Hmmm... Tsunamis actually cause so much more death than earthquakes can cause. Recent news reports are all focusing on the killer waves, and the death toll is still rising. The earthquake is so powerful I don't think any weapons in the world can match it. So destructive. So sad.So how? So suddenly people from the western side of Singapore come to my house quite frequently. Boxing already came to my house 3 times in a row, because he bo liao. Haha. Guess he got really nothing to do in his Costa Sands East Coast class chalet, so come to my house as a refugee. Actually he also got nothing to do over here. Lag loh.
NS coming soon. I shall drop this topic.
Gone to Weiyan's house for Christmas party. Watched New Police Story. Played computer mahjong. Ate dinner. Lost money in Blackjack. Go home. Eventful day.
2004 is going to be over soon. A new year is coming. It signifies my birthday is coming!!! Not really excited about it, but I'm still excited about it. Going to be 19 soon. Everybody still 18. Still imagining being in a class for 2 years in which I was one of the youngest.
Suddenly forgot what to blog.
But nvm. Wish everybody a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Sianz... Have turned into a nocturnal slacker these days. I can't even sleep now when I'm tired, but I'm still so energetic in the day. Strange huh? But it's scary, because I'm going into the army soon, so I should change this habit.Recently I'm quite fascinated with this idea of daylight saving. Really can save energy meh? It's so inconvenient to shift the time forward and backward by 1 hour every 6 months. But I don't know about the westerners...
So during Christmas Eve I was having Christmas feast prepared by my sister. So we have this huge turkey sitting in the middle of the table for us to eat. I got the drumstick and it was as long as my palm! Haha. Had fun eating it. I wonder what is the next time I am going to have such a feast again...
Then on Christmas Day I went to watch Kung Fu Hustle. NICE SHOW AH!!! Haha. You guys should go and watch. Then I played 6 hours of LAN, then actually became a member. Siao liao. I think I'm addicted to Warcraft III already. So nice. But I still sux at it. 6 hours is not that long, I don't mind, because I have spent longer hours on Gunbound before, but my eyes is very important. Anyway after that had KFC and played 1.5 hours of pool! Really not sian. So ended up returning home at around 12.30am. All Weiyan's fault.
Slacked at home the whole day during 26 Dec because Boxing and Peng Kiat went to their Council Party. See? I'm travelling to the west more than the east. So strange. I shall call this Journey To The West. Muahahaha. Lame. Not bad, since this gives me the opportunity to rest at home.
Recently, a pirated CD shop just opened near my house. Whoa, so daring, considering that the hsop is so near a Neighbourhood Police Centre. And the whole of inside of the shop and the space outside the shop are all hanging pirated CDs at 6 dollars each. Felt so tempted to buy. But in the end I didn't. I support originals so I don't buy pirated ones. I just download them or borrow from my friends. Best still, my brother will buy them. Heh.
Going army soon.
Birthday coming even sooner. Will I receive any surprise gifts?

Long time never blog liao... It's 2 weeks since I blogged. Quite a few things happened during these few days in the holidays. Strange huh. Few things only. That goes to show that I have not a lot of things to do in the holidays. Damn sian.First thing is I have not started to train yet! What the hell. Less than 2 weeks to going to NS. I don't think I can train until can do 10 pull ups anymore. Think I should be able to scrap through my 2.4...
About one week ago I met the newest best host and best comedian in the East Coast Park Mac. So shocked! They go there to drink coffe and tea only. Yeah... After deliberating for like 10 minutes I decided to go up to them to get their signatures. The first one loh. People was only loitering around them. They are also quite sincere. No stardom aura at all. Too bad I don't have anything suitable with me because I went there for kayaking. So I took my friend's book. So I guess I will be able to upload their signatures only on 27 Dec when he came back from London. Oh yah. Mark Lee face damn smooth! Or is it just shiny?
After that went to Beauty World to lag. Really lag.
Recently keep on travelling to the west whenever I go out. And 90% is go to west mall. Haha. Very sianz so always will have to find something to do. But inertia to go and exercise. the 10% is go the CCK to play table tennis with my friend.
Then about 3 days ago went to play LAN with Peng Kiat and Boxing. Play straight for 3 hours loh... Siao liao. Now I have to agree that Warcraft III is a very good game. Will be playing it quite often I think. But I don't have the game! So perhaps after NS the fever will be gome. Haha.
Yesterday slept from 9am to 11pm. Because I went to night biking the day before. Quite a few people pang seh us because they can't go past their mothers... like Wei Yan and Xiang Min. Then still got Boxing who can't get past his inertia. So end up only 3 people cycling. Zhipeng and Yeong Heng. Grr... Ok loh... We started from 7pm and end at 6am with a butt pain. Go Bedok Jetty but that day got huge fog! Can't see the sun at all! ARGH!!!
Anyway, now to describe the whole journey. The whole journey is quite cool loh, although we quite hamchi don't dare to cycle on the roads before midnight. But after midnight we cheong ah!!! First along East Coast Park, the journey was quite OK, and we are on schedule. Then we cycle beside the runway, observing aeroplanes taking off and landing. The feeling was shiok! And at this point, Zhipeng's bike type puncture!!! Sian! No civilisation nearby, So we have to run/walk about 6km all the way to Changi Village to get a new tyre. And that put us behind schedule for about 2 hours. We ended up leaving Changi Village at around 11pm, and we decided that we cannot continue to cycle the original 80km route we planned.
Hence, we cycle past Hendon Camp and reached the outskirts of Tampines. Then Yeong Heng commented that the outskirts of a town is always more beautiful than the town itself. Maybe that part is underdeveloped loh... I haven't grasped the true meaning behind his comment. Haha. Don't know lah. Then we reached my house at midnight. Yeah. Money replenishment.
We reached Bedok Reservoir shortly after that, and were observing the Bedok Reservoir at night. Frankly speaking I have never seen Bedok Reservoir at night also, and it appears to be very calm and peaceful. At night mah. Then we climbed the Bedok Reservoir Hill which is not very high, and observed the reservoir from the top. The feeling was shiok. How nice would it be if we can see the sunrise from here...
Then we cycle through Bedok Reservoir Road and Jalan Eunos to reach... Geylang Road. Of course we came here for its renowned food lah... But along the way always can find scantily-dressed women... along with middle-aged men... Don't know lah.
The moment we stepped into Geylang, at Lorong 39, we saw the chuan2 shuo1 zhong1 de Rochor Beancurd. We thought this was the chuan2 shuo1 zhong1 de best dou4 hua1 in Geylang, so we sat down to enjoy the beancurd. A point to note, from this point onwards, every time we sat down, Zhipeng will give a "Ahhh.." sound, signalling that sitting is very comfortable. We cycled our butt and thigh pain liao loh...
After that we proceeded along Geylang Road... Then at Lorong 15, we stopped by a shop to eat a stall's Bak Gut Mee, Prawn Mee and Wan Ton Mee. My father recommended one, so we decided to try. The beancurd is an appetizer, and this is the main course. It was quite nice lah, at least better than the food court thing we eat. And cheaper too. Then we made a discovery. The real food heaven actually lies beyond Lorong 15! Between Lorong 1 and Lorong 15. Felt cheated. Around Lorong 9 we found the chuan2 shuo1 zhong1 de best beancurd. Felt cheated again. To full to stop and eat.
When we left Geylang it was already 3am, and we have only cycled 40km, so we confirmed cannot cycle the whole 80km. So we proceeded down Victoria Street, Hill Street, taking a rest at North Boat Quay, and to Police Cantonment Complex. Then we deliberated about jay-walking in front of the Police HQ, but we didn't in the end. But finally we still did, because there was simply no traffic. Ah... Basically after this we were cycling along the road most of the time already... Then we turned into Tanjong Pagar, past Padang and went through Suntec, Beach Road, and past Nicoll Highway, to National Stadium, across the Kallang River, along Tanjong Rhu Road, into Meyer Road, past Weiyan's house at around 6am, sent an SMS to him, along Amber Road, then finally reached Marine Parade Road. Haha... Basically along here not a lot of things to describe lah... So we were just enjoying the night CBD area along the way.
Yeah!!! We finally completed the 57.5 km route! Haha... I would like to thank Zhipeng and Yeong Heng for making this trip possible. Quite pleased with myself to nagivate through Singapore, although the route is mainly the Southeastern part of Singapore. Didn't go past the cemetery as we have intended, but nvm lah.
Haiz. Buttache. Now Christmas wish: I hope to get out of my inertia to start training... My hands still flabby flabby one. Too used to typing liao I guess.
Will be updating soon again.

It seems to be a conclusion to everything, except the friendships created in Hwa Chong...Have recovered a little bit already, a big Thanks! to everybody who is so concerned about me!!! Hmm I wonder who that sounds like...
Felt very proud today when I spent 6 hours solving a problem... actually not 6 hours but I got the problem 6 hours ago, and I suddenly thought of an idea while I was dozing off in the bus, and it worked!!! The question goes like this:
13,14,95,62, .......
Find the sum of the first 20 terms.

Hope the rest of the holidays will be more enjoyable...

Sianz... Recently I haven't been getting a feeling of what I have been doing. Actually I have this feeling even during the A levels, because I think I have been numbed by it, and I don't think I have recovered from it. As a result, I am in the mood of doing nothing.I know I have to start doing things someday...
