wow, last entry was 12 december, it's 22th december now and already so much has happened which i didn't blog about. haha.



13-15dec. CHC Breakaway Youth Camp.

first day, met up with my members at the MRT station, and we arrived late cause we had to wait for some people. when we got to the hall of Koh Chuan Presbyterian High there already groups of people cheering. we went over to our house (Warriors) and tried to catch up on the cheers. surprisingly most of the people there were quite "ons". haha, i guess it's the CHC spirit :P can't remember much from the camp itself, except that we played many games and on my birthday at midnight i was "captured" by my members and w376 and subsequently water bombed. i knew they were up to something. haha. oh, also, the session on day 1 of the camp was terrific. really like the prasie and worship, when edwin, wj's classmate and WYZ zone cell leader played Breakaway. really look/sound like Poh from the expo service praise and worship team. afterwards wj showed me a picture of edwin in class and immediately i was like "that's the guy who led praise and worship?!" couldn't believe it, damn funny. haha, won't elaborate though. wel, eventually we got 4th placing, but it's ok, had a great time. our "ally", Ninja, betty's house, won first place. good for them. haha.



17-19dec. Orientation Training Camp.

the theme was movies. the GLs were seperated into different empires, each named after a genre. Phantos (fantasy), Fyrtho (horror), Accion (action), Venos (romance) and lastly, my empire, Komez (comedy).



betty, sholleh and i got into the same empire. the only other MOI person, mal, got into fyrtho. haha, she had min, so i guess it was ok. lol.

hmm, at the start breakaway camp was more fun, but as time went along the games became more fun. i guess it's cause my group grew closer together. haha, i can't really remember alot of the events now, but yea, haha, met new people, and sad thing is, i can't remember half their names, hahahaha. there's a contact list, but still can't match some names to faces.

i guess so far the empire's favourite cheer is ko leh cai. haha, if you met me you probbably know what is it by now, hahaha. another nice cheer is Accion's A-c-c-i-o-n cheer. simple but nice. haha.fyrtho damn suay though, kena suan by us and accion like crazy on day 3. poor min. :P

guess that's all for the camp. jusst glad to say i completed one of the wishes in the "Forgotten Wishes List". still feel good about it.

MCR concert in a few hours time :)


today schedule damn hectic. started by meeting priscilla at 1.30 (supposed to be 12.30, but she changed to 1, then i arrived late. haha) at bugis to go to bras basah to search for items to decorate the cell group appreciation awards. got a few acrylic paints and a marker with gold on one side and silver on the other :)


after buy those stuff we headed to raffles place to help jess buy something, before going to redhill to pass it to her and pick up the undecorated awards. i got to look at the phones her father bought from china, got one damn cool. haha, no sony ericsson phones though :(


afterwards pris and i went over to her house with the intention of decorating, ended up slacking instead. i looked through her entire vcd collection. well, let's just say it's a good thing daniel wasn't there. stacks and stacks CDs. he he. waited for jon to arrive, and we continued slacking until jackson came, and still trying to postpone doing work, we played around and amde some "guesswork". haha. afterwards we finally got down to decorating. there'll be a sneak preview later on. haha.


had a great time with the 3 of them. come to think of it, the 4 of us never really got together before. well, first time for anything, right? decorated, went for dinner, overheated a hairdryer along the way. macdonald's is damn lazy. just because of a little bit of rain they refused to do delivery, even after the rain stopped. well, it's their loss. wasted our time though, we walked a long way to the coffeeshop and a long way back. i must say that i'm quite impressed and satisfied at our progress. haha.


jon's grandfather picked both of us up and dropped me at kvan mrt, and all too familiar place. haha. and yes, i said grandfather. jon, he's like, 70+ already, but still driving around in a van! how cool is that! he looks like he's 50, 60 at most. sigh, one of my grandfather is dead, the other one is 90+ year old and can's speak english or chinese, and i can't speak hokkien. damn, i don't have grandparent's love. haha. my grandma rocks though, still kickin' at 60 something, whipping up fantastic dishes along the way. tian xia zhi you po po hao, you po de hai zhi.. er, la la la.
and here's a preview of our work. we do till damn shag, so please appreciate it, w450!

actually jon posed for this photo. before it we were slacking and watching heroes on channel 5. shhh.........

so there you have it, my day. haha. would end here, but there's something i wanna say as a spectator.

a blog is for you to share your experiences with people you know, and maybe even don't know. through it you can let people have a glimpse of your thoughts, perceptions, experiences, etc. blogs are made for the purpose of being seen by everyone, and anyone who objects to that idea claiming passwords might help is a retard. you don't post something you don't want people to read.

that being said, i have to agree that blogs are personal. people edit the template to make it look like what they want it, thereby giving people a glimpse into their minds. others just blantantly rip off people's skins, and some don't even acknowledge the ones who made it. that however is not the point. the point is that some people take blogs too personally. they write out every single thing that comes to their mind. some good, but occasionally some bad, be it racist remarks, defaming comments, and so on. the trouble starts when people go for personal attacks, saying things that they know will affect specific people, and with no intention of doing good. they can say things that hurt people, and when confronted, they make remarks about how their blog is just that, their blog, and they could post anything they wanted, and that if people don't like it then they can just not read it. this is about the most childish behaviour i know. yes, i admit that once i was like that, saying something about my good friend which i'm not really proud of. thankfully i salvaged that relationship, but not all outcomes are the same.

my point is, you can't say something about someone on your blog, even if you didn't specify who, and deny all responsibility by asking that person not to read it. it's like screaming at a five year old kid, and when he starts crying you deny responsibility by saying that he could have covered his ears and not listen.

why am i writing such a long essay on this topic? let's just say that i'm a spectator. i don't like to take sides, but if i'm forced to, then i think i know whose i'll take.

it seems like its a ritual for me now that everytime i try to post i start rambling on about how slow blogger is. i mean, i tried on BOTH firefox and IE, but both took forever. ah heck. maybe that's why some people prefer sites like wordpress, livejournal, etc. me, i won't be changing anytime soon, cause i'm a computer idiot and i rely heavily on blogger's user-friendliness. interesting fact for you, i was in my sec school's IT club. sometimes i tell people that i and i can't help but feel like there's a thought echoing out of their mind through their ears and into the surrounding area going "nerd...nerd...nerd...nerd..." i mean, come one, give me a break, i was only in there cause of the cameras, and that's the only reason also as to why i know the people in TP. without playing with the camera's in IT club, i wouldn't have gone into TP's moving images course, thus i'll probably end up somewhere in like, SP or NP, maybe even RP, which is much closer than TP. ah well, why am i talkign about this anyways? i didn't wait 5-10 mintues for blogger to load just to talk crap.

i don't know, but it seems like i've been kinda neglecting my friends in TP nowadays. i hardly have time to go out with them now. yea, sure, it's the holidays, but i still have things to do. i think the people i've REALLY neglected are angie andrea dion jake wendy and etc. i mean, in the past two days i've turned them down twice. today i actually thought i had to do something later on, so i turned down the movie at dion's house. i told wendy i'll be free on wednesday and thursday though. afterwards the thing i had to do was postponed to thursday, so i'm not free then, and just now i jsut got a call, and now i'm not free on wednesday either. sad life.

sigh, shuxian's birthday is tomorrow, and i'm broke. afterwards it's wendy's at 24th, plus, MCR concert on 11dec seems to be so far away now. apparently kezia still haven't got the tickets. dammit, i will never forgive myself if i don't go for the concert. last resort, buying the tickets, and even then, who will i ask to go with me? and what if it's already sold out? damn. sometimes i just wish i had more time. maybe i should learn better time management, ie. stop playing games/going out andreachign home late in the night, and having to wake up late the next day feeling like hell and not wanting to go out. sigh. games can really drain someone. first it was grand theft auto, which kept me up till like, 4-6am in the morning. after i realised waht was happening i decided to back off from the game for awhile. then along came C&C3. damn. if only there was this pill i could take that can give me endless energy, that i don't have to sleep, and it won't affect my eyebags. the other day i was sick and went to school, jill said she couldn't tell when i'm sick, cause my eyebags are dark and thick all the time. haha.

well, i guess that's enough of my rantings for now. next on my to-do list, suck it all up and go through with it.

And through it all, the rise and fall...


ah, finally, i can post. blogger took up 2 minutes of my life just to load this page. hmm, quite long since i last posted. happy to say that i'm finally having my holidays now. done with animation, hope i can at least pass it so i won't have to do it again next year.

oh, since i'm touching on that, let me tell you what happened on my last day in class. in fact, i'll list down all the things that screwed me over.

1. entered class, found out that the computer i usually used was being used by another person, so i couldn't take out my files from there yet.

2. tried to get the first season of "Heroes" from shuxian, but my laptop took forever to detect her hard drive.

3. decided to just go ahead and put in what i had in my laptop inside my CD first, then wait for the girl to get out of my seat so i could take out my files from the computer.

4. jem pressed the eject button on my laptop, effectively causing it to hang and making me have to restart my laptop and pray that the CD isn't closed yet. thankfully it wasn't, and i could still put my other files in. don't worry jem, i still hate you forever :P

5. got my files from the computer, but had to go down to the lecture room because the lecturers were already waiting for us all.

6. reached the lecture theater, decided to put everything into my CD. halfway through, my battery went flat.

7. went around the whole place looking for a socket, before finding one all the way in front next to the teacher's table and embarrassing myself in front of everyone when i took my charger and laptop in front. thank God not everyone was there yet so they weren't just waiting for me, and also that i was shameless enough not to let it bother me.

8. finally done with the CD, but then realised i lost my CD cover, so i had to embarrass myself going all over the place trying to find it.

9. gave up looking for it after like, 10-20 minutes. took a piece of paper and wrapped my CD and gave it up to the lecturer. he commented something about the paper showing my attitude towards my work. ah heck, i just need to pass.

so there, you have it. The List.

attended zhipeng's wedding yesterday, as in, monday. so nice. haha, although we were seated all the way at a far corner, couldn't really see what was going on in front. oh, we actually had praise and worship during the wedding, how cool is that? haha, then pastor Zhuang came and shared abit, surprised that he didn't give an altar call. haha. after that, they tied the knot, said their vows, and were finally married. haha, so cool. zhipeng is like, one of my idols, as in, i don't worship him, but look up to him. the way he leads his cell group, he isn't afraid to tell you when you are wrong. next time when i lead my own cell, i think i wanna be like him. of course, as a member of jessica's cell, i will also be a very cute and handsome cell group leader. haha, inside joke.

oh, terrence and i took some cool pics together. haha, we imitated zhipeng and tiffany's wedding photos. there was one on the beach where zhipeng jumped up in the air, holding tiffany's hand. another was where they both lie down on the sand, with the sun behind. terrence and i copied those pic. haha, look damn retarded. i'll get weijian to send me the photos, then i'll post it up.

well, i guess this post is enough to cover for all the days i was missing from the blogging world. till next time, cya!

ps. my birthday is coming. i'm free 0n 10th, 12th, and 20th december onwards. anyone wanna ask me out? hint hint. hahaha
