HAPPY NATIONAL DAY

TO ALL SINGAPOREANS

WE CELEBRATE 45 YEARS OF INDEPENDENTS!

MAY WE PROGRESS TO BE AN EVEN BETTER COUNTRY!

2010-08-06T23:29:00.002+08:00

Certainly a truly unforgettable NDP celebration. Once again, I don on my No.3 uniform and march to glory for Singapore.
The annual national day celebration for all schools took place today, no exception for MI.

Last years' celebration was insanely terrible
No parades, no concert, no events..., just some retarded class activity.

This years' celebration was activity packed. At least for me.
Weeks piror to the celebration, I was invited on several occation to march for the parade held in school. At first, due to my insanely small uniform, I was very hesitant...

Thanks to support from the NDP people, I got my uniform changed and finally marching today.

After 2 weeks of rehearsals, we finally pulled of the stunt. The parade was a roaring success. At least for the uniform group personals we had our standards and kept them at a all time high.

Its been 4 years since I last had a major parade. 4 years since I did drills. I miss it so much...
I will never forget the fun stuff we uniform group personals did today (even though I don't even know half of you), but you certainly made some impact in my rocking musical life.

The impromtu stage entrance was dam fun....

I will definitely join NDP parade MI 2011! That's for sure, no matter what rank I'm having!

And screw this... I lost my EZ-card....
And... I heard that floorball is about to close... Just as I was about to enjoy the game.
Been thinking about what to do next if they were to close. Knowing how screw up the school is, petition is useless. Thus I guess, it an inevitable event.
After this parade, been tempted to once again be in service to NCC (air). Was given the chance once but didn't grab it. Now contemplating to go back or not?
Complex decision....

Anyways, NDP MI 2010 parade is definitely one fun moment of my life!

Alter Bridge
Brand New Start

Against the sky
Streams of light
Call out to me and you

We leave as one
We've just begun
To find the solace we're due
This is the life we must choose

[Chorus:]
We will make a brand new start
From the pieces of our hearts
The break of day is before us

Cast your sorrows to the wind
Let the highway take us in
As we escape the disorder

This desert road
That we call home
This is our destiny
We'll chase the setting sun
As we outrun
A life of agony
God how we ache to be free

[Chorus 2x]

We'll make our way
We'll make our way
We'll make our way
We'll make our way

2010-08-01T23:37:00.002+08:00

‎...and so you order them around.... woof woof.... they reply..... they obey your order, you reward them.... they are naughty you punish them.....DOGs require these to be obedient. And so you all should get rewards for your good doing..

So we are just DOGs who are to follow your pitiful orders?

Be on time or you get no lunch?

I throw you work out of the window you start barking and jump out to fetch with your mouth?

Fuck school....

2010-08-01T23:21:00.002+08:00

Before i neglect this cyberspace of serenity. Let me force myself to blog.

Millions of events are taking place in my life.

At Promos 1(3), marks the Mid-way of my MI journey for year 1.5.

Results are as such:

Geography H2 : D

Economics H2 : D

Management of Business H2 : E

Mathematics : B

General Paper : D

Chinese : S

Showed minute improvement from last year. Had all S last year.

At least I'm cleared for promotion to Year2.

However, This is not enough. It ain't getting me anywhere at the A levels. Its the As and Bs that brings me anywhere.

The Annual Parents-Teachers Complain Session was held on Friday, 30 July 2010.

Went late, I woke up late, delay.... Breakfast and slowly GPS to school with my New baby, Milestone XT.

The session was quite fruitful (for the first time in my life). My Parents feedback lots about how retarded the school is for suspending students from class and barring them from school because they are late. Late-coming in Millennia institute is far more serious than the commercial world, in fact late coming in the Army seem less strict than Millennia institute.

My Parents had been very cross with the school since last year, when i got suspended multiple times for very minor reasons.

I complained about the dumb policies the school has, complain about the class, and rant about life. For the first time, its my turn to complain!!!

Spent my entire education life getting complains from teacher.

Oh, i forgot to complain about the Geography teacher......

2010-07-26T00:26:00.001+08:00

Blogging from my new Milestone XT!!!!

2010-07-19T00:25:00.002+08:00

Anxiety.

Its school again tomorrow....

I'm so worried about my results from Promos 1.

The Problem lies with Atychipobia. I've been failing since Secondary 3, so much that I've forgotten what it's like to pass, forgot how to pass....

I'm just so afraid if failing and being kicked out of school left with nowhere to go but the army....

God save me...... I'm praying so hard that I can survive the academic rigor of the Singapore Education system.

Please let me pass!!!!

2010-07-04T01:21:00.003+08:00

Right.... So Promotional Examination One has just ended and pass. Time flies, and its going to be that time of the year whereby I fear the results and the failure again. Parent and the teacher meeting up. Teacher's complaining their hearts out on how pathetic the child is and should drop school all together and forget studies. How much the teachers hope to get us gone....

I'm so hoping that i can score and pass this examination. My father has been nagging and wanting me to get an A in every Single subject this year. Is it possible? Seriously i doubt my own ability.

Everyone says, "Have confidence! Oi you studied for it!!! I didn't!". Doesn't mean that I have studied i'm suppose to A everything. I've never pass an Exam since secondary 3. Guess I've pretty much forgot how it feels to pass anything at all.

This time around, i'm real scare. Its my last shot at academics. If i break it, i'm going to be sentences to life imprisonment in the Army and probably risk the chance of being disowned and disgrace to the family. No rights to do anything at all. No home no identity, as good as dead.

This is no Joke people. Welcome to my family.

Already the Maternal side clearly disregards me. I'm just the darkhorse, the black sheep of the family. When the whole world goes to Special, here i am dying with the "reject" in Normal Academic (no offence taken here, it how they see us). When they all move on to Raffles, its Millennia for the lose for me. In addition, the retention.

Seem like moving on to A level doesn't seem to raise any attention at all.

I'm still cool with the whole you are hopeless and shouldn't be born into this "highly superior intelligent" family. But you just can't resist insulting and blame my life's interest don't you?

Maybe this world doesn't accommodate music at all or does it? Seem that we musician shouldn't exist in this highly sport and intelligent lead society. Are we social misfits or are we just plain stupid altogether? Is this just happening in Singapore alone or is this stereotypes spreading across the globe?

Done my own Participative Observation (MassMediaResearch!!!!). Within my schooling years, Primary school, Secondary school, Extended Junior College. In Primary school, my love for music was cultivated by the struggle to stay trendy? Having an ECA seem to be the trend back than, and so i joined a Performing art, String Ensemble (on-some-ber).

While in a Performing Art CCA, you are at the social rejects category. You are Nobody.

Secondary school, i decided, change I need (so Obama). I joined NCC (AIR). The social meter showed a jump to the mid-section. Many knew me as the "Air one".

In MI, I decided, Primary school Performing Art, Secondary school, Uniform Group, so Tertiary, It shall be Sports.

I took up Rugby, instantly!! I became popular. "Woah! you from Rugby right???!!! How awesome!" and the moment you quit. "*silence*" "Who the heck are you again?"

Notice the problem with Sports?

Back to family. So you just can't resist insulting and blame my life's interest don't you?

My Love for Guitar isn't my downfall! Its isn't my Mother fault that i fall in love with music altogether!

My Guitar is my remaining asset to keep me sane in this insane world. You should shut up when you do not know of the essences of Music. So what if i keep failing? No everyone on earth is as intelligent as you all.

This is all getting out of hand. Just don't make me burst out. There could be dire consequences. I'm not part of the Generation which bow to elders blindly. No matter your rank, seniority, if you fuck with me, i'll fuck you up.

So stop fucking my life, my intelligence, my love for Music and blaming my parent for makeing me "stupid"(in your fucked-up concept in those narrow-minded stereotype).

Get this in your already fucked nutshell! I'm going to make it in life, and i will pursue Music as a career one way or the other. Just you wait and see.

Alter Bridge
Broken Wings

As heard on the Blog.

Fight the fight alone
When the world is full of victims
Dims a fading light
In our souls

Leave the peace alone
How we all are slowly changing
Dims a fading light
In our souls

In my opinion seeing is to know
The things we hold
Are always first to go
And who's to say
We won't end up alone

[CHORUS]

On broken wings I'm falling
And it won't be long
The skin on me is burning
By the fires of the sun
On skinned knees
I'm bleeding
And it won't be long
I've got to find that meaning
I'll search for so long

Cry ourselves to sleep
We will sleep alone forever
Will you lay me down
In the same place with all I love

Mend the broken homes
Care for them they are our brothers
Save the fading light in our souls

In my opinion seeing is to know
What you give
Will always carry you
And who's to say
We won't survive it too

[CHORUS]

Set a-free all
Relying on their will
To make me all that I am
And all that I'll be

Set a-free all
Will fall between the cracks
With memories of all that I am
And all that I'll be

[CHORUS]

2010-06-18T23:23:00.000+08:00

Alter Bridge
Blackbird

The willow it weeps today
A breeze from the distance is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait
Across the horizon it's coming to sweep you away
It's coming to sweep you away

[Chorus:]
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again

The fragile cannot endure
The wrecked and the jaded a place so impure
The static of this cruel world
Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day
Long before they've seen their day

[Chorus:]
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again

Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again

Ascend may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
All you leave behind will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
But memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly and find you again

[Chorus:]
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again

Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
May you never be broken again

This post is dedicated to you.

You met him, fell madly in love.

Had countless sweet memories, memories of him so pure

Hopes of a blossom relationship has begun.

All you have wanted, all that he might have wanted

Seemed to close, yet so far away

You gave your all, to be all that he ever wanted.

Against your will, you gave.

The storm than gathered.

Ties severed.

The gloom took over.

You are left confused.

So angry, the betrayal.

How was she used as a vase?

Cruel endings are often hard to tied over.

Let us just say....

Love is blinding.

It is the shiny-iest emotion on earth.

Perhaps all of mankind could have been blind all along.

By the very Chemicals in our brain, further enhanced by chocolate.

Some say Love is sweet, so is Milk Chocolate.

Some curse it as a Bitter experience, so is the 99% Coco content Chocolate.

And once again, some said.

This is perhaps part and parcel of being a Mortal.

We love, We hate, We anger, We Sad.

Just like the weather...

the storm comes to an end.

Resulting in the bright sunny blue sky, with the fluffy clouds.

Umbrellas kept, children come out happy.

And so Should You.

At the end of these Bitter events...

We ask ourselves,

Is this ever worth it?

Is he or she worth so much tears over?

For the hurt he brought You?

I fret not, but i may be just so wrong.

I might be wrong.

This could get a one click....

and poof! its deleted.

In the ultimate end.

I might just be bullshitting.

Or am i making sense?

Its up to You, whom i dedicate this "comeback" post to....

Make you see that Sunny bright clear blue sky with the fluffy cloud, and perhaps a rainbow to go along.

Cheer up.

A humble friend,

Shawn.

Again i went hiatus for like a gazillion years. Been so busy with school; i had virtually no time to blog. (perhaps its Facebook that stole time from you my blog)

Many agree that Facebook is a very bad distraction.

Let this post be a catch up on my life. (blog is where we record our lives isn't it?)

So 2010 begun, had quite an emotional low start. Having to repeat the first year at Millennia institute was humiliating enough.(at least to me personally) An original glorious entrance to an A level institute became an embarrassment.

The following account shall be fast forward.

The year begun with an additional 2 week holiday. Great way to start a year!!!

Initial 3 days of Year 1.5, was spent as a emotional, spiritual?, Meditative? camp for repeat students to Clean the soul and purged it of our bad doing of 2009. To "restart" once again i 2010 and do well! Thy Soul shall be pure!!!!

There after, Orientation, ROUND 2!

And thus so, the Da ja vu begins. Almost everything of 2009 repeated in 2010. Same scenarios, exact same setting. The only difference lies with the identity of the people around. The poor little 1993 children, all with their inquisitive faces stepping into what know to them as a "Holy" A level institute. "Oh thank the lord! I still manage to get into an Alevel institute! NICE!" I bet many had that thinking after the second day. Poor children, WELCOME TO HELL!!!! This is Make-Sure-you-Drop-out institute mind you!

Retention soon kicked in. watching as your own ex-classmate took charge of you. Being treated as if you are a young innocent child. In fact, i might be older than some of them. However they did quite a job in planning and handling the Orientation. Kudos to them nonetheless. The only error in this year's orientation, WHERE IS THE INTERACTION? In the end, I DONT EVEN KNOW A SINGLE SOUL IN MY OWN ORIENTATION GROUP??

Orientation. Oukoku 2010.

Went through the same routine. Got into Taira 3 (just like Athenian 3!!!)

Met new friends.

Who eventually became good friends, Keet, Ben, Derrick, Asmita, Yan and Jonathan. (Hope our one extra isn;t wasted! We shall be in year 2 next year)

Again! MI dance. Highlight of MI Orientation. (even stated on Wikipedia, so its a must feature on my blog)

During the event, the 93' kids had a raging hormone. Most went amok with excitement, first time with a girl dancing?

Anyways....

I had a awesome partner for the Dance! Eleanna! haha And she kept laughing at that Green Jacket guy behind me!

Zoom fast forward!

And so Orientation ended. I got into 10B5, as i have expected it. Jonathan would be joining me again this year, and for the next three years, he shall entertain the hell out of me! haha Nice!

Formal classes begun. Almost a whole new set of teacher, with more weirder demands and expectation. A whole new set of classmates to adapt to. Did i forgot to mention, i'm like 2 years older than these innocent little children?

How to not feel alienated from them, the generation gap. 2 years, Northpoint became Northpoint 1 and 2. Thats a big change, which goes to show how much different there is within 2 years.

10B5 started with an overwhelming huge number of students, perhaps record holding in MI? It was as Big as 5A i guess. Flooded with innocent souls who thinks of A levels as child play.

Lessons containing the exact same content soon flooded my life once again. This is what i hated. B6-er would have know how i hated H1 Maths for being a complete reduced version of A maths. Than you would ask, than why retain you dope!?

Good question! How the fuck would i know? Am i really that hopeless? Perhaps...

Though i so hated the repetitive lectures, i had to pay special attention to my countless lectures. A level is no childs' play game. It is war! I have to pay attention to the "battle strategies" taught during lectures. Methods and ways to use the "weapon a.k.a PEN" to kill the enemy, "Cambridge" the Beast.

(alright too much fantasy here. The more i read fantasy, the more i'm cranked.)

Fast forward. (Shortening the post. plus... i cant think)

March holiday came.

Completed my final Diploma module, Mass Media Research. Which later became the topic of my Graduating Project which became my greatest project in all time!

Mr Omar was a fun loving, eccentric and weird. However, he was a good teacher and taught well, despite my C grade.... I didn't study throughly.

Back to school. The boredom continues....

At this point in time, i was beginning to not like my new class. No offence to 10B5.

Zoom.

MI mart. Another "great" event. Hated this event so much in 2009. It was a great flop, just like all other "Major" School event in MI.

Planning "started" as early as the middle-beginning-ish of school 2010. Just the same, split into three groups, create the proposal and get rejected.

Took over as assistant leader at the brim of the event. The original leader had left for studies in a better place. Might be a good choice for him.

Had information jam pack into my head about the business. To my dismay, I invested in a business bound to fail.

On pre-Sale, we barely sold more than 5 items.

Event day, we were more or less screwed. I already given up on the event. Sorry to my Group. Blame the school for my slobbish attitude toward a major event in your Business studies life.

Next biggest event.

Transcendences.

The only Medium in which Musician in Millennia can ever do anything. I must comment. Musicians in Millennia aren't treated well enough. We are treated as a bunch of hopeless fools. Whereby you just rather love those who can run like a cheetah or those who would just make the school famous. What with being famous for sport only, when 75% of your students are dying after their A levels? I'm pretty sure there are studies that Music could help you achieve greater heights than running like a mad ass. No offences to Sport people, i'm in it too.

Audition for transcendences.

Went horribly wrong. Had a great fallout with the people i pull together to apparently make "my dream" happen. I agree, i was the jerk in this case. I led to my own downfall.

Thank you Dhivya for still coming down specially to audition despite me being an ass.

and Keet for being the friend.

Alright, so i didn't fit into the "theme". Since when there was even a theme??!! Countless incredible musicians were rejected. I was shock at the results. No news of a planned theme was given. Musicians went in most prepared and gave their all, and got rejected. Great! just great....

MI! You just wait! 2011 Transcendences, I will be on that stage! Rocking your Sorry asses!

Concert day!

Bought the ticket the day before, alone. As usual, i always have to do things alone.

Went for the concert.

It turned out pretty awesome.

With incredible acts like, Orange Pulp, whom brought the house rocking with Sweet Child O' mine. Awesome musicality, awesome shredding by the Guitarist.

When all the event's finally came to an end. The Examination anxiety kicked in.

June holidays was approaching, which equates to examination with in 2 months.

Its all study and nothing else.

Alright this kind of summerised up my life up till the Beginning of June holidays.

For now than.....

Keep Rocking on those incredible licks! Rock on \m/

Its been long since i really Blogged about my musical life.

18th Birthday Celebration Post

16 December 2009 marks my 18 year old milestone age. Thought the age for maturity in most country, in Singapore, you are still a kid. Thanks to the Censorship Board of Singapore, there is still a limitation to an 18 year old, an R21 film.... (been having that debate since my last Mass Comm Module)

As an 18 year old, we have the rights to...., have sex, drink liquor,buy 4D, get our driving licenses, and for Males, we get equipped to kill.

16 December 2009 marks my 18th birthday. From this day on, i'm pretty much legal to do many things.

Now on to a unique celebration. (at least its unique and special to me!)

My Father was oversea in Suzhou, China on job attachment, to help solve some ridiculous problems with the product he was working on. My Father went away for 10 day. And so i took this opportunity to venture out. Explore my new rights. Push the boundary of my parent ridiculously tight laws.

On the day, i woke up pretty late in the Morning. What a waste man! Almost the entire Birthday Morning was wasted to sleeping. Once up, went for Lunch and had a quick celebration with my Mother and Siblings. Had Cake. Than took off to Eric's place to Jam.

We Jam till dinner time and went for food. There after Dinner, We made our way to meet with with a new friend, Charan. He introduced us to the different clubs he knew off and his experiences. It was funny.

At Bras Basah, around Supperclub, we meey with more new friends. Soon we were on the way into Supperclub. And my first clubbing experience started here.

In the place, the music was insane loud. Things were pumping hot inside! Funny thing, its ladies night..... Ironic...

I must say its a good experience clubbing. Something that i never ever dream doing in my life. I actually went insane and decided to club on my birthday.

Ladies night... Guys had to wait till 12 to enter the dance floor. Thus leading to us drinking the night away, waiting to dance... At the dance floor, the music was heart-thumping!!! The beats were pumping away. All around were people squeezing to get a place to dance. Its was a wild experience!

One i will never forget!

And there goes my 18th birthday!

2009-12-25T15:43:00.000+08:00

WISHES ALL A HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND A MERRY NEW YEAR!!

2009-12-16T00:31:00.000+08:00

I AM FINALLY LEGAL!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

And there goes the End of my First academic year in Millennia Institute.

I will most certainly miss 09B6 my first class in MI.

09B6, you had gave me the time of my life. Never in my Life did a class took me as a Human. In my previous classes, i never once spent a day without being insulted. But in here, i gain encouragement from you all.

I'm Sorry if i had retained despite your encouragements. I promise i will heed all your advices and work hard next year to obtain better results and get to year2 in 2011.

I'm Sorry to all if i had cause any distress and hard to you in anyway throughout this year.

I hope 09B6 will remain intact for life, in spite of the fact that we are to go separate ways due to certain circumstances.

Lastly, I LOVE 09B6!!!!

P.S i regret not being able to sing the song completely.

Dedicated to 09B6 from Shawn

Time of my Life - David Cook

I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart

So I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun

I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.

09B6 is indeed the time of my life!!!

RETENTION!!!

2009-10-25T11:55:00.002+08:00

Tomorrow is the Day whereby Fate shall be decided.

The Annual Promotion exercise, always being anxiety to all students. Of course i'm not Excluded.

In Accordance to how my Promo2 Examination goes, I'm very much in for this Exercise. My Moronic Face would be flashed, While all teacher would Kill Each other to get a chance at insulting.

However, i really do hope for good words to be spoken for me to get through to Year 2 in Millennia Institute.

I do not want to Waste another year. Already, I've spent an additional year in Secondary school for my O levels. And i am already going to spent another year in MI for A level. Everybody has been complaining, why am i wasting time?

Oh never mind about the long route.

What is important now is to get through to next year; No matter Promote or Advance.

I can't just fail at this instances. I can't simply let those who thinks i'm dead for life, grab hold of a joke out of my insane dreams of getting in a JC/CI and ultimately get into NUS.

I simply can't let that happen.

But than again, results speaks otherwise. I'm fucked up now.

So it's just pray Pray PRAY.... for a good Promotion exercise for me tomorrow.

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus:

You Better Prayyyyy ay ayyy!!!

2009-09-02T00:31:00.002+08:00

Been on Haitus for far too long.

Hectic life, reducing my leisure time. (thought i might have spent it on even more wasteful stuff than this online Journal of mine, this Citizen journalism i step into.)

The Promotional Examination 2 is around the bends, like in 3 weeks time. A dam short time frame. Wonder how am i going to pull off this Stunt.

I have pass throught this year. Get to Pre-U 2.

Being already in MI, I have already set a certain Expectation for me. Now it seem everyone is waiting to just critisize me the moment i fail. Expecially those Sour grapes or whatsoever. After that Huge Hoo-Ha on the insane Shawn trying to get to JC siah!!! Wah Act only!!! Sure fail de lar him!!!

I'm worrying now. How am i going to pass throught the exam without getting the Mental Blockage systoms that surface during the Economics test i had recently. I was so dam dissapointed. I had fruitfully prepared for the test. Been analysing the question for at least 2 day. Breaking throught only the night before. I knew i had to just practise, write throught the essay at least once.

I'm a pure Tectile learner. First Discovered by my Physic Teacher back in AMKSS, thanks Mrs Kok/Miss Lew. I need to be constantly on my Pen to study effectively. HOWEVER, it doesnt pull off. Laziness too over. Resulted in crappy O level.

Now, result in Crap result for my Results in MI. Just great.

Yeah, Back to the near approaching Promotional examination 2.

I just so hope intellegents can finally be part of Shawn, and be able to score a decent Pass to get throught this year.

Expectation has been lowered to the Minimum. When dy/dx is Less than Zero.

Lastly, i just hope my family's finances can just get better....

I dont wanna life that Frugal lifestyle.

I want to Satisfy my Needs and wants.

Onwards to Pre-U 2!!!

Testing Uploading Function of Blogger.

People has been complaining!!!!

2009-08-09T09:29:00.003+08:00

Miss blogging for quite a while.. The busy Schedule had Barred me from Blogging.

First of all Today marks the 44th Independent day/ Birthday of my Homeland Singapore. Adding on, its 50th Anniversary of Self Government.

Happy Birthday Singapore.

Lets start with yesterday's celebration program before i fly into the details of Parents-Teacher-Conference a.k.a Parents Day(MI).

The 7th of August was the stipulated day for Millennians to commemorate our Nation's Birthday. This year round, we had the most simplified and boring celebration ever in all our acadamic life. I literary spent my life staring at the Ceiling, Reflecting "Why am i in school for today?".

Was so used to watching a School based Mini NDP parade. This year it was missing. Scaled down celebration to save time and Money, That was what principal Mr Tan Chor Pang Said. I can't blame the school for this...

Oh well there after some Fun Begun. The Expected insane frenzy for Camwhoring after school took place. Since it was Be-Your-Self Day, all were in their home clothes and thus able to go out thereafter.

Went to Vivocity with roughly 1/3 of the class. The Bus Journey was Enlightening enough, given the short span of some morning snoozes. Reach Harbourfront in a blur.... haha. Some others too.. haha.

At Vivo, we spent time slacking, learning Magic, talking, some had some catching upon friendship, joke, laugh, eat, waste time, stare at blank space, make a nuisance at Toy R' Us

and plenty more to waste our life away. ha

But it was worth while to relax. Take a Day break before going back to relentless countless mugging session and homework.

Now backtrack..........................................

PTC/Parents Day at Millennia Institute.

Went smoothly had minimum complains. Just being too talkative and all.

Saw the Atrocious results, Fail all H2 Pass 2 H1.

This Spells Retain.

Talk to both my HTs and my Econ's teacher, Mr Lai.

Had many comments and had to take personal corrective order.

Other than those, the PTC this year wasnt as "eventful" as past year. A good Omen??

So Right now..... Forward to promoting to Pre-U 2 in 2010!!

2009-08-06T00:37:00.001+08:00

Sigh..................

The Pressure is on....

2009-07-24T22:54:00.002+08:00

Ouh Great... i finally got back to school after that 7 Days.....

However instead of actually cheering up more. As always depressing Results and outcomes over took every body's already troubled minds.

I, of course weren't spared also. Once again History resurfaced. Once again I flunk my examinations. Virtually failing all my H2 examination.

Again that atrocious set of results set me all messed up. And finally this year, the Numb-ness against virtually flunking a major examination fade away. The Hit was Hard alright.

Once thought that it was a fresh new start in MI. Thinking if i just push a little harder than the very minimal effort place in the Lousy O level would do the trick. However, Promotional Examination gave me a harsh reality check!!!

Oh So innocent me!!! What the Fuck was i thinking??? Trying to get away with that same bloody Study attitude i thought was so pretty true.... Thinking that that dumb "determination" could work?? Dream on you faggot Shawn. Its the harsh insane Route u chose.

Now Why am i just basing everything on the stupid excuse that " Oh Fuck!!! I didn't know What the Fuck to expect... So..... oppssss i fucking Fail....."

Grr..... i just wish to fucking bang the wall right now.....

How retarded can I possibly get???

What set me thinking very hard about what i should really do with my life right now was what was commented. If this were to persist, I could well off be expel from the School. with the reason " Oh!!! Due to your result we find that u are not suited for a A level path"

Scary but true...

I so do not what that to really happen. I Chose to take this path to Prove....

Evidences just got flunked down the drain.

I'm Fucked up once again.

Lost in the Atrocity of my Epic Failure.

What the fuck am i to change now?

This is Preposterous.

2009-07-20T21:56:00.000+08:00

I WANNA GO SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2009-07-18T11:57:00.003+08:00

" It isnt about how big the wound is, but about how deep it is actually" - Koh Zhao Kang Shawn

2009-06-01T22:43:00.006+08:00

First!!
Sorry Sylvia for falling asleep on u while chatting for two consecutive night/early morning.

Had a weird day!!!

Because of the late night, i woke up only at around 12pm. With my mother Fuming mad as usual.
There after the day moved smoothly.

Soon after i gain my senses, i was being mysteriously drag to my Grandparents house. Which is in the next block from my house. Reason : To Repair a faulty Television. Or Remote control?
I'm being Taken as my father Successor as the Family's-friendly-Electrical-repairman.
Went across to find that the final result was that the Television's receiver is spoiled. Had tried using a brand new remote control which broke straight after tryout, i dropped it and in pieces it went.

Lunch was rewarding. Had my Favourite Crayfish pasta at Swensens. And a surprising Root Beer Float. With my Mother only.
I'M SO JEALOUS!!!! KENNETH GETS TO BE AT PULAU UBIN !!! OBS!!!!!!!!!.
and Cheralyn is at Dairy Farm Adventure Centre at Bukit Timah. Thus leaving me alone at home.

Fast forward.

Once at home. People's Association came to bug my Mother for Kenneth's bloody medication. Oh Fuck, why do all this organisation have to be so inflexible? Why trouble us? Cant you people just do everybody a freaking favour by just travelling to the nearest Pharmacy to get a Substitute for him? Can any organisation be more lazy? I got this immersed anger about such attitude from such organisation.
In the End, hired a taxi to get us to Punggol Jetty. Where ferries, ferry Outward Bounder wanna-be to Pulau Ubin. I must comment, The taxi driver who took us there in his Luxurious car was kind. Quite talkative, and had to ask passeger for directions. I have Prevail as a Geography student!!!
Managing to search through the map at breakneck speed to direct the driver. Proud to be a H2 Geography Student.

Had lots of Nostalgic feeling at Punggol Jetty. Had Fond memories of me three years back, being overly excited to even feel the weight in my Bag to be at Pulau Ubin. All the fond memories of my very own Outward Bound experience started to reemerge. Awwww........... I wish i was back than, having the fun of my life. Miss Marco Polo!!! haha

Here are some pictures i took at the Jetty. The Sun is shining bright..... I love Pictures of the Sun.

Right!!!!! ---------> Back to reality.

Had Dinner at Compass Point with Mum!!! At MOS Burger's, Usual MOS Cheeseburger, and my Favourite Iced Tea with Milk - LOTS OF MILK -.

Fast forward.

Went home in my Father's Car.

At Home ,
Watched a Documentry about the Tiananmen Square incident 20 years ago.
Watched Dogfight on History Channel as well.

And than after Blogging like a Avid Daily Blogger.
Its weird, i've been blogging like daily for the past few days........

What happenning?

OH SHIT!!!! MUM'S GONNA GO INSANE AND PAINT MY ROOM BLUE TOMORROW.
Why must she always create problems for herself to go mad about? RAH!!!!!

2009-05-31T23:35:00.006+08:00

Woke up late to meet Tasha and Ewanny at Bugis MRT to get to the MacDonalds beside Bras Basah complex.

I woke up at like 9.45, the intial planned time to be meeting them. Dam!! I'm so sorry Ladies!!!

Soon enought i did everything at Breakneck speed and teleported to the MRT station to get to City Hall.
Now i had to get to the MacDonalds myself. Its a good thing that i've been farmilier with the route to Bras Basah Complex. Thank you David for forcing me to walk there everytime we are Out to Jam during last years Post O level's holiday.

Reach MacDonalds at 11am to find Rachel Tasha and Ewanny happy chatting (girls topic). Too bad i'm the only guy there.
I had my second Double Quarter pounder meal at last!!!

There after the study session commenced.
Throughout the Session, Ewanny kept pushing me to do maths. haha... thank ar!!!
It was till about 3.40++ that Tasha and Ewanny had to leave. Bidding them goodbye, left me and Rachel alone to continue till about 6.30, when i accompaned her to get some groceries from Jason Supermarket (Raffles City).

There after walk her to fer destination for her to meet her parent for dinner and left for home.
Before that i went for a stroll at Bras Basah complex - For Swee lee and the other guitar shops of course- . However, everything is sady close. Nothing can be blame except that it is SUNDAY!!!!

Proceed back to Raffles City to "cut" through to the MRT station in Air-condition condition. Screw the hot wheather!!
But on my way throught, my attention was caught by the melodious sounds of a Quartet.
The Fritz quartet, played very nicely. And how would a music addict like me walk away from souch a golden opportunity to catch such a live perfromance.
During the performance, i was given this Phamplet on the Singapore Arts Festival. And to my great amazement!!!!! The closing ceremony will be held in YISHUN!!!!!! AND THERE IS GOING TO BE FIREWORKS LITERARY BESIDE MY HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!
WOOHOO!!! It will be on 13 and 14 of June at roughly 8pm. So people if want to watch it u can find me to be your One stop Yishun tour guide!!!

2009-05-29T20:48:00.003+08:00

Let me begin this post with,

I LOVE 09B6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Done so many thing with all my beloved classmates.

Last weekend , or rather Sunday, I had a wonderful Studying session with my study group consisting of Rachel, Natasha, CS and John. And Sunday's Guest appearance was by Ewanny.
Went to Changi Airport to study. And i felt quite insane to be doing that but it was worthwhile!!!

On Wednesday, It was my first official examination in Millennia Institute. MY GP PROMOTIONAL EXAMINATION 1 !!!!!

The paper when well for me. THANK YOU ERIC for taking the time to save my Life. Followed his Holy advice and manage a proper essay. Hope i will get a good mark.

After the paper, The fun started. ( After quite a while of waiting at MacDonald). Sylvia, Fawnia, Rachel, Akram, Jed, John and ME!! went for a Seoul Garden massacre. It was a total Crazy time. Went to the branch at Causeway point (Woodland) and had a great feast. It was like my Lunch and Dinner!!!. Akram and Sylvia ate their hearts out!!! The amount they eat was exorbident , amazing. You have to be there to see it. Especially Akram. (NO OFFENCE GUYS!!!!!!)
I take my hat off to you guys!!!
We went from 1.30 to like 6.30?? First time in my life that i done such stuff. It was fun!!! Lets have more of this!!!
At 6.30, we went out of Causeway to one of the neighbourhood to hang out at a Playground to "CamWhore" -as they(general public) calls it-. Took so many crazy photo with Sylvia's Beloveded DSLR camera.

**Will post the photo when i get it!!!!!

Next biggest fun event that realli brought us together more the Teambuilding game in the SEL Camp which ended just now. For the first time in my life i actually benefited from the external courses planned by a school. Example, the Personal Grooming workshop, the Life connection workshop. however the Financial literacy did not gave me anything. Only had fun playing the CashFlow board Game.
The Best part was surprising to me. The Teambuilding game segment. To me my belief is that these camp's Teambuilding games are usually/Largely composed of LAME and immatured stuff that does not benefit one. How every MI made me beg the differ. all was Constructive. We bonded further.

After the whole session. Our Class, 09B6 manage to Clinge the Price for being the best class amongst the rest who when throught the game.
That really made us all wild and crazy.
Than to dinner time.

This was the time that the 16 PAX dinner group (largest so far) had a great time at Pastamania. But before that, 11 of us got Prank by Fawnia, Diana and Aisyah. The event goes like this:

At the beginning, a small group of us went off the West Mall first to get a place at the Foodcourt ( the original planned Dinner location) There after Fawnia and Gang came. However in the event somehow, somewhere, somewhat, Someone, Decided to go to Pastamania. Thus the decision was final and thus the crowd of 16 of us started to agend to Pastamania. So a few of us walked first and we were in patches of "blue" people. That was when Fawnia, Aisyah and Diana slip away quietly throught the crowd into the lift lobby and went down to the location without anyone knowing.
Thereafter, we found out that someone was missing and some freaked out.

Fast forward, Becomming to painsaking already.... Word ad more words!!!!

At Pastamania, we met them smiling at us happily. All was confused.

Than dinner and we went home.

Looking forward to the Classoutting both CS and me painsakingly planned.
SENTOSA!!!!!

LOVES 09B6!!!!!

All pictures will be out soon..............very soon...........after i get it.......sooon..........

Had a Great Day!!! Did Many enjoyable things... Blah blah ( Cheesy blogpost starting)

Did many things!!

Got Dug right out of bed again!!! Can't a person ever get some Decent beauty sleep?
Didn't get any Breakfast today... As usual... What can i expect?

However, I had a very HEAVY Lunch with my Grandparent. My Father invited my Grandparents to Lunch at the Sembawang Shopping Centre's outlet of Aston Restaurant. I feel i have sort of lose contect with my Grandparent for too long a time or something like that. I didnt had much to talk to them about. I feel very Bad and guity of such case. When i was a young innocent Boy, they took care of me.

After a short walk at Sembawang Shopping Centre, i was en route home to get ready to agend over to meet Natasha at Douby Ghaut MRT to study with Rachel, John and Chin Siang!!!

However, i didnt leave the house till 2.40, Which means that i could only reach Douby Ghaut at 3.15 or so. Luckily Natasha came Late ( Not blaming her) ( if u read this no need to feel sorry ar)
So i reach Douby Ghaut exactly at 3.15!!! Just on the Dot for the Stipulated time given by Tasha in the morning. It is indeed my First time being so On-the-dot. Laughter*

Met up with Tasha and Went straight to The Catay (beside Plaza Singapura) to find Rachel. Whom piloted the Study group plan. Originally the plan was for Starbucks to be the Venue however the crowd, we decided on SMU. However, I am foreign to everywhere i went today.
There after the Trio met up with John at the entrance of SMU. We went in and found a Random spot to start work. We ended up at the School of Information Technology?? (if i'm not mistaken again)

By the time we got to start it was roughly 4pm. Nevertheless we did work didn't we? Laughter*
There after i started with Geography - Essay....eh...-. So as we did Chin Siang was happily en route to the venue. He finally arrive at roughly 5++pm. And we persevered on till around 7++pm. Partly because of this couple who ask us the favour of looking after their stuff.

By that time most of us were dying of hunger. So we proceed to the next agenda, Dinner. Went to the Foodcourt at Plaza Singapura. I had an Epic queue for my food. Soon after we finally had out dinner. And soon enought Tasha had to leave. Biding goodbye , continued our dinner.
After dinner the remainding four of us had a hearty chat. And i guess we had tooo much Crap for Rachel to take. Laughter*

We decided to go off at roughly 10++??

Got home throught the train. and Reach home at about 11?. There after, I FOUND OUT THAT MY ECONS FILE IS MISSING IN ACTION!!!!!!
( i didnt even bring it for the study session)

So i sat down after a Bath and blog now. Since i havent been blogging for ages.
In The End i did a little Geography and Half of the "rewriting of Management of Business turtorial"

So Anyways guy!!! You Gave me an Enjoyable time studying. Lets have more of this in the future!!!

NOW SLEEP...................................................................................................Snores*

Photograph for Laptop Wednesday.

Since the start of Term 2 of School. Wednesday has since became Laptop Wednesday. It has became 09B6's Routine of bringing their laptop to school to Burn the three free periods we have at hand.

See the size different between ASUS laptops? So different aint?

The White one Belong to Cynthia. The Black one's MINE!!! hahaha

John, Jed and Natasha Getting ready to Start work.

Me on Game?

Oh shit got exposed.......

Cynthia's Workspace. Lol

John, Jonathan and Natasha Constantly at work!!! @ 09B6 we are hardworking people huh?

John with Tasha's Bag lol. Look so small!!!

Tasha With John bag... Look quite Big ar???

All photographs in this post has been proudly sponsered by Cynthia. It was taken using her phone.

2009-04-11T01:12:00.005+08:00

Heavent really been blogging for a very long time. Subtracting those that i randomly added during Mass comm project.

Its been a term in Millennia Institute. What have i achieve...? I wonder...

Started out in Millennia Institute all lonely and Green (my uniform colour amkss...).

Totally alone.

Made new friends during the orientation. Became pretty good friends there after.

Joined Rugby as a CCA, but after a term, i don't feel i'm anywhere cut out far a sports CCA. Better off in a Music Based CCA Where my real Talent and passion lies.

SO the first few weeks of my life as a Millennian started out in various Lectures and "Bridging" courses. Some of these lectures were killing me throught the extreme boredom while some were Enriching enought...

Soon enought i got into 09B6.

The Class was filled with people from different background, as usual i feel so foreign (but of course everyone feels that). First friends i made in B6 was John KOH and Jasveer ("nice" chap). It seem like it gods will that i'm to befriend John first. Ahahaha.... Yea... Is it because of our Surname?

Than Natasha, whom i met during the Geography outdoor learning activity.

Soon enought, i started to blend, Made good relationship with good friends like ChingSiang(CS), Aisyah , Onpailin or just Pailin (Water Bucket club President/ Drink water will high de), Cynthia (Is a shocker that we live so near each other ain't it?), Natasha (we met during the Geography field trip), John KOH ( We believe we were from the same villiage centuries ago), Jasveer ( Like i said, "Nice" chap looking but the mind....).

SO, my Subject combination ended up with, Management of Business, Economics and Geography as my H2 subjects, Mathematics, General paper, Chinese, were my H1 subjects.

Its so irony that i actually took Geography. As a secondary school student, i did not harbour any hopes of taking Geography at all during the Seconday 2 streaming exercise. I chose Literature.

But was force into taking Geography. Ok this is the past. But it was my constant interest in the physical aspect of Geogrophy that spur me into taking Geo at H2 haha.. ok enought ratlering.

So School at Millennia Institute stated out with a good footing minus the CCA part.

Out of mood to continue this post.

THY SHALL END HERE!!!

2009-03-18T18:21:00.002+08:00

Random Blog post in the library when i'm suppose to do the Mass Comm project.

All my thoughts that are bursting outta my Brain!!!!

Over pressurized brain!!! I'm feel over Exhausted. Just Beaten out. Unable to do anything.

Rugby pushing me way too much.( i hate it) Chased by Studies (rah!!!!!)...

at this point in life, to me what matter's the most is studies. Yepp!!! i know most people would comment that i'm crazy. It's never Shawn that would Drool over studies...

But the D7s in my O level's gave me a huge Bang.

I'm so in a MESS NOW

So fUCKED UP...

i'M GOINNING BLOW!!!

2009-02-02T21:10:00.003+08:00

I spent most of my Early Morning Watching the inauguration of US President-Elect Mr Barack Obama.

The Show over at Singapore on Channel News Asia was quite boring. With all sorts of interview...

Oh for crying out loud! I just climbed out from under my rock and realized I have not updated this since long before Shakespeare wast a boy... You would not believe how tidy my house now is. Apologies to my regular readers! Even the little blue ones!.

I am lost in a sea of pseudo-olde-english with finding Entertainment, learning to fart the theme to neighbours, just generally being asleep, dreaming and chancing to every Lost Boy that crosses my path, my day seems to be a litany of stuff and giggles from the second I am woken by murderous Teletubbies. I am plotting and planning. Period.

I declare solemnly I will make more of an effort to blog more often. You wanna test me? This is for my ever faithful, devoted public..

The last post of 2008

Today marks the end of 2008.
Time really flies.
When 2009 comes it would be most exciting. Tertiary Education...

Shall blog about eventful today.

Woke up pretty early... 9.50. Set my phone to ring. The best way to wake me up. I discover it during my China exchange program to Chongqi ,China.

Again by the time i sober up. My mother with Kenneth and Cheralyn was already out. At 11++ i called Ma. It was than i heard that my Paternal Grandparent would come for dinner.
Soon all came home...

Than my Maternal Grandmother made a surprise visit. At least it was surprising to me.
She came to teach my Mother how to make Ngoh Hiang ( dunno the English translation)
I also sort of learn some from her. I have little talent in the kitchen you know?

So Ma Cooked Dinner. Starting with the Ngoh Hiang.
I fried them :)

Right than, Press the fast forward button.....................................................................>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

At around 6++
My Father came home fetching my Paternal Grandparents with him.
Soon Dinner was ready.
We Sat down and add out belly full.
The Toufu with Pork and Ngoh Hiang were the best.
Than dessert...

Watch the 7Pm show on Channel 8. Before my Grandparents went home to watch Little Nyonya
Continued to watch Television till the Countdown party started.

At 10.30.

The Countdown started.
We went Channel 5 and Channel 8 Hopping through advertisement.
Had some nice performance.However Those on Channel 5 looked so plastic.
They seem to be lip Syncing.
Soon 2008 came to an end.
at the stroke of Midnight.

Hell lot of Firework was blasted. It was one of the most beautiful firework show i ever seen. I should have been there.

Than i remembered to sent out New year greetings. Got angry with the Telecom service. Couldn't send all. Phone die out on me....

Anyways....
It 2009

2008-12-29T00:03:00.006+08:00

One day i can never forget.

Did so many things all in one day.

Jamming session No.3
Primary 6J of Mayflower Primary School's Gathering.

Let's start with the Jamming.

Before meeting Ben and Eric at Yishun MRT for lunch at 12.30.
I was Blasted for the Aircrafts that i have. Just because i wasn't able to build up the SuperCub everyone blame me...

Ok Fast forward to lunch.

Had lunch at the Japanese Food Court. I went For the Bento set. The other two went for the HotBowl Rice... Take so long to come and eat....

Ok Fast Forward to Jamming'

Went to Jade Music for the Jam studio.
Their Service was quite good.
AS Told on Jade Music's Website: Reconditioning and maintenance is done regularly and there's no need to worry about faulty gears. The studio is also perfect for making own videos or clips because of the ambiance.

At the Studio, We Played songs mainly from Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.
Pictures will be in the post Below...

We Spent one and a half hours Jamming. Which is 24 Bucks of Fun...
At 4.15. I had to Fly back to AMKHub to ,finally after 5 year, meet my Primary school classmates.

At AMKHub. I met up with Alex and Yeow Jie. Than we met the rest at the Zone X Arcade outside Catay Cinema.
Wait for a while for some others to come before setting off for Dinner.
At first everyone had no idea what to do next...
Everyone was asking Where to eat??
I don't know who suggested Steamboat but we went for that.

During the Steamboat, we talked a lot and joke like Mad.
and i had too much to eat...

After Dinner we proceeded back to Zone X.
Boring time i had there.
I don't play any arcade at all.
Wen Theng kept saying that she wanted to play her game...
Some Drillbit?? or was it Chubit?
Than i witness Chee Wei, Alex and Wei Xiang race on a Daytona game.
Some racing game?

Next we went to K-Pool for a few game of pool.
Luckily AMKSS trained me well. I had the chance to learn the game of Pool from my Secondary Classmate. We had a pool table right outside the Council room.
But it was since 2 years ago since i last had a game of Pool. I'm still a rookie.
Had very little skill to display.
However With a better player, Hui yang, as my partner. We played well.
Pool was enjoyable.

After Pool, We walked each other home.
I was Shock to find out that, most of my Classmate stay so close to my Grandparents.
I took the walk to burn some fats.
The last person we sent home was Chee Wei. Before leaving Daniel and me to walk back to AMKHub. Daniel's house was next to Haris. Which means that he went very far off.
Both Daniel talk a lot about how all of us had change over the years.
I agree that We had indeed change. As the common folks say: Man will change through the age (Direct translation).
Daniel Walked me to the MRT Station. Before i begin my Journey home.
I was exhausted. However, happy to be able to see some of my Primary School Classmate after 5 years.
I Hope there would be more of these Primary School gathering. And not need to wait sooo long before the next one??
But what is this 5 years compared to the Secondary one?? 10 year before we meet man!!!
Oh Whatever...
I enjoyed this day and it was always stay in my memory...

fullstop for this entry...

Jamming photos will come soon.....
And by The Way... no one notice that we didn't had a photo for today's gathering?

2008-12-25T01:38:00.002+08:00

At Rotor,
I had to get:

Kenneth's E-Sky Honey-Bee Helicopter

My IFO
-Tail fin

The crazy part was that my Mother actually bought another plane. Sort of for my sister...
(I feel she's still far to young for this!!)
We bought a E-Sky Trainer/3D plane called Nemo.
You heard it!!
NEMO
Cute!!

After that both Kenneth and me agreed that we should bring his Heli for repair the next day...

Back home, i started to build the NEMO.
But to my greater dismay, ALL THE BLOODY SCREWS, WASHER, BOLTS AND NUTS ETC. WERE MISSING!!!
SCREW CHINA PRODUCTS...

Now i have to bring both the Heli and the Half done plane

23 December 08

Woke up early
Packed up all the thing and went to Rotor

Spent a grueling 3hours trying to repair both Nemo and the Honey-bee.
I had the Shop uncle to replace the small parts for the Nemo and Screw it in for me.

As for the Heli... One heck of a job, i must say...

We had:
-the retaining pin broken
-Landing skit broken
-Center Shaft bent
-propeller/rotor too old?/not balanced anymore?

Had the Staff of the shop Help us alot!!!
Thank you uncles!!

Its back home.

Post for 6 and 7 of December(weekend post)

On 6 December.

10 days to my Birthday.

Today my father is about to return from his working trip to Shang-hai (China).

Woke up late as usual...(not as late as the late usual)
Was half conscious, walked out of my room to find that my siblings are having their Weekly tuition again.
(That tuition teacher was one of the best around; i must say)

Right after tuition.
It was a hell of a rush to the Airport to fetch my father.
And Finally My mother Drives!!! Wow!!!
Diao!!!

As we were Parking, my Father call to say that he had arrived safely. But dam... I was greeted badly.
Just because my phone was place Bloody silent. And that i was helping Ma to watch the road and never see my phone ringing in silent mode. i must get all the bloody scolding that has been repeated throught the years....
DAM!!!
Tough luck i guess....

So got my short scolding... Talk back a little...
And off to Lunch at a quite retreat at Changi Airport Terminal 2.
Lunch was fairly acceptably nice...

Went back home to everyone being beaten. As in asleep.
And Finally i get to set my hands on the Emulator that i downloaded. Fully loaded with every single Pokemon Game (Minus those on DS and WII).
Red Dungeon Rescue Team Rules; I must comment.

Dinner was at The newly opened Yishun Community Library. ( Yea!! i know...Trust me.. it sound weird) But Cafe Galilee's food was quite splendid.

Than Walked round Northpoint and Home again.

At home i was Crazy over the new Star Wars Animated series : The Clone Wars

Than it was Super size me the movie before Bed...

OK got up and went to HANS at Springleaf area for breakfast. Add the usual... Ham and Cheese Omealate.
Than off the CENTRAL the shopping mall....

But the stall was a flop... No open and in a Ulu-Ulu mall, Just like those Guitar shops... How nostalgic...

Than it was a short walk at Liang Court. p.s saw a pretty Jap gal....
And saw and old acquaintance

Than went to the riverside to walk.
Went back to

And saw a nice ice-skating performance by a circus crew called INTERGALACTIC CIRCUS (??)

And thus i went Crazy. I started to blast my No1 Favourite Band on my houses' sound system. Well not exactly a Dam good I one but i just got mad.

Than went to Coffee Club for the Real Lunch,

Walked round the Shopping Centre for a while before going home.

i got so shock and went straight to bed.

Than again at 1.40 i woke up.
Got a huge scolding. Forced to packed up all my O level stuff.
TIME TO GET RID OF ALL THOSE SHIT!!!!

After clearing those SHIT, i went to Cook my own lunch.

Than continued watching my Movies. I was 1/10 Through DON'T MESS WITH THE ZOHAN
The movie was Hilarious.

But the only thing that made me Crazy was the Website didn't allow me to watch any other movies. I was like "What the fuck??"
" You have reached your limit of 72 hours of streaming"

Screw Mega Videos!!!!

At 10 i watched my recorded Rock school episode.
and blog....

must be the 5am trauma

2008-12-01T22:32:00.003+08:00

Thank you Darren (my cousin) for calling me at 11.40??

That woked me up totally.

And the only things on earth that can seriously wake me up is my Very Handphone's Ringtone.

Which of course is my NO2 Favourite band LINKIN PARK LP song

NO MORE SORROWS the EBOW is the perfect high pitch ring to shove me off my bed.

Todays main event was a visit to My BEST friend's ERIC's House.

Immediatally after i come to my senses that i should get going. I started to get packing. Place both my Cables nicely into my Electric Guitar Gig back. Shove my Distortion and Metal pedals into the Bag, Along with my Capo and Tuner and i was all set to go.

Before leaving i call my Mother to get some money. She was at Northpoint or rather NTUC at the Yishun MRT. So i scramble over to Yishun MRT to retrive the money.

Than i took a train to Ang Mo Kio.

At first i was wondering why i got into a train. I planned for a Bus trip to AMKSS area Before walking to Eric's house. But anyhows, i went to Ang Mo Kio via Mrt and walked to His house.

It was a long journey. Walked quite a bit before reaching Eric's house.

At about 1.15 i reached, to find out that he was still asleep. I gave him a wake up call. Than Entered his house for some Rocking.
WE rocked the entire afternoon. Playing mostly Linkin park songs.
While playing i Recorded some of our playing. We Recorded NO MORE SORROWS. However it turned out quite noisy due to the high distortion. But hell!! What's Linkin Park without the Heavy Distortion.
Will post the Song up if possible.

Also along side with the Song we played together, i'll post Eric's Composition "Acoustic Demo".

Again, I woke up late. Due to late night again.

Today's main Agenda was an outing with Sok Zhen, David and Eric

Since last night Eric has been telling me how in love he is with my SX Electric model. He said he tried it out at his senior's house and fell in love with at.
That left me laughing.

For todays' outing , both David and I have been planning for this since last week.

Alright, We met at City hall MRT station. I introduced Eric to the Sok and David. Crossed over to the East-West line. And Went off to Paya Lebar MRT.
The first destination of the Day was to Synwin.
My aim was to collect my guitar Strip
David: to Scout for His guitar.

At Synwin, we spent a lot of time waiting for David to test and hear all the guitar he wanted. From the ones i tried the last time round to other. He went from Acoustic Guitar to Electric guitar. So much so that the sale man :MR Tay had to go off for a puff.
And the Boss (i think his the boss) came over to take over. Always seeing him going all holy on the violin, Little would i have known that he also dam holy on the guitar.
i went ga-ga over his playing. What ever i played just now, he played it more rock-ish.
I really have to buck up on both my instruments. It just want to make me scream!!!

Ok a long time ofter we spent at Synwin. We went off to Peninsular for Eric's electric guitar. But before going over, we went for a short walk in the Tanjong Katong complex. David and Sok went to a Donut stall and started a huge joke.
Speech courtesy of Sok zhen's blog.!!!

david : ah, can I have some of those honey bees? (in a low voice)
all : -burst out into laughter-
the counter : -packs it for david-
david : -shocked- whoa, really ah?
kony : HAHAHA!
david : nonono! I don't want this one.. I want.. this one!
the counter : -takes out and puts the other in- haha, he joke with me, I joke with him lo.
kony : haha. (I don't find it funny, but just laugh so I won't make her awkward lo.) I want this one :)
david and I : -dig in!- whoa, nice!
shawn and eric went to the shop N save to get a drink, well.. only shawn did.
david : eh this is good! I need one more! -buys one more-
all : HAHAHA!

Had a big laugh and went off to Peninsular.

At Peninsular, we literally walked into the same guitar shop 3 times this evening. Davis Guitar
Too mushc Guitar scouting. i shall not blabber too much.

After Peninsular, we went on to Bras Brasah Complex/plaza? foe More Guitar scouting. Went to Swee lee company shop. And we stayed till the shop close. But i dare say their service at Swee lee is not as good. They did not seem to care if Customers wanted to try the guitars. At least you should ask the Customers if they are looking for a guitar or something like that.

At around 7Pm we went back to peninsular. For the three and last time we Visited Davis Guitar
Eric Bought his guitar than. AND DAM!!!!! HE GOT AN SX SG CUT GUITAR!!!!!! ARH!!!!!

Than we went jamming at Jade music, Till about 9.15. and than it was Home sweet home for us.
Photos and videos on the next post.

My New Baby has been born!! (Or should i say Bought)

The weekend was sure eventful.

Purchasing my New Acoustic guitar :)
Watched KungFu Panda (DVD duh??)
Went to many places round Singapore
Watched DaVinci Code (recorded from AXN)
Service my Old KAPOK...
Went Cycling!! Woohoo
Cycling in the Sun
Cycling in the Rain

Saturday 22 November.

Woke up pretty early. Again for my sister's Violin sake.Went about the usual things. Kenneth had to go to school early in the morning for His school open house. His Debut PDS performance today. Good luck man!!!

After My Sister's class, we went home for a while for my medicine and a toilet pit stop. After that we were off to Synwin. This time with my Dam Old Kapok and finally my new acoustic guitar. Once at Tanjong Katong Complex, Cheralyn kept pestering my mother for the Sardine sandwich she had last week while repairing both our violin. of course lunch was around the corner and thus she did not get it....

At Synwin, We asked to be served by the same guy whom introduced me to the strong acoustic guitar he has to offer. His name was Fasser Tay. However, he wasn't there till around 12pm, so we went round the complex once again to let the time pass by till he reports for work. (we were there at about 11.30 as the shop only opens at 11am). Once he arrived, the shop attendant called my Father and i was more than ready to get my KAPOK recondition and to reduce the Action. Also to Finally get a proper Acoustic guitar.

But by gainning this acoustic guitar, I have place a stop to all other thing i have planned for my "After O level Fun Pack" My intial plan was to get a New Amplifier for my electric guitar (at least 15watt with guitar effects build in), An IFO (I Love to fly one of those) and maybe a new acoustic guitar. But now, its a stop on those. I'm not rich and my Father has difficulty in finding money. So..... A DAM GOOD ACOUSTIC GUITAR FOR NOW.

Alright, so the Guitar salesman came. i passed him my KAPOK and he brought it in to recondition it. 5 minutes later, he came out saying: Your 4th, 5th and 6th strings have worn out, i change ar??

Ok... so i changed the strings. Lowered the action by a tinny little bit. Now the guitar strings look so shinning!!! (photo at the bottom of the post). While he was at my KAPOK he pass me one of his new stock that he brought out. The sound was not very good. Of course i go for sound quality and not the bloody brand.

Once done he came out and started to introduce me to some other guitar. Unfortunately, the guitar that i wanted from last Saturday was already sold. So he took out a few other for me to try. The sound was quite Sharp and mellow at the same time just what i wanted. However, still not really what i was looking for. Until around the last minute when i was about to purchase another guitar i was egg on by my father to go have a last look at the entire range of guitar. It was than i saw another one that fit my liking.

I immediatally fall in love with its sound.

Also priced at 278.20 w/GST... I bought it. Thus my New Guitar is borned.

CG80 40" Solid Spruce Top, Rosewood Back Grand Concert Cut-away Accoustic Guitar

The Rosewood Rounded back!!!

Back of the Fretboard!!!

2008-11-21T23:12:00.004+08:00

After using Eric's Capo...

I've Known its importance and usefulness.

So i went to get one too...

Diao rite??

ok...

My day started out a mess. AS usual dig right out of bed. Why can't i ever get more sleep??

In addition, I'm on drug/medication.

As usual again, My Mother would leave me at home to "wake up". And my phone was out of battery. So i stayed home for an extra half hour to at least get it to 30% battery to last till at least 3pm.

Charged my phone. And i was off to find my Mother and sister at Causeway point shopping mall.

Once there i was directed to meet them at Toastbox.

At ToastBox i had a Cold Barley before we went off to shop.

My initial plan for today's trip to Causeway point was to only scout for the price range of the Jim Dunlop Trigger Acoustic Capo. But it turned out to be the same Nett price around. Must be the shipment fee?? or the Brand name that affects the price.

Nevermind. In the end i decided to get it and i have no regrets.

Yay!! don't need to sing Damn regret the whole day like last Saturday.

Ate lunch at Gelera Cafe. The food was splendid. Had Pork Rib with pasta. Nice Chunk of meat!!!

Now some pictures of my New Capo!!!

THE AMAZING CAPO!!!

CAPO!!!

CAPO ON A KAPOK!!!!!! wOW!!

A CLoser look at A CAPO ON A KAPOK!!!!

Lastly a ridiculously Looooo0o0o0o0o0ong Receipt for a Capo.......

Tomorrow I will recieve my new baby!!! A Brand new Guitar!!!!

2008-11-19T02:00:00.004+08:00

Aha!!!

NCC Air Annual Campfire night or the lesser known CO night.

This year's CO night was a little special. It was sort of a gathering of all of AMKSS NCC AIR Past and present(almost said future). Batches dating back to 1998, came. Of course i don't even know them?
However, those that made a name, we recognised.
One such person was one called Mdm Ong. Amongst the few rare Female pilots around. She works for an airline as a commercial airline company as a pilot.
Other than being a gathering it was also a Barbaque session.

Alright, the day started.
Weeks before the Night, both Eric and I had planned to meet up earlier to Play guitar together.
So we Met at 2.30.
At 2.10 Eric actually Message me saying: I Just Woke up!!!
I thought Wow!!! Fantastic!!!Ok
fancy waking up at 2pm. never tried that one before!!

So we went to AMKSS, while walking in we talk alot.
Eric kept trying to avoid any contect with the current NCC cadets. But they are just everywhere. Why avoid?

Ok went to a corner of the school compound, and we started guitaring.
We played many popular hits like: HOME by Daughtry, etc.
Also i finally know the importance of having a Capo.
I need one badly!!!!!!!!!!

At 5.30, we went to AMK Mrt to meet the rest of our platoon mates. Whom we would travel in to School together. Once at the Mrt we saw Jun liang, Jing Xian and Gordon already there. After a while Benjamin came along and than Bao Yi reached. WE all went back to AMKhub in search for some "gift" for the cadets or something like that.
We spent alot of time debating if we should go for dinner together. Just go eat lar??
Soon at around 6++. We went to school.
Back at school, i continued to play guitar.

Till around 6.30, whereby the event starts.
We were already treated like Alumni. That set me thinking: Am i That Old?
Once most people arrived, the show started.
Though the Guest-of-honour wasn't here, we had the Pilot to start the event. Gave a "small" and "short" talk than the show went on.
It Started out with two boring Emcees.
Than the Beautiful PDS (Precision Drill Squad) performed.
Followed by the different platoons performances.
The weird thing about tonight's CO Night was an Interval. Everyone was caught by surprise. Nobody dared to stand up till most of them sort of ordered us off the seat.
Ate some of the BBQ food and drank the AMK famous blend.
Than the so-called second segment started.
At least this time round the show was made alive.
With my cadet, Adil as the Emcee. The night will never be the same. He is a natural borned entertainer. By looking at his face, given that retarded look, is enough to leave you laughing for a darn long time.
Adil lead the show. and everything seem more entertaining.
The current cadets came out with a quite nice skit performance about this gay being a regular at the Army as a PTI.
It was highly entertaining, with the Gay really GAY. haha
At the End of the show both me and Diam Han agree on one thing: Our School had done a good job in promoting that Gays should look forward to a wonderful carrer in the army as PTI.
And if my PTI was certaining a GAY, though i maybe scared, but i'll be greatful if he were to onli ask us to do 5 chicken dance instead of the 5BX. HAHA.
The last performance is by my Platoonmate, Bing Hong and my own Cadet, Jun Li. They soloed PDS, and wowed the crowd very much.
The Last event of the Day was some Photo takking session. Since it's quite a historical day with so many old batches comming together for a campfire.

After the campfire, Eric, Benjamin and i went for a movie at AMKhub.
Many will know as three as very good friends.
We watch Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa
Will make a blog entry as a movie review soon.

And will post the pictures of tonight's event soon as i get my hand on it.

Finally My VIOLIN!!!

Got it fixed/repaired on Saturday.

Alright!! The First weekend after the o level.

Great finally Its time to revive my Violin!!!

Saturday, 15 November 2008

Woke up at around say 8??

As usual, dig out of bed by my father for breakfast, and to send my sister for her Violin lessons at Cristofori at Chong Pang Market area. (Or what's known to my family as 103 market)

Ate the same famous Bee Hoon.

I'm dam tired!!! Due to pass Late night. I'm turning norturnal!!!

Alright the lesson went in a flash and We were on our way to Tanjong Katong complex.
The Complex was at Geylang.. So... Dont think dirty...
It was quite a long journey to the complex so everyone had a short snooze on the way. While i stared at people's Wheel.

Been having that habit since young...

However long the journey was, we were still too early at the complex. It was around 10.45. And Synwin music opens only at 11am. Why must most shop's in Aingapore open at 11am??
Alright so we went walking round the Old complex just to pass the time.

At 11am++ the shop open and we went in. I was excited. Finally my Violin. my first instrument is being revived
So send my bridge of my violin for repairs , than my sister's violin bridge.
After the repairs, i went over to the guitar section.

The salesman, Mr Fasser Tay was very friendly, i got to learn alot of new things about guitar. including how to hold the guitar correctly, My way would lead to very bad habits in the future. also i learned alot about the different wood affecting acoustic instruments.

And Damn man!! i almost got to buy a handcrafted Rosewood guitar with handcrafted pearl on it.
and adding on, the price was a steal, S$280.
ARH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway's my dad promise to get it next saturday if possible. Plus, modify
the ...Kapok.

After the Synwin visit, we went back to Junction 8 for my sister's course again, than vivocity.

2008-11-14T00:01:00.002+08:00

A day of many events.
Woke up clearly thinking that it was going to be a boring and normal day.

But i beg the differ...
During breakfast at Burger King, I was told that my Grandmother was to come for a visit.
Immediately i knew, It's not going to be a normal day.

AS usual... once the new that someone is coming to my house get to my mother's ear... She'll go all mad in cleaning up the place.

Went home to a mini spring clean. Than another shocking news came.
Sok Zhen call for a guitar lesson at my place.
i was shock...

OK. Than the morning just flew by.
Helped with the housework. Than my grandmother came at around 10.30am. We chat a little than watch my uncle's wedding video.

Than Sok Zhen called and arranged the lesson to be at 12.30.(lunch time actually)
OK at 12.30 i went to the MRT to fetch her to my place.
once home again, it was Lunch time.
So i/We took her out for lunch at the newly open Hong Kong Cafe at Northpoint2
Lunch over and back home for lessons

We play guitar the entire afternoon. i manage to teach the HEY NOW by Fm static First verse to her. YAY...
than we went on to watch some Music video. Hear a couple of nice Rock tune on Sok zhen's blog.
I want some of those song.

Time really fly when one is having fun. Soon i sent Sok Zhen off to the MRT.
Than back home.

On the way back, met my eldest uncle(mother side). Bought Oyster omellette. When home and had a small interrogate. Than i fell asleep till dinner

DAM!! i Miss my AVATAR!!!!!!

That all folks

2008-11-11T22:34:00.002+08:00

Yes!! Yippee!!!

The gruelling o level is finally over...

The time has come to relax like there's no tomorrow...

I've been waiting for this day to come for a long time. Finally my chance at jamming a a "professional" so-call studio.

Alright, my day started at 6.40, waking up all excited for the very last o level paper.

The Multiple choice paper for Combined science. It went quite smooth, the paper.

Immediately after the paper at 9am. i was all fired up for Play. The first activity planned out the previous day was to go for a jamming session. I've been waiting for this chance for a long time. Ever since i started learning to play my electric guitar.

But before we could go mad....

We were held back, Had to filled up a ridiculous CCA form and many still owed General the TIME CAPSULE Items....

TIME CAPSULE

a box created by the General Herself for us her Evil minion to store item which would hence leave us thinking at least ten year later, what on earth was i thinking by placing my Stapler there?

So, Arranged with Daniel to meet up at a later time before jamming.

Being too bored to go home (which also means that once home I'll be a couch potatoe and be a geek playing Xbox...)

I Drag David on a trip to Peninsular Plaza first. To Check out the Beautiful Guitars around. Anyhow David was scouting about for good acoustic guitar and good Electric guitar. And I a fantastic 15-20 Watt amplifier. The 10 watt SX amp is killing me.

Ok.... Indeed we went for some serious hunting to burn the time. Went from shop to shop to test/try their guitars and consulting the expert on guitar.

At first we weren't sure of where would be a good jam studio to go to.

Daniel arrived kept showing off his camera, than an unexpected addition to the group came.

Sok Zhen dress in all black...

Ok so effectively before Sok Zhen arrived, we already booked the studio, It wasn't quite what we originally planned for.

Once we "rescued" the "damsel in distress" the jamming session commenced!!!

However, being totally noobs at jamming and playing in unision or whatsoever... everything was just experimental.

The jam studio somehow did not turn up as Nice. The guitar were all old. Amplifier's sounded weird. No distortion...

But never mind. Good musician would always be able to make good music out of even the most badly conditioned instrument.

Alright in the studio, Daniel and David spent most of their time wacking the Drum aimlessly. i was attempting all my best to Teach Sok Zhen (not that it was difficult<>). David and Daniel were just too loud.

Daniel when round photoshooting...

i just hope that She had learn much today.

It was only towards the end of the session did we had some organisation.

Over all the session was fun-filled and we all had a good feel of How jamming was like. Looking forward to more sessions in the future.

Ok after the session we went out, or rather beside the plaza to Funan. We had a late lunch, starving for the sake of Music. I ordered a MEGA BigMac, a limited edition BigMac. Ok. it was reasonably big. Still rather the Botak Jones, U-CRAZY-WHAT!?. That was what i call huge.
Than Daniel's photoshooting session again.

After the meal we went around walking aimlessly again. Just to get rid of the boredom.
While walking we went pass a huge Stationary shop. Sok Zhen went crazy over the "cute" notebook and bought a few.
Than some photos...

Home sweet home.......

I might update the photos of the jamming trip as soon as i get it.
