Spent sunday night together with the long lost dada ! Went to her workplace and waited her to finish work . She give me a receipt and we played some lucky draw and i got myself 2 $50 voucher on some diamonds shop .

We decided to go back to hougang for dinner as she's getting sick of the food at Cathey and PS . Before we took the train , i went to action city and bought a mug for my beloved GinA mei ! In the end , i bought another one for dada since it has been so long i seen her . She's really fickle minded about choosing the mug . Stand inside for like half an hour to choose on mug LOL !

Although dinner at hougang mall was only at the foodcourt , i enjoyed it and really did some catching up together . Hope that there are more chances to meet up ok dada ! =D

The mug for GinA !

The vouchers !

School ended pretty early on friday and i accompany GinA to some job interview in town . At the company which is located at Shaw House , there's a cute little cow soft toy that make her go crazy over . But its really cute LOL .

Shop around town to kill some time and saw shirley and eugenie at PS . Feel so good to see them as the last time i saw them was at PolyForum chalet .

Dinner was at Bedok85 with stinyray , lala , kangkong , barchormee . It's heavenly ! Haha , should go there often with more friends to enjoy and catch up !

O levels are coming soon , so good luck to those who are having 'O's . =)

School is starting tomorrow and its time to sleep early . Its like hell when im with books and teachers but it will be fun with my friends . =D

Timetable sucks with 30hours of lesson per week and without CDS . Im going to argue for one although the chances are low but i wanna clear my CDS fast . Im really not in the mood for school tomorrow . Hope it will goes on smoothly .

Family

When you think of your family, what emotions do you feel ? We all feel different emotions, whether it is love , affection , sorrow , resentment , anger , tension , grief , appreciation , or just confusion . One thing we all have in common is that the word family will cause us to feel some emotion .

Our parents were the happiest people when the moment we step onto this world . The joy of theirs can never be represented by words or numbers . They fed us when we cannot eat on our own . They taught us how to stand and walk . They taught us how to speak . They taught us what is right and wrong . They work so hard to give us everything that we wanted . They sacrifice their time for us .

But when they grow older in their teens , why are they complaining about their families . Why would they say that their parents dont even understand them abit and give them what they wanted . Why they blame their parents for being poor and cannot give those stuffs that the rich kids get . Why do they hated their parents . Why ..

When i step onto this world , im not in a rich nor poor family . Everything was so sweet until i went to primary school , when i finally get scolding and caning from my dear parents . There were once i was dragged to the park near my house and cane in front of everyone that passes by . From the moment onwards , i hated my dad . We never can communicate , and we will only quarrel when we talk to each other . I never think that much . My mum is the only person i can talk to that time .

Just this year , my dad got the last stage of nose cancer . The operation saved him . While we are in his room , he look into me and trying to speak but he cant . I tear-ed . The amount of tears that rolled down my cheeks were countless . From that day onwards , i promise myself to love my family before i lose them . After he was being discharged from the hospital , our family are more bonded together . But sometimes i will still have problems talking to my dad .

Recently , i was having so much stress for my paper and i decided to talk to my dad . At first , i apologised for calling and tell them that im not coming back to sleep the day before . He kinda scolded me and walked away . That was the time when i cried so desperatly , looking for shoulders . He looked back and sit down . Mum came out and we talk together . I poured everything out just to wanna know what they are thinking as my parents . My mum and dad shedded tears while looking at me . They encouraged me that night and my dad told me something . This was what my dad said : " Since when i never give you the thing you wanted . Since when i ever say a single NO . " . I knew i was in the wrong for being so demanding and said they never loved me . But now , i can see how they loved me by the words and action they did . I never regretted shedding those tears .

Parents are the first and the last to ever love us . Do not ever think that they dont understand us . Do not ever think they do not care for us . But do cherish the family you have now and live without regrets .

Why assume ?

Why make unnecessary assumption ?

Once , i told my friend not to assume because making pointless assumption make me lost alot friends in school . I dont wan anything like these to happen again , and of cos not to me again . She's thankful for the advice and im glad too . But due to another unnecessary assumption , we lost each other .

Bear this in mind , dont make any unnecessary assumption . Get the truth is better than assuming and regret it later .

Li : If ure asking how important you are , i can tell you that no words and numbers can ever represent how important you are in my life .

Until I found you there was no me
just a soul lost at sea

Until I found you I knew not love
you were sent to me from above

Until I found you my heart was broken
healed with the words you have spoken

Until I found you I would have never known
that love should always be shown

Until I found you there was no me
until I found you

Memories

Have you ever heard a song from long ago with so many memories tied to it that it made you cry ? And didn't you wish that you could go back into that time when everything seemed so much simpler and carefree ? Those are the songs that are the soundtracks of our lives ; the ones that bring back childhood memories , best friends , first loves , first heartbreaks , the memories .

Our life are filled with memories . The sweet memories make us smile when we think of it , we do not remember the days , we remember moments . Our road in life isnt straight , we do have ups and downs . Unless we remember we cannot understand . We do not forget the memories that are bitter , those parts make us to move on without making the same mistake again . We understand them to be a better person in life for yourself , your family and your fellow friends .As im moving forward in my life , memories keep coming .

I had a very sweet memory of a girl , when i get to know her online and meet her at plaza singapura after a while . I remember that time was my poly holidays .For 2 months , we have been going out everyweek for at least 2 times . Our fav. hangout will be at Heartland mall , Town , Marina Square and not forgetting our LJS . Everytime we go out , we had so much fun drinking bubbletea at heartland mall , eat long john silver together at anywhere we go . The days we shop together , the bubbletea we drank , the LJS we ate is full of memories on my life . All these ended in just 2 months , quarrel happen and we last met was the place we first met . Although we are not in contact now , but somehow i still wish we do can go back to the past like what we always do . These memories will never be erase from my heart .My Message : You can close your eyes to reality but not to memories.

Apart from me , i remember someone telling me about his memories with a girl . Although they are moving on , on the different way , i can see how much my friend is holding onto the memories they had together . But the girl broke her heart by saying to him ; " I want to forget these memories as they bring me too much misery " . Upon hearing this , i was wondering , are memories that easy to be erased ? No matter what , it will just stay in your heart and going on with your life . I just wanna prove that memories will never be erase from your minds and memories . Instead of saying they bring pain to you , why not think about how it bring the smile to you .

The Guy Message : It takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but an entire life to forget them.

Memories may escape the action of the will, may sleep a long time, but when stirred by the right influence, though that influence be light as a shadow, they flash into full stature and life with everything in place . Lets us move on together with our memories in life , facing each with a little smile . Starting now , keep every memories of yours tight in your heart .

Regrets In Life

When one door closes , another opens ; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us .

Thinking back the years , did we regretted anything ; did we live with regrets all these years . I believes for most people , they do regrets to things that they had done or said to themselves or to others . Sometimes , its good to turn back and see your regrets and make sure we have the right regrets . I would rather regret the things I have done than the things that I haven't . Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets .

Although i live happily , but like most people i do have regrets in my life . I truely regret the sentence i told my mum while we are arguing .
" My friends are far more better than this kind of family " .
Upon the sentence end , i look up and i saw my mum in tears . From the moment onwards , i really regretted saying that sentence to hurt my mum . I know i had hurt her but i sincerely apologise from my heart to her . I hope she will understand me .

Another action that i had regretted is stepping into the gamers world . When i started gaming at 12 , i could not stop . I did not stop gaming even until now and i was a hardcore professional gamer from age 15 - 17 . This had seriously cause me to fail my O lvl and i had to even retake it . I stop as a hardcore gamer after i failed my Os and i reduce the hours i spend on computer games from 18hours per day to 8hours or less per day . But still , i cant stop gamer even until now when i failed my Poly subjects . I will eventually end up in Poly Year 4 .

As we can see , life is really full of regrets . Lets think before we do something or say something . Do something that we wont disappoint ourselves . Follow your heart and end up with no regrets .

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do . So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour . Catch the trade winds in your sails . Explore . Dream . Discover .

Compaq AMD Pro-Gaming League ( CAPL ) Autumn Season Week 1 Player list is out . We have been playing DotA for all this while but we have taken part in Counter Strike this season instead . Its really kinda no link and our team is trying very hard to train cause we dont have any experience in competiton as well . Here are the list of teams ;

7evenNinjas.
SeKreT
Team Cube
eK.jSu
eK.cTx
MJK
Team.ReacXioN
Ehnma
x C e l
WwF.Minor
e.infiltration
Kaize
Team [R]
insurrectioN
Adverse.Gamin9!
Project.Sync

I was so shocked to see the list , cause there are so many good teams that i heard before . Those better ones are those that are in bold . Bad news keep coming the way , just a while ago , our last player might not be able to play cause of personal reason and we do not have our last player now . The rest of us were kinda upset and this might end our team in competition without giving a fight at all .

Good Luck Have Fun Team [ x C e l ] !

Friendship

Thinking back since you had your first friend in life , and thinking of all the friends you make since the first . How many did you ever treasure ? How many did you ever give them up ?

Ask yourself if you can ever remember who is your first ever friend made . There will be 99% of people that wont remember . Im of course in the 99% but we can cover that up by saying we are still young at age and we dont know what are we doing . But what about now ? How many friends had we gave up since we know what we are doing .

Lets make primary school as the starting point for friends . I started making friends in primary school , secondary school , polytechnics or even others . Even until this point in time , im still in contact with some of my primary school mates . Throughout all these times , i gave up friends and friends gave me up before . But what we can do now , is to understand them . We make friends because of who they are and not who are they . We have to accept them regardless of their good or bad .

I had few friends leaving my life recently regardless of how much i treasure them . I tried to hold on to them but they make their own choices . It's really sad to have someone leaving you . But still , we had to continue with life . Just like all the new friends i made from Polytechnic Forum 2006 recently . Im sure that we will treasure each another and be there for each when needed . More friends Less foe . Lets start by treasuring our friends .

To my friends ;

Even though, I cannot ease your aching heart,
Nor take away your pain.
Please let me stay and hold your hand,
And I'll walk with you on this day!
I'll lend an ear when you need to talk;
I'll wipe away the tears.
I'll share your worries when they come;
I'll help you face your fears.
I'm here and will walk with you
Over the hills you have to climb.
So, take my hand; let's face the world,
Live each day- one day at a time!
You're not alone, for I am here,
I'll go that extra step.
And when your burden is easier,
I'll help you find your smile!

Polytechnic Forum 2006 ended on 21th September .
Great thanks to Alvin Ting for inviting me to go and I had seriously never regretted going for PolyForum . I was kinda upset when i saw the date of my sup papers .
It was in the 22nd . I had to go back home on Wednesday night . That means
i can go for 3 days and i must really enjoy the 3 days i had .

I will try to post more pictures in the next few posts and pictures speak a thousand words .

This night is one of the best night in my life . It's really fun with all of us playing and taking pictures . Our group went up and sang ' Gonna change the world ' by S Club 7 . After the 8 dishes , lotsa pictures were taken . Seriously , i feel like a super idol that night . You will get that i mean if u scroll down to see the pictures . Alot people wanna take picture with me ! It was so great .

Great times end fast and soon . It was already midnight after a chat at Mac . It was time for me to go home , and my group send me off to take a cab . I was touched and sad to leave the chalet too . Hope to see you guys soon !

We check into the room at 2pm and changed into our formal for the arrival of Guest-of-Honour Mr. Gam Kim Yong , Minister of State for Education . Day was fun with alot photo takings and we ended the day by going to the girls room to play games and chitchated .

Polytechnic ForumDay 2 ( 19th Sep )

Woke up in the morning and was kinda sad and depressed when i checked my sup paper dates . It falls on 22th and that means i had to go back on the 3rd day in order to finish my revision .
Alright , now Day 2 is spent at Chinatown . We had our polyforum amazing race to understand the culture for different races . It's a good event anyway and we learn how to eat using our hands . We are fully fed each day cause we are having buffet style for breakfast until dinner . Subtheme 5 had our own mini BBQ on the 2nd night . Stealing food was great hahaa .

Dreams ; Ambition ; Cherish

Question like ' What do we want to do when we grow up ? ' has been in most of our minds . Since young we are being asked by our parents or teachers but did we actually ever gave a deep thought of what's ur ambition .

I believe as we grow up , we will eventually get the idea of what we truely want to do . Our ambition , our dreams . People study in Polytechnics to get skills and get into the working society but its proven that 80% of the Poly Grad. did not have a desire course they wanted .

Im one of the 80% . Im stuck in a course which does not even interest me abit but i have to continue in order to get closer to my dream . Do not be afraid to tell people about your ambition . Many people laugh at me when i said i want to be a professional hairstylist but i never care about how people think . Just follow our heart and reach it . Using the skills i learn in Poly and work for a few years , eventually with the pay i can sign up for the desire course i wanted . Life is about moving on and learning more .

Don't let go of your dreams. If you have determination and belief in your dreams, you will succeed in spite of your desire to let go .

When we are moving in with life , did friends around you cherish you ?
Just tonight , its already the best night . I really understand the word 'cherish' . When u hear your friend said you did a part and have a place in their life , life is really worth living . I will really cherish a person like you . Just a promise for u i wont forget .
