On my way

Today feels good.

Afternoon after RE my mom picked me like, 3hours late? But anyway i didn't dawdle when i reached home so i'm pretty glad, after a tasty dinner of hor fun i viewed SHE the MVs for a while(my mom bought their best collection+5new songs for me and it came with the MVs) then went to hardcore chem for nearly 2 hours. Not that i covered much ground, but i really believe i'd get 80% for tmrw's quiz. I finally hardcoded the silly electrochemical series into my head!

Its time to do lit. Whee.

Oh and when hearing ying yue ri ji today i heard this song, Journey by Corrinne May. So nice.

some words

你为了他爱
你为了他笑
静静我听你说着甜蜜
你为了他恨
你为了他哭
静静我陪你渡过伤心
你醉了吻我脸颊留唇印
也留下禁止通行的标记
证明你需要我
你说真的需要
我不变的永远朋友
你还是不懂我在爱你
我还是没有把握这结局
我和你错在太过重感情
痛依然不放弃
反而决定把手握更紧
从以前我就认定
任现在慌乱了心
在未来还是等你
反正我要把手握更紧hoo…

作词:黄祖荫作曲:邱暐议编曲:王豫民演唱:邱暐议

Heard lingzhi introducing this song today, and she was saying how it sounded like the ying yue ri ji she often reads out. Indeed, its so poetic but i'd have prefered to hear her reading it out rather than the song itself =/

Are you fit to

I wanted to write this last night.

You know, writing always relieves you of some of those very strong feelings. Its a form of expression.

So i didn't write, because i wanted the feelings to stay within me. Not get expressed away.

But not like it worked. Over the night, i awake, feeling lousy and lazy. Bleah.

So lets see if we can work the mood back.

I feel so sick about myself yesterday. its really sickening, i hate it. hate. hate. hate.

hate losing.

Ytd's floorball carnival's campaign ended pretty quickly, we lost both of our group matches and went out with an overall score of 5-0. And its like, frankly, i was the weakest link. Get back to this later.

Then i went to play Gryphon cup, which is a bball tourney for ex batches of RI bballers. Anyway we played against the batch that was sec4 when we were sec1, and got pwn pretty bad.

What i don't understand is this. Why is it that during floorball right before the game i was filled with negative thoughts, like "they got 2 hockers, we sure die" etc. And during the match i didn't have any fitness to speak of. sucks. And bball. Prematch i was draining shots, including 3pts, yet during game time i missed both free throws. I could cut in and get shots off, like anybody else, but the key of course, is whether u make it or not. And i didn't.

It really brought back memories of the game vs sionghwai at qiuping cup. If i were to win him, becoming champ won't be a problem. And i played stoically at first, until.... i found i was in the lead! And i felt surprised when i was leading. This sucks. Where's my winner mentality? Why did i get used to losing? I hate this. Phillip said once i'm in the lead, i forget how to play. No, no. To put it accurately, its, Once i'm in the lead, i don't WANT it.I remember telling the weiqi guys before the comp, go out there, enjoy yourselves, and remember that you are strong. But did i believe it myself? Did i believe i was strong enough to beat siong hwai? did i believe that we can make the semis of floorball carn? Did i believe that i can make 2 simple free throws? NO I DID NOT.

Where's my Winner's Mentality?

I DON'T want to be a loser.

no, no, no.

Its sickening. U let ppl down. Zijian was so confident of winning. i agreed in words, but i didn't BELIEVE it. I pride myself in the weiqi club. But do i practise what i preach?I laugh and tell my bball mates to 'keep the difference under hundred'.But since when was getting pwned such a funny matter? Where's my competitive fire?

I'm a WINNER. WINNER.WINNER.

but am i fit to call myself one?

Being a winner means more than koping medals and posing for pics, like i did with prasatt. no no. it means having the FIRE. U know, using your brains, but playing with FIRE. Competitive.

There's a physical side to it as well. I think my 2 weeks of cough + antibiotics has robbed me of some of my fitness. I really must work at it all over again. But i must. I can, becuz i've done it before. I've pushed myself to run everyday and ran with fire before. I must do it again.

I was far from fit. i was playing lazy defence. Like chenz said, playing def in floorball means, like all sports, staying in front of ur guy, and reaching in for the ball only with ur hands controlling the stick, means ur body remains steady.

There nothing new under the sun.

I knew all that from my bball days as well. But i was lazy.

Lazy to wait for the chance to present itself. Lazy to remain in defence. Lazy to resist the temptation of just diving in and blasting the ball away .Lazy to run back after i make the dash forward into dust as my man gets past me. Lazy.

I remember one time after a friendly game in sec1, coach was saying we all played very well, and the reason he found was that we were all alot fitter and can run without tiring.

Yes. Fitness. Go run, baby.

Run with FIRE.

watched drama feste last night as well, and then left after the 2 plays, didn't bother waiting for results. Ian went down to congratulate bp and i didn't wanna follow. Like, when everyone are going down to mob someone, i'm not following. But anyway bp came up later and was like asking, did u cry did u cry, did the play touch u? Hahaha i had lots of comments.

But then again, was i fit to give it?

i told him that the atmosphere wasn't right. Like lots of silly laughter. During the play at times i found myself wondering, did the script writer plan for these parts to be funny? Like in morrison's play when at such an emo moment when the young boy was basically morphing into the 'successful' adult, and the cast were saying "More + House" and ppl interpreted it as "Moor house" and laughed. Was that planned? I sure hope not, it was an intensive moment to me, why add in this useless laughter? But morrison had the benefit of jayanth's excellent tabla. His mom sat in front of me, videoing the morrison play. I wanted to go up and say, auntie, ur son's really talented. She must be one proud mother.

The tabla intensified the mood when called upon. Full marks for it.

Bp's play couldn't enjoy the benefit of the tabla though though. Oh and at the start of bp's play when they flashed the red light, had this crashing sound and the brother goes off, i thought it was some cliche play about the brother dying omg. But the play itself was better. Like when he hinted at the schizo right from the start when the boy thought the tv was on when it wasn't.But somehow i feel the atmosphere wasn't quite right. dunno how to explain. I probably won't take lit next yr anyway, so whatever lor.

Oh and i thought the question of whether removing the imaginary brother was actually 'good 'for the boy could be be explored better. Like when the mom said smth like "the medicine's is to help you get better" i was thinking, Better? really?

I've read before about some psychologist who had a lady patient and for whatever reason i cannot remember, but it was really BAD and she lost her mind and in her distorted frame of mind she imagined herself married to the english royal family and demanded that ppl call her "Princess".

And the shrink said, if he had the ability to pull her out of her imaginary world, he would not do it. it'd be Cruel.

Alright alright its all done and over with, excellent effort by whoever's involved. And ian i didn't stay cuz i wasn't in the mood for it. My mind was bothered by the stuff above u know.

I really must get back the Winner's frame of mind. Last time at night when i slept i like to hug my bolster for comfort, imagining it to be a Someone who's there to comfort me. but now i know. This Someone is just an illusion, an illusion caused by my wants and needs and all thats dear to me. it all that that i'm hugging. Myself. Me.

So what am I?

Winner? Loser?

I want to say 'Winner'. But where's the mentality?

Or maybe, as i heard on tv last night from this police show, forensic ppl were expousing this theory:

If you can't find it, its because you haven't found it yet.

Find the FIRE

The world of the walking dead

Everyone's tired out.

I'm too.

But for all the wrong reasons. I mean, if i stayed up to mug then alright tiredness in sch is ok, but i'm staying up but doing nothing useful. Thats bad.

Last night was a slight improvement. I stayed up still (bad) but i was watching documentary with my dad, its his birthday. It was some documentary abt the shamans in korea called Mudangs. And then we watched another one (he somehow got hold of alot of vcds) on the Kurks, the nuclear submarine, pride of the Russian Navy, that got sunk in 2002. All the cover-up and all. Actually i agree with the cover up, i mean, no way i'll be for world war III. But really, world peace hangs in balance.

I was sleeping during physics today. Its a kind of first. I mean not that i never nod off during lessons but then its the first time i slump on the table during lesson time omg i'm really tired and come on, how long does it take to explain the LOSER , i mean,Fleming left hand rule sign. Loser signcuz, no matter how u look at it, its shows L. L for loser.

Oh and mr tph was back today and for once in a long while lesson's fun and interesting again whee. I love chinese lesson out of all cuz the teacher's really funny and interesting, ditto for social studies as well. The rest -yawn-. Ok i'm being really unfair but u know, some teaching styles are simply more interesting than others.

Let's give 'em a W! W for winner.

oh yes and jon ng said, mrs tham is leaving nanyang, which isn't really an issue. Like, by next yr i doubt anyone 'd go back nanyang anyway. And if we wanna visit mrs tham could always ask her out.

ANyway i don't really feel close to nanyang itself anymore. Its like, the place itself doesn't even bring back old memories, not cuz i've forgotten everything, but because just a name 'nyps' can't give me memories in a building where i have none.

ok i better get back to lit. I really think i've got an excellent group, CJ sent me the revised stuff without any prompting, i better go organise it into an essay format before kevin sends me his. And then we got the presentation next week.

Ibetter enjoy this wkn, come next wk.... Haiz. Week of death.

Open and Close

Mouths are closed by default,
But words invariably spill out.
Minds are deep in thought,
But mess's sometimes still slip.
Our ears are open by default.
But words never get in.

So many ppl talking, so few ppl listening. Our eyes look outwards, but our focus still stuck inwards. Haiz. What a day of lessons!

Anyway there were good stuff. Got junren to join our floorball team so we're gonna play this sat!!!! whee.

Oh and i heard from a certain source, by the way of observation, that my lit group is considered the weakest, hence we got to choose new members as well as question for essay first. geez i was taken aback when i first heard it and was eager to dismiss it as rubbish, but now i genuinely believe someone thinks so.

You know, you know, by definition, a team with ME cannot be considered a weak group? I know , I know, i'm being so self-absorbed again. But hey, if i'm not for myself, who is for me? Time to hardcore lit!!!

oh yeah and i really need more sleep. Helps me keep my temper in control. Like i tell zijian, everyone has their good and bad sides, focus on the good side, and the world will appear a better place.

And to keep this focus, sleep's a MUST.

Oh before i go, lemme relate smth.

I was telling ben we finally managed to get the floorball thing so he was asking who zijian was, whether its my class's inter class soccer's striker... so i said: To be accurate, zijian was not the striker.... he was marking the keeper =/

Withdrawal Syndrome

Step by step, heart to heart, left right left

We all fall down...

[Chorus]

Step by step, heart to heart, left right left

We all fall down like toy soldiers

Bit by bit, torn apart, we never win

But the battle wages on for toy soldiers

Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall apart...

alright alright i admit the last 2 lines were faked by me, i just wanted to 'fall apart' part.

Its all falling apart.

The withdrawal syndrome.

2days after i withdrew 4 teams from SP tourney, now karma has came my way.

Its been a day of withdrawals.

U see, i've been trying to assemble to floorball team, so finally zijian joined and we had 4 but now ben withdrew cuz of his Jap trip, so i guess i can look forward to hanging out with his jap frens when they finally come. But for now, I don't wanna withdraw from the floorball thingo!

Oh and there are others as well.

But nvm!

Bit by part, part by part, one by one,

I'll put them up!! Like True Soldiers

Natural vs Professional

Ok before i start on what i wanted to post about, here's smth more urgent:

RECRUITMENT DRIVE FOR FLOORBALL TEAM!!!!!!!

Right ppl, want to play floorball during next sat's floorball carnival, under the tutelage of the great Aaron Chenz who has deep experience playing with his church team? then JOIN US!!!!

Details: The tourney is from 11-3, we'll get to play 4 matches, each person contribute 2.50 to the $10 registration fee. We're not planning to have any subs so you'll get to play ALL 4 MATCHES!!!

Requirements:
-Reasonably Athletic ( smth like silver in NAPFA 'd do, or if u just fail pullups its alright as well. Just no 2.4 failures, cuz we're not playing subs and we need ya to RUN RUN AND RUNNNNNNN)


Yeahhh thats abt it. Btw the team comprises me ben goh and aaron chenz. And for ppl like those ben had asked and they said what this event is a 'Mainstream' event and they GEP don't want to go, lemme assure u that we're 100% non-streamist! I mean come on lah whats in 3 letters, G-E-P?

Now on to the topic of the day. My SP tourney experience.

The day started off bad, i went late and i think thats really a turn off. Anyway the tourney was supposed to start at one and we only had our captains meeting at like, 3+? We all got pissed and ppl started complaining and yiheng was saying "All your fault why u register" a few times and i got pissed and told him "You shut up i'm pissed enough". Cuz all the organiser said when i went to ask a few times is 'wait wait wait'. and yiheng wasnt the only one complaining.but aiyah i should controlled myself.

But i'm sorry for all these outbursts i had, including being pissed at patrick when he called cuz i had picked up 4phone calls IN A ROW.

okok i ought to go for an anger management course.

But anyway i fared better later considering at the capts meeting how other capts behaved. Some were rather rude. So lemme say what i think here.

I've come to believe that while getting angry over such stuff is only Natural, behaving rudely is Unprofessional.Reason's simple. Cuz the organiser, knowing that the comp has already been delayed (reason for which is as yet unknown, but we can venture the reasonable guess that he has been saddled with probelms) would hardly be in the best of moods and pissing him off even more doesnt help things. Yah i know ppl's pissed (someone said, this thing is so fucked up =/ ) But look: Quite simply, our job as captains is to work things out to the best possible situation for our team.

And in RI's case, i believe the best way out was to withdraw.

which we did.

I heard from hansiong that they ended up playing only 1 round today. Oh my. I stand by my decision to withdraw even more. And Hanyu said they only started playing at 4+. By then i was already at jurong east watching pirates of the caribbeans movie. Wheee!

Hardly the best ending for the last tournament i'm gonna lead the team into.

But it was an educational one.

Time for something good

Alright enough of my messed up maths. Lets talk about smth good.

I'm pleased with today's weiqi training. Probably these 2 factors helped:

-Maths club didnt have training
-RIMB was having a concert. Which means, no noise and we can all sit, think and meditate over our moves.

A record(or at least the highest in quite a while) 15 ppl turned up for weiqi training today!

Oh and 2 new recruits. Props to jiwei and Alan/yiheng for bringing new ppl in. I had experience dragging ppl in during the early days b4, and today u bring enthu ones. Gd job man.

Pure numbers isnt the thing. I think its really well done today, how it was conducted.

See. The begginners worked on the basic sihuo questions to build up their basics (i wish i did that when i started) and really had fun going about it. The players going for combined training later played and recorded their games and later at rjc we managed to go over them. Really useful. And other players worked on other sihuo books. Look, ppl, even yonghan is being senior to the sec1s and guiding 'em along!

wheeeee!!!!!!!!


If i leave a legacy behind in RI, this is IT!

Next yr i leave the noisiness of the training behind.

But let me bring along the Enthu-ness.

The Love for the Game.

17/7/06 monday

Hows a date for a title?


On MC today, but slept pretty late last night so it kinda defeats the purpose. I'm still not getting very much better. Its still a case of being alright normally but when the itch to cough comes, it comes real bad.

Decided to rest more today, so i played weiqi after lunch and till now havent started work. There's maths this thurs and physics on fri, So i'll practise 'em later.

Read in a letter to today some time back that the effective way for parenting kids who love games is to let them play it for abt 30-45min after they come back from sch, then do hw, then if got time play again.

So i'll give it a shot, play weiqi first then go study, but for me, its strictly no more computer tonight. Otherwise once i start chatting, it'll take awhile to stop.

Leave these for the wkn. Or maybe just wk7 'd be gd enough, when dmp starts.

whee!

so little, so little

This wkn has been one of recuperation.

rest,rest ,rest.

I did the The day that changed my life essay this morn. Woke up, lay in bed and thought for ideas. Then it came. THe ideas and everything that eluded me the entire sat night.

Its a sad sad story. my mom said so. And hz said, its depressing. So i'll not post it here.

Maybe i'm just in one of those moods today, mood that allows me to write sad stuff.

And look sad.

Today tuition, i don't think i smiled. I just coughed away.

Rest, rest well.

something to share

Let me share an email i just saw not long ago, with sender info removed:

"

hello, it is me again. *********.

i think we should change the emphasis of the school.
we have to build rafflesians so that they will become well rounded people in the future.
other schools are very happy to let their students skip lessons and support their athletes.
why cant we?
are we so strong that the school have gotten used to such big events?
look at acsi.
everytime they will flood the competition venue.
and get all the attention.
and all the girls.
dont we feel pai seh?

"

Hahahahaha. It brings to mind two things:

One, during the tennis finals, i heard some guys saying, if the finals took cheering into account, we sure die one.

Two, a teacher saying that ri guys have poorer social skills than acsi guys.

Then i remember something else:

I remember reading that in a study, technical expertise was ranked pretty far back in a list of important criterias ppl will take into account before hiring top level staff. Social skills, ability to interact (whether with potential clients, bosses, co-workers and subordinates) were tops.

Of cuz, u can say, if i invent the next internet, i'll go RICH, nevermind whether i can talk to peeps or not. But hey, what if you dont invent the next internet? Where are you, after slogging all these years? stuck in rut, just cuz ur mouth doesn't move the right way, and nothing good comes out?

If not, what?

I wish i knew the answer.

So all you can do is get angry?

Control, boys, its all about the control.

Just yesterday i was complaining to someone about how poorly an event was being organised. So she told me that it was organised by students, hence the messiness of the process. Then she proceeded to ask me, if let you guys organise, can you do better? Without thinking, i said "of course".

Now?

I'd reconsider.

My voice was sore today. The cough's getting worse, and the blaring of the musical groups practising didn't help. But my control of the tournament today could be further improved.

Certain points to take note of in the future (if i ever have any more chance to organise another tournament) :

-Setting up of tournament venue even earlier. And ensure sufficient manpower such that even if some of the organisers turn up late, we still have enough ppl left. To save time, we should have planned what to do in each classroom beforehand.

-Get the houses to have 1 overall ic. Really helps in draws and organisation.

-For each section, have the registration forms on different paper so its easier to refer to.

-Disallow on-lookers if classroom's too noisy (done in one cchess tourney i've been to before)

-Adopt a stricter tone overall. Reach the consensus that our tourney room ought to be quiet. Really, once the environment gets rowdy ppl start fooling around playing with clocks and not following simple instructions like pressing the clock with the playing hand.

-No getting angry. i got furious today. Now thats BAD, no matter how i justified it during the competition. cool, calm, boys.

I found it strange today when shawn came in and asked, "why this room(weiqi) so quiet?"

Why shouldn't a room hosting a chess tournament be quiet? Its an intellectual game, and i've always believed that for it to be conducive, all noise should be shut out, as far as possible. Of cuz i can't go and stop other ccas from practising. but surely i can stop the pointless banter going on.

I had in this situation umpteen times: Deep in thought, pondering over a crucial move, calculating, placing the stones on my mental board, before a roar for elsewhere cruelly and needlessly smashes all my precious visualisation to bits and pieces.

Which is one of the reason why, for a period of time last year, i adopted the practise of listening to music during competions. Which is something i've stopped because it wasn't practical for me to do that daily while in china training.

But anyhow, a conducive environment for thinking is very impt to me.

If i ever organise another tournament, it'll be one held under such conditions.

should this be " "?

In case you can't quite catch the title, it means to say, should titles be empty?

Yesterday we went to sph to interview ms lewis, editor of stomp, and she kindly introduced us to 2 former teachers to help us on our project on how blogging affects students english.

Anyway, one of the teacher raise the point that during his teaching days, he viewed his students blogs but found them uninteresting, because they were mostly random stuff without a central topic. So it set me thinking.

What's the purpose behind a blog?

I suppose if you use it as an online diary (spawning host names like diaryland) then it being random is not only alright, but to be expected. I mean, u talk to your diary at times, don't you, dear diary? After all when u recall thoughts of the day then our thoughts will flow (maybe 'jump' is a more appropriate word) and stuff that comes out will appear random.

Our maybe blogs are a collection of entries on our thoughts of specific issues. Which, i think, is the path Stomp bloggers are taking in the sense that they are, after all, given weekly topics to write on. Yeah.

I prefer randoming actually because after all my blog is just another of my 'outlet' so yeah, just vent. But then again, since i like to read my own blog (narcisstic? hell yeah) probably i can spilt my writing into different entries on the same day. Like, sometimes i find my own entries messy as well heh.

Of cuz, its ITS A FREE WORLD!!!! So either is fine =)

But hey, if you want your teacher reading, and enjoying, your blog, then maybe topical entries are the way to go.

Time for conservation

Had been thinking if its right to go to sch, sick.

With a gpa of 3.33, missing any sch really hurts. Not to mention that you'll have to find teachers to make up for test yourselves.

Not that sch was bad. Had to shake myself awake a few times, and couldn't really chat merriliy with my frens since i did not want to trigger off a bout of cough. But still being there, moving, not lazing arounds and wasting off, fills me with energy. Vigour.

heard a few coughs as well though. Sam, daryl zijian. heh. Take care and don't fall sick... like me!

Tmrw there's announcement for qiuping cup prize presentation and STOMP interview in the evening. Wheee. Part of what i come to sch sick for. And lets not forget, physics pract and bio quiz.Now, now, bio is part of my endangered specis of 4.0s.

Time for conservation.

and oh-so-much poorer

Geez i lost my bet. What goes around comes around i guess. So right now my betting for wc is broken even. Win nothing, lose nothing =)

Nothing to comment abt zidane's headbutt. I just don't know what to say, its inexplicable.

Alright, some random musings. I lay down to think about how to write "The Day that changed my life". Not that i got any ideas, but i let my mind flow freely, here and there and everywhere, and so here's the random musings:

-Health's oh so impt: My hacking cough makes it so hard for me to talk. Not that i'm the kind who like to yak yak yak, but if u wanna organise stuff u really need to talk. And feeling lousy IS lousy. And geez i can't miss sch, sch's so, so, so, tight, i dun want to miss a day and come back scrambling to keep up and have sleepless nights yet again.

-I must watch myself: Two wks ago during the interview, when i called the interviewee who was on his way out to get the new guy in, mrs ong commented that it was rather rude. No lah she meant no harm, since she was laughing while saying it. But really maybe after getting used to assigning tasks i'm neglecting my Ps and Qs. Time to go for Courtesy Campaigning again!

-What you don't know about yourself: I've looked at the comments BM put at the video, as well as the comments readers left. And of course, i've looked at the video itself. My touching of my nose,i've already talked abt it, bad habit to be gotten rid off! And BM calling us 'shy boys'. Hmmm. I never knew i came across as that. Not within this past year at least, i believed i've grown more outgoing in the past year. As for the reader's comments... well it provides an insight into how others view ri ppl. Nothing new under the sun of cuz, but viewing them after watching a video with us inside just brings their comments into my head in a stronger manner.

-Future of SG: During chinese tuition we were discussing the essay topic about a newspaper report of scholarship winners opting to go china's universities rather than european ones. And teacher was saying, go china then when the west and china collaborate, we can work as middlemen. Oh my gosh. If this is going to be our niche area, then i'm rather worried. After all, we're not the only ppl capable of billingualism you know. The Chinese can easily pick up english(some better than us even), and the west is also picking up chinese. Not that i'll rule out studying in a China university. But not with the goal of being middleman, because i think in the long term, its not a role that'll be sustainable. But what other alternatives do we have? I wonder.

-If you don't like philo, say it like this: "it makes me feel stupidier than i already am." hahaha. oh my, as philo rep and enthusiast for the past 2 or 3 yrs i've encountered many ppl who pour cold water on it. For example, Q: Why are you spamming the 'introduce yourself section of my philo forum but not posting anywhere else?' A: Aiyah, becuz philo is boring.--> leaves me wishing they weren't here in the first place.Ditto for those who say 'teacher pick index no. one'. But with a reply like "it makes me feel stupidier than i already am.", haha thats an interesting reply, certainly not from someone stupid =)

NOse

No more touching my nose!

I just viewed the video BM put up today and sheesh i noticed how awkwardly and often i touched my nose! No wonder those red little jut-outs refuse to go away.

I'm still sneezing and coughing.

ugh.

"We print everything, except money"

Saw that in front of a printing shop today.

Been a week since my last post. So ironic, i've spent a week interviewing ppl about blogging, yet have yet to blog myself. Not that i 've nothing to blog. Plenty. Ideas aplenty. Just the 'time' factor.

You know, the time factor's always HUGE. Ur life is measured by time, in a sense. And they slip away by the seconds.

I'm rushing day after day. I don't think the sch's to be blamed, becuz i find myself invariably wasting 2-3 hours a day. On tv, slacking etc. Plus i think on tues afternoon while mugging maths in the library with ian, a polo player came over and he has polo training later that day from 7-9.30. Now, now, i'm much better off, arent i?

I think chess club stuff took up the bulk of the time. SP tournament, openhouse, training new leaders etc. Its draining. But then when we hand over, we'll miss these jobs.

Anyway interviewed mr edward decruz and miss quah on wed. if u dun know yet, my SS documentary believes that reading blogs with poor english will negatively affect the language proficiency of the reader, so thats gonna be our angle.

Today interview ppl from mgs, nushs as well as lee hsin. Morning before philo dialogue session had ushering as well, and of cuz there was the dialogue session itself. My throat already felt bad last night, i'm glad mine lozenges+chuan pei pi pa gao lasted me through half of today.

I'm feeling terrible though. Caught a cold i suppose.

Alright, i really can't afford so much down time. Who ask me yesterday after sch nvr go home and rest and went to play pool instead.

i ought to get some rest now.

goodnight.

First time in a long while i'm sleeping before 11.

i luv the wkn!

gasp,gasp,gasp,snore,yawn,goal!,snore,slog,slog,scrutinize

And thats the story of the week, the above title.

I can't remember exactly everyday, but the week's been sooooo busy + the viewing of soccer matches of cuz. SS group made some progress as well, i waste no time each weekday and still wind up sleeping 5hours/night. Oh but i dun feel tired, i suppose when you're pumped up everything's gonna be alright.

My skin aint getting better though and neither will my fitness if i still stay off the gym. Nah tmrw gonna go gym again.

Next wk's weiqi gonna have a break wheee cuz phillip's going overseas. Hmm not that i dun want weiqi, just that a break's always good, so i can clear up the work, get the projects done and after all by wk7 the DMP comes into play and i can enjoy the lessons that I pick myself.

Friday had mufti day and i think i really gotta get some shoes. U know when it comes to dressing the whole body outfit must synchronise and geez it sucks when ur shoes play you out.

Time flies. Last yr i was worried about interview and on fri was my turn to conduct interviews for chess club. Hmmmm. Not right for me to comment too much now but perhaps i should have included the juniors in the planning aspects of the club earlier this year.

Fri night watched soccer so u can imagine on sat how tired i was when i had to wake at 10 for tuition and right after that i fell on my bed and fell aslp immediately. omg. I love not having sleeping problems! Then i did hw and then watched soccer alll the way till 5 in the morn. Geez to be honest portugal-england was quite a bore, but brazil-france was more than worth it.

So today i woke up late again and missed chinese tuition, doing homework and proj and admin stuff instead and now you see, i only have time to blog late in the night.

There goes my sleep early plan, my Healthy Lifestyle.

As usual.

Don't break the circuit breaker

Its been some time since my last post.

The long short story, as dawnie put it. Actually, a satire.

my attempt at satire.

In any case, it worked like a charm and by the end, poof! i'm no longer pissed off.You know, anger fills you with passion. Passion, of cuz, is a good thing, it gets you going. But angers come in unhealthy proportions, it makes the light bulb go bright, brighter, brighterer and BOOM! no it doesn't explode but the circuit breaker gets activated, the circuit's broken and the light's off.

And the room plunges into darkness.

My bulb's back on, thx to the satire. Now satire targets people, yes mine resembles more of the Juvenalian sort rather than a horatian one. In any case, Mr. Stick, lets not ping pong anger back and forth.

I know you "dont' care".

But Don't break the circuit breaker
