haha late night random stuff. chatting with lg and peishan, but chanced upon this. see if u can spot the puns =)
My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned because I couldn't concentrate.
Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the axe.
After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it.
The job was only so-so anyhow.
Next I tried working in a muffler factory, but that was exhausting.
I wanted to be a barber, but I just couldn't cut it.
I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn't cut the mustard.
My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn't note worthy.
I studied a long time to become a doctor,
chanel handbags but I didn't have any patience.
Next was a job in a shoe factory; I tried, but I just didn't fit in.
I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income.
I thought about becoming a witch, so I tried that for a spell.
I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.
My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit, because it was always the same old grind.
After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a historian, until I realized there was no future in it.
i thought it was done pretty well haha.

haha today's been quite fun! went with wenjie peishan and cheejia to grand cathay to catch step up. our timing couldnt have been more accurate >.<. cj and i took >5 min to finally meet up (like play hide and seek at the mrt/ps liddat lol) and meet wj and ps who were waiting. and the moment we found our seats and sat down the show started. as in all the ads ended and the movie began la haha. wad accuracy.
step up is a really gd movie! it has the teenager movie portion with all those love and break-ups, but with a really nice element of an arts school behind it. the songs and dances are just awesome! you could spend money to watch it again in the cinema, cos it's not the plot we are focusing on, it's really the cool dances and actions haha. the male and female leads can really dance la.
chanel handbags tyler and nora. there are also some parts in the show i esp liked a lot. like the dance in the sunset, absolutely dazzling. the dance during the party too =) with the band and stuff.
ok i just realised how bad a reviewer i am. bad movies dont critic enough, gd movies dont praise enough too. i should just give up =.= just know that u should watch it for the music and dances.
after that went to clarke quay there. wanted to go settler's cafe (by wenjie's recommendation in his blog haha) for lunch but it wasnt open yet. so went nearby to eat laksa. lol we are a confusing bunch la. the way we order confuse the auntie so much she came to our table after we ordered to reconfirm.
our version of the order:
"auntie, 4 laksa. 3 $2 one, among the 3, 2 want yellow mee, 1 want bee hoon. then the 4th one is $3 one, yellow mee."
her version of the order:
"ah so u all want 3 with yellow mee, 2 small 1 big, and 1 small with bee hoon?"
looks like we shouldnt even attempt to work in a hawker centre/kopitiam. our employer will go crazy when we repeat the customer's orders.
ya back to settler's cafe. wensheu joined us at 2 when it opened. haha it's a fun place! lots of card/board games to play, and free flow of drinks (students promotion only la). but seriously that free flow of drinks got me going to the toilet countless times la. i think ah if they charged 10 cents for each visit of the toilet, they would have earned 50% more than what they are earning now la. seriously.
tried a couple of games. wanted to start off with a easy/need no thinking game. and we really got a super brainless one o.O "ugly ugly ugly!" basically just each take turns to flip cards and say that dumb phrase when u get 3 of a kind. wahaha, chao brainless.
then went on to some cartagena. hmm that was quite fun, trying to move ur men to the end of the road onto the ship by using cards, and being able to retreat and gain more cards. wenjie chao lame la... meng collect cards... like up to 10 liddat >.< but i guess the strategy worked. cos he won lol.
next was zombies... this game was quite sian. but wenjie and wensheu were chao evil la, when i kenna dead end, they spam those cards that say place 10 zombies anywhere u like and just block me off. but thankfully they got sian of the game and i so called won with 21 zombies slayed. (to officially win is 25) the helipad is seriously no need to think one la. so far down the stack of maps b4 u finally reach the helipad.
lastly played munchkins. haha this was fun. supposed to mimic an rpg game, with all the headgear, armor, footgear, class, race, lvl gaining and treasures. im so targeted can. i think i got the most no. of curses on me de la. u all chao evil! hehe. wenjie and wensheu's allying chao qiang. cos both elf, have an ability to gain a lvl when u help someone defeat a monster, so they were like helping each other continuously and gaining lvls together la haha.
haha fun fun. looking forward to going there again. ps and i like already got a list of wad to play next time le lol.
p.s. im waiting for cj to come online with the pix. i must show this giant candy floss looking PINK christmas tree outside cathay. it's seriously pink can o.O

omg i realised i totally daoed diao hcco interaction! ah the times when ur focus is all on ocip lol. but this should be honeymoon period... hmk and school will start to push back into ur life and ur focus, and ocip will be diminished to nothingness... no i dont want that to happen!
the previous post was damn crappy anyway. any idiot will be able to tell i just want to use it as my stepping stone to upload my first pic >.< but the outing wasnt crappy k. just my horrible description. forgot to add abt the part when we had 11 ppl watching the movie with only 10 tickets! (dunno wad wensi did outside la, just managed to get junquan in rofl. chao shen.) but then again, with that kind of standard of show, pay 10 ppl's share for 11 to watch is more than enough le la. (omg im badmouthing the show again. okok it wasnt that bad la.) but i wonder then where did the extra ticket's money went if everyone paid? haha the mystery of the disappearing $9.50. omg. see digression back to ocip stuff again. back to hcco interaction. well to admit, i went quite reluctantly, cos i was so tired after the plan touched down like 9+ the night b4!! and i barely slept enough on the plane (considering how me gwen wensi lg and kaiern chatted in lg and kaiern's room till 5+ am.) but it turned out to be quite fun la haha. had quite a number of schools coming, like tchs,
louis vuitton handbags nygh, rv, vs, cchs, st nicks, cat high (i tink thats all?) me, si hui, sinhwee were grp leaders of group 7. haha quite a quiet grp during icebreakers (i was quite scared they will sian diao with me such a sian grp leader), but they turned out to be chao enthu and fun from the moment we got our own cheer! i guess, morale boosting does wonders... thanks to having sinhwee around to get them high and play the games with enthu-ness and cheer each other on! he raised the spirits by a lot i guess. xuanping joined us in the afternoon after si hui left for guzheng lessons. had 5 game stations haha. i think the CO put in quite a lot of effort. had a murder mystery, eating/drinking related game, some marker write cheng yu + use cardboard to cross "river", couple's ball, blindfolded obstacle course. and of cos the traditional mass games we never fail to not have... water bombs!! (though i didnt play that one, didnt have change of clothes haha. but im sure they had loads of fun.) after that we 3 grp leaders went al-ahzar for dinner. tried the al-ahzar special that xuanping kept recommending. it's zohhhhhmyyyyygodddd can! spicy daooooooooooo. i eat like 3 mouthfuls and start spamming my milo dino, until i realise im very wasting my milo. then i took out my bottle and continued spamming water. the sambal chilli is duooo daoo. seriously a lot la. lemme describe the dish like how he did to me to make me so eager to try it. "half the plate is butter rice, with mutton chunks. the other half is huge sambal prawns, big and juicy and so tender. and they spamm with with tons of sambal chilli for u to scoop with the keropok which is laden all over the plate (pu1 man3 le keropok)" wahaha. im sure u also wanna try it out after the description la... and mind u, it's really the case loh! not exaggarating. just a bit ex though, and warning warning, u must be able to take chilli real well. or end up spamming water like me >.<

wahaha. now that ocip ppl take their cams when they go out, i can finally have pix on my blog le!! though it's kouped from peishan de lol.
a bit late, but today had co, so couldnt blog.
anyway, ytd we had our first post-ocip outing! a GRAND total of 12 ppl came lol (not niaoing k, yuntian! lol). yuntian junquan jiawei xinwei kimmin wensi algy jonathan yushan peishan xinyi and i went. quite fun la haha, going to chinatown and pigging out at maxwell market. let's see wad we all ordered... chicken rice (yuntian and junquan both bought the same thing rofl), curry mixed rice (me and jiawei bought), dumpling + fishball noodles (xinwei), rojak (kimmin), carrot cake (junquan bought for the table), char siew chee cheong fun (yuntian bought for the table), and drinks, just for our table! *sorry i dunno wad the other table bought lol* i know wensi ate carrot cake, cos i kouped some lol.
anyway, went for an impromptu movie outing at ps. jiawei left early cos he had cousin's wedding. lol we can plan stuff real fast (same for pre-ocip, when we finished so many things in such a short time. it was like 11th nov the last meeting that we got our songs, polo tees, dance, radio, lesson plans etcetc settled. super efficient can lol). so looking at the movies, we decided on casino royale.
well after the show... i dunno wad to say also. it wasnt TERRIBLE (like silent hill), but it wasnt good at all either. so-so loh. quite crappy if u dont get the plot. but a little better for guys i suppose >.< the girls... ke lian a bit lol. cos the male lead is kinda... average looking. rofl. okok looks aside, i think the show needs more revealing loh. totally couldnt follow up. then had a stupid-crappy-sucky looking ending at the beach that wasnt really an ending. followed by a totally abrupt no-link clueless blank non-ending like ending. ok in short the whole show is kinda detached.
chanel handbags like the eyes on the arms, the torso attached to the toes. okok im being as crappy as the show. and the torturing is sick. lol. (i dunno why im lol-ing. but nvm.) after the show (quite long abt 2 hr+), quite a lot went off back home for dinner, while me algy peishan wensi yushan kimmin went mos burger for dinner. wah chao long never eat at mos burger le haha. regret not taking photos there lol. ate some kakiage rice burger. not bad hmm. and their fries is gd too! wahaha. yum yum. ok lemme prac my photo uploading skills... brace urself ppl. the first photo im going to upload... (ok im a bit slow in terms of blogging technology...)
back row: me, yushan, kimmin, jonathan, algernon, junquan, xinwei
front row: peishan, xinyi, yuntian, wensi
ta-dah! my first pic.
p.s. OMG WAD IRONY. my tv is on next to me and i just saw a casino royale ad. "the best bond movie yet!" - yeah right. most prob cos the others are so old we couldnt really see the quality. oh btw there were tons of james bond old movies on star movies on tv in shanghai. chao old can. almost black and white liao.
p.p.s. this is a super crappy post. sorry >.

yoyoyo ppl! im back wahaha. ocip shanghai roxx like anything can! had loads and loads of fun. super high!!!
didnt bring camera, so i would have disappeared from the photo collection if not of algernon and the girls for putting me in some photos! haha. must learn to become a camera-whore liao rofl. officially a zi-pai beginner! =.=
shanghai was totally... amazing. im missing everyone and everything liao. but at least i did fulfill my 2 wishes in shanghai of going to see the arcade at xin shi jie (new world) everyone was talking about, and to go shu cheng (book city) for a 2nd time. swiped more cds and books muahaha.
i want to go back to the can-more icecream shop! the icecream's special, the place is cool with all the pretty and flowery decorations, and how can i forget the rocking-chairs and swings as replacements for seats? the whole place is just a comfy paradise. *im in heaven*
i miss this colourful building that i think i mentioned to quite some ppl. it took my attention the first night we went out haha. it's just this normal common-looking building that looks no different in the day, but at night,
replica watches wow. shanghai definitely invests on its lights. it's just so colourful. every night the whole city is lit up like a christmas tree, with coloured and neon lights everywhere. and that coluorful building, it changes colour continuously can... chao nice. im so regretting i didnt take a pic of it =((. and mind u, the building is like... 50 storeys high? so can imagine the amount of lights...
i need to get used to all the english signboards now haha. been seeing chinese signboards and road signs so much that i feel weird to be back in singapore :P all the kentucky = ken de ji, pizza hut = bi sheng ke, ajisen = wei qian la mian etcetcetc. and it's kinda weird how the whole city is spammed with kfcs like how we are spammed with macs. and even more weirdly, i hardly see any macs... i wonder why.
i want to have the feeling of never-melting icecream again as well. even though it's night, cold and dark, ice-cream is kinda cool. imagine putting spoonfuls and spoonfuls of milo icecream, or magnum (its only like 3RMB whereby it's almost the same price in SGD back in sg) and it just hardly melts! shuang. that reminds me, i miss the convenience store where we get to buy stuff almost every night. from chips to sweets to meltykisses to milk tea to apple milk to icecream, it was our snack heaven haha. i bet the uncle is sad that we left, brought him so much business can! =))
i miss the food too... xiao long bao, tang bao, tian bu la, KEBAB!!, brazil bbq (notty kia thomas lol), drunken prawns (wah this is ultimate man. jianmin chao qiang. dare to eat the live drunken prawns), wine (haha never drink this frequently back in sg), steamboat etcetc.
other than all the fun, i miss the real project also. i desperately want a pic of our mural design!! it's so chio can. i love it. i miss the kids, esp the preschool ones! they are just SUPPPPPPER cute. esp that cute boy, he just carry his bag and stone in the middle of the square, looking straight forward. the look in his eyes... classic. u will just melt can. u just want to carry him and pinch his cheeks la hahaha. CHAO CUTE DAOOOO. (ok im not a paedophile can. i bet anyone will find the kids cute.) the food we had also... i miss them, but not cos they were nice :P. our breakfasts with the char siew puff, paus, glutinous rice "pau", soya bean drink, and that special fan4 tuan2 we had on the last day. our lunches with the local food the school prepared for us ( i bet team b wont miss theirs :P but team a's was chao nice can. we had FIVE dishes on the last day b4 we left. and 2-3 usually. so nice to us lahhh). our bento dinners with a little variety like sausage, egg, peanut+chicken, prawns (these are the gd ones) and mei cai kou rou (pukable), fish (so many bones till u dont feel like eating), and all the salty side dishes =)
night time was totally shiok too can. all the polar bear/mafia sessions for the first few nights, it's the nicest polar bear ive ever played. and all the ban-luck (though i didnt play), i think all who played had loads of fun too. in fact, u wont believe it, we hardly played cards!! amazing anot. we are too preoccupied with all the other fun! wahahahaha. and the magic tricks! how could i forget! i feel so stupid abt jonathan's colour cube. took me 1.5 days and in the end is reveal to me one. feel like banging the wall. still wanting to solve mr lee's ash trick. totally seh diao can.
i also gonna miss my room mate haha. JIAWEII!!! he's really a nice guy to bunk with haha. quite some stuff to chat abt after we lights out until we fall asleep =)). and that one night with the spooky gui3 ya1 chuang2!! never happened to ppl around me b4, and it was soooo close can. whew. and all the room he keep buying back haha. always share with me. thanks jiawei hehe.
ohh, that reminds me of all the scandals going on muahahaha. ji fun lol. meng niao each other. kenna reminded of the last night when a few of us didnt sleep after playing polar bear and stuff till 2+. in algy's room, with gwen, wensi, algy and kaiern. haha... dunno how we crapped our way till 5+ de loh. i couldnt rmb much of wad we discussed.
angel mortal was funn too! round one, my angel was xinwei and mortal wufan. round 2 angel miss chua and mortal ck. xinwei writes quite regularly and wufan replies really really fast haha. miss chua spams food for me (thank you!) and ck jaaaaz dao. nevertheless, it was fun trying to find out each others mortal and all the blatant... "are you my angel?" "er.... no! why would i be!" when it's so obvious bwahaha.
lastly i miss all the pet phrases i picked up along the trip. die, im a super copycat. meng using them now. mini list below:
wahaha (junquan)
NICE (mao dun)
pissed diao (jonathan)
seh kia (mingren)
shi ____ de loh (gwen/wensi)
notty kia (thomas)
and... the ultimate line(s) we all wont be forgetting so soon... (at least for 1 person :P)

haha i focused too much on the fun aspects le. but that doesnt mean i didnt learn from this trip. but shant dwell that much into those stuff. but seriously, fun as it may seem, u take a lot of learning from it too. thats why i chose the small s and big L, the ocip ppl who participated in this activity should know. there is really a lot of learning to be done, down to the small thing of giving out coloured paper for art lessons.

haha it's 7 hrs more b4 ill be at the airport le. leaving for ocip shanghai! haha. ppl who read my blog, go take a vacation for 10 days. ill be back with a brand new ocip experience! haha. the hainan one was really really fun, and im sure this will be too =)
packing almost done le, but got stuff missing here and there. oops :P sorry but i cant really find some stuff. hope i can make do without them. now left with mental prep, although theres really nth much la. as long as the plane embarks and lands safely for both times, im happy le. the last thing i want is a real-life experience of LOST.
gonna miss my audition, my o2jam, kongkong =.=, dota, and recently wj ph and cj made me dl gunbound. haha pls i not so superficial la, will also miss my comp, my music, my tv, my bed, my kbox sessions. OKOK. will miss family, frens, u guys k? lol.
looking foward to shopping there. hope can buy a lot of nice stuff. and more imptly, got enough spaces to bring them back lol. cos i dont have much winter stuff, so i just spammed clothes. my giant luggage bag is like totally full le lahz. zzz.
ytd had a quite fun artemis outing. class went kap to eat lunch after handing in inr, then went vivocity. hehe it's like really big. but shops not open here and there. gotta wait for the official opening i guess, on 1 dec. but for a nice big shopping paradise like vivo, the arcade a bit the pathetic =.= small and little stuff to play. and worst thing, the bishi bashi machine has broken down! it's like zomgg. an arcade without bishi bashi to play. rofl. ok im not that crazy a fan of bishi bashi.
then bought some funny blue christmas hats at watsons for our fac king and queen, max and yushan! haha. quite a gd choice for the fac king and queen actually. hehe. then went cine to slack till 5+ when the show started. the covenant, been receiving still a number of bad comments abt it, but since our fac already set on it, might as well go take a look loh.
as usual, the arcade spree, some play table soccer, driving, and the rest just stone and watch ppl play DDR lol. then a whole bunch of us went to crowd around yichun playing para para la! haha, but he quite gd lol. then took our (supposedly free, but then had to pay $3 in the end) popcorn and coke b4 we went in for the show.
it is an ok show la. but the development of the plot was really poor. it started off pretty well actually, wad with witch descendants, secret behind the immense power they owned, and even the medieval feeling houses and school. evne the thing with the spider imps and all were a nice addition to the story. so were the love dovey and reflection of american teenage life. BUT the main plot seriously seriously was bad. they made such a nice basement wit hthe stone steps and the covenant's sign carved on the ground, and designed the book of damnation till quite nice, but all underutilised.
i tell u wad was over utilised. the balls and balls of transparent energy. seriously, the "climax" was just like a replay of a street fighter game u can see it a thousand times in the arcade. ryu vs chun li or something.
louis vuitton handbags anything that can spam the ha-dou-ken they did in the show. and the sad corny part of the show... like having powers, but still have to go thru the trudging thru the fire-ablazed house to save the damsel in distress. u know, that kind of drama-mama thing. but i have the admit, the story and the pre-developed part of the plot was seriously good. just that... seriously, i think any other director or whatnot can make a much better show out of it.
went to check out the webby today for fun. and came across the lame game they had that i asked wj cj and ph to play and all 4 of us kenna sianed of it within 30 min (thats why we resorted to gunbound =.=). but anyway, it's pretty dumb haha. i just wanted one member of each bloodline so can unlock the defenses of the inner ring. and i wonder if all 5 bloodlines could combine? but we were missing putnum. only have danvers, garwin, sims and perry. and one EVEN more lame person went to post a vid on the 5 different ways the 5 bloddlines died. following link a little sadist. but if u find cartoon verions are ok, it's actually pretty... stupid hehe.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKQIGquvRF8&mode=related&search=
thats my farewell post le. nth much actually. and nice job, puay hian and wensi, for winning the chubby bunny thing. same for the class who won 100% participation.
p.s. btw i guessed the most useful thing ive learned from the show was how to spell covenant. i used to think it was spelt covanent. lol, wad useful things ive learnt.

haha havent been blogging much cos the whole wk was spent on fri's op. shant say too much abt it la. i THOUGHT i was ok. but then again mebbe not =.= wadeva. it's over le. ive done wad i could. now for inr. sianz, i totally havent started. k have to do later.
anyway ytd went for ocip meeting at ymca, didnt do much la, but thru that ball game, i somehow felt a lot closer to the grp. perhaps is cos everyone's wearing own clothes, so the lack of uniform gives ppl a more comfortable feeling, like u can be informal and stuff or wadeva. so actually im really looking forward to the trip! hahas. the ppl are real nice actually. though our trip is just a little little screwed. cos we still have sooooooooooo many things not done la. ytd some ppl went for a whole series of shopping to get last min items. hopefully i got all mine le... i think? if not tml gg.
after buying stuff went to paradiz centre to play lan. wah seriously serious. i cant count the no. of lan centres around there la. we only spanned abt 2-3 floors, and we already went into... say, 7? lan centres before we properly play at the 8th one.
chanel handbags conclusion of the day: i totally dont want to play CS in lan anymore. seriously la, i have to idea how to kill at all. or buy gun wadevaz. thankfully jonathan helped me, if not imm be a total feeder (keyword being total. i still ended up a feeder.) dota was much better, had kai ern on both times and he was pretty good. so i happily ended up being a mini-pro and sometimes can kill sometimes feed that kind. ok la, considering it's ar, the ppl very nice liao, never keep finding me to kill. (OH thats not the case for cs. there's this life person that aim for me everytime i come out of the building. always kenna killed by that guy. lol. but i dunno whos that.)
today is sun. lots of things to do. but top on the list... inr. packing hopefully i can start at night rofl. if not tml. anywayz was reading the auditionsea forum and came across this:
You know you're addicted to Audition...
~ You say "Beat City" or "Funky Town" is your location
~ You count as 1...3...2...4...5
~ You tape a notice on your elevator saying "Audition - Elec Bossa - 123 BPM" to warn people of the fast speed
~ At a dance, you ask the DJ if he can choose the "easy" instead of the "hard" version
~ At the next song, you ask him not to play "Sweetie" because you can't perf it enough
~ You dance with a crush and tell him/her that you need more hearts or else you can't kiss
~ You ask your teachers if there's going to be a license at the end of the unit
~ You fail the aforementioned license and you tell your teacher it was because you lagged
~ You and your friends try to beat up the school bully, get beaten up, then yell at them because they didn't perf enough
~ At a dance contest you ask the announcer if you can 8k or if it's 4k only
~ You buy a new outfit and ask the person at the register if the price is in Den or Cash
~ You tell your friends you'll meet up somewhere and when they're not there you call and ask if they're in the wrong channel/server
~ When there are rumors going around that you're expelled from school for being too obsessed with Audition, you tell your friends "They're going to ban me, but it's okay, because the Korean server is sooo much better anyway"
~ You meet a boy who acts like a girl and ask if his avatar is just glitched up from the last patch
~ You break your local DDR machine angrily while screaming "Why can't you be more like beat up!?"
~ Before buying a new CD, you ask where the music shop is so you can hear how it sounds
~ You search at night for UFOs and hope one of them has the local rankings on it
~ When at work, you say you can't go home because it isn't added yet
~ You go to your dance class and ask if everyone is doing '46FM64'
~ You hope there's no school today because you heard the channel went down last night
~ Even in the largest rooms, you can only fit 16 people
~ 10 of those people have to lean against the wall and all they can do is either wave or bend down
~ When you see someone wearing sweatclothes or pink tops with white pants, you ask if they just joined
~ You constantly look above your head, waiting for your name to appear
~ When someone writes in many colors, you ask how much den it cost to change their pen that many times
~ You get scared at competitions when there are too many people around because you think everyone will crash
~ Whenever you want to say a cuss word, you bleep it out with the word 'FROGGY'
less funny ones:
~ When you think of Audition everytime you see arrows
~ When you chance too much and when you see a signboard telling u to go left, you go right.
~ When u r taking a bus u see the bus number and immediately u think of a song with the same bpm
~ When u saw some1 doin breakdance at orchard rd and approached them and ask "cool. wad keys huh"?
~ When u cant find ur fren u sms him "u dc-ed?"
~ When ur fren are walking slower than u u call out "u lagger!"
haha ppl who dont play probably wont get a laugh out of it. but i seriously did lol. so ppl who play, hoped u had a gd laugh and understood the jokes lol.

it's one of those nights again. had a afternoon nap, thus dont feel like sleeping even if it's already 4am now.
4am, a time for some amongst us to wake up already. possibly on to their work, which requires an early start. like the market ppl?
4am, also a time for some amongst us who still havent slpt. possibly taking leave tml, thus out there partying and having fun. or for the j2s, mugging into the depths of the night. or for some, plainly spamming games till tml morning b4 sleeping. those avid gamers.
4am can as well be a time for one to sit down in front of their comp, quietly taking in the night air at the window. looking at the dark sky and street lights twinkling. hmm no moon nor stars tonight. just black squares after black squares of dark rooms of buildings from my view. the whole city is still in slumber. my estate at least. nth much to be sad abt, since it's the hols after all. but yet, like a habit, im tuning in to foolish games, which never fails to make the night more meaningful and awake.
been doing a little thinking of this year. i dunno how well or badly i fared in academic, cos it's after all a new level of syllabus and change in study style, so i guess i need time to get used to it (though 10 months is a little long to adapt). but personality wise. there have been ups and downs as expected i guess. hopefully more ups than downs,
chanel handbags but i wouldnt know. the class has been a really fun and nice bunch, and i hoped i treated them the same way i feel they treat me. of cos, squabbles occur. but overall, i hoped i havent made any enemies. for all u know, there can be someone who is always cursing at my presence. oh wait, there's already that someone. hope there wont be any additions to that.
6th november. time really flies, doesnt it. im going to go for ocip shanghai in no time, and by the time i return, it'll be like end of nov le. it's scary how it's passing so fast. i want to accomplish so much, so much more than what i think i can do with the limited time. but i have no idea what exactly i want to accomplish. but definitely not rotting at home everyday, munching on biscuits and reading books, playing dota AI, kongkongsea, audition, or o2jam. neither do i want to commit myself to anything, like a job even. highly impossible.
i think im uttering nonsense as usual haha. nevertheless, im determined to do something this hols. for starters, mebbe my resolutions. yes, i shall begin with that. for one, i think i learnt how to play mahjong liao, at least the basics haha. mebbe ill find a day to ask someone to teach me cycling. or skating. or rollerblading. or mebbe even one day out at sea kayaking. yes i think ill do that.
musically wise. my guitar shall come into use, though it's classical. i will learn some simple piano songs. i will work hard in my instru, and MEBBE ill even go for the concert for ruanzu. but not high possibility, since i like ponned for... 6 months? =.=
i dont really know wad i should do now. sleep seems so far away. yet the morning is approaching. perhaps ill take a cold shower now. give myself a refreshment. meanwhile do somemore thinking.
When You Believe - Mariah Carey & Whitney Houston
Many nights we've prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we knew we could
(Oh yes)
There can be miracles when you believe
Though hope is frail, its hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe
(Oh yeah)
In this time of fear
When prayers so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
Yet now I'm standing here
With heart so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say
There can be miracles when you believe
(When you believe)
Though hope is frail, its hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
(You can achieve)
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe
They don't always happen when you ask
And its easy to give in to your fears
(Oh)
But when you’re blinded by your pain
Can't see your way straight through the rain
A small but still, resilient voice
Says love is very near
(Yeah)
There can be miracles
(Miracles)
When you believe
(Lord when you believe… ooh oooh)
Though hope is frail
(Though hope is frail)
Its hard to kill
(It's hard to kill… ooh oooh)
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
(You can achieve)
When you believe
… oooh
Somehow you will
(Somehow, somehow, somehow)
Somehow you will
(Now I know)
You will when you believe
You will when you
You will when you
Believe
Just believe
Just believe
You will when you believe

havent been blogging for sometime, cos had a busy wk. but funn!! whee.
sat went to watch chsco's concert in collaboration with some hongky co (xiang1 gang3 QING1 NIAN2 yin1 yue4 xie2 hui4 - ok nvm the han yu pin yin) notice the keyword being QING NIAN. youth.
been dreading it lol. (sorry jnrs!) cos ever since our batch, the standard of chsco has been dropping and dropping and dropping. i cannot imagine if we dont get even a gold next yr, not to mention gold with honours... hope for the best lo. but despite this dreadful feeling, it turned out to be quite ok la. not as bad as we thought. a BIG BIG pity was that it's at hc audi la. wtf. no esplanade nvm. no SCH nvm. then even no VCH nvm. but this is it. NOT EVEN nafa. hc audi. super humiliating can. (k sorry again jnrs.) randy kinda saved the liang2 zhu4, and u all played the chuang3 jiang1 ling4 and tian1 long2 ba1 bu4 pretty well. so it was quite ok la. pity abt the acoustics of hc audi though. dunno if thats a blessing in disguise. (ok i shall stop doing this to my jnrs)
but despite that u all put up a gd show, that im proud of. haha. it's nice to see our jnrs all over again, especially during intermission when we chiong to the mad dance studio below the audi where they were to talk with them and stuff. and after the concert having a looooong chat with the tchrs and all. and the nice feeling to being back at mph and seeing all the chinese high stuff going on (lol u know wad i mean). not only it being a gd chance to talk to our jnrs, it's a night of hcco without the gals as well. kinda miss these times where it's just all guys from co and just our batch lol. went to kap to have a super late supper (we dilly dally and dragged due to waiting and finding an exit and more waiting from 10 to abt 11.30). and we ate and chatted at kap till abt 1+ rofl. had to share cab with hong fei back home. (that reminds we of the cab fare i owe him. oops.)
the next day, whee 6D chalet at aranda =)) haha shant elaborate much, but it was a whole load of fun too. distinctly u can separate the house into a few compartments. apart from the 2 toilets/bathrooms, and the kitchen. living room was butchered into 2. the side with the tv being PS + movie galore. and the side with the dining table being mahjong haven. in the 2 rooms were alternating between guitar serenading + sing-song sessions and bridge clubs. we brought mahjong sets, cards, dvd player, playstation, movies, games, loads of junk food, pot luck food, all to occupy ourselves for the 3 days haha.
had loads of fun with the playstation, with marvel vs capcom, ddr, ff7, watching wwe smackdown, bomberman, metal slug etcetc. movies wise, watched scary movie 2 (it really lowers ur iq la i think. DAMN DUMB), house of wax (just plain gory and sick lol), shrek 2 (watched b4, but it's always welcome after a movie like house of wax) and armeggedon (though i didnt watch it). oh oh, and learnt mahjong!! haha. great breakthru achievement. although i didnt exactly learn cycling... nvm shall learn some other day! learnt a couple of songs from peng sing on the guitar too. time for some practising haha.
first night we had our pot luck, with loads of food and drinks. so much i cant really elaborate lol. i can only briefly rmb this smiley face potato, nuggets, otah, satay, chicken wing, corn, marshmallow, fishball, and staple food fried rice and bee hoon. then it rained la. a bit disappointing, but at least we were almost done with our dinner. 2nd day's breakfast was macs delivery (delivered by ourselves lol, meng ask others to takeaway), lunch and dinner at downtown east. they went cycling in the afternoon and we went arcade at night. some went to xbox also. haha quite fun also la. meng shoot hoops, spent a lot of time at para para and some on bishi bashi and photo hunt (but the photo hunt machine chao lousy graphics.)
back to the chalet for a night of... beverages lol. how can i forget the alcohol. cos weiye is past 18 yrs old liao. so we meng ask her to buy alcohol for us haha. beer, wine, mild alcoholic drinks. we bought all la simply. lol. i didnt go with them to cheers, but managed to koup a bit here and there rofl. it was kinda nice. but saw lots of red faces after that haha. and we were so high we started to sing at the top of our voices. and if that wasnt bad enough we were singing stupid songs la!! like nursery rhymes, children's day song, national day songs etcc. chao ben :P
anyway it was just fun fun fun. pity it was so short. ws ys ck and i had to leave early the next morning for ocip meeting anyway. sighs.
ok this is starting to become a long post lol. take a break here if u want. (im talking to myself! omgg. but wait, ive always been talking to myself.) OK NVM IM LAMING MYSELF ONLY.
*************************************************************************************
today went to ps to watch prestige with dj yx wj ps wensheu wc dr cj ph kg. wah super zai show can. at first it was kinda confusing. but then it turned out to be a really amazing plot. i cant really describe. for those whove watched the trailer or something, u should know abt the 3 things a magic trick has: the pledge, the turn, the prestige. and despite it being a show all about magicians and their tricks,
replica watches lives turn out to be illusionary all along too. the 2 magicians are not who they really are haha (shant spoiler too much). so it's like their own lives has taken into account a pledge, a turn, and of cos, a prestige.
they have been using tricks in real life to trick the world themselves la. i just read a review, and it mentioned how it is a show that u can discuss for wks and nv get tired of it. i cant believe it to be that apt. it's a show where the whole plot unravels only at the end of the show, and u are kept in suspense and confusion, cos u dunno which part in the middle of the show is the prestige, the real truth at the end of the trick. and it turns out that nth can be trusted all the way to the last scene.
haha amazing isnt it. literally the lives of the magicians are abt this. outside their lives, it is too. out of the screen and as a movie, the same structure remains. this kinda of multiple layered plot makes the show a whole notch above the rest la. simply put that way.
thats all i wanna say. keen? go and watch. u wont regret it.
just a fact i only found out a while ago (ok im slow), this movie is a battle between wolverine and batman. rofl. enjoy.
