water bombs
i went for the fun games in the morn in the end. we're like 1hr late. hahas. super hot sun. but i had fun. damn tired. felt super unfit.
after that. church games.
honestly, i had alot of fun just watching ppl play twister. the water bombs were fun. plus the soapy sheet and all.
i went there, with one goal in mind- to really have fun with ppl. i didn't bother to take photos and stuff coz this time, i really wanted to be part of it all. hahas.
thanks to ppl who organised it and all. no thanks if meetings were like overly sceduled if it was just those. but nonetheless, i really had fun and gd to see ppl enjoying themselves. i've never really been involved-involved. its always me and the camera. though i enjoy it too, i guess sometimes, i need the time to be in it.
u see. this is what we lacked.
fellowship
aiya.
dont want to say and whine anymore.
oh yea. hahahahs. the most funny thing ever i've seen in my life.... kathy wanted to throw a bucket of water on ppl. it was abt 1/3 full.. ahahhahas. then she flicked..... and it ALL splashed on herself. some of us saw it and we really had a gd laugh. aunty sandra, jov, and some girls saw too. i couldn't stop laughing for 5mins. not that i'm mean, but kathy laughed too. ahhahahs. super super funny. she was all out to get ppl wet but got herself even wetter. hahahahhahas. should have taken a video of it. CLASSIC max.
so in the end, dinner.
i wanted to stay on. its like not just ordinary dinner but like hot plate in church sia. but then again, i promised mum out for dinner. sis' bday today also. in the past, i would like reject my mum and stayed on to have the fun. but somehow, i felt that i needed to go acc my mum, sis and the small girl (cousin's daughter = niece?) yea. had fun with them 3. laughed alot too. girl was too cute and funny.
if only, dad was around. i'm sure it'll all be complete and super duper fun max. ):
looking back. when i was v involved in church in the past, i gave up alot for ministry time. even if it means to leave mummy alone in bugis st shopping .. i would. though she's perfectly fine with it, it's still damn sad rights.. unless u're like emo and looking for a breather...unless... lonely sia.
i rmbr sat was fully for teens time. sun was fully for service and outings. we hanged out every sunday unless it's exam period. i didn't have much hang out time with mum. dinner at home doesn't really count. its different.
now since everyone has their own meetings, i'd hang out with mum. i feel more joy honestly. i duno if its because i'm growing up or i'm being more distant with the ministry... but i'm sure that family over friends is probably the right thing to do. thus, i conclude, do everything in moderation. even if it means to sacrifice something in some occasion, do it because that's also probably ur 'responsibilty'.
finding the line to moderate can be tough i guess.
like eg. exams vs ministry time. ya ya, exams come first and its like duh. at times, ministry time can be also crucial right. i think it really all voice down to 2 things. 1) you. 2) ppl around u.
1) you. you need know what u want. what u want to achieve. what's ur priority at that point of time as well as what are the consequences to bear for whichever decision made.
2) ppl around u. sometimes, ppl dont understand. they just choose not to. person A may be feel that X is as impt as how person B does. in another words, to really be in someone shoes, is to really be in someone shoes. no point saying "i understand.. i'll pray for you" when u dont give that understanding/ leeway one lack. talk only. no action. they alwaysthink they know what's best for u even though they are never that that position. u can advice, not instruct or give that indirect-forceful-yet-contemplating tone. so on this pt, ppl around u plays a part in making the journey, though same, smooth sailing, or rough rocky.
whatever.
bottomeline, i had alot of laughs today w/o thinking of any other things. did alot of things today as well. one of the recent rare days that i can really make full use of the full day. (: amen to that.
after that. church games.

tragic
only word to describe the game rp vs nyp is tragic.
rp played so well... they were up 1 at first half. then... 2-0 to rp. abt 10mins into 2nd half.. nyp scored... 2-1. then. 2 mins b4 whistle blow.. nyp scored again.
thus. 2-2, pushing TP down the board.
NYP's really really good in making comebacks. should watch their games. puts u at the edge of ur seat.
i tell u. this polite season is epic man. it's anybody's game. if SP is to win NYP, they'll be champs. dun want to think anymore. ):
from a petty point of view, i would just say yea.. it's the refs fault at all. even for the rp-nyp game today.. some were touch first then score. but the score was awarded. hahas. i guess when ur mind is set on smth.. there might be perceptual errors. hahas. best is to be obedient, listen to the ref. refs makes the final decision. i guess if i was in that position and if my side lines ref aren't helping, i wouldn't be able to make gd calls as well.
haiya!
i dont think the word 'disappointed' can be used to describe anyone's game...all i can say is that the girls wanted it alot and have sacrificed alot for this competition. they've done their best and i'm proud of them. i'm sure marli is too. everyone has worked so hard, together. sometimes, things are done, cannot be undone. just got to respond more positively, and then move on.
and again, the theory of wrong place wrong time can be applied. hahas. is there a proven name for this? ahhas. should just call it the marian's downright theory.
on the way there, i was talking to one of my friend.. whenever i look at the team and look back at the past. i always regret making certain decisions that causes losses. my mum always nag at me.. "u see la. always like that. think think think. then do alrdy.. regret. what for?". i dunno what she meant anyways. hahas. HAIZ.
sometimes, i dont know that is it that i want to be.
i just know that i want to enjoy myself really make gd use of my time. perhaps i'm taking things too seriously? maybe i know, just that the external environment wavers my stand. ): my self-esteem is really hindering me from performing my peak. sumpah!
on another pt, u know, it's like 2nd wk of sch and all.. looking at things, i'm actually scared that i may just turn to an introvert. hahas. ya ya. go laugh. i was sharing with amanda b4 trng that i realised that i'm becoming more weary of making friends withs guys. its like... i dont want to expand my circle of friends anymore. i dont mind girls. hahas. but towards guys, i get damn scared to make friends. like there this time.. this guy went up and did a very causual hello-whats-ur-name thing.. i was like.. hellos.. marian.. gtg. hahas. omg, i really hate them. :/ such a strong usuage of word huh.
omg. introvert SIOL.
i hope i'm not turning to any nerd-geek freak. i duno how has my past relationship has impacted my future life ahead. hahas. i may just need some counseling or even see a psychiatrist. hahas. jokes.
i think the bottom line is this,
i need to be more positive in life. i cannot be a perfectionist. i can work hard, but not strive to be a perfectionist. cheh cheh. probably take one step at a time? not a very gd idea but the safest. for now, its sunig selection for bowling.
later. it'll be find time to train with pirates. and cross all my fingers that bowling does not touch weds which is highly impossible for now. as for the rest, we'll see how.
i need God more. i feel that in times like this, i tend to want to carry everything on my shoulders. i dont want to share with anyone who wouldn't comprehend. can't believe u had the power to alter my life like that. u know, in 3 days time, it's gg to be the 3rd yr that we didnt have a proper conversation at all. hahs.
smile more marian. like really smile more.
on a lighter note, i know how to kill and cook good steam crab. hahs. went ntuc to buy a crab. $11.34 man. big one. felt like eating. AHHAH. so saw my mama shifu process of killing it. and later steamed it. HAHS. i can cook nice steam crabs alrdy.! (:
and. TMR IS RTT. i have to pass it. if not, i'll be very upset. wasted one whole month waiting alrdy. i need a bike to travel all the way to clementi man. $7 a day of bus fare is way too costly. full tank petrol is like $5. and more convenient.
okok. pray for me. may all the road wisdom sink in my head from 2-3pm tmr so that i can pass big time.

marginal cost
tough luck this time mans.
both teams played well, we just lacked that little edge today.
this yr's season's like so unpredictable. drama shit.
no one know's whats gg to happen next.
but no matter what, i'm still v proud of the girls for all the improvement and hard work.
omg u know what. yh knows that i have this blog. tsk tsk.
hahas. on the way back. was chatting with tingting abt SIM and her UOL. ahhas. i regret RMIT u know. hahahs. maybe for now la. both are gd. just that UOL offers more flexible hours (choosing sch days), no more projets, exams that require 34 marks to pass.. u have like 3 months to study for exam...and its Direct Honours... 2 yrs. mine's like fixed timetable which is like 1 lesson EVERYDAY (except for wed. but i have trng then) at timings that take away the whole day.. aka. 330-630pm. then more projects that require stringent outlines, exams that u have to pass (i duno wad's the passing mark), just a degree. but its for 1.5yrs. but then again, i'd rather spend half a yr more.. then can play for SIM more. hahas. enjoy every last bit of playing for a sch.
whole day aching from ytd's running around man! so unfit now. :\
long long day tmr.

the 5 of us
so today, had touch orientation. for the new comers 5 of us only man! hahas.
only i play b4. so like damn wierd.
lucky got some of the snrs i see b4.
we played games..got one big bruised on my right knee.
felt tired man.
i miss the girls. the tpiranhas. i wonder how are they all feeling now.
ended at 830 and i reached home at 1015pm.
wed have one more session i think.. not confirmed though. but i've got another trng at cedans.
my first pair of boots ever. (: it was a gd oversized one.
oh wells. i hope this is a start of another beginning. dont want to make wrong decisions.
last night. rough night. a moth in m room. i hate creepy crawlers to fly around when i'm like gg to slp. its ok if i'm awake and not in my room. too many blindspots. ahhahs. then blackout. omg. hahas. scared max. so i slept in the hall. didn't slp till 5am!!! chicken heart.
b4 i went to slp. i was trying to be still. to communicate. THEN. i realised.... THE 40 DAY PRAY FAST IS ON GOING NOW. ): i am damn sad. i like missed the chance of doing it together with the world. either i continue from now... which i feel its abit incomplete.. or. i start next month. feel so sad. but one think i do know is that, no on told me that i'm late, but God. so i feel like.. wah. God still cares for me although He's got like billions and trillions of little individuals to watch over.
2nd wk in SIM alrdy. today's forming grps was the most epic ever in my live. ppl grping with strangers. ppl asking to join grp. ppl splitting. whooots. what a 15mins.
tmr, 830am sch. 7pm pol-ite in NP. i think i should go home first.
on an inner note, i should revisit the distinction between 'like' 'crush' 'love'. i hate all these lovey dovey feelings. maybe i'm running away. maybe i'm in denial. i just hope i know what's best for me and the ppl around me. i seriously doubt that i'm confused. just the running away part makes everything seemed like carbon dioxide in limewater. aka. chalky. aka. blurry.
u know what girl, i'm sure u do know that no matter what happens, i still love u. (:

chinatown
didn't want to go xxxxxx today. HAHS. sorry thong! hope it went well.
in the end, i was able to meet mummy sis broinlaw in chinatown for alittle bit of shopping and dinner at chinatown. i missed the whole part of the 3 of them shopping for the traditional chinese wedding stuff at chinatown. ): the red buckets.. teapot and tea cups and duno what else.
bought a waterbottle for home use. can put tea sia! hahhas.
and she bought me a transformers-spiderman toy which i was eyeing since last nov.
wanted to post some photos of old ppl watching MJ's concert at some dvd shop. hahas. i think everyone knows who's MJ now. as i was saying.. ya.. i wanted to post some pics. then then.. while using picasa, ACCIDENTALLY DELETED IT off from the SD card. cannot recover! ): i d/l some recovery progs.. managed to recover abit. so yea. dont want to post alrdy.
ok.
dear friend, i'm writing this to you because i care for you.
just to let u know, to pass u the stuff today, i quarreled with mum because today, we're supposed to go together to shop for my sis' wedding stuff. she didn't know i was meeting u btw. she scolded me that if ppl want to borrow stuff should come to my house and get it. and i guess if u know me well enough, i wont want my friends to come all the way to my place if i'm really willing to lend them my stuff. i'd rather make the effort to make things more convenient for everyone right. yea. so we quarreled and they left the house w/o me. and on the way, it started the rain. and rain heavily. i'm not gg to blame it on the rain, but i hope u do know that rain do slow things down. and, when u called me for g today, i was alrdy out of the house. that's just to show that i did leave my house early alrdy. and u do know that i stay far from u. so yes, i was 27 mins late. i dont think i want to say sorry for being late. initially, ok, i felt bad for being late coz i know the feeling of making the effort of being early to wait for someone who's unreasonably late. but because u really showed ur :/ emotions all over and also through the phone call, i decided not to apologise because i've already made all the effort. yes, u can blame me being petty, but i do want u to know smth. rmbr the time u shared with me some stuff in pengerang? yea. i rmbr telling u that in life, things do not go as planned. and the only way to make unchangeable things better is altering ur responses to it. instead of feeling negative (which does not change the outcome), be positive abt it. i'm sure u're alrdy aware of this. i came all the way down to pass u the stuff. to hear u say 'thank u' makes me feel better. i wanted to explain all these to you at the station but i guess when anyone's overwhelmed with neg emotions, explanations/arguements won't work because no one is willing to be calm enough to take a step back and be in each others shoes. yea, so pls, be slow to anger. be patient. i've tried my best and i hope u're also to.
on a lighter note. hahas. pls use it with care k! dont scratch it coz its for all my presentations and stuff. i only have 1 k! take care.
i hope u know that i mean u well and will not blog childlessly to cause emotional hurt.
in the end, i was able to meet mummy sis broinlaw in chinatown for alittle bit of shopping and dinner at chinatown. i missed the whole part of the 3 of them shopping for the traditional chinese wedding stuff at chinatown. ): the red buckets.. teapot and tea cups and duno what else.
bought a waterbottle for home use. can put tea sia! hahhas.
and she bought me a transformers-spiderman toy which i was eyeing since last nov.
wanted to post some photos of old ppl watching MJ's concert at some dvd shop. hahas. i think everyone knows who's MJ now. as i was saying.. ya.. i wanted to post some pics. then then.. while using picasa, ACCIDENTALLY DELETED IT off from the SD card. cannot recover! ): i d/l some recovery progs.. managed to recover abit. so yea. dont want to post alrdy.
ok.

colourful words
today, i said the most no. of colourful words ever in a time phase of 1min.
tp vs nyp today.
i felt that the girls really really really wanted it alot.
they fought hard as a team.
and like what i've said many times, sometimes its ppl that are either at the right place, right time or, otherwise.
i dont think anyone wanted the outcome to be like that. and honestly, from where i was sitting and trying to shoot, i CLEARLY saw the down first. i am sure, that the spectators saw it as a CLEAR down first.
i guess we'll just have to respect the ref as it is and be a gd sportsman.
when the game ended, i was really... speechless.
not that NYP didn't deserve to win or what, but like... v v v wasted it. both teams wanted it. TP wanted it alot. things just keep happening. both teams kept they're 6 touches. but TP was in their danger zone most of the time and used up 6 touches to get near to their scoreline b4 they could do more.
i guess a draw would be be the most appropriate? hahs. who am i to decide anyway. but as a ref, i do know that when i doubt and if the side line ref's not sure, it's best not to make major calls but to set it up again with a roll ball. that's what i've been taught and learnt.
tp has been the defending champs for POL-ITE for 3 yrs in a row. and each time, the fight's never been easy. coach has put in alot of effort and energy, and so has the players, gearing up not just physically, but mentally.
well,
not all's over yet. do not loose hope.
anything still can happen.
ok. so on my life today, almost late for sch today coz i missed bus no. 5 (saw it leaving while getting off 87) and waited for another 25mins!
on bus no.5, though crowded, i managed to find a seat. i place my big bag on my lap and leaned forward. i dont usually do as i'd sit lower and lie back to the max. but today, i just did that.
then just infront of me, there was this guy reading a book with no pictures; just like any other boring story book that i wouldn't take notice of.
somehow, my eye got caught on a few words of the book. probably out of curiosity.. i dont know. but, i know, i dont do that in life, but today, i just did that.
the first words i saw was.. "... as some girls was shopping with their friends...." or smth like that. i thought it was just another teenage story book. then his hand moved and blocked the whole of the left page. i looked at the right page.. then i saw.. "... our Lord God love us to..." and kena blocked. i have never tried reading someone else's book but today, i just did that.
from then, i tried to read more.. and saw more words like 'God' 'faith' 'love' 'want' 'to' 'holy spirit' coming up. then i realised it not just a story book but a christian one. instantaneously, i knew that oh man! its another of God's creative ways of reaching to the lost. last time, it was someone's orientaion t-shirt. now, it's this.
then he turned to the next page. on the last part of the left page.. it was a verse. it read.. "Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to.. Romans 12.." and his hand blocked parts of the paragraphs.
so then. i turned my head away and rested on my big bag.
i gave much thought about those words while waiting for the bus to reach sch.
all i know what strucked me was... 'be constant in prayer'. and i knew i wasn't.
in lectures, i thought abt this. i was paying attention in lecture though! but when she's not talking or during discussion, i just thought abt that, and even msging my friends to help me refer to their bibles for the full verse.
so now, at home, i've just checked...
from the NIV version:
"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another."
and from the ESV version:
"Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another."
so ESV was the one.
looking at it part by part, it is speaking to me with regards to the different situations that i'm facing in life now. be it self-esteem, discipline, faithfulness, dislikes and so on, it's just another chocolate bar to booast me on.
haiz.
this morng + the game + the colourful languages...
= marian's mindconfused in a whirpool now.

the big go round
wa lau.
i made a stupid mistake today. trng was at chevrons today. U KNOW. it's kinda relativly near sch ok.
THEN.
instead of taking the bus OPP sch, i took the SAME SIDE. omg.
followed the right procedure of changing bus and all. and found myself at FAR EAST, 720PM.. i left sch at 645pm and though i would be like early by reaching at 730pm as trng was a 8pm.
WENT ONE BIG ROUND. sch SJI fareast holland queensway SP clementi then finally chevrons at BoonLay Way.
the most dumb thing was to pass SP at 810pm which is like 1hr 40 mins from the time i started the journey. and to SP from sch takes no more than 15mins.
ARGH.
so frustrating!
i got the information from the SBS bus service. i got in a hurry, using the sch com and not scrolling down to read the details which was to change side. and THERE'S EVEN A STRAIGHT BUS, no.52. HAIZ. technically, i'll take 20mins rather than the near 2hr.
haiz. tiring ok. the pains.
i carried my bowling ball to sch today. i'm too lazy so i only brought one. enough to kill. left the house at 645am, changed 3 bus- 87, 5, 151. fastest combination alrdy. and reach sch at 830am for a lecture that started 30mins late, 1hr into course structure and another 30mins for an intro on Market Research.
ended at 1120pm then. 4 HOURS BREAK. lesson suppose to start at 330pm but dragged till abt 345pm.
seriously. when ppl are given 3hrs, they think they have the whole time in world and take their own sweet time. then towards the end, realised no time then rush the last part. unlike TP, we utilize the 2hrs and even able to end early.
BIG WASTE OF RESOURCES PLS.
so trng today. late.
same stuff. played game. top 6 sponsored for SMU doubles. i think i did ok-ly. just that for 3 frames in a row, lost the line and couldn't pick up the spares. but i spared a 3-6-10-7 split today! (: my score weren't fantastic but was ok. i told coach that on that day, i have sch. if not i would have bowled with manda!
): so much for having ONE LECTURE ON A SATURDAY. and MUST BE THAT SAT.
haiz. i'm so filled with irritation. hahas.
oh yea. SIM is really flooded with TP ppl. everywhere i go i see TP ppl.

day one in SIM
ok. it took like 1hr to get things settled down to lecture proper.
lecture was a waste of time because we all have learnt it. she talked more on the project. i tell u.. the project is like.... fill in the blanks and put it in report format.
u know, it TP... we're just given a paragraph of instructions. that's it. then no help. go do everything urself while learning the chapters.
today, omg... she totally like spoon fed us max. like give us the outline.. then nvm. even tell us the content.. this section how many words and so on.
and give us indepth examples to how the project should be done.
omg. i dont want to be complacent man.
but this is like.. i think if any TP marketing lecturers were to sit in with us, he/she would smile at us with mutal understanding.
i miss estee joelle vonne gab and jamin.
HAIZ.
so. i bought myself a Manhattan Portage bag today. the most expensive bag i own now. its 100% waterproof, 80% of this wk's allowance plus 100% of the reminding savings i had for 2 wks.
i'm left with enough for tmr's trng with SIM. and tadah. gotta dig out money alrdy.
anyways. TP's first pol-ite game with SP today. we're like damn scared. cold sweat pls. ahhas. but on the way there, i had this feeling that they are so gg to win. i duno how, but i know they are gg to just win this.
true enough, the game was tight. but soon.. TP did they're own magic together.
i guess it really shows that u dont need v v strong individuals to win a team sport.
so what if there are club players amongst the opponent or strong individuals whom the world would want to mark.... TP proves that if the team wants to win and win it together, anything and everything is possible. (:
i am so so proud of them. so very proud.
((: coach's shiok max arh.
hahhas.
yea. today. also, MAVIS LAST NIGHT IN SINGAPORE. )):
i am so so gg to miss her. no more trng buddy, bus parter, teh halia customer. this is stage 1 of loneliness. next is deedee. then next is....

eventful gym day
hahahs.
so today, i went church on a sunday after for so long.
i actually wanted to go for service. i woke up.. then like... aiya, dont want. then go back to slp.
that's like major ill-disciplined.
honestly, i went church in the end because i needed to pass some ppl some things and mroe imptly, meet dearest ulrica for super ultimate gym day. ahhas. my long lost gym partner.
so,
quite eventful. i'm actually v happy to see all the friends whom i love and those who love me lots lots. hahahs. so many happy ppl to catch up with.
then.
i realised some of the adults indeed, noticed that i've been MIA also.
then the thing is this.. i have three adults coming up to me and asking... "eh... i heard u and eveleen changing church is it? and is it to COR?".. i'm like.. WHAAOOORRAAASSS. hahahs. champion. amazing such a rumour can spread even when i'm not around.
think abt it. my roots are alrdy in church. i'm baptized, confirmed and have promised to serve this church with my heart. i just need some space for now. i need to get out for now.
anyways. i've also heard that the worship ministry has changed quite a bit. in a way, it was an outcome that i predicted/ expected since everything's like that.
btw, i dont like ppl who take up responsibilities and never live up to their promises and thus doing things halfway. period.
so anyway, back to the pt, true enough, uncle james called me to go over...talked to me abt mission. seeing the list having a long list of ppl wanting to go, i'm happy. i miss benjamin from P village. wonder how's the nose and if he's able to like talk to me alrdy! hahahs. oh man. the village i really want to go is P, M and CC. (cant say the names due to like security reasons). i heard we're gg S sch this yr also. hope the youth team is strong and have lots of ppl.
while talking to him, i noticed the 40-day prayer book beside him. i gasped.
i took one, and i did not pay $1.
every yr, this fasting thing is like a turn around for me. for some reason, i'm particularly dry towards july aug and this is the 'event' that really make me change my gear back uphill. last year and last last yr, i knew i did not complete 'the task' coz i was too distracted, giving myself too many excuses alrdy. i had the mission trips to back me up then.
this yr, i think it's gg to be special and v memorable. i have no idea what i'm gg to fast on yet. i'm still thinking seriously abt it and hope that it'll work my relationship with God big time.
yea, big time.
i pray, and i need your prayers. (:
so. gym with ulrica was excellent. GO TOA PAHYO GYM. the EnergyOne gym. BIG man.
ESTEE. I DATE u there ok. its like.. the gym is big. then the girls toliet.... 2 LEVELS MAN. level 2 is the locker room. carpeted and damn ATAS.
then then, level 1's like the jacuzzi and the steamer. the steamer is like sauna like that... super hot. ulrica and i cannot take it. hhahas. every 4 mins or so we would like open the door to breathe. ahhas. is like.. the only thing that u can sit there, nua and perspire like mad and get angsty. hahahas.
ahhas. so yea. after all the many machines.... felt damn nau after all that. weighed ourselves b4 and after... like no diff like that. hahas. should go there more often.
non SAFRA member's like $8. safra... $5.50. ex, but i think its super worth it. everything provided.. towels and hot bathing water. shiok max.
i think my right arm old injury come back. quite scary when i tried to lift some weight. haiz. also, must do more core and back strengthening!
okok.
after that, met mummy poon and sis for dinner. maybe i'm getting older or what, i like gg out with them for dinner. last time, probably still a young deliquent, i felt that dinner with friends more fun. but yea. oh wells.
SCH IS FINALLY STARTING TMR.
abit scary coz alot of things still uncertain.
but one thing's for sure, i dont think i wanna slack in this place.
so today, i went church on a sunday after for so long.
i actually wanted to go for service. i woke up.. then like... aiya, dont want. then go back to slp.
that's like major ill-disciplined.
honestly, i went church in the end because i needed to pass some ppl some things and mroe imptly, meet dearest ulrica for super ultimate gym day. ahhas. my long lost gym partner.
so,
quite eventful. i'm actually v happy to see all the friends whom i love and those who love me lots lots. hahahs. so many happy ppl to catch up with.
then.
i realised some of the adults indeed, noticed that i've been MIA also.
then the thing is this.. i have three adults coming up to me and asking... "eh... i heard u and eveleen changing church is it? and is it to COR?".. i'm like.. WHAAOOORRAAASSS. hahahs. champion. amazing such a rumour can spread even when i'm not around.
think abt it. my roots are alrdy in church. i'm baptized, confirmed and have promised to serve this church with my heart. i just need some space for now. i need to get out for now.
anyways. i've also heard that the worship ministry has changed quite a bit. in a way, it was an outcome that i predicted/ expected since everything's like that.
btw, i dont like ppl who take up responsibilities and never live up to their promises and thus doing things halfway. period.
so anyway, back to the pt, true enough, uncle james called me to go over...talked to me abt mission. seeing the list having a long list of ppl wanting to go, i'm happy. i miss benjamin from P village. wonder how's the nose and if he's able to like talk to me alrdy! hahahs. oh man. the village i really want to go is P, M and CC. (cant say the names due to like security reasons). i heard we're gg S sch this yr also. hope the youth team is strong and have lots of ppl.
while talking to him, i noticed the 40-day prayer book beside him. i gasped.
i took one, and i did not pay $1.
every yr, this fasting thing is like a turn around for me. for some reason, i'm particularly dry towards july aug and this is the 'event' that really make me change my gear back uphill. last year and last last yr, i knew i did not complete 'the task' coz i was too distracted, giving myself too many excuses alrdy. i had the mission trips to back me up then.
this yr, i think it's gg to be special and v memorable. i have no idea what i'm gg to fast on yet. i'm still thinking seriously abt it and hope that it'll work my relationship with God big time.
yea, big time.
i pray, and i need your prayers. (:
so. gym with ulrica was excellent. GO TOA PAHYO GYM. the EnergyOne gym. BIG man.
ESTEE. I DATE u there ok. its like.. the gym is big. then the girls toliet.... 2 LEVELS MAN. level 2 is the locker room. carpeted and damn ATAS.
then then, level 1's like the jacuzzi and the steamer. the steamer is like sauna like that... super hot. ulrica and i cannot take it. hhahas. every 4 mins or so we would like open the door to breathe. ahhas. is like.. the only thing that u can sit there, nua and perspire like mad and get angsty. hahahas.
ahhas. so yea. after all the many machines.... felt damn nau after all that. weighed ourselves b4 and after... like no diff like that. hahas. should go there more often.
non SAFRA member's like $8. safra... $5.50. ex, but i think its super worth it. everything provided.. towels and hot bathing water. shiok max.
i think my right arm old injury come back. quite scary when i tried to lift some weight. haiz. also, must do more core and back strengthening!
okok.
after that, met mummy poon and sis for dinner. maybe i'm getting older or what, i like gg out with them for dinner. last time, probably still a young deliquent, i felt that dinner with friends more fun. but yea. oh wells.
SCH IS FINALLY STARTING TMR.
abit scary coz alot of things still uncertain.
but one thing's for sure, i dont think i wanna slack in this place.

packing
i've delicated this day to pack my room.
and i'm still not done packing.
too many things that i want to keep alrdy. just cannt think logical.
life w/o u is really incomplete.
i've learnt to let go. but. i dont like things to be left hanging.
one day, someday, both of us will regret. regret that things aren't sort out properly.
i'm just waiting for this day. another 10yrs more?

taggged
some of us went all the way to bukit batok to play this 10 + 10 mins game.
i had fun. (: hahas. i'm sure everyone did.
sometimes, i hold back blogging alot.
as i share my happy times, posting photos of who went to this, who went to that, ppl get sad coz either they aren't 'invitied' nor rejected the invitation coz they aren't free. then they go around being emo and all. so thus, it's my fault.
so, instead of blogging as freely as i can, i think b4 i blog. sometimes, i hold back simply because i care too much, sometimes i leak out my emotions with intentions of getting my voice across.
u know last night, speaking to estee over msn was the best ever. we can superly talk nonsense out of thin air even when she's kinda down and i'm kinda tired. then we just laugh all the way... just like how we used to do out side LT 21. hahas. honestly, i miss doing the projects. even though it was indeed stressful with the deadlines, e effort tgt was really all worthwhile.
at 1.30am now, i have alot gg on my mind.
sch. family. church. sports. friends. relationships.
many a times, i want the best of both worlds. so much so that i cannot seem to comprehend the word 'sacrifice' to really execute it.
ppl go through different phases in life tgt. like the decisions of choosing a sch. the season where all the fast food outlets are filled with ppl studying the same thing. now, its ppl leaving. ): i've real gd friends who have left... and more gd friends who are leaving...
auzzy is really gg to be a place for singaporeans. most of my 'away' friends are there.
Thursday, July 09, 2009
her last
mavis' last trng b4 she leaves for auzzy.
last dinner.
last bus ride with truck loads of emo songs. hahas.

MJ
michael jackson has impacted the world.
right now, even CNN has live converage for FB online.
youtube and all other networks are flooded with his video streams.
it was also reported that several search engines jammed when news of MJ's death spread last wk.
imagine if MJ a who believes in God. would he have changed more lives of many?

SIM bowling
ok. so today, 1st trng.
yea, i went.
did normal drills, weight trng and stuff. ahhas. i didn't bring spare ball. played game and got 173 after not bowling for super long. so not bad. hahahhaas.
the team...
kinda better that i expected. better control. hahs. i think there's quite alot to look forward to. the guys tough competition. everyone's gd. saw super lots of familiar faces from the bowling circle. from the pol-ite.. from the nationals.. sajc ... everywhere. i like. (:
the girls.. i heard there's alrdy like 3 national bowlers and another one that's national standard. hahas. quite competitive for team 1.. but team 2 not that bad luh. i alrdy feel competitveness on day one of trng. *winks winks SIA at amandaasssss*
ahahhas.
so at the end of the day.
priorties.
this time, i can choose because i'm not under any STAR programmes or what. so yay. but there's also club touch on weds and trng might be on weds.
i guess for now, since SUNIG (sg uni games) is around the corner... focus on bowling i guess. i've got no details of touch yet.
we'll see how it goes.
but ultimately, i'll follow my heart, and do well in my studies. my God take control of my decisions. maybe not control because i dont think God likes to control his children. more of like.. may He be the center of my decisions and may it be honouring to him.
everything's like in the west. like today... BUKIT BATOK. i really need my license soon.
i am sooooooooooooooooo going to work hard.

missing
playing on the field of TP was fun again.
missed the girls.
hah! but out of 4 games, only played like 2 halves. refeeing 1.5 games. hahahas. ok la. but i had fun!
then out with mum.
then neighbour saw us waiting for cab home. tompang us sia. damn nice neighbours. warm feeling sia. ahhahas.
then talk talk talk... talked abt dad. the aunty misses my dad.
i think i've really underestimated the impact that my dad has on the community. ahhas. we have like ppl coming to us saying... they miss our dad.. the estate like damn quiet and stuff. tsk tsk.
yea. saying saying.. and its like.. whoas. 6 yrs alrdy since i dont have a dad.
thinking through.. i really feel that 14 yrs with him is not enough. my sis had like 23 yrs with him lorrrs. 14 yrs... hmmm... i've probably known some friends for more than this no. of yr alrdy.
haiz.
imagine dad was still around.
i really think life would be different. after such a long time, i can say that i'm probably experiencing long term effect. ahhas. gd thing is.. it doesnt seem all too painful. but.. i realised that i've changed. i didn't know that i've been unknowingly / subconsciously relying on him for alot of my joyful cells. i know that when he was around, joy was everywhere. the house was warmer. mum was more logical and stuff like that.
now that he's not, i can't seem to find that X joy. it may be because of my downhill sloping relationship with God now or smth else, i dont know. all i know is that i miss him, and with him around, life would be more complete. this void is like pernament man.
marc and aaron too lost their dad recently. i guess coz they are guys, they'd probably feel a deeper sense of lost? i mean like.. if my mum was in my dad's position... (TOUCH ALL THE WOOOD IN THE WORLD), i would have been more lost, confused and alone max. yea. but any oh hows, my dad treats me as his son anyway. so does my mum. so it doesn't really matter. i do wear my dad's clothes u know. hahahahhas.
u know. the thing that can make me physically cry in public is like those warm scenes whereby the dad cares for his kid or smth. those in shopping centre kind whereby the teenage girl puts her hands around her dad's neck telling him all about sch and the dad will be like saying working is more tough and so on. tmd. i can like cry as if i'm watching a sad movie man. i guess thats my weak spot. ahhahas. tmd.
haha. loser.
i duno.
i guess i can count myself lucky in many ways. i dont think many ppl has ever felt this deep sense of lost, void and incompleteness. something that has play such a significant part in ur growing stages, u see everyday, u play with everyday... gone within a wk. just like that. and the fact that knowing that u can't get him back no matter what u do. in times like this, u feel that the word 'gone' is being used too casually. to me, 'gone' means u can never get it back ever again.
when i was young, i played with my dad alot. using my mum's curlers, tap water and heat from my mouth to curl his hair. hahas. watching the olden chinese films, i'd use pick-up-sticks to STYLE his hair sia. hahahs. mum would be the one doing the housework and all.. dad, his shifts in the SIA were.. X X Day Night. i'll never forget. sometimes work over time till 11am. then buy back A&W breakfast for me. in pri sch, mum and dad would take turns to bring me down for my sch bus at 540am.
omg. i'm not emo.
just having this very... i-miss-you phase.
erks.

sportspoon
i think i'm so lazy that i dont even reply nice smses.
i dont even want to go out with nice friends.
haiz.
u know. sportspoon does dancing. does photography. does sports. and more sports.
but u know what, honestly, the only good thing that i feel that i have a gift in.. is like music. yet, i'm spending so much more time on other things and like no proper trng in music.
yes, no doubt that i enjoy doing all other stuff. but if no outstanding result, is it even worth all the effort?
ppl are born with different gifts. and not only that, i guess its also like being in the right place, right time.
not being bhb, but i can count all the no. of medals that i've lost because of this.
haiz. whatever la, sore loser. hahas. but like wasted arhs!
stupid mouse. keeps disconnecting by itself. making me use my mousepad. then while playing games like bejewelled.. cannot get high score. AHHAHAHAH.

failed RTT
stupid. so many trick q. i think i suay.
so go to wait all the way till end of the month to take again then i can apply for PDL to take prac 6. i'm so gg to be rusty luh.
bystanding, u see ppl finding back their friends, then making feel that u're just being used to fill time gaps. cool huh.
AYG's opening was tonight.
video crew sucks.
so many hiccups. blur screens.. when dancer dancing, showed some stupid LCD effect screen for damn long.
attendance was like... eehwws. what do the sportsmen from other countries think man. i think this could be more and betterly publictize and up the standard. it better be much better for the youth olympics.
heard that tmr's orientation is postponed due to H1N1 and sch starts 1 wk later?! = longer sch days during the first few wks. ):
damn cold today. damn nice.
cloudy and emo-ish. i like. hahas

changes
imagine i'm taller. have longer legs. ahhas.
i can run faster.
i can see things from a different perspective.
i can be a fireman.
i went simlim today to get a mini speaker.... x-minimax speakers. darn good and portable. good for mission trips. (: also bought a portable-all-kind-hp-charger. hahas. $12. (:
thus, i'm very broke. no money for sunday anymore.
this morng till now, still sniffing! hahas
i think sg is paranoid of H1N1. yea, its gd, but its just any other strand of flus virus.. not as deadly as SARS. but ok la.. thumbs up to the government. at least the tax payers' money are used properly.
i think the world is really like.. trying to climb out of her grave. first the economy all thanks to the Lehmen Brothers.. then now, the virus. then all the tourist dont want to visit. the economy gets even worse. win alrdy lor.
ok, i think this is gg to be a heavy post.
hahas.
i think my perspective on life has been changing. i've mentioned b4... like i'm like 'facing' issues which usually a new-new teenager would face.. and now i'm likeway past that teenager stage, crossing into adulthood. probably now i'm more free, instead of gg to sch, trainings, and mugging my life away, i'm seeing more of the world. the world that's not just about getting gd grades, doing well in sports, facing challenges and PBL situations and then get a gd job and so forth. hahas.
i use to like pass casual judgements on ppl who like smoke, drink, lesbianism and have wierd piercings.... not like totally hate them or what... just feel like they need more life and 'the way'. hahas. but now, i find all of these fine and ok. haha. maybe i'm growing up? being more open, less rigid and mature to take things less seriously? i dunoo. hah, believe it or not, i thought of getting a tongue piercing. hahs. nah.
oh wells.
this is just wierd. i'm probably more laid back and casual now. but i'm quite sure that no matter what, i'll still stick to my principles. i may tend to like slack and not work hard for what i want i life because of the big fat word - 'lazy'. but rest assured, having a spirit that wants to achieve certain goals in life, this will probably be my safe guard. (: hahas..
meanwhile,
although i dont like gg to SIM because there's this existence of a Sports Science course in NTU, i look forward to sch start. not so much of making friends, but more of at least having a direction- shorter step to aim. as in like... stepping stone... ah... short-term goal. hahas. yea, and reliving the feeling of playing sports for a sch/team and so on. this could be my last chance because after this degree, i dont think i'd want to further my studies. i'm happy with the degree unless i'm damn sick and tired of being a fireman.
that's for now.
ppl always change the plan. oh wells.
oh yea. i heard, 'chillin' under the stars' has be cancelled. its like the teens and youth event. HAH. after all the MEETINGS and meetings and MEETINGS... cancelled. seriously. productive meetings = obvious results. but sorry, nothing that i see. ya, blame it on me not being so involved in church anymore. there's so many big /eventful things that i'm totally unaware of.. like Pastor getting sick... elaine came back from auzzy and so forth. hahas. go ahead and say that i'm too overly involved in my outside world, blame it on touch and so forth. i can't be bothered anymore. i dont want to live/work/do things for the fear of Man or pleasing ppl. making ppl happy is NOT equal to living for them.
the irony is this.
i need a clean break now... and seeing that i'm so away from church, i'm still being asked to serve do things everywk. yea... everyweek! ppl say that i shouldn't even be given the privilege of serving if my relationship with the church and walk with God is like that.. something like that. but each time i run, i get pulled back. i'm tired you know. i'm tired not because i've got so many things to do. i'm tired because i don't like doing that things i love. meaning like i find it very very difficult to serve with a heart that's so so darn hard, even though its like playing the guitar, taking photos, making videos.
all these are SELF TAUGHT. i dont see why if someone wants to get something done can don't bother learning the things by themselves at all. just *click, and ta-dah... marian, pls do it. ya ya, call it a gift. but i think b4 u say so, attempt to do some research or at least try first pls. i dont use fanciful video-making programmes. i use WINDOWS movie maker. i'm sure that if the com that u are using now to read this blog has a windows movie maker. Apple has its movie-making thing as well.. and even better pls.
but let me get this right, i'm honoured to do all this ok. well, coz u ppl trust me and my skills and besides, if i give my best, God will be happy. and yea, when ppl feel for the video, i feel happy. that's my aim- to make a difference using visual images... be it photography or videos.
ya ya. go and have your godly views on this and give me all your humanly condemnations. i can't be bothered. i just need time to get away. reflect. seek and listen.
i'm probably confused not but just not admitting to it.
okok. let me try.
the bottom line is this, ppl are too fake and just think that they are all nice kind-hearted souls with the right way of doing things, never seeking alternatives or perspective from a view of another person of another background.
haha, what a sentence... probably sums up this blog post.
i can run faster.
i can see things from a different perspective.
i can be a fireman.
i went simlim today to get a mini speaker.... x-minimax speakers. darn good and portable. good for mission trips. (: also bought a portable-all-kind-hp-charger. hahas. $12. (:
thus, i'm very broke. no money for sunday anymore.
this morng till now, still sniffing! hahas
i think sg is paranoid of H1N1. yea, its gd, but its just any other strand of flus virus.. not as deadly as SARS. but ok la.. thumbs up to the government. at least the tax payers' money are used properly.
i think the world is really like.. trying to climb out of her grave. first the economy all thanks to the Lehmen Brothers.. then now, the virus. then all the tourist dont want to visit. the economy gets even worse. win alrdy lor.
ok, i think this is gg to be a heavy post.
hahas.
i think my perspective on life has been changing. i've mentioned b4... like i'm like 'facing' issues which usually a new-new teenager would face.. and now i'm like
i use to like pass casual judgements on ppl who like smoke, drink, lesbianism and have wierd piercings.... not like totally hate them or what... just feel like they need more life and 'the way'. hahas. but now, i find all of these fine and ok. haha. maybe i'm growing up? being more open, less rigid and mature to take things less seriously? i dunoo. hah, believe it or not, i thought of getting a tongue piercing. hahs. nah.
oh wells.
this is just wierd. i'm probably more laid back and casual now. but i'm quite sure that no matter what, i'll still stick to my principles. i may tend to like slack and not work hard for what i want i life because of the big fat word - 'lazy'. but rest assured, having a spirit that wants to achieve certain goals in life, this will probably be my safe guard. (: hahas..
meanwhile,
although i dont like gg to SIM because there's this existence of a Sports Science course in NTU, i look forward to sch start. not so much of making friends, but more of at least having a direction- shorter step to aim. as in like... stepping stone... ah... short-term goal. hahas. yea, and reliving the feeling of playing sports for a sch/team and so on. this could be my last chance because after this degree, i dont think i'd want to further my studies. i'm happy with the degree unless i'm damn sick and tired of being a fireman.
that's for now.
ppl always change the plan. oh wells.
oh yea. i heard, 'chillin' under the stars' has be cancelled. its like the teens and youth event. HAH. after all the MEETINGS and meetings and MEETINGS... cancelled. seriously. productive meetings = obvious results. but sorry, nothing that i see. ya, blame it on me not being so involved in church anymore. there's so many big /eventful things that i'm totally unaware of.. like Pastor getting sick... elaine came back from auzzy and so forth. hahas. go ahead and say that i'm too overly involved in my outside world, blame it on touch and so forth. i can't be bothered anymore. i dont want to live/work/do things for the fear of Man or pleasing ppl. making ppl happy is NOT equal to living for them.
the irony is this.
i need a clean break now... and seeing that i'm so away from church, i'm still being asked to serve do things everywk. yea... everyweek! ppl say that i shouldn't even be given the privilege of serving if my relationship with the church and walk with God is like that.. something like that. but each time i run, i get pulled back. i'm tired you know. i'm tired not because i've got so many things to do. i'm tired because i don't like doing that things i love. meaning like i find it very very difficult to serve with a heart that's so so darn hard, even though its like playing the guitar, taking photos, making videos.

michael jackson, king of pop died ytd.
shocking news. the world's gonna miss him. though the name MJ has much negative connotations associated with, he has earned the worthy name as King of Pop.
watched Transformers with the cousins today. DISAPPOINTING STORYLINE. the ending wasn't as impactful and powerful as i'd though it'll be. hah. all the marketing. in marketing, we learned that result of the product must match with the level of expectation from the consumers. in this case, i think it was over marketed. the effects was too good. messy yet clean. but the storyline could be improved. oh well. megan fox is hot. the movie has alot of sexual innuendo alrdy (quoted from gland). ahahs. so much for a PG show under Hasbro. ahhas.
well. i'm supposed to be self quarrantined at home. but after 1 day, CANNOT take it alrdy. ahhas. besides, i've taken the influenza jab in march b4 gg to thailand.. and, i'm like not sick anymore. so i think i wont do any harm anywhere. hahas.
should i ride in ubin?

Asian Club Champs 2009
was a gd trip because it was a gd share of touch and shopping.
it would have been better if we've gotten a medal back. ):
we were as close as the last letter of this sentence to the end of this full stop.
to sum up, we lost to Bangers in the semis. we won them in the pool category to get 2nd of the pool. semifinals was like sudden death... and ref had alot of
the semis was really the game that made us really quiet. yea, probably gd because we fought hard, not not hard enough for the first few mins. i really wanted that bad. ):
hahas. congrats to wantocks who won in quite a no. of categories.
hahas.
over the 7 days, i've learnt alot. having many many ice baths in one day, one after each game... watching the mixed category... playing with experienced players..improving after eac game as a team and individually... shopping and shopping and then shopping.
makes me look back at the days i had in Chiang Mai, especially in the villages. northern thailand is so so so much diff from bangkok. hahas.
well, still got alot of learn.
all in all, i spent like about 200 SGD. over the days on food and the transport, not including the ex-but-lau-pok-pok lodging. was sick on wed. flu got worse till like sunday when the competition was almost over. the the coughs came in. hahas. now still quite ok but i dont think i'm fully well.
hahas. wore mask to slp so that mavis won't die while rooming with me. hahahs. :D
thank God, we're all safely back in SG now. i'm sure we got to know each other better and enjoyed ourselves. hope that we can have more of such bonding times in the near future! (:

CDC SCDF
well.
i somehow discovered alot of stuff during revision. ahhas.
then during the dry run before actual test, surya and i did perfect. like no mistake.
then during the test, we got stupid mistakes. my leg, STRUCKED the curb on crank course. coz i tried to kick up to gear 2 but it stucked on neutral gear. soon enough, the bike stalled in crank course = immediate failure.
was damn sian. that's like the 3rd station for the prac test.
then so like for narrow plank and E brake... i really like heck it. just do normal la.
then i really knew that i failed.
then results came. omg. i passed. ON THE 8TH TIME..
could tell that he unwillingly passed me. but because he said my riding was ok.. just that need more consistency in the figure 8 and crank course and more correct posture when riding then can alrdy. i was stunned man.
the students today in prac 5 was fun. or rather, on monday slot was fun. i had fun. (: when i'm back from bangkok, i'm gg to take revision prac with surya again coz i wanna be a safer and consistent biker. i'll try taking other bikes rather than just no. 42. hahas.
i'm happy.
but felt that i dont deserve it.
so its RTT on 29th, PDL and then my prac 6. yea.
oh yea. saw josias driving car in the circuit. i waved, he didn't see. so his instructor called him look at me while he was trying to make a turn or smth. haahs.
so amanda met up with me after that! (:
she accompanied me to SCDF HQ to make enquiries abt my dream and see if i can get some scholarship.
and u know what, damm it, i missed the deadline all thanks to this SCDF staff at the career fair who told me the wrong information some time back. that's not the point. the bottom line is, SAF offers much better welfare and benefits to sign ons. SCDF has practically limited or not so friendly.
and. THE HEIGHT ISSUE. i'm so going to bash my way in; somehow. really dont want my height to be like a big major issue that really blocks me out from my dream.
honestly, when she said all those facts, my heart was crying. drama emo shit. but i told myself dont be too nonsense so as to teari infront of this nice ofice lady and amanda over something that dont seem so significant in anyone's but my life. hahas. on that moment, i realised that i was dead serious about my goal in life but also realizing that i was keeping my options too closed.
after that, walking out the HQ was actually feeling all defeated and beaten because not only i can't get a scholarship (because its non-existent in my context) and may not even get a job there because of my height. i dont want to be a civillian staff. it's a term for describing office ppl in the SCDF. i really want to save lives because i know i can.
tmd.
so i immediately called Ronald from SAF for more advice.
he's actually one of the more senior and higher rank personal in the SAF. met him when i was in yr 2 helping out in the muzino run. we chatted during e event because we had the same views on the way the event was terribly held and stuff like that. during that time, he was looking for a female fitness specialist so he approached me. i told him that my goal was a fireman and super not interested in SAF at all. he respected my decision but told me to think about it. ahhas.
we've been in contact for the past 2 yrs, occassionally updating each other about our paths in life. more like abt mine because his one's a straight road up alrdy. so, i MAY consider SAF as my choice if only it a job gives me a 100% satisfication and allow me to work in other ppl's life, making a major difference. probably meeting him soon to meet more career ppl and get advices.
honestly, i dont mind being a not paid fireman although i still need money to get along. hahas.
HAIZ. i'm still gonna try and persue my ultimate dream, but rmbring to keep my options open.
after that, amanda accompanied me all the way to her sch, SIM to subit form and make payment which i didn't in the end because the nets card wasn't powerful enough to pay the fees. so, i'm gg to hand in late on wednesday because i'm gg for this orientaion there and then. wasted the trip. hated the premises.
went back tamp area. went to sch, collected my awards... then met sam.
aston's at Cafe @ Jurong- the name of a hawker in tampines. hahahas. yea.
chatted. updated. talk our nonsense. we never fail to laugh at our lame nonsense which will turn out funny.
then went to Marina Barrage. take stupid photos and play daidee.
hahas.suppered. homed.
church campers are back!
read blogs and to me, i feel real happy for ppl who feel God there and everywhere. we need more of such opportunities and not just when u're out of our comfort zone or like Singapore. u know, i only recently got to know that Pastor's ill and needed an op. such a big thing and i didn't know abt it only until recently. :/ . worried for him, but i know he's hin good Hands.
(: to meet them.

the curse of the flat tyres
with 9 riders, we had like 4 flat tyres. thus, proving that our theory of the cursed flat tyres exist. we didn't take a grp photo- probably too sian arldy. had security guards making noise for stopping at private property grass. wanted to crash sentosa at first. ):
was actually emo-ing when we passed esplanade. reminds me of the time when donald was around, having heart to heart talks and confessions there sia. HAHAHA.
i felt that i was gg to see some friends along the way today.
i thought i'd see them at rochor..
but first, i saw helmi chew. then, i saw glenn!! (: hahahs. happy to see him. that really cheered me up. been awhile since we've met up and so on. further down, saw elson! hahas. fellow rider, more pro in trails. then further down, saw kaiwen. hahahhas. still the same old kaiwen, my tpsc president when i was in yr 1. hahas.
it was actually all at the stretch of butterfactory. saw hot models. like Eurasian kind of hot. whoots.
so with 4 flat tyres, we couldn't carry on.. just decided to go home. the eastsiders, nic noel ryan and i cycled straight home through geylang. literally very little cars and pleasant traffic lights... so i think we took only like 45mins or less. ahhas.

L & T
yea.
red stem. red pedals today.
makes me love my bike even more. (:
i didn't feel like going to the Awards ceremony today though i missed the people.
ahhas. i nua-ed at home and then went to L&T today to get my bike and see the gang.
i kinda wasted today. i'm left with 2 wks b4 sch. next wk, its like back to pre-busy marian. the SIM orientation, bike prac, gg bangkok and SO ON. ahhas. and, after all these months of procrastination, i haven't packed my room. not so much of finding time to do so, but more of whether did i have that amount of discipline to make the first move.
yes, thanks to amanda, my doubles partner who did excellent marketing skills over MSN last night at 3am, i kinda like.. LOOKING FORWARD TO GO SIM MAN. hahahhahahas. *slaps head many times*
i'm actually looking forward to the bowling team coz its actually very strong. same goes to touch. the bowling team got like GOLD for many events coz of the national bowlers. hahas. but yea, i'll try and get my priority right this time. touch. studies. bowling. hahahs. not a wise choice of putting studies after touch.. but then again.. i think graduating with a slightly above avg results wouldn't be that bad la. no, i wont get complacent. but with the like... 3-4 days of sch per week, hahahs. i'm so gg to raid the CCAs man. if i could handle TP, i'm sure SIM wouldn't be a prob. NTU would probably be a big different story.
ahha. when i unfold each chapter of my life, it gets more slack huh (wait till i get into the working work). ok.. maybe 'slack' isn't the right word to use.. its more.. time efficient and productive. meaning, i'm not just studying my life away, but also doing other stuff thats life enriching... hahas. that's how TP would put it.
tralala. do you know, i FINALLY FINALLY like heck care u alrdy. YES AR. been waiting for this day for a long time. gd thing is that.. well, i'll still rmbr the timesss... bad thing.. haha. i think u've probably altered the course of my life. i think i kinda like someone now but then again, i shouldn't. see. hahs. decision in life. whhhattt only.

yankee.
trng was gd today actually.
i think there's really alot of hope / potential. and honestly, i think we're doing better; learning faster w/o any kind of pressure. like no stupid drop balls and stuff like that. just need to up the sense of urgency and hunger to improve more then will become nice nice.
to me, i felt that as i kinda like teach... i kinda like learn more. its like... u become more aware of the what to do and the what nots. i think it's really gd and applicable to the vision part of the game.
looking back at TP, i really miss TP. what i really miss abt TP is the sports scene and then the marketing lectures and coursemates. we've got the extremes. hahas.
i've probably made some wrong choices. maybe i should have rebelled against SAA and put touch as my priority in yr 1. its probably more enriching and life long.
honestly, the technical side of bowling was really unpleasant with the coach like that and collegiate league a big F. if its not for the super fun loving girls team i had in yr 3, i reall would have died long ago.
i mean like.. for bowling, i've been trying so hard, fighting so hard all these yrs. just as when i was almost up for the national team, something just had to happen and turn it all around. it very sad you know. hahas. plus, lugging all the bowling balls up and down a bus is a killer. the b4 and after trng kills ok.
sometimes, ppl are just at the wrong place, wrong time, while others just get what they want w/o even putting in effort. that's how the world works. it's never unfair. its fair only if u say so.
anyways.
b4 that, i went L&T with josias to get pedals and stem for my bike. ahhas. red ones. whooootts.
BUT. we walked ar.. for 1HR 45 MINS. i was pushing my bike coz jo didn't have his bike with him. so like.. with my speedometer.. we walked like 5km ok. hahahs. around tampines and got lost. hahas. the shop's like some where around sun plaza park there but we walked to duno where.
so,
i left my bike at the bike shop. and tmr, i'll go and zeng it properly with money that i've saved up, and still not buying a flash for my camera.. ((:
now, i'm like looking through all the sites with excellent shiney bike parts. kill me. hahas. so gian about everything man. if only i'm like rich in monetary wise. hahas. nah, i'm still happy, and not gg to accept SIM until NTU double reject me. haha. random.
ok. this email i got from glen. interesting.... it's about a 38pt handbook in life.
Health:
1. Drink plenty of water.
2. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar.
3. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
4. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.
5. Make time to practice meditation, yoga, and prayer.
6. Play more games.
7. Read more books than you did in 2008.
8. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
9. Sleep for 7 hours.
10. Take a 10-30 minutes walk every day. And while you walk, smile.
Personality:
11. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
12. Don't have negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
13. Don't over do. Keep your limits.
14. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
15. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.
16. Dream more while you are awake.
17. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
18. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner with his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.

i think there's really alot of hope / potential. and honestly, i think we're doing better; learning faster w/o any kind of pressure. like no stupid drop balls and stuff like that. just need to up the sense of urgency and hunger to improve more then will become nice nice.
to me, i felt that as i kinda like teach... i kinda like learn more. its like... u become more aware of the what to do and the what nots. i think it's really gd and applicable to the vision part of the game.
looking back at TP, i really miss TP. what i really miss abt TP is the sports scene and then the marketing lectures and coursemates. we've got the extremes. hahas.
i've probably made some wrong choices. maybe i should have rebelled against SAA and put touch as my priority in yr 1. its probably more enriching and life long.
honestly, the technical side of bowling was really unpleasant with the coach like that and collegiate league a big F. if its not for the super fun loving girls team i had in yr 3, i reall would have died long ago.
i mean like.. for bowling, i've been trying so hard, fighting so hard all these yrs. just as when i was almost up for the national team, something just had to happen and turn it all around. it very sad you know. hahas. plus, lugging all the bowling balls up and down a bus is a killer. the b4 and after trng kills ok.
sometimes, ppl are just at the wrong place, wrong time, while others just get what they want w/o even putting in effort. that's how the world works. it's never unfair. its fair only if u say so.
anyways.
b4 that, i went L&T with josias to get pedals and stem for my bike. ahhas. red ones. whooootts.
BUT. we walked ar.. for 1HR 45 MINS. i was pushing my bike coz jo didn't have his bike with him. so like.. with my speedometer.. we walked like 5km ok. hahahs. around tampines and got lost. hahas. the shop's like some where around sun plaza park there but we walked to duno where.
so,
i left my bike at the bike shop. and tmr, i'll go and zeng it properly with money that i've saved up, and still not buying a flash for my camera.. ((:
now, i'm like looking through all the sites with excellent shiney bike parts. kill me. hahas. so gian about everything man. if only i'm like rich in monetary wise. hahas. nah, i'm still happy, and not gg to accept SIM until NTU double reject me. haha. random.
ok. this email i got from glen. interesting.... it's about a 38pt handbook in life.

slow
played laser tag today for the first time. was damn fun. though it was a short 12mins, it felt damn long and tiring... but its super fun. ahhas.
i really enjoyed myself and the company. (:
today the first trng in so long that i felt so tired.
felt that i was slowing everything down.
bad hands and felt damn hard to push off.
but, its good because i'm finally learning alot rather than at one corner doing the same thing over and over again.
just pray that this bangkok trip will really push me up as a player. i've got to step up more and faster. be more patient and calm and really have more confidence. just dont care what ppl think of u. just do and do it well.
so.
tmr's church camp.
not going BECAUSE the camp comm said i was late in replying and so on. haha. hey. i got my reasons k. coz of the sch stuff ok. whatever. i initially wanted to go.. now.. just dont feel like it anymore. last time.. no matter how late the reply was, if anyone wanted to go church camp, they would make effort to do smth abt it. this time.. ah. heck it.
and i thought this could be a salvaging point for me.
well, i can save the money for bangkok though. hah. next wk man! (:
i miss my friends who are overseas, esp geraldyne.
samantha, abigail, STEPHY SIM. ahhas. and, i'm gg to miss more ):

eXtra.
bah.
now they have a CCA priority list.
if only i had that in my time.
then, i can just escape the useless claws of U. L. K. who just knows how to drink coffee with mum and suck in the sch's money.
then, life would be different for me now.
things would be better.
more pleasant.
i really want to get better.
not just to prove to anyone, but make myself feel more confident.
and then, ppl won't give ugly judgments so much.
been hearing things abt 21st dec 2012.
the end of times.
abt planet X and its catastrophic effects.
it seemed to be linked with how the Bible puts it as the coming of Christ, the death of the earth, the end of an era. however, in the Bible, it states that no one knows and no one will know when it'll happen.
however, the sheer similarities between those ppl of gives scientific explainations and the Word of God just gives me an eerie feeling that it may be true. but then again, no one knows.
at the current state of me,
i may just as well be left behind.
i dont want that.
but then again, i deserve it.
i say that i am not worthy of His love. but then again, God is ultimately gracious and forgiving, yet jealous. i, knowing that's right and wrong, chooses the wrong thing. its like u're at the fork of the road, at the entrance of a wrong beginning.
for now, it may just be wrongful mental choices and decisions. next time, it'll be the deadly actions.
i just dont know what i want.
i dont know what i want to achieve out of all of this. i know it really doesn't matter in the end and it's only ur relationship with God is impt.
then here i am, not bothering to maintain it. its more like.. being lazy to do something abt it.
pray for me i guess.
i'm probably just a wrong sheep, limping in an assumption that i'm doing the wrong things right. if my life has to end now, i am gg to be v disappointed. does God have a liquid-paper that erases my name off the book of life?
darn scared. afraid and yet, stubborn.

Nebo
nebo touch today.
honestly, was real happy to play as a TPiranha once again. that drive and everything. somemore, with izzy, syaz and surya. we didn't had a proper senior closure game tgt man. we'd always have RSN. this yr.. no news. ):
today,
i think we're damn close. too close. we should have been more serious in wanting to learn and execute gd drills. gd opportunity to try out. rarely u get a comp that's like competitive and yet relax. rarely.
we're loosing games to like 3-2 2-1 4-3 and so on if i rmbr correctly. its like. ahhas, major wasted. personally, my performance like went down as the day went on. it seemed to take forever to get back onside.
but, on the whole, damn tired.
ytd stl, today this.
but wake up call- need to work on my fitness bad.
went meet up with friends after that. haji lane shisha. safest w/o the toxic shit.
fun to just chill out. but feeling damn tired when u're all dirty and still sticky.
sch's in like 3 wks.
i haven't sent in acceptance letter.
neither have i paid sch fees.
all i think of now is cancelling all my road trips.
and waiting for NTU to double reject me. ): damn sad.
u know.
sometimes, i feel that i'm always at the wrong place, at the wrong time. its not like the instantaneous situation kind. its like those kind... u feel that the world is so bloody unfair. i duno how can i elaborate on this w/o making myself feel as if i'm damn arrogant or what, but seriously, things just keep slipping through my fingers. and u know, i think its time that i start choosing my friends. not materialistically, but really base on how they are to you. also not say like practially or what, but really, follow what ur heart says. no point clinging onto it so hard. u know, sometimes, ppl can really tell if u are really genuine or just making use of u? yep. thats the thing. ya ya. bible says thou shall love ur enemies as urselves. hahas. but they are not my enemies, they are just...the not so nice and genuine friends.
another one.
to stay or not to stay.
everyone seems to be leaving. those staying are those who's gonna leave soon for studies overseas. one thing, i can say that i've grown much in this club in terms of skill wise coz i'm out of the old environment. yea, i've learnt.. but that's only like during the 1st 2months when we're playing so darn well tgt as newly formed team... even thrashing other clubs.
then, reshufflements. rearrangements w/o prior notice or information to our players. then the total negligence and eventually led to like. 2-5% attendance of the team.
TA-DAH. we lost every game.
tragic huh.
if i'd leave for somewhere else, i'm not sure if i'm able to grow. all thanks to my inferiority and deep down self-esteem, i hinder all my room for improvements. chickening out to try more things on the field. tmd.
HAIZ. damn sian.
should just stop all these nonsense and go into full time mountain biking, getting more severe and mulitple injuries each time.

20mins
one of the longest 20mins ever.
3 subs ar.
against blacks. quite happy i scored one today.
but i made the stupidest mistake ever.
u know when u do drill.. sometimes u dont do with the defenders. so i called a move with claudia and i dump the ball infront of her w/o anyone infront of me. hahas. the refree also like stunned tio. hahas.
yea.
met up with estee hakim dal and roy seet today for dinner. nice. (: been long since i sat downa and talk nonsense with these bunch of ppl. HAHA. missing tp ppl man.
the mayan calender (research youtube for this) is sad to end on 21st dec 2012. the Bible states that no one knows when will the Lord come onto earth again. false prophets will emerge and more disaters and illnesses. just like now.
anyway.
i feel so so... tied up now.
why is referrant leadership so essential now. this leads to biasness and questions of friendships.

went back to see the finisher of the marathons. so proud of our church guys man. (:
oh yea. sat morng. we lost the impt semifinals to UWC.
there goes another medal... after alll the long months of hard fights and committments. i think STL should award 3rd placing since there's so many teams in one cate. tmd.
so after last night, this morng, blacks funtouch. almost died. i think we didn't really play well. we had many many many scores out of the deadball line coz we're blind to see the small side cones.
