timooo an honest mistake? April 8, 2007 - Subscribe

i realised last night while taking bus 12 home that actually almost everyone i know have alot of misconceptions about me. some positive stuff which are not true, and some not-so-nice stuff which are not true either. i just dont like it when people say things about me which arent true, even if they are, like, positive/complimentary. i just hate it when people think im lying when i telling the truth (for once) and when people think im telling the truth when im not. this is a crazy world.

timooo bad day no more April 11, 2007 - Subscribe

wanted to blog the past few days but i cldnt cos even after singnet cut my broadband they cut my dialup as well, so ive been out of touch from the net. anyway, on monday i went to school deciding that it wasnt going to be a bad day, even though it had all the makings of one (arsenal drew newcastle, i missed my usual bus, i left my earphones at home, etc). yeah anyway i decided that i cldnt stand everyday being such a bad day, so i decided to change my definition of a bad day. i used to define a "bad day" as the days i woke up before 10 am or when arsenal lost to some little shit club. but then, that would make all my weekdays bad days! and my sunday would be a bad day too! and i cant stand having so many bad days. so now a day is only bad if i didnt have a good sleep, and if i reach school with my socks wet (read: rainy day). so the chances of having a bad day is less. (: had jap food for dinner at suntec on monday with family. er that kuishinbo place or wahtever. ate til i was totally stuffed lah. woot. saw a ds and a psp when i was going home from tampines today. which reminds me.. that digital life article yesterday. it drove me nuts lah, the way most people thought the psp was like the king of handheld consoles and the ds was crap. some ignorant female psp owner claimed that only the psp could surf the web and watch movies and listen to music. which is not true, cos the ds can do it too, and more. much more. does psp have a touch screen? no. does psp have 2 screens? no. does psp have voice recognition? no. people are so totally stupid sometimes. jus because the ds loooooks cuter, they think its useless. its NOT! anw shall go now. adios (: tag chris: arsenal ah. its jus a lack of confidence. nothing to be worried about :s clement: well, then why call it a merger? jus call it a link up, or something. a merger's a NO. justin: hello! it HAS been a while. heh. anw any day in vs would rock. bec: umm. well. sort of. jiejie: i only used it to appease you! it really doesnt sound right (: khyrul: uhuh. anyway i think the answer is no. weijie: cos he's totally interested in china? haha

timooo block post April 14, 2007 - Subscribe

the singnet repair guy came today. yet, now im still using frigging dial-up. he spent 2 hours repairing my house's phone line, and it still doesnt work. so now it could be my modem's problem or my computer's problem. and he just left it at that. doesnt explain what i should do now, or who next should i look for to solve this problem. just doing all that he is supposed to do, and no more. that's the whole problem with singapore service standards. as long as they do what they are required to do, that's it. ta-ta. byes. adios. there's never such thing as going the extra mile. all that GEMS thing earlier on is totally crap, cos no one truly cares about it. to the people at the top of the company, its just about making sure their service quality is passable so as not to incur sanctions or get scolded by the authorities. they don't care whether the consumers down there actually get any proper service. and the sadder thing is, people here are so absolutely used to it they dont care either (with the exception of some). you deserve to be treated much better, you fools! that aside, yesterday was a pretty packed day. well, i'm talking about musicfest and all the hype that comes along with it. actually i think the real highlight of yesterday was what i had for dinner. ate some real food at aston, after a week of "no-fried-food" in school. the canteen's chicken rice just tastes different without skin. anyway, had a delicious dinner yesterday. got back to school for musicfest. i wont say it wasnt worth my 12 bucks, but i expected so much more cos its like this totally hyped-up event that the whole school wants to go for. if it wasnt so overhyped, i would probably have enjoyed it more. i liked the mtvs and the dances particularly. and reuban, that slippery guy sliding around the stage. woot. super slick. at first when i saw the housecomm video, i thought it was an absolute winner. but that was til i saw the hockey video. totally rocks. hmmm didnt really enjoy the vocal segments and the bands though. saw terry when i boarded the bus at bedok, who went to watch musicfest too! somehow i didnt see him in vj. anyway, yesterday was also the release of pw results. i got an A! our whole group got A! :D honestly, when the pw groupings were first announced, i thought it was, like, the lousiest combination in the whole class. cos i thought that our group lacked a powerhouse, someone imba, who could raise the level of our project. that actually turned to our advantage. since we were all of the same mould (ahem), it was easier to work together. we didnt have to drag people along or push people around or anything. cos we knew we didnt have anyone that we could particularly rely on to do all the work (e.g. jh, yw, etc), so we jus had to do the work together ourselves. i guess i would say that being the weakest was our strongest point. seriously, right before the results were released, i said i would be happy to get a C or better. so, i really thank god for this unprecedented result. shall end here before i start boring people to sleep. adios. (:

timooo forum April 18, 2007 - Subscribe

what should i blog abt today? there's like loads of stuff to talk about today. school, random observations, arsenal winning (: , the victorian merger issue forum. shall start with arsenal winning. fabregas scored his second premiership goal of the season, and also his second goal of the week, in this morning's 3-1 win against man city. yay! a volley from 25-yards out. speaking of soccer, the top few spots arent that interesting anymore.. im keeping a lookout for the relegation battle instead. i hope charlton stays up, and watford, west ham and sheffield go down. *crosses fingers anyway jus came back from the vs/vjc merger forum jus now. i expected the 500 seater vs auditorium to be full, but less than half was actually filled up. most of the people in the crowd had white or graying hair, or people who were well dressed and looked important, or people who looked jus plain victorian. if the issue was decided by the people who were present at the forum today, there definitely wont be any merger at all. the forum was more of a sharing of ideas, emotions, kinda thing rather than discussing a proposal of how the victoria brand name could move forward. though of course, being victorians, this should be expected. (the jewish guy rocks. totally) upon reflection, i shld have changed out of my vj tshirt. since a certain bast*rd of a pe teacher was sitting jus the same row as i was, staring in my direction. probably trying to memorize what i look like so that he can easily hunt me down tmr. anyway, in the end things started getting abit emotional (NOT crying kind of emotional, please) and many people just kept asking for an extra 1 minute to talk even though the facilitator wanted to stop the discussion quite long ago already. hah shall go sleep already. adios

timooo not a sceptical post at all April 23, 2007 - Subscribe

im surprised im still alive now cos im still on my 44kbps as compared to the 3Mbps i had jus 20 days ago. ahh how time flies. anyway im in a good mood now. actually its pretty fun to be in a good mood instead of all that cynicism and the total skeptic i usual am. but then, good things never last too long. see? back to the usual cynicism again. had a nice dinner in some supposedly cantonese restaurant. though there was this tiny little setback. it was in marine parade! and the problem with that is, it was like almost directly opposite parkway parade (which im totally sick of after spending the past 6 years of my life schooling near it). i get really traumatized by small things like these. but anyway, the food was nice. i'll be keeping my eyes on that calories burnt counter on that step machine the next time i head down to the gym. though i might have already forgotten all about it by then. anyway im back. in case you're wondering from what, my com hanged twice jus now. hanged. doesnt sound right. hung? hmm. whatever. anyway ya it jus froze halfway. so i was thinking if i cldnt get back this post i jus wont blog today, and that'll be such a pity. mozilla firefox's "restore session" feature saves the day! dump IE, get firefox-ed today. *says in that serious, deep commercial kinda tone* so, despite having gone swimming on friday and east coast yesterday, i havent darkened much. mei thinks its very funny.. calling me mr snow white. like, ha ha. though its quite true. since young since i was a child, i'd always had the kind of white fair skin those tai-tais using SKII would die for. maybe not the tai-tai in our class lah (ahem). anyway that changed gradually as i grew up and started losing that "fairness". i lose my darkness so quickly that it's useless to go suntanning or anything jus to get darker. which is why im resigned to only being able to satisfy the "tall" part of "tall, dark and handsome". 1 out of 3 isn't too bad i guess. anyway im reeeeeeeally looking forward to school tmr. so i really need my sleep. adios (: tag yw sadly, its jus the beginning of a new nightmare again. weijie yah damn cool. wad to do, vs guys. haha chris yeh u too. (: *waves in unker-ish fashion s1771m haha nt wols lah. thanks :) cs yup. cesc rox huh? ;) josh hmm cos the skin was done by a girl. and tts a song by avril.. who's a girl. ya. hope to see u soon! 23 April 2007 23:14

nothing much happened today really. as usual, the class gathered at the concourse after lessons to decide where we were going. and after like 15 minutes we werent going anywhere, so we went home. actually i went to the gym la. surprisingly, there were very few people at the gym today, which is good. no starers standing around waiting for you to finish using the machine, no one approaching you to share the weights, lots of space to walk around. left my wallet in the toilet when i left.. only realised it when i was walking to the bus stop. anyway this nice guy took it and returned it to me as i was walking back towards the gym.. such kindness is so hard to find nowadays! tried to read my econs notes in the afternoon but i fell asleep in my nice red armchair, only waking up when it was time for dinner! moral of the story: don't study in the comfortable red armchair if you really want to study. did you know that there's a family of lizards living inside my living room's air-con? there's a really fat one, a not so fat one, and a baby one. as long as they dont decide to migrate to my room's air-con, im fine with them being around. shall go read some econs now.. this time at my study table. adios (:

the irony of having my broadband back is that i hardly have time to blog now, cos i dont hafta wait ages for a page to load. anyway its been a pretty sinful week for me. had bk last week twice, then haagen dazs treat from jiejie ytd, plus oreo mcflurry yesterday as well. not to forget today's ultra oily, juicy, crispy drumstick. slurp. told mum that im gonna fail napfa this week, and she said i was being too pessimistic. what pessimistic? its more like, realistic. im not one who floats among the clouds all day cos i simply cant stand it when everything jus crashes back down to earth. of course, when you add all the sinful stuff into the equation, its almost a certainty i'll screw napfa up. anyway, this morning started out really well. such cool weather, almost reminiscent of hk's weather, meant that i enjoyed a fully comfortable journey to school. mondays should begin like this every week.. i'll be having such great mondays! in addition to that, arsenal won fulham. i think fulham was so wrong to sack coleman.. lawrie sanchez has only taken 1 point out of 9, which is probably worse than what coleman could have done. shooting themselves in the foot. i think i can declare myself bankrupt in advance. not because im going shopping though. firstly, i owe a certain somebody 9 bucks, and he'll probably hound me tmr for it. secondly, a movie ticket costs 9.50 tmr. thirdly, i still owe a certain choir member 10 bucks for the ticket. fourth, i'll probably hafta chip in money for that choir member's bday present as well. fifth, i need to get that vitaC eye revitalizer. i need more moolah, man.
