Revival :)

Alright man. After much persuasion and complains from many, I've decided to revive this blog for this once since I don't have any single mood to do my work anyway.

Many many things have been happening recently. School has been really mad. The hectic lesson schedules and all the assignment deadlines to meet. And exams are like right after Chinese New Year. Like =.=. There's so much to catch up and yet I'm still sitting back and relaxing life.

Fine, putting school work aside. There's this thing that has been bothering me and keeping me really distracted. I hadn't been voicing it out because I believe that you guys will be able to overcome this together. It feels really suffocating to be sitting on the fence, and being caught in the middle, and having to play the mediator everytime you guys talk about one another. As much as I wish for things to revert to what they used to be, I know it's rather impossible right now. And please don't get me wrong if you guys happen to read this, I'm not complaining or anything, just needed a channel to voice out my thoughts.

Photos on Teachers' Day celebration on the 31st :)

Alright, let me sum up my week then.

Monday was out with the girls to Ikea for lunch and then to Bugis :)

Tuesday was out with the usual NP gang for lunch at Maxwell Food centre. We travelled all the way there just for the curry rice. But apparantly only Zhengyang and I ate the curry rice while the rest had their own choice of food. Haha.

Wednesday was spent rotting at home with my bro and we got so bored to the extent we started playing Monopoly. Haha.

Out with the girls again on Thursday to Botanical Garden for picnic and also to celebrate Alicia's birthday in advance :)

Went for Comex IT show today with Raymond, Zhengyang and Wenqi. Good thing Raymond drove because I was too lazy to take any public transport. Haha. Off to TPY after that and Raymond headed home first so it was left with the 3 of us. Hanged around till 6 plus and Raymond called to say he's coming to fetch us. Went to TPY Lorong 8 to have crab feast with the Area 4 people. Proceeded to Icekimo after which. Headed home at around 10 plus :)

Pictures from the past few outings:

Out with the girls at Pizza Hut :)

At BBT playground

And celebrating Melvin's birthday at Waraku

Had Maths paper this afternoon. Rather disappointed with myself actually. It's not that I wasn't able to tackle the questions, but more to that I was just not in the right state of mind to do so. Sigh. Handed in the paper earlier cos I was feeling too demoralised to carry on.

Headed down to KCP with Kahseng. Dinner with the usual gang at Adam food centre. Then went to Ice cube at Thomson cos it was full house at Island Creamery. The ice cream and mudpie that Wenqi, Bryan and I shared was, yummy! Especially the mudpie :) Left at around 10plus. Okay this is where the joke of the day begins:

Rena and I took 163 back home without realising that the bus was heading towards Sengkang. Eugene and Xiangjun ran over to the bus we were on. Eugene was whacking the door so hard that it was vibrating and Xiangjun was waving frantically to us, telling us that we were on the wrong bus. And some auntie was looking at both of us like we were some toot. Started laughing non-stop and receiving calls from Zhengyang and Wenqi which I shan't reveal the contents here because it's within the few of us :P Actually more like it's too retarded to be revealed la. But never mind. It's a different experience for both of us though :) Right? Haha.

Okay, I'm finally able to post as blogger was kind of screwed for the previous few days. So yup, here are the photos from Fer's and Jas's birthday celebration on the 18th and 21st July :) Will be posting only a few though, go to Felicia or Belle's blog for more pics :)

Yup. Had practical again on Wednesday.

The "Turning" machine.

Weng Tat doing turning.

Okay, this is supposed to be posted long ago, but ya, that's the cubicle for welding.

Had IS class on thursday :) Met Rifah, Yanli and Jiahui earlier to have lunch together. Had a written test which was a killer paper, did our CQ presentation after that. Mrs Kan commented that it was good. Well done peeps! One more to go and we're done. Thailand, done. Next stop, Africa! Haha.

IS peeps :)

Went to school from only 8am-9.30am on Friday. Skipped the 1pm-5pm lessons. Went to find Kianhow and Xiangjun at AMK mac. Helped out with Miss Yip's scrapbook. They left me to do the bio, which was the most difficult one. Yea, Xiangjun say it's child labour. But never mind, it's for Miss Yip anyway :) Haha. Chester joined us after that. And just to highlight something, 3 batches of Marine & Offshore people mainly Chester, Xiangjun and I skipped school together on Friday. Wasn't planned beforehand though. Cool. Haha. Went down to KCP after that to help out. Kahseng came over from school to KCP and we headed to Bugis to get Miss Yip's present. Anson met us for dinner at J8 and we did a bit of Miss Yip's present. Brought home the stuffs to finish up the photo album. Stayed up till 3plus just to finish it.

Woke up at 6plus on Saturday to meet the 17th batch for breakfast at Prata Place. Wrote down our message to Miss Yip on the photo album and headed to KCP after that. Pictures from Passing Out Ceremony shall be posted another time after I get hold of them. Haha. Lunch with 17th batch and Bertram at Mos and headed home to catch some sleep after that.

Alright, I skipped lessons again today. Apparantly I was supposed to wake up at 7am but I pressed the wrong button and stopped my alarm instead of snoozing it. So by the time I woke up it was already 7.30plus. Was so reluctant to go to school since I know I'm gonna be late but somewhat just dragged myself out of bed, got myself ready, and rushed out of the house. Went for Autocad lessons and I decided to go off and skip Engineering Materials. Went to meet Kianhow and Zhengyang at AMK hub for lunch. Chatted during lunch, which feels really good. It's been long since the 3 of us got together for a proper meal and chat, unlike what we used to be. Accompanied Zhengyang walk to NYP. And we walked back to AMK hub. Kianhow suggested pool but somewhat I was lazy for it. So we walk around, then home after which.

And ya, Happy Birthday to Wenqi!! :)

8:08 PM(:

Finally it's friday! Phew.
Same thing, gonna summarise my week again.

And know what's the good news? Monday was my last day for practical. Which means to say, I'll be ending school at 1pm on mondays and no more long pants and covered shoes on mondays! :)

Tuesday: Mum and Dad fetched me to school after having breakfast together. Thinking about it, it's been really really long since I last had breakfast with my parents. Had 5 hours break on Tuesday cos the Engineering Materials teacher was absent. Stayed in school for 5 hours just to attend an hour of lecture. Pathetic. Met fer to go home together. Bertram happen to take the same bus as us. Saw a familiar face boarding the bus at NJ's bus stop. It was Darius. Told Bertram that it was Darius, but he refused to believe me and rebarked that Darius doesn't look like that. Then Darius kind of heard our conversation and turned over to look at us. Damn paisey can. So we placed a bet. And before we alight from the bus, Bertram went forward to ask Darius if he was Darius. Then Darius was like ya? And his expression was super funny man. So yes, I've won the bet and Bertram Khoo Li Fu owes me a meal at Makan Place. Fer was laughing at the both of us throughout the whole journey though. Haha.

No practical on Wednesday cos it was my group's break. So no accidents happened :P
Went to school at 1pm and ended lecture at 2.30pm. Went home after that. Found out something that was really really disappointing. Shan't elaborate more on what happened, cos I don't see a point in doing so either. Still in the midst of getting my thoughts sorted out. Yeah.

Thursday: Went school at around 11am to rehearse for the presentation afterwards. Then only then we found out that one of the group members is on MC. So our presentation is being pushed to next week instead. Was very pek chek with one of the members. She was grumbling about why our presentation always gets pushed backwards and why that person fell sick at this time. Then all of us suan back, sick can choose date one meh. Managed to shut her up for a moment. And not only that, when other groups were presenting, she kept pointing out the things that the other groups missed out in their presentation. Like what the hell la. Yes, though she's one of my group members, but I just can't stand people like this. Where's her team spirit man. And how will this benefit her by putting the other groups down? Like come on la, we should be working together as a class and supporting each other instead of putting them down right. Suan-ed her after class ended. Can't blame me. She brought it upon herself. And all of us deliberately walked to the bus stop together and dao her there. Class unity. IS class rocks man :)

Took bus with Felicia and Yanli. Headed to J8. Hung around at bbt playground while waiting for Sandra to arrive. Went for tomyum after that and Fer went home after accompanying me to wait for Sandra. Accompanied Sandra until her mum comes but apparantly her mum didn't meet her in the end. Haha. Headed home soon after finishing tomyum. Was fretting over my choice of elective that I didn't study for my test today. Talked to Jianjie over the phone and he gave me lots of advise, so much so that he changed my mind about taking up Aviation Fundamentals. Makes sense, no point knowing only the theory and not going for the practical. I know I feel very 不服气 if I were to only learn the theory and not being able to go for the practical. So ultimately, my final decision is Diploma plus in Workplace Safety and Health. Don't ask me why I went for this. Merely followed what my heart told me to. Like what Sandra said, decision is made already so no point thinking back, at least i know I will be able to cope with it. And thanks a lot to those who gave me advices and encouragements to help me make up my choice :)

Okay, as for today. Had test in the early morning which I screwed it up as I wasn't studying for it the previous night since my mind was kept occupied with the elective thingy. Okay I know, plain excuses. Haha. Then lessons till 4pm, headed back with Chin Yan after that. We were so reluctant to get off the bus even though the stop has reached. Haha.

Meeting the clique tomorrow :)

7:53 PM(:

Just here to post up some overdued pics since blogger was somewhat down and the pictures couldn't be uploaded.

Seoul garden :)

Also, a summary of this week:

Monday: Nothing much, lessons as usual.

Tuesday: Went for the Marine Carnival. Just sat there to witness the secondary students compete with their semi-submersibles and quiz session. Sat beside Sherywn who went nuts and out of the blue, he clapped damn loudly and everyone in front looked back suddenly. We were sitting at the last few rows somemore. Super embarassing yet funny. Thanks to Mr Sherwyn Koh. Haha. Took pictures of some of the marine and offshore models too.

Some of the other pictures can't be posted, due to commerce reason, as what the lecturers said.

Wednesday: Had MIG welding. Partnered with Melvin. I nearly died. Held the torch too far away when I was suppose to hold it 10-12mm from the workpiece. Just this little difference and all of a sudden, fire sparks formed and started flying all over the place. The sparks hit Melvin on his arm and hit me on the head. For a moment I thought my head was on fire cos it felt so hot, but luckily it was just the spark. Phew. I think I really suck at workshop stuffs. Last week I burnt a hole in the table and this week, I nearly killed myself. It won't be surprising if I were to die anytime when doing practicals. Haha. Right, here's a picture of welding in case my explanation is very vague. See, I have to be in such thick clothing when I'm welding in an environment of about 1600°C, wearing protective gloves that restricts my hand movement, and a stupid shield mask whereby I can't even see my own fingers when wearing it. That's why I hate practicals man.

Thursday: Went to school early in the morning to compile the IS project that has to be presented in class later in the afternoon. In the end, presentation being postponed to next week. =.=

Friday: Went to school late cos morning's lesson was e-learning. Attended boring lessons as usual. Rushed home after that, then to J8 to meet the np gang. Went prata house followed by icekimo. They went K after that and Kahseng, Zhengyang and I went home since I have not completed by e-learning.

How I wish next week will pass really quickly. Real quickly, cos next week is so gonna suck man.

10:49 PM(:

School's started and all the work is really beginning to pile up. Sucks.

Had arc welding last Wednesday. Partnered with Weng Tat and it was really funny. We couldn't get the electrode started. So the teacher came in and he was like "see ar, just like that and like that", and he lighted the electrode without us wearing our shield mask. So yes, the teacher nearly blinded us. Because anyone who looks directly with a naked eye into the electrode when it's operating for more than 5 seconds will become blind. So it was like what the hell la. Anyway, as usual, I couldn't achieve a nice weld on my workpiece and this time round Weng Tat helped me complete my work instead. I think he also 看不下去 after seeing me continuously welding on the wrong part of the workpiece, worst still when I burnt a hole in the table. But can't blame me also can, I can't even see my own fingers with the shield mask on, let alone to weld the workpiece. Haha. Then when I was doing the welding he was beside me and kept saying "slower, slower!" And when he was doing his welding I was beside and kept saying "lower, lower!" Didn't do it deliberately but it was cos I was too fast when handling the electrode and his was too high. Damn funny, maybe only those who have done it before then will know why. Welding again next Wed, better pray hard that my partner will be Weng Tat again cos I'm so gonna flunk my practicals. Sian.

有时回想起当初做了那盛大的决定就该料到有今天这个下场。明明很清楚自己要的是什么，但却还理直气壮地做了个愚蠢的决定。坦白说，我还对团体生活念念不忘。原本还以为自己能够大大方方地把它放下，潇洒地把它抛到九霄云外，至今仍然无法办到。说得对，早知今日，何必当初。现在后悔又有什么用。除非时光能够倒流，不然这一切也只是镜中花，水中月。

P.S: Zhengyang, I've blog in chinese as promised :)
