hallllo nus

just to say hi to all those who still read this.. haha

NUS engin has a total of 1 billion students. Half of china, half of india... engin fac for you... haha... the past few days have been interesting. met many people in nus and surprised to see quite a number of familiar faces in engin. i should go on and bitch about nus but i'm too lazy. just waiting for gillian to finish her british council stuff and then going to meet her. i'm so happy that she's back... but i'll try to avoid sounding mushy... basically we've been spending all our time with each other and i'm really happy :D

in my hall room now. basically it's deserted... becuase everyone is at orientation... hehe... and next week is engin orientation which justin and i have excitedly signed up for. but they told us there's too many guys (really?? didn't notice that) so we're unfortunately on the waiting/ can't be bothered list... haha...

really unpacked fast.. quite surprised at the amount of things that i have compared to the size of the room... i've only filled 1/4 of my cupboard with all my clothes.. you mean i'm supposed to have that much of stuff?? but i want more drawers... i like to put things away... need a file cabinet (like in ns :P) to dump all my stuff in it... haha... hmm, hopefully staying in hall will be fun...

24

finished watching 24... i enjoyed the season though it can be quite irritating to keep on waiting till the next episode to know what's happening. I don't think i can watch 1 episode at a time... haha...

spent the last week with gillian and it's been pretty good. it's great that we are still as boring as ever and quite content with doing nothing and just sitting at home watching tv. but school is going to start soon, going to nus to pay for hall today, engin stuff on tuesday, math revision lectures on wednesday, matriculation on thursday and another revision thingy on friday. hopefully i'll have time to move in and stuff... and that there aren't too many orientation activities so that i'll have my evenings free. I mean, it's not like i don't want to participate in hall stuff.. i have 2 semesters ahead of me so can't it wait? Gillian is only going to be here for another 4 weeks... so leave me alone KE7!!! and been reading up on the engineering program. 4 years for b.eng hons which they claim is equivalent and recognised as a m.eng in UK. hmmm... suspicious it seems... investigate i shall

17

yeap, i have roughly 17 days till the start of school. Been filling up forms and stuff. Interbank Giro, tuition grant, form of acceptance... gillian's back :) so that'll mean i'll be spending less time on the computer which is good. Matriculation in a weeks time and some math revision classes(i really need those) sometime next week.

Was quite terrified when i had to go for dinner with gill and her family. But luckily gill and fiona kept their dad busy so i could somewhat go unnoticed. haha... things have been good since she's back. just like how dinesh bought his camera from ebay, i finally got my order from UK... hahaha... see ya guys soon... or maybe not :p

6!!!


6 more hours!!!!

just 6!!!

:(

yesterday, daryl showed me something and it troubled me. I hope the person who wrote it didn't mean that. but i do not regret what i did. If you think that daryl and i have nothing better in life than waste our friday afternoons to come down and screw little kiddies like you, then you're sorely mistaken. I just have to say that you'll soon see the results of the effort you have been putting in and what our help has done. Sure you won't see it know but everything takes time. And rest assured, daryl and i will be there to congratulate you IF you do well. Despite my efforts to try and be a nice guy and daryl to be the other half(heh), i don't think it's working. So i guess until you(and the others) get to know us better, just accept the fact that we're going to be there for much longer than you think.

uni

i'm surprised at how much i don't know what i'll be doing in uni. i don't even know the exact duration of the course. i feel like i'm just following the crowd.. spent the last hour trying to find out at least some details about my course on the internet... nothing... i feel so dumb

Due to the limited capacity, your application for a room cannot be granted for this semester. You may still apply to be in the waiting list when the waiting list application submission is open.

updates

well, it's hard to blog when there's nothing much going on in life right now. Spent last thursday with hubert, daryl, quanxing and rubin. Had lunch at dan ryans. It was hubert's last day as a civillian for the next 2 years.... haha... and the last time we're going to see quanxing till he comes back though he kept on saying we're a bunch of faggots and he's not coming back to singapore anymore.. but he always says that.. haha



we played swat for quite sometime... daryl's friend gave us a ride to cine and then joined us... causing some problems with our plans.. but we made do... caught a cab home with rubin and somehow the amount i paid for when taking the cab at 10 compared to taking one after midnight is almost the same! i don't know man. only like $4 difference?

anyway, friday went to asha's place and saw anand for the first time in 3 years? yeah, still the same though a bit rounder i guess... played zombies!! it's so fun.. the next time s11 has a stayover i'm going to bring that game. Surprisingly niron won both times.. haha.. the second time was a really good one. surprised all of us. got home on saturday and was really tired but managed to drag myself to go swimming in the afternoon.

well, that's mostly what's been happening.. other than me playing computer all day... i think for the past 7 months where i've been on mc and clearing leave till after ORD, i've averaged 5 hrs on the comp a day... including the month i spent in england where i ALMOST didn't play computer games. well, the past 7 months have been really relaxing. No reposibilities, no work, nothing.

Things i have done:
1. Watched 4 seasons of the transformers i.e. 18 dvd's
2. Almost done with the 1st season of 24 (which btw is quite an interesting show)
3. Watched a hell lot of other movies
4. Not learnt to play the guitar
5. Went to England for 5 weeks
6. Took 3 months to complete the scrapbook
7. Gained and hopefully lost some weight
8. Completed FIFA Street, DOW(twice), LOTR: BFME(twice), DOOM3
9. Gave up on Half Life:2 and Mercernaries
10. Scratched the car twice
11. Went back to SJI to help out with the scouts

Basically i think i've really enjoyed myself and now school's going to start in 20 days? Which is really worrying because up till now i don't even know what i'm supposed to do. Awaiting the matriculation package and guess i'll see how things go. Somehow i don't want school to start...
