disorientated.

2009-08-20T23:58:00.002+08:00

CA2 is over.... but i don't feel so happy. lol.

Anyways, I've just realised how much of a perfectionist I am. I set waay high expectations for myself in everything, even VERY insignificant stuff. Then when I don't reach my expectations, I sulk/emo/get frustrated/lash out at people. (like what I said to FN today) But then again, I lack the will to improve and change. So I keep blaming myself for not being good enough... when there's a better solution to all this.

Sighs.

It's a vicious cycle. And I'm not gonna sit in it forever.

neglect.

2009-08-08T21:40:00.003+08:00

Hahas... realised that I haven't blogged for AGES. ;p

Let's see... so what's going on in my life?

CA2 in 2 weeks, and piano exam immediately after. Which means I have to chiong my maths, my largely forgotten SBQ and SEQ stuff and chiong piano at the same time. But come to think of it, it's not THAT bad actually...

And I've been hooked onto Bleach quite badly. Grr. D:

"What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"

"Real isn't about how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."

-- The Velveteen Rabbit, Margery Williams

I didn't know a conversation between 2 stuffed toys could be so fascinating. Wow. =D

pathetic shadows of former selves.

"Dutchman, you're a ghost of your former self!"

--Spongebob Squarepants.

What happened?

Seriously, what's got into you?

You always hit the mark, but then again no one wants to be you.

You whine and bitch about some stupid incident that happened months ago. Seriously, just shuddup and get over it. I bet the person involved in the incident forgot about it already...

Are you even a person?

Or maybe.... a ghost?

2009-07-09T15:53:00.002+08:00

2.4 trial run todayyy!

My timing was 12 min liddat... so my new target is to reach 11 and beat renda! Do you think it's achievable in 1 week? :D

empty.

2009-07-06T19:01:00.000+08:00

long weekends aren't as cracked up as they're supposed to be.

sighs.

singing bowls.

2009-07-04T21:10:00.002+08:00

LONG WEEKEND! w00ts! =D

Anyways, since I have totally nothing to blog about... let's talk about what happened on friday...

History lesson with mr khoo, since daryl tan didn't come.
His singing bowl is freaking cool lol! =D
And his fake ESP video... http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/videohub/esptest.shtml

And OMG, i'm gonna be busy with alot of stuff nex week... mainly becoz of the speech day rehearsals. Sian leh, everytime there's some big event, speech day just has to come up and force me to NOT go for it. Last year it was FOP. This year it's Light the Way. Hopefully I can still go for it with my cell... D:

And I had a werid dream last night. Dreamed that I fell off the bed, and a rat bit me on my toe... and I was having rabies or something... LOL. xD

slacker.

2009-06-28T16:02:00.004+08:00

ahhh ,back to school again...

Lemme see what I did throughout these june holidays...

1. Play comp.
2. Watch night in the museum with tay.
3. Do hw.
4. Chiong maths.

Quite a pitiful list, right?

OPW project is DEFINITELY SCREWED UP. You know why? Because my VERY RESPONSIBLE group leader, the one who was clambering to be in the same group with me, DIDN'T DO A SINGLE BLOODY THING. Even if you have tuition every other day, even if you're busy with ????, you CCA-less slacker, atleast you could've bothered to organise some discussion or something?

And becoz of him, I had to become de facto leader again... and try to organise some discussion on MSN. But becoz my freaking group is full of freaking slackers and people who otherwise don't care, our june holiday brocuhre assignment is still undone. Nothing at all. Zilch. Nada. mei you.

D:

Now you know why I'm so depressed during OPW lesson. After all, I'm paired up with a facebook-surfing good for nothing slacker.

Argh.

Frustrating.

i try not to point fingers and blame people... but yeah, you deserve it.

What hansel said was correct.

the paper trail.

(added on at 8.02pm)

Here's a vid that my cell ldr sent me... WATCH IT. IT'S FREAKING TOUCHING... =D

--------------------------------------

This is exactly what happens when renjie becomes fed-up of seeing his GIGANTIC BLACK FILE grow in gigantic-ness every day…. and this is also what happens when you have half a year of unfiled work on the dining table… =D

Tampines in the rain.

Anyways, I’m using Windows Live Writer to post this… WLW is WAAY more convenient that the blogger post editor… =D

And it looks like we only have 2 days of freedom left! AHHHHHH!

the week.

2009-06-20T19:22:00.005+08:00

It's time to dEMOnise myself.... =DD

Let's see what happened over the past week.

NON-RESIDENTIAL scout camp from tuesday to thursday... in other words, it's like 3 back-to-back scout meetings and we get to go home every evening... ALL BECOZ OF THE STOOPID SWINE FLUU! D:

So anyways, now I shall attempt to blog about the camp.

The following photos basically sum up what we did on day 1...

Yep, backwoodsman cooking for sec 2s, outdoor cooking for sec 1s. The main difference is that the sec 1s get to cook ROTI PRATA and alll sort of canned food in mess tins... we have the PRIVELEDGE of cooking RAW chicken, RAW fish... yepp, do everything yourself. And we already did this last year... D:

Let's just say that in the end, all our fishes became sashimi, all our chicken was raw... bread was burnt.. .lol. It's harder than in those movies, where they just sit over the fire and wait for the chicken to cook! LOL. xD

Had pioneering and cooking competition on day 2. Cooking comm. was quite funn.... just that my patrol's "dessert" was rated last out of 4 patrols. You know why? Because Fabian went to cook omelette with fishcake (aka imitation carrot cake), instead of a proper dessert. But nevertheless, our FRIED FISH WAS OWNNAAAGE! =D

Day 3 was like the "fun" day. Beach games at east coast, patrol lunch at parkway, then BOWLING at Marine Bowl. And my bowling score was a DISASTER. Highest was 62, lowest 50+. Kinda lousy compared to class outing.... D:

After that, we had cycling to CHANGI VILLAGE. Unfortunately, becoz of L.E.T, we couldn't have night cycling like last year... D: But it was still quite funn, even though I didn't have enough time to eat my fav. char kway teow at changi village, becoz of some stoopid bicycle chain problem...

And I just realsied that EAST COAST PARK IS TOOO FREAKING BIGG! When we got back to East Coast Park on our return journey, we had to cycle from Area H to the bike shop in Area C... and we took nearly an hour to get there. =.= It's very irritating...like you're there but not quite there, if you get what i mean. =D

And looks like we have one more week of freedom! NOOO!

One final thought: Alot of people like to play politics in scouts. Not trying to sabo anyone larh, this is just my observation. :D

it's me/i'm not okay.

2009-06-18T23:04:00.005+08:00

So you think you know me?

Let's examine what's behind the intricate mask known as Renjie...

A cowardly, forgetful, idiotic, control freak. An emo-ish guy who scolds people when it's actually his fault. An unreasonable, rude, retarded person. Someone who pretends to like someone... but acutally shuns away from him. Someone who meets certain peopel with open arms... but rejects others without giving a chance. Someone who is srewing up all his schoolwork, but everything APPEARS to be okay in front of certain people. Someone who is not okay. Someone who needs 'a little more love than a ltitle bit'. Someone who appears to be 'holier than thou', but actually isn't. Someone who isn't welcome to change. Someone who is jealous, envious of what the people around him have, the kind of personality they have. Someone who craves for attention and recognition. Someone who doesn't dare to open his mouth when he sees something wrong. Someone who is NATO (No Action Talk Only), someone who is 'enthu but can't do anything.' Someone who wears numerous masks to cover who he really is.

So you think you know me? Think again.

What makes me me?

What's so good about me? Why do you see me so highly? Why am I always the average joe?

T.T

personality/ random rants.

2009-06-14T16:50:00.003+08:00

291.

According to iPersonic, I'm introverted, practical, logical, planning, tradition-conscious, organised, persistent, objective...

According to myPersonality, I'm an ISFP, although my friends see me as an ESTJ....

According to my DISC profile, I'm a high I and S, with C just trailing 1 point behind....

According to...

Yeah, you get my drift.

---------------------

Personality tests are supposed to help you understand yourself better, right?

But what happeens when we get "trapped" by them? When, whether consciously or not, we start to "fit into" the results of a certain personality test, when the results MAY NOT be that true?

Or what happens when you use personality tests to justify your behaviour? "Ohh, my DISC profile says I'm a high S and C... so I'm emo-ish...."

---------------------

After doing so many personality tests, after enduring a 2 day mind-bashingly boring talk about my personality last year... Do you think I understand myself better?

Who am I? Who are we?

No amount of personality tests can help you answer that question.

i don't think so.

FACT- A Fact Of Life

I forgot about the time that there was somebody in my past,
I feel time has passed so quickly since I took the photograph.
Thanks for the memory that doesn't fade in my heart.
Look at us smiling in the photograph, you can see the secrets behind the fake smiles.
Thanks for the memory that doesn't fade in my heart.

The past was destroyed by you, I'm not going to forget our truth was shadowed in the darkness of war.

The past was destroyed by you, I'm not going to forget our truth was shadowed in the darkness of war. (x2)

The moment when it was destroyed is burned into history.
We can't rewind like a video.
Misleading future not required.
Only the weak among you will be sacrificed.
A false history is not necessary.
No matter what, isn't even a harsh future better than a history made by somebody else?

Don't you think so? (x8)

OMG I thought that song was japanese! =.=

a week of memories.

2009-06-06T17:45:00.007+08:00

let's see what happened over the past week.

Campfire at gongshang on tuesday night... yours truly attended as an alumni. Kinda fun to sit among those little kiddos there... and weirdly, alot of my "juniors" still remember me. I'm just toooo unforgettable! =D

I got a new bag from Zinc on thursday... it was actually my bdae present. It's kinda cool and WAAY bigger than my current bag. Of course, I'm not so hao lian to take picture of it and show off to the whole world... but yeah, you'll prolly see it in a couple of weeks. xD

Scout meeting today was pretty "normal", nothing much to talk about. That doesn't mean it was boring, however. =D

And the rest of my week was spent facebooking, playing sims, doing my hw... yeah, life is boring. And weirdly, I'm most emo-ish during the holidays... particularly the long long long break in december.

(added on 9th june)

Lols... forgot that I wayched Night in the Museum 2 with nicholas on wednesday. =.=

I agree that it wasn't as funny as the 1st movie... but I feel that the plot is like waaay "bigger", more exciting. lols.

"I have come BAAACK to life!" -Kamurah.

And yes, I've deleted the post. I'm so pathetic.
--------------------------------

Some pictures of my primary school...

Gongshang FAMILY!? OMGGG. xD

Hall + canteen.

Heritage gallery.

I wonder why I didn't take any pictures of the campfire... maybe becoz there was no FIRE? but anyways, in memories we are rich. (wad mrs lim always likes to say... =.=)

---------------------------
1 and 1/2 years of memories vs. 6 years of memories.

I definitely prefer the 1 and 1/2.

But the 6 years were still great..... :)

class ouuuuting.

2009-05-30T13:30:00.004+08:00

Class outing was funnnnn.

Anyways, we went bowling in Kallang Leisure Park... like our very 1st class outing liddat. lols. But bowoing was funn.... scored 85 in my 2nd game, one of my highest so far. xD

Then after bowling, some of us went to catch Terminator: Salvation. It was ok, but not that good or suspenseful. If I didn't plug my ears during the movie, bet the sound of John Conner running around and shooting random stuff would have deafened me. -.-

Anyways, here's some of my observations after watching the terminator movie:

You know you're in an action movie when...
1. You get slammed into solid metal walls by gigantic robots but feel no pain.
2. Your superior is ALWAYS a whiny, old man who you ALWAYS disagree with.
3. After entering your enemy's base, supposedly teeming with robots, you only see a couple of them.
4. Even though your enemny's base is supposedly the most high-tech place on Earth, they never bothered to install CCTV cameras. You can run around, hide behind walls, release prisonors without anyone finding you.
5. Your enemies ambush you in their base, but only bothered to send out 1 gigantic robot to destory you. (See no. 3)

oh yarh, photos are on fb; GO FIND THEM YOURSELF. =D
--------------------------------------------

I hate to blog about exam results... but yeah, this is an exception.

Kinda disappointed with my results, not because of my level position (which is pretty sucky-ish), not because of my class position... but because I didn't do my best.

IMHO, in the end it really doesn't matter what kind of results you get. What's most important is that you gave it your best shot, gave it all you got. This is something that some parents should seriously think about. (no sarcasm intended.)

You may argue that my results are already quite good, "you did better than me".... but it ain't helping. I'm not gonna buy into the 'totem pole' effect, where everyone compares themselves to someone worse than them. D:

Nil sine labore.
We felt but did not grasp
That truth, until the years.
The changing age confirmed severely:
Nothing without labour,
Nothing
is for free

How very true.

happy bdae...

2009-05-28T21:42:00.004+08:00

I'll be shameless.

HAPPY BDAE TO MYSELFFF!!! YEAAAHHH!

And is it just me, or is there alot of stuff happening on 29th May as well? LMAO. xD

-----------------------
Don't read the next part if you dun wanna get depressed/emu.

"Don't wash dirty linen in the public..." but some things don't deserve to be kept a secret. D:

I'm trying to hide so much. So many facades, masks, multiple faces...

Sighs. Not gonna dwell on this any longer. Some things just don't deserve my attention.

-------------------------------

I just invented a new way of testing how popular you are!

Count the number of people wishing you happy bdae in facebook, ur blog, etc. Dvide by pie and add 1 for luck. Then divide in the SHIRO EQUATION, and you'll get something between 1-10.

Gonna try that out later... =D

photooo spammage.

2009-05-27T16:01:00.014+08:00

get ready for PHOTO SPAMMAAGE!

Even dogs do music! =.=

Muslim food. Does that mean that if I'm not a muslim, I can't eat the food? o.0 Or was all the food passed down from generation to generation solely by muslims? doubt it. -.-

1 of my neigbours was going over to thailand to give out food and clothes to the needy... some sort of volunteer work thingy... so i decided to clear out my closet to see what I can give. Here's what I found...

6 years of GSPS PE attire... o.0

P4 camp shirt front and back. Bet some ppl will be gushing with tears/ "memories flashing through their mind", if you wanna use chim english. xD

And OMG, I'm seriously fed up with blogger's post editor. Everytime I post an image, the image goes to the top of the page... then I have to drag it all the way down.... Another classic example of why google sucks.

Finally, my physics project video. Kudos to lum, justin and especially ANIRUDH for their WUNNERFUL acting. But seriously, we got 18/20... =D

---------------------------------------
(added on at 10.08pm)
you say I no peserverance.

you say I anyhow bang the ****

For goodness sake larh, after being 'invisible man' for the whole day, you suddenly coem and act macho and try to push your weight around. Think you big isit? You know what? I HATE YOU. GET LOST. YUO DON'T DESERVE TO BE IN MY LIFE.

And you dare say I no peserverance? Even the best marathon runner in the world will meet his times of frustration, when he's about to give up, when he just feels like the world has left him. He tried his best, but his best isn't good enough.

Then what do you do in this kind of situation? Shout and scream at the marathon runner, telling him he 'NO PESERVERANCE" arh? Demoralise him until he has no passion to pursue his dream isit??!

People who have peserverance KEEP TRYING. they are NOT SENSELESS ROBOTS. They have their moments of frustration too. You don't even see me as a human being right? You see me as a good-for-nothing, mindless, sensless PIGGG rite!?

And I TRIED. AGAIN AND AGAIN. AND I FAILED. I FELT FRUSTRATED AFTER ALLL MY EFFORTS. YOU DARE SAY I NO PERSERVERANCE!?

And you didn't see all this right? Beocz you were too busy playing 'invisible man'.... BECOZ YOU DUN GIVE A DAMN, DO YOU!?

And yeah right, i was banging the ****. As if i dare to bang your EXPENSIVE, BELOVED *****. And WTH CAN I BANG IT!? I WAS JUST PUTTING MY FREAKING HAND OVER THERE, YOU IDIOTTTTT!!

You hurt me.

Apologise. But I guess your over-shruken ego prevents you from udnerstanding the meaning of that word...

T.T

I HATE YOU.

Today was screwed. But because SOME PEOPLE who shouldn't be reading my blog are reading it, I won't tell you why...

Anyways, Jonas has just invented a new fone... the specs case phone! Gonna take a picture of it next time... =D

开心果.

2009-05-23T23:03:00.003+08:00

gonna keep blogging even though no 1 is tagging... D;

I keep seeing this advert on channel 8, about singtel's mio TV... basically, there's this little girl saying how mio TV has TRANSFORMED her family's lives and caused them GREAT HAPPINESS (Macbeth -.-)...

Even though the ad. is fictional, its very sickening that technology, the glare of the comuter screen, TV, has become our 开心果s... and the main purpose/reason to live for some.

I remember my optician saying that the children of 20/30 years ago played outdoor games... Games that we now shun away from. But through those games, they found true relaxation.

What about us? I dunno about you, but does 2hours of ________(fill in the blanks yourself) really relax you? or does it actually make you more tense? Why are we saying that comp. games are like our only outlet for relaxation when it actually isn't?

To those in VS, isn't this very similiar to the poem 'missing'?

"Like ghosts hunting for their souls... in the television box..."

We are really ghosts of our former self.

"pictures of you, pictures of me, reminds us all of what we could have been..."

-----------------------------------------

Another item on my holiday wishlist: Don't fb/blog/play comp. too much. Anyways, I don't want to hear shouts and screams from some very unreasonable people again... -.-

And I just realised that I could have used life in technicolor for my lit. mulitmedia project! D:

Finally, this an SOS from my tb...

TAG MORREEEE!! OR I KEEL U!!!!!!!!

--------------------------------------

Heartless- Kanye West

In the night I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told,
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?

How could you be so,
Cold as the winter wind when it breeze yo
Just remember that you talking to me yo
You need to watch the way you talking to me you know
I mean after all the things that we been through
I mean after all the things we got into
And yo I know of some things that you ain't told me
And yo I did some things but that's the old me
And now you wanna get me back
And you gon' show me
So you walk around like you don't know me
You got a new friend
Well I got homies
But in the end it's still so lonely

In the night I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told,
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?

How could you be so Dr. Evil
You're bringing out a side of me that I don't know
I decided we weren't gonna speak so why we up 3 a.m. on the phone
Why does she be so mad at me for, homie I don't know she's hot and cold
I won't stop, won't mess my groove up cause I already know how this thing goes,
You run and tell your friends that you're leavin' me
They say that they don't see what you see in me
You wait a couple months then you gon' see,
You'll never find nobody better than me

In the night I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told,
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?

Talkin', talkin', talkin', talk,
Baby lets just knock it off
They don't know what we been through
They don't know 'bout me and you
So I got something new to see
And you just gon' keep hatin' me
And we just gon' be enemies
I know you can't believe
I could just leave it wrong
and you can't make it right
Im gon' take off tonight
Into the night...

In the night I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told,
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless... oh
How could you be so heartless?

I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
I've been locked inside the house, while you hold the key.

逍遥叹。

2009-04-15T20:39:00.002+08:00

岁月难得沉默
秋风厌倦漂泊
夕阳赖着不走
挂在墙头
舍不得我
昔日伊人耳边话
已和潮声向东流
再回首
往事也随枫叶一片片落
爱已走到尽头
恨也放弃承诺
命运自认幽默
想法太多由不得我
壮志凌云几分酬
知己难逢几人留
再回首,
却闻笑传醉梦中

笑叹词穷
古痴今狂终成空
刀钝人乏
恩断义绝梦方破
路荒遗叹
饱览足迹没人懂
多年望眼欲穿过
红尘滚滚
我没看透
自嘲墨尽
千情万怨英杰愁
曲终人散
发花鬓白红颜殁
烛残未觉
与日争辉徒消瘦
当泪干血盈眶涌
白雪纷飞
都成空

A nice chinese song (IMHO). Was hooked to it in the past.

PS To somehow: REMEMBER THIS SONG????? XDDD

pulau ubin cycling.

2009-04-11T19:11:00.002+08:00

I bet I'm the first AS to talk about the pulau ubin cycling trip. This is my unofficial reflection.

Anyways, it was kinda fun.... fortunately it didnt rain alot like last year.

As I just said to xq, the trip brought out the worst and best in me.

I think that's something common in scout activities. It TRIES to push your boudaries, get you out into the real world, not the REEL world, and just gets you shaking with discomfort all over.

Lol. Anyways, pcitures will be coming when I'm hardworking enuf 2 go look for my phone cable. LEAVING THE BEST FOR THE LAST. MUAHAHAHAAHA!!! XDDDDD

-------------------------------------

Cell outing tomorrow.

ARGH. no time 2 go chiong hw. D:

pulau ubin cycling TOMORROW, cell outing on sunday. =DD

Can't waaaait!

--------------------------

I feel kinda disappointed with some people.

Some people who don't give others respect, but still dare to demand respect.

Some people who are too proud to even say 'sorry'.

Some people who are just drifiting apart.

But I'm also disappointed with myself.

emo.

Those who have a copy of today's New Paper, flip to page 22 and you'lll see 2 letters regarding IP, VJC and VS, written by 2 alumni.

Those letters really makes me realise the amount of "trouble" IP has caused.

And no, I am not going to IP. =DD

rant.

2009-03-31T23:09:00.003+08:00

Perfectionism, in psychology, is a belief that perfection can and should be attained. In its pathological form, perfectionism is a belief that work or output that is anything less than perfect is unacceptable.

Someone has told me before that I am a perfectionist. I guess that's very true.

The way I solo projects (well, maybe not so much these days...), feel so pissed when things don't go smoothly, the way I can't take a joke (I'm seriously starting to worry if I have Apserger's Syndrome...), the way I'm just waaaaaay to serious for anyone's liking... my high expectations... the list just goes on and on.

I guess it really would be fascinating to sit down 1 day with a physcologist and examien what caused this perfectionism, what other bad character traits do I have... etc.

But what will that achieve? Nothing.

-----------------------------------------------

6.20am in the morning. A packed bus 293, the latest "model" of buses which are wheelchair friendly, arrives at a bus stop in tampines.

People squeeze in, and unfortunately, the boy finds himself at the end of the "queue" of people entering the bus. He tries to get in, and in the end his bag gets caught in the door. The bus driver is giving him a pissed look.

The boy gets off the bus. He sees that everyone is literally crowding in the "standing area" of the bus. No one has the intiative or mental capability to step into the "sitting area" and stand there. there's a nice, empty looking space over there, as if taunting the boy for his inability to get on that frigging bus.

The boy feels pissed. With a 'WTH!@!??" he waits for the next bus to come, hoping that the people inside that bus will be cleverer this time.

MORAL OF THE STORY: THERE'S NO GIANT SEA MONSTER/ FLYING SPAGETTI MONSTER IN THE SITTING AREA. JUST MOVE IN ,FOR GODNESS SAKE!!!! D:

---------------------------------------

The boy is on a packed 31 bus, right after school. As expected, the bus is crowded with students from all schools around Marine Parade.

The bus driver suddenly shouts, "Please move in. Please have consideration for others."

Everyone grugindly moves in.

The bus driver is pissed, everyone's pissed, the boy feels freakingly embarrassed. Some people just need to go through an "Ettiquite in Buses" course.

'cause the hardest part of this is leaving you....

lazy.

2009-03-29T17:21:00.003+08:00

I am VERY lazy.

Anyways, I feel so sian. This week seems to be have been like shorterned alot, so I'm like scrambling to finish all the crazy project stuff, all the crazy things that keep coming my way. =D

And yesterday, I felt like a total idiot sitting in front of a DARKENED computer screen with no lights on at 8.30pm. It was earth hour! XD

(PS To nicholas: alot more ppl did eurf hour than you expected. ALOT more. =D)

Left with 30minutes before I meet my mum and en for dinner at simei.... so byebyes. =D

And I'M SERIOUSLY OVERUSING =D. GIVE ME A BETTER SMILEY 2 USEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGGHHH!

Applications for VIP have opened... and I'm not really interested. lol.

Maybe I was physco-ed by some ppl to not be interested in IP? Or is this really my own choice?

No You Girls- Franz Ferdinand

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette, then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won’t meet me
Meet me where your mind won’t kiss me

Lick your eyes and mine and then hit me
Hit me with your eyes so sweetly
Oh, you know you know you know that yes I love
I mean I’d love to get to know you

Do you never wonder?
No, no no no

You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
How you make a boy

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette, then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won’t meet me
Meet me where your eye won’t lick me
Lick your mind and mine so briefly
Oh you know, you know you’re so sweetly
Oh you know, you know that I know that I love you
I mean I, I mean I need to love

Do you never wonder?
No, no no no

You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
How you make a boy feel
How you make a boy

Sometimes I say stupid things
That I think
Well, I mean I
Sometimes I think the stupidest things
Because I never wonder
Oh how the girl feels
Oh how the girl feels

No you boys never care
Oh no you boys’ll never care
No you boys never care
How the girl feels
No you boys never care
You dirty boys’ll never care
No you boys never care
How the girl feels

Oh how the girl feels
Oh how the girl feels

CCA and dilemma.

2009-03-19T13:35:00.004+08:00

Went out with avester, daniel and suresh to prepare for the CCA hike tomorrow.

I went for the hike with xiuqi last year, and even though we screwed up badly i still enjoyed it. That's prolly 1 of the main reasons why i agreed to be the reserve for avester's hike.

And lols... we had a nice, long chat about IP and VS. It really seems like almost everyone has different, conflicting views about this issue. Some teachers are like... totally anti-IP, like a CERTAIN english teacher who refuses to do IP referral letters. lol.

Anyways, speaking of IP, I don't really know whether i shuld try for it. 1 part of me tells myself that I won't be able to make it due to my screwed up CA1 results (which might lead to even more screwed SA1 results), another part tells me to not betray VS for VJ.

And there's yet ANOTHER part of me which tells me to try it out.

Everyone has different views about this issue. Who should I listen to?

Or should I just follow my heart?

-----------------------------------------------------
(added on at 9.28pm)
Ohnos! Looks like Daniel has a bad headache... and yours truly has to go down to bishan MRT station tommorrow and take over him if he's not feeling well. -.-

And in case Daniel is really not well, I will be gone from fri. - sat. Byebye!

I should be feeling emo, feeling moody, but why am i like sooo EXCITED!? -.-

Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades... *

* The song I'm listening to now. Guess which song. XD

2009-03-18T22:14:00.002+08:00

Desolation Row -- My Chemical Romance

They’re selling postcards of the hanging
Well, they’re painting the passports brown
And the beauty parlor’s filled with sailors
The circus is in town
Oh now look here comes the blind commissioner
Well, they’ve got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker
The other’s in his pants

And the riot squad they’re restless
They need somewhere to go
As Lady and I look out tonight
From Desolation Row

Oh Cinderella, she seems so easy
“Well, it takes one to know one,” she smiles
And she puts her hands in her back pockets
Oh Bette Davis style
And now but here comes Romeo, moaning
“You Belong to Me I Believe”
And then someone says,”You’re in the wrong place, my friend
You better leave”

And then the only sound that’s left
After the ambulances go
Is Cinderella sweeping up
On Desolation Row

Yeah

Now at midnight all the agents
And superhuman crew
Go out and round up everyone
That knows more than they do (knows more than they do)
They’re gonna bring them to the factory
Where the heart-attack machine
Is strapped across their shoulders
And then the kerosene

Is brought down from the castles
By insurance men who go
Check to see that no one is escaping
To Desolation Row

'Cause right now I can’t read too good
Don’t send me no letters no
Not unless you’re gonna mail them
From Desolation Row

(from the Watchmen Soundtrack)

One of the few songs which fascinate and disturb me at the same time. XD

And if you are very bo liao, go read this 'analysis' of Desolation Row...

jobweek.

2009-03-15T23:53:00.003+08:00

Everyone knows what is jobweek right? It's a week when all scouts knock on doors and distrub ppl by saying things like "do you have a job (what kind of job? marketing executive? CEO of a company?) for me to do?" and then "would you mind making a small CONTRIBUTION (*cough*do*cough*n*cough*ation*cough*) to the scouting community?" etc.

But jokes aside, jobweek isn't that bad as i made it out to be. For some unknown reason, I find walking around a land of terrace houses and HDB flats to be 'fun'. I find completing a job to be quite satisfying. I find receving money from the job to be rewarding, regardless of the amount.

Looks like the goold ole 'enthu about scouts' side of me is still there. Hopefully, it will continue be there for the next 2 years... or even more??? =D

Anyways, sherman and I have discovered our 'secret spot'. Not telling you where, ofcourse.

------------------------------------

It's gonna be a long and tiring day ~~TOMORROW~~ TODAY. Wish me all the best and NIL SINE LABORE! =D

renjies don't do math.

2009-03-11T19:24:00.003+08:00

sighs... It sucks to be sucky in maths. -.-

Anyways, it's time to apologise for the things that I've done, for the things that I've said. It's time for a change...

I realised that 'change' has been sensationalised alot. It's like the buzzword of the day. People want change, they want to change this, change that, change alot of things.

Sometimes they WANT to change but they DON'T change.

This reminds me of myself. D:

--------------------------------

Off to have dinner and complete my huge pile of maths hw. Wish me luck. AND TAG MORE. XD

2009-03-08T20:04:00.003+08:00

Long overdue video of shiro climbing down the stairs.

LOL. XD

-------------------------------------------------

Investiture night was awesome.

Our level item rawked. Our dance rawked. And most importantly, our check yes juliet RAWKED EVEN MORE!!!

It also made me ponder about what makes a good leader.

Is a good leader the person who is the tallest? Is a good leader the person who is the most charamismatic? is a good leader someone who everyone respects?

I shuld think about that. =D

------------------------------------------------

I realised how beautiful VS's campus is.

It's like... we often take for granted things like the school hall, the parade square, ecopond, things we see everyday.

But when we have a closer look at these ordinary yet not ordinary things, we realise how beautiful they can be.

And call me emo if you want. XD

------------------------------------------

Off to my work. bye for now. =D

2009-03-03T18:35:00.005+08:00

This is gonna be a short post, becoz I have an OVERDUE D&T project waiting for mi... D:

Your Mood is a 3

You're feeling rather down right now, but you're doing your best to get through it.

How Does Your Mood Rate?

I'm feeling pissed right now.

Pissed with my piano teacher, pissed with my project group members, pleased with my OVERDUE project... pissed that I have to 'solo' everything... but atleast there are others in the same situation as me.

I realised that it's hard to invoke passion in things you're not passionate in. But those thigns are always creepign up on you. You have to face them, whether you like it or not.

Time for me to face the ~~music~~ squawky sound of francis's 'distorted guitar'. =D

Renjie is currently feeling VERY contended and satisfied.... so happy that he has decided to trry* to post more regularly in the future.

Anyways, I just came back from Shuai Chen's hosue... it's kinda stupid that I had to rush all the wayy there immediately after scout meeting. lols. But anyways, the d&t project is basically 搞定了* . XD

Investiture ceremony for the sec 1s next week... and all the sec 2s are gonna perform check yes juliet by we the kings. Sounds quite fun! (and we shuld dedicate the song to the sec 1s =D)

And I feel inspired to make a blogskin. =D
--------------------------------------------

* Try doesn't mean I will do it. =D

* I shall officially try (refer to previous note) to increase the no. of china words in my blog... 'cause thats the few things I OWN xq in! XD

-----------------------------------------
(added on at 12.33am)

yes... at this insane time, I'm posting in my blog. =D

Anyways, I've been asking myself: Why do I keep putting uneccesary burdens on myself?

I mean, look at me. I'm the well known solo-ist, chiongster in PW. I sometimes am bearing the entire burden of the group. I sometimes don't trust the people in my group. I just... don't trust people enough.

Now, all thanks to my distrust and 'chiongster' nature, I have a LOADS of work to do. D:

For Pete's sake, can't you all just give me a break?

And can you start to have more motivation and PLAN things yourself, instead of me spoon-feeding you, going around the class to try to accomodate all your nicely, packed schedules, trying to NICELY tell you to do this and that?

STOP ACTING LIKE A 3 YEAR OLD, FOR GOODNESS SAKE. GROW UP.

Just lemme slack ONCE. Just this once. Just lemme be irresponsible. Just lemme pig out. Just... STOP LEAVING ALL THE BURDENS ON MY SHOULDERS.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Was VS a wrong choice for me?

Should I have rewound time and wrote AHS as my 1st choice in the PSLE school posting thingy?

These are questions worth considering. D:

untitled.

2009-02-27T18:11:00.002+08:00

After about a week of abensce, renjie is back! =D

So, CA week ahs come to an end. I screwed up some of my papers. -.-

Anyways, I'm thinking of changing blogskins soon... to something more SIMPLE and more UNIQUE... something that will make people go, "OMG!" xD

And lols... weird popups are showing up. Better go do a virus scan after this.

Today VS was invaded by a bunch of friendly, wonderful christmas trees! And yours truly is one of them!

But seriously, today is like.. founder's day for scouts. It's actually 22 Feb, but since it's a saturday, we're celebrating in advanced.

So nothing much happened today, just that I felt like an idiot in uniform sometimes... and for goodness sake, STOP ASKING ME WHAT IS MY RANK. THERE ARE NO RANKS IN SCOUTS. OKAY????? =DD

slacker.

2009-02-19T23:15:00.002+08:00

I have alwasy tried not to put the label 'slacker' on anyone.

For example, Renda. I remember during OPW Group Selection, Hansel was like, "OMG RENDA! HE'S SUCH A SLACKER..."

Actually, he isn't. I remember an instance when I asked him to give me a piece of work for D&T by that night. And guess what? he imemdiately, agreed, and it apppeared in my email early that night. And even better still, his work was very well-done. I've worked with Renda for quite a number of projects; for all of them, he has convinced me that he is DEFINITELY not a slacker and is one of the most hardworking ppl around. =D

Another example: Lucas.

In the retardedly 'counting traffic' stupid maths project the previous year, I remember calling him to tell him to switch roles with me.

I expected him to come up with aboslutely nothing, but he did his job. =DDDD

I don't think that Renda, Lucas and the other so-called 'slackers' that I worked with are just being non-slack just because they are in my group. THEY WERE NEVER SLACKERS TO BEGIN WITH. So stop your crap about 'Oh, he's such a slacker!'. What gives you the right to judge people like that??

-----------------------------------

Look through my previous groupings for project work and you'd find that I have never worked with Jeremy, Hansel, all the other 'elite', supposedly non-slack people. (except for once, of course.)

It's like... what's the fun of it all if I work with them??? =DD

----------------------------------

This opens another question: Do people see ME as a slacker?

---------------------------------

Although I try not to put the slacker label on anyone, I feel that some people may really be slackers.

Do you know what a de facto leader is? Someone who's not officially the leader but unofficially is?

Sometimes I have to play de facto leader and be the stoopid chiong-ster who solos out all the work while everyone is relaxing. Can't be helped, when the leader of a certain online project you are doing seems to be a slacker himself. D:

--------------------------------

Tomorrow I shall be dressed as a un-decorated christmas tree.

In fact, there will be over 40+ christmas trees in VS. Look out for them. XD

I'm not as good as everyone thinks.

Stop giving me all the crap about being a 'a1/a2 scholar' or whatever.

STOP calling me to ask me how to solve all your crappy problems or all your crappy thingies.

JUST STOP ALL THIS.

I wanna be normal again.

wasting time.

2009-02-14T22:10:00.004+08:00

What will you do if you only have 3 seconds left to live?

Many of us will try to complete our final wishes or something liddat, right?

It's funny how many a times, we only appreciate things when they come to an end.

And it's funny when life nears its end, you realise how much time you wasted.

------------------------------------------

Every second that has passed brings you 1 second closer to your death.

Depressing thought, right? but still, don't fear death. fear what comes after it. XD

------------------------------------------

10.26pm.

What a depressing, emo time.

ANOTHER rant.

2009-02-11T19:51:00.002+08:00

i just realised that alot of ppl like to send project stuff in weird file formats.

For example, wps. (some crap Microsoft Works thingy that almost no one has)

Seriously, isit THAT hard to just use Microsoft Word for every document involving typing and use MS Powerpoint for everything that involves presentations?

And isit that hard to convert 2007 files into earlier file formats, for your poor classmates who can't afford to pay 150+ for some crappy Office 2007 client??? D:

And I haven't mentioned about those people who like to use powerpoint sooo much, that they use it all the time, when MS Word would have been waaaaay easier for both of us.

Sighs.

facebook.

2009-02-10T18:38:00.004+08:00

Looks like more people are demanding me to create a facebook.

I might consider creating one when 5 ppl invite me. =D

--------------------------------------------------

Sometimes you get the feeling that everything is screwed beyond redemption, right?

---------------------------------------------------

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, YULIAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!

I'm too busy to post the pictures D:

15 random facts.

2009-02-06T22:05:00.002+08:00

Quite some time ago, i posted 5 random facts about me... (go into my archives to look for it; I'm too lazy to dig it out =D)

So now I'm doing FIFTEEN random facts. Yes. 1 5. fifteen. Isn't that such a WONDERFUL, IMPRESSIVE number!? XD

here goes:

1. I don't have a favourite food.

2. I haven't played an MMPORG... for AGES.

3. I don't find Dango THAT cute.

4. Me on MSN is very different from me in real life.

5. my personality:

6. In my opinion, one of the creepiest place in Singapore is... DEFU LANE.

7. I make a HORRIBLE counseler. =D

8. Sings It Sucks To Be Me when I'm bored. xD

9. In any MMPORG, I don't like being a ranged character. Dunno why.

10. Must learn how to show more compassion.

11. I should be doing my D&T homework.

12. Liked the colour blue when I was younger, but now i prefer a combination of black and white.

13. Makes a horrible interior designer. (Sims 2 ;p)

14. I'm a horrible teacher. XD

15. Still trying to find my niche....

There you go! 15 facts for you! =D

------------------------------------------------

Alot of things happened in the past few days, and some of them are quite memorable.

Couple of days ago, we had to R&A Hey Jude by The Beatles. Don't ask me what oldies have to do with comprehension techniques... ask Maran. XD

So let it out and let it in,
hey jude, begin,
Youre waiting for someone to perform with.
And dont you know that its just you,
hey jude, you'll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.

Hey Jude is overall a nice song.. apart from the above verse. If you can't catch the "hidden meaning" (contributed by SOME people *glares at someone called D*), then good for you.

But overall Hey jude is quite a nice song. As nicholas said earlier, it really is quite catchy.

HA. XD

the wages of busyness.

2009-02-04T16:38:00.002+08:00

Lols... kenna slammed by a mountain of projects and other stuff for these past few days, so I haven't been able to update for awhile. I wonder how nicholas manages to update his blog everyday -.-

And thx alot for all the people who kept spamming my tb with advice. Really helped me alot. XD

-------------------------------------------------------------
I read through the things that I posted previously... and i have to admit, alot of things I said were in the 'heat of the moment'.

However, it's true that sometimes I do feel lonely, I do feel left out by the rest.

It's also true that sometimes I feel hated by everyone in class.

But it's also true that now I know that wad I have said about God is all wrong and false. Very false. =D

------------------------------------------------------------

Wanted to type about my school day here ,but i guess im too busy (and lazy). Bye for now, peeps. =D

the boy.

2009-01-31T22:41:00.004+08:00

Sitting comfortably? Let's begin.

Once upon a time there was a boy. He got through primary school pretty well, and although he wasn't a top student or mr popularity, he did well enough in his PSLE to get into a pretty good secondary school.

So he met his class on the first day of secondary school, then went for an orientation camp on the next. So, the class 'bonded', and everyone knew each other fairly well.

The trouble began one day when the boy didn't seem to fit in with the other people in the class. It may be his personality, his character, his good results. The boy felt comfused, angry and bitter, sometimes all at the same time. Sometimes he felt alone. Sometimes he felt like he came to the wrong school, he came to the wrong class, he should have went to another secondary school.

He got involved in the 'class commitee', landing himself in a pretty major supporting role, and had to play 2nd fiddle to someone while that person seemingly took all the credit. In the eyes of the teacher, he was a 'good boy', someone who had initiative; someone who was good at many things and aspects, but stil la 2nd fiddle. But what about his classmates, the people he sees everyday?

They all hated him.

He found that life was so unfair, that some people are more talented than others, that he didn't have any supposedly 'best' friends, only having the occasional MSN contact. He felt shunned. Lonely. he felt like he was soo different from the rest. He was going aginst the 'crowd' in many aspects, and that was not a good thing in that situation.

The boy survived through 1 year, and the next year was even more horrible. Things started complicating itself. He saw that the characters of the people in class are worlds apart from his. He felt stressed. He felt angry. He felt lost, and still unfound.

The boy knew that 'God was there for him', but he neeeded something, someone more tangible. he knew God loved him, but he just felt it hard to experience it. He needed to not feel left out all the time. He needed to destroy his old personality, and bring out a totally brand new one. He needed to totally reinvent himself. He needed a change, of monstrous, gigantic proportions which no one could ever do or ever fix. He needed someone to be 'high chemistry' with him, isntead of the usual 'bad chemistry' that he has with everyone. He needed to start having fun when everyone is, and not have fun when everyone isn't. He needed to get into the flow. He needs... EVERYTHING.

2 years of the boy's life summarised in under 500 words. Wow.

zuoye.

2009-01-30T17:52:00.003+08:00

Ever felt so pissed, stressed, whatever that you just have to run away from the situation? Ever said to yourself, "ARGH. Piss all this crap off. I'm gonna take a break."?

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm doing now. XD

---------------------------------------------------------

It sucks to redo work you've done before.

I have to redo exercises 1-3 of my 作业 becoz my book went missing... It just disappeared without a trace, and weirdly I found a totally blank, empty 作业 sitting on my room shelf...

Then again, things could have been waayy worst. Imagine losing it in march, or may, or some later date. =D

It's as if the zuoye WANTS to disappear.

Lol.

stressed.

2009-01-30T00:05:00.004+08:00

It's 12.05am now... and I was originally gonna sleep soundly when I realised that I had to print out some stuff for my maths project.

Speaking of maths projects, once again the supposed deadline is just around the corner. And I'm feeling stressed. Seems like everyone is hit with this stress bug... including me. D:

So I hope Mrs Wong will accept my 2nd method when I show ti to her tomorrow... and I hope that my group members will be able to make it tomorrow...s owe can do some crappy measurements. D:

ARGH. feeling stressed.... now i understand how nicholas feels. =D

zzz...

2009-01-29T15:03:00.002+08:00

Okay... I'm feeling sleepy... zzzzzzzz...

So anyways, I'm listening to the mrbrownshow while blogging this. =D Go listen to it if you have time.

And I feel inspired to make a blogskin... mainly thanks to my geog teacher. XD

delirious.

2009-01-28T15:24:00.006+08:00

Just came back from my primary school. If you wanna read about wad i did there, refer to my inglush blog: http://2g17.blogspot.com/

Anyways, I'm feeling slightly feverish after standing under the sun for so long. Oh no! D:

------------------------------

Tomorrow will be the day we'll all go back to school.

Tomorrow will be the day we're having our maths test.

Tomorrow might be a day full of challenges.

Tomorrow might be a day full of pessimism.

Tomorrow will be a NEW DAY.

Tomorrow will be... THE DAY WE WILL SEIZE!

LMAO. Why am I writing such weird stuff!? =D

2009-01-27T13:20:00.002+08:00

Video of my sis playing Road's Song on the keyboard. =D

The song is on the anime D Gray Man; for the original version (with lyrics), click here.

melacholy.sorrow.

2009-01-26T21:02:00.003+08:00

Alot of things have happened over the past few days, and i don't know how to talk about all of them :)

Anyways, every CNY my grandma will come and stay with my family... this year isn't an exception. And just a while ago, the whole Kan family desceneded upon Tampines... fortunately, they have left to their various locations... =D

And suprisingly, I haven't eaten alot of CNY goodies, as compared to previous years. Yaay! :)

On a more serious note,

My projects are getting screwed up. In particular, my MATHS project.

I could blame it on Shuai Chen. For not sending me his contribution earlier today, so I don't have to bug and spam call him, and now both of us are pissed. I could blame it on my group members, for not taking the intitiative to meet up before school ended, so that MAYBE we could have completed the project and relax in peace during this looong break.

Or I could blame it on myself. for revelling in this disorder, and not doing much to make sure we do a good job. For not being a team player. For basically being a jackass. For not trusting people, and just putting burden after burden on myself.

I am Kan Ren Jie and I have been a jackass. I need to pull myself out of this.

----------------------------

Speaking of projects,

There are basically 3 kinds of members.

Firstly, we have those who are pure 'slackers'. They don't care at all. Give them work to do and they don't do anything.

Secondly, we have those very hardworking people. They are hardworking BUT efficient. They know how to tolerate the slackers, and people of the 3rd category; They knwo how to communicate, so that everyone does their fair share of work; nothing more, nothing less. They are basically one of the best members a group can have. =D

The 3rd category belongs to people who are hardworking. TOO hardworking. So hardworking that they put burdens on themselves, they don't trust the other group members to do their work. They are also the solo-kias, the people who do the work needed ALONE. Their group can get good marks, but essentially its the work of only one person.

Guess which category I belong to.

maybe I shouldn't go for IP.... D:

ORANGE!

2009-01-23T21:37:00.003+08:00

For more queries on how to join, pls ask Mr. Tan Xiuqi by spamming him in MSN, SMS, pigeon letters, fortune cookies, hongbaos, wadeva. he LOVES THAT KIND OF STUFF!

LMAO. xD

Lyrics to my blogsong:

Break The Silence - delirious?

Citizens with a secret in our hands
That could ignite our shadow lands
Light it up and let it go
Let it shine with love and grace and a redesign
A ray of hope for the common man
Light it up and let it go

Oh, oh, oh,
We've got to give it away
And there's a price to pay
When we give it away

Break the silence, break the silence,
Cross ever boundary that divides us, divides us
Break the silence, break the silence,
Cross ever border that divides us, oh, unite us

We turn the page, to a future just begun
If heaven is real then let our heaven become
Peace on earth, let it flow.
We raise our voice where the colours all but gone
Paint the world with redemption songs
Stir it up let it flow

oldies.

2009-01-22T15:28:00.002+08:00

We consider Abba, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Beetles songs to be oldies, and the bands themselves to be have-beens.

I'm not disagreeing with that. However, just think about this: 20 years ago, those bands were the equivalent of today's Fall Out boy, MCR, Secondhand Serenade, Simple Plan, Linkin Park etc. etc.

And 20-30 years later, the younger generations will scoff at our 'check yes juliet' and even 'welcome to the black parade'. They may scoff at us for listening to such 'boring' and lame stuff. It's quite a scary thought, don't you agree?

I guess that's just the way life (and the music scene) is. Life is always changing, 'a river that never keeps flowing', and the music scene is always changing and evolving.

And although the thought is frightening, we can't do anything about it.

Might as well enjoy our 'soon-to-be-oldies' for as long as we can. XD

life and times.

2009-01-20T17:47:00.004+08:00

Okay... so today was just a very normal day.

Started the day with chinese. We had to do some stoopid dramatisations of one of our 课文s... Becoz no one bothered to like prepare beforehand or anything, all our plays weren't like very exciting or wadeva... and my CHINESE acting sucks. XD

There was this science project presentation today... my experiment was about some crappy eggshell thingy. Presentation went pretty well, just that at the end miss boey asked me some stoopid question about limewater. I was like... stunned. Some ppl were like trying to tell me the answer, but I didn't understand them. lols.

And oh yarh, thanks alot to xq for helping me in that project...

I also realised that all the projects are piling up... but I guess that's pretty normal too.

And so ends another day in renjie's normal life....

--------------------------------------

And I just realised that Timbuktu is a real place! look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timbuktu

Okay... that isn't very normal. =D

basketball.

2009-01-19T21:26:00.002+08:00

Basketball- Just throw the ball into the basket. Simple.

-Shuai Chen, the future NBA star (hopefully...)

-------------------------------------------------------------

Went to Shuai Chen's house to do D&T project today.... And lols, I had to mass-send 'Love Story' to everyone because all of them wanted it. -.-

Ok, byebye for now... D:

random stuff.

2009-01-17T23:28:00.005+08:00

CNY is next week, and all the cards and goodies have started pouring in. =D

When people write the cards, do they really mean what they write? Or are they doing it just for the sake of doing so?

hmm....

------------------------------------------

(Note: the following may make totally no sense to you if you are not in scouts. But read on anyways. ;p)

Scout meeting today was fun.

It seems to be tradition that everytime a new batch of sec 1s come, we must have a waterbomb fight. So, we did. XD

And Chun Wei took his revenge on me by assaulting me with dunno how many waterbombs... I SHALL HAVE MY REVENGE NEXT YEAR! MUAHAHA!

Oh yarh, while we were having the fight, some band people were practicing in one corner of the parade square.. bet they wanted to join us... but too bad. ;p

And once again, I'm freaking bored...

------------------------------------------------

One thing I have pondered
Is how the mighty fall
I've sung the songs of heaven
Just to lose it all
See me falling down
See me falling down

Another day in paradise
Another day to die
The writing's on the wall again
And the future's asking why
Why we turned away

What does that mean? think about it. ;p

------------------------------------

For this blogskin, I gained inspiration from this song:

Paint The Town Red- delirious?

pleasing to you.

2009-01-16T18:32:00.000+08:00

Sanctify me
Clean out my closet
Take away anything
That is not pleasing to You

Purify me
Destroy all my anger
Wash away everything
That is not pleasing to You

CHORUS
I will be white as snow
I will be pure as gold
Jesus my heart must know
I'm pleasing to You

I give my life my all
Taking the cross I will follow
Jesus my heart must know
I'm pleasing to You

VERSE 2
Sanctify me
You are the light to guide me
To the place where I am
Only pleasing to You

Oh come and Purify me Lord
I need your light inside me
So the darkness flees
And I can be pleasing to You

random videos.

2009-01-15T15:50:00.004+08:00

Now I shall attempt to do what nicholas blogs about best: My life in sch.

So anyways, school was pretty normal today. Had this stoopid lit essay about "why do we study Shakespeare?" Seriously, I felt like writing 'Becoz our teacher says so!' or smthing liddat, but instead I had to write some ridiculous stuff about the themes in Shakespeare's writing, etc. Anyways, I have a feeling I'd do quite badly in it ;p

And now I have a science project to complete... byebye =D

Many thanks to xq for introducing me to this... =D

--------------------------------------------
(Added at 5.40pm)

Since I'm feeling so boliao,

This is the video Mr. liang was talking about during assembly. Go to the youtube link to watch it, and rate. =DD

And it's for a good cause... XD

pefection?

2009-01-09T22:40:00.000+08:00

Hey Dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according
To plan?
Do you think I’m wasting
My time doing things I
Wanna do?
But it hurts when you
Disapprove all along

And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I’m never gonna be good
Enough for you
I can’t pretend that
I’m alright
And you can’t change me

‘Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect
Now it’s just too late
And we can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect

I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be
My hero?
All the days
You spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don’t
Care anymore

And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I’m never gonna be good
Enough for you
I can’t stand another fight
And nothing’ alright

‘Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect
Now it’s just too late
And we can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect

Nothing’s gonna change
The things that you said
Nothing’s gonna make this
Right again
Please don’t turn your back
I can’t believe it’s hard
Just to talk to you
But you don’t understand

‘Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect
Now it’s just too late
And we can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect

‘Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect
Now it’s just too late
And we can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be Perfect

How very apt....

back...

2009-01-08T15:57:00.002+08:00

I'm back! =D

I was supposed to do my english blog-writing hw thingy... but since I had nothing to write about, thought i'd just pop by here..

And yeah, I think school is really having a negative effect on my posts and this blog in general... but I don't really have a choice right?

2009-01-05T22:59:00.002+08:00

Oh yarh, now that the school term has started, my computer time has been drastically "adjusted" by *AHEM* and *AHEM*. So you might not see me post so often. Anyways, I promise I won't let this blog go dead, at least in the near future. XD

Anyways, I just got introduced to my WONDERFUL geog teacher... She's miss( or mrs?) ria, and she speaks with a strong indian accent... of course I can still hear what she's talking about, but it's still kinda weird... =D

Anyways, I sense trouble brewing... D:

red cliff and other random matters.

2009-01-03T23:33:00.003+08:00

While I'm typing this, my dad is blabering on and on about san guo yan yi (Romance of The 3 Kingdoms) just because he watched Red Cliff... (a movie)

And about Red Cliff, my advice: If you hate those long, draggy shows with absolutely no comedy and very few action scenes, and with a screwed up plotline which doesn't follow closely to the actual book, DON'T WATCH RED CLIFF.

Anyways, I'm feeling quite happy. I've FINALLY passed my knots test, completed Scout Standard, and also made 2 peoples' day. And today's a SATURDAY. =D

And lols... I wonder why this post like no substance liddat. Maybe its because of my relatively uneventful week... AGAIN.

2009-01-01T15:50:00.002+08:00

I feel lazy. VERY lazy.

When I look at my homework, I feel sooo sianzz... fortunately, I'm left with just 1 maths question... but its like on a topic which is not taught, and I dun understnad what's in the textbook.

Sighs.

Its 3.50 now, and very soon its gonna be evening. then night. then 1 day has passed. SIAN. D:

ARGH...

new year...

2009-01-01T01:54:00.002+08:00

okay, i think im turning into a hardcore blogger... its 1.55am and I'm BLOGGING when I have other better things to do (like sleep, etc.)

Anyways, for the final time,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

And also.very sorry for dao-ing the following ppl who sms-ed me... my stoopid phone screwed up and i couldn't sms or call any1...

1. Jacob
2. Chief Misfit
3. Lian-ge (WYL)
4. Tristen
5. en
6.Tania

And now, here's what i did for the entire night!

Went to vivo to watch movie with 5 sec 3s (to lazy to name), and tristen. We went to this place that selled 'flame-grilled chicken'... was quite nice acutally. And then went to watch the movie Yes Man.

As for my thoughts abt le movie, that will come tomorrow. But so sad avester didn't come... so we couldn't watch IP Man. =DDD

then after that we saw the 烟花 from the celebrations in sentosa, by the time I wanted to take video, it was too late... sighs.

Anyways, byebye for now. =DDD

2008-12-31T16:56:00.005+08:00

and by the way, I HEREBY DECLARE TODAY RUSSIAN ЯEVERSAL DAY!!!

Therefore, you shall make Russian Reversal jokes and use Я instead of R.

In Soviet Яussia, GAY is Nicholas!!!!!!

In Soviet Яussia, black parade joins YOU!!!!

IN Soviet, Яussia, Renjie owns YOU!!!!!!!!!!

In Soviet Russia, picture hangs YOU!!!!!!!!!!

Have fun! OR DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

CNY.

2008-12-31T16:36:00.002+08:00

Chinese New Year is in Jan this year, and today I found a flyer regarding some stoopid yusheng thingy in my letterbox...

CNY has been below average, dreadful, and at most average for me. Sometimes I just wish that CNY never existed, so I don't have to go through all thehustle and bustle of it all.

Try having your dad quarelling and bitching about your grandma when she comes and stay at our house, and try having your dad throwing tantrems and refusing to visit his siblings' houses. Mostly because of a stupid argument everyone got into when I was just 6.

And try visinting your relatives' houses when you are like... so far away from them, and only see them at most a few times a year. It really is a chore, because the entire family has just fell apart and disintergrated so much, that those people that I see every year are like strangers to me.

And my grandmother will probably come and live with us for the 2 to 3 days. I don't hate her, but I think she does have a bad impression of me. And we're like seperated by a language barrier, mainly becuz my chinese sucks.

Anyways, there isn't much to look out to for CNY, except the 2 days holiday I will receive. However, in the name of CHINESE TRADITIONS (bleaugh), i shall have visit all my relatives... AGAIN.

--------------------------------------

ABOVE WAIST! =DDD

2008-12-25T17:32:00.002+08:00

Earlier today, someone asked me if I've been to any christmas parties.

I haven't been to one for ages, mainly because 1. I don't feel like it and 2. i don't see the point of having massive parties on christmas.

Or maybe it has to do with my personality. =D

Anyways, my opinion is that people who party like siao on christmas, christmas eve and boxing day are stupid.

After all the fun and games, all the laughter, all the gift-giving and all the turkey at the party, ask yourself: Why am I celebrating?

You may say you are celebrating His birth. But is the focus really on Him?

I'm not against gift-giving, christmas trees or anything; nor am I saying that christmas shouldn't be celebrated. Its just that I don't see the point of having christmas parties. In the end, I feel that there's not much difference from any other normal party. (apart from the turkey, and the gift-giving) I find it pointless, and just dry.

----------------------------------------------------

I unwrapped my christmas presents yesterday.

I'm not going to take photos of all of them and post them here; but well, thanks alot,people! =D

Kingdom Of Comfort- Delirious?

Save me save me
From the kingdom of comfort where I am king
From my unhealthy lust of material things

I built myself a happy home
In my palace on my own
My castle falling in the sand
Pull me out, please grab my hand
I just forgot where I came from

Save me save me
From the kingdom of comfort where I am king
From my unhealthy lust of material things

I rob myself of innocence
With the poison of indifference
I buy my stuff at any cost
A couple of clicks and I pay the price
Coz what I gain is someone else's loss

Save me save me
From the kingdom of comfort where I am king
From my unhealthy lust of material things

Instrumental/Lament

Save me save me
From the kingdom of comfort where I am king
To this kingdom of heaven where you are king

--------------------------------------------------------------

Here's something to chew on: Are you building a Kingdom Of Comfort?

I don't think I need to draw any comparisms to us and other people around the globe. (Africa always kenna this kind of comparisms XD).

It's really sad that while we're singing about God's goodness, God's mercy, there are people out there who haven't even heard about God and are literally starving to death.

We house ourselves in our own kingdom, while proclaiming that we are actually serving God. We have festivals, traditions, beliefs, blessings, fellowship, conferences, sermons, congregations, you name it, we have it... yet the poor, opressed, enslaved, disturbed, the people who really need to know about God are left behind. They are left in the lurch to suffer, while we all benefit from being in this 'kingdom' of ours.

Its quite ironic that we are supposed to be the light of the world, yet we often isolate ourselves from the ostracised, from the isolated, from the heartbroken, from those who really need to know God. And we still dare to call ourselves the light of the world?

It's time to destroy the kingdom, this 'clique' of ours. It really is.

------------------------------------------------

Christmas is approaching, and I'm sure Toys R Rus will be packed with children begging their parents to buy them all sorts of toys.

It's funny how the 'joys of materialism' can strike people at such a young age.

God Is Smiling-- Delirious?

Open up the gates of love
Turn the tide and stop the flood
You've got my heart now, got my soul.
Who is my neighbour, where's the love?
That speaks for those our world has lost
Its every heart now, every soul

We are one, when our beating/bleeding hearts belong
And love can be the revolution
That sees your kingdom come

God is smiling over us tonight
God is smiling over us tonight
where hearts are broken love unites
God is smiling, God is smiling over us tonight

So we must cross the great divide
Of colour, creed of wealth and pride
Break our hearts and save us all
So can we sing a brand new song?
Where former enemies belong
It's every heart now, every soul.

We are one, when our beating/bleeding hearts belong
And love can be the revolution
That sees your kingdom come

God is smiling over us tonight
God is smiling over us tonight
where hearts are broken love unites
God is smiling, God is smiling over us tonight

You are the centre.

2 lyrics in a day and 3 posts. That's a record. =D

I don't think I have to comment on this song. The message behind it is pretty obvious.

crash n burn.

2008-12-18T19:19:00.002+08:00

Savage Garden- Crash And Burn

When you feel all alone
And the world has turned its back on you
Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
It's hard to find relief and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door
And you feel that you can't take anymore

Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone

When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
You're caught in a one way street
With the monsters in your head
When hopes and dreams are far away and
You feel like you can't face the day

Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone

Because there has always been heartache and pain
And when it's over you'll breathe again
You'll breathe again

When you feel all alone
And the world has turned its back on you
Give me a moment please
To tame your wild wild heart

Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone

I think it's obvious who the 'I' in this song is....

the case for singapore.

2008-12-18T17:50:00.002+08:00

Ladies and Gentlemen,

There was a joke in the former Soviet Union which goes like this. In Pravda, there is no "truth" and in Isvestia there is no "news", which by the way were the 2 main newspapers in Soviet Russia. In Russian, Pravda meant "truth" and Izvestia meant "news". Both, of course, were state owned and controlled newspapers in the former Soviet Union. But what you got was neither truth nor news, just plain propaganda. That the Soviet Union is doing well. Grain production has gone up ten fold. The country cannot be in a better shape. Everything is just perfect. Except that the Soviet Union in truth was crumbling.

Which reminds me of the state owned and controlled Singapore newspapers such as the Straits Times. And by the way, the entire Singapore press and media is both owned and controlled by Lee Kuan Yew and his government. No one is allowed to print and publish any newspaper in Singapore without a permit from Lee Kuan Yew's government under the Newspapers and Printing Presses Act. And you guessed it. If you were going to write anything critical of him, you not only would be denied that permit, but you will be sued for defamation, crippling damages will be awarded and you will be promptly bankrupted.

Hmm... I doubt that you have ever read The Straits Times. It has never claimed that everything is perfect in Singapore, and although it is state-owned, does it post propaganda like the Soviet Union newspapers that you mentioned above? Obviously not. Just flip into today's newspapers and you're find articles like 'Exports fall for 7th month' and articles about how foreign workers are mis-treated. What does that say about the Straits Times?

I have not been able to get any real news in the state controlled Straits Times. For instance today's Straits Times carried an article about a teenage boy who had sex with another teenager; a prostitute was found precariously hanging from a high rise HDB flat and Walter Woon, Singapore's Attorney General counters an argument of a lawyer who says there is one law for the rich and another for the poor. But what news is there about the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Ministry of Trade, the Ministry of Manpower, the Foreign Ministry? Nothing.

And no one can contradict anything put out by this state controlled press one way or the other, for the simple reason that no one knows what is really happening.

'real news' is subjective.

Which leaves me to guess as best I can, reading what is out there in the foreign media. They tell us that Singapore has turned into a tax haven for the rich from other countries, as a money laundering center, like Vanuatu, a Pacific atoll. A place where the poor are no longer able to live due to unbearable costs. A place where one person takes his life everyday mainly by jumping off high rise HDB flats and where the government uses the law courts to punish dissenters by throwing them in jail, one of the victims being myself.

You say that The Sraits Times is biased, state-controlled, whatever. But have you considered that the news sources which state that 'Singapore has turned into a tax haven for the rich from other countries, as a money laundering center' may also be biased? And just because a couple of cases involving suicide and dissenters and rising costs of living are published in the newspapers, you jump to conclusions and basically say that 'Singapore sucks BIGTIME.' Don't you think that YOU YOURSELF ARE EVEN MORE BIASED THAN THE STRAITS TIMES?

And by the way, if The Straits Times was indeed biased, the article about your infamous trial would definitely be full of mis-information about you, but instead I find information which corraborates with what you have previously written. Would you please explain that?

On the whole, one thing is clear. The reputation of Singapore has been irreparably tarnished. There is no doubt about it. The Washington Post is the foremost and most highly respected newspaper in the United States together with the New York Times. And if the Washington Post reports that Singapore is a country which uses its laws to suppress legitimate criticism, then this must be the end for Singapore. And this is exactly what they did in their report titled "Public enemy in Singapore" dated Dec 9, 2008 when they described the shameful use of the law courts to silence Dr. Chee Soon Juan.

Singapore is not a self sufficient agricultural country that can ignore international opinion. It is not Burma. Every aspect of Singapore's existence depends on the goodwill of the world. Trade, education, investment, banking and commerce. Once it's reputation is sullied, it can no longer pretend to be a place that one chooses to invest in, a place where one gets educated in, a place where one does honest banking.

Just because an American newspaper criticizes Singapore doesn't mean that all is lost for her. And its just one newspaper, even though its highly respected, that doesn't mean that The New York Times is the truth, that its critcism of Singapore will definitely lead to her downfall.

And show me evidence that everything about Singapore, its education system, banking, investments, etc. are all fake.

And in the end, the truth always has a habit of surfacing. Tyrants and dictators around the world will try to put up a good face in public, but their lies and deceit must eventually begin to take a toll. As is the case with Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew.

Hmm... you say that 'the truth' shall surface. But don't you know how subjective 'truth' is? Can you please help your readers by explaining what your nonsensecial truth is?

Another report of significance is the Asian Wall Street Journal's article titled "Democracy in Singapore" of June 26 2008 and the article titled "Singapore maneuvers in response to Chee" in the Far Easter Economic Review of Dec 9, 2008. These are not papers that one can easily dismiss. They are read by people of importance all over the world. And what they say is the same thing. That Singapore's attempt to show themselves as a democracy with the rule of law is nothing but a front. That it is in fact plain and simply a dictatorship with Lee Kuan Yew the dictator since 1959, as long a Fidel Castro of Cuba.

'Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me'... Ok, maybe some important newspapers are anti-Singapore. And myabe they are read by important people. But tell me, did investers suddenly flock away from Singapore just because several newspapers whine and bitch about how 'unfree' Singpore is? Is Singapore in the state of bankruptcy? Life still moves on, and Singapore is still prosperous, in spite of the whining and bitching of biased people like you.

Dr. Chee Soon Juan is undoubtedly winning in this battle between democracy and tyranny, between truth and falsity and between the rule of law and rule by dictate. And with the Godsend, the Internet, Lee Kuan Yew cannot win in his desperate attempt to continue to keep criticism under wraps.

You complain about Lee Kwan Yew's desparate attempt to keep criticism under wraps, when you yourself keep what is OBVIOUSLY the truth under wraps, and are biased in almost everything you write. What an UNBIASED comparism.

The effect of this bad publicity will undoubtedly take a toll on the Singapore dictator's ability to continue with business as usual. The rot has already begun to spread. The edifice has to fall in due course. This is the time for everyone who cares for Singapore to weigh in with the truth and help to turn this place into a real democracy. Agitate, write, protest, go to jail, do whatever you can. It cleanses the soul. And you can look at yourself tomorrow and tell yourself, there was a man. Not a dictator's lackey.

Ditto above above. And if you're trying to start a people's revolution, be prepared to wait until majority of Singaporeans share the same opinion as you. Until then, continue to bitch and whine about how bad Lee Kwan Yew, how corrupted Singapore is; no one will care about you.

Incase you're wondering why renjie was MIA-ing from this blog for the past 2 days, renjie has just returned from a CAMP.

Scout camp to be more precise. If you're looking for a detailed breakdown of what we did during the camp, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. =D But anyways, the camp was fun.

Off to play Sims 2. Bye bye... :)

2008-12-13T23:29:00.003+08:00

Mrs Jenness introduced the speaker as a therapist. She also attended an Enigima Babylon One World Faith cogregation and met Nicolae Carpathia.
"You have the power within you to overcome everything," the woman said. "No matter how bad your situation, if you learn how to trust yourself and your feelings, you can become the person the Global Community needs."

Vicki couldn't wait until it was time for questions.

Kids who had lost family members in the bombings were in tears. They were engerized by the 'postive messgae' of the therapist. Vicki's heart went out to them. What the speaker said had made her angry.

Soon, she was up next.

--------------------------------------------------------
The speaker pointed to Vicki and smiled. "You have a question?"

"Yes," Vicki said. "If you knew for sure where a person went after he died, wouldn't that be the best hope?"

Vicki continued. "Let's say your father dies and you're bummed. But you know without doubt that your dad went to heaven. Wouldn't that help a lot?"

"However, heaven is a state of mind, not a real place. And if a person knew what happened to the loved one after he passed on, it would give him hope, but we have to deal with reality. The reality is, we can't know what's beyond this life until we gone there."

"That's where you're wrong. We can know." Vicki said. "I can tell you that nobody is good enough to go to heaven. We're all sinners. But God made a way for us--"

-------------------------------------------------

The abv is an excerpt of a book I just finished reading. =D

no, there is no such thing as Enigima Number 1 World Faith (or wadeva you wanna call it), I am not into new age religions, and I definitely do not believe that we are strong enough to overcome obstacles alone, without God's help.

I decided to post this excerpt because I found it interesting, how people can overcome obstacles jsut by 'trusting in themselves'. i trust in myself, I know that I have the ability to achieve, but then why did I get swamped by emotions and emo-ness in the past? Why?

In the end, I think that everyone is forced to admit that these new-age religions will never help you solve your problems. Especially Enigima Babylon One World Faith. ;p

shiro.

2008-12-11T20:38:00.003+08:00

A couple of months ago I said that I'm gonna write a shiro tribute post... this is that long overdued tribute post =D

2 year have passed since we got shiro... come to think of it, I have many fond memories of him... and some unfond ones too... D:

I remember the first time I went to see shiro. I went with my then Primary 6 sis, and I remember that he was like 'quarelling' with another dog, barking loudly, yapping, etc... he was much much smaller than his current size, and VERY cute...

I remember the first night shiro spent with us. At that time, I was afraid of dogs. Now I have NO IDEA WHY I WAS SO SCARED OF DOGS! THEY'RE SO LOVABLE AND NICE! HOW CAN ANYONE BE SCARED OF THEM!? Anyways, I remember that we let him out of his playpen at night, and he was running around the house at full speed. How cute.... =D

I remember being scammed by Pet Lover's Centre/Pet Safari. Seriously, if you wanna get a dog, don't try Pet Safari. We got scammed by them. bigtime. Anyways, they said that shiro was only 7 months old (when we saw him), but according to alot of ppl we apporached, they said that shiro was obviously 1 YEAR OLD. RAWR! D:

And we bought this dog bag, for containing him when we leave home with him. The person at Pet Safari said that Shiro won't grow bigger already, and will always be able to fit the bag, but now he can't fit it oreadi. Anyways, now my sis uses it as a sling bag. =D

I remember trying to potty-training shiro. I guess almost every pet dog in Singapore will have to learn how to defecate and urinate on the newspaper/ toilet/ wadever. It took us alot of time to teach shiro that, and was quite frustrating at times...

I remember the times we spent together, the fun we had! We shared many fond memories together, they are jsut too many to mention! =D

And shiro's just next to me, sleeping happily, as usual.... ;p

And The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy is finally not on loan! YEAH! =D

sims 2 and life...

2008-12-11T12:35:00.002+08:00

In Sims 2, its very easy to make friends.

To make a friend, all you have to do is to make sure your sim and that friend have a daily relationship of 50 and above. To make a best friend, their long term relationship has to be 50 and above.

You may not understand what I was talking about just now, but anyways, its kinda disturbing that in Sims, your relationship is calculated using a score.

What about in real life? In real life, you can't be sure whether someone regards you as a friend... there's always uncertainty, and there's certainly no helpful 'relationship meter' to tell you whether anot someone regards you as a friend.

However, something I like about relationships in The Sims is that it has an element of uncertainty. Since both Sim's daily relationship must be above 50, if your Sim's relationship with the other Sim hits 100, and yet that Sim's relationship with you is below 50, you will never be friends.

Anyways, you can't expect much from THe Sims, because techincally its just a SIMULATION of everyday life. =D

有过泪有过错
还记得坚持甚么

真爱过才会懂
会寂寞会回首
终有梦终有你在心中

朋友一生一起走
那些日子不再有
一句话一辈子
一生情一杯酒
朋友不曾孤单过
一声朋友你会懂
还有伤还有痛
还要走还有我

Its been a long time since I posted about my life... recently have been spamming quizzes, videos and philosphical crap... not that I'm being cooped up at home everyday, but I didn't feel like posting about my life....

Anyways, recently I went to vivo with my family....

The above picture was taken at this departmetal store called Daiso. The stuff there all no price tag de, becoz all the stuff is $2!!!!!!!!! Yeah, even their belts and ties are also a freaking 2 DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That stainless steel soap thingy is supposed to deodorize(sp?) your hands, looks interesting but we didn't buy it. haha.

And oh yarh, while at Daiso, my sis went CRAZY. Daiso came from Japan, the land of uber kawaii-ness and all weird, random stuff (like the stainless steel soap!) and their stuff is mostly Made In Japan, so she was like, "OMG! THIS THING SOOOOO CUTE! MUST BUY!"

Anyways, the final bill came up to $20... and that's quite good already... I saw quite alot of ppl buy about $50 of stuff.... looks like Daiso has a good marketing strategy...

And we also went to this bookstore called PageOne. I regret not taking any pictures... but anyways, that bookstore is about the size of Kinokuniya. I was reading this book about vampires there, I regret not buying it... sighs. And their CD collection RAWKS! =D

And oh yarh, now I'm waiting for The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy to be back from transit at the Tampines Regional Library... That book contains the answer to life, the universe and everything in it... DUN UNDERESTIMATE IT HOR! VERY POWDEFUL ONE LEH!! =D
