Oh well, this will be the last post before entering the camp, which I hope would be an “enjoyable” experience. I went out with Sze Jet and Gerard again, with Zhan Hui as an addition today. Both Gerard and Zhan were late, so I went off with Sze Jet first to find something to much on for lunch. Oh well, I must say that Sze Jet is really an electric charger or something. Whenever my arm touches his arm accidentally, there is like a 8/10 chance of getting ‘shocked’ by his static. HAHA!! Oh well, Sze Jet was rather indecisive, he could not figure where to eat for lunch. I must say I was rather impressed in his knowledge of the various restaurants. He had comments for every single restaurant we passed by, some of which I’m completely oblivious too. I can’t imagine what goes on in his mind, probably accounts for the static from his body haha!
In the end we decided on Subway. Gerard and Zhan Hui finally arrived to meet us. Gerard was voicing his displeasure for Korea, considering it to be a “High class China”. I guess Asian countries, save Japan, have a long way to go with regards to their tourist attractions. Technically, the basic attractions are scenery, mountains, caves etc, which quite frankly, pale in comparison to some European natural attractions. Even so, the standard amenities are repulsive enough.
After that, we proceeded to KK hospital to find Dr John ***. I am not in the liberty to disclose any information yet though. Well, after that, it was time to visit CHANGI AIRPORT TERMINAL 3. I must say, it was impressive. The architectural designs were stunningly amazing. There were a couple of glass elevators like those in the international airport in Hong Kong. The terminal dwarfs the other 2 terminals, but to my astonishment, there were only 10 ticket counters. The Singapore government is getting flustered over land area and yet there is an apparent wastage of land. Oh well, everything to enhance the classiness of the Singapore’s international image. I guess if we want to sustain out title as World number 1 airport, we need to go to drastic measures to ensure that it retains its appeal. Aiya, pity I did not take any pictures of the place. After that, we went all the way back to Orchard to eat at Swenson’s. We all ate the classic baked rice, along with a regular Earthquake (yum yum ^_^). I was amazed at the incredible speed we took to finish the Earthquake. Gave Gerard most of the cherries! I really hate the taste of those cherries. Argh, I had to pay a huge sum again, haha oh well I guess it’s ok, why quibble over cash with good friends. Next, we went to shop for some items (disclose on a later date). Finally ended the day and went home. Fatigue has completely taken hold, I am so lethargic now. What is worst is that I have a camp to attend tomorrow. YEA YEA, I can’t wait for next week!!!!!

Yesterday we went to watch THE KINGDOM. Didn't expect to see dexter foo, huan yu, freddie, shu feng, calton chng as well. Personally I loved the show, I thought it was a great representation of the current crisis that plaques the world now. Make me want to cherish the safety that we have indulged it for out entire lives. Err some found the show boring, like that of a middle east documentary on terrorism. Oh well it depends on one's perspective. It has been a while since I've went out with sj ppl. It was a great feeling remeniscing on the old times. Pity some could not join us though.....

After the exams, never really had anytime to contemplate as to what to do during this period. The euphoria of post exam has finally subsided and now boredom takes hold. There is completely nothing to do, or at least, nothing productive. Perhaps I should have agreed to take on a part time job, which could help to kill of some time. Argh!!!! Everyone seems to be having so much fun, indulging in all sorts of entertainment. Where as for me, finding entertainment is a tedious task. Now I'm immersing myself in the anime world. On days when I do not go out, all I do is watch anime from morning to night. Taking occasional breaks to rest my eyes only. Anyways there are few movies I want to watch:
1.KINGDOM
2.ENCHANTED
3.I AM LEGEND
4.GOLDEN COMPASS
5.(NOT SURE AS OF NOW)
Ok now that you know what I wanna watch, please oragnize something to watch them please.^^

I realized this holiday can really be more fun than previously anticipated. Ok this post comes a little late because I had to leave my house in the midst of typing this post. Yesterday I went out to orchard once again. Seeing that same sight can really be sickening at times. Well I guess the company made a whole lot of difference. I met Sze Jet and Gerard at orchard MRT. For once, the entire station was not crowded, a rare sight considering the fact that orchard is always pouring with people. At first I thought I was early as I was the only one there, never would have expected that sze jet and Gerard had arrived earlier and were so bored that they decided to walk of to some place. ^^ Anyways, we proceeded to taka for dunno what reason. Subsequently, sze jet suggested going to to whelock place. Went to this shop on the 3rd level selling those items that girls like to play with. You know all the strings and beads and stuff. Oh well, for Shi ning I guess Gerard would sacrifice everything hahahaha. We later had lunch at taka’s Seoul Gardens. I must say that is really cheap for a buffet, only $10.90 (I think). We spent like 3 hours only eating meat. HAHA I still remembered the time when we went out with mrs tan-chin, ms foo and mr low, they all kept telling us to eat veggies. Oh well, boys are boys, we don’t like veggie ^_^. WOW, amazingly we talked a lot of crap there. Quite entertaining I must say. Sze jet was really a water tank, he went to the toilet so many times. Yeeepee, later I went down to search for a pair of shoes. Sze jet told me to look at diesel shoes. My first thought was, “are u sure? I always thought they suck” But I guess he was right, they were pretty nice. I saw 3 shoes in which I really liked. 2 of them cost $149 while one cost $159. They all looked nice. I really couldn’t decide for myself which was best. Luckily I had decisive people next to me like Gerard and Sze Jet. I considered for a few minutes then I just went on to buy it. Luckily there was a 15% discount, if not I would be going hope broke. Later, we went to have a coffee at coffee bean. We sat there discussing about Justina’s Birthday party. Well I guess its going to be quite elaborate, especially seeing the enthusiasm in both of them, especially Sze Jet. It only serves to show how dedicated they are to their teacher. HEY SZE JET, BETTER MAKE SURE THE PARTY IS FUN HOR!!!!!
Well today was extremely boring. Perhaps the only incentive was that I managed to find out where Jonathan lived. We talked rubbish and ordered Canadian pizza which tasted like crap.

Finally, I am done with PAE. It was a tedious task trying to fill in the 2nd options onwards. I was so perplexed and indecisive during the weekends, coupled with the stress of hatred for my parents about the Australia; I could really feel the strain that had on both my physical and mental faculties. Well since I was shrouded in confusion as to what choices I should make regarding my PAE, I tried to ask around to see what others chose. I thought perhaps I would observe some trend and probably just follow them. But it would seem that most people are quite adamant and are placing all their hopes on their first choice. Well I figured I should do the same as well, so I just went through the list on page 34 and allocated my choices with respect to the “increasing” cut-off points. So in the end, my final decision is as such:
1st-VJC (science)
2nd-TJC (science)
3rd-ACJC (science)
4th-AJC (science)
5th-SAJC (science)
I could not be bothered with the remaining 7 options so I just left them as a nil option. Gomenei Jonathan-kun, I’ve decided to put TJC as 3rd choice instead of 2nd. Well I only have one more chance to rectify anything on the PAE. Chikushou!! if only I did not screw up my English I probably wouldn’t have to be so flustered about all this. Onegai, let me go to VJC!
Anyways, over the past week I guess I have been through a terrible ordeal with my parents. Hopefully there will be no repetition of such events ever again. Oh my parents have allowed me to go overseas with my friends already so as long as there is prior notice. SO NEXT YEAR SOMEBODY BETTER ORGANISE A TRIP!!!!!!! For all those who sent smses to me, or tagged my cbox to comfort me, all I have to say is, “ARIGATO GOZAIMASU!!!!!!” And to my bro who is taking his exams now, “Oni-Chan gambatei!”

Ever since my parents said no to my Australia trip with my good friends, my mindset had a 180 degrees change. Since then, I have always cried in my sleep. Yes, I did. It’s a rather fucked up period. All they can say to justify their stand is that they are worried for my safety. IM FUCKING 16!!!!!!! Get that into your heads you idiots!!!!! Till now I have not forgiven them. Now I would not even talk to them, nor will I even discuss my PAE with them at all. I don’t give a shit about my father’s cancer anymore. Yes, that’s true. It was supposed to be a secret, but who gives a shit about their secrets. Since they did something to hurt me deeply, I shall just do the same. Do not say that they are doing it for my own good. I hate people who say that. I helped weiren plan they fucking Australian trip, thinking of the people to invite and stuff. How hilarious it is to not be one of those included. And why? Because some god damned bastards in my house just don’t trust me. I hate them to the core. I have always hated people who treat their parents badly, but this time the wound is too deep. I sacrificed my Italy trip with my cousin for what?? The whole fucking year has been a bad year from the start. Firstly, prelim one was a disappointment to me. I thought prelim 2 would be better. However, it just turned out to be another disaster. And if that wasn’t enough, my parents instantly said no to my Australian trip with my friends. Despite telling them that I would inform them about every detail, meet weiren’s mother (the only adult following us) and stuff. But their response brought no joy to me. And this happened one day before the A-maths O level paper, on that fateful Sunday. I lost my temper, I threw things around the house, I ignored my parents for one whole day. It was thing that could ever happen. Today I went to see them off for their trip. Hope you guys have fun!!!! I will be seating in Singapore rotting away. I have had one whole year of disappointment. I think last strike of the hammer has just changed my perception of life completely. Now I will never live for anyone ever again. I do what I like when I like it. When I saw them at the airport readying their luggage, a sudden sadness took hold within me. The pain was excruciating, literally, but for the sake of my friends, I held it in. During dinner, I was no longer able to control my emotions. I felt so extremely sad. Xian yii, dexian, weiren and zhan hui tried to comfort me. Thanks a lot guys I sincerely appreciate it. I’m so sorry that I had to show a little black face on the day you all were taking off. I just couldn’t control myself. I know all my holidays this year are gone. It’s the end of my O levels, but still it’s the worst holiday of my entire life. You know one of the reasons why I even volunteered to help out in the st john camp is just to do something with my friends. Ok gotta wipe off my tears a little now. The whole night I pretended as if I was just sending they all off. I tried to laugh, but every laugh was accompanied with pain. I told xian yii how much I hated my parents; he tried to help me understand what they are thinking. But I was totally obstinate; I didn’t care about what my parents’ thought. Anyways thank you xian yii, I know you mean well. When I was seating next to weiren, I told him about all the things that were going on in my mind. Some of them kept saying, “glen ang, you jealous you can’t go ah?” For god’s sake I was already very sad, need you all rub it in? I asked weiren for the activities they had planned. It was extremely awesome. Yes no doubt I was jealous, but more of it was directed as hatred towards my parents from stealing this opportunity from me. They say they will compensate by going somewhere nice next year. They do not even understand that’s its SO DIFFERENT to go out with your own friends. To add on, they are one of my best friends!!!!! Weiren tried to comfort me, saying that he will have more trips next time. But to me, I think that will never happen. Let’s look at it, after next year; everyone would have gone their separate paths. I’m only scared they will all forget me. The other day I added Andrew ong (primary school friend) on facebook. He had completely forgotten me, except for a brief impression that’s all. I am afraid that’s what will happen next year. Besides, next year I will be filled with JC work, I am not even sure whether I would be able to enjoy a holiday like this year. Why the world must be such as fucked up place? After the O levels, people are rejoicing and having the time of their lives. For me, I will just rot at home. No holiday at all! I so badly want to go on that trip. I would sacrifice all other holiday activities just to go with them there. I sacrificed my Italy trip for nothing! Italy is a so much better place than Australia. Yet I told my cousin I did not want to go because I was afraid it would clash with the Australia trip. I would rather go with my friends, after all it is a rare occasion.
Now that I’ve reached home, I am shouting at my parents for no odd reason. My mother just tried to find out what was wrong when I was typing this post. I shouted at her, “Get lost and go to sleep!” Normally I would regret saying such things. However now, I feel a sense of joy to see them in pain. They will never be able to mend the wound they have made in my heart, and I will not stop till they have suffered as much as I have. That means I will spend money like water during this holiday. I think I should spend money meaninglessly from now on. I will just buy expensive stuff; eat at high class restaurants only. Maybe that will make a hole big enough in their pockets! As a start, I have volunteered to pay for half of the chalet costs, about $200 plus. I intend to spend much more, so that I will make them regret the day they hurt my feelings and destroyed my dream to travel with my friends after O levels. At 16 they can tell me that they do not trust me to go overseas with people other than themselves. Since they do not acknowledge me as a teenager, fine, I shall appease them and act like a spoilt brat from now on, demanding money from them only. If they do not want to give me money, all I will do is to throw tantrums. You give me a fucked up holiday, I give you a fucked up life. Get used to it, you gave birth to such a son like me, I guess it was just your misfortune. I hate YOU! I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!!!!!!!!
Those of you who bothered to read this depressing blog entry of mine and understand how I feel I thank you.

Yesterday I spent one entire day watching 26 episodes of claymore. Initially, I was very reluctant because the graphics and the sound quality were horrendous. But after zhan hui’s persistence, I finally submitted. Wow and hell ya, it was nice alright! The claymores are damn cool, each being allocated a number which signifies their rank in the organization. Then you have these monsters called yoma (which you only see for a few episodes because the subsequent episodes were focused on awakened beings). The plot was intriguing and some of the characters were superb. But the intro sucked, same goes for the ending. But overall I guess I would have to give it a 3.5/5. Hey my anime standards are very high ok. The previous anime I watched (Law of ueki) is only worth a 2/5 for its serious lack of content in its plot. In other words, its was just a stereotypical anime with no twist or whatsoever.
Anyways, owen changed his blogskin, nice one man! Come this Friday we would have choose our JCs for the PAE. I’m exactly certain as to how many options we are to make but one thing that is definite is that my first choice will be VICTORIA JUNIOR COLLEGE (Science). Argh, since the open house I have fixed my mind on going there, there is no more considerations for the rest. As for the rest, I’m rather perplexed, should I put ACJC or TJC as the 2nd choice? My bro says TJC is boring, further more its going to be filled with those china people again, so I’m quite skeptical. At ACJC the environment is going to be SUPER good, but one thing would be transportation. Argh, I wish I wouldn’t have to bother about this and just go to VJC. I have always wanted to go to VJC since primary 6, too bad I screwed up PSLE and couldn’t go to VS.
Pros about VJC: Hot girls (especially since they outnumber boys by nearly 3 times)
: Nice environment
: Next to ECP
: Good education
: Students love the school (unlike mshs, where majority detest it)
: Good facilities (even though it pales in comparison to the rest)
: NICE canteen food
: Good educational options (like the subject combinations etc)
: Fun CCAs
: Good teachers (ok can’t conclude yet, but Ms Fong is one of them)
: A couple of mshs people are going
Cons about VJC: Why do all of the chemistry teachers have traits of being rude?
: Rather small
: Extremely far from my house
I feel that the Pros strongly outweigh the Cons. This is because the Pros are generally more all encompassing while the Cons are basically trivial factors that will arise, affecting only a small aspect of inconvenience. Most of the Cons are not detrimental to my interest and are only tiny sources of irritancy. Hence I can conclude that the Pros are way more important than the Cons. ^_^ L5

Yes, the torment has finally ended! The sense of exhilaration is engulfing me! HAHA, but that’s definitely a good sign. For once, I can do anything I want without worrying about anything at all. All the stress has reduced to naught. Yeah, I haven’t had this feeling for a long time. Well, I guess that’s the natural response that everyone will give. HAHA, I almost forgot that today is Linkin Park’s concert. Chong Kai called me and let me hear the songs. But the sound quality was horrendous. All I heard was Chester (the singer, not the marist guy), screaming and nothing else. Well of course there was the evident sound of fanatics who just can’t seem to control their pitch. That was torment to my ears. But if I was there, I would probably do the same. WHAT TO DO FOR 1.5 MONTHS! Well at least this week’s events are packed, YEEEPEEE! Its only going to get better! (I think) Got a few interesting “treats” that are coming up, even one surprise party (hmm, are u all really sure it will work: those who know what I’m talking about). Anyways, its up to you all to plan, I’m an extra anyway ^^. HAHA even though sze jet said that its ok, I still feel a little weird.

Yes!!!!! There is going to be 3KH games due to be released! 358/2 on DS, Birth By Sleep on PSP and Coded for mobile phones! Gosh, i want them all!!!! Hopefully someone lends me the respective devices for me to play them! Anyways what I'm hoping for is the main one, that is Kingdom Hearts 3. Oh well I guess they needed to take a break from kairi, sora and riku for one game, well thats acceptable. But i sure hope that they bring them them back for the 4th one. Sora, Kairi and Riku are perhaps one of the main contributing factors that have made the game successful. Now that KH has established it foundation and support base, I guess they can afford to be bolder. Nomura has said that the 3 games prior to KH3 would help create the setting for the 3rd KH, that only means i need to have them all, regardless of cost. If no one lends me their PSP or DS i would just have to buy them all. Anyways, these are things of the future, for now, i needa play final mix (I know it was released ages ago) so as to get myself updated on the latest KH issues. Does anyone have FINAL MIX? At least I would be able to clear at least 5 days of my holiday by playing FINAL MIX. Bring it on Tetsuya Nomura, lets see how far your creativity extends to sustain my interest for Kingdom Hearts.

Have they not considered the ramifications that students have to bear all because of their poor allocation of dates for the O level papers? It is utterly PREPOSTEROUS!!!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!! Anyways, I hope that after the Os, I won't seating at home lamenting over the HOLIDAY TRIP that i was denied of. From an ITALY and AUSTRALIA trip to nothing. I feel like i was just cheated of everything. Oh well, I guess what is not to be shall never be. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO FOR 1.5 MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!!!

It would seem that under the immense "stress" of the unofficial post exam period, people's attitudes have seemingly changed. As of recent, a lot of ridiculous activties have been surfacing. First and foremost, there is this ongoing issue of people impersonating other people on tag boxes. HAHA, u know what I mean. Why on earth are you people so obsessed on making other people frantic? Luckily I had "no" part in orchestrating such nonscence ^_^. Well, I have no idea who it is, so don't bother asking me.

This post is solely dedicated to the magnificent world of heroes. With characters like hiro, nikki/jessica, claire and peter, how can you not like HEROES? Not to mentioning the stunningly crafty plot that never fails to disappoint. Season one was really a blast! Despite being the pioneering series of its kind, it has definitely made its impact throughout the world. Even in Singapore, I was shocked to see that there are SO MANY heroes fans. HaHa, only signifies the number of bit torrent users as well! With all the fun I had watching season 1, i was obsolutely compelled to watch the 2nd season. The first few episodes of season two were rather pathetic. The whole idea of starting 4 months later was rather perplexing. I fear the elements of LOST were beginning to surface in HEROES. Whats worst is that some stupid HEROES strike is occuring now. Firstly they cancelled HEROES origins, which was already a big blow to fans round the world. Secondly, they are telling us that the season will end in 11 episodes?!!!!!! That is freaking ridiculous! I have dedicated a lot into heroes and now they are going to ruin it all by going on strike? If even a typical student such as me can get infuriated over such an issue, imagine the die hard fans. Ending the season abruptly at episode 11 is nonscence, especially when the climax of the series hasn't even come close to presenting itself. ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
