Last day of the year

Last day of the year

31st dec. Last day of 2005. Shd i rejoice since it is the start of a new year or shd i look back into the memories of 2005? Tough qns right? Well 2005 is full of memorable stuff and also stuff that shd be erased frm memory. However 2005 is something to rem.. From NSF to student. Those still serving NS, your turn will come very soon. Then you can shout 'ORD lor'

3 more days left. Sch reopening on the 3th. So sianz. How come holidays so short. I haven't fully enjoyed myself. Next holiday must plan to go abroad. Japan, korea or aussie? Anyone want to sponsor? I know there's a lot of rich tai-tais here. Ada pls? Lol.

Just have a lunch buffet at Pariss. The courtesy of yy. Thankx yy for bringing me there. I have been wanting to pay that place a visit but it's too ex for me. There's lots of stuff to be eaten. I particularly liked the chocolate fountain. Reminds me of "charlie and the choco factory". Thank for arranging this but feels bad letting you treat sia.

Didn't know that registration of modules is such a hassle. To make a beautiful timtable, you have to think means and ways to accomodate all timings w/o overlapping each module. Tedious. I think my current timtable is the best i can create. Not going to think anymore. Hope i can get the electives i want. So far i tink Reb has the best timetable. Having a 4 day wk timetable. So shiok. Then canvassing at indoor stadium tml. I wonder how will the job be like on new yr eve. A new experience. Will it be fun or is just a dirty job? We shall see. (kc, be prepared. Lol)

Since it's going to be a new yr, there are stuff that I will love to have. Hey steve, when are u bringing the canadian babes to my hse? Yz, see the space below. *Hint hint..

I HOPE to have.....
  • a new bag to carry to school
  • new shirts,t-shirts,jeans to wear
  • a watch (a fossil watch will certainly delight me. Haha.)
  • board shorts (can be beach boy)
  • a new iriver mp3 flash player
  • a laptop (that you all can get to see me online more often)
  • a car of my own (I know is a bit far-fetch)
  • an air tix to aussie (it's quite cheap. lol)
  • some personalised gifts (can be cards or anything)
  • go xl hse to bai nian (expecting a FAT hongbao)
  • powerboat licence
  • learn wakeboard,snokerling,scuba-dive (ambitious right? rh u still interested?)
  • fun at FOC camp. (Time for me to sabo ppl)
  • dean list (slim chance though)

My wish-list very realistic right? Anyway not planning to have any celebration this year so anyone wants to date this ugly, lonely, poor guy? Haha.

Ginger breadman

Ohhhh. The legs are delicious.

Ginger breadman still smiling despite losing 2 legs

Eski Bar

Eski Bar

Getting more and more broke. Bdays and expensive dinner again. Bought a wallet for yz but he just got a new wallet. What a bad present. Then had dinner with ct,yz and jeff at swensons instead of food republic suggested eariler. I shall refrain from going out now.

Been hearing abt this Eski Bar for mths and finally been to there on the 26th dec. It was damm impromptu as jeff,chin tee,yz and me were at wheelock place before that. Then jeff suddenly thought of this Eski bar and since none of us had been to there, we decided to check out the place at Holland V.

We took a cab to Holland V since it doesn't cost much to travel from wheelock to holland v. Upon reaching there, we look out for the signboard "Eski Bar" and the signboard was quite striking.

The inside of the bar wasn't that cold and you definitely can survive w/o the sweaters. Lucky for us, we managed to find a place to settle down as the place was quite small. Perhaps is the luck of the bday boy, yz?

At there, we ordered drinks and start to play zhong ji mi ma. The forfeit is that the loser will go inside the subzero chamber for 2 mins. To endure 1 min inside the subzero chamber is okay but for 2 mins, it's freezzzzzzing cold. We played at few rounds and I went in the most. Damn suay. Yz u heng lor. We never sabo you much. Lol.

From there, I knew 2 gals, sky and amy. They were first-timers there too and brought some games to play in the chamber. They not scared of the coldness sia. But this amy very weird. From the way she asked me and yz qns, I suspect she's a graduate from NUS eng faculty and is coming to NTU soon, either as lecturer or donig her masters. Nice knowing them though. However, we should have brought some games too. Maybe next time. This place is quite a good place for small gathering. Waitresses are friendly too. You guys shd check this out.

Shuai-ges:

yz,jeff and me (poor chin tee being the photographer)

Chin tee at works again

Finally he gets to pose for a photo. Who wants his number?

The interior of the place

Nice decor right? All the things made of ice. Cold.

Didn't capture the snowman at the back properly.

It's winter time. Wear the jacket quite cool rite?

Reflection (part 2)

Reflection (part 2)

pf see, I'm doing the update now so don't complain liao. Results are out and thank goodness I never dabao. But this doesn't mean I'm satisfied with my results. The results are too sucky compared to my peers. Think next sem have to buck up liao.

Then today while chatting with serene, she suddenly asks what's my name sia. Feel like slapping her. Know me so long liao but duno my BIG name. Then she went on to say I never stress my name whenever i tok to her. Next time I'm going to stress my name liao.

Been staying at home recently to do up some xmas stuff. Staying at home can save money but is boring. Then ytd there is 40% discount for NETS user at world of sports. Last day liao. Managed to ask mum to buy teva scandals for me..

Just been to jurong point today to get a xmas present. There's so many sales going on. It's hard for one not to shop. But I stick to my objective and only browse around and went to perlini silver to get my stuff.

Well tml will be going to pasir ris park for foc bbq. Hope will be fun tml. One thing to worry: It has been raining everyday so RAIN god, you better don't rain tml. If you want, rain before i stepped out of my house. Haha.

So continuing part 2:

July:
A happening month.7 days in taipei. It always feel great to be in a foreign land. Their lifestyle differs from us and I notice pedestrains there do not have the right of way. So when crossing the roads, you better keep your eyes open.
After the taipei trip, I attended cac camp. I think the cac camp theme is abt me sia. Still rem the fish n co nite whereby my name can be heard for every game segment. The noise level was so deafening that I'm like the star for the nite. 'Thank' to velcoe ppl for making me so high-profile. Kaiching you should be thankful that the whole camp ppl get to know you too.
After which NTU sch term starts.

August:
First pageant for me. Not much ppl know abt this thing. Never call ppl to support too cos it's so embarrassing. The preparation was tiring and sucky. Didn't like the lifestyle at all. But have fun fitting clothes and knowing ppl from the ball comm side. Didn't win the paegant of cos. I'm too bo chup liao. Maybe I shd have take more pride in it. But anyway it's a good experience for me.

September:
Lectures, tutorials and tests. Boring lifestyle in school. No major event i guess.

Oct:
Same old rountine but this time round preparing for exams. Oh ya, still rem that stupid mich called me frm NZ, saying she's from ntu admin.

Nov:
Exams. What else? uni should scrape exams.

Dec:
Holidays. So envious of fren that went abroad for holidays. That idiot wl went gold coast. Wei aun go turkey. And ada go turkey too. I think they want to eat turkey from Turkey. The turkey over there must be delicious. Well holidays are ending soon, so u folks enjoy your remaining holidays.

Reflections of this year( part 1)

Reflections of this yr (part 1)

Spend the whole day nua-ing at home. Don't want to do anything and too broke to do anything too. Have to curb my spending if not I will be spending the remaining holidays at home.

Just asked a few chaps to play bball tml and the response is not bad. But then there's this particular yeng hoe who is so wishy washy. Can't stand ppl that are so indecisive. If you want to play just say okay. Don't need to ask this ask that. It's a complete WASTE of time and sms. If I can't find enough ppl, I will tell you so what's there to worry? Heard from other ppl that asking you is like asking gal to go out like that. Don't think you are like that in the past. What has nus done to you? You shd buck up on your social etiquette. Anyway don't think you are reading this. If you happen to know this blog then let this be a reminder to you.

Well end of yr is nearing but what have I done in this yr? Quite a fruitful year. Update me if I forgot some events. Part 1:

Jan:
The start of 2005. Had a 21st bday celebration with close frens from everywhere. May it be pri,sec,jc or outside frenx. Truly enjoy their company.
Deaparture for NZ army trip for 3 wks. Before the trip, the feeling wasn't good as I was one of the few ones who are chosen to go on an exercise before ORD. During the trip, the feeling had changed and the exercise ground is beautiful.Compared to local exercise gound, this is motivating. Their army camp feels liek a chalet. Get to tour around the city of auckland and learn more about their lifestyle. Definitely an eye-opener.

Feb:
Clearing off and leave mostly. Back in camp for some stupid stuff only. Other than that is adapting back to civilian world.

Mar:
Double happiness. ORD lor. Receive my 'lost' pink ic. Shortly after that, I receive my driving licence on my first attempt. Rejoice!!!

Apr:
Busy working at nus. Actually not busy but this is the most slack job that I ever done. Spend time knowing more people in NUSSU. Know this 16 yr-old kid who claimed that he could slam and a few babes from the singtel booth side.

May:
Still working but not at nus anymore. Had a few short-term jobs before working at Standard Chartered. Life became routine but the pay was good. However not as slack as the job before.

June:
Still at Standard Chartered. However the bank shifted to tampiness and so I decided to resign. Spend rest of the time contributing to sg's economy.$$$

Spoilt of plans

Spoilt of plans

Received a sms frm siewling in the morn. She just informed me that the ubin chalet over the wkend is postponed to 31st dec. I thought she's the one who booked this ubin chalet but actually she is just an organiser. Her frenz are the ones who booked the chalet and they just informed her the changes. She's so guilty and apolegetic towards me but actually i don't blame her la. I know it isn't her fault and at least she informed me abt the changes early. This shd be the way the things shd be done. I dislike when changes are made at the very last min. It only goes to show that how irresponsible and not organised you are since ppl take the trouble to make time for you and yet you take this for granted. Sorry to lcm,sy,yk and reb. lcm i know you brought your stuff to camp liao. Pai sei. At the most i bring you to sentosa to see your babes. Whaha.

Then, ytd just receive a sms from guang jin. A long lost pri sch frenz sia. It seems that there's a pri sch gathering @ fish & co. A pri sch gathering out of the blue. Wonder why he so enthu organising such stuff. Ever sinec i graduate i don't meet up with them anymore unless i happen to bump into them. Not bad sia. At least he still rem to call me along. Since now the ubin chalet is postponed, I should consider turning up for the gathering. Oh ya, pf if u still wana play badminton on mon, I'm free le.

Those who haven't watch King Kong, you shd do so cos it's really a nice movie. It's worth paying to watch. Mich, your serving improves. Your arms must be aching now rite? And RH (ruihang), nice catching up with you ytd. Didn't know that you read this lousy blog of mine. (glare at xl for revealing the exclusive blog of mine.Haha.) Can see that you are having a great time in aussie. A word for those who see this: Do tag unless you want to remain anoymous.

Some quizes:

Your Ideal Relationship is Serious Dating
You're not ready to go walking down the aisle.But you may be ready in a couple of years.
You prefer to date one on one, with a commitment.
And while chemistry is important, so is compatibility.

Sentosa here i come

Sentosa here i come

Itching to go to sentosa for a long while and finally went there today. Heard that there's lots of new attraction over there and i wana see the new stuff too. I'm a singaporean u know?

Met reb to go sentosa and happened to bump into her frenx. I have heard about the new luge ride in sentosa and want to try it. It seems that reb's frenx are first-timers too and they want to try out too. I heard about how fun the luge ride was and rh, you said it's exicting too rite? Well I tried the ride and was fairly satisfied with it since I don't have high expectation for it. $8 per ride, that's quite expensive. The tracks are not that challenging and if you compare the luge ride in auckland, the NZ ride is much exciting.

Firstly, in sentosa, the tracks are fairly straight, meaning you don't need to turn much at bends. In auckland, the bends are certainly much challenging and you can even visualise you dropping off the cliffs if you are not careful.

Secondly, sentosa only offers 1 course mode while in auckland, they offer 4 course modes, namely, beginner, intermediate, expert and scenic. Seriously buying mutiple rides in sentosa is stupid since you will go the same course again and again. Sorry if i accidentally offend anyone. haha.

Anyway, we should applause sentosa for bringing this idea from abroad even though there's still room for improvement. At my stay in auckland, i was quite fascinated by this luge ride. Compared to the go-kart in escape theme park, it's more exciting and fun. I was thinking to myself how come there's no such thing in singapore since the technology used is relatively simple. Then shortly after, sentosa finally got such thing. Those who haven't try it, it's worth a try.

Then after that, i went to the beach and nua there. Damn shiok to be idling in the beach. Stay there for quite some time before going for dinner at Burger King.

After that we proceed to muscial fountain. It has been ages since I last stepped there. The place was so crowded that we had difficulty finding seats. i would say the musical fountains is an under-publicise attraction of sentosa. The images made by the lasers and water fountains are so lovely and one should go there and see for himself. Definitely a great difference since i last saw it. And most importantly, admission is free of charge, so you all should just go and take a look.

What a lengthy entry. Time to zzz.

Maxed out

Maxed out

When i woke up today, i am feeling tired. Why? Becos of mich. Last nite she's too 'high' liao, chatted for several hours. Siao manz. Today chris last min jio me to play bball after tennis. I was still deciding whether to play bball after tennis. Tennis as usual, i won hands down. Lol. Better challengers pls. Just kidding. But playing tennis with teck and chris is damn entertaining. At least we joke around, jokingly say need 4 balls to create 4 aces serve.

After the game of tennis, chris and i go makan and bump into pf. So qiao hor. pf dun everytime stalk me la. After that, we meet des and went to bpcc to play bball. Skills still rusty. Really duno how to shoot sia. Always hit the back of the rim. Fed up. Then as usual alywin is late again. Whaha. But really have fun playing bball at kangwei's condo. Didn't know that his condo got bball court sia. Play a full court game with some strangers and managed to beat them. Too zai sia. All thank to chris for his endless running up and down the court. This match really drained out my energy and at times i was strolling. Time to train up my stamina.

Nth much to blog

Nth much to blog

I think blogging is less interesting than forum. Still rem the days where ey and pf will beef up my forum with some uni topics. They really contribute a lot and it's a pity that the forum is shut down. Also, edward aka fish putting some rubbish post. But all is history and now I will start to blog.

Ytd lcm and I went to sizzler to celebrate sy's 21st bday in advance. That stupid steve put paper aeroplane again. To dine over there is costly, ard $30 per head. The main course I ordered was disappointing (lime chilled prawns) , but one still can look forward to its free flow of soup, salad and ice-cream. Overall still not bad, just that it's pricey. Got a brown leather espirit sling bag for sy. Reason for choosing that? Sy going to start sch next yr and guess that he needs a sling bag to get ard in uni. Sy, hold tight, going to ORD soon le. Regain back of freedom. And hope you really like the bag, not 'fu yan' me de. And today siew ling just sms me asking me if i'm interested in the ubin chalet. kinda like that place as it's so relaxing over there and you can venture out in the wilderness. Still considering abt the offer though.

Just played tennis and swim today with lcm and mw. mw damm off-form today sia. Cannot serve properly. At least lcm starting getting the hang of it. With more practice he shd be able to improve. Seems like more and more tennis khakis liao.

Just watched a drama serial, this 1 scene that depicts a guy drowning in the seas and he has been holding onto something for the past 12hr. Amazing rite. Then a chopper unit has been alerted and they embark on the rescue mission to save this guy. To locate the guy in the sea is difficult and after much effort they managed to locate this guy. This shows that as long as there's effort, any obstacles can be overcome. But in the end the guy died in hospital. This shows another thing: Sometimes even though there's lots of effort, you still can't get what you want.

Some updates

Updates..

mon- played tennis with teck,wl and jeff

Playing tennis is so shiok. and wl u definitely improve since you got a killer move now. Been such a while since i last saw teck. he looks even more shuai liao. any takers? Also both wl and jeff upgrade their tennis racket liao, time to upgrade mine.

tues- went for interview @wild wild wet for some canvassing before going to lewis' chalet.

Saw my shimei there. Hey thought u say u are going on another day? Also, rh's voice very sexy lor. haha. Well, saw a lot of unfamilar faces over there. Don't know is i short-term memory or those chaps are relatively new. Wild wild wet looks norm except for its Samsung ride whereby 2 of you juz slide down in a float. Other than that, it looks similar to Jurong East complex. If J\E include the samsung ride, i think ppl will flcok to there since the admission charges vary a lot. $10++ vs $1.50.

At the chalet, we have fun bbq-ing until pf's parents came ba. They complain about the food not being cooked blah blah blah and then suddenly nobody feels like bbq-ing liao. They shouldn't come if they wana eat cooked food. Haha. And lirong was suaned by me until she wana die sia. Lucky she can take suan-ing or else i will die sia. At one point of the time everyone was current news sia. See, we are so cultured. But the chalet is like another min-foc gathering. All thankx to pf and lewis again.

wed- nua at home. time to rest
Home sweet home. Been a while since i really stay at home. Meet lcm for lunch and cut hair. My wallet really getting slimmer as the days went by. Any kind souls to donate money to me?


I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes
Till I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And break away

Out of the darkness
And into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And break away

(Quote from Kelly Clarkson 'Breakaway')

So tired...

So tired....

Just back from playing bball with lcm,yk,mw,ys,robin,yd and pl in the morn at bukit gombak cc. Started playing at 0830 sia. Damm early. I'm still in my lala land. I think I need to start a habit of sleeping early. Heard frm mich that there's an optimum timing for sleeping too. Didn't know about this. I only hear before optimum number of sleeping hours but not timing. She said by sleeping at the optimum timing you will feel fresher and your eye bags will vanish. Beauty tip from mich.

When playing bball just now, I feel old. Gone were the days where my fitness is at the peak. I was panting juz after 2 game or so. But cannot blame, nsman playing against nsf. Now my whole body aching . My stamina also damm horrible now. Then my shooting sux too, don't know how to shoot the ball anymore. Try a few shooting style but still cannot get the hang of it. I tink i can't play bball anymore. Maybe at the most can provide assists or grab rebounds for the rest. Skills too sucky now.

Then later in the day will be going to nydc @heerren for marshal's 21st bday. Ytd I just go there to have dinner @ billy bombers. The service there sux . The manager ask us to go away. Although we have finished eating, we cannot stay there and tok meh? What is this world coming to? Don't they know it's rude to ask customers to go away.

Oh ya. Ytd went to renault's showroom before going to queenways. There's this contest going on whereby participants use the key to start engine. The keys have been issued with every purchase of Straits Times and one can just go down to the showroom and try his luck. If the engine is started by your key, you walked away with the car. As simple as that. Wonder anyone go there there ytd or today?


Just back from marshal's bday celebration @nydc. Quite boring I would say. Maybe I don't know marshal well enough. Saw nicole over there and she kept on making faces at me. It has been a while since I last saw her and she looks rugged.Perhaps is work. Then she asked me if she can have a slice of the cheesecake and I told him to share the 2 slices of cheesecake with her colleagues.So nice of me rite? I think she has been eyeing on the cheesecake for a long time. But at least she gave me a 15% discount which is ard $20. It's quite a saving. I think I will patronise the nydc @ heeren only when she is working. Haha.

Double S

Double S

Shocked and stunned. Today was shopping ard in bugis when me and reb bumped into jingyi and siaoping. So qiao hor. Didn't notice them until they called my name. So awkward. I'm too blind sia. They are just beside me and yet I never noticed them. Aiya, they used to it can liao. I'm always the center of attraction, meaning ppl spot me instead of me spotting them. Too shuai le ba. Haha.

After that, we walked to raffles city and saw BATMAN in action. There's some batman performance over at raffles city and the place was so crowded. The batman just zoom down from three storey high to the stage. I think that's the climax le so decided to leave the place.

When I reach home, the stupid steve excitedly msn me, don't know for what sia. So unlike of him. Yuan lai he saw me just now. That bloody stalker. Smu teach you how to be stalker right? Lol. Then he begin to bombard me with questions, no leaving any moment for me to breathe sia. Steve, tml last paper liao, so you better concentrate on your paper, don't ask those irrelevant question. Good luck for your last paper and meet up after your exam.

Anyway on the bus ride, I was listening to 93.3fm. The Dj begin to talk about a love story. To cut the story short, it goes:

A guy knows a gal through online and he fallen for her w/o meeting her before. They become virtual bf and gf for mths b4 they decide to meet up. At the first meeting, the guy is so excited that he decided to go an hour eariler. Upon seeing the gal, he's stunned. He has always picture the face and figure of his gf but never knew that his gf is dead drop gorgeous...(The rest of details not important liao)

Unbelivable right. I really doubt the credibility of this story cos I feel that it's impossible. But still it's a story worth sharing since the moral of story is: It's possible to hook up pretty gals through the net. Whaha.

Well enough of blogging le. Later should be going to JB if nth goes wrong.
