not the first, you're the last. i have been thinking about the races i had in life. i have came in first once, in the rest, i was last.
this holiday has been a blast. i have traveled to indonesia, where i suffered mosquito bites tremendously. i have also traveled to genting again, where i had fun again! this time with a whole new group of people. interesting and fun.
played rides like the space shot. which i have conquered again. :)) i also played the superman ride which requires you to lie down mimicking the normal roller coaster. but this time face first. so it was totally a blast. especially when it was going at a promotional price. normally, it was going at RM$10 for 1 ride. Because we had this unlimited pass thing, the ride was, RM$10 for 5 consecutive rides. At least to us, the ride was super worth it. We managed to clear the theme park in 2 hours. after which, the theme park closed for the day.
Seriously, i would give anything to have those days b ack. fun, and no stress, no burdens.
went to malaysia last thursday again. some how i feel that malaysia is starting to run in my blood, i can never seem to stop talking about malaysia. well, i went in, city square. got a haircut again, and watched super cheap shows, RM$6, RM$3 for a popcorn combo. where in singapore can you find something like that? the cheapest that i know of now is $5-6 and the cinema isn't comfortable. unlike MALAYSIA's one. another "malaysia" that i have mentioned.
sentosa last friday with both my nokia friends and frisbee friends were a blast.
we had a small pick up against some other team, and thrashed them big time. but actually they were playing it for the first time. :))
i went for the ride that lets you sit of this small cart and lets you roll down the hill. the speed was awesome. and i loved it. when ever there's a turn, you should slow down, when i was passing the circuit, i saw this lady who somehow did not slow down and crashed into the safety barrier. I couldn't help but laugh. Yes i'm mean, but look at it this way. the bend is a big bend and yet. shouldn't say more.
this coming sat! Ultimate frisbee friendly pickup against SMU. i cant wait. its a challenge that i don't expect to be last in.
school reopens tomorrow. i like the sound of it. but then, hello exams.

Help. I'm in macdonalds. I'm here everyday. Studying. The prices of the drinks and food are super expensive. And the worst part, the food makes me very tired. So much for active lifestyle. Who will even be in the mood to exercise after a meal of macdonalds.

i cried today. this show on hbo made me cry.
i have totally no idea why, but the story line was fantastic.
and i have totally no idea whats the name of the show.
i crept out of bed today, being late for study session with yos and wee kwan.
i met yos at bukit batok for lunch. mixed vegetable rice, that's what they call it.
we then left to macdonald's to study, we studied for about, 4 hours.
although i didn't feel right cause we usually study for 6-7 hours.
but this terrible headache sank in. it has not been the first time.
but it always happen after thinking too much on something. stress?
we left with wee kwan who sprained his wrist, thumb some 1-2 months ago but only decided to fix it yesterday.
he was moaning about how weak his fingers felt.
even with that, yos and i dragged him to a nearby cyber cafe located at jurong entertainment centre.
we played 2 hours of warcraft. we had a good laugh, and that definitely made me feel better.
went for dinner at the new food court. had korean food. some bibimiba rice thing, it had egg yolk, bean sprouts, vegetables, carrots.
you have to mix it up, and tah da. you will get this messy meal. but it is one of my favorite korean food, other than kimchi.
was really happy with the meal, other than the bean sprouts, they gave me the full bean sprouts even with the bean, which usually should be removed, and, from some mother saying, if you eat too much of the bean, you will be more prone to cancer.
i have no idea whether the saying was actually true or not, but at least i removed it. call me picky but what if its true?
went to the arcade after some persuasion from yos. we played the new game, time crisis 4, i totally sucked at it. but well, i tried.
we played another shooting game, some combat game, and again i sucked at it. but well, i tried too!
left home after that, it was a long, and warm journey in the overcrowded train.
it got really empty after choa chu kang. which was good, cause i never liked crowds.
reached home only about 30 minutes later, having to see my mum watching tv, and i joined in. watching till 2 am.
crazy. tv, media. such marvelous creations. wouldn't you love it?
at 2 am, the exam fever crashed in again. i was feeling all lethargic again, i didn't want to move, i didn't want to talk, i didn't want to think.
i just wanted to study, i have to pass. i will pass. i will.
there was a frisbee pick up game today. i was dying to go. i was really hoping to play. to throw that disc.
exams, grrr.
ultimate frisbee.
i'm super excited in the month of september.
i'll be attempting to run 10 km once every 2 days.
i want to be trim.
i want to be trim.
and i'm going to indonesia with yos and wee kwan, we will be on a field trip, organized by yos!
3 days and 2 nights. i expect to do lots of shopping, sight seeing, and fun.
yos have been talking about how we're getting around, our accommodation, the food, the life there and the mozzies.
i really cannot wait.
and from september, i can finally apply for the driving license.
which is another thing that i am anticipating really badly. i can't wait to have my hands on my dad's car.
i miss my dad, he's on a work trip. only be back on sunday.
he has been away since, wednesday morning.
i really miss his jokes, his smile and his services! (keeping the place clean and organized)
oh, and i visited this mini-melts vending machine.
if you ever walk pass the machine, i reckon you take
S$ 2 and get a ice-cream.
the technology used to get the ice-cream out from the freezer and passing it to you is really fascinating.
i know i sound like a small 2 year old. but i just like seeing things work.
and the ice-scream is not those super hard ice-cream, the temperature is just right, hence making the ice-cream's texture just right too.
so i reckon you should try the machine soon.
have you watched the gauntlets on mtv?
you should watch. the guys are super muscular, not all but the majority.
i was even drooling at their perfectly chiseled chests and abs, so spend some time in front of the tv if your parents allow.
you must be also wondering why i'm blogging so late.
i couldn't sleep. i was thinking about so many things.
from friends, family to school, to work.
all i hope is that you listen,
on and on,
some thing is wrong,
nothing to hold on to,
use these words to lead you on,
just listen.

what supposed to start well didnt really start well.
not well.
studied yet again. with the same friend. after only less then 12 hours.
this time at a new location.
half an hour into studying, manager came.
birthday party, taking up entire level.
"i'm afraid u have to leave in 15minutes."
bad start.
reached king albert park,
crowded. super crowded.
and there was a party, this time, employee party.
luckily it was in an enclosed room.
but that didnt make any difference,
the entire level was either filled with secondary or junior college students.
from what i saw, they were also mugging for their respective papers.
dilligent but not so dilligent. everyone was chatting, including me.
studied, yes, 3 chapters.
bad middle start.
left for dinner at the market. which has seemed to become a routine.
the entire place was filled.
shared the seat, with a old lady that was young at heart. cheerful lady.
walked the entire market.
looking at the standard of cooking and preparations and presentation.
all turned me off, real bad.
only 2 stalls made me think twice, the fish porridge, keuy.
fish porridge, i dont know how they did it, but the fish is ever so tender, smooth and delicious.
keuy, i again dont know how they did it, but the seasoning is something i could die for.
whats the best thing to finish with all that food?
sugarcane juice. that green juice. slurp.
not so bad middle middle start.
yos decided to play some pool at the nearby pool centre.
and of course, i was in the mood, i joined him.
played 6 rounds.
won 3 rounds, and lost the other few.
i personally felt, we both totally had no pool ball sense.
but the thing at the end, we had fun. quite a good laugh as well.
i was irritated by the cashier who doesnt even bother giving you the welcome look.
so much for "smile 2006".
left to the BUS STOP.
waited for 30 minutes.
this time i beared with the pain that was killing me.
i beared with everything.
at least i tried.
and i survived.
bad day.
watched community shield,
chelsea vs liverpool.
liverpool won.
yasmin was over the moon, hence she should be able to pass those papers she have tomorrow.
chelsea lost, i'm not a fan, but they should have punished liverpool.
bad bad bad day.
grills.
picture yourself having gills.
picture yourself swimming with gills.
picture yourself breathing with gills.
picture yourself being grilled.
grills.
fish fish fishy.
i nearly lost this blog entry, blogger went bonkers.

buses. what would you describe them. i would say, they are worser than worsest.
they promised comfort, and how happy you can be when taking the transport.
but do you think you get that?
everytime i take the bus, i get splinting headaches, WHY? the air-con is at the minimal, the bus keeps jerking, the bus seats are cramped, the lightings are dim, the bus is noisy due to engine noise.
Yes, i know its the public transport, i know the conditions are less than ideal in the 3rd world countries. But, i'm living in the first world, the transport companies self pro-claim how good it is to take the journey with them.
i took the miserable 1 hour bus ride to study at bt timah, tough, thats excluding the time going home. so i guess you should pretty much figure out why i'm so blardy pissed.
Buses.
Studied for 6 hours, ate 2 meals. fattening i reckon.
Left for dinner at the nearby market. yes, fattening.
and that sparked the tummy upset.
relieved my self at home, and nearly wiping out my entire family.
coming to think of it. i really cant help but laugh when i see their faces.
i think i just made cha lin, super in love with malaysia.
she went in today again, for, karaoke? she was boasting how cheap it was.
whats getting me on my nerves is that i havent heard from her since 12 noon?
say i think too much, but she's my friend!
so cha lin, if you ever happen to read this, text me.
cause i dont want your mum to kill me.
twisting and turning.
cables, thats whats constantly in my mind.
is it a kind of sign?
or probably its just another kind.
i'll start thinking, all over, and i think this actually rhyme.
but, cables are still in my mind.
twisting and turning.
cheers,
to cheaper beer.

Lean back and try running. I wouldnt say its easy.
Everything goes past so fast. 1 day, 1 minute, 1 hour.
Will running backwards help slow things down? how i wish things could just slowly fly by.
But theres nothing i want more.
Malaysia, went there again, never seems to stop entertaining me, but i guess, its the company.
Malaysia, i just love the cheap food, while others simply love the shopping.
I went with cute, adorable chalin and yos. Just realised how much a shopping fantic they both are.
damn, i really only can sumarize my entire day in a few words. i loved the food. and of course the company.
*smiles*
i looked you in the eyes, sweet.
