25th-29th dec

todae's e 29th of dec

aniwae, christmas was quite okay. Went to church wif my cuzzies in e morning for mass. Quite enriching..esp e preaching part...abt Power...tt was very interesting, humourous, but nevertheless did pack quite a message. I did think over it for quite some time. After e mass, dere was a lunch reception. Eunice's frends, oso from NJ, came. haha..i recognized one of em..how? I rmb Eunice was taking e bus in e wrong direction, n her friend was wif her. i kept telling her it was wrong direction, but she insisted she was correct! even her friend agreed wif her! in e end, she realli travelled in e wrong direction! haha..Esther(her sis) told me! i was laughing my hearts out.

aniwae, told em i wanted to eat abit...but how i noe i did eat quite a substantial amt! Geesh..i was full man! aniwae, had a chat wif my cuzzies, b4 my aunt n uncle drove me bac home. e rest of e dae was spent practicing e piano, so nthg much.

Post christmas,26th. Morning headed down to Tedd's place for lesson as usual. He gave me many fingerings for e A flat ballade..finally, problems solved. But i've gotta work harder on e Liszt coz of e recordings coming up. Aniwae, afternoon my cuzzies came again. haha..dey were an hour late man! Found out dey went shopping! Played Crash Bash...haha! den after a while, played DDR..Esther not bad sia! Soon enuff, my uncle n aunt came, had dinner...n time flew, n dey left around 10pm. quite nice...had a hearty gaming session wif em.

That nite, while watching news, heard bout e Tsunami that hit mani countries. It was truely terrifying man! E Death toll's one of e highest i've seen. What's more, it didn't juz hit A country. It hit MANY countries! Geesh. On tt dae, e current death toll was abt 10k. Todae, 29th, e death toll's abt 55k. Now..tt's 5.5 times e original amount..geesh...

I find it very very saddening as it happening on boxing dae. Not onli tt, it happened on e morning after christmas! Juz wen u tot u could enjoy a dae @ e beach..wen suddenly, a tsunami comes...n boom...everything around u juz disappears under e ocean water. Ani of ya watched Deep Impact or The Day After Tommorrow? ya...e scene if almost e same. Sometimes, we dunnoe wen we're gonna leave this world, so gotta live everydae to e fullest!

Enuff of sadness, im down wif e darn flu..tis sux totally! n i've gotta do recording too..geezer! aniwae, looking fwd to sch reopening nxt wk! how time flies..2004 is gonna end soon, n here comes 2005! haha..see new faces, n from wad i noe, onli 1 marist confirm coming here..heh..not surprised lor. Aniwae, marists dun come to NJ. im those rare few. Juz haf to c who's coming down!

Aniwae peeps, enjoy ur Week! =)

finally, could rest on 24th,so went out wif shaun to watch Kung Fu Hustle @ 1pm. haha...damn farny show. darn...we ended up watching in e lousy lido4. e seats sux lor...so little leg room. aniwae, overall, e show was darn entertaining....though i wasn't laughing my head off, but it was still very entertaining..esp e effects! wah lau..those moves damn cool sia! haha! esp e last part, wen stephen chow fight all e baddies..like matrix liddat lor..haa..dey're almost making a spoof outta matrix.

After e show, shaun headed down to my place...played Crash Bash..for like sae..10 mins? haha..den he rushed off to church, while i went to my council x'mas party

had some difficulty finding my juniors place. but i was quite impressed wif e estate lor...it looks so much like a chalet..except tis one has 3 floors and a basement. realli gives u tt neightbourhood feeling..like everyone living together under e same roof.

so during e party, played Crash Bash, n some other games. haha..Mahjong was damn farn lor...my junior tian chin, luff n luff n luff, haha...den benjamin oso make those damn stupid remarks....damn farny...we all luff until i couldn't even throw my tile down lor. it was sooo farny...but aniwae,i've finally LEARNT how to play mahjong. haha..though im abit unsure how to start e game...e dealing part,but other den tt, e rest i very clear.

after which, exchanged prezzies. i oso played grand theft auto:san andreas! wah lau! damn evil lor e game! but it feels sooooo great to b e bad guy! haha! den later my junior help me type cheat code, den i got tis tank! i even flew a harrier sia! haha..damn farny...den blast e living day lights outta e cops!

It was reaching midnite liaoz, so quickly left wif chung ee, tinghan and chung teck(chung ee younger bro). during e journy, chung ee and i gave lotsa advice to our juniors abt JC life. heh..i've gone thru tt period oreli, so it was nice passing on e knowledge.

17th Dec

Finally, outta my home..can finally chill out n interact wif pple...yesh..i almost havent gone outta my home for a week, n im going nuts already!

aniwae, met brent, pradeep n hengwee @ PS todae. Had lunch together @ BK. Darn..dey were 1/2 and hour late lor! but whu cares! aniwae, had a quick bite, den we headed down to Star Fac to play....PERCUSSION MASTER!!! HW left coz he had smthg to do in sch....council stuff, from wad i heard

haha...deep like almost nvr play initially, so it was brentz n i slogging it out for e best. After a while, din wanna play. yeah..had some small headache..dunnoe wad it was..guess muz b due to e loud noises..but i kinda gotten used to being partially deaf in e arcade liaoz..dunnoe y..

aniwae, shaun arrived soon enuff, n den we headed down to watch National Treasure. Overall, quite impressive. 3/5 stars. haha..dey did manage to make e plot QUITE believable i would sae, though im sure such a treasure would nvr exist.

After e movie, headed down again to star fac..tis time it was shaun playing PM and slogging it out wif brent. haha..deep did play later..surprisingly. I got abit tired of playing PM, so played keyboard mania and beatmania! damn..dey're so darn tuff man! Even for 3 stars it's so freakin confusing sia! all e small little keys coming down..urgh! What makes me wonder is y pple who play Percussion Freaks are always so DAMN good! u nvr, or rarely c amateurs play..those whu usually do r so damn fast sia!so damn good too. i 1der how much dey've spent into e darn game to b so darn good.

Headed down to e X Zone @ DB MRT to play. damn..deep n brent got chased out coz tis dweeb managed to recognized dey were wearing NJ house T. aniwae, bidded farewell to em, n shaun n i stayed dere. i played abit of DDR, but kept losing...guess gotta get used to e new tracks AND a new playing style, which required u to put ur feet n hold it over @ 1 arrow, n tap e others...which definitely increases e difficulty up a notch.

When i was outta e arcade again, e darn headache came bac again. Ate something light wif shaun...dunnoe wassup todae. after dinner, headed bac. dunnoe y, i feel tired, n e headache did linger on. haha..it's so unlike me. mayb it's too much staying around @ home..

geesh! i've JUS gotta do my Christmas shopping fast! darnnit!aniwae, ardios pple~

here i m again, blogging, with nthg better to do

1st things first, it's grrrreat to b able 2 play my piano @ home. aniwae, e upgrade did work! e keys r much harder, n yesh, dey're also more sensitive to my touch. heh! though i cant play my octaves wif e speed n agility tt i once could, tt's a small issue. i tink once i get my octaves done, dey'll b darn strong. aniwae, had some probs wif e middle pedal, so called up Mr Man to help me wif it. haha..apparently, it was such a minor job. juz turn e screw clockwise, n it's all done...kaoz!

aniwae, im glad yc patched up wif his gf. sigh~ sometimes all these relationships can cause lotsa troubles, but well, once both parties can agree n r willing to put aside their differences, it'll b much smoother sailing. Love is complicated....

im glad tedd's coming bac tis sun, got quite some stuff to discuss wif him, esp bout nxt wk...yeah...im starting to feel bit moody now..dunnoe y. mayb im jealous...tt everyone out dere's enjoying their hols, while im here, @ home, working my guts out @ e piano. Aniwae, tis's e path's i've chosen..i realli hope it works out too. Hope it all pays off...sometimes, i sit alone, in my room..thinking bout whether it'll work out, whether i'll pull thru tis,wondering....worrying...etc.. yeah...ever since i took up tis path, so mani things haf come to my mind. I sometimes feel im being v isolated from e world...deep down inside, im kinda suffering...im a guy who loves socializing, juz tt i cant, coz of tis committment. i ask myself...izzit worth while? will it pay off?

I only pray n hope God continues to guide me.

aniwae, im tired of writing all these. nitez~

hmm..tis aint a signal tt im updating my blog frequently..juz nthg to do..so decided to blog

im feeling strange these past couple of daes...seems to me every alternate daes i will catch a cold..yesh..strange right? but seems 2 b tt dae. one dae, im sneezing..n everything, n e nxt, im fine, after i've eaten medication.den on e 3rd dae, tis comes bac again..izzit e sinus? o well...juz haf to c wad's wrong wif me.

mom's pretty much in a bad mood todae...im grumpy todae too.mayb itz coz i din play my piano for e past few daes...im kinda cheesed off tuner didn't come n return my keys for e piano todae...urgh...i suspect he was lazing around...kinda pisses me off..but o well..he saez he's comin tmr(mondae 13th). i kinda dislike mondae e 13th, aint exactly a nice dae. y? Coz who looks fwd to mondae? Mondae Blues . 13th aint a nice number either..sigh..wth la.

over this weekend been doing my hmwk..yah..haha..maths n phy. getting realli tired of it..though i started..o well, mayb e momentum aint dere la. sian...den i realized i couldn't do alot of qns...pissed off. concepts aint dere yet..o well*shrugs shoulders*

ya..im so bored, i dunnoe wad im writing. installed COD:UO again n played it. quite fun la..though gets abit boring after a while. Though e single player still rox. Juz finished watching e 9th episode for Band of Brothers. n yesh...i've watched e whole series(all 10 episodes) @ least 5-6 times already. but i still dun get sick of it lor...n im watching it again..lol! i guess it's e realism n e moments of humanity admist e warzone tt makes it such a compelling mini-series. it's one of those movies tt not onli depicts e horrors of war, but also e power of wad miracles e human heart can do. yep...Bravery...Chivalry..etc..those kinda stuff. e 9th episode featured abt e discovery of e Nazi Concentration camp..whereby dey found those Jews. Yeah...quite gross...all e dead bodies...sigh...so mani pple were murdered during tt time. innocent pple. sometimes life's unfair...but hey...who saez life was ever fair ;)? juz gotta accept it n make e best use of our life

We only live Life once, so Live it to e fullest!
