well, rather than spending time rotting and slacking at home, it's badminton day today.

this time the venue is at Central Tampines CC, giving us a different environment to play in. the hall is rather hot unlike East's and other CC cuz there's not much openings in the area. the lights in the hall is just as irritating as a sun ray shining, i just cant see where the shuttlecock is flying to..

ok, enough said and there's nothing else more except that we were playing a few matches this time and the person who teamed up with me always lose lol.




oops, my finger is blocking.


and yea, spotted some nice Cirrus cloud when i reached home.



Adobe Photoshop is such a lovely and wonderful program and i just liked computer arts so much..

thanks to this website with all the good-tutorials.com. i managed to create nice arts like:

my mom have her off-day today and i wished to accompany her. =)

my mom was actually reluctant to go out but i dont know why everything went smoothly after.. my dad came home unexpectedly and zhihao called and he asked me if i want to play pool at TM. it came to my thought that why everything seems so smooth? so, i promised zhihao that im going and then my dad bring my mom and me to TM.

my ultimate motive to come to TM was to accompany my mom + buying a new bag while she have her off-day. but in the end have to accompany zhihao to play pool instead, haiz. oh well, never mind the brooding. when zhihao came, we immediately went to play pool while my mom went to NTUC to shop for groceries. we played for an hour and zhihao said wanted to play for another 30mins. i asked my mom to come up and accompany me and then i and zhihao continued playing.

today's game was super, extreme luck i must say. i always thought im losing out to zhihao, but i didn't realised that i actually scored very soon and catched up with him. in the end i won to zhihao with a ratio of 2:1.

it was 6pm when we finished playing. zhihao went off first then me and my mom went to look for a new sling bag. the ZiNC shop at TM have the bag priced at $40, my mom says it's expensive and yea i do think so too. therefore we went to the bus interchange where there are mini stalls around and actually found one stall that sells sling bags. bought one for $22. it was like 48% discount, haha.





finally i can store more things in this new bag when i go out. and this new bag can be used for my soon-to-be poly life.

P.S. i hate the damn logo on the bag hahaha.

my decision is up and im going with my heart and my interest.
BUSINESS - i dont think i will ever make it. that word irks me like a dope.

so, my first choice will be Computer Engineering.
hopefully this will enhance my knowledge in computers and have a bright future with good jobs available...

Saturday, January 26, 2008

oh my, choosing the right courses for myself is really getting on my nerves. should i choose business or engineering?. im more on to hands-on experience but yet i want to know more about business too. sciences are hardly my choice.

all i can say that in the JAE form, the first 3 choices are the crucial ones to me.

but.. BUSINESS OR ENGINEERING?

it's pool day again today. we reached katong at about 12:45pm and we had lunch at the nearby hawker centre. the uncle who sells drinks there have bad attitude, lol. guan asked him "有什么水?" and the uncle replied "我应该问你,不是你来问我." that is really weird. fine, we still get our drinks though. ate 烧肉贩 and off we go to our destination.

when we reached there, zhihao was surprised and yelled "huh~~, havent open yet~". then we checked the opening hours and it states there opened at 2PM. when we reached there it was about 1:30PM and so we sat down there to chat, and zhihao was doing many silly things like dancing etc. rofl. lots of people came and most were students from st. pat. at 2PM+, a lady came and opened up the place. the place was immediately filled up fully and it was really crowded unlike previously when we came.

started playing as usual, but after a few games like 3 or so, i felt tired(well im already tired in the first place), restless and moodless. i don't know why i felt moodless but it might be because im thinking too much about something which i shouldn't be at all. so, i chatted with darren about my feelings while playing pool with Don, and felt that most questions in my heart were answered.




it's me and Don



we played till 5pm and our next destination was to go guanyu's house to decide on our poly courses. when we headed out of the pool place, we saw bus 12 and decided to rush for it, but to no avail, as we still miss the bus. so we went to buy some drinks and food. for drinks we bought slurpee from 7-eleven, and this is the cause of one problem. while drinking and eating, we waited for the next bus 12. it came very soon and we boarded the bus with a VERY niao driver(that's my thinking, not the others). this is the first driver i saw that is really so unwilling. we, as a group, had drinks on our hand but he did not allow us to drink on the bus. well that may be the rules for public transport but the damn driver treated us like small kids, thinking that we will spill the drinks easily.. crap. plus the bus didn't have any available seats.

ok, swearing aside. when we reached guan yu's house. first thing was to eat, again. then after that we started to choose our courses. darren was still playing Wii and i was looking through the info on the courses. watched 手足 at 7PM and then back to choosing courses. well i managed to choose 6 courses from SP and the rest should be from TP and other more off-priority polytechnic. we ate dinner at guan's house and after that we had some laughter, peace and joy.

P.S. good thing i didn't need to wait so long for bus 12 to go home this time.

anyways, i wanna write my feelings out here

being loved is a blessing
being cared for is a blessing
being a person with a sense of humour is a blessing

that's just blessings.

having to know the truth WILL BE a blessing/curse.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
it's purely difficult for me sometimes.
i just wanna be someone who can provide people with the smiles and laughter.

but..... the difficulty is at hand.
ok im feeling VERY VERY GUILTY here. i tried to burn some games with the newly bought DVD9s, and that is NFS ProStreet and Gears of War. BUT i didn't realised that some shitty problem actually came about while i tried to burn.

i started burning the disc, and a few seconds later it popped up an error AND THERE GOES $7.50. so, i tried again burning other game with another disc. SAME PROBLEM AND THERE GOES ANOTHER $7.50.

wow, these 2 discs were bought using the voucher we just got from our good results. imagine wasting these discs is just like throwing results one side and can't be bothered.. some may think that this is just small matter, but im one who cares a lot about these. (wad we earned from our sweat and blood must be consumed with much care)

SO, I APOLOGIZE TO DARREN AND PEIWEN...

my heart was sinking and now it's saved by the unrevealing fate.. i got 17 for L1R5 and 14 for L1R4, i felt so relieved as i thought my scores will be 20 and over.. whew

now that i got a suitable results, the stress is still there as to choose the courses i want to go.. sigh. i just cant make it right.

yet thinking about friends, i felt that we are sure gonna get split all over to different poly/jc or different schools in the same poly. but of cause, being in touch is the important task for us.

anyways, life still goes on no matter what results we got. in the end we will still be plunged into the life of workforce. just think of what we learnt in geog.

so in the morning we went to east coast park again. our motives for going there is to have a bbq before getting our results to chill out. but since most of our friends are still studying, we went there for cycling first to let the time pass..
there's something very hilarious happened while on our way back. zhihao was telling us that he was looking at his waterbottle while cycling and wanting to drink. yet, he didn't realise that kris was just in front of him, then the front wheel of zhihao's bike caught up onto kris bike, damaging the stand.. lol. the funny part is that zhihao seems blur trying to get his water, well from what he says.
and this is the result: (the power of moments of force)


we cycled for about 2hours then returned the bikes. (well, i don't know what happened when the bike was returned with that twisted stand.) after that, we went to the nearby NTUC to buy all of our BBQ accessories and food. the price is amazing, i shall not say, but what i can say is that the receipt is extremely long.

after that, we settled down and prepared everything. zhihao and hafiz starts the bbq fire and some of us went to get our stuffs we left at the bike rental shop + getting ice cubes and mineral water. there's nothing much to say here since it's just some usual tasks.

at night, a few of us started brooding, worrying about tomorrow's results. but seriously, all i can say is that fate comes alive here. sometimes things are just meant to be this way, so if anything goes wrong, i shall just take that "ok, what can i do? i tried my best already."

after the brooding is over, some were preparing water balloons, while others were enjoying the breeze near the seaside. most of them went crazy when they start throwing the water balloons around and when the balloons are used up, ice were used instead - putting them onto the backs of people. (a cold chill sent down the spine, rofl).

basically that's about it. it's good that most of us gathered.
emotion wise i must say, for me, happy and a little off-sided. not wise to say on the off sided part.

not much pictures were taken, but these are some i can post.



darren, guanyu, kris


zhihao and me


preparing..

it's 2AM and wow.. nice sky with the moon.







and here's the moonlight shone onto our house


yea, i know i have nothing better to do...

Saturday, January 19, 2008

woah! yesterday i was thinking "hmm, will tomorrow be a day where i will stay in front of this boring computer whole day?".. actually in my mind it's a YES and well indeed there's no calls or anything for activities on that day.

so today afternoon, im so happy to receive a call from zhihao and asking if i wanna play badminton. i went o.O~~

"at least it became a NO for my question, =)"

so at 6pm, me, zhihao, guanyu and hafiz came for the badminton.. so, we just played as normal but then i thought of birthday bash.. it went into a rofl situation. zhihao was making fun of me then i used the shuttlecock to "BASH" him.. then he bashed me back again. it's really =.=' . then after a while i almost got hit by the shuttlecock again and this time by guanyu.. he shot the shuttlecock ONTO my hair.. "shaving" it.. (yea, missed my forehead).

then we went for dinner. and after dinner, again zhihao wanted to take me as a passenger on the bicycle.. as he rode guanyu's bicycle to play badminton.. well of cuz then i will need to cycle it back to guanyu's house. all i can say after 4 years of friends, we were like brothers... yea..






by the way, thanks to all who wrote for me testimonial on friendster and send me sms to wish me happy birthday. ! though it wasn't that many friends did, but i don't care as long as the good and thoughtful friends did wish me, it's enough.. =D
yea, and in the family, only my 2nd brother wished me. lol.

Thursday, January 17, 2008

yesterday was Wii + Mahjong session at guan's house. Wii is interesting while i'm a slow learner in mahjong. nothing much though just some entertainment and fun at his house.
For Wii, it is really really difficult to play FPS games.. but i can say that Wii is most likely best to use with sports game, it's indeed a good way to exercise.
yea, we had lunch and dinner at his house too.
Lunch was fried rice with ikan bilis, popiah and chicken meat. oh wow, so feng fu.. lol. and dinner we had rice with chicken corn soup.


mahjong! (thx zhihao)

today,
in the morning i went to cut my hair as told to by my dad. and i dont know why i just look like a crappy small kid with this new haircut.. argh
then in the afternoon, we went to ngee ann poly open house to look for a few more info and then went to katong to play pool. all went smoothly and it's really worth the day..

great day! great day indeed... today is the 15th, 4 more days and it is my birthday. well, so zhihao eventually organized a cycling outing today to celebrate my be-early birthday at east coast park.

so we went to mcdonald's and waited for darren to reach, and he tooked very very long. so all treated me $1 per person to buy my meal. when darren came, we bought our food and went out for a picnic to have our food there of cuz. kris brought everything it seems. to my surprise, kris actually made a mini-birthday cake for me. wow, im so touched and felt grateful! thanks!

the cake are in the shape of hearts and stars, the taste is quite similar to milkybar chocolate chip but this is in a form of cake and much milkier. oO

then we went cycling and reaches ulu beach and we took a sight-seeing and have a small talk there. after that, it's time we head back and half-way through, it drizzles and rain! well, after that we went to play bowling and i scored 56.. crapppy. oh well, that's likely all.

i just wanna say this day is just as good as last year's. really thanks to those who accompanied me today and especially kris as i must say she did most of the work. =D

yet again, slacking at home.. i guess i have to take the initiative to do as many things as possible..

did some workout today, thanks to a website for motivating me.. but sigh, should have started in november instead - my body is hella weak and aches all over.

14/01/08 which is tml and there comes the expiry date for my ez-link card.. there's like $3 in it =.=' . buying an ez-link card wont be cheap, so i guess i wont be able to go anywhere for the time being..

the weather has been thru and fro these few days, changing in a split second. well, this is one of the pic i've taken today when the dusk clouds came.

speaking of computers.. i was browsing the web and came across this website http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/?p=1132 . and it is talking about

Vista sucks - reality or perception

obviously it is a perception. whoever say vista sucks is a reality - i tell ya, your computer sucks and u do not know how vista operates. that's it.

the vista im using operates just like it operates as Windows XP. all the frames per second in games has never decreased as compared to Windows XP for me. all smooth and well without any issues. "i have no complaints with it."

so, that is what i can say about Vista. people will like Vista one day just like XP. (for when the time 2000 vs XP)

anyways, here's my Vista Windows Experience Index
playing badminton, playing pool and going out with friends is the best i can do to freak out from the boredom i have. but one question i have in mind for myself:

how boring can i be?


i just feel that im really someone who has the bore factor and i think it's hard to break it out. i only listen to my own melodic trance on the earphone, ignoring whatever topics there is. sigh, i am just someone who only talks about computer and computer and computer... nothing else. so how can that question be answered and solved..?

i think that being in the group is always giving me the "off topic" sense. they talk about their problems and i cant even say something to help - best solution is to ignore. . .

Tuesday, January 1, 2008

once again, i find no point in having this blog.. as it seems that im the only one visiting my own blog. lol.

anyways, happy new year to everyone. life is still as normal.
