I finally bought an ibook.. typing on it now.. getting used to it and all.. getting the com done up hasn't been easier.. its realli much more stable and realiable compared to a normal PC.. going to get premier in my com soon.. can do my movies properly le.. ok.. wishlist for the next few months ( all related to my ibook):
external hard disk drive
digitizer (or wadever they call it)
firewire cable
those cool things u put on the com so ur palms dun get heated up
protection for LCD screen
Camera?

ok i just switched the colour of this blog from black to white.. haha.. coz i my eyes get kinda screwed up after reading a webbie with black background and white fonts and den switching over to a webbie with white background and black fonts.. hard on the eyes. so i decided to just switch the colours for now.. till i get inspiration or TIME to REALLI change to layout.. but for now.. that's it.. and that's me under the archives.. yeah.. see ya..
ok the reason i'm realli here was to add on the links to kevin's and chinyong's new friendster blog.. its real empty still..

hmm.. busy busy busy... got to finish up to film asap.. datelines 25 july.. i bet many teams have already sent their entries in.. and i'm still shooting.. kingdom of heaven shot in 4 months.. this 10 min video shot in 3.. can't blame me..crew of kingdom of heaven dun hav sch.. haha. and complications such as bloody edmund (of the DMS aka eddie land). That bloody ed said i lied to him... LIE.. u bloody ass hole.. u're just too pure lazy to get ur ass up take the keys and open the bloody door of the store.. its date simple.. and its just 2 steps away from ur office for goodness sake.. thank god for good lecturers like Mr Loh and Ms Kwa and Ms Ngah..

anw.. injured my leg.. stupid sia... if i didn't went to that field at fc 5 to play soccer right after my gems on friday.. and the stupid thing is i was on that field only for a few minutes.. but i stepped on the wrong place.. uneven ground.. so kana ankle.. thought it was a sprain.. yesterday went to see chinese sensei.. he said its a slight fracture.. er.. ok.. to think i still managed to walk about campus, go for band and supper till midnite.. that's like 8 hours of after the time of injury.. hahaha.. so now i'm stuck at home for the weekend left ankle bandaged with pieces of ginger to reduce swelling the guy said.. the swell definitely have gone down.. not so painful anymore.. but.. if still doesn't totally cure by monday.. i'm gonna have it checked by westernized doctors..

finished all my books.. damn.. need more books to read.. any recommendations? took up reading in the train this year.. figured that it'll keep me from missing my stop coz of sleep.. haha..

let's see.. darrel's coming back tml.. after his glorious run in the national team under 18s.. some asian tournament.. the newspaper did a feature on him and said things like ' he's a fast learner and is a focus player'.. i was like yeah rite.. maybe during soccer.. but definitely not in sch.. hahaha.. it's been 2 weeks since term commenced.. he missed out on so much.. how's he gonna catch up? huh.. anw.. this year.. i'm gonna try to get a group without the inclusion of him.. did entrepreneurship project last year.. and all he did was come in and talk cock to jeremy.. and the other ah bengs in the group.. a group of 7 ppl.. productive? NOT. onli 4 ppl workin. me, jesslin, mei hui and chai lye.. and i got a freak C+.. wtf.. wtf.. did so much work and got a C+.. wtf.. hmm..

anw.. i realised something recently... during lecture.. with sanjay and jem around.. its.. noisy man.. and i'm getting realli pissed off sometimes.. ppl are tryin to listen to the lecturer... they're chatting away like nobody's there to hear them.. coz yang's there talkin too.. have to give 'em face.. but within me i'm screaming.. SHUT THe F UP!!... but.. have to.. ren3 lor.. no choice.. xi2 guan4 jiu4 hao3..

If you guys got the time.. or u just wanna relax.. this is the best place to go to.. www.gprime.net haha.. highly recommended.. especially http://gprime.net/video.php/tornmime and http://gprime.net/flash.php/numanuma.. heh..

finally got some time to blog.. wanted to the other day.. but got fed up over my other com.. too slow.. so anw..

last week was study-week.. didn't study much... onli started friday.. haha. on econs.. paper is next week.. PR/Advertising 2 days ago.. wednesday.. onli started studying on sunday.. and guess wad.. some of us didn't go for our last IPRA lecture where the lecturer gave out notes on wad to study.. well.. eh.. i managed to get the notes on wad to study.. but nobody told me that those notes weren't the ONLY notes we were supposed to study.. so like 5 mins before the test on wednesday.. someone showed me his notes.. and guess wad.. wad i studied was onli 71% of the paper.. so..er.. oh crap. oh well. classmates like me, got screwed too..haha.. so.. luckily i onli needed to get 30% of this final paper right to pass this module.. so i guess i'm safe.. haiz.. was aiming for an A or at least a B+.. now.. haha.. nvm. it's over.

so er.. econs revision lecture today.. at 9am.. msg-ed Hc in the morning asked her whether wanted to share cab.. wanted to sleep a little longer.. was up the previous night discovering when the poles of the earths magnetic field will flip over.. and when earth will become eroded and depleted, like mars, by solar wind and the Sun's energy.. could onli understand 50% of that documentary.. but.. it was interesting., actually.. more scary.. to realise that cancer on earth will affect the people much more easily.. when the earths magnetism changes.. when there are no longer 2 poles.. rather..4 -8 poles.. and magnetism will be veri veri weak.. so.. er.. ya.. wadeva.. bottom line is. Our descendants will suffer in a few centuries from now.. argh.. heck.. i won't be around anyway.. unless i can live till like 800.. damn.. i'll be Yoda by then.. haha.

...

anw.. got a cab to sch around 8.45.. left 15 mins to qiong there.. traffic jam along the way from amk all the way after lornie road.. so er.. reached sch half an hour late.. lusia also bochap.. think she realli hates our class la.. see the way she treats us.. compared to other 4 classes.. haha.

ok.. so after revision lecture went queensway a while.. update myself on the latests stuff.. intend to get somethings soon.. shoe's gona spoil soon anw.. initially wanted to go back ai.. but juliet says going back tml.. so decided to skip that and go home and slack..

4 days left to study for econs.. can make it i think.

so going for band tml..meetin sai, nigel and juliet for lunch first.. chiu comin later.. guess i'll study in the morning..

next week.. friday. 15 april flying to china till 25.. yea.. hols.. and i need a break la..

oh yah.. SOCCER PEOPLE!!!

lots of teams available to play with now.. so please tell me your schedule so i can arrange something for us.. i know stamina is low and we lack match pract but.. we gotta restart somewhere.. anw. it's just for fun..

got 3 teams now.. favian's brother's, my pri-sch friend's, and my classmate's..

i'm thinkin marina.. $50/2hrs.. without ref..

or some other grassy areas like amk..

those who see this.. respond asap and try to pass the msg.. and er.. we realli have to try to play without those ppl like renkun,chongyu,lucas for a while.. dey are temporarily unavailable..

will update again dependin on response.. ya..

oRITE.. see ya. gotta catch some sleep.. and think of some words of wisdom or inspiration to tell ai band tml.. haha.. read daniel yeow's blog.. he claims "Long hours of rehearsals, running rounds, the tears, the sweat, the laughters, the joy and the angst during the many months of preparation... For what? Just for the Medal in the end? the reward? Character building is still the most important, BONDING ..."

also " Music is about touching the audience... not getting a medal... what's the point if you can play all the notes on the page and not make any music?"

haha.. i onli agree partially.. it realli depends on the level of maturity of ur members.. right? and the experience.. u can't teach a sec sch band to play 'in-touch' with their feelings if they can't even sight read a piece properly or they don't even have the right embouchure.. all this technical basics should b taught in sec sch wad.. that's the BASIS of music maAn..

anw.. tt guy is one year older than me.. that means he graduated in 2004.. springfield.. dun think he ever felt that feeling of gettin a COP after all the hard work.. hmm.. shall do my research next time..

yeah.

bye. blogged for 43 mins.

So.. it's the new year. 2005. doesn't change anything does it. cept that its 5% GST now.

so we went out yesterday.. with no idea wad to do wadsoeva. chiu, vian, chris, dice met me at yck mrt.. i was late right, i said yesterday. was caught up in the toilet. so the 5 of us went. to city hall. suntec. walked. kenny rogers. ate. left. i wasn't hungry at all. shared a chicken pot pie with chris. i ate too full a lunch la.

so we walked bout suntec after tt. did something stupid, was walking in tower records. toppled over a rack full of cds. piangz. like some stupid chain reaction like tt. one drop all drop. paisei. lucky the guys were there to help me arrange them back. haha. "highlight of the evening"

. . .

favian was tired, he slept for 3 hours, chiu hao didn't want to stay over at orchard also.. can see that benny was kinda pissed for being asked to come out so earli to do nothing, tried to make the best out of the situation , tried to stay happy. come man, it was new year's eve. but it was kinda true, we had no place to go, nothing to do, just waited for kok they all to meet us. called kevin as well. met up with the trackers after their gathering. walked round orchard road, they trying to spot potentinal girls, and be the first to say hi. haha. see alot of ppl getting sprayed, everywhere the same smell, felt better around orchard, more atmosphere i guess. but still we had nothing to do. just walking. rodney told me he wanted a smaller size for his jersey. it's too late to change now le. didn't tell me earlier. so they left at 11 +.. kok they all. so left with the initial 5 of us before kok they all came. dice was still with eunice's gang. den after getting a drink and watching 3 competitors fight sales of the spray cans thing for a while, chiu and favian went back too, so benny got louis out, me, chris ,them, got some tix for meet the fockers, kevin came too. so counted down at midnite. "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" that was all. tried to call lots of ppl, onli manage to get thru to most of them after midnite, i onli finished my calls around 12.30am.. so me,chris,kev,ben,louis sat at BK for a while, ordered some food. while waiting for the movie at 2.25am. the other side finishes their movie round 2+ .. so basically we slacked around cine-leisure from midnite all the way to 2.25am. watched the show. not veri funny. didn't realli laugh out loud, just snicker a little here and there. finished the show, 4 plus.. called lendl, dice phone was out. lendl's phone died too. so did mine. used benny's phone to call jeevan in the end. walked frm orchard all the way to esplanade. 30 mins i think.. blisters hurting..went to find them drinking at esplanade at some secluded areas. onli jeevan lendl and dice were there. so talked a little.. 6am. went home. slept in train. yck. took a cab home. slept till 3.

now i'm up.. later going with father to queensway to collect soccer jerseys. hey wads wrong with orange and black.. haha. total cost $456.
