2010-03-13T23:19:00.000-08:00

heyya. sorry been busy so no time to blog. but i've just been grounded... so i won't be doing this for another long while unless something cool comes up. 1 hour a day for com so what'd you expect? :\

L9'09 UNITE today was awesome!!! great job and the sn girls who put in all the effort, and not forgetting ben broughton and jarvis! thanks for everything!

GREAT JOB TO THE P&W TEAM!!! NIGEL, NATHAN, ALEX AND NATALIE!!! THE MUSIC WAS AWESOME!!!

went cycling yesterday and failed competition at funan... it was really fun and refreshing. cycled around 5 click maybe? left my bike at ryan's... so gotta go get it back soon. i keep leaving stuff with him :\

well, this march holiday is gonna be 4 chapters a week (thanks for the calculations matt!) chiong studying and doing ten year series... gotta catch up. thanks mum. so enjoy the break everyone! and it would be nice to call in and talk since i can't go out or use the com... thanks! btw, hope you guys had fun at shinEE!

A real friend would have stopped it.
A real friend would have ran after me.
A real friend wouldn't have figured that i would just come crawling back.
A real friend would have the decency to say sorry. Whether by phone or to my face.
A real friend wouldn't have just looked like he felt guilty and avoid eye contact.
My real friend would have called me by now.

The previous time this happened, at least one of you came. Now, it's gonna be harder this time.

Remember all those tests? You just failed yours. Thanks friend

acadia is gone

2010-01-27T22:08:00.000-08:00

today was the day-off for the good O-level results! finally... but wasn't as productive as i wanted it to be. running, check. singing, check. homework, eh... half check. study, quarter check. i'm fucked up i swear. SOMEONE PLEASE STUDY WITH ME. i need someone to motivate me by studying with me... anyone please?

now got chinese tuition on tuesday with joel... and camera + school + funny teachers+ crazy classmates = SUPER FUN PHOTOS!!! ahaha!! got to video lky do loads of ZULUS!!! haha. if you don't know what's that, i'll tell you next time.

i've got a feeling that i'm gonna be the only one at the meeting tomorrow, and that i'm gonna be the next one to get the flu virus that has been flying around my friends. PLEASE. i need some time to catch up with my homework... i'm so screwed tomorrow

see you when i see you. and thanks for the invite

studying starts now

2010-01-11T22:38:00.000-08:00

B4 for normal chinese might not make the cut. this is the final straw. someone told me not to worry 'cause it's just a stepping stone and that i tried my best, but like loads of other stuff in my life, i know i didn't try my hardest.

congrats to those happy with their results, condolences to those who aren't, and "WHATEVER" to those thru-train.

i'm keeping my macbook in my closet for now till i really need to use it. so don't expect to see me as often as usual. see you when i see you.

thanks natalie low :)

sec one orientation '10

2010-01-10T15:42:00.000-08:00

first week of school was terrible for me... already super tired on tuesday though i had 8 good hours of sleep... i guess continuously sleeping for 12 hours every day during the hols isn't that good if you can't adapt back to 8 hours fast...

'cause of the sec one camp, missed loads of lessons and have to catch up on homework... but DAMN SIAN TO DO LEH. sec one camp was kinda boring for me, 'cause i was stuck with rong kang and xian wei at one game for the entire 2 days i was there, so we ended up explaining, playing and debriefing about 27+ times... ARGH. the lucky guys could play handball with the classes... wednesday night came home at 10pm with jon leong, zhong yi and john after dinner at this damn nice prawn mee place close to school. watched youtube until 3++, then went to sleep... AND WOKE UP LATE. had to chiong breakfast and chiong to school. then on thursday came home at 9pm, bathe and slept straight away in the end didn't do any work for the whole 2 days... like wtf.

servers meeting on friday was great, but i hope to see more people turn up next time... so much admin work to do tonight...

yesterday finished maths, but i still got english, chinese and bio hmwk to finish. got chem test this week too... ryan stayed over yesterday to keep me company since my parents were gone for the past 3 days. home alone! haha... did loads of (failed) covers, but i posted one which is psycho girl by busted. enjoy!

gotta chiong for guitar class now...

new year '10

2010-01-04T19:35:00.000-08:00

HAPPY NEW YEAR. senior year is finally here. get ready for the ride.

31st was great. starbucks with ryan, then sabs came, then ryan left after lunch. went to bras basah to get her contacts, then bus-ed to justin's place for the nyd party. well, it was more like a gathering and dinner. fun playing twister, taking pictures of people playing twister, getting whacked in the nuts for taking pictures of people playing twister, then finding elephant boxers in justin's laundry basket :P haha.

food was good, company was good. around 11.30 bus-ed home with sabrina. well actually we started walking to the bus stop then, so my first ever new year's day not at home was on the bus ride home with sabs. haha. walk home was refreshing, and decided to do the message-everybody-you-can thing. hehe. had like loads of messages after that.

1st morning woke up late... then went to j8 to meet ryan, sabs and cabrini(who was also late...). bought some food, then bus-ed to ECP. suppose to go to sentosa, but after much consultation from kelly, ben byrne and andrea the previous night, we didn't want to spend the morning at the beach which was sand mixed with booze, vomit and a whole other lot of crap, so ECP it was.

taught sabrina to cycle(which was faster than expected! :X)! thank god no more 2 people bike... cycled from the shop to the pier, then stopped under some shade, laid down the ground sheet and just slacked there. me and ryan wanted to tan a bit, but cabrini sorta couldn't stand THE SIGHT, so we just talked, took LOADS of pictures and videos of each other throwing peanuts into our mouths. haha. lots of fun! cycled back, ate a little at BK, then bus-ed back to sabs house for a bit. i left for home first cause i had to serve mass, but met ryan at the bus stop! haha... found another website called "igotnotv.com" thanks cabrini and ryan! ZOMBIELAND WAS DAMN FUNNY!!

saturday sent my bro and sis off at the airport... sorry i left early guys! take care ya! mrt-ed from changi to city hall for jeremy's birthday lunch which was great! except for this big fat asshole who couldn't shut up and stop being gay... :X anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEREMY! shit... why are you sixteen already??? some of the guys made this concoction of soya sauce, milk, sugar, cherry, breaksticks and A LOT OF TOBASCO. damn sick... but wth. luckily no one drank it. walked around at raffles place, then bus-ed with nathan and claire towards church for mass. SWENSONS FOR DINNER! YAY :D! damn shiok sia. the soup is awesome... thanks mum and dad!

watched sherlock homles with ryan on sunday which was AWESOME. action + ingenuity is one of the best combinations for a movie.

school has started... and i already feel tired in school... AW MAN. I'M SCREWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWED!!!

heart heart heartbreak

2009-12-30T23:58:00.000-08:00

yesterday was awesome. didn't sleep on monday chiong-ing a birthday present... fingers damn pain from folding all the roses sia. did about 360? aimed at 400... but i guess i couldn't do all in time. on monday didn't eat lunch... then went to thomson plaza at 3pm+ to meet ryan. bought starbucks and talked a bit. bought the jar, then he came to my house to reteach me how to fold the roses. guitar-ed, gossiped with him and sis, then he left when i left for dinner.

dinner at grandparents' house, talked quite a bit with my relatives, then went home and continued. did from 10.30pm to about 2pm. damn fun just continuously listening to masterpiece theater over and over again about 5-6 times? each time about 45 min, so you do the maths. did about 100 that night. WOO!

woke up about 10.30. then just sit in front of tv do. lunch-ed fried rice my parents and sister brought back from the club. bro went out to brunch. then ryan came over for god knows what reason, but thanks for the support man. he left about 5, then i had to stop at 6.30, got ready for servers' meeting, then met marcus, nick chan, jon baldwin, jacob and jon chng at tp. bought some stuff, then walked to church.

meeting ended about 9.30. really productive. can't wait for the servers to rise up to glory once again. walked to tp and folded while waiting for ryan. left at 10.30 to the place. came about 30mins early, so practiced the song and finished everything before going up and doing it.

after everything, and much heart-thumping and doing the near-impossible, cabbed back to ryan's place, ate some maggi mee while watching american pie :P

woke up at 8.45 even though alarm was at 7.15... then chiong-ed to school for meeting, which ended 2 hours late... like WTF?!?! lan-ed at tampines, then bus-ed all the way to my grandma's house for JIAO ZI! WOOHOO!! THANKS POPO!!!

while on the bus, i gave myself my first diagnosis:
HEARTBROKEN

Causes:
1) Intense emotional experience
2) Loss of something loved

Symptoms:
1) Internal pain felt at the chest; may cause person to cringe down
2) Loss of ability to smile sincerely and/or causes fake smiles
3) Unexplained random shivering even at room temperature
4) Person may seclude himself from others for prolonged periods of time (depending on the type of person and the seriousness of the condition)

Cures:
1) Still searching for possible cures that do not affect the person's personality...

Happy birthday to you
From the guy who's lucky to have met you.
It's 2 days to the new year, and 5 days to the school year,
But I know it's enough for you.

This may be quite simple,
but it's written just for you.
And one last thing I have to tell you
Is that i really, truly do,
I love you

sing sing

2009-12-28T00:21:00.000-08:00

AW MAN. I'M HOOKED ON SING SING!

it's not wonder iiiiiiii~~~~'m not eating, iiiiiiii~~~'m not sleeping

then i can't remember the rest... thanks amelia!

today was great. picked up lunch and went to my paternal grandparents' house for their anniversary lunch with aunts, uncles and cousins. rather fun talking and catching up since we don't meet up as often as before. like we used to eat together on sunday nights, but now it's only for special occasions. damn sad.

around 2.30 left their place alone and took bus down to cathay. one hour bus ride + mrt ride from changi... wah sei. thank god i brought the book ryan lent me. at least something to make the time past faster.

planned to reach there before 4 and meet up with alvina, syamir, amelia, desiree and nick, then watch sherlock holmes. but ARGH!!! THEY BOUGHT ALVIN TICKETS INSTEAD!!! apparently alvina and desiree wanted to watch chipmunks, and only amelia was for sherlock... so ARGH! ben and jerry's and talked for an hour till the movie at 5... great to catch up with syamir. wish more SHR people came... it was more of a athenarts + one SHR meet up lar... damn sad.

the movie was... sorta irritating. a little funny. but not worth the 10 bucks... damn it. anyway, syamir went to lan after that, so the rest of us went to mrt to serangoon. nick left at serangoon mrt, then alvina, amelia, desiree and me went to kovan and took bus to serangoon garden circus. ate macs for dinner, then just hanged around there till 9+. planned to go to amelia's place, but she didn't bring her keys out... so wanted to go to desiree's place, but there were people there. then wanted to go to playground, but desiree was waiting for her bf... so we decided to wait for him to come and help us get some vodka from 7-11. but... he kinda ditched her, and after half an hour, we left her waiting and went to amelia's place(since her family was already home). supposed to have some vodka there, but apparently it ran out, so we just talked till alvina's parents gave me a lift to amk hub.

sorry alvina. your first drink will have to wait. i'll treat you your first time okay?

masterpiece theater

yesterday came home from the sings' house at 1+, but slept at 2 'cause my bro was hogging the toilet... woke up at 8.30 and left the house at 9 after super chiong packing and bathing, then went to pick up nathan and nigel, after that... OFF TO SENTOSA!!! awesome fun!

sun-taned(which was an epic fail...), played with sand(digging trenches like old times) and just talked cock for 2+ hours. lunch-ed and walked around vivo after that, then came home around 4+. mass then went to claudia's place for her party. food was awesome, especially the ribs. thanks uncle and aunty! and claudia! left early around 10...

i can't believe you actually use the word "hate" on your friends so lightly; don't you ever think about how others feel?

step one, step two, step three repeat

CHRISTMAS 2009

2009-12-25T23:56:00.000-08:00

greetings from the Sings' house! came over here with my family to makan, drink and catch up since my bro and sis are back for the hols... they'll be leaving next week and won't be coming back for 2 years(?)... damn. it's kinda sad. haix...

so christmas day aka. today is finally here!!! REJOICE! CHRIST IS BORN IN OUR HEARTS! but... this year, there's hardly any christmas spirit. it's really weird 'cause loads of people feel the same way, like this christmas is kinda dead compared to the last few years. go figure.

yesterday aka. christmas eve was a mess. woke up at 10+ and wrapped presents till 11+ then went out to meet ninnart and the rest. DAMN SHE HAS AN ACCENT. and it's really strong! we'll pray for you from singapore! stay safe! prata and talked with her till 12.30pm. esther has this really cool camera! it's like the instant print out camera, but it costs 100< bucks and the film is really ex too...

went home and went out again at 3.30pm for the childrens' mass. thank god we had practice before the mass, because it was the best mass i had ever seen the small people serve. like almost perfect! they should serve like that EVERY MASS!

went home then out again to grandparents' house for dinner bbq, which was really good! had like 6-10 chicken wings in a row + 3 sausages. thanks jiu jiu! really nice to talk with everyone after such a long time.

christmas midnight mass serving was ATROCIOUS. OMG I SWEAR IT WAS WORST THAN THE CHILDRENS' MASS! i'm never gonna let jonathan baldwin do the rostering for the mass again. like let the junior servers' do thurible??? and how did both thuribles do the simplest mistakes for one of the highest masses in the year?? haix... anyway, things are gonna change now that weerakoon is gone. only gave like 40% of the presents... didn't see a lot of people after mass. after 30mins of wishing and running around and talking, finally left with ryan, kelly, daniel lee, bryan lum, andrea, justin, hansel's sis to hongkong cafe for supper. mistakes with the order... then got damn screwed up. SORRY AUNTY! QUICKY LOL! loved ryan's reaction when he opened his present!

finished at 3. walked around with ryan till 3.30, then lan-ed till 4. decided to tell my mum we would be staying out till 7am mass, but she wanted me home... so walked with ryan to my house, then he cycled my bro's bike home. apparently he reached home at 6.30+ 0_0

bathed and slept at 5, woke up at 10.30. left for lunch at tony roma's @ orchard hotel. SHIOK AH! the ribs were awesome! but the chicken damn let down sia... haix. went home, then to uncle david and aunty maggie's place for visit, then to godparents' place. then they made me perform the confirmation song... WALAO. embarassing sia. then home again... then now i'm here! the wine is awesome! really sweet and light, so no way i'm getting drunk tonight!

sunday was great. swimming with ken toi, rae and sabs, then L9 party at aunty charmaine's place, which was great, then L8 "by the star" cantata, which was not so great, but still enjoyable. makan out with sabs, cabrini, claudia and daryl. they are really retarded... but still fun to be with.

the rest of the week was BO-RING! so wth. school, servers' training, carolling, blah blah blah. the only fun thing was going to ryan's house for the first time! awesome la. talked and whatever, and he taught me some exercise stuff, which i'm gonna fit into my schedule. also went to pick my siblings up on wednesday.

ARGH! ONE MORE WEEK TO SCHOOL BEGINS! let's make this week a good one...

carolling <3

2009-12-20T01:09:00.000-08:00

damn. that's the first time i've used the " <3" thing.

carolling today was awesome. did the programme 4 times: once at great world city, once at claudia tay's place and twice at vivo.

HOLY CRAP. claudia's place is FREAKING BIG!!! like 3 times a hdb 5 room flat la. there's even a small swimming pool, and the third floor is like a guest room. 3 tvs, 2 pianos and even a small house in the same compound for the grandma. wtf.
sorry alvina for the drooling thing... it wasn't to make fun of you...

sorry for the past two weeks of not posting anything. on the 8th, the monday after confirmation, flew to bandung, indonesia for holiday. shopping, sight-seeing, shopping, and more shopping. bought loads of stuff + xmas presents. went up to a volcano which was actually active, like you could see the sulfur smoking from the crater. quite cool, then went to a strawberry farm, but turned out to be off-season, so the berries were freaking small, so we didn't pick 'em. worst part was the 2 hour delay of the flight back home. and they couldn't even give us a reason.

went out with victoria and her friend, steph. brunched at bishan macs, then mrt-ed downtown to plaza sing to watch 2012. i must say it's a fabulous movie. the effects were outstanding and awesome. kinda sad too that so many died. freaking governments and rich people.

on sunday went down to vivo to watch the carolers carol. got convinced to sing with them after that... but it was nice to watch instead of sing once in a while. like you notice stuff people do when they perform, and you become more conscious of your movements when you perform.

monday had to do experiment till 4+, then met ryan, sabs and cabrini at bishan. went cycling with them, and had to share a double bike with sabrina... omg. like the most terrible biking experience in a long time. no offence, but i think i would stick to single bikes.

chiong homework for the next three days, but i still got bits here and there i need help with.
yesterday watched avatar with ryan and sabrina. AWESOME SHOW!!! IT IS A MUST-WATCH MOVIE!!! FORGET INTERNET MOVIES! THIS ONE MUST WATCH IN THE THEATERS!

meeting in church with servers was more productive than i thought... gotta get the next batch ready to take over the reins...

CONFIRMATION '09 :D

2009-12-06T23:54:00.000-08:00

YEAH!! WE'RE FINALLY CONFIRMED GUYS!! ALL TOGETHER!! WOO!!!
my name is Bong. Gerard David Emmanuel Bong Si Yong. YEAH!

so the awesome day started at 11.30am on sat 5th dec. left the house early to meet ryan in church. lunch-ed with him at 12 at meng's. played lan with ryan, zhong yi, keenan and ian. finally finished another chapter of L4D2, hard rain, which was really screwed up 'cause the com in used was freaking retarded. kept on quitting the game... luckily i changed my com.

finished around 1.45pm, then left back to church again for rehearsal. luckily set it for 2 hours cause nathan couldn't make the dinner, so me and ryan had to quickly practice a song, which was "how six songs collide" by norwegian recycling, but we took out one song, so it's kinda like "how FIVE songs collide". ahaha. ALEX IS AN AWESOME DRUMMER!!

4pm changed, took some pics, then went to the main church for sound check. after that, went to chapel to assemble. WOAH. the girls looked really great. well, most of them. but really, ALL the guys should have worn a tie. ALL THE GIRLS LOOKED AWESOME!!! LIKE ALL AWESOME!!! and SABRINA. OMG. SHE SHOULD LOOK LIKE THAT EVERYDAY. HAHA. she looked damn different from normal. took some pictures yea.

talked a lot during mass... hehe. the confirmation part was long la. sue me. anyway, i was damn happy after being confirmed. like YAY!! I'M CONFIRMED!! PICTURES LIKE MAD after mass. late for receiving my confi cert... kena scolded by amy :P sorry... performance was awesome! thanks everyone for supporting us!!! :D

CHECK OUT MY YOUTUBE VIDEOS!

starbucks with ryan, sabrina, jeanette, cabrini, michelle, drina and michaela? shit. can't remember liao. jeanette's friends came along too. talked and sang for a bit, then me and ryan walked to aris' place for the party. food was from nonya manis... so i got no comment on that. it was damn boring... like seriously. stoning, stoning, talking about horny and funny shows like friends and american pie, then more stoning. got a ride from ben byrne. me and ryan walked from his house to the hawker center. bought some food from 7-11 and sat there and talked about loads of stuff. more secrets to keep... it was already 2am, so he decided to stayover. recorded the song we sang during the dinner, talked a bit more, then lied on our beds talking. sorry i fell asleep while we were talking man.

woke up the next morning at 1.20pm... BWAHAHAHA!!! ryan got an sms from SOMEONE to surprise isabel at the finish line of the 10km standard chartered run... HAHAHA!!! told you to turn your phone to loudspeaker... lunch-ed at home, then hanged out with ryan for a bit before his family picked him up. that's 27 hours together with him if you count mass time and the dinner. HOLY CRAP

went to tp to get my new phone with dad! YAY! FINALLY! new nokia 5320. i know la. nokia. should have gotten a sony ericsson, but wth. i like the phone.

take it easy natalie. if he did that, he doesn't deserve anyone. it's not your fault, so don't blame yourself

LOOLA!

2009-12-05T10:41:00.000-08:00

loola camp in bintan was AWESOME!!!
three days of manual-flush toilets, constantly sandy/dirty feet has really made the 3 days incredible.

first day: after 3.5+ hours of travelling, we finally ferry-ed, bus-ed and walked our way to the camp "resort". no idea why they call it that, because it's FAR FAR FAR away from being one. lunch was good, and our new group name was "BEAVERS"!!! THANKS FOR BEING OUR MASCOT BRIAN! team-building games, put our stuff in the dorms, then went to obstacle course which was rather easy. except for the horizontal rope climb. failed halfway ehehe. ARCHERY WAS GREAT! like really cool experience, but i didn't hit any of the colours... of course i hit the board la. the last one was the rock wall, which was super easy and i finished it in no time. bathing was next, but the seniors didn't bathe. we played soccer with the locals!!! AND IT WAS MAD FUN!! they're like really good like brasillian kinda players with high passes and all. lost after that, but it was really fun. like there's this guy who laughs like a freaking hyena. LIKE SERIOUSLY A HYENA. LIKE HEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!! and whenever he misses, he would run all the way to a house and bang his head. HAHA. dinner was great! and we had this walk to the sea dorm with us having to guide our "blind" buddies. OH OH! MY BUDDY IS DAMN CUTE! irritating, BUT SERIOUSLY. HE'S ROUND LIKE A BALL AND REALLY FUNNY! reflection after that, then shoo-ed the p4s to sleep. played asshole tie-ti in to the night, walked out to the sea dorm to take some pics, then slept at 2.30am indonesia time.

next day had kayaking, which was really tiring cause my buddy didn't really do much, flying fox, which was scary on top but the ride was AWESOME into the water, more team games then lunch. after that, went for kampong walk which was filled with mosquitos but it was nice to see villagers and goats and REALLY CUTE TINY GOATS and the chickens and THE REALLY CUTE MINI CHICKS. heard from the guide that even J.I. goes there to camp out. like wtf. anyway, had boom-netting after that!!! if you don't know what that is, it's like you get on a boat with net's on both sides and you jump from the first or second floor. LIKE YEA!!! FUN LIKE CRAZY!!! we even got our teachers and javier who was damn scared to jump TO JUMP FROM THE SECOND FLOOR! WOO!!! threw away my old shoes there, then went back to bathe. we chiong-ed to bathe first this time, then got ready for the orphans to come. they were really cute but in their eyes you could see their sadness hidden behind their smile. haix... played soccer and dog-and-bone with them, and i even made a new friend!!! his name's KIKI and he's damn nice. like stuck with him throughout the barbecue dinner and campfire. the moon was red too!! like WOAH. dancing with them was really cool too!! like it was fun to take a video of mr lim dancing also :P sad to see them leave, but ya. free time till sleep from then, danced around the fireplace 'cause we could use the sound system, then played cards again. i slept earlier this time, around 2, cause i was damn shack.

next day damn slack. after breakfast had clean-up and final full activity to remember what happened during the 3 days, then last minute soccer with the local guys. took picture and my BAHASA IMPROVED!! anyway, pictures by the sea and seashell picking was fun... tao-pok brian cheng in the sea. like HAHA. i thought he was going to drown! went to town for lunch and bought a new shirt, then started raining like mad so the ride home was really choppy. slept throughout the ferry ride but happy to be back in s'pore!

yay! and that was my camp! dinner with claire, then went church and talked a bit. can't wait for confirmation later!!

I'M GETTING CONFIRMED!!!
I'LL BE GERARD DAVID EMMANUEL BONG SI YONG AFTER TODAY!!

i won't say anything at all

2009-11-30T12:45:00.000-08:00

if you're into rock, you'll be into them.
MARIANAS TRENCH RULES!!!

anyway, last week has been crazy as well. and this week is gonna be WAY WORST.

tomorrow is the start of servers' camp in church, which is really gonna tire me out. suppose to end on wed at noon, but i have to leave on tuesday night 'cause i have loola camp from wed - fri, which is really gonna kill me. adding to that, i have confirmation on saturday (YAY!), and i have band prac at 2pm in church, then sound check in the main church at 4, then confirmation from 4.30 - 7.30+. playing at the dinner, then going for after confi party at tiffany's(?) house.

ARGH!!! if you haven't gotten it by now (yes claire i'm helping you here) that's basically my entire week SUMMARISED. i'll try to blog about servers' camp on tues when i come home at 10pm and sleep to wake up at 6 (reporting time in school is 7am SHARP). please pray that the camps go well and i'll perform well at confi!!
GOD REALLY HELP ME NOW.

saturday was awesome. my first time sorta JAMMING. like the feeling was great. can't wait for the performance on saturday during the confi dinner. ALEX IS AN AWESOME DRUMMER. PLEASE BE MY SHIFU!!! dinner with dom, ian, jon, nat, claire and nathan was fun and don't forget that bintan is in india! :D thanks for the ride home claire's mum!

talking with nathan just now really tells me that i'm not the only one with big problems... helping him is definitely my first priority, but i hope i'll give him the right advice... if anyone has relationship problems and you need someone to talk to, i'm right here. waiting.

THE SJC CHOIR CONCERT WAS GREAT! GREAT SOLO ALVINA!!

the past is history

2009-11-22T18:46:00.000-08:00

tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift; that's why the call it "present"...

i think that if you like someone, why keep it inside? why worry about what might happen? shouldn't you just let it out and see what happens? better than wasting time thinking about it and wondering what the other person feels... i mean i know if it's your friend, you'll worry losing your friendship. you could just ask around, or ask for advice, but holding it in to yourself is stupid...

the last week was maddening. tuesday to friday morn was all focused on the grade 6 musical theatre exam, which was so much easier than i imagined. great job alvina and desiree! the research on the musicals helped A BIT, but i think too much lesson time was wasted on it. the second trip to esplanade to find the book again was wasted because the examiner didn't even check, so like wtf.

on friday right after exam went to lan with ken and ryan L4D2!!! awesome stuff. the new game is great but the last map is CRAZY. i swear. if you have completed it tell me!!! went for FUEL after dinner, which was kinda fun playing the games and all.

saturday morning had open house in school, then went to church for rciy. don't even know what in the world i was doing there. dinner and lan again after mass with gareth, franz, jacob, emilio and their buddies, then home.

can't wait for the weekdays... so much more fun to do...

L9 '09

2009-11-16T23:47:00.000-08:00

THE L9 CAMP WAS AWESOME. NO GAMES OR WHATEVER, BUT IT WAS AWESOME.
THE FRIENDS, THE FACILS, THE TALKS, THE CATECHIST. IT WAS ALMOST PERFECT.
THANKS GOD FOR EVERYTHING!!!

thanks to everyone who liked our confirmation song. special thanks to nathan who did miracles with the chords. hope we'll do everyone proud when we perform the song during mass.

thanks sabrina for talking with me during the camp. thanks to ryan who talked to me just now. thanks to everyone who wrote me warm fuzzies. sorry to does who i didn't write to. i love you all L9'09 CONFIRMANTS!!!

new lenses for my glasses and boxes of contacts today. feels a bit weird and my degree went up by 50 each side, so kinda bad. i should spend less time on my com and do some useful stuff.

i've changed, but you weren't there to see me change...
so how does that help you change your thinking of me?

Jesus, Lover of my soul,
Jesus, I will never let you go
You’ve taken me from the miry clay
You've set my feet upon the Rock, and now i know

I love you, I need you,
Though my world may fall, I’ll never let you go
My Saviour, my closest friend,
I will worship you until the very end

ARGH!!! this is a very rushed post 'cause i have to chiong out of the house in like 15 min and i haven't packed finished yet!!!

wired dream last night... but yet somehow refreshing. yesterday tried to find the books for my singing exam... but no cigar. esplanade and kino didn't have both books, so this kinda sucks now. i have less than a week to find both... don't worry sabs! not your fault you couldn't make it anyway...

there few days kinda slacked. no. rather slack like SHEEEET! but now really regret... should have done some work before i go today... lessons with iris' like two days in a row... tiring sia. but still needed. i got a lot to work on for my last 5 days before exam. 20th NOV IS THE DATE!

my siblings coming home for 'xmas!!! good thing i can spend it here, but i feel kinda bad 'cause my sis damn scared she'll be too tired for school 'cause she arrives back in canada the day before her school starts. like wtf. if i knew i wouldn't have mind going there...

take care everyone! SEE YOU ON MONDAY NIGHT!!!

take my hand

tiring day... or rather night + day. nathan stayed over yesterday, we finished THE song, 2hrs of recording until 4 in the morning. slept for 1.5 hours while nathan played on fb. woke up for morning mass. walked half way to the bus stop, but had to turn back cause nathan forgot his wallet... then bus-ed to church for mass.

came back and slept for another 1.5 hours. woken up by sabrina's call, then went to open the door to let her in. hanged out at my house for like 2 hours+ playing guitar, tried recording "can i have this dance" and just talked cock. walked her to the bus stop then she got on the 169 to tampines where she got chalet.

lunch-ed at my grandparents' place and played band hero with my cousins. the drums are REAAALLY hard to play! the songs are way better than rock band 'cause they're more modern. went home around 4 and studied for an hour+ then went to sleep until dinner...

thanks rae and kenneth for yesterday evening. for the ice cream, the poker, the tie-ti, and the talks.

last cat class was on saturday... can't believe gonna have no more cat classes... like gonna miss it much. can't wait for the camp this friday, but i got lots to do before then. like chinese Os tomorrow, paperwork for servers, perfect THE SONG and possibly try to learn "river flows in you"...

THANKS SARAH FOR THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR!!! I'LL PAY YOU BACK WHEN I SEE YOU!!!

WOOHOO!!! firstly...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYBODY!!!although it's been over for almost an hour...
awesome day it's been... woke up at ~~8.30am~~ 11am, after cat class went lan-ing with ryan and kenneth. CS WAS DAMN FUN PLAYING WITH BOTS! like it was 3 of us vs. 5 hard bots. super nice.
started raining like diarrhea went we left, so we had to chiong from the lan shop area to the thomson plaza bus stop to thomson plaza. AND IT WAS SUPER FUN/FUNNY!!! apparantly kenneth didn't hear us say that we were gonna start running, so when me and ryan ran, he was like "OMG YOU BITCHES SUCK!!!" yea. he was being pussy anyway 'cause he wanted to wait for the rain to stop. we were really wet when we reached tp.

OH. and we didn't stop there. we had to run from there to claudia's house. wasn't too far away, but there was a giant puddle - like 2 cm high - that soaked our shoes like mad. at least we got to dry up a bit at the house. awesome make-up by claudia and ADD-ON BY MOIRA!!! haha. claudia looked like the joker and moira was supposedly an abused child. so while the girls and ken went for marcus' birthday/halloween party, walked over to the bus stop. freaking smokers.

after a while, we got damn sian of waiting and decided to take a cab, but they were all turning into the tp cab stand. so walked again to tp, avoiding the puddle this time. bought kfc for dinner, hitched a ride from ryan's mom (A BMW!!!) and ate till nathan came.

HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY KOR!!!!!! LOVE YOU!!!

so... today was kinda wasted. woke up at 12, just slacked and stoned till 3.30+ then went for guitar. i couldn't even bother to eat lunch... too lazy to go buy 'cause my parents were both out... so i just munched on chips.

got a lot to do before my singing exam on 20th nov... got some acting lesson with some guy iris hooked me up with. in case you're wondering, the singing exam is called 'MUSICAL THEATRE', so i have to a little acting/speech before the song starts... AND get costumes... so i'm singing a song sung by gaston in the musical "beauty and the beast". just imagine me in tights, a REAAALLY low cut shirt and boots. that's the worst part.

LALALALALALALA. when are the SYOG people gonna call???????

SYOG

2009-10-23T23:19:00.000-07:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIE!!! LOVE YOU!!!

woke up super early to cook pineapple fried rice for today's marist youth day. i think our class was the first to sell out everything. we should have cooked more to earn more. DJ-ing with timothy and shaun ho, so i was damn shocked to see everything gone at the half hour mark.

cabbed home with the freaking big ice box, then bus-ed to iris' place for last minute practice for the SYOG entertainers auditions. changed the song twice... then decided to use home by michael buble in the end. met up with desiree, then mrt-ed + bus-ed to cineleisure. was kinda okay crowd, but at first the crowd sucked 'cause it was most working people and old people with nothing better to do. thank god our performances was later in the evening so had more teenager support.

so the people i know who performed were: desiree, alvina and chanel. i think i did okay, desiree sang one step at a time and screwed up a bit. like she was flat for the first part and she sounded damn scared, so probably that was the case. alvina sang awesome with "because of you" by kelly clarkson. chanel forgot the lyrics, but at least she didn't run off stage or something. still remember myself doing that when i forgot my mc part and ran off stage crying. damn

why does everyone get it right the first time?
why am I the only one who screws up the first time and doesn't get that second chance everyone talks about?
why am i so fucked up?

play some for me

2009-10-21T23:28:00.000-07:00

gotta type out all the songs i have in my library... gonna do DJ for this friday's marist youth day with timothy. wanna finish tonight. thank goodness for 2h power nap that made me miss dinner...

pass couple days in school were freaking boring... like half the time sleeping in class. and AI meeting was a waste of time. haix. i just want the hols to come soon. then i can feel totally relaxed. sadly, the studying also begins then...

got some classmates coming over tomorrow to cook for friday. selling pineapple fried rice, tom yum soup, spring rolls, lemongrass drink and curry chicken. thai food anyone?
