Ahhhhh my blog's dying. Need to revive it.

Aniwae im going to sell my ipod classic, and then get a hp with mp3 capabilities, considering some nokia models, like N81 or 5610. Current sony ericsson models arent really attractive to me, and i wont consider any other brands at the moment.

I'm in a dilemma. I dunno if i should sell my ipod classic. On one hand, i love it very much. Unlike the nano and shuffle, the classic has a macho feel to it. But on the other hand, it is fragile and not suitable for sports, and it has way too much memory for me. How?

Skipped judo training today. Feel damn bad abt it. But i guess i cant help it, so freaking tired tt i overslept and woke up at 12. Wow.

@ 10:12 PM

just manually refilled my ink just now. quite messy, but the end result was good, and savings was great ($2 to refill once compared to $43 for original cartridge). But the process pretty tedious, have to hand drill hole, then inject ink, then the ink spill out, then kena my hands stained, had to use fingernails plus soap and water to scrape it off my fingers. Well i'm using maxtec, pretty new brand in singapore compared to others like sepoms and inkstation (both had mixed reviews), but maxtec is quite an established company from hk. I'll see if there's any problems over the next few days.
Maybe i'll try hipfill next time. Their pump for refilling is cool. No wonder they call themselves hipfill. But a bit on the expensive side.

had judo camp from mon to thur, had to say that it was more slack than previous judo camps, probably cos there was no morning pt, but it was a better experience than past camps as well, as i experienced more improvements in judo for this camp, and also because of the bonding i had with my batchmates and juniors, and some of them are really hilarious (no offence). But yea, sec 2s u all need to work hard, and be more open minded to changes in ur sparring style, otherwise u'll nvr improve.
Indian dance videos and FUNNY VIDEO! LOL!

YOG trials yesterday was a misnomer. We went there, did warmups, had a brief briefing from the old birds of SJF on preparations, training trips & exchanges, competition opportunities, yog 2010, then watched sum a div players spar, then change out.
Really sounds like a waste of time eh? There wasnt even any tryouts of sorts.

Well one good thing abt the new (old) guillemard crescent compound is it's airy and quite spacious cos of the high ceiling, not old and small with low ceiling like the old compound at portsdown road. Another good thing is it's near geylang. Before u start thinking of the wrong stuff, it's good because geylang has good durians, and it just happens that the durian season is here (thou prices are probably gonna jump cos of diesel price jump in malaysia, where most of our good durians come from). Hmm maybe i shud invest in durian plantations next time. As well as palm tree plantations.

But seriously, if singapore judo is to return to its glory days, we shud at least have a decent, nicely renovated building to begin with, not sum rundown school building. And SJF shud do more to connect with former judokas and encourage them to return to the sport.

Aniwae i had mentioned that i will post pics on my blog, but have not done so yet. Sry abt that, i'll try to find time to do it before sch reopens.

Got tagged by chinje to do this. Usually cant be bothered but since he tagged me, i shall.

Q1: Do you like your present school?
Yea. At least better than hwa chong. Got lots of famous ppl here. Even got chance to ride maserati! But it helps if there are more rich friendly kids.

Q2: What do you want the most now?
A lot of things. Including finishing homework, get MC for judo camp, fly to Shanghai and live a millionaire's life there forever.
The second and third are obviously not gonna happen.

Q3: Who is the closest person to you in your school?
"No idea. Still finding maybe =)" Quoted from chinkie

Q4: Do you hate your friends sometimes?
"Sure when they're being idiots or jerks." Quoted from chinkie again. But highly unlikely that u'll even find ppl like tey guan and russell wong becoming my friends.

Q5: If you could change something in your life, what would it be?
Hmm probably my sad history when it comes to girls. (But at least i can laugh at myself for being such a retard)

Q6 What is one thing in your life you would never change if you had the chance?
I wont even have the chance. Why ask such retarded questions. Just get on with life damn it.

Q7: Do you believe in love at first sight?
Use to. Found out that love is a lot more complex. Love at first sight is basically attraction, not true love.

Q8: Do you believe in eternal love?
Isn't God's love eternal?

Q9: Have you ever broken someone's heart that he/she wants to commit suicide?
More like the opposite.

Q10:What do you enjoy doing the most?
Just living my life to the fullest.

Q11: Have you ever done anything for your admirer?
How do i know who's my admirer?

Q12: What part don't you like about yourself?
I'm satisfied.

Q13: Do you cherish every single friendship of yours?
Yea. Unless it's not worth cherishing anymore.

Q14: Who would you probably spend the rest of your life with?
Me, myself, and I. (I cant be fully sure abt God. I'm a fickle person sometimes)

Q15: What do you think is the most important thing in your life?
My life and soul. Without life, the soul is meaningless; without the soul, life is meaningless.

Q16: Do you find life meaningless?
Sometimes.

Q17: What do you live for?
Wah why the questions getting more and more philosophical.

Q18: Who do you talk most to in school?
Myself?

Q20:When do you think is the right time for relationships?
Sexytime!

Training Camp just less than 24 + 9 = 31 hours away. Hope i dun die.

Sumhow it seems that most call centres have been outsourced to india. When i called Philips last year regarding my lcd monitor, i suspected the lady was from india. This time, when i called Apple, the lady was also from india. What's more, their spoken english is better than mine! I had to try my best in expressing myself properly in english when calling them, and i didnt pass with flying colours in that area. At least Dell still have locals in charge of the telephone technical support service.

Damn my ipod is infected with sum wormy worm. So troublesome. Have to reformat it, then reload all my songs and videos. Damn. I've had enough problems with IT stuff this hol, and now got ipod problem. wa lan.
Oh btw, i'm trying to offload a set of GP ReCyko Rechargeble batteries (4 AA Batteries plus Quick Charger) which i have no use for, so if you're interested, please contact me.
From some research online, it's selling for abt $35 to $39. Which means retail price is probably even higher. I'm selling it for $30. If you're lucky, i might even sell it to u at a cheaper price.
Hmm this gives me an idea. Since i've quite a number of unused stuff, might as well start an online shop and sell everything cheap.
Businessman in the making. =D

Hmm actually for my 201st post i wanted to post pics of the past few months, but well i'll do that next time.

Actually last week i watched motorcycle diaries, and i realised how che guevara found his calling in communism. People throughout Latin America in his time were suffering, and he probably wanted to liberate them. His intent was good, but using violence as method was sumwhat flawed. But despite that, he deserved and indeed has gotten recognition (in the form of t-shirts, apparently).

Then yesterday i watched Harold and Kumar Escapes from Guantanamo Bay. Quite funny and weird actually. Kumar's quite dumb actually, but he's supposed to be a nerd. And there are the usual stuff of M18 movies (not gonna mention what they are), but apparently Bush smokes weed (aka marijuana) in the movie. Well to know more, u might as well watch it urself. But note, M18 movies mean it has M18 content.

Judo Training Camp coming soon. Shud start to get mentally prepared for it. I think im improving, or at least im tryin to. Creatine has been working wonders, but it makes me more thirsty. I bet i drank the most water during yesterday's training.

Hmm i wonder if i should sign up as YOG volunteer. I dunno if i'll be good enough to participate in the YOG by the time it's organised. I'll be JC1 by then. I wonder if i'll even continue judo by then. I wonder if signing up as volunteer will affect my studies. Well i'll think abt it.

My 2ooth post! Lots of things have happened since this blog was first started in sec 1. Looking back, i thought that i was really childish and immature (and perhaps horny) then, but well, so was everyone. Highlight of this blog was when a pic i posted up on this blog was used in a New Paper article about, of all things, TAU POK! Haha. Well it made 1M 06 sumwhat famous and infamous at the same time. Hopefully no one knew that those were RI boys. Haha. Well there are also the unhappy moments in this blog's history, but i dun want to talk more about it.

I guess that it's a great achievement to have made it that far in RI. There were the ups and downs, but i have sumwhat learned to take everything in my stride. In RI, there are so many people that are even better, smarter, more talented, and more hardworking (aka more muggerish), than you, and that teaches you to learn to eat humble pie, yet at the same time inspire u to greater heights.

Over the last 2 1/2 years in RI, i've met many great people, but i've not been able to fully appreciate their presence in my life. But now that i've gotten older, i'm starting to learn how to do that. Even the people that are not on good terms with you, are in your life for a reason, to teach you a life lesson, to make you stronger and more disciplined.
I'm lucky to be able to get a few leadership positions so far in RI, despite my lack of experience in pri sch and my less-than-stellar academic record, compared to others rafflesians. I've tried to do my best, to provide what i can, and in the process i've learned many stuff. I'm indeed grateful.

I guess it's true that rafflesians only feel proud to be rafflesians only after they graduated, cos that's when you realised that you will never be able to experience the rafflesian school life. And that applies to many other schools with a long and proud heritage.

In life there are ups and downs, and many of these trials and tribulations appear in your teenagehood, the point in life when you're growing and when you're most easily influenced. I've had my own share of them. Yea, last december. I actually think that i was pretty stupid and foolish then, blinded by emotions and stuff like that. But going through it teaches you a lesson, and you'll know how to avoid the same problem, once bitten twice shy. Five months on, the memories still occasionally come back, and it bothers me sometimes, but it's only memories, and the way to treat memories is to remember but not relive. After five months, i guess i've become a better person, after all these lessons.

The road ahead is filled with potholes, roadblocks and detours. One will obviously hesitate in committing to traveling such a road. But who knows, a Shangri-La might lie ahead. For me, i know i want to get there, but i'm patiently waiting for the right conditions for the breakthrough.

Lookout for the 201st post!
