Yawn....I just can't seem to sleep early these days. Went to meet Sze Jet and Zhan Hui at Orchard MRT. We bought tickets for I am Legend and then settled for lunch at Subway, which quite frankly, I am getting real sick of. Anyways, I asked for terriyaki chicken, yet that women had to give me something else. Gosh, I wonder if people do listen to what the customer is requesting. If they are not sure they should have asked right? Anyway, later went to taka just to walk around. Gerard called and told us he was at Borders! HAHA, THE MOMENT I MENTIONED THAT, JET AND ZHAN WENT ESTATIC! I guess, people are real desperate to see "her". Sorry, can't mention her name here cos of confidentiality purposes. Rushed over to borders, and gerard got the shock of his life. HAHA! It was my first time seeing his "metallic grin" (note:copy from owen's msn nick) We wanted to stalk him so that we could finally get a glimsp of her. To our dismay, Gerard ran away. Argh damn it! Oh well, there is always next time. Watched "I am Legend" Nothing much to say about that show except that Will Smith has seems to have a compelling need to show off doing his exercises in all his movies. After that, we had to leave Sze Jet as we were going to ECP. Felt bad having to make him come all the way just to watch movie. Will make up to him some other time. Proceeded straight to ECP on bus 16. Waited for DX for quite a while as Zhan told him to go to Victoria instead of Parkway, which complicated things. Oh well, we rode all the way to Changi Beach this time. John was roller blading with Winston. As he was a novice, he took quite a while to get the hang of it. They didn't follow us to Changi beach as it was too great a distance to travel. The bike we rented was so difficult to ride. It was extremely taxing. No wonder the guy said he is willing to give us 3hrs to cycle instead of 2, because one hour would be spent on resting. Next time when I go to VJ, visits to ECP will be a commonplace. We went to eat at Jumbo Seafood Restaurent after that. WOW!!!! Seafood rocks! The crab was simply amazing!! HAHAHA! I WISH I COULD'VE EATEN MORE. But due to the limited financial resources we had at our disposal, there was a limit to the amount of food to eat. Very satisfying meal indeed. HAHA talked a lot of crap as well. These are memories of SJ ppl that I will remember. Especially since 2008 is nearing, we will eventually go our seperate paths. Took a cab back after the meal. It was already 10pm. Had to rush back. Damn LTA, the taxi fares have gone up exponentially. My trip back home cost $15! What a ridiculous amount! Oh well, I guess its the fate bestowed upon us. Might as well just accept it. But still, damn LTA. Oh yea, my orientation group leader called me, her name is Melissa. Turns out I'm in Osiris, same group as Julian LOL! And I am also in the same sub group as him (ogre). His leader is Sheryl. I wonder how many orientation leaders there are? Oh well, I will find out soon. ^^ Looking forward to VJC!!!! Woot I'm extremely happy to have made it there. I'm praying that my O level results will be good! I want to stay in VICTORIA!

Woot! After being in a freezer for 1+ week, the warmth of Singapore truly feels like a blessing. Went to a lot of FANTASTIC places! Endured a torturous 12 hr flight to and back from Europe! Went for movie marathon on the plane! Argh! So many things! Oh well, going to watch movie, so I will blog about Italy and London later. Gosh! I came back on Christmas Eve, thats kind of last minute. Oh and err, pls forgive me if I didn't buy X'mas presents, the things down there are freaking expensive, even a bottle of coke costs about S$5-7, pls rmb i need to mulitply by 2 due to the Euro dollar, so its technically the same as the prices in Singapore times 2. ARGH! LATER! I'm going to sleep......ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

WOW, splendid, 10 years of hatred and I finally get to shoot everything. Finally, after 10 years of waiting, I have finally managed to disown that worthless piece of shit in my house (AKA ex-brother) I think it would be better to be a single child, after all, I have my fantastic friends, I do not need a useless entity to be a bogus brother to me. Maybe you may ask why I am so irrational? Oh well, here goes the story...... since 5, my brother has never talked to me. Everytime, he would exclude me from whatever he had. Whenever we see each other, he will just turn away. To be, it felt as if I was staying with a stranger. He shouts at us, he doesn't show any love, he is literally a bastard. I do not usually use such words, but seriously, he is a fucking bastard, and I really hope he meets with misfortune everyday of his life. I hate him so much that I do not want him to die, but rather, live on in torment everyday. Seeing him suffer is all I will do to make sure that he remembers this life when he moves on ultimately. Nothing much to say about him because I do not know such a person, from now on I have no siblings, only myself.

Omgosh, I totally forgot to blog on that day! Apologies to SJ ppl! Went out with SJ last thursday! After so long of not going out, going out with them was ultra fun, especially reliving the memories when we were still in SJ. Haix... really will miss them after this holidays. Made splendid friends whom I will remeber for the many years to come. Oh yeah, met at Vivo city. CK brought his caucasian cousin along, which made things a little akward (no offense to CK). We ate at Sushi Tei again, the one at Vivo which I ate with Gerard, Sze Jet and Gerard the time before, I think it was the day 'O' Levels ended. Omg, and through our conversations I found out that Xian Yii went to "match-make" Yvonne (from GESS) with Jonas (from MSHS). Not being rude or anything, but I thought the idea itself was revolting. HAHA, and according to Xian Yii, they were steady immediately after they met. GOSH!!!!!!!
Afterwards we waited at GV for the commencement of the movie. Guess who we saw? It was Lin Qian with Tian Wen again. HAHA!!! This is the 2nd time i've bumped into Lin Qian at vivo. The best thing was that the were watching the same movie as well! lol! Crap, I just realised I didn't take any pictures at all. ARGH, this entry is going to be full of words only!
Golden Compass 2.5/5 stars (my rating)
The cinematics and the CG was good no doubt, however the sequencing of the events throughout the show just left audience in bewilderment. I was perplexed and trying to comprehend what was going on. The fighting scenes were of mediocre standards, and the character's development is very poor. Overall, the show was an utter mess and needs serious rectification if its to gain my support for the triogy. I guess the only bad thing about LOTR was that it was of such epic proportions and was so magnificent that future fantasies would just suck in comparison to it. In my opinion, eragon was also a complete disaster. Oh yeah, speaking about eragon, haven't met up with Dionne, Dylan, Joey and Jason for a loooooooooooong time already! Gotta ask Dionne and the rest out again!
After the show there was nothing much, just went home straight. Hope there would be more outings with SJ ppl! Oh yea, the other outing with Lin Qian, Sok Ting, Christine, Siu yin, Reuben, DX and elliot haven't plan yet!!! Argh, I'm going to Europe so won't be back to plan, can someone else do it pls? Oh yeah, getting late, shall sign of here.
Fight on 8:28 AM
I realised that everytime I go out with Sze Jet and Gerard, I find myself leaving the house very early. Today woke up at 9am and did exercise from 0900-0930. Was extremely tired after that short moment of intense work out. Luckily I did it though, because I ate a lot of fattening food in the afternoon. Left the house at about 0945. Luckily for me the bus came immediately after I reach the bus stop. I must say that I am super punctual. We fixed to meet at 1030, and I exited the MRT station exactly at 1030. HAHA, amazing!!!!! Went to watch the 1100 enchanted show. YES I WATCHED IT AGAIN! Cos Sze Jet, Gerard and Zhan Hui haven't watched the show, so I just accompanied them. OMG, THIS TIME WHEN I LISTENED TO THE MUSIC FOR THE 2ND TIME I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS REMARKABLY BRILLIANT! Can someone give me the OST for the show??????? I know the lyric's corny, but I love it nonetheless. After the movie, Sze Jet was super high! Singing the songs from the show!!!! HAHA! When we were taking the escalators down, one lady accidentally bumped into a stack of boxes and totally neglected them. Why kind if ignorant people we have in society. As he just watched enchanted, Gerard try to call out for the animals to help pick them up with that "AHH AHH AHHHHHHHHH!" Like how Amy Adams did it in the show.
Oh yeah, we also met Jian Hong! Sze Jet and Gerard were stunned by his clothes, which wasn't a big surprise to me and Zhan as we've seen it many times. HAHA!! We walked to NYDC outside Heeren to eat lunch. Sze Jet was blabbering all about Elephantchino and how humongous it was. Ended up to be just a typical mug. HAHA! But we still shared the drink amongst ourselves. I ordered for myself a baked rice, which was delicious. Yum Yum, will start to eat at NYDC, he food is kind of nice.
Yeepee, after lunch we proceeded to Botanic Gardens to walk around and familiarizing ourselves with the place. We rushed over to the bus stop to catch the 174. Gerard has a psychological need to take new SBS buses. So we ran after it in order to pacify him. But the bus was NICE!!!!! Much better than the conventional ones we normally see. I was surprised Jian Hong did not complain about walking at all! Thats very rare thing!
At Botanic Gardens, Jian hong tried to use the map to navigate us around but to no avail sadly. We still had to depend on Sze Jet to orientate us. If not we would be clueless as to where to go.
Doesn't he look like a tourist??? 
JH after Sze Jet and Zhan tried to "torture" him LOL!Woah of all of us who tried to stop the ball, only Sze Jet was successful! HAHA! What can you expect from him, he is Mr Aw for a reason LOL!
After Botanic Gardens, it rained heavily. I was drenched. NO! My new shoes! Argh, luckily it was not dirtied or anything. Went to eat some ice-cream at Island Creamery at Serene centre. The ice-cream was fabulous, and not to mention very worth the money. A single (huge) scoop is only $2.50. Jian Hong, unfortunately detested his ice-cream, I think the flavour was burnt caramel (I think caramel is disgusting. No offense to those who love it ^_^)
Well the following images really speak a thousand words as to how Jian Hong found his ice-cream.
Just as he was about to lick it
After tasting it. He even had me put some eclipse sweets on it to kill of the horrible taste. He claims it tastes like butter.
Afterwards, took another bus to Holland V. Again, Sze Jet was the tour guide. We walked about doing literally nothing. Laughed at some items sold in the shops and just went about tiring ourselves. Hey, it can be quite fun doing this sort of things. I went to buy some bread from the bakery my parents always visit when coming to Holland V. In the end, we ate at Crystal Jade. Though we did spend some time deliberating as to which one to go to, as there were 2. I came to a shocking realization that Gerard can't speak Chinese for nuts. He couldn't understand what the waitress said. HAHA, luckily our waitress was rather humourous as she still entertained Gerard. HAHA!
Seems like he dislikes his food. Though he says its nice. Ironic ain't it?
I took a pic of Sze Jet acting cute! Omgosh! Its normal to think that he looks like a psycho in this pic. HAHA ok, but he is far from one!
After that went to Starbucks to relax on the Sofa. I drank one hot latte, which was VERY SWEET! I can't stand things which are excessively sweet man! Next outing Sze Jet's house, too bad I'm in Italy.
Oh well, there is still time after Christmas. Since I will come back on Christmas Eve, I guess I should say this first. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!! HAHA its real fun going out with these guys! Not only do we do things that other's won't do, but its also real fun and entertaining. Espcially with Gerard and Sze Jet being the ultra jokers!

JAM JAM JAM JAM JAM! That term is now synonymous with Orchard Road, which has seemingly become the hub for all cars during this period of time. With everyone rushing towards the CBD area for the Christmas fever, its no wonder thousands of people keep pouring into orchard area.
Went out to buy all sorts of winter clothes for my Italy trip. Gosh, that was seriously tiring. Got a few shirts and a Levi's jeans along the way, I must say it was a really worth while shopping attempt. I thought I would be going home empty handed, ended up buying things with every stop. Oh well, knowing my impulsive personality, I guess I could have overdone it haha! Ate at NYDC (sze jet's favorite eating place I think), the food was kind of nice I must say. I had one mocha with ice-cream in it, kinda cool! I think I should explore more places to dine at as the spectrum of places I usually go is rather limited. Oh I finally found out that my Octane (brand, not the alkane) shirts are from Australia. The funniest thing was when I was buying my luggage. The salesman told us it was a French brand.....manufactured in China... HAHA, my Mum instantaneosly said "eeeeeeeeee are you sure it won't fall apart? I do not trust products produced from that place" I also bought some Log cake that tasted fabulous.
YEEEEEEEEPEEEEEEEee this Thursday flying off! First time going Italy. 15 hours flight can really be endearing, luckily its business class, if not I think I may even start rotting on the plane itself. Oh well, its getting late. Ending post here.... period...

Wow! Today sure was a splendid day. Due to the fatigue of the camp, I overslept. I instantly knew that Sze Jet was going to be mad at me haha! Met Gerard, Zhan Hui, Wang Chang and Weihao at Bishan MRT station. I was ½ hour late and they sure were “infuriated”. We boarded bus 156, heading towards Serene centre to meet Sze Jet, Owen and Yu chen. Once we met them, I was punished for being late by having to carry the heaviest bag “sob…” We then proceeded to the Botanic Gardens to finalize the position for Justina’s surprise. Gerard coaxed her out by claiming he had troubling issues and needed Justina’s consolation. When Justina finally arrived, we gave her a huge surprise with Sze Jet’s self-made “HAPPY B’DAY JUSTINA!” banner. That was really spectacular.
Justina was absolutely surprised! Went for a little picnic at botanic gardens and played truth or dare. On one of Owen’s dare, he had to take a picture with a girl (stranger). He managed to take with without much deliberation, nice one OWEN!!!!!!!! On Justina’s truth, we found out the name of her first crush, its C_ _ _ _ _ _ _. Well she made us promise not to tell, so I can’t tell. At least you can try guessing. On my dare, they made me call Dionne, Lin qian and Sok ting and forced me to say “I love you” to them. HAHA, fortunately none of them picked up their phones. Subsequently, we had lunch at Mack Jack café. The food was decent, though it paled in comparison to the dinner. After lunch, Justina went off to meet her friends first while we went to Orchard. Sze Jet developed the photos taken at the Botanic Gardens to make our combined B’day present for Justina. Later, we went to Starbucks to kill off some time. We also discussed about how to go about bringing John Tey to surprise Justina during dinner. We then left for Plaze Singapura. Sze Jet, Owen and Gerard went to make the book for Justina while me, Zhan Hui, Wang Chang and Yu Chen went to play pool at Paradiz Centre. At 1830, we made our way to the Fish & Co. The restaurant was celebrating their 9th Anniversary as well! We settled down and began to prepare for the arrival of John Tey. We forced Justina to close her eyes shut, when he arrived, she was rather shocked (not as surprised as we expected though). It was hilarious seeing her face when she realized that our present was her husband. I must say, John’s a rather funny person. He was quite comical and fun to talk to. The Fish & Co. staff made a lot of noise as they celebrated Fish & Co’s 9th Anniversary. They had a huge cake which they distributed to every table. As we did not managed to buy a cake for Justina, we thought that everything just fell into place with the cake they had, though it was rather small. Ate the sumptuous Sword fish collar despite my sore throat. The portion was so big that I had to share with Yu chen, Zhan Hui and Wang Chang. After dinner, we chatted amongst each other for a while. In light of the atmosphere, we got the Fish and Co. staff to sing a happy birthday song to her. She staff forced her to stand on a chair in wearing a clown hat in front of the entire Fish & Co. There were also 2 other people celebrating their Birthday, so she was up there with 2 other women.
Went to collect the bill, WOAH, it was a whopping $195.25 (I think) I paid $50 so now I am absolutely broke. I just realized that John Tey was rather short, shorter than Gerard. HAHA, I think that just boosted Gerard’s already diminished ego HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!! This really was one of the best teacher’s outing I ever had! MAYBE NEXT YEAR WE WILL HAVE ONE MORE. NEXT TIME PLUS BABY TEY!
After that, I took an agonizing MRT ride home. Luckily had the company of most of them including Justina and John, if not it will really be boring. At YCK MRT, I met Si Jun. I haven’t seen him in a long while; he is still as comical as ever. WOW, PLEASE LET THERE BE MORE OF SUCH OUTINGS! REALLY LOVE THE DAY!
ALL THANKS TO SZE JET AND GERARD FOR ALL THE PLANNING AND HARDWORK TO MAKE THIS DAY A SUCCESS!!!!!!

Finally! I am finally backed to civilization. Those few days of strenuous activities were really putting its toll on my unseasoned body. This is a good indication that I seriously need to train up once more. All those months of intense focus on the ‘O’ Levels have distracted me from my own physical wellness. Participating in the camp really brought about a lot of new insights of the current generation of kiddos. I guess anyone would be distraught to see how “mature” these pathetic secondary one students are nowadays.
ERWIN, that is a name I will never forget. I cannot believe that at the age of 13, moving on to sec2 next year, he is clueless as to how to put on his clothes properly, how to tie his shoelace and is also unable to open a packet of instant noodles. It is really laughable, how can such an individual survive at this age like this. I guess this is how society breeds their offspring nowadays. The government has always boasted about our educational status, but when it boils down to these trivial issues, it is utterly disgusting. This would be absolutely detrimental to Singapore’s reputation. Interesting names popped out during the camp as well. There is this cadet by the name of Maverick. Not only is the name uncommon, but it sounds kind of cool as well.
Summary of entire camp:
Day 1: Very slack, all we did was see how the sadistic officers punish the cadets. I must say I was amused by it all. It can really be an interesting sight sometimes.
Day 2: We had to prepare for the 40th Anniversary celebrations. This was really torturous. Not only did we have to push the cadets to hasten their work, but we also needed to handle with a mountainous pile of logistics. The celebration went ok I must say. Despite the numerous setbacks encountered along the way, we were easily able to overcome them
Day 3: Went for a hike at Mac Ritchie. It was kind of boring at times, especially due to the lack of camaraderie amongst the cadets. Erwin cried at night for being forced to eat his vegetables.
Day 4: Packing, cleaning! That just about sums up the entire camp.
