arghh /23:59
Hated myself to fall at this time period.
Losing focus + alot of time i may or may not be able to make up for.
-.-
Worried.
/23:11
Yesterday, had been a horrid & miserable day.
The fact that it was raining, didnt help much either.
I was down with stomach flu, and the "royal-throne" was pretty much my seat/sofa/bed for most of the day.
Much worse was that i'd fever & missed out one whole day of crucial revision.
that sucks.
i'm guessing it was the chicken talk i ate for dinner.. damn!
Today was much better, but still nt the good either.
Medicine was making me feel all in circles, that work seem far-fetch..
hais. wad a day.

The Ghan Railway in Aussie (North - South Aussie)
French Alps
Trans - Siberia Railway as seen from space!!
I can go from beijing - UK
Candian Rockies
Blue Train (South Africa) Johannesburg - Cape Town
_____________
This post is dedicated to Dad, & the great trains and railroads of the world.
Happy Birthday Dad! sorry i forget to wish you earlier, exams aye!
I think trains and rail journeys are just one of the most awesome things on earth.
Was watching lonely planet just now, and i was captivated by the amazing journey made by the Ghan in Australia.
I mean, look trains are everywhere. they bring you to the most serene and nature places.
Like wow, Beijing - UK is connected by rail!
& the photos are just beautiful.. =)
Isnt it great to go on a rail holiday? Everyday u wake up and u're in a different setting.
just wait.
hahas, well back to sch stuff.
Down with PED & CCS. two more to go.
At last, i cleared CCS, the feeling is like throwing a heavy bag off the 5th storey or sth.
Resting tonight, and tml's back to the books!
Hope.
ccs still suck /15:53
Warm, sunny Saturday. Cant understand.
CCS is such a chore to learn & do.
pls take a matchstick & throw it into the safebox holding that module (just CCS, dun request more)'s paper.
Burn!! waahaa..
i need an adrenaline rush pls.
Yes Rain! /23:57
HA! the floodgates of the skies opened as i hoped.
yea!
was planning to head to sch, but since it rained, decided to hang back and do up the online quizzes.
As i was afraid i would fall asleep and not do anything productive, had a (i would say) not bad instant noodle lunch [aunt got this curry one from a japan fair in a mall - quite tasty!].
den headed to sch.
anw, liken it when it rains, it sorta lightens the mood & put ur mind in a proper gear to do work, though the work is CCS, which ultimately equates to sucks in the end.. lol
The rain stopped, & the evening kick back into a cool breezy one.
Went to ghim moh coffeshop for dinner @astons, then to holland V for starbucks and relax..
Nice!
Parted ways and took a train home, though i was rather disturbed by the smells it brought along as it passes by a few 'stops'.. -.-
its nice to take the train once in awhile, but all that is gona change soon, aft the govt decided to put up those ugly looking platform screen doors.. at a costly 126 million too..
No feel alr la, its like putting a huge piece of glass in front of ur tv when ur fav show is aired.
Perhaps shd learn from thailand where ppl queue & NOT PUSH to board the train, giving way to alighting ppl; & a guard stationed on each platform to blow a whistle whenever one crosses the yellow line.
isnt that so much better? or rather cost effective.
Everyone shd have some self discipline & common courtesy lah..
or maybe its cause sg is too fast paced alr, everything and everyone's always rushing/
ohh well..
exams, gd luck everyone! jiayou for mugging..
-N.A- /23:36
study.
Here comes the time of the semester again when temper flairs and cursing at its peak.
its kinda frustrating to do a paper w/o proper solutions or even worse; hastly handwritten ones.
CCS sucks.
I received my NS letter today.
a wave of motivation swept me to remind myself to train and keep fit before going to tekong.
oh yes, NAPFA.
hope it rains soon.
so warm.
/17:32
am in school now.
12:00 read the time on my clock.
i rubbed my eyes bewildered and wondered if the time stop.
to my shock, it hadn't and I was late.
i had slept for 8hrs before i knew it. wow.
$13.40 read the fare on the cab's metre.
-.-
am getting fed up with doing the S & C quiz,
I better motivate myself to start hardcore studying soon.
hais.
exams are chores.
haiss /23:28
i know its bad to begin a post with "haiss"
but i gotta do so..
past 2 lab tests were just horrid, screwed up quite badly.. was obviously know how but ?? i duno la, wth was i thinking or doing, getting so paranoid over the smallest error.
-.-
ped pbil seems to be on track, still lots to be corrected though;
FYP side too, did up one half of the shoe & the new deadline is 17 Sept 09, 0830hrs.
End product.
exams are starting again, cant help be worried, had been losing focus for this term, am just hoping it doesnt spirals down out of control..
On better note, i tried 5km ytd and i did it in 26:20, not that "good" a timing, but i know i'm ready for KK!
Here i come, via ferrata!
excited abt taking a plane again..
i better post here so as to constantly remind myself to take whatever free time i have to pick up my books to revise!
& oh yes
impt.
isit me or the weather that is linking me and mosquitoes? omg.
& i keep getting funny ppl to sit next to with me on the bus these days..
lol.
smiles
Music /23:42
Music is the answer.
had a dream last night.
made me thought of this "what will the future hold for me.."
still alone and a Pentium one..
to be honest, i aint that optimistic nw, considering i've none of an aim..
hais.
Lab test, projects coming up.
exams. poof
L-O-V-E /22:08
"Love is to give and expect nothing in return.. "
I heard this on tv mobile during the ndp segment, pondered for awhile & thot;
Though its simplicity in its meaning, its also this simplicity that we always cared-less about, neglect about...
Caught part of the ndp re-run too.
Loved the march-past segment as usual, looking at them in the shiny boots and uniforms, so smart and unified.
& the single bang.
I went to ntuc just now and bought 5 apples for $1.95, decided to run this experiment to see how just the quote "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" works out. ;)
Maybe its true, apple the healthiest fruit?
hahas.
Working towards a healthier, better me.
L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore can
-Nat King Cole 1965
Cheers peeps.

Today's weather is super duper hot & warm, not to mention hazy too.

Not too mention that i wore jeans and long sleeve on tues, one hell of a day, though i was looking gd.

anw, took time off and took a run today. A long one.
with nj, ebon, thom, duanx2.
"casual" ran to kent ridge.
it was a gd run, nice companion & took my mind off things for awhile.
but there are some that always did remained. Arrived back to clubhse, to find that thom got the wrong key. LOLs.
theory proven: SPA clubhse is burglar proof.
Thanks to mr lee who kindly came down to save the day
& so that we all can have dinner & head home.
tml's another long day. 8am gems. den class adjoined til 3pm.
omg what i gona do.
/15:53
why do things work out fine, work out once for others & i had to be the one to be re-doing it twice, thrice, fries.
it sucks.
it bothers me abt my "disability" to absorb.
I was so close, just that margin of error.
I berthed, just at the wrong mark. but demoralizing fact was that it read "Did not berth" on the score sheet.
more disappointing was the big Failed.
to think i thot i passed, counting the chickens before it hatches.
Total disappointment.
I've achieve nothing today.
sucks.
