Teachers' Day celebration today. Yup , I went. Guess this is the most practical present for Mrs Leong for being present. Anyway I didnt do the dance. Wont be caught dead in doing such stuff. I dun like such dance anyway. So me and KY stoned there like extras chatting away while the rest of the ppl around us enjoyed themselves. The rest of the celebrations in hall was ok. After that went home changed then had a boys' out : soccer. PK , KY and me first went to PK 's area there to kick about then had lunch there then was supposed to play around Toa Payoh but no avail. KC and his frens didnt join us in the end. So the 3 of us ended joining KY's teammate and frens at Bishan for street soccer. There were about 8-9 of us. It was great. Feels just like a return to the lower sec days when me and my friends frequently played soccer at Sengkang. So many years never play soccer because these few years specialised more in shooting hoops. I scored a double hat-trick but my personal standard wasnt that good. Stamina dropped a lot too. Sometimes too lazy to run. My side won overall. I prefer street soccer than actual soccer in the field really. More incentive to play better I guess. Tired but an afternoon well-spent with the lads.

These few days I have been listening to Huang Yi Da 's Ni Ming De Bao Bei. Never heard before until that day at Zpop Concert then immediately come home download. lol. The lyrics are really meaningful and I like the melody as well. That 's wat the criterias I look for in a good song. My first time translating a song without help , pardon if there's any mistake.

匿名的宝贝

我思念在你眼中那一片海水 有一种让我心痛的美
于是我选择自己孤单的睡
下半辈子让我不相信的理由 我想是你对不对
你是个匿名的宝贝 藏在我心里的眼泪
不管你带走了什么 我都因为爱过你觉得美
永远不忘记你的我 像一个孤魂和野鬼
在这个世界上受苦 风吹雨打我都无所谓

你是个匿名的宝贝 藏在我心里飞呀飞
如果还能有那一天 请你 回头看我一眼醒了没
不必安慰我 你知道我不累 哦 爱你怎么会累
再一次站在雨中看著天黑 我觉得我在人海里 潜水
带你的名字飞往东南西北 我要让这个地球上
除了我再也没有人能知道 你是谁 你又是我的谁


Anonymous baby

I missed that piece of seawater in your eyes. , a feeling which hurts me but yet is beautiful
Thus I chose to sleep alone by myself
The reason that lead me to disbelief in next life , I guess is you right ?
You are an anonymous baby , hidden amidst the tears in my heart
Regardless what you brought along upon ur departure , it's beautiful because there was once I had loved you
I wont ever forget you , just like a lonely soul and wild ghost
Living in hardships in this world , all sorts of tortures I am fine with them

You are an anonymous baby , hidden in my heart fluttering about
If there is such a day , please , turn back to see whether I have woken up
No need to console me , you know that I am not tired , how can loving you be tiring
Once again standing in the rain , looking up in the darkening sky , I feel that I am diving among the crowd of people
Flying to East , South , West , North with your name , I want to let this earth know that
Without me there's nobody else who knows , who you are , and who you are to me

Dedicated to : an anonymous baby.

Wishing all Teachers a Happy Teachers' Day also.

Woahh. Zpop Concert was GREAT ! This is the first time I went to this type of concert and I have never been part of the idol-chasing gang. Never even attend before any autograph sessions or anything. Not even S.H.E 's. Haa. Even though I am not the enthu person (u wont catch me waving glowing sticks in the air or prancing around or screaming my lungs out for idols) but well , the atmosphere was really there. the fans were simply crazy especially those front rows ppl. A large turnout as expected (they expected 15000 people) . Everybody was high. As I told my mates , as high as the sky , that is. lol.

Met up with KY to go eat at PS foodcourt then we went to meet XY and YK who were with a few of their CCA mates at BK at MS for them to eat finish then we proceeded to Padang which is just a short distance walk. Missed out the 15 finalists of Channel U 's Next Big Thing because it started at 4:45 p.m. but by the time we reached there it was already 5+. Luckily we didnt missed out the opening act at 6 because..the opening act was Nan Quan Ma Ma !! 1 of my favs. They sang Tracks 1 , 2 , 4 , 6 respectively of their album. A bit disappointed they didnt sing Track 10 aka "Jia" which is 1 of my fav songs from their album but nvm because they compensated by singing Xiang Cao Ba Pu aka Track 2 aka my very fav ! Super nice. Then subsequently other acts began to follow out. The main theme of the Zpop concert was horribly sang by 3 equally horrible guys. lol. Dunno wat were they singing. And Stella was so beautiful in her pink outfit. All the groups and singers got almost equal fair share of support but F.I.R and Energy got the loudest cheers from the ground. It was expected because they simply rock. F.I.R performed 4 songs and the female lead singer Faye was so touched that she cried. All the acts belted out their latest hits as expected except maybe some songs I like to hear were not sang such as NQMM 's "Jia" and F.I.R 's "Ni De Wei Xiao". A fat guy standing beside me was darn enthu. He was practically cheering for everything throughout and prancing about. The people around him was sniggering at him , including us. V.bad indeed. He was too high alright , guess the sky was not enough for him. He can have the universe if he likes. Then President Nathan was also present for a while to give out tokens of memoirs to the performing acts and some certs to some organisations' people and artistes from Channel U. 1 interesting thing happened was that when Ho Yeow Sun performed boos could be heard. Then people from the back began to throw their glowing sticks to the front. Even though throughout the concert there were occasional throw of glowing sticks to the front but it seems that when HYS performed she got the most throws. lol. Wander how she felt up at stage. So obvious. We were kind of thirsty and aching because of long hours of standing but I wasnt thinking of the aching. I was mentally tired because I was very thirsty. In the end up to the part when Ritchie Ren sang his songs me and KY went to buy drinks for ourselves and the girls. We left around 10:45p.m after Energy 's performance. The last act was the Korean guy (forgot his name) but dun really care abt him lar. Just left. Lots of ppl were also leaving too. Pity the Korean guy. They shouldnt let him be the last act and should just let Energy's explosive performance be the finishing icing of the cake. Wander how he felt up on stage too. lol. He must be v.discouraged. Anyway the four of us left home via train. Alighted at the same stop with YK then sent her home and since there was no more bus for me I just took 240 home.

Wow wat an experience. Perhaps next year I will go again but I will better prepare some water beforehand. Hope they invite S.H.E or Jay next year or sth. That will be great. Nan Quan Ma Ma had better come again too. aha.

Regarding the matter mentioned in the previous entry , actually it was really nth but slight misunderstanding. Resolved. Wont elaborate here. =)

A long long entry. I am too tired to think of anything or do anything now. Heading straight to bed then wake up do work.

Sayo.

These few days were a bit in a "switched off" mode. Managed to meet TCP's dateline yesterday for the assignment. Phew. It was last minute work but I had no time last week to do so had to pay the price of sacrificing other stuffs. I wasnt really happy over 1 of my mates' remark in the canteen yesterday. Surely , though it may seem nothing to others , all the work I had fulfilled was not just worth a bottle of pink dolphin. I am not obliged to help u noe , but because it's my responsibility and also within my area of capability I do it. Nvm , I wont dwell on the matter.

Was in town yesterday to cut hair. Tommy was on leave and I wasnt willing to let Raymond cut my hair so I went to another salon which specialised especially in punk style. The hairstylist Denise helped me carved out the lines again. Think this time is more extreme than wat Tommy carved for me the first time. Anyway this is the 2nd and last time I carving lines for this year due to my plans for the rest of the year. Perhaps next time I might consider shaving it all off.

Later meeting my mates go Zpop Concert. Should be happening and fun. Laters.

This week was a hectic and tiring week. Thursday was a horrible day. Everything went wrong from the start in the morning till by the time I left school at 7+. Friday was a good day because all lessons were good especially cla tutorial which was fun as there was a mini quiz among ourselves. After sch KY and me guest starred in my mates' filming project. Kinda hilarious and interesting. Saturday had cla paper 1 test. A Grade is being kissed good bye. Amen. Went for lunch later with my mates then we went for a talk as required at NTU by some Taiwanese professor about gradual decline of traditional chinese culture. V. difficult to comprehend wat she saying. There were jokes around among the 5 of us though. Kind of like haha-ing session for us. An interesting point to note was that during the Q & A session only 2 out of the many ppl who had questions were Singaporeans. One can infer quite a lot from this. After everything we went to eat at LJS at Jurong Point b4 leaving 4 home.

Today went to do CIP for Singapore Cancer Society from 9 - 5. Very tired but this is the most fulfilling CIP I ever done. Simply because me and my clique did alot and didnt slacked at all to be frank. I was with KY most of the time and we had lots of donors at a particular place which was great. All sorts of Singaporeans we saw today from different backgrounds and all walks of life. The both of us completed selling our bags of daffodil pins and after lunch at mac we went to Bugis to help out Irene and Joanna who had difficulty in their selling. Serene they all joined us soon after we rested at the bubble tea shop then together we went back to town to give back the stuffs then excluding ZH and KG we went to watch "Open Water" at Lido. It was the worst movie I have ever seen to be frank. It was worse than a documentary show in some discovery channel or even worse than wat Miss Ng can offer for us to watch during GP. We were like lamenting about being cheated. $8.50 somemore. blargh. Walked around then took neoprints at Far East b4 all of us parted 4 home. Me and KY went to Bishan Popular for me to scout 4 some external sources then I took 240 from there coz it was getting late. Tot of rushing home to eat dinner with my mum as I promised her but she went for some dinner function so I ate dinner alone while chatting with my sis. Very much wanna pon sch tml to rest fully just for 1 day but I cant coz tml there are too many things to do. Haiz. Today's heat was unbearable and my head is kind of heavy now. Shall sleep soon.

Have to find time to meet up with various datelines for due hw this week. Am looking forward to this coming weekend.

Life is a struggle , but I am fighting on.

Overall GP was manageable yesterday. Shouldnt be a problem unless something goes horribly wrong.

An extremely tough week ahead. Amen

No tests today , not even the expected history spring test. Everything will be crammed to next week. bahhh. Next week will be super xiong.

Felt bad when I talked to Huang laoshi yesterday. Then today was delayed from releasing early. This has not been a good week. Been hit by a week long barren of unlucky spell. All sorts of things happened. Luckily I have my pals with me otherwise is really excruciating to shoulder all these alone. High time to reorganise my schedule and manage time more efficiently.

Been receiving some lame mails with some contained weird stuffs and anti-virus programme cant very well prevent them. I suspect my singnet mail which I hardly used had been auto-spammed with auto forwarding msgs and spams to the contacts in my address book. My apologies to those who received mails from my singnet mail. They are NOT sent by me as I only send mails through my hotmail a/c. Pls dun open it and delete it instantly. Thanks.

After quite a long break (actually it was only 4 days) , today was back to routine life again. Morning woke up to the worst start ever which I wont elaborate. Today almost everybody was caught by surprised by an econs spring test. I wasnt prepared at all. Damn. Kind of slack today because every wednesday is a short day. Went to TJC for Vietnam War talk. My 3rd time at TJ premises. The talk was alright though a bit boring.

Actually had a lot of stuffs to blog but forgot wat to blog le. Am still contemplating about tml 's schedule. Lots of tests springing up and there is a test on Friday needing lots of eating up and though I going to lac a lot on cla and just concentrate more on my other 2 main subjects especially econs from now but still I dun want to fail in any tests. Sian. This really sucks and I absolutely hate it.

National Day

Today is National Day as Singapore celebrates her 39th Birthday. Happy Birthday Singapore ! Nothing much interesting that happened today. Watched the parade live on TV just now and just like every year 's celebration it was magnificent , especially my most favourite segment of the army contingent. It must be v. honourable to be able to be part of the various prestigious groups. Sometimes even thought of myself oneday maybe I could be just like them. lol. Think too much perhaps but still , a dream can sparked one to achieve in greater heights right ? That serves as motivation to excel. Anyway watched a bit of the premiere of Singapore Idol. Admired their courage to present themselves in front of national tv though I think in their heart they knew even if they did not qualified as long as they tried their best they are not losers but winners at the end of the day as they did at least gain experience and learnt something. Very much inspired by William Hung huh ? haha.

Alright shall sleep soon. Happy tt today managed to finish hist essay and another set of notes even though throughout the whole day I was practically slacking around and being unmotivated. Tml shall devote time just on econs.

Friday

Shouldnt have appeared in school today if not for attendance. Anyway skipped the dumb treasure hunt thing and other activities and stoned around with my clique till 11+ b4 I left for home first to rest and changed. There was supposed to be an outing among us cla ppl but ended only 4 ppl which comprised of KY , XY , YK and me. We went to Cine to watch Shi2 Mian4 Mai2 Fu2 aka House Of Flying Daggers. Quite alright the show. The sceneries were v. exotic and exquisite. Typical chinese shows' ending of no gd explanation for the ending. The entire show was full of twists and turns but actually it was haha-ing through out. Kinda funny especially the part where Takeshi Kaneshiro showed off his skirt-chasing abilites. Andy Lau's 3 years cant even be compared to Takeshi Kaneshiro's 3 days. Kinda sad that part. Overall out of ten I give it 6.

After that KY left for home so left the 3 of us. We went to walk around then eventually went for pool then dinner. Introduced XY and YK to go dine at the restaurant Sherlin introduced to me last week. It was great food. Within budget somemore. After that left for home via train then me and YK alighted first while XY continued her journey home. Waited with YK to see her board her bus safely first b4 I turned to board my own bus home.

Today

Was supposed to go meet a friend to catch up over coffee but in the end nope so I stayed at home to do wat I am supposed to do. It feels good to be able to complete the planned work on the schedule. These few days I see myself home-bound to complete the rest of the planned work unless some special circumstances occur but the possibility is less than 1%.

Jay Chou just released his 5th album Qi Li Xiang not long ago on the 3rd of Aug. The next day I already had all the songs + Qi Li Xiang MV. lol. Anyway my fav tracks are Track 2 , 3 , 4 , 6. The rest are quite ok but it doesnt appeal much to me compared to the mentioned ones. I think Track 4 is kind of cute. I like the lyrics. Maybe can dedicate to my ah ma. haha. My most fav is still Qi Li Xiang. The MV is nice though personally I prefer the girl from Qing Tian MV rather than the girl in Qi Li Xiang MV. Some jay fans among my mates also shared the same opinion as me. Anyway this song also spurred some creative juices in me recently to write up a compo for the compo competition. Till then , shall see whether they like my work.

I wont put up any more midis or songs because I think is kind of noisy. Most likely I wont change my blogskin layout coz I really like the head on the left. My apologies again to those who have to highlight to read wat I typed. I will fix the counter thing at the bottom when I have the time.

Just finished Kellett 's essay , which is the last homework of the week. Is yet another week that is going to fly by. These few days I am kind of moody. Hope this mood is not permanent.

Yesterday morn wasted my time at AJC to sit in as audience for some current affairs quiz. Think my fellow mates share the same sentiment. Could have jolly well pon. Wasted my morning. Went home did some work and bathe then in the evening I went to meet Sherlin. So long since we last catch up with each other and I am glad to see her yesterday. Waited for her to knock off from work then we went to have dinner and pool b4 I sent her home as it was getting late and she still got work the next day. Manage to catch the last bus home myself.

Off to dinner and then continue my stuffs.
