I know this I should not say this, but I have to say it.

I HATE PADDLING ALONE!

It's finally over

2010-08-28T11:38:00.003+08:00

Even when your hope is gone,

Move along.

SYOG is finally over, so YAY, things in the office will be back to normal.

And hey, its almost September.

I Like September.

This year, fasting is quite easy.

Like I don't really feel it.

I could train in the morning and not die throughout the day.

Anyways, the girls just came back from World Champs and now they're working towards Asian Games.

The guys, well, let's just say we are not good enough.

SEA Games 2011 is what I'm working towards.

Even though chances of going is quite low, I'll just train first and worry about that later.

Worst come to worst, I'll just wait for 2013 SEA games.

My Fair weather friends.

Thanks a bunch of bananas.

Well, time for me to go back to training properly.

I have to admit that I've been lazy for the past few months.

I'll just take it as a Super long break from paddling or even training for that matter.

Have to stay focused.

I have till the 29th of May.

Let's see what I can do with the little time that I have.

10 more days

2010-05-07T23:54:00.002+08:00

Hey Boys!

10 more in-camp days and we're done for our basic training.

I can't say that time fly cos this is the longest 3 3/4 months of my life.

I do not wish to go through anything like that again meaning please don't let me get npco.

Give me an sa job and i'll be grateful.

thanks!

No much longer

2010-04-16T22:42:00.002+08:00

Hmm. 5 weeks left. Till we POP. To all army boys, hope you enjoy wherever you're posted to. I is not liking NS very much. Hopefully i get office hours job when i get my posting. I don't shift work. Its not very nice...

Anyway, today is not a fairytale.

-_-

Coming back from camp

2010-03-27T16:00:00.002+08:00

It's been awhile since im here.
Anyway, im not applying for environmental engine as it requires h2 chem which i don't have...Damn.
I ended up applying for materials science and engine, mecha engine, elect engine, comp engine and common engine at nus. Hopefully can get at least one of them. And Edmund, no i'm not going to post about my first 10 days in HTA. All that I can say is that it was definitely the longest 10 days in my life. For now in camp is quite relaxed. Abit tiring cos of all the tests that we have. Apart from that, its eat and sleep. Literally. 5 to 6 more weeks before i pop/poc depending on what they give us. I just want to pass out and get out of there asap. Weekends are SOOO happening. I noticed that all my weekends starts at either macr/kallang/bedok. Training and competition has been my weekends so far. Not that i got no life, my life is training and racing... For now. I got nothing better to do anyway. So yeah. Im going to sleep now. Just got back from MR500 at bedok. Goodafternoon everyone

2010-03-06T11:21:00.000+08:00

I WANT ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING!

2010-02-15T17:06:00.002+08:00

Keep searching for the place to be.
Its not much further from here.
Or so they say.

I hate making decisions

2010-02-15T02:02:00.002+08:00

The roads we take are more important than the goals we announce. Decisions determine destiny.

We have a choice: to plow new ground or let the weeds grow.

It does not take much strength to do things, but it requires great strength to decide on what to do.
Elbert Hubbard

When it is not necessary to make a decision, it is necessary not to make a decision.
Lord Falkland

I hate to see things done by halves. If it be right, do it boldly,--if it be wrong leave it undone.
Bernard Gilpin

The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action.
John Dewey

Decisions are the endless uncertainties of life that we'll not know if theyre right until the very end, so do the best you can and hope its right.
Lily Collins

Your life changes the moment you make a new, congruent, and committed decision.

George Eliot

A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows the public opinion.

I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Some problems are so complex that you have to be highly intelligent and well informed just to be undecided about them.
Laurence J. Peter

It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
J. K. Rowling

If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a compromise.
Robert Fritz

A weak man has doubts before a decision; a strong man has them afterwards.

A decision is what a man makes when he can't find anybody to serve on a committee.

Lets start

2010-02-14T13:58:00.001+08:00

Be right back.
Out for lunch with family.
I'll blog about the first 10 days of NS at Home Team Academy soon.
So stay tuned!!!

the day before i went in

2010-02-01T20:23:00.003+08:00

As usual, my day started with training at macritchie.
Today was special though.
We celebrated Amand and Roni's name day.
Given the opportunity to choose afternoon's training, we decided on having ball games instead of the supposed 6km run.
After morning training, lunch at coro.
ZiQiang, Lacus, MingSheng and Steph followed me to Nj to slack before afternoon's session.
Of all places to slack, I will choose either Macritchie or Nj.
I guess these are the places where I feel at home.
There will always be people there who I can hang with.
I don't know if I'm suppose to be happy about going in or not but yeah, life goes on.
I'll see what happens from tomorrow onwards.
And yeah, to everyone who had taken time off to hang with me, THANK YOU!
I'll see you guys around.

I realised something...

2010-01-18T06:51:00.002+08:00

Home is not a very fun place to be at.
There's practically nothing to be done but sleep and clean the house.
Using the comp is no fun anymore.
Especially when there is no manga to read or games to play.
I want out!
I've been working till late at night for a few days lately.
Cant wait for pay day.
2 more working days.
After that, 1 week of slacking and then, in i go.
OFF GOES MY HAIR!

Phuket trip

2010-01-11T00:20:00.003+08:00

Hmm. Ok. The trip was AWESOME!!! (most of it at least)
I shall just summarise it.
-Beautiful limestone park
-Awesome snorkeling trip
-Beautiful Manta ray
-Cute sea turtles
-Beautiful Manta ray
-Amazing Eagle ray
-Numerous moray eels
-Lionfish
-Nemo (clown fishes)
-Squids
-Sea snakes
-And a lot more which I don't know the name
-THE BEACH WAS LIKE WOAH!!!!

MANTA RAY
Seriously, when i saw it, HAHHAHAHAHA, i dont know what to say.
I was so happy.
Its beautiful!

Sweet dream or a beatiful nightmare?

2009-12-25T14:00:00.003+08:00

Anyway, I is back. Took a really long break. Hmm. Let's see, after A's was prom.

Interesting photo. Prom wasn't so bad. Food was good or at least, I thought it was worth it. 5 course meal and I got full after the 3rd. A lot of people looked good. Goes to show how much dressing up can do.
Photos on facebook, duhh.
Ok, so after prom was over, took a day off before going back to training .
Damn was I fat/slow/weak, not that im skinny/fast/strong now.
Since it's off season now, we've been doing a lot of running, swimming, and gym.
Not so much paddling.
Need to lose weight badly or at least lose the fats.
Exams sucks.
Oh well.
After a few weeks of training, I went to malaysia with the njc canoeing team, for a holiday, not training.
Genting was frikkin cold.
Temperature below 15 degrees with strong winds.
Gabriel and I did a half-naked mile in the cold weather.
Quite refreshing actually.
Following that, was the theme park.
For 44rm, spend the whole day playing with the rides.
The worst was the pirate house thingy, a failure.
The most heart pumping was space shot.
The most fun was flying coaster.
And the rest was so-so.
Then, we went to KL.
Stayed at Capitol hotel.
Because I'm poor, there was no shopping for me.
Only another theme park day at Times Square.
Not that bad.
On the last night, me and a few others played cards while the rest were either sleeping or drinking.
Loser had to do push ups, 10 per card.
I did a total of 1013 pushups that night.
After that, we walked to Petronas Twin tower, about half an hour walk.
Malaysia is quite creepy at night unlike Singapore.
Erm, and now I'm back here in my room, blogging.
Training will resume again on Monday.
Till then,
I wanna wish you a merry christmas (x3)
from the bottom of my heart.

2009-11-28T14:17:00.001+08:00

FUCK!

Its all about growing up.

2009-11-14T23:22:00.002+08:00

Voice in the head: "Time to grow up kid!"
Me:"OK OK! After A's I'll try my best."

Emotional by Diana DeGarmo

2009-11-09T20:58:00.001+08:00

Sometimes I get emotional
Sometimes I do some stupid things
Sometimes I say what I should just keep inside
Sometimes I'm sad about everything
Sometimes I'm mad and break some things
Sorry times 10 but you just got in the way

Don't give up now running away
I won't hurt you
Sometimes I'm just a pain
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy, but sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel emotional
[fade]

You say I'm just impossible
Totally unpredictable
I'm just a girl get use to it
No big deal
You can't change me why would you try?
I'm no angel but I can make you smile
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy but, sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel emotional

Don't give up
I won't hurt you
Oh, sometimes I'm just a pain
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy but, sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel oh yeah
That's when I need you
Sometimes I get emotional
[fade]

That's just the way I am
Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy but sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel emotional

A bit more

2009-08-12T22:37:00.003+08:00

Hey you.
I know you don't like what's happening now.
Me neither.
I want it to be over too.
I'm sick of this environment.
I don't know whether whatever I'm doing now will be enough
Or rather the right thing to do.
I just want to try my best.
I cannot afford to have any other thing in mind.
I must be focused.
I know what I need to achieve.
I don't know if I can get there.
At the end of the day, I don't want to look back and say,
" F***, I could have done better"

I'm sorry for any inconvenience caused.

CANNOT LAH

2009-08-09T14:34:00.001+08:00

IMPOSSIBLE LEH!

racism?

2009-08-06T07:30:00.000+08:00

If we all could just admit
That we are racist a little bit,
Even though we all know
That it's wrong,
Maybe it would help us
Get along.

What the heck?

2009-08-02T22:57:00.002+08:00

Am currently in deep shit.
Grades are lower then shit.
Damn it!
100 days to A levels?
3-4 weeks to prelims?
Come what may.
Im tired of thinking of how things will work out.
I'll just do what I can.
In the end, what is gonna happen will happen.

Mr Aiman maybe?

once in a while

2009-07-22T22:01:00.001+08:00

I wanna flip my life away.

Love drunk, Boys like girls

2009-07-13T23:21:00.001+08:00

The top down in the summer sun
The day we met was like a hit an run
And I still taste it on my tongue
The sky was burning up like fireworks
You made me want you oh so bad it hurt
But girl, in case you haven’t heard

I used to be love drunk
But now I’m hungover
I’ll love you forever
Forever is over
We used to kiss all night
Now it’s just a bar fight
So don’t call me crying
Say hello to goodbye

Cause just one thing would make me say
I used to be love drunk
But now I’m hungover
Ill love you forever
But now it’s over

Hot sweat and blurry eyes
We’re spinning on a roller coaster ride
The world stuck in black and white
You drove me crazy every time we touched
Now I’m so broken that I can’t get up
Oh girl, you make me such a lush

I used to be love drunk
But now I’m hungover
I’ll love you forever
Forever is over
We used to kiss all night
Now its just a bar fight
So don’t call me crying
Say hello to goodbye

Cause just one thing would make me say
I used to be love drunk
But now I’m hungover
Ill love you forever
But now it’s over

All the time I wasted on you
All the bullshit you put me through
Checking into rehab is everything that we had
Didn’t mean a thing to you

I used to be love drunk
But now I’m hungover
Ill love you forever
But now it’s over

I used to be love drunk
But now I’m hungover
I’ll love you forever
Forever is over
We used to kiss all night
Now it’s just a bar fight
So don’t call me crying
Say hello to goodbye

Cause just one thing would make me say
I used to be love drunk
But now I’m hungover
Ill love you forever
But now it’s over

Now it’s over
I still taste it on my tongue
Now it’s over

Bleack

2009-07-12T18:20:00.000+08:00

COOLEST SCENE IN BLEACH I THINK.

The day begins

2009-07-06T19:38:00.002+08:00

TOMOR-ROW is the start of term 3.
Its getting closer people.
You know what I mean.
Anyway, I think I'll continue training till they go for their world juniors.
It feels weird not paddling.
Like on weekends, when I wake up early and don't go for training,
it feels like something is wrong with my day.
Its nice sometimes I guess but still, its WEIRD.
Went to queesway with Weizhi yesterday.
Retarded boy paid $82 for tights then now tell me don't dare to wring it.
After the 2 weeks break from paddling due to common test, I can feel the significant drop.
I felt so slow until today.
We did 200m and 100m sprints and I realised that my speed was still there.
Damn it felt good.
200m in 40 sec and 100m in 20 sec.
Can definitely be better.
By the end of this year, my 200m will be 38 sec.
Thats my goal, apart from getting at least 3 As for A levels.
Well, life's a tour.
Better make the best out of it.
Till next time,
Good Luck people!

FUCKED UP EVEN MORE

2009-06-19T00:04:00.000+08:00

IN THE END,
I GAIN NOTHING.

IT'S ALL MY FAULT

Blah blah blah

2009-06-18T10:39:00.002+08:00

Ice cream with edmund
Stupid edmund refused to let me get a whole pint of berry flavoured ice cream.
He insisted that either get strawberry or vanilla.
Personally, i think that vanilla is the worst flavour ever.
Its just damn gross.
Anyway, we bought half berry half strawberry and the gave us free rocky road flavoured ice cream.
It was quite a struggle.
After awhile, it tasted worst and worst.
Seriously screwed up.

Reasons as to why vanilla is the worst flavour to get:
-You get sick of it the fastest.
-It taste too much like milk which i think is damn gross.
-Its the most basic flavour which means SCAM
-Its smelly
-Its cheap.
-I hate it

How I would look with specs.

fucked up

2009-06-17T13:29:00.003+08:00

Stupid edmund.

Anyway, how's it been people?
For some, its 2 weeks to common test/school reopen.
Oh, National Canoeing Champs this weekend.
Come and watch if you want.
Saturday and Sunday.

Been quite busy lately.
Trying to find time for everything.
Studies, training. and abit of playtime.
Watched Taking of pelham 123 yesterday at Cathay.
I think the show was quite nice.
At least better than expected.
Not too long ago, I also watched Ghost of girlfriend's past and Drag me to hell.
The former was really nice I think, haha, the latter, well, alot of shocking scenes which I find rather retarded.
Show to watch would be Hannah Montana, Land of Lost and Transformers before school reopens.

Revision wise, i think i'll survive through CTs.
Maybe some casualties here and there but shouldnt be too bad.

Training wise, not too bad.
Sprint phase is really painful.
Short, but painful.
Oh, and there have been some new members in the team.

Other than that, I'm fine i guess.
Few problems here and there.
Shall fix it soon.

And I'm sorry for being an ass.

And get away from this place
Have a new name and face
I just ain't the same without you in my life

Late night drives, all alone in my car
I can't help but start
Singing lines from all our favorite songs
And melodies in the air
Singin' life just ain't fair
Sometimes I still just can't believe you're gone

And I'm sure the view from heaven
Beats the hell out of mine here
And if we all believe in heaven,
Maybe we'll make it through one more year
Down here

Feel your fire,
When its cold in my heart
And things sorta start
Remindin' me of my last night with you
I only need one more day
Just one more chance to say
I wish that I had gone up with you too

And I'm sure the view from heaven
Beats the hell out of mine here
And if we all believe in heaven
Maybe we'll make it through one more year
Down here
You won't be comin' back
And I didn't get to say goodbye (goodbye)
I really wish I got to say goodbye

And I'm sure the view from heaven
Beats the hell out of mine here
And if we all believe in heaven
Maybe we'll make it through one more year
I hope that all is well in heaven (well in heaven)
Cuz it's all shot to hell down here (we need you)
I hope that I find you in heaven
Cuz I'm so...
Lost without you down here

You won't be coming back
And I didn't get to say goodbye (goodbye)
I really wish I got to say gooooodbye

2009-04-17T20:54:00.001+08:00

Together we made it.
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall.

me and my boat

2009-04-11T22:46:00.002+08:00

Not exactly a nice photo. (2007 natls )
I realize how awesome my boat is.
Unfair Advantage by Advantage Kayaks.
It's neither as expensive as a Nelo nor a Plastex.
I don't think anyone will like this boat.
But I think it's really really really really nice.
I've tried out many other boats.
It's just not the same.
It's as old as me in terms of canoeing years.
This will be our 4th national schools together.
WE'RE 4 YEARS OLD together.
So many races we've been through together.
The more memorable one includes the recent SEACC and last year Natl juniors and Natl schools.
Too bad I can't remember the exact date that I got it.
Hopefully I don't have to change boat anytime soon.
I still remember the first crack it got was from a CRESCENT K2.
I was damn angry but couldn't do anything cos it was partly my fault.
From then on,
I told myself that I need to improve so that I can avoid any more damages to my boat.
Oh and there were a few times when people who were carrying my boat dropped it.
Luckily the damages were not that bad and could be repaired easily.
Hmm...
Let's see how long we last.
Hahaha.

DAMN I LIKE MY BOAT

YEE HAA

2009-04-11T21:48:00.002+08:00

E X C I T I N G . . .
Don't you think?
Finally get to race this year.
( Apart from canoe marathon which I don't count as a race cos it was more of like training)

Some see it as just another time trial.
Others as something very important in their lives.
Whatever it is,
people are going to do their best.
Or just go down there to have fun.

H A H A H A H A H A . . .
I'm so happy.
It's going to be fun.
I still remember my first national schools in 2006.
Somehow, I made it to the finals.
I remember how I was so nervous that I started out last.
Paddled so hard in the end get second last a.k.a 5th.
-_-

2007
That year I did k1 1000m.
Faced Lucas and Boon Gan and Vasin and another 3 who I can't remember, sorry.
That year I expected to come in 4th.
At the start line I was like, "GG!".
Came out 5th I think.
Slowly caught up to Boon Gan and Lucas.
Maintain... Maintain...Maintain...
Then when time for the finish,
BOOM!!!
hahahaha.
I couldn't keep up.
Came in second runner up a.k.a 3rd

2008
I was in k1 500m and k1 1000m a.k.a double k1 event.
That was a fun year although we lost the title.
For 1000m I came in 2nd.
For 500m I came in 2nd.
Both I lose by about------------------------------------------------------------------this much.
I loved the feeling.
H O H O H O H O H O H O . . .

And this year,
same thing,
double k1.

Can't wait.

2009-04-08T21:33:00.002+08:00

Training till Sunday.
Rest on Monday.
Heats for 500m on Tuesday.
Heats for 1000m on Wednesday.
Semis for both on Thursday.
Finals for both on Friday.

And then, it will be 29 weeks to A level and 19 weeks to prelims.

And life goes on.

Whoppee....

Come on!

2009-04-03T20:39:00.002+08:00

Its been 2 days of not paddling.
I'm really sick of lying around all day watching tv.
Need to get back to training and school.
I can't even study properly because of the headache.

Once I recover, I'll never wish to pon school ever again.
Staying at home sucks. Especially when you got chicken pox.

damn it

2009-04-01T22:09:00.000+08:00

CHICKEN POX!

Out of action for some time.
I'll be back!

22 weeks

2009-03-22T23:02:00.003+08:00

Its 22 weeks to prelims.
Will i be ready till then?
Its possible but I must work FRIKKING hard.
I don't think I've ever worked hard in my life.
I don't know what its like to study hard enough to get an A.
I've never gotten an A.
Not even for PW -_-
For A levels, I will get my As.
How many I don't know.
I will soon understand how hard I've been working.
Hopefully its not enough.
Common test, Prelims and A levels.
3 terms to go!

Slow down

2009-03-19T07:50:00.002+08:00

We're halfway through the march holidays already.
I want time to slow down.
School is really suffocating.
Long hours. Short breaks.
Hate it.
I wish I can take my time to study, to play, to enjoy life.
I guess now is not the right time.
This year is so disgusting.
It's not even fun.

In the water where i center my emotion
all the world can pass me by

2009-03-16T20:04:00.000+08:00

I WANT TO RACE!

2009-03-13T20:40:00.000+08:00

I think this is nice.

In the end

2009-03-10T22:33:00.003+08:00

After much consideration,
I've finally decided.
My dream will have to wait.
I'm not going to Halifax this year for world champs.
I'll probably regret this decision in the future.

Come what may.
I leave it to You.

Halifax dream

2009-03-07T21:46:00.002+08:00

This may sound abit crazy and stupid and foolish and ..... (you get the idea)
But I will do well in common test in July ( at least a D for all my subjects)
And do my best to go for world champs in August.
If I do get to go, I will reach back S'pore on the 18th (I think)
which is one week before prelims.
Sounds crazy?
I think so.

It's gonna be one of the biggest risk I'll ever take.

The days

2009-03-04T22:13:00.000+08:00

Never thought that I'd miss all this.

The return

2009-03-02T20:55:00.005+08:00

It's 4 more days at kallang and we're going home.
Just when I'm starting to like the place.
Oh well.
Today's training kinda suck.
Felt so bad, couldn't push even if I wanted to.
Damn it.
Hate this.
Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Apart from training,
SCHOOL SUCK so bad this year.
Seriously,
for some reason, I really feel like not coming to school.
2 more weeks to holidays which I'm so looking forward to.

I screwed up my maths lecture test so badly.
Passed physics and gp.
Econs getting back tomorrow.
Geog dont know if I'll ever get back.

I need my friends.
I need to play.
I need to slack.
I need to just lay back not have any worries in the world.
I need to pass all my test.
I need to train damn hard.
I need to be a more mature person. (Geog teacher says I'm immature)
I need to be a better friend.
I need to get decent grades for common test in july.
I need to do well for nationals in april.
I need to do well in prelims.
I need to own A'levels.

I just need to survive this troublesome year.
Help please

V.day

2009-02-11T22:42:00.005+08:00

Omg, 14th feb is coming!
This is the time when guys start running!

Looking for that special gift,
to make the girls show their teeth!

Burning holes in their pocket,
travelling around like rockets.

Is gifts the only thing that matters?
Like how food makes us fatter?

Couples spend the whole day together,
Singles just gather for laughter.

To be happy is what we all want,
where all that counts is fun.

Don't be sad if you're alone,
there's always the phone.

Think of something to to do,
don't just sit at home feeling blue.

Run around with all your friends,
but don't forget to wear your pants.

Your friends will be there for you,
just like Winnie the Pooh.

Vectors

2009-02-11T22:16:00.004+08:00

Vectors is disgusting.
It means nothing.

To dot here and cross there,
its raising all my hair.

Why study vectors?
Let's give it to the alligators.

Making my brain twist here and there,
like a fox chasing after a crazy hare.

Don't you dare say it's easy,
cos you'll sound so cheesy.

Why put us through all this tortures?
It feels like being eaten by vultures.

No matter how much I hate it,
I can't put in under my feet.

For Ms Maureen Ng will hunt me down,
and make me look like a clown.

Really buay tahan,
make my head like luo han.

Day3 @ Kallang

2009-02-11T21:14:00.001+08:00

Note to self: Clean inside the boat.

Life is still good.

Water condition was bad.

Didnt feel too good paddling there.
Still too noob.
Water is as smelly as expected.
And frikkin salty.
My boat's dying.
Need to focus more.
Other than that everything else wasn't that bad.

Life is good.

Jack & Rai The fa la la Song Lyrics:
No twisted lovers
No forever and evers
I’m a sucker for simplicity
No complications
No angry telephone conversations
Seems like yesterday when
I learned to be free

If you wanna fa la la la la with me
Then let’s go let’s go
Don’t be another one just like the other one
If you wanna fa la la la la la with me
Then go oh no
I ain’t gonna wait
Cos I’m doing it fine on my own

So watcha waitin' for
Just gimme your hand and we’ll explore
The many little kinds of things that
Lovers don’t do or hardly anymore
Your clock is ticking and so is mine
Why put everything on the line
Good ol' Daddy Time says
We’ll learn to be free
I wanna be free

If you wanna fa la la la la with me
Then let’s go let’s go
Don’t be another one just like the other one
If you wanna fa la la la la la with me
Then go oh no
I ain’t gonna wait
Cos I’m doing it fine
On my own

Yessirree
I’m runnin on a new ground
Comin' from a newfound
Free is what I’m looking into calling me.

You takin' your time to think it through
I’m moving ahead with or without you

2009-02-05T21:48:00.002+08:00

Hello people.
This week is my last week at macritchie.
From next week onwards,
it will be at stinkallang.
Will be back like 5 days before Natl Juniors.
Long bus rides.
Stinky water.
Long bus rides.
Oh well.
Anyways, many, many, many tests coming up in the coming 2-3 weeks.
Finally,
I get to see where I stand.
From there, I'll decide what to do.
HATE CAR-LUNG!

What is your True Fear? Your Result: Disappointment You are a fun-loving, energetic, and cheerful person. You love adrenaline rushes, and going out at night. You constantly have to be having a great time to feel completely happy. Your biggest fear is not having anything to do, or having a huge disappointment/let down in your life. You hate being sad, and if something in your life suddenly went wrong it would be extremely hard for you to deal with. Just remember that everyone has to deal with hard times. Stay strong, and pretty soon your fun, party life will get right back the way it used to be.

Aiman is not feeling very good.
I think he's just a little bit tired.
School is a little bit boring.
And school food sucks!!!
Really cannot stand it anymore.
After every meal in school must eat at least and ice cream or a cup of fruits.
Simply awful.
Damn it.
Anyway, apart from that, 11k run time trial today.
Terrain kills the legs ( or im just weak)
John Daul got lost.
HAHAHAHA!
Abit retarded huhh.
Rj somemore.
JUST KIDDING!!!
You're still my friend...

2009-01-26T20:36:00.002+08:00

Lost in confusion

What am I going to do now?

Can't run away from the facts.

What should I do?

People tell me to do this.

People tell me to do that.

But what am I going to do now?

Am I confident enough that I won't fall?

Am I sure that this risk is worth taking?

If I screw up, its 13 years down the drain.

What am I going to do now?
