kids..

it's teachers' day tomorrow. What are you going to do to appreciate your teachers? Your discipler? Your coaches? Your mentor? Your swimming instructor.. ahemm.. your's truly. (hahahA)

At least for me, i am going to stay at home and rest, recover from my post competition syndrome. I am going to buy prolly more mentose for my mentor, i bet he'll kill me if he sees this. MENTOSE again! ya.. thanks Gary with a .. erm touching SMS?

n get many many decorations from my students? HAHAHA. sometimes i just don't know what to do with these presents. I mean i appreciate every single bit of these gifts, especially from the littles ones, but... it aint practical, i just leave it at one side. V v sweet of them.

I love recieving gifts! who don't?

OKOK, let me talk about the competition today. argh i find it kinda frustrating sometimes people keep asking me HUH? lifesaving got competition want meh? Thats when i got to start explainning, n yada yada.

I've once again beat my personal best for my individual event. Superlifesaver.Shaving off yet another 4secs. But of course, no medals lah. cos it's expected lah! HAHAHAHA! swimming is something tt's very much like.. a sense of accomplishment when you beat ur personal best on the day itself? It's just like.. you cannot win Michael Phelps in merely 1 year of hardcore trainning, swimming does not work this way. These pros are always there, you self-improve to beat ur personal best then eventually join them. That's how it works.

It was a really really close fight with NTU.I pull my hardest, i kick my best until my legs were all jelly, well, as a matter of fact when i came back, i blurted out too loudly, ARGH! tt NTU girl!!!!! so, yeah, sitting next to us happens to be all from NTU with eyes all starring at me. BUT ARGH who cares. For a matter of fact, NTU i am going to beat u next year. Just this split seconds merely because i have a shorter body length. We were on pile!! my manikin was on pile but you were taller, eeeeks, frustrating.

nonetheless, the manikin towing was dissapointing, it was supposed to be a medal-up for grab event but.. i think we were not even close to it. I make sure i was very very conscious that i do not DQ and let the entire team down, but because of some very silly action, we got DQ!! ARGH!

yea, and the duh-ness goes on and on.. rope throw both girls and guys.. we were so close to yet another medal. ARGH.

okay, we've our final beach events next week.I've my surfing. Let's give our best!

Do you know God has been very good to me recently? V good!

Today my niece and nephew have been good. Both of them appeared for lesson, usually they don't. Nicholas(their younger bro) is very keen in joinning them also. So coaching with both and playing with nicholas were fun.

Then, i rush over to my korean kid's place for more coaching to find that they have 1 more friend joinning them. So, i have a new kid added into the class. So instead of the $45/hr that i am earning, i am earning more! You see, God is good.
On top of that, that particular kid's mummy told me that she is keen and wants to learn also, she is getting a friend to come along.

Did i mentioned? Just last week when i went coaching, this lady appraoched me and told me her daughter wants to learn and together with this lady who approached and her friend.. so altogether 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 ! Alright, i haven officially taken up any, but.... i think it's too overwhelming, i am rejecting. Not that i am trying to boast how good i am, everybody wants to learn from me, but, just want to thank God for the signs that he showed me, even if i leave, many doors are still open for me!
God is good. Great results last semester.
Great friends.
Great lobangs, Maxie thanks for the event. It was really an eye-opener! WOE!
Great cell members.
:):):)

competition's tomorrow, i am not feeling it yet, but i know i've got to do well. DO WELL! the word is DO WELL!! It's the last time i forsee that i'll be representing RP in lifesaving, so i pray tomorrow, i'll swim my fastest, i'll breathe the least, i'll pull till my muscles tear, i'll do my power kick till my feet cant feel a single thing. I'm going to give my best tomorrow.

HAHAHA, Jin and Chris have got wild dreams while they were sleeping just few days back, HAHAHA. so funny. Jin dreamt tt she came in 3rd for her ironwoman, our manikin tow came in 2nd. Man, they are sure hyped up for DE DAY!

alright, if i can see it i can have it, tomorrow, i want to stand at the platform. HAHAHA!!!! i want to go bite tt medal! HAHAHA!!

10:15 pm

FYP grade's out!!! SEM grade also out!!!

Posted at Tuesday, August 26, 2008

Ok, i shall not post everything out. Cause i hate it when people tries to invade into my privacy.
Anyway, news really spread, even before i know my fellow friends already knew!
be it good news, bad news, ARGH! ANGRY! To whoever who went around spreading, i am telling you, I DO NOT LIKE IT. I don't need a loud speaker to help telecast my results.

OK, i must say i am pretty happy with the grades, didn't expected. Indeed all the hardwork is worthwhile. Anyways, my GPA barely increase by a little and tt's pretty dissapointing inspite of the results i am recieving. I was whinning for a good 1 hour!!! To everyone whom i see is online!

ARGH!!! I think my uni dreams are dashed.. bcos i calculated.. even if i get 5 As for next semester, my GPA will still be at a good 3.45 and that's if i get 5As!!!!!!! Ok, i am sooo frutstarted! increase by 0.1 ONLY!!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!!

now, tell me what should i do? it's neither here nor there.

I have very weak bones!!!!

I never like drinking milk, eating beancurd, eating beans, soya beans and yada yada. As a result, i have really weak bones? My teeth are weak too.

Merely 1 months time, 2 of my teeth chip off!!! so i need to visit the dentist! It's so costly you know. ARGH!!! Then also, i haven really notice how weak my bones were until tt day i was out shopping with ALIEN, she told me my knees kept producing those weird noise. -knuckles cracking- my joints are very loose?

So anyway, i became very self-conscious, the next day when i went to school, it was so quiet, every step i took, i could hear my knees, my ankles' knuckle cracking. When i enter the water, the sound gets magnified, the cracking of my knucles became so obvious, i start to worry.

Awwww.... it's really like.. every step i take, every move i make..
you can hear the sound... ya lo ya lo.. its kinda frustrating.
i am going to make drinking milo a everyday thing from today onwards.
As much as i dislike milk, i am going to do something. ARGH...........

i have weak bones!!!!!

i think.. it has been brought to my attention that i am really too caught up with too many things!

Even my holidays was pack. That's prolly because i plan before hand and thus pack the whole week so that it wil be fruitful and make the best out of my time rather than slacking and sleeping at home.

But... i remember i made a silent agreement that this semester i am going to give my best. I do not want to work. Just purely concentrating on my school stuff. Somehow along the way, i was given lots of assignment and since opportunities came, of course i agreed. But woe, it has been overwhelming, of couse i thank God for all this opportunities that come my way. I am worried, i really am. I mean next semester, i want to give it my all also. I want to move onto university! I need to do well.

Juggling so many on hands is definately not easy. lifesaving, 4 personal coaching, 3 class, Cell, Church, School, family, FYP, testes,guitar lessons, EVERYTHING.

Multiply my time.. will you? I barely get to breathe. I travel round and round.. I so hope that i can quickly get my driving license to help save time.

DINNER AT CAROUSEL

Posted at Thursday, August 14, 2008

Dinner at Carousel.It is Torpedo's Annual Appreciation Dinner. Parking was crap! Haha, if you've been to the multi-storey carpark at ROYAL SCOTTS at opposite Far East. It's absolutely CRAP! v run down. But.... when you touch the hotel lobby, it appears awesome, fantastic. Food at Carousel was GOOD! A wide range.. japanese, chinese, western, they have that chocolate fondue fountain, sushi bar with lots of sashimi, lobsters, oyster.. all the seafood you can find there! The prawns are fresh, simply awesome! Dessert was tiramisu and many many more! :) Great friends, great company, everybody was there!! Not a single empty chair, The moment you leave your seat for more food, the waiter would actually remove everything from your table, they would change the cutleries, yes, everything very well taken care off.

Then it was celebration for Sabrina's birthday who also happen to be around the corner, it was a pretty hillarious sight. The waiter and waitresses would all march in with the cake, and they sang some birthday song of which is really interesting! HAHA. i've the video. will upload soon.

Then it was a gift from Wei de and Shah and company, they went to queensway to shop for a gift for us! A CAP! embroided with our names! NICE NICE! i've been searching for a cap like tt for quite some time!!

SO after many photo taking session, we head down to a mini pub at far east.. drank a few sips of beer! played some silly games, photo-hunt, got zhi wang to bottoms up, then home sweet home in wei de's car. AHAHA. should have drank more!! :p lovely day.

1. Your thumb is nearest you. So begin your prayers by praying for those
closest to you. They are the easiest to remember. To pray for our loved
ones is, as C. S. Lewis once said, a 'sweet duty.' 2. The next finger is the pointing finger. Pray for those who teach, instruct and
heal. This includes teachers, doctors, and ministers. They need support and
wisdom in pointing others in the right direction. Keep them in your prayers. 3. The next finger is the tallest finger. It reminds us of our leaders. Pray for the
president, leaders in business and industry, and administrators. These
people shape our nation and guide public opinion. They need God's guidance. 4. The fourth finger is our ring finger. Surprising to many is the fact that this is
our weakest finger, as any piano teacher will testify. It should remind us to pray f
or those who are weak, in trouble or in pain. They need your prayers day and
night.You cannot pray too much for them. 5. And lastly comes our little finger - the smallest finger of all which is where we
should place ourselves in relation to God and others. As the Bible says, 'The least
shall be the greatest among you.' Your pinkie should remind you to pray for
yourself.

PRAISE

Posted at Monday, August 11, 2008

Initially i was feeling a little weird being planted in the middle of Aileen's cell. Reason being: I was unable to make it for my own anchoring service which was a big dissapointment.

Well, Aileen is the girl whom i brought to church and is still in church. My best friend, my confide, my very sporty friend. :) Brought her to church since CHC at jw first started. Days whereby we had fuhua revivial, we were still crazily enjoying and entertainning ourselves. We had so much fun priasing and worshipping, and every cell meeting, turn out to be a laughing session. We were very much young in the Lord. Totally oblivious of the surrounding, of the leadership, of the church.

We were seperated many years back because of the upteen times of reshufflement in ET zone. BUt nonetheless, we still stayed in close contact and were still best of friends together with Alice and Bernice.We take every opportunity to meet up and if possible sit together during church services. We were still very enthusiatic everytime we had the chance to go through the service together.

Years have passed, We've both grown up. More matured in the walk with God. With our own sets of problems, we were still praising God and worhsipping, this time round with the cry of our hearts, i know and i know. Enthusiastic... ermm.. perhaps to a certain extend. In my heart i just felt, man, we've really grown up. Now, helping in the cell, managing the cell members and carrying the burrden of the cell leaders and church.

Yes, much accomplishment when looking back from where we first started. The songs we sang were prettty much during our time. We had lots of fond memories and it was sure great praising God together with you! i want to priase God with you until we are old. Very old OKAY? :)

*clinging to the cross, i'll follow you

yesterday's service

i forgot wad are we doing.

but this is during my birthday. :)

after emerge a BIG hug.
my baptism.

we still had lay hwee and alice around then.

HAHA u see the sad moments, i would just keep it short, and keep it to myself. Well, i choose to share things privately. But when i am happy i am VERY HAPPY. God is good.

I was checking out SHING's blog and i am totally amazed by the miracles again and again how she got bless! Wah i was blown away. Totally amazing.. check out her blog for more details. So anyway, i was back to browsing my oakleys, checking out the models and sighing and feeling sad because that would mean burning a hole in my pocket..

the joy bursting from our smiles?

Jorin, myself & Xu sai!!!

hee hee. FYP is over and done with. Sooooooo happy...!

Was checking out from Jorin, whose one slot ealier than us with the same assessors, it was pretty different. They were told to draw out their block diagrams on the board while we were told nothing about it! Caleb being the microntroller's faci was impress. N that's amazing. He was really starring at the portion that i was presenting and i was thinking OH Gosh.. i can see questions coming. I look at him, and i smile, showing him my confident grin. Yup, no questions on codings, it was merely stupid questions that they were trying to force out because every assessors were told to ask some questions! Yeah, so we passed. It's over. Xu sai will be flying back to china for holidays while we will be back in the lab starting with FYP Part 2.

i awarded myself with a long rest, i slept the whole afternoon becuase i was simply deprive of sleep. My dad took leave hoping that we could go out somewhere but... he spent the whole afternoon watching me sleep.. HAHAHA!

thank God for the favour with the assessor. :)
final test for the semester tomorrow. Sales management. OK. give me another B+ for UT and GPA 4, here i come. achievable, attainable. I can do it! :)

Happy 85th grandpa!

mummy and grandpa

cousins

relatives amazed with bro owning a bike

lovely cousins

ok, my life is always amazingly filled with intersting events.
I thank God for it. Thurs was supposed to be yet another mundane day staying home doing the chores since i havent had much time to do those things n since i can start clearing "leave".
If you're an RP student you should understand this term.

SO, guitar class with Ken was cancelled so immediately Aileen and myself decided we should go do some work-out. So hiking up the Bukit Timah hill was our plan. Mark joined us since he's free also! So it was fun walking up the fligt of stairs, searching for interesting stuff as i move along, but it was tough for me since i am one who would quickly glance through. Mark easily spotted anything unusual. Man, i pray i will have such talent in time to come. I want to spot marine creatures while under the sea!!!

Ok, so it was dinner at the prata place. Mark ate some unusual food. Tulang? N back home and i went on my illegal driving once again. It's fun driving with dad sneakily trying to keep it low key and look very confident on the road. Oh ya, i went up to the express way also. Hehe.

Friday night was Rp mass swim, it was one day i'll remember as long as i live. Everytime it's lifesaving event, things like tt will happen, and it's scary. Once i drop it in my dad's car. Another time, i really lost it, wallet was picked up by a dragon boater, another one.. i misplace it. Everytime this happen it's like a nightmare to me. Scary, yes indeed.

Beach trainning on sat was amazingly crazy. The weather was an absolute madness, surf board rental was at 2pm, and the fact tt at 1030 we were already at vivo waiting, we head the beach, did many sets of surfing and we had so much fun trying to surf standing. HAHAHA. i got lots of pics to upload! After which, it was FOP, man the bus there was WOE. i literally ran for the bus 16 with the most unglam position one could ever ask for. Smelling that sourish armpit, i was so tempted to tap him and tell him, HELLO, but i am sorry, it smells kinda gross. Do u think u can put ur arms down?

Well, entry in was easy. I manged to sneak away from all the security checks. FOP was so-so this year except i really love the word! It was amazing! I had great companys beside me of course, janice and Justin were all excited and we just kept praising Him. Thank God for Aileen, i had a ride back from SIS. Amber's cell charter a bus, so no squessing onto bus 16 with tt ever unglam pose, rushing for last train and yada yada...

Sunday.... coaching for a straight 4 hours i almost died. mentally physically strainning. By the 3rd hour, i was stone. Tired is the word. Body is aching from beach trainning. Nose block. Phone kept ringing... I love my swim kids. so adorable! My korean kids are even funnier. They offered kim chi.. n i got my first pay from them! :) :)

hahaha. It's also my grandpa's 85th birthday! Had dinner at some lotus restaurant at Jurong area. Great catching up with my cousins, brunei kids... they had a motor bike thrill. Everybody loves sitting on a motorbike, so my bro brought them on an exciting ride. ok, so home sweet home and now i am half-unconcious. i am tired like mad!!!!!!

3 test to come, 1 fyp presentation this week. It's a final countdown!!!

HECTIC. HOT. TERRIBLE. EMOTIONAL!

ARGH! I GUESS I AM THE BLUREST PERSON U'LD EVER SEE!!!
SO ANGRY WITH MYSELF. BLUR BLUR BLUR BLUR BLUR!!!

It's RP very own and very first mass swim. We were all busy organising and running the event.
It was pretty much a success i feel. Victor wad there to support his "happy" friend. many other farmiliar faces were there too. Well, Alex on the mic, emcee for the day! He really lifted up the entire atmosphere with his lame jokes! Anyway, everything was fine until everybody's about to go. We helped to unload everything and bring our stuff back to the cage.

Suddenly i realised my phone's gone! I panicked. i ransacked all the bags, I SHOUTED I LOST MY PHONE!!! I used chris' phone to try calling. It seems like it's ringing... but it's just not getting it. Then i took her phone, went out scream and yelling with that poker face. :p

The first person i saw was mr coral reef, i wanted to .. ahh nvm. i was close to tears. seriously. I MEAN this is going to be the number 4 phone lost in a row ever since i step into RP. Furthermore it's new!!!!! GOSH. I saw Jin, thank God she gave me a hug and we went in search for the phone. I was so desperate, i knock on the gents, and i go.... EH GUYS! ANYONE TOOK A HANDPHONE PLEASE RETURN!!! while Jin went to the ladies. Man it was a daring act man.

i tried calling again by the time the phone's off. All hopes gone and all dreams are dashed. that's it i say. Arrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! i was super pissed off by then. I really didnt know what to do.

We went back into the cage and Jin was already lecturing the year 1s, bcos the highly suspected ones are them, we wanted to do a bag search already. I literally suspected everyone of them and i thought all trust is gone. I quickly search for the bags once again, for a moment, i was stun cause i see that brown little pouch untouched, phone's not off with many missed calls...!!! It was traumatising for me, for my friends and those who got ticked off by my dear friend, Jin.

Ok i am sorry guys, i am blur blur blur blur blur. Very blur.
sometimes i cannot help but to really hate myself for being the guillable and Blur lady. ARGH!!!
