6 more days...

As the date draws nearer, I'm feeling more apprehensive of what's to come. Of course I'm glad that after waiting for 2 years, I am finally going to get my knee fixed up. However, the cost of it made me quite upset. It's no longer about the money that my mother has to pay, it's about what I cannot do after the operation for about 9 months. Let me list down several things I would like to really do:

1) Basketball. Been practising some throwing...
2) Dancing. Been learning a dance, not the Befrienders' dance of course. It's a much cooler dance.
3) Doing PE. Hey I'm the PE rep and I don't take part in PE? Floorball, basketball :D

Also, my table tennis would have to stop but should I continue after my recovery or should I just forget about it? Have to think about it.

What's worse is that I won't be able to play captain's ball with the class or with anyone. Totally left at the sideline. AHHH

Now back to the holidays, yesterday was the first day for the holidays which I do not have to go back to school haha. Previously I had went back to school for PW, econs remedial and befrienders meeting. Have to say, first day only I feel so bored and gloomy. The weather didn't help too cos it was all dark and gloomy. The things I am doing at home is just reading "The Prisoner of Birth", playing Final Fantasy XII, practising my dance (not befrienders) and studying japanese. Decided not to go to the language school Ikoma as the materials are about 90% the same as mine and I can find lots more online too with regards to the JLPT. Wanted to find Wen Hao to play basketball today but he had lessons so I gave up. Hopefully next week he can before thursday =/. Tomorrow morning I'll go practice again haha.


I'll share a song so nice it makes you cry.
It's Why by Ayaka. It's the theme song for Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core. My respect to Zack Fair.



Right, this post ends here :)

Holidays are here

Don't know why, I would feel quite down when the holidays are here because I think that I won't be able to see my classmates much for a long time =/. Despite that, I guess yesterday was quite okay. For the civics lesson, we received our progress report and finally, our class photo!! After that, Mr Wong got us to play Chemistry Taboo haha, It's just taboo but the words to guess are all related to chem stuffs yea. The winner side would be promised high-end ice cream next time haha. So my group started spamming all the difficult terms, crazy. Eventually my group won la lol so we'll be getting our ice cream next time! After that everyone had to settle the H3 applications so we got into busy mode for a while. Then, about half the class met up at the amphi to play captain's ball. We played for quite a long time before so many strangers joined in that I didn't want to play anymore...yea so at about 12.30 we left for the canteen. I sat there, talked a bit and ate and finally left for home.....

Had a long chat with Reynard online haha, such a nice friend. Later I have to go back to school for tech-run or whatever that is and have a discussion on PW OP.

Tumultuous week.

Pretty decent promos results. GP and Econs didn't improve though. That means I have to work more on them.

Once again, tumultuous week.

Class outing on Friday 03/10/2008

Friday totally rocked man. First thing in the morning we had the briefing for project work oral presentation. Our dry run is on thursday and that means we have less than a week to prepare man. I think that really washed us awake from our holiday mood we got due to a a week of no school. This is the last part of the PW and I'm quite sure my group and in fact all the groups in 6V would be able to do a good job for this.

After that, about 10 of just followed mr lu back to his house in Bukit Timah road (as in he led us there, not that we stalked him lol :P) Play his Nintendo Wii till about lunchtime with the guys while the girls (only si hui and clarissa) played cards with shaun and RenaRd. The games on the Wii was really fun, loved especially the Super SmashBros and Snake's totally awesome with his final Smash, shoot the other players from a untouchable distance lol. Everyone was like scrambling to get out of my crosshair haha. The mario kart game was cool too, though i had to get used to driving for a while. After that we went for lunch at a nearby hawker centre, where the rest of the CCALs joined us.

More games when we went back to Mr Lu's house after lunch but i was quite tired already haha, since i normally have my afternoon nap :P Then i saw the girls helping mr lu's mother in the kitchen and i felt like helping too but i felt it would be wierd so i left them be. Eventually there were 4 girls helping Mr Lu's mother so I guess it would be fine. Despite that, I felt a little guilty so I decided I would help out as much as possible at the BBQ pit, which I did :), hopefully.

The fire was damn difficult to start because we were using Cock Brand fire starters lol. Ok, actually it was because the fire starters were already so old so they couldn't really catch any fire. Luckily Mr Lu went out to buy new ones so yeah, the fire finally was strong enough to cook the food. Wow, we spent about 1 hour starting the fire!

After dinner we went back to the house for more fun and have dessert prepared by Mr Lu's mother. Then we stayed till 10 pm and then everyone left for home. Went back to Toa Payoh with Tian Fei on bus 157.

All in all, it was a great class outing and we certainly have to thank Mr Lu and his mother for their hospitality. May we have more of such great times together!

Right, after 1 week of pure studying and papers after papers...the promos have come to an end. Well, i shouldn't do too badly i think, in fact im quite happy with how to did the exams, though the results aren't out yet :P. So yup, i have plenty of time to do lots of stuffs. I am learning japanese again (back to memorising the syllables) and i'm also picking up the guitar too.

Went to NYJC with wenhao today to help him out with physics but i don't think i helped out much, besides leaving my physics file in his hands...it wasn't a bad place, nice buildings. But the classroom we were in was in a very very wierd place.....plus, i also found out about his friend :)

Finally, the highlight of the day was the Singtel Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix! Been watching F1 for quite some time now and the entire week i was wondering how the track and race would be like...was apprehensive about how all the drivers said the track was super bumpy, like the 'cobbled paths of Paris'. I couldn't really see any chances of overtaking for the drivers. However, seeing them race on Singapore Road was an exciting prospect. So yea, today was the race and Felipe Massa of Ferrari was in Pole Position, followed by Hamilton and Raikkonen. You all should know how the race turned out...dramatic, appalling and exasperating. I wonder what the problem was as i've never quite seen such things before...

Hence i suggest to the authorities, before the next race in the next season (provided they do not cancel the contract prematurely), please do something to improve the track so that it's much more flamboyant but without all the accidents...

Japan is next. It has a really long long long straight course and i anticipate a very high speed F1 race.

IHC Table tennis was today...and i was the reserve. That's so dumb, me in reserve? That's the result you get, last for table tennis. I only played 1 match after waiting for so long and the person in charge just want to attitude. Had i played more matches things MAY be a bit different. Since you guys want ex-players so much, why not get me, a current player to play for you guys?

So the match i played was with this guy called Gareth and apparently everyone said he was damn pro and so i took up the challenge. I played not up to standard and it was a 11 - 6, though i had managed to bring it up from 10 - 2 to 10 - 6 before losing. But i believe that i had the potential to win him...sore...

Ah i think my life is back to normal...is it? Promotional exams are coming soon so i need to really spend more time studying. Sometimes i think studying and playing can come together but i think it can be quite hard as when you play too much you get hooked up and cannot study...and when you study too much, you get hooked too - i mean serious - and playing time is reduced. i think at this point of time, i still can play a little but when the promos draw nearer, i better start allocating more time to my work...

EOM for Pw is still at a standstill, which means i haven't touch it. I have to get it done, and in a superior quality as well by the 14 of August as that is my consultation day with ms low. c'mon, i know we can all get As for PW and slaughter this subject! i need an idea of a environmental video with a strong message to spread for my PW, anyone got ideas can email me at mayday1_2@hotmail.com

I just went to Man Ning's blog and read her latest post and realised that i didn't really talk to her in class much...i just i have to do better than that!

tomorrow is IHC table tennis! man, today i played with some guys from the team and hopefully tomorrow i can play as well, and hope we'll win!

INTRO
