Modern minds of '85

Hey. Today is Saturday. Started My day at 12. Ate lunch and then went back to slumber. Woke up and watched Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium from a Dvd, wasted 2 hrs of my life. Then Cheryl said that she wanted to go Bugis so I followed her, with mom. Shit. It was bloody crowded and hot. I regretted going. It was the first time I sweated while shopping. Bought nothing at Bugis Street. Then we wanted to cross the road. It took 3 red lights to reach the other side. Normally it would have been 1 only. We were basically queuing. Bought a pair jeans and a pair of slacks. I am so bored. Can someone suggest something to do.

Today we had a half day, because our seniors did very well for the 'O' levels. Yeaa. We only had 2 periods of physics which nobody cared because they were thinking of what to do after school. School ended but... Wait I still had training. Shucks. To put it simple we had training and then we went to support our seniors at TP. They were playing Dunman Sec not to be mistaken for Dunman High, the smart one. They won. Whoosh. We will be playing on Monday with GMSS and tuesday for Dunman sec. Wish us luck. Byee. Here are some vids. Enjoy...

Now that the english blog project is over I will post shorter posts, I still like talking in normal english lol. :) Today was just plain boring, but at least I got to skip history to go for competition. Maths was just this quiz and some recap before the quiz. Literature was the poem powerpoint that we did last week and we had to bring that poem and answer questions about that poem. russ and I forgot to bring the poem... Crap. So we just slacked till it was over. Our english teacher said that she told us to bring it before hand but I had no recollection of it, neither did anyone else in the class. After slacking, we asked our english teacher if we could do the thing again when we had the poem, and she agreed. Yeaah (: English was a breeze we just had to listen to a cyber awareness talk. It was pretty interesting although I bet no one would really but it into action. It was really an eye-opener when the presenter showed us a picture of some girls doing stuff that normal girls wouldn't do... and the crowd went wild. lol Luckily I'm not that despo. Then it was competition time . Ours was the last match but we went really early. We played Dunman High, of course we won lar. But our performance was pretty lousy. Then it was whoosh back home. i also did something really stupid today, I was so bored that I googled my name. lol. All I saw were blog posts. Ok now I gotta do my homework liao bye ...

I had nothing really interesting in Saturday & Sunday, so I summing it up in one post. Saturday was homework day so I completed almost all my homework and then I went shopping with my sis, Cheryl. I bought a chain from 77th street and new flip flops her are some pics. By the way I also had a new hairstyle.

That sums up Saturday.

Sunday is just is boring woke up late, missed church and now I am here blogging. But at least Russ is coming on Monday that may kill my Monday blues. I got bored, so I searched for some funny signs. Here

Bye hope you liked them.

Today was a typical Friday, slack and slack. During science lab, we played with this cool thing called a ray box. I was there first but all the idiots in my class pushed me way back but I promised myself not to get angry, so instead i decided to teach them a lesson by turning on and off the power repeatedly. Haha. Then for P.E we played soccer. I'm not complaining but having to stay under the HOT sun for 1 hour kicking a ball was pretty tiring and I have training today. Damn. "Ringgg..." recess I assumed that inflation would not really affect us kids but I was wrong it did. The price is the same but the portions are smaller MUCH smaller. It is really causing some strain on my pocket but I just have to explain to my parents and I hope they understand. Chinese lesson was a little weird, we had to write a composition about this boy that was going to commit suicide but in the end ... I wrote that in the end I saved the boy. Typical, boring, normal I know, but I had limited time so I had no choice. Some guys joked that maybe we could "accidentally" pushed him down. Timo lost another of his possessions, a chinese dictionary and I have the feeling that he just forgot to bring and just said that someone had stolen it how convenient to get out of trouble. Someone stolen my chinese textbook and now I have to borrow from people how pathetic. That idiot who stole it better own up or else. My guess is someone who starts with a "T" and rhymes with "emo" hope you guess who. In Literature lesson we studied this poem called ... ( I forgot) but in English its called " It's right to die for your country" from 1 to 10 of boringness I give it 7 which is boring with some nice parts. Then training, coach did not come again, it was the usual, service, 3 vs 3, free spiking and gym. Boring. The good part is that it ended early. On the way back I saw a dead rat in a drain. So I decided to dedicate this day to all the dead rats that I have seen.

This one was somewhere near Katong.

This one was in my backyard.

This was the one I saw today while walking home. Here is a link http://www.roofrats.org/roof_rat_ethics.htm to a weird website dedicated to dead rats and other weird stuff. By the way just to inform you, Anjie and Yijun were being hit down by a lorry today and are now in the hospital. Yijun only has minor cuts and bruises but Anjie has more serious injuries. Let us deliver our hopes and well wishes to them. But do I care ??? Maybe a little for Yijun. Okay, I got to go bye.

Today I was almost late to go to school reached at about 7.10a.m. way off from my normal time of 7.00a.m. so I couldn't have my usual chit-chat in class. The first lesson was maths. Our maths teacher returned us our first assignment, and the first thing I saw was incomplete. What!! I vividly remember doing the entire assignment. Why did I get the words incomplete plastered across my paper. Then it dawned on me that I did only the questions(a) but not the questions(b). How forgetful I was. Then it was literature, we discussed about this poem called "digging". It was a very interesting poem in which the poet's father and grandfather are farmers but he is a writer but yet he respects their jobs and says that whatever you do as long as you do it well it would be worthwhile. Then my favourite time of the day - recess. After recess, I had to go to the dentist for a check-up

. I had the impression that it would be a quick one by it dragged and dragged for two entire periods. One hour in an air-conditioned room with nothing to do. How boring. So my body went into hibernate mode. Then it was my turn for her to check. She found out that a had a decayed tooth. Oh no! The drilling and filling yet again, in primary school I was one of the dentist's 'regulars' and I was familiar with the entire procedure. But it would take a long time so, the dentist asked me to come after school. But I have training so, I have too choose one, teeth or training. "To go or not to go for training" quoted from Shakespeare. Finally I made the tough the decision and went to fill my teeth. Anyway personal hygiene was more important to me than training. After, that it was back to class. history was really boring we were in groups and as usual Cedric, Russell and I were chit-chatting. Our history teacher said he would show us a film if we were good, and obviously we were on our best behaviour. While he was loading the disc the fire alarm rang

.No... not now please not now. But it was the fact, there was a fire safety exercise. What a waste of being good. We had to lay in the hot sun of a "couple" of minutes and then we proceeded back to class to collect our bags and leave. Then it was the time to conquer my fears. I had to see the dentist. It was painful but I had to bear with it as it would be more painful if it was more decayed. I nipped the problem in the bud and soon my teeth were as though nothing had happened to it. I would say the dentist did a pretty good job. Then, it was down to training. I thought I fared not bad in todays training. However, coach had a totally different thinking he said that a was under performing. What rubbish, I ignored him and I will show him that I am not under performing but over performing. Then another prep talk from our teacher-in-charge for the upcoming competition. Then back home for a hot bath and to hit the books. Today's dinner is coffee pork rib's with tiger prawns and vegetables. The pork rib's is a new recipe that my grandmother learned and it was absolutely delicious. I loved the meat with blobs of coffee still hanging on to the rib's begging me to eat it which of course I did. Well time to actually do some homework. Bye. This is a video that Mr Siow let us watch before but I'm showing it again.

Here is an remix of the video.

I love the part where he waves his hands, this referee seriously is missing a screw in his head. Well this is really goodbye for now.

I had a really late night yesterday, so I think that explains why I was sleepy in the morning. My brain was fuzzy and I couldn't think properly for a while. In the morning we had Design & Technology. Yes! A real great opportunity to sleep of just to let my brain rest as not much serious work is done in that lesson. Then recess, the best part of school. I had Nasi Briyani it's really tasty and full of spices I totally enjoyed it. I just know hot it tasted and regret not having know it earlier. After that we had another boring lesson of maths, I mean its not for the teachers to make the lessons interesting but at least don't drone on and on non stop with a voice that can put people to sleep.Russell drew a portrait of our maths teacher and it didn't look that bad, just that he drew his face a little to the plump side and soon the piece of paper was going to the incinerator. Then it was Chinese lesson, we had to listen to a passage and visualise it. It was about a abnormal boy whose hands are stuck in a weird way, so instead of visualising I started to do the exact things that we were listening to and that obviously that got me into trouble. Then my Chinese teacher wanted to go through the passage and she asked us to take off our books. I dug into my bag put couldn't find it. Oh no another dose of scolding, but this was totally not my fault. Luckily, lady luck was shining on me and I didn't receive another earful that could permanently spoil my eardrums. Then now English lesson, I tend to be a bit cranky in the morning and in the afternoon and now was the time I would usually go cranky. But somehow I managed to suppress it and release it later in the day. Ms Fox was talking about the commonwealth composition. I had what I wanted to write in my mind already so while she was talking I finished the rough draft of my composition. Teehee! Now writing it would be a walk in the park. Although I have no idea whether would she like it. I hope my composition wins, just joking what are the chances. Finger's crossed though. Then a light lunch and volleyball training starts

. Gosh my life is really boring. Played a few matches among ourselves and not long after it started raining

. Really heavily, but we still had to retrieve the balls and after doing that we were drenched for top to bottom. I MIGHT be sick tomorrow. The weather this year is pretty crazy it can be sunny and out of nowhere it starts to rain and the cycle starts again and again. The indoor sports hall will be built in 2009 thats when I'm secondary 3 and by the time it's done I would be study for "O" levels so not much chance of me using it. So for now we have to brave the elements and train really hard. Since it was raining we did gym and after that service after the rain. Doing gym is really boring, no one really does gym all they do is sit around and talk, mostly about girls. Unless coach comes then everybody would disperse and pretend to do. After training, Miss Yong our teacher-in-charge and my Chinese teacher treated us to drinks. Her treating us is really occasional and this time I think it's because of the raise in civil servants pay. I haven't confirmed yet but my gut feel says thats the reason. The walk home was uneventful, but while walking home I realised all the dogs start to bark at me. I do not know why, maybe I can talk to animals that is a possibility, but how many people can talk to animals, zero is my answer. Mom is screaming at me to go to sleep, so I better do as ' Her Majesty ' orders. But before I turn in here is a video for you.

Really funny with a few sequels.

In recent news, I read that the infamous blogger Wendy Chen aka www.xiaxue.blogspot.com has been archived in the NLB lists of blogs. There has been much buzz over this issue. I think that the NLB should have chosen a better blog that incorporates humour and issues that affect that everyday Singaporean like mine :), just joking. Her blog does not really have any educational info inside and everything inside is just rubbish, utter rubbish. Her sentences also has the tendency to host beautiful expletives. I feel that NLB should have chosen better. Like something that puts Singaporean's in a better light. Today was a quite boring day for me. To tell you frankly, I was not even paying attention in class today. My physical body was in school but my mind was floating away to other places. After school, I was so relieved that training was only for the upper secondary. If I went for training I would be totally exhausted. So Hazwan, Sanjeev and I went to Cedric's house to play, something which we had not done for a long time and sorely missed. On my way back home, I saw this boy wearing a school uniform shouting at his maid. He not only did that he also hurled expletives to her but threw his bag at her. I think it was something to do with packing his bag. But I was not so busybody as to take a closer look. I feel that domestic helpers are still human and we should treat them like humans. Even though she made a mistake, to err is human but to forgive is godly. I feel that there is something wrong with youths today, they are becoming ruder and ruder maybe they are being influenced by television programmes etc. Luckily, I am not that rude. I chanced by an interesting video of some Singaporeans. It doesn't put Singaporean's in a good light many foreigners say that Singapore is a civilized and people here can solve problems amicably but after watching this video I have second thoughts.

I have another one of old women fighting in Russia this is really funny :)

Today my sister went to her friend, Chanel's birthday party. While she was at her friends party i went to church and after church i went home to do homework. My sister always attends cool parties but I do not. It's not that I don't like my friends but I hope that they can be more care-free and let there hair down. Anyway after my sister came home she was ranting about how fun that party was. Boy, i was very pissed. Rifle shooting, rock climbing, going to jungle gyms and many more fun activities. It sounded so exciting. I envied her so much and you should have seen her goodie bag it was full of vouchers and cool stuff. Watching the Noose now it is really funny but i watched a better version of spoofed news on youtube.

There are much more of this on youtube 8 episodes in all, it's really funny. Smell ya laterÜ

Today I woke up at 11.30am because last night I slept at 1am as always. I ate lunch of beef noodles but there was chicken instead of beef. I felt the chicken a little undercooked and i told mom but she said that it was just right, so i ate it obediently. Right after I ate it I rushed to the toilet. Bad stomachache I was in there for 30 minutes and when i finished there was no toilet paper. Oh no it resulted in a very bad stain on my underwear. After that went to Ikea to refund some stuff

and i had some hot dogs and ice cream

while waiting. While I was waiting the lady behind told her sons that the store had no ice cream and if they wanted ice cream they had to go to the other queue. She lied to them, but when i went to buy ice cream she was so embarrassed she had to buy ice cream for them. Ha ha. I remember when I was young my mom would also regularly say that I must not make any noise or the 'Garang guni' or the rag and bone man would catch you. Up till this day mothers still use that same phrase - 'keep quiet or the garang guni man would catch you'. They lied and still if we lie to them a good scolding is assured. On the way home dad realised that he had brought the cordless phone into the car. All of us in the car had a real good laugh. I tried to use it to call home, but there was no reception, must be because it was too far from the base. Mom is cooking crayfish and salmon pasta tonight, i hope it tastes good. A few workers came today to do some last minute adjustments but the more they work on our house the more damage they do. Like when they tried drilling a hole the whole tile cracked so the had to replace the tile and drill another hole i hope they do not spoil it again this time. The time they estimated my house to be finished was 25 December but now its 12 January and its still not completed. Delays delays delays. I really hope they would finish quickly so we can have some peace and quiet. When mom went to brush her teeth she said that her tongue looked a bit deformed and she was going to the doctor tomorrow to go for a check. Mom is so paranoid. I watched Brother's Grim and after that I prepared to go to bed . I received a sms from Chuan Yuan, Nicholas Rai has mad a miraculous recovery and is coming back on Monday. I can't wait to see him back in school, hope he can catch up with missing two days of lesson. Anyway I found a video of Cedric, Sanjeev, Russell and me on youtube of us singing when we were Sec 1 enjoy it. :)Sorry Folks I removed the video because Sanjeev thought that it might offend some people so here is another video. A much funnier one :)
