UPDATE!!! (part dix)

1. Seeing that countdown thingy go from double digits to single digits makes me kinda nervous... one week away from what could possibly be the best (or worst) decision of my life.

2. I STILL have stuff to buy. As of now i've bought a backpack (cos i need one that's big enuff to stuff my laptop as a handcarry luggage and small enuff to bring it to school on a daily basis), bought pants cos i dun think i can survive on 2 jeans for 6months, bought disposible undies cos i really dun wanna wash anything for the first few days. Plus other bo liao things.

3. And by the looks of it, my luggage is most prob gonna explode from unnecessary clothing and shoes that i plan to bring... i cant seem to convince my mum and sister that being a walking fashion faux pas is like committing social suicide in the land of Louis Vuitton, Hermes and Agnes B. And i really dun wanna be associated with any Ah Tiongs

4. Trying to squeeze in gatherings after gatherings the past week and next week. I've had dinner with the dancers at Step's house, one with Skee, lunch with Lynn, karaoke with my Civil Engine frens, dinner with my sec2 class, next week meeting my army buds, my sec4 classmates, and my primary school peeps. It's getting a bit tiring and my pocket is bleeding like crazy. But it's all good.

5. Pon-ning all IBG trainings, even thou i know i shud be looking my best and in need of a desperate tan (where the fuck's the sun when u need it) and not look like a slob with flabby arms. yes i am superficial... like u dun already know... maybe (and that's a big fat maybe) i shud go for one more swimming training on thursday. BUT NO TRACK TRAININGS please.... the only consolation i get from having a fat tummy is that its gonna keep me warm when i am in france

6. Stuffing myself with food i think i may miss. I mean i've even went back to eat Fong Seng nasi lemak for crying out loud. but the afternoon cook was not as good at the supper one. bummer. Still need to eat bar chor mee and bbq chicken wings.

7. argh. i noe some pple may have already know their exam results becos of some leak but yeah. mine's coming out tmr. my grades better improve or at the very least maintain. otherwise i wud be leaving on such a disappointing note.

8. Oh by the way my flight details are on the right (if u havent already noticed) and i am leaving in 7 days (if you havent already noticed) so if u think u are in desperate need to meet me before i leave just let me know. yes i am an egoist.

In the meantime.... MERRY XMAS everyone. have a good one.

DANCE CAMP!!




Holidays have been great so far, with swimming trainings and stuff. i seriously need to tan myself before heading to the frigid cold weather.... and Dance Camp was a hoot man!! Dance wat now?? yeah dance camp. i know, it sounds really tacky, like some sec school bullshit camp, but it was really very well planned. We shud do this more often man.... and lyrical hip hop was friggin cool! Kudos to the dance comm for making this so enjoyable! Good luck guys for DU. My heart will be with you guys! MORAL SUPPORT!!

MY 100th POST!!!

Wahaha my 100th post man... this is so surreal. My previous blog probably only survived like for 3, 4 months max and died due to some personal issues... so yeah, small accomplishment here.

Since its the 100th post, i think i better figure out something more meaningful to write. And although there's still a good 23 days before the end of the year, but i dun anything more interesting is going to happen, let's just do a 2006 in retrospect eh?

1. Let's see. RAG!!! wow. what can i say. it's probably the best moment in 06 man. Euphoria... the joy of winning, is simply indescribable. And to be able to be a part of something like this makes it even more memorable. Feel the Kronos once more during Chingay!!

2. Dance Uncensored 06. I've probably said this more than once but i'm a dance whore.... it's my life. The chance to perform again at UCC is just awesome man. I'd just die not being able to dance for the next 8 months. (OR maybe i'll just join some french niggas and do their hiphop, ghetto style. hehe)

3. My China Trip. Ok... i was a bit skeptical at first... the horrible stories of smelly and cubical-less toilets and dodgy food. But it turned out to be quite good for a cheap getaway. I mean, the toilet part is true, but the food was quite good actually. And did i mention it's dirt cheap?

4. Surviving one semester with 7 modules.... and another with 6 modules and equivalent of almost 7 projects. It's amazing what you can will yourself to do. i dun think i will ever subject myself to such torture again... it's not fun man, when all you wanna do is stab yourself repeatedly with a fork... in the eye... until you die. ok borderline morbidity here.

5. Scuba diving was super fun and the experience was out of this world.... but i dun think i'll do it again anytime soon.... i'm just to lazy to put on all the gear and stuff. been there done that. ya know?

hmm actually i can't think of anymore stuff to talk abt... hmm. i have an uninteresting life man. ok i hope my blog will have many many more hundreds posts! hahaha. And let's hope that this time next year i will have more stuff to tell you about.

My virgin encounter with the French administration

was a complete disaster.... useless bunch of crapasses. You see, after checking, double checking, triple checking the documents to bring to do my visa online, i KNEW the French Embassy was going to pull some shit stunt on me, i had a nagging feeling man....

Apparently they needed 4 copies of my passport (they put 1 on the website), 4 copies of the application (1, on the website), and some other stuff that i needed to have more copies of... so how? i walked to BTC (its near) to have them photocopied (and i'm not even going to BOTHER trying to tell you what a complete urban planning nightmare BTC is... i cant find the freaking entrances!!!)

i walked back to the Embassy (of all days god decided not to rain, he chose tuesday) pouring with sweat.... by the time i reached it was 11plus and the visa section was only opened till 12pm. by the time it almost reached my turn (which was over 12pm already), i saw the lady in front taking out loads of cash to pay for her visa, which got me thinking. Cos swear i saw 70 bucks... so i asked the her how much she paid... she said "$198".... i nearly died on the spot. SERIOUSLY... what the hell is wrong with these people not updating their website!!!

SO i was like FUCK IT man i will come back tmr. And i did... and i woke up at 8am to beat the freakin queue. And then i went o get my french brith cert certified... and horror of horrors it costs me 36bucks just to get a chop... A CHOP!!!! and actually i need 2 more photocopied copies to be certified as well, but it costs me another 28bucks per subsequent copies... SERIOUSLY!!!!!

now i know why they are so rich..... all in all i spent 52bucks getting my birth cert translated, 198 for the visa and 36 bucks to get the chop for my birth cert.... *faintz*

J'ai mal à l'estomac

The past couple of days have been extremely hardcore for me physically... no i havent had sex (i wish)...

i had really bad stomachache on friday nite. So bad till the point that my stomach ended up in knots and i woke up breaking in cold sweat. i only ate curry fish head and hokkien mee for diner, nothing out of the ordinary. and my parents didnt get stomachache, which rules out food poisoning, so i guess i must have stuffed myself too full that nite....

i downed like 5 bottles of pochai pills and some medcine from the doctor... i cant say i've 100% recovered cos i still get like cramps every now and then but at least the shitting has stopped. Thank god. Now i dun have to walk out the door fearing if i'd crap in my pants...

The only thing good abt having diarrhoea is that i get to lose water weight and not look so bloated... other than that, it's just a pain in the ass. Literally.

PS: 1 more freaking day till the end of exams!!!
