shit happens...

as my title says it aptly... SHIT HAPPENS... and when it does happen, we cannot do anything abt it but to clean it up and move on from where we are at...

i guess it all gets to ppl in similar positions la... can only work with wat i have... and jus carry on doing wat i know is best for everyone... this is the trust given to me, i can only hope they'll continue to trust me to do my job well...

interesting surprise...

went online as usual last night and had someone who hasn't contacted me in year say hi to me... hahaha... it was a really nice surprise.. haha... had a good long chat over something i dun think anyone wld chat abt normally like we did.. haha... found out dat she's like doing her PhD in NTU also la!! i'm like still and undergrad lor... haiz... hahaha... but cannot compare la... girls of my year either all working or doing further studies liao... even got quite a number of them still studying medicine... hahaha... but we had to serve the nation... hahaha... it's our duty la... not like we'll not get out to work also like dat right? hahaha...

got quite a number of my secondary school frens are in NTU now... muz really find time to gather them and meet up sia... hahaha.... catch up with them...

last night was also an interesting night when i realised how easy it was for some ppl to simply shirk their responsibilities with jus a sentence after they've done so much damage.. worst still is when u have to pick up the mess they've left behind for u in the next year to come.. haiz...

nvm... work with watever i have right now is my policy now... dun let things dat happen which are beyond my control get to my mind and blur my resolve and my spirit... learn and not repeat the same mistake...

hungry.. gg for lunch liao...

relaxing day...

today quite relax la... though got caught in the rain on the way to school, school ended early so everything was kinda forgotten quickly... hahaha....

took my time to ride home in the rain... hehe... then got home and jus plonked in bed for a quick nap before gg for tuition for two students separately... During their exams is like dat one la... now my headache is when they having O's and i'm preparing for my exams lor... dat'll be quite a bit of a problem.. hahaha... but i guess things will work out in the end one la... so for now wat i can do is not lag behind so dat i wun have to spend too much time catching up in the end...

muz really try and slp properly tonight... cos i feel the heatyness coming back again... so better make sure i dun fall sick again... will be too siong for me liao... hahaha... everyone else take care ah!! =)

reflections....

it's amazing wat listening to kevin kern can do to u... it really puts u in a state of mind where u're jus so relaxed... so relaxed until i start to reflect on quite a bit of memories... both good and bad... hahaha...

have been listening to kevin kern since 2000.. been to his first concert in singapore back in 2003.. and have nv stopped listening since then... will recommend his music to everyone and anyone i know.. listening to him play the piano is jus simply wonderful and u'll jus enjoy it no matter wat... those who'd like to listen to his collection of 7 discs, pls approach me.. will be very glad to lend them out to u.. haha...

it's good to take some time out in a while to relax and take the time to observe and sense and feel everything around u dat u usually dun take notice of... =) try dat when u have the time la... gotta go get stuff done liao... later still got lecture at 5.30 before i can go home... haiz... =)

family dishes

if in case for those who don't know me well, i do cook.... hahaha.... and for ur information, i'm pretty proud of being able to cook... and i love it too... hahaha...

when i have free time i'll jus stay in the kitchen and help my mum with all the cooking, esp when we're preparing for special days for prayers... cos that's when my family dishes will surface... and only during those times i get to revise on my recipe and techniques again... hahaha... they dun really happen often... jus like my dumplings... whic is why i took 4 years to be able to take over most of the cooking and wrapping from my mum and sisters... hahaha... not easy sia...

but now when i look back at my growing list of dishes it feels good to know dat i wun starve or miss my family dishes anytime anywhere... hahaha... and dat in future when i have my own family i can cook these scrumptous meals for me and my family.... hahaha....

if u wanna know my list of dishes come ask me urself la... hahaha... too long to list here liao... hehe.... gotta go look after my braised ducks liao... =) ciao...

tired....

haha... when ppl say dat u have to pay a price for being lazy at first and try to catch up later, they're not kidding man... it's really really tough... so this policy is not for me anymore after i get out of this mess i'm in with my schoolwork now...

same thing goes for my main comm in our planning this year... or to be exact, this sem... cos we cannot afford to pay the price for such tardiness liao... alld learnt my lesson from last year and i'm not abt to repeat the same mistakes again man... though it might seem a little extreme and some might not understand why i'm so particular abt certain things and not others, as long as i know dat wat i'm doing is for the good of the camp and with no better solutions to the issue, i'll stand firmly on my grounds... ppl will have to learn to see the entire picture like i see it right now... and they'll have to learn to understand from my point of view as well... =)

this doesn't only apply to work, same goes for my other aspects of life...

i guess there's a reason why i'm not Mr Popular everywhere i go right? hahaha.... u have to pay a price for balance i guess.. i can only hope dat others will understand ba...

steadily clearing my lagging studies and hoping to catch up with everyone... hopefully will be able to finish them in time.. gotta go now... everybody jia you too la!! =)

finding peace....

i'm still pretty messed up right now... and hope to be able to find the peace back again within me... even though i think it'll be quite impossible with the mountain of things i have at hand right now... But, with some determination and some organisation, i hope to be able to achieve dat ba...

it's something dat i've known for some time, but only recently been thinking abt it... haha... i've been blessed with a pair of eyes dat are really wonderful... why wld i say dat? cos not only can it be very piercing when i stare at ppl, it can also project a softer side of me, when it's all watery and wide... hahaha.... have been hearing such comments since i began wearing contact lenses... cos no spectacles to cover my eyes ma.. so got direct contact... hahaha.... it helps also when i try to get the attention of the opposite party when i can get myself to look at them directly in the eyes... hahaha.... something i need to work on ba i guess... hahaha... something for u all to read abt the me inside.. how i feel and think abt certain things... something different from the usual rambling i always make when i blog.... hahhaa...

find things dat make u feel good abt urself and focus on them... not on the things which make u feel bad... learn to accept wat is ald done and over, and look forward to the next step, a new beginning... this is wat i'm telling myself these days... jus to counter the pessimist within me... hahaha... most ppl who know me will think of me as an optimist all the time, but little do they know dat beneath this optimist front dat i put up almost everyday, there's this very dark corner of pessimism trying to break free and eating me up from the inside at the same time too...

learning to let go of my fears and my guilt is something i need to do to be able to shine some light into dat dark corner... but it's always easier said than done right? how abt thinking in the line of "why not give it a try and give my best shot... so dat i wun regret not trying in future..."? leave nothing to regrets... cos it really isn't something u'd wanna have... let go of ur ego and let go of wat u think others might think of u... cos everything boils down to u and only u... cos it's ur life u're living... not any other.... cherish it..

Union Day....

haha... after reaching home at like 12 plus and slping at 3 plus... i almost didn't want to come to school today lor.... but my motivation in the end turned out to be a burst buble too... cos in the end we nv discussed abt our project at all also...

well, can't do much abt it anyways... so decided to take a walk around school to go get my book for Public Admin... walked to NIE, but there got no stock... then went all the way down to Popular to finally get my hands on a copy of it... otherwise i'll start killing ppl liao... hahaha.... for those who do not know, NIE and Popular bookshop in my school is from one end walk to the other end one... hahaha....

Today is union day also... so had tons of ppl running around like crazy trying to vote for ppl into committees when they might not even know some of them... but cos there's a goodie bag at the end of it all, it was worth running around school to do all the voting lor... hahaha... dun look at me.. i'm not one of them... went down to support my frens running for MAE club positions and also got to chit chat with some others at the CEE side... hahaha....

having taken over Insinyur for next year, i guess the only thing i can do for my main commers who're planning hard for the camp next year now is for me to start networking my way thru all the school clubs, school offices and whoever and watever i can come in contact with for help and financial support la... cos dat'll be the best way i can support all of them as their chairman... hahaha... Met up with Albert, outgoing president for CEE club... and he nicely volunteered to help bring me around to visit all the ppl i shd meet and visit in the school, introducing me to them and helping me get a head start with everything.... hopefully i'll be able to capitalise on dat and work everything out nicely ba.... will be looking forward to it all cos it'll be a good chance to get to know more ppl in the higher offices and also get a better view of how all the system in school works... hahaha....

BUT... i still need to make sure my focus is not off the target oh... hahaha.... studies and my projects which are due for sharing and discussion tmr will be my top priority this weekend... and also everything will have to start balancing by then, so dat i'll be able to manage everything properly ba... =) wish me luck!!

Very relieved and happy...

sub comm recruitment was today... had an overwhelming response by our OGs today... all groups came back with almost full strength... best part was dat everyone was really here to contribute back to insinyur wat was given to them... a great time and a whole lot of new frens... =) i'm really looking forward to working with these ppl and continuing this good attitude and mindset for years to come... =)

my main comm was also fully filled up tonight.. great to know dat everyone on board now has the same goals and directions... hope we can all work and move forward as one body and get everything done smoothly, quickly and most efficiently, so dat everyone can have a great time before and during camp!!

super tired now.... will have to spend time sorting out all my projects and assignments and also my schoolwork... cannot delay any further liao... otherwise i'll nv find my way back le... esp not with such heavy core modules i'm taking now.... wish me luck!! =)

busy period almost over...

havent had much chance to really sit down and blog so will probably start blogging short these days ba...

still feeling a little under the weather, but so much more better liao....

Insinyur bash was nice... hahhaa... ppl turned up and we had quite a bit of fun together watching the best freshies of every group acting on stage!! after dat had lots of talking and walking around from group to group... hahaha.... it's good to hear all the feedback dat the juniors have for camp, so dat we can work on it during our camp planning which has officially started le... =) insinyur, thank u all for a great night... also not forgetting the group Ares.. who took me in nicely to join them for supper after the bash... had tons of good laughs....

main comm met up for the first time, though not a full strength, the feeling and the mindset is all in the right direction now and i'm absolutely sure we'll be able to get something done very well and set a great example for all main comms to come!! =)

tmr is the sub comm recruitment liao le... hope the turnout and the mindset for all the ppl running for the committees will be the same great one dat we have in our main comm too!! wish us good luck!!

all photos and videos from camp will also be showcased tmr too!! do come down and if u're interested to keep a copy of the photos can consider getting it from the P n P group tmr k?

so come on down everyone, whether u're running or not, jus come down and get together la...

cya!!

super busy but recovering...

cldn't get myself up for lessons at 8.30 today... but had to go for my Public Administration tutorial today.... so rushed down in yet another morning of horrifying rain to reach south spine wet once more... but today got slippers.. so my feet were dry!! hahaha.... tutorial was pretty ok.. though it's heavy on the reading, but i still think dat this module can be done one la... understanding the concept is really important.... but i guess dat goes for everyone doesn't it? hahaha....

rushed back north to settle my engineering design module project with the gang and then rushed back home to set the timer to record a show for mum cos none of us remembered... before gg back to TMS to face the few ppl who turned up... well, i guess it's to be expected la... when there's really nothing concrete and set for them to return to... hopefully will be able to fight for them with the school la...

my nose decided to stop running today after my morning dose of medication... but the cough was still terrible... coughing on the way home while riding can be pretty torturous... but not as bad as sneezing though... hahaha...cos i have to open the visor and sneeze and then close before i can get back to riding... same for cough but not as bad... cos when i sneeze i'll shake a little... hahaha....

now dealing with the subsiding fever and dry cough liao... so shd be pretty fine by tmr ba... all thanks to mum's ling2 yang2 water... hahaha... i know many hate it, but i'm beginning to fall in love with it liao... hahaha.... esp for the heaty type like me... it's my saviour lor... got some more work to do before i can try to do some catch up with my studies and homework... nitez everybody!! =)

sick like nobody's business sia...

super sick now... suddenly started sneezing yesterday afternoon and it blew up into full scale sore throat and cough in the middle of the night... plus today after the morning session in the rain which basically left me with soggy shoes for the entire day, i was totally chuied.....

cancelled today's tuition and got home, not feeling like eating and everything.. jus wrapped myself up and tried desperately to stay warm... hoping it will not blow into yet another viral fever again,... sick and tired of dat liao... hahaha... the numbness and inability to move and hyperventilation and everything.... terrible memories... so to everyone out there who's not feeling really great now, dun let it have the chance to develop into a full blown viral or bacterial fever k? otherwise we'll have something common to talk abt liao... this is something i'd rather not be on common ground with anyone... hahaha...

well, now's a bad time to be sick... cos i have so many things to handle all at once... really super tough sia... hopefully will be all ok by tmr morning liao... hehe... miracle sia... =) wish me luck!!

luck!!

finally the clogged up system of the printing shop in LWN is cleared up liao... and everything's back to normal again... phew.. cannot stand another day of queueing for half and hour jus to print a few pieces of paper lor... hahaha....

well.. gotta rush for tutorial liao.. long day today.. 2 tutorials now, later 5 hours straight of lectures till 6.30pm before main comm recruitment at 7pm... hahaha... super shag sia... hahaha.... wish me LUCK!!

have a nice day!!

packed!!

i'm now caught up in a super big mix up of things sia....

with all the events dat are coming up this week and next, i thought i was ald super packed liao... but boy was i so wrong sia...

heard dat my tuition kid got a B3 for his chinese o levels and was really happy for him...
cos dat was wat we were both hoping for from all the work we've put in together... good job man...

subsequently by a big twist of events, i'm now having two more tuition kids asking me for help in chinese in their o levels at the end of the year... which effectively makes me a full time tuition teacher of some sort... well, i guess now dat i dun have other committments other than insinyur and tuition, i can juggle my time still not too badly ba... i hope... but with all the meetings i'm supposed to chair and everything, i can only hope for the best la... anyways they're probably gonna be my last batch of students i'll be teaching for a long long time.. cos after the end of the year i'll be gg on IA, then will be year 4 liao... which will be super packed for me.. and since they're all sec 4, i can make good use of this chance to end it all together, so dat i wun have to let anyone down at any time and feel bad abt it...

this sem also quite jialat... with so many projects to complete and some pretty heavy core modules, it'll take quite a great feat to be able to finish all these properly with flying colours... organisation will be a must for me now... =)

okies then.. take care everyone!! hope tmr's main comm recruitment will be succesful la.. =)

start of the month!!

well, not dat i wanna create a hype abt it but the lunar 7th month is here... gg vegetarian today again... hahaha... jus like any other 1st day and 15th of the month..

had a knock early in the morning.. was so caught unawared while trying to overtake a lorry and the lorry swerved out as well, resulting in me elbow bumping against the side of the lorry.. nothing serious, jus a very small scratch and hurting a little, so shd be ok in a few days ba... =) well, it cld have been worse right? so no worries k? i'm fine... =) jus wanna air it out cos still quite pissed with the uncle driving the lorry... hehe....

had a short stay at Hotel Intercontinental at bugis on saturday together with my sisters.. one of them had a free stay, so we decided to do wat we do every year and take a day off to go rest and relax there together, shop around too... always so hard to get us siblings together now dat most of them are staying elsewhere and all working and me studying.. so gotta make good use of such chances.. hahaha....

finally managed to get my sisters and mum to play mahjong together liao!! yea!! hahaha... otherwise the mahjong table in my room gonna start getting dusty liao... hahaha... decided dat every now and then when we all home we'll play one round or two la...

but sad also.. now dat the bowling alley at Katong Shopping Centre has closed down... apparently it's been closed for a year ald... dat's at least how long i've not been to bowling liao... hahaha... now looking for new places to bowl... cheap and relatively good lane conditions... tell me k? =)

went to check my email inbox and realised i'd been flooded by the response of those who've joined the insinyur yahoo group.. hahaha... =) happy!! hope everyone will eventually join in and we'll all at least have one avenue to stay in contact la.. =) to insinyur ppl who are reading this, i've set up insinyur friendster group too liao... do join!! dat's for everyone who's ever been a part of insinyur before!! =)

gotta go print stuff and go for lessons liao... monday blues... also worries, cos my tuition kids are getting their O level Chinese results later today... =)

organise and prioritise

haha.. these two words came to me when i was having tuition one day and was discussing certain things with my my tuition kids.. not really kids though... but they're still pretty young to me la... hahaha... i'm lucky to have both of these boys and of course at the same time a little stressed cos their parents put their hopes for their children in my teaching them... haha... will try not to let them down la... but like i always say, i'm really doing watever i can for them liao... the rest will really depend on how they perform in the actual exams le... so good luck for ur prelims boys... =)

why wld i suddenly think of these two words? simple enough reason if u've read my previous entry... hahaha... look at the number of things i have on hand right now and it wun be hard ot realise how tied up i really am at the moment... not forgetting the situation at home now too... putting the latter aside, all the other activities are voluntary... and it's my policy dat since i've agreed to take up the task i'll do my best to do it well while i still have the chance to.. things like my secondary school CO and Camp Insinyur, these are classic examples of how my passion leads me on to wanna give back to these areas for all that it has given to me all these years... =)

but of course, all these are not comparable to wat i shd be more focussed on right now... my studies... which is where the prioritising comes in.. at the same time, it's best if i can start exercising and being more careful of wat i eat liao... after all i'm high risk for diabetes and maybe even cancer... who knows... after all i've been thru this past year... i can tell u, anything can happen man.. hahaha....

but watever it is, as i told my GLs this year, take things in ur stride and focus on the big picture of things.. in my case, focus on the big picture of my own life... there's still quite a long way to go unless anything unexpected happens la.. hahaha...

drifting off a bit... well, who wldn't want to have someone by their side supporting them through all the challenges and tests in life? but instead of jus accepting support sometimes, ppl tend to jus throw their problems on to others... something i'm guilty of too u know... hahaha... i guess it's jus human nature ba? we all have to learn it someday... jus a matter of whether u learn it the easy way or the hard way... most stubborn ppl like me will learn it the hardest way possible... only then will change take place.... only then will ppl learn to accept wat life dishes u with and working with wat u have right now... living in the present... not the past, nor the future... hahaha... old man yakking again... shall stop here then... =)

take care everybody!! in contrast to Miss Worlds every year, no world peace.. i shall start small.. me peace... and if everyone gets their own peace, maybe someday we will have world peace... =)

Events!! Join in!!

Happy National Day!!

haha... before everything else, Happy Birthday Singapore!! hehe....

stayed home today after a long night last night... after a round of mahjong with my sisters and mum, went for late night movie at cineleisure.. watched Jay Chou's Secret... wasn't really fascinated with the idea of watching dat show at first... but i muz say it was a really nice film... like i told my sister, it's a show worth watching again and maybe investing in it's DVD... for me to say dat, u know immediately dat i loved the show... the storyline was more or less expected, but the way everything was shot, the music and the sweetness of the love story really caught my attention.. though things seem too ideal in the movie, u jus dun think of it dat way when u're watching it lor... haha... ppl who havent watched it yet, pls go for it.. give it a shot.. i think most of u will love it like i do...=)

National Day!! hahaha.. a great day to feel patriotic.. though i kinda feel dat way most of the time throughout the year and i dun even know why sia... jus feel dat way... am proud to have served NS and love our country for it's peace and stability...not to be taken for granted too though... jus feel lucky to be born here and not anywhere else around us.. hahaha.... =)

so i hope dat everything in Singapore will continue to be stable and for everyone to realise how lucky we are to be living here in this little island we call home...

good night everyone!!

strength...

back in school again today.. not for lessons though.. hahaha... cos today dun have design lab, and it's also my rest week for lab, so 6 hours of lessons gone liao... my elective has been changed so there's no more lesson today.. hahaha... so i decided to slp in a little later today... after sending the maritime class off to Norway last night.. had a lot of laughs and also felt a little sad cos mei's gonna be gone for 4 months.. hahaha... hope she has fun and comes back refreshed together with the rest of the gang la... =)

popped by the temple again jus now to pray for strength in undertaking the next challenges coming up in the year ahead... will need lots of it... hahaha.... learnt and seen a lot these past few months... from controlling myself to seeing how others can jus treat u so differently so quickly.. my policy now is unless a misunderstanding is brought to my attention, i shall not deal with it face on, because there cld jus be dat possibility dat i thought wrong... but if i know dat i'm the one who caused the misunderstanding, i'll spare no effort in clearing it up the best i can...

so for those who feels dat i've wronged them in one way or another, pls dun hesitate to bring up the issue to me, otherwise i'll jus take everything dat comes at me as it is and those looks and attitude dat u're giving me as they are... cos there's no point in trying to change other's perceptions of u by trying to change them... instead, look back at urself and change urself if need be... more importantly, be who u wanna be and not who others want u to be.... cos dat's the true u... and dat's the only u in this world... focus on wat u think of urself and not wat others think of u... do things of ur own accord and be happy abt it... cos u chose to do it... and when u're really committed to something, that thing will usually turn out much better than u'd expect it to be.. =)

take it from the old man who's been thru quite a bit this past year... peace to everyone.. =) take care.. =)

school starts!!

haha... now in LWN... months after being away from school liao... hahaha... not a bad feeling to be in school again, seeing many familiar faces and new ones as well... not to forget the crowding in front of the library in the morning before it opens.. hahaha.... funny yet scary sight to see so early in the morning...

hope everyone has had a good rest and are ready to chiong for the semester ahead la...

gotta go buy my notes liao... otherwise later lecture dun have notes will get very sian one... hahaha... hopefully can find my frens to sit together in lecture later... provided they come first.. hahaha.... today lab liao... damn sian leh... got 6 hours of lab a week lor... kaoz... hehe.. watever la...

gone... enjoy ur day everyone!! =)

a hopeful start...

went to the market with my mum early in the morning and then went straight for tuition after sending her home with all the stuff... came back home and gave my bike a good scrub before we head back to school for the new sem... then went for dinner with peidi, jun min and jj... was nice catching up man... muz do dat more often, but given the amt of time we have on all of our hands it's not gg to be easy... which is why i asked peidi to bring along yehong to meet me for lunch in school... either i go NIE look for them or they come over can A find me la.. hahaha.. =)

also relieved myself of a load tonight once i've confirmed my choices for vice chairs for my new main comm.. with dat, we can begin our long journey to the next insinyur with the team dat we'll put together and the direction i shall set for the entire camp... =) this is a challenge i have undertaken and i shall face it squarely no matter wat comes at me.. =)

hope everything goes well... wish us luck!! =) nitez... gotta slp liao... still gotta wake up 6 plus tmr morning to siam morning traffic.. =)

school starting!!

hahaha... kep thinking dat after tonight school starts liao... forgetting dat tmr is sunday and dat i have 2 tuition back to back... hahahaha.... from 1030 to 3 pm...

suddenly had the urge to go out shopping today but in the end nv go as usual la... hahaha... sent my mum to work in the afternoon and went to collect her medicine from chinatown only to reach home to a spoilt SCV set top box... apparently a fuse blew when i switched on the power for the box when i got home... so i ha dto go down to tampines to exchange a new box home... otherwise no SCV i think many ppl at home will die ah... haha...managed to walk around tm for a short while la... but then headed home for dinner before lazing as usual in front of the tv....

i've been having ppl asking me why i didn't look for any cute girls this year during insinyur... but my reply is simply i was too busy to even look... and even if there were cute girls, there wasn't any contact to begin, with let alone any sparks of any kind... hahaha....

but more so, another reason is also cos i'm really tired... physically and mentally... it's amazing, cos the me from a few years before wld nv believe myself to be able to say such a thing, but i'm really saying it now... i'm really tired..... time after time, failure after failure, i've kinda lost the drive to jump into another one right now le... only leaving it to fate.... and anyone who's daring enough to approach me first... hahaha... apparently i was pretty intimidating at times during camp... wait, i am intimidating in person too sometimes... i guess jus more easily annoyed and with those piercing eyes of mine, i think i can stab someone jus by staring at them... hahhaaahaa....

i'm still on the lookout for jogging partners in school or near home also can.. and also mahjong buddies for the occasional game or two at my place... otherwise super sian la... and growing fat too.... now worried abt diabetes striking me young sia.... but wat to do, do watever i can to delay or hold it back la.. =)

nitez everyone...

mambo night...

went mamboing with the group of seniors from insinyur last wed, long time since i last went... it was before they renovated i believe... hahaha.... super mountain turtle right? also gg cos it was my mei's last mambo before she flies off to norway.. plus i've been itching to go enjoy the music... ppl will scold me for being stupid cos i always go there but nv drink... and end up only dancing.. but dat's all i need, even if it costs me 23 bucks jus to get in...

saw my old brigade S4 there too... complimented him on his mandarin in his appearance on tv for national day fireworks display... hahaha....

well, the night was enjoyable more so cos of the ppl around... the music wasn't really dat good, with a lot of mixing and other super old songs which are not the super popular mambo numbers... so ended up leaving slightly earlier before they closed shop to go for some prata across the street... dat ended the night for me... hahaha... was nice la... smoke free and everyone jus enjoyed the music and all...

closed the day for me after visiting tj earlier in the afternoon... with everyone busy like nobody's business and stuff... hahaha... might pop back another day to check in on other teachers as well... been a long time since i last saw them too... =)
