I'm back here after 4 years. In many ways much has changed yet in some ways, nothing at all has changed.

I am still stuck in this education system as i have been for the past 10 years. I am still here in hwachong, though in a different section. My life is still very much academic based, I am still who i am.

But here i am in j1 when the last time i posted was when i was in sec 1. Frankly i have read not read through my past posts these 4 years, perhaps for the same reason as that of everyone. I read my previous posts and feel like stupid writing that at that time. But time passes and present becomes past and who knows, 4 years later looking back at this post i may be ashamed of the present state i am in. this is just human isn't it.

In many ways i have changed as well, in my goals for life and how i see things.

The above line sounds so retarded and so cliche but whatever who still reads this space. Yea except you, yea YOU.

2 goals in life, to be happy and to be a good person. Frankly these goals are what everyone harbors, but getting caught up with the pace of life, getting stuck in the shit that everyone faces each day in work and in school, you lose sight of what you are actually living for.

In the past few years perhaps I do not mug as fervently for tests, to some i may seem nonchalent. It isn't because i don't care, but i recognize that life is much more than these academic assessments. Sticking on with the topic of education, i have come to question what education really means and what it is meant to achieve.

For me, it is but a means for me to gain knowledge, make a mark in the society and be happy through it all. Not just happy at the eventual achievements if there exists any, but happy through the process of gaining knowledge, of learning.

Yet so often far from providing happiness, education is associated with stress, tears, unhappiness, which in itself is ironic, since one studies in hope of a better and happier life, and yet one chooses to suffer through the process of it. But as humans we never seem to get it do we?

Does education equate to learning? I recently got to learn of this striking statement that "The one thing that has hindered my learning in life was my education". Ironic on a superficial level, yet deeply profound and perhaps depressing as one truly understands what it implies. Is our education system really that perfect? Is it really doing to us what it CLAIMS it is actually doing. All educational institutes claim to want to groom leaders, outstanding people, individuals who would make a mark in the society. But perhaps a comment i chanced upon recently provides a more realistic summary of what education today really means. "The aim of our education system is merely to develop the next generation of mindless drones, because no society would survive without having the majority of its people at the bottom." Isn't that the truth? How many leaders do you want in a society? If each and everyone of us are to be leaders, who the freak are the leaders supposed to lead? Looking back at how our education system teaches us to learn ever so mechanically, to conform, aren't we closer to the prospect of mindless drones than leaders who make a difference?

Moving on, many people claim that school life is filled with backstabbers, betrayals, and there are BFFs too, THE clique and so on so forth. Perhaps it is true, perhaps you are just thinking too complicatedly. I'm in my 11th year of education now and i have yet to meet a bad person. Don't tell me it is because i am lucky, but it really is because i recognize that there are 2 sides to everything, no one is truly bad. And neither is anyone truly good. This i realized in myself recently too, i have no ill intentions in anything i do and i have never intended to hurt anyone, but because of the way things go some people may bear the wrong impressions of me. Am i writing coherently?

And i am still turned off my emo kids, screw those facebook statuses of yours seriously. Strangely enough in this age being happy and contented seems to be a crime, only by proclaiming your sorry state, how hard life is for you, how things never go to plan, how you are a failure, are you considered cool and so on. This is retardedly stupid. For one it is pathetic to see how 16 17 years old trying to show the world how their life sucks, their fmls and so on. Yea, its hard on you failing a test, screwing up a performance, but at least you had the chance to take the test and perform. There are people starving in Africa and you dun freaking see them shouting fml to the world. Stop infusing yourself with a sense of self worth by posting those emo status and seeing the comments encouraging you cause srsly its lame.

I lead a happy life and i am freaking proud of it.

I still treasure the ones i love as much as ever. Which is why i have not lost my temper with my loved ones for the last few years. Except to maybe sis, and for this i am sorry sis.

Who still reads this space? Perhaps no one will ever unless you google my name, or perhaps you got here via an extensive network of links from blogs and one thing led to another and you are here.

Either way, szeyuan 4 years on from j1, is still pretty much the same as much as he has changed. But szeyuan of 2010 has his aims set out right now and hopefully four years later, i can say that in the process i have indeed lived a happy and rightful life.

because thats how life should be. :D

last post...21st of May...-.-'''

2006-08-11T21:43:00.000-07:00

life's been good... ...

June-- Had a one month break with no or limited interuptions between... need i talk further?

July-- In which my birthday fell on one of a day among the 31 days other days in the month, got a soccer ball. yeah... finally one of my own :)

August-- National day! which was 3 days ago. and in which 3 days after national day, i am right here writing... -_-'''

Now-- exams, exams... EL gone Geog gone, Literature gone......dadada...

haix... wad's there left to write about.... life has been fine but boring... except for the few hours after school in which i come out for a breather... on the field...with a ball...
was punished yesterday but Bian jiang for not bring the article on chopsticks... so spent 40 minutes standing outside... its just an article, need you do this... why can't we just share with our partners and learn something...don't you know that i am so "enthusiastic in learning", at times...(yeah right)...only at times..of course....

there's this discussion going on about the use of standared English and Singlish. i would not like to comment much on it, but...don't you find it ironic that there lies such a profound explanation to this supposedly inferior and simple language, Singlish... have a look http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singlish

hello

2006-05-21T01:33:00.000-07:00

hi there, haven't been posting for quite a while. yah, thats right, laziness again. i had my sabbatical week recently and my sabbatical was science eureka, together with the majority of the class.as you can see, recently i screwed up my blogskin, but thank god, kezheng says that he had found a solution. yah right, even my pathetic comments section is gone. what crap...

science eureka was all right, but the biology section was totally boring. i screwed up my last experiment together with chern yuen and goh id. i enjoyed the chemistry part, the lazer one, and, well, the carolina(however you spell it), though not as much comparatively. yah, i had the street soccer competition on wednesday? somewhere around there, and though my team thrashed the sec 2, i played badly. we were one-nil down at first in the first half and things only changed for the better when alvin came on. he was totally incredible... bing lin was also great with a wonderful volley, resulting in a final score of 3-1. :)

was revising(or rather learning) my science a few moments ago. everything was fine till i came to the small intestine. i was like huh? huh? huh? haix, AT LEAST i made it to the small intestine. shall continue later on.

i just have this sudden urge of playing soccer now. but i can only play when friday comes. even then thers only a 50% chance. Thats cause friday = PE = most of time table tennis. what crap can? i had like only played table tennis twice in my whole life. and i don't even know the rules. i would rather just grab a chapteh and play outside while others are table tennising(continueous form). i want soccer so much...

another 3 days and 2 tests are right up. like huh? why put tests on the 2nd last day of school. for your info, i have been like having tests since 19th april, which is exactly 1 month and 2 days ago. 1 month and 2 days of tests, how crappy is that!?!? tests seemed to be the bane of my life in my primary school days. every night before tests, i would mug like crazy. but thats only 4 days, or okay, 5 days inclusive of higher chi. if i were to mug like that now, i might be dead before tests were even over. now thinking, my mugging last time didn't seem to help me much though. my sci teacher just kept nagging us to read our science guide when i practically knew it inside out alreaday. well, thats of course after reading it over a dozen times. i really don't get it why teachers keep bugging us to revise the same old things when we already knew them. perhapes if we spent the time revising the same old things playing some games instead, to stimulate brain activity, our results could have been better. but things are different now. now, we barely have enough time to finish studying (studying, not revising) our topics when tests arrive, much less some needless mugging...but even so, some games might still stimulate the brain to work better. so...

alright, shall end here now. mugging, useful mugging of sciece may continue now. come, wish me luck that i will know what i am reading later on. lets keep our fingers crossed....xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

haven't been posting lately due to laziness. shucks...i just found out the max ace u can get for blogging for the whole year is only 3, a vast difference from what i previously thought, that is 9. haiz...

things are getting on rather smoothly lately, especially with the getting back of results. well, my results are something to cheer about.(beams proudly) lol... i indeed improved vastly from the 1st term.

well, just a short post here. really short one. just to let you know that i am still alive.

2006-04-27T06:35:00.000-07:00

well, the day today in class was quite tense, everyone wasn't in a good mood, flaring up easily...perhapes it is partially due to the fact that there are 2 tests today, and at that, they are english and literature. eng again, haix. just hate it. slacking quite a lot today, my main accomplishments were just mainly reading an hour of story book(operation book worm), practising piano and...blogging? anyway, i aren't going to have any tests till next week, that is geography test. besides, i have generally studied it already, so...

Alvin made an interesting but most oftenly true statement today. "i do not like this because my grandma likes it. things that she likes don't suit me," this is sadly true most of the time due to the generation gap. however, the way it is phrased is just...unique. i like it because she doesn't...interesting

going to read for maybe 20 more mins later before preparing for bed. ha! slacking night...:) :=) |:=) |:+) |:+=) L:+=)

yeah! the week is coming to an end

2006-04-20T06:07:00.000-07:00

yah, thats right, the week's coming to an end, and tests are coming. i have a biology test tomorrow and after preparing concept maps, my file, and completing most of the revision, i am here blogging! -_- had a mathematics test today and i just hope to get an A1...

did something, which i felt was bad, today. i got Chunqi punished during eng lesson and he had to stand on a single tile for a whole hour. arrgh! i really didn't meant to harm him, at least not in such a cruel way. well, it all happened in the morning when he was playing some games on his HP. some of us tried disturbing Chunqi and all of a sudden, he swung his arms out and pinched my......yah, thats about it, but he did it...twice... and during eng lesson, i just made a casual comment about it and chunqi was...gone... felt guilty after that though, and i found my self wondering if i actually did the right thing...

test tests tests, it is raining tests...but heck! i've my umbrella with me...though i feel as prepared as last term, which i too felt pretty prepared. though i FELT prepared, last term was a disaster. so this term? but anyway, just trying my best... ;) not gonna get stressed out from this, though i had suffered a sudden loss control of my temper and actions just a few days ago. it is during these times, when i get so fed up and fustrated, that i discover that inside me, there is a wide range of COLOURFUL vocab too... ;)

watched a video about Morgan today, which was so funny, not the video of course, but the reaction of my class. everyone was like --> *_*zZz. no, not sleeping, but just "gong". i like Morgan, i mean he is so cool. imagine calling all the presidents of banks in Singapore together, be it POSSB or whatsoever, and lock them up in a room, or just take a river taxi on Singapore river and go to and fro and to and fro and to and fro, forcing them to come up with an idea to save Singapore from...anything. how cool is that!?!? or what about having billions of assets in your name and having people think you are god, cool? when i reach that level someday(thats if i could) i would call all principals together and...*evil laughter*...
oh come'on, just joking, i am or rather i WOULD be a very "ren2" leader ok... ;)

blank

2006-04-13T06:27:00.000-07:00

arrgh! so irritated. just typed half a post and due to some foreseen difficulties, had to close all internet windows. i was very certained i pressed the ctrl+c button and now, when i press ctrl+v, where the heck did it fly to!?!anyway, to the main topic. the RGS compre planned at the last 2 periods made my day a suffer, at least for most of the times...though there were "fun" moments too...

that was during biology lesson and we were learning cells. arrgh, our cells seemed to have evolved as we approach secondary schools. just 2 circles inside one big circle. now much more things pop put from no where, theres a rod here, theres the mitochondrion there. didn't quite comprehand what was thaught, neither do i expect the class to. nevermind, i shall read at home and HOPEFULLY, i may get a better understanding. but yah, no gurantee i will understand what i am reading. some of the things taught when...
"inside the cell you have the necleus(yah, thats familiar),and in side the nucleus you have your nucleolus and it also contains exactly 46 chromosomes except the sperm cell(never heard before but still generally OK). Along the length of each chromosome is a series of chemical structures called genes.(er...ok)The chemical that forms genes is called DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)(ei...huh).the DNA is made up of a long chain of nucleotides.(nuclo..wad?)A nucleotide is made up of a 5-carbon sugar molecule joined to a phosphate group (-PO3) and an organic base.(wad'ya saying?)the 5-carbon sugar is made up of:
Adenine (A)
Thymine (T)
Cytosine (C)
Guanine (G)"

the lesson was mainly like that. i think you could guess the faces of us. but we still had great fun though. the joy of learning comes from the laughter u get in your classrooms ;)

not exactly in a great mood now at this precise moment

2006-04-12T03:45:00.000-07:00

as the title spells it, i am not in a good mood now, probably because of the fact that i just woke up from my afternoon slumber. well finding, or at least trying to find, my file yesterday, i discovered, oh great, i left my file in the CO room. and byu everyright, i should be able to get it back on my practice day, which is on this friday. and, you guessed it, good friday-_-||| arrgh, and to add to my agony, there is this certain RGS compre tomorrow which is making me so fustrated, or "sian" as you call it.

well, i do not normally post in a bad mood, yah, that explains the lack of entries. but i thought, since i am free now, why not...ok, this sentence doesn't make any sense -_-||| tried my C++programing code just now but the one i have at home doesn';t seem to be similar to that of the school, and to think it was recommended by my IS teacher. theres a street soccer league coming up in hwa chong and just hope to be in part of it. haven't been playing soccer lately.

i pretty much enjoy secondary school life in hwachong due to the freedom but yet enriching education they provide ast the same time. i en joy practically all the subjects...including...
Math, History, Science, Geography, Chinese(its acceptable), Literature, Infocomm is okay too, and if you were expecting me to include English too, sorry to dissapoint you. English isn't for me, please...

i prefer a post without tile so i shall not have a title,,.

2006-04-05T06:05:00.000-07:00

shucks, haven't ben blogging lately mainly because i was lazy to, but now that i am blogging once, please give me your comments.(doesn't make sense, heck...just comment will do)

well, i had my projects day preliminary judging today and i guess i did fairly well, in a sense that there weren't much questions araised and that there weren't any extremely negative comments. i then proceeded to LT4 after the session in the computer lab ended. there, i was punished early into session, well, it was a blessing in disguise actually. i mean not the punishment but because i was punished early and thus need not suffer the terrible fate of putting up your socks and shoes on your head while you stood, a punishment totally humiliating, disgracing and inhumane...but at the very least, it was all a necessity...

then we had our CIP project, "a million lotus" or something like that, i through it, i chanced upon a deep realisation of myself......i am not suited for origami(spelt like that)? there isn't such a word in the dictionary too though, but, u know what i mean) there was no lesson for the day as it was projects day.-_-|||

in my personal opinion, as chunqi had said, i feel that the projects day judging is totally meaningless. "judging"... as the saying goes,"if u judge a person, you will have no time to love them". then, how will the teachers find time to love us...-_-|||

yah, tianhao has recently been defeated by Javan, much to the delight of his previous victims. now, wahahahaha, he has finally gotten a taste of his own medicine. the way javan defeated tianhao was in magnificant style. left hand chop, right hand another one, right leg KICK and tada, bullseye! but strangely, now, after writing all this, i pity TianHao...:)

i have been playing chapteh lately in school but....it is no longer the same as before in primary school days.where had the exhilaration of just finding a normal shuttlecock which can be doubled up as a chapteh gone to?since when has winning or losing become such an important factor in just a normal recess game, such to the extent that disputes happen over it. since when has the winning mentality become so great that the game can't even be sustained for just a few kicks before the chapteh lands again? and after you had won it, you look back and realise, its just a game...chapteh isn't as fun as it used to be anymore, especially when the desire to win is so great. as i look back to the primary school days, i begin to cherish the little time spent in the hall, kicking a shuttlecock around, which many would dismiss as a stupid game...

now, i shall end my post with a famous proverb. i trust everyone knows about the saying "Silence is Golden", but this in actual fact is actually only half of the original proverb but yet, little people know about it...
the following line actually reads,
"But noise is platinum..."

-SzeYuan-

exhausted...

2006-03-24T05:40:00.000-08:00

just finished my final touches own my webpage and uploaded it on FTP after much, much difficulty. going to do my ACE project, probably later in the night before zZZZ.
its gonna be a long day tomorrow, just like every saturday...

went to chinese orchestra today and played a ....... tune? arrgh, hack... anway, i seem to be working harder in CO than before. the times when i could go for 2 hours and practice for 20 minutes. ahhhh...the good old days.

had to be "tour guide" for the class around the school without really going round the school introducing it but SEEM to go round the school although i aren't manually going round the school. in others words,
i introduced hwa chong as if i was a tour guide in class today. that was for ACE. think i got 3 marks...sigh...

i aren't going to do the list out the continued analysis of my class today but while...i just changed my mind. just to list out some that comes to my mind

Eugene
Quiet guy and he is .. not talkative? yah, any way, a nice fellow who sits behind me.

Yi Chao
A nice fellow at times when u treat him the right way. had a considerabaly pleasent time with him during CO while practising

Wen Shen
Tall guy in canoeing. was quiet in the beginning of term but improved his talking skills over time and now, .........he talks more.

Chen Yuan
our dear math rep who is also extremely pro in math, considering the fact that he got a platinum for SMOPS. not a stuck up guy as many of you would probably be thinking based on his intelluctual abilities. instead, it is the complete different thing. he's a malaysian scorer from ..while..malaysia..duh

Tian Hao
complete sicko. his pervetic thoughts which are mostly just spoken out and his equally, if not, worse actions are just pure concrete evidence to my statements. attacked on my ----- for about 5 times already for this term. once i walked past him and he just grabbed mt butt! in conclusion, he is a downright pervertic sicko. stay away from him if you can. period.
come on, just for laughs. just laugh. "whahahahaha" its just for laughs though it is just concrete facts. anyone who has been abused by him may feel free to post your traumatic experience on the comments section.

thats all for the week. goodbye!!!!!!!

Analysis of my class

2006-03-14T22:45:00.001-08:00

alright, once again, i am back!! not from any where though, but back here blogging!!
-.- ok, i decided to do an anlysis of my class males, duh, sice everyone is doing it...lets just join in the fun...lets start in some random order(not in index number as i will be the 1st in this case)

Runze
well he is a friendly guy and to date, haven't seen him blow his top.

Nigel
was one of the first friend i knew when i just started sec 1, due to the fact that he sits just in front of me. has a unique hairstyle ;)

Dion
got to know him just recently...(ashamed of myself) he has the cute face that makes u wanna pinch. but of course, can't be compared to wei xiang's

Ting yit
got to now him quite early in the year. his sister is in the same class as my sister! what a coincidence ;) a nice fellow and a well-mannered one too

Ernest
has this chubby face and makes some very cute sound effects. our dear english rep...

Bing lin
a handsome guy and got to know him quite recently too, or did i know him quite early?? anyway i know him... friendly guy too and does not like to be in I-spark

Jit woon
keeps calling me......

Hong wei
previously thought he was unfriendly but as time went by, found that he is in actual fact quite friendly and cute too... has a relaxed personality

Soo wee
plays maple and is our dear chairman. a responsible fellow and friendly too.

Marcus
our dear treasurer and by the way, i remember i still owe him $30. hmmmmmmm

Ke zheng
our dear chi rep and has a fun personality too.

Brolin
cute guy and and especially enthsiastic when it comes to cheering;) handsome in a way, too

Javan
a smart fellow, and is quite friendly. always enthusiastic in helping his friend but due to his high intellectual abilites which results in sophisticated explanations, most of us will just go "huh?"

sze yuan(ME)
sporty guy and a friendly fellow too. loves to help his friends, is well-mannered, good-tempered, handsome fellow, enthusiastic in learning, has a fun personality and responsible. besides, he loves to lend a helping hand to strangers and is truthful too. aside from these, he is also neat in his work and hands in his work puntually. Optimistic, tidy in his dressing and forgiving are just some of his many other characteristics. most importantly though, he is often praised as being Modest.

thats all for today. i will continue with the rest some other day.

P.S.
missed bout an important characteristic of Sze yuan, he loves to lie...

BACK....

2006-03-08T01:37:00.001-08:00

ok! i am back from camp, whoots! like finally...>.<

had camp at 2 seperate sites, namely jurong garden AND home team adventure center. blogging the whoole camp will probably bore u to death, thus, i shall just list out some main points...

some numbers first...

18 was the number of times my friend cried (really! he's my friend...)
5 was the number of times my friend relieved himself, where u have to squat....
4 am was the time i woke up, only to discover a leg across my legs
11.30 am was the time we had our lunch! whoots! great food...
5 km was the distance between 2 sites
and...
1 broom is enough to scar you...

lets start with jurong gardens. it is a rather small place and a dirty one at that too. had some games over there which included
1)Building a bridge----an activity that was SUPPOSED to build the team and relationships between team mates better. but well, it was just SUPPOSED to do so. supposed...
2) War games--game which involved 2 seperate sides having sort of a water fight but i weren't clear what i was supposed to do though. just keep running, but where to?? it generally achieved its aim of allowing team mangement to take place.

jurong garden served great food and had a nice toilet, one which had a nice mouse inside its garbage bin...

the following day after spending a day at jurong garden, we treked to HTNS(home team NS). it wasn't very far though with a distance of only 5km between both sites. we finished the walk in about 1 and a half hours.

HTNS
we had 2 activities here, namely
1)west city hunt--learnt little from it, but had great fun walking. we walked to west mall, no, near westmall, and bukit batok swimming complex?? erm, think so.
2)obstacle course--nothing much to say though, but it really brought the team together.

personally feel that it was a much better place than jurong garden and it served great food too. there was plenty of colourful language that could be heard from the camp. there were words starting from all kinds of alphabets(thats wide variety) too...

thats about it, nothing more to say now...ok, just FYI, i am blogging now after coming back from MOELC. i went there, only to discover that my class was canceled.
finding myself getting affected from outsiders' views. I'm from iSpark, so what!?!?!?!

best wishes to Bill...

got back my results..finally

2006-03-02T05:02:00.000-08:00

wow...miracles DO happen...

erm, my results were obviously not satisfactory, or rather not up to my expectations..oh well

yeahness, i had 4 A1s, and one in english! OMG..in english, i can't even believe it. how long has it been scince i scored an A* in my english!?! quite some time indeed. probably stretching to P5? or P4? ok, forget it, anyway, i had an A1 for eng! math, history and sci were also A1s, but the others were...erm...

i shall not talk about other subjects, but i will now take some time to talk about my literature-----B4. arrgh! i shouldn't had gotten a B4 for my literature...i love literature you know..whahaha, really. because i love to crap;) intelligent crap you call it. whahaha. different from real craps;) but it does depends whether intelligent crap comes out or otherwise from me. yah, it depends on me :) so i shall crap intelligently next term for mt literature. i desire so much for an A1 in literature...

and now to geography--the root to all failures! yah, i failed with the majority, with 14 others n my class ;) erm, nothing to talk about geography actually...

and finished school at 12 today due to the good A level results. yeahness!!gonna have soccer for PE tomorrow, oh well, finally. its soon going to be the end of the term, why not have a flashback since tests are over, leaving me with extra time.

1st day of school, errr, can't really remember what happened...try harder...yah! we had a so called welcoming parade for the sec 1s, quite useless actually.what followed were consortium camp, er.....cross country which i got a badge! but where did i put it?....and had first consortium assembly, 1st time i got scolded my consortium head

back then...
she was giving out some prizes when my name was called..
"ANG XI YAN..ANGXIYAN!!!WHOEVER YOU ARE PLEASE COME OUT NOW TO COLLECT......"
after much delay, i went up, received my cert and a earful of scolding for coming uo late....my name is "ang sze yuan"please...

not in the mood to continue anymore...factors that affect craping efficiency include my mood too...kkaes, good bye...

its finally friday>>>>

2006-02-24T05:23:00.000-08:00

yup, thats right, friday's here. have finished most of the tests and haven't exactly scored well on average..sigh
but know that i do know the format, i believe i'll do better in the following tests.. com'on, keep a positive attitude...smile....I WILL DO BETTER IN FOLLOWING TESTS,AND I AM ONE WHO HONOURS MY PROMISES.(("v"))

enough of tests..now to my EP3.aka.CCA. had a 2 hour practice session in which practiced 20 minutes. could had done nothing if not for me asking my senior what exactly am i supposed to do here..rot??(of course, i did not say this..paraphrase....)

had a 2.4km run today, in which i had to run 6 rounds around the track. could had run 7 rounds if not for soo yee's reminder. yi chao's back...

had i talk with him during our wait for the bus at the bus stop and found that u weren't exactly mean or whatsoever, just spend a little time to try to understand what he thinks and how he feels and probably things would change for the better. if anyone out there doesn't know who yi chao is, just drop by swordzdevil.blogspot.com and you will roughly know who he is. i passed my infocomm studies!!! SEE, MIRACLES DO HAPPEN...

Beware of tian hao and chunqi, if possible, avoid going too near to them. Intentional accidents can happen anywhere, anytime. If there is really a need to approach them, take good care of your _ _ _ _. Call an ambulance to be on stand by too just to be safe.........Just take good care of your _ _ _ _.

whats the point.........

2006-02-18T21:55:00.002-08:00

ok, i would like to thank those who commented on my blog.

the day before, i watched the liverpoool vs man utd match. quite a boring match, albeit it wasn't a draw. ok, man utd loss, and i aren't happy about it.....feeling neutral at the moment.....

if anyone out here still doesn't know it, i AM A MAN UTD FAN. surprisingly, as a man utd fan, i do not feel any sense of sadness due to the fact that my team had lost, but, all this might be different if alan smith hadn't broken his leg in the final minutes of the match...it was a serious injury, one that would probably rule him out from the rest of the season. i admire the team spirit man utd had showed, saying they would work even harder to win the league cup for smith. hopefully, this incident would spur man utd on..

ok, to the main topic, just taking some time off after finding out that there isn't any test the following day. was browsing through some of my friends' blogs before this and realised how serious females' mood swings were. well, not that i hadn't realised it before, but my belief had been strenghtened even more by now. had several tests the previous week. i could manage most of them except infocomm studies. performed really badly. not that i didn't study, but whats the point in doing so, i did not even understand what i was reading about...thus, it came as no surprise that i got 3 mistakes in the first page alone which consisted of 5 questions.

5 tests down! 3 more to go!

had soccer for PE on friday, wasn't exactly the best game, but it was all right. :) went for chinese orchestra on friday, yu qian weren't there. ok, CO aren't as bad as i thought, based on the very fact that there were only 1 practice a week and it lasted for only 2 hours for ME! yeahness...

signing off now..

TesTs

tests are coming and ...........some are over too. please leave a comment whenever you drop by, can??please. its as if i am speaking to the wall. 1 comment for my last post, pathetic ! a simple "hi"willl do and i would greatly appreciate that. please....

ARRGH! fed up with my blog.

having an english test tomorrow, the subject i _ _ _ _the most. oh yah, mr quak passes by here too right? i don't think i willl get beyond 21, or i will get a 21 at most. sigh....discovered the interest in literature for me, but the _ _ _ _for languages seem to have become more obvious in my secondary school life. languages hasn't been subjects i prefered since the past.

just a random post, nothing in mind actually, just useless thoughts that are floating about in my head...coming to hwa chong is indeed very different from primary school life. at times, i feel just like a little fish swimming right in the middle of the vast sea, apprehensive about things and at times, unclear of what is actually going on......sigh.....

PLEASE, DO COMMENT ON MY BLOG WHEN YOU HAVE THE TIME. MY BLOG IS LIKE SO DEAD...........

..back to the routine..

everything is back to normal, after that 4 day break chinese new year had brought along with..SiGh.....
i had assembly today, a whole 2 hours! once a week, every week, every month.....the session today was slightly better than that of others. just finished posting my comment on the discussion board which hopefully will get me some ACE points. the comment wasn't short .........i spent about 40 minutes on it, something like an essay. speaking about essays, i received my short story back today! same as before, STILL 20 marks...
had japanese today too, and i had spelling. i improved by 50%! i got 2/5 the previous time and i scored 3/5 this time. haha, yah, its lame.............
was thinking how it would be like if what i did was all perfect and all i had were 100s, surprisingly, the thought sent a shudder down my spine.......then i thought, what would i be doing then when this comes........this is scary..the thought of not doing anything and knowing everything you can imagine, regardless of whether it was small or big,IS SCARY.....

really

it is scary

i would rather stick with what i am now, not knowing everthing but at least something, not doing nothing but something. life would be much better.......than the FICTIONAL FUTURE(or thought, or whatever u wish to call it..)

u might have noticed that i had changed the title of my blog(though most probably u wouldn't but would now naturally turn and have a look),this is so as after visiting some of the blogs, i realised that most of them had the same title"my life". so, i decided to be unique..... :)

chinese new year WAS here and IS gone

2006-01-30T23:37:00.001-08:00

chinese new year was here and it is gone just in the blink of an eye. now, i here blogging, after spending the past 4 days in malaysia, is still wondering where my chinese new year is now... it all seemed like a dream, and after i opened my eyes this morning, i am once again back into the reality world. 4 days gone in a flash...
it had been a rather eventful chinese new year. lots of things happened, both good and bad, or should i just say unfortunate? ok, i started my chinese new year early on friday. i when into malaysia and got to my grandmother's house at about 7 pm. i then started barbecuing!! had lots of fun and slept earlyt at 12am. ok, this was only the beginning.
my cousins and relatives came the next day, about 20 of them. ate at a restaurant which served food of MODERATE quality but the sequence was all wrong. they served the yu sheng first followed by the cereal prawn O.o. the yam or something was next, and then sharks fin! gosh!
sharks fin was the forth dish!! what followed was things that you would not want to know, so i should skip them. went home and got red packets!! i then played at my cousins house and slept at about 3.30am.
the next day, i went to play billard,pool,snooker, or whatever you call it. played for the first time!!!! it was quite fun, but equally hard to master too. some things happened later on which i would not like to elaborate on the night passed in the blinking of an eye and i slept at about 3am. the next day which was the day before i am here writing was quite boring as almost all of my cousins had returned back home to singapore. something memorable was the playing of soccer in the evening....with a dog!! my grandma's dog. he was quite excited at first but grew tired later on...
this is roughly an overview of my chinese new year. for more information, please visit my sister's blog at 92minutes.blogspot.com.

cny-probably the best season in the world(to me at least)

2006-01-26T11:21:00.000-08:00

hi there, had not been blogging for the past 10 days or so. so, chinese new year is just round the corner!! yeah!! well, i am already in the festive mood. for this week. had nothing much to say about. ok, i had a literature and a chinese compo test today. it was relatively.....fine. had a class gathering on saturday the 21st. played some soccer with my friends from primary 6. used the field for the 1st time in almost 4 years after a nod from the principle. earlier on, before i am right here blogging,i had a chat with someone on msn whom i THOUGHT knew me but his or her identity still remains unknown to me.

me: hi, who are you???
the unknown: sze yuan right,i am your ass.monitor
me: ass monitor....
me: do we have such a post???
me:ok,: tell me your name maybe i will remember....
the unknown: which school are u from??
me: hwa chong
the unknown: sorry
the unknown is now Offline[10:27:18 PM]
me: .............

her nickname was actually NYGH rocks or something. does it mean that she thought that i was a girl!??! she/he did not know i am in hwa chong though she/he knew my name??!?! i guess that she must had saw my name and email address on somewhere, maybe a class list, and matched the name and email address to the wrong gender or school. and to make this clear, my class does not even have an ass monitor!!ok, this is more and more like literature, PEEP....
DEAR UNKNOWN, please make your status known if you by any chance chance upon this blog so as to enlighten the still unclear me. this willl aid me tremendously in.............. understanding whatever it is that is unknown to me about you. anyway, just proclaim your indentity.

thats all for now, goodbye..

YAWN....tired day....

2006-01-18T06:44:00.000-08:00

ok, just finished my work. well, today was a long day, came back at 630 and reached home at 710. had to write a short story on ..........ok, too lazy to say. anyway, i was supposed to write a short story and i had so much to write about that i had to write a relatively long piece of work. then when i was about to finish writing, mr quek said, normally, those essays that are too long do not get high marks.... stunned....gosh........
wanted to play soccer during recess but did not get a chance to. seniors were playing=i do not want to get involved. ok, lame...the lessons after recess were fine, neither too extreme on both sides of the negative-positive scale. and then, after school, we had the individualised research studies(IRS) briefing, in which two sec 2 seniors presented their works which got to the finals. and then, after this, i intended to play soccer again. one again, seniors were playing at the street soccer court, i turned to the field, only to see a group of abput 25 pupils chasing a ball. imagine that, all chasing around the field for a ball. if not that i saw that they were using their legs to kick the ball, i might had mistaken that as a game of catching.O.o
had 3rd language and had listening. the front part was filled with supposedly crap to all the students........ ok, that were instructions....in japanese. miraculously, i got only one wrong!! i did make some guesses though, but they were intelligent guesses. i went back home after japanese and ate, did home work, watched tv(entertaiment u see),and then home work again.
ok, this is roughly what i did today. going to sleep soon..bye!

random posts, hahaha

2006-01-13T19:42:00.002-08:00

hihi, here again, once again. this week had been a rather fast one. probably due to the hari raya holiday and the one day consortium camp, so i had only 3 working days. well, any one who passes by here can please comment?? okok, i know this blogskin is like so ugly, but will find time to change it. getting used to this new hci environment, and the teachers here are also very nice. hope it remains like that for the whole year. the LAN in hci is so cool. EMB, FTP, IVLE, VLE, etc. WoW, so cool. i have an essay and chi wk sheets for home work. while, i guess its still ok compared to the later part of the year. and some news, i had been elected monitor. while, i have some mixed feelings about it. should i by happy, should i be sad? ok, guess i should let nature take its course. wahahaha. i ran 1.6km yesterday, and finished it in 8min and 39sec. well, improvement from p6, but i do not know how i can manage 2.4 km. 6 rounds, gosh, even at 4 rounds i was like.............6 rounds???/ seems that if i fail, my days will be like hell. ok, thats exaggerating, or at least my pe lessons will be like hell, running 2.4km every lesson while others are playing soccer?!?!? argh...i MUST pass the 2.4km no matter how. well, pass will do, but to do that, i must sure improve, but how?????

erm..my day at camp???

2006-01-12T03:55:00.000-08:00

well, todaywe had our one day consortium camp which was quite...er......ok. in fact, it it was fun. i was like so tired in the morning that i did not want to get involved in anything, but things changed some time later. we had the ice breakers early in the camp, which was boring. i do think we should not have it between only our class but it should be between the whole consortium. anyway, we would have enouh time to interact with our class later right?? but that can't be said for sure for the other classes. then we did........er......yah, the teambuilding games. we had some really fun activities like tug of war and dog and bone. for the tug of war, not to boast, we won quite easily. we needed only like <1min to win. while, it was partially due to our teamwork but most importantly, it was our sizes, or should i say the opponants' sizes that benefitted as the most. overall, the teambuilding games, did reach its objective, which is to bind the team together. but for certain parts of it, it seemed more like team splitting games. hahah. well, later we had our amazing race, in the school compound of course. wel, the amazing race was like it did not have a certain way of playing it. why do i say that????ok, the activities are at each station was planned by ourselves or shuld i say by our buddies??/anyway, u can influence your buddy to get the activity u want or you can just say a stupid idea and he will just take it. take for example when we were at a station, we were required to make out an activity using balloons and ping pong balls. one of my classmates suggested stuffing a ping pong ball into the balloon and blowing the balloon up(chances are that he was trying to be funny) and our buddy just accepted it. but surprisingly, our group managed it! we had a buddy who was like..er...not fond of running. while the whole group was running, he would simply lag behind. but nevermind, because the good thing was that we came in second for the amzing race! and the bad thing was that we were 2nd from behind-_-. the good thing was that we were not last! and the bad thing was that the other half of my class's group did not finish 1st. but last of all, and the most important thing of all, the good thing was that i had fun!!! ok, this indeed is important, but most important was that through this exercise, i do know my classmates better. i really appreciate the time and effort the sec 2 senios had spent to make this camp a success. so from the bottom of my heart, i would like to say a big thank you tp all the seniors!!!!!!!(ok, this is mushy, but bear with it, please)
