InitiaL D feVeR!!!!

HaHaz...it seems jusT after two weeks I've become an InitiaL D fanaTic...I'm even spending time to go research on all the cars to sTudy my opponents and see which car needs to be beaten with which straTegy...And it seems that the car I have now (ER34) is quite much of an underperformer [for those who are not famiLiar with these the ER34 is actually a Nissan SkyLine 25GT Turbo]...ok...I think most readers don't get that one too...hahaz...oh well, I need to wait till December when I can get my EAGLES award den spend some of the money to go Jurong Point and play D3...(Jurong point Initial D is very cheap...50c per game) There I can buy some of the other cars and test out my performance on the Time Attack levels.....Qi Zheng and Jun Xiang are levelling up fast....JX already training for Fire...Sad la...I still level 2 on my Manual and level 5 on my Automatic...Looks like I've gotta buck up if I want to caTch up with them....

Enough of the driving games aLready...talk about some of band today...I'm not really used to getting lots of applause after a song...(today we performed in the canteen for a bunch of P6s and pretty much more SPF students...) The canteen was by far the best place to perform, because the low ceiling and limited area contributed to the travelling of the sound (ecHo was AMAZING!!! Especially when we played Ross Roy) The ending was really great because of the echo coursing throughout the canteen and then to the outside. Surprisingly the drumset sounded well...perHaps a little better despite the temperature change. I saw mr poh holding the Overture Jubiloso scores in his arms this morNing...but he didn't menTion anything about it...Heard he had Shrek in the library too.... If u ask me...Todae was quiTe reLaxed...except for the marching in the morning and in between songs in the afternoon. Most of the time we were lazinG around coz we jusT had nothing to do (erM...this reFers to my section...the one with the most free time in the band...hahaz)

It's already the 9th(or is it 10th?) day of fasting....this morning I had a big plate of tom yum prawns, rice, spinach, two drumsticks and two slices of pizza...but still I felt my sTomach begging for food in the early afternoon (EARLY!) Whats more I drank half a pot of tea and a big cup of rose syrup...and I didn't have to visit the toilet for the whole day...And I still got thirsty halfway through. looks like eating and drinking too much on a band day doesn't help too much.... Some of the sec4s came back today. God ma was still nowhere to be seen....Farhan came back...yapping about his metal drumsticks and the custom 'FARHAN' black marching toms...LoLz...Mr poh...just give it to him before he starts making more noise...hahaz... Went home with Maureen and Eugene...first time...lolz...CY stay in school (for a reason I will not say out...) and Gerry had gone home hours ago...Not bad for a Saturday in band...hahaz...hope for more practices like this...hehe...tomorrow get to wake up late...cYaz

TimE to reLaX!!! or...maybE noT... =P

wooT...exams finally ovEr le...so fun...this is the last week before schooL officially closes. Not much of a ceLebration at hand though. Since there will be no schooL, then all the more band will have more pracTices. Can't blame that. The competition is almost 1 month away and to Mr poH we're still like, halfway through. Too much of a rush to me. The trip is going to be soOoOo mucH fun, but of course we can't forget our purpose there. HaiZ...tomorrow gettiN back exaM resultz....so scary...already know results for two subjects...I think i'm going to fail my A-maThz...wahahaz...cannot bLame...my own teacher set onE is the one that I cannot do. What's more, this isn't like the old days anymore. We're getting back our resulTz all at once! Better prepare myselF toniTe...hahaz...

To me the fasting monTh has come off to a good start. Although todae I almost broke fast at lunch break...Thanks to SyaFiq for keeping the faith in me...The marching in the morning just seemed to be too much for me to take until 7pm...This is the fourtH day of the fasting month....26 days to go. Trust me, nobody likes to fast. LoLz. It's all for our reLigion, and whether we like it or not, we have to do it and learn from it. (Not going to tell you the story behind it coz' I'm not TOO sure neiTher.) But I really think this is a good time to resTore most of my lost faith...A really good way. Three new songs springing up in band lately, nameLy Pirates of the Carribean (or how is it spelled?), Malaguena and New Year Greetings. All of them dun sound too bad. Of course POC is my ulTimate fave, but the notes are pretty scary. (Harder than Ross Roy in terms of grade) New Year Greetings was just started todae, and it didn't go too badLy. The band could grasp it pretty quickly and during the combine it sounded finE.

A few sec4s came back todae...esTher, Gerry, lisA, chAriTy and GimmO...reLieved some of the 'i miss you' feeLings from me...hahaz...sTarting to miss goD ma again...waHahaz...dun ask me why, I just do. Actually they just stayed for a whiLe and then left. Gimmo stayed the longest in the band room, "sTudyin" =P and then played the timbaLes for Malaguena. ComicaL fellow, that guy....Lucky for me Gerry stayed behind till after band (dunno why) and went home with me. ChaNg yuaN, as usual, bang sei us for Mr poH or some OTHER person(s) [whose name(s) I shall not menTion...hehEx] or go home first..... And here I am typing this bLog for all to see...Dammit...my mind is bLank. WhaTeveR.

aLwaeZ got sumThin to say....

Hey...that's what's wrong with this bloggiN sysTem...once you start bLogging you just can't stop! I juz updated my blog like...three four days aGo? And now i'm blogging again. Kinda due to the fact that the compuTer i'm using to write this sTuff is freakin S*CKY, or maybe it's just because i got nuThin to do whiLe waiting for my next exam (and my HL2) to come. Dun worry peopLe...i've studied! hahaz... sumthin wrong these few days. Everytime i come to schooL there's aLwaes sum1 missin! Its either they come all at once, dun come at all, come on separate days, or skip a few, den start coMin again. Yup, i'm taLkin about the sec4s!! Good for them, they don't have to come to schooL tomorrow. Some holiday or sumthin with a little stuff in between unTil their 'O's. Todae just came back to collect report book...Oh yes. Although this was the fact, Charity and goD ma were MIA. Let's see...during these few weeks, how ofTen did I get to see a whole family sittin together during recess?? Not very often, i'm afraid. There always seems to be someone missing at the table...No, I'm not just talking about ONE person....dun geT the wrong idea. LoLz...Just miss the few who never come. sometimes for quite a long time....Ok this is getting ouT of hand. Nevermind that....

A MatHs todae was a compLete horror! FYI, todae is the FIRST time in my enTire LIFE i used up all the time (2hrs) to finish up the paper. Not even enough time for me or for anyone else for that matter to check through their work. It was so frusTrating I was graTefuL to be seated under two fans. Some of my classmaTes were on the verge of giving up halfway. (dun be mistaken, this includes the brainy ones =p) Although I still believe that those people will do exceptionally whatever the obstacles they come across. I was pracTically heating up in the brain while at the identity proving part. One of my frienDs used two full pages to compLete that one. I just did a few steps over and over again usin different ways and could'nt get it done. So yes, I left the answer blank. Hope for 1/2 or 1 mark for working though. PuT in quite alot of effort in that question. The rest of the paper was not that bad, save some stupid trickster questions that got me brainstorming (literally) for ten minutes or more. (usually i don't spend more than 5 minutes on a question; that's why I usually finish my papers so quickly)

Went with CY to get my chemistry results from Zaki...got a mere 57.5...quite disappointing though. I was hoping to score a B3 or even an A2 with the hard work I put in. But judging from how the rest of the class did, I did not so badLy. U wanna know how many peopLe failed this paper? Well, I don't really know either, but there was quite a handful. Highest was 80, then the rest below 75, the majority between 50 and 60. Heard from Mrs Leong that Maths1 was quite a disaster. Our class did pretty badly for that one. I'm not surprised. 3I had 3 passes out of 40 candidates. Scary? Not enough. She said 'O's wouLd be even more difficult if we didn't buck up. After all these demoralizing information, i'm not sure I want to find out more about the rest of my results. I'd either start digging my own grave and sit in it till I get my results back or start picking up my books (what for? sec4 is 2-3 months away) and start studying the sec4 work beforehand. I think i'll pick the latter. My tuition will handle that....Looks like i'm not going to be abLe to change this worthless piece of hardware afterall. My chemistry already ruined me but putting a C on my report book. But HL2 is in the bag; nothing will stand beTween me and my birthday present...muaHahaHz...

HaiZ...sec4s not comin back to school anymore (save a few days)...i'm goin to miss dem....can't help it. I love my friends, remember? <---(read previous bLogs =p) Just going to have to live without them for this period of time. In fact, after the end of this year we won't be seeing each other for a very long time. Don't forget us, sec4s! You ruLe!!! Hahaz....wooT...typed aLot le...nobody's going to ask me to update my bLog anymore. hahaz...takE careZ!!

1 morE thIng on my minD!!!

WooT...can'T wait till my 15th birThdae...gettin sumThin sooooo cooL....the seconD coolest thing currently in my lifeTime! (firsT cooLest thing is the day when my mum finallY decideS to repLace this infernaL piece of hardware. Unfortunately this, in facT, will never take place. T_T) Yes, you guessed it (some of you probabLy didnt, so for the benefit of those who DIDNT,) HALF LIFE 2!!! It seems to weird as to why i'd wait till my birthdae when it's out this comin ThursdaE...too bad. My aunt only agreed on buying it as a birthdae present. But who cares? I'm going to place my hands on the greatest game ever developed in the 21st CenTury! (reminds me of the fanfare though =p) There's only one thing about it that could tear my heart apart. It fetches a hefty $89.89US, which is around $S170. A bit too pricey for a little computer game, right? NO! because it also comes with a chance to go to Valve in US!!! Along with gaming guides, 4 games, and pLenty of HL2 merchandise. ErmZ...noTiced i've been talking too much about the game. Don't you? LoLz...okay...I'll stop.

Can't really say much about my examinations though. Already took 6 papers....one of which were complete disasTers (usually what I say about exams is an overstatement, so don't worry too much. =p) MaThs 1 was the worst, set by the maThs HOD...even J2 couLdn't do it...what more about the rest of us? Most of the mAths gianTs in my class had difficulty with the paper. And that was only paper 1! Paper two is coming this TuesDae...this is going to be a horror. Gotta study extra hard for this subject... Dun really worry about the rest of em' though. They're all within my grasp. But ironically, of all subjects E-maThs is the one i'm the most skeptical of. You can't really predict what's going to come out. It's just in luck, and the rest is in your knowledge. Well, at least that's what I think......

Went to Robinsons Sale at EXPO...everything was slashed half or more in terms of its price...although I didn't pay much attention to them....jusT got 3 bars of family sized chocolate bars (3 for $10) and popped them into my mum's shopping bag. You cannot believe how much stuff was bought in total by my mum and two aunts. The bags were enough to fill a bus! [again, an overstatement. =) ] In the middle of everything I was just sittin in one corner with my cousins and messaGin godma, Gerry and da JiE...a little sumThin to get my mind off the noise and the crowd. Most of it was to take my mind off the BOREDOM i got from that place. I was just grateful for the time when we headed home.....Well well well...seems as though da jiE was there earLier, and Gerry was headed there in the evening. since when this place became so well known??? Who's to know (except those who read my blog...wait...that's alot of people.) I was walking about in the toys section (forgive me!!). Who can blame me? All my cousins were there, and if it was up to me to choose, I'd go to the lingerie section (again, forgive me!!). Sheer sanity kept me to the toys.....

Spent the rest of the day playin mahjong and for the past few hours, playing games on the computer...My aunt brought her dog over to my house...still hasn't left though...very cute dog. Hairy, blondish with white and black and a little brown. Really friendly and easy to get along with. (Ran up to me and started pawing me when I first saw it at my aunt's) Really trying to persuade my mum to get me a Golden Retriever...really cool dog. A puppy to start with, then wait for it to grow into a three-foot hunting dog. (For those who doubt my request, Muslims are allowed to keep hunting dogs, period. =p good for me.) I just fell in love with it when I came face to face with my aunt's terrier. Oh well, I'll keep trying. Looks like there's alot of things I'm lookin forward to this end of the year. See ya!

You have been to the Eye of the Hurricane. Keep reading or be blown away by its fury!!! (LoLz)

After some thought i'd decided to lay off one thing so my mind can work better....who knows what? I do. heHez.... so i can concentrate more on getting good results than for the hecK of it....just can't seem to perform when i have sumThin on my mind....so what if it happens? BrinG whaT coMes....wait...isn't that what I said this morning.....and the paper I did was pretty easy if u ask me....silly me....did five instead of four questions in Geog...so stupid....luckiLy i read the instructions.....heEz....

Yes, I know this bLog is stupidly boring. but i just need to put my fingers to work on sumthin so i don't get bored again...I get pretty dangeRous when I'm bored.....some would know......others wouldn't want to....couldn't wait up for GerrY to finish school though.....after I went behind to get lunch and sum bubbLe tea it was already 1:20....but CY insisTed that we went home.....sorry gerry!! haHaz...dun think she'd mind though. T_T

Really need to get my hands on a new computer soon.....mum says i gotta get As and Bs in all my subjecTs...perish the thought, I said...chinese would plant my face into the ground....all I can do now is study hard for the others and just dream of the uLtimate gaMing machine.....3.2Ghz...120HDD...512RAM...Radeon graphics....who'd ask for more? Oh nevermind that..... ...... Hey...it seems with every letter i type i have more ideas in my mind to put into this bLog...guess that's how my mind works anyway... This com sucks though. I give it sumThin and it can't take it.....either that or it suddenly acts as if there's a virus hacking away at my hard drive. Really hate it. HATE IT!!! =)

Do peopLe really think that i'm annoying? Well.....i do get a little hyper at times.....sumtimes being a little persistent at the same time.....hey man, that's me for goodness sake. I'll try to control my movements a little more after the exaMz....TRY....muahahahaz...... Oh well.....guess what? I've run out of ideas. This little paragraph ends my bLogging for todae.....hehez......cya soon!
