21 Signs from the Universe
Our Hotel is 5* if I didn't remember wrongly Now I'm back in Town. Back from a backbreaking ride on a Jetstar plane. It can never get any worse, my first try on this airline and it could be my very last attempt. Well to hell with it, gotta share some of the 100+ pics I took while I was there with my e71. Not in order! Its more like from the last day backwards to the first :/ Don't have all the pictures yet, will get it from the guys soon..
Very nice Luminous Yellow! :D
Corona Extra Theme, I don't see the lil monster's claw though :/

Been listening to this and realised its by Eiffel 65. Really strikes a chord now doesn't it?
Eiffel 65 - Too Much Of Heaven (Official Video with subtitles)
Too much of heaven, can bring you underground. Heaven, can always turn around. Too much of heaven, a life and soul hell bound. Heaven, the killer makes no sound.

Just a click and you're gone
Leaving SG this Weekend with some mates to Thailand. Wonder what I can do there since its a yearly visit, its getting boring already perhaps?
Yes I know I'm ageing, everybody is, going to turn 21 and then waste precious time in the National Service then turn 23 or 24(probably) when I finally am released?
WBL '09 just ended some time back, didn't manage to complete the Gold Medal Collection before I officially graduate. The silver really ruined it. Well, I couldn't fight alone since its a team game right?
Things I need to do, 1) Servicing of EO 2) Steel Braided Hoses Front & Back 3) Change of Brake Pads 4) Step down to Stage 1 5) Remove Error Codes 6) Fix EO leak; probably Top Gasket. 7) WORK!

Men Drive It, Boys Dream About It
Changed quite a number of things which I have or own. All for the better hopefully. Been rather busy lately. Yes, I passed my Poly exams and FYP but sadly I didn't get the grading I was working hard for. Only a B, fullstop.
Wheelchair Basketball League is coming this Sat at United World College, 4pm -10pm. Hope I can work my way to get another gold medal and make it 3 gold medals for this sport in collection :]
Yet I'm still waiting for the dreaded letter to determine where my life will be condemned for the next few years.
My windows are fully masked Black! Upcoming dark nights to sleep through, fantastic!! Should have done this sooner!

Last Exam in NP (Applied Thermodynamics) :D
Woots! Thats the first thing I gotta say to express myself :]
Finally, the only and last exam of this Semester is finally over. Hope I pass Thermodynamics then I can leave the dreaded school once and for all. Go to do time for 1 year and 10 month then probably leave Singapore for a overseas University. Ordered another pair of spectacles from school just now. Have to make payment tomorrow and also get my claim forms signed by Mr LKC.
Everybody has to be relinked again, dang. Spent some time transferring data over and editing sizes. Looking good, do feedback if you encounter any problems. Looking for imeem jukebox to place at the side for music soon.

New Blogskin
Been thinking about a new blogskin and remembered one of my previous one looked like this, still fancied it although RED is not my favourite colour lol. The feel is nice .
Lemme see what I can find, a new Hellsing Script doesn't seem to be working :/

- A show I suddenly was interested in after seeing my Mother and Sister starting at, shown in the 32" LCD in the hall. Its currently showing on Ch8 during at night. My Sister went to loan the whole series and I "chiong-ed" viewing the show with my Mother till 4am yesterday :]
The show somehow reminded me of me and A then, always quarelling because it seems I'm always criticizing her and condemning her mates. I guess I am not very good with my words. Throughout the show, I was thinking of my own "show" then. Anyway, Heart of Greed is a MUST WATCH! Definitely better than Local Dramas or even those cheapo Taiwan shows.
Been quite happy recently that Mother has been at home dishing up food for me :] Baked beans with minced meat and luncheon meat. Haven't had this in years. Mother keeps telling me when I was very young and she cooked that, I'd plead with her to cook it for me daily. I LOVE HOME COOKED FOOD!
She made my favourite Fried Rice this morning even though we watched the DVDs till 4am+. I slept till it was almost time for Soccer at the cage ; 1.30pm. Woke up to find half wok of fried rice left, had a lil because of sports later on and decided to leave the rest for myself when I come back after Soccer.
The Cage was fun, dribbled and shot around like I used to, uncontrollable! After I came home, the wok was EMPTY! :'( I was damn angry and kept wondering who the hell ate all of them and didn't leave me any. Was so pissed I took my shower and went out to Ubi to find Mother at her shop. Just had to settle for the Fried Rice which I can buy from the stalls there :/
Am thinking of a new blogskin soon.

Presentations
After FYP's final Panel comes ESD's presentation, one after another. Boring me, keeping me awake doing it. Been busy going out with the guys here and there. My left cheek hurts now and is swollen, hope its not the same like the right side because it'll just be another Wisdom tooth surgery :/ Hope it isn't and I can last till I enter army for the operation.
Have no idea what blog song should be next. Thinking of changing a blog skin also after using this for so long.
Here goes Yellow by Coldplay
Look at the stars Look how they shine for you And everything you do Yeah, they were all yellow
I came along I wrote a song for you And all the things you do And it was called yellow
So then I took my turn Oh what a thing to have done And it was all yellow
Your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful D'you know? You know I love you so You know I love you so
I swam across I jumped across for you Oh what a thing to do 'Cos you were all yellow
I drew a line I drew a line for you Oh what a thing to do And it was all yellow
And your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful D'you know? For you I bleed myself dry For you I bleed myself dry
It's true Look how they shine for you Look how they shine for you Look how they shine for you Look how they shine for you Look how they shine for you Look how they shine
Look at the stars Look how they shine for you And all the things that you do

Masking
Just came back from Teochew Porridge and also Yum Cha. Was helping Joseph to mask his bonnet matt black, cost of the material is only $12(2x$6/m). Damn, it looks good ;]
FYP ended last Friday, I was assessed together with my 8 other team members. How do you present a powerpoint with a total of 9 pax? Tough thing to do but we still have to get our way through. I hope I didn't get anything less than a "B" grade for all the effort spent on FYP.
Didn't manage to film how the vehicle motioned and how it looks like, it does look better than how the guys left it. As least I bothered to find velvet for our seat and black sticker for masking the chassis. Sighs, what a pity not to score for this project.
One day, she sent me an sms asking me what would I want her to be to me in our next life. Didn't really know what was the best answer but I hope the answer from me was good enough to appease her. She reminds me of a girl.
All the best to myself for the upcoming exam and then graduate from this Poly.

MJ's Death
Recent news is that Michael Jackson passed away recently at the age of 50(I think). Some would say he's lucky enough to live half a century till that age whilst some say he could have survived another 20 years down. Only till his death then people started scrambling to buy his albums, download it and watch/listen to it.
Why do people only remember others only when they die?
Would it be the same on me? :/
Went to Q&M Dental Clinic last night and had a checkup because
my tooth was hurting seriously for the past few days. The food I ate were actually all very much "Soupy-like" and most of the time I was slurping them because of the inability to chew. Dr Ang gave me an X-Ray scan and 40% discount due to the fact of ties with his cousin I knew.
An my Mouth looks like this with what you can see on the bottom left is my wisdom tooth is growing HORIZONTALLY, like WOW.
Yes those on the upper right are my earring and stud that you usually see me with LOL. Think this operation will set me back about 4-500 as quoted by the director himself.
Been so busy busy busy recently, tried to go for CCA trainings as much as possible and coping with other activities I have daily. Few events took place recently and it has been taxing my brains to work some calculations and outweigh the pros & cons of my choices. Guess I have to be firm about what decision I make as everything cost $$$ that normal students don't usually deal with.
Yes, FYP is drawing to an end so so SOOOooooon and the car is not completed. Sweat trickles down all of the member's face everytime LKC mentions it. Whether I fail or pass will depend on how well I can motion the vehicle. Its actually textbook to me but I'm still dissapointed about the fact I can't secure my AD grading with this simple design and product.
See the thing about you that caught my eye is the same thing that makes me change my mind kinda hard to explain but girl i'll try you need to sit down this may take a while see this girl she sorta looks just like you she even smiles just the way you do, so innocent she seemed but I was fooled I am reminded when I look at you
CHORUS: Cos, you remind me of a girl that I once knew see her face whenever I , I look at you couldnt believe all of the things she put me through this is why i just cant get with you
Thought that she was the one for me til i found out she was on her creep oh she, was sexing everyone but me this is why we could never be
CHORUS: Cos, you remind me of a girl that I once knew see her face whenever I , I look at you couldnt believe all of the things she put me through this is why i just cant get with you
You remind me of a girl that i once knew see her face whenever i, i look at you Couldnt believe all of the things she put me through this is why i just cant get with you
I know it is so unfair to you it is so unfair That i relayed her ignorance to you (ohhh ahhh) wish I knew I wish I knew how to seperate the two you remind me
School has "started" yesterday, it was all the same to us as we didn't have any holidays anyway. The chassis doesn't seem as well as I've expected though, I did tell them to machine the individual components as close as to perfection but it was quite neglected and alignment was slightly off.
Not only we couldn't produce a valid vehicle to send up to Sepang for the test run, its said that the visit which was supposed to be sponsered by school via a Coach or Budget Airlines might be called off, totally.
Still I wonder if I had made the wrong choice to choose the right project which could have given me an A+(aka AD) and also experience, recognition because of its popularity and media coverage. It could also have secured a position for any or even EVERY of us 4 members of the team in the local University.
There was a Movie outing organised by the few pips in the FYP room for viewing TRANSFORMERS but most didn't make it, flew aeroplanes or wasn't informed. End of the day, we've only 5 pax going for it. Took the day off FYP and also public transported my way down to Orchard. 188 from my place to Toh Guan, 105 to Clementi to meet Kelvin, 105 down to town and walked around till we found ourselves at The Cathay.
Transformers was good though we did miss the first 10mins of the show. William and Wilson said so because they've both watched it before and didn't mind accompanying us, and the next few times with their friends LOL.
After the show, they wanted to go home. Turned me down when I suggested going Karaoke or something since its only the few of us. Maybe we should try next Tuesday. Should have rode my bike down today :(
Realised I wasn't the kind who'd take photos to upload and blog about it that often like other bloggers do..
Am looking for a new blog song :/

Tough Luck
Been having this stream of tough luck recently. Happened twice to me, hit me left and right smack across the face. Both on the 19th of this and last month. 19th sure is an unlucky day huh. I hope nothing will go wrong next month :/
YBC just ended on Sunday, many new faces again. I'm glad I stepped down already from the Main Comm, less commitment before and during camp with additional time to sleep as when I please. I did still help out as much as I could(or would) during the programmes, games and my favourite still ; Disc Jockeying. :]
Busy lately too, thankful that Lee Khet Choon took over Heng Song Ning as my FYP's supervisor as he did aid alot in spurring the team on as well as thought me what I went wrong with being the leader. At least we're doing something now. Leaving my part-time job in the mini-mart(Cheers Ngee Ann Poly). Have yet to tender my resignation letter though. Mr Kaya did mentioned that I could be employed under the school as a helper but pay is a tad pathetic like what I got for my PT job.
What the heck, I'm already being underpaid for a year odd and enjoying the worklife in school. Seeing friends come and go, meeting new friends, free parking, near my home and flexible working hours. What more can I ask for? ;]
I need to organise my messy room arghhhhh!
I wonder what will happen to her now that she's in this state.. :(

Unwell - Matchbox Twenty
Unwell - Matchbox Twenty
All day staring at the ceiling Making friends with shadows on my wall All night hearing voices telling me That I should get some sleep Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold on Feeling like I'm headed for a breakdown And I don't know why
[Chorus]
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell I know right now you can't tell But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see A different side of me I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired I know right now you don't care But soon enough you're gonna think of me And how I used to be...me
I'm talking to myself in public Dodging glances on the train And I know, I know they've all been talking about me I can hear them whisper And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me Out of all the hours thinking Somehow I've lost my mind
[Chorus]
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell I know right now you can't tell But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see A different side of me I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired I know right now you don't care But soon enough you're gonna think of me And how I used to be
I've been talking in my sleep Pretty soon they'll come to get me Yeah, they're taking me away
[Chorus]
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell I know right now you can't tell But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see A different side of me I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired I know right now you don't care But soon enough you're gonna think of me And how I used to be
Yeah, how I used to be How I used to be Well, I'm just a little unwell How I used to be How I used to be I'm just a little unwell

Northern Expedition Continued
Bored in project room so decided to post a quote before I post my version ;]
Quoted from Winston's post : "The Curve of Petaling Jaya is a place whereby shopping and entertainment fuses into one entity. Accomodation is abundant where reservations can be made easily. The roads in are somewhat ajar to the North South highway except for the occasional overwhelming congestion. Parking is rather convenient with a flat rate of RM3 per entry that lasts you for a day.
The morning started off with a hideous 2 hour jam on the 2nd link towards the Malaysian custom despite clearing the Singaporean side at 7am. Eventually we managed to reach Petronas at 0930h and after some short communication, we embarked on this short trip. We traveled up North at a modest speed of 140km/h and occasionally reduced to a miserable crawl of 120km/h. But I saw the F&F drivers having a great time tailgating Maverick. Nothing short of being daft as I will describe. They take pains and insufferable risks to overtake only to get stuck in the same jam merely 2 cars ahead.
After getting off the NSHW at Lehburahya KL, we started to go in circles while I tried to fathom the 3D view of the Shinco GPS. Made several unwanted turns and U turns we eventually arrived at the Curve.
After arriving, Maverick and jB commenced storage preparation.
A very cautious Maverick and jB began engaging the steering lock before leaving the car.
The duo after locking up the car meticulously.
Some night scenes of The Curve. The Walt Disney styled architecture indeed reflects the popular shopping and entertainment scene in this upper class society of Malaysia.
IKEA and Courts are merely next to the hotel.
Automobile showrooms are splashed all over the place with VW, Lexus and Mercedes Benz all within very reasonable walking distance from the hotel.
They two had been certainly having a great time shopping at FOS and Adidas.
Of course not forgetting the boss of the day with his 3 brides. HEEHEEHEE... jB's decent charisma contradicts his charming aura emitted to seduce any girls from the foreign land.
jB's friends brought us all to SS2 of PJ for a night of sinful indulgement in roadside western cuisines. The diet busting feast was too delicious to forgo. Diets can commence again after we get back home.
Maverick, I had a discussion with my gf and we both mutually agreed that Crystal seems to be interested in you. Humourous, intellectual, an apparent member of the upper-class elite society in Singapore, mysterious and not looking your real age. Gentlemanly swift, footed the bill in stealth much to our astonishment.
The way back was rather discretionary. I have an appointment with my mum and sister who's returning only over the weekend before her flight back to Perth. So jB graciously asked me to move at my own pace. The trip back was swiftly accomplished in 3 hours with the final parts traveling at crawling speeds of 80km/h to preserve fuel in order to make it to the next R&R near the final toll gantry on the 2nd link. Meanwhile, jB and Maverick being in the same car apparently wandered off into some unknown remote parts of Malaysia for a rendezvous meet up with someone? Or just the 2 of them? Please allow our 2 stars to explain. Why am I still getting a Malaysian ringtone despite at 6pm? hee... "
Woken up by Tahir's sms, can't get back to sleep although I'm still very tired. Been busy recently, haven't blogged about the remainder of Northern Expedition. Guess the guys want to go up for another trip to Malacca this June 6th but I've a common test on June 8th. Damn! If I wanted to go, I've to study loads before the 6th, go North on the Saturday, come back and push on Sunday. Drats!
Going into JB in a while to have breakfast and lunch (Brunch!) with some of the dudes. Toodles! :]

Northern Expedition
1 short holiday span driving up from SG to KL, 2 hours spent after the SG customs towards M'sian 2nd link Customs. About 30mins waiting for Winston at Gelang Path Petronas and then we moved off with like 3 hours ahead of never ending speeding roads. There was a DVD player in Mark's car, a GPS which I updated(luckily).
