Special Thanks, Shokran
Well thank you too Zi Yun for this fine work of art...
I'm glad to have helped you to print your job application form.
I hope you've gotten the job.
As mentioned in your mail,
In this picture, the left is a stone and the right is lumber. Your anscestor (the first Toh) was the chief engineer (civil engineering) of our great king around 3000 B.C. So he chose the material as the totem of your surname.
P.S. Your surname in Chinese is "杜". The left "木" has the meaning of wood or lumber. The right side "土" is refering to soil and also can be linked to stone.
I shall post this here so that one day, when i read through the annals of this blog, I'll see and remember this.

Thursday, November 26, 2009Mmm..hmmm
Ok, today’s proteomics practical was really long..and boring add that. For once i was prepared though..
Did all my flowcharts and questions on my own before hand.
Spent some talk to talk to Hafiz, man your maties are screwing your life up for you man...what are they thinking making a deal involving a hundred dollars per person without telling you...
Bless his soul that guy, he’s a great listening ear for anything that can crop up. He probably doesn’t deserve the life he has to go through but like he always says...my friends are what counts.
Right one there mate.
After proteo prac had to go for a meeting with Dr Tan to discuss the project with him.
He said we should cut back on the transformation and just focus on the report now...oh well thats just two months of pointless work done then...
And the reason why we did this extension anyway?
Because we both thought the other wanted to....score one for miscommunication!
Anyway after the meeting went down to meet Aaron for dinner first.
Had baked rice at long house..mm that stuff is good...
Then we went to downtime...where we started our THREE AND A HALF HOUR L4D2 face off.
It was Aaron, Daniel Lim, myself against, Jon Lau, Nigel and Nigel’s friend Alex.
The battle was intense and the game was good!
The mindless murder of zombie hordes was just thrilling and i guess i came out hoarse from it.
Tomorrow is Thursday...IS day...god i hate IS...
Then to waiting for band prac and Joven to pass me the disks for the percussion concert.
Then to the routine...warm up and stay till 7 to 7.30pm...leave and go for choir prac...whilst getting some much needed Z’s on the bus.
There’s alot for me to prepare for...Rondeau, carolling and common tests.
I seriously wonder what’s going on with me...I can’t seem to study...need to force myself to it...the time from FYP i guess has totally degraded my will to study...
Anyway now to print the UTM notes for tomorrow and get some Z’s....

Tuesday, November 24, 2009The Christmas Mood
I'm definitely in the mood...L4D2 ROCKS.
Recently I've become kinda addicted to Christmas and MJ songs.
I'm starting with the man in the mirror~~
Jingle Bell, Jingle bell rock~~
On the offside, band practice is pretty boring...we're doing everything at snail's pace and its really sucky...people don't practice..sigh.
Project work stinks...the transformation failed..and we don't know why...shit...
Anyway, the mood is good now...feeling alright..pretty high and crazy at the moment, i'm gonna try versus mode online later.
Wootz

Saturday, November 14, 2009The End Of The World
Gotta love those end of the world movies…
So exciting all the drama and action. The desperate and stupid things people do. The selfless stuff that people do for others.
How would you feel about the end of the world..
My answer?
Let it come..if its time its time.
Be it whether it does happen in 2012 or some other time. Leave it in the hands of god.
Who are we to judge the end of the world…
…
Anyway today was a long day…8am up..9am I was at accent getting my instrument back $96 repairs..ouchie to my bank account. Its worth it anyway.
Sectionals after that till 11.45am. Lucas's wedding from 12.40 to 4.30pm.
Went home for a while and went out again for 2012 with Belinda, Jian Sheng and Gary.
It's a good show…I like it..
Went home early so I can get enough Zzz's for Sunday.
Long day…will be up at 5.30am, church + choir till 1 something. Meeting Candel and Su Qi to head down to Dempsey for the exhibition and some makan. Then chill out, maybe catch another movie in the area…I better do my locality research.
Gosh I'm really tired…

Monday, November 09, 2009Great - Good - Bad - Shitty
Friday was the best day of my entire life so far...never been happier in my entire life. My good friends and some select few probably know why.
Dad’s concert was awesome! Stray dogs FTW and Pest Infested isn’t too bad themselves
Headed back to school to do the wiring...Chris and myself spent almost a ridiculous amount of time figuring how the ****ing mixer works..at finally got it to work at about 1am on Saturday morning...
We decided to continue the next day also cuz the perc guys had to log out already.
Chris and I were so tired the moment we got to the room, we just literally dropped our stuff and got our pillows and stuff and slept in the Living Room...
Shermaine made quite alot of noise when she tried to move in and sleep in one of our rooms....woke us up a few times...
O well..
Anyway Saturday came and went by really quickly...the amount of work to be done was a killer. We did it anyway, i was just really annoyed at the fact that I think i felt more worried than the performers because they were seriously behind schedule and i still had to wire the damn hall up and sound check and BATHE. I didn’t bathe since Friday morning!
That done headed home and had a good nights sleep...
Sunday...shit...instrument giving problems, i need to send it to accent later. Going down with Henry later.
Had quite some fun at night. Jo stayed over and well we talked things through about stuff...
Damn this Monday is the worse day ever......

So pretty…..sigh…
Maybe. Maybe not…
