A brand new year

It's been a while again since my last touch down. I got a little inspired to do this post after reading a few other blogs.

Honestly speaking, nothing exciting had happened in the past one year, since the last official post dated back in 2010.

But a year has passed and now I'm starting a brand new year all over again. Hopefully this year will be a more happening and fulfilling one for me, since its MY year - the Dragon year.

2011 was the year that I started on my career with a full year ahead to earn what I had aimed for.

It was the year where I traveled thrice in a year (not via a plane thou, go figure!)

It was the year where I got recognised in the team and got chosen to be part of a team involved in weekly trainings by the CEO of the company. That was real exclusive, and I was really honoured.

It was the year that choreographed a mass dance and taught it to an "audience" of 200 peeps, with another partner of course!

It was the year that I visited Universal Studios Singapore with Chris and his mom & sis.

It was also the year that I did LASIK which gave me an eye so red it scared people. But that means no specs nor contacts anymore!

And it was also the year that I tried bangs and decided that I will never have that again.

And in that year, I appeared in a small column of Cleo magazine.

Ok so as you can see, my life had been pretty much dull, nothing exciting happened, and I really cant remember what other significant events happened that year.

Love <3 life is still good :)

I still meet my favourite Bs.

I still have the usual gatherings with the uni peeps.

But having said that, I hope all these wont just be for 2011 only but will continue on for many many years to come.

And work can definitely be better and family ties can be much stronger.

With that, I hope 2012 will be better. And I mean much much better.

Till then~

Chipmunk invasion

Hello lovely people! Missed me? A chipmunk has taken over my blog and invaded my own personal space! Evil evil one.

This chipmunk has got really big cheek pouches. Makes me wonder how much food can be stored in there. But anyhows, I have chased the chipmunk away and I'm trying to claim back as much space as possible. :)

So here's a picture in case you guys have forgotten who the owner of this blog is. :))

Lets see if I can try bring this place back to life again. Till then~

Oh Ziyi You Raise 'here' Up

I was looking at the traffic feed on the left of my blog layout and came to realise one thing.

I have a steady stream of "visitors" from all over coming over to this space. Why? My space? Seriously?

And upon closer look, it's Zhang Ziyi who brought them all here!

WHAT?? 5/9 visitors came because of her??!!!

Hahahaha! Cant believe the topless Zhang Ziyi post that I posted way back is still the only thing that constantly brings people to this space. So topless celebrities still get the utmost attention from people all over. Looks like in order to make this space a lil less dead, I should post entries like that more often heh?

BAH!! JUST KIDDING!

I aint got the time to go do such things man.

Zhang Ziyi, you are definitely a constant hit. :)

Saying Hi

It took me a long time before I decided to come back to this site and look through all my past entries.

There was once when a friend commented on how much easier it was in the past, to know how I was feeling. This blog was the best way. But now, it's so much tougher to decipher my thoughts, to know what's on my mind and to know why I'm feeling a certain way.

At that point of time, I couldnt help but to start tearing.

I started to think back on the days back in NUS and compared them to the life I'm leading now. Life has become so much duller and it's really dismaying to know that I'm pretty much alone in this whole new environment.

It feels weird now to sometimes meet up with friends from the past and know that I have nothing in common to talk to them about. And the feeling of being the odd one out from the past unknowingly starts coming to engulf me all over again.

Whenever I see an ex classmate's blog posts, I can feel the happiness within her whenever she pens down all those thoughts. I wish I could be like her. Embracing whatever that comes along her way with an ultra positive attitude.

I have goals to hit, dreams to reach. Time to gear up and start running towards them. And it's also probably time to start updating this space again. Soon. The next entry will be up again soon. :)

Shit pile

I foresee a busy life installed for me starting next week.

Not exactly liking the thought of it but there isnt much I can do. :(

Well it actually is a good thing if I end up being busy whole day long. Beats having nth to do at all right?

*shrugs*

and as i look back

6 August 2010 marks the day I officially end my school life in NUS. Stepping down as a MC/Dinner & Dance director was not as great as I thought it would be.

I had mixed feelings within me while I sat there and watch the top 5 gave their rounding speeches, the 2 VPs gave out the comm certificates to the respective directors, then the certs to the special mentioned comm members, Dingli giving out the plaques to the 2 active members of Science Club, plaques & certs MCs and then plaques to the outstanding MCs.





It was definitely a memorable day and I am extremely thrilled that I got back something more than expected. I gave, I gained, and I grew.

The past 3 years are probably the best in my 22 years of age. I forged new friendship with many new friends. Got myself several close friends too. Am still extremely glad that I chose to join scamp & rag dance in year 1, the events that got me so involved in Science Club.

NUS Science, the place where the memories lay. Science club, the place which created the memories. I'm leaving the place now.

A new chapter of my life is gonna unfold and I am not a bit excited at all. I know I have to move on. It's gonna be tough but I will hang in there. Life is going to be SO different I know I will wish school has not ended.

We are all going different ways now but I know that's not the last goodbye for we will meet again. So till then, my friend.

Impossible? I'm Possible

The past 2 weeks were crazy. With bash and dinner & dance on the 2 Saturdays, I spent practically everyday doing stuff in prep for the 2 events. Sleeping at 3/4 am was almost a routine and it totally drained me out. The 2 events went off well and I sure am glad that positive feedback was received.

Though there were certain things which constantly annoyed me throughout the whole process of preparation, I am still glad that I made the choice of running for the D&D D post and that my whole comm and I pulled off a wonderful show.

At least now there's something I can look back on fondly when I grow older. Sweet memories like these will just stay on forever.

I really like this picture with my dearest comm (short of 2 peeps). SO colourful!

Meliae! Loving og mates who came and support the event.

And also the NUS peeps/gang. Haha
Lovely Bs. <3>

Bam, aka my sweet & capable VD.

and Love came down too!

the manager of supperclub treated Bs to 2 drinks each, and that was enough to send me spinning.

Dinner & Dance - Old Hollywood Boulevard

the 30th SCMC, love how everyone made it a point to come dressed in old hollywood style.

Flag comm 08/09 :)

Sweet Sylvans who went down to support 3 other Sylvans. Haha.

Sadly, I didnt have much time for pictures with many others. It's really sad cause it's my event, but yet, there wasnt a chance for me to take pictures who those who came down to support. :((

And even if I did take some pictures, they were all taken by others which I have no idea who they are. Urgh.. All I can do now is to just wait patiently for all the pictures to be uploaded onto Facebook and for them to be tagged. :((

Now that all's over, I've got reports to do, accounts to settle, logistics to clear and lots more. Urghh. It's really not fun at all. After all these are settled, work is gonna kick in. I'm totally not looking forward to it. Really apprehensive of everything. But there aint no turning back now. Just gotta gear up and give it my best.

I've been very lazy nowadays. So lazy that I dont even read blogs anymore. And aside from being lazy, I've been rather busy too. Busy with D&D and stuff. It's funny how I'm getting busier after I've graduated as compared to when I was still in NUS.

Camps this year had been awesome. Both Scamp and SOW were good. You can say that it's the first time I got attached to such awesome OGs. OGs that bother planning outings after the camps and making it a point to keep in contact with each other. Nothing like these occurred in the past. And to add on, Rag & Flag created wonders this year. Science Fac got back the Chancellor's Shield and this has got to be the best FOP ever.

All the 5 FOP projects are SO successful that I'm feeling the stress pouring in. D&D has got to be double as successful since it's the last project. I'm hoping that D&D would be such a hit that everyone will wanna go for D&D next year, the year after and many many years later. Haha.

I've got so many more things to blog about but I am just too lazy.

I've got night cycling tomorrow but I'm still down with flu that just doesnt seem to be getting any better. So I shall now head to lala land and hope that I'll be slightly better tomorrow. good nite! :)

time waits for no man

Everyone around me has watched either Inception, Despicable Me or both. But I, have caught neither of it. NEITHER! I'm like so freaking lagging la..

I so want to catch these 2 shows but I just can't find the time to do so. :((

I bet by the time I find the time, none of the cinemas will be screening them already. I the really think I should go catch them if they are still on by this coming Wednesday.

And the reason why I've been missing in action for the past 10+ days is simply because of my last and final camp in NUS. I can't believe that I will not have any more of these camps to join in the next 60+ years of my life. Sounds pretty drastic huh?

I will definitely miss the sleep overs in school, crazy dry & wet games, beach games, getting dunked in the sea, seeing freshmen play '7 wonders' and many many more. Life will never be as fun again.

Honestly, I'm afraid of starting the new chapter of my life. Life will be so different I dont know if I'm able to adapt. I know I have to even if I can't.

I still remember how I used to wish I could quickly grow up, start working and get married and have kids when I was still in my 10s cause I disliked studying with all the exams going on. My mom would then say that it is always better to be studying and having fun. It beats working hands down. I didnt believe her back then, but now, I do.

The short 3 years in NUS has got to be the best 3 years I've ever had in my life so far. I made far more good friends than ever. Friends I believe I will never stop contacting for the rest of my life. The memories created and the friendships forged. I'm really glad I took this path.

Now that everyone is embarking on their new chapters of their lives, I sincerely wish everyone all the best.

Hahaha okay enough of all the emo stuff. I just couldnt stop. I think I've typed enough to revive this dying blog though it isn't an interesting one. Shall do up another interesting one some day this week. Good night!

all we need from you.

It's funny how one can treat one's friends even better than one's family. You talk bad about your family members but sing praises for your friends. So that's what family is all about to you.

I think everyone's immune to your blabbering but I still cannot stand your nonsense. I seriously dont know what's so nice about alcohol that it can get you so addicted to it.

You claimed that $50 is nothing to you because it's not even enough to pay for your 2 days worth of beer. 2 days of beer worth >$50 is 10 days worth of lunch for me. If you're so generous as to offer the money to your friend, why not give it to your children who are even more in need of it?

And everytime you hear about how your "FRIENDS' children" treat them, you think that we will do the same thing to you. Just because of these hear say, you see us in the same light. I dont know what you want from us. But I know all we want from you is to be a loving father, a father who will not treat his children like dung.

Can you?
