I'm sorry. But...it's time to say goodbye.
Farewell to all the lovely memories
Farewell to the rants and raves
Farewell my dears.

Hello. I know many of you have realised that I have stopped blogging. In reality I haven't. It's just that I blog too infrequently and also I've stopped visiting Blogger.
Real life is catching up with me too fast to the point that I find it tough to blog daily as I once did. Even weekly is starting to sound like a chore.
So I regret to say that I'm shutting this down. Or to be more precise not blogging here anymore. It's time to say goodbye. Now, I MIGHT tell you where I blog now but come on. You have GOT to use the resources at your fingertips. It's so darn easy to find me online that sometimes I wonder if I'm revealing far too much information online.
And I must add that over at THAT blog, I post rather explicit, controversial, image heavy stuff so it might not be to everyone's taste. So that's a reason why I won't put it here.
Fret not if you think I'm deleting this. I'm just gonna let it take up space and collect e-dust.

Had a picnic with the budak2 melayu anderson recenyly. Oh god, was it good to see almost everyone. Except for a couple of missing people and the scholars (whom really, have never attended a gathering for as long as I can remember), it was just about everyone. It was really lovely to see everyone, even though they came late and told me to come early. Hmpf. XD
Some people it seems have changed (like Sal being slimmer) but many haven't changed much, for which I'm rather thankful for. After all, too much change and I'll doubt I can handle it - particularly in the guys; it'll only be a few more months before they leave for NS in mid Dec? I want to have a mental picture of them before they change.
Now, as much as I understand the need for conscription, I really really don't like the idea. I'm a pacifist (most of the time) and I'd rather use diplomacy instead of weapons and what nots. After all, they do say the pen
is far mightier than the sword.
I'm digressing. I guess it's true that a meal is very dependent on the company you have - it was a great meal, simple but deli. :) But the view from certain angles...*shudders* Those humongous ass thighs with cellulite and stretch marks...
EWW!!! And there was this utterly self-absorbed guy who turned to look when I said "Hey, cute boy!" a tad too loudly. I was talking about a kid in the background (partly because I'm missing the children).
Bugger.
And the amount of ugly bodies on display at the beach, oh god. My eyes are still burning from the pain. Really, people should stop harbouring fantasies of their bodies being close to perfect. Oh god, not even an extra pair of arms and legs are sufficient to count the number of ugly flabby bodies I saw. I'm not saying that it's wrong to be confident about your body and all but really, wear a damn shirt at least.
Save the world. Wear a damn shirt.
Oh and I must say that it was tough trying to suppress the desire to scream out manboobs each time I saw a pair. XD
Of course, we caught up with one another and shared tales about genies and stuff. Rather interesting conversation topic I must say; rather refreshing from the usual school. Some of us shared our mutual concern for another friend, now uncontactable. I hope she's doing fine, wherever she is.
I'm rather upset that I didn't know about the whole Kristy prank until just now. XD I've decided not to spread the news unless someone asks me about it but it entails sms-sex (which is far stupider than online sex since you pay so so much more) and a horny fella whose famous words were..."Do you love me or like me?"
ROFL!
We played beach captain ball and I must say, it was very tiring on the sand, barefoot. I have no idea who won but it was really really fun since almost everyone joined in.
I left kind of early and it's a good thing too. I came back just in time to catch the latest KBS drama I came in search of a flower. Quick, where's the 12 steps TV drama addict programme?!
PS. After the 150th post, this blog will be inactive. I'm gonna move. As to where...well, you do the work if you're really that kaypoh. After all, type in my username (which I think I need to patent btw) into google and chances are the results are all mine except those two or three porn sites. I'm not in the adult entertainment business okay. (despite the fact that it's a 5 billion dollar industry)

First off, thank you Rosie for the warm back to sch sms. :) I think it made my awesome first day even better.
My new teammates are super nice people - at least the two Pharmacy people. Joe and Zhijien aren't considered new since they're my classmates since year 1. :P
After lessons (which ended suprisingly very early), headed down to the cca fiesta thingie. It was rather nice just meeting new people. Goodness, I found a fellow DBSK SuJu fangirl in NP! *screams and jumps for joy* Naturally, we just talked and talked about the boys, nodding and agreeing with the other in between bouts of squeeling. Call me nuts for all I care. I'm a loud and proud ELF, petals, Cassiopeia (in spirit) and more. Bwaha! Only fans of the two bands would understand what I mean.
Oh god, I met Phyllis!!! *grins* Girl, I've missed you oodles! Hopefully we can meet some time soon on campus. :)
Today was a rollover of the good feelings. Okay, so the start wasn't all that great. My first impression of the new lecturer was that she was a rather domineering, intimidating and slightly brash person. But we got to know each other better and I really really like her lots. Haha.
but the prices of notes and so on are really really going to hit me hard. I'm bracing myself for LD. Who knows if suddenly one of the markers die on me or something? *shudders*
Anyways, let's get back to Mrs Rama's class. She hates the formal uses of Sir, Madam and detest 'cher. Funny lady imho. She spoke with such enthusiasm and vigour about plant genetics that I'm actually considering that line. I'll take one step at a time though. But seriously, the module is like Version 2.0 of Plant Anatomy and Morphology. But me, being the blur goon that I am, I've forgotten practically most of it. Sorry Dr Chitra! I'll work harder! And her words, they reek of sarcasm. *grins*
She made us describe ourselves in one word, preferably an adjective that starts with the same letter as our name. So I'll just put the list down here in case I ever forget it. Real hilarious...
Good Greg (Her retort later was "Do you think Good Greg is that good?")
Diver Zhijien (Inside joke amongst the boys I guess)
Vicious Victor (O.O But I do agree he can look rather scary...)
Cunning Chuen Yong (Although we were all lobbying for Wushu master)
Happy Hanif (suits the smiley fella)
Fishy Poh Chuan
(I lobbied hard for pretty. You have GOT to admit he is. In a good way. I got called evil instead. lol. But he loves fishes. Her retort was, "Might as well go with Nemo")
Catty Clara ("Ah...no wonder the fish pointed to the cat!"
Amicable Alisa
Jumpy Jacyln (This girl-lady actually contemplated Jealous but she went for jumpy instead. But I think it suits her...she's always so hyper and bouncy)
Kooky Khairul. I wanted weird but mrs rama disagreed. *rolls eyes* But it suits me, ne? I'm a nutcase, for goodness' sake. She suggested kinky but I came up with kooky. I was high!)
Lazy Loy (his words, not mine. I don't think he should have gone with that though. He's like one of the more hardworking people I know. Not to mention talented. Lovely would have been better no?)
Mini Minyi (mrs rama went, "Are you shorter than 1.5?", "Yes.")
Quacky Qianyi (Suits her I guess)
Sensible Soohoon (Although I think sweet would be better but hey, I'm not her. She knows herself better ya?)
Eating Yiting (I asked her later why and she said because it's close to my name. Delightfully clever don't you think?)
Twinkle Shuey Ting. (Hilarious shit when she was choosing her word. Cos her first word wasn't a very shall we say...clean word? All puns intended)
Whatever Wenping. (erm...)
Dashing Daniel ("Someone has some major confidence in himself I see")
Joker Joe (Rather peculiar sense of humour but he is sometimes funny)
Jerome (I totally forgot the guy's word. Because I was laughing so hard when someone suggested jackass. Can you just imagine?)
For practical, we dissected flowers - thankfully, we didn't need to make slides which most, if not all of us are horrible at. Found out some things about Lina as I eavesdropped on her coversation with Jerome, the conversation starter. I'll just leave it at that since it's not my info to share anyways.
But Mrs Rama has just gotten a sampler of our class during practical. I doubt she'll be fully prepared for our...loudness. :P I always seem to be in loud classes. But I actually enjoy it. There's a certain balance of play and work...gotta love them though. Balanced people are better than true blue no life muggers.
I'll just end things here for today. Tmr, I'm having Gardening 2.0 (officially nursery management)
Let's hope that this will be the start to all things good. (and i'm praying hard it's finances first)

Change is always constant.
-Mrs Ashaari*sigh*
Just like time then. If I said I did a whole lot of work this hols, I would seriously be lying. Heck, I even regretfully departed from the writing comm; hopefully not permanantly. I've been reading books on tackling writer's block, trying the many suggestions - all of them just don't work for me. I guess I have to settle for it then. After all, there are others whose writers block lasted for the rest of their lives. *shudder* It's a scary thought to be unable to write down eloquently for the remainder of my pathetic existence.
I'm digressing. I've been fangirling (or fanboying if you want, either's fine) over DBSK and SuJu to the point that I think I've reached the breaking point; when life actually revolves about refreshing at the various LJ comms. Yes, I do have an LJ account which I'm starting to use more often. Perhaps with time, I might even move there, like I have moved on from opendiary to xanga to blogger.
As we herald the spring's rebirth, I've looked back and realised with a sinking feeling that I've barely skimmed the surface concerning so many things. There are countless goals that I've embarked on and left halfway and so on. I have a pile of withering plunnies but I just can't. I just can't.
Oh well. Gotta take things one step at a time. but first things first. I gotta prepare for Easter goodies! Woohoo! Chocolate bunnies here I come!
My Girl was another great Kdrama though the pace was rather choppy in my opinion. Then again, with Junki around, you don't bother about the pace. lol. I swear some people are just way too beautiful to be humans. And they're guys for god's sake.
Anyways, before I start my household chores, I just wanna recommend the following:
Album: Pan's Labyrinth OST :) It's haunting and can lull one to sleep. Perfect for insomniacs and those whose professions are listed as Space Cadet.
Book: Spunk & Bite, A writer's Guide to punchier, more engaging language and style. God, it's rich and informative. Plenty of wit within that makes a dry subject hilarious and interesting. Kind of like Eats, Shoots and Leaves.
Drama: My Girl
Movie: Spiderman 3. Like HELLO?! Spidey in black? What more can you ask for?! I'm anticipating a darker, gritter movie compared to the first two. Guess I'll just sate my appetite by having the trailer on reruns. :)
Website:
http://haxorpcservices.blogspot.com which is a seriously good website for beginner and intermediate comp users. Links you up to the best Freeware products. In today's world where the technology is deeply integrated into our lives, it's important to know where to get help if you ever need em.
I guess that's about it. My mum's yelling for me to do my work now so toodles! Take care sweeties for school starts in some 2 weeks time! :)

I'm beat.
Today the Alumni had organized a dragonboat activity. In the end, only 12 came, although we had initially expected around 2 people. Nonetheless, it would prove to be a rather nerve-wrecking day.
First, we headed to Kallang where the place was held. Sure, there were shirtless guys running around but heck, I was wondering why the hell they weren't wearing shirts. Was the weather too hot? Or did they get some misguided advice from some buffoon that they ALL look good naked from the top up? Bleh. Still, I was thankful that at the very least they weren't gross to look at. Rather pleasing I would say. Around a 6-7 on MY scale?
Anyways, we split into two teams and started our brief lesson. Initially, the pace at which we rowed was wonderful, akin to say being on a gondola? That was until we picked up pace, shouting in & out, in tandem with our rowing. God, now I can add to the list I can't do well multi-tasking. I can't row and say that phrase at the same time. Twas tiring!
The worse bit of course were the games. Oh god, oh god. For those of you still in the dark, I have a slight fear of large bodies of water AND I can't swim (like DUH). So imagine having to sit on the edge of a boat (with the back facing the water) and being told to rock it until your butt 's wet. I think I screamed...I have no idea. I saw my life flash before me when the boat tilted to my side as I wailed(especially when the next command given was hands off the boat). Okay, I'm exaggerating about seeing my life flash pass me though I was furiously praying hard for the boat to stay afloat, gripping my legs to the steps and having my hands on the boat. Sure, I had on a lifejacket but come on. You don't expect me to willingly depend on that do you? However, as time passed by, I gradually got used to it and in fact I kind of enjoyed the rocking. Well, I'd prefer if we were on the ground but hey, it was fun in a taking-a-risk kind of fun (Oh, oh. Germanism!)
Things got progressively worse of course. On top of my aching arms, I was caught in a waterfight. Okay, I participated in one. But after a while, I kind of lost interest in it; I just didn't want to get wet anymore, particularly when the water stings my poor precious eyes. I'm practically legally blind for pete's sake! You'd think I want to be completely blind?! HELL NO!
Overall, it was a pleasant exciting activity. If ONLY I hadn't ventured into the toilets! Gah. Sure, I thought I was getting accustomed to seeing guys half-naked but I guess I still have issues with the human body when I turned around and saw to my horror several guys stripping to well...nothing. GAH! My eyes! My eyes! (Of course, I freaked out and practically ran out) No, no, I saw no frontal nudity although I got a horrible glimpse of some guy's butt crack. *shudders violently* I pray I don't have nightmares tonight.
Thus today could be summed up as the day of failed conquest - of the water and of course naked people.
Now, if anyone needs me, I'm in the toilet, trying to wash the horrible, horrendous, hideous image out of my mind! Gah. I wonder if I'll ever be able to overcome this in 2 years time...who am I kidding?!!
Perhaps I'd better run away across the causeway or something. and go disguise myself as a farmer. ;)

Oh goodness. I've been severely neglecting writing in any form; especially blogging due to my growing obsession; all thanks to Reg. I don't mind it of course.
But first and foremost, recently, I went to Gema Puisi Artistik (GPA) held by NYJC. It was a wonderful afternoon of performances. There were times when I did get annoyed with some audience members (who always don't seem to know when to be silent and when to cheer) but all in all, I enjoyed myself. Particularly because I managed to catch up with quite a number of friends, especially from pri sch which is rather surprising. Too bad the 6-1 class dinner was cancelled due to poor response. Oh well. All the best for the impending block exams and what nots ya?
Now, I've been lazying around at home until I found out that Mr Chow wants my team to submit more things like a detailed something something. Can't be bothered to check up. All I know is that I'm totally screwed as like I've said, I've neglected work due to Jaeho and SuJu fever. (Sings off-key..."Cos I can't stop thinking about you...")
Went back to my pri sch on Tues to do the PSG website. *sigh* I guess I'm down on my luck since on the way, I realised my laptop charger, a bloody heavy piece of contraption that costs close to two whole week's allowance, was damaged. I wanted to scream and kick up a fuss but unless I acquired Micah's power, I'm doomed to waiting until Mon to get a new one. The agony, oh the horrendous agony!
Anyways, I received some flak for growing my hair long; long enough to require a hairband to keep my fringe from falling into my eyes long. Aish. I wonder what's so wrong about it. It's not as though I have a lot of time to muddle with my hair. Time flies past so darn fast that soon I'd have no hair at all. And when I do get back my hair, it's too late to alter it since I'd be considered an old man who doesn't know how to dress his age (or something along those lines) Oh well. Just gotta grin and bear it because I have absolutely no intention to cut my hair until I have enough hair to imitate some hairstyles I'm eyeing.
And my home network is finally set up. Thank heavens. No more fighting over the main comp for the use of Internet. Booya!
I did rather well for my examinations for anyone curious enough to know. but I won't divulge the grades unless you ask nicely over MSN. Nyeh!
Thus, it's time to pull the socks and get cracking. Well, once I'm done refreshing the comm's page.

I guess the relief teaching ship has just set sail and I'm here at the docks, waving goodbye. Oh well. There's still the next holidays!
Yesterday, I trekked up Mt Everest, scaled the Great Wall, went back in time to witness the destruction of Troy and oh yes, stepped out of my house. Of course, I'm lying - all except the last bit. I actually went out to do something other than buy food and newspapers.
I'm crapping. To cut things short, I finally managed to get hold of Regina and we went to watch Iwo Jima. Before that, we went to Kino where I realised the lack of wallet-friendly reading materials around me. *sigh*
Iwo Jima is one historical war film those who have a weak stomach should avoid at all cost. I wonder if Clint Eastwood decided, "Hey! I have some extra bloody bits from Flags of our Fathers. I'll just dump them in Iwo AND add more gore!"
The suicide scenes (is it considered seppuku?) were truly disturbing to watch. I mean I've watched scenes of ppl blowing their brains off (Unterfall) but this was just a tad too graphic for me.
Overall, it is a film I'd recommend to many due to its sensitive portrayals, its gripping storyline and for all you slashers out there (you know who you are...) there's quite a few of pairings to watch for. Of course, sitting beside Regina and me trying to get rid of the imageries, we focused more on Saigo who in our opinion looks a lot like Sungmin from SuJu.
I'll update later. So remember. Go watch Iwo Jima before it's too late. :)
