2011

The year started off very bad in my view.

Was supposed to meet someone at some Boon Lay countdown event, only to realise the information given was so little it proved to be meaningless even to hold onto it. Had to walk around asking for clues to patch up information to the supposed whereabouts of someone, only to have it failing me time and time again.

Then again, imagine having to do that for 3 and a 1/2 hours.

Not to mention, having a canister of party poppers sprayed into your face at point blank in the 'search'

Plus the many calls and redials that was made till the battery died.

Go figure.

Contrary to the many happy 'firsts' that is probably being blogged about right now, today. My firsts have been pretty bad to say the least, in consideration to what happened previously, i'm at a seriously at a loss of words.

The little status update which i attempted to vent the frustration i had(without waking my younger brother up), are as follows:

Adrian Tan Qing Nian

appreciates the irony that for once in his life, meeting someone actually involves one asking around for the other's whereabouts. Altogether missing the point that its about meeting in a presumed location and time. Funnily, it evolves to the point that its not about meeting, but by being just there, all in a blink of an eye, suddenly.

Sometimes, even i'm WOWed by the manner at which im able to express myself.......... Even so at times when my anger is at its supposed peak. In the words of my father "Things that occurred, is like the two sides to a coin. Maybe this is a sign that you are able to better control yourself in this year, which i've always said, is your greatest failing."

Quite true, atleast i didn't blast off vulgarities and profanities. Well to Chun Wei......... lets say he was on that side of the scale, but he understands.... Thanks man! :)

Then again, maybe this is a sign of much more greater obstacles and challenges that is to come for this year? Might be, so then sign now is much better than a sign later. Preparations are aplenty i guess, which so most probably start now right?

Looking forward to the New Year. The time when my goals and aspirations can be borned.

Guidance always come in the most unexpected of what can happen.

31st December 2010

*Looks at last blogpost*

It has been a full 5 months since i last blogged. In the blink of an eye, the year is coming to an end and a new chapter in my life is about to open yet again.

A Levels Result

Activities in HQ NCC

NS Enlistment

The past few months have been pretty excited, not to mention with the recent conclusion of NCC Overseas Service Learning Yunnan, China 2010. My holidays thus far has been alot more meaningful than in the previous 17 years of my life.

I'm very glad to know more people, in specifics. Including our two new incoming District Commanders, fellow Cadet Officers and also the last event together with Head Information Management. With it comes a full circle to how at this exact same month, he brought me into NCC, allowing me to work and understand this corps even better.

To my friends, i hope that at some time, some point in our lives, our paths would cross again. Even though i have not been on exactly very good terms with some of you, i wish you all the best in your endeavours, health, and mind :)

And i also hope that to someone, we can get to know each other further.

This concludes the end to this post, i shall now hurry myself down to Boon Lay for something like a Countdown Party invited by a particular someone who don't even bother telling me the details XD

As always, lets be excited for what is to come :D

Nightmare

Well, A7X's new album is quite mind blowing actually(very emotional specifically). My first time listening to the entire album of a band than before when i selectively pick out the music that i like the best :D

AND

Exactly 2 weeks to YJC J2 Prelim 2010 = Nightmare as well. So i guess 'Nightmare' here is a pun as well eh? :(

2 weeks to do the extraordinary, I solemnly swear that i shall not visit the computer after tomorrow, and concentrate on revising those pain in the arses notes.

ARGH

Heather Morris

Know her? She's the 'dumb blonde' in Glee. With one liners like "Do you know dolphins are gay sharks?"

Yeah, thats her. AND SHE ABSOLUTELY AMAZINGLY FREAKING HOT :D:D:D:D

*WARNING NOSE BLEEDING IN PROGRESS (just go to 2:47 to see her AMAZING FIGURE)

OOOOOHHHHHH HOTTEST DANCER I'VE EVER SEEN. And SHE DOES THRILLER with nothing more than a.... HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :D

NAISE!

Avenged Sevenfold - Buried Alive

Word has it that this song is the "Stairway To Heaven" for this heavy metal/metalcore band.

I agree :D

Awesome riffs, licks, solo(listen to the awesome sweep by Gates!) and outro that has even Skulls head banging to the rhythmic of the song!

Hahahaha

27th July 2010 seemed to be a good day, for Stone Sour is releasing their 'Audio Secrecy' album as well. So there you are, two awesome bands releasing their albums on the same day.

Qn: Shall we see who win?

Ans: No, thats fucking stupid, both bands are excelling in their own right!

Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare

Awesome song dealing with fear and rejection, possibly written after the death of drummer Jimmy 'The Rev'.

Good to know that Mike Portney doing a great job on drums, and not the usual bullshit he plays for his drum 'solos'(my opinion).

AND, Johnny Christ finally stood up in his role as bassist for A7X. Bass lines in 'Nightmare' kinda reminds me of Cliff Burton's bass style in Metallica, and that of Billy Sheehan as well.

Lead, melodic bass, whilst keeping the tempo and rhythmic structure of the music intact. Nice one!

Shall wait for the entire album to appear before any kudos, but for now, this song is THE BOMB :D

ATTENTION: Look at how Gates hold his pick for the sweeping section of the solo, AND HE's using a sustainer unit in place of the Bridge pickup. Effing AJ refusing to accept the fact that Gates uses a sustainer unit, calling me stupid as well. That retard.....

Fuck, got freaking frightened by a cockroach while tidying my room. Even have to ask dad to settle it. HAHAHA

Why the hell is it lurking in my j1 stuffs???

Holland Vs Spain

I have to agree, both sides played pretty well, attacking football by both of them. A radical departure from Spain's love of playing passing(like some fuck type school soccer).

But, it is with great disappointment that lady luck decided not to smile on the side of the Dutch.

FIVE TIMES, that was how many OPEN chances that was given to the Dutch. However, they were either mishandled, lacked the finishing touch or else was fouled upon but not given the penalty kick that was deserve.

All the fucking English referee did was to repeatedly find fucking fault with the Dutch side, giving them yellow cards and red cards like as though everything is their fault. And when the turn comes for the Spaniards to be cautioned, all he does is to verbally warn them.

Fuck i swear this Howard Webb referee is as fucking screwed up as his English national team's golden generation of MONEY SUCKERS.

It should have be the Dutch victory from the 1st period of additional time where Sneijder, Van Persie or whoever else was forcefully tackled by 2 Spain defenders, and this fucking idiot didn't give the penalty kick even though it was fucking in his face that the first defender tackled the Dutch's leg, and the next was resorted to pulling his jersey in the torso area.

Next, the Dutch free-kick that was rebounded off i tink it was Pique's arm and hit the crossbars of the goal post was not warranted a second free-kick. Adding to that is a fucking handball that the referee did not address. And the game was made to continue with Casillas being made to kick the ball out to resume play.

WHAT THE FUCK!? Own ball out of field + Handball = Ball back into the team that faulted this two?

Where in the hell does such a referee exist?

I swear to any divine being that i think this is a bookmarker conspiracy, and that some form of organisation bought the referee over to biased against the Dutch, preventing them to win this year's championship.

Any football fan out there who watch the match would no doubt have realised the open bias of it all, but who choose to side the Spain because they are the fucking favourite or anything.

Dutch failure, Spain's success is on the referee's one-sided approach. Fucking bias piece of English shit.

Don't rejoice in Spain's win, they were merely capitalising on the situation. All they are good at passing, and that's all they do to get this far. Hell i freaking despise such a draggy team!

Not to forget, Villa was constantly at off-sides. For like 5 times, and not card was given to him? What the fuck!? In other matches, the referee would have given this shit a cautioned for blatantly flauting the rules. And this English? He did nothing, further enforcing his value as much as the English team are concerned.

Of Inter-College rivalries

Well, this is not about YJC. But about a very hilarious event that was set in Facebook, for Hwa Chong Students in regards to the FINALS FOR WORLD CUP 2010 that is set in the godly hour of 2.30am, Singapore Time, which spells T-R-O-U-B-L-E for many a student that is an avid fan of the beautiful game.

This in particular, is an appeal to all Hwach students to turn up promptly at 7.30am tomorrow morning for morning assembly and NOT TO FOLLOW THE FOOTSTEPS(ponning/take mc to emulate) of a particular Raffles Institution(Junior College), which their school so willingly gave a 1 day break for students in lieu of this Once-in-4 Years event, which i wish YJ's Mdm Koh could give it to us as well :(

Freaking hilarious. Which naturally sparked a war-of-words on both bastions of academic acheivers :D

Here goes:

Date:	Monday, July 12, 2010
Time:	7:30am - 2:30pm
Location:	Hwa Chong Institution Fellow HCians! Today is the day we consolidate our advantage over those infidels at Marymount! Whilst they are unsuspectingly enjoying undeserved rest after a wasteful 2 hours watching a vuvuzuela concert, we, under the leadership and decree of our great principal, shall mug like we have never mugged before. The time has come to bridge the chasm of results between us and them, and the opportunity has never been so great. An appeal must be made to those who wish to fall prey to the b-flat temptation. How can you squander such a rare opportunity? After all, the world cup only comes once every four years. Thus it is OF NO IMPORTANCE AT ALL. Don't you know how important ONE DAY OF SCHOOL is in comparison? We have almost 9001 school days! Miss one, and its NO LONGER OVER 9000! Let us now unite in a new spirit, to take back what is rightfully ours. Invite all your friends. See you at 0730hours for flag raising on monday. Those who wish to participate, pls take note to bring along ur pillows, jackets, and other essential equipment for maximum mugging comfort. By a certain 'Jerrold Soh Tsin Howe' from HCI

Germany Vs Spain

Fuck. The Germans lost the game!

1-0 at the 72nd Minute.

To make things worse, i overslept, and was not called up for the match.

Lucky i bought only $5 on German's win at 3-1.

Looks like Spain brought with them the curse of Singular goals for all their matches since the Group Stages, Round of 16, Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals to now, the Finals.

However, i will still give my support to Germany for 3rd Place winners :D

Small mistakes resulting in a great big impact. If only the Germans could have played more to their right, stop giving too much respect to the Spanish. Possession sucked big time for Germany, and here i am feeling the blues about it. And when i eventually buy a number i thought of, it doesn't score. Looks like the divine being is protecting me from the pitfalls of gambling. Thanks dude! :D:D:D:D:D:D
