another quarrel...

it's slowly becoming a daily affair... this pesky idiot... normally would fetch mum back from work, and usually after quarrels, would felt that it is inappropriate to fetch her back from work... Today i just got exceptionally worked up... normally i would have gritted my teeth and kept quiet. Well... Not today. I questioned his decision, in which he came in with his now-usual words in quarreling. Money. Mum and I never helped him, and when he 'was rich' (it was a one-off) , he paid $1000 to help Mum get a Rolex... ($1000 is just 1/5 of the price of a Rolex, mind you) ... kept reminding me of the fact, asif I never paid $1000 alongside him. I spent $1000 TOO. And no one ever heard me mentioning it as much as him. It's horrible. Then everyday keep dwelling on the 300 bucks he gave Mum as monthly groceries & essential items. HELLO? Yes, you DID gave the money, but you just took the rest of your pay and dump it at the racecourse. FAILED to settle the bills, an

Sorry issues...

After a long layoff... I'm finally back... but this time I got a whole new chunk of complaints to file... I'm typing this while fighting back tears welling in my eyes... So, I'm finally 18, but nothing else changes. Dad's still a persistent die-hard gambler, and whole family's still trying to make ends meet. 3 months of bills, SCV, elec & water, SingTel, SingNet... all unpaid... it's not the first time... Today SCV cuts off tranmission to my tv... back to those free-to-air channels for a while at least... Kinda expecting the rest of the essentials stuff to be cut off one by one... Mum got Dad to go over to Aunt's house to try ang get her to 'talk sense' into him... However, unfortunately (for me & Mum), it didnt have the desired results... Aunt decided to help him CLEAR THE BILLS. WTF!?! I mean, here you are, trying to help talk some sense into Dad, and instead of reprimanding him, you gone ahead to help him. Never mind abt that....

Well into August...

Hullo everyone... and first of all... a belated "Happy National Day, Singapore!" Ok, with that out of the way, I can start crapping on this blog again. Let's see... A few more weeks to the first exam period of the new school term... already I'm feeling the stress of it already. So far, I have not really done any real studying on the 4 subjects that I will be tested on... Confidence or just plain lazy? I guess it's the latter. -heh- I didn't go to school today... another fine example of my laziness, I woke up at 9.30am... took a look at the clock, and went to sleep again, despite the fact that my lessons start at 10am. Haha...and eventually I decided to skip the day altogether. ( Lazy...lazy...lazy...ZzzzZz) Anyone watched the National Day parade on Monday? Tell me about it if you could =D. I missed it. Was out watching Collateral at West Mall... Crap show if you ask me, the whole 2 hour show was just about 1 long night, during which a murderer goe

A rare "post" out of the blue...

H ello everyone...   I guess I'm inept at maintaining a blog...so I guess all of you out there need not check back here very often. I will update this when I really have something to say... Too many times I been here to type in a new post, and too many time I deleted everything i typed and log out without posting anything... so here I am... posting up occasionally...   Ok...quick update...   2 weeks into the new school term... Nothing changed... Everyone still roughly the same, except for changes in appearance..(Notably Norezan and Jason) Anyway, got quite a number of female lecturers for this semester, a refreshing change from last year... but nothing to cheer about really... they aren't that nice anyway. Oh yah...Mass lecture... very different from what I expected it to be, to be honest... Those nasty "timetable schedule-er" assigned one of the oldest lecture theatre for my class... one that doesn't have any aircon controls!! (I bet they pipe out so

F.O.P... zzzz and its July!

S orry people... didnt update for the whole WEEK ... heez. Was too tired by the time I reach home in the evening, and spent the whole night sleeping away for most of the week. Anyway, was busy with the F.O.P, everyday woke up at 6.30am, reach school by 8am, and events just start rolling one by one, non-stop. On the first day of F.O.P, I was deployed at the entrance of the Convention centre, ushering the Freshies in. I was appalled by the sheer number of newbies coming in and searching for their classes on the noticeboards. Each of them has the -hope- of coming to poly to have a good time on their faces... Not much trouble ushering the thousand freshies into the Hall, with the exception of several blur-looking guys. Not much good looking females either, following the trend of EEE... (the only ones being those from other schools, whom "stumbled" towards the Convention Centre by accident...haha) The rest of the first day was dedicated to guiding my assigned class on a Cam

Just another day...

G eez... failed to update since tuesday... just thought it's time to submit another piece on my boring life... Anyway, the day started early, literally, got outta bed at around 7.30am, and managed to reach school's Concourse building just in time at 9am. Qn : Reason why I'm there so early during the holidays? Ans: Freshmen Orientation Rehearsal ... It's basically a walkthrough on how to get the Freshmens together in small groups for a ice-breaking session and leading them through workshops, and on the Campus tour. We Class Reps went through the workshop programmes ourselves, with the lecturer watching us throughout. To be honest, it was a bore. Most of us have been through all these activities, and asking us to go through it again is like -DUH-... Everything was the same, just that this time we are the facilitators instead of being those who were being facilitated... The things that's on my mind since today's rehearsal are Mr Chee's word

steamboat...

H ad my steamboat dinner last night with old friends... All of them still as fun and as crappy as they were during secondary school... Desmond, in particular, looks to be having a lot of fun in Ngee Ann Poly (kinda regretted not going there, heh), cheeks grown pink due to constant fun in the Sun, and I had a chat with him about school life and found out that his life in poly is much more better than mine... (sigh~) Anyway... back to the dinner, I reached Marina at about 6+ (some 15 minutes after the meeting time) with Bert, Wee and Lee Yi. True to customary 07 slackers custom, there were quite a few others who came later than my group, but everyone had no qualms about waiting for them at the hot and stuffy Marina Bay station. Finally everyone arrived and we set off towards the bus stop, and even before we reach it, we were coerced into a minivan and set off for the steamboat 'restaurant'... (Bad choice if you asked me, was expecting something nicer like the Ma La steambo

boring holidays...

"*yAwnz*... just woke up... sheesh its 10:30am already..." I t's been like that for me ever since this term of school holiday started. Its been play, play, play... and MORE play. Every single day will start at 10am and ends at 2am for me. Getting sick and tired of this life, can't wait for school to resume classes. Let's see what have i done during the holidays... 1. I tried to brush up my Engineering Maths... FAILED. Didn't really get started, got some notes from cousins, but never fully utilise it, really need to buck up soon. Hmmz, that's about the only -serious- thing I set out to do for the holidays, and I didn't even complete it. Wasted. This entry looks so boring to me so far, lol~. Other more interesting things... There was the chalet back in May with my classmates, that was fun, bunch of people who could stay up all night playing poker cards and PS2, and plonked into bed the moment the Sun arises. Then, there w

anger management (The idea was there, but shame about the execution)

"Ahh.. I feel like smashing things to pieces again..." S heesh, its the umpteenth time today that i felt like doing that... The thought of my bad back infuriates me... When can it recover? It's been like hurting for months and months and almost a year now. I feel sick and tired having to nurse it without much effect. It limits my mobility severely. Here i am again, spending the day away wastefully playing the -love of my live-, Championship Manager 2003/04 , on my PC. Needless to say, i find myself angry again. Playing with a good friend of mine over the net, our teams met in the game, and i got thrashed 6-2. Its such a trivial thing, looking back at it, but it was another instance when i got worked up for nothing. Over the course of my life, i bet i have built up a reputation of flaring up for the slightest of reasons... Hate that tag, BIG TIME . I thought i have calmed down over the years, but looking back, i dont think i did. There was this incident som

lonely.

2 nd Blog... It's been in my mind for quite some time, -yiKez- my social circle is getting smaller ! Looking at the address book list in my phone nowadays, there's only a handful of people i would -dare- to ask to go out... Am I that anti-social? I really hope I'm not but it's hard to believe in that when you are in my shoes... Sometimes i wondered, had i went to JC, would my social circle be as pathetic as now? Don't get me wrong, Poly is not exactly bad by any means... just that being in JC, there's more chance of mingling with people (e.g. those people in the next classroom), being in Poly is like, you will only know people from your buddy class, and not anymore other than that, unless you're very -OuTsTaNdInG- (in whatever sense you can think of)... Where are all my old friends? I hope I would be able to catch up with them sometime... and not be feeling so isolated as i feel now.
