tml going to do stock taking with esther and jass... hehe... all the way down to ang mo kio.. hehe... tired tired.. zZzzzzZZzzz....

just got home... highlight of the day: ma la huo guo @ bugis!!! really hot hot hot!! $10.. my stomach is still burning now... quite shiok but really cannot last long... too hot... my taste buds really getting less extreme... used to be able to take extremem hotness... but jus now... really felt a little unbearable... stomach burning... ass starting to burn after going to the toilet.. hahaa.. but still quite shiok.. hahaa... anyway.. i was there with my 12/00 frens.. xinwei, chengxi, joseph, desmond and shanyi were there... met des & shanyi on the way to the place.. very hard to find parking space.. in the end parked at bugis junction...

peiyi & zoeline joined us after dinner.. den we went to a cafe neardy.. forgot the name of the place... the coffee not bad lar... surroundings not bad... quite cosy... got durian milkshake... got ice cube coffee.. quite interesting lar.. but not cheap... $7-9 per drink... stayed there till quite late.. around 1130pm den leave... very long never see them liaozZ... last time we met up was dec last yr for xmas potluck... so fast 6 mths liaozZ.. very soon i'll be in NUS... for many of them.. they will be in their last yr or graduating liaozZ... so fast...

highlight of the day KTV @ Kbox.. hehe.. yesh KTV again... woke up early in the morning so i could send my mum to work den i can use the car for the rest of the day... yah... went to pick jass and esther at noon to go orchard... went to fill form for stack taking job this thursday... jass was lucky she was there.. so she got the job too... duhzZ... but that means got 1 more ppl pei me & esther on thurs.. after orchard i send jass and esther all the way to NTU to hand in their acceptance to NTU... haven been there in a while... but not bad lar.. din get lost...

drove down to parkway for KTV... waited for kelly to come... den we went for lunch at the hawker before singing... esther and kelly ate the wet wet char kuay tiao... but seems like it has deteriorated liaozZ... or maybe today the chef PMS... too much garlic... overwhelming garlic taste... not good any more...

we got the package from 2 to 7pm.. seems ultra long lar... but nvm... sing till very shiok... weijie came to join us almost an hr into the singing.. yupzZ.. the andy lau started singing and there goes his concert.. haha.. realised jass can actually sing very well... her voice suits landy's song very much.. very nice... and the way she sings really looks really effortless... really impressed... kelly's surprising too... 1. i'm surprised she sings chinese songs. 2. i'm surprised she has a high pitched voice... her voice suits selena quite well... but too bad there's lot's of chinese characters she cant read.. hahaa... super funny lar... she can sing halfway den suddenly "wat's that word?" yah.... overall had a great time singing... we kindda extended our stay at kbox by refusing to leave.. hehee... managed to squeeze more den an hr extra..

weijie went home after ktv... the remaining 4 of us went swensens for dinner... esther and me had baked rice, jass had pasta, kelly had mini burgers... i think the baked rice not bad... but abit too saltish... like baked rice i make myself more.. haha... dessert's more exciting... shared sizzling banana crumble with esther... not bad... but like too sweet liaozZ.. hehee... seems like my taste buds not as extreme as they used to be liaozZ... that's good... and i still think esther is not full.. hahaa... am i rite mei??

went back to tj to play vball today... quite shuang... hay asked me a qn... "what position am i training for in the alumni team"... well i told him i dunno... and that's really the truth... i dunno... i want to be the best spiker, best defender, best setter, best server... but but... that's just a dream... i seriously dunno wat position i shld fit into... well for now... i'm just training to get my basics, reaction time back... and also to sweat it out...

the gals came to play at around 12... i stayed back to join them also but i was really feeling tired... not really playing well... but i think most of them enjoyed themselves.... yah... fun is the most impt thing...

went for lunch with them... by then almost 3pm liaozZ... haha. super late lunch... esther and eileen had pig trotters.. quite tempted to have that also.. hhaa.. but in the end i ordered charsiew + roast duck... quite shuang.. very long never eat liaozZ....

rotting at home since den.... zZzzZzzz....

just now i said in the chatroom "i saw 100 hits at my BLOG for today"... i just realised i see wrongly... i saw 184 when it's only 104... hahahaa.... so only around 20 ppl lar... that's the normal number.. hehee.... so paiseh... but really thanks to the ppl who visit me here... i think i dun really know how to express myself when i speak... but here.. i type everythin i have in my mind... and ppl who care will read and learn abt me... THANKS PPL!!!

today!! todayis JB day... woke up around 9plus almost 10.. cos mum called to tell me she is at polyclinic... ask me if i want fish porridge... hahaa.. sounds a bit no link.. polyclinic-fish porridge... hahaa anyway.. i'm glad she finally went to visit the doctor... she's been coughing since she came back from hainan dao... that's like 3 weeks liaozZ!! she better get better, or else i'll drag her to a specialist... whahaa... kk.. so i had fish porridge for breakfast... rot awhile den went to bugis to meet fung and esther... they expecting to see kelly too.. but poor kelly couldnt come cos her mum's SO worried for her... yah.. so only left with the 3 of us...

we took the express bus to JB.. $2.40.. still remember the time when eileen only paid $1.20 cos the driver tot she primary sch kid!! OMG!! how blind can ppl get?? anyway.. today traffic quite good.. not too crowded.. reach city square in less den an hr... had lunch there... din really eat much cos ate porridge earlier and i wanna save my stomach for dinner... ate hotplate chicken w rice... ate the chicken din really touch the rice... fung paid.. hehe.. walked around at city square.. bought a pouch for my mp3player... S$9.. fake stussy one.. hahaa.. but nvm... can fit my player can liaozZ... we also ate this shaved ice... kindda like the taiwan one.. but not as good lar... not too bad though...

took a cab to holiday plaza... shopped around there for quite some time.. we bought 25 titles altogether... not bad... cant wait for them to come over... den we'll all go fung's place to watch... hahaa.. but sadly a lot of new shows still not out or not clear... sianzZ... spend quite some time at the comic shops too... esther and fung's heaven.. to me it's uncharted waters... we came across this shop that fung said sells comics, but now it sells posters.. very beautiful ones too... really very nice... they are collectibles... very well kepts and framed.. but they cost a bomb too... wish i had the money to buy one...

went to "da ma hua yuan", or taman sri tebrau in malay, for dinner... ate "jiao hua ji", oat prawn, vege, turtle soup, stew ferret and some shellfish called "gong gong" haha... ate till very shuang... dunno if esther was really full.. hahaa.. she looked like she could have more... hahaa.. anyway.. we went back to holiday plaza to buy some titbits to bring back to sg... den went to city square again.. apparently, fung's looking for some comic... i wun know and wun understand so i din ask... hahaa.. we went to eat satay after that... fung ordered from a diff stall from the usual.. the meat is fattier then the usual one.. although more tasty.. but i think the usual one still tastes better.. the meat more tender.. hahaa...

i took more den an hr to type my entry till here... why?? cos i was chatting in msn with the vball ppl... quite shuang... think i seldom say so much in the chat room... hahaa.. shall do that more often... anyway... ppl out there... to me, wanting will be known as fossil a.k.a. hua shi from now on, why?? cos i think she likes to stone, and not just stone.. i used to say weathering as the next stage of stoning.. but i think that's too outdated even more me.. hahaa.. so i chose fossilisation.. haha... so yah... wanting is a fossil a.k.a. hua shi k??!! hahaa....

just came back from ktv not long ago... highlight of the day is ktv... but better start at the beginning of the day which only started like 12 plus almost 1pm.. haha.. that's when dear called to ask me to go for lunch.. cos she and her boos came to a coffeeshop near my place for lunch, so i join them lar... ate sliced fish soup... the fish like no need money one... hahaa..

after lunch i went down to lawyer office to hand a cheque to the lawyer for my mum... owe them for some time liaozZ... the lawyer office very ulu... at the furniture mall at beach road there... walked very far in... irritating.... just for a cheque...

after den came home to rot... till about 6 plus den i finally took a jog on my treadmill.. haha... think too long never run on it... got a lot of funny sound... quite scary.. as if it's going to give way anytime... but heck lar... if give way den means time for a new one... hahaa.. or maybe time to go to the gym downstairs...

k... finally mum drove the car home and i can leave.. i went to bedok first.. to pick up my tao sar piah from penang.. asked alison to get it for me since she was going to penang... initially was still worried if she got the correct thing, cos she like dunno how it shld taste if it's nice... hahaa... but anyway.. it's nice... so THANKS SIS!!

now for the highlight... went to the partyworld at orchard... no diff from other partyworlds.. look almost the same... service the same.. taiwan still puts them to shame... anyway.. that's beside the point... the point is dear and i get to listen to my fren's singing.. this tj classmate of mine, puey yee has wonderful vocals.. i think all of us who has been to the ktv her before would agree with me... she is simply fantastic... whenever she sings, it's as if we were at a live concert.. and mine u, not just any concert... it's a world class act... as for my singing.. though i can reach some high notes but mine voice is boring and simple.. hahaa.. while hers... WOAH!!! idol!! hahaaa... some record company better sign her up fast... dun let this talent go to waste... hahaaa... dun think i'll be able to sleep without putting this down...

have been rotting at home the whole day... couldnt get myself onto my treadmill... hahaa... only refrained myself from eating.. hahaa... not a bad job i would say.. hahaa... but still a long way to my goal... somemore thurs going jb to makan... hmmm think will fast during the day before going jb... hahaa... not sur eif i can drive there... gotta convince my mum... tml den ask.... dun wanna give her time to change her mind...

just now cooked dinner... with my sis... whipped up quite a spread... quite impressed with myself.. hahaa.. but for those who have experienced my cooking.. it's always a spread.. hahaa...

i think i finally know how my hermit crab died... it was murdered!!! by another hermit crab!!! yesterday i put the empty shell back in the tank... and the murderer tookover the shell!! dumb crab... fight over shells of the same size... haizZ... hope this doesnt happen anymore cos the other 2 crabs still very small dun think they will rouse the murderer's interest... sobzZz...

din buy bowling ball yet... marina got no shop... so other time den go see see look look... went grandma house for dinner... food okay lor...

when i got home i realised one of my hermit crab DIED!!! it was still alive when i left home in the afternoon.. seriously dunno how it died... my sis pulled the crab out of it's shell.. it look kindda disgusting... so yah.. now i only have 3 crabs left.. sobzZ... so much for them being able to last 15 to 30 yrs....

just got home...went tj for vball in the morning... guys alumni training.. first training with only alumni... i asked 2 of my secondary school frens along.. since they know almost all of us in tj... think it's rather hard to control the crowd.. they they are no longer students... so cannot expect them to be guai kia... some will auto... some dilly dally, totally wasting time... today played okay.. played as setter... made a few good plays... but overall i still very lazy to move.. not like last time liddat... must continue to lose weight.. dunno if i lost any in the first place.. cos still eating as usual... gotta go buy a weighing machine... nian han came for today's training... he is totally out of touch... he is now a PC at 3rd guards with means marcus is one of his men... hahaa.. he's now super fit... army has done a lot for him... and he is definitely taller den when he left...

joined nianhan, andre and yishan for lunch at katong.. meiyuan restaurant, selling roasted meat and chicken rice.. always pass by there seeing the crowd.. today finally i'm among the crowded..the food not bad.. rather sinful, quite a lot of fatty meat.. but that's wat makes it nice.. hahaaa... i guess there goes my exercise for the day...

going to meet yanli soon.. gonna go see if there's a suitable bowling ball for me.. hehee... yeah... finally i can get my own bowling ball.. hahaa..

went back to tj for vball in the morning.. 4 new gals came today... 2 from NAS 2 fm Pasir Ris... the 2 from NAS quite good... and the left-hander from PRS also not bad.. she came on wednesday also.. but she wasnt as good as today... i think i have a problem bringing up team spirit... i see the way hay and eileen bring up the team while they are in the game.. while i kindda talk to myself... not encouraging enuff.. well i'm still learning... guess it's not in my nature to be the ultra noisy one.. unless i very high... wanting seems weird today... or rather i think she seems weird since last training... exam stress getting on her?? well.. maybe she was just traumatised by that hornet.... eileen came for training today.. good to see her.. she is still powerful... her short hair very stylo... look like miss ang.. seems like miss ang is her idol.. haha.. cannot blame.. miss ang really very stylo.. somebody please get lihui to study!!!

drove to tj.. drove around today.. kindda tired... came home to rest awhile before going to pick yanli and send my sis to plaza sing for guitar lessons... saw wang jian fu and fiona xie there.. they filming the "hao she er ren zu" quite lame... apple hung was there too she she quite short.. hahaa.. wang jian fu abt my height.. hahaa..

ate at this japanese restaurant at PS... shld be a co-company of fiesta.. the food quite normal.. not fantastic.. but good enough for me and yanli.. and most imptly.. mum's paying.. haha...

went back to tj for training today.. so long never play ball liaozZ.. pretty sucky... but it was great to see everyone... most of us still having a little post-taiwan blues... hehee... think some of them saw the scandalous pic of choonfu and isa... if they cannot take it... I APOLOGISE... but just one word from anyone and i'll take off the pic immediately... k.. back to training... had a lot of fun playing... trials for the sec 4s... not outstanding... but i see a few prospects lar... very happy to see all of them also... esp the yr 2s... vos this shld be one of the few times they will be back for vball... studies up and coming...

went to cut hair at pointers after vball... fell asleep while cutting.. luckily my hair still looks okay... slightly shorter on the sides cos the were irritating my ears...

did a bit of running in school... cannot make it... but it's a start... continue to exercise tml...

it's been a few days since i'm back.. doing nothing much at home.. but i've not been eating much (compared to my usual standards lar)... my aim is to lose at least 10kgs before NUS starts... yah that will be my aim... hahaa... anyway for pple who dun know yet... i've up all my photos at my fotopic website... can follow my link on the lefthand side to the pics... happy viewing... going back to tj tml... fung say got some trials.. dunno trial guys or gals... but will be back lar...

had been back for a day liaozZ... and now i'm finally in front of my comp... typing my blog while i arrange my pics... i have lot of photos to arrange... it's a good thing... hehee... the trip had been fun... spent my bday there... unforgetable experience they have given me.. taiwanese have given me a very good impression... i've met many frenly pple and their service attitude has really put us to shame...

<29/05>
first day, we reached in the early afternoon... waited a long long time for our bus to arrive... we hung around at the airport for almost 2 hours before the pink "pin guan" bus came... we were quite happy with the bus.. it was huge and spacious... although it wasnt really new but it was good enough i guess... i din hear anyone complain.. hahaa.. first nite we went to a nite market near NTU (National Taiwan Uni)... din buy anything that nite... just walk walk see see... some of them had their first taste of local food.. like chou dou fu... i warn you, it's nice... nothing much for the first day... went back to the hostel quite early den started playing games... played mahjong initially with shengli, choonfu and ben... bad idea.. lost money... not that enjoyable also... after that played hay's version of heart-attack.. it's very fun... wanted to join them while i was still playing mahjong cos it really looked fun... realised my was reaction was ultra slow cos i always lost... played thru the nite cos next morning going to hualien... gonna take 8hrs of bus...

<30/05>
the journey was long and torturous... my head was spinning most of the time... but thanks to my "wu hua guo" i managed to survive and was able to enjoy the beautiful scenary along the way... hualien is literally cool... and i din bring a single warm clothe at all... dinner there was at a local stall... not too hygenic but i think not many of us bother about that... bought rice wine to try... rather disappointing... hahaa... played mahjong at nite again... although i won... i still find it boring... luckily no more for the next few days... also becos of mahjong i missed the nite walk that some of them went on... guess i miss a lot of fun on that one...

<31/05>
after one night at the hostel at hualien, we took another 8 hrs ride back to taipei... but this time we made a detour to "ye liu" where we visited the legendary rocks... i was there before... so i was a partial guide to them... that nite was more exciting... went to "hua xi" street.. haven been there before... it feels kindda like hongkong.. a lot of shops selling tonic soups and providing foot massages... fung, kaiyang and me ate an interesting snake tonic... it consists of snake soup, glass each of snake blood, snake bile and snake poison... not that bad.. they all just taste like tonic wine that's all... nothing too scary... but really felt hot after the "cuisine"... walked around the area and we found HERMIT CRABS... i bought 4... pretty active... hahaa. and they are now alive and kicking in front of my tv... whahaaa... my sis and yanli are pretty excited about them.. hahaa... it was ms ang's bday and we could only hastily get a tub of ice-cream as present for her... but i think she's happy with the surprise... hahaa... made her drink quite a lot of jim bean also.. hahaa... the yr 2 gals came to our room that nite... din really know why... guess they din want to be on the 4th floor alone... so i shared bed with bryan... haha and i survived his snores... ahhaa

<01/06>
woke up rather early cos i was freezing... esp after i bathed... so i went to the lobby area there where there's no aircon... we went to "wu fen pu" that morning, not the place for me.. i'm really not there to buy clothes... so went with fung to "guang hua shang chang" taiwan's version of sim lim sq... the stuff there really cheap... so i bought my mp3 player there... 1 GB with almost every function u can think of for only S$200... yah.. fung bought more stuff there... he really is go there to pack himself with electronics one... went to Taipei Main Station to look at train schedules cos we may be taking it to go somewhere further... but in the end din materialise cos dunno where to go... hahaa.. den it was nite liaozZ... off to shilin we went... and here comes my super big fried chicken... hahaa... bought 2 singles and 2 tshirts there.. quite cheap so still ok... ate a lot of stuff... after awhile i was walking alone liaozZ... den i saw jass, she told me she couldnt find ZZ... den came rach and alison saying the same thing... so we walked around looking for her... den saw hay... he got into the search too... everyone's anxious abt losing her... somehow i was still relax.. still stight-seeing.. not that i'm not worried she may look a little naive... but i believe she's better that how she looks... definitely smart enuff to take care of herself... i stopped to buy some fruits while the others continue the search... after buying the fruits i tried to ctach up with the search party and i saw ZZ at the next bend... hahaa.. wat a joke... while they were looking so high and low... she just appeared in front of me after i bought some fruits... hahaa.. i said there was nothing to worry rite?? hahaaa... felt EARTHQUAKE close to midnite... scary feeling... first u get a dizzy feeling... den things starting becoming wavy, including the walls, bed and doors... unlike wat we always see in movies where things go jerky... scary!! guess i was quite calm... when we evacuated to the lobby... it seems like we are the only ones who evacuated... but i really discourage their indifference... if something worst was to come... will they be able to leave in time? i believe we could be the only one in safe grounds...

<02/06>
this morning we took the MRT all the way to e end station at "Dan Shui" it's a port... we went to the famous "yu ren ma tou" interesting place... nice scenary.. took a lot photos there... there was this bunch of kindergarten kids who turned up... and the yr 1s just went gaga over them.. haa.. kids going crazy over kids.. hahaa.. wat a sight.. hahaa... after that went to "dan shui lao jie" to buy "tie dan" bought a lot of it... hahaa... also ate the local speciality "ah gei"... on the way back on the MRT.. there was this kid.. very active.. very cute.. and he's simply crazy abt choonfu.. hahaa.. he even chose choonfu over this parents... hahaa.. went to KTV... kindda lost at first cos din know how it works over there... but after a while got used to it liaozZ.. sang a lot of songs.. cos i kept hogging onto the mike.. hahaa... think the service there is very good... much better den in singapore... almost the same price as in singapore... yah.. sang till 11plus before going back to the hostel... i got into a cosy position and i fell sleep quite early...

<03/06>
it's my bday... but i wasnt expecting anything much except some handshakes and greetings cos i was hoping at least some ppl remembered... it was a free and easy day... so we went to bookshop area near "xing guang san yue"... but i wasnt interested in books so i walked to "ximenting" from there... ron and shengli followed me... so we walked around.. but the 2 of them felt sick and tired soon and went back to the hostel themselves first... while i waited for the rest to come to ximenting.. brought jass to go buy posters while the rest continued shopping... me and jass went to see see look look at the arcade and we saw a super accurate hoop shooter... and we took a vid of him strutting his skills.. super zai... we went to a cafe that has swinging chairs for a bite... nice place... order some cakes and they sang birthday song for me... i was happy... really touched... as the day creeps away i tot i would have spent my bday with on some greetings... shopping has not ended.. went back to NTU nite market there... to shop again... hay finally bought the gifts he wanna get... while i got a shoe bag... alison's the cute one, she wanted to buy a pants but she din have enough money so she called me to help her.. hahaa.. super funny... but i was glad she called me for help... she's always a sister to me... we went back to the hostel after that... i bought noodles from 7eleven for supper... and was packing my stuff on my bed when everyone walked in with a birthday cake... i was super touched... it's been years since i had pple celebrate my bday with me... hay got me 2 vball books... i like them very much cos there's a lot of pictures.. hahaa... i just wanna say thanks to everyone for giving me this memory... for making my bday more den ordinary...

<04/06>
last day... wanted to take a lot of photos with everyone... but somehow it din materialise also... really wanted to take photo with everyone but it seems like not many of them were interested... yah.... that's the end of the trip... a week just past liddat... like quite sad... but i had fun...

kindda had a handover this morning... headache and a bit of diarrhea... felt better after some panadol... slept till 4 plus till dear came... we went shopping together.. she bought a pair of working pants and shoes.. me just bought some stuff for taiwan... changed S$425 for 8000NT... hope it will be enough... hehee...

met up with kaiyu, tenghui, vince and weiting for dinner... ate at V8 at bugis junction... food was not bad but my stomach was still not feeling too good... but the food was not bad.. decided to go bowling... but wasted some time waiting for silie to come down from pasir panjang... so we went to eat dessert while waiting for him... ate at monster ice.. a shop near Sim Lim that sells sherbets.. nice nice...

bowling was not bad... played 2 games... 2nd game was my highlight... started off with a turkey... den a spare.. but downhill from den on.. but i still managed a 165 score.. that's like the highest since secondary school.. the only time i got higher was my record 178... hahaa... kindda lousy.. but i think i was tired lar... if not i would have continued to play again...

went geylang serai to eat roti prata after bowling... met huimin there again... we met her there some time back too went we were there for supper... hahaa.. so "qiao" hahaa... there were some gossips about her and her boyfriend... haha..

came home after that.. and now i gotta go PACK!!!!!!!!!!

just got back home only... went out with my BOC mates just now... went pub with them at serangoon garden... had some jim bean initially but i turn to coke very soon cos i was driving... play alot of drinking games very fun.. very high.. hahaa.. think i'll really miss those days... BOC is very family-like... brother and sisters... my reservist is over for now... next one shld be atleast 5 yrs later... yah... just had a great time for the past week... lots of fun and excitment in the exercise... relearnt lots of stuff... all in all, it has been a good week...

yesterday i received a letter from MOE... my application for MOE teaching award was turned down... sobzZ... but i kindda expected it lar... i seldom make it thru interviews... find it hard to sell myself... even though i know that's the way to do things... well.... guess i'll just be an average student afterall...

tml's my last day of reservist liaozZ.. think the next time i'll be back will be at least 4 yrs later... going to defer my ICTs for uni... yah.. the past few days have been exciting, stressful, tiring, and now i'm having a splitting headache... aarrgghhh...

went to toa payoh during lunchtime to watch tj's badminton finals... but the guys and gals teams got into the finals... i tot at least one of them would have won... but both lost... i was there to watch the whole game.. i could only stay till the 2nd game.. din see lisi play... hope she's alrite...

going to taiwan on sunday... hahaa... counting down...

exercise has begun.. a rather slow start to the exercise.. nothing much happening... some cock-ups here and there as usual... felt kindda lost at first... cos very long never do operations liaozZ.. but after awhile quite okay liaozZ... got the hang of things happening... so quite relax... got long breaks in between... played winning eleven... hadnt played that game in years... and i think i'm not bad... quite lucky and scored quite a few goals.. hahaa.. and the newbie(me!!) won.. hahaa.. oh yah... drove to camp today.. quite shiok to be driving in... felt a sense of pride... although it's my mum's car, still feel shiok.. haha..will be driving the rest of the week till mum comes back next mon... i'll be leaving for taiwan on sunday morning... i'll be driving to airport too.. hehee.. shiok ar!!

tml will be 2nd day of exercise... believe the pace will pick up and things will be happening faster... dunno can cope or not... hope can... today's the birthday of one of my old frens... and she stills remembers me.. hahaa.. so happy... i'm the kind who will msg my fren's happy birthday once a year just to remind them i'm still alive... hahaa.. the most disappointing ans will be "who are u?" so sad rite?? but lucky i only kena it once only... but once i replied with my name they know who i am... so i'm still happy.. hehee...

just now went to watch starwars 3 with yanli.. had to recap wat happened in the earlier episodes with her.. so she wun be lost during the show.. she's not exactly a starwars fan u see?? hehee yah... actually this episode may be the most anticipated but it is also the most expected episode... why?? cos we know wat happen before and wat will happen next... is it really that hard to guess wat happens in between?? no rite?? actually i was there more for the action lar.. hahaa.. somemore now is off-peak price... not bad lar.. 3 *** lar... hahaa

there will be briefing in tj tml regarding the taiwan trip... dunno if i can make it there in time or not... depends wat time the exercise end tml... hehee... looking forward to the food in taiwan... haha... left out half shilin market the other time.. this time must make sure we cover everything...

sent mum off to hainan island... drove uncle's car back home... manual car.. but very nice to drive... cos seasoned liaozZ... so not much of a problem... rot at home most of the day... din do much.. basically boroing day...

din blog for a few days.. the past few days quite boring... go to base.. rot the whole day... den go home rot... till next day den the cycle repeats again... yah... next week exercise will begin.. so will be more busy... i doing an active personnel job.. cos they feel i still current... so well.. gonna be exciting... hahaa.. always alot of things happen... fun lar... kindda missed it anyway...

mum and sis are going hainan tml... i'm suppose to go too.. but too bad got reservist... cannot go... really quite disappointed i couldnt go... i am the only grandson that speaks hainanese and i couldnt go... arrrggghhh... but nvm.. next weekend going taiwan after my reservist... just paid fung $500++ just now... actually think it's quite cheap.. although it's china airlines... but i always believe... if u suay.. no matter wat airlines u take it wouldnt matter...

yah... next week i get to drive everyday.. hehee.. cos the car's with me.. hahaa... YEAH!!!

long day at base... thou not doing much... but that precisely makes time seem even longer... yah... quite boring... hahaa... a lot of reservist with me... first time see so many pple.. damn funny... when out for lunch till almost 3pm.. super relak... haha... wonder when i'll get my pay... now taiwan postpone to 29th may... dunno got enough money to spend or not... mummy's going hainan island on sunday.. so i'll be at home alone next week... hmmm... boring... dunno got car to drive or not also...

coaching cse has ended... the exam's over... and i PASSED!!! not too well though... if my result wasnt round up i would have failed... yah.. quite heng i guess... hmmm... i'm just glad i din waste my money... yeah!!!!

first day back at PLAB... lots of memories.. the system still as screwed as ever.. but now everyone has a flat-screen monitor.. hahaa.. but seems to be giving new problems.. hahaa... nothing much done.. basically go back see see look look.. realised nothing much has changed and i was away for that long.. hahaa.. most pple who saw me was like.. "wah.. why so fast come back already??" best of all... i realise i still among the youngest ones around in the squadron.. and i'm already NSmen... wat a joke.. hahaa..

yah tml's the exam.... jiayou jiayou jiayou...

coaching cse is coming to a close... wednesday's judgement day.. the final exams... it's not easy to pass... need to get 70% in the theory and 80% in the practical to pass... yah... hope i dun screw up... den tml will be reporting back to PLAB liaozZ.. so fast reservist liaozZ.. whahhaaaa..... ANY SWEAT?? NO SWEAT!! Wello... wello.. wello.... :P

spent the weekend in JB with dear... it was a nice weekend... supposed to celebrate our anniversary there lar... but din really din much of a celebration... but we did have a good time there... went shopping.. bought a few things here and there... ate alot of nice food... and cheap too... yah... really enjoyed ourselves... yah.. guess the best part shld be staying in Pan Pacific.. the room was HUGE.. the TOILET was HUGE-ER!! whahaaa... sadly it was only one night... no money to stay too long anyway... we order room service for supper too.. really nice.. hahaa... haven ordered room service for so so long.. i think room service is really something we must enjoy whenever we stay in a hotel... just makes everything seem so much nicer... hehee...

i now rotting in front of my comp... mum took laptop to work... so i using comp... yah... din noe wat to do today... yesterday was my 5th anniversary with yanli... but it wasnt all that exciting... she's working in the day.. so me rot... den gave tuition... she had pilates after work... so i could only meet her ofter that.. we meet at around 930pm... to go for dinner at toa payoh.. we went to this kuay chap that we like very much.. cheap and nice.. yah.. that was pretty much it liaozZ... dinner was nice lar... but dun think that's enough for a day liddat lor.. went to my house to watch tv for awhile.. den she wants to go home liaozZ... while sending her home.. i just felt sad... just felt the day shld just end liddat... so i suggested to go watch movie... but when we reached cineleisure.. the last show already started and they were already cleaning up... it was only 1230.. i just felt so depressed.... i din know wat to do from den on.... we rot in the car for a long time den finally decided to send her home... felt sad all the way... even though she offered to spend the nite with me... i was really tempted to bring her home immediately, but i knew she would not get a good nite's sleep and would wake up the next day feeling tired... and i really hate to see her feeling tired... when she's tired i just feel so neglected... so alone... yah.. so she went home.. i waited at the carpark for awhile... hoping that she would come back down... but i drove home.. and i still felt sad... i know that she isnt doing anything wrong... maybe i'm just asking for too much...

just now i visited quite a fwe pple's blog... think some of them are actually feeling lost now... why?? cos the vball season is over... while all of them love to p lay vball the passing of the season means no more trainings... time to start studying... for the yr twos... it's bye bye tj.. even if they go for trainings it's unlikely they will get to play for tj again... kindda like withdrawal symptom... haha... they will all get out of it... sad undoubtedly.. but yah.. i believe all of them have grown up a little....

wat a day at toa payoh stadium... it's not tj's day though... yah... they lost 0-3 to ny... it's quite a one-sided affair.... tj was just no match for ny's sheer power... they seemed like the most powerful team ever assembled in ny's history... yah... while tj's blocking was suppose to be their strength but today ny's spikes were just simply out of their reach... yah... basically a one sided affair... not too interesting... whereas the gals finals turn out to be the highlight of this afternoon... jj has won ny against all odds... i believe no one would dare say jj did not deserve to win... they won the game with incredible defending and clever attacks... they have truely won as a team... there's not star player... everyone was a key player... and their cheerleaders... total respect for them... i've never seen a cheerleading crowd more organised as spirited as them.... it's impossible to describe... pple who were there would definitely understand wat i was saying...

went to eat jap food after the games... fung paid i guess... cos i left early.. hahaa... food was cheap lar... nothing much... wonder where they went after that... too bad i gotta attend coaching lesson... today's lesson's on spiking... we were taught wat to pay attention to when we teach ppl how to spike.... impt thing is that we know wat are the points to note... yah... i still need more practise in tossing of balls for the spiker... rather inconsistent...

today was supposed to be a slacking day... only coaching cse at night... but it was just so tiring... feel so drained now... cos gotta try all the different drills... tired tired tired.....

yesterday was a whole day of vball in tj... was there since 3 pluss till almost 8pm.... played set after set... game after game... but i think i'm just lagging behind everyone physically... really seems slow on the court no matter wat i do... maybe it's time to leave the court... but i still yearn for the chance to play in a competition.. not as a reserve but a main player... but that seems to be getting further and further... anyway.. i was really tired after training... by the time i got home... i could only lie on the bed and sleep...

today.. woke up really early... went to guan yin temple to pray with mum... well... i'm still spectical about the way she prays... really abit anyhow one... i think all she's looking for is some place where she could express her wishes and she does really care about the rites... as long as she can say wat she want to whoever wanna listen can liaozZ... hahaa...

today's mummy's day... hahaa.. went to changi village that hotel for buffet lunch... the food there not bad... but variety quite limited... maybe that's why the quality quite good... and their scallops like free one.. really alot... whahaa... eat till very fulll... now still bloated....

only just got home.... very tired... recap on yesterday... i went to play badminton in the afternoon at Kembagan CC... wah!! that CC really looks nice... got 7-11 and a cafe.. with nice cosy cushion seats... shiok... den got alot of activities going on... den upstairs got cooking lar.. singing lessons lar... den the gym has a tv to almost every treadmill and stationary bike... shiok rite?? that's a CC in a rich ppl's district.. everything just seems nicer den usual...

went back to tj after badminton... for training... quite surprised to see miss teo there.. yah.. she's there to help fung pick out the teams problem and improve as much as possible... yah.. and she did that quite successfully in the sense she really picked out a lot of problems... hahaa... she looks a little dumbfounded... yah... i left early cos i was really tired... so did really hear wat she said to them... guess shld help more or less lar.. haha

i woke up today with my whole body aching... yah... still aching now... went for MOE interview... only today den i know they were only considering me for the MOE teaching award... not the scholarship... hahaa... but nvm.. as long as they pay my school fees i happy liaozZ...interview by principal of NYJC and TKGS... and another MOE official... a bunch of scary women... they keep asking me to change to a degree with pure teaching subjects.. that means like study maths of science... i dunno why but i really against that idea... but now i'm glad i did that... studying pure will be boring more me i guess... and it will be harder to convince students to like a subject if u only study the academic aspect of it.. whereas engineering is the actual application of the subject... hahaa... think i haven screwed it up as bad as the USP one... we shall see...

coaching lessons are also tiring... today's service and tossing of balls.... actually very hard... i just cant to serve properly there... and my tossing of balls like super inaccurate and inconsistent.... need to have more practice... shall do it tml in tj...

nitezZ....

had coaching training today... all the way at presbyterian high school.. i think i like that school... it looks nice den any school i've been too... but i dunno abt the ppl there... anyway.. i was late hahaa... step into the class halfway thru the lesson... they were into the theories of coaching... firstly... what is volleyball? is a sport some rich american came up with in the late 1800s... yah.. den it went to canada.. den to japan 1908.... den to china in 1910... yah stuff liddat... and it seems volleyball used to be played with 10 pple.. and the ball was actually the inner lining of a basketball... makes it sounds a bit 2nd class rite?? yah...

den it comes to being a coach... wat is a coach? why be a coach? well... a coach is a teacher... and it's not just about the skills... it's a about the mental development, the physical development and the teamwork... yah... suddenly it seems like a lot of work... gotta read up a lot on the game, the psychology, the biomechanics... that's pretty much the theory part...

practical seems abit like a training session... how to organise a training... how shld training develop... yah stuff liddat... but i think i was kindda left out.. cos i din know anyone there... perhaps there was an intro session that i missed... but... yah... there were 3 grps of ppl... teachers, saf regs, players... i din know any of the players... and they keep to their clique... it was kindda hard for me to to mix also... that the most sianzZ part... hope friday will be better...

i just woke up a while ago and i'm going to go back to sleep very soon after i finish this blog.. i was really tired today... din sleep last nite was on the computer the whole time... playing game... then in the morning jio lisi go Klunch... very cheap only $5 sang from 11 to 2pm 2 of us only... cos no one else wanna go.... sing until seh... no more voice... but i still think it's quite worth it lot.. yah... tiring part 1... now...

after ktv.. i sent lisi home... den went to meet kaiyu & tenghui at bedok interchange.. cos we going to buy stuff for matt's stewardess fren to bring some stuff over for him.. we bought chicken rice paste... laksa paste... den many others.... den best of all... we bought a huge packet of fresh chillis... garlic & ginger... and a packet of chilli padi.... den off we went to kaiyu's house to make chilli... and i must confess... it's really really hot.... but still tastes good.. whahaa... another new dish on my menu... homemade hainanese chilli...

after that i sent tenghui home den i went to grandma's place for dinner... it's quite adangerous drive home.. cos i was getting sleepy... almost fell asleep at the junction... so in the end i wind down the windows and kept awake with the wind in my face... always works... suppose to have tuition one... but that jiaqin say wed & fri instead... pissed... but too tired to argue... so let it go.... den realise tml got coaching cse....

tired... tired tired..............................

went back to tj today for vball.. it has been awhile since i went back for training... quite a few old boys came back too... our main purpose was to play match with the current team... yah all was well until the 4th set when ron made a super ridiculous service error... we got the service over... but zai was so pissed he kicked the ball into the ceiling... one of the boards fell... well i think the error was ridiculous but the reaction to it was even more ridiculous.... worst still was while i was trying to tell zai that this was a small thing no need to flare... rubin was there claiming this is not a small thing.. it's big... super pissed with rubin... wat the hell does he want?? go lar go give the kids a piece of ur mind... wat for??? i got so pissed i lost control... i flared up.. starting shouting at him... think i scared quite a few ppl then... yah... ultimately i dun think it's up to him to react the way he did... say watever he wants or threatened to not come down for training anymore... haizZ... wat the hell....

remember when i said "the tj gals have a good chance of getting into the placings for Adiv this year and the guys no much chance... really have to pray, if dun have religion it's time to get one"?? yah... the gals were knocked out in the first round... cos they cracked... while the guys have a very very powerful religion called LADY LUCK... and she's been smiling very brightly on them since the start of the competitions... super easy groupings all the way... and they really peaked their performance today.... today's a very exciting day at CCAB... tj guys are into the finals... they have just beaten aj 3-2... a super super close affair... neck and neck all the way.... i just have to say they are just mentally very strong... that's wat won the game... it's not superior skills... maybe lucky play a few parts here and there... rather comical sometimes... those who were there would know... those who werent there, u missed possibly the most exciting match of the season... ridiculous refereeing thou... hahaa... total comedy... i'm totally impressed with their attitude today... they got back whenever they trailed and they just kept on fighting... but somehow i believe somewhere in them they are doing this for the gals too... they wanna win it for them too... yah... but yah.. super impressed.... nothing much to say... i guess many of the gals will be thinking if only they were thru to the finals too... well... if they had the spirit the guys had today... the championship would be theirs to take... saw eunice today... she was really excited when tj won... she'll always be a part of us... and her knees... wat's all those plaster for?? hahahaa... k lar... guess now we'll just have to stay tuned for the finals.. 11th May, Toa Payoh Stadium...... still dunno wat time yet...

today's shld be one of the funnest day recently... eileen, lisi, lihui and weifeng came my house to watch dvd... watched freaky friday... very funny... think weifeng's very funny too... den the other 3 always like bully her... haha... den i just sit there watch.. like watching 2 comedies going on... whahaa... before coming to my house we all met downstairs to eat dim sum while waiting for lihui.. she was slow... hahaa... after that somemore ordered canadian pizza to eat while watcing movie... these gals eat so much wun go fat one... metabolism rate damn high... not like me... hahaa... yah... order extra large hawaiian and meat lovers... managed to finish everything somemore... after the show i sent all of them home...

but that's not the end of the day... i met up with dear... den we went chinatown to meet her frens at kster... den sing for 2 hrs... hahaa... very long never go ktv liaozZ.. so quite shuang.. and somemore like quite cheap leh... think they got voucher or something... not even $20... and her frens started singing form 7pm... we left at 1230am... cheap rite?? but the system there not really wonderful lar.... screen sometimes can hang one... hahaaa...

i have MIA'd for sometime liaozZ... have been hermitising myself... it's a new word i came up with... hermitising-cooping oneself at home.... haha... yah have been at home for almost a week... lying on my bed most of the time... sleeping as if i'm hibernating... i'm really quite good at it.. haven been to watch the guys match didnt really attract me to it leh... tomolo one den see... a real match... they haven been lucky since the start of the competition... let's see how they size up against real opponents tml...

esther's birthday today... went to find her for lunch... she asked her fren along... but dunno why like very awkward... din talk much... just eat eat den leave liaozZ... precisely not the lunch i was looking for.. but maybe too tired din wanna interact... yah... shld be ba... hope she had something fun on her birthday...

went to NUS for medical after lunch... rather bo liaozZ check up.. height weight pressure urine x-ray... yah.. stuff liddat... went excursion at sheares after the checkup... zai & rubin brought me around... and taught me a trick to wash clothes.. cheapskates but i'll do it too.. hahaa...

still havent got over the fact that the gals are out... was wondering how many of them went home to cry their hearts our under their blankets... well i didnt... tears were welling up though... but all i did was stare at the celling... still feel sad... though not too sure if i was sad for them or sad for myself...

today's dear's birthday... brought her to bongo burger... wondering where it is?? it's a burger joint at night safari... really nice burgers only 2nd to billy bombers... quite ex for a fast food... but it's nice... realised there is a ben&jerry outlet there too... for ice-cream lovers, u can get ben&jerry's at the zoo & night safari... or somewhere near u at a major supermarket, though not as many flavours as the outlet... dinner was great.. nice atmosphere.. a little dark... but nice.. oh yah.. din feel any mosquitoes... lot's of tourists at night safari...

went cineleisure for movie.. watched Spanglish... liked the humour... like the actress Paz Vegas... shes just SOOOOooo attractive.. dear says she's nice too.. hahaa.. bought dear a garfield cushion from cineleisure... for her to hug at her office... still owe her a Mp3-player... gonna get it when the stock comes in at Sim Lim Square... hehee...

tml's gonna be a busy day... firstly... it's esther's bday.. but i still have no idea wat to get her or wat to do for her yet.. haha... den i have to go to NUS for medical checkup.... den i have tuition in the evening... whahaaa...

there was only one purpose for today.. to go watch the A gers win against AJ... they have lost their last match to JJ and i was hoping they would see the light... understand that they no longer have anything to lose... they need to win AJ and win it big to have a CHANCE to get into the second round... i thought they shld have came out of the last game being stronger... being more confident, no more holding back... i somemore wentto tj before CCAB to watch them warm up... they look fine... seems hyped up for the game.. i was happy to see them... i told eileen i wanted to talk to all of them before going to CCAB cos i knew i wun have a chance once we are there.. it will be for the coaches to do their job liaozZ... but now i regret.. guess i shld have said something cos it seems they still dunno wat they are playing for today...

if we say they played poorly on friday, then today would have to be a total disaster... today's match really made them look amateur.. yah.. that's how bad they were today... it seemed to me fung also gave up hope half thru the 2nd set... mentally they are just too weak... skills wise they are in no way poorer that aj... they just lose it as the game started... lihui felt something was wrong starting form the 1st set... so did i as i sat outside looking at them play... sometimes i wonder is there anything i could do if i were on the coaching bench... i would really like to give them a good scolding on the spot... make them wake up... but will it really work?? or will they just breakdown further?

after the match fung, hay and i had a talk with them... i really did know wat to say at first cos i was still bewildered about their performance.. in my eyes they are a quality team... much better den the guys in almost every aspect... although the guys got the easier teams in their group i still expect the gals to be able to qualify... but i was wrong... i gave them a piece of my mind after fung and hay made their points... i guessed i was rather harsh... but i would have be harsher... if not for their teary eyes... guess they are still too young to understand the heartache those coaching staff feel... if we dun care we wun bother coming back so often... if we dun care we wun be there at the matches hoping to see them put up their best performance...

they were tearing even before i said anything... in fact i angry to see them cry... i feel they dun deserve to cry and did not even have the right to cry... i told there straight in their faces that their performance today was not just poor, it's horrifying... and they do not have the right to cry less eileen... cos she did not give up thru'out the competition... i saw her gave up today.. not in herself.. but the players around her... her spikers have totally lost their confidence and fighting spirit... from the 1st dropshot that i saw her made.. i knew she gave up on them.. and that was the end of the game.... she has invested all her confidence in all those in the court with her.. but she failed drastically in that deal... not an ounce of fighting spirit was apparent...

although i scolded them... i really felt a crinching feeling in my chest... my heart really ached... to see them being bowled out the competition liddat.. not even putting up a fight... it just made me feel damn sad... guess i'll be feeling more of these if i really become a coach...

in my 3 yrs in tj... we have always be underachieving... in my 1st yr... we were knocked out in the first round despite being champions the yr before... 2nd yr we only managed 3rd but not many of us had much to regret cos we put up a great fight along the way, kindda like a redemption for the mistake in the 1st year.. in my last yr... we shld have gotten 1st... but i wasnt really much in that team anyway... i was mainly a bench warmer... i was never a first team player maybe i just wasnt good enough... the main reason why i'm back in tj so often is because i missed those days... those days when we were all fighting for something... not for personal glory but just to put of a good fight no matter what kind of opponents we face... that's all i was looking for...

it's been a few days since i blogged.. somehow the com wasnt avail for me... friday was really a sad day i guess... i saw tj gals lost... lost to jj again... at the hands of the same 2 gals that put them out of the competitions last yr.... really i think they could have won if they just played the way the usually play with us.... they were nervous... they looked nervous and move nervously... they are basically rooted to the floor... and they din take the chances they have to kill off the opponents... but credit to jj.. their moral was high and had very few mistakes... now the gals have one last match left for the 1st round.. they have to win it.. and win it big in order to advance to the next round... they face aj... undoubtedly the strongest in their group.... they really need to show championship wining quality if they were to go on... they need to go all out on attack... need to be fearless... and they MUST have CONFIDENCE in themselves... jiayou ba... Impossible is not an option....

had a very sickening day at NUS today... it's a very lousy interview session for me... think i haven blanked out as badly as today before.... super disgusting... said so much but i dun think i made any sense... seriuosly jialat lar... if they let me into the program it only means they think i have lots to improve... hahaa...

din blog yesterday... cant remember why... yesterday went to watch A Div, the guys are playing their 2nd match while the gals are having their first... the guys played much better compared to monday but they were also up against a weaker opponent... they still need to minimise alot of mistakes that they are making... the gals were like i said, more steady... but something was lacking from them... the fighting spirit... it doesnt seem that they have the mentality/urge to win less eileen and isabella... i hope i can see some hunger from them in the next match.... they'll really need it....

today went back tj to help training... kindda mimic'd jj's way of playing... din really think i did a very good job... kindda off today... but i think they understood wat they have to look out for liaozZ lar... we shall see on friday... still think they got chance to get thru....

today's the first day of the a div competitions... reach CCAB only a while before the guys match.. saw the other 2 teams in their group play... not much of a match... it seems their opponents today, MJ was their only worthy opponents in the first round... seems like their prayers are working for them... they shld be able to cruise thru to the 2nd round... but by then they better show improvement in their steadiness... their performance today... some would it's kindda stage fright, some blame it on the ball... i say it's just a poor performance...

also saw a match between aj & jj the 2 other teams in our gals grp... they are strong... aj has a powerful lineup... jj is pretty much unchanged from... but they are getting more accurate at sending the balls to the empty spots... as for aj... they are simply power pact... our gals... i believe they have a chance... cos they are a very equally distributed team... they have a tight defense and also a well varied attack.... just hope they can maintain their form...

haven been bloggin for a few days... first, the excuses.. friday night i was too tired.. den yesterday nite my sis and her frens were hogging onto all the comps.. so got none to use...

now to backdate on my happenings.. friday... went training... din really do much... just went back to play.. my knees are really starting to hurt more and more.. does that mean i'm getting heavier and heavier?? hope not... although i know just hoping doesnt help much but den.... :P

after training went tuition... hay drove me there on the way to meet yinglan for dinner... dunno why they suddenly meeting for dinner also... well.. i shall not probe further... tuition was okay... cos even though she still din do homework.. at least she din shut off during lesson... so still okay...

went home... sent dear home... den picked lisi up for supper... and later yanli too... den we went to rochor to eat "tao huay"... she finally agrees that it's better than the geylang one... but i dun mind the geylang one lar... geylang win with it's varieties on the menu... whereas rochor's only "tao huay".. kindda boring actually...

saturday... i was supposed to go tj to watch the gals play frenly against temasek poly... i could get up... decided i shld rest a little more for my psychometric test at MOE... I'm glad i did..the test was supposed to last from 1.30pm to 5pm... but it only started around 2.45pm.. den at 4.30pm it was only half time... luckily the latter tests werent timed and we could leave as soon as we finished... obviously i did i as fast i could lar... it's only questionnaires... irritating... luckily i met jincai at MOE.. he applied for teaching scholarship too... at least not so bored... the test really tedious lor... pretty much like SAT... not difficult... just that they give a lot of questions and very little time... irritating...

oh yah.. tj gals won 4 out of 5 set of the frenly.. think with this result they shld be all set and prepared for the championships... for the guys... it's time u get a religion if u dun have one...

today... woke up at noon only cos i was suppose to give tuition again.. yupzZ... i din give her any homework last lesson so i din expect much... my aim is to see her do her work... on den i can be sure she really understands the topic... she seems quite at ease with her maths today.. seems like she already noes wat to do... how to do... i assume that's cos she well awake... yah... i wonder how long she can keep up with this sort of attention... hahaa...

4e guys are actually out for lunch to celebrate silie's birthday.. but cos i was having tuition i couldnt go.. i told kaiyu i would be meeting them only after lunch... but he somehow got the wrong msg and tot i was joining them... still i couldnt make it of cos... after tuition i msg kaiyu only to find out he and tenghui have gone home to study... and when i called fuliang.. he's home too!!! ah man!! wat;s wrong with u guys.. hahaa... soon it will be my turn to mug... haha... wonder if i'll ever get use to mugging again.. haha...

haven been doing much these few days... pretty much just rot at home only lor... den go vball training.. tuition also din go... feeling less den half-hearted abt tuition liaozZ... dun think my cousin is appreciating my efforts to help her... somemore complain to her parents.. say i scold her, insult her... wat the hell... this is so disappointing..

these few vball trainings ended with a discussion for june holidays trip... deciding to go taiwan... gonna be alot of suggestions coming out... soon we will find out who's the spoilt brats and who's the mature ones... it's now a question of money... how much can they afford to pay... will they be able to get the $500 from school by getting the championship... i believe the girls are hopeful.. the guys.. think they will need alot of luck...

been out most of the day... went to dear's place to drive her da jie's car to pick her er jie out of hospital.... yah... was out with them most of the day... went yum cha for dim sum with dear, her er jie, er jie fu and si jie... think the har gao very nice... the prawn very big and fresh... yummy yummy... after that drove her er jie fu home den accompanied them to tampines shopping....

reach home 5plus... super tired... zZzz... just now cooked dinner... think it's nice... cos dear and sis finished everything.. hahaa.. even though i cooked quite a lot... :) hahaa...

this morning went to bright hill to pay respects to my grandma.. it's been 5yrs since she left... memories of her are still vivid... had a hard time trying to find parking there... but i was rather proud of myself being able to easily park into a small parallel slot outside the temple... hahaa... somemore my mum say the slot so small can go in or not... haha.. proved her wrong.. no prob at all.. :)

after that went tampines for lunch... okay okay only... nothing fantastic.. just went foodcourt... haha.. go all the way there just for food court... so dum rite?

just received a letter from PSC informing me that i was not shortlisted for their scholarships, but since i showed interest in teaching they have transfer me to MOE for further considerations... i was kindda disappointed i wasnt select even for an interview before they reject me... well... guess competition's too strong?? hope i can get something out of MOE... haha...

had a whole day of vball at tj... quite shuang.. although din really played well during the guys training... but overall okay lar... esther and wanyang was around in the morning too... me really sweat a lot... changed 5 tshirts today... all time high liaozZ.. haha... wet alot of places hahaa... think the girls quite disgusted by my sweat... not i can control one... too bad... think hay seems unlike himself today... din really play well.. den got really fed up... i see liaozZ also sianzZ.... that set.. everyone also play until very sianzZ... very unlike him to flare up den everyone moral just disappear... this is bad.... yah... that's about it...

after vball went dinner with dear at ajisen... very long never eat liaozZ... shuang... hehee...

feel so tired today... been out the whole day... morning sent dear to NTU... den went back to the tuition centre wanted to collect my pay, but boss wasnt there... so went tj first.. so i'm like in tj super early... got there rot a while... see the "small" ones play mahjong... kids nowadays super shiok... hahaa... met up with hay at the bedok camp hawker for lunch... nothing much there leh.. the prawn noodles still not open... suay... malay food wasnt fantastic... yah... after that went back for training.. training was tiring today... first thing i had to do was to stand on the table and spike... that was like super tiring lor... right hand tired... left hand tired... but most tiring are legs... cos stand on table.. scared fall down... wobbly wobbly liaozZ... when playing match, din really had a good game... making alot of silly dumb mistakes... am i just too tired?? think the girls team really have a shot at getting something this year... they need some luck though... alison was playing well today... think she has really improved a lot.. but she really has to watch the ways she goes down... everytime also with kena the knee den will bleed... tsk tsk tsk... wanted to tell her that she really played well.. but dunno how to put it... somemore hay say liaozZ.. so i say somemore like extra.. so yah... she's improving well...

went to the tuition centre after vball.. finally got my pay check.. returned him the keys and i'm done with that tiny little place... hahaaa.... i'm free.. and jobless again.. hahaa...

came home den immediately went for tuition liaozZ... super tired after everything... fell asleep.. so yah.. i just woke up again...

i successfully submitted my essay for USP last nite... and also i have submitted a whole lot of certificates, result slips and testimonial for my scholarship... hope i'll be getting something... :)

finally finished writing my essay liaozZ... although i still think it doesnt really sound right.. but that's all i have for now.. at least today seems more productive den yesterday... yah... managed to complete it lor...

din do much today... when tuition... came home den dear came to find me for dinner... came home after dinner trying to do my Essay... why is writing an essay so difficult?? guess it's so when u are brain dead... could only squeeze out 2 short paras... and they really DUN sound right... shit manzZ.. going to sleep soon... continue tml... please wish me luck... gotta get more ideas tml... jiayou!!!!

just got up not long ago.. haha.. i fell asleep when i got home... i was folding my clothes den BOOM.. i was sleeping... but i din sleep for long lar... a while only.. but i feel much less tired now.. good short rest.. hhaa...

not too fruitful today... cos i was suppose to to my USP essay but i din do... suppose to help dear edit photos... but din do... lying on my bed most of the time... until hay called and ask me to go eat... den i got out of my bed.. haha.. wat a sloth!!! hahaa... ate at bedok mac... and i applied for the EZlink Member thingy.. just for fun lar... dun think i'll be visiting that often anyway.. haha...

went back tj for vball.. today play until super tired... i gotta squeeze my tshirt 4 times today.. usually only twice... so yah.. think i had a good workout?? hahaa... so i kindda ate more for dinner... ate fishball noodles... very long lever eat liaozZ.. the fishball is still nice... it's hard to fine food that doesnt drop much in standard... this fishball noodles really did well to maintain it's standard... so many yrs liaozZ... change so many cook.. still good... impressed... yah.. i also ate cheng teng.. den bought fruits to eat somemore... full full full..

okie, i better start writing my USP essay.. or else i wun meet the 1st Apr deadline... AArrGGgggHHH...

finally i got an idea for my USP essay... it's gonna be something on right and wrong... yah... think i'll have fun writing on that... will do the writing tml.. i wun be going back to that tuition centre to work liaozZ.. friday i'll be going back to find him for the last time.. to get my cheque and return him his keys... den i'm out of there!!!!! yeah!!!!

boring sunday... dinner in kushinbo... hoping it to be good.. but so disappointed... the place has deteriorated beyong recognition... suckzZ liaozZ.... haizZ...

first thing i did today was to take a cab down to Katong mall to buy choco cake from awfully chocolate for lihui.. it's her bday... so yah... i went to buy lor... half kg cake shared by almost 20 of us... hahaa... the cake was really nice... very chocolaty and not too sweet.. think i can finish the whole cake myself.. hahaa.. seems like lihui has quite a fruitful bday.. lotsa presents from the kids... yupzZ.. everyone likes her... hahaa... how not to rite??

vball today was okay... but i'm facing a problem... will we be getting enough players for our tj alumni team... i see those in UNI not coming down... yet ppl like qingwen and zhiwei can still make it down... this shows a lot for commitment... missing once or twice is okay.. i understand they all have their own things to settle... but how long do they need?? basically i can say they dun show their face after their inter hall games... this sucks...

just now dragged dear to go watch "the eye 10" not really that scary lar... lame at many parts but most of the time really quite silly... ppl are laughing thru'out the show... hahaa... surprising rite....

just wanna add a few more words...

eunice : good luck to u.. :)
esther : u still got things to tell me?
wanyang : jing cha shu shu.. hahaa..
lihui : happy happy bday!!

okie can go sleep liaozZ..

okie.. so lihui's not in today's outing.. oppzZ.. hehee.. not exactly a wonderful day for me also... early in the morning went marina square for bowling with my cchs kakis... really cheap... $1 per game... cos just reopen so got offer.. we were there before it open.. so confirm got lane.. took 1st 2 lanes... my scores are seriously off the charts today... way way below the charts... well.. yah.. so rather lousy day for me at the lanes... but it was rather eventful... alot of weird things happen...

TOP 5 LIST

5. one fren bowled really hard again, 1 pin slided outside the range of the barrier so it was still lying in the middle of the lane after the rack came down for the cleanup. btw he missed that pin on his second try as well.

4. another fren bowled right after trying to hit and clear that pin in the middle of the lane... but he also missed... but he still managed a STRIKE!!

3. another fren, he recently became rather "gan jiong"... he got ready as the rack came down after the 1st throw... he released his powerful shot too early and it rebounded off the barrier...

2. same fren as no.3 bowled really hard.. hit the pins.. when the rack was suppose to come down to collect the pins, someting else fell down.. the lamp bracket for the lights also came crashing down...

1. we were at lane one, same fren as no.4 swung the ball really hard.. ball flew in the air landed outside the lane and bounced towards the wall. leave a dent and a white patch on the wall (they just refurnished the place)

left the bowling centre to go meet PS weijie jass and esther for lunch... wasnt really wat i had in mind also... to say the truth i think i shld not have gone for the lunch... think i felt rather left out... dun think they did it on purpose lar.. but even i find myself rather extra... tried to make myself scarce...

after lunch we walked around aimlessly for awhile before deciding to come my house for awhile... before that we stopped by orchard cos jass wanted to buy something from isetan... paulene's working there as well... esther & jass went to buy their stuff and when they got back.. they said they saw xiujuan too.. she just got even thinner... OMG!! hahaa..

at my house was rather boring lar... i manage to find a rather entertaining show for them to watch.. while i just fell asleep on the chair... duhzZ.. wat a day... sianzZ rite??

guess this entry will be for eunice... since i cant leave a msg in ur blog... i hope u'll be able to see this... i was hoping u could stay in tj too... after all these months, i guess u all have bonded really well... it's really hard for u to leave i guess... well... dun give up just yet... go to the principal... write in to her directly... get recommendations from ur CT dun think fung is useful anymore... write about urself.. try to sell urself... get ur CT to write a short para and sign off... rules may be rules but they can always make allowances for those who are REALLY keen... so yah.. dun give up just yet k... try ur best to impress the principal with everything u've got... things may just work out... whether u heed my advice, that's ur wish.. but no matter where u end up... u'll always be part of our team.. i'm sure the rest feel the same.... jiayou... just is case she doesnt see this... ppl pls let her know k... :)

yeap inertia still working very hard on me today.. still din go work... haha... starting to get worried if i could even get my pay... well... not going to worry about that yet... spend the whole day at home... not very constructive.. tot of running on my threadmill... but that's as far as i got.. just thinking... just now went out with mum and sis... watched miss congeniality 2... not a bad show... i was expecting a lousy sequel.. but i was wrong... it was not bad.. hahaa.. good laughs along the way...

tml shld be a better day.. going bowling in the morning... den afternoon meeting with esther & PS & weijie & jass and lihui i think... yah.. think tml will be more fun...

really wanted to go to work today.. was already changed in the morning... but i just fell asleep on my bed again... well.. guess i just cant bring myself to go back to that place again... so i guess i'll just to try again tml.. i need to go back to get my pay for last month.. i'll make sure he gives it to me... i dun really care about this month.. but last month's pay a must.. last month got more money.. hahaa..

so i'm sure about it now.. i'll be going thru courses to become a qualified coach... yeap... step 1: NCAP tech lvl 1 @ VAS... step 2: NCAP theory lvl 1 @ ssc... step 3: first aid cse @ ssc... yah.. that's the very basic... there will be more.. but that will be in the future... currently i dunno whether i want to go into coaching as a career.. i'm doing this for interest now... we shall see again in the future...

in the not so distant future i have only job in mind... i wanna be in the food industry.. yet i dun wanna waste wat i would learn in my engineering subjects... so maybe i'll be going into foodstuff manufacturing... or processing... the machinery/equipment... yah.. something liddat... maybe i'll come up with some patented method or machine.. den set up my own company.. hahaa... yah.. that's my direction...

saying so much most of it is just thinking... i think a lot.. but more often den not.. i'm too lazy to do it... well... this comes to the topic of being lazy... can anyone be just plain lazy... my ans is NO... there's nothing plain about being lazy... it's a horrifying incurable disease... lazy to exercise, obesity arrives... lazy to work, poverty drops by... lazy to maintain a relationship?? why dun just be alone?? that's an excuse for those who cant find a partner.. hahaa.. well.. it's really bad being lazy.. but i just cant help it... can someone just motivate me out of it?? laziness is just like inertia... once i stop.. i dun wanna start.. once i start... i dun feel like stopping... and if u ask me to stop.. forget about asking me to restart... yah... that's lazines... suxX!!!!

day 3 of my "chao dar" back.... went tj to play ball today... pain was still there... but still bearable.... yah... but downside.. kindda played like shit today... yah... cos of my "chao dar" back... so cant really straighten my arms... den kindda awkward... den like shit lar... timing also like totally off... den like no strength liddat... den now somemore like strained my right shoulder... pain pain... came home to find dear for dinner.... we went to geylang serai to eat... eat till very full and very shuang... hahaa.. after den we had a long long walk... all the way to kembagan MRT... long cos we walk almost an hour... slowly walk and talk lor... yah.. quite nice lor... very long never liddat liaozZ... took bus from kembagan onwards though.. hehee.. tired liaozZ.... zZzz....

today's the aftermath of yesterday... hahaa... cos i stayed at home the whole day... trying to cool myself off.. i'm HOT HOT HOT!! can practically cook an egg with the scorching skin of mine... aarrggghhh!! lesson learnt... never go bare back without sunblock/suntan lotion... now i learn it the hard way... guess this is also good proof that singapore is really getting hotter and hotter... wonder how are we gonna survive a century down the road... it's about time for the scenes in "day after tml" to happen... scary at first but i guess it's actually not a bad thing rite?? cool down the earth a bit... PHEW!! now i'm just blabbering away.. i need to think of an essay for the USP... arrgghhh... "write about an idea that fascinates you or how it has challenged your thinking" wtf!! even the title seems alien to me.. tsk tsk tsk.. how how how?? suggestions anyone???

haven blogged for a few days.. been hiding at home for a while... turtled-myself... hahaa... yah... yesterday i has having a bad stomachache... whole day i was on my bed... pain pain pain.... that's yesterday.. now better liaozZ... this morning went to play basketball at bedok... now super "chao dar"... whole body's burning now... arrgghhh!!!!! shld have put some protection... aarrrgghhh....

was in tjc the whole day yesterday... there in the morning... there in the afternoon.. there at night... and past midnite.. morning i was there for guys training.. den afternoon gals training... suppose to go to work after that.. but heck lar.. too tired to work... so went dinner with them instead... ate the super cheap $1 chicken rice opp tj.. quality suxX lar... but think the price is still quite attractive lor.. yah... that's my dinner... went home soon after to get car... den drove to tj.. original plan was to go supper with the small ones... but hay was like super late... den we decided to "ta pao"... so i drove with wanyang to buy supper back.... after the food was talk cock session... den finally left me and hay to watch our OLD videos.... memories are sweet but wat's over is gone... so sad...

today i din go work again.. stay at home whole day... sleep thru the day until dinner time... den went dinner with mum and coffeeshop nearby... went KTV and chinatown with dear, puey,zip & dx... sang alot of songs... quite long never go ktv liaozZ.. so quite shuang... but nose kindda block so cant sing properly, quite disappointed abt that... sobzZ... but still fun lar... got a lot of new songs...

never blog for 2 days liaOZz.... tired the past few days.. doing wat?? i also dunno... just very tired lor.. sunday din do much.. slept practically the whole day.. den yesterday... go play vball... went back to the tuition centre in the afternoon... looked up the 2 gals for lunch... told boss i quitting.. officially end of this month... but unofficially... i also bo chup... hahaa...

went tuition today. gotta go to her house in serangoon.. far far and inaccessible.. irritating.. pekcek... shalt not say more... PEKCEK!!

i received my SAF100 liaozZ... next reservist callup will be May 17 to May 28... lucky i'm in airforce.. hahaa.. cos that just means 2 weeks of boring work.. haha.. take it as going back for visit... yah.. but i think i gotta pass my ippt when i go back.. if not gotta do RT... sobzZ....

i only have one word for NUS open house... boring... super crowded.. lucky i was there early... went with weijing, kelly & wanyang... we were all interested in different stuff in NUS.. so kindda walked our own ways there... but it wasnt really that interesting lor... i found wat i was looking for... my main aim was just to listen to some talks... primarily the engine fac one and the USP one... guess i'll just stick to engine for the time being... i'm really interested to join the USP though.. think it's quite interesting.. i wanna do well in Uni.. and be recognised... dun wanna be just quiet unknown me anymore...

went back tj for vball after the open house... only me, hay and qingwen there... quite sianzZ.. but that's also when i really get to play... so yah.. no complains from me... next week's the start of the week-long hols... and also vball camp again... dunno when i can make it back to play also....

today's mum's bday... so went out for dinner with her... when to marriot hotel.. buffet dinner... it's thailand themed this time... food wasnt fantastic... think the dessert more interesting... lot's of durian stuff.. surprise to see many angmohs there too... guess durians getting pop with angmohs too.. haha..

just now just drove to wenyi's place to pass her the present i got for her 21st bday... it's basically a crystal ornament lar... think she'll like it... hehee... not as expensive as mum's present.. but hope she likes it when she sees it...

went back tj to play vball.. and i still din go back to work.. hahaa... seriously dunno how to face my boss liaozZ.. hahaa.. but still i'm quitting.. next week gotta go back at least on monday... cos next week is pay week... but i dun care lar...i get my last month's pay den sua liaozZ... this month i also din go to work much, like 2 days only.. give him free lar...

tml going to NUS open house...

went to buy wenyi's and mummy's bday present with dear... got them all liaozZ... mum's present was super EX... spent $250 on it... just hopes she'll like it... she has a particular liking for Swarovski Crystals... but i can find any that i like... nor any that she doesnt have... so we ended up buying crystal from precious thots... not cheap also... but i think the craftsmanship looks much better than the Swarovski ones.... yah... that's today... tml going to work... finally... gotta tell the man i'm quitting....

din go to work today again... decided liaozZ.. made up mind liaozZ.. think i'm going to quit the tuition centre job very soon... yah... sick of office jobs liaozZ... yah... interested in more hands on stuff.... cafe jobs anyone??? anybody got anything for me???

had quite a fun day today... went to work initially... but reached there... no one had the mood to work... so we talked lor... just waste time and waste time... yah... whole morning do nothing... den we went to rent vcd to watch... watched the Connie & Carla... funny funny... yah.. after show go for lunch.. outside Tj there... so me just brought my bag along... sick of the work anyway... brought some work home.. see if can do a bit or not.. den tml wun be so jialat....

stay in tj after lunch... played vball till 8pm.. very tired and my legs really very painful... my jumping really got problem liaozZ... depressing... shld i continue playing vball?? or maybe the question shld be.. can i still play or not... finding myself pretty useless... but if dun play.. i dun think i'll exercise also... so how??

dear came to find me at tj... happy to see her... went to coffeeshop opp tj for dinner.. had quite a nice dinner... not too ex lar.. exceptable... maybe shall go JB one of these days...

tml going down to stupid jobstreet to give them my timesheet... i realise i msg that jobstreet woman... not once she had replied... shall not waste money on her anymore... yah... next time i'll go direct to HQlink...

din blog yesterday.. cos i was just dead tired.. by the time i reached home.. i could only lie on the bed and be DEAD!! yah so the career fair is finally over... had quite an interesting experience... quite fun... saw lots of different kinds of ppl over the few days... but really stand until legs very pain.... too heavy liaozZ... legs now still aching like siao...

today din go work also.. cos i was just simply too tired.... rested the whole morning in fact the whole day lar.. now feeling much better liaozZ... had a very full dinner just now at 5* chicken... their charges going very high... not for the chicken but other dishes.. like anyhow charge one... next time i'll just stick to chicken.... e rest waste money...

after 3 days at suntec... i finally feel the pain.. my legs are really aching... it's really kindda sudden.. i was alrite thru-out the day till i finished job... but my knees and my calves suddenly have this acute pain the moment i stepped out of the exhibition hall... just now reach home immediately do stretching... now feeling better... i din really do anything strenuos except standing most of the time... although i had a chair.. but it was too high.. so sometimes i'd rather stand..

today doesnt seem as interesting as yesterday... the kind of pple are getting repetitive.. and time seems to be crawling as well... i was also real tired when i woke up this morning also... super xinku... usually i dun eat breakfast one, today went to eat hoping it would keep me awake... it kindda did lar... but din last too long... after awhile i was yawning again...

at the exhibition i drank a lot of water to try to keep myself awake... resulting my heavy bladder... haha... gotta go toilet so many times... i also tried to be more talkative... the more i talked the more awake i got... and yah.. that's practically how i got thru my day.. talk and talk and talk... saw some of eileen & lisi's classmates today.. they gave me the funny look.. si ginas.. haha.. also saw my airforce fren... saw xiaowen... saw nelson too... he kena scolded by me somemore... NUS eng yr1, come see wat career fair.. hahaa...

after work ate dinner with mum, keli & dear... went to outback steakhouse... the steak was not bad... basically the food was not bad... there's this interesting chicken dish.. "alice spring chicken" quite nice.. like the cheese and mushroomy taste... but the wait for the food was irritating.. the restaurant seems to be severely under-staffed... super slow... dear went to scold them a few times somemore... that's my dear... so.. no one try bullying her k.. sure kena jialat jialat from her one... except me.. haha..

2nd day at the career fair.. still find the job okay for now... hahaa.. but i think i do feel a little less interested as yesterday.. cos i find that i was talking lesser... less interactive... less proactive... yah... that's my attitude... but i am talking more to colleagues and other booth pple.. just crapping lar... dunno their names also.. haha... jus crap together.. crapping knows no boundaries...

fun part today is the kinds of people... there are nerds, idiots, babes, more nerds, uneducated aunties and uncles, uni grads, china nerds, suntec security guard looking for another job in their uniform, caucasians, indian nerds, physically disabled, mentally impaired, skimply-dressed babes, european nerds, rude students, very-skimpily-dress babes (a.k.a. bra-less, damn obvious), very rude students, kiasu singaporeans who take pamphlets just because someone else take, thrifty singaporeans who actually return pamphlets after reading thru them, kiasu students who would say " free ar?? TAKE!!", aunty who took english newspaper supplements even though they dun know english, aunty who chatted with me for 20mins about her son's education and i tot she was mad, uncles who spoke to me in hokkien, a jap old man spoke to me in jap as if i understand and he wouldnt stop even though i gave him the "huhh??" look, some navy warrant officer asking me where is the navy booth (SAF are having their own career fair at Suntec Atrium, in fron of carrefour, and i'm not suppose to tell ppl this, cos this will turn my visitors away), the beer ger whom i worked with last week and finally esther, jass and jingting were there too... i really see all kinds of funny people.. hahaa... fun part...

went dinner with esther, jass, jingting and dear also came to find me for dinner.. we went cafe cartel... dear was there to get the places first... we ate lots of bread... i think might have 6 to 7 loaves of bread... yah.. i ate this fried chicken main course.. think that replaces the old breaded chicken item... but i think this new one looks like KFC.. more expensive though... and i think i scratched the inside of my mouth with the ultra crispy batter... yah.. think i'll stick to pasta in future..

finally can type an entry before midnite... 1st day at work at the career fair.. quite interesting.. think cos i got a nice supervisor.. quite pretty too... think she quite stylo... but think she's well over my age.. so dear, dun worry.. hahaa.. i manned the info-counter the whole day today.. 10 whole hours there is not an easy job.. but i think it's more interesting den working in office... at least u get to stand there talk to ppl... get to see pple's response... quite fun...

wat do i do exactly?? pple ask me questions, and i answer them... pple ask me directions, i have no worries on that.. i'm good with directions and i pretty much know the layout already.. pple ask me about wat courses and jobs are available... i'm still slow with that but i have a very useful directory with me and almost everyone have been patient with me today... phew...

i have to say i am not overly outgoing... i try to pro-actively ask pple if they need assistance.. but more often den not... i'll just keep quiet and wait for their queries... i'm happy and glad that i can actually answer and handle most of the queries today.. not much help needed from my sup.. and 80% of the time i'm there alone at the counter.. so i'm pretty much on my own already...

met quite a few pple at the fair today.. eve and bugs was there... so was carlin and her frens... i even saw my driver back in airforce... he was in a suit.. looks like big boss.. haha.. dun underestimate those drivers.. hahaa...

din go to work today.. slept thru the morning... raining.. nice weather to sleep... the good thing about this tuition centre job is that if i dun feel like going.. all i need to do is give some dum/lame excuse and i can stay at home and sleep... hahaa... but den again this may not be a good thing.. cos i lose $$$... told boss on monday that i wun be coming to work on thurs and fri liaozZ.. cos i'll be helping out at career fair... he din seems like he minded.. so.. bo chup him.. haha...

went to teach jiaqin earlier today since i din go work... teach early finish early so can go home rest early.. haha.. more sleep... teaching her really chore... always spend half the lesson scolding her.. also dunno if she gets wat i teach or not... now i truly understand wat is the hardest part in teaching.. it's making ur student WANT to understand... WANT to learn... super big challenge...

went down to TP to see the Tj gers play against TP.. think our gers are technically not bad... but somehow they lack the desire to win... perhaps it's still early in the year... we shall see how things develop as the competitions draw nearer..

went to watch Hitch with dear after vball... nice show... a show to watch in couples... full of laughter too... thanks to will smith and the fat guy... cant remember his name... yah.. it's a nice and relaxing show to watch... best after a tiring day...

so tml i'll be station at suntec city, hall 603.. so pple visiting the career fair.. please to drop by and say hi.. i predict i'll be rather bored.. esp weekdays... so yah.. come find me yah??

went to Career fair briefing in the morning... i'll be at the infomation counter thru out the 4 days.. so anyone wanna go visit the career fair?? admission is free.. i'll be at the info counter everyday.. can go find me k...

the back stabber at the tuition center is gone.. he has left for NIE... tsk tsk tsk... now boss will be around more often... not a good thing... cos that means more of his disruptive comments and useless ideas... like shit.. dun care... shall just take my own sweet time in doing things... i forsee his tuition centre to close in a few yrs time... brainless method of teaching... doesnt he know by now u cannot use 1 single method to teach everyone?? haizZ... stubborn... dun care.. also not my company...

went vball training after work.. not in the state to jump or spike... basically become serving machine again.... the group of guys really full of shit... their training is practically a sitcom... most of the guys shld be able to get into tj.. except for a few who gotta appeal... the gals impressive... all got in... super impressive... really a lot of people lor... hmmm... seems like there is hope for going to taiwan liaozZ...

work whole day today... after work still go teach tuition... teaching her really getting more and more tedious.. she really dun remember anything.. e more i teach... e more she forgets.. the mor ei have to revise... it's an incredible vicious cycle... horribly horrifying... aarrrggghhhzZ...

Os are out today.. still no news when As will be out... i received my matriculation letter from NUS liaozZ.. time to decide to join them or change course.. gotta decide fast... time is no longer on my side... time seems to be getting faster recently... getting more busy.. more work... more things at home... adult life suxX... earn more money...
