Losing the motivation to do anything productive seems like the worst thing you can have for a holiday week like this.
Wakes up each day at noon, stares out of your window and you think “Hmmph, I better do some work today.” You pick up your pen, but start looking at your computer screen. Surf the usual sites the umpteenth time. And you look out of your window again. Got nowhere to go. Ok, maybe got a new watch or long pants some evening.
Then you spend the next 2 whole days doing nothing worth remembering. A run at the park wouldn’t solve the problem because its just a matter of 1/48th of a day.
Inspired to design. Looking through websites and closed the tabs one by one because they looked boring. Thought of editing this theme right here, but you don’t got money online. A website of my own? Not till I get my basics right somehow.
I realised that its not that I do not have enough time.
Street sales was pretty successful yesterday with a lot of enthu volunteers, so the remaining exco people just had a big walk around Bugis. We earned around 1k+ yesterday alone, hehe.
More importantly, I squeezed through the whole Comex after the sales, for around 2+ hours. And yes, Vaio FW12G! D:
I think the main reason I bought it was for its design + 16.4 inch screen lol. The remaining specs are pretty normal, with a below-average graphics card. Plus it came with quite a few freebies I have no use for… And Junjie bought an Asus laptop with a graphics card with 1024mb dedicated video RAM *faints*
Thanks to Hu Yuan, I also had to squeeze through Level 6 to get him some stuff, but I got myself 320Gb portable HDD which only has 40Gb of space remaining as of now :O
Not to forget spending the whole night yesterday trying to configure and transfer files to this sleek laptop till 2.30am ):

The “great-ness” of Term 3 has finally ended. The last few weeks had been pretty crazy and mundane, thus the lack of any interesting post. But today was much better, with all the celebrations, visiting high school teachers, outings and such. Though I only met Mdm Chan, and the rest were nowhere to be seen =/
Not to forget the ever-cute Wall-E. Haven’t watch any animation movies recently, but I thought this was a pretty cute one :9
So moving on to slack for the weekend at least, with a desperate attempt to get a new laptop at Comex..
Maybe its more of a running trip to Indoor Stadium ><
After watching Mr Bean’s Holiday + realised my complete inability to play Guitar Hero at Hu Yuan’s house, I had to rush to the Indoor Stadium, only reaching Kallang MRT at 8pm. Having no sense of direction, I took 40 mins to get there, having to run like 1km.
So I missed the first song.
Haha, but the whole concert was great, especially for my first time attending one (: Great classic songs like 我要飞, 我们的爱, Fly Away, Lydia, and many more to be listed. Wasn’t that high throughout the concert, probably because I was quite tired. But the atmosphere was great to sing along (and hear lots of scream, pity my ears..)
Not to forget the guest appearance by 萧敬腾! His hit songs are pretty good after all, even though I didn’t start out liking them when I first listened on MTV Mandarin.
The whole thing ended at 11pm, but I took an hour to walk back to MRT, only to realise I missed the last train and had to take taxi back ._.

Rawr, is it how term 3 is supposed to be?
Loads of uncompleted stuff that I can’t wait to complete. Loads of movies I can’t wait to watch.
Mugging in Jurong East library last Saturday, which was pretty good cas I got people to teach me (:
Sales on Sunday, followed by gift shopping at Plaza for August babies, where Shuyang seriously needs to learn how and what to buy =O
Followed by a selection interview just now at MOE Tower Block, where u choose which level to go to before entering the lift ._. Being the first to be interviewed, I went in and perhaps rambled a whole lot of crap till the interviewers were stunned.

I can’t explain how I really felt after reading the latest 2 blog posts on my beloved Google Reader.
I thought I remember telling myself earlier today: If so many others could stand strong, no matter how physically ill or young they were, why couldn’t I do the same?
I can do better. I shall do better. no matter what others say.
But is it all that hard to be done by me? Perhaps oscillations is harder bleh.
Its not like what I’ve written has any relevance to my 1st sentence. But I just needed to write it.
so I can get back to Physics.
No offence but if you read something that goes by “I don’t think my heart can take it anymore.” while reading a chapter you can’t understand for months, I seriously think you can’t continue.
Went to watch NJC Guitar Concert at Esplanade Recital Studio on Thursday night with Woonyang and Junjie. Nice and cosy place of around a quarter of that of audi’s size (: The performance was pretty nice, but the tickets are overpriced :X
Yesterday was fun.
Had free hotdogs, muah-chee and candy floss after school, and the pleasure of seeing people get dunked with water or flour on their faces.
After school, Jontay, Tiantian, Shaoyue and I went to RV (aka I crashed RV for fun). Looks pretty nice though, and had the chance to enter Jontay’s container classroom, hehe. Perhaps I could start imagining how my life would be like if I didn’t appeal 4 years back :S
And a good boy has decided to help out in a SL project by Tiantian and other batchmates. We went around last afternoon trying to ask small shops in Bugis whether they could help sell our shopping bags, but no positive response ): So we ended up buying art materials for today!
Yet, it was more fulfilling today when we went to a children ward in NUH to gather artworks drawn by them. And I finally touched crayons and drew some decent cute stuff (: So much for having art lessons till early Primary.
I’m not a service-learning type of person, but at least I’ve made the 1st step (:
Started out yesterday with Red Cliff aka Chibi. Some said it was nice, some said it wasn’t. But maybe I tend more towards the latter (: Next part? Probably.
Then I went shopping around Marina Square and Citylink Mall with Hu Yuan, when he’s feeling rich and wanted to get a watch, a pair of sandals but settled for a pencil box =/
BBQ-wise, it was a bad evening to start with. Raining =( Had to walk such long distances between the pavillions and we barely started barbecuing until around 10pm. But the food wasn’t that bad though.
The very tired me could almost start sleepwalking when the remaining 8 of us decided to go for Dark Knight at Downtown East. The best part was when I bought 8 tickets for Red Cliff instead of Dark Knight, then luckily Woon Yang realised I bought the wrong ones .___. But the movie was really nice though, one of the better english movies I’ve seen this year (:
Rawr, I better reconsider overnight outings in the future..
