74 or 52? ( A Matter Choice)
Long long time ago, there was only 1 single direct bus to SIM. That was the long established bus no. 74. All the way from hougang interchange via amk, marymount, bukit timah road and clementi road.. to its depot at bouna vista.
During the peak hour, the frequency for 74 was quite high..but as it passes through amk, it's always crowded.. and due to the route taken, the number of bus stops and the frequency of bus stopping to pick up passangers, number of traffic lights are uncountable. On the brighter side, the route taken is not always congested.
But sadly, 74 is always so packed with students.. and the number of getting on and off the bus took the journey to SIM a full hour* or so. The worst part is, not being able to get onto the bus. Sometimes, it's just too packed to get on.. and due to the amount of time spent to allow people to squeeze onto the bus, the schedule is delayed. As such, 74s behind soon caught up, and the whole lot of them just got stuck together. On the whole, the journey is quite a bad experience during the peak hour.
Just about a year ago, number 52 was introduced. It followed the loop service of 410 around bishan before reaching thomson road. 52 comes by once every 15 minutes. From its Bishan interchange to Jurong East, the bulk of the route lies on PIE. Regardless peak or non-peak, there is always some seats left. The whole journey is just a mere 20-30 minutes* on average depending on the traffic and weather condition of PIE.
On really bad days, an accident on the PIE can cause the duration of the journey to balloon to a whooping 1 hour*.. that is, an increment by 100%! And as all drivers know.. Expressways are prone to jams.. especially during the morning peak.
A choice between 52 or 74 meant one important thing - time. On the one hand, 74 has a more predicitable outcome, that is, the solution to reaching school in the fastest possible time is: 1)Be early.. very early 2)Be late. As such.. being ON time is just wasting time and making people pek chek.. coz the bus is packed like sardines. Slow but steady.. (provided that you can get onto the bus in the 1st place...)
On the other hand, 52 makes things seems so peaceful that there's no buffer zones for errors. When the bus is "late", the whole journey is delayed. It's even worse to be caught in a jam on the PIE. It's fast, but unreliable.
Setting off early is out of the question.. coz the whole point is to maximise nuaing time and minimise travelling time. Going to school early is just "wasting" time, staring blankly at the tv screen show CNA.
That is, one of the many choices to be made.
When it comes to going home, both buses stopped at the same busstop. As usual, 74 is crowded, but with high frequency. 52 is less crowded, but comes only once in a while.
The return trip is slightly different. Since it's out of the peak period, a usual ride on 74 return trip takes 35 mins* on average. 52 still clocked at 20 mins* Which makes both services comparable after considering the waiting time of 15 mins for 52.
So now.. the question is.. whether do i board the 1st bus that came? Or should i wait for the prefered bus? (note: this is not similiar to 184 v 154 (clementi) - journey are too short to really make an impact)
And now.. i realised that even if 74 comes along, i'll just hesitate to get on. I wanted to wait for 52. But if another 74 comes along.. i'll just board it. (when 52 doesn't come.. i assumed that there'll be a lot of people waiting to board it.. making the bus pack.) Which makes me wonder.. what the hell am i doing? I'm just wasting more time! True.. i can act on a 1st come 1st serve basis.. but given a "better" choice, who wouldn't want? But come to think of it.. before 52, there isn't such problem at all.
More choices are better? I don't think so!

Answer below.. (note: the following contains spoilers..)
Hahahaa... a bo liao entry that i wanted to post long long time ago. Just didn't find the time to be bo liao. Anyway, taking 74 or 52 is a trival matter, but the underlying basic principle is the same. Not about whether choices means more alternative.. but rather, when choices are presented, which will you choose?
It's only clear when one knows which alternative are available.. and also, the arrival of these alternatives.. Are they there when you needed one?
It also reflects the way how some opportunities work. Some came knocking twice.. and when it came by the 2nd time, will you grab it? or will you stand by your choice?
LOL.. and i'm not even thinking a lot. Don't say i think bloody too much.. this entry is meant to de-stress de.. haha.. anyway, 3am now.. and still going for FI tomorrow morning.. LOL... and i'll still take bus 52~ lol.. maybe just set off earlier lor.

Triggered
While waiting for the sumptuous dinner appointment, i was triggered by some things i read online. Began searching through my old entries.. and i discovered the changes for the past 2 years.
Nowadays, i seldom blog about how i feel.. all the entries are about what i did. It seems, i've "slowed down in growth" recently. Have things become so "peaceful" that there need no attention to alter my personality? Well.. i guess not. Some things have changed.. while some things remain. Once a while.. i still can see the same problems surfacing. I'm not so ignorant as to not know what i did was not acceptable.. but sometimes, our own ego got the better. Or should i say.. it always? Well.. but i'm certain, i ain't the only 1.. i've seen worse. But eventually.. it's about myself.. so i guess, i have to be aware even before it start acting up again.
I chose to avoid the emotion part is just because.. implied things are so weird.. The irony is that, the more i try to avoid misrepresenting, the more people tends to misunderstand.
But looking back.. i do understand myself better.. and i do see changes, however minute.
It's all about ups and downs.. and however bad the situation is.. we just have to manage it. (Learnt in FI today) Of coz.. it's also about relativity.. things only move when there is a cycle. There might be no peak in how happy a person can be.. but there is something else at work - Marginal Returns.
I don't know.. but i dread the cycle. The moment something goes up, it's going to come down.
There are so many things that i've realised, yet those are already discovered.
Perhaps life is plain without expectations. No expectations, no disappointment.. yet no expectations, there'll be no motivation.. but i rather wait for something to happen.. Just don't give me those dramatic scenario lor.. haha.. my heart can't take it.
Entries being so heavily coded that i've forgotten what i've been complaining about.. haha.. it's really quite difficult to read.. lol.
Basically.. what i'm trying to say is.. things have been more or less settled that i'm starting to get bored. But i don't want to be disappointed by having expecting something to happen. Actually.. i don't even know what i want now..

Kelian De Wo
10 Near Perfect Reasons of Why I Don't Like Morning Classes:
1) I don't like to wake up early.. (which means...)
2) I don't like to sleep early
3) I don't like to get stuck in the traffic during the morning peak
4) I don't like to try to get unto the super-packed bus during the morning peak
5) I don't like to travel on a public transport where it keeps stopping to carry more people during the peak hour
6) I don't like to pay for the peak hour charges (cab or ERP.. same)
7) I don't like it when it rains in the morning (usually will.. and it's so difficult to get off the bed)
8) I don't like it when i reach school on time, but discovered that all seats are taken (afternoon lessons i usually reach school earlier.. usually)
9) I don't like it when the foodcourt is packed with students during lunch time
10) I don't like it when i've got nothing to do in the afternoon
Sounds logical? LOL... was trying to convince myself that i've made a right choice in the 3:1 ratio in favour of afternoon lessons.
I'm complaining because i attended my 1st morning lecture this semester.. and i took the effort to wake up early, set off early.. just because i knew too well what the morning peak will be. I had 30 mins of cushion.. but thens.. THEN.. PIE was jammed. I saw on the electronic sign that there was an accident.. and the jam was all the way before eng neo exit till clementi exit.. which is.. essentially the whole PIE route which the toopid bus was supposed to take.. ARGH!
Was on the bus for so darn long that the iPod battery went flat.. i can't imagine why i'm wasting so much time on the road.. where it could be simpler. Why why why why why? Why an accident can waste so much time? I don't know.. we can't blame anyone i guess.. who wants to get involved? Unless... 1) the driver was driving recklessly (speeding, anyhow cut lane without signalling.. etc.) 2) DUI (in the morning i guess not.. lol) 3) Other drivers slow down to see show! (wah... i really can't stand this 1 lor.. although i'm equally curious la.. but thens hor.. i'm a passenger! so i can see)
Argh! But luckily i reached school ON time. And then.. got myself on the 3rd row.. Lol.. front section again.. - - and again.. i was alone! Hahaa.. so kelian leh.. the other two warlords were not in school.. sigh.. then i sian.. haha.. break time was a drag.. lol.. luckily got lao pok pok they all.. haha.. and i'm quite suprised.. so many people i know.. but didn't them well enough to chat for the whole break. So i chup here a bit and there a bit lor.. lol.. luckily its only for this week.. i hope?
FI makes more sense this time round.. i wondered what the previous lecturer was teaching.. whaha.. luckily he isn't teaching FI this year.. heng ah.. And same as LBO.. i got 1 year "experience" de wor.. whaha.. but still not enough.. coz i think CF is more important as a prerequisite.
And while attending lesson alone.. i came up with a newer version of my wishlish.. whaha.. which i might go publish on the next entry. Still thinking whether i should hold a "chill" session in return.. but then i know people won't "let me off".. haha.. i don't want to "dig my own grave".. And yah.. forgot to add.. the bugger beside me hor.. kept shaking the leg! Some of the seats shared the same fouundation.. so any movement by the person beside will translate into kinetic energy to me.. haha... kns lor.. he shook so much that i thought i was on SIM i-gallop or something.. for once, i almost thought i'll get motion sickness in lectures.. haha..
And then i think i very blur today.. thought had a lunch appointment.. but actually was for dinner.. whahaa... i think my STM getting worse.

Not only that.. i sat with a row of weird students.. haha.. those that usually sit in front are very enthu de wor.. scare me. Lecturer just ask 1 question nia.. and 1 student can answer so many times.. or was it 1 time but a very complex and long answer? I just fail to catch it with the werid accents.
I thought i got 1 year experience of LBO foundation to "bo bi" me from any arrow or projectiles the lecturer can fire at me.. but then... i was wrong. He asked me 1 question.. then i stunned. As usual.. the "shocked" face i always show KB of my IR class.. wahaa.. and then everything will be over.
2nd week of school.. and i can feel the stress.. couldn't see much of the people i know in school.. (though i got a 4 day week).. hahaa.. maybe my timetable too rare le.. I seldom eat in school le.. all noon lessons.. Maybe its better... at least i don't chat my time away... haha..
But still.. i would like to see people i know.. if not, do so much for what? So today, the sad and kelian me was alone at LBO.. so smsed ism.. coz i know she and yf got class also. So i went up.. and then.. Saw so many people lor.. haha.. chat until i forgot my LBO break was over.. -_-
Still.. having break alone was very very very sian...
Today went "shopping" at j8... go muji to stock up on containers.. haha.. but then, couldn't find a container for some things.. I don't want the same as the rest of the people wor.. but too bad.. i guess jap don't use this kind of things. Lol.. But i got an idea.. maybe i use a very thick name card holder? Lol.. see how ba..
Reached home.. but couldn't get any short glass from there.. what a wasted trip.. and then.. sh called.. asked me to meet for dinner.. at j8 .. again~ So i finished dinner.. then went out again.. wanted to save money.. so i ate at home. Ate ajisen.. or should i say.. i only drink.. haha.. green tea. Saw sh ate.. ramen, sushi, mini octopus.. wah.. machiam 10 course dinner like that.. haha.. see liao i also gian.. i gian the soft shell crab.. ^^ But is from sakae de.. but too bad la.. no money.. omg.. school feels killed my bank account. (you b*st*rds! - refer to southpark ^^)
Now i blog until i hungry le.. haha.. time to cook instant noodles with eggs. (as advertised by channel 8) Kns.. i eat and eat and eat... and a lot of people say i didn't look as if i've gained weight.. lol.. where all the food go? Still stucked in my stomach? Eh.. weighing machine says i've gained almost 6kgs since my last "downfall" le lor.. 6kgs of da bian? a bit hard to convince me leh.
Oh yah.. something happened today.. very strange.. but i better exclude from my blog.. if not kena charged.. jail don't have instant noodles with eggs.. they only got "black bean" rice... lol. Ya.. jail also no wireless leh...

30 More Days.. and Not Even 1 C
1 more month.. and i'll be 23 le. But then.. 23 doesn't mean anything much le.. Except.. i've still yet got any of the 5Cs.
Haha.. makes me feel so old le.. and not suprisingly, i'm quite late in earning cash.. for i'm still studying.. and not taking up part time, i didn't have any income. Sis was right the other day.. my junior signed up for air force, and actually got paid for serving NS. For me.. i'm still nua-ing away my time. Time = money.. i do agree strongly.. makes me wonder.. when will i save enough to complete my 5cs?
To make things worst.. i buang my 2nd year.. what was i thinking huh? Now still got to extend another in SIM.. so have to waste time lor.. but if i can manage to secure 3 upper this year.. maybe the mistake was worth it.
Studies doesn't seems that easy to me nowadays.. and still got people want to complain 'O' levels to me.. ahha.. degree programme isn't simple at all.. not even a bit. And to my horror.. even MSM seems alien to me.. i don't know.. the theory part is so confusing.. read until i want to explode le... But too bad la.. i'm still short of 5 2nd upper.
Studies aside.. i was really pek chek at band last saturday. Was again the solo horn.. and suay suay they start with mononoke.. plenty of horn solo.. and me didn't bring my bao bei instrument. So i used SWE "house" instrument.. with a very large schmid mouthpiece.. lol.. couldn't pitch that well and still got to perform solo. Whaha.. and they all like never see/hear solo before... all turned around.. made me so nervous. Whahaa.. luckily i was able to clear..Then they played "little mermaid".. arranged by some jap guy.. but hor.. he arrange until i blur.. got lost.. a very bad feeling indeed.
And now.. i shall publish my bday wish list~! Wahahaaa...
I want...:
1) Crumpler Pouch for my hp/iPod etc.. (Grey/Black)
2) Zippo Lighter (Black) SKU: 4841 (or something like that.. plain black..)
3) Maple PPC (for maplers..)
3) LV wallet! (wahahaa... ok.. its just a wishlist..)
4) Office Chair (? it's just a wishlist..)
5) Samsung SGH-D820 (okok.. you all get the idea..)
6) LCD Monitor for my desktop (forget it..)
7) LCD TV for my room...
...seems like.. only the 1st 3 are viable... Haha..
Which makes me wonder.. how come i give out so much for other people's bday arh? Better let me see the presents.. whahahaha~

I Did It AGAIN!
Sigh, i did it again~
Not even a week, and i already chute pattern. Haha.. i should have known.. not to choose morning lesson.. kns.. and early in the morning, the weather is too nice for sleeping le la.. haha.. so in the end.. i skipped the 1st lesson of FI. Assumed that he'll say the same things over again.. so.. i skipped lecture. Sigh.. better get motivated for next FI.. if not..
Was feeling very tired today.. and very pek chek too.. i don't like the idea of having so many things to do in a week.. i prefer to nua at home.. and i can't even find a day.. except today. And today i rested for the whole day.. i don't know why.. maybe weather too good for sleeping le.. so after lunch, i sleep until time for dinner... - - What a waste of time..
I think i know why i'm so restless.. maybe the lack of crubbing? Hahaa... omg... but school starts le.. aiyo aiyo oh aiyo aiyo oh oh~ How can i balance studies and play? Perhaps work too? Hah.. my funds are running dry le... arrr..
Haiz.. i'm feeling soooo guilty for skipping FI.. =_= Can anyone do anything to lessen my guilt? (makes me wanna go study my FI notes now.. haha..)
And don't know why, arthritis is acting up again.. ar... feeling so uncomfortable.. sigh.. how come suddenly have so much to cope? Lol.. stress until all the pimples start poping up le.. omg.
AND.. my saturday is "burned" by band practice.. for the concert in jan.. and i'm feeling so pek chek.. argh~! Expecting a call to punggol tomorrow night.. haha... as usual.. no appointments required. So i'll get ready my toothbrush wherever i go.. itching for mj le.. lol.. must win a lot a lot..
This week aside... i find it weird at how things are developing.. i really don't know leh.. how huh? Aiyo aiyo oh aiyo aiyo oh oh~

My Day?
Wahahahaha.. see this: VvVvVvV! (V is revived)
Yeah! My laptop's keyboard recovered! i didn't do anything to it leh.. Wahahaa... which made me even happier!
And then it was just so simple... to make one happy, just take away what he has.. and then return to him sometime later.. and he'll be happy! (by the way, it can be as simple as getting a botak head and then growing back the hair.. whahaa..) Same as what happend.. i was limping during my sec 4 days becoz of arthritis... but got better as i go along.. so right now.. even i can't do sports without inflicting pain on my joints, i'm still glad.. imagine not being able to walk properly? Lol. .thankful that i still can run.. (in case need to run away from disaster or what.. hahah..)
Whoa.. and today marks the 2nd day of my lessons.. LBO (which is a repeat module).. and i was so bored there.. coz there isn't anyone i know.. sigh.. and also, i knew what the lecturer was going to teach, and most of the answer to his question.. = = But still attended it nevertheless... thanks to friends who refused to leave me alone to nua at home. I guess i need a lot of push to really make this year work.
Perhaps a bit far.. but i hoped to get at least 4 uppers for this year.. i know my essay writing isn't that good.. coz sometimes friends complained that they don't know what i'm blogging.. hah... but then again, those are repeat modules leh.. haha.. 2 years of experience.. and still cannot score?
Thankful that i didn't pass.. or else i'll graduate with a 3rd... and.. what's the point? Things happened and they happened. The only way to go is forward.. lol.. took me sooooooo long to understand..maybe i'm older.. that's why wiser? (i'm trying to imply that my bday is coming leh..need-list will be out soon... lol.)
Luckily JJ was attending LBO with me today.. or else i'll be like a sad loner.. which i used to mock of.. haha... now my bad karma leh.. haha.. maybe i go crash lessons? Anyway, LBO will soon see people leaving.. just like IR. The reason being, they always start will very hard to digest terms.. and scare the hell out of we poor students.. Degree course isn't 'o' levels.. a lot more knowledge is needed.. Thankfully again, i got 1 year headstart .. whahaha.. how can i not score? Hope to keep it up.. got people to study with me le.. haha.. different topics can ask different people.. and hope everyone do well.
After LBO was at the SSC's bazaar.. and wondering how the got the same vendors.. lol.. they reaped what the previous bazaar committee has sowed. Sad was, how shabby it was presented.. impressed was they got all the vendors coming in with such short notice. Hah.. but, who the * care? LOL.. SRC kena bullied.. but then again, chance was presented.. yet the stituation doesn't allow. Haha.. so next time let SSC organise bazaar loh. Welfare can close and koon le.
But i don't think the school is being fair la.. but as always, fighting with authority means lose.. so don't ever try.. at least not at the moment? Haha.. E-99 isn't the way to get things going lor.
So regardless of "na yi gen chong's" bazaar, i still tour to do my own shopping.. haha.. and i finally bought a DVD R+ (and found out a bit more from the vendor the difference between +, -, +/-.. and also asked whether got * or / or not.. whaha.. and i went to get my chiong ink from another vendor.. said i looked familiar.. and i said, "of coz.. i was the organising comm the previous year." LOL.. so chatted with them.. which they told me that business was slower than the "Enchanted Gardens" .. LOL.. Of coz lah! SRC do bazzar is confirm pass 1 leh.. Last year was the best so far. Everything was right.. EXCEPT the tmd stage and the tmd shitty things those tmd clubs and outside company want tmd do.. kns. Made me tah 1 sai form our boss's boss. NB lah.. Hah. Ok.. venting complete ^^
So i told the vendor that i treat my laptop drink milktea, and i asked and see whether they got any lobangs for repairs.. (since they're in this industry).. and they recommand a pc clinic for me.. haha.. what's best is that they recommand a better one.. a pc hospital for me if the clinic fails.. lol~ So grateful to them.. and now it seems.. we showed our sincerity the other time they were here.. and then now i got help ^^.. of coz i bought half a dozen of ink cart for a discount.. heh... so happy today.
Waited until i starved to bones for the bazaar meeting to be over.. (i tried not to get involved).. haha.. my presence was only for moral support.. unless they decided that i'm there to demoralize them.. haha.. but i kept my words to bare minimum.. lol.. For now, i need to learn another lesson.. that is, to let go. Having power to control is very addicitive.. lol... and being 1 year of exco, it's quite difficult to get rid of the habbit.. lol.. so let go i did. I spent most of my time chatting.. whaha..
Went clementi with the welfare family to eat and eat and eat. I'm gaining weight yet again.. the next thing is to train le.. haha.. so long as i can discipline myself. Nice was the food there... though a bit full.. haha... after dinner, went arcade to play photohunt and time crisis 2.. whaha.. the newer crisis too expensive le.. lol..so played the old 1 for 1/3 of the price and got so much credit that we played until the hand ache... haha.. i don't play arcade much de.. by the way. Was like a few years since i last stepped into one.. maybe that was during my army days while i chiong initial D 1? Haha.. i still have my honda integra card with me wor.. lol.. zhng until nice nice de..
So a lot more games evolved using decks of cards as part of the games... imagine playing Magic the gathering on a computer screen.. that's how it's like. A game caught me was the 3 kingdoms.. i've always been interested.. and whoa.. is a bit like 3 guo online.. but now is single player with cards as troops.. whoa.. haha.. i'd like to try is someday.. (maybe next year when i start to earn money)
That day was having a "village" discussion.. and we talked about the prices of houses after seeing the mark lee's advertisment.. so i asked.. how much does a condo cost? My sis replied, "oh.. about 500k"... O_o.. i asked, "in mesos?".. haha... 500k leh.. and her friend lives in 1..!! How to get 500k lor.. even if i earn 2k a month, saved 1.5k.. i'll only get 18k a year... 500k.. erm.. that'll take .. erm.. forever? Whahaha.. somemore i still got to get a car leh.. which will take me almost 30 years to complete.. assuming i can save that much. I doubt it.. haha.. given my addiction to alcohol.. i guess i can't.. lol. So if i start work from next year.. at the age of 23.. i'll only be able to realise my proposed dream at 53. Hahahaha~ that is, i assume to remain single.. lol.. 500k leh.. imagine how many bottles of martell 1 can open?
Enough of day dreaming.. lol.. so today was sharp contrast to yesterday.. lol.. i'm soooo happy lor.. hahaa... hopefully.. no shit happens tomorrow? I don't want another ride.. lol.
Tomorrow is wednesday.. still thinking whether to go mambo or not.. aiyo aiyo oh aiyo aiyo oh oh~

Not My Day....
Sad was nothing could be done to this presario.. (by the way, warranty doesn't cover spills of any sort).. and being the newer models, the keyboard wasn't available anywhere except the service centre). . sigh, a wasted trip to sim lim.
But the boss was rather kind.. taught me how to try to clean up the spills.. whaha... and said to me, "if you intend to change the keyboard, you can try washing it.." .. whaha.. ok.. maybe i'll try when i've confirmed with the service centre that they have the spares.. haha.. then maybe i'll dismantle my keyboard.. diy style again.. whaha.. which might be disaster again.
Thinking, thinking.. hopefully it'll work. Checked the price le.. which is $140 for everything.. (at sim lim) which is a slight above average quote.. haha.. but the keyboard spares won't be coming in till later in the year.. sigh.. i'll see how much service centre will quote me.. if > $140.. i'll DIY. Or rather.. DIM.. lol.
Sian today coz my locker was occupied le.. 2010. Was so pissed coz i thought some illegal user had used it.. pissed was that i again had to go somewhere and again had to put my stack of notes there.. haha.. and i wanted to break it open.. the truth was, it was re-issued after the "great clearence" of SRC users. I guess, the locker was perhaps the last thing to be cleared from me..
So, called dy xx (again).. haha.. dunno why.. the always the suay 1 to kena 1st.. lol.. but got a replacement locker le.. Ed also called me and asked why his locker was broken.. wah~ Scary.. and this is only the 1st day... 5 more days to go.
1st day of school was fun.. seeing more people i know.. haha.. but MSM was great too.. not in the lecture itself. I'm just happy that i can focus so well.. hah.. LBO tomorrow.. which is.. boring.. whaha.. a repeat subject for me.. but then again, it's another opportunity.
Irritated at certain things that happened at home.. argh~! So buay zhi dong 1.. sigh.. i don't want to care le la..

OMG, I Killed My Keyboard!
Sigh...
Got a nasty spill on my laptop, and then, my keyboard dieded within an hour. Sadly, i'm not equipped on fixing laptops.. haha.. so right now, one of the letter is dead. (try guess which letter it is.. lol)
A rare letter to be used, till i realised it's importance.. haha.. althought i'm a bit better off than one of my friend.. he got his spacebar ko-ed. LOL.. but i'm quite sad la.. coz got to spent some money again.. although i can replace my laptop keyboard functions by getting 1 mini usb keyboard.. but.. haha.. it's so funny to bring a keyboard as an add on wor.. haha..
Maybe i'll get it fixed tomorrow after lessons.. haiz.
I'm not surprised if i' got ripped off at sim lim.. hah.. all becoz i'm not trained.. maybe i'll go online and buy cheap 2nd hand laptops to take them apart? LOL.. i'm already poor le.. haiz.
Sad was went tea went upon the laptop.. and i knew.. this time confirm gone le..
Haiz... suan le la.. and i got to learn not to drink near my laptop next time.. haha.
(this entry was done without the use of the letter that was killed =) )

Seh le~!
As with all crubbing sessions, i'll update..
For once, this is the most seh session i'll gotten myself into.. i lost count of how many drinks/shot/jug i've cleared.. and i don't think i've kept track of how much i've spent... perhaps in the 80s..
Nevertheless, i refused to puke.. for i think it's very wasteful.. food alcohol and all. Till now, i'm still controlling my "will" for puking.. haha.. very very seh.. and i think i'll have a very jia lat hangover tomorrow.. (try not to sms me before 4pm..)..
But still, i need to clear some things.. - the fact that i didn't want to publish my results is that i didn't want anyone to intervene.. of coz i know friends are concerned.. and i'm really grateful.. but, i don't think i want to be asked why.. coz certain things happened and my personality couldn't cope during that period... and hence things are the way they are. So please.. feel no pity, feel nothing.. i'm ok the way i am.. and perhaps, this is the best learning experience i've ever been through.
But of coz, i blame no one.. for i wasn't equipped well enough at that point..
1 year is not small feat.. and i know time is precious - time = money.. and money is "almost" everything.. but i really couldn't cope during then.. so spare me from those questioning please?
For 1 thing for sure, i'll extend my studies to the 4th year.. hopefully part time. (which means, i won't graduate for sure in 2007).. but i still have my best wishes to my friends of the same batch.
*too seh to continue* (hopefully i still remember what to blog tomorrow)..

Nevertheless, i refused to puke.. for i think it's very wasteful.. food alcohol and all. Till now, i'm still controlling my "will" for puking.. haha.. very very seh.. and i think i'll have a very jia lat hangover tomorrow.. (try not to sms me before 4pm..)..
But still, i need to clear some things.. - the fact that i didn't want to publish my results is that i didn't want anyone to intervene.. of coz i know friends are concerned.. and i'm really grateful.. but, i don't think i want to be asked why.. coz certain things happened and my personality couldn't cope during that period... and hence things are the way they are. So please.. feel no pity, feel nothing.. i'm ok the way i am.. and perhaps, this is the best learning experience i've ever been through.
But of coz, i blame no one.. for i wasn't equipped well enough at that point..
1 year is not small feat.. and i know time is precious - time = money.. and money is "almost" everything.. but i really couldn't cope during then.. so spare me from those questioning please?
For 1 thing for sure, i'll extend my studies to the 4th year.. hopefully part time. (which means, i won't graduate for sure in 2007).. but i still have my best wishes to my friends of the same batch.
*too seh to continue* (hopefully i still remember what to blog tomorrow)..

My Weekend Essay
Been almost a week without entry.. coz the only thing i did was to rot at home. While they worked, i play.. and when they want to play, i already pok.
More pok was after i came back from OCBC.. - - Went to do a cheque for my school fees, and also the bank draft.. altogether $20 for service rendered. No wonder financial intermediaries are still around. So sian to see a futher dip in my funds.. sadly.. still another 2k coming up in next feb.. argh.
Surprisingly, i haven't been to OCBC for quite some time.. and woah.. they finally changed their uniform and service.. finally. And no longer i see any weird auntie with weird attitude at the front line.. hahaa.. But this time round, it was totally experience. Totally awed me.
Good.. finally things are done, except to mail the 235 pounds to UK by registered.. so mafan~ (and expensive too)
Went school to pay my school fees, and i got a shock at the customer service.. since when did they renovate the place? Wahahaa.. so class lor.. and got LCD screen too! But looks a bit like hospital la.. lol.
Supposed to me the 2 ex pillars of welfare for a simple dinner at clementi hawker.. but then don't know why i ended up in Bugis with them.. and simple dinner turned to Chong Qing Steamboat.. = = Whahaaa.. and it looks so much like the days when we were the excos of welfare. Hahaa.. great memories.
And it rained halfway, but it was shiok.. having steamboat on a rainny day.. but i think i drank too much water le.. couldn't eat a lot.. so lang fei lor.
After dinner, supposed to go walk around to digest.. so we ended up at the arcarde.. and spent hours watching people play to win sweets and a soft toy for $50 =_= Wahaha.. $50.. can buy 1 sack of sweets le lor.
11pm, and still not willing to go home.. haha.. and then it was movies on a weekend.. we watched the devil wears prada.. nice show.. but i want to watch open season too.. haha..
1.30am.. again, not willing to go home.. so? What else? (next time must remember to bring tooth brush when meeting the both of them)... what else? Punggol lor.. (don't say siao hor.. thanks) Lol.. midnight cab wasn't cheap... $18 in total, $6 each.. which is damn cheap.. ( coz i know i can win back at the table. .whahaaa.. kidding)
And so we played.. and yay~ finally luck changed for the better le.. and i won a bit ^^
Got home this morning, was about 10am, was supposed to go support 1 of my freshie for the superstar thing at toa payoh.. but in the end too tired.. coz today will be a long day. Setting off to Boonlay in half and hours time for band practice (finally) and heard they going to do a combine with the strings? OMG.. i lost touch le lor.. and my instrument turned rusty le.
And from boonlay, got to rush home to change after band pract.. and go down to double to tah before the school starts.. but now i don't have the energy to block drinks lor.. super tired.. slept less than 3 hours in the 2 days.. and then still got to ti toh until so late.. still must whack drink also.. O_o.. think i'll chwee tonight.
But..... school's reopening in 2 days' time... so.. tah tah tah~ For Pluto!

Long Weekend, Long Entry (also)
Weekend was quite a busy one.. saturday met the 2 ex excos of welfare to shop for ism's present.. but then, the bag that she wanted was the last piece.. so in the end, plan was changed.. and frankly, i really have no idea.. haha.. luckily ml was there.. so it was 2 bags instead of 1.
After shopping, went to welfare bbq.. haha.. and we were late.. and there wasn't much seniors to be seen.. haha.. does it signal something? But it was still fun there.. haha.. maybe year 3 = expire le.. haha.. but then, i ate and ate.. the food was sooo nice~ Don't know what secret recipie they used.. lol.
After that, we went to the pasa malam at hougang centre.. the first stall we saw was the smelly tofu.. wahhhhh~ so excited.. haha.. and so the 3 of us decided to try. But then... when uncle put the tofu in to fry.. the other 2 ran away... =_= But it smells like.. the nearby rubbish bin. Hahaha... but i checked with ah li.. she went taiwan and tried it... but she says it smells like da bian.. hahaa.. maybe i should tour there someday ^^
Eat and eat and eat again.. haha.... otah, ice cream.. whoa.. nice ^^
Changed camp from Hougang to punggol.. for mahjong.. and then, i kept losing! (again) Haha.. seems like my luck is getting from bad to worse. And then also lost quite a bit on soccer too.. super sian lor.. like this holiday i only got expenditure.. =_=
So it ended and i lost.. sad was me.. and hurt was my wallet. Hahaha.. slept at 2 plus and woke up early for brunch... and continue the battle ~ Haha.. and i think, luck is still the MOST important thing.. and i was on a winning streak... and all quite ho seh 1 also.. in the end, covered the previous day losses.. but couldn't cover for the soccer bet.. T_T
Went ism's bday celebration.. just across the road.. lol.. so we pratically walked there. So bday was.. the usual stuffs.. haha.. maybe next time i can "organise" for people.. then maybe "charge" in terms of bday presents? Haha.. kidding. Saw a few SIM friends there.. and we hardly even see each other in school.. so it was fun.. and we played.. "zhong ji mi mah" again.. haha.. as usual. Like got template de..
Left early coz monday is a work day for most of them... lol.. but not me. kns.. i feel so useless lor.. but 1 more year is all i have to endure. (or maybe 2?) haha.. said i wanted to make it work.. and i sure i will.. as BT proves it.. miracles do happen.. hahaa..
Decided to go cabbing with jj they all.. and then got this toopid cab driver.. act blur de... say don't know road.. next time i make sure i take a map of singapore with me!
But this was another long weekend.. all the way from friday.. tah until i got hangover the following day.. and i kept having the runs... as with most over dosed crubbing sessions.. haha.. but hopefully this coming wednesday.. will be the last "full time" crubbing session.. really got to work le la..

Long Friday, Long Entry
It's a super loooong friday.. actually i have no wish to go.. but in the end, i still went. From Phuture to Double.. And finally it was decided on double. Sadly as always, organiser cannot jio enough people to go... and.. this time round, it was worse. From 3 to 2.. =_=
So the 2 of us went.. luckily, i saw my primary school mates ^^. Happy like anything.. coz too long never see them le.. haha.. so fun. Though me and the organise drank our own, and dance on our own, it was still great to see part of the JJSG (if the name is still used... lol)
Had a lot more than the previous session... but still, i didn't perform the lion show.. .hahaa... but, for a while, i thought i was at the singapore river~ Hah.. got 1 cmi de.. perform the merlion show in front of so many people lor.. whaha.. super er xin.. and somemore.. guy leh. Don't know what he ate.. like cannot puke finish de.. ahaha.. yucks!
And then halfway.. got 1 "uncle" came to talk to me.. whahaa.. told me about his "hay days".. lol~ (as all ah zek taxi drivers like to tell me..). ,"you all are still young.. still can do a lot of things.." = =.. i mean, ah pek also got young before mah.. what's there to be envious of de? Hahaha.. but they're more pro than the village chief.. as least they got go spark and fire de.. whahahaa.. retro leh. So they wished me all the best for my studies.. and i thanked them.. I really need all the best i could get for the coming sem.
Still, i have NO WISH to disclose my results.. ask me personally, and i'll tell. Coz people are so funny.. i don't know.. seems to have norm that they have to follow. Say something funny and they might go beserk.
Meanwhile.. time to cut down on a lot of things... such as crubbing, mapling and nuaing. Perhaps, i have the intention to settle down soon.. or maybe not. I'm still worried... for it's always studies first. "Once bitten, twice shy..".. i've known of how not to cope with emotional stress.. and i will never let it bother me anymore.
Bliss was never far away.. lest the implications involved. Right now, i really won't know how..
Recently, watched a lot of dramas.. like "full house" and "train man" on SCV, "i'm samsoon" on channel U.. plus a few HK dramas.. and sigh.. it's so painful to get involve again. I don't deny i'm happy the way i am now.. but then again... how long will it last? It's just another vicious cycle.. and right now.. i think.. i might be in serious trouble... sigh.. i need help.. perhaps try to cut down on dramas le.
Tried to be sad... but i discovered, i can't summon that emotion anymore... i've learnt to be so indifferent that even shit results couldn't crumble me... well,.. at least not now. Come next sem.. hopefully, i've learnt to discipline myself much.. maybe till the point of "no life".. but i guess, it shouldn't be a problem.. there will always be opportunity cost involved.. so, try not to ask me to go crubbing when school reopens.. i want to score le.
By the way... i'll be sleeping till late noon (its 5.35am).. guess i won't be waking up in time to rally for girl dy's bowling com.. and so in advance, "all the best!"

The Result
Finally.. results are out. Blog experienced a higher visit count.. but, i won't be publishing my results here.. wahaha~
Ok.. now, time to get on again.
Today went comex, saw syl and zx there working.. so hardworking.. lol. Expo was very crowded.. and far too. Felt as though i was going for my exams again.. scary.
It rained the whole day.. i mean, i like rainy days.. but only when i don't need to go out.. but today had appointment with wm le.. so bo bian la.. coz he gian buy laptop for very long liao.. haha.. in the end, bought a duo core for 1.5k.. whoa.. and we waited sooo long for them to fix the additional 512 ram.
After everything was done, it was already 9 plus.. and we didn't have our dinner.. so took a quick bite at bedok corner.. had stingray and chicken wings.. then took 13 from there back to thomson.. wah.. took so long to reach.. and it was almost 12 when we ate our actual dinner. Ba chor mee.. haha.. my favorite leh.. but rushed home instead of nua-ing.. coz results are out.
Ok.. so now the results are known.. and strangely enough.. some still said it won't happen. And this proven 1 point.. "you won't know it, unless it happens to you.." right?
And actually, i got more lost after knowing my results.. and... i think this will be another sleepless night..
