Played basketball for 8 hours straight from 2pm all the way till 10 plus. Haha, it's okay. Don't be surprised by it or anything. Of course most importantly is to improved from playing such long hours. Shan't touch on basketball any longer.
Let's go into another topic....
Have you ever felt insulted and feel like whacking someone before? Of course we all do. Have you really whacked the hell out of someone before? I bet some of you do. For my case... not YET.
I've yet to beat up or pick up a fight with anyone in my life so far. Yes, that's a good thing. Being tolerant is a good thing and also a difficult thing to do. It's quite surprising for myself that i've been able to tolerate things up till now. Campcraft and NP for example. Not that the so-called troublemakers are the cause. Just that it gets really irritating when you are already very tired and yet things can't get done.
Hmmm.. in any case i think it will be surprising to anyone if i ever get into a fight. I'm always the one getting bullied right XD
Stilll... if anyone ever EVER cross the limit, i will really whack that person up. So far i've been very tolerant. When i get really angry, i will only tend to hit or kick objects. I wonder what happens when i really whack someone up... HEHE.
Oh well. Still it's bad to fight. Don't get into fights too easily, control your anger. Better friends than foes.
Ciao.
Wednesday, March 25, 2009 @ What a Day.
Yo peeps.
Today is wednesday. Let's talk about it.
Met up with sherwin, shaun and akmal to game at Katong area. Played Left 4 Dead and woots was it fun. It isn't all too scary and well, pretty fun actually (I'm not sadistic kay.)
Well, someone just had to ruin the day by stealing Akmal's phone. Of course it was wrong for Akmal to place it on the table and then leave it there while he took a break at the toilet. That was it, practically why i feel that Singapore's future may not be all too promising. More and more youngsters are getting more horrible in attitude. Scolding vulgarities may be alright, i swear too. But their attitude sucks. Those assholes out there never learn, do they. I hate them, i freaking hate this kind of people.
Left the LAN shop and guess what, someone tried to steal Akmal's bike by trying to break the lock. Luckily, that person failed. We managed to remove the lock and went off to makan. Screw those people again. While the world is already dying, people are being brainless ruining each other's lives. Screw all this thing happening in the world.
Then, we splitted up and i went off to PP to get my wristbands. Yup, finally. I lost my previous white one.
I guess i want to be ready.
Got my wristbands already, time to start work.
I have less than a month's time to work on my skills.
The more i should wake up.
I want to take good shots.
I want to block whatever shots come in my way.
I want to intercept as many passes as i can.
I want to take control of the boards.
Most of all, i want to play at my best and enjoy a good game.
I'm ready to play.
ciao.
Monday, March 23, 2009 @ Leaving those footprints.
Yo peeps. How's life?
WAHAH! yup... I've got SO MUCH time to spend that i'm blogging to kill time. Don't be jealous JC peeps! XD
That's the difference. JC peeps' got no time to kill. Poly peeps' got too much time to kill.
In any case, let me blog nonsense now.
Hmm, i'm just go straight into my thoughts. The mood's been pretty sad or just not as happy as always. Yes, i've always been the think-a-lot guy.
It's just when i look back at the past i start emo-ing or feeling sad. It's just the feeling of regret that you didn't do as much as you could to enjoy youth to the fullest. That regret that I didn't went all crazy while I was still at TKSS. That regret that I didn't have fun with my class and went out more often with them.
Oh well, it's too late :/
If I can, I really want to go back again, to where i used to spent my last 4 years doing all sorts of nonsense with a whole lot of other friends.
Looking at my own seat. Getting back the feeling of that vibrance 4G had, that liveliness, that crapiness and all sorts of crazy things we did. Jumping around, running around! Telling jokes, talking all sorts of nonsense! Eating during lessons! Lectures and Lectures from the HOD... Well, yes we were THAT full of nonsense.
Taking a seat. Where I did everything. homework! Vandalising! (OOOPS :P) Hiding food under the table! messaging secretly under the table! Storing every single text books under the table!
Making a leave. School ends and it's time to go. Just like life does. The sun comes up and you start working. The sun goes down and you take a break. Sometimes, it just doesn't rewind though. That's the thing about time. When it goes, it doesn't return. Only memories remain as footprints of time. The thing that made you remember who you are, what you did, where you were, why and when.
Somehow, every part of TK stings me with a bitter feeling.
Oh well, don't worry i will surely find time to go back.
TK NPCC CC comp 2010. If it ever happens, i will go back and help.
TEMASEK POLY TEAM. If it ever happens (Pray for me!), i will wear that jersey and go back to where i started the journey of playing the game. I will show all the achievements i've made within those 3 years. From beginner to what i have become.
Maybe going LAN with 2 peeps on wednesday. WOOTS!
oh well, this is me (Latest Photo)! Yes i think i am turning into a camo freak! (just for a while :p)
Okay enough of this ugly peep XD
You can comment but don't you dare insult this guy... i will KILL you. *stares*
That's it people, ciao!
strangely, it tastes both sweet and sour. Just that one remains while the other fades.
@ Pheww.
Yo peeps. How's life?
I will just blog about saturday and sunday..
First of all... saturday! Some of my class people went out to celebrate Samuel's birthday. There were Meryl, Charmaine, Naomi, Andy, Eugene, Joel, Marcus, Darrell, Samuel and Me!
We walked around orchard finding place to eat, we were all damn hungry. Stuck in Wismar Atria, unable to find a place to makan -.-
Then, we decided to head over to Fish and Co. (FINALLY :] )
whoa... what a mess. What to expect from 4gee man.. XD
The birthday boy, Samuel!
With lighting...
no lighting...
Group photo!
Some gay action going on down there XD
Birthday boy showing off his cutting skills.
After eating, we decided to head over for some pool...
2 lonely guys at the corner.
2 weary girls at the other corner.
Andy with some skills!
No fear! My Turn!
Haha still goes to him in the end, birthday mah!
HOWEVER.. picture didn't really mean a thing... Darrell, Naomi and I VS Andy and Samuel. Apparently, Naomi led the team to victory.. Walao so MALU -.-
Then, around 9.30 joel, darrell, naomi and I had to leave, ending the fun saturday night.. Still, it didn't end there... Damn i won't say a thing... only the other 3 knew T.T
Now, moving on the sunday...
Slack the whole morning until 4 plus went off to basketball all the way till about 10pm. Wow, that's 6 hours straight.
Apparently i was tired at first, playing lazily until my cousin told me i had to move about more. I did and i went abit on fire. Then, i loose control of the ball and 1 guy snatched it away from me, in the process hitting me in the face. Okay, by then i was TICKED OFF. Nah, not that guy's fault but i was just ticked off. So i went to work off some reboundings, at first the score was about 4/5 against 10? We eventually tied up the game soon until they shot 3 point and it went in -.-
Then, the last 3 games at the court were the best. I did some nice lay-ups and it really made me feel happy. Finally that day ended with a SMILE!
Oh well... about 3 weeks more till POLY Orientation..
Somehow.. your face still remains clear.
I don't know what else i can do. Nothing.
Saturday, March 21, 2009 @ Left hanging there
hey peeps. how's life?
mine was okay but this week is a little packed.
yes packed.
packed with outings and outings!
well... march holidays so obviously JC peeps will TRY to take a break and chill with their friends.
haha. oh well, i'm just gonna blog about today.
went back to school in the morning to collect sgc and play basketball. actually i only wanted to prove something. yes i proved it, i improved from last time. pretty much i guess :)
around 5 plus met banjamin and jia ying at bedok reservoir for banjamin to do a time trial as preparation for the nationals to be held in 3 day's time.
i have a feeling he can try make it for the top 3 position, his timing is crazy man.
jy and me chatted and even wondered if he really can make his timing... and he really did.
jia you buddy! go for top 3!
then we met up with darrell and tian sern at TM to catch night movie.
after discussing like hell (all the movies were pretty boring to me...), we decided to watch Detroit Metal City.
at first i didnt want to though, cause i HATE death metal... so noisy la!
but after watching the movie, i have to change my view (not about death metal though..).
if you are looking for a good laugh, this is definitely the movie for you :)
firstly, what's your view of a heavy metal or death metal singer?
next, picture a gay-ish guy who speaks with a breaking high-pitched voice and runs with both his hands by his chest swinging from side to side.
lastly, combined this two pictures... yes. that's what you get from the movie. freaking hilarious.
i guarantee you that you will laugh your ass off this one.
however, there is a price to pay... hehe...
it is not advisable for young children BUT we all know theres this thing call download.
just make sure you don't mind crude humor and swearing.
then you will enjoy a hell of a time from this movie :)
oh well, that's the fun of the day..
this song is dedicated to all of you.
enjoy :)
Elliot Yamin - Wait For You
Wait For You lyrics
[Verse 1]
I never felt nothing in the world like this before Now I'm missing you & I'm wishing that you would come back through my door Why did you have to go? You could have let me know So now I'm all alone, Girl you could have stayed but you wouldn't give me a chance With you not around it's a little bit more than I can stand And all my tears they keep running down my face Why did you turn away?
[Bridge]
So why does your pride make you run and hide? Are you that afraid of me? But I know it's a lie what you keep inside This is not how you want it to be
[Chorus]
So baby I will wait for you Cause I don't know what else I can do Don't tell me I ran out of time If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you If you think I'm fine it just ain't true I really need you in my life No matter what I have to do I'll wait for you
[Verse 2]
It's been a long time since you called me (How could you forget about me) You got me feeling crazy (crazy) How can you walk away, Everything stays the same I just can't do it baby What will it take to make you come back Girl I told you what it is & it just ain't like that Why can't you look at me, you're still in love with me Don't leave me crying.
[Bridge]
Baby why can't we just, just start over again Get it back to the way it was If you give me a chance I can love you right But your telling me it won't be enough
[Chorus]
So baby I will wait for you Cause I don't know what else I can do Don't tell me I ran out of time If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you If you think I'm fine it just ain't true I really need you in my life No matter what I have to do I'll wait for you
[Bridge]
So why does your pride make you run & hide Are you that afriad of me? But I know it's a lie what you're keeping inside That is not how you want it to be
Baby I will wait for you Baby I will wait for you If it's the last thing I do
[Chorus]
Baby I will wait for you Cause I don't know what else I can do Don't tell me I ran out of time If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you If you think I'm fine it just ain't true I really need you in my life No matter what I have to do I'll wait for you
I'll Be Waiting.
well... this song explains my mood. the lyrics remains half-true and half a mystery to me.
I'm a stubborn guy, if I had a chance, I will do it. even with the slightest opportunity I will do it.. I don't like being ignored, ignored in a way as though people never knew each other before.. I rather being ignored with a reason of hatred or annoyance than without any reason at all.. I'm neither superman nor a psychic, things don't just come to me..
My parents always tells me this. when you try to find something you had lost, you will never be able to find it. when you stop finding then it will eventually come out again.
I want to turn back time.. I really do.
because things just slowly fades as i speak.
Tuesday, March 17, 2009 @ It's been a run..
Yo peeps.
Late at night, 1 am+ and i'm still awake. Phew.. just that thoughts have been going through my mind all of a sudden today :/
somebody... i want a break T.T
Eversince year 2009 began, certain things happened suddenly and haven't been too great for me.
Been through emotional periods... ups and downs... thinking about all those just make me so tired. Sigh..
Whatever it is, i'm staying strong still. Still alive right.
Let me just write out my thoughts here..
Family wise.. sometimes i do see things which i'm not happy with. But of course i guess being the youngest in the family doesn'tgive me the right to speak. But thinking about how fortunate i am compared to some of the people i know, i have no right to complain either. But seeing those things just disappoints me at times..
Been working for near 3 monthsor so already.. i had pretty much adapted to the job better now and making lesser mistakes. The purpose is to earn money for school fees and now i know money don't come easily. Tiring to wake up and go stand for 5 hours. Man...
Myself.
Feel that I've somewhat changed eversince graduation. Better or worse... I don't know.
Sometimes... No, many a times, i see things in myself i want to change. Maybe i expect a little too much i guess.I'm more of a listener than a speaker. I think more than i execute. I can't help it that i find it hard to clique with people. When the other party speaks, i will listen and think more instead of replying them. I can't help it. Hopefully i become better when poly starts. Sigh..
Hmmm.. plans for this week?
Tuesday: Work in morning, evening onwards train basketball.
Wednesday: Train basketball
Thursday: Train basketball then chalet.
Friday: SGC collection (back to TK :])
Saturday: Outing
Sunday: Train basketball.
Time's ticking and i know my chances are slim.
But i just love the game so much that i talk more about it than i do about myself.
Even through playing video games, i managed to learn many things.. calling Plays, learning to be calm etc.
Still, i'm prepared to accept the fact that i will be rejected.
Oh well..Here's some videos to cheer people up. It helps for me :]
I laughed my ass off that one. Next!
Another hilarious one!
Dwyane wade, the guy who inspired me to play the game better ;]
Some quotes:
“You’ve got to respect the game and you’ve got to respect what the people that have played have done for the game.”
“I’ve stuck by being modest, honest and humble, because I think you’ll get more appreciated that way and we all want to be appreciated in this world.”
as for me, what do i always tell myself the most?
Give yourself only opportunites to improve than to think about anything else.
that's it. ciao.
Sunday, March 15, 2009 @ It wasn't too bad!
Yo peeps! How's liferecently?
well... it's mid-march already. Poly's gonna start in a month's time. Looking forward to it certainly :]
in any case, i slept at 5am because i was watching an NBA Match (Utah Jazz @ Miami Heat) at 1am. It was supposed to be 2.5 hours but it ended late cause the match went into triple overtime! How exciting was that man!
Here's the highlight of the match :]
Everything was going okay until the 4th quarter when Miami rally on to score 6 points under a minute to tie the game. (All thanks toO'neal's crucial block on Millsap's dunk for Haslem to tie the game with 2 free-throws)
Things only took a turn duringthe 3rd OTwhen Jazz committed turnovers for Chalmers and Wade to steal the ball and went on to take a 11 points lead to win the Jazz, 140-129.
Though i slept at 5am, it was worth it man!
Oh well that's all peeps, ciao!
Monday, March 9, 2009 @ 09/03
Yo peeps! Nothing to blog about.
Just wanna wish...
BENEDICT YEO, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hope you're having fun in Australia :]
and... FATIN, HAPPY BIRTHDAY too!
wish you guys all the best in this coming year ;)
Ciao!
Sunday, March 8, 2009 @ That's the way it goes.
My mood now:
What you want to pursue is just like sand.
It can so easily fall through your palm..
But at the same time, you can choose to clench it while you can.
So choose, fall or hold?
Song for all of you: "Somewhere out there" by Our Lady Peace
Last time I talked to you You were lonely and out of place You were looking down on me Lost out in space
Laying underneath the stars Strung out and feeling great Watch the red orange glow Watch it float away
Down here in the atmosphere Garbage and city lights Gonna save you're tired soul You're gonna save our lives Turn on the radio to Find you in satellite I'm waiting for the sky to fall I'm waiting for a sign
And all we are Is all so far
You're falling back to me The star that I can see I know you're out there somewhere out there You're falling out of reach Defying gravity I know you're out there Somewhere out there
Hope you remember me When you're homesick and need a change I miss you're purple hair I miss the way you taste I know you'll come back some day On a bed of nails I wait I'm praying that you don't burn out Or fade away
And all we are Is all so far
You're falling back to me The star that I can see I know you're out there somewhere out there You're falling out of reach Defying gravity I know you're out there Somewhere out there
You're falling back to me The star that I can see I know you're out there
You're falling out of reach Defying gravity I know you're out there Somewhere out there
You're falling back to me The star that I can see I know you're out there somewhere out there You're falling out of reach Defying gravity I know you're out there Somewhere out there
You're falling back to me I know, I know
You're falling out of reach I know
Friday, March 6, 2009 @ Get back on the track
Yo peeps! How's life?
Let's see...
I have done the admission and medical check-up for poly already. (which was dammmn troublesome -.-") Now, i just need to play hard, work hard and then school life will start again for me. Kind of looking forward to it actually... I'm gonna play hard and mug hard when poly starts! Hehe!
Just now was watching "Slumdog Millionaire", which according to many people is a very nice film, and apparently they were right :]
Mumbai, the eighteen year-old orphan from the slums Jamal Malik is tortured by the policemen in a precinct accused of cheating a game show. Jamal, who has no education and works in a call center serving tea, is close to wining twenty million rupees in the show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" hosted by Prem Kumar, giving precise answers to the questions and raising suspicion of fraud. The police inspector shows the videotape and after each question, Jamal tells parts of his childhood with his brother Salim, his crush for Latika and their fight to survive on the streets to justify each correct answer, guided by his common sense and past experience, and prove his innocence.
I would give it a 4.5 out of 5. The plot was nice and well brought out. The music used, surprisingly, was actually quite nice :] The acting were good, especially for young Salim and Jamal, and most of the cute and funny moments came from them. Enough comments, check out the trailer.
Well, if you are free or rotting at home, please go check out this show. It really is a good movie, no kidding!
Anyway, i'm still playing basketball as usual, need to train and train!! Must TAHAN....TAAAAHAAAANNNNN. I CAN DO IT... RAWWWRRR!
Okay people, that's all for now. Ciao!
As of now.. I don't wanna think that much.
Maybe I'm afraid.
I don't want to face the same things again... disappointment, regret, pain..
I guess I am.
Let time do the job.
Erase them away.
Yup.. erase them away.
Tuesday, March 3, 2009 @ NBA MVP thoughts (Part 2 of the post)
The following portion will be about NBA.
First of all, this is my favorite player from theleague,Dwyane"Flash" Wade.
:: Wade's stats (08-09) :: Points per game: 29.0 (1st in ranking) Rebounds per game: 5.0 (Not in top 50) Assists per game: 7.4 (9th in ranking) Steals per game: 2.14 (3rd in ranking) Blocks per game: 1.43 (20th in ranking) Height: 1.93m Miami Heat Win-Loss Record: 31-27 (5th in East)
Recent Achievement(s): - Scored Career-High 50points against Orlando Magic, however, loss in the end. - Dished out Career-High 16 assists against Detroit Pistons in win. - Led the Miami Heat from a 15 point deficit in final 9 minutes of the game against New York Knicks to secure the win.
Next, this guy is another awesome player,LeBron "King" James.
:: LeBron's stats (08-09) :: Points per game: 28.4 (2nd in ranking) Rebounds per game: 7.4 (29th in ranking) Assists per game: 7.0 (10th in ranking) Steals per game: 1.8 (6th in ranking) Blocks per game: 1.2 (28th in ranking) Height: 2.03m Cleveland Cavaliers Win-Loss Record: 46-12 (1st in East)
Recent Achievement(s): - Scored 55 points in a win over the Milwaukee Bucks on February 20, 2009.
Lastly, as all NBA fans should know,Kobe Bryant.
:: Kobe's stats (08-09) :: Points per game: 27.7 (3rd in ranking) Rebounds per game: 5.5 (Not in top 50) Assists per game: 5.0 (26th in ranking) Steals per game: 1.3 (23rd in ranking) Blocks per game: 0.4 (Not in top 5o) Height: 1.98m Los Angeles Lakers Win-Loss Record: 48-12 (1st in West)
Recent Achievement(s): - Scored 61 points against New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden,sets the record for highest points scored in Madison Square Garden.
One of the discussions going on in NBA is the MVP candidate. Right now it is the battle between these three players - LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade.
Let's see... To me, i actually feel that the MVP is more of a battle between just two players, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade.
Kobe is of course 1 of the best players in the league, but judging by the stats alone, he is definitely not producing as well as the other 2 players are.Still, he is a very good player, very versatile I must say. Let him loose and he will score, 100%. That's how accurate he is. Just check out on videos and you will be able to see a lot of incredible plays from him.
Moving on...
LeBron James. This year, the ClevelandCavaliers are definitely doing VERY well, being the 1st in Eastern Conference. James is also producing good results. Scoringbuckets, blocking shots, even dishing out more assists than he had during the last few seasons. Idon't think that many Forwards are capable of doing what he is doing now. He also has great vertical abilities, man, he can just soar from near the free throw lane and then throwing down a monster dunk. For example, during the last dunk he did at the all-star game,his head was at the rim level. That is how HIGH he can jump.
Dwyane Wade. For the Miami Heat, theyare definitely not as well as the Cavaliers with the winning and losing record pretty close, near 50%.Hence, i must say that more load is cast onto Wade than Cavaliers has on James. Judging by Wade's performance thisyear, he is definitely having his best season so far. He is taking shots, dishing out assists, intercepting balls and passes and most impressive of all, he is blocking more shots than usual.He is the only guard to make it in the top 50 list of Blocks per Game.
If you were to look at personal skills and abilities,I feel that James would stand out more. However, if you were to look at Team stats as well, I feel that Wade would deserve the title more. He has a heavier burden with a weaker team. Yet, he is still winning matches for the team and also performing well on his own. It all depends on how you look at it. Oh well, let's just seehow the season will end.
Okay that's all, enough of my thoughts, ciao people!
@ Hear my rantings! (Part 1 of the post)
Yo peeps.. how's life lately?
Mine? Argh.. too many words to define. Just feeling damn moody now. F***. Pardon me if i swear or anything later on in the post. Just feeling... ARGH.
Words to describe? Disappointment. Anger. Demoralized. Frustrated. Irritated. Tired. FCUKED-UP!
Let's see.. This morning went for medical check-up.. okay fine, went early cause my Mum said there would be a lot of people. Of course i was rather exhausted due to lack of sleep and looked pretty moody. And so what she said was true. Apparently i WAS SUPPOSED to be the 5th person to go for the check-up with the doctor. Somehow.. couldn't go to the toilet to do small business... So i drank like 5-7 cups of water?! And waited for half-an-hour or so.. in the end became the 20 plus person to see the doctor instead.
Fine, okay i waited.
Went inside the the room to see the doctor. Everything went fine. Then when the check-up was done. She gave me the collection form and said something and i didn't really managed to catch what she said. Then of course i had to asked her again what she had said to me earlier on.
Me: "Sorry, go where?"
Doctor: "You can *something something, i couldn't hear what she said again* or you can choose to stay here if you want."
Okay, maybe to you guys it didn't sound like anything much.. BUT she replied with that attitude as though i was trying to pull a joke with her. COME ON, I COULDN'T CATCH WHAT YOU SAID EARLIER ON. OF COURSE I HAVE TO ASK YOU AGAIN IN CASE I LEAVE ANYTHING OUT RIGHT? MEDICAL CHECK-UP LEH! WTF?!
Fine, after that i just left the place to meet up with my mum and then went home.
Next thing, Basketball.. DAMN FRUSTRATING. I am getting worse and worse. Damn demoralizing. I am left with 1 and a half months before POLY starts. I know now that i have no chances of making it to the team.
The day before i went to Banjamin's place to do up the POLY admission thing. At the same time played basketball as well. I was darn freaking lousy. let's see... shooting maybe 2 out of 10 will go in? Drive in to the basket also will get blocked. Fine, maybe they are adults they are more experienced than me. I looked at them, they are like the same height as me yet i get blocked by them?! Not saying i should be better but come on, if they can do it why can't I?! What the freaking hell am i lacking?!
Today afternoon went off to play again with some people i used to play with. By right, i seriously feel that i should be better than them, i am not boasting now. I can grabbed grabbed rebounds better than them. Maybe that's defensive wise. But i can't even drive in to do a proper lay-up and my shooting were all out. Oh come on, how can i not be disappointed with myself? It's damn frustrating to think that you're not doing well and not even halfway near your goal. IT FEELS JUST FCUKED-UP.
I will always watch matches by the side, hoping i can just go in and join them. But when i start thinking how i would perform, it's just so demoralizing and disappointing. Seriously i don't have any high hopes now. So much for saying how much i want to get into the team. Maybe i'm not cut-out for this. Feel like an ass man.. ALL TALK NO ACTION. Why is all these shit happening to me..
I will just continue playing for the time being and see how things go. SIAN. SIAN. SIAN.
