hello acs and may the force be with you.

Today's been a really good and lucrative day for me. It was packed with fun and excitement, totally ecstatic! That's why i am so compelled to write an entry by tonight. I must write it!

First thing first, my day started off at about 6 o'clock in the morning. Got up, changed and sped off to school! Which school you might ask, yes, i was going back to ACS(Barker Road)! heh. In fact, this going back was a planned trip, right about three to four days back? YEAP! Okay, let's see how many people went with back with us today! Practically, almost the whole brotherhood, me, leon, iylia, wilson, wei chang, adriel, mukund, daniel, darren, ronald, and auggie! And also adding to the list there were also lincoln, wayne and our seniors, amos and yicong aka worm! Yes, you're right, a big group, a very big group of 15!

Now, i'm going to talk about the short but no doubt hilarious and exciting time we had in school! All of us met up in school at about 710 and yes all of us were early for school!(except for that leon, as usual, he's late.) And when the bell rang, we took our bags and walked all the way to the tennis courts for assembly while we embraced ourselves for the worst.(maybe not, maybe it was just me.) We walked through the gates of the tennis courts and decided to take root at class 5e1! And for the first time, 5e1's attendance was exploding, overpouring!(okay it wasn't funny) And then there was a announcement for the whole school to stand up for the national anthem and the pledge taking ceremony, all of us stood up with the class and we unanimously sang and recite both the pledge and the anthem! Okay, this isn't the main course, but the main highlight's that ever since we stepped into the tennis courts, the discipline master, melvin sim and the vice-principal, kathryn koh were staring at us throughout, even during devotion! But the strange thing was that teachers walked passed us but they didnt seem to chase us out or anything but instead just continue on walking to their classes! Well, the first thought that hit me was, 'oh no, i think we're going to get chased out', BUT NO! Hilariously, kathryn koh called up Mrs Aw and i guess, she asked about us and Mrs Aw jokingly said that we were going to get punished! We stayed back after everyone was dismissed and strolled over to where kathryn koh was and we started greeting and talking to her, and one look on her face, you could tell that she was happy and perhaps really surprised to see all of us!

After speaking to kathyrn koh and melvim sim, we went around the whole school to greet some teachers that we know! Man, i could just feel the nostalgia of acs school life, it was so tangible.

Next, after we had our breakfast in school, we headed off to SENTOSA! woo hoo! but not quite. I guess most of us intended to go over there for a sun-tanned. What sun? It was frigging raining throughout the whole day! We reached sentosa at about 11am? And the moment we decide to settle down the rain started pouring and then we had to look for shelter. Somehow i must say that almost the whole sentosa day was spend under shelter. But of course we played beach soccer and beach volleyball! This time we were more prepared for sentosa and i thank God for that or if you could imagine, it was raining and we had totally nothing to do but to stay under shelters? As quoted by the guys, "we paid money just to go to sentosa to sit down?"

Oh yes i have to applaude the guys who played beach soccer, we played beach soccer with this group of guys, i must say they bag along with them a group of three babes but they certainly weren't guys that looked as if these girls would like to hang out with and to say, they looked 'bengish' and they are. They certainly were really rough, i repeat they weren't aggressive but plain rough and in a sense we all felt that they were playing dirty. Still honour goes to us, we won them though by a close margin but still we won ! The final score was 5-4! So guys, you guys did a great job! All of us came out injured after the game, i have a really numb and sore right foot, i can hardly move my big toe up or down. (i have to go and put some medication) I wouldn't say all of them were playing dirty but some of them were, sometimes they didn't seem as if they were going for the ball but instead, for our legs and one even shown himself as trying to look for trouble. But no doubt, we won and i'm happy!

So at about four o'clock, we left the siloso beach and went to harbour front's hawker centre for dinner. After that i rushed down to orchard cineleisure to meet ian, we went to watch the premiere of STAR WARS 3! The show's not bad, at least it breaches the gaps of the trilogy and the first two episodes of Star Wars. The show's about 2 and a half hour long but i don't think that's an accurate time because somehow there was some techincal faults at the start so we re-watched the starting part again. I think all of you should go and watch it, unless you're not into Stars Wars, then...

Well that was my day! All compressed into one entry! Indeed, i am feel really really exhausted after such an 'adventurous' day out. Also, not forgetting that i've to wake up at about 730? Because i've to go to nanyang poly for freshmen orientation. Well i pray for the best tomorrow, hope it's good! So i'm going off now! Cheers!

almost here

Did I hear you right
'cause I thought you said
Let's think it over
You have been my life
And I never planned
Growing old without you

Shadows bleeding through the light
Where the love once shined so bright
Came without a reason
Don't let go on us tonight
Love's not always black and white
Haven't I always loved you?

But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's not enough
And when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'cause your only almost here

I would change the world
If I had a chance
Oh won't you let me
Treat me like a child
Throw your arms around me
Oh please protect me

Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered how it hurts
Haven't I always loved you

But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's not enough
And when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'cause your only almost here

Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
Haven't I always loved you

But when I need you
You're almost here
Well I never knew how far behind i'd left you
And when I hold you your almost here
Well I'm sorry that I took our love for granted
And now I'm with you I'm close to tears
'cause I know I'm almost here
Only almost here

free time.

Finally, i could just sit down in front of the computer to write an entry. Yes, it has been decades since i wrote my last decent entry. At least, i've got some time to write one now!

I've been working and yes, i'm really tired and exhausted at times. But work's fine and my colleagues and managers are very nice to me. To date, i've never once recalled my manager scolding me although i know i've done so many mistakes! Albeit the long hours of working and at times, the food i get to eat everyday is good and the best part of it, it is free!

Working at O'briens could be pretty stressful because some customers are just plainly difficult and for some, you just don't know what they actually want because they just kept whispering and murmuring to their friend or spouse next to them, making me look like an idiot, always waiting on them, still undecided. The best part is that these customers are completely ignorant that there is a long queue behind them.

That's work for me. To say, if i had enough sleep, work wouldnt be so tiring. I've cultivated the habit of having late nights. Reason being, i've been coming home late , meeting up with all my friends and always forgetting about the time. As the cliche goes, time flies. I've got so much catching up with all my friends, so many have changed and you realised that you've been estranged and distant from your friendships with them.

A change of topic, i had to work yesterday from nine to three. It was the most dreadful five hours of work because i kept dozing off during work! I am so tired, i had only 6 hours of sleep the previous night, and i'm a person who needs the optimum range and recommended hours of sleep, eight hours.

Then i went to church, as usual i was late. After church service, went out with the youths for dinner and then we splitted off. Some went to play pool and the rest followed me to meet up leon and michelle. After meeting up with them, we dropped by Jalan Kayu for roti prata. In fact i went there just for ribena, was too full to eat anything! Oh yes, we met up with iylia, ariel and nicole at Jalan Kayu.

Wish i could type more, but time doesnt abide so here's the end of the entry since a long time ago.

Later.
