After today, soccer would be a very different thing to me... This morning's match against the Hougang people... Haix... We lost 7-2 to them. Funny right?? Haha... We might be just out of luck or we can say that we really didnt put our hearts in the match... It depends on the reasons that I stated here but the prob is still... we lost the match. A pathetic 7-2 scoresheet. That was what we got in Punggol... We didnt even train for more than 3 weeks and yet we still went for the match. I really dont know nowadays soccer is what. A noble art for all people but yet people wanted to get this kind of skills without practising. Each time I asked if anyone would like to play soccer, the replies are "tired... sian... next time..." No wonder we didnt did well today. Say we were unlucky... BLAH!! What the crap is that... The team was not a fit team at all... Everyone was busy with work and lack of match practise... Typing this makes my blood boil... What the...

Early the morning, I went to AMK to get the boots from Eric. I went to AMK with my Mum since she worked nearby Eric's house... Anyway, I was late meeting Jimmy, Amirul, and Jonathan.. Haix... When we reached Woodlands MRT station, Eugene, Szaywan and Jack were there... The rest... Haix... Missing... We waited for nearly 45 minutes yet Hakim and Fidaus have not come yet... Since we were late, we took a cab to Punggol instead. Although we reached Punggol around 10 plus, Hakim and Fidaus was on the way... They reached the place around 11 plus... What the... Everyone waited for them... By the way, Haikal was not there as he had something on in school... What the... He told me that he would come but it turned out to be a crap. Never mind bout that... Problems start to arose when we reached the venue.

Everyone got ready for the match and when we want to start playing, this guy came and asked if we got permit or not... Dotz... So they mean that the field could not be used unless it's officially booked??!!! Alright.. I understand what they mean. I have been to that field before for 2 times.. Both times were for the trial... Since we could not use the field, we went to a nearby field instead... At that field, there's no posts... nothing... Just a patch of wet grass that's all... We took nearly half an hour to reach that plain field... It really kills me with the scorching sun glaring its light at me.. We got ready by putting the shoe bags as goal post and corner kicks... We start the match eventually...

1st half... We were down 3-1... we scored first but after that, our defense got cock-up... No one was defending... even me... I was too tired to run since I was the first one to be on the field among the rest of my teammates... I did try to defend but still, not that good at all. Their strikes are very lucky... Some hitting us while some... lucky shots... Not trying to say that we are a strong team but they were in a advantage. In our area... the grass was suck. Its really wet and it was like a mini flood at your bathroom. The ball would be on the ground next to you even if you whack the ball as hard as you could. That was why they were able to score... Once we tried to clear the ball, the ball would just stay at there... letting our opponents to have the opportunity to strike... As 1st half end... Jimmy and Jack told me what I should do... Seriously, I wasnt that happy at all, especially Jack's lecture... Why I say that?? Easy... He wasted too much time.. Instead of crossing the ball, he hold on the ball... too long... To him it might not be long but to me, IT IS LONG...

2nd half.. The team's spirit seemed to be getting better... in the end, getting better in the concede of goals... I know Sion and the rest knew that I treat this game very seriously... However, they still played it in a relax way... probably it's because of the goals that we could not catch up at all. After they struck another ball into our post, everyone started to relax... What the... We should not give up at all right?? Alex got the opportunity to strike but he decide to do Samba dance... What the... I agree that it's funny but what we were lacking then were the goals.. not the dance moves... Haix... I really feel like banging my head now... Anyway... That wasnt the end... Our players got injuried... One by one... First was Anan, then Jimmy and lastly... me... Holly gosh... Why me?? Injuried... Anan should have a cramp at the muscle... while Jimmy ah da cramp at his tighs... Mine?? More serious than the rest... Both of my legs were having cramps... It was not long that I pulled my muscle on my left foot... The whole tigh was in pain but I still continue to play on... I keep bearing the pain for more than 15 minutes or so... Each strike I took on the ball, it would be like a bee had stung my muscle... The whole leg got dead at last when I tried to bend it... It was just jammed... with my foot turning slightly towards the right... I was totally yelling in pain on the ground... Luckily the rest helped me and thanks to Fiadus, carrying me to the side of the pitch to recieve treatment from Jonathan... Haix... I really could not move by then but after asking Jonathan how many minutes left, I changed my mind and continued to play the game, even if it cost me to lose both of my legs for the next few days or weeks... I got one scoring opportunity but I missed it... Haix... What the... Hate it when its time to shine yet my muscles are tight...

That was how we lost the game with 7-2... Furthemore, since we changed sides of the pitch, their side was still in advantage as now the water had dried up and they were using mud to be the stopper for our ball. The ball wont travel on mud as its too hard to do so. While on our ground, it was dry... That was why they could attack us no matter what. Plus the injuries that our players had... It's hard to make sure that we could win the match after all..

Looking at today's performance, I think I wasnt doing my best at all... Thanks to the injuries, right now I have difficulty walking... What I need more is rest... That would be the key solution for quick recovery... I hate myself for not only not performing well but not putting much effort on the team. As the right back, I kept going upwards... what a 'Gary Neville' I'm... My promise to Charissa did failed after all... I have no means to make a promise... Haix... Although Sion told me to play the match on my way, I really tried but quite hard... Thanks Sion.. your encouraging words really make me feel better... I thnk defence is not my best... Attacking is... Just like Szaywan said to me during the past. My speed could be a good thing after all... After today's match... Soccer... What is soccer to me?? I know that losing is part of the game but why cant anyone want to be serious... All the talking and crapping... I will remember that Hakim asked me if I had cramps and he said serve you right... I really want to show him what the hell I could boost the team but still unsuccessful... Cramps... Muscle pulls... I hate it... cant do the stuff I learnt during the clips of Cristiano Ronaldo... I did some but that caused me to have the cramps... especially the Cryuff Turn... Haix... I think I must train my stamina now... Run more after my leg fully healed... train my shootings more and most of all... Skills... That's what I'm going to prove to the rest...

Man Utd also lost against Chelsea... Seeing Jack's delight face makes me feel that Chelsea is none other than a pathetic team... A team which used money to buy good players... While for Man Utd, a true spirit of fighting and winning the matches they had. Chelsea did use money to buy their way to the trophy but they didnt do it fairly... Just look at Man Utd... They allow youngsters to play, making sure everyone did contribute to the winning or losing of a match.. Chelsea just let their youngsters become useless... Making sure that youngsters of this age are not talented at all.. It's just that these youngsters have not show their potential... I dont really know how Chelsea had their training but one thing everyone knows... They are Champs for this year's title.. but they could be sore losers of the year... Jack.. Chelsea supporter for life??? Well, just because they're winning that's why... I wonder what if Chelsea keep losing in the next few years... I think he lost his respect to Chelsea in the end.. but not me... A true United fan.. A true couraged and determined man...

Right now, I'm really tired... Sick of soccer currently... I just feel that my team sucks for today... Thats all... All the crap that I had been typing.. Haix... You all could treat this as a cock and bull story but to me, its a lesson that I had learnt.. and making sure that I must improve... in order to win the rest... No matter what happens... I would still be the Gary Neville that I had promised myself... and the Cristano Ronaldo that skills would come upon... To play soccer in my way... Thats a true meaning of soccer in me... from now on... Thats why... the Reds might fall but they would still stand up and be determined enough to fight... even if their wounds hurt...

Soccer, soccer, soccer... Everytime I say things, it would be this word coming out. Right now, it's time for me to shine. Tomorrow would be the soccer match that Jack had set up. It's considered the rematch of Canberra vs Hougang... Haha... Olden days, sweet memories. It's the same thing as before, when we defeated them in Hougang field with the aggregate 6 - 2. We won the match and now it seems to be another round. This time, they have changed their players. Heard from Jack that it seems like they had changed more than 9 players or so.

This scenario is just like the EPL. Chelsea vs Man Utd. Our team are like Man Utd while their team are like Chelsea. Chelsea was able to win the title after spending lots of money on players. Just like the team we are facing tomorrow, that team has many of their teammates changed. Furthermore, they seemed to be stronger than before. The better they are, the tougher the challenge is... While for us, Man Utd, there's no change in the players. They are still the regulatr players, players fro 5E3 and other classes. Most of all, what we had to face them now is pride. Pride is in our hands so we must win the game no matter what. To add on, the Hougang people are wearing blue tomorrow while we wear red. Sounds like its the Blues vs the Reds... Another classic encounter.. or you people prefer to call it the clash of the titans??? Suite yourself then...

Tomorrow night would be the match of Chelsea vs Man Utd. 7.30pm. I really wish I could convince my Mum to let me watch the match. Moreover, tomorrow I had a match against the Hougang dudes... haha... That really sounds for real, indeed... I would be playing as right back for tomorrow's match. Although I hate to admit but my defense is really suck. Seriously, I always lose out to my defense. I'm good at attacking rather than defending. Why?? My speed is the fastest among the wings... Some of the fastest players in my team that I could think of?? Hum... Eugene, Jimmy, Hakim, Anan, Sion, Amirul (Long distance runner for 2.4km run) and Alex. Maybe I'm been praising them for too long since they were better than me, able to understand the art of soccer since at a young age. I know my speed is fast but I would not do well in my crossings and passes. Anyway, I would have no choice but to try my best. Although my attacks are alright, tomorrow's main objective, as what Jack had said, not to let our keeper touch the ball. Of course, not conceding any goals is the best.

Now, the pressure is up. I think I gonna take a nice nap instead of worrying. Gary Neville... MAn Utd's captain... Charissa's favourite player... Now I would promise myself... to play like him, GARY NEVILLE. Although I prefer Cristiano Ronaldo, I will play Gary Neville for once, just for the sake of the team, as well as a gift to my MDM... Charissa... This is for you... I will tell you the good news.. for sure... Just wait...

Time to sleep now... good luck everyone... Tomorrow is our day.. We must win it. Since we win it once, why dont we just win it one more time... Just like George Best said during the final of the Champions League against Benfica during the 1960s... "IF YOU WIN IT ONCE, WIN IT AGAIN..." Teamwork... everyone... We are striving for gold... that's our goal...

The Band got a Merit for the Marching Assessment last Saturday... I dont know if it's a good thing or not as it seemed that everyone wanted to get the COD (Certificate of Distinction). Anyway, I reached school around 1.50pm. I was told to reach school by 1.30pm. Haha... It seems that I always late. Thanks to Jack, who taught me the art of coming late... Now I realised that I'm always late for things. Whether it's school or meetings, I'm still late for that... Haha... Alright, back to the thingy.

We board the bus to the National Stadium at around 2.15pm. In the bus, most of the seats were occupied. I actually had no seats but in the end, I asked a Sec 1 to give up a seat for me while he can have a special privilege to sit on my lap... hehehe... During the journey, I helped Ms Pan to do some filming. I asked the Sec 1s how they feel about the main Band. Well... the replies were like "Okay lo... very good..." However, I believe that they also want to cheer the main Band no matter what they get. It's like we are united even if we still have this incisible barrel between us... That's what I call an interaction... Since I'm an unknown to the juniors, I must try to communicate with them, ensure that they still know my pressence in the Band.

We reached the stadium and everyone was quite nervous. The reason for that... the first performance was by our Band; Canberra Secondary Band. Haha... I was there trying to film the Band's marching but it was a very shot. The filming was very bad as my hands were shivering. Maybe it was because I hold the box of bottles for too long and I didnt get to rest my hands... or maybe it's because of the push-ups that I had did during the morning. I really dont know. What I really know was that while filming the thing, my hands were shaking... Even my juniors were asking me if I'm alright anot... Haha... After filming the second Band's performance, I gave up... i returned the video cam to Ms Pan... Haha... Sorry Ms Pan... Just because my hands are shivering, my shooting went badly... My bad...

That wasnt the worst part of the day. Since I'm thirsty, I went to buy a drink outside the stadium. I really dont know where the hack is the stall since I do not go to this stadium regularly. Anyway, I try to find the stall but it turn out to be unsuccessful. As I continue to walk, I saw my juniors and I questioned them where they were going. In the end, it was the 3 of us, looking for a drink... What the... We kept walking and walking... and walking... and walking... Gosh!!! WHERE THE HACK IS THAT STALL???!!!!! This really piss me off while thinking of it. In the end, we found the 'drinks stall', actually it's a vending machine... What the.... We bought the drinks and went back. We went to the nearest stairs to enter the stadium... To our surprise, we actually walked 3/4 of the stadium. My mind was thinking, so actually we had walked a BIG round just to buy a drink... What the... Forget it... What's done is done... Just sit down and relax and watch the performance... Haix...

As time passed by, I saw lots of Bands performing... From the best performances to the alright performances... haha... It was really interesting to see these bands played. Although our school's standard are not up to their level, at least we did try something during the Marching Assessment. We can try it and not just lose it, right??!!! Hehe.. In the end, we got a Merit for the Marching Assessment. It's not a bad thing after all. Everyone did very well. Even if they didnt, at least they still put their best effort on the whole thing. Band, you really did well in my own opinion. Although the training was hard and tough, your efforts were paid foff by getting a merit... Its better than getting a COP right... look at the bright side for those who still feel down... Relax... Smile... and concentrate in your studies right now...

After the whole thing, we went back to school. That was the worst travel I had ever been to. The bus... actually there were 2 buses but only 1 make it to the stadium. The another bus could not enter the stadium's parking lot since a jam had occured. Never mind about that. Worst of all, all the band members had to squeeze into the bus. About 60 people boarding a bus which allows only 40 people... What the... I was the cordinator again, shouting the Band members to squeeze in, as well as getting them to seat in 3s in a row... What the... After s while, we finally got out of the jam and I left the bus to catch the vacant one... Much better... I dont know what happen to the first bus but the second bus, everyone was having fun... I took the video cam to interview the rest and we had a mini chat... Haha... For me, I'm tired and happy... tired since I was out for the whole day... happy for the achievement that we had...

After the Band ended, Chris and I went to Jonathan's house to have a party... Well, the party was actually a guys party but Chris was an exception... haha... Not saying that she's a guy but just because she's Jonathan's god-sis, as well as Eugene's and Jack... Whatever... She has this God-Bro policy with the rest that I really dont know who she refers as god-bro... After she took her shower, everyone went to buy the wine... Vodka... Hooch... an dmany more... Chris and I also bought our meals since we had not eaten anything at all. We went back and feasted... until 11 plus, Eugene, Kian Wee, Chris and I went down to watch soccer... Chris actually was going back home... While on the way to the bus stop, Eugene and Kian Wee were discussing about the seats at the coffeeshop to wacth Chelsea vs Liverpool... They suggested to go Yishun and watch. Before I had a chance to answer them, Kian Wee went to flag for the Taxi... What the... I havent even say anything yet and you help me make a decision... What the... nothing to say... Just board the taxi and head to Yishun...

Watching the match was quite exciting. Chelsea lost in the end. We walked back to Jonathan's house and the rest started eating the Carrot cake that we had bought... After that, there was this Naruto competition... People started to team up with each other and the first round was totally amazing... With the odds 5-5... a last victory would predict which team wins... in the end, my team won... Haha.. but after that, I kept losing... While playing the game, I got abit drunk after drinking Vodka... Raymond and I were the ones to knock out first... I was too tired that I slept on the floor, with a cushion on my back... Since I have no place the sleep, my body was on the cushion, my legs were on the wall... vertically on the wall... funny right??!!! Raymond took the space of the bed. I actually wana put my legs on the bed but since he's sleeping, I dont want to disturb him and I did that... Woke up at around 9 plus and found myself surrounded my 'dead bodies'... haha... Jimmy and the rest were sleeping... Lying on the floor... haha...Guess everyone were drunk after all... haha...

Anyway, Yun Ting, happy birthday... Sorry for not turning up yesterday as I had lessons till 5pm. After that, I had my CCA from 6 to 8pm... Hehe... My CCA was actually swimming but it turn out to be Water Polo instead. Never mind. Since I like to try new things, Water Polo would be a good idea after all.. hehe... Alright... ending here now... This sat would be the match at Punggol... Good luck people...

Finally got the time to type this blog once again... Problems are raising these days... Actually, it's not considered as problems but just a problem. However, the problem is a HUGE one... Something wrong with my Poly registration. I put the cheque, also known as the school fees, into the package and sent it to the Poly, instead of sending it to UOB Bank... What the... How carelss could I be, without reading the instructions on the booklet. Right now, I'm in a very risky situation; you get the course or you lose the course. I consulted my teacher for assistance and was told to look for the SW (Sports and Wellness Management) Teacher, Mr Lionel Teo.

Alright, I went to his office and talked to him about what had happened... He wrote down the details and said that he would try to make the neccessary arrangements for me, helping me to get a place in that course. I really hope he can do that for me. This course is my life from now on. I think it would make my future bright... I really look sports and like I said, I will put my very best in this course to make sure that I can be a Sports coach or a P.E. teacher. Dreams and determination are the ones to make someone to go after, making sure one would get what he wants in the end after lots of hardwork has been done... Right now, all I could do is to pay the bill tomottow early morning and make sure that everything goes smoothly well. On Monday, please... PLEASE let me hear the good news from the teachers that I'm enrolled into the course and would be part of SW0602... Adidas... That's my class...

Seriously, although I try to interact with my classmates, I really like them alot. They are sporty and active. Furthermore, there seems to be no Chelsea supporter in my class. Haha... Sorry Jack, seems like NYP's Sports and Wellness Management do not invite Chelsea supporters at all... Haha.. Dont believe you can try go to our head's office, Mr Lionel Teo. When you entered his room, you will feel like you are at home; Anfield... Haha... posters of Liverpool players filled the room. Too bad Eugene was not in the same course with me or else there would be a Liverpool fanclub organised by Mr Lionel Teo. By the way, my class consist of more than 5 Liverpool supporters... Second highest is Arsenal supporters and of course Man Utd and Barcelona supporters... (Jack.. See!! Told you... Chelsea is not part of the class at all...Haha...)

Yesterday was Mr Ong's birthday. Just look at my previous post and you could see some lyrics being put up on the blog. That was the song that I wrote for him... hehe... Anyway, I was late in the beginning. I had mentoring with the kids, er... I mean students from 3N2 and 4N1 in Canberra. I reached Northpoint to collect the cake at 6.30, which supposed that 6.30 wa sthe time to gather at the tuition centre. What the... I'm always late... only for that day... I realised that since in the morning. I played my game till I was late for lesson... I was late for the meeting with the directors of NYP... I was late for mentoring in Canberra... AND... I was late for the party... Well, after collecting the cake, Mah, Hong and me took a cab and rushed to the tuition centre at Chong Pang. Luckily we were on time... haha... Phew... (But still considered as late... Reach the place at 6.45 instead of 6.30... What the...

I placed the cake and everyone went to hide. We hide inside Mr Ong's office since he's teaching. We wanted to give him surprise after all since he doesnt know that we were there... Haha.. Well, Poh Ee, Ruo Ling, Jacinth, Joanna and Jessica were there... started to hide already... Haha... The most funny thing was that they wanted to jump out when Mr Ong entered the room. However, Ruo Ling was hiding under the table... How do you expect the person who hide under the table to jump up... What the... Just want to tell her... "CAUTION!!! Mine your head gal... You're not young for that..." Hehe... Kidding.. Dont whack me the next time you see me... hehe...

Since the office was small and there's no other place to hide, Mah, Hong and I went to hide in the classroom, which had all the food in it... Although we were hiding under the table, we find ourselves very uncomfortable. Since young, we love to play Hide and Seek in the classroom. In the past, we could get to play by crawling... Now... Dont talk about it.. Even going under the table do have some dificulty... Haha... Told you, we are getting taller, bigger and older... haha... When Mr Ong entered the class with the lights off, everyone started to sang the 'Happy Birthday' tune to him. Just look at his face, smiling just like he used to be. He was glad that we came and celebrate his birthday... He wont cry of course... haha.. However he said a few words by thanking us for what we had done.... (Sob... so touching... hehe...)

After blowing the candle, we started to have a toast. Above the age of 12 could get a chance to drink wine while below the age of 12 get a chance to drink Coke... haha... Sorry kids.. Maybe you alls hould be above the age of 12... hehe... try harder next time.. hehe... we had 3 toasts and after that, everyone started to feast. I was semi-drunk by then. Thanks to Jessica, who poured her wine into my cup, as well as Glenn's... You people really know how to make me go drunk... Gosh!! I think I'm really a weak drinker after all... hehe... While eating,Jacinth showed Mr Ong a slideshow that she had done to show our appreciation to Mr Ong. There were the past photos that we had and the many things that happened during those days, all typed into the slides. Furthemore, birthday wishes from many people were in the slides too... Haha... It really makes Mr Ong to feel so glad, especially when he heard of Othniel's name in it... What memories we had shared for the many years we spent...

After the presentation, it was my turn to 'host' the show... I started to sing the song that I composed. Although it sounded sucky, or you can say it sounded like a song for the National Day parade.. (according to Mdm Chow, my Chinese tutor for the past 8 years... which I also agreed that it sounded funny... haha...) Moreover, I sang the song with the wrong notes, causing my voice to go haywire... haha... Sorry people.. I didnt mean to sing it that way but since I was drunk... No choice... Since there's no music, everyone clapped their hands when I stopped at a certain verse or chorus... I wanted to sing the whole song without interruption but I cant prevent it... haha... They clapped for more than 4 times as they do not know when the song ends... Haha... Poor me... feeling embarassed each time they clapped...

After my song, it was Yong Hong's turn. Since he doesnt know any English songs, he created one of his own Chinese version songs... It sounded nice with his voice partly haywire too. I think that day everyone had too much drinks, which resulted our voice to be so weird... haha... Hong's song was quite funny as it was really hard to think of the tune and the lyrics at such a short period of time. He did tried he did it. His song?? Well, telling the rest about the past of how he feel about Mr Ong and he ended with remembering how Mr Ong treated him... hehe... Poh Ee was next but he sang half way, he stopped. he decided to make his personal speech. There were nice words to all the staff in Enrich (tuition's centre's name...) and everyone was like saying, "Poh Ee, you're the MAN!!!" Hehe... Mah had his mini speech later on but was cut short since he's not good with words... anyway, nice try Mah... I know you are always shy but at least you let everyone know how you feel about the centre... hehe...

After the fun, everyone continued with the feasting. Mr Ong made a surprise decision by doing some AMAZING stunts to all of us. It really did amaze everyone since it was the first time we saw him do 'those' stunts... Haha... I cant explain the details here since it's very personal... hehe... only those who were there would knew about it... hehe... After that, more whacky things happened between Hong and me... hehe... Everyone did took a group photo before we call it a day. I was really glad to see everyone again. Everyone with their smiling faces. Everyone with new characteristics and new things beyond them. Things like Poh Ee, Jacinth and Ruo Ling has their steads.... Things like Hong, Mah, Joanna and Jess are still single... hehe... got what I mean right... hehe... Kidding people... Later I get whacked by you people again... Wow... haha... But it's a nice thing isnt it... hehe...

Well, that's all for now... People get drunk yesterday... have fun yesterday... enjoy yesterday... memories yesterday... Back to serious work from today... AR!!!

This song is delicated to my tuition teacher, Mr Westly Ong. Tomorrow is his birthday and yet i have not decided what to buy for him. Actually, it was suppose to be Hong, Mah and me sharing money to buy a perfume for him. However, we are shortage of money. The money we had earned were not enough for us to pay our Poly fees. Poor us, we need to start working soon to make sure we have enough funds to study Poly...

Anyway, I was the one wh came out with the idea of writing a song for him. Save time; save money; save resources... and most of all, using our brain cells frequently... haha... Kidding... However, composing this song is really hard. With the timeline not a good one for me, I need to think hard... using simple English, which I had to since my English is super bad... Furthermore, Mr Ong only understands English songs... haha...

So, I composed the tune... yesterday... Edit some of the tunes today to make sure that it sound good. Although it might not be a perfect piece, it does have the feelings of what I had udner him for the past 9 years or so. Without him, you people wont see the real me... haha... Crappy again... Anyway, just looking at the time now, I think I spent about 3 hours to think of the lyrics and the way to sing it... Cool!! Hehe... Anyway.. here's the song... Hope you people like the lyrics... hehe...



Title: Oh Teacher!!

Lyrics: Nicholas Teo

Delicated to: Mr Westly Ong

Message: Happy brithday... Wish you well at al times and smile always... hehe...



Verse 1
'Learning never ends'
That's what you always said
The precious words you give us
will be kept in our hearts

Verse 2
Push us from the start
to make sure we work hard
Although we keep putting a long face,
you still try to make us smile

Verse 3
You lecture us when we make mistakes
You would scold us to ensure that we change
But the happy memories that we shared would never fade

Chorus
Oh Teacher!
Thanks for your love and care
Without you,
I doubt my future still lies in my hands
With you,
my world of darkness would lighten up again
For you,
Happy Birthday and hope your wishes would come true


Verse 3

Chorus X2

Dear Friend, Happy Birthday to you...

Ar!! Tired... so tired... I really need to recharge my battery to make sure that I can train my soccer tomorrow.. haha... The Sports Fest, held at te CCAB (think so...) was fantastic.. Just look at the sight of different classes competing to get the top spot of the competition. Just look the enthusiasm those students have... Haha... you definitely get to know how they feel, mentally as well as physically. Alot of funny things happen in a single day... Sme good, some bad... Well, let me summarised what happened during the Sports Fest...

Early the morning, as usual, my Sis and I went to the place through car. Alright... We reached there, I helped the teachers while she joine dher classmates.. No choice, I'm the senior of Canberra, can be known as the 'Lao Jiao' (Old Bird)... hehe... Anyway, while I helped the teachers, bad weather began to spoil the whole show... Rain start pouring and everyone had to flee to the hall. Haha.. Anyway, I was being put as the Empire for Frisbee. Strange... I'm a NOOB in Frisbee and they put me as the Empire for the match... What the... LUckily, I got another senior to tell me the rules and regulations... Haix... poor me, I got to know what is right and hwat is wrong... I was handling the Sec 3 Boys... also known as the most competitive level in the school. When I mean it... it really is...

The first match started and things started to get too rough. I just start the first match and it ended up people starting a fight. What a Empire I'm... haha... Anyway, I just tried to cool them down. No matter what happens, it's all fair play, fair and square. Since you cant win it, lose it. There's no point fighting your opponents after the match. Punch and kicks... Legs and fists... Come on guys... Thinsg arent gonna start like that or end up like that... Chill... Relax... Shake a hand or two and try to say praises to the other teams.. Know yourself before concluding others... Hehe.. Maybe I'm talking too much crap here... Haha... Anyway, just let me continue...

The first match... Rough...Violent.. Nearly start a fight... Alright, that settled... The next match... quite better... Luckily I said no fights allowed... or else there would be a round 2... haha.. Then, the third match was getting better.. I see more team spirit among the classes. They would signal each other before passing the firsbee to the other end. It's much better than the previous 2 matches. Seriously, if I end up wounded during the fight... Gosh... I will be in the hospital typing these things now... Haha... alright, cut the crap.. Continue...

In the end, I think is 3E3 won the match. All I know was that it's Tom's class who won the Frisbee competition. Alright, that was not the end, there was still the 'second shift'. The Sec 1s and 2s. Wow!!! This is getting more and more. Actually, I wasnt feeling too good by then. I have a sore throat after shouting for more than 2 hours at the competition among the Sec 3s. I keep shouting 'Start!' without the whistle. I dont have the whistle, that's the prob... Furthermore, VJ assisted me in the time-keeping... Thansk to you, VJ, you help me keep track of time... haha.. Furthermore, with fairus helping me as the second empire... I think the match went well... Good refereeing and judgement... Although there were some cases that made us having headaches... You help me to get ease a little and find some air to breathe... haha...

The match was quite.. quite... well, erm... or I should say... SUPER TERRIBLE... haha... The Sec 1s do not know the rules about frisbee. That's not the worst part. The worst part was that they do not know how to play... That will be the most difficult job for me. I tend to forget some rules and I dont like to explain to people. I have this difficulty in giving proper instructions. That is why each time I mentor the Sec 4Ns, you can just look at my face... Giggling none stop, keep saying "Sorry... I gave the wrong info..." Dotz... What the... Mr Aw Yong wanted me to give the kids on how to play firsbee... That's gonna kill me... haha... Making me nuts as each second pass by...

1N2's appearance in the game makes me have a bad feeling. Ms Lee was the form teacher of that class and as a former student of her's, one would understand the hardship and suffering would faced if you dont go her way. The result; DIE!! That's the word that everyone in the class fear... Terminated from her campaign, exiled from the class forever... That's the worst thing than death. Well, 1N2 did work well in the first match but not the second and last match. The first match... it's a good thing they won the match. Their opponents dont know much about frisbee that's why... Haha... However, they lost the second match through bad luck... Luck wasnt on their side as they lost 1-0. What a rotten luck. The last match; a well hard fought match that ended up 0-0 at full-time. However, they lost 1-0 during the golden goal opportunity. What a luck they had. Sorry Ms Lee, although you showed me thedeath signal, with your finger moved across you neck... Well, I think I wont go for your mentoring class for the next few weeks to prevent myself from getting the punishment that you're ready to give me... hehe... Anyway, treat this the chance to help you cool down after the Sports fest. Chill Ms Lee, chill...

Looking at how 1N2 played, it reminds me of how my class played last year. The fight spirit within us never disappeared at all, even if we were going through the hardest battles, facing the strongest enemies. Fear is not in our mind by then. Winning was what we want and everyone in the team would try their best to win it. This was how 1N2 played. They made sure that they would expose their opponents weakness and attacked them againa nd again. However, they keep missing the chances. Seriously, being the Empire of that group is not a good feeling at all. It's terrible so Ms Lee, I hope you understand what I mean.. Most of all, please... please... dont be so petty about not winning. I know you wanted your class to win everything but that's beyond imagination... Anyway, you did gave your class the will power and the life skills of being a team. You did well for that so stop the nagging alright??!! Hehe...

Thats not the end of the whole thing. If you people had watch the Nike Football advertisement, you get to understand more about fair play, cheaters and many more. These are life skill lessons that one should have. In this world, fairness is the most important thing. some classes do not have the ability to make sure that they were playing friendly as well as playing properly. The upper level played rough but some classes had their unhappiness showed out to their opponents, starting a confrontation... While for the lower level, they showed the way of unfairness by doing things that are not suppose to do, making one feel that they were cheaters. Throwing the frisbee to another side is one thing... Doing it once or twice is understandable but if you do it frequently, people would think hat it's not so fun at all. A victory would end up with nothing for the team with taht kind of play. What's important is teamwork and the quality possess by each person. That's how the game should be. I undertstand winning is the basic factor in competitions but bear in mind, being cheated is not a good feeling at all... Haix...

As the competiton ended, I realised that the seniors not only got the thanks from the teachers, thanking us for joining them to make this Sports fest successful. Furthermore, it gave us the experience of helping out. However, I still gain something. I 'earned' it. The thing that i gained was none other than sorethroat. Yeah... sorethroat. Without using the whistle, I had shouted for the whole morning.. From 8 plus till 12 plus... A tired experience for sure. Right now, I'm having flu and sorethroat. Thanks for being under the rain, I was totally drenched and thats what i got in the end... What a day.

After the whole event, I went to find Eugene and gang. Instead of taking the bus, I decide to walk to Newton Circle Hawker Centre... a long journey which took me 20 to 30 minutes... By then, when I reached my destination, my legs were getting weaker and weaker. All I want is a nice sofa for me to sit on and take a good nap. However, I was also hungry during that process, that makes me feel that food is the first piority before I sleep. After taking my lunch, the rest went to Orchard to buy their things... I tagged along as I have nothing to do at home. While shopping around, as usual, my legs could not take it. When I saw a seat, I would sit on it even if it gave me a minute or two of rest. My legs were having blisters after the walking and running. After that, they went to meet Chris, Jacq and Ivy... Dennis and her boy were at there too... Haha... Looks like a gang is really a gang and I mean a big one... hehe... Overall, there's 11 of us... Haha... Not bad huh??!! A soccer team... hehe...

After all the shopping, we went to the arcade near Plaza Singapura... They played street basketball for a long time. The highest score was 360 plsu points... Haha... Everyone tried to shoot and I ended up being scolded by the owner for having itchy hands... Haha.. Who cares about him... We continued to play... Jimmy played soccer, as usual... haha... While Chris and I played Para Para Paradise... I did quite alright for that as I have not played it since last year. Seriously, I remembered that I played it last year during Chinese New Year. After a game or two, I kinda get the steps correct... hehe... Chris danced the tune, 'Remember Me', which was danced by the group of friends of ours during last year's New Year... Sweet memories of ours... Haha... I kinda miss that dance.. hehe... However, my dance was funny. Not horrible, not catchy but funny... I nearly fo a kungfu dance in the end. It was known as... 'No Cake'... haha... maybe I should try a harder level next time.

We went back home at 8 plus and I reached home about 9 plus... tired... Exhausted... Haha... but it was really fun... Till now, it's still fresh in my mind... Got to take my nap now... Training starts tomorrow... I mean swimming training... By the way, the soccer match that Jack has would be held on 29 April... People, get ready on that day... its a clash between the gladiators... hehe... Canberrians against the Hougang dudes... haha..

Haix... As usual, my room is still messy. It really makes me feel sick and tired of tidying the room. All the books... and many other stuffs... I feel like throwing them away but I couldnt. Although these books birngs me memories, the worst part is that my Mum wants me to keep the books for my Sister's usage... What the... Dont she read the papers that the Government would change the syllabus duringa certain year or so.... Well, I cant argue with her. She's considered the 'Boss' in the family too, that's why she's bossy at times... haha... Kidding... Today I gonna complete all the packing... and get ready for my Poly orientation tomorrow...

Poly Orientation??? hearing these 2 words can make me feel sick at times... Why?? School is starting... Life is getting boring again. New friends and new facilities... Sometimes I hate that as I'm not so socialised with other people, esoecially people who are in my age and they are from different schools... Independent schools... Schools like R.I., RGS... and many more... I just cant cope with that kind of pressure... I remembered the experiences that I faced during my M.I. 3 months course... Pathetic... I just a loner at there, talking to the boys and not the gals... Just keep sticking to my friends... Sorry for the bad socialisation with you people...Maybe i was too shy to talk... Maybe I think our characters are not alike at all... Hard to communicate with the fluent English speakers... haha... At least i try to communicate... hehe...

A new life in Poly, you bet!!! I think I need to start from round 1 again... Hope there would be gals in my class... Haha... Kidding... I'm not that desperate or what... I just wish that there would be more boys than gals in the Sport and Wellness Management course... For my past Secondary school life... Gals... Some are smart, some are crazy... That's my opinion... hehe... However, the prob that I'm facing these days is that I could not understand what gals are thinking... Maybe i' going to the library later to borrow books such as 'Understanding Women in 101 Ways' or 'Understand Women for Dummies - Limited Edition' Haha... Kidding... There's no such books in libraries... Furthermore, I dont want to say bad things about them... Relax gals... Just kidding but I really have a hard time understanding you all... thats all.. Simple.. NO offence... If there is... Sorry... hehe... SMILE LA!!!!

Got to go pack my room now... Sick of it... Haix... Poly Orientation... maybe bored as usual... Please... God, or anyone... better make my life better for tomorrow... BETTER... >_<"

Fridays... To me, it's always a day that I can finally enjoy the weekends... A day that indicates to me that schooling week is over... temporary... Right now, I dont have any schooling so it's abit weird. Normally, I would be doing the things in work... Earning more money for my own usage... hehe... Who cares anyway... Right now, I better enjoy myself or else next week, school will be starting soon... My gosh!!! My orientation is 12th and 13th of April... However, I'm going for the 12th, not the 13th... Canbera has the Sports fest... Who doesnt want to go there and enjoy themeselves... hehe... See who would be the future sportsman or sportswomen... Think so... (The image of sports fest is fading... Poor memory of mine... haha...) As you can see, I'm getting old these days.. I keep forgetting the things I had done... Too bad... Try calling me old man the next time you all see me... (Just like what the mentoring kiddo told me... "Luckily I never call you Uncle... " Dotz...)

Yesterday was not my day.. At the beginning and at the end... What I mean by that... Alright... I explain the 'at the beginning' thingy... In the morning, I concentrate my composing and did it... quite well at least... hehe... All I could do was to play the stupid organ, with an half awake mind... Seriously, I like composing but my music skills while playing really cant make it. I maybe in the Band but the best instrument I could play is Tuba.. Nothing else... Weak Tuba player... want to be a professional composer... Well, who knows... Maybe I'm the weirdest guy in Canberra to do that... hehe... However, I hope to write out songs that could touch the hearts of people... That would be the piority of a composer, making people feel the beat and feel the story of the song... hehe...

Back to the crap, I was late in meeting Hong, Jimmy and Ariff... My planned time was to meet Hong at 1.15... Jimmy at 1.45... Ariff at 2pm... In the end... I was 'abit' late... I reach Hong's house at 1.45 to return the organ to him.... 2.05pm to meet Jimmy and 2.30pm to meet Ariff... Sharks... I run like a mad cow or something... From the bus-stop, I ran to Senopress in 5 to 10 mins... After that, I slowly walked back to the bus-stop. However, thanks to Fairus yanking... I manage to run to school in 5 mins from the bus-stop... The bus-stop... let me see... It's near the river... the drain next to the school... Haix... This is absolutely crazy... I gonna get thinner soon with all the running... Why? I have not eaten my breakfast on that day...

After I reached school, the Band members were outside the HEritage Hub, getting ready to look their mistakes through the tape... Haha... Anyway, it seems that they are quite better than before, except for the dressing... From 2.30 to 6 plus... It's Band, Breakfast, CS, chatting and soccer... That's it... One afternoon... That's how I spent it... Haha... Alright, now let me tell the next part of the story, 'At the end'...

Before the end of the day, Jeremy, Reeza, VJ and I wanted to have dinner together... However, it turned out to be nothing at all.. First, jeremy's Dad had bought something for him to eat, so he's not joining us for dinner... After meeting VJ and Reeza, VJ doesnt have the mood to eat.. so he went back home... After that, Reeza said that since there's only the two of us, must well we dont eat... Diao.... Alright, no choice, I just say yes... hehe... Crazy me... What a stupid answer.. Anyway, I just wander around the streets till 8pm beofre buying my dinner... I wanted to call Jonathan but I just dont want to disturb him... Maybe he's busy... the rest... Nah... Dont want to disturb them too... Then, the soccer match for both days are cancelled... Stress... What the.. No chocie but to buy some food and went back home to eat... What a day... All things happen in just 2 hours or so... Cant believe it but still have to believe it... No choice.. that's life... hehe...

Alright, stopping here... Hungry again... See you soon dudes...

Finally... I ended my job just a few days ago. It's time for me to say goodbye to Senopress after working for that company for nearly a month. In Senopress, I really met alot of friends... hehe... Not to forget my classmates too. They are the ones who brought me into that factory and helped me alot by giving me the basic knowledge of CD packaging. Well, at least I also met some new friends in the Bulk/Pack area... Ah Soon... Annie... Ah Kai... Fa Ge... Jonathan "Xiao Bao"... Ah Lam... Ah Zai... Han Wei... Jun Hua... Thanks people... You really make my life feel better in Senopress. While for Ah Lam... as ourhead... you did sometimes make my life feel much better but at times, you make everyone's life terrible.... Haha... Sorry to say that but it's true... Hope you take it too hard... hehe... Smile...

Since I have no jobs currently, I decided to pack my room for the next few days, as well as doing some arrangements in my computer and composing... Why??? First... My room... It's totally in a mess... A bed which is used for sleeping, is replaced as a place to put our clothes... Right now, the sight of clothes in my room really sucks.... Alright, nevermind with that... The computer table... It's mend to use the computer but it ended up with lots of stuff on the table... It's like using a computer in the office... What the... What's wrong with my room.. A store room at least... Dotz... I'm gonna pack the whole room one more time to make sure that it's not messy again... Haix...

NExt, my computer... The files are all around... I do not have the time to put the files correctly tothe correct folder... Which is which... Gosh!! I have not settle it yet. I must complete this bfore my Polytechnic starts... hehe... No choice... It's time forr Poly life and I need to wake up, be more matured and sensitive to issues that concern about me. Something like that... haha... Anyway... my last point... my composing... I have not compose anything for so long... I finally borrowed Hong's organ for a day... Yeah... I dont want to make his parents feel that I like to borrow people's things... That's why I borrow for a day... hehe...

Anyway, today I'm gonna work hard in my recordings... Hope its successful... I have not try it yet but I will make sure I will be able to record a song or two... Eric has been asking me to record the music as it sounds wonderful... The lyrics... not my voice... haha... Anyway.. Time to get busy now...
