A lot of things happened on the first week
but there were some which I really couldn't forget.
Doesn't Mean Anything
While I was eating my lunch on Thursday at Mensa with my friends,
I started waving profusely when I saw someone really familar. One of
my unfriendly coursemates, (I think) saw me looking at his direction and
thought that I was waving to him, sort of tilited his head upwards (to return the
greeting, I suppose, without a smile - lol, I don't know why), which is besides the
current point I'm about to bring up: I saw Pete! He's one of my closest friends from
Indonesia and he's an Alicia Keys fan (holaa!!) because I didn't really expect to meet him
here in Singapore and it was a complete surprise but sadly, he will return next week
as he's here to help his brother with some family problems. I have to agree with
him that her new song isn't as good as her previous but nevertheless,
anything from her! (ELLOS! If you are reading this :)
Happy: And you know it.
Happy to be in the same class with Siti and Leslie for this block,
happy for TB competition to finally come to an end, finally.
Happy that school starts 30 minutes later then before,
happy to have Monday off this block and
I'm especially happy for D!
(btw, I'm that someone lol)
Leslie just came home this morning
from the week's long field camp and
now has a sore throat while my sister has
her friends over to spend the time while she
cooks dinner and have a random gathering today.
I watched The Blue Mansion with Jun Xiang yesterday
and as mentioned in a youtube video trailer I saw, I
actually agree that this is a good Singapore film
but I think many from the production crew
were not local. Watch 500 Days of Summer!
What is it like to be late for latecomers session?

Ok, here's my timetable.
I thought to myself "9am to 6pm again?!"
I think it's irritating to see 3 hours break:
but thinking again, hopefully not just an excuse to make me
feel better, I think it's good because I would usually have that lethargic feeling
if I were to go home at 3pm, then perhaps take a nap and work through the night.
I am currently liking Block #7 just the looks of it now because it is only one module but would be better
if it was in the afternoon slot. Other than that, I guess I really have to get back as an early riser again!
P.S. What's with the 12pm to 2pm timing for ComDA in Block #8?
I did not review my past semester yet because
I think I should look forward LOL. No, seriously.
I've been thinking that I think too much and I shouldn't do that.
Instead I should now look ahead and see what things I have not tried
and somesort push the envelop. Recently I came out with my motto!!
Some of you all may know and most of you do not know so here goes:
Work hard, Play hard;
If I don't try then I don't hope.
Sounds familiar? The first line is really common while I took
the other from one of my favourite songs, "What Can I Do?" by The Corrs.
Placing them together, I feel this is something so relevant to me. Right now
I'm having block teaching so I consider these as work, which I always have been,
and if I don't work hard, then I don't hope for a good grade. Likewise, if I don't try something new
when I'm having my holidays, it is close to not achieving anything so that's why I will have this in mind.
With that, I think I'm sort of ready for school this semester.
Hope I can try to wake up early tomorrow. Haha!

1,000+ views on my latest youtube video :)
Remember to press pause on the background music before pressing play below!
With the help from a talented local musician/gamer/magician/etc,
Reuben Wong, I decided to record my own English version
of Byul/Star from the soundtrack of 200 Pounds Beauty.
----------------------------------------
When I feel the wind blow in this place,
there I see the stars beyond this window pane;
Shining so bright, here and tonight
and I wish youre by my side.
Whisper in my ear saying:
"Don't be afraid",
that same old voice has spoke to me
and I need your embrace.
And even though my
courage told me just to be with you
even though I tried my best to hint you.
But afterall, my deepest love for you
had just fallen through.
I held back on too.
Someone is already there for you.
Should I stay or should I leave this room?
Like the stars that shine so brightly,
I still feel so strongly for you
----------------------------------------

Caught your attention? Ok good, I'm feeling naughty.
(Not sure what it means? Check out the Urban Dictionary!)
Watched a few videos about Ris Low, who wishes to be a nurse or open up a cake shop
working with (beauty pageants' favourite mentions to help) ex-convicts from the YRP
after the credit card incident, I then came across the next related video
which I do not know how was it related to Ris Low! This is about
Pasir Ris' unsafe water (old news) and below is the video.
Check out which school is having fun in dirty water!

Happy Mid-Autmn Festival
Since my previous entry, after coming home from the gay club,
I have been out and about (except going for picnic!) around Singapore! :D
Apart from the club experience, which I wouldn't mind going again (and I intend
to go sober and not get a hangover the next time), I cycled around the East side
with my family for a few hours, finally went swimming and a quick jog, a
wake-up call visit to haw par villa as well as several sakae meals with
different people including a meal by myself. I doubt I will stay at
my grandmother's place because of lack of beds and I believe
the stay at the park will not happen because no khaki lol.
Got my results a day right after Children's Day (what a gift!)
and I will review my 1st sem of 2nd year hopefully in my next entry!
Will edit this entry with some random pictures (yayy) later tonight.
