I just clocked 3.5 hours of L4D today. Like as if my exams are over. My Garena's "girlpikachu" cause my brother's "girlavenged" and I'm mocking him. Why girl? Cause he says if you're a girl, its no longer sinful to be noob at gaming. The rest of the players will treat you nicely. Cheapskate right. HAHAHA - opps I'm not sure if I'm supposed to mention this. (But my brother doesn't read my blog so heck) OH YEAH and I saw Michael Jackson on L4D today, his room's always full I hate it. Was secretly hoping I could get into the room and shoot a few shots at him. For fun. No offense to the fans.

Oh yeah you know you haven't heard me mention. That day I went out to Clarke Quay to mug with Jolene and we went to Dhoby Ghaut to have dinner, we saw like goddamnedmany groups of JC students happily bouncing away and celebrating the end of their CTs, which got me quite pissed. Plus I was very hungry then (8pm plus) and I really really felt like shooting them down. L4D style. Kidding. I just kinda felt like Seung-hui Cho when I said that. Creepy. I take it back. HAHAHA

I can't stand the hype - everyone's going gaga after their CTs. Yes, I will too after mine's done. So I guess I'm just jealous. Oh yeah I'm taking things easy from now, syllabus's not going to be complete before I go for the examinations (especially chemistry/econs) but right now I'll just try hard and rest well. I'll pray to guanyin niangniang before my exams and hopefully things turn out well :) GYNN blessed me for the final-years last year. I'm thankful. I'm soooo a believer. No sarcasm. Yeah, I'll delete my previous post cause it's so-uber whiny I can't take it anymore. Bet you guys can't stand it as well.

I'm over-reacting. I wish the MYEs could finish as soon as possible so I'll stop whining about my slow progress on my blog, but never mind I'm taking it slowly. Think I'm planning to skip Atomic Structure and Ionic Equilibrium for Chemistry, cause the notes are real thick and I don't wish to spend another 2 days on each of the chapters.

Lots of things I need to sort out after the MYEs, I can't wait. Oh yeah, doesn't a kindergarten outing sound so cool? I mean like most of us have probably lost contact with every single one else. I'm still in contact with one. And a few weeks ago I saw my friend (on facebook) and he had a kindergarten outing back in their kindergarten I was so jealous. Going to plan one. I hope. After MYEs/CTs whatever you like to call them. :) Exciting much?

Plan report, epic fail. So I slept after I blogged yesterday (no I actually played Zenonia on my iPod touch for an hour) but anyway I slept early cause I set my alarm at 7am and wanted to wake up for a morning run. Plan epic fail. I ended up waking at 12.30, read a page of chemistry and went out for lunch with my (closer) relatives. Yes, that was like 12hours of sleep. Dhoby Ghaut, I felt so cold (probably cause after Pizza Hut my aunt and mother bought 2 bowls of $10eac dessert and didn't like them, no one else wanted them so I had to finish it up for them. Not worth the money. Ice Monster or whatever. But for a while there I thought I kena-ed H1N1 but I wasn't worried cause nobody really cares lah, my mum thinks a one week holiday at Aloha's perfect. If she could bring in her HK drama serial she borrowed.

Yeah whatever screw my plan, I'm going to play some L4D now.

Photo issues, I thought my bandwidth exceeded again again, which was scary. Bad experience, uploading everything again. And I've did that like about 5 times. All the bandwidth eaters. I have like... 6 image hosting accounts to be able to deal with bandwidth problems. The problem's global. Gizmodo, blogs, sites are all having image problems, so that's good news. Yeah and meanwhile my font shall be in grey for benefit of easy reading.

 I can't stop whining about it. SEE HERE? Let's all fail CTs together. :)

I installed Left4dead on my Mac-Windows 2 days ago and have been hooked on to it even though I'm noobcake at it. I'm still at Thermodynamics, the note's lying in front of my computer, in an attempt to make myself feel less guilty. Lost motivation to study again, its been like on and off (mostly off) the past few weeks, only time I experienced some good motivation was last friday.

Spent my entire day on L4D and designing a card cover for VJ Wushu handover coming thursday. Really lost touch with Adobe Photoshop, I took like, 5 hours to do it. Okay, with some lots of random surfing around the internet (yeah, I'm very unfocused). Bad right, 5 hours. And the result's not even close to what I've pictured before designing - lack of photos and everything else. Bad experience, I hardly knew what I was doing and in the end cropped a few photos to put together. Rusty.

And it's like I don't know why I'm supposed to do my part for PW but I get a migraine looking at the GPP, I'm totally not looking forward to it. Seriously I miss working on project work with the Hs, it was always so efficient, so simple, so fast. I was one of the people doing the least work then, but now... Don't even want to talk about it.



Oh yeah and after my brother mentioned it I realised. I'm probably taking everything so easily right now cause I heard news that the 1 week extension of the June holidays due to the H1N1 influenza might actually happen. I'm betting all my hopes on that, seriously, I have less than a week to... complete physics, get started (and complete!?) econs and chemistry - GP, maybe - and THEN carry on to do revision and practice for the various subjects. Screw much? Yes, very. I would literally jump for joy if the one week's approved. I swear. Watch me.

Realised my thermodynamics lecture notes are still incomplete. Lots of setbacks while studying, everytime I meet one I tell myself I'll take a break from studying and get back to it later on. I've been at thermodynamics ever since... 8th of June. Zillion days and I cannot even get to complete a chapter. It's the 3rd break this day, I tried to keep it within a half-hour but failed. Twice. I timed and realised each of my break took an average of 2 hours. Epic fail.

An hour ago I casually commented to my mum that I might not do well (fail) for my mid-years and somehow she exploded on my statement. Quite scary, I thought she didn't already have high expectations for me given my brother almost retained his J1 last year. She scolded me, that I haven't been focused on work ever since I came into VJ, shouted at me for going out almost everyday ever since the June holidays commenced. Having buffet yesterday even when she's trying to scrimp and save money for the family, that she'll be unemployed soon and yet I'm not making an effort to save money. It got me kind of guilty. But no, it's just plain guilt. I still don't have the motivation to study. It's like I never had mid-years ever since secondary school, so it's probably not driven into me.

Lots of birthday stuff this week, spent Saturday till today celebrating different birthdays and such. Cool stuff though, I'm always enjoying birthday celebrations, except when it's mine. The awkwardness. But it's good experience, like when your friends crash your house and such. My pocket money's currently standing at negative $97.90, a record breaking one. I'm going for Sakae buffet tomorrow so that's another stab.

Swear I'm going to start saving money when school reopens, I'm going to visit the beehoon auntie like twice everyday.

TEEHEE anyway
happy birthday to Liqin,
happy birthday to Weeliang Weiliang,
happy birthday to Robin and
happy birthday to Zhenzhou tomorrow :)

No hope, no motivation, no time. Given up on studying. At least temporarily. It's like I could do so many better things with my life than to study, get out and chill with friends etc. I have a feeling I'm enjoying my holiday way too much. I look at those people in poly and it's like studying's completely out of their life, it's so surreal. I wish I was like them.

Oh yeah random but I'm feeling really happy right now cause my dad brought home like 10 durians (at least) from Malaysia from his business pal's durian farm. No, my dad does business, he does not sell durians. Just so happen that the dude's got a durian farm and he got us the best durians in his farm. And yesterday my mum brought home 4 packets of durian. She made a durian cake (not Emicakes standard but quite good for first attempt) and also durian sago. My brother says it sucks but I think it's damn good. Almost so much I felt the urge to use "fucking" for it.

And also whine a bit - yeah I realised at the end of every post I don't whine at least one I will die - I've got an ulcer on my lip. And a pimple on my pits. Super annoying. It's like I cannot even scratch my armpit properly can. Don't imagine. I suppose it's quite disturbing. And talking about armpits, I've recently heard 2 different people say that guys should shave armpit hair. Eh that's damn gay lah, like imagine a guy without pit hairs? Not seh. It's not me, it's them right?

CLIC Camp 09, Barney Bolong Bananas.




It was a blast. Not the usual kind of camp, it was in NUS school so we had proper beds to sleep on, even a single bedroom for each person. Good toilet facilities with warm water, water dispensers, super market, a cafe and vending machines. But seriously one hell of an experience. Super glad I could go, cause it's CLIC [Connecting Leaders In Camp] where CCA leaders are specially handpicked to attend, so it's usually captains or presidents of CCAs. EXCO results for Wushu's not out yet, but I ran for Treasurer/Secretary only (meaning there's also captain and vice-captain) but seniors got me and Shi Jie (captain-to-be) to attend the camp. Maybe it's because like 3 or 4 people ran for vice-captain and 2 for captain, while I was the only one to run for treasurer/secretary. But still, thank god for that chance man, it was great!

Was mascot for my group, which is also why you're probably wondering why I posted up the first photo when I wasn't present. Looked heckin ridiculous but had real fun. I don't know how many times I said this already but great camp seriously. There were a hell lot of interesting activities, and one part really cool about it was that the activities are all really fun, but looking back and reflecting you realise each activity had a special purpose or message which really hit me, really good. And there was this Counter-Strike-like game we played. Using the NUS school compounds, we had a war. It was like paint-ball gunplay, just much cooler. The guns worked on laser, you had 7 lives, and a variety of guns. Shotguns, M16 rifles, sniper guns and such, different guns with different characteristics, range and weight. Seriously it was the coolest game I've ever played in a camp. SHIT I wanna try it again!


Anyway here's thanks to all from group 2, thanks to every single one of you, camp wouldn't be this good without you all. Much love much love :)

Oh yeah, and a little whine: I'm pretty scared I will screw up my mid-years. I'm stuck on this game on my iPod Touch called "Zenonia" is US$5.99, I think it's worth the money. Okay it looks a little lame, it's kind-of like Maplestory, a character class (yes, an RPG), an adventure, killing monsters and such. But it has a better story line, and it's something new. It's really fun, I'm pretty much hooked on it right now. Yeah, some day I scan my June calendar for you, you'll get a shock at how little time I had in the holidays. But it's okay, I'm having a hell lot of fun :). Ughh, should go mug now.

Deleted and drafted the previous post. It's always like that, that temporary fiery over something which boils my blood so badly. Thank god, I'm over it. I've forgiven, and I really hope things get better this time. I hope it's not going to be like the last time when I've forgiven and I found out I was wrong again, after all.

Anyway have been having really little sleep this week, like waking up at 7am (or earlier) and coming home at 11plus. Tired. Extremely. I've pretty much a clash of events every single day, do this, next thing go there do that, it's like I'm supposed to be at 2 places at once. Sometimes even 3. Crazy, I so need to study, but where's the time gone to?

Read the previous post before this.

Here's an update:
Morning jog, pretty much successful! Managed to wake up after a mere 4 hours of sleep the previous night (damn! Facebook!) at 6.30am. Changed, ate a light breakfast and started at 7am. Eventually I didn't use the $5 and my spectacles cause my spectacles were kind of bobbing up and down my head (which gets annoying) while I run so I gave up on that. Self-reflection, not really. Calmness: I couldn't jog till a part of Singapore which had no civilisation; it's impossible, but some part of the time the surroundings did get calm. Running straight ahead in one direction: epic fail, didn't want to run on the noisy roads and such. Getting lost: maybe. You know, I ran from Serangoon to Kovan, backtracked a little and ran into the nearest forest, jungle? Forest. I was pretty much rural... it's around Maris Stella. But I was running and running and for a moment I thought I was lost cause I found myself between a rather-desolate military headquarter surrounded by tall fences and barbed wire, and on the other side a cemetery. Sounds creepy, but not so cause it's near Maris Stella and I've seen the cemetery before. But just at that moment I thought I was lost cause the turn was supposed to lead to an open road but it didn't.

Anyway the jog wasn't too bad, I jogged for 15 minutes and gave up halfway though, I wanted to take in the surroundings so I stopped jogging. The cemetery jog was good, a pity I was only jogging around the circumference of it. Would love to jog in there: serene, calm, peaceful; the lush greenery, but I not exactly sure if it's appropriate.

Took the circle line from Bartley back to Serangoon. My first time; there isn't too much a difference from the NE line, the MRT carriage looked almost exactly the same, just shorter. The station though, looked a little more... "technologic". Seriously, everytime a new development in Singapore comes out, it looks a little more like the sci-fi alien spacehub you see in movies. Swear we're going to look like them someday.

And to the second part of the plan: being energetic to do work for the rest of the morning/afternoon. Hope its successful, really. When I came back from the jog my mum told me I'll fall asleep later on. NO WAY! Right? :)
