Quite some time since I last had an entry. Today...such a long day. And such a tiring 1 too. Let's start with yesterday. Worked on project from morning until afternoon at Orchard. Nice place to have a project meeting huh? Then went down to Jurong East Library to check up some info for another project. Couldn't find the newspaper clipping that I hoped to look for, but had quite an experience using the microfilm machine to read newspaper articles from 1983.
Went to find my friends after that to watch a basketball match. The team we supported lost. Then had dinner at a coffeeshop nearby and watched soccer. Man U only managed to draw Blackburn 1-1. But it was really an exciting match. On a good day Man U would have won 10-1, with the no. of chances they created.
Today...actually I'd rather not talk about anything that has happened today. But no point bottling up in my chest too. Everytime I'll get reprimanded by everybody when I do that. So here it goes...
Woke up quite late in the morning. Slacked all the way until 5pm, when I went for a haircut. Before that was playing game quite abit. Wanted to start on my CA but the procrastinator in me, well, procrastinated everything until about 1 hour ago? So I've got it started. 1/3 done with it I hope.
After the haircut went to Orchard. Was chatting with her on sms during her lunch break, and got to know where she worked and what time she would knock off. So there I went, waiting outside Isetan Scotts. Was early actually, but never spotted her coming out of the building until I sms-ed her asking if she had finished work. By that time she was on her way to take the train.
So I rushed to Orchard MRT, but well, she has already taken a train. All hopes seem to have gone. But she had taken the wrong train and alighted at Toa Payoh, which was 3 stops from Orchard. She wasn't clear on whether she had switched trains or if she was still waiting for the train at Toa Payoh. So the next train came, and I kept hesitating and hoping she wasn't on that train. But so sad...she was on it. So I boarded the next train, hoping somehow the train arriving at Raffles going towards Boon Lay would delayed, because by the time I boarded the train at Orchard she was at City Hall. If everything was delayed I could have bumped into her at Raffles...
But fate is juz so cruel. When I reached Raffles, I saw the train opposite, which was heading to Boon Lay, leaving. Haiz~...am I juz plain unlucky? Perhaps I should have boarded the train to Raffles earlier, so even if she wasn't on it I could have waited at Raffles. Really feel like killing myself for being so dumb. Or perhaps if I had mattered, she would probably have waited at Raffles for me...
Maybe really no fate ba. Sometimes, it's really hurting...that it seems like she's avoiding me when I'm the 1 who's "accused" of avoiding her. I really can't understand sometimes. Haiz~...does every woman's mind work like that?
If I could have juz one thing,
You'll be my queen, and me the king.
It will all be a perfect dream.
"Boom!" and I'm awoken by a lightning beam.
Darkness filled my opened eyes,
It's back to this world that's full of lies.
Staring blankly at the ceiling wall,
My life has juz taken another fall.
Life was entering a brand new start,
When I found someone to give my heart.
I never doubted you were meant for me,
But you doubted that we weren't meant to be.
Days and months had passed me by,
Every moment I wondered if you had another guy.
If you do please tell me so.
Give my blessings and I will go.
Tears may fill my eyes all night,
I may never be your guiding light.
If there was a song to tell you how I feel,
It's "Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You".
Days have been winding, nights have been long.
Nothing seems right, now that you are gone.
We may have never been together.
Though I wish we could be forever.
Did I not make things right?
Or are you juz being too uptight?
Where did it all go wrong?
When it could all have been strong.
I really need from you some trust,
That I'm not into you for lust.
All I want is a girl in my life.
To be with her till the end of time.
I don't know why but it's gotta be you,
I can't really explain how my heart feels.
Though it seems that I never care,
Saying I don't juz ain't fair.
If you ever get to see these words,
I hope you know that it really hurts.
It's never easy to see you smile,
When our hearts are apart by a thousand miles.
This entry's gonna be abit different from the previous ones. Why you ask? Cos someone read my previous entry and that someone wanted to read a story that has a happy ending. Hehe...so here it goes...
This is a story that happened during World War II. It was 1942, and the battle for supremacy in Europe was juz about to begin. Germany had juz marched into Poland, despite Hitler's promise not to start a war. But who would had ever believed Hitler's words? Well, apparently the fools from Great Britain and the rest of Europe did. War was knocking at Europe's door, and the recruitment drive for more soldiers to defend for each's sovereignty began...
Young James Dobson was 19 then. Since quitting studies 2 years ago, he had been scrimping and saving all the earnings he made from the odd jobs he had done. Those were 2 tough years. Jobs don't come easy, and even if they do, most were hard labour jobs paying meagre wages. But James never once complaint. Only with these savings will he be able to fulfill his dream: to marry his childhood sweetheart, Florence Queetin.
Florence's dad had never approved of her daughter's relationship with James. Afterall, how is a brat with hardly any education going to support his only daughter for the rest of her life? But James was determined to prove his worth. With his savings, James somehow managed to convince Florence's dad to give him a chance. But juz 2 weeks before they were to walk down the aisle...
James received a letter from the British Army. He was expected to report immediately, to defend his country against the tyranny of Hitler. Britain can't afford 1 fit man to not serve and defend the colonial state. On the day James left, he slipped the ring onto Florence's finger. It was meant for their walk down the aisle in 2 weeks, but James feared, and knew, that if he didn't do it there and then, he might never ever have another chance to do so. And so, James left, leaving behind a tearful Florence praying for his safe, though unlikely, return. "Believe me. I will come back for you," said James.
Throughout the war period, James tried his best to keep Florence constantly updated about his well-being. And Florence would eagerly anticipate each update, which comes roughly every 2 months. 1943 and all was still well. James was still safe and alive, albeit suffering a few cuts from shrapnel flying around the place. But throughout 1944...
It's been a year, and Florence had no word from James. Every night she cried and prayed, fearing the worse might befall on her beloved. All she wished for was to see James again, alive and well. Even if it meant sacrificing her own life for God. She desperately tried every and any way of trying to find out news about James, but to no avail. Finally, on December 24th...
It was a lonely Christmas Eve for Florence. Her dad had passed away a few months back, leaving her all alone for Christmas for the 1st time in her life. 10 minutes before the clock struck midnight, someone knocked on the door. It was a man in uniform, holding on to a small little box. "We found this left on the jungle in Normandy. That was all we could find. I'm so sorry."
Florence opened the box slowly. In it was a chain with James' nametag...and his wedding ring. She had feared the worse, and it was now finally presented to her. Nothing could ever console her. And her neighbours gave their sympathies to a young woman who became widowed at such a tender age of 21.
1946 and World War II had ended for a year. Florence, however, was still mourning for her husband. Men had asked for her hand for marriage, but she never once harboured thoughts of remarrying. In her heart she was still hoping that miracles would happen and her husband would come back. Little did she know that, in a world so harsh, miracles do happen...
December 24th 1946. It's been 2 years since Florence heard of any news about James. Juz an hour more, and she was about to spend Christmas alone for the 3rd time. 10 minutes before midnight, there was knocking on the door. Again. This time, she was shocked. Absolutely speechless. It was James at the door! Florence couldn't believe her eyes, and both hugged tightly to each other for a good 10 minutes, sobbing endlessly.
James had lost his way after his troops landed in Normandy. Hoping to alert someone who could find him, he dropped his nametag. Thankfully for him, not only did he manage to stay away from the gunfire, he was found by an elderly couple who took him refuge. When the war was over, he finally had the chance to cross the Channel and find his way back to Florence. To the woman he promised he will come back to...
So there you go. The story's ended. Hmm don't know how good it is, but hope it didn't bore anyone to tears. Haha till the next time~ *sMiLeZ*
Quite a slow day. Perhaps it's the Monday blues. Skipped my 2nd class cos wanted to go to BBDC and take my pratical for Final Theory, but in the end went to Ginza play LAN game with my friends. Sad case hor? At least I haven't been skipping alot of classes this semester.
Something happened in school today that reminded me of the movie, Turn Left Turn Right. Remember the show that starred Takeshi Kaneshiro and Gigi Leung? Yeah...that show. We were given a break during the 1st lesson. The 2 of us exited the classroom to go washroom, her by the back door and me by the front. Seems to be so simultaneous. Then walked in opposite directions, and only realised it when I turned around to check if my friend had followed me. Haha...also don't really know what to say about it. Juz...haha...maybe it's juz the signal to say that perhaps...perhaps it's juz not meant to be...haha. Hmm suddenly juz feel like telling a story...
Many, many years ago...before you and I were born, there lived a man, A. From young, he wasn't the most popular kid in his family. His grandparents, his relatives, all liked his older brother more. His older brother was a hardworking and sensible boy. Though he wasn't most liked by his relatives, A's parents doted on him as much as his brother, even showing more trust in A by giving him more freedom. A grew up to be as sensible as his brother, though he was more temperamental, more playful, more carefree.
A had his first girlfriend when he was only 13. An age when a boy is still, a boy. And not wise enough to manage a relationship of this kind. It was therefore not a huge surprise that the relationship didn't really work out. On and off, A had crushes on this girl and that girl, but never seriously thought that he could actually settle on a stable relationship with anyone of them. A, at this time, still do not fully understand what it is really like to love someone. Until...
That fateful day. The 1st day A, now 17, went to a new school. Sitting in a circle, A and his new classmates were to introduce themselves one by one. All this while, A was feeling bored, and strange. Because he was not exactly a very social person and quite shy. Until this girl, B, introduced herself. Something magical juz happened. It seems like, out of nowhere, something struck A. Perhaps it was her smile. Maybe it was her sweet voice. For the 1st time, it seemed like A finally fell in love...in love with someone whom he haven't even know for a day.
Days gone by, and A started to fall even deeper. He juz couldn't be moved by another girl. Though they didn't talk much in school or go out together often, they still managed to communicate often through other means. A told B how he felt, but he never really got a response from B. Perhaps B was juz unsure...unsure of whether this guy is for real. But in A's heart, he never had doubted how he felt...
3 years gone, and it's time for graduation. A and B went separate ways, A to serve the army, and B got a job. A gave his blessings to B, hoping that she'll find the right guy. B gave the same blessing too. 10 years...15 years...time juz flew by. During this time, both of them hardly kept in contact. In A's heart, he still loved B, and no less than before. B, too, was hoping that 1 day, A would pluck up his courage and move her with his sincerity. Fate wasn't too kind though...
1 fine day, A was out on training. While climbing the high ropes, A's wallet dropped and he reached out 1 hand to try grab it. He managed to get a hand onto his wallet, but slipped and fell, hitting his head hard on the ground. Though knocked out cold, he held on to his wallet firmly, and all the way while he was rushed to the hospital. No one knew why that was so. B heard about what happened to A, and went to the hospital. Only then did everyone realise why A held on to his wallet so tightly. In his wallet was B's photo. B finally realised that all these years, A's feelings never once changed. But it was too late, as A sadly didn't survive the fall...
Finally end of the story. Come to think of it...it's kinda lame. Haha...but juz felt like writing something, though my mind's abit blank. Time to end off this entry. Cyaz~...
Such a boring Sunday. Nothing much happened the whole day. Or rather, I slacked the whole day. Haha juz watched alot of tv and played game. Mostly watched the Olympics. Singapore, once again, couldn't win a medal. Not that surprised actually. In fact, I'll be more surprised if they had won. But it's ok. There's always a nice time, and besides, I believe they tried their best.
Yesterday quite slack too. Morning went to play bball and now my muscles are still aching. Too long never exercise le. The whole afternoon was pretty slack. Sat down at the coffeeshop and chatted for a few hours before going to jl's house to slack yet again. Watch "The Butterfly Effect" at his house. Not such a bad show, though initially it's really hard to fathom what the whole show is about. His chincilla (long mao) quite cute. Hmm but I've seen alot of cuter ones. =P
Haven't got much to say actually, though it was 2 days since I last updated my blog. Didn't talk much to her these 2 days. Perhaps she's too busy working ba. Speaking of working, I haven't give my work schedule for next week. Haha perhaps the next weekend going to slack it away yet again. But shall get back to work soon ba. It's always better to have some money. And I need to book my driving lessons soon.
Guess that's all I have to say ba. Take care of yourselves guys. *sMiLeZ*
Been raining quite abit the whole dae, so decided to put this title. If you don't know, it's actually a song by Indecent Obsession (who?). Well...they are actually the same guys who sang "Fixing a Broken Heart". So now you know right? Haha...it's a nice song lah. Got a chance go take a listen to it. =)
Woke up early to go to school for project discussion today. In the end only 3 of us, including yours truly, were present among 6. But well, I'm not too surprised. I bet the other 3 were barely listening when I mentioned about the project meeting. What to do? Not that I don't trust the rest of them. I know them too well.
Lessons today kinda stressful, especially the 2nd lesson where we had to make presentations about our game ideas. It was a long time before my turn. 2 hours in fact. And as I expected, my first 2 ideas were rejected in my face, though there's hope for the 3rd idea. By the time we finished, it was almost 7pm.
After school, saw my classmate home. Dropped her at her bus stop only actually, but asked her to msg me when she got home so that I know she's well. She had fainted in the afternoon in front of the keyboard while doing her work. Scary sia. If she was going to faint again it would be terrible. So better to play safe and see her home. At least she looked much better after that.
Been chatting with her quite abit today. In case you're wondering, I did tell her that I'm seeing our classmate home. And if anyone wonders if she'll be jealous...hmm I would put it this way: if she EVER was then I'll be very glad. Haha...get what I mean? =P
Going to watch my Windstruck vcd le. Yes, I finally got it. Hehe watching it now cos lending it to a friend tml. Which means waking up early for bball tml. Cyaz peepz~ =)
P/S: This msg for SJ...get well soon wor~ *sMiLeZ*
This morning started my 1st driving pratical lesson. The initial 30 minutes or so was more about theory. Sort of like introducing the different parts of the car, how to operate it and such. After that got my 1st taste of driving. It was quite fun, but at the same time nervousness sunk in too. Afterall, it's my 1st time behind the wheel, so naturally felt nervous. Didn't do that bad a job, though there are areas that can be improved alot, such as stepping the clutch and gear shifting.
After the lesson went to Orchard to get some project stuff from my classmate. On the way there I felt alseep on the train, and almost missed my stop. Good thing I managed to wake up at the last minute. Feeling kinda tired the whole day. Maybe it's the late night, or more probably, it's the waking early part. At least I only had 1 lesson today, though it was 3 hours. After that, came home to take a short nap before doing my work.
Juz now checked mail and received a shock. Seems like the lecturer decided to change some of the components for the presentation tml. Honestly, I only heard him saying he wanted 3 animal attributes, 1 game idea and 1 preloader for the name. Now need 3 game ideas and 3 preloaders. Haiz~...more work to do...
Guess it's time to get back to work. Hopefully can finish it earlier, so that I can relax a little. Hmm didn't see her around in school today or receive a msg frm her. Maybe later juz send a gd night msg ba. Cyaz~ *sMiLeZ*
Juz came back from Sentosa, so can't really resist but to write another entry. Went to the musical fountain juz now. It's been a really long time since I last went there. Perhaps almost 10 years? Didn't really go there whenever I went to Sentosa the last few times round. Went with my colleagues, so actually it wasn't really that special. But the display was really spectecular. So much difference from the last time I've seen it. Which is, well, of cos, very much understandable cos 10 years is a very long time in terms of technology advancement. The show lasted around 30 minutes. In the end I guess everyone wished that it would go on for awhile longer. But heard that the weekend shows are longer, around an hour in length. So hopefully I'll be able to find a weekend to go watch it again. And if wishes could come true, I'll watch it with her? =)
Chatted with her awhile on sms on my way back home. Said that she had some family problems and juz cried her heart out, but didn't elaborate further. Haha...feeling kinda useless again cos it seems I can't be of any help. Haiz...but it's alright ba. Gotta used to that kind of feeling. And accepting it as a fact too? Haha...how weird the mind can work sometimes huh?
Hmm Ronald Susilo lost his quarter-final match juz now. And lost quite badly too. It's really a pity, considering that he beat the world no. 1 in his 1st match and lost to the world no. 20 Thai player in the quarters. He's the world no. 9, btw. Perhaps 2 matches in 2 days has really taken its toll. But it's alright. We shld still be proud of him cos I'm sure he tried his very best. Li Jia Wei is playing her match now. Leading 2 sets to nil. Hopefully she will get a medal for us. Let's hope ba. Time to rest. Cyaz~ =)
Hmm this must be 1 of the earliest entry I've written. 3:20pm on a Wednesday afternoon. Indeed quite early. Got back from school quite awhile ago and did some work for my project before writing this blog. Have lots of things to do actually, but it's ok lah...try to take them 1 at a time. Should be able to finish everything before any deadlines if my time management doesn't go wrong.
It's been a very slow Wednesday. Nothing much happened in school. Went early to discuss a project, but the discussion was really short. Only about 15 minutes? After that slacked for like almost an hour and a half before going for my only lesson of the day, a 1 hour lecture. Kinda lucky that there's only 1 lesson, cos I'm still feeling abit tired. During that slacking time, sat with my group mates in the food court at a table next to hers. Also never talk at all. Wonder why there's conservation with everyone else apart from her. Pathetic huh?
After school slacked an hour more in school. Juz lazing around, ate lunch, look around...doing all the stuff people do whenever they're almost bored to tears. After that went to the Singapore Pools outlet near my house to claim my winnings, and also place a 4D bet. Bought her birthdate...2905...$1 big $1 small. Don't expect to win though. Juz thought of buying for fun ba.
Hmm looks like I'm going to be late soon. Meeting my classmate before going to Sentosa to meet our colleagues at the chalet. Won't be staying too long there, perhaps until 9:30pm the latest. Gotta come back and so some more work. Tml morning will start on my 1st driving lesson le. Wish me luck yah? Haha till the next time...take care~ =)
A tiring Tuesday. This morning went straight to school from Sentosa, where I had my staff chalet. Couldn't really get any sleep the whole night though I was lying in bed for almost the whole night. The chalet was pretty ok. Alot of things to eat, quite a bit of fun too. Celebrated 1 of my managers birthday though it was long over. Was supposed to celebrate last week but then the "cake bearer" slipped and fell while carrying the cake. Can't really blame her. The conditions of the restuarant can be described as pathetic? Floor very slippery so it's hard not to fall.
School was kinda slack. For me at least, cos I could hardly focus on anything. Really very sleepy but surprisingly didn't fall asleep during class. Did nothing much also. The tutorial discussion was kinda short. So was the project discussion. Juz set out things for my group members to do so that we will have something to discuss when we meet up on Friday. Anywayz, she asked me during class if I wanted a tix to the Samsung Skydiving Event or whatever it is called. Guess can tell whether I took it anot ba...
Went home straight after school to take a short nap before going to BBDC for my Final Theory lessons. Good thing I went home to take a short rest, if not going for the lessons would be a waste of time and money. The 1st lesson was a little boring. Partly due to the instructor, who was abit soft, so can hardly hear him from the back. But the 2nd lesson was much better. The instructor was very humourous. Even know a few Chinese idioms and Hokkien phrases, though he is Malay. Guess everyone was pretty thankful that he managed to crack everybody up.
Guess tonight will be an early night. Have to reach school by 9am tml for project discussion. Good thing only got a 1-hour lecture. Shouldn't be too hard to get through. Take care peepz~ =)
Haha another late entry. Juz got back from my friend's house. Watched Ronaldo Susilo win his 1st round match against Lin Dan, the world No. 1. Quite a good match. It was certainly a great performance from him. Hope he can carry on from there and go all the way. =)
Quite a long day. Went to IMM in the afternoon to buy some stingray for my staff chalet. Then took cab down to the restuarant to settle the things for the chalet tml. Helped to marinate the stingray too. Think going to be real tired these few days sia. Tml school from 9 to 5 then after that straight away go chalet. Going to stay overnight there too. Hopefully can get throught the fatigue for these few days.
After that went to City Hall to meet jl and Ken to watch the fireworks at Esplanade. It was such a spectecular display. Really a fantastic sight. Wished I had watched it with her, but then too bad. Fireworks...always reminds me of the jigsaw I made her for her bdae. Mickey and Minnie sitting by a riverside, watching fireworks. Got a msg from her after that, asking me whether wanna go a Samsung Skydiving display or whatever. Initially thought she asked me go with her. In the end is she can't go so wanted to give me the tix. Haiz...kinda spoil the evening. Then went to Suntec to meet another friend, and wanted to get the Windstruck vcd. But it was SOLD OUT. Diaoz~...really very unlucky.
Oh yeah...SJ and PS common test hor? Haha work hard wor~...hope the 2 of you get good results. Don't think will be updating my blog for a few days. Try my best ba. Till the next time =)
Woohoo~...what a time to write a blog. Haha it's 3:13am now? Think this is the latest, or rather, the earliest time of the day when I'm writing a blog. Hmm juz got home from my friend's house watching soccer. Heez not too bad today wagered $5 each on 2 matches and won 1. Total earnings $37. Not a bad bonus huh? Haha...my friend still said my bets were ambitious. Haiya ren ying meng xiang er wei da mah...right? Lolx =PpPp
Hmm Saturday...quite a normal Saturday for me. Went to work in the morning and was slightly late. No thanks to the stupid train. When I reached Raffles Place I had to wait 7 MINUTES for the train to arrive. And it's like only 1 stop away from the terminal? Someone please give SMRT a smack on their foreheads. Can't understand why I have to pay so much for public transport when it gets me late for work.
Work was pretty ok. Slightly busy but it was quite manageable. Even found time to slack. Oh yeah...1 of the stoves caught fire in the afternoon. Haha 1st time I saw a stove caught fire, though they told me that it happened quite a few times before, juz that I wasn't on shift during those times it happened. Kinda exciting actually. Wahahaha but it's not a good thing lah. The manager solved the whole situation very quickly.
After work went to Yew Tee meet my friends. They playing bball so I juz thought that I go there and slack awhile ba. Later came back to Boon Lay and had dinner at the revamped hawker centre. Finally opened after 2 months of delay. Very crowded, then couldn't recognise most of the stalls cos their zao pai all change le. And damn...shifting into the revamped premise gave the hawkers the "excuse" to all increase the prices of their food. SianzZzZ~...
Next week gonna have my staff chalet le. But it's going to clash with my driving lessons. Think have to compromise abit ba. And still got so many projects to do~!~! Haiz...the workload seems endless at times. But never mind...when the boat reaches the bridge head it will auto go straight. Lolx nice translation hor? Gonna rest now to conserve energy for the week ahead. Take care peepz! *sMiLeZ*
5 more minutes and it's a Saturday. Which means 10 more hours before I go to work. Haha...nice calculation huh? Today nothing much happened. Skipped my 12pm class but went for my 3pm class, which lasted until 6pm. Then went to PS to slack for awhile with my friends and then played an hour of LAN game before coming home. That sums up my day? =)
Hmm didn't wanna talk so much about my day. Oh yeah I read ur comment, SJ. Haha not a bad idea huh? Anywayz the old handphone which I lent a friend...you know that old Samsung phone. Juz now after school my friend called and said she accidentally deleted all the messages in my inbox. Haiz~...also don't know what to say or do. On 1 hand ought to be really mad at her, but at least she called and told me immediately. Perhaps it's really fate? Now all the messages that are left are all in my other phone. Actually when I got another new phone on Tuesday I wanted to lend her that phone and return the old 1, since the old 1 is harder to use anywayz. But kept forgetting. Guess in the end it's meant to be? Haha now u don't need to help me le. How ironic huh?
To think that I kept that phone all along juz for the messages. Hmm now with them gone that phone seems kinda meaningless le. But I guess it's ok lah, since I have been keeping it all the time. Anywayz long time never see u online le. PS also. Haha think u 2 should be very busy with tests? Work hard wor~...last year le. Must strive hard for good results and get into good JCs. Cyaz peepz and take care~ *sMiLeZ*
So much seem to happen, seem to have so much to say. It seems to be a so-much-seem-to day. Anywayz juz to briefly summarise my day...morning went to BBDC to enrol and book lessons for driving. Spend a total of $210 and very likely to spend more soon. Then had to rush home to get something for classmate. At JE bumped into Cheng En and had a little chat. Managed to get back to school in time for my lessons. After lessons then went straight back to BBDC again for 2 basic theory lessons. Actually don't know why I had to attend the lessons since I've passed my BT but at least the instructors weren't too boring, so it was quite alright.
Halfway into the 1st lesson received a msg from her. Said that if possible hoped that I wouldn't continue keeping those sms that I stored in my phone. Felt weird and uncomfortable when other people read them when I lent them my phone. Told me she has been hearing people telling her about the sms since year 1. Haiz~...actually I don't really know what to say, what to do, or what to feel. Supposedly if someone took a look at my inbox it's more of intruding my privacy instead of hers? Isn't it a right of mine to decide what I wanna store in my phone?
Actually...I really don't know. Those sms...I won't say they are the most precious things I'll ever possess, but perhaps they are 1 of the most sentimental? At least whenever I'm down I have something from the past to look back at and smile? I really don't know...I'm really lost. Tell me what to do? Perhaps it's like what the song I'm listening to now indicates? End of the road? It's juz so hard...so tiring to know that tml I'll have to carry a smile to school, though it seems I can hardly manage...
Been listening to Ou De Yang's Xiu Xiu Xiu today. Think listened to it for more than 5 times. How it seems to reflect what's inside of me. How it seems I feel the need to slip away...to somewhere far, far away...
Haha I forgot to mention this on the entry I posted juz now. After the mosque trip we went to shop around at Bugis Junction for awhile. Bought Ou De Yang's CD! Haha really like the song Xiu Xiu Xiu...very sad song~ *sNiFFz*...Then I saw the Windstruck VCD too. Wah I wanna buy it soon sia. I'm going to save up for it. It contains the music video for the movie too. Remembered the song was pretty nice. And I think my sis have the ringtone too. Going to ask her to d/l for me into my new phone. Hehe that's all lah. Cyaz~ =)
Hmm today went school earlier at around 9am though my lecture started only at 11am. Went early to discuss project, but only discussed for about 45 minutes and we're almost done. Then we remained at the bench and had my lunch with 2 of my female classmates. Talked alot of crap before the lecture started. Things like which celebritiy is pretty, handsome, poor attitude, nice person blah blah. Lolx very crappy hor? Then they asked me why I seemed to talk so little to her in school, and that I have chance and should work on it. Haha...think I've been hearing that for like a year? =)
After school I went to find 2 of my classmates and some other people from the other course at Bugis. They were studying a module called Understanding Cross Cultural Diversity and had to choose a religion other than their own to do research on. I was supposed to have that module lor. It was in my original elective combi but my combi was rejected so had to give up that module. It's such an interesting module!! I met them at 1 of the eating houses selling Malay food and had mutton briyani. Very nice~! Then went with them to the Masjid Sultan Mosque. It was quite an eye-opener actually. First time visited a mosque, and actually learnt alot about Islam.
After that went to Lot 1 to meet the Prudential agent. Before that me and my 2 friends visited the library and borrowed books. I borrowed a book titled Over the Line: North Korea's Negotiating Tactics. It's on how North Korea used various tactics to gain favourable advantages to them on negotiating tables with various countries over the last 50 years. Quite an interesting book. Then met the Prudential agent to sign the savings plan contract. Every month I'm due to save $80. Should be manageable ba.
Haha so today has been quite a long, though eventful day. Feeling a little tired (cos woke up at 6:30am to sms her...see if she had woke up for her lecture anot) but at least I enjoyed my day. Tml morning go book driving lessons le. So exciting! Hehe till the next time~ *sMiLeZ*
Haha...as the title suggests today was really slack for me. Didin't go for class cos didn't wake up in time for it. But I still went to school though to meet my friends. Was supposed to have a project discussion 1st but it was cancelled so I went to play LAN game with my friends. Played for about 2 1/2 hours I think before I went to West Mall to meet another friend. Wanted to change my plan and get a new handphone at the same time. The reason I have to meet him is because my subscription is under his name, so thought of changing the ownership to my name since I'm of enough age now.
Hmm bought a Nokia 3120. Cost $68. Quite okay for a colour handphone with no special functions? Haha anywayz it's only a back-up phone and 1 that I will be using during NS so I don't need an especially good phone. Juz 1 that can be used should be fine to me. Changed my plan too. Still using Singtel but using a different plan now. So from tml onwards I have free incoming calls all day and 500 SMS. Also got 100 free outgoing calls though the Caller ID now is chargeable at $5. So......got anything juz call me lah. Lolx~ =P
Hmm tml's going to be quite a long day. Meeting the Prudential agent at 6pm. Most probably going to take up the savings plan. Hopefully before that can do some project discussion. Need to get some work done. Till the next time~ =)
It's National Day~! Actually only got 45 minutes left before it ends. Haha but it's ok lah, still got time mah. Juz came back from watching the parade. Went with my father, sis and her boyfriend but met my classmate and his girlfriend after the parade for dinner.
Talking about the parade...this year must be the best I've seen for as long as remember. The pre-parade was pretty alright. More or less the same from the past which I watched. The parade this year wasn't too bad. The standard of all the contingents, including the supporting contingents, were all very good. And the performance after the parade this year was actually 1 of the few that kept me interested throughout. Usually, I'm only interested in the parade and the fireworks. Ahh...the mere mention of fireworks. Very nice~! And the fireworks were all juz behind me. Can really feel the impact when it "exploded" into the skies. It was really a sight. Haha she even sms-ed me to tell me that she saw the fireworks on the bus while on her way home from work. So lucky hor?
Hmm this year's NDP is much more special than any year else. First, this is the last NDP held at the National Stadium before the stadium will be closed for renovations. Second, this is also the last NDP that PM Goh is attending as Prime Minister. Towards the end, there was a video footage paying tribute to PM Goh. He really deserves it. If SM Lee was the one who pulled Singapore out of the doldrums, I would say PM Goh was the one who brought Singapore forward. Hope he'll enjoy many years ahead of him. =)
Maybe this Sunday I'll head to the Esplanade to view the fireworks. Haha...wonder if she will be free. Anywayz I guess that's all for today. FiReWoRkS~~~ Heez ^_^
Yeah...finally got thru my weekend le. And now my heels are so painful from all the standing from the whole of yesterday and another 5 hours today. Partly because of my shoes also. That pair of shoes going to spoil liao le, but then I don't wanna wear my newer shoes to work. That place the floor so dirty, don't wanna ditry my newer shoes.
Hmm nothing special happened during these 2 days of work. Let me see...today got a group of girls who came. 1 of them quite pretty. Was wearing a white spaghetti strap top and pink skirt. Quite sweet looking. Haha other than that haven't seen many pretty ladies at work these 2 days =P...that's always the bonus for working mah. If not working will become really boring, especially with these 2 days being so busy.
Later going to watch the FA Charity Shield match at my friend's house. Man U vs Arsenal. Hopefully Man U can win. Haha but then it seems like most of the time whoever wins this curtain-raiser usually don't win the league. Seems like a curse. Haha but then curses will always be broken someday.
Last night managed to download quite a few songs and a MTV before I went to sleep. Haha quite lucky. Haven't got some new songs for some time now. So now got some newer songs to listen to. Won't get so bored le.
Tml is National Day. Got tickets to watch the parade. Hopefully can get some1 to go with me ba. Haven't been to the parade for a few years though every year I have tickets to go. It's going to be the last NDP at the National Stadium before the stadium is due for renovations. And I wanna catch the fireworks~! Hehe guess that's all I've gotta say for these 2 days. Happy National Day to everyone~! =)
Haha today's the day that I'm dreading most. Because after today will come a very long weekend. Argh~...tml have to be at Orchard by 9:45pm and discuss my project then going to work from 12pm to 11pm. 11 hours~! Wonder if I can survive it. It sure is going to be a very long day. Some more Sunday working from 12pm to 5pm too. Haiz~...but nvm lah think of the money can le. *WiNkZ*
Hmm school wasn't too busy today. Actually I skipped my CDA class again. Haha...all my friend's fault. Keep tempting me to go, so in the end juz caved in. I don't take 3-D graphics games too well, so at the end when we finished playing I was feeling kinda groggy le. But after awhile it became better ba. Maybe cos I was a little hungry juz now. Then ate BK and we talked alot of crap. Lolx~
Reached home then had a shower. Haha I brought my hp to the shower. Cos was msg-ing her. She's now having her dinner. So funny...skipped class today to go to work. Good thing it's only a short promo job. Really wanna "scold" her but then maybe she needed some extra money ba. Think gonna try to have an earlier rest tonight. Tml is really a nightmare. Haha cyaz pple~ =)
Finally...today submitted 2 proposals for 2 of my projects. Haven't felt so relaxed for quite some time now. But it's a good thing that for the time being, I can take a breather and rest a little easy. Time to quickly recuperate before starting another round of tough work in the coming weeks.
Nothing special happened today. A normal Thursday for me. Except that when I woke up, the water supply for my block was cut until around 11:30am. Not too sure what works were going on, but I'm juz a little lucky that school started late at 2pm today. If not I'll be going to school stinking like a rubbish bin.
Last night was awoken by her sms at around 3:30am. She and her group members were at 1 of their houses to finish up their project. So funny...said that everytime I "disturb" her with sms during late hours so it was her turn now. Didn't chat much though, only exchanged a few sms-es. She didn't wanna disturb my sleep and I didn't wanna disturb her doing her work.
And a coincidence that I bumped into her at the corridor of the staff room area. I actually went to submit a project, so it was kinda unexpected. Normally won't see her on Thursday cos don't have common class.
Juz now went for a run again. Not bad hor? Hehe...hopefully can carry like that and run at least 3 times a week. Life in the army will be easier if I can keep this up. Oh yeah...ps and sj having tests hor? Haha good luck to the 2 of you wor~...Must do well k? Cyaz~ *sMiLeZ*
Finally another blog entry. Juz woke up from a short nap, and still reeling from a terrible headache. My head isn't spinning that much, but there's juz a constant pain somewhere near my forehead. Whatever. Juz try to breeze thru the last 2 days before I can't stand it anymore.
Yesterday...couldn't remember much that happened in school yesterday. The usual short Tuesday with a tutorial from 10-1, then stayed in school for project discussions until about 3:30pm before going to work. Work...wasn't a busy night, but somehow the lethargic feeling was there. Think it has been there for quite some time. Around 10pm I got a call from her. Managed to secretly answer the call. Said she received the letter, but couldn't accept the money I gave her (in case u're wondering, I put $50 in it).
Spoilt my mood for work totally the rest of the night. It was a good thing that she called at around 10pm cos work was ending soon? Anywayz I suppose I was mentally prepared that she would reject it? Juz plain hoping it would happen otherwise. Plain hoping...yeah when did that ever succeed in any situation? Continued sms-ing with her, then in the end she asked if we could catch a movie. Think it's the 1st time she asked me out? But still couldn't find a reason to smile...
Slept late last night to prepare for a presentation during lecture today. Perhaps that's why I woke up with this stupid headache. Trying to live with it the whole day, but it seems even worse than dying. After school was another project discussion, then went to Lot 1 to meet a Prudential agent to listen to a savings plan. Sounds kinda attractive, think I'll go into it. Don't really have anything to spend on now, so might as well save the money. Could be very useful in future. After that, went to my friend's house to slack awhile before coming home for the nap.
Later gotta rush some projects. Deadline tml for submission. Haiz...this week...turning out to be a very tough week. Hopefully nothing will go wrong with my project submissions tml. It's been a bad enough week already. Wish me luck~ =)
What a tiring 2 days. Let's start with yesterday. It was my grandpa's birthday. Early in the day I went to work first. Such a busy Sunday. In fact, I think it was the busiest I've seen. Customers juz seem to come streaming in non-stop until around 3:30pm. It was a good thing that I finish at 5pm, if not I think I'll fall asleep during work sia.
After work had to rush home and get ready to go to the restuarant. I very the unlucky lor. Juz as the train approached Chinese Garden it started to pour cats and dogs. No choice but to take a bus home and had to call my sis to bring me an umbrella. Even after I had my bath it was still raining. Walked to the restuarant with my umbrella and the bottom of my jeans drenched.
The dinner was alright. Nothing too spectacular about it. But it was kinda filling. Perhaps the thing that tasted best the whole night was the cake. After that, the whole family took some photos at the restuarant. First time the whole family actually took a photo. There were 30 of us, so can imagine how small every1's faces would be in the photo. =)
After that went to my friend's house to meet jl, Kenny and yk. Played game for awhile then went out to eat, again. Haha this time it was nasi lemak. Felt like a pig sia. Eat and eat and eat the whole day. Heez~
Today skipped my first class. Actually I woke up in time for it, but was feeling super lethargic so decided to juz sleep awhile more. In the end I was almost late for lecture and had to take a cab to school. Hmm she said she would be back in school today, but didn't see her at all. Guess she was too tired after the whole of last week. Then haf to wait like 2 hours before it's my turn to do my CA. Such a boring wait man. But while waiting in the food court saw that cute ger. Haha she was there with her classmates doing project. According to my my research, think she's taking DBF (Diploma in Banking & Finance). Such a boring course (in my opinion lah). =P
Now I've finally got home. On the way home I bought an ice-cream to eat some more. Haha think I'm really going to grow fat sooner or later if I go on like this. Worse still, later too much cholestrol and kena high blood pressure sia. Lolx but I'm going for a run later. Hopefully can put in a decent run. Really gotta train up before NS.
Guess I've almost summed up my 2 days. Gonna do some project work le. Cyaz~ =)
Hahaha...juz got home from my friend's house. Went to play some games cos feeling kinda bored at home. The moment I got back my mum told me there are 2 letters for me. First 1 I opened is my Basic Theory result slip. Wanna know my result mah? Here it goes...*drumroll please*...I PASSED~!~! Wahahaha I knew I would pass it this time. Hehe not that I'm so sure of myself but the 2nd time I took the test it seem abit easier than the previous time round.
Now for my 2nd xi. I received my debit card le. Yeahz~ so happy. Now no need to use ATM card anymore le. Lolx got mastercard liao leh. Don't play play. Wahahaha but then again I wonder how many chances I will actually have to swipe the card. Can't always swipe and spend right? Must control also lah. Good thing I'm not well known for being a spendthrift. ^_^
The last xi is...I got my pay le. I think I should have gotten it since it's already month-end. Not very sure what is the amount though cos I haven't checked it out. Should be slightly less than $300 ba. Didn't work alot between 15 June to 15 July, so I'm not expecting alot of money. But then again it's always a bonus to me. I'm not so hard up. If I really am...I can go sell my backside. Lolx juz kidding lah. =P
It's been a very normal Saturday. Went to work early in the morning and knocked off at 3pm. Pretty busy today. Almost the whole restuarant was reserved by tour groups. Lucky me to have the foresight of working only until 3pm. Can go home earlier and slack. Heez~
My mum went to the NDP preview juz now. Think it should be quite nice ba. Juz now my classmate asks me wanna go anot cos his mum may have 3 or 4 tickets to NDP. Haha I told him if he only has 3 then kill me I also won't go. Go and be lightbulb for him and his gf for what wor~...but he's trying to get 4 tickets ba. Want me to ask her to go also. I think she hasn't been to the real NDP before ba.
Today sent a letter to her on my way to work. Inside was juz a short note and some money for her family. Her grandpa's cremation was today. Didn't ask her about it though. Hope she'll receive the mail soon...
Guess all that wraps up my day le. Gotta have an early night cos working tml. Till the next time~ =)
