Teachers' day/ Aces Day

kickboxing is pretty fun, and could be a good workout if you do it properly. i pity those who sat around and missed out the fun. the celebrations part was worse. there was no atmosphere, but i have to applaude council for putting up a good show and program.lastly, thank you teachers, since today is probably the only day i thank you.

went back to hpps after that with woon jeck and teresa. it was worth it, going back even though its already the 4th year. i saw and met many other school mates, observed and the experience was pretty wonderful. i would like to thank Mr Lim Ming Liang for bonding our class 6C '03 such that we are what we are today. faces, people change. but our class bond still stays strong after all these years.

went to andrew's house for lunch. pizza delivery to be specific. played blackjack, watched tv, watched movie, that's about it but i would say its a memorable day.
thank you 6cians once again.we couldn't do it without you (:

i thought _____ looked rather cute.

tonight's colours is boring. and i have to stress on that word. sitting in that stuffy minimally air conditioned hall listening to speeches, i think i fell asleep once or twice. dinner was again, minimal.

last year was definately better.much.

i have seriously done nothing this past weekend. and the past two weeks plus next week are supposedly the busiest weeks of this term. due to all those bloody projects and deadlines which i do not appreciate. clarification, i do not appreciate school at all. well if the ministry or some authority reads this and takes me out of school to give my place to some poor kid, i'll feel more worthy and accomplished for having done a good deed, for someone who would actually appreciate school.
but you know what?fat hope. because school is compulsory for all children in singapore. primary school i believe so. but we are obliged to go to school when we come from a family who can afford it. or even if we can't, someone will help put your kids in school. but why do we need everyone to be educated? there's just going to be so much competition out there in the future.

which brings me to another point on an article i read about in the newspaper about people hitting hundred years old. i'm one of them to wish not to live till that long. why? although i'm only 16, i still have a long way to go right? but you see, my body ain't exactly that young no matter how many people tell me that i am. creaking joints, leg problems, it'll get worse in the future. but it's still better than some others out there who'd rather have my body right? and i would have to agree with the columnists views as well nearer the back of today's lifestyle paper on the same article. well it's true isn't it. but i believe that the statistics of the number of people reaching hundred will drop soon. these old people featured have gone through the hardest of times, suffered, experienced, and i would say much more satisfied than many of us now. our generation are spoilt, aren't willing to suffer hardships, and will probably die early due to the high levels of stress created by the over-competitive environment (and the unsastisfactory life they will lead even though they have acquired the bunglow, Merc, Big Fat Company and own an island somewhere in the world). well that's my theory. oh and i have to mention another. when you're big-fat-rich-at-the-top-successful (and most probably mean), there's surely someone who would be jealous and there goes the headline "Assasination attempt successful on XXX CEO of XXX PTE LTD."

i am a selfish little kid who wrote this selfish little post and i don't regret it. one has got to let the pressure out of the pot..before the broth overflows and creates a mess.

Good Luck to prelim takers!

today during chinese class the teacher was digressing as usual, and the topic of maid abuse arose....and there was the ways to abuse a maid. dropping candlewax on the maid was one of the ways and my mind wheeled back to something i read a while back and i almost laughed out loud. kris i think you know what i was thinking about don't you.

well. an eventful day and i've got to endure training later.
an i'm digressing too much from my work.damn.

i have found new motivation to study (motivation does not equal to having the discipline) thanks to ling yi about recommending SMU for a university choice. and i can't believe i missed it out the last time i was university-surfing. i know i still have at least two years more to make a choice, but i rather go into business, it's just not me to do science. anyway. it's either SMU business school now or overseas - australia or japan. see how much influence my friends have on me? SMU offers exchange programs! to all over the world, including australia and japan! that's what's so attractive about the school. and its at bras basah too! near my house and near town. unlike NUS or NTU which is like isolated. they're hostel accomodation looks pretty comfortable too. the apartments looks very much like the post-war 4-storey HDB buildings that are opposite my house, just that it is near SMU and is renovated. They even have roof-top BBQ pits! room rates are a little expensive though, since its location is pretty central.

chinese o level results. out of 3 out of 6 wishes took the exams, and they all got the same grade! B3. isn't 3 such a nice number now? well, i shall wish those who are going to retake the exam at the end of the year good luck, and for all the other papers too. Prelims are definately coming up soon, so good luck for that first! congrats to kris on the expected grade.

photocopy shop assistant sounds like a pretty appealing part time job.

FOOD FOES/WOES

i think i'm falling sick. again.

anyway. I NEED TO EAT LESS aka control my diet. proof that i eat non-stop and too much is today's evidence - most recently, i ate two bowls of cereal 5 mins ago. look at the time now. starting from this morning - two slices of bread with two sausages and cheese, R-cube i had a pack of chips, 2 muffins, lunch - pastamania's HUGE baked rice. Dinner at home. and Supper [the cereal].

even worse was friday. breakfast - cereal. lunch - PASTA. huge plate which makes the capital letters look like a fullstop. then went out to plaza sing and had LUNCH NUMBER TWO. shared paiku (pork ribs) ramen at ajisen with sneha. movie - little bit of popcorn, CHIPS, maltesers [oh i miss them so] , then AFTER the movie, BEN's and JERRY's. damn. dinner - at home. supper - oh it was the night before. that means i have supper every other night!

STILL i need to control my diet [even the captain says so!] rawr. i'm seriously eating too much and training too little which makes me grow HORIZONTALLY and not vertically.
sigh.

today

i bought my very first CD for myself. as in the first time buying a CD for myself to listen, and not the first CD i own. i've got a few already.[2 to be specific. pathetic right?] well i'm not much of a CD buyer, and i don't really use CDs, so i don't see the point of why people keep buying CDs. i don't even have a CD player, and my tablet doesn't have a CD drive. so. i bought the CD on impluse i would say. i saw the cover, recognized her face in the NANA movie, and i like her songs. and it was on sale. so i bought it (:


here's the cover

yesterday was a good day to blog about, just that i forgot to blog about it last night. well, it'll be nothing interesting to whoever whom reads this, but i found it pretty satisfying.
it was a long day. starting with school and the usual, then it starts from after school, where i go to the library in ages to do some work with an. (point 1) ended up eating first, then drawing a futile graph, then going to sleep. not as productive as i thought i would be. next was drama meeting - lots of laughs, went through some games related to drama, then get chased out of the classroom after the drama meeting just when i wanted to start on one of the homeworks. sat in the canteen with jin yin and rachel, before going for tuition. here's the interesting part - met morgan and qi xuan in ntuc(more like, they found me), then saw tracy walking out of coro! had a really filling dinner, and at the same time the two boys from my tuition class were eating at golden rooster too. off to tuition, and spotted aleee walking out of crown centre! next, nicolle and cuitian found me at my tuition! that cheered my day up considerably. then came news of a certain classmate who was going to join the same maths tuition.sigh.

i would call it a day of chance meetings.

oh yes, drama meeting reminded me of drama senior's farewell - refer to adriani's blog for details. but one of the most important details that i must blog was the visual i had on that day. thee image has been scalded into my brain forever. jeremy humping gimlim as a dare. *shudders* i do believe my reaction was quite amused - laughing maniacally.

well one last thing.
HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY ALICIA! you are the first person to actually get to taste my chocolate cornflakes! a whole box of it too!
