I haven't been blogging in a while. Currently watching the 18th Episode of Aishiteruze Baby. It's so cute and I think the series is relatively new. I hope to understand Japanese better. Should have taken it as a 3rd language last time.


I haven't done much preparation for the O Level Chinese Exam next Wednesday. I really wonder what to do. I just need to look into my letter writing skills and formats, and memorise some good essay phrases. That's basically all right? I hope I don't miss out anything on the revision.


We are learning many new things during the supplementary lessons in school. We learnt Partial Fractions in A Maths, Weird Sets in E Maths, Waves in Physics, Redox reactions in chemistry, Nervous systems in Biology. Stories about murderers in English, Stalin's Purges in History, and Coasts in Geography Elective. It's like school never ended after the exams. I just found out that I topped the level in Geography Elective ... I'm quite happy.


Today is worship experience in church at 4.30pm. I'm trying to get my friend to go again but he won't reply. I'm gonna try again later. Hopefully he comes. I need to experience God in worship again. Somehow I feel quite dry.


I did some research on gastrointestinal problems. There were a list of 39 related diseases and a whole bunch of symptoms and syndromes. I hope my problem is ameliorated soon. It's much better in the morning then in the late afternoon when the abdominal distention sets in. I haven't lost my appetite. I can eat like a glutton and put on 2 kg after a heavy meal. I feel like I'm growing slowly.


You don't have to walk life's path alone; the great God of the universe will take your hand and walk by your side. As busy as He is, He's never too busy for you. The heart that truly loves is the heart that truly knows God.

I'm crazy over Anime now and I think I've spent over 50 hours after exams just staring at the animated pictures on Veoh, Youtube and Stage6. I'm not certain why I'm so hyped up about Anime and due to prolonged sitting on my computer chair, my butt is stiff, legs are numb and intestines are working slowly.


I seriously need to get down to some exercise soon and I've only attended 1 training session after exams. Training hasn't even officially started yet and I'm wondering what Teo is doing these days. Well ... Ace Camp is over, and training should resume really soon sometime this week.


Anyway, I have O level Chinese to worry about next week, on Wednesday in particular. I want to score for both my essay and letter writing. After I finish my current series of Anime, I seriously need to get down to some work. I have to complete memorising the appropriate format and phrases for Chinese letter writing in order to secure at least 16 marks out of 20.


My essay should get at least 39/50 for me to be getting a secured A1. I must memorise all the good phrases for composition writing, prepare key points for newspaper reports and brush up on my chinese vocabulary. By this week, I wanna do what I can to improve. Plan, plan, plan ... have to plan well.


I have some Prefect Guard of Honour Duty tomorrow. Gotta wear black shoes and some blazer. I find this GOH duty really insignificant. We are just treated as statues to stand in the hall during the last day of school. I mean, it's not like we are guarding the hall right? Even the name of this duty sounds misleading. All we do is stand for no apparent reason. Bodyguards of students? I doubt so.

I'm currently on my 16th consecutive Anime series. It's called Suzuka (Light Breeze) and it's a really cute love story. I like love stories. They can evoke deep emotions within me and make me feel special for some reason. That's the beautiful power of love and human emotions. I'm so glad God placed such things in our life. They make this world a better place to be in.


Here are some pictures from current and past Anime that I've watched.

































































Think of life as a board game:

For every kind word, you move one space forward
For every loving deed, you jump two spaces forward
For every grump, grouch, or unkind word, you go back one space.

Now Play to win. The reward in heaven is great.

School is less stressful this week as the exams are over. All we do in school is read, play, go through exam scripts and chat. Training this week is significantly reduced too due to the sec 3 and 2 students being involved in Ace Camp 1 and 2. Well, it's partly a good thing that I'm not involved due to my O Level Chinese Paper at the end of the month. I intend to study Chinese a week or two before the paper, so now I'm taking a deserved break.


My stomach and abdominal distensions is getting better day by day. I thank God that my digestive system is recovering from its plight. I had a really satisfying poop in the afternoon.


By the way, I leveled to 151 yesterday but I died after that and lost about 3m exp. Well its okay ... I'm quite happy that I leveled. There's really nothing interesting about maple these days except the anticipation of fourth job advancement and a "Halloween" town that's suppose to be released sometime in this month. I visited the forum thread briefly but the maps and mobs don't seem to appealing. The entrance of the Ghost Town should be situated near Kerning City.


I had a fun time killing Captain Latanica yesterday and found a hefty number of equipments. Today I was mainly watching more Anime which was really appealing. Oh dear, I have to get safety charm and earmuffs for my maple character ... Nvm, that was redundant.


I finished a funny but touching Anime called Princess Princess today and I'm starting on Ouran High School Host Club. I've just watched up to the 4th episode but I think there are about 26 episodes in total. I'm like addicted to the cuteness of the characters in the Anime. Kawaii !!!


Next time I wanna come up with my own Manga and have someone translate it into many languages. I have so many ambitions. Well, it's not good to be fickle minded and hopefully I will find my rightful path in life by 18, or when the time is right.


Superstar or team player? Share the spotlight with others for the moment and you'll have others to share the memories with forever.

So there's really nothing much to do after the exams and everything seems to lack zest and vigour unlike old times. The games are somehow boring to me, even maple and audition and beginning to seem boring. I've no mood to train anymore in maple unless 4th job is released.


I'm beginning to recover from my stomachaches, colic and abdominal wind. I hope I don't end up with Irritable Bowel Syndrome because that would make things very frustrating for me. Till now, the Colic medicine seems to be working fine and I should be well by Wednesday. Tomorrow is a school holiday so I can rest at home and play games and watch some Movies or Anime.


I finally got married in Audition after several months of dancing relations in audition. She seems happy and I'm quite pleased that we passed the wedding license well ... I guess every thing's fine as long as we're both happy. We got a complimentary gift from the wedding ticket too, a tuxedo set for me and a wedding dress for her. Perhaps online relationships work best virtually ... but true love requires all aspects of affection and attention.


Maybe I'm just curious to find out how it would be like to be engaged in a relationship. Online relationships can be generally related to that of our physical lives. We quarrel sometimes, we joke sometimes, we are weird sometimes, but most importantly, we care for each other.


Someday I hope to find somebody who feels the same way as I do. For me, I need to find someone who is similar to me in terms of emotions, character and pastimes. In Chinese, we have a idiom called "Zhi Tong Dao He", which means 2 friends or more of the same personality and traits. This is what I'm looking out for in that somebody. But it would be too troublesome to ponder about this now. I'm sure I'll find out when the time is right and when God wills for it to occur.


Vanessa Carlton's new album - "Heroes & Thieves" has very light-hearted, lovely melodies. It was released on 9th October, just a few days back and I'm falling in love with her songs already. The lyrics are very meaningful and touching but it takes a while to get use to the songs. I like Nolita Fairytale, Fools Like Me and Come Undone. I wish I could upload the new songs unto my blog but I don't know how.


Everyone who crosses our path should matter to us, because everyone matters to God.

Well the results are out today and I guess I'm quite satisfied with them I guess ... I generally met most of my goals. Here are my results ...

English - A1
Maths - A1
Additional Maths - A2/A1 (Not confirmed, Errata present)
Chemistry - A2
Physics - B3
Biology - B3
History - A1 (Surprisingly)
Social Studies - A1
Chinese - A2
Higher Chinese - D7 (Have to work harder)
Geography Elective - A1/A2 (Not known yet)

So I have about 7A's, 2B's and 1 D in total ... Have to strive for all As I guess ...
I'm hoping for an L1B5 of 8 and below ...

Training is starting soon ... My first would be tomorrow ... Well, that's the way life is ... The same cycle that all teenagers in Singapore go through, well at least most of them.

Life in Heaven will be perfect - perfect health, perfect love, perfect peace, perfect purpose, perfect truth, perfect forgiveness, perfect happiness and many more perfectas.

I have something to blog about. The exams are over and I should have gone for my LLTC Camp. I didn't go because of my stomach discomfort and colic. I'm so prone to fainting spells too. I wanna get well soon ... having a minor bout of constipation after taking all that intestinal medication. Somehow my stomach feels bloated. I really want to get well soon.


I've been watching several Anime Episodes at home. Most of them are love stories and they are really touching. But that are a handful that portrays love in different aspects. Sometimes love strikes in unexpected ways. It doesn't always happen in a relationship, but somehow it takes time for love to get stronger. Infatuation can lead to love or lust, it depends on which road you choose to take. I hope to control both of these emotions in future. Life depends significantly on love.


There is no life without love, yet there is no love without life.


Well, tomorrow is Sec 4 Farewell Assembly ... I've to check if I'm on any of the duties tomorrow before I tuck into bed. I really wish that my intestines will be cleared tomorrow morning. I must have faith, no matter how nonsensical I can be. Getting upset seldom solves the problem or helps people do better, whereas a good laugh together can relieve the tension of a situation and turn things around for the better. That's what I hope I'm good at ... Haha.


Goodnight world. (Let's forget about our worries and exam results ... at least for now)

I haven't had the time to blog during this stressful period. Most of the "stressful" papers are over thankfully. We are left with chemistry, and elementary maths paper 2, apart from higher Chinese paper 2 on Thursday.



I'm so glad that history was cleared today. I really had a tiring time writing down all those information and critiques about past events and people. My arms and hands are aching now but it was worth it.


I often wonder why we study history. History has no significant impact on the society in terms of advancing and modernisation. In my opinion, the only thing beneficial about history is that we learn from our past mistakes and perhaps help to make better insights for the future. Other then that, history does not improve our language, does not help in technology and social work unlike science and maths, and has a very limited prospect in society other than being a curator, teacher or historian. It also takes up lots of brain capacity and out of all the time I take to study, 50% or more is concentrated in memorising history. Either I need better memorising tactics or history is just a plain drain on the brain and hand.


Judging based on occupational, environmental and societal criteria, I would rate history amongst the lowest. Here's the list of subjects that I take:


English, Mother Tongue, Maths, A Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geography, History, Social Studies.


Languages help us to communicate effectively and attain jobs that require bilingualism or trilingualism. In order words, they are crucial in making the world go round. Maths and Sciences help to generate new ideas, explain processes and make the world technologically advanced for the benefit of mankind. Geography aids in the understanding of our Earth, the infrastructure of society, and the prevention and research of Mother Nature's forces. This helps prevent natural disasters and fosters greater understanding of the planet that we are on. Social Studies ... hmm ... more like social indoctrination ... but at least it talks about current affairs.


History talks about the past. We should just record down information and pass on good moral values and teachings from past mistakes. Why must we review the umpteen number of incidents and situations that have happened in the past? What is the wise saying of "Don't look back, work on the present, aim for the future" for? We had a tumultuous amount of information to mug for history that doesn't apply to our lives at all and most probably wont in future unless we are fascinated by the past which is highly unlikely unless you are a unique individual destined to be a historian.


As students, we take history just to do well in our exams. We don't appreciate it truly. I may be wrong in making such a sweeping generalisation. But sincerely, I don't see the benefits in memorising about Mussolini or Hitler or how the great dictators ruined the war or how World wars resulted in many repercussions. History is made everyday.


Yes we learn from our past mistakes, yes we read about how the world wars cause much destruction, yes we are aware of past chaos and ongoing chaos. But why must we memorise all this information? Why can't we just take note of the relevant parts that apply to our lives and the making of a better society.


I know there's a brighter side to history. I just don't see it now. Sorry.


Thinking only of one's needs can make someone petty and small minded. Thinking of others, praying for them, giving and helping them, makes someone great. Perhaps I've been too egocentric on this rambling about history. Ignore it if you love history. Don't let your passion die.


I hope I can love history someday too. Happy Children's Day
