nationals are over and i'm glad everyone can look back on it now. regardless of how we've done, the years and months of training have paid off with the end of swim season 06. good job everybody. as the senior j2s who will be leaving soon, we salute all of you. special mention goes to the girls, for despite only having 4 members in the team, they still brought home 4th place. very commendable indeed.
train hard all of you and hopefully we can come down to support y'all next year. me yunjie and yinghui will find some way to book outta camp while zhuangyi and hweeming should be damn free to drop by haha.
oh and if any of yall wanna get some poser shoes, you know who to find to tag along with ya haha.

I was analysing the results for the swim this morning and i realised that the guys won't be able to get fourth this year liao. so sad!
but the possibility of getting fifth is still there. We are currently vying for the fifth position with CJC. if they mantain their positions that they got in their heats, they would get a total of 13 points. but if we mantain our positions, we would lose out to them. but there is still a possibility of winning them. that is ying hui and reuben must improve by a position in their finals. i seen the results, it is very possible.Reuben lags behind the next person by not even a sec and the same goes to Yinghui. The position of the medley relay can also be improved by a position too cos the difference is 0.7sec. if we all improve by one position, we will get 15 points and we will beat CJC and get fifth this year.
no big prize, consolation also can. so we need all the supporters we can get to bring up our fighting spirit. so guys, bring your friends down to toa payoh on tuesday and cheer your loudest for the team. the guys really need the support now. it's now or never.
But then different story for the girls. they just have to mantain their position and they will get fourth. but they still need your support, sio remember to cheer for them too...

11:30 PM;
haah count down to the heats. 3 more days. haha the pressure is building up and everyone is feeling it. today we had another training session for uncle thomas for him to learn his plunge but it was a no show again. he never turn up again. but reuben turned up so we could practise our medley and free style relay. it was quite enjoyable the entire training session.so thomas i hereby wish u gd luck for your race. wonder how u going to start your race without anyone reacting.
anyway the new official gossip in our team is that reuben likes someone in our team. those who turned up for today's training will know what i'm saying. he claims that they are at loggerheads but seems that his every action coincides with her. haah i think he will blushing the entire of next week.anyway reuben don't go after your eye candy already la. don't upset her. haha

just realised we abandoned this blog for a very long time already. haha the nationals are coming and suddenly i feel a lack of confidence. may be partly due to my inability to keep my goggles on after plunging. must put more practice into that tmr self training. might also be due to the fact that i took part in events that i shouldn't even have considered. the 1500 is a nightmare. don't eeven know how i am going to finish it within the time limit. die la. heck! just go there and struggle all the way.
today training was quite helpful. i managed to get the feel of a correct plunge. minus the goggles dropping off part.haha maybe it will work out before the nationals. haha **fingers kept crossed**
anyway this blog will be used as our update place for the nationals starting from next tuesday onwards. so followers of the swimming team, pls visit this blog often to get the lastest updates...

the last 2 weeks we managed a day of taining per week cos either we had otehr events or the teachers were not free.but the turnout was pathetic i can say. but nonetheless the training were quite effective. i can feel myself getting stronger. lol. haha. actually i think the training really very useful there 2 weeks. at least for me. coach concentrate so much on me that i wish i didn't choose 1500 liao.
anyway the past 2 days i been f***ed in my life. don't know why i keep getting scolded by peoplefor so reasons. Everything i do seems to be wrong. Arghh.. maybe from now on i'll be passive and do nothing. be a bystander and don't care about anything. then i'll won't be targetted. or maybe i haven't been going to the temple to pray... that's why...haha
anyway pls turn up for trainings everyone. we left 1 month liao. lets give it our all then it's over. 1month will pass very soon. we want to go prepared for the competition so that we won't lose that bad. haha. anywyay good luck studying for your ct during the june holidays and good luck for the nationals too.

hey guys so long nvr update this blog liao. i think our readers all sian diao already.... anyway back to the point, let's do an update on the team.
firstly, we had our napfa last sat and i'm quite proud to say that everyone did well in it. at least i felt so for myself. haha first time i ever pass my napfa since ...pri 6? hmm...i did not bad for this test. got d for standing board jump and 2.4 so have to work on them. the rest i got A!!! haha. so happy. pull up actually can do 10. to think last year i could only do 1.
anyway i think someone up there is seriously trying to prevent us from swimming as ying hui has mentioned. the team has gone without training for 2 weeks liao and still counting. today only zile, ying hui, zhuang yi, yew seng and jun cheng trained. haha funny most of the guys who trained have names starting with z and y except for juin cheng. anyway the rest of us took part in the sports meet event.haha, Daryl got 3rd for his high jump event while i got 6th for the shotput event without even qualifying. lol. it's also not suprising that the top 3 are from track and field....
talking about this, i have strong feelings about people who organise events and take part themselves in it. what's the point of organising an event for the school if you are better then others in it and win? where's the glory? it feels more like taking advantage of us. In my event, we have no prior exp in throwing a shotput and no one told us about the rules or anything. we just know all of a sudden that we got foul throws without actually knowing why so. hmm.. where's the fairness in this?
anyway, better not talk too much about tis. shouldn't be too occupied with it. just another comment that the track team organisation skills are really a bit bad. the papers wrote for us to come down at 4.45 and yet the event only starts at 5 plus. worse of all, they told shotput people to come down so early then wait until 6.30 for 3 throws? what the hell. total waste of time. no wonder the turonout rate was so low.
ok, so we are nearing the nationals. today we decided on the events we wanted to do. anyway i seriously considering taking up 1500m considering that even the last position by simply qualifying can earn a point for the team. that's like doing 50s a lap for 30 laps. hmm... worth considering. better than swimming 50m and not even getting into the finals. 1500 competition also less so higher proability of winning. hmm, anyone got opinion whether i should join?
anyway if i want to do 1500, i have to build up my stamina like siao. so the rest of the time leading up to the nationals will be spent running to train stamina. other than running, i don't know what can help. so anyone who knows how to train, pls tell me.
on a last note, good luck to the ips for their assesment week. hope u guys and gals can do well enough and not worry over your results over the nationals weeks. Jia You!

apparently someone up there is attempting to foil my every attempt to swim, and he has succeeded in the last 3 attempts, meaning i haven't swam this week AT ALL! even i can't believe it. On monday, had an ear infection, so i couldn't swim, and then wednesday came along with my NS medical check up.
Speaking of the check-up, i must say that it has some REALLY stupid things...for one, they make you take off your shirt and sit there for nearly an hour doing NOTHING, it seems that they want to toughen our immune system up for NS or something, maybe that's why i'm having a cold now... (and i slept kinda little these few days) and if that weren't bad enough, the non-medical testing takes even longer than the testing itself! i understand if you want to fight an intelligent war, but asking people physics questions!!? we're going to be soilders, not working in the DSTA!
And then came friday. Having expected 3 times a week training, i decided not to go for aristole, and stay in school to mug b4 training, but WTH, coach can't come coz he injured his knee, so training is cancelled. and to top things off, while mugging in the library, i suddenly ran out of motivation and couldn't mug at all...talk about suckiness...
well, now i have to mug over the stupid load of homework that i couldn't do on fri...*bleep* and how come no one told me about the outing on sunday, or did yj and hw just happen to watch the same movie on diff time?
confused and pissed,

damn it rained again today. funny that it rains every monday when we want to train. seems like god wants to give us a break. but the thing is.... i'm dismissed super early on monday. hmm.... another 3 hours wait for nothing again.
anyway pe today was quite fun. we ran up and did exercises on the slope leading to the parade square. in the end, the ache in my thighs were gone for a spilt sec b4 it came back right after the lesson. funny.

hmm... yesterday i watched tristan and isolde at plaza sing. so as usual the critic in me must point out some stupid things about the movie i watched.
firstly, why is it that the characters can have sex under any situation be it in a cave, forest or even under a bridge. and why are there so much sex going on in the movie. i felt as though i was watching a cat 3 movie. and the funny thing is despite all the sex, isolde never got pregnant. now that's funny, she like had sex with 2 men over a 100 times and yet no one fertilised her? hmm... now that's weird. now we know why the population in the middle ages were less then our modern population.
also the movie was super dramatised lor. the villian could kill a hundred of tristan's soldiers but can't even kill a puny tiny thin tristan. ok maybe i exaggerated, tristan was not puny at all, you should have seen his muscles and all but still compared to his enemy, he's really like wow!... small? haha but i guess this kind of things happen only in the movie. otherwise if tristan die then we got nothing to watch liao.anyway the movie had a sad ending according to hwee ming. she said the director shouldn't have let tristan die and the king should forgive the 2 for having a affair and let them marry and live in the kingdom happily ever after. haha must be inspirsed by too many korean and taiwanese drama liao
on a last note, we got a present for yew seng's birthday. it's seriously going to be one of it's kind that i also don't know how it's going to turn out like. the outlook going to depend on hwee ming's mood liao. haha if she happy then maybe it looks nice, if not..... then yew seng good luck to you! haha

hmmm.. recently coach a bit eccentric one. sometimes he pia us so much sometimes he a bit slack. for example this week's training yesterday he make us do so many sets of timing then today he so slack. today only do all the drills but then i still died today. mainly because i didn't have any thing in my stomach today. seriously i hate my thursday timetable. why my break after pe? who can eat after exercising???
anyway got back our pw results today, congrats to ying hui for getting band 1. anyway the rest of the team should have gotten band 2 if i'm not wrong. congrats ti us too. haha. band 2 quite good liao, don't be sad if u got band 2. think of those who got band 3....
anyway this weekend is a long holiday for us. yay!! finally get to rest. this whole week i been sleeping at 1am. seriously deprived of sleep liao. cannot focus on anything lor. run like a turtle. swim like a submarine then study like a lagger. so finally have a good rest to recharge and pia next week. anyway next week also quite slack. wednesday is speech day so go there to listen to speech only. so everyone rest well this weekend and perk yourself up for next week...
haha, anyway good job on the pub stunt guys. i guess now alan and thomas are super famous liao for their super gay acting of the merry go round. anyway lets hope that people will be joining us on monday. hope man. fingers crossed

Training started again this week after a 3 week rest. Along with the disappointments of the common test results, came the disappointments of feeling like a submarine on the first training. I really really felt like a submarine or whatever that is heavier than a submarine and sinks. All I remember was the 12 sets of freestyle under 50s, and I think the way Zhuang Yi did it, it looks like he was swimming leisurely. :( I was swimming my lungs out leh. Haha.. After that we still had to do endurance swim. But yeah! heaven was on our side, it started raining like mad and there was thunder and lightning, so we had to get out of the pool. I only did about 600m of it. Ha, yinghui did 800m already, serve him right for swimming so fast, spoil the market. Oh, must mention that wenci joined us for training that day, well guess guess who she messaged when she was on her way here. *hint hint: The one she had candle light dinner with during the team dinner at burger king* Alright no prize for guessing. Anyway its not as scandalous as it sounds. Don't go spreading around or one of them or maybe both will kill me.
Then the next training was yesterday. It wasn't that bad I didn't feel like a submarine anymore. But my legs felt like lead. Breaststroke kick with timings is BAD FOR HEALTH. Then we did some IM endurance swim. I still think 50m fly full stroke kills. The J1s did time trials the first time ever for training. Supposed to take down their timings but I forgot, the training log book only haf what the J2s did, must rmb to do it on Monday. After that we went to shell station. Linus ate this can of biscuits that had more fats than 2 packets of large fries from McDonalds, and it was a small can. But after I told him about it, he still continue eating it happily.. After that me, yew seng and linus walked to the mrt station, we missed our train and the next train was a 9 minutes wait. Well we decided to get a seat, so imagine 3 of us squeezing ourselves into the minute bench at the mrt station. I bet we looked comical to the other passengers at the platform. We just sat there and gossip until the train came, we squeezed ourselves onto the train and continue gossiping on the train :D Who said guys didn't like to gossip.

hey, so long never post liao. this page getting a bit stagnant. anyway to update those who reads this page, we had 2 coach training this wee. the first was on wednesday and it was a killer. we did time trials all the way until my arms cramped. hmmm... first time my arm ever cramped. goes to show how tiring the training was.then we had another training today. today was mostly drills with slacker timings so today was not as tiring as wednesday. anyway everyone should have gotten back your ct results. don't be sad if u done badly, i did badly too. we can work harder for the next ct and do better. lets work towards a better future!

Ok...to make for the super long time that i have not posted, i have decided to make a SUPER long post covering everything that happened to me this week, maybe a bit on CTs as well as my own version of hwee ming's 7 random facts thing...so...are you ready? *L1 + back + circle => spam circle* (those who played devil may cry 3 will understand this)
anyway, CTs was mixed for me. I felt Chem paper 1 (or whatever paper it is that isn't the mcq) was easier than what it was all hyped up to be, i guess all you had to is study...I have no idea whether i will live or die for econs, but i think the mcq is easy when many others think it is hard...physics mcq...AHHHH!!!!!!!!! that was the killer...probably harder than the chem mcq, and probably more punishing since each question is 2 marks. Maths...i'll probably break my straight A record and get a B this time, since the notorious NJ maths standard finally showed its face...as for GP, it has been covered in my previous post.
now on to what happened to me during this week...
Monday: monday was all fine and dandy, as although i had only 3 to 4 hours of sleep, i went for the wild rice play, so it was quite a hilarious start to enrichment week. then i went for the asia pacific breweries "marketing seminar"...apparently they seemed to have missed that point though... even the teacher in charge said that they had to feedback to asia pacific breweries to make sure that the next few sessions were actually focused on marketing rather than a factory tour. furthermore, they were doing cleaning, so we didn't see much of the factory anyway. nonetheless, some of the machinery they used was quite interesting. then came the next fakie activity: middle eastern food. the chef may be a egyptian trained tunisian, but the only real middle eastern food that was served was the humus and smoked eggplant...but since it was a buffet, and the food was actually quite good, we still had fun stuffing ourselves =p
Tuesday: the only activity i had today was the Shatec fine dining course. I learnt a lot from this one, and there are really a whole bunch of etiquette stuff to take note of...no wonder they have to pay the british royal family...considering how tough it is to eat, i'd rather not be part of any royal family...anyway, after all the lessons, we had a HUGE lunch, which i think is the cause of a whole chain of events to come =(
Wednesday: this was definitely the worst day of the week.woke up and could barely eat a bite, which is a sign of bad things to come, as i could eat 2 eggs, 2 pieces of bread and a cup of milk when i was in sec 4...anyway, not wanting to miss archery, i went to school, and threw up (1st time). not wanting to miss archery, i just had a bit of ribena and went for archery. thankfully archery turned out to be quite fun, so it was worth it. wanting to stay for the university talks, i stayed on in school, only to find myself becoming more and more nauseous (how on earth do you spell this word anyway??) despite sleeping almost 3 hours. after that, i tried to have lunch, which was a disaster. after having a few spoons of porridge, i realised i was going to hurl again, so i desperately tried to make my way to the guys toilet...and in the end, they had to place a 'caution: wet floor' sign on the canteen floor (go figure) (2nd time).
knowing that i couldn't force myself any longer, i got a blue slip and went to see a doc, who told me it could have been gastric triggered by food poisoning (thus the shatec meal may have had a part to play, though i think the middle eastern food also had a part to contribute). so i went home, had my medicine, and spent the rest of the day sleeping away. (since i was too nauseous to do anything) apparently i also caught a fever, but don't ask me how, i'm still trying to clear my head. i woke up for dinner, which was really bad, coz i had to wait 2 minutes between each spoonful of porridge, and everything still came up in the end (3rd time).
Thursday: thursday finally came, and i found that only liquid food seemd to go down my mouth, which would later deprive me of a nice dinner =( i went to the tea apprectiation course in the afternoon, which was pretty ok, and wrote chinese for the first time in 3 months, leaving me in a temporary "speak chinese only" mode, and my hand feeling very weird ...
Today: finally a good day. the dance wasn't very good IMO, our school western dance has better coordination, but kudos to them for coming up with a dance version of the wizard of oz. archery was almost perfect though, as i got a nearly perfect score (missed by 3 points out of 90). my team did very well too, so we ended up first in the archery mini-competition. anyway, i went home and then went to go interview some person in the institute of policy studies. the interview was ok, but the place is DAMMMM nice...*drool* it's one of the newer blocks in NUS, and the whole place looks like some super modern resort, and it's got a really nice view too. i now suddenly wanna go to NUS...urgh...must stop being so fickle...
now, on to the seven 7 random things...

- deep sea / murky water, i won't dare step in unless i have no choice, meaning that i really don't like swimming in singapore's sea...
- sad endings...(lets just say that i don't really like feeling sad)

haha, today damn suay. it started raining at 3pm-- the time we wanted to meet for our training. we wanted to rehearse for our pub stunt today but due to low attendance rates, we postponed it to tml. hoped everyone turns up, otherwise another day wasted. anyway i wennt with daryl to far east and cut our hair. haha daryl pok liao. he see shoes but cannot buy. serve him right. supposed to cut his hair a few days ago, he used the $ to go buy shirt. haha. anyway we still went to see shoes today. old habits don't die they say. so we walked around heerens, paragon, taka and far east today. anyway i still went to swim today. but then the water so cold i gave up after an hour. gotta get a new goggles too. mine fogged up after a lap then cannot see the end of the pool. ended up crashing all the time.So, i going to get new goggles soon.interested sponsers can contact me to give me a new pair.( i won't mind, haha)

haha it takes ages for my 2nd post to come, which explains hwee ming's doubt. sorry guys I've always been reading every post but u noe I m too slack to move my fingers so...I dun mind to be called " lazybones" becoz I am haha.
while I was typing this entry my arms are aching like hell, all thanx to yesterday's adventure education thing. I was hanging desperately to strings with my feet clinging to some stupid tyres to get across a distance of 20m at somewhere like 3 to 4 storey high. The string is so bloody sweaty(cuz pple b4 me) and I was experiencing thrills originating from acrophobia. but finally I, being one of the very few, completed the station. There were other interesting stations as well, like standing on the top of the pole of 10 m high and jump! There was 1 girl scared to jump who stood there for 50 mins and finally fell off the pole!
Today I joyfully skipped the uni talk cuz hav sttended the same kind of uni talk for numerous times arranged by moe and was extremely bored.
Planning to hav a trng today but it looks like it's gonna rain. O I just heard a thunder. The rain saves me coz I am worrying abt how to go for tonite's karate after today's trng if my body is in this condition. Daryl calls me fr the grandstand. gtg. sorry guys I could hav written a longer entry. --Zhuang Yi
2:43 PM;
hey guys it's me again and again.haha, wonder why i keep posting. anyway i came here to talk about a few things.
firstly, just realised quite a lot of my friends and classmates actually knows about our blog. or rather they thought that it's my blog since the recent entries were all under me. so people start blogging soon hor. on the other side, if u post something on this blog, remember that people are coming to see it so try not to suan anyone here cos u don't know who will come here and read it.
secondly, with the whole election thing buzzing up, i feel like i have to say something about it although i can't vote yet. what's up with the pap introducing all their new candidates with all the mdeia coverage and hype when nomination day haven't even been announced? typical kiasu singaporeans we have for our goverment. trying to get attention even b4 the things starts. anyway why the opposition parties don't get as much media coverage about their candidates.seriously i don't even know who the oppositions are in singapore already. and why is it my parents never get to vote!! we never ever get to vote here since it's considered a pap stonghold. lol i think the mps here are the same as those when i was born. no change at all.
anyway wondered how your enrichment week went? i only went through my archery class as of today. but the rest of my programme i find very sian. all the things i signed up for i don't like one.now, this is bad. the interest is not there but i must participate for the sake of the hours. i don't feel enriched at all. anyway how do u get enriched with all the activities and things that seems so useless?
haha i just read hwee mings's post before i logged in and type this entry. quite interesting. actually got to know her better. i was particularly interested in one section......haha anyway i think it's good that u post sych things online so people know more about u and get to interact with u better. now lets be the ideal person in hwee ming's view. haha
anyway tml we doing the pub stunt rehearsal. i'm reading it now. thinks it quite lame now. haha but then lame things attract people. seriously would u remember a solemn message batter than a catchy message brought about ny lame people with lame script and lame actions? but let's not be too lame here. haha. we also training tml, hope to train xtra hard from now on. must improve my timing to below 30secs b4 nationals. the pressure on me now. haha so must do something. i'm been going to the gym to lift weights to train up. hope i can achieve my target. anyway on a happier note, i improved my pull-ups from 2 last year to 7 today. so happy. never once thought i could actually do pull-ups.ok, maybe in my dreams where i felt like a feather and could do up to 100. what a wierd dream! and a bigger sense of achievement is that i have successfully cut my weight down to 75kg. 0.6kg more to acceptable wight range. must train for stamina, speed and hot bods. haha anyway hope u guys have fun and cya in my next post

yersterday was another coach training.i shoudln't have swam in the morning.i thought it was short and intensive again like monday so i thought can warm-up a bit first then i swam 1.3k first.but then the warm-up was super tiring. 4 X 400m reverse medley swim. daryl and i almost drowned. the arms keep on tightening then cannot swim properly so we keep on streching our arms, then it seems like we were slacking. haha. anyway after that we did 8X50m pull with 1 arm in front. that was the climax for the arm man.after about 25m, the arm has no strength to pull liao. then after that daryl and i had timing for 4 sets of 50m breaststroke. kao, coach always make me do my weak style. but at least i made it within the timing despite the cramping arm.daryl made it too,so cheers to us.And also cheers to the rest for making it through training.
Then i went home and typed out the script with Daryl over the phone. We were like so sleepy and goggy that i can't even remember what i typed. anyway i sent a copy to everyone's e-mail so go and take a look at it. i think it's kinda crap but should be quite a impact with all the shark and thing. anyway, the roles are not filled so anyone interested can approach me or Daryl to indicate your preference or we will choose...muhahaha

haha today we had two distingushed guests in joining us for training namely wanda and aley. it was quite fun today with all the time trial we had to do, only thing i hate is the bloody sun. it kept shining into my eyes then i got dizzy and couldn't even use strength or even swim straight. anyway we came to a conclusion today for something. blue trunks attracts horny man, white and purple trunks attract hornny gays while red trunks attract horny girls haha. we took the cue from the chinese drama show where shan yao dong did a strip tease in red trunks in front of aunties. haha wanda, if u are wondering what's the name we gave u...it's mentioned above. haha. cos u got excited while coming into the pool when i emerged from the teaching pool in my red trunks so we concluded that the red trunks makes u horny. haha
anyway, we did 400m warm-up, 8 sets of 50m free-style kicking and breast-stroke pull and rest time 30secs , 3 sets of 200m pulling with the last one being a time trial and medly relay where all of us did all the strokes. haha i sucked at backstroke and breast stroke. the fly also cannot make it, 25m and i sunk. then free-style don't need to say liao. at the end panting like siao.somemore wanda and aley did the dolphin curvy thing while doing the breast stroke pull, free-style kick thing then like so relax. i and zhuang yi look liao almost want to cry. wa lao come spoil market.later got inflation not good for economy.haha. anyway we lost to the girls by 49m for the medly relay thing.must emphasise IT'S 49m, not 50 m haha.anyway on a side note, hwee ming don't be sad la, u can make it for nationals one. just train more then will become better liao. jia you!the team is always supporting u.
then after that we took a team photo and some snap photos of ourselves with our phone camera. then we went our seperate ways at the mrt station after not being able to decide on our dining place. so in the end, wei ping, zhuang yi and i went tiong bahru plaza for dinner and i watched them eat chicken chop and some beef rice thing. wa lao drinks there so ex.2 cans only cost 2.80. my god, i'm broke liao.
ps: i realised zhuang yi's and hweeming's eyes are closed, haha so cute. BB!

GP CT1 2006...AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! this is the hardest compre i've EVER done...being one of the few who barely understand the Tamil/Ancient Greek/Korean/Mayan/King Kong language that the passage was written in, i still don't have half an idea how to answer the questions, especially that bloody #$&*ing good for nothing son of !@*$% 10 mark summary... T_T As you can see, i have used words that are present in most teenagers vocab, so i wonder why teachers complain that our vocabulary is not diverse enough...
well, back to swimming. strange thing is, i think coach is planning something dreadful for me, coz while everyone was training their butts off on wednesday, i did much, much less than them. i had a couple of 100m free pull time trials (actually it was more like time control, he told me not to go under a certain timing), but that was slack compared to what the rest had to do...poor Hwee Ming, she piaed all the way when coach wanted her to slack...according to Coach, at the rate she's going, she's gonna become Wanda *thinks of tanned Hwee Ming talking with Wanda's voice*... Yeesh...not a nice idea...nah joking only lah. Well, if she were to become another wanda, that would be good for the girls' team, so i guess i shouldn't complain.
By the way, wat's up with the BrokeBack/Road Runner thing anyway????? i'm absolutely lost...though i always am when it comes to these kinda things though, so this doen't come as a surprise =p . The bad thing is, it seems to have some kind of relation to me...T_T
I wonder if it's gonna become the next GG...ya right...GG lah...

fd3 is entertaining! seriously. it brings out the sick and twisted nature in us as we watch the unfortunate victims die one-by-one in the most imaginative and hilarious ways. just don't watch it before/after/during eating food haha.
oh and gp was not fun. it never is. but i guess the school's just out to get us all. so cheer up guys, if one die, then all die. hmm..not too inspiring huh? nevermind =p just keep our spirits up and enjoy the hols..
~daryl
10:55 PM;
Due to low gp standards after pondering for a very long time I still cannot decided should it be muscles fatigue or fatigue muscles. Anyway u get the meaning there. I think coach is going crazy by making us do so many time trials. Although the team is getting lazier by cancelling more and more trainings but there is no need to build it all back in one training. 8 sets of time trials is just so unacceptable. And while Daryl and Yun Jie get to do breaststroke I haf to do fly?!?! (Worst i listened wrongly, thought 8 sets all out, sorrie Daryl and yun jie I spoilt the market, my own fault) Okie enough of complaining. I think I shouldnt be complaining since Zhuang Yi did 6 sets of fly.. haha.
Oh, talking about Zhuang Yi i must mention that Zhuang Yi got a pair of super low hanging and 'body' hugging trunks and they are white. *haha, i can hear his fan club screaming alr* We were taking photos for the annual college *so start saving to get the college annual* and he was wearing this. So after that we had to retake the pic becos we decided that it was too obscene to take a pic in that, we retook with Zhuang Yi standing a the back. i think its ok to wear like that in the pool but not get up from the pool. haha.. Well, someone made a big deal out of it though. i guess he was getting interested or whatever. maybe he was just pure jealous. But since he is BB it should be the first possibility.
Then today, suppose to have training but once again it has been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. because today j2s had GP exams and the J1s were let off at 12.30.. Talking about Gp exams, the comprehension was clearly a tamil passage because I couldn't understand a single word of it. Summary I feel as if I have just translated a tamil passage to English. i literally translated word for word. LOL. I think Gp die. To think i was still glad that what I studied came out for the essay paper.
Hmm, having a hard time fixing Monday's training because i think alot of people have something on and all that. But i feel like training. Very paranoid about the MGS invitational. The IPs are like the reigning champions and later I swim in the team then we lose. I die arh. No matter how fast they are, add me into the team and they become not fast. Die, black sheep of the team. Wanted to ask if anyone wants to go for team outing, but come to think of it, I think i quite desperate for common test already. With that kind of GP standards I guess I have to brace myself for the following common test.
9:55 PM;
haha, how many ppple watched final destination 3 already? my advice is don't watch on a full stomach.everything will confirm come out. let me tell u why. firstly u see 2 girls naked( that's why nc16) being burned to death. literally being burned in a tan machine. then u see a guy's head being smashed then it blows up in your face. then u see a guy die at the gym machine when the weights clamp on his head( makes me feel like ponning gym training liao). and then u see a girl being nailed in the head with a nail gun. she died with a lot of nails through her face. then u see a guy being smashed to bits and pieces by a post. then u see a guy die in a train accident when the glass window broke and his head cut off by it. All this with blood and gore. i comfirm u won't have space for dinner. haha
anyway on a lighter note, gp exam just finished today. i think i cannot make it liao. the exam so difficult la. at the end of it, i still don't understand the passage.screw liao la. nvm then i pia for the rest of my subjects then can make up for it liao. anyway it's just common test, there's more to work towards..haha

Friday, March 03, 2006
Today the postings for the J1s came out. Danny and Edwin couldn't stay, tried to help them appeal by looking for Ms Aw. But it feels like we were rejected in our face. The first thing she said was she wants CLUB SWIMMER!! *I am not against club swimmers, but from someone who withdrew from 100m fly during nationals, we can see that CLUB SWIMMERS does not guarantee standard* (Although the other club people are very good swimmers, don't come and scold me kz) I nitially Ms Aw still say will hold time trial for them, then I thought there might be hope as long as they are fast enough, then once they heard that Danny and Edwin not from CLUB, they just pointedly refused our appeals!?!?! They didnt even see or asked how good they were. Rest of the day past in a sad sad mood, had reallie hoped that the whole team would be intact after the postings... :( :( :( Grrr... No more GG-ing in the team, haha, gonna miss them..
1 month of trainings together, then realise the team outing tomorrow might be the last time we will see them... Must take pictures tmr!
Besides that no major events this week. We trained as usual, but now that there is coach on Wednesday, i could actually feel the team slacking on Mondays to conserve for Wednesday. Haha. i guess that should be the case becos this Wed was terrible we had to do time trials for so many sets. Haha. Zhuang Yi spoiled the market and all of us swam like 20s faster than the time we were given, and it was 3 sets not one. Others had to do time trials too, but i duno what issit :p

I think land training on Fri was the first ever training that I felt was reallie training. Quite proud of the accumulative 250 pull-ups/incline pull ups we did! :) Danny's fren join us for training, says he will join if he still in nj after the JAE results, ok then i hope he gets in. Ha. Yew Seng's gf join us for training too!! *haha, dun come and kill me, but u 2 look like couple* ( Very cuite together!) She got nice personality, abit like Jin. But she's in softball :( *haha, Edwin said I was desperate to get gers in* Actaully I don't deny it. i hate training alone. :( We did circuit, gym work, abit of running and also standing broad jump. Most fruitful land training we ever had :D
We got chased out of the gym halfway through our training though. Because we have no teacher in charge :( I mean we only haf one official training each week and thats the pool training, how are we suppose to get a tcher in charge to come and 'supervise' us :( I think its unfair. How come we dun get dedicated teachers. Actually Ms Aw is trying to get closer to us cos she actually suggested last time that she wants to join us for training. So u people know who I am talking about thats is SLACKING.. =p
Well, the same tcher cos us to withdraw out of the biathlon. Because they decided that we cannot go for the biathlon under the school's name and therefore we have to go for the swimming trials. But the trial is already over when our dearest SLACk tcher-in-charge told me that we cannot participate. Well there goes another chance to prove the team. Reallie dun like her :p
On a happier note, i saw my eye candy during training! Motivation for training. haha..
11:44 PM;
i think i am cursed with scoldings one lor. yesterday during GP lessons, my GP teacher went siao. really damn siao.i think he pms lor. all of a sudden just flare up. then walk out of the classroom. later the girls chased after him and then managed to get him back. then he said he was pissed with our class cos we were always late and go to toilet after putting our bag in the class. cannot make it la. i mean even lectures have 10 mins allowance for students to come in la and we were 5 mins late for his lesson and he bu shuang then what can we do? teachers don't ever let us off b4 time's up or even on time and they expect us to be on time. man... they never go for lunch at lunchtime one is it? it's so crowded at the canteen that you often only have 5 mins left to gobble your food after u bought them and that after having to rush to a classroom that's like so god damn far away from the canteen.he think we what? superman ar? then hor if u don't even have time to eat where got time to toilet.lol! teachers man... never think one then still come and teach. then he threatened us that he will do something worse the next time we do that again. i guessed that it might happen again cos his request is quite difficult to achieve one lor.
anyway, after that.we had training and did pull-ups and gym. then we saw our soccer team allow 2 goals in from cjc. after that i went with danny and his friend andy who might be joining swimming to far east where we had a hair cut. After that i went home. then i got another round of scolding. this time from my father. he say that he don't like me going to orchard in my uniform to cut my hair. what's his fucking problem man? it's not as if i'm the only one walking around orchard in my uniform. i saw so many students there la. somemore i just went there to have a haircut and not to watch a movie or play. Fuck man i 'm damn pissed.not only do i get scoldings when i go out on saturdays or sundays, now i even get scoldings for going for a haircut? what's is this fucking world coming to?

Ar...today damn suay. i got scolded for no reason. i went early today to move our stuff from the old cupboard to the new cupboard. then i was told to move them to the cupboard besides softball which i did and later found out that it belongs to soccer. turns out that softball haven't move to their new location and we were supposed to move our whole cupboard to the new location too. then i got scolded by miss ho for no reason la for taking up her cupboard. how was i to know la. the cupboard was so wide open and empty.... make me sweat for nothing then in the end move back all our stuff to our old cupboard.
anyway today pe i was quite happy lor. we did pull-ups today then i managed to do 4 which is a D. haah can get silver liao. then during free games i managed to get a goal in with my fake. overnight i became a MVP (my classmates say most valuable pig). haha didn't know i was talented with soccer. so the pe lesson kind of off set my bad feelings from the morning. ironically, my pe teacher was miss ho....

Today as usual we met at the grandstand for training. But something different today was that all the J2s were in a super bad mood. First we had to queue for 2 hours for alot of things (that were suppose to benefit us) which we might not get. Like what coach said, it feels like afer reading an advertisement on the papers we rush to get some free gifts, but after queueing for 2 hours we realise that there were no more free gifts left :( That left all the J2s pissed and tired out. Throughout the journey to the pool we mainly complained to one another about what happened and comparing our "free gifts" :(
When we reached we found out that coach is already there and waiting for us, so we were considered late. poor Zhuang Yi got scolded by coach for being late. poor thing, I think it reallie wasn't his fault. Then training.
Once again coach prove that he is reallie effective. Today we warmed up as usual, then the real torture begin. *please ignore the following paragraph if you are not in the mood to listen to me whine about training* Well I had to do pulling *pulls long face* Alright pulling, he made me do 200m non-stop which meant i had to somersault and go. whats worse I had to do 3 sets of that. But tht wasn't the WORST yet. I had to do the torturous 1 pull, 1 kick!!!!!!!!! *pulls a reallie reallie long face* The fly kick was no help at all, it merely helped to keep the body afloat. i had to use arm strength for breaststroke all the way :( Lucky Daryl and Zhuang Yi got to do breaststroke double pull double kick.. Unfair treatment. :( *End of whining*
After that we did time trial, quite happy today. My timing went down by 1s and we did 2 sets of timing :) What coach made me do is effective afterall. Haha. *I contradicted myself* Then he taught us how to train for biathlon. i guess we are going to try that out on Friday. We went to the petrol station to enjoy our after swim meal and discussed training. Just realised that there are many people who end very early too! Yeah!! *No need to sit alone in the library for 4 hours* So we decided to meet at 1pm and do gym before running. :)
Small update on Monday *specially written for Yixin* :)
Monday there was no coach so we went back to our slacker ways and talked more than we swam. Haha. I didn't even hit 2km I think. I was so lazy that I didn't even bother to do cool down. highlights of the day was the time trial. hweeming being the team manager manage to weasel out of doing time trial and instead be the person to time them. haha. Well the juniors actually do have alot of potentials!!! They all quite fast! :) Wah I think our team got hope for the guys this year. Coach say if Danny doesn't pon, he can hit 29 by nationals. Thats very fast! Woah.. Haha... very impressed. Oh yah, yixin darling, wenci says she has got a job recommendation for you :) Come join for training soon, you are missing all the fun. *Actually not very fun, but come and pei wo train* Haha.. i very honest one.

This is the 1st time i ever blog and it seems to be a cool experience.LOL. Anyway, i just wanna say that the swimming team is very cool. i Believe that Yewseng was right about the ONLY reason why HE chose NJC over JJC (quotes) "Honestly, the only reason im staying is because of swimming," said yewseng. i think all the J1s and J2s(altho i dont really know well) have unique personalities. The group is relatively small and powerful in my opinion. Luckily i listened to Thomas advice to go for the Swimming 1st meeting just to "see see". All in all, swimming pwns all. Let trainings be a lil tougher to please Yewseng. ;) (lemme touch up on the template abit)

Too innocent to accept fear
Too green to imagine failure
If all you have got is courage and desire
I have a place for that kind of passion

road run was on friday and it was quite fun haha. i was aiming for top 50, but didn't know if I could pull it off cos i would have to beat the canoeing and soccer people who are quite good. well it went alright for me at the beginning, was running with zhuang yi for awhile, but after i overtook him i couldn't see him anymore =p anyway after the extra 600m loop for the guys i ran past linus thomas and danny. either that means i was damn fast or they were slow. i think its a combination of the two reasons haha. after the run i met the juniors and they were damn excited to hear that i got 22nd, a big leap from being unranked last year. hope i inspired them enough to train hard and also get a placing for next year haha. zhuang yi got 29th place so its quite good that there are 2 swimmers in the top 30, we actually beat quite a number of canoeing and soccer folks haha.

Crap this week i totally feel like CRAP. firstly i hit Hwee Ming during training and caused her to injure her hand. I'm so sorry Hwee Ming. Please forgive me ok? i really felt very bad that night and days after, i still can't sleep well at night...
anyway today i also felt like shit. 2 tuition teachers came to my houser. what happened was that my 1st teacher was sick in china and couldn't come back to singapore so my mom got the agent to send another teacher here. then don't know by luck or just damn suay, the 1st teacher came back and my mom contected the agent to cancel the 2nd teacher. Crap bet the agent didn't contect her cos 2 of them turned up. worse of all, 2 of them are friends. ar.... i never felt so embarrased in my life b4.. in the end they called the agent and the 2nd teacher left. ar i feel so bad......

i'm back for another post! =p
weird stuff is happening...the swim team is turning into a biatholon team...it will at the rate we are signing up for events, and for some strange reason, a large proportion of the J2s seem to be hding something from me...must get to the cause of it soon b4 i get stressed out...
Anyway, Coach is BACK!!! finally we can get some proper instruction. strange thing is, although i did less than i did on monday, i feel 5 X more tired...probably coz we trained 5 X faster than we usually do. Still, had quite some fun, coz i finally feel like i did some proper exercise.
By the way, according to my aunt, who is a phsyiotherapist (sp?) (the one who treats sprains and broken bones and torn ligaments etc), the vertical marathon is VERY bad for the knees, especially those with knee problems, so she was advising me not to join. So, i think it may not be a good idea to join...better to do the 10km one instead.
hmm...gay also applies to girls as well u know...so have fun with your 'darling'...but don't forget your water pouring, make noising and secretary duties hor...=p
And, Yun Jie, 人家伤到手了...你还是最好立刻道歉吧...

PS: this is what happens when stuff gets too weird...u get stressed out and start writing in chinese...T_T

I am writing this entry for YiXin to entertain her cause she says we very seldom update. Haha.
Wednesday i thought everyone ends at the same time, but apprantly I was wrong and I guess I should have been more patient. I could have past time watching my eye candy play basketball, walk around the sch compound, visit the toilet or even eat in the canteen.. *maybe eating in the canteen is not a good idea, will get fat* (Me and Yi Xin suppose to cut 5kg by MAy or April I forgot but until now, now a single gram has been cut :p) Anyway the idea was I could just have waited quietly instead of complaining all the time, I think its very annoying. Haha, I am sorrie Daryl I guess most of the time when I was complaining You had to bear with me. Then because I was so impatient, I messaged alot of people, *My sms is already over the no. of free sms by like 300*, and 2 minutes after I messaged them, they turned up. So i guess I have learnt my lesson to be more patient in the future. Sorrie to all the people I have harrassed with my constant complainings while we were waiting. haha..
As if that wasn't enough we had to run for bus when we were only halfway out of the sch. *oh did I say run, I mean sprint!!* Then when we reached the pool, we were faced with a super unfriendly lifeguard :( *Everyone there is always friendly and helpful except him :p* Dun tell anyone I said that. Then when we were doing warm up YiXin gave me a pleasant suprise, she turned up for training!!! Yay!! *Grins at yiXin* Haha, then another suprise, Ling Ee came too !!! Yeah! *Grins at Ling Ee* haha...
So, we finally got coach back. Though we were more than happy to have coach back but the training that follwed it was horrendous. Normally we would complete a 2k swim in like 2 to 2 and a half hours but on Wednesday we actually completed 2.2k in like 1 and a half hours. Alright we did 400m warm up, 200m pulling, 300m backstroke, 400m single arm fly, 200m pull, 200m breaststroke, 200 aingle arm back and 200m single single double arm fly. Worst of all Yinghui Zhuang Yi and me have to do time trial, luckily it was only for 50m. But it was bad enough anyway :( Hmm, so sad when I heard the timing, I was so slow.. like 25m into the time trial my left hand was already like trembling because of the pain. I was practically swimming with my right hand and legs only. *Though my left hand very weak, I would have felt much better if it wasn't painful* Haha, during training something embarassing happened, luckily only yixin saw it, I duno why I started crying, haha, sorrie yixin, I must have been scary.
Enough of training, Yi xin had to go halfway thru training, well post vday date.. Awww... So nice rite.. Haha..
Just realised i wrote a very detailed entry for treaining on Wednesday, yet I left out what I felt most about, haha.. *secret, cannot tell you one* but my YiXin darling knows... haha.. Eeee.. That sounds quite gay.. (Gay=Happy, joy... What were you thinking)

hey, firstly i want to say that i'm innocent ok? Edwin and me not really that similar. I can't even finish a double whopper now. haha, Yinghui took half of mine after eating his own burger. Edwin and Yew Seng on the other hand can finish a double whooper complete with an upsized drink and fries...
haha, on a second note, Hwee Ming doesn't know whats a boomerang. haha. It 
looks like this lor. It's an austrlian nomadic weapon if i am not wrong. anyway, it's funny that she doesn't know. haha. ya. so how do i know? Yesterday i went orchard to get my paint for my gifts to my Ip06 (anyway glass paint costs a lot man, one bottle cost $5) then i also went to get valentine's gift.(Daryl pang sen me la, otherwiswe got on friday liao), then i was commenting to Hwee Ming about how the cover of the item i got looked like, then she told me she didn't understand what it was. funny though, i thought they teach this kind of thing in primary school? haha, must be u pon primary school is it, hwee ming?

It has been so long since anyone updated. I shall update about training last week. The juniors started coming for pool trainings with us. Due to the multiplier effect, 2 juniors became 5 and I think more are multiplying out. We didn't really train hard last week. It was ok, the most we hit was like only 2km, half of what we did during the Dec holidays. But Zhuang Yi suggestion that I do breaststroke pull with fly kick almost made me drown in the pool that training. Besides that I think the juniors were all quite good, they were generally fit. They actually did the same distance as us during trainings. On Wednesday we had our first team dinner. Wen ci came with us too, but sat at the back with Daryl for candlelight dinner together. The rest of us split ourselves between 2 tables and settled down for dinner. I have to say yunjie found his successor in Edwin. *No offence there, not a personal attck, just a passing comment* They ate more than the calories they swam off during training. Haha. Then we wanted to go home, once again wenci and Daryl decided to leave us behind and sit car go home together =p A few guys stayed back for men's talk and the rest went home *On bus* =(
The training on Friday was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances *such as rain, sudden sickness, sudden uncontactable'ness' and sudden loss of interest in training* =p Well I went to but shoes, so I guess I fall under the category of sudden loss of interest in training. Haha, but I was so happy when i was going home, I bought ds-trainer XI. Haha, the purple one, no one has it yet. =) Oh must mention that I saw my canoe eye candy shopping there with his friend *same shop* for shoes too!
*Hey Daryl! I know which RV guy has that pair of shoe le, but I duno his name. He is the Rv council exco from bball one. I saw him walk past when I was serving detention with my beloved Miss Sharon Phua and writing my wonderful essay on Chinese New year Celebrations!*

Now y'all know i like shoes a lot. Normally what i know about shoes is best meant for posing but for once i think it might actually prove to be quite useful. If any of y'all see an rv guy wearing this shoe in nj, go up to him and ask him to join swimming. And how do i know this will work? Well after training on friday with yun jie, we saw a stalia estrellas bag on the floor at the swimming complex, so there was probably a j1 swimming there. We wanted to hang around to see who this fella was, cos its would be a good opportunity to get him to join. We had to leave though, but as we left i saw this pair of shoes beside the bag. I remembered it cos i noticed it when i was walking into sch the other day. luckily its quite unique so i remembered it haha. so... if ya spot this shoe, go and accost the fella and force him to join swimming otherwise we will drown him if we see him hanging around queenstown pool again...

HAHA, today we did gym training and warm up around the track for 1 lap. I did 20 rounds for each machines and burned 79 calories on the cycling machine in 10 mins. anyway we heard the soccer team being scolded in the gym today. seems like their attitude not up to standard. then daryl and i went to the pool and swam. hwee ming went home to swim while ying hui went home to "help" his mother. my guess is that he went home to watch por*. ok then daryl and i did 400 warm-up, 200 pull, 200 cool down. then we also practised samsaulting and the wave motion. then we went home, back breaking. Anyway the team going out to watch geisha tml so going to have a good sleep today...
PS: Zhuang Yi, leave your name after each post so we know who write one.ok? thanks!

And finally me to post some crap. Today is just another moody day. I am afraid I cannot attend the training due to the bloody meeting taking place at 5 o'clock. Damn the meeting! But then again if I were to train today i won't be able to go 100% for tmr's intra-boarding sch basketball match. Will u guys go support me? But I guess it's most likely negative coz it will be held in the early morning at 9 o'clock. Aiya...
My eyecandy flashed a winsome smile at me during physics lecture, but probably my illusion. Yinghui knows who I am talking about, the tall sveltte chick. It somehow lifts the gloom of the day. My civics tutor held me back after civics and interrogated me for my absence in the double-period gp yesterday. Our conversation went like this:
Mr Teo: What were ur recent gp lessons on? What topics?
zy: Everyone is assigned a certain range of topics. So we went thru all kinds of topics. ( I thought he was just asking coz he was talking to our class about the importance of gp result in the selection of uni courses)
Mr Teo: Must be a particular topic u r goin for each lesson. Ah ok for instance wat was ur lesson on yesterday?
zy:(Oh shit! I skipped it to have my lunch) mmmm......errrrrrr, u noe, all kinds of topics....
Mr Teo: Is it on gender n sex issue?
zy:( How come he is so clear about it?) Maybe, or those kind of woman right or terrorism stuff....
Mr Teo: hey ANSWER MY QUESTION! What was the lesson on yesterday?
zy: I....I......U know wat, mr teo, I am not really attentive during gp lessons.
Mr Teo:(After an enigmatic smile) Or u didn't attend the lesson at all?
zy:(now true objective revealed! HE IS INTERROGATING ME!!) haha, yah, sorry, yea I didn't attend..I went to have my lunch. u noe, the timetabling committee sucks to the core, they arranged my lessons in such a way that I can only have my lunch at 2.20pm. U want to take a look at my timetable?(Forage around my back and delve out the crumpled timetable) U see, in the late 12 hours, my body is perpetually in a state of heavy exercise. Swimming training followed by my karate class. Next day right in the morning I just had pe as my 1st period and gotta run. I need to replenish my lost energy and I am still sick.blah blah blah (A long string of cock and lame excuses)
The conversation, to my surprise, then developed into a discussion abt nutritional studies. I insisted that if I dun have my lunch on time I'll have gastric pain he argued dat I won't coz I can have some light refreshment during the break I said that's fattening he argued no in fact having heavy lunch is fattening I said really he said yes coz he was 77kg at 1st then keep having more no. of light meals n now he was 70kg.hahahahaha I sneered then we went for our lunch 2gether.

wa kao. looks like last month has been a bad month for the swim team. everyone got down with sickness. hwee ming out of action becos of "tuberculousis", Daryl out cos of flu, Zhuang yi out due to cough, i out due to flu. so far only Jun cheng and Ying Hui safe... Anyway happy new year!!!
Haha, an indication of a recession or boom in the economy is the amount of ang pao u get. this year i can clearly say that the economy is not doing very well, contary to what the govt keep saying about how well the economy is doing. This year my ang pao only 300 dollars, ar shucks.. so little...
anyway i ate too much junk during the cny so now down with flu again... i went to the doc and he said got allergy to cold wind. Wow! i didn't know that there was such a thing but then nvm... Btw, Daryl, why u never update the blog about your curious boy thing???
It went like this, that day was a wednesday after the principal talk. then daryl got caught by the teacher talking cos he and his friend was playing with a inflatable baseball bat. when questioned on what he was doing, daryl said " I was not playing with the toy. I was just curious about it cos of it's bright colour so i borrowed it from my friend and took a look at it. then i got caught." LOL L for LAme. Daryl can't u think of a better reason..haha

yes! after 9 days of rain (yes i counted), we finally had a clear day on friday. however training wasn't quite what we expected. only me, zhuang yi and yinghui trained. the water was just really really cold. even after warm up we weren't warm at all haha. only did 600warm up then 400 kick + 400 pull. now that is really little but oh well its a start..we'll slowly make our way back to doing 3500m+ . hopefully sooner rather than later. oh and we all agreed that if we had j1s coming to train in those freezing conditions, they could possibly flee and never return.
i guess we can't ask for too much...at least there wasn't rain. now let's just hope that we get no rain and a little sun next time.

This whole week was super hectic. I am involved in the orientation so i been going to school early for the whole week. Yesterday was the dance party. As usual, there was a professional DJ and loud music. People went crazy and did train run throughout the parade square. It was also a sad day for everyone as it signals the end of a fun start to njc. Anyway, my class 06IP06 was a super great class and i enjoed being with them. 06 ROXS!!!
Ya, so when everyone left at 10, the ogls stayed back all the way till 11++ to do the cleaning up so in the end when i reached home, it was exactly 12. then i had tuition this morning at 10.

CCA carnival today could be summarised into a word. The word is FIASCO or rather pathetic would be a better word. After sitting there for 2 and a half hours, all we have got was 6 interested people to join us and 2 forced by Zhuang Yi. Ha..
The good thing today is that we got new IP guy, club swimmer :) Ha. His backstroke was so fast that he edged Ying Hui out of his position. Alright I shall not be mean. Haha, the rest of the day was spent waiting in vain -_-"
Okie for time being orientation is 4pm next tuesday meet at the grandstand :)
Rules from Ms AW and Ms Chng, cannot pon without MC (So if you are not coming, please die die go get a MC and give me kz) She ask me to mark attendance :( Good news is we get more more more funds from the school. Ha..
Oh, personel update, I saw my eye candy(the around for very long one) twice today :p

Today i went to poeple's park centre and for the first time in my life, the carpark is actually full. I think because it's near chinese new year and people are flocking to OG to buy their clothings. Anyway before i went to OG to buy my clothes, my mother went to a shop in people's park centre to get her clothings. While she was trying and all (women takes a long time to change man, i spent 1 hr ++ waiting...sian), my father and i saw in the shop. Outside the shop was 2 booth selling some fake chinese medicine i think and fake watches.
So, the funny part is this. when i went there, there was a middle aged man( aka horny man) at the fake watch booth and a china lady at the chinese medicine booth. So, that man was talking with the woman as though they were friends. Then, suddenly, the boss of the watch shop came back( form the toilet i think???). then that's when the funny part starts.
The horny man actually came to exchange a watch he bought like a month before. lol. wear so long already spoil also no guarantee, still dare to come and exchange. Nvr mind, the boss, being a kind man let him do so but that horny man wanted to change for a watch of a different model. WTF, if me i confirm say GO TO HELL. Nvr mind, the boss still kind man, so let him change. Then this bloody stupid horny man picked up every watch at the booth and started shaking them. The boss got upset and asked him to stop then they started to agrue. it went like this (all in english translation otherwise i will take forever to type out since they spoke in chinese and hokkien)
Boss: eh, don't shake my watch lei.
Horny man: don't shake how i know not spoilt.
Boss: shake already will spoil la
Horny man: must shake then know won't spoil ma, your watch no good one. put in my pocket the water will also seep into the watch
Boss: WTH, put in pocket the water seep into the watch. you wet your pants ar.Tehn u better go hospital check your dick, got problem with it
Horny man: My dick no problem, your watch has problem
Boss: ok fine i let you change but u don't shake my watch
Horny man: don't shake won't know whether can work or not. see the watch all stop at 3 one. your watch so inaccurate one. the hands never move
Boss: These are automatica watches, you have to wear them then they will move. nobody wear of course won't move
Horny man: So i must shake them then i know whether they can work or not. see my old watch shake got so much sound. that means spoil. so i shake your new watch to see whether got sound. don't agrue with me. i got a lot of experience in this one.
Boss: you got a lot of exp is it? then why u choose a watch that is spoilt and come back to change?You keep saking my watch they will spoil. don't say the watch, i shake u u will also die
By then the boss super irritated already. Then he asked the man to fuck off and the horny man started saying what the boss dishonest blah blah. To fully understand this, u must know the background of the story. It seems like this man had bought 9 watches fromt the boss already but everytime he bought a watch, he would come back every 1 week or so to exchange for a watch of a different model. then everytime he will shake all the watches at the booth, so it is natural that the boss is super pissed. then my father noticed something. he said that the horny man came to see the china woman one. he noticed that the man was ogling at her breasts all the time even when he was shaking the watches. So, the truth is known, the horny man bought the watches to get a chancce to look at her. Wa lao, this kind of cheap thrill also want. the womanm also not chio one, those kind that you better not look too much at if u just had a heavy meal. So the horny man must be damn desperate to want to bed her i think
Then we left and went to OG. On the way there, we saw a bald skinny man with moustaches parading in women clothings. He was carrying a ladies handbag and walking in high heels. He wore a one piece dress and even put padding into the breast area to fake a breast. Fuck man, damn gay,. I see already almost puke. WTH. what is the world coming to? so old already also want to act like char bo. ah ya go die and recarinate as girl can liao lor.
So, i went to OG and spent the rest of the night there buying my clothings and nothing eventful happended there. But then i think my parents felt that something happened cos i burnt a hole in their pockets. haha, i spent $373.10 today to be exact. haha. god i hoped i won't dream of those teo man tonight otherwise i gonna puke. hope i dream of someone else...

alright its my turn to hit the blog now...
as mentioned before, it was been raining like crazy this past week. and i really mean week. There has been rain for seven days in a row. its driving me nuts cos on one hand its nice and cool but on the other hand it sucks when ya want to go out, and even worse when ya want to train. we haven't hit the water for so long, but the rainwater has been hitting us for damn long. see its even screwing up my head :s
besides ruining our plans to train, the rain has almost cost me my phone..ha. I dropped my phone the other day and of all places it had to fall into a puddle of water. Damn. I was on the verge of slamming it viciously on the floor but luckily wanda came to the rescue and managed to get some of the water out of it. By the end of the day my phone was back to normal.
note to self: take care of personal possesions before attempting to pose/act cool. Failing to do so will make one a laughing stock.

Ahhh... Forget to say today I saw 2 eye candy!!! Got one is in Zhuang Yi's junior class! He poser cute, positively cute leh! The other one has been around for a very very long time, but only today did I realise that he is very CUTE!!! Ha. I tell Yinghui abt him then he duno who issit. Ha.
Oh yah, Yinghui! I know who Yun Jie was talking about. Ha. But u don't know. Hee. Wah I very enthu today! I posted 2 entries. Must end by saying, my eye candies are very very (to power of infinity) CUTE!!!

10:44 PM;
One word to describe the preparations for the CCA Carnival.. DUST! The banners were dusty, the posters were dusty and practically anything else we took from the cupboard was dusty. Ha. Must mention that Yinghui lost his correction fluid trying to hang the banner up! Ha. Serve him right for not listening to the team manager/water bottle carrier/ noise maker/ timer, which is essentially ME! Haha..
Well, as Yinghui said, poor Daryl, in the process of training to become an advance poser managed to spoil his phone. While Zhuang Yi hs graduated as the pro-poser with his HOT RED (cannot keep you warm) jacket. Ha. The rest of us still beginner posers!
Oh yah what would you people say to playing captain's ball or basketball on the orientation day? Its "EEeeeYErh!!!" Thats is like so not interesting.. :( Any suggestions as to what we going to do? Hey leave comments leh, our blog like very poor thing don't have comments, like we so unpopular one! Ha.. (Posers cannot say haha, posers muz say HA!) :p

10:34 PM;
yup, it's been nothing but raining for ONE WHOLE WEEK! can't even train now...really pisses me off...though i was mad enough to go bunny hopping around my house on Friday (again, coz we had no training), and now, i can barely walk down the stairs. although i usually say that stupidity has a limit, apparently i constantly break that limit...
well, today's bad luck spree started around 12.30. Since we had to prepare the stuff for CCA day, so no training, AGAIN!!! ¬¬' Zhuang Yi and i went to get the chairs and tables down at 12.30, only to find that the other members' civics tutors had refused to let them out...then, after school ended, i went with my classmates to do pull ups near the new dance room. Unfortunately, we had to put our bags on the red window sill, which still had WET PAINT on it, (without any sign saying there was wet paint) and we even leaned on it...damm suay. Took us more than 15 minutes to get all the paint off.
Then, when Zhuang Yi and i went to get the banners, we found that Wanda, who had the keys to the cabinet, was absolutely uncontactable, and in the end, i had to get one of the Myanmar CIP people to find her...in the meantime, Zhuang Yi, I and Jun Cheng went to design posters, and we ended up coming up with some rather cliched stuff...hiaz.
at 4.30, we finally managed to get hold of the keys from wanda. following tradition, we mounted the black banner over our table at the grandstand...and then bad luck started setting in again. First, i tied the banner string to my blanco, and when i tried to throw it over the beam, the blanco fell out and STAYED on the beam. And then, Daryl dropped his phone in a puddle (much to his hysterical cursing) while attempting some rather flashy soccer move, and now he can't use his keypad...
in any case, i know have to go make posters, and hopefully there'll be enough space in school to mount them...
PS: i wonder who yun jie was talking about...very suspicious...=p

Yoz, realise no one posted a single entry in the new year so i'm lucky number one.haha. anyway this week was super suay for the swim team.
At first, we agreed to train on wednesday bu tthen i had to stay back for the ogl debriefing till 5 so the whole team waited from 3 to 5 for me(i feel so loved, haha). Then at around 4.50, the bloody sky started to rain. When i was dismissed and ready to go, the whole sky was like dark and it wouldn't stop raining so we decided to cancel and train the next day. Then i also got a message from wei ping as he wanted my microsoft office cd so i rushed all the way to tiong bahru plaza to give him the disc. Then, we ate dinner together and he told me that he watched narnia with someone we knew ALONE...(who it is, don't ask me, i am bounded by an oath to him to keep it quiet).
Anyway, after that i went home and jogged 5km since i didn't exercise for that day. The next day, at 4.30pm, ui went down to the grandstand and saw Hwee Ming and Daryl with their friend. Then when i sat down, it bloody hell started to rain AGAIN. Then when Zhuang Yi came down, we decided to cancel AGAIN and also to train on friday.
Never mind if we didn't train on both days, in the morning of friday, Daryl suddenly messaged us that training is cancelled. i think he didn't want to train since it was too late after his lessons.but luckily he did that because at 4.30pm after my walk-in rehearsal, it started to rain AGAIN. wth, rained the entire week.
Worse of all was yesterday. I was in school for the full dress walk-in rehearsal. The entire morning was super hot then i sweat and sweat. then when the whole thing was over, it started to rain again. RAIN RAIN AND RAIN. Wopn't it just stop for a moment. Then i had to walk out of school in the bloody rain. At that moment, i realised that the stupid cultural mapping t-shirt is super absorbent. MY entire shirt was super wet when i reached the bus-stop. Then i went to orchard with the PA people. We went there to buy black shirt for the walk-in but b4 that we went to pasta mania to have our lunch. I got carbonara which was quite nice until i added too much of the free cheese into my food. Then the entire thing was so cheesy that i was full half-way into my meal. After that we went to taka to find the shirt in giordano but they didn't have so we went to kino where i got a book on concise hisotry of the modern world. I must be a history buff to love reading them so much. Then we looked around in taka for the shirt b4 realising that we were stupid to hope for the shirt to cost less than 30 dollars there.
So, we decided to go to john little. when we went out at the atrium of ngee ann city, there was some ngee ann poly competition going on and the person singing sucks. Then the sky was already dark and we hurried our way to john little. But suay suay, right outside e-spirit, it started to rain AGAIN. then we rushed through the rain to john little and my entire back was wet. bloody hell.
Then i got my shirt and was suprised i could wear medium. haha looks like i'm not that big-sized after all. Then today, the moment i woke up, it started to rain AGAIN. it's raining even as i typed this entry. WTH, won't you just stop raining, whoever's up there. it's cold down here. i need some warmth and love here...

My com is ok! Haha..
Have been dying to post this entry becos I still think Jack (Think, Jack the hero who went to look for Ann) is the boyfriend. King Kong IS the Third Party. Ha..
We trained on Thursday after a five days break. Poor Daryl couldn't join us becos he was sick *Poor thing... All Yinghui's fault* Its the first training that Zhuang yi join us. But he didnt make it enjoyable for us. It was the usual water resistance torture. Well, in the end we gave up after 2km training. We went town! *Cheers in the background* We watched 'A Chinese Tall Story', it was really a very very tall story. The storyline was ridiculous. Ha.. But the female lead still very cute. The way she talk was really really cute. Oh, I must mention that the Monkey God a.k.a. Sun Wu Kong very cute too, though it feels like he was in the movie for cameo appearances.. *Sighs and mumbles* No eye candy...

alright so we spent boxing day at yinghui's house. we were supposed to meet at 11, but at 10:15 I was still sleeping only to be woken up by yinghui's call. luckily he called me otherwise i would probably have been late haha. the usual bunch were there, joined by wei ping wenci yi xin and our captain - who we have not seen for a month. it seems like his month back home in china was quite eventful. he had to escape the attentions of some gay sicko while simutaneously handling the hordes of girls chasing after him. of course that didn't leave him with much time to do work, which means that for once the team is ahead of the capt in something haha
the long walk to merryn road was HOT. it didn't help that i chose to wear my poser jacket which looks cool but was slowly melting me inside. when we reached yinghui's house (finally) we were greeted by his neighbours' dogs. they were quite funny..barking like mad. the shining bmw z4 was sitting in the driveway gleaming in the sunlight. dammit i need one of those next time. oh and yinghui's house doesnt look as big during the day then it does at night. but its still a really nice place. my fav spot was the open-air sitting area where you could just lounge the whole day cos it was really relaxing there. the pool room was nice too. i bet we spent 70% of our time hanging out there haha.
regarding pool, i have luck that can be really amzingly good at times and downright horrendous the next moment. i sunk like 3 black balls to lose matches but also made some cool shots. it was really nice to have everyone playing pool together..a subtle difference from being in the pool together haha.
we gave the seniors their gifts and we got some too. i really like the ship-in-a-bottle that wenci gave and the rocher from yi xin was nice too. hope they like the picture frames we made for em. all in all it was a cool outing.. hope we can have more stuff like this in future.
peace out

Finally my turn...Friday was considerably uneventful, coz all of us went there and just stoned b4 training...(all of us were horrendously deprived of sleep). And for once, I didn't have to catch up with the rest of them since everyone started at the same time (apparently it's not very good for training though, since now the people who start later have no motivation to go faster -.-'). Oh yes, did I mention that the pool was trying to kill us?! Bloody heck, some idiot removed the caps on the water jets, so the resistance gained super saiyan mode and slaughtered all of us. Then, the pool tried to turn all of us into icicles (maybe it has a fetish for human and king kong flavoured gelato...)
Anyway, we did the EXACT SAME THING we did for the past 2 trainings *yawn*, but coz the pool had murderous intent, it really felt as if hell had literally frozen over...After that, our King Kong (or should it be Queen Kong?) needed to swing off to a movie, while Yun Jie and Hockamania decided that they couldn't tahan the genocidal pool and cut down on the s.s, so I ended up being the only one that swam 3.5 km T_T...
PS: I DO NOT LIKE power ranger toys...I just wanna now how they work...its Yun Jie who's absolutely obsessed about them (you can never imagine how bad it was at the library... T_T)
Yinghui (dammit YJ, there is no spacing in my name!)
Oh, and Merry X mas everyone =)

Haha. This post is for yesterday since there was training yesterday.Luck came and go all the time yesterday. I missed my bus 855 to the pool and took another bus and caught up with 961. WTH, waste my fare money. out liao, left $1.05.
The training was very hectic, Hwee Ming was hurrying to finsh her swim by 12pm as she wanted to go town with her friends by 1 so she already changed when i got there. Before that, i got warning that Yinghui was already pissed that Daryl and I was late?!? ( it was only 9.50 when i got the message). Anyway, that day the pool was half closed for the gold star swim so everyone crowded into one half. Then we did some warm-up and went down. Hwee Ming was like a robot and went non-stop while Yinghui also piaed, left me and Drayl lagging behind. In the end only Ying Hui completed his 3.5km swim while Hwee Ming did 3.3 and daryl and i only managed to do 3.0 b4 we gave up. And so, that all for the swim.
Then, we got out of the pool and this is where the interesting part begans. After bathing, we took our valuables out from the locker as usual then i saw a message from my primary and secondary school friend asking me out for to watch narnia. Ironically, i asked him 2 days ago then he said he wanted to watch with his family then he messaged me to tell me that his family cannot make up their mind. Anyway, since i wanted to go kino to buy books due to the 20% discount, io arranged for us to watch in orchard. then i went home and put my stuff down b4 i went out.
This is where the freaking part begans. I and my friends missed the 123 bus and HELL boke loose. I saw 5 buses of 131, 4 buses of 65, 2 buses of 275(a miracle), 2 buses of 855(a super miracle), 5 buses of 195 before the next bloody 123 came. to think it was one of the highest frequency bus. That was not all of my luck. By luck, Hwee Ming was also watching the same movie as me in the same seating and timing. LOL, what luck. Then she messaged me to tell me half the seats were gone. I was like WTF, the bus better hurry up and come otherwise i will blow it's ass off. then it came and i had to change my plan of taking the bus to orchard and take the mrt instead.
Then when i got to orchard mrt, we went and get the tickets at lido. By chance, i saw Hwee Ming and her friends talking outside the booth but i didn't greet her since i didn't want to disturb her. After that, i only got 1 hr b4 the show starts and i pied all the way to kino to get my books. When i reached there, the 1st thought was Shit! so many books, where to find! My friend and i took about half an hour b4 we found the book we wanted. Anyway, Kino self help locating books machine sucks. I searched for Chronicle so of narnia and 489 results came out. WTF! Then so many people were lining up behind me to use it. Somemore, only a few had stocks so iw as thinking why bother having the tittles listed there when there were no stocks...
Then after that, we went to pay. Wa lao, so many people. Almost line up to the exit. after paying, only left 5 mins to the start of the movie. so had to rush back. Damn, i really hate foinf to town. That 5 mins became 15 mins cos people were stopping in their tracks for nothing especially at the wisma underground.
At this moment, i found out that Hwee Ming was sitting at the same row as me... but at a different block of seats. ok, then i went into the cinema finding my seat and sat down relieved that the movie haven't started. Narnia actually was a quite nice movie, a bit too much fantasy though. A bit of comedy here and there also makes it better to watch.
Then, the movie ended and i went home. But on the way home, while crossing the road at the Borders junction, a car was blocking the road by stopping in the middle and caused all the pedestrians to walk around it. I was at teh end of the crowd and when i was in the middle, the light turned red. damn, had to run becos kena honked. At this moment, i saw Hwee Ming AGAIN. LOL, today see her so many times. Maybe it's fate....to see her 4 times a day after seperating.... hmmm......
After that, i went to my busstop and missed my bus. I cursed my Luck and waited 25 mins for the bloody bus 65. to think i saw 4 of them this afternoon. then i went back home to help my brother with his bbq, and then went to sleep.

Today Hwee Ming and i turned up at the pool at 12 to do our maths homework while Yinghui turned up at 1. Then we were super ahead of Yinghui which makes him so pissed that he continued doing his work even when hwee ming and i went down to swim at 2. He was so obssesed with catching up that even when Daryl turned up and started swimming, he continued his work until we had a head start of 1.2km, the same as friday. But today we finshed the swim quicker at 4.30pm and then we went home.
I went to get food for terapin since it didn't eat for 2 days already.. then i saw all the live worms and frogs at the aquarium shop. wa lao, damn disgusting la. can't believe fishes actually eat those things then we eat them. no wonder the wastes that come out of our ass are call shit. but then, to think china sells all kinds of "exotic" food also and the people there has no qualm eating them so all kinds of things can happen in this world.
Anyway, today we did 3.5km of swim with 1.2km of w.u, 0.8km of p, 0.8km of k, 0.5 of s.s and 0.2km of c.d. But then today was the most tiring.. maybe becos i never eat lunch b4 i swim.

our team is quite punctual. a bit TOO punctual in fact. hweeming and yunjie are always early no matter what time we choose to meet. be it training or just going out you can be sure that thery're be there first. like later they're going to the pool to do some work first. i wonder if they smell of chlorine will make the mind work more efficiently. anyway, i hope they stick to doing work and that they don't jump into the pool and clock 1.2k even before i get there. maybe i'll go earlier and clock 1.5k or something first then they'll have fun catching up. yinghui will blow his top haha...

Well, today we were supposed to do our homework together at je library. So, we agreed to meet at the mrt at 10 but hwee ming and i wanted to play a prank on the others by turning up early at 9.30am and eating our breakfast first so that we can hurry them while they ate breakfast. In the end, we were only a bit earlier and everyone ate their breakfast slowly so it wasn't much of a point. But then we discovered something. A mac breakfast meal provides u with more than half the calories u need for a single day, which means u cannot eat lunch or dinner unless u want to grow fatter. Darn, it's so damn unhealthy. Are all nice food supposed to be unhealthy?
Anyway, after that we went to the library and ended up sitting at the coldest spot of the library. There, we teased about Yinghui and his power ranger interest. In the end, we only spent 3 hours at the library doing 9 questions of the finale exercise and most of it was spent on talking rubbish like singing barney the purple dinosaur and killing it in the song ( don't realy know what song it is, daryl should know it best). Then we ketan Yinghui until he tapped. Maybe someone should buy him a power ranger toy for his birthday or as christmas present, he will be "very grateful", serious.
then after 3 hours of coldness and jokes, we went of the library, cursing our homeworks. Daryl wanted to go to popular to use his $20 voucher and ended up buying a book called "why bread always ends up butter-side down" if i am not wrong...maybe i will borrow it from him one day although it looks a bit lame. There, hwee ming and i watched the superstar live concert vcd at cd-rama and commented on the singers' performace looks while yinghui walked around looking at books.
Then we returned to jec for the movie king kong. the moment we went in at 1.40pm, i knew gone liao. the seats a bit the creaky then bends back a little. makes u feel so uncomfortable. then the air- con temp like roasting a pig in a furnace like that, can't even feel a thing. Worse of all, jurong people had no initiative. fu** those people who didn't even bothered to switch their bloody phone to silent mode man. the whole 3 hrs movie, at least 8 different phone sounded with their stupid ringtones. somemore not those nice pop music, it's those stupid nokia tune. so distracing lor, watch little bit then someone phone rang then the person has no courtesy to speak softly somemore, all of them speak like ah beng and ah lian. some ah pek talked into his phone like a gangster like that. so god damn rude la. should send them to retrain their manners.
Other than that, the movie was quite ok. king kong must be a sexually active and perverted being. He kept on touching the ann's sensitive parts with his fingers if u noticed properly. maybe he stayed too long on the island with the animals then a bit horny when he saw the other animals making out. or maybe he made out b4 since there were so many skeletons around who could have died due to his huge banana... ok back to main pt. The whole movie was about this stupid movie director who wanted to film a movie about romance and adventure in skull island in somehwere near indonesia and got ann, a thearte actress to go with his and also jack a famous scriptwriter. there, they meet king kong who likes ann and want to possess her but jack loves her so get her back. king kong buay song then chase after her then kena sleeping gas by the director who then display him in new york. unfortunately, king kong escapes, creates havoc while finding ann and dies when aeroplane shot him down from the empress?? or state?? building. (Empire State Building la! <= YH) ya then basically, i felt that king kong was the boyfriend of ann since he officially slept with her while jack only kissed her which hwee ming totally disagreed since she thought jack was a hero and deserved the beauty. ah yo, hwee ming also king kong species, why nvr help her own brother. so, we ended up aguring about this the whole movie and there was no conclusion at the end of it and then we went home with this unconcluded disagreement.

the team has been reduced to walking wounded today. courtesy of the sun, we turned a healthy shade of black. we learnt many things, both in and out of the pool, and not all of which are relevant to swimming.
1. the chicken teriyaki sandwich at subway is super messy. its contents are near impossible to keep within the bread. expect a big mess should you attempt to eat one.
2. hwee ming likes the middle position. with 3 guys. ... ... in front of the computer watching ... ... me type this entry now.
3. Confucious says: man who play with white sticky stuff will encounter great mess...white glass paint la...what u thinking??!!
4. Yun Jie's bedboard is not a board...it is as solid as a concrete wall - actually it IS a concrete wall. It is most painful during HEAD on collisions...
5. Yun Jie forgets when he feeds his tortoise...-.-'
6. Eau Thermale Avene TriXera Emollient Cream is very good for treating sunburns and it also gives a nice shiny sheen to the skin.
7. Yinghui's appetite cannnot be judged from his size...=O
8. We like Putting Olives aRound Noodles...ya right...
9. Any other comments added after 5.25 pm on the 19th of December is fictious and should be ignored...
10. Ying Hui likes playing with power ranger toys. maybe he's old on the outside but young at heart.
By the way, for commemerative purposes, (just in case something happens to us) we did this today:
1200 w.up
800 p
800 k
500 s.drill
200 w.d
