Out with Michelle and yanfen to town yesterday... Had lunch at MOS burger and pool at Kpool... Haha... Went home for dinner after that.

My desktop has decided to go nuts... As I was trying to type a new entry for my blog yesterday night, it blank out and decided never to boot again... I couldn't even reformat it... I am now trying to on and off the power supply until it can start up and boot from the winxp CD. Chances are slim. Haiz... It decided to die... sobz...

Out with Abner yesterday for G2000 again... "-_- He wants to buy a business shirt and tie for the resume photo shoot. I bought a tie too... I never expect ties to be so expensive. Sobz... I am broke now. Haha... Full of jokes... Thanks Abner for telling his new target P** S** I am sissy. People first time see me say lidat... *&&^%*$*$&! She is chio mans... Haha... Abner can't stop doing stupid poses and say that he is handsome that way... Clearly want to force me to laugh non-stop and vomit everything I ate lorz... Haha...

Dinner at Imperial Treasure. It is seriously GOOD!!! Although, it is supposed to be a clone and second to Crystal Jade, I think that the food, service and ambience of the restuarant is ten thousand times better than Crystal Jade. I wonder why so many people still go to Crystal Jade when their staff hardly even smile at you and like to throw the plates on your table while annonucing the name of the dish in a "I can't be bothered" tone.

Weather is weird these days, have been raining non-stop... Singapore is no longer a city with summer whole year round. It feels more like winter now... Shivers... The weather makes me lazy - lazy to dress up and style my hair. So I went out in a REEF tee, black berms and a black cap. Abner says I look very small boy in that outfit. Haha... Walau... Got mehz? I think I look cool lorz... Hahaha... Okie back to the weird weather, the sky is forever overcast. Despite that, I pulled myself out of bed at 730am to go for a run because my tummy is growing like as though I am 4 months pregnant. Crunches don't help because its train the muscles underneath the fats. And when the muscles are built the tummy become bigger because the fats aren't bruned off just by doing crunches. Hence, running is the only choice. Actually, I don't have to worry about losing my fats i put now... Burn them all off and my muscles will be more defined, just that it will look smaller lorz. Nevermind, can always train and make it grow bigger one. Haha...

Tuition in the afternoon... The kid is amazing ethu about his work. "What are we gonna do today? Got what homework huh? So little?" OMG!!! I tink he got spilt personalities.... Last week he cried and complained that homework was too much. This week he wants more. Haha... Mayb my preachings last week worked. And of course, at long long long long last I got my tutition fees. ZZzzzzzz.... Time for a afternoon nap...

Was reading Men's Health yesterday and I picked up some interesting points... Haha...

1. How to stay energised all day?
Eat within an hour after you wake up. This is because every morning, after eight hours of sleep, your body is starving and tired due to a drop in energy-producing hromones insulin and leptin. Hence, eating within a hour after waking up help bring them back up and you'll start your day energized.

2. Women are better investors than men.
"Women treat investments like relationships: They conscientiously ponder the stability of an investment and whether it will pay off in the long run. So they sink their money in balanced low-risk portfolios that favour stocks from traditional industries like retail and utilities." On the other hand, men were more likely to seek out high-tech, agressive and speculative companies and sector and they traded more often. As such, returns are diminished by trading costs, consequently resulting in mens portfolio enjoying lower returns.

Its a sunny morning finally!! I went for a swim. Got a teeny weeny bit tanned because the rain came after a hour or so. "-_-

I detest empty promises!! Where are my tuition fees?? From sunday until now... I waited... and waited and waited... until today... Never transfer the money to me. Cannot live up to the promise don't promise lahz. Just tell me you will give me the money by when. Well... What can I say? Haiz...

Something started to make me think whether I in the right course yesterday. I feel so distant, far away, and indeed a total stranger to my course. So what if I study so hard and know everything within the books and notes to score As? Will the As get me anywhere? Do I know any thing beyond the books? The answer is mostly NO... I start to wonder if I will get a satisfying career next time in this way... I start to worry if I will excel and build a good career next time or will I be stuck as a lowly office worker all my life? As compared to some or in fact many others, I feel so insignificant and incapable whenever they wield their knowledge in the area.

But well... There are still 2 years for me to enrich myself and develop an intense interest in the area of my specialisation. Haha... We crave our own road... Perhaps my road is just rougher because I started a lot later than many others. Jia you to myself.

Haha... The clouds are irritating... One minute they cover the sun one minute it move away and the sun comes out. Now the sky is turning dark... ARGH!!! I want a tan badly... I want to go swim... Haiz... Rain rain go away come again another day!!!!! Haha...

Okie... Nice song by JJ Lin. Enjoy... Direct translation of the song title... "Big Men Small Girl"... Haha...

Confined at home for the whole morning as it is raining. I can't go swimming. Sianz... So I found something to do. Haha... pack my cupboard. Found lots of stuff from the past. Memories. Haha... I found my sec sch and jc band reference file. WOW!!! There were lots of scores inside. OMG!! I have played more than a thousand pieces of music in the past 8 years of playing my flute. I miss playing those pieces... Folk Song Suite, El Camino Real, Shirim, Omens of Love and many many more... I want a Miyazawa Flute now to play all these pieces...

Haha... other interesting things found

1. Love letters from my band junior in sec sch and jc. I am such a nice guy... All my juniors like me. Hahah... =X

2. Colourful projects done in the sec sch days. I was so creative then. There was one on a senior citizen's apartment and I called it the "Powerunit". Hahahaha... The idea was you no need keys to enter the house... its a biometric system to enhance security so that no bad guys can enter. No switches in the house... Sensor operated lightings, and an universal remote control to control all electrical appliances at home. Haha... And the amazing thing is I drew every part of the house... it is so nice lahz... I even designed the remote control which is like easier for people's hand to hold and a nice grip so that old people won't drop it easily. I doubt I can draw all those things now.

3. My sec sch ART portfolio. WOOO~ Its all so nice... I can't believe I drew all those things and coloured them with coloured pencils. Haha...

4. Presents from band juniors and seniors. Cards, small handmade ornaments... =]

5. Stuff that reminds me of the last relationship... The book that records everywhere we go and everything we did... Ticket stubs, receipts all pasted nicely with comments by me... which I intend to give her one of those days. But... It ended... So now that it is uncovered... It is meaningless since she has found happiness with someone else... I threw it away and still felt quite upset... Do I still love her? Only I know the answer. Hahaha... Lets not think about it anymore... Life goes on... =]

To end off... A nice song for everyone...

Tuition today. Haha... I feel so mighty powerful. My preachings (mind you not scoldings, some more in a nice friendly tone at a hearable volume) made the naughty tuition kid who swear to crush her mum's va***** cry so hard. He really did cry like as though I spank his buttocks or what. Well... I hope he improve his irritating attitude after my preachings. Haha... Its the fourth lesson and once again I didn't get my tuition fees. I seem to always get delayed payment. I wonder how many times the parents expect me to call them to tell them "Please PAY UP NOW!!!!" No wonder people always say that money is hard earned. Hahaha...

Tomorrow, I am accompanying my mum to SGH for her followup. Previously, the doctors discovered a lump on her leg and after various scans it seems that the doctors couldn't determine what the lump is. So tomorrow is a followup to see if they can tell us what the lump is. So scary... It better be nothing wrong, just some fats that is grown out of place. Prays... I seem more scared than my mum. =\

Accompanied Abner to the G2000 sale to get his blazer. Haha... Because he say that his AB214 needs that. Haha... Well when I take AB214 I am just fucking going to heck care and just wear a business shirt and pants for presentations just like AB114 when the whole class wore a tie and I didn't. Maybe thats why I got B+ when my presentation was rated HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH. Haha... Everything HIGH means A what, why B+ in the end? Haha...

Abner told me about the NBS camp. So I asked how's the intake this sem? And he replied one word CHUI!!! Haha... Damn funny. Cos they are all straight A students who clearly don't pay attention to their appearances and apparently damn cmi. Haha... Then he turn around and say but got some not bad. And he kept telling me got this girl not bad. Hahhaa... My response was "go for it lahz..." And he replied maybe after exams. Exams like how far away? JOKES... He also said he is going to have sex only after he got married. Haha... My response was "Mai lai lahz... talk cock..." Hahhaa... Really what... In these days... Such things is is... You know... quite common because certain situation and certain circumstances it just comes naturally. So... my repsonse... Then he said his friends also said the exact same thing. Damn funny.

Okie enough about sex. Hahaha... Make me sound like a dirty old man. Okie music for everyone. 改变自己 and 落葉歸根- 王力宏 MV

张栋梁 - 陌路 MV
I like the lyrics, because its so true. Let go if you can't give the other party happiness because the relationship cannot go on like this...

Went to school to participate in some research program called "Creativity in Virtual Teams". And when I reached the venue, I must say that I am damn "lucky" today... Really "lucky" to the core. I am too lazy to explain why I am so "lucky" anymore. Its time to brace up and make sure I won't be this "lucky" for the rest of the holidays anymore. Damn tired. Clara asked me out just now. Sorry not tonight. Today is one of the worst days I had. Bad mood. I shall just hibernate at home mans.

Another part of my lacoste sneakers came off. Oh great... I am just waiting for everything to come off. Haha... I can't find any nice shoes to replace it. I saw a white canvas shoe in River Island. It looks good but its white like school shoes. Haha... So hesitating whether to buy. Meanwhile, just let the lacoste shoe break to bits. Haha...

I am hungry. I was craving for tako pachi. So I alighted at City Hall to go to WOW Tako in Raffles City whereby I can get 2 boxes for just $3.50 upon presenting my CapitalVisa. Original price is one box 2.20 lorz. But... Guess what? When I reached there... WTF... CLOSED???? Sianz half. Made a wasted trip.

But good news is some small money is coming in this friday. Meeting someone to sell my 2nd hand t-shirts which I decided that I am not going to wear anymore. Haha... Posted photos of them on a forum and there were really people who wants to buy. Haha... Response was bad at the start but after the first piece was sold, people started asking about the rest. I hope I can sell all... Wee~ Haha... Money money come. I am damn money faced. I had this crazy idea of revamping my old clothes and selling them away. Haha... I tink its a stupid idea but since I am rotting at home, I can wield my creativity and try it out. No harm mahz... Cost is almost ZERO because my house got all the leftovers from my mum's work last time which amounts to sufficient materials. Haha... Wish me luck. =]

My timetable has finally been finalised. I had no choice but to drop AB228A in order to take AA201. It is still a five day week but it is not very xiong lahz... It will just be time wasted travelling. Nvm... Make do with what we have got and make full use of the situation. In this ever changing society, we must learn to work and adapt to situations that aren't in our favour. So... Its a training for me. Haha... Its a challenge to manage time effectively with this kind of timetable.

Today went KTV at long last. Haha... First KTV outing in the holidays. Haha.. Very long never sing. Sing like sai. Tempo wrong, lots of nasal voice and pitching problems. Haha... I must hide in my room to practice more. Haha...

Went swimming today as I saw that the skies were clear and the sun is out. Unfortunately, when i reached the swimming pool, there were huge pieces of dark clouds covering the sky. No sun at all. Sianz... When I left the clouds got blown away and the sun came out. Darns. Why like that? =[

I am having a breakout... everywhere.... Yes... everywhere... Not only the face, the neck, the back and my arms. OMG!!! All the red spots... Why??? I bath everyday one lorz... Don't know whats wrong mans... I tink got to go see doctor liaoz. Haiz... Money money money... How I wish i can just rip off my lousy sensitive skin and implant a smooth perfect skin. Or can I wish for everything to disappear by the time I wake up tomorrow morning? What kind of lousy bad luck am I getting this holidays? First, salary cocked up. Then, lousy timetable. Now, my body is going haywire. Sobz... Bad luck just ruin your mood. =[

A tag from anonymous - a fren from jc. My previous blog entry must have been misunderstood. Probably, scared off anonymous, made him/her angry, sad, annoyed. But, well I will just express what I was feeling when I wrote the previous entry.

I am not saying I haven't made any good friends in JC. I have met wonderful people like clara, dot and my flute section. But, I feel distant from most of them. Good friends as they are, I myself know that we actually haven't got much to talk to each other about. Good friends as they are, we don't chat and meet often. That is what I meant by not close. Everytime I see sad personal messages on their MSN nick, I feel sad for them as well. I want to talk to them , I want to help them, but, I feel that I can't do much for them. I don't know how to comfort them, I don't know how to make them feel better, I am scared that I will annoy them more than make them feel better. That is what I meant by not close.

I feel depressed because I haven't put in enough effort in the past to keep all of these wonderful people closer to me. Now that everyone have their own life, I feel that it is hard to catch up with what I have missed in the past. Thats why I said I have wasted the first half of my life.

So, to end off, although I feel distant from all these wonderful frens from JC, I will always regard you all as good frens and part of my memories. =]

As for the "I wonder if anyone remembers me" its for a particular group of people whom I thought were my best frens in JC but in the end... ... I don't know what to say...

I am a crazy fan of the brand Fred Perry. Haha... I bid for a fred perry polo tee on ebay and got it at $37.00. It looks nice in the picture but the real shirt don't look as good. But, the good thing is the cutting is very nice. It fits well. The one I got is vintage, so you won't see the colour in the retail stores anymore. Muhahaha... Maybe I am the only one in singapore wearing that colour. It is a brownish green colour with blue and brown pipings. The new range in Tangs Vivo has very nice colours. But, the cutting sucks... I wonder why they got the ones with sizes S, M and L. Last time, they got the ones with like measurements and there were like 6 sizes and you can try the one that fits you the best. I don't know why I like the polos from Fred Perry so much that I am addicted to getting more of it. I just saw a one with nice colourway on ebay. WOW!! Its white with green pipings. Its seriously a bloody nice colour. But its like too expensive lorz... Maybe if I got ten thousand dollars I will go and buy. Haha... Meanwhile we can onli look at the pictures. Tada!!!

Streak of ill-fate. Or should I say extreme bad luck. Today, I happily went to school to register for my subjects only to find out that second spec students have to register earlier on. But I thought I check STARs it said 12 July that time what... So... I never ever thought that they will send an email to say change. Sucks... I run around the school like a mad man looking for help. Went to NBS office... Bloody bad attitude from the subject registration office. "Its your problem wait for add drop lorz." WTF!!! Please go and die big time. So... No choice I run to the Student's affairs centre level 1 Office of Admission Systems for help. Bloody hell... So easy lahz... Just explain to them and they help you open up the server for you to register the subjects. Unfortuantely, due to the delay from the running around searching for help all the slots I want got no more vacancies!!! Best now I am like a 5 day week timetable. May this be a blessing in disguise. I kept telling myself, one subject one day will give me more focus and I can get better grades from this sai timetable. And... The biggest cock up is... Research methods is a stipulated core for Year 2 Sem2. Its like... Tu~~~~~ Then why did it appear in the class schedule? Now I am like short of one core subject to top my AUs to 20. Request form submitted to ask for help, but according to my bad experience with NBS admin, I feel that there is a 80% chance they will NOT do anything about it until I step into Loh Mei Yin's office again to BEG for help.

Nvm about the bad luck... After bad luck comes good luck... May I be blessed with extreme good luck in the coming sem. Watched Harry Potter just now with Yanwei, Yihan, Eugene and Kavan. It was kinda boring in the front but the fighting towards the end was not bad. Haha... Took a cab home after that. The cab driver is damn talkative. Especially when I am in bad mood don't talk so much to irritate me lahz!!! SHUT UP!!! Talk talk talk non-stop... You poly student ah? Haha... Like why the whole world thinks I am poly student? Not say I got anything against poly student but do I not look damn intelligent to symbolise a uni student? Haha... Okie... End of story. Good luck good luck come all the way come all the way TO MEEEEEEEEE!!!!! Bad luck shoo shoo shoo GO FAR FAR AWAY!!!!!

The sun is hiding himself recently. I wanted to go swimming today but there isn't much sun. So decided not to go. I went swimming yesterday already and its really a good exercise. Haha... I'm loving it. Haha... On one hand you can give yourself a nice tan and on the other you can exercise almost the whole body - that is provided you do the strokes properly. I follow the guidelines given by mens health to execute the strokes properly. It actually worked lehz... I could actually feel that when swimming it works the abs as well... something which has never been worked when i swimmed last time. Well... talk so much about training... I am still skinny bamboo no.1. Haha... But well... It takes time to bulk up... so I have to be patient to see results... No results also nvm... At least you are exercising and keeping yourself fit. =]

I watched 超级星光大道 finals yesterday as well. Oh my... The participants could really sing... Salutes. Comparing to the campus superstar I watched at night, aiyo... its like a big difference. Campus superstar participants commit many mistakes. Tempo wrong, pitching wrong, lots of nasal voice. But okie lahz... campus superstar still young mahz... so got lots of mistakes is acceptable. Haha...

Its finally monday and the time has come for me to go to recruit express to make a confrontation. I have been whining about my pay on msn to various people. Haha... Oppz... Sorry peeps... I bet its annoying. Its just me and my nature to whine about things that are against me, just like a kid or a girl. OMG!! I think I should seriously change.

But thanks to all those who are always there to listen to me. Never once did they brush me off, never once did they just log off because they are annoyed by my whining, never once they failed to reply chills and words of encouragement. These are what I call true friends. These people you all know who you are. I will extend my helping hand to you all if you all need any help. As for people who aren't there for me, I will also help you. I am a nice guy. Haha... OMG!! Self-praise. Back to the topic of being there for me, its not say I am damn dependent and I need people to encourage me here and there and not being able to stand alone strongly. But its just when you feel down, people assure you that they support you and makes you feel that "oh my, I still have this friend here who believes me and want to help me."

Its a Saturday... The rotting at home campiagn have officially started!!! Haha... It feels so good to be able to rot around at home doing nothing. Okie... Not really doing nothing I am like cleaning and tidying my room for the whole day because when I was working I come home and throw everything everywhere and my mum was lazy to tidy it for me. Haha... Then, I tried to clean my lacoste sneakers. I have never ever cleaned it since I bought it and wear it ten thousand times. It is like so dirty. Haha... So I tried to make it look new again. Unfortunately, everything start to come off while I was trying to clean it. The sneaker is falling apart soon. Sobz... Meaning I got to buy a new one... Don't know what sneakers should I buy... Jack Purcell? Lacoste again? Vans slip on? Pony?

Damn sianz... The recruit express credited the wrong salary into my bank account. Irritating. I forsee that I am going to recruit express to make noise again on monday. Haiz... Spoil image. I am super irritated with them. First, they forget to credit my salary. Now, they credit the wrong amount. Why are they so disorganised? I don't understand man. I don't trust this job agency anymore man. Give me so much trouble. And it is so obvious that there is communication break down in the company. Why? Because that time when I tender my resignation, my consultant was doing reservist, so I told his colleague who was in charged of his duties when he was away. Then guess what? When he was back he didn't know I tender resignation liaoz... Then I told him I told his colleague and I have given two weeks notice lorz... He was like in great disbelief. Whatever... I am just plain annoyed, irritated, fed out with Recruit Express.

Today is my last day of work. Haha... Full of jokes whole day. Enjoyable work experience even though its super tiring. Nothing much to say. Just want to type something on my blog. Haha... I am now a free man. Haha... Can go anywhere I like. Haha...

Today no work. Haha... Took off to go for the GIP Talk. Haha... Had lunch with susan at ichiban sushi in PS then headed for school for the talk. Haha... My big bowl of oreo cereal with milk in the morning make me not so hungry and I didn't eat much. Couldn't think of what to eat also. So we ate like few plates of sushi only.

The GIP Talk was boring. They are basically reading off the slides which is a duplicate of the booklet you get before entering the talk. So I decided that its a waste of my time and hence left halfway. Haha... My hair definitely attracted some attention. Its too light. People think I siaoz dye until like that. Whatever.

After leaving the talk at about 3pm, I thought it was still early so I went to Vivo City with the intention of taking a look at the Fred Perry apparels in Tangs. Omg! Its damn expensive. One polo tee for $159? One small canvas bag for $299? I went to River Island for the first time. Haha... Seriously I think their clothes are not bad. And their cutting are really ultra slim-fit. Haha... The xsmall is like so small, skinny me wear also like tight fit until cannot breath. Small is like also tight fit on me with one cm space. Haha... So in the end I got myself a M size graphic tee. Not bad... Just nice... I like it! But the price... okie lahz... almost the same as all the zara, topman, pull and bear. I found the v-neck t-shirt I have been looking for in River Island, you know those plain colours with some buttons on it? But its like so expensive for a basic looking t-shirt. So I decided not to buy. Haha... Thats all... Back to work again tml. 3 more days and I will be free. Haha...

And yes... I updated my playlist on my sidebar. Haha... All the JJ Lin new songs. Its just nice. His songs are not as soapy as typical chinese songs. So won't like make you so sad after listening to it. Haha... Enjoy... =]

Tuition in the morning... After that went to colour and highlight my hair. I must be mad... Don't know why suddenly I go and colour and highlight. The colour is too light... Looks weird. Nvm... Hair grows fast. Haha...
