going home

Thursday, November 30, 2006

I've been going to several roadshows this week. The first roadshow was the adidas mega clearence sale. The long que just to enter the the road turned many potential buyers down. Luckily my strong endurence paid off. I promise the things there are seriously cheaper than thoese of the conventional adidas. For example, the adidas superstar shoes was priced at a mere $50 compared to the $120 price tag most regular sports shops would have asked for. Got a bag a real madrid shirt(the spain club that i admire) and a cap that took endless hours to fight. Initially wanted to get a pair of shorts but the only sizes avalible were xs xs the latter behind too small and the former obviously too big lar.

Next roadshow was the every popular overcrowded sitex 2006 IT roadshow. I guessed was one of the frontrunners to enter thereby making my browsing expierence a rather pleasent one. At least the walkways are much bigger. A potential problem was the crowds come. Still remember the horrible expierence at comex 06 where the notion "squash lyk sardins" was an understatment.

Just as i decided to head for the exit i realise that my body had entered the big boys toys roadshow. Gosh i taught thoese were only meant for people above 18 but too my surprise it turned out to be much for decent tons of cool cars to look at and hardly any revealing stuff. U noe wad i mean.

And there u have the roads shows for the week and guess wad? I'll be heading down to sitex tmr again to purchase some stuff. I'm gonna fine some way to persude my mum to get a new printer sharper printer.

I've been doing werid things throughout the duration of last week and so i shall speak about them one by one.

Firstly, i'm facing this stigma that one day this blog would close much sooner then i'm expecting it to be. We've all notice that i've been blogging fewer and fewer since the blog was set up. I don't exactly wish for the blog to close down and so i shall tolerate the low readership and keep the blog going. All the best to me myself and I in keeping this blog going.

I have just finshe repainted 1/3 of my room. Mainly due to my maid's poor colour choosing skills. My room was coated with a whitetish blue pain instead of the ordinary plain white. To my disamy she repainted part of my room with the pure white paint instead of the blueish colour. Therefore had to repaint the entire part of the room by myself. Hiye so trouble some but rather nice. I'm gonna have to tolerate the smell for several days.

I've been going to school for the whole and last week and for the first three days of this week. Hiye sometimes i really hope there will be a week or two where i'll actually be free to laze around at home and play on the computer for the whole day. Hopefully it'll come soon and there goes my chance to dye my hair.

Ok i guess i'm kinda of done for this blog entry and i'll try to blog as soon as possible. Goodbye people

I'm finally back from OBS and i muz say it is indeed a life changing expierence. The trainers are the best trainers i've ever meet and the outdoor astomosphere only adds to the fun

Day 1
To my surprise the facilities turned out much more modernise that my wild imaginative thoughts.The prinicipal "back to basics" gave me an impression of the hell i would probably be going thru the coming week. So i headed towards pulau ubin expecting the worst. We did some of the usual ice breakers followed by learning several skills that we would be needing in the next few days at night we had a false fire alarm that seriously did not sound lyk a fire alarm and we got repremanded by the chieft camp officer for failing to bring the medical pouch.Had green bean soup for supper

Day 2
Woke up at 5.55am for flag raising. Canoe expidtion today. Perhaps one of the more fun events. Learnt several technique on how to steer the canoe in the right direction.Teamed up with susanna as they made it complusory for a guy to go with a girl. So we set off in our canoe to an offshore island called frog island or more commonly noe as "pulau ketam". The ride there was simply hell as susanna had developed blisters on her hands..thus i had to paddle almost the entire length. Upon reaching back to ubin we freshed ourselfs us and headed to the quaddrangle for some bonding games)skipping together synchronise numbering games and walking on planks off wood together) again. Finally it was time for supper and guessed wad. Red bean soup was serverd. I realise that bean soups are actually one of the easiest soups to prepare. You just simply boil it. Haha slp soudly thru the night...day 3,4 and 5 tmorrow

So sry people blogger has seriously been giving alot of trouble this few days...mostly due to the transition from the old blogger to the new goggle blogger anyway the log entry coutinues

Day 3

A Day of hell for me. Lack of sleep combine with a dame heavy back indeed took a toll on my life. However the sense of satisfaction upon reaching the campsite was greater than usual. However there was still more to come as expected. The hard florr meant that the majority of the watch had some trouble sleeping. Which obviously of course included me. Again some bonding games were played throughout the day to better foester bonding amoung us. One of dame was theme " Alphine resucue" in which we had to transport a strecher from one side of the tons of logs to the end. Lack of proper leadership lead to the downfall as usual. Next was the land x expidition where we had to track thru the whole of pulau ubin. Due to our lack of sleep, our moods took a turn for the worst. There were periods of times when i was rather moody. Probably due to a lack of leadership plus unconfidence. However at the end of the day we all learn to forgive each other.

Day 4
Told to walk from our campsite to an unknow place in return for getting the greatest reward we would every receive. Which eventually turned out to be one of our injuried bunkmates who got injuried during the alphine rescue challengen. Next we headed towards a quarry where we were told to build a raft that would be able to support 16 people in the quarry. I must say the quarry experience was perhaps the most rewarding of them all as all of us had not bath for the past few days. Thus the taste of freshwater simply blew my mind. Sleeping was hell as we were told to sleep in an area filled with uneven rocks. Struggled to Sleep

Day 5 Finally headed back to camp 1 and back to our bunks. What a relief it was. I was finally able to take a proper bath and feel fresh again. Sadly it would also be the last day spent with my wondeful bunk mates from "barker". I must say that althought i felt that some of the members lack the team spirit they all still helped in one way or another Hiye the throwing stone incident where we had to make a promise really awoke me. Final Goodbyes were sad as usual

and there u have in people, my five days in outward bound.

I've offically come to the conclusion that this years sec 2 students are way smarter than the sec 3 batch...Lets do a comparision....we have three pure science classes and they have 5...hiye speaking of that....it seems rather easy to get into pure classes this year....one of my band members got a mere 55% and he actually succeded in taking bio chem plus amaths....how tyco...I slogged my hearts out to the 63% juz to get into a pure class and failed...luckily my appeal was sucessful and i'm proud to say i'm not the last in class...althought i have the second lowest psle score...wei liang being the lowest but hes so dame freaking smart....but lazy as usual

Speaking of subject combinations...i was in total shock upon seeing one of my friends being retained for the year....he used to constantly beat me in primary sch in academic results that is..i'm lost for words

After reading several blogs...i've realise that serveral people have actually started doing their sec 4 work....how hardworking...i need i should start revising my sec 3 work first...cause somehow i still dun feel confident about sec 3 stuff espically my amaths...

Why muz band always be on saturday...very demotivated to wake up so early on saturday juz to go for band

First day of extra lessons...and todays happens to me all the heavyweight subjects...hiye half the homework were being thrown to us today...Firstly for english,we're suppose to do ten blog entries and two new words are suppose to be included in every entry...how bombastic....ok...for once i'm actually gonna blog in perfect english...not exactly happy but not sad either....neutural...

A Maths lesson was crap...we're going deeper into things which i still strongly against..reason being?...i fail to see the uses of such things...why learn some radian measurment form when degree serves the same purpose...sian sian..pure torture...

Band was somewhat a happy affair today...mrs chua seem super high today constanly making jokes...till the point that some students were offended(she called their playing style cc)....Ok we're looking good for the SYF competition except that we really sound horrible during the changing of counts part....confusing sia...luckily i'm only playing parts in the 2/4 counts....wads scary is that its a complete solo...I'm actually looking foward to saturday...for once...

I Hope to get my creative earphones tmorrow..if i have the time that is...i saved up enough money...finally...
