ouch.

Harlow!

gonna keep this post real short using point form.

• i strained my back due to a very ambitious aim of 12 times on(technically under) the 30kg barbell.
• i haven done my comms blog for this week, thinking of what to write, no inspiration due to the next post.
• ACCOUNTING MID-TERMS IS AT NIGHT TOMORROW NIGHT! afraid that the morning person me won't do well (on top of me being so blur with accounting).
• a few days back, Perry is named 'strawberry' by me!! start calling him that ya? and i found out he is sensible in a way or two. *wowwww*
• Chiong-ing UGC project tmr after the acctg mid-term. procrastinator yu jun hasn't done any research yet. -.-
• i'm sore, but then i can't be sorry for myself.
• you might be thinking, "wa, he has a mid-term tmr, at this time still dun sleep here to blog, seow one." --- well, i dunno why i had the sudden urge to blog as well, maybe i am emotionally(majority fear and anxiety) challenged. who knows?
• so gonna get some rest now.
• Night!

YuJun.

a translation of a Chinese quote from Danny Ho Kar Wai, "my love for you is meant for you to be the sole audience, not for others to regard it as a performance." oh well, so true.

school life rocks.

harlow pple!

in the midst of boring school life going abt, i'm here to share a video with you guys (and gals).


*credits to belson for the link

hmm, although school life is mundane and boring to a certain extend, it seem to especially entertaining today. well, i have the funny videos like the one above to entertain myself, and it is a distraction that i truly enjoy, while forgetting the pent-up and mixed feelings of NS. hmm, i would like to serve the country and enjoy the 2 years of hardship and enjoyment with a bunch of other strangers as a typical Singaporean, however, i realised today that there are certain things i can't let go now. (it sounds like i am dead and can't leave my family and loads of other 'important' stuff right now, hahas for that).

hmm, a few things i can't let go.

1) my studies: i'm kinda worried that my brain might turn even more retard after almost 2 years without touching the syllabus and books. on a brighter tone, my thinking will be more matured and one day get really really good grades. (as if that will happen -.- , i keep telling myself)

2) ZingO performances: well, there's like 3 major breakthrough performances this year, and if i get enlisted too early this year, then i might actually have to miss 2 of these performance. on top of the glory and sense of achievement that i might get from these performances, i actually have a more tangible motivation for the desire to perform at these performances. i want to do these major performances with my "drum cum scouts mates" A.K.A 12 zodiacs(actually 10 left in the performing crew). erm, i might be thinking too much and overestimating my existence in ZingO, but then i see it in a way that the performing crew is shorthanded and the substitutes(if there is) may not be so 'gumm'(on the same frequencies/easy to work with) compared to me. i want to perform for them, and perform for ZingO.

3) ZingO manpower,the time is not ripe yet: just heard from teck wee that Xjw and Djw will be out of NS in March and June next year. so i want to pull through this year so as long to pass YYSS, all the other duties to the right people to do the job, since most of us ZingO pple are near to maximum mobilisation, without teck we,, edvwin, and Zi Ming having to study yet.

yea, that's pretty much of me, looking myself in a light greater than it actually is, overestimating my self-worth. well, idols of the tribe. everyone does that at some points of their lives and this is one of mine.

ok, got to blog at my other blog that is part of the requirement of my Communication course.

till next time then.

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

Harlow!

haven been touching my blog for sometime, sorry abt that. when you are busy with the same few stuff that doesn't require you to use the computer cum Internet, you kinda forget that you have a laptop with good connection at home and you neglect your blog and so on so forth. but that won't happen for maybe until April. well, at least i think and hope i have time for both of my blogs, since i have to create a blog on wordpress for my new course, COM101's assignment, and that is to have a communication blog. well, i will come back to the communication blog again later.

from the last post, 5th Jan, til now, more or less 2 weeks, i have been doing 3 main activities; running as a form of exercise, working for my dad and lastly sleeping when i have the time. occasionally, i would go shopping for my new year clothes and maybe help out at a few (the third by tomorrow) CCA orientations at the various schools with festive drums. well, that's kinda boring but then i guess that's pretty much of my holidays. yea, so if you were interested with my holiday life, that's pretty much it.

today is the first day of school , well, i met with 3 of my lecturers and i can say they are pretty different from the previous lecturers, but then, who is completely in this world. out of the 3, 2 of them are from the States and for some weird reasons, maybe they practised hypnotism or really good at monotone speaking, the class environment was kinda like a graveyard with the only priest holding the ceremony, reading the names out from a list. on the perspective that i like quiet studying environment, i might survive the grave studying atmosphere after all. haha.

went to Vivo to get my CNY shopping done, now left with only the shoes. well, gonna get a cheap pair from the nearest BATA store or some lace like that. well, it's not me to get a pair of $100++ leather shoe that i am gg to crack it and soil it with dirt. maybe not now when my income is my allowance. hmm, i spent a lot already, hence, closing the shopping spreed soon.

ok, i'm pretty much tired with everything today, so sleep time. *haha, no school tmr, but then need to get started with my readings anyway. so tmr is gonna be running/working-out and reading day!!

Harlow!

this pic, is what happens when you and your sister start to play some childhood(childish) games. remember those bubbles you blow, from a tube, and it won't burst to touch, and you smash it into others face when you are done blowing? yea, that's more of less what is over my head!! for a moment, i felt like the bubble head.

anyway, my muscles are aching still from the weekend training, hopefully, i am maintain this training routine. try my best lar. Sat's training was the start of many things, it was the start of Jan, start of ZingO membership fee collection (you peeps, better bring the money on sat), start of attendance taking, start of Danny's ZingO path and the start of the 6 hour ZingO weekly training. hmm, great start for us heh? haha.

training was like, tough? long hours and physically and mentally demanding. but got to tell myself 4 words and it will be all okay sooner or later, "get used to it." this might be the best advice ever, or the worst. haha.

highlight of the day was the Japanese drum group that performed on the same stage with CCHY. woohoo, the spirit and aura of theirs truly stuns the audience. awesome job, just got to remember their impact on me the next time i go for any performance.

to end off this post, just wanna say that as a friend, being ranked after a gal feels lousy.either that, or i am just thinking too much, hoping too much. nvm that. it's most probably me, and i got to change.

ps, happy birthday puiyee!

woohoo! new year!

harlow! (using a different opening to mark the new year.)

blogging on the 1st of JAN, which marks my blog's 1st birthday. haha, to think that Nas is 18th already and 2 more days till PY turns 18 years old as well. haha, amazing isn't it, pple call it growing up. poops, all the bubbles of memorable teenage years are gonna float away and then come life. but then there's the other extreme end of birthdays ,those who just turned 17th. well, live life to the fullest,cause time changes everything.

yesterday is the last day of the year 2007, and countdown at Zhen's place isn't really your roller-coaster ride kind of exciting but at least it felt warm. it was just a simple chit chat, playing cards (damn hong yew for winning 'dai dee' EIGHT rounds in a row, until kai xin stopped his lucky streak) and looking at the computer screen for the 10 sec countdown. noting here that Zhen got a fabulous room with the best sound system i ever heard. boopers, i'm kinda envious, next time go steal. haha. joking.

then i was reflecting on the 'special' new year eve. hmm, was questioning myself throughout the evening; why is it that we make such a fuss over this day and behave differently from how we would normally. enjoyment? or rather is it to run away from the 'serious' work we faced during the entire last year? to sum up this syndrome, can i call it festive mood? everyone is happy abt festive mood, i should, but then i only had one foot beyond the line separating normal and festive mood. hmm, maybe i need a pull from the other self,seeing how couples behave.HAH. from my cousin in law, "for two pple to be together is hard due to different upbringing. for two families to be together, that harder." ok, that was random.

this festive mood arise expectation, expecting your other half to ask you out, your friends to countdown with you, your expectation to see the fireworks while being squeezed as well as squeezing others and the expectation of not returning home so early, but you still did. who sets the time as late you think?

haha, great expectation for year 2008!! woohoo. off to work already.

bye bye.
