im back

got back from the land of smiles on monday night, at around 11pm.overall, i find this trip rather satisfactory.

some things i found interesting about thailand.

1.the thais are friendly, always there to help you

2.tuk tuks are expensive for tourists, especially the and mohs

3.chinese food in thailand has only 3 dishes.-sharks' fin soup, abalone in red gravy, birds' nest

4.air pollution is terrible in bangkok

5.girls in thailand can be rather pretty, too bad they cant speak proper english

6.the baht is really weak, compared to sgd

7.poor planning in the city area

8.raffles-city-like shopping malls are all over the city centre, the size of vivo city each

9.the thai police love tight-fitting uniforms

that should summarise my short stay in bangkok.had tom yam kung 3 times, roasted pork quite a few times, roasted pig intestine, some roasted organ of the chicken and fried crickets.and last but not least, i got a new electric guitar from bangkok.a washburn N1, Nuno Buttencourt Signature Model.but im gonna change the electronics soon, to emgs and add a tone pot to it.it should be great after those mods.will post some pics soon

Destination Thailand

leaving for bangkok, thailand tomorrow morning.short trip.will be back on monday.hope i see some good gear and taste some good food there. goodbye for the time being, june's gonna be a hectic 'holiday' month.camp, and such.

everyone, lets work towards the A's together

What you can find in a gibson

there are many things you can find with a Gibson Les Paul in your hands.

joy
happiness
satisfaction
quality
passion
&
love

in 6 months, i will feel this way.

life has been tough and busy recently, tests and all those things that keep me too occupied with.as i was taking my shower after a hot day in school, this short story came to my mind.it was one that i heard or read during my days in anglican high.its something like this:

A man was walking on the beach with God,
and scenes of his life flashed across the sky.
When the man looked back,
there were 2 sets of footprints in the sand.
But sometimes,
When times were tough,
He only saw one set.
Then he asked God,
"why were you not with me when i was feeling down or life wasnt easy."

God replied "Those are the times when i carried you through"

i will work through the common tests, God will do his best if i do my best.

bless and be blessed.

bullshit

i sort of wasted 5 dollars yesterday night for the sajc guitar concert.its not totally bad, but quite bad.there was this girl, jc2 i think, whose guitar was out of tune, the low E string, and i dont think she realised.its too unaturally low and flat.lousy.i hate the fucked up conductor too, some purple gay stand there think he very pro, and so arrogant he despised the cultural centre's speakers.what a gay bastard, hope he gets into some trouble for being so arrogant.i think annie tang is bad enough, but he is in another 'higher' league than annie.

update

ok i dont know where to start from since its some time from the last time i blogged.

School is tough, im starting to see my marks dangle around the borderline pass areas.i dont feel good, its time to start mugging for common tests.i want to do well.

my pwoject work group is out.im with ricky, annabel, and darssni.i think its quite a good combination, its quite balanced.my PI is chosen since its unique and tan jq says theres still room for expansion for the GPP.

im the newly appointed CIP rep for S02, sounds cool and rather slack.how busy can CIP be, and furthermore its a class effort,there should be some one out there to help me out.

its been a really busy week:Monday:went for rugby match at ccab, SAJC against ACJC.its a close fight but we still won 20-11.saints, up and on!next monday, at padang, against ACS(I).dont know why theres so many acss around, dont like it.
Tuesday:stayed in school for PW lecture and followed by a math lecture test which i felt so disappointed in myself, im losing self confidence.
Wed.went for chem lecture test, think im gonna fail it, though i did my tutorials and the questions are somewhat similar.then went to ecp for a rollerblading session with sports and fitness club.fell many times and got a deep enough cut on my palm at the base of the mid-finger.saw clarice at the vjc bus stop on the way home.sorry clarice, i think you just got rounder.
Thurs:Ben liang got pissed with the class he dismissed us at one plus.qiang bo is the first to flee, he is the first in everything and he's happy about it.went for physio at CGH at 4, Ting Jun is not my physiotherapist anymore, shes really good.now its a guy, hope he does a good job.got an extended MC with excuse for napfa test, this should shut ben soh's mouth for quite some time.
Friday:chem spa, will be going to guitar concert not because its good, im gonna support Ricky Chong.it should end at around 9.i heard the sales of tix was real bad, life concert was full house.

I NEED SOMEONE TO STUDY WITH.or maybe not.....

im EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS

finally, after 3 drafts, out comes my EE PI for final submission.thats it for my pi for now, but worries lie ahead.chem lect test, math test, physics spa.and i really think that i have a fetish for les pauls.

i guess it wont be that very long till the arrival of my gibson, how i wish it is here right now.have been playing lotsa random stuff, from fade to black to catch your wave.and sajc is gonna have the 2nd cafe, which will be starbucks like.hope it will be much nicer than that pop cafe, and make our $$ more worth it.have been quite busy lately, will update soon.again.and student camp this year, hope i can commit to it.

update

didnt post for a real long time, i really got no time to do so.school's been very very busy recently, projectwork, gp presentation, math lecture test, chem lecture test, physics class test, tutorials.add on to that i've got physio an alt thurs, doc's appt, and some other specialist clinic appt.how i wish money could buy time,really.gonna give a real long update now.

start with talking abt school.

well, i chose journeys over modernisation for the project task, about lky's journey to learn mandarin.i was surprised to find out that he actually started learning mandarin at 32years old.amazing right?i really admire him, a great man.without him, would i even be here?ME,ME of my preliminary idea draft.hope will upgrade to ee,ee.general paper presentation was over today, the group wasnt really well-prepared for this.i hate being not prepared enough.samuel,sheldon,chanpheurum and ricky and i was already considered quite good enough,for the amount of info we gave.till the "60-40"guy jason told me i was like talking to myself.maybe, but i dont know.the way i look at jason is like a sin-curve, sometimes i find him ok.but most of the time not.the girls and her were late for econs class, and ben liang asked them to go for a break instead of lesson.they missed all the important stuff anout essay writing and answering skills req for test and exam.good luck to them.actually, i like my class now quite a lot.better than tpjc, much bettter,at least i found some people who have similar interest as i have.passion for guitar and old school rock music.and theres lots of jokers in o8s02 too, people like kishen and dixon.sajc is real fun i think, packed with activities and lots of other stuff that we can keep ourselves busy with.and jin jin khan has this book which i think will screw up anyone's life after reading. it tells you how to make you life more interesting.got one is to call the police, and say you are abducted by aliens.or maybe call them and say "i want to confess a crime i committed..."and dont say anything.or maybe prank call someone and say"im your real father".will also be running for house council as it will give me a nicer looking SGC.

now, talk about my physio.

i was diagnosed with bilateral patella femoral pain syndrome or PFPS, and will be out on 6 months mc.that means no pe for the time being.the therapist in charge of me is ting jun, a rather nice doctor who is patient at explaining,and jokes quite a lot.shes the type of person that is like my elder sis, it would never come across your mind if you see her and think she is a doctor.start with some easy exercises for strengthening and such and will move on to other stuff.

was at the johnnie walker promotion event for a campaign promotion for drink driving.of course that was not why i was there for.it was for mr mika hakkinen of course, the 2 time formula one world champion.he is here as a spokesperson, and demonstrate the mclaren mercedes formula one car.was at the chingay one to see the RBR car not long ago, and now mclaren.whats next?ferrari with shell sponsor.hope so.and i know now that amg cars are loud beasts.the CL55amg hakkinen drove is one revving loud powerful monster.the F1 car wasnt that quick that day, but still loud and impressive.was also looking through my collection of ferrari car models,i was impressed and snapped some pics of them.i have 17 of them now,plus one larger mika hakkinen f1 car
