Sleepy Saturday.

Yo everyone! The end of the holidays are coming and we should all start to rev-up our engines to go. I think mine is a bit broken cause it just wouldn't start, probably needing repair.

Anyway, BBQ at Alex's places was a blast. His house is HUGE. I swear, I could fit 4 of my house in it. It was fun anyway. Quite a few people went, including Amraesh, Uriah, Gary, Benjamin and JOEL CHEE. When I got there majority of the people were already starting the BBQ. Ben and Gary were cooking. Colin, Samuel and ZT were playing pool. Uriah was talking to his friend. Brandon and Alex were...I am not sure, if I am not wrong they were walking round. Then people started turning up one by one. Weng Loong asked me to give a call to 'Angmoh' to see if he was coming. And that guy picked up his phone only after I called him like a hundred times. Then, we ate, walk round, joke around, played pool and watched 'American Pie : Beta House'. The 'movie room' is like a concealed room in the mirrors. How awesome is that!? *sigh* Too bad Andrew had another party on, he would've been 'DA DJ'. Lol, everyone was expecting him. After all the stuff was over, only me and Ben stayed over at his house. Played 'Midnight' on PSP till 2am.


Woke up at 6.55am in the morning, then we left the place. I felt like we were sneaking out la, the place looked like it was on Code 5 lockdown. We were looking around for the keys. And we made our exit via the backdoor and walked up to the entrance. Then Ben left for Scouts in school and I made my way home. I took 171, thinking that it would end me up at Bukit Timah where I could transfer bus at serene. Who knew, I went all the way to Yishun bus-interchange. Great job... Then I took 171 BACK again. And this time it got me to where I wanted, and I found my way to Serene and took 93 home. Entire trip home took me, 2hrs 15 mins. My current record for the longest trip via Singapore Public Transport from one point to another. Efficient service, HA.

I got home, took a shower and left for breakfast with my family. Then the moment we got home, I went to sleep. It was a NICE, LONG and RELAXING nap. Woke up at 7.15pm. Then I ordered KFC delivery for my mom, my bro and me. After dinner, I left for bowling with my aunt at 8.45pm.

Last time I threw a bowling ball was before the exams. And now back to it...we played 4 games. And my average was pathetic...120 pins. That doesn't even get me into the primary school bowling team, l0l. Games ended at 12.30am...and I got home at 1.30am.

Man...I am beat, even if I did spend the noon napping.

So ciaoz people.

Boxing Day

Yo everyone, Christmas has just passed and spirits are still pretty high all around.

On boxing day, that great A math test I have been preparing for. It came. And went. And I didn't think I did any better than during the End-of-Years. I am so going to fail. But the rest of the day was pretty interesting cuz Janel came back from Shanghai. And I went to Hog's Breath for dinner. I think I blew a great big hole in my parent's wallet...oh well, I'll repay them if I have to.

And just after that, Jos and Janel are leaving for church camp for 3 days. Ah! Peace and quiet. And I went to shop for my CNY clothings. I bought a shirt, a jeans and a jacket for $170. And my dad didn't make a single noise about it. I guess he must have liked it too, hehe. Sneak fellow. I am not going to lend him my jacket. haha.

Well, I kept it brief cuz I gotta sleep. BBQ at Alex's house tomorrow, how cool is that. His house is gonna be packed with students haha...

ciaoz.

Christmas!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

It is the 25th of December!!! And the day Jesus was born into this earth to live and die amongst us humans to save us!!! And Santa is still not at my house this year. I guess his sleigh broke down...

Anyway, my eve celebrations was an less-than-expected explosive event.

It started with me meeting Nick Yue, Ke Li and Ms Tan at Chinatown Point for Nick's chemistry lesson. Then I finished up some of my blank notes via the copier method. Then after all was done, we rushed to take a cab to Jurong Point.We were going to catch the 12.15pm screening of National Treasure: Book of Secrets. But we got to Jurong Point at 12.15pm instead...but we managed to grab the tickets and get in just as the movie started. It was a great movie and it was 2.5 hours long. Well worth the money paid.Then I made my way back home through the MRT. I got home before 4pm as instructed. But my parents came home at 4.15pm...So much for lead by example. So all was being set up and preparations for the party were made. Then one by one, my relatives came over.

I felt horrible that all my relatives did was ask me about my A math. It was so much that I locked myself up in the room and refused to entertain anyone for a while. Then it was back to the party. I felt so left out even though people were talking to me. Like, I didn't belong to this place where celebrations were taking place. Then in a blink of an eye, it was over. So far my gifts carts has a ear-piece silicone set. And I don't even have ear-pieces to use them on. I kind of get the point that people ASSUME that all teenagers have an Ipod or MP3. WELL, I DON'T AND I AM WELL PISSED ENOUGH NOT HAVING IT WITHOUT YOU REMINDING ME WITH ACCESSORIES FOR IT, THANK YOU! Damn. *Saving for an Ipod Nano 3rd Gen*

Well, that kind of makes my Christmas kick off on the wrong foot. And chances are, I am not going to be able to enjoy my Christmas. I hate it. But I am still going to live with it. *Curses the entire mathematics department, especially the UGLY and ANOREXIC head-of-department.*

Horrible way to end a year. Screw it, I am not going to care anymore.

I hope everyone has a SMASHING and ROCKIN' Christmas. ^-^

Hollowed out.

It is 4 days till that long awaited test which everyone hates.

Today I had A math tuition at home in the morning from 11am-1pm. Then I headed out for Borders to buy a school bag. I originally wanted a Crumpler but settled for a Nike Allegiance Club SC Sling bag. Which costed me a $100 less then the Crumpler. Then I went walking round with my aunt and cousin in The Heeren. I swear 77th Street is cool. They've got these 'Singles Ring' which look quite alright...and has a code to the website so that you can link up to friends. Only problem is that $65 price tag. So then I sent my aunt and my cousins home, made my way back to my house and it is kinda a dull end to my outdoor activities. Now, to the indoors and A math. How brilliant.

Somehow I felt very empty. Like I lost that enthusiasm I had going on for me ever since that Julia Gabriels performance. Then again, maybe it is just conditions and things happening round me. I feel kind of down today...That's the reason for the post title. I feel hollow.

Alright. Time for A math. And I sincerely wish you all the Merry Christmas. For many joys to come.

Joy of Christmas?

Its been a while since the last post...not much has been happening.

Well today is probably to most interesting day of all, going to Trumpet Call with Joscelyn and all. But, no matter how positive they seem to be, one fact remains. I have an A math test on the day after Christmas and my spirit is not going to be lifted to the skies when such a weight is locking me to the ground. Anyway, to sum it up, I felt out of it all. Like I was watching people celebrate their Christmas instead of practising my math.

Kelleynne is finally back. God I missed her. Haha, still can't say: 'I told you so.' Oh well...

*Sigh* What a brilliant way to end the holidays, don't you agree?

Back to A math now I guess.

Chemistry is DONE!!!

Well, at least the holiday lessons. Covered quite a bit...not I got to get a new file to keep all the notes.

This holiday was the probably THE MOST productive one in the entire Secondary school life for me. Covered Chemistry revision and some sec 4 topics, with the additional fact that I am studying for A math. Hmm...and I made a movie for the golf people. But somehow I still feel so empty and useless.

Janel is gone for Shanghai, Kelleynne...I don't know already and I am stranded in SINGAPORE!!!

I wanna go overseas and see it snow for Christmas...*sigh* Got to wait till I am old enough, haha.

I feel stressed, tired, bored, miserable and panicky all at the same time. ALL THANKS TO THAT STUPID A MATH TEST ON 26TH DECEMBER 2007!!!!!!!! GO AND DIE!!!!!!!

Oh well, time to get on with life.

Inspirational Conjestion

Been having a hard time trying to work on my art. Especially since a majority of them end up in the trash bin or uncompleted.Seems like I'll just have to deal with it for now.

My life has been a mess for the pass few days. And it is frightening, thinking that it is only 10 days till my A math test and I still haven't mastered any of the basic Trigonometry or Indices, Surds and Logarithm formulas. And I don't want to drop A math. Got to practise as hard as hell. My academic future seems so bleak at the moment. 21 points...with that score I will be HELL LUCKY if I even get into polytechnic of ANY reputation. Let alone get into ACJC. *frustrated*

This Christmas is not going to be a peaceful event for me. That much is certain now...

Alright! Back to work on A Math!!!

Stamina wipe-out.

Yo everyone!! Its bit a while.

It is weird. Seems like staying at home all the time wipes out your stamina along with your activities. Anyway, today I woke up at 10 am. Wow, 10 am...an improvement from 10.30am-10.45am for the past week!

So, I came online and then Janel came online and we chatted a bit. Then Joscelyn SMSes me to go out. And of all places Junction 8. I was like all lazy and stuff, but then I convinced Janel to tag along and dragged my feet out of the house. It wasn't a great start to the trip, since it was wet and the path I usually use to get to the bus-stop was rigged with mud-traps. So by the time I got to the bus-stop, my shoes were basically smeared with mud, luckily they were brown originally. *Sigh of relief*. So it took me 15 mins to get to the MRT station because the bus came 10 mins after I got to the bus-stop. Then I was wondering which side would be faster if I wanted to get to Bishan from Commonwealth MRT station. It was great, while I was checking the train towards Pasir Ris arrived. And by the time I figured that it would be closer if I headed towards Pasir Ris and transfered to the North-South Line, the train had gone. So there went another 8 mins, waiting for the next train.

While on the train, Joscelyn SMSes me telling me her location and where Janel was. So it just happened that Joscelyn would be one stop behind me if I just transfered first and Janel was still at home. Then I offered to wait for Joscelyn at Cityhall Interchange and met her there. Being the usual Joscelyn, she walk right past me and continued running through the crowd to an open area,childish right? So we just took the train to Bishan. It is scary, how a number of people look at you as long as you are travelling in more than a single unit.

By the time we reached Bishan, it was 1 hour behind the originally planned time. So Joscelyn and I walked round Junction 8 a bit. Then we went to the arcade to play while waiting for Janel, or rather I went to the arcade to play. There, I spent $4. $2 on Outrun 2 and $2 on Silent Hill. I never knew I could draw a crowd, even though I suck like hell on arcade games. So then we headed down to Subway for lunch where I bought a footlong and Joscelyn just had to make my meal 'fun' -.-. It was doodle, doodle, doodle on Joscelyn's sketchbook in Subway. We had signatures, flowers, apples, manga, wordart...etc...on that little book. Then after about an hour, we left Subway and I bought a milkshake from McDonalds. It is probably the only thing in McDonalds which I like, and is safe to consume. So we walked around...went to Popular...went to the arcade again. I spent $4 again. Bought sweets and those good ol' honey-sticks, which are absolutely fabulous!! They are so nice,trust me, don't even try one. And all three of us headed home.

The trip back was...rather interesting. Apart from Joscelyn's occasional pointless actions and Janel's blur look (She was exhausted, I guess.), it was a pretty plain trip. So instead of taking the bus and walking in mud again, I decided to walk home frm the MRT station. At least the path was made out of concrete. And so I got home. Did some chores and came online again.

Then it was chatter, chatter and more chatter. Till my parents came home -.-. Don't you just hate it when you hear that tinkling of keys to indicated the arrival of authority? and trouble? So it was rush time! Ran round keeping clothes for my parents, cooked the rice, do this and do that. Then it was dinner!!

After dinner I came back online to find that Kelleynne was on. Second time, first was on Saturday. So we talked about her trip there and '鬥牛。要不要'. Haha, got to admit that I am hooked on that show too. Then I had to leave for math and she said she had to go meet her 'playboy'. Haha, so it was sayonara.

Then I had math with my cousin which went well. I ended up with Trigonometry homework + a need to do Qns 5 of every Reveiw practise for each chapter 1 - 11. By next tuesday and this friday respectively.

Oh well. Keeping myself busy!! Catch ya'll some other time. Till then, Chill.

Stuck.

Yo people!!

I've been messing about quite a bit the past few days. With nothing to do at home except math and sketching. It seems like I have lost my ability to draw for some reason. Maybe due to the sheer lack of talent and practise. Oh well.

Anyway, this post would be short since there is nothing much to talk about. So I'll make it quick.

I have been having problems trying to get this new weekend job my friend told me about but I will contact that guy on Monday. So everyone please bear with me for a little longer. I am in a dilemma about getting christmas presents...lol. EVERY YEAR IS THE SAME!! Oh well, I guess I'll pull everything through in the end.

That's about all I got for now. Hehe, a short post in a long while. Catch ya'll next time!!

Aimless.

Yo people! I've been keeping myself busy the past few days just to get my mind off a few things.

There is a storm of thoughts going on in my mind and to add to that I have people who keep reminding me of maths and 'O' levels. What does a guy have to do just to have a bit of time to sort out his thoughts? Anyway, it seems to me that I have nothing to look forward to in my life after education so far. Thing is, I have no idea what I am good at. Oh well...seems like I have to continue putting some thought into my future.

So, I had to babysit my cousins on Tuesday. So I had to stay over at my aunt's from Monday till Tuesday. It was an interesting experience being in authority over children. Not like it means anything since they are my cousins and generally don't listen to me at all. So I managed to watch 'Stardust' while surviving the onslaught of pillows and plushies they were throwing at eash other. And the day quickly zoomed by. I can't believe how exhausting it was to take care of those two kids. So I went out for dinner with them and my parents and came home. I nearly took to the sacks instantly. Not till I finished a few end-of-day activities.

Then had to go to school to help Ms Tan copy MCQ questions with Jeremy today. When I got there Jeremy was already done so I just keyed in all the answers into the computer for them. Was raining cats and dogs on my way home, and as if that was not bad enough, I didn't have an umbrella. So I ran in the...torrental falls. Yep, it has been 5 years since I ever got so badly drenched in rain. I was freezing in the bus and literally was shivering by the time I got home. AND I WAS EXPECTING A BLAZING HOT DAY!! So I just did a few usual chores, waited for dinner and chat on MSN...that is generally how my days go by now.

I am planning to take up a job offer as a Sales personnel. Thanks to Ian. Still haven't contacted the guy yet. Probably going to do it tomorrow.

Sigh...I wonder why everyone feels so distant to me now. Maybe it had been that way since a long time ago, just that I never noticed. I really miss Kelleynne. And now Joscelyn is sick too, hopes she gets better soon. Kenneth is not online that much anymore. No one is really talking anymore. Hmm...I am turning anti-social. That's not such a bad thing!! :]]

I really feel like taking a step out of society and education policies and look at the world at times. It makes me wonder, how would a system work if there was really no such thing as poverty? Isn't it true that we are 'fortunate' or 'well-off' only because of the sacrifices others make? The world is such a harsh place when money comes into the picture.

I gotta run now. Catch you all some other time when I am free. Ciaoz and have fun.
