swallow your pride and sing tonight.

25/7 : Project nutz. Meet up with my teammates after school. Peter, Shilah, Andre, Eng yong, Jeff and Yishan was in my team. Changed to our running attire and headed to the sport complex. Was drizzling lightly, i am the last runner for our marathon, feeling rather stress at that time. Peter was the first runner, had a late start, jeff fell down at the last part. Saw plenty of familiar faces there. The whole route is easu, just that the last part which is the up slope, is the killer, took out most of my energy there, wanted to sprint at the last part, end up running at my normal pace :( Overall we did our best, too bad we didn't win anything. Great job everyone !

26:7: Catched dark knight with nic and jh. 9 out of 10 stars. Joker's acting is really professional, too bad the real actor died of drug overdose. Joker live up to the reputation of batman's worse enemy, him and his clever and crazy scheme. To those who haven't watch it, it is a must watch.

Finally got my new phone - samsung soul u-900. Skipped school today to get the phone. Went to toa payoh central first with my mum to compare the prices between both starhub and singnet. In the end i decided to get singtel since it is more worth it becuase of the deduction in phone price for new sign up. Went to the main branch at ang mo kio hub. Did the registration and all with the customer officer, but end up they don't have stock in hand. So dropped down all the way to somerset com-center headquarters to get my phone. Got my phone at relativley cheap price, i am delighted with the sleek design of the hone, just that i not used to the touch screen and the messaging funciton of this phone.

Went home to took my skate, and off i go to school for inline session. Cloudy sky on my way to school, got a feeling it is a wasted trip. Skated for 2hours before the sky started raining. Went to kap mac to slack before heading home. Somehow i got inside the mini sliding compeition, i seriously need luck to win.

i never seem to follow my feeling

11/07: CSAA presentation finally over. Dropped down ice after school, thanks for letting me your skate xiao feng. So surprise that i can do inner brake with xf's skate. Simply love the drift feeling and the spraying of ice. Too bad i can't do anything on my own skate, shouldn't have sharpen it at the first place..darn. The usuals came down, so ice seem to be more fun than the previous session. Supper with the usual before heading home.

12/07: NE show 2, today my job is to bring the primary 5 kids to the sitting gallery. I was allocated to ai tong primary school. Upon reaching the school, i was briefed by a army personel wee sheng, which is the same age as me. My partner (anne) and i didn't really do much, except ensuring no kids go missing along the way and ushering them to their correct seats, most of the things are settle by the teachers and wee sheng. Wee sheng was very stress at first because 10 buses suppose to report at the school at 3.30, but at 3.50 not even a single bus came, after several call to the management, the buses finally arrived at 4.00. 1 class are allocated to 1 bus, so we ushered them up the bus. I board the last bus together with the last class. Nowadays the kids are so fortunate, most of them using better handphones, mp3, camera than most of the adults. Kids nowadays are damm noisy, notorious, playful, spoilt, materialstic and vulgar. The kids are jumping and screaming on the bus. Soclding vulgarities and fight in front of their teacher. The most hilarous part if they used the inflated hand to point middle finger at each other..i wonder who taught them all these at this age, i don't even know those vulgarities when i am their age..Ai tong was located the most corner of dark green sector, so we have to climbed up all the way, many of the kids keep complaining about that and i have to carry 3 boxes of bread all the way up there, kinda tiring. Some kids are damm cute, quite fun to chat with them, they will ask you all the weird weird question, which will make you laugh. The performance was nicer than last week, the fireworks more grand and the black knight is DOPE. My school was second last to go back, somehow my bus which is the first to leave, arrived late as i am suppose to gather everyone before letting them go. Since my bus was late, those who arrived before me went home, luckily kids made it back to the school. Met a primary school teacher which is 23 years old, poor thing lah, keep getting bullied by all the primary school kids. Quite a good experience ushering the kids. Went home to bath and change once evrything settled and head out to supper with jeff, peter and ley.

NE SHOW 1. Was posted to yellow sector. Reported at the floating platform at 11.45 with eldon, welan, jeff and ley. My leaders were mia, so i take over their job, taking food and drinks for my group. After briefing, we was located to our positon. Somehow something screwed up, the audience are supposed to enter from below, they end up appearing from all directions, everyone was lost inculding the leaders. Some singaporeans are just bad egg of the society, most of us got scolding from those bad egg. They think their ticket very big, can sit anywhere they want..just uncouth and unreasonable.Mine you, ushering is damm tiring, need to run everywhere under the hot sun. I don't really give a damm tho, all i care is i had fun for the whole day. Get to watched most of the show, really a different feeling compare to last year, ushering and performing. Missed out the black knight part, time to catch it last week. Primary 5 kids are so cute, one primary 5 kid actually offer me tibits, played with him awhile before doing my own job. Released at 10+, headed down to lau pa sha with the usuals. The teh tarik there is damm nice! the best i ever had.

1) don't be a pillar

3) don't let anyone spoil your day (which i think is the most applicable)

looking forward for the next ndp show

this is when i found myself back
