SOCCER!!!
Havent had a match in a long time since there was this sudden craze last year.Was looking forward to the 401 vs 405 match but it didnt happen...
Back to soccer today...found a new field at Serangoon.It's not as barren as the field beside Punggol CC but there's lumps of soil on the field.The field's pretty close to the roads...WEEEEE,BOOM,Ball burst.Didnt happen today
Tried playing as a Left-back today.I have to admit that you get a sense of accomplishment when you cleared the ball upfront or tackle your opponent.I prefer intercepting passes instead of going into a 50-50 challenge.
Difference between playing as a striker and a defender
Striker:
-When you score,it's like for personal glory
-Don't really feel like defending
-Less thinking involved
Defender:
-You defend for the team
-Wants to join the attack in any way possible
-Play tactically(positioning,offside trap,etc)
March is here!Cant wait for the holidays,MORE SOCCER!
I love Wintermelon Tea ♥
GO MANCHESTER UNITED!!!

Acceptance
I am unique and worthy
Within me lies the power to be the best that i can be
...
...
I shall learn continuously
Think creatively
And strive for excellence in whatever i do
Quoted from the Student Creed...didnt think i will actually quote from it.Finally realised the meaning in it.
SRJC,AVA...two places i dont want to be in.No choice,i've got to accept it.Happy or sad,you'll still have to get through the day.Might as well have a good day and live with joy.So now i should try to "strive for excellence" and use that "power to be the best that i can be".
Think i can and will try to own the people in my class and school.After getting owned for two years,it's time to own some people.I'll have to study and study,i want to own.I want my Edusave awards!For CCA,there's no way to be the best...like there's any sort of competition for AVA.Might try to be in the committee so that i'll have a nice testimonial next time.I guess i can get some help from Arnold.
Went to the Royal Sporting House warehouse sale.Was supposed to get myself a pair of running shoes but instead i got another wife(a very chio one).Bought another pair of soccer shoes,not boots.T90 Laser II again.I seem to like the design of the Laser II a lot since i now own 3 pairs of T90 Laser II.I've been eyeing this one for a very long time already,the sliver colour one.Finally got it and at a discounted price :D Still haven got my running shoes...3 soccer shoes,0 running shoes.Running shoes are ugly compared to soccer shoes xP
Soccer tomorrow...today's match was cancelled.I hope we dont end up playing at the street soccer court again.I want to play field soccer.Join my team-Real Sengkang!!!It's on Facebook!
Just changed my display picture...first time the display picture only has me in it,feels abit weird looking at myself,a bit egoist like that.At least you can see my face in the small boxes on the home page(last time can only see Nad,Plato and Zi Xuan).Scare my new friends cannot recognise me
Shaping my destiny...

Sian...
Let's look at the positives:
-Once a week,2 hours
-CCA on Wed,Fri can relax after school
-No competition
-Get to stay in air-con room when on duty for morning assembly
That's about all.Getting people to join AVA so that it's more fun for me
PE in JC is really hiong.A minimum run of 2 km every lesson and pull-up pratice.Got back my form yesterday when i managed 3 pull-ups,short of my personal maximum of 7 during the rock-climbing training.Couldn't do any on the first PE lesson though.
I urgently need to get myself a good pair of running shoes.Been lots of running lately.Wore sneakers(totally forgot need wear sports shoes)for yesterday's PE and ran 2 km.It didnt provide much cushioning and now my knees are suffering.Ran the last round around the track sorely on willpower :D Can do better next time
School's pretty fun,for now...wait till the tests come.Think i'm slowly running out of gas.Not mugging as hard as i did during the first two weeks of school.
Soccer tomorrow :D My leg's being a little itchy lately.Everytime i'm near the field,i will be hoping that a ball comes in my direction so i could 'pump' it back.
With dreams,comes disappointment...Time to own

SORRY BUT IT'S ALL GOING TO BE IN CAPS
1.GUITAR ENSEMBLE
2.SOCCER
3.PHOTOGRAPHY SOCIETY
GUESS WHAT I GOT???
AVA!DAMN MAD,SAD,ANGRY,EMO,PARANOID,LOW...AVA NOT EVEN IN MY CHOICES LA
NOT THAT I GOT ANYTHING WITH AVA,IT'S JUST THAT I WANT SOMETHING FUN,A CCA WHICH I CAN RELAX AND JUST HAVE PLENTY OF FUN...
INSTEAD OF REGRETTING WHAT I DIDNT DO IN THE PAST,I'M TRYING TO MAKE THE BEST OUT OF WHAT I CAN CHANGE SUCH AS APPEALING OUT OF AVA
I RATHER IT BE CALLED MEDIA CLUB(LIKE IN XINMIN)THAN AVA CLUB.AT LEAST THERE'S OTHER THINGS LIKE PHOTO OR VIDEOS.
HAD TO DO AN INTRODUCTION TODAY DURING THE CCA SESSION.ONE OF THE QUESTION WAS "WHY YOU CHOSE TO JOIN AVA?"
"I DID NOT CHOSE TO COME TO AVA!!!"THEN THE JC2 STARTED CHEERING,I WAS LIKE @#$% YOUR HEAD AR!
WHY DONT WE HAVE MORE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE WHAT WE WANT AS OUR CCA SINCE CCA ISNT REALLY THAT IMPORTANT IN JC...REMEMBERED WHAT THEY SAID DURING THE CCA TALK.CHOOSE A CCA THAT YOU HAVE A PASSION AND INTEREST FOR.YES!I CHOSE MY FAVOURITE ONES BUT YOU DIDNT GAVE IT TO ME.EVEN RUNNER'S CLUB SEEMS TO BE MORE FUN THAN AVA...
I WAS FINE IN SCHOOL THOUGH,A LITTLE FRUSTRATED AFTER REACHING HOME.PROBABLY BECAUSE I HAD TOO MUCH TIME TO THINK.REALISED WHEN I THINK TOO MUCH,I BECOME A LITTLE PARANOID AND START TO BE ANGRY AT MYSELF FOR NOT DOING CERTAIN THINGS.
IF I'M STRUCK IN AVA CLUB,I WOULD HAVE BECOME THE 'CLUB GUY'
PRI SCH:IT CLUB
SCIENCE CLUB
MATHS CLUB
SEC SCH:INNOVATOR'S CLUB/SCIENCE ACADEMY
I WOULD RATHER JOIN ROBOTICS THAN AVA.I WOULD DEFINITELY BE ABLE TO GO TO ANY SCHOOL THROUGH DSA USING ROBOTICS.THAT GOLD AWARD FROM THE NGEE ANN POLY COMPETITION.OWNED ALL THE OTHER SCHOOLS THAT ENTERED.I COULD HAVE BEEN SOMEWHERE,SOMEWHERE WITH ROBOTICS.
PROGRAMMING WAS A USEFUL SKILL I LEARNED FROM ROBOTICS.I WANT TO LEARN GUITAR,I WANT TO LEARN A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT.AFTER BEING A MUSIC IDIOT FOR 16 YEARS,I WANT TO TRY,TO LEARN AN INSTRUMENT APART FROM THAT DUMB RECORDER.
IT'S LIKE THE SAME FEELING WHEN I GOT BACK MY O LEVEL RESULTS
ARGH APPEAL TO SOMEWHERE,ANYWHERE.

I Still Have A Life
Been awhile since i've been in the water.We were doing stupid things in the pool...things like cheering,sit ups against the side of the pool,push ups in the pool and dancing to "sorry sorry".It was fun though.
Went for lunch at KFC at Compass Point.Joined by Jun Hao and Wei Ming.Chit-chatted a little about school by going home.
I started the "Happy Birthday" thingy because today's the 7th day of Lunar New Year-"人日".My birthday,your birthday and everyone's birthday...
Created a Real Sengkang FC facebook group after Lester said he wanted to form a club.Who want join?I the manager AKA manyzer.Soccer games on every public and school holidays.Long time never kick ball,leg itchy.

TGIF!
After a week of lesson proper,the weekend means a lot to me now.
Going to school isnt just study study study,there's a mixture of fun too.My study group will chit-chat and joke around during the afternoon studying session.Life isnt that boring because of this group of friends.
I quite like this class,made up people with different characters.I like 1s07 and i miss 401.There were many problems with 401 maybe because of the large number and the lack of communication and understanding between one other.When we stepped into 301,there wasnt orientation to bond the class,maybe that's why.Well,it's all in the past.
Went for photography...after the session,i didnt feel like joining anymore.I expected to be able to grab a camera and go outside to just shoot pictures and be taught some photography skills.No...we learnt how to set up a tripod...One guy assembles the tripod and the other guy has to dis-assemble it.That was all.Compared to the guitar,i didnt learn anything.
Still dont know which one to join but i'm moving towards the guitar side.Cant wait to master the chords and play songs that i liked :D Guess photography i can learn on my own...
Fate is knocking on my door again,just like what happened last time.I didnt grab it then...it's still a little weak though
I miss 401,when are we meeting again???

Just So You Know
After listening closely to some songs,i decided to try guitar.It'll be quite cool to be able to learn some of those songs and play it on the guitar.Think i will join guitar(Zi Han will be happy to hear that) IF i dont get into photography.
Just So You Know - Jesse McCartney
I shouldn't love you but I want to
I just can't turn away
I shouldn't see you but I can't move
I can't look away
I shouldn't love you but I want to
I just can't turn away
I shouldn't see you but I can't move
I can't look away
And I don't know
How to be fine when I'm not'
Cause I don't know
How to make a feeling stop
Just so you know
This feeling's takin' control
Of me and I can't help it
I won't sit around
I can't let him win now
Thought you should know
I've tried my best to let go
Of you but I don't want to
I just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know
It's gettin' hard to be around you
There's so much I can't say
Do you want me to hide the feelings
And look the other away
And I don't know
How to be fine when I'm not'
Cause I don't know
How to make a feeling stop
Just so you know
This feeling's takin' control
Of me and I can't help it
I won't sit around
I can't let him win now
Thought you should know
I've tried my best to let go
Of you but I don't want to
I just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know
This emptiness is killing me
And I'm wondering why I've waited so long
Lookin' back I realize it was always there
Just never spoken
I'm waitin' here
Been waitin' here
Just so you know
This feeling's takin' control
Of me and I can't help it
I won't sit around
I can't let him win now
Thought you should know
I've tried my best to let go
Of you but I don't want to
Just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know, just so you know
Thought you should know
I've tried my best to let go
Of you but I don't want to
Just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know, just so you know
Just so you know...

Double reunion
Great!This is going to be a really really long post after the exciting events that happened in the past few days.
Friday-CNY celebration+XMS+401'09 gathering
CNY celebration at school was short,ended at 10.30.My class had to do CIP lo...bringing kids from the nearby kindergarten to perform at our school's concert.The children very cute...i'm just afraid of small kids that are running around and banging into me.After bringing the kids back,i headed for XMS...
XMS sure change a lot with all those bronze statures,not that i not already aware of that.I quickly exited the school when the fire alarm rang,i wasnt going to BBQ in the sun.Waited for a long long time outside school before we could enter again.It's great to be able to see friends and teachers again.Many thought i was going to poly because i was wearing home clothing...i'm not.Chit-chat with people before finding people for outing.
Went for bowling at Kovan.Played 2 rounds,second round my hand abit pain liao.After bowling,we packed dinner and ate at Kovan Melody.Chit-chat about school,demostrating the different school's dance,played cards and truth or dare.It was fun,hope there will be more gatherings like these.
Saturday-Chinese New Year's Eve
Went to my grandparent's house early in the morning to help prepare the food,not me though.I was studying,trying to get my work done so i can enjoy the holidays.Till now,i haven finish my homework yet.Just played for the rest of the day,reunion dinner and taking hongbao and stuff.Stayed over for the night to watch soccer matches.FA cup matches,though not that exciting but it's always nice to watch soccer without it being laggy or the screen freezing after sometime.After the matches,my cousin and i were watching anime,a fresh new experience watching anime late into the night.Really is late,around 3++.You just keep on watching and watching until your eyelids become too heavy and the Zzz monster eventually takes over you.
Sunday-Chinese New Year
Woke up in the morning because of a phone call.It was around 10+.I didnt want to continue sleeping,i wanted to study.Had too much fun today.Went through my tutorials and lectures.Took the opportunity to ask my cousins for assistance.No cards,no mahjong...sian.Went home in the evening,miss my bed,pillow,computer,radio,soccer ball and my pikachu.
This year,i will be visiting people during the New Year selectively.I'm not going to my parents' friends house.Totally nothing to do lo,Just say there and smile.Answering some questions and stuff.I rather not be there...
I waited but you came and left like the wind.The flame rekindles...

What do you want from me?
Going back to XMS tomorrow after the CNY celebration.Not for the school or the teachers but for the friends and memories.My life wouldnt have been this colourful without them.I wish for a great reunion.that's all i want...
Heading into tomorrow with a mix of anxiety,happiness and unwillingness.Havent seen many people for a long time.With seperation does one start to miss the people and treasure the reunion.

Study study study
My life is more meaningful and fulfilling now that i have something to do instead of staring at the walls the whole day.Something to keep me busy now.Due to the busy schedule,i realised i don't have time to read my story books... :C
Being busy is good,keeps my mind occupied.Ensures that i do not have time to think about other things...Feel like a mugger...
Decided to find a 'slack-er' cca so i have the time and energy to study.Not going to join the rockclimbing.3 times a week...one training seesion is already killing me and at that time lessons haven't started.I'll probably be too tired to do my homework when i go home.Either photography or guitar.I want learn how to play guitar then i can play songs :D
I can resist the computer when i'm studying :D Good sign.Instead of using the computer,i go onto Facebook via my PSP.Due to its limited accessibilty,i cant do much on Facebook while on my PSP.Just to check status,profiles and responding to friend requests.Like when did Facebook change its display...so weird lo
Had a fire drill today.Was trying to create some chaos and panic by saying 'panic' along the way to the field.Of course,nothing happened.The whole school was gathered at the football field and after some briefing they decided to play the song "Lollipop" by Mika.The song for our college dance.They decided to use this chance to do mass dance...LOL
Overall,school's pretty fun till now.Busy it may be but the fun seems to take away all the tiredness.Life's getting better :D
Anyone going back to XMS on friday???Reunion
Let's see if it works...

Orientation
Today was the last day of orientation and just like yesterday,it's games day again.
After our 8 games unbeaten streak yesterday,we decided to give the other classes some chances but we still won majority of our games today.
The picnic was the highlight for today and the orientation.So everyone brought foods and drinks.The drinks were cleared really quickly while the food we brought were hardly touched.A few of us went to play Re-capture the flag(there was a capture the flag before this)...we only manage to draw against Draco.Cetus' no longer dominated as the winner for orientation was Pegasus.AQUILA WAS SECOND!!! :D...expected first though
S07!!!(my hair looks really sucky lo><)
S07-a class dominated by boys(it's worse than 401) A hyper,friendly,funny and united class.That's for now,only time will tell.Comparisons will definitely be made...
From Selatar(Green) to Jaguar(Yellow) to Aquila(Yellow again...) Aquila's cheers were definitely more fun than the other two...no more 'north south east west' or 'who we are...where we come from'.My class even came up with our own Aquila cheer in Chinese,Tamil and Malay.
Feeling very high now!
AQUILA OI !!!
