Today was a rather looong day ... CT ended half an hour later and as a result I was late for the first icho training session along with huang pei, jian ting, xing kai and chao tong ><. Well, the first session was simply a 2 and a half hour lecture ... was dying by the 2nd hour but at least I didn't get pawned by the lecture. It sort of refreshed my memory of all the stuff I learnt last yr, so it was rather fruitful (= .

Went for club dinner at curry wok after that, was so damn hungry then (coze I didnt eat lunch) I juz simply ate and didn't really talk to the seniors haha. I just kept asking for more rice and in the end when the people at the other table were about to leave, I was still eating ... Next time there is a club dinner, I should nvr sit beside leslie, or the dishes at that side of the table will just disappear very quickly haha.

As for the 擂台赛, current update is 2 players from the JC side are down and the high school side is still maintaining a perfect record. Haiz, rather shocked that peter is their first player )= ... apparently they really sent their best players, plus they got 外援 --- william from cat high and nicholas from xinmin. 真是的, looks like they are treating this rather seriously, zzzz ....

Jinxiang is our 擂台主, LOL ... It really seems as though the JC side didn't really put in much consideration in the order of our players ... feels as though we are just screwing around. Zixian's number 7, leslie number 8 and I am player number 9. I dun suppose it will have to come down to me since zixian and leslie are before me, would be rather screwed if it does ...

My wednesdays from now on will be rather tiring, but I guess it's all worth it. Nth to do now, guess I shall go do vectors 4 before sleeping. No H3 tmr, damn happy haha.

Yesterday was a long and tiring day. Shall start with the morning bah, well woke up late at 8 plus, zzz, only left home at 9 though that was supposed to be the time my lesson starts, but nvm such things are flexible haha. Laoshi's com broke down again, feel rather sad for him now that he can't play online, which is basically what he does everyday now. Played two matches with him, won one and drew one, well not because he's deproving but because we were testing out a variation and based on the results, tt variation does not work out well for black ...

Well something unprecedented and interesting is gonna happen between the high school side and JC side. It's called the 擂台赛. Basically, each side chooses 10 players and in order of skill rank their players 1 to 10, with 1 being the weakest and 10 the strongest (aka 擂台主). The first player of one side will play the first player of the other side and if one side wins, the winner gets to stay and he will then play the 2nd player from the opponent and this continues until the 擂台主 is defeated. Quite an interesting way to compete, haha. Well Leslie, zx and me would be players 8,9,10, only question is who will be the 擂台主 haha. Quite stressful to be 擂台主, especially when everything comes down to you.

Went to Clementi to cut my hair after that, then went to Orchard to buy birthday present for my friend and as if that wasn't enough, walked to PS with my friend to buy some more presents (though in the end we didn't buy anything -.-" ) It was STJ after that, they were surprisingly on time (referring to senior class only) . Ordered spaghetti again despite the nightmare at fish and cos, it was okay though the cheese made me a bit sick, went to the arcade after that though I didn't play anything coze I was broke after buying a brand new rubik's cube for $10.90.

A point of note, Charles(small) is damn smart, hahaha.

All the stuff that happened after the arcade, well it's rather stupid haha, no point talking about it. There were loads of stars that night though (= .

Haven't touched TIME, and still haven't gotten enough people SL, raaaaahhh, must jia ba jing!!!

Haizz, it's been some time since I posted ... Life's getting really sad and boring these few days. SL's progress been rather stagnant, only managed to get 2 people to help out, thanks Charles and Wayne. Shall press on harder, next target shall be my juniors in high school haha ... 16 more people to recruit, must jiayou ...

Juniors getting back O level results today, hope they do well (= . Heard Charmaine got 9 A1s, hahaha, tt's really great, wonder how the others did ... Hope they all can stay.

Mock Spa Skill C and D for physics tmr, dun feel like studying at all argghh ...

H3 today was well okay ... sort of a revision of chem o stuff, didn't regret taking this H3, at least can consolidate what I have learnt last yr (= . A number of people from HCI's chem o team is in this H3 as well, but I seemed to be the only one who was paying attention. Beside me, jt was listening to his friend's iPod and down the row, one was reading vectors, one writing angel mortal letter and one was sleeping -.- Haha, suppose all this is too easy for them ...

STJ this saturday!!! Yay, really hope it arrives soon ... dying of boredom lately ...

Loads of GP hw, zzzzz, haiz, can nvr seem to finish the hw ... so this is J2, supposedly the most difficult phase of our education.

Really sian now, shall go do vectors 4, at least it is the most interesting of all the hw at the moment ...

Argh, runny nose and infected throat, was at home the whole day damn sian ... Revised integration, but I used most of the day to pack my J1 stuff (=, threw away lots of PW stuff, now the stack of papers is much thinner, feel so proud of myself haha. Missed loads of stuff including my H3 today, haizzz ... what an untimely period to fall sick.

Had a chat with my senior just now, and he actually asked me if I have started preparing for BT1 ?!?! Well, he told me he got his worst results during BT1 in J2, S for physics, that's really scary. Now I am really considering if I want to participate in Char Yong, I really want to play Xin Ma Cup again but I dun want to screw up BT1 as well, RAAAHH, damn vexed now.

Been "volunteered" to be a econs peer tutor, ZZZ. Well, I dun really think my econs is tt good, it was thanks to CA which pulled my grades up. I seriously have no idea how I am going to do this, unlike math peer tutoring, there isn't any questions for both tutor and tutee to prepare or anything. I am going to feel so pissed if they tell me it's all up to me how I want to tutor ...

It's been rather boring without a tagboard, may consider restoring the tagboard.

Orientation campfire was fun, haha, went to eat at Newton food centre after the event with junior class and missed the last train. So it was a "finding a way home" mission after supper with jieying, zixian, weicheng and kah wee. Took us a bit of effort but we managed to find a bus stop with NRs and took NR5 home, it was 2 am when I reached home. lol ...

Went for chess lesson on the same day (well it's technically the same day), played dan ma again, zzz, result was a draw ( ju ju ma draw ju pao), no one could have believed, could have won if I had more time, haizzz. played han loong and william too. Han Loong seemed to be screwing around and william seemed a bit out of touch. Won both matches in less than 20 steps, couldn't believe it ...

Went K-ster after that, haha zixian is our "王力宏". After he sang 花田错 quite well, almost every leehom's song is thrown to him. Was rather low at the start coze I didn't sleep much thanks to campfire but got on pretty well after that. Too bad, had to leave early with zx to collect our prize of the Yishun competition, zzz. 6th prize, haizz, $100 voucher for some mei hua products, quite fei but coach agreed to give us money dollar for dollar in exchange for the voucher (= ...

Finished superposition tutorial, but couldn't do some questions, grrr... havent started studying for maths and physics too and there's still a stupid time tunnel to do. Hmm, wait juz received an sms saying physics test may be postponed!! yeah!! That should make things much easier (= .

Forgoed a money-making opportunity today, could have earned 20 dollars if I went to help beidou play against bai sha dong even if i lose but I can get extra money on top of the 20 dollars if I achieve at least a draw. Well, beidou lost 9-13 according to latest intel, quite surprising but I was informed tt alvin woo, my coach, ling guang hao and kang de rong all nvr play. LOL, no wonder.

My angel has not written to me yet, zzz, if this continues I would expect it's a guy and tt makes it two guys for me, can't be more unlucky haha.

Well, tt's all for now i guess, better go do time tunnel now bye!

Haiz, just came back, gg still got econs to do and havent started studying at all for chem test, zzz ... H3 today sucked, rather a waste of time, there were only 2 meaningful slides on molecular orbital theory, the rest ... just normal A level stuff we have learnt. Hope it gets more interesting ...

Rather tired now dun know if I should study for the test tmr ... even though I did agree that I would jump off the clock tower if clement beats me, haha ... haiya settle econs first bah.

Officially broke again after buying the mortal present, left my $1.60 change at KFC after eating a 3 piece chicken meal. raaahhh ... must keep a watch on my spending habits ...

2 juniors from 08s6c joined CnB, yay! not my division though, one i chess one bridge, but nonetheless better than nothing. CCA orientation was okay, busy trying to 拉客 and entertain people. Xueying came to visit us too, a good and bad thing. Good thing is she helped us to 拉客, bad thing is ... well she's rather intimidating, haha ...

Competition this Sunday but dun think I am going, zzz two tests next week, havent started revising ... haiz week 2 only den so hiong le ... not much time to slack )=

Gotta go bathe and do econs le, signing off now ...

Haizz, missed chess lesson yesterday just so I could do my I and I, zzzzz... it's one of the boring things I ever did. Well, as expected, lessons began almost immediately ever since term started, looks like this year is gonna be much more imba than the last .. Wish I was still J1, )= ...

Checked out the list for our junior class, no one I know of, haizz ... 9 girls 17 boys, quite the opposite from our class. Well this year seems pretty screwed, we have up to 08S6V but only up to 08S7B, dunno why the sudden craze over physics compared to bio. This means a lot of bio classes (from 7C onwards) do not have a junior class and a lot of C1 physics classes do not have a senior class! LOL. Looking forward to angel mortal game, hope I dun get a dao one though.

K box this Saturday, woah again ... my spending habits have become extreme ever since I came to JC. The people going are some J2s and a J3 senior from chess and bridge... Well that's going to be the first fun thing I do in 2008 probably. The venue is somewhere in Chinatown, $10 only lol, among the cheapest you can find in Singapore.

Going for the prize presentation ceremony for the Yishun competition this Saturday as well, 6th is not bad for us I guess, $25 for each of us, not too shabby. Hope it doesn't clash with the K-box though.

Haizz, Zixian and I are pretty troubled about char yong cup this year ... it's during the March hols, to be exact, it will take up two days and THE WEEKEND BEFORE OUR FIRST BLOCK TEST ... Dunno if I should participate ... This is a really hard choice to make, it is our last go at Char Yong cup but I dun want to screw up the first blocks ... ARGHH, studies and chess... which should I pick?? I really want to get top 4 and participate in Xin Ma Cup again ... This year's competition will be really intense as well, to add on to the pressure, Mun Kiat told me that many people will be taking note of my games this year. Will I be able to live up to expectations?

Chem O results out this month, well I am not expecting much ever since the theory paper destroyed me ...

On a brighter note, I am just left with one more exercise for AQ. Got a new iPod classic (= , yay!! 80GB, pawns my shuffle upside down inside out, but can only use it after I get the protective cover though ...
