Inter Varsity Polytechnic games

Heya people, juz got back from NTU for the Taekwondo IVP games. Before I start I would like to thank all those who supported me. Exspecially My mom, dad and sisters you guys spur me on. To Sir Din thank you for coaching me and last but not least to the SPTKDC thank you for everything.

OK to the more detailed part. I've got bad, good and fantastic news. The bad news first, I got disqualified in my 2nd match for kicking my opponent in the face. Well tough luck. Anyway I should have won that match. He kicked my face too but he got away with a minus half point( Kiong-Go). I in the other hand wasnt that lucky.

Anyway the good news is I got BRONZE. which is much better than leaving with nothing at all. If I hadnt been disqualified I might have gone on and win either Silver or Gold.

Next the fantatic news. My 1st match I actually won with a superb score of 13-0 with the exception of having 3 kiong go. But still I actually TKO(tactical knock out) my opponent. My very first IVP sparring, my very first bout, my very first victory. What a way to bring up my confidence. Before my match I was literally shaking. My legs felt like jelly, my heart was pounding so hard it felt like jumping out of my mouth, my stomach was so full of butterflies that I couldnt eat my lunch. Which in the end I only ate 3/4 of it.

Next my injuries. Argh..... got a swollen right middle finger. Bruises on both my shins, right hand, both arms, both feet, aiyah in fact almost my whole body injured. Including my right eye where the guy kicked my face.

Anyway no use whining now. Its too bad that I got disqualified. Next time maybe. But none the less happy that I get to bring home a medal.

Aiight my off to eat my burger. Ciao....

I guess the rumours were true....

Lets just say that I have a knack for putting 2 and 2 together. I'll solve it in the end, its only a matter of time. But this time I wasn't all out to solve it. I didnt even want to know the truth. In fact I tried not to think of it. I knew the answer way before it's only that I didnt want to believe in it. I prayed hoping that its wrong. I even gave myself a false answer. Yes I was in denial. I admit it. Even my best friend tried to tell me. I guess he said the answer without realising it. Sorry man for not believing in you. I knew deep inside you were right. I just cant accept the fact. Someone once told me the "truth hurts" yes it sure does. Even more than getting your butt kick in Taekwondo.

Clues were everywhere. Its either I ignore them or I didnt know about it. This give/curse, has helped me alot. But however today, It serves a different purpose. Sometimes its best not to know the truth, Most of the time its the only solution. As the saying goes, "You can't hide the truth forever".

Its been a hectic week for me. A string of bad luck. Step on a piece of glass, got scolded on the phone by a friend's mother for something I have not done( ma'am its not my problem that your son mix with bad company. He's your responsibility. Vent your anger at someone else like YOURSELF for instance), Friends not trusting each other, Being ignored, teased, humiliated each and every day. I know that you did it for fun. But there's a limit to each and everyone. I have pride too you know. I have been nothing but a best friend to you. If it weren't for me, you would have been the only malay boy in class. I treated you as a brother and you toss me aside numerous times. I know that you are a straight A's student and im the borderline case. I ask for help but you seem reluctant to help. Instead you just threw my paper aside. Hey comeon man If i dont pull thru this year. You can find someone else to do your final project with man.

This year, I gave valentine's day a miss. Partly because I have no one to celebrate it with. Partly because I can't be bothered with buying presents and in the end you didnt get the girl. Partly because Im broke and partly because I was having a bad week. Plus V.day has lots of memories for me.

That's it cant think of anything to write anymore.
  1. Cant think
  2. Cant be bothered
  3. Wanna watch TV
  4. Bloody tired
  5. Fed up with myself
  6. The truth hurts
  7. all of the above

Good bye

Sunburn Agrh!!!!!!!!

Firstly I would like to wish all my chinese friends a Happy Chinese New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai. Hong Bao Na lai.... hahaha

Ok to today's event. Went for a family picnic with my cousins and their families at East Coast. It was damn crowded. Tents were literally pitch up right next to each other. Couldnt find a suitable spot near carpark D1 where we usually go because the toilet was near. In the end we end up almost at the end of East Coast at Carpark G. We were lucky that the area wasn't that pack but the bad part was it was quite a distance to the toilet. But we can't have too much of a good thing right. Quickly pitch our tent and ate lunch. Was damn hungry. Then off to the sea with my sisters and cousin. Had a lot of fun. Its been awhile I went swimming. Had so much fun that I didnt even put on any sunblock and the price to pay, SUNBURN all over my face. Its aching alot now. Juz applied some face cream and the pain subside a bit.

Stayed at East Coast till about 5 plus then head down to Changi Airport to juz walk around. My cousin, sisters and Me pretended to be passengers waiting for our flight. It was damn funny. Even my Mum and aunts can't resist in joining the fun. My dad and uncles juz relax one corner haha. After about 2 hours of touring the airport, we parted ways. My family and I headed to West Coast for dinner. Had beef horfun. Most of the stalls were close except for those man by the malays and indians. Not to mention the foodcourt was damn packed. So the stall vendors were rushing about. There we in such a hurry that the indian guy who serve us our noodles was trembling. I mean his hands were trembling when he handed our food. He even dropped the plate of green chilli my mother requested. After that small incident, before he could place our noodles on the table my dad and I reached out to grab the plate from his hands. Haha I guess my dad was thinking the exact same thing as I am.

After dinner we headed back home. Took a cold shower and now here I am updating my blog. My face starting to hurt again. OUCH... Well looks like im not the only one, my sisters are also suffering the same fate as I am. Syarah looks so cute. She has very fair skin plus she's chubby add those red sunburn marks on her face and u get those rosy-rosy chubby cheeks which u can't resist to pinch. hahahhaha.

I guess thats all I have to say about today. Once again Happy Chinese New Year.... bye

Fortune, Fame. Mirror vain. Gone Insane, But THE MEMORY REMAINS

Yesterday had quite a nice time. It was Normah's bdae. Hairul organize a surprise bdae party for her, kinda sweet of him, at East Coast. I was told to bring the the paper plates, cups and utensils. Plus I had to be there early to book a place. Initially I thought that I would be there alone like an idiot looking for a place. But somehow god must be smiling down at me.

Hairul wanted me to invite Liz to the party. To be honest I didn't think she would wanna go but since Normah's her niece, I juz ask her along. Haha to my surprise she agreed. Wanted to ask her if we could go together to the party but I held that thought. Maybe she might want to bring along her boyfriend. But to my surprise well she ask me to go with her to the party. Well I was filled with mix feelings. I do still harbour some feelings for her but she's taken so she's forbidden fruit.

Met up with her at City Hall and did a little scouting for Normah's present. I actually had wanted to go to parkway to look for the present since it was near to East Coast, but Since Im meeting her at City Hall might as well head down to City link mall. It was a good thing that we went to City Link mall or else we might bump into Hairul and Normah at Parkway then it would spoil all the fun. haha. So there we were two empty headed people without a single idea in the world what to buy for the birthday girl. Message Hairul for some help. He replied that Normah likes Chocs, Cat, Blue and anything cute. So where can we find a Cute blue cat that likes to eat chocolate??? hmm. Haha we were hopeless plus kinda broke. So we settled for a nice chocolate. Pathetic right. haha but at least we got the chocolate part. Then bought a nice blue paper bag. Note the blue. Pasted a cute card on the bag. Cute part check. But alas we couldn't find a cat.

We had a good time, actually I had a good time looking for the presents. Im not sure about her. I hope she does. Hey I gotta enjoy it while it last, even if it was for a day. Im sorry but I gotta say this. Boy I really miss going out with that girl. She being her clumsy self. Banging her head on the table. Poor table. haha. Actually I knew it was gonna happen. But somehow rather I held the wrong part of her head. Spider sense working all right but judgment zero. haha. I felt uneasy the first few minutes being with her. Kept telling myself that she's taken and all. But after awhile, somehow the ice got broken and it felt like old times. Me teasing her non-stop.

Reached East coast on schedule. Around 5. Somehow rather, Adam was earlier. So told him to book a place. He got a place olrite. A place to eat in Mcdonalds. Haha. So me and liz went around scouting again for a place. Found BBQ pit 21 empty use it as a temporary place. Was hoping for the indian family in the small hut next to the pit to go off. So we sat baking in the hot sun praying that they would move off. In the end they did. We moved in, claim the place was ours then went off to eat. Liza's been complaining she's hungry, not to mention I was too. Hadn't had breakfast of lunch. All I had was a few "Jemput-Jemput".

Soon every came set up the place and we wait for the love birds to arrive. We waited and waited and waited. Haha ok lah it wasn't that long. Hairul came with Normah blindfold. When the blindfold were opened, we sang her the birthday song. Boy was she surprise. She was speechless. All I heard was "uh", "ah" from her. Haha ok it sounds obsence. But not a word came out of her mouth. Haha it was pretty funny. The party went on and slowly one by one everyone went off. Zheng Kai with Cindy, Hairul with Normah, Norana with her friend, Vani unfortunately alone, Aizzad with Adam and Liz with me. Saw her off at city hall. Wanted to accompany her home but she refuse. But as a guy I feel that its not really nice to let a girl go home on her own at night. But she assured me that she'll give me a buzz when she reached home. I reached home first waited for her call no call. I called her and found out she's on her way home, walking. So ok. Safe and sound.

Couldn't really sleep I was hoping the day would go on. I didnt want the memory to end. Watched a little dvd. Then went off to bed. So I took advantage of the time I had. Enjoyed myself. Turned it into a memory and imprint it deep into me. As metallica would say it "THE MEMORY REMAINS..........."

ciao people......
