Nothing really special today, other than the fact that i actually went out to buy a present for someone with JC. Met JC at about 3.30 at the MRT station, and then off we go. Walked around TM and century^2 in search for the right present for this special someone. We thought of maybe buying something that ordinary people wouldn want to buy. we were presented with many choices, and in the end, we decided to buy this:



a pair of maracas and a 3D apple puzzle thingy!

i also bought this for myself:



an ocarina (tan tan tan taaaaaan! imagine the zelda get-the-item-from-chest song)

stumbled upon this while searching for the gift for this special person, and its $5

so, if u think ur birthday is coming soon, then u might just walk away with these fabulous prices! hm, yea man. pray hard that the present is for u hahaha.

went out today. went to sentosa today with JC today. Met paul vin and grace at sentosa today. grace had the beach volleyball competition thing so i figured out that maybe ill just go support her with JC and paul vin today. Was raining today so wasn really a good day today. many unexpected things happened today too, like the meeting of a person we never thought of meeting and all that. haha, went there, and felt out of place because the whole competition was sponsered by Ripcurl, and then every one there was wearing this Ripcurl singlet which was $20. went there, watched grace played the thing, walk around, play psp, and after the whole thing ended, we all went for dinner at subway. overall, it was a fun day today. hhhaa



its all about goals today



ok, many of you may have heard of this, but yea, im going back to thailand to study for a while before i go somewhere else, and to actually do that, ill have to take the SAT test, i have no clue of what it is, where can i take the test and all that shit. i heard theres a certain time ill have to register, and i heard its about now, around this time of the year. so help me out if u noe anything.

Teacher's day today, and boy was it stupid. hhhaha, actually its not, but yea, kinda boring, after it all ended, didn go back primary school, and went to eat seoul garden again WTH, and came home. shitty day today.





its all about art today. enjoy

ok, so this is what i got, from good to bad:

Emaths : A2
Chemistry : A2
Physics : A2
Amaths : B3
Art : B4
English : B4
Chinese : C6
COMBINED HUMANS!!! : D7

L1R4 : 13
L1R5 : 20

reflection:
1. slight improvement from midyear
2. combined humans really pull me down
3. im sure if my combined humans can get like, maybe B3, i will reach my target of 8 (calculated = 10)

What i do now?:
1. really practise combined humans skills, and memorise more facts
2. do more papers on physics

What will actually happen:
1. ART, Emaths, Chem, Physics, Amath, A1 (yes its possible, i mean, i WILL make it possible. ok rephrase, it will happen)
2. combined humans and english, B3

ok, i can do it! ok? yes i can. work hard for O levels

ok, i have gotten back some of my exam scripts, marked, and i must say im impressed. i get kinda good grades even though i didn really study for the whole examination this time round. i wanna see how prepared i was, see, yea. i get A2 for boths chem and physics, B3 for Amaths, and sadly, D7 for comebined humans. ok, i noe tats bad, but combined humans is not about calculations, its about memorising notes and using 'skills' to answer the questions. so i guess ill be study more on comebined humans already, yea, ok bb.

Today is the last day of exams, and the paper for the day is........art. Since not a lot of my friends took art like me, the small puny art class people and i were the only group of sec 4s who came to school today! everyone from every level gave us the 'what the hell is wrong with them' look and just for today, i feel so special. hahhaha. yea. the art paper was 3 hours long, and i had one hell of a time sitting there and doing nothing after i finished doing the whole damn thing cos i have more or less came prepared for today. after that, do some art, come back home, go out it sakae with peter, and thats it. bb.

I bought a new harmonica! ahhahaha! i was using the cheap small diatonic harmonica for the past 6 months, and now, i have upgraded myself to a new chromatic one! yea man. there is a lot of difference between the 2 harmonicas: the old one i was using is small and easy to play, but the new one im about to familiarise myself with is really BIG! like about 1.5 times longer, 1.5 times thicker, and heavier. the holes are also further apart and this made it even harder for me to get a clear sound. yea. guess ill just have to practise more or something. thats it, bb

If you have been going to my picasa photo gallery for school event pics, you will probably find out that i havent been updating for quite some time already. so here is what im going to do:

1a). since theres no school event photos for me to upload,
b). i will be uploading my own pic, 1 for each day

i noe it sound stupid, but i guess i cant just let my picasa web gallery just rot there, yea, ok, bb

I havent been updating the website for quite some time, and a lot of things happened! but i guess ill be telling u all that on the next post.







enjoy the vids. some of these are just plain dumb, but some are unbelieveable, and shouldn be believed (yea, the arnold one, a joke could be so real)

THE INTERNET IS REALLY BAD TODAY!!!

enjoy this pac-man fun

The most interesting website i have ever seen so far: the periodic table website, with vidoes of each element in action!

Remember i bought a gunpla model during national day a few weeks ago? Okay maybe you dont, but nevermind. Up until now, i still havent finish fixing it, cos i want to take my time you know: slowly paint it, sand it, over the past few weeks. So last night, i decided to actually fix it! haha! Fixed the legs and the hips last night, and then the body, head and arms just now. Havent fix the wings yet, but im sure the end result's gonna be cool. I always have this contradicting emotions when i was fixing the gunpla. I always think that 'OH SHIT! WHEN IS THIS INKING AND SANDING GONNA END!? OH NO', but then again, i just imagine how the product is going to look like. Its like i feel like not fixing the gunpla anymore, but still feel like finishing it fast at the same time. So yea, hope i complete it soon. thats all, bb

And here we go again!! My com has been experiencing 'automatical disconnecting of internet'!!! Its like i just play like usual, and then BOOM! disconnect, again and again. And i was like 'oh shit! now, no more internet connection! how could this get any better' So, for this time round, i asked my cousin to actually try to solve the problem, and to my dismay, he just said 'i cant solve it'. It has been a while now that i spotted a trend in him: if he stumble upon a problem, he will just ask me 'hey sarun, how to do this and that?'. of cos, i will just tell him the way, but when i dont really no the answer, he will just sit there, do nothing, and wait for answers to come to him, and thats very annoying! He likes to make excuses and all that shit. So i told him, 'hey peter, so are you trying to say that you cant solve the problem, and then ur gonna just let it be? It has always been me who solves the problem around here. So now we cant use the internet, and you trying to say that you dont even to put in the effort to find any solutions to this?' I didn lecture him about the excuses part, but then yea, he just sat there, quiet. To me, making excuses is some of the things i cant tolerate (and yes, try my very best not to make excuses at most of the time), and peter, if ur reading this damn blog entry, i just wanna tell you, that im so damn pissed with you right now, for not solving ur own problems urself at times, and always come to me. Go figure out ur own problems! theres the internet, and all that shit, and then you didn even want to make the effort to work out all these problems of urs. So peter, if ur reading this, i suggest u change urself for the better, and dont talk to me about this blog entry at home too, got it? im so damn pissed with u today, for the first time

nice one

hey, and do watch the 'the best commercial ever' one affter u finish the whole thing, you know when you finish watching one video, and then they will link to you some of the related videos? yea, there, 'best commercial ever'

For the past few days, i have been trying ot teach my friends thai. Its really hard, cos thai is kinda like a tonal language, if you know what im saying. Its like saying this word 'kee ma', if u say it with the correct tone, it means to ride a horse, but if you say it wrongly, it means dog shit, yea, im serious. SO as i tried my very best to tell my this friend that sit beside me in class to say 'hup paak', which means to shut up, he say it such a way that if a thai guy tries to talk to him, and then my friend say hup paak, the thai guy wouldn even understand what in the blue hell my friend is talking about. I instructed him closely, saying that u have to keep ur tone low and then keep the tone of both two sounds the same, in the end, he succeeded, yea, haha. Its really difficult for a person who uses only english and malay in his daily life to say such a word with such tonal extremity. Great success. bb

It has been for quite some time now that Peter, my cousin, has been using the com for hours and hours, just for his entertainment purposes. He has been 'onning the bot' for his online game so that he can turbo boost his levels. If you dont know what im talking about at the line before, 'onning the bot' simply means that my cousin use a program to help him play the game, so that he can level up fast without playing the game himself, cos its a tiring process. I know onning the bot defeats the whole purpose of playing the game, but in some certain cases, its just more fun. Just imagine u have to train this character by one level, and it takes like about 10-20 hours to level up, especially when ur high level, wouldn it be better if someone actually helps you to do that painstaking task? of course right. yea. so, i guess ill have to bear with it for quite a while. hm. bb

I hate virtual reality.

I like it being more tangible

Didn go out today, even though theres chemistry tuition for me to go to. Figured out that it wouldn hurt skipping a session of 2-hour-lecture by the tutor, because i was having a minor headache, but who knows, it may become a major one afterwards. To compensate the sacrifice i made, i told myself, that ill be doing the pile of A-Maths E-Maths papers my teacher gave me. So far, i have done at least 3 papers for today, great success. It will be just another ordinary day for me. so yea, bb

It was at about 8 o'clock when i was playing DMC 4 on my com. Song lin the China guy came barging into my room to inform me that 'hey, the beijing olympics starting ceremony is beginning!'. So i quickly rushed into my living room and switch on my TV to see the spectacle that awaits me. True enough, as i watched the show, the lighting effects and the coordination of the performers in the field left me speechless. Okay, i dont wanna elaborate on that cos there was many cool things. The meaning behind their performance also intrigued me, like how they actually tell us about China's history through painting the giant canvas thing, i really enjoy how they use many people from 'different generations' to draw on the same canvas, depicting the history of China in the making. So yea, after there was the parade thingy from the countries participating in the olympic games, and i waited to see how Thailand actually makes its appearance. After waiting for 104 countries to no avail, they say theres gonna be about 80+ countries more......Then i just told myself, 'what the hell', 'im gonna go to sleep waiting for all this', and then actually, i did. Woke up again when the ceremony was about to end. i watched the legendary athlet flew into the sky and then lighted the giant torch thing. ahaha. yea.

It was a long time ago when i suggested that 'hey, lets go buy some gundams sometimes' to my friends. They would all agree, but theres always somebody who is not free to go becos they have their own thing to do. So finally, theres the Singapores national day celebration and at school today, and we all decided that after the whole damn thing ends, we'll go buy the toys. The celebration ended at 1030 am, and sideburn chong, JC, delyla (donno how to spell ur name), moses and I went to the shop in bugis. So, we walked, talked, ate, browsed, bought, for 3 hours, and then came to my house to assemble the models. Took us the whole day till 7 PM to actually finish only 2 of the 4 models bought! With minimal colouring and inking. hahaha, what a day.

Finally, I have acquired the exotic 'Devil may cry 4' PC version!!!! Cool graphics!! I can play it, even if i dont have a PS3! However, it is sad to say that my coms processor is not fast enough (1.83 Ghz). The game was kinda laggy but i guess i can cope with it. Ran the game, played it a little when i suddenly stumble upon the tutorial part where you will have to dodge some hot lead from Dante. They ask me to press the RB button sideways, and then i was like, 'WTH?!', my controller is of those n00b kind and cant press any button in such a manner. So i guess ill be buying a dualshock 3 controller....wonder how much its gonna cost....

O levels approaching, and that means i will have to submit my art coursework pretty soon now. And you know what, i still got quite a long way to finish it! OH SHITE! What do i do!? Having that cognition (knowledge) in mind, i decided to stick around after school today to do some art. Soon enough, it was already 6 pm when i realise that wow, tats really late, time really flew by, wasted, because of art......ok yea tats all

Had english paper 1 and 2 today, and i must say, those papers were tough nuts to crack. ahhaha, nuts, to crack, hahah. The paper was SO crazy, i dont want to elaborate on it anymore. Right after the papers, i went for the chem remedial class, followed by a little visit to the gundam shop in century square. JC and sideburn chong accompanied me there cos we wanted to buy JC his belated birthday present. The gundam models are definitely not as cheap as it sounds, so a after a brief glance on the choices we are presented with, we all spent a total of a hundred dollars to buy 3 of these toys, 1 for sideburn, 2 for JC. The money used to buy the models were from contributions made by our classmates for JC, so yea, thanks classmates. It was just 4 pm when we finished buying all the stuff we needed, so we decided to go to sarun's place to make the models (sarun = me).took as a hell of a time to finish the whole thing, and by the time the finishing touch was 'touched' it was already 7. WOOO, really tiring, but it was good, cos we finished 2 of the gundams, yea. ok

Today marks the beginning of the prelims. Social Studies paper today and im happy to say that it was actually quite do-able. Even though i actually threw away 12 marks already because of lack of time, but still, who noes, i may get good grades. After the test ,JC, sideburn chong, malay guy (not trying to be racist here), moses and i went to see some gundams in the shop in century square. Was quite disappointed because i thought there should be some discounts for the upcoming national day or smth. But yea anyhu, it was a good day today. so yea. see u

Sometimes, i find myself running out of words, things to talk about, and all that. I find myself wondering what i will do during these circumstances. So finally, i have figured it out.

Just post a pic.



This one is taken by me.

enjoy

Watched 'dark knight' with peter and song ling ' the china guy' today. Was really entertaining. I really like how they actually develope some of the characters through out the story, especially 'two face'. I remember watching 'batman begins' in 2005 and still recall how i actually didn like the movie that much. Its like they change the batman's 'legacy' or smth, like how they change the face of the bat mobile. talking about old memories, i still rmb watching the really old batman series where batman and robin were really fat and ran around catching the bad guys. still remember its theme song till this very day. i remember having 'batman forever' and 'batman and robin' fridge magnets in my house when i was about 6 - 7 years old too! haha. Guess im gonna watch the whole batman collection all over again. k, so see u around.
