Your guardian angel....

2007-11-22T05:09:00.000-08:00

When I see your smile Tears roll down my face
I can't replace
And now that I'm stronger I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

It's ok. It's ok. It's ok.

Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

cause you're my, you're my, my true love,
my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
cause I'm here for you
Please don't walk away
and Please tell me you'll stay, stay, yeah
Whoa-oh, stay, whoa

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be ok
Though my skies are turning gray, (gray)

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

What a nice song right?
haha.

Exams over!

2007-06-25T22:07:00.000-07:00

After few days of mugging therapy..

EXAMS ARE OVER!!

i always have mixed feelings when exams are over.. firstly, i'm damn happy coz at least exams are over and i can get some of the burden off my shoulders, next i can enjoy with my friends, go shopping, play cards.etc. However, thinking that i have to work for one whole week makes me irritated again.. haiz. one week of my life is contributed to the hotel, how unlucky!!

anyways, went bbq-ing on friday, bought loads of food and luckily we managed to finish it, otherwise wasted.. bbq-ing was fun although not many ppl came, we ate, played cards and drank, didnt really drink much coz i cant take chivas. haha..

Finally, i changed my blog song, its always been sad, sad, sad songs.. but now, i'm feeling happy.. haha.. so i changed to my current fav song of the moment. Beautiful girl - Sean Kingston.. u guys should listen to it.. kinda fun song =)

i'm not EMO anymore..
wheee!

i'm back, but not for long...

2007-06-12T08:30:00.000-07:00

friends,

i'm finally back..
in the midst on these past few weeks, its been a horrifying journey for me..
projects, work, projects, work non stop.. its gonna kill me
and the worse part is.....

EXAMS ARE JUST NEXT WEEK!!! DAMN!!

i guess i havent mentioned i was transferred to Thanying Restaurant for my attachment, i was kinda sad that i left bar, cos its kinda fun, and now i'm stuck at this Thai restaurant for the next 2 weeks.. and as usual, i heard some bad things coming out from there, but i definately wont let it affect whatever i do la, so long i work properly, nothing will go wrong rite?

the staffs are really a very nice bunch of ppl, taught me alot of things, and its actually kinda fun working there, anyway who gets to speak Thai and eat Thai food everyday rite? =)

i guess i wont wanna talk that much about work, considering that i'm not working for the next few days coz its exams period.. I really dislike the exam period, its like.. so much to study for just that paper itself and although the lessons are kinda interesting, i still fell asleep just by reading the damn book.. i really hope after my BIG presentation on Thursday, i'm gonna start studying, otherwise I might not have time to do so... and pls... dont ask me to work OT just becoz i'm in need of $$$...

i seriously need to study!!

-no soccer
-no cards
-no girls
-no freedom

these 2 weeks....

stressed out..

25 minutes too late

2007-03-29T06:00:00.000-07:00

After some time
I finally made up my mind
She is the girl
That I really wanna make her mine

I'm searching everywhere
To find her agin
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry bout the things I've done

I find her standing
In front of the church
The only place in town where I didnt search
She looks so happy
In her wedding dress
But she cried while she was saying this

Boy, I've missed your kisses
All the time but this is
25 minutes too late
Though you travelled so far
Boy, I'm sorry you are
25 minutes too late

Against the wind
I'm going home again
Wishing me back
To the times when we were more than friends

But still I see her
In front of the church
The only place in town I didnt search
She looks so happy
In her wedding dress
But she cried while she was saying this

Boy I've missed your kisses
All the time but this is
25 minutes too late
Though you travelled so far
But I'm sorry you are
25 minutes too late

Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I cant hear the words she said

Boy I've missed your kisses
All the time but this is
25 minutes too late
Though you travelled so far
But I'm sorry you are
25 minutes too late

Hey guys, one of my favourite songs; 25 minutes by Michael Learns To Rock..
Listen to the lyrics and i find it very meaningful
Learn to cherish the one you love
Because if you dont, they might just be gone any moment
Just like the song, when the guy loves the girl so deeply, but she's getting married to another guy because the guy is 25 minutes too late..
This post is not just for us to cherish our relationship with our partners but also our friends and family too...

hello!!!

finally i'm posting yet again, i dont seem to understand why i cant post everyday, just feel very lazy. haha.. maybe i'm not disciplined la.. nvm forget it.. Thinking of work again tmr doesnt do anything good to me.. they just extended me at room service for another month.. sometimes doing the same things for a long time really bores u and i really wanna get out of that place.. =(

shatec exams are coming soon, next week in fact, havent really been studying, but i'll try to during these few days, hope can pass la, if not must pay $75 for the retake, damn ex man!!
i'm beginning to like school more and more. the only thing is that the time needing to travel there is quite long, other than that, school has been lotsa fun for me.. On Tuesday, we went to this bar training place called Diageo, at OneGeorge Street.. the bar there is really very good, it actually carries many different brands such as Smirnoff, Johnnie Walker and Siroc.. the bartender was also from SHATEC and he looks really professional while doing these cocktails..
learnt alot over there, about how to set up a bar properly to prevent any inconvenience during operations and stuffs like that...

22 months and counting, for me to be out of the industry...
long long way to go...

Gridiron Gang

2007-02-28T05:02:00.000-08:00

Chinese New Year is almost over, and i'm beginning to feel happy about it.. 4 more days and its over. I've been losing lotsa money during this Chinese New Year period that i don have enough money now.. *sob*. I'm now hoping for the unexpected to happen for me on Friday which is to kena Toto.. $10 million. haha. that would make my new year more happy..

I went to register for my Basic Theory just now, finally decided to do something meaningful. I actually wanted to register at Bukit Batok, but after some thoughts, decided to register it nearer to my house, which is at Ubi.. The date has been finalised, the trial test will be on the 23th April, and the actual test a week later, 7th May.. i really hope i can pass with just one attempt, without wasting money to retake and retake again.. and my dad will sponsor me if i pass it within one attempt. so i'm looking forward to it and definately will study very very hard for it.

Suddenly feeling bored at home, decided to watch Gridiron Gang just now.. its actually a movie with a bunch of gangsters and criminals in America locked up in detention camps, and the leader/coach (The Rock) trying to create teamwork by forming a football team together, named "Mustangs".. 2 of the main characters in this movie were arch-rivals in their respective gangs outside, at first, there were many many troubles and fightings between both of them, but they ended up being good friends and helped each other in the team.. they finally beaten the unbeaten team in the league in the playoffs after being thrashed by them in the first game.. i really admire the bunch of guys to be able to stay united and also The Rock, who is an influencial coach which make the team stay united and helped them out if there's any problems they faced..

The movie taught me that even if u totally dislike that person or hated that person, when both of u are in the same boat, u just need to work together with him/her to overcome the obstacles
so that there wont be any conflicts... teamwork is a very important value in life..

alrites, back to work tmr after a long week's rest.. final week in room service, i hope i enjoy it and i guess the hotel industry is still waiting for me out there and facing more challenges ahead..

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO ALL

haven been blogging for awhile.. school and work is making me lifeless!! haiz..
anyway, to continue from my previous post..
Singapore won e Asean Football Championship after drawing with them in Thailand and beating them on aggregate.. well done LIONS!!

school has been kinda boring these last few days, don really have e mood to study and work rite now.. haiz.. i really miss sec school days; soccer after school everyday, disturbing juniors, hanging out after school, and all other activities.. wish i could go back to those days.. haiz..
now in SHATEC, which is so god-damn far from my home, i can only go home after school and work.. only can meet my friends on Sunday when we play football, which also happens less often nowadays..

seriously, we only live life once, so we should enjoy while it lasts, but after being tied down by school and work, i really cant enjoy myself like before..
the Justin of before and the Justin now is totally different...

-lifeless
-hopeless romantic

thats how to describe me

SINGAPORE 2 THAILAND 1

hows this for a result?
haha
we won at home!!

time for a battle in Bangkok
Bring it on Thais!!

Bunch of sore losers!!!.. haha..

Yesterday at the Kallang National Stadium, it was jammed packed and the atmosphere was definately there.. what a way to end the final match at the National Stadium.. beating the favourites and having an advantage on sunday's 2nd-leg final..

and i hope there wont be anymore poor refereeing decisions, and Thailand, if u wanna walk over, walk over at yr own stadium. and let us be the worthy winners...!!

2007-01-16T06:04:00.000-08:00

Today, i was really fuming on my way to school because of yet another MRT incident..
First of all, i injure my foot 2 days ago while playing football, and so i had difficulty walking.. so there i was, getting a seat on my way to school in the train.. beside me was a middle-aged lady who is already irritating me because of her continuous coughing..

the train reached Tanah Merah, an old lady came in.. i was actually hesistant to offer my seat ( i know i'm kinda bad, but my leg is really hurting). then the lady beside me, asked me to offer the seat to the old lady, i had no choice then but to offer my seat to her.. so i just stood there waiting for someone to get up.. finally after two stations, the man sitting beside the lady got up, so i went to sit over there..

then came the incident, at Paya Lebar station, one boy came in the train, all wet and dirty, after playing soccer i suppose, he was carrying his bag, his shoe bag and his soccer ball.. i didnt really wanna notice him becoz i was kinda tired, so i slept.. then, the lady tapped me on my shoulder, i took off my earpiece and she asked me to give my seat up to that boy..

i just couldnt take it anymore, and i kinda shouted at her.. hey, cant u tell by the way i'm walking that i'm injured? why cant u give up yr seat instead of i do? everyone was looking at me, but who cares? she only knows how to ask ppl to give up their seat, why cant she do it? i'm not her dog for fuckin goodness sake.. although she commented that i was not civilised, haha.. fuck that.!! i dont have to be civilised to a fuckin bitch like her...

she gave up her seat in the end, and got down a station later.. i dont need ppl like her to ruin my day especially i was already injured.. talkin about it again makes my blood boil..
but at least i got my anger vented out on her.. :)

2007-01-10T01:54:00.000-08:00

Finally i'm outta banquet, but with a price of course.. treated the whole gang Tiong Bahru pau. but anyway, its well spent becoz i've learnt quite a lot over there, i dont deny.. i would love to work part-time there, but i've gotta see my schedule first..

Back to school seems fun, but having to realise that we're gonna end school at 7pm every Monday is no fun at all.. luckily after some changes this week, we're released earlier on Mondays.. thats good =) after school we went Conrad Hotel to have dinner, it was absolutely worth every cent.. has been one of the best buffet i've eaten...

It now seems that my beloved team Liverpool, lost their superb home form.. how could they lose 2 in a row to Arsenal??? in just a space of 4 days.. 4 goals scored and 9 conceded in 2 games is terrible.. its been getting bad to worse these 5 days.. really hope they could buck up in the EPL and now their only silverware they could aim for is the Champions League.. but.. they'll play the mighty Barce.. i'll still be supportin my beloved club =)

I'll be back to work yet again tmr, and a new start.. i'll be attached to Room Service and Poolside for 2 months.. new beginning, new workload... i'm beginning to miss banquet.. i know u guys think thats the last thing i'll ever say, but its true.. i really learn a lot from there..

life havent really turned the corner for me..
when will that day come?
i will sit here and anticipate
and wait patiently
for the day to arrive...
and that special someone to come...

week-in-review

2006-12-30T18:47:00.000-08:00

Finally i'm starting to blog again.. i feel its been a while, haha. no choice la. busy then cant blog..
This week has been an up-and-down week for me.. its been fun, yet at times, can be a lil irritating..

i was off the whole week, so went to KL for 3 days, it was fun, bought kinda lots of things, and had a fun time over there.. on tuesday, my bros; astley, mok, yanda, ks and vince came over to my place to watch & play football and stayed the night.. its not an everyday thing, so its kinda cool.. its always fun to have these guys around. haha

then came the Taiwan earthquake which shook the whole spore's internet...it was very irritating as the internet gets from slow to slower.. haiz.. why cant the world be peaceful?? and free of problems..

wednesday and thursday went to Bugis and town to hang out with my bros.. as i said it was always fun to have them around me, otherwise, i'll be super uber bored and lifeless.. town was different to me, maybe becoz its been awhile since i've gone there... i think 5 months? since i've gone to town.. my work has been pounding me and i just cant find the time..

friday went sakae sushi with astley, ate quite alot, but still lost to him la... haha.. after that we met mokhsein and we went to chill at starbucks till late, talked about lots and lotsa things.. they are going to try the s-league trials at tampines rovers.. good luck dudes =)

yesterday went to work, didnt have the mood at all, no mood to even eat my lunch... its been 7 days since i've last worked, the feeling is totally different man.. but after everything was done, i feel relieved that they let me off at 11 sharp..

My banquet days are coming to an end, should i be happy or sad??

countdown : 5 more days..

MOS

2006-12-09T20:49:00.000-08:00

yet another lazy lazy sunday

went to MOS yesterday, also donno why decided to go there, but went just to have fun la.
anyway, it wasnt really clubbing, more like squeezing. when we arrived, there was already a huge number of ppl queueing up, argh! right up to 7-11 there. whoa. took a VERY long time to manage to get in, but free la, so its ok. haha.

so we went in around 12, and there was lots and lots of ppl inside already, cant imagine the ppl outside still queueing up. i'm actually not a retro or trance guy, i love r&b, but the r&b section was very very crowded, and we tried to squeeze thru with several failed attempts, we then ended up in the pure room, when me and astley got a few glasses of beer, just to chill..

anyway, i'm beginning to accept MOS, becoz i really like the atmosphere there, but the crowd yesterday was simply a killer. imagine the crowd here is so packed, what about ZOUKOUT man? haha...

tomorrow will be the day when i begin my 1 month attachment, 6days work per week. its gonna kill me man. dont know what kinda stuff they will ask me to do, but i'll just have to tahan for another month and i'm finally free..

8 Jan 2007 - the day i'm outta banquet!! FREEDOM!!

2006-11-26T08:03:00.000-08:00

back from DXO, super duper tiring last night, went there straight after work, which was why i don really have e mood to dance and party..
we earlier chose between Zouk and DXO, but in the end we chose DXO..

dont really like e place there, the dancefloor was really small, the place itself was small and the DJ for the night really suck!!

the good thing was that, i managed to snap a pic with emilee kang, joakim gomez and jasmine tye of the spore idol.. but didnt manage to take with paul becoz he left kinda early after his performance.. he really can sing!! joakim is hot in person, friendly as well.. and Jasmine.. is damn pretty la.. haha..

astley, kenneth, stan and i tried the Tiger tower, which is basically tiger beer inside this tower-shaped thingy, and its super cheap, just $19.80 for 2 Litres of Tiger Beer.. =)

anyways, my buddy astley wanted me to advertise him on my blog.. so.. here he is..

Astley
18
single
lonely
looking for true love =)

alrite??

We will never know

2006-11-22T18:37:00.000-08:00

here i am blogging again, hours before i start my week of work again. haiz.. when will this end man??

nevermind, on a brighter note.. i came across this and would like to share it with u guys, amazingly.. its sooo true..

Words women use..

FINE This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

FIVE MINUTES If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

NOTHING This is the calm before the storm. This means "something," and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'Nothing' usually end in "Fine"

GO AHEAD This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.

LOUD SIGH This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh"means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing"

THAT'S OKAY This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

THANKS A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say you're welcome.

after reading this, i feel.. its so true..
just dont understand why women like to twist their words around?
-does it make them sound intellectual? OR
-are they just unique in their own way?

my answer is... only the women themselves know..
we guys never know what women are thinking..

From this moment on....

2006-11-18T18:36:00.000-08:00

working in banquet has been lotsa fun for me. just wanna share a song with u guys that i've been hearing over and over again in banquet during *solemnisation

*solemnisation- wedding ceremony where groom and bride exchange vows and rings

From this moment on - Shania Twain

From this moment…life has begun
From this moment…your are the one
Right beside you is where i belong
From this moment on
From this moment…i have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love i’d give my last breath
From this moment on

I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can’t wait to live my life with you can’t wait to start
You and i will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment…as long as i liveI will love you…
i promise you this
There is nothing…i wouldn’t give
From this moment on

Oh oh
You’re the reason i believe in love
And you’re the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams…came true…because of you
From…this…moment
as long as I live
I will love you
i promise you this
There is nothing i wouldn’t give
From this moment
I will love you as long as i live
From this moment on

just look at the lyrics of this song, i find it very meaningful and its a super romantic song. hope u guys can have a chance to hear it. =) everytime i listen to this song, i envy the couple who is getting married becoz the lyrics of the song totally suits the mood.

parents will be leaving for China tmr, gonna be alone at home for 8 days, argh. nobody to talk to, nothing to do, lifeless, so afraid cant wake up on time, but i'll try my best. haha... =)

Ban-Queeeet

2006-10-08T09:45:00.000-07:00

My first 3 days at Amara Hotel banquet department have definately been a blast with lots of happenings which are definately crazy but still it happened..

Day1
i was so damn scared coz of the negatives that i've heard about banquet and those stuff about bullying and doing a lot of hard labour work.. and of cos, i was scared that my uniform couldnt fit, coz the previous one couldnt, and that i gotta wear my own.. BUT.. luckily, none of it happened on the first day.. i went there, looking very very nervous, not knowing any staffs or anything.. and they, asked me to work at the Poolside on e first day.. there's this buffet lunch going on, and then the Mooncake Festival Celebration within the hotel, so i was back to what i did in the coffeehouse, clearing plates, pouring water, which was easy.. basically it went on until around 5pm, then we had our break till around 6pm.. when we went up after that, we basically just had to settle down and turn the ballroom for the next day's seminar in e morning, and did the breakfast settings, then i'll be able to leave already... but after that, i received a tragic news... i had to come at 6am in e morning, and that was definately crazy...

Day2
here i was, 530am, at e security checkpoint, looking all stoned and tired.. but at least, with the thought of going back at 2pm, eases everything in my mind..so we continued the breakfast settings, and the time really pass very very fast.. the next time i looked at my watch was around 9am and that was when all the guests already went in the ballroom and we could start to relax a little... it was until 11am when all the guests came out and we knew we had things to do again.. that is to turn e ballroom for a wedding the next day, so we rolled out tables, carried stacks of chairs and folded napkins for the occasion and we were basically done by 1.30pm and by then, my manager released me early, so i got 30mins off earlier. then another timing problem arises, i was supposed to work from 12-8pm the next day, but my manager asked me to come from 5pm-1am.... then i saw e event sheet that e wedding was from 230-5pm, so when i come, i wouldnt have much to do.... SO WRONG!!!

Day3
i happily walked in, thinking that i just need to clear up everything after the wedding lunch is over, but when i walked into the ballroom, most of it had been cleared and my colleagues are setting some stuffs that looked like for the chinese wedding occasion, so i went over and asked one of my colleague, after he told me what was he doing, i swear i wanted to go to the toilet to cry.. there is a wedding dinner later at 8, and we have to get ready by 645pm.. no choice, i had to live with it, although i have no experience in banquet before, i knew i had to learn..so i helped them to set everything nicely and when it was around 630, everything was almost done.. so we had a little break, and our manager then briefed us on what we had to do, and who our partners were.. i was partnered with a girl with much much more experience than me, and she taught me what i had to do and how to use the god damn service gears, all i had to do was just to serve, clear plates and carry the oval tray, which is quite easy to me coz i carried it b4.. and we were in charge of 3 tables... then came the most disgraceful part, i actually spilled a glass of beer and a glass of red wine on a guest's pants.. and when i turned and saw my partner staring at me, i feel so disgraced and i immediately apologised to e guest and also to her...
Now came the good news, when i was about to carry 2 plates of cold dish, my partner rushed in to stop me, she only asked me to carry 1, because one of the tables guests went to join another table, so we only have 2 tables to serve.. and that was wonderful because we have less pressure..
so we continued everything smoothly and finally it ended around 11pm.. but i still have to stay on, what we have to do next, was super tiring..

The whole ballroom was in a mess after e wedding, so only 7 of us left, we had to clear everything and turn it into a church setting which i have totally no clue what it was, until my captain taught me..basically we just have to clear everything left after the wedding.. rolled all the tables back to the store, and push in around 300+ chairs and 12 stages.. with 7 ppl, it looked very difficult, but actually we worked kinda fast and finished everything at around 2pm..

After 3 days at banquet, it doesnt seem that difficult from what i have thought initially, it is actually a very fun place to work, just that it is kinda tiring and alot of carrying to do.. i certainly look forward to next week, and i hope that what i have encountered these 3 days is one of the worst, so that my days at banquet would be more happy..

exams coming!!! mugging and mugging

2006-09-11T09:43:00.000-07:00

exams exams exams!!! argh... in around 12 hours time, i'll be having my first SHATEC exams.. damn its stressful.. i thought by working 7am-3pm last week i could come back home to study, but man, i just couldnt.. i slept immediately when i got home.. haha.. thus leaving me to mug from Saturday till today..

i am seriously scared about the exams.. i cant fail.. gotta pay $75 for the retake and its gonna be damn troublesome.. i've been mugging and mugging nonstop till i cant tahan, soo tiring man!!
hope these 3 days end asap then i can at least study for my O's..

i've come to realise that work is actually kinda fun when u do your job properly.. i didnt get scolding anymore from my supervisor, and that made work more fun.. everyday i'll just be there and continue what i've done everyday and just make sure everything's alright and i wont get any more scoldings.. haha..

i guess i gotta go continue mugging again.. i'll definately update my blog once my exams are done which is on this thursday... hehe

pls drop a comment on my tagboard after reading!! =)
peace

Joakim OUT!!

2006-09-11T09:34:00.000-07:00

holla!! i'm finally back to blog again.. phew, these few weeks have been hell busy for me which is why i cant really blog.. haiz..

finally, Joakim Gomez is out of the competition and thanks to all you ppl out there who voted really smartly and carefully.. but i do feel for him. the week that he sang quite well, he got voted out, but pls Joakim.. dont continue your career in singing.. go do something else, for the sake of us Singaporeans!!

Last week, fans favourite Paul TwoHill was voted out and i was quite sad to see him get eliminated, although i dont support him, but he's one person that entertains and put out a good performance to everyone every week.. so Paul, pls do continue persue your singing career coz u have e potential in it!! yuppie!

cant wait for idol again this week!! 2 more weeks to e grand finals and i know most ppl would wanna see a Hady-Jonathan final.. and me too.. hope they will qualify into e finals !!

Joakim cant sing!!!

2006-08-24T06:19:00.000-07:00

there's a burning question inside me which i hope some ppl can answer me....

WHY THE HELL IS JOAKIM GOMEZ STILL IN THE IDOL COMPETITION??

Please.. do u really think he can sing?
damn, i swear i sing better than him....
why do Singaporeans spend 60cents just to waste an sms to vote for him?

Some other contestants who are voted out should still be in now.. like Jay and Mathilda...and latest Nurul
Once i thought Jasmine should also be voted out, but at least her voice is improving and her fan base is also there.. so she doesnt deserve to be out. Its a good thing that Hady is not voted out.. he's just the coolest singer left in the competition.. and he does have my vote to win the Singapore Idol title...

i certainly hope, like what Gurmit says.. people would vote for quality... why bother having Singapore Idol just becoz of fame and not quality singing? if Joakim joins Star Search, he might have a chance to win it.. but not a singing competition...

hope that next week, Singapore please do the right thing... and vote Joakim out of the competition...

one helluva supervisor/ the bad and good sides of women

2006-08-23T12:44:00.000-07:00

woww.. i think i'm e only one on this earth to be updating my blog at 3.30am man!! haha.. its just bored while watching football that i decided to update this blog.. Again, its not been updated for a long time becoz i'm really really busy and thanks to all u ppl out there who came to visit my blog and tagged it, i appreciate it.
The past week has been pretty horrendous for me.. not only in school, but in work as well..

on tuesday and wednesday last week, we had two tests and the one on wednesday was a killer.. it was so damn diff that i really cant do man.. haiz, hope can get at least a pass i'll be very happy... but school's been fun as usual with my classmates, but i just realised that 3 days in school is pretty short and the time passes really fast.. but at work.. although it is 3 days, it sure feels like a whole week... time passes by sooo damn slow...

pissed off with my supervisor really... she has this thing against me i feel.. whatever i do is slow or wrong.. i know i'm just a freakin trainee and i come to work only 3 times per week, u expect me to know everything upside down? and stop using, "How long have u worked here??" to question me... although its 1.5 months, but to be exact, its less than 30days... its true i dont know much things, but u expect a rookie like me to do 3 person's job and to do it fast? and whenever i ask her to put someone with me to do the runner job, i'll get scolding.. i'm just a trainee ok? not some superman.. argh!! the last 3 days of work, u really made my blood boil and causing my mood to fall while working and if i'm not under bond, i'll definately quit man.. and really thanks to all e other staffs and captains who really taught me alot of things... u're e best man!!

I just dont understand women... when they're having mood swings, they can have all e things in e world that they want.. but when guys just gets a lil frustrated, the women just dont give a damn... *i have nothing against women*
why are some girls so materialistic, does money mean so much to u? then go be a prostitute.. u can earn lots there.. some do act like sluts and bitches, go find those bad boys, they're for u.. and some do get angry by the slightest thing a guy says.. whats up with that? u mean once a guy is together with u, they dont have any stand? they cant speak up for themselves? to hell with u man... there's no need for such girls.. (i know most girls would be screaming and wanting to kill me but i dont care... i gotta speak up for e guys) i simply hate those girls who are materialistic and are only happy to see the pockets of guys burn, those girls who is so sensitive that they assume u have someone else just becoz the guys dont say "I Love You" and threatens to break up with u.. and those girls who will simply find e slightest thing that u do wrongly and start to find fault with u.. why do they even exist? it seems challenging for guys who have such girlfriends, i really pity u guys.. i'll say.. move on guys, there're much better girls out there for u....

and of cos there are good and sweet girls on this earth.. why cant more of (those mentioned above) be like them? they'll do e sweetest things to their boyfriends and guys who have such girlfriends, u're on cloud nine... not many girls would do this.. romantic, sweet and understanding girls certainly beat MATERIALISTIC, SLUTTY, BITCHY AND UNREASONABLE girls...

*told u i dont have problems with girls, just that i feel sadand pity those guys who told me stories abt their girlfriends are materialistic, acting like bitches and super unreasonable, which i why i think i should voice it out*

back to basics

2006-08-11T06:54:00.000-07:00

3 DAYS OF HELL EVERY WEEK!!!!

-enough said-

I need TIME!!!

2006-07-20T06:58:00.000-07:00

Alrite everyone, i'm really sorry to leave this blog so stagnant. Its like there's not much time for me to update it ever since i started school... its kinda stressful needing to work and study at e same time, but HELL with it, i'm kinda enjoying it every moment(enjoy so that I can like what I'm doing, otherwise I'll be stuck for 2.5yrs).except just the "TIME FACTOR" But seriously, i rather prefer studying than working. Can see friends in school, talk cock with them, haha.. but work is just simply boring..
What i've been doing is just serving drinks, serving drinks all these while, cant they teach me more? argh!!!

And now on a more serious note, i really miss alot of things after i started on my course..

1. Soccer, not really much time to play
2. My 5U buddies, damn... u're missed by me..
3. Watching TV.. its like, totally no time..
4. Clubbing.. haha.. I wanna go!!! but.. no time again...

TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME!!! thats the freakin reason that made me so miserable!!!!

How i wish 2.5 years will pass right now, so that i could do all these stuffs yet again.. haiz... suddenly everything has just been freezed and i feel like crap now.. i can cope with studies and work, luckily for that.. but i really need more time to enjoy.. argh!!!

Oh yes, this sunday, me and the boys will be having a soccer match at Bedok View Sec, against a strong team, just hope that we'll win and continue our winning streak. haha.. =) (thats on a brighter note, my blog cant just have sadness all e time)

*time affects relationships*

busy week

2006-07-09T08:30:00.000-07:00

Today our former class 5U, went to East Coast Park to celebrate Khai's and Emily's birthday.. damn, it rained kinda heavy in e morning, was kinda hesistating whether wana go or not, but in e end, i just went although i had a lil bit of flu, its been going on for days.. haha.. yeah, so when we were abt to reach ECP, it rained even heavier, so we settled at parkway and waited for the rain to stop, so we kinda walked around while e girls went shopping.. then after maybe an hour, we walked to ECP although it was still raining, but we had volleyball with us, so we played along the way there... so we walked and walked till we saw a pitch. PERFECT!! finally can play soccer, so long i haven play leh.. kinda miss soccer.. haha.. but i sucked... haiz... no wonder i can only play keeper, haha... So we played till around 8.30pm, then we went home.. kinda meaningful day, that Khairul and Emily celebrated their birthday with us... oh ya, we celebrated at a very fun place.. haha.. MCDonalds at ECP.. haha.. kinda cool right?

Ok, so i started my school already, as i said, school's very fun.. but i dont really like the work part.. alrite started work on Thursday, it wasnt really work, but orientation, mostly about the hotel, where will we be posted to, the hierachy of the hotel and how it operates.. so I'm being posted to Element Cafe and i was thinking, wow, main attraction of the hotel.. damn its gonna be demanding.. so went home on Thursday feeling kinda scared.. but when Friday comes, i went to e cafe, and all the ppl there were very nice to me, taught me alot of things and what should i do when i'm working... and i tell u.. THE FOOD IS DAMN NICE!!! haha.. although i could not eat, i wish i really could.. haha... i worked from 1pm-6pm, so luckily when the dinner time came, i wasnt there.. haha.. otherwise, i would've worked my socks off...
Alrite, i was told to come on Saturday at 3pm.. means i'm working the afternoon shift.. and that also means i cant play soccer with my team.. god dammit if this goes on, i really regret buying my boots... i'll try to change shifts guys.. haha.. i wish i could.. When i got there, it was high tea time and not really very crowded.. but when the clock hits 6.. thats the time everyone's crazy... i was stationed to serve ppl, so i kinda learnt some stuff abt serving and all, i really cant wait for 11pm and the next day(my off day).. haha

I cant wait for school to start.. What my teacher says its true.. after 3 days of work, Shatec is the place to relax, and its super true.. cant wait to go back to school and meet all my friends to share and exchange experiences.. =)
Now i'm currently waiting for the finals to start at 2am.. Italy vs France... everyone's going for the Italians, but I'm routing for the French... i believe they can go far after thei poor start.. haha..
I'm every moment thinking of school.. i miss school.. argh! and finally it will be here..
!!tomorrow!!

SHATEC!(cont)

2006-07-05T04:58:00.000-07:00

Back to where i left out yesterday. But before that, Germany did not deserve to LOSE yesterday, they were just unlucky. Damn Podolski, miss so many easy chances. And the only good player for the Italians was Cannavaro. And how lucky they were to score 2 goals in the last 2 mins.Poor Ballack, Poor Klinsmann, Poor Germany.. Lucky Italians...

2nd day of school(4-7-06)

Haha after the previous day's lesson of being late, i was super early to reach the Bukit Batok Mrt station at 10am.. but to my surprise, some of my classmates were already there, so we walked slowly to school, it was a freakin hot day and we were made to wear white long sleeves and black business pants... so it was quite a short journey around 10 mins to school. Luckily the classroom, McCormicks, was air-conditioned.. otherwise, i would've died.. and the first lesson was again, the boring Food Service Management.. luckily the cold air con make me awake and not felt like sleeping in class.. so thats not bad..
After that was lunch, not quite bad, finally we got a table at the coffeeshop, it's usually full house, but we still managed to get seats, so we chatted and had our lunch then went back to class for Catering Science....
Catering Science is something like the FNN we learn in secondary school.. argh, and we're gonna learn about food hygiene and stuff.. crap!! boring!! argh, but i gotta take it.. haha... Then after that was Maths, she actually wanted to give us e test but we didnt want to, so at least we delayed it a lil.. haha.. at least for a day. And before Maths lesson, cause we kinda had a long break, we all went to our Maths class to sit down and get to know more abt our classmates, we were talkin about the match between Germany and Italy, who's gonna win and stuff.. and then all of us exchanged numbers, and at least i wasnt shy at the point of time.. haha.. then when its time to go home, gotta rush for my night class, damn, couldnt go shopping with them.. sooo sad =(

3rd day of school(5-7-06)

as usual, i reached the Mrt Station at 10am, and some of them are already there, so after everyone was here, we went NTUC to buy sweets and to look at soccer odds, Portugal for Champions looks attractive at $5.50.. haha.. so we got our stuff and strolled to school.. There it was, first lesson, and it was Maths test.. actually its kinda easy, but i took quite long to finish it, cant really remember some of e steps to do actually.. haha.. then we had quite a quick lunch, talking abt the match yesterday and today as well... Cmon portugal!! ok, then we went back to school for FSM, today's FSM lesson was kinda fun when he talked about franchising... kinda interested in e topic, also he talked about what am I currently doing.. "word-of-mouth business". then it was back to CS, and i tell u.. the air con there is fucking cold, and i was just freezing.. phew, thank god it ended soon.. haha... and we can actually go home to prepare for work tomorrow that is.. haha.. i donno whats the feeling actually, i rather prefer school than going to work.. but if its just studying and no work, i wont get paid, thats what the bond stated rite? haha.. so i'll just pull through and soon i'll get used to it... haha..

PS: its been 3 days in school, and still there are ppl in my class who do not believe that I'm Chinese, and that I'm a Malay.. haha.. until i showed them my IC.. then they saw my chinese name.. haha... they said i look MAT, and the way i speak is like a Malay, haha.. why??? argh!!

SHATEC!

2006-07-04T09:48:00.000-07:00

Phew, after long months of waiting and sufferings from the stupid MOE, i finally didnt need their help anymore, i enrolled in the Hotel Star Programme in SHATEC and they gave me an answer just within 3 days that i'm selected for the interview... and i got in.. haha.. thanks lord!!
alrite, then went for several hotel interviews and finally after around a month or so, Amara Hotel-Singapore is going to accept and sponsor me for my course in Dip for Hotel Management. and i'm gonna talk all about my orientation and my first 2 days in school..

Orientation(30-6-06)
i was being asked to go for the orientation like 945am in the morning, and damn how unwilling was i to go. i was super scared and lazy and tired.. they should try consider shifting Shatec to Tampines man... its at bukit batok.. damn, i'm staying in Tampines... haha.!! ok and so, the day came, i was kinda on time for the orientation, was kinda quiet until Dawn came to ask me for a pen.. haha, then knew she was from the same sponsored hotel as me.. great! haha.. ok, the course tutor came in and spoke to us about basic general rules and regulations in e school.. kinda dull though, plus the air con was like freezing cold. after that long introduction, we were shown around the school and met some trainers as well.. then came lunch time, although it was buffet, but i didnt really eat that much coz i'm not hungry(first time eh).. haha.. after that the tutor sent us off and wished us best of luck for our journey here.. so was kinda bored, coz was suppossed to meet ks,yanda and vince for dinner at 7. and i finished at 1. luckily some of my class girls were there and we went shopping at WestMall(gonna be my new hangout place for 2.5 years)...

First day of school(3-7-06)
I was kinda late for school, i live in Tampines, somebody please show me some sympathy. and luckily the teacher wasnt here yet.. we had to actually combine Maths class with this bunch of rowdy and noisy seniors who are super rude to e teacher, god dammit.. she handed us the lesson schedule, and damn!!! i saw this two words, "profiency test" 5-7-06, which means its 2 days later.. damn, i'm new here, and here we are first day of school, not really knowing anyone well, not knowing the school, teachers, facilities well and BAM! there's a test. luckily it's profiency, not progress.. otherwise, i'll die of stress.. haha.. ok, maths lesson schedule's kinda fun, mainly more to e basics, good for my revision for my retake as well. yeah!
And finally after an hour or so, we finally left the class, the only good thing was that the teacher liked my specs, she says it stands out. haha. ok.. fine! then we all head for lunch at the coffeeshop. so me and Dawn bought duck rice and together with our classmates, we went to e void deck to eat, at least we found a place.. the coffeeshop was filled with people wearing SHATEC uniform.. haha..
therefore after lunch, we are having this lesson called Food Service Management. we took at least 10-15 mins finding the damn classroom, and finally when we found it, there were not enough chairs, the air con was confirmed-guaranteed spoilt coz there was no air at all.. imagine, no air con, after lunch, sleepy, teacher's voice can make u sleep(monotonious), how can i survive? as usual, i really cant concentrate coz its like 7 months since i've sat down proper to actually listen to a lecture.. so i was like fidgeting, eating sweets and looking at surroundings as well as talking to my friends asking how was their lunch and stuff.. how i wished it ended at that time!!!
so after 90mins of lesson, it finally ended and then, we had a 15min break before the next lesson start.. it was practical lesson.. so i guess it would be fun, plus the teacher looks fun.. haha.. the teacher was Mr Christopher Loh, he is about 1.5 times my size.. imagine that, those ppl who know me.. haha.. but he's really nice and funny.. when i stood up to intro, he said i had a drastic change, from a warehouse assistant to hotel management, then everyone laughed. haha, whatever. then i said i can meet alot of different ppl, and its interesting(not the ppl but the job scope), then he asked again, whats so interesting? i've never said its interesting, i dont think its interesting. and everyone laughed again.. haha... alrite, we were taught how to actually lay a table cloth professionally, how to change it professionally and it was kinda hands on.. he also taught us how to handle trays with glasses, so kinda fun... lesson ended quite early and at least it was kinda fruitful..
man i'm tired, gonna watch e wc semis later on.. i'll update on e 2nd and 3rd day tmr.. will be fun as well. i hope.

2006-07-03T08:19:00.000-07:00

3 July 2006

oh mygoodness, finally my blog's done, thanks jazreel.. haha.. seriously i donno how to repair this blog, so thanks alot for your help. haha.. its been 2 months plus since i last blogged, damn, sure its long, and i really forgot what has happened this past 2 months plus. Ok, Chelsea re Champions of England, Barcelona beat Arsenal in the champions league finals, er... World Cup fever, kinda bored, my job, my school stuff and i finally got in SHATEC, man i'm so happy that i dont need to serve the country so early in my life, i wanna enjoy first.. so since 30 April, i really forgot what has happened man..

Ok, so i know i signed up for the World cup channel, and to me, its kinda a waste, coz some 3am matches i dont really watch coz i'll be freakin tired by then, some matches are so dull and boring that i fell asleep, and after the round of 16 matches, the rest can be seen on Channel 5!!! so its kinda wasted.. but at least i caught some nice group matches.. so its not so bad

Alright, whats next? ok, joycelyn's birthday is in 35 mins time, and haha, she's this ever "so bad" girl that i donno how to express it.. haha.. happy birthday gurl.. i'm really running outta ideas what to write that i gotta ask my friend, Vanessa, what to write.. haha, thats me; lame!!

Ok now back to studies, i've been skipping night classes for long time already, always go out with my buddies, haha.. have fun during their holidays and mine as well, before i start my school and attachment. so we kinda went to dennis's pool to swim, went karaoke and went town to hang around, and also studied for my maths and poa retake. I'm posted to East Spring Sec, luckily its kinda near my area, that i dont need to travel so far. phoo...

Now i finally remember, Joga Bonito finals, thanks to my captain, Kennth, haha.. he scored 3 goals in 3 games to put us into the finals at the Bedok qualifing games. haha, man that was kinda happy, at least i entered the finals for something, other than TMS Cup. But the bad thing is, there were 99 other teams competing with us. it was ok, didnt really do well, but at least we played well, i can say.

Went MOS the other day, was kinda crowded, with this even named "Rebirth". it was not any special event, just some speed dating stuff, didnt really do much there, cant even drink. Argh, so just danced to the music, and damn, the music's freakin horrible. I spent the night there, dancing, and watching e Brazil vs Australia match. haha kinda not link,watching soccer in club. haha

And finally, i bought my new soccer boots, although its not original, thats the only Adidas boots i can buy with that amount of money i have. kinda happy though, bought it with Mokhsein. hehe. i bought the white-blue predator absolado just hours before training, haha. kinda heart-pain when its all muddy and dirty that day. but was happy that at least i have a pair of boots to wear during soccer. haha.
My team just had a friendly match with Dennis's Detroit Streetz last sunday and we won 6-2. although its not the result that we wanted, we'll definately do better with much much more matches coming up. I gotta work on my goalkeeping man, conceding 2 stupid goals was such a disgrace to my team, but luckily we won the game otherwise my teammates will kill me. argh!! haha..

Alright, wait for my next entry about school which starts today and the orientation last friday.. kinda fun and fruitful too..

KL Trip.. 12th to 14th May 2006

2006-05-14T06:24:00.000-07:00

Phew... just returned after a tiring trip to KL.. wow.. it's been a long journey from there back here.. its also been a fruitful trip for me.. these 3 days was also a great weekend spent over there.

Day 1:

I woke up at 5am in e morning and got ready all my stuffs, packed some last minute stuffs into my bag and set off for the Tuas checkpoint, when we arrived there, it was already around 8am, and it was super packed already.. *wonders wad's the traffic condition over at Woodlands.. sure more jia lat* haha.. ok, nevertheless, we waited for around an hour or so to clear the immigration... then we proceeded to our destination.. i slept in e car for around 2hrs before we reached some place for breakfast.. then continued all the way to KL.. and it took a whole 3hrs to reach there.. wow!!

We checked in to this hotel; Hotel Radius International.. lemme tell u more abt this hotel.. it is definately not the sort of 4/5 star hotel.. it doesnt seem to be as well.. but the fantastic part of this hotel is the facilities... which hotel gives u free internet service everyday? which hotel gives u free alcoholic drinks anytime of the day? for what i've known.. none.. haha.. and this hotel does provide all these.. Immediately, i went to get a Bacardi Sprite.. haha.. then we checked in to the room and damn, it was small but not bad la. *sleep-able* enuff can already.. ok, so we rested for around an hour then set off to Sungei Wang, a shopping centre where ppl can get lost anytime.. haha.. ok.. my motive of going there was to have lunch and to shop.. of cos duh.!! and i need to look for a new pair of specs as i was told to do so by the optician the other day. There i went into shops after shops.. and all the specs were so freakin expensive. then we came into one. GREAT SALE.. i looked for one that suits me. RM168.. i thought it was reasonable, but still a lil bit expensive, so we continued walking. Finally one shop shows " 2 prices, RM 138, Rm 148" ok quite cheap but it wasnt the price that attracts me.. the time was.. 1 hour only to make the specs. wonderful.. immediately i went in and got one specs after long periods of choosing one.. it was a black+white plastic frame. not bad, since i have not got one with plastic frame for a long time.. so no harm rite? hahas.

ok. so we continued to walk around the shopping centre and finally after an hour, my specs were ready.. so i was kinda excited to get my specs, i dont know why also. haha. so after that, we proceeded to Chinatown. Thats the place we always will go when we are in KL.. thats e place to really bargain for stuffs.. haha.. and i got myself a gucci wallet, a watch, and a adidas bag.

then we proceeded back to the hotel. as i said, great facilities rite? haha. so there's free snacks and tim sum as a "welcome meal".. haha. and i took another alcoholic drink and other beverages.. and then went up to e room to watch TV.. all they showed was tennis, F1, tennis, F1.. no football.. ArGh.. but i knew i had to save football for the next day..

Day 2:

I woke up at around 7am.. went down to e swimming pool for a morning swim, the air was really refreshing and the water was cool.. so while i swam, my dad jogged around the swimming pool.. then after that we went to have breakfast downstairs... later we went upstairs to pack our stuff for the day.. and we head out for Genting Highlands.. it took around an hour plus to reach there and its real cooling there.. we took lotsa pictures when we arrived there (will be uploaded in my friendster soon). Then we went to the Theme Park and Arcade to play while my dad went to e casino.... then we went up to the ice-skating area and it was super cold over there(DUH!!!).. and we left there after our dinner at the ever famous MACDONALDS.. hahas...

Then we went to Chinatown again to look for more stuffs, i actually wanted to get a pair of Converse high cut shoes, but just couldnt find my size.. dammit.. so i just settled for a pair of sandals from JukeBox.. and it was around 9pm already.. and it was football time, so i rushed back to the hotel's lounge to watch the match.. when i reached there at ariund 925pm, it was already filled with people although the match is scheduled to start at 10pm.. so i guess they're all football fanatics like me..

Liverpool Vs West Ham for the Fa Cup finals... My team Liverpool went 2-0 down after 30mins, but got one back before halftime to make it 2-1.. Then came the Stevie G show.. he scored a fantastic goal to make it 2-2.. then a stupid tyco goal by Konchesky made it 3-2.. i was so down after that tyco cross went in.. haiz... 90 mins gone... AND GERRARD SCORES AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!.. this was a world class strike.. haha.. so it was 3-3 at e end.. and i can tell all e Liverpool fans were very very relieved... and extratime passed.. finally it was penalty shoot-out time.. and all the good Liverpudians were all subbed-out already.. so it was left to unusual players to take the kicks.... and Reina was the hero for Liverpool after saving 3 penalties to clinch the cup for Liverpool.. They won 3-1 on penalties and it was full entertainment for the past 2 hrs or so.. I was so happy that i couldnt sleep and watched till e celebrations ended at around 1.30am.. then went back to my room to sleep...

WoW!!!!!!!!!... after a long long wait of 1 month, together with hard work, teamwork and patience, Mr Bryan finally hit his car after clearing 30000pv in 2 days.. i really cant believe it and nothing can really hide or express my happiness for him. Our whole group really worked so hard and after sleepless nights, its finally over. haha. But there's still unfinished business for me so i'll still continue to work hard to strive for the big event on friday(5-5-06).

Thanks to Mr Bryan, Mr Chris, Miss Vera, Miss Yvonne, Miss Yolanda, Miss Jieru, Meihui, Michael, Guojie, Jiahao, Jonathan, Vincent and Myself.... =) love ya guys....

Long wait finally over.. haiz..

After all these while of long waitings, finally the results of the poly postings are out. And guess what? I got rejected by all the polys that I've actually appealed. haiz... god dammit. I just dont get it why they dont accept me. I got the requirements, i got the cut off points. Fuck Them!!

Alrite, guess my only choices are:

1) Shatec
2) Private Diploma
3) NS

So I think i decided that I'm going to Shatec for the study 3 days-work 3 days course. I guess thats the only choice to skip NS. haha. I'm a typical Spore teen who wants to skip NS, who loves to go there and suffer for 2 yrs plus? At least let us spend our youth and then go for training later rite? I guess, I'm the only soul here thinking this way.
Now i guess its the most stressful period of my life.. My school's gonna be damn freakin far, my workload is huge, i still gotta retake my Maths and Poa which freakin hell, i havent even touched it yet. Haiz.... wad am i gonna do man?

But... on the brighter side, today's Joga Bonito tournament.. our team won 3 games.. haha. thats pretty impressive for "our standard".. coz obviously, ppl think that we're the underdogs. so i hope we can qualify for the finals and join our another group of friends, but the likelihood of it is gonna be low. Haha..

I'm back!!! Finally!!!

2006-04-01T10:23:00.000-08:00

Oh yes. I'm finally back to blogger. God dammit, i'm so freakin busy these few days that i cant even remember my freakin password to my account, luckily i wrote it down in some book. Goodness me, i seriously dont remember when was my last post, guess its been around 2 weeks. haha. Ok, i've been busy with work, my studies, night classes and stuff to neglect all my buddies around me these few days. yups.

Now i got a freakin serious problem which i'm not so freakin happy with it. Bloody hell, last monday i woke up so freakin early to call up TP, NP, NYP, SP and RP(all the freakin polys) to check my appeal status. ok, so here i am, eagerly waiting for them to pick up my phone call. Then there it was.. i was told that TP would give me an answer by last friday... i got two words for that; FUCK THAT!!.. i dont even receive any letter or email from them at all. argh!!! (cmon, at least give me a REJECT letter rite?).. and the other polys told me they would have my results by the 10th April, which i certainly hope i will receive it soon.

I've been spending the last two days tidying up my room and i can tell you, its been a real tough job. First, i wanna get rid of all the used papers from my cupboard, and what i need to do is to shift my cupboard in a way that i can feel comfortable dealing with all the stuffs inside. and when i tried to shift the freakin heavy cupboard.. guess what? it toppled upside down.. thats not the worst part, the worst part was... my parents were all asleep and nobody can help me turn the cupboard around. and so.. i gotta wait for the next morning for my dad to wake up and help me with it. That night, i've set my heart out to stay up till 3am to clear my freakin cupboard. so i took out this whole stack of papers, which i think there might be around 1000 pieces of papers in there. there i flipped and flipped, threw and threw all the unwanted papers. Next was time to clear my CD rack. Okay, thats sounds easy.. but... what am i gonna do with it in the first place? so.. as i was so hardworking, and i dont know what to do with it, but i'm still hardworking, i took out all the Cds that i have, and arrange them in alphabetical order by the names of the singer/band, it took me around an hour becoz humans are bound to make mistakes and somehow or rather, i kinda forgotten my ABCs. haha.. ok, jokes aside..

I just gotten my Yearbook a few days ago.. as u know, once we get our yearbook, we will all get excited. So the first thing i did was to flip to the best class ever, 5U.. i was certainly impressed by the way the girls of my class did the page beside my class photo, pictures of our teachers, our football team(just after the TMS Cup finals), racial harmony pictures, picture taken 2 years ago at dennis's birthday party, teachers day picture(i'm e one with e shades haha) and some individual pictures of some of us which i really cant remember when i took it. After that, i flipped thru the whole yearbook and i can say that its quite nice. As i browsed thru the pictures of everyone, i realised some of them, i didnt even know they existed in our school, surprisingly true.

But once i flipped to the last page, which shows our class photo (5U). i cant help but to look over and over again as we shared 5 years of memories together as a class and its really saddening that its ended so fast(ppl reading my blog, pls dont cry.. haha, this is suppossed to be a Happy Blog).

Taufik- I dream

In my mind, I can climb
All the mountains that surround me
My spirits there were eagles dare to fly
In my heart, there's a spark, that can light the whole world around me
An open door where I am sure dreams are

It doesnt matter if i win
Or the colour of my skin
Cos the race is all about believing in yourself

I dream I can run
Like the wind and be strong
When my heart just wants to give in
I dream I can be
The hero thats in me
When I dream, I dream

There's a time, in your life
When the odds are so against you
There's no defeat if all you keep is pride
First or last, slow or fast, there's a dignity that makes you
Keep driving on when worlds have come apart

It doesnt matter rich or poor
Or the things you've done before
Cos the race is all about believing in yourself

I dream I can run
Like the wind and be strong
When my heart just wants to give in
I dream I can be
The hero thats in me
When I dream

I dream

Of a moment
That forever will be golden
When the torch is passed, only dreams will last
That are shared by everyone

I dream I can run
Like the wind and be strong
When my heart just wants to give in
I dream I can be
The hero thats in me
I dream... I dream....

Wooooooooooo......

I dream......

Remember The Name - Fort Minor

You ready?! Lets go!Yeah, for those of you that want to know what we're all about. It's like this y'all (c'mon!)[Chorus]This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill, Fifteen percent concentrated power of will, Five percent pleasure, fifty percent painAnd a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

Mike! - He doesn't need his name up in lights. He just wants to be heard whether it's the beat or the mic. He feels so unlike everybody else, alone. In spite of the fact that some people still think that they know him. But fuck em, he knows the code. It's not about the salary. It's all about reality and making some noise. Makin the story - makin sure his clique stays up. That means when he puts it down Tak's pickin it up! let's go!

Who the hell is he anyway?He never really talks muchNever concerned with status but still leavin them star struckHumbled through opportunities given to him despite the factThat many misjudge him because he makes a livin from writin rapsPut it together himself, now the picture connectsNever askin for someone's help, to get some respectHe's only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reachAnd now when it all unfolds, the skill of an artist.

It's just twenty percent skillEighty percent fearBe one hundred percent clear cause Ryu is illWho would've thought that he'd be the one to set the west in flamesAnd I heard him wreckin with The Crystal Method, "Name Of The Game"Came back dropped Megadef, took em to churchI like bleach man, why you have the stupidest verse?This dude is the truth, now everybody be givin him guest spotsHis stock's through the roof I heard he fuckin with S. Dot!

[Chorus]

They call him Ryu The SickAnd he's spittin fire with MikeGot him out the dryer he's hotFound him in Fort Minor with TakBeen a fuckin annihilist porcupineHe's a prick, he's a cockThe type woman want to be with, and rappers hope he get shotEight years in the makin, patiently waitin to blowNow the record with Shinoda's takin over the globeHe's got a partner in crime, his shit is equally dopeYou wont believe the kind of shit that comes out of this kid's throat

Tak! - He's not your everyday on the blockHe knows how to work with what he's gotMakin his way to the topPeople think its a common owners namePeople keep askin him was it given at birthOr does it stand for an acronym?No he's livin proof, Got him rockin the boothHe'll get you buzzin quicker than a shot of vodka with juiceHim and his crew are known around as one of the bestDedicated to what they doin give a hundred percent.

Forget Mike - Nobody really knows how or why he works so hardIt seems like he's never got timeBecause he writes every note and he writes every lineAnd I've seen him at work when that light goes on in his mindIt's like a design is written in his head every timeBefore he even touches a key or speaks in a rhymeAnd those motherfuckers he runs with, those kids that he signed?Ridiculous, without even trying, how do they do it?![

Chorus - repeat 2x][Outro - Mike Shinoda]Yeah! Fort MinorM. Shinoda - Styles of Beyond

Ryu! Takbir! Machine Shop!

Alright, the lyrics to my current favourite song.. yeah, love Fort Minor alot... just missed their concert a few days back, but if they ever gonna come down again, NO WAY i'm gonna miss them. Hehe..

rather ordinary day for me today. went suntec with ast for lunch and walk around town after that. then we decided to play football.. i really suck at it nowadays... haiz... i'm still worrying about my DAE and hope it will be a good outcome for me., Dont wanna serve the army so quickly. wanna enjoy youth first, wah.... worry this, worry that!!!
