Sundown 2011 Reflections
28/5/10 1.22pm
It has been more than 4 mths since my last entry. Im blooging this to remind myself of the learning experience. Just this morning, i completed my 42k. The 1st 24km was good, no stopping, optimistic, until i stopped for a rest..., which i shldnt have... Ard 26km and 29km, i felt the discomfortables, then the 'merlion' in me came twice. With that happening in my journey, i felt that finishing the remaining 13km was hopeless, but i really didnt wanna give up. I felt so lucky to have fren by my side, really thankful for all his encouragements. It's true that 42km is mind over body, i may have the 'mind', but my body was giving way due to the dehydration from the 2 throw ups. The worst thing was, i cant replenish fluids into my body becos it was rejecting the source.
I stopped and walked repeatedly... After the 30km marker, my fren reminded me of the 24km RM during the end of Service Term. That was helpful, though we werent from the same batch, we experienced the same thing. It was 12km to go, less than half of wad we've went thru.. Thinking of that kept me walking for the next 4 km w/o stopping, until we reached the 34km marker. I took sips of 100plus, the feeling of throwing up was coming back. I pushed until 35km marker. I discussed with my fren, he suggested that it wasnt worth it to keep on going for the remaining 7km becos anythg can happen to me, based on the fact that I wld start to feel like puking every 2km, we didnt want to imagine wad wld happen during the next 7km... And so i went to look for the volunteers, and made my decision to fall out. I told my fren to continue his journey as i had held him long enough. shortly, help came to me, a volunteer asked me if i wanna fall out as she cld call the vehicle to send me back to the starting point. Part of me wanted to finish it so much, the other was asking me to stop. This was my 5th 42km, nth like this happened b4, i didnt und wad went wrong... She then suggested that i shld rest longer and decide if i want to continue. I stared at the 35km marker, finally decided to resume. This time, i decided not to walk, i ran.., alone... The journey alone made it tougher. I was telling myself not to give up, i kept on running for the next 3km. Soon, i reached the right turn out of PCN, towards Changi Exhibition Centre, i decided to walk to conserve my energy for the last 1.5km. I passed by 39km marker, then the 40km... I started running the last 1.5km, it still seemed long, but i knew that the finishing line was calling out for me. I could sense the liveliness at the event area. Soon, the finishing gantry appears in front of me, and the 1st thing that came to my mind was, 'i am so glad that i didnt give up'
I am competitive and i aim high. These are also factors that will pull me down in life. Because, if i feel that i will not meet my expectations, i tend to feel like giving up.. U may think that, this is just a 42km run, why make it sound so serious? But i feel that there are things to learn, in everything that we do. A simple 42km makes me see how much i can push myself, how optimistic i can be and how to motivate myself. At the end of the run, it is not just about the timing anymore, it's abt whether i have the guts to face it, and finish it. I would like to apply these things that i've learnt from all my pass marathons to future challenges that i will face, especially the upcoming phase in 2 mths' time.
Falling will make us stronger, perseverance can be a key to success

Running
10/12/10 8.00pm
Hi reader or readers, im back. Im blogging about running on running tracks. Correct me if i am wrong that it is not legal to cycle on running tracks. Am i wrong that bicycles are meant to be on the roads? Correct me if i am wrong that a cyclist is supposed to feel guilty if he was cycling on the running track and knocked onto a runner not once but twice. Serious injuries could have been inflicted especially on the runner considering it between metal and flesh. Instead of feeling guilty, if the cyclist 'supported' himself with vulgarities, shld he be taught a proper lesson?

Mizuno Mt Faber
17/6/10 10.44pm
No time to blog, but it's ok, the run was only a few days ago. Mt Faber is actually a challenge, of cos any1 will noe that it's the upslope portion. The scenery is fantastic, but i only get to enjoy it for a very short time. Downslope was shiok, then all the way towards finishing pt. B4 that i encountered a stop, which made me pissed. It's bcos there isnt any road closure, hence vehicle mvmts are ctrlled by auxillery police. Hope i spelt it correctly. Other than that, the event gave me a special feeling bcos it's like a family event thg. Maybe bcos it's situated at the HDB blocks, like a carnival. I almost won the lucky draw haha. Ok, will join again next yr if have the chance.
I Beat The Sunrise At Adidas Sundown Marathon!!
30/5/10 5.14pm
Nearing the finishing line... MC announced,"Here comes our runner, Ang Chek Keng! From Singapore! With a timing of 4hrs 45min!" Wow, 1st time in my life! That feeling is more shiok than other marathons. This was my 2nd full marathon, an improvement of 1hr 45mins. Sub 5hrs, i couldnt believe i can hit such a timing. The 1st 24km was fine, constant pace. After the 21km turning pt i was given counterpain, it was useful then. At the 24km marker, i realise that i overshot my timing by few sec, that was when i knew that im slowing down. A frenly uncle gave me a bottle of water which accompanied me till near the exit of ECP, Thanks! Im really really grateful! Wished i had the chance to thank u again =) I had a tough time passing the markers b4 the exit of ECP. Running out of ECP was still not the end. The stretch of PCN road beside the airport was super long, boring and mentally challenging.. Ard 33km onwards i kept thinking that i am reaching the marker 1km ahead, i believed i was tired. After 36km i stopped and applied counterpain, then went on. I carried on slow, The pace was almost like walking. Reaching 38km, i told myself that i had another 4km, but it seemed long. Only when i passed 39km, the surrounding started to get less boring. Reaching 40km, it was the road towards changi exhibition centre. The timing was 4hrs 28min. 41km is surprisingly nowhere to be seen. After passing 41km, there was a big turn to finishing line, but i can see that it's not far, so i sped up. I came to a strgt road towards finishing line. A lot of people ahead, the spot lights were very bright. Finally, i reached the end pt and everythg ended!
I got to watch last few mins of transformer 2 lol. Outdoor movie screening is an enjoyment too. So many ppl sitting on the grd, watching the screen, seldom have the chance to experience this. Then i took a little nap, it was a great feeling outdoor! Near 7am i went to wait for alexandra and tricia, they came in tgt. After everythg we made our way to whitesand mac for bkf and took train back tgt! =)
Why do i love marathons so much? It's because of the spirits of the runners. The never say die spirit touches and motivates me. The limit may be stretched, but it's all worth it after the run. Marathons also allow frens to gather tgt and enjoy the moments tgt. Run ur own race, enjoy it!
What A Boss...
27/5/10 7.46pm
Why am i not surprise that he will react this way? Haha, im used to it. Now b4 i share what i have, from now on, i shall blog abt any unhappiness at work if i have the time. Toking abt IPPT, im not surprised the way he reacted: "not critical for NSF" Oh?? Then supply assistants' IPPT also not important lah? Im leading by example, fitness is one of the criterias that an officer must have. Will the men under him look up to him if his physical fitness is not up there? Will they be inspired to work hard for their own fitness? He told me not to look things on the surfaces, isnt he doing the same thing? He failed to see that it is important for an officer to get gold for IPPT, "not critical"... Well, "supply assistants who get silver 1 day off, gold will get 2 days off" oh so wad abt an officer? "Oh officer need such offs to motivate them meh?" Ohh... like that ah... Maybe he is right, but i will need the offs to get away from him. No doubt that u are knowledgeable, but ur tolerance level is so low. By saying that this is ur weakness is just an excuse. U are so gd with toking, why cant u say that weakness can be be overcome? Ppl learn, u mean u dun? Excuses. Look at the ppl ard u... Is this the type of working relationship u wan? Then why keep asking me to look into my working relationship with my supvrs, how abt urs? Pot calling the kettle black... Anw, im proud of myself for my results, u shld save ur comments for urself, u noe very well that we dun like to listen. We dun like to receive criticism and morale dampening words from u. Often, ur silence makes us happier.
Awesome Time Tgt
5/4/10 9.09pm
Wa, more than 4 mths didnt blog liao. Ok la, actually not very long. But for me to type somethg here again, it's definitely some memorable stuff. On the 3rd of April, the few of us from 0713 had a great time tgt! At least i feel that it was smthg special. It was the kinda feeling that i havent had for a damn long time. That evening, my 2 frens came to my hse and play xbox, we had an exciting time tgt. I kept laughing. The best time starts when we are meeting up with the rest of our frens. That was the 1st time that my fren drives us smwhere. We wanted to go marina barrage. When the 4 of us were in the car, it was drizzling. Then we were on the way to fetch 1st fren, we went one big round, thanks to hong hao. Along the way we were thinking if we shld go one of our frens' hse, coz rainning, but none available. We thght here and there where to go, circle around here and there hahaha. TPE to SLE, Loyang, Pasir Ris, Changi, cldnt find our way. Until we reached changi beach, so windy, cldnt stand it so we wanted to go ECP. LOL hong hao says ECP is just straight head, then in the end we even went on the wrong way, wanted to go turn back to ECP but saw our way towards changi airport hahaha. So we just ended up at terminal 3. Wa, in the end we found that we didnt go to the wrong place.
We sat there from 10+ until 12+, had potato chips and drinks, played zhong ji mi ma but loser played true or dare. This is the best part! Then we saw 4 girls sitting by the side near us, so we dared jy to tell them a joke. Wow, we are impressed, he's super daring. Then we got hong hao to ask which sch they are from, in the end found out that they lied to him lol, dun sad.. Haha huijie was made to walk around a pillar 3 times. Weiliang was made to shout into a rubbish bin "Alice! Alice! Where are u?!" LOL. Haha i didnt kena anythg. Most daring thg that Jy did was to stalk at girls toilet to give them his email. Wahaha! That was when he found out that they are our age. Kudos to him sia. After leaving changi T3, we went to pick annis up to go hong hao hse. We played cards and chit chat, took photo haha had a great time tgt. Then we went for supper. I felt that we were having chalet! I miss chalet tgt. Let's have one at the end of this yr!
The sad part comes when all these ended, we all had to go, but we will meet again. Im will look forward to another outing like this!

But nvm i still went running despite my injured leg. For this hol i have "absolute boyfriend" to kill the time. A nice show, not only for the girls ok. Very funny, touching, loving. haha....

Im a person who needs more time to master some things. But in ocs, the trainings are fast pace.. Sometimes when section is tasked to do smthg, i may appear quite lost of wad to do. Im not supposed to be like this. Buck up man...
Lucky tt bk out is extended by a day. Sat when to food fair at expo with maternal family, followed by giant at tampines. Oh man, i really love this kinda civilian life.

21/3/09 1.09pm
Ytd went adidas sale at expo with fljy (haha) then saw a few frens there, wanted to cut queue to enter the hall but in the end didnt. Yeek, gotta deposit bag then walk ard with a big plastic bag like a noob. Then saw a few ppl dragging adidas items in the plastic bag, walaw eh, free meh? LOL.. But i see nth much leh.. Sale mah, of cos display all the old stuff. Then after tt i walked into other halls to explore. Hmm, later on we catched street fighter. Actually i think street fighter doesnt have story line right?

I went to watch it with leo lim, leo ma supposed to come but he's not feeling well. Get well soon.. Shiwei join us for a bit of pool then dinner. Actually we decided to meet up again on wed for coming soon but, lim went home late today, so i doubt we can. At 1st we thght no train back, cos didnt ask properly. Lim didnt get to board his last train. In the end i suggest to lim tt he takes train to tpy then take a bus from there, save his $. Ok, luckily my plan worked. Last bus home tgt, better than walking home alone..
Uni Open House

Went NUS early in the morning with john and jieyang. John wanted to listen to Law.. Me and jy almost fell asleep.. Then i got separated with them, went to listen FOS while they listen to NUS biz. After FOS they joined for Engineering. Hmm... We went collecting damn lots of stuff at lvl 2. Cos thinking tt they can help us decide wad course to take. Getting 4 distinctions is not a gd thing, cos duno wad course to choose. If i take FOS, there are double majors, one minor, or double degree, so many choices damn it. FOS leads to research or being a teacher. It requires higher lvl of studies, masters degree in order to be sufficient, probably 6 yrs. Engineering, better job prospects, can do business after taking engineering degree. It specialises more. In summation, if i take FOS, very limited jobs i can do. Engineering more job prospects. Lastly, double degree, which is smthg tt interests me. Physics with Material Science Engineering. Physics is interesting but i duno abt MSE. It covers nanotech, but this brings me back to chem engineering, ppl say more popular. HOW HOW HOW
Race To Witch Mountain =)
14/3/09 12.09am
Just now went for my 1st movie after POP with john. Exciting movie, do catch it. So fast, im only left with 9 days b4 hell. Actually go sispec also nvm, less 'Suffer In Silence Plus Extra Confinement' lol. But how many ns men get to receive the sword with his name from chief of army?

POP Loh
11/3/09 11.03pm
This morning sch 1 just had 24km route march b4 POP. At the POP parade itself, we put up our best marching. Everything ended well. B4 the parade, we did OC pt for the last time.. This is one thing tt i will rmb. OC had this habit of giving us OC pt whenever we had our physical training.. We requested for one b4 pop cos we will miss it. I think it ended with a high note. Im so reluctant to leave that place. After my block leave, the hell will start. But im not worried, cos time will fly fast.

7th And Last Book Out
6/3/09 12.10am
Last book out alr.. Captain finally explained the meaning of ala ke pom por, which means nothing. It's hard to explain.. Like u say this phrase to someone, and he is able to reply u mata kong si, u noe tt he's from kestrel. Quite meaningful. Actually if im a commander and get posted to kestrel again i will feel very sad, cos all the frens not there le. I will rmb the feeling of training n sharing a room with bunkmates. Few more hrs to getting back A lvl results. I wasnt worry at the start. But im worried now bcos im scare tt i cant go in ocs becos i dun do well. Lol, seems like getting into ocs is more impt that getting into uni, wth... My csm said it's all fate.. Ya i agree totally. Let me see how fate has decided the path for me.. Ippt4 today. Finally.., it's a gold. Current best 2.4km for me is 9min26sec. I will try to improve. Then i realised if i do 20 pull ups i can get gold-plantinum.. Haha, didnt expect my 2.4km to be under 9min30sec. I was super surprised and happy =) Let's just hope for the best in the afternn later.
6th Book Out
2/3/09 1.17pm
Another week passed in BMT.. 3 wkends burnt in a row but i dun mind. Tekong is a place that helps me not to think of civi life, apart from missing my family. Tekong is a place where i cried the most. Digging self-scrape is one of them, POP will definitely be another one. I dun wanna leave tekong, i dun mind to recourse. I truely love that place. The times with frens, trainings, happy, sad, punishments, but they all left me with a meaningful and memorable experience. After my 16km route march and range last week everything is coming to an end.. Kestrel is the best, no doubt. I love the scenery there cos it's beside the sea. Sunset and stars there are so beautiful.. Im a guy, but these simple things really give a gd impression of army life. Yeah man this is army life. It sucks some parts but overall, it's still the best part of my life so far.. Imagine myself always nth to do at home... NS keeps me occupied, i treasure my time more, understand more things, making me a better person. Girls dun get the chance to sit in a 5-tonner enjoying the wind tt's coming towards us. Army life is cool, watch the advertisement and u'll noe. I think everything happened becos of destiny. For eg, my range.. one shot to marksman.. The 2nd last bullet during night shoot gave me an IA.. Wad can i do? I didnt remedy my IA fast enough... It's all fate la.. This i alr noe, some things happen, be it gd or bad, u have to accept every one of them. Fate... So many companies in tekong... 2 schs, why sch 1? So many companies, why Kestrel? Am i draggy? Ala Ke Pom Por, Mata Kong Si! =) The kestrel spirit within
Book Out Passed So Soon
23/2/09 10.55pm
Something wrong with me today, i ran 2.4km 2 times. One in the morning at 9sm, the other in the evening with jy. Why so hardcore sia? 1st time in my life. Bo bian, im aiming for ocs. Morning timing is actually 9.44, just nice gold timing. Cos i started 3s late, i assume tt i will be starting at the back during ippt day itself. Evening 10min flat, actually 10.01 cos i pace jy. He is improving very fast, jiayou. I have 2 route march left, 16km and 24km. POP soon, then i will be free for abt 10 days =) A lvls results coming out soon. Screw it la, results arent impt to me anymore ever since i enter NS. I feel tt family is most impt. Getting a high pay is also not impt anymore, i just wanna live happily with family and frens. I may feel sad if i cant go up on stage to collect results, but if tt really happens, i can do nth abt it, it's all fate. I noe everything will be all right eventually..
IPPT3 Coming Up
23/2/09 12.22pm
Today morning at about 9+am i went for a 2.4 run. The timing is still 9.46.7 but to think tt i have not been doing physical training for 16 days, i felt much better. Im quite worried actually, no matter wad i must hit under 9.44 or i can kiss OCS goodbye. My peer appraisal and sitest alr dun seem promising. So i have to depend of a few other things to help me get into the beautiful sch.
Sitest
23/2/09 12.03am
I think this is my 5th bk out. Sitest was ok, 6 stations per day for 6 days. Im quite low profile in my detail so i think my peer appraisal may not be gd enough. Let fate decides if im gg ocs. I heard from a fren tt sispec stands for suffer in silence plus extra confinement. lol, dun take it too seriously if any sgt sees this, it's just a way of brightening up our day with some words. We marched 12km to sitest site, which was quite a beautiful place. 2nd night turn out!! One blur sotong went to cook noodles after lights out. He said he saw smthg black coming towards him then he thght was a commander and he asked 'wad time lights out?' In the end the shadow appeared to be a wild boar. All of us laughed today cos he asked the wild boar a question. Oei Oei, was this the ans from the boar?? Whole company kena rifle over head for a bloody long time and push up postion, thx sia. Wa, i was alr dozing off when the turn out occurred. Plz leh, obey the rules la, we are in camp now, u are a soldier, u cant do anythg u wan, becos u are just a recruit! This evening we were told tt we would march back 6km to company line. lol, we saw the 5 tonners leh, cant bluff us. In the end they hid the tonners then i really thght tt we were supposed to march back. Until a pt of time we saw the tonners! Lol we were super happy, haa commanders play this kinda trick also. Everythg was in a rush b4 bk out. We were rushing, didnt wanna miss the ferry. At night visited my ah ma in my smart 4. So long dint see her alr cos bk outs dun fall on wkends. Actually wkdays also can visit her, but my bk out often end right on the next day, no time =( Thinking of training ippt tmr, gotta slp.
Field Camp Over
17/2/09 1.33am
6 days passed so soon.. Day 1.. We arrived at a campsite near urban ops de, then set up our tent. It rained right on the 1st day of field camp! My 2 admin shirts were drying on top of the tent, then got wet again.. It was the 1st time we experienced such a shower since i was enlisted. Urban ops was cool, last man gotta shout 'room cleared!' lol then we moved on to another one. I couldnt slp tt night la, probably 1st night. The grd was rocky, so my back ached often. I gotta hug my wife. Stupid me i tied her to me, cos im scared of stunning, i didnt wan confinement. In the end my arms went numb cos my wife was lying on my arms. Oh ya, suddenly rmb cant blog to much abt army stuff. I shant tok abt the rest of the 5 days, i only got a gd slp on 5th night cos of the jacket they issued. Oh and i digged my own grave but i only got to slp in it for 1 day. Actually it was a gd thg too, i dun wanna slp wif ants. 6 days out field is not long, there is 12days camp, but in command sch. Oh there was this funny ass, he shit ouside of the latrine, then found out by commander. The whole company was tekan until he owned up. Hey, wad took u so long to own up ass? Tekan very fun ar? Said wad wild boar saw u then u shit there. Hello, it chased u then u can still shit ar? Thank you ar.. Abt jungle, my fear is to be alone during nightfall, damn, ocs has this training... Gotta stay in the jungle alone for a night and get out by urself. Sian, army has a variety of actvities but i was told not to blog abt it, ok i shall stop here. Coming soon is sit test, better do well for it.
Field Camp
8/2/09 1.33pm
Jus woke up. Field Camp is coming on the 11st Feb. All the guys are spending Vday in the jungle tgt. Suck thumb. Count the stars. Dun feel sad guys, suck thumb, u cant do anythg abt it. For guys who were nt able to date gals out ytd and today, suck thumb. For guys who were nt able to ask frens out ytd and today, suck thumb. Come on, this is life. Some guys just need tt little time from gals, but if those gals tt claimed tt they were nt free, guys once again, plz suck thumb. Vday is just another day, nth impt seriously.
4th Wk Passed
8/2/09 1.23am
Today i booked out from Singapore Discovery Centre. It is mandatory for every recruit to visit sdc. We toured ard sdc b4 gg army museum. I saw the OCS tower, oh man.. Next to the museum is a mini SOC grd. Passing SOC is one of the basic requirements to get into command school eg OCS or SISPEC. The mini SOC grd is rly super cute. After tt went to jurong pt to have lunch with few section mates. In the late afternn I went to catch Benjamin button wif sis and wl. It’s a long show, quite nice, do catch it. So after tt went to have dinner tgt wif evan then mahjong session at wl’s hse. Supper was after tt, then wl sent sis and I home. Zzz
Ytd was a relaxing day in camp after IPPT2 but was super disappointed. I kept grumbling abt my 2.4 timing. I was 2s slow for the gold standard. PTI said if get gold for IPPT2, IPPT3 no need to do. I dunno if there's ippt4 but if dun have then i cld have put in more effort for the bloody 2sec so tt i dun need to do the 3rd cos it's probably the last one. A total of 24/25 points, damn it.. Silver, my gold flew away. 2.4km gold is 9min44s but i got 9min46s. Considering it the 1st time i got sub 10min in my entire life, i felt slightly better. Im also felt unbelievable, i dint noe i can make it to a sub 10min. Kestrel has the chance of using the coastal route, better than running around the track, perhaps tt's one of the reasons.
For Standard Obstacle Course (SOC), it made me feel better a bit. I actually wanted to get a gold for ippt so tt i can blog abt it tgt wif my soc. SOC timing to pass is 7min 14s. Bmt doesnt have the 700m rundown, 50m instead. For command sch, we must finish within 9min29s (with 700m rundown). My timing is 5min 35s, stopped at 3 stations, because i had to wait for the slow ppl. I was in detail 26, 25 details in front of me but i overtook 3 details or so, (10ppl). Waited at low rope, gate, and low ramp. The attend B fella had to dig the sand b4 i can jump. Damn, why dig it when it's my turn to jump?? Wasted 20s, or i will have gotten 5min 15s. But anw, still platoon best timing, quite proud of it. Damn it, still cant forget abt my 2.4, if i ran faster by tt stupid 2sec, i wld have gotten full marks gold and platoon best for ippt. I shall push myself harder after field camp, cos after field camp fitness may drop.
Blogskin
1/2/09 12.00pm
I came across this cool blogskin, may be changing to it haha.
Quite An Eventful Day
1/2/09 11.11am
Wa, a few more hrs to booking in. Bking out too many days is not gd, luckily it's jus 1 and 1/2 day. Ytd was quite an eventful day. I met up wif Jy 1st, then zhunen came. We chat chat chat until she gotta go. Haha curious gal, kept asking about army life... Are u a spy?! Lol I feel closer to these 6D frens. As i've mentioned b4 they are frens tt i met with no motive. Jy suddenly thinking of running, haha so we went home to change into our attires, haha so on.. We met up soon, and he followed me with my 30 60. Lol, he said he wanna train wif army ppl. Ok, he got a taste of one of the trainings. 30 60 trains ur anaerobic respiration, hope it improves my 2.4km. IPPT2 coming up so i wanna get a sub 10 for 2.4km. Fighting for Command School. Who doesnt want OCS? Compared to bmt, OCS is 1000 times tougher, but i will strive on if i get into OCS, i wanna be recognised.. After our run, did push ups and pull ups. Jy is quite fit, army shldnt be a prob for u. Then i went home, my aunt and her children came to my hse shortly. We had steamboat tgt with wl. We played mj after watching huanted mansion. Slpt at 2+am, i cant help slping so late cos i feel tt book out time is so precious. Vday coming soon, i will be spending tt day in the jungle, counting stars. I will adapt to army life without motivation. Kinda losing this particular motivation. As in i have other motivations like OCS, family etc, but i mean this particular motivation. I will be back to blog soon.
Book Out!
31/1/09 1.21am
Oh tmr is feb le. Today was super rush. Training was tiring but i will never quit. More tiring events are coming up, so i shall get mentally prepared. Everyone is experiencing the same 'wearing out' effect so there is no excuse for me to quit. Army is a gd place, a man will think of his family more. He may use to take his family members for granted. At least now he can show more appreciations of the work tt his family members do for him. A boy will grow up to become a man one day and take on more responsibilities. Army inspires me to lead my life better. Hey im not brain-washed, i find army quite cool. More has yet to come, i shall explore and get a taste of it more.
As for my frens, i hope to see them but my bk out period is only ard one and a half day. There will be times when i wanna chat wif my gd frens. But some, or few, or perhaps one of them may seem to have nth much to tok abt. Ok, not too bad if it's just one fren, cos he/she may be insignificant, i still have many other frens. But no, i wont treat my fren this way. It's lonely to be alone, we need frens at times. Maybe we have some here and there, some are impt, others are more impt, yet others are insignificant. For the case of a person, whose world is only filled with him/herself, a bit lonely i think. Perhaps it may seem alright if there's entertainment? Not too bad, but while we enjoy any entertainment we have, have we neglected ppl ard us? Probably frens tt really wish to tok to u so much? Esp when he/she can only get a gd chance after a long wk of agenda? This kinda thing works for diff ppl, it depends on how each individual sees it. Alright this is smthg tt i feel. Maybe for diff ppl the ways of treating certain frens, be it impt or insignificant, are diff.
Reunion Dinner
25/1/09 6.39pm
I had my cny reunion dnr at uncle's hse. Same thg, nth much to tok abt. The different thg was i wore a cap there. 1st time gg there wif botak head. Haha i saw my p6 classmate at orchard mrt, she said, "Eh u botak alr ar?" Lol so funny lor. After dnr i went ah ma hse, quite long dint see her le.
Today i met up wif john and jieyang. So nice to see them. We had a gd chat at entertainment mac till abt 4+ then went to buy food to eat outside the centre. We tok a lot abt my life now. Haha they are so curious. Dun worry, will be ur turns soon.
Wad is this gally song doing in my blog? It used to be very familiar to me...

5/1/09 8.35pm
LOL, quite long didnt see john alr. Today we went orchard and walked our way to PS. He was complaining that the fare is so exp now haha. I miss my 45cents trips. I havent go centerpt for so long, we went there to look at clothes. I hate to be outside on a rainy day. We walked to PS then went to the foodcourt for food. Yeah duck rice and honeydew sago. How will i feel or wad will i be thinking the night b4 NS? I probably have no time to blog abt it. Miss fren/s? Or wanna call fren/s? Anw john and i took a photo b4 my hair got shaved! lol
I Feel Weak =(
4/1/09 8.35pm
I feel nua leh... In april 2008, my 2.4 training was 10min30+s but now today 2009, it became 11min13sec. Maybe im not a short dist runner. 9min 30sec target seems to be too difficult for me. After that went gym. Did my routine then met up wif jy and wl again. Another tiring day.
Miss Sch
3/1/09 11.23pm
There were 6 of us playing bball, nth much abt the bball part. Dunno why i wanna take photos of the sch, i miss sch. Diff ppl go sch for diff reason, wad's mine? There will be photos uploaded later. Jy, wl, yc, kok, ky and me played ball. We are known for the pugi gang, dun mess wif us.. 4got to take photo tgt.. We play wif some MIC (made in china) ppl, 3 rounds, i feel bad that we bullied them all 3 rounds. Come on, pugi power, who can defeat us? We are united in bball.. After tt we played on our own at the other side of the court, then helped wl wif the low wall. Come on wl(not my bro, my class de)! U gotta overcome ur fear.. After tt i decided to attempt the daring move.. butterfly twist (360 degrees spin, body parallel to the grd) Haha yc and jy were wif me, i only spin 270 degrees in midair, 90 more. Jy was saying tt i dun wan my life! Lol, he said i was daring.. But ok la, we always need to take a step to do a daring thing sometimes, for example giving ur number to a gal? Just an example, dun try it if u will shake ur hands lol. We took bus home tgt, such a rare occasion to go back wif yc. He sorta got prob wif his ezlink, bt it was settled. Here are the photos
My way to sch

Too bad cant take photos of LTs, each place has its own memories. I wish everythg can happen again.
I like this corridor, It reminds me of my night studies. A place tt I wld walk after saying bye. A place tt I wld turn back after a fren walks away...
What A Tiring Day...
3/1/09 10.48pm
Imagine a super duper tired person, who had no more energy to move after making his way to the room for the bed. Haha, eh i switched on the cooler, then went to rest, but WHY were my feet feeling cold, and i was holding on to air-con remote? I realised the aircon was on but i didnt on it! I cant recall switching the aircon on, only the cooler. Ok then my brain was like a bit 'ruan' as if a lot of weird things are happening in the hse, dunno why i started to fear there are other ppl in the hse, thght i was alone. After knowing tt my sis and wl were at home, i felt better, and more awake. I left my subway in the living room b4 slping leh. Bought foot long, 3 cookies and additional 2 packets of blueberry shortbread near sch. Tok abt sch in the next post, with photos of memories. This morning i woke up early again to watch my favourite childhood show, then went out wif dad to yishun for some 'bai bai' purpose at a mini temple. For NS de, the shifu said i must smile more. I dunno how to smile, very hard for me to smile naturally. It was still early b4 my bball game in sch, so i went to shop ard yishun. I went to northpt and one mall near northpt. I went to play 2 rds of daytona so sian, then made my way to AMK hub, took bus to sch, yin cheong was there the earliest, so i got ready for my ball game...
Oh ya, dun ask me 6 inches or foot long for my bread, i may accidentally say i wan 6 foot long.. lol
Always On The Run
2/1/09 10.42pm
Today went to run wif jy and wl again, but this time it is long dist slowwww jog, we didnt go very fast. Thinking tt im a marathon runner, 15 rounds shld be peanuts for me. Outer lane, each rd abt 444m, so 15rounds is abt 6.66km, not even 10km, less than 0.25 of my full marathon. It's fun overtaking ppl, i was wearing a motivating shirt..
After tt did a few other excercises at the stadium b4 heading off. Oh man stadium closes so early? 8.30pm only leh, eat snake sia. Stay fit! Healthy haha. I have no choice, gg NS soon so gotta train. Needa take my 2.4 timing soon b4 entering NS.
E.R.P
2/1/09 5.21pm
Interesting video, saw it from my bro's blog. Haha, i dun wan any trouble, it's from youtube, wan anythg go ask from them.
National Service
2/1/09 2.08pm
National Service? Service sector ar LOL! But why the treatment like this and the pay so low? Haha nvm i always aim for the higher. Training in OCS is tough i heard, but im gg in. I wanna be fit and take control. Watch me, the ambitious guy is coming.. Gonna force myself to run, train up my stamina. Weight carrying shld not be a prob thanks to gym. Another thing is waking up early to train. Hope hope hope i get use to it real soon in NS. Wad will be the 1st thing tt i wanna do b4 i enter NS the day b4? Not toking to my family members, saying bye to them is enough le. Haha.. Not saying bye to my frens.. They all noe im gg to ns, and i said bye to them alr, too many to call anw. Wad abt doing tt??... Wad? Dun tell u ppl.. Kaypo..
Happy 2009
1/1/09 10.25pm
1st post of the year 2009 =) I better get use to writing 2009, no more 2008. U see, we will nv be able to get back things/opportunites tt we might be given. I shall try to treasure ppl and things around me more, cos i feel tt i was too busy wif studies. Going iris' hse for countdown seems to be an annual thing haha. The same day last yr we met at her hse to countdn. It made me feel that 'wa, 1 yr just gone like this...' Nick wasnt able to make it for countdown again, this time he wasnt feeling well. The 3 of us watched the countdown, followed by 'dao huo xian' Zi Dan is quite cool in the show. He's the actor for Ip man. Huimin fell asleep haha, iris kept laughing dunno for wad. Both of us didnt dare to wake her up. We did a lot of random things beside her but her eyes were close. The 3 of us always so fun tgt, i will try to keep in touch while im in ns. We fell asleep after 5.35am, then woke up b4 10am. We went for bkf at tpy then went home.
I went home and played a few rds of viwawa chess. After tt met shiwei for window shopping, but i ended up spending. I thght i may not be spending while in ns so i spend now lor. Bought one adidas shirt for 49, like the words behind "Always On The Run". Bought another shirt and jeans, tio dok sia, after buying the jeans then qn myself why so exp! Then i see the shop name is called jeanperrie. Is it suppose to be some 'exp' shop?? Nvm la, kinda like the jeans also. Later went for pool, played 3 rounds only. Oh man im gg ns, have mercy on my hair, dun drag the shaver...ouch
8 More Days
30/12/08 12.45pm
If u are wondering why there is no archive, it's bcos i use the template to blog. When i just starting blogging, i use 'post' but it loads super slow, so i decided to use html, and i got used to it. So there wont be icon like 'comment', just tag at the tagbox.
Ytd i viewed some photos in my phone b4 falling asleep. They bring back memories, esp the days where decisions have to be made. Let me talk abt my class 0713. They can be fun, but i dunno why there's this thing stopping me from getting near them. Wad's this thing? I wondered.. Treat ppl sincerely can? Dun wear a mask la. I myself find it tiring wearing a mask, why make myself so tired?? But if u dun wear a mask in front of me, i wont do the same thing. 'U' as in generally the ppl ard me. It's hard to und a person. U wont know wad he/she is thinking. At times, if tt person accidentally offended u, just close one eye la, still can be gd frens after tt, dun hate tt person forever. Most imptly, dun lok down on ppl plz. No matter how smart u are, u will still have ur weak pts. Everyone has his/her weaknesses and strengths. I think if we can put aside some of these weak pts, the class can be more bonded.
8 more days.. I wish i can see my fren more often. Recently i have made this decision of not msging my fren, so as to make life easier for both of us. Also, my fren wont be trouble by my msg everyday. Dun worry yo, u wont receive anymore msg from me le! =) I dun wanna put u in a difficult position. As a fren, i will always be here for u. Well, tt depends whether u wanna ring me up at times if u need. I do have a lot to tok abt wif u, but u dun seem to have the time, and u made me feel tt im bothering u with my msgs. I often feel like im toking to myself, cos i dun see myself getting the type of replies tt i shld have gotten. Perhaps, tt's ur own way of staying away from me ya? Dun worry man, im different, i noe wad to do. Just wan u to be happy alrite? Missed tt chance, it could have happened. I could have gotten the chance to treasure u, be there for u most of the time. Take care fren =)
Growing Up, I Will
28/12/08 12.46am
Peeps, if u are here, tag.. My blog looks quite dead. Weiliang and sis for example, noe u two will bloghop, tag! Say hi at least. K, u noe, every one is different and unique. Me, i have a bad temper, not really gd wif socialising. Today, it was sorta my 1st time, sitting tgt wif a grp of ppl, chatting and sharing meaningful things. Though im not a christian, i see that some of the things they have mentioned are worth thinking abt. Ok, i wasnt mature enough for a relationship, was rushing thru things. But i learned from my mistake. How do i noe? I can see that things are different. 'It's best to stay as gd frens if u like a person, till there is no obligation to love him/her'-John Tan En Rui lol. Wow haha. A relationship is not like 'oh, i got u, end of story'. If the person u like doesnt reply to ur msg, or dun msg u on his/her own, do it urself. If he/she doesnt reply, or takes a long time to reply, u wait, surely he/she has smthg on. If u msged him/her the night b4 but he/she dozed off but doesnt reply the next day, wad wld u do? He/she is the one worth waiting for, respect her own personal life, she has the right to reply or not. Cant help it if he/she cant feel ur existence, as long as u are serious wif him/her, nth else matters. If he/she doesnt share the same feeling as u, stay as frens, just be there for him/her. U can be very serious with him/her, but action speaks louder than words, do smthg for him/her. U need chances as well, but smtimes u gotta make chances for urself. The person may have attracted u, but u may not attract him/her, u cant force this. For me, if i have chances, few outings are happy enough for me. As least i can rmb the happy moments tgt. Even simple things can make ur day. See him/her smile for example. Random thghts. Actually i just realise sm of the things i mention here have no link?? Im complicated, as all human beings are. U cant really noe wad ppl are thinking, tt's why there are ppl studying on how ppl think. Sometimes u wish for tt someone to be able to noe wad u are thinking. The only way is to tell him/her. But wad are the consequences? He/she keeps away from u? Feel uncomfortable wif u ard? Life is just tough sometimes, tt's why i think i have more to learn from this journey. I hope one day i noe how to express myself, cos im just typing wad's in my mind now, and they are all jumbled up.
Wow, i woke up 10min b4 9, went to wl's hse, then played badminton at 1pm. I lost my agility lol. After tt went for a party, ya tt one wif a lot of ppl to chat and share things wif. I went for a swim, realised t i can still swim lol. Wl and sis, seeing both of u in the pool tgt did make me jealous, didnt feel like swimming towards u two at times. I can wait.., unless im not allowed to.
Xmas Eve
24/12/08 10.57pm
Thght im spending my day at home after meeting my fren. Though no countdown, my fren was there. =) My fren actually needed to go off early, but dunno why i thght my fren will receive a call, lol so qiao, then free le. In the end we went from bugis to sim lim. I really like walking ard wif this fren. Sometimes funny things happen, then we can walk here and there again, haha, but i just like it. I wish i can continue walking with this fren everywhere, as long as we dun get blisters, but 14 more days to NS. Another movie ticket to keep, another day to rmb. U're a nice fren, i hope we can continue keeping in touch. No matter wad i wish u all the best, take care, i will make an effort to keep in touch. Army is scary because of u, not the physical training. Hope to see u very soon.
X'mas
23/12/08 11.48pm
Tmr is x'mas eve. No plan for countdown. Im a person who doesnt make an effort to keep in touch wif frens. Given my character, i have few frens. Sry, i will try to be a better person. Actually staying up late for countdown outside is a tiring thg. U will be troubled wif transportation. I hate to take taxi pass midnight. I failed my gp, and i didnt do well for the rest of my subjects, im prepared to go poly. Sorta wasted 2 yrs, but im glad meeting frens there. Ya right, results aint out yet u might question, but my instincts are accurate..
Vivo
22/12/08 10.38pm
Wa, i see the calendar then i start to panick. Im only left with 16 more days b4 NS! Today went out wif huimin and iris. We went one lvl higher and higher haha. Very fun outing. Saw weihan, didnt noe why i got excited to see him. He's a gd fren, sad tt i dun have more time to tok to him, wanna noe him better. Ha, he working at National Geographic, didnt noe. Quite curious abt the shop, next time i shall go see.
Dunk It!
22/12/08 12.20am
Haha, today i finally get to touch bball. Met up wif an old fren, quite long didnt see him le. While waiting for ur fren at the court, if u can dunk, hang on the ring, then walk away, dun look back at the ppl, disapear for a while. Soon, when ur fren arrive at the court, make an entrance, just head to the other side of the court. When u pass by other bballers, u will hear, "eh! he's back!", "he can dunk!". Wifout further ado, ur fren passes u the ball, and u dash towards the ring, and u will hear, "lai liao! lai liao! kan! kan!" in mandrin. After slamming the ring, u hear, "wa kao!" damn siok... Actually i cant really jump, my dunk wasnt nice at all, saw my video and it kinda sux, bt i will try to improve =)
24 Hrs A Day Is Not Enough
17/12/08 8.41pm
A lvl passed, nov passed, xmas coming, ny coming, dec ending, then NS IS COMING!! Why so fast?! Why so fast?! WHYYY??... lol, too bored.. Who knows where to buy helicopter model tt is fixed by urself and can fly?
6D outing =)
12/12/08 5.20pm
This is probably the last time tt im gg to see them. frens with no motives, frens tt always have topics to share continuously. I only love going out wif them, other than with my cj frens. Sorry tt i set the time at 11am, didnt noe u guys are so punctual lol. Pasir Ris seems to be a nice place to go, had pool there, took some pictures and went to town. S'pore really doesnt have much places to visit. Maybe let's visit sentosa for the next outing, if there is, or we can play some games, something interesting like the one we had later on. We went dg to see mr lee off for a meeting, he joined us back at Seoul Gardens for dinner. We were so glad to see so many ppl turning up for this outing. 22 ppl, out of 45, including mr lee. Seoul garden is super nice place to have our dinner tgt. There will always been so much fun whenever we visit there, we will be the noisiest. We played 'floating egg'. Float the egg shell on the soup, then put food inside, if it sinks, the fella gotta eat the contents inside! Super fun, all laughing like mad, and it's super exciting. then we 'improved' the game, transfer drinks into it using straws, so tt we can control the amt of content inside. i noe the trick to this game so i was the only one who wasnt forfeited. Loser has to eat well mixed peanuts with all sorts of chilli spices and garlic.. Wow their mouths stink. I videoed some of their faces when they eat the gruesome thing. We purposely digged a lot of the mixture, losers had to eat them all at one go, no drinking of water for 20s. Lol, after the thing all guys who participated when toilet to rinse their mouths. While in the lift, they purposely 'HARRRRR....' lol, noe wad i mean, wa stinks.... Then we went mr lee's hse! Haha one of his rooms is n a mess. We flipped thru his wedding photos, then chat a bit haha, reached home at 12.30am. Photos are on frenster. Wonderful outing, there's actually more to these..
Details of my run
7/12/08 6.58pm
Pix are on frenster. Today has been the day tt i anticipated. Thanks Albert and ur dad for fetching me and shiwei to the baggage deposit area. Didnt train for the race, here's the regret. But even if i trained well, i will still be crippled la... The race started at 5.30am, reached there by 5am. We crossed the starting line at 5.31am, cos we were behind. For the run, the front 16km was ok, non-stop, breathing normal, everythg was alright. I lost shiwei at dunno which km marker. I kept turning back but cldnt see him, sorry wei, i ps u. i rmb reaching 17/18km when i saw junhong's fren Dong lin. I walked with him till we exited ecp at 30km marker. Hope ur knees will be ok soon. We tried to run, but the cramps kept coming back, excruciating ones, unbearable.. The stretch of ecp path was bloody long, the scariest part of our race. There was only one single direction, but it didnt seem to end. After exiting ecp, i ran another 2km non-stop, luckily cramp didnt come back. Means i reached 32km, still had 10km. 10km was a lot for me. Imagine finishing 30km, there was still 10km. I was running alone, running alone didnt feel gd. Sorry tt i ps both of u. I entered Sg indoor stadium area, gotta go one super big round. When i came out, i walked, seriously cldnt run anymore. I was just counting 1km by 1km. I was optimistic, cos i noe i will eventually reach the finishing line. Every step i make, im closer to the finishing line. Every pain i feel then, i will in turn get back the pride later. My ankles seemed to be giving up, 'breaking'.. I wanna tell myself to run the remaining 4km when i see 38km marker. I still cldnt overcome the pain. Even walking was strenuous. My lungs are ready for another run but my legs were not. I was disappointed, wanted to finish in at most 5hr30mins, but i completed in an addition of 1hr+.. But then we all felt, completing it was all tt it mattered. Dong lin was disappointed too. He's a gd runner, but he injured his knees. He came to realise tt we shldnt be too hard on ourselves. We are only 18, the youngest full marathon runners.. Wad do we expect from ourselves? We had no experiences, hasnt been to NS. But we are considered fit compared to a lot of other ppl he said. True.. We shldnt be pushing ourselves too hard at times. I got emotional for the 1st time, felt like crying, when my mind thght tt 'ck, u shld be proud of urself, u completed such a distance alr, finish the rest of the distance. u had come so far, dun give up' u may think im consoling myself, but tt mindset was really wad i needed. I ran the last few km myself, no one offered me any encouragement, i was really feeling helpless. i entered city, saw farrari cars 1st, some garage. I wanna run the last 2km, but still cldnt! I tried to let my legs recover 1st, so i walked.. Saw this lady, i asked her for time, 12pm. Wow, 6.30 hours alr... The fact tt im still left wif 1km 195m++, more than 1km 300m actually. Then i saw this same caucasian tt i saw earlier, he said "come on, dun stop! smell the finishing linnneee.." He wasnt toking to me, but i heard his words, i got inspired, i ran... I finished the rest of the distance in 3minutes plus. finished ard 6hrs33mins. The finishing line was asking me to step on it.. so i gave all i have.. Equivalent to more than 3 rds on track, i sprinted the 195m. This was the 2nd time i almost cried.., but i held my tears. Why do i get so emotional? I think cos it's considered a big race in my life, and i conquered the race. This event thght me a few things. The heading on the posters is 'run ur own race' Perhaps if u are sporty enough, run ur own race, experience it urself haha.
I can see wad it's coming to.. My things dun concern u right.. I know.. Cant help it.. Feel so sad that some things cant happen..
Marathon!
7/12/08 5.33pm
Kinda excited, but i noe my legs will hurt. I feel so crippled now. My timing was disappointing, perhaps i shldnt have stopped after 16/17km. Once stopped, the muscles will start to cramp... Me and my frens suffered the next many km. It is a meaningful event, maybe will run 42 again. For now, I guess i will be crippled the next few days..
Prom Night
4/12/08 6.32pm
Only free to blog now. Had a great dinner, enjoyed the performance, then went to walk here and there, at clarke quay, sent wrong msg, then finally settled down at a pub, forgot the name. I dun drink, just stone there wif few others. Then went to mac, the one at clarke quay river. then we slacked there till abt 5.30 then walk to raffles mrt station. Reached home at 6.30, bathed, uploaded pic on frenster, slept at 8am, woke up at 11am. Ate a bit, went iris' hse, huimin was there too. Enjoyed my time there, 6pm went home. Too much to blog. Overall i had a great full day, so wanna make it short.
Everythg will not be the same if... how i wish... Counting down to Standard Chartered marathon 42.195km, i will survive...

A Cut In My Heart
17/4/08 7.37pm
"It is painful to score 3As for 3H2, but failed gp..." -Mr Kwek, my principal. Damn, i see ppl with Bs and Cs entering honour roll. F***, why i fail gp, i could have been in top 10 (AAA)(DDB) ranking point 70... I will make a comeback.. Goal for midyr is triple A and pass in gp and econ. Honour roll, i am determined to get u one day..

9/4/08 11.50pm
Here's my block test results, after studying so hard.. My 3 H2 finally paid off, as most of u may have alr noe.. The percentiles at the far right means % of ppl that i beat. For chem, maths and phy the percentiles are rather high, but i didnt badly for my H1s, so i will work on them more. Eventually, i got myself a full house Ace, not bad anyway. Ranking point is quite low, 62, if i pass boith H1s i could have gotten 70 and honour roll, too bad fail gp, can only eat spring roll. Nvm, i shall try harder for midyr.. Strive!

Carnival & Own Personal Post
30/3/08 2.50pm
Ytd ny had sports carnival. It's held at CCAB? Lol, i dun bother to find out where, near botanical garden jiu dui le. 6 of us took part in frisbee. Some time b4 the game started, we trained lol. I like frisbee damn lot, it reminds me of cj! I was trained in frisbee during PE. But an individual's strength is not enough to win, it needs teamwork!. From ytd's game, i can see the teamwork in my team. Of cos, we won, jus like last year. Thanks to Sohee, who can catch very well haha. It was a thrashing, 10:2, at 1st they scored 2 consecutive pts, each by a guy. (if gal catches, it's 2 pts) But it did not decrease our morale la. Everyone did well! Good job =)
On the same day, I was told early in the morning by a classmate, that i scored an A for phy, i was quite uncertain. Cos I heard there are only 2 As in the class. Another fren tld me the same thing, Ok then startingt to believe. After the carnival, i happened to see my form teacher, also my phy teacher. He smiled at me and said i got 80, i was damn high inside me LOL. It's a tie with another classmate lol, such a coincidence. Yeah i have been improving =p
30/3/08 2.47pm
I dun like to use 'post', i use html to blog. So i dun have 'archives'
28/3/08 2.16am
This is wad i have been waiting for... An outing wif my brothers, watched shutter, quite the same storyline as the thai version. Wa, recently i have been spamming ghost movies, siao... Next we searched the whole pennisula shopping centre for bro's belt and my shoes. Wad a nice place, we found both. After dinner at ps, it was archade time, lol. I am addicted to daytona recently leh, maybe due to the driftings. We parted at 9, sad. Wonder if we can meet up again soon haha =)
Class Outing??
27/3/08 12.16am
Sorry km, misunderstood u as the anonymous guy. I shldnt assume, my bad... Today marks the last day of block test. Went to Mind Cafe with 8 of my male classmates. It's a pretty nice place, jus opp paradiz centre. We stayed there from 2 to 6, played a lot of games. The cafe has a wide variety of games, do visit, a lot of celebrities visit too. After that went to have dinner with hao and amos, then play Daytona! i super enjoy drifting... We played pool as well.. Quite a tiring day.. Gotta enjoy as much as i can, i think work is coming my way again...
Rule #1 Rules
22/3/08 9.28pm
Ytd, i spent the whole day out wif my brothers. We watched rule #1, all of us were scared... lol no la, jus having fun. Haha, 1 of them said that we shld jus punch that fella who touches u when u are watching a ghost movie. lol, he said dun wait, jus punch. It's a nice movie, i am a spoiler, but i wont disclose the story line here la. Watch it, for those who have life, and not always facing electronic devices. Lol.. Yeah, i went shopping ytd too. I tried so many cool shirts lol, looking for smthg nice to wear during prom night. Splendid is the theme, how splendid shld i wear? Haha, still have so much time, dun have to worry now actually.
There Are Losers In This World
22/3/08 9.20pm
I watched rule #1 ytd, talk abt this movie in the next post. The rule is there are no ghost in this world. Ya, but there are losers in this world. Some losers who will comment on certain things, insensibly. Jus becos u tok a lot abt studies, ur emo times, they will comment on it. These losers are jus purposely picking a fight. No worries man, jus choose a date, u pick ur chopper, i pick my broadsword. Lol, jus kidding, no resorting to violence. I think these losers are jus immature bah, purposely critiising ppl. others give them umpteen times for them to be frens, but they jus forgo the chances. No point la.. True that there is freedom of speech, but plz think lor, dun say things without thinking of the consequences. Grow up. I know who u are, jus like how mr pun told that poor attitude teacher. Ya, only u noe wad im toking abt hor, other readers wont know.
Sorta End Of Block Test?...
20/3/08 8.07pm
It passed so soon.. End of impt papers alr, cos next week is only MCQs.. I finished chem paper 30mins early, phy paper 40mins early, but there is still limited buffer for As. I guess i wont reach my target again, gotta eat spring roll with my brothers. Today i finally got back my life. I watched step up 2, play pool, enjoyed fun time with my frens from a different class. is triple A battery so hard to get? Cant wait for the MCQs to be over...

How to get there?... Hmm i took a cab to j8 and waited for my fren to fetch me. Hh, gab, me and ch were in the same car, crapping. We reached there early so we went M Sq toilet. B4 the run, we passed our bags to Jun Hong. Luckily we had him there. Thanks =) I dun feel nervous, cos there are damn lots of ppl plus i have my frens running wif me. We jogged and jogged, then wonder how i got to marina bay, then back to raffles place then went to the highway then u-turn back to the finishing point. Quite fun man.. After the run, we all ached but we wont mind joining again next yr. Not bad for a 1st timer like me. I did no training, and was so surprised tt i can finish in 2:37:25 If i train, i might hit less than 2:10:00 cool..
Say cheese!
Tt's all folks. Oh ya, u can get damn lot of free 100-plus there.

13/10/07 12.44am
Wa siao, so long nv blog liao. more than a month. Ok la, was busy wif promos, and disappointed with my results, so i didnt wanna go home on tt day i got them back. Ever since promo was over, i dun feel like studying anymore. I dunno if tt marks the end of my fighting spirit.. Dun argue, it's really gone, no one can noe better than me, dun think too higher of urselves tt u can argue wif this. Not a single A, honour roll has turned into spring roll. Go and die hypocrites... I hate these kinda ppl. During O lvls it happened, now promos.. I hate losers winning me. I wan to own PCM. Dunno why maths did until like shit, i can jus throw away tt paper.. Chem was disappointing. Im very angry cos im jus one mark away from A, and i found many unnecessary mistakes... Really a lot of unnecessary mistakes... Phy Mcq and paper 2 was disappointing... I got a B for phy. Well, jumped up 2 grades, but y only B? Econs, i dunno wad went wrong for case study, i did well for essay... Gp, i did better than midyr.. Chinese dropped a lot.. Over all, improvement for 3 of the core subjects. this blog is so... Nvm, i dun wan ppl to visit anyway. It's all secrets here. Finally, F*** off wif PW
1/9/07 12.05am
today, ny had a special celebration at the field... picnic! haha:
then i went back to bty.. I didnt manage to see mr lim, my chinese teacher.. sob.. I tok a pic with mr koh, maths teacher. he is retiring.. Oh man.. why why why.... wont see him anymore... wont get a chance to attend lesson in the classrooms of bty le..
After tt, i went central wif my classmates, then go home mug... life is so sian...
18/8/07 12.40am
A moment ago, my birthday ended.. haha.. Was suprised to received msgs and etc the night b4.. This afternn came a surprise-cake. It's from my ny classmates.. We obviously 'had fun' with the cake.. Oh man my uniform... Cream all over my face... My fren's face... Ruined.. Muhahaha
After the long, tiring and cold sch day, i met up wif my bro and went home. I bathed then both of us went to PS. Stroll here and there, why arent they there yet i thght.. then came another bro, then cousin, then cj whole gang of classmates.. Woohoooo!!!... It was supposed to be my treat for dnr, but they insisted paying.. Kinda strange for bdae boy to pay. Then we 'had fun' with the food.. Had a lot of laughters, i feel most comfortable wif them. After dnr, the group of 4 brothers went to rush some hour.. It was so funny, i cant describe.. go watch it urself.. It was 11.30pm after the whole thing ended.. Tired, went home, bathed, now using com.. Looking at teh presents from various frens and card from cj classmates.. 13 of ur signatures. It's a record! Been so long since so many of us gather tgt again.. Thanks ny and cj classmates. Thanks relatives and frens. Thanks my mum, jus now was her 17th anniversary of pain... Bro thanks for the shirt, it fits well. I wld wear it during our next outing..

Oh wad was the date ytd?... Oh ya, how can i forget?... 13 It reminds me of jason movies... A lot of unpleasant things happened.. Majority of te class pon lecture on thurs, in the end principal visited our class. We arent the only class which pon lor. Jus dunno y out class was called to stay back after lect tt day, and we werent able to do so, only 5 were there... It was clearly seen tt we have a traitor among us, among the 5... No doubt, dun qn, we are knew it... Tt bastard didnt dare to come it the classroom when he was behind the principal and form teacher. Oh well, they came tgt... The atmosphere was tense... Very... The fella still had the mood to smile even when we all knew tt the principal was angry.. This thing led to another bad thg.. A good-for-nothing fella in our class was expelled.. How great, my instinct came thru.. He doesnt come to sch, come and go as he's pleased. He had no intention to stay in ny anyway, her mum forced him to. He had 18, dsa or appealed in de. He signed the undertaking wif principal tgt wif his aunt and mum etc etc.. Wad's wif this kid? Dun wanna waste mt time on this. Great news tt he's expelled, bad news for the PW grp who has him. The grp was left wif 3ppl after another classmate left for poly.. Good game.. Then another fren of mine almost faced an accident.. Phew nth happened..

Today marks the start of the increment in GST to 7% haha. Luckily i paid for my shoes the day befor though it arrived today. Once again, 1T28 went out for an outing. It's hard finding tickets.. Played pool and watched it at marina sq. But it's kinda strange for this outing. Ppl looked sian and quiet. Anyway, the movie was gd. Tt's abt it...
21/6/07 10.30pm
Wow, 2 entries in one day. Jus happened that things come across my mind and i dun wanna forget them. Frens come and go, quite true.. Treasure them while they are still by ur side. It's not easy to look for 1 or 2 really best frens that will be wif u for long. If i have a chance, i will go thru every yr of my life, jus to be wif all my frens again. Now im missing cj classmates.. I regreted treating everyday as it is, a day comes and passes wifout much being done. No interaction with them. Now i cld no longer be in the same class as them. Those fun times were rmbed.. All i can do now is to organise outings.. Please come ppl...

Haha i almost forgot dewu will be on ch u 8pm show today. There was a close up on me and i was kinda shocked. It was far more interesting during the recording itself, more funny things happened. Haha, when i was watching, Angela suddenly appeared singing. The audience became other ppl. But then dewu ppl cut in again suddenly. This proves that angela wasnt there for the show, she was jus there to make a short appearance haha, her part was recorded on a different shedule. Nice opportunity to be there, though recording took place frm 7 to 11.30pm haha.

CCS is really SHIT! U see, is this really a singing competition? I doubt so.. It's a voting competition. It's all abt the level of popularity. At the end of the competition, all u can tell abt the winner is he/she has gotten a lot of votes from the frens.. Wad's the use of the judges this way? Their comments make insignificant difference to the 'voting system'.. If it's abt campus 'superstar', superstar as in popularity, then singing shld not be the only event in the competition. But y is it singing then? To find the best singer among competitors? If that is so, why is Chuan Wei(pinyin) 'voted' out instead of Junjie(pinyin)? Is he junjie? Im not sure too, coz i dun give a damn abt lousy singers. Actually, i dun even give a damn abt this CCS show... I may prefer CS(counter strike) instead. Change the name of the show to "campus voted star". Shldnt singing competition be based on selecting the best singer? Well, it's jus boring variety show to keep the boring students entertained.. Studies come 1st ppl, forget abt being a star, coz i wont last u long. Get a life, get a certificate, coz it will last u forever dude...
10/6/07 12.20am
Shldnt be feeling sad abt it. Gotta blame none other than myself for not treasuring those times. To sum up, im jus not ready.
Slacking all the way now..
5/6/07 1.03am
I went to watch shrek3 ytd and found it amusing. I didnt use to like shrek coz i didnt like the green ogre(is that how to spell?). Shrek3 is really farny and lame. Oh ya, i watched it with my class, tgt with ny students at a special price of $6, at suntec. After which, i went home =)
28/5/07 11.11pm
My gp midyr ended 2 days ago.. 25% of promo.... I jus dun wanna fail... At least a 'D' k? After that, to celebrate for that, i went to my fren's hse nearby my sch for sm shows. Then met up wif another fren to watch Pirates. That movie kinda dragged but i do have to agree tt it's exciting. When Chou Yun Fat (did i spell his name correctly?) said: " Welcome to Singapore", many clapped! It was my 1st time hearing claps in a theatre, not to mention at the end of the show.. Pool time after tt. Kinda rusty liao.. Then went home.. zzZZZ

Another busy wk has passed. What's worse than a physically and mentally demanding week? I couldnt help closing my eyes during some lifeless lectures and tutorials but i managed to pull myself back from dreamland. Napha test, phy lect test, chem spa, chinese oral, all on this wk.. Morning run, odac training, these are all 'parasites'. For napha, i finally pushed myself, but not to a great extent, with sheer determination to obtain an A for the 1st time. Wad a weak me... Alrites, finally 30/30. I had sm surprises for myself.. Improvemens are: SBJ from 275 to 280+ (wooohoooo), 4 X 10m break 9.38 hit 8.9!, too tall for the pull up bar, cant stretch out legs, 13 only. Since napha is over, i hope we get to play games during PE lessons. It's so boring running ard.. Only fuzzy wazzy likes to do tt. (Heex)
12/5/07 12.20am
It has been so long since i last blogged. Many thgs had happened since the last entry. Tests shld be the stressful thg. I had 4 tests in last wk. But those tests are nth compared to miidyr. I must mug, cant go genting wif my parents ard june.
Ytd marked the last epi of 'Engine', a very nice jap drama showing kimura takuya. Go find out if u dunno. Only 11 epi, plus the last epi was touching. Oh man.. i didnt expect tt the ending cld turn out so gd. He was winning the F3 race but due to unforseen circumstances, smthg went wrong. The wind cutter or so called thgy came off, then the whole vehicle went skidding in rds. Some workers are supposed to toll his vehicle back, but he decided to push it to the finishing line. The crowd was touched by tt. This showed his pasion for F1 race. His principle is no matter wad, one must complete his race. Even though he didnt win the race, it taught us a lesson tt winning other ppl is not impt, wad's impt is to conquer urself. Well, go catch it urself, i dun wanna be a spoiler.
Today is the 1st day of kayak course. It turn out fun, and easy, coz i was frm canoe. Tmr will be another lesson. For 1 star, there are the capsize drill, which i managed to pass after the 1st trial. Then there was this climbing back to the seat if u capsize thgy. Fun la, i will go again during the holidays coz there will be a yr's membership. Today also very rush sia. After kayak gotta go mediacorp watch the recording of "Yin Yue Ge Dou Chang" The hosts and guests are so farny. Jus be sure to catch the 12th epi. Coz the wushu team went. So obvious, coz we were all wearing the old fashion shirt. There is this part tt took a lota time. Once 1st season campus superstar lousy singer kept having NG. Then kept wasting the tape. Well, it's ok.. Tt 1hr show took more than 4 hrs to record... NG here and there. Yawn.. Goatta wake up early tmr again, gg to slp.
22/4/07 8.40pm
It was drizzling when i was waiting for my frens. Gab's mum offered to bring us to east coast. Thx! We had bitching session during the journey. Hehe so fun.. We reached the mac early, had our dnr, then gathered for instructions. We were divided into grps, 9 ppl including 2 ics frm innova weixiang and gary. New frens made in the grp: Angeline, edwin i alr noe, peak siah and 3 ij ppl frm other cca. We settled our bikes and helmets, then set off. We cycled until an area which is for practicing. So troublesome.. Then we set off grp by grp after staying there til ard 12.10am. We went to the kallang river toilet then set off to the stadiums then main rd. We rode pass fort rd. Then i didnt really memorise all the rd names. I only felt tt my butt hurt. At ard 1.30am we reached Telok Blangah Hill. It's a creepy place, they said tt Huang Na the china little gal's body was found there. It's giving me the creeps now... There's huanted mansion up the hill. We went there to take pix. Wa, we were damn scared.. There is this lighted security rm beside the mansion... The photographer ic asked us to go forward one by one to go look thru the window. Siao! Later smthg suddenly appear then we will be screaming like hell liao. But there was nth la, jus sm clothes and a chair, like a person is staying there. I think tt person is supposed to look after the mansion, then wasnt ard at the time becoz he is in the mansion. Or.....muhaha....he cld be there....waving to us in the rm....but we jus cldnt see...haha..... We made our way dn, jus hoped tt nth will happen.. We left soon after tt then cycled to NUS. It's like we didnt really take a long time to reach the west leh. This shows tt sg is small. We carried our bikes up to LT3. Wa 4.17am still hav ppl mugging.. After the quite long break we went to have prata. Tt was at 5am. We set off again at 6am. The journey back was all straight rd, no uphill nor dnhill, so we dun hav to change gears. Changing gears was so cool lor haha. Dnhill very fun. We cycled a long long way, like nv ending trip, passed by suntec and vivo again. The ic who offered to lead us was like so hao lian, cycle wif his grp so fast until we cld not catch up. Our grp was separated by a red light.. 9 left 4 haha. Our ic behind me didnt noe the way well, but luckily we didnt go the wrong way like another half in front of us. I felt tt the 4 of us were gg thru those tgt, felt so gd. We cycled up the expressway, then passed by esplanade then rode towards the national stadiums. I then took the lead coz the ij ic didnt really noe the way. Then out of nowhere other grps came oso. But we really didnt see them on the expressway coz the whole of it only had 4 of us. We followed the grp back to east coast. We stopped at east coast for a break, then went to return bikes. We had a debrief, then went mac for bkf. This trip was damn fun la. Odac rox, i hope i can get in. I wan another cycle like this haha. Very tired..
17/4/07 12.05pm
U r probably the fren tt i feel more comfortable wif frm the start. But maybe as time passes, u get along better wif others. I feel ps-ed. Jus like today, and any other days... I dun feel gd.. The event tt happened today made me feel tt history is gonna repeat again... I will try to conquer this prob...
15/4/07 10.45pm
Wo wo, today is so fun. I went out early in the morning, to yishun safra for rock climbing. We had the theory part 1st, then lunch then practical. Yeah, we get to climb the slack wall 1st. There were 2 walls and i took the steeper one. It's fun and siok. The stupid weather spoilt the fun. I was having fun with the tallest wall then.. I like to hang up in the air, so i asked the belayer to hold me there, hehe.. After this course was completed, the people are certified to pass lvl 1 climbing. I think there are 2 free climbs, but i dun think i have the time, sad..
14/4/07 10.15pm
Wow, today when i went for pool wif a fren, one amazing thg happened. The way that the 2 balls collided wasnt according to the law of collision/dynamics in phy. A ball was alr blocking a corner hole, blocking my black ball. My black ball was at an angle to it. My white ball was quite far away. Initially i thght i cld jus help my fren shoot in his ball 1st, so tt the hole wld then be empty and i cld shoot my black ball to win. However, both of us were damn shocked when i hit the black ball. It went towards his ball, at an angle, supposed to hit it in, but sorta switch direction wif it! The thg happened so fast tt we cant figure out how it was done. As in his ball kena hit out, and my ball went in! I was stunned for quite some time. U guys noe how the cushion ard the corner hole is like, i really cant tell how the black ball rebound. Is the laws of phy unable to apply to this situation? Amazing..
12/4/07 10.06pm
Last entry was abt the 1st 1 week i had in ny. Now it's has been more than a mth! I've not been blogging lo. I joined odac today, then the 1st thg they do is sm perspiring PT then 500 accumulated pull-ups.. Ya, it's kinda difficult for all the other boys i wld say. Other than the j2s, many of the rest needed to be assisted, others didnt need coz then only did a few. It took us a long time to complete the 500.. I only provide 12 for 1st time, 13 for the 2nd, and 10 for the last, coz it was alr 490, and i offered to help. Wa, now i gotta sacrifice every mon for 2.4km
One mth has past.. Im telling myself a lot of thgs. But y is it that i always feel so anxious when my hp vibrates? And when i discover the senders, i wld always feel dn all of a sudden, like the heart drop frm dunno how many floors.. It's no longer the same as b4. How shld i say it? It's like maybe it has ben a mth, so the fresh feeling isnt there anym? It may also be tt the prob doesnt lie in me. There are other possibilities i thght of, jus that im having mental block now, so cant rmb. Wad can i do now? I dun wanna iritate any1. Perhaps at most wad i can do is waving? Am i in a rash to give myself tt problem? Some preparation has been progressing slow.. Im at a lost.. Shld i continue it? Use another reason for the preparation? Actually i noe i shldnt appear, im a distraction. But anyway, i noe the attention isnt on me..
17/3/07 11.06pm
One wk of studying in ny has past. Life is still ok. Today i went out for pool and mr bean. i saw many familiar faces during the outing, but i jus kept been unfriendly to everyone of them. I saw a cj gal who was frm beatty oso, and stays at my blk. When i went home, i saw her again. I dunno her so i didnt say hi, tt's quite alrite. When i was gg to take mrt home, i saw my cj orientation facil, but i dao him, coz of a past experience. I dun think he noes y i dun wanna tok to him. Then when i was abt to reach home, i saw my pri sch maths teacher, i did say hi, but didnt really noe wad to say but managed to tok for a little little while. Then when i walk a little bit more dist, i saw a sec 4 guides member. Nv say hi, though i somehow noe her. Am i jus unfrenly or mood swing or wad? Dunno sia, all craps..
17/3/07 11.06pm
Today i was looking forward to the outing.., wif some sec sch frens of mine. I was thinking tt, "Oh, finally a successful outing." Coz previous outings werent successfully organised. However, when i 1st met one of them, he jus gave me tt bloody damn face, wif his earpieces stucked in his ears. I was so f***ed up especially when i tried to tok to him, but he jus finished me off wif some weird: hmh, ern, or wadeva sound. Dao me, so i dao him back, i got the earpieces stucked into my ears too. Then bloody hell, when the gals came then he bullshit all the crabs and lobsters.. Though i noe tt he is like tt, i cant accept dis kinda attitude. He mood swings so bloody much.. Is tt the way to treat ur frens? And when playing pool, still got the earpieces stucked in ur ears.. Cant u jus give ur attention to ur frens? Shit u, u have all the chances to listen to the songs whenever u wan, not tt they will disappear in ur mp3 rite? To make matter worst, another fella took own sweet time to turn up for the outing.. 1stly, this shows tt the person has no interest in the outing. 2ndly, show no respect for the ppl waiting.. Hello? No matter how tired or wad so eva u r, u shld jus tell so tt the time can be changed rite? 3rdly, this mistake is made almost 98% of the outings.. 4thly, no need to say, punctuality is one of the most impt thgs in life. If u are late, it simply shows the attitude u have and the type of insincere person u r... U still sounded enthu abt the outing b4.. Late for 1 and a half hour, plus almost alwaes late, wad's the reasons/excuses/problems u hav? Paisae for sounding like this here, smthg wrong wif me today too..
Then, after the boring outing, i went to queensway shopping central myself, coz i heard tt the clothes there are cheap. So i bought myself some clothes.. Tt's all, i think a little cheaper than other places only la.
16/3/07 8.02pm
The level camp jus ended today. The class had great fun ytd. We played 'conquest' & 'matrix'. In 'conquest', it is a war-like game, smthg like the lord of he ring. Being the captain, i had to lead my troop(9 ppl) tru various obstacles/stations. Truout the whole journey, we kena bombed water bags badly. In the end, i think 3 blind folded(initially 4) survived. They were the code breakers, and were supposed to obtain the code frm 4 water-filled balloon, one of which was a booby trap. In 'matrx', it was jus a memory game. We gotta memorise 20 steps in a sq area, which was divided into more sqs. We were asked to step of the sqs duh..
Today, we played,'amazing race' ard the sch. Being the cap, i gotta lead. And i didnt noe tt someone took my photo until i watched the photos taken in the past 2 days in the hall. Kinda shocked, but the pix was taken well, quite 'sui' heex. After tt was the speech by the principal, followed by prize giving session. Tt's all folks, stay tune... But i may update often coz of mugging..
13/3/07 10.38pm
I was supposed to be gg out today. But somehow, i didnt. So i went to thomson plaza wif my mum frm late morning to afternn, then tryta read 'time' magazine and jot down some chim words. 15 past 3, i went for wushu at my sec sch. Had fun playing few games tgt wif juniors then helped to teach new intakes 'gong li quan'. There's a burning qn in my mind when i read up the chem notes. Why is the 4s orbital less energy than 3d? I forgot oso. Anyone who noes can type the ans at the tagbox.
12/3/07 10.40pm
Boy, u have been thinking of wad to type ever since 10.40pm, it's 11pm now. It has been 20mins, but u still havent decided on wad to update.. Tell u wad, dun think too much, off the com and go slp. Wad will be urs, will be urs.. And try not to anyhow commit urself into wad u are actually not supposed to be doing... U noe wad u are supposed to be focusing on. I mean, dun anyhow find urself unnecessary thgs to do. However, if u really think u wanna try out, go ahead.. Treat it as an experience... Jus accept the result, whth it is gd or bad =)
11/3/07 11.11pm

Thurs i ran 15 rds, ard my sch's track, sum up to be 5.07km in 28mins. Fri canoe was fun. Ytd went out wif ig fren. We went j8. I went to Man Studio to buy a shirt. I wanna tok abt the auntie dn dere is damn kaisu.. U noe if u r browsing the shirts, u wldnt wan any1 to disturb u unless u call out for them rite? Then this auntie kept intro-ing shirts to me, then i was feeling quite disgusted liao. When i was in the fitting rm, the another person suddenly passed me another shirt.. Wabiang eh, why u all so kiasu? Hello?!! All ur shirts are nice la, u all dun hav to be afraid tt u cant get them sold rite?! Then i was like pissed off when i was abt to pay for a shirt.. The auntie went to call for another shirt's delivery! Wad the bloody hell, u dun hav to kiasu until such an extent lor! Im felt afraid to reject her coz she might turn face, but i still gotta do wad is rite... Last time when i visit the shop she was oso like this, damn... The shirts are nice, i will visit again, but next time i will tell her off... After tt, pool time at Paradigm.

Wa, damn sian-ed... Today canoe land training can die. 1st, we alr had fitness test... 2.4 run was supposed to be carried out tmr morning but i pon-ing coz i seriously cant wake up any earlier... I explained to the captain, he said ok but i dunno if i can take the test anytime again.. So, we were left with push-ups, pull-ups and sit-ups. Damn, i didnt do well fot the test. Pumpings must be done within 1min! Wakao, i only did 63. As for sit-ups, 1min i only did 53, so little. As for pull-ups, own time own target. I good enough to do perfect 7 wide pull-ups. We did the hill run up down 5 times in less than 8 mins. I think after tt is PT. 3 sets of pumps, crunch, ??lanch?? (how to spell?) then jumping jacks.. Then we played frisbee. Wakao, i didnt even touch it lor... I thght everythg was over, but the worst had yet to come... "Push & Pull".. Wad the hell... Everyone held in pumping position.. Guys 1 by 1 go do pull ups, then whole grp gotta do no of push ups = no of pull ups done... Damn sian, especially u have more than 15 guys in ur grp.. I cldnt even take the heat... Jus imagine... U gotta wait, gotta hold in tt damn position, then do up to 150+ pumpings, coz the grp has ard 17 boys... Yawn, im tired, gg to slp...

Wa, today's pumping sum up to be 300 exactly... But i think i did 280- only. Crunches, dips, jumping jacks and some runnings... My life will be gone soon coz tmr is mass PE... Wad the hell, 2 days to my maths test... i better go study now.
23/1/07 10.20pm
Jc life is like no life... The work load is like a mountain... Then the thgs to learn are of higher lvls... Today i went for pool at Lucky Plaza. The cue stick is very good. One professional pool player can only use his 100% skill and luck when using a gd cue stick. That place so dark, hate the 'darkness'..
21/1/07 10.50pm
Ytd went out wif Hz for pool. Long time nv play pool wif him le, and i saw beattyians at the tpy pool. After which we went marina sq to stroll. Then the guy grumbling tt he's tired. Haha in the end we didnt stroll much.
Today i went out for pool again. Hai, looks like the only thg i noe is pool. Studies are getting more lousy than ever... I seriously thinking of how to survive even in the 1st 3 mths... Ok, i hope i wont let pool get over me... I must really revise my work this coming wkends. I hope i wont be too late... Too late to revise anythg at such a time... As for hw, i either dunno or nv complete all.. Im hoping the teacher wont go thru tmr...
19/1/07 8.00pm
As u guys noe, im in canoe, and the training is like hell... I heard frm the teacher ic tt it's the most exp cca in my sch. As in my principal focus a lot in this cca. I heard it costs abt $30 000 per yr, while other ccas' budget is only $100..
Now im gonna tok abt the intense training. Since i hav mentioned abt land training, i shall tok abt water training now. But there will still be running. Venue for every fri is mac reservoir. Run 5.2km, then 1 set of PT is 30 pumpings, 60 crunches, 20 squats and 10 pull ups... It's alr 3 consecutive days tt i had run and train... Today's accumulation of push ups and pull ups are 160 and 16+ respectively. Wahaha, now im damn fit.. Jogging amt to kilometresssssss this wk... Ok, then we got the chance to canoe!!!!!!!! It damn damn fun i can assure. Wa, u better dun think it's easy to balance urself in the boat hor! U go try out urself.. A lot of j1s got capsized.. And one person can capsize 3+ times. I didnt capsize luckily. The j2s when they jus joined the cca, some even capsized 5 times! And those are even the beginners' boats! I shall intro the boats now... For beginners, they use T1 and T2 (Tour boats). Btw, 1 means single seat, 2 means double seats. Then advanced canoists use the K1 and K2 boats. K1 is damn difficult to balance, u jus imagine the sharp edge of a knife in contact wif water, which means tt the surface area is damn low, damn easy to capsize. Even the seniors cant balance on K1. Then there is this type of boat call C1, C2 etc. The paddle is only one side, jus like the dragon boat de, they gotta kneel one knee and paddle. Canoe is damn fun, but the training is damn hiong! But i shall persevere!
18/1/07 10.20pm
My fingers are too tired to type, now u noe y... Mass PE run 10 rds, then 5 bloody sets of PT. Ok bye... I cant take it, coz it has been 2 consecutive days...
17/1/07 10.05pm
I had my canoe trial today.. Today we did warm up, then pump 50. Late comers 50 more, and we hav to wait for them to finish the 50, which means tt we hav to stay in pumping position... Seriously my arms dun hav the strength. I went jogging, frm cj, to ACS Barker then SCGS.. One damn big rd back to sch. Plus we gotta sprint when we reaching sch.. We finished in ard 15+min. The captain said it was an achievement. Btw, he is quite a nice & encouraging person. I didnt stop during the jog so i felt proud of myself with the fact tt i have not been running for damn long. After the water break then proceeded to 2nd activity. 3 sets of bumping, crunch? and jumping jacks. After every set we must run up grandstand and dn then dash back and stay in push up position while waiting for others. Walaw, by calculation, we gotta do tt 9 times. The rain allowed us to take a short break. Since it rained, the steps at the grandstand were slippery. We did the alt set of the pt call the circuit, which is to do stuff on & near track. Jog on widths of track and sprint on long paths. We pumped then jog then crunch? then sprint then tich? (i dunno the name, it's like ur hands r on the bench then u pump up and down, body facing the front). I guess u noe wad i mean by tt. Then jog then jumping jacks then sprint to finish pt then do another set of these again. Btw, whenever we run to the next pt, we must hold in pumping position until all arrive..
Tt's all for 2nd activity. I didnt do last act bcoz leg cramp. Long time nv excercise then suddenly wan me to do intense training i will die... So i went home for a rest..
16/1/07 11.10pm
Today sch ended at 2pm. So i met up wif my ig to play bball, frisbee and volleyball b4 gg cine for pool. Wa, today i was off form, except for the 1st rd. I KO a lot of balls consecutively when playing wif wai cheung. However i shot in the black ball in the wrong hole. Then in the subsequent games, i didnt really play well. We all went for dnr, then i left after tt bcoz i gotta get my new specs at hougang. I had to rush my maths hw when i got home. Sm other subs not done yet. Hai...

As in no one can imagine tt the ball will go in when miss cue. Haha, i dunno how to describe but thgs jus occurred like tt. Then joseph, my classmate since sec3, got reprimanded by brother paul, my sch principal today. He looked at the time-table and saw tt there wld be a chinese lesson, then e shouted,"Shit!!".

5/1/07 8.12pm
Today is the last day tt i can be wif ig 35. I feel so sad.. I feel tt they are better than my sec4 frens.. So sad, coz a lot chose diff sub combi, so will go diff class. In another words, mon is a new grp of pp. No matter who they are, IG 35, u rox! MUST keep in touch! Today i didnt join in some of the games. Morning was sch tour, went ard the sch, then had a break b4 playing basketball. Then we when to the hall to assemble. We den made our way to Police Academy for some dirty games. 1st, we played blindfolding game, which we have to guide the blinfolded frns to look for the shoes. Then we played obstacle course wif ig 19. We must protect our ppr frm opponents' water bombs. Then came the digusting part.. Mud pool... But i didnt wanna play, so i stepped aside. Haha, forming letters by lying on the mud pool, yucks.. Then wasnt in the mod for the nt game.. I heard frm my beatty classmate tt it was named, "DOTA: The Protection Of The Ass" smthg like tt haha, so farny.. Then we went to the swimming pool for water polo-like game, but i didnt join, duno y.. Hai.., wasted. We then return to Cjc hall for CCA briefing. I soon found out tt badminton only take in sch team ppl. Wad the hell, my sec sch only allow gals for badminton.. Wad shit... In the end, i join ODAC. Not the same as my sec sch.. ODAC is all fit ppl de. Im gonna train to be more muscular hehe... I think tt's all, we assembled in the hall at ard 5 for a chat then sch dismissed after settling some admin stuff and announcements. We met up in the canteen for a sad farewell party. The facilitators Steve and Amelia treated us choco and mushmellow. We yam seng then wrote abt how we felt abt orientation.. Sobbing, Steve mentioned abt an outing after 1st 3 mths.. He said he will say wad we wrote on the ppr. He will keep them in 2 wine bottles. Smart, i admire him! (Hitting chest like him now). Alright, tt's all for today. I love u guys..
4/1/07 6.08pm
Todae, i went Cj wif an upset stomach.. Hai, today 4 ppl frm my grp had stomach pain. 1st thg we did was mass dance, then played dogs and bone. We went ard the sch for treasure hunting, in order to noe the places better. After tt, we went com lab to register for subs. We then went to canteen or break. Chit chat le then go hall again. After tt we went to play a digusting game. 2 frens had to tie their hands tgt then go to a pail, grab 5 beans, ans a qn correctly, then go back. But i ansed wrongly. The pail was mixed wif soil, beans, spagetti, oil, bread.. Walaw.. Wasted.. We chased after the facilitator with our dirty hands. After washing them, we played a tunnel game. Gotta, pass thru hula hoop, but it broke. We were asked to start all over again haha. Then we went to play picking sweet frm pan of flour game. Haha, then followed by spongy ball game. Gotta bring the ball to the other side then squeeze all the water into a pail. We use the parts of our body tt were indicated frm the chips tt were picked by the facilitator. Then, we played a hula hoop game, like we can only use all our fingers to move the hula hoop. Hai, due to some error, we started all over again. Then we gotta pass under the net (game played at volleyball court), then dunno how to describe wad we did, like gotta move the hula hoop dn then up a facilitator, wifout touching her. Did i miss out any game? Then we went to the hall le, heard some lame jokes, learnt some cheers, then college song. I got the pe shirt and orientation shirt today. After tt go home le, duno wad will happen tmr.. Smthg to do wif mud...Shit..
3/1/07 10.00pm
Wa.., it's a total new environment! Wa, so long nv take bus to sch le.. Sian, i gotta wake up earlier. Today i went there early, and join frens frm beatty. We assembled in the hall and watched a short performance by the facilitators. Then, our grp (35) was brought to a wulu corner of the sch for icebreaker. We gotta intro ourselves then play a name exchanging game, so tt we can noe one another better. We played a blanket game, which is one had to say out the person at the other side of the blanket as fast as possible. All the games have forfeit. Then we played wacko, followed by a short break. We played tt polar game bear during the break, at the canteen. It's smthg like murderer. Then we went for a talk on choosing subs. I amost slept.. Then we went to a small hall to play a lame game like stepping on the pprs to get to the other side of the room. Btw, some facilitators are sick.., i dun wanna say how sick they r. Then we went to smwhere near the fitness corner to play catching, like the catchers will hold hands tgt and becomes a grp of ppl. Then we went to another area to play tt 'trees, squirrel & hunter' game. The games were a little childish, but it bonded the ppl more. Then it's the mass dance. Wow, i get to hold hands with a gal. Haha, i was sorta nervous... Then we had a break again, b4 debrief. After the ordering of shirts, we were dismissed. Haha, i went to play pool again after tt.. Hee
2/1/07 11.32pm
AHHHHHHH!!!! I really really, seriously cant believe tt sch reopens tmr!! And it's a total new environment for me!! Luckily, i spent these 2 days to the fullest. Ytd, i went out wif 2 frens. We went for pool and had dnr at LJS. When we were abt to take the train, Hz realised tt he forgot to take back his EZ-link card after playing pool. We bid farewell to Yingzhen then after tt rushed to get it back. The amazing thing is tt the same thg happened to me b4. Then coincidentally, we saw his bro there haha. After tt, we made our way to Heeren. Along the way, we called many ppl to ask them out for iceskating the next day. Initially, we wanted to make it 4 ppl, so tt there's a package. But we managed to find more ppl, so total became 7. Yeah, bought a shirt, but so exp..
So today, we met up at tpy int. When we got there, we hesitated many times whth we shld really skate, coz short of 1 person. But then we were alr at Jurong East. Finally, after much considerations, we decided to play pool. Halfway thru, Shunli left 1st, followed by Alicia and Zhihan. Wa, left 4.. Then we hesitated again whth to ice-skate, coz Yingzhen gotta go home. In the end we went back up again, but still acted like sissy ppl, so still didnt play in the end. Hai.. We didnt mean to make anyone unhappy, coz initially the gathering was made for ice-skating.. Hai... So we went for KFC. Then after Yz left, Wee Han, Hz and me decided to go bowling at YCK, but we were amazed tt there's no longer a bowling alley there!! We thght of gg Marina Bay to bowl, but finally went back to tpy to play pool again. Ha..ha...... Pool addicts.. End up 3 silly ppl playing pool, and odering noodles to eat (nice leh). I vent my anger on the balls man.. Wack ar! Then mumbling, "Cjc..Cjc.., Wack u ar!.." Smashed in a lot of balls, but still not siok.. Wa, really cant believe my holidays have ended siah!... Today was a fun day.. Hai, my frens who arent gg 1st 3 mths are so lucky... Gotta wake up early tmr, post another entry next time..

End of sem 2, but still have a lot of things to do. Overall, this sem was good, as i enjoyed all the foundation modules. Too bad, i made a couple of careless mistakes, dunno if i can secure a good SAP. Alright, i will just aim for 4.4 this sem.
Now i have to focus on Oweek, my main event. Hmm, train up on my fitness. I realised that as the year goes by, the distance i clock per year is getting lesser and lesser... From 300km in 2010, to 250km in 2011, what about 2012? Haiz... wanna save money, cant join too many running event.
Maybe retake my Ippt again? My window havent close... Just wanna fight for Gold. Wanna do whatever i can this holiday, stay happy and recharge for a new work year ahead.
Plan for SEP. Think of modules to take next year.. Wanna watch movies, videos, funny shows, especially catch more of running man. Really wanna try something new. Like go join the escape at scape thingy which my CAC councillor recommended. Sounds fun! =)
