I finally found this on Merilyn's album. I don't know who this girl is, I don't know her name, her class, her date of birth or anything else important - but guess why I took a photo with her? Scratch that, guess why I was forced to take a photo with her?

Came back to the hall after games on either the second or third day of orientation and Brandon, Merilyn and a few others came over to tell me that they found this girl who looks exactly like me. I think she's from either Valora or Alphaeus. But anyway I heard really scary stuff that day. I want you to confirm it for me on the tagboard like NOW. I know I like bloody stare at the mirror a hell lot of times everyday, but you know that's even more so the reason why I cannot tell if there's a similarity! Please tell me your opinion, this thing is haunting me :(

Sick through the weekend, didn't even have time to take a breather before that cause everyday was just oozing with fun(ness). Before the fever came, of course. Oh for the sake of those who don't have Facebook, or those who didn't see, I was highest 40.8 deg during the weekends, I had throat inflammation, dizzyness, cough, phlegm and everything else you hate. You don't want to experience that I swear. I sat around the house through the weekends, sitting on my bed, lying down, getting back up, walking down, walking back up... I couldn't sleep cause I've did that for more than half my day, so I took 20 minute naps, woke up, fever got worse, and walked around and shit. Not literal shit, but yeah I did shit nothing and my fever was just wavering around 40 deg.

Anyway I was like delirious cause the heat probably got to my brain, I think I said a lot of ridiculous things in front of my relatives. I was sleeping when suddenly both my baby cousins were on my bed crawling towards me. My parents invited the close maternal relatives over, and when I went down after a bath several hours later, I realised they gathered to bake pineapple tarts. I'll skip the clinic visit cause it was horrible - vomited, 3 closed clinics before we finally got to one. But by the time I reached home I saw a table full of pineapple tarts through my cloudy vision, but nevertheless bid farewell and enclosed myself in my room goodnight. --- BUT HOLYCRAP. A table full of pineapple tarts? Okay if you were reading my blog last year you might have seen me post a picture, it became like a family tradition. But the table's like my height and three times my fatness! Imagine, three bolong(s) side by side of pineapple tarts! You wish you could just grab a little blanket, dive into the pineapple paste, get all cosy and die there~ Yeah so lots of great food piling up at my house already, I'd better get this throat inflammation out of my before the weekends come again!



Okay so rewind back to the previous week! Saturday was Yuting's birthday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY YUTING! I know, the wall seems to be the foreground on the second photo, cause I wanted to take a picture of the wall when Yuting and Sandra's head popped below HAHA. But yeah nice wall huh. Celebrated an early one on Friday evening at this restaurant called With A Pinch of Salt at Tanjong Katong Road, outside CCHMS/TKGS. Enjoyed the shop interface, a bit childish and cartoon-like, an obvious target at girls, but I applaud the shop for it's design and colours. I think it's really nice, though I don't understand their motto of "It's only a cafe, don't take it so seriously..."


Food there was good too. Jieting tried out tom yam noodles/pasta which sounded gross but ended up with a nice twist of flavours. I tried the Hawaiian pizza cause I couldn't afford much, it wasn't so awesome but that might be cause it got cold. I'll give it four stars, it really has potential to thrive, but IMO shops like these should maintain their slight-anonymity, sucks when too many are visiting it. Becomes more like a concept restaurant and completely destroys the homely feeling attached to it.




I love my freshmen. They surprised us OGLs with gifts at the end of Suntec Mass Dance that day, when we least expected it. I'm really super proud of my OG, going to celebrate ah beng's birthday tomorrow, and that's awesome! I wish A6 was like that too huh, guess it's just a tad too little initiatives. A printed mug, an adorable card plus a nicely drawn Creudor silhouette with messages! The latter's one and only for me (subOG IC) okay! HAHAHA. Marcus the ah beng drew it, I think not too bad can pass off as my disciple - seen the original Creudor I created?

I guess all good things really have to come to an end sometime. Yesterday was the end of OG Orientation. At least there was a great closure for all of us in Creudor, after being ranked 8th (last) for the past days, cause somehow we were pretty invisible in the eyes of the SC, everything picked up on the last day. SC started being nicer to us, giving us more points cause we worked (extremely) hard but could never get out of last placing. Points didn't matter, placing didn't matter, but Creudor worked hard and at least we saw some results. We jumped from last place to 3rd placing on the last day of orientation. My subOG freshmen had something against cheering and dancing too much, but even so at least they broke out of it on the last day, and I really felt good. Damn proud of my subOG now cause they really still damn enthu even after orientation ended, they went for CCA Walkabout in their OG! Happy face!

OMG 09S65 doesn't have a junior class! Heard people saying that this year VJ's intake is like girls:guys 3:1. And they say girls usually hate physics and prefer biology. So PCME classes are quite rare now. BCME exceeded the usual, so now BCME classes are like: S30 S31 S32 S33 S34 S35 S36 S37 S38 S39 S3A S3B S3C cause they ran out of numbers to use. Cause we sadpoks in the physics faculty don't have junior classes, we were assigned 10S3C to be our junior class. At least better than nothing huh. Oh man lessons started today. Going to have lessons again tomorrow, but then thank god we've a break on Friday cause OGLs gotta bring the junior class out to Sea Regatta, however you spell it. By the way, Sea Regatta = sea carnival, it's just a name carried on by tradition.

Okay today must study. Bath, study, sleep.

Work time overrun. At 9.30pm, I told myself I'll finish the poster by an hour, but now it's 2.30am and I've only just finished it. But I like the end product. I wanted to add more details, make it like some video console fight with cartoon explosions, laser beams and all, but time is of the essence so I'll leave it like that. I'm sorry Jeline I don't think I'll be able to design the TOUCH shirt anymore cause the poster's CCA commitment I put it first. :( So there went my Sunday, waking up at 2pm (cause my OG chatted till 2am the previous night) and then going out with family and Facebooking till dinner. Okay I shall squeeze in Probability in the next 2 days of orientation nights.

Two and a half days of Orientation over, two proper days on Thursday and Friday and a mass OG dinner tonight. My subOG freshmen are extremely awesome. I no longer care if Orientation as a whole is awesome or not, but now I know I'm having a hell lot of fun with my subOG. First photo above's my subOG, second's the OGLs present today. My subOG is oozing awesomeness really, we not only had the highest turnout from all the Creudor (our OG name) subOGs, but we were really cool. Great OG bonding time today, the rest of the Creudor groups formed a huge circle to play games but we were cooler than that so we decided to let them be and talk amongst ourselves. A bit anti-social, but it was damn fun. Chatted about loads of random things, but great laughs. We hardly even joined in the rest in the cheering, but by the end of the night I lost my voice. Probably because most of the time I was so agitated I raised my voice. All of us were. But YAY anyway, I'm so proud of my freshies now! Plus I can't wait for the next 2 days of orientation cause we're so much closer to each other now! Too bad OG orientation ends on Tuesday and Wednesday onwards will be class orientation.




A week ago I overslept on the bus and went 3 busstops ahead of where I was supposed to get off. Saw a mamashop there and there, I saw this. Quite a crucial part of my childhood, every Saturday visit my grandfather will give me, my brother and my cousin two dollars each to get down to the mamashop to buy snacks. This is one of which I enjoyed a lot. Snip off the top and suck suck suck. Colours look damn awesome as well right, totally attracts you to suck it. Oh yeah, and if you've heard how I got my phobia of cats, yeah at that time I was walking towards THIS mamashop. Anyway now that I'm old, I realise the jelly just doesn't taste as great anymore, but still it was worth it cause I think they look very adorable. So reminiscent right?!

Yeah the world's always been about multi-touch interface as the new king in technology, I think iPad's going to start this revolution. In any case, what attracts me most is the user-interactivity of using your fingers on the screen, and also the calendar - hell it looks like an awesome planner. But otherwise it looks just like a bigger iPod Touch. Plus it's name isn't exactly awesome, I'd prefer traditional iTablet or something cause this just reminds me of Kotex. This doesn't convince me yet, but it might just get better, I'm waiting to see what awesome apps would be created for it. Oh but for the price of US$499 - 16GB (which is obviously not enough) so 64GB, US$699 it actually sounds reasonable.

Oh but then I discovered something. The iPad is almost absolutely stupid to use as an alternative to a tablet PC. Or a Macbook. You can't open multiple windows, you absolutely cannot multi-task, you cannot view flash, and a lot of others are limited. So in my opinion you should only get it if you don't have an iPod touch/ iPhone, and you like carrying huge things around. Which makes... not many people. Rich kids put aside.

Anyway first day of Orientation. It wasn't as great as I thought it would be, but give chance lah, first day of Orientation, if I was a freshmen I wouldn't be high anyway. And I see a few DHS freshmen around, which is great. But none I know personally though =x

Like I said in my Facebook status "I think I'm more excited that tomorrow's the last day of lessons, than that orientation's starting Thursday. Is this right?". Seriously, I'm glad I'm taking a break from lessons. My to-do note, which I slotted into my wallet, has never ever had a tutorial stroke out since I created it, no time on weekdays to do any work at all. Anyway I hope I'll try to fit in some time to catch up with at least 2 tutorials during orientation period.

Anyway A6 OG dinner today, it was fun despite the low turnout. About half the OG, but it wasn't awkward at all, which is great. Having not talked to some of them for so long I had this bad feeling it might be awkward.



Remember a few posts down I told you I was afraid Jayme Lee Lincoln (the fake account of a Christian) would take virtual revenge on me? I checked my blog stats (yeah, I check it at times when I'm really bored) and woah someone Googled her name to come to my blog. Now I'm going to die, especially when I reveal so much of my private life on my blog. Uh oh. Checking keyword activities to your blog is actually fun sometimes, you see some really random searches. I've seen people searching for really weird things and arriving at my blog.

Title's title, disconnected from my feeling factory, not an expression of what I'm feeling now. I think I'm picking up, I think you don't understand what I'm talking about. In any case, today was the last official day of my volleyball training. Really couldn't take it anyway, physics and chemistry remedials taking up 2 days of the week. And probably 2 days of wushu training as well. I think I'm going to slack off CCAs this year, wushu has 6 DSAs and 2 pending sports appeals, and woah they scare me. Not literally, but just that they make me feel like lousy shit. Don't worry, just mentioning. I think I'll miss volleyball training though, I don't know if its the sport or what, but volleyball's honestly a lot more fun, that's why I wouldn't mind staying on even if I suck at the sport. But anyway my friends reminded me today that I've got no O'level cert, so I've gotta work doubly hard, so yeah - sacrifices are necessary I guess. Same goes to all you Dunmanian friends out there hard, we gotta jia double you this year!

So anyway my brother's off to Hong Kong (for a short while I thought he was going to Bangkok) and good thing is that for the few days I've unlimited access to all his clothes, bags and DSLR. Bad thing is that he brought the shaver, face moisturizer and some others along with him. I had to hold the tiny blade in hand to shave yesterday. Have I mentioned that already?

Now my mum's kind of rotting at home cause she's no longer working, she spent the past days of the month completing and clearing up the offices and everything else. Now there's no longer a "在你做工那边", no longer Boon Keng taiwanese spicy honey chicken cutlet for a side dish for dinner, no longer income on her part. I think she's seeking solace by finding things in the house to clear up, in lieu of Chinese New Year, but she's done that for the whole of today. I know that sounds quite sad huh, but it sucks to know that I can't help her much. I don't exactly know what she's going to do. She doesn't seem so worried herself though, think she's going to help out at Dad's till she find something else. If it helps, tell me if you've any job lobangs for a 44 year old. And my stupid brother's still enjoying a holiday in Hong Kong. Maybe I'm just over-thinking things huh

The Annoying Orange at Youtube. Watch the two videos - in order, very important - cause they are only 2 minutes long and absolutely awesome. Could watch the rest if you're interested, just click on the link I provided above.






Okay, a bath, a movie, and then I'll start on those work. Study out at Chinatown tomorrow. I realised that my brother's flight is 6am tomorrow, so I hope I won't be sleepy and stupid for Sunday cause I sent him off. Oh, this is really outdated, I saw this like 2 weeks ago, but have you seen "12 days of Ris-mas" on Youtube? Worth the watch.

Had training in the morning, which sucked. I woke up at 7am (my mum woke me up half an hour earlier than expected) and I felt terrible. I fell asleep eating breakfast, fell asleep pooping, and then I took multiple 5 or 10 minute naps before I went out. I finally dragged myself out (at around 8.45am), but because I was so tired I ended up in Tampines MRT when I was supposed to alight at Eunos. I hate missing stops, and feeling extremely sleepy and all. I was about 20 minutes late by the time I got to training.

Anyway, on the bus journey back home the emo hit me. Does anyone else feel that college life seriously sucks? The last time I went out with my friends was... what? I don't even remember, but checking with my blogposts it could be 10th Jan with my cousins/family - but they are not even friends. After school lunches, dinners, studying with friends and 陈老师's farewell dinner do not count. The teachers have given us the CT1 schedule, and everywhere we go, we hear teachers telling us to buck up. So much so that it's drilled into us to study, and only study. Oh, maybe score a bit of CCA points to build up your portfolio, but that's just that. No teachers' telling us to have more fun, make more friends, enjoy life a bit more before we grow old and regret all these. My perspective had always been different, that I want to focus on enjoying what I do, what I like, even that I had to like studying before I go into studying. But now they are making me change my mind, it's a quiet Saturday, I just came home from training and the first thing that's on my mind is to study. Life really sucks like that. I try, but I can't do it completely. What sets some of us apart from the stereotypical scholars are that we are enjoying our social life. Having said that, now diving into studies would just make us a plain old lousy alternative to them, cause we study but we're not even as good as them at it. Maybe we haven't spent enough time, but will we ever have enough time to catch up with them? Doing nothing but studying is absolutely ego-hurting.

Plus I quite volleyball, and now I'm lazy and don't want to continue one of the wushu routine I've picked up during the holidays, cause there's zilch chance of winning and I hate to waste time learning new things. Then I'll be competing a single event when everyone else would be doing at least two, and then I'll start to feel sad and pathetic cause from 6 days of training a week I'll be left with 2 or 3, and trainings that I don't really enjoy at that. Yes, wushu's kind of boring. Don't worry, I'm the least suicidal, this is just a temporary feeling, and I've probably lost it blogging about it already.

OH GOD MY BLOOD BOILS. Facebook group, "Will the Mega churches please donate to Haiti out of their expansion fund?". I directed you immediately to Jayme Lee Lincoln's wall comment, I hope the link works, but anyway look for it and read the entire thread. The group was nothing against City Harvest or Christianity but she's taking it so personally and insulting everyone else and their religions. Stupid egoistic religious person. I don't usually comment on public threads or anything in Facebook, but I think this was the first time I actually did. I don't do it cause whoever I'm criticizing would probably find some way to get back at me, probably Googling and coming to my blog. She has 29 friends, which makes it a 98% chance that's a fake profile. When someone has the time to create a fake profile on Facebook, that person would have the time to try and do something against me. I should create a fake online persona to deal with these people too, but sorry I've got work to do.

Woah I haven't blogged in a long time. I've this small list of tutorials to do in my wallet, and the list just keeps on getting longer. I thought putting the list of to-do in my wallet would motivate me a little more but by now I could conclude it didn't work very well.

Oh recently a few friends have been asking me for favours to design stuff, 3 requests in a week suddenly, it's kind of scary - how did people notice I could? Okay I'm not listing cause I realised I'll just sound like a showoff. Maybe my designing hobby is taking flight! Just kidding, but I'd really like to be in a designing course, doing assignments and projects would be so fun, unlike being in a JC. But then again sanely I won't choose to go that path cause I'm not great at designing, plus I'm unsure I want that as a job. This is right in the face to my brother who thinks that playing L4D reaps more benefits that playing around with Photoshop and making blogskins. The hobby's actually quite useful huh. Oh speaking of that, the weekend's finally here and Perle I think I'll start on your VJ Knights' blogskin soon! Tomorrow training in the morning, those stuff in the afternoon. Oh and I plan to study out at Chinatown full day on Sunday. Even though my brother's flying off with his friends on Sunday to Hong Kong, I think I'll skip sending him off. Unless my parents force me to. Phoenix Cheer HAS to go on a year-end trip after the A levels okay!

Early morning training tomorrow, better sleep now. I've a few things to update, but I'll do them if I've time and if I haven't forgotten about them yeah? OG dinner today, not too bad, at least got bonding plus I made a few new friends.

I finally found this on Merilyn's album. I don't know who this girl is, I don't know her name, her class, her date of birth or anything else important - but guess why I took a photo with her? Scratch that, guess why I was forced to take a photo with her?

Came back to the hall after games on either the second or third day of orientation and Brandon, Merilyn and a few others came over to tell me that they found this girl who looks exactly like me. I think she's from either Valora or Alphaeus. But anyway I heard really scary stuff that day. I want you to confirm it for me on the tagboard like NOW. I know I like bloody stare at the mirror a hell lot of times everyday, but you know that's even more so the reason why I cannot tell if there's a similarity! Please tell me your opinion, this thing is haunting me :(

Sick through the weekend, didn't even have time to take a breather before that cause everyday was just oozing with fun(ness). Before the fever came, of course. Oh for the sake of those who don't have Facebook, or those who didn't see, I was highest 40.8 deg during the weekends, I had throat inflammation, dizzyness, cough, phlegm and everything else you hate. You don't want to experience that I swear. I sat around the house through the weekends, sitting on my bed, lying down, getting back up, walking down, walking back up... I couldn't sleep cause I've did that for more than half my day, so I took 20 minute naps, woke up, fever got worse, and walked around and shit. Not literal shit, but yeah I did shit nothing and my fever was just wavering around 40 deg.

Anyway I was like delirious cause the heat probably got to my brain, I think I said a lot of ridiculous things in front of my relatives. I was sleeping when suddenly both my baby cousins were on my bed crawling towards me. My parents invited the close maternal relatives over, and when I went down after a bath several hours later, I realised they gathered to bake pineapple tarts.

But by the time I reached home I saw a table full of pineapple tarts through my cloudy vision, but nevertheless bid farewell and enclosed myself in my room goodnight. --- BUT HOLYCRAP. A table full of pineapple tarts? Okay if you were reading my blog last year you might have seen me post a picture, it became like a family tradition. But the table's like my height and three times my fatness! Imagine, three bolong(s) side by side of pineapple tarts! You wish you could just grab a little blanket, dive into the pineapple paste, get all cosy and die there~ Yeah so lots of great food piling up at my house already, I'd better get this throat inflammation out of my before the weekends come again!



Okay so rewind back to the previous week! Saturday was Yuting's birthday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY YUTING! I know, the wall seems to be the foreground on the second photo, cause I wanted to take a picture of the wall when Yuting and Sandra's head popped below HAHA. But yeah nice wall huh. Celebrated an early one on Friday evening at this restaurant called With A Pinch of Salt at Tanjong Katong Road, outside CCHMS/TKGS. Enjoyed the shop interface, a bit childish and cartoon-like, an obvious target at girls, but I applaud the shop for it's design and colours. I think it's really nice, though I don't understand their motto of "It's only a cafe, don't take it so seriously..."


Food there was good too. Jieting tried out tom yam noodles/pasta which sounded gross but ended up with a nice twist of flavours. I tried the Hawaiian pizza cause I couldn't afford much, it wasn't so awesome but that might be cause it got cold. I'll give it four stars, it really has potential to thrive, but IMO shops like these should maintain their slight-anonymity, sucks when too many are visiting it. Becomes more like a concept restaurant and completely destroys the homely feeling attached to it.




I love my freshmen. They surprised us OGLs with gifts at the end of Suntec Mass Dance that day, when we least expected it. I'm really super proud of my OG, going to celebrate ah beng's birthday tomorrow, and that's awesome! I wish A6 was like that too huh, guess it's just a tad too little initiatives. A printed mug, an adorable card plus a nicely drawn Creudor silhouette with messages! The latter's one and only for me (subOG IC) okay! HAHAHA. Marcus the ah beng drew it, I think not too bad can pass off as my disciple - seen the original Creudor I created?

I guess all good things really have to come to an end sometime. Yesterday was the end of OG Orientation. At least there was a great closure for all of us in Creudor, after being ranked 8th (last) for the past days, cause somehow we were pretty invisible in the eyes of the SC, everything picked up on the last day. SC started being nicer to us, giving us more points cause we worked (extremely) hard but could never get out of last placing. Points didn't matter, placing didn't matter, but Creudor worked hard and at least we saw some results. We jumped from last place to 3rd placing on the last day of orientation. My subOG freshmen had something against cheering and dancing too much, but even so at least they broke out of it on the last day, and I really felt good. Damn proud of my subOG now cause they really still damn enthu even after orientation ended, they went for CCA Walkabout in their OG! Happy face!

OMG 09S65 doesn't have a junior class! Heard people saying that this year VJ's intake is like girls:guys 3:1. And they say girls usually hate physics and prefer biology. So PCME classes are quite rare now. BCME exceeded the usual, so now BCME classes are like: S30 S31 S32 S33 S34 S35 S36 S37 S38 S39 S3A S3B S3C cause they ran out of numbers to use. Cause we sadpoks in the physics faculty don't have junior classes, we were assigned 10S3C to be our junior class. At least better than nothing huh. Oh man lessons started today. Going to have lessons again tomorrow, but then thank god we've a break on Friday cause OGLs gotta bring the junior class out to Sea Regatta, however you spell it. By the way, Sea Regatta = sea carnival, it's just a name carried on by tradition.

Okay today must study. Bath, study, sleep.

Work time overrun. At 9.30pm, I told myself I'll finish the poster by an hour, but now it's 2.30am and I've only just finished it. But I like the end product. I wanted to add more details, make it like some video console fight with cartoon explosions, laser beams and all, but time is of the essence so I'll leave it like that. I'm sorry Jeline I don't think I'll be able to design the TOUCH shirt anymore cause the poster's CCA commitment I put it first. :( So there went my Sunday, waking up at 2pm (cause my OG chatted till 2am the previous night) and then going out with family and Facebooking till dinner. Okay I shall squeeze in Probability in the next 2 days of orientation nights.

Two and a half days of Orientation over, two proper days on Thursday and Friday and a mass OG dinner tonight. My subOG freshmen are extremely awesome. I no longer care if Orientation as a whole is awesome or not, but now I know I'm having a hell lot of fun with my subOG. First photo above's my subOG, second's the OGLs present today. My subOG is oozing awesomeness really, we not only had the highest turnout from all the Creudor (our OG name) subOGs, but we were really cool. Great OG bonding time today, the rest of the Creudor groups formed a huge circle to play games but we were cooler than that so we decided to let them be and talk amongst ourselves. A bit anti-social, but it was damn fun. Chatted about loads of random things, but great laughs. We hardly even joined in the rest in the cheering, but by the end of the night I lost my voice. Probably because most of the time I was so agitated I raised my voice. All of us were. But YAY anyway, I'm so proud of my freshies now! Plus I can't wait for the next 2 days of orientation cause we're so much closer to each other now! Too bad OG orientation ends on Tuesday and Wednesday onwards will be class orientation.




A week ago I overslept on the bus and went 3 busstops ahead of where I was supposed to get off. Saw a mamashop there and there, I saw this. Quite a crucial part of my childhood, every Saturday visit my grandfather will give me, my brother and my cousin two dollars each to get down to the mamashop to buy snacks. This is one of which I enjoyed a lot. Snip off the top and suck suck suck. Colours look damn awesome as well right, totally attracts you to suck it. Oh yeah, and if you've heard how I got my phobia of cats, yeah at that time I was walking towards THIS mamashop. Anyway now that I'm old, I realise the jelly just doesn't taste as great anymore, but still it was worth it cause I think they look very adorable. So reminiscent right?!

Yeah the world's always been about multi-touch interface as the new king in technology, I think iPad's going to start this revolution. In any case, what attracts me most is the user-interactivity of using your fingers on the screen, and also the calendar - hell it looks like an awesome planner. But otherwise it looks just like a bigger iPod Touch. Plus it's name isn't exactly awesome, I'd prefer traditional iTablet or something cause this just reminds me of Kotex. This doesn't convince me yet, but it might just get better, I'm waiting to see what awesome apps would be created for it. Oh but for the price of US$499 - 16GB (which is obviously not enough) so 64GB, US$699 it actually sounds reasonable.

Oh but then I discovered something. The iPad is almost absolutely stupid to use as an alternative to a tablet PC. Or a Macbook. You can't open multiple windows, you absolutely cannot multi-task, you cannot view flash, and a lot of others are limited. So in my opinion you should only get it if you don't have an iPod touch/ iPhone, and you like carrying huge things around. Which makes... not many people. Rich kids put aside.

Anyway first day of Orientation. It wasn't as great as I thought it would be, but give chance lah, first day of Orientation, if I was a freshmen I wouldn't be high anyway. And I see a few DHS freshmen around, which is great. But none I know personally though =x

Like I said in my Facebook status "I think I'm more excited that tomorrow's the last day of lessons, than that orientation's starting Thursday. Is this right?". Seriously, I'm glad I'm taking a break from lessons. My to-do note, which I slotted into my wallet, has never ever had a tutorial stroke out since I created it, no time on weekdays to do any work at all. Anyway I hope I'll try to fit in some time to catch up with at least 2 tutorials during orientation period.

Anyway A6 OG dinner today, it was fun despite the low turnout. About half the OG, but it wasn't awkward at all, which is great. Having not talked to some of them for so long I had this bad feeling it might be awkward.



Remember a few posts down I told you I was afraid Jayme Lee Lincoln (the fake account of a Christian) would take virtual revenge on me? I checked my blog stats (yeah, I check it at times when I'm really bored) and woah someone Googled her name to come to my blog. Now I'm going to die, especially when I reveal so much of my private life on my blog. Uh oh. Checking keyword activities to your blog is actually fun sometimes, you see some really random searches. I've seen people searching for really weird things and arriving at my blog.

Title's title, disconnected from my feeling factory, not an expression of what I'm feeling now. I think I'm picking up, I think you don't understand what I'm talking about. In any case, today was the last official day of my volleyball training. Really couldn't take it anyway, physics and chemistry remedials taking up 2 days of the week. And probably 2 days of wushu training as well. I think I'm going to slack off CCAs this year, wushu has 6 DSAs and 2 pending sports appeals, and woah they scare me. Not literally, but just that they make me feel like lousy shit. Don't worry, just mentioning. I think I'll miss volleyball training though, I don't know if its the sport or what, but volleyball's honestly a lot more fun, that's why I wouldn't mind staying on even if I suck at the sport. But anyway my friends reminded me today that I've got no O'level cert, so I've gotta work doubly hard, so yeah - sacrifices are necessary I guess. Same goes to all you Dunmanian friends out there hard, we gotta jia double you this year!

So anyway my brother's off to Hong Kong (for a short while I thought he was going to Bangkok) and good thing is that for the few days I've unlimited access to all his clothes, bags and DSLR. Bad thing is that he brought the shaver, face moisturizer and some others along with him. I had to hold the tiny blade in hand to shave yesterday. Have I mentioned that already?

Now my mum's kind of rotting at home cause she's no longer working, she spent the past days of the month completing and clearing up the offices and everything else. Now there's no longer a "在你做工那边", no longer Boon Keng taiwanese spicy honey chicken cutlet for a side dish for dinner, no longer income on her part. I think she's seeking solace by finding things in the house to clear up, in lieu of Chinese New Year, but she's done that for the whole of today. I know that sounds quite sad huh, but it sucks to know that I can't help her much. I don't exactly know what she's going to do. She doesn't seem so worried herself though, think she's going to help out at Dad's till she find something else. If it helps, tell me if you've any job lobangs for a 44 year old. And my stupid brother's still enjoying a holiday in Hong Kong. Maybe I'm just over-thinking things huh

The Annoying Orange at Youtube. Watch the two videos - in order, very important - cause they are only 2 minutes long and absolutely awesome. Could watch the rest if you're interested, just click on the link I provided above.






Okay, a bath, a movie, and then I'll start on those work. Study out at Chinatown tomorrow. I realised that my brother's flight is 6am tomorrow, so I hope I won't be sleepy and stupid for Sunday cause I sent him off. Oh, this is really outdated, I saw this like 2 weeks ago, but have you seen "12 days of Ris-mas" on Youtube? Worth the watch.

Had training in the morning, which sucked. I woke up at 7am (my mum woke me up half an hour earlier than expected) and I felt terrible. I fell asleep eating breakfast, fell asleep pooping, and then I took multiple 5 or 10 minute naps before I went out. I finally dragged myself out (at around 8.45am), but because I was so tired I ended up in Tampines MRT when I was supposed to alight at Eunos. I hate missing stops, and feeling extremely sleepy and all. I was about 20 minutes late by the time I got to training.

Anyway, on the bus journey back home the emo hit me. Does anyone else feel that college life seriously sucks? The last time I went out with my friends was... what? I don't even remember, but checking with my blogposts it could be 10th Jan with my cousins/family - but they are not even friends. After school lunches, dinners, studying with friends and 陈老师's farewell dinner do not count. The teachers have given us the CT1 schedule, and everywhere we go, we hear teachers telling us to buck up. So much so that it's drilled into us to study, and only study. Oh, maybe score a bit of CCA points to build up your portfolio, but that's just that. No teachers' telling us to have more fun, make more friends, enjoy life a bit more before we grow old and regret all these. My perspective had always been different, that I want to focus on enjoying what I do, what I like, even that I had to like studying before I go into studying. But now they are making me change my mind, it's a quiet Saturday, I just came home from training and the first thing that's on my mind is to study. Life really sucks like that. I try, but I can't do it completely. What sets some of us apart from the stereotypical scholars are that we are enjoying our social life. Having said that, now diving into studies would just make us a plain old lousy alternative to them, cause we study but we're not even as good as them at it. Maybe we haven't spent enough time, but will we ever have enough time to catch up with them? Doing nothing but studying is absolutely ego-hurting.

Plus I quite volleyball, and now I'm lazy and don't want to continue one of the wushu routine I've picked up during the holidays, cause there's zilch chance of winning and I hate to waste time learning new things. Then I'll be competing a single event when everyone else would be doing at least two, and then I'll start to feel sad and pathetic cause from 6 days of training a week I'll be left with 2 or 3, and trainings that I don't really enjoy at that. Yes, wushu's kind of boring. Don't worry, I'm the least suicidal, this is just a temporary feeling, and I've probably lost it blogging about it already.

OH GOD MY BLOOD BOILS. Facebook group, "Will the Mega churches please donate to Haiti out of their expansion fund?". I directed you immediately to Jayme Lee Lincoln's wall comment, I hope the link works, but anyway look for it and read the entire thread. The group was nothing against City Harvest or Christianity but she's taking it so personally and insulting everyone else and their religions. Stupid egoistic religious person. I don't usually comment on public threads or anything in Facebook, but I think this was the first time I actually did. I don't do it cause whoever I'm criticizing would probably find some way to get back at me, probably Googling and coming to my blog. She has 29 friends, which makes it a 98% chance that's a fake profile. When someone has the time to create a fake profile on Facebook, that person would have the time to try and do something against me. I should create a fake online persona to deal with these people too, but sorry I've got work to do.

Woah I haven't blogged in a long time. I've this small list of tutorials to do in my wallet, and the list just keeps on getting longer. I thought putting the list of to-do in my wallet would motivate me a little more but by now I could conclude it didn't work very well.

Oh recently a few friends have been asking me for favours to design stuff, 3 requests in a week suddenly, it's kind of scary - how did people notice I could? Okay I'm not listing cause I realised I'll just sound like a showoff. Maybe my designing hobby is taking flight! Just kidding, but I'd really like to be in a designing course, doing assignments and projects would be so fun, unlike being in a JC. But then again sanely I won't choose to go that path cause I'm not great at designing, plus I'm unsure I want that as a job. This is right in the face to my brother who thinks that playing L4D reaps more benefits that playing around with Photoshop and making blogskins. The hobby's actually quite useful huh. Oh speaking of that, the weekend's finally here and Perle I think I'll start on your VJ Knights' blogskin soon! Tomorrow training in the morning, those stuff in the afternoon. Oh and I plan to study out at Chinatown full day on Sunday. Even though my brother's flying off with his friends on Sunday to Hong Kong, I think I'll skip sending him off. Unless my parents force me to. Phoenix Cheer HAS to go on a year-end trip after the A levels okay!

Early morning training tomorrow, better sleep now. I've a few things to update, but I'll do them if I've time and if I haven't forgotten about them yeah? OG dinner today, not too bad, at least got bonding plus I made a few new friends.
