A not-so-normal day in school

Today was a (not-so) normal day in school...

I managed to wake up at 8am in the morning to follow my old man and his wife to send the brother to his workplace. Then, while having breakfast at tanjong pagar, I discovered my right contact lenses was broken. And so dad had to sent me to school first since I was running late, went back home to grab me another new pair. Boo hoo hoo. What a day to kickstart his off day.

And then during molecular biology lecture, I dropped my lecture notes not once, but twice. And while trying to catch hold of the lecture notes the second time, my blue highlighter flew off from my hand, and dropped onto a girl siting two rows(!) in front of me. And I heard giggles and laughters around me in a spilt second. *faint*

Lunch was okay with the favourite people, but when we went to this health analysis at the bazzar, I almost fainted to find out that my metabollic age was far far away from the norm!!! Haha, and Alvin told me to be skeptical about it. Heh. And then, when we decided to register for this year Night Cycling (in hope to reduce my body fat content a little), only to discover the registration was full at the booth. Oh yeah, did I mentioned there was no enough seats for my computer based stats tutorial, so eventually I got to give it a miss? LoL. *dotz*

Stats lecture was the last lesson for the day. I dropped my pencilbox once, and got a big bang to see an acquaintance who I don't really like his attitude, dress sense, hairstyle to carry the same bag as me!!! Tell me about great taste! *bleahz*

The day ended with the rain started to pour after Zhenyun and guys reached their bus stop, and I still got quite a walking distance towards mine. Ironically, the rain stopped when I was on the bus, only to start drizzle again when I reached my house bus stop, which was seven stops away... -_-"

What a (normal) day!

Over the Rainbow



Somewhere over the rainbow,
I saw an white angel with lovely wings.
She will sprinkle love and joy to people,
Who saw the colour bands.

Somewhere over the rainbow,
I saw happiness and harmony.
I will love to be there one day,
But yet the sky is still dark.

(And the rain never stops).

Love Love Love

Talked to a few friends with love problems these days.
Love could be such a pain in the ass.
Is good to be single at times too.
Bless u guys.

Rainy thoughts

Tears are like rain;
There's always a seasonal downpour.
Today, the sky tears.
Today, I had a downpour too.
I would like to see the rainbow after rain.
I would wish to see the sun rays of the new season.
Summer shall be the new season (of love).

Sidetracked, mini birthday celebration for the favourite guy on Monday:

I love raining days.

Smile with Friends



Celebrate the happiness that friends are always giving, make every day a holiday and celebrate just living! - Amanda Bradley


1. Thanks Thomas the bro, for the burnt CD.

2. Thanks BaoLian the babe, for the damnfreakingexpenisve textbook.

3. And of course, thanks Ah-hua the butt, for the sweet-lovely cupcakes.

Very often, we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring and sharing, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. Little actions like this made me smile from the heart and felt much appreciated. I heart friends.

-------------------------------------

And so thursday was great. Went swimming with GuoLiang, and headed towards NTU to find MeiHua and BaoLian. Managed to saw Kris, but where's Kok Guan who's turning 25?!?!! Haha. See you people on Monday! =) KTVing with Tingz and Hua at Kbox, and I'm seriously need to frequent there more. I've totally lost tracked of new chinese songs, lol. But I still love the singing session with soulmates. Heh.

Today was a Bachelor's night-out with the guys. Had dinner at Holland Village, before heading towards dempsey hill for coffee. We ended up in this super nice cafe called "PS" that serves fabulous desserts. Though a short meet, it's still great that we are still updating our lives and remain close after 10 freaking long years. A bond since 1997, a friendship that lasts 10 years and still counting on. From boys we became men, but the tie still remains. And there will be many more 10 years to count on. =) Our laughs are limitless. Our memories are countless. Our friendship is endless.

And, I still didn't managed to eat my Ben and Jerry's ice cream!!! Hahaa, shoutout to Thomas and Peiyan, and the rest of the uni cliques, "ICE CREAM! ICE CREAM!! ICE CREAM!!!". Alvin should skip tuition for once, Zhenyun we can wait for a week... Keke. And talking about that, when are we MJ-ing?!?!?!?!?!

True friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.

The School Race




Today's an efficient day. I read n study through the first copy of lecture notes of Metabolism and Regulation; a module I have phobia with due to its "biochemistry" nature - all those catabolism, anabolism, electron transfer chain, oxidative phosphorylation, blah blah... yucks(!).



My buddy cum study mate.


Evidence showing I did study!

Managed to sell off my economics text and the no-one-can-understand-what-the-fuck-it-is-all-about biochemistry textbook for LSM1101. I hate incomprehensible textbooks that make chim stuffs more chim. Haha. Bought Voet's Biochemistry today for LSm2101, which is somehow readable. Will be meeting two girls on wednesday to sell off my organic chem and bioDiversity; hopefully they would really buy.

Managed to grab a 2nd hand NutritionNow textbook with XiaoTong's help. And I really really really got to thank Baolian for lending me Molecular Biology for THE CELL that would have cost me another 2 fifty dollars notes. And of course my dearest butt, the FedEx deliverywoman who will be bringing me the big heavy greyish book. =P Haha. Love u girls!

Managed to get my desired time slot for stats tutorial. And to add on, I have Alvin as my tutorial mate. Double yayness! Hopefully Zhenyun can get it too through manual registeration...

And to sidetrack a little, I'm eyeing on this cardigan from Topman!


Haha. Always thought that such caridgans make fat guys more fat. Haha, until I tried it today and fall in love with it. Woot. But it costs a fucking 103 bucks! LoL, wait till I lost some weights, shred off the double chin, I will get it at a smaller size! Zhen xiao mei, kao ni de supervision le!

I wanna to get back to at least this shape (dated more then 3 years ago!):

My childhood fav songs

Rainy days like today is good to stay at home and hibernate. Tomorrow I will go for a good swim (if the sun is good to me) and touch on the books. First to begin, BIOCHEMISTRY!! =)

I came upon these by chance, and pretty sure everyone (around my age) will love them, unless you have a deprived childhood or live in a different era!!! Haha. I love this songs!!! First to being with: Good morning, SIR!

Then I grew up addicted to the gambling sessions at Coral Island's Casino watching 双天至尊. Yan Fei was brother's favourite, and he did showed some great card stunts to me back then. I remembered idolizing ex-TCS actress, Lin Qian Ping in the second series. Another hottie! Haha. I was into "eye candy"-ing even at a young age!


Then at Pri 5, I was envying my brother and sister who have went through secondary schools after watching Yang Guang Lie Che. Ann Kok (Xiao Jin) was my favourite then... But now, I like her figure more. Heh heh.

And of course, I wouldn't forget the famous and evergreen Guan Hai Fang Shi song from 七月俏佳人 that everyone still know how to sing. Those days rawks.

Channel 8's drama wasn't as great these days.

Very Random Indeed



It's almost 6am in the morning and I couldn't sleep. Listening repeatedly to "Love Me" by Colin Raye; a song that makes my heart soothe whenever I'm feeling down/lost/can't sleep. Apparently, in this case, it's definitely the latter.

School officially starts on Tuesday. Had lessons from 8am-6pm with just a miserable two hours break in between. Modules taken so far are mylike except stats, which has been my most detestable subject since polytechnic, or even secondary school if A-maths or E-maths are counted. E montonous lecturer who has been teaching stats since 1997 doesn't make it any better. He's still using transparencies after donkey years. But oh yeah, I love my food-and-health lecturer. He talked as if he was drunk(!), and the notes were quite "digestable".

Talking about school, I have so many stuffs in mind. First to mention, I was happy to see many familiar faces around in campus. From those uni cliques I sat with, to those OG mates / lecture mates I happened to bump to and had small chats. Kris was supposed to be with me this year, but he decided to *jump to NTU which provides him with the direct honours. I doubt I would have the chance to do my honours in NUS, my results was far from ideal, and the 3 months summer vacation had already brainwashed away those metabollic pathways, DNA transcription and translation processes from my brawny brain. Nonetheless, I put in another extra 100% effort into this sem.

Starting with second year means I'm 1/3 through my uni life in NUS (even though I would have already get a degree back if I went to Australia a year ago). It seems so slow, but yet so fast. I intend to go for a summer exchange with GL after this academic year. Perhaps, another one to the english countries if I'm able to make it to the honours. And after graduate, I have my plans too (thou I somehow hate my capricon's nature of planning too ahead). Cause sometimes dreams could have been so different from reality. And I will end up so different from what I want in life. I really hope to do graduate studies in Canada or USA if I got a chance to, to expose to new things, and climb up the widen horizons. Coming back to reality, getting a MBA and do sales in life sciences will do fine for me though. Whatever! We will see in two years time. Randomness.

Pictures from Phuket as promised:

The Walk





The day ened up with a loud smoky fucking bang with the best friend. Nothing much, perhaps just an out-of-no-where agruement. Egoism and pride filled us both, and so we fucked. Anyway good luck dude, you have my blessing (and call me soon)!

Unleashed of the thoughts and feelings, I decided to let it all a go. Enough means enough, it's the finale. I'm all ready and set up to take the walk. Walk out of the insanity and uncertainties, find my comfort zone and gain back reality. Realism could be bitch, but still, O' freak, I fucking need to take the walk.

The walk is of misery and confusion. Confusion has me strung out and desperate. My whole world is made of disillusion and pity, nothing more than a mirage, transparent, nonexistent. Only the winners out of the fucking losers went through the walk. Some survived, some found dead. My mental stability would reached its bitter end if I don't take the walk. Caged in, locked down, I prayed to the empty god to relieve my pain, fix me, heal me, save me, or even, screw me.

Truth has exploded within me to own my shit, to do it, to be the best I can be after I have had the walk. I know I can do it though I'm scared like a pussy. But the joy overpowers the rest of me to be determined. No fucking thing is going to stand in my way. Nothing, but my ego and sneakiness that is. I truly honestly do not care anymore what people say or think, but I'm going to take the walk they asked me to. My dreams will finally come to light , and I won't be alone again.

Walking...

Last Day of Work



Yesterday saw me finishing the last day of work before heading towards VivoCity for the free movie event organised by the company. Rush Hour 3 wasn't too bad, and the free popcorns and coke made everything a good deal. Went shopping right after; and initially, I just planned to just get the white belt I wanted to buy sometimes back from River Island at 59 bucks. But the shop was having sales, so I ended up leaving the shop with another three tees, spending 99 bucks in total! -_-"

Met up the uni peeps at Netball Carnival, before heading towards the east for the famous HK cafe. Went "eek-ing" at Changi Village before calling it a day. The company was good, and so was the day. =)

Sidetracked, I will be having a very "biological" sem this coming semester. Haha. Will be taking:

1. Metabolism and Regulation
2. Molecular Biology
3. Introductory to Biostatistics
4. General Physiology
5. Food and Health


Wonder will I survive through the exams....

School blues.
