Growth
2005-07-30

A what? I donoe. Monkey.

Nvm.. I brought my diskman! ah hah.. except couldn't listen to it much. Cos not that many free periods. Zzz.

Blah yar... I'm feeling much better now after a good night's rest. As well as much music. I decided to go for FOP instead of Sonicfest. So there.

I think I'm learning much more how to deal with problems. I think Bio S was nice. Haha.. not for what they taught but rather what I did. So I had a nicer talk with Joyce than I had ever before. Although she was colouring my staples pink with flowers.. and not to mention some other weird patterns.

Just learning how to let go. He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep, to gain what he cannot lose. In fact I realised that is what growth is all about. In physical as well as spiritual. In the physical sense, growth is defined as the the irreversible increase in dry mass. So in that way, pupae use stored food substances to create new tissue. In actual sense, using what it cannot keep, to gain what it cannot lose. Growth.

Maybe its already too late. But better late than never. And better chocolate than late. And better stop this before it gets too lame.

I think I better get down to focusing on my studies... 2 more weeks and I haven't even finished half of chem and phys. And not to mention already forgot all the bio that I learnt already. I think I'll go at double speed from now on. Muz stay back every day after sch liao.

Puella Amico.

Dont Ask Dont Tell
2005-07-28

Was feeling quite tired/cynical/pessimistic/weary/dead, when school ended. But still decided to hang around to wait for zY to make up his mind about whether he was going for chem s. Big mistake. Ended up doing Daryl's puzzle for 2 periods but not solving it. So I went home, cos zY still hadn't decided.

I still felt quite drained anyway. So I went home and slept for 3 hrs. And I was feeling quite moody too... cos I was feeling so unloved. No one likes me anyway. So what do I care. And after that I became cynical, actually was going to write a really cynical post some time back but decided against it.

Oh why don't you just stab a knife into me and wriggle it around while you're at it. But fortunately or unfortunately, I forgot most of what I was going to write in here. Partially because of physics. Fortunately cos it wasn't going to be very nice, unfortunately cos I thought it was a very beautifully crafted piece of prose. Too bad I forgot. But no one cares about me anyway, so why should I care.

Cordis Frangis. I hope no one knows what it means, cos I'm not telling. Seems like someone wants to wallow in his misery. I think that's weird. And my sound is gone. Please wait while I restart my com.

But then I cheered up quite abit after listening to music. I think I shall bring my diskman tomorrow and shut myself up.

Give to the wind your fear
Hope and be undismayed
God hears your sighs and counts your tears
God will lift up, God will lift up,
lift up your head

Leave to His sovereign sway
To choose and to command
Then shall we wandering on His way
Know how wise and how strong
How wise and how strong

Through waves and clouds and storms,
He gently clears the way
Wait because in His time, so shall this night
Soon end in joy, soon end in joy
Soon end in joy, soon end in joy

Ding Dong Bell
2005-07-27

It's shakespearean love.

Tell me where is fancy bred,
Or in the heart or in the head?
How begot, how nourished?
Reply, reply.

It is engender’d in the eyes,
With gazing fed; and fancy dies
In the cradle, where it lies.
Let us all ring fancy’s knell;
I’ll begin it – Ding, dong, bell.

Ding, dong, bell.

How interesting Shakespeare is
I can't find things to rhyme with this
Yet his poem makes so much sense
It makes Ben's seem so dense
Or maybe it's just Zhongyan's pants
Hence.

I can't do this. It's too hard.. and I need to mug phys not lit. And i need to write... something. Secret.

Thou lovely source of true delight
2005-07-24

Wanted to make a new blog layout. Went to search for the image I had in mind. And couldn't find it. So after I brief run through, maybe I should change the layout I had in mind.. Sigh.

Thou lovely source of true delight whom I unseen adore
Unveil Thy beauties to my sight that I might love Thee more
Oh that I might love Thee more

Thy glory o'er creation shines yet in Thy sacred word
I read in fairer brighter lines my bleeding, dying Lord
Oh my bleeding, dying Lord

'Tis here whene'er my comforts droop and sin and sorrows rise
Thy love with cheering beams of hope my fainting heart supplies
My fainting heart's supplied

And ah too soon the pleasing scene is clouded over with pain
My gloomy fears rise dark between and I again complain
Oh and I again complain

Jesus my Lord, my life, my light, oh come with blissful ray
Break radiant through the shades of night and chase my fears away
Won't you chase my fears away

Then shall my soul with rapture trace the wonders of Thy love
But the full glories of Thy face are only known above
They are only known above

Oh come let us adore
My bleeding dying Lord

Sombre
2005-07-23

I don't know what to feel. Haha... Everything seems so surreal now. Kind of like Surrey. Which is in Canada. The land of the moose. And mousse. But not mouse. How abt house?

o.0. But anyway, yay for Kenneth on for his sombre sombreros! I want mine soon... And 3 cheers for Lifeng, who um.. survived a typhoon! And for Ken Tay too! It feels like a cartoon! Hope you all had a safe trip and welcome home. And Lif, I want my Chen Sui Bien action figure.. but its ok if you can't get one.. I'm very sui bian... But I'm not very chen. Or chem. Dam.

How cheem. Anyway, that was a joke from Fish and Co. What does a fish say when it bangs his head on a wall? Dam! Haha.. but anyway I wanted to blog more about my week. But it seems I'm too weak, and so is my memory. So what can I say. I'm sorry? But It's ok. I'll tell you more about yesterday. Its so cool how everything rhymes. So fine.

Guitarrrr concert day. And who better to be on the guitarrr than AG the fiddle. Who better to watch than Alk the monkey pirate. Who else would be interested in things that end with Arrr.. Yay for AG and Darf who has yet to appear. Maybe next time on ATMP, on season 2. heh. I have big plans.

So guitar was good, but the before was better. After school found out that bio S was cancelled.. so went to Holland V to eat. Eh no.. went to void deck to mug first. It wasn't very void. Cos there were a few people there.. But then went to eat with zY and peter and um channy. Yar.. I kinda forgot, then zhi and yyk came later. To BK. O and I met Derek at BK, and monkey zY was being a monkey. Played abit of tennis with Peter's phone on got owned by the com. haha. Or phone. Since I wasn't playing on a com. Maybe only got intercom. Hm.

Ok. I got thrashed by the AI in any case. So we ate and mugged, and mugged and ate. And talked much crap and came up with many new lines for ATMP. But I forgot them all. We were just jacking eah other and laughing so hard, that's all I remember. That's not very sombre is it. O yar, I forgot something. That Alk didn't go, cos he rather stay in the void deck. And doing who knows what with who knows who. Or is it whom. I think whom, on a whim. But then we went back quite soon and saw Alk there again, seated so high up. So far back... monkey, and in the end whom didn't even sit there cos apparently the Canon InDeed camera was so much more interesting than Alk.

So poor Alk, don't worry, there will be germs in the next atmp episode. When it comes out. And this is becoming very long. And windy. Eh.. I mean winded. Ooo.. So I have new songs to learn for guitarrr now. Yay. And then I went home and dotaed. The end.

How anti climax.

Bang.

Into the arms of grace
2005-07-19

Im probably gonna change my background again 1 day, to something which I haven't decided fully yet. I have a rough pic of it in my brain.

I felt abit down towards the afternoon. Haha.. felt.. down.. get it? nevermind. I bet no one gets it. Anyway, surprisingly what cheered me up was pe. The extremely stupid movements made me keep laughing. And I managed to have a nice chat with myself throughout pe. So I was cheered up.

Anyway went home back to my com. And back to Christian radio! I like all these new songs which I have never heard before. Like this.

Jaci Velasquez - If This World

Do you feel you've been disowned
Left outside in the cold
And without a home?
Do you think that no one cares
That you're lost and alone
And without a prayer?
Don't give in to the lie
That there's no one you can turn to
Don't lose heart, there is hope
There is someone who will never desert you

CHORUS:
If this world is a lonely place for you
Fall into the arms of love
If this world is a lonely place for you
There's a God who you can trust
Who'll comfort you and lift you up
Are you looking for a friend
Who will stand by your side
To the very end?
Someone who is always true
To his word, be assured
He won't turn from you
Put your faith in the One
Who will never let you down
He has proven His love
Open up to all He has for you now

I want to get so many CDs...

Eventful weekend
2005-07-16

Indeed it has been very eventful. Espescially after I was sick for 2 days and went back to school on Friday, feeling really recharged and hyper. Though my medicine kind of wore me out by lunch haha. But it was good. I managed to talk to some people which I have sort of stopped talking to. And it was good being able to carry out conversations with you once again! =)

Good luck to Lifeng and Kenneth Tay in Taiwan and Mexico respectively. Remember my Chen Sui Bian action figure and sombrero respectively. Of course just do your best lar, concentrate on your olympiads!

Oh well got cut off there cos zy wanted me to dota. That monkey.. haha. Yes on Saturday I went to Funan to shop for peripherals. Yay got an optical mouse which I'm still not used to, cos it jumps all over the place. And I finally got a new graphics card, and tested it out on dota. haha... Yay, the power of Geforce 6200! My com just met the minimum specs lor. Oh wait, my com doesn't have specs, but my msn has contacts. Hahahaha.

Sorry I was playing with the red light below my mouse haha. Anyway, after that went to eat at fish n co. I wanted to try something other than the fish and chips, since it was so.. cliche. So I ordered some sambal whole line fish. And was wondering what species of fish was a whole line fish. When I found out that it wasn't a species but the actual whole fish. I guess that's what they meant. My goodness, it was such an ugly fish. Remind me to stick with fish and chips.

Mugged Maths P&C and bio Human transport. Finished up tutorial 40 finally... Lets hope I can keep up this hyperness...

Oh and I drew with zY in reaching 1 million meat. Haha. Now I'm gonna tone down.

Psalms 121
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Have a safe trip and come back with the Gold you two!

Second day sick
2005-07-14

Sigh, 2 days and already missing school haha. Or not. But then again I'm quite bored at home.

So what I did today. Revised bio plant transport, revised maths differential equations. And finished up the rest of bio human repro tutorial short ans qns. Read up to catch up with lectures for bio and phys.

Still quite behind for everything else. And I'm missing Paul Cheongs lectures.. argh. Oh well.. I wanted to go for chem s, but feel too tired.. I think I'll go sleep now. The medicine is making my brain drowsy.

And fainting hope almost expires
2005-07-13

So what have I done today.. Hmm.. managed to revise bio respiration and photosynthesis. Or at least what I could, cos I think my cold prevents my brain from thinking straight.

So I also finished up integration and the applications. And finished my GP package except the last article. So I feel pretty Ok.. except for the fact that I have no idea how to do chem s. I feel stupid... Anyway managed to fix up my new graphics card! Although its lousier.. geforce 2.. but oh well. Who needs a spoilt geforce 3 anyway haha. And my bro got original tft.. so I guess I can dota.

Hmmm so many nice songs don't have lyrics on the net, that's so weird. Took me so long just to find these..


When sins and fears prevailing rise
And fainting hope almost expires
Jesus to Thee I lift my eyes
To Thee I breathe my soul's desires

Are You not mine, my living Lord
And can my hope, my comfort die
Fixed on the everlasting word
That word which built the earth and sky

Jesus, I lift my eyes
To Thee I breathe my soul's desires
Jesus, I lift my eyes
To Thee I lift my eyes

Here let my faith unshaken dwell
Immovable the promise stands
Not all the powers of earth or hell
Can e'er dissolve the sacred bands
Jesus to Thee I lift my eyes

Jesus, I lift my eyes
To Thee I breathe my soul's desires
Jesus, I lift my eyes
To Thee I lift my eyes

Here oh my soul
Thy trust repose
If Jesus is forever mine

Not death itself that last of foes
Can break a union so divine

Jesus, I lift my eyes
To Thee I breathe my soul's desires
Jesus, I lift my eyes
To Thee I breathe my soul's desires

Divine intervention
2005-07-13

hmm.. i thought i had it figured out. Maybe not, 2nd time I think God has intervened. Twice I was gonna tell, twice I was stopped. Maybe there's some other way. But for now, pray like a mad donkey.

I guess I need to say this one more time. I'm not trying to enter a relationship with anyone! Stop assuming so, I will from hence forth treat every girl as sisters, and every guy as brothers.. So try not to be so afraid of me... plz...

And now I'm sick, sigh. At least I missed Gp test cos i didnt have time to read. Cos I was sick. Somehow God will pull me through and just to trust in his name. Its all I need right now.

God hears your sighs and counts your tears.
God will lift up
Lift up your head.

Mmm Sunday
2005-07-10

So it was finally Sunday. And my very favourite message. Went to church espescially to hear today's sermon on healthy boy-girl relationships. Yes, my ever so favourite topic! On BGR. hahaha.

I guess I sorted out alot of things. Thought through alot of stuff, yes and so I hope I have finally got everything sorted out properly.

I realised something I should have a long time ago. But for now no comment haha. Only for me to know. But I found the verse 1 Tim 5:2 ever so useful. Treat younger women as sisters, with absolute purity. Amen. I know what I have to do.

And also, Chien Chong the guy in charge of SYFC who was speaking, said that every relationship needs to put their priorities into perspective. In other words, God should be the main focus of it. As an analogy he gave, people only start reading books on BGR when they want to enter a relationship. That shows that their mind is on human relationships first, then next to know what God wants.

But the proper step would be to go read up on what God wants, before even considering a relationship. Again that is so true, although the analogy part is quite... hard to get at times.

And I might be bringing my Diskman to school one day. I donoe when yet. Well, when I'm finally happy again :)

My transgressions I confess,
Grief and guilt my soul oppress;
I have sinned against thy grace
And provoked thee to thy face;
I confess thy judgment just,
Speechless, I thy mercy trust.

2005-07-10

For want of a better title.

My weekend was relatively well spent. Mugging and doing homework haha. I managed to complete a few more chapters of bio, as well as differentiation for Math. Now on to integration as well as my chem transition metals homework. Bleargh.

I also spent Saturday fixing up my new bedside table which was bought from Ikea. My first time doing woodwork. How fun, I get to play with hammers and nails. Espescially fixing up the door hinge thingy. So interesting. But that's done and settled, so now I have a new bedside table

Then on Saturday night we were invited over to our neighbour's house for a barbeque. Interesting neighbourhood. Oh well that's the quirks of living in an expatriate neighbourhood I guess haha. I felt so.. important. Because everyone there were some kind of important people. Like foreign diplomats. There were people from the Canadian, Australian and even the Taiwanese Ambassy. Haha...

Wish I could be every little thing you wanted all the time.

The Unsinkable
2005-07-09

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you
I'll tell you that
But if I didn't say it
Well, I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?

Titanic was 883 feet long (1/6 of a mile), 92 feet wide and weighed 46,328 tons. She was 104 feet tall from keel to bridge, almost 35 feet of which were below the waterline... even so, she stood taller above the water than most urban buildings of the time. There were three real smoke-stacks; a fourth, dummy stack was added largely to increase the impression of her gargantuan size and power and to vent smoke from her numerous kitchens and galleys. She was the largest movable object ever made by man

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

Weather was pleasant and clear, and the water temperature was about 55 degrees. The winter of 1912 had been unusually mild, and unprecedented amounts of ice had broken loose from the arctic regions. Titanic was equipped with Marconi's new wireless telegraph system and her two Marconi operators kept the wireless room running 24 hours a day. On Sunday, April 14, the fifth day at sea, Titanic received five different ice-warnings, but the captain was not overly concerned. The ship steamed ahead at 22 knots, and the line's Managing Director J. Bruce Ismay relished the idea of arriving in New York a day ahead of schedule.

I know I left too much mess
And destruction to come back again
And I caused but nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of 'It's over'
Then I'm sure that that makes sense

By all accounts, the night was uncommonly clear and dark, moonless but faintly glowing with an incredible sky full of stars. The stars were so bright that one officer mistook the planet Jupiter (then rising just above the horizon) for a steamship light. The sea was, likewise, unusually calm and flat, "like glass" said many survivors. The lack of waves made it even more difficult to spot icebergs, since there was no telltale white water breaking at the edges of the bergs.

And when we meet
As I'm sure we will
All that was then
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on

At 11:40, a lookout in the crow's nest spotted an iceberg dead ahead. He notified the bridge and First Officer Murdoch ordered the ship turned hard to port. He signaled the engine room to reverse direction, full astern. The ship turned slightly, but it was much too large, moving much too fast, and the iceberg was much too close. 37 seconds later, the greatest maritime disaster in history began. During that night of heroism, terror and tragedy, 705 lives were saved, 1502 lives were lost, and many legends were born.

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door

and always will be

Weird day
2005-07-08

Today was a weird day. Some times I'm up, sometimes I'm down. I think I must be PMSing. At least not SMSing like zY. hehe.

But this is the not so serious part of my post anyway. I just wanted to ask a bio question. If there are 64 combinations of bases on each codon, it means that it can hold up to 64 amino acids. But we leant that there are only 20 amino acids, hence a few codons can code for 1 amino acid. I forgot the name for this. But anyway, looking at the table, it seems that all codon spaces have already been taken up somehow or other by the 20 amino acids.

So here's the question. Then what about non essential amino acids? They say that there are 20 essential amino acids, and those have been coded for, then how do non essential ones fit in? At first I thought maybe non essential Amino Acids were just that, non essential.

But it turned out that they are non essential simply due to the fact that they can be synthesized by the body from other amino acids. So the body does use non essential amino acids and they are just non essential to our diet. So how are they then coded for?

Then again after reading many websites, they seem to differ on their views. Some say there are 8 essential and 11 non essential. So umm.. nevermind.

I'll conclude with this. There are actually 11 essential A.A. and 9 non essential ones. That makes up 20 with are required for full coding. I shall stop pondering about this now.


So then we can come to the more serious part.
It seems ironic. That at Passion AC I asked God for one simple request. To make him the centre of my life, and to get my priorities straight.

And he answered by taking away all I held so dear. A lot of things that I wasn't willing to let go, he pried them away.

And isn't it ironic, don't you think?

I guess I now realise the meaning of beware of what you pray for, because God might just answer it.

It reminds me of the poem which goes, I prayed for patience, and God gave me trials. And etc etc. I hope I can use this to refocus my life and priorities now.. Only by Grace will I pull through this now.

I want you to believe in life
but I get the strangest feeling that you've gone away

I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
some times

2005-07-04

I'm going to call Dell tomorrow to fix my graphics card once and for all. Its driving me nuts with all these lines across the screen. I can turn it off but then most games wouldn't work without the 3d card.

Blah.. I feel so useless. Cos everyone is mugging. And even though I planned to start last week, I haven't done a single thing cos I ended up so busy with all the other stuff.

Especially stupid stuff like buying and selling stuff on KoL. And planning the SC map. And thinking of ATMP. I have no time left for anything else much. Sigh... I'm already so drained out at the end of first week, donoe how I'm going to survive till 8th week.

Juggling all the things of life. Life itself is wearing me down.

And I have come up with my new favourite question. Just something to ponder over.

Can it be wrong to desire to be like God?

2005-07-02

Passion AC was yesterday. I was hopinh to be rejuvenated. But perhaps I expect too much from such events. Good stuff from the organizing parties.. but I felt something missing. I was especially irritated with the photographers.

I think I was quite pissed that they were snapping photos of people's most private moments. Its like having a conversation with someone and this weird person keeps hovering around you taking your photos. Reminds me of the paparazzi.

Maybe I'm being too judgemental, that was one thing I was reminded of during passion AC. But seems like quite alot of people share my sentiments. Next time I see photographers I'm probably gonna walk out.

Bahh I can't stand it. There's just so many things to do... argh. Got no time at all. I forgot to do my chem S yesterday and forgot to bring my file too.. zzz. And I slept at 12 doing ATMP for 2 hrs. Everything is suffering, cos I have to cut back the time I spend on each. So much so that I don't even have time to revise now.

Like today, chem S till 6, by the time I got home time for dinner. Then I realised I have to do bio essay qns which she juz gave today.. and must do by tmr... I think these tchrs are mad. Next time I will hardly give homework. haha.

So ended up crapping my way through the gdr tutorial. Because I think the qns are really really very vague. And I totally didn't know how to answer. And Argh everything is suffering... So stress.. why the monkey are they still giving so much work when more should be focused on revision now.

Just not in the mood right now. I'm so so tired..

Monkeys and paradoxes
2005-06-27

Today was the first day of school, and everyone were being monkeys. Lets see, first was the birthday card, which I totally didnt get the message from Joyce till I thought long and hard. And to Robyn, Long starts with L and ends with G.

And then I realised that the present given to me in the morning had a deeper meaning. Monkey Alan and his monkeyness. I like totally didnt get it until recess lor. I thought it was one of those crap oop rubbish that you give. Like those I gave last year, or was it last last year. I guess what goes around comes around. Well thanks for the leaves anyway... I realised it works, abit, after I figured how to open it. Haha. And the 3 movement thing is how crap. But I shall blog about it some other time. But anyway, I Still want a diskman pouch.

And then came physics lecture and everyone thought I bought the plastic leaf thingy. Which I didn't. Its just that I knew how much it cost, because Alan being the monkey that he is, left the price tag on it. And not only that, he left the reciept and the 5c change in the plastic bag as well. Champion. What can I say.

Now we move on to the next section of the title. Paradoxes. So uninspired by Alan's lame Simpsons Paradox, I have decided to come up with a better one which I call the Rons Paradox. Basically you take 2 dogs... Hahaha. No thats not it. The Rons Paradox goes like this. There are 11 people in a group, now 4 of them had their birthdays and they all decided to buy 4 presents to give the 4 people. Now the total price of the presents came up to $88 and hence they split it 11 ways coming up to $8 each.

So Rons paradox goes like this. If everyone paid $8 for 4 presents, that would mean $2 per present. Now since 4 of the 11 had their birthdays, hence all 4 of them would be paying $8 as well. And so with $2 per present, that would come up to 4 presents. Which means that the 4 of them had to pay for their own presents as well. So that's Rons paradox.

Last day of holidays
2005-06-26

Sigh. Im gonna miss the hols. Haha. Oh well At least I think I've made good use of my last week. My 2nd and 3rd week was quite wasted. Actually first week also. Most of my hols were quite wasted. Haha. Yar.. wasted it doing work.

How ironic the sermon today was about work. Or somewhat about it. haha. Anyway, some nice highlights of my hols which I remember, at least the parts which I didn't feel was so wasted.

Going back to school to help out for Sputnik camp!
Gep Reunion!
Bible trail!
BBQ dinner!
band concert!
Learning Latin!
Catching up with some people :)

Oh well.. didnt manage to study with yyk, some other time then. Yup, I still remember starting to hols on a very low note. And I guess I'm quite glad to say that I've come back quite alot more. So.. I'm back! Hope it stays this way. I'm just glad I managed to be rejuvenated over the hols.

Hope term 3 is more meaningful then! So many exclamation marks! Though I think I have alot of mugging to do.

Oh yes, I paid a surprise visit to Barker. Haha.

According to nick it was a tea party. Umm ok.. haha. Well I learnt how to play mah jong.. again. Haha, I forgot everything plock taught me. Oh well... The highlight of the day was taking a group photo cos they decided to do self timing photos, with like 4 cameras. So 1 person sets all 4 cameras and runs back to the group and they go off one by one haha.

Lets see, and Kevin left his bag here. I wanted to go down to barker to pass it to him tomorrow, but it may be too late I guess. Since ill have to wake up at like 7+ Sighhh.. How am I going to carry 2 bags to school on Monday, taking bus as well.

But I guess quite few people came, and yar haha. But alan came! Yay... alk the monkey pirate. lol.

But so sad Yyk couldn't make it. But its ok, I'll study with you some other time then! You just organise and I'll try to be there :)

Graphics
2005-06-23

My graphic card drivers must have screwed up cos I had to reinstall them. Before that there were like alot of short little lines all over my screen, and if i move a window around it becomes super blur. Er, well hard to describe. Heh.

Oh dear, it seems so ironic that I'm never too satisfied with my life. On days where I have alot of things to do, I complain that there is no time to do them, and when I have nothing to do, I complain its boring. And I was so boredd... finished my phys tys mcq. Bah now I think I have to see if I have GP homework

On another note, I finished reading war of the worlds. And I never realised the ending was so stupid. So anticlimatic. haha. But HG Wells vocabulary is fantastic! And mine is not. Haha.. I don't know how some ppl just have such a wide knowledge of vocab.

But at least I managed to come up with 2 more sci related Lit questions from War of the Worlds. yay.

Foosball
2005-06-23

Haha.. just came back from zhics house where they was nice food, great company and nice table soccer games. Haha... too bad I don't have a table at home, as Plock would put it. "I have a table at home!"

I'm sleepy, but there's so much to do, the world is wide awake! Hmmm I have no idea what to do also. actually. Hm. Haha i think now I'm so familiar with the clementi - bukit timah route.. since its juz like 1 straight road all the way.

And yay!! Amos Tay! Came as well. Just wanted to make it rhyme. So nice to see amos again, though I'll see him on sunday. haha.

And I guess, I let a few people down :( Like Yongkiat, who I don't really have time to help with the quiz questions. Sorry! I wish I could talk to you more though... sigh. And Lifeng.. haven't been able to talk properly to you for a long time too.. =( I hope you aren't stressed out too much by all the council planning and chem o and Passion AC. Salut. Sigh.. haven't been able to have a proper convo with so many people...

Busy times
2005-06-22

Blahh.. So busy. Wanted to blog in the morning but as usual diaryland was down. But at least it doesnt eat up my entries.

Well yesterday went to marina to have dinner with the scones. And my it was a lovely dinner. Haha dinner with scones. Should be more like tea with scones. Ok anywayy... we had bbq and steamboat. Though i wasn't really full, my stomach started acting up again so I decided to put the stuff away for health's sake.

So nice watching Plock constantly comment on why are we standing up, and saying that so many times. Watching lifeng live up to her reputation by coming back time and time again with plates of veges. But of course our pot was far from hers and became the carnivores table. Haha.. so much meat. And we got to talk alot to ms Tang as well. Bye madam! have fun in the USA.

Oh and watching Jish bully poor channy into constantly opening her crayfish. Hahaha.. And yyk the food expert :) Too bad I only had the usual fare of beef and chicken. And some really hot chillies which i added. haha. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for jokes. Some things should best remain hidden since ignorance is bliss.

But yar.. just managing to talk once more gives me great pleasure. :) And today was so busy, woke up at 10, bah I regret waking up so late. I have to squeeze in ATMP which is still half done, hw etc etc. And now have to rush of for GEP reunion at zhics house.

Sighhh

Some stuff I learnt
2005-06-20

Jonathans lesson on Jesus teaching Nicodemus was quite good, best I've seen him teach so far... of course i think its the only one ive seen him teach. Jesus is really pro, I mean duh! haha... Ok I shall summarise his lesson or at least the part i remember the most.

Since Nicodemus came at night, and said that he believed that only God could do such miracles which Jesus did. And right before Jesus said that he would rebuild the temple in 3 days which really pissed the Sanhedrin off. Yeah so most probably he was scared of being seen by the rest, and yet Jesus countered it.

John 3

19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God

In one sense he is talking about evil while in another he is talking about Nicodemus being scared of being seen during the day. Interesting.

And also in my QT. Saul was picked as king, and Samuel had an easy time seeing why as Saul stood a head taller than the rest. Interesting ppl in the past used to look at all these physical aspects of a person, thats why Samuel couldn't believe it when God finally picked David for king. Such a small boy!

Its also interesting that Saul was very humble at the start as well. He said that his clan was the smallest of all Benjamin, which was already the smallest tribe, like Ben hooi. haha. But yet, his father was a man of standing. Hmm..

Yes much interesting stuff.. too many thoughts to write in such a small space. Cos I have no time to write, must help yyk with Sci qns.

Nightmare
2005-06-20

Yawnn.. I'm still feeling so sleepy after sleeping for about 9 hrs. I think its because I had a nightmare last night. Sooo scary...

It's not the kind of zombies and ghoulies chasing you nightmare, but one which was... far worse. I think I have just experienced the worse feeling ever... the despair, grief and sorrow was intense. I was glad when I realised it was just a dream. Strangely I think that dreams are the best place to role play certain events, how you would respond and what you would think. Since all your reactions would be instinctive and unadulterated by any theories which you can cook up in your head. It's one thing to say that if such and such a situation happens, I'll do this and this. But when it really occurs... like in your dream, I think the response might be much different.

And also, somehow no matter how bizarre and ridiculously absurd your dream is, you always tend to believe it. As such it can come up with situations you normally wouldn't believe in your mind, but in a dream, it is nice to see one's own reaction. I think if you can ask yourself, Am I dreaming? Then it's probably not a dream.

But as for my nightmare, no, im not going to tell you what it was. Haha. So anticlimax. Cos it involves some personal stuff which I dont wish to comment on anymore. But as for now, I think I have gone away learning a good lesson.

I'm still shivering to think of it

We are very concerned
2005-06-19

I rather the title be We're very concerned but unfortunately haloscan coding doesn't recognise "'" yar.. '''' that stuff.

But I just watched A series of Unfortunate Events on DVD. I must say it is quite well done. Lemony Snickets is pro.. Lets see if H2G2 can match up, or maybe HG Wells. But beautifully done anyway if I may add.

As for Latin lessons, well.. I'm just done with the first declension and now I'm moving on to the Second or O' declension. Bah.. and there are 5 Declensions! I'll never get this done at this rate.. oh well.. At least I understand basic latin now. As long as I have a translator on hand haha.. cos the vocab part is the hardest. Grammar wise its quite easy.

O yes. And happy father's day, really this time... Haha... But don't worry Today is Son day is well. Hahahaha...

Band concert
2005-06-17

Yesterday was band concert. And it was quite good, cos of Yongkiat the band pro! haha... the percussionists were not bad as well during their section, playing all kinds of weird songs. Haha.. and the entertainment came from Christine who seemed to laugh at everything. Especially when you ask her, "how is denise coming?"

And also Christine was trying to guess what GR was in GR selection. Like Great Rhinocerous (sp?) and stuff like that. But it turned out to be Giant Robot. Hahaha... And yongkiat was so cute bobbing up and down like he was playing the sax or something.

O and the other highlight of the day was none other than Christine and Zy, the most compatible couple I have ever seen. One is the gossip queen the other the gossip king. And when they come together to gossip about each other... hahaha... Oh and Denise came down once in a while with her extremely-shocking-normal-looking hairstyle. And we also made this shocking discovery thanks to Denise...

Denise to Zhongyan: "I have NEVER seen you wearing PANTS outside of school before!"

So now the truth is out.

Hello Goodbye, I wanted to say, but I guess I couldn't find the strength to speak last night
