Study!

Mug mug mug! Yes it s the time. started to mug ald. gonna continue the mugging. started with maths after i woke up from my dreams. been slacking so much that i failed the revision tests. 2 or 3 of them. didnt even look through the topics before the test, so expected sure fail. Anyway i managed to start something and that s an achievement. suddenly have the motivation to do work. maybe it s really that i have nothing else to do at home. no games, no soccer (season break), no prison break, no ncc. nothing else to do but mug.

last sat went for renaissance at UCC NUS. average. but the standard is way too low for a proper concert. plus the horrible audience making so much noise. SJI made a big mistake to force the lower sec to go. dumb dumb

damn sian this week. everyday study maths, coz got so many maths test. everyday. so gonna change mugging subject to chem. saturday and sunday will be totally chem plus a bit of bio and ss.

mon gonna have shatec! yay can go eat something decent. hope it s enriching, these things are important as dining etiquette is something that can be brought into use everyday and later in life, hmmm , especially on dates! haha

wed and fri prelim practicals. shit. hate pracs but dun seem difficult actually. just have to do fast and accurate, be careful. that s all. dun even need to mug, just look through. and the best thing about prac is... no lessons!!! yay! looking forward to next week. even though this period is the most boring period of my life.

Reuben and Ming BD

Yay! I finally broke the 11min 2.4km run barrier. Should have done better but i m ok with 10min 50sec. I couldnt believe myself when i was still jogging at the last 100 metres. Usually i will be sprinting but couldnt muster any more energy and wasnt used to the new starting and finishing line. Expected to end further. If not, could have easily gotten a 10.40 or 30 plus. then shawn wont laugh at me. Argg. But not bad ald i think. As what the bloody shawn always say i m a defender this cannot that cannot dun expect too much but at least the timing was better than some other slayers. Namely strikers who are in sport CCAs *ahem* *RUGBY and JUDO* *ahem* got 11 min plus. And no one can beat ying lun in stamina la. Hockey still best in training stamina or maybe he did some personal trainings. It s good to have a gym in your condo downstairs so you can make use of the facilities and improve fitness. Aiya nothing to say about ming la, i will thank god if he passes 2.4.

Soccer

Anyway s he s a CB so there s hardly any running to do. But honestly speaking the wingers and fullbacks are the ones who needs the most stamina. Especially fullbacks, coz they will not be forgiven if they venture up but never come back to defend. wingers can still camp up there to catch their breath and may not receive cricticism. Centre back, centre mid, centre forward can depend on the flankers to do the running while they just make small movements.

Was talking to ryan just now. He was impressed with a field soccer team. Excited sec 1 wanting to play a decent match on the field. considered him but he s too short and weak. talent is there. similar playing style as shawn. in short, he s the successor for shawn at the street soccer court. What a waste, still 153cm. i told him to grow taller and stronger then maybe can have trial. Not bad for a winger, super sub maybe. There s also binn binn who is definitely a striker. out and our striker. potential. Will take note of these 2. and their friend from squash. leftie. Good enough for sec 1 standard, will also take note of his progress.

Sounds like i m starting a youth academy or something. But we really need new players. And young peeps are the best. coz they dun mind warming the bench and come on late late in the game to give their 150% to prove their worth. See how everything goes after O level in November.

End of soccer

Saturday was a day for 2 people. Reuben and Chien Ming. The former born on 11/7/91 while the latter born on 15/7/91. shit i might have gotten the latter's birthdate wrongly. his brain was born in the year 2004. body 1991. Chien Ming the freak with a pea brain of a 3 year old. I dun have to elaborate further if you know this guy. Master of all stupid things.

Anyway it was their celebration so met up at 12 at cine to buy tics and eat quick lunch then went down to meridien to play LAN and pool. people present were 8,9,11,12,14,22. 3 on 3 CZ. had a pretty good game, found a new gun that s good for head shots. can scope to be more accurate but can also shoot without scoping. Pool was ok as well. Had many good shots. Mostly tyco but some really had that intention. Hmm.. afterall i have some skill in pool.

Met 6 ZX the slut and chionged to cine again to watch transformers. Good show. 4.5/5 stars. action, eye candies present, all emotions tested, good sound etc. overall it s good. the 0.5 stars went to the lousy seat we got. i sat first row alone coz i could see a shit sitting all the way to the side on the 2 nd row.

Then walked to Somerset where we parted with Duracell Bunny. Stupid ming managed to squeeze his way into a fully packed train to City Hall while the rest of us waited for the next train. And ming messaged back to call us noobs. Wth. the next train came in a few seconds and we had all the fresh air we wanted. Met up with the pea brain at City Hall the chiong through City Link to Marina Square. Slut dispersed and went home. Met Hawn there at Yuki Yaki. Booked a table ald so wasnt a problem with seating. Ate until siao, mainly beef. We killed maybe 2 cows. Food was ok but some beef was too hard. Bloody hell, these peeps cant cook for nuts. I rather eat rare than fully cooked. Anyway it was quite ok la. As usual pea brain started to play with food, cooking a piece of beef over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. So beef become BAK QUA. Then the rest started to follow and play with fish balls, chicken wing, pour soup and drink into the cooking area. Best is still the ping pong. Refer to reuben s blog for pics. didnt take a single pic that day. too lazy.

After that walked all the way to paradiz to play LAN for a while. CZ got owned and then played fifa 07. beat shawn 4-2. couldnt finish the second match then zhao. was so damn lonely on the train. listened to music and stare and people. some mud group in front of me with piercings all over. sick. maybe they are JJ's gore friends.

Anyway reached home at 12.15. got screwed the next day for not studying but going out the whole day. damn. but i think it s quite worth it. Although my birthday was much more fun than this celebration, it was a non-stop action day. which was good as it meant good planning.

Boring school week

Boring school week.

Monday exercised after school by kicking about for a while. realised it s stupid to mug all day and not exercise. immunity level will drop like hell and will fall sick easily. i hate falling sick. so will still be jogging regularly.

Tuesday did nothing actually. Was bored to tears. Mugging here and there. bits and pieces. cant concentrate. either too tired or just cant concentrate when at the table with books. especially with things i dun understand.

Wednesday went to coronation after physics test. the test wasnt too good for me. started late and wasted a lot of time on MCQ. shit i havent mastered the skill of skipping questions. it s too tempting to try and complete the question not caring about the time. Went coronation to meet cedric, the t shirt making guy. gave design and told him everything that we wanted.

Thursday, that s today. bored again. going to mug for chem and maths later. chatted with ying lun just now. life is so complicated. and life is boring without talking to your old mates. hope things turn for the better soon...

Soccer summer signings

Hey this entire post will be on soccer. so dun bother reading if you are not interested.

The transfer market is on the high now. Almost a month ago, Man utd sign a trio worth 50 million pounds, namely Nani, Anderson and Hargreaves. it s worth the money but i dunno about hargreaves. where on earth is he gonna play? carrick and scholes now own the CM but soon, the more attacking scholes will be replaced by Anderson while Nani replaces Giggs. And what makes the Hargreaves signing more weird is that Man U almost comfirm the signing of Tevez. If Tevez is there, with Rooney upfront, it s impossible to play a 5 man midfield. Seems like carrick is gonna be benched. too bad.

Liverpool completed the signing of Fernando Torres while Luis Garcia goes to Atheletico. Will miss Garcia. He s a darn good player. Super versatile. Anywhere in MF except DM and anywhere up front. and his headers are darn good despite his height. Looking forward to days with Torres. Heard he had 11 different hair cuts so far and 3 tatoos. Interesting player. Fowler gone, and bellamy should go soon. That leaves Crouch, Kuyt and Torres. Benitez will rotate again. Now, Torres is the permanent Striker, Kuyt and Crouch take turns to be benched. BUT, another problem. What on earth is gonna happen to the 5 CMs now? Gerrard, alonso, mascherano, sissoko, leivia all wanna play first team. Gerrard is comfirm in so only one more guy can partner him. Or maybe benitez plays 4-5-1 and sacrifice Kuyt and Crouch. But it seems like liverpool is ready to let players get injured. January transfer window is gonna be interesting though.

Btw, dudek zhao ald. that means next season most likely reina take no.1 jersey. like van der sar. the no. 10 jersey is also vacated by garcia, so maybe kuyt will take that.

Sorry i bluffed you that this entire post will be on soccer. had chinese o level oral today. was the last to have oral in my group. topic was about singaporeans not exercising. talked a whole lot of crap and the teacher didnt say anything. say the question and i just replied with reason, outcome and suggestions. then zhao. shouldnt be that bad. passage had about 1 or 2 words read wrongly. otherwise, should be ok.

AP on Sat, 7/7/07. come if you want. 5pm.

Milk Run

Hi again. Went for Milk Run today at Zouk, Jiak Kim Road which is opposite Great World City. Actually wanted to make something like a class t-shirt for the part As but the stupid guy in charge wasnt there. So went to Coronation plaza and met Matthew and Julian before taking a cab to Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel. Met mr wee there to take attendance before meeting Cheng Weng who decided to pon after taking attendance. The Zouk carpark was freaking crowded. both the public and private ones. here are some pics to show the scene.




>>> This is in the public carpark. Something s going on onstage. Can you see who s the one in bright green T-shirt?




>>> If you still cant se clearly, i ll tell ya, it s Lionel Lewis. Singapore soccer team GK who played yesterday against the Aussies. Cant believe he s so free to come for this kind of crap. He s sitting on some plank and below him is a tub of water. So he s suppose to balance himself as long as possible. It s some kind of game la. Cant be bothered with him. But once in a while you will hear a shriek from some female fans then BOOM, you dun see him anymore.

Then a few seconds later, you see a drench Lionel Lewis sitting back there. LAME.





>>> This is to show how crowded it was. Melvin from the Kiddo Central that your younger sibling will surely know said that there s about 10 000 people for the community run. While Class 95 DJs said there was 12 400 people in total. That s nuts. Must be those rejects who couldnt get the tics to enter the National Stadium yesterday that make up the number.




>>> Just some pics that were taken along the way. The walk finally started after half an hour waiting at the start point for everyone to clear the path. It was so damn crowded and hot. No need to run ald sweating.






>>> Hmm... nice field eh?





>>> Cheaters cutting across the field when we are suppose to follow the long path. Yup, the cheaters include the one who took this photo.




>>> And more cheaters and slackers!!!



>>> Finally continued walking... after a 'deserved' break at 7/11






>>> Some guy scratching his ass.. and a nut case ghost with a towel over the head.




>>> Matthew found this quite funny. Not the people la. something that reminds us of Nippon Paint Ippei and Next Please!




>>> Look closer! Maybe the hot ball is funnier..






>>> Awww... this walk reminds me of the Slayers nightwalk on my birthday.. I seem to have some affinity with Clarke Quay isnt it?





>>> All good and bad things have to come to an end right? Maybe.. not. More good things. Too bad the face is blurred but that s cutie pie sec 1 joel from ncc. (right) Best recruit. Every teacher loves him... too cute ald.





>>> More good things as we slacked at Great World's Coffee Bean. Matthew (left) and i had the same drink.. guess what? Espresso Chip!! Rocks..





>>> Finally left for home on the shuttle bus to City Hall. Was too bored so took some pics along the way.


>>> Shopping Centre above Clarke Quay MRT


>>> Just some nice view of the sun setting in the city on a bridge. Can see the 2 towers sticking out. Hmm.. shld have waited a while more maybe could have seen a ball joined by 2 elastic wire to the tower flying above the buildings.

>>> City Hall MRT. i think that s Funan in the background.

Oooooppss.. the next pic is kinda disgusting. but i just uploaded it anyway. Took it on the packed MRT train.

>>> This is the ultimate Singapore AUNTIE. i didnt dare to take close up. but you shld be able to see some 'cilia' at the armhole, for non-bio students, cilia means = hair like structure. OOOPS. Shouldnt have said that.

It s damn sick. This person was reading some chinese book in one hand, a BIG bag of Seiyu plastic bag in front of her which is near to the door and grabbing the pole above head for stability. The worst thing is that the handle dangling off the horizontal pole is not taken, but this person is so inconsiderate to lift her hand 180 degrees to grab the handrill even when she knows

1) She s short

2) Wearing a sleeveless shirt

3) Forgot to groom certain part

I was totally disgusted standing next to this person. Even a manly athlete with big biceps and a bushy pit wouldnt do that. It s only right to try to cover things that others wouldnt want to see in a public place and she should just hold the handle that was much lower for her and that would not be unsightly.

Sorry if i made you spill your computer table or keyboard with vomit. But i warned you! That s all folks! Looney tune.. Da da da da da da da da da da da da... da da da da da DA!
