everything i want to love.

2 days ago i went to some Old Folks Home where generally most of the people there live with no tomorrow to look forward to. I went there for CIP.
These visits are really wholesome. They make you think and reflect on your life and how you're living it.
For me, i was really fortunate to pick this old lady. My first intention was to just talk to her for a bit to waste time and look like i'm doing CIP.
But upon the first few conversations, i realise that things were becoming more interesting. And aside from the language barrier (she speaks hokkien + chinese? got to get my friend to translate),
the conversation was kinda fun.
She told me her life story about her children running away and her sister asking her to faster die. She did teared a little during the story. Subsequently, with more questions, i learnt that life in the old folks home is really mundane; wake up at 3pm. eat eat eat. then sleep at 8pm.
I also noticed that most of the workers there are foriegn workers and do not work passionately. They were rude and bullied the elderly !

Anyway to conclude. After much reflection on journey from my school to bugis,
I've got two really important lessons that i've learnt in my 18 years of life.
that is:
1) Alyways blame yourself before blaming others.
2) Do not judge.
3) Treat everyone like a 10! (for those who went to FOP 2008 you would know what this means) but anyway in another words, its to treat everyone fairly and well.

sooner or later love comes inside you, gets behinds and takes you under its wing.

Tomorrow's kinda exciting cause i got a rock climbing competition; Boulder Active 2009.
And i'm still sleeping late though i'm supposed to be there (novena which is really far) before 9am tmr.

oh and...
One of the best christian songs.
With better recording i'm sure it'll manage to achieve a standing ovation one day.
serious. haha

why - jason lim

you finally find you and i collide.

Happy Birthday Bing Xun.
Today's (or rather to be specific, yesterday) is Bing Xun's birthday.
One of my really great and awesome friends, whom i've known dearly for quite awhile i must say.
Nice guy. great friend.
I still remember the times i came over to your house at midnights just before exams to borrow notes to study cause being someone who doesn't like to file my stuffs, i'm always missing something.
And the time you taught me some guitar stuffs.
Those were the days. But i'm sure there are more to come.
Hope u had a really wonderful birthday and nice presents and a nice "blue-black" haha.
(And there're lots of pictures which i will upload when i recieve them)

So today was kinda fun and tiring.
Played basket ball in the morning in school. Got sun burnt all over.
Ate lunch at Serangoon gardens and then later watched "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist" at my house. Rented the DVD.
Not quite a bad show, its a chick flick, you know what i mean.
Then hurried down to Orchard for dinner at Sakura; celebrating Bing Xun's birthday.
Dinner was great, though really expensive.
After dinner we went to katong for karaoke. Was really fun, its a pity some people left earlier or couldn't come.
Anyway to sum it all up, its been a rather fun day for me. And i've only got 6 hours of sleep left cause i have to wake up early tmr.
goodnight.

and happy 2.

The future will be more interesting if you create it.

okay i guess that picture kinda sucks, but anyway if you haven't got it, its a specially selected/designed picture to be used as an advertisement for "NUS open house 2009"

I went there today, pretty crowded.
Main objectives:
1) learn more about the courses i can take next time.
2) inspire myself to study something.

Of course those were on the assumption that i score well enough to make it into NUS, ceteris paribus.
OR
not score well but with or by other means get into NUS. Such means include stuffs like those DSA stuffs you know...

Overall, it was a great eye opener and i had a wonderful time from learning more about each courses (from the countless questions my mom asks) to collecting goodie bags.
One goodie bag had a memo inside which is good cause i've been eyeing one to help organise myself style.
By far, pharmacy, computing studies and business studies seem to appeal to me.

And finally, regarding the above tittle which i found really cool at NUS today.
"The future will be more interesting if you create it"
i'm really inspired today to not only get into a university but to plan for my idea future.
so here's some areas i would like to shape/create in my life:
- church
- definately you next
- along with my parents and friends
- studies
- responsibilities and other moral values.

Okay thats about it. goodnight.
p.s. i still got school tmr though its the term break !

Stole me a dog-eared map and called for you everywhere

yay! one more day of ct and i'm done.
So far, chem's pretty easy and math is a killer.
i don't even bother doing the freaking integration,
Its a 3 hours paper only on 4 topics and i don't know why most of the questions were integration. And i studied vectors like siao the day before. =.="
so in the end i decided, why waste $145 if i won't use it "optimumly", so i used the graphic calculator for all of them (which is the partially wrong way)
okay its late and i still got bio to do.

bye.

favourite study song:

stress has caught up

i just knew today that my common test were only on JC2 topics. so great, i spent so much time revising all my jc1 stuffs only just to know that today. =.="
That's why i'm really stress now and i don't know why i bother to blog and watch Youtube videos.
lol. maybe cause today has been kinda productive.
looking forward towards the end of common test!

okay and this video's really funny ! (i think its fake)

so well rehearsed

okay for the past 2 days my school has totally NO water supply cause the main water pipe burst, and its under one of the lecture halls so they had problems repairing it immediately.
It was devastating, if not more of a catastrophe. With no water, i was getting dehydrated really fast. Seriously i noticed my dependance on water and the water cooler machine. haha
And the stupid drink stall aunty increase all the mineral water price by 10 cents! =.="
oh no water means that the toilets cannot be used. Good thing my school placed 6 disposable toilets in the assembly area/parade square for students to use. So you can practically see rows of students queueing outside the toilets during breaks.
And since there's a queue (and partly cause i'm lazy to queue), i go during lessons. Which means, i have to walk down 4 stories just to use the toilet and then walk up again. lol

Anyway its been a relief now that the water problem is rectified.

But the main highlight of today would be the "Release Of A levels Results!"
Well, obviously not for me, cause i take CLB, but for my friends and everyone who takes mother tongue or have sat for GCE "A" levels examinations last year.
Hm, results were kinda good this year, top student's from my CCA with 90 points. And he "demanded" a new climbing wall from the principal. haha so its kinda like taken into consideration now.

Anyway i shall sleep now.
and after watching some youtube video on "physics with superheros", i feel like studying physics.
