Jurong Point

Yesterday was the Sports Heats. I kana sabo-ed by the class to be in shot put. But since Jason, Kenny, Kian Ann, Joshua, Yanling, Jeraldine and many more are already participating, I can't turn down. I went to the field at 3, with Xiaotian to support me. They gave a short briefing and the throwing began. When it was my first shot to throw, it went a good 6-7 metres, but my foot hit the starting line, so it was counted as a foul throw. Wth. Some of the Sec 1s were pro. There was one who was about the same height as me and arm with muscles like Xiaotian. Its like, omg, how to win. Anyway that guy threw 7+ metres. My arm ached because I exerted too much strength. Actually I am very weak, so don't blame me. Lagged around and watched people playing basketball. There was one damn tall girl. What's her problem. When it was my second turn to throw, I did not foul, but it was just 6.4 metres. Third throw about the same. So I did not get into the Finals 8. Sad la, but can't help it.

After this, it was only like 4+, so Xiaotian treated Cab to Clementi then we took the MRt to Jurong Point. No, we did not play Initial D. We browsed through the stores such as Harvey Norman, Courts, PK Computer. We have not browsed leisurely like that for a very long time, since going to Jurong Point meant playing Initial D. I looked at some nice SLR cameras. The damnit "slim and chic" cameras were pathetic. I don't know why girls love them so much. Bigger camera = better quality. I am not very attracted to cameras, but somehow, my subconcious pieced together bits of my memory to form a dream, which I dreamt the day before. It happened like this:

You know those metal crates in departmental stores, where they use to put assorted items on sale such as clothing, shoes and such in? And there will be a sign sticking out of it saying " sale 50% etc"? Yeah, my dream was about those crates, but instead of the normal items, there were cameras dumped in there. Siao right? It was a model of the Canon SLR, which are very good SLR cameras, normally getting a pricing of 2k+ or more. A sign stuck on the crate saying "Sale: $500 only". I almost fainted in joy and paid gleefully for it. The dream ended of me taking pictures using the camera like there was no tomorrow.

Dumb right? Ok anyway back to yesterday. So we were browsing through the stores, then we were in Cyberactive. I looked at the normal things: Sony DVD-RW burners, computer fans and audio signal splitters. Then suddenly, a low and scary voice sounded: Boy, please tuck in your shirt. I was thinking like, weird, who would say such things, so I turned around to ask Xiaotian if he had heard someone, when I noticed the person behind him..

*lightning crackles, thunder booms and sounds from organ pipes drifted*

It was MR NG!!! *shrieks!*

Actually I was more surprised than scared. Wtf is this discipline master doing here in Jurong Point, Cyberactive and looking at PC GAMES?!







What is the meaning of this? Looking at PC Games huh? Discipline master huh? I urged Xiaotian to take shots at my angle, as those did not show his face, but he was too scared and said something like getting sued or something. We went to Sportslink next doors and I exclaimed rather loudly while walking around the store, and asked why didn't Xiaotian take nicer pictures of Mr Ng, as it probably would be the only chance in a life time, when you would meet your discipline master in a shopping centre, in the same shop, at the same time, purely by coincidence, and stuff like that. I was outraged, and said that if I had a camera or a proper camera phone, I would have taken it, unlike Xiaotian, who thought he would be sued. Xiaotian did not say anything, so I continued scolding him. Then, he whispered to me: Hey look behind. I looked behind and it was Mr Ng again! OMG! I did not know when did he come in. It was like he Apparated or teleported or something. Power sia! Wth. He was just behind us looking at some bags casually, while I was there complaining and scolding. It was like so sian diao. Anyway, we went away and after that, he did not appear infront of us again. Thankfully. I told Xiaotian that I should probably keep my mouth shut and not say anything, in case of a third happening of the coincidence of a lifetime. I think if it happened again, I would have died from a heart attack.

Today we had some dance practice for NDP again. Mrs xyz(not actual name. I can't risk putting the real name, with the teachers on watchout nowadays) go kao bei us, and forced 209 in the special formation group. See, 2 practices previously, the boys were playing soccer when it was about time for us to be in the hall. Xiaotian and I were leaning on the railings next to the hall looking at them play. Ms xyz scolded them and then one person, who she assumed to be from 210, because she recognised Joshua whose mother is a HOD, there. The person talked back to her when she said it was time to go up, so she somehow, became very biased to our class. The person is supposed to be from 209. She is this fatass who does not know what she is talking about and makes assumptions and thinks she is always right. I do not see how she got to her position, given her "capabilities". This mrs xyz was not very happy for our class 210 to be in the group of special formation, so she went and told the coach about us. The coach, being fair and all that, compared our attitude to 209, so since our class were united against mrs xyz, we got the position. Apparantly, xyz was not very happy about this and forced 209 in the group this session, although 212,211 and 210 were in the group and everything was set. We even learnt the steps. Then she forced 209 in, causing the coach to change all the plans. What crap. Anyway, the special formation was very simple. Basicially, we just had to form a big square around the normal formation and run around them with flags. The normal formation have to remember the dance steps and do those funny formations you can see from the top view. After only 2 sessions, the coach told us we have already learnt half of the whole thing. So damn slack! Waha.

I will post the pictures of the NTU Motor Fest as soon as I can. I need a long time uploading the pics, as I do not like Hello! Picasa. Your patience is kindly appreciated. And thanks too, for the people who have been tagging my blog and urging my to update, eg. cheryl, junneng, xiaotian and more. Plsplsplsplsplsplspls tag more, I know my blog is not as picutre-ful as Xiaotian's but since I dont have a cam phone, what can I do? So I need as many supporters as possible. Every tag is like gold to me.


Note: Any similarities in the characters described to actual persons living or dead, fat or thin, is very unfortunate. The offensive words such as "fatass" that relates to mrs xyz could be figurative as well as literal, so do not make assumptions and post it on my tagboard, as it could get me into trouble.

Hey all. I made a 210 Timetable in a Word doc and uploaded it on a free host. You can download it at http://h1.ripway.com/xgamesterz/210TableTerm22006.doc

Went to NTU Motor Festival today. It totally rocked. All those cars, drifting and a free arcade. NTU has finally done something right. Saturday and Sunday differed a little. Yesterday, two Silvia S14 and a Lexus IS200 performed stunts while only two Silvias performed today. The Fiat and Mini had a small show too, but were shit. The Fiat was a front wheel drive and had no power, so how can you expect it to drift. It only managed to turn 180 degrees. The Mini was a little better at 170 hp. The best part was the free arcade actually. Xiaotian and I kept queueing up there to play. The others were all lousy at Initial D and just played for fun. There were some pros though, but the minority. Xiaotian and I can be coutned as good among the overall people playing there. Going to post some photos I have taken at NTU, now going to sleep.

Night

Initial D Again

Nothing much happened today. The stupid system is in operation for 3 days already. Every class chairman has to collect a key everyday to lock the classroom between recess, lunch and periods like art and PE, when the students will be out of the classroom. This is supposed to increase security so that our things would not mysteriously disappear. But isn't it a little too dumb? What kind of person would go into a classroom and steal super valuable books, paper, stationery, water bottles, bags and such. Like who does not bring with them their wallets/handphones etc. or use the lockers. The key must then be returned before 3. It is like a complete waste of time, resource, money and I am shouting myself off. And anyway, I have left my Tablet PC in class for who knows how many times, and Wang Jun's was left overnight but it too did not get stolen. You see, we are civilised and if we are to do crimes, we do not do so openly. Maybe piracy. But stealing? Why bother working yourself out and making yourself so nervous, and in the end you get caught. Seriously, I don't know what Mr Foo is thinking. Nobody absolutely would bother stealing a wallet with few dollars worth of coins, and get caught. If you want to do it, go the whole hog. Don't waste your time on small amount of money. Do big and quiet stuff like piracy distribution and retailing. This way both sides are happy. Isn't it better. So the whole lock and key system is totally useless. Anyway if you really are persistent, what is to stop a strong person from prying the door open.

And Chia Lek Ki was so extra. She told me to stand in a corner for laughing at Xiaotian's rolled up pants. Then I sat down on a empty chair nearby and spun my phone. I sent Xiaotian a SMS message "I am sian". Then the girls nearby became interested in my inbox's contents, so knowing girls, they took my phone and read the messages. Ok, so reading messages is normal, but they were clustered around one table, with one holding the phone on it, visible to anyone. Of course, my phone was confiscated.There were several failed attempts of getting my phone back. Joshua and Kenny tried to get the phone out of the plastic bag, but did not manage to. Once, Joshua got the phone and passed to me, and I hid it under the table, but it was noticed by Lek Ki. So it got confiscated again. I got it back today morning, when Chia asked to see me on the way up to class, and told me she would give me a chance and return me the phone. I acted sincere and promised her to be good. And since the key was with me, the 210 people all had to wait outside for me. Haha!

Today is the last lesson of Malay! Yeah! After school Joshua had to meet Mr Cheng for some Math thing. But Mr Cheng refused to let him go even though he finished. So we waited from 1.30 to 2. Then we took a cab to Jurong Point with Chiho. He wanted to buy some comics from Comic Connection. Xiaotian left us for the arcade while we went to eat KFC. OR Fillet rocks. Though a tad too small. Initial D was damn fun! My Mitsubishi Evo III rocks! Joshua bought the same car painted white. My Mitsu is fully upgraded now, so I went to buy Suzuki Cappuccino. Its a cute little car which looks similar to Mazda Miata, only half a size smaller. It is so small and qian bian. I will use it against beginners, kana trashed by small car, sure very angry. It pick up is slow though, so it is only suitable for beginner maps, with long and straight roads, as it has a extremely high top speed, even topping my fully upgraded Mitsu! (Mit = 200km/h Cappu = 215km/h) Xiaotian said my skill improved, though I felt no change. Taught Joshua a shift+brake technique which can be applied in one of the beginners map. So I trashed Xiaotian. He was also trashed last session. My Mitsu U-turned for his Toyota Trueno GT-Apex AE86 to get a 250meter+ advantage twice! - and I still managed to overtake him in the end, though I stopped right before the Finish, as I promised him. toyota is Pathetic! But once he gets his Racing Engine upgrade, we will die like hell.

Ok it is 10 now. Gota sleep

End of Holidays

Time really flies. In a blink of an eye/shift of a gear/jerk of a steering wheel, the one week has passed. This Saturday marks the end of the holidays, as tomorrow will be full of homework. I have not touched any yet. Well, at least the one thing to look forward to is that Mr Cheng is taking over for Design and Tech on Term 2.

Today, went with Xiaotian to play Initial D. I bought another card, so I now have 3 in total. Mazda RX-8, Nissan Skyline 25GT Turbo and the latest addition, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution III. I played with Xiaotian till I got 60k pnts and had a exhaust and ECU chip upgrade. It is really fast, but still not as fast as my 6 gear RX-8. This game is really addictive, for some reason. So far, I have not met a game which would make me spend money on, other than Initial D. Seriously, I don't know how the Japs do it. Sony, Hitachi, Daikin, Fujitsu, Toyota, Nissan, Lexus, Subaru, Suzuki, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi...all those brands, and the list goes on. It is world dominition. Even though they failed to rule Asia in the Occupation, they certainly are ruling over the market now.

Someone suggest music on my site! And anyone has a PS2? Im downloading a ISO file of Initial D Special Stage for PS2 from uTorrent. If Xiaotian burns it into DVD and works perfectly, we would appreciate if you will let us play.

Gota start doing my homework. Sigh, no more slacking.

MIB Skit

Below is the MIB skit which was created at Xiaotian's house. Joshua, Junneng, Xiaotian and I went there after Initial D, and wanted to play tennis/badminton later on. We were feeling sian, so since Xiaotian had guns, swords and fans in his house, we thought up of this funny play. Initially, it was supposed to be just a funny, EMC Monkey type of film/photo-skit etc., but Xiaotian added the MIB storyline later on to provide extra punch to the skit. Though already posted on Xiaotian's blog, I would like to rightfully distribute credit, to prevent misunderstandings. This would be better.
Credit goes to:
Junneng and I. We thought of the idea and acted and
Xiaotian. He directed a little, provided phone cam/props, posted storyline and uploaded it.

Hope everyone enjoys this. If you have enjoyed it once, enjoy it again! And as all 210 people know, this skit has a hidden meaning. Remember to tag my board; my blog desperately needs readership. And Junneng's too. This would definitely encourage more similar productions in the future. Note: Storyline is original and directly copied from Xiaotian's blog. No adjustments were made.

The pictures were resized to prevent connection lag up. The full blown stuff jsut took too long. Please wait a few secs for the pictures.


Knock Knock... MIB officer Wu "I got reliable infomation that the SB alien is living here, as a MIB officer, I must terminate it!!! "




SB alien "Hmmm... Who is it? Hope not MIB, i suppose they cant find me! I look perfectly like a human now. Then wont know that i am SB species"




SB alien "Oh my god! Its really MIB, Senior officer Wu!"




SB alien "Dont kill me, i am not an Alien, my name is Samuel Bob aka. SB!"




Officer Wu "Yes!! I have terminated the SB alien! Hahaha!"




DEAD! But is SB really dead! Think again...




SB revives!




SB alien "I am back alive!! SB species are invincible!!"




Officer Wu "My fingers are powerful!"




"Come on, lets fight!"




Officer Wu "You alien, Dont play play!!"




SB alien "Hahaha....MIB can never defeat the SB species!! Hahaha!"




Officer Wu "You f**king alien, SB....."




SB alien "ORHHHHH..........PAIN!!"




Everyone's DEAD! REAL DEAD!!!

Hope you all enjoyed it!

New Logos!

I created two new logos this morning for my blog.



Gamesterz Logo


Gamefreakz logo

I pixel-drew these using Paint. Please give comments on where I should place them.

And I was wondering if anybody knew how to make favicons for Blogger. You know, those small little icons that appear next to your URL. Thanks

March Holidays

Lo and behold, the holidays are back again! But 'holiday' does not seem to fit the description. As usual we have loads to do. We have 3 projects yet to be completed - Project work, Chinese and Literature, and 2 tests after the hols ends - Chem and Bio. What holiday is this?! We can't even enjoy one week. Ah can't help it. Monday will be spent on Initial D and Chinese Project at Junneng's house. Xiaotian and I will do Project work today by communicating over the Internet. Lit project not fixed yet.

Two days will be put aside to study for Chem and Bio, because they are important.One more day used for Leadership Course. So 5 days are confirmed used up.

But I am damned satisfied with my results

Common Test Final-Ever-Update

Chinese - 57.1
English - 56.7

All results

Art 58
English 56.7
Geography 96
Higher Chinese 57.1
History 85
Literature 66
Mathematics 70
Science 74

Miraculously, the Chinese paper's mark was based only on the composition. So even though Chia Lek Ki marked biasedly against the Boys (Xiaotian only scored 24/35!), I still got 20/35. And my English was rounded off to a decimal place. So my average is 70.35! A whopping A!!!!! Although Wang Jun got 70.46, but at least I caught up with him. I am very satisfied. An A! Woooooo. Can't help for Art though. You must have talent, unless you are talking about digital art. That's easy. Chinese, I just don't have Chinese brains. English, if its not based solely on Comprehension and especiall SUMMARISING, I can bet you I would score. Now I feel like working hard for all papers. This is so much different from last year, so slack. I must strive to be the top ten in class. And everyone must work hard together, so that 210 will not be labelled as a class with lousy academic results any more! Majulah 210!

Blog Skin

I now officially announce Gamesterz blog open to public. The new skin is 100% done up! Any suggestions appreciated. I am also considering moving my blog to gamesterz.blogspot.com.

Today was a fun day. Malay ended 30 minutes earlier. Xiaotian, Joshua and I took a cab t0 Jurong Point for another session of Initial D. First, we went to Bossini to buy a T-shirt, as Joshua did not have one. The cheapest was $9 but Joshua did not like the design and said he would throw it away after use. Xiaotian helped Joshua to look for a cheap but good shirt, and while he was looking, Joshua and I did faces on a mirror. People in the shop must have thought we were crazy. Xiaotian found one shirt costing $16 and told Joshua that if he pays $2, Xiaotian would buy the shirt and lend him to wear his. It was a good deal, as both sides gained. Joshua "rented" the shirt for 2 dollars, and Xiaotian gets a cheap and nice shirt.

We then went to change in one of the toilets. A cleaner stared at us as we walked into one cubicle to change. After we were changed, somebody knocked on the door and told us to come out. Joshua and I went out and saw it was a security guard. He reprimanded us of our behaviour as we were laughing in one cubicle. He said that although we were changing, people might think otherwise. The guard went away after Joshua and I told him we would not do it again. And I bet it was the cleaner who complained. Anyway, Joshua and I were both wearing T-shirts with Nanhua shorts, so we got chased out of the arcade. Very unlucky. First the guard, now the uniform.

We walked around clothing shops and looked at the prices of shorts. The cheapest was 36 bucks and I had 8 in my wallet so it was totally out of my budget. Joshua suddenly thought of an idea. He told us since Xiaotian's house was near Jurong Point, we could take a cab there and borrow 2 of his shorts. He was right. The fare there and back was 8 dollars. Joshua paid the tab. And we proceeded to the arcade. No worries this time. We played Initial D for like 2 hours and my car (RX-8 6-gear manual) had several upgrades. I can now shift as well as Xiaotian. At around 5 we parted and went home. Really a fun day.

Common test update

Chinese: 50/100
Art: 58/100

Total average of 8 subjects is 69.3. Almost won Junneng, but he had another subject, Malay to pull him up. He said that the test paper was only 5 mcqs. WTH.

Ok this post is very short, but bye I have to eat dinner.

New Skin New Beginning

Yeah I know. I am using the same title as the class blog's. Well, can't be helped. Keno and I made the skins at almost the same time. The class blog is up(finally!) and it has a new sleek/cartoonish interface. And it is pure white, unlike my blog, so gloomy and dark. Sorry, but I like black.

Ok this is Gamesterz Beta 2. 90% done. Going to be open to public soon. Of course it is now, but I will mass announce that my blog is ready and up. Currently creating logos for the titles of the sidebar. More comments and suggestions please. My MSN is online daily, for almost 5 hours.

Common Test update

My results so far:
English - 56/100
Literature-66/100
Math-70/100
Science-74/100
Geography-94/100
History-85/100

Art and Chinese yet to be known.

The average so far is 74.5, a large improvment from last year. Assuming that my Chinese and Art both score 50 each, my average would still be a cool 68.3! Waha tell me I Rock!

Now got to make the logos. More updates coming up!

Freedom

the heavy load on my shoulders
finally lifted
the pain that injures
receded
the price of the torture
paid off; found a cure
like a caged bird
or the rabbit in a trap
now free to romp in the pastures of green

Euphoria

Common tests are finally over! After a whole 8 days of continuous mugging, I can now take a well-deserved rest. So far the results are promising, scoring 24/25 for Geo, 17/20 for Hist and 34/50 for Math, a bit disappointing. To those who have not finished their common tests, perservere and you will not regret it. Tomorrow is my big break. Going to play Initial D in Jurong Point X-Zone arcade again. Since I now have so much time on my hands, I am considering making a new template soon, as I am too bored with the current one.

Trying to register at Microsoft to be a software beta tester. Hope to hear good news.
