central perk

HEHEHELLO to whoever bothers to read my noob lj. i now can't remember why i bothered to come back. kinda cuz i forgot i had it for a while. (the livejournal account, not the other meaning of lj) BUT MOVING ON...

yeah i have been having that song(together in electric dreams) stuck in my head. and i can't remember the lyrics past the first few lines and the chorus. yeah its kinda lame sounding but still somehow damn shiok too, err like "oh when i'm in army i'll think of you guys in my electric dreams" whatever the hell electric dreams are. another reason why i'm missing that song is duh cuz i missed out on that mambo night that i paid for and "enjoyed" outside zouk, on the floor, on some seats and being a real life wax figure for people to pose with.

somehow i haven't been super bored these holidays like rotting at home or anything. thank goodness for PUSHING DAISIES which i swear people shld watch! don't spend too much time on those sappy jap/korean/tamil(for thiru) dramas which make you have uhh unrealistic expectations of people and relationships and blah blah blah this blah blah blah that the guy is so cute, the couple is so sweet. UGH. hahaha okay maybe i'm just half jealous i can't understand shit.

so, yet again i think i'm just typing here in a hope that you guys knew i wasn't dead(at least not yet cuz i haven't entered army) OH yes and to call me out before i go in so that i can have more things and people to miss when i go in. i dunno what for la. and damn it i'm still not fit yet, still haven't finished getting stuff for that amazing 2-year chalet, and somehow don't feel as christmassy as previous years. hopefully these last few weeks will be a blast before i embark on Operation:Sausagefest 09-10.

to all those i might not see again this year, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR! i'll see you in oh-nine yo.

lurbe lurbe, kish kish. MUAKZ

seriously. have you seen darius vassel? freak man. its timbaland i swear. okay this was random la but i promise to put pics of taiwan FOOD up soon. if not just go facebook la

hello hello. long time no see. long time no hear. so now i'm here i can get to tell you about the horrible mass i had to sit through last Sunday morning. i think you mention the name Fr Augustine to anyone who goes to OLPS and they'd just cringe. yes he's THAT bad. i mean i'm sure you've heard of your normal naggy priests and all telling you to dress decently blah blah blah. but HIM. he's da man la seriously. he has a great ability of giving such engaging homilies(i hope that's how you spell it) i actually felt like i was living in the biblical times as he talked at such a pace even Dr Tan Eng Liang would get bored and sleepy. plus it doesn't help he tries to be a little dramatic in his speech and chooses to d-r-a-a-a-g over words with mul-ti-ple  s-y-l-l-a-b-u-l-s. well now that's over and done with. okay it kinda seems super duper trivial and i know i'm not doing much favours trying to advertise for my faith or anything. but blah to that. cuz he really spoilt my sunday morning and lost my will to sing in church! ...or try to

in other news, i FINALLY got my enlistment letter. thanks to mr lim lian kai who msged me about his enlistment date. so its set then.
9th January 2009.
i mean is that suck or what! haiya. and special thanks to goh siwei who told me about his dream of me dying. according to him, it was "damn funny sia"   TEE HEE HEE! (i think i'm getting very sleepy now so i shall stop and just hope you'll all help me spend my post a's pre NS time in the best possible way!

things to look forward to on my 19th birthday:
1) being botak
2) spending it with many many other botaks
3) having a camera-less phone
4) wearing 1,000,000,000 shades of green
5) savouring the last year my age starts with a 1 and ends with a teen.

uh, kinda lazy to post anything much but my sis sent me the link to these photos from F1. pretty effing nice!

blah blah this will probably be another one of those posts talking about prelims and how badly everyone's done. ah well at this point in time i don't think there's anything else we'd be really concerned with la huh. about 30+ days to the big A's. how do i fare so far? except for the math, i think the rest aren't in the slightest bit close to getting that magic 4A's in a levels. okay so my lucky coin agreed with me saying that i'd get 5A's... but, ah heck. to all my friends out there who're really down about your results and all, i know its easy to say but, DON'T BE. as everybody says as well, only one month more, yadayadayada, tahan until after A's to just throw away all the books and let your hair down! and i'm pretty sure if we all keep plugging away and mugging it'll all pay off in the end. as mr teo says "don't worry, if you all don't know how to do something, chances are people in XJC, YJC, ZJC also don't know how to do it one..." yeah some wise words indeed.

so formal school with lessons and all are also coming to a close... on like this friday. it'll be a bunch of mixed feelings la i guess. its kinda sad that it'll be no more of oh-so-lovely vj with all your friends you see around in school every day, the stupid things we do, the stupid teachers who hide among bushes in the mornings, or those who tell you about how their grandmothers can run/jump/pull up better and faster than you. i'd even miss chan poh meng.......'s SBS bus driver outfit that he wears. okay no i won't miss anything about him. but on the other hand, i can't wait to kinda move on to the next phase in my life, after school, without chinese lessons. oh wait, i just realised moving on into the army, it'll be kinda similar to vj in a certain way. i'd still be training about 6 days a week, and instead of being under just ONE tan yew hwee, there'll probably be about a million more in the same mould ordering us about. oh crap  might just take back what i said about looking forward to leaving vj. and it doesn't help that today's front page on the Home section is about another soldier who died doing pull-ups. so okay mr goh, maybe your grand mama is a superwoman afterall. for all the pull ups she does and to still survive. kudos to her.

i think i kinda forgot what was the main thing i wanted to say, or if i had anything to say at all. but all i know is now we're in that mircale-making phase. those still slowly chugging along(that includes you, nick. i mean me la) remember it only takes a spark to get the fire going! (oh my goodness i took that from a hymn) sooooooo, JUST WHACK.


this is just random la. but very funny, from Step Brothers!
oh yes and to all my muslim friends, selamat hari raya!

uhh okay so i've been getting a lil lazy to type out anything these few days. but just thought i had to share this clip of the happiest babies around. just looking at this baby laugh makes you wanna laugh too (and some people wanna be moms just as much)
 does this kid make your day or what..

oh oh yes and dennis, chia found a clip of you when you were a baby! click here to watch...

  wah finally man after dunno how long i get to use livejournal again. silly com just doesn't want me here. maybe its cuz of all my pretty rubbishy posts that i put up. so i swear today won't be about football (bloody liverpool) or about uh... i dunno.

  anyway what i've been wanting to write about was that oh-so-lovely post that nazri introduced to me about some religion shit. i mean religion. click here to read it! it was basically about these posters that this prayer group in vj put up around school la, and the comments that were to follow just came and came like no tomorrow. poor guy felt ogliged to reply as many as he could i think. i mean his posts are like freaking G.P. essays (cuz it's probably double the length of my average piece of work and three times the quality) if i didn't know better i'd think he has a huge ass head that contains britanica encyclopedias inside. but then that's not the important thing. to me the most entertaining(to me at least) bit of the post was the comments itself. it started off fine with people just giving their piece of mind, and then it kinda got blown out of proportion when some people got a bit offended. kinda got too personal at some points as well. ze best was when my dear friend Jamir (you rock by the way) gave his views on the whole thing. to me it gave the whole discussion a more balanced argument, don't ya think? all we need are some buddhists and hindus to share their thoughts and you'd have a lovely reference for your next g.p. essay on religion. to me i don't think they meant any harm at all putting up those posters (though it was a teeny weeny bit inappropriate FOR ME) and hey, its just a silly post about some posters and some silly people getting overly sensitive, so may i just suggest to those people (messrs gay that includes you) to MOOOOOVE OOOONNN and keep being very happy. cuz i'm happy you're happy. and let daryl be daryl. i just pray you don't come and scold me the next time i see you.

  blah blah blah. tomorrow's my last paper. geog paper2. thankfully we kinda had the weekend to read up on all our human geog, but then again i think it's the last paper syndrome. HOW TO KEEP FOCUS YOU TELL ME? from quite a while ago i've already been thinking of what i wanna do post prelims, and also in the midst of studying for prelims i kinda realise how bad i'm gonna do for it. so then i promise myself i'll do this and do that and read this and read that so i'll make up for lost time on whatever subjects by this time and that. knowing that i'll probably not stick to whatever timetable i've put in place. though i think it would be nice to actually finish reading my great ex. yes, that book.


on for "step brothers", anyone?

to the bulk of our prelim papers
to our a's
to the long awaited holidays
to more friends passing their driving
to TAIWAN
to tekong (or some other lousy camp)

okay its just that i was listening to the song just now la. and it has nothing to do with anything i'm writing about. so finally i'm able to post something up here, or so i hope. my damn com's been forbidding me to do anything on LJ. so now that i can i'd like to take the opportunity to complain about how i'm not used to my dad's phone that i'm using now. how i wish i still had my sony ericsson phone, then i can still upload pictures and music so so much easier onto the com. which means i can't show ya'll the lovely burger party we had last weekend to celebrate my bro and sis birthday! and it also means i can't share the pretty funny pic jiawei and i took with miss wong on ( teacher's day )before i end of and try to get down to the books, this is reminder to self and other friends reading this that we MUST go cycling after prelims/a's. haha oh and it won't hurt if any of ya'll wanna donate your bikes/buy me one yeah. remember giving is always better than receiving friends. by the way, 12 lotus seems like an okay movie to catch. so jio me if you plan to go watch yes!

err i guess that's how symbols sound to some people. anywhoos to all of you who watched the beijing olympics opening ceremony, you must've been in awe right? shit. i mean even though i don't think too highly of china the country, PROPS to the organizing committee man! didn't watch all of it, but what i saw really made my eyes pop out. hopefully the ang mohs won't see chinese as people with no eyes and cheap labour. ah well, luckily i didn't watch the NDP parade. i probably would have been really really really disappointed. okay here's to a lovely olympic games! (not that i really care for singapore athletes, interested in watching athletics that's for sho!)
