Here's a little pic post which I do not so very often, almost rarely. Theres a video too lol.


Random clouds. They have some sort of a formation. Can see? Lol.


This is the transvestite from Mediacorp, Ms Abigail or something like that. It was a hair-raising experience. Lol.


As promised, this is the gift vase from Amplify. Nice eh?


And also as promised, the cute limited edition beijing olympics koala bear plush toy. So cute right.

My first video post. This was at causeway point a few days ago. There were playing some game thingy. I thought it was quite comical so I just took it.

On with the post, EOYs are round the corner. From now got 2 weeks more. A good sign is that I have started. A bad sign is that I have barely started. But, I got a plan. Lol, no its very simple. Drill. Mug. Whatever.

DMPs coming to an end. I really liked the cartooning one. The queer (not gay) teacher was really professional. He imparted a lot of simple stuff to us. His characteristic: he doesnt know. Lol, for example, he will tell you you must draw the legs tapered, or the eyes slighting droppy, but then he will rhetorically ask "Why? I dont know." and then he laughs in a weird manner. I learnt a lot of stuff since my drawing wasnt that good before. At least its better. The rest of the modules are all still ok la. Filmmakings a bit of a drag but its fine. The experience is good.

Damm Cikgu Nani just informed me that I have to take the test on thursday. And I still dont know what the hells going on. Filmmaking coincided with Malay, so I just ponned. And this is the result. A bad one. Lol its really stupid cause this week we are taking a test and 2 weeks later we are taking another, which is presumably almost the same.

Now its a mum post. Lol, so she cooked todays dinner. It was normal so I just added the scallop floss kind of flavoring to spice it up, which I do so every now and then. And then today she went bonkers. Lol, she was complaining to my dad but I think it was deliberately loud enough for me to hear. She said I didnt appreciate her cooking and it breaks her heart to see me add this extra flavoring after she spent 2 hours cooking. Im like wtf? I do it every now and then, she smiles happily, sometimes even takes some herself, and today she implodes. Lol, unfathomable. Shes rambling as we speak. Lol, she just cursed us to die from eating outside food. Gosh am I in the wrong? I vehemently object.

Its done. A post after 11 days of stoning. Accompanied with pictures. Yay. (Her rambling is getting to me...)

Has everyone started mugging yet? I havent. I just cant get the momentum going. And a lot of other stuff are cramming up my mind. Ive been so out of control for the past few days. I cant study. I cant do anything at all. I whiled away the empty DMP slots. Dammit, I have 10 or so empty slots man. So far 3 have passed. I really have to make use of the remaining 7. Ive been doing so much pointless, bad stuff, to make it very vague. Its time to stop.

Today I realised that my DMP timetable was screwed up. Actually everything was in order except that one of the modules, though was recorded as 12 hours, totalled up to only 6 hours in the timetable. Thats the gist of it. I told Jen Koh and Stephen overheard and I realised that I was using the retarded former timetable. As in it had been revised. Was that my error? Partially. But Im abit suprised that I ponned wednesdays lit lesson and nobody asked me or anything. Lol that proves I have suceeded in remaining a shadow, nameless and faceless. Well now Im transferred to Serene Seow class. Its gonna be okay I guess. Now I only have one day with one module, which I am seriously considering ponning. Have yet to decide.

Badminton today was fun. It was a shrank down 2F gathering. Then some "intruderes" came along. Its not that I dont like them but its just changes the atmosphere and stuff since I dont know them. Yeah yeah, then make a point to know them la. Oh well.

Moving on to lighter stuff, cartooning was fun. Very fun. Being the average (I wont say bad if not I will be an utter self-demoralising loser) draw-er I was, it really taught me a lot of stuff. The key is in the eyes... Our instructor is allegedly, according to him, the record holder for being the only Singaporean to head Walt Disney for 3 or 5 years. Cant remember the number. Lol thats cool. But he has laughing spasms. His laughs are very... unique.

Now for digital filmmaking. Today was more of a story telling session. Lol then I ended up with Zi Long in my group. Well he saved my eyebrow at Malaysian Montage and Im thankful to him for that. But I think hes gonna be a little bit hard to work with. But Im going in with an open-mind. Everythings gonna be fine. On that note, I need two people to stay back next thursday from 3.30 to 6.30 to be our actors. We are filmming on the theme bullying so there will be one bully and one victim. Ermm how do I put this across? Well Im just sincerely asking anyone who read this (RI of course), who can spare the time to help this poor soul, to help me play the two roles. You need not be good at acting. Its just like a mini project. I will be extremely thankful if someone does heed this call. Really, even if I dont show it. I think I might send some email on the 2F group soon. Somehow, the image of Elvis going "Wanna fight ar?" just keeps replaying it in my head. But if I ask him, he might just give me that reply. Lol but I will try.

Well this is a really long post. To end off, I will just report what I saw today. A couple, presumably from RJ, were like making out from mid-afternoon all the way to the evening. I wont deny I was curious. Lol but seriously, you can make out that long? WoW.

Wooooooo its DMP next week. Now like everyone else, im only partially happy about it, but more so of the relieved time time because of it. Lol, and trainings been halted like most of the other CCAs so thats even better. But the one damm thing is the sickening Chemistry Support S3. I have to go for it, which I dont mind going if its like between two other modules, but its the sole module on 3 out of the 16 days. NOooooooooooooo. That are many other possible reasons which I tried to use to persuade Jason Tan, but hes also under the dammed science boared, which came up with the retarded requirement of those who had to attend the support. I wont go into it cause it will take up the entire post. Well, I will try to be positive, although right now its very hard to see much positivity in it.

My exam on wednesday was just managable. I think I missed the distinction, otherwise I will just scrap it. Maybe around a merit? Screw la. My hand was spasming. Lol, no of course it was shaking. Grrr I I had wanted to carry on the distinction grade, but now its quite impossible. Well as usual, what can I do but just hope for the best. The results usually take about a month or so to process, so by then I can put myself at peace. And I could sing man. Lol, gladly that wasnt the weakest link this time around.

Yesterday was awesome. According to what I heard, amplifys just some higher level group, like the different levels of priesthood, or something like that. They do the same thing as us every week, but yesterday they transposed it up to a bigger scale. They call in Amplify In the City. It was in the NTUC building. Is that the name? The one near Raffles Mrt and overlooking the bay, which was used very appropriately later. The music was great la and the speaker was also quite good. Iskimos LOL. People went absolutely ecstatic, jumping till the whole auditorium trembled. Lol, really shake leh. And the best part was on top of being free (the singaporean mentality which was touched on by the speaker), they even gave a door gift. A lovely hand-painted vase. Aiya of course the small one la, but they really glass painted it. Imagine like hundreds of them. Wow. I think I will post a picture of it here, along with my sole picture if I do somehow get my hands on them.

Well thats a wrap. DMP, desperate mugging period. I cant remember the exact D but it can subsituted for a lot of other words. Lol, how true is that.

Camp Rock Rocks. Lol its pretty cool la. Theres the male and female classic relationship again and theres the music. Actually Disney Channels movies are quite good. I didnt watch High School Musical though. Oddly enough, I felt somehow distant from that one. And their movies always have morals. And they are very relevant. Teenage problems like fitting in and stuff. And and...

Tomorrow its back to school. Most probably its the return of the physics cct and lab practical. Okay that sounded really lame. Anyway I have wrestled with my mind already on my expected poor results so tomorrow wont be such a killer. Its really pathetic how I expend my energy on psychoing myself to be prepared for something bad rather than working on it for the next time round. Actually I do work on it la, but somehow the next time round just doesnt work out. Frustrating. Yes nicholas, you are pathetic. Still, just continue to do your bloody best and you will get bloodier results.

Yes, there is more to life than just studies. Yet right now, at this very juncture of my life and many others as well, that seems like everything. Well some are able to see beyond it while Im still struggling to. But if I could see beyond it, wouldnt it become less important, consequently leading to less effort put in? Again the topic of contradictory values or perceptions. Blah. Pointless rambling.

We Rock is nice. The rest are too. Grrr they all are. Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow. Lol I just realised how this quote fits in this afternoon. Procrastination. LOL.

I started giving my entries titles! But, they cant be seen. Lol unless i change the skin which would be quite timely. See how, I will try some random searches later. Certainly not PPG. Lol.

Well the holidays are coming to a close. I started my work early but still didnt accomplish what I wanted. I think goal setting really works. As in not those big fat dreams kind of thingies, just small targets. Cause most holidays my goal is to complete my homework and I rush last minute, this holiday my goal is to complete my homeowork & do early revision since my GPAs almost irrevocably low. So when my goal is a, i fail. When my goal is a + b, I achieve a but not b. Summary: I half whiled my time away. But I couldnt make it for class LAN. Nooooooooooooooo. I havent touched dota since the last time I did. Omg stitch. When I quit la.

Pet rocket is really the highlight of this entry. But its not a positive highlight, its like the most f*king thing that happened. Lol, no thanks to our teacher-in-charge, who shall not be named in the event that he randomly arrives here and hauls me to his office for this, for our "success". Gosh I love my low-class sarcasm. We spent the entire friday doing nothing but launching water-propelled plastic bottles using a broken, yes broken, rocket launcher. Like wtf, they want us to go for a competition and they are giving us bloody pathetic equipment. Ok, so we launched the rockets to the parapets of raja block a couple of times and today, the competition day itself, our rocket flew unmercilessly onto the the ledge of an inaccessble area of a building. In the end, we had to "borrow" (inverted cause technically, its not allowed) another RI groups rocket to launch. Still, it failed terribly. So thats a day and a half wasted doing absolutely nothing. Even stoning would have been better than getting worthless work done. And I still cant believe there are CCAs dedicated to this. Not in our school la. No offence to those in the CCA.

Ok, so heres paragraph 3. Today during dinner, me and my sisS were having dinner at the coffeshop. There was this old man sitting at the table beside us. He was alone and then suddenly, this woman comes, slams her hand on the table and starts screaming in the shrill female voice. My, it was untolerable. They bickered for like 15 mins around there. The old man was eating a bowl of noodles and they were like snatching the bowl of noodles. Lucky the bowl didnt go flying all over the place. It was soupy. Where is this going? I have no idea. Just saying how the way some elderly are treated is just not... right. Wait maybe it is going somewhere. Realising that my family is quite blessed. As in its not the best but its intact. Cause that woman was presumtively related to the old man.

Ok there was rather unorganised. Im going to search for some skins now. Shoosh.
