A new era dawning

Woah!

Its been a long, long while since I last blogged. Many things happened, however, none for the better. It was an hectic year with nothing much to hold on to. I was flabbergasted at the pace in which my life has been tuned into. For a year, my life seemed to run on a life-support machine which kept me going through my mundane lifestyle. I do not have the slightest idea of how fun a pre-university life would be and I bet my last dollar that I will never be able to. Still, I am glad that my JC life brought me closer to fulfilling my dreams. I am one step away from my dreams, one year away from my goals and one race, away from my ambitions.


Anyway, besides my hectic school life, I have been busy collecting toys. I really hope to share them with you all in my next post. Till next time............take care guys.......

4/5 08 chalet

Hi guys,

It has certainly been a while since I last updated my blog. The last time I did so was right at the start of the holidays and now before I have even replenish my strength for the upcoming semester, the holidays are drawing to a close( though many are hopeful and certain of a holiday extension). This June holiday was no different from the past few years being dull and colourless as ever. However, all it look was a chalet to brighten it up and make it seem much meaningful. This chalet brought my closest friends that I could ever have to me and I am grateful of it. It was the best chalet ever. Thank you to all 4/5 people who have make it a success. Special thanks goes out to my bro Shi jie for organising it.

I have not been doing much comics review in these few posts as I have not been following up with some of them. However I do recommend you all to catch the dark avengers and messiah war of cable and xforce. I have been rather active in my collection of marvel legends toys. I would share them with you all in my next post. Byez

By the way, I apologise for calling you( girl in my class) SHE HULK........(HULK SMASH!!!!!!)..........

random

Hi peps!!!


Its been a long while since I last blogged and under mass demand(well only shu yi) I have decided to drag my fingers to the keyboard and let them dance lazily on it. Yes, life has been fair to me, god has been fair to me. I got my wish of entering a JC whereby I will have endless amount of chio bus to see. However I have only adopted a see see, look look attitude. That's the only thing that has been keeping me in school ever since it started. I go through school everyday as though I am in a monastry. Yes, school has been this boring for me. I just find it difficult to open up to new friends and to a new environment. I terribly miss my buddies at the back( sai, val,jessie). We did not give a shit about boring lessons and we would usually joke through them. Now, when I joke in my new class, I am treated by others like a clown from outer space who has lost his mind and whose sole purpose is to entertain only himself. Please man, I put in so much effort just to make everybody's day fun the least they could do was to show their disgust(LOL). For godsake, these people could not be bothered to even show their disgust. At least val or sai would turn back to me and said that I was lame. Perhaps I am being too attached to the things and people around me, so much so to a point that I would be at the verge of losing my mind should they be abruptly taken away from my life. Well, life has to go on.

unfairness in the world(guitar audition)

Hi guys,

Another week in acjc came and went like a breeze. Many things took place, some of which will forever leave a deep scar in me. Yes, that is how bad things have turned in acjc due to just one audition.

Like what I told every one that I wanted to join the guitar ensemble, I really went for the audition on Wednesday. About 70 people went to the audition. We were held in the waiting room where we waited for our turn to be interviewed. After two hours, it was finally my turn to be interviewed. I was unlucky enough to be interviewed by the vice-president, she was accompanied by another J2 senior who was much cuter.

The audition consisted of mainly two parts, oral test and personality test and here it goes:

Vice president: now i will play two notes, you will tell me which is of higher pitch.
I could not really catch what she was saying as there were at least 5 other interviews going on in the room so I asked the question again.

Me: so u want me to tell you which note you played was of higher semitone?
Vice-president:(stunned)

She gave me a look as though she did not know what is a "semitone"

Vice-president: Just tell me which is of higher pitch.

By now she had already start to express her dissatisfaction.

She then kept playing the first note for many times.

Feeling very agitated, I questioned- Sorry but arh, may I know if you are still on the first note?

By now I could tell that she had had enough of me, she passed the guitar to the j2 senior who was much cuter and asked her to continue the test.

The cuter senior then completed the test with me and started with the personality test based on my interview form.

cuter girl- So you have a music background then you should be able to read notes very quickly.
Me- Yes, it should not be a problem for me.

There is this question on the form which asked you to rate your interest in this cca from 1-10 and i gave it a 8.

cuter girl- May i know why you put 8, such an interesting number unlike others?

I wanted to humour her and made the atmosphere more relaxing so I said- Hmmm I guess its due to chinese supersitition.

the cuter girl initially did not get my joke however when she did, she gave a sweet laughter while the vice-president glared at me with the biggest and angriest eyes I have ever seen, even bigger than my sec4 PE teacher(you know who).

cuter girl- ahaha.......ok I guess thats the end of the interview we will call you if you are selected.

As you all know by now, I did not make it. I was the only one who did not make it among all my friends who went to the interview( not to mention, there were many of them). Just because I offended someone with power in the cca, I was stamped with the word failure. I was crushed by this girl/woman. She took away my dreams of learning the guitar. To make matters worse, she left me in a junction where I have no idea which route take. I had made plans of joining the guitar ensemble even before getting into acjc. Many a times when I was typing this post I had the utmost urge of using every cruel word in my dictionary to describe the vice-president.

It was indeed a immense price to be paid just to learnt this lesson. Like it or not, there will always be people in this world that are more powerful and control your destiny the only thing you can do is to change your destiny if you do not wish to suffer such a fate. Well I definitely will not bow down to this wretchful fate of mine and to all you all out there who is going through the same thing as I, I wish you all the best and may you succeed in changing your fate.

Orientation

Yo guyz,

It has been a while since I update you all on my recent happenings and I apologise for that. Well, orientation has been fun in acjc. Just as I expected it was a haven of chio bus. It was a place that any guy would like to belong in. However it was quite difficult for me to socialise with them as they were high-class chio bus. I will definitely have to pick up quickly on how to do so or else I would not be able to make full use of my time there(lol).

My first day there was not a particularly enjoyable one as I was accustomed to a whole new type of culture, one which I was hardly familar with and had lost touch with for almost 12 years. I was once again accepted into the lord's embrace. People there were warmth towards one another as they were strong believers in his lord. Being a buddhist there made me felt different. They have moring devotions everyday and morning chapels during every monday morning. However as the days got by I began to feel at home and that this was where I rightfully belong to. Every morning while people prayed, they pray for one another's safety. People there were selfless and they cared for one another. They were also very grateful for the little things that they have everyday.

The last day of orientation was especially crazy. We were supposed to perform our mass dance. Instead everyone started to line up and run around like trains. It made the whole atmosphere looked as if it was a countdown party. Lessons will be commencing soon and I am looking forward to it as it will be a whole new journey of taking in more knowledge, knowledge which cannot be bought but only acclaimed with sheer hardwork, tenacity, passion and integrity.

Thats all for now catch up with you guys very soon. Before I forget I want to give my thanks to my magnificent OG maximus and my three wonderful OGLs eileen, kelvyn and xin yue.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!!!

Yo guys,

First of all a very happy chinese new year to all and may all of you be as healthy and as strong as an ox in the coming year. Wealthy is nothing without health so may all lead a very healthy life.

Like every chinese, I went visiting to my relative's house yesterday. It was no fun at all and was quite boring. I guess the visiting just becomes much boring as one grows. I went there to eat and collect ang baos other then that the day seemed like any other day from my very boring life. Most of my cousins were not willing to open up to me. Now do not doubt that I did not take the initiative to make the first move. When one of them walked up in my direction I was smiling to her from ear to ear. Her way of showing recognition was to look at me as though I was some kind of idiot and then looked away coldly. That dampened my mood and I did not want to socialise with any of them any more. However, the younger ones were fun to talk to.

Well there goes the fun period of chinese new year and all of us are again going to sit back and wait for the next new year. School is also starting soon which I am really looking forward to. Goodbye new year hello school and homework!!!!ahaha
