past vs past
hmms, went back to fairfield today for past vs present games, i din end up playing, cos they all look like they've got it settled. the team ended up playing all the past students, didn't even see any present students on the field.
aly and i caught sight of a super cute girl. debating with alicia whether she's present or past, well if she's past, then she shud be at least 17, which is acceptable for me. else it'll make me a pedophile.. but she's so super cute, i guess that's the last time i'll see her then.. till the next past vs present. (shit! i shud have used my phone camera to take a snap of her.. hmm but wait im not that kind of person am i??)
alright gonna meet the fairfield people again.. long time since i spend time with them, catch up time!

more words than i had ever heard
its thursday already! (friday if you are anal about it) which means that my self declared holiday week is coming to an end. dont get me wrong, i still attend lectures, but in a switch off mode, well most ppl do it till before the exams anyway. its been quite mad since orientation, there's so much things to do in hall, not necessary chores, but going outs and stuffs, meetings and settling money stuffs.
kindda miss the folks back in church, long time since i saw them (ok 2 weeks is long for me k) been spending so much time with the freshies (but they are really great bunch of ppl, just played soccer with them just now, and i dont usually play soccer in hall lor, abit lost face, played so badly)
hmms, that also means i havent been doing qt that often too, well its bad i know, and i havent attend cell for like 2 mths?? (when i can , yuen cannot, when he can, i cannot). ok gotta re-consider my position ready. should get out of the hall more often.
and mypicgallery is still taking a damn long time to upload my melbourne photos, sorry folks i think u gotta wait till christmas before u can see em.

don't want to be at the bottom
well, thats really good advice really, especially when you are being tau pok. my chest still hurts from the tau pok i recieved during orientation when we got into a photo formation. i think if i saw the photos now, my face would be one of pure agony. alas, gotta go see the nice school doctor tmr.
tried to upload the melbourne pics on mypicgallery, but its taking darn long, dunno why oso, shud have stuck to a lower resolution for my pics.

end it, start it
finally, 6 days of orientation has passed, it's definitely alot more hard work being a chief group leader than being a freshie participating. but the camp was alot more fun than last year's i thought, more things to do, and also more tiring.
my freshies are great, very fun bunch, very siao on also, by the end of the camp i was totally in the back seat and they took all the initiative, which is super good. now to pass on the baton to next year's cgl.
the sian thing is, this year got no zhu rou to eat. usually every year each clan will win something, this year somehow pyrius like bao ka liao, abit frustrating and disgusting. where got clan so super on one, its like they chose all the right ppl. but nevermind i shall not sour grapes now since everything is over.
the bora bora beach bar boss is super friendly, gave us a free jug of beer and free potato chips too! must go support him more often! so glad everything is over ready, one whole year of sweat.. but abit bittersweet i guess..
ok lesson starts tmr, wah lau, 0830 somemore.. super sian ready . i think i juz really self fried myself by packing my mondays. i have 3 lectures in a row, then break 2 hr, then 3 tutorials in a row, then 2 hrs of minor.. such a great test for me. darn..

ok, camp has started, and im actually feeling quite off. i hope it doesnt show, else it'll really ruin the morale of everybody. i dunno, just feel a sudden wave of depression rushing over me... i cant seem to pin point it to anything, isit because i've not been feeding my soul some Word? but i think i am truly tired now. yupps, tired in every sense of the word, in the literal sense and also the metaphorical sense. 5 more days to go... darn.. grant me enthusiasm..
the freshies are actually great, they really warmed up very fast and are very enthusiastic. if you're wondering if there's any chio ppl or any potential personally, i don't think so.. they are just a great bunch of ppl, from day one lar..
yeah the best clan trophy is darn pressurising too.. i hate it when there's actually something to show for result, and sometimes just take the fun out of everything because everybody's caught up with winning. ok gotta remember its the bonds and not the winning..
one more thing, i hate it when the darn washing machine takes a whole damn hour to wash.. it means i cant sleep because i need to go collect my washing and the hang it.. i'm almost there, still got.. lets see.. 30 mins!

you and i
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
And taking your advice I'm looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing
But often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright lights turn to night
Until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
and others juz read of
Others only read of the love
the love that I love
See I'm all about them words
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards
More words then I had ever heard and I feel so alive
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And other's just read of
and if you could see me now
love love
you and i you and i
not so little you and i anymore
And with this silence brings a moral story
more importantly evolving is the glory of a boy
Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see now
well I'm already finally out of
and it's okay if you have go away
just remember the telephone works both ways
and if I never ever hear them ring
if nothing else I'll think the bells inside have finally found you someone else and that's okay
cause I'll remember everything you sang
you and I both loved what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see me now
well I'm already finally out of words.

greetings from melbourne
hey folks! firstly, gotta apologise, i think the previous post didn't load up on the day i intended it to which is on sunday just before i left, well actually blame blogger! ok now to make you jealous...
this is essentially our 4th day here ready, so almost half done with the trip. the weather down here has been super nice.. cold and all, natural air con (sorry abit swa ku) but at least it beats the super hot weather back in spore aint it?? nice and cold nice and cold nice and cold nice and cold.. u sweating back home, sweating back home sweating back home... shit, i think my fingers juz froze up. i think i'd have a miserable day today, i wore the wrong pants, this one doest keep me warm at all...
yesterday was real artsy for us, brian and i absorbed so much art that i think we'd had our dosage of art for the whole trip, maybe even whole life... yeah and went greco's with ruth. its some cake shop thingy, but u shud have seen the size of the cake, will show u photos when im back.
alright, will be planning a one day ski trip juz to soak up the experience. think we'd be snowboarding lar, hopefully we get the heck of it. however as our resources are running low, i don't think there'll be much souveneirs.. so ermmm i'll bring back star burst gummies and lotsa of clip on koala bears (the curse of the the clip on roos and koalas) yeah, and no promise on the bears too!
yo my homies: eh u all want fresh jive and mooks isit?? they have alot here lar, but i dunno if u all will like the design, so if you're reading this, sms me now to let me know if u still wan me to get for you, coz most of the things spore can find one, and its alot more expensive here to get it.(yeah gotta pay me back aussie rate one k, cept maybe for yuen, coz he drive me to airport =P, im so calculative aint i??). and if i do get for you, don't complain design not nice hor, coz probably all the nice one will be taken by me already anyway.. so muhahahahahaha, oh and the year of the monkey air force one's are going for below hundred here at nike melbourne, so it'll be about 115 sing dollars.. erm i shud be getting it oso lar, so dont bother .. hhaha
k sorry if this post makes u all juz wanna kill me, but u gotta wait for me to get back to do that dont u?? =P kidding! i still lurve u... take care folks, till my next update!

fresh start.. hopefully
ok gotta make this quick, am waiting for yuen to send me to the airport. anway, i juz entered the waters of baptism this morning. had a very strong spritual oppression when i was at the youth svc b4 that. but after the sermon by pastor dan at e3, i felt a silent prompting telling me "its going to be okay".. and i just went ahead to do it. many thanks for those who were there to "support" me, yep and even more thanx to those who gave gifts of encouragement, i really appreciate it, every one, even my the flower which im going to see for only 4 hrs =P. hmms, hence my advice is: if u wan prezzies, get baptised! ok that was just a lil joke there...
okie, yuen is late again =P but many thanx nevertheless .. hehe im looking forward to spar with my independent sidekick indie boy! whoo hoo, we're gonna have adventures of freezing our butts in the australian winter.. oh wells, anyways, if i don't get my hands on a computer, it'll be bye for the nxt 10 days...

fly me away on a malaysia plane..
i am super sick of painting banners, have been at it since monday, then wednesday, and now today, and we did it till like 330am?? and its not done!!! gonna get an expert to touch up and salvage the whole thing. but i seriously think the unicorn wasn't that bad. i think i have lost 5 layers of my palms by scrubbing them again and again in turpentine/thinner. but the upside is, thinner makes me high!
okie, foc seniors camp tmr, seriously no motivation at all, i just hoped to get it over and done with, and i can go back and pack my clothes and get ready for the fun on sunday.
Dear God, please grant me the strength to stay awake during baptism service.
got a ticket to ride to the australian tide...

i think the purple donkey has really jumped into the backside hair of the monkey...and the backside of a baboon does smell like fruit! thanks yuen for the enlightenment.. i am now wiser for having know that.
