This is my second entry for today. haha dunno why but after being cut off from the world for so long i actively seek to make amends.
I think im becoming a serious shopaholic. The amount of time i spend shopping, trying on clothes and all would put my sister to shame.
A bigger chunk of my allowance is now in the "SAVE CEPHAS'S WARDROBE" fund. Which i might add is never in 3digit land.
Linda liao!!!

Gone so Young
I'm sorry to all if i seemed unstable the last entry. It was a PMS-adolescent-whining-The world hates me- phase.
Just came back from church camp. Played Polar bear till 5am or some shit like that. Those people are amazing. Can entertain themselves for infinitely long periods. This also means that i laughed for about 8 hours straight and am now increasingly delusional and hallucinating.
Does anyone have XBOX games? im sick of Project Gotham Racing.

It sucks
21 days left to the end of the year. Yet the word surrounding what my life this year has revolved around is failure.
Failure to keep you happy. Failure to make the NJC soccer team. Failure to prevent my friends from drifting away.
Someone once commented that success as a person is how many people remember your birthday. Failure again.
This again is no stranger to my life of half chances, regrets and falling short. I cant even count the number of times i have told myself "I should have done this." or regretted what i have done or said.
My heart hurts. It sounds so melodramatic and so emo "john-huang style" but its true and i cannot take this. Somewhere somehow, the hurting must stop. I cant see the end but you are all i got.
The clutching ache on the left of my chest is now a dull throb that is emotionally draining. This transcends physical pain.

so much for words
You know how people use the phrase "words cant describe" ?
I want to blog on a most unforgettable birthday; on my feelings; on everything that has happened. But fuck, I have been staring at this white box for five minutes and the words aren't coming out. Fuck.
i got you.

reminisce part 1
if you could relive one day of your life, which would it be?
Saw this question on some random blog.
Without a moment's hesitation, i would choose my Secondary school promenade.
Held at the Raffles TownClub (=/) it was a night of beauty and glamour.
the hottest class =D
hahaha
you can barely recognise them.
haha.
I cant find the photos i took with scouts!!!! oh no.
If i could relive just one day, it would be that day.

oh no
He is robinho; Real madrid and Brazil fame.
I want his boots!!!!!!
haha never mind.
We lost 1-0 to JJC.
It was my fault. Having chased this zai guy for the whole of the match, i was left chasing his shadow for the last five minutes.
When he ran past me, i was so tired i just let him pass. From the resulting kick he played the striker and that guy scored.
In the 88th minute.
Bitch.
But to have held the 3rd in the nations to 2 minutes to a credible draw while missing 7 key players (Greg, Felix, Kc, Hee, Shangji, Seng, Cherngchu), i felt we did well.
I sucked however.

gangbang
i was raped!
@#%$&%$&*$^%
The moment i reached Sentosa everyone was like "bond ah!!!!"
I was left stranded, naked totally BUTT NAKED in the sea while everyone wanted to bury my underwear. like wtf.
And i think there were jellyfish in the water. i felt stings. ouch.
I think it was a rather succcessful class outing, considering the relative success/attendance/enthusiasm rates of our previous outings.
We had fun with 06s75 balancing the guy/girl ratio to a more respectable and credible level.Females of 06s68; you should be ashamed of yourselves.
And in a flash, one year of my life as a JC student is over. Have i wasted it? i don't know. I had fun; at least i THINK i did. I learnt more about myself this year than any other. How i react to stress and committment. I guess i also saw the ugly side of students; students who are only concerned about the grades they get and not the way they get them.
I learnt about many things i guess...
TOmorrow; match against jjc. hope we win.

blessings.
Tuesday: Had training as usual. Did basically routine stuff, yet i felt myself getting better and better. My shots though not fantastic, certainly felt better. The dynamics within the team certainly felt better now, with something that sort of resembles team spirit. I felt i sort of impressed during the after training game, with me assisting two goals and scoring one for our 3-1 win. yupp. pro =D
This was a break from my usual "fuck-lah-should-have-tried-harder" mentality that i suffer from after every training. I seriously hope i can start for the tournament next year; maybe score against NJC. heh.
soccer is consuming me. seriously. I know many around me, my family included feel that i am wasting my time; fighting so hard, giving up precious time for something which in which i have no chance of winning. My parents feel i should get a job and not waste their hard earned money buying icecream and NewUrbanMale slippers. I guess i always enjoyed, took pride in what people felt were nonsense. No matter what detractors say, i am proud of who i am, what i am, and what i have done.
When im old, wrinkled and a little less tall,dark and handsome i would feel proud, knowing that at one point of my life, i have given my all, strived to be the better individual, person, and player in the hope of what might have been nothing but a pipe dream. But all greatness started from dreams.
but then, this might all remain as a dream.

PW is over. get out of my life.
Its been a long 8 months or so since we started.
We loathed it but as i went on i developed a sort of grudging respect for it.
It certainly taught me skills, irrelevant to my life as it may seem.
substantiating, filing, evaluating.
I guess one day it might be useful, though i still have no idea why.
It seems like Mount everest.
While climbing the mountain you might be like " I hate climbing and im going to buy a KFC family feast and finish it and damn you may you get blown into pieces and i wish the world was as flat as a teenage girl's chest."
When you finish, you respect it.
haha. rubbish.
yupp.
Tomorrow is West coast CC open house. the west coast eagle scouts affiliated from River Valley fame have set up a stall. Hope you all will go.
FIshing. heh.

bookworm
haha im a bookworm!
Been going to the library so often these days. Borrowing book after book after book. I think i read more after promos than before. hmm. weird.
Anyway threw away my T90 pair of boots. after 4 months and about 60 sessions of football it has finally reached its end. the side tore and the studs are eroded. Godspeed. ?It has certainly served me well, providing snug support and excellent control.
Looking for new boots to buy. yupp.

a loooooooooooooooong update.
1. been going to bedok reservoir road to teach tuition to the Tan family with chihua. haha. really fun and i earned hundred bucks and counting there le. Really lucrative and fun!
2. Got my promos results slip yeaterday. yeap. ABBB and B for Gp. my mom was kinda like " What? 1 A only? " -.-
3. Been training like mad for soccer recently; apart from the normal whacking sessions every monday, wednesday and friday, i still try to go for runs like every other day. im sure my hard work will pay off in one way or another. yeah. HC's no.7 is me (:
4. Retain. So many people around me are retaining. from scouts, from nj soccer from hc soccer. Even those that i barely know i also feel quite sad, cause its like you're missing one year. But seriously, if you work like damn fucking hard for this year, it might be better. Just keep your feet on the ground and lao tian you yan.
5. pw. I am seriously starting to despise that bloody @#$^@ subject. I mean given the amount of work ( rather the lack of amount of work) my group and i have done over the year i seriously don't expect more but i can be quite depressing that i am going to fuck up ANOTHER subject ( the prior being my o-level chinese). Now the saints in us will surely think " don't worry lah! work hard now. OP is 40%!". But it lets me think, if i can make up slacking during the whole year with a sensational presentation, won't the whole subject be a bloody fiasco?
Did you know, primary school is simply fucked up. There's standard and foundation level now, similar to h1 and h2 levels at secondary schools, which is simply confusing especially for our project which is on education and helping dumb poor children. sigh.
Singpore is getting more and more screwed up and our governments are showing more and more signs of weakness. From the rather ridiculous IP programme to the botched ECP plans, its clear the government is not the excellent governemnt our social studies textbooks would have us believe. But then again, i might get arrested ):
haha yes olivia i am updating.

The calm before the storm.
This picture was sent to me by rachel (that yellow thing). It was taken in perak, west malaysia. Me (left), Rachel andthe big tree looking like monster on the right were the chosen few to go on this journey. It was so fun!
The reason why iom posting this picture today is the green confetti we are wearing. See those things that look like bra straps? They are actually made from leaves, like woven rfom palm leaves. So amazing!
They were gifts given to us by the orang asli for us to join in their tribal dance. I remembered them making these things for us in the afternoon. There would be a gigantic pile of leaves and they would be slowly weaving them into these wwonderful albeit shortlived souvenirs. I tried to smuggle one back to singapore and for a few days it was on my table. Until it started to decompose.
There's a certain rustic charm to the lives the people lead. they are seemingly satisfied with the dilapitated huts they live in and the third world conditions, slimy toilets and all. NO shopping centres, no EPL, no pretty girls in miniskirts, no alcohol, no zara, no topman, no NIKE and no sukisushi. How do they do this?
It sounds so cliched to say that i want to give it all up and return to nature. BUt that appeals to me in a twisted way. When im eighty?
Haha.
back to the books honey.
They seemed happy when we visited them, always smiling. i am kinda jealous. No doubt the conditions of living i have

There's a tiger behind every lion.
I went to watch the match at National stadium yesterday!
Here are some pics.
The scoreboard reads Singapore 0-0 China. (:
My gate.
The PEOPLE
This was went Shao Jiayi was sent off. haha. cant really see lah.
That Shao jiayi. China's no.8. He's really good. At the 80t minute. He just took the ball near the centre line and ran. and ran. and ran. The Singapore defenders like bugs like that. easily brushed off. Then a timely intervention by lionel lewis, man-of-the-match for me stopped him. Singapore conceded like 684314384 corners lah. BUt this china defender who looked like cambiasso sent dreadful corners into the box. haha.
GO SINGAPORE!

new look
This picture is drawn by rachel! of my new hair. haha. cool man.
Going back to river valley tomorrow. Its a bittersweet feeling. like how all of us have been thrust into the alien world of jc and poly. It definitely has not been easy.
This is a normal picture of me sleeping in class. terribly unglam, i know. But what to do, i just don't get it.
I bet you've never seen me like this in river valley, casue mainly the plastic chairs were rickety and the tables so old that i would never have dared to put my head on it and sleep.
Many people feel that river valley protects us from the perils and dangers too much, and that we are kept in some protective bubble away from the dangers of society. I felt the same way too back then. But looking back, i am thankful (:
Cant wait to kick ball with them. pity star player waludin is in australia.

o happy day!
actually no that was to mislead you. My life is kinda boring. I haven't really felt absolutely elated in months now, where i would wake up and thinking about school i would smile. I actually felt that way in sec 4 where i could see 4i and then at njc in the first three months. of course you might argue that i was absent from class most of the time at njc 06s13 but surely, i digress (:
But the thing is, im actually dreading school now. as the days past and we're continuing our freefall towards 26th september where the gates of hell will open, legions of demons armed with stacks of paper will descend upon us, sowing terror and fear into the lands of Hwachong (and pretty much any jc around singapore) until all thats left of the students are smouldering wrecks and defeated souls. This event of catastrophic proportions is also affectionately known as "promotional end of year exams", "promos", "end of years" and "doom".
Oh well, life wasn't meant to be a bed of roses.
Life is passing me by. seriously. in a blink of an eye. and here i am blogging while half of hwachong is doing their tutorials while the other half is revising that tutorial.
It seems very philosophical to tell myself (and you) that life isn't about mugging and studying and the never ending paper chase; and that we should actually stop, relac and smell the roses. oh please.
but at the same time, i'm lost for my subjects, especially chem and physics. ESPECIALLY physics. oh my god man physics. I cannot take it.

Pure and honest
Yeap that's the logo for my primary school. Wearing the yellow and blue of faifield, i still remember singing the school song every evening for the 7th to 12th years of my life. I remember the principal told us "once a fairsian, always a fairsian". Oh well.
I wrote an email asking the school to grant me an interview with the school teachers. For more leverage i included in the fact that i was an ex-student and how their help would benefit our pw project. Oh well that was 5 days ago and still no word.
Alot of times i wish i was back in primary school. It was a time when i really should have held on to. A time when nothing mattered. Now, everything i do has to be accouunted for and that really takes the zest out of my already flat boring life.
What happened? i don't know. Spiderman said" with great power comes great responsibility" I feel the responsibility but i for SURE don't feel the power.
Sian. I sound whiny again.
You know in comics and dramas there is always this proverbial good guy? He is the one that patiently waits for his love to leave the flashy playboy and return to his lovng arms. He is the one with no home, a drunkard for a father and a whore for a mother yet still provides for them with no aim of reward. He can give up everything for his country. He is rugged, tanned and muscular, with macho hair and might know certain kungfu skills. Of course the producers of the show will ensure he dies in the middle of the show but surely i digress.
The point is, if such a hypothetical person would to emerge in my life, i would hate him. See people like him make snobs like me look bad.
im not a nice person. And when things don't go my way, i turn ugly. I whine, i scream and its not a pleasant sight. i bitch about so many things in my life whether its my fault or not.
On a more pleasant note, i have attepmted to complete the arene's tutorial.
Oh ya, Happy birthday XINWEI!

I suck.
Played the chinese high school yesterday. lost 2-1.
REally disappointed with myself. Played the first half. I didn't make mistakes per se but i also didn't do anything spectacular or outstanding that could have saved what is an absolutelyfucking humiliating experience.
The chinese high team were fast. Though i felt they lacked composure. But that can be trained. If they work hard, the future is bright.
I won't bitch about how we lost. But while we made the mistakes, they didn't. They deserved to win.
It's so frustrating to want to win and it just doens't work.
From coldplay:
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
I think it can.
i shall learn from him.

a new beginning
changed my blogskin after everyone said it made them dizzy.
tomorrow going swimming for the last time. But seriously i don't understand why people don't like swimming. Its actually fun! just rather mafan. to bring the necessary equipment.
Doing pw now. hard to find stats on the dropout rates of poor students. I'm sure moe would tell everyone on how badly the poor students flunk out of school.
Just read Rimmel's blog, on how she doesn't like hwachong. I can sympathise with what she's feeling. If not for 06s68 i would probably hate this place too.
Thinking back, its been 7 months i've lived the jc life; three in njc four in hc. it has definitely not been easy. I have faced times when the tutorials piled up so badly i just wanted to incinerate them and offer to to spongebob in the ocean. I have lived with my constantly, heart stopping fluctuating marks where i can ace one test and flunk flunk FLUNK the next. (except for physics; that one confirm die)
For all who are still in sec school rmb to NOT slack during first three months. That is the most impt time as it builds up your foundation.
I really miss team njc. The hell we were put through unde tammy. It really improved me as a soccer player and as a teaam player. The seniors were lovely people, offering constant support and cheers even when you suck as badly as me.
In hc its a new environment. Its not LOUSY. its just different. sigh.
Also 06s13 my 1st three months class. Heard they bottomed the cohort for 3 out of 4 subs. WOOHOO!
getting chem paper today. please let me get a B

fields of gold and green
world cup fever is at its max these days;
watched portugal lose to a #$%@!$#^ germany last night. admit i was pissed. portugal had the better chances, just tat a certain SCHWIENSTEIGER decided to shoot two lovely shots. oh well.
watched figo play in a portugal jersey for the last time. remember him playing for madrid, for barca and now for inter milan. One of the greatest players of the "golden generation". Yet looking at last night's match, with miguel, deco, cristiano ronaldo indeed the golden generation isn't over.
To tonight's match; Last match of the world cup. I thus shall maintain my world cup profit of $9 and not bet. As they say "The only way to get your money back in a betting shop is to fold it and put it in your wallet." haha.
From a football point of view i shall support Italy. Italy have played attractive football while maintaining their defensive stature. France committed the sin of eliminating my lovely portugal, so retire without winning,zizou

fatigue
wah i cannot take it. It has been 18 hours and counting since i last visited dreamland. Woke up last night to watch italy vs germany. It was a most exciting match. Most people might say italians are a team of boring cheats with no attacking flair but i actually feel that they had more chances than germans. oh well. you cant please everyone.
was zombie-ing around in school today. too tired.
Went training. not bad. the coach praised me a few times (YEAH BABY) i was really pleased!
wah i cant move my leaden fingers to slug out this entry. will update during halftime.

FUTBOL
Yesterday went to ong ze bah house to watch soccer. more specifically to just act gay and brokeback around. First match germany won on penalties, really exciting stuff! made even more exciting by the fact that kenn and jie li both bet on argentina, while the prudent, smart me did not bet.
Germany won that one 1-0 by the way.
here are some pics of the match!
A picture speaks a thousand words
klose
woohoo!
next was the entertaining part. Italy vs Ukraine. Me and my friends shared a bet of 1-0 to italy and draw.
the first goal [big money big money]
The second italian goal. We are sunk.
sob.
*tears betting slip.
Went to kick ball just now. leg pain pain.

hace
Ladies and Gentlemen. Introducing the Hace club! Hace, meaning Hot and Cool Edmund club is the new in thing.
Edmund being our lovely president, we have decided to pledge our undying love, patience and support for him! Indeed Edmund is the spirit of norton. We would be hard pressed to find someone more charismatic, outspoken, suave and down right electrifying. He unites the arabs and the jews, the israelites and the pakistanis, the PAP and the WP. we lay down our arms and just ogle at him, wishing we were him.
Quote from rachel's blog:
Edmund is a giant magnet and we are all little iron fillings.
Edmund is a proton and we are all little electrons, propelled by nature to him.
Edmund is a flower and we are all little bees, queing up to kallang to get a piece of him.
When edmund walks on the streets, flowers are in bloom, the sun is shining, the bees hum a melodious harmony all in anticipation and hope that he would spare them a microsecond of his attention.
When edmund takes a swim, waves are calmed, fishes form a guard of honor, surrounding him.
When edmund leaves a certain place, the skies pour and heavens tear.
Fireworks dance and serende him; Birds awaken him with a chorale of melody.
Edmund, oh edmund.
how we long to honor you.
We want to erect temples and statues in your honor, engraving your name on every inch of surface we can find.
Edmund; so hot, so cool; what more can you ask for.
But a further dissection of the above logo, we see a coffee bean.
A bean.
edmund the king, he sure like coffee bean.
now he is pres. but beans is all he cares.
edmund the king. he's buying diamond ring.
edmund the pres. bean to him is the best.
Hail Edmund=)
+due to tremendouos support towards edmund, the hace committee has decided to open up more places. Interested applicant please leave a tag on the tagboard. Thank you and love edmund.

THE CAGE
Today went to Kallang to celebrate Khoo's birthday. We went to the cage! The cage has UEFA and FIFA endorsed turf in it!
for more information, visit here
Anyway, it was really really fun. I'm sure Khoo enjoyed himself. Happy 17th birthday k?
When we went home we got to taste a different side of Singapore. Look around you everyone. The sky scrapers, buildings around you. Who builds them? The workers. While walking from the cage to Kallang mrt, we saw a pickup at the side of the road. Jireh thus jumped into the pickup and we took a picture of him. HAHA but the driver was alerted and he came out, He was shocked to see a bunch of adolescent teens crowding his vehicle.
Us:" Uncle we can lompang(hitch a ride) anot?"
Uncle" We going Jurong leh"
Us" OK!"
Uncle" I picking up other workers later. I lompang you all to the nearest bus stop ok?"
So we happilty clambered in.
On the pickup were several workers and we talked to them
Khoo:" The driver, is he your foreman?"
Bangla:" No he is my engineer"
Khoo:"Then where is your foreman?"
Bangla:"You see us, 1..2..3..4.., FOREMAN!"
wtf.
On am more solemn note my chem test today died

smells like team spirit
Team spirit. It has often been undersetimated in sports, in activities across humanity in general. We often see the collection of all-star teams, playing supposed fantasy football, calling themselves the best team on the planet. what rubbish.
A great, rather cliched example used would be the dutch. Them and their egos. How they have always battled with each other during tournaments, only to self combust. Clarence seedorf, a midfielder always interrupted the coach's talk to give his own opinion. He demanded to be played in his favourite position, threatening to walk out if it wasn't agreed to. He came to training late, slacked off. Now, he has been sacked from the team and suddenly, holland look like champs again.
A united team will always be stronger than a divided one. Bricks need cement to hold them together. Sticks need glue. Snails need slime to grip on to the leafs. Players need team spirit.
It is never easy trying to get into a new team, a team where everyone knows everyone else already. A team where they have been good friends for 4plus years, playing football and just interacting with each other. Cliques are rife in this team and they just stick together. Try being someone new, whose capabilities are not spectacular and it is very hard to turn their disapproving stares into smiles. They maybe view me as someone taking their place, someone spoiling the perfect chemistry between each other.
I miss the njc soccer team, where everyone was really good friends. They had a thrashing session once in a while and you voiced out your disapprovements with whatever your team mate did, on or off the field. There was no animosity and the seniors, despite knowing the places were being threatened by the new j1 blood, never did anything to make you feel unwelcome. Its a real warm place where everyone just keeps on laughing.
I remember the times in malacca. where we just laughed on the bus, secretly for fear of angering ms ho, but still laughing. Despite losing the match and you know you fucked up, after the thrashing out session that happens, we remain good friends.
i hope things improve

I'm Hot
I'm sick. Again.
It really sucks when you fall ill time and time again, despite all your efforts to stay healthy.
I drink water like a fish. Even when im not thirsty. I eat vegetables, fruits even the occasional vitamin C pill.
I don't really know how this started. My best guess is that is when i started going to soccer training at december. When i started training, i pushed my body to the maximum of its capabilities. I never slacked during trainings regardless of how "hiong" or how useless i felt the training was going to me. I put in the cliched"110%" everyday under arasu, ms ho or just going for a run by myself. But despite following the advices of everyone to keep myself hydrated and never push yourself over the edge and eating a full meal 2 hours after training, the sickness was inevitable.
Like a ghost, it haunted me, trailing me, swinging its sceptre at my head. Perhaps it is some supernatural, spiritual being that haunts me. I've lost count of the number of times i went for training with a sore throat, a runnny nose, a fever(slight) or a combination of the above three. Its never easy excelling in training, all the more given disadvantages in my body.
Now, i've given up. Its no use trying to rescutiate the inevitable. Hence, DON"T.
+im going for camp youthnique tml. hope it doesn't suck.

im hot
The weather is so hot these days. Temperatures have reached a sizzling 34 degrees according to my fridge magnet thermometer. I pespire wherever i go. When i read books, when i eat instant noodles, when i drink lychee juice, when i move my leaden fingers to slug out this entry. I guess this is why many "weather" has been listed as a possible cause for migration according to Secondary School Geography.
Hot weather has never been conducive for studying. Your body is a caramel-like glob that can stick all your notes. Your sweat pours forth till it really runneth over and your notes become incomprehensible. It is painful to study and thus, many a times, lesser mortals would have gone to sleep.
Herein lies the problem. The scheming timetable planners(grrr) planned our exams after the holidays! It seems foolhardy not to study. Yet everyday the weather preys on my weak body and even weaker mind that the question is not whether i will stop studying, rather when will i stop.
and my aircon is spoilt! :'(

The faster we're falling
we're stopping and stalling
we're running in circles again

a barbe.
Last time in 2k, we had a slacker's corner. It was at the right hand back corner of the class. Then during lesssons everyone just "kun". or sleep if you like it. haha. It was hilarious. The corner had me, SiQi, Xuankai, Desmond, Valerie, Rimmel, Zhenling and maybe others which i couldn't remember. But seeing how SLACK we were, we have done pretty decently at the o-level.
And to think i was nearly expelled for failing chinese at that time.
Surely, the doomsayers and naybringers got it wrong this time.
Yesterday bbq was a decent one. It was held at the Blue Horizon condominium, where ben yap lived. Ben shifted house AGAIN, from the carribean no less lah. haha rich boy. That place is really very nice! The houses all very blue-ish and ocenish. haha.
The food was so-so lah, typical bbq fare. Except the cheese hot dogs. omg i am seriously getting fat, just thinking about those juicy rolls of meat. they are vv nice! but i ate a few only cause they were vvv filling.
Talked alot of crap yesterday about our various new schools or polys. Real nice, everyone has a tale to share about how cool/uncool their school is. haha.
One thing about the bbq, there were 2 distinct clans yesterday. Like one side sit here, one side sit there. sigh.
chase the ball man.

ball chasing
"cause these are the days worth living
these are the years worth giving
these are the moments
these are the times
lets make the best time of our livvveeeessssss!"
-This is my current fave song our lives- the calling.
Went to Hwa Chong soccer today. It was kind of a culture shock for me. Firstly, the training was really REALLY slack. It was like an own time own target thing. Tamtam would slaughter them and eat them for dessert.
There was this guy, i think he's like the star player or something. then he comes to training late. Then he doesn't participate in the drills or what. Tam will swanton bomb him and then expose him to her five-point exploding palm technique folllowed by the slay-dragon-skip-butterfly- dance-pond kick should he be in nj. But really i dun blame him. Cause like no form of punishment in place anyway. and the drills are kinda boring.
Played in a 7 a side match today. Played like shit but i really enjoyed myself. But i realise my fitness is vvvvvv bad. barely lasted one half. Like that play A division sure die one. Need to work harder. As the Olympic motto says "Citius, Altius, Fortius" which basically means faster, higher stronger. I need to train.

guess who's back
hey pple! back from perak at long last! I had wanted to blog about this for a long time but din really have the opportunity to do so. so here goes!
I went to perak on the 20th of may at 10 pm. the trip there was a 10 hour bus ride. I slept with Rachel (ok that sounds wrong) on the bus. hahahaah. I dun really recall much of the ride cause my eyes were closed.
Upon reaching there our first stop was caving!. We went into Gua temurang. The first part was fascinating cause we could see the various shapes formed by the stalcamites and stalcatites HOWEVER IT IS SPELT. Makes you really wonder at god and nature as a whole as the place was so magnificent and beautiful. Then the second part was the wet part. It was much more exciting and adventurous as we had to crawl, slide, swim, shiver through the various pocks in the cave wall to reach our destination. The whole process was really really nice!
NEXT STOP was WHITEWATER RAFTING! We took a small little inflatable raft and went to row row row the boat down lake tampur. I fell off the boat 2 times!. The first time i fell was in a rapid. It was really really cool cause i was just swept along by the current! i tried to swim against it but to no avail!. Then the second time, we were paddling in real shallow water when there was a sudden jerk! i fell of the boat and landed on HARD SOLID ROCK. OUCH! damm damm pain lah! I just lay there and stoned, cause i din want to get up!.
Then later that night we had a bonding session. Here is where we realised OAC is a cult! The whole group of them said stuf like " OAC is the center of my life." and " My life is OAC". IM sure they would marry OAC if they had a chance!
The second day we went to do CIP. We were like cleaning the houses and building cupboards, and stuff for them. real touching experience as these pple are really poor! their houses are so so dilapitated and flimsy im sure if like i farted it would collapse!
The last day we went to a hot spring. ouch. Burnt myself. Im seriuosly a sucker for dares. We were at this damm hot pool when Mr tan, Rachel and shuonan dipped their head into the poool. No one else dared. Then rachel tapped my shoulder and like" cephas go lah!" then the coward in me became a foolish retard and i plunged into the pool. OUCH.
YAY im back in singapore now.

the terry fox run
Went jogging in the afternoon today. Ran to Lakeside MRT and back.
It has been a long time since i had run. My body couldn't take it. Really. Having just recovered from my life threatening case of a runny rose, what i had attempted was in my mother's words "siao ah!"
When i had turned back, my body was already shutting down. My muscles( or rather the lack of them) were sore, and i experienced something i never thought i would feel.
STOMACH CRAMPS
They are the worst thing that can ever happen to anyone. i ran for like 100m and stopped, clutching my side. I think i took double the time to get back compared to the time i took to get there. whatever.
So girls, i totally understand why you all get pms. ouch. its a sucky feeling to have lah. grrr. i need pink panadol. LOL
haha anyway i bought my darling phone today!

runaway
Yesterday was a special day for you, me and all Singaporeans.
Yesterday morning when you and me woke up we could almost feel the buzz in the air. Like some contagious energy, it lifted us into high spirits.
It was the start of the WEEKEND!
It was also polling day of Singapore.
Everywhere you turned we could see the various election posters of our beloved ministers, smiling at us, mentally willing us to vote for them.
Hilarious really.
As my house was located in Ayer-Rajah Grc, It was a walkover by mr.Tharman Shaguratnam ( i think thats how it is spelt).
But nevermind, disappointing as it is not to experience a real election, i hope next time when im 21 i can vote!
Anyway, the debate of politics have made me convinced that i am never ever cut out for work in this sector.
Its a real turnoff when you see the opposition resorting to bitching, name-calling tactics to gain popularity.
Remember in primary school? When you didn't like this guy, you would try to niao him in front of everyone. The guy would then tell the teacher and then boy oh boy you are in trouble!
Come back to politics. The opposition calls pap names, accusing them of some stuff.
The similarities are remarkable.
I read in an old article that the former president of singapore Mr. Devan Nair once accused Lee Kuan yew of resorting to the law to remove his opponents. He would sue his opponents into bankruptcy, making them inieligible for elections. In response to his comments, Mr lee sued him for defamation.
HAHA.
I think when im 21, im gonna drop a vote for the opposition.

curry wok
curry wok yesterday was a curry filled day. The indian prata shop was having its last day. So my class all chiong that store during. haha suet was quite sad i guess, no more onion prata. haha. then samuel ate roti prata for the first time in his life i think. damm funny. he was like " im gonna whack myself later" haha. then this was where the horror part happens. someone that son of a ___ scumming, conniving, dastardly, no good loafer spilt curry on me! then got this stain all over the back of my shirt. like wad the f***! haha i was damm angry lah!then i asked samuel help me wipe the stain off. as many people deemed it to be beyon the abyss of hope, i went to change into my pe-shirt. BUT MY SHIRT WAS SMELLY!!! cause earlier in the day had napfa 2.4. i ran like 9:50 i think. not sure leh. but i pespired in my shirt(obviously) and hence it was smelly! as they say, beggars cant be choosers, so i had to endure the smell of the shirt for the rest of the day. haha then after that went curry wok to eat. YUM! ate untill cannot walk that kind. haha. anyway here's an update on recent things that happened.
1. napfa got silver cause of standing broad jump. FUCK. got a for everything else lahhhhh. super angry i wanted to kill some puppies or something. i missed C by like 4 cm? ah! even pullups i did 10 lah.
2. Hengjie. Ok she's this councillor in my class that ran for council president. yeah against 3 other people from apollo, she's the only athenian. the results were announced on thursday i think. Then the outgoing president's voice was on the PA and he said" the president for the 33rd student council is Sharmaine oh." you could feel the adrenaline and excitement of the class simply DEFLATE, like some saggy water balloon. What an anti climax. Then he continued" the vice president is Tann Chern WEi" the saggy balloon became a burst balloon. ouch. sigh.. but i guess the better candidates won. hengjie (in my opinion) was too nervous during the question and answers giving safe answers like " i wish to connect the school administration to the student body." like wa the hell lah. every single council wannabe says that. i guess she failed to distinguish herself from the others then. Even chern wei with whom i was told was despised by the chinese high people made people take notice with the annoying but catchy" if it matters to you it matters to me"
3. soccer i really really miss playing soccer. i haven't touched a ball in like a few millenia. i think i cant even juggle or what le lah. my technique all died le. i really miss my scout friends. i miss the days we would play soccer for hours in the rain and after that hang our ying-t-shirt to dry on the goalpost after the rain and continue playing. then afterwards drip to jurong east to have dinner. those were the highlights of my scouting days definitely where everything was nice and simple. it didn't matter that we all couldn't play to save our grandmother's lives. we had fun (:
