healthy lifestyle campaign

hmmm for the past 3 days i have been very proud of mysel.. got the motivation to drag my lazy ass to go jogging and throw in abit of static exercises. well the motivation came when i was talking to my fren about ippt and was reminded that the gold money is 400.. okay im not saying i will obtain a gold.. but its something to work towards right?? plus have been getting in more vege in my diet, so that’s good too!!

but all the hard work of the past 3 days was ruined in one nite at marks. number 1 killer was the lamb, and surprisingly , i had 4!! this has never happened before, as usually each one take one, then no more.. GG.. and today the last piece was sitting there screaming for ppl to eat it.. and i gladly obliger.

number 2 killa was the roast pork.. ooo with the apple sauce.. it is indeed one of the best sio bah i’ve eaten. number 3 was the beef stew.. and 4,5,6 are the potato salad n the pasta and the mushroom with some fillings (dunno what, taste good can ready)

and then after that we went to dota.. so causing me to sleep later than usual… bahhhhhh…

but it was good….

got it?? got it!

yupps, 2 days after the previous post, i finally got my email from toronto telling the the subjects that i am able to take (got 6 of them). but then i would have to re-check with my school if that’s the subjects that match the ones in my syllabus. so we can say we’re almost 90% confirmed that im going.. (i really hope sooooo)

haven’t recieve the big package from them yet, waiting to recieve then i will know when i school starts and when we will go over. so ian, watch this space and warm up the car!!

in other news, i finally got my first a this semester, in the form of my psychology module. yupps, its a pleasant surprise, although it won’t count to my grades, but its nice to see an a doesnt it?? kekekeke

well the grading system in ntu goes something like this:

DI - DISTINCTION
A - EXCELLENT
B - VERY GOOD
C - GOOD
D - PASS
E - MARGINAL FAIL
F - FAIL

if the ppl up there were die hard dota fans, it would have looked something like this:

DI - BEYOND GOD LIKE!! SOMEBODY STOP HIM!
A - GOD LIKE!!
B - WICKED SICK!!
C - DOMINATING
D - PAWNING
E - A HERO HAS FALLEN!! 6 MONTHS REVIVAL…
F - you are better off playing dota…

frustrated

every morning (ok ok afternoon) i have the same routine. after waking up, if i aint going out, i’ll walk over to the hawker centre opposite my house to buy lunch back. (in fact im so sick of the food, i need variety!!. then i’ll eat and watch some afternoon tv, usually sports or discovery travel and living.

well it might seem normal, but at the back of my head, i only want to do one thing, check my school email. so you know how it is right when you don’t wanna get disappointed too early, so you try to stall time, do as much things as possible and not check your email until a certain time.

then i’ll check it at around 3 or 4pm. (cause thats the time nearest to knock off time, so then maybe some nice soul will send the email im waiting for) and its always the same thing. emails from orientation comm, from mech camp comm, from some stranger asking me if i want a bigger penis (who doesnt?!) and from other strangers who ask me to go for some seminar or talks. but that one elusive email just doesnt seem to want to get to me…. my confirmation email from university of toronto.

my friend got his email today, but then its because there are subjects which they don’t approve. so what’s my status??? i really want to know. really really.. like what hua hui said, even a no is better than a maybe, cause at least you move on. but that false hope really kills, esp when after they say yes, means i hafta rush and do a whole load of admin work.. better say yes early…

everybody wants to be a rock star

i read with interest the huge sign up for the straits times rock band concert. apparently there are 200 over bands that signed up (or was that 800?? forgot liao i think 200 more realistic lar hor).

i appluad the idea to set up this rock band thingy, i guess in some sense it challenges the youths to channel their energy into more positive means (i think somewhat copy awakening’s idea leh). but its juz hilarious to see the profiles of the band (the life section tries to feature a band now and then…) and the names of the band is quite apalling, i don’t even wanna talk about how some of them dress.

so one word that came to mind when i saw the pictures: wannabes. i guess im making a really big and wrong generalization, but how many of them are actually doing it for would i cliche’ly put it the love of music. yeah im going to be blasted for not supporting local music again (but then not many of them write their own songs, so its more of supporting covers done by local musician)

looking back, i can safely say i picked up the guitar becoz i wanted to as the ah bengs puts it jio charbo (u can see im not very sucessful). whereas some of my pals went on to achieve greater things, like leeson who spun off from a small grp of us who just wanted to have fun after our o-levels in 1998. so that was something i eventually realised… i wonder how the bands will continue after they get ‘kicked out’ of the competition. how many will actually carry on the passion and eventually get to greater heights. or will they all die off because they realised like me, playing guitar doesnt get you the chickadees.

but kudos who fuel their passion and ambitions with determination and hard work. to continue practising and jamming, to pen songs that will be able to reach out to the masses, first in singapore, and then to maybe the region… then maybe we’ll see a new dawn of local music…

anti piracy is such a bitch

went shopping today! whee finally, i bought myself a cap from topman and the hamburger hill dvd plus gorillaz demon days. well i just realised that the gorillaz album has that anti piracy player that prevents u from ripping the songs out. well that’s just great… how can i forget not long ago that some guy wrote in to the forums to complain that this prevents pod users from transfering the songs to their ipods, stoopid me. anyway the writer has a point, becoz if you buy the cd, apparently u can take part in some contest that lets u win an ipod shuffle, so see the irony in that?? ok now gotta figure a way to disable the damn player..

stoopid anti piracy ppl..

the weekend i din dota finally mech camp is done …

the weekend i din dota

finally mech camp is done with. so that’s one camp down and one more to go. in the end everything fell into place nicely despite of the initial hiccups of being able to get only 6 schools to participate. on the whole i would say i had fun. espcially thankful to the ppl who really put in effort to see thru this camp.

i initially wanted to say more, but i suddenly writers block (or rather kenna engineer engrish syndrome.. ) so that’s all for now. stay tune to read about my encounter with the guy who thinks its sad that im not from mechanical and aerospace engineering and cant provide much help, but yet am the group leader of the kids (maybe thats why my grp din win… *shrugs*)

Oh i came home today and got a letter from international relations office…. i got… my travel grant!!! which adds on to the continuing irony of giving me the funds to travel without telling me if i can go in the first place…

all i need is a life of dota.. with me and my khakis…

decaying slowly

i really need something to do, been super non productive as of late. correction, have been super lazy after my psychology exam last week. i have tonnes of books left untouched which i know i should start reading (yes my super hero book is not yet done, cos im freaaaaking lazy). so what do i spend my days doing??

well i think i don’t need to answer that one, first is dota, second is tv, lots of tv, so its either tv or dota. damn, i really need a new hobby, have said that i wanna learn some flash, but then i cant get past the first tutorial of the help that macromedia provides, i need more motivation.

sitting here on my ass the whole day, wanted to bring my fat lazy ass to go jogging just now, but then after sitting down for too long, my butt forms a natural glue that makes me stuck to my seat. haiz..

and furthermore have been waking up at 12pm or 1pm, i really hate waking up sooo late, its like my whole day has been eaten up. damn sianz.. oh wells, i shall go wallow in self pity and more chocolates..

“what u give is what you get” - the hollow

dun blame my lau bei lau bu was reading the paper…

dun blame my lau bei lau bu

was reading the papers yesterday about a certain singaporean girl blogs (i shall make it annoynomous, but you should already know who) about her inclination to have romps with ang moh men. so recently she posted her nude pictures on the blog. apparently a close source told me she’s not chio..

but that’s not i want to talk about here, i mean i really have nothing against ppl wanting to post their naked pictures on their blogs, in fact i encourage it. (juz kidding, pld dun quote me, else i’ll have to face a firing squad in a place not far from my home). but rather, some ppl were interviewed to see their reactions to the post. and one man, whom is a 30 plus year old man said that he felt this reflect the bad upbringing by her parents.

i felt totally injust for her parents. im sure at 19 years old, the girl would have full cognitive ability to appreciate what she is doing. so regardless of her upbringing, i think if she was that horny and sluty (oops, no name calling), she’d have done it anyway. so why fault the parents. lets say a 40 year old man commits pedophilia, do we then drag out that his parents never bring him up properly? that’s unlikely the case right? we could say that he was sexually abused as a young kid, but then that is totally irrelevant to upbringing what.

which parent in the right mind tells a kid explicitly “don’t go posting ur naked picture on the internet”. if they even know wat internet was like 10 years ago. i think the responsibility lies totally with the girl. and with regards to myself, i really hope no one gives flak to my lau pei lau bu juz becoz i did something disgraceful, i assume full responsibility (i ususally blame it on the voice inside my head, nope not from God, but from the third person in me.. shite, too much psychology) and will eat the shit..

okies that’s all i hafta say.. now to take some naked pictures of myself and post it..

lack of sleep makes bone clinks to bed

reached home at 5 this morning, thanks to the ever addictive defence o f the ancients. and then woke up at an unearthly hour of 8 this morning to go to school for my travel grant interview. the interviwers were really nice, but i think my lack of sleep caused me to anyhow answer the questions. but anyhow getting the grant is useless if toronto don’t confirm my place, so UoT ppl, if you’re reading this, i really wanna know if i can go!!!

after that came back with lunch,ate showered and concussed till 4. supposed to go shopping one, but yesterday’s activities totally took the toll on me. so i guess i’ll postponed it till tmr. i oso dunno what i wanna get, any suggestions?? tag tag tag! (slut way of gettting tag hits, muahahhhaa)

but on the other hand starting to get broke, if you guys are reading this, and have job lobangs and are thinking to yourself “hmmm vincent seems like a nice fella, although i really need this job to feed my family, but i don’t mind giving it to vincent becoz he is nice guy” then do let me know too!!
