The Boston Celtics have won their 17th NBA Championship with a 131-92 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Ray Allen shot 7-9 from beyond the 3-pt line and scored 26pts despite being scratched in the eye early in the game by Lamar Odom while driving to the hoop. Allen had his son, who was ill, to worry before the game but managed to shake it off to concentrate on the game, sharing the game high points with another of the Big 3, Kevin Garnett. The defensive player of the year, who also scored 26 points, recorded another double-double, pulling down 14 boards and blocked 1 shot. The Big Ticket scored a miraculous shot after being fouled by Odom with 47.3seconds left in the second quarter, putting the free throw in for a 3-pt play.

The Celts went on the crush the Lakers with a 23pt lead during the half and a 39pt victory at the end of the game. Lakers struggled with the ball, turning it 11 times during the first half, recording 19 turnovers for the game, which they fell as many as 43pts.

Kobe Bryant started out the game well shooting in threes for his team. However, he wasn't able to keep his momentum running and shot 7 of 22 field goals overall in Game 6. The biggest lead for the Lakers was only 4pts.

"June 17th + 17th Championship = #34 Paul Pierce", the perfect equation for the Boston Captain, Paul Pierce, who got the Finals Most Valuable Player award. Coming out from the locker room after a knee injury in Game 1 shooting back to back 3-pt shots, PP never failed to motivate his team throughout the Finals series. His hard drives to the bucket and his excellent defense on regular season MVP, Kobe Bryant has helped him secure a Championship Ring that he has waited for well over a decade, and a Finals MVP.

The Big 3 has been the stars of their own team, Celtics, Sonics and Timberwolves respectively, but haven't got any Rings, until now. Pierce has been in the green jersey all career long, despite being a Celtic hater when he was young.

All the big talk about the Big 3, have we now forgotten those beyond them? The likes of James Posey, Leon Powe, veterans PJ Brown and Sam Cassell, Eddie House and star point guard Rajon Rondo, they have contributed well.

We'll start with Posey. Terrific hustle defensively, excellent 3-pt range shooting, that's what 1-time NBA Champion has done for this Green Team.

Powe. 2 words, "GAME TWO".

PJ Brown. Another great defender of Boston. The 38-yr-old veteran has contributed well with his minutes offensively and defensively.

Sam Cassell. Also another 38-yr-old and former NBA Champion, he has proven all these years that he can shoot as he will and didn't fail to continue to show his offense here.

Eddie House. Quick release shots from anywhere ranging from mid to perimeter helped Boston offensively off the bench.

Rajon Rondo. Good looks, quick hands, that's the starting point guard of the Boston Celtics. Ankle injury from LA? What Ankle injury, played terrific in Game 6. He has also shown he can rebound the ball as well as any centers or forwards can. Can't shoot as well? No problem for the team because he feeds his teammates when they need the ball. Well done to the young point guard.

Now, that the wait is over, the rings have gone to those who have worked hard for it. Boston Celtics are indeed the world champions of basketball, and they deserve it. KUDOS TO THE GREEN TEAM! LIVE ON THE TRADITION!

i kind of like this post, did it all by myself with stats courtesy of NBA.com. and the Paul Pierce picture i editted. added the words 'where MVP happens'. plain, simple, but LOOKS GOOD!

2008-06-14T14:10:00.002+08:00

will the determination of the Boston Celtics lead them to a 17th NBA Championship?

after a terrific comeback(the largest in over 3 decades) in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, the Celts defeated the LA Lakers at the Staples Center to bring the series up 3-1. it's the first time the Big 3 of the Celtics - Ray Allen, Paul Pierce & Kevin Garnett, are in the NBA Finals. all 3 have had tremendous seasons throughout their career in the NBA and are looking forward to clinch the Championship on Game 5, which will be played again at Los Angeles on Father's Day. excellent performances by Boston throughout the series will need to be maintained in order for them to win the Finals. the team has emphasised on defense, which they have done well throughout the season being the best defensive team in the NBA, to overcome the best offensive squad in the NBA, their rivals, the LA Lakers.

the question comes back again. will Boston end the series with the Championship, or will the Lakers pull through a feat no team has ever achieved, coming back after trailing 3-1 for the win? we'll have to watch on as the rivalry continues between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics.

I'VE GOT MY DRIVING LICENSE! finally. those that have known me well enough would also know how long i've waited for this day! i drove just now with my dad to pick my mum up at Jurong East. then went to Jurong West to have dinner. then drove back. didn't really like the Lancer's steering, IT'S HEAVY(like the Honda Civic)! i still prefer the Honda City's light steering. hopefully i can drive to training tomorrow. =]

I AM A GRASSROOT LEADER UNDER CCK CSC! =] doing my part for the society and for my CE points.

driving simulator was really boring. i had the lesson 2 days ago. if it was longer, it lasted only 10minutes, it would have been better. thankfully it's over! and i'm one step closer to TP! 3rd June is coming real soon. i'm hoping for a one-time pass. I WANT TO DRIVE!

was in the train from Marina Bay back to Yew Tee earlier. it was really really stuffy/ hot. i tried my best to sleep from the beginning and finally managed to 2 stations later at City Hall. when i woke up, i was at Ang Mo Kio. and i was perspiring as if i was under the sun. it wasn't just me, the people around me were complaining too. when the train was at Yio Chu Kang, 2 SMRT staff came on board and checked some electrical stuff at where i was sitting. then they told the driver through walkie-talkie to turn on something. i finally felt cool air. i really don't understand, we as commuters are already paying so much, and yet we're given such bad service? and this is just the MRT, the buses are worst. i hope whoever's in-charge can do a better job instead of this crap the commuters are getting. bad air-conditioning, pests and long waiting time, just to name a few of the nonsense. enough of explanations and apologies, WE WANT ACTIONS AND RESULTS. if there should be a person from the media, LTA, SMRT, SBS Transit or the Government reading this portion, PLEASE DO SOMETHING! thank you.

off to dragonboat now. 3 races this month. Master Series, POL-ITE, PA Paddle Championship. it's going to be a heck of an April.

Manchester United cruising with a 2-0 advantage from Rome. next Champions League match will be back in Manchester. i'm confident that they will move to the finals, but not all confident they will finish as champions. one thing i'm sure though will be that they WILL win the Barclay's Premier League title. glory glory Man Utd? i definitely hope so.

Boston Celtics looking good in the East, in fact, in the NBA. on the other side though, it's a fight for a position in the Playoffs between Golden State, Dallas and Denver. really tight down there in the West. but i'm hoping for the Mavericks to stay OUT of the Playoffs. i would rather see the Warriors and Nuggets. just my two-cents.

still in sports. recently, 2 great sportsmen have retired from the sports scene. they are, Ric Flair from the WWE and Chris Webber from the NBA(Golden State Warriors). i'll only be talking about the one that's most influential one to me.

Ric Flair/ Nature Boy/ Naitch/ THE MAN
he has entertained the sports industry for the past 4 decades. the 16-time World Heavyweight Champion was retired on 30th March 2008 at Wrestlemania by his chosen opponent, Shawn Michaels. Ric Flair's a legend, a Hall of Famer. i had the honour to see him wrestle here in Singapore twice. everytime he came out, i felt really great hearing his entrance song play. he's one heck of a wrestler. a huge WOOOOOOO to him.

yes, i'm sure all these great talk about Flair would end in awhile when people start to look forward to other matches in the WWE. but his works in the industry will never be forgotten for a long long time. THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES RIC!

WOOOOO.

2008-03-24T11:43:00.005+08:00

yes shen lina. they didn't tell me they were going for the concert. so i was 'ps-ed'. it's alright. so no worries. like i said, i'm used to it already. =]

uncle francis did ask me to tag along with him though. but it was a little last minute, so i couldn't make it. thanks anyway. =]

here's a cool video below. my utmost respect to the woman.

2008-02-29T13:07:00.001+08:00

do you have 8:35min of your life to spare?
if so, watch the video below.

2008-02-26T08:26:00.002+08:00

what a coincidence. but it's a little too much.

yesterday, before i woke up, i was in a dream. it was a dream about someone i use to like/love. i don't want to talk about the dream in full detail, simply said, i saved her life in it. anyway, when i woke up, i kept thinking about her and why did she appear in my dream?

when i went to check my mobile for the time, i saw a message sent by her. i just felt so weird. it's like, 2-in-a-row. when i was online, she came and talk to me. 3 now. throughout the noon, there wasn't anymore of this. but wait, there's more.

when i was watching the HK drama on Channel 55 at 9pm, a part of the show actually talked about these 3 stars i use to look at during the period of time when i had feelings for her. the 3 stars are actually the ones you see in the sky which are almost in a straight line vertically. apparently, it's part of Sagittarius(constellation).

the last thing that happened was the advertisement on Disney On Ice. it's something that happened around 3years ago, March 17. go check my archives.

is it coincidence? are those signs? it makes me wonder.

2008-02-22T11:12:00.002+08:00

haha, cool. she's attached again. that's after a month and around 20 days after we broke up. i remember how reluctant she was to even put my name and feature me as a friend on Friendster. but now? just look at her Friendster, everything is up there. no, i'm not jealous. i'm just thinking too much. anyway, why should i bother? all the best in your relationship! and yes, you don't need the name in your personal message and the blog password anymore. all the best!

2008-02-20T00:59:00.001+08:00

enjoy!

2008-02-16T19:36:00.003+08:00

alright. i do not know if it's just all the computers in my home or everyone, but the internet has some problems the past couple of days. there's this pop-up on Firefox that says something about the url of certain websites i visit. a few of them are Friendster user profiles, my blog and Gmail. can someone please tag me and tell me if you're experiencing the same stuff? that is, if there are ANY readers out there. thanks!

oh, one last thing. throughout the month of February, at least 4 people have said i'm skinny. this ain't a complement when you are looking to grow big.

some random shit: Yew Tee Park's basketball court has shorter than usual baskets, and i hate it because it has double rims. i only realised it was shorter because some ITE guy i played with went to jump and touch it. i thought he had such great vertical jump ability because he's like shorter than i am. but it all changed when i grabbed the ring myself. so it's just the shorter baskets. damn. i remember 2 years ago, i took more than 10 attempts to get my fingertips on the ring. 10 attempts to just barely touch it and now, just a vertical jump and i can get my fingers over it! yes, i'm happy and i'm proud of it. because this shows that i achieved something from my jump trainings!

told you it was random!

note to self: upload pictures soon!

alright people. 1st Febuary 2008 marked the last day of my first year of polytechnic education. it was also Rone's birthday. happy 18th kid. =D

Felicia, Mark, Parry, KangHao, Faisal, Rone and I went to AMK to play pool after class. frankly speaking, not really right after class. here's what happened.
- I went to cut my hair, Parry, Faisal and Rone accompanied me.
- went to meet mark and the rest at Woodlands Interchange
- went up to Causeway Point wanting to watch a movie
- decided to go over to AMK to play pool
- ate at AMK Hub
- went over to K-Pool
well, we started playing like 9+ if i'm not wrong? i think so. left the place 1hr 30min later. reached home around 11+.

i don't know what else to blog about. i'll just post up some pictures of W25E.

one of the first group photos (Black Tuesday!)

main attraction i would say?

the Andre Ahchak came to our class, and the almost full class photo.

i had nothing better to do and decided to write the names of the class, backwards.

last group photos.

i was falling, so my legs were a little wide. just a little.

the birthday boy(pimp), with the ladies.

DOTA gang i would say?

the morning we went to the Woodlands Point area to have breakfast. one of the most beautiful picture taken too.

i'll have more pictures tomorrow or something. i'll post the AMK photos.

2008-01-28T16:57:00.000+08:00

this is a special blog post for Mr. Wong Jian An.

as i was looking through your blog, i actually bumped into one of your post that kind of, well, make me feel weird.

i actually took the time to edit a screen-shot taken of that particular post.

there, here it is. read the little words and the bottom end of the arrow, then link it to the picture. and erm, i added the orange words and that arrow. enjoy!

sorry, i'm alone in class and have NOTHING better to do. oh, guess what? it's 1700hrs! i've got to go! after this song playing, The Prayer, by Charlotte Church and the magnificent, Josh Groban. see you guys around!

2008-01-18T09:18:00.001+08:00

first day of school after the 3 weeks break. it's the 13th out of 16 weeks of semester 2 of year 1. so it means my first year of Polytechnic education is coming to an end. well, it's rather cool in a way, but i'm going to miss the slacking days. back to today, class was boring. also, it was rather full! that's all i'm going to say.

went for my 2nd driving practical. not as fun as my first one. i also stalled the car around 5 times. FYI: i stalled only once during the first lesson. but thank God the instructor told me i did well on my steering. i have to improve on my footwork. i MAY be going out of BBDC for my next lesson. wish me well!

i feel like doing something special to my blog. want to change the way i blog. maybe soon. i'm off for now.

2008-01-05T22:24:00.000+08:00

hello hello! back to blogging.

A LATE HAPPY 2008 TO ALL! =D

went for my first driving practical lesson yesterday. I'VE OFFICIALLY DRIVEN A CAR ON 04/01/2008! =] initially, i thought the Honda City was going to suck. but, it turned out fine. you see, the Civic has a longer chassis, thus the bonnet and the trunk would be further, which isn't really an advantage when learning driving. your view in front is actually slightly obstructed by the bonnet as compared to the City. also, something i've learnt from the instructor, a REALLY cool guy, is that the steering wheel for the City can be turned two-and-a-half rounds as compared to the Civic's 2. so, turning is much better. all in all, DRIVING WAS FUN! =D

training officially started today, first of the year 2008. =] let's not allow what happened earlier today to happen ever, EVER, again. work together for a better 2008!

New Year's Resolution
--> GET DRIVING LICENSE
--> DRIVE
--> WIN DB MEDALS
--> 20 PULL-UPS
--> OWN A TRIVIUM/BURNWATER
--> JUMP HIGHER
--> GROW ANOTHER 1-2CM
--> MAYBE 4 (to the above =x)
--> GROW STRONGER WITH THE BOSS UP THERE

2008-01-01T18:07:00.000+08:00

a past that i will always remember.

thank you girl, for everything you've done for me. i appreciate every bit of love you've given me. like i've mentioned, it's been great having you as my girlfriend. we thought we were meant for each other, but well, i guess we were wrong. maybe i'm right when i say that we should have known each other better before getting together. yes, we did enjoy our lovely time when we were together, but it's just not enough for us to last. i'm sorry for ending this relationship. i hope you can understand that it's for the benefit of the both of us. i never had a better girlfriend than you. loving you wasn't a mistake. it was a great experience. once again, thanks for EVERYTHING. let's just remain as great wonderful friends. =D

2007-12-27T22:32:00.000+08:00

HELLO WORLD!

1 MONTH WITH MY BABY!!!

a month with you have been filled with LOTS of mixed feelings. i've made you really happy, and really sad. well, it's all over and now, we have to focus and move on to better months and hopefully years! =D much loves girl!

ALRIGHT! now to a more serious topic. FRIENDS.
well you see, friends are those that will call you up when they are meeting. for us? usual stuff like basketball, gym, cycling or just going out for stuff. it hasn't been the case lately. something i must get used to is being the minority of the groups of people i know. secondary school buds, dragonboating and all. being the last to get news is something that's a norm for me. however, being the last and at the really really last minute to receive a call to meet up and go somewhere when i'm already outside and they've probably already met up or something, that's something i really hate. and, when you're on the bus, happily with another person, and you see the usual bunch of friends you hang out with, chilling at the coffee shop, you feel left out. but, you just know, they don't really care. now, i don't really care. because i know true friends are those you won't find now, but only later in my National Service days. so i'll wait till then. in the mean time, i think i'll just be with the usual bunch, that is if they ask me out or something. oh yes, i need to clarify some doubts you readers are having. "why don't you ask them out?" this question floating in your minds? you see, being the minority, your words ain't too powerful, so, your decisions don't make much difference. =] friends! be nice. and, don't use stupid excuses to not ask a friend out.

2007-12-25T23:41:00.000+08:00

GF wants me to update. so here i am. =D

went to play pool with her couple of days ago. 10games. she lost 3 games because she got the 8 ball in. well about the other 7, she won them all. let's just move on.

she suddenly called me today and told me she was at the void deck of my block. was really surprised. got my bicycle and went down. she gave me a card with really sweet contents. =D i sent her home on foot and bike after that. went to Limbang and played ball with a kid first, then moved on to send her home.

i never want this sweetness to end

2007-12-21T22:22:00.000+08:00

went to Bukit Timah with my BIG apple today. she played pool with her classmates while i was studying for driving FTE. alright, i did play with her, 3 games. i don't want to say who swept the 3 games. i can only say, *whispers*, the taller one won. =x

after the game, went to Mac. got fillet o fish for her and double cheese for myself. sinful sinful. =x we ate the burgers in 852 on the way to Bukit Batok. went to the post office, she had to pay bills. then she was hungry, she was weird today. never seen her hungry before.

went outside and took 985 to BBDC for my driving FTE. she waited for me outside the classroom. i passed! finally i can move on and book my FTT. happiness.

walked home with her via Brickland. we sat under the MRT tracks because it RAINED. didn't really mind. rather cool. =D talked and talked until the rain stopped. then we continued our journey to her place. home sweet home for her, another 2 buses away from home for me. =]

photos time!

favourite shot?

'da shou qian xiao shou'

shadows. DUH?

her favourite shot.

2007-12-19T21:05:00.000+08:00

alright. today was a great day. GF was really nice to me. of the 3 days we've been out, she was the best today. i want her to keep going until her max. =] got everything i want out from her. and I AM SO HAPPY! anyway, she folded me a heart! it's like, NICE and everything. =D so looking forward to future dates. =D

SHE SAID WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR! =D =D =D

2007-12-18T21:39:00.000+08:00

alright. update time.

before we start. check out this link from Wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Lee
go to the part on Physical Feats. AMAZING!

Penang. had fun training there. was psyched up and everything for the competition. until the event management screwed the Under-18s. so, didn't get to paddle for any events there. sad, angry, disappointed, mixed feelings at that time. well, the U-23 and mixed team got Gold and Bronze respectively. well done for them. it's rather sad seeing your teammates, those who train with you and all, getting medals, while you sit aside, empty, watching them with their glory. well, i guess, i'll have to wait till next year to win something over my neck. a plate from SRR 07 just isn't enough.

Master Series. was substitute out of the line-up on the pontoon. speechless. seniors did well winning Silver, but still, it ain't enough.

Her. she's back. went to catch Enchanted with her yesterday. not bad. she sad it was the wrong show to watch. only the both of us know why. =] oh yes, she looked weird in my Ripcurl hoody jacket thing. =x met her today at Bukit Timah after my work-out and after her pool game. suppose to get great stuff to munch on, but change of plans. so we took a bus to the other end of the island. changed another bus to the south of the island. hopped onto another bus back to her place. sent her home.

baby, it's great having you with me. every time we go out, i keep expecting a lot. but, it seems i still ain't getting what i want. both of us know you need time, so it's time you shall have. you know exactly what i'm expecting of you. hope it ain't much to ask for. won't rush you. =] ilu <3

2007-12-06T18:26:00.000+08:00

alright! it's Thursday! we're setting off to Penang for our race! pray that the whole journey there and back will be safe! pray that i come back with a medal! i'm desperate already. c'mon Team SWOOSH! let's do it!

be back on Monday night!

guess what, Enterprise UT is on next Tuesday. =[

time to say goodbye! take care all! =DD

to GF.
don't worry about my trip.
i promise i'll be back to see you!
i'll chat with you if i have to opportunity to.
you must take care alright?
ilu!
toodles!

2007-12-04T08:49:00.000+08:00

talked to her through Skype last night. i miss GF. =[ for now, i can only hear the voice. 12 more days! come back! come back!

UT's starting in 5minutes. i haven't study yet.

i'm bored.

2007-11-26T22:34:00.000+08:00

hello people.

someone's not here. i'm just waiting for the person to come back. =]

well, tragedy rocked the dragon boating world. 5 Singaporean dragon boaters lost their lives in a Cambodian dragon boat race just last week. it's something saddening to hear, especially when you're in that sport. then there are questions running through your mind. how did the incident happen? why didn't they wait for the officials to tow them back? why were they without their life jackets? was it human error or did mother nature just strike at them? and then after all these questions, you think of who to blame for this incident. whatever it is, it's over, it's a lesson not only dragon boaters should learn, but something all who does water sports, competitive or recreational. since we can have the discipline to wear life vests or jackets here, let's apply the same discipline to everywhere we go. nobody wants to see the same thing happen. let's apply water safety in our lives!

yesterday's service was about the tongue and how we should tame it because it can turn out to be a weapon of destruction. yes, indeed it can. as Pastor Moh Ying went on to talk about it, i realised that a lot of what she said had to do with me. my tongue has destroyed friendships and many other things. it's time i learn to tame my tongue.

i want to drive by next semester. i want i want i want it BADLY!

so the Chicago Bulls are 2-10 down this season. they are not performing AT ALL. Boston Celtics on the other hand are performing like they used to in the past, leading the league with a 11-1 record. will the Bulls start to rise any sooner? i can only hope.

i have no idea what to do now.

2007-11-21T22:51:00.000+08:00

hello. here to update. let's talk about recent happenings.

i've volunteered myself as part of the organising committee of the BBQ this Friday. planning was a breeze, but collecting of cash just isn't. i was rather fed-up today because of it, but had to stay calm. but my personal message on MSN was, well, maybe a little harsh. i'm sorry because of that. you guys have to know how it feels not having people cooperating with you and must understand when organising things like that, we can't do anything without the cash. i know we ain't seniors or whatever, but, we just need everyone's cooperation to make the BBQ go smoothly. so the process is easy, you guys pay up and relax at the BBQ, and let us worry about the other things, simple! thanks people.

now, let's talk about something else. SINGAPOREANS. we are the worst people ever in Singapore, out own country. let's talk about our actions shall we? we'll start with our dear MRT.

in our MRT stations, there are lines to guide us on where to stand, but some people just don't bother! standing right infront of the doors, trying to squeeze through the alighting passengers so that they can get seats. IT IS VERY IRRITATING! the lines are there so there can be smooth traffic among the alighting and boarding passengers, SO JUST USE IT!

SMRT promoted the 'keep left on escalators' thing few years back. but it seems not everyone is listening! people just get on the escalator, stand anywhere they like, left/right/center, blocking the path of people behind who are rushing to catch a train or whatever. so these rushing people will eventually miss their trains or get late for and interview or something. the right side is for people walking down the escalator, so if you ain't walking or rushing, KEEP TO THE LEFT!

ON THE TRAIN! young lads play around the train, swinging on the pole like pole-dancers, while their parents stand or sit away and mind their own businesses. and you know kids, they hit you, stare, then continue playing! what's worst, the parents do the similar thing! see their children hit you, look at you, then continue with their own stuff. your kids are making so much public nuisance and you as parents ain't going to do anything? that shouldn't be the way. do something! handle the kids!

another thing on the train. i'll just keep this short and sweet. if you are ABLE-BODIED, please give up your seat the those who are not. put yourselves in their shoes and imagine how it feels being, for example, old and weak, and have no place to sit in the train on a long journey home. THINK!

train operators should something about these, maybe the 3rd and 4th problems are harder to deal, but the first 2 better be solved. impose a fine or something! do something to make life easier for those who obey the rules!

2007-11-12T23:10:00.000+08:00

here i am, suppose to do my RJ, but i'm blogging. now what's up with that?

alright. customised my laptop theme to Windows Vista, safely. it now sure does look and sound like a Vista laptop. *winks*

take a look!

2007-11-03T23:40:00.000+08:00

HELLO MS SHEN LINA!
HERE'S THE THING YOU WANT!
I AM SORRY FOR BULLYING YOU IF I EVER DID!
IT'S EVEN IN THE COLOUR YOU REQUESTED!
LOL!

PUBLIC APOLOGY TO THE PEOPLE OF W25E

guys, know my attitude was rather sucky today, really didn't know what got over me. i probably offended a number of you, so yea, here to say i'm sorry. hopefully it won't happen again.

MR. TT IS SORRY!

2007-10-25T23:26:00.001+08:00

back in action.

so we went to Fir's house last Saturday for visiting, or open house, no idea. around 30 D-boaters PLUS his relatives. wonderful. good food, good fun. oh yes, went to Ali's house before that with Rone too.

at SengKang Station. shut up. i know.

in the big man's house.

after the race, at Seletar. one of the happiest trainings we have.

the SDBF RPDB year 1s

the Master Series RPDB year 1s. see the difference?

i'm like going to try changing my blogskin tomorrow. i tried many times on my laptop and it doesn't work. so let's see if someone else's works. =D

alright. long overdue pictures. here goes.

i did this! =DD

i dedicate this song to myself.

Chris Daughtry - Over You
now that it's all said and done,
i can't believe you were the one
to build me up and tear me down,
like an old abandoned house.
what you said when you left
just left me cold and out of breath.
i fell too far, was in way too deep.
guess i let you get the best of me.

well, i never saw it coming.
i should've started running
a long, long time ago.
and i never thought i'd doubt you,
i'm better off without you
more than you, more than you know.
i'm slowly getting closure.
i guess it's really over.
i'm finally getting better.
and now i'm picking up the pieces.
i'm spending all of these years
putting my heart back together.
'cause the day i thought i'd never get through,
i got over you.

you took a hammer to these walls,
dragged the memories down the hall,
packed your bags and walked away.
there was nothing i could say.
and when you slammed the front door shut,
a lot of others opened up,
so did my eyes so i could see
that you never were the best for me.

well, i never saw it coming.
i should've started running
a long, long time ago.
and i never thought i'd doubt you,
i'm better off without you
more than you, more than you know.
i'm slowly getting closure.
i guess it's really over.
i'm finally getting better.
and now i'm picking up the pieces.
i'm spending all of these years
putting my heart back together.
'cause the day i thought i'd never get through,
i got over you.

well, i never saw it coming.
i should've started running
a long, long time ago.
and i never thought i'd doubt you,
i'm better off without you
more than you, more than you know.

well, i never saw it coming.
i should've started running
a long, long time ago.
and i never thought i'd doubt you,
i'm better off without you
more than you, more than you know.
i'm slowly getting closure.
i guess it's really over.
i'm finally getting better.
and now i'm picking up the pieces.
i'm spending all of these years
putting my heart back together.
well i'm putting my heart back together,
'cause i got over you.
well i got over you.
i got over you.
'cause the day i thought i'd never get through,
i got over you.

hello people!

had one of the best facilitators ever today. sadly, he's just a stand in for our Culture module facilitator. he's one of those fun kind of faci, but we are still able to learn from him. wonderful. i just love such facilitators. our 'form' facilitator for Culture ain't that bad either. there's like so many wonderful facilitators for our Communications and currently, Culture module.

there, Andre Ahchak. some of you might recognise him.

went for my very first advance theory lesson for driving. i've got like so many things to memorise. darn, why is learning how to drive such a terrible process?

i realised when i arrived home that i did not buy my own dinner! so i ate a slice of Häagen-Dazs ice-cream mooncake, some pineapple pastry thing, an egg tart and a cup of Milo. and there you have it. my dinner. kind of reminds me of the high tea at the Oriental. delicious.

anyone free to go to Peninsula tomorrow? i want to buy a pair of shoes! Gary isn't free, Daniel isn't free, An isn't free, who else is free?!

alright, will blog soon! pictures to be uploaded by next post! promise!

2007-10-09T23:11:00.000+08:00

above pictures were taken at The Oriental. great place to be at. the pastries there were great! high tea for around $28. go try it! MELT ~ The World Café

went to meet Gary and gang after high tea. went walking walking and we landed ourselves at Marina Square. went to eat at Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe. i didn't really eat cause i was still full from the high tea at Oriental. but i did try some of the food and it was GREAT, better than steamboat. just look below

Ying Yang - mix of Coffee and Tea with milk. TABLE #3!

toast. it's HUGE! covered with honey and a slice of butter on the top.

see how thick it is?

the mango ice-kachang thing. forgot what it's called. another HUGE dessert. even 3 people had trouble finishing.

the hole in the middle Gary and ES made. stylish.

and then it was flattened.

and then we made a smiley face!

and then the eating continued.

and continued.

and it was finished.

well, it was great that day. lots of good stuff. simply the best.

got my new table on Sunday! and my new chair too. =D i've got like 4 IKEA furniture in my room. table, chair, bed and TV shelve.

Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one way.
If you try to see it the other way and if you do see, your IQ is above 160

hello all. before i start anything, i just want to do what i promised a friend. you see, i told this friend i would dedicate a segment of my blog to her. and here it goes.

dear JOLENE, these are wonderful cameras you found in your storeroom. the fact that you destroyed them totally made me want to slap you upside down. yes, they're probably your age. but it only gives you an extra reason to maintain these jewels. if i were your dad, you would be DEAD.

alright, sticking to the subject of cameras, i want to get a D-SLR! tried the Canon 350D already. find it rather nice, but i still have to learn how to use a lot of the functions. can't remember what was the other camera i tried, was it the 400D? i forgot. it's cool anyway. i'll just be patient and wait till next year.

passed my Basic Theory Test for driving on the 26th of September. going for final theory! then practical! then, then, THEN, DRIVING LICENSE! i think it will take me 4months to complete everything. i want to drive ASAP! wish me luck!

3rd week of the 2nd semester of the first year of tertiary education in Republic Polytechnic. the whole class doesn't like the G102 facilitator. we all know why, we all do.

alright, it's time for me to go, i want to sleep! it's almost 1am in the morning right now, and i have got training tomorrow! need my rest. so, TOODLES!

2007-09-18T09:07:00.000+08:00

second day of school. i feel so sick. shouldn't have came to school. i'm going to faint.

thank God there isn't training today.

SAVA is over. look forward guys, look forward to win at the next competition. train hard, beat them.

haven't been to church for at least 3 weeks. the weeks ahead are going to be busy, not sure how i'm going to plan my time. dilemma dilemma. God help me?

so lonely, baby i'm so lonely.

2007-09-14T14:57:00.000+08:00

all the good girls are taken.

SAVA Sprints is approaching. in fact, it's tomorrow and Sunday. venue, Lower Seletar Reservoir. Team B will be part of the opening event for Saturday, 500m. i'm so looking forward to getting my first dragon boat medal with the rest of the team. come on Team B, WE CAN DO IT!

Harvey Norman's selling the Nikon D40 full kit below $1000. it's SO tempting. i hope such offers will come by when i'm getting my first digital SLR in a year or two. =D

well, SOH HUIMIN had to talk about her. making me rather emo. thank you very much

i had to post that, i just had to.

GPA for semester 1 in RP, 3.7/4. i realised i'm just 0.1 shy from getting into the roll of honours. DANG! i'm going to achieve a 3.8 next semester, watch me.

class for the second semester of year 1 will be W25E. Rone will be in the same class as me! my cousin's on the same floor, AGAIN. i have around 5 other dragon boaters on the same floor, too. wonderful.

2007-09-03T18:31:00.000+08:00

haven blogged for quite some time. so i'm going to do so right now. but it's going to be short.

i've been following the 'shopping theory', and well, it's been the same so far. probably need to give myself some time. only God knows.

failed my first try at the Basic Theory Evaluation, didn't study for it. thus, i'm going to study and go for it again on wednesday. wish me luck!

i have a request for the very few people who view my blog. which do you think is nicer? A or B or C? and what colour should i use for the word 'dragonboat'? do post your suggestion on my tagboard. thanks!

2007-08-20T15:55:00.000+08:00

nope, she didn't send me any greeting of any form for my birthday.

celebrated Mr Wong's birthday last Saturday at Fish & Co. together with the other officers, and the star's wife. it was really nice for us and fun. Mr Wong got 'SABO-ED' 3times within the short night. wonderful isn't it? anyways, down to food. ordered Seafood Platter (spelling?) for 2, together with OJJ. first time eating at Fish & Co. and what good food we tried, besides the fact that there were so many calamari that we can't finish, or rather i can't. (OJJ no eat calamari) well, it was a wonderful time we had that day and i love it!

Zelda shared with me what is called a 'SHOPPING THEORY'. here is how it works. ever had the times when you prepare $$ to shop around but end up not being able to get the things you want? instead, it's those times when you simply walk around and happen to bump into things that attracts you to want to buy them. it can be applied to looking for a partner, the more you look for one, the more you're not going to get one. i thought of it and found it rather true. well, i should really use it, see if it'll work. thanks Zelda. a million smiles to you. =]]

2007-08-16T21:54:00.000+08:00

finally. it has arrived. this day took 18years to finally come. I AM NOW 18YEARS OF AGE! I AM LEGAL! I AM GOING TO DRIVE WITHIN THE NEXT 6MONTHS! I LOVE MYSELF!

alright. enough about me. let's talk more about the day, which is still about me. =D

received SMS as early as 0000hrs(there JOLENE). well, the one i was wanting to see the first wasn't there. i'm still waiting. until 17th August arrives, i still have a glimmer of hope. let's see what God has for me.

i was expecting a meal from the class as what we did for the past 2birthdays. but, it didn't happen. didn't mind anyway, so it's alright. no presents whatsoever from anyone. i also don't mind because i'm not really the people's people. presents received each year by friends have been decreasing. so i'm used to it.

well, the day's coming to an end. still receiving wishes but not from HER. to the person who received a Precious Moments figurine from me on her birthday, if by 2359, i still haven't received a single wish from you, it means i should just give up. i know i probably can't, but i have to try. but for now, i still keep your face in my mind and reserve the 3 words for you. though you might not know this, but i still do have feelings for you. i really do.

2007-08-08T20:41:00.000+08:00

2007-08-07T22:04:00.000+08:00

my life is hitting low again. rapport with the people around me is getting bad. i don't really have any true friends around me except people from church. they are the real true friends i have. others are rather the same, maybe a handful are better.

taking today's training as an example. anonymous flared up when i told him to do dead lifts as a team. i mean, what is wrong with that, everyone's doing it. i don't mind if he doesn't agree, but i was shocked at the way he replied. i mean, talk nicely if you're not happy. i have to admit, my comments before he pushed me were harsh. things like, 'i have no say anymore, he's (anonymous) the leader'. i shouldn't have said that but it was out of a little anger. i'm no longer angry, and i also hope he isn't too. it's alright if he doesn't treat me as a friend, but we're still team mates.

i guess anonymous ain't the only one that doesn't like me in my IG. there are still many of them who doesn't like me, but i don't mind. i'm rather used to life like this. i've got all sorts of friends, true friends, 2-faced friends, hi-bye friends and lots more. but frankly, i just can't see anyone in the team as true friends, people that i can really share my problems with. well, i can be friendly to anyone who is the same to me. if people choose to just maintain the relationship with me as just team mates, be it.

people use to be friendly with me, until now. maybe it's just me, my attitude. i'm starting to change. i start to take casual insults seriously. i don't allow people to climb on my head anymore.
well, it can also be the other way. people take me for granted.

oh well, i'll try my best not to talk too much to people anymore for the time being. maybe things will change? i hope so.

tomorrow's going to be a lonely day.

2007-08-01T23:40:00.000+08:00

the most shocking news i saw this morning, KEVIN GARNETT has moved to BOSTON CELTICS. yes, there were speculations before but i never thought he would really move there. what's even more surprising, he's now a #5, no more KG#21. well, can just hope that he will win a championship before he retires, which i feel is within the next 5-6 years. 3 great stars of the NBA in one legendary team, can Paul Pierce work towards a championship with his 2 new multi-time all-star teammates, Garnett and Ray Allen?

2007-07-29T01:20:00.000+08:00

alright, haven't blogged for so long. SO HERE I AM TO DO SO!

went for the WWE Summerslam Tour today at Singapore Indoor Stadium. it was great! wonderful. i'll post some of the pictures and let them tell you the story. =D

today's my mum's birthday. left earlier from training and went to have buffet with my mum, bro and his girlfriend at Phoenix Hotel. the food there's great. the nasi lemak, roti prata, meatballs and lots of other stuff. those who wants to try the food there, better do so ASAP! the whole building is going to be torn down very soon. it's just beside Somerset MRT Station. good stuff people, good stuff.

i just can't get you off my head. the past few days i've been thinking a lot. i really don't know what i'm suppose to do. i want to chat with you, but i'm afraid that the outcome will be a negative one. i want to ask you out, but it seems like such a difficult task to do. it's been so long we've even sat down to chat. i'm just so damn confused. i really don't know what i'm suppose to do. it's just so hard for me to let go.

2007-07-12T23:09:00.000+08:00

my classmates in RP knows how excited i was today. but meeting you today wasn't the way i expected. the atmosphere was weird. the closeness we had totally disappeared. i don't even know the relationship between the both of us anymore. are we still friends? if so, is it just a status we label ourselves with? every time we pass each other it'll only be hi and then a bye, nothing else?

not much reaction when i gave you the stuff. i never did finish saying what i wanted to. i'm sorry for being so unprofessional with my words when talking to you.

ever thought why i actually went after you to wait for the lift together? i had loads to say to you but just didn't know how to during that situation. what has happened? i really want to know. and, i don't blame you for anything, so don't be sorry.

only in the recent weeks did i realise that your presence is still in my heart. there have been many other attractive girls i've seen and some i've known. but it's just a total different feeling. remember that day when i saw you from 187? your smile got me once more, and i fell deeper. i'm back to square one right now.

emotions emotions emotions. on Friday, there'll be trouble. i really believe so.

i feel like shit right now. i'm tired, i don't know if i'm frustrated or i'm sad.

i don't know how long this thing is going be, so people around me, don't ever try to agitate me. people in RP haven't seen my anger, YET.

i really don't know what i did wrong again. damn.

i'm so full of problems right now.

God please help me.

2007-07-06T20:32:00.000+08:00

now is not the time to agitate me.

been emo the whole week and it ends PERFECTLY.

damn.

i'm so frustrated about something. i volunteered myself for an event even with my busy schedule. person-in-charge said i was going to be in it and i was so looking forward to it. when i messaged that person today to find out the training schedule, she told me i'm not in it because they took into consideration of my busy schedule blah blah blah. i'm not being petty, but i feel that i should know this earlier and not last minute. if i did not message that person, will i even be informed about me being taken out of the event? i already made plans about the event and now this. i really have nothing to say.

what am i to do? what if that thing that someone said was true?

2007-07-01T15:28:00.000+08:00

we raced on 30th June 2007 for the first time. it was Event No. 26, we came in 4th with the time of 4:05:90.

before any senior(s) start scolding me for this post, PLEASE LEAVE A TAG if i'm not suppose to post this.

2007-06-30T00:20:00.002+08:00

well, it's here. 30th June 2007. i'll keep that date deep in my mind. my first time representing a school in a sports event, a somewhat major one. i won't mention what sport it is(we all know why). i'm just going to do my best and let God do the rest.

alright, enough said. i need some sleep and that's what i'm going to do.

alright, today's UT is screwed. let's not get into it alright?

i want to learn driving quick! i'm so damn lazy.

people misuse the privilege of bus concessions. they take buses for the shortest distance. they take buses because they have nothing better to do. for example, take 187 from Woodlands to BP, alight and board 67 to CCK, board 925 after that back to Woodlands. it's rather ridiculous isn't it. one more thing, I'M ACTUALLY ONE OF THEM!

where is the love?

2007-06-25T09:27:00.000+08:00

i took the following from Sonika's blog. READ IT!
Best friends are like a four leaf clover, hard to find and lucky to have. Some people make the world special by just being in it. Best friends are the siblings God forgot to give us. When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be there. True friendship never ends. Friends are forever. Good friends are like stars....you don't always see them, but you know they are always there. Don't frown, you never know who is falling in love with your smile. Everything is okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the end. Most people walk in and out of your life, but only friends leave footprints in your heart.

2007-06-21T09:43:00.000+08:00

the class is exceptionally noisy today.

UT was alright just now.

played basketball after training yesterday. on the defensive end, i was really on form. block shots and rebounds. MINE! on the offensive end, my shots were alright.

i'm bored.

2007-06-20T08:59:00.000+08:00

alright, here i am again, BLOGGING.

yesterday's UT was fine. hopefully i can get at least a B. please?

i really do not know what to blog about.

give me some time to think.

went to CWP with Chui, SW and JS. went to LJS to eat. i took a long time deciding whether i wanted to or not. i ended up eating anyway. then we went around the mall. fooled around in COURTS. watched people play that huge machine in the arcade with tonnes of sweets. it's 1buck per try. i rather spend that buck on provision shops. back to the topic, we went to the library after that. slacked around. got ticked off by the librarian. JS wasn't happy about that. we shifted to a corner. Chui and i surfing the net. all 4 left at 2000hrs.

did the very difficult RJ at home. it's actually rather easy to write once you know what it really means. i finished the RJ around 2345.

time for presentation! and, i started this darn post in the beginning of the day, around 0900. it's 1500 now. wonderful!

2007-06-18T09:06:00.000+08:00

went to church yesterday. haven't been there for a few weeks already. God knows why. anyway, service was great. the worship was wonderful, except for the first song, can't remember what it was. sermon was fine, some doctor was preaching, funny guy.

Issac can walk so steadily now. i feel so happy for him. and he has grown taller since the last time i saw him. i love that kid.

went to Queensway and then to town yesterday. we walked from Heeren to City Hall to get donuts. but i left earlier, so i have no idea if they got the donuts. anyway, there was this guy cycling towards Serangoon Road. (HINT HINT) when we were about to cross the road, he came out of the blue and almost knocked me. this was what i said/shouted, "OI! this one your country ah? red light still go?!" i think there was more to it, but i won't say much. his reaction? turned back, looked at me, and cycled off.

here i am in school. bored. TPP's lesson. i want to sleep!

2007-06-16T21:35:00.000+08:00

well, we have came to the end of the NBA season. the San Antonio Spurs has won the finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Spurs did a good job and the performed like champions. they clinched their 4th title since '99 and are undoubtedly to be a team made for the history books. now we have to wait till the end of the year for another exciting season of basketball.

i will never make it into journalism.

no more fast food please. no more.

i actually have a whole load of things to blog, but i'm restricted to. so, guess i'll just end here. bye kids!

when will your face leave my mind? i'm being held back by it. is it good? i have no idea. damn. what is wrong with me?

2007-06-13T16:49:00.000+08:00

I'VE GOT NOTHING TO SAY ON 13/06/2007!!!

2007-06-11T10:35:00.001+08:00

alright, blogging here while the others are having training. sorry guys, having fever right now. can't really do anything. WORK HARD GUYS!

not suppose to update about how we train in DB. so i can only say that the past week was tiring but nice. good to see people improving in all aspects. go RPDB!

i just realised that you are still in my mind, in my heart. 4years and you're still stuck here. why can't i get you off? can someone help me with this?

2007-06-05T22:51:00.000+08:00

went to SCSS today. the sec 3s are having their leadership camp right now. i want to talk about something really nice first. someone, i can't remember who, told me i look better right now. i was so happy inside. and another thing is that Samo said i look 'huggable'. so it's like, i'm a teddy bear or something. compliments day! anyway, i think i might be one of the flag bearers for SCSS's National Day Parade. i just hope i have enough time for DB and that.

going home with 3 other people was so much like going home alone. Zelda was with Benjamin, Melvin was on the phone with God knows who, and there i was, walking alone with my pedal. i felt rather lonely. i mean, SINGLE AND LONELY! i don't blame the other 2 for not accompanying me though.

will talk all about dragon boat at the end of the week.

2007-06-02T19:26:00.000+08:00

went to Lavender to get my shorts and then to Suntec city for the PC Show. after that, saw Arthur Ngoh emo-ing at 'That CD Shop' at Raffles City. well, not exactly emo-ing but he was just listening to music alone there. anyway, gary and i took the LONG way home after that.

today, i think our boat did well, but not good enough. took A LOT of effort for us to beat the female senior team. come on guys, WE CAN DO BETTER! GO TEAM!

the year 1 CSC team put in all they had for the race and i can only say, WELL DONE. though you guys did not win, take it as a good experience and buck up during the SDBF! let's put in our best for the next competition!

i actually got 'A' for Problem Solving UT! i am AMAZED!

i'm going to fall sick soon.

2007-05-31T22:19:00.000+08:00

happy Vesak Day kids. went to play basketball early in the morning with Gino, An and TH. left for home at 1030 because my mum and i were meeting my aunts and grandma for lunch at Mushroom Pot. then had to wait for Daniel and Gary before we headed to Marina Square and after that Queensway. Daniel got his new pair of basketball shoes after deciding for a LONG time. it was home sweet home after that.

here i am, sitting on the sofa watching the French Open, Nadal vs Cipolla. score now is 6-2, 6-1, 3-1, with Nadal leading all the games. i watched Justin Henin play last night too. tennis is nice.

i'm signing up for SHL Cup's Basketball competition. hope i get in! and also that it does not clash with my dragon boat training.

2007-05-27T23:05:00.000+08:00

the weather is REALLY REALLY humid. it's so irritating. have to bathe so many times in a day because i kept perspiring. damn.

i didn't know by creating a group on friendster can cause me so much trouble. i went to click on notify all 1st degree friends and i thought it's only notifying people that i now have that group. it turned out to be inviting them to join and people are 'BOMBING' me with comments stuff that they're not from 5n2 06`. i APOLOGISE to all who are not suppose to be in that group but received the NOTIFICATION. SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION!

要找一个爱你的人真难。。。

2007-05-24T22:44:00.000+08:00

do not criticise me if you do not have better skills than i do. i pedal like a chicken wing you say? if you were a senior, i wouldn't mind you saying that. we're new to this sport for your information. we're still learning! so if you want, you correct me, you give me comments. don't start criticising me BEHIND my back. damn.

I WILL PROVE ALL WHO LOOK DOWN ON ME WRONG!

2007-05-22T22:17:00.000+08:00

played basketball today. realised that my skills have really dropped A LOT. my shot-blocking is not the standard i had before. it's rather frustrating though. well, with so much time being occupied by other stuff, i do not have much left for basketball. sometimes, 24hours a day, 7days a week, just ain't enough for one to enjoy.

before i forget, thanks NADIA for helping me keep my adapter. also, for keeping me in suspense. it's so typical you. *oops* thanks anyway. appreciate it!

where is the girl of my dreams?!

2007-05-21T22:46:00.000+08:00

i'm feeling disappointed. i didn't get into the team for the competition this Saturday or Sunday. but that ain't going to demoralise me. it's just going to make me train harder for the next competition! I WILL MAKE IT INTO THE TEAM! DAMN IT I WILL!

2007-05-20T22:16:00.001+08:00

went to National Stadium today to get some last pictures of it. used my Canon Powershot S3IS. the pictures are really beautiful. i think i'll post it later this week, probably tomorrow or the day after.

for those of you that have been living under a rock, this is what's happening. the government's tearing down the National Stadium to build a new one. in case you're thinking how it's going to look like, go to your toilet, stare at the thing you will normally use when you go to a toilet anywhere. that is how it's going to look like. to add on, the stadium's facing the sea or river (whatever). what a sight. well, actually, the designer is designing it to look like a HORSESHOE. but, it really does look like the thing in the toilet. no offense.

alright, i'm going to answer everyone who ask me "WHY DIDN'T YOU JOIN BASKETBALL?! I THOUGHT YOU ALWAYS WANTED?! BLAH BLAH HECK?!". there were 3 trainings for the coach to decide on who to get into the team. i went for the first 2 and not the last. why? because God said so. for those who really know me, i am not one who will simply give up on my passion. basketball IS my passion. playing competitive basketball is a DREAM and will continue to be a DREAM at this moment. i wasn't demoralised, i didn't give up, I DID NOT BACK OUT. i simply allowed God to decide on what i should do. it's rather simple. now, i just want to concentrate on getting into the Dragon Boat team. i want to win medals for myself, and trophies for the team. i want to create new passions. i want to excel in different things. NO, i ain't giving up on basketball. i'm just spending lesser time on it. i'm not going to be lousier at any part of it. i'm going to keep doing it till the day i'm too weak for it. if there should be a chance for me to play competitive basketball, i will. but it's not going to affect my Dragon Boat training. when i'm in an IG or CCA, i commit to it. for the school, for the seniors, for the team, for myself.

i have to clarify that Dragon Boat is not a 'no choice have to go for this IG' kind of thing. even before i entered poly, i gave myself 2 choices, Basketball or Dragon Boat. apparently, it's Dragon Boat i've chose, and it's Dragon Boat i shall stick with. HAPPILY.

i ain't angry, i'm just motivating myself. so, relax. i am a happy man. MAN.

2007-05-20T08:48:00.000+08:00

yea!

1 gay, 2 men.

from boaters, to gravediggers.

hehe?

i was supposed to be EMO here.

erm. yea.

2007-05-19T18:28:00.000+08:00

had my 2nd DB rowing session today, and i am seriously seriously loving DB more and more. it's tiring but also very fun. anyway, we learned how to get the strokes right today. we still need more training for us to fully master the strokes. another thing is the pacing. i think that our group is doing well, but we still have to improve on it. it's somewhat on and off. yes, we did win that mini pacing race against Group 2, but we can't be complacent. both teams are still improving and i hope all of us are able to do well. go RPDB go!

2007-05-18T19:53:00.000+08:00

been really tired these few days. i woke up at 7 and thought i could sleep for another 5min. my five minutes lasted for 2hours. by the time i woke up, it was 9. i rushed and got a cab to RP. $9.50, including the morning surcharge. expensive expensive. what's with taxis and that high price. sometimes it's just so irritating. i just want to drive, QUICK. my legs and hands are already itching.

i really do not know what to do. i feel so lonely. yes, i do have a bunch of great mates with me in class and outside school. but, it's not enough for me. i'm just not satisfied to be single. but i still can't find someone to love me. when will the day come? why does God forbid me to be loved by a wonderful lady. sometimes, when i think too much of it, i will just tear. am i fated to be single? i will let God decide on that, but i hope He will hint me quick.

2007-05-18T00:48:00.000+08:00

i'm just blogging because i see a name on my tag board which is rather surprising.

TRAVIS. is that you?!

2007-05-16T22:47:00.000+08:00

i'm loving dragon boat more and more. i love RPDB!

today's training was alright. the only thing that was tough will be the stupid punishments we caused. we should have moved with speed. supporting Travis' statement, it's stupid for us to do those punishments. oh well, since it's over, and i think that we are slowly reducing those stupid mistakes, what the heck! i'm just looking forward to Saturday's rowing session. I LOVE PEDDLING!

i think my favourite group so far would be my Communication group. bunch of people that will work. it's cool. i've yet to work with Mas and Steven. i think it'll be cool. i've yet to be with my ideal team. which is? a secret.

exactly 3 more months to driving lessons. i am SO FREAKING excited! drive drive drive!

what to do with my love life?

2007-05-12T22:25:00.001+08:00

first rowing session tomorrow. i am SO excited! now i can finally do what i've been singing since nursery. ROW ROW ROW MY DAMN BOAT!

i think i'm addicted to CS. but i ain't going to spend money on stuff like "special" mouse and mouse pad and other things.

ISSAC IS FINALLY WALKING! i'm so happy for him. he's happy walking too. such a cute little boy. celebrated his 1st birthday last Thursday.

RAFAEL NADAL SHOUTS LIKE A GAY WHEN PLAYING TENNIS

really no point to fall for anyone.

2007-05-11T17:38:00.000+08:00

hi, i'm blogging in front of 4 people in the class. i'm crazily using the projector. i have nothing better to do. can the 4 people who are viewing this PLEASE tag me. thanks. my tagboard has been rather dead. Mas, you don't know i have a blog. it's like, so hurting. i just want to cry right now. and Mas is like laughing away. evil kid.

Sonika's playing with her tablet PC. sometimes, i just envy people who use tablets. it's so cool to write on the screen. the words will come out SO nice. i love it.

we had McDonald's in class today. Nadia was like so excited and stuff. it was nice. like a picnic! but our class smelt of fries after we finished.

TPP was exceptionally nice today. why? we don't know too. but we made a Friendster profile for him. how nice are we?!

it's kind of pointless falling in love.

2007-05-09T23:07:00.000+08:00

had dragon boat training today. ran 5km non-stop. i feel that sense of achievement. i feel good. well, weights today was alright. the hardest part would be the 8pull-ups 20push-ups part. it's really hard for me. but i am determined to stay at RP's dragon boat team. I AIN'T GOING TO GIVE UP!

i love myself

2007-05-08T09:56:00.000+08:00

dragon boat training yesterday was tough, BUT it was really nice. i enjoyed it. it's helping me to push my body to the limit, which was fun. the gym equipment part was rather easy, what was difficult was the 8pull-ups 20-30push-ups part. all 3 sets of it. damn i love dragon boat. i want to sweat it all out. that's my kind of fun.

going to kallang basin on sunday. time, 1200 - 1400. the sun is going to be nice. i love the sun.

i want to be in love.
f.y.i - i am no desperado

2007-05-05T02:05:00.000+08:00

it's like 2am in the morning now. i'm still full of energy. i'm blogging from school. i'm having SHL camp. she's like so far away from me. i feel so sad.

i almost quarreled with this faci, TAN PENG PENG. it's like so fun. i feel so bad. NOT.

SHL CAMP IS BORING.

2007-05-02T09:34:00.000+08:00

i still ain't feeling well. what i know now is that there's lots of phlegm in my lungs or where ever. really really green ones. disgusting, isn't it. but you know, you have that great feeling when you get those darn things out of your body. which was really hard for me to do on monday. but it's getting out now. bit by bit.

i ain't going for the final basketball tryout. someone psycho-ed me out of it. that someone is either the devil, or God. i'm not sure either. just hope i'm making the right choice. it's hard for me. really hard.

2007-04-30T12:03:00.000+08:00

i'm sick. damn.

on the brighter side. CHICAGO BULLS SWEEP MIAMI HEAT 4-0! bye bye HEAT. hello Pistons! let 2007 be the year of the UNDERDOGS! GO BULLS GO!

2007-04-27T23:21:00.000+08:00

had my second tryout today. really tired. my left ankle is breaking, right thigh aching. i got 'knee-ed' in the right thigh, which explains the ache, i got 'elbow-ed' in the hip, and i got whacked by a huge forearm right in my eye and forehead area. i love basketball.

i've got one last chance next friday to show that i can play. it's all about the pride and the interest right now. prove myself, prove to the others. I CAN DO IT!

i just need to beat those chinese nationals. man they're good.

2007-04-25T19:37:00.000+08:00

i had my first ever basketball training yesterday, or maybe it's just called a tryout. well anyway, i was rather excited, maybe a little too nervous too. i couldn't dribble with 2 balls, one on each hand. it was a great challenge for me. but i was rather happy when i had a chance to play against the year 2s and 3s. i was really happy, and i showed it, that i scored the only 2points for my first team. coach than seperated us into 2 groups. group 1 is obviously the group with players of better skills, and group 2 is the one with, well, not so good players. daniel and i fell into group 2. we have probably one last chance to perform on Friday. i'm not too sure whether there'll be anymore trainings besides the next one. i just hope that i can get my dream come true, to play competitive basketball that is.

disappointed. disheartened. when can i start to play in an official team. to score points that are recorded. to grab critical rebounds for a fighting team. to block game winning shots from an opposing team. nobody who has played ball with me, besides Mr Michael (Director of SHL), has any hopes in me to get into a basketball team. they will simply give comments which would hurt me indirectly. i won't get my confidence level low. i cannot afford to let these people continue to look down on me. i want to make a name for myself. despite failures and critisism, i will try my best and prove all who look down on me wrong.

i have failed too many times in too many things in life. i cannot afford to fail anymore.
