The PUB rowing show at Marina Bay was fun! Even though the main objective is not met, but we had a great time rowing and having fun. Having to row left again is tiring. The food there is good.

My back is aching!! argH!!!

Rest for sometime after race, looking forward to the next training. Perhaps no one will know how much it hurts without falling. But the problem is, one must know what's the root of the problem and the reason of failure. Hope this failure is not wasted, buck up guys!!

Dinner after race, like not very worth it? I didn't get to try the fried rice at all!! hahaa...and the potato is making me feeling sick.

Bowl on Saturday at textile center, gonna close down soon, but the rate was damn cheap.

I am sick again...

幸福是什么?

Area 10 LMSC 2007 on 20th June to 22nd June, went for it to help out. 3 days of the course, quite enjoyable and also a bonding session. After that, went for the chalet a while at Aloha Changi. as usual, big and nice and deserted.

POL-ITE race 2007 held at Bedok Reservior on last Saturday, 23/06/07. It is an one and only race set among the polytechnics and ITE team. We managed to get 3rd in this race, Congrats!~ And also not forgetting the girls team, who get 1st again in this year's race. Cheers!~

June race in 5 more days. How much difference we can make is up to us. In 5 days' time, it's time to show what we are made of. Keep morale high!!

It's really sucks to do something which you don't feel like doing.

16 June 2007, the expiry date for my 3 years of CIship. I did learnt something from the course throughout these years, but still, I still prefer to be a follower.

Had my fitness test on Thursday, quite okay with the result I guess, but still got 1 fail, which is sit-up. But 47 this number is the most I did so far. hahaa..therefore, i still make impove =). After that, I fall sick again.(Same as last year, also this period sick! Damn!!)

Some sad news also in the team. Hope that those people will get over will it.

5 more days to POL-ITE race, please let me get well soon, and also to those people who are currently sick.

Remember, respect your opponent! We can do it!

Can I have the number of the counsellor which pin on the SAA notice board?

"I am a First-Aider, I can help!".

3 full day of first aid course has ended. Went for this course with Sean and Ze Feng. Have to wake up damn early to attend, feel kind of tired these 3 days. The class comprises of around 20 plus people, with a mixture of secondary school kids and members of public. Curse those kids in the class, was super noisy throughout this course, majority of them are secondary 1 students. Most of the time really feel like using the bandage to stuff it into their mouth.

The course was quite fun, did learn something new. To chiong the whole book in 2 days is like mental training.

Today is the test day. First was the theory paper, followed by practical. A pass is a must in both area, however, after finishing, think that I did a lot of them wrong. While waiting for the theory results, she says there is a bad news!! 2 failure in the class.. I was damn worried at that moment, think the heart rate is go up to 200 beats in a minute lor. But thankfully, I passed! Getting so nervous is actually a very tiring process.

Proceed with the practical test, the examiner is 73 years old, still contributing to the Red Cross. When he stepped in, he was really looking damn fierce, especially when he started to test on those kids, the 3 of us like were already planning of a re-test date already. He doesn't compromise standard. However, due to some unforeseen circumstances, we found out that he is actually a very humorous old man who stick on his principle and his stand. He taught us some new things within that 2 hours, which was something not taught previously.

Finally, we passed the test.

Craving for singing session recently, think china man influence me a lot. Went sing on last Friday, with china man and Lynette. Really enjoy listen to her singing.

Hope miracle will happen 3 and 4 weeks later, kind of sad-ed but not yet demoralize. Please produce more motivation source in me.

The feeling of winning is really very good, but is there another chance of experiencing it again?

Sian

Been to Ben You's(celebrate with Kiat Rui) chalet on Friday and Jane's birthday on Saturday. First chalet provides almost unlimited of alcoholic drinks whereas second one provides more on food. Both were quite fun, kind of a small secondary school gathering.

Request for earlier enlistment is not approve. The school cheat my feelings. =( Mostly likely will be in Dec. argh!!!!! There will be 7 months time...

Nowadays a lot of people getting emo, think is the peak emo period.

If you happen to pick up a $2 note, how will you spend it?

Bought a Toto ticket myself few days ago just to try my luck, didn't win any money but 2 and a half of the number come out. Just too bad. Anyway,that's my 1st attempt. Hopefully don't get hooked in gambling in toto or 4D.

Played tennis just now, not too bad la the game, but also a bit sian too. Maybe need more practice?

Hate the school!! Cheat my feelings!! hai..sian..

Give me earlier enlistment can?

"I Can Only Imagine".

Watched spiderman 3 with some 12 of the teammates on Wednesday, almost the last row was occupied by us. We were quite lucky that can still get the tickets 3 hours before the show, and get to choose the last row of seats. Didn't watch part 1 and 2, so kind of a bit no link when watch part 3, but overall, quite nice. After watching, had supper at McDonald. We were still chatting on the show, damn lame, got the china version of spiderman because of bobo, the china man. hahahaa...laugh like hell at mac, shall ask him what his web is made of!! Well, watching which movie next Wednesday?lol..

Yesterday's rowing was bad I guess, having long lecturing session. Hopefully the session will do the team better. Our small group of seniors currently has face different batch of people now, feelings and the motivation is different. Everything is so different, but however, life have to move on. Just kind of miss it what you have lost. As for me, yes indeed I do feel something at the end of the training, my expression can't hide, even though I am trying to. Shall not elaborate much on it because I do not want to affect the others.

How much time does a horse spend sleeping at night?
Horses typically spend anywhere from 4 to 15 hours a day in standing rest, and anywhere from minutes to several hours lying down. Only part of that time is actual sleep time, which is taken in brief naps that last a few minutes each. The daily total sleep time for an adult horse may range from a few minutes to a couple of hours. Foals and young horses, like other youngsters, sleep more, more deeply, and more often than adults.

First day of school today, went to school even though no lesson for me. Meet zf and mingmar to try their graduation attire, but not yet me. Mingmar may be going back soon, depends on the situation, but will definitely miss him if is going back. Had lunch at Flavours canteen, miss the food and dessert there. Today is not enough, shall continue another day. Went library a while after that, saw a lot of people at level 3 slacking, think should be those year 1s in majority.

Temasek Regatta 2007 ended with great success. Everything goes on smoothly and it was a great and tiring day for us. Gathered at sport complex at 7am, get changed into the the tee-shirt and go directly to the reservoir. Once again, being allocated the role of drummer, quite fun. Seeing those secondary school kids rowing their best to achieve victory,especially those inexperience one, it really reveals the importance of team work in the boat. One of the race is the school of IT(guys) which I was drumming for them. They were really very motivating group of people who enjoy cheering for themselves. Kind of like their cheer actually. In the end, not too sure of their placing in that race, think should be either 2nd or 3rd, which makes me feel that school of IT is not actually moulding a bunch of board and dull people. 3 cheers to school of IT =).

After that, take part in the alumni race. Hahaha..got 1st. Will it be stated in the student transcript?hahaha...

After that, ended it with everything wrap up and the debrief, followed by the dinner provided. Hope that such event or more upcoming can provide more bondings for the team.

Training today makes me feel a sense of satisfaction after so long. Perhaps long time didn't row what we did today, after completing it, like that feeling. The motivation among the team is good, hope to have this feeling again in future. 5 weeks to race, I believe the team can do it!~

Today Friday the 13, just got to be more careful.

Went bowling with some of the guys after training on Wed and Thurs.. Wed went to marina square there to bowl, reach there around 6 plus, but after 6pm is of higher rate. Didn't really play bowling for quite some time, feeling kind of shiok playing it again...

I think that some arrogant and egoist bastard should really shut up and stuff that bowling ball into his mouth, and not to say something like "I will win you" this kind of thing to almost everyone. This will only make others more dislike you even more. Hopefully now that he has a lot more time to think, think it over again and be more humble. Even if he really has what it takes, just shut the freaking mouth, worse of all, he really don't have what it takes, not even one pathetic game. (think the guys will know who this egoist bastard is, not worth it to mention in this blog to pollute it!).

Yesterday went to Katong to bowl, damn unlucky!! Went there to find out that it was close down. After that, we headed to textile center at Lavender there. We bowled for 4 games, Shi Han aka Hazel(initially was Mary) says not enough, shall bowl again one day.

Do you think life is fair?

Feeling sick and headache...damn it..

Looking forward to the dinner with my classmate later, got to catch up with them, long time no see. Looking forward to Friday's dinner too. Lot's of dinner recently, meaning no more $$...sad-ed.. Means will have to look for money soon. From where? One-Stop Center again?Happy belated birthday to Xiang Lin, who was munching medicine on his birthday, hope he will get well soon.

My head going to explode soon..

Good Friday today, my Friday seems a bit boring and spend aimlessly. The weather sucks, going on , off and on. Last rowing session, the weather is already like that, very hot, then a bit of rain with dark clouds, then hot again and dark clouds again, what is wrong with the weather man? I think it is also the reason for people falling sick.

Master Series 1 is over, there is room for improvement for the team. After that, chalet at downtown east, organised by Desmond, Raymond and me. Somehow is rather successful I would say for the number of people who turn up. Though the time is short, but is rather fun.

TAIN exams the following after chalet, a bit tired but the question did come out on what I had studied for. To pass shouldn't be a problem. Emailed the teacher yesterday, he say result will not be released till principal's approval, and MAYBE will be around late April or early May, WTF??!!

Happy birthday to Desmond, Raymond and XiangLin whose birthday falls on the same week in the team, and also to all the April kids=)

Thanks for all the greetings and wishes, people!!

People getting sick nowadays, throat getting dry now...

Last week's AGM was a great one, firstly get our nice new polo tee, then watch the powerpoint slides and tributes, followed by dinner and presentation. But too bad can't join them for the gathering after the AGM. Last Friday was really a busy day for me, everything was so rush.

Congrats to Irvin, Alvin and ah boon... and also Audery, lynette and sze hui.

Now mugging alone for the coming and the only paper on monday, master series on sunday, guys, really got to do your best man!~

TAIN (Technology and Innovation) is actually a nice subject, kind of easy to pass i guess, or like what the teacher says. My group members says I am always putting on the black thinking hat during project discussion, hahaa..I would say YOU GUYS ARE LUCKY OKAY? lol...

Well, enlistment date may delay, so sian...who knows there will be another river regatta for me?hahaha...

Good luck for those having supp papers!~

Not sure why my blog got something wrong with it, will be force to close it, is it because of the blogskin?

Assignment period again, but shouldn't be a problem. Time frame is fast, got to complete assignment by this week.

IT fair this year, been there twice already. Bought some items such as thumbdrive, harddisk etc. Someone asked me what is the different between flash drive and thumb drive. Here's the answer:

Flash drives and thumb drives have many similar qualities, but there are a few differences.

A flash drive is a compact USB memory drive that acts a lot like a portable hard drive. You can store data on it, as well as, transfer it from computer to computer. They are able to hold a great deal of information, but they do come in different storage sizes. The greatest amount that is available today is 2 GB. These types of drives have easily taken over floppy disks, because floppies can only hold 1.44 MB. That's quite a difference!

Beside being able to hold mass amounts of data, flash drives are as small as a pack of gum and they can easily fit into your pocket for easy transportation. They are also more convenient to use than an external hard drive, because of their small size. Nobody wants to drag a hard drive around everywhere they go!

Like I said before, a thumb drive is very similar in the amounts of data it can hold and its size. Thumb drives are like digital lock boxes. They come with a write protection feature. This is just a switch located at the bottom of the drive that when it is unlocked, you are able to write data to the thumb drive, but when it is locked, you can only read data from the drive. This feature helps with accidental deletion of some of your files.

Other than that, flash drives and thumb drives both work to store your personal data, whether that be documents, pictures, music, etc. All you have to do is drag and drop the files you want onto the drive and then you can edit them just like you would anything else. You can also transport the information between different computers very easily. So, if you want to show that awesome picture to your mom or share that new song with your friend, you can do that with either one of these USB drives.

Flash drives and thumb drives both usually work on Windows 98 and SE, ME, 2000, XP and on Mac OS 8.6, 9.0 and higher as long as you have USB functions on your computer. They even work on some Linux programs. All of these capabilities depend on your system. The cost of both of these devices vary greatly depending on the manufacturer and the size of storage you get.

Basically, the main advantages of these drives is that they hold more data and they're easier to carry around. They're more practical than a floppy disk, a CD or an external hard drive. So, if you often find yourself wanting to share information on different computers and you want a secure way to save your data, a flash or thumb drive will be perfect for you.

hahaha...4 more days to assignment due.

aarrrgghh!! sian..now alone in school library level 3 using computer. Feeling boring, don't know what to do. All the best having their paper now.

Day 2 of lesson today, so far the lesson have been quite interesting, I will continue and try to pay attention in class. So far 2 days of lesson also late, hahaaa...sorry teacher, I will try not to be late the next time. Intensive lesson, 1 day = 4 days i guess, because all squeeze into 1 mth rather than the normal 4 mths. Still gonna think of a product to enhance, my group think of tablet computer, what do the rest think? hahaa..

Feeling rather restless now, typing this post, hearing some laughter some computers away, watching something funny show from the computer, feel like slapping them, laughing so loud.hahaha...think should head home and have a nice afternoon nap now...=)

Don't know what is wrong is the date setting, now is 26/02/2007, 14:53...

End my SIP around 2 weeks ago... the feeling is great, no more formal wear and travel to novena, no more office hour etc. To those who is still having their SIP, all the way!! it's ending sooN!! Last day of SIP was rather slack, some of us were taking pics, then the rest of the time was walking around to wait for the time to pass. In the morning, there is this division presentation which we were suppose to attend, but who cares man, just went there for free food. My last lunch break, went for lunch at 12pm, go orchard meet my classmate for lunch and went back at 2pm, longest break ever. 3pm interns debriefing, wrote some comment such as the security's attutite, think he got serious attitude problem. I chat with my supervisor, though it was less then 30 mins of chatting sesison, but is the longest period of time which I chat with her. Well, just wish her all the best, and also my supervisor's boss. Don't think will be travelling to novena soon, get rather tired of this place.

Happy Chinese New Year to all chinese!!! Today is the 4th day of CNY, hope that everyone is still fine after eating all heaty bak gwa, pineapple tarts, cakes, sweets, sweety drinks etc (Yummy yummy)!!! hahaa..only 4th day, and now i am having fever. think majority of the new year stuff is eaten by me, not the guest. sick on CNY, sucks man!!

Vocation term elective is approved, meaning no 4.1 for me.(Faster come congrats me!!). The elective is an IT sch elective, starting this fri, today is wed, and I don't know the freaking time table yet, so they expect us to stand by on fri from 7am to 9pm? system sucks to the core...always so last minute. It is gonna be intensive, how intensive is it? Graduation ceremony in next year? sad is the word..

Good luck for all those having exams...

Jan Time Sheet

It ending soon.. Have been counting down everyday, 1 more week left. How i wish the building suddenly caught fire, renovation for 1 week. Well, on that day of grading by my supervisor on Wednesday, i was thinking how is she going to grade me? she doesn't assign me much work, don't know how good or bad my performance is, don't know much about me, how to grade? Well, must be quite hard on her to actually have to grade me within 15 to 20 minutes time, as she got the form 20 minutes before my LO came. Looking at the situation like this, don't think she will give me better grades, then a 'pass' will do la. Feel like learning so little through this attachment, life's so unfair..

For some of my friends out there graduating, what you gonna do after that?work?slack? Have been wanting to travel to somewhere, but no money to do so...sad!

Receive a purple letter, ask me for vocation assessment, hahaha..just hope everything goes on fine. Coming holidays, still not sure how to fully utilize it.

CNY coming, yet to get new clothes.

MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, where are you? Please look for me during this CNY ok?

argh!!! 1 more week!!

Lunch time seems to be more enjoyable nowadays. Tuesday went for lunch with Lindy, had a quick lunch at level 2 cafeteria, then take train to orchard to walk walk. Not much crowd at that time, feeling so different. Today went to Raffles place to lunch with ky, kt, jon and vivian.Food over there is definitely better in novena, much more variety and better price. Using tissue paper to book places are often seen there, but rarely seen in other areas. The whole area are filled with formal wear people, all seems to be rushing for time, depicting the meaning of 'time is money'.There are also some seating on the stone bench reading TODAY, youngsters promoting their services and products with noticable outfit. Really like the environment there, but just too bad, I am not fated to work there.

Chinese New Year is coming, got to start hunting for items before doing last minute shopping. So much things to buy, yet money is never enough to satisfy one's need. That's life! So that people will strive hard for it.

Resolution for this year?Still there is lots of uncertainty, need to take some time and think. But so far, beginning of this year already fall sick, hopefully things will get better.

Hate taking train during peak hour, because you will end up like sardin in the can.Recently have been quite late for work, hopefully next week onwards, will be able to be earlier.

3 more weeks, looking forward to this break, because a lot of things yet to be done.By the way, time sheet for Jan is half way through!! Welcome back to those people who had their attachment overseas. NAPFA is coming, got to train. Feel so tired of it...hahaha. Some people are falling sick recently, get well soon... 2 questions to think, don't forget!!

Went back to training yesterday after few weeks, muscles are aching now...

The vacation term elective till now is still under pending approval, why do they need such a long time to decide whether to approve or not? If it's only 8 people in a class, so what? 500 plus for a subject, not worth it man, but what to do?

To think that the task seems impossible, but if you don't try, you may regret it. What can I do man? Got any advisor to help solve this problem?

Now it's year 2007, new year, new resolution!! Too much to mention...

Summary of Year 2006:
It has been a frutiful year, been to 2 overseas races before, both also a great one, or rather, great two. Also we have the POL-ITE race, July race and Regatta race, all at least we do obtain something. Seeing the yr 1s from 100 over people, now only to the selected people, following the footprints which we left it last yr, starting to think that we time is fast. Of course, happy moments is best kept in our heart, and also there were sad moment such as attending friend's funeral. Other than that, going through attachment is also a great experience for me to have a taste of how's the office lifestyle is like. The year has ended, what's done cannot be undone, just hope that in this new year, everything will still be fine, world peace=).

Now in year 2007, the year end sales has been very tempting. Bought some items, now quite broke.20 plus more working days left...

Went back to work today after X'mas, my department seems to be a little quieter than before, as some of the staffs are clearing their leave from this week till next year. Shiok man!~

Monsoon season now, keep raining and raining...Today was raining the whole day, till now still raining. Too much of it sucks. Well, think I have to learnt to prioritize things efficiently...

Back from Penang, and I can really say it was a very fruitful trip.

Meeting the rest of the teammate at 9pm on last Friday at school. Captain forgot the time, and luckily he managed to make it just in time to board the bus. When we were in our first bus, all of us were very excited about the trip already. Later part when we reach the custom, we board the other bus which is 26-seater, from the custom. The coach is really consider comfortable, rather spacious. we started off out journey from the second coach at around 10pm. The lighting of the coach was dim, and we sleep our way till the first rest point where we had our supper.Subsequently, we only had toilet break in between. Sleeping at the bus is quite hard, though it is consider comfortable.Finally, we reach our hotel, Copthorne Orchid, at about 8 plus in the morning. When we reach there, saw many teams from singapore were already there. We waited at the lobby while waiting to check in. As rooms are not available yet, we were only given 2 rooms to be shared among 26 of us.

At half past 12, we were all ready for the first day of our mission. Our first heats was mens' open. We managed to get 1st and get into semi-finals. As for mens' junior, we got 2nd and was ORIGINALLY get into finals since there is not semi-finals.

The next day, due to unforeseen circumstances, we were to go for rapid charge race. Fill with some unsatisfaction, all the guys row their hearts out and we got back our place to finals. As for the results of mens' juniors and mens' open, we got 4th and 1st respectively.

These 2 days of races were very happening. We did experienced something from it.

As day 2 of the trip was Irvin's birthday, we 'celebrated' his day there.hahaha...and we know that he had reveiced his best present, which is the gold cookie. Overall, the trip was memorable.

A dragon boat team worth remembering, Team Hak.

Finally week 8, 42 more working days, meaning "Thank god it's alredady half way!", or " Half way only?", depends on how you think it. Fall sick again, and viruses was spreading it on and on. This got to stop.

As usual, these period of time during attachment is rather boring, no life. Most of the time is only go work, go home and go training.

Today went home taking train. While walking to take another bus, there is this teenage girl, with a booklet on her hand and a pen I guess(if i didn't see wrongly), was coming towards me while I was walking and listening to songs. I thought she's doing some survey and I kind of trying to avoid it. But She seems to be talking something was I have to take of my ear piece to figure out what she wants. It turn out to be her asking what bus goes to Jurong point. This is the rough conversation between us:
She: Sorry, may I know what bus goes to Jurong Point? Don't faint ahz(we were at bedok interchange)
Me: (I was thinking of what bus)
She: You working? You looking young..
Me: (say restlessly) Having attachment
She: Are you rushing to go home?
Me:(just give a smile i think, cannot really remember), I think you can approach the working kiosk over there...
She: thank you

The whole conversation should be something like that, cannot remember much.But really find her weird, if she really wants to know what bus to take, will she ask about if I am working and rushing home all those things? Well, I still think she is a surveyot, using other ways to tricking people in answering their question.

Took some nice postcards at work place, it's really plain and simple, yet quite plansant-looking.

Few more days, kind of excited about it.

November time sheet

Wednessay went to work, a fire alarm sounded at 10.05am and followed by the P.A system asking the people to stay calm and wait for further instruction. What's going on?

The whole building is having the fire drill exercise. Long time didn't have this kind od exercise already, quite fun actually. No one is allowed to take lift down, and my work place is at level 21, meaning got to walk down all the way to level 1...hahahaa...everybody was like walking and chatting on the stairway, some was sms-ing (like me), some was like having their breakfast and some even wore the jacket down, under happens to be a hot day. After that, all assesble at the church, take attendance and go back. It took me 11 minutes to walk from level 21 to level 1. hahahaa...Even though the weather was quite hot, I kind of enjoy it as to skip work. Had lunch at Raffles Place, didn't know that there is actually is hawker centre there, and the food is quite cheap.

Today after work went for training. Today is also 'shaving' day after the training session ends. Some of the guys is shaving their hair botak!! The process is quite fun, seeing them having their hair being shave.. but not all are willing to do so. Tomorrow Friday again, and today is the end of November!! Finally get to see my November timesheet being fully filled up and also quite hard up now...

Tuesday went to office, feeling head is like going to explode.Lunch time really feel like going home, then take leave to see doctor. During lunch time, saw eric and talk a bit with him.

Wednesday no MC, so no choice go for work.Still feeling a bit headache, so take the pills prescribed by the doctor.

Today, quite slack in office because they got nothing for me to do, but think that there will be more work coming up soon. Went to training after that. Did my fitness drop drastically? Or is it I have not recover? Or etc etc?I don't know...Just think of the 1st reason, and better buck up with the fitness and training. So people, please give me more motivation ok?I think I really it...

Really not feeling very good recently, got so many things to mention...what can I do?
Tomorrow Friday...

Went to school early today to change the matric card to new one, but don't know what's the point since we are graduating soon for the year 3s. After that, went back to temple at Bugis.

Yesterday was Friday, Friday = happy day, especially got excursion!! I was one of the selected people to go, heng man..Excursion to HDB Hub to watch the exhibition on the government sector thing on public service is kind of..um...hahaa...sian! The great thing is, I can go home early!!!hohoho....

One of my friend (forgot who already) says S.I.P = Slacking In Progress, I think I really have to agree with this!! If you were going out for SIP, you will know why I agree with it. Tomorrow training resumes for some of us, kind of excited about it.

Today think of some activities for the coming long holidays in Feb, don't know can implement it or not, hopefully can...

I don't mean to be rude, but this song is quite nice I think. Well, recently also feeling everything not quite right, due to luck? hai...so 'negative' this week..sian...Today finally got something to do at work...hahaa...well, enjoy this song..

The race is over...

Lots of feelings is in it, no time to unleash it now...perhaps talk about this on another time..

SIP in the 4th week already, don't know am I lucky or unlucky, I am still doing little or nothing in the office. How? Others are already busy like hell, and I was there doing self study whole day. So what actually SIP is all about? Slacking? Stressing? When you ask others how SIP is like, I'll tell you, that's no definite answer to it...

Time passes so slow in the office...
I miss TPDB...

End of week 2 for school and SIP, 14 weeks more to go...hahaha...counting down every moment. Miss the food in school because long time didn't get to visit them already. What most importantly is the price!! Eating in foodcourt has cause an increase in my daily expense, and it's like almost everyday, hard to save money. But no choice la...Tomorrow will be Monday again, Monday blue...

6 more days, please don't let me fall sick again, can't afford to fall sick at this time...still remember the last race, was sick quite badly at the last week before race, kind of worry at time...hahaa...luckily recover in time...

I think today got a lot of my friends birthday, got hui wei, hidayah, jackson, chye huat, kamal etc etc (forgive me if i forgot, cos really a lot of people birthday today...) Happy Birthday people!!

The feel so far is quite good, no matter what, HIGH morale okay? After this race, where'd some of us go?

It's getting nearer and nearer as time goes by....the feeling is getting harder to surpress it since the rest has also notice it...I don't want to affect others, just kind of having some thoughts. How would the outcome gonna be? It's all lies in us. "The problem lies with the people in the boat, not the boat." Remember this sentence which was being mentioned a lot of times? We must constantly think of how to improve it, not to blame on the boat, because it's an excuse for not doing well, isn't it? What's our goal again still remember? What's our goal few weeks back? Is the feeling of honour and glory still instill in this race? Perhaps we do think why this team is so good? Is it any other reason? Or we were just finding excuses for ourselves to make us feel better? Well, I don't think want to say much already, don't want to affect others and also myself. What is need to say has already being said, no point repeating all over again if we don't want to absorb into our brain.

Remember the sentence!

Day 4 of SIP seems to be slightly better compared to day 1, think get use to the boredness already...But from next week onwards, the actual work should be starting already since we get the login ID today.Well...TGIF again...think must look forward to friday every week because friday is a 'dress-down' day and it ends earlier. Gonna think of program for next friday...

Quite broke recently yet have many things want to buy...sad case man...Kind of miss school life now, where we go for lecture at 9am(mostly) late, many hours of break in a day and also going home early, go shopping after schoolo and also, lunching with the guys..lol...Who says nasi padang in IT school is expensive?hahaha...

But now is really a new experience for me, which I had never experience it before. White collar, 9 to 5 lifestyle (bullshit, i 8.30 to 6), even though it's working full-time as a waiter, it's also different though the hours is equally long.

By the way, I think I got my own space for working. Feeling kind of good, where you got your own space and put your own items on the table. My supervisor is a nice person though haven't interact very much yet, but should be happy working with her. Other than that, the rest like..um...got a bit of age already....sad again...training tomorrow..work hard guys!~

Taken from my level

Working area

Today another chapter of life begins because of the new experience which the working experience in company related to IT. Well, nothing much to say la..just wanna say...YES! I LOVE SIP!! YES!! BELIEVE ME!!! LOVE SIP SO MUCH!! LOVE IT TILL GOT NIGHTMARE!! YEAH!~ I AM GONNA LOVE IT! I MUST LOVE IT!!

Happy birthday ah siao and aloy!~

Time is ticking nearer to race day, kind of excited and lots of other feelings. But also thinking if it would be my last race...lol...Looking back some of the emails in the yahoogroups, have some thoughts, some would even be quite touching also. It really thanks to Hak Loon for saying all those on tuesday, and it kind of makes me feel better. Hope that the team will also have the same thoughts as mine. Now kind of looking forward to tomorrow's training, even if it's a tough one expected. Really feel that motivation really helps a lot, come to think of it more since I first joined.

Holidays gonna end soon, meaning no time for playing. Everybody would be busy with their work. Promise to enjoy to your heart's content on the next long break ok people?

Went for briefing on thursday, know who the LO already. She looks quite nice I would say, and also friendly.

Always do not follow others blindly, have your own decision at times. People will always like to follow their friends in whatever they do, for example, choosing CDS, joining CCA etc, but do you really like whatever you do and the choices you made? There will be times when you will be alone, so do what you deem fit. Saying is easy, but will you choose to be a temporary loner and pray hard that you will make friends soon than having friends beside you all the while and having some regrets? This you will have to weigh it yourself.

The power of the haze has made so many people to accomodate their life style and compromise their daily activities, powerful huh? Have been joining the supper club for sometime, but how come still no effect?

Muscles are still aching now...how?

Just how long is that country intending to torture Singaporeans? The time now is 2245h and I just went to the living room to look at the PSI stated at the top left corner of the television, it is now PSI 116!! Bad condition isn't it? This morning ain't getting any better I guess, causing people to have 'blur' vision across distance. Singaporeans are getting sick nowadays because of it, and most importantly, our big day is coming soon!! Time is running out!! Doctors and herbal tea sellers must be very happy at this period of time..well..just hope everything will be settled soon, especially tuesday!! Feeling quite tired nowadays...is it just me? SuPpEr tImE nOw!~

Today gain another new experience!! hahaha....first time on a bike ride, of course I am not the driver. It is actually quite fun having a bike ride session, a bit excited and nervous initially, but after a while getting the hang of it already.

Shucks!~ Get to know my SIP company and it is damn far!! How to rush back in time for training? hai..quite disappointed not in airport like Dion, hahaha...anyway, at least got Vivian and Lindy get into the same company as me, the rest still don't know who are they. Just got to pray hard everything goes smoothly. Also hope that no formal wear is needed...

Why is it that majority of you are looking forward to SIP? Why is it that I don't?

"I Believe I Can Fly"

Do you? How about me? I do not know...hahaa...In 4 weeks' time, we got to be the the one making our boat fly, but how well can we do it? hahhaa...

Since young watch a lot of TV drama series, they acted a lot of situations, during that point of time, or even now, have you thought of it that it may happen to people around you? Take example, divorce scene on TV, look around you, see how many are not as lucky as you whose parents are divorcing? That is just an example of course, in reality, there are a lot more to see...

As time goes by, growing older, will see a lot of actual fact being shown in reality...Some people may be just not so lucky as you, so do cherish whatever you have now, do not take for granted in everything you have now...the future is unpredictable...that's life I guess?

Well, back to the song "I Believe I Can Fly", ex-BDSian from 2003 should be very familiar with this song. Our all time favourite song, hope readers may enjoy it...

Just realise that there are a lot of October babies, this month has just started and I am broke again...hai..Weather is hot...take care people...Happy birthday Caroline and Chiu Mian!~

NAPFA in 9 more days!!!

Mid-autume festival...suppose to eat moon cake with some aromatic tea and enjoy the moon (right to use 'enjoy'?) But didn't really go do that. We had our CIs unit meeting at Shu Yu's house. Actually quite like the meeting, because get to know the unit situation more and ways to salvage the problems, even thought it's not easy la...I think bonding will more or less improve. Seeing that the unit is deteriorting, thinking that CIs' job is getting harder and harder. Having the power is useless, is to see what you are capable in doing it..Kok hua says this, "There are many ways to get the answer 1, no fix way of getting it, it is to see how you want it to be", i agree. But how to do it is another problem already. Kids nowadays is really getting different from us already, will we have a bit of genaration gaps? Anyway, after meeting, went to geylang a while for beancurd and stroll around for sight-seeing...hahaha...it's Friday night ok?

Saturday is very jia lat..Why? not because of training, but the haze...morning already PSI 130..everywhere was very hazy..training was quite slack then...

Today went to help out the dragon boat events at bedok reservior. The MIND people were rowing the boat with our TP community club people, the MIND people were looking very happily, hope they enjoy this sports. They are like a bunch of happy kids, feeling happy every moment. After that went to eat at Bedok interchange, aftet that went see doctor before heading home to rest. Almost fever, but luckily don't have. Feeling quite tired now, maybe due to the medicine...got to get well soon, no time to waste...

Sometimes you really got to agree that life is so unpexpected...

This afternoon, received a call from Mr Yeak, saying that there may be an express course for the business elective around feb to march, catering to those who still short of one more business elective to graduate. After hearing that, it was like a shocking news and another ray of hope in order not to stay for another semester in TP.

For me, all the while thinking that I will be staying for another semester, is actually an unbelievable news. It is like something had already confirm, yet still got another chance to choose again. I was kind of a little bit regret in making the previous decision...hahaha...hope that this compressed elective will commerce, then only till 3.2 extended..hahaha...anyway, really feel kind of happy after hearing this...Well, if that's the case, will this coming regatta be my last race?

Anyway, still got this hurdle to cross, the SIP, pray hard everything goes smoothly...please...

Race coming soon...so what do you want? Am I having the right mindset so far?

Lots of seniors going NS this fri and sat, all the best...

Been busy for the past 1 week...

Main difference between singaporeans and foreigners(mainly ang mohs) , singaporean will want more plastic bags, as many as possible, whereas ang mohs will want lesser as possible. If singaporeans were to have the same metality as the ang mohs, the usage of plastic will then be reduced and lesser pollution.

Sea training these 2 days is tiring, quite unexpected, really quite shag out i must admit, is it due to not enough rest or I'm weak? I think the worse is yet to come...muahahahaha... The question is being asked, "What do you want for this coming race?". Well, before that, have we really have a goal towards a target? Or we just train blindly, train for the sake of training? Perhaps for SEAL points? hahaha...5 more weeks...it's not much time left...For now, time for resting is very essential..

Michelle leaving for thailand this morning at 840am..all the best for her=)

To all the kids out there, Happy Children's Day...

TGIF!

Today went jalan jalan with Hong Yi to town, then anyhow roam around, at the same time to hunt for shu yu's present. The present still yet to confirm on what to buy but at least got a few in mind already. While roaming, saw many secondary school kids in their school uniform, make me think of secondary school life, especially friday, school release early so that can go jalan around in school uniform. Secondary school rocks!~ Well, kind of missing those wearing school uniform days, even though the school uniform sucks. We went to far east, on the way go find ah ma a.k.a bra-seller, she was alone in the shop. Then while walk out of the entrance, Hong Yi actually 'make' the huge poster outside guardian drop off (should be due to the wind), then he quickly put it back. I was like laughing like hell man.Hahahaha...After some places, saw Xiang Lin and his friend on the way for their game of biallard(dunno how to spell).

Just now went home saw this red colour letter on the table, guess what? Have been hearing seniors saying medical check-up, now my turn already...But, do I need to make another deferment?hahahaha....

Today bought a new running shoes, got to thank terence for helping me to buy the shoes.

I think planning of what to do during this holiday is essential, or else, i don't know what to do already.

Planning list:
1) Read up a bit on programming books
2) Revise on NPCC matters
3) Find time to train up
4) Find time to shop and buy things
5) Enjoy myself (don't know how, but desprately need to)

Planning is one thing, implementing is another thing...Hahaha..Hopefully I can fulfil the above list of things.

Today slack whole day, feel like whole day wasted...

4 more days Michelle going OSIP in Thailand already...seeing the situation in Thailand now...hahahaha..all i can say is good luck...

Tomorrow hopefully will be a better day...

Don't know what's wrong with me recently...Hope others won't feel anything...Got so many things to say...

Feeling moody recently, not too sure why is it so, due to many factors?

Holiday must have plan what to do. Any suggestions what to do to better utilize the time?

Day by day passing, the remaining holidays is getting shorter, SIP is getting nearer. Business school and Applied Science students starting their SIP already, but not sure if thet enjoy it or not, but I don't think i will enjoy mine...hahaha...anyway, still got 1 month plus.

AAR has finished, damn long man... Hope that the next time we meet again will have better bonding..

Went suntec just now, the place itself and nearby is so crowded with blue uniforms personnel. I think the number of them is more then the customers of the whole shopping center. Everything looks so different from 2 weeks ago, a lot of items suddenly appear and it's gonna last for 10 days i believe.

Feeling is drifting apart already...

Anyway, training tomorrow...and it will be a better day..

Feeling boring, so do the cheapest way to kill time...watch movie in school library. Hahahaha...watched 'Kate and Leopold', well, not too bad, thought it would be a boring movie..hahaha...

I am having sun burn now...give me some cooling solution please..ahhaha...

Tomorrow will be a better day...(i hope so :X)

ATC has ended...both the sec 2s and 3s ATC has ended smoothly. However, i think that the campfire was really a bad job, for which the campfire I/C screw it up.I really blame myself for screwing it up, feel quite sad for it.

Holiday already, been doing nothing but slacking. I should enjoying it man!~

Today went to watch 'Little Man' with some of my teammates. I really think that this is quite a good movie. I would give 4 out of 5 stars for it.

Friday coming soon, should be going unit if i have the time because kind of miss it after so long and also, next semester will not be able to attand any of it.

Actually don't know what to post recently...just trying to be happy with life now...

Training resume, hope i can really improve more...

Had steamboat just now with my classmates, think that somehow a bit waste money, because go there like eat a lot of vegetable...hahaha..

The starting of the holiday, is it boring or is it relaxing? Hope exams result wil be out soon...

lIfE iS uNeXpEcTeD...cHeRiSh wHaT yOu hAvE...=)

wHeN iT'S tImE tO wOrK, wOrK hArD...
wHeN iT'S tImE tO pLaY, pLaY hArD...

Finally mugging session is over..Last paper of the semester, perhaps the last paper of my whole poly life....

WSAD paper looks kind of okay for me, but unexpected circumstances always happen to me...hahaha...

Early in the morning, went back to my alma mater with mingmar, bing wen, hui xian and jane. I was late!! Blame it on the nice weather because it was raining!!! Who can resist from taking a long sleep with such a nice weather??? hahahaa..Looking at the hierarchy of the teacher's picture at the notice board, saw a lot of fresh-looking teachers' picture on it. Not sure if they are going to teach there permanently or for long, but I doubt so. But luckily, those teachers whom I wanted to see are still teaching...However, due to the over whelming of the fresh bloods, the place seems to be kind of weird. We went into the staff room, everything furniture and item looks the similar, but the feeling is different. Perhaps having going back to the old premises will have more 'feel' to it because was at the old premise for 4 years. Traveling back time to 7 years ago, where i first step into that place with my mum to so-call register and get the booklist for secondary 1. Having to think back a little, i was quite unexpected when i got in into my sec. sch as it is my last choice, which i choose it randomly. However, thinking it now, 'shocking' feeling do instill. hahaa... Well, I am not sure if I am happy at that point of time, as it is so unexpected, and also hear some negative comment on that school.

Going back to secondary 1 registration, saw some familiar faces. And I mean some. hahahaha....Later part is the first day of sch, my mum was there too, sitting with many other parents on the hall to listen to the first-day-of-sch speech. I was sitting with a group of stangers, with a few similar faces in the same class. Occasionally, i do look back at my mum, as i was feeling lonely. We then proceed to our class, had our attendance taken and first lesson of my secondary school life commerce. I also had my first 'mari kita' in my 'new' school at the quadrangle. On my way home, i had this question in mind, "Today is the first day of sch, when will i ever graduate from sec sch? ".

They had the CCA booth. Everywhere is so crowded with seniors promoting their CCA and urging us to join. Initially join chinese orchestra and i chose to learn er-hu, however, 2 weeks later i chose to join NPCC, due to the teacher in charge showing slides on NPCC during assembly, thinking that this CCA would suit me better. Anyway, i do know how to play a song before i left C.O. Clever huh? hahahaa...

Talking about NPCC, think didn't regret joining la...hahaha...got myself quite committed with it. 4 years of sweat at that quadrangle accumulated, where i learn marching, where i learn drills, where we did our punishment with that kind of road for cars (chinese call ma3 lu4) under hot sun, where we had all kinds of fun activities,where we take over as leaders and lastyl where we had our passing out parade at that stretch of road, filling with emotional tears. Coincidently, it was a raining day. Now, it is left with best memory in our heart.

Ocassionally, when I was taking bus on the way to school, I will never fail to look at the locked old sec school to reminisce the past. hahaha...afterall, it is a place where i grown up into a teenager.

Well, there is really too much to recall....think i shall stop here..hahaha..tired now la...tomorrow shall be the beginning of the new month, think will be quite busy...anyway, it'S tImE tO pLaY hArD aNd tRaIn hArD nOw....

hohoho...another week past...2 papers finish already, namely ECSA and OOAD, now left with WSAD..hai!~ another killer paper...a bit worried..

Well, last wk study week..go study..but somehow cannot absorb too much..hahha..went to ubin on sat for recee with my area. i really worried that i cannot memorise the route lor...die...nvm, cadets die with me then...lol... took some pictures, nice view from the top..hahaa...

Then today OOAD paper, think maybe can pass ba..cos get back both assignment, both pass...ECSA not too sure, cos thr paper like don't know much, depend on the coursework lor...

Thurs last paper...would be the last paper, last exams for most of my classmates le...sad man... anyway, must stay in contact.

Recee at ubin. Nice view...




aaron: hey, what's that?
wj: what thing?i also want to see leh
hy: me also..got chio bu ahz?
hs: how can that possible when i am around!!!

MP group members

















My MP computer which accompany me for
1 semester...although it is very very slow...

Today finally marks the end of FYP...kind of miss those period...

Go to sch at 7 plus in order to hand up the report at 9am. Well, need to print out the report before handing it. So go sch early and try see sch lab got open or not...in the end, all labs not open. Then go to wait for library to open at 8.30am for the level one printing service. 8.30am, a lot of people rushing in for the shop. Report 100 plus pages, though the printer is fast, still have to wait quite long to wait for others to finish printing. After printing, still need to queue up the long queue for binding. Inside only got 2 workers, only 1 binding machine, meaning only one person is doing the binding thing. Imgine how long we have been waiting..each group need to hand in 2 copies of report, so 2 bindings is done per person in the queue, waited almost an hour. After that, rush up to hand the report, by then it was alraedy 10.20am already...Hope won't penalise as only 10 groups of the whole cohort handed on 9am. No choice la, the timing so jialat, mon 9am leh..can't expect people to print on fri mah, weekend is the best time to chiong report.

After that, faster chiong to MP lab to set up out project and get ready for evaluation. By right should reach at 10am, but we reach at 10.25 instead, lugi 25 minutes.hahahaa...well, didn't really went through smoothly. Don't know why the database cannot run, then no choice we cannot do the actual demo, but to run on the localhost instead. So not sure if still can have better marks or not..

Went to TM to watch movie. Watch the 'ghost game'. Not too bad la, the ending a bit unexpected for me...overall quite ok. Went for lunch at 3pm at pasta mania, hungry lor...Went home after lunch. FYP has ended. Now comes exams, after that? hai!~ not sure when gonna meet up after exams. It seems that time really flies. Miss those class activity such as class chalet, even though not very sucessful.hahaha...hope to have the last one before graduate?hahaa...don't know la..just have many thoughts about graduation now. You guys graduate le, perhaps in a next few years we may meet up in your wedding instead? or am i thinking too much le? but time really flies leh..hahahaa..well, for now, gotta go study first..My MP lab and computer, i will miss you...

Last week was a busy week...start from last mon..It was my CMSK 4 presentation..initially feel a bit not ready, because really not much ready for this final presentation. My group is the last group to present. The LT is cold and the nervous in me is making me even colder, so went to toilet twice for the hand dryer.Well, the presentation is finally over. I think that this time i did not too bad la, compare the week before which is the rehearsal, when i a bit screw up.hahaha...but teacher didn't say anything yet, so don't know good or not.

Tues was attempting to do WSAD assignment but like not much work done. Congrats to juniors. First time with them. My fitness test is bad...

Wed went for the MP evaluation briefing. Almost fall asleep when he was briefing the slides. The report really need to be damn good lor. As in quite strict with it as it is MP report.

Fri submission of the assignment, then being remind that OOAD due date is 4 days later, but we are learning the coding part on fri only, 4 days time where got enough time to finish it? As subbmission time is getting nearer, people were getting panic already starting to seek help. Then when the time strike 5, many were still editing the codes or report, printing out the necessary things and quickly run to teacher to submit. This feel really sucks, but this may be the last time to have this feeling already...now left with OOAD, ECSA, CMSK 4 and lastly MP. 4 more things to hand up within 2 weeks? where got time to study?

Weekend is time for kallang le...had a bit of tan line now? hahahaa...keep it up juniors!~

National day is near...looking forward to it...

Really hate coding...but actually once you know it well, it can be quite fun one, but not for me..sucks...due date is really very soon...i want holiday!!

Well, who says training cannot be fun? some of us had already experience it.hahaha... i want more of it!!

Terence acting gay...

Last week is really a good week for weight gaining session. Had buffet on friday night at Seoul Garden Bugis, treat by Mr Sandhu. It was like a BDS CIs gathering ba..hahaha..of course with some of the TOs. CIs who went for the dinner got terence, aaron, bendy, hui san, khadijah and me. Poor anson couldn't attend because of his dog who fell ill that day. Poor Hong yi couldn't attend the dinner also. Anyway, it was quite a great meal. Long time no buffet already...quite shiok..haha...

Sunday is the BBQ by the sec 3s. Just another typical BBQ, very standard..haha...Shu yu's driving is scary!!~~~~ Training, HERE I COME....

All the best to terence who is serving the nation on this friday.

Our dinner for the day:cOoKiEs

All thanks to michelle on thurs..hahaa..(you ask me to blog this one ahz). Bring me walk merry-go-round to the bus stop. Your short distance is really 'short' lor...hahaa....

Yesterday went to have meal with the guys, not bad la...hahaa...but not filling..haha...1st time eat it and the mussle(correct spelling right?), not too bad...then go for part 2 of the eating session, maybe next time can try simpang one?

One week passes very fast, this sem like going to end soon...

Lastly, all the best to waitat and weibin who went to serve the nation yesterday...

Last week sucks man!~Sick...the feeling sucks. Since tue morning feeling weird already, all the way to thurs, so worry cannot recover in time for a very important event. But thank god, feeling much better on sat. Take MC for wed and thurs because got lab and tutorial, cannot skip without valid reason. It was the first time I take MC since I enter poly lor...First time submit the MC into the pigeon hole. Well, the worse will be away and better moments will be replaced.hahaa...sat and sun was the happiest day of that week for everyone in the team. Tough war were on. A lot of strong teams were on Bedok Reservior to fight for their medals. Medals you don't hope for it, you earn for it. Blood + sweat + hardwork + time + lots of sacrifices = medal + recognition.

Looking at the videos, hearing all the screaming of joy and excitement and laughter from the seniors and audiences, all these are definitely worth the while. Enjoy the moment, enjoy the fruit of the hard work, enjoy TPDB!

Today trying hard to do the pile of assignment..well...still trying hard...bloody hell, so sian...no mood to do anything, except chilling...hahaha....today weekdays of the term break...sian..mon sch resume...2nd week of break quite a lot of things, firstly got BDS NPCC camp,POP etc. went for it, but like doing nothing because like always disappear from the camp leh...no choice..the feeling towards this POP like quite different from last few years' POP...hahaa..think i am getting older?8 years le..is it long?terence, my batchmate since sec 1 till now, now that he is passing out...kati also, my senior, who has been contributing for 9 years. Trash talk session during camp among us, someone say i didn't commit a lot to the unit. hahaha...sometimes quite hard to find time la..please understand..hahaa...next parade would be a start of another chapter of the unit, because next batch taking over...

8 more days to war, again...looking forward yet nervous..hahaha...i want more of it!!

WORK HARD GUYS!!! !)

Coughing like getting worse leh....Don't why like since yesterday...Of all the time...hai!~ Week 8 now, seems like a bit behind time for the project according to the project plan. :p Today went for the freshie training, overall is alright.2 more days to big day...So fast..but looking forward to it...hahaha...cannot be polite to them even though it's a POL-ITE race. Term break got a lot of programmes coming up...

Hohoho...term test over=term break...but...project..sian la...i think the holiday is used up for training and PROJECT. 1st paper, ECSA, don't think can leh, like got a lot didn't really know. Next is WSAD. Also not much better lor, write code, i think more like writing mars language lor, don't what I am writing,sure lost a lot of marks. Lastly, OOAD, the subject which i want to aim higher, but seems like very rush..like not enough time to finish, then i anyhow do. 3 subject so jia lat...hai!~ Cheese cake is nice, must go again next time!!

It's getting closer already. Start counting the number of days now...

Sometimes things are so unpredictable, when you think it won't happen, but it really happens. However, believing in yourself is the important key to find the path to success and that definitely beats having to think negatively. Having the correct mindset or metality is essential in successing. But how many people actually have such strong metality? The story of the bridge, remember it!~=)

today friday, which a slacker day compared to other days because only got OOAD lab, 12 to 2. Looking forward for today because can go town after lesson..haha...like long time no go le lor...anyway, today is also CCN day, where TP student can work to gain experience by selling their products. A little surprising that I am not interested in it. I didn't even bother to walk pass the ITAS school concourse to just pass by lor, i actually walk from level 6, then walk to AS school then faster walk through the way, thinking that concourse is too crowded. Talking about CCA day, can still remember last year's CCN day?that time was in august, when i just join dragon boat, then they ask us, the juniors, to help in the booth. Due to the project due, i can't make it. Can still remember what the booth is doing lor...hahaha...(go recall if you have forgotten). Few of us got went to the booth just see see, at the same time i think also got a bit of team bonding la, because that time still not close to each other yet.

Can also remember that day i was at IT sch level 2 lab doing DBSY assignment, i think due to CCN day, not a lot of people were there. Got me, mich, andy etc. Andy was buying the budget pizza from one of the stall into the lab, then the fat lab technician suddenly came in, saw the tray of pizza beside the monitor and the lid was left open, she was reprimanding andy for bringing in the pizza, then andy reply say, "We didn't eat, we just bring in and put there only"(something like that la), the technician nothing to say lor. But it was very obvious that he was eating in the lab already lor.andy then apologized. I think the technician must be hungry when she saw the pizza la..lazy go buy then go scold people..hahaha...that night do till very late lor..that subject sucks by the way...

Since talk about last year, might as well talk about 2 years ago ba, when C079 were in year 1. Still remember what we sell mah C079? Sell BBQ food!! We actually come to sch early to BBQ the food at the back of the IT sch staircase. Can still remember that packet of otah, don't why we left it on the floor, didn't BBQ it, in the end wasted lor. Can still remember we make a loss lor!! Pay $10 for the goods and get back $9 only..hahaa...But the class were puting effort in selling out items, treat it as bonding session lor..hahaa...

Coming back about today, went town after lesson. Walk and walk and walk, the rest and walk and rest. In the end didn't buy anything, can't really find what i want to buy. Jia Fu says he will be leaving Singapore after his studies, serious?

Week 6 is near...

These few days(or rather, these many days) has been really very busy. A lots of things, then somehow not enough sleep, i guess majority of them also..then recently, many of us are getting sick already, hope all of us get well soon. From today onwards, i will be using another paddle already, hope my paddle no. 6 don't miss me so much..hahahaha...anyway, mind has got to be stronger, stronger, stronger!!! The future lies in us already, if we don't work for it, who will? tomorrow is my day off.=)

now week 2 le...only week 2 lor, but it seems to have a lots of things to do already...how?these few days quite tired, because got training and research etc to do...june race is coming soon, got to buck up on training and those tons of stupid homework, damn sian lor....that's life i guess....anyway, saw sanjeewani just now, my batchmate in NPCC during secondary school days, saw her in TP. She now in year 1 after completing ITE. Time really flies, My batch some graduated, some just come in and yet some who are still working hard, maybe few years later if want to meet up will be even harder le..haha...Well, just want to getsome sleep now...haha...ZZzz...

well, quite lazy to blog recently...hahaa...Monday get to know FYP grouping through the briefing...quite happy that it doesn't affect me of taking FYP this semester and also, the grouping remains the same, no changes at all, quite lucky, but the proposal requires some changes. Our so-call teacher-in-charge is Peter Choy, the moustache(dunno how to spell) guy. Hope can communicate with him well...

Today is the preparation for the Temasek Regatta, go there tie drum, fix seat etc...today get to learn a bit of coxing, realise it's not easy being a coxswain, but feels good learning new things la. Today everything goes smoothly. After that, we went to TM watch ice age 2 with teammates. The movie alright la, quite lame also..hahaa...looking forward for the Temasek Regatta, but definitely NOT monday, which is the school reopening...damn sian....NOOOooooo....

The trip is definitely worth what we are paying for. It is another unforgetable experience...

dAy 1:
take our pinky 'shan he' bus and reach our M-Suites Hotel at around 4 plus. The hotel is quite good la, given the price we are paying for. Check in with my roommates, eDwIn(GL), tOrTaI, bErNiE and me. We slack a while then go for dinner at the NEAREST food court. 1st meal there was quite great,had zhu chao and satay. Thanks for the satay, sean. After that go hak loon room for briefing, before that was pre-bedtime story by ser kian.

dAy 2:
wake up around 7 plus, had breakfast and then take our paddle to the race venue for checking. The guys had some practice row there, then we proceed for lunch and rest a while before the race begins.1st day not a lot of races, but everything seems to be going smoothly. same thing, dinner, briefing and sleep after da chang jin(which is not allowed as all are to be in bed at 10pm!!!)

dAy 3:
wake up around 7 plus, had breakfast and carry on with our race, very important race. All of us really put in our very best to get what we want. When we finish the ending line, phew... it is a very tiring day for some of them as they will be having a lot of races to go. but guys, you all really done a good job! after that zhu chao again for dinner...hahaha... then debrief(include pre-bedtime story by ser kian) and ZZzzzz...

dAy 4:
wake up early again for the last day of race and the closing ceremony. Again, our team did our best for it. We then watch the rest of the race, and cheer for our singapore team. After that, slack slack till the plaque presentation and finally, going back to hotel and pack up already. After debrief, take out pinky bus back to TP...had dinner with some of the guys and home sweet home...

special thanks to our camera man, video-man and all those looking after the things. this shall be another valuable experience for us...

also to all those graduating seniors(wei bin, kang wei, dion, waitat, chin boon, joshua and zhi yong), this may be the really last race with you guys, really enjoy going thick and thin with you all...you guys will not be forgotten..

today is my day...hahaa....well, 1st of all, would like to thank all those people for remembering this day by sending me greeting message and testimonial.

Went to training as usual today, but before that, met my teammates for lunch 1st at mensa, after that slack at library. It rains heavily again today, bedok interchange inside the lanes and walking way were also flooded. On the way to school, the road under the bridge near BGS was again flooded with rain water, just like yesterday. But thank god the bus don't have to stop.

The training today is quite relaxing ba...get to see those people camping, playing those 'standard' games. Looking forward to stay with my roommates in 2 days time...hahaa... Lastly, would like to thank my teammates for the present(with the receipt inside the plastic bag!!), still don't know who they are yet..hahaha...anyway, 40 minutes before today ends.Really like to thank all of you. You all are great people!~

today's blog a bit long, so readers, please read patiently....

wake up early in the morning today to go for the infotainment trip, but went into the LT late with ze feng. Both of us are in group B, we will be going to different venue as group A. Group A going Creative and god-knows where. And for group B.....any idea where mah??hehehee...1st venue...MEDIACORP!! OMG!~ was like happy lor...why happy?hahaha...typical thinking la...hope to see stars lor..haha..went under TVMobile. The bus was like climbing the hill, took 5 minutes to reach the top. When we walk down from our bus, saw 2 groups of those eat-alraedy-nothing-to-do girls, seems to be waiting for their stars and get their signature. Today is monday, they no need to go school? After exploring around, we went to their canteen. Don't know got how many canteen there, but the one we went is a bit old la...haha...not too bad, the food not too expensive also...ze feng and i was like hoping to see stars at the canteen, since it is lunch hour...hai!~ only saw moses lim, than no more already, then we set off to our 2nd destination which is damn boring one, National Library at Bugis area. When the bus was heading down the hill, another bus was going up. I saw the Campus Superstar 2006, Zhi Yang is inside with don't know who.

Go there wait for the host to bring us in, very long. Here comes the English man(angmoh guy) to brief us on the website. It was really boring man, keeping falling asleep. After that, the guides bring us to explore the library. The library is really huge, 16 storey!! But we only explore some of the levels only. After that went back to TP.

On the way back, raining heavily. Reach TP, I slack at the library a while waiting for the rain to get smaller, but it is really a waste of my time. Then sms waitat to meet me at bedok interchange at 5.45pm as he got something to pass me. Board the bus 69 at around 5.25pm. By right will not late de....However, due to unforeen circumstances, reach there at 6.45pm?hahaha...Here comes another part of the stories....

Few stops after TP is the condominium there,waited 5 mins, 10 mins, even 15 mins, the bus is NOT moving at all. Passengers are getting impatient of course, thinking what the hell is happening. Some wanted to get down, but cannot as the bus is not very near at the bus stop. I sms-ed waitat about it and tell him that I will be late, he says that under the bridge near Bedok Green Sec. there flood. After trapping inside the bus for 30 mins, the driver open the door, all passenger got off and walk lor(no choice). For me got to walk back to interchange. Along the way, saw a very long strench of road with a lot of buses, i think got 3Xno.18, 3Xno.69,2Xno.168, got bus 18 and a lot, all without passenger already...When reach the flooded area, i then know how badly it is lor. On the way also saw some old folks and young kids getting down from the bus and walk. Old folks leh....hai!~ young kids also, hope they don't lost their way man.

Walk...walk..finally reach interchange..then saw waitat.Feel a bit bad for making him to wait for an hour...hahaha...After that, go home le...today is like very 'happening' lor..hahaa...
