Finally,i learned how to play a complete song on guitar...its goo goo dolls"sympathy"...great song,easy to learn,easy to play...its a good song for a beginner.the only problem now is that my fingers are killing me.I won't be suprised if they get blistered the next time i touch a guitar.I also managed to bar chord once or twice...have to practice more
My PI got rejected...WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO SATISFY MY F***ING TEACHERS!!!!!
*sigh*now i need to think about another idea...i already came up with one but i better churn out more to meet the "high and demanding standards" of my teachers.
Got thrown the photographer job for tomorrow's Risen.That means i have to run around blocking people to take pictures of the skit/play/dun-no-wat thing we have.I don't know if i should stayover to cover the other events...night thingie and sunrise service...after,i have to hand in my PI and study for my chem test.
The friday outing was called off on account that lynette had no idea it was good friday...classic lynette.the girl can miss a talking monkey on the street if it came up to her and asked her for directions.
I have to make time to go collect my ezlink card...got caught by a inspector and she blacklisted my bro's card which i was using...at leat she didn't retain it.Honestly,the sbs transit people are a buch of cheebai motherfuckers...they retain a card on the slightest pretext and don't believe the cardowner when he/she says they go to JC and not poly...honestly,there has to be some trust in Singapore society...we can't be kiasu to the point that we assume that everyone talking to us is a potential liar.I think thats one of the reasons people migrate to other countries...if our society is filled with suspicion and you can escape it,why not???Me,i think the US or NZ wouldn't be so bad...the climate is nicer too.
Speaking of climate,it rained so heavily today that the roads were flooded as i took a bus home...even the rain channels that lead to the sea were overflowing to the point that water was flowing above the railing and spilling over to the pavement...i wouldn't want to be on foot in those areas...i would practically have to swim to get past...
I'm also thinking of getting an electric guitar...Joel says that the cheapest is $120 but it sucks...i checked out Yamaha(bunch of ripoffs) and theirs was about $450...i think i should try peninsula...they probably have better deals.After all,i haven"t even included the amps yet.The real question though is can i get enough $$ to buy one...
Should go to sleep now...planning to go running tomorrow...get in shape,lose some weight and most importantly WAKE UP TO STUDY CHEM/PLAY GUITAR...
When I was wont to meet her
In the silent woody places
By the home that gave me birth,
We stood tranced in long embraces
Mixt with kisses sweeter sweeter
Than anything on earth.

The end is near...the END OF THE WEEK!!!
Another day...another 1/7 of the week rushes by and i get closer to my tests.Seriously, its practicaly the end of the week for me. Thursday isn't so bad once you go through a Tuesday with my timetable...can we request for a timetable change at the next dialogue session??
Had another cca session today...played bridge for 3 hours straight...won some lost some...i mean,you can't win'em all rite??
Yi Cheng told me there's a class outing on fri...i really don't know whether i should go or not because its apparently organized by lynette...No offense meant but she isn't really good at organizing stuff unless Nellie is doing it with her.Plus its at Suntec and that is like really troublesome...give me someplace near home or an mrt station along the east-west line...i like things to be convienent.
there was a house metting today...not very good as it meant i missed an hour of sleep...J2s are so lucky...they only start school at 9.15 meaning they only need to wake up at 8.00+...Me?i wake up at 5.15...often with only 6 hours of sleep under my eyes...At least i get more sleep then Joel...the guys running on 3 hrs and less...dun know how he does it.
Also,nominated Gordon as house comm during the meeting.I think he secretly wanted to volunteer but was too paiseh...if its one thing photographic society has thought me,its to have a thick skin...i mean,i stick my butt at at least one person everytime i press the shutter...if that's not embarrasing,what is??
I'm getting worried about my upcoming tests...econs was a nightmare...7/20 and i tied for first in class...overall highest was a 11 though so its not so bad...means i'm 4 marks short of the best student...MUST DO BETTER NEXT TIME!!!
I also made up my mind to start training for NAPFA...i don't want to miss out on the games i can play if i make the cut.So far,i've just been doing pull-ups but i better start running as well...its no good doing ok for 5 items but failing the 6th because it still counts as a fail overall.
I better stop here if not this post will take bloody long to post.
i can't sleep knowing there's hope,
half the night i waste in sighs,
half in dreams i sorrow.
the delight of early skies;
in a wakeful doze i sorrow,
for the hand, the lips, the eyes;
for the metting of the morrow

Hey,haven't blogged in a while...just been so tired recently. Tomorrow is a killer day(tues) for me...I end at 5.05 for crying out loud!!Today was fun,watched the MJC soccer team thrash Hwa Chong 3-0.Hwa Chong started out with this big spurt of energy,attacking all the way.I honestly believe that they had possesion 65% of the time in the first half.Luckily good defending and a change of goalkeeper kept the first half scoreless.
We burst back in the second half scoring from a penalty and free kick.The free kick was a really good one...the players faked the HCI team by faking twice.One guy took the free kick,passing it to another guy who then passed again to a third guy who took the shot.The HCI keeper was really baffled by the double fake and his own people were obstructing his vision so he couldn't react in time.When i played keeper for street-soccer,i always tried to keep my people clear of my vision...goes to show that the danger of your own defenders blocking you is a real and deadly threat and MJC proved that.
Now i need to rush out an essay for KI and a PI for my project work.
Din tink can sleep 2nite...haiz
tell me that we belong together
dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above...

feeling like complaining
Have been trying to learn I'll Be by Erwin Mccain...its not that complicated,all plucking,no strumming...but i have no idea of the timing!!So the end result is that i have notes but no melody...bit contradictory there.
I skipped lit lecture to do my chem assignment and tutorial...thats 0 of 2 for my lecture attendence...not very good.My biggest problem as of tonight is my PI...i have no idea of what to do...everyone is getting creative,thinking of samurai,geishas,dragonboat etc.Me?im stuck with no ideas at all...i am so dead.
I also signed up for triton 100m tryouts...i have no idea what possessed me to do that...hopefully,i won't be last...at least i pray that won't happen.The one highlight is that friday is a super short day for me so it's like my weekend is starting early.
One thing im feeling sore about is the dvd version of cinderella story that i bought.One is that it is english with chinese subtitles or chinese with chinese subtitles and i can't change those settings.Two is that it is devoid of any special features...i might as well have bought the vcd...now i know why its so cheap...same price as the vcd.
MJC finally won a soccer match...we beat AJC 3-2 today...it should have been 4 or 5-1.The mj goalkeeper made a silly mistake and let in one he shouldn't have.The 4 or 5 comes from a penalty we should have converted...the AJ goalkee dived before the kick so the shooter should have changed direction or angle.Another is a supposed "offside"...im not convinced about that...i mean,there was a defence present when we scored...
Right now,the critical match is with ACJC...we have to win this one to qualify for the nationals...so its win or die,make it or break it and any other terms you would like to add...
Half the night I waste in sighs,
Half in dreams I sorrow after
The delight of early skies;
In a wakeful doze I sorrow
For the hand, the lips, the eyes,
For the meeting of the morrow,
The delight of happy laughter,
The delight of low replies.

freedom from work blog!!
i decided to create my own blog,as in not related to KI...whew, at least i dun hav 2 watch wat i say anymore.
really sian today...jus went out and bought some xpensive stuff.I hav no idea why im infatuated wth Hilary Duff but i bought her cd and movie dvd...the dvd i understand because the story is really meaningful...but somehow when i watched it,i kinda fell in love wth her.Really weird.I forced myself out of it,but occasionally i'll still fantasise in my head talkin to her...usually when im daydreaming.wtf.at least i got a way to switch off during boring lectures...jus daydream.
my pw 1st draft is due tomorrow and i havent started on it yet.im hoping to rush through it after dinner.
one really interesting thing that happened to me when i was out was that i kept hearing kelly clarkson's because of you.I heard it at long john tm,some shop i walked past and a few other places.
anw,i have to go chiong my work...*sigh* dun tink i can sleep 2nite.
