My term test time table is out. Afternoon papers.

Engineering Mathematics 1 ------ 4 Jun 07 (Mon)

Circuit Analysis ------- 5 Jun 07 (Tue)

Digital Fundamentals 1 -------- 6 Jun 07 (Wed)

Less than 2 weeks to term test. So many stuffs to catch up. I'm trying my best and I can't give up. Lost in nowhere. My mind is not functioning in many ways and i get a big headache when I touch my books. Beyond my tired eyes..

2007-05-20T23:35:00.001+08:00

NOT IN A GOOD MOOD.

2007-05-18T23:53:00.000+08:00

It's Friday and I love Fridays. Have been sleeping for 3-4 hours everyday.

I've read the recent newspaper article that the number of death in Japan is increasing due to overwork and lack of sleep.

Well, just a quick update. This 2 weeks is quiz week. Grade weightage is 10%. 2 weeks from now will be Term Test. Time flies. I'm worrying for Maths 1 especially matrices topic. USING GAUSSIAN ELIMINATION IN INVERSE MATRICES for 3 x 3 matrices. Adjoints in inverse 3x3 matrices is okay for me.

When we were in secondary school, all of us were like a 'black horse' in mathematics, doing well. I've got 6 days to create miracle. Gotta maximize my time well.

Today was Campus Care Network (CCN) Day! An event which students will raise funds for the needy people. It was lively. Haha. Lotsa hyper people. We didn't stay for long though. Went home and sleep!

During Practical

Practical lab.

WRTORL quiz. Memorized 4 pages of my draft work the night before. :(

for every donation made, you'll get a balloon.

This is me. Very true. :)

Life as an ESFJ (Extravert, Sensor, Feeler, Judger)

People of this type tend to be: active, friendly, and energetic; outgoing, affectionate, and talkative; concerned about others and careful to be polite and cooperative; realistic, literal, and conscientious; highly sensitive and easily hurt; organized, responsible, and conventional.
The most important thing to ESFJs is their relationships and helping people in real, and practical ways.

Lesson starts at 10 but I'm already in school at 9. Took 27 express bus to school. To kill time, I explored around the school myself. Found some really nice places. Of course, it's melvyn's secret. :)

Had practical lab today. We have a very nice and funny lecturer. Very crappy and interesting lecturer which enabled us to communicate casually. Well, created havoc in the lab. While listening to the briefing, I decided to create some self-entertainment. Connected the aligator clip to the 1.2k ohm resistor then adjusted the voltage knob on the power supply to the max, switch it on and my resistor blown! Smoke starts to come out from the resistor immediately and the whole lab had a burning smell. Both partners seated beside me was laughing and laughing away.

Later, while working with a variable resistor and a LED. I did the same thing again. Turn the variable resistor knob to the minimum resistance and the voltage from the power supply to the max then switch on. It lighted up from Green, to orange, to red then PAAUT! It blown and the smoke came out. Haha.

Am sick. Sigh. Terrible cough and flu. Went straight home and slept right after school. Woke up and finished off my study and assignments. My family will be going overseas tonight. Leaving me home alone till this Sunday. :(

2007-05-03T23:46:00.000+08:00

Everyday is a tiring day. Study and study and study.

Next week, all ITE students in the engineering school will be having extra mathematics lesson from every Wednesday and Friday. 3 hours! Maths rocks. Well. On Matrices chapter now. 3 x 3 and 2 x 2 determinant are easy but dislike gaussian elimination! Tried using the whole number technic but ended up with all the decimals. Haiyo. Fainted* Having a maths test tomorrow! And writing and oral, effcom, digital fundamentals and circuit analysis work and study to be completed over the weekend. Burning my weekend again. :(

engineering drawing!

SEE! BOYS school. -.-

2007-04-30T23:35:00.000+08:00

Went to school with my whole body aching after yesterday's badminton with my friends. I guess school was quite alright. Maths was okay, on 3 x 3 gaussian elimination. Kinda used to the speed lecturing and got the hang of the 'ferrari's maths lesson in LT52'. Able to cope I guess. (I HOPE!) The same routine after school - study gaussian elimination at the library with my classmates. I think it's time to start some nonsense in school. Haha. Else it gonna be damm bored for the rest of the 3 years. Oh ya, a SIA engineer can bring home a monthly income of $60, 000. (:

HOLIDAY FOR TOMORROW! WOOHOO.

2007-04-26T22:43:00.000+08:00

Everyday I've been using my notebook lesser and lesser. Spending my time revising all the lectures and practice engineering mathematics when i reached home. Maths is getting better i think, but still not as good. To excel in mathematics requires a lot of practices.

Hetic life; rushing up and down. The blocks are so far away. Lesson starts on the dot. One of the rules in TP is that we cannot be late not more than 15mins. Well. Ended our Maths1 at 13.03 at block 25,5th floor and we have to made our way down to block 19, 1st floor, LT54. So imagine the time spent on walking is approx 10mins. By the time we reach the lecture threatre, they have already started and we gotta settle down quickly and try to catch up. God bless me.

Okay. TP CCA recruitment day. I signed up for concert band, outdoor adventures, canoe polo and wakeboarding. It's hard to decide. Perhaps wakeboarding. Quantity and quality matters a lot. Haha.

CCA recruitment fair

2007-04-24T00:43:00.000+08:00

Went to school early in the morning to study Maths in the library till 10am and went up for lessons. Dead tired. Back home, had my dinner and off to study maths till 11pm. Ended up with a headache. Target is to stablize the precalculus maths, from now to the term test. Otherwise, Maths 2 and Maths 3, I gonna die. Hais. Trying my best to manage my studies well. 3-star kayaking will be starting next month. I don't know if i will be going.

My changed of study field; from a sophisticated technology to holding a soldering iron and autocad. Well, this is the only path for me to get into aerospace engineering in the second year. Limited seats - 90 / 300. Fighting hard for it.

Dull and low-spirited. :( I'm drowning.

They say getting into poly feels like heaven but I say getting into poly feels like a hell. Well. Digital Fundamentals was quite okay but MATHS has caused me the biggest headache. STRESS. For someone like me who didn't touch maths for 2 years. I've completely lost touch of it. I don't remember a single thing except equations, quadratic formula and quadratic polynomial. I was totally blur on the spot and trying my best to absorb. The lecturer teaches very very fast. As fast as a speed of lightning. Heh. Just an hour of lecture able to cover one chapter. It's not E maths or A maths but a mix of A maths and C maths. i lost all the basics. I need help. Really in need of help.

Hais.

Anyway, i can face every challenges and weather every storm. I believe i can! Chiong arh. Got to go and study. BYE!

Digital Fundamentals

40mins of talking craps; 20mins to complete a chapter.

2007-04-20T00:14:00.000+08:00

WELL! Orientation just ended. Really really fun. School song is in sign language and i usually screw up it somehow. Always have the tendency to make a vulgar sign instead of 'Temasek' handsign. ACCIDENTALLY OKAY. Cos it really look alike. ha.

Okay. today is the most fun of all. TP have this annual 'Regatta' event at bedok reservior, which is just behind the school. Whereby all the 5 schools have some telematch games, cheer compeition, dance and dragon boat race. It first started in the school sports complex. Everyone is really cheering, create lotsa flags and bring their barang barang! Can really feel the 'QI FEN'. The spirit, bond and how lively the school is. Wooooohoo. All the muslims students in the engineering school are really crazy and hyper hyper. This muslim guy with a pair of clutches. During the cheer of the telematch, he even stood up, cheer and raise his clutches in the air. Hahaha! *salute* Really fun la. Wherever you go. You see any group of students from other schools. The moment u just shout say. 'BUSINESS OEEEEEI!' and they will reply OEEEEEEEEEEEEEEI! Hahaa. The tradition arh. Looking forward to all my days in TP.

People out there, join TP okay?!

Hip-Hop and Dance bashing at the end of the orientation

2007-04-19T22:26:00.000+08:00

fun and more fun in TP. Very fun and lively!

watch the video and you will know. Please wait patiently for the video to load! (:

2007-04-18T20:37:00.000+08:00

worn off.

First day of orientation. Became the ikan baru (new fishes) in the school. MTN engineering doesn't have much girls. Disappointed. My class, M710 has 18 students. 16/18 are guys. -.-" One of my female classmates was my p2 classmate in Peiying Primary!

Well. I guess my class is the most matured as compare to the other 13 classes. It is made up of foreigners, some ORD NS personel and mostly ITE students. Very few from JAE intake. Quite good though, least we have our own common topic to talk about. The bad side is, it gonna be a tough competition to get up to Aerospace in year 2. CHIONG arh!

Well. School of Engineering is the most crazy crackpot in TP. Hahaha. Went through some cheers, the school song in sign language (it's their tradition) and TP mass dance!

one of the crazy cheers...

school of engineering,
power power super chantik (nice)

school of engineering,
gelek gelek all gelek

school of engineering,
gila gila sibei gila (crazy)

We the engineers, HEY HEY.
We gonna trash the rest.

*now the teasing part of other school*

you have flavors (air conditioned cafeteria in School of IT)
we have 2 canteen.

you have a lotsa chio bu (referring to school of business)
we have lotsa yan daos (handsome)

you have drawing boards (referring to School of Design)
we have autocad.

We the engineers hey hey!
We have our CARONA (engineering school famous chickenrice stall)

We the engineers hey hey!
We have our CARONA.

Chicken rice for you?!

Every little moment we spent along our journey of life, stitches beautifully from one to another like a photo slideshow. Every event happened were so vivid, when we reminisce. People intersect our life; some will just walk in and out like a passer-by, whereas some will leave foot prints in our hearts. Whichever it is, I guess this is an arrangement of fate to bring all of us, to know each other from all kinds of route and naturally became fellow friends. With the power of friendship, as we go on, we learn all kinds of priceless valuable life lessons such as, overcoming obstacles, spending time in nurturing our friendship with one another.

As for me, I've make many friends, ranges from juniors to working adults and businessmen. Through them, I've learn to put myself in others' perception in order see things well as a 3rd person's view. Of course, I'm not a perfect person. I'm still learning from all the elders and youngsters about their life experiences and all things they have gone through, both good and bad things. Everything is a cycle; learning from one another. Above all, I guess ego plays a very important part. Be it with the younger or the elder, one has to really balance their ego well in order to click well; communicate and work effectively, in my point of view. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

This post is dedicated to all our juniors of Nan Chiau Wind Orchestra, especially the graduating secondary 4.

As a senior, it is really great and heart warming to see each of you grown up, nurturing from a primary school leaving kid into growing teenagers. Looking at the blur faces of you all when being a recruit to the band when I was Sec 4, and some teachings on getting started with the instrument during sectionals. And now, I’m really glad that all of you sounded great. Watching and knowing each of you throughout your secondary school life, has been a pleasure in my life. Of course, all of you get to see me grow even older. Fellow juniors, here I wish all of you good luck and study hard for your examinations.

ZONK-ED

Went night cycling yesterday. Duration from 10pm - 6.30am. Met at East Coast Park, MacDonalds. Quite a big group of people. Around 30. So we were spilt into 3 groups. Pick up our bicycles, and cycled to Tanjong Rhu, National Stadium, Esplanade and pit-stop at Lau Pa Sat for our supper. EH. Along our journey, there's no street lights and I almost 'langa' into a bangladesh. Hahaha. Hard to see at night la. =x

After having our supper, we head down to Marina Pier. Halfway through, it RAINED! ARRH. BAD BAD. But we cycled under the rain until we reach that destination. Woah i'm very surprise that the ladies in our group can ride very fast. *salute!* So yea, waited for the rain to stop and off we head down to the Paliament house to meet up with the other groups. Over there, my friends and I are just trying to create some pranks with the motorist. Hiding at a corner, pretend to be a speed camera and it really caught the attention of some speed motorist. they immediately slowed down upon the flash. HAHAH!

Okay then. Headed back to East Coast Park from there. I feel so guilty. Ha. Made my friends fell down. Taught him some bicycle stunt, he tried it but fell down. Haiyo. Okay, back at East Coast Park, dawn is breaking. Returned the bicycle back and my friend drove us (sengkang khakis) home. GOOD RIGHT? Hahaha.

WAIT. IT'S NOT ENDED YET!

Reached home at 7+, wash up and slept till 12noon. Then off to met my high school juniors for a band concert by Mus't Art. Tiring but it i'm strong to survive urh. Went down to Marina Sqaure for our lunch then headed to Suntec. Everything was fun la. Hope to have more of this kinda outings. Walked down to Dhoby Ghaut to take the NEL back home, talking about the NCWO in the past. Overall for today = fun fun fun fun fun!

First pit stop at the National Indoor Stadium.

Tanjong Rhu; my favourite place

Stubborn and Immature

These are the 2 words which I don't tolerate much in my life principles.

You talk to me about this topic and I am giving points concerning your topic.

I can clearly see that you just simply want the final say for the things you think is right, and get satisfied when you got what you want.

Then what's the point of asking of others for general comments and point of view in the first place?

The talking about 'having an open mind in a discussion' comes into the picture above all, from the book of "The Purpose Driven of Management".

2007-04-08T20:42:00.000+08:00

HEYA! I've changed my phone and I didn't pay a single cent for it. Made a profit for it. My previous phone was back to normal on that Saturday. So I quickly flip the newspaper and saw some deals. Upgraded my plan and sold my handphone away.

I know this phone is kinda common la. But it's the user who makes the phone not common. HEEEE. =P

Kayak out of Singapore today. Choppy sea and strong current. Challenging. Arms are aching. My friend capsized in the middle of the sea and I have to turn back to rescue him. The other friend, tried smoking in the middle of the sea but couldn't light up his ciggarette! Haha. Fell asleep in the bus. But this kid, seated 2 seats in front of me, woke me up by his shoutings in the bus. He was shouting at his mom. Spoilt brat. Hence, listening to his quarrels throughout the journey. Shouting and hitting his mother like nobody's business. Not respecting his mother at all. I feel sorry for the mother.

haha. Doing our 3-star kayaking in May.

2007-04-07T01:18:00.000+08:00

HAIYO. Why did my phone go GAGA-KUKU at this point of time? All my contacts and informations are stuck inside. Keypad problem. ARGH.

I don't wanna change my phone. It was 3 years old. My warrenty has ended long ago. Will be sending it for repair and if it gonna cost more than $150, I might as well sign a new existing contract as my plan has already ended last year. All along, I've been waiting for F700 to be out. Jeopardise my plan. RAH.

Anyway, I'm making my braces soon. Heh. Going for my first appointment next week.

2007-04-04T01:24:00.000+08:00

The making of this blog banner. Techniques were quite simple though. Using both Macromedia Flash 8 and Adobe Photoshop CS 2 to produce this. :)

I love this game, Battlefield 2. It will be great for Counterstrike(CS) gamer. Modern warfare. Here are some screenshots. I must be crazy though. Using my notebook to play this kinda game. Indeed it's true. Widescreen 16:9, can see more enemies. Heh!

You can even chiong-sua!

Fly a helicopter for air-air, air-ground battle!

Fly a fighter jet plane! (I'll kamakazi - [suicide crash] on
a bunch of enemies when I'm about to lose!)

Drive various tank or other gulf war vehicles for battle too!

2007-03-30T23:02:00.000+08:00

Well. I get my bicycle down for service. Adjusting the de-railer and re-aligned the gears. I've changed a new set of tyres. Costing me $84! This tyre model, Cross Mark is both for rocky terrian and road. Reducing the bumps, giving the rider a very smooth and gentle ride. Feel free to try! :) BUT! after realigning the gear, my fireshifter is still giving problem (still can be used). Wanted to change but almost fainted when i heard the price. As my fireshifter and V brake is in one set. I have to change both. $50+$60=$110! Sigh. Perhaps next time..

That's my 3 years old 'Diamondback Response' wife.

2007-03-29T01:18:00.000+08:00

Well. Settled my NS deferment at CMPB, Redhill. Travel down to Outram Park to collect my medical report, then down to Bugis to meet my classmate Terence. Later went down to Raffles Place to meet our classmates and chill out at our usual hangout. Catch up with each other and stuffs. Oh yea, Mr. Bean's Holiday is nice! I laughed off my seat. =P

smuggling drinks into the threatre!

Mr Bean's Holidays

2007-03-26T01:13:00.000+08:00

I resigned from my job and today is the end of the fair. I made many friends again. Aunties, china nationals, some poly students and an indian boy whom is working in an aviation company. Sharing some aviaiton qualifications and job experiences. I'm dead tired. This auntie always like to trick me. Basket. In return, i tricked her back and kept imitating her laugher (hur hur hur hur hur *staccato with crescendo dynamics* haha!

Over the 2 weeks, my weight increased by 4 kg! I'm not skinny. I'm getting fitter. Really. It's time for me to get some shape now. - 'even ah beng see my muscle, they start to shit in their pants arh.' Heh.

I took this 'first class SBS bus' on my way home. I was kinda surprise when I board the bus. A long stretch of white sofa, dark red ambience, false ceiling and they even have a bar counter and bar stool! Very cosy feeling. Enjoyed my ride home throughout the journey. I sat with a posture of my usual way of seating. Stretch and place my left hand out on top of the sofa with my leg crossed and listening to mama mia musical songs through my ear piece. Enjoying life ar.

cosy feeling!

100% WOW factor!

2 thumbs up* bus!

2007-03-23T02:14:00.000+08:00

I'm over-worked. Working 13 hours a day, non-stop in a week. I don't want to work. Stupid me made a promise to my boss that 'it shouldn't be a problem' when she asked me if i want to work for the fair. This coming Sunday gonna be my last day of work. All these days, I've keep dragging myself to work. I'm tired. Super tired. I need a very good rest. Following on Monday, I've to go down to CMPB to settle my NS deferment and full medical report for the poly enrolment. Tuesday, going down to TP to settle another grave problem. That is their typo error. All the documents that i received. They spelled my surname, Leong as Yeong. Every documents i received has that 'Yeong' surname. Why not they type it as 'Tong'? Better still. *laugh. With that Yeong, how am I gonna apply for tuition grant and approval of CPF? The dateline are drawing nearer. 30th March. I need to tolerate with my remaining energy to settle all these before I can really take a good rest.

Looking at this kid's shoe. It reminds me of how my parents took care of me and what I am when i was in primary school. Very small size. I can imagine what I am when I was young. I don't even know how to tie a shoe lace then. So i usually wear strap-on shoes when I was Primary 1 and 2. Started wearing lace shoe when I was primary 3, but i don't not how to tie a lace. My sister or my parents have to tie for me before going to school and during school, when my shoe lace came out, I need others to tie for me. Including the teachers and seniors. Slowly, my sister taught me how to tie a shoe lace using the "bunny ears" method. Funny to know that I was once like a blur blur kuku at that time right?

So many unforgettable memories left in Peiying Primary School when I was transferred out. All my best friends and classmates were gone. I can't even find them now. My chinese E-class partner was gone too. I wonder where they are. I lost the telephone contacts when I shifted house. Sigh~ Years later, I returned back to Peiying Primary School as a high school student. Everything were gone. It look like as if it is a new school. New building extension where the car park used to be, fitness corner, stone chairs, singapore murals painting at the nearest stairway to the hall, my A class and, the spot where I fell down while running and bleed terribly on my left knee and a primary 3 senior helped me. The place which I used to catch spiders with my friends. Every bits of it were no longer around. If only I get to study in Peiying for 6 years. Probably I don't have to go through all the shit in high school too, if I can turn the time back to 1995.

I need a good break. Anyone wants to join me? I love this kind of place; so vivid and serene. A true place of relaxation. It will be great if I can jet ski, kayak and powerboat on this clear water. So many things buried inside me.

2007-03-19T02:00:00.000+08:00

It seems that I am always the one who receives all the blame and scoldings even for the smallest problem. Kick a fuss out of it. The situation is really simple and stupid. Lord, please take me with you to heaven at the end of time. I am always seen as a problem-less person, on the outside. The inside of me, I have always been living in this cold world. Who can I turn to? no one. I am bearing everything within me.

2007-03-17T01:22:00.000+08:00

Went to meet up with my classmates, Simon and Terence in town. There's always some common topic for us to talk and gossip about. We did some shoppings too. We wanted to catch a movie initially but doesn't know what to watch. I suggested a M18 movie but we doesn't know what is show logline all about. (Bottom line is to do a little research before u're going out for a movie.) I guess i fell in love with RED. I love red. My favourite colors for top is either white, red or dark red. But i usually dress really really simple when i'm in town or smth. Unless i'm going for dining or other events. That's me! Settled down for dinner at our usual 'lau di fang'. Well, talking about our goals. For me, it is the air force and to get up to the rank of Brigadier General, at least a Lieutenant. I love aviation. ;)

LOL! EXPRESSIVO.

2007-03-16T15:55:00.000+08:00

My list of things to be achieve but i don't have the capital. :'( I hope we will get our scholarship this year again. HEH. --> $1,200 + my bangla pay $720. Able to cover 2, 3 and 4. For 1, I'm trying to talk to my mother about it. Least i'm not spending on useless, unnecessary stuffs.

1. Braces

2. Driving practical lessons and booking of TP exam

3. Powerboating, speedboat license.

4. 3 star kayaking proficiency

BAND CAMP!

2007-03-14T01:57:00.000+08:00

Back from my high school band camp. It was really fun and enjoyable. I hope all of us have learn smething through all the problems we encountered and overcome during these 2 days overnight band camp. Well, although it wasn't very 'productive' and 'progressive' during the camp. I guess all of us enjoyed ourselves. The games committee had done a great job. I enjoyed the amazing race and the clarinet section, got FIRST place! Thanks to yun jie and all the co-operating clarinet section members. ;)

As NCWO has around 12guys, the girls conquered the guys toilet for both their showering and brushing teeths. During the night before we turned in, I entered into the guys toilet to brush my teeth and was shock to see so many 'guys' brushing teeth. LOL! Well, I spent my night in school. This time, the luxury wasn't was good as 2003. - slept in the air-conditioned bandroom. Spent my night in the school hall! The floor is hard, and the weather is cold. Initially, the bandpie and us gonna combined our sleeping space but got separated by Mdm yeo. The sleeping bag did not help by cushioning us so Jason and me decided to get 7 chairs as our bed with the sleeping bag on it. I couldnt get to sleep either. Only to fall asleep at 3.30am and woke up at 4.44am. Feeling very sleepy and tired throughout.

Back in the bandroom, i was sitted at the saxophone section. Both Jolene and Eloise are really funny people. Hahaha. Had dinner at compasspoint, yoshinoya with the bandmembers and went to ponggol to 'chill' with some of them. LOL! 'Chill'

Well anyway, to all soloist and those playing the accompliment parts. Please work hard and don't give up. 25 more days to SYF. I believe all of you can do it. :)

Band practice

Amazing Race.

clarinet! section photo during amazing race. We won!

Too hard, too cold. Cannot sleep la.

Getting back to work. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

2007-03-11T10:09:00.000+08:00

Today was the 8km expedition. Kayak from Changi Point to Pasir Ris Fisherman villiage. It was kinda fast and easy as the current is pushing us along but going back to changi was a hell. The wind direction, the current and choppy water were against us. Got to compensate it with a lot of strength. The salty sea water kept splashing against the bow of the kayak and sprinkle our face. Basket. Aching arms.

We finally made it back. Had a quick break, then had another training later. This training was held at the 'Sai Zui' (sewage water) canel where all the discharged sewage and the bumboats are. The instructors says that it is good for practicing as there is no current and wave. Before we even go down to the 'sai zui'. The odour is like so "yucks" and this training is about High brace and Low brace (pressing on the water for recovery when u gonna capsize!) *hit head* Well, if u capsized in that 'sai zui', good luck to you. Luckily i didnt capsize la! But 3 of my friends did. As we have to tilt to the side at about 45-60 degrees then use the paddle to punch on the water for recovery; to avoid capsize. Some of my friends did not react in time and they capsized! We were like 'oh no. who capsize?' laughing and teasing them about how does the taste like. LOL!

At the end of the day, we sabotage this guy. Kayak around him and pull his spray cover out, then fill his kayak with 'sai zui' till his kayak sink downwards and it looks like a half-submerged submarine! As he struggle to kayak back to the entrace, he loses control and capsized! =P

This place is aka, 'Sai Zui'.

Some photographs taken in last year band concert. Try to spot me. It's really easy to spot. LOL. Please click on the images for larger view yea. ;)

My cousin is playing part-time with his friends in a funeral band. Can earn up to $50/per funeral. I'm considering..

My house shake! Tremours felt in singapore from after an eathquake measuring 6.6 on the Richter Scale struck in Sumatra, Indonesia. I was eating my Dai Pao when the tremours struck.

My reaction was like WTF, felt the tremours on the ground and saw my windchime and I felt my house swaying slightly left to right, with the dai bao in my mouth!

It was my first time encountering such effect.

First day of 2 star kayak proficiency. Have a bit of problem controlling the dancer as it is flat and has no fin lines, fairly buoyant, and very sensitive to currents and turnings. The capsized drill has one more extra step than 1 star. I always cannot find for the emergency hook during capsized! Stuck under water for some time, trying to find for the hook to open the cover in order to free myself out of the capsized kayak. Haha. Well it is challenging but the weather wasn't our favour and I got stung by jellyfish. :(

AND SO!

My notebook was sent to HP service centre at Alexandra Rd. It's a one year warrenty but sad to say that software warrenty will only cover for 3 months upon purchasing. :( I hope my problem isn't software issue!

Well, went to my friend's house and played PS2! LOL! Played my favourite game - Need for Speed Most Wanted and Grand Thef Auto(Liberial City). Guys are like this; Gamers! But i'm not a hardcore gamer la.

GTA is about creating havocs in the streets and some mission based games. Kinda CRAZY though. Eg. Steal a vehicle, violence (whacking and shooting civilians along the streets), creating explosion, mess up with the police and fire department and many more!

And Need for Speed racing games which i think it helps to train a lot in terms of IQ and decision making! Really. Racing at fast speed, avoiding the traffics and running away from the police chases, dodging roadblocks and stuffs.

there goes my notebook..

2007-02-25T20:21:00.000+08:00

Went for kayaking practice again. Sun burnt on my face! The sun is really intense, calm waters but jelly fish season. Saw some jelly fishes while kayaking. Made new friends again as they were from the new comers for 1 star course, joining us for 2 star next sunday.

break time with some new friends.

Random group photo. Not the actual group though. 21 members in total.

I love books! Currently reading this book, Left Behind. It's nice! :)

Left Behind: a Novel of the Earth's Last Days is a best selling novel by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins that started the Left Behind series dealing with Evangelical Christian eschatology view of the end times. Taking as its premise a Rapture which takes from the Earth all believers in Jesus Christ, the story follows those who are not taken and experience the dramatic events as Antichrist nears.

Big headache! How can it be?

Initially, my Internet Explorer encounters problem, I uninstalled and installed IE back. And I still faces the same problem. After i reformatted my machine, the IE is doing fine but what on earth is happening for my harddisk storage? I did numourous disk clean ups, uninstalled all those unnecessary programs, check my local disk drives and I left with 16.9GB out of 100GB! AND IT IS WITH ZERO DATAs in it! Where is the remaining 80.2GB of space gone to?

And here is my -.-" adventure trip to HP service centre. Before I set off from my house to the nearest HP service centre to my house. I checked on the Singapore HP website and it stated a service centre at Tampines CPF Building, #01-04. When I reach the place, combed for the whole of first floor and found out that #01-04 belongs to KFC! Argh!

2007-02-22T01:04:00.000+08:00

Just surfing the net and yea, these are my favouite cars. Hahaa. Audi RS4! 0-100km in 4.8seconds with this responsive V8 FSI engine and excellent handling. Burn out those ah bengs!

'Zheng my datsun'! Tada! Hey this datsun is really solid okay. Hardcore. My uncle's saab, it's boot was totally smash like milo tin can in a rear-collision whilst the datsun was just slightly damage.

I love this! Samsung F700 PDA phone. Preferably a phone with GPS and said to be an iphone killer, in other words, a strong competitor for Apple's lastest iphone.

2007-02-21T00:12:00.000+08:00

Well. Today is my last day of work. Know why? Hahaha. Sales no good. So I 'balik kampong' (get out) together with the stocks. Funny huh. But anyway, I've made lotsa grea friends. Like, when i got nothing to do, I'll go over to the men's wear section and find some crappy promoters to crap about. Asking him to show me some MAGIC tricks. AMAZING! I was holding his $5 note and he exchanged it with a $2 note infront my own eyes and my own hand! I'm clueless. TOTALLY CLUELESS! Later he showed me another lame trick; Changing of ring with a different finger. I almost catch his tricks then he don't wanna show again. Hahaha. What the hell. And quote to me "magic is about leaving the audiences in suspense. -______________-

Anyway, i worked overtime and was the last staff to leave! Doing 'solo' today. No one was around. So have to clear up my stocks in the storeroom, arrange it in order, bundle it in sets of 5, fill up the return consignment forms and tabulate the total number of quantity and still gotta serve the customers. Serving the customers most of the time that I didn't manage to do my stuffs. Very very busy. Am very very tired now! It is always when i get to know lotsa friends, i have to leave. :(

Alright, some photos. Gotta wake up early and get back the storeroom to finish the rest of the work at 8am! Urgh..... not enough sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep = i'm a hero eh.

On my way to work. 'This uncle eh, Terror ar'

I'll carry a stack of 7 boxes

Gotta clear all these stocks! Bangla ar!

2007-02-20T02:26:00.000+08:00

Really gambled. and the minimum amount is $1. I was able to click with my sister's friends! haha. A bunch of friendly and crappy people + me = noisy!

Laughing like crazy and shouting non stop as we play along, similar to those underground gambling den. Hahaha. I'm like drinking and drinking plain water non-stop! Felt so hot as we laugh like crazy. This guy is so lucky. He is the banker and he won like $30+. I won $8! haha. When my mom came home, we asked her to join along too! She's really funny and crappy. All these while, I didn't know that she is very sociable.

Played till 1+am then my sis and i sent them home. One of them is currently working in the airforce. So yea, at the same time, got to know more info. :) Anyway, Happy 3rd CNY to all!

Oranges and water for luck!

2007-02-17T00:31:00.000+08:00

Anyway anyway, happy CNY to all. i'm tired.

2007-02-16T01:03:00.000+08:00

One more week and I gonna get out of Raffles City. Cannot stand this selfish fark. I'm selling the brand of Aiuti and Josel Seibel and I am not a promoter of Clarke, Renoma, Obermain and Hush Puppies.

Yet, you jolly well hide yourself in the store to do your so called 'stock-take' and I'm out there serving the customers of ALL your products and you're the one who take earn the commission when I'm the one who closes the sale. Yet, not even a saying 'thank you' at the end of the day. No basic courtesy. Are you a pea brainer? Damm. All these are your brand and I'm nice enough to help you out to bring your stock in and out. I don't even know where the hell did you 'ma-sok' (put) the product and what a lousy-not-updated-stock-taking on the shelf. That's your shelf anyway. Your job.

When I was in Fujitsu Service Centre. I manages the logistics of Return-Material-Authorization(RMA) section. I had a well updated database and I can easily find any notebook parts less than a minute.

Customer A gave me 2 shoes and and the customer B gave me another shoe and all these products are from you. Logically, to make things fast and to clear the crowd, while you're in the damm store, god knows what you are doing inside or chit chatting with other aunties and I'm kind enough to pass you 1 shoe to help me get the requested size right and you gave me this kind of 'sulky-fucking-frustrated-of-why-cant-you-find-it-yourself' expression for what? When I'm the one who is doing your shit job and you're earning your commission off me. What the hell?

Hahaha. Anyway, if you think I'll put the boxes back to the original shelf position according to the code number after serving the customer. I'm sorry that I didn't do so. I just (ma-sok) all the boxes back into any empty spaces. So, until the day I left Raffles City, this will be your price to pay. You gonna die-cock-stand in the storeroom while finding for the code number. I have my limits and principles. So please don't test my patience and take a ride of my kindness as my weakness. Got it, kid?

I don't mind helping someone who APPRECIATE my help to do the job but not a selfish fark like you. BOOO! and _l_ is for you.

My apologies for this post as it's kinda vulgar but I'm pissed off over it. Go ahead and test me again. I've so many strategies to deal with you.

2007-02-15T01:03:00.000+08:00

Haha. Feel like taking up jet ski and powerboat license. I hope it isnt too expensive. Anyone interested? Feel free to join. Yeah! I love sea sports. :)

People especially aunties at work usually mistaken me for a malay boy just because I'm 'orh orh.' -.-

Well, I just reflect about it. Whatever it is, for a status in the future. I must make out of it with hardwork no matter what.

Success = (Vision)(Determination)(Hardwork)

currently listening so Big Big World - 1998 top music hits. Found a way to configure my notebook speaker. Great bassy sound! :)

what the! National Anthem - Majulah Singapura in rock metal version. There's even a guitar solo.

Ciao! Facial appointment at 7pm, Clementi. Just opened by my friend.

Today is valentine's day and i hope all of you are enjoying this occasion, but not for me!

Went to settle the poly admissions in SP and TP in the afternoon with my bachelor classmates and hang out in town. We're a bunch of losers actually. Haha.

And so, we saw lotsa couples. From young to old. So nice and romantic. ;) Anyway, to all couples out there, do trust, respect and love each other, only then both of you will be strong.

"Love, it is the flower and you it's only seed"

2007-02-13T14:53:00.000+08:00

Well, just applied for the courses in poly and I hope i will get into my intended course! Cross my fingers and hope that it won't screw my master plan out.

Yesterday was my first day of work. Really tough but time flies very fast. A b.c and I manage the whole of men's shoe department. What the shit man. So busy. walking in and out. One after another or even got to multi-task the job. The store is so damm messy. Find the code number like crazy on the shelf.

Of course, wherever I work, it is a must for me to 'kheng' (slack). Slack smartly la!

Scenerio 1
Getting the shoe sizes. I was in the storeroom, slowly find the code number. muahahaha.

Scenerio 2
Some stock which I cannot find (brand not under me la), I'll tell the customer "sorry. We dnot have any stock for this" hahahaa.

This indian customer was a pain in the arse. Gave me 3 different kinds of shoe and asked for size 7. So i get it out. Later, he wanted a size 8. I get it out him again. After trying out the size 8. He told me that "his left foot fits perfectly into this shoe and my right shoe felt kinda loose" and asked if i got him the correct pair or not. ------> inproportion foot la. Another b.c customer. Disturb only..

storeroom

men's shoe department. I rather sell men's brief or bag!

At TP, design school

WORK AGAIN. From 5pm -9.30pm. ARGHHH!
Byeeeeeeeee!

2007-02-11T22:10:00.000+08:00

Okay. I wasted 2 choice of my poly admission. We have only 5 choices. We were given a list of courses and and during the drop down selection menu, it appears to have courses which didnt appear in the list. So I thought that they sort it out according to our course disciplinary. I put Mechanical engineering and moving images. The next thing, i heard from my friends that we can only choose the courses which appears on the list. WTF.

I left with 3 choices. I'm hoping many will choose the hottest course and not the course which I'm entering. It's not a popular course though. Heehee. =) Lord, please guide me through with wisdom and grace.

Okay. Graduation day is over. Went to push back NS enlistment too. Tmr will be working. flexible hours huh. 5pm - 9pm. Wahahahaa. Easy job too.

I went kayaking with my friends today. Rented a kayak at pasir ris sea sports club. So yea, just kayking around. Going around making people capsized and tried to do a turn by bending sideways, using your bodyweight. I'm more confident with kayaking though. Able to kayak real fast and do a turn. woooohooo. I'm tanned! once again but my hand had some cuts but the rocks.

Pasir Ris Sea Sports Club

Lunchtime!

Giant Banana!

Graduation Day!

PU0501Q guys!

Waiting to go on stage. =P Great friends.

2007-02-01T16:57:00.000+08:00

Well. Nothing much for the day. Went to see a doctor and met my secondary school friends - Dickson and Wei Lun, while waiting for the consultation. Talked about our secondary school and tertiary lifes. Memorable.

Half of my day is gone just like that. Took out my camera and shot randomly.
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRIINNNNGGGG LA!

3 months supply of medications

that is how i always lie on my bed.

my work desk.

2007-02-01T03:05:00.000+08:00

I received my NS enlistment letter few days ago and was reassigned to 3rd Battalion Singapore Guards. Weird.

Well, past few days have been locking myself at home. Watching some shows. Amazing that i completed 5/8 DVDs of a korean drama show in 4 days. Really crazy. I stayed up as late as 4.30am and woke up at 2pm.

Somehow, I gotta take good care of my eyes, for the future. Heah. I always have the habbit of using the comptuer for long hours. I really have to change my habbit. No wonder 95% of the kampong villagers have perfect eyesight. Guess i have to resort to locking my computer up one day!

Well, I went down to Hougang Mall just now. To get a facial cleanser, contact lens and made a new pair of glasses. Wanted to get a red half-frame. Not common among the guys. It spices up the appearance and look kinda trendy. Am i right? So yea, in the end, i got myself an identical half-frame glasses in black. Shall get a red frame the next time. Perhaps, hong bao money? Hahaa.

Working hard towards the driving license. I'll be learning in march. Seems like i have to extend the PDL. Aww.

I've been sleeping at an opposite direction on my bed. Because my bed is positioned near the window, I often sleep at another position so i will face the window. Looking at the clear moon, shining on my face and the cold breeze at night as I slowly fall asleep, and how nice it is to wake up with the morning sun shining on your face. Really peaceful.

3am in the morning.

I'm going to see a doctor later. Medicine is running out. :( Seeeeeeeeya!

P/s. hope to see all of you , classmates on our graduation day. 6 days from now.

2007-01-28T22:43:00.000+08:00

Well! I got my 1 star cert for kayak. YEAH!

I lost my glasses during the deep water rescue. Hais. Luckily my degree is low. Able to see! I almost lost my shoe too! During my capsized in the deep sea, the impact forces my shoe out. floating in the deep sea, holding on the deck line of the capsized kayak and griping my toe firmly to the shoe. Tried a stunt which i hug the bow of the kayak and bring my right leg up, wear it properly and Tada! My shoe is safe!

Both legs with blisters and sunburn on my face. A tragic incident occured this morning. We were kayaking towards the shore for our lunch break at around 11+am. I saw this old uncle. He was topless and only wears a shorts, with his belongings hanging on the tree. So yea, all along, this has caught my attention. Seeing him alone and stuffs.

When we came back from our lunch at 1.30pm. He passed away. He was drowned and the police had cleared his floating body, going around to ask if we were around at that point of time. Really sad. It's like, a life is gone within an hour?

I was totally distracted by it today. Very hard to focus while kayaking against the strong current. Friends out there, no matter how good are you in swimming, please do not swim at changi beach. The current is strong, the wave is rough and it is windy. Even all of us are struggling to balance the kayak and keep in position. That is also why I never love swimming in any sea.

Feeling tired. hais.

2007-01-25T01:09:00.000+08:00

Well. I gotten my amended working schedule. They scheduled me to work in town. YEAH! Quite a easy job. Gonna start with effect from 11th Feb onwards. So yea, those who wanna disturb me during work in town are welcome!

Here is a local prank recording to share with, though it is very racist. Your decision to listen.

Take care everyone. :)

2007-01-23T23:03:00.000+08:00

haaha. did some sit ups and pumpings, mixing vodka with sparkling grape juice. Taste kinda nice, but i added too much vodka, feeling a bit dizzy while eating my char siew + roasted duck rice together with the drink. heah.

Well, just some recap of the events. today we went for a job interview at Chinatown with my usual classmates. So yea, a job working in Katong Isetan, on Feb and Takashimaya, March. Finally. All these should be enough to cover the driving license. Finally! :(

Right now, I don't know what course to choose. argh. The admission for poly is giving me a headache. So many "what if" are going on.. Some people even went to the extend of going back to school to get a recommendation letter from the lecturer for poly admission? What the hell?!

My mind is in a blank. Everything is in a whirl.

Anyway, some photos to share with.

During sectionals in NC. The conductor with his 'arcade machine'. Hahaha.

super duper messy bandstore.

clarinet section during drills.

2007-01-21T19:57:00.000+08:00

I'm tan! Dark and sexy eh. =P Thanks to the kayaking lesson for 1 star and 2 star certification session on every Sunday, 10- 5pm, with 14 of my friends. A huge group of us. Hahaa. Well, the lesson was great. In the morning, it was those basic techniques, such as forward and backward paddling. Started off with swimming 50m in the sea, to test the swimming ability, capsized drill, embark and disembarking from the canoe.

Break for lunch and I had my favourite food from my favourite stall. The fierce part of it comes in now. Gotta bring our kayak down to the sea and paddle near the open sea. Paddling foward, race against the opposing wave and current. I was like.. kayaking too fast that almost capsized! Luckily I didn't la. Phew! My kayak starts to shake left and right. I quickly stop paddling and place it on the deck. LOL! Moment later.. I realized that the others was like so far away, 45degrees bearing on my left, i was like.. heading straight to the open sea! So yea, slow and steadily, make a steady turn and slowly paddle to the left to join-raft as the freaking wave hits on my kayak on the right.

After some briefings and instructions during the joint-raft, we broke apart and head off to the next destination. I got rammed by other kayak ar! Hahaha. Dodged the first coming kayak towards my direction by paddling backwards, but the 2nd kayak ram onto me. AND my kayak starts to shake! Almost capsized, but luckily i didn't. HAHA! Later, we had our deep water rescue lesson on deep waters. Really difficult and challenging.

1 rescuer, 1 asst. and 1 victim. The victim was capsized, and we gotta rescue the victim. The procedures is to empty water that is inside the capsized kayak in the middle of the deep sea and get that buggle into the kayak. Really tough. Hahaa. The victim is a super BIG size, while the rescuer and the asst. is the SMALL size okay?! I was the rescuer and while anchoring the victim's kayak with the rough wave and current, the victim climbed over his kayak... and he toppled down..... whole boat is capsized and i gotta pull his kayak up and place it on our decks to empty the water again. Later, placed it back and anchor his kayak with my both hands on the kayak comb for him to climb up... when he was climbing up from one the back of the kayak, the front end went up! smth like.. TITANIC? this time round, the water enter into his kayak and fully submerged with water. Gotta turn the kayak over and repeat the same steps over again. Really tiring. At last, he finally got onto the kayak but i almost capsized when anchoring his kayak ar! Luckily my partner anchored my kayak firmly. Thanks boy. Returned back to the shore, de-brief and wash up the kayaks.

It was fun after all. :) I'm super... tired.

I love water sports :)

2007-01-20T02:45:00.000+08:00

I love this video. Great for BMW lovers and I love BMWs. Shall try this next time. :D

Another drifting video. On a freeway. Excellent control.enjoy!

school prank on a guy in a library. WTH! Really hilarious..

2007-01-15T21:53:00.000+08:00

It has been a long time since i had an arguement with people.

When people is not interested in this job and wants to leave. You would just respect the person's reason and decision to leave right? What for cursing and swearing at the person? Everything all reflects back to yourself. LOSER, and you label yourself a SALES person?

Met this group of youth people who is a year younger than me, really rowdy, lack of discipline and have no respect for others. Sure you are like that. That is your problem. You don't have any social etiquette. I thought it is a stable sales job, but to my surprise. It is a job which YOU GOTTA SELL TICKETS! What the shit man. Your pay is like, for every 15 tickets is sold, you earns $20 and, it's not an apporiate way of 'doing a charity for a home'

1. Not allowed to tell the public that you're been paid for the number of tickets been sold when asked, but to tell them that you are only given for transport allowance?

2. "Charity comes from your heart" You participate with, willingly with your own spirit and not making use of the public donations as your pay? The whole thing turns back to the NKF case.

No man. Not for me. I'm looking for a stable job to pay off for my driving license.

2007-01-12T03:03:00.000+08:00

On msn with my buddy, terence. Talking about our goals.

I love the air force very very very much and desire to get in. Airbase environment. Officer with a sword. Military Wedding. Very regimental and discipline.

I must make my way up.

I, Melvyn Leong Jia Wei, promise that I will work my arse off in my studies regardless of whatsoever reason, to join the Republic of Singapore Air Force, RSAF.

OKAY. right now is the crapping part of it.

2007-01-11T00:03:00.000+08:00

RAINY DAY. -.-

Went for another job interview and got selected. Together with our classmates, for a position applied as Sales Promoter. Job scope is on project basis. Shall see how is the job prospect on the training on monday. I guess the training will benefit a lot. More on mass-communication? BUT the duration gonna be from 9.30am to 6.30pm! It's like.. Having THEORY lesson. oh man. Were asked to bring notebook, pen and etc. I gonna bring my DV6121Tx instead.

I tried a combat fighter plane game. It was fun! Flying a F15M fighter plane and guning all the enemies down. BUT OF COS. Flying the real thing is still the best. I don't frequently go to the arcade. It is noisy. Just go there for a lill' enjoyment with friends? Don't really spend a lot. A coin or 2 would last me for the whole game. Wahahaha. Meaning to say, there is hardly a game over for it. Would complete all the stages. Heah! I usually either play Outrun 2 or Daytona with my classmates / friends. Daytona has been my childhood game. Started playing since P3. I love Puzzle Fighter too. Really fun. Often challenge against my sister. I really wish all these game will still exist in a decade time or more. In the past, during my secondary school time, I'm great in DDR! Often play those consecutive maniac speed stages till the end of the game. Really crazy.

Alright, those are part of my memories.

Saw a very nice custom-made suit. Costing $300. I will make this suit. =) Depending on the balance after paying for the license. I kinda like the shiny turqoise or shiny dark grey. They're purely made of silk. The design isn't those kinda blazer design. Just something uncommon.

While it was raining, went to Funan IT Mall. RAN INTO OUR CLASSMATE JONATHAN, whom currently working as a office boy. ENVY* So nice to see our classmates.

Well, all those IT shops, remind me of the way I con those aunties. I don't mind working as a Con Man too. Con for more! To pay my driving license off! SEE! I would do anything for my driving license. OF COS LA! I'm earning it for myself. So even in the future when I turn into a grandpa, I will be able to tell my grandchildren this "your ah gong learned driving at 18 years old, with his hard earned money. In times when you want something, you earn for it." and all the long stories. BUT firstly. Will I be able to get married in the long run? HAHAA. So yea, I am the one and only YOUNGEST male, carrying the LEONG surname. Oh man. =( So even if I'm not married. I believe my grandparents and relatives gonna pull my ears when i go up next time. AIYAH! Too early to talk about it.

*****Why would I censored the words with X? To avoid detection from search engines from yahoo!, google and etc. Else, I gonna get sue for sure! Really.*******

Passed by FujitXu Service Centre. Which is my most enjoyable job during my attachment, although there was a lot of OT. I saw those engineers, who we often 'talking cock' during work and bought drinks and lunch for me during work. Don't wanna disturb them. They're busy with customers. - service centre = more customer. more customer = ehem ehem. Got it?

We even came up with a 'FujiXXX VS Bangla' script. I still remember.

*Phone rang*
Technician - Aye you F**king CB, your notebook is ready for collection now.
Bangla - Now ar?
Technician - Arh. Then went? Your father collect arh.
------------------------------------and so on-----------------------------
Technician - you stay where you stay where you tell me you working where?
Bangla - where u work you tell me i come.

Bangla - I-SXXXX ar, I-SXXXX where?
Technician - Takashimaya
Bangla - the new shopping centre arh?
Technician - F**** you la. Call your father all come
-------------------------------and so on---------------------------------
Technician - next time you send your notebook for service, I kill you arh. Your whole family all die.
Bangla - Ok. don't worry, I won't. I won't send my notebook for service again.
Technician - you sure ar. I see ar. Then u must say sorry to me now.
Bangla - okay. Solve already.. blah blah.
Technician - i don't wanna talk so much. Just say sorry can already.
Bangla - ok. sorry i. blah blah.
Technician - say very very sorry.
Bangla - ok. sorry sorry sorry.

Went for NCWO band practices today. Kinda surprise. I kinda worry that it gonna be a drastic drop in standards after all the seniors has gone away after the concert but it was a slight differences.

The band is still great but the trombones, cornet and eupho really gotta work their arse off. Really gotta practice hard! Choice piece and set piece really have to tidy up as clear as crystal.

to band: SYF competition is not about going for the sake of syf competition and earning some CCA points and etc. It's about your school / band /reputation of wherever u go after this. Play it shit and the whole world will starts condeming about it. Trust me. So work hard! :)

to clarinet section: Practice all your runs ar! Try not to stagger the running phrases! I know u guys can do well :)

played this childhood game - Ice and Water game with the band members after our lunch today. hahaaha. sounded crazy but it was fun though. No longer have any energy to run. sat in circle and play a maths game. my maths is rusty. kept losing.

huge play ground.

while I was on the run.

how old are we? haha.

2006-12-29T20:46:00.000+08:00

I'm working as 'Bangla / Construction worker" recently as i holds a 'contractor' pass! Job scope were like.. Doing packaging non stop? Sealing huge number of boxes till my body is aching. 2 days ago were sealing pastic for Micro SD cards memory sticks. 60 000 pieces eahc day from 8.30am - 8.30pm! Most of them are from china. ARGH. I hates being called as "xiao didi". WAH LAO!

always 'kenna' stared by leader when we talk during production. 2 days ago, was sealing SD cards and yea, all of us were like talking while doing so she told me this "xiao didi, shou jiao quai yi dian oh. bu yao jiang hua" Hahaha.. Later, we started talking again. Then she isolated all of us apart and ended up working with aunites..

I have to work another 6 more weeks, for the sake of getting a driving license before my PDL expires! gota ENDURE all the hardworks, bangla works and the calling of "xiao didi" !

Overall, the job were not bad. Get to work with your friends.

2006-12-25T23:31:00.000+08:00

wooops. this is my 3rd time RETYPING it again. NVM. I've lotsa patience. =P Wouldn't whack my notebook till all the keys start flying out. haha.

We went to Johor Bahru with our classmates today. A small group of us went over for Han Ling's Birthday. The others were either busy with christmas, parents dont allowed and terence last minute found out that his passport has expired! Aidooooi.

So yea, met at 10. I reached woodlands mrt station at 10. Simon tapped my back and i went to accompany him to his favourite Ya Kun Kaya toast to get his food. Meanwhile, delayed till 10.20. Hahahaha. and the rest was like sending sms "where are you? reach liao mah?" Hahahaa.

took a bus and crosses the causeway. Talked about not wearing 'nice nice' to jb, else high chances u will 'kenna rob'. etc etc. So i went around to disturb other classmates who dress 'nice nice' with shoe that he/she will 'kenna rob' ar. Haha.

My passport caused a lot of problem. Have been scanning and scanning my passport but it showed an error!

Went to City Square first. Tried the MacDonald over there. But their service wasn't that good ar. I ordered for a McSpicy Burger and she gave me a box of 'chicken ayam' ! and i was like. HUH? i ordered McSpicy burger *showing a handsign of a burger*. so yea, it took a while and the McSpicy burger wasn't presented in the burger box but wrapper of "Chicken burger". Total cost for the meal was. RM$10.80 . Some bought pirated gmae discs at a game shop in united square..

CONTINUED!

Went to HanLing's house right after that. Some how was kinda LOST at the private estate. JINGGA 5? Drove around jingga, jingga 2 , jingga 3 and jingga 4 but couldnt find jingga 5 until it's like just behind us? LOL!

It was great! Especially with his 'cha cha' dog who looks like a bear. Really fluffy and nice. Played Fatal Frame and the player who plays the game was totally freak out while playing. Funny. The game is nice la! Yong Chuan didn't drive out. WAsted. He joined us later. It's like, we all didnt see our classmates after so long! Yong chuan with is bassy voice "ooooooeeeeeeeeeeeeei" Basket! He told me some joke of Alien, sheeps and cows? the answer gonna be like? "wth?!" ahahha. Plus some 'hand signs'

Celebrating the chrismas boys birthday, we went down to Jusco later. The shopping centre is as big as vivocity. Lotsa shops like CK, topman, hush puppies, tough, and many many more. clothes were dammmmmmm nice. Some are not sold in S'pore! Walked Jusco then settled down at vivo restaurant. Food were nice too! total RM$15.20. Worth it! =)

On our way back to Singapore Custom, it was JAMMED! Heavily jammed. But still, i got home safely.

Walking to City Square from Custom.

Band outing at Sentosa today! Yesterday was raining like crazy and today, the weather was quite FINE!

So yea, though i live very very near to Compass Point but I'm late! Suppose to meet at 11am and i came at 11.15am. BUT! I'm not the only one who is late. Mother theresa was late! Mr. Lum went along too.

So yea, took a train down from Sengkang down to Harbourfront. Throughout the journey, we were doing the crossword puzzle! Took a walk to Sentosa from Harbourfront instead of bus, as bandmembers alone gonna occupy half of the bus. Weather wasn't too humid too.

Had lunch at koufu foodcourt, palawan beach. Food were really expensive. Chicken rice @ $4.50. Wah LAU! EXPENSIVE. No wonder SENTOSA is really called as So Expensive, Nothing TO See Actually! Walked down from Palawan to Siloso and found a good spot! Saw mediacorps doing a filming, and it reminds me of our filming days during our Final Year Project production stages. They have 2 soundman, 2 cams, 3 reflectors. FIERCE!

Settled down and the guys went off to play basketball and the girls off to build sandcastles, waters. etc etc etc etc etc etc ! The basketball court were really. Werid! Sandy grounds. Cannot attack and defence much. No grip, no feel. Hahha. Jason, Jonathan and me in a team, playing against Kong Ming, Zhi Guang and Mr. Lum.. Play for 3 games till I'm totally exhausted and join the rest at the sea.

It was fun la. I felt very lazy to eleborate. A picture will speaks and sings a thousand words! So why type? haha.
Dig a big hole. So I'm the supervisor and the bandmembers are my banglas. They went to chase mr. lum and buried him under the sand. Looked like a human muah chee + lotsa visual disturbance! Aiyah. Lazy to type so much. Evil ManTing almost cause me to FLY down the stairs. haha..

In the evening, after having our dinner at harbourfront food court. OH YEAH! The deer meat is nice! Really nice! I enjoy eating. Time was about 8pm and we all spilt up. Some went to play pool and some went home. Jonathan, Gina, Vanessa, Jason, Mr. Lum, Zhi Guang, Kong Ming, Lynette and me went along to SAFRA, Mount Faber to play pool. Spilts into 2 tables. Beginner tables and Normal. Guess my luck wan't around. Play with Kong Ming is the most noisest game of all. Crapping with each other while playing. Was about to win! Mis cued it and the black ball rolls in. RAAAAHHH!

On another table, it was interesting and funny too. Hahaha. congrats to lynette for learning how to play pool today. LOL! Oh yea, I saw a dance studio, Dance Floor. Dance classes are 6 sessions / 1hr @ $75. Might be learning from there? After i get my pay once i work. ahaaha. What kinda dance? It's a i know, myself and melvyn knows. Definetely not a strip dance, pole dance or bar top dancing. (HanLing, especially for u. I know u gonna reply this.) =)

OVERALL, really a very fun and steady outing!

Buying tickets, outside VivoCity

NCWO ROCKS!

Playing basketball on a super sandy basketball court.

Striking some post! ahahahhaha. I'm NOT A GAY btw!

Poor thing.

Well done Nan Chiau Wind Orchestra for it's very first agurual concert! Everyone put in their best.

Thanks for those who came to support in the concert too!

The final rehearsal in the bandroom just before the concert was very very nice. The concert committee have done their best. Decorations is nice. Thanks to those who make an extra mile to Bugis..etc to get all the props. The concert planning was great too! Thanks to everyone who put in their hearts and soul in the concert planning who makes last night's concert a success. Perhaps, I should highlight some of their names to keep it for memories.

Poh Yih, Samantha, Yun Jie, Theresa, YanTing, Jasmine, Pamela, Joe, (ah shit i can't remember!), the conductors and everyone! Everything was great and I love the team playing.

Here's the event for yesterday, meeting the clarinet section at 9am, Compass Point, outside 7 eleven. I woke up at 8.45am! Am LATE! So yea, I went to meet them at 9.45. Went to the Bandroom at 10+. Poh Yih bought the helicopter which we saw at hougang mall. Was playing with it for sometime. Haha. Bandroom is more like an homeroom. Practiced some major running passages, rehearsals, fine tuning, getting ready, have our "super good food" for dinner with the clarinet section and then CONCERT TIME!

All of us shouted 'ROCK THE HALL' outside the bandroom before going to the hall. We started a walk-in introduction, unlike common concert whereby all the bandmembers was seated down.
Concert was great and entertaining! Mr Png dressed as a Santa Claus, Mr Lum, as elf and Crystal as the little girl who played her solo in the Christmas Recollections.

After the concert, I have those left over styrofoam pallets, I was like sprinkling at the other bandmembers, ended up have to clean the bandroom. -.-" Hahhaa.

I really enjoy myself in the NC wind orchestra. I always hope to be in this band like? for long? stay in this school for a very long time. And i enjoyed myself in practicing, having lunch and playing along with the clarinet section too!

We the band people will fight our might,
we show you people we will fight!
we will we will (f.u), (f.u) - "fU doesnt mean F*** You." (created by lynette!)

hahaa!

Leadership

2006-12-15T01:54:00.000+08:00

Wherever you go, leadership, management, self-discipline, effective communication, co-operation, respect and teamwork plays the most important role. Bear in mind that this post carries no offences and is not meant on arrowing anyone.

In our experience from what we have been through.

In a department, if you were the overall in charge and there are people below you. What do you have to do? As a overall in charge, it's the greatest responsiblity to handle the efficiency of the workflow of job allocation/ duties (management) within the members, an effective communication, respect, leadership and overall decision making after discussion to a conclusion.

Decision making is often clash with "i'm the leader and I make the decision" however in my perception, I would prefer it to be in a open discussion /views/suggestions before the leader would make the decision. (Autocratic over democrative leadership styles)

Teamwork plays the most important roles. The number of people under you does not affect the duties, but it does make it challenging, hence, difficult to handle. For the efficiency for teamwork, it's not the overall in charge that do the job, it's everyone's job to play a part in the team. This is call teamwork. In a event of the leader is not around, everything will still run smoothly, not just all the people don't even know what to carry out and continue the tasks. If someone were to 'bao ka liao' take charge of the whole thing, it wouldnt be teamwork. It's like there's only a Indian Chief. A person doing all the solo stuffs.

We meet all kinds of personalities. Some are dominant, compliant, etc in the D.I.S.C category. The only way to work it out is based on effective communication and the way of handling things.

In all kinds of scenerios, in my perception, i would say it's the leadership, management, effective communication, co-operation, respect and teamwork that plays the part.

I'm not being complacent for my own way of thinking but our views of experiences from what we have gone through. I sincerely welcome constructive feedbacks and cristisms. Thank you for your time, readers.

2006-12-14T21:19:00.000+08:00

2 days to concert.

Had woodwinds sectional on yesterday's morning. Went for lunch with the bandmembers at 303 coffeehouse, and had sectionals from afternoon to evening. Cleared up some mess / shits for the running passages. Haha.

Today! Had sectionals in the morning, but somehow, i was slacking about. My mouth is like so tired after a long practice for yesterday. So yea, after school, we went to catch a movie at yishun instead of going to the beach. Poor Lynette's pails and spade have to stay with the dust at her doorstep. Watched a horror film, Cinderella with the clarinet section + joe and poh yih.

Final band practice on tomorrow and SHOWTIME!

Candid shot - Candy and Melissa were so freak out during the movie

clarinet section rawks =)

We still gotta do a 'GRADUATION ASSIGNMENT' I copy and paste this from han ling's blog. Perhaps next week then I'll start doing.

Hi PU0501Q class, Hope that all of you are keeping well and enjoying a well-deserved break. :-) As you guys are the graduating class, you will have to submit a 1 page year book design (consisting of any work you have done in XXXX - 3D, MFDI, MDP, etc).

All you need to do is to follow the design template and modify it with your own work images and your work will be displayed in the yearbook! So I hope you guys can submit to me within the next two weeks. I believe some of you have many great designs (from what I see in M8 lessons) and I'm sure you will be proud to showcase them and represent our Q class!

Attached is the year book design for the graduating classes with a sample of how it might look with content in it. (in Indesign and PDF, the PDF is the sample of how it will look) RULES:All images and text to be within the margin set (in the InDesign file)To fill in their name, class, and contact email at the top of the file.To use the font specified in the template (Arial) as well as the specified font size for the captions and titles.(No problem with font as all PCs and Macs have Arial)All images are to be boxed-up and to have a 0.5 thickness border in black (Sample in the InDesign file)You don't have to follow the lay out of images in the sample template as it is just a sample to show them the thickness of lines and fonts.

I can be contacted at XXXXXXX (office) or XXXXXXXXX (HP) u can just reply to my email if you have any queries! :) Feel free to keep in touch with me/Ms Josephine and all of us at XXXX! We'd be really happy and excited to hear about your updates! Lastly, wishing you guys a blessed Xmas and Happy New Year.

Best Regards, Goh Boon Mei Joanie

Concert is just exactly a week! And boy! i haven't even started selling my tickets! BUT THERE GONNA BE FULL HOUSE! PERHAPS FULL HOUSE? I THINK FULL HOUSE LA.

Band practice were fine but just that the instrument have been giving me problem! At some parts of the pieces, gotta use from B natural to C# then Eb! BUT! My alternalt fingering not working! Not tight enough. So i always got stuck with my fingers when it reach that part. @%#$&^()*!

I really hope that our band concert will go smoothly and touches the audiences at the end of the concert. Let our very first concert be the best and the most memorable one! =P Maximize our creativity for the concert preparation!

It's only I get all my passion and feelings for clarinet when I am with NC winds. Weird huh? ahha. But well, I started learning clarinet and been through the process of the building of the band. Perhaps that's is the main reason. Hopefully the proposed overseas trip is granted!

Joke of the day - PADS. LOL!

Our wishes for the NC Wind Orchestra for next year SYF.

2006-12-06T23:37:00.000+08:00

Wakes up early in the morning and went for band practice. I feel that we're running out of time and wasn't totally prepared yet! About 60% prepared for the concert. Oh my. A lot of pieces are not run through yet. Hopefully, things will go smoothly la.

Had sectional today and it was great? Hahaha.. Made the clarinets juniors repeat and repeat and repeat the phrases until it gets prefect. LOL. Torturing but that's the effective way of practicing ar. 'From cannot play to can play' That what i always kenna when I was in high school. Stayed back for the whole day to practice. But well, my mouth is tired and started to lose the tone and intonation. So ended up slacking with the rest in the school hall, chit chatting and playing about. Haha ;) Sectionals tmr. Full band on Friday and Concert Rehearsal on Sat. Busy huh.

practicing.

Getting bored. Trying out new ways of "isolated sectional" at the sides of the hall.

carrying lynette's bag to compass point. Haha

cute security uncle. =D

2006-12-04T02:08:00.001+08:00

SITEX IT show just ended. It was my first time doing sales and boy, i made 6 sales in 3 days. In total I sold 2 DV2121tx, 3 desktops and 1 dv6121tx. Sales is really run. You get to play around with it and talk a lot. The best part to play with is to convince the customer. Really fun la. Enjoy working with our collegues for these 3 days.

Heard from other companies that our booth was the highest number of sales among all. Although we have to stand for like more than 11hours, it was really enjoyable. Every one of us were so energetic that we kept pulling customer. Another promoter was like "OFFER OFFER!" Hahha. Our booth has lotsa customer until the other booth 'buay tahan'.. start's to slash prices and give free gifts. But still, we manages to win the customers la. By using the 3 Cs technic. LOL!

As for today, I ended my sales in selling a notebook to a couple. Both of them have a very strong chemistry between with each other. Hahaa. We're like so damm chatty. Between sales and customer. LOL. The usual price was 2599 and i gave them the best price of $2440 including 1st year warranty. 2nd and 3rd year will cost an additional $287, but I gave them $199 instead. So yea, in total they gotta pay 2599. Hahaha. He was like "if u can give me the price of 2400.. I steady...." so my reply to him was "if i can steady steady bring it down to 2400... u confirm steady ar?" and he was like "steady..." Crapping and crenching the sales. Very memorable! Anyway, i've made great friends from the IT show. Hahhaaha.. WIDESCREEN TV can see more enemies eh... Hahaha.

Packing up!

So crowded! HP promoters are in blues jacket

My STEADY customers! Hahaha.

At work...!

PU0501B / Q

2006-11-30T18:17:00.001+08:00

Today is our last day of school, the very last day of us having lunch together @ Prima Deli, crapping with each other and sharing the lift as we attend classes, the very last day of playing games in class, playing Dai-Dee and communicate with one another.

Time really really flies. I keep having the thoughts that we have lessons on the coming Monday. Our school life ends at the very end of all the project deadlines. Can't believe that it's the end of the school. How I wish this class would be 4 years or more? Every passing events that happened throughout the year is still clearly visible. The first time we reported to school, the first time we all get to know each other, having our lunch at burger king, the fun times we go around the school with cameras for our Multimedia Fundamentals, Digital Media Technolgy and IGV. The time spent in chalet and having lunch in school, after school, lunch at Sempang Bedok, changi airport and class excursions. I wouldn't feel bored to go to school. I always looking forward to the starting day of school of every week after every weekends. I've made a lot of great friends. We are always the 'talk-cockers' and it's never been bored since the day 1 of school.

Sadly, due to the crashing of our 3 major modules projects, all of us didn't really have the chance of spending our time to the fullest in class and everything just comes to the end after today. All the times we had together, are simply the most wonderful memories I've ever encounter in my education life.. All of us has made great friends and I definitely hope that we will keep in touch whichever route we will be going into next..

That's my locker.

looking at what huh?

Greetings to you, readers.

I've not update my blog very often. But I'll try to keep track of the events that occured. After next week, we're officially graduated from the school. NO MORE DMA LAB. Wahahahaa.. All of us, almost the whole MMT classes are infected by VIRUS! The root of the hirachy is from the DMA lab through the boot.exe virus were initially "arrested" hahaha. They seems to "jail break" or "bail" out.

Friday
Back to my high School for Band Practice. Some guest player named Doreen join the clarinet section, playing 1st stand. Had sectionals, so we, the 2nd stand were running through the running passages.. Very intensive. 1. Play set by set, 2. then join the set, 3. emphasize on the 1st note of each set, 4. play the whole set, 5. work and sound together.. Very tiring. As we always repeat and repeat and repeat until we got it right then proceed. Play till Melissa feels like fainting..

Air con is leaking! HAHAHAAHA
_______________________________________

Saturday
Went to KSWS concert in the evening at Jubliee Hall with all the Ex-KSWS buddies. The band has improved as compared to the last concert. Lotsa guest players! 2 years back, I played on stage for the concert and now, we were the audience for this year concert.

I played for Concert 8, 9 and 10.
_________________________________________

Sunday
Project day. Went to TCC @ Raffles Place, as usual, did our project and discussion for PPT presentation tmr. 5 notebooks! Fujitsu, Compaq, NEC, Ferrari and HP. Later at night, I saw this traditional dance group from Indonesia. I really love their traditional dance and musics. Felt like dancing with them! ahhaa.

OKAY! I shall end here! NITES!

2006-11-23T21:59:00.000+08:00

Another new entry.

3 more weeks to concert. Monday will be the presentation and next week is the submission of the IGV flash project and 2 other phase tests. Really very busy. Practicing the pieces and school. Next Wednesday will be my final theory test. Hasven't study leh. Too busy to study. Neither do I want to fail my FT after travelling all the way down from SengKang to Bukit Gombak.

I shall start with the morning. Went to school and there was this massive traffic jam, all the way from Ponggol Road and the whole stretch of TPE. Yea and I knew that there gonna be an accident. Coincidentally, my classmate was involved in the accident. He had a rear collison onto a Black Subaru WRX when the WRX slammed the E-brake. Another car behind his car managed to brake on time, but 2 other cars collided into each other. News passes around our class and we begin talking about upon hearing the news.

2 phase tests was postponed to next week. During our break, we went to Tampines to buy 4D and settle down at long john silver for our lunch. Kinda slack for school today. I'm so lack of sleep that my hair starts dropping. Hais.

don't know why we all ended up like this after buying the packet of seaweeds

Wo de Jia.

My wife. I miss those long distance cycling days

2006-11-20T20:14:00.000+08:00

AFTER SO LONG! Another update! I've clear the 3D project, Flash Project 1 and FYP Project. FYP is just left with the presentation segment. More or less gonna complete. Left with one final flash project and that's all folk! Due to all these project fever, we're like kinda.. 'no energy no energy le' slacking in class, using msn, playing Marvas VS Capcom, in class! Super slack. Don't know why. All run out of energy.

Saturday
Played for NC open house on Wednesday. Quite okay la. I dressed in NCHS uniform! LOL. My colored hair is the main problem. So yea, asked Belinda to bring the black spray in order to "pass" and perform. LOL. In the evening, I went to play Pool at hougang plaza with the juniors. Played a game again Mr. Lum. Close fight. I screwed up my last ball. Gave him a free ball and he won! Nice game.

Sunday
I was so tired that I didn't attent church services. Met Shun Keat, Edric and Simon at our usual place to finish our flash project. upon reaching there, FULL HOUSE! Walked from raffles place to Clarke Quay TCC, it was full house! Basket. Our notebooks are already like, killing us. Bloody heavy. Especially shun keat's with his monster. Haha.. FINALLY! We're able to get a place at the CityLink TCC. We brought power extentions! LOL! Did the place like crazy till 10.30pm. Focus lotsa time on Lab 10, but the actual sol^ to it isn't that difficult at all.. Doesn't have to put the sound into the layer! ARGH~

hmmmmmmmmmm..

Managing my time for school and concert rehearsal on every Wed and Friday. We have only 4 weeks to concert. So yea, everything is very hectic. Playing 2 heavy pieces for the concert and the rest of the piecs, I'm not familiarise with. Apart from that, I have to practice damm hard for my "lost touch of instrument for a year" Imagine... lotsa of work to go through.. Running passages, sound / intonation, technics, and familiarise with everything. Having sectional (playing with everyone to sound as one in a section) is the most crucial. 8 practices to concert. Very little ample of time. I have to practice a lot. All of us have to sound good. Requires a lot of teamwork. Don't wish to play shit, ended up, dragging everyone to shit. Very unfair and a failure as a musician.. NC band, all of us work hard alright? Rock the hall and definitely feel good and a sense of achievement at the end of the concert. =) In my schedule, unless major / important events, I'm likely to push my schedule that happens on these 2 various days. BAH~*

2006-11-09T23:09:00.000+08:00

I didn't sleep for 2 days le. freaking tired.. Spent the whole night completing the flash project and the final year project. Whole night solving the problem for the video editing.. werid. The whole thing was okay when we were in the cafeteria doing the fine tuning.. but everything went outta place the moment i open the file at home. so yea, spent the whole night on re-fine tuning from 1am - 6am.. wash up then go to school. tired tired tired.

Had phrase test today.. die la. did 3 stupid mistakes. =(

Later, had an excursion to Kranji War Memorial, Kent Ridge Park and Labador park. Nice place.. hehee. Except that the weather is like... bad,. real bad. Raining! Thunder lightnings.. =(

The place is nice at the labardor park. Mediacorp happens to be there. So this A lao - PA came to us and asked us to move away from the camera. can see all of us sia. Hahaha.. Perhaps, we were making too much noise away from them such as "camera roll" "rolling" "action" Hahahaha.

Instead of going back to school, we dropped at harbourfront and went to Vivocity for a walk. Tired tired tired.

2006-11-06T22:38:00.000+08:00

Well..

As usual.. attended MDP lesson in the morning.. IGV lesson later.. Doing nothing? Whole day doing flash project.. In the middle of doing.. I suddenly found my ideas like a chunk of last minute rubbish.. Hahaa. so yea, change the later part of the storyline to a super COLD flash? Still, I guess my output still shitty.

Right after IGV, we had PE! Played basketball with Simon and Edric. Simon taught us streetball tricks.. interesting and fun.. but cannot play with ah bengs.. sure ended up into fights.. ahhahaha..

Later, we slacked at the basement and saw this bunch of muslim boys doing stunt. Fancy kicking the ball from Basement to 3rd floor.. He's cool. Great shot in kicking.. If it were to be in my secondary school.. Muthu would have catch you and do CWO for the whole day..

After slacking at teh basement, we went to Cafeteria 1 to cool down. I played Bingo with diana. Hahaa.. One of my favourite game when I was young.. I saw hardgay talking to Terence and company.Wouldn't dare not go to their side. LAter kenna !@#$%^&* again.. Luckily I didn't get the seaweed soup. Firstly I wanna eat.. But it was sold out! Simon took the last bowl of the soup.. Poor Terence is now lau sai-ing, thanks to the seaweed soup.. aiyo..

Everyday, I'm always struck with gastic and chest pains, although I did not skip my meals. A kinda feeling like something pierced through my organs. Anyway, who cares.

Listening to this very nice songs by S.E.N.S - lunar dreams. Really very nice piece. Great composition.

obviously I got this photo from Justin. Copy and paste the links over here. Hahaha! Hope you don't mind =)

2006-10-28T14:21:00.000+08:00

Went to into JB with Simon and meet up Han Ling and Yong Chuan at the petrol station after the causeway. Weather was so damm hot.. Earlier on, around 12.30pm. that cockster is still sleeping.. WTH! haha..

So yea, went to a food house for lunch. Heard that it's quite famous? The food was delicious and filling.. Cheap and nice! RM$5.

So yea, I memorized the road to that food house and his house as he siap / lup gear / tun gear like daytona and outrun driving at 130-140km/h on main road in JB.. Crazy.. Anyway shall go JB again next time..

When dropping young chuan off at the main road, he didn't look out for vehicles behind him and opened the door.. " GOT MOTOOOOOOOOOOOORRR!" han ling shouted and that uncle riding the motor was totally shocked. Look very stunt! Hahaha..

Later at night, went to City Square to watch to have our dinner and watch The Grudge 2. A guy beside me was like.. slotching down the seat and covering his face as the scary part of the show goes.. Hahaha.

yong chuan and his mocha waited here since 12.30pm but we arrives an hour.

too bad no toyota wish on the road leh~

2006-10-25T20:02:00.000+08:00

I just had my dinner. Well, it's raining and I hope the hazy days will be over soon. I always like to think about all the sweetest thing. How nice it would be if you walk with your love ones under the rain with an umbrella? Well, guess it wouldn't happen in my life perhaps.

2006-10-24T15:28:00.000+08:00

Oh I didn't go to JB today. We didn't confirm about it yesterday so yea, it's kinda last minute. Hehee.. and I'm a person who dosen't like last minute things either.. Well, after blogging, I'll be going out to town with some of my classmate pals - simon, terence, robert and edric.

Here, class of 2005 and 2006. I always prefer to go to school than staying at home.. Really hope that all of us will carry the memories we created whenever we go..

2006-10-24T00:25:00.000+08:00

counting down to the days to the deadline for the project. Other group is like done with their editing and started report. How about us? Still struggling.

Should be enough to get back my embrochure! Wait! B Bb what fingering ar? shucks! all forgotten le. KNN!

Yesterday, while the secondary school kids were having school holidays, we were in school. Quite a boring lesson? Doing flash that's all. Except that my motion tween was uttery screwed up. Gonna redo. What's my plan for later? going to JB? Waiting for Simon to reply..

Shall end here. I'm very tired and stress~

2006-09-20T19:15:00.000+08:00

I'm as tired as a dead fish. Look like a zombie nowadays - like what Terence said.

LACK OF SLEEP! VERY TIRED!

Well, Last Saturday was a Jurong West doing filming overnight and the following Sunday, went down to the sponsorship shop to film another scene.

At the end of that Sunday, Hanling gave a lift and well, we all got stuck in the City Area. Driving up and down, still stuck around Suntec City with a Singapore road maps behind, like a navigator. Haha.. But in the end manages to get out.

The moment I reach home, I took some clothes and head back to Jurong West. Next day got to bring all the equipments back to school! Managed to sleep at 1am and woke up at 5am. Get up, brush teeth and head to school with Shun Keat.

Monday - we have to die die film our IGV Project v3. NO CHOICE! Went home early, get changed and brought our skate scooters down. Filmed till 11pm and reached home at 12 midnight.

Tuesday - Lessons from 8am - 6pm. Later had group discussion till 9pm+. Reached home at 10pm.

Today, Wednesday - This morning, went down to town for filming in a cafe.. Manages to complete 2/4 cafe scenes.. Time is running out and got to return back to school ASAP.

Left with 10 more scenes! By the end of this week we die die have to complete our filming!!!! This week is our Production week. Next 2 weeks is the Post Production week.. Video Editing, Sound Editing, Photoshoot, Poster Design to be submitted. Deadline is 2 weeks from now! NO TIME NO TIME NO TIME! AIYOH! *Headache* I love to take a good break but cannot!

Telling myself to finish it once and for all...

Our Lord Jesus Christ, please give us wisdom and grace to complete this project by this week, please guide us well during the process.. Amen.

Home sweet Home at 7am from our shooting and woke up at 2pm. Am going back to school now.

Yesterday, I received a call of a last minute shoot for our IGV Project Video 3. Rushed on our shotlist and script and off to do our shooting overnight in school. Terence, Justin and I brought our skate scooters along. It was fun. First time in my life, skating around the school with our skate scooters at a very high speed.. In the evening when Terence and I stepped into the school, we set up our scooters and start skating. Catching lotsa eyes of all the fellow students ;)

Perhaps we should bring it along during school days.

Well, we wasted lotsa time as we were having our lighting problems as the school is almost darkness and all of us starts to get very very tired. Lotsa unexpected problems appeared. Did not manage to finish our filming as we're not allowed to stay overnight. Return back the equipment at 3am and we walk / skate all the way from our school to Tampines Mall. 40 mins journey. Along the way, I lost my my clothes. I came to realize hours later in the 24 hours MacDonald. SIGH~ I lost the uniform cover. Very special uniform cover. Red in color with a Singapore Arm Forces Band Logo. It's a uniform cover which can only get it when you go for Officer Cadet Course.

School is completely DARK!

Well. 3D lesson and MDP project for today.

Yesterday, 12th September, Shun Keat and I went for our haircut and later had our final IGV project 3 with Terence. Hehe. This will be our finale for our filming project among all the modules from Neon Aurora and we gonna end it with a big bang!

We did some location recky around the school and played pool after that. WE'VE GOT A POOL CENTRE in our school. 1hr - $3. Play 2 vs 2. Terence and I VS Shun Keat and Edric. We won! HAHA!

Well, off to the basketball court and played with Justin, Shun Keat, Edric, Yun Ru, Rosanne and a guy from Sports Management. Damm fun! Shouting "here! here! here!" "there! there! there!" Shall play more often ok? Haha. My white shirt was totally wet! Totally transparent but I enjoyed playing basketball with you guys..

FUN GAME AFTER ALL.

Alright, off to finish off my Director's script. Saturday and Sunday having our FYP filming!

Everyday, the very first 10mins before lesson is our puzzle fighter time.

"I met you as stranger and now you are my friend. As the world stands, our friendship never ends. All friends will never part and even if they do, they will always meet again"

- I met you as stranger and we became friends. We might be friends, but deep inside, you're someone really special. Someone who I always hold on silently and waited for a time to tell you all these while. Perhaps, as friends, be it in any case, I'll still stand quietly behind you and pray the best for you. It doesn't matter. As long as your happiness counts, I'm glad that you're doing alright. When you're sad, please remember that I'm always around for you.

2006-09-10T23:39:00.000+08:00

We had our project group, Neon Aurora meeting at SunTec MacDonald's for our M7 project 3. Doing short film. Argh. Another short film project. Plan till you die ar! Pre Production planning. - NIGHTMARES! Only people like us who is currently doing short film as our FYP gonna curse and swear at this project 3. Haha. Well, still gotta do the best out of it yea. :)

Later, we went to the arcade! Terence, Justin, Rudy and me were playing our favourite game. - OUTRUN 2! Hahaa. It was fun! We were like laughing and shouting away such as "I can SMEEELL YOU!" Hyperactive.

Rome, Justin and me brought back the TAMIYA FEVER!

Went down to Yishun today with Justin. To look out for Tamiya parts. Had lunch at Chong Pang Market, which I used to stay in Yishun. It's really nice and memorable. Heehe. I even went up to our previous apartment unit. COOL. The door knob, color of the door, gate and window grill is still the same. Misses that apartment. =) Some of the uncles and aunties still remember me! HAHA! Oh ya, we met Vio at the Chong Pang hawker Centre. COINCIDENCE! Of all places, we met her in Yishun!

So yea, met up with Rome and Gareth later and we intend to get to Paya Lebar to get some Tamiya parts. During the journey, Rome happened to recall about that Tamiya shop and we quickly alighted from the bus and went to that shop. Haha! I would say most of the surviving parts can be found in Yishun.

Set up the tracks and began playing with Tamiya. Crazy us pieced the circuit kinda big. It's a speed track. Sadly, my Tamiya car is for technical track and not for speed. So it's wasn't that powerful anyway =(

This joker, Rome.. Said that bus 804 will get to the interchange, and we took the bus. It went to Khatib and loop back to a opposite bus stop where we board the bus. I was like, this bus gonna take us freaking long and bitch with rome that if we were to take bus 800, by now we would have settle down in North Point with our KFC meals! Haha!

Kinda a fun day :) At least, a day for me to put all my project task aside and had fun :)

This stall is famous for its Soya Bean drink and Tau Huay.
Since young it's my fav store :)

2006-08-17T01:06:00.000+08:00

Sorry I didn't update for some time. Was so busy with my project stuffs. No time to blog!

Guess that things are going alright. What are you people goal in life? My goal I set is to enter into poly, in order to get back the same track as the others. I really have to enter into Poly no matter what. This is my very last chance. No matter what kind of situation or how hard it is. I must get things done 'swee swee' (nice nice) for this last final semester. Final Year Project is really very important. We gotta do it very very well. We choose short film and this short film is a very huge risk. It's teamwork and I'm sure all of us want to enter into POLY before getting into NS right? Extra 3 more years which can allows us to play TAMIYA and spend our youth before getting BOTAK. Getting into Air Force or OCS(for some of you guys wanna enter), since all of us share a common goal in getting into poly, then we really got to work hard for it.

On the other side, I am the only relative in ITE. It's like, so inferior. My cousins are in Poly, JCs, Under-grads and another is a dentist. I'm kinda pressure by this too. So this is really my only last chance to get into Poly. Sigh.

IGV, we failed our storyboarding just because of late assignment! We spent so much time doing the shot list, location planning, scene treatment, logline, outline and the storyboard. Yet we failed. It's not as if we are just slacking and lazy to do the work. Our classmates were all working onto it. Can't he just warn us or at least give us a chance, at least not by getting a ZERO? I mean better than a huge 0 like as if you didn't do any work right? At the end of the day, it is the students who will be leaving this school and get into poly / media industries. This IGV module is very important to us too. Just just happy happy to get B,C,D grade.

LORD! Please help us.

Rome and Justin are hook up with TAMIYA again. So do I. This Saturday gonna play TAMIYA. Hahah. Bringing all our old hobbies back into reality. Hehee.

Last Monday we had NAFA test! LOL. First time, we have all the 5 stations test in the same day. It starts with shuttle run, sit and reach, standing board jump, pull up and lastly 2.4KM! My result kinda lousy! ESPECIALLY Standard board jump.

Shuttle Run - 9.4s
Sit and Reach - 46cm
Standing Board Jump - 216cm(FAIL!)
Vertical Pull Up - 8 times
2.4km - level position 9.
Sit Ups - next week.

Right now, arm pain, leg pain, buttock pain, back pain, everywhere pain la! Everyone of us is walking like a penguins and became elderly people when walking up and down the stairs.

Shall end here anyway. :) Take care people.

Finally die-cock-stand Exam are over. Thinking back, I made a number of stupid mistake. Not that I don't know how to do, I was too excited over it that I make mistake in calculation. Well, no use cry over a spilled milk.

After this, we're left with another half more year then we graduated from school. Time flies right? It does. It seems that last year was like yesterday and how we get to know each other, where friendship start growing.

Class chalet coming up soon. Chalet discussion will be on tuesday. I'm quite worry about the fundings.

Over the period of time, I have not blog. Lazy to blog! I took some photos though. A picture will speaks a thousand words.. Heee.

Photos!

4 days before exam, went to Mr Dino's apartment to study..

Poor Hanling gotta wait for them to sort the papers before he can go off. LOL!

2006-06-14T19:34:00.000+08:00

Well. Another update from me.

Hmm. Today we had our Networking and Digital Media phase test.This morning, 9.15am, Networking Fundamentals phase test, it seems that I enter in with confidence but.. "GABRA-ZEBRA!" LOL~ We gotta change our IP address, install various application for "live stream braodcast", test it, configuring it. - in detail, gotta change ip address, ping to see if both are communicating with each other or not, install windows media services, disable IIS, enable HTTP, stream a media file across to test and video conferencing..

Initially, I was kinda "GRABRA ZEBRA" till my mind kinda blank and I was like, where the hell is MMC, and unable to install it. Later, I find that it's nothing as we don't have to use it. HECK CARE! *false alarm to myself". LOL. Wasted a bit of time though. Next, another of my GRABRA ZEBRA problem appeared. We gotta do a PUSH encoder and when I was doing the push on the Microsoft Server 2003, I remembered that when I do a push, I'd never came across such step 'leh' When I realized it, I was like, what the F. To do a push, just gotta open the Windows Media Encoder on XP, do the various configuration and start encoding! EASY!. ARGH~ My "GABRA ZEBRA" bring me one big round get to teh whole thing.

Later we had our DMT phase test. BOY! I'm so unlucky! It seems that I have problem with number 8! As my station is station number 8! Last week phase test 1, my station line in jack / soundcard had a problem, causing an obvious buzzing sound on my recording when dealing with the audio mixer. This time round, my PC unable to detect the DV cam! When i interface the DV cam, nothing pops up - not connected / communicating with each other. SO i restarted my computer, and it's still the same. Alright, so I was told to use my own videos from my portable instead of capturing it from the tape. It was kinda a simple editing though, as I don't have to cature, set in, set out, log clip, batch capture then record into tape again. Just export and submit the file. BUT AGAIN! I am so "UNLUCKY" to use tt com. JINX.

Happy Birthday to Terence, btw. =)

2006-06-07T18:51:00.000+08:00

UFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Miss me? I disappeared for a long time! This blog seems to be dead for a period of time! Haha! So now it's time to add some noise to my blog!

Exams are just around the corner. According to my 'SI BEI JIALAT' Exam meter, we left 14 days to Digital Media Technology Paper and 15 days to PC Networking and media services.

Had a game of floorball with my class against the engineering students during PE. If I not wrong, the score is 5-3. We won! haha! A pity that today's floorball will be the last game.

After PE, we had DMT Phase test. I'mTask is to interface the equipments and do the necessary settings on the audio mixer and the computer then start to record your voice using Sony Sound Forge. From there, import to Premiere Pro, add background music, audio transition then export as an audio file. I just listen to the recording and it was still alright.. Wasn't that good to me though. Didn't pay much attention to the beginning part due to time constrain, hence, I only put a 'fade in' in the beginning for a background music instead of both. Sigh~! After our phase test, we gotta make a mess out of it for the audio mixer for the 3rd batch of people. Haha!

This friday gonna be DMT theory test, next week gonna have DMT phase test 2, Media Services phase test 2 and Media Service class test! STRESS! Right now, I gonna do my piggy job. BYE~!

PHOTOS!

Well, yesterday... My classmates, Diana and Mr. Joel and I went to Esplanade for this talk about Filming and watch the film presentation by local young film makers.

Firstly, we met 5.30pm at Raffles City.. Mr Joel's dressing and his style is like.. Our age! There's no spilt between lecturer and students. Just like.. Pure friends. He gave me the dance studio name. Few of us gonna learn dancing.. Hahaa =)

Upon meeting, we went to the Satay Club and had a quick bite. WOW! He treat us Sugarcane drink. Haha! From there, we went to the Esplanade Library and that was when the Panel Discussion has started. Kinda boring though, especially that I couldn't sit still.. This women sitted beside me was laughing like.. WOOOOHOOOOHAAAHAAAHAAA..WOOOOHOOOHAAAHAAHAA! Her laughter makes me laugh like hell ! Hahahaa!

Watch the presentation on this "more than word" and "Pontianak". Quite an interesting film. After that, it's kinda late. Took some pictures outside the Esplanade Library. Lol.. We had one R21 shot, featuring RICKY!

Went down to Marina Square to have our dinner.. Found a good spot outside the food court, accompanied with the serene, beautiful and romantic sceneries of the CBD area! Nice places. Lol. Later some of them went to McDonald and I was on the phone.. Hehee! It was 11+pm and we took the night rider bus home.. Reached home around 1am! Damm late right? Haha. Really enjoyed myself with my classmates.. 7 more months to graduation...

We were trapped in the lift today.. AHAHAHAA!

Well, when going up to 5th floor for lessons, we took the middle left in the Business Block. Went up to 5th floor and decided to play with the lift! Unfortunately, no one presses the lift on our way up to the 5th level. Some suggested that we do down to Basement 1 (LG) and go up again.

For more THRILL! We agreed and went down. While at the 4th floor, with our techniques, we managed to by-pass the 4th level. And at the 3rd level. We did the same.. BUT JAMMED! LOL. The lift went out of service! LoL.

Trapped for 20mins. called for SOS to the other classmates but they couldn't do much either! Hahaa! While inside the lift we were trying to find a way to get out ar. Joking around and taking pictures and videos.

Initially I noticed the GAP.. I place my 3 fingers into the gap and spread my fingers open. I felt that the lift door is like.. can be opened very easily.. Spread my fingers wide to open the door.. With the help of Terence.. We got out of the lift! Hahahaaa! Finally we are out! LOL!

Trapped in the lift

Haha! Crapping and discussing a way out.

Calling for SOS and taking pictures around..

School reopened already! DMT lessons start at 12.30. Well.. We saw lotsa NEW FISHES! (referring to new intake students). Asked Rome how to say new fishes in Malay? The word is 'Ikan Baru' - new fishes!

After DMT lesson, while on our way for Media Services lesson, Terence and I played with Rudy's walkie talkie.. Turn on the walkie talkie then said.. "Oei... Jiak Bao Buay..?" Lol! When the person replied.. "Ler si mi lang? Lim Peh Jiak Bao liao..." Hahahahaha! We laugh till we peng! Somehow, a teacher over heard our conversation and radio to us "can the one who is playing with the walkie talkie, please stop it?" Hahahaha!

Media Services lesson was.. kinda restless. Perhaps, not used to the environment yet. Still on vacation mood. We gotta do researches and that's the very boring part of the it. After class dismissed at 5.30pm, right outside our class from 4th floor, Terence shouted "byeeebyeeee" to a women, 4 storeys down to the parking lot, she looked up, shouted BYEEEEEE! and waved back.. - At that moment, Terence went off and I was just behind him.. She thought I was the one who said Byeee to her and wave back to me instead of Terence!

Alright! shall end here. CIAO!

Back to school~!

That's what the construction workers like the put their walkie talkie!

After a long break from blogging.. This is a new post.

Tomorrow will be the reopening of the Gate of Hell for School , which means projects, assignments, researches and presentations will start to throw to us. =(

As for today! Terence and me went long distance cycling. Met at the Xinmin holding school, from there we cycle to Jalan Kayu, cut through seletar camp, exit to the country side road, then reach Yishun Dam. It's just a 30mins cycling lah. Quit fast.

While cycling, we saw a BANGLA cycling alone! I told Terence "hey, we zoom pass the bangla" Hahaha. And we zooooooooom past him. WOW! He did the same thing back to us too.. ZOOOOM past us but his orangish chain "clang!" dropped off. Hahahaha. He must be very 'pai seh'.

Upon reaching Khatib, took a rest bought a Burger. Intending to cycling down to Semabwang Beach.. BUT! Sky is so damm dark! - gonna rain. Dropped the idea and return back to SengKang.. Hahaa

While cycle along the country side road, Terence and I got chase by a dog. "faster! ride faster!" I thought what and the moment I turn around, I saw a DOG! We rode damm fast till the dog gave up on chasing us... Hahahaa!

Alright! Shall stop here then. CIAO!

We shall meet here with our cars next time. Alright?! =P

Went swimming at Jurong East with Terence, Simon and Shun Keat.

Agree to meet 12noon at Boon Lay. Simon woke up late and Terence was RC-ing at home. Terence came at 12.30. Simon and Shun Keat came at 1pm.

Went to JE Swimming Complex.It's my 5th time going since sec 3. We are cheapo! Hahaha. We paid children price of $0.80, instead of Adult fare - $1.50. $0.70 makes a lot of difference okay? It allows you to spend on your locker! Hahahaha!

VERY LITTLE PEOPLE OVER THERE! All the kids were schooling! Hahaha. So it's like the swimming pool are ours! Went to the Jacuzzi, Lazy River, Slides and the WAVE POOL! Hahaha. Were doing lotsa funny things like.. 3 person sharing 2 tube? Look at the picture then you will know! I guess I'm too light or smth. When I came down from the slide, initially I was lying down but fly to the front as soon as I came out from the slide! 180 Degrees to the front!

We played at the playground but got chase out by lifeguard.. Reason was that it's for 12 years old and below! Wah lau eh! Hahahaha. Went to Jurong Point for our dinner at 6+ then went home. Travelling to Boon Lay isn't that far anyway. Heehe. Just 1hr 10mins of train ride from SengKang.

Photos!

Were at the playground before we got F by a lifeguard [The water is actually sprinkling at our face!]

Lazy river!

Going up to the slides!

Lazying around the Pool!

Went to the SYF outdoor band competition at National Stadium with Terence, April, Shan Shan and lyn.

Hea-dek but memorable I would say.

Hmmm. Firstly, agree to me at 4.30pm at Kallang Mrt station.. Upon hearing my sister that gotta be seated by 4pm. As my sister's information is always reliable. And so, I messaged them to meet at 4pm and they couldn't make it. Changed the time back to 4.30 pm.

Around 4.30, they were still in Bukit Panjang area. Meet at the National Stadium instead. Watch the first competition school by Tanjong Katong Secondary School, but unable to enjoy it as we were seated at the side of the stadium. =( By the time they reached, it was the 4th competition group and the next compeitition group was their school. So we were in separated directions. From the 4th competition group onwards, Terence and I were at the Grandstand and they're just 1 entrance away from us. Aiyoh!
After the band competition.. Gonna meet at the First Aid sign.. BUT! they ran pass us.. Didn't notice us but I noticed them.. Gonna chase after them.. Thanks to Terence: "Aiyah.. No need to chase lah..." [Right terence?! haha] I stopped chasing. They went to find their teacher in charge and vice principal and never got back. Got stuck with the crowds.. Ended up at the bus stop, but got no idea where are they. So meet at Kallang Mrt station.LOL. Terence and I were soaked under the train while making our way back to the Station. Received some SOS calls from them, but unable to visualize where they were.. Hahaa. When we were at the first aid sign, they were kinda near to us. When they were at the bus stop and we were at the stairs, they were near to us too!

Finally we met at Kallang Mrt then went to Kallang MacDonald to have our dinner. LOL. We were just shy lah. Hahaa. But still manages to talk la.. I wonder what they put in the curry sauce. But it still taste like curry! Hahahaa. Also, were showing some lame videos from our classmates from my handphone. Time flies. Make our way home..

In the train, coincidentally, the moment I let go of the handle, the train jerked and I fell onto April and stepped onto her foot.. Aww. Hahaha.. Not on purpose!

Oyasumi!

"***gonna chill my toothbrush before I hit the sack** LOL!!!!!!! Good night to all my readers and thanks for reading. So long and good night, so long and good night.."

who's phrase was that? HAHAAHAHAHAAHAHA!

Yesterday I went back to Nan chiau High School as an Australian band and choir from Sacred Heart College came to our school for a music exchange.

WASTED! Should have wear my band uniform too. ARRRGH! Should have follow my juniors' advice..

Upon arrival, a short introduction, warm up with them then begin the concert. NCWO present 2 items, followed by Scared Heart College Band, Sacred Heart Choir, NC choir then combined.

The planning of the even is like.. So simplicity! Unlike our exchange with a japanese band end of 2002, we had sectionals together and combined performance later...

It touches the heart of the bandmembers at the end of the day. The Aussie people gave them their school badge which they were wearing, and some bandmembers gave them slide oil, valve oil?

Took lotsa pictures and videos, walked them down to the entrance of the school and bid them farewell...

Photos!

Initially planned to go to the gym with CHUNG to exercise and also to see that Loan Shark with his special 1-seater HASA CAR that gotta lock it to the side railing. Hahaha! Hmmmm. Perhaps when he see my name on registered at the gym member list as Ai Tong Seng, he balls dropped ar... Hahahaa!
