Yoz... dispite having a tired body from yesterday's trek, i dragged myself to somerset to meet my classmates from 1S04...

We went to buy tickets for our movie n went to eat lunch together... after the lunch, we walked walked ard cine juz to kill the time before the movie starts... then we went into the movie theatre at 3pm... cause show starts at 3.15pm... the show we watched was hide n seek... basically, its a story with some blood here n there larz... with some twists as well... shall not say more... if not ruin the mood of those who wants to go n watch... but the most interesting part is that i saw a lady n a chair combined... lolx... this definately made me forget that the results r ganna be released...

MacRitchie Trek...

Wah... went for the 10.3km tree-top trial at MacRitchie today... its kinda fun to be embraced in nature once again...

Went off to causeway point to eat lunch after the lessons... finished at ard 1330h... then walked ard causeway to buy somethings which is needed... such as water, sweets n batteries(for my camera)... then left causeway at 1400h n reached MacRitchie at ard 1445h... went to change into pe attire n met ms lee down there... then waited for other ODAC members to come... then ms chew n mr sim were late because they had a meeting... so at ard 1545h, we finally started our trek...

The trek itself was ok... with ups... n downs... n ups again.... quite stony ground... lotsa leaves as well... lolx... but i enjoyed the walk though... i felt as though i was drenched in rain due to my perspiration... neway... after abt 5km or so, we reached the HSBC tree-top trail... yar larz... which is basically a 100m long n shaky narrow bridge abt 50++ meters above ground... actually, its much much higher... cause already did lots of climbing before reaching it... the view is fantastic... can see quite far away... all the buildings n the reservoir itself... then ms chew also told us some info abt the plants there... but its kinda short larz... very fast crossed over liaoz... then we trekked down and ended the trip...

It has been so long since i really went trekking... kinda happy to haf this chance today...

Issit a bad omen??

As we all know, the 'o' level results are going to be out soon... juz thinking back, it juz seemed to be yesterday that i m taking the exam(if onli it is true). Anyway, although i haf said in previous entry not to be worried as there is no point in doing so, but 2 incidents happened consecutively today which made me wonder if they meant anything at all.

I was at bukit gombak macdonalds today with a couple of friends.. dun ask me why i m there cause its a real long story.. so we chat n ate there until its abt time to go home... as per normal we walked out of the restaurant n walked to the train station, eating the ice cream cone on the way... juz as the door of the train closed, i suddenly realised that i haf dropped my file in the macdonalds... kinda started to panic as the file contains very precious lecture notes n tutorial worksheets... upon reaching bukit batok station, i took another train back to gombak n ran towards the macdonalds... thankfully, it is still there... was a little relieved... then when i stepped into the train at gombak again, the door of the train closed, n opened, n stayed open for the next 15 minutes... an announcement informed us that there is a problem with the train... then when i look out, every thing look normal... even the next train had arrived at the station but was unable to enter cause my train is still stuck there... the worst is yet to come.... when the train finally moved n reached jurong east, i was unable to get off... because jurong east is crowded with ppl wanting to board the train i m in(due to the delay)... was almost forced to take the train back to woodlands...

So you see, with the release of the 'o's so near, all these incidents could be an omen... they can also be juz coincidence... so... wad do u think?

This is redicules...

I decided that i muz post something abt the rumours which has been flying abt... I think that i muz state my view b4 it makes more ppl freak out...

Dear friends... do NOT... i repeat... DO NOT believe in wadever that ur friends tell u... no matter how reliable is the source... u want to believe, fine, but there is no course for worry... cause u would rather choose not to believe wad u see... so no point... further more... the results r already fixed... even if u worry to death, nth will change, y not instead put on a brave front, n be optimistic? hey.. u dun owe cambridge a miserable 3 months ok...

To put it simply, there is nth... absolutely nth that u can do to change ur results now... all u can do is to wait... n y do u want to make this wait miserable? there is no point... might as well enjoy urself fully b4 u get the results... right? thus i conclude, even if the rumours are true, there is no point in worrying..

Stay happy, with a smile...=))

Yeah!! Broke record for 2.4!!

Hm... today wasn't that bad.. wasn't really that tired... until PE.. so i shall not bore u with the contents of the day n go straight to PE..

Before the start of PE, the sky looks as though it is going to rain... many classmates start to pray for it to rain... like doing the rain dance... lolx.. but when PE actually starts, the clouds r suddenly gone n the sun is out shining on us... then we did some warm-ups n started to run... we had to run 3 rounds ard the teletubby hill(which i found out that total dist is slightly more than 2.4km) under the timing of 16 minutes(gals) n 11.30 minutes(guys)... kinda shocked when i heard the timing... cause my personal best was like 11.57minutes... n to make things worse, those that came back later than the timing, haf to go another round... sigh... so when we finally began(a while after the gals start), i told myself that i had to push if not i would haf to go one more round(which i dun really want to). The run was fantastic... during the run, it is really a test of ur mind n body... i realised that the body would gif up first... and wad keeps me going is my mind... keep telling myself that i cannot stop n muz maintain that speed... when i was at the 2.5 rounds mark... wah this is the time my mind almost collapse... cause i had been running faster than my usual speed since the beginning... n its the last 400m or so... finally, i dunno how, but i reached the final turn to the finish... i started to sprint n ran in with a timing of 11.07 minutes... After the run, we did some skipping, shuttle run, sit ups n push ups before we end the session...

Wah... totally shocked... i broke my personal best record which i held since last year... i had made an improvement of abt 50 seconds... so here i m... feeling both physically n mentally drained after the run... typing this entry...

ODAC

Hm.. .went for the first ODAC mtg today...

Started off with the teachers in charge telling us abt the cca... showing us the things which they haf planned for us for the rest of the year... n some ice breaking games after that... from all these i realised that i m ganna be a very busy person.... y? cause some times ODAC will take up 2 days of my week n i noe that SC will take at least one... while NPCC will take another... cool huh? well... actually i m thinking of dropping one of them.. perhaps after the first three months if i ever remain in innova.. haha... ok... after the ice breakers was actually a physical training session... went running ard here n there... abt 2 km in total... sigh... wonder how m i ganna survive tml's PE lesson... Some activities of ODAC which really attracted me was night cycling n the bukit timah trek which we will trek from macRicthe(correct spelling) to bukit timah(i think)... ya...

Okok... juz got home... gtg n bath n eat now... c ya...

Its not my day today...

As the tittle suggest, its totally not my day today... sigh...

Firstly.. i began the day feeling very tired because i couldn't fall alseep last night... ok... i think the last time i saw the clock it was already one in the morning... to make things worse, my alarm clock didn't go off... thus i woke up later than usual n rushed to get ready to leave for skool.. ok.. that was in the morning... n because of the lack of sleep, i cannot really concentrate through the lectures... then, in the afternoon, during chem practical, i broke a cornical flask while washing it during titration... omg... this is the first time i break something in the lab because of my clumsiness.. other times were because the aparatus were old... n these r all new ones... sigh... so sad after that... then... on my way home... i thought its finally time for me to take a short eye shut... yes it was... but when i reached jurong east.. i couldn't alight from my train... because some very inconsiderate ppl r blocking the way... they almost pushed me in n made me go all the way back to woodlands... but i decided its time to be nasty n i locked my arms n pushed my way out... thankfully there weren't any senior citizens...

I mean... hey guys.. .wads the hurry? i mean... there is always the next train... besides, everyone wants to go home as much as u do... u think i dun want to go home?? but i mean.. these r basic manners... to make matters worse, u r an adult... yet behaving like a 3 year old hurrying to board the train... kk.. some may say that they r juz standing outside the door... n there is a pathway.. this i believe... cause i haf seen it... but i tell u... wad i saw today is a true blue human wall... sigh... dun wanna talk abt it anymore...

Ok... juz got home.. now gtg n bath n eat... then got to finish up doing the practical today n maths tutorial... sigh...

happy mood =))

Yahoo!!! finally... after sitting down for like 2.5 hours, i haf settled my tutorials for good man... the rest of Sunday is now reserved for relaxation... nth but that... lolx

Ok... many ppl say that life in a junior college is very stressful... but in my opinion.. it isn't so... or at least not yet... perhaps the teachers r being kind as it is onli the first three months... but i doubt it... cause the P already said on first day that they start things right.. n they would teach as us though we r staying.. so... its full force... okok.. i muz admit that it is tiring... come on ppl... face it... how can u wake up early n return home late feeling energetic? if u can, plz teach me how... hm... come to think of it... although lots of work is given, but it is possible to finish... n it doesn't cost all ur free time... see? like me... still can be online n type this entry... but of course... i noe that this is onli the beginning... ganna haf project work coming in soon... but if we look at it this way... if we plan our time wisely... whenever we haf got the time along the week, we use it finish up all our work, we would not feel stressed at the end of it as we already done wad we need to submit next week.. .agree? dun need to answer me though... then we can enjoy our weekend with a peaceful mind that nth else is needed to be done... with work out of ur mind, u can really enjoy urself to the fullest...

Ok... thats that for now... wish u all a nice weekend b4 the whole routine starts again next week... :)

End of festive mood...

Haha... went to marsiling today in the morning to make origami roses for the student council's V day sale... neway... that took the morning... then in the afternoon, i went to hanni's hse to bai nian... thanks for inviting btw...

Ok... basically, all that we did in hanni's hse is to play poker cards n to play majiong... then some of them were playing with cash... well, basically, i haf no right to stop them... n nope... its not wrong at all.. but i do haf some of my own views which i want to share... i believe that it is alright to gamble... i mean.. its a form of relaxation n entertainment... that is if u dun get hooked onto it... but... gambling among friends is something which i discourage... not to say that i even encourage gambling in the first place... i feel that, between friends, money matters shld not come in.. i mean, if a friend is in need of course we can lend out a helping hand... but in this case... some times... during gambling, things may happen to spoil the friendship... of course some ppl would say that it is juz a game... i agree too... onli to a certain extend... it is a game when friends play for the sake of fun... however, if it becomes to be for the sake of money, then i dun think friendship even exist in between.. ya... thats it... so, try not to play with cash when u play with cards n stuff... yea... but if u want to... who's there to say no?

Neway... this marks the end of the festive mood... from tml onwards, its time to finish up all unfinished work so as to be able to hand in next monday...

New Year's Eve n New Year...

Ok... this is abt how i spent my New Year's Eve and day 1 of the Chinese New Year...

New Year's Eve:
Sigh... went to skool for the skool's CNY celebration... Although the skool planned many activities due to CNY, but onli 2 activities were carried out on the actual day itself... i wun elaborate on the other activites which included mural painting as well as banner making competitions... so the activity that was carried out yesterday was lantern making competition... yes... we were given 1 and a half hours to make a lantern with juz red packets... the process is kinda messy but at least we got out lantern out... we didn't win the competition though... cause many others look as though they bought it from the shops(but of course they didn't)... neway, the other activity was noise making competition... but this one was kinda pathetic... cause everyone was told to prepare for it by bringing things that make noise.. however, not all were given the chance to make the noise... Oh well... can't exactly blame the skool for it... afterall, our own hall is still under construction... n the CCAs like dance or drama are juz starting... i suppose next year's would be better(i hope)...

Went for mr chan n ms liang's birthday lunch at bugis after the activity.. actually its mr chan birthday... but ms liang's is juz 2 days later n so we celebrated both together... we were eating pastamania... its my first time there n so i sort of... ordered the wrong thing.. cause i dun like the sauce... sigh... other than that, the lunch was ok... we also got a cake for the both of them n sang happy birthday song to the both of them... then marvin wanted to smash a piece of cake on mr chan's face... but mr chan said 'put it down' n he sound so serious that i suppose marvin might had been frightened... then we talked a bit here n there n decided to be on our way...

I went home for a while then went out to holland village... where my grandparents(dad's side) lived... cause thats where all my uncles n aunties n cousins would gather for renuion dinner... after the dinner, we played captain's ball n badmintion... it was fun as it had been a long time since we haf gathered together so happily... well.. then we waited until midnight n started to pray to the chinese gods... u noe.. offer the joss sticks n burn paper money... it ended like ard 3 am... then we went home... but my siblings n I did not slp.. .cause its a tradition that the later the children slps, the longer their parents would live... however, in the end, i fell aslp at 0445h in the morning...

The day itself:
Today was quite unevenful... cause slept late n work up late...actually woke up at ard noon... then my family n I went to a temple to pray for the family's well-being in this new year... yea... then went to my grandmother's house(mum's side)... stayed there since the afternoon... the moment i reached i greeted all my relatives n then went on to watch wadever's thats on the television... then i also ate all the New Year goodies thats on the tables... omg.. i eat n eat n eat n eat... well.. i suppose i need the weight... but i would prefer them to be gained in terms of muscles rather than fats... i also received blessings from my relatives as they pass me a red packet... most wishing me good luck in the New Year as well as best wishes in my studies... nth much was done or had happened...

then now here i m typing this entry... its kinda tiring because of slping 'early' this morning... going to bath n slp soon... talking abt my studies... the 'O' Level results are going to be released on the 28th of Febuary... thats wad i heard from my teachers...

Stupid Streptococcus...

Sigh... ganna infected by stupid streptococcus... for those who dunno wad that is... it is a bacteria that causes sore throat... get the idea??

I believe i got this stupid bacteria on friday morning... if not thursday... dunno y or how though... perhaps its the dusty environment in innova... or maybe its the weather... sigh... although my lymphocytes n phagocytes r working 24/7, i suppose they juz got through the defence line... nvm... then i went for NPCC on friday afternoon... then got angry n shouted at ppl.... i suppose that makes it worse.... well.. lets side track a little to wad happened...

The sec 1s were basically quite lovely ppl... got like 32 cadets... small but increasing... well.. juz that they haf been reminded to move fast for weeks... n many times on that day... so i expect them to move at reasonable speed... but it seems they r strolling.. .then i thought... well... they r sec 1s... then when in the classroom.. they r like imitating the ncos... then i was angered.. i thought... this is a good time to teach them basic manners n respect... so i gathered them... quietened them down.. .spoke seriously abt 'mutual respect'... of course ppl still treat me like a 'kuku'... but i juz hope that the msg got through... then they r made to form a circle... 5 cent 10 cent(boy girl boy girl)... oh well... the slow movement... made me angry again... then i still controlled... until this sec 1 boy.. .who refused to move... or at least.. smile n laugh at the ncos when he is told to move... well... that does it.. .it broke through my tolerance level n i shouted 'MOVE'... he stared at me... then moved... but in the process... i think i frightened the other sec 1s... sry abt that... but can't be helped.. .dun want ppl who dun take instructions seriously...

Ok.. back to the day.... well.. after the shout... was coughing like mad... managed to keep it down a little... then until the mtg.. at the end of the day... was coughing every now n then... sigh... then thats friday... dun wanna bore u with the details of the mtgs... then for saturday... i stayed at home the whole day nursing my throat... partly cause parents dun let me go out... actually wanna meet wei jie n zt they all for pool... sry guys... its not exactly my fault... thats how my saturday go by... bored like mad... but hindered by streptococcus... then sunday came... went for qi gong(family activity) in the morning... but still have not fully recovered yet... still coughing... n bad throat... then spent my afternoon playing game n finishing up my tutorials... then watched tv... now online typing this...

Sry for long post but lots of things to say.. so ya... hehe...
