January: Crashing MI, Sparks V

Monday, February 26, 2007

I'm going to compile the rest of the January events here! Here goes.

Crashing MI (030107)
One fine Wednesday in the new year, I decided to skip my IS and decided to go for MI's PAE Orientation since I have friends that's posted there (i.e. Fauzi & Randy, and I have friends there anyway).

It was definitely a trip that was worthwhile. (:


Meet my new friends - Jotham, Mabel and Cheryl!

It was really nostalgic when I put my uniform back on. I was already kinda late, and I had to rush down to the new campus!

It was really stupid though, everyone had assembled on the track, and the DM was telling the teachers to pull out everyone who was breaking uniform rules - their parents will be called and they were to be sent home.

So I panicked and I tried to runaway. This teacher caught me, and asked me to go back to my seat when I gave an excuse that I needed the toilet. So I went back, and walked up the other side and hid in the toilet.

Haha, anyway, somewhere along the beginning of the day, I met Linus, some guy who knew me from last year's PAE. He was originally from MI and he quit and is now in SIM. Hohoho.

Then it was the really boring talk in the hall about subject combinations and all that crap. That's when the fun began. We started talking and sat in a circle. We were quite obnoxious really, shouting out random shit and making fun of people.

Marcus, Fauzi and I made an attempt at being twits.

And then it was break. We went down to the canteen and found a place to sit and got some grub. Then I ran into some complications with some teacher. Whatever, and then it was games, and school ended after that. Mmm. Eventful day, I must say. (:


I really miss the MI days - skipping classes, hanging out in town, bitching, camwhoring, drawings, exchanging of uniforms. Heh, but we all have to move on someday (right Rui Ming?).


It was fun being an IJ Boy for a minute.


It was fun being a Barker Boy for a day.


It was fun being in MI for 3 months.

Thanks for the memories.

Sparks V (130107)


The year started out pretty quickly, and before I knew it, the concert day came!

I was quite sceptical about this concert because for some reason, I felt really unprepared. But nonetheless, I gave it my all and it ended on a high note. (:

Here's the repertoire:
The Music Makers - Alfred Reed
Stabat Mater Dolorosa - Masanori Taruya
In The Spring At The Time When Kings Go Off To War - David R. Holsinger
Rhapsody for Concert Band and Jazz Ensemble - Arranged by Sammy Nestico
Star Wars: Concert Selection - Arranged by Toshio Mashima
Hitomi Wo Tojite - Arranged by Endo Yukio
Epilogue (Sax Ensemble) - Toshiyuki Honda
Glenn Miller's Medley (Sax Ensemble) - Arranged by Yasuhiro Koyama
Gospel Medley (Sax Ensemble) - Arranged by Takashi Hoshide
Japanese Graffiti XI - Arranged by Takashi Hoshide
American Graffiti XVI "Oldies" - Arranged by Naohiro Iwai
Tokyo Boogie Woogie (Encore) - Arranged by Endo Yukio

Before we set off for Victoria Concert Hall, we took a lot of photos together.


5/8 of the Saxophone Section


All pumped up and ready to go!


Bleh.


Clement and Farhan.


The Scandalous Jiesheng.

Once we arrived, we wasted no time and begun practising straight away. It was pretty okay, but we just had to make a few adjustments here and there because of the acoustics of the hall. After we finished both halves, the band left (some stayed), and then we practised our Saxophone ensemble pieces.

Gah I was so nervous la, even though it was just us SparksWinds people. Bleh, I don't know why. Mm oh well.

Then we went for break.


After that, we changed, and I went down to meet Putri to pass her Andre's tickets. He was going to be late so I asked her to help me pass them to him. (:


Before the concert started, everyone was wishing everyone good luck for the performance, solos and ensembles. It was quite, exciting, so to say. Haha.


Ahh, this was taken back in December 2003. I miss you guys man. I miss playing in the band with all of you. It's been a pleasure knowing, and playing with each and everyone of you - Serene, Julie, Chun Hui, Liana, Maisarah, May Hui, Kang Wei and all those not in the picture (Yan Qiao, Nisa, Givany, Nadia, Nelita, Joyce, Chee Liong, Haikal & Jurina).

At 7.30pm, the concert started.






It was a great night. It was even better AFTER leaving school. I met Jolene and Carmen outside school, and they joined a group of us that was heading towards McDonalds at Jurong East for supper.

We ended up playing some stupid lame shit game that we just came up with, and it involves money. It's something like truth or dare, but in this game there's only dares, and no truths.. And if you successfully attempt your dare, you win money. If you want your money back, then you gotta do a dare.

It started off with him having to smell my feet. Then I had to help out with the CNY decorations that the people outside of Macs were doing. And it kept going on, winning and losing money. At the end of the night, we got our respective amounts of money back!



**********

Fuck man, I really should've blogged about these events immediately after they've taken place. I really can't remember what else I wanted to say, but it'd be much better if I did it right away, because then, I'd have more things to say (and that sentence just rhymed).

Okay next time I'll do just that. (:

That's about it for January. I've decided that the two other events that took place aren't really important - one's about shopping, and one's about some party that I really shouldn't have gone to because it was such a flop.

Happy Chinese New Year to those celebrating it, and happy holidays to everyone else except those in NYP (HAHAHHAHA), primary schools, secondary schools, JCs and universities.

January Events: NYE

Sunday, February 18, 2007

I've finally decided to start. I found time, hoorah! Okay I'll only be talking about NYE for this entry because after I finished this entry, I realised it's quite lengthy. I'll update on the other events that happened in January in my next entry. (:

New Year's Eve/New Year's Day (311206/010107)
Jolene and I planned a NYE party last minute, and it turned out quite well. (: It's nothing much, just a small gathering for us to celebrate.

None of us wanted to go to a big countdown shit where there'd be massive crowds and traffic and human jams when everyone wants to go home. Bad bad bad idea.

Since the people attending this "party" - Rui Ming, Jolene, Celine and I - are all West side people, we decided to hold it somewhere in the middle - the longkang :D

So here's what we brought:


Lotsa shit I tell you. See the Shieldtox (I know it's mispelt, but I took this from Jolene!)? Initially, we wanted to use that to kill and destroy unwanted visitors (i.e. cockroaches, banglas, senior citizens) but we decided to get creative. Haha, you'll see! (:

We left my house at about 10.30pm to buy 40 pieces of McNuggets. :D Then we went over to the longkang and prepared for countdown! Celine almost missed it, but she made it on time. Hoho!

However, we decided not to follow the conventional count down by following one clock. We decided to follow the clocks on our phones (mind you, all our clocks were showing different times). Every 1 or 2 minutes, one of us would exclaim, HAPPY NEW YEAR!


Rui Ming and his Mongolian hat!


Jolene and her bunny ears!


Celine and Jolene's Spongebob party hat!


My Santa hat and I!


Our first meal of the day year: Chicken McNuggets. In the picture, Rui Ming explains, without words, how delicious McNuggets are. Yum! We had all 3 different sauces, and 3 of each. :D Fuck it was good shit.

We sat around, chatted, played games, bitched, throw paper planes, pop poppers, spray that string thingy, poured powder.. and then it just hit us. We found out a new, fun and innovative way to use a can of Shieldtox..




VOOOMM! Fucking awesome I tell you.

We spent the next few hours playing with candles and Shieldtox.


Like some cult like that. =/


The candles melted like nobody's business, haha!

After we got bored of the Shieldtox, we decided to use the Toilet Paper (TP). At first, we wanted to TP the trees, like how those American teens do in high school. But we were afraid that we might get caught in the act, or the police might take samples of the tissue in the morning, and take it to the labs where it will undergo testing, and trace our fingerprints. Then they will come knocking on our doors, forcing us to do Corrective Work Order.

Eh so paiseh please.

So we decided to vandalise something, or rather, someone else. :D


Who better to mummify than the great Jolene? Hoho.

I bet she was secretly enjoying being wrapped in TP. Take a closer look, and you will see the happiness and joy in her face. =x HAHAHAHA! Celine decided that her boobs were feeling a little cold, so she wrapped her boobs with some of Jolene's TP.



Since they loved each other so much, Rui Ming helped to tie them up together! And then we ended up with a.. Joline? Celene? Joce? Cejo? Cejolene? I don't know, you come up with something. Haha.


Blahblah.

Remember I mentioned that the candles were melting like nobody's business? Well, after a few hours of not being flamed, the candle wax hardened (duh). Rui Ming started scraping (sp?) the wax and rolled it into a ball. He proclaimed that he will make it into a big ball, bring it home and tell everyone that its his snot, accumulated since he-can't-remember-how-many years ago.


But eventually, we powdered him, and it looked like a snowman. In the end, he was named Bobby, the Snotman.

Hey Rui Ming, is he still at your house? Haha, take care of him, he has feelings. Alright, what you are about to see, can be quite sensitive to certain people! If you have a weak heart, or are pregnant, please skip this picture, or risk having to bear the extreme consequences.

Are you ready for this?

Please check with your doctor before viewing. =/

Okay here we go.


Mhmm, painful. I know. Haha fuck, you should've seen the way Rui Ming was trying to get the bunny ears off. Fucking hilarious.

We moved over to Enaq to have supper, or was it breakfast.. whatever. It was quite early in the morning, or late at night.. gah I can't decide. So annoying, 4am lah, can't really decide. Neither here nor there, hoho.

We sat under the block, eating our pratas away because the shop didn't have enough space. There was this stupid cockroach that came nearby, and I FLAMED it. It's so much more effective than spraying that Shieldtox. Remember kids, to kill a cockroach, use Shieldtox AND a lighter, or a lit candle. (:

We played some card games, and played Boston on my phone. It became the first song we listen to for 2007. Haha! We hung out a bit more, and went home!


(: I had a great time, but Celine kind of got on my nerves for a bit. Heh. Happy 2007, may your future endeavours come true!

Blah Blah Blah on the Radio

Saturday, February 17, 2007

I officially hate Phuture.

I am never going there ever again. Why?

1. It plays R&B and Hip Hop (on normal nights), and I don't like R&B and Hip Hop.
2. The place is so small.
3. It is so fucken crowded to the extent that there's a human traffic jam. There's no fucken space to walk and everyone's pushing and squeezing to either get in or out of there.
4. It is infested.

God, I am never going back to Phuture unless it plays House or Trance, or anything of that sort, like this Sunday.

I'll be at MoS on Sunday for Godskitchen, and Zouk on Monday for Agnelli & Nelson. Hallelujah to Trance.

Happy Valentine's Day

Wednesday, February 14, 2007

Initially I made a Valentine's Day layout for my blog, but I got so lazy to put it up and, so.. yah. I just changed the lyrics that's all.

Happy Valentine's Day to all the couples out there, may you fuck all night long.

It's a special day for four people too! (: Happy 18th to Peihan, Matthew (you bitch) and Nigel from Mass Comm (because I don't know your surname). Welcome to the world of legality. You're now allowed to club, drink, and fuck. :D Happy 19th to Jew Liang, and good luck for your A Level results!

Sooo.. I'm not gonna blog about January just yet. I'm going to blog about my 19th birthday celebrations! :D



And then I got lazy to continue doing the comic, so I'm just gonna write it down here.

I met Joyce, Reina, Timmy, Leon and Daniel (yay new found friend who's uber cool) outside VivoCity at midnight, where they surprised me with a damn cute (piece of) chocolate cake thing. (: No wonder they didn't wanna meet outside St James. So after finishing the cake and the "candle", we went over to Cheers to get some beer, and proceeded to Powerhouse.

The members queue was unusually long that night, but I managed to sign all of them in rather quickly. :D


I would've reserved a table but the kind people of St James told me that they can only reserve it until 9.30pm. Fuck, I was only going there past midnight lah. So anyway, once we got in, we tried to find a table, but there wasn't any.

We settled with an empty area at the bar. After getting clearing the space for us, and being comfortable in our zone (and after a 10 minute session of camwhoring and dancing), I got a bottle of Moët & Chandon, and 6 champagne flutes for all of us.




Yeah champagne is good.

Joyce was already quite gone by the time we reached. She's quite a light drinker. She had one Amsterdam, and at the door she was already quite.. abnormal. Hahaha. Just look.






And after the champagne, she was goneeee for good.


Cheers to good ol' 19, the last time when I actually have a -teen behind my age. Fuck, I seriously can't believe that I'm turning 20 next year. So old already. Soon I'll be 21, and then I'll be going to NS.

I'm actually looking forward for NS. Haha.

Oh God, and I'm eventually gonna turn into a senior citizen! Cannot cannot, I must die before I reach 60. I will die a happy man. I don't want to start hating myself and going senile and doing silly things like, like, like... silly things that senior citizens do. Fuck. No. I will not, grow, old.

Shut up, you're gonna grow old, become a senior citizen, and die too.

Sorry.

So after that round we went down to get jiggy with it. God the music is damn good. They mixed RnB and Hip Hop with House. Hoho, and it's not those kind of cheesy mixes that you hear those amateurs do and upload so that people can download it from programs like Kazaa and Limewire and whatnot.

It's actually good shit.

Even Reina and Joyce, who don't even like House, say so! :D

Oh by the way, Joyce and Leon disappeared for a while after we went to the toilet. So the rest of us went back up to open another bottle. :D




I just had to put that photo up, hehe.

I can't believe that I couldn't even put up a proper smile the entire night. Just look at the pictures. Horrible. We went outside to find Joyce and Leon, and that's when the stupidity and merlions started kicking in.

Joyce was first, then Reina. Hallelujah, puking fest.









Home we go, after one last martini!

**********

Hello there.


In case you didn't know, Putri and Jolene (and a whole lotta people) were the ones who organised my 19th birthday. I didn't know what was going to happen or where it was going to be held or anything of that sort (or rather, I shouldn't have known, haha).

So while I was sleeping so soundly, Rui Ming came over to wake me up. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck. Hangover. Bad bad bad hangover.

An hour after I woke up, we finally left the house and went over to Sheng Siong nearby to check if they had alcohol. On the way there, Rui Ming saw something that fascinated him.


Shoes. He thought it was cute. Okay lah, it was. Haha.

There was no Absolut Vodka at Sheng Siong, but then, Rui Ming came up with an even better idea. Shieldtox and candles - the very things that we started 2007 with. Aww you wouldn't understand because I didn't blog about it (yet). But nevermind, in this entry, you will understand why it's a great idea.

We bought the Shieldtox, which had even MORE volume now, but we couldn't find no candles. Then we went to Malaysia.


Rui Ming loves Malaysians.

Haha look at how small this picture makes Rui Ming. He looks, miniscule. So ya, at Malaysia, we managed to get the vodka and ice that Putri asked for. Then he blindfolded me and we took a cab back to Labrador Park, Singapore.


Thank you very much for letting me bang into one of those pole things

Suddenly everyone left and I felt I was standing all alone, defenceless. I thought they were gonna throw cakes at me or something. Then I heard a loud "happy birthday", and I took off the blindfold (aka my jacket).

I saw my friends standing in a line, holding flash cards saying, "Happy Nineteenth Birthday Adam!" in my favourite colours - black and orange. :D Ahh sweetness, really. It came as a big surprise and I absolutely loved it.

So that's why Putri asked me to come later. In fact, she asked me to only hail for a cab when she calls. She wanted everyone to be there before I came, but people came late, so she asked me to come later. Haha.

We had the usual cutting cake and all. And yes, the sabo-ing.


Bitches threw a plate of, err, whipped cream I think, in my face. Haha, but its all in the name of love. Hoho. At least I didn't get thrown into the sea like last year. Haha.

Remember I was telling you about the Shieldtox?


VOOOOOM.

Rui Ming the monkey climbed up the red-ant-infested-tree. I had to save him from the horrible red ants, so I flamed on and uhh, tried to destroy all of them. Haha, I felt like a Firebat from Starcraft! Hoho. Rui Ming too, when he was playing with it.

Gah I should use that flamethrower to kill the people one person I hate. He's already fucking black, I should just roast him. Damnit. Okay sorry. I hate him with passion. I'm nice enough, I shant name that fucker.





HOORAY FOR YUHUA! WE BE THE GODS OF.. OF.. OKAY I'LL COME UP WITH SOMETHING SOON!

After I changed, and after there was less people, we opened up the booze and started drinking and playing drinking games. :D

What's a party without alcohol man?!


Her chicken shat on her left boob. I shall call her left boob, Shboob, from today onwards.

Everyone started playing with the shieldtox, and burning everything that was, burnable..


cups.. (by the way, it flattened and it was damn cool)




boxes.. (burn motherfucker, burn)


even Putri tried her hands at burning something! It's recommended as a family activity!


Yeah she flamed a bottle. Then it bent, and Rui Ming said he wanted to bring it home. I can't remember whether he did.

Then we took our last few photos..






..had our last few drinks..


..and did our a few crazy things before we left.








We walked back to Carpark B, and luckily a cab came. But Putri was the only one who was staying in the Central (HAHAHAHA!), so she took the cab first. The cab made a U-Turn at the carpark and left.

We dreaded the walk down because it's really far down. A lorry came down, and I came up with a brilliant idea!




We got off when we reached the main road, and walked over to the bus stop opposite of the old SAJC, took 97 to Jurong East and had supper.

**********


Fucking cheebye the person who took this photo didn't capture the sunset.

Anyway, I'd just like to show my appreciation to everyone who's put so much effort into planning this party, and to everyone who showed up, even though you left early, or you left before I came. I really wish everyone was in the group photo though.

Thanks a million. And I wanna end it with a photo that I really like! It shows so much happiness, and it was the last photo of the day using Putri's camera.

Merry Birthdays and Sweet Goodbyes

Thursday, February 08, 2007

It's February, the month of love..



.. and the month of birthdays (sorry I couldn't resist putting that picture because it's just so fucking sexy). I'm serious, just look at the amount of people celebrating their birthdays this month. It's crazy. I guess there's a lot of Aquarians and Pisceans (is that what you call them?) out there..

.. or maybe I just know a lot of people who're born in the same month!

School's out after today's submission of the Proposal. That means the end of Year 1. I would gladly put a class photo in, but what a shame, we've never exactly taken a class photo together before. But still, thanks for the memories. T102/T107 will be etched in my memories forever.

Despite the initial "sides" that was created in the first semester, I think the second semester has been a good one. We put aside our differences and bothered to get to know each other better. I think it's a good step before ending our first year, because it's useless to dislike one another based on opinions without knowing the person first.

However, some people changed for the worst. Reason? I don't know, maybe because this semester is damn slack, and people slackened, like, really slackened until they don't even know when to prioritise work. *shrugs* I'm not trying to shoot anyone, but that's just what I feel.

New lecturers, new modules, new obstacles; and we've overcome them all. So what's with Year 2 being so tough? Bring it on. But before that, let's party throughout the 10 weeks. Hoorah to holidays.

And after today, I venture into the abyss: the ever mysterious "what happens tomorrow"s. I have so many things planned out for this holiday, and one of them is to work.

Where the fuck am I going to find work? I don't even know what I wanna work as this holiday. I need moolah for the Bali trip at the end of the holidays. (:

Oh and by the way, new poll, and new wishlist is up, so do participate, heh.

PS: I WILL GET MY JANUARY UPDATES ASAP.

Le Monstar

Sunday, February 04, 2007

Presenting..


I said I was going to talk about this, and I am going to, now.

Last Monday, on 29th January, I officially declared Putri Natasha, as Dimwit of the Year 2007. LOL. It was so hilarious. We went to Burger King to eat.

I bought a BBQ Turkey Bacon and Cheese Burger (or something like that) meal. Then I asked her if she wanted some, and she took a bite. Then she saw the bacon and thought it was, the normal pork bacon.

So I played along, and told her that it really was the normal bacon.

"Eh? I thought you don't really care much like me. Oh no. You don't eat ah?" Then I passed a tissue to her to spit it out.

And she did, and I went into a laughing fit. For your information, Burger King is Halal and doesn't serve pork.

PS: I don't eat pork.

---------

After I'm done with my Written Communication assignment, I will update my blog on the whole month of January, as well as do a little bit of revamping. (:
