Button is pressed


Hehe... Took this while in the library in the afternoon.
Supposed to go play pool tomorrow afternoon, but after some chatting with eugene and jean, decided to study instead. Since the mood is kicking in, should just carry on and not let the steam run out. That's precisely why I prefer to study in a grp.
Tired. Just pure tired.
18days to go..

Thots

Finally the last prac of this sem is over. No more prac for the time being. Not that I don't like Lab that much, but its time consuming, and the lab report after that is a chore. Just one last lab report to do for the week. If only there's no lab report, I would gladly take up more of it .. Time just flies during lab session, and its definitely more interesting than sitting in the LT.

Tried adding back Bijie, as I've deleted her contact some time ago, but for the past 2 weeks, it has not being accepted. 2 possibility, 1. she found out that I deleted it off, and didn't want me back on the list, 2. she didn't come online for the past 2 weeks, or I've not caught her online so far. The second seems more unlikely, cos I'm online most of the time. Anyway, I've gotten over all the things that has happened, and ready to be friends with her again. If she chooses not to, I can't do anything either. I'll just take it as she hasn't seen it so far... Life just changes along the way. heard from fren that her current R/s isn't doing well. Oh well..

Decided to stay phantom for the rest of my 3-4 yrs in Uni. Won't be taking up any comm post, or impt project. perhaps is a sign of me trying to shake off any responsibility, or I'm getting tired from all the previous post. To think back, i've gone thru quite a bit. Let me try recapping and listing it down.
Many Trivial post though..
P1 - Group leader
P2 - Av Rep
P3 - Assist Monitor
P4 - Monitor
P5 - Prefect
P6 - Bball capt.

Sec 1 - Nth
Sec 2 - Lower Sec CO Rep
Sec 3 - Chairman
Sec 4 - Chairman/ Head of Concert

J1 - CT rep/ Strategy Games President
J2 - Canoeing Physical Trainer

Army - OCS , Platoon commander,

NS - Coy 2IC

NUS - SLACK!!!

Many are trival, but its part and parcel of what makes the current me. Many ppl try to take up post in Uni, but I choose the opposite. Its been a hectic life so far.. Its time to take a break...

Suai Day

What a suai day today. Things didn't start well from the beginning of the day. First, woke up a bit later than usual, causing me to miss the 6.40am train, The train just left when I reach the platform.. ARhz.. Then spilt the tea while holding it in my bag, causing my bk to be a little soiled. Sianz 1/2. And while buying dinner, I mis handled the tray and it toppled over, Dirtying my clothes. and half the plate of food were gonez.. Only left 1 dumpling, 2 slices of pork rib and the noodles.. So sadz..

And while going home, encounter with jam too.. What a way to end the day...

The only positive thing was that studied quite a bit today. Though still not good at doing it, at least managed to catch up a lot. in the lib from 1pm till 10pm. Tomorrow will be another long day. Exams are getting freaking near...

First paper : 20 days !!!! The 2 is going to disappear.. Oh no...

And I'm stopping Bridge for the time being .. ( as advice by Jean ). Take the time to study instead.

With regards to the trip in dec, I guess it'll really be an exciting trip. Cos I can't get any tickets from here.. They don't accept any international credit cards.. due to the increase in fraud.. WTH... And sending them an email requesting for alternative way was useless, cos they copy and paste for me the thing on the website & advice me to get a relative or friend in India to help me make the purchase. WoW.. How helpful.. !!!! Kns.. What rubbish. Waste my time sending email to them. So I've decided to not be bothered about it, and since I'm heading there alone, the time is for me to play, I'll just go there and take transport from place to place. Adds thrill to the trip, as I've freaking no clue how to do it.. So if I'm not back by 1st Jan, Ppl.. you will know where to find me... 22 days in a foreign land, hmm... longer than the first paper that's approaching.. ( faintz ) ...

Leg Chui + Near Accident

Met Ks in the morning.. Supposed to go running de.. but my left knee was giving me extreme pain till I can't move my leg without pain. No idea what happened, but it started a few days ago. Think my ligament is a little swollen. While walking up and down the stairs in Orchard, was walking with a slight limp. Haiz.. how to run SCSM in 30 days time. Jia Lat...

Usual Studying on sunday, glad that I managed to finish what I set out for today.

Took some photos with my pool peeps. =)

Jeanie n the botak me..


Hui Min


Went home on Eugene's car after that.. The rain was horrendous. Visibility on the road was really terrible. Perhaps 25m ? While on the way back, travelling along PIE, saw a chain of cars which got into accident... If I counted correctly, there were 8 cars my the shoulder of the road. Luckily it didn't look that serious. AND we almost got into accident ourselves!!! The heavy rain caused flash flood to occur and while travelling across the water, the car just suddenly slow down, That almost cause the car that was following us to crash. It was really DARN close. I could see the head lights so bright by the side mirror. Phew!!! gave us a scare. We were both stunned for a moment before saying at the same time.. " Wa .. Chao Heng.. "

Really a close shave from accident. That's why I hate driving on rainy days. Reminds me of the first accident I got.. In the rain as well ... Arhz..

OSIM corporate Tri

Went to East coast park in the morning to support Ben taking part in the Sprint distance, also to lend Yan ming my bike. This race is non-comparable to the OSIM tri itself. Not as competitive and its more of a ' lower division '. Wasn't that exciting actually. Just there to support friends. Cos I realise the presence of friends supporting, is really important, as it does help to keep them going stronger.

Got bored watching the race.. So took some photo with Ashley. I just simply love taking photos. =p



Trip to Zoo

Went to the Zoo just now, as part of the practical scheduled for Biodiversity module. It's one of the most fun module to have taken this sem, due to all its interesting practical session. Prior to going to the Zoo, I went to the Raffles museum to take a look at some of the specimens, and I re-confirmed my fav to be the Crabs. Both in terms of Food and Biology research wise. Perhaps I may want to specialise in Crabs next time. Still thinking about the possibility on it.


The SENTINEL crab. Those who play DOTA should know.. wahaha..


The Soldier Crab.. Damn tiny and cute.. ( about the size of an eraser )


Moon crab. A pretty nice looking crab, First time I've seen it.

Anyway, The trip to the zoo was very very rush. TAs had to rush through the things that we need to know for the CA at the end of the prac. So as usual, Its information heavy, since we need to listen and memorise a lot along the way.

One of my fav too. the Tortise.


The slowest moving mammals. The Sloth, it is just so sloooowwww.

Anyway, it was far too rush for me to enjoy the trip there. Didn't really see all the things. Would have preferred it to be longer, though timing doesn't allow.. Nevermind, I'll make my way down to the zoo again, Perhaps after the exam, when time permits.



Saw this figuring, and I decided that it couldn't be miss. So took a photo as well. Those who frequent Orchard will know where is it. It's actually in TAKA lvl 1 itself. Just look so naive and sweet. That feeling has not been felt for such a long time.
played pool with lynal at Monster cue for 3hrs, 10pm till 1.15am. it's expensive there man.. Felt the burning sensation in my pocket when paying for the table. Arhz...

Thurs again .. Pool. Yeah..

Just came back home.. after 2 days out and a fun filling session of pool. The past 2 days had been effective. Now is time to come back to rest a bit. before continuing on weekend.

Though there wasn't any formal training for pool today, but a few of us still went down as usual. Good thing was that, there were 8 of us, 4 tables, so no need to wait at all. wahah.. I just don't like to wait for too long. So this is perfect. non stop action. Shiok.. Played better towards the back, was using Kenneth's Cue and I kinda like the feel of it. Still trying to correct my own strokes at the moment. Hope to improve more as I pick up new skills from my kakis.

Feels good to be myself whenever I'm playing pool with them. The laughter and fun never fails to relief the stress that is piling up. Glad that I made the right choice to join the club.
