :D so anyway, when we got to chapel 1, they split us into 3 groups (or whatever its called!). i was with megan! no idea who charles was with. for me, the first station was moses'. and he very nicely got some people to volunteer themselves to put "makeup" on their faces!! just in the army style. :P as expected, megan and i refused to let them touch our faces even though dear christl kept volunteering me! in the end, she got volunteered by the rest of us! :P and terence very kindly drew "NICE STUFF" on her face (which was supposed to make her look better btw) .. and she looked like a guy after that! charles didnt draw anything on his face! not fun :( we were kinda hoping you would.. haha.

second station, kenji and linus'. they shared about their lifes in army.. sounded pretty much interesting! i bet charles is super looking forward to it now :D

third station! some weird game thingy. i cant remember what its called though. they taught us what the soldiers would do in a certain circumstance.. and we were supposed to try it out! LOL. but they said our group was the worst group ever! HUMPH! just coz we had the most girls :( haha. but a lot of us "died" coz we were walking freely without even attempting to hide! our "enemy" threw a grenade at danny. and danny just picked it up and threw it towards US. WOW! i think he'll fair really well in army next time. great ideas ;) after that, the real army guys demo-ed the actual thing to us. at one point, one of them banged a chair and all the phones on it dropped! and the girls all started screaming.. so we figured, girls can go to war. coz all we have to do is run around and say "bang bang bang". BUT, our phone must NEVER drop. if not we'll start screaming and the enemy will find us! :D

oh yeah! alicia! megan and sher and i want to have a sleepover at megans house after OUR exams! :D set? sorry charles, i dont think you can come. unless you want to sleep with megans little bro! aha. OH YEAH! lets go to the zoo too :D visit my relatives! :D

yay i've posted. now charles cant complain :P

anyway! i think the new blog layouts really cool! all the way alicia :)

thank God it's friday! the school week is finally over and it is time for a break. need sleep ....

anyway, this coming week, i have a pretty slack week of school. sabbaticals! woo! brilliant. one week of "pursuing your passion". haha. i chose some 'deconstructing the world' course. i managed to get out of the "basic guitar" course. heh :D well, i guess "basic guitar" would have been good too. i mean, its like picking up an instrument. how often do you get the chance and the time to do such things? but i guess what turned me off was the price tag latched on to the course - $50. shocking, no? but then again, it is an opportunity lost.

anyway, today, the track and field exco was revealed! and by God's grace, i was priveleged enough to get a post! javelin captain! woo! its not really a high ranking position, but its something :D ohoh! that reminds me! we had this c.i.p. briefing today as well. please purchase a $2 bookmark from me please :D come on, it's for a good cause :D help boy's town! Boys' Town Singapore is a unique Catholic Institution dedicated to providing guidance, shelter, education, vocational training and practical living skills to youths. They care for orphans, the poor, the neglected and those who find themselves in various states of difficulties. :D

today's training was a little different. we had training, old-skool style! it sounds really fun doesnt it? haha. it wasnt. XD all of us throwers practically died! running up and down terraces, push ups, crunches, superman etc. that was pretty fun actually, but what came after was killer. haha. we had inclined push ups on the terraces. we only did 50 actually. but our coach had to do it soooooo slowly. make us hold there for so long. grr. blisters and cramps. haha. then we slow-jogged 2 rounds around the track. we all starting cramping along the way! super funny. we were comparing who cramped where during the 2 rounds. i got almost-cramps at my calves and thighs! super funny. looking on the bright side, i'll ache tomorrow! how wonderful :D dont you just like lactic acid?

oh! and it seems that i meet lizards really often. they just seem to be all over the place. and they always drop from the walls or ceilings when i'm around. do lizards usually drop like that? today i was totally freaked out can? when i reached home and was taking off my shoes, this lizard dropped in front of my face! like ... what are the chances!!

anyway, i'm going off now! going to write letters. i owe some people letters for qutie some time. sorry!

5478th day of my life

Grandmama, Mummy, My dearest sisters, Alicia, Joey, Megan, Shermaine & Samantha, Charlene, Poojaa

My dearest cousin:
Mister Job Ang

The man with the egg tarts:
Daryl Yap

Thanks for the birthday well-wishes! :D

well well, it certainly has been a long long time since any one of us blogged. anyway, for the benefit of those who do not know, alicia was away from the 6th to the 12th of August. she went for some thailand games thing. and after that, she became super tan, even sunburnt, and lost her voice! according to joey, alicia had a sexy voice XD alicia managed to make it for yf on the 12th of August but i didnt know until the food contest. since sandra, samantha and i were having lunch. :S dont get me wrong, i'm not proud of it. should have eaten earlier!! ahh!! but what's done is done. shouldnt have missed worship ...

by the time we reached back, the various groups were moving to their various stations to play various games. the first game we played was "police and thief". very enjoyable, reliving my younger days. but it isnt advisable to play "police and thief" without slippers. you get nice little blisters.

after "police and thief", it was some soccer game thing. it was a variation of it. the rules of soccer still applied i.e. hands cannot touch the ball etc. but the scoring system was different. instead of kicking the ball into a goal, you had to stop the ball on the line to score points. the rules at first were pretty confusing but they were soon abandoned due to misunderstandings and stuff. but it was really fun and funny! i must say, sarah is a really good ball-stopper-lady. XD

moving along, we had a food contest! and the food contest was very interesting. an assortment of food ranging from watermelons to raw onions was up on the menu. i must say, the onion tasted quite horrid. its is somewhat similar to wasabi? that funny feeling you have in your face after you eat it :S but downing it with pepsi seemed to do the trick. with a combined effort, the one half of omega-ians managed to finish it! the 2nd worst would have to be the biscuits. my my, were they extremely dry and dehydrating! plus by the time we got to the biscuits, most, if not all the pepsi was gone! the fruits were the best. green apples and watermelon. the onion and biscuits were quite a challenge but no one really knew who finished first. since all of us were passing the biscuits around. we're all cheaters XD

there was chuch the next day and school started again after that. the school days have passed pretty quickly and i'm pretty grateful for that. i want the weekends to come!!!!

anyway, thank God that i was able to enjoy my birthday in peace, with all my tests behind me! i decided to set aside today for a time of rest. so i decided to go down to church to "study" with samantha, shermaine and jerry. i'm quite surprised that i got some work done. thanks to samantha and shermaine. jerry was surprisingly quiet today. sang a little, but not as much as during the study sessions during the national day holiday. oh! that jerry! he ambushed and pounced on me at zone 7! the nerve of that guy! hahaha. see samantha! i told you i needed you to follow me and protect me in case someone tried to attack me. aunty grace was at chuch today, and gave us biscuits! but we couldnt finish. haha. so sad, shermaine was trying to finish them i think. i tried to eat a little but i was full! so couldnt eat that much biscuits. jerry said something about eating them for dinner though. perhaps he did.

later that night, daryl came over! he brought along nice little egg tarts and "char siew sou". did i get that right? my sister and i had a nice little chat with him but were constantly interrupted by the smell of cat poop! mymy, it was smelly! dont know why it was so strong though. daryl advised us to finish it in 24 hours and eat the egg tarts chilled cause they would be nicer. and the char siew sou had to be oven toasted for about 5 minutes. well, i guess we should follow him. he's the one who knows about food. he bakes a mean cheesecake! yummy! i wish i could bake like him. speaking of which, i am planning to learn how to cook/bake. it'd be fun dont you think? being able to whip up whatever meal you want, whenever you feel like it. :D

anyway, its pretty late. and i'd better get going. oh darn. didnt get to write my letters today. nevermind! i shall try to write them another time, when i'm not in an almost semi-conscious state!

with my tests over for now, (i've got tests in about 2 week's time) i shall try to blog more often. hopefully.

nostalgia

2006-07-30T15:40:00.000-07:00

dont know what compelled me to read all the old posts but i did anyway. i must say, i enjoyed it very much. had a few laughs. good times, good times. :D

i guess my resolution wasnt as successful as i had hoped. so much for frequent posts and such. anyway, for some reason, our blog display has changed. none of us modified it in anyway though. a hacker perhaps? or perhaps just a glitch. no decision has been made yet concerning the blog display. whether we should change it back or leave it as it is? i'd preferably like it to be returned to its former glory. along with alicia's blogging talents showcased, and joey's favourite pink buttons xD although the decision will be made amongst the three of us, but the actual html modifications will have to be done by alica. afterall, joey and i are computer or more specifically blogger illiterate. although, it wouldnt be too nice to have alicia re-do the blog display. if i remember correctly, it took her quite some time the last time? i guess joey and i will help out in anyway we can. :D

yf on the 29th of July was held at East Coast! marvellous place. nice breeze and scenery. first thing we did upon arrival at East Coast was to settle down and have a time of worship. oh yes, thanks julia for the chocolate! :D we played "Rounders" after worhsip and it was mighty fun! :D for the benefit of those who do not know what is "Rounders", it is like a simpler version of softball? during that time, peter, kennethfong, charmaine, jasmine, megan and i climbed up this little tree. okay, so it wasnt so little. but it has a nice long branch for us to sit on :D after "Rounders", we were given free-time to do anything and everthing we wanted! some took to the beach to either swim or just play in the water. some sat along the beach with good friends and had nice long chats. some played soccer, volleyball or frisbee. some cycled and others roller-bladed. ohoh! and we managed to see the Singapore flag hung on the helicopter thingys! 3 of them infact! haha. okay lah, the flags werent that interesting. but its not everyday that you get to see them. xD we left Easy Coast for Church at about 6.40pm?

what a pity! my two blog-mates werent able to make it for yf at East Coast! joey was declared too ill and alicia had to go for open-house! alicia's purpose for going to the open-house thingy was for c.i.p.! and it was discovered later that night that she actually did not require those c.i.p. hours! haha. she should have amassed enough c.i.p. hours from Camp Aflame 2006 but she didnt know about the c.i.p. thing. what a shame. haha. ohwell, look on the bright side alicia! you got to spend time with your dear cousin melissa!

we reached church about 20minutes after we left East Coast park? alicia and melissa then joined us soon after. that was where i discovered melissa wanted to join Singapore Sports School! it's not like i have anything against it. but i just dont think it is a very good idea? i mean unless you are planning to pursue a sports career in the furture, Singapore Sports School wouldnt be the best place for you. (no offense to any pro Singapore Sports School people. no instigation or provocation was intended.) so what do you all think? feel free to comment :D

shawn, megan, melissa, alicia and i left for dinner earlier than the other yf people as megan and alicia were hungry. we spent like forever roaming around j8! haha. we just couldnt decide where to eat. in the end, S11 was the place for us. haha. that was where alicia was cheated of imaginary green tea! so mean! how could they trick us innocent little kids? :P

only shawn and i had dinner at S11. megan da-paoed and left for home. (pang-seh us! :P) alicia and melissa decided not to have dinner at S11. melissa claimed that she had ate a wide wide, VERY WIDE assortment of food before dinner. i forgot the stuff she supposedly ate though (x alicia decided not to eat S11 as her prawn noodle stall thing was closed. so she decided to eat instant noodles later at home instead. shawn, melissa, alicia and i being once-trackers, aspiring trackers or trackers, had nice dinner conversations ranging from the pure random to track-related stuff. although melissa and alicia didnt eat, they still kept shawn and i company. very nice no? :D

all things have to come to an end and that was no exception. it was late and had to make a move. the majority of the dinner-eating yf people left for i-dont-know-where after dinner. coincidentally, that was the same time my dad came to pick my sister and i up. it was there that we went our separate ways.

oh! i have just recieved an sms from joey to include details of how she is suffering in school. her school ends at 4.30pm! :S that's really really long. to make things worse, she's ill and therefore has no training to look forward to. what a packed day indeed, especially for an ill girl.

anyway, i will have to stop here. i have a biology test to study for! haha. i'd better get started or i'm going to fail tomorrow xD bye all!

long overdue.

okay! sorry for not posting. i think i assumed a long post once in a while would suffice. but i guess not. shall try to make it a point to blog often. actually, quite a lot of things have happened in the past few weeks. that includes the entire june holidays though. in retrospect, there were one million and one opportunities to blog about stuff. they may perhaps seem insignificant, but they could be amusing to some. so yah, shall try to post more often.

today there was cycling! alicia, hannah, job, joey, megan, shermaine and i went to bishan park to cycle. did i miss out anyone? never right? i hope not (x anyway, job came to my home this morning. he wanted to play piano. he commented that my home could absorb the sound very well and he like the acoustic-ness of it. i dont know what that means but he likes it. so let it be. :D

job and i have lunch at my home and left for j8 at 2.40 eventhough we were suppsoed to meet at j8 at 2.45!! and i specifically stated that we should be punctual. oops! my bad (x but thank God lah. like we were walking walking then we saw the 156 bus come. so we ran like mad dogs! managed to get on the bus so we werent so late. although, when we reached the bus stop opposite j8, hannah had already reached j8. so i guess we were theoretically late. but! surprise surprise! we werent the latest people. there were other people later than us! but if you want to get technical about it, all of us were late. by the time we set off for bishan park, it was 3pm already. a little behind schedule.

and oh! samantha was there too. but she didnt go cycling with us. when i saw her with shermaine at j8 i thought she was going along! more the merrier! then she decided to go shopping. horrible girl haha. we tried to stop her though. thwarted her initial plans. managed to drag her quite a reasonable distance before our defences slacked off a little and she escaped. ohwells. its her loss. or at least i'd like to think of it that way (x it was really funny watching megan, hannah and alicia trying to desuade samantha from leaving and literally dragging her along. although, miss shermaine just stood by and watched the happenings unravel. never help her sister some more. haha :P

we continued our walk to bishan park. and boy! was it a long walk. i wonder who's great idea it was to walk there instead of taking bus :P although i went to bishan park during the june holidays, i forgot how far in the rental shop was! walked and walked and walked. but it was good exercise i suppose. heh.

rental rental. it wasnt as cheap as i would have liked. either $6 or $8 for a bike for an hour, and $3 and $4 respectively for every subsequent hour. although, i have to commend the retal shop owner. her marketting skills werent half bad. she pushed for us to rent the $8 bikes. who wouldnt try to convince their customers for more profit eh? haha. after picking our bikes and getting everything settled it was already 3.45 pretty late already. and megan! you're the best first-time-cyclist i've seen in my life! first time you've ever touched a bike and you could cycle as well as job! perhaps even better. plus job had prior lessons haha. yeah. so good job on your cycling. first class!

the first hour practically flew by. just riding here and there, enjoying the breeze, sights and sounds. beautiful. nice break from hectic school life :D although, my bike kept giving me trouble. i suspect it was due to my poor knowledge of using the different gears. but ohwell. after changing the bike twice i think, it worked like a charm. at 4.45 we rode to the bishan park bus stop to welcome miss joey. at that time, the welcoming committee was listening to megan's palm reading theories. about how if some funny line was more curvy, your spouse would be better looking etc. haha! and then joey rode back with job, alicia and hannah with individual bikes while megan, shermaine and i figured out how to transport 3 people back to the rental shop with the 2 remaining bikes (x we finally managed to. but it wasnt a pretty sight. trust me. i had to side sadle someone. dont ask who! but the side sadling was fun lah. 2 people cyclnig without a tandem bike. that's pretty darn good if i do say so myself! haha. my side sadler kept laughing lah! plus she commented that it was super scary due to my lousy skills. haha

after we were all gathered back at the rental shop, and joey rented her bike, we set off once again to enjoy a good time of cycling. we cycled for awhile and decided to be ambitious and cycle to the other part of bishan park. the one where you had to cross the road. yeah. that one. there, the most unfortunate of unfortunate events occurred! megan fell down and injured herself. well, here's the story. i was cycling by and she was cycling down an adjacent slope thingy. i heard her scream, i stopped to let her pass. but i think i stopped too near to the centre of the road. and i got my just desserts. megan crashed into me! all my fault man. then she kena injured cause of my poor judgement.

it was then that alicia said to job that it was a wonder how job got himself into soooo many accidents but yet none of them had landed him a wound. perhaps scratches but nothing prenetrating the epithelial surface. back to megan. so, there she lay on the floor with her knees grazed and covered in oil. poor megan! she was commenting on the white spots in her wounds when i publically wondered if it was the bone. got laughed at for my stupidity but ohwells hahaha! laughter is the best medicine anyway (x joey and alicia and hannah tended to her needs while shermaine, job and i watched in etched horror. i was still wondering what if the white spots were actually bone (x while joey and hannah and alicia were being all doctor/paramedic/ER on megan, i could only be a not-too-useful back rest. oh! forgot to thank the passer-by jogger who rendered assistance to us by providing a pack of well-received tissue papers which was used to clean her wound.

seeing as we were short of basic supplies such as water to wash the wound, plaster etc alicia and shermaine went to the nearest source. this being the petrol kiosk at the other side of the road. the took quite some time though. but the returned soon enough with the supplies, along with green tea, smarties, cookies and more haha. ;P with the help of our new arsenal of water, we washed megan's wound and cleaned it up with more tissue paper. some of us also took the opportunity to replenish the water we lost and water our parched throats. after being tended to by the 3 expert make-shift medical officers alicia, joey and hananh, megan was back on her feet, although limping. we were skeptical about her ability to cycle back but that girl! she's a fighter i tell ya! still managed to cycle back to the other part of bishan park with a damaged knee. joey susggested that we pray before we left and there was unanimous agreement. although, if i am not wrong, we left without doing so. absentminded creatures we are. we certainly should have though. or perhaps they did in my absence when i went to look for shermaine and alicia at the kiosk.

was contemplating the rental costs on the wat back to the rental shop. especially since we over shot our time. was thinking about bargaining with the rental shop owner but didnt have to in the end. the lady was nice enough to chrage accordingly, to the time we spent with the bikes instead of the usual hourly surcharge cost!

lazed around for awhile, chatting about stuff which i cant recall at the moment. we then left for j8 where some of us had dinner. the walk to j8 was littered and punctuated with giggling laughter and much mirth. what about i do not know. i wonder, would the 5 ladies care to share? anyway, the venue for dinner was at macs where i did some of shermaine's mathematics. of all the subjects she's asked me about, i think this was the only one which i was of any use. she tried asking me about chinese before. what a great help i was. heh (x macs was also the place where 4 mischievous ladies sent scandalous messages with my phone. you know who you all are! hahaha (x but no harm done. was rather amusing actually. especially hannah's blunder regarding the unsuccessful deletion of a sent message :P

well that's about it for my youth's day. a rather pleasent one in fact. one filled with fun, laughter peace and joy. a time to forget about wordly troubles and just relax. thanks for all who were a part of it! :D ohhlala! look at the time. it's back to school tomorrow. a rather short break, but long weekend. thank God for this time of rest.

my my, its been a long time since i've posted. i almost forgot the username and password to log in! oops. but then again, that is partly due to my stm.

i have to thank the 2006 GE for giving me a school holiday tomorrow! no worries, your school will probably be having one soon, its just a matter of time :D i plan to go down to church tomorrow and study with Jobang. i've got tons to do. and Jobang, you'd better not pangseh me!

this thursday is my school's sports day! yay! it must as well be a holiday. although, there are some interesting events. especially javelin. O.o no, i am not being biased just because i am in javelin. have you seen a javelin fly 55 metres? i bet not! my schoolmates are in for a treat.

although, i have to go for a medical check-up during the events. for scoliosis. i am hoping that my scoliosis is bad enough to get me downgraded when in army. haha. i sooo wanna be a clerk.

i have ProEd Nite on thursday night. soo not looking forward to it. i was sabo-ed by my class to perform on that night. some lame dance. oh well, i shall be sporting and go make a fool of myself for the fun of it. but no pictures please. please do not cause me to re-live that humiliating moment.

oh yes, miss Joey Tay has a handphone now. i shall advertise for it. her number is 93620847. i think. did i get that right Joey? she has 1000 free sms-es, so please feel free to send many many messages to her. and yes, she even entertains random messages. i am not sure how much free talk time she has, but she is complaining that her phone is tooo silent. so please call her as often as you like :D remember, it is 93620847

and for those who are studying for tests, jia you! not much longer now. your tests should be over in just a bit. so just hang in there!! plus, children's camp is coming up. so for those involved in children's camp, that is something else to look forward too! for a condusive learning environment, you can go study in church.

reminder for sec 2 & 3 yd people. combined yd outing on 28th may, organized by the yd teachers. so please leave that day free!

a long 13th post

2006-04-09T00:39:00.000-07:00

you kow when life is getting boring and uninteresting when you have hardly anthing to blog even after a week. that is, with the exception of complains.

anyway, looking forward to the coming week. why? many many sporting events!school sports day javelin and 4x100m on monday and 12x200m on tuesday. not to mention SAAA javelin on saturday. looking forward to all these will certainly make the days pass faster.

but then again, i have to run 2.4km for napfa this tuesday as well. how unfortunate. waste time, waste energy. oh well, i have decided to merely get below 13minutes. a C is good enough. still can get gold of napfa, so there is no difference between getting an A and a C.

yf next saturday involves trying to cook some dish with egg in it. i was sooo looking forward to it, until i remembered i had my javelin competition. hm ... my javelin competition is at 2pm. maybe it will end early enough for me to go join my small group for cooking. haha. i hope the judges who will be tasting dishes and dishes of cooked and semi-cooked eggs, will not get diarrhoea. that would be unpleasent. :S

for some reason, talking about diarrhoea has jogged my memory. i was supposed to go for a LAN session today as a class outing. how appropriate. waste time, waste money, waste energy. i have no idea why people love playing LAN. it doesn't make sense. first of all, it is much more expensive than playing at home. like hello? $1 ++ an hour? so not worth it.

some may justify their actions by saying that it is a time for bonding and having a good time with good friends. but why not go watch a movie? i admit, movies are more expensive, but they do not deteriorate your eyesight as much and they are not as mindless. you might actually remember something or learn something after watching a movie.

for example, Munich. you get to know about how 8 Arab terrorists stormed into the Olympic village and raided the apartment building that housed the Israeli contingent, killed 2 Israeli atheletes and seized 9 others as hostages. how they terrorists demanded the release of over 200 Palestinians serving time in Israeli jails, along with two renowned German terrorists. how after a day of unseccussful negotiations, the terrorists collected the hostages and headed for the military airpot in Munich for a flight back to the Middle East. how at the airport, German sharpshooters opened fire, killing three of the Palestinian and how the exchange of fire subsequently resulted in the claim of the lives of all the 9 hostages along with 2 policemen and 2 other terrorists.

what do you get out of playing a few hours of LAN? how to get more headshots in a certain amount of time? how to get some elusive item in Dota that will help you get more kills? or MMORPG games whereby you spend endless hours trying to increase your level and what not.

don't get me wrong, i am not out to get all those who play LAN. you have your reasons and i accept that. i am not saying that it is wrong, but i was just wondering ... why? something to do with the human psyche maybe? some urge to play computer games in a dark room, coupled with headphones and a stereo sound system with fellow fanatics? hearing gunshots from your all around you, seeing grenades being thrown in your face? hearing some monotonous simulated shout of 'MONSTER KILL'?

although scientific research has proven that computer games do enhance one's reflexes and thinking speeds, that's another story.

i just don't get it,
help me to understand.
let me not judge you,
lest i be condemned.
explain to me brethren,
convert me if you must;
the importance of LAN gaming,
lest i be cussed.

12th post?

2006-04-08T23:20:00.000-07:00

another interesting poem by charles..

what's up with joey,
see her scream.
scaring away the children,
causing a scene.
imagine children's camp,
fear for the children we must,
save them from joey,
or watch them go bust

haha! i kept pressing some other letter before "haha"..so my "haha"s mostly turned into..."dhahahah", "jahahaha", "whahaha", "ehahahaha"!!!!! tsk tsk to myself.. :S

ah well. the week has been real busy but rather interesting! i helped out in the IP1 parent-teacher meeting on thurs. had to wear that BRIGHT red tie that totally contrasts with our grey uniform! >< but it was really fun anyway. bringing the parents around..and pretending to know where all the lecture theatres are, when actually i dont! haha. i attempted guessing whos parents they were..but kinda failed. LOL. my civics tutor had SURPRISINGLY good things to say about me..but then again, he said practically the same things for everyone..so...AHA. ;P

OH YEAH! i disected a pig's eye on friday! AHH..so fun!!! i want to do it again! but the sclera was super hard to cut through. LOL. it wasnt as gross and scary as i thought it would be lah! haha. :)

grr..two piano horrors tmr. SS and YW. HELP! i must apply what i learnt during yf today! to concentrate on worshipping God rather than worrying about what others think of me or how well i play..:)

Rain Rain Go Away!

2006-04-04T02:45:00.000-07:00

today's javelin competition has been postponed due to an overcast sky. so sad. was quite looking forward to it. although, i would only be able to manage a measly 3rd at best. i would have probably gotten a 4th. no medal :( oh well, this could very well be a blessing in disguise. afterall, He works in mysterious ways.

i shall use this week to train up, and hopefully be able to throw past 40m by the time Singapore Amateur Athletes Association competition comes. my current distance of 38 distance will not do. how am i going to be able to go to WALA like this?

took my napfa 5 stations today. quite happy with it. except for my shuttle run which is horrible. i should learn how to grab the 2 wooden blocks without being on the verge of falling over. help anyone? anyhow, these are the results of my napfa 5 stations.

Sit-Ups : 45 repetitions
Inclined Pull-Ups : 27 repetitions
Sit and Reach : 47 cm
Standing Broad Jump : 265 cm
Shuttle Run : 10.4 sec

i am having my 2.4km run next week. certainly not looking forward to it. hope i can scrape a B grade. i would be ecstatic if i could.

Leaving you with a poem entitled 'Piano'. enjoy.

Piano

And I hear the trickle of keys,
those blacks and the whites
ringing in my ears.
Then comes the descending scale,
for which you enter
as I have saved you a drink.
Red or white? I think you like white,
The major key.
And yet as I hit the flat,
I see the augmented second.
Enough talk, you're the piano man.
Let your ivories do the speaking,
And I'll take my red.

Thank You, Lord

2006-04-03T21:40:00.000-07:00

Thank You, Lord
For the trials that come my way
In that way I can grow each day
As I let You lead
And I thank You, Lord
For the patience those trials bring
In that process of growing
I can learn to care

But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of all I do
Cos when those trials come
My human nature shouts the thing to do
And God's soft prompting can be easily ignored

And I thank You, Lord
With each trial I feel inside
That You're there to help, lead and guide
Me away from wrong
Cos You promised, Lord
That with every testing
Your way of escaping
Is easier to bear

But I thank You, Lord
For the victory that growing brings
In surrender of everything
Life is so worthwhile
And I thank You, Lord
That when everything's put in place
Out in front I can see Your face
And it's there Your belong

how reassuring! :) Romans 5:3-5!!

"..we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."

when our hearts are 'broken', we grow closer to God as he develops our character! lets thank God for our sufferings, and allow Him to take care of it all. :D Gods way of escaping is easier to bear..how true :)

Considerate Behaviour

2006-03-31T22:00:00.000-08:00

By the time training was over, and I decided to return home, it was raining cats and dogs. The rain forming a sheet that blurred the vision of mere-mortals. After waiting for 15 minutes, and thoroughly drenched, bus 156 finally came. But it was quite crowded. I blame the rain.

I hate being in crowded places. All the pushing and shoving. Ew.

Anyway, when i boarded the bus, I took a seat next to a lady who was taking up 3/4 of the seat. Although I was only taking 1/4 of the seat, she rudely demanded that I move to another seat. It wasn't so much of the words used, but her tone and mannerism. Not wanting to cause a scence, I removed myself from her seat and searched for another seat. A friend of mine who was on the bus kindly shared his seat with me.

Upon reaching the next bus stop, more students poured in. These students too were tired after a week of school and were looking for seats. In Singapore, the seats at the front of buses are face toward each other. 2 students decided to take a seat just below the TVmobile monitor. An inconsiderate lady, had her feet placed on the seats and deprived these students of a seat. Only after 20 seconds, did she realise that these 2 students intended sit there.

Citizens of Singapore, these seats do not belong to you. Please to not give your belongings a human persona and therefore deem it fit to take up 2 seats. And please do not place your feet on these seats. The soles of your feet have been to who-knows-where and we do not wish to plaster the souvenirs of your journeys on our garments.

Although I am quite irritated by these inconsiderate actions, I am happy that I did not see ' The Bishan Pervert '. I have had enough of his lecherous glares and stares. Could someone do society a favour (and not to mention students who have to endure such torture) and disallow him from boarding the buses?

its friday!

HAHA. ms lim must be so disappointed because Bi Qings super pro! ex-RV netballer. plays C. how cool. yeah and i partnered her for most of the ball work stuff..and since shes so fast, i just HAD to work hard to catch up with her! i felt SUPER SUPER worked out after the whole training...and im aching a little today. haha. shows how out-of-shape i am. LOL. :S

training today was cancelled because of the rain..how sad :( i was just looking forward to it!! oh yah. our netball team is seriously shrinking in size. we have 7 now. just when the team was starting to increase..some people HAD to quit. :( now we dont have enough people to play half court anymore. unless ms lim plays with us of course. how i wish i could go back to sc to train with them! i miss REAL on-court trainings..nvm! i must learn to do everything with joy! :D

sch has been going fine. besides the fact that i dont understand anything for maths -.- tuition anyone? and my chinese pulled my gpa down. i just needed a C to give me a 3.50 for my gpa instead of 2.97!! haha. i shall work hard for the next assessment week :S homeworks piling up. more and more projects! time for joey to start getting back into the PROPER rhythm of sch!

Baking Bread

2006-03-29T03:10:00.000-08:00

You w0uld wonder what makes the world go round,
Or how it revolves with that gaping wound
And think for a moment it does not care,
That on its face has others living there.
Pray once that no blemish cause it to gash
For already begun its skin to rash,
And ask that its eyes of deep navy blue
Are untouched by a bowl of butter brew.
For once one doctors its ailing disease
That uproots its flesh and mows down its trees
And brand upon its skin that awful scar,
The face wearing a blackened mask of tar:
Finds a virulent virus of fast spread,
Whose hands from its flesh did plow to bake bread.
