Well, yesterday went to play Lan with Bren, Daniel , Hansel, Joven and Bro. We played CS and DOTA. Bren did'nt die in DOTA at all lol?
We had lunch and went to TP to look at some stuffs. Daniel takes the bus towards bukit batok so he left us when we left TP, Bro had gone to collect smthing from a friend. So it was just Hansel, Joven and Bren with me. After Jovan and Hansel left. I met Gaya who was going to get stuff from TP. But as i looked pass her...i saw....you know....that person. I knew it was her, the haircut, the way she walks, the dressing style, the yellowish bag. I knew it was her. Bren was encouraging me to call her on the phone. But i did'nt. I met mum at the bus stop and we went to eat at Botak Jones. Its DAMN GOOD. As it says. The burger was BIG. When i mean big its BIG. Anyway we had cheese fries and i had the double botak. It was darn nice i tell ya. The cheese fries were heavenly but it was too much. Very filling i must say. Went home did some maths, learnt to hack a soda machine, did maths tuition with bro. Then went to sleep. Hui Han was messaging me as she needed someone to talk to. But i stopped replying not because i did'nt want to. I was too tired.
Woke up for Band today, did some maths in the morning, the room was messy...Went to school observed the sec 3's in training for LTC. Went up to the band room. Had sectionals and now here i am. I'm tired....zzz...by the way one of the school drink machines responds to the 4231 code. How funny lol..

I've been having a bad day and i know it. The only thing that can make me happy is her. I did bad for the papers, i'm afraid of Friday, i got 3 speeches, 2 camps, 2 CCA's , church and her to worry about. I'm having a terribly bad day. I even have a friend in need. I hope he makes the right decision..

You have a bad day
Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to gray
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carryin' on
Because you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Will you need a blue sky holiday?
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on
You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
(Oooh.. a holiday..)
Sometimes the system goes on the bling
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong
(yeah...)
So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Sunday, May 21, 2006This morning woke up at 6.15 for mass. Rather late. Got dressed and went to brush my teeth and got my stuff and got out the door fast. I thought i'd be late but on the contrary. After a whole day's worth of BF2 i was rather dead eyed ( red beyond belief ) , my objective was to drown my sorrow and to promote to the next rank which is now 2500 points away. So close yet so far...
When i reached church no one was there yet. I sat down and set up the chairs. Iddie came soon after and practiced on the keyboard not long after his sisters came too. I was rather tired and could'nt get myself to say good morning. So i walked to the toilet and drank some water and washed my face. I felt alot better , met Jess on the way back in and informed her bro could'nt make it down for mass. I went to tune up and went to the staircase. I heard the door below slam and thought it was Shawn but on the contrary, it was Rachel the AVA girl. She said good morning and i replied back the pleasantry. She asked me to play her something, i played her the bit of Lonesome road i knew. She got it but did'nt know what it was. I told her and she was Oh, no wonder it was so familiar! We carried on talking a little while more, she told me she fancied classical music and that she was a violinist and wanted to learn the flute. Little did i know her sister's were enrolling in the choir.
After mass i played abit of William tell which i practiced during the weekdays. Then went upstairs. We went down to the carpark and noticed the choir girls deciding where to go...there were two unfamiliar faces but i knew who they were. We went to BK for breakfast, myself, Daniel, Brennan and Joven. Iddie and Mel went too they were way ahead of us. We talked about some craps and went to get stuff from NTUC later on. Later Daniel went to the playground to get some sand for dummy smoke grenandes. We talked about Ak's and M16s and planes and BF 2, i wonder why?
Choir pract went as usual. Stayed on till 1pm and took a lift from Kor Bobby and Che Che in the van to Cal's place for his birthday party. We had some really good food there. I fell asleep, played with Shadow, watched bro play Super Mario 3 , played raw , ate abit more and went home. Had a chat with bro in the van on the way back. We sang abit of lonesome road. Sounded quite nice...I really wish we could sing that in choir.
For one thing to add, i wonder why i'm in BPSS, its allowing to learn academically but the problem is that it dosen't help me to learn anything else. I can't find any way to improve my musicality or spirtuality. Most of the influence i get there is not the best to find in spirituality or musicality. Too much rock desires and sick thoughts. I'm wishing i was in a mission school right about now.

Wednesday, May 17, 2006Sigh anyway today no results released, timetable was screwy even Miss Goh did'nt know how to get around the time table. Must be a screw up i suppose...Sigh i see you but i can only think and i just can't open my mouth...or type out anything to you...Sigh i'm counting the ways to where you are. I'll never reach you. The catholic High competition is coming up, i'm feeling the heat, Pesa in 2 weeks time. Concert in 1 month's time. Lots of intensive stuff in June, Working on the investiture stuff, camps...How crappy is that...gotta hate hate hate being busy. Why can't humans disregard problems right away. The thing about humans...we're intelligent..too smart for our own good. The Americans wasted a million bucks to invent a pen to write in space, the Russians just used a pencil. We're too smart for our own good and we forgot the good old pencil. How dumb eh?

So another day gone by, wasted away in the realm of pixels and sound waves. Morning played Source in a Japan server because Singapore servers for BF2 and Source were empty( DUH they're in school dumbass :P ), Played there got sick of getting owned by Jap cheaters...went to the kitchen heated up the remains of the pie and ate it for breakfast.
Went back in played more source on the jap server( i don't know why i bother )....got owned quit and received a phone call from Fhaiz telling that He and lukman were coming over to play DOTA (YAY).
I played some BF2 on the EASG server, the time was 1pm so most kiddies were home. Then the guys came by and we dotaed the entire afternoon away.
The guys left after we finished 3 matches. First one won, second one loss , third one won.
Then i played BF 2 on the EASG server URBAN again...and now here i am..
Seriously i'm starting to suck i need to train more. But that will have to wait...i have things to attend to...Speech compy next week, pesa the week after that...sigh...i hate school..speech compys and all other stressing things. I wish it was just music, games and peaceful livin'
But just a dream. Face the reality and you wake up screaming from your dream and you tumble further down the hole if you don't wake up....
Why am i talking like Max Payne now hmm......
Well cherios nighty....
Not yet....
No school yesterday due to oral...today...Oral for me....English and Chinese........
Night now for real

Sunday, May 14, 2006Just came back from Malacca.
A quick summary
------------------
Lots of Fun, Learnt more about the choir peeps, God.
Day 1
------
Left home around 6.45 after waking up at 5.30 and playing abit of BF2 before leaving
Was very hungry when we arrived. Met up with the guys who were there. Brennan, Alfred. Chatted abit before getting on the bus. We did a prayer and we were off. We played music and talked crap on the bus for quite a while before arriving at immigration. We checked off and went on and crossed the border arrived at the Customs in Malaysia in awhile and we were on our way. We tried to play Monopoly but could'nt (kept shaking due to bus movements). I ended up falling asleep and listening to music. At 11.30 we arrived at our "PITSTOP" which i have convieniently forgotten the name. Got some stuff there and went on. The ride came to a stop at 1.20 or so when we arrived at Citybay view hotel. We checked in and Alfred and I put our stuff down and went to lunch with the rest of the choir. We had all sorts of stuff to eat. Meat ( It was a friday but alot of us broke our fast anyway) We went up for a break and got a prank call from Alex( that little boy :X ). We went down to the function room later where Bro Mike ( yeah he's cool man, his god son too Geovenn ) gave us our first session. Real interesting. After this was abit of choir pract and dinner. At dinner we ate some funny stuff which i did not really enjoy but ate anyway. We went on to watch a movie a little further down at the Mall in Melaka. We watched Posideon. Rather interesting show, cept lots of ppl dead , ship sinking , explosions and yea...Nobody is going to play that one on a cruise ship movie on demand i'm sure. We walked back to the hotel. O yeah, on the way we walked by a old Portugese ship ( wood one likely to be just a frigrate ) , and an Old US PT boat that was preserved. Its gun was still onboard ( yeah the quad gun), the 50 cal guns were dismounted and placed next to a removed destroyer's gun. Upon reaching our rooms we went to bathe and Bren, Jovan , Alex , Alfred and myself played some monopoly. We did'nt finish , i won this one. I got the dark blue territories. We went to bed.
Day 2
-------
When I woke up it was 7.20 and i woke alfred up. He went to change for breakfast and i watched TV for a while and wore my shoes first. When we were done we went out and found that we had no newspaper and every other room had one. When we went down we saw John, Jess , bro Mike and Geovenn, and some of the other choir members. Hansel, Joseph , Alfred and myself sat at one table and ate not long after Jovan, Bren and Alex came down from the room and grabbed a table next to ours. Breakfast was quite alright. Next we went to the function room for prayer and the next session. After which we had free time. John got the musicians together to practice. Which took all the freetime away. Some people were'nt happy. I will not name names here. I seriously hate to say this the greater evil is actually talking behind John's back then telling him to let those who can manage go. Sorry to those people i am refering to. To someone else please understand that Instruments too have their rules to playing. Like singing there are difficult things and there are easy things. You can't demand something and expect it to be done easily. Rules are different. My apologies. If you got your own point of view don't flame me. Just my 50 cents. We went for lunch, had rice balls and chicken. We went back to get our files instruments and headed to the church for practice. Somehow the church there reminded me of a church i saw in Hong Kong. Maybe Portugese churches have similar interiors? I'm not sure...
Nice acoustics in the church i must say. We went back and played abit of monopoly this time i was abit off and did badly. We changed into our formal wear and went to the church for a novena and mass. Mass was great! It gave me the feeling of a sense of achievement. I've never seen such a proactive congregation. After mass we took some photographs and went for dinner. We had a glass blowing thing going on for a while. Then we went to Madam kings to do abit of shopping. I got myself a new watch to replace my lost one. Alfred got his mum a new skirt for mother's day. Joven got a new pair of shoes and slippers. We went back to the hotel and got some drinks on the way called 9 degrees i took the peach tea thing, Joven was wanting to see the alcohol content and finially went on with a sigh upon seeing the ALCHOL FREE wording lol. Went up played monopoly somemore. Alfred fell asleep, Bren went back to his room to rest. So it was myself, Joven and Alex. I lost this one. They left and i watched some James Bond and went to bathe then went to sleep...
Day 3
------
Woke up at 7am and looked at my new watch and fell back to sleep. Woke up at 7:40 and saw alfred half awake and shook him up. We went down for breakfast early. We saw Hansel and Joseph in the Gym. We had breakfast and bit by bit the choir peeps came down. Joseph had a little problem with an Egyptian tourist who was rather "attracted" to him. We went up for our next session. Finished off early , went to pack and then went to get some produce. Later we got on the bus only to realize that Shawn had accidentally misplaced one of the hotel towels. We were fined 5 Ringgit for it...how lame! We ate lunch at a beef noodle stall went on to do some shopping at a mall where Brennan got his new shoes. We got on the bus and arrived at our Pitstop at 3.50pm. We were watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on the bus which Joven accidentally brought. When we left we finished the show and went on to watch MI 3 but realized the quality sucked many of us Slept. We reached the checkpoint and got our passports stamped. We got on and started hiding the stuff. Arrived at Singapore Customs and went off smoothly. Soon we were on our way back. We seemed to have a problem with getting our phones to go back to Singtel. Mine was still stuck on Maxis lol, had to reset it in order to go back to Singtel. We arrived back at 6.40pm and went our ways from here. I took the bus with the Chews and Brennan but left before them on a 162. Then came home....

Sunday, May 07, 2006I think i messed up chemistry on friday...I was worried i'd screw up maths but instead i screw up chem how f'ed up is that? Sigh
My motivation runs on troubled waters, my happiness dulled. It aint the exam blues, its a lack of you....
It actually rhymes...wow! zzz.....
Last night took some time off and played some old games on the sega with bro. We played for about 1 and half hours from 10.30 to 12. Ah the old days of being a young child. Two children , a tv and a sega set. I derive that from the show, two guys, a girl and a pizza place.
Today went for mass, went alright but i did'nt practice so i screwed up here and there. Wanted to go to BK for breakfast but no one wanted to go except Brennan and myself so as not to be anti-social we went to meng's instead. We ate with Ben Byrne, Joseph and the Chews. The guys took their own seats so myself and Bren were left with the Chew girls at another table. Spent some time talking craps ad other stuff. I was crapping with Ben that very anti social but then he added that still within talking range..lol good point.
For the first time ever we ate at Meng's we made it back on time lol. So close but always late for practice. First time ever. I'm going to embark on that protein diet soon. Fully proteins. Practice went smooth joked with Elliot alot. My appreviation for Elliot is Elle with pronounciation with an EL. For Alfred, Al. With Ah-L.
We practiced the songs for the trip and the songs we were going to pract there for the next week. Then we did Ave Verum Corpus for a while. It sounded bad...VERY bad...
Had some instrumental practice, with Joven, Shawn and John. Joven was late because he woke up late lol...
I so look forward to the trip!
After pract i went for Lunch with Bren and Joven at BK, Joven just can't resist spending some money because he saw us eating lol...We crapped alot about the Da Vinci Code and how Dan Brown should be shot lol.
On walking out guess what we should see? A PAP contigent comes marching in straight thru the crowds at TP. It was obvious cause of the white clothes and the lightning bolt symbol. Upon further walking we saw....plain clothes policemen in a squad car. Obviously someone needs protecting huh?
Anyway i went back to sleep cause i really tired and woke up when Dad( YAY he's back ) came into the room and commented why we are all sleeping lol. He gave us each $50 bucks to spend in Malacca on the weekend nextweek. Now i'm in the midst of running thru maths and Chem. I feel alright for maths except for Mensuration and properties of circles. Will run thru that with bro later before he leaves for camp. Chem i'm going to do all the TYS questions so...bye...
