Old times' sake

Well, Friday was Teachers' Day, it was a pretty enjoyable day for me. after an entertaining(sortof) celebration, I rushed to Victoria School ASAP to meet up with the 4E guys. So good to see all the familliar faces again.
Class 4E & me
Then we went to play pool :D

Day 2: Went for hightea with my Guitar Ensem instructor and some other people from other schools. The food was okay. They had chawanmushi though, so i'm not complaining. We went to Equinox, some restaraunt on the top level of Raffles hotel, probably has a really high price as well. I took a few photos:
All landscape photos taken with my cameraphone



Except this one of course

And then back to VS for the Scouts' campfire. Nothing much to say about this one, we were playing handphone games at the back.

Also, I learnt how to play Unintened by Muse!
But one of my favourite songs is "Feeling Good":

Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom in the trees
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonflies all out in the sun
You know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies are all havin' fun
You know what I mean
Sleep in peace when the day is done
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Yeah freedom is mine
And You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
For me...

And I'm feeling good

laptop fixed!

Long hiatus on my blog, because someone dropped my bag with my laptop in it. BUT FEAR NO MORE, FOR THE SCREEN HAS BEEN FORGED ANEW. cough. So, another Olympics has come and gone. This one being the most epic of all. epic stadium, epic athletes, epic country, epic opening ceremony, epic medals, epic records. Here's a site with some really really epic photos of the opening ceremony. EPIC LINK
Here's my favourite:


So i removed my braces, and enjoyed freedom for a week. Today, i got my retainers. these things are restraining as hell. I guess you guys will be laughing at my inability to speak coherently for the next few days...ah well.
E-learning sucks shit btw.

Olympics are epic.

So. I watched the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics and boy, was it awesome. I expected something of the sort from China and they exceeded my expectations. The synchronisation of dancers/people is amazing. Seriously, it's not humanly possible. Only the Chinese are capable of such discipline and sheer epicness.

Michael Phelps. The main event of the Olympics, is made of pure awesome. Watch how he swims and find out for yourself. Gymnastics, diving, weightlifting and swimming are my fave events. Looking forward to the marathons and sprinting too.

Off-topic, my laptop's been sent for repair. Some idiot in my class dropped my bag with my lappy inside it. Now the screen flickers a little then turns black. Feel like punching the bastard. Pity he's the class monitor. So, I MAY be online in messenger, but it might not be me who's there. Watch out, malicious-people-out-there! *cough* Nigel, you sicko. *cough*

Also, http://www.cracked.com/blog/2008/08/12/what-the-olympics-really-mean-to-china/
^^^ is funny stuff, but to be taken with a grain of salt. American humour is unpredictable and full of shit.

BAZAAR RAWR

Right after school today, Nigel, Tedric and I went to Tampines mall to buy ice cream, soft drinks and clean and clear moisturiser/whitening solution/whatever. All that was for tomorrow's National Day bazaar at TPJC. Except for the clean and clear shit. That was Nigel's vanity kit. We're gonna be making floats! Though i really doubt that it will be a success. Seriously, who would want to buy floats? I think it's gonna be epic fail. Too bad we don't have nachos. Those are made of concentrated fail.

We went to Phin's for dinner. Some never-heard-of-before posh restaraunt thingie. Set meal cost 20++ incl GST. Oh the horror.

Speech Day

Right after maths tuition today, I immediately sped to Victoria School, my alma mater just in time to catch the finale. It was Mr Wong Liang Seng, our infamous opera-singing Chemistry teacher. Then the band came in and played the Victoria Anthem (School Song). That was when I realised how attached how attached I was to the school. I cried and let the tears flow freely. After the Victorian Anthem.

The most interesting part came right after the Anthem. It was the cheering competition, to see who could cheer louder, the seniors(us) or the current batch. I'm proud to say that it was a tie.
Here's a video:

I saw so many familliar faces, though some of them no longer had names attached to them. A pity.
I congratulated one of my best friends, Hong Aik.
Holy shit my gums look horrible. This is one fugly picture. Pity its the only one I got.

Then I went with a few mates (Octave Ah Pui and Kevin Lameass) to Parkway Macs for dinner. Followed by pool with Ben and one of my bestest friends, Ashpenn. I had a freakin' awesome time with all my old mates and i'm hyped for next weeks gathering.

It's sad how we don't really appreciate what we have until we lose them.
