Sitting and Waiting

First of all. don't know if he reads this or not
but i'd like to give a shout out to Ruilong my old bud :) for turning the big 18 today
happy birthday mate

we've known each other for all these years. was kinda looking back at primary school photos and stuff yesterday . but i don't know how to scan it up onto my computer. not even sure if my printer has a scanning function
well if i ever find out how to scan up some old photos . i'll put it up on my blog one day and share a part of my life with you guys

Well its nice to be checking my blogroll and seeing new posts being put up. havent been doing much today apart from just reading everyone's blogs and reading through the boredofstudies site
wow xD that forum is like a place for people to brag. this lyounamu kid is incredible. talking about state rankings and everything. his ego is phenomenal
i actually just wanna meet this guy out of curiousity
while everyone else is living it up after HSC xD he's guarding the forums at home posting every 5 minutes.
whenever i google something up related to work (usually english) google results always turn to boredofstudies
and i see lyounamu going on and on xD

well what happened today and yesterday:
while people were at usyd and doing their jap exams . i went to school to do a little bit of study with connie. friday night my friend who does jap came over to ask my mum some stuff about japanese, in preparation. i was going over her transcripts and everything she typed up :O crazy. there were like 15+ pages, and she was just tryna memorise it all. realised i forgot all my kanji

damn cityrail had dodgy track work again. so i had to drive to burwood to catch the train to epping. and then when i got to epping, the next bus was in 30 minutes. so i decided to walk to carlo. since carlo court was on the way anyway and i need to get some lunch. the route wasnt as long as i expected. i remembered the time when me and benny werent allowed on the kings school bus early in the morning for some reason in year 7, so we decided to walk to school from epping. and it took forever.

managed to get a catch of the view from the bridge thingo that i crossed along the way.
finally got to school. it was so hot. my jeans were burning up
didnt do that much study. just showed connie a coupla questions in maths
went off the guan where he taught us some funky stuff. and headed back to epping
got to epping. 27 minutes till next train. great. weekend transport is pretty dodgy
so i just keep contemplating whether or not to get something to eat. i knew mum had bought duck. but itd be ages till i got home. bumped into betty on the way who just finished intuition.
so in the end i get a whole pizza which was slightly undercooked . that dominos pizza place was going off . they were so busy with phone orders and everything.


days are so good now. wish i had a car so i could go places and do lotsa sporty physical activities. instead im stuck at home half-heartedly browsing through math papers. yesterday night. stayed up till 2 (which is normal for some of you) talking to someone i havent seen in 8 years. she was in my year 4 class, and she still looks the same. looking forward to meeting her and catching up soon

for now that is it :) ill try to have a more exciting life for future posts
seeing everyone going out to city and concerts and stuff. dayum
take care

Happy Days

Well today was a pretty eventful and fun day.
first of all. i have finally finished my "art" project .

guess it turned out alright, except the reflection turned out kinda dodgy cause i got lazy and just drew whatever. hands went all blue after smudging so much so switches and stuff around my home have a bit of blue covered now

looking to be giving that to someone else to do whatever they want with it. cause i dun feel like keeping it

anyways school days these days are very enjoyable. no work. everyone is in good spirits (kinda) and we just don't do much in class
maths was the bomb with woodhouse's little lecture xD which perrins hated on for a bit in class
and english was awesome too with the luvos we took with steele xD hahaha.

its so funny introducing steele to the "new technological world" with stuff like facebook, luvo pictures and various movies. oh that reminds me. need to watch the reader. and also track down her 17 year old daughter.
sadly noone really listens to speeches which is a bit rude, but we do other things instead

got some results back. won't go through that

after school me and victor hit up epping. get the usual burger and chips
then head off on 548 to epping basketball courts. its nice to get out and do some relaxing stuff instead of staying at home and surfing computer for ages which is still ok.
get there. play around for a bit and then join the game of pick up basketball
one of the guys said he used to go to ruse but didn't really recognise him.
although he did look quite similar to owen tsao if anybody knows him.
played well. won our first 2 games with victor hitting a fluky 3 with the ruse guy all over him. and then lost the last one so we started heading back to epping station

on the way. we spot a basketball ring at a relatively low height attached to the hut of someones garage . victor decides he wants to have a go at dunking on it xD
makes a bloody mess of it and we get the hell out of there before anyone notices. halfway through running. we realise noones in the house so we contemplate whether or not go to have another go. but literally seconds later a car comes and pulls into the house. and we run like hell xD

i love this time of year. when the cicadas or crickets come out and chirp
and the birds start chirping too
do you know what i mean? when you start to hear those noises, you truly begin to feel like summer has started to begin
and long days until 8 . so so nice. looking forward to when the day will get longer
i reckon looking at sunsets is more nicer than looking at sunrises
just my opinion though.

looking forward to tomorrow. going for a run around the school in the morning . and who knows what happens later
until then
take care everyone
be happy :)

waiting for love to come my way

as gay as this is gonna sound.
i reckon. that if you found the 'perfect person'. nothing else would really matter in the world.
but is that even possible? is it really possible to be happy for a long time with the one person. damn movies and their happily ever after story tales
gives us hope. which is fake
i needa see proof before i believe xD

but who knows. i guess we're too young to know

today afternoon was pretty fun. felt like year 10 again. mucking around playing oz tag and stuff. went back into common room and watched a bit of 'love actually'
although i think it's better with a loved one or by yourself without people who've seen it before.

just finished watching harold and kumar. not bad a movie if you're just looking for a bit of a laugh and nothing much else. not one of those epic deeply emotional ones

it's one of my friends birthdays today. and couple of the other crew came to surprise him at his place. but its too late now xD so i'm not able to go.
been working on this drawing project of mine. here's a little progress ive done


yesterday


today
now my hands are all bluish from rubbing on the artwork. should be done in one more day. although its looking a little bit dodgy . my colour pencils have all been coloured out blunt and i dun have a big sharpener

mum made wonton for dinner

which was yummy. and here i am sitting here now typing

for a second i though i lost all my blog stuff cause of my mum's incompetent ability to use firefox
she closed all the tabs in one shot and i thought i lost it all. but thank god blogger saves this stuff.

enjoying school right now. looking forward to double free tomorrow
take care all.

I can't take it anymore.

Damn. i'm gonna rant a little bit

Its getting back marks season again. and this time round. i really can't stand the nitty-gritty of mark discussion. i gotta say i too have been in some mark discussion
but seeing these various people. i'm sorry. just can help but demise them

I kind of understand now how other schools see us as nerdy neurotic people. cause i caught myself shamely telling them about how we scab marks and discuss about marks and etc.
for us its normal. but i'm beginning to see it from another side

lets call this person X
X is a good student. but sometimes can take it too far.
marks are their whole life, they enjoy talking about marks. they enjoy the satisfying feeling of being on top of everyone else. they get extremely upset when they don't do as well and have a cry
they go and annoy teachers about ambiguous questions every
there is nothing else going on in their life
they are HAWs too - that is. high achieving whingers

i kinda feel sorry for them. i dunno if its parents expectations, their natural instincts or what. you gotta realise marks are such a tiny part of life. ive changed my perspective so much lately
i mean its understandable to be upset, after you've tried so hard.
but they take it too far.

meh. as long as its not in front of me. its ok. cause i'll feel compelled to make bad remarks sadly.

on the other hand. i have finally had the time to start doing little things which study (or procastinating to study) held me back from. started drawing on of those pictures from my previous posts like promised earlier. here's just a working progress



also been exercising quite a bit lately and taking nice naps in the afternoon :)
really wish i had my Ps so i would be able to go out and do fun stuff over at people's place even on school nights

and that freedom of driving by yourself. and maybe perhaps turning on the radio and singing in your car xD without your parents looking at you weird. which.. hasn't happened to me before.

i'm gonna keep it to a short post for now. off to work on my working progress.
take care everyone
chill. its after exams . don't be sad about marks

A piece of my life

Woke up feeling great

It felt like summer time again. and to me things that remind me of summer time :
- hot weather
- getting out the singlets to wear again
- long sunny afternoons
- the song "call on me- eric prydz" which i just managed to get ahold of
- seeing people without blazers and junior girls with summertime dresses
- fun on the farm
- beach time followed by ice cream
- the old bamboo mat coming out to make it cooler when sleeping
- chillaxing at home watching channel ten summer shows or the cricket


i think mainly its cause i've been going through senior and junior old photos which reminded me of summer. but nonetheless it feels great. summer for me is my most favourite season.
and that summer feeling is the best feeling.

trying to currently get my speech and everything done. but i just feel too relaxed and have been going through valentines assembly vids and watching the jamaican 4x100 relay team own everything at beijing olympics on replay about 10 times


got the old colour pencil box out today which has been unused since the last visual rep. and hasn't been used to drawing for a long time.

i think i'll have a go at drawing sometime this week.
the big pencil box was generously gifted to me when i was about in year 6 or 7 by a generous work colleague of my mum. sadly i don't remember who he is. but i am very thankful towards him. as you can see, over the period of time some pencils have gone missing, probably picked up by my drawing teacher

had a little bit of a clean up in my room since during trials i've been very lazy and disorganised

half of my life has probably been spent in here. eventually when i move out it's gonna be a sad occasion. my dad can't bear the thought of moving out, cause he's just gotten so used to the location.
i have trouble of letting go of things. like year 8 assignments xD
so funny to look back on stuff like that. even primary school portfolios where you had to write recounts and stuff.


well really just planned on making it a short one. it's gonna take me forever to go over and relive all my posts in the future.

take care all. enjoy the rest of high school

The search for another side

Wow. just gotta say . even though this may make people feel uncomfortable and awkward about it. just wow. tonight made me think and feel about things so much more differently. got a couple of people to thank for caring and helping me. i hope they know who they are
It's really nice to get in touch with your spiritual side even though obviously some people out there suddenly get the idea of brainwashing and scams. which is kinda sad.

well today was quite a very eventful and exciting day :)
first of all woke up late but managed to do a little bit for the school at working bee. my moral sense called on me to help out the school, even we didnt end up doing much except for shoveling mulch.
been starting to feel really nostalgic and sentimental lately about school. actually been talking about old school times a lot lately to a few people. just the memories. where we can just look back and laugh at how stupid and naive or shallow we were.
the school has been good to me. and as gay as this sounds. it feels like a second home.
so how could i not go to our last working bee.
turn out from our grade wasn't that strong. other grades were quite reasonable. afterwards played a bit of footy and soccer on the oval with a couple of the guys

still remember the times when we had 1.6 and we'd run across the demountables and the old canteen. where the oval used to just be a patch of hard ground without grass. and juniors and seniors would play footy and soccer at the same time on the same area.

so anyways swami's mum gives us a lift afterwards and we go to swami's place for a bit of table tennis and chillaxing. played table tennis. sadly i did lose a set to swami 11-7
and also took some incriminating photos which i kinda wish i hadn't after they were posted up on facebook for people to see. didnt know that was gonna happen. funny how it's only funny when it's happening to other people

anyways after some nice hospitality,me and matt head off to epping station and get into the city for rice!




pass the E&Y building on our way to pepper lunch. go in and order some stuff and shortly afterwards the whole ruse group comes to eat and we took advantage of our numbers to get a free eel pepper rice after 10 purchases :P


was quite nice and headed off to sydney entertainment centre.

wow so many asian people and all together for one cause. it was a really nice feeling. and just the whole feeling of togetherness and spiritual feeling was just priceless. really glad i went. it was a first for me.
i highly recommend it even if you're not christian. i know you think it may be awkward but.
i remember my first time going to church. and feeling really nervous because i thought i'd be judged by my actions and everything. but it just turned into something i really looked forward to going to and the people there were just such good people.



as belle already mentioned. it was jampacked
and overall a very good fun night
dad came to pick me up and we headed off home. watched a bit of the notebook which i really like. very sweet romance movie. i don't get why they made the lady forget the husband again in the end though.

I missed you blogger <3

yes i quite missed blogging. and its finally good to be back again and typing :) although i have nothing much unique to say. trials are over though
so it feels bloody good to be free .
my dad was extra nice to me during these two weeks xD knowing i had trials. and has been driving me to school every day for trials.
on the way to school on wednesday, there's this yellow ute that's just in front of us the entire time. and i don't know if you can see it clearly, but the number plate just says 'marks'.

what are the chances of that happening? damn probability. you never know if you're right until you really check the answers. just in case you missed out some condition

today's physics was alright. stayed up till about 2 just reading the physics textbook. for a one-day prep. it was pretty alright. lucky they had stuff which i still remembered from before. don't really care about phys either. doesn't count for me. so i have this ceeebs(as the nsgs and baulkos would say) attitude. but luckily it turned out moderately ok

got out the door and just felt so good. so much stuff to do now. if i am allowed
asian parents don't get that the end of trials means time to go play for a coupla days. they still think. oh time to study for HSC now !

things i wanna do from now until when i start feeling guilty and start to study for HSC:
- watch nrl double header tomorrow :D
- lotsa exercise including basketball and perhaps tennis :P
- kayaking !
- do one of my things on my things to do before i die list
- eat lotsa healthy stuff and feel great

i only just realised this while eating. how stupid is a KFC dinner for 2?
they have 5 pieces of chicken , 2 regular chips, 2 coleslaw and 2 drinks
but 5 pieces of chicken?! cant KFC do maths or something
especially if its two guys eating. they'll all be finished with their second piece and going errrrrrrrr. and just staring at the last piece xD

any food tastes so nice after you've finished doing lotsa swimming. or kayaking probably.


to finish this off. some lame joke posted by my 'msn stalker' . more details on that later.
Anaesthetised says:
hey
what's red and looks like a bucket
A RED BUCKET
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
now what's blue and looks like a bucket
a red bucket in disguise
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

its not even lame funny. just a facepalm reaction joke
take care everyone. have some fun :) that rhymed.
