hello everyone!
merry christmas to all of you!!
well, getting presents and cards is nice and everything but remember the message from our puppet performance that day, christmas is about Jesus!!:)
well, i've got a cool xmas gift from my parents! it's a new electric guitar! (my old one got spoilt) it's a red les paul guitar, rally brand. $300. not a bad buy i guess. i shall use it the next time i'm playing guitar for PLH. if you thought my old black one looked nice, you'll be blown away by this one too!!!:)
wow can't wait for christmas to come! tmr can go church and give people their cards and gifts and stuff.
i decided to create a facebook account too lol. goodness knows why. nothing better to do then just decided to do one haha. i'm not gonna be very bothered with it cos i'm also not sure what i'm supposed to do with it haha.
well, liverpool are still top of the table at christmas after chelsea and everton drew that night, haha those two useless blue teams. we haven't been top of the table at christmas for quite some time so i guess that's good and it's proving to be a very exciting season for all reds fans!!! i was really so angry that night after the 1-1 draw with arsenal at their homeground cos we were matching them and i felt we should have gone on to win it, which just goes to show how much we've improved under rafa and how the expectation is really growing.
well, i can't think of anything else to say, except merry christmas and God bless us, everyone!

No Holds Barred
yeah the plh no holds barred camp was great!
after the rushed 2 weeks of preparation it turned out ok i guess.
first day actually not much except for the ice-breaker straw tower game and then at night we had the "looking back - 2008" session and the worship.
the worship was great!! almost everyone was jumping man! haha. my dad showed me the video and even ben kee was jumping while playing bass! haha. that means he's super pro man. jump and play at the same time very hard. i'm still working on it with the guitar haha.
woke up the next day feeling really sick. i think cos i didnt eat enough and not enough sleep. prepare until stress lol. felt nauseous and a bit feverish plus bad diarrhoea! i puked twice on the second day. once after breakfast and once after wrestling.
oh yes, the boys had a wrestling match again haha. i still participated even though i was sick. abit nuts but i thought just defend the title lah if not the rest wrestle for nothing lol. there were 6 of us competing. the first 2 in were jeremy and tim leong. 3rd in was jon chien. they pinned tim leong before i came in. i was 4th in, then zek 5th and tim goh 6th. i pinned jeremy then me, jon and tim ganged on zek to pin him first. then jon walked out of the match and i pinned tim to retain my title. haha. so i felt really sick so i skipped lunch and puked in the toilet.
after that was the amazing race. i still went out even though i was sick. i had to come back to church to use the toilet halfway cos i had diarrhoea lol. then went out to meet my group again.
anws at night was the christmas party dinner and we all wore our nice clothes! haha.
i was still feeling sick but i forced myself to eat so i won't have an empty stomach.
we had puppet performance by me, marie and michelle chia. it was ok i think although maybe i think i messed up some parts. we actually didn't rehearse haha.
then also had mime, i hate to put on the makeup. i think i was the only one not smiling for it haha.
well, all in all i think the camp was great and i hope all those who went enjoyed it.
now i'm just resting at home to get well, so i didn't go church today.
oh ya and the whole camp joe, shuan and i were addicted to this song. it's "i'd hate to be you when people find out what this song is about" by mayday parade. we kept playing it haha. i've got the lead parts quite right so can play the solo and riffs though it's not perfect yet. still working on it.:)
ok that's all byebye!

zack is back
yeah i'm back from my holiday!
my family went to kota kinabalu, which is in west malaysia. so we had to take a plane there.
it was pretty fun. got to relax properly.
we went shopping quite a lot. i bought 5 new shirts. 3 is for me to wear. one is for me to give away and one is for me to use as a doormat! hahaha!
we also watched bolt there. the total cost for the 5 of us in singapore dollars was $12! hahaha!! so guys, if u wanna watch cheap movies, go to m'sia! haha. bolt is a nice show btw. quite cool:)
yesterday was also esther's surprise birthday party. it was quite fun. she was really surprised.
well, planning for the PLH christmas retreat is on the way. lots of stuff to do this week. actually our youth comm this year has been operated very much on the basis of efficiency. reasonable results with less effort. haha. very much the way i survive in school. some people call it studying smart. i call it genius. haha just kidding:p
the Hastily Assembled Returns concert was good:)
started with a bang with my songs "eliminated". then "recess" which didn't sound as cool without a lead guitar.
then i went to the drums after playing the guitar.
"lady luck" by YC which some people said was nice.
"get loud" by renyi and "what about now" (daughtry).
then some chinese song which cheang sang.
afterwards was the solo performances.
renyi's one was good. YC's one was good.
"thunder" duet by cheang and renyi not so good. haha:p
then my solo. "don't know". that's the only song i was nervous about playing. but well i guess it turned out ok.
after that was the break where we celebrated cheang's birthday and gave him a taupok.
break over and it was "the moment..." by cheang.
"facade" and "don't call the cops..." by YC.
"baby you don't know what you do to me" by cheang. which i absolutely love playing drums for! actually i like playing drums for alot of our songs. like "facade" and "the moment..." haha.
then i went back to leading my songs for the last two. "crushes of a primary school boy" and ending with "you're no murderer, but you killed me inside".
then there were calls for an encore of my solo song "don't know". so i played it again. i didn't know so many people will like it haha. now it's stuck in some people like renyi's heads and people like M ask me to play it for them again. haha. i should write more songs like that. or maybe people just like acoustic songs. cos some of my acoustic versions of my rock songs are nice too. but these kinda songs need inspiration lah.. yay i like that song:):)
i liked the way we started with "eliminated". sounded so cool! lol.. to me at least..
"recess" needs lead guitar lah.. if not it doesn't sound as nice.
anws, videos better be up soon guys!!! can't wait to see the replay of the whole thing. haha...
we can have another gig next year after a-levels. lol.
yeah anws, that's about it. PLH christmas retreat this friday!! NO HOLDS BARRED!
booyah:)

hello
wow it's been a long time since i last posted. ok where should i start..
i went for my class CIP trip to batam. it was great! so fun haha. we went to paint an orphanage and played with the kids there. reminded me of the times that i went to myanmar and philippines for PLH trip. the kids are cute man. i played quite a bit with the boys. we managed to paint the orphanage and i think we did a pretty good job. then on the last night the guys in my class trashed our hotel room haha! we kept catching each other and did stuff like pour water and smash donuts in each other's faces. lol. in the end the hotel room was super dirty so we had to clean it up first. yeah i loved the batam trip:)
ok then last sunday was GIGS: November Rain! we played "don't forget the lyrics: PLH edition" haha it was quite fun i guess. i was the host for the thing. got quite alot of good feedback. so relieved that it worked out in the end. youth comm did a good job once again:) haha. well when i'm not inside next year it'll be good cos i won't be busy organising the games. but it'll be bad too cos i won't get to decide what fun games we play! haha.
i did my christmas shopping on monday and i bought all the stuff i wanna give to people. then me, shaun and michelle went to joe's house to play football with joe, jeremy and jordan. then joe lost his phone o.O think it was stolen by those people who were near there. then we had dinner and played halo on the xbox. the only person lousier than me was michelle hahaha.
yesterday we went to send huixian off to japan at the airport. it was fun cos we were saying and doing lotsa funny stuff haha.
today had concert practice again. hastily assembled returns concert next tuesday 9 dec at 2pm. if u wanna come just give me a msg. it's at jalan kelichap. (take bus 80 from kovan heartland mall. it's 4 stops away) i think it's gonna be not bad. cheang and renyi told me that lots of their friends have special request for "crushes of a primary school boy". so i get to play 4 of my songs at the concert instead of 3. lol. so i'm taking the first two and last two songs. wow if they like the crappy one on the CRYSIz blog which we recorded at 3am in YC's house then they'll definitely love the live one. haha.
oh ya last night i decided to start a new game on my gameboy for pokemon red version. i'm still using my gameboy colour (which is the oldest type of gameboy lol). since for the month of december i'll have nothing to do now that our trip got cancelled.. i just reached cerulean city (where you're supposed to get the 2nd badge). my pokemon team is now charmeleon, pidgeotto and pikachu. haha.
so for december maybe we'll organise a PLH camp. and maybe some of us will go to the zoo haha! the most just go out with the PLHers and hang out or something. anws i spent all my december allowance on christmas stuff cos i thought we'll be away from 12th-22nd so i won't need to use my money! but now the trip is cancelled i've got no money for those days! lol. if anyone knows where i can work for just two days and can earn about $60 please tell me. anyone's house needs cleaning or something? please ask your parents!! i need money if not i can't go out! and my allowance for this month looks like it's running short. lol. yup...
crap everytime i look at today's date it keeps making me think. i hate not being able to talk to people in person. one for 2 years and one for 8 months. feel like punching someone or something! actually no lah.. i don't feel so violent now. now i feel like doing some other stuff which doesn't have to do with punching. don't bother asking me what this is about. i won't tell you. ok maybe you can still ask me about the second one cos i can still talk about that.
well at least nowadays i'm talking with two of my best friends again.
ok not much else i guess.

steven gerrard week
today went out with shaun, hannah, marie and michelle goh. we met at toa payoh and then dunno what to do so we went all the way to pasir ris. then cos jeremy and jordan were there at their grandma's house so we went there and played xbox! haha. as usual i got really animated and loud while using liverpool on the fifa 07. haha. actually we wanted a picnic but it was too hot so we had a picnic in the house instead haha. a very small one. only got one packet of teddy biscuits and some ice-cream. afterwards we had dinner at burger king and joe came to talk too.
anws this week on the liverpool website is "Steven Gerrard week". cos he's been playing in the liverpool first team for 10 years. since he made his debut against blackburn as an 18-year old all the way til now. there's been alot of talk about whether he's been liverpool's best player ever. for me there's no question about it. although i never got to see players like kenny daglish and kevin keegan play, i'm pretty sure stevieG has been the most complete player ever. he can shoot, pass, tackle, head, etc... he's definitely been the most complete player. you talk about cristiano ronaldo, kaka, messi, henry, etc.. but can any of them tackle and defend like gerrard? how many times have they rescued their team in a big match in the last minute? usually only strikers can do that for their clubs, but even then only a handful have been able to do it as often as gerrard rescues liverpool. pele and maradona may be like the best players ever, but i don't think they are as complete as gerrard. moreover, he's been at liverpool his whole life, since his schoolboy days. that in itself speaks about his loyalty to the club. he's never had any drinking or partying or prostitute (like cristiano ronaldo) problems.
of course there are counter arguments like he's not as good a striker as torres, etc.. and i do agree with that. but i think that as a PLAYER he's definitely right up there with all-time greats all over the world. definitely, when you think about his all-round play and ability, and the number of times he's done it in big matches. all he needs is some premier league medals and international glory. which might be hard to find with england now, so hopefully fabio capello works some magic there too.
yeah well, this are just my opinions. it's hard to define what you would call the best footballer in the world/of all-time. but for me, just bcos i'm a liverpool supporter, the best player in the world of all-time (at the moment) is steven gerrard. our local boy turned hero.

bow down to the king!
yo peeps! well the holidays have been ok so far.
on wednesday i went to crash david and jon's poly! hahaha. it's spore poly. i reached at 11am which was their break and at 12 was the econs lecture which i didnt pay attention at all. then after the school ended at 1pm we went to orchard first. cos i wanted to look for a book so we went to kinu at taka. then cant find so we went to the one at bugis haha. jon also bought some new bag lol.
thursday i went to hannah's house to discuss about the gigs event which will be on 30 nov. at the moment, it looks like it's going to be a great and fun activity and is shaping up to be one of the best plh has ever seen! haha.
then yesterday went to school to collect our result slips. my full grades for this year are:
econs D
physics D
maths C
general paper C

geog U
then went to YC's house with cheang and we jammed abit with the keyboard, drums, and classical guitar. ooh and the new mikes!:) we started singing some cool songs like "just a little misunderstanding" and "terms and conditions" LOL!! actually they are just a book we found in YC's room and the warranty card for his new amplifier. haha!
cheang played the guitar and me and YC sang anyhow. actually i got the idea from joe's RI concert performance thing. his is still way better than ours. but it was only the first time we were doing it, so not too bad haha.
then went for dbs in the evening. now we're learning about angels.
today went to joe's house to play football in the morning then later went to church to help set up the stalls for the fiesta. how disappointing. almost nobody came to help. the only people there were me, david chien, justin how, shawn quek, uncle justin, and mark chen. then i think a few other women like theresa who were doing the balloons lol. but almost everything is in place for tmr's fiesta.

The Day The World Changed 2008
disclaimer: the title is just a title that was come up with a few years ago and trademarked onto the date of 2nd november. not meant to suggest anything.
yeepp... it's pretty much that time of year again. haha.
well it was kinda like 3 days connnected together cos everything was so conjoined.
it started on friday 31 oct. my group had our project work oral presentation which i think was pretty ok. then at night i went to joe's school for his concert. his group's performance was really good i think. unlucky to not have won anything. then i went to justin's house for our class party. it was really late. but it was fun and good thing i managed to clock a few hours of sleep.
woke up on saturday morning and went for band prac. after that we had lunch and went to tim and erica leong's house to play badminton. i picked up some new skills from david haha. so now i'm his student. unfortunately i lost to jeremy, who was jon's student. but it's ok, with more training i can become the badminton world champion in no time.
then the twins and yiying came my house for dinner:) some nice cooking by mum and dad. but they left kinda early at about 8plus.
anws the bad thing is at night liverpool lost to tottenham!!!! our first loss of the season which brings us back to 2nd place in the league behind chelsea on goal difference. and only 5 pts infront of man u who have a game in hand. i pretty much expect man u and chelsea to be up there at the end of the season, so liverpool have to keep winning games to be in contention for the title in may next year. i'm getting more pessimistic by the day and have the feeling it's gonna be another one of those years again where i say "next year will be our year". sigh.. totally ruined my birthday early in the morning. i stayed up til 3.30am just to watch us lose to a last minute winner from pavlyuchenko (is that how u spell it?) i can't believe i've still never seen liverpool win the league in my 17 years of existence.
anws it was made better by the birthday wishes lah. i heard lots of vibrating from my phone and saw that there were like 6 msges at 12am on sunday 2nd november. wow. all camping there just waiting for the clock to strike midnight haha. in order of sending was marie, david, michelle goh, cheang, jon chien, yiying. then a little after midnight was YC, wang chang, becky, and joe. in the morning i also got smses form renyi, hannah, hui xian (after taking quite long to remember lol), si'en, genevieve and daphne. then afternoon got charles and anthony and at night huiling (who i think found out at church haha). yup thx for all the smses guys!! it was quite funny cos david's msg was like "happy birthday! am i the first?" then i replied that he was 2nd and lost to marie by one second lol. her's was at 12:00:08 and his was 12:00:09. michelle's was at 12:00:21. the rest i can't remember but seperated by a few seconds also. david, maybe if you didnt type "am i first?" you could have gained a few seconds and beat marie haha! but as it stands, marie toe is the world champion 2008.
well, i think my most surprising wish this year was by aunty june during the welcome at service haha. either they keep records of the most troublesome kids in sunday school or something else. haha..
i got quite a few nice presents too. the most touching one would be the combined gift of the twins, michelle, and angie. the four of them bought me some liverpool shirt and cap haha. and there was a nice card to go with it, which jeremy sneaked a message in as well lol the little tyke. the only birthday card i've got this year, with touching messages inside:) also got a nice sports tee thing from joe which i'm definitely wearing the next time we play soccer! and marie, hannah, grace, shaun and michelle chia also combined to get me a soccer balloon and a big red sandwich cardboard thing which said "happy, sexy, slimy, smilemy" at the front and a big "17" at the back. haha. well, i didnt wear it but it's been put into safe storage in my room. another great present and my first this year was the shirt e-sean got me!:) i'll wear it on a special occasion. mum and dad gave me some birthday money and i've bought a nice stylo reebok bag which cost $39. becky also bought me a cool present which i won't say here cos i wanna use it to play pranks on people! lol.
anws after church on sunday we went to sakae sushi at bugis to have lunch!:) those who went were me, david, jon, jeremy, joe, e-sean, michelle goh, yiying, becky, angie, marie, hannah, grace, shermaine. 14 of us. the total bill was $240!!! crap. good thing dad gave me $200 to treat them so only had to pay off the extra $40. but it was a great lunch with great company! haha.
yup, thx for the gifts and wishes guys!
well, i had a few reflections on my birthday. not gonna be posted here cos they are pretty long and all jumbled up. it was quite a good birthday. definitely better compared to last year. last year i had physics olevel paper on my birthday haha. well, it's good to have your birthday on a sunday!!
ok i think i will go now. e-sean wants to watch the "Transformers" DVD.
The Day The World Changed will come again.
countdown: 362 days
yeepp... it's pretty much that time of year again. haha.
well it was kinda like 3 days connnected together cos everything was so conjoined.

woke up on saturday morning and went for band prac. after that we had lunch and went to tim and erica leong's house to play badminton. i picked up some new skills from david haha. so now i'm his student. unfortunately i lost to jeremy, who was jon's student. but it's ok, with more training i can become the badminton world champion in no time.
then the twins and yiying came my house for dinner:) some nice cooking by mum and dad. but they left kinda early at about 8plus.
anws the bad thing is at night liverpool lost to tottenham!!!! our first loss of the season which brings us back to 2nd place in the league behind chelsea on goal difference. and only 5 pts infront of man u who have a game in hand. i pretty much expect man u and chelsea to be up there at the end of the season, so liverpool have to keep winning games to be in contention for the title in may next year. i'm getting more pessimistic by the day and have the feeling it's gonna be another one of those years again where i say "next year will be our year". sigh.. totally ruined my birthday early in the morning. i stayed up til 3.30am just to watch us lose to a last minute winner from pavlyuchenko (is that how u spell it?) i can't believe i've still never seen liverpool win the league in my 17 years of existence.
anws it was made better by the birthday wishes lah. i heard lots of vibrating from my phone and saw that there were like 6 msges at 12am on sunday 2nd november. wow. all camping there just waiting for the clock to strike midnight haha. in order of sending was marie, david, michelle goh, cheang, jon chien, yiying. then a little after midnight was YC, wang chang, becky, and joe. in the morning i also got smses form renyi, hannah, hui xian (after taking quite long to remember lol), si'en, genevieve and daphne. then afternoon got charles and anthony and at night huiling (who i think found out at church haha). yup thx for all the smses guys!! it was quite funny cos david's msg was like "happy birthday! am i the first?" then i replied that he was 2nd and lost to marie by one second lol. her's was at 12:00:08 and his was 12:00:09. michelle's was at 12:00:21. the rest i can't remember but seperated by a few seconds also. david, maybe if you didnt type "am i first?" you could have gained a few seconds and beat marie haha! but as it stands, marie toe is the world champion 2008.
well, i think my most surprising wish this year was by aunty june during the welcome at service haha. either they keep records of the most troublesome kids in sunday school or something else. haha..
i got quite a few nice presents too. the most touching one would be the combined gift of the twins, michelle, and angie. the four of them bought me some liverpool shirt and cap haha. and there was a nice card to go with it, which jeremy sneaked a message in as well lol the little tyke. the only birthday card i've got this year, with touching messages inside:) also got a nice sports tee thing from joe which i'm definitely wearing the next time we play soccer! and marie, hannah, grace, shaun and michelle chia also combined to get me a soccer balloon and a big red sandwich cardboard thing which said "happy, sexy, slimy, smilemy" at the front and a big "17" at the back. haha. well, i didnt wear it but it's been put into safe storage in my room. another great present and my first this year was the shirt e-sean got me!:) i'll wear it on a special occasion. mum and dad gave me some birthday money and i've bought a nice stylo reebok bag which cost $39. becky also bought me a cool present which i won't say here cos i wanna use it to play pranks on people! lol.
anws after church on sunday we went to sakae sushi at bugis to have lunch!:) those who went were me, david, jon, jeremy, joe, e-sean, michelle goh, yiying, becky, angie, marie, hannah, grace, shermaine. 14 of us. the total bill was $240!!! crap. good thing dad gave me $200 to treat them so only had to pay off the extra $40. but it was a great lunch with great company! haha.
yup, thx for the gifts and wishes guys!
well, i had a few reflections on my birthday. not gonna be posted here cos they are pretty long and all jumbled up. it was quite a good birthday. definitely better compared to last year. last year i had physics olevel paper on my birthday haha. well, it's good to have your birthday on a sunday!!
ok i think i will go now. e-sean wants to watch the "Transformers" DVD.
The Day The World Changed will come again.

i failed my promos!!! :(
i got my promo results back last week.. i failed and have to retake J1 next year...
haha bluff you! i passed! lol.
last week was fun cos i tricked lotsa people that i failed and they got worried haha. mum got really scared and even called me. cos i sent her a msg that was something like "i got back my results. very bad. next year must retain." haha! then on sunday i tricked liesl and my dad and yiying helped so liesl got really angry and hit me lots of times lol.
anws here's my results:
GP 57% C
Geog 30% U
physics 49% E
econs 50% D
maths 55% C
yeah so i passed everything except geog. i did better than midyear and so my maths and econs got pulled down by one grade so my overall results are CUEED. good enough to promote. yep so looks like i'll be taking alevels next year.
the last 6 days or so have been about preparing for project work oral presentation. my group is doing on the first day which is this friday 31 oct.
yesterday we met at shu feng's house in the morning to practice. afterwards me and shu feng went to sentosa to meet the rest of the class cos we had some picnic party thing there. played beach captains ball and got real sandy. but it was a fun day:)
last saturday was e-rae's bday:) we went to bugis in the afternoon to celebrate. in the end me and e-sean bought some new clothes and e-rae didnt buy anything haha!
on sunday we also went to kuo chuan for the friendly games with living praise presbyterian church. i didnt play badminton but went to play captains ball. but after the first few minutes i realised that i had no motivation to play properly cos it was just friendly games. so i started slacking and walked most of the time haha. if get too competitive later also fighting all ah haha.
today went to school for chinese remedial lecture and PW dry run again. i reached late for chinese and didnt pay much attention during the lecture. but PW was ok i think.
yup, kinda boring..
anws here's a nice song!
"Now this is something you don't see everyday"
I once told you that it wasn't the end,
But I thought that I was lying.
Looks though things have come round the bend,
But I'm still stuck here waiting.
I can't stand the way we have to take this everyday
You know it's just not right, but it's your fears you won't fight
It's not the end (I wonder if you'll)
Take my hand (I wanna be there for you)
It's something we can't mend (I'm sorry I gave up)
I'm trying hard to stand
I once told you that I had moved on
But I knew that I was lying
I could hear your tears through the phone
But we're still not trying
Oh, we said goodbye, I think some part of me died
Do I just wait for my turn, and watch the city burn
It's not the end (I wonder if you'll)
Take my hand (I wanna be there for you)
It's something we can't mend (I'm sorry I gave up)
I'm trying hard to stand
Is it too late
Can't accept my fate
The memories are all I can take with me
I guess I'll let you be
It's not the end (I wonder if you'll)
Take my hand (I wanna be there for you)
It's something we can't mend (I'm sorry I gave up)
I'm trying hard to stand
It's not the end...
yeah nice song:)
hmm.. not much else to write. tmr is a holiday so i'm staying at home. then thursday is Alevel chinese which i am totally not prepared for. and friday is project work oral presentation which i am quite prepared for. so it'll all be over by this friday 31 oct!!
man, i can't wait for nov and dec! got lotsa fun stuff to do:)

pokemon master!!!
sigh.. i miss you so much.. i can't believe you're gone now, though i've pretty much got over you. i remember all the times we shared together. sometimes we went fast, sometimes we went slow. now that you're gone i realise how much i need you. but someone stole you from me. i shouldn't have left you there. maybe it's better that you're gone now so i wouldn't get knocked down and get hurt. anyway the loud sound you made everytime i put on the brakes was starting to get annoying. so goodbye, my bicycle...
hahaha. i told CRYSIz i would do this once i got the inspiration. anws i feel like buying a new cheap bike which doesn't look that nice so people won't steal it. and this time i'll lock it somewhere safer-.- cos only after my bike was gone i realised how different walking to the bus stop is from cycling. haha.
well, now that promos are over i'm playing more. i've gone bowling and pool with renyi, cheang and YC. so far ryan hasn't been able to make it for those outings. the latest one was really fun haha.
i've gone for tea at coffee bean with mum and she bought me a new coin pouch:) cos my wallet can't really hold coins. hannah said it looks girly, but we actually bought it from the men's section haha.
we've had some football trainings with the singapore combined schools team as well. which is like the best players from JC. something like national team haha. they're really good. i'm like at a lower standard than them, but maybe that's cos i haven't played for really long. mr ho says i can compete at their standard, but it's not really on my mind lah.
the other day at the training my old boots spoilt:( the back sole came out. so i went to buy a new one which looks really cool. it's a Total90 shoot, which i think is the boots that torres wears, but i bought the black and grey one cos it looks like the black spider-man suit haha:) cost $80 which is ok for nike i guess.. i shall call it my spider-boots! to replace my spoilt dragon-boots. haha. cos my old white one had material that looked like dragon skin and i scored lotsa goals with it.
the other day i went to look through my goal-scoring records and counted that i've scored 27 goals in 13 games for PLH (from sec 1 synod games til now). that means i average 2 goals a game for PLH. drat at first i was quite disappointed cos i thought it would be higher, but i realised that the games i've played for PLH were all competitive games, so it's a good ratio i guess.
we also went for angie's surprise party that saturday. hoho it was fun!:) it was at becky and esther's house. they have this Wii thing and we played tennis on it haha. david was quite good cos he found the formula for the power serve, so i got trashed by him quite alot lol. but nvm, it's only like some playstation thing and not real tennis:p then we played block catching too and other fun stuffs which i can't rmb at the moment.
i passed the chinese EOY exam too! lol. 45%, which is an E. but it'll count for nothing if i fail A-level chinese anws. so i didn't really care about it. but it's the highest i've got for the whole year. i was sleeping when we got back the paper, so i signed quite horribly next to my mark and our chinese teacher shouted "who signed for i-zack???" LOL. then my friend told her i signed it myself while i was half asleep. that day when we got it back again i realised that the signature was really quite stupid looking haha!!
that day we had chinese anchor test too. it's a test set by MOE for certain classes to gauge our school's chinese standard then they can determine how difficult to set the A-level paper. so quite a few of us decided that we will purposely do badly for it so that the standard will be low haha! the paper was 1hr30min long. i finished it in 15min. LOL. i wonder what marks i got for that. should be able to set a new record for my lowest chinese mark (which is 18%).
liverpool beat wigan 3-2 on saturday too!! yeah another comeback victory! that's the 5th time this season i think. man, we're showing really good character to turn victory into defeat in the last 10min of games. but we can't keep going like this for long cos we won't be able to come back from behind everytime. but at least we're still keeping pace with chelsea at the top:)
i've also watched the first 4 pokemon movies on youtube last saturday and sunday:) haha. (mewtwo strikes back, the power of one, spell of the unknown, mewtwo returns) wow, brings back lotsa good memories. pokemon is like the best thing that japan ever invented. besides sushi. for those of you who don't know, my favourite pokemon is charizard!! hahaha.. second favourite is pikachu. my next favourites are squirtle and bulbasaur:) but now they come up with so many new pokemon that i can't keep track already. i only know up to the first 250 pokemon haha. i realised what a big thing pokemon is to me. the storyline is really fantastic and stuff. ash ketchum is an absolute inspiration to all aspiring pokemon masters. i'm already a pokemon master lah, but i'm past those days i guess.. unless i buy a new gameboy catridge and start playing again!! haha.. oh yes and some of the theme songs are really nice.:)
2 weeks ago i also killed a cockroach by trapping it in a food container and spraying the insecticide inside haha!!! wow then can see it squirming about inside. super cool man. but you will waste a food container/ tupperware everytime you do this method. i have decided to call it the "death chamber" method hahaha!
yesterday i was late for school cos i slept on the bus and missed the stop. so i had to walk back-.-
we had a mock chinese exam too but i didn't take it seriously. so i finished the compo in 50min and slept for 4omin, and finished the compre in 30min and slept for 1hour.
after school we went shu feng's house to do project work too. i think our group is almost ready. yesterday we managed to do all the props and stuff for our oral presentation group skit.
man, this hols looks like it's gonna be a busy one.. my schedule looks quite packed. cos of lots of fun stuff and stuff like class overseas CIP to batam and chinese A-levels and PW. but oh well, busy but fun also good lah.
today i also went for a haircut. i told the lady to keep the length but make my hair thinner. i think it looks kinda funny.. not what i expected. my fringe now also looks kinda non-existent. oh well nevermind, after a month or so it should grow back again..
anws the o-levels have started this week too so all the best to those who are taking it!!
charizard, i choose you!!!
btw i just found out this cool thing!!

post-war analysis
yeah my promos are finally over!! hahaha...
but still got PW oral presentation and chinese A-levels coming up anyway lah.
well here's my evaluation of promos:
bear in mind mid-year exams already contains 20% of the marks.
GP (midyr D) - wrote the compo pretty ok i think. chose the topic on sports which i was familiar with so i think should be ok. not much to say about the compre. aim: to get same as mid year. D
geog (midyr U) - didn't study much cos was focusing on H2 subjects. expected: U
chinese (midyr U) - expected: U
physics (midyr E) - not very confident for this one. studied quite a bit but the questions were kinda confusing. aim: to get at least 30-something% and get pulled up by the midyr E to get S.
econs (midyr S) - i'm quite confident for econs. wrote the essays which i knew about and the paper format also quite easy. aim: overall E
maths (midyr S) - thought it would be easy but turns out the questions were tougher than expected. about 30marks gone already by leaving the questions blank. hopefully those i did will be enough to score me 40%. aim: same as midyr. S
yup so with a DESS i will be promoted to J2 next year. pls pray for me!:)
yesterday was a fun day with CRYSIz. renyi came my house at 10am and we played some songs on the guitar. now one of my songs is stuck in his head haha! it's called "don't know". it's like a more different song from my other ones. like diverting away from rock all the time and this one is a total acoustic thing. it's not a love song but it's sounds a bit romantic haha. renyi kept singing it afterwards. it's totally stuck in his head. that's gotta be a good thing cos only nice songs get stuck in your head haha. it was some interesting inspiration for that song actually.
anws we went to cheang's house at 12plus and jammed there with cheang and YC. i guess we're kinda better now than we were 2 years ago but to me it's not moving as fast as i would have liked. i guess it's cos we're not full-time and have to focus on studies. and we don't have the resources, time, or money to record a full album. and also we are in need of a really good singer. oh well. that's for another time.
we met ryan at vivo at 5plus. caught the 6pm eagle eye show. WARNING! do not read the next paragraph unless you don't mind some spoilers for the show!!
haha. well i think it's quite ok lah. but not say very fantastic or what. the fact that the computer was super smart and got out of control and caused everything is a spoiler. shia leboeuf was the main actor. yeah he's a good actor man, since his nickelodeon days haha. as a kid watching him doing stupid stuff on shows like er.. ok i forgot his show titles, but they were funny. i think at the first part when his brother died and he was kneeling at the coffin and crying was super touching. really felt the sadness there. his crying was that good hahaha.. and he's got a cool moustache-beard-sideburn thing in the show!:)
after the show we hanged out for awhile then took the train home. yup, days with CRYSIz are always fun days:)
today decided to get back to training. after 5 weeks of no real exercise i was hoping for too much lah. i initially wanted to run 16km LOL.. in the end after 4km i was dying! so i stopped after 4km and went to try some pull-ups. could do 12. after 6 weeks of no weights i think it's not too bad lah.. then i tried a 100m sprint and clocked 14secs. that stinks but considering i was quite tired i'll let it pass.
yes now the holidays are here i feel like it's time to not study! dunno why just now i suddenly thought to myself "eh must study!" then i remembered the promos are over lol. was quite shocked with myself.
yup that's all folks.
but still got PW oral presentation and chinese A-levels coming up anyway lah.

haha. well i think it's quite ok lah. but not say very fantastic or what. the fact that the computer was super smart and got out of control and caused everything is a spoiler. shia leboeuf was the main actor. yeah he's a good actor man, since his nickelodeon days haha. as a kid watching him doing stupid stuff on shows like er.. ok i forgot his show titles, but they were funny. i think at the first part when his brother died and he was kneeling at the coffin and crying was super touching. really felt the sadness there. his crying was that good hahaha.. and he's got a cool moustache-beard-sideburn thing in the show!:)
after the show we hanged out for awhile then took the train home. yup, days with CRYSIz are always fun days:)
today decided to get back to training. after 5 weeks of no real exercise i was hoping for too much lah. i initially wanted to run 16km LOL.. in the end after 4km i was dying! so i stopped after 4km and went to try some pull-ups. could do 12. after 6 weeks of no weights i think it's not too bad lah.. then i tried a 100m sprint and clocked 14secs. that stinks but considering i was quite tired i'll let it pass.
yes now the holidays are here i feel like it's time to not study! dunno why just now i suddenly thought to myself "eh must study!" then i remembered the promos are over lol. was quite shocked with myself.
yup that's all folks.

#100
ok this is my blog's 100th post! it's taken like 1year and 4months think. so one month there's about an average of 6 posts? haha.
yes we won the merseyside 2-0 with two goals from torres!!:) hopefully that will signal him returning to the form he had last season. just feels great to beat everton. so that's wins over everton and man utd already this season:)
this morning we beat PSV 3-1 in the champions league too. kuyt scored the 100th champions league goal since rafa took over. that's like 4-5 seasons since rafa's been here so it's about 20-25 goals every season!o.O wow. keane finally got his first liverpool goal and gerrard got his 100th liverpool goal:) stunning freekick, really sweet strike. yeah so cool that all these 100 goals things coincide with my blog's 100th post. haha.
this week have had some promo papers. GP on monday was ok i think. my compo was on whether money can bring sporting success or not. i said that there were more important things such as discipline, teamwork, etc..
on tuesday was geog and chinese. i think those two were crap, comfirm fail haha. then was feeling kinda sick on tuesday after the papers so came home and slept all the way from 5.30pm to the next day 8.30am. lol. good thing when i woke up i felt better so i studied physics yesterday. almost a full day of nothing but physics.
today's paper was quite tough in some parts but some parts also quite easy. but after the paper i wasn't feeling very confident. but now after thinking through i think that even if i fail it will be by just a bit maybe? so with the 20% from promos which i passed then hopefully can pull up to a sub-pass. then i have to score better in either econs or maths to pull up my mid-year sub-pass to a clear pass.
so the next few days have to keep going!! ok back to my studying now! i don't expect to post again til my promos are over.

big names for the big games
we are just ONE HOUR away from the MERSEYSIDE DERBY!!!
EVERTON VS LIVERPOOL!!!
til today, i still struggle to decide which game is bigger and more important- the games against man utd, or the ones against everton.
i guess those against man utd, the scum, are more important cos it will affect the title race, and there are lotsa man utd fans in singapore.
btw there was this joke on football crazy that made me and dad laugh like nuts haha!!
Qns: why do astronauts go to train at old trafford (man utd's homeground)?
Ans: bcos it is the only place on earth with NO ATMOSPHERE!
LOL! omg that really cracked the both of us up hahahaha!!!XD
the games against everton are about city pride, and personally, i feel everton are inferior to us, so losing to them really just makes me sick. no offence to the manchester derby or some london derbies, but the merseyside derby is really of a different level. the challenges fly in like nobody's business and the cards come out like daisies in spring time!!! losing to our neighbouring rivals is really something i can't stand.
even though we've won 6 out of the 8 derbies since rafa took over, nothing is for certain in a derby. and that's the scariest part.
well, torres will be looking to regain his scoring form, keane will be desperate to get his first goal for the club, and gerrard is just one away from 100 goals for liverpool. so everton had better watch out. i don't care who scores as long as we win, but there'll be a soft spot for me towards gerrard and keane today. cos if either scores it's gonna be something special.
here's something from the liverpool website:
Steven Gerrard will skipper the side at Goodison still waiting for his 100th goal for Liverpool. After having a strike controversially ruled out against Stoke last weekend, Benitez is hoping it's a sign that his magical moment will arrive on derby day.
"Maybe his goal against Stoke City was disallowed because destiny has reserved him to score his 100th goal against Everton. Steven can score in any game, he's always a threat. But maybe it will be better for him if he scores on Saturday. Clearly, he is a player with quality and not too many midfielders can score 99 goals in their career. Steven is maybe the best attacking midfielder around."
yup, that's Stevie G, our captain! local boy turned hero.
okie dokie, now away from football:p
yesterday was CJC J1 study day. so there was no school. met yiying at PS mac's at 10am for breakfast first. then we studied econs from 11am to 2pm. after a while it got too noisy so we decided to walk to church and study there. then later athelia and sam came with the same idea of studying too haha. then later mark also. walao now all steal my idea of studying in church haha! it's really good man. (if you study alone) cos it's super quiet. and maybe God's presence helps a bit haha.
well i did econs the whole time again. finished the chapter on market structure. seriously, i can't stand it man. i still don't really get it. yiying was doing market failure, which to me is super easy but to her is super hard haha! and mkt structure is easier to her. o.O
then david came and we went for dinner.
then later we went for dbs!! contrary to what is on david's blog, i don't think uncle alex was really angry with us haha. cos everyone else also talking alot. just so happened we're directly infront of him so he look straight sure see us haha. cos everytime a point was raised david and i will be like "wow that applies to this part of our lives!" then we will say something like "okay, we have to uncheck our 'auto-judge' button" or "wow quite hard to get rid of this kinda thinking leh." cos last night was about judging people. so me and david will have to try harder to stop judging people! sometimes it's quite hard cos very hard to change impressions of people, but yes we must pray!
ok today i just stayed at home and i did the chapter on market failure for econs. so that's completed my revision for the H2 subjects!!
i've got a plan for the next 10 days of exams and hopefully it'll be enough.
here are some verses i've took comfort in:
nahum 1:7 - "The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him."
phil 4:13 - "I can do everything through him who gives me strength."
romans 8:28 - "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
hope this is encouraging to all those taking exams!:) o-level, n-level, a-level, promos, or whatever EoYs.
alrighto, almost time for the big game!!
and almost time for my exams as well! haha. they start on monday and last to next tuesday 7 oct.
it's...... GO TIME!!!
do or die. now or never. make or break.

Happy Birthday YC!!
today is YC's bday. so, Happy Birthday dude!!!
i'd like to thank him for being a great friend for the past 2 yrs. being part of CRYSIz is always super fun with him around. haha. no matter how cool i am, he's still the real cool one lol. rock on dude!!
anws last sat night was nonsense man. liverpool drew 0-0 with stoke at anfield. even though we had like 80% possession, 20+ corners, and played the whole game in their half, it's not an excuse anymore this season. last season i would have took comfort from the fact that we dominated the whole game (like we usually do). but this season it's not about the performances anymore. i rather play badly every game of the season but still be champions in may. to win the title you have to score more goals than the opposition, and that's what we failed to do. with a team like stoke (no offence), who cares about defending?? just go and whack them upside down! if they score, what they gonna do about it? just score more lah. with players like torres, gerrard, keane, babel, kuyt, etc, even if u concede let's say 2 goals, u can't win 4-2 or 5-2? time to start playing fearlessly. i definitely trust in rafa, but sometimes in games like this, u just gotta think and play like champions. come on lads, we're liverpool. so let's play like we are. and we have the perfect opportunity to show that this sat in the merseyside derby against everton:)
last sunday was also the PSPC 165th anniversary. gotta thank God for our church and how much He has blessed it.
the family day fear factor games were also real fun:) my group was Barney & Friends!! lol. trust me to come up with this kinda stupid name. my group had me, lucas, weile, tim leong, adriel, audrey, hannah, liesl, michelle goh, and andrea. yeah they're quite a fun bunch haha.
monday to today has just been about going to school and sitting in lectures, trying to get some hints for the promos, and of course, sleeping during geog and chinese. haha!!
i've completed my revision for maths and physics and half of econs but i still feel quite unprepared. like i almost don't know anything haha. nvm, after i complete econs revision tmr then it'll be back to good old last night studying. i find it really works to a large extent for me.
okay please pray for me ppl!!:)

youch
yohoho! my parents are out so i took a bottle of beer from the fridge to drink! haha bluff you! actually it's just ginger beer.
just had pizza for dinner. but crap man i found out it's just a cheese pizza! no meat or vegetables, just cheese. o.O??? like that where got balanced meal? no protein or what. just carbo and some cheese fats..
anws the last few days have been quite good in terms of studying. i've finished revising all maths chapters and physics only left superposition and electric fields. yesterday after school went to church to study. i reached at 3pm and studied til 6pm. i did 3 chapters of physics (gravitation, forces, and circular motion). then went for dinner then dbs at 7.30pm.
david came for dbs too! haha. i think i shall continue to psycho him so he will come next week! haha. hey people you should come for dbs! you learn alot about the bible and somemore it's real fun!! it's on fridays at 7.30pm in church!:) and it's not like your normal DG actually.
today woke up late for my sat morn runs.. so i ran before dinner instead. 15km. it's the longest distance i have ever run. and crap!! i think i stretched my right hamstring! maybe didn't warm up that part enough:( so i took super long. i won't say the timing here cos it's embarrassing. lol. then now i feel a bit sick.. don't know why. this year has actually been my best physical condition ever. whole year not even been sick once. contrary to what my teachers think:p and i've also got some personal records in running and NAPFA and whatever physical tests i've taken this year. but i want to keep improving! i have some aims in stuff like 2.4km and 100m so i need to keep improving. hope i don't fall sick... but maybe my body is tired from all the training this year.. last time in sec sch never even train before haha.
well i had maths tuition in the morning and i asked raymond chan to help me with AP and GP. those two topics super hard man. actually the formulas and everything are quite easy when you just study it, but when you do the questions it's craazyy!!!o.O all the questions super hard like dunno what like that.
then i took a short 1hr nap and mum made waffles for brunch:) then i did 3 more chapters of physics from 12-3pm. (oscillations, waves, current of electricity)
after that i played my electric guitar. now i'm better at playing "famous last words" by MCR, "addicted" by simple plan, and "holiday" by greenday:)
oh ya and that day i was listening to "no love" by simple plan and i finally realised what the lyrics mean!!! after so long i always thought it was about something else but now i realise it actually means this thing. haha.
anws the liverpool vs stoke city game is at 10pm! well it's been a good start to the season. we've managed to get points even though we haven't hit top gear. and i think that's actually a good sign. should not peak too early in the season. then later part of the season when hit top form then whoohooo!
just visited the liverpool website just now and benitez said he and sammy lee and some reds players decided they will switch around "you'll never walk alone" with the EPL song! hahah!! yeah man what a great tactic! no wonder the man utd game i was thinking why when the players in the tunnel haven't sing YNWA yet and only sang when the players were on the pitch. now they play the EPL stupid song first when the players in the tunnel and YNWA when the players are on the field to psycho the other team and to pump up the liverpool players:) solid!!
rafa also said gerrard is now the best midfielder in the world and top 3 players in the world. i think the other two is probably torres and mascherano haha. nah i think rafa was thinking about cristiano ronaldo and kaka.
oh man stoke city has this guy called rory delap and his long throw is nuts!! goes right into the penalty spot area. liverpool have to watch out for it later.
well. after the liverpool game i think i'll do my GP essay (which is a whole month due) at midnight. so should finish by 2am. then can see the last part of arsenal and bolton.
man my GP essay was actually due on 25 august. haha. yesterday mr holden came to me and said "i-zack, -" then before he said another word i said "yeah i know, the essay. monday." then he smiled at me and said with his funny caucasian accent "you're walking off the edge i-zack. walking off the edge and just about to fall off." o.O?!! what?? is my GP that bad? haha. then i got 23/50 for my previous essay and he said "not as bad as i expected actually." o.O!!?? man i think he's got a very low impression of me. partly cos i always sleep in his class i guess. haha. hope i'm not too over-confident for GP. i'm having the same attitude for it as the one i had for english.
tmr is PSPC 165th anniversary!:) service is later than usual haha. that's why tonight i can afford to sleep later. 10am at pres. high. after that will be the family day games. it's called fear factor lol. ooooo scary.
yeah and next week monday i shall complete my physics revision. mr rajoo says on monday he can give me a consultation period on superposition and electric field. then tue to fri i will study all the econs chapters!! after which i SHOULD be ready for the promos...
super scared man.. if i fail just one topic this time then will either get retained or kicked out of school!o.O heard that most likely they will just kick us out cos from next year onwards our school doesnt want any retainees. if retain actually not so bad cos can improve your foundation and i get to be in the soccer team for 3yrs haha. if kick out it's like o.O??? have to go poly or work or smth..
no way man i'm gonna study this last stretch and pass my promos and go to J2 next year!!
that is, if they set the papers at a standard that i can do the questions...
but i think last night's DBS was good cos it was about God providing for us and not worrying. so it's all in His hands.
whoa crap but still scared to the MAXimum!
ok it's almost time for the liverpool match. hey and i don't feel really sick anymore!:)
oww babeah!
just had pizza for dinner. but crap man i found out it's just a cheese pizza! no meat or vegetables, just cheese. o.O??? like that where got balanced meal? no protein or what. just carbo and some cheese fats..

wahahahahahaha...
hoho it's been a week since i last updated.
things that have happened: for one, i cut my hair cos got caught that day during the surprise hair check. -.- i wanted to keep the length but make it thinner, so i guess it's turned out ok.
i've also been appointed in charge of the games for our class local CIP to an orphanage. so i came up with a proposal. the kids should be below 10, so i put in stuff like simon says haha!
on friday i also went church early after school to study before dbs. dbs is good! i think cos the questions we ask are quite relevant to our everyday lives. uncle nick and uncle alex can explain the answers well too.
on sat went for band prac and then later we invited aunty uli along with us for lunch and she paid for all of us!o.O stunned man. really nice of her. she didnt want to accept when we offered to pay her back haha. then later david and i went to walk to bugis and bought the macdonald's mcflurry. there was some new flavours called mudpie and some berry thing. it's a scam! don't buy it! it costs $2.50 and all they do is add the chocolate fudge to the mcflurry.
liverpool beat man utd 2-1 as well!:) yes! i think i don't need to say much more lah;)
i've also officially ran the longest distance i have ever run i think. 14km. don't think i've run more than that before. my timing was 1hr 11min 48sec. not bad i guess. i always try to keep to within 5min for every 1km.
on sunday i played drums for plh worship for the first time in a long time. decided not to do anything fancy and keep it simple. since it's been a long time back and the songs were not there to do any stunts anyways. i can only go crazy when we jam rock songs at cheang's house and crash like nuts haha! the only time i did something stupid was during the welcome song cos we didnt practice that and i didnt know what david was playing so i just decided to crash at the wrong time! lol.
we celebrated mentors' day 2 weeks late too. haha. and we had a good teentalk on serving by uncle nick. plh also has 3 teams signed up for the family day games this year!:) it's this sunday.
yesterday was ryan's bday. so, happy birthday mate!!! it's been a real blessing to have met ryan. and made friends with him and forming crysi-z and stuff. all the crazy, fun, and also meaningful times we've shared. as well as telling secrets and stuff. though nowadays not so much since we're not in the same school anymore. but still love ya all the same dude!haha.
yesterday morning also woke up early to read Bible and do quiet time. then went to school early to run 14laps of interval runs. got an average timing of 1min16secs. not bad i think...
last night i also stayed up to watch liverpool vs marseille. we won 2-1!:) it's the first game of this yr's champions league group stages. so we're off to a good start. unlike last year lol. we went down to a good goal by the french team but gerrard equalised with an absolute stunner 3min later. really fantastic. the shot was really just amazing. if u haven't seen it... go see it!!! then babel got us a penalty after good trickery in the box and gerrard scored from the spot even after having to retake it again. shows what fantastic nerve he's got. that's why he's our captain:) he's one goal away from reaching 100 goals for liverpool too.
recently i've also been addicted to the songs "save you" and "what if" by simple plan and "better that we break" by maroon 5. haha:)
anws, the promos are like 1plus weeks away!!! this is the timetable:
29 sep: GP
30 sep: h1 geog and chinese
2 oct: h2 physics
6 oct: h2 econs
7 oct: h2 maths
i'm just gonna focus on passing GP and the 3 h2s. cos that's all i need to promote to j2. unless they change the promotion requirements or smth..
so far i've almost finished revising maths. already one-third through physics. this week gonna complete my studying for maths and physics. then next week is econs all the way.
hopefully it's enough. please pray for me people!! thx:)
i'm also like 3 weeks late in passing up a GP essay. it was supposed to be due on 25 august. lol. think i'll try to do it tmr..
ok back to my maths!!

no.95
yeah! yesterday was the first breakfast selling for the mission trip fund-raising!!
grandma helped me bake chicken pies to sell. so the food we were selling were chicken pies, hotdog buns, curry chicken and bread, milo, fishballs on a stick, and tiramisu. like wow! must be prinsep breakfast history lol.
i was in charge of the tiramisu and chicken pies. they got sold out the fastest i think haha. david helped me sell. i think we were pretty good salesmen:) lol.
i also managed to sell all of my 15 coupons! hahaha!! yeah man:)
and thx to all those people who came to help out!! couldn't have done it without all of them.
then i helped yiying to backup sing for her worship. i actually didn't even go for the prac so i wasn't really sure what was going on haha. so i decided i will just be there to give yiying moral support cos she was scared for some reason.
the anniversary family day games are coming soon too. i've already got two teams which is same as last year but i think we can go one better than last year and so this week we will try to recruit a third team!!
oh then at lunch tim leong spilled his soup on me haha! silly guy don't know how he hold the bowl can so nice throw it at me LOL. lucky i jumped out of the way so my clothes were not wet but my bag was wet.
then we had mission trip training which ended really late. like at 5.30pm.
it was e-sean's birthday yesterday. so HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
she had a mini-party and a few of her school friends came over for dinner and to watch some disney channel movie. i watched king kong on the other tv instead haha. i think the best part is when he kills all 3 T-rexs. abit unbelievable, but nvm it's good action. the only stupid thing about that fight is cos it's all over a stupid girl. she's so small i don't know why all 3 dinosaurs are trying to eat her. and just cos of that they get killed by king kong. haha.
today dunno why i was super sleepy in school. i literally slept sitting up during gp tutorial. the only reason i didnt sleep with my head on the table was bcos mr holden kept kicking my table when my head went down. when school ended i slept for half and hour. then i woke up and studied a little bit of maths and went down to find the school gym wasn't open today. so came home after that lor..
anws regarding my previous post i didn't really know how to conclude it nicely but i think ryan did a great job for me on his blog. here's what he said after copying and pasting from my post:
haha. it was a cool post
on this little tyke master lum met at serangoon stadium. ^^
i think its quite true too
how we make new friends, lose friends, go through heartbreak, sing emo songs on our iPod, and change our dreams
and how we work towards them and dont give up
and you always trust God (:
get back on the field
For GOD!!!

every punch i take and every bone i break
well it's been a pretty lazy holiday so far...
haven't started studying seriously yet.. did some econs.. a bit of maths... mostly i did alot of planning but very little execution haha..
i shall start when term reopens.. hopefully...
well after the adventure travel journey, i've stayed home on wednesday, thur and friday. except friday when there was DBS. oh and to visit my grandpa in hospital. he has some kidney problem so please pray for him!
today i went to run in the morning. 13km. crap man dunno why everytime i run then my legs can just keep going and they dont get tired, but my stomach area and lungs down there feel like wanna explode like that. like got some crazy stitch. but it's not a stitch. i think it's some muscle or organ problem. o.O. if dont have this problem i can run with no problem cos my legs are like dynamo. haha.
then i came home and had a long bath cos was super tired. then i read a christian book and my Bible reading instead of studying haha... then went to see how they were doing at band prac. turns out they were pretty okay. then now i'm backing up for yiying tmr-.- haha... cos she need a guy backup singer.. k then jammed a while and went for lunch.
after lunch then my mission trip group (me, sharilyn, amanda leong, and becky) plus david went to laselle to do our breakfast banners. cos tmr my team selling breakfast. david came cos he got nothing else to do if he go home. anws we both feel super weird if we stay home on a saturday haha.
k anws we couldnt really get started cos we kept talking. i dont think its really my fault cos everyone else also talking haha. and david u are a distraction and caused me to talk to u so david how can u say it's me on ur blog!? haha!
then the girls needed us to buy some stuff for them. so me and david walk to sheng shiong to buy. like the plates and bowls for tmr's breakfast. then we also helped them buy some potato chips cos they wanted to eat.
when we came back they did quite a bit of work already so after a while they got everything done. then we started talking quite alot haha! good bonding time. haha although david was an extra i think his company is still appreciated lol!
anws today in the morning when i was running this boy suddenly started running with me haha. so i jogged a bit faster but then he also ran faster to keep up with me. so i slowed down to give him chance. then asked him "training ah?" then he said ya. so i started talking with him a bit while we were running. turns out he was training for his 1.6km cos he's pri 6. haha.
at that time when he started running with me was after i already ran like 11plus km. so left about 5 rounds of the track. then i was already like dying cos of my stomach problem. but cos he was running with me it caused me not to think of my pain. also cos he was there then i didnt really wanna lose face so i could run like at quite a good pace. lol.
he asked me why i was training so i told him cos of football team. he used to play fullback for st.gabriels soccer team but now stop cos of cca stand down. so we were saying like "ya football team must train running cos whole game must run right hahaha.." then he ask me how long i running so i told him 13km then he got stunned. haha. totally trash his 1.6km.
he's quite cute man. he wore the kind of specs that i wore in pri sch. that flimsy kind that can break if a ball smashes it. then he also really skinny. football team somemore. and he's a nice friendly guy. haha. reminded me of me. i actually saw myself in him today.
caused me to think on the way home and when i was resting in the kitchen drinking my 100plus. he's probably got some big dreams that most boys have. having been in a soccer team maybe his dreams are the soccer kind. yeah well he's gonna grow up and in 5 years time he's gonna be my age. he'll realise most of his dreams like playing for liverpool or singapore were nonsense. his mindset changes. some things stay the same and some things change. he's gonna make new friends. he's gonna lose friends. there's heartbreak. he might sing some emo songs to himself on his ipod. everything that seemed fine and dandy in pri sch is gone and you realise there's a whole different ball game. he decides hmm i'll make some new aims or new dreams. not necessarily related to football. and works towards those.
sometimes u actually realise some of your dreams. in my case one example would be to be playing for my college soccer team right now. most important is you don't give up. and u always trust God.
there's always something out there. that you work towards.
and if you're the underdog, which is usually the case, you work to prove them wrong. even your friends take one look at you and think, he's not good enough. faults here faults there. he's like this. etc. the first look is what they see. they dont look longer. dont look deeper. but you know yourself inside, you know what you're made of. ok who can blame them, most times you dont show it. but you know it's there. you know you're better.
well buddy i hope you know God. if not now, then someday. and trust Him. and NOT anyone else.
i didnt get your name and you didnt get mine. but i hope we meet again some day. hopefully one saturday morning when we go to serangoon stadium to train again.
heh and when you found out who you talked to this morning, we'll try to find a pen and paper so you can get my autograph eh?;) haha ok that was just another ego crappy joke.
take care little tyke.
these little dudes are one of the reasons why i fight.

adventure travel journey!!!
hey folks it's been a great holiday so far!
well saturday afternoon i went to run at serangoon stadium and got caught in the rain :( i did some pull-ups there too and again equaled my best of 18. can't seem to get better than that:(
ok anws sunday we had the PLH hike at southern ridges. we went for 8am service first then afterwards we got on the bus at 9.30. the seniors groups were quite pathetic cos some people didn't go.. in the end my group only had hannah and i, the other group only david and yiying, and jon's group is the best cos only he came and the rest didnt come. i think this shows jon's commitment haha! so the seniors altogether had only 5 ppl and all were J1 or poly 1. all those born in 1991! haha we rock.
anws the hike was not tiring at all. i didn't sweat at all except for the part where i piggy-backed louis and ran up haha!! he's super cute. then i also pushed e-rae in her wheelchair haha. that's the only things that made me sweat. then there was also some high wall thing (i think it's about 4m high) and i ran and jumped up there and did a few pull-ups haha. later david and jon joined me at the top and i think the photos look quite cool lol.
later we went for lunch at vivo city and i ate yong tau foo. i put in quite alot of things in my bowl and it cost $6.50 LOL.
ok then later we went back to church and had the missions trip training.
at night we went to have dinner at grandma's house. jasper (my pri2 cousin) was playing his champions league fifa game on the laptop as usual and i made fun of arsenal haha! (cos he supports arsenal) cos i told him liverpool got 5 champions league and arsenal got ZERO! but he don't believe me haha! silly guy don't even know the history of arsenal. then later dad called fabregas: flabby-gas and uncle danny said van persie is van helsing haha! then he also said arsenal is arse then jasper cried:p
ok anws waht happened yesterday all the way to today is the adventure travel journeys of I-Zack, David and Jon!!!
haha. ok yesterday first we met at city hall mrt at 2.30pm and we went to the toilet first. after the bombing we went to bras basah sweelee to check out some guitars and i played a $1920 guitar. WOW!!! most expensive guitar i have ever touched. ok then we went to near the national library and then walked to bugis. nothing much there so we walked to near lavendar but in the end it was really too smelly and we decided to detour back to plaza sing. we had our dinner there at 6pm. until then the journey was still not interesting because it was at places which we already knew about and we needed to explore some new places!
so from PS we decided to break our rule of not taking transport and took the mrt to aljunied. from aljunied we were supposed to have a journey all the way to east coast park. so we just keep walking in the general direction of east coast park and at 10.30pm we found ourselves on the opposite side of the road of east coast park lol. so we decided to cut through a tunnel to try to get to the other side. actually we were walking into the tunnel but we weren't sure where we would end up, so we would ask like "eh later dunno where this will lead us leh then how?" but our trademark reply would be "but this is an adventure right?" and then we would all be like "yeah!!!" and continue walking. haha!
anws in the tunnel we were walking and then suddenly heard an announcement which i think is meant for us but we couldnt make out what they were saying. then soon some security truck which said "emas recovery" came and stopped near us. then the guy came out and asked what we were doing. so i just acted dumb and explained we wanted to get to east coast park but we didnt know the way. then they told us to go out through the emergency exit. then they took a photo of the 3 of us! lol! i think it's for recording purposes in case next time we are caught in a tunnel again haha. so bla bla we came out and contined on our way to ECP.
in the end we reached there about 11plus and took a break. we bought big gulp and nachos from the 7-11 and sat down to eat. then we also ate the julie's peanut butter biscuits that mum gave me to bring. after which we continued walking through ECP. i was starting to feel really tired and wanted to sleep but good thing we found the shower place and bathed to get refreshed. only jon was hyper the whole night cos he drank shark and red bull LOL.
ok 2am we started walking more out of east coast park to explore some new grounds.
by 4am we decided to go back to ECP and slacked at the macs and discussed what would be the next part of our adventure. so at 4.30am we decided to walk to the nearest mrt station and take the train to the twins house. so we went out and walked aimlessly cause we thought in singapore if u just kept walking sure can find a mrt station lol. in the end we reached a bus-stop and i did some mapping skills and concluded we should follow the route of bus 966 to get to eunos mrt. so after a long walk we finally reached eunos mrt at 6am.
but i saw the train route would go past outram mrt so i decided that i would skip going to the twins house and go hom to sleep. in the end on the way home i slept and woke up at punggol haha! so had to take the train back to serangoon again and i reached home at 7.15am. took a bath and ate some cereal and i slept at 7.45am all the way til 5pm.
yup and that's the end of our adventure travel journey! i dunno why we call it that but david came up with the name long ago haha. but the last time was just travel journey but today's one was ADVENTURE travel journey. and we are definitely not gonna have anymore for a long time haha. also need to start studying for my promos, so from tmr onwards i'm gonna start studying. (promos is end of sept to start of oct)
wow i think it was a really very good excellent experience. non-stop walking like from 2.30pm to 6am the next day!o.O of course got some stops lah but still like really quite amazing. the distance we covered we estimate maybe 10-20km. and the only food we ate was at dinner at plaza sing and the nachos and biscuits at east coast park. and we only drank like one bottle of water cos couldnt find any place to refill. and the big gulp too. good thing jon said he prayed for good weather:)
alright that's all for now haha! some nice photos and videos that we took too:)
ok i think it's time to eat dinner soon!
well saturday afternoon i went to run at serangoon stadium and got caught in the rain :( i did some pull-ups there too and again equaled my best of 18. can't seem to get better than that:(
ok anws sunday we had the PLH hike at southern ridges. we went for 8am service first then afterwards we got on the bus at 9.30. the seniors groups were quite pathetic cos some people didn't go.. in the end my group only had hannah and i, the other group only david and yiying, and jon's group is the best cos only he came and the rest didnt come. i think this shows jon's commitment haha! so the seniors altogether had only 5 ppl and all were J1 or poly 1. all those born in 1991! haha we rock.
anws the hike was not tiring at all. i didn't sweat at all except for the part where i piggy-backed louis and ran up haha!! he's super cute. then i also pushed e-rae in her wheelchair haha. that's the only things that made me sweat. then there was also some high wall thing (i think it's about 4m high) and i ran and jumped up there and did a few pull-ups haha. later david and jon joined me at the top and i think the photos look quite cool lol.
later we went for lunch at vivo city and i ate yong tau foo. i put in quite alot of things in my bowl and it cost $6.50 LOL.
ok then later we went back to church and had the missions trip training.
at night we went to have dinner at grandma's house. jasper (my pri2 cousin) was playing his champions league fifa game on the laptop as usual and i made fun of arsenal haha! (cos he supports arsenal) cos i told him liverpool got 5 champions league and arsenal got ZERO! but he don't believe me haha! silly guy don't even know the history of arsenal. then later dad called fabregas: flabby-gas and uncle danny said van persie is van helsing haha! then he also said arsenal is arse then jasper cried:p
ok anws waht happened yesterday all the way to today is the adventure travel journeys of I-Zack, David and Jon!!!
haha. ok yesterday first we met at city hall mrt at 2.30pm and we went to the toilet first. after the bombing we went to bras basah sweelee to check out some guitars and i played a $1920 guitar. WOW!!! most expensive guitar i have ever touched. ok then we went to near the national library and then walked to bugis. nothing much there so we walked to near lavendar but in the end it was really too smelly and we decided to detour back to plaza sing. we had our dinner there at 6pm. until then the journey was still not interesting because it was at places which we already knew about and we needed to explore some new places!
so from PS we decided to break our rule of not taking transport and took the mrt to aljunied. from aljunied we were supposed to have a journey all the way to east coast park. so we just keep walking in the general direction of east coast park and at 10.30pm we found ourselves on the opposite side of the road of east coast park lol. so we decided to cut through a tunnel to try to get to the other side. actually we were walking into the tunnel but we weren't sure where we would end up, so we would ask like "eh later dunno where this will lead us leh then how?" but our trademark reply would be "but this is an adventure right?" and then we would all be like "yeah!!!" and continue walking. haha!
anws in the tunnel we were walking and then suddenly heard an announcement which i think is meant for us but we couldnt make out what they were saying. then soon some security truck which said "emas recovery" came and stopped near us. then the guy came out and asked what we were doing. so i just acted dumb and explained we wanted to get to east coast park but we didnt know the way. then they told us to go out through the emergency exit. then they took a photo of the 3 of us! lol! i think it's for recording purposes in case next time we are caught in a tunnel again haha. so bla bla we came out and contined on our way to ECP.
in the end we reached there about 11plus and took a break. we bought big gulp and nachos from the 7-11 and sat down to eat. then we also ate the julie's peanut butter biscuits that mum gave me to bring. after which we continued walking through ECP. i was starting to feel really tired and wanted to sleep but good thing we found the shower place and bathed to get refreshed. only jon was hyper the whole night cos he drank shark and red bull LOL.
ok 2am we started walking more out of east coast park to explore some new grounds.
by 4am we decided to go back to ECP and slacked at the macs and discussed what would be the next part of our adventure. so at 4.30am we decided to walk to the nearest mrt station and take the train to the twins house. so we went out and walked aimlessly cause we thought in singapore if u just kept walking sure can find a mrt station lol. in the end we reached a bus-stop and i did some mapping skills and concluded we should follow the route of bus 966 to get to eunos mrt. so after a long walk we finally reached eunos mrt at 6am.
but i saw the train route would go past outram mrt so i decided that i would skip going to the twins house and go hom to sleep. in the end on the way home i slept and woke up at punggol haha! so had to take the train back to serangoon again and i reached home at 7.15am. took a bath and ate some cereal and i slept at 7.45am all the way til 5pm.
yup and that's the end of our adventure travel journey! i dunno why we call it that but david came up with the name long ago haha. but the last time was just travel journey but today's one was ADVENTURE travel journey. and we are definitely not gonna have anymore for a long time haha. also need to start studying for my promos, so from tmr onwards i'm gonna start studying. (promos is end of sept to start of oct)
wow i think it was a really very good excellent experience. non-stop walking like from 2.30pm to 6am the next day!o.O of course got some stops lah but still like really quite amazing. the distance we covered we estimate maybe 10-20km. and the only food we ate was at dinner at plaza sing and the nachos and biscuits at east coast park. and we only drank like one bottle of water cos couldnt find any place to refill. and the big gulp too. good thing jon said he prayed for good weather:)
alright that's all for now haha! some nice photos and videos that we took too:)
ok i think it's time to eat dinner soon!

teachers day
yesterday was pretty ok.
we had celebrations for teachers day. the dance and choir were not bad. then they had some performances by some bands. most of it was acoustic performances. only yiying's band had an electric guitar but they didnt even turn on the drive and they had this stupid tom-tom drums instead of a real drum set:( yiying's bass was ok. but the singer went super off and caused the whole thing to crash. haha.
afterwards coach adrian ho met with me, ben and iggy to talk. he said lots of stuff to the 3 of us regarding the training programme after exams and the captaincy. actually what he said was confidential and can't be put up here. haha too bad. but i'll just say that i'm the vice-captain. he explained and told us alot of stuff but bottomline is i'm vice-cap.
later went with YC and cheang back to maris stella to meet renyi and ryan. then we went to see some of our old teachers. like mrs tey, mrs loh, ms goh, ms jazilla, mrs champion, and mr chew. had quite a lot of fun talks with them. mrs tey didnt really say much though. talked quite a bit with ms goh and telling her how i passed h2 physics for mid-year lol. ms jazilla saw me and her eyes went big cos i was her worst student for chem last year. like really really worst. think she couldnt believe i got that b3 haha. she was like saying you got a C6 right? lol. then i told her i dropped chem in jc then she started laughing. actually i was really scared to see her cos i gave her so much trouble last time i wasnt sure what she would say to me lol. turns out she only said nice things. mr chew lye heng was also real funny. i said this year my chinese very bad cos he not teaching my anymore. haha. funny how my chinese teacher is like one of my favourite teachers.
saw mr dennis koh too (discipline master). he talked alot to me and asked me if i was in the soccer team. i said ya and told him i'm vice-cap and he was like congratulating me and said "so looks like next year the vice-captain of CJ soccer is going to bring them back to the glory days" haha.. talked quite a bit too.
after seeing all our teachers we went to cheang's house to watch "nacho libre" and jam. afterwards went for dbs.
yup that was my day ysd in short. time to do some work now.

yohoho
yohoho and a bottla rum!
wow today was quite a funny day.
first in the morning i went to yiying's class to help her tune the bass guitar she borrowed from ben cos her class is performing for teachers' day. then i taught her how to play the song they are gonna perform. ("that thing you do" by the wonders)
i was suddenly doing some last minute thinking of auditioning for teachers' day with an acoustic performance but looks like the auditions have closed anyway haha.
then we had SD (student development, which is something like civics and moral education) and mr rajoo taught us about anger management. lol. quite funny and i guess it's a little bit helpful. though i think everyone has their own ways of dealing with anger and frustration. i dunno whether mine are good or not.
after SD was econs tutorial, break, physics lecture, and then chinese. i slept the whole two hours of chinese!! o.O cos just before the lao shi came in then i slept. the next thing i knew, mr rajoo shouted "I-Zack!! wake up!!!" then i awoke with a jump and looked sleepily at him and asked "what period is it now?" then he said "PW, what did u think?" haha... then gary said "whoa you sleep until your hair messed up all!" then i found out from my friends that the chinese teacher couldnt wake me up the whole 2 hrs haha.. first time she tried to wake me up i said "lao shi i donate blood, too tired already." the second time apparently she called me then i sat up with my eyes closed, looked around, and slept again. O.o wow. no idea. i dont even rmb really seeing my chinese teacher today. my pillow too nice already haha! oh ya i brought a pillow to school to use for my back. haha! it's a good rest for my back. the chair quite hard la. oh ya and sometimes i use it to sleep on. cos the table too hard for my face. lol.
ok then we had PE and stuff like that. and now i'm home.
and for some reason now i'm addicted to the song "gifts and curses" by yellowcard. it's about some spiderman thing with mary jane watson. here are the lyrics:
"Gifts and Curses" by Yellowcard
Maryy belongs to the words of a song.
I try to be strong for her, try not to be wrong for her.
But she will not wait for me, anymore, anymore.
Why did I say all those things before? I was sure.
(She is the one), but I have a purpose
(she is the one), and I have to fight this
(she is the one), a villian I can't knock down.
I see your face with every punch I take
and every bone I break, it's all for you.
And my worst pains are words I cannot say, still I will always fight on for you.
Maryy's alive in the bright New York sky,
the city lights shine for her, above them I cry for her.
Everything's small on the ground below, down below.
What if I fall, then where would I go, would she know?
(She is the one), all that I wanted,
(she is the one), and I will be haunted,
(she is the one), this gift is my curse for now.
I see your face with every punch I take,
and every bone I break, it's all for you.
And my worst pains are words I cannot say,
Still I will always fight on for you.
I see your face with every punch I take,
and every bone I break, it's all for you.
And my worst pains are words I cannot say,
Still I will always fight on for you. Fight on for you...

blood donation!
wow today our school had this blood donation drive and football team supposed to donate together haha. it was quite ok. first go in there then like quite blur and not sure what to do. then must sign form and everything. anws, it wasnt really pain. first they prick ur finger and test it for iron or something. they suddenly prick it and at first u dont feel anything but after awhile then wow! it hurts! haha..
ok then u go to the chair and sit down and get ready. soon a nurse comes to u and gives u an injection which really is very pain!!! its supposed to numb the pain later when they take ur blood. and the needle which they use to take ur blood is really BIG!! like wow. i accidentally looked and it and got horrified. its really SUPER BIG and u will be like omg nuts is that crazy thing beneath my skin and intruding into my blood vessel now?? o.O lucky that one not pain haha..
ok anws it wasnt that bad. there was free food and drinks and everything and u get a certificate. then u get a bandage on ur arm. mine is pink lol..
well i wonder which lucky fellow is gonna get my blood and have some of my The Man powers transferred to him. haha some of the guys in class were joking that whoever gets my blood will turn into the incredible hulk cos too much radioactive substance. and dunno what, I-Zack's The Man blood too powerful already. lol. hmm this The Man thing which started of as a passing comment has become into some trademark thing already haha.
which reminds me that some of the class guys also said that time i should join olympics. LOL. then i said ya as if i can qualify, anws spore got enough good ppl can win some medals. now only got one silver... then they started blaming me (jokingly of course) that why i never join, now spore losing. and weijie said nvm even if i join i represent myself and not spore cos the medal tally will show my name at the top above china and usa instead of spore hahaha. crazy guys xD
well i just realised the prelims are approaching in 6weeks and i'm like blur about everything cos i've forgotten everything after mid-years. that kinda happens after i take a paper. everything i learn goes out the door and have to relearn from scratch. which is why i dont believe in studying throughout the year. cos if i study throughout the year and take all the tests i still forget them anyways. this only happens for studying but not for other things. haha. i got good selective memory.. and mr rajoo gave our class a good talk yesterday which made me think abit. so i will come up with a study timetable by this week and start by next week!! haha.. confirm one..
and to those people who have some misconsceptions of our family, e-sean is the hardworking one and i am the lazy one. e-sean studies alot! so give her some credit! i'm the lazy bum out of all the 3 siblings:p
ok time to play some guitar:)

wahaha
i'm finally back from grandma's house! it was a pretty fun time:) quite cool to be moving to a new environment for a while. and it's much easier to go school from there too. it's like 30min only. from my own home it's 1hour:( and the bus stop is like only 2min walk away.
gramma made sure we woke up every morning for Quiet Time and breakfast and so i wasn't late for school too. but every night we also had to sleep early haha.
anws, the youth comm meeting-outing on saturday was fun!:)
i ran 10km in the morning even though i had this like crazy pain at one of my gut muscle place things... after the run my legs and everything were all not tired at all but only had this really bad pain at the gut. hope it's nothing serious... i'm having a rest from running til thursday anyway so should be able to recover.
anws we met at 4.30pm at kovan mrt. grace, hannah, weng shian, and athelia didnt come. so only had me, yiying, yiren, weile, tim, angie were there. sam didnt come for bowling but joined us later for dinner. it's the first time we've ever met to do something outside of planning for PLH activities, so it was a good relaxing time:) the bowling lanes were closed at first so we decided to have our meeting at KFC to discuss abt upcoming PLH stuff.
at abt 5plus then we went to bowl. the first game i was top scorer, then second game we decided to play me, tim and weile vs yiying, yiren and angie. (based on the first game scores) in the end they won 222-211.. by 11pts only haha. i think yiren won the game for them with his score. second game i also deproved. while angie improved from last to even more points than weile and tim LOL. then we went to have dinner at KFC.
down there we witnessed the joke of the day:
we were talking about weights ok. (in KFC mah..)
Tim said something about being very light, so i said
"nvm lah. u still 14 right? got alot of time to grow."
Tim: "eh what? i'm losing weight every year leh."
me: "that's a scary thought... how heavy were you when you were a baby??"
haha!! yiying started laughing like crazy til her face was red and she couldnt talk properly lol. after all these years, this is the first time i see her laugh like that haha!
then we went to yiying's house and slacked and played some guitar in the function room. her electric guitar has not been used for so long that the guitar and the amplifier box had baby cockroaches inside!! o.O??? crazy.. i can't believe such a good guitar has gone to waste.. it just pained my heart when i saw it on saturday...
anws we went up to the house at 11pm and watched some stupid chinese show thing.. then it was lights off by 12am. then i told weile about some life stuff. tim was listening too haha. all the stuff i told weile was important for guys to know so i hope he and tim take what i said to mind. cos i was talking from experience ah.. so warning them before it's too late haha..
ok then next morning we woke up early and did Quiet Time and then had a macdonald breakfast. reached church in time for 8.45 service.
yes, that's our fun youth comm day. and it was not gay or boring, unlike what david thought it was lol..
i haven't really been watching the olympics. for reasons such as i'm not very interested and singapore also not in many competitions. also since i don't really have the time cos i'm out of the house quite often having school and football trainings. the football is also quite boring. good thing EPL has started again and liverpool won our season opener away to sunderland:) torres again, unsurprisingly. the liverpool website said that in rafa's 5yrs in charge so far we have not started the season at anfield, so it's pretty unfair. but nvm, at least the first 3pts are in the bag:)
37 games to go!!!

happy national day one and all
yay 43 years already...
ok now let's talk about the celebrations.
yesterday i woke up at 4.30am, did my Quiet Time, then went to serangoon stadium to run 9km at 5am. clocked 47:25. bleagh... i think that's still not up to standard. i want to reach 5min per km. then went back home to take a bath, then went to school at 6.25am. we walked to CCAB to have our celebrations there. but i slept while they were having all the songs and stuff. then i woke up when we had to do the 3 dances but i stood still anyways. until the last dance where we do the CJ mass dance and i partnered wei jie so he spun me around like crazy til i was left sprawling on the floor when the dance was over and not able to get up cos i was too dizzy lol. super fun:)
then met ryan and renyi at j8 subway for lunch and talked. cheang came later with his friends.. then i went to the library with the NY boys. they did some studying while i did some big business in the toilet. then we went to long john silvers later cos ryan needed to eat an early dinner before going for church. then cheang met us again. ryan went to church, so me, cheang and renyi went around looking for a gift that renyi wanted to buy for his friend.
afterwards the two of them went off and i met yiying for dinner. she ate LJS first, when she finished eating we went to S11 foodcourt for MY dinner. haha. cos i want cheaper food:p
we left for church at 6.45pm. it's the first time i've gone for DBS. it was really good! i think uncle alex can teach very well. and we didnt stick that close to the book but discussed more relevant questions which is the best:) i dont like sticking to the book. it's not relevant enough sometimes. from now on i will go for DBS if i can. cos usually fridays i have football and it ends quite late. and the last 4years of sec sch my NCC was always only on fridays and ended close to 8pm that's why i couldnt go for DBS for 4 years. haha.
tmr after church gonna stay at gramma's house for 10days cos mum and dad are going away. i think there's not really a computer there so i won't be able to use the internet for awhile. quite troublesome. i needa pack a lot of clothes. cos everyday i need to wear uniform and pe shirt. most people only need to wear pe shirt twice a week for pe, but i got football trainings on wednesday and fri, plus need to go gym on tue, wed, thur, and run on thursday and saturday. then also need to pack for sunday's clothes, etc etc.. and my boots and shinpads and jerseys and everything. not to mention my bible, QT material, and school books, etc.. etc.. wow that's alot..
