Melbourne Trip

Okayy so i finally got the pics from my mom, so im here to blog about my melbourne trip. Beware, long post. We were supposed to take the 9pm flight, so we left house at..5pm? I think. Did the usual checking in and stuff. My mom saw that our seats are at 59 EFGH, and she was so pissed that its gonna be the seats at the very back, where we have to endure the smell of the toilets and the heat of the engines (had a bad experience once), but turned out, it wasnt the last. Plane was really warm, we just thought the air con was not turned on, since a lot of ppl are not on board yet. BUT WE WERE WRONG. After waiting like 15 mins, the plane captain told us that the air con got problem, need to wait for engineers to come and fix. There were also no other available planes, so we had to endure the warm conditions for one whole freaking hour. ZOMG.

Reached Melbourne the next day in the morning. The time there is 3 hours ahead of singapore time. After waiting ages for our whole tour group to gather (26 ppl, including my family), we finally left to tour around. We didnt head to hotel straight, cos the plane delayed everything, and we didnt have much time left. We took a coach, got to know our driver Nick, our tour guide Nancy, and the rest of the group. After travelling for like 1 hour+, we arrived at Ballarat Wildlife Park.

Me and my bro.

We had close contact with animals like Kangaroo, Koalas, Echidnas, Wombats, Eagles, but mostly Kangaroos since they are everywhere. Also saw many snakes and crocodiles.

Me feeding a Kangaroo. The very first thing we saw after we entered. Everyone was afraid of touching it, so i went to touch it first, and everyone else followed. The lil kangaroo is so cute. HAHAHA.

My family with a Koala. I wanted to carry it, but the guide said there's a national law that normal ppl are not supposed to hug them. =/ There were 2 more koalas on a tree branch, but they were not in the mood for phototaking, kept looking away, so they arent in this pic. xD

Me with wombats. OWN UP! Whoever's thinking that wombat is a type of bat. LOL. They're all sleeping, and dont seem to wake up even when so many ppl are touching them. I bet they wont even know if they got raped. =x Anyway, it was really funny, cos they were covered by some metal wall at first, so nothing could be seen. When the guide opened the door, this small lil girl saw the wombats and started crying. HAHAHA.

We didnt take pics for other animals. But the entire tour around the wildlife park was FUN. The animals are so cute and friendly. I seriously dont mind working there with the animals, gonna be fun. Anyway, we went to the Great Ocean Road next. Supposed to have fish and chips there for lunch, but we were way behind time, so we just stopped somewhere are ate Macdonalds. LOL. It's crazy, beef burgers are much cheaper than chicken burgers there. Was quite excited at first, cos there're a few burgers that are not seen in Singapore, like the triple cheeseburger, and the double beef and bacon burger. I had the double beef and bacon burger and... -.- It's just a double cheeseburger, with a layer of bacon on top. And i've nvr liked mac's fries, so dam salty. I always remove the salt before eating them, which takes a great deal of effort, and always results in the table being salty. Oh and they had a national law that people are supposed to clear their own tray after eating, there arent any workers to help you clear your tray. Good place to cultivate good habits. Hahaha.

Anyway, after another 1hr+ ride, we reached the Great Ocean Road. Our tour guide was hilarious. Her chinese is pathetic, she didnt know how to say 12 wen2 tu2(apostles), and kept saying 12 sheng1 xiao4(zodiac). HAHAHA. The air there was really fresh, though i couldnt really breathe well with my flu. And the scenery was beautiful, the great ocean. Zomg.

Me and family, with the broken london bridge behind. Whoever took geog before will know what happened to that bridge. Story goes that 2 ppl were stranded on the lonely piece of rock when the bridge broke, and a helicopter had to be brought in to rescue them.

My mum, bro and myself, with the great horizon behind.

Family, with the apostles behind. Supposed to have 12, 5 eroded, and only left with 7. But only can see 3 in this pic.

Okayy actually got a few more pics here, but lazy to upload. So after this, we went to eat dinner! Zomg buffet, and a lot of stuff are beef. My mom and bro had a hard time, cos they dont like beef. But i loved it, and ate so much. =/ And we went to our hotel. Didnt stay at melbourne city that night, stayed in some hotel in Ballarat. Stupid, we reached the hotel, found out another tour group from China took our rooms, so we didnt have rooms although we booked it. The hotel staff didnt even check whether the names of the ppl and number of ppl match, they just saw that china group was quite big, and just gave them the room. -.- Nancy sorted things out somehow, and we went to our rooms.

Next day morning, had buffet for breakfast, so ate a lot again. We then went to Murrays Lookout. Great view.

Can see all the little houses from there. But theres nothing much other than the scenery. So we went on to Geelong to the strawberry farm! We were given this plastic container to pick as many strawberries as we want, but we have to be able to close the cover, if not have to pay more. Also, we're not allowed to eat while picking the strawberries. But nobody cares actually, there isnt any strict surveillance, so our tour guide was telling us to pick one, eat two. HAHAHA.

Mom, bro and me with the strawberries we picked, and the farm behind. OWN UP! Whoever thought strawberries grow on tall trees. HAHAHA. The strawberries are really BIG and RED and taste so NICE. But my container was too full, and i got caught. Or rather, the person just called me to a station to pay extra. I just took out one strawberry, popped it in my mouth, and showed the person that mine can cover, so i didnt have to pay extra. LOL. Then we were provided with strawberry ice cream after all that picking. Wasnt exactly fantastic, but its free ice-cream! Im like my dad, ice cream lover. =)

We were actually given one whole hour to pick the strawberries, but all of us finished it within 20 minutes. We had free time, so the tour guide brought us to an apple farm next! No, no picking of apples, just there to take a look.

Look at the apples, so SMALL. Want to pick also cannot. Hahaha. Its not the season, i think, or the staff picked all the big ones already. They also had a cherry farm, but its not accessible by car, and its 1km WALK away, so we didnt go. But the staff there gave us free samples of cherries. Zomg they're so big and sweet!

We went to the Ashcombe National Park afterwards. No, not more animals, it's plants this time. There are so many flowers in there, but mostly lavenders. There's a lavender maze, a rose maze, and a high hedge maze. It's really a maze, have to walk around to find the way out. But was quite easy to get out, no kick. HAHAHA.

Lavender maze. My bro was kinda scared to stand there, cos there are SO MANY bees around. Like really really a lot! Ohh i forgot to mention. Now is houseflies season, so there are A LOT of houseflies around. They just stay on your shirt and fly around your face, so irritating. =/

At night, we went to philip island! Went to a chocolate factory, but workers all stop work already. Go there only see machines. o.o Bought some chocolate lar, but didnt buy a lot, cos my dad dont want give my mum money. LOL. Andd we went to the penguin island afterwards! We're supposed to camp around in this sea shore, and wait for the penguins to come back from fishing. Had to wait till nightfall, which is like 9pm cos of daylight savings. And the penguins came back from the sea! They're really small, like only 30+cm, and cute. They build their home, small lil caves, on a small hill. The penguins will return in groups, like 7~10 per group. They will come to shore and swim back to sea while waiting for the whole group to come. Then 1 will stay behind to wait for another group while the rest go home. I bet they're really muscular, climbing hills to go home everyday. But no pictures though, cos at night, need flash to take picture. But no flash allowed, cos may blind the penguins.

Okayy im quite tired from blogging, will blog more tmr or something. xD

Im back in singapore. But i'll prolly blog about my melbourne trip after i get pictures from my mum's cam.

Its easy if you do it right

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY MAN UTD WON THE FIFA CLUB WORLD CUPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!! WAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA Zomg im dam glad i can watch this match before i leave for melbourne tmr. 1-0 with man utd winning LDU Quito, rooney scored the goal. I missed half of the first half cos my family wanted to go out for dinner. But YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! Anyway, my b'dae ytd. Had bbq and stayover at th's house on friday/ytd. Yes yes, bbq again. Having 3 bbqs in one week is crazy, my kidneys are prolly going chao ta. But i doubt im gonna have another bbq anytime soon, which is good. TH's bbq pit didnt need charcoal, so i didnt need to fan the flames. LUCKY. But i did quite a lot of cooking, while the guys played bball on PS3. We played the real bball for a while, played mahjong, watched real bball, etc. I only went to slp at 5+..but didnt exactly slp much. I woke up a lot of times. I didnt lie down to slp, there wasnt space on the sofa, so i sat on the chair and slept. xD Left th's house at 10+, reached home at 11.10, and i went straight to slp. I skipped lunch cos i was slping. Woke up, dressed up, and went to meet rowena at vivo! LONG LONG time since i went out with her, like more than half a year. Did some shopping and some catching up. Was good spending time with her, 'cept i was still really tired -.- And she baked..uhh not reli cookies, mini cakes?.. for me! Only second time i get to eat something she baked, first was during valentines =) THANKS RO!! You spent your time with me during my b'dae last year, you did the same this year. Im reli thankful, and the mini cakes were nice =) Also special thanks to EMO CHEN! My emo fam daughter! =) Silly girl, was the first to send me a happy b'dae msg, but was disappointed when i told her she wasnt the first to wish me happy b'dae. So she sent me an offline msg on msn saying happy b'dae(though i didnt receive it o.o ), so that she'll be the first to wish me happy b'dae on computer as well. HAHAHAH. THANKS you silly girl! =) Ohh and pearlynn sent me a happy b'dae msg too, which was a pleasant surprise, cos it's been years since i last received a sms from her xD Shelvi sent me a msg from Indonesia as well. =) HAHAHA my conversation with my mum was dam funny just now. I was blowing my nose cos my flu hasnt exactly recovered, so my mom came in and ask me 'yao bu yao zai chi yi ci yao' (want to eat medicine anot?), and i misunderstood it (cos i was listening to music on my comp) as 'yao bu yao chi yi dian cheese?' (want to eat some cheese?) HAHAHAHHAHAHA. Okayy so im going overseas tmr, melbourne. Wont be back till saturday night i think. So yea, i wont be celebrating x'mas in singapore. My blog's gonna be dead for one week. Oh and i realised, i actually have quite a few loyal readers, but so few ppl tag my tagboard -.-

Happy birthday to Hitsugaya(Bleach) and myself =) Shall update more tmr or something. I seriously need slp -.-

Tagged by Christine. xD The rules and regulations: 1. Each player of this game starts off with 10 weird things/habits/little known facts about themself. 2. People who get tagged need to write their own 10 weird things/habits/little known facts. 3. At the end, player needs to choose 10 people to be tagged and list their names. 4. No tags back! 10 weird things/habits/little known facts about me. 1. I speak real slowly, but I love to rap, both english and chinese songs. (Eminem for the win!) 2. I've been mischievous since primary school. I ran away from school during primary 3 because I didnt do my homework. Teacher made me stay for detention, I stayed for 5 mins, and ran home when my teacher wasnt looking. 3. I got 3 frens (wankee,weiyao,xuexuan) who were in the same class as me during pri 1/2, after which i moved house/school. We were back in the same class during sec 1/2. HAHAHA. 4. I left jurong pri sch end of pri 2, so there was a free spot in my class during pri 3. Alderic took that place, we ended up in the same class for the entire sec sch life. =) 5. Something serious happened to me last year april, and I had to go to police headquarters to give a statement. The issue got me emo for many many months. Bro. Paul gave me the permission to just walk out of class without explaining reason to teachers. Till now, the whole sch only Bro.Paul and Mr. Michael Tan knows about it, together with around 2 of my frens. I dont really wanna talk about it, so dont ask me about it. =) 6. I'm sorta an animal activist, or maybe just an animal lover. There was once Mr Chan showed an animal abuse video during GP lesson, and I cried. Thing is, there wasnt even much animal cruelty in that video. 7. I go vegetarian for a few days every month because I feel guilty for eating meat. 8. I was really really FAT when i was young because ppl from china believe in having a fat and chubby son. My maternal grandma stayed in singapore when i was young, made rice dumplings for me everyday -.- 9. I had an injection on my butt a few years ago, not because of anything serious. Only cos' of a fever. LOL. This is how doctors in China do their stuff i guess. 10. I live in a family of smart people, but im not smart myself. My dad completed his Masters degree in Imperial University(the...6th best university in the world?), and now both my parents are scientists/researchers in A*Star, with my dad majoring in physics and my mum in chemistry. My younger bro thrashed me in PSLE, he got 267(i think) and i only got 240. He's now in Hwa Chong Institution with all his grades A1, and thinking of majoring in Biology. Talk about science family -.- The 10 people: Not tagging anyone. Too lazy to think of names.

It's funny, everyone's celebrating my b'dae in advance, so i dont reli have plans on my b'dae itself. LOL. Okayy lar, im going out in evening/night, but i'll be totally free in the day. x.x Supposed to have outing with first intake class today, but couldnt go =/ BBQ tmr with bang bang ppl, then bbq on friday with the guys, b'dae on sat, sunday stay home slp, monday go melbourne! Zomg and i havent fully recovered fully from my flu/cough/sore throat. Unreal, its been so long since im sick for so long. The last time was around half a year ago. Had high fever, then burned down to fever for a week. Then it burned up to high fever again, and down to fever for another week. So i was sick for 2 weeks then. LOL. Anyway, im confused. On your b'dae, are u supposed to treat ppl? or are ppl supposed to treat u?

This is what will be

BBQ on friday. Ate quite a lot of my otah. YAY. But i already had a terrible sore throat before bbq, eating bbq food made it worse. I almost lost my voice. =/ Most of the guys there didnt drink, so the beer was quite wasted. I downed 2 cans, while a few ppl drank another one. Surprising things is, jin an ask me whether got wine. LOL. Funny, guys nvr drink, but a girl ask me got wine anot. We didnt buy, so i just went home and took a bottle of red wine. Dad didnt let me take the Hennessy, scared get drunk -.- Then we couldnt reli finish the food, so i called my bro down to help. HAHAH. Went back my house after lights blacked out and ate the cake. The girls and zhao long had to leave earlier, scared miss the last bus. While the others stayed over at my house. The guys and my bro played cards while joshua and i played guitar hero. Then when everyone bathe finish, we played mahjong. Didnt play money lar, we werent exactly sure how to count. I was on a losing streak at first, nvr win at all. But i managed to win 3 in the end lar, out of what..about 10 games? lol. Then watched movies, stupid videos on youtube, before everyone fell aslp at 4am. xD I only slept a while though, was reli sleepy. So i just played my comp while they slept. It's crazy, joshua and eugene sleep talks, and joshua snores quite loudly. Woke up, my dad bought dou4 jiang1 you2 tiao2 for our breakfast. Then we watched another movie before everyone left. I plan forgotten that it was my mum's b'dae, until my bro sms-ed me. Just the usual celebrations, go out for dinner, come back eat cake. My throat is still bad, my voice isnt exactly back, and my flu isnt exactly gone. Stupid lar. Oh well. I wanna buy x'mas presents for people, but i wont be in singapore during x'mas, and i duno when i'll get to meet them. =/ I got to come up with a plan fast, im going melbourne soon!

Feeling better, but still sick. =/ Well, at least im not shivering anymore lol. So im here to blog! Spent today out with ivan buying bbq stuff for tmr. Spent total around 160 bucks. And bought A LOT of otah! Zomg i love otah man! I hope I get well by tmr so that i got appetite to eat. Didnt feel like eating anything at all today. Blehh. Anyway, we had our basketball match yesterday, against BK's class in JJC, together with 2 other class ppl. Uhh overall satisfactory performance I guess. 'Cept the 3rd quarter was kinda disappointing. I played the first quarter, and it ended with us leading 28-8. I played second quarter, and it ended with us leading 52-15. I didnt play the third quarter, and the other team managed to catch up a lil bit, ending with 58-28. I played the last quarter, and it ended with us leading 85-35. Yes yes, im just trying to show off how much of a difference I make. LOL. Im not the top scorer, prolly the second top scorer. I wasnt counting how much I scored, but cyril and th's bro said it was around 24/26 points. JH was the top scorer, with duno how many points. But jh didnt score at all, or maybe just one ball, during the 3rd quarter, cos I wasnt there to support him. So much for top scorer, I hope he doesnt get complacent with this match. *AHEM* But yea, I prolly have the best statistics in the match lar- steals, rebounds, etc. =p The first quarter was quite weird, cos after 10 mins of play, kok wei banged his head against the pole, and his head was bleeding. So we had to delay the remaining 2 mins left for the quarter, till he went to see doctor and come back. xD A few words to those in my gang who reads my blog: @bro(gab): I know you're kinda disappointed with your performance ytd, but hey! Everyone has their on/off form, you just happened to be slightly off form ytd, so dont worry too much about it. =) @th: You played really well ytd, 'cept your defense was sloppy during the starting few mins. But it was fantastic after I told you to pressure more. Maybe work on your speed a bit? I hardly see your face during fast breaks xD Oh help me tell your bro that he played well, dont worry so much about how he could've played better. His 3-points were amazing, but work more on playing as a team? =) @jh: Grats on being top scorer. I mean it. But dont get complacent. Forget about the overall score, since we were already expecting to thrash them even before the match started. Focus on how you can prevent something like the 3rd quarter from happening again. @bk: Seriously, I dont believe you nvr appear offline lar. It's been YEARS since i last saw you on msn, though I see you quite often on AO. Stop with that 'i quit le' crap lar, just come and join us for bball! Your passes are one of the best, and you got great stamina! There's only about more than 3 weeks till you go NS, so join us for a game next time okay? So ytd's match is probably the last official 5v5 match we have before we go NS. We started out playing bball together since sec2, with only me and gab having experience then. It was easy for me and gab to win a 2v3 match back then, but its impossible now. Everyone in this team has improved so much. It's a pity we only managed to play 2 official 5v5 matches all these years. But oh well, we won the hamsters match 101-34 back in sec4, then won this match 85-35. Let's go thrash more teams after we're out from NS. HAHAHA. =D Tmr's bbq gonna have around 15 ppl, I hope it doesnt rain, if not the ppl will have no place to sit o.o Haii im so gonna get fat this hols. BBQ at my place tmr to celebrate my b'dae in advance, BBQ at th's place next friday to celebrate my b'dae one day in advance, probably another BBQ on the 21st with Shooting Club to celebrate clas's bdae and my belated b'dae. Then im going to Melbourne on 22nd for around one week, most prolly gonna go there da4 chi1 da4 he1. Then after me,th,bk are back from overseas, we're gonna have chocolate buffet at fullerton. ZOMG how not to get fat you tell me =/

Emergency

Sick. I never on air con, im wearing jacket, im wearing long pants, and im shivering -.- It was only a terrible sore throat since yesterday, duno how it got so bad. Will prolly update about the basketball match we had today, tomorrow, if im feeling better. Good thing i fell sick only AFTER the match. =/

What I was trying to do

ECP with my gang of guys yesterday! Been so long since i went there with them. Well...not exactly, about half a year? HAH but its been a long time since i rollerbladed. Met at Parkway around noon, and the guys were dam funny. I was about to leave house, gab sms-ed me to bring a pair of socks for him, so I did. While walking to the bus stop to meet yj, BK sms me to bring a pair of socks for him too. I didnt, cos its too far to go home and take O.O I reach bus stop, and yj say he didnt bring socks either. HAHAHAH.

Reach there, had lunch and they went to rent rollerblades. I brought my own =p Virgin experience for yj, 2nd time for bk and jh. BK was (jokingly) boasting how good he is at rollerblading, and how hes gonna teach everyone else. But end up, he couldnt even blade on his own for the starting 15/20 mins. I had to hold him for so long, waiting for him to get used to rollerblading again. Was quite troublesome to hold him sideways, so I was rollerblading backwards in front of him and holding him. Im getting better at rollerblading backwards, feels more comfortable, and I can accelerate faster, compared to last time. But it was sunday, so many ppl, I have to stop every 10 seconds of rollerblading backwards or else i will knock into ppl. Hmm so yea, then I went to look after yj after a while. YJ blades well, for a virgin experience, a very fast learner. Prolly cos gab is a good teacher. HAHAHA. We went quite far down, and jh fell down a lot of times, whenever there are down 'slopes'. YJ had a clean record of not falling down, until jh and bk fall down in front of him. He got distracted, and fell down..like..duno how many times. BK didnt exactly fall, grabbed onto the fence when he ALMOST fell. Tzehow is an experienced blader, but still fell down and hurt his knee. =/ Gab and I didnt fall. Hahaha. We've got many years of experience after all. =p

Yong Jian and me, with bk behind =p No, yongjian's not from cjc, im not from njc. We just bought a set of pe shirt for each other. HAHAHA.

We went to play frisbee after that. I've gotten quite rusty, considering I havent played it for so long. But im still better than the other guys there lar. HAHAHA =x JH didnt play much, cos he doesnt reli know how to throw. Andd play halfway...we dunked JH into the sea! Not the first one to get into the sea, cos th went into the sea by himself while we were playing frisbee. LOL. But yeaa, after dunking jh, i conveniently threw bk into the sea as well. HAHAHA. Then gab th and i planned it such that gab will pass the frisbee to yj, but throw far far. While yj was picking up the frisbee, we grabbed him and dunked him in too! So yeaa, played dodge ball in the sea and all. But i went to shore not long after cos my toes were getting cramp -.- Sat there, talked about AO with gab, discussed about bball with th gab and jh. Then they went into the sea again to wrestle. While i lay down there to sun tan. By the time i got up, my ball was gone. Floated somewhere very far away. LOL. But its okay lar, found that ball while i was at white sands resort, just a lousy ball.

At duno what time, we went to bathe. YJ bathed first cos originally he had to leave for dinner with his family. But he still stayed for dinner with us in the end. Quite dumb, so many ppl in there, I was lazy to queue, so i used the tap to bathe. HAHAHA. Pay 50 cents just to use the tap is quite stupid -.- Oh well, we had dinner at Pastamania, bought milk tea at 7-11 and homed. =)

Pic we took. JH's not in there, cos he dun wan take out his shirt -.- Planned to take a photo with shirt on, but we forgot after dinner. HAHAHA. From left: Yong Jian, Kai, Boon Keong, Tzehow, Gabriel. I should dedicate a whole post to introduce my gang of guys some time soon. Cos i always write 'my gang of guys' in my posts. LOL.

Basketball match with BK's class people on wed. We're most prolly gonna thrash them, according to what bk and gab say, so th and i were thinking prolly treat it as a normal training session. =x Thursday going out with ivan, prolly zhao long too, to buy the bbq stuff and all. Then friday bbq. Ivan managed to call Mrs Renee Lee, my physics teacher, to come along. O.O I was only asking whether should call anot, then ivan help me settle already -.- Prolly my first time got teacher come celebrate b'dae for me, hahaha. But since she's coming already, should i call Ms Wang and Mr Pang along?? o.o Okayy gotta contact my class ppl the details about the bbq..

Never knowing, what could have been

Bball today, so many people at the court. Commonwealth juniors were there. I only played 1.5 matches, before i sprained my ankle....AGAIN. Okay lar, first time sprain this year...i think? Sec 4 was bad, sprain 4 times, once per term. LOL. This sprain isnt reli tt bad, i could run and jump like after 20 mins of rest? Still pain lar of course. Zomg rollerblading at ecp tmr. I hope my ankle is well enough for me to blade tmr. Still gotta teach yongjian how to blade. AND PLEASE OMG DO NOT RAIN TMR! I'm gonna hide in a corner and cry for a few days if it rains tmr -.- Okay actually not so bad lar. HAHAHA. But yea, please no rain, dont be too sunny too. IM SO PICKY! Okay i hope someone from the weather forecast stations sees this and fulfil my wish. Thanks.

All the words left unspoken

My first time waking up past 8am today! Zomg i duno why, i've been waking up lastest 7.30am the last few months, and today i woke up at 8.15am. It's normally raining when i wake up so late, but this morning was sunny and bright! Funny. But its okay lar, my latest-wake-up-time-record is not broken yet, 8.30am. HAHAHA. Okay it sounds crazy, but i cant slp till noon like most other ppl can. My family have always been early-wakers. I wonder how it feels to slp 12 hours a day, and wake up at noon o.o Been slacking these last few days, tired. But tmr going bball, sunday going ecp with the guys. And yj's coming along on sunday! LONG LONG time since i met him. But he doesnt know how to rollerblade, so im gonna have to teach him. Zomg, i've taught quite a few ppl already. YJ's prolly gonna be the 5th one. I was teaching weiting and weiming last time we went out for 1st intake outing. Then I taught bk and jh the last time we went ecp. O.O I'm gonna be quite busy next week. Gotta arrange with ivan and zhao long go buy bbq stuff, and prolly plan activities for that day? BBQ's on friday, around...15+- ppl coming? Got a few ppl not confirm yet. Hahaha. Then the guys were saying next week go sentosa play beach volleyball! I duno if i can, but i wanna play! =(

So now it's time to leave

Stayover at gab's on friday/saturday. I went there earlier for gab and jh to play guitar hero! Hah as expected, bro played reli well, much better than me o.o Oh and i took a pic!

Jh playing guitar hero! hahaha. The other guys met us at JP, had subway for dinner, bought alcohol. I saw something...someone... I hope I saw wrong. Anyway, back at gab's house, we went to play bball. Long long long time since i played with my gang of guys. Court was small, but I enjoyed thrashing tzehow and his team. LOL. Went back, we thought the drinks werent enough, so gab,bk,jk went to buy more drinks, while th,jh,tl and me stayed to play 'I never', with alcohol as forfeit. The sakae wasn't strong at all, though it wrote there 11%, and the bottle was reli small, so we finished the bottle quite quickly. We then played it with beer. Hah then th and i were thinking of ways to sabo jh. TH went: " I never poke ppl with a G2 pen before" and I went "I never put my head while doing a lay-up" HAHAHA. Okay, I'm a sinful guy, so I downed the most beer there, like..2.5 cans? We finished that carton of 6 beers by then, so we stopped. But jh was amazing. Only a bit of sakae, and ONE can of beer, and HE GOT HIGH. Face and whole body was reallyyyyyyyyyyyy red, and he was speaking gibberish all the time. HAHAHA. His words and actions are too funny. Gab then took out the bottle of vodka, and we started mixing it with raspberry juice o.o It was okay lar, I didnt reli like the taste though, so I only drank a bit of that. Watched AVP2 and What Happens in Vegas. We then decided to go down to the pool and walk walk, tl stayed behind to bathe and slp. Zomg Lakeshore's pool is so nice and big. Gab, th and i went to soak in the Jaccuzzi/Spa/Hot Spring whatever that is. Water was warm, and I slept in there for a few mins. HAHAHA. After getting back to gab's house, tl was already slping, then jh and cyril went to slp as well. UNGLAM PICS. Cyril and JH. Can see JH's face is still quite red.

TL =p

So jk,bk, gab and i stayed up to play guitar hero. But jk went to slp at..4+am? He slept in gab's room, so i didnt manage to take an unglam pic =/ So while the guys were slping, gab was playing guitar hero, bk was playing monster hunter, and I was looking for a mmorpg to play! Found quite a nice one, did some in-depth research, and the 3 of us are playing it currently! Shall keep the name a secret, in case JH sees this, starts playing and fails his exams LOL.

So in the morning, after waking up, we went to eat macs for breakfast. My first time eating the Mega burger. Was okay lar, using pancakes as the bread for burger is quite creative. After that, some guys left. Cyril, tl, gab and I went back to watch The Reaping. Thought it was a horror movie, but apparently its not. Gab fell aslp halfway, I was falling aslp at the starting cos it was reli boring. But I stayed up cos it got exciting in the end. HAHAH. Story had a twist to it, but I didn't reli like it lar. Andd sooo, we went home after that! I didnt slp after reaching home, was wide awake. Supposed to meet emo on msn at night, I only went online at 11+pm, and she wasnt on! She only came online at like..12am? Didnt reli talk to her, cos I was reli tired by then, and went to slp xD Sorry emo!

So I just came back from Downtown East there. Stayed at Costa Sands Resort with my family. Sudden decision for this family outing, cos my dad is normally very busy when his boss is around. But his boss was overseas these 2 days, so my dad took this chance to take leave. LOL. Didnt reli do much there? Monday go there played Wild Wild Wet. Zomg we saw Adrian Pang, the mediacorp artiste, while queuing up for the tickets. He looks older than on tv =x Wild Wild Wet...wasnt reli fun. Lol. Slides and everything, long time since I played them, but nothing exciting. At night, had dinner at his restaurant called Just Acia. Not bad, a meal for 11~13 bucks, includes free flow drink (mocha,latte,milo,coffee,lemonade,peach tea,mountain dew,sprite,coke), and free flow ice-cream (chocolate,coffee,corn,vanilla,strawberry, and something else). But we didnt even eat much, cos we had to rush for the 7pm movie. There werent anything nice to watch, so we just went to watch City of Embers. Zomg this is my first time watching movie ever since Red Cliff came out, which is like many months back. The movie wasnt reli nice, very National Treasure like, 'cept National Treasure they go through all those adventures to find treasure...City of Embers go through a lot to find...sunrise. LOL.

Tuesday morning we just went cycling/roller blading. Long long time since I rollerbladed. My bro's rollerblades broke, as in 2 straps broke. Can't be blamed I guess, he's been using those blades since primary school. LOL. After which we had SuperDog for lunch, and homed. I wanted to blog last night, but i was quite lazy =x

I should rest well these few days, been running around so much. Sat may have bball with my guys again, sunday going ECP rollerblade with those guys again. LOL.

Brookstone

Gonna stay over at White Sands Resort with my family today and tmr. Shall blog about the stayover at gab's after im back =)

I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you

Okay, I shall stop playing guitar hero for now. I've been playing the whole of last night, and today. I don't wanna go back to being a game addict like I was in sec 2/3. Thoughts of secondary sch life suddenly popped up while I was playing guitar hero just now, so I'm here to do some...reflections? Shall start with sec 2. I was a pure slacker. Basketball almost everyday after school, then go home play gunbound. I dont do homework, I sleep during lessons, I pon CCAs. Life was crazy back then. Everyday, the first thing I do after reaching school is to borrow homework from shelvi to copy, and I dont absorb anything at all. So my results were nonsense. Was voted by classmates to be in council, but Mrs Margaret Loh didnt want to write a testimonial for me since I was such a bad student. She still wrote 2 sentences in the end, but I just quit being in council, since I don't really see any point. My math results were so bad that I had to take a retest (on my birthday). If I failed, I wont be allowed to take Add. Math, good thing I passed. But my results were just as crap, and my cohort ranking was 200+ out of around 240 students. Little wonder why I went to 4/6, the worst express class in school. Then in sec 3, there weren't really any major exams to work for. So I didnt have any motivation to study. Again, I didnt do homework, reach home whole day play CO. So of course, I didnt do well for exams as well. I had L1R5 of 31 points by end of sec 3, which was really pathetic. The school held this meeting for those with poor results, brought us together, and gave a motivational talk. We were then made to set targets for our results for O levels. I remember clearly that the teacher in charge of looking at my targets was Mr Leong, HOD of math, that six finger freak. I set targets of A1 for both math, i forgot the other targets, but I was aiming for below 10 points. Mr Leong looked at my results, "wah, so ambitious ar." and started laughing. He then 'helped' me lower my targets to make it L1R5 15 points. Sec 4 started, and I started out...too enthusiastic, like what jj said. I was appointed phy rep, chem rep, chi rep -.- I sat at the front row, knowing that I'll focus better in front. Even though I started out working quite hard since beginning of year, my results were not good. I had L1R5 of 25 points at sec 4 mid-year. I then stayed back in school to study everyday, then stay for night study with weijie every night. The canteen wasnt really a conducive place to study, but it was better than staying at home. It's sad to say this, but it was exactly because Mrs Margaret Loh and Mr Leong looked down on me, that motivated me to study. Well, at least part of the motivation. I started aiming high, competing with yongjian(guy from best class in my sch) during prelims. Of course, I got thrashed. I got 14 points for prelims. Mrs Yip, our vice principal, was showing my class the results of our seniors, and she showed me that people who got 14 points during prelims could get 9 points for O's, and she challenged me to do the same. Sure enough, I got 9 points for O's, and was the only person in my class who got single digit L1R5 (before cca points deduction,etc). My whole class did relatively well, and Mrs Yip was full of praises for my class. Well...from 31 points to 9 points in one year, its little wonder I received the good progress award. LOL. Okayy, this is prolly my first emo post in this blog. I'm not gonna write another emo one anytime soon. Stayover at bro's house tmr with my gang of guys.. ROCK AND ROLL ALL NIGHT. I'm gonna bring my guitar hero there for bro to play. This sounds gay, but meeting this group of guys was one of the best things that ever happened to me. =)

Same old song and dance

Yes yes, so i've been playing guitar hero all this while! But needa take frequent breaks, my eyes and fingers get tired easily o.o Uhh I completed easy difficulty before going to slp last night. Most songs were quite easy, except one. It's soooooooo freaking difficult that I had to practice it a lot of times before I finally completed the song (with luck). Went to gamefaqs to check, and the guide also say its supposed to be one of the hardest songs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUDWLp1yIWw Go check it out and see how crazy the song is -.- But oh well, I still managed to complete it. I tried again today, and couldnt complete it again. zZz.. Anyway, I played a bit this morning too, went on to medium difficulty, still getting used to the new 4-button play. But it's okay I guess, completed 11 songs already. HAHAHA. The boss battles are fun, quite different from the guitar duels in my DS. But its funny how i have to tilt the guitar vertically up to use the items and activate star power. I do it with so huge movements, so much my parents thought i was crazy. HAHAHA. Andd im getting used to the slight lag, 'cept the notes suddenly speed up for a while after i activate star power, quite irritating. But overall, its FUNNNNNNNNNNNN. Ohh and i went to buy a bonus song using the in-game cash, and they got the remix for a song that mel introduced me! The 'fuck condoms, pre-marital sex is the shit!' song by fall of troy. HAHAHA. I love the game! =D @bro: I'll go to your house earlier tmr! Like morning! So you can play! @mel: When did u say u're going overseas again?? I can lend you when I'm away in Melbourne! But that's if you're not overseas at that time o.o

I'm gonna rock & roll all night!

Ok today..I FINALLY BOUGHT MY PC GUITAR HERO!!!!!!!!!

Zomg i tell u, it wasnt easy finding it at all. I first went to Funan Digitalife mall. I walked up and down twice, asking every electronics store whether they sell pc guitar hero. Absolutely no stores in the whole big building sold pc guitar hero. -.- There were lots of 'guitar hero' on display, but all of them were for Xbox360/PS3/Wii. I got so excited when i walked past a store that had 'Guitar Hero III Legends of Rock' on display. I went in to take a look, it was written 'for Playstation 3' -.- Me being desperate to get pc guitar hero, went down to sim lim to take a look. I was quite reluctant to go there at first, cos so messy, and there are always news of store vendors scamming their customers. But i was desperate, so oh well. Went there, asked every store from bottom up. When i reach 3rd floor, FINALLY there was a store selling pc guitar hero. But was selling for 160SGD, 10 bucks more than what i saw at IMM a few weeks back. So I continued going up some more, but there were NO more stores selling pc guitar hero! So i quickly went back to the store on the 3rd floor to get the one and only left. When i reach the store, there were 2 guys looking at it. Silly me quickly took up the guitar hero and went to the counter. The 2 guys were jus staring at me. HAHAHA. Okayy lar, managed to haggle the price to 150SGD, and I BOUGHT IT. WAHAHAHA.

I was so worried that my laptop cannot play this. Cos I didnt meet the minimum system requirements to play this game O.O They needed 2gb RAM for windows vista, I only got 1gb. They needed at least geforce 7600 graphics card, i only had geforce 7300. LUCKY everything went quite smoothly. I had to change the settings to lousy graphics though, if not will lag. It still lags quite a lot even so, but it's playable lar. I was reading up on the reviews of the game before I bought this, and everyone was saying the difficulty of this game is quite high. Which I agree. Easy difficulty songs here are like medium difficulty songs on my DS -.- But it's only 3 buttons for easy difficulty, so its still quite easy lar. Uhh gameplay's kinda different from my DS, either that or its cos my comp is laggy. I play DS guitar hero, must strum the notes exactly on the dot. Play this one, i need to strum it like 0.2 seconds earlier. But its okay lar, I'm getting the hang of it already =D My laptop screen's kinda small, so i connected my laptop to my tv to play. HAHAHA. I've only completed around 15 songs on easy difficulty. I think i'm gonna complete easy difficulty by tonight, 27 more songs to go. =D

Yes yes, mel and bro(gab), please get jealous. HAHAHA. =x

Staring out into the night, trying to hide the pain

i'M BACK! I wanted to update ytd actually, but i was lazy =x Anyway, BON VOYAGE to EMO my daughter. You won't be seeing this anytime soon, but take care ok, dont fall into the drain again x.x Soo i went back for shooting training today! i didnt want to stay actually, only wanted to give something to someone. but ivan sms me saying he might be early, so i just stayed to train. (and to fill up the empty lanes =x ) I shot pistol today, cos' my left arm's injured, cant really hold the rifle. My first time shooting 60 shots using pistol. Uhh...the shots were crap, but at least i improved! I cant even hit the card last time when i shoot pistol, i just go *biang biang biang* hitting the metal wall behind. But I only had 2 *biangs* out of my 60 shots today! O.O Hah and ms fan and lauren went to the range too. Long time since i last saw them. But still...the attendance was pretty crap cos of ocip. I went back last wednesday, only got what...i forgot the number, but v few ppl. last friday only had 7 ppl. today only got..7 j1s? HAHAHA. Oh well.. Ivan came at 11+..so i went off to ubi avenue with him. Uhh found bbq house which was reli disappointing, then we went to tampines to have lunch. LJS golden deal 4 is a rip off. 3 shrimps + 1 fish and fries for 7.15 -.- Anyway, we went to NTUC after tt to compare the prices for the stuff we're getting for the bbq at my house a few weeks later. Just noted down the differences in prices, and ivan's mum helped do the budgeting. LOL. Total around 120 bucks, not including otah. Okay lar, was expecting it to be higher. HAH. Soo i went to ivan's house after that. Was quite tired, so first thing i did after entering his room was to slp on his bed. HAHAHA. Zomg, i did the same thing when i went to joshua(wong)'s house last year. But joshua and i slept on the same bed last year, ivan didnt slp with me today. IM A SLUT HAHAHAH. Anyway, i went to play bball with him after resting a while. Uhh..didnt reli play much lar. All small kids down there, only like..lower secondary? Anyhow play also thrash them, but i was quite off form today O.O Then it started raining after playing like 1hr+, so i went home. Surprisingly, seng kang isnt reli as far as i thought. lol. So i came home...ate dinner...and wrote a nintendo DS buying guide for Amos. Zomg. He didnt have any knowledge of DS at all, so i wrote quite a long guide and recommended buying places for him. Prices for DS are so cheap now, prolly cos DSi coming out. But im not gonna get the DSi though, a camera isnt reli tt important o.o After eating dinner, i continued downloading my spore game! Uhh considerably amazing download speed. It was constant at around 450kb/s, not bad for my internet plan i think. Andd I finished downloading SPORE! Quite laggy on my comp though, but playable lar. I havent reli started playing yet, I just took a glance at the creatures. ZOMG there are like 1631 creatures available to choose from. I got quite a few eyecandies from the list LOL. Andd i created my first creature!

Meet moo moo boo boo! The first creature that I created! HAHAHA. I like quite a few others, but im lazy to scroll through the long list and take screen shot. o.o I may go back and play later, but i wanna get all 5-stars for my DS guitar hero medium difficulty first -.- around 3 songs to go.

OHH and im gonna stay over at gab (zomg bro it feels weird to call u gab after calling u bro for so many years o.o )'s house with my gang of guys on friday! movie marathon, ice cream, vodka, sakae, dunking jh into the pool WHOOOO shiockness!!

Oh, anyone knows where I can get the tiger sorbet ice cream? The ice cream tt tastes like tiger beer. It used to be available at island creamery, but it wasnt there anymore the last time i went =/

You make me wanna!

I rotted at home today! O.O no plans no nothing, so i stayed home to recycle my remaining pile of notes/books! I even had secondary stuff hidden deep in my cardboard, so i dug them all out, and recycled them! lucky thing my house below got recycle bin, if not reli have to arrange emo fam outing come my house bring the stuff to cjc's odac area, like emo said. HAHAHA. There! Not v clear, but its 7 big bags of notes! HAHAHA. My room's so empty now, barely got pieces of paper, only books xD Andd while digging out all that nonsense, I found my home econs textbook! LOL. I didnt reli like home econs back in lower sec, prolly 'cept the cooking part, so i didnt appreciate that book. But looking at it now, it actually gives a lot of information about nutrition and stuff, so im prolly gonna read it this hols. HAHAHA. Andd i found another thing!

My IPW report back in secondary 2!! HAHAHA. Zomg! Its not just this piece of paper leh, i got the whole report with me! Unreal. I dont reli rmb much, i only rmb jk and i were slackers! most of the stuff were done by yining and ting²! Oops! xD

Okayy so i spent the whole morning clearing stuff, then i went to play basketball with my bro! my bro doesnt know that i know his blog address, but this is quoted from his blog!

"My bro and i went to play basketball at the court near our house, and we saw this gangster guy playing bball with a bunch of kids. Later my bro and i teamed up against him and another secondary school guy and we won, though it was mostly my bro's credit. Somehow i just dont really like gangsters though :/ "

HAHAHA. This is only like what, the second time im playing bball with my bro? he hasnt been playing for quite some time, so uhh..he isnt reli tt good? i havent played for a v long time either, so i deproved quite a lot O.O the match was just..weird. it's a 2on2 match, but it seems like a 1on1 match between me and tt gangster. cos my bro and the other guy dun reli know how to play! Ohh and i was discussing bout bball stuff with my gang of guys last night! or rather this morning past midnight! Gab and th were saying get my bro to join, i dun think its possible, the way hes playing now o.o ZOMG guys i miss going out with u all, i cant wait till weekend to go bball! arrange go out someday this week please xD

Any nice DS games to recommend anyone? Anyone know where got sell cheap(er) pc guitar hero? =/

So I went to sell off my 30 million neopoints! Gave tt guy a discount, only sold him for 250SGD, since he was buying in bulk. Oh wait, i sold him for 252 SGD actually, cos he made me travel all the way to tampines, i collected 2 bucks transport fee from him. HAHAHA. Hmm and im prolly gonna meet up another guy sometime soon to sell my Battleon account. Yes yes, stupid game, but still got people want buy from me.
