Back in that long lost (to me at least) country.

School's out. actually that was weeks ago but details are irrelevant at this point. the exams were... over and that is what matters most. whether pandora's box is opened when the results come out remains to be seen, although personally i would be quite content if it did not.

Also got P plate for driving shortly after that, or maybe before, my memory is a bit fuzzy. So now can drive in peace without worrying about filling up a logbook everytime i exit the car.

The other day, went to Scarborough beach for the first time. two years in australia and ironically that was the first time, i think, that i have been to the beach. Freo does not count since you cant swim there. a lot of us went, so that was fun. can't remember too much aside from our efforts to bury yk shoulder deep in the sand. yes we actually came close on numerous occasions to reaching his neck but his persistent movements pretty much meant a lot of rebuilding was in order. got some pics to remember so that is enough i suppose.

Shopping was also in order, although i am not a shopping demon like some person i know, so not much was spent, both in terms of time and money.

Cousin's family came and stayed for holidays which was quite fun. especially the baby. honestly going to be bored at home now without her running around and screaming. with my cousin's arrival in aus, my dignity was lost. the place was pot black. the time, as if i remember. the event: being beaten in a game of pool against an opponent who only used one hand to play. yes it is true, sad but true. my only option now is to learn some techniques from him and use them against him to win. sound's like a good idea.

Yesterday's flight back to sg from aus was so-so. the food was strangely edible considering i came close to throwing up just from the smell of the food on previous flights. one thing that annoyed me was that i was watching a good movie, and during the climax, the plane decided to start descending upon changi airport and so turned off the tv screen. one would think that the pilot would have the courtesy to make a few circles in the air until the movie ended, but no.. had to land.

Today has been spent mostly at home which was a bit of a bore, although visiting endah parade, it was quite nice to see some of the changes and the things that remained the same. felt kind of nostalgic. i saw a lot of the stuff remained unchanged. even the girl at the phone shop was the same one after so long. of course the important thing was that the game shop was still there. xD

The Fallen Brother

Back again after the last post. Felt like yesterday, the last time I blogged. What to talk about? Nothing in particular. Honestly no inspiration whatsoever.

Status update comes first I suppose, until I come up with something better. 99% graduated as of today. Not an official statistic, more of an estimate by yours truly, which I suppose can be equivalent to an official statistic. Friday was the last day of school ever, which was good fun. It involved cameras and balloons, so I suppose it was bound to be fun. By the end of the day, congratulations were abound among us male students while tears overflowing from the ladies. Although I could have sworn a certain Singaporean guy I know had tears in his eyes. Just dust I suppose. Got to act macho after all.

Then the following day, Graduation Ceremony and Ball. A day to remember I suppose. Never been to a black tie event before, which was kind of special, although the formalities that had to be observed at the early stages of the proceedings were quite tedious. The Ball was good, although the quality of food was found to be wanting. That did not stop a certain someone though, as I am sure my malaysia-kenized (not original, but lack of material is an inevitability at this point) brother is aware of. The disappointment of not watching MU produce out of this world football (don't deny the truth) was usurped by the fun time at the Ball. A lot of dancing (jumping, prancing, whatever you want to call it) was a prevalent theme. Ended up leaving after midnight and had a good time I suppose.

Current status: trying to motivate myself to study for the impending exams. I find it strange how even though it is my final school exam ever, I am incapable of motivating myself to study. I have absolutely no idea how i managed to focus for one month during the PMR exams. My current hypothesis is that someone spiked my daily morning milo, but as it happened a while ago, I can't ascertain the truth of this.

Another thing that has been bugging me is why I have yet to block a certain brother on msn. Maybe I fear the fallout that might occur considering his gym routines that cause him to ache for 2 days straight after a session. I honestly do not know.

My verdict for this weekend's football clash between MU and Arse, yes there is always football involved, MU for the win (kind of obvious I would go with this). It promises to be an entertaining match, so long as there is no more food fights between the teams. The prospect of Hargreaves breaking Fab's legs is very enticing.

No photos this time around due to two simple reasons, (a) too lazy to upload, and (b) I choose not to.

PS,
Gel, wax, mud, clay, come on Gatsby, I am expecting glue soon. Unless UHU company beats them to it.

Inspiration failed to arrive after all.

Insomnia

Ah wth. now is 2 am n i still cant sleep. I think got insomnia edi. Lately cant sleep at all during the night. Not like i take caffeine or anything. N always feel damn tired during the day. Ah maybe i am a night person. XD err in 8 hours time i will be officially screwed. Got an assessment to do n i didnt study a damn thing so i think just go there n bomb. Damn this is what u get when u take up uni subject when still in college. Have to go to the uni in the morning when it is sooo much better to just sleep in the comforts of my room, and have to take a test about something i nvr study at all. It's like a self-study thing n i lack the motivation so i dont care. The worst part is now is still hols. =_= i gotta go do a test during hols. Damn sad.

Now football season gonna end in a month or so, so must fully enjoy watching it, although very little coverage here. If MU enters uefa champions league final, i may even consider waking up 2am on an exam day to watch it. Err hols really boring. Friends all go back to their own countries n enjoy. I stuck playing ps2 n procrastinating on holiday hw. XD Honestly, i think i took up too much work for my own good this year, but i think i will just stick with it cause i am just too damn stubborn.

My driving lessons taking a very long time. Damn sad cause i got no manual car to practice in. So can only rely on lessons. Some more, when i go for the lesson, i forget what i did the last time n have to take awhile to get used to it again. Although i still think driving is a bit of a pain. I'd rather take bus since the service is quite good here.

That's it i guess. Now i need to try to get a few hours of sleep if i want to stay awake during the test later.

Finally Managed To Enter

I know this post came so fast after my last one and the super speedy new post is annoying but I will just post anyway. There are several reasons behind my super speedy new post.

REASON 1:
I was too lazy.

REASON 2:
I lost my password only to find several minutes ago that Firefox actually keeps a record of the passwords and that I could have gotten the password a long time ago.

REASON 3:
Can't think of any. This is just to waste some space.

Now school is already back in progress. Already so fast find myself missing the holidays. This year there are two disappointments so far.

DISAPPOINTMENT 1:
My test marks so far have been really disappointing and shocking. Must really pull out all the stops if I want to get a high score for uni qualifications. Thinking of taking up aerospace engineering. I have no idea what the job entails but I found it interesting for two reasons. NUMBER ONE is that the pay is high. That is for me a good enough reason for it. NUMBER TWO is that there is a possibility of working in Singapore if I can do well in it. More fun than being here.

DISAPPOINTMENT 2:
I will only go back in December holidays. Cousins coming in mid-year so can't go back at that time.

SECRET DISAPPOINTMENT 3:
This post contains a high amount of times of me using the word DISAPPOINTMENT and every single time I have managed to misspell each at least once.

By the way, I am writing like this because it seems more interesting and I got the idea from a book I just finished reading.

In other news, I am currently learning how to drive manual cars. Two lessons so far and thankfully the engine hasn't died on me (special reference to wp for this XD). Although I must say my parking is really very bad. Can miss the parking lot by some way off. XD

As for homework, piling up like crazy and driving me nuts. It now occupies at least two thirds of my table and its presence annoys me.

Weekends have been either study, Final Fantasy 12, Resistance: Fall of Man or football. Two really awesome playstation games by the way. Especially the graphics for Resistance is quite... mouthwatering, I guess. Football I think is improving bit by bit. I have given up hopes of being like John Stockton unlike what tj predicted. XD

And last of all, because I can't think of anything else and because I want check if the weekly manga is out or not, good idea for creating the smkbbsp forum. Quite interesting place and also special thanks to wp for creating its most successful, fun and ridiculous thread. XD
