Don't Ever Give Up
Monday, September 28, 2009 @

I wish that time could just slow down..
and then i can just laze around
and take a stroll by the beach.

A laid-back life is more suited for me.. i guess.







But then again.. I will be fat by then..
Darn -.-

Chatted with my bro Ban earlier on.
Thanks to him, some of my worries are lessened.
Thanks man!

Don't think too much..
Maybe it ain't too bad after all.

Whatever it is..
At least I have some idea what I should do from now on.

Anyway, I have been reading this manga
Flunk Punk Rumble (Yankee-kun to Megane-chan/ 不良仔與眼鏡妹)


The series is darn funny.
Try checking it out if you need a good laugh.
I think this is one of the very few comics which I really enjoy very much.

For HEAT fans, first match (not part of the regular season)
will be held on Oct 5, Monday at 7.30am (singapore time)
against the Detroit Pistons.
I'm so gonna watch it.

Okay peeps
Bye!

I better do something about myself first

before i even start thinking about others.

Even if i don't wanna admit..

Life is pretty screwed up now.

Darn.
Slacked again.
Tomorrow must go out and play ball

2K9 gets on my nerves sometimes.
especially when ridiculous moves were made by the CPU
I will always go crazy and bang tables when that happens
but i must control
it's just a game after all -.-"

Just started watching 学警出更
It's way funnier than the 1st series but
the certain parts of the story (changed too much) I don't really like
but still quite nice

Okay.
Gonna keep playing ball from tomorrow onwards.
Bye.

This is my 100th post.
Woots!

Anyway. It's 3.44am now.
Finally I am getting sleepy.
Couldn't sleep just now.. had to listen to music to make myself sleepy.

In any case.. i was looking through my stuffs from secondary school

There was this photo with messages from the CC trainers (seniors)
I read them and those memories just came back.
I suddenly felt that I have the responsibility to help bring the next batch to win another trophy.
Of course with the help of many others

Then I saw the weird birthday card my Sec 3 squad had given to me.
Haha! Geez.. :]
I still remember I was surprised during that time.
It was after training (and that training didn't went well due to lousy attendance)
and some of them just suddenly came up to pass me the card.
Didn't expect them to even know about my birthday.
Haha, again, Thanks guys :]

Okay.
Better get some sleep.
Bye.

*Editted*

Checked out the work place earlier on.
Hmmm.. the manager says that new comers need to attend a training session first.
Oh well..

Finally i will get rid of my long hair.
Wont poke my eye.
Wont be hindrance to me playing ball.
Awesome.. i guess.

Okay.
I'm off.
Playing ball later.. Coolios!


Got this from Syamim's blog.. but i will change it a little.

People often think about "What-if's" more than "What is"
They keep questioning themselves about the possibilities instead of fulfilling the true meaning
They forgot about that first impression that caught their attention
They forgot about that real and true feeling of happiness
Fear. It's something we can all overcome.
Believe in what it is and what was it that made you love

Most importantly, always be optimistic because you will never know when the next chance will be here..



I'm adapting at least
As long as you are fine
I'm happy enough
For once, at least, I've done something correct


3.26am.
Geez. I'm still awake.
Anyway the holidays are finally here.
Oh... right.
Whheeeeee...!

Anyway, i really wanna continue watching shows
but i have to get some sleep.
Tomorrow need to check out the new work place.
Oh well.

In any case.. i will stick to my old schedule.
Work. Play Basketball. Work Out.
Yup.. what i used to do.

Time to catch up with my fitness and basketball skills.
And of course earn money to buy things :]

Arhh.. I can't wait for Monday.
Can have breakfast with Jin Yi, Gwen and Fendy again.
No idea why..
but even though it's just breakfast
I'm happy enough to even hang out with them.
Hehe... They must be feeling so happy now.
Thank me :]

Kay. Got to get some sleep.
Bye!

Before i carry on with my work..
i just can't help but to post some videos up..

Mario Chalmers


Despite being a 2nd round pick
Mario has proved himself to be the "Steal of the Draft".
He averaged 1.95 steals in just his first season,
ranking 1st among rookies, 4th among all players.
Definitely he's got great defense
But.. I feel that he has to improve his offensive skills
and in a way be a better point guard.

Daequan Cook


Cook is probably Heat's best 3-point shooter by far
Winning the 3-point contest has already proven that.
He has a great shooting form.
I probably want to see him more versatile in the next season
meaning more lay-ups and attacking the basket
and of course being as accurate as he is capable of draining Threes

Michael Beasley


Beasley has great potential but he lacks defensive skills.
He hasn't really proved much in the last season
not to the expectation of a 2nd pick at the least.
BUT... he definitely will groom when he's matured more.
(He's only 20 years old now, give him some time)
He hasn't been consistent.
When he's off, he's off.
BUT... When he's good.. He's REAL GOOD.
When he plays well, he really really plays very well.
I hope to see him step up in the next season :]

Arr... I am damn excited for the next season to start
in around a month's time.
Okay. I better do my work now.
Gonna chiong tonight.
Bye.

@
Finally..
I am gonna do my work soon.
haha. Finally.

Been slacking and couldn't get myself to do anything.
Just wanted to have fun and slack.
Oh well...

Gonna watch 1 more episode of Drama before i do my work.
The holidays are finally coming.

I don't have much plans yet..
Just gonna meet up with friends more often..
Work and play basketball.
Like what I did after graduation.
Hopefully i play better again.

I still remember after graduation,
I just work and play.
Did that for 2 straight months.
My basketball improved a lot after that.
Let's just hope it works.

I realized i will always need something to spur me on.
Something to like.. keep my fire burning..
if not.. i will turn into a completely useless and lazy guy.
like for the past 4-5 days where i practically slacked.

I better learn not to be lazy.
It ain't helping me at all :/

Bye.

by the way..
Happy Brithday to Ying Yao and Fatimah! (14th Sept)
and now to Alicia! (today)

3 new former NBA players in the Hall Of Fame.


John Stockton


Never really watched his plays up till now.
Terrific point guard.
All the no look passes and half court passes just wow me so much.


David Robinson


Also didn't take much note of him up till now.
Aka "The Admiral" and came from Navy.
In a way, i guess he was a very discipline player and
that discipline must have been what made him a terrific Center.


Michael Jordan


The mighty Air Jordan.
The player who changed the way people viewed basketball.
From then, the NBA became popular.

One thing that i've noticed..
When you watch Jordan's top 10 plays. It's very much different.
Kobe, Wade, James... they all have a variety of clutch shots or amazing dunks..
Jordan, on the other hand, did difficult and nearly impossible circus shots or layups.
that's probably why he is the greatest of all times.
simply amazing :]

Need to kill my laziness...
arghhh.

Saturday, September 12, 2009 @


Simply awesome.
Must watch man.

Friday, September 11, 2009 @

Watched NINE with IAD peeps yesterday after class.
I really like the story but it could be developed so much more.
my friends all felt that it was a waste of money..
well.. have to agree a little :/
3 out of 5 stars.

After that went to the Farewell party for Naomi.
It was fun.
Oh well, shan't say bye yet.
she's still in Singapore after all.
haha!

There are some things i need to settle.
Some things i need to work on..
hmm... hopefully the one month break can be a good time.

Okay got to go.
Borrow some books and then off to Changi Airport.
Meeting peeps to "study" and chit chat.
Bye.

09. 09. 09.
and submission time is 9am later.
Cool huh

Anyway.. its 5.05 am now.
I only caught about 1+ hour of sleep earlier on.
But i still can cope. no worries.

It's gonna be a long day ahead man..
going out in the noon and then playing ball at night..
better not collapse later on.
haha

some old song. awesome song.

O-Town - All or Nothing

I know when he's been on your mind
That distant look is in your eyes
I thought with time you'd realize it's over, over
It's not the way I choose to live
And something somewhere's gotta give
A share in this relationship gets older, older

You know I'd fight for you but how could I fight someone who isn't even there
I've had the rest of you now I want the best of you I don't care if that's not fair

Cuz I want it all
Or nothing at all
There's nowhere left to fall
When you reach the bottom it's now or never
Is it all
Or are we just friends
Is this how it ends
With a simple telephone call
You leave me here with nothing at all

There are time it seems to me
I'm sharing you with memories
I feel it in my heart but I don't show it , show it
Then there's times you look at me
As thought I'm all that you could see
Those times I don't believe it's right I know it , know it

Don't make me promises baby you never did know how to keep them well
I had the rest of you now I want the best of you it's time to show and tell

Cuz I want it all
Or nothing at all
There's nowhere left to fall
When you reach the bottom it's now or never
Is it all
Or are we just friends
Is this how it ends
With a simple telephone call
You leave me here with nothing at all

Cuz you and I
Could lose it all if you've got no more room
Nowhere inside for me in your life

Cuz I want it all
Or Nothing at all
There's nowhere left to fall
It's now or never

Is it all
Or Nothing at all
When you reach the bottom it's now or never
Is it all
Or are we just friends
Is this how it ends
With a simple telephone call
You leave me here with nothing at all

Bye.


Motivation...
eh..
how to get that...?

Monday, September 7, 2009 @
1.56am now
Finally i managed to start work.
Going to research for places to get my materials later on.

Somehow..
I'm not tired now.

Today is kind of weird for me.
Just totally bland.
Maybe I was too tired..?

I didn't think much.
I wasn't too high.
I wasn't too emo.

I'm... Just normal today.

Somehow. Today feels different.
It's like.. more mature. more sensible.
Weird way of phrasing it huh..
It's just.. questions keep appearing in my mind.
Questions about my uncertainties.
Things i need to give some thoughts about.
Somehow it makes me feel that I'm a grown-up.

Actually.
Ever since poly.. many things changed.
My thinking.. the way i behave.. how i viewed things.. Everything's changed.
Naturally, i do think a lot.
Just that things are more complicated now.. isn't this what adults will have to face?
This is probably the stage where most people my age will feel the same..?

When you think back..
You start to realize many of the stupid things you did.
Still, you will want to do them again.
This is where Responsibility becomes an obstacle.
Things you can no longer do because you have to be responsible.
Simply put it, as of now, we have to be more independent.

Very often i will compare myself..
How I've changed over the years.
How I wished I was still the same.

I used to be the type of person who could hear people's problems out.
As time passed by.. things changed.
I know why.

Because everyone around me are maturing.
They can start solving their own problems.
They no longer require people to help them.
Then again, it isn't too much of a bad thing eh.. I always tell myself.

Just that it feels weird somehow.
Because now you feel like there's nothing much you can do.
There's this feeling of.. uselessness.

There are things which I don't really bother as much as I used to.
Some are good.. Some are bad..
Someone once said something like..
Don't try to be too nice every time.
I pondered over it.
I thought.. what's wrong with that?

Helping people out.. is that something to be considered?
Then again.. this world is pretty ugly.. that's a fact.
It's because there are people who are greedy..
People who are sly..
People who hold bad intentions..

That's why..
Being too nice will never seem to be nice after all.
You can get cheated.. or you can cheat.

I always wonder.
While people in the poor regions are suffering..
Why are we still enjoying life.. ?
Checking out fashion.. having fun..
I used to think this can never be accepted.

Now I realized there's nothing we can do.
Because life has to go on.
Do we stop just because people are suffering on the other end..?
It doesn't make sense right?
Life has to go on. That's the answer.
We don't change so simply for those reasons.
Again.. this is another example of learning not to be too nice.

I have friends who are always happy.
I have friends who tend to be more emotional.
I once told someone before.. I prefer life with ups and downs.

Not saying being happy is bad, nor being sad is good.
Just that.. I feel that life is much more interesting that way.. isn't it?
You lose something.. you gain something..
In the end..
We will still learn something right?

Just like playing a game.. there are always different difficulties.
As you progress, you wish to be the best.
Then again, I would rather be on par with it.
I'd rather win some and lose some.
In that way, things will never get bored right?
Eventually you will learn something.
You learn to face challenges with all you've got.
You learn to be better and better.
You learn the right attitude to face problems.

Okay.. i stop now.

What a long post..
I just needed to get these thoughts out of my head.
Then again, they may be good questions for you to think about..
that is if you understand what i'm writing.
(pardon me, I just think a lot..)

Bye.

Faber Drive - Tongue Tied

Bright cold silver moon
Tonight alone in my room
You were here just yesterday
Slight turn of the head
Eyes down when you said
I guess I need my life to change
Seems like something's just aren't the same
What could I say?

I need a little more luck than a little bit
Cuz every time I get stuck the words won't fit
And every time that I try I get tongue tied
I'll need a little good luck to get me by

I need a little more help than a little bit
Like the perfect one word no one's heard yet
Cuz every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by this time

I stare up at the stars
I wonder just where you are
You feel a million miles away
(I wonder just where you are)
Was it something I said?
Or something I never did?
Or was I always in the way?
(Was it something I did?)
Could someone tell me what to say to just make you stay?

I need a little more luck than a little bit
Cuz every time I get stuck the words won't fit
And every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by

I need a little more help than a little bit
Like the perfect one word no one's heard yet
Cuz every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by this time

I know it feels like the end
Don't want to be here again
And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again
What it takes I don't care
We're gonna make it I swear
And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again
Again

I need a little more luck than a little bit
Cuz every time I get stuck the words won't fit
But every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by

I need a little more help than a little bit
Like the perfect one word no one's heard yet
Cuz every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by this time

I know it feels like the end
Don't want to be here again
And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again

What it takes I don't care
We're gonna make it I swear
And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again

I need a little more luck than a little bit
Cuz every time I get stuck the words won't fit
But every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by

I need a little more help than a little bit
Like the perfect one word no one's heard yet
Cuz every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by this time

I know it feels like the end
Don't want to be here again
And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again

What it takes I don't care
We're gonna make it I swear
And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again


You can get the link to the video below
Colbie Caillat - Fallin' For You

I don't know but
I think I maybe
Fallin' for you
Dropping so quickly
Maybe I should
Keep this to myself
Waiting 'til I
Know you better

I am trying
Not to tell you
But I want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of
Holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

As I'm standing here
And you hold my hand
Pull me towards you
And we start to dance
All around us
I see nobody
Here in silence
It's just you and me

I'm trying
Not to tell you
But I want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of
Holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

Oh I just can't take it
My heart is racing
The emotions keep spinning out

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you

I can't stop thinking about it
I want you all around me
And now I just can't hide it
I think I'm fallin' for you (x2)

I'm fallin' for you

Ooohhh
Oh no no
Oooooohhh
Oh I'm fallin' for ya

I've said so many things.
This and that.
In the end..
I realized I haven't done much.

I'm stuck at that stage.
Probably not knowing what to do..
Hmmm...

If you believe you can, you can.
I'm starting to think in that way lesser and lesser.

Hello.

I think I need to brush up my presentation skills.
Other than that, I know i have to focus for the upcoming assignment.

After class, went back home to collect the new specs.
Then headed over to MBS to see teacher.

At first only saw Zhi Hao there.
We went like what the..?
Then Si Hui, Joel, Yu Xin and Sherwin (Female) joined us.
So we headed into the school to see teacher.

Met Miss Yang first and had a nice but short chat with her.
She's a great teacher as always :]
But sad to hear that the chinese standard of MBS is dropping..
Haiz. Kids are more english nowadays.

Damn unlucky.
I had stomach ache and went to the toilet FOUR TIMES.
Then we waited for Miss Seow to meet us.

After she came, she took us for a tour around most parts of the school..
There are so many changes.. damn alot.
Darn.. we should have been born later.

Changes...
The toilets are so much refreshing and bright.
All basketball courts are under shelter..!
They have a new garden which looks damn awesome.
They have 3 levels for the staff -
1st level for General Office, the other 2 for teachers.
The classrooms are so much more spacious.
... alot more.
In Short... the MBS now is damn awesome.

We left during dismissal time, around 6+
Then we went out to eat at He Ji Bao near Aljunied MRT.
Hui Jun, Benjamin and Yap Yue joined us by then.
After makan, the rest of us went to Tampines to window shop and talk crap.
We left around 11+

Haha it's nice to know that we still chat after so long.. 5 years.
Cool yaw haha!

Even though we may have changed in our looks.. I think most of us are still the same inside.
Maybe I've changed to be more crappy haha!

Okay. I'm off to play NBA2K9
Then I shall go sleep after that.
Bye.


Tuesday, September 1, 2009 @
Gonna meet MBS peeps tomorrow.
Kind of excited.
But i wonder how many will turn up..?
hmm..

Got to go.
Bye.


卢广仲 - 100 种生活

整个世界停止不转动很寂寞
走在海边数着萤火虫好困惑
想要的生活怎么有一百种
不想掉进这深深漩涡

整个海洋摆动柔软地举起我
孤单给我自由犹豫得好感动
想要的生活怎么有一百种
该怎么走谁来告诉我 wow

每当我背对星空
抱着地球
发现自己其实脆弱不敢说

当我背对星空
孤独摸索
爱情渐渐萎缩我猜不透

无边的宇宙哪里有我想要的生活

整个海洋摆动柔软地举起我
孤单给我自由犹豫得好感动
想要的生活怎么有一百种
该怎么走谁来告诉我 wow

每当我背对星空
抱着地球
发现自己其实脆弱不敢说

当我背对星空
孤独摸索
爱情渐渐萎缩我猜不透

无边的宇宙哪里有我想要的生活

每当我背对星空
抱着地球
发现自己其实脆弱不敢说

当我背对星空
孤独摸索
爱情渐渐萎缩我猜不透

无边的宇宙哪里有我想要的生活
我那一百种要在很就很就以后才会懂
我一百种生活

Feel like I've changed.
I am no longer my old self.
...
i have no idea what to do next.
