End Of Year 2

Finally, it's the end of Year 2!

The 2 papers on Wednesday were a killer though, especially Software Engineering. It's amazing that I actually found Networking to be easier than Software Engineering. Many of my classmates walked out of the exam hall shaking their heads, saying that they're gonna fail and that they'll have to repeat those modules again. I hope not.

Now that Year 2 has ended, it's time for me to start finding a part time job that allows me to work until end of August.

KTV last night with Jess, Sheen and Luke was fun! But then again, it just reminded me of the days where the group was so much bigger, and I could hug her while singing, or while she was singing.

Oh shit, I'm going to emo again. Damn, why can't I stop doing that?

Maybe because it's a Saturday, and I have no friends to go out with?

Does anyone want to date me?


Warning:
Please do not park your car under any trees at the open carpark opposite Cineleisure. I parked there from 5.30pm to 12 midnight, and my ENTIRE car was full of bird shit! I pity the guy at the 24 hour carwash who helped me wash the car. He gave me a wry smile after he used the water hose to wash off all the shit, like he's saying "how the hell did you get so much bird shit, and this job is shit too"

I pity the bird whose shit was red. Maybe it ate something wrong, or that it had some disease.


Listening to this song right now. Must be due to the 天天夜夜 I sang last night.

How Do I Live Without You

How do I get through one night without you
If I had to live without you
What kind of life would that be
Oh I, I need you in my arms
Need you to hold
You're my world, my heart, my soul

If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything good in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live

Without you, there'd be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There'd be no world left for me
And I, oh Baby, I don't know what I would do
I'd be lost if I lost you
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything real in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live

If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything
Need you with me
Baby can't you know that you're everything good in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live

How do I live without you
How do I live without you baby
How do I live....

Earth

What is happening to our Earth?

First, there's the tsunami. Then, there's the cyclone which hit Myanmar. And just less than 2 hours ago, a powerful earthquake measuring 7.8 hit China, affecting buildings as far as Bangkok.

Is our Earth trying to tell us something? That it is time for us to stop causing damage to it? And that is why It is retaliating by having all these natural disasters?

I'm lucky to be here in Singapore where there are no natural disasters (at least for now). And that is why I feel for those who are affected. Imagine enjoying your lunch and watching your favourite movie on DVD, and then suddenly within minutes you're scrambling for your life, and you find that you not only lose everything that you had, but also lose your family.

It's time that we start to treat our Earth well.

For now, what we can do as Singaporeans, is to donate whatever you can for the victims of Cyclone Nargis which hit Myanmar. For now, they can only accept cash donations due to logistical problems.

I've donated SGD200 to the Salvation Army. It might not be a huge amount, but I certainly hope that the money can help someone.

Friends who are reading my blog, even if it's SGD25 or SGD50, just go donate. Help those people in need.

Happy

Paper on Thursday was a breeze! So happy!

Well, definitely I had some minor mistakes here and there, but on overall I do believe that I can get an A for it. Yes! On my way to my 1st Class Honours!


Went Bugis and Sim Lim yesterday with Jessie, and I must say that it was quite fun. Walking around Bugis aimlessly, looking at cutesy stuff, having lunch at Ajisen. Jessie then couldn't decide if she should service and continue using her 6 year old Twinhead laptop, or just simply buy a new one. Checked out some Sony laptop which she loved a lot, if not for the fact that some are China-made. Then sent her for her job interview, before meeting Neo and his colleagues.

Before that Jessie told me a lot of things which enlightened me, and I want to thank her for that.


Sunday's Mother's Day. You guys bought anything for your mothers? For me, I don't have a mother nor a father. But to me, my auntie and my uncle are just like my dad and mom. Yes, I don't buy them gifts, but I do treat them to dinner. It is just a way of me thanking them for sacrificing by not having any children of their own and instead choosing to bring me up when my dad passed away when I was 3.

I mean, there are some relatives who couldn't be bothered about his/her relative's kids when they pass away, and they'll just say "aiyah put the kid in an orphanage lah!"

To all the mothers, Happy Mother's Day.

Except my own mother. She don't deserve to be called a mother.

1 Down, 3 To Go

Today's paper didn't go as smoothly as I would have expected, but I believe I'm still on course for an A. Sad that I spotted the wrong chapters to study, for this is the first time I see the paper not having any theory questions from the first part of the course. Both theory questions were from the second part of the course, which we concentrated very little on.

Targetting at least an 80.

Next up, CIS 212: Advanced Programming and Techniques! Must get A!

For now, time to go sleep and teach for tomorrow. Kinda miss all those little students of mine. Well, ok, not exactly little. But then again, the oldest student I have is 8 years younger than I am.

Damn I'm old.

Pai Ka

Accompanied Jessie in the afternoon to Sim Lim to get her laptop adapter replaced, and was laughed by her for being pai ka!

After that we walked around and noticed a few beautiful laptop skins, and intend to go back there on Friday with our laptops to get them sticked.




As you guys can see, its all red in the black circle. Nope, that's not a mosquito bite. I presume that's some bruising or internal bleeding from the injury I had on Sunday.

Initially it didn't hurt, and I carried on playing for 2 more hours. After that, went to Grandma's house, and started to limp abit. Reached home, swollen and limping. Up till now, it hasn't got better a single bit.

Too bad, I can't go see a doctor at this moment, when I'm supposed to prepare for my exams.

Thus, bear with the pain! Time to go back and revise for my paper tomorrow. Good luck to all my classmates taking the paper!

Injured ... Again

Damn.

Somehow I must get injured every Sunday after the soccer session. This time round, I crashed my left foot into another guy's shin, and *crack!* I heard something in my left foot crack.

Now, it bloody hurts!

Luckily, there is no teaching for me tomorrow, and therefore I don't have to spend 3 hours standing wearing leather shoes! Wonder if I should go see a doctor and check if there is any broken bone or something. But then, I've got to prepare for exams!

Having exams next week! This is probably the first time that I'm setting a target for myself in an examination, because of the promise that I gave to my grandmother. I told her for my degree, there are many different levels, and the 1st Class Honours is the top, and I told her that I will get that certificate for her.

Score As for all my papers! Once all my papers are over, I can then start to find jobs! Or projects to do!

Oops

Not been blogging for quite a few days already.

Hope everyone had a good holiday! Bet many people out there took leave/off on Friday to enjoy a 4 day long weekend!

Have been drinking a bit recently, hoping that I could 借酒消愁.

And I find it stupid. Because it doesn't work.

People say that when you breakup, it takes time before you forget the pain and get on with life. But for me, it's weird because I do get on with life, but the pain just gets worse day by day. I just keep thinking of her all the time.

But I do know that she has her own life now, and I'm nobody to interrupt into it. And I'm not going to do so either.

All I want to do now, is to get good grades for my coming exams, and then carry on earning money and finish off all the things that I've not completed, including Mr Quek's website, and finding a web host for her company's website.

And all I can hope for is that eventually, no matter how long it takes, that she will see the change in me, and give me another chance to start all over again. Whether is it months or years.

To Sheena, Luke, Jessie, Kev, Cindy, Marcus, Wanhua (Sorry if I missed out anyone. Too many to mention):
It's been great being friends with you guys for so many years. You guys are really best of friends. It's my own fault and own loss that I've lost you guys, and I wish you all the best in all your future endeavours. Hope that in the future, if there is a chance for me, that I will reappear in this group again. With her.


Something good though
