Hong Kong Trip

2010-03-27T21:06:00.006+08:00

I shall finally get back to this blog after a 3 month hiatus.
Came back from Hong Kong a week ago from a 5 day 4 night trip.

Lets start from Day One:

Its the first time that I took a plane albeit the one to Indonesia when I was Primary 1 which I had totally no memories of it. I was late for the meeting time, arriving at the airport 15 minutes late. Did the routine and boarded the plane. Shall say sorry to Joan for saying no to change with her my window seat.

After alighting the plane, we went off to Repulse Bay aka 淺水灣 which is where their up-market properties are. Jackie Chan has a house over there. Next is Stanley Market which didn't make much impression for me.

We then took on the roads to the Victoria Peak, so many turns like going to Cameron Highlands. The sight on the Victoria Peak is breathtaking but the haze was really disappointing. Had Mcdonald's at the Peak and took the almost 45 degree tram down with a DSLR and my own camera in hand. Checked in to the hotel and this time round we conceded to the request of Joan and Zoe for the change of room.

Day 2
Went to the Avenue of stars there to take pictures of the Harbour plus visiting their tourism visitor centre. Next up DISNEYLAND!

It was fun even if the rides aren't very exciting, Golden Mickey Musical is fabulous so was the parade. Spent the whole day with the Sunflower girls aka 05 girls. The fireworks was great. The day was then capped off with chatting with them in the room.

Day 3
OCEAN PARK! We hit the rides straight after the cable car ride in which Zoe refused to open her eyes for the whole journey, we started with a not so heart stopping rollercoaster ride and then the scary part! The ABYSS aka tower drop. This is the conversation between me, Kingsley and the senior.

*Once we put on the belts*
Pinyi: I can't believe we are in this shit.
Kingsley: I also.
*The operator started speaking cantonese and only kings understand*
Kingsley: They say they looking for one screw that dropped leh (Joking)
Senior: 这样不好玩leh.
*Then the operator smiled and pressed on the button and we rose to the air*
Pinyi: *Expletives came out*

It followed by ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh and it became no kick liao. LOL.

While queuing for the Viking, we knew that the rollercoaster was closed. PHEW
It was followed by the animal show and then lots of carnival games in which got plushies.
Singapore Underwater World is like so much better than their exhibits.

Rushed back down to the mountain for the behind the scenes tour which wasn't that behind the scenes, only the presentation from their marketing director was good.

The night was continued for our first shopping trip at the LADIES MARKET! Managed to SHA JIA for a bag from 150HKD to 100 HKD and managed to get some cheap stuff like magnets and all. Its much like Bugis Street I will say.

Their Wanton noodles rocks and it cost only 13HKD!
Had Dim Sum for supper after that with Kings since the girls don't want to makan.

Day4
First up we went to their "Suntec" which is a convention centre in their city centre. We were allowed access to one of their trade fairs but it look similar to Suntec anyway. Went to makan at their cha chan ting, a plate of rice cost me a whopping SGD 11. But it was nice nonetheless.

After lunch we went to visit the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. They gave us a talk on their courses which according to them is 2nd in the world. As usual, I think of studying in a foreign country, but then, not until I can secure a scholarship. They actually build a HOTEL for their students to learn about their hotel management modules. JACKIE CHAN is their honorary professor and we visited his office.

And night we went to Temple Street which is a tad lousier than Ladies Market with NOTHING to buy, the guys and Mr Chin then went to Lan Kwai Fong, it was very nice with pubs and everything. We then walked up and up with the escalator until there are no pubs.

The last night was a fun one, we chatted and play games all night with the girls and had breakfast at 6 in the morning. The dance and everything will be remembered!

Day 5
After 3 hours of sleep, we set of to their "Expo", a convention centre near their airport. Those jokers said that they are preparing stuff and we are not granted access to any of their halls and we can't even take pictures. WTH.

We then proceed to Marriott, in which their marketing director came down to address us and their sales manager brought us around. Their facilities are very grand as usual and the rooms are great.

Next up is the FACTORY OUTLET stores. It actually a shopping mall which lots of factory outlets. One mistake is to let the girls order the food, we actually ate super lots because of their ordering. Hahas. And there were really nothing to buy for nuts.

I will definitely remember how some HK people are really ill mannered. My bag bumped to an air stewardess, I said sorry and she gave me those despising sound. Zzz.

Chatting on the plane ended the journey!

Thanks to the following people for this trip:

Kingsley, Yuren, the SUNFLOWERS, the ROSES, Mr Chin, Mr Lim, Mrs Sam, the Seniors and all that made this trip and enjoyable one!

Christmas 2009

2009-12-26T01:35:00.002+08:00

Christmas was spent with 2e2 this year.
Went over to my Grandma house for the annual Christmas Dinner before dropping by Kokkiong's house for this gathering.

Brought over a bottle of Absolut Mandarin and started some not so intense drinking games.
Well, no one got drunk and thats a good thing.

Saw Liting and Vannesa which are long time no see people. Okay, that sounds weird, but I lazy to rephrase it.

I got a mouse and cookies for presents. 2 presents. WOW. A lot.

Festive Season

2009-12-20T19:13:00.002+08:00

Its the festive season yet again, Christmas and the New Year.
2010 is fast approaching and yet I've not even pass one year in SP.

Went to some CC KTV with 2e2 peeps, the KTV is cheap and nice I would say. $6 for a weekend 5 hours, worth it. Didn't took any pictures.

Caroling as expected, CANCELLED.
I've practised at least 3 versions of Joy to the World. And guess what, I've not perform them even once? I got such a thick stack of carols like Silver Bells, Jingle Bells and Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Collaborating with the Band for their concert, doesn't seem very viable with the amount of singers we have? This choir doesn't have the luxury of having a lot of singers during practice. Trying to get 15 members to come is too tedious I guess. A choir with 2 basses, that explains quite a lot of the choir.

I guess I am going to graduate poly with grades but not with a impressive resume. I've lost the passion to go for posts and all. Not like back in Hai Sing, pursuing posts in Prefectorial Board, Choir and Scrabble.

End of this post with a quote:
"Humor brings insight and tolerance. Irony brings a deeper and less friendly understanding."

Holidays

Its the festive holidays aka the year end holiday. A short 3 weeks holiday though.

Choir don't know will go caroling not.
If not, I will be slacking everyday at home for the holidays.

A lot of people's holidays were like filled to the brim, Shermaine have only like so called 5 days without going out this coming holidays?

Exam Week

2009-12-10T15:47:00.002+08:00

Done using Zbrush

The exam week came fast and going fast too.
One more paper to go, Audio Visual Systems.

I seem so slack but confident, whats wrong with me.
Thank goodness the papers are rather easy.
Not just for me, most of the classmates would agree that the papers are rather easy.

Maintain my GPA and be constant in performance. Thats what I am aiming for.
Getting a pass is never enough in Poly unless you are just looking for a easy way out and getting a diploma with a sucky GPA.
I have never thought of doing that, I'll graduate with grades so called FLYING COLOURS.

Self hynotising isn't that bad after all.

Hai Sing Golden Jubilee Dinner

2009-11-27T16:01:00.002+08:00

Long due post of the Hai Sing Golden Jubilee Dinner.
Went there alone after going off early from school. Rushed home and get changed to go to Suntec and managed to reach on time though.

I was seated at Table 6, its a VIP table. I was sitted behind the table of VVIPs like Mr Surin and the Archbishop of Singapore. The food served was great I would say.

Took quite a number of photos with the sec 4 graduating batch. As O Levels came to a closure, they will embark on a new journey in their tertiary education. Lets see which juniors will come to SP!

600th Post and 17th Birthday

2009-11-08T20:38:00.003+08:00

BRACE YOURSELF FOR A LENGTHY POST, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Well, I've been waiting for rather long to write this 600th post of this humble blog of mine. Started on May 2006 as planetyi1992.blogspot.com, using my nickname for long, Planet Yi and it transformed to always-be-there-for-u.blogspot.com because of a girl. HAH! Those childish thinking and so on.

Well, time seems to pass so fast. Secondary School is over, Os was like a whole year back and now I am in Singapore Polytechnic Diploma in Integrated Event and Project Management striving to get a Diploma in Merit.

Its like 2009, 3 years since the start of this blog, this blog used to be a daily blog and to a point in time that I blog weekly and now only blogging when there is a need to update this pathetic so called journal of mine as memories.

Poly life hasn't been as smooth sailing as it seems, well, I do agree that we aren't as chiongster as JC-ians but we still have to do our fair share of work and stepping out of the comfort zone of academia subjects such as physics and chemistry. As for the circle of friends, starting to be much more gelled with the class, but still, friction still occurs between me and the others and also among the class.

CCA-wise, didn't dared to try other CCAs, so stuck with my comfort zone of singing. Well, the passion of singing is still there, and SP Choir did broaden my perspective about singing. But my voice is more adept to choral singing rather then pop singing. Hope that I can go carol this time round, although commitments are going against it.

Well, 17th birthday as usual, getting more and more simple. Didn't wanna go out for any expensive dinner or what. Stayed at home. Won't cheat myself saying that I don't feel sore that I don't have a birthday celebration and keep attending those for others?

CHALET WORK SEM 2

2009-10-21T15:49:00.004+08:00

Haven't been blogging since last week?

Well, had DEPM 1A/06 chalet at Home Team NS Pasir Ris from Oct 12-14.
It was rather fun with this class, its true that we knew each other only for like 6 months or less?
Lots of movies and first night was drinking night. So many of them knocked out and did funny things. These would be classified as funny memories and will be cherished forever.

I learnt how to ride a bike in like 2 hours and cycled around Pasir Ris area only.

Went to work at Carrefour Warehouse Sales again for the double pay on Deepavali. Worked with Jian Khai for the first time. Not really a difficult job but was rather mundane.

Well, we started Semester 2 this week, the modules seems tougher then the previous semester. But I'll still try my best to maintain the grades. Roll of Honour 2011!

Someone told me that maybe I ain't brave enough to protect someone that I love, thats why I didn't manage to start a relationship. Wow, what a blow at my head.

Evade from True Self.

This photo is photoshopped.
What I interpret of this picture is that the inner self of the person is not facing the one facing the mirror, evading from true self.
I think that is what a lot of people is doing. Not daring enough to face their true self. But maybe, sub-consciously.

Going to chalet with DEPM 1A/06 at the Home Team NS chalet for 3D2N!

F1 Simulators Dismantling

2009-10-08T23:54:00.002+08:00

Did a short assignment of dismantling F1 simulators at Singtel building near Raffles Place.
We simply dealt with bolts and nuts as this is how the "F1 Car" is secured to the simulator.
This assignment was really short.
The two technicians even flew in from Britain to dismantle these two for roughly about 6 hours?
Quite an interesting and quirky job I would say.

Can't express myself as thoughts run wild in my mind.

End of Work

2009-10-03T16:07:00.002+08:00

Finally ended my 3 week stint working as a mooncake packer and promoter for Marriott.
Never felt so relieved when ending yesterday night's work finishing selling the stocks at Tampines Mall.

Did packing for the first week while doing promoting at Tampines Mall for 2 weeks. Gained lots of experience during this period of time.

Lots of Thank You to Hazel, my in-charge at the mall and all my partners like HuiMin, CheesSian and ChooYan.

TOP SALES!

Marriott Hotel Mooncakes

2009-09-23T21:31:00.000+08:00

This is the pricelist for the offers available for the mooncakes!
Please direct any enquiries to me via phone or mail(:

GPA and Mooncakes.

2009-09-23T16:21:00.004+08:00

What does all this pictures have in common?
One word: Work.

The first one is IT Show. Sucky pay with lots of labour involved. Carry stocks and pack them for customers. I think more then 200 laptops went through my hands over that weekend.

The second one is Isetan Private Sales IT personnel for NEC Asia. Cock up when my agent told me that I will have to troubleshoot laptops blah blah blah. Then the onsite supervisor told me that it had nothing to do with laptops except the the CASH REGISTERS are computers. How great was my agent's description. Best of all. We have to carry those SOPHISTICATED CASH REGISTERS and wire them up. With a team of about 8, we had to carry and wire about 50 of them. From 9am to 8.30pm.
Then the next day, 9pm report for work for the DISMANTLING! Work all the way till 1am with reimbursing of cab fare.

The last picture is my current job right now. Selling mooncakes for Marriott Hotel at Tampines Mall. Today off day, so here I am blogging.
Promoting mooncakes is alright, packing was rather boring but this two days at TM was rather good albeit some not very good experiences.
Need more sales experience to cope with those more difficult customer.

Was surprised to be praised by the last customer yesterday, the conversation goes like this:

Pinyi: *Rambling on and on about promotions and gave samples to this particular customer*
Customer (Uncle and Auntie): But we don't have the cards mentioned but we did invest in RBS bank.
Pinyi: *Wanting to close the last sales of the day* Ok, I'll give you the discount *While I continue to talk about things I missed just now and asking them to come back.*

Guess what, the Uncle shook my hands and thought that I was an experienced salesperson when he said that he trained salesperson in the past and he said that I am good at promoting. Even if he bought only one box, I felt rather satisfied. As that was only my 2nd day doing off site sales.

Support me at the Marriott Hotel booth just in between Macdonalds and the Body shop of Tampines Mall from 10am to 9.30pm everyday till next Friday!

As for my GPA, rather satisfied with my results with room for improvement. Will be considering to take the Diploma Plus programme or not. Seems tough.

JOBS

2009-09-07T16:16:00.003+08:00

Credits: To the same photographer that photoshopped as of the photo below.

Didn't get the mooncake job that Mr Chow told the class. Like sian-ed.
Need a job like really since doesn't have much activities over this few weeks. Anyone got lobang?

UPdate: Seems like I got the Mooncake promoter job liao. For only like 3 weeks. Then Daisy called ask me do Comex for 2 days.

Feeling out of place almost everywhere I go.

Gatherings

2009-09-02T21:29:00.004+08:00

Went back to Hai Sing on the day before Teacher's Day which happened to be also the last paper of the End of Module Exams.

Only reached Hai Sing at about 10? Despite I woke up at 9? So didn't manage to see the lower sec. Caught the concert. Quite a novelty to think that the concert was held outside the HOD. Thats a pretty good idea I supposed.

Lunched with Clive and some other juniors before recapping some of my notes for the exam at the library, saw Wingsum and a few others.

Trained to school, and took the exam. It wasn't exceptionally tough, but hope can get my desired results. I'm not in Singapore Polytechnic to just get a Diploma in Integrated Events and Project Management with a less than satisfied GPA.

Followed by the exam, went to Tampines to meet up with 2e2 peeps, the usual few with Ethel, Nigel and John Chen. Had sort of a mix up before dinner, in the end settled down at 4th level Open Plaza pizza-ing. Chatted and took a lot of pictures for them with Wanling's friend's D40. Took 81 back, while waiting, we discovered John Chen's secret talent. Doing the Cadbury commercial. Check out FB if you are interested.

Fast forward to next day. Had a 1/3 class gathering. Thought its a class thing, in the end only me, Felicia, Shermaine, Cynthia, Sue, Elleyana and Kingsley. Watched "The Proposal" at Lido. Not a very awesome movie but just average. Whats with me watching all this love flicks. Had quite a great time with the peeps before training home yet again.
Was kinda surprised to see a girl sitting in front of me on my journey to Somerset and saw her again on my way back. SCARY.

Hope I can get my job soon.

Hai Sing Catholic School

2009-08-30T23:19:00.003+08:00

Almost 3/4 year have passed for a lot of Haisians since they set foot on the Haising Campus. I've been going back for quite a few times since the turn of the year.

Fond memories can be found almost everywhere of the campus due to the small size of it, silly things done in class, scoldings, fear for results, anxiety during Os. Even during the lower secondary years in the new block can be deemed as memorable. Friendships and connections built over this 4 years is immense.

Can't believe that in like 2 years, the juniors that I know now will be graduating.

Liangying mentioned that she is looking forward to going back to Haising for Teacher's Day the first time as a graduant/ alumni. Guess lots of people out there share her sentiments, including me.

God Bless Hai Sing.

Have to go back to SP for my last paper, Events Materials and Decorations at 4.

Exams

2009-08-28T16:31:00.003+08:00

The SKY's the Limit

The above photo was photoshopped by Erik Johannson to create mind boggling effects.
The sky's the limit: A labourer lays a reflection on the road

Came across the above photo, found it interesting so posted it here.

Exams are going to be finished, 4 down 1 more to go!
Decorations and Materials isn't my favourite subject nor my most hated subject, but the amount of things (hard facts) to cramp inside my head is enormous.

And I really pei fu those JC students who survive the ordeal and tell the tale. Seeing some of my friends struggling in JC isn't a great feeling I'll say. Come to think of it.

Poly is really slack in some areas, like the time for resting can be more then sufficient when compared to JC student if you do your work diligently and on time sparing yourself from the situation of burning midnight oil to chiong projects that can be done throughout the whole of 2 weeks or so.

Will end this post with a joke I came across on net, not mocking the JCs but its quite a true reflection for some of them. If you find then offensive, leave a tag.

Question: How many students does it take to change a light bulb?

Raffles Junior College: Four whole faculties. One to design the new bulb, one to manufacture and test it out, one to write a proposal on it and one to market it to the public.

Hwa Chong Junior College / Institution: The whole school. To compete with RJC.

Victoria Junior College: The whole school. One student to screw it in and the rest to cheer and wave flags and banners to give their support.

National Junior College: None. They can study without light.

Anderson Junior College: None. They’re too busy trying to be one of the top five JCs.

Anglo-Chinese Junior College: None. They’ll rather use all their money to employ Yishun Junior College to do it for them.

Catholic Junior College: None... They’ll prefer it to be dark... *raises eyebrows*

Tampines Junior College: None. They’re striving to get every one of their students into universities on the other side of Singapore, would they even care about light bulbs?

St Andrew’s Junior College: None. They’ll just pray for light.

Nanyang Junior College: None. They’re still using oil lamps.

Pioneer Junior College: Heck the light bulb lah, the principal will surely do something about it... Hey! Let’s do 300 jumping jacks for not wearing the proper school attire!

Meridian Junior College: None. They’re too busy trying to get promoted.

Innova Junior College: None. They’re Innovians. They’ll find ways out of the dark.

Jurong Junior College: None. They’re in an “edupreneurial” college. They’ll think of the most cost-efficient, economical alternatives.

Serangoon Junior College: None. They are too busy trying to attain more value-added grades in their A-Levels to bother about a light bulb.

Yishun Junior College: None. I thought they’re working for ACJC already? They need that money to renovate their school...

Temasek Junior College: None. They think they’re already very bright.

And finally...
Millennia Institute: None. They accidentally dropped the light bulb. And it will take a millennium for them to find another.

Drawing Test

2009-08-20T20:40:00.002+08:00

All we are given is 2hours to complete 3 of such drawings... And mind you, the 2D to 3D drawing aka isometric drawing is much more difficult then the above one.

Lucky this test is only 35%. Better don't affect my GPA too much sia this module.

Back to business, 4 full days to study for LAW and CONSTRUCTION.
Doesn't sound too good.
Whereas Materials Decor can wait.

Wish me luck.

Work

2009-08-13T15:23:00.006+08:00

Work at some Harris/ Popular bookfair at Great World City some weeks back.
IT Test wasn't that pleasant due to the short time that we have for the test.
Hope to get an A for IT at least. PLEASE!

Hello

2009-08-01T16:51:00.000+08:00

A "fruitful" week has pass.
Most of the modules, if not all of the modules are coming into the ending topics.
Can't find the motivation to study.

2009-07-25T19:49:00.000+08:00

Finally can blog here, although it still looks weird.

Just felt like blogging. Lots of undue assignment to be done. Just to name a few, perspective drawing, construction tutorial and model making. While end of module test/exam is coming in a month or so.

CHOIR CAMP 2009 CHOIR OVERNIGHT AND GAMES DAY!

2009-07-19T15:03:00.003+08:00

First Day:

Wouldn't name it Choir Camp due to the fact that it didn't feel like a camp. Will post up the pictures once I get it from Kenneth.

Went to the clubhouse after school to get all the camp stuff with Xuanxin and Qimin.
Went back to start the BBQ, first time using a electric BBQ pit, it can be called instant but its not easy to cook on it at all. Would prefer using the conventional one.
Epic failure in cooking corn kernels and chicken wings.

Booked the karaoke room for an hour, most of them didn't come up to the room when I asked. Sadded. Well, Most of them came up when Kenneth asked them to. IL Divo version's of songs from Matthew and Jason, Arthur's version of oldies and a whole lot of Jay Chou's songs.

Went down to play a game of twister, with the colour circles substituted with a mixture of flour, food colourings and water in which the results are slimy coloured dough.

Went to wash up after that, surfed http://www.oddee.com/ with some of the choir mates before most of them went to sleep while the guest singers are playing cards.

Me and Benjamin went out to talk and we decided to walk to Clementi. Surprised to see that NTUC was opened at like 2.30am in the morning. Bought some drinks and walked back. Talked about practically everything from soccer to CCAs. Reached school at like 3am, and having to climbed through a small hole to get into the school.

The guests singers are still playing cards while Xuanxin and Kenneth is awake still. Played with Fifa 09 while Xuanxin and Benjamin played some games on the lappie too. Slept at around 4?

Woke up at 7.30 to wash up and had breakfast...blah blah. Fast forward.

Qimin asked her classmates to come and be helpers for the camp, so due to the "OVERWHELMING" numbers of choir members we have, we played captain's ball.
Why so SERIOUS?

Lunch was a packet of Nasi Lemak and 4 more chicken wings left over from yesterday. After that went back to the dance studio to slack. And planned the charades with Faith and Qimin, with words like Esplanade and Tigger's Pogo Stick. Played some games with Spaghetti, balls, and chairs.

BREAK CAMP

A great thanks to the seniors for the camp (ton-ing session or whatever this can be called), although of the low turnout of the event.

ZL SAVES THE DAY!

2009-07-19T08:35:00.002+08:00

Xiu Zhen and Joelin's 17th Birthday Celebration

2009-07-12T16:47:00.003+08:00

Killed two birds with one stone as we celebrated Xiu Zhen and Joelin's 17th Birthday together yesterday. We had dinner at Shokudo at Raffles City there. Had some arguments before that, hope its alright. Went to the arcade and pool at Marina Square.

A innocent joke was translated to a late night movie at EHUB! I merely joked about going to watch a movie when they said they wanna go home, in the end, birthday girl XIUZHEN, FABIAN and DEREK thought that I was serious and asked everyone...
So in the end, 9 of us went back to Pasir Ris together and 6 of us watched ICE AGE 3. It started at 1135 and ended round 1255. First time watched a movie till go late lorh. Walked home after that.

Scrabble Competition 2009

2009-07-05T15:12:00.004+08:00

Took part in the first Scrabble competition for the year. Its some sort of competition that is held by NTUC, was rather surprised to find players from Singapore Scrabble Association. The first game was played with some less skilled players. In the end only liangying got the best player out of the three opponents. So we won the first team game by 2-1.

Next up was SA veteran players. Was feeling kinda demoralized when the opponents changed places to pit me against their captain. Well, they are Category A players in the Association whereas I am just a newly promoted Cat B player. We exchanged moves in lightning fashion and finished the game in about 25 min and 13 moves. A clearing last move is a bingo and I won the Singapore ranked 27th player by a mere 29 points. It still didn't warrant us a prize as liangying and xiuzhen went down to their superior opponents.

Weekend.

2009-06-29T23:43:00.005+08:00

Suddenly felt like blogging.
Went to school to get back contruction test. And the fun thing is due to the VERY LENIENT marking of Mr Tang. (PS. I am not being sarcastic). I got a B + when I expected a borderline pass.

Went to replace Yu Ren at the Carrefour warehouse sales at the Elias CC there during the weekend. Not very difficult but mostly is labour lorh. Got to know a few friends and thats all.

2009-06-27T00:02:00.002+08:00

Had International Water Festival last Sunday to help out the other classes for their Event Experience. Its at Marina Barrage, just did some manual labour and stuff like that.
And here comes the fun thing. After lots of scolding from a random uncle, we loaded a truckful of things that are going back to SP, including goodie bags and mineral water. They refused to give them to the general public and we have to GET it back to SP!
Some poor guys and I have to get on to the truck to get back to SP and we were given "FIRST CLASS" seats at the back of the truck. I shall be thankful that I didn't suffocate, die of dehydration or a hole in my head (one of a stands hit me on my head, thanks goodness it isn't the sharp edges.)

22nd June 2009:
The start of Singapore International Water Week (SIWW), reported for work at Suntec, the first day was spent with three people from 1A/01, Paulyna, Fish and Ray. The first day was spent scanning bar codes. YES. Scanning bar codes because of H1N1. The day was generally quite good I supposed?

23rd June 2009:
A bad start to the day, was late for work for like 2o min and everyone was inside le? I think so. And thats kinda bad. Well, spent half of the day with Liying at the thermal scanning station. And Shirline thought that Liying is more of a masculine name as she thought that Liying is the male instead of Pinyi. The guard was funny and so was Liying. She wants me to put her in my msn category as the "Most Friendly Senior" LOL at that. Then the later half of the day, met Shixuan, Michelle and another girl for barcode scanning like AGAIN.

Oh and after the SIWW, went to find the 2e2 peeps for a dinner at Bedok with my office attire, no wonder that I can order beer for Derek who wanted it. ( I know even if I don't wear that I can also buy)

June 24th 2009:
The third day was the slack-iest day as Shirline who is the in charge forgot to put my name. I did thermal scanning and did ad hoc duties. Went to check tables for the luncheon and blah blah blah.

June 25th 2009:
The last day of SIWW, had a rather busy day due to the fact that I slacked for the previous day. Exchanged all those email accounts.

Thanks to Matthew, Shirline, and colleagues like Paulyna, Fish, Ray and Liying.

Holidays

2009-06-15T23:55:00.003+08:00

Holidays had just started. And to kick off it, I forgot to attend Monday choir practice again.
*Applause*
Second time in a row. How fun is that?

Had International Water Week training during the last two days of lat week. The Service training is quite enriching. Looking forward to the event itself although it burns out my last week of holidays and an allowance of $3.50 an hour.

Will be going to 4e4 BBQ tomorrow. Hope it will be fun.

Test week over!

Week in review:

TEST TEST AND TEST
Well, Law test was more or less expected...
Construction test was screwed up...
Decorations test was unexpectedly easier than I thought.

Choir is still as superb as before, BUT I forgot to attend choir practice today, pratically FORGET after serving CIP at St Luke's Eldercare at Hougang. Went to Cotton On and went straight home, how fun is that?

I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze, but I, I think maybe it's both. Maybe both is happening at the same time.

Test Week

Its week 6 already. One more week to term test.
Pressure piling? No. I don't feel the pressure and thats bad.

Term break won't be like one, working at Giant for a week and another week of commitment for International Water Week. Topping it will be SPGG preparations.

525600 minutes. How do you measure, measure a year?

SP Choir

2009-05-18T10:07:00.002+08:00

SP Choir is a revelation to what singing is.
There are two sections to singing for SP Choir, Comtemporary Acapella and Choral Music.
Got one guy actually sang IL Divo's song. (To the fact that I have been playing them every week when I sell CDs at Ikea there.)
Their Acapella performance was nice and also for their Choral Music.
Sang Shima e, which is like so reminiscing of the 2007 SYF.

How I wish I can take photos like this.
SP had a CCA recruitment drive last week, went to sign up for photography club, but I can't afford a DSLR and although they say its not a must, but a dummy camera can't do much.

Went to sign up for choir too, I didn't lose my passion for singing, or rather one reason would be I don't have to courage to join CCAs that are out of my comfort zone.
Some in the class are joining Muay Thai, rock climbing and scuba diving.

School's isn't as great as it seems.

ECP Trip

2009-05-02T11:20:00.003+08:00

Went to ECP for seafood with my cousins and uncle yesterday on Labour Day.

The week isn't as great as it seems.

Pressure

2009-04-27T20:29:00.004+08:00

Pressure starting to seep in.
Complacency shall not be allowed!

Its the second week of school, but the class haven't go to serious mode yet.
Theres still a lot of undue assignments. Hope that I can cope more comfortably as time goes by.

Seems like I can't click with my class today. Don't know why? I also don't.

Choir SYF 2009

2009-04-24T20:23:00.003+08:00

Well, we got a bronze. Considering that we changed from a SATB choir to a SSA choir, its quite a feat actually.

Well done Haisingers!

For the Sec 3s and 4s, this will be your last SYF in your secondary school life, as for the Sec 1s and 2s, its up to you all to bring the choir to greater heights in the next SYF.

Especially for the Sec 4s, put the choir behind and start chionging for O Levels.

As a senior, I really feel proud of you all.
Jiayous HAISINGERS!

4e4 Gathering

2009-04-11T01:31:00.004+08:00

Today's 4e4 gathering is such a successful one. Almost everyone turned up.
Hoechin's house is big without doubt and it was really good with pool table.
I really don't know how to describe, but well its still fun.

Won't be going for BE post camp activity tomorrow since its getting so late now.
Uncertainties stil lies ahead and I don't deny that I have this fear of facing them.

I still feel weird when I see you.

Disappointment

2009-04-10T01:31:00.007+08:00

Shall resume food posting next time.
Suddenly got the urge to blog so here I am.

School's gonna start soon. Time to meet new classmates and course mates.
50 min ride to Dover everyday. Hope I'll be able to tahan it for the next 3 years.
I totally have no idea which CCA to join or am I going to join a CCA or not.
Got my laptop a few days back. A Lenovo Thinkpad R400.

Will be going for 4e4 gathering tomorrow at Hoe Chin's house, hope it will be fun.

Sorry 2e2 peeps for not arranging any gathering as I really can't have a date that accomodate everyone.

I can't help it to be disappointed today. Our meetup was cancelled due to the rain. Fuck it. Maybe its a blessing in disguise.

BE FOC 09/10

2009-03-30T14:46:00.005+08:00

BE FOC IS F***KING CRAZY MAN.
P/S I DON'T WRITE EXPLICITS AND I SWEAR THIS IS THE FIRST CAMP THAT YOU CAN SWEAR AND CURSE WITH VULGARITIES.

LOL.

If you think poly camps are the same as you UG camps or those OBS camp, you are FREAKING WRONG.

Evidence:

ARH HURH. Really freaking different right?
Let me ask you a question. What is Muthu's Curry+ Watermelon skin+ Flour+ Detergent+ Leftover Bee Hoon from yesterday+ WATER
Mixed by people's feet and find poker cards if not the forfeit is doing sit up and rolling up and down on them.
First reaction by sam and tricia, EWWWWWWWWWWW!~~~~~~

1st day:
I shall start the posting right now.
Reached school on time, played ice-breakers that I usually played with primary school kids during SLC. Like "fire hunter earthquake" that kind.
Then got into our respective groups.

My group RONALD consists of:
Girls: Wenxin, Gemina, Cynthia and Candice
Guys: ME!, Weize, Fariz and Alif
GLs: Mus and Shermaine

Then in the afternoon played station games in school.

And the prelude to the disco party at night is *secret*. LOL.

2nd day:
ST JOHN'S ISLAND HERE WE COME!
We walked under the freaking scorching sun from Marina Bay Station all the way to Marina South Jetty. Its took us like more then half an hour lah, with all our barang barang. When it will only take us 5 min on the bus.

The lunch arh, SPEECHLESS. It looks and smells like normal school fried rice. But once you taste it, you will never want to makan fried rice again. *Exaggerating cause I just makan it yesterday*
Its so sticky that the seniors said it taste like Lo Mai Gai and they use their hands to make it into Petronas Twin Towers. YUCKS!

Then after lunch is games like "Fruit basket" and "Item hunt"
This is what we did for item hunt.
Credit card= Money + Card
And things like this.
But got one cannot do this way one. MASKING TAPE FULL OF LEG HAIR.
Lucky the one that the senior hold is the plastic kind, cannot stick. In the end get a small piece of the normal masking tape. THERE GOES MY LEG HAIR):

After dinner which is slightly better, its time for some WASHING UP!
We were blindfolded for a "SURPRISE" for a senior's birthday, and there comes stupid things.
The seniors would talk to you in that kind of squeaky voice which I can also do and like paint you in the first, put shampoo on you and spray water.
Next they ask us to sit in a canvas sheet full of detergent and WASH US!
Before this I was with this guy, he keep talking lots of cock then in the end, one senior stuffed grass into his mouth. Lucky mine only put on my hair.
Finally its over, while we go and bathe.

NEXT! MORE TO COME. EMPTY WALK
This is one walk certainly to remember for life.
The first station cos my group got 13 people so one must solo, then I stupid garang go solo, in the end all 3 stations I go SOLO!
It is so freaking scary that I really pei fu them can make it so successful.
Shan't elaborate liao, And one thing that will make me remember this is I chipped off one part of my tooth. RAH!

3rd day:
Played station games, that one still alright.
Cos we missed the muthu curry's part.
We also got joint second for points lah.
We had to bid food with our points.
After dinner we had telematch, put detergent on the canvas sheet ask us to slide down then makan one whole watermelon when our hands are full of detergent, then still force us eat chocolate caramel sweet with the watermelon in our mouth.

After which is the SAUCEPOOL, which is what I said up there lah.
The reason they say why they did this to us is we waste food. They say "WHY I SEE WHITE PARTS LEFT IN TO WATERMELON?" Wah piang eh. Then must play dog and bone with poker cards in the saucepool. If not do forfeit.

LAST DAY:
I think type too much le, Got dismissed at 6 plus after lots of pictures in SP.

2009-02-03T00:13:00.010+08:00

Junior College starts today.
New friends, new classmates and new teachers (lecturers) awaits in a totally unknown environment.
Not for me till April.
Going to Singapore Polytechnic, Integrated Events and Project Management.
Only a handful of Haisian going SP. ( Yes, a handful, I can't even use all my ten fingers)

Had a gathering with the 2e2 peeps again to Sentosa 2 days ago.
Liangying, Zhilin, Szehwei, Cheryl, Jiankhai, Fabian, Derek, John,Nigel and jiasen.
Got myself baked like a lobster, Liangying had the most severe burn I guessed.

Guess its time for a new beginning, as friends move on to JC.
A new beginning for them and hope it can be a new beginning for me too.
Being not-so over concerned over friends may be a better for me.
So, I've got myself a new email, pinyi@live.com.sg.
Its more formal than the previous one, so feel free to delete the planetyi1992@hotmail.com contact.

Today is the third day of Lunar New Year le, seems like a lot of people is finally getting a rest from the hectic schedule of bai nian .
I'm quite 清闲 as I don't go bai nian like most of you all do, I only went to both sides of grandparents' house where both families will be there to exchange greetings.

Random:
Economic issues are worrying and it should reflect in a lot of people's ang bao money?
Lucky mine past years very low liao, this year drop might as well don't give ang bao.
Hope that Barack Obama will really be the change that America need and solve the economic crisis soon.

Some how I cannot blog lengthy posts like how liting does and how I used to.
Till then.

新年快乐！
Pictures taken up there are during the Chinatown trip last year with the class.

A brand new lunar year ahead.
Had reunion dinner yesterday, the usual fanfare of steamboat with father's side family.
Later going there again for 初一拜年。

在此祝愿各位读者，
心想事成，万事如意。

2e2 Chalet 2009

2009-01-23T20:30:00.003+08:00

2e2 chalet is quite a success I guessed.
5D4N chalet is the first time for me and its really tiring.

The bungalow was so big that I was awed by it when I first reached there.
There is like 3 rooms and a big karaoke room which we K for like half of the time in the chalet.
Watched the sunrise 3 times during this few nights.

Cooked several meals during the stay, ranging from chicken curry, satay with egg and even carbonara.
Late night supper, chatting and the cooking will be forever remembered.

Thanks to all who attended this chalet.
Sze Hwei for booking the chalet, and all those who helped in cleaning up and also in the kitchen.

All the best to 2e2 peeps while all of us proceed to tertiary institutions.

P/S Thanks Regina, but which Regina are you? The choir one?

Blogging

2009-01-18T22:28:00.002+08:00

Will be going for 2e2 chalet tomorrow.
Running out of ideas to blog nowadays.
A lot of people quitted blogging, active bloggers are rare this days.

My grandpa was admitted to CGH, hope he will be alright soon.
Hope that Alzheimer Disease will find a cure soon, although it seems distant.
Alzheimer really looks scary.

2009-01-16T19:53:00.002+08:00

Finally put in those choices for JAE yesterday.
First choice is Integrated Events and Projects Management in SP followed by Tourism Management in TP and SP respectively.
Should be able to get in my first choice I guess.

I'm back.

2009-01-14T18:00:00.001+08:00

This was a picture that I took at a swamp in Malaysia at the start of this year.

Got back O Level result 2 days back.
No failures but also not very good results compared to the others.
I finally passed my A Maths for goodness sake. Although its a C6 but at least I didn't gave up.
Was quite disappointed with my sciences but oh wells, its over anyway.
Got grades from A1 all the way to C6.
Congratulations to those who scored great results like Liangying, Xiu Zhen, Kevin, Junliang, Wai Khee, Fabian, Regina, Zhilin, Szehwei, Joelin, Priscilla and the list goes on and on.

Going to fill up the JAE form by tomorrow.
Gonna go for SP Events management course or TP Tourism courses.
Hope can get into my choices.
As for those going to JC, All the best for posting and start of school soon.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

2009 has finally come.
Will be getting O level results at the start of the year and the thoughts of tertiary education seems appalling.
2008 has been such a harsh year in whole to a lot of people.

Will be posting tomorrow to look back the events of 2008.

Update:
Back, 2008 is quite a miserable year, the run up to O Levels is disappointing.
Shouldn't be able to do well in this national examinations.

Review of the year:
Jan-March:
The start of the year was like orientation and stuff.
Got back O Level Chinese results.
Zhilin said I was a happier person at that time. Really?
Things were never the same.

April-June:
Had motivational talk, its exhilarating to be looking forward to O Levels at the period of time but gradually lost steam in studying.
Vice head Prefect Election as undergoing at that period of time.
Glad to be passing on the Exco duties to the new batch.
Jasmine went on to be the Head Prefect.
All the people in the class is chionging for their Chinese O Levels at that time.
Chinese frenzy continued for like a month or so.

July-September:
CCA commendation day and Combined leadership investiture.
Finally got my fair share of recognition from the school on this day. Got that small little plaque.
Officially signify the stepping down from both leadership roles, Choir and Prefects.
Combined Leadership Farewell Night too.
Went to watch the first F1 night race practice session. Quite a nice experience.
And the disastrous Preliminary Examinations.

October-December
Countdown towards O Levels and the examinations itself.
Quite disappointed with myself.
Didn't have a change in my lifestyle during the examinations.
Had a oh-so-boring birthday.
The days after examinations are boring.
Since I'm not working well because of my terrible blister infection.
Had class chalet at Sentosa.
Prefects BBQ.
And well of course the unforgettable Prom Night.
Had movies with the 2e2 and also a gathering with them.
Caroling did not materialised.

Guess this is the whole sum up of the year 2008.

Pinyi.

Christmas.

2008-12-30T23:25:00.003+08:00

Just another Christmas this year, with lesser presents and scaled down dinner?
This year's family gathering is on Christmas itself instead of Christmas eve.
Thanks to everyone with those seasonal greetings and all.

Went to Jiasen's house to watch Boxing Day soccer matches, watched 3 matches in a row and stayed over.
Thanks for the 招待 at your house.

Went to Victoria's renovated house after that to help her with her work.

Evidence of doing work.
Btw the rabbit is her P6 art assignment.

Till then.

Christmas Is Coming!

2008-12-22T23:18:00.004+08:00

Didn't go out at all this few days.
Christmas is coming and the festive atmosphere is great.
The homes still didn't reply, so guess the caroling will be canceled?
Unless anyone want us to go to your party to carol.

Last notice. Anyone wants upper sec textbooks like SS?
I'll have to keep Mathematics stuff.

What Happened This Few Days?

2008-12-17T19:13:00.005+08:00

Went for Caroling practice at Daryl's house yesterday.
And our choir has the name "Concordia Chorale"
Concordia means harmony in Latin.
Just learnt the Ukrainian Carol and First Noel.
Hope that we could get at least one old folk's home to reply us regarding a caroling session.
Anyone who wish Concordia Chorale to spread the Christmas joy at your house during the 12 days of Christmas. Feel free to drop me an sms or tag me.

Went out for so many times from last week.
"Bolt" was nice while "The Day That Earth Stood Still" isn't that good I guess.
Friday, went to Kbox with Sze Ern, Xiu Zhen, Clive and Joelin. Had quite a great time over there.
Then watched Bolt with 2e2 peeps like Fabian, Ethel, Zhilin, Szehwei, Jian Khai and John Chen.
After Bolt at Ehub!, we took 17 to Bedok for dinner , it was sumptous and its cheap.
Spent like only $7 bucks, also managed to celebrate Szehwei's birthday.

Sunday, went to Temasek Symphonic Band Concert in which Jianjun was invited to play with them. The concert was really nice.
Went to Bedok town centre for dinner after the concert with Jianjun, Tricia, Valentina, Sean, Elizaberth.

Monday went to watch "The Day That Earth Stood Still" with Vannesa, Liting, Fabian, Nigel, Derek, Jiasen and Jiankhai at Cineleisure. Dinner-ed at Takashimaya before going to Marina Square for Starbucks and "networking" at the cafe.

For those who don't know. If you are using Internet Explorer, the tagboard and links will be all the way down the page. If you are a user of Mozilla firefox, it should be alright.

And for those Sec 3s and 4s who need textbooks except maths, you may drop me a tag or message. Priority given to those who are less well off.

Infection

2008-12-08T21:59:00.003+08:00

A picture that I took from Swissotel 41th floor. Mr Lua booked the room during Prom night and he brought me and Jianjun up to take photos of the breathtaking scenery of Singapore skyline at night.

My bacteria infection on my feet has been better but it seems to spread to the other feet and the antibiotics had invoked hives on my hands. May take a longer time to recover now.

67th anniversary of Attack on Pearl Harbour

2008-12-07T20:12:00.003+08:00

Today is the 67th anniversary of Attack on Pearl Harbour. The above picture depicts the Normandy landings that starts the liberation of Europe, soldiers run towards the beach which was stationed with machine guns. As the title spells, "Taxis to Hell–and Back–Into the Jaws of Death"

Had several events over the two weeks after O Level ends. First to start is 4e4 chalet at Sentosa, followed by Prefects BBQ the next day and then is Prom. Prom photos are below.

Life is like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're gonna get.

Its been a week since I blogged.
Having 4E4 class chalet tomorrow at Sentosa, hope it will be fun.

To ask a person to describe love is like asking a person to describe the taste of water.

Finally, written papers for Os are over.
Feeling aimless now.
I didn't change any part of my lifestyle during this course of O Levels.

I've got nothing to look forward to, I still used the computer, played and surfed the net all this while.
I'll just revert back to the old self staring at the computer again after Os.

Sadded.

Sometimes it feels like we've run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You'll start my heart again
When I come along

Physics was a total disaster.
E Maths tomorrow.

Cause there's a thousand lights
that'll make you feel brand new,
But if you ever lose your way,
I'll leave one on for you.

E Maths Paper One and A Maths Paper Two tomorrow.
I will just get it over and done with for A Maths but most likely will still fail I supposed.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?

One more day to Chemistry paper.
Can't get into the mood of it.
Now I am here staring at the computer.

Thanks Jermain for the tag.
I will do my best for O Levels.

Seems like I am contradicting myself by sitting in front of the computer right now.

In these ever-changing days,
You're the one thing that remains.
I could stay like this forever.

Is this what people call freezing time ?

O Level in another 3 days time.

Come out of the circle of time
And into the circle of love.

O Levels in another 7 days.
Will it keep swirling and eventually reach infinity like in the picture?

Just hope that O levels will be a breeze to everyone.

Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

2008-10-06T19:06:00.002+08:00

Yes Yunhan ? Don't think I've mixed up the IP address I supposed.
Thanks for your concern about my love life which is non-existent at all.

14 days more.

2008-10-04T18:10:00.002+08:00

Where is the motivation?

16 days to the day of infamy.

I was waiting
For the day you'd come around.
I was chasing,
But nothing was all I found.
From the moment you came into my life,
You showed me what's right.

2008-09-30T21:11:00.003+08:00

Tomorrow is Children's Day and Hari Raya Puasa. So here I wish all children and those young at heart a Happy Children's Day and all Muslims friends a Selamat Hari Raya Puasa.

All the best to all who lives the best of their lives now.
So many people seems to be happy with what is going on as things went their ways.
But thats not the case for me.
In studies and everything too.

13 points.
So near yet so far.

As an abstract concept, love usually refers to a deep, ineffable feeling of tenderly caring for another person.

2008-09-26T22:28:00.004+08:00

In the above video which I uploaded is the scaled down version.
The cars will appear at the first 3 seconds and the last 5 seconds.

Went to watch the F1 Grand Prix Practice Session last night.
The sound was great and the experience was special although its not the actual race.
More pictures will be uploaded when I scale then down.

2008-09-25T20:49:00.002+08:00

Just another day passed.
Had English "Group tuition" with Mr Sheun today for like 4 hours,

Tomorrow will be the practise session for the Singtel Grand Prix.

Now there's a million reasons for you to go
But if you can find a reason to stay

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around

2008-09-24T17:06:00.002+08:00

Got back Higher Chinese. Satisfactory but there is room for improvement.
Walked back home out of boredom.

Is it really
Just another crush

2008-09-23T22:19:00.001+08:00

Prelims got worse, L1R4 a pathetic 20.

Events management needs a thirteen.

If there are any reader, there is a tagboard either at the side, or at the bottom. Depending on your browser.

Are you holding back
Like the way I do
But I know this crush
Ain't goin' away

2008-09-21T00:22:00.002+08:00

A useless weekend as usual, ran a short fever in the morning and afternoon.

Here's what I conclude
All I really need is you

2008-09-19T23:23:00.002+08:00

Demoralising results for the Preliminary Examinations this round.

You alone can make my song take flight
And I don't wanna miss a thing

2008-09-17T20:51:00.003+08:00

Got back a few papers today.
History paper was far from what I expected. 30/50
E Maths and Physics Paper One too.

Feeling like I'm heading for a breakdown.
And I don't know why.

2008-09-15T22:32:00.002+08:00

Had the last paper today.
Tomorrow is a rest day for most of the graduating students.

Thanks Clive for his zao dai in the afternoon when me and Jingjie went to his house.

I had a lot to say was thinking all my time away
I missed you and things weren't the same
Cause everything inside it never comes out right
