Well, to be frank, i seriously had troubles. Have some very important choices to make, either to be with my brother for his birthday, or go to the class chalet. In the end, i did both, accompany my bro for breakfast at bukit batok, and attending the class chalet. Joseph still asked me to play badminton in the morning, woah my timetable is exploding.

About lunchtime, i met up with Joseph, Peesh, Gerald and Steph ( didn't really expect to see both of them ). The first thing Joseph said to me when i reach his house is white horse white horse. Haha, i then realise that i still have not give him a white horse in the game which we are playing. Walked to the market to have lunch.

Something supprising happened then. When we ordered our drinks, 1 guy from another table, paid for Steph's drink !!! Steph start to panick and undecided on whether to return the money or not. Gerald, dunno whether trying to be funny or thick skinned just keep suggesting not to return the money. Haha. One thing is that, the guy keep looking at her and talking to her friends, Joseph then say that they hum bird brid ( which means no balls ). I guess to his supprise, that guy came over and talked to steph after a while. Geralds reaction to the second 'challenge' was done the correct way. By sticking out his hand to say hi, when that guy was intending to say hi to Steph. Haha. I though this situation would only happen in movies but it definately proved me wrong.

After that, we slowly made our way to the Orchid Country Club, meeting joel on the way. Reached at about 4pm, not many people were there. But they were already happily enjoying the ddr, majong and cards. And best of all they brought a lot of tidbits, maggie noodles, instant campbell soup and many more, enough for us to last like a few days !!! I was the best chalet i have ever been, my first time trying out the ddr, supprisingly i just scraped the pass mark!!! Haha. Things never got any better. Well, i must say smth that Shelby came ! With us cursing and swearing before and after she came and left. Good thingy she only came like for an hour or so.

Evening just before dinner time, we went to play pool, while a few others stay behind and watch some chinese tv programme. I am finally not the burden in pool, shot in a couple of good balls. I must say we are super disorganised during dinner time. Some want to eat at the only cafe in the bowling alley, others want cup noodles and stay in room, while others wanted to order food in. In the end all went to eat at the cafe and procee back to our room as the bowling alley was full.

Isaac and Timotity were playing guitar while some of us group together and started singing every song which they play. It was fun, the atmosphere was there, it just lacked a fire to our perfect camp fire. Maybe i was a hermit, i just realised there and then that Sue Maine is good at singing, her voice is great, I'm not saying Isaac's voice is any worse. Haha. Well time flies and it was 12mn soon. We then made our way to the bowling alley where we bowled till like 2.30am. Tim Swee is godlike, he managed a 5 bagger ( 5 strikes in a row, now thats cool, you guys are supposed to be very supprised now !!! Its no easy feat )

One by one people started to fall, falling into the bed/floor, falling into dreamland. Some of us were actually thinking that the guys sleep on the floor while the girls sleep on the bed, but everybody were too tired and just slept, guy beside girl, beside girl, beside guy. URGH Shu Ming stared to complain it was quite sleazy haha, especially when the two couples .........

5 survivors were Shu Ming, Isaac, Gerald, Me and Tim. It was like 4.30am then. Even playing could not keep some of us awake any longer. The 2 couples fell too. They slept at some funny corner of the room. Isaac feeling lonely as he still have none started his lame jokes and going around disturbing ppl, saying funny things. The best part, he go sleep with Gabriel as in really hug him and all. EIUUUUU in the end Tim, Shu Ming and Gerald fell too. But Jess woke up half way so i'm not sure where she counts as a survivors, but anyway as it was like 6am we went to the lobby to lie on the cosy sofas and sleep.

Next moring was ddr, ddr and more ddr, with an exception of a small group which played guitar and sing. Had to pack up by 12 and all of us did it in 5 mins. From a super messy room to one that is rid of all rubbish in 10 mins. I guess many hands indeed make light work. Went to bath eat at North point and go Weiji's house for PW. Oh my, my brain could think no further and it was forced to come up with something constuctive.

There is wonder in most everything I see, Not a cloud in the sky, Got the sun in my eyes, And I wont be surprised if its a dream

Today, I was like a picture with colour, but a layer of dust on it made it look grey, dull. Another usual boring day in school which i presume that we just go to school to stone practially. Nothing much to do actually, lessons never before went so slowly, and time was creeping by ever slowly.

Then came the GP lesson which was much 'anticipated' due to a massive class debate. The hot topic for debate was whether the acceptance of casual sex will make singpore society more mature ? As usual Tim and Izaac were the ones talking and rebutting the most. Second to both of them was Shelby which i assumed that nobody actually listen to her holy and wishful comments on topic itself, which was like not part of the debate notion. Well, it wasn't was fruitful as i hope it would, as the topic's rather dry with some speakers comming up with insufficient points to carry on the debate. ( Well i'm no better i must admit ) Follow by was another stonning period of PW which no work was done. What a waste of an hour.

CCA later was fun, we were playing half way and it rained. Joyce was like our 'mummy' and started calling us into the shelter. As fast as it comes, the rain stops soon after and we continued playing, the air was indeed much fresher than those hazy ones we usually breathe. After playing and playing and playing volleyball, we decided to play soccer for a while. For some unknown reason, it started to rain again. But this time it rain cats and dogs, even so it did not dampen our spirits as we continue to play. The feeling of playing in the rain was so unexplainable, it was that very good feeling which you have not had for ages. Just like the ending part of the show advent children.

It felt as though the grey dust had been washed off, revealing the colourful picture inside. It was splendid, wonderful, amazing.

Drenched and tired from all that trainning we went to the canteen to eat and head home. It was my first time i had this type of feeling in cjc so far. The unexplainable feeling of drench from the rain, joy from the game and tireness combined.

I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away,I don't know where my soul is, I don't know where my home is

It just happen to me that i must have woke up from the wrong side of my bed this morning. The first thing i knew was that my laptop just vanished. Without thinking i knew it was my dad who toke it away. During breakfast later he kept complaining that i failed my GP and also did not study for chinese... He say something about keep chatting with my friends and also keep making myself occupied with school activites. Come on, i got to be loose, its after promos. Sadden because of that, how could I? But i did.

First period was religion lesson ( although i'm not a christian nor catholic ). It was in the auditorium and we sang some thanksgiving to god and reflections. Writing a letter to god was quite meaningful as i finally realise the goodness in everything which happen in my life, including Shelby ( she made every other girl lookes much prettier ). Jokes aside, the reflection was great.

Vent all my anger and depression on food. Chinese wok, my favourite stall. For the first time my food was more than $4. It comprises of fried rice, 5 portions of veg, fried fish and chicken. Had my fill but it didn't help. Still quite gloomy after break. Rawr... ( its like a lion roaring but without power and gusto )

Physics practical was very easy. I was supprised that i did it in like 30mins. Still i hope i can get full marks for it.

After school, i felt quite sickly but still went to meet my chinese teacher for extra lessons !! Can't believe that i went but still it was a wise choice. Listening to what my chinese teacher say about me and where i can improve.

Feeling very sian for the whole day, unable to smile, i decided to go out with Linton and Chong Wee to watch Rob-B-Hood. It was a fun movie but touching especially the part where the baby was seperated from Jackie Chan. It was very touching as people tend to be steel faced on the outside. But i realise, no matter how hard they were on the outside, deep down inside they are still human.

Well, after all that trashing out, i guess i in a much mood today. First up was PW which we rushed like siao the day before. I could not belief that because of the stupid WR i have to leave my close friend alone for brithday. I feel really bad. But what's done is done, i figured out that i even have problem walking around school today !!! Thats like 2 days after Open House. Anyway WR was finally submitted with alot of hope on it.

After school was the talk by Bro Paul on Budgeting for CCA. Well, its quite a heavy chore to do especially when we have to decide everything by next wednesday, including contacting coaches, iternary for our camp, cost of equipments and alot more. Anyway, Fei Zhen has also been appointed the job of Treasurer cum Sectary on top of Vice Captian. As for me, my weight has also been increased with the job of CIP coordinator and gatherings. After saturday which is a very important milestone in our volleyball journey, i hope things will get better this comming trainning. I'll be looking forward to it.

As for now, i better devote all my excess brain computing capacity to do the planning and budgeting.

So a day when you've lost yourself completely, Could be a night when your life ends, Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving

Went to school at around 8am in the morning, where the sky is clear and breezy, the smell of the refreshing air, makes me very energetic and also the urge to run. After playing some soccer i decided to go for a short run. After while, everybody came so we started our morning PT. After that 5 weeks of promos, i became very unfit, not only me but also the whole team. Very fast and we were all very tired. To top it off we have to do 20 grandstands and MASS DANCE TOO !!!

Somehow someone got this idea of doing our grandstands just before our break. Although we did like 5 each time, all of us were still very tired. And thats only like 10.30 am !!! Our break includes mass dance which we have to do. There was this new guy called Eddy, whos an old volleyball friend of Joyce. He's a nice guy, come out with some funny games to keep us entertained and also some totally new trainning methods !!! Its just that sad our trainning is overwrite protected, thus JOYCE ( that slave pusher ) have the final say as usual. Also thanks to her, her friend Eddy was injuired with i deep cut on his knee and she didn't knew. I had to pon mass dance to help Eddy around and help him tend to his wound.

Then came this stupid irony which i was quite pissed off. Firstly we were told not to push ourselves too hard cause it the first trainning, and yet they ( i'm not saying who) keep pushing us !?!?!?! In the end people have cramps, and as for me i had cramps till i could not walk !!! Had no choice but to borrow a whole tube of salompas to act as stand by !!! Happy now?

Afternoon was dreadful, it was very slow and there are very few people comming to CJC especially when there are so many other JC's having their open house today. Many things happened and i keep contemplating. I remember reading this sentence somewhere ( Its no point staying if people do not appreciate your skills ) I wish i could excute that, if there were no consequences to it. I must agree that CJC volleyball sucks, as a matter of fact, we play 3 games of volleyball with the basketballers and lost all 3 !!! Today was when we played 2 games with them and to tell you the truth, i'm not inside playing alongside my teammates, but rather outside sitting down and talking to my PE teacher who happens to be the basketball coach. I think the volleyballers have alot of space for improvement especially me. To be frank, i'm quite slack and i need to change that mentality and attitude.

After trainning which i was quite pissed with 2 people, i vented my anger on our 3rd game of the day which i played with much anger and hatred. It could say as expected we lost the 3rd game as firstly the opponents were our seniors and also it was our ( excpet me ) 3rd consecutive game. In the end of the trainning i went to run to vent my frustration within me. How i wish i have a soccer ball to start kicking.

Had along chat with Kevin during jog, we talked about everything and seriously speaking its the first time we talked frankly over many things which have bothered us for the many months. We finally sorted it out. I felt better after releasing all the fustration within me.

It's alright, I'm okay, I think God can explainI believe, I'm the same, I get carried away

Today was quite retarded. I was suppose to go to school in the morning to help out for the volleyball. In the end i ended up going to school just to hand up the piece of purple form for the Project Nemo. After that go all the way back to Weiji's house to do project work. How retarded can it be? Go all the way to school just to hand up 1 piece of paper then go all the way back to somewhere near where you came from !!!

Guess what, i managed to help weiji fix is internet router problem. Making his whole house wireless again. I still remember that Jasmine treatened to kick my head if i fail, and i kept to my promise of fixing it in like 20 mins. With all the passwords and security up and running. Well, guess my skills are not rusty yet. Yet again, a time to stretch and exercise my computer skills.

I guess my hols will be very buzy and ever interesting. BBQ, OCIP, Class Chalet, Class reunions, CCA outing .......

Double Happniess was the theme for today's birthday. Well, why double cause we are celebrating Gerald and Xiuting's birthday together. Lynette and Min Hui were cutting red papers of double happiness and paste them all over the class. Seriously speaking, Gerald already have a girlfriend. If she knows..... ( haha )

We saboed them first with the re-igniting candles who randomly sparked off jolts of sparks. Thus the 7 small candles keep rekindling no matter how much they try to blow them off. Then the odacers did some thingy with paper which look like garlands. Made them cut the cake together and many many stuffs. The best of all, it cut through the our break period and into MR YEE's CHEM period. But as usual he didn't mind and instead let us carry on eating cakes and talking. Where to find such teachers ????

Mass Dance in the afternoon was equally enjoyable as yesterday's. We had a crash course on the indian dance portion. Nice. We had many rehersals and in the last one, i tried and managed to dance the girl's portion too !!! Way to go

Tmr i expect to be a very buzy day for me even though there is no school. Volleyball in the morning. PW in the afternoon. Outside sports at night. Saturday is CJ open house. Looking forward to see my juniors.

I just realised that MY WHOLE FREAKING CLASS IN HOOKED ON TO THE FREAKING GAME !!!

I could not belief it that even Shu Ming and Gabriel actually want to start on that game. OMG. I realised that i have been hooked on the game so much so that i became further apart from my acquaintance and friends.Worst off i neglected 4 very important person in my life these 2 weeks, namely my strict dad, my wonderful mom, my naughty brother and lastly my very close friend. I could not belief that my game weighs more than my close friend . WHAT AM I THINKING?? I like addicted on drugs, i hope i can get over it soon.

If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman, If I’m alive and well, will you be there a-holding my hand

School in the morning was sadenning. I did not meet my expectations. Well its nothing to be worth blogging off. I failed GP bleah.... feeling very down.

After school was quite interesting. First up was mass dance !! The one we did for Orientation 1 : JitterBug. What was so funny was that there was a pair both guys, when the 'girl' suppose to turn in that part, the guy lifted his knee and kick 'her' ass. LOL.

Mass dance was over in about 20mins. Went to play volleyball after that. Thanks to Aaron, i have to play with an injuired calf muscle. We play and play and play and PLAYED. Then this group of basketballers came and play with us. Nice game though, we fielded in 3 guys 3 girls. Not bad, it was a close fought match but we eventually lose out in deduce. I must say we have a lot of room to improve. Given the promos are 5 freaking weeks, all of us are soooo unfit now as compared to before promos.

Psk i have got out of the danger zone* in my class. I finally shifted up to the second row.
* is the most leathal area of effect Shelby have ( which is like 2 tables around her ) anyway her effect could be felt everywhere in the class

'Cause you don't need nobody to make it on your own, You don't need nobody you'd rather be alone

Today was the first ever flag day for our volleyballers. We had to meet up at 9.15 at somerset to collect our bag and get ourselves ready to help collect flags for Singapore Cancer Society. My group together with group 2 was posted to Raffles City. Guess what, we walked all the way there, taking a cool 30 mins !!! It was a rather short walk, but we chatted about Dota with the WTF mode. About how we can spam like siao after lvl 6.

Collection in the beginning was tough. As it was in the morning, the starting few donations were so hard to come by. After a while, people start to come by and my bag starts to get filled. Just when my "business" was very well, several other people from the poly came to my area and compete with me. WTF... i was damn pissed, i almost asked them to f off.

Well the list of people and their characteristics and also my opinion.
Ang Moh's - Most won't give, if they give, they give alot. Approach tactfully, but don't pinned too high a hope.
Tai Tai's - Some will give if you approach them, others approach you with coins.
People with Kids - Almost all give, partial reason, their kids want the sticker. Try to attract the kids attention with your sticker.
Grandmothers - They are the ones which will give you the money !!! Must approach
Couples - Most ladies will stop to give while to guy will say no. So must approach from the female side.

I met some nice people and some nasty people on the way. At the end of the day, its this kind of people which made/spoil your day. Some kind people, go up to you to donate or talk to you and donating. The nasty ones will say something scarstic like not donating to SCS. Some even walked on as though you never asked them. Don't want can like use your hand to say, no need to walked on like as though you got no eyes to see or ears to hear.

Some incidents i would like to share. First was when i approach a European. At first he refused to donate, after like 2 or 3 steps, he turn around and told me he worked for the Singapore Cancer Society !!! He's a scientist there. Cool huh. There were also once when i a couple donated and also passed me a leaflet about the program they are organising. LOL

Ok after that, as i could not make it in time to sembawang for my class cip at 3pm, i went back to school with Gretchen, Kevin, Hong Chin, Alex, Andrew, Corina, Wei Long. Play till about 5 plus. We figured out that Gretchen can kick a soccer ball better than Wei Long !!! I still like the combo kill which comprises of dig set and spike.

Kevin, Hong Chin and Gretchen are always the spikers who will try their best to stop the other from recieving the ball. As for me, i'm always the setter who comes up with funny moves ( thanks to my randomness ) to have some fun games. I even set a ball backwards even though it is going to the opposite team !!! ( Now you all are suppose to say WOW !!! ) That position was what i needed the most, as i could all the random things i want WITHOUT being chided.

If you never try, then you'll never know. How long do I have to climb, Up on the side of this mountain of mine?

I finally did something i enjoyed for months, i have no chance to do it until today. Well, needless to say it is repairing computers !!! Yay, finally got the chance to do it since pee sheng's computer spoiled. The last time was a few months ago when linton bought a new RAM.

Pee Sheng got 2 coms, and i managed to repair his desktop back to his orginal state. It was full of virus and spyware that causes him com not to access the internet. ( Hmm, i wonder how he get all those? ) As for his laptop, well i tried my best but i could not do much other than try to repair his LCD screen as his harddisk had failed. Didn't spent too long, about 4 - 5 hours only. Well it was definately worth it, comming into contact with the computer i fancy alot. The freaking Computer. Hey next time you got any computer problems feel free to approach me ok? ( That was rather thick skin of me )

Anyway i could not belief that i bought chinese novels to read. It was the complete Jing Yong Xiao Shuo on "Xiao Ao Jiang Hu" It was full of chinese words and there was no pictures !!! Well the first page already detered me to continue reading even though i try my hardest to read. I am only at the first out of the four volumes. What a long way to go for me. I really, really hope i can pass my Chinese. I was lucky to get 50/100 for both my midyear and promos !!! Unbelieveable, believe it.

Another thing which happen today was that i almost had the chace to meet a friend i have not met for 9mths. I stressed almost as we did not met in the end. Due to a human error which led her to tell me she's at West Mall when she's infact at Lot 1 !!! Well, its sad that we missed another chance to meet, but well, i guess we'll meet up sometime soon. Suo wei ( you yuan qian li lai xiang zian, wu yuan ge bi bu xiang feng )

<==Happy Birthday Tim !!!==>


Operation T-I-M was very successful. But we did not expect something to happen, which is the sad mood of Tim all the way until around 2pm. Although he says he's tired, but well, who can't see that he's sad. Our plan was not to wish him Happy Birthday from morning till 2pm. Many people came forward to wish him a happy birthday but we didn't. Guess he was sad because of that.

We collaborated with the councilors but they ps us halfway into the celebration. When the bell rang at 1pm, we immediately gathered at the grandstand preparing our big surprise for him. Balloons with our own personal wishes, a class card and finally 2 cakes !!!. To our dismay, he need to serve detention from 1pm to 2. But other than that, our plan worked as planned.

We asked Pris to accompany him from detention, while also taking away his handphone. When he reached the grandstand, we all lit the candles in our hand and sang Happy Birthday.....

Hap~py Birth~day to you, Hap~py Birth~day to you, Hap~py Birth~day to Timotity, Hap~py Birth~day to you......

Then we asked him to stand at track and close his eyes so that we could give him surprise. When we are done, he opened his eyes and Pooh, waterbombs flew towards him in all directions. He's totally soaked !!! Just then we forget that his wallet is still with him !!! Anyway, he cut the cakes and ate them ( actually he gorged the cake ) .........

We tied all the balloons together and guess he had a hard time bringing them back home. But anyway i really guessed that he enjoyed himself and so did we. WATER BOMBS !!! Muahahaha

Tim, just in case that red ballon with a big heart on it is by Pris ( You should know it )

Here and now its time for celebration, I finally figured it out, That all our dreams have no limitations, That's what its all about

Another first time in my life. Guess, i'm really a hermit. Well today's first time is going to help out at an old folks home. Pathetic right? SJI's CIP always go collect money, today's CIP enables me to see the real meaning of volunteering. The laughter that the old folks have on their face, is very satisfying. Met an old folk, who is 93 years of age, and he is damn good at majong. 4 games 4 win !!! Then there was this indian guy who speaks fluent hokkien and the best part, is very good at playing 'dumb'. Well, we could not beat him, except for a team comprising of Isaac and Don.
