bad run:(

Wahh.. i just looked up the google earth to find the distance i ran on one of the nghts of the Union camp. dissappointed;2.12Km X 2. My timing?? 24:24mins. Well, i thought i ran fast la, but no it's not so fast. If i had known the distance, i'ld have gone for below 20 mins. well, i shall excuse myself since there were extreme uphills and downhills. Well, quite tired today- went to temple in the morning, driving lesson in the afternoon and QiuHan's B'day party at night... I'll blog tmr.I'll have nothing much to do.

emo-the IN thing

"emo is the IN thing now."

I've been wanting to blog about this for quite sometime.

just some surprising things about me::

Intro::Everytime someone fails to reply me or everytime someone ignores me, be it a stranger or somone i know, or even my close friend, i'll get super-emo. 'Emo' here doesn't mean angry. It just means that i'll feel extremely hurt:(:( Yes. i know it's difficult to survive in today's world with this kinda thing, but i've been living (mostly) happily for the past 2 years in my JC :) Thanks a lot to my friends and tutors who took great care of me :) Ya...Although it may not be very obvious to some of you all, I'm a super-sensitive to the people around me. However, there's one thing that has enabled me to cope with this: Whenever i emo, i'll ask myself to sort things out logically and to resolve the situation as soon as possible.

Cos, over the years i've come to realise that emo-ing is of no use. There's also no use to feeling sad or dissapointed.Really. Think: Is feeling this way going to solve anything? NO. So, why waste your time?? ya.. that's why i feel that it's more efficient to think about things and solve them immediately. It really makes me feel better since it's a way of tranferring worries from the heart to the mind.

1. Till now, i've been thinking about the kind of songs that i like to listen to. I've normally considered myself to be listening to a wide variety of songs; from Linkin Park to Daniel Powter. But recently, i've just noticed something: about 97% of the songs that I enjoy listening to, are emotional songs. C'mon, just look: Love you lately, Bad day- Daniel powter. This i promise you- N'sync. I can't hate you anymore- Nick Lachey. In the end, Crawling- Linkin Park... and the list goes on.

2.I save each and every msn chats. Yes. Even those where I msg and get no reply.

3. I started running long distances frequently to make myself fell better, whenever i emo.
Well, it's really not that i run to stop emo-ing,but yah.. that's sort of how it started.

There's more, but i think i'll just stop here.

first lectures

YaYYY !! my first lectures are going to be next week! well, they are actually some bridging lectures for poly students but they'll be going through stuff such as partial differentiation, which would be usefull to me. Some revision wouldn't hurt too, and i can't wait for my first lecture,,, so, why not?

I went for driving today. I met siti near the YCK station! I've really not been keeping in touch with my secondary school people. I'm much better now, but there's still a lot of room for improvement.ya.. then i dropped by nyjc. Now, i've to study for my QET and figure out the module bidding thing, so i can't stay too long at ny these days:( Sorry guys... hey, i'll try to stay back next week okay? i'll try to be there all the way till you all go off.. I talked to Ms Chiew today. I had to run to 'catch' her as she was going to the carpark. We had a really long talk.

It feels much better have people who care about me around :) yes. I'm going to sleep in peace tonight:)
ohh.. what a emo guy... haha...

USP

YAY!!! I got into USP!!! wah.. dunno why i got the e-mail so late lor.. my fren got it like 3 wks after the interview... Well i guess they took more time for foreign students or something, which doesn't really matter now.. what does is,

I GOT INTO USP!!!!

wahhhhhh...dun emo leh...

UC1

UC blog post::
Familiar faces...






This is my og mate-Kian . He really looks like my junior...




And below is one of my ogls, Li Xiang. He doesn't really look like Cun Zheng, but ya, it's kinda
close to that look...




This is the picture of nyjcians whos came for the union camp. wah.. took a lot of effort to bring them together lor.. The guy on the extreme left is Desmond, from Nanyang JC's 26th Student council. The girls are from my batch.

UC1

I'll do a quick post here, as i'm supposed to be mugging for my QET this thursday. Union camp was fun! but i'll pic-blog on friday. there's a lot to blog abt. Desmond(NY26thSC) was there!

UC

i'll be off for union camp from tmr till fri night( or maybe sat morning). Lets just hope that i'll get some time to run, yeah?

SBR

I'm still having leg muscle pains from the training. haha.. that shows that i seriously lacked some speed.
Shears Bridge run coming up on 26th August!! Must start training already, if i want to break my previous timing. But i won't be able to train till 19th july leh.. and after NUS starts..???
well, maybe i'll have to be more disciplined and run like i did when i came into nyjc:)

i'mstillthinkingabtu, not emo-ing, but jus thinking onwhattodonext.i'lltrytotalktoub4igooffforcampk?

5th July 07

Today was a busy day: This morning i went to NUS wif pradeep to collect my medical report. then had lunch at the science canteen. I met a lot of ppl that i knew!! haha.. i'll get exited at this kinda thing. I saw the 2 friends, whom i met during the medical check-up, at the central library bus stop. And i saw one of my NY friends too...I was actually planning to go to my driving centre straight away, but it was too early:( So, i popped into AMK library, to get and read some books. Ya.. i've to brush up my english too. It should be getting worse without those GP tutors:(
My driving lesson today: I got to brush up on the common mistakes I make. It's better to correct them at this early stage.I'll be having another lesson tommorrow.~ 15 Km of driving.
After my driving lesson, i went to run @ ny. haha.. I met Mr. Tonny Lim and was talking to him for a while. I wanted to run at high-speed, so that i get more used to it.After warming up for a round, , i ran 3 rounds(5min 3 secs), and another 3 rounds(5min 8 secs). And another round to cool down... Quite tiring, my legs feel very light now. I'll wait for them to recover, i think i need more of this kind of training before i return back to the 10km one.

OUT!!

Driving lesson taday was super fun, but tiring as well. When i used to be a passenger, i thought that driving was fun stuff. haha.. But I now realise how tough it can be. Well, maybe it'll be fun once i manage to get my concepts right. This was my 3rd lesson and we went out of the driving circuits-into the streets. can you believe that?? I was thinking that i'll only be able to get out after atleast 10 lessons or so, since i stll felt that i'ld be a dangerous person on the road. but nope- i didn't have any accidents today- thanks to my instructor, who saved me several times. The worst part was when a bus drivir horned at me from behind- cos i took too long to move:(
I think i've to put in some effort to correct my mistakes. So, i shall acknowledge some( the more common ones) of them here:

When moving off from rest:
1. fails to ensure that the gear is at the 1st gear
2. Takes a long time to get biting point
3. while trying to get my biting point, i tend to accelerate too harshly(cannot hold my acceleraton pedal at the right position)
4. After getting the biting point, i tend to release the clutch too fast; this makes the car jerk forwards.
5. as a result of 4., my engine stalls.:(

Things to remember:
when moving off:
hold pedal A after holding pedal C just B4 biting point, and slowly release pedal C
when changing gear:Reduce the effect of engine brake by pressing A up & C down @ the same time.

Last few notes to self:
do look at the traffic light & be patient with the car-it has been very patient with you.

i drove a total of ~24km today:)

I had my second driving lesson today. Very fun, cos the instructor was quite patient with me. I'm thinking that i need to ride my bicycle more to practice, how odd...
anyway, i forgot to post this pic of gary pulling ben(along with his table).
The table (along with ben) was pulled for several meters b4 this pic was taken...

Pre-camp meeting!!!

Cheer:: """....We WILL Win The WAR THIS TIME...."""
me:"then, next time leh??"

A group Photo, i'm @ RHS we were all given nos to diplay, i'm no 10. Yay! i took the lateral inversion into consideration!

During the games... we stayed till abt 11, i think. It was a long way from lakeside mrt to my home, but i'll have to get used to long journeys

the final game: we were supposed to close our eyes...

This is the first time i didn't have to to forfeit during ice-breaking games.. haha. . So lucky, right? Everyone else was asked to say out other ppl's names at least once lor.. but i wasn't asked even once!! can you believe my luck?? it's true!!

I look forward to the union camp, next week, i think...

And yes, i've completely stopped emo-ing! maybe i've emo-ed

emo-not

Yay! I've stopped emo-ing now. I'll be going for my pre-union camp gathering this evening.
Well, i'm not exactly going to declare that i shall stop trying to make it fine, but i'm just going to say that i'll eventually make it fine.Yah... I know that it just needs some time...

better

I'm feeling much better now:) As expected, being around with ppl kinda gives me a lot more energy.:)
anyway, i'm beginning to think that i'm just being oversensitive about the whole thing. but i'm yet to declare that i shall stop trying to make it fine.
i shall wait for you to contact me:)
sometimes, things aren't so wrong, as they may seem to be...

PASSED

yay. i passed my final theory driving test... First try leh. I'm so impressed with myself:)

And yes... i'm still emo-ing... what a weird combination.

EP1

read it if you can figure out some way to do so.
hey n, I should have blogged this down quite some time ago, but either I was too lazy to, or maybe I thought that it would all just turn out fine. but No, it didn't. i've been emo-ing for like 3 days now. Eeeemmmooooo... it has gotten kinda worse today; think i'm having a fever now. yet, i know that it'll all turn out just fine, when the time comes...to maintain confidentiality, i'm not going to publish the post; just gonna save it as a draft..Zipping it forever.
there's only one I. me. go figure.

I would like to thank Amal for reminding me of this song: (I used to listen to it a long time ago, but it appeals to me...):


When the visions around you
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that surround you
Are secrets and lies
I'll be your strength
I'll give you hope
Keeping your faith when it's gone
The one you should call
Was standing here all along

And I will take
You in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
'Til the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you

I've loved you forever
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never
Will you hurt anymore
I give you my word
I give you my heart (Give you my heart)
This is a battle we've won
And with this vow
Forever has now begun

Just close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Each loving day (Each loving day)
I know this feeling won't go away (No)
'Til the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you

Over and over I fall (Over and over I fall)
When I hear you call
Without you in my life baby
I just wouldn't be living at all

And I will take (I will take you in my arms)
You in my arms
And hold you right where you belong (Right where you belong)
'Til the day my life is through
This I promise you baby

Just close your eyes
Each loving day (Each loving day)
I know this feeling won't go away (No)
Every word I say is true
This I promise you

Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Ooh, I promise you

Today, i had my NUS medical check-up. I met some engineering ppl there and made friend, since i won't have that much time once lessons start. I tried to come back to ny by 2, so that i can help some of my juniors in their physics, but i couldn't:( The queues were quite long. There were queues to get registered, for height & weight thing, x-ray, consultation with the doctor, to check blood pressure, and so on. k la... i should have gone there earlier, like i advised my firiend, who'll be going tmr (fri). Here are some of the numbers that i remember: My height: 178 cm (it's 180, if i have my shoe on:P ) My weight: 63.5kg( Well, not too heavy, for a guy). My heart beat: 61 per minute (haha... i tried to control it as much as i can by relaxing, but ya.. it's a very healthy number. My target is for it to go below 60).

i want to blog, but i dun have time:( i need to slp soon; got medical check up tmr:(

error

listen to this...
i just compiled a c++ code that i wrote on exception handling. It only has 25 lines and guess how many errors came up: 26.


guess the last error that came up:
"... Too many error or warning messages". super legend... really looks like one of friends' type of jokes... haha...

the end

My c-language course is going to end;there's only one more lesson left. I'm so glad:)
My ogl called me up yesterday and we had a pretty interesting conversation. We are going to have a pre-camp og meeting on 1st july!! so exiting, right? and to add to that, we can stay overnight too...
now for other stuff:

Running updates: I'm going to stop doing 10km, for the time being. I'm going to work on my 2.4, to make myself more used to higher speeds. I'll do a 2.4km below 10min before going on to continue on my 10km runs.

Just went for a 10km run... The ny ppl will be having their mid yrs tommorrow. Good Luck to you all!:) I'll see if i have time to come in to help you all for your prelims and A-levels :) :D

I'll be going for the NUS Union Camp.think it's on the 2nd week of july. Wah, time flies so fast...

I ran a 10km today. I had to stop and walk the last ~1km, since i was quite dehydrated-my mouth was quite dry and i started having headaches... But i'm okay now:)

just a randow thought: It'ld be really useful and neat if frienster starts to enable its users to organise thier friends into groups...

wah.. today's evening nyjc session was super packed... still working on some questions... have to do my c-language homework as well:(

I went down to ny on tue, wed & fri... My leg, surprisingly, still has not recovered from the run on sunday(ithink)... I planned to run a 2.4km in school today, but didn't have the time:( Guess i'll have to try run tmr, since i'll not be going for my c-lang lesson. omg, i've been going for my c-lang lesson everyday of this week so far...super exhausting, esp when i'm asked to come up with programs on the spot. I've also been trying to meet up with my old secondary school friend, but that'll be on next week, i think.
i just want to see if i can still do a 2.4 within 10min... And also, my pull-up standard has seriously gone down: i now can only do 3 at a go, have to improve.Also, i managed to differentiate(calculus) expression that i've been trying to differentiate for quite a long time. i'll post the picture later. yup, i guess that's all for now.

i was there to solve problems,
not create them;
maybe i've misunderstood.

it's too late to blog... i'm going to sleep... ZZZZZZZzzZzZzZ

17th june:)

Superb 10km run. There were not anyone on the pavements along my path for me to pace with this time, but my timing was better and i felt that i was running faster too. haha... but i didn't make it below 1h-though i tried to. My timing was 1h and 03 mins, for the 10km. Well, if you just minus off the time wasted away in those traffic lights, it would be 1 hour;but those were really valuable breaks, where i got to catch my breath and stretch. One of the things that surprised me was that there was practically no one at bishan park! Usually it would be filled with people playing soccer, running, cycling, picnicking, exercising, watching the dogs' race and so on... but this time, i only came across abt 7 people, scattered around the 2 bishan parks. Maybe it's because there were those dark clouds, but i somehow knew that it would not rain, and it didn't :). No rain, No sun, But got wind: perfect for running=)

Today's weather is very fine for running - i'm going to try to do a 10km below 1h... Have to hydrate myself first:)

sdfsdflsdkg

wah... still super busy... a lot of house work n stuff... but here are the good news:
1. MY c-lang course is going to over in abt 3 weeks!!! =)
2.I'll be starting my driving practical lessons soon:) can't wait to get my hands on that steering wheel;)
3. My student pass stuff are going to be pretty much settled after today, NUS'll take care of it, after i submit the form:)
that's abt all for now...

Yesterday was another super-tiring day. I had programming lesson in the morning. Then, i came back home to help my mom do some cooking, after which i went to nyjc. There were a lot of 29th there!!! They really filled one whole classroom, i was quite surprised at the turnout. Well, this time, i didn't face any difficult chem questions... haha...I can handle most of the maths and physics one, but only abt 60% of the chem questions. But my summary notes(which i dug up) seem to help me a lot.
Also, this morning, i realised that i've fully recovered from the 10km run last saturday. So, that's about 3.5 days... I should have another run, when i'm free. Tmr, i'll be going to NUS, to enquire about my student pass procedures, after which i'll need to do some driving lesson stuffs. After which (hopefully i've time...) i'll visit nyjc.
YaY!! For the first time in a few months i'll be going to NUS on a weekday!!! Which means that the canteens will be OPEN!!!:):):D

11th june-Tiring day...

What a tiring day.... Today i woke up at 7am, and till now, i've been packed with stuff to do. Laundry, room-cleaning, sweeping and mopping, cooking, doing the dishes... And i had to bring my mom for her sgh appt in the afternoon.Although it was super cheap, the waiting times were quite long.I've pushed today's comp lesson to tmr and i'll be going to nyjc after that=)

good run

I had quite a good run yesterday-I went down, and saw a group of dark clouds over me. So, i had to get it done quick. There was this army person just passing me and i decided to keep to his pace. Well, his pace was a bit too fast and as i was approaching the u-turn mark near upp. thomson road, i noticed that my throat-the part of it that is just above the bottom of my neck was feeling super hot inside. Well, i had this before, when i was trying a 2.4 km at ny. I didn't care too much about it and went on to finish my run. After some thinking, i'm now thinking that it may be becouse of eating too much spicy stuff at my lunch, 3hrs before that run. My timing was 1h13mins56secs. Very bad. I've now realised that my leg's stamina gets worse if i don't keep on running...

I've been quite busy this week- Have been having consultation with my NY Juniors:) wah... 230pm to abt 7 on wednesday and 215 to 10pm on friday.. But it's very fun helping them:)
My C-lang course just started on c++; which means that i'm half way through! I'm going off for a 10km run now.

okay, today, i passed my basic thoery test(driving) and my advanced final theory trial test. So, i booked for my final theory test:) Just finished my c-language homework: fibonacci series in a recursive loop:

#include
main()
{int fibo(int n);
int fib, n;
clrscr();
printf("\n\nFibonacci Series:");
printf("\nEnter the number of term to show");
scanf("%d", &n);
fib=fibo(n);
printf("The number is %d", fib);
getch();
return(0);}
int fibo(int n)
{if(n==1n==2)
{return(1);}
else{return fibo(n-1)+fibo(n-2);}}

It's such a weird hour to blog... i slept in the evening...

Day 1 part 2

There was this Narita express which brought us from the airport to a place called Shinjuku. The train was quite fast at times, making its way through both farms and commertial areas. Then, we had to get another ticket and transfer to a local train. We looked quite lost at the train stations and we had to approach the counter staff everytime we wanted to buy tickets.
At last, we managed to reach our own train station, together with all our luggages(which were miraculously squeezed in to the packed trains).After reaching, we had to make our way to the hotel.

Well, we asked the station staff, who kindly pointed in a particular direction (language barrier;so that's like the best he could do for us). After walking for some time, we got lost and my mom asked this lady who was walking in a hurry to the station. What impressed ma was that although she was in such a hurry, she willingly stopped and gave us directions! So, we got to the hotel, eventually. Most of us were quite tired from all the travelling.
Then, we spent about 5 minutes trying to draw diagrams of rooms(and stick men) in order to enquire more, although we'd already booked our rooms. Well, the rest of the day was simply spent in the room, bathing, brushing our teeth, having our meal and resting. Finally, at about 7, we went out to look around the neighbourhood of the hotel.
It is then i came to realise that it's really hard to live in that area, if you don't know japanese.
Now for pictures!

Me standing along our room's corridor.


Me on my cosy bed. I wish i can sleep on it everyday:)
Cold air comes in from the window and warm air from the aircon(at night).


View of a street from the hotel room. note that they have these zebra linings when there's traffic light.Oh ya... and a lot of them travel around in bicycles. It's really a lot of them.

Radio and switch controls near the bed.

Thank God; The numbers are not in Japanese:)

The high tech toilet bowl

Japan Trip: Day 1, part 1

First day... We went to Changi Airport, after miraculously managing to finish our packing up. Once we reached, we met up with the others and did our check-in. I had to check my our luggage, to see if my mom was trying to sneak in any liquids, gels or blah, blah blah.. Well, it wasn't long before i manages to spot peanut butter bottle and moisturisers. We had to check in those which could carry more than 100ml. Well, rather than this 'liquidy' restriction, which is now practiced in many international airports, i think it's better to check every single 'liquidy' stuff that is not checked in . It should cost around the same, since there'll be no need to distribute free zip-lock bags and hire staff to do that.

Then, after boarding, i was quite disappointed that our plane doesn't have that personal entertainment system that i got to enjoy on my New Zealand trip (On Singapore Airlines), back when i was in Secondary 4. Till this day, it has been the best 'flying' experience that I've ever had!! They even had ice cream on board, together with tasty cheese biscuits to go with the latest movies, albums, games, MATH questions to solve... Seriously, i can't ask for more... Although i really enjoyed my time New Zealand, i do agree with a lot of my travel mates who commented that the SIA Boeing aircraft offered the best staying experience in the entire journey.

Well, back to my japan trip: All i have to say is that i pretty much enjoyed their radio channels, which the airlines i traveled to India in didn't offer. Well, after about 2 hrs, we landed in Bangkok.

I remember studying about some airport in Thailand and the competition it poses to the Changi Airport, but this time, i got to see for myself how good it was. It was really big with wonderful architechture, a lot of shops and so on. Well, in the 2 hrs that we had in the transit, we spent about an hour just strolling to our depature place, taking photos along that way and so on... here are some: There were a lot of people taking photo at this spot...

Then, after a longer trip (about 6hrs) and some problems on the meals we ordered( cos our travels agency didn't do their job well) we arrived at the tokyo airport. As ususal, there was this long immigration queue to get through. Collecting our baggage was okay, the trolleys were not really available nearby, but the toilets were nice, though.

Next, we decided to take a train to our destination( we had a choice of limousine bus too), since we felt that it was a must to experience those speedy trains in japan.

---To be continued

I came back from Japan yesterday night, and slept till 3p.m today, since i didn't get much sleep there, and also since i had to rush to SGH after coming here yesterday night.My mom had a minor wrist fracture in Japan...But apart from that, it was a very nice trip, the four days there. I shall describe the trip in detail later. Now i have several things to attend to : My C-lang lesson tmr, Driving test n voluntary duties, unpacking, organising...

I'll be taking off this evening to Japan, but i still have quite a lot of packing to do:(

After cheking the relavant website, i found out that the aeroplanes that i'll be taking probably won't have the in-flight entertainment system. So, i'll have to entertain myself for the 10 x 2 hours:(

About 3 days ago, i saw a lot of smoke coming out from a house nearby, so, here::

Okay, i've quite a lot of pictures to post, and i'll have to post them later on, when i come back from Japan.

I can't believe it!! It has been one whole year since i stepped down from council!!! Really, it seems like i've stepped down a month or two ago...
I can still remember the feeling of that blazer and white shirt, on me...
Well, Let's just hope that the side gate will be open tomorrow:)

Today was a quite a nice day...
To start with, yesterday night, i got bored of my bed and decided to sleep on the floor. Yup, it was quite a different experiance and i had a very good sleep.The only thing was that i couldn't really turn around, since the space was only like a meter wide:( But still, i may try it again, maybe next week...
later on, i went to nyjc to collect my SGC and CCA Records(Thanks to my friend who reminded me:)) Then, came the shiok part: Initially, i was called by my friend to help him in math olympiad trining, but when i went there, there were like 3 of them!!Whoa.. luckily it was not really a question-asking session... It was more like i told them (nearly all) the stuff the stuff that i know,. that would be of help to them in SMO. Word hard guys!! Several more days ahead!!
Well, i was just thinking that it is rare to see people spending so much time for SMO training. Hope they bring back something, for this is their last chance to participate.(They'll be too old next year, i think).

i've a new external harddrive!!!
100GB, should be quite useful for the coming 4yrs at NUS...
So, here are the results of my experiments on it:

EXPT1(through the port near CD-drive):
time it took to trasfer 6.99GB worth of files: 10mins 2 secs
so,
Average time it takes to transfer 1 GB: 85.7 Secs
Average speed:11.6MB/sec
Time it took to delete this data:~5 Secs

Yup; it's certainly good that blogger automatically saves it's posts, just like in gmail, where the mail gets saves autometically once in a while:

This autosave feature means that you have a safety net for the cases when you're
working on a new post and the power goes out, or your browser crashes, or some
other calamity occurs.

Today was nyjc's college day, and i got my 4-distinction award! But i had to rush down to NUS for the ECE @ NUS orientation. So, i'll have to collect my sgc on monday.
And i finally met up with my classmates!!yay!haha.. Although only some. I guess i'll have to start the engineering journey in NUS alone, since the guys are like 3 or 4 yrs older than me, and no one's from nyjc:( But will have some ny ppl joining NUS this yr, and i'll have to really make a lot of friends during orientation, like i did in nyjc's Zion. Woah..that seems like so long ago o.0

i getting more and more stressed now leh, my C-lang getting more complicated. It's like although the computer recognises some of ur mistakes, there are some that it doesn't recognise
:( And i'm really having a hard trying trying to figure those out.

:)

Wah...i think i need to buck up already.. I realise that i've been slacking more and more during these days. I realise that the more i slack, the more tired and sleepy i become. i really won't be ready for my uni studies with this kind of mindset. I've to start warming up already...

I went running today... the usual Bishan park route. 10Km long. Just about 4 mins after i started out, it started raining and so, i had to take shelter in below a flyover on the way. I was later joined by a few motorists. We waited for about 40mins for the rain to subside. And i continued my journey to the end of Bishan Park.
At the end, i decided to drop by a forest trail that i noticed when i went cycling a few days ago. It was very scenic and calming. Try it!! There is this part where the trail curves along the end of the lower pierce reservoir. It just felt like i was walking on water! But i think this only happens just after rain...
Overall, i had a good time despite the rain. But my timing was quite bad-1h06mins:( But i guess it's okay for someone who hasn't been running for the past 5 months.

okay... i shall blog later, i think there's something wrong with my comp. :(

Hi everyone...
I've just got myself a long-term social visit pass till 24th August. So, that's one big thing off my mind. The process of getting the student pass should be smooth in the first week of august:)

Heard that nyband & CO got Gold for SYF this yr Congrats!! :)

And i had to do another driving trial test today, so that i can take my basic theory test when i come back from Japan. The Japan trip is pretty much confirmed now: I'll be departing on 26th may and i'll be back at Singapore on 30th May. Yup. that's the plan for now.

And here's a song that i heard on the radio, it's quite soothing to hear:

My blogging frequency has decreased of late.... haha,
It's just that life now is quite normal la, boring. Well, what can i say here...
My mom promised to get me a laptop if i get into EE course in NUS. Now that i got in, it's time to redeem the offer:)
I can only apply for student's pass on august, so i'll have to keep on extending my social visit pass till then:(
I went down to get my NYAA bronze award today-I was thinking that it'ld be a mini-council reunion, but turned out to be a council=>mini-solico reunion...;) The certs will be sent to our college, but we've got the badges now. I'm thinking of doing the silver NYAA in NUS, but it'll look very weird if i'm the only one from a UNI getting silver, standing among those kids. I'll have to process the thought first....

I just got an offer from NUS for their electrical engineering UG course:) And i just accepted it:)

I shall just update on the main events-I went for USP interview on saturday, Harris'ld have had his turn today. Well, it was quite relaxed, i didn't experience any inconvinience even though i'd forgotten to bring my interview letter. I shall keep my fingers crossed(X) till the results arrive.

Next, i really really hope i can remember to attend the NYAA prize presentation ceremony this coming tuesday. I was just thinking of asking ms chiew or mr tonny lim, "What happened to our nyaa??", when i received the sms:)

Third, my mom and i are planning to visit Japan. Here's the rough plan: We'll be off on 23rd afternoon and arrive in Kansai international aitport, stay at Kobe for 24th and 25th, get ourselves to Tokyo, stay there for a few more days and come back.

Lastly, my retainer; Well, let's just say that i've been devoting myself to it more than i ever felt like: Every night, and of course i wake up with all of my poor teeth aching:( Hold on to your gums!! It's only going to be for about four months!!:(
