The Game of Life
Guys lost their match today, but they took 1 set from their opponents and that's the crucial point. That set will bring them thru to the semis. So it's still not so bad. They have lost the game mainly to themselves again, very similar to the manner they lost to MJC.
In my many posts in TJVB blog, i've talked about plenty of ways to keep the morale up, how to face their opponents. When they fail to achieve what's stated, i find it hard to put blame on them. Cos in the past i couldn't do that well, in fact i still might not be able to do it. But i guess there's a crucial difference, now there's ppl like me and other seniors telling them the rite things, in the past, there's only fung. And truthfully, fung wasnt that proficient then. All is better now, I do hope that the guys achieve something in this competition, get into finals minimum. But my biggest regret will be not being able to bring the gals further into the competition.
Someone asked how to improve in the game of life. Well the question i would ask in response would be, "What do you consider an improvement in the game of life? Are you sure that improvement is really an improvement or just a meer desire to feel better?" To me the best outcome is being able to live and survive through the game of life.
In this game there are no resets, no replays. Only memories, good or bad, those will be the only things that will follow us for a very long time. As much as we would want to redo so many of the things we could have done better in one way or another, having done some things the way we did is what makes our lives unique and special. Be it good or bad, winning or losing, they are part & parcel of life, losing makes you cherish future winnings. The most important mentality to have the desire and hunger to win, while being able to survive thru and learn from loses.
I've spent 3 years in TJ, without much aim or direction. In fact i'm still pretty lost now, no idea wat i'm doing in NUS. Even less idea what i'm doing in civil engineering. The one thing i'm certain of, I see my role in TJVB to give all members fond memories of the 2 years they have in TJVB.

Pretty Boring Weekend
Saturday was slightly more eventful than sunday. I had volleyball training in the morning followed by badminton in the afternoon. I realised it's kindda hard to find a place to restring my badminton racket. Went to the sportlinks at bedok interchange just before i my badminton game. They had the service there, but it will take 1 week!! So that didnt work out. Guess i'll just go back on another day, or does anyone know where i can do it and not take 1 week? In my memories, restringing usually only take 30mins.. :P
Sunday has been pretty boring except when yanli came to find me for lunch. pretty much rot at home after that.
So boring, so sianzZ... And all this sianness is due to one little monster!! yupzZ, that's the little monster!! hehee.. Yanli's niece, both her parents are in US so her aunties are taking care of her. She's taking up my timeslots.. :P
yah, she's cute and yanli say's she looks like me when i was young. Conclusion, all babies look alike when young. :P
6 more days before her mum comes back. boohoohoo...
but that also means, hey ppl!! I'm free, please ask me out.. hehee..

Good May
May has been good so far, Tj guys won against HCI today. Morale overwhelmed them. GOod win, good play, good supporters, GOOD GAME!! 1 more win and SEMIs will be knocking on the door. Went to BK at millenia walk with all the guys and gals, kids are funny. hahaa..
Second day of may and i've already watched 2 movies!! muahahaa.. Watched WILD HOGs yesterday at bedok. It's a very good show. Very funny and rather corny but it actually has a morale of them story.. hahaa.. Watch it and find out for yourself.
Today I watched the long awaited spiderman 3. 1 superhero vs 3 super villains and his own dark side, while getting a little messed up in his love life. Lots of content in the plot, i guess that's the justification for it 2.5hrs showtime. It's action packed and a rather good ending to the series, IF it's going to end. Kirsten Dunst does look a little pale, anorexia?? Watch it!! it's good..

Mayday
Exams are officially over since yesterday. I'm free from studies for the moment. For the next few months, i'll need to find a part time job and support myself alittle. My little red picanto need $$ to maintain also.
Meanwhile, i have volleyball to bother with. Gals got knocked out yesterday through a series of unfortunate events. Our main player got injured and the rest of the team just couldnt seem to recover from the shock and they finally lost. It just proves that they are still very young and not able to control themselves yet. When a teammate falls out due to injury, the rest of the team will just have to work doubly hard to cover for her lost. That something they will need to learn, but sadly this is the end of their season. Guys however are still in the running, and tml they will face their toughest opponents so far. In fact none of their opponents in the second round can be considered a walk in the part.
I miss those days when i can actually play and make a difference to the results.

I'm enlightened!!
After today's paper, i've almost guaranteed myself of not being able to achieve any honours in my degree, UNLESS!!! miracle happens and i still scrap thru this module. totally, lost in the woods when i looked thru the questions, i spend the last half an hour planning how to retake and study for the module again. haha. anyway!! 3 down!! 1 dead!! 2 more to go!! hehehee..
Tj lost both matches today, gals almost won AJ, it's a pity they lost. I was really looking forward for them to upset SAJC, especially when it seems like SA were underestimating us. But it was not to be, thankfully, the gals still have a chance to get into the second round. Monday, they MUST win MJC. Guys lost to MJC today, I had a feeling they would lose today actually, firstly, they dun look prepared. They dun look scary. They dun really look like they wanna win. Anyway, they are already thru to the second round. The real fight is only about to begin.

My Ass Burns!!
Diarrhea!! Vomit, fever, dizzyness. You name it, i have it. luckily, i feel much better now. thanks to the pretty effective medicine from the doctor. I had 2 papers today, and i was feeling okay during the first one. at the end of that paper, i started going to the toilet very frequently, and immediately i knew something was wrong. I called yanli to check up on her too, she also has similar symptoms. AARRGGHHH... must be the stupid muslim food we had the night before. we went to this shop new kembagan MRT, it's call al-ameen or something, ate Nasi goreng USA & Murtabak pizza. I'm boycotting this place from now on, and people!! watch out for it!!

I'm ROTTING in School!!!
I came to school today today. but al i did was to print my notes and tutorial solutions. I think that's all i'm going to do today. really cant set my mind to studying in the day time. maybe it's just too bright, i belong in the night. I'll start all over again tonight. going to kill some time now, and find yanli later to accompany me. hahaa..
btw, the little red picanto is in my grasp. i drove it around for the past 2 days. it's a real challenge to drive it. firstly, the engine's pretty weak, secondly driving manual really keeps me on my nerves.

Crawling into the Final Phase
Assignments, Lab reports, Term papers are all matters of the past for now. It's OVER!! Just finished the last of it a while ago, but THIS IS STILL NOT THE END!! Exams are round the corner. Frankly speaking, i'm totally not confident in any of the papers. Why do i always have to choose so many modules and in the end, kindda mess up all of them? Arghghgg.. Well, it's also too late to regret, i'll just have to do wat i have been doing the past few sems, start "hugging buddha's leg", it doesnt always work anyway. Luck seem to have left me long long ago. Energy too..
Oh well.. 2 more days, 1st paper, Computer Programing practical exam. It's a repeat module for me, cos i failed it last yr. not confident of passing it this year too, but i believe i'm at a better state than last yr. the rest of the papers will start rolling in starting from the 21st. the good news is, it's going to end by MAY.
starting in about the same time, is the A divisions. Going to be part of the TJ coaching staff, well officially there's only me and fung.. haha.. unofficially.. there's plenty of seniors who are coming back. BUT!!! i still dun see enough people coming for alumni training.. super saddening...
SNEAK PREVIEW : I'm going to get a RED Picanto VERY VERY soon...

Relieved!!! --- For now..
Completed 3 Lab Reports, 3 Assignments in the past 7 days. Although that's not the end of it, at least i can take a slight breather. Coming up next will be mugging and more mugging, which i hope will be able to start soon, cause my lag is getting bigger by the day. As for deadlines, there will be a Term paper and 1 HUGE lab report due next week.

300 & Stomp the Yard
These are 2 movies i've watched over the past week, though i did watch some thai shows on vcd like "the dorm", "mercury man" both are rather corny, but entertaining.. haha.. and re-watched "just like heaven" on SCV, that had a pretty heavy impact on me. It reminded me how much i like to watch reese witherspoon, and her movies.
anyway, back to main points, i personally like "300" pretty much. it's basically a small army fighting a mathematically enormous army. i like the simple plot, pure-simpleminded-egomaniac thinking of the spartans. the fight scenes war pretty well shot, there's no jumpy views which really just cause headache instead of creating tension. teamwork is the essence of their combat tactics. it's always exhilarating to see impeccable teamwork in the process. shiok. haha. i think greek history is as messy as rojak, some bright colors are evident in the dish, but most of it is just covered in a black gluey marsh. BUT it still tastes GOOD. haha.. spartans are actually short, just look back at the scene when Leonidas met Xerxes, Leonidas looked like a hobbit in front of Xerxes. one word can describe the situation, comical. the scenary in the whole show is quite beatifully done, esp when it's totally shot in blue/green screens.. xerxes is from persia, which essentially is asia, and wat bugs me is that the producer depicts asia as a place full of freaks and freaky creatures.. ouch!! overall good show, goos entertainment.
(3 of 5*)
"stomp the yard" is something i watch just last night. it's about black culture in US, hiphoping, battling but the MAIN in this movie is called STEPPING. Stepping and stomping to heavy rhythmic music, radical moves and unison is the key of this dance. it's probably adapted from s stomping musical, cos there's just lots of action. the stomping gets your body beating to the rhythm, gets your blood pumping. simple plot with the simple ideas of life, dun give up doing what's right. it make you wanna dance, and that's wat makes a good movie good -influence-

Recent Movies
Just watched "music and lyrics" on monday.. It's a very entertaining and enjoyable movie.. Funny with a tinge of touchings.. i wonder if the songs sung were actually done by themselves.. cos i really quite like the songs.. good, catchy songs always make good enjoyable movies.. just like in dreamgirls.. nice..
The next movie i want to catch is 300, the review of this movies seems very positive, but i receive news from some sources in US that the movie was actually quite disappointing.. hmmm.. i wonder... i'll still watch it anyway...

2nd Half of the Term STARTS!!!!
It's exactly 2 weeks since my last post.. i wonder if anyone missed me during my absence from here.. ANYONE??? leave me a message. hehee..
Anyway, Chinese New Year is halfway through, i have not counted my red packet $$ yet.. i'm gonna wait till the 15th is over.. just for the mystery of it.. hahaa.. i ate quite a lot of titbits this year.. i think it's cos i'm having my midterm break at the same time.. so i just try to finish up the remnants of the titbits after most of the visiting to my place was done.. din invite anyone over this year, except for the annual visiting of my 4e ppl, have seen them in ages.. really!! i've been missing most of the outings mainly due to volleyball commitment in TJ.. this year is also unique, cos quite a few of them brought their partners along, huiting brought joe, silie brought lirong and latest of all tenghui brought jane.. took some photos while they were at my place.. just follow the usual photo links on the top left..
went KTV with yanli during the break too.. haven been singing for a long long time.. so the 2 of us just sang non-stop for aronud 5 hrs.. hahaa. the consequence is sore throat followed by throat infection.. followed by flu.. headache which is still on going now... huge price for a KTV session dunch ya think so?
it's into the second half of this semester, speed of things are going to pick up once again. i have 6 modules and i've just S/U one on sunday just before the deadline.. for those who aint in NUS and dun know wat's S/U, it's basically opting a module to be graded only satisfactory/unsatisfactory.. takes some pressure off the module since there will be not grade score to affect the CAP and getting U is almost impossible.. so technically that leaves me with 5.5 modules to work with.. still alot...
i'm now at east coast mac trying to get my reading assignment which is due today done.. hehe... back to work....

Essays are DONE!!
I've completed my 3 day marathon of essay writing. Completed my final and most tedious essay this afternoon and asked my fren to submit for me. i had to read through more than 60 pages of readings for this essay. i guess it's quite an achievement for myself. although i try not to think too much about the final product, i still doubt it's going to gimme very very good grades. perhaps passable. that's all i ask for. for now.
I'm back in action
Been really missing in action for the past 2 week or so.. missed a few days of lessons.. skipped a few volleyball trainings.. just couldnt seem to get myself sorted out and motivated.. i simply allowed myself to drop back below the pace of lectures and tutorials even more..
well it's over and i cant do anything about it.. after this week will be chinese new year week and also our mid term break... which is basically my mugging week.. but irritating NUS actually place it in the same week.. and eat up my mugging days... aarrgghhh...
this week is the busiest week so far... been rushing on 2 essays the past to days.. and later a third one.. which is also the toughest one to complete... 5 webpages to assess plus 2 more written articles... aarrgghh... too much essays for a civil engineer!!!
time to hit the readings...
