t.o.w. the chickenella

I'm full of chicken.

Hahaz. You'll see why. Anyway. Went for training today at Marina. And I'm pleased to say, there were no more trials! Hahaz. Actually, we pretty much didn't do much today. The coach was just telling us some stuff and correcting our swings and whatnot. Actually, them. The coach spoke like 2 sentences to me. Serious. The first hour and a half, he didnt even say a single word to me. And I was already thinking if he despises straight bowlers. Anyway, the first time he spoke to me, it was a negative comment, so that further confirmed my suspicions. Hahaz. But thanks to Julian for being an ultra nice senior and telling me stuff. I think I was kinda quiet out there. A lil rude too. Sorry! I was just swamped lah. Oh well. Anyway, we played just one game, and I hit a 115. Which wasn't entirely great anyway. But yeah, in the last frame. The coach finally spoke his holy 2nd sentence to me. He was pointing and glaring at me and he said "You!". Bahz, so I'm all freaked out and ready to fling the bowling shoes in his face and dash for the exit less I get malu'ated again. But he goes on to say "Go and buy your own ball." Hahaz. Phew! He is actually quite nice lar. Weird sense of humour. Anyway, its good he doesnt keep talking to me. I prefer to bowl in silence. Hahaz.

So I'm thinking I should get a ball. I'm pretty much decided to stay in bowling. Despite all odds. Its amazing how much and how little support you can get from certain groups. Ironic. Nevertheless, I'm filled with intent. Too bad.

Anyway, met with Ronald for lunch. We ended up joking all day and just had a blast. Hahaz. Oh yar, the chickenella. I had KFC for lunch, then ate nuggets as a snack and then ate chicken rice for dinner. I'm hoping there arent any new cases of bird flu, cos' then I'll just totally flip out.

Serena took it. Hahaz. I was right! 3 sets Serena! Hahaz. I actually wanted Davenport to win. Cos' I don't think she'll be around much longer. But yeah, as long as a Russian doesnt win. I'm missing jenjen. I hope she gets back in soon. Bahz.

School. Hahaz. We celebrated Weien's birthday in conjunction with Dawn's farewell. Hahaz, though all I did was shop for presents. I hope he enjoyed his surprise man. Haha. Jinyang is really quite thoughtful. Hahaz. Weien is also really quite appreciative. Nice lot, they are. Dawn. I'll post about her in the class blog. It seems like it needs entries.

Oh well. That's all. Stay supportive~

t.o.w. the lousy games

Yups. I'm pretty pissed at myself right now.

Bowling trials today. Well, it was at Victor's Bowl, where I got my fist turkey whilst playing with the URA people a couple of years back, so I figured maybe it was a good place.

Apparently not.

Hahaz. Oh well. I dunno either. I started weird. But did ok to finish at 122 for the first game. Then after striking the first frame of the second game, the coach came and asked me if I had any prior coaching (no) and then told me to come on saturday (ok). So I figured I made it to the 2nd round of trials I guess. But then, I dunno why, I suddenly felt burdened. Yeps. I wasnt hitting freely anymore. I tensed up and just didn't feel the rhythm anymore. Needless to say, I played like shit. Arhz. It was probably the pressure I felt, of the people looking at how I was playing. Bahz. I'm so weak. Hahz. I need to work like Sharapova, Federer and Serena Williams. To be able to hold the heat off the match with a mind as solid as nails and sorta transfer the pressure into positive energy.

Damn. I thought I was good at it. Bahz. I guess I really need to loosen up in the future. I hope I don't flop again on Saturday, cos them two games, were like, two of the worst that I have ever played since Sec 1. God, Help me.

In other news, Dawns leaving us. Bahz. I'm sad. Another member of the happy s74 family leaving us. We have like, 22 people. Thats.. little! Hahaz. But yeah, we had fun playing tennis and all. So I can't say I wasnt sad. Oh well. All the best to her. =)

t.o.w. i'm having fun

I am!

Hahaz. Okaez. JC is pretty fun lah. Especially the class, one can just like, laugh all day. My jaw hurts from all that laughing. Oh well.

Anyway. Our teachers are ok lah. John Ng is damn funny. Hahaz. I guess I'm quite happy. GP looks scary though. Hahaz. We have to write essays tml, and my expose's are always lousy. Oh well.

I'm proud to say I ran today! On my own accord! Thats a new! Hahaz. Just one round round the school with Kailong and Chaorong. I actually weighed heavier than norm on a scale in which everyone came up lighter. So thats cause for worry. Hahaz. Oh well.

I don't feel like blogging. Hahaz. So tata~

t.o.w. supernova

Yeps yeps. I'm in JC! Hahaz.

So! Orientation! I guess it was pretty fun. Hahaz. Wasn't so much the orientation part that I enjoyed, but more so the class. Hahaz. Which is good! Cos' then I'll have fun throughout the 2 years. Hahahz. I guess I'm hoping we have a 0 turnover. A lot of games and songs and dances and stuff.. So yeah! Let's get to it.

The first two days was pretty lame. Oops. Thats probably taboo now, since my CT is umm.. someone. But yeah. I mean, I was actually pretty much decided to take PCME. But then realised, I really hated physics. Hahaz. So took BCME. Anyway, it was pretty lame to split us into OGs because we were only together for like 1 day, which is entirely lame. But I met lijia there anyway. Hahaz.

So 3rd day! Yups. We split into classes. I looked at the list and I was like whoa! 8 guys, 16 girls. 4 chinese high. kcr, jinyang, weiheng and myself. Then the next morning when we gathered, there were like, 3 more. Hahaz. So it was 7 of us. Hahaz. But the other guy from maris was pretty cool what. Hahaz. Hahaz. So yeah, we rocked. Turns out lijia is also in the class. Its so funny, during og icebreakers, she was the first one to say she was gonna take bcme, then i was like wondering if we would be in the same class and all. So yeah. Hahaz. Anyway, played some games and all. Then met senior class too. Hahaz. They seem like a bunch of happy and nice ppl.

Yups, 4th day. We had amazing race, which was kinda lame. Haha. At least the clues were a little challenging. Otherwise, I would get CBS to sue them for an infringe of copyright and all. Then had more games, which we kinda jalan jalan'ed cos we were all so tired.

The last day, we had war games. Which was kinda lame yet fun at the same time. Its pretty dumb how some ppl think.. nvm. This blog is public. But yeah. They kept stopping us and making us squat like prisoners. I think they just got a kick out of it. But yeah. We didn't win, cos apparently ppl think we played unfair. Schwarmchischarwm. Anyway. Bathed at the swimming pool and then went for lunch at yong chye. Came back and did our storm item. Actually wanted to like, prance around, but because my silly beats werent that silly after all and yating didnt really want to, but more so the former, I didn't. Hahaz. But yeah, we didnt win, but I guessed we had fun. I wonder if the senior class blames us for not carrying on the porno tradition. Hahaz. Oh well. Then jinyang, weien and myself went to SPC to buy drinks and all. We ended up buying this charity hot-dog bun that was for the tsunami victims. Kinda lame. But yeah. People ate it. So it was for 2 good causes after all. Haha, then had campfire. Lamed around with wenyi and weien and grace and just had a merry old time. Had more fun crapping than looking at the boring skits and all. Hahaz. Then we did the songs, which was really quite fun, and the dance. Now, the first 3 aren't so bad. Hahaz. The last one arh.. can die lah. Hahaz. I probably should say sorry to dawn man. Hahz. I'm sorry I sucked. Hahaz. I don't say that all too often. But yeah. Hahaz. Then we threw our ogl and lijia, for being our ct rep. Hahaz. All was fun till the dm had to come spoil it. I already do not like him. I mean, even jeffrey wasnt that bad. Oh well. Then went to chs parade square to play games with seniors and I finally found how to play polar bear. Hahz. Yeah, and we also played some lame game like si1ben1. Which was actually fun. Hahaz. Then took 240 home with weien and slept like a log till today!

So the whole orientation was fun, cos of the rocky, enthu, happy class of s74 but was marred cos' of two incidents. It could once again get political, so I should just shut up. But yeah. I wasnt entirely pleased.

My stomach is crapping up on me now. Grrrr. Stay pain-free y'all~

t.o.w. we countdown to 05

Wooo. Bye bye 2004. Hello 2005!

Thats horribly cliche. But who cares anyway. Hahaz. So yesterday was the last day of 2004, aka the study-or-die year. And here we are, 2005! Hopefully it'll be aka the Kenneth year! Yupz. Hahaz. I'm such an alpha. Hahaz, ok, I'm joking. Who do I kid? Me, an alpha? C'mon!

Anyway, I actually wanted to stone at home and play on my xbox and finish my jigsaw and pack my room. *Big, beautiful, bold plans*, but YiXue msg'ed me last night to go organise some lame countdown shit like I did last year with phil, minjie & pui pui. So after much cross-contemplation, we decided we were gonna go for a movie marathon! Woo! Clap clap. Hahaz. Anyway, did I not already proclaim I suck at organising get-togethers? Hahaz. Only 3 of us turned up for and 1 was fashionably late. Hahaz. So, it was just us 3 tooteteers again *I like the word and this time it means phil, yx & me*. Anyway, we played pool while waiting for Philip to finally grace us and then just went slacking around. Went to buy tix for Kungfu but the seats were lousy and all, so thats that for the movie marathon. Huh! Hahaz, so we went to the arcade where I totally fell in love with that mahjong game. Its just so fun. Then we went to catch Ocean's Twelve, which I must say is pretty good. Hahaz. Ok lah, I can see why some people don't really catch up with it. Hint : Watch Ocean's Eleven. It will be so clear. Crystal clear. Hahaz. Finished, then went for a prata dinner and went back to my house. Then pui pui came and we watched movies and played mahjong and cards and all. Hahaz. Oh yah, we counted down too. Hahaz. Actually it was pretty much sedate. It was just me, staring at the second hand on the clock, going "5,4,3..1!" and then shouting "Happy New Year" while one was out of the room, another in the toilet and the last one busy msg'in. So go figure. Hahaz. But it was fun =p So thanks for comin y'all! And MinG, you should have came! You tootsie. Oh yah, I probably should apologise for being a incredibly lousy host for sleeping while y'all were watching the show. So, thats that. Hahaz, but that was quite a nice countdown party. Last year's one was better though. We really did a countdown! Maybe, its because the live show wasnt telecast this year. Oh well. I don't call the shots.

Anyway. 2004! Well, this was actually a pretty good year, once we minus the studying factor that is. Hahaz. But I guess its special because of that. Because, everyday I had to rush home to hit the books. Because, everyday I had a colossal sum of homework. Because, I had to stay up late everynight to study, try as I might to sleep before the Alfsco Van pulled into the carpark near my room at 2am. Because, it was just because of all these that 2004 was actually a helluva year! Hahaz. Though, so much was focused on studying, it was still pretty fun lah. I mean, I got to see Kimberley Locke & meet Jennifer Capriati. Hey, that counts for a whole lot. Hahaz. And I also made some great friends this year. I kinda lost it with Shawn, Yixue & Brendan before the year began, but hey, we're back on in the very least. =p I also made a great dorky friend called Poxie, whom I crap to online everyday with. Its funny, how we NEVER spoke to each other for a year and a half and then camp came and bham! Hahaz. But yeah, I'm thankful. I also got to know 34 great people from my very dearest Sec 1 Squad, all of whom I shall never forget. Geesh, the number of times you guys made me smile and laugh. Hahaz. And of course, what would 2004 be without the Os. The Big Os. I mean, its weird to say, but I feel old now, like I've aged this year. But in a good way. Hahaz. Only after the O levels I guess. Its kinda, like a point in your life, a zone of somekind, where you just cross through and start to put everything in perspective. Oh yah, I guess I have to say thanks to this shit show called "The Perfect Score", or if you've seen my friendster profile, "a grade b film with grade a inspiration". It really did help me place things in perspective. So yeah, I remember 2003 being full of trials and tribulations. This one was too, but it less strenuous and I guess I feel like I came out of this one feeling like a real winner, whereas last year, I was kinda more of like, "theres nothing I can do about this sort of shit". Readers probably don't get what I'm trying to say. Heyz. Its my blog, for my use. Hahaz.

So yeah! 2005 is totally here! Whoa, JC life is looming and lording over my head literally now. Hahaz. But, I guess I'm just gonna go for it. Stick to the age old sickened motto of being less inhibited. Yupz. So, I'm probably gonna lay on my bed tonight to think about what I wanna accomplish this year. Kinda like, the annual AGM with myself. Hahaz. Its really fun, I recommend you try it. Hahaz. So thats about it.

But while I await to practically jump headfirst from one whirldwind year to the next. I guess I should pause to think about the many tragedies going on now. Its just sad. And I guess, I really should count my blessings. So yeah, for all those who grieve and feel hurt, my heart really goes out to you. Let's make this year, and the many years to come, years we will not forget living. =p

So, for 2005, I've said it like a ton of times, but I'll say it again. Positivity transcends into power in life, and so, each day I live, I live to be the very best. Peace out y'all~

*Hmmm, somehow, I really really like this entry.* =p
