SRY PPL who viewed... i'm too busy playing water margin online www.108.com.my nowadays.. so no time to blog.. ;)

LESS then a year to ORD.. wonderful! actually, its not tat difficult to pass time in the ARMY. lets count..

3mts in BMT
2.5mths in SISPEC, BSLC
2.5mths in ETI else ASLC

tat means 8 mths gone. SOooo fast.

i did Company Orderly Sgt duty last sun.. N, something 'creepy' happened..

there was this thunderstorm in the afternoon and apparently, the fuse blown, causing the lights of the area to be unable to switch on. there's no street lights around the company line. it was pitch dark. my building have electricity but my office's aircon is spoilt. btw, my office's at the ground floor.

everything is going fine till approx 2300 hrs.. i was going to drink at the water cooler outside the office. as i approached the door, i heard a faint scratch. tat kind u hear when u scratch the table. then a 2nd one came... who the hell will scratch my door at 2300hrs... my mind was," dun play leh. its the ghost festival.." i was bloody thirsty then. so i decided," confirm got ppl playing 1, open the door la. i needed a drink." n i opened the door..

N, u noe WTH i saw!.. a damn dog walk, jog away frm the door... FARKING HELL! it scared me for like 1.5min.. damn it

anyways, enjoy the ghost festival. bless tat nothing happen next week as i'm the COS again.

have walked in n graduated from SISPEC. it seems the past 10 weeks went by in a blink. the first day walking into the bunk n the last day felt the same. SAD.. felt sad the first day because i've been seperated with my frens at BMT. the last day in SISPEC is the same.. sad as i've been posted to different unit with my brothers in SISPEC. we did all the shit together.. in BMT, its the field camp n 24Km march. in SISPEC, its grandslam, nutcracker n the 28K march...

now i'm posted to ETI to get my sgt rank. 11 more weeks.. well, will be meeting more ppl n making more frenz. hope to enjoy my life here.

2005-06-05T19:31:00.000-07:00

Now.. this could be the final blog i'm posting before the army.. since i dun have much time left.. still not prepared for it. i've not prepared. was woken up by a call frm You Wei this morning, asking me if i've bought the stuffs.. Obviously, nothing have been done to prepare myself for NS.. nothing, mentally n physically.. Friends were like asking me to train up b4 it.. but, too lazy lar~ so, i'm going to feel the toughness of the PTP. anyways.. its okie for me.. i'm not the least bit worried..

Have been lazing around.. went for dinner at Fei Cui last wed.. the 'xiao long bao' n 'la mian' is still damn good.. we, 5 ppl, spent bout a hundred on the food. so, its approx 20 each.. cheap!

worked at the EXPO it fair.. it started on thur n ended on sun.. sales wasn't good.. i mean for me.. i sold a total of 6 laptops ONLI..

thur - 0
fri - 0
sat - 1
sun - 5

sadly.. tat didn't qualify me for the incentives given. saw alot familiar faces there.. the NEC booth is just opp me.. they were like.. 'hey! wats up with tat uniform! shouldn't u be wearing black with NEC.. y is it red with FUJITSU on it! wa lan.. dun snatch my sales sia!' but, they din know tat ppl interested with fujitsu seldom walk over to NEC.. and ppl that are looking for ACER and NEC, seldom/ never buy fujitsu.. the difference in the prices are juz too high....

now.. for the long awaited pics! these pics are psted without the approval of my classmates.. Shhhh~~~

The Ring! its taken out frm the video..

My lecturer pose-ing.. nice smile he's got

wei wei showing off his good grades.. think its 89..

The most unlucky day of 2004... these ticket was shared between the three of us.. wei wei , ah mei n me.. 0932 jumped.. the 1st n 3rd price.. n 2580 jumped.. which is the 2nd price.. go check it out at http://www.singaporepools.com.sg.. u go see the result on 1st of DEC 2004

2005-05-24T21:47:00.000-07:00

woke up early yesterday, 6am, to go for my driving lessons.. how long has it been since i woke up tis early.. i mean, not like the actual 7.30am.. went for my breakfast and left for BBDC.. was reading my A&D when i spotted tis middle aged guy, reading 'the da vinci code'.. apparently, he's so engrossed tat he missed his station and had to run opp to the train heading to parsi ris.. tat the power of books i guess...

juz had my lunch n saw wei wei's father.. he' working juz opp my father's place, my friendly neighourhood 'collegue'.. chatted awhile b4 i left n came to eat snake at Roland's office..

23052005

2005-05-23T08:26:00.000-07:00

i'm here, 11.30pm.. blogging.. wanted very much to slp.. but, i've juz got a new book! so into it!
Angels & Demons by Dan Brown
Nice! i'm introducing it to u... but, if u have read 'The Da Vinci's Code', u need not be intro-ed.. u'll get it.. frm all leading book stores near u.. got it at $13.44, MPH, city link.. din have $ wif me.. so, i used the final 20 bucks in my bank.. its worth it..

18052005

2005-05-18T03:07:00.000-07:00

i'm freaking tired now.. went for the 'long awaited' kbox session.. it was dragged, for an uncountable amount of weeks... sang frm 7pm-3am.. crazy.. n now, i'm at my the company, eating snake.. i can sleep any time now.. really! slpet at 5 last nite.. woke up at 7.55 tis morning.. argh.. damn uncomfortable now...

16052005

2005-05-15T09:17:00.000-07:00

well.. i've not blogged for 16 days..

hmmm.. got my result slip back.. sadly, i've graduated wif on As.. onli 3B n 2C.. damn.. FYP, as expected, a C... the result came together with a letter, telling me to log on to SAS, to confirm my attendance for the graduation ceremony.. i'd be in NS then.. so, i'm not sure if i'm able to go. sadness..

i've found my Top Spin n Crimson Skies... originals, for just $25 each... lalala.

can't modify my xbox, unless i bring it to JB. but, nvm.. i'd be getting 2nd hand originals.. play for a few mths.. then sell. or rather.. play for a mth.. then i can sell every thing.. cause the NS' sucking me in n i'm making it an enjoyable 'trip'!

30042005

2005-04-30T02:23:00.000-07:00

5 more lessons to end my driving.... hoping it to end ASAP!! then i can go get my license b4 NS..

went ZOUK ytd.. my first time there. Benny's BD.. went together wif mich, grace, zhen zhen, patrick, puay yong, zhu kai N nelson (zhen hui).. my long lost primary sch mate.. din see him for years.. crapp-ed arnd and went home at 3..

NEW ANIMES

Basilisk (8/10)
MAR (Marchen Awakens Romance) (7.5/10)

Basilisk is a good one.. something to do with ninjas.. i, personally, think tat its better then naruto.. not the storyline.. but the characters.. ninjas moves n kill without any sound.. naruto is simply too noisy.. think bout summoning a gigantic frog to fight with hugh serpents.. n, they go BOOM BOOM BOOM.. tat defeats the purpose of silent kill..

anyways, they've juz came out.. enjoy them when u are free, like me....

22042005

2005-04-22T05:03:00.000-07:00

wow! its a long time since i've posted.. lets see... i've 'graduated' (non-official).. rushing for my driving liecense.. i'm having lessons almost every day.. hoping to get it b4 my enlistment date.. (11th june)!

it happens to be the day b4 my last paper when the LETTER came.. i was like" Wat the hell! no mood le!".. on second thoughts.. i'm thinking" eh~ i can fail the last paper.. then i can defer the ns thing.. wa haha".. but, i've decided to face NS.. (wei wei was saying" damn! i can't defer.. i've already passed my ECS.. no need to take exam oso pass..")

hmm.. can't post any pics currently.. the laptop is still not available.. sadness.. maybe next week..

had my 'class' chalet right after the exams.. 13th april.. little ppl turned up.. but we still enjoyed.. they were suggesting ZOUK next week.. argh.. i'm short of $$$.. waiting for my pays to come..

my current free time are spent on animes n badminton.. played wif you wei n yong sheng last wed at TP, their home ground.. should get them to SP to play some days, even though i've 'grad', its still my home ground...

new anime to intro:
- The Law of Ueki points given-(7/10)
-Casshern (not an anime, or rather somehing like FF avent children) ponits given-(9/10)

naruto is still coming out slowly.. ep 131 onli..
one piece is at ep 140.
bleach, onli at ep 28.. don't think it'd hit 100..

well, i read an article on English on newpaper today.. it says tat it(english) is the only language tat does not have a fix spelling.. eg, was - woz.. they are both the same.. n the pronounciation of broth is not the same as BROTH-er.. can't really explain it here.. if u have the chance, get a copy of today's, 22nd april, newpaper..

i'm stopping here.. call me up if any of u wants a game of badminton, or if u have any jobs to intro.. i'm broke right now..

but, tat interviewer, mr tan, is not bad la.. he gave us 'intelligent' comments.. unlike lao wang.. giving those stupid ideas... n, he gave comments tat 'hit' lao wang indirectly.. too much.. i can't remember all of them..

Life is Like a Boat

2005-01-16T01:02:00.000-08:00

Life is Like a Boat -- Rei Fu

Nobody knows who I really am

I never felt this empty before

And if I ever need someone to come along

Who's gonna comfort me and keep me strong?

We are all rowing the boat of fate

The waves keep on coming and we can't escape

But if we ever get lost on our way

The waves will guide you through another day

Tooku de iki o shiteru --- I know we have so far to go

Toome ni natta mitai --- Within the connections I see

Kurayami ni omoeta kedo --- Thoughts of darkness, and so

Mekaku shisareteta dake --- I adjust my mask of serenity

Inori o sasagete --- I offer up a prayer

Atarashii hi o matsu --- And wait for a new day

Asayaka ni hikaru umi --- In the brilliance of the shining sea

Sono hate made e --- Until there is a shore

Nobody knows who I really am

Maybe they just don't give a damn

But if I ever need someone to come along

I know you will follow me and keep me strong

Hito no kokoro wa utsuri yuku --- People go fishing in their hearts

Mukedashitaku naru --- And have become deceitful

Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de --- Again a new cycle of the moon

Fune o tsureteku --- Brings someone into my heart

And every time I see your face

The oceans heave up to my heart

You make me wanna strain at the oars

And soon I can see the shore

Ah, I can see the shore?

When will I see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am

I never thought I'd feel this way towards you

And if you ever need someone to come along

I will follow you and keep you strong

Tabi wa mada tsuzuiteku --- Still, the journey continues on

Odayaka na hi mo --- Even on a gentle day

Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de --- Again a new cycle of the moon

Fune o terashiasu --- Sends a shine into my heart

Inori o sasagete --- I offer up a prayer

Atarashii hi o matsu --- And wait for a new day

Asayaka ni hikaru umi --- In the brilliance of the shining sea

Sono hate made e --- Until there is a shore

And every time I see your face

The oceans heave up to my heart

You make me wanna strain at the oars

And soon I can see the shore

Unmei no mune o kogi --- To the uncertain fate of the heart

Nami wa tsuki kara tsugi e to --- The waves are stages of the moon

Watashitachi o osou kedo --- To us it seems as if

Sore mo suteki na tabi ne --- It's a wonderful journey

Dore mo suteki na tabi ne --- What a wonderful journey

Life...

2005-01-15T03:50:00.000-08:00

i've been thinking.. pondering.. wondering.. for the past week.

wat's suppose to be MY life? this HAD never bothered me...

thur my poly life, billard, pool, singapore pools, slacking, lazing... none of them has ever left me.. tutorials, MST, SE, Lab test, quiz.. they are all part of a process.. a process that i've been going through for my years of education. in the past 19 years, i have been fooling around.. nothing makes any sense... eating, sleeping, playing, lazing.. i'm not going to do this for my future...

but, this is another 'say say onli'.. i dun change..

its been a month since the opening of school... i've not been paying attention to anything. lectures are juz another slacking session... although i'm not sleeping anymore, i not paying attention.. its not a BGR problem (since i dun have 1) neither is it a family problem.. then, wat's my problem? i'm really losing interest in my studies, in everything..

maybe.. as you get older, you realise so quickly how these moments pass. you appreciate everything in life more... opportunities become fewer, so they become more special.

maybe..

Different Worlds

2004-12-05T08:59:00.000-08:00

My body's aching from the game yesterday.. damn.. din exercise for a long time le.. slept at 4+ tis morning.. woke up at 12... mum's saying tat she wants to check out the condo at marina bay. 'The Sail @ Marina Bay'..

well.. father drove there.. viewed the show rooms. its not big.. but it gives u the idea of urban living.. the kitchen, bedroom, dining room all together in a 800++ sq ft space... the interior designers have done a great job by making it looks spacious.. white n a light shade of brown is used for the theme of the apartment..

from wat the Debenham Tie Leung's sales manager said, most of the apartments were taken up.. the most soughted ones are those at level 17 - 19, facing the sea, esplanade.. it cost bout a million for a unit... there's a difference of 200,000 if u are getting one, facing the city.. A million, 1,000,000 for a unit.. n from wat i heard, ppl are investing on tis project.. they are buying levels by levels. 9 unit each level = 9 million... rich sia.. the penthouse are all taken up too.. when can i earn tat money.. different worlds

i'm asking myself.. y should i work.. if i have a million, i could do some investment, like the apartment i viewed today... buy 1, wait for 5 years (for it to build).. then i can rent it out or sell it.. the price is sure to rise by tat time... i dun wan to explain how it will rise.. no $.. damn otherwise i'd buy, at least a unit.. need to work for the $... T.T

Tired...

2004-12-04T05:09:00.000-08:00

Alexander

Cast: Alexander the Great, a movie being made by Oliver Stone, starring Colin Farrell as Alexander, Sir Anthony Hopkins as Ptolemy, Angelina Jolie as Alexander's mother, Olympias, Val Kilmer as King Philip II, Jared Leto as Alexander's best friend, Hephaestion, Rosario Dawson as Alexander's wife, Roxane and Jonathan Rhys-Meyers as Cassander.

A Brief Overview of Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great, one of the greatest military intellects in history, conquered much of was what was then the civilised world. Taught by his tutor Aristotle to believe that the Greeks were the most advanced people in the world, Alexander created a huge empire, encompassing Macedonia, Egypt, Syria, Persia and Asia Minor.
Alexander the Great was born in 356BC in Pella the ancient capital of Macedonia. Alexander was the son of Philip II, king of Macedonia, and Olympias a princess of Epirus.

Alexander had a very close relationship to his mother Olympias and this may have affected his future relationships with women. Although Alexander did marry and have a son, it is believed that Alexander also a relationships with his closest male friend Hephaestion. This relationship was a source of intense jealousy to his mother Olympias. Alexander married his first wife, Roxane in 327. She was a princess of Sogdania (now Uzbekistan). When Alexander died in On June 11 323 she was pregnant. Alexander also had a second wife, Statira.

Alexander was a military genius and greatly admired by his troops for his leadership and courage. Alexander proudly led his troops into battle on his mighty horse Bucephalus. On conquering Egypt he was declared a Pharaoh and a god. The Egyptians hailed him as their liberator and he was crowned with the traditional double crown of the pharaohs of Egypt. He was given the salutation of '"a son of Amon"

Two cities founded by Alexander were Alexandria in Egypt and Bucephala in India.

The movie revolves around the life of alexander. (he's a gay-my opinion)

Malaysia....

2004-11-28T05:47:00.000-08:00

juz came back frm my 14 hour trip to malaysia, desaru, organised by my aunt, 2 mths ago.. it cost S$50/person..

reached golden mile at 6 in the morning, settle everything n left for malaysia at 8. visited a temple n had tis 'lobster' lunch, which is provided in the trip. well.. we HAD lobsters.. but, they were deep fried... tis gave me the impression tat the whole big tank of lobsters was juz for show.. they deep fried the dead ones each day n serve to the customers..

went to an ostrich farm after lunch... took some pics (i'll post them up).. the little ostriches a so KAWAII.. u can't juz use cute to describe...

Had lots of fruits at tis farm... they grow them with the help of bees which carries the pollen frm trees to trees, flower to flower..

Fact: dun think tat all bees are very 'qing lao'.. its onli the female ones.. male bees are lazy.. they juz wait to be fed.. but, they pay a price for not working; they die after mating once.

went over to Giant, johor, to shop... din get anything.. but, i cracked my mind, thinking of how to bring a snake back to singapore.. a whip snake was selling at RM$120 n a python was priced at RM$300..

went back after tat.... not that boring la..

no subject...

ok la.. not tat bad.. but, not tat good.. i'm not preparing to see a C in my last semester of sch.. must start studying le.. no more pool, no more billard.

went to watch 'The Incredibles' with Brian (18) n Jia Yan (9) tis afternoon.. first time bringing a pri 3 kid to the movies.. the animation wasn't bad.. story's ok

The Incredibles

Flash-forward 15 years to the suburbs, where the married superheroes live with three children. One is just a baby, and the older two, hyper-speed Dash and vanishing Violet, are forbidden from using their special powers in public. So are their parents. Mr. Incredible stopped a speeding train from crashing, and for his troubles got slapped with injury claims from survivors. A flood of similar lawsuits led to the banishment of superheroes, forcing these fantastic four into a kind of Witness Protection Program and try to blend in.

Taiwan

2004-11-15T07:21:00.000-08:00

well.. i shall not elaborate my taiwan trip, since there's nothing much to talk about, except for the different 'flavours' of wines, beer, whiskey n sake.. drank alot during the trip.. u can see the story of the trip in my sis's blog.. i'd be posting some pics up.. (when i noe how)

attended 2 seminars on business managment. lobster n sashimi are on the table, no matter lunch or dinner... completed 'The Da Vinci's Code' by Dan Brown. a very good book. i think i'd be talking about some of the pictures drawn by Leonardo da Vinci.. found them quite interesting as they are related to 'The Priorty of Sion'.. i'd be blogging bout them some time later..

drinks like juice, whiskey n beer are a everyday thing.. u can't complete your meal without a sip of alcohol

Coffee: How much is too much?

2004-10-31T21:49:00.000-08:00

If you're among the roughly 160 million Americans who drink coffee, you've probably followed news reports that implied the brew could damage your health--particularly since it contains caffeine, a potent, potentially habit-forming stimulant. Over the past few decades, coffee has been linked to an array of possible health risks, ranging from stroke and miscarriage to high cholesterol and even cancer.

But now the jury is pretty much in, and for most people, the news is good: Consuming two or three cups of coffee a day does no harm; it boosts mood, alertness, and physical performance; and it may even help prevent certain diseases. However, the news isn't bracing for everyone: Heavy coffee drinkers, pregnant women, and possibly people with heartburn, breast lumps, or anxiety disorders may benefit from cutting back on the brew.

The idea that coffee is bad for your heart pops up periodically--and seems to have a certain logic. Over a decade ago, several epidemiologic studies found that heavy coffee drinkers had higher blood-cholesterol levels than nondrinkers. Then lab tests, mainly from Europe, found that regularly drinking very strong coffee could sharply increase volunteers' cholesterol levels. Researchers even isolated a fatlike chemical in coffee, cafestol, that was clearly responsible for the rise. (Cafestol shows up in coffee whether or not it's decaffeinated.)

-taken from www.consumerreports.org

I'm trying to refrain frm coffee nowadays.. y?.. cause i had a little too much during the exams (5 cups/day)

the paper was easy.. BUT, i forgot the unit for the velocity of a satellite.. Km/s or Km/h.. in the end, i left it as Km/s.. therefore, 1 period of my satellite was 0.02hours. the velocity was 498Km/s.. wat a satellite.. imagine.. 1.2 min to travel arnd earth.. -_-"'

went to a movie after tat.. 'Cellular' Director: David Ellis

Premise: A young man receives a call on his cellular phone from a woman who says she's been kidnapped and thinks she's going to be killed soon, along with her husband and son who the kidnappers have gone after next. The catch? She doesn't know where she is... and his cell phone battery might go dead soon.

ManU 2 Arsenal 0

2004-10-25T16:56:00.000-07:00

Angry Arsenal stormed out of Old Trafford fuming with referee Mike Riley after Ruud van Nistelrooy (73th min, penalty) and Wayne Rooney (90) combined to shatter their 49-game unbeaten record after the
2-0
defeat at Manchester United.

"Highlights":

Jens Lehmann( Arsenal's No.1) had the team's physio and medic on the field to hand him his boots and watch while he changed into them. his team was about to take a free kick at the other end of the field.. -_-"'

Manchester United chief executive David Gill refused to comment on reports that Sir Alex Ferguson had soup and sandwiches thrown at him following the bitter 2-0 win over Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday that ended the Gunners 49-match unbeaten league run.

LOST 20 in this game
