everything seems brighter after promos. food tastes better, days are happier, the air is sweeter. finished reading Thud today. very interesting storyline, much more so than a lot of that high fantasy crap. aim to finish catch-22 and some other books in the next week. ahhh such a long week and i dunno what to do ><
today was a glorious waste of time =) like miki said, this is the life. played nwn main campaign for about 2 hours, slacked around the house, read the onion (www.theonion.com. not the veggie lol). going to play electone soon i think. too bad i can't access wiki and uncyclopedia =/ wanted to read up on random stuff too. ohwell. apparently i have 3 of the 7 deadly sins. lol. it's finally over and we're all in post-exam high =)
today's class outing was damn fun! after physics paper (which was okay. don't talk about it) we went to play handball.... with a soccer ball. lol needless to say it was quite a lot easier to save =/ everyone died under the hot sun but i didn't. i wonder why. haha anyway after talking cock for awhile and buying drinks and having shah guai lan us, we went for lunch. somehow i feel compelled to write all the details so bear with me. too lazy to walk to j8 so we took a 410.... then at the stop too lazy to stop so we took the long long loop all the way to the interchange. heh. getting onto the train was quite difficult cos it was crowded and pj got left behind... so mervin, wen hao, eugene and wei liang got down to wait for her. and the other girls (huizhen theyall lol). somehow they got the idea to take cab instead. so yeah after a lot of confusion we ended up at seoul garden marina. ate a lot, found out that we have 4 buddhists (at least) in our class, discovered someone's obssession with black pepper beef and another someone's with eggs -.- , and generally ate a lot and talked a lot. i think i went overboard today in post-exam madness so.... yeah. paiseh. as usual (it is usual right?) we couldn't think of something to do after eating so we ended up sitting at an empty spot and playing lame games. okay we had a slow start but it generally got funner as the day wore on. went from murderer to the chicken backside game (er don't ask me why it's called that) to concentration ^^, and then to the scissors-paper-stone stretching game. by that time night had fallen, and at 8pm we (xy, huizhen, christina, pj, nandita, priscilla, me, wen hao and eugene) went to esplanade to look see. ended up stopping by the bayside and listening to the band(s?) play. the view is super nice..... and the ambience =) the (skyline?), the sea, the music, and the time of day. and the company of course =) so we stayed there for a long time enjoying the feeling and reminiscing about "old times". yeah we're all old men and women already. time's passing so fast.... but anyway people got hungry and people had to leave, so eventually the bunch of us left for mac's. didn't stay long cos it was so late alr, so we had a quick bite and left. and to top it all off, just when i almost reached my bus stop i saw my bus (190 btw) moving off, so i chased after it for some distance and finally caught it after 2 stops =) lol blame it on the high again. ran almost the distance of 1 mrt stop heh. okay that isn't much but aiyah. a fun end to a fun day. so now i'm super tired. but then there's nothing at all on tomorrow! no mugging no nothing. don't feel like sleeping either..... too high. though i might just fall asleep if i go lie on my bed =/ yup end of a long long post. sorry la haven't posted for so long. so yeah bye. "what's this promos thing i've been hearing so much about? it sounds scary"
-xava some people.... lolz. how time flies.

lol im having a fruitful discussion about superstring theory, gravity wells and quantum computers now. so fun =) higher level physics is so much funner. u know, it's always the case when, long after you grow up, you look back and realise that "hey, pa was right after all." i always used to get irritated when my dad nagged me about how i wasn't achieving my potential, blah blah all that. and i don't deny that i still do. but when it comes down to it, i guess he was right all along.
hm. was just walking home today from the bus stop and i saw quite a few couples. the thought actually went through my mind: when's it going to be my turn? but i guess if i can even ask that question, that means im not ready for it. oh well now's not the time to think about that anyway.
today's intraclass handball was fun =) why does that remind me of cyclic esters somehow -.- but yeah i was goalie for awhile and saved quite alot of shots =) should play handball again. heh. willy and wen hao some pro. all i could do was stand there and watch the ball go by whenever willy came. but fun lar. haven't been goalie for so long. the tensing once someone gets into the goalscoring area and then the successful block =) heheh. okay this is sounding too ego liao so. stop everybody's mugging like some bomb. im only confident for 3 subjects out of 5 myself. time to piah more i guess. list of people to own these promos: 1. wen hao in chem 2. eugene in chem (1 lemon tea at stake! lol) 3. jian wei in GP. 4. err i think that's it. maths and physics i'll settle for a decent grade like C. the owning i'll leave til later =) if at all possible. which brings me to something i thought about on the way back from school, after wen hao and miki had left. is it important to be good in everything? or just your chosen field? i mean personally, my chosen field is music so naturally i expect myself to be able to make music. chem and writing are my field too so im okay at them... but do i really need to expect mysefl to be good in everything? specialisation increases efficiency and productivity >< okay nvm i didn't say that. 美人计 LOL. argh as usual, i lost the train of thought the moment i came online to blog. was going to blog something about.... promos? no. never about promos.
haven't had much chance to play electone lately, what with all the late night mugging and my toe injury... incidentally my toe looks damn disgusting now. im trying not to look at it ><>< but then by the time it heals there won't be any PE anymore. gah. school's beautiful at night =) never thought i would say that about rj, but yeah, it really is. or maybe it's just that 4-5 hours of mugging makes you 眼花缭乱 then u see pretty colours before your eyes. ...yaright. and this post is damn disjointed... but i just want to follow up on something i read. i misquote, "slacking is tempting, but hard work brings satisfaction." wise sayings indeed. i've never felt more at peace with myself, or more satisfied with the day, then after a good day's mugging =) time to pack up and go to bed. i've actually started compiling a list of things that i want to own someday, when i get my own place. it's quite short, surprisingly. apart from the com, some books, my electone and some stuff for my wife (read: drumset), there's not much i want. i need a fridge too, yeah. and some sofa thing. but that's about it.
lol. im really bored. dunno what to blog about. been mugging and slacking, both of which are uneventful so.....
yeah. i have nothing to blog about. oh yeah i owe jonathan $26 and wen hao 2 lemon teas. why am i saying that here? cos i have nothing to blog about.  fried rice heavenlol okay not all of it is fried rice. but aiyah close enough la. recognise your face here? =)    hey i just realised! Wake Me Up When September Ends - Green Day is the perfect song for the occasion =)
lol was just thinking about some of the shirts and stuff that i own. they're filled with memories =) like the RI PE shirt that has blue paint on it, from that time we were painting the class... and the PE shorts that have a tiny hole in them, from the time a spark burned through it during firestarting course at hanxin's house.... and my band jersey that only has the "O" left from the original "LOCK"... fun stuff.
lol today when browsing the bishan library (quite cool. but a bit small) i saw a book by a guy called O'Reilly. i think the name is just plain sad. i can just imagine: Person: what's your name? O'Reilly: O'Reilly. Person: oh really? -.- ok that was lame. today was fun and productive. mugged in school, had lunch, went to see the new bishan library, then hitched a ride with pa to NUS for PW. i was late sorry >< but it really wasn't my fault. okay maybe it was. i should have known better and gone by myself. yup then PW was okay. we talked about OO abit, came to no new conclusions.... and then i mugged maths for so long that i was late for dinner =) lol shocked right? don't be. i think it was more because the bus came late than anything. lol. and i gotta go bathe le. better publish this first before it gets deleted or something someone told me to blog about something happy...... like her. no prizes for guessing who =)
eh but then i got nothing to talk about. cos nothing happy happened -.- - im happy that there's only 4 topics to mug. and i've finished 1 1/2 topics already - nar's happy and content, for unknown reasons - zhu's sort-of-happy cos he's hyper from talking to people. and he's being secretive about who he's talking about =) - the person who got me to write this entry is probably happy too. cos she's always happy -.- except when she's not. but that's really rare. - ... how can we be happy? promos are in TWO (2) WEEKS! oh yeah. yesterday there was a thunderstorm. right when the wind was blowing the hardest, the tree outside got struck by lightning. want to know why? cos the tree sway. yeah sorry. old joke. LOL quote zhu feng: "you sort of kowtow to your computer." ^.-? [edit] im bleeding all over the house. lol okay it's melodramatic on purpose. but i've had to mop up blood in 3 rooms already lol. [/edit] ....... politics. i hate it.
you know, i thought there was something i wanted to say, but i forgot.
time to move on. and to devote more of my time to band. after promos that is why should it affect me so much? i've always enjoyed doing the backstage behind-the-scenes work. but after all the work i guess it would be nice to get some kind of recognition.
immaturity -.- left right centre.
the night sky was once full of stars, shining, glittering, illuminating the night with their shimmering glow. once it turned dark, the land was bathed in a warm silver light, cutting through the endless dark. there was never anything to fear, for none of the creatures of the dark dared to venture out into the cleansing, purifying silver night. all was well. until they came. spreading baseless rumours of boons given and wishes granted by falling stars, the self-styled Celestes descended upon the land from nowhere and spread like a plague. there were soon countless Celestes spreading rumours in all of the major cities of the world. ordinarily there would have been little fuss; but the Celestes taught how to cause the stars to fall from the sky as well. and so, driven by greed, ambition, and for some, desperation, humans all over the world started to call stars to the earth. with each fallen star, the night sky dimmed; and with each dimming, the humans' spirits started to dim as well. but none could resist the temptation of the boundless power offered, and soon, there were but a handful of stars left in the sky. darkness descended upon the land; and evil, emboldened, roamed freely in the night, terrible in its reign of tyranny... which is why the night is so dark, and you can't see many stars in Singapore night sky. haha did i just waste 5 minutes of your time? sometimes the night is so heavy and charged with emotion that it makes me want to walk into the endless night and never come back. looking up, there's a single point of light stabbing through an otherwise boundless expanse of black. more like an affront, an obscenity than a guiding light, it disturbs the pattern, perverting the perfect simplicity and celestial harmony in the night sky.
and the feeling disturbed me so much that i came back home and wrote a paragraph about it. it was tangible; the atmosphere was heavy, suffocating. the night was inviting me to lose myself in its dark nothingness. stands to reason that if you can't feel, you can't be hurt. which is kind of the theme for my new blogskin too. [edit] the thing about bitching is, you always regret it the day after. therefore.... delete. [/edit] rather fed up with sch admin. why is it so bloody rigid? RI was never like this -.-
