Happy Teacher's Day

Today was quite short.
Lessons-wise, its the last day of school!

All the funny stuff happens after school.
In the studio, nothing much going on 'cos about half the people in the hall doing teacher's day rehearsal.

Went to mac lab for general meeting.
Listening to songs through my ipod on the mac WHEN Lin De had to accidently pull my ipod wire instead of the keyboard wire.

*Pause*

Ok this time i really lost my cool and sweared.
ALL MY iPOD SONGS WERE GONE

"Lin De WTF did you just do!?"

Ok i managed to get over it somehow when the fact that it was still usable even after that little episode relieved me.
Warranty expiry date: 1/8/07

Well all i can say is PRAISE GOD!

Later Manfred wanted to use remote desktop to check what the juniors were doing.
When we couldn't crack the code, Ervin came and typed it.
Ok so later he closed it.
Then i tried without blinking or thinking.

*Pause*

*WT....*
Ok somehow i managed to crack it.
And we were all laughing 'cos it was like some sudden shock.

Manfred and Lin De were desperate to know the password from me.
Ervin just LOL'ed.


Tomorrow is going to be a full day of celebrations i guess.

And i'm going to be REALLY busy tomorrow.

First have to reach school early setup in GO.
Doing dedications for teachers O.O
Songs all from my library muwahahha.
Ok no metal and techno allowed.

So i just hope i'll be able to do a good job.
No script, no pre-recording.
Oh well, as Andrew would have said, "Aiya I'm doing impromtu!"

Blind Typing

Ok i'm typing this whole post while not looking at anything. Soif it screws up it ain't my fault!
But of course even if it is perfect, you couldn't tell a diff anyway.
Yz and I have just invented a few ways to train to be an accountant/clerk/typist.
This is definitely hot stuff to train.

Also typing skrawkcab is another gay thing to do.
Try to decipher haha!
Hmmmm....

Ok that's about.

Oh yeah, there's nothing new.
I'm being sacrastic. Haha.

Faith?

God, I need some self-discipline in my life.
Its 3 weeks to Final-Years and my revision well?
Its not even up and going yet.

The pace the others are building scares me.
6 A1s, 5 A1s, 4 A1s.
I wouldn't say envy, admiralty would be a better word.

Frankly i've had second thoughts about my life as a Christian.
Is it all worth it when in the end everyone still wounds up getting MUCH better results.

A lil' more reasoning would come to the conclusion that I need to spend the rest of my time outside church activities STUDYING.
With this i guess it makes much more sense.

Its about time to get up and put that gear to full throttle.
There's not much time left.
But in God I trust. Still.
Mrs Tan PMS'ing. Guess she really can't stand people who hand up HW late.
Ed Yong chionging temperature.

Speaking of temperature. Somehow or another, with the sudden arrival of two special guests in our school has the temperature going up even if it was freezing in the morning.
Manfred dosen't need alcohol to get high in the morning now.
Yeo PP's niece and one brit blonde in 3-8.
Somehow there's many passerbys around that class today.
HAHA

Arctic Monkeys are chillin' good.
Today went to buy bamboo poles for camp.

Air refresher too lol.
Dribbled in tracking room with socca' ball.
Ervin hum then ask us go outside.
Lol.
Tried the milk trick again.
All we got were 2 packets of yogurt.
Oh well.
Better fix that before camp.

That's about a week away.

Its been a week since i've blogged hahaha.
Somehow i just can't get down with the time to blog.
Maybe i just miss it sometimes haha.
Thanks to avid readers like Peck Hui[Honourable mention siah lah] who keep my blog alive while i'm away haha.

Had 2 bowls of laksa on satuday.
Actually it was one and a half.
Katong laksa seh! Don't play play!
Shioking sia with two spoons of chilli sauce.
It was more than that thanks to Colby and Davin.
But it wasn't hot, seriously.
ITS SHIOK

And as Davin missed the cockroach with his stamping feet, i back-swept it towards Bao Juan and Joan.
I was rewarded with a pair of shrill screams.
Slammed a hi-five with Harvee in the air.


Today was flag day.
Or supposedly it was.
I reached C.K. Tangs 1 hour later than scheduled.
So went to meet Darryn and we went to collect money until about 1pm.
I must say today's crowd wasn't that appeasing compared to the crowd last saturday.
Many people were unwilling to give.
However, those that did, gave rather generously.

So went to Cineleisure to eat.
Met Sunny, Ala, Kai Sheng, John and Leonard there.
Met up with Perry, Shawn, Box, Khee Ern, Gideon, Darren, Sei Yee and decided to go Suntec for a movie.
Well i thought there was a GV there.
So we took the train.
While walking up to the bridge to Suntec, Jun Hui joined us.
Khee Ern and me were walking faster than the rest.
So we were walking near to the end of the exhibition tower when we realized no one was behind us!
Oh and we were playing a game along the way, naming shops as we walked.

We reached the cinema.
And to our sheer amazement, it wasn't GV, it was Eng Wah.
Ok i admit i have a bad memory.
So we sat around and finally decided to watch License to Wed.

I must say its really a good movie.
Robin Williams proved yet again that his antics were more than enough to get the crowd laughing.
And that little boy kind of cute in a humourous way.
Minister-in-training haha!
Its one real romance comedy that does really make you think twice about getting into a relationship.
Plot-wise, it isn't really that good, honestly.
Theme-wise, it was great.
I liked the Jamacian and JC joke the best!

Rating?
I would say: 4/5 stars.

So then we chionged off to return the cans and went to eat at Taco Bell at Shaws.
Darren, Gideon and Sei Yee went off first.
So left Perry, Darryn, Khee Ern, Box, Shawn and me.
And we were talking about Grad Night, past, present, future.
Also a whole lot of other bullshit.
And Perry is now obsessed with wanting to watch Hairspray.
Through this flag day somehow i've finally managed to find a bond with my 3-4 mates.
Yep, it was a fruitful expedition.


So now might be planning for a shooting outing with the artsy people in the cell group as suggested by Jonathan.
Maybe during the hols, and definitely after Chinese O's.
And i realised one thing about the importance of framing your videos and pictures while looking at the mirror while in the bathroom.

Don't force to people to see what they can't see. Make them see what they thought they couldn't see.

300TH POST

Whew! Its my 300th post already!
Time really flies when you have a blog haha.

On another note i've haven't watched 300 yet thought i have the movie already.

Ok so anyway i just did this quiz from a link at Xing Yu's blog.
Interesting stuff but sadly i think its very hard to tell if its correct.
Anyway her goes:











YOUR REPORT CARD:
CategoryGrade
LoveC
Friends and FamilyA+
BodyB
MindA+
Finance / CareerB
Your Life's Average Grade: A
'What is your Life Grade?' at QuizGalaxy.com



Yep and i must reiterate that its not ACCURATE.

Went for service on sat AND sun.
Haha love Joyce Meyer.
She's really, really good.

I mean her messages are personal, yet touching and able to reach out to many people at the same time.
It gives people the feeling that they can somehow be in her shoes.
I think that's 'cos her analogies are pretty good.
Her statements as well.

If there's two things i've learnt its:
1) Live in today! Don't waste 'today' by worrying about tomorrow.
2) A good measure of Love is how you treat people that are not important to you

Yep and cg bbq on friday was mad!
The fire is very very very hot.
One whole box of fire starters was used!
That was maddening! Really huge bonfire was started instead of some lukewarm bbq fire. Check out the dancing flames:

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Haha that was one hell of a bbq.
And i must take off specs to take pictures!
Reflective index of my glasses causes internal reflection back to the camera thus my eyes become much like an Angel's.
Pure light. LOL.

Resolved the friendster bug already.
"Saviour of the soul" huh.
I guess in a way its much better if half the world spent lesser time on friendster and more time on more fruitful things instead.
Somehow i didn't feel total hatred for this person who created this bug.
Frankly i was just real irritated.

Benny and Jun Yong came back to school today.
Haha for some reason Benny was able to unite the 2-5 people at one table with his grand entrance.
I think he's matured in his thoughts much more than before, in that sense its good but i pray that he won't go down the wrong path again.

Well as for Jun Yong haven't seen him much since this morning.
Still giving me the looks everytime he sees me.
Well I don't blame him, not anyone at all.
Its been quite some time since then.
I'd never quite forget that incident, but i've decided to let it go.
I don't know how you feel but i guess a relationship won't work unless both parties agree to it.
How i'd wish it were like the past.
But no, All i can say is, are you willing to start over?

Played soccer outside studio and Joshua made a personal statement with the exit sign.
Now its dangling in mid air with one of its poles de-attached from it.

Today tilt the machine again and 6 bottles of choco milk haha.
Gotta stop that.

I passed NAPFA with two hours of sleep!
Praise God!

I think i'm becoming a coffee addict.

Watched Shaun of the Dead in the studio today.
One hilarious movie.

I think i'm out of brain juice to blog about anything else.

Oh yeah during today's presentation WHICH I SLAVED THROUGHOUT the ENTIRE MORNING, well we didn't finish it in time haha.

881

Ok short post 'cos its about 3.45am in the morning.
Finished physics project around 3.20am.

Just had to make a short note in my blog haha.

881 was great. Caught it last friday.
Royston Tan had some great framing techniques.
I especially liked the framing technique he used where the guy went to sell his chicken.
I thought that part was kind of touching.

Overall i would say it is a VERY GOOD LOCAL film.
And the theme is well built in a very singaporean way.
Imagine the look on my face when i saw old people in the cinema getting up to leave after the movie ended!
Haha no i wasn't that surprised actually.

The movie release is just right, a week before the real seventh lunar month.(About there lah.)
There are sure alot of great films to catch this month but i would strongly recommend 881 as one of the MUST-CATCH movies.

Verdict? 5 out of 5 stars.

Some little extracts from my audio sensory device.

"You're Virgo?"
"No Libra, that's why I always say the correct thing!"

Haha that's true.

"You don't have the Poly face, I think you have the JC face. People also say i have the JC face."
"Oh. But can have the JC face but got the Poly heart."
"Sure anot? Poly people don't wash their hands before they eat."


"You'll don't know what is happening don't judge ok. Just like how you don't judge Sun."
"What has Sun got to do with all this?"


"Aye auntie, wo yao transfer cell group liao."
"Really ah. Why? Lao le ah."


"The cowboy ah i thought is wave the flag and shout 'wooowoooowooo' but then ah its *Chicok chicok chicok Piang! Piang! Piang!* "


"Then you kage bunshin lah."
"Huh what kage bunshin?"

Happy Birthday Singapore!

Wow our nation's already 42 years old!
Haha I'm at least older than a quarter of her already.
About one-third haha.

Went out to celebrate my grandma's birthday today.
Had some vegetarian food at thompson area, sin ming there.
Long time since i've seen all my cousins(mother's side) gathered as one again.

And went out shopping later and bought a new pair of shoes.
Yay!
Wanted to use the shopping vouchers my ex-cell group gave me for my birthday haha.
Would have gotten 2 new pairs if not for the latter, which didn't have an approriate size for me because it was out of stock for that size.
Anyway still happy :D

National Day Celebration

I didn't really feel like posting haha.
Just felt very tired and everything in this past week.


Today's national day celebration was quite short(:
Marching by UGs.
Wushu performance.
Modern Dancers dancing.
CHMA Finalists singing.
And ICE CREAM!

Went Darryn house after that, but surprisingly never pool'ed lol.


Punk rock week with Busted and Blink-182 mass spamming on my playlist.

Its like some time since i've heard Busted's album A Present For Everyone.

I'm not going to be Hua Peng and post videos on my blog, no offence haha.

But my blog can't really view a copied youtube video with right dimensions anyway.
But if you have time, and you really dig FallOut Boy, McFly, Sum 41 or (for some reason)Simple Plan, Busted and Blink-182 are two additional bands to add to your punk rock library collection.

Some cool stuff to find out morea bout yourself, well if you really need it that is.
Here goes!

http://noracom.net/eng/fortune/color_cheki1.php

So i tried it and here's the list for my personality. I wonder if it could be identified by you? Haha


You are Blue Tiger, whose ways of talking is very noble and have a rock-steady stance.
This may make other people feel you are a difficult person to get to know.
But you can make peaceful personal relationships with anyone, and are a person of good balance.
You associate people with broad mind.
But at the same time, you are making your own judgment on personal criticism.
You are very diplomatic person.
You don't notice nicety in people, and tend to reason personal relationships with theory.
You don't fear having relationships with others, and can have relationship with anyone.
You are a very popular person.
But you sometimes worry about whether a person you are going out with is really in love with you.
You can plan things with extreme preciseness, and can act as planned by looking ahead of the times.
Though, you sometimes feel you want to be more adventurous.
You think positively on everything.
You don't get things down on you.
And even if you do get down, you can recover from that situation fast.
You are very fair.
You can be an ideal boss.
You would be endeared by those who are strong-minded.

I've been noticing how i always fail to post from mid-week onwards.

Another busy week passes by.
Ok this week was quite slack, i was slacking a lot for the most of this week.

Gan Qing Gu Xiang on friday was quite boring but i thought the english drama was good.

And Happy Birthday to Kah Koon(4/8/07)!

Sat went for Festival Of Praise at Singapore Indoor Stadium.
The best ever!
The whole mood and setting was just great.
Managed to catch the LAST SHUTTLE BUS, TRAIN and PUBLIC BUS on the way home.

Haha Thank God for that.
Managed to catch the last train with Kah Koon, Ivan, Tawan and Clement on Friday as well.

Well, heck sure it couldn't have been coincidence.

There's school tomorrow but its going to be a fantastic week with all the holidays lining up.
Finally, time to catch up on my sleep.

On a personal note, someone tell me what love is.

Happy Birthday to Ham,
Happy Birthday to Ham,
Happy Birthday to Marcus,
You're finally 11 now.

Today's assembly was damn own.
The musicians were really good.

Wrecking havoc in studio again.
Left around 4.40 with Manfred.
He was going tuition and i was going BS at Plaza Sing.

Came home and went to AMK hub with my family to celebrate my brother's birthday.
Fish & Co.
Yummy stuff and fills easily 'cos of the butter, cheese and fried skin that my new york fish & chips had.
Not cheap though.
