Exams are finally over. And i already got plans.. Soccer and Chalet tomorrow, Shooting on sunday, Shooting on Monday and RoboGP on tueday onwards. O well, its the start of a busy Holidays.

Phew. 2 days, 2 nights i reached home at 12+, 2 nights i was out drinking starbucks, 2 nights hanging out with the guys, 2 days i studied till i nearly died. haha!

Well yesterdays reason was it was cause we were celebrating Marc’s 20th birthday. Matt, Brainer and I really shocked the whole SME when the lights of the pizza place went out and a cake turned out of no where! Did not even shock marc but almost the whole SME along with it! haha! Yesterdays was also the MCT paper. 1st one of the 3 exams I’m taking and well.. It was quite ok after thinking about it. But i did find it difficult.

Today was a little different. It wasn’t anyone’s birthday or anything. Was with the SME and E2 seniors. Fun bunch of people. Thank god matt turned up after a while if not i would have felt REALLLLLLLYYYYYY weird. haha! At least i survived it! (wow its starting to mean i almost died there) But well.. These 2 days were really fun. Now back to studying!

Ps: I found a XA!!!! But im short of cash!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

18. Finally 18. And how I spent my day? E2matrix Food hunt. Was a damn fun experience. Even though all the SME teams came in 4th, 5th and 6th. Better still. There were 6 teams. Beat that! But never the less it was fun. My team ran almost every where and the 1st person to get cramps was Matthew. Quite laughable actually. When a swear word is heard from matt, his leg cramped!

The rest of the stories just a tad lazy to type so I’ll cut to the chase. Well, the pit stop was at Clark Quay. SME got me a 8GB memory card for my PSP, E2 wrote me a nice letter which was very unexpected. And when I thought everything was settled, a cake came out from behind everyone and bloody hell, really did not expect that!!!!!!!!!!!!! What else? Everyone was singing the birthday song. Everyone, all the participants, helpers, organisers and my fellow SME mates. Damn sweet off all of them. Never knew my birthday was so important to them. Well.. maybe not to some of the helpers and participants but still they just went along with it! haha.

Well, the rest of the story i won’t wanna say but here’s a summary. Clark Quay + Farhan + Guo Bin + big creamy cake + the rest of SME & e2 = ????? Lets see who can do the maths.

ps. WOOHOOO! LEGALISED DRINKING!!!

Well, I just got back from the airport. As some of you already know, my uncle’s family flew off to Sweden for supposedly their last year before coming back to Singapore for good. They were back for about 5 weeks and I really got to say it was damn fast. I keep on thinking that 5 weeks was a long time but when it comes and goes, you wish you didn’t waste your time away.

Damn, 1st time in my life I actually felt sad about my cousin leaving, well actually both of them, the “giant” of my family Ryan and the little peep squeek Jessica who could actually annoy me all the way from Sweden (amazing huh?). But well, this time i really got to say I’m gonna miss them. Ryan who well i think I’m closer to compared to my brother. Why? I’m not so sure. I kinda seem to click better with him. Got to say one of the only people I can actually trust to tell my stories with. haha! and Jessica, the hyper active little rascal who seems to be on red bull 24hrs of the time.

Not surprisingly, the little one cried today before checking in, ran around hugging everyone she possibly knew. Well, some people wants to travel, see the world and everything but well, I’m guessing in both my cousin’s opinions, they rather say home. From what i can remember, they have spent almost half if not more of their lives overseas. Well, sometimes i really envy them being able to have experienced the 4 seasons but well, for all that they had to leave behind family and friends.

Now i kinda regret not spending much time with them. Yes i do try to make an effort to hang out with them but well, I do not think it’s enough compared to the last time they came back. Damn…. O well, nothing i can do about it. At least I found the time to send them off. Thank god I did that.

Ok. I’ve not been updating for a week. Well its mainly due to the reasons that the exams are coming up and I have to study and well, I’m just way to lazy to actually update. So, I’ll try my best to update when i possibly can (or don’t feel lazy).

Not much happened within the week, the usual, wake up, school, home, sleep and repeat. Had 2 tests this week and well another one more next week along with a submission tomorrow which is will be another “uh-oh” or “opps” moment. Wish me luck~

Yesterday, had a BBQ with the family, grandparents, uncle, auntie, cousins, grand uncle, grand aunties etc. Was quite fun. Thank god the rain stopped at 7 and my dad and I could actually start a fire. 1st time starting a fire on my own well with some help from my cousin. yay! Accomplishment! But i think i used a bit too many fire starters. 6 of them! Both my cousins stayed over for the night and all for the sake of playing PSP! haha! Will be quite sad when they fly back to Sweden on Wednesday. 1 more year and they would be back for good! Can’t wait for that.

And finally today. Started of as a totally normal Sunday. Woke up, played with dogs, went to church, went for dinner with parents and went home. But today was a little different. Later on in evening went to meet Geraldine at Bugis so that she could do the public speaking quiz at the library there. Had to bring my computer cause well, it’s an online quiz. Spent a few hours here just by flipping through a book. A bit funny, when I was doing my test she was stressing out while i was totally relaxed. And for hers, she was stressing out even more! haha! Left there around 8ish and ta-pao’ed some food on the way home.

Today was one of the slightly more busy mondays. Woke up, woke my cousin up. Left for school, went to classes. Wished Matt happy birthday, went for class. Hanged at SME and studied a bit, went to meet VC folks, went to the airport to send jojo off and went home. Haha. well not so busy after all.. 😛

Phew. I just got back from sempang bedok. Had dinner there with Josias, Dickson and Nick! Haha! Uber last minute planning. Got a message from dick at about 5pm today and replied him at 645. Cycled down to sempang. Alone and freaking scared that i would loose my way. Haha. Well. I almost did. I made 2 wrong turns, nearly hit 2 people and well after that I reached sempang and met Jojo there 1st. After about 15mins Nick and Dickson arrived on their bikes.

Dickson was riding his brand new (2nd hand) orange santa(sp?) cruz with orange paddles aka agent orange. Haha! Ate there, talked there and chilled there till about 1030? and cycled back with them to tampines before making my way home. Today, I had my 1st kinda major accident on my bike. I hit a curb, got flung from my bike, and fell about 1m away from it. Haha. I’m not hurt or anything. Only some cuts here and there and well, it felt damn fun. The flying part not the falling. The falling hurt. Haha!

Well i got home alive and in one piece. That’s something to be thankful for and well, in cause i don’t meet jojo on Monday.. Bye! Take care!
