woke up late today. class at 8am and i woke at 12!
graded lab sommore.

damn soccer match. ARSENAL LOST! LUCKY MAN U!

So anyway, sports climbing. It was a whole lot tougher than it looked. Somehow when I'm reaching the last slope, it gets super duper tiring and my fingers just refuse to hold on!
CRAMPED FOREARMS after that! haha. but i enjoyed it anyway. whats an enjoyable day without cramped muscles huh?

Anyway, me and siti got into the 2nd round of trials.
But I still feel my place is in triathlon.

I think there's something wrong with my com.
I cant seem to upload photos anywhere. Facebook cannot. Photobucket cannot.Blogspot cannot.

any suggestions?

-----

Could this possibly be happening?
I hope so. I'm working on it.
It just has to be.

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

Went for my usual midnight cycling at pasir ris park to figure out that feeling of discontent inside me.

Should I still keep to Track and Field? I just saw them training today and it hasnt changed one bit. Disappointed.

So

To join or NOT to join? That was the question! (hehe)
The inspiration was the BEACH, MY BIKE AND A JOGGER! A lightbulb was lit in my head!

Now if you're smart, figure out what sport involves the sea, a bicycle and running your bloody guts out!

Dont get me wrong, I've always wanted to be pushed to the limits because it keeps my mind focused and discipline intact (things that are non-existent to me without extremely rigorous training) I want a goal that requires TREMENDOUS effort and help me in self-realization. I want my whole body including my brain to be quivering so much with adrenaline that I cant think anything else but the race itself.

Besides, if im ever gonna make it in that vocation after BMT, why not start now?
It'll do me much good.

As Jinjia's msn nick applies,
"LIFE IS ABOUT CREATING THE BEST OUT OF ME NOT MORE FATS IN ME!"

EUREKA! Now I know where I went wrong.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the greatest theory ever made in this world. Albert Einstein's formula of E=MC2 will be nothing in comparison to this. HAHA!

I proclaim that the time spent on rest or recreation must equal to the amount of time spent in school.

thus if 26 hours is spent on work, you will require 26 hours of rest/recreation!

HAHAHA!

But of course boys and girls, you must study hard in school okay?. Manage time wisely like I have.
I promise you I'll be happy as a lark everyday when I adhere to this rule.
AND NO I WONT DROP IN MY STUDIES! IT WILL BE QUITE THE OPPOSITE!
I'm dead serious about 26 hours of rest and recreation.

All my life my gut feelings have been right
Could it be right once more?
Is this for real?
Lets hope so

Exhaustion shouldnt last this long. Somehow it has for me.
I cant be tired for almost every single minute of the day but its happened for today.
Mom suggested to go see the DOC!. heh. who knows?

Im the weirdest human being on the face of this earth.

I cant mix with BABIES. ESPECIALLY MY NIECE WHO KEPT FROWNED AT ME THE WHOLE DAY AND KEPT CRYING WHENEVER I HOLD HER! *sian!*. heh. she doesnt like me.lol.

I'm like a grandfather when it comes to younger children.
Im a weirdo with people one year older or younger than my age group.
Im like a typical AH BENG when it comes to being with guys who finish NS.
I mix damn well with adults.
I end up getting scolded all the time by the elderly.

The guys at today's soccer match thought I was already in University. Some of them cant even believe im still 19.

Now I seriously begin to wonder whether I was born here on Earth or my brain is upside down.

Enlighten me ladies and gentlemen. Thank you!

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

Friday was the breaking point. I've never been this exhausted in my life.

But I wont stop. for the sake of so many others who are relying on me.

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

Wednesday.

The most unbelievable news of my entire life was revealed to me.
What I cannot fathom is how blind I was not to have seen it earlier.

There were so many instances. So many occassions.
Oh, dont worry everyone. It doesnt concern me at all. hahaha

NPAP photos will be posted up next! Somehow there's something wrong with my computer's disk drive. Somehow looking at all the NPAP photos makes me humbled. It's only been a week but its felt like a year since I last opened the car doors for the CP,MP and minister.

I truly hope more people, especially the area 8 CIs will join again next year!

Family Honour.
If only this responsibility was shared among everyone els

A few days ago, Farith asked me why I decided to join NPAP again this year after participating last year.

Some would say it's about the position you get. But to me, its the contribution you make and the substantial amount of things you've learnt. THAT is what truly matters most to me.

THAT is what makes this parade so meaningful to me. Its neither the allocation I get nor the uniform that I get to wear. But what I've done with my time and I'm proud to say this..

It hasnt gone to waste. not one bit =)

NPCC Annual Parade 2009. What a memorable experience.
To put the whole event into words would not do it justice but I hope to inspire anyone of you reading this to come join the next NPAP.

People often say how boring it is to travel all the way from tampines to choa chu kang, stand in the hot sun, have long debriefs and so on but believe me when I say it was all worth it. Every single moment of it.

Looking at all the photos, I feel immensely proud that I was a part of the parade. whether it was big or small.

After you go through months of training, people will look at you and see in your eyes what you've done. And it shows. Me and Hongliang may not be the best people for the job but we put our heart and soul into the parade everytime. And after months of training, it all comes down to this moment to define 4 months of training.

And what a moment!

NPAP 09, definitely a milestone in my life!
Thanks to Syafiq, Zul, Mahir, Azman, Suhaily who came down and helped out!
Thanks to Iliee and Siti Suria for the support though I didnt manage to see either of you after the parade! *shucks!*
Thank you to all the FIs,HOs and fellow CIs who made this a wonderful learning experience for me and making the event a real success. You guys are wonderful.

I hope to see you guys again next year! Be it as spectators or parade trainers. Dont forget ah Siti Suria. One year from now!

ITS GONNA BE YOUR TURN! =)

I just recently had a look at the Insititute-varsity-polytechnic (track and field) results for 2007 and I think to myself,


it's possible!


Track and field here I come! I honestly believe it can be done. Who knows if that life long dream will come true one day?

Anyway, my voice is sore after wednesday's training. Got to watch myself for Saturday!
TWO MORE DAYS TO NPAP!
T-W-O

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

5 more days!

COME ON HONGLIANG!
WE'RE ALMOST THERE!

ITS THE PREVIEW ON WEDNESDAY!
LETS MAKE IT COUNT DUDE!

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

Another OLD MAN'S POST coming up! (as a result of staying up all night!)

As days go by, more self realisation experiences come through to me.
I realise I'm raw potential like children are.

They're young and full of raw energy. I saw raw because they're always exploring and doing stuff. They're not really focused on a fixed long term goal YET. But the problem is that a person of MY AGE cant afford to be like that. My efforts and energies should be diverted on ALL FRONTS instead of remaining in a pool.

A few years ago back in sec school, my efforts always seem enormous but that's secondary school. Now, in poly, being more exposed to the world, the efforts are correspondingly bigger.

But now that my efforts are bigger, the goals are EVEN LARGER!
The goals I set are rather...well, quite a handful.
Does it all seem like an impossible task?
NEVER

The only limit is the goal itself!

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

They say that the dreams in your sleep often depict what you truly desire.

Well, I dreamt I was on a rickety bridge spanning a river like the yellow river in China. strong currents and the bridge was wobbling like hell. somehow the river reminds me more of India.

And for those of you who are smart enough,
Yes, I was fishing. HAHA! well, catching crabs more like with my cage. AND I GOT THIS GARGANTUAN FLOWER CRAB! Big enough to swallow my head whole. If only I ever get a crab like that. haha.

okok enough about dreams.
Here's something more realistic.


2 out of the 5 years (or rather 10 years) have been achieved. Does it all seem like an impossible task? My past seniors have tried it before and it ended at 2 years as well.
I seek to dispel the smokescreen. We must seek FIVE. We must seek TEN!

Marsiling has made it to 5. New town and bartley have made it to 10 a long time ago. and now Maris Stella has done so. This is a task that we can do! I dont see why it shouldnt be possible if others have done so.

Sadly, I can only stay until end of 2010. I can only see them through four out of FIVE years unless the SCI application gets through and I stay on until I turn 22 but highly unlikely.

Nonetheless, I will fight tooth and claw to get there.

Every holiday season its the same thing. NO WORK.

For the period of March-April, its mostly devoted to NPCC.I'm fortunate enough to work on weekends courtesy of suhendi. lets hope there's work this weekend eh. its the last week before school starts and NPAP!

(NPAP'09 COUNTDOWN: 9 DAYS!!)

For the period of Sept to October, well, maybe its because I was either lazy or there's very few jobs that suit me though. heh. I guess its the worrying part of finding a job in the future that probably makes me wanna join the civil service. As a matter of fact, all my family members are civil servants with the exception of my sister who's got a job at some auditing firm.

Oh well. At least the good thing about getting a weekend job is that I wont have to rely on my mom. except for the weekends where there's no work of course.

Went down for Speech Day Rehearsal today.
Crazy. Just crazy!

Looking forward to school now. heh. Semester 2.2. I'm gonna make sure the GPA reaches 3.0 before I graduate. Wonder whats my CDS.

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

I forgot what I was supposed to type out here anyway.

The holidays have been zooming by very quickly. Funnily enough, things are on the rise. like seriously on the rise. Once school reopens, I'm joining the track and field team. But I wonder what are the obligations of balancing this much stuff. As they always say, sem 2.2 is the toughest one of all.

So anyway, a tumultous week! Honestly. The whole week devoted to NPCC and asses (feels weird using this name for the very first time.lol) Tiring like hell but when it comes to them, anything is fun eh? haha.

And here's something very random that came to my mind,

"Sometimes the road less travelled is scary. Sometimes the fear of the unknown overpowers that adrenaline in your heart. But here's a tip. In the eyes of another, what you perceive to be something so calm and relaxed may in fact be their biggest fear. So if it helps, just imagine you're someone else"

Makes sense? what do you think?
oh btw everyone, my brother says it wasnt crayfish. It was LOBSTERS! but lobsters THAT small? I have no idea. heh.

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

So disappointed with myself during the full dress rehearsal.
I'm gonna go all out and work harder. Non-stop practice with Hongliang and the car.
I really mean it.
Non-stop

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

Food for thought.


How do you confuse a mat?

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

I SPENT 5 YEARS OF MY LIFE COMBATING ALL THIS BIASED-NESS.

COMBATING PEOPLE WITH THE LIKES YOU!
GO! WE ARE BETTER OFF WITHOUT YOU!

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

Turn this shit into a blossoming flower.

Used the crab cages at the lake behind TP overnight. went back the next morning and caught CRAYFISH! TEN of them sommore. WHEE!

Enough is enough. I will turn this world upside down.

I'll be back when you call me; no need to say goodbye

If we were all the kings and queens
I'd probably be your only servant in this world
