and you start to feel sad when it's all over

Back from Tekong, permanently. Unless I get posted there again, which I hope not =\ Has been a fun experience overall. From the 8~km a day endurance training to the route marches to my superb bunk mates, everything has been pretty good and I enjoyed myself a lot throughout the 7 weeks. Which passed pretty fast to be frank.

Who knows, I might even start missing Tekong. HAHAHA!

galley by the straits

Couldn't book any of the more popular restaurants at Demsey Hill, Clarke Quay, etc since I only got back from my adjustment period yesterday. But in the end I managed to find and book a table at Galley By The Straits. It's a really nice waterfront restaurant. Enjoyed the sea view and the food very much. Pretty tired now, but good Valentine's Day.

a lvl results

Ok don't know if you people know this, but I have always dreamt about my results before getting them back, and the results I dream about, always come true. Starting from sec 2, I dreamt that I scored 62 for history, and I did.. All the way up till last year prelims, I told David the day before Maths prelim that I dreamt I scored 75 for it, and of course I did when the paper was returned to us.

Okay so what's the significance of this? I dreamt about my A level results. I dreamt that I got AAC for my H2s. As much as I wish for this to be true, it simply cannot be. Because dreams, are eventually just dreams. And the dream I wish to be true, would probably be the only one that don't come true. Besides, I dreamt that my A's were Geography and Econs and my C was Literature. Probably 0 out of 3.

I get this tight knot in my stomach everytime I think about my A level results. First time I ever got so nervous about anything since collecting my PSLE results in primary 6. And Yubin said she heard that A's levels results are gonna be released in early February.

No please. And I pray I won't flunk my A's. I just wanna get into university, I know I didn't study hard enough and I don't need top grades. Just university admission. Just that.

so..

Many girls on my MSN list has a nick of "Oh My GoSh, tWiLiGhT Is So HoT. EdWaRd RoCkS!!!" or something similar.

1. I think Carlisle and Jasper are both hotter than Edward in the movie.
2. I think Alice is the only pretty one in the movie.
3. The book is half decent but the movie is horribly bad.
4. DoN't TaLk LiKe ThIs PlEaSe.

I wanna get the books in the rest of the series but it seems as though the other books in the series are not as good as the first. Shall see how.

Anyway talking about the movie, it was soooo disappointing. =\ Though I already been warned by so many other people, I didn't expect it to be thaaat bad.

some quotes for randomness

Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends. -JRR Tolkien

A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on. -Winston Churchill

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones. -Albert Einstein

Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth -- more than ruin -- more even than death.... Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man. -Oscar Wilde

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. -Michael Jordan

In times of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. -George Orwell

Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back. - Gladiator

Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under communism, it's just the opposite. -J.K Galbraith

Capitalism is the astounding belief that the most wickedest of men will do the most wickedest of things for the greatest good of everyone. -John Keynes

The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naive forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget. -Thomas Szasz





Some favourites, especially for their comedic value

If I'd wanted to hear from an arsehole, I would have farted. -B. Connolly

Death solves all problems, no man no problem. -Stalin

I definitely want Brooklyn to be Christened though I don't know into which religion. -David Beckham, apparently not very smart





Been reading quite a bit recently, and pretty much undisturbed. With all the guys enlisting (and coming out already), basically been staying home quite a bit these few days. Reading Twilight. The first novel in thsi series is amazingly addictive, though the author seems to want to emphasise on how hot Edward is. Ok, he's hot, get over it, don't repeat the same thing 20 times every chapter (ain't even exaggerating). Been planning to catch the movie too once Yubin is back from Tasmania, but the horrific reviews is giving me second thoughts. Weiliang, Dongkai, and online reviews all rate it as a pathetically bad chick flick, with poor special effects. Will judge for myself soon enough. And waiting to catch The Day The Earth Stood Still too, has high hopes for that one.

Don't know if I will get the other 3 novels in the Twilight series, but the plot seems to deteriorate with each novel. So, in the next few novels, Bella is supposedly almost killed by Victoria, Jacob turns out to be a werewolf, Edward tries to commit suicide thinking Bella is dead but is stopped, Bella loves both Jacob and Edward but decides she loves Edward more.. and then begs Edward to have sex with her so that they can have a child, Bella turns into a vampire herself and Jacob falls in love with Bella's child, and they all live happily ever after. Urm. Okay. Sorry for spoiling it oops, but the plot is so *insert a word of your choice* I couldn't resist commenting.

Christmas coming soon, can't wait for it to get here, for more reasons than one. ;) Off to bed, it's nearly 3!

pjc movie marathon 2008

Went for it. Was pretty good. Watched Awake, Hansel and Gretel, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, Kung Fu Panda, TMNT. Liked all of them.

Anyway this year's movie marathon was even better than last year's. They had a mini buffet and loads of different drinks. There was an X-box and PS-2 setup for people who got bored of watching movies to play. Atmosphere was pretty good.

Need to start correcting my body clock soon.

End product, looks good and tastes good. Not bad for a first-timer like me! Haha. And I am the cake mixture saviour. Hahaha!
Prom was boring, and the food was terrible.

in compliance

Lingxin asked me to do this 10 weird things about myself thing. Haha ok, I shall comply. 10 weird things about myself.

1) I hold my breath whenever I step into a lift and I hold it all the way until I reach the destination floor. Bet you didn't know that. And the record, for your information, is holding my breath for about 60 floors. More than 2 minutes.

2) I like to make funny faces at myself in the mirror at home before I bathe.

3) I am a 19 year old guy, and I have 6 soft toys on my bed.

4) I don't like all insects, dead or alive, and I don't even dare to touch pictures of insects in books.

5) I like to do things at nice numbers around the clock, such as 3.15, 3.30, etc; I don't like starting on tasks at times like 3.20, etc.

6) The first thing I notice about a girl is her eyes, and the first thing I notice about a guy is how many pimples he has.

7) I like to loop a nice song for an entire night, and I will get sick of it and won't listen to it for the next 2 weeks.

8) I like to read newspapers by putting them down on the floor and lying horizontally across my bed and looking down.

9) I like to see what people are doing on the bus by looking at their reflections, but I never ever do look at them.

10) I like to sleep face down on my pillow. (Don't ask me how I breathe)

i am turning vegetarian

My mum, sis, Yubin and I had dinner at New York New York today. Yubin and I shared this big meat platter for 2 (supposedly for 2) but it came with so much meat. Lamb chops, roasted chicken, fried chicken, potato wedges, salad, baked beans, corn, whatever. So much meat. Oh my god. The plate was huge, almost took up the whole 4-seater table. For $36.90 for the platter, we couldn't finish it at all and my mum and sis had to help finish it. And I realise I really hate lamb chops. Should have ordered the seafood platter maybe. Grilled prawns, crabs, dory fish sound so much better.

So bloated. See? SQ is not a big eater. (: So much meat today, I am turning vegetarian tomorrow! (only for tomorrow)

Time to study Literature. 11 am tomorrow and it's over. Goodbye to A levels, in advance.

so hot, you say it twice

Madagascar 2 was great, an improvement over the first one though the plot was flimsy. Still, this one was more interactive and emotion provoking compared to the first one. Laughter throughout punctuated by some really touching scenes.

Last paper on the 21st but there's such a long break throughout that I simply don't have the mood to pick myself up and study again. But oh well, since it's already good game for me, I shan't care that much.

Good day today, tata.

dump bras. ban textiles.

I hope the Cambridge examiners don't cringe at the sight of my handwriting. It's really terrible, far worse than my usual handwriting cause I am rushing to write as much as I can. Maybe they won't understand my handwriting and then fail my paper.

So when I get my A level cert with a DDD next year, I know what happened.

That's a more comforting thought. (:

I am worried. I accidentally wrote 9732/01 on my paper yesterday when it should have been 9732/02. I accidentally wrote my paper 2 as paper 1 on my cover page. Cambridge, don't purposely fail me plzzzz. Then again, I know that's why I would only get D for my econs.

Ok, I feel so much better.

Not my fault. Not my fault. Not my fault. Not my fault. Not my fault. Not my fault. Not my fault.

lol SQ got owned.

..owned big time in fact.

P Geog was a disaster for me, don't mention it.

Maths wasn't good as well, I screwed up my hypothesis testing question and I misinterpreted the tree probability diagram question accidentally, and my last question for the apples I made a major careless mistake by forgetting to square the standard deviation to calculate variance. -.-

That's about 30 marks gone (all those questions are about 10 marks each, with the latter 20 marks due to careless mistakes). /killmeplz

After the 13th, I can finally take a breather. Oh well, doom is only gonna come next year anyway, no need to fret... yet.

Tuesday, October 28, 2008

this is the last time

Just 1 short entry before I go back to my rendezvous with Miss Pgeog.

My sister came back from her wallaby in Australia. Don't ask me what a wallaby is, I didn't ask, I never ask any of my family members about their careers. Up till now, I don't even know which army camp my sister works in.. Anyway she bought me a nice big Billabong bag and a huge luggage bag of chocolates. I better not eat too much of the chocolates in case I fall sick again. Say hi to me if you see me in school yea? I will offer you something. (: She bought me a tie too. She supposedly went to some big fashion shop in Aus and asked a pretty prominent local designer about what tie colour I should match my prom shirt with. So she bought me this dark-coloured tie through his recommendation.. which I don't think fits my prom shirt colour at all. Oh well, I will just wear it on prom night to avoid disappointing her.

Revision is coming to a standstill, it's getting draggy and I can't wait for it to be over. I know I am gonna disappoint myself when the results come back, I know I will tell myself on that day how much better I could, and should, have done. I know I will regret when that day comes, but like everyone else, I just can't be bothered about that now.

I told Daryl before, if you had asked me just before I came Pioneer what I expected to get for A levels, the thought of anything less than straight A's would have been ludicrous. But the swagger, or arrogance you may call, is completely gone. I haven't been competitive in my studies for a very long time, especially after I left Hwa Chong. Too many a times I lose to someone in a particular subject, and I am just happy for him/her, and too lazy to play catch up anymore. Motivation seems to be particularly bleak this year, even worse than in J1.

I know you will be very happy when you thrash me on that day, Er Jun Yao. Congratulations.

But I don't care, really. (:





Meanwhile, work hard everyone!

And good luck to you. Work hard! (:

better late than never



Nazri's expression shows that he probably can't get enough of being on top of Mr Sas.
