31 January 2009

Well, we did have the reunion.
YAY even though Gewei was like late so it spoiled the day a bit.
Had breakfast with Mark at Yakun Kaya toast.
Wth, we ordered 4 slices each so that totals up to like 8 slices in total.
But we didn't know one slice is like so much... we cannot even finish, what a waste of money.
Wuqi chose to ate Texas chicken meal at Long John instead, rich kid... hahahahah :D

yeah, played bball with the three of us first.
Saw the cheena s2 guy who suanned us last time when he won us. Bugger...
At least we thrashed him soundly now.
nick join us later, yay. At least he is not the latest this time.
Yu heng and Wei Sheng joined us later, quite random but yeah...
Liu Gewei finally made his grand appearance at 10:45am when we were supposed to play at 9am???
Well, at least we did have a reunion.
Very fun, just like the good o'days. Pity we didn't play together though, broke up in teams of 3 and played against each other.
Hope we still can play together for years to come. :D

Had a bad stomachache later and was late for meeting Jia Lei, Shannon and yeah.. the ventures.
I only went because i had nothing better to do and I am joining ventures just because I went for the outing.
Don't get the wrong impression pls.
yeah, anyway ate pastamania for the first time. freak la, I was looking for a budget lunch.
Too bad I was late or else I would have chose budget foodcourt lol.
played bowling and pool at CSC.
Bowling was crappy, totally sucked only got a scored of 61.
Well, Jia Lei got gutter for like 8 turns so yeah, I think I am not that bad.
Sorry, Jia Lei! :D

Proceeded to pool later and won every single game, woohoo.
think my pool skills are improving.
Attempted jump shot for the first time and I nearly succeeded in pocketing the black ball in.
Not bad, I didn't think I would like pool that much.
All went home later on.

Went to some restauraunt called The Village beside Jurong Bird Park.
Wow. so much for meeting at 6:30pm. they started coming at like 7:15.
Oh wells...
Only 3 families went, quite boring...
Quite shocked that Aaron said that I was a bastard cause I didn't give him 2 bucks for his kiddy rides even though I supposedly agreed. Misunderstanding..
Suprised that he knew the word and can't believe that he is so pampered man.
I guess he will mature when he moves on from p4. Hahahahah.
Make myself seem to be so mature.

Cannot believe that school is starting like on Monday.
The feeling will be different though after a four year all guys education at SJI.
HAhaha, ruebengan said it is better to a bachelor as you can look at girls freely without fear of your gf bitching at you and all.
Quite true and don't really see the point of having a relationship now. Not yet anyway.
Should be making more friends instead. :D

Got awoken by Jon in the morning at like 7:20, asking me where I got posted to.
Checked the message on my phone...
MOE: LEONARD ONG WEI JUN, you are posted to CATHOLIC JC, SCIENCE (23S) under 2009 JAE. Pl report to JC/MI on 2 Feb 09 at 7:30am.
Right, I was not really estactic to begin with but yeah still got into my first choice.
Looks like Gabriel Goh, Shannon, John Mak, Bryan Tang, Tseng.. blar blar is joining me there.
Damn, this feels like an extention of SJI man.
I wasn't anticpating all the NJC/VJC rejects to go to CJC man.
This will feel like SJI again, same old people get same old awards blar blar blar...
I knew beforehand that CJC would be simliar to SJI but not so much to this extent.
Totally ruined my mood man..

Wanted to go back to sleep but got awaoken by all the frenzy going on in MSN.
Met up with Nick for breakfast instead at Macs.
As usual, he is late..
Had the budget $2 meal. Been a while since I last had one.
Went back home and stoned/play com/watch tv.
Dull life I have since work ended.

Decided to go out since there's nothing better to do.
Went out with Nick to hunt for his bag/hoodie which turned out to be erm. I won't use the word fruitful here.
Queensway was the first stop.
He goes to one shop and after seeing the girl "kop" his brown backpack, he wants to leave queensway already. LOL! I decided to buy myself a grey pair of sneakers on the way.
Wanted to buy sports shoes as well but heck, that can wait.
And yeah, have no idea why I felt so breathless then.
Damn ashthma, really pissing me off.
The timings of these attacks are really random and throw me off guard.
Guess it is time for me to bring an inhaler wherever I go for emergencies.

Went Raffleslink to look at Topman hoodie. Unfruitful search. Don't have right size.
Zap, we are gone in 20 min.
Next stop, Topman near Bugis. Don't have right size too.
Zap, we are gone again in 20 min.
Next stop, Plaza Sing. The bag looks a bit too erm... not nice. so next....
Gone again in about 20 min.
Final stop, Vivocity.
Yes, he finally got what he was looking for.
A top class $53/$56 dollar black hoodie!!!
Hooray!!
That is what I call speed shopping, shop don't have, move on man!
Right, all of this was done in about 3 hours of mad travellling around.
At least I know where to go to buy all my stuff now.

Hmm, thought about what CCA to join when I go CJC.
Preferably basketball but I doubt I stand a chance.
Soccer as goalie, but maybe fourth choice.
Damn, I am like sub-standard in like every sport.
Really limiting my options man.

Going to play basketball tmr morning with hopefully the long awaited reunion of the five of us.
Wuqi, Nick, Gewei, Mark and I.
Still remember it all started when Nick asked Mark and I whether we wanted to play basketball in S3. Thought that nothing would come out of it but hahaha it has been almost 2 years since we last played.
The good o' days. We had our times, the ups of winning teams we thought we couldn't win and the downs of getting totally humiliated by our opposition.
Well, you still got the highlights of me being injured here and there and Mark been completely owned by the guy.. totally smacked the ball on his face man. Ouch..

Yeah, hope that Nick can make it tmr to make it a reunion of the five of us.
hope you are reading this Nick, hahahah. :D

Been feeling a bit better since taking the medicine but still feel a bit groggy and dazed out.
It has been quite a while ever since I last slacked at home.
I am just plain bored at home.
There's nothing to do, except watching tv, playing com and sleeping.
Decided to tidy up my room and found a few sec 1 and sec 2 essays I had.
Hahahaha,
The title: "Have you acheived anything you thought the impossible?"
Hahahaa, I wrote that essay when I was in sec1.
Felt a sense of nostalgia now after reading that essay.
Four years have indeed passed by pretty fast and I am glad to be part of the SJI community.

Moving on, Mark called me to play pool with Ying Zhang.
My record 5-1.
Lost to Ying Zhang, lol.
It was like his second time playing pool. Can't believe it.
Would like to say sorry to Jon about not wanting to go to his house to sleepover.
Just feeling a bit burned out and lethargic for the moment.
hope to see the magical 3 letters. CJC on my handphone screen tomorrow.
Good luck to those waiting for posting results too. :D

Guess that working at NTUC and frequent late night outings have finally taken it's toll..
I have fallen sick! Damn, at CNY somemore..
Well, at least I can finally rest at home now.
Cannot remenber when was the last time I actually stayed at home the whole day before starting work.
Went to see the doctor today because of my damn asthma attacks.
Why do I get relapses at random timings? The weather is not really that cold now anyway.
He reccommended me to go swimming to "expand" my lungs?
well, I am not really keen on swimming but looks like I have to pick it up as a hobby if I want to be completely cured of this irritating illness.
Been feeling groggy and all after the medicine and I play fifa online 2 when I am awake.
Sigh, hope I recover soon before school starts. :(

26 January 2009

Too emotional about work yesterday to blog about my reunion dinner.

So I shall update now!

Well, rushed back after work to my grandmother's house.

So tired that I fell asleep on the train ride and woke up at Marsling.

Had to take back to Admirality. lol, that was retarded.

Nothing much to describe, just that my p4 cousin Aaron got a lot more fatter and my 14 months old cousin just looks so cute. (=

We tried making her smile though but it just proves to be an impossible task to do.

Nothing much happened at reunion dinner though, just eat and all.

As for today, yeah more cousins came so I finally got more people to talk to.

Talked to jonathan, my cousin from RI who just keeps bugging me about girlfriends and all.

Well, I think he's the one who has one. hahahahah :D

Just stoned and watched some show on Channel U.

A lot of steamy scenes here and there which explains why my cousin Aaron is so horny now.

"Eh, go watch tv. Got sexy woman."

Wth man, that is way too much coming out from the mouth from a p4. :D

Got too bored and played Chaptei with Jonathan outside.

We suck man, can;t even get to 5 consecutive kicks.

O well, we are not really the type that excels in sports.

Was supposed to go to my auntie's house and well, my father said that he was sleepy and thus, didn't want to go. So anti-social one.

yeh, a bit pissed at why he didn't want to go but I guess he is just tired out from work.

Very very bored now but at least my cable is fixed now!!

Football channel here I come! :D

Anyway, not feeling lazy now so shall post some pics.

Chang's Bday Cake. How long ago was that..?

Cool crab at work. Notice the different coloured pincer??

Bus ticket to Clementi MRT. That cost me $1.30...

Used to sit here crapping with chang, Salina and Yu Xuan. Ahh, the good old days...

Goodbye....

My resignation letter....

Auntie Chew Wan and me. Last time wearing the apron. Aww..

Cool, a mini model of my father's company bus.

That's about all the pics.

Shall go and watch tv now. :D

Into the Night. 6:10 PM

24th Jan 2009.
Where was I? Yeah, the tahiti part.
No one was willing to share much and it got pretty dull and all.
I played showhand like 4 times and still didn't lose. what luck I have, hahahahah. :D
Gave up on that and just started crapping around.

Well, girls have very good memories.
Still cannot believe that I can only recall like 1/4 of the things Brit mentioned about DLS life.
Interesting to note that there were so much gossip and crap about love in primary school.
Wow, I must be like so innocent back then. Still innocent, anyway. ahahahaahha :D
laughed at the part when she mentioned the injection thing that everyone had to go for in primary school.
Hahahhaa, the girls cried when the needle haven't even touched their skins.
Mentioned my disasterous vomitting incidents.
Hmm, still suprised at why the vomitting incidents turned out to be such a joke.
Nurse poke needle into wrong hand in China.
Nearly puked (or did I?) on a girl chasing after me for a survey when I was on the verge of vomitting. Hilarious man, seriously still can't understand why she pestered me when my hand was already at my mouth. Maybe she was asking for it, hahahahaah :D

Morning bball with Nick's cousins/uncle were up next.
Mark pang sei because of some grandfather death anniversary thing.
Nothing interesting..
Still need to work on my jumpshots though.
Work at 2 pm to 10pm.
I slept at my break instead of eating, I was really bushed.
NTUC farewell gathering turned out to non-existent because Chang injured his leg at chalet and decided not to go for work. yeah, so much for the hype about it.
I was really looking forward to it but I guess no one was really in the proper mood for it anyway.
Yuxuan needed to go to M'sia while Salina was "tired?" really cannot tell the difference then.
Still so chatty and all, hahhahah.
Knocked out on the MRT ride home and at home too.
This feels worse than a camp but it has more meaning to it though rather than just following some boring old routine from camp organisers.

25th Jan 2009.
LAST day of work.
Thought I should end off my work day on a good note but I was late again!!
Work supposed to start at around 8am to 4pm but I woke up at 8:40am instead.
ahahahahaha so much for being early :D. That was like my hmm, 24th time late.
Beat the record of being late of 1 hr 40 min as I was at Sentosa that day by a margin of half an hour. Need to cut this bad habit out man.
Blar blar... quite dull at the start actually, the New Year collection was at a snail's pace as compared to the Christmas one. really miss the days man.
Only got quite emotional near the end, at about the last hour of work.
cannot believe that it is my 9th week of work already.
remembered the clueless days where I got stumped by a customer asking where was what but I consider myself a veteran now. ahahaha :D
Meiji milk stocks, chicken wings, cheese slices, crab sticks, otah, pound cakes, cuttelfish balls, whipping cream, nuggets, mixed veggie, ice creams, drinks, tofu, hams, the list goes on and on..
the things that I have packed.

I wonder how many cardboard boxes have I discarded already. Must be able to fill about 10 rollcages already, ahahahahah. Sigh, it is so much of the work, it is the people.
It amazes me on how they can put a smile on their faces in front of demanding customers when they all lead such sad lifes.
They are really really strong people.
All in all, I miss the people in the frozen department the most.
They treat me very nice, only asking me to help out when they are tired so that leaves me walking around most of the time.
Oh yeah, had one super kaobei customer today.
I already passed her the sakae sushi yusheng and done. transaction complete!
And she goes on and demands a change of yusheng after she breaks it herself???
Wth, cannot stand high class snobs like that. Sem was really really pissed but still put on a good show in front of her. And wth man, she wasted half an hour of our time and decided to for a refund. gee, why can't she ask that from the start??

When Sem asked me How do I feel at my last day at work.
I answered him. "Sad, haahhaah. I am about to cry now." in a joking manner.
But the thing is I was overcome with emotion, I didn't shed any tears there though.
had a chat with him and Kalai (uncle-nephew relationship) and gave him a fleeting wave as a farewell. Said bye to Mr Wong and Chia too. Could tell that he was sad too but Winston comes along and starts repeaing what we say and hahahaah, the mood was broken.
Went up to the staff room for the last time and told the security officer that this was the last time that he is going to sign on my name again.
Damn, people might think that I am the happy-go-lucky type of person but I am really overcome with emotions now. )=
There are many countless things I havem't mentioned. The constant crapping with the promoters, teasing Eugene over Angeline with Chang, deciding where to go for dinner with Hui Sin and Yu Xuan, helpng the cashiers take the abalone from service counters...
Why do I keep dwelling on this??
Whatever it is, NTUC fairprice toa payoh branch will hold a special place in my heart.
I leave with a heavy heart and will definitely drop by and visit them but the feeling would be different though as I don't have to wear the apron ever again.
I did mention to Mark that this was going to be a picture post but heck, almost all of them are camera shy and I am just plain lazy to upload the pics now. :)
Shall go and catch up on my sleep now for CNY tomorrow.

Happy New year, people. Hopefully, my blog post won'd dull your mood for CNY. =)

Into the Night. 9:23 PM
_________________________________________________________

Well, the mad 3 days frenzy of partying didn't turn out to be that hectic but still, it is tiring.
It all started on 23rd.
Third last day of work there, took the morning shift.
Just helped Auntie Liza with the chicken wings and all, Nothing much to note.
Went for a haircut immediately after work, it was done in 5 min time.
woah, the place need to insert $10 note one. cool.
Jiu ying was shocked when she saw me. Thought I was a different person as she just saw me with long fringe like10 min ago. Find my new haircut a bit too schoolboyish, I look like a guai kia, man.

Met up with Bryan Tang and John Mak at BK.
Went to Peninsula later to shop for clothes (me), jeans (tang) and guitar stuff/band shirts (John).
wow, they sell really cheap guitars there. I was suprised when I saw that the guitar cost 45 bucks. Was tempted to buy it but Tang and John advised me against it. Was pondering whether to get a guitar but decided to think it over and not just buy it on the spur of the moment.
Bought a round neck tee, tang got 1 pair of jeans and John got his capo thingy (guitar stuff)
Went upstairs to look for band shirts, pity that the Saosin shirt had the "i" as a hooded figure which totally ruined the shirt.

Wuqi came along with me to Marina Square later.
Just basically walked around, looking at clothes and all.
Totally regretted buying my black hoody at Peninsula last time as the Zara hoody looked damn nice and only cost like $80. Looked like it cost $180 man.
Dang, should have waited.
Saw Gail on the way out of Marina Square.
She was with her friends so we didn't get to talk to her.
It was hilarious though when she said hi to us and the guy beside her (should be her boyfriend) started erm holding her hand and touching her waist after that.
Hahahah, Wuqi and I were laughing all the way on the train ride to Clementi about that.

Supposed to meet with Michelle and co for pool where Wuqi and I will leave while they go for sleepover.
Wasted a lot of time blar blar blar. Anyway, there is one recently renovated mall beside the Mrt.
Nothing much there but still better than the old torn down place that used to be there.
Played pool later for about one hour. The usual happened..
Somehow got convinced to go to the sleepover and yeah, suddenly found my way to a guy's house whom I barely knew for about an hour. He's my future schoolmate there anyway provided that I get into CJC.
Just read on the papers that they will send the sms at 8am. Imagine yourself waking up not to your alarm but a message that tells you what school have you been posted to. Hahahha, can totally ruin your day at the start. Hope to see the letterings CJC on my phone screen on 30th.

Same old happened at the sleepover well not excatly.
Anyway, went to Nathaniel's house. woah, his house can be compared to a chalet man.
Totally has the whole set of stuff to entertain youself with.
ps3, mahjong, wii, table tennis table , blar blar list goes on....
Started off with werewolf game, dull man.
Played some water game after that where everybody take turns to pour water into the glass, which is in a basin, till it sinks. If you are the one who sinks it, you do a forfeit which is like a fear factor horror drink.
Well Jiasheng enjoyed his concotion of orange, soya bean and corn flakes. (Undissolved) and asked for another cup. So much for a forfeit. lol.
I got the forfeit next which turned out to be some chilli padi drink with soya juice and lime.
Damn, how the heck did the seeds turn out to be crunchy? Sick man.

Told horror stories at the kitchen when the lights were out in the kitchen.
No good ghost stories and i keep missing out on the climax of the ghost stories I told.
Damn. It is strange that I get goosebumps when I tell the stories but I don't when people tell theirs. Freaky.
Went down to play some card game, lasted till Macdelivery came.
Apple pie is delicious, haven't tried one in years..
rest started falling off to sleep one by one until we were left with Kenneth, Chee Kheong, Jia Sheng and Brit. Played mahjong for like 2 hours and CK knocked out when I got back from the toilet.
Played Tahiti Truth or dare style or rather just truth where the loser has to share something about himself.
Categories were like Love, Family and friends.
Well, I didn't even lose once so I didn't get to share. ahahaha
This is turning out to be a long long post. Shall start another blog post, part b coming up...

21 January 2009

Ok, I am back home now after a crazy sleepover at Marcus' house.
We awoke at around 3 pm to have...
ANOTHER round of mahjong!!!
wthhhh, mahjong again. I swear we are becoming mahjong addicts.
Anyway, wuqi was damn lucky yesterday.
He got 7 tai for one round and 5 tai for another.
Very very nice.
As for me, I almost got 13 yao. Only needed one nan, fa and one tong to get it.
3 one tong was out already, then Jia Sheng go eat the last 1 tong.
I was like wth??
Wasted my chance already.
Played till about 5pm and abandoned thoughts of playing bball coz Mark is LANNING.
So much for quitting LAN, lol.

Decided to go CSC to play pool instead with Wuqi and Jia Sheng.
And yes!!!! I finally beat the great Lim Wuqi in pool.
It was a competitive match with him winning it for me by putting the black ball in with the cue ball.
He trounced me later on, I got like 4 of my own balls left.
Well, last match. Same thing happened. Nope, he didn't thrash me.
He won it again for me!! HAhahahaa
Played pool for about 1 hr.
Well, this pool outing was fun as there was no dilly-dallying around.
very straight forward and fast.

Got work tmr in the morning, I hardly know anybody there in the morning shift.
At least, no more retarded new year counter for me!

Into the Night. 9:19 PM
_________________________________________________________

This is my last week working at NTUC fairprice.
Time really flies, 9 weeks there in a flash.
The most memorable times spent at work were the hectic days at Christmas Eve and Christmas.
wow, I spent about 3 hours in the freezer room. Madness.
The gay guy who pissed me off at the counter.
Still quite suprised by myself that I stuck to the job especially the boring counter job.
It is my colleagues that I am going to miss though, not so much of the work.
The good times that we had together,

Chang, my classmate for 2 years. Funny to laugh about his failed attempts. :p
Yuxuan, just can't stop talking about GAYS and the first girl i know to be so tall. She's like the same height as me! wow..
Salina, very very sociable. She just can't stop talking and I always end up talking to her on the bus ride home rather than dozing off. Very nice person
Kalai, my slacking mate at the counter. He does the morning shift at the counter and I do the afternoon shift.
Eugene, left like 2 weeks ago but well still enjoyed the times we crapped with him and Chang.
Sem, my boss. Good to work under such a nice man for my first job. Coincidentally, I am the first part time guy he hired.
Elishia, my shi jie. Well, my time at frozen was much spent with her. Always crapped around with her when there is nothing to do.

There are still many of my colleagues of which I haven't mentioned.
People like Raj, Chia, Mr Wong, Winston, Pei Qi, Jiu ying, etc.
The list goes on but it was a great pleasure to know all of them.
Sigh, it feels terrible saying goodbyes but we all have to move on...

Shall blog a bit about yesterday.
Was supposed to get a haircut yesterday at 10:40 am with Chang.
O well, we were late and I didn't get my haircut.
Went to play pool with Chang, Bryan Tang and Wei Sheng at SnookerZone at Toa Payoh.
Went off to work as usual.
Finally, last day at boring New Year counter!!! woohoo.
Went to Marcus' house to sleepover with Marc Chan, Wuqi, Jia Sheng, Lee Chuan and Marcus.
Just played mahjong for like 6-7 hours.
Wuqi and I went to sleep at about 6:30 to 7.
Hahahah, we were suanning people and kept laughing like mad til lwe cried. hahaha
Still at his house now and going to leave soon to buy my New Year Clothes.
The rest are still playing mahjong now and I am going down to bug them for my turn now.
Should be updating when I reach home.

17 January 2009

Been a while since I blogged.
Shall update about the past 3 days.

14th Jan,
Woke up to find a mega ulcer at my mouth.
Was supposed to meet up with Wuqi, Jon and well mostly scouts people to play soccer/bball at CCAB.
Wanted to stay at home but since Jon took the effort to get everyone down, I shouldn't pang sei.
Yeah, reached CCAB at 9 and we only got started at around 9:30 onwards.

Training my keeping skills and wasn't really tested other than Wuqi who gave a stinging shot but i saved it. Others were just moderate catches. Only let in one goal though.
Plenty of stoppages due to "injuries" to Jia Lei. Everyone didn't really feel like playing after that.
Lost the momentum.
Switched to basketball later. Shots were quite accurate for the first time, looks like I have hope of making it into the CJC baskeball team already. hahaha, provided that I get into CJC.
Played soccer again, well it was more fun this time.
It is really attack and defence training.
My team: Me, Wuqi, Joshua Tan, Tseng, Jia Lei.
Well, we defended like mad for the whole game.
Miraculously, I only let in a 1 goal after 1 hour of bombardment thanks to Wuqi's excellent defending(tackling), Joshau Tan's clearance and my keepering abilities. Hahaha

Went off to work later but only survived 2 hrs there as I was really sick.
Vomitted the milo that I drank for lunch into a plastic bag and that sort of ends my day.
Nothing interesting to note after that.

15 Jan.
Worked the morning shift from 9am to 2pm. Yeah, pretty dull and all.
After work, went to watch movie with Xiang An, Kai Ying and Xiu Hui.
Well, since movie started at 5pm and we were there lke about 4pm.
Played pool for about an hour.
Blar blar..
Watched the movie "The Haunting of Molly Hartly" I think...
So much for a horror movie, it almost succeeded in making me laugh at it's pathetic attempts to scare people. Well, it's rated PG for a reason.
The first hour was mostly about Molly's mum moaning her name eeriely to turn out it was a dream..
Dang, I give it a 0.5/5 for movie rating.
Luckily, it was free movie tickets from Xiang An's father.
That sort of ends my day.

16 Jan.
Anyway, submitted my JAE form.
First choice CJC.
Should be able to get in.
Work was fun today, hahaha,
I slacked with Kalai the whole day, talking cock.
The people at NTUC are really nice, hahaha.
However, I don't like the people working in the morning shift.
As in those who are in my age group.
Especially the two poser guys.
Is it really necessary to walk around with a swagger and swing their fringe around in front of girls, and give the cocky arrogant smile to almost everybody???
Damn, they are really pissing me off.
Waited for Yuxuan to end work.
Finally, Mdm Chua let her off.
Yeah and I have no idea why she keeps going on about GAYS.
hahahaha, i swear she is going to get me for blogging about this.
Anyway, I am at Wuqi's house now with Wuqi (duh), Marcus and Jia Sheng.
They are waiting for me for mahjong now, shall blog about this perhaps tmr at home.
Oh yeah, celebrated Chang's birthday today.
More details tmr.

Into the Night. 12:39 AM
_________________________________________________________

14 January 2009

Yeah, O lvl results.
Disappointing, got 13 points. Nowhere here or there.
Hist Elec got A1.
A and E maths, Physics got A2.
Chem, Chinese and English got B3.

Was pondering on whether to go to PJC or CJC at the start.
Thinking of whether to be a big fish in a small pond or a small fish in a big pond,
according to the new principal.
Jokes aside, was really quite tempted to go PJC but after discussions with seniors and friends,
still felt that CJC is the best choice for me.
My only complaint is that it is simliar to SJI lifestyle, not to say I don't like SJI.
It is just that i prefer a change in environment but I am limited in options, ain't I?

Skipped work that day and well.. played badminton with Michelle, Brit, Wuqi and Kenneth.
Not fun for me as I suck at badminton.
Felt bad ponning work that day as my colleague was the only one in our department working and I sort of promised her I will come no matter what.
Damn, I am an ass.

Went Kranji today to have lunch???
Random man.
Saw Elaine, my ex classmate there. Chatted with her for a while.
Haha, I also forgotten who was she.
Forgotten that a lot of my ex classmates went to Kranji.
Late for work for about 7 min.

Stoned and slacked at counter as usual.
Wuqi asked me to play pool at 5 during my break for about an hr.
I was fine with it but somehow they came at 5:40.
And there was no point in playing anymore.
Shall not elaborate, I must stop my bitching. hahahaha

Sem as usual was damn nice to me even though i pon work that day.
He gave me ba gua.. woah free somemore.
And he said I can work in the morning on 20,21 and 22 after I asked him whether I can or not.
Sigh, glad that I am under such a nice boss for my first job.

On a side note, this is pretty random but o well here goes.
I feel that no matter how sad you are, you shouldn't show it in front of the people around you.
Why darken someone's mood when he/she was originally happy?
That is sort of the motto i go with now since I started work.
If you know me before sec 3, you would know that I am a quiet guy.
But for now? I am always the one cracking jokes and making people laugh no matter how annoying they find me. Hahaha, it always feels good putting a smile to people's faces rather than putting a frown on it.
Be happy!!

12 January 2009

Sigh, today started off on a bad note.

A phone call that crushed my hopes once again.

Damn, I am really down on luck on this.

Shall not elaborate here.

Was late for service for about 40 min.

Luckily, I was in time for the pastor talk.

He was talking about sinning.

Hmm, let me recall.

If you sin, you must confess your sins.

Don't let sin enslave you.

If you confess your sins, God will forgive you.

This is the summarised version, I will put up the exact words from the bible some day

Went lunch with Jia Lei.

Proceeded to work later, the same old usual day at the counter.

Literally sat and stoned at the counter until 5pm thinking about what happened.

5pm to 6pm was my dinner break.

Well, at 7pm, something really pissed me off.

I helped like about two customers in choosing mandarin oranges even though it was not my job.

Went off later from my counter to help out in my department.

When I came back, some cashier was complaining to the guy-in-charge that why wasn't anybody there helping the customers.

Guy-in-charge: You sit down at the counter, go help the customer then. Take some intiative.
Me: I did help! I helped 2 customers before that.

Guy-in-charge: I am not saying you never help the customer, just telling you to help them in the future.

WTH! He is not even talking sense here, The freaking idiot.

I got scolded for helping him. ASSHOLE!

Work ended at about 10.

Went back home with Salina as usual on 985.

Rushed to Mark's house to catch the Manu VS Chelsea game with Jia Lei and Mark.

First half ended 1-0 with Vidic scoring from a corner. WOOHOO..

I was cheering and celebrating. It was straight before half time.

Anyway at half time, we felt hungry.

So we decided to eat the promotion pack bread I brought back from work.

Gardenia Promotion Bread!

Sorry for me being a bit too vulgar at the first video. I was a bit high after Manu were winning 1-0.

Anyway, check out the second vid. It's hilarious. I bled butter.

Getting quite nervous over results now.

Jia Lei, Mark and I can't seem to fall asleep now.

Hopefully, we will all do well..

Slept at 3am today after playing football manager 2009.
Dang , that game is addictive.
Anyway, woke up at 9 to play bball.
Hung up on Mark because I wanted to sleep more. (:
Wuqi called (He actually woke up) to check whether it was still on.
I called him 10 min later to tell him that we are still playing.
Dang, he went back to sleep after that.

As usual, Nick was LATE for like the thousandth time.
Always makes his grand arrival in style.
Played 3 vs 3 against random people.
Won first set 11-9.
Lost second set 10-11 when we were 10-7 up.
Final set we won 11-5.

Ate brunch at kopitiam.
Had roast duck rice for $3.50.
Was late for meeting Salina and Yuxuan.
Dang, I am never early for meeting girls.
I wonder why..

Work as usual.
Was quite in a bad mood today and with the promoters pissing me off, trying to make use of me.
I lost it but not to the very strong extent.
Snapped back at all of them
Quite sick of all this crap at work.
Work ended pretty late today.
Went back home with Salina.
Actually agreed to sleep on the bus ride home but somehow ended up laughing and talking all the way.

Anyway on a side note,
I realise that I criticise peoplet too much at times.
Should start toning down on this.
Maybe I am becoming an auntie, bitching about people and all.
Hahahaha, must be the job at NTUC.

One more day to results man.
Really dreading it....

Went to school today with Chang to collect my eagles award.
I feel damn odd as I am like an "old boy" now after completing my SJI education.
Anyway, we reached SJI at like 11:35 which is like during recess time.
The good old days of Chang and I slacking at prefect duty lol.

Talked to Mr Lam for about 30 min.
He seemed quite happy/sad when he talked to us.
He asked us mainly where we wanted to go after results.
Chang said Poly and while I said JC.
He told us briefly that we must study hard and all to get a good life.
Also kept mentioning that he missed student life, as we can go anywhere we liked.

Well, visited the stall no 7. The $2 combo set meal. The auntie damn nice, she treat me to the meal.Dang I feel bad but she kept rejecting my offer of paying.
Sigh, she said she nervous for our results also.
Dang, I really really miss SJI. It really gives me a sense of identity here.

Good for value $2 meal. (:

Moving on, I went SP with Chang and Wuqi.
Walked around and got pretty lost.
Stumbled upon Gugan, Mark, Wei Sheng, Ying Zhang, Joel and Douglas at SP.
Played soccer at SP amongst ourselves.
Wow, I was playing striker and I scored 4 goals.
Amazing feat since I cannot really control the ball and I was usually playing as keeper.

Went Bugis Street with Wuqi and looked around for clothes. Found nothing there after like 2 hours. My fashion consultant couldn't find anything nice for me. So we decided to change location and went Peinsula to look around.
I bought like erm 3 jeans, 1 hoody and 2 shirts all in 2 hrs time.
Still need more shirts and sneakers to suit my jeans.

Still can't believe that results are like on Monday.
Really dreading the day though..
Getting jittery all over again.
Sigh, I hope the last memory of SJI will be a good one.

Into the Night. 11:18 PM

Shall blog about today.
Woke up at 8:45 am for basketball.
Smsed Mark and Nick whether they were awake and went to bathe.
When I got back, I had like 5 missed calls.
Turned out they thought I went back to sleep.
What the heck man, I am not a pig. (:

Anyway, Mark and I walked to the bball court and Wuqi called me to tell me that the court was invaded by hell lot of people.
We were like at least got people to challenge.
But the invaders turned to be kindergarten people.
It was a true invasion man.
All of them swarming all over the court.

Back to the story, we played 2 vs 2 amongst ourselves. Played for about 2 hrs.
Mark was a noob. I teamed with him the last round.
And we fought 10-10 to 10-7 down.
Guess what the noob did?
I gai Nick Tan and the ball dropped to him.
He chose to pass the ball to me when he could have just shot.
Bugger, he lost the game for us.
Damn.. hahahhaa

Ate at Pizzahut with Wuqi and Mark.
Student meals looks appealing and it rose to a bomb of 9 bucks.
Wth, we paid 9 bucks to get our stomach bloated.
We went our separate ways later with Wuqi playing badminton with Kenneth and co.
Mark went to poly open house.
And me??
I went to work!!! WTH.
This is getting irritating.
I only got 2 customers today after 7 hours at the counter.
I can't believe that I actually slept at the counter today for about 10 min until some coustomer woke me up. Zzz...

Tomorrow'as my off.
I am going back to school to take Eagles Award.
Anyway, getting scared/nervous/panicky over O lvl results.
Argh, hope I do well man.

Shall update about yersterday and today.
Woke up at 8 am to play basketball with Nick, Mark and Gewei.
Been such a long time since we got together to play.
Felt like years since we last got together.

Well, we played amongst ourselves first.
turned out to be a farce since no one was taking it seriously.
Some pros challenged us later and we got totally thrashed.
O well, at least it was 11-3.

We had a rematch and it was 11-5.
Decent score since we had like a all scout team compared to a school basketball team.
must practice more but work keeps taking up my time.
getting annoying..

yeah, forgot to mention that my Christmas counter is changed to the New Year counter now.
Boring.. I am like rotting down there.
Was quite sick during work and fell asleep immediately when i got home.

As for today,
went for church in the morning after like 2 weeks of absense.
The service made me feel bad as the speaker mentioned that we were only mouthing the song lyrics and not actually singing. He also added that most people do not understand the meaning of true worship.
Well, I am still new to the faith and I guess this should take a while to get used to.

Anyway, went to work as usual.
Nothing much to describe.
Met up with Wuqi, Jia Sheng, Brit, Michelle and two other girls from their school.
Erm, one is called Yi hui (I think) and the other erm I forgot but she has a erm intruiging personality.
Was late for about 30 min as I got work.

Played pool for like 2 hrs. Haha, it seemed that Brit and I always win when we tag team together. No matter how lucky it is and it happened again like twice in a row today until our streak got ended by the great Wuqi once again.
Looks like luck can't get past skill that often.

So not really looking forward to work tmr.
Literally rotting down there. )=
Sigh, 21 more days to go...

Very very late post.
But still, Happy New Year!!!

Anyway, shall update about what happened on the 31st.
Wuqi and I met up with Chee Kheong, Valerie and Jocelyn.
Had no idea who suggested going to Discovery Centre.
Argh, turned out to be a waste of money. $10 admission fee and we barely did anything there.
Well, no one wanted the free calender so I took it. :p

We figured that it was going to be a waste of time so we decided to go to the science centre.
$3 admission fee and it turned out to be much more fun than discovery centre.
Haha, we went to whack the hammer to test our strength at the science centre.
Spent quite a long time there.

Met up with Michelle later on when she finished work.
Played pool at Marina Square. had no idea where Jocelyn and Valerie went though.
Chee Kheong and Wuqi were like pro, finish one game in like 5 min.
Then you got the noobs like Michelle and I where we took 10 min+ to finish the game.

Watched Bedtime Stories later on.
Turned out to be quite funny but I felt certain parts of the show was too rushed.

They say that fairytales don't happen in life in the show at the start but in the end it's up to us to make that happen.

Ate at erm Justnoodles later. Got free flow of ice cream and drinks.
yum yum, finished like about 6 scoops of ice creams.
Went Aloysius house later where Brit and her sister was already there.
played Mahjong and Wii for a while.
We played the werewolf game later and everyone was deceived by me. hahaha, I make such a good liar. Played until like 2am till Brit had to go.

Girls went to sleep at 2:30 to 6.
We didn't sleep at all but we decided to take a power nap at 6:10.
We woke up at 9 plus instead.
Went to work and Chang went to stay over at my house.
