Received my results just last week. And there is a mix of emotions. One is "heng man, i passed, dunid forward modules.", and the another is , "This is only the first year and my results suck. + I'm endangering my chances to go for further studies after poly in sing." But it's quite obvious why i didnt do well. Better luck next time. Lol. During o's, i did the best among the osalians, but now, i'm the worst. SP's old zikrie.
Holidays w/o work is fun. People @ home usually feel bored, but with so much entertainment @ home, i'm busy @ home. Lol. I'm back to watching WWE, ever since pri 5 with that WWE trading card game fad. Lol, some of you people may think i'm a nut watching WWE, but its entertainment. The more lame it is, the more entertaining it is. And yes, I've been watching taiwan variety shows on my computer (ever since cr showed me a site to dl from). Back to playing DotA after quite a break. And the osalians outing (refer to Mingwei's Blog or Nigel's) which is so LOL. And yes, I'm looking forward to having the same gems with the other osalians. It'll sure be LOL-ly fun. My own class is alil too quiet and alil too boring. And yes, for the first time in my blog, fuck. School's starting again soon, and yes, i know it's gonna be boring.
The last post i mentioned that i was gonna take out my dad's guitar stuff and play again. And yes, I did the next day.
Pedals (I'm sure my dad hid some of them.)
The 2 dollar note is to compare the size. I tried all of them that day, but after that day i only used the smaller black one.
and after setup, my room was full of wires and looked like this....
If anyone of you have a messier room tag me. My room is messy enuff w/o the setups. When i saw the picture of my room. I gave one of the most original fat face, 'OMFG reaction'.
I haven bathe at that time, so i may look a little bald on the left. After staring at this photo, I feel i look alil cartoon. You can feel it by comparing my hand on the right and my face. Alil imba rite. And mingwei, who says that go poly will change. One perfect example that contradicts is right here. I havent change my hairstyle since duno when.
That's for that day. And yes, yesterday i nothing to do, so i went to relive alittle memories. Like the wwe cards which i used to play from pri 5- sec 2. And those who played cards with me during pri sch should still rmb i hold all championship title belts. Pwahaha. With my mankind. My wwe card legacy was alil interesting that mayb few people may experience. 3 hot packs (all summerslam, gay, but at least hot pack rite?). And played so many superstar decks. But it ended when my 2 albums got stolen and that gary confiscating card incident. Looking back, i tin i'm alil stupid wasting all that money. But it bought memories, so its ok.
If you guys playing wwe cards before, that's a 'Turn into the corner turnbuckle'. 6 Fortitude 0 Damage. Can't quite remember the text. I tin its smth to do with increasing the fortitude to the reversals to the next strike or grapple maneuver u play. I don't even know why the heck tt card is in my box.
The next item should still be remembered by my sec3 and 4 classmates. I show the picture u all know liaoz.
Ding, ding ding. It still in my house. I still duno where i got tt courage from. Mayb that orc was too efeojfpofzj...And that miss phang interrogation was scary.
Precious to the Osalian Legacy. The Sunkist bottle. People who never play bball with us wouldn't know how important this is.
After that last blog post, "the new year". I had my exams during late January to early February. I think its to 9 Feb. And then go for work i applied with nigel, as some yeo's stationboy or promoter, until now i don't know what job position i was applying for at that time.
Yeo's Man/Boy (Whatever.)
I was stationed at some NTUC @ Depot Heights Shopping Centre @ Depot Rd for a week. Depot Road's near CMPB, which is near Telok Blangah, which is near Redhill/Tiong Bahru, which is not near my house. Working hours usually 10am-10pm so not so bad cuz start late. The job's very relax, very very relaxed. This is how my day is when i'm working there.
I'll take lrt to Choa Chu Kang, then from there all the way to Tiong Bahru Mrt Station, then take a bus 195 to Depot Road. And always, by the time i reach the NTUC, i'm always 1/2hr or more later. Meaning i'll reach there about 1030 or 1100. LOL. But no one will say anything, cuz I don't have a direct boss there. Cuz i'm with yeo's, but there i'm the only yeo's guy, the rest are NTUC workers.
In my NTUC outlet (or most), they have a plain clothes security officer, and he usually is the most free guy in the NTUC, so he always help me mark timesheet lo. But seriously this officer is so lol, i usually come @ 1030 but he always mark my timesheet 1000-2200 straightaway when its still 11 in the morning. And furthermore he usually leave my NTUC outlet @ 1300 everyday. Which means I can knockoff early and collect free money. LOL. Joker.
To explain how slack this job is, lemme tell you how's my day like. When I just come, I will check the stocks inside see whether need replenishing, if need den replenish, if not i'll wait for newpaper to come. LOL. I'll sit on the cartons of drinks and wait. Cuz my outlet seriously no one during morning and afternoon. Then when newpaper come, i'll buy a copy. I'll then take a can of yeo's promo drink and sit down and read newpaper and drink. LOL. wtf. Then i'll sit and take my rounds ard the NTUC to do window shopping and replenish stock. If nth, i'll come out and sit again. Although on paper, my lunchtime suppose to be 1/2hr, I usually take 1 and 1/2hrs. Cuz, go back there so early aso no use, no customer.
And its quite zZz aso. Cuz walk in walk out all uncle and auntie. Not like nigel's outlet. Working staff all uncle auntie aso. If not, its black. Until last day of work den got one not-bad-cashier pop out. But, what's the point?
So, if anyone interested in this yeo's cny thing, can try next yr. But for slackers only. Cuz if u hardworking and you work there confirm feel damn bored. Rmb to bring some form of portable entertainment there.
My Rating - 8.5/10
For the yeo's job i worked there until 16 February. Then i took a rest for a week, then @ 26 February went for another job. This one less enjoyable. But got friend there so nevermind. Its some kinda stock taking job. Definitely not as slack as yeo's but if you like pasting sticker and counting stuff can try. But yeo's still the best la (Nigel can confirm this statement).
Stock Taking @ Hitachi
LOL, simply a job lo, whre you work, den have break, den work again, oh! finish work liao, den go home lo. This job got from through Nigel from FishingKaki.com. LOL, $6/hr, so ok lo. Worked with Jw A.K.A Sexy Boss. I go there i shocked sia, first time see so many part timers doing the same thing. Counting stuff and pasting sticker. About 40+ i tin. This one can't really slack. Cuz must finish the assignment. Then also under heavy supervision. But not too tough a job la. Not a slacker's job. My Rating - 6.9/10 (Mostly because of the money, if its $5/hr the rating can be as low as 3.0/10)
I worked there from 26 February to 30 February. On 26 February, I finally got my PSP, after much hesitation. I still remembered I didnt really like the idea of buying a $500 handheld console. But, gems gave me the idea to buy it. Cuz gems and lessons were freaking boring. And i couldn't keep letting myself play daidi for long. Aso will get bored. Plus if some of my Dadi-Kaki ponten school then i can play psp myself ma. LOL.
My PSP
I got myself a metallic silver colour psp with a 4gb mem card and some casing. Its seriously expensive, but nevermind la. Cuz lazy to go all the way to tampines to get one cheaper one. Frankly, its better to get it from forums, whre they mass-order to sell. By the way, people who have yet to buy one or wants to buy one, you all can check forums.vr-zone.com. Under the IT Garage section i tin, the consoles subsection. Got one guy selling v1.5 @ 229 if i didnt remember wrongly. Mine i bought @ GM (Gamemaster) for $515 (PSP v1.5 standard pack + 4gb Sandisk Original Mem card + Metal Casing + Twin Power-Data Usb cable). I know la, its ex.
Music's part and parcel of my life. That's one reason why I got my Altec Lansing MX5021 (I still like it) and Creative Soundcard and aso the reason why i'm planning to get a pair of high-end earphones.(If you're thinking sony, its a sign that you've been drawn by the brand.) I'm thinking Bose, Audio-Technica or Shure. But Shure like cheaper lei. If anyone got any of these earphones gimme comments. Was talking to Gin about audio stuff. About the expensive-ness of bose stuff. But i'll definitely spend the money if i had it.
Talking about music, i've been listening to music that are misjudged by other people as boring. But to each his own. I'm currently listening to Acoustic Alchemy's pieces. Definitely not the pop-songs with the LOL lyrics.
Acoustic Alchemy
I knew this band cuz my dad has the dvd, and whenever i sian i will take his dvds to watch. And I think by now i watch the dvd 10-20+ times liaoz. Any of you want more of their music can msn me. (which i think rarely anyone likes) I've got all of their albums.
Lol, on Thursday last week, I asked Jeremy for some Electrico song samples. Cuz i was going for the concert @ NUS the next day, which was Friday, 30 February. Not bad la. Den after that we exchange songs. And omg, he sent me the Kenny G piece, reminds mi of the time when i was in kindergarten when i listen to the cassette tape everytime i go to bed. And until now, I feel its so nice. But Kenny G only a few pieces nice. Kenny G's Albums up for grabs.
On Friday, 30 February I went for the Electrico concert sponsored by my dad. Lol. Buay pai la. The vocals not like those lame one.Wan electrico music, I don't have. Lol. Singapore Pride.
About bass lesson, I don't think i'll get it liaoz. Think I'll continue with my steel string guitar. But i've been thinking of investing in a good electric acoustic hollow guitar. Mayb budget around $2000-$3000. If anyone got recommendations plz tag or msn me.
Today I took out my dad's toys. His guitar and amp but maybe tml i'll play with the pedals too.
Guitars In My House From left to right: Pignose Electric Solid Body Guitar, Ovation Acoustic, Fender Squirez Strat, Zion Acoustic.
Yes, happy new year. Had a dream during the night of new year's eve. She reappeared suddenly. I was in school, Fajar sec. And like a tape recorder, it replayed that night. We didnt talked, i just hum-ed away just like how i did in the past.
29/12/2006 Went for sec 4 fren's outing. Was almost 30min late. The best thing is that zhihao and mingwei came for it, which was quite rare. We talked about where to go for the next 1hr+. At first it was ECP one, but later duno y changed again. So after 1hr+ of discussion, we finally decided to go cineleisure for a movie. And when we were there, we spend somemore time discussing wad to movie to watch. LOL sia, but tt's was we always do. Actually i was quite keen to watch NATM...but....
Mingwei watched "Night at the Museum" and so we cant watch that. Weiquan watched "Death Note 2" and so we cant watch that. Roy and Mingwei watched "Curse of the golden flower" and so we cant watch that.
So in the end, we watched something that somewhat gave me an idea of "pearl harbour". The movie was FlyBoys. It's freaking stereotype. You see the title you aso know what izzit liaoz. Flyboys definitely gives you the idea that its a movie on aeroplanes, and when u add guns to the planes and add some romance into the show, that's the full movie. =.='''.
Flyboys
My Rating - 3.0/10.0
Its a waste of time. It was about 2hr+ i tin. Avoid this movie, its horrendous to me. I've never rate this low on a review.
After the movie we discuss on where to makan our lunch/dinner. At first we went seoul garden but the cost was too lol liaoz. Raf recommended Ramen Ten @ Far East, so we walk from taka to far east lo.
The food there? I personally don't fancy jap food la, IMHO it sux. But the ramen was quite alright, not that bad, the only thing was that ginger taste was alil strong. It was quite spicy too. I ordered the Spicy Teriyaki Salman Ramen i tin. Forgot liaoz. The portion was really pathetic, but its expected la, its town wad. After makaning lunch went to gin's house. Before that go plaza's Auntie Lucy (NTUC) to get some stuff.
We went there to get some vodka, and some other content to mix. The auntie @ NTUC didnt let me buy and insisted on wanting me to flash my IC.
So we went to gin's house with only some lime juice and cans of tonic. Lol. I barely drank up to 2 glasses of vodka + ice cream soda. Den later after a few games of "Bluff/Cheat", I felt alil drowsy. But the amazing thing is that my face turned white. And wth is that so? I only see in movies that pple's face turn red but not white. I seldom drink alcohol. The only times i drank was @ gin's house. It was the place i first drank alcohol.
Lost
Lots of my SP frens asked me to play games with them on hamachi lately but i rejected them. Why? Because i had something else to do. Watch Lost. Worth watching, but not as addictive as prison break.
