ST. ANDREW's JUNIOR COLLEGE

got posted to sajc successfully,was quite happy that i got into sajc.posting results is like o levels results.not everyone will be happy, theres bound to be some people who dont like the outcome.congrats to jibong and guorong for a successful appeal by the way.on the first day of school, i went late.i dropped my wallet on the way to school on the bus.so i took another bus to toa payoh to look for my wallet.thank god i found my wallet.imagine my IC,ez-link,money and many other important stuff.waited for leeyang at the interchange to go school together.reached at 8.30am.the school is rather big, you wont see any soccer pitches around, only rugby pitch.a great new place.went to the cultural centre for a briefing, then had mass dance, subject talk and many other stuff.had rather nice og members, pris tan the ogl.i only could match the face with a few names now.joseph,jamie,jessica,zhixiong,shane,elton,szewee and weisong.theres about 20 people in the og btw.also saw a few ahs people, chermain poon,benedict,chester,wong liting,sinyee.

i love my new school.

update

much had been happening these few days, in school and everywhere.went to chingay 2008 at esplanade area, it was sort of a last minute decision as my father has got the tickets and he told us only after he came home from work.so got changed and rushed out to beat the crowd.the formula one car sponsored by redbull was the show stealer.although it took quite a while for it to come over.before that, there was a short parade of harleys, vintage cars and supercars.all are loud steeds with revving engines.theres a white lamborghini cabriolet, meaning a drop top.and a porsche with dawn yang in it.after that it was quite boring, like the president waving and all sort of stuff. for safety reasons, the roads have to be cleared for the f1 car.the clearance vehicle it the exotic audi r8,which caused much hype last year.

maybe those who dint appreciate racing may think its boring,its noisy, its a waste of $$$.i beg to differ.you have to be there to experience it, yes its noisy, but its the oomph of the cars that bring about so much love from the people who built it by hand.

i got tickets to singapore gp 2008.$698 ea at marina grandstand

to date or to wait?

maybe zhengyi,yuhua and daryl remember this.this is from a church activity a few months back on the 28th july 2007.so 'to date or to wait?'

Update

its the eve of cny eve today,mums cooking a lot of stuff tonight to clear out some of the new year food as they have bought too much.chinese new year mood?i dont feel it like i felt 10 years ago.last time everyone was so excited about chinese new year,not forgetting talking about the food and all such stuff.now,the mood and atmoshere feels so much different.only now,i feel that i look foward to cny celebrations.probably with a prospering economy, many singaporeans are starting to forget what cny is all about, and not just about who makes more money during this period of time.festivals are starting to get too commercialized,we are losing our roots.or maybe it could be the fast pace of life that spoils it all.we get too busy with things,students with exams and adults with books,that we dont even realise that hey, its cny next week,do you know?or it could even be the rising costs of living,everyone eats well and live well everyday.its not just the chinese new year that we could get the good food.anyway,happy chinese new year.maybe will be back in anglican to celebrate

hope that guy backs out and i'll see my 1989 gibson les paul.
