hello. yet another loooooong delayed entry. firstly, school has started for almost everyone now, excluding the secondary school graduates. this is probably one of the best times in their teenage lives, a long awaited vacation off fcuking secondary school aka HELL HOLE, jail, and whatever else degrading nicknames you people give your respective sec schools. so sad that the O level results release date is getting earlier and earlier each passing year, to many of them, that day is dreaded.
yes, that vacation is truly relaxing but sometimes it gets toooOooO boring espeically if you slack the entire day at home, and repeat the same damn thign every passing day, so getting a job is a MUST. for the sake of $$ and killing of time. and how great is feels when you wake up late practically almost everyday at the start of a fresh new year, while some of your other friends are scrambling around their homes in the early morning, to go to SCHOOL, secondary school to be precise. HAHA. you school-kids.
in my point of view, i dread secondary school the most, because firstly, who likes to sit 6 hours in a classroom to force urself to study(most of us hate studying, undeniable fact), secondly, as GUYS, we have to adapt to one of the dumbest rules ever created. which is ; to keep really SHORT hair. i think girls hate school too but they wont suffer as much as they can still look good with their pretty hair. something to feel jealous about.
OK, and now, backtracking, as usual lorx. hEhEx.
31st december 2006, aka NEW YEAR'S EVE.
went to boonkeng's home for a New Year Eve BBQ. met them at Serangoon MRT at 2pm, and i was late by a few seconds. and ok la, we walked over to his home which was some pretty condom-minimum. BBQ was slated to start in the evening, and we're just going over to his house earlier just to chill out. then they decided to play cards, Taitee to be exact. and i have extremely low luck when it comes to card games, i dont understand. so i just watched them play at first, im realllllly reluctant to play because the last time i played card games was last year's CNY. and i lost fucking a lot of money over that. and i forgot how to play also.
5pm.
we're at da BBQ place near the swimming pool. dudes busy with the setting up of the fire, we just stoned around before the real thing began at about 7. i took a video using my laptop. a newly found discovery. and so, the food was ok la, the hotdogs were alright, the stingrays i ate, tasted better but most of the time i ate partially cooked ones. but the sotongs rock. i love chilli sotongs. they own over other stuff BBQed. and drank a little champagne. at first i thought it tasted like fuck, but after subsequent sips, it tasted quite nice. haha. but the shittiest part of the night for me was running away from the camera. they were trying to take a picture of me but i kept running away. hahah.
1145pm.
2007 is just around the corner...... we had already finished our BBQ like about an hour back. swell. and now, we're walking to Serangoon CC, or whatever it is. this is the first time i'm actually celebrating a big event in the HEARTLANDS, usually i celebrate in town, usually crawling with horny molesters on occasions like this. but for this year, there's a slight change. and ok la, the CC is bustling with a mixture of young and old, and the music like SHIT, ugly techno. i bet the ah lians and bengs love it. we went outside to the grassy area, and we saw Patricia mok and some guy i duno, hosting the countdown event. i hate patrica mok. ok. and so, we got free redbean ice-cream, and they taste great.
30 seconds to 2007.

and 2007!!!! fireworks lit the skies. they look so pretty. but a little too short la. then we went over to serangoon's 24 hour macdonald, chatted like crazy, tonned overnight, and took the first bus home the next morning.
and someee pictures from da BBQ. here's a close up of the sizzling shit on the grill.

and with my ninja reflexes, i dodged a camera shot.

the rest... playing with dynamite sticks.

i wonder how they were fast enough to take this picture..

Macbook promotion.

ok la thats it, damn lazy to upload further pictures because the blogger server is damn slow now.
as the first day of school draws nearer, i'm getting more annoyed because im still nocturnal. in terms of sleeping la. sleeping at 7am everyday and waking up in the late afternoon is like in my BLOOD. soo, i guess the fastest way to regain, "humanly" sleeping hours is to not sleep for a whole day, and see how it turns out.
MONDAY. (JANUARY 8th)
supposedly, my FIRST day of school, but i received a super late email the night before, indicating that i need not attend school because it is only for those in a different stream. great. i can sleep for the whole day. but last minute plans again, inod is be coming over mah place for a band jam session in my balcony.
the long forgotten balcony jam.
i havent played guitar for more than 2 weeks. so he came like 11+ am and i was dead tired, i think i only had about 1 and a half hours of sleep before his call woke me up, and i was damn lazy to move. so i took of my PJs, and slipped into my usual home clothes, the same thing la, patriotic shirt and the same damn pants. i have like 1094029 of those similar combinations of home attire.
3pm.
this time i dragged out the soft mat, a pillow, to the balcony, and also a packet of giant Pocky sticks which i bought downstairs, as a snack in case we get tired from playing.
730pm.
DONE. we're complete with our new song. after 4 hours of composing, we're really damn satisfied with the outcome. a brand new song from our band. plus we shot an amateur video of us playing it. arghhh, we're damn tired la. we took 3 takes to record the song on video, and on the final take, though there is still some minor mistake in timing at the end, we're really beat, so we just finalized that version, so maybe next time, we might record a better quality of the song, entitled "The Girl I Never Knew"
TUESDAY.
sian. the first day of school, and there is a mix-up of our timetables and we were told not to follow it since it's too messy. in the end everyone was really confused. so shitty la, what a start to a new semester. after the first day of school, i didnt know what's on the next day, so i declared wednesday a holiday, and went out to my friend's place. hahah.
ouch. it was a big mistake playing with one of her pets. she has 2 pet cats. i find both of them highly adorable, not until one cat suddenly scratched me and left me with a cut on my guitar PICKING FINGER. so i hated that cat ever since. i havent held a guitar pick since yesterday, this sucks. at first, it didnt hurt at all, blood was flowing profusely, i just went to the sink to wash the blood off, but after like 5 minutes, it seemed like the bleeding never stops. so i just let it be, and soon it stopped bleeding, and it was damn red. (maybe dried blood?) then later when i was using my laptop's mousepad to navigate around my laptop's stuff, suddenly my finger hurt like HELL. ouch.
TODAY. (thursday)
yeh, i woke up late, fuck. was told that i had some pop briefing at 12pm. but 1145am, i was still in serangoon, so what the fuck? i'm already late la duh, so after some hesitation, i decided to skip that and went to bugis to kill some time.while waiting for the next class to begin.. the weather was a bitch. it was drizzling when i was walking around serangoon in search of a bustop. and the drizzle got heavier over time, over at different locations too. Paya Lebar, the drizzle was okay, but once i reached Bugis, it turned gay.
1pm.
next class starts at 430pm, great i have all the time in the world. sat alone at BK, bought some dessert, and a large barley drink while connecting to the free wireless network in the area. Wireless @ SG's speed is at least 3000 times faster than the free service provided at Macdonalds. NOBODY was online, sian. browsed the usual sites until i got sian. then i whipped out my psp and starting playing till 330pm. and i got really restless by then, and started to move somewhere else.
went to KINOKUNIYA and browsed the japanese magazine corner for some time before making a move to go to school for CHOIR CLASS. ok, so i rushed there, and class actually starts at 530 instead of 430. i'm really early. choir class was the same. after that, there were no more lessons and it was really late already, 7pm. and the rain was POURING. i had no umbrella. after hesitating for 100 years, i finally decided to run through the shitty weather. and i become a wet dog.
argh, im tired already, i have school at 1pm tomorrow, which means i need to wake up like 11am.
but before i go, take a look at this, i ate IT, you cant find this in singapore!!

and im off. OYASUMI.
please dont try so hard to say goodbye.
and she will be loved
