ever since sy + pals , leo + pals n other have been gone ... i thot sch will b boring ... realli boring without them ... but sy told me tt I will make more frenzs since I am sociable ... donno how true is tt ... but den lectures haven been tt boring ... have been hanging up with Eugene, serene , clement + pals ... Monday morning i have Stella n Guo Bao ... so it has been gd so far ... plus with Eugene n pple ard ... it easier to force myself to studi ... so I have working hard ... tuesday was realli taxing ... 6 hrs of lecture ... i knew i was realli tired after it ... but aniwae it's movie time at nite ... watched farenheit 911 ... donno how much of the documentary is true ... but it's alway nice to watch movie with Kian Leng ... he got a nice personality ... cycled back home in the fastest possible time

whoa ... it has been a whopping 12 days since my last entry ... well since my laptop was spoilt it has been harder for me to access the comp ... spend less time on the comp which is nt necessarily a bad ting i supposed ... sometime i spent too much time surfing nonsense n stuff ... sometime spent too much stuff surfing news/info. abt Arsenal especially during August when rumours has it tt our beloved captain Patrick Viera will b leaving the club ... so log on almost every morning ... trying to chk, hoping tt tis is nt true ... hoping tt the CAPTAIN will stay at the club ... aniwae Arsenal is like a part of my life i supposed ... followed almost all soccer news related to Arsenal ... after my family and friend ... Arsenal ranked third in my priority ... a bit crazy .... a bit shocking if those pple who donno much abt me read abt it ... nothing surprising for my close frenzs ... at home I have Arsenal towel ... n juz on my table there r Arsenal stuff ... lotsa of posters except haven find a decent plc to put it ... Kian Leng wan me to take the puzzle we have completed together ... but guess there realli nt much plc to put now ... room is in a mess... as usual the oni plc which is tidy is my desk ... it's super demoralising to studi in an untidy table ... i juz simply don study ... aniwae was with Rachel + zhihao at suntec when I first returned to Singapore ... saw a realli nice Winnie the Pooh puzzle but it cld be realli hard to piece up all the puzzle ... every piece looked the same ... but it worth the trouble ... if u loved sth ... anything is worth the trouble ... I supposed so.

National day is alreadi over ... how time flies ... tis yr it seemed watching firework is THE ting .... everyone in my family went except me ... National Day Eve I was catching a film with Kian Leng and on National day went lunch with my family ... have seafood for lunch ... long time nvr have such a luxury ... aniwae I supposed gd tings come together ... n conversely SHIT oso arrived in the bulk ... it alwae lidat ... which I guess made LIFE the more exciting ... i tink my SHIT has gone over so tis wk shd b the good life ... aniwae after having lunch with my family went GIANT n shop ... alwae enjoyed shopping grocery with my family ... alwae so much fun except tt I seldom at home ... n everyone seldom SO FREE ... but it was pure fun .... when i reached back home ... realli got too lazy, juz realli wished to sleep , to ROT n ROT till dinner time but remember my mtg with my frenzs den they called me n asked me to come now by HOOK or by CROOK ... but IT WAS NVR a MISTAKE to go down ... shopping with Cheehong was nvr a mistake ... my buddy when I need to SHOP with a MISSION ... dick is my buddy when I liked to juz window shop, gossip abt stuff ... bought the clothes we wanted ... ate dinner it was quite late .... the first time I celebrate National Day by SHOPPING ... guess I was sick seeing a couple of fireworks in Europe ... sometime TOO MUCH OF A GD ting is NVR good ... it takes the freshness away.

first day for sch was LIDAT lor ... realli LIDAT ... i missed attending lecture with Sy, CH n RZ ... everyone gone ... used to have a decent bit of fun attending lecture together ... of cuz i wasn't listening ... alwae late ... nvr bring lecture note ... realli not a favourite student ... pissed my ecology tutor during yr 1 ... guessed she tolerated me for a while (cuz i'm so cute for one to scold ... haha) but on the last day she tekam me ... but she din succeed haha ... I'm the Veteran ... aniwae it was a bit hard ... for someone who nvr listened to lesson to suddenly try to b a gd student again ... the word is TRY n I have made a complete change ... becuz I don wan to be other pple "STEPPING" stone to success ... but i have been so tired each day ... becuz i have nvr realli worked hard but every thursday having lecture at arts is a relaxant ... A TONIC to the soul ... one get young again =)

gonna go down ...

now i starting to recover from my illness ... the food poisioning + the headache which has been bothering me the past few days ... it feels rather gud to feel healthy again.... but yst I wasn't able to sleep well ... in fact couldn't sleep till earli morning ... it was a torture lying in bed ... hoping to sleep ... but juz can't sleep ... tink still adapting back to Singapore weather n the lifestyle ... perhaps tt's why I got sick ... the hot weather make me realli lethargic and I seemed to be procrasting my stuff ... but these days I'm most efficient at doing things unlike last year ... starting to be more efficient ... which is a gud sign.

... has been working on my website for an hour or so in the morning ... seemed like there so much to do ... n even more to make your webpage popular ... now i haven't been getting enuff visitors ... so I supposed I need to do much more ... I supposed if I can shake away my procrastination ... everything is possible ... perhaps less is more ... so I should take part in fewer activities so that I can finish my works on hand

... gabriel dropped by yst ... have a nice chat ... it has been quite a while since we met ... we used to call each other n chat for quite a while ... but ever since I got my handphone I have stopped trying to call pple when i'm at home ... aniwae we went thru my holiday fotos .... guess I shd start writing descriptions beside the fotos becuz I was getting a bit like tired ... saying the same things again n again ... later gonna meet eddy ... he went to Sweden before I go, one semester ago, cld be nice to talk abt tings. if my health improved ... I wld b keen to meet abel tonight ... but most important of all ... I shldn't b feeling tired ... guess the illness is still affecting me ... so rest is in my top priority.

was talking to my exchange frenzs yst ... Rachel n zhihao ... kinda remind of the fun times back in Sweden ... over here back in Singapore ... it's realli nt tt bad ... except life is more bz ... in Sweden the pace is perfect ... except one has to adapt and change your lifestyle ... Bjorn ... my swedish frenz will b coming to Singapore soon .... but haven plan my itinerary for him ... i juz hope i got enuff time .... though realli , seriously, honestly I knew I will never have the time ... i shd just stay up late one nite n plan the whole tingthe weather hasn't been all tt great to talk abt ... met a korean movie enthusiast yst n she told me tt tis yr it rain quite a lot ... pity I won't b able to get the tan ... but aniwae don realli care tt much abt tan anymore

yst as I was lying on my bed n juz can't get to sleep ... i was hopelessly tinkin abt whether Arsenal captain Patrick Viera will be leaving ... it sounds stupid but it's one of the ting that I kept tinking abt ... my module bidding n registration was coupled with a few difficulties ... but the funny ting abt the whole ting is tt I nvr worried abt it n tings juz get settled surely n quickly ...

tis the last week b4 sch reopens ... mabbe i shd look forward to sch reopens ... actualli not realli ... no special feeling ... i juz live by the day ... enjoying the moment n it has served me well so far ... haven get enuff $$$ these days but $$$ will take care of itself I supposed as it has always been in the past ... I've learnt tt when u care less abt tings ... it get settled, u r less frustrated

it has been a while since I returned ... close to a mth ... n it has been a while since I wrote my blog .... have nt been in a healthy condition of late, in fact I have visited 3 doctors in a space of 2 weeks ... first, my wisdom tooth was giving me such a hard time tt I couldn't sleep =(, den a few days later I got an eye infection on my right eyes ... was so painful tt I was worried tt I may got an ulcer, the doctor said it was juz sored eyes ... and on Saturday ... juz yesterday I got food poisoning ... hav a realli bad headache, fever and pain in the stomach... tis shld have been the worst ... never have a bout of diseases all coming my way ... realli costs me a bomb to visit the doctor ... anyway I was struggling thru my classes both on Saturday and Sunday ... it was too last min to inform my boss tt I couldn't b able to teach anyway ... plus I couldn't afford to miss the paycheck ... Sunday class was always a bit difficult ... cuz it's 3 hr and me myself always have a hard time concentrating even as a student .... there r so many mischievious kids who juz enjoyed moving ard ... students like Sebastian n Chunkiat r always a nightmare n gosh I was getting worried by the fact tt they noe almost nothing... aniwae yst I was tinking, n rather hoping tt I won't b falling sick so much easily when the new semester begins ... cuz I have 7 modules next semester, sth I nvr tried before ... gosh I have not even try 6 modules ... have been pretty slack during my life in NUS ... nvr realli listened to lessons, nvr printing my lecture notes .... it was luck tt I breezed thru in the honours yr ... now I have to start working hard n keep my procrastination at home ... I supposed if I could do well tis semester... I cld be a proud man

juz received a couple of emails frm my email acct ... it has been a while since I received some decent emails ... it was alwae filled with junk emails tt I wondered the purpose of me having an email account (juz simply to clear the junk ... damn dumb rite)... aniwae my Swedish neighbour Bjorn will b coming to Singapore ... have been partying with him when I was in Sweden ... but guess it is juz freaking inconvenient to party when I returned to Singapore ... mum cld make noise n anyway it suxs to take a cab back home ... expensive n nt quite worth the $$$ .... den my swedish exchange student frm Singapore was talking abt a gathering ... it has been realli a while since we all last met ... looking forward to meeting them ... I juz hoped I cld recover in time ... becuz of this silly viral disease, I have to cancel my Sunday and maybe my Monday plan ... juz hope I recovered fully by tmr.

now I think abt it ... it is true when pple told me that it is harder to adapt back to Singapore life once u returned from exchange ... v v true ... firstly, I can't get used to Singapore weather ... it made me altogether lethargic n I couldn't do much in the whole afternoon, sometime at night it get unbearably hot ... the few gud tings r perhaps tt I don have to cook myself, the food are much nicer ... n my family and gud frenzs r all here ... but the exchange was like the crowning moments in my NUS life ... true tt I oni do 2 modules in Sweden and becuz of tis nxt semester I have to do more modules ... but tis doesn't bother me .... perhaps becuz I nvr thoughts there wld tings tt cld "kill" me, so sometimes pple tink I'm too casual abt tings n sometime my "childlike" qualities get on pple nerve... but guess I do get things done ... I juz felt tt it is always impt to savour the moments .... the enjoy the process .... tt alwae matter more to me.

went watching Windstruck with Alvin, BengHwee + Siangyong juz like a week ago or so ... a guys' outing ... Beng Hwee liked it a lot ... which at first surprised me becuz he was at times cold but he has got a gentle heart, i supposed .... it's gratifying to see more pple starting to like korean movies, my love for korean movies started in 2000 after watching Shiri with Yu Min n have been spreading the gud tings about korean movies since ... hopefully my website cld be more successful in the future
