arghhh >_<>
coming weekend is going to be very busy for me. lots of things to do, lots of things to settle, but i only got 2 days worth of time. sometimes i wonder if i am doing much more than what i am capable of... i wonder if i could go back to my secondary school days of sleeping at 10pm and waking up at 7am everyday, wonder if life could be so much more simpler, just me, my friends and pure friendship. sometimes i wonder what does it take to be a true friend to someone or for someone to be your true friend. am i too superficial, am i too insensitive. sometimes i wished everyone could think less complicated. i am a simple person. tell me what you want and i will do it for you. don't drop me hints or whatsoever cos there is only that little or minute chance that i might be able to catch your hint. call me insensitive or whatsoever. i don't care. i am who i am. sometimes i feel sick trying to appease to everyone's request. this person want this, this person want that. there are so much needs to cater to. and when things are not done properly, they blame it on you. now i think i should not bother about such people anymore. i had spent enough time and energy on such things already. i just want my life back. some time and energy for myself.
sundown marathon is coming in 3 months time. i have made up my mind and decided to register for it. 42km starting at 2359 hrs. torturous. but i love it. another race for me to look forward to.
studies have been proceeding okay for me thus far. i am beginning to see a ray of hope in maths. so i have decided to peservere on and hope for the best. of course i will try to consult my seniors and practice more questions.
see. life is full of choices. everyday i make a choice in hope for a better tomorrow. today i chose to study maths and read my lab manual so that my thursday could be freed up for some other stuff. i chose to do multi-sports so that i can become fitter. there are so many choices to make in life. sometimes you wouldn't know if you have chosen the correct one. i have decided to stay in KR next semester. hope this is the correct choice. i am still deciding if i should join aquathlon or do some other stuff... probably be mor involved in hall next year... still deciding if i should completely detach myself from science for the coming semester.
just feeling a little irritated today from the lack of sleep yesterday.

productivity rocks>
i held seldom been so productive before. haha. i felt so good today. revised my chem and half of my maths today. glad that i did not drop my maths module as i started to feel that i began to understand a little of what the lecture notes is talking about. all i need to do now is to practice more questions and probably consult my seniors. then i had tuition just now, where my student's mum actually came in and had a small chat with me. parenting must be difficult. you want the best for your child but yet sometimes your child just would not give his best. well, like what his mum said, ' i will leave my child to take his own initiative to study, and if he don't, so be it. but i do hope that he would feel the pressure from the approaching exams and hope that he will start getting the jitters, feeling nervous and start working hard.' haha... yeah... his attitude has definitely tuned for the better since last year. hopefully he will do well for exams this year=)
yesterday talentquest band finals had been wonderful. some bands were excellent, some were good and some were only so-so. as for the crowd, its again the same bunch of people from science who always hang out together, the mc members and probably a few of the bands' fan clubs. then again, one starts to ponder when will science club actually really reach out to the masses and when will her members even be able to attend such functions free of charge instead of having to pay the full ticket price to make up for the event fundings cos it seems that science club events don't seem to be able to cast a net wide enough to get a participation rate high enough to cover her events' costs, and it ends up with her members 'sponsoring' their own projects. lol... haha.. something that all of us, and myself should really wonder... whats wrong with our projects, our people, or is it just science.
enough said for today. i am feeling rather energetic now. will try to do up another video. thanks to the alcohol consumption yesterday, i was actually feeling rather groggy this morning... lol.. this is the kind of aftermath you get after not drinking totally for like half a year... haha... but well! healthy lifestyle man! i love the good old uncle style of drinking kopi or teh at coffeeshop.=P
and tomorrow's school! omg!

nus biathlon 08 pictures>
pictures from nus biathlon 08
just returned from sg biathlon 08. despite the rain, everything still went on smoothly. managed to shave off 5 mins from my nus biathlon timing and did a 1hr 31min. although i did not hit my intended target time, i still thought i had put in a good amount of effort for this race. well, just gotta train harder now for the triathlon season coming the mid of this year. now i have to decide if i should join the sundown marathon in end may... think think...
sg biathlon was totally different from nus biathlon.. haha... but such comparisons would be unfair to nus given their very limited funds and manpower. sg biathlon has totally impressed me from their organization, structure to the conduct of the event. everything looks just so efficient and beautifully done from the third person's point of view. good job to the navy and nus keep up the good work too!
