Sorry for the delay. Nothing much to post about anyway, and not many people to read...
Results? I did survive. Not my expected grade, but at least only Chinese failed. Shall aim to improve...after the hols.
Life during holidays? Kind of boring...At least there's CCA training to keep me occupied, but so far, weekends have proven boring. I seriously need something else to do...can't go for CCA 24/7 anyway.
In any case, training tomorrow at Rulang Pri Sch, which conveniently happens to be in Jurong. I'm expecting tomorrow's CCA to be full day. Shall have fun travelling...>.<
And I really have nothing else to talk about. Boring life. Hope for something to do during the hols...

Exams DO make you busy.
Yes, I'm back after a month. Exam's cool, I'm going to fail one or even possibly two subjects if I'm unlucky, but that's out of the point. The main thing is, it's time for CCA. Screw academics now.
And yes, so CCA it shall be now. Quite a number of things coming up recently. E4 Cluster camp, 20th ISMC, VEX, NJRC. And I'm most likely heading my ISMC group, unless I decide Joe or Yikun's up to the job. I'll rather Yikun handle NJRC though. Give him some practice at the very competition we always lose. It's less costly that way, and he gets his experience. And who knows, if we win we know what Yikun's capable of. I guess.
Today's meeting actually taught me quite a few things I should have thought of so long ago. Why the hell was I caring about rank? We're the ex-co. We plan stuff together as a whole. We act as one, plot as one, win as one, lose as one, and all in the name of the Club. There's no need for ambition going on here. Everyone's equal, or at least everyone's opinion is as equal as it can be. No major fights, no splits. Power DOES matter, but not in a place like the RC. Maybe one day I'll find a time to rise up and seize control if I can, but not in Robotics. There was never any politics going on. I guess I was deluding myself. At least I hope...

2010-04-16T09:24:00.000-07:00

Back once again. And again, life has been kinda empty the last few days. Seriously, nothing much to talk about.
Just had CCA handover today, or yesterday, seeing as it's midnight in Singapore now. Handover's been a rather big surprise for me...and a real challenge.
To tell the truth, when I was interviewed for my CCA position, one question that I nearly couldn't answer was as follows:
"What position would you prefer in Robotics?"
What position? I don't know. Everyone knows, everyone thinks I wanna be vice-chairperson. I just wanna be that guy who sits behind the scenes and runs the CCA without credit. I want to be away from the stress of speeches, of being responsible. There was a time that even I thought so. But sometimes, just sometimes, I let myself be selfish and think of the advantages of being the guy in charge, that one person responsible for Robotics. I guess it's an ambitious side of me I never really thought of. The main question had been: was I capable enough? Will this help the CCA?
I guess it was a no.
Being treasurer isn't exactly a bad thing, but sometimes, I just think of how nice it would have been to be able to proudly say that I'm in charge, Robotics is under my care. It's selfish, but after so long of living as wallpaper, I guess it's hard not to feel so.
From the CCA point of view, however, having me do everything backstage has advantages I guess. I never was good enough to lead, never charismatic enough to speak, and never influential enough. I never really had anything to my credit I was proud of. But perhaps, that was my only weakness.
Don't get me wrong, I'll still do my duties as a member of exco. I can't say I'm most enthusiastic about it, but I will get the job done.
In this little world we live in now, it's the minority which makes an impact, actually make a diference. The majority are everyday constants, people who are just there because. I guess I've never accepted myself as the latter.
I don't know if I should be relieved or discontent.

2010-04-08T02:39:00.000-07:00

Hi people. Back online after quite a few days of studying...
So, nothing much been happening to me these few days. Other than the studying streak, that is.
Been a little disappointed with my results, although I think I'm being perfectionist...
16/25 for Lit. Seriously, I'm not boasting when I say that I could have scored higher. I have done so. It shouldn't have been too hard...shall have to be more serious about Lit.
13.5/25 for Geog. Not too much of a surprise there actually; I thought I would fail. Nothing to say about it...
Shall wait for Chinese. It's a fail, but I'm hoping for D7.
Oh, and I'm restarting DotA while I try not to study to death. Watching a new generation of players is quite interesting...I'm kind of mentoring them now. Which is weird coz I wasn't even a good player last year. Shall see how they fare...
On another note, CCA's been rather...I don't know, it doesn't feel like CCA when it's only once per week and every time it's CCA I'm missing for up till 4.30 due to remedial. Hope I can get the time back...Really feeling out of touch with CCA now. Tomorrow's competition briefing, so won't be with the majority of the CCA again. Damn.
Ending my post of then. Have a nice day people.
P.S. I'm not emo, I just REALLY have nothing to say online. I guess I'm more cheerful face to face?

2010-03-24T04:23:00.000-07:00

How's life people?
Decided to postpone plans for competitive gaming...shall save up until April 17, or RotE Prerelease. Metagame will change a LOT judging from what I see from spoilers. I shall be prepared for the change with limited loss of funds. In other words, no buying until mid-April.
And in other news...
Still kinda bored. Hang out with Mingyao, Nelson, Jerome and gang often, but I'm mostly still playing judge. Other than owning Boo Zen on a 7-2 win/loss streak. Can kind of tell he was getting unhappy...but then again, I'm not really accustomed to losing on purpose. He's improving though. At least I hope. Bit by bit... It's kind of amusing watching them improve. I'm getting my ego inflated here, but real tough competition is at the tournaments. Nelson and gang are catching up, but there IS a reason they only want me to play judge at their games.
I'm thinking of playing casual and semi-competitive until 17, then I'll probably have more time and freedom for real tournaments. Don't think any of the gang will be joining me...Mingyao's already in the midst of quitting, and the rest might not last long. Then again, I've only been playing for 6 months, I don't know if I'll be interested for that long.
All my posts recently have been about MTG. Wonder where my social life flew to...0.o

2010-03-14T05:37:00.000-07:00

Okay, I'm posting.
Hm...nothing much to write about actually. I mean, what DO I write about?
BTW Jingyi, I'm NOT going to write about you being an excellent classmate or etc. Give up. =)
In any case...
Shall be away for AHSLC10, or Anglican High School Leadership Camp 2010, from Mon-Wed. Try not to miss me too much, people. Or whoever actually notices I'm online. Lol. Hope camp's fun...hols been boring so far. So, yeah, you CAN call me or whatever from tomorrow to Wednesday. Just don't expect me to pick up the phone, unless you call at midnight or something when I'm in the bunk. =)
---
On a different topic, I feel like going competitive playing MTG. I know, sounds like a crazy idea, but why not start planning now? It's not like I have any other better hobby. Cost is not as much a problem as previously now I've found something rather budget. $30 to own a $300 deck, anyone? =)
Main problem now is finding the pieces I guess. Some are decidedly high-demand, low-supply. Wonder why they're in a budget deck...
It'll also take an eternity to get some real competition. GP Kuala Lumpur just went past without me having my deck prepared this weekend, and the next nearest GP is Manila. Damn. The next GP Singapore will either be 2011 or 2012. Shall have to stick with Pasir Ris and Bishan FNM...
I happen to have a tendency to give up on extreme goals easily too. Hope this one stays. At the rate things are going, I'll probably be ready for FNM in April/May. Keep on going...
---
I successfully wrote a blog full of crap only probably a small section of the world understands. Let's see if any fellow MTG geek reads my blog.

2010-02-22T05:34:00.000-08:00

Blog still dead huh? Lol...
Yeah, I guess it's hard to get tags when no one even KNOWS the blog.
Wonder if I should advertise this blog. Rather not. It's not like there's much to read anyway...
What's a blog for anyway? Let people know what's going on in your life? I'm kind of a private person nowadays. Lolz.
My blog died the moment I revived it. Guess we weren't meant to be. T.T...
---
Forget everything above, just random ranting.
In any case, there's EL speech test tomorrow. Generally, I'm not worried about EL, but speech...hm...nah, it'll be alright. I always know what to write. ;-)
Or at least, I hope...
Chinese is surprisingly not as heart-breaking and a cause of stress as much as it used to be. Maybe it's because I know I tried, or perhaps I'm used to failing. I like to think it's both. Ah well.
Life seems kind of...empty now. It's like there's nothing to look forward to, and nothing worth doing. Seriously, nothing changes with anything I do. What's life when you don't make an impact?
Worthless.
Okay, maybe this blog is starting to get emo again. But yeah, that's how everything's been feeling like recently. Nothing to look forward to. No one either. It's not too nice feeling separated from the rest of the world after all the trouble of socialising and etc. Maybe it's not supposed to be trouble at all, but still...
---
Maybe a piece of slightly more cheerful news, although probably only to myself:
Just managed to obtain two copies of Sign in Blood and a few Swordsmith/WW cards. One more step to creating a competitive MTG deck. Shall just hope MingYao won't see this for the next week or so while the deck goes under construction...=X. You don't read here, don't you, MingYao? =)
And well, at least, in the end the geek in me is satisfied. 0.o...

2010-02-18T04:35:00.000-08:00

My blog just got revived after a 4-month break. Ignore the November posts, someone hacked into my blog.
Lol, so yeah, here I am again. Relax, I'm a lot more cheerful than what my last real post will show. Matured, I guess. I hope I'm not that emotional anymore.
So, impressions on 3G. I hope I'm not too late for this. I usually do this start of every year. Guess this one's a month and half late:
Nice, good class. Easy to influence. I mean, look at all the MTG players. =X
Just kidding. But seriously, wonderful class. I've enjoyed class somewhat...it's not as bad as I thought. =)
Too many things happened since last year, so shall not post about them. One last question before I end my 1st post of 2010:
Thinking of restarting my writing. For any 2Kians and 3Gians who don't know me THAT well, yes, I did write when I was in sec 1 to about early sec 2. Looking back, it was all horrible, but I hope I've improved. The only problem is what to write on. I'm out of inspiration, and anyway there's never been time to write. Lol. Hm...so, restart? Or focus on studies and maybe CCA?

That's all then,
DN

P.S. for any small amount of concerned peeps: my blog will be updated a lot more regularly than the previous 4-month break, so rest assured. =)

So, if you haven't heard, which you probably haven't since I didn't announce it, I'm retiring thereshallbenoobs.blogspot.com.
Yeah, I know. I've been using the same URL for 2 years already. It's stuck with me since Sec 1. But to understand why I'm quitting Blogger, you must know why I wanted to start it in the first place.
Firstly, I intended my blog to be a place to advertise and hone my writing skills. I realised I haven't touched my stories in, like, half a year already. Either it's a severe case of writer's block, or I'm losing my flair for writing. In any case, I don't really feel like writing anymore.
Next, my blog was a place where I would express my deep, dark feelings, and maybe some light-hearted ones. It was a place I would go to when life was too tough for me, and I needed somewhere to vent my anger. It has also been the place of one of my first ever misunderstandings and quarrels caused by me alone. Now that I'm a significantly more cheerful person, more mature, I've decided to face every problem I have, and quit ranting in my blog.
This blog kind of represents the memories I have of 1A and 2K. I'm going to leave it here, but it's not going to haunt me 24/7, same as my memories of 2K. I'll miss the class, but when it's time to move on, yeah.
So, it's traditional. Okay, maybe I only ever did this once, but still.
It's dedications time! Each member of 2K will have a message, so no one's going to feel left out. BTW, I'm going by register number, so don't ask me why I'm doing dedications for the girls 1st, okay?

1. Alina: Your temper really changed ever since I knew you at the start of the year, and it's a good thing. Thanks for being a tudi and for handling our E Lit Drama group way better than me, even though you were just supposed to be the assistant director. Good luck. =)

2. Aderline: Thanks for being a classmate and friend, and for the blog full of wordy/emotional/EXCELLENT posts. Your English is good. Lol. =)

3. Denise: BALLZ! I mean, thanks for being a PW mate, even if you didn't help too much or were clueless. =X...kidding. You did a great job. Will always remember how you picked me into your group coz I looked guai, then saboed me into group leader...lol. Good luck next year. =)

4. Lyn: Once again, thanks for working on PW with me. You were an excellent worker, seriously. Will miss Green Strings. LOL. Good luck with the appeal, and remember, God's always there to answer your prayer, even if it doesn't seem clear. =)

5. Dorcas: Thanks for being part of the E Lit Drama, and for enduring the lack of acting roles in E Lit, even if you were fine with it. But seriously, speak up. Good luck, and thanks for the SMS. Sending a message to the whole class can be expensive...=)

6. Christine: You yourself have noticed that you've matured through the year, and we've noticed it too. Good job. Thanks for being our main actress for E Lit, and for being an excellent speaker. Cheer up. =)

7. Rhesa: Thanks for being in the E Lit group, and for helping out in it. And...um...lemme think...yeah, that's about it. Thanks for being a wonderful classmate. =)

8. Zanne: Prefer your Christian name? BTW thanks for being a classmate, and for being the subject of the CDians' jokes during the 1st half of the year. And for joining the Gohs. =X...=)

9. Hilary: Thanks for being the main supporting actress of our E Lit group, and for sitting beside me in class and allowing me to learn how to use my phone without the teacher noticing. =X...=)

10. Chu Hui: Thanks for being so hyper in class, and for showing me how zilian a girl can be. =D... but seriously, your cheerful attitude can make an impact. Good luck next year, I know you'll do better. =)

11. Wei Ling: What do I have to say? I'm still seeing you in CCA. Good luck next year, and thanks for being a classmate. EDWARD CULLEN!!! =)

12. Mei Ting: Thanks for inviting me to your birthday party at the start of the year, and giving me the chance to learn ice-skating. And for always acting so hyper in class. Good luck next year, and don't feel sad, we'll all still see each other. =)

13. Wan Ping: Thanks for being my other tudi, and an understanding one. People say I'm the calm one, but I think you can do a better job than me sometimes. BTW don't give up writing! Good luck next year. =)

14. Zoey: Thanks for being a classmate, even if we only started talking at the end of the year and only because of Wee Liang. When are we going to have a real band meeting? Good luck next year, and always continue honing your talent in music. =)

15. Si Han: Thanks for being a classmate, and for always acting so innocent/blur. Lol. Try not to be too emotional next time, it's not healthy...BTW thanks for the farewell message, and good luck for next year. ZERO!!! =)

16. Joelynn: Thanks for being a classmate, even if I nearly didn't talk to you for the entire year, and for defending Christianity whenever Guan Wen tried to start a riot. =)

17. Jean: Thanks for being a classmate, and for being a hardworking DnT rep. Good luck next year, although perhaps you might not need it. Too zai. =)

And now for the guys...the first one might be long, so be prepared.

18. Wee Liang: Yes, it's the bastard. First of all, try not to be so emo. I don't want to use that much effort and find out you still jumped at 21 after running a marathon, okay? Cheer up, there are more girls who might just like you. Who knows? Next, good job with the medal, even if I have 5 more at home. I mean, 1st prize. Not bad. You'll do NCC proud, okay? Good luck. Finally, if you're going for triple science, take Lit. Join me. =D...kidding. Go wherever you feel you need/your cousin forces you to. Don't worry, I won't miss you. Good luck next year, and maybe you don't want to hear this, but God bless. (BTW, you did an excellent job as main actor of my E Lit Drama.) =)

19. Yi Heng: Ah, Yi Heng. Thanks for attending the student camp and accidentally being placed into our group thanks to a clerical error. BTW thanks for the yoyo tricks, they were entertaining. You were also the first other guy I knew who played MTG, and yeah, you're quite a player. I still can't think of a way to counter that deck...also, thanks for always being so caring for the class, and for doing most of the work for the 2K BBQ. Good luck next year. =)

20. Yi Tai: Yo! Thanks for always being there to act joyful, and generally make the class laugh. I'll never forget your cheerful attitude and how you can always cheer anyone up with your jokes. It's been a fun year with you. Good luck! =)

21. Hao Feng: Yeah, I'll remember you. Thanks for always slacking in class, sleeping/playing PSP/playing handphone games, and still scoring so high. Gives me a reason to hate you. Lol. But yeah, you've been a good friend. Good luck next year, and try not to sleep too often in school. After all, the posture doesn't really help you grow tall...=)

22. Darrel: Hey Phee! Thanks for being the most annoying guy sometimes, but still a great friend. Even though I've known you for like the whole year, you're still too freaking quiet for me to learn much about you. So, good luck, I know you'll excel one day. Keep trying. =)

23. Andrew: Yo brother! Thanks for...wait, that's my name. Next. =)

24. Guan Wen: This is going to sound outragous, but yes, I've enjoyed having you in class. I'm serious. We may not be the best of friends, but still, your jokes and acts do make the class lively. Also, thanks for being my very last Home Ec partner, and for showing me how someone really cooks stuff. Good luck next year, don't cause a riot. =)

25. Joel: Ah Bang! Thanks for sitting behind me and talking to me occasionally. Seriously, you're a nicer guy than you act, just embrace that. You may be rebellious and maybe have a big of an attitude, but give the teachers some slack. They don't really mean too much harm. Good luck next year, don't get yourself killed. =)

26. Jerome: Yo. You're a nice guy to be around, and I'm sure a lot of girls in 2K noticed that. Lol. Thanks for offering to let me join the guys at your house today, but I was busy. Sorry. Thanks for being an excellent classmate, and good luck for the coming year. =)

27. Kai Yuan: Thanks for being our beloved class chairman. You're a sicko sometimes, but still, anything than brings laughter to the class is fine by me. You know you care for the class, and I know it too. Thanks for constantly helping us, taking the scoldings for the class, and basically representing 2K. BTW try not to cheat too much when playing games with your friends. We don't really enjoy that. Thanks. Good luck. =)

28. Ming Yao: Fellow gamer and nerd. Thanks for being my 1st friend in 2K, although sadly we had our different viewpoints. I'll always remember you as the most kaobei gamer in 2K with a twisted code of honour. Don't worry, you're a friend. Good luck next year, get into Triple Science, okay? =)

29. Leonard: Hey! Thanks for being a wonderful classmate, although maybe we didn't talk much. Still, you're a good person and jokester to be around. 2K will remember you. Good luck next year. =)

30. Aaron: Ah Bang! Still remember you from 1A. You don't seem to have changed a single bit...now that I come to think of it, you're actually pretty quiet sometimes. I haven't really got the chance to know you in 2 years...well, good luck next year chicken. You'll make it big. =)

31. Zi Feng: Thanks for attending the student camp with me, and for being an excellent friend. We may have had some quarrels related to our faith in the past, but in the end, it's still the same God we believe in. I'll never forget you for being the most morally upright guy I've ever known in 2K. God bless you, and good luck next year. =)

32. Yi Liang: Ah Bang! Thanks for the dance you did, and for the sick drawings you always drew. Get into Art stream, okay? We need your talent. Oh, and you're the best actor 2K has ever had. Like I said previously, make it big, you have the potential! Good luck! =)

33. Eugene: So, we've been together for the past two years. You've always been a great friend of mine, a wonderful fellow gamer. Thanks for being an actor in my E Lit group, you'll always be remembered by me. So, good luck next year. You're one of the best 2K has ever had, I guess. =)

34. Guan Ze: Hi. Don't worry, I'll remember you as the guailankia who's always there to talk nonsense and basically guailan everyone. You're a good guy, just try to be less sharp next time. BTW, nicely done with the Chinese Chess. You're a pro at it. Good luck! =)

35. Wei Jie: Yo WJ! Thanks for being a fellow pro at E Lit, and for helping with my script with Alina when I got tired of being director-scriptwriter, and decided to pass my half-finished work over. Seriously, ignore the others, you're a talent waiting to shine. I mean, hey, you're the only guy to have exceeded my E Lit score during CA2. That's quite something, in all modesty. Good luck, I know you'll excel! =)

36. Zi Heng: Thanks for being a friend of mine, and for pesevering and working hard on your results. Seriously, you're smarter than I gave you credit for. Just keep working hard. Basketball and kaobei-ing people are not all you're good at, and you know that. Good luck! =)

And so, I guess it's goodbye now. I'll miss 2K. Good luck, and soar like eagles. And maybe one day, just one day, you'll make it big.
Also, goodbye blog. You've been a wonderful companion of mine, but it's time for me to handle life myself. And so, I conclude my last post.

Thank you for everything,
DarnedNoobAndrew

2009-10-24T07:47:00.000-07:00

A lot of things can happen in one day.
Shall not talk about what happened on Friday. If you're a Sec 2, you already know about it. If you're not Sec 2, you shouldn't know.
All I can say is that, it's all over. Just forget about it. People have been punished, people have been forgived, and for some, a little twisted bit of revenge has been satisfied.
What's my opinion on this? Well, I can't say they deserved the punishments. It could have been a little more lenient. But still, one good point about this entire incident is that it has bonded the class together. We stand as one now. It's a dream come true. For once in my life, I can see 2K as a true, united class, not one of separate cliques and gangs engaged in a cold war. It's a twisted way to bond, but it works. I never thought I would miss 2K during the holidays, but after seeing the care and concern for everyone from everyone in 2K, I think I will. It has changed from a class I stayed away from to one I admired, one of loyal, caring, thoughtful students who had sincerely understood their wrong and willingly paid for it. Thank you for showing me that there is some good within you.
Been an emotional few days. Of course, my definition of 'emotional' is the ability to write paragraph upon paragraph of crap with a straight face and unfaltering, calm eyes, but I think you'll agree with me anyways. Sorry. Will try to get back to the cheerful posts I once had on my blog. When was the last one?
I miss my old self sometimes.

2009-10-21T01:31:00.000-07:00

I'm going to 7 subjects. Well, at least it's one less subject to study.
And before everyone goes into a murderous mood, you don't have to tell me 'I told you so', because I don't want to hear that shit anymore. It's getting old.
Some of you may ask if I regret this. I mean, I failed Science. No, I don't regret, I did my best, my best wasn't enough, and now I'll be assigned to someplace that I deserve.
The world isn't fair. People are still classified. I'll be in a lower class. So be it.
Academic results aren't everything. Every person with some small bit of common sense knows that. It's an advantage, maybe a big advantage, but not a necessity. I won't die.
Maybe I'm so calm now because I'm in shock. Or maybe it's just that the whole damn thing is so trival to me now. Last in school isn't the end of the world. Being in a lower class simply means that I'm where I belong, it's where I'll improve best.
My exam results really remind me of when I found out I was posted to 2K.
I had prayed, I had done my best. I wanted to get into the top 4. I needed it. But no, I got posted all the way down. 2K. Nowhere near top 4. Looked like God didn't hear my prayers.
And for a while I had thought so. 2K. Class of slightly immature people. I'm not kidding, it happened all the time.
But, coming to the end of the year, I realise that I've enjoyed my time in 2K. Sure, social life was tougher, but much more rewarding. God answered my prayer when I asked to be in the top 4 classes. 2K has to be one of the best classes I've ever been. Thanks. Maybe my studies didn't improve, but I've grown where I needed to grow: emotionally.
So, if God wants me in a 7-subject class, so be it. I might be getting what I want. And no, it won't kill me.

2009-10-17T20:08:00.000-07:00

Okay, I'm blogging, I'm blogging.
Exams over, people. How're you all feeling? =)
In any case, there wasn't really anything for me to blog about recently. Maybe Mini Olympics.
So, yeah, MO on Friday. To tell the truth, I wasn't really enthu about it. Stayed in class to play cards with some 2K people. xD...
I just realised Robotics teaches you how to play Cheat well. You should see how we play during chalets. =D
So, yeah, according to Alina I didn't look like the type to play cards. Do I look that innocent? 0.o...
In any case, short post coz nothng to post about, and no inspiration to post nothing. Another day then.
Good day people. Enjoy.
DN

2009-10-07T04:43:00.000-07:00

Exam's next week. Wonderful. Two more freaking weeks and it's all over. Although personally, I'm just waiting for Geog and Chinese to be over, and I'm relaxing already. I mean, the others are totally NO KICK. =X...kidding. Although I DO have more problems with the two.
In any case, the last few days were interesting. There was expression today. They played Power of Your Love by Hillsong. WOOO!!! =D. I know how to play that song on piano too! Feeling accomplished...lol. Somehow.
So, yeah, short post. The main reason I got online was to blog about today's song actually. Lol...it's a nice song, serious. Do listen to it.
Oh, and before I forget...
Good luck for exams people! Score! WOO. =D

2009-09-26T05:15:00.000-07:00

Post number 222. Nice number.
So, paper 1. Rather fun. Yes, I'm not joking. Especially English. Always good to hone my writing skills, especially now I have so little time and inspiration to write. Lol...
Well, other than that, Chinese is pretty screwed. As usual. Shall not dwell on the matter. =)
In any case, went for LAN with Wee Liang, Ming Yao and Eugene after paper 1. Eugene left early for PA. Poor guy. Well, at least he's the only guy there. It's a good thing, probably. =X
Came back for Mid-Autumn after LAN. It actually wasn't too bad, to tell the truth. Other than Dr Boon's singing, which I shall not comment on. Oh, and Eugene's gunna get it on Monday. WTH was PA doing, with all the probs with the mics? 0.o...and that exploding lamp. Okay, maybe not his fault, but it's still fun to blame him. =D
The event wasn't actually the highlight of my day. Followed the other 2Kians for supper. Fun experience. I just realised I never really bonded with 2K until now...it's a little sad when I think of it. A year's passing us by. Well, at least there's still 3 more months. =)

Don't worry people. Been a rocky couple of weeks, but I've survived and come out of it. I'm a lot more mature now. I hope. While I can never be truly back to my old self after this, I should say I'm a lot closer to it now. Sorry guys.
As for the happier stuff:
Happy Birthday Yi Tai, and Happy Belated Birthday PHAT/Mingyao. =P...did you like your feather, MY? =D
Yeah, went to MY's birthday party yesterday with WeeLiang and Aaron. Played DM, Xbox and Wii there, as well as betray all MY's secrets to his dad. Wonderful 14th birthday. LOL.

MY's Dad: So, I want to know, has MingYao been behaving well in school?
WeeLiang+Me: Yes, he's a very good boy, people bully him he also dunwan fight back.
Me: Yalo, very good, he only break a regular of 3 school rules per day.

Opps. =D
Oh, and Happy Birthday again, Yi Tai. Sorry, no present. Need anything? =)
That's all then. Going for my little solo shopping spree for more games, DM, maybe a present for SOMEONE, and possibly get some wax too. Getting bored at home, need some games...and time away from home with no one to talk to. Lol.

2009-09-11T06:15:00.000-07:00

So, finally another post.
The holidays has been a life-changing experience for me, I guess. So many things happening. For the first time, I'm absolutely on my own, no one to rely on. It's mistakes like these that make you rethink your piorities, set your mind straight, and help you grow up, help you mature. I know I'm becoming more and more anti-social lately. I don't know how many of you can tell. Guess it's one of the prices to pay. God help me.
Sometimes, you just have to keep in mind that there will always be this crazy bastard who wants to drag everyone down with himself. These people have no value for their reputation, honour, morals, or even their life, and want people to suffer like them. Either that or they're disillusioned. You choose.
So yes, been struck by a person like that. Fucker can't keep his mouth shut. If you wanna gossip and spread rumours, at least find something more believable and try to control it. Now it's gone out of control and you want us to clear the mess. I dunno what your twisted conscience says, but it has to be badly screwed up. Idiot. Wipe that stupid grin off your face or I'll wipe it off for you.
On a far lighter note...
Wednesday was NJRC. National Junior Robotics Competition. We failed. Team 1+'s robot, my team, could not download any programs and we had to forfeit. What a way to lose. Team 1, Xin Yu's team, worked, but got 0 points. I don't know which is worse. At least we tried...
So, yes, wonderful holidays. I'm lucky if I survive.

2009-09-05T08:55:00.000-07:00

Manic Bloom is good. I mean it. Ever listened to them? Seriously.
In any case, there's been quite a lot of things happening to my uninteresting life.
Firstly, I got my results back, and they're damn cool. Band 4 for Science, anyone? Ong Eng Kiat really sux, no offence. Hard to learn when he's teaching...
And my Maths deproves to an 81 too, although that might be attibuted to my missing holiday homework. And the zai-ness of the rest of AHS.
I guess my results are pretty good already, and I shouldn't be complaining. It's just that, I've gotten so used to owning everyone else that being average doesn't cut it for me. I need more. I guess I've got to live with being normal now. It isn't a good feeling knowing you're nobody.
On a lighter note...
Last week of Alpha today. Okay, that isn't exactly cheerful, but it's still a day to remember. I guess I'm an official member of the Sec 2 CELL now. It's nice knowing people accept you for who you are. Not everyone gets that privilege. People should come to church if they want to know God AND want that feeling of belonging. Then again, that depends on the church too...
And before anyone asks me out to LAN, I'll still be going to church on Saturdays even though morning Alpha is over. =)
That's all for today then. Happy holidays. Don't get into Chinese remedial during the holidays like me.

2009-08-31T01:13:00.000-07:00

Teacher's Day Celebration was a joke in the funny, non-failure way. =D
The best performance has to be 4A. That gay dude ROX. Got to learn to dance like him. =X
Okay, so for a summary of my life today...
Wore a polo shirt and jeans to school originally today, but changed to my 2K class tee. Yi Liang, Wee Liang, Guan Ze, Guan Wen, Hao Feng, Aaron, Christine all didn't wear class tee with valid reason. =/
In any case, today's events:
Went to school. Played DM with Mingyao with my new deck and lost badly...not a good player with totally noob cards. I'm not a big fan of TCGs anyway, so losing doesn't disturb me much. =)
After that was performance. Lots of joke events. The Nobody dance by 4A was really funny. =D
Yeah...after that was supposed to be 6Eo7 gathering, then back to FSPS. Sorry for the no-show, guys. Had something on, and I don't think you all would miss me lots anyway. Lol.
So, yeah, that's all. Oh, and enjoying my new playlist? =)

2009-08-21T06:50:00.000-07:00

Firstly, sorry for the screwed playlist. Stupid copyright. Getting a new playlist now.
Okay, now I'm done with that, let's continue with the post.
CCA today. Left school early...wahaha. =D...
Actually there isn't anything much to blog about today. Just that I have a little abrasion and a few cuts on my left elbow from a prank by Yuan Hui. -.-||...he pushed me at the Water Maze as Sci Centre. Slippery floor. Guess what happened next. Now my back is a little bruised and scratched...
Yeah, other than that, nothing really happened to me.
I just realised my blog is like, real dead...someone revive it. Thanks.
That's all. Another real short post...nothing's happening in my life to post about. =/

2009-08-15T01:53:00.000-07:00

Yes, I did change the links. Happy now, Alina? =)
Lol...nothing much happened recently that I should be blogging about. Probably one of the best is the two Ah Bangs, Joel and Yi Liang. Jokers. They're potential DJs...=D...so join the Ah Bangs and get some 2K radio! =D...I wouldn't say it's a rather family-friendly rating though...
Oh, and Alpha was fun today, as usual. Always preferred Saturdays to Sundays...no one could understand today's pastor though. =/
Got to go. Short post then. Next time...

2009-08-11T07:50:00.000-07:00

Just realised I didn't talk about National Day. Wahaha. I'm a bad Singaporean...0.o
Nothing much happened recently...that I'm going to blog about. =P...there IS one item though.
Yesterday, Monday, I met Wee Liang after his tuition to go to Plaza Singapura together. Didn't want to get lost alone, but needed to purchase something...rather important there.
So yeah, survived the trip and reached Plaza Singapura safely. Went to get the item. WL originally wanted to watch some action or horror movie, but the queue turned us off. Lol.
Yeah, went arcade after that. Plaza Singapura's Daytona sux...so ex. >.<
Played quite a few games. Got owned by DJ Max...with 7 buttons and one turntable. YOU try that. >.<...there were Time Crisis and House of the Dead though. Fun games. Learning how to play rail shooters...=D
The best game there was...drumroll...MARIO KART! WOO! PWNT WL IN MARIO KART. =P...lol. Sometimes I feel like a sadist. Cheer whenever WL gets owned. Well, at least I was the one who murdered him...
Anyway, I just realised I complain a lot about CCA sometimes. If I do, try not to take it TOO seriously. Sure, my little juniors ARE irritating, but I've gotten used to it. Somewhat. Lol. It's become part of my life now. I guess. Sometimes irritating juniors AREN'T exactly that irritating...lol...
That's all then. Good day people. Enjoy your lives. If you can.

2009-08-08T07:21:00.000-07:00

Back from Youth Alpha getaway. Fun. =D
Well, better start right from Friday.
So, yeah, Friday morning was National Day celebrations for AHS. Interesting...the assembly was rather okay, but the tree planting ceremony was sian. The only interesting part was watching Joel attempt to spit at this Sec 1 who happened to be standing right next to my junior, but hit some Sec 4 instead. Lol. Joel nearly got murdered. ^^
Yeah, after that was CCA. There's a war starting between Yi Kun and Xin Yu when Yuan Hui isn't around...he makes a good peacemaker. Everyone gangs up against him. Now he's missing, They start quarreling. =/...shouldn't have got Yuan Hui and Yi Kun together. Dangerous combination of attitude. Ah well.
CCA was rather fun too. Played around at Sci Centre's Kinetic garden...the sound dish is interesting. Too bad Yuan Hui wasn't around to get pranked by us guys. =X
Yeah, after CCA was immediately YA getaway. I was late, but with valid reason. I mean, training for competition...=D
Nothing much about YA getaway that I can talk about. I mean, games, talk, discussion, yeah. I learnt a lot through YA though, and matured a lot too.
Don't really feel like continuing the post now. Sleepy, and, well, exceptional emotional for an Andrew. After going through the lessons I've learnt during YA, you would too.. I don't get emo often, okay?
That's all then. Good night, and have a joyful National Day.

2009-08-03T21:55:00.000-07:00

Yes, I'm on again. Blog getting dead, huh?
2.4km run today. It would have been a perfectly fine day. I mean, no school. What more could you ask for?
I'm getting ahead of myself. Better to start right at the start of the day.
Okay, so I woke up. Big surprise. Drank a cup of Milo and made my way to Tanah Merah MRT. Hitched Nicola's parent's car to ECP with Nicola and her junior. My nausea had started acting up then, but it wasn't too serious.
So, yeah, if any of you noticed that I was emoing before the run, it was coz I was getting damn real close to puking. Sorry if I daoed anyone.
So yeah, the run itself wasn't too bad. When you're focused on something, you don't really feel like puking. I'm serious.
In any case, I couldn't run alot. So yeah, the only time I sprinted was at the end. =/...my nausea will come back everytime I get faster. Guess it affected my timing.
And yeah, puked immediately after the run. Thanks Wei Jie for being there. BTW it's not WeiJie of 2K. He's WeiJie from 2H. Lol...nice guy.
Sorry for leaving early, everyone. I seriously had to get home. How are the teachers, Nic? =)
That's all then. Good day, peeps. enjoy yourselves while I find myself a convenient plastic bag to...

2009-07-25T08:36:00.000-07:00

Had fun today. =D...
Well, today was a standard Saturday. Woke up, went to Alpha. Same old same old. Zi Xuan, Johan and Faith left immediately after Alpha AGAIN, so Cheryl and I left in church. Wei Jie and Berwyn didn't come today...=/
And yeah, again, same old same old, Chinese preaching and all. Went home at 4+ coz Cheryl needed to go home to eat dinner anyway. Played a little Left 4 Dead. It actually isn't scary at all when you play it in broad daylight...
And so left for 85 after that game to eat dinner - by myself, =/ - and then meet Cheryl to go for the Zone Youth Conference thing. It's actually a Hillsong concert with minimal preaching. 0.o...Quite fun. Very hyper...=D...
The pastor there was good. His starting line was 'sex is beautiful' and people started cheering. 0.o...well, at least he continued it into something decent. Lol.
Oh, and the songs! Hillsong is GOOD. Seriously. Although they COULD have placed Take It All and One Way Jesus earlier. They were all the way at the back of the list, the encores. Nearly missed them. =D...
One last note. I saw Rhesa at the concert sia...0.o...she was like, tio shocked when I called her. LOL.
That's all then. Good night people.

2009-07-24T06:47:00.000-07:00

Just finished a game of 2K inhouse DotA. Didn't know everyone coz 1st time seeing their IGNs...=X. Recognised Zi Heng, Wee Liang, Yi Liang, Kai Yuan, Yi Tai, Yi Heng, and that's about it.
So, yeah, cut a long story short, my team won. Yi Heng makes a good leader, have I told anyone? Without him, I think Kai Yuan's team would have won instead.
Can see a few changes happening in everyone's gameplay. I realised that while Wee Liang is STILL a total noob, his rush-and-die gameplay is actually effective early in the game. He downed two towers, and was responsible for the 1st push. Not bad...although I did kill him a few times after that. Never underestimate Tinker. =D
Yi Tai's Huskar was rather good too. Although too bad he couldn't kill me without dying. Personally, he Huskars better than me.
Oh, and my joke kill of the day:
Yi Heng organises a bottom push and my entire team goes. We successfully push then retreat. While we were retreating, Wee Liang's SF appeared next to me and whoever was playing Centaur with 1/2 hp. I lasered him and shot off a rocket. Free kill.
That's all for DotA then. Now for CCA today.
Got new CCA shirt today. Looks a whole lot better than last year's shirt. =D...oh, and 1st official CCA session, so everyone's back! WOO. CCA's finally lively. Used to be too less people during holidays.
Yi Kun's improving. He still craps around a lot, but hey, jokers aren't exactly bad. He still does his work. It's Yuan Hui I'm worried about now. Too much to explain. I'll talk when you MSN me.
That's all for today's post then. Had fun DotAing. Bye peeps.=D

2009-07-23T03:08:00.001-07:00

Testing testing. She sells seashells on the seashore. Okay. Blogger's working.

2009-07-18T09:02:00.000-07:00

Wahaha. Can't play Blackshot on my com. Wee Liang, you got owned.
Anyway, just a random post out of total boredom while waiting for my Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce to finishing downloading to my PSP. I would usually take this rare chance of having no one on Plurk online to play a few shooters, but i'm too tired to aim now. Lol...
In any case, Alpha today was rather okay and quite enjoyable. Getting to know some of the other sec 2s liao. DESMOND CAME. Lol...didn't expect to see him there. Nice surprise.
After that was lunch, then service. As usual, I sat with the sec 1s for lunch. Still closer to them. 0.o...although I guess Wei Jie among the sec 2s acts quite well to me. He's a friendly guy. =)
And yeah, all the sec 1s and Johan left mid-lunch. Except for Cheryl. Zai. The table suddenly looked so empty.
In any case, after lunch was service, which, truth to tell, I couldn't pay too much attention to, and then I stayed around for a little while after service. Took the same road home as Cheryl, and rather amazingly I managed to find my way back from 85. Never took the back gate home before. Lol...
So, yeah, back to Alpha. The main other reason I wanted to post this is to remember what I shared then.
The sharing was about praying to God. Has God ever answered your prayer? He has, for me.
I wonder if anyone here knew me in primary school. You know, the quiet nerd who spends recess either reading textbooks or getting bullied? I never enjoyed my primary school, truth to tell. A best friend then was one who didn't hit me. I was too silent to complain about anything.
And then came NWSP. National Weather Science Project. You know, that research project where one has to present about the findings of some weather machine to a panel of judges. No kick, yeah? Just a few adults. I mean, you saw me in the English presentation. People laugh at my mistakes and I laugh along. Presenting in English is so NOT a prob for me.
Wrong.
Out of the 30+ slides for NWSP, I got two sentences to present. And even then, I stammered so much, and even forgot the 2nd sentence. One can say I screwed the presentation up.
That got me praying to God. I didn't want anything else except confidence. The name Andrew meant one of courage. I wanted to live up to it.
The effects weren't immediate, but yeah, you can see me now. I'm not the best speaker, but I'm no more a stammerer.
And so, at the end of this long and boring post, I just want to say that God WILL answer prayers. He may say yes, he may say no, he may not have answered yet, but he WILL. He has heard. Pray and cast your worries to Him.

2009-07-10T09:32:00.000-07:00

Been busy the last few days.
My Micromouse competition finally ended. It's actual name is the 19th Inter School Micromouse Competition, but I can't be bothered to remember. Wait, I did. Never mind.
In any case, it was fun. We got into finals! Pon 2 days of school! Woo! But now I have to catch up with homework. Lol.
Nothing much to blog about there that the vast majority of the student population will understand. Basically, we ran robots when it was our turn, and when it wasn't, DotA. =D...There's still the classic Solitaire or Minesweeper though. And Half-Life 2 on my computer. Nothing like a horror game to bond cca mates. =D
So, yeah, in case you haven't got the news yet, we got CUTEST BOT AWARD!!! WOO!!! xD...erm, yeah, the robot can actually be found, at least the pic, both in its original, running form and cute mouse form, at my Facebook. Be sure to check it. =D
That's all then. Have to sleep now. NJRC briefing at Science Centre tomorrow...>.<
Good night, peeps!

2009-06-27T23:36:00.000-07:00

Dang. My fringe's gone. =/...
Went for my haircut today. Lol. I think I'm uncharacteristically concerned about my hair as a guy, but hey, everyone has their own little weird bits of themselves.
In any case, this was what happened at the barber's:
"Uncle, can cut layer anot?"
"Layer ah? Can, but not scared school catch meh?"
"Won't one la, Uncle. Oh, and here *points to forehead* can don't cut too much anot? Want to keep longer."
"Try la. But I think should cut guai a bit more. In case la, you know?"
Well, at least my head doesn't look as round as before. The thing is that my fringe is gone. Apparently what I said about 'don't cut too much' didn't compute. =/
Well, on to more cheerful stuff...
Went for the Anglican Schools' Concert yesterday with Cheryl's family. They're a friendly bunch. =D...btw for those Robotics people, I'm not referring to the Cheryl of Robotics. Different person. 0.o
In any case, the concert was held to commemorate a 100 years of Anglican Schools, like St Hildas, St Andrews, AHS, etc etc. At least I think so. Just there for the music. Lol.
And yeah, the bands played pretty well. Personal favourites are St Andrew's Junior's Final Countdown, ChristChurch's Nu Wa, St Hilda's Secondary's Polkafest, and St Andrew's Secondary's The Day The Sun Stood Still. AHS's Harmonica was good, but well...=D
The MC was good too. Voice just started to break though. Pity that guy. Oh, and Cheryl, how are the recordings? =D
That's all for this post then. Good day people. Remember to do your e-learning! =D

2009-06-19T01:10:00.000-07:00

Back from CCA chalet. Busy week.
Attendance wasn't so good. Only around 10++ stayed throughout the night for chalet. Lol. Shi Xian was the only Sec 1 guy in the chalet. Reminds me of myself.
Okay, so first day of chalet, we all met at WhiteSands at 4pm. I was expecting earlier...>.<
We met, went to chalet, and then the Sec 3s introduced our first game. Basically, we were supposed to find seven items to eat/drink for dinner. As a group, of course. The first and last character of each item must be linked. My Chinese sux, so I shall not elaborate.
After that, we played a bit of Taidi and some card games, and slept.
Next day was Amazing Race. The stations were SICK. I mean it. I mean, getting lipstick marks on paper from tourists? How am I supposed to ask? I'll get slapped. There were some hilarious stations through. Having to read a children's book to a stranger in the library for instance.
After Amazing Race was BBQ. The food was good, but as usual, there was too much food. >.<...
The whole lot of us caught a midnight movie after BBQ. Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. Not exactly what I wanted to watch, but it beats stoning around. The jokes were DAMN sick la. I guess that was the most entertaining part of the movie to me. =X
And yeah, slept after that and woke up to go for some arcade gaming. There was this game where there were 16 buttons, and I was supposed to press them in tune to the music. Fun game, even through I suck at it. Lol.
And yeah, that's about it. Oh, and no school next week! Woo!

2009-06-14T23:18:00.000-07:00

Back from camp. It's been LOTS of fun. =)

In any case, I probably won't be blogging about the camp a lot. Too much to blog. >.<

Well, first day, I went there and met Zi Feng. Turns out Keith and Yi Heng were in our group too. We didn't know the others. At least for the first day. Nothing much else to blog about it except that I couldn't sleep. Lol. Oh, and their night games were good.

Second day. Not much too. I finally got to know the rest of the group better. David was from Fengshan. Same Primary school. =O...I don't really like to post about the games and other events. Nothing much to post.

Third day. We had to create an MV advertising an item. We had to advertise this shampoo called Ba Wang. The smell of Ba Wang was apparently so addictive that Zi Feng, Clarence and a few others couldn't stop smelling the bottle. 0.o... I think our MV was one of the worst, but who cares, it was fun. Lol.

Fourth day. Amazing Race! Woo! Yeah, I guess it was the best event. Especially the station with the poker cards. Watching my group play is damn funny. We had our campfire and mass dance after that.

Oh, and there was praise and worship and some preaching throughout. The messages were good. So were the songs. =D...

One of the most important things I earned from the camp is that Jesus loves us, etc etc. But something else about nearly as important was the friends I made there. We all hope there'll be a second student camp. =D

Talking about friends. I bet one of them will be reading this post sooner or later. At least, I hope so.If you're reading now, do leave a tag and liven up my blog. =)

That's all then. Don't feel like blogging too much.
P.S. I'm feeling emo now. Camp aftereffects. Especially when it's five days and you've just made new friends. It's rather quiet at home too, and I can't go out. Anyone wanna MSN/SMS/call/wtv me? If you're feeling down or suffering from after-camp emoness too, we can cheer each other up. =D

2009-06-07T22:34:00.000-07:00

Wow. My blog's dead.
Good day, people. Hol's been sian recently. =/...
I just realised I didn't really do much holiday homework. Better start reading the Chinese books. Or anyone wanna give me a summary? =D
In any case, been training Micromouse recently. The consultant's good. What's his name again? Alvin?
Sad to say, the Sec 1s are all MIA. Pro. Yi Kun's apparently in Malaysia. Well, at least H1N1 there isn't too bad. Shirley's at some camp. At least our dear Joe's interested in MM now. He hadn't been since last year. He still rushes home to Maple and never does additional training but well, at least there's an improvement.
In the end though, nearly no one's real enthu about MM. Xin Yu and I are the only two who do stay back to train on ourselves. =/...wish the rest could join. Not saying Xin Yu's bad company, but it's too quiet.
Oh, and I showed Xin Yu Half-Life 2 on my laptop today. I think I freaked her out with all the corpses lying around. Can't blame her. HL2 graphics are realistic. I got scared after I saw the zombies. =/...I mean, you would freak out too if you saw a half-eaten head.
That's all then. Till next time.
Student camp on 11th! Woo!

2009-06-03T01:10:00.001-07:00

Yeah, class BBQ yesterday.
Firstly, I met Chu Hui and Ming Yao at Tanah merah MRT to taxi to ECP. Very amusing. Chu Hui thought she was late, and in the end Ming Yao came a lot later than her. Sad life.
In any case, we got there quickly after finding a cab, and proceeded to rent some rollerblades. Ming Yao wanted to cycle, Chu Hui and Rhesa were already rollerblading, and both sides were telling me to follow them. Big lol. I ended up walking with Ming Yao after he decided that the renting fees for the bikes were daylight robbery. Me? I didn't know how to cycle (=X) so yeah, didn't affect me much. I think I'm faster jogging.
Have I ever told anyone? Mingyao is a damn good scammer. Me being the ignorant little idiot I was, I believed Mingyao when he said Macs was at Area A. Good thing I walked on. Lol. Wasn't THAT far in the end.
In any case, Chu Hui and Rhesa had rollerblades, while Mingyao and I were walking, so when we reached Macs, they had finished eating. Lol. Met Hao Feng and Wei Jie there. Two little gays. Waited for Mingyao to order his $2 upsize meal, and the (now) six of us made our way back to pit 49.
Well, at least Chu Hui and Rhesa went a lot slower this time, so we could catch up with them. Hao Feng was trying to assault Wei Jie, and vice-versa, throughout the walk. Damn funny. Wei Jie reached pit 49 with a bit of Slurpee on his shirt.
After that was BBQ. Yi Heng's 5-year-old sis came over. Lol. She has a WHOLE lot of admirers from out class. Right, Joel?
So, yeah, BBQed till night. Mingyao left midway. Stomachache. Must be his $2 upsize meal. =(...
After that, most of the guys went to some LAN near Macs. I decided to stay back and help pack up though. Kind me. =)...and even if I went, I think the only guy I could pwn at DotA was Aaron. Or maybe Joel if he played. D=
Played a little T&D with the gals, Wei Jie and Yi Heng after that. Darrel was stoning and occasionally walking around. He didn't want to play. =O
Cleaned up the pit after that, and Alina's dad fetched the whole lot of us to Tanah Merah MRT. So convenient. Walked home with Darrel after that.
One would think my day was over, but not so.
Once I reached home, I did some light internet surfing, and got interested in roleplaying. Don't know what it is and interested? MSN me. =D
In any case, got off the com at midnight, and did a little reading. Probably too much. Read until 5am, then slept. Woke up at 10am today, and I'm still sleepy now. Lol.
That's all then. Good day. Oh, and did anyone do their hol HW?

2009-05-26T05:24:00.001-07:00

Post number 200. What a big post.
Okay, so went LAN again. This time it's me, Wee Liang, Yi Liang and Guan Wen. No L4D, sadly. But we played Call of Duty. =D
CoD4 made me realise that I was one bloody good guy at backstabbing. At least compared to my aiming. Lol. Shooting a baddie is easier when he's focused on my teammate instead. That sometimes did lead to WL dying but hey, sacrifices have to be made. At least I killed them. xD
Hm...nothing more to post. My blog feels dead. =O...
Looking forward to CCA tomorrow, weirdly. Staying at home is sian. Lol.

2009-05-22T06:21:00.000-07:00

Nothing much to post about recently. Lol...

CCA was kinda fun in a way. Had to clean up the room today. Sec 1s sort Lego, Sec 2s clean up the room. For some reason, I ended up alternating between the two. I mean, how much time can one take preparing the Micromouse board? I need something else to do. Lol.

In any case, Jing Sen's getting rather good at insulting people now. At least he pretends that he doesn't instead of outright flaming me. Lol. But yeah, he's good.

So, yeah, clean room. We finished the board up in a single session, cleaned the room up, and got MOST of the Lego sorted! Yeah!

So, yeah, nothing much that I like to post about again. Other than the fact that we've been watching a TV series and a movie recently. I Not Stupid 2 and Twilight, in Chinese and Art period. Lol. INS2 was hilarious. Twilight was rather okay. A lot of people don't like Twilight, but it is interesting. Other than the parts where it goes draggy about Bella and Edward...lol. Which iss like most of the movie. Just me I suppose...lol.

Anyway, just a little picture to make up for lack of items to post. Note: The below picture contains mild(?) vulgarities. You have been warned:

OWNEDOWNEDOWNEDOWNEDOWNEDOWNEDOWNEDOWNEDOWNEDOWNED

2009-05-19T04:02:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday SiHan! Sorry, no present. Lol.
Got my full Maths back. I kinda like my results in a way. 71/80, which means 88.8%. If you're Chinese, you'll like this number too. xD...Oh, and damn HaoFeng. Sleep all day long and then get 76/80. I feel like murdering you.
I don't wanna talk about the other results. Only makes me depressed. =O
And, err, yeah, despite the depressing results, I went for some LAN with Wee Liang, Aaron and Klinsmann. Played Left 4 Dead first. Lol, Aaron and Klins keep getting lost, then when we tio incapacitated, they always cannot find us in time, then we die. -.-
Aaron left early after that, so me, WL and Klins. Wee Liang was like, four people, one Shotgun, one UZI, one Carbine, one Sniper. End up Wee Liang get the shotgun and me and Klins both get the sniper rifle. Lol. Sniping dam fun sia. Especially when the zombies still standing there never notice you yet. If you shoot their head, it will explode and blood sprays upwards. =O I'm a sadist.
Played CounterStrike after that. Everyone chiong for rifle and shotgun sia, no one want use SMG. For a good reason. People try spray they tio sniped down liao, what for use a sprayer gun? Lol...Managed to headshot WL a few times. Although most of the times, I backstabbed him. Lol. I'm a pro at backstabbing. =O...sadly, WL's aim a lot better than me. Once he know I there I gone liao. =O
Lol, until the next post then.
CCA tomorrow! Yeah!

2009-05-18T00:51:00.000-07:00

Finally completed two chapters of my new fic. Not posting yet, of course. =D

Yeah, got a new laptop. It's a Gateway. I kinda liked it until I tried playing Maplestory. Stupid thing won't let me play. Vista...0.o

Ah well. Might as well start playing Left 4 Dead instead, since this lappie's graphics card can do the job. xD...in any case, our class has too many chiongsters. Not fun seeing my own character get beaten up.

BTW, anyone has any good games to recommend to me? I feel bored now...
Short post then. Bye, and good luck with the results. =)...
P.S. I got 16 for Englis Compre. =(

2009-05-15T03:22:00.001-07:00

MYE's over! Yeah!
The Maths paper was fun. No, I'm not going nuts or anything. It's just that before the exam, I just feel all tensed up, want to avoid test, etc etc. But when I start pwning all the questions, it gets better. A good chance to excercise my mind in any case. Especially question 3b of Paper 2. Spent the last half an hour doing question 3b. Lol...solved it using my own method in the end. =)
Went to Mingyao's house after that. Nothing much, except that Guanwen followed this time. Old joker. I pwned him in Halo, rocket launchers map. Seriously, GW, the rocket moves at a slow rate, so don't aim me, aim where I'm moving.
Getting a new laptop over the weekend, I think. My Toshiba's VERY outdated. Lol. A change is always good. =D
Hm...any suggestions about laptops?
Oh, and some of you might be wondering what my DP and my new MSN nick actually means. Um...the actual word can be found on this blog. Search 'Writings'. =D
That's all then.
MYE's over!!! =D!!! Time to stress myself up writing. Lol.

2009-05-10T23:19:00.000-07:00

Got this from Alina. Something to do before Midyears. Lol, I'm bored.

Beer: Yeast.
Food: KFC. 0.o
Relationships: Parent/child, siblings, boy/girl, bla bla.
Movie: Anything that gives me inspiration. =)
Halloween: Not scary enough. =(
Sex: Another word for gender. =D
Religion: Christianity r0x! =)
Hate: No one IN PARTICULAR. =)
Fear: 2012.
Marriage: It's a long, long time away for me. I hope.
Blonde: West.
Slippers: My slippers are of jeans material. 0.o
Shoes: Kappa!
Asians: I'm proud of being an Asian nerd. =D
Pass time: Writing, music, learning to create better plots.
One night stand: I'm too innocent. =D
My cell phone: Old and full of scratches. At least it still can call.
Smoke: Smoked salmon!
Fantasy: A genre of writing that I'm not too good at.
College: I prefer Poly. =X
High school life: A big improvement from Primary School.
Stars: You know, those shiny dots above you?
Center: Another way to spell centre.
Alcohol: Alcoholics Anonymous. =)
The word love: A rather important aspect of the world that I DON'T like to write about.
Money: I need a whole lot of that to replace my lappie. And maybe get a new Yamaha keyboard too. My current keyboard doesn't even have pitch bend, which is kinda required in some of the more electronic songs I'm learning.
Heartache: Never tried using that in my writings before. Good inspiration though. T.T
Time: It's never enough when you want something to last forever. =O
Divorce: A complicated process to finalise something no one wants done.

Parents: Mine are rather alright...=)
Babies: A stage in everyone's life.

Rest: Listening to music. =)
Goal: Either learn to compose electronica/trance, or a piano piece if I'm emo, or write a dam popular book.
Inspiration: Lots of things. Firstly is other books. I like books that have exceptional plotlines. Sometimes, movies can do the job too, although I find that the best plots and stories are usually in books. Oh, and some music can also be good. Unknown Soldier was conceived from listening to metal. Lastly, inspiration for my writing can come from MSN rants with Alina. Seriously. =O
P.S. about inspiration: I'm actually working on a new story now, as evident from the last few posts. I actually got the drive to start writing again after months of DotA, RS, or PSP after Alina started her fanfic. Not that the fic itself was inspiring (opps), but yeah, that my friend actually was writing too. That and the fact that Nicola was already writing. Since two people I knew were already doing it, why not try again?

Quiz done then. Pardon the drabble at the end. Lol.

2009-05-10T05:46:00.001-07:00

Okay, okay, I'll update my blog.
Good luck for MYE. You'll need it.
Oh, and wish me luck too. Thanks! =)

2009-05-06T03:25:00.001-07:00

I never knew Mingyao was so bloody strong. There's an abrasion on my knee from his LIFTING MY DAMN CHAIR. That wouldn't have been much, except for the fact that I got a BLOODY CUT on the same abrasion at the same time. Pain multiplied. Well, at least it's not infected.
Didn't do much that can be blogged for school today. Mug, mug and muggg. >.<
I really should be studying for tomorrow's TingXie now, but I feel like slacking a while more. >.<...Damn.
Well, there IS something to blog about. We got this talk about streaming this year, and now they're saying Triple Sciences is BAD. Zomg. I like that...>.<
Hm...I guess I kinda know most of what I wanna take now. Goes like:
Sciences? Physics is a MUST, I pwn at it as compared to the others. Probably Chem next. I sux and totally have no interest in Bio. Weird me.
Humanities. English Literature is a MUST, once again. I dunno, I prefer it to other Humanities. History next, if needed. Geog if I really suck at Lit or Hist. Chinese Literature? NEVER.
Yeah, that sums it all up. I'll probably be taking A Maths too. Standard me. =)
Oh, and despite the nearing MYE, I'm still thinking about reviving the Maple fandom. Lol. Got the idea, but not the time. Maybe later.
I just noticed something particular about how I write. I like all my stories to have some abstract idea, a lesson to learn. However, I usually have to create the setting FIRST before I can think of the morals to fit with the story. As such, the theme is created AFTER the characters, place, time, etc etc. Weird huh?
That's all then. Goodbye, and good luck mugging. =D

2009-05-02T00:55:00.000-07:00

I just found that I've gotten some of my inspiration and previous flair for writing back after Paper 1. Lol. Although my writing style has changed drastically.
Went for keyboard class today. Presentation session, where everyone chose a song to play. I passed. =D
Nothing much else to post about, I noticed. Haven't been busy ENOUGH. Lol. Nah, I've been too busy to remember all that I did. In any case, there isn't much about my being busy to blog about.
Err, yeah, went for keyboard class today, and got dragged by family to buy some clothes for me. I don't mind too much this time round. Lol. Running out of clothes that fit me in any case. And I finally got a replacement for my pri-sch era shoes. 0.o
So, yeah, short post today. Enjoy the three-day weekend.
PS: Alina has started writing fanfictions! Yeah! Check http://always-bemybaby.blogspot.com/ if interested. If you're not that much into um...whatever she writes, you can always try mine. Link's at sidebar. =)

2009-04-28T06:01:00.001-07:00

Happy Birthday to me! Yeah! Lol...and my blog's still dead. Sad...=O
Yeah, kana taupok-ed today. I got cut from the metal button on my uniform. Ouch. Now there's a red circle on my chest. And my shoulder too...although I don't understand how I got cut on my shoulder. Weird.
In any case, today was rather fun. I may be nuts or something, but Paper 1 English was actually FUN. I mean, I haven't been writing for a very long time. To me, Paper 1 is a simple warm-up, and a means to keep my writing abilities from rusting. Lol...the newspaper report was slightly tough though. And the Chinese. Managed to finish both Chinese compos though. Yay!
And, err, yeah, went LAN with Wee Liang again. A little rematch of me and WL VS Mingyao. Mingyao lost, obviously. He claims that 2v1 is unfair. When I played 1v2 against him and WL, he said that I had too much cash, and therefore won, and that Wee Liang was feeding me. Lol. 1v1 another day, yeah, Mingyao?
In any case, I played Left 4 Dead for the 1st time today. It r0x, seriously. =D...especially blowing the head/limbs off the zombies. God, I'm saddist. Never thought I'll play a 17+ due to gore and horror game, and enjoy it. Thing was that it wasn't as scary as it was challenging...lol. Witches rule.
I don't think I can classify this as my best birthday. Every birthday of mine had been different, and they were all enjoyable in different ways. This birthday was good though. =)

2009-04-25T02:52:00.000-07:00

Hi peeps.
Yeah, changed my playlist. I like metalcore, did I tell anyone? Oh, and screamo too. Lol.
So, yeah, Bullet For My Valentine roxs. Even if you're not into the screaming or the emo lyrics, their guitar and drums are good. My blog just got noiser. Lol.
In any case, the size of the playlist is weird because I tinkered around with it. Not that I know a single thing about HTML. I just changed some numbers. And hey, now it fits into my blog. It was too big, originally.
I can't find an emo, dark blogskin to match my new playlist...=(
Oh yeah. If you don't like profanities flying out of your speakers, I suggest you mute the playlist at certain portions. There isn't many of them inside, but there ARE a few. Abut 3? 4?
In any case, I've been playing Counterstrike recently. A total noob at it, but hey, practice. Although now's not exactly the time, what with Mid-years and all. Lol. AWP maps rule!
Oh, and 28 April is such a special day. No, it's not just Paper 1. =)

2009-04-22T03:21:00.001-07:00

Finally another post. Hi peeps.
Been busy recently. ORAL PRESENTATION IS OVER! =D...but Paper 1's next week. =(
No more CCA for like...I dunno, maybe a month. Sian. Although I don't do much else during CCA other than MM, it's still more boring stoning around at home. At least I have work to chiong now. Lol. I'm weird.
Yay, my speed of writing zuowens increased drastically today. Dunno if I can complete Paper 1 in time though. >.<
In any case, I've nothing much to write about my life nowdays. Study, study, study, get pwnt in DotA, study, study, practice piano, rinse and repeat.
I'm so not looking forward to Thurdays. Always so sian. All the boring old subjects and tuition. >.<
Short random post today then. Bye.

2009-04-18T22:54:00.001-07:00

Went LAN with Wee Liang yesterday, and watched him pwn MingYao at DotA. Lol. Not bad, WL knows how to backstab. Oh, and wonderful matchup too. Sven VS Zeus. Sven won, obviously. Oh, and if you wanted to say anything about unfairness Ming Yao, I'd say this: I only said 'backstab that fag of a Zeus'. I didn't use the com at all. What killed your Zeus was WL's hands, not mine. =)
In any case, I'm still getting owned at pub. Probably because I keep on trying weird builds. Lothar on Huskar. SnY on NA. Manta on BS. Chionged Guinsoo on Tinker. DPS Orge Magi. Mekasm on Omniknight. WTV.
Feeling sian now. I have homework to do yet I'm slacking. >.<
In any case, I'm going for a haircut later. Wonder if I should change my hairstyle. I probably should. Look weird now. Lol.
In any case, I'm off to be a guai kia and do my Chinese now. Bye.
Damn, nothing to perform for Music. Better get used to singing the National Anthem.

2009-04-17T06:28:00.000-07:00

CCA games day today. Rather interesting. LEE HSIEN LOONG LOL.
School other than CCA sucked today. Entire class got scolded by Ms Cheong. WTF la. Put books under table so what. Locker kana stolen leh...
Anyway, before that was a rather better double period of PE/Chanbara. Just realised I suck at Chanbara. Kana pwnt by both Kaiyuan and Jerome. >.<...don't wanna talk about it. Lol.
Yeah, so let's move back to happier stuffs. =)...
CCA. Got held back by Ms Cheong, so me and Weiling were late. Made our way to T3 with Jack, Xinyu, Jane, Amanda and later Zhilin. Reached Tanah Merah MRT and met a few CCA mates, and eventually everyone gathered at T3.
So, split into our groups and went on with Photoquest. I got teamed with Yiyang, Gerald, Spencer, Samantha and Zhilin as leader. Finding the pics was fun at first, but got a little sian. Lol. Zhilin complain our group not motivated enough. I kinda agree. Yiyang and Gerald hog my PSP, Spencer read his Warcraft 3: The Sundering while Samantha and I stoned. Lol. At least I found another Gundam fan. =)
Then, started taking prank pics of each other in MRT. In the TRAIN. I saw this lady standing at the side and smiling at us. Like, WTF were we doing? Lending Mavis my PSP's a good method to prank pic. =)...poor juniors, tio bullied by us seniors. Lol.
Yeah, ate a VERY light dinner with some others at TM after that, and got home at 9pm. Piano tomorrow morning...and I'm still online. Lol.
That's all then. Bye and have a nice weekend.

2009-04-12T01:47:00.001-07:00

Lol. Playing DotA can ruin my day. Sometimes I'm better off playing with AI. Don't wanna talk about that game. Retarded Pudge think he very big, everything also blame his team. -.-...people play noob means must quit DotA isit. How you learn to play, tell me? Don't say you started out pro liao. I saved the replay liao, I wonder whether people will think of me or you as the guai lan kia throwing childish tantrums.
So, yeah, let's move on to something more cheerful. =)
Today's Easter Sunday, and marks the 1st birthday of http://thereshallbenoobs.blogspot.com! Happy Birthday blog!
Lol, yeah. Within 1 year, I've posted 184 times, and changed my writing style, according to a few people. Reading through my blog also shows me how much I've matured since Sec 1. =)
This blog contains a few very important events. An example is my first ever piece of writing. 700 words only, but it marks my entry into the world of fanfiction.
That's all then. Happy Easter. Remember, Jesus rose from the dead this very date! xD

2009-04-10T06:31:00.000-07:00

Spent a while DotAing pub today. Found that it isn't too bad when you ain't feeding. =)...then again, I pity the WD I faced. He was probably getting the same bloody stuff from his teammates I got when I played Huskar and fed. Tinker r0x ma s0x off.
And, yeah, today being Good Friday, I decided I would be a Good boy and follow my parents to SAM. Singapore Art Museum. Not that I really enjoyed art, but it was still something other than DotA, foruming or writing 24/7. The main feature was this China guy named Wu something. My family name. =)
Yeah, his paintings were good. I know it's weird, but his best were the black and white ones. The shading was excellent.
Blah, I'm talking like some art critic now when all I do is watch and TRY to comprehend. Lol. Whatever.
That's all then. Short post today.

2009-04-08T05:08:00.000-07:00

Damn. I just found a wonderfully emo and witty blog and the code isn't well done. >.<
CCA today was lol. Especially the rules and regulations.
Hm...a short recap on today's CCA.
FINALLY, the Sec 1s get to learn Micromouse after all those days training RGP. =)...
So, yeah, our dear juniors were split into three groups of 4, 3 and 2. Why such a weird number? Well...
Firstly, 4 boys 5 girls. Next, there are 3 instructors, and I'm the only guy. Following the unspoken rule that gals will stick to gals and no one else, and vice versa, I get all the 4 guys. Quite rowdy, some of them. Right, Yi Kun? Huh? =)
So, yeah, MM today. My group took a while to grasp algos. I'm basing my pace on how I was taught last year, and a little slowed down. Don't want them to be confused. Micromouse has too many portions. Yeah, they managed out a...well, kinda okay algo. It isn't competition stuff, but it's a good first try.
Have to teach speed profile and the much-feared (at least, in my case) fine-tuning of robot movement, which takes the longest amount of time in my opinion. Probably be teaching robot handling as well. Wonder if they can get everything...I don't even think I'll be giving them fastfun and backtrack yet. Anything else I've missed?
After next week, CCA will have to end. As such, next Wednesday will be the last session of MM before exams. I seriously don't think it's enough time. I mean, I took a much longer time to learn MM than two sessions.
That's all then. Have a nice day, and wish me luck for my Chinese test tomorrow. Thanks.

2009-04-03T06:25:00.000-07:00

Feel like my blog's slightly screwed. Time for a new blogskin.
Had Chanbara today. The instructor seemed a little strict at first, but I guess he was still okay. =)...
And, err, yeah, I was doing great at the practice. Scored 1st blood...until Kai Yuan engaged me. Dunno what he did, but instead of him tapping me, I fell backwards. Not that pain, but still, people were watching. >.<...I have to hand it to KY. He is good.
After that was CCA. Handover ceremony. =(...The Sec 4s have left the CCA officially. Now there's no one to tekan us when we don't train. It sounds weird, but I'll miss the scoldings.
And, yeah, the new ex-co was introduced:
Jane as Welfare Head. I know you'll do THIS job well. Jyjy! =)
Xin Yu and Gerald as Logistics. Don't worry Gerald, you'll be fine. =)...just make sure everyone follows whatever roster you create. =)
Hui Zhen as both Treasurer and Secretary. Jiayou. Tough job. I mean, see what happened to Jack...
Christabel as Vice-Chairman. Not much comment...Good luck changing the CCA. Lol. =)
Lee Hao as CHAIRMAN. Woah. Up to the job? =)...Yeah, good luck. You'll need it.
Nothing much else to post. Apparently, Jee Yuen has placed me in charge of MM training sessions. Tough life. Looks like I'll be opening the room everyday. =)...Hope he changes the in-charge. Seriously, you can't expect me to train MM everyday and force people to do so.
That's all then. Have a nice weekend. And good luck for the Os, seniors.

2009-03-30T06:54:00.000-07:00

Post number 180. I dunno, I like that number.
Nothing much to update about. I'm getting SLIGHTLY better at DotA now. =)
Had MM training today. It's the last day the Sec 4s are in charge. =(...from today onwards all trainings are to be planned ourselves. That includes repairs, reporting back to teacher if something screws up, etc etc. Ah well. Might as well start early. Don't worry, we'll work harder than you see, seniors. =)
And yeah, skipped Music presentation again. =)...learnt Pushing Me Away by Linkin Park on piano in 3 hours. YEAH.
And don't worry, my wrists are back to normal now. Should be able to write tomorrow.
Nothing much else to post about then. A short one today.
And oh shit, didn't file my Malay stuffs in time for tomorrow. I'm a goner.

Well, so I did this quiz out of total boredom. The results are as follows. The quiz can be found at http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties. (Err...okay, sounds enough like me.)

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes. (Wow. 0.o...)

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person. (I don't know, is that how I look like?)

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with? (WTF?! No one even likes me in that sense. Joke.)

Your views on education:

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can. (Okay...so I'm a nerd.)

The right job for you:

You have many goals and want to achieve as much as you can. The jobs you enjoy are those that let you burn off your considerable excess energy. (Wow. I'm hyperactive.)

How do you view success:

Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working. (This is making me sound like a wuss. -.-)

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you. (Hm...)

Who is your true self:

You like privacy very much because you enjoy spending time with your own thoughts. You like to disappear when you cannot find solutions to your own problems, but you would feel better if you learned to share your thoughts with a person you trust. (Fine, accurate enough.)

That's all then. Oh, and I just realised that Casio keyboards work very uniquely with Yamaha foot pedals.

2009-03-27T06:59:00.000-07:00

I love my semi-dead blog. Well, an update about today then.
Um...yeah, went to school early today. Ended up only Wee Liang, Eugene and Dorcas were there. You should have seen Wee Liang playing Marvel Nemesis on my PSP. It was like, WTF is this guy shouting at the device?
And yeah, had a walkathon after that. No kick, no kick. =)...But seriously even my juniors complained it was easy. Yi Kun got stalked by 2 girls. He's more pro than me when I was Sec 1. 0.o...
Anyway, sianned around in class after school dismissal, after which I followed Darrel to Ming Yao's house for...well, music project. But mostly the xBox and Wii. Ming Yao play Bleach always use imba characters nia. -.-...took us the whole day to kil his Ishida. Lol. Ishida usually isn't much until he's in the Wii game. 0.o...
Yeah, Eugene joined us midway after his CCA was done. He pwnt in Brothers In Arms. =O...
BTW, sorry if this post is a little messy. My com's too lag for me to type anything properly.

2009-03-23T00:01:00.000-07:00

Waa. Sianning at home now. Nothing much to do.
Okay, desperate measures.
If anyone DO read my stories, please just click on the 'review' button and write something. I'll be enabling anonymous reviews, so even if you don't have a Fanfiction.net account, you can still review. I dunno, just write a 'nice fic' or 'kewl original' or even 'dude you sux' or SOMETHING. I need some feedback to improve on. My fics are NOT that hard to read, are they?
What else to blog about?
Oh, and yeah, anyone wanna play a game of DotA with me? Requirements are simple:
1. Try to be as noob as possible.
2. If too pro, end the game as soon as possible. I dunno, push like crazy or something.
3. If game must drag on, make me lag and DC. Or DC yourself.
That's all. Don't worry, If I'm on the winning side, I rax fast. 30 mins. =)
And I just found out that MingYao has hidden talent in playing Axe! =O...either that or Eugene was teaching him the build. I think it's the latter. But anyway, nice game played.
That's all I guess.
Remember, read and review!

2009-03-19T05:24:00.000-07:00

Well, at least yesterday was fun.
Went to watch Street Fighters with Aderline, Mei Ting, Jerome, Chu Hui and Yi Heng. Well, the movie was...some of the fight scenes still quite well done la. But the story is frigging unrealistic. If anyone watches it you'll get what I mean.
Oh, and I actually played a round of DotA with Aaron and Eugene before the movie. 1v2, I was 1. Tough, yeah? Well, playing against Eugene WAS tough, but I guess Aaron was being blur that day. Fed me 1st blood, and another kill after that. And apparently Eugene's Pudge wasn't throwing hooks well. Don't underestimate Troll Warlord. =)...and, err, yeah, won after that. Soz.
And then CCA today. I actually find myself quite lonely in CCA. I mean, everyone's been training RGP while I'm in MM. Even Xin Yu is focusing more on RGP now. After the Sec 4s have to retire, there's only 4 of us left in MM. And, well, lots of us 4 are focusing more on different things than a stupid mouse running around a maze.
Other than that. Well, morning was still okay. Did NXT with the Sec 1s. Shi Xian's damn good at it now. Lol. I think he's either on par or better than me now. =O
And, err, yeah, slacked around after that, if for a short while. Charissa had to run off with the Sec 1 gals. -.-...so yeah, solo MM entire day after that. >.<
That's all for updates.

2009-03-16T02:33:00.000-07:00

So, long time no post.
I've been in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam for the last two days. I'll be here another two days, so see you people on Wednesday.
Today's the 3rd day I'm in Saigon. Went to Cu Chi Tunnels, which is apparently a 200km long tunnel system used in the Vietnam/US war. I must say I can learn some things from the Vietnam people. Other than how to use the spike traps. I mean, skewering US soldiers in the 20th century seems quite out of place. Exploring the tunnel was quite fun though, even if I scraped my knee crawling around. Now both my knees are red or blue/black. Right knee from Yi Kun dragging me and left knee from Cu Chi Tunnels.
Don't really feel like blogging about the last few days. All I wanna say is, I wish I were in CCA with you peeps, but Saigon/Ho Chi Minh City is still good. =)
Oh, and what are the outing details again?

2009-03-12T05:45:00.001-07:00

2009-03-07T06:17:00.000-08:00

Well, DotAing with Eugene was fun. Bloodseeker VS Kunka. I lost. =(
The match was as follows:
Eugene randoms and repicks. He gets Kunka. I choose Bloodseeker. 2nd time playing, I wanted to test a build. And yeah, I thought about the build so long he got 2 levels ahead of me. >.<...
Anw I was disabling him, and thanks to my last-minute double WB with Vanguard build (not that original, I know.) I outtanked him and Ruptured him. FB. =)
And, err, yeah, I killed him three times before he started playing hum. Then he suddenly ended my killing streak. =(...
And, err, yeah from there I dunno how he farmed, but he got ghey dmg and managed to push all the way and won. Too bad I was too fast for him to kill. But he still won...>.<
And so, nice game anw. 1st time playing against a friend this year. LOL.
Okay, now about something more people will understand.
Went for my 1st keyboards class today. Somehow I had already learnt everything in this 1st lesson. =(...but at least I practiced. =). The next lesson seems to be better. At least I don't understand the notes.
So, that's all.
Oh, and if you want to bother to, check my archives. Did my writing style really change in 1 year?

2009-03-06T03:32:00.000-08:00

Lol. Happy Birthday Jane. How's the speakers?
CCA was fun today. Mavis and Samantha didn't come today though. Get well soon. =)
So, um...BBRC was a failure. EVERY computer could not work BBRC properly. So we're back to NJRC missions. Playing with the Robosoccer board was fun though. We changed it to a table hockey board. LOL...Jing Sen and Yi Kun were scary. Hit so pain 1. 0.o...
Yeah...and I can slack for the NJRC mission liao. Just make sure my sec 1 team doing the right stuff can liao. =)...as long as I don't need to do the rotations for them, the programs can be completed in 5 minutes. It's quite simple. Sadly, we're doing the same mission next week.
Okay, what's coming next isn't going to be cheerful, so get prepared for some serious talking.
1st of all, to tell the truth, I don't hate you, Christine. I only hate your attitude. There're a lot of points that need changing, but let's focus on one that you showed today.
So, we played Captainsball for PE. With such a huge number of people playing, it's quite obvious I didn't get the ball at all. You didn't too, right, Christine? Well, all I wanted to say was...so? So what if no one passed the ball to you? Snatch it. That's one thing that's wrong about you. You only know how to shout at your teammates to pass to you. Try to think. If the ball isn't going to you, it means it's being passed to someone who can make better use of it in his/her current position. So stop waiting for the ball and go get it yourself. Life isn't about waiting, it's about doing. Don't keep crying about how you can't snatch the ball. Just TRY. As long as it helps yor team, just TAKE THE DAMN BALL. Don't wait for a pass.
Waiting for the ball to come to you tells me a very important thing about your attitude. You wait for people to take the first step too much. You wait for help too much. All I want to say is, TAKE THE FIRST BLOODY STEP. Really.
That's all for today, I guess.

2009-03-04T05:53:00.001-08:00

Okay, to reply to Alina.
I'm not a nice guy. I have LOTS of ways to talk and laugh until you cry if I hate you that much, and I'm feeling composed and not going to lose my vocab that day. I just don't like seeing people cry, even if I didn't cause it. Okay, so maybe that's nice guy mindset. >.<
Not going to dwell on that topic though.
Released Thirteen Crystals today. Gunna link it soon. Trust me, if you read Prologue and thought it was good, this is better. If Prologue sucked, as I thought it did, this is a...well, improvement. Do read and tell me if anything's wrong. Thanks. =)
And just a note. If you're expecting a love story or some kind of drama, don't read. The plot is still there, but TC is basically Matrix, Bleach, Lord of the Rings, Masked Rider Ryuki (Yes, LAUGH AT MY CHILDISHNESS.) and well, shonen anime in general. Not Pokemon though. I perfer writing action scenes, if that single sentence makes more sense. It should.
Yeah, crapped enough today. Off to sleep. Bye peeps.

2009-03-03T00:17:00.000-08:00

New blogskin. No, I'm not no Mapler no more. But I do write in the MS section of FF.net.
Nothing much to post about. For once, school was boring. I'm kinda drifting away from 2K in a small way...0.o...
SEL was quite good. I don't think the message got to the people who really needed it though. The power of total ignorance and denial. >.<
I've really been having these big doubts recently. Looks like I've been living in a fairytale world too long.
I used to believe that anything can be righted. Anyone can have a change of heart. All it takes is time and hard work, and perhaps a view of what they did wrong. I was totally off. There are some people who simply cannot be cured. I've given up helping them. Now is the time to fight fire with fire.
Sure, they talked about not giving up your dreams, etc etc. Sometimes dreams are just impossible. And when they're impossible dreams, live with it. I'm going to live with it, and you'd better be comfortable with that.
Okay, just a short ramble. Sorry. I just needed to pen my thoughts down somewhere. Anywhere.
I just wanted to end off with something that might be contradicting.
I know I said a change of heart for them was an impossible dream. But you know what? I'll just try dreaming it a little more. Maybe one day they'll lose that self-righteous saddistic exterior to a humane inside. aybe. I dunno. Anyone can keep hoping.

NOTE: If you don't feel comfortable with this, don't read this and pretend I'm just a cheerful weird guy. That's all.

2009-03-02T05:01:00.000-08:00

Okay, I'm starting to hate my com.
I can't see any blogskin backgrounds, YouTube takes a freaking long time to BUFFER, not load, and the DotA forums make my webpage hang. And it all happened today. 0.o...
Nothing much to post about today. Yes, I'm going back to school tomorrow. Apparently Yi Liang didn't sing too well today, but wtv. 0.o...
Yup, nothing else to post about. Hope this com can still work...
Off to write some more then. Before I get too sleepy. Ah well.

2009-03-01T05:21:00.000-08:00

Thirteen Crystals has reached 3k words for its prologue and 1st chapter, but I'm still not done yet. Long way to go. Big improvement from my 700-word prologue of a Prologue...
I think I'm coming down with a flu. Zanne disease. >.<...hopefully I'll make it tomorrow. I wanna see Yi Liang sing. LOL.
My blog is getting deader by the second. Wow...maybe I update or check too fast. Maybe.
Alright then, now to ask some questions that I guess will NOT be answered on this blog, but I'll ask anyway:
Do you people think introducing 3 major characters, the entire setting, and an entire host of minor characters will be too confusing for one chapter? I've gotten a lot more creful after what happened to Prologue. Basically, it got too confusing to be read well. The main reason was that I had introduced too many characters in the first few chapters.
Hm...that would be all for now I guess. School tomorrow. Hope I can memorise Man Jian Hong in time. Either that or teacher forgets. =)

2009-02-28T05:54:00.000-08:00

Dang.
Well, I had my haircut today. I think I still look very much like the nerd Zi Heng said my hairstyle made me look like. Sad >.<
For one, my fringe is missing now. Another, my sideburns are missing. Well, at least I didn't get me a buzzcut.
Oh, and sorry for the huge delay in Thirteen Crystals. No inspiration, I guess.
I've been playing DJ Max a lot too, recently, since I upped the difficulty level of my DJMax account from Easy to Normal. It's more fun when you don't full-combo every single song. And I unlocked a few songs too. This is a nice song I unlocked:
This one too, although the sound of the song is VERY different. You have been warned. The last one was a lot more peaceful.

Till the next post, I guess.

2009-02-27T02:05:00.000-08:00

So, as my MSN nick might suggest, Evil Trees of RuneScape are REALLY cute. Do check them. =)
So, yeah, today was Art, Chinese, PE and then CCA. Art was lol. I drew a DAMN complicated hexagon design, with overlapping and whatnot. Took me 45 minutes. See, I'm such a patient guy. =)
Chinese? I don't wanna talk about it. Damn the test. I thought I wouldn't fail in Normal Chinese. >.<
PE. We ran 15 laps up and down the stairs. Hey, I was perfectly legal okay! Never cheat. =)...after that was free games. What we played was as follows:
Captainsball: Whole class minus two.
Badminton: I and Ming Yao. >.<
Yup, I improved a lot today. Finally managed a proper backhand. I know I'm noob.
CCA was another lol. We had to build a bot for RoboSoccer. Well, some of us did, the rest slacked. I helped with the 1st bot and slacked through the 2nd. =/...
Oh, and lots of missing people reappeared today. First was Elaine and Vivian. Finally back in CCA. Next, Yuen Mun came back. Too bad she lost her authority last year at the handover ceremony. =)
The Sec 1s saw Qian Yi for the 1st time too. Three of the five IP kias came back today. So, yeah, full house and a little more. At least the juniors got to see more people who used to be, and still are, in Robotics.
Oh, and really sorry with Thirteen Crystals. I'm thinking through the plot now. I don't want to make the mistake of not fully planning my story, as I did with Prologue. I really think Prologue wasn't that well done after all.
So, yeah, that's all then.

2009-02-23T05:51:00.000-08:00

Just found out yesterday that my ice skating is better than my cycling. Interesting.
Rawr. Stayed out late yesterday AND today. Sunday and Monday. And tomorrow's CT. >.<...
God, someone help me. I only remember slightly more than half of the words. And somehow I'm not panicking. I love and hate myself at the same time. Damn. I am so NOT going to fail this one. My first Chinese paper of Sec 2. Hope to break the record of fails. >.<
Yeah, stayed back to study Chinese originally, but ended up going for CCA to play some games. LOL. Slacking day. Well, it wasn't an official CCA session anyway.
Yeah, went to TM after that. Too bad I wasn't rich enough for their pepper lunch thing. 0.o...
Managed to study some Chinese at CCA, okay. Not too bad. But well, didn't manage to study all.
Alright, wrote enough for today. I can chiong more of Thirteen Crystals tomorrow. Now is study. >.<
See ya.
And good luck.

2009-02-20T06:26:00.000-08:00

Missed going out with SK and the other CCA mates just because my grandma specially cooked dinner today. See, I'm such a good, guai grandson. =)...and I can't make it tomorrow too, coz I'll be out. Yes, with family again. I'll be able to attend on Sunday though, so yeah.
CCA was seriously LOL today. I didn't know the sec 1s were that good at playing games while cher and seniors were not around...pro pro.
And we got a new member! =)...Spencer managed to blend in quite well, seeing as it was his first session.
Yes, I changed my playlist. A little fast, I know. I just felt that Euphorium and Alpha Century IV sounded kinda epic. How I like my music.
Oh and, I'm sorry I haven't really released Thirteen Crystals yet. Yes, that's my new fic. Don't judge it by its name just yet. =)...the prologue has been completed as of 20th February 2009, 10.38pm GMT+08:00. Writing the 1st chapter now. As is the custom of all my chaptered fics.
Will blog another day, I guess. Bye!

2009-02-18T05:54:00.000-08:00

Feeling happy today.
I started on a new writing project, for one. I was kinda fed up with so less people reading RuneScape stories, so I've returned to writing for Maplestory. Cheer, people. If you can. =)...
Oh, and Wei Jie plays RuneScape. Hi, buddy! =)
Hm...I made a new online friend too. To think I met him when I decided to train RS combat when I was bored. He doesn't know too much about quests and slayer masters and wtv, but somehow he had a GE database in his mind. Helped keep me from losing out on good drops a few times. Good guy. =)
And, I've made it to 65 attack, 65 strength. Welcome to the Warriors' Guild! =)
Next thing, Defence 60 and a Rune Defender...
That's all I guess. Sorry if any taggers don't understand what I'm talking about. =S

2009-02-14T22:49:00.000-08:00

Wow, I got tagged. Okay...Too bad I can't copy paste.

List 10 random things about yourself.
1. I excelled at Sciences when I was younger. I'm starting to focus more on English and Humanities now though.
2. I have a habit of raising my left arm to a 90 degree angle while I walk. This is due to a former habit of spinning a pen while I was bored, which required me to raise my left arm.
3. I wanted to go to NUS High or Hwa Chong when I was in p6. I'm glad I went to AHS now though.
4. I had difficulties writing English compos when I was p6. Look at me now.
5. I'm not interested in driving or cars. Weird for a guy?
6. I get bored the most during the weekends or when I stay at home. For me, holidays are when you try hard to find something to do.
7. I'm not a fan of travelling, although I do enjoy end-of-year trips with my extended family.
8. I listen to English songs the most, followed closely by Japanese. Chinese and Korean songs tie for third. Fourth has to be Swedish (Basshunter).
9. I'm planning another story even as I write tSoB. Busy, eh?
10. My sense of hearing and taste is sharper that my other senses, especially smell. I've a constant blocked nose. Also, I can't tell when a picture is changed slightly.

Person who tagged me: Lin Ying. Although she didn't tag me, I saw this on her blog. -.-
Relationship: Um... Ex-senior. She IPed off to TJC.
Three impressions: Crazy about TJC, taller than me(>.<), Maple freak.
If she becomes my enemy: Well, too bad. 0.o...
What will you say to the person you like very much?: Um...well, I know lots of things to say, but I don't wanna reveal them here. =)
Characteristic I like about myself: Someone name something I should like about myself. I dunno.
Characteristic I hate about myself: Which one? There's lots of them. Well, I sux at piano. 0.o
Say somethig to the person you hate: Um...I won't hate you if you would just stop insulting everyone you see. =)
What do people feel about you?: Don't ask me, ask the people tagging me. Opps...I'm gunna have a deader blog...
Your crush?: She's a gal. =)...happy guessing!...then again, I don't really think I like anyone THAT much yet.

2009-02-14T01:25:00.000-08:00

Happy Valentine's Day, peeps. Anyone received any gifts? =)
I didn't really receive anything big. But hey, why should I expect big gifts? =)
Anyway, thanks Mei Ting, Christine and Hui Zhen for all the chocolates, cards, etc etc. Honestly, I didn't expect anyone to prepare such a mass amount of gifts. Where do you people get the time from? =O
Yes, I DID buy a rose for a FRIEND. Note that she's just a friend, in case you people love to tease. =)...wanted to buy for more, but scared I kana dsiaoed AND cashless for lunch. =)
CCA was fine. Sumobot pwns. =)...LOL Yi Kun's team the bot pro sia. Attach a spinning wheel/chaingun/saw/electric fan to the front. Too bad it wasted motor power, so it wasn't that good an idea after all. The steadiest bot was still the one whose team had advanced tutoring in the form of Xin Yu building some of the bot for them. >.<
Nothing much to type about. Remember, add me at thereshallbenoobs@hotmail.com. I lost my 6E07, 1A08, 2K09 and Robotics contacts lists. T.T

2009-02-12T03:46:00.000-08:00

God, I can't believe I lost my email account. I've been using it for 2 years.
So, yeah, please add thereshallbenoobs@hotmail.com. Thanks.

2009-02-11T06:17:00.000-08:00

Short post.
Well, yes, I updated Symbol of Balance. It's now around 13-14k at 4 chapters, 1 prologue. Not bad, my chapters are slowly lengthening. Hope my writing improves too.
CCA today was kinda fun in a way. For perhaps the first time I actually constructed an actual, if slightly shaky, robot. Looks like NXT is more for me than RCX. I usually only programme with RCX. Now I can do a little of building and the same amount of programming with NXT. =)
Oh, and, um, back to my writing. For anyone who reads, if you spot any errors or just FEEL that something is not right, feel free to tell me, ya? Unless your comment is just "ZOMG YOUR NUB HAHAHA SUXOR" I will read, and take notice of, it.
Yup, I did say it was a short post.

2009-02-10T00:41:00.000-08:00

Um...yes, don't trust any of my emo posts. As Gerald had stated, most of them are half-lies, which I actually made up in a fit of anger. I know some of you hate me now. I'm planning to delete those posts.
Hm...nothing much else to say now. Stayed back to lame around with some other 2Kians. And now I'm procrastinating on my Chinese. >.<
Beginning to think that my life is either very boring or very negative. I mean, what do I do when I come home?
1. Blog.
2. Do some writing.
3. Play a little RS or Counterstrike.
4. MSN.
5. Piano.
6. Listen to some music while reading.
7. Okay, maybe there ARE a few things I do...
But I usually only do them for a short while. I get bored easily.
And when I ask for something to do, something bad always has to pop out. I want a nice surprise, not an unpleasant one.
Oh, and WW4 looks like it's over now. Good. =)
Okay, back to sianning. Bye.

2009-02-08T03:24:00.001-08:00

Okay, yes, I'm going to leave the last three posts here. It will be a good reminder of how losing my temper can make me lose my reason too. Once again, sorry to whoever felt insulted by this. I know many of you won't be looking at me the same way again. I'm not the peaceful guy I thought I was, I guess. I don't mind if you all think there's something wrong with me, because now I'm beginning to think there IS something wrong with me.
On another note, I'm hoping WW4 in 2K has ended. If not, then dammit.
What's the use of warring? I'm probably not fit to advise on these matters now, but truthfully, once you start a war against another person, you get angry, offended party gets angry, you waste time, and effort, said offended party wastes time and effort. It's not worth it.
Of every example you have ever known, has an attacked person ever learnt anything about their mistakes? Quite the opposite, they'll get angrier at you. If it was your fault in the beginning, then yeah, you were being unreasonable, as I had been. But if it was their fault, they probably won't learn. Why bother? Just leaving said person alone or trying to talk it out is the best method.
Once again, if you all don't feel like taking my advise, I'm fine with that. After all, I can't be trusted that much anymore, yeah?

2009-02-06T19:52:00.000-08:00

Okay, a short post today.
Sorry about the previous two posts, Gerald. I guess I can't control my temper as easily as I would like myself to think. I just felt quite insulted when you said all that you said. I'll admit: I have faults too. So sorry. But that doesn't mean you're that perfect either. I'm just apologising for the wrong I did.
Hm...nothing much else to post about today. Sorry for being offline yesterday. Did I miss out on any stuff? 0.o
Hm...I guess I'll do a short list of what I miss in 1A08 that 2K09 hasn't been able to replace yet...
1. Water Wars and just staying back to slack around after school. Everyone seems so busy in sec 2 all of a sudden.
2. So far, no one I know has been able to replace Chng Kiat in talking cheem science with me. T.T
3. Nearer to Term 4, I realised that EVERY single person in 1A had a part to play in the class. It took a while, but by Semester 2 the entire class was bonded. I hope 2K can reach this.
4. 1A08 only had guai lans, not total bullies. I'm not going to name anyone here.
5. Well, I'm glad to say 2K managed to be on par with, or better than, 1A in other matters. 0.o

2009-02-03T03:44:00.000-08:00

Yes, yes, I'm updating.
Went to TM to watch Bride Wars with Alina, Wan Ping, Si Han, and Wee Liang today. Quite okay la...which is surprising, 'coz I don't really watch or read romance, unless it's a small subplot. Alina and WP cried near the end...was it that sad? 0.o...
Went to Toys'r'us with them after that. Makes me feel I had a deprived childhood. =O...nah, I bought a few Lego toys there when I was young. Not enough cash to buy the Rubik's Cube I saw there. T.T...previous one spoilt, you see.
After that was Popular. Wanted to buy this pen coz I could spin it well. But, well...
Advantages of pen: Weight at end, smooth, long.
Disadvantages: Weight mentioned was only at one end, therefore fingerpasses are harder while sonics are okay. Wasn't totally symmetrical. >.<
Oh, and SH why so emo? Lol...always drift off on your own.
So, anyway, wanted to MRT back home, but then WL had to drag me to bus 72. Stupid. You said you wanted me to accompany you. What about MY wait then? I MRT home all by myself leh. Well, at least I didn't have to board...
Sian. Have to do some PW work now. Bye~
PS: went by Yamaha today. Tio suanned, coz my keyboard is Casio. And, as everyone knows, Yamaha musical instruments are better. The keyboard same price summore. >.<...mine can't even switch tones fast. >.<

2009-01-30T03:26:00.001-08:00

Art today was LOL. DotA finals...
"If Art remedial is in com lab then nevermind, I can go." Yi Heng, 30/01/09, Com lab. LOL.
PE today again. Played touch rugby at first, which kinda sucked, coz no one could score. After that, ran around the stadium, with stairs and all, 8 rounds, before having a class wave pumping session. 0.o...
Yeah, after that was free time. Played soccer with the other guys. No, don't get shocked, I DO play sports. 1st time as keeper, and I saved quite a lot. 0.o...beginner's luck rulez. =)
After that? CCA. Quite sian. Kana arrow with Xin Yu and some sec 4s to find NXT parts and test them to see if they're working. Amazingly, I managed to use NXT better than a LOT of my seniors. 0.o
Once we finished, it was break, which was kinda sian too. Stupid Joe and Gerald. Joe went to shake his canned drink and slam it on the canteen table, after which Gerald immediately opened it. Boom. Milo on everyone.
After break was a little bit of VEX. Hey, I didn't slack: Jane and Christabel fixed the chassis and motor, but I did the battery pack, the transmitter, and the so-called 'brain'. Actually, all I did was attach a plate to the chassis and screw the items on. =X...at least it can balance.
So, went home after that, and now here I am.
Rawr. I need some inspiration. Small writer's block. >.<

2009-01-27T23:45:00.000-08:00

The last post was post number 150. 0.o
Anyway, the China girl (she was actually Taiwanese, but I didn't know =S) wasn't too interested in me in the end. 0.o...LOL.
Hm...nothing much to blog about yesterday. I'll talk about today then...
Yeah, New Year celebrations at school. A little late. As expected, I wore red. I was probably the only guy there who wore totally 0% white shoes. 0.o...but hey, at least I wore the AHS socks.
Okay, so for the concert. The Girl Guides' dance was okay, at least they were enthusiastic. I mean, trying dancing to a pop song in front of a school. Although I STILL prefer to listen to the music. =X
The NCC were hilarious. BTW Mee Siam Mai Hum is soo outdated liao lor. 0.o
And yes, Wushu. I don't see a performance by them that often. And yes, they WERE good. AHS, centre of excellence for Sports. >.<
After the concert, talked to a few people. 0.o...oh and sory SH, couldn't go with you people. Other plans. 0.o
Yeah, went to White Sands KFC with 1A08 guys and some other sec 2s I don't really know. 0.o...I guessed they had fun raping Guang Jun's lunch. LOL.
Played Daytona after that. I mean, I WATCHED them play. Too noob liao me T.T. And Time Crisis 4. Wanted to play this cube thing which is kinda like o2Jam with 16 buttons, and the notes appearing out of nowhere, but yeah, saving my cash. Hey, all the donations to school and CCA funds came from my pocket money leh. 0.o
Went MRT back home with Elwin, and here I am now. 0.o...
Is there any homework to do? I think I've completed most of them...

2009-01-26T00:43:00.000-08:00

House visitation ended quite early for me today. 0.o
Nothing much to post about. Completed all my homework liao. I can be guai if I feel like it. 0.o
Saw my cousin playing StepMania today. You know, the game that's like Dance Dance Revolution on the com? I guess I still prefer o2Jam. 0.o
Oh, and the total level for RS for me now is 900. Been chionging levels recently. I mean, 17 levels in 2 hours?
I find that I've been changing topics VERY randomly every time I blog, which MIGHT get confusing. Lol.
Now for another topic. 0.o
I dunno whether I should feel glad or depressed. Apparently, I have a cousin from China who came back to Singapore for CNY, and apparently, she keeps asking my grandparents about me. Like she wants to see my photos, bla bla. And APPARENTLY, she's a year younger than me. And I'm supposed to entertain her tomorrow. Originally I'd be fine with that, but then I DID mention previously that my cousin is from China. In other words, she will very likely only speak Chinese, and every good friend of mine knows I failed HCL.
Wtv. Happy New Year anyway, peeps. 0.o

2009-01-24T21:25:00.000-08:00

I'm back, and Happy New Year Eve people.
Dang, my new specs look...um...nevermind, you'll see on Wednesday. >.<
Hm...nothing much to post about. A few things though:
I reached a total level of 888 on RuneScape today. =)
I completed half of the project planner WITHOUT proper specs. 0.o
Joe, you die next CCA session. =)...nah, jk. Just pay up. =)
Testing different types of music recording, playing, etc etc software. And I suck at using all of them. T.T
Oh, and, um, who wanna play RuneScape? It's fun. =)...Come on, I need someone weaker than me on my Buddy List...=X
And, um, yeah, that's all. Bye people. Have a happy, happy new year. 0.o

2009-01-23T02:49:00.001-08:00

Just a quick post to reply to the spam of tags. I broke my specs, so going on the com is quite a headache.
SH: I guess not. Guess yourself. =)
Zethos: I guess we're rare people. =)
Alina: NOOOO. Hyper but still reserve some respect for me. Or I'll turn emo. =O...BTW the blogsong nice right? =)
Joel: Another day...
Nic: I'm not emoing. =O
Lyn and Denise: Diao.
Nicola: Scary wor...
That's all. Can't stay online too long. Stupid headache.

2009-01-21T04:56:00.000-08:00

I dunno why I keep seeing emo stuff nowdays. Reminds me of myself about...6 months ago? Yes, I WAS a partial emokia. If anyone can be bothered to go through my archives and check, I was this love/crush-struck 13-year-old BOY who posted emo posts everyday. I'm a lot more mature than that now. I think...
Not meaning to insult anyone, but what's the use of being an emo? Life is sad, life is miserable, everyone hates you, and most sad of all, YOU hate yourself. Is it so worth it?
Sure, life may be daunting sometimes. But the most important thing to do, which perhaps is the hardest too, is to just pick yourself up and go on. It's a long life waiting before you. This is NOT the end.
Think about it. Emoing = worry, self-hurt, isolation, problem still around. Fighting back = Slight worry, raises self-confidence, potentially gets problem solved. Sure, there's sympathy to be gained from emoing, but what's the use?
Hope I haven't hurt anyone with this little post. If anyone feels offended, feel free to take it as a joke. I'm fine with that.

2009-01-19T05:22:00.001-08:00

Your Career Type: Artistic

You are expressive, original, and independent.

Your talents lie in your artistic abilities: creative writing, drama, crafts, music, or art.

You would make an excellent:

Actor - Art Teacher - Book Editor

Clothes Designer - Comedian - Composer

Dancer - DJ - Graphic Designer

Illustrator - Musician - Sculptor

The worst career options for your are conventional careers, like bank teller or secretary.

What's Your Ideal Career?

Okay, so I'm a visionary. And a dreamer. Okay, maybe I dream out plotlines, but visionary? I'm no Martin Luther or whatever that guy is.
As for the MI, yeah, quite accurate. See? I'm made for Music. =)...
Anyway, had a Micromouse competition today. It was really...bu shuang. 6th place. Stupid. Well, at least I got to play DJ Max 2 and Counterstrike there. Bullpup or whatever that scoping semi-auto rifle is rules. Although I still prefer the Terrorist's Krieg. =)
So, that's all. Oh, and how was school? =)

2009-01-19T03:00:00.000-08:00

LOL.
Been blogging and chatting with others recently, and I find that everyone's crazy about finding a partner. I mean, wth is wrong with them? No gf can flirt and no one to slap you leh. =X...nvm...
And, err, yeah, I guess I missed out on a lot today too. Bloody CCA. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, possibly Thursday, and Friday. >.<
Yeah, MM competition tomorrow. Can pon school. =)
Thing is, I'm coming to school bloody early for the CT and the training. Sianned.
And there's another competition in Feb...
So, I see that the class board is doing well without me. 0.o
JYJY. May 2K get 1st. =)
Oh, and does anyone think a remix of Axel F will be good for the Music performance? Originally there isn't a guitar, but I'm gunna add 1 in. The motif will still be there though. It'll be like, I play the motif and variations, Ming Yao play guitar, either Zi Feng or Darrel do the 'ding ding' and 'breakdown' vocal effects. The other who doesn't have a job will play the drums. A very unelectronic version of Axel F. 0.o

2009-01-17T18:48:00.000-08:00

Okay, advert time:
Looking for a chio/cute girl around the age of 13-14 to be Wee Liang's GF. He's a nice guy. =)
And, err, yeah, end of advert.
Went for the AHBand concert yesterday. By myself. Yeah, I know I very loner and emo la. But can't help it.
Anyway, have to say that Band played QUITE well la. At least I can't spot any mistakes. And, trash me if you want, but some of the songs WERE nice.
Sitting next to Wee Liang (yes, I met him there.) can be a little cham SOMETIMES, mostly because he keeps using my phone to spam call Wei Ling, or he screams like a gay. 0.o
Oh, and for those who saw me yesterday, I don't wear like that ALL the time. I just felt like looking like a guai kia/potential emo kia that day. 0.o
Um, yeah, enough of crapping. Having early reunion dinner today, and I haven't completed all my homework. =O
So long,
DN

2009-01-16T17:51:00.000-08:00

LOL, yesterday midnight was dam PS.
I was listening to music on the com, at full blast, as usual, and I started singing - yes, ridicule me - to the song. If you wanted to know, it was Had Enough by Breaking Benjamin. Practicing for Music, you know? =)
And then my mum had to wake up and walk into my room. She was like, "I thought you watching movie leh Andrew." 0.o
Really ps. LOL.
Oh, and I've written the fic for your challenge, Nicole. For anyone interested in reading my writings, please scroll down to 'Writings' and pick one that suits you the most. EXCEPT for 'Gift For You'. That one sux. And 'Prologue' too. Other than those, well, do read. Thanks. =)
Sian, still can't think of a melody for Music...sometimes I wonder why I'm even trying to compose a song. 0.o

2009-01-16T03:20:00.000-08:00

Class deco seems well enough without me. Good job, 2K.
And, err, yeah, went for CCA today. I too guai to pon CCA liao. LOL.
Well, prepared for MM competition on Tues. And after that we, well, slacked. Stupid. Not allowed to go out of Robotics room, so cannot help with class deco. >.<
Oh, and PE today was seriously SHUANG. Run 5 rounds, each round end with pumping/sit-up/inclined pullup/ other crap. And I ran 3 extra rounds, which was LOL.
After all the running was a game, or two, of footy. Amazingly, I played, and actually GOT the ball a few times, seeing as I only served as a sub keeper for one round and as the audience for every other round last year. Tiring but fun. LOL.
Some messages to some people:
SH, it's not that you're not a good vice-chair. Seriously, I didn't even think that. I probably would have done a worse job had I been in the commitee.
Alina, I wouldn't say your tags are useless, I'll just say it potrays thingsthat I not am, and therefore they ARE useless. =)
Wei Ling, other than forgetting your wallet and earphones, you forgot your NJRC Participation (LOL) cert too. We found that out much later. If you don't want it by Monday, I might use it as printing paper. One side IS blank, after all.
Wee Liang, I am so NOT gay, so stop attempting to gay me.
That shall be all. Have a nice weekend...
Oh, and our new batch of Robotics Sec 1s are real short. xD...=X

2009-01-13T03:32:00.000-08:00

Yesterday was a real sad event. Tomorrow is going to be too. I'm not going to blog about it, but you can ask me in school. Yes, it's related to Boonie's speech.
Damn, I don't have the inspiration. Gimme some inspiration. Or make me emo. Either. I need to write.
Oh, and does anyone know any music composing programs? You know, Audacity, or stuff like that? Gunna do pre-composed MIDI and live keyboard for music if I'm soloing. If not, I'll erase the guitar or drums portion from the MIDI and continue with a small band. And no I'm so NOT singing. Nearly getting into Choir and attempting to sing/shout a metal song is different. I fufill the requirements for a deep voice and some amount of controlling my pitch, but that's all. No skill, no practice. And no I'M NOT GUNNA PRACTICE SINGING.
Okay, that shall be all. Seeya.
So, can anyone make me emo?

2009-01-11T03:33:00.000-08:00

YES. FLL IS FINALLY OVER.
Now, I dunno if you guys have heard of FLL. It stands for First Lego League (eFfing Lousy League), and it's simply a damn tedious version of NJRC. I wasted my entire hols preparing for it. >.<
So, yeah, competition was today. 8am - 5pm. There goes my weekend.
Events today:
Met Xin Yu and Christabel at Tanah Merah Interchange. Went to National Library together, and met Joe and teacher there. And, err, yeah, we encountered QUITE A FEW problems. QUITE A FEW. Won't elaborate...I'll just say my team might get lowest score...
So, after all the crap with the interviews, robot running, inspection, we went to Macs to eat. Not surprising. NO LUNCH LEH. >.<
And yeah, home now. Chiong hw arrr.
BTW something to clarify: The IP kias mentioned in the last post DID DO SOME WORK. Okay, that's all. LinYing happy? =)

2009-01-09T04:35:00.001-08:00

CCA Showcase was fun. LOL Robotics plays Counterstrike 1.6 AND Source, good reason to join right? =)
Seniors and IP kias came back today to help with the showcase. Actually, only SK (senior) helped. Every other person (IP kias) slacked. 0.o
So, yeah, I was in charge of the NXT booth. It WAS popular, I tell you. Just my skill. =)
Nah, actually I have to thank Aaron (Poh) for majority of the programming, and Yi Yang for some of the construction. I helped with most of the presentation. =)
Advertising was fun. Shouting match with Janice LOL. Robotics VS Concert Band. Oh, and I attempted to paste fliers using prepared masking tape to the backs of some UG people. =)
And, err, yeah, we actually played Counterstike while the NCC kias were killing each other and saying "MONSTER KILL!". 0.o
So, yeah, update more tmw.

2009-01-07T04:04:00.000-08:00

Yes, massive change to my links. I reordered every link I had. Although truth to tell, I didn't even arrange my past links. =X
BTW, for the 2K-ians I have't linked yet, your turn will come someday this year, not to worry. I'm just a little too busy now.
So, yeah, QUITE an okay day today. I sense that Chinese lessons MIGHT potentially suck. I dunno yet, but I think so.
Got into PW groups during Homeec today. 3-people group. An average group has 4 people. Taking it as the workload of a person in a 4-people group is 100%, a person in a 3-people group would have to do...
100% x 4 = 400%
400% / 3 = 133% more times the work. This is saddening mathematics. 0.o
Well, at least nobody looks like a slacker to me. =)
Oh, and any flood or global warming-related quizzes from anyone? I need some urgently. Thanks.

2009-01-03T08:08:00.000-08:00

First post of 2009.
I updated my Fanfiction.net profile. YES, I'M RETURNING. EVERYONE CHEER. xD
Okay, so nothing much to say now. I changed the blogsong too. Hope it's nicer. The sound quality is better anyway. Thought of placing I Don't Love You (Piano Tribute) on the blog too. Any suggestions?
Anyway, a video here for fun. I like this version of Crawling In The Dark by Hoobastank. Don't judge the song by the violins - It's a metal song. =)
BTW it WILL be quiet for the 1st minute or so - Nothing wrong with the video.

Alright, long-ass New Year post on the way. I'm bored.
Actually, there are a few things I started in 2008. Some are bad habits, others are good things to discover. They are:
2008 is the 1st year I seriously started slacking a little. That's kinda bad.
2008 is the 1st time I went out with friends. Late, I know.
2008 is the 1st year I broke away from the com and had an actual life, if for a short while.
2008 is the yearI discovered my (arguable) talent in writing.
2008 marks the 1st time I actually quit doing something I enjoyed for the school. (Writing)
2008 is the year the Weirdos were born!
2008 is the year this blog was created.
2008 is the 1st year I got below B3 for something other than Chinese. That's sad.
2008 is the 1st year I actually felt that I wasn't anyone at all. I grew much humbler, but my self-confidence took quite a beating too.
2008 is the year I evolved from being an irritating nerd to a real pain in the ass. Not good.
2008 is the 1st year I got a gaming console that I fully understood the moment I bought it. (PSP)
2008 is the 1st year I actually did research on a product I wanted to buy. (PSP)
2008 held my worst academic results ever.

Okay, that's all for now. I might continue this post another day if I feel like it. Lol.

So, an early Happy New Year, peeps. 1st January 2009 in a few hours. I both look forward to and dread it. 0.o
Okay, so an update of the past few days' events:
Monday was CCA. All the Sec 1s for RGP didn't come. At least the MM ones came. =)...But then again, all our seniors in RGP ever did was sit around with their super-modern (at least compared to my Toshiba which still uses Platinum 2) lappies and play DotA or CounterStrike. Well, at least some of them got started on training at the end.
MM people are more hardworking. =)...Having been in Taiwan for so long, I had a lot to catch up on. Well, learning about algos, that is. Which took me 1 session of CCA. 0.o...although it PROBABLY isn't too perfect yet. Oh well.
Joe was pretty hilarious during CCA. He kept running to Lee Hao to watch - and advise on - him DotA(ing). Immediately after, there would be this "JOEEEEEE" from one of us MM people, and he would run back to training. Lol.
So, New Year in a few hours. I've said that already, haven't I?
Good luck for 2009. Wish me luck too, because I get this feeling things CAN get worse.

Happy New Year,
DNAndrew
