Pumping hours in college library

Ok... firstly... I have no accounting background. Secondly... I don't understand the greek in the reference books... I spent the whole day in the library today!!! 2 + 3.5 = 5.5 hours in the freaking library doing accounts... My total tally for the week... 9 hours... of accounts... Crazy subject la... Achievement... comprehension and a sense of satisfaction as i successfully got my figures correct! (fuuhhhh!) Accounts, accounts... But I had my fair share of fun... as i pumped another 4 hours into dota yesterday as i broke fast from dota... a fast that lasted 5 days... It seriously got my screws tightened again... I fought back a fever i suffered for a day on Monday... It has been real physically and mentally demanding... the work, the fever, the stress... hmmm....

Star Wars was fun... Although at certain points of the movie I hoped that that Anakin could fight off the Sith... But it just have to be that way, him turning into the darkside... Aye... It's amazing what movies can do to you eh... I saw Super Sized Me on vcd on last Saturday and it successfully got my point of view changed... McDonald's would be loosing slightly on me... as I try to cut down... But what difference does it make with our greasy roti canai or char kwey teow...???The world is not a safe place to eat...

I shall return to my hostel cause I have laundry to do... Until next time... indulge in the stresses of life... you'll find pleasure in overcoming it.

Being in power means that I am handled great great responsibility... Very true... it's amazing what movies can teach you eh... heheh... Well... i had to handle 522 bucks for the accounting notes... an amount i've never handled before as a class duty... Thanks Karin for helping me with the notes... I wouldn't make it without your car... :) It's been great studying again.. i feel that i have a stronger urge to study here than back in school... i don't know why though... hmm... Maybe it's because... I'm liking what i study... Hmm...

it was a blast!

Hey people of the mainstream world... i am back... from the greatest experience of my life, National Service... and the best part is... I enjoyed every single moment of it... Every single moment. However i felt that my emotions went numb at the end as I felt ok about leaving my camp... something i didn't really expect myself to be... I used to be... em... more to the emotional side... the sentimental me has gone... or maybe... buried in some other place... However I know that it was real real greatla... I stole some ns merchandise... HEHEH... Naughty me...

Today marks my beginning of another episode in my life... college... College is... ookkaayy... Had a pretty nice orientation... cause i won a great deal of chocolates... ;) But in the morning, they had something like mass call... and the emcees were... -_-" so em... like... chinese in their english conversation... and speech... Reminds me of a great show i once saw... the guy in the yellow boots, pck... aiks...

Well... today begins a great story that i once dreamt of... Joshua boy in now in college... awww...

National Service-- Halftime

Bald! Hope this explains everything...
 

clockwise from me(grey top), ashley, jeremy, jo weng, darren, yao wen

National Service... to me is a great time to enjoy your youth. In the past month and a half i really  had a great time both with friends and the trainers... they are great people to be with except for the bad fruits.... But anyway.... we all have to be tolerant towards each another... Guess that's what the goverment wants us to be.
   Physically i feel healthier.... the training they do is bearable... the starjumps, pumpings on tar paved marching squares, 1 mile runs... every morining it's 5.30 to be up... later than that would result in crazy consequences.... But thankfully it wakes me up after being half-awake through assembly.
   Spiritually (whoa)... i feel that i'm more drawn closer to God... as my level of faith expands through spinning chilling experiences, daily devotion (my most consistant ever) and the truly unexpected miracles...
   Patrioticly... i love my country more as i have a better insight towards the other races of my country... i eat, sleep, bathe with them.... sing their songs... it's not so bad after all to be in this country... the only things now i would not be satisfied would be the education and the car prices of this country... heheh
   I'm currently back because i am a threat to the well being of the camp... i was down with a minor sore eye and they want the infection not to spread... so i'm home today... Pretty cool eh?
   It's been good... the flying fox, the high ropes, the absailing, the watersports, the Melaka trip, the coming trip to the airforce base... it's nice.
   Hopefully you ppl wont see me as some ns fanatic but on a personal stand, i think it's a pretty good experience. I shall return to my 'prison' on Monday... haha... so it's time to do some catching up.... Great to be blogging again.

Be Good!

I shall say goodbye to all... For I shall be going off to Semenyih for National Service. Yea... it starts tomorrow. Pretty much speechless now... but (sighs) I'm sure gonna miss you fellas! Schoolmates, churchmates, cg dudes... jamming ppl... ex jamming ppl... Haha... You guys know who you are...

Today I've got 'forced' to get into UTAR for my education. Dad's pro UTAR... He dislikes Taylors... Haih... what to do? So... the next 5-6 months will be quite a roll for me... National Service then college... Sounds pretty interesting....

Christopher came over for a visit before I go off later today... Quite glad he came though... He took a quater of my Form 6 books... which is good...

Personally, I feel great... with the prospect of National Service on the way... I feel that something big's really gonna happen there... And I really hope... that there WILL be chicks... hahah... But seriously... tomorrow really brings the begining of another short chapter of my life... Not sad to leave my home... but I feel very much hyped up with National Service and all...

I hope you people will have a great time in National Service... Eh... haha.... Have a great time here! For those begining college, all the best... for those who are facing exams... All the best... Be good boys and girls! God bless you all!

All systems go!

Really ready for ns... It's my turn... to serve my country... Tomorrow's my last day... Gotta spend it real wisely. I really don't want to miss anyone... so... I'm trying to wish everyone before i go away. For three months.

Spm results were kinda sucky... Got 6 A's... the rest B's. Darn... there goes my scientific aspirations... I now head towards my first love... arts. Love it if i do mass com. But we'll never really know what we'll end up as in the future eh? But for now... Trying to get into Taylors to start my diploma then head for a degree in USM. Then probably I'll do charted accounting to double the degrees... Dad's a bit pissed cause I'm not totaly following his plan for me... But anyways... It's my career and future we're talking about right?? Anyway.. things are starting to be well.. and hopefully i shall do what i want to do....

Had dinner with Natalie's family today... It's sort of like some farewell thingy for me... Aunty Mimi's a sweet friend to me! Always giving me advise and all... Doing what's best help me... They're true friends... Talking about true friends... Christpher has his straight for SPM which wasn't supprising... Good for u Chris...

Here are my belated birthday greetings to Quin Er and Sing Ping. Hope you girls have a great time ahead! To you people... who are NOT at ns... Consider yourself lucky... Real lucky...

Ok ppl.. Official goodbye's tomorrow... See you then

Calm before the party?

Results are out tomorrow... or in other words 12+ hours from now... In 12+ hours from now, part of my destiny shall be written... and I really truly believe that He wrote it... and it meant to be good for me... So here I am... Believing in the best, here I am... without worry... It amazes me. A lot. Be encouraged, my friends! Don't be anxious! Believe in the best!

woohoo!

As I begin to worry less... because I had my peace sustained... I passed my test! Woohoo! All thanks to God! Great! Now i can drive... But my license comes next week... so... I can't use it yet! Aye! Coz i will be in national service!

Went to Gabriel's to jam and to play basketball... Nice... Going for Dota tmr... haha... Stephen got me a bit the addicted... But anyway... the main message is that I want to tell you people is that... if you honour God... God will honour you... I chose not to bribe.... never will if i were to fail the second time... but, I know that he'sin total control!

All the best to my new friend Nadia for her test next week! Keep staying in control of the clutch... haha...

Passing driving... Getting free books from Wye Lynn... Is this the begining of the good things to come?
