Crushed, torned apart.. But.. Who cares?

Crushed, torn apart.. but.. who cares?

Live today, for tomorrow.

I was supposed to go school today. But, luckily, I found out from Jasmine that the lessons were boring. Lucky me.

I spent the whole day watching the anime: Blood+ Its a really good anime, nice storyline, nice sound effects and most of all, nice actors. :p

Well, according to my watch its already 10.30pm. And i'm bloody bored.

I found out. Why couldn't you just tell me, instead of making me friggin' wait?

H1N1. An pandemic?
Jun 29, 2009
H1N1, an epidemic?

Okay, H1N1 is starting to freak me out. I just got word that 3 of my PREVIOUS school teachers (in Hai Sing.) were suspected to have H1N1. Not only that, the total cases of H1N1 now in Singapore is already 556. WTFriggers?! Its already reached half a thousand. *Shivers*

Anyways, I'm lucky enough that I don't have H1N1. (Thank you sweet Jesus.) And God bless all the infected people. May God be with you, and that you'll recover.

Today, I was supposed to attend school, for some e-biz learning thingie. But unfortunately, I didn't go. (Even though it was "compulsary".) Actually, I was already dressed up and ready to leave the house. BUTTTT.. I ate lunch before I went. You guys must be thinking.. "So..?" well, here's the sad part. I ate bad Duck Rice. Yes, I did. Although it tasted good, I went straight to the toilet after eating it. Maybe its because of something else or whatnot, but I was crapping in the toilet bowl non-stop for the whole day.

Now, as I'm typing this entry, I'm having a EXTREMELY painful stomach ache. It feels much better now, cause I was pouring "Fong Yew" on my stomach. But it still hurts.

Dah, did nothing but sit/lie/roll/cursing and swearing @ the Duck Rice on bed. Sure, I played abit of guitar here and there. Always trust on me favourite guitar to cheer me up! Anyways, I don't know whether I'm in shape to go to the lesson tomoro.

We'll hafta wait and see.

Painfully signin' off.

Dammit, am I lazy or what..?
Jun 28, 2009
Dammit, am I lazy or what..?

Once again, I forgot to type in an entry. And once again, I'm sorry. BUTTTT.. I wanted to upload 2 videos yesterday. 1 video about my progress on the song: "For my Father" by Andy Mckee. And another about me making a video blog. So I don't hafta type it in. Apparently, for some god-forsaken reason, I CAN'T upload the videos. Which obviously and disgustingly ISN'T cool.

Oh well..

Anyways, its currently 8.10pm now. And I basically spent the whole day watching about the life & death of MJ. (R.I.P. MJ.) Kinda sad.. To watch him get to the top, and drop all the way to the bottom.

Enough about that, I'll just post on yesterday.

Well, yesterday was kinda a fun day for me. Basically its because I spent a night over @ Mervin's. But instead of us three amigo's, it was only me staying over @ his place. So it was kinda boring, without ZX around. Anyway, we spent the whole night watching Snooker and how amazingly cute the balls look when they were rolling around on the table. Only thing, the commentator made the match sound like a Chess competition. You can imagine how boring it was. So anyway, Merv, being bored, decided to turn his computer on, and shortly after, he started showing me peektures on guitar that was being sold online. Merv referred to the peektures as "Guitar porn." Why? It's because, the guitars looked SOOO good & amazingly sexy, with their curves.. and whatnot. So, we were practically killing ourselves because everytime we saw a amazingly guitar, we'd usually go "WHOA, OMFG. I SOOOO WANT THAT GUITAR.. BUT ITS 400 BUCKS. FORGET IT." And it goes on, and on, and on. You can imagine how torturing it was, to look at such a BEAUTIFUL guitar, and not being able to touch it. ARGH.

Anyways, halfway through, Mervin started to have a stomach ache. Not because he ate something bad, he had it cause he didn't eat anything at all. So, Merv decided to make EGGS for us. I remembered him warning me about his eggs being lousy or something. But when he gave the plate of eggs.. It was REALLLLLY GOOD. I mean, for someone whom I've never seen him cook, his eggs were really good. But, Merv, didn't believe me. What does that mean? He doesn't trust me. What a wonderful friend eh..? :(

After that APPETIZING supper, we decided to watch Snooker again. It was around 6am at that time. Merv was lying down on the couch while I played Far Cry 2. Weirdly, Far Cry 2 didn't seem as fun as I thought it would be. Maybe its cause I was too tired or something. But anyways, I played it till like.. 7.30am? Then, I went to check on Merv because he was amazingly quiet. Guess what? He was asleep! Yeah well, I was tired too. So I lied down on his other couch, and slept.

NEXT MORNING~
(Or afternoon.)

I woke up at around.. 3pm in the afternoon. First me, then Merv. I went to wash up and stuff, and he did the same. Then, Merv turned on the TV and watched Snooker again. Then, Merv started to complain about being hungry and stuff. In the end we ordered McDonald's. Merv ordered McWings while I ordered a McChicken meal. Food really tastes good when your hungry..

After we ate, I turned Merv's XBox on, and started playing GTA till about.. 7? Then, I think Merv recieved a message from Nick saying whether do we wanna play pool or not. So, we suggested to play Snooker instead, y'know, to try it out and such. Nick agreed. So, Merv and me decided to head back to my place, because I smelt funky. And I needed a shower. So while Merv waited, he played MGS4, since he was DYING to see Sunny.

Went to bathe.. Nick arrived.. Changed.. Waited for the bus.. Listened music on my PSP.. AND.. POOF, we arrived in SAFRA.

It was about.. 10pm when we arrived. So, we opened a Snooker table and started playing.



(Courtesy of Mervin & his phone.)

Yeah, we played and played, ate Maggi Mee.. played again.. Nick left. Leaving us two. Played another 2 rounds.. Then, we decided to end the game.. It was already.. 2.40am? So, being THAT late, any Singaporean would know that the buses don't run that late. So we came to a conclusion that we had to walk home from SAFRA. Crazy, I know.. Luckily, Merv's dad was able to pick us up. He stopped @ the nearby petrol station to pimp his ride and then finally, sent me back.

(Thanks loads Merv.)

Came back, watched abit of Tears to Tiara, and went to bed.

Before I end this entry off, I wanna post the pictures that were taken on the day that we went jamming @ Mervin's place. We all wanna show off our sexy guitars.. Right? :D

Mervin's Stagg Bass Guitar.

Strangers.. In my house.
Jun 25, 2009
Strangers.. In my house?

*Does anyone else realize that it's already 2.24am?* Yeah, I know, I've not been posting an entry for quite some time now. At least I'm posting one now, aren't I? Anyways, not a lot of things have happened during the past few days.. I won't blah about them now, cause I'm kinda tired.. (And the weather is nice and cold too.)

Anyway, about my front title, its true that a stranger (not completely.) is currently staying in my house.

Why?
Apparently, she doesn't have a place to stay. So my mum, being as she is, decided to offer her our place. Seems like she accepted the request almost immediately.

Who?
She's my mum's friend. Apparently, shes my uncle's friend too. So that must mean that I saw her before, which I highly doubt so. She looks completely new.

Where?
THANK HEAVENS she didn't take my room. She's staying in my mum's room. BUTTT.. Even though my mum's room has a TV in it, she still comes out to the living room to watch TV. That means, I can't play my PS3 whenever she's around. Damnz-a-ding-dong.

How long?
She's gonna be staying till Saturday. Hopefully.

Oh well, if I was someone's mum's friend.. I would be eternally grateful if I were to stay over at her place. Imagine roaming around Singapore without a place to stay. *Shrugs*

Enough about that.

MY GRADES ARE OUT~

Yes, it is. FINALLY, I am able to look at my GPA for the very first time! Yes, for the VERY FIRST TIME. Damn lecturers don't allow us to do shit. ANYWAY, I was kinda pleased with my results.

DPH - A.
VP1 - B.
COG - A friggin' D.
Overall GPA - 3.188.

I would've got a higher GPA if it wasn't for COG. That god damned module. ANYWAY, the past is past. Can't do anything about it, except to bitch.

There's guitar tomoro, hope I'm able to wake up on time. Well, always look on the brighter side of life, I can finally write a MEANINGFUL entry tomoro.

Takecare,

I had fun.
Jun 20, 2009
When life gives you lemons.. You make Beef Stew!

Sorry for not posting about yesterday. I came back at around.. 3.45am? So I figured that I'll post it whenever I wake up.

Yesterday was a great day, we had alot of fun, met up with our long-lost partners-in-crime. Here's what happened. Warning though, I can predict that this will be a long post. So, have fun reading it!

The original plan was to meet at 12pm SHARP at Pasir Ris MRT Station. So me, ALWAYS being late, decided to wake up early. Since I take like.. an hour to get ready.. I woke up, switched on the computer, and went to brush my teeth. I,then, Youtube'd till like.. 11plus? I managed to research more about the band: Skillet. Apparently, it seems that they're a christian band! Though their music sounds like Linkin Park at times. I heard some of their music on Youtube, and they were pretty good. So I went to 'GET' some of their songs online, and I was stuck to their songs ever since. Don't get me wrong though, I'm still in love with We the Kings. :D

So, Kelvin & me made plans to meet before we went off to the MRT Station. I was kinda late by.. 10 mins? Surprisingly, Kelvin didn't nag at all. Maybe it's because he was stuck to his PSP like glue.. iunno. Anyway, we made our way to Whitesands on foot, in the scorching and torturing heat. It was only a 5min walk from where we were and we're already sweating like PIGS. DAMNZ-A-DING-DONG. ANYWAY, when we arrived in Whitesands, we got the word that Daph has already reached, so we went to meet her, and made our way to McDonalds to sit.

We went up to the second floor, found a place, and sat. We did lotsa talking, about nonsense, and about Daphane's boyfriend and such.. After which, Edmund arrived, then Jet, then Wei En, then Jasmine. Since most of us were there, we then made our way to the MRT Station, meeting Merv along the way. Tapped in.. blahza-ding-dong.. then we saw Ching Huat @ the second floor.. blahza-ding-dong.. rode all the way to Outram, stopped, took the opposite train.. BLAHBALHLBALHLLLL-DING-DONG. AND FINALLY, we arrived in Vivo City. It was kinda my second-time there.. But everything seemed so familiar, like i've been there for like.. a million times. Anyway, we went straight to GV, and saw a LLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG line. Since the girls had such a lazy attitude and such.. they decided to queue up for us, while we, the boys, clearly the more clever ones, went to Challenger to look around, Kelvin needed to get a mouse. Although you can get mouse's at petshops, but whatever.. (Get it?) So me and Merv, both owning a console, went to look for.. you guessed it.. GAMES. Note to self though: Don't buy games from Challenger. They're FRIGGIN' EXPENSIVE. Its like.. 80 bucks for a crappy game. Just cause its new, doesn't mean they have the right to sell it at such a expensive price.

Though, they were selling Gears of War 1 @ 35 bucks. So I persuaded Merv to get it, since its such a nice game and all.. Iunno, maybe he's gonna buy it? Yeah so.. After the looking around and such.. We recieved a call from Jasmine saying that they bought the tickets. So we made our way out, and started to calculate about who owes how much money and such. After which we headed to the arcade. NOTE TO SELF AGAIN: DO NOT PLAY POOL @ VIVO'S ARCADE. Its amazing how the cushions of the pool table were able to MOVE. The table looked like it came back from the war, the cues looked like they were shoved up somebody's ass, and the balls.. well, you get the point.

We kinda played like.. 2v2, so we occupy less time. I partnered Merv, while Ching Huat partnered with Jerome.. and Kelvin with Jet. (I think.) So we played, and played, it was kinda hard though, the pocket's guards thingies (Iunno whats it called.) were dropping off everytime we scored a ball in them. So it WASN'T a pleasant game. After pool, the cost was like.. 9+? Since it's divided among us 6, we each, only had to pay like.. 1.40? So, it wasn't so bad.. Anyway, after that horrible experience, we went ahead to our movie.

We watched a movie called: Ghost of Girlfriend's Past.

Yeah, it was a GOOOD show. I seriously thought it was a major rip-off. But it was actually really really good. It made me WANNA cry, TWICE mind you.

Anyway, after the movie, we went to the toilet, finished up my Mango Snapple. We made our way back to Pasir Ris, stopping by Candy Empire. Merv.. being him, bought like.. TONS of sweets. It looks like he was going for a camp or something.

Shoutout to Merv: You better lay low on the sweets brah, or else you'll NEVER get your braces off. Lmao.

So, we took the MRT. While we were in the MRT, Ching Huat introed us this WEIRDLY but AMAZINGLY fun hand game. Its something like.. "Chi-Kou-Pah" But its something different. So me, Ching Huat, Edmund & Jerome were playing it from Outram ALLL the way to Pasir Ris, yes it was THAT fun. So we stopped @ Pasir Ris, tapped out, and went to the nearby Pasar Malam. Bought some nonsense, and made our way to E!HUB. To.. PLAY POOL, DUHHHHZA-DING-DONG. Upon arrival, we met ZX and we noticed that the pool centre was FRIGGIN' PACKED. So we waited, while the girls went to the arcade. After like.. 30 mins, we managed to get a table. And then, we played like.. 2v2 again.

Shoutout to Ching Huat: YOUR GOOD! We should sooo totally play again sometime, and thanks for teaching me a thing or two about Pool.

Yeah, after afew games, the girls came back from their gaming-frenzy. And they went all photo-frenzy with us, WHILE WE WERE PLAYING MIND YOU. So they were like.. shouting and screaming like: TAKE PICTURE, COME COME. Lol, I had lotsa fun though. So after afew peektures, the girls decided to ditch us, leaving the guys alone to carry on with our game of Pool. We played like.. 2 Hours? And the total cost was: $24. Splitted among us, is.. $4 per person. Cheap eh? So after our game, we proceeded to the toilet to wash our hands, and finally, we said our goodbyes to Jet & Ching Huat. Leaving me, Merv & ZX. (The Three Amigos.) Then, us three headed to 24hr CoffeeExpress to have our late night dinner! I ordered a bowl of Fried Fish Meat soup with Milk along with a bowl of rice @ $3.50. It wasn't so bad, maybe I'm too used to it, because I've been ordering it like.. almost everytime I eat there. Anyways, we ate, and we had a amusing conversation about.. a person.

After which, we headed back towards my place cause thats where Merv usually goes to go home. And since there were no buses, ZX decided to tag along with us. In the end, we talked & talked till about.. 3.15am? We talked about alot of stuff, like.. "If you had an option to kill yourself, what would it be?" Or something about Bobo or something.. LOL, it was fun. In the end, Merv's dad came to fetch him & ZX back home.

THE END.

Wow, that was the MOST detailed post i've ever posted. And yeah, everything I wrote here is what EXACTLY happened on Friday, I didn't leave ANYTHING out. (I think.) Hope you enjoyed this massive long post. Lmaoza-ding-dong!

Why do I even bother..
Jun 18, 2009
Why do I even bother..

There was guitar classes today. It started at 2pm, and I woke up at.. 10am. Haha, yup, I wasn't late today. (Thats a first.) So I did the usual, got up, brushed my teeth, ate lunch & finally decided to head down to the PTC.

When I arrived, I saw everyone EATING. It was like they were having some food ritual or something. Luckily, I ate @ home. Though, everyone was asking me whether have I ate or not..

Guitar was a breeze today. I thought my ever-attentive class the next few lines of "If We Hold On Together". They were pretty much attentive all the way.

Shoutout to my wonderful students: Next week, will be my last week teaching you guys! SAD ME. Though, I'm sure you guys will continue practicing your skills even though I'm not there right? I'll be checking back with CC to see how far you've progressed! Keep up the good work!

Yeah, to second that above comment, next week will be my last week of guitar teaching @ PTC. Why? Its because of my new school timetable. It seems like from Monday to Thursday i'll be ending at 6pm. And, guitar lessons falls on Wednesday & Thursdays. Sad me. Anyway, its not like I won't be able to see them again..

Anyway, guitar lessons ended, and I decided to hang out in the hall with Jasmine & Kelvin for the time being. We did lots of fun stuff, and Jasmine was recording all the nonsense me and Kelvin were doing on her laptop. I'll post some videos IF I get them from her.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, someone's birthday is coming up. And I've decided to do something for her. Which I did. I bought her a really nice 'thing.' And I wrote a MINI song for her. I won't blah it here, because I don't wanna spoil it. So yeah, I did ALOT of planning and such. However, things didn't go out so well for me.

I did try to 'jump-start' my plan earlier today. I tried to ask her for her.. blah blah blah. Apparently it failed epic'ly. I'm not trying to say that she's unappreciative or anything. Maybe I planned wrongly, or.. I did something wrong or whatever. Currently, my plan failed, and it seems that I won't be giving her the present. I'm pretty torn up. But who cares?

I tried to cheer myself at the PTC. Which obviously, did a great job. I'm sorry if I shun'ed anyone aside today at PTC. And yeah, all I did at the PTC today was play the guitar. It seems like thats the only thing that kept me from losing it.

Yes, I know. It's not a big deal. But to me, it is. And yes I know, your birthday is like.. ages from now. I don't know, I just feel.. like crap. Trust me, it isn't your fault. I just posting what I feel inside. Don't get me wrong, please.

Anyways, happy birthday.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Putting that aside, tomoro's FRIDAY! I can't wait to re-meet my long lost friends. Maybe I can ask them for advice or something. That's probably the only thing I'm looking forward to right now. Bah, WTF is wrong with me? I sound like a f*cking crybaby. Damn it! WAKE UP STEIN YAN.

You guys must be wondering why I've not been writing any entries or whatnot right? Well, it's not that I don't wanna blog.. Its just that I have nothing to blog. Yeah, I've not been going out for some time now.. Well, not until tomoro. I have guitar lessons. :|

To Mervin,

To ZX,

I HATE HAIRCUTS.
Jun 14, 2009
I hate haircuts!

Yeah, I went for my haircut today. Now I look like a d!ckhead. The guy totally trimmed my fringe right off. I would'nt blame him though, cause I kept asking him to cut shorter and shorter.. till it was totally gone. Oh well. At least I can play pool now, I don't have to push my fringe aside just to do a normal shot. lmao.

Didn't do much at home, watched abit of TV here and there. And no, I didn't touch my PS3 today. Amazing huh?

Shoutout to Sun: Really sorry I could'nt attend your cousin's wedding. Send my regards to them yeah?

Btw, I saw this guy on Youtube.com named as Andy Mckee. He's a professional 'fingerstyle' guitarist. What I mean is, he doesn't believe in picks nor electrics. He used a specially modified baritone guitar to produce sounds that can't be really produced from a normal acoustic guitar.

Here's him playing one of my favourite songs: the Art of Motion.



Since I'm so inspired by him, I've decided to learn a song from him. It IS a hard, and WILL be my goal for the month.

The song is called: For my Father. Here's how its supposed to sound.



I'm already done with the intro. All's left is the main riff and chorus! BAH, wish me luck.

First a sorethroat, now its a flu. Whats next? H1N1?
Jun 13, 2009
First a sorethroat, now its a flu. DAMMIT people, Strepsils don't help for nuts.

Okay, today, officially, i'm sick. I'm down with a MAJOR flu. And everytime I drink water / a drink, I get something stuck in my throat. Then i'll have to do a really loud *AHHHEEEEMMM* to clear it. lmao. Its kinda fun, cause I sound like Darth Vader sometimes. But I mean, I won't be able to sing for another few more days! DAMMIT.

Anyways, despite the fact that I was sick. I still managed to reach PTC on time for the 'Alumni meeting.'

I woke up this afternoon to a bright and sunny day. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, the clouds; looking EVER-fluffy & my nose, EVER-blocked. How great is that? The only time I get sick, is when the weather is nice. DAMMIT. Anyways, I got up, went to wash up.. and blah blah blah. I managed to clear my blocked nose with a lil' help from the "Miracle Oil." or "Fong Yew" as I like to call it. Afew moments later, I started sneezing like a dog who just took a wiff at pepper. (Correct my sentence if it's wrong.) Anyways, I tried taking some Panadol, but it didn't work. So me, being frustrated, ignored about my flu problem.

Instead, I went over to my PS3 for some help. I turned it on, and played MGS4 till about.. 6.15pm? Then I went to bathe. I managed to reach the PTC @ 7.15pm. Not too bad. When I went into the PTC, I saw almost everyone holding a piece of pizza. THAT, made me hungry. I managed to grab about.. 3 slices? before the meeting started.

The meeting was okay, I shall not blah about it here. Its some confidential stuff. ;)

So we slacked @ the PTC for the time being. I went straight into the room opposite of the office, to grab my favourite guitar; Big Ben. That thing never grows old. Kelvin, YX, Mervin & ZX was already in the room doing some nonsense in which I didn't care. I just continued playing Big Ben. Then, when YX & Kelvin left the room.. ZX suggested to do a shortfilm about Pokemon on the whiteboard.

It was kinda funny. My character's name was: Ash Doodsomething. While Mervin named his character: Gary Tortellini. We didn't want ZX to feel left out, so we created a character / thing for him. His character was a Bellsprout named: DUSTSSZZ. LMAO. I know I know, we're already 17 years old.. and we're still talking about Pokemon. But I mean, Pokemon is the new 'in' right now, issit not? Anyway, Mervin managed to take afew photos of our CRAPPY drawings. I'll try uploading the peektures as soon as I get it from him.

The story ended when I drew a Charmander while Merv drew a Magneton that looked like it's just been through a war. WILL UPLOAD PEEKTURES.

Anyways, me, Mervin & Kelvin, boarded the Bus 17. And boy, was it EMPTY. I think we 3 were the only ones in the bus. Excluding the bus driver of course. We decided to stop at Downtown East, seeing as I was REALLY thirsty. I bought a bottle of Lychee Tea @ $1.95. We then walked towards my block to meet ZX. When we did, I realised that ZX was riding on Merv's electric motorbike. So I decided to take it for a spin, with Mervin sitting at the back. BOY WAS IT FUN. That thing can really RIDE. Thanks for letting me sit on it Merv. :D Appreciate it.

Now, I'm sitting on my computer chair, sneezing into a tissue every 5 mins. (Okay, exaggerating much?) This is NOT my day. I'm going to bed early.

Tonight will be the night that I'll fall for you.

Obsession?
Jun 12, 2009
It's like a dream I can't wake up from.

Guitar starts at 2 today. And I managed to reach PTC at 2.34pm.

Shoutout to CC; REALLY SORRY I was late. I hope I didn't cause much trouble today. Sorry again.

Yeah well, CC didn't really nag / scold me or anything, but I can tell that he was pissed. When I arrived, Kelvin & CC was already having a lesson with the sec2's. So I went in quietly, and sat at the back of the class. Worried that CC might just burst any moment. Surprisingly he didn't. Anyways, guitar class was a breeze today. The students today were EVER-attentive, and was a real joy to teach. Esp. Duriel. (I hoped I spelt your name correctly.) Dood, you should learn to smile more. You scare me sometimes. o.o

Basically I was in a teaching frenzy today. Kelvin, CC & me were teaching for.. iunno.. from 2 to.. 5? (Please correct me if iam wrong.) Surprisingly I wasn't tired at all. I was just happy to see that the sec2's were enjoying themselves. Oh, and there was a SPECIAL appearance today; NICK! Boy, i've not seen him for AGES. Well, its good to see that he's doing well now. (& his hair..)

Anyways, after classes, I learnt from Nick saying that Merv & ZX wants to play pool @ E!Hub. Seeing as I had not enough money with me, I decided to back out. But after Nick's pestering and begging, I decided to go and watch them play.

After we said our goodbyes to CC & Jason, Felicia, Jenny, Nick, Kelvin & myself, waited at the busstop for bus 17. Which took FOREVER. So me, being bored, whipped out my PSP and started listening to songs. Then, I was completely oblivious to what had happened around me. I was like in my own world. I can still remember Felicia & Cassandra calling me emo. WHICH ISN'T TRUE.

When we arrived @ E!Hub, we went straight to the coffeeshop for dinner. I ordered a Curry Chicken Cutlet Rice @ $5. I didn't really enjoy it, and the curry looked like snot. Oh well, its Jap~ (No offence.) Shortly after, Mervin arrived with his EVER-faithful cuestick. After the meal, we went to Cheers to get a couple of drinks and waited for ZX @ the same time. When he arrived, we continued our journey towards the pool centre.

Although I said that I didn't have money, Merv & the rest allowed me to play afew rounds. Which is really thoughtful of them. The total sum of the game was; $27.90.

Shoutout to Merv, Nick, ZX & Kelvin; Thanks for letting me play, even though I was broke. I had fun. :D Also, thanks ZX for training my Pokemon. LOL! && losing my analog stick.

Okay, this point onwards is about me being weird. IGNORE AGAIN~

I remembered the time I sent her the song; Tonight by FM Static.
I was afraid that she didn't like it.
Surprisingly, she did.
Today, when I was listening to my PSP's songs.
The song; Tonight, played.
Usually for me, I would just take it as a song.
But today was different.
When it played, it got me thinking of her again.
I remembered the time when she got her webcam.
I remembered the time when she played me the song; River Flows in You by Yiruma.
I remembered the time when she said that she was applying lotion (or some cream).. lmao!
I remembered the time when her pet dog, John, bit her on her hand.
I remembered the time when she celebrated her bestfriend's birthday.
I remembered the time when she was having troubles telling her mum that she was sick with modelling.
I remembered the time I confessed to her.
I remembered that it was during her O' levels. (Sorry if I made you lose focus.)
I remembered the time when you wrote those poems.
It made me laugh, yet, it managed to make me sad.
I know, this is the second time posting this crap.
& I'm sorry if I sound like a friggin' stalker.
I'm not being obsessive too.
But I mean, I miss her.
Dammit, I sound pathetic.
I remembered a friend telling me to tell her how I really feel.
But I bet she knows.
She's clever enough to know that I'm referring to her.
Boy, was I stupid. To let such a person go.
Regret, f*ck, I hate that word.
But theres nothing I can do now.
I just hope shes happy.
I just hope that shes doing her best.
I just hope she didn't forgot all those things that we did together.
One thing's for sure, I'm trying to get her out of my head.
And trust me, it isn't easy.
And, every little thing I do, reminds me of her. Doesn't help one single bit.
F*ck this, I want her back.
But at the same time, I'm telling myself not to.
I'm bloody confused.

Yeah, I know about the text colour. But I'm trying my best not to let my viewers see it. This problem is about me, myself & I. Bah, I'am not posting this nonsense to get attention or anything. I just wanna get this off ma' chest. It's been bugging me ever since the time I stopped talking to her. Though, it DID help when I posted it down on my entry. But, I still miss her.

SORETHROAT SEASONS ARE HERE.
Jun 11, 2009
Unnecessary wastage of brain cells. lmao.

Okay, issit like a sorethroat season or something? It seems that almost everyone has a sorethroat. I DO hope its not the cause of H1N1. *CHOI CHOI.* Anyways, drink lots of water people! AND STAY OFF CHOCOLATES. Strepsils might help, but it doesn't for me.. Soo, I just drown myself with heaps of warm water. Now, THAT seems to work. The sorethroat seems to be getting better. And by tomoro, it should be completely gone.

Shoutout to Cheryl; Thanks for offering the Strepsils thingie. I WANNA THE ORANGE FLAVOUR. If there is. o.o Thanks for your concern too, but don't worry. I'll be fine. :D

TODAY~

I woke up kinda early today, seeing as I slept at 3 yesternight? Anyways, the first thing that came to my mind was.. PS3! So I immediately went for the controller, and set up'ed the PS3. Sooner or later, I was racing down tracks in Need for Speed; Prostreet. Until finally, my mum awoke to tell me to off it. So me, being a goody goody boy, obeyed. Instead, I went into my room, turned on the computer and played Dragonica till it was about.. 12 plus? So I went to bathe, got dressed, ate lunch. Then I was on my way to PTC.

When I arrived, PTC looked like a ghost town. Everyone was in the rooms, and they were doing their own stuff. Not a pretty sight. Anyways, I went straight into the hall. (Since everyone was in it.) And I found out that I was interrupting Kelvin's guitar class. And they were playing 'Anything' by the Calling. Not a bad of a song. So I decided to watch them. After about.. 30mins? Kelvin started teaching them about tuning a guitar without a tuner. It took REALLY long.. So i'll just skip the part.

When the sec 3's are done. Then came the sec 2's. They were still stuck at the EVER-boring song; Micheal Rows the Boat. Its a simple song that all beginners in PTC are required to learn. So anyways, Kelvin carried on teaching, while I, being such a good friend, helped him. Along with Ben & Gabriel. After Kelvin's guitar class.. Some of the sec 2 students decided to stay back for some remedial lessons hosted by me. I thought them some advanced chords which SHOULD shut them up for the time being. LOL. Don't get me wrong, they were really enjoyable to teach. And they learnt pretty fast.

Shoutout to the sec2's who stayed back; PRACTICE, and remember. E, Asus2, B, C#! :D

After the guitar lessons, me and Kelvin decided to go down to E!Hub to meet Mervin for a game of pool. When we arrived, we noticed that Mervin wasn't here yet. So we decided to carry on without him. Soon after, he arrived carrying a 'bag' that held his EVER-gorgeous WHITE cue. DAMN was it amazingly smooth. LMAO. Kelvin left at around.. 8 plus? Leaving me and Mervin. So we played a couple of rounds. 8,9 & 10 ball. Whatever ball. In the end, the total sum is.. 17.50?

After playing, me & Merv decided to go and EAT. At first, our initial plans were to go to the nearest coffeeshop. But unfortunately, almost all the shops there we closed. So we settled on Burger King. I ordered some Swiss Mushroom meal while Merv ordered some burger with bacon in it. It seems appetising enough, though, Merv was having trouble with the bacon. He said it was too hard. LMAO.

Anyways, other than the burger, drink, fries, tomato sauce & whatever. I noticed he ordered a appetizer. Which looked like.. wrinkled fingers? There was 4 of them, and Merv seperated 2 for him and 2 for me to share. It was pretty good. So me, being unknown to what it was called decided to ask him. Heres how the conversation went.

Steiny: Eh, this is good, what's this?

Merv: Uh.. Chicken?

Steiny: *Laughed* Uhhhh... What's it called la. *Still laughing*

Merv: Uhhh.. I don't know what the chicken is called.

Steiny: *Stared blankly for a moment..* LOOOOLLLL.

Yeah, we started laughing like mad people. Although it was lame.. It was BLOODY funny. It was partly my fault though, I didn't phrase it right.

ANYWAYS, after dinner, we walked the usual way back, talked about MGS4 and some other nonsense.

Shoutout to Merv; Sorry if I was being too draggy. I just can't get enough of that game. LMAO.

I miss her.

Sorethroats suck.
Jun 9, 2009
When you're hungry, eat. When you're tired, sleep. When you have a sorethroat, eat chocolates!

It's amazing how a sorethroat can just come like that. In the morning, I was feeling like a million dollars. Only after I bathed and brushed my teeth, then I felt a 'itchiness' in my throat. Worried, I started gulping down cold water. Only to make it WORSE. Anyways, I can't sing right now. Which makes me kinda.. sad? I can't entertain myself in the bathroom anymore! LOL.

TODAY~

I didn't do anything much today. Though, I was supposed to go to Mervin's crib today. Unfortunately, the stupid sorethroat made me think otherwise. So I decided to stay at home. Played my PS3 abit, played Dragonica too. (LEVEL 7 FTW.) Watched abit of HBO.

Oh well, at least I managed to complete the game: MGS4. I gotta say: That game, is AMAZING. It actually made me tear. Currently, I'm playing it AGAIN at a harder difficulty. What can I say? I'm addicted.

Anyways, here's a couple of peektures of my PS3. Like I promised in my previous post. Enjoy, and warning, don't drool. :D

It's surprisingly big. And uber outstanding. Mainly cuz' its white?

:)..
Metal Gear Solid 4: Sons of the Patriots. EPIC GAME.
Lol, I took this @ the shop when they were checking the PS3 for me. He took it out of the box and plced it on the main counter. Switched on the TV and tested it out when EVERYONE was waiting. You can imagine how embarressed I was.

Yeah well, SONY ROCKS. Many thanks again to Merv & ZX for following me ALL the way to Far East to get it. Also, THANK YOU for sharing money to get MGS4. Without you guys, I would'nt be even playing the game. Thanks again.

Another shoutout to Merv; REALLY sorry I could'nt come to your place today. I'll come tomoro yeah? Take care, and SUCK ON STREPSILS. It helps, kinda.

I miss her.

Sony Playstation 3. A marvel of invention.
Jun 7, 2009
Sony Playstation 3, truly, a marvel of invention.

OMFG, I've not blogged for 3 days! VERY VERY VERY VERY.. (Well you get the point.) SORRY.

Anyways, first off. I would like to thank Merv & ZX for accompanying me down to Far East SHOPPING CENTRE to get the PS3. I know you guys were starving your ass off. So I give you my thanks.

And yes, I finally & officially got my PS3. I shall not brag about it. But, i'll try to post peektures and such. Don't get me wrong, its AMAZING. AND MSG4 ROCKS!

About today~
It wasn't a date!

Cheryl organized an outing for us crew & cast for 'Red String' today. Turns out, only me, Fuad, Janice, Cheryl and Evan (Cheryl's friend.) came down. So we decided to just carry on with the outing. First stop we went to was KFC. Since Fuad said he was "WHOA, DAMN HUNGRY LA." hungry. We found a place, sat down and the gang went to order, except me. Oh, don't worry, I'm not on a diet or anything, I already ate at home. Anyways, we had a long talk. I got to know Evan more. Played around.. Talked more. And finally, I recieved a call from Agi saying that he was coming down to meet us. I conveniently told him that we were at KFC.

After which, Cheryl or whoever, said that they wanted to go to the Esplanade. Seeing as I've not been to the Esplanade. I agreed. And we're on our way. When we reached the Esplanade, to me, it didn't look like the Esplanade at all, but I finally realised that we were on the roof or something. So we found a corner to sit, and we played Uno till Agi came. And we played, and played, and played.. Till the sky looked like as though it was about to rain. So we stopped, and decided to head to the library to continue our game.

Instead of continue'ing the game, we were browsing the books of the library. I found some of the books there interesting because it was mainly about arts & music. I went straight to the music section, and I found some guitar tabs from alot of bands like: Simple Plan, Maroon 5, Lifehouse, Chris Daughtry, Good Charlotte & many more. You can say that I was stuck to the books like glue. After that, we decided to leave the library and head to the Pool Centre @ Marina.. something? When we arrived, I realised that 1 hour = $12. WHAT THE F*CK, are they friggin' kidding? Anyways, we left, and went to the nearby bowling alley, where we decided to play a round of bowling.

Note to self, NEVER bowl @ Marina Square. The lanes there suck! I can't even screw the ball at all. I mean, of course, I partially blame my skills. But I mean, CAN'T THEY AT LEAST WAX THE LANES? Well, we had fun. And in the end, Evan was the winner. BOO HOO. :D

After bowling, we decided to head down to Suntec City for dinner. On the way there, Janice said that she wanted to go off. So we said our goodbyes and we were on our way again. The journey to Suntec City was LOOOOOOONG. But at least it was all covered, and I enjoyed the air-con there. And finally, we arrived @ the Kopitiam of Suntec City. The name of the Kopitiam wasn't Kopitiam, I actually forgot the name. ANYWAY, we arrived, found a place, and sat. I pondered about what to eat. And finally I settled on a Claypot Chicken Rice @ $4.30. It was kinda good. Although, I have to comment on the plate of Chicken Rice Cheryl ordered. The triangular-shaped mountain of rice was ADORABLE. Hope you enjoyed your meal as much as I did.

After the meal, we took another LOOOOOONG walk to City Hall MRT station. I stopped halfway to buy myself an F&N Orange @ $1.70. Honestly, this was my first time actually buying a gassy drink, since I don't really like them. Anyways, drinks taste better when you're thirsty. We said our goodbyes and me, Cheryl & Evan waited for the MRT. We talked alot on the MRT, and Evan was laughing like a mad girl. Anyways, I stopped at my stop, and went back home.

Some peektures,









NOTE: The pictures shown were taken/grabbed from EVAN's/CHERYL's phone. I was just plain lazy to upload from my phone. Don't get the wrong idea.

Overall, I had fun today.

Thanks:
- Cheryl, for organizing the event.
- Evan: For coming.
- Janice: For coming.
- Fuad: For lending me your camera and suggesting where to go and such.
- Agi: For coming.

Exams, exams, EXAMS.
Jun 3, 2009
The outcome of the student reflects on the teacher.

That's one down. One more to go. Today's paper was kinda hard. Basically cause I spent my whole time the night before studying the WRONG module. WTF right? Well, anyway, I hope at least I got a 20/30. No point worrying about it now, since its already over.

I GOT BACK MY RESULTS FOR THE COFFEETABLE BOOK. Even though, it looked like crap, the cutting was horrid, and the pasting was just.. well.. NOT like its been pasted. I was given an 'A'! Happy me. Mr Dominic actually went from the bottom up, meaning from Fs to As. So I was like.. panicking. Anyway, I was definitely happy.

Heres some of my work. And yeah, all pictures, both original and edited, was done by me. And the help of my friends of course.






On to VP1. After the exam, Mr Nick & Boi asked us to stay back after our exams for screening. Screening basically means to review the films. So we spent like.. 5 hours doing so? It was fun though, to see your other classmate's work.

Nothing much happened today. Cept' it was amazingly cold in the morning. Kinda surprised me at first.

Still can't get her out of my mind.

Happy Anniversary PTC.
Jun 1, 2009
When you love something, set it free. If it comes back, its yours. If it doesn't, it never was.

YESTERDAY is the 10th anniversary of PTC! We ate food, partied, talked alot of nonsense & met alot of new friends. However, today is also the day when Sister Maria leaves. It's a sad thing, and we'll all miss her. But, if thats what she wants to do, then we can't stop her. We all want her to be happy. Right? Yeah well, anyways, we had alot of performances and movies to watch. Here are some of the peektures. :p

Yeah, as you can see, we had alot of fun. Also, I took solo peektures with some of my bestest friends. Here they are;

Kelvin. :D
Jasmine.
Mervin. :D
Zhong Xin, looking @ his best.
Francis, our goodie junior.
Us, NOT looking at our best. We were like.. sweating like mad when we took this photo.

Anyways, after the party, Me, Jasmine, Mervin & Kelvin went over to E!Hub to play afew rounds of Pool. We had alot of fun there, and in total it costed about.. $24 dollars? Bah, doesn't matter, we had fun.

P.S. Do NOT grab the photos from my blog. I'm not trying to be selfish or anything, but, if you do grab it. The quality of the pictures won't be nice. So, if you want the good quality photos, ask me from MSN or grab from my Facebook. Also, this happened YESTERDAY. I was too tired to blog. So I did it today. :D
