Okay since it's been long since I last posted I shall just talk a bit about Singapore Soccer. Today I'm gonna talk about Singapore's soccer support level and explain why it has been disappointing. But whatever I said is just a generalisation, not that everyone is like that. I shall just explain it in a Q&A format and elaborate on everything. and yes whatever I'm gonna say is just an opinion, it may be true or false, that's up to you to decide...
Q: What is the majority race of the population in Singapore?
A: Chinese.
Q: Which of the 4 races in Singapore is the most 'kiasu'?
A: Chinese.
Q: Which of the 4 races in Singapore believes in this phrase 'No Money No Talk'?
A: Chinese.
With that I've already explained why Singapore has such poor support. Now for the elaboration.
Elaboration: It is unfortunate to see that the majority race in Singapore are disgracing the nation with their 'kiasuism'. I as a Chinese can safely say that. The Chinese are too fond of money. As Singapore Pools allow legal betting for soccer. These Chinese people do bet on the 4 big teams: Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal Liverpool. When these teams win, they earn money. Once they earn the money, they will support these clubs cuz these clubs help them 'earn money'. However, by supporting these teams, they do not realise they are throwing away an important moral value: Loyalty. It's also these bunch of Chinese people who do not even know that loyalty is priceless, it's worth more than the dirty money they earn. It's also affecting Singapore soccer in a way that these kiasu people make up the majority of the population. If let's say the Malays are the majority population, it would not have been this bad.
So that's the explaination, now for the ranting. It was inevident that money totally overwhelmed them if you have been to the National Stadium on the 28th of July. They had the nerve to support the Brazilians against Singapore. I mean, what's the big idea of that? Listen, nobody stopped you guys from supporting Brazil or whoever. BUT AT LEAST, WHEN THEY ARE UP AGAINST YOUR OWN COUNTRY, YOUR PLACE OF EDUCATION, WORK, RESIDENCE, can you guys at least show a bit of National Pride?
Disappointing, really disappointing. The worst thing that ever happened was that you guys JEERED Singapore Players and JEERED their fans which include me as well. If supporting them AGAINST SINGAPORE is already bad enough, what's worse than jeering Singapore players and fans?
I don't understand why it's always the Malays taking the initiative and being appreciative of our country. I simply admire these patriotic people. Sometimes I even feel ashamed being a Chinese. Yes Chinese people, if you know I'm a Chinese and yet I'm saying this. You should know I'm dead serious about this issue.
You might now be thinking. Why must I support Singapore? They always lose one, don't support la! Lousy team! Throw away my face only.
Well, firstly, Singapore isn't a lousy team, it's lousy cuz you demanding people compare them with the high-classed Europeans which don't share the same culture with us, it's like comparing a worm's size to an elephant's.
Secondly if you really think that defeats throw away your face you might as well not support soccer at all. In soccer you don't win all the time, there would be times you 'throw away your face'. Soccer tests endurance, if you Chinese people are so afraid to throw away your faces then don't come and support soccer altogether. I am a Singapore fan, I experienced many defeats but yet I'm still proud of who I support and my face is still facing upwards with a great deal of pride. Chinese people, wake up, it's all in your mind.
Thirdly, if you think Singapore don't deserve your support cuz they always lose, in future, you can tell your child not to study cuz he's always not first in class. Then you all might now also think. Singapore sure won't go World Cup one la! Go also in the end sure lose 10-0 to the teams in the first round then go home one! Well, if that's the case, when you guys are in your working life, don't ever fight for promotion cuz once you get promoted, you are going to fall behind to the rest of the people with the same rank/hierachy as you.
Then you might also say. Support Singapore for what? I'm not proud of them! All foreigners nia! Asking me to support United Nations ah?
Well, firstly, have you ever even heard a word called 'cosmopolitan' or are you guys too dense to know that Singapore welcomes anyone from across the world to do business and earn a bright future here?
Secondly, don't forget, we Singaporeans have ancestors from elsewhere who migrated here for a better future. We are downright 'not Singaporeans' in the first place. So don't you all dare use foreign talent against this issue cuz your ancestors were once foreigners and it shows you also don't take pride in their commitments. If you guys wanna support 'real Singaporeans' you all can head to the zoo and support the Lions in the enclosure.
Finally, you all might also say. I only like the Malaysian Cup days when you can feel the atmosphere, excitements and achievements.
Well, Chinese, firstly all these while you have been demanding. But I don't understand why do you guys still want our NATIONAL TEAM to play against STATE TEAMS in Malaysia? You're trying to tell me you're that cheapskate and that the only way you want Singapore to win is to win against STATE TEAMS?! WHAT'S IN YOUR BLOODY MIND MAN!
Secondly you say that in the Malaysia Cup days, the atmosphere is electrifying and that people like me in this era won't understand the feeling. Well, I for one personally feel that if YOU GUYS WERE TO SUPPORT SINGAPORE RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, HAND IN HAND AND ATTEND THEIR MATCHES WITH A SUPPORTIVE MIND, we can also let the future generations experience how you guys felt during the Malaysia Cup heydays, because we can still experience the same feeling today, if each and every one of the 55000 people put your hearts and minds into supporting Singapore instead of watching a soccer match at a stadium like watching a movie then staring at your betting tickets, there is a fine line between watching a match at a stadium and watching a match on television, notice that line please.
Guys, this is a globalised world, we don't wanna have to keep playing against State Teams, aim for the international stage man, stop being cheapskates. As for the government, please spend more budgets on developing Singapore soccer please, as soccer is the most supported sport in Singapore. Singaporeans can't live without it, increasing your budgets may well generate revenue and great interest in this sport on a local stage.
Okay I'm done with all these rantings, once again I shall emphasize that my term is generalised and not all Chinese are like that, also, not all Malays are supportive towards Singapore soccer too. But yes, together, let's strive on as a nation for the good of Singapore soccer.
Majulah Bola Sepak Singapura!

Had a 'little' conversation with Hazel ranting about the media's hype towards European soccer, I lost my head and came out with rash stuff blasting The New Paper but I simply had to let it out. Here's how the conversation went with me typing simultaneously without giving her time to even reply -.-
go see my post
so much hype frm the Singapore media
they are more interested in fucking shanghai than they do to their OWN SINGAPORE TEAM
LIKE WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!?!?!
IS THE NEW PAPER EVEN MADE IN SINGAPORE OR EUROPE
WHAT THE FUCK
WHY THE FUCK FOR
2 PAGES FULL OF SHANGHAI NEWS
HOW ABOUT NEWS FROM UR OWN COUNTRY'S TEAM?
HOW ABOUT THE WARRIORS?
NOT EVEN A FUCKING SECTION!
IS THAT WHAT THE SINGAPORE MEDIA HAS BECOME?
IS THAT SO?
SPARE A FUCKING THOUGHT TO THE WARRIORS WHEN THEY READ THE PAPERS
CUZ IF THEY SEE UR FUCKING REPORTS LEFT RIGHT CENTRE ON THEIR OPPONENTS!
HOW WOULD THEY FEEL?
HAVE THE NEW PAPER FELT FOR THEM?
THE WARRIORS' FUCKING CONFIDENCE IS ALREADY LOW CUZ THEY LOST 3 GAMES IN ALL COMPETITIONS IN 1 WEEK
MUST U ADD PETROLEUM TO FIRE?
SO WHAT IS HE IS A STAR PLAYER'S BROTHER?
YOU KNOW, THE BEST CHANCE FOR THE WARRIORS TO EVER FUCKING WIN A TEAM IN THIS PRESTIGIOUS TOURNAMENT
IS TOMORROW
BUT DUE TO UNFORSEEN CIRCUMSTANCES, THEIR MORALE IS DOWN
THEY LOST 3 IN A ROW
BUT WHY THE FUCK MUST THEY DO THIS TO FURTHER DAMPEN THE WARRIORS' SPIRITS?!?!?!
I MEAN
HAVE U GUYS FUCKING FELT FOR THEM?
WHATS ALL THE HYPE OF SHANGHAI?
IS IT NECESSARY?
FUCKING NEW PAPER MAN
THEY ONLY KNOW HOW TO BLAST SINGAPORE AND TALK BIG ON THEIR OPPONENTS
FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT
I NEVER SEEN ANY WORSE PAPER THAT IS 'MADE IN EUROPE'
So there it went, I hope you guys understand how I felt.

Tuesday's AFC Cup 2009 (Group H) Fixtures
(Singapore) Home United v Club Valencia (Maldives) (Jalan Besar Stadium, Singapore)
Kick off @ 7:30pm
This match would be shown LIVE on the Football Channel (Starhub Channel 27)!
(Vietnam) Becamex Binh Duong v Provincial Electricity Authority (Thailand) (Binh Duong Stadium, Vietnam)
Kick off @ 7pm
3 games, 2 wins and a loss. 3rd place in the table equal on points with Binh Duong and PEA with an inferior goal difference. How far do you think our Protectors can go? Well, we do stand a chance for now as Tuesday's opponents will be easy. But what if they overcome the odds and stun our home crowd? That we do not know but surely it's inevitable that a win is very very important if we wanna stand a chance to progress further in this competition. As this is just the AFC Cup, my demand for Home United is first position so that we can play the Round-of-16 matches at home (Jalan Besar Stadium) unlike for the SAF Warriors when a draw would already be enough. Though many may say that first position will be too demanding and not realistic, I shall say this again, we are not inferior to Vietnamese and Thai Leagues, as for the Maldives team of Valencia, they are improving so complacency should not kick in. The pole position is definitely possible, all we need is the fighting spirit and hunger that we Singaporeans have, to scare our opponents into submission. It may be too early to predict things but my gut feeling says we will do just that. A win would certainly pull off the stings for the remaining 2 games as we continue our Cup adventure. Anything other than a victory would certainly be disasterous. With both teams fielding a full-force, expect an all-out approach in the entertaining match where drama would unfold on Tuesday (:
"12 teams in the S-League, the top 10 League in Asia. 1 team in the AFC Champions League, 1 team in the AFC Cup. Both teams sharing a vision: To bring glory to Singapore football. 6 battles, 1 war. How far will they go to bring glory to Singapore football? Find out in the coming months!"

Wednesday's AFC Champions League 2009 (Group G) Fixtures
(Korea Republic) Suwon Samsung Bluewings v Shanghai Shenhua (China) (Suwon World Cup Stadium)
Kick off @ 6pm
(Japan) Kashima Antlers v Singapore Armed Forces (Singapore) (Kashima Soccer Stadium)
Kick off @ 6pm
My target for the Warriors to finish in this season's AFC Champions League was just a draw and that would do. Sadly it has been 3 games played and 3 losses so far. I don't blame them, in fact I'm still very proud of their performances. Individually and as a team, they stood up for Singapore and lived up to the occasion, something worth applauding. Their pure grit and camaraderie was there for all to see. With 3 games to go, can the Warriors at least force a draw against one of the three opponents we are playing? It remains to be seen. But one thing's for sure, it has been an impressive display by our Warriors thus far and being our debut season here, you don't expect much do you? As the Warriors travel to Japan to face the best team from the best league in Asia (You can call them the best team in Asia) known as Kashima Antlers, they would not have to fear defeat cuz they themselves know they can win it if they put in that belief and they already have the ability to take on the super-powers of Asia. Who cares about Kashima? MOVE OVER KASHIMA ANTLERS CUZ THE WARRIORS ARE IN THE HOUSE! (: WARRIORS ALL THE WAY!

HAHAHA (: oh well. after bio was english, miss oon as usual taught us various compre skills but the main point was the fact that i bullied her like mad. haha here's how it went:
Miss Oon: In order for you all to write an inspiring compo you must write what?
Me: Words!
Class laughs
Miss Oon: Oooooh, what an intelligent answer, OF COURSE WORDS LA NOT WORDS THEN WRITE WHAT?!?!?!
Whole class burst out laughing

Mrs Tay: (Scolds me)

(Tucks in number 1 tee). then she went to slap my shoulder and laughed. HAHAHA! on the whole today was a really fun day la, if only can bully more teachers, guess they needa be a bit flexible at times la, if not like no life lidat. :\ okay i needa sleep anytime now, so c ya! :D

had myob again today, although it's much better than yesterday, it still sucks man. sometimes i felt that i really wasted all my money. but oh well. but anyway! no time for all those crap cuz now it's about soccer, soccer and more soccer! Today is AFC Cup Matchday 2 and Home United played against Provincial Electricity Authority from Thailand in a Group H match held in Bangkok, Thailand. In the other Group H Fixture, Binh Duong from Vietnam played against Club Valencia from the Maldives in a match which is held in Binh Duong, Vietnam. Now let's all take a look at the results!
Today's AFC Cup (Group H) Results
(Vietnam) Becamex Binh Duong 3-0 Club Valencia (Maldives) (Gò Đậu Stadium, Vietnam)
Becamex Binh Duong Scorers: Luong Minh Trung (13th Minute), Jameel Mohamed (35th Minute Own Goal), Kesley Alves (63rd Minute)
(Thailand) Provincial Electricity Authority 2-1 Home United (Singapore) (Suphachalasai Stadium, Thailand)
PEA Scorers: Narongchai Vachiraban (57th Minute), Supakit Jinajai (65th Minute)
Home United Scorer: Shi Jia Yi (25th Minute)
Gutted. Absolutely gutted, our old team needs a little bit more resilience and energy. Where's Ismail? We need him to recover quickly, he will bring us just that fitness we need. But whatever it is, let's applaud the Protectors for a job well-done away from home. Well done Home United Protectors!

Okay since it's a Sunday I shall just touch up on Singapore Domestic Football...
Wednesday's AFC Champions League 2009 (Group G) Fixtures
(Japan) Kashima Antlers v Shanghai Shenhua (China) (Kashima Soccer Stadium, Japan) Kick off @ 6pm
(Singapore) Singapore Armed Forces v Suwon Samsung Bluewings (Korea Republic) (Jalan Besar Stadium, Singapore)
Kick off @ 7:30pm
"We may have lost the battle, but we have not lost the war." should be the mindset the Warriors are to take coming into this game. Having lost 4-1 to Shanghai Shenhua in the match which seemed that we matched them in most of the occasions and having seen Suwon Samsung Bluewings thrash Kashima Antlers 4-1 in a shocking tie, many would assume our Warriors will be battered 10-0 because we are no match for the Korean side. Well Singapore, lets brush off these speculations, because whatever the result, we all know the Warriors are gonna put up a good fight to please our home supporters (Hopefully the majority crowd at the Jalan Besar Stadium are Singaporeans of course, I do not want a repeat of last Tuesday when there was more Vietnamese fans). They have already shown it by putting up a good display against another Asian powerhourse, Shanghai Shenhua. Also, not forgetting that this is our first season in the AFC Champions League, there are bound to be adversities, scoring just 1 goal against Shanghai Shenhua was already an achievement to be remembered (Well done Wilko)! So lets work hand-in-hand to support our very own Warriors in their bid to gain due respect from the best team in Asia. Warriors Warriors All The Way!!!
Tuesday's AFC Cup 2009 (Group H) Fixtures

Kick off @ 7pm
(Thailand) Provincial Electricity Authority v Home United (Singapore) (Suphachalasai Stadium, Thailand)
Kick off @ 8pm
"1 down, 5 to go!" These are words for the Home United Protectors! Well done! You guys overcame Binh Duong 2-1 and with 3 points in the bag, lets add another 3 against PEA! Protectors, I'm telling you from my perspective. They may have a former player from Corinthians but if the Warriors can beat them, so can we! I am telling you guys. IT CAN BE DONE! SO LETS GO OUT THERE AND HAMMER THE THAIS IN THEIR OWN BACKYARD! Come On You Protectors!!!

it was a day's full of career stuff. it was really fun as a whole but what's most important was what i brought back home: knowledge. I learnt alot of essential stuff like how to face interviewers when i'm going on a job interview. this was the critical part of today, apart from that, it was just another ordinary day of talks...

Today
Since it's a Sunday why not talk a bit about Singapore's Domestic Soccer? :D
Wednesday's AFC Champions League 2009 (Group G) Fixtures
(Korea Republic) Suwon Samsung Bluewings v Kashima Antlers (Japan) (Suwon World Cup Stadium, Korea)
Kick off @ 7pm
(China) Shanghai Shenhua v Singapore Armed Forces (Singapore) (Hongkou Stadium, China)
Kick off @ 8pm
So there you have it guys, the first real test for Singapore's soccer standard at domestic level. Yes, it's a really a sense of achievement that one of our Singapore clubs have made it to Asia's premier club competition. The AFC CHAMPIONS LEAGUE! (: Let's celebrate for the Warriors! I mean, I may not be a fan of them domestically but look at what they have done for Singapore football! They have done something way beyond words and expectations. You can certainly feel the sense of achievement among the players and fans as right after the referee's whistle against PSMS Medan of Indonesia, many people jumped for joy and celebrated. Some even went to the extent of crying. The Champions League, how much it really means to our Warriors and most importantly, Singapore soccer.
I wrote on Aleksander Duric's wall on Facebook, congratulating him on the win. Told him not to be discouraged for not scoring against PEA and Medan as there's still another chance of scoring at the Group Stage. I also told him I dreamt that he scored against Kashima Antlers, the top team from the league which happens to be the top league in Asia (In short, you can say they are the best team in Asia). His reply was, "Thanks so much, I hope I will score goals in group stage, it is good that Singapore has a club in the AFC Champions League. How cool is that! Thanks for supporting us. Cheers, Alex."
Guys. By looking at Aleksander's reply, you can just see the fire in his eyes, how he is raring to go and slay the top teams in Asia, how determined he is to pull off these matches for the glory of our nation. These are the people I would really admire. Look at his passion, his pride, his patriotism, he did not only talk about the Warriors as a club but also talked about Singapore as a whole. Guys, we have what it takes to be in the Champions League, to pull off good results against these top teams. But there's still this 1 question that remains. That is, do you have what it takes to support our very own Warriors in their quest for Asian Glory? Like I said, I do not support the Warriors domestically. BUT FOR SINGAPORE FOOTBALL'S SAKE, I WILL DO SO! Will you?!
Now for the blasting of the media. First question: WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!?!?! NO TELEVISION COVERAGE, NO NEWSPAPER COVERAGE, NO NEWS COVERAGE, NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING AT ALL! COME ON YOU BASTARDS! THIS IS THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE! THE EVER-SO PRESTIGIOUS CHAMPIONS LEAGUE, YOU OWN COUNTRY'S CLUB IS IN THIS PREMIER COMPETITION! THEY ARE THE TOP 32 TEAM IN ASIA! WHY THE FUCK YOU FUCKING BASTARDS DIDN'T AT LEAST CREDIT THEM?!?!?! WHY DO YOU BASTARDS HAVE TO TALK SO MUCH ABOUT THOSE EUROPEAN FOOTBALL CRAP WHEN THEY ARE JUST HAVING THEIR DOMESTIC LEAGUE AND WHY DO YOU BASTARDS NOT TALK ABOUT THE WARRIORS AT LEAST ONCE THE MOMENT THEY FOUGHT THEIR HEARTS OUT AND MADE IT TO THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE?!?!?! WHY?! WHY?!?!?! WHY?!?!?!?!?! Disappointing. Absolutely disappointing. Sometimes I really feel for the Warriors, they worked overtime just to deliver this result Singapore ever needed and demanded. The moment we got exactly that. No credit, nothing, zero, zilch. WHAT THE FUCKING HELL IS THIS?!?!?! I've searched through all the Sports Channels TV Guide. NO FUCKING COVERAGE ON THAT MATCH AGAINST SHANGHAI! WHAT IS THIS?!?!?! If you fucking idiots can televise a LIVE match between Home United and Binh Duong in the AFC CUP, why can't you guys televise the match between Shanghai and Singapore Armed Forces in the AFC CHAMPIONS LEAGUE?!?!?! Did you guys left your brain in your assholes or something?!?!?! I'm fucking pissed with the media once again. They are made in Singapore but never contributed to Singapore's sporting success. They all are a disgrace to Singapore's media...
Somehow I totally agree to what Brandon said, which is that the AFC Champions League means NOTHING to 90% of Singaporeans. But for the devoted 10%, it's history in the making.
Tuesday's AFC Cup 2009 (Group H) Fixtures

This is it guys. Asia's second-tier club competition behind the AFC Champions League. It is the AFC Cup! Singapore too has a club representative in the form of Home United! This is the team whom I support domestically and just like the Warriors, I'll be going all out for them too because of one thing: They are out to do Singapore football proud. Abang Ismail Yunos! You are still a young player with lots to learn, this is your first AFC Cup campaign. Cherish it and take it with both hands! I will always be behind you! So will all the rest of my beloved Protectors! Let's take this tournament all the way and be successful in whatever we do! (:

Well since it's a Saturday post why not talk a bit about Singapore Soccer? :D
There's been speculation of the Liverpool team from the BPL coming to Singapore to play against our National Team... God knows where or when but it's happening here in Singapore. Many of my schoolmates who support Liverpool were talking about how they are going there in red to support LIVERPOOL and shout for TORRES and stuff like that but for me, I didn't give a shit to what they say. Cuz I know which team I wanna support and you guys can mock me for all I care. In the end we shall see who has the last laugh. You guys would then realise that results don't matter at all. It's the fighting spirit we Lions have in which you bloody scousers don't have. You all may win us 10-0, 20-0 or even 30-0 but despite all that, you don't know there your pride lies, you dunno what's called passion and patriotism, you guys are STILL NOT WORTH A PINCH OF SALT!!! This is just a little warning to Singaporean fans who support Liverpool, I still know some who supports Liverpool but will go 'country-first'. For that, I applaud you, but for those who INSIST on supporting Liverpool OVER YOUR OWN COUNTRY OF BIRTH, EDUCATION, WORK, REST AND PLAY. Go ahead...

Friday
day started off with bio in which i didn't go, so i shan't blog about that, went for mother tongue. it was a freaking test on paper 2 which sucks to the core, i couldn't really finish things the way i want it to. oh well... after mother tongue was SS, mdm choo just covered the freaking workbook thats it, nothing much happened except for me erasing some contents of the workbook which seemed fun. HAHAHA! :D
after recess was english, ms oon just showed the whole class an interesting documentary on the brain again, then she released us off for chapel so late that the bloody mr ho thought we were slow in movements and held us back -.- basket sia...
after that went for npcc, was supposed to tidy up the npcc room and outside but suddenly i was given the task to teach the sec 1s. ZZZ damn, i hate teaching, i dun even know why i'm even on the training section. that role STINKS like hell! but surprisingly, i felt i did kinda a great job in teaching the sec 1s (well that's because their drills are easy and it's easy to spot their mistakes -.-) but still vomitted blood la basically. people making the same mistakes all over again and i was like repeating everything again. but i'm glad i managed to teach them many different drills and on a whole it was okay. they were quite a hyper bunch of people. haha so that means i have to further project my voice to the extent that people ask me to take honey when i reach home but i was like, it's okay, i'm used to it, i've been cheering for Singapore for more than a year already, this is nothing much compared to screaming at a stadium. haha. well after the parade went to clear up the npcc room before heading home for a mass break. haha (:

day started off with mother tongue, whole class had to do paper 2 throughout the whole period, obviously i didn't manage to finish it. mr ng's voice is so monotonous i just slept in class luhh :\ after mother tongue was poa, did the class test, should get full marks bah, i managed to balance everything and there's no theory questions. yipee! :D
after recess was e math, mrs tay taught the class a new chapter on vectors. more or less understood what she taught. was quite straightforward la this chapter. was like measuring the magnitude of a line labelled B and C then she kept saying CB CB CB until whole class laugh like siao. so funny lor! haha!!! after math was chem, ms aliah gone through chemical analysis worksheet before giving out test results. i scored a 14/20. to me i felt okay luhh though i can do much much better, i did not study to my fullest and paid the price for it, just a puny A2 ): certainly not my target but oh well, i should just work harder for the next test which will be more difficult for me la ):
after dismissal i went to Justin's house along with Zhe Yi to pass him his math worksheet (Justin's absent today). before heading back for school for e math peer tutoring. Shing Pheng was really patient with me. that's a bad thing cuz i felt for her, i mean, i suck at math, i dun even know how i even made it to peer tutoring, i thought i would be under a teacher but no, i'm under her and i feel bad not cuz she's bad (she isn't bad a tutor AT ALL) but it's like i'm a burden to her. sigh... after that i headed home to do my homework, really dread tomorrow. it's cca ): can't they just make SRP on fridays? i'm dying like hell thanks to redundant stuff which wont pull up my marks! ):

day started off with math. had a class test, overall it was okay... aiming for a B3, think i would get B4 or worst come worst, if mrs tay in bad mood and marks like an alien maybe i'll just pass. don't really think i would fail but still i should not be too complacent, haha. after math was english, went to com lab to do some stupid openings of a compo and usage of sentences miss oon gave us in the team discussions section... i done it in like 15 minutes and slacked throughout. HAHAHA!
after recess was d&t, mr lim spent 2 periods just to show us pictures and the final period to finalize what we are all gonna make for the project... it was nice to know that whatever item i wanna make is approved and i'll be sticking to it for the rest of the project! i doubt i would change that idea, it relates soccer in a way and that's just an artifact i'm gonna make to prove my loyalty towards singapore football, you can keep guessing but i wont be making a soccer ball la. HAHAHA! after d&t was cme, nothing much happened la, it was like a free period. haha. went for lunch after dismissal before heading home... (:

Yesterday
day started off with bio, did experiments on reducing sugars and starch... very boring la, it's like you keep practicing many times even though you 'know it all'. well, shan't speak too soon, sekali during o level practical i mati. haha! after bio was english. went to watch a documentary on how the brain works, nothing much to say except for it being too 'bio'. haha! (: but it was nice though, i thoroughly enjoyed it (:
after recess was d&t, got back the first results on our journal, i scored a 41/50! (: okay la, up to my expectations. highest was Chastina with 42. so inevitable, she's like so hardworking. haha! after d&t was POA, mrs tang started on a new chapter already, okay la, it was quite easy, i can more or less understand what she has said over that period (: after POA was math, mrs tay taught the class sets theory until i felt like sleeping sia. i feel like learning but her tone was simply too monotonous i just slept lorrrrr... zzzzz haha after that went for lunch before heading for chinese remedial. it was really wicked can? i'm like the only sec 4 there, the rest were sec 5s. they were damn funny mannn. how i wished i had that much interest in chinese as them, bunch of jokers. haha. after remedial went to j8 with brandon to develop my photos for the d&t project before waiting for Kenna, decided to like slack around with her for half an hour, since we live near, why not? haha as we were walking back, we saw a double rainbow! (so you shouldn't regret me choosing to walk instead of take bus yeah? ) (: it was a beautiful sight to her but sadly i don't really enjoy all these. haha, had a really great time with her, i kinda like made her my maid as she was carrying my file with my d&t journal inside :D sent her home before heading home myself to slaaaaaaaack! :D
