bloggers n Blasphemy

heard about the WSM case recently? (for more info go to chorsengs blogg)

shows that blogging can lead to unwanted troubles indeed. and somehow being objective can also lead to even more troubles.

while mr derek wee has prolly gotten the last laugh with everyone lamblasting wsm, all he has done is ruin her life for the next 1 month. after that, when the roots have healed and the tide has fallen, everything will be the same it as it was again. nice and happy. yes indeedy.

ok i better stop in case some pple from straits times forums or wherever else comes along and decides to report me.

although i dont know her personally (izit bad if u know someone as 'the humans person'), i just feel very sad for her. like how just 1 lengthy diatribe to the government can get blown out of proportions. make a mountain out of a molehill indeed.

just had to get that off my chest. like that damn bench press of 65kg which im unable to do D:. now im getting so fattings (and so are all the other ruggers going to seed).

cant wait for the damn a levels to end, so i can finally fulfull my personal obligations. like learning to bake. and other stuff.

sorry yockteng no time to do your what-you-want-in-your-soul-mate thingy. other time i hope.

blurriness haziness and mooncakes

"everything's so blurry, and everyone's so fake"

singapore is not like singapore today (unless you count the years when we were pri3, 5 etcetc)

cos the haze is back!!!

in fact its so hazy that it reminded me of new zealand or london. except that the weather here is much warmer and there are not as many ang mohs. (psi now is 100 at the time when im writing this.)

spent the entire day in air-con in my room. and parents absolutely barred me from going to east coast park for joggings. (not that im complaining :P)

and whose most directly responsible? okok im not gonna point any fingers here in case someone gets wise and report me, but from my extensive investigations and research so far,
1) the country starts with 'I' and ends with 'sia'.
2) the country lies to our south
3) it was a victim of a Tsunami attack on 26th dec 2004.

damn the shifting cultivators there. as dr chinoh would have said long ago.

anyway it was mooncake festival yesterday. and for the past few days i have been stuffing myself with mooncakes. literally. (1000 calories or kilojoules a mooncake?)

hmm but why are they called mooncakes anyway? and i can vaguely recall a story behind them.

thinkings.

lemme see. got some versions i think

ok at that time the chinese were trying to drive out the mongols. pre-ming dynasty i think. the chinese rebel leaders spread instructions to their troops by placing handwritten notes inside mooncakes, so that their orders can be passed right under the mongols Noses. (the generals being very pro cooks)
the soldiers, having been given the nutritious mooncakes, cut them open and retrieved the instructions. and of cos they ate the mooncakes so they can become fit and strong and destroy all enemies.
anyway the chinese won (yay!). thus the method must have been quite effective.
but if the soldiers, in their haste, ate the note by accident, then too bad i guess. paper doesnt really go with mooncake anyway. or maybe the notes were made from eggs tts why there are eggs in mooncakes now.
viva la chinese :D

in another version, prolly some lovers tale about how this guy and girl really loved each other but were barred from marrying (due to some chinese olden day thing). so the guy, being a proefficient cook, baked mooncakes and slipped inside some mushy love note professing his undying and endless love for all eternity for her. (come to think of it, if the note was in the mooncake it will be really mushy. and icky. eww)
the girl, being a sweettooth, would then cut open the mooncake and take out the note. she then reads the mushy love letter or eats the mooncake. whichever is more important. see everyones happy :D
then they prolly had some plan to elope to hawaii and thus the hawaiians were born.
let there be love. ><

theres some other version also right? about this guy who shot down some suns with his bow. then he got some immortality pills. and he went to heaven. something like that. then his wife joined him. by appolo 13?

ok i seriously need to learn how to bake. in case singapore gets invaded by some hostile north neightbour. like duh.

top 3 movies

hello

quite long ago i mentioned that ill do a top 10 movie list that everyone should have at least watched at least once or have on the computer (sounds familiar??)

but somehow that slipped my mind until today! when i visited chorseng's blog and realised harry potter and order of phoenix pictures are out. (hermione still ownssss all btw :P)

top 3 movies only. because movie reviews take much longer than music reviews to write. and when it comes to movies im more selective. :) and not that there are many really good movies today anyway.

and in no particular order again....

1) V for Vendetta (Wee for Wendetta for senthils case :D)

Political thrillers = nice show for pple like me who like extremely complicated political theory (okok it was not very cheem but i like to believe that so), words that start with "V" (for the
GUYS who have very limited V-vocabulary), + the action! and 1812 overture when the dunno wad building exploded. but it differs from the comic from quite a lot. ok actually really a lot. those interested to read the comic its in the library.

"I'm asking you again, who stole my lipstick??"

2) Armageddon

The best best best best movie ever created in humankind.
basically a giant stone hurls at a gazillion miles per hour and would kill anyone if no preventive action was taken. and being the wise and clever humans that we are, our ultimate plan is to detonate a nuclear warhead on the meteor!!
and of cos the idea was conceived by the americans.
everything about the show was perfect. action sequences, sounds, even the cheesy romance between AJ and the liv tyler character. very touching movie also.. like cmon who did not cry when bruce willis stayed on the meteor to ensure the nuclear device will blow up? even the manliest man cried i bet.
Cmon lor he had to say bye to his daughter from a giant rock in space!!!!
omg!!! thats so touching!!! and everyone in the spaceship, kennedy space centre were all crying. thus everyone in the cinema were also crying.
1 question thou: if space is a vacuum, then how do we hear all the explosions?

"whatya mean no one brought the chicken wings??"

3) Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

Admittedly, while the 2nd installment of the pirates series had more action, fight sequences, special effects etc, the 1st movie was still the better one in my opinion. and of cos, there's always keira knightley. (btw in the 2nd movie keira looked like craaaap.)
having johnny depp as a gay pirate and orlando bloom as a humble blacksmith also serves to spice up the hunkiness factor by a bit (really really by a bit). and also to attract the hordes of crazy girls.
storyline? something out of warcraft. jack and will turner have to stop a bunch of undead pirates, save the girl, kill the baddies etc. and of cos since orlando is in it, the good guys win.

"hey that's where i parked my car!!"

can anyone name better movies then these?? notice all the above movies have lots of action, a usually baseless plot, stupidly insane heroism and the hot damsel in distress. face it we are all guys here..

tuesday ecp outing

monday was spent resting and recuperating from the night biking trip.

by tuesday i was restored!!! thou i had to be woken up by jonny calling my phone desperately at about 10. (we were supposed to meet at 10) and me being very efficient and staying very close to ecp, got there in 15 mins.

spent most of my time learning how to skate. how sad right?? like i stay in the east all my life and i havent even skated before. but after today, after undergoing the school of hard knocks, i think my skating has improved dramatically. (at least i hope)

learning to skate is harddd. at least there was yiling and sherlene who dint know how to skate also. and yockteng was as good as dunno. and i tot learning to bike was bad. (photos courtesy of evelyn who couldnt resist taking pictures of me just dying while learning to skate ><)

note the giant beginners corner sign.

when im not falling down

my extremely horrible morning hair :(. nvm heres the act cool pic.

when i felt i was good enough, i decided to join the others on the road. everything was relatively smooth, except that there was this time when stupid jon suddenly fell, then evelyn fell, then i fell. hahazz it was really funny actually. :D at least no one got hurt except for the cuts and bruises that added on the those i got on sunday/monday.

point: i realised i fell almost as many times skating as i did cycling.

after that we returned the skates and went for lunch. rest of the time was spent stoning on the giant stone while some pple went to bowl. somehow not doing anything but just lazing around is soooo relaxing

after the others went home, marcus and yockteng came over for a while to my house where we watched roadtrip and had the most interesting chat about everything under the sun. hmm somehow i like those profound talks where u go around and around in circles but you don't have a clear conclusion in the end.

last few days of relaxation before we hit the books again :(

post-prelims

to push down that post that implied that i was really angsty (at least which some pple told me)

heres a quick update.

the past few days have been a crazy whirlwind :D. going out and out and out and spending so little damn time at home. time at home has been fruitfully spent on the phone or more importantly, dotaing (kding!!).

saturday

met the class which consisted of like 5 pple at cine. basically we spent 1 hr discussing where to go to for dinner, then we had the brilliant brainwave of going to esplanade to eat at some food centre there.

char kway tiao was really really really good :D cept that marcus got confused with the mai hum and my hump thinggy but all still turned out ok. yums

learning point: try the stingray. for $12 its really worth. except that it disappeared so fast when all the guys banzaied it almost instantly.

sunday (crazy day)

went new creation with justinevelyn in afternoon, then biking with ruggers in evening!!! being the punctual ruggers that we all are, we only met at the ecp macs at about 7+?? when the msg said to meet at 6. bike bike bike all the way to lagoon to eat dinner (for the others) then we biked back to meet some latecomers at the same bike shop.

and of course, being the sporty and fit singaporeans that we are, we biked everywhere!!!

1st stop: Dons house
fun begins. dons house where we waited for just and joel to arrive after singapore idol. meanwhile we watched eurotrip (for some pple like the 10000th time) priceless as usual. never ever gets old. club vandersexxxxxxxxx XD

2nd stop: kallang road
fun really begins :D biked to indoor stadium (just says hey i was just here 2 hrs ago!!) then off we went again and again

3rd: esplanade
fun continues. biked to esplanade (i say hey i was here yesterday) via nicoll highway!! where the first major accident occurred. roland drops his cap and brakes to pick it up. ilman is shocked and does series of acrobatics on his bike that he usually would not do. SPLAT!!. and ilman has a few new gashes on his knee. which were expertly patched up due to the efforts of joel and his super tape. en route of course we stopped to pose for pictures on steves camera (phone)

4th: shenton way
fun continues continues. from esplanade, by some sheer chance and luck, we suddenly found ourselves in front of tanjong pagar mrt. so what do 15 hot, handsome and sweaty guys do? pose for more pics of cos. then was bike bike bike again, chionging across roads, pavements, bits of grass, anything in our way, beating the red lights, and 10000 ways to shorten our lifespan.

5th: lau par sat (is this how u spell it??)
fun takes a break. finally our destination --- lau par sat. to rest our aching loins and groins and whatever else that took a severe beating/bruising/rubbing. deserts and more deserts came. then came the rather interesting debate between steven and glen about the post-prom party. nvm bout that btw. after that we were on our way again. to the shopping mecca of singapore -- orchard road!!

6th: boat quay/ann siang hill
fun starts again. before going to orchard we went to boat quay first. (where we were after we lost the finals) from boat quay we hit ann siang hill, where we cycled up the fricking hill due to some navigational error. (supposed to turn right we went up instead)

7th: river valley road
fun is running out. river valley road is seriously one of the worst roads for cycling. it goes uphill and uphill and even more uphill. nvm the quads got a workout.

8th: orchard road
fun decreases a bit. i tried to be wise and jump the curb between the road and the pavement outside wheelock place. accident no 2 occurs. 1st time i got cuts in a very very long time, which were patched up by myself and joels tape. cycled to outside taka where we took photos again.

9th: homeward bound
fun decrease a lot. sore bums and thighs were really taking a toll on us. so we just biked as quickly as we could back to dons house by the bus 14 route. somehow we gained a lot of ground in record time. maybe it was the fact that it was almost 4am><.

10th: finish line!!!
dons house finally. and how far did we cycle? well if someone does the math and calculates how many km we do, we'll be thankful. (estimate-- 20km?? cos we were cycling in circles most of the time)

biking be fun! even thou i fell like countless times, cycled into pillars and lamp-posts, almost decapitated random passer-bys and so on.

funny moment on the way back
ryan: fck i almost collided into the pillar!!! guys careful
arjun: guys look out for pillar!!
mark: guys look out for pillar!!

I collided into the pillar.

and of cos we broke almost every traffic law except for the one involving drunk driving. that one we definitely did NOT break.

at the end of the expedition the bikes were in terrible condition. (at least mine was) got spokes that were torn out, bike stands that fell off, brakes that did not work etcetc. the bike shop owner must be really understanding. like we returned with 13 chunks of mutilated metal and he still beamed and us and said thankyou.

bike again soon :D more on ecp outing later

Prelims be over!!!

the prelims are finally over

(it sucks to end on friday. when some buggers like joel lum finished on monday)

like zomg when was it going to end..

after the disastrously disastrous physics paper 2 (for me at least), i was already running out of steam. talk about no stamina

2 weeks of intensive exams can really wreck up your life.. headaches galore after almost every paper arghz.

dotaing everyday during prelims at night sure helped thou (for the headache but not the A)

but now that i think of it, this holiday after the prelim is not really a holiday after all. more like a brief intermission.

think of the tentative period of peace between ww1 and ww2. yea now ww1 has just ended and we are all in the process of post-war reparations (this includes comp games, movies, prancing around in j8 aimlessly, and other stuff that will probably not really help for the coming battle.

hmm

and now that prelims are over, onto more important tasks.

1) tidying up my room (this almost done liao :D)
2) studying sats
3) start writing my scholarship essays
4) whatever comes into my mind.
5) ______________

task 15 from previous post will probably never materialise. /stone.

and during prelim period, some things happened to the j1 batch. rather disturbing. nvm about that its rather depressing and we should be all happy and carefree that we have only 1.5 months more to A lvs.

watching miami vice after a gruelling physics s paper is also no joke, especially since the plot is so damn complicated that you can almost say that there is a non-existent plot. and some parts were like soap-operaish and slow. not good when u are almost about to nod off.

should have watched devil wears pravda instead. at least there will be a few laughs

watch this movie only when your head is clear. or if u just wanna watch sex/violencebloodgore/guns/drugs/. In that case you should just stay home and download limewire or ares.

moral: watch a funny movie. or organise a class outing to eastcoast/sentosa (that one pending)

Being forward looking

instead of poring over my chem or math notes carefully to find out what i missed out for prelims

i have been compiling a list on what to do AFTER a levels ends to NS. (which is about a grand total of 1 month? if i get the early enlistment. which i HOPE i do)

that is bad indeed. i shud go mug and live up to my image ><. but frankly theres not much point studying now. except to maybe refresh your memory on formulas?

THINGS TO DO (in no particular order)

1) Clean up my room, tidy and catalouge up everything in there.
2) learn to play the guitar. at least strum a few notes and sing extremely off-key.
3) learn to bake -muffins, cakes, cookies, creme brulee (whatever the hell that is) yea i got the inspiration from the guy in high school musical
4) learn the capital of every country on earth. (half-way there)
5) learn to skate (with yockteng)
6) buy stocks and shares (if the parents allow)
7) world of warcraft (duuuh)
8) get my 2.4 timing to below 9.5mins
9) bench-press >70kg
10) >20 pullups
11) learn astronomy
12) learn basic mechanical skills so i can be the man of the house. how to repair comps, TVs, make bombs, knife-fighting etc.
13) other relevant survival skills like first aid or firefighting
14) make a map of the entire east coast (meant to do this after o lvs)
15) and my other important task.

for 15, i think the ruggers shud know. and the class. and many many other assorted pple ><.

be cool at 9pm later on hbo. or star movies.

gd luck for the prelims ahead!!!! it will be all over soon ^^.

be cool :D

RIP Steve Irwin (1966? -- 2006)

waa this news is quite sad. (strike for crocs everywhere ==@^,^^,^~~)

steve irwin's head just got pawned by stingray for 1000000 extra gold.

but on the other hand, this goes to show that we should't frolic around with animals that are about 3 times our height or weight. and has a sting that is about the length of our forearm. not to mention that the sting can knock out a great white shark in seconds. kudos to what it can do to a human. (thou the human is a weirdo)

but however

much as everyone believes it to be an accident, i believe in a higher order.

after all, which well-known TV or media persona dint get murdered or met an untimely death??

1) John Fitzgerald Kennedy. assasinated in Dallas, Texas on 22nd November 1963. Killed by multiple bullet shots through the head, throat and chest.
And so far it has been proven by the highly investigative conspiracy theorists on the internet that the CIA are the ones responsible. and the FBI, the mafia, the yakuza, the hanava hombres, lyndon johnson, fidel castro, marilyn monroe, gandhi, saddam hussein, etcetcetc

2) Martin Luther King. assasinated in Memphis, Tennessee on 4th April 1968. Killed by a single shot in the throat.
and with the netizens brilliant detective and deductive skills honed by watching endless reruns of CSI and batman comics, we have narrowed down the suspects to a select few. Lyndon johnson, the FBI, the CIA, the mafia, the yakuza, malcolm x, muhammad ali, muhammad ilman, malcolm in the middle, britney spears, oh jeez the list is endless.

anyway back to the topic. Steve Irwin (god bless his soul)

as with our dearly departed 2 friends above whose contribution to us is to supply us quotes that we pore over endlessly,

there IS a conspiracy to get him killed!!!!

ahhh!!!

1) the stingray is actually NOT a stingray. it is actually a highly complex machinery that is operated by 2 men (for references go to wikipedia to read up on captain's nemos nautili). 1 person drives the "stingray/machine" hybrid by flapping the fins and eating lots of beans. the other one is the hit-man. he controls the sting, which in fact, is not a sting!!! but rather a harpoon tipped with a deadly metabolic poison or microorganisms (such as cyanide or EDTA or Clostridium Botulinum or Sacchomyces Cerevisae)

2) and when Stevie swims up near the stingray, (due to the fact that the stingray is nearly immobile due to the limiting factor of the driver having a threshold on how many beans he can eat)

3) BAM!! perfect shot into the heart. through the pericardium. bullzeyez. and of course after that the stingray has to flap away rapidly to escape suspicion (they do this be Bernoulli's effect. by designing the fin of the stingray to provide maximum lift, the stingray simply flies away). So to all detectives, dont search the sea, search the skies instead.

then comes the fundamental question...

HUDUNNIT? (who done(did) it for u suakus)

many many suspects as usual. as in obviously, being a popular media personality, he had made a lot of enemies.

Firstly. the australians.
steve irwin, admittedly, overdos the aussie accent a bit too much. after all, which of us doesnt sterotype aussies now as pple who wear khaki and say crikey, mate, awwww look at the size of thatt etcetc.
Cmon, aussies have a MUCH more colourful vocab that starts with mainly F or M. esp during rugby games.
so maybe john howard chartered the australian secret service (ASS) to kill that pain in the ass and finally address his flagging popularity.

New Zealanders!! (or new zealandees?)
New Zealand is always Australia's kid brother (cept in rugby). Maybe producers of a New Zealand based TV series wanted to make a new show: Steveaniru Iriniwina and the Kiwi Hunter. But to ensure they have the top spot in all oceania, they have to do away with the main competition. Steve Irwin and the Crocidile Hunter!!. aka bubye steve irwin u gotta go.

Greenpeace
you know those pple. fed up with stevies bullying and taunting of the poor innocent crocs, they finally decided to get even. and what better way to do it through a stingray?? after all the most we ever saw of it was on a ri canteen table. and when his guard is down........ poke.

and of course there are many more suspects, such as viacom, wally gator, the secret crocodile kingdom near jaafer's house, etcetc.

whatever it is, Steve Irwin, you will be missed.

holidays

yay its the holidays again (albeit a bit too quickly)

seems like only yesterday that
common tests 2 were over,
school was starting again,
we won saints in kiwi cup,
we lost to them in police cup finals, (it burns till today)
trainings and trainings and gymmings
promos
trainings and trainings and gymmings
class outings
1S03Q
og outings
o levels
etc etc

before u know it, the best 2 years of your life (for some worst) may be over. depends on how u perceived and enjoyed your jc life.

sighs. time flies.

btw have u ever imagined how different you would be if you could turn back time and change 1 thing in your life?

-like assuming u went to ac instead of ri, how different would you be today? would u become a stereotypical ac poser or a ri mugger? (im NOT stereotypical ri btw)
-if u joined choir instead of rugby, would it really matter that much?
-if u chose to be introverted instead of being a maniac, what would you be now?

thinking about all that made me realise that i rather not tamper with time :D.

our life is now changing so fast that we tend to forget what has happened to us. maybe one day ill write an autobiography on this blog. like what jeff is doing.

for others i know, however, dont brood so much on what has been and instead focus on what will be. (not gonna mention names here)

onto other more important stuff

studying the past few days in school has been rather productive esp in the library with the subzero temperatures. and all the other interesting sights and sounds. (not to mention fun too when u are with a bunch of loony buddies)

and if the library is too crowded, or you need a change in environment, you can go to the humans classroom (more specifically hanyi's classroom). its so much cooler and more comfortable compared to the other classrooms in block a and b. they have like, like SOFAS in there!! and rugby balls. and soccer balls. and of course the air-con. lucky humans pple ^^

and you can do a lot more things in the humans room than in the library, like sleeeeeeeeeeeep on the squashy sofas, talk crap, throw highlighters and markers around, draw on the whiteboard, talk about Boy's law to wenloong, occupy as much space as possible .... list is endless. just dont sleep without your shoes (stupid mark)

that being said, library still has more advantages in other areas. shuttup joel(lum). ><

hmm. still have almost all of bio to cover. i be dead.

non-exams

i shall be an anomaly and not post about exams. (unlike most other pple out there)

ok.

nothing about exams.

umm.

i guess most JC pple have a really sad life especially during the exam time. when all our other committments are put on hold and we just mugmugmug.

this year doesnt really count i guess. studying for exams and preparing personal statements/essays/college applications is really no joke if u are short of time.

and the fact that everyone around u is studying has a therupatic effect on you. (well except in the library where somehow i will be overwhelmed by the uncontrollable urge to sleep. or talk crap loudly.)

cmon lor even the brazilian midfielder is studying. (really crummy inside joke sorry.)
one thing's for certain though. if he screws up like last year promos again he will blame everyone around him again. like when he accused E of making him sooooo depressed such that he failed everything. (mentioned on his blog which he shutdown).

oh yea nothing about exams sorry. heh

a rather eventful day, especially on 7th floor studying :D. (ask ilman or mark) makes me wanna shout out take my breath away in my tone-deaf voice

relief to all 3q pple-- the stupid emotions song is no longer stuck in my head :D

omg there is really nothing to write about other than exams!!! no wonder wenloong gave up blogging.

Suits or Uniforms

its been a while since i blogged (ok i remember typing this quite long ago)

and many things have happened since then again.

but nvm about that. pple shud know only when the whole thing blows over. whatever im supposed to be non-aligned anyway. but how do u remain neutral if your sense of justice is compromised?

marcus and esp joel i still cant accept how u are all still oblivious to everything. joel how can u remain so unemotional when he has stabbed u in the back repeatedly? with the same blade each time. marcus i just hope u know what u are doing. and the fact that she is getting even more emotionally unstable doesnt really help. miss lim or mr tan if u read this can u pls help her or smth??

need an outlet. just keep remembering the times when a good rugby training can leave u so physically drained such that all your anger and hatred is disspated. and the teammates who will always stand by u.

anyway

had a rather interesting day. what started out as a simple question to girls during gp metamorphasized into a very fun game (for me and lizhan :D)

question: if money was not an issue, would u rather date a guy in uniform or a guy in a suit?

some of the reactions were just classic.
-- "but cant the guy in a suit change into a uniform? then who will be hotter??"
-- "OF COURSE UNIFORM LAH!!!"
-- "SUIT DUHH!!! er or uniform? lizhan is in the suit izit?? ewwwwww"

funny in a really disturbing way. (more girls picked suit btw. fine lizhan u win)

hmm i keep blogging about really light-hearted stuff (like wangs and such). yup this provides the illusion that everything is perfect.

and this on top of oh-so-trivial stuff like our prelims and a levels, our uni admissions, our ps, homework ........................

(need help for the PS and ESPECIALLY GP i do. miss lim HELP!!!)

wands

harry potter for more mature pple. dont read if u are under 18.

Purely in the interests of science, I have replaced the word "wand" with "wang" in Harry Potter

Let's see the results...

"Why aren't you supposed to do magic?" asked Harry.
"Oh, well -- I was at Hogwarts meself but I -- er -- got expelled, ter tell yeh the truth. In me third year. They snapped me wang in half an' everything. (oww)

A magic wang... this was what Harry had been really looking forward to.

"Yes, yes. I thought I'd be seeing you soon. Harry Potter." It wasn't a question. "You have your mother's eyes. It seems only yesterday she was in here herself, buying her first wang. Ten and a quarter inches long, swishy, made of willow. Nice wang for charm work."
"Your father, on the other hand, favored a mahogany wang. Eleven inches. " (no shit man)

Harry took the wang. He felt a sudden warmth in his fingers. He raised the wang above his head, brought it swishing down through the dusty air and a stream of red and gold sparks shot from the end like a firework, throwing dancing spots of light on to the walls

"Oh, move over," Hermione snarled. She grabbed Harry's wang, tapped the lock, and whispered, 'Alohomora!"

The troll couldn't feel Harry hanging there, but even a troll will notice if you stick a long bit of wood up its nose, and Harry's wang had still been in his hand when he'd jumped - it had gone straight up one of the troll's nostrils.

He bent down and pulled his wang out of the troll's nose. It was covered in what looked like lumpy gray glue. (i wonder..)

He ran onto the field as you fell, waved his wang, and you sort of slowed down before you hit the ground. Then he whirled his wang at the dementors. Shot silver stuff at them.

"Yes," Harry said, gripping his wang very tightly, and moving into the middle of the deserted classroom. He tried to keep his mind on flying, but something else kept intruding.... Any second now, he might hear his mother again... but he shouldn't think that, or he would hear her again, and he didn't want to... or did he? (ok that was just wrong)

Something silver-white, something enormous, erupted from the end of his wang

Then, with a sigh, he raised his wang and prodded the silvery substance with its tip

'Get - off - me!' Harry gasped. For a few seconds they struggled, Harry pulling at his uncles sausage-like fingers with his left hand, his right maintaining a firm grip on his raised wang.

He was on all fours again on Snape's offlice floor, his scar was prickling unpleasantly, but the voice that had just issused from his mouth was triumphant. He pushed himself again to find Snape staring at him, his wang raised.

Ron pulled out his wang, but Hermione pushed it away, whispering, " don't!'

Snape lay panting on the ground. James and Sirius advanced on him, wangs raised.

for those who dont know that is a wang, just use your imagination. for those who do, harry potter will never be the same again. :D

for u chem geeks

found this off bash.org. just take your time to read it.

so, at this college there was an extra credit question "Is hell endothermic or exothermic"

this is what one kid wrote:

First, we postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.

As for souls entering hell, lets look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell. Since, there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant.

So, if hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose (i.e.,Hell is exothermic).

Of course, if hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, than the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over (i.e.,Hell is endothermic).

So which is it? If we accept the postulate given by Ms.Therese Banyan during my freshman year, "That it will be a cold night in hell before I go out with you," and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having a relationship with her, the second case cannot be true. Therefore, hell is exothermic.

the kid was the only one who got credit

cool aint it? maybe its gonna come out for prelims. maybe i shud go ask mr koh.

Blind

I was young but I wasn't naive
I watched helpless as she turned around to leave
And still I have the pain I have to carry
A past so deep that even you could not bury if you tried

After all this time
I never thought we'd be here
Never thought we'd be here
When my love for you was blind
But I couldn't make you see it
Couldn't make you see it
That I loved you more than you'll ever know
And part of me died when I let you go

I would fall asleep only in hopes of dreaming
That everything would be like it was before
But nights like this it seems are slowly fleeting
They disappear as reality is crashing to the floor

After all this time
I never thought we'd be here
Never thought we'd be here
When my love for you was blind
But I couldn't make you see it
Couldn't make you see it
That I loved you more than you'll ever know
A part of me died when I let you go

After all this time
Would you ever wanna leave it
Maybe you could not believe it
That my love for you was blind
But I couldn't make you see it
Couldn't make you see it
That I loved you more than you will ever know
A part of me died when I let you go
And I loved you more than you'll ever know
A part of me died when I let you go

sopa opera gayness

mood wasnt very good today due to sleep deprivation. argh.. fucked start to a fucked up day. (actually the day wasnt that bad, considering that i was asleep throughout most of it)

having a convo with someone now on msn. opening my eyes to some things that were blind to me for the 1st half of the year. god dammit. now im fired up. really really want to tear something apart now. or someone for that matter.

genius, right? how ones opinion can change so rapidly after just 10 mins of convo. maybe i (and some other guys in class) shud not have acted like a bastard to her for the whole year. maybe i shud have taken evelyns advice instead of following my gut. maybe if i am still there for her thru this times. if it had helped anyway.

remember the times in primary and secondary school?

where all we had to worry about were cca, schoolwork and tts it?

wtf is happening to everyone now

shit man

bloody shit man

someones is gonna pay tomorrow. somethings gonna give.

school starts

school has begun again.

that means no more 4am nights, no more waking up at noon, no more watching johnny bravo at 1.30pm and spongebob at 3.30pm.

sighs.

i told myself that i won't sleep during the 1st official day back at school (cts dont count). (new term, new beginnings)

bio i was awake.
GP also.
maths lecture even.
chem. (how to sleep in that)

then came physics.

oops.

quite amusing/pitiful/sad that the entire back row of guys can fall asleep simultaneously during physics. the fact that the classroom was so nice and breezy dint really help. and the fact that mr lim was going thru the mcq really reeeeeaaallllyyyy slooooooooowly.

whats with sleeping in lessons? as if we dint have enough sleeper cells in term 1 & 2.

this making me sleepy.

world cup weirdness

OMFG!

OMFG!!

OMMFG!!!!

a miracle has just happened for portugal and france.

by now everyone knows that portugal has won england (by penalties no less) and france has defeated brazil yet again (okok admitedly the henry goal was superb)

england should have won portugal easily. and they would have if stupid rooney didnt get sent off. rooney whyyyyyyy. this is so deja vu of the 98 world cup where beckham got sent off. knnbccb. and the pple who were supposed to score their penalties had theirs saved. (gerrard n lampard nooo)

brazil... sighs brazil just got outplayed by a french which is soo failed to impress in the group stages. and brazil with all their superstars couldnt put 1 in. but france seriously deserved to win that.

Germany had better win the world cup now. if not..

and now beckham steps down as english captain. whos next? my bet is that its either neville or gerrard.

Pathetic Physics and Bloody bio

hmm

when i tell pple that i am very very unprepared for the cts (which are true btw)

people go (immediately). "HAHA IM SURE U FU*CKING CLOSET MUGGER WHOLE DAY STAY AT HOME AND MUG STUPID FAG*OT." hurtful man.

ouchie. ok if this is how pple see me then i really dont mind. cos the impression of me mugging hard can inspire pple to work harder. yea i look like a mugger :D. like those typical pple from ri who do nothing but mug all day (wenjie) . ouch.

physics was not as bad as i expected, as in i could actually finish the paper. :D (First time in my 1.5 years of jc life that i finish!!) so i shouldnt do too badly. then i went to the canteen and started comparing mcq answers with nigel and wenjie and whoever else. fucksssssss.

bio: when i flipped over and saw the essay question, KNNBCCBFYMCCBKNNBCCB x 100. self explanatory. and as usual my bio paper is like a warzone again. pity my marker.

and its chem tomorrow. urghhhh

Home affairs program n other random stuff

actually i wanted very much to blog about the home affairs thing, but since everything is supposed to be classified, oh well. :P

only thing i can say that is there is much more to the police than just catching thieves and eating doughnuts. in fact a hell lot more. except for the overly long briefings and the lack of hands on activities, the program was really really good. (food that was catered was really good too. right jx and bing?)

and before i get back to complex numbers

heres a few random pics i found on the web. for those bored enough to think of a caption, add it on the tagboard :D

no points for guessing who this is. george!!

and this of course was the richest guy in the world. reminds u of anyone?

ok that was really boliao. go mug u fools :D

obs/home affairs

hmmz.

i actually had prepared a very long, beautiful post on this but when i pressed publish post, somehow EVERYTHING got freaking deleted. (retarded comps) goddamitimpissedoffman

prolly something to do with the 6/6/06 thing. lawl.

since i was too lazy to retype everything, well obs was fun. many many funny weird memories to bring back. (and since it was fully sponsored by the home affairs uniformed services thing, it was free too hahaz)

only drawback was that had to miss rugby gathering at harrys bar on fri :(

basically we did what we usually did at obs. (from fri to sun)
1) hiked around pulau ubin,
2) treasure hunt for some metal thinggys attached on trees that would never be found
3) pitching camps and then destroying them
4) kayaking around and through palau ubin (yea weeleng we rock)
5) getting anaemia from all the mosquitoes (yea i think i lost like 10 litres of blood). freaking mosquito repellent does not work AT ALL.
6) cooking raisin rice!! good job all the guys that were involved. which were me, jx, haojun and bing
7) climbing the inverse tower relatively easily.
8) romance on the inverse tower (right j&k?)

basically obs was not as physically or mentally draining as expected, esp since how freda (the organiser) described it like we were going to hell liddat. in fact it was like a 5 star hotel in bing's words. (just minus off all the damn mosquitoes and we could have lived there forever). well actually we also had a super pro instructor (gideon) who taught us a very unique way to cook rice and also our group was also damn pro. go barker!

more about what we did on monday and tuesday another time. when the comp does not cock up on me again.

p.s: huiwen U ARE RETARDED.

hello. i've decided to update.

first of all, i want to thank the GREAT Hui Wen for sending me physics which she sent long ago but SILLY me didnt save it. i'm so so so so so so so grateful to her. she's the best.

defeat

yup

we lost.

15-10. good job saints.

fucking hell. fucking fucking hell.

sorry i don't really get emotional while blogging but this is different. (i am holding back my tears as im writing this out. seriously i thought they were all gone. ahh fuck.)

well since its not good to wallow in self pity or contempt, i would just like to say a big thank you to all those who mattered to me, and then move on. (time to clear the mountain of tutorials and assignments :S)

my family: to mum, dad, lijie, thanks for putting up with all my lame excuses why im too tired to study cos of training, for putting up with all my weird moods, and thanks for being there always, for supporting me during my hardest times. though i may not say it directly to your faces, and i may not show it, i really love u all.

my classmates: who have put up with my constant changes in moods for the past month.
marcus, yockteng, lizhan, jon and yuanhao who had to put up with all of my bullshit and gaying around in class. (that won't end for a while :P especially for yockteng)
liru, evelyn, jeslyn, sinhui, sam, huiwen and shuyi, well, for also putting up with all my bullshit and crap.
bimbos, for brightening up my mood sometimes with all of your lameness and pure weirdness. (Imagine Sherlene going "GEEEELLGEEEELLL!!!")
even michelle, whom, when we were still talking terms, told me never to neglect my training and my teammates. yea thanks.
siyuan, my ragdoll in class (get used to getting thrown around hah!)
mingchuan, who had nothing but words of encouragement for me always (happy birthday btw)
charlotte, who sometimes kept notes for me when i wasnt around, who was always so supportive of the rugby season even though she was so damn busy with her tennis/piano/mugging/whateverelse.

basically thanks to all of my classmates, sometimes u all really make my day.

my teachers: who have put up with all my excuses of why im so tired in lessons, why my work is late or not handed in, why why why. Mrs Lim, Mr Koh, Mr Tan, Miss Chia and Mr Lim. sometimes i know i really infuriate u all by my slackness. don't worry i will start my hardcore mugging now that i have no excuses. don't worry about me.

the supporters today: thanks to all of the supporters and councilors who actually bothered to come to the desolate place that is the home academy. Really meant a lot to us for u all to be there, cheering us on when we are winning and even when we were down. really sorry that we could not give u guys a victory. really sorry that you all had to see us break down. The Instituition Anthem at the end just did it for us. most of us just let our emotions flow. Anyway we really appreciate and would like to send a big thank you to everyone who was there. all my friends whom i saw there (chenwei, bencai, guang, too many to think)

Cat, Shumin & Dani & Evelyn: thanks for the "care packages" that we received before our finals match (mine are still unopened and uneaten). and of course, all the touch ruggers who were there with the supporters to support us. (carmen, michellekoo, nina, amanda and others whom i know by face but not by name)

Mr Blackburn, Rhys, Mr Siva & Mr Khamel: mr blackburn, our head coach, who was the one most instrumental in helping us reach the finals and bringing us so close to victory. this guy is seriously a brilliant man and it was an honour to be able to work with him. Rhys, our forwards coach. Mr Siva, our teacher in charge, who was albeit a bit niao with us on at times for our conduct. (though we know it was for our own good. yea) Mr Khamel, our other teacher in charge

and of course,

the ruggers: a big shout out to the guys in school that mattered the most to me. where do i even begin?

It has been an honour and a prilivege to be with u guys in the rugby team, going out on the field, sweating, bleeding, crying with u guys. Winning with u guys, fighting, battling, falling with u all. Today, though we lost, you all are my heroes. u all are my idols. we all are champions together.

so what if we did not win anything in our 6 years together?
so what if we did not feel as if we accomplish anything?

so what if we have each other?

in our 6 years, we have gained each other. we have grown up in these 6 years knowing that someone would always be there to help u, to protect and defend you, to watch our backs, to die for u. these bonds forged are stronger than steel or adamantium or whatever. so dint we accomplish something? was 6 years really for naught?

we are a band of brothers.
we win as a band of brothers.
we lose as a band of brothers.
we die as a band of brothers.
no matter what, we will always have each other.

we know each others most private secrets, we share our most private secrets, we shall always treasure the bonds of friendship that we have made. not even the saints or the apostles or whoever can take that away from us.

remember who we are playing for. true, we are representing raffles, we are playing for raffles, but we go into any match or competition not for our own individual selfs, but for each other. for the guy next to you, for the guy whom you will place your life in, for the guy who has been through hell and back for you.

everyone in the team: ilman, glen, jed, wenloong, senthil, jaaf, arjun, wenjie, ryan, hanyi, steve, don, myself, thadd, bigaaron, smallaaron, karwei, cheemeng, just, zhehan, nazi, mark, stuart, justin, roland, david, joel, john, bentun and daniel. we are all winners. i owe everything to u guys.
everyone in the team today mattered the most to me. everyone. so screw the result and move on.

and so a chapter closes.

Hello! This is Evelyn hijacking Tubby's blog because he really sucks at updating. Stagnant blog, grrrr.

Tubby's favourite break time is Tuesday's 1 pm lunch break, no prizes for guessing why teeheehee.

Hmm. Tubby is a boring boy so I don't know what to write about him. Hmm.

It's actually Physics prac now, but we're in the computer lab, and Mr Lim (being himself) is talking happily to the floor and not to us, which explains why we're all typing away on our computers even though this practical session has nothing whatsoever to do with computers. Oh no poor Mr Lim. Tubby says he hasn't done any Physics tutorials since April! Which is surprisingly a lot better than Liru and I, who haven't touched any since, um, last year. Hahaha. Good job, Tubby!

Perhaps after this, I should productively use my time here in Physics prac, and study Bio or something.

(I hope dear Mr Lim doesn't read blogs! Just in case: We <3 you Mr Lim! Please forgive us of our grievous sins.)

Ok now, I shall show you the masterpiece that I created, dedicated to Tubby, inspired by his sunburn.

Presenting,

Tubby's Day
- Written by Evelyn

Tubby was sunburnt the other day
And now his face is badly peeling.
Upon discovery, all he could say,
Was "You don't know the pain I'm feeling!"

He struggled long and hard to find
The very object of his desire.
However, fate was being unkind ...
For he could find no moisturizer!

Now, wasn't that brilliant? (:

Ok The End of Evelyn's nonsense. Leave a comment because Tubby loves comments (:

Bye! (: (: (:

PS: And I gave him a tagboard! :D

Dance Night (and whatever else happened on SAT)

ok ok the dance night update. the one everyone is bugging me about.

dance night, of course, did not dissapoint at all. yup. all the items were really very awesome. like really wow. but i still think the best were the opening item and the fever thinggy.

(btw the title of the song used in the opening item is We're all in this together)

really enjoyed myself, but would have enjoyed myself more if CERTAIN councilors did not msg me during the items or kept sniggering when i went past them. (grr:X)

thoughts are still rather jumbled up soo
- GO NIGEL!!! hahaz u dint kill anyone on stage with your dancing
- fever was nice
- somehow all the chinese dancers look the same
- evelyn looks so weird in the clog dance (hahaz)
- virtually no leg room at where i was seating (okok i had my training gear with me)
- ryan who kept offering to help me search for her (like i needed any help)
- fever was nice
- people who kept asking me who the flowers were for
- jeremy mark zomg!!!
- funky hip-hop by cat and others!! never fail to impress
- fever was nice
- evelyn who PUSHED me there
- chenweis and linette/joshuas waaaaaah waaaaah waaaahh!!! and waah.
- all the other surrounding people. you weirdos. fine u got your show :P

ok tts about it for dance night. was supposed to go chenweis house after dance night but was too sleepy in the end.

be honest!

have u ever

1) smoked
2) consumed alcohol

ORA day

today was such a fun but tiring day! ora then r project (will blog about it soon i hope)

first off, reached school at 7.30 when the bears were supposed to come. was quite retarded cos everyone around us was happily preparing all their food/games/otherstuff and we were like stoning. in the end the bears came at about 8. don was late hahaz.

(btw me wenloong jed and cheemeng were supposed to get free toast from killiney for helping them carry stuff. and in the end we forgot bleahz.)

Bears are sooo funky!!! only $25 for each :D

see the bears demonstrating a perfect front row bind. (courtesy of me :D was bored)

surprisingly we managed to clear the entire stock of 80 bears by about 1pm. damn we are prooo. even the super tight green jerseys sold out. (ok that one we had less then 5).

EVERYONE (teachers, old boys, students, aunties) wanted a piece of the bears cos they are so irresistable!! (its the traditional jersey i bet).

for those who werent at the ora carnival, or had no money, or dint know we are selling bears at all, there are another few boxes of bears coming in next week (about 80 more? according to don) yups so just pre order with any of the ruggers. or call don directly at 91195381. or me at 97661293.

yay my mum bought a bear for me :D. but ill prolly buy a few more anyway. after all they are limited edition. AND they are wearing mini rugby jerseys.

bear (courtesy of mum!!) and ball (courtesy of shuyi) on my study table. dreading to do that bio tutorial...

bear doing bench press!! note the short arms. (srry was feeling really lame)

more about r project in the next post. dont forget to buy the bears!!! its limited edition so it will become real valuable in the future.

Tuesday

tuesdays are the best days!! mainly cos of the 2 hr nap (physics prac) that i can utilise to rest and relax. basically just slack around. not to mention the double recesses. :D

oh well.. anyway the day would have been so so very dull if not for someone..

Jonathan Koh!!!

as you can see he likes to eat. :D. wave to the camera you !$*&*(%%#

this person is one of the most interesting and intriging characters i have met in my entire life (a full 18 years!!). After all, who else can claim himself to be the prince of pun, the sovereign of stupidity, the lord of lameness, the baron of whateverstartswithb. anyone who has the luxury or curse of knowing yockteng (as he is affectionally known by everyone) would just HAVE to agree with me.

AND he is probably the only guy still in astro (besides our dearest senthil), and he is like the king of the violin.

one example of his weird sense of humour today.

(Scene1: Lizhan and Liru having some weird argument after Lizhan has insulted her for the 1000000th time. I just woke up and noticed the torrential rain outside. And realising that i have NO extra underwear......)

me: omfg wet underwear day!!

lizhan (to liru): see? i don't say weird stuff like that lorr.. i am so cultured.

jonkoh: yea just like bacteria.

funny? well its a you have to be there to find it funny sort of thing. and evelyn slept through the entire exchange despite the fact that we were making a hell lot of noise.

on an unrelated note, NS registration is HELLLLLL.
1) lag.
2) difficult to navigate around that site.
3) have to measure like every part of the body. weirdnessss.

Songs to have for real

after the disastrously popular first playlist of weirdness songs that i uploaded here a few months ago, (which had half the class and the rugby team singing the campfire song for a few WEEKS straight), i decided that for the sake of everyones eardrums and sanity i shall post a list of songs which in my opinion, should have at least won a grammy. or a be on everyones computer

and in no particular order......

1) Champagne Supernova -- Oasis
One of Oasis's best hits, this song is basically about getting high after drinking champagne and taking drugs after the same time. (according to Noel Gallager) but there are many other interpretations of this as well. like how you are sooooo addicted to someone that you learn for that person 24/7.

2) Wonderwall -- Oasis
The BEST Oasis song EVER. this is a song you will wanna sing to your lover all day and night. yea those who went to the oasis concert with me would remember who was screaming for them to sing wonderwall (btw thanks for the tix wenloong). YOU'RE MY WONDERWAAAAALLLLL

3) That's Why (You Go Away) -- Michael Learns to Rock
this song is a beauty... the usual sappy, sad, oh-i-just-broke-up-i-wanna-go-to-a-korner-and-cry song. those who were at befrienders last year can try to recall me and guanghao multilating that song when hanloong was singing it last year. most of u would have heard this song when u were young.

4) The Actor -- Michael Learns to Rock
another mltr song. frankly all of their songs are really good. they are like that hoobastank of the 1990s, except that they keep their shirts on during their concerts and they are from denmark. this song has no particular significance (unless your crush is dating someone really popular/rich/handsome/supermangodlike) but the tune and lyrics are really good.

hmmm dammit seems like every song is really good. like duh if not why are they here??

5) My Boo -- Alicia Keys & Usher
I think duets are so nice. don't you think so? my boooooooooooo

6) Almost Here -- Delta Goodrem & Brian Mcfadden
Another duet. a song that makes you sit down and think 'hey, maybe girls are NOT the bane of our existence, but they ARE our existence'. just for the duration of that song. then u return to your ohgirlsicouldntcarelessaboutthem mode.

7) I Don't Want To Miss A Thing -- Aerosmith
just imagine you waking up next to your partner (of an opposite sex). You gaze into those eyes lovingly and both of you embrace together. Use your imagination for part 2. oh and the fact that is was the OST for Armageddon, which was one of the best movies ever made. (that will come in a later post)

8) Hotel California -- Eagles
eagles. why? cos they just own everyone else in acoustic guitar. except maybe for eric clapton. yea pple may say that this song is about hell and is satanic and if u listen to it backwards you will hear the devil speaking. well then don't listen to it.

9) Blurry -- Puddle of Mudd
forget that the band has a really horrible name. just listen to the lyrics and the acoustics. makes you want to hate the world and kill someone. yea an idea psyche up song i think.

10) Tilt Ya Head Back -- Christina Aguilera & Nelly
and yet another duet, except that this one is sooooo saucy. yea. and it is sams favourite song. hmm why don't we sing this together anymore?

11) Get Low -- Lil Jon & the Eastside Boyz (Featuring Ying Yang Twins)
hoho. the crown jewel of all crunk music, the regent of R&B, the symbol of sleeeeazy. it's seriously hard not to like this song.

hmmm no songs for female artistes. so much for female equality.

oh well that will be reseved till next time.

Note to everyone: Watch Munich and V for Vendetta (Wee for wendetta in senthil's case :D) both movies are really really really really really good. like the best movies i ever saw since Pirates of the Caribbean and Terminator 3 came out. wad happened to all the good movies last year?

shes beautiful....

"she sat behind the glass covered display, looking at us slyly and sending come-hither glances. All of us turned around and could only stare in heightened arousal.
As she lay eagle spread on her comfortable yet spartan counter, we would only wonder how it would be to be near her, relishing her, pressing her buttons and how she would pleasure us in turn, how she would submit willingly to our every command without any hesitation.
She is perfect in every way. She is truly a gift from God.
This was the object of our dreams, our desires. But her price was just too high. We walked away from the small shop dejected and already knowing someone else would be there before us. Already our attention on her was waning as we shuffled off to procure some refreshments.
But some of us will never forget. Some of us will be back for her. We will return."

we will come back for u!!

the events that transpired above occurred after weights on friday, when we passed by the microsoft store. ahhh xbox 360, u are the one for me. you are the perfection. but i think i shud only get it after a levels or ill be really really screwed.
to convince any other skeptics
Xbox 360 official site
to wenjie: xbox 360 TOTALLY OWNS PS3
hahaz was really bored. what other ways to express your creativity??

on other notes

class outing to marinaa!! after watching going marks house with ruggers. which was after weights. watched the gods must be crazy 2 and other assorted videos.

gods must be crazy 2 is seriously one of the most retarded shows i have watched. slapstick humour + racist humour. i advice anyone who has an excess of 1000000000 brain cells or too much time to rent and watch it. btw the lead actor had a ! in his name. was like na!xtu or smth. really funky..

marina south!!
met up with the class at about 1930 after sharing cab with DINGSTERZ back to bishan mrt. would have been lost if not for the precise instructions that marcus gave.
STEAMBOAT BUFFET!!!! eat!!! watch charity skewer prawns!!! eat!!! watch lizhan scream when prawns got skewered!!! eat!!! laugh at siyuan!!! eat!!! watch bear skewer prawns!! etcetc. then went to the waterfront. ahhh that place is so nice and romantic. so tranquil, quiet, everything u would look for if u were looking for a romantic location.. (somehow i wasnt bitten by mosquitoes) but we scared away a couple who were about to make out. stupid teenagers.
realised that huiwen has a quite limited knowledge on general knowledge. hahaz.
"How did WW2 affect the demographic model of western europe?"
"umm.... huh?"
u get the idea. well she was the one who wanted to talk about serious stuff instead of guys or girls :P

oh NOSE dingszters is the most up and coming blog of the week. visit it again!!!!

had dinner with ruggers after training, where we had a nice long talk from very important worldly issues ranging from how aids was first transmitted (aha a human did NOT screw a chimp) to how joel lum's brother sees life. (sex for dinner, death for breakfast). LOLL.

ok that was a really quick update.. will be putting more energy into DINGSTERZROX!!!!! a website dedicated to our handsomest and dearest friend ryan tan yong ding!!! dont forget to go!!! DINGSTERZROX!!!

new link to DINGSTERZROX!!!

bio: 0.000000000000001%
maths: 50%
physics: 25%
chemistry: 25%
that adds up to a grand total of 100%!!! wow im so well prepared indeed. oh well i mean who is really prepared for common tests? freaks in 3p maybe..

nothing really interesting is happening now. main highlight of the day? training in the morning. other than that? a dead day.

been a bit pissed off lately cos coach said i might not make the 1st 28 of rugby. dammit got to work harder to ensure that i stay and not lose my position to some j1.. no offense on the ji ruggers. great pple u all are. love u guys too :D.

sorry mark for nearly gouging your eye out on thursdays training. well if is makes u feel better i have 2 chunks of flesh missing from the hands now. from the same accident. really sorry and guilty about it.

really sorry again for the recent boring updates lately. just cant think of anything interesting to say except about the intricasies of my soooo interesting life.

random update

cant think of a title. so this shall be my title :D. seriously need a tagboard. pple have been asking me when will i get a tagboard so well i will get one soon. (JON HELP ME GET ONE PLSS) yup im still a noobie when it comes to blogging. can tell by my blogskin and my lack of design.

havent started on bio yet. hahaz. so dead. dont think i will start. who the hell will be so crazy to study a whole years syllabus??? maybe pple like yiling and wenjie. freaks. yeah. just gonna do chem and physics (which i dont really know about anyway)

sighs. common tests. tired. sian. bored. sleepy (not). hyper (maybe). listening to more angry rap music maybe tts why i cant sleep. shud try doing dc circuits later :(

tried to tinker around with my template. got huiwens name correct hahaz (huiweRn). cant believe i dint notice that until recently.

strange that i thought that i had a lot to update but now, block again. so until i can remember, happy mugging/stoning/praying for salvation.

Angry Rap Music

common tests are really soon. bleahzz. lets hope everyone is not as hopeless as me (like i havent started on bio zomg)

Passing the time by listening to very angry rap music. (new playlist on my ipod, made by me, for me.)
remember previously all i did was listen to rock? pple like mong shud know..
got my inspiration to create such a playlist from nigel, whose pod had nothing but rap music. yea hes warped :P. at least better than sam or shuyi or huiwen who listen to NOTHING but sleazy songs. creepy.

songs include:
Get Low (Featuring Ying yang Twins) -- Lil Jon & the Eastside Boyz
Lean Back -- Fat Joe
Get Back -- Ludacris

well basically any songs with the words f**k or muddafu**ker or b1tches or any other fanciful language. (mind the censors cos there are grils reading this too). or songs by the ying yang twins. weird that these songs can give u strength in times when u dont really need strength.

just some random musings.

to all those pple having relationship problems, relaxxxxx. dont worry about it cos it will all come to pass. know that ill be there for BOTH of u if u all need someone to talk to. and dont do anything stupid plssss. too much weird shit has been happening lately.

For those who are depressed or recently depressed, DONT GET ANY IDEAS FROM THE RECENT HAPPENINGS. u all can and would get through it and pple will always be there for u. strange that all these weird shit always happens near the common tests or promos.

why do i keep saying weird shit? weird shit. and why am i so sentimental today? more weird shit. must be from reading too many blogs.

P.S : a hell lot of pple have been asking me who is Malcolm x and why i keep using his random quote. malcolm x is well a militarist human-rights leader. link is here .lazy to type is all out. go read if u have the time and use him in gp essay or smth. oh btw he was assasinated. like most other well known pple we know. well i find that he is kinda cool. except for that part where he got assasinated

A long long waited update part II

hello again. seems that apparently i have much more to update about. what happened in the last 2++ months when blog was dead..

valentines day: seems like suddenly EVERYONE was attached on valentines day. man whats it with u teenagers and getting hitched.. anyway the non-attached ruggers (me, mark, wenloong and many more) became the founding members of the SOVD group (single on valentines day) (officially founding date -- 14/2/06.) (next meeting pending) First meeting for the highly exclusive SOVD was after training on that day. went to j8. SOVD + justin/evelyn + jaaf/sandya. ok so we accepted some couples. was great fun. discovered many new things about senthil. :D . btw thanks for all those valentines msgs from assorted pple. happy valentines day (only about a few weeks laggy)

ok writers blog for a while. gettit?? (writers block haha. nvm)

to all those who said i dont update: see i updated :D. and its a super long post too. ahh wad else wad else.

common tests: SCREW U COMMON TESTS I HATE U I REALLY REALLY HATE U. wow i feel a hell lot better. ok got to start studying bllleeaaahhhzzzz. thx for the rather (weird) but funny advice from liru and ethel. these are my aims for common tests.
maths-- A or else miss tok will positively KILL me.
chem/phys-- the min grade for me to stay in S
bio-- the sacrificial lamb (again)
im calm. oh boy im really calm.

more new links!!: jeslyn and sinhui and angel . i know some pple who will be really interested ^^

Chinese AO: whee C5!! means i can drop chinese!!! OMG HAPPY DAYS!!! nothing wrong with getting a c5. "C5 only?? harrr" quoted from some shithead in rjc. not saying who. yea only a few pple got C5. (me, jonkong, mong, wenloong, glenhuang, nigel, gao, alvinkok, jiawei) and these are only the pple i can recall. btw congrats to charlotte who got A1 (omg sick) and sam who got b3 (which is very good for her :P) and matheus who got b3 too :D and chenwei B4 (omg u beat me)

a long long long long awaited update

title says it all.. so so much has happened since i last updated. strange how so much can change in just 2 months. dont really know where to start bleahs. yet i dont know how to start. all my thoughts are still jumbled. just a brief update on my life thus far.

well school has reopened 2 months ago. seems like a long time right? but time really flies. before u know it it is common test arghs. so so dead.

this year has really changed for me. ive started talking to and befriending pple i havent really been talking to last year, and moving away from people i once counted as friends. but on the other hand, would u considered pple who lied to u as friends? fags. yes it still haunts me to this day. and yes it IS infuriating. strangely im still rational (am i?) ah well as jonkong or mong will say, 'chill'. or emerson 'take it easy' or ryan 'forget it'. but tell me how u !#$%ing take it easy. or how to #$%^ing chill. like wtf would u do if u were me? !#$%ing hell . go *&^% yrselfs both of u. see im rational. im not swearing at all. im keeping my wits. im cool. yes indeedy. (whoever wants to know about it just ask me in school)

realised my potential in dancing when i could TEACH lindyhop :D. nah just kidding. lindyhop is really quite fun and im sure everyone had fun learning and dancing during civics. easily the most fun civics period of all time. had a kick teaching pple how to dance and watching pple screw up on the simpliest steps :D. nah i dont mean it. but seriously it was really funny. like lizhan who could NEVER get the dance steps right (rock step?? step?) , or siyuan, who is a danger to everyone 2m around him when he dances. poor jeslyn and huiwen and shuyi. thanks and much thanks to evelyn and justintan for teaching me how to dance in the first place, and being patient when I screwed up (prolly more times than lizhan). see i dint let u guys down. and of course the other dance teachers, justinng and liru. was really really fun

btw we (ruggers) WON NAVY 10s and UWC 10s!!! woot!!!! beat the shit out ac and saints. :D:D:D fear us mann. sorry that was rather old news. oh and the new jerseys came finally after like 2-3 months. and damn we look good in them. at least most of us. "wenloong i dint know u had a physique!" quoted from Marcus Blackburn. yes im sure wenloong likes our new jerseys very much. the only time i tried mine was with don before pe on wednesday and after that i could not remove it on my own. needed someone to strip it off me. its like wearing a freakin sports bra. or a corset. or a combination of both. but damn we feel sexy. photos of us with our super super jerseys will come at the next update. much later. yea much much later.

Lizhans presentation on Niecszhen on friday was surprisingly easy to understand. honestly. really really good. too bad u only had 10 mins :S. sorry that was really random.

Movies to watch soon:
Pirates of the Caribbean 2 (can almost hear shuyi sam and huiwen screamingz. bloom!! depp!!)
Munich (must must must watch)
Walk the Line
Brookback Mountain!! (yay lizhan lets goo)
Pink Panther
and whatever action movie is coming out

btw thanks mingchuan for doing up the class yearbook page on such last notice. yea i rather know u rather be studying now. even i rather be studying now.

On some occasions God may appear cruel. There would be times when no one would comprehend his meaning. The innocent would suffer unjustly, perhaps more than the wicked.

There would be pain that would be underserved, grief which would appear so great that it was impossible to believe one would escape its morbid clutches.

One would ask whether a loving God would allow such things to happen at all. This would be the Devil talking, whispering in our ears at the moment of our greatest weakness and vulnerability. God's grace, though sometimes incomprehensible, was there to make us free.

We make our own prisons.

We, not him, would ultimately decide to send ourselves to eternal salvation or damnation.

He would love us through our agonies and in the end, redeem us with his kindness.

Once we had walked the path towards him.

Once we had found our own particular path to paradise.

Now is the time.

Jokes

wow whee its raining heavily.

so heavy that my study table is wet. so that gives me an excuse to (finally) blog. hahaz.
the past few days have been rather depressing. promo results, op dry run, and now (horror of horrors!!!) chinese ao. not to mention the previous crazy trainings. (which were rather fun btw :D)

since the weather is so dreary, ill tell some of my better jokes to lighten the mood and make your day happier. (or at least the jokes that i remembered)

Joke 1
A doctor, an engineer and a politician were having an argument about whose profession was the oldest in the world.
"God took a rib out of Adam and created Eve. That is the world's first surgical operation, thus my job is the oldest," said the surgeon.
"yeah yeah but before God did that, he created the Earth out of the chaos that was the universe! That is a really marvelous piece of engineering!" countered the engineer.
The politician looked at them truimphantly and said,"Aha! but who created the chaos?"

not an insult to any current or would be politicians reading this blog, but if i disappear suddenly u all probably know wad happened. (I.S.A.I.S.A.I.S.A.I.S.A.)

Joke 2
In the early 1900s in Singapore, there were still tigers roaming around the jungles in Bras Brasah. It was at about this time when a refined englishman, Mr Westinham, was entertaining his guests in his colonial mansion.
"That's a wonderful stuffed tiger u got there," commented one of his guests.
Mr Westinham replied,"Thank you. I got that creature when i was out hunting with my good friend, Frank Swettenham. He accidentally kicked the tiger in the nuts when it was sleeping but then together we managed to subdue and kill it."
"Wow, super! What's it stuffed with, though?" asked the curious guest.
"Frank Swettenham," came the reply.

well with all the racist blogs being shut down and their writers prosecuted, let me say that this is not any comment towards our beloved eurasian community. Any resemblence of this event to anyone died or alive is purely coincidental.

Joke 3 (Confucius Jokes!!)
Wise man Confucius says: Success is relative. The greater the success the more the relatives.
Confucius he says: Person who drives a second-hand car knows how it is to drive a bargain.

Joke 4
The doctor welcomed his outpatient into his clinic and said, "Mrs Tan, I have some good news for you."
"Why thank you doctor, but I'm a Miss Tan, not Mrs Tan. I'm not married yet you see," she replied shyly.
"Well um Miss Tan, I have some bad news for you." doc replied.

ok ran out of jokes for now. tired see. maybe next time will have more. depends on my mood haha.

to a certain someone: you told me once that bad things always happen to you when it rains. well it's raining like hell now. i just can't help thinking about you now and i just hope and pray that nothing bad happens to you. (yea i know i dont usually pray.) You've been through enough already and i dont want to see you hurt again. i want you to know that i'm not pissed off with you or anything despite what other pple might say. yea and well we have some issues to iron out. maybe we should talk again some time soon.

til next time

Tagged!

ok i've been tagged by wenloong. hmm thanks.

Instructions of the tag: Given a topic, you are to write down your answers in your blog, and then send the same topic to 5 other people. Write down the names of these 5 people and link to them on your blog. Go visit their blogs to notify them that they are tagged. The 5 people who are tagged should, in their own blogs, write down the name and the link of the person who tagged them, answer the same topic, and send it to another 5 people, etc.

yeah i just copied this from his blog direct. the marvels of technology. yesh indeed.

and my top 5 quirks? hmm again.

1. oh well most pple have this anyway. umm tend to overeat at buffets and end up being unable to get off my chair afterwards. yea then i will feel dam sick and guilty of how this would affect my training regime. feel myself getting so unfit already just thinking of it. :(

2. having no conscience? well sometimes i make fun of pple so much so that they almost have a breakdown. somehow my accomplices (lizhan? jon?) feel guilty about it. and i feel nothing. yea this is dam bad. maybe i will change it soon. or maybe not.

3. listening to music as much as possible- travelling, walking, running, during lectures, etc etc. even sleeping. its amazing how coldplay can put u to sleep dam fast. and i wonder why my ipod batts drain so dam fast.

4. being stubborn i guess. u all can ask ryan or nick soh. never really give up on things even if i have absolutely no hope. cos there's always that small small small chance.. and the fact that im human.

mental block wait a min...

5. my inaccurate first impressions of pple. like at first i thought that lizhan was gay, chenwei was a freakin poser, mong was an ac faggot, shuyi was an ice princess, michelle was a spolit brat etc etc etc. for some pple i was really really wrong. for others well..

whee that took quite a long time to do.
and the next 5 lucky pple are
evelyn!! haha.
shuyi!!
dings!
roland
lam

(too little links on my blog sorry loong.)
uneagerly anticipating the return of promo results tomorrow, or tomorrow tomorrow.

have fun for now u pple. live and let live.

Aftermath/bio/physics/chem

title says all. now i shall give everyone a blow by blow account on the papers. (wenloong pls sit down.) pardon the lameness.

Chem: chem paper was easy relative to the past year papers and the cts. should be able to get A. worst case is B. made some careless mistakes here and there but should be ok. cmon i need this A..

Physics: same as chem, as in easy relative to cts. but was still quite bad as my mcq was disastrous. and i didnt really study harmonic motion. this despite the rumours that i finished the entire tys. (hmmm? evelyn?) oh well no ones perfect i guess. A if im really really lucky. already quite sure i will get B. boohoo

Biology: hoho. bio bio bio.. where do i start. the whole paper was wrong from the 1st page. (yea i just found out i got 10 wrong for my mcq. and mcq was supposed to be easy.) anyway the structured was very very very bad. well i could have skipped that whole section and would have got the same marks if i didnt skip it. essays were ok in general, cept that i didnt draw table for the phosphorylation question. so minus marks. just gimme a C can liao. not asking much.

Math: the easiest out of all the papers. most of my answers were correct after cross checking with reliable sources like wenjie and (maybe^^)lizhan. confident that i will get A in this. most confident in this subject. B will be a real real real shocker.

on the whole the promos were definitely much better than cts, and i actually studied for the promos for many many many hrs. (cts i had a total of 3hrs? not including the days before the papers) so there! :D

wishing everyone the best of luck to get their s paper combi, and get promoted of course.

to the certain someone who likes butterfly wings (inside joke): dont worry too much about your promos. seriously. u will prolly own all of us anyway. and relax cos u will get your 2 s papers. and maybe 3. (sorry if it sounds quite bad. dont really have your pwerful vocab.)

next class outing to east coast park will prolly be after chinese ao. (be considerate guys/girls/whatever. some pple take chinese. anyway most of the pple that went takes chinese. so wait. :D)

bbye all. wheesee. have fun while u all can guys. cos life in general is bad. very very bad. everything burns.

Aftermath

And so it is over.
hooray or so i think.
basically i send most of promos thinking of what im gonna do after promos and now that promos are over, i actually dont really know what to do. (i mean, there's a limit to how much one can really dota. and my comp has been churning out fatal errors suddenly)
class outing on friday was fun fun fun. fun like the sentosa trip but in a different way. main diff is that east coast park is 5 mins from my house? whereas sentosa is like dunno where.
wad did we do there? usual beach stuff. except most of the time we werent actually on the beach, but at macs, or cathay bowl, or just basically everywhere except on the beach itself. and the sea of course.
who went? mostly the usual pple doh. me lizhan jonk yockteng joel mong mat michelle sam shuyi. and surprisingly justin liru and ethel came along too.
Monkey frisbee was dam fun, where yock teng astounded us with his proness at frisbee. lightning handz. high part was when michelles frisbee became stuck on the pavilion. yea then we were taking potshots at it to get it down by using a variety of other things, such as rugby ball and soccer ball. then yockteng got the brilliant brainwave of borrowing a stick to get a frisbee down.
hero of the day: definitely yockteng.
after frisbee we went to bike and skate. and i finally learnt to bike despite staying in the east for half my life. learnt to bike in about 5 mins! yea joel is a dam good teacher. or maybe im just a fast learner lol.. i mean compared to those who were learning how to skate. like getting tortored. lizhans super fall, jons super fall, etc etc etc.. doesnt help when me and justin were just biking around them haha.
bowling was chaotic for me. first time (i tink) that i was bowling. if i had bowled last time i couldnt remember. but bowling was really bad bad bad. and it really didnt help that i was bowling in the same lane as sam and michelle.

Final Scoreboard
S.P. (sam) 150+
M.L. (mich) 150+
T.K. (tubby kong. grr) 33

sad sad sad game. later games werent that bad as i expected as i was bowling with jon and joel. both were bowling newbies also. so the pressure wasnt that bad. somehow throwing the ball around doesnt really help. the ball goes faster into the drain infact.

Class outing at east coast park again soon!!!

tubby out

De Promos

Weekend before the gauntlet week. (gauntlet cos all the papers are on consec. days)
ahh so so so screwed for bio... and pple say that that's the easiest science. anyway GP and chinese were traumatic at best.

GP-- same day as lizhans birthday. (happy birthday lizhan btw). maybe tts why it went so badly for me lol.. did the essay on gender equality. actually wanted to do the one on patriotism but something went wrong in the planning stages so it got shelved. ended writing something about carly fiorina and some other powerful women in the essay. so so so gonna fail. compre was not that bad. i mean it can't be as bad as compared to the essay. baby crack dotz.
at least im not that only one that found it chaotic.
wen jie- "wahh i'm gonna fail gp and get retained!!" ..ok.. tts coming from someone with 10 a1s.. then maybe nxt year rj will have no j2s at all. and 2000 j1s.
Chinese -- chinese was, erm well, its chinese. didn't really give a shit about it. ah well if they could just give me a pass.. (hey at least i didnt fall asleep during the main paper again! although i did during the zuo wen.)

and tomorrow is chem, then physics, then bio (horror!!!) and finally maths. and after maths freedom!!! nah actually got some things to sort out. but mostly freedom hee..
PS: those pple interested in working in my dads clinic tell me as soon as possible plsss
PPS: and 3Q can u all tell me whether u all want a chalet anot? gotta tell me fast cos i gotta book.
PPPS: good luck to everyone for promos!! esp to ruggers and 3Q!! seriously i hope no one gets retained and everyone gets their S paper choices.

to end off, well something weird happened to me today. woke up at about 10am feeling very dazed and stunned. and instead of using shaving foam to shave i ended up using my styling foam. and the weird thing is that i didnt realise until i was done shaving. felt the same though.
see promos brings out the weirdess in pple. scrap promos...

last post before promos

ok i'm seriously getting a bit worried for promos..
school is now, well more interesting. the game is on i guess. for all the pple that dont understand nvm.
spent the last maths lecture talking to shuyi about her favourite subject. ORLANDO BLOOM!!! yeah you would think that girls are more mature than guys. well sorry..
"omg he is so handsome"
"kate bosworth? who?"
"i emailed orlando bloom!!"
"omg he is so handsome"
"do you think orlando bloom is handsome? yes right? YES RIGHT? see tubby everyone says he is handsome!! better than your stupid tom cruise!"
well u get the drift. the bloom addicts. btw shuyi sometimes u resemble my sister in a really freakish way.. (sorry to jiawei if u had to endure the 45 mins of orlando bloom lectures. and who says i like tom cruise anyway? all i did was say i liked top gun.)

and today... our class the frisbee champs!
finally finally finally our class won at sports. which is like the first time and last time this entire year. thrashed the other classes in fact. haha must thank all the team members of course. me, lizhan, joel, jonkong, justinng, michelle, shuyi, charity. omg our class just rock. we were way way way owning. which other team can score a total of 16 goals in just 3 games? hahaz..
haiz back to studying again.

2 weeks to promos

read the title.
shouldn't you be studying right now?
oh well since you are here nvm. (yea and im doing some bio while writing this) haha oh well we all should unleash that mugger deep within us anyway..
not much really interesting happened the past week, unless you count the sudden breakout of the campfire song. CAMPFIRE SONG!!! :D. wow i didnt know i am such a trendsetter. dammit now that song is running through my head. better that song than tarzan and jane anyway.

well promos make pple quite cranky. like evelyn, who has been bitching about ** lately, or nigel who is suddenly physics god (thanks btw nigel), or emerson asking LBS qns, or joel leong staying back in the library to mugg, or liru who thinks i am pro in chem, or david who keeps asking if we (me ryan wenjie) have f maths TYS, etc etc etc.. yea and so on.
see they should ban promos. cuts out the weirdness in pple. cept that some pple have been mugging all year. like **** ***** or ** ****. try to figure it out. if you can good 4 u. if u ARE one of them too bad. get a frigging life..
and pple are actually starting to study at the rugby table! i mean besides justin and evelyn of course. much more productive i think then deciding who to eat first if all the ruggers were stranded on an island. joellum first(freakin' freeloader), then daniel/roland(eats most), then ilman/senthil(most meat). lamings agains..
ok back to the stardie table. bybyby

Last Day of Holidays

hmm.. holidays seem to pass too fast as usual. and as usual the end of the september hols means bad news. (for those that still dont know, promos. heh)
since today i dont really have much to blog about, i shall be weird again. here a little bit to put your mind off studying. Music!!

The Top Best Weird Songs
(a compilation by KongJunCheong. a must have on every ipod, ipod mini, ipod nano , ipod pico etc. Warning: your brainpower might decrease substanially on listening to these tunes.)
1. The Campfire Song Song (Feat. Patrick Starr) - Spongebob Squarepants. A sure win song bring out the retardness in you! and makes u feel like camping too.
2. Tarzan & Jane - Aqua. Whats there not to like about this song? funky rhythm, weird sounds, make u feel like swinging from tree to tree. Unleash the beast!!
3. Axel f - Crazy Frog. when u need a steady beat to just zone out after all that mugging. or dota. or just zone out anyway.
4. Hard Knock Life (Feat. Mini Me) - Dr Evil. makes you regret why didnt u just drop out of school to own a international criminal organisation. or a mini clone of yrself.
5. La Marseillaise/French National Anthem - France. When u ever feel the urge to rebel and chop off some heads. or just waste someone.
6. The Ding Dong Song - Gunter. weeeelll.. just listen to the freakin' lyrics. (Don't forget to blast it!) and we wonder why girls don't like this song.
7. Spongebob Squarepants Main Theme - Spongebob Squarepants (Though it sounds like Mr Krabbs). the best for the last. the weirdest song to end off the weirdest soundtrack ever.

IMPT NOTE: (The writer of this soundtrack is not liable to psychological damage or physical harm inflicted on anyone who attempts/bothers to listen to these songs. Please use this soundtrack at your own discretion. Do NOT attempt to claim compensation from the writer if you start to foam at the mouth or have a sudden feeling of nausea or roll over acting dead... lalala i didn't even hear you...)

ok thats that. maybe i will get to more serious stuff next week. or unless u really prefer to hear me bitching and groaning about the promos in 3 weeks time. or about just life itself
3 WEEKS TIME!!!!

and of course,

Dota Fever

oh man im addicted to dota again
and it's not my fault. yea i shall blame the ruggers, the former 4A pple and blizzard entertainment. while i'm at it i might as well blame promos too. why? cos promos make me so sian that i feel like dotaing. and the guy that invented the computer. and thomas edison for inventing electricity. all their fault.
Right.
okok i shall try to stop playing.. but how to stop if i am like owning in every game? lol ok sorry. sorry to all those i accused for making me addicted. well maybe except promos. (blogging after a dota game makes u feel cranky)
i am seriously going to die for promos. everyone is mugging so hard now!! what happened to the good old days like before o levels? where everyone was mugging like crazy anyway?
dammit i am really feeling weird. must be that freakin dynamics tutorial.

Onto more random stuff.
lost lost lost for physics. so lost in a way that it becomes funny really. opened my notes and realized that half the notes were empty and covered with doodles from lectures. (yea thanks sam/huiwen/michelle/shuyi) Tried doing the TYS, saw the number of qns there and closed the book soon anyway. (for dynamics).
Thought of something weird just now:
Physics is a very dynamic subject. since is changes everday why do they force us to learn it? this deprives us of moments to study other subjects/dota. Since so few of us have the potential for physics, it is obvious that we won't gravitate to that topic. breaks our momentum to study for other subjects too.
Ok i know that sounds quite bad. just a random random thought. sigh back to mugging again..

Class Outing

Finally get a chance to blog. since there was something wrong with blogspot yesterday i went to dota with lizhan instead. (haha lizhan u feeder. (ok sorry for the dota terminology)).
and yesterday (monday) was the class outing! 9 pple went. Both Jons, lizhan joel, michelle, sam, huiwen, marcus and myself. all the usual pple like wads new. saw red eye (suspence-thriller show). thought that it would be better cos it was directed by Wes Craven. (think freddy kruger) But overall was still ok.
After movie we went to the arcade for a while. me, jonkong, lizhan and marcus went to play this weird army shooting game, where u are some us soldiers are u are supposed to shoot a bunch of skellys. yea and i got the highest score by playing smart. (can already see the others rolling eyes. not my fault if u all died so fast :D). michelle and sam played some weird game. dont even know how to describe it. all games are weird i guess..
play pool where i lost 4 games in a row by potting in the black ball by mistake. like wth man.. and the total price of pool came up to $35. jeezx.. we should have more BBQs instead. (shuyi u reading this?)

ok going to do weights now. oh and michelle can u upload the class fotos? thanks. 6 days of hloidays left XD. ( i still havent cleaned my room).

On another note: i have no freakin idea how to change my template. or create a tagboard. or edit my profile. yea i new to this. and it doesnt help that everything here is in html. for all those pple i have not linked to yet, be patient pls..

okokok back to ionic equilibria liao..

Holidays (or lack of it)

whee its the holidays!!
or rather a pathetic excuse for a holiday. think of all the mugging that has to be done in 1 week? ... oh and my mum told me to tidy up my room b4 school reopens. not really sure which task is worse.
i have officially decided that promos are actually quite important and are actually worth studying for. to do all those s papers and stuff. (ok despite telling someone that i've started studying a long time ago, i am still way way way behind time.)
and have anyone decided which s paper combi is the best to take (for trip science doh)? all are, in my opinion, quite bad.
maths: compete with all the double maths people? what u crazy?
physics: yea and most of us dont understand the syllabus..
chemistry: look at physics
biology: 3 essays, and all the stuff to be written must be out of the syllabus. according to bertram.

so which s papers to take? hum.. none? maybe i should just focus on being promoted.
oh and to all the 3Q pple there. class outing on monday!

to less important stuff: need to go shopping desperately
new bag: had it with pple asking why is there duct tape on the straps of my bag. and i know it looks weird. (new trend. YAH MAN!!)
TYS (ten year series): muggerish i am now. was in popular with ben yesterday b4 training and we decided that additional TYSs (esp for physics and chem) are very important. Couldn't find any chinese guides by the way. Chinese = dead for both of us.
new stationery: new gear for new term. and to replace all my pens erasers rulers that mysteriously vanished this term.
thats about it really. happy muggings to everyone. XD

Note: thanks to ilman for giving me advice and hearing me out on that wednesday night. really really starting to rethink my priorities in life now. thanks. thanks. thanks!!! tts why you are the captain.

Remembering and Reminiscencing

first and foremost, HAPPY TEACHERS DAY TO ALL TEACHERS out there. whether we like or hate you, you all still play an integral part in our growth and for that we thank/may not thank u.
Was quite a fun day as the concert was quite short XD. ended about 9.30? and for once the songs were actually nice. 'somewhere over the rainbow' and the song tt the guy sang.. 'somewhere in time' or smth like that.. cant remember the title lols.. the skit was quite crappish but who cares anyway? at least the new teachers put in the effort. hmm.
In the audience: will remember today for some time.. amused by sam and huiwen listening to russell peters on ipod. (stoned.. then.... HAHAHAHAZ!!!!) smth along that line; me and justin tan singing the somewhere in time song; evelyn who brought notes to the concert (OMG); ccp shouting her thanks to us (3Q) for giving her the bird nest, which she did not (not) want; trying to touch my toes after doing hamstring curls yest (yea thanks justin :P); so on so on
befriender meeting after that. nuttin much except that the open house is quite a long time from now.
then we went back to ri with ruggers. yea its dam far away. (sorry for those who needed to go back to rg or ny lol) saw all my previous teachers. had some weird convos with them thou..
me: mam did i change a lot?
mrs ho: erm, bsides the new specs, lost weight, tts it
me: did i grow taller?
mrs ho: er..er... (all the 4A pple sniggering in the background) yea u did..
Its a kind of u-have-to-be-there-to-appreciate-the-joke thinggy.
mrs lai: ahh have u seen my daughter yet? u know gill?
mr tan: kuang jun zhang, hua wen ji ge ma?
regretted not being able to see dr lee and miss grace. ah well. u cant have everything.
went to ri field with other ruggers to look at the field for a last time b4 its gone :(. all the memories, the blood, sweat, tears so on. remembering the times after friday trainings, sitting in the middle of the field with the others, talking about stuff, crap, astronomy (senthil lol), so on. Remembering the Milford/Azhar/Haniff, Seah/Ray/Howe, yes and of course all the sam trainings. (how to forget?) all the times when u want to quit but u don't cos the guys next to u don't.
all the times.. thanks ruggers!! really dunno what i will be/will do without u guys..
then we all went to jaafers house. watched back to the future (sorry for spoiling the story just:D), n of course pizza party. (Don remind me to pay jessica 1.60 for taxi fare) oh and i learnt how to take penalty quick taps today (tapping with sTyLe)!! thanks roland!!
Peace out doods..

First Post

hello all..
weird that i will start my first post by bitching. well there was this teacher that caught a whole bunch of my classmates playing bridge in the canteen. yeah we were quite dumb but cmon, no need to smirk at us while scolding us right? (should have seen her face light up when we told her our ct is u no hu)
anyhowz, then she went to the cheng teng store to scold chen wei for helping the aunty sell cheng teng. (CHEN WEI U ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO SELL FOOD!!!) chen wei is also quite dumb (he was IN the store and dispensing cheng teng to us) but tts not the point. then when she saw me. she smirked at me again. maybe its my face..
After the s-cube seminar (which was good btw), u no hu saw me at the canteen and started scolding me. ask me who were the others; where were they, basically started interrogating me. now i know how lim bo seng felt. oooh and i have to write a 'long letter of apology' for her as well. haiz. well could be worse thou.
wrote the letter after dinner. meanwhile had a nice talk with sam while trying to write letter, study chem, and bio. pro multitasker i will be.
mum dint say anything when she signed e letter. dad laughed when i told him later. cool parents, i have :D
Last training in the RI field tomorrow.. nostalgia sets in. 5 yrs of history. 5 yrs of blood sweat n tears. and the legacy goes on
