Jamming at Sebastian's

This day started out to be not a good one, but turned out to be awesome. This morning, I had an appointment with my orthopaedic surgeon. The appointed time was 9.00am. I reached there slightly before, but the doctor only arrived at about 10:30am. Talk about... lateness. So I went inside, lied down on the bed and had my bandages and cast removed. Then the doctor came and asked me, "Terence, how is your hand?" in which I replied that I felt no more pain these past few days. Then he twisted my hand a few times and finally pressed the part with the crack. Ouch, okay, that hurt a lot. Clean bandages were used to wrap my hand again, and the support splint remained. He gave me some calcium pills and some nerve pills, and a bill for RM 120. Going to see him again next week too. He said that my wrist might be unusable till end of January. Talk about... bad luck.

At 11.30 am or so, Glenn came to pick me up to Sebastian's house. We reached Sebastian's house and immediately started playing... I helped him set up with blog a little. We printed many piano scores too... gave him a lot of homework, but as he says, "Time is all we have."

After that we had lunch courtesy of YDP Agong. It was delicious lunch, cooked by his grandmother, might I add. It was a pity that Diana was, apparently, vegetarian for the week. During lunch, Sebastian asked me, "So, did you go to Portuguese Settlement that day? To see the Agong?", in which I replied, "Why go there to see him with all the crowd, when I can come here to see him personally?"

Hahaha, it's really nice to "play" with him I guess. After that we continued playing music. Diana went back soon after; then Glenn went back too. Then, we started to record some songs we played... which can be found on my youtube channel. Well, all in all, it was a very fun day... though I wished I could use both my hands to play the drums.

Specifically, check these out

Jia En's Kiss the Rain
Jia En's Own Song

Tong Hua

I just got my Hazel!

So my left hand is quite usable again (to an extent). I will try to update as completely as possible.

This morning, woke up and went jogging with my parents for the first time in a long while. Then, I went to eat dim sum, wasn't really good for its price. Went back home and whiled away the time;

2pm I went to Jia En's house. Well, he gave me a pack of playing cards on NBA players (in Chinese). Then, we played some card games... then we played on his piano for a while. After that we went on his computer; showed him some songs and we played some games. All the while talking nonsense and stuff. I guess China isn't such a nice place after all.

At any rate, my parents picked me up to eat at 6pm, and went to DP. Bought some fruits at MBG fruits shop, my mom bought some Mix n Match fruit drink. It was really nice. Then I met up with Sophia, and we went to the SE shop to buy my Hazel.

And wow oh wow, isn't it a beauty. Stunning black front, polished white back, elegant slide, snaps back to its original position after closing, smooth, sexy, and so much more.

Well, obviously I thanked my parents and family for buying the Hazel for me (It was my birthday present), and also to Sophia for meeting me in person... went the extra mile for someone she hardly knew. Hahaha. And also, Catherine, who introduced me to Sophia...

Meet the Fockers

Went with Glenn and Keong today to watch the movie Little Fockers, or something like that. Er, mainly humourous, no -real- plot... some play on words. Nothing really great.

+first time I've gone out in a few days.

++Getting my Hazel Wednesday. Whee!

+++Nothing much to update.

My birthday

I guess this is worth a read.

Typing this with one hand, so I'll make it short.

I woke up at 8am today. There were a few messages on my phone. Went on facebook; lots of birthday wishes there too. There were a few, in particular, which almost brought me to tears. Slept the whole afternoon. Went for class party at night. Some idiotic buggers pushed me into the pool, into a pillar. I mean, what';s up with that? Couldn't choose a better place?

At any rate; I fractured my left wrist because of that. My bone cracked.

Well, we played in the pool; the goggles were lovely. The food was good too. Thanks to Joel and Zhong Wei; the cakes were delicious. They sang a birthday song for me too. I even got another present. We took a few photos together. I won Bernard in Dissidia.

Then I went to a hospital. Took a few X-ray shots; my left wrist was cracked. A doctor came by; bandaged my wrist and then applied a certain thing for support. All that set my father back for RM700. That's the price of a Hazel, man!

Now my left arm is kind of unusable. I had to postpone my driving; can't go basketball; can't go badminton; can't go swimming; can't go out jalan-jalan. Just stay at home, doing nothing for 3 weeks, or longer. I guess I'll do some light reading.

Tron Legacy, GBL Gym

Today; 10:30 am Glenn picked me up from my house and we went to Dataran. Met up with Keong and James there. Met the High-School gang too. At any rate, Glenn and Keong went to "fry chicken" at Shilin Street Snacks, and then they stuffed the hot, mouth-watering XXL crispy chicken (Now it's only an L chicken though) into Keong's bag and entered the cinema.

We watched Tron Legacy; though I guess it should have been called Flynn Legacy. At any rate; the movie was so-so, at the most, and really bad when compared to the more recent movies I've watched (Rapunzel, Inception, etc.) After that, we went for lunch at Mong Kok and had a big jug of Milk Tea for free, since it was within 3 days of my birthday. Then, we went walking to Gan Boon Leong's Gym, at the end, or starting, depending on how you looked at it, of Jonker Street. I was afraid they wouldn't let me in with sandals because Keong said that gyms normally imposed a rule of shoes only, but they let me in anyways. RM 5 only, too. There were almost a hundred fitness machines there... not to mention the many dumb bells and stuff like that.

We spent about 3 hours there; working out, talking, testing out the different machines, et cetera. Then I followed Keong back to his house, and saw the ending of FFVI. After that, my parents picked me up and we went to eat at the Food Court nearby. And oh boy, did I eat a lot. I ate one(1) nyonya popiah, one(1) fried oyster dish (the one with egg and flour), and one(1) pork chop rice with half(1/2) an egg, half(1/2) a tofu, some vegetables, and a glass of barley drink.

Then I went to my grandmother's house to talk to my cousins for a while and also to take a few things for the Tang Yuan festival thing.

And now, I'm going to re-watch Inception again (3rd time). Yahuu!

Ujian Undang-Undang (Is that what they call it?) and PC fair

Well, today I woke up at about.... 7am. Reached MSDC at about 9am... took my waiting card.. 062. When I asked the guy what number they were at now... he said 012... Ho crap.


At any rate, I sat around there, occasionally bothering Jia Lin from concentrating on her KPP per SMS, walking around, talking to the random dudes around there... stuff like that. 10am...11am...12am...

At about 1205 am, they called number 061. Ah well, I rushed down the meet up with Fan Kiat and Jia Lin for a brief moment. I showed them *Peace* and Jia Lin replied with *Peace* while Fan Kiat replied with *Nah!*. Yeah, welcome back, Fan Kiat. After that I rushed back in just as they called my number.

Exactly 13 minutes and 28 seconds later, I was walking out of the test room with a nice *Lulus* printed on a piece of paper. Yeah, *Peace*!

I hopped downwards a la Lady Boss but Jia Lin and Fan Kiat were nowhere to be found. My watched showed 12:33, but it was 10 minutes fast. I guess they didn't want to be late for their KPP. At any rate, I followed my father back--

-- and to the PC Expo at MITC. Well, some pretty tech stuff, though nothing really caught my interest. Suddenly, an arm grabbed mine and pulled me aside.

"Terence! Come, buy DiGi broadband," Zi Hong said. Ah, what the heck. Zi Hong and Wei Chee were working there. I (humbly) pushed them aside and followed my father around the whole area. In the end, I bought an 8gb Kingston flash drive... don't know what happened to my other one.

After that, we sat down in a stall outside an ate some chicken rice. Not too shabby, but not very good either.

Then I reached home....... and so ends the events of my day.

(My) Early surprise birthday party

Jasmine and Jia Lin and Vincent and Isaiah and Caleb and Glenn and Keong and Jia En and Me.


On Monday; I had told Jasmine that I'd plan something for all of us on Thursday, since Isaiah would be going off to Penang for the rest of the year.

Later that week, Isaiah sent me a message saying he would do something on Thursday, with "the usual gang". Well, if he was going to organize it then I'd leave it up to him... he was better at such stuff anyways.

So on that fated day, Isaiah gave me a call,

"Hey, Foo! Remember to dress nicely ah!"
"Sure... but why are you telling me that? I always dress nicely when I go out. Hahaha."
"Who knows... you are liable to do something stupid."
"...."
"Just joking. Anyways, dress nicely!"
"Alright alright."

Later that evening; Isaiah, Caleb and I arrived at Jusco at about slightly past 6.45pm... met up with Keong and then later with Jia En and Vincent. Shortly after, we were joined by Jia Lin and Jasmine. So the time was about 7pm, by then.

Isaiah: Foo, where you wanna eat? Faster decide.
Terence: What? Why do I have to decide...what does everyone else say?
Isaiah: Don't talk so much lah, just decide faster. Quick, don't waste my time!
Jasmine: Terence, we're here for your birthday. So you are the one who will choose where we will eat at.
Terence: Huh? My birthday? What?

I was a bit shocked. No, I was very shocked. Nobody told me anything about that. I dallied a little while longer, shirking away my responsibilities(?) by walking around the place until finally...

Lady Boss: Terence, I'm hungry, so you better choose a place to eat at now (or else...)

Ah well. I finally made the decision of eating at Papa John's pizza (my first choice was turned down by me because it was too freaking expensive). Well, the food was what you might've expected from Papa John's. Though, I was a bit disappointed at the portions. Well, everything's expensive nowadays. Might I also add that I regretted taking a bite out of their pickled chili (it was hotter than I expected).

At any rate, after the meal, we went walking around (its what we do best) the bigger Jusco. I crashed the arcade there for a while ( used RM1 for DDR) and after that continued to walk around (totally covered in sweat). Then, the two ladies went to look at clothes for a while (maybe I should have joined them) while the guys went to look at some games. Ah well, the PS2 has become obsolete already, what a waste.

At any rate, we(the guys) went to look for Jasmine and Jia Lin after we finished what we wanted to do. So we entered a Padini Concept store (the one that they were entering at first). While we were there, Vincent wanted to show me a transvestite working there. Well, nothing really.... interesting to see. She(?) looked like any other girl, though I didn't try talking to her. At any rate, we searched around the store for a bit, but they were nowhere to be found, so we went to the store beside it, can't remember it's name. Something Outlet? We searched there too, but we couldn't fine them anywhere. I wanted to give them a ring via a phone call, but then again, walking around to look for them was fine too. Coincidentally, just as we walked out of the Something Outlet ( I think it was Brands outlet) I saw them walking out of the Padini store earlier. Well, they said they were in there the whole time. At this point, Isaiah said something which, I believe, was insulting them, but Ha-Ha-Ha.


After that we sat down on the bench outside there and took a few photographs together.

Caleb was taking the shot. Wait, why do I look so short? Oh, right. I'm leaning forwards.

Then, they asked me to open the gift they got for me.


My gift of a pair of goggles. Really nice ones, too. I guess I've no choice but to go swimming again soon. Keong went back after that.

At any rate; we sat there for a while and talked... then we went to get more food at... Old town. Glenn and I ordered some hot honey lemon drink, wasn't too bad. Vincent ordered a cold version of that drink. Jasmine ordered Enriched Hot Chocolate, which was essentially Milo, according to Jia Lin. His and Her Highness also shared some toast together. So we whiled away the time there and the clock slowly ticked till 10pm. Vincent and Jia En went back then. So, Jia Lin, Jasmine, guarded by Isaiah and Caleb and followed by Glenn and I went walking around near the exits, since we were heading back soon. I followed Isaiah and Caleb back, while Glenn followed Jasmine and Jia Lin. You know, at the end of the day, I honestly believed that it was my birthday, that day. I had planned on doing something on the 22nd, with the exact same group of people. But I guess we all have our schedules. Bringing the date forward was a good idea. After all, who knows when we might have the chance to go out together again like this?





This part might be rather emotional.

There has been too many times... too many times when I only really started to appreciate something when that something is about to be lost. Once when I was 12 years old, once more when I was 16... and one more time this year. I really, really, hope that I am able to prevent myself from regretting twice this year...but how can I do that? No matter what I can think of doing, I still feel that, somehow, I will regret not doing more...

Kursus KPP, Jusco

Woke up 6.30am today; only my dad and I at home now since all my other family members went for a holiday to Siem Reap... I didn't want to go because I wanted to hang out with my friends more, I guess.

Today I had to listen to a talk on driving safely. I -quite- enjoyed it, I don't know why everyone else said it was sooooooo boring. I particularly liked this part:

Kalau you tak tahu, you kena ambik tahu.
Kalau you tahu, you kena bagi tahu.

Really meaningful, I think. I did enjoy listening to his stories. I also saw Jasmine on the way to the hall. She was busy on her phone; so I didn't bother bothering her bothering the other person on the other end of the line. *ba dum dish!*

Then we had a short break(about 25 minutes), at about 12pm. So I bought some wafers, biscuits, and a carrot with mixed fruit drink(I love that). After eating my chewable food, I started sipping on my juice while talking with Wei Siang, when suddenly...

"I PASSED! ! !" and a blur of pink suddenly occupied my vision. It was only about a second later did I register a smiling face of Jasmine in front on me. I got a feeling she jumped, or maybe hopped, there. Luckily for her, I had already drunk finished my juice, else I might have just spit it out in shock. Well, congratulations and celebrations! We talked for a while, I guess, but since it was almost time I entered the hall again, I bid her farewell and continued on my lecture(?).

And I'm going to go for basketball later... most probably. Cheers, it wasn't such a boring day after all! Scratch that, basketball was canceled when I already reached there... what a pain.

At any rate, I went to Jusco(old) with my father today; and the first thing I did was, of course, crash the DDR machine at the arcade. I changed RM 1... went to the machine and waited for my turn. There was a girl playing; she was pretty good. Accompanied by her two sisters and a younger brother, she finished her turn and wanted to continue with a second round (much to my dismay). Her elder sister, I think, saw me waiting there and kinda asked her to get off and you know what happened next? She stepped off the machine like a good girl and suddenly showed the universal sign; the middle finger at her sister and walked off. I was stunned. Well, the elder sister did something like a light bow, which I returned with a 'thanks', and had my turn... needless to say I chose harder songs than usual. It's really, really tiring, yet so, so fun!

After that, I met up with my father again and we went for dinner. I had some lousy food; some "specialty dish". "Specialty" my foot. It was a horrible waste of RM 5.90. Salt, more salt, oil, and some weird things. Ugh, let's not talk about that.

After that, my dad and I went to shop for some clothes (for me). I bought 2 shirts, which caught my attention, at an unbelievably high price... regrettably. Then, as I was somewhat happy for the night and suggested that we head back, I saw a pair of shorts that caught my attention too. Well, they weren't really shorts, per se, since it past my knees.

I wanted to buy a pair of cargo pants, but they were really freakingly expensive. So, after much internal conflict and, despite my father's encouragement, I decided not to buy them.

So this ends my -somewhat- eventful day. Cheers!


PS:/ Did I mention; my mother took our shared Nokia mobile phone charger... so now my phone's left with 1 bar of battery life and it's supposed to last me till saturday. Pretty cool, eh? If I don't reply to your messages, you know why...

The Social Network

I guess it was pretty interesting, minus a few "ugly" scenes here and there. Maybe I'm too old fashioned in thinking.

Today, went out jalan-jalan with:

1. Glenn
2. Thim Seng
3. Jia En
4. Vincent
5. Jasmine
6. Jia Lin
7. Catherine
8. Sophia
9. Joyce(?)

And then met up with:
10. Matthew
11. Garrett
12. Kia Meng
13. Jowayne

So, the first group went to watch The Social Network, a +- 2 hour long movie. After the movie, the group split up into guys // girls. At 6pm, Vincent and Jasmine went to watch Rapunzel (hardy people), while Glenn, Garrett, Kia Meng and I went bowling. (I got highest score!)

After that, I separated from them and met up with Sophia, Jia Lin and Catherine... then I went with Sophia to buy a Hazel; it was out of stock.

I'm going there tomorrow to buy it.... waited too long.

Swimming and badminton

Woke up 6.30am today... left for swimming ( forgot to bring some mineral water). Picked up Xiang Ming and Isaiah and Caleb... then headed for AKCC. Then Glenn came.

I really couldn't swim at all. :(


Then immediately after that, Glenn and I went for badminton with Thim Seng and co. , Hon Mun and Jia En. Didn't really have much energy to play much...

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your golden hair!

I just watched Rapunzel today. It was Awesome, Awesome, Awesome.

Everyone should watch it, adults and children alike. Seriously.

pianists, drummers,singers(?), saxophonist, trombonist

What do you get when you mix all of the above together?

A totally awesome jamming session

Yesterday night, got a call from Glenn:

"What time you going 'Bastian's house tomorrow?"
"Err, about 7am."
"Why so early? Go there shake leg?"
"I want go jogging with him lah... after that play piano."
"Ok ok. Here's the plan. You follow the plan, everything will be ok. You just have to listen to me. Tomorrow, 7.15am I'll drop by your house, then Diana will follow you to his house after that."
"Sure, ok. I thought you're going also?"
"I'm not. Going swimming later."
"Ah, ok ok. Bye"

Sleep.

Next morning, 6.30a.m... I guess I got up a little early since I was so excited.

Bathed, changed, pack my bag, was only 6.50am. Went online a while, then Glenn smsed me, saying that he'd be there in about 10 mins.

They arrived, then Glenn dropped Diana and drove off, so Diana and I went to Sebastian's house (arrived about 7.15am).

At the gate: Sebastian was sitting down there...

He joined us then we walked to his house... quite some distance away from the gate. I was almost about to suggest that as our morning walk, but nevermind, we went for a jog after that after I put my stuff in his house.

After jogging, we started playing on an upright piano. Beautiful, beautiful music filled my ears. Seriously, those things on youtube, sure, they're good and all, but they can't be compared to seeing awesome piano playing with your own eyes. And then OH CRAP! I forgot to bring my camera!

Then I took a shower, brr, freaking cold because I didn't know how to operate the hot water heater. After that Sebastian and I shifted his drum set and placed it beside the grand piano. So, we ate some spaghetti, courtesy of YDP Agong.

After that, Mr Khoo Jia En came along... so we've got 3 pianists in the house... more beautiful music bathed my mind. So they started talking about things about piano stuffs, I guess, maybe. Then Sebastian's brother, Kenneth, came down and accompanied the piano with drums.

I don't know how to describe what happened after that. Piano, Drums, Saxophone, Trombone. We were graced by Wei Qi and Matthew after that. So, we played awesome music together, even though it was our first time I think it was very well done.


Sadly, I had to go back early else I'd be taking advantage of Sebastian's kindness. I left at 3pm. Diana and Matthew followed me back. I intro-ed Matthew to Modern Warfare 2. He was awestruck. They went back soon after that though, and boy, I'm beat; really tired. That's all from me! I'll be sure to bring my camera with me next time!

Last day of SPM and movies

Bio finished, returned books, went for movies, tired now. Planned to play games tonight, but I guess not. I'm too tired.

8th day of SPM

Chemistry chemistry chemistry

One last hurdle to go through...

7th Day of SPM

Physics was quite crappy to what I've normally done. Crappy in a sense that I liked doing calculations more than a History-esque paper. Meeeh!

HAHAHAHA, exam from 8-3.30pm, then I went to Isaiah's house to BASKETBALL FOR 2 HOURS. WHOOOO

Sixth day of SPM

I guess Maths just got an... added value.

YEAAAAAHHHH.

Fifth day of SPM

Moral... didn't make my morale increase.

I wonder what's wrong with me lately. I really can't sleep well at night, don't really have much appetite anymore. My mind's busy with a lot of things. What things? I don't really know. Maybe the correct question should be 'Why'. Hah! Not going to think too much about it.

Meh, I really doubt that though. Must be stress from exams.

AHHHHHHHHHHHH

Fourth day of SPM?

Don't you come and Maths with me now.

Third day of SPM

Sejarah? What?

2nd day of SPM

Hahaha, congratulations to those who looked at our blog; You're coincidentally lucky.

First day of SPM

Today was the first day of SPM: Bahasa Malaysia*. I won't talk too much about it. When I came back after the first paper though, I learnt Elinia. HAHA.

*People say Bahasa Melayu, but if you really want to "memupuk perpaduan" I'll keep referring to it as Bahasa Malaysia.

PS:// SHITTTT YOUUUU

It all started when my friends and I decided to organize a get-together at a hill resort during the school holidays. We met up at the state’s bus station and got on the bus that we chartered to take us to our destination early in the morning. The journey there, which took about 3 hours or so, was uneventful as nothing particularly interesting happened. When we arrived, the first thing we did was check into a hotel and dropped off our luggage there. My friends, being the thrill seekers that they were, immediately ran to the outdoor theme park and sat on some of the rides there. As for me, I sat out of most of the attractions as I wasn’t too fond of such things. I opted to sit near the roller coasters that my friends sat on instead and followed them around. They were not very happy about this, or maybe they just felt bad because I wasn’t joining them in their fun. So, they asked me to at least join them in a, supposedly, kiddy ride, a very mild ride that they assured I would enjoy. Since I too felt bad for not indulging in their wants for the whole trip so far, I hesitantly agreed and they quickly pulled me over to where the ride was. They brought me into a dimly lit tunnel where I could barely make out the last half of the words on a signboard which read, “… Mine Train”.

The queue for that particular ride was longer than any I’ve seen before. While waiting for our turn, my friends and I talked amongst ourselves about anything that came to our minds. It’s really easy, being friends and all. The words just come naturally. However, this time, I felt as if the conversation was artificial and I was further convinced of this when I noticed that my friends were exchanging glances from time to time and refused to meet my gaze. My attention was drawn away from them when I heard some screams in the distance. I expressed my concern about the screams to my friends but they only said it was a normal thing, that “everyone screams in a roller coaster ride”. At that particular moment, I just felt like walking away from them because I caught on to what they were planning, yet I couldn’t make my escape because we were surrounded by a lot of people and I couldn’t push through them.

About 10 minutes later, it was almost our turn to get on the ride. All the screaming made the waiting so much worse. In fact, I had already become a nervous wreck long before I could see the carriages of the roller coaster. I had the urge to make a beeline to the exit gate since it was only a railing away and I could easily jump over it but my friends knew me all too well; they had long since grabbed both my arms and prevented me from running away. I struggled in vain as they continued to maintain a vice-like grip on my arms and dragged me, against my will, to the ride. They forced me down on a seat and made sure I stayed there by strapping me in tightly. As a second line of defence, one of my friends even sat down beside me to make sure I didn’t escape… or maybe they were just afraid I might do something crazy. Whatever the reason, it made me feel slightly safer, to have someone I know sitting beside me.

The sound of metal gears clinking against each other indicated that the ride was going to move. We ascended right out of the tunnel, and only then did I realize just how high up we were. Did I mention I was acrophobic? By the time we reached the apex of the roller coaster, I was already white-faced and shaking all over. Ironically, I cursed myself for trusting my friends earlier and for not running away while I still could. As if to emphasize my despair, the ride stopped for a moment so I could only helplessly stare downwards from where I was.

Some people say that, just before dying, we are able to see our most cherished memories again. As time seemed to stop at the turning point of the roller coaster, I could practically see all the images of me in the past. I saw myself, aged four, playing a computer for the first time. Then, there was me again, eating a chicken chop all on my own. Finally, I saw myself with my friends, all of us wearing coats with ties in another country, smiling from ear to ear. Sadly, I was not able to fully enjoy those recollections of myself as we plunged, almost vertically downwards, at very alarming speeds.

The very first thing I did was close my eyes and grip the bar in front of my seat with all my might. However, I felt dizzy with my eyes closed and was forced to open them within a few seconds of their closing. Then, I saw the most amazing sight. My friends in front of me raised their arms in the air and were laughing like jackals and were facing me, as if they were not even on a roller coaster. Heck, they were even talking like normal to each other while I was holding on to my dear life. I was pretty sure they were trying to tell me something, but I just couldn’t stand it anymore. I started to scream at the top of my lungs. Even I was surprised that I could shout so loudly. I screamed, I bawled, I yelled, I screeched, I shrieked, I yodeled, and I did anything else that the English language had that was a synonym of ‘shout’. I was taken for the ride of my life, in every literal manner.

I wasn’t sure what really happened on the roller coaster. I closed my eyes sometimes, and when they weren’t closed, I was screaming my lungs out till they were. In fact, I was probably the only person screaming as everyone else was too shocked to scream themselves. The ride brought me up, down, left, right, circles, loops, and more. All this while, my friends in front of me had their hands raised and were laughing their hearts out, probably because of me. Their bodies swayed according to the motion of the carriage, left, right, left, right, but they didn’t seem to care.

It felt as if an eon had passed, but the ride finally ended when it slowed down and I couldn’t scream any longer. Although it only took a few minutes, maybe even less, I believed that the sound energy I produced within that time frame was bigger in magnitude than what I had released in the past few months. When the ride finally stopped, everyone got out except for me. My hands, cold and clammy, were glued to the safety bar in front of me and refused to listen to my brain. My friend who sat beside me had to pry my hand off the bar finger-by-finger and even so, I still couldn’t get out properly. My legs were shaking and I had trouble standing up. I was sure that, after seeing how shaken I was, I saw a few other would-be passengers simply walking away to the exit gate instead of sitting on the ride that they queued up for for more than 10 minutes. I didn’t go on anymore thrill rides after that one. I merely sat nearby and enjoyed the weather.

After it was all said and done, however, I think that that was a good experience overall. Some of my friends repeatedly apologized to me, while some of them continued to poke fun at me even until now. In all actuality, even I can just laugh it off. Maybe, just maybe, I could muster the confidence to sit that kind of ride another time when we plan another get-together. Regardless, I am glad that I did do something interesting there and I’m sure that that memory will stick with us for a long time to come.

Words of Encouragement.

The world moves, whether you're moving or not.
Therefore, even if you do move, but if it's slower than the world, than you are lagging behind.
Even so, moving slowly is better than not moving at all.
So, don't leave work half done; Late work is always better than incomplete work.
However, being late is still inappropriate.
A heartfelt apology is often required, even if you do not speak it audibly.

Kind words have their own ways to find a place in the hearts of others.
If you feel poor right now, go out of your way for once to make another person's life rich.
Generally, you feel good when the people around you feel good too.
Therefore, when your life is bare, make others' lives bountiful, and yours will be too.

Just a bit of encouragement to myself.

Morning Jog(?)

This morning I decided to jog with my friends, Glenn, JiaLin, and Jasmine. Woke up at 6.30a.m. by Isaiah's phone call, then went to check my mobile phone and there were like 12 miss calls and 5 messages. That's what you get for going to bed at 10pm. Left home at 7am, reached PETRONAS Ujong Pasir at 7.15a.m. Waited a few minutes for Glenn; then saw him running like s__h__i. Hahaha. JiaLin was behind him, she said Jasmine would take another 10 minutes since she just woke up.

Walked to Jasmine's house; saw a dog at the front door. It started barking at us, sadly. While waiting, Glenn, JiaLin and I started talking about some stuff, nothing much really.

"Need to wear make up? Don't worry la, Vincent is not here."

And some other stuff, maybe it isn't so appropriate to post here.Annnyways....

So Jasmine and her brother, James, joined us and we walked (NOTE: Did NOT jog) some distance before taking a brief (<1 minute) jog and then continued walking again. Well, there was a high tide at Portuguese Settlement, quite interesting-- And I realized that the Lady Boss is quite the hyperactive person. Walked to the jetty, spent some time there by playing at the playground. I felt like a small kid, for a moment, and I couldn't even carry myself over the monkey bars. Joked some more before walking back (Sent James home, because he had piano lessons) and going for breakfast. Well, not surprisingly, I saw my parents there too and their shocked(?) faces.

"I thought you're going with Glenn only?"

Well, at least they already knew JiaLin and Jasmine before this, so nothing interesting happened (And I thought I could joke with my parents a while). Well, that wraps up my morning today.

Forgot something interesting:

I ordered a Hot Barley drink (It was really hot), then I ate my meal. After that, the barley drink was still really really hot; so I asked the waitress for a straw. When she gave me the straw, she also gave me a cup full of ice, gotta thank her for that. Anyways, she poked fun at me saying, "Haah, tadi order barli panas. (Earlier ordered hot barley drink) "
Then I said, "Aa, itu barli sedikit terlalu panas (That barley drink was a bit too hot)"

Direct translation? Haha.

Sighhhh

Genting Trip 2010

Melancholy strikes again

Why do you always treat me so nicely;
When you know I'll take it the wrong way?
I am a lonesome teenage boy
...with only so much to say.

For I am shy, quiet, and an introvert;
I'm sure you already know.
I may not be able to take your heart away;
but I assure you my heart has already been swayed.

...By your laughter, your smile, your small gestures;
all these things that make you you.
And whats more than that;
they are what draws me to you.

I curse myself for being me;
so quiet and so shy.
Yet I long so hard to break
this lonesome shell of mine.

It's not the first time I've had this feeling
but now it's stronger than before.

"It can't be helped, it can't be helped,
You're only a teenage boy;
who has never tasted the joy of love
nor drank from the clouds above.

You should be thankful, too,
for love comes at a price.
You'll never have to taste
the bitterness of goodbyes."

Alas! I long to forget this feeling
of this broken heart of mine
and continue to live forevermore
in this sad, sad state of recline.

Cool!

Hann Suk: terence never and will never act good.. he himself is good already! u noe why? although sometimes he likes talking crap but if u ask for help or anything, he sure will help u. GUARANTEE one!

Biology

Lets see if what I studied earlier today stayed inside or not.

Upper layer of a leaf's epidermis is thin and transparent to allow light to reach the palisade mesophyll cells. The palisade mesophyll cells are arranged upright and are found in large numbers right below the upper epidermis of the leaf for maximum light absorption. Palisade mesophyll cells have a lot of chloroplast. Right below are the spongy mesopyll cells. The spongy mesophyll cells are loosely placed and there are large air spaces in between the cells. This allows the palisade mesophyll cells to be constantly surrounded by air so that photosynthesis can take place. Below the spongy mesophyll cells are the guard cells, stomata and lower epidermis. Guard cells control the opening and closing of the stomata to allow air to diffuse into the leaf. They regulate the rate of transpiration of a plant. Stomata are small pores in a leaf, usually located at the lower epidermis for land plants, and all around the plants in submerged plants.

Basketball Memories

Results improved, postion dropped?

There's nothing to deny that my results are steadily(?) getting better. Yet, at the same time, my position in class is slowly dropping. I guess I'm improving, but not improving fast enough.

101010 day was a lot of fun

Basketball movie, although I feel that today I was underperformed(ahem). Nothing much else really happened. For more info, check my facebook profile

www.facebook.com/faeye

I know whats the best super power to have now

I just had a dream where I had the power to relive the past based on pictures. Damn, one of the best dreams I had in a while.

Hard Work is Directly proportional to Results?

As we all know, I love physics and mathematics very much. That is, until I encounter a question I can't solve and wreck my brain finding a solution.

Work done= force x distance travelled in direction of force.
= lost in energy (potential, elastic, kinetic, heat, and so on)


Hence, we can conclude that;
More work is done when you put more effort(force) or When you travel a further distance in the direction of the force however No work is done if there is no distance travelled.

If you look at this in a more English-y way,
It requires more effort (hard work) to go further in (life?). However, it is useless if we keep working hard and not go anywhere, because all our efforts will be in vain. Therefore, we should not do something which requires a lot of effort but gives little in terms of results. That means that, even if you put in a lot of force(effort), it is almost the same as doing nothing(no work is done), because as "distance travelled in direction of motion tends to 0, amount of work done also tends to 0".

Based on the second equation,
The more work is done, the more energy is lost (converted to a different form)
Hard work requires a lot of energy. To get work done, energy must be lost in one form and increased in another. The principal of conservation of energy states that, "Energy can neither be created nor destroyed".

In a more literary way,
The more "physical" energy we lose, the more we gain in another area. For example, when we lose chemical energy(by working), we gain skills or knowledge (work done). The more work is done, the more energy is lost.

Where am I going? I don't know. I guess I'm just ranting.

3 days in a row? Too much

My arms and legs hurt... and I shouldn't have DDR'ed yesterday. Too much, too much.

Karaoke

School today, nothing much happened. First day after trials finished, so most of the teachers just let us do what we wanted and we wallowed the day away. During PJK period, I played hand ball. I think the weeks of playing basketball is really starting to show, you know. I don't feel tired anymore.

After school, Thim Seng's birthday today; So Jia En and I treated him to some karaoke. And seriously, we sang and sang and sang.

Halfway Thru; Isaiah and Maverlyn suddenly popped out and joined us for a brief(< 1 minute) moment. Then, just as she sat down...

Lady(in chinese): Miss, you can't enter with a school uniform...

HAHAHAHA.

After karaoke session, I bought a pair of headphones (Sonic Gear, RM 39, sexy shape).

Then went back, rested a while, then went for basketball.

Tomorrow morning going for basketball again

Sunday evening going for basketball again. !!!

1/2 Prince

It's a really interesting read.

"½ Prince is a series of Chinese novels written by Yu Wo (御我), spanning eight volumes. A manhua adaptation is currently being serialized in the Dragon Youth Comic magazine, drawn by Cai Hong Zhong (蔡鸿忠), with six volumes published thus far. There is also a sequel to the original novel (spanning one volume) and a short story crossover between ½ Prince and Won’t Kill, another of Yu Wo’s novels. There is currently no official English translation of the novels or manhua."

You should check it out. You can read the manga at MangaFox, but I prefer the novel

http://halfprince.wordpress.com/

Give it a read, I'm sure it's enjoyable.

Yahoo

R.I.P.

Really akward day

HAHAHAHAHAHA, I guess I won't be going out with anyone again anytime soon.

Trials

Just around the corner.
I guess I should have studied more.
But now I'm doing what I do best-- last minute stuff.
Good luck to everyone.

My e-mail

I should probably change it.

A little bit of History

I was born into a Baba-Nyonya family, otherwise known as Peranakan family. As a child, I never understood how lucky I was to be a part of such a family, being able to enjoy both the cultures and cuisines of Malays and Chinese. You see, the Peranakan community has been in Malaysia since the 15th century, and originally immigrated from China. We have assimilated many customs in the Nusantara (Malaysia and Indonesia) and have become part of the local communities. As such, many of our customs are based on Malay and Chinese origins. The cuisines, for one, uses many spices found only in this region.

The language that the Baba-Nyonya community uses is far different from the normal, accepted, from-the-book Malay. Sadly, I never really understood it and thus never really learnt it. It is a dying language, and its contemporary use is mainly limited to members of the older generation. A mix of English-Malay has now replaced this as the main language spoken amongst the younger generation, with English being more widely used and a few Malay words slotted in between.

Touching on clothing style, there isn't a distinct attire for the Babas(Men) to wear. However, the Nyonyas'(Women) clothes is very similiar to the Native Malays. For example, their clothing consists of a long dress, a batik skirt, gold brooches and beaded slippers.

My favourite part, the food. Many of the Baba-Nyonya foods are based around Chinese cooking techniques and Malay ingredients. As such, most of the foods are generally spicy and uses many herbs. Ingredients such as coconut milk, laksa leaves, pandan leaves, belacan(belachan), tamarind juice, lemongrass, ginger, star anises, cinnamon sticks and so on. Another special ingredient is the cincaluk; a special species of small prawns with a very, very strong taste and smell. Many Nyonya dishes take a long time to prepare, and as such taste the best when served at home. You can't say you've tried proper Nyonya food like Buah Keluak, Pong teh, Babi masak cuka, babi asam, itek tim, and so on until you've actually been to a Baba-Nyonya family and eaten at their house. Those stuff at the shops? Poor, poor renditions with profit in mind, cutting costs and corners while also cutting the taste. Many tourists have been cheated, actually, into eating these second grade dishes and leaving to think they've actually tasted the real Baba-Nyonya specialities. I'm very lucky, because both my mother and my grandmother are masters at Baba-Nyonya dishes, and I've grown up with such dishes as an almost everyday thing. The thousands of tastes that the cuisines have make me always want to eat more, and whenever there's some curry around, oh boy, the rice just won't be enough.

All good things come to an end, though. The Peranakan culture is slowly dying out with marriages between the Peranakan and mainstream Chinese or Malay becoming more and more common. Many of the younger generation Peranakans do not learn to speak Baba-Nyonya Malay anymore and thus also do not carry out various cultural rituals mainly due to government policies such as "Malay as the National Language" in Malaysia, and since Peranakans are considered as Chinese politically, the Mother Tongue Policy in Singapore also contributes to the dilution of this culture. But who am I to blame? I, as a pure Baba, have not put in any effort at all to carry on this colourful culture to the next generation.

Another day spent not studying

Damn it all...

Tuesday, 7th September, 2010

Woke up this morning, finished a whole box of Coco Crunch and Honey Stars...
then went for extra class, nothing really much. After that, went back home while *ahem* went to watch piranha...hahaha.

"I'll sit here, she'll sit here, then they will sit here and here... and finally you'll sit here. HAHAHA"

I'll tumbuk you man, one day...

Then went back home... slept, then I was like, oh shat! Overslept! Supposed to go to Isaiah's house at about 2pm, in the end reached about 4.10p.m.. Played basketball from 5 to 6.30 p.m. or so... haha, really fun.

Now I'm very tired, don't know if I can get some studying in before I turn in for the night. I guess I really should study more...

I feel great!

Basketball; I took a few shots in the game today... I made 3 shots man! I feel awesome!

Glenn is a really cool guy

"You, drive? I can't even see your head!"

Please Hear what I am not saying.

Don't be fooled by me.

Don't be fooled by the face I wear

for I wear a mask, a thousand masks,

masks that I'm afraid to take off,

and none of them is me.

Pretending is an art that's second nature with me,

but don't be fooled,

for God's sake don't be fooled.

I give you the impression that I'm secure,

that all is sunny and unruffled with me, within as well

as without,

that confidence is my name and coolness my game,

that the water's calm and I'm in command

and that I need no one,

but don't believe me.

My surface may seem smooth but my surface is my mask,

ever-varying and ever-concealing.

Beneath lies no complacence.

Beneath lies confusion, and fear, and aloneness.

But I hide this. I don't want anybody to know it.

I panic at the thought of my weakness exposed.

That's why I frantically create a mask to hide behind,

a nonchalant sophisticated facade,

to help me pretend,

to shield me from the glance that knows.

But such a glance is precisely my salvation, my only hope,

and I know it.

That is, if it's followed by acceptance,

if it's followed by love.

It's the only thing that can liberate me from myself,

from my own self-built prison walls,

from the barriers I so painstakingly erect.

It's the only thing that will assure me

of what I can't assure myself,

that I'm really worth something.

But I don't tell you this. I don't dare to, I'm afraid to.

I'm afraid your glance will not be followed by acceptance,

will not be followed by love.

I'm afraid you'll think less of me,

that you'll laugh, and your laugh would kill me.

I'm afraid that deep-down I'm nothing

and that you will see this and reject me.

So I play my game, my desperate pretending game,

with a facade of assurance without

and a trembling child within.

So begins the glittering but empty parade of masks,

and my life becomes a front.

I idly chatter to you in the suave tones of surface talk.

I tell you everything that's really nothing,

and nothing of what's everything,

of what's crying within me.

So when I'm going through my routine

do not be fooled by what I'm saying.

Please listen carefully and try to hear what I'm not saying,

what I'd like to be able to say,

what for survival I need to say,

but what I can't say.

I don't like hiding.

I don't like playing superficial phony games.

I want to stop playing them.

I want to be genuine and spontaneous and me

but you've got to help me.

You've got to hold out your hand

even when that's the last thing I seem to want.

Only you can wipe away from my eyes

the blank stare of the breathing dead.

Only you can call me into aliveness.

Each time you're kind, and gentle, and encouraging,

each time you try to understand because you really care,

my heart begins to grow wings--

very small wings,

very feeble wings,

but wings!

With your power to touch me into feeling

you can breathe life into me.

I want you to know that.

I want you to know how important you are to me,

how you can be a creator--an honest-to-God creator--

of the person that is me

if you choose to.

You alone can break down the wall behind which I tremble,

you alone can remove my mask,

you alone can release me from my shadow-world of panic,

from my lonely prison,

if you choose to.

Please choose to.

Do not pass me by.

It will not be easy for you.

A long conviction of worthlessness builds strong walls.

The nearer you approach to me

the blinder I may strike back.

It's irrational, but despite what the books say about man

often I am irrational.

I fight against the very thing I cry out for.

But I am told that love is stronger than strong walls

and in this lies my hope.

Please try to beat down those walls

with firm hands but with gentle hands

for a child is very sensitive.

Who am I, you may wonder?

I am someone you know very well.

For I am every man you meet

and I am every woman you meet.

Studying

Have I been studying? Well, yes, you could say that I have. Have I studied a lot already? Maybe. Enough? Never.

CrossCountry

I ran the Cross-Country today. Actually, I've been running it for the past 4 years but this year I decided to put more effort. I've been jogging almost every day, exercising and stuff so that maybe I could've placed in the top 20s. Sad to say, I was sick this whole week, and it didn't get any better today. Coughing as I ran, I had to stop umpteen times to catch my breath. My sides ached as I slowed down from a run to a jog, then to a walk. I just couldn't run, not in the condition that I am in. Still, I forced myself, and somehow, I managed to jog again, and that kept me going till the finishing line. Although I wasn't in the top 20s, I was satisfied because I was definitely in the top 30s. Sadly, there won't be a next time for me to complete this cross-country run again. Never again.

A promise to be kept till after SPM.

Baldness Level 3

25/7/10... I'm now bald. Level 3 bald-ness. My head suddenly feels much lighter. I wonder how everyone will react...

Quotes from me...

From oldest to most recent...

"Even if we each go to our own places we are friends, no questions needed. The grounds filled with dirt and dust where we competed on, the uniforms we never wore properly, the scribbles we wrote on top of the desks... All of this were proof that we existed together. Let's meet here again... From the thousands of schools It was a Miracle which brought us together!" 20/11/09

"Everybody's like "New year!" this or "Resolutions!" that, but me, Its more like "Holidays, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" 30/11/09

"You are sarcastic, rude and an all-around jackass. People tend to find you when they need to be put in their places. You always have a degratory word ready for everyone, anywhere, at any time. The few friends that you have are the only people in your community that can watch your words with stings of their own." 23/2/10

"I love myself more than you, sure, but that doesn't mean I don't at least like you." 4/4/10

"

Sometimes I look at people overseas and I get jealous, seeing them taking photos of themselves in Disneyland or something. Then I think, there's no point being envious, because there is no way I'd get to go overseas. And lo and behold, I've gone out of Malaysia 2 times within 6 months already." 4/4/10

"Self love is Good love" 11/4/10

"I've realized that negativity takes a lot out of you and worry will drive you crazy. So, I always try to compare a negative with a positive and deal with worry by relaxing and realizing that, when we worry, the outcome still remains unchanged." 15/4/10

"I'm the centre of my Universe, and it revolves around me!" 16/4/10

"When all your friends are offline and you're the only one with nothing to do, then you know it's time to start worrying and to try to finish your homework (that you have postponed since days gone)." 18/4/10

"HOPE & END" are always there for everybody - it depends on us how we deal with them - "A HOPELESS END" or "AN ENDLESS HOPE". 20/4/10

"I know you've just lost someone precious to you and by what means now you can no longer meet that person, yet I'm still the same selfish me, still wishing that you can smile and laugh with me and tell me jokes and your experiences and your problems and your joys..." 21/4/10

"Girls can be fashionable and they won't seem peculiar, they might look good even. Guys can be fashionable and everyone will be looking at them and thinking what went wrong somewhere." 5/5/10

"My greatest weakness is that I often hesitate to tell the people that mean most to me that I do, in fact, care for them regardless of how I act. All too soon these people drift away from my life, and now, more than ever, is the year where all our paths will be split. Will our roads ever intertwine again, or will we continue down our separate paths, never to see each other?" 20/5/10

"What are friends? Well, friends are people you can sit around with and talk nonsense with and laugh for no reason with... Something like you and me, got it memorised?" 28/5/10

"My heart just wouldn't be in it, y'know? Haven't got one. Haha." 30/5/10

"It was fun to live aimlessly, and I wanted it to stay that way
Even though I kept on living aimlessly, I believed something could come out of it. My friends around me could reach so much higher than me. But I pretended to ignore them when my neck grew sore from watching from below." 11/6/10

"You may think you're good, but always remember, that somewhere out there some asian dude or dudette is doing it better than you are." 12/6/10

"It's fine if you just do what you can. Just keep on living optimistically like before. This is "what you can do" because there are some people who can't do it." 24/6/10

"I'm sick, sick of this. I'm sick of myself for not being able to to change, sick of myself for being a coward, sick of myself for procrastinating, sick of myself for my incompetence, sick of myself for all the wrongs that I've done.

But I'll be sick of myself no more, I'll be brave, I'll be speaking truths, I'll be facing my fears, I'll do things perfectly and I'll do things properly.

I'll be sick of myself no more" 29/6/10

"Saying that I didn't work hard is lying.

I did work hard, very hard. However, I can never be sure that all my hard work was enough, because somewhere, somehow, someone is working harder than me, and that has made all the difference.

I did work hard, but did I really work enough?" 6/7/10

"Every single one of us has our own "pattern", ways that we differenciate ourselves from one another. The way we walk, the way we talk, the way we eat, the decisions we make, the facial expressions we make, our physical features, our abilities, our likes, dislikes, hopes, dreams.... everything we are... makes us special.... So Love yourself... just the way you are." 7/7/10

"
"Living" is ultimately about being involved with people.

Building relationships with others is like creating "proof" that you existed,
and the termination of these relationships is not unlike "death"." 10/7/10

"You think you can just run around, doing everything you want? Well the world sucks, and as you grow older, you have to bear RESPONSIBILITIES. R-E-S-P-O-N-S-I-B-I-L-I-T-I-E-S. Whenever you think you can escape it, the world will drag you back even though you may claw the ground, begging for help. The Solution? Live.with.it. Period." 12/7/10

"We've forgotten what it's like not to be able to reach the light

switch. We've forgotten a lot of the monsters that seemed to live in our
room at night.

Nevertheless, those memories are still there, somewhere
inside us, and can sometimes be brought to the surface by events,
sights, sounds, or smells. Children, though, can never have grown-up
feelings until they've been allowed to do the growing." 14/7/10

How to get great friends...

1. By talking a lot, and when people asked you what you've talked about after you've finished talking, you are unable to answer. a.k.a. talking nonsense.

Great friends are fun to have...

IP MAN 2

Woowie. Yesterday I watched Despicable Me, and today; Ip Man 2. I gotta say, I can't believe I hadn't watched it yet. It was really awesome! How he totally kicked butt and all, but not only that, Ip Man also talked about respect and mutualism. I believe that's what our world needs now!

Despicable Me

If I could, I would watch it all over again! ♥Margo and ♥ Edith and ♥Agnes! ♥ Gru's accent! ♥ His personality!
How someone so despicable could be someone so great! It's such wonderful movie! I don't know what to say, for if I do, I'd be spoiling it for all of you!

"Terence is a good boy...

is just that he is lazy and doesn't like to memorize things."
~Mr. Wong.

Fuhuhuhu.

... I kinda dislike...

So some people get overly sensitive about a small matter. Is it alright to involve EVERYONE in your petty dispute over your FREAKING pride? Nevermind.

Early this morning... supposed to have photoshoot for uniform units, but it rained right after the BSMM had their shots. went back to class, ugh, don't want to talk about that.

Somewhere along the way.... Keongz whacked my head. Felt kinda dizzy a bit after that... damnit!
I don't really know what to blog about... school is kinda boring these days.

Oh and I'm trying to pick up some mix-mash of Chinese Language!

Well, soon at any rate...

Till next time!

Your word today...

Agh, damn it all! Why do some people get so upset over such a small matter? I don't understand anymore... I didn't go to school for this shit!

Well anyways, I shall not touch on the above topic... I might just get angry again... and break some ties with someone...

Other than that.. photography session today... Going to retire soon... hahahaha.
Going to have to start focusing on my studies... but I wonder why I always feel so tired.... It's like my tiredness drags on when I overexert myself...

Badminton Competition

WHOOO potong stim!

First round Han Yang lost...
2nd Round Thim Seng and Jian Hwa lost...
3rd round Fan Kiat and I lost..

Then I saw some state players match... state player vs beginner... so imba. Seeded players vs unseeded players... I don't know how they arranged the pairings. Whatever... damn tired now... add maths homework still uncompleted...

Till next time!

Basket Ball Again ( and procrastination)

Woke up this morning, wanted to do add maths project... then said Aiya... eat breakfast first only do..

After breakfast... I saw bear online... main dota...

Then a while more lunch... so I said.. aiya after lunch only do.

LOL

then suddenly already 3pm. So I started doing... then 5pm went Basketball

Same group of people again this time... except I didn't see Godfrey... and +1 Mr. KHOO

In the group...
IZ
Kaleb
Aron
Jas pi
Maverlyn
and her sister... Mandalyn ( I hope I got it right!) EDIT: Yeah, it's right now!

This time... Maverlyn didn't even play a little. Hehe. At least her sister came into the court and did a few passes.

Somewhere along the way, we breaked and the three musketeers (Aaron Fan Kiat and I) drank green tea. Kurang manis!

Then Maverlyn was like...
"Is this your bottle?"
"Yeah... do you need it?"
"Can I crush it?"
"Uh... if you want to go ahead."


Then somewhere along the way my leg cramped. Ouch.
But I still played again anyways.
my leg kind of hurt now... badminton competition tomorrow!

Now going dinner before finishing add maths project...

Till next time!

Seoul garden= Fattening!

So, I woke up at 7am (for some reason, I don't know) even though I slept at 2am...

Had breakfast... then procrastinated about doing add maths project... then I slept a while, then lunched, then procrastinated a bit more... then tuition.. then procrastinated...

Then my family and I went to Seoul Garden (MP) to celebrate my sister's birthday. The food there is the same as always, great but fattening. Since its all you can eat, and the price is damn well above normal, we tend to eat a lot. Even my father, who normally doesn't eat much, ate like 9 plates.

The ceremony ended with the presentation of a birthday gift (a pair of really nice earrings) to my sister from my sister. FYI: I have 2 sisters. After that I went to play DDR ( really REALLY bad idea) and spent the rest of the time walking around MP.

For photos in Seoul Garden, check out my Facebook... here


came back home, procrastinated some more about doing the add maths project... instead went to dota with Max, then one more round with Bear...

hahaha...

Till next time!

We're all crazy and I like it

So what am I doing up so late? The number of times I've stayed up past 1a.m. can be counted with two hands and ten fingers...

but I just can't help it. Some of my best friends are only online late at night, and talking with a bunch of almost retarded-ed people is fun... a different kind of fun that usual. The bad thing is... after staying up so late I feel like crap the next morning... so... every good thing has its ups and downs...


SIDENOTE:
I have already finished House of the Dead Overkill... the very same day that I bought it. I think it kinda sucks in comparison to the other House of the Dead games... but oh well.

Friday=> Tzu Chi

Slept late last night.. didn't feel too good this morning.

Add Maths: LKL suddenly got angry... who knows why... and gave us a bunch of homework.

After school, me and Keongz went walking around MP and DP... Gim Toong followed us.

Then I followed Keongz to Tzu Chi's cafe... or something. To study...

stayed there till 7pm... I did study... only a little. Most of the time was lying down and talking nonsense. That place is so nice...


PS:// Bought House of the Dead Overkill... hehe

Hunger and Tiredness

Germans lost to the Spaniards 0-1

=====

I reached school feeling tired on a whole new level....

What did I do in school today? Nothing much... like always.

My class donated the most to the school so far... with RM7535 or something...

Bio extra class after school... nothing really interesting happened...

Guess I'm too tired... might update this later.


Edit:

Slept on the wooden floor in my house... forgot to make the fan slower... I think I'm sick. HAHAHA.

I wish I knew...

So today at school (like always) was kind of normal, nothing really great happened.

Oh wait, Khoo Jia En just rebutted Bernard in one of my ways.

Bob: Jia en, wanna hear a joke?
KJE: What, you're already a joke Bernard...

I was shocked! I guess that means that he is mixing around with me a little too much. At least he can speak sarcastically now.

First two periods of English... everyone is making fun of me again just becoz Brother acknowledges my ability to write...
Maths... we learned that Earth is a Sphere...
Chemistry... we skipped to Thermochemistry because theres the National Chemistry Quiz next week... and yew keong and I was observing Glenn for a while... noticing his little antics and weird expressions. Example... du du du du and the shape of his lips... haha.

Moral... Observing glenn again... No reaction when I messed with his bottle. We talked about making a doll of Glenn... when you press the button he'd say a string of bad words and profanities... hahaha.
Physics... nothing really much... we were supposed to have extra class for physics after physics... which would mean about 3 hours of physics in a row... but extra class was cancelled because we had to listen to a talk on studying in Ireland.

Ireland is a really beautiful place... but other than that I don't really know much about it.

Then we ( Glenn, Yew Keong, Aaron along the way and I) brought Brother out to lunch in US Pizza. the pizzas there are quite nice actually, nicer than Pizza Hut. Did I miss anything? I don't really feel that well today, I guess, even though I slept early last night. I've been having weird dreams, or borderline nightmares lately...

Till Next Time!

I really wanted to say something... but I've forgotten what it was. This is happening a lot lately... not good.

The Chatbox

I noticed that the chatbox isn't working for some reason... well nevermind. I'll try to find something else. Till next time!

Edit: It's working again.

Cleaning my desks

I had always wanted to clean my desk... for a long long time now... but just didn't feel like it due to procrastination or just laziness. Or maybe I couldn't bear to throw away anything I might find there.

When I got back from school today, my father told me that he already arranged most of my stuff on the table... it's just up to me to clean it up. So I started cleaning it up... and guess what I found?

Lots of things that really bring back happy memories for me... things that I stored at the deepest part of my head ready to be thrown out at any moment... For the photos please look here

Well, I'm glad I cleared it up, now it's much more neat looking and stuff. Yeah.


===What happened in school today===

Trigonometry is making my hair drop.
I listened to my friend's life story.
"Sir, can I touch your hair?!"

Today At Add Maths Tuition...

First thing I noticed was Mr Yong, Isaiah and Caleb standing there with their grins... then as I stepped out of the car Isaiah said something and Mr. Yong just shook his head.

...

"Can I touch your hair?!"

---

during the class... Isaiah was hungry (starviiinngggg) so we got permission from the teacher and went outside ( there is a pasar malam very week there) ...
We were walking around then Isaiah saw keropok lekor... got quite a lot left... then the sign said 5 keping 1 ringgit, 4 keping 1 ringgit, 1 cawan 1 ringgit (I guess for different sizes) then there were 14 big ones ( I guess the 4 keping 1 ringgit ones...)

Then isaiah said: "Eh, cik... saya beli semua dua ringgit boleh?"

Then I was like stunned. Then the Malay lady was like pandai juga kau, bolehla bolehla...

In the end... I-Z bought 14 Lekor(big) with RM 2... when it should have cost about Rm3.50
...

Well nevermind.
