je library at 12..
was supposed to meet hsin at 10... but i just knew she wldn't go...
studied at the cafe till 5pm until i had to go home to teach vocals...

was super hungry and tired when i reached home though.... but vocal lessons always wake me up... i have a big interest in changing ppl's voices.... saw some significant improvement in my student ryan's voice.. which is always pleasing for a vocal instructor...

played mj wiv nana and dets after tt.... 3 leg for the first time after a long lay off.... played till 12midnight den both of dem rushed off for the last bus.. super hilarious coz both of dem were rushing to the bus stop, and dey both managed to catch their respective last buses..

realised i had an nm test when sch reopened. andi NEVER knew actually.. i keep thinking i only had SS test to study for...
thats for skippin lectures/webcast i guess....super lucky coz jiayang mentioned it... or i presume i wld haf just gone for the test totally unprepared..

which actually brings about the point that despite 5 hours of studyin in je library today, i'm still pretty much screwed bcoz i haven studied much for either NM2209, nor SSA landscapes...

May i be blessed with good results without studying.
Or maybe i can develop photographic memories in like one night.
or mebbe i shld just swallow my notes.

AHWELL..
de blardy wireless keyboard is irritting me...i keep seeing missing alphabets in the things i type... ARGH.
SERIOUSLY... :|

happy leap year...

in case u didnt noe, its the only february in 4 years that there's a 29th. and its happening right now.
leap years are meant to be spent with someone special... so treasure your leap year... :)

project meeting at 11.
used music garage as our project venue... realised the rooms are actually superb for such meetings or studying, etc..... so if anyone wanna find out more u can visit www.musicgarage.com.sg =p

was plannin to go home after project.
but had a totally unplanned meeting with nana...
wad coincidence. she wanted to study. and she was near bugis when she called me, and i coincidentally wanted to study and was at bugis.... :| i love unplanned coincidental outings...

had lunch at V8.. where we decided that maybe studying wasn't a gd option at all.. so we shopped around for her frens bdae present until she had to meet her boyfren...

not wanting to be idling around at home, i came home, and super hastily decided to watch soccer myself at chuachukang stadium. so there i went, all alone, with a ticket in hand to catch the SAF vs Geylang game...

-------
had a lot of random thoughts today esp when sab sent me the sms when she was at vivo....
and also thoughts like....

would you be attracted to a charismatic guy who's like absolutely not good looking?
or a good looking guy who's absolutely not charismatic?

or thoughts like

do girls always expect guys to pay for them?
does not paying for a girl during the first date mean you are ungentlemanly?
is money important when a girl looks for a potential husband?

a new video i just did of lin jun jie's super nice new song =)

just came back from detong's bdae celebrations...
thanks a million for the treat dets! =) we all enjoyed ourselves :)
and hope u liked the guitar hero!

talkin abt detong, and since i cant sleep, maybe i shall do a little gay thing n dedicate a short paragraph towards this fren here of like.....6-7 years? :)

mr S.N.A.G, my winning 11 nemesis, the one i can hardly beat...
thanks for always giving mi certain words of wisdoms and encouragement during bad times... for constantly allowing yourself to be the target of abuse among us guys at times, for organizing outings for us, and steamboats, soccer...
it has been great years of friendship, mahjong, soccer, winning 11 online, offline, etc.
i apologize for any abuse i have hurled at you at some times =p but it really has been great being friends, and watching us grow from boys to men =) having serious guy to guy talks at times, both online and in person.... talks about our future, our future wifes, etc.

happy birthday detong! may ur wishes come true! :)

the last time i actually wrote "dedications" and "paragraphs" on blogs was like years back in secondary school... brings back memories somehow...

aniwae. we had a great dinner treat today... chilli crab, cereal prawns, lots of meat, tofu and vegetables... and not forgettin a fun time at settlers....
before jav, eug, ryan, detong and i headed down to CHIJMES to catch the Chelsea Tottenham carling cup finals....
had nice little talks and debates on r'ships n stuff.... which kind of evoked a lot of thoughts within me.... everything about who i am as a person, where i stand as a boyfriend during relationships, where i stand as a friend when i am in a r'ship, and how i am and behave when i am not in a relationship, so on so forth...

maybe i do give the impression that i do not care at times... and that i'm a very shui bian anyhow person in r'ships... but i think thats a personality i put in front of others just because i never ever want people to know how i feel,
never ever want people to see me as the guy who cries thinking at night, who is able to stare at the ceiling without getting a wink reflecting on things,
without ever thinking that in not wanting people to know how i feel, i actually do hurt others with my brutal insensitive heck-care attitude

maybe i really am an insensitive ass of some sort....

so much to think abt, so much to ponder...
i guess i'm still learning to be a better person each day....

in the process of learning how to control my temper, to put down my ego more often, to treasure people i have around me, to be more tolerant, to never ever leave a girl alone stranded after a quarrel, to watch my words and actions...

till then, its back to my books i guess... preparing for mid terms somehow... project deadlines... etc.

photos will be posted up soon =)

random ramblings...

i feel disattached from school...and despite finding myself with free time at night, i often feel like i have too little time for myself...

5 two-hour webbased lectures i have not watched (because i skipped actual lectures),
projects undone,
a singapore study module mid term exam coming up in one week,
driving lessons to learn and final theory to study,
keyboard and vocal lessons to teach two times a week,
once a fortnight lessons at republic polytechnic,
couple of private students to teach on the rest of my free days,
constantly procrastinated visits to the gym due since 2 wks ago,
song recordings not done,
compositions halfwritten...

its amazing how 24 hours a day seem not enough... on top of that, i have friends i have not caught up with... the guys, close frens like mellissa, kirana and others i havent seen for ages

plus did i actually every mention that i'm beginning to feel the effects of aging... i'm just 22, 23 this yr, but my body seems to be taking a longer time than usual to recover from lack of sleep, bad skin without regular masks, wrinkles appearing here and there, a beer belly, back aches... gdness me... whats happening seriously?

which reminds me... i've always wanted to test out blogger's video upload tools... so here's an overdue video of SMU's virtuoso singing competition, in which charles and i won champions... Singing Robbie Willians, Angels... here's the video =)



meanwhile,
resolutions for the rest of the months:
study,
drive,
have fun,
get fit,
write a fast song,
stop procrastinatin,
get my life up and active again,
stop eating instant noodles lest i lose all my hair,
get a REGULAR income of say $1000 at least by the end of the year.

here's a new addition to my youtube videos...
a song that i wrote...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2icVWgYP-S4

disclaimer: it sounds emo, but it doesnt exactly mean i'm feeling this way now... its just a song =) with a true story attached behind it of course.. and it doesn't necessarily mean i'm still sad and emotional over that phase of my life...

rate it and leave comments... and email me if you would like the mp3 clip... :)
