Okay,fasting month is over! (I know you're smiling,Zaki)
I didn't skip fasting for a single day (How about you?)
Maybe I can't enjoy Hari Raya that much.
Inter-house games on 2nd Oct,PW Written Report by 9 Oct and rugby training will resume as well.
Anyway, SELAMAT HARI RAYA and also HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY!
Maaf Zahir dan Batin.
Please forgive me for all my wrongdoings,for any harsh words,inappropriate behaviour etc...
Sorry to those whom I've hurt you before and I'll rectify my mistakes.
tsk..tsk...tsk...
OK let's start things fresh!

Today is a tiring day.
Morning: clean windows
Noon: went to the gym
Afternoon: had a soccer match
We won 6-1.Played at Ang Mo Kio.
Ate McDonald's for break fast.
My mum told me to paint my room.
I'm exhausted.

38th Zone Colours Award Ceremony...

Daddy
MummyParents
Wong Jieh taking award
Myself taking award
?
With parents and teachers

Wong Jieh,Abel and myself as well as the volleyball team received the Zone Colours awards.

The event was held at Hwa Chong Institution.

And Hwa Chong athletes dominated the awards.

My family arrived early.Took some pictures there.

When Abel,Wong and I sat in the auditorium,Abel suspected that his phone was lost.

I kept calling his number but there was no response.

As the event was about to start, Abel realised that his phone was below his seat.

The talks by the guests were okay.

The boring part was during the presentation of awards.

The teachers and students took photographs after the event.

I took 4 packets of food from the refreshment area and brought it home.

Plus 2 more packets which my parents took them earlier.

I'll continue to be at my best for the upcoming competition, and also in everything I do.

Hari Raya is coming!

At the moment I'm feeling boring at home.

Exams over and I deserve to have more rests.

Should I read JC2 stuffs at the moment?

I'll see.

PROMO FEVER

3 DAYS OF TOTAL COMMITMENT
Monday-Econs
Tuesday-MT & Chem
Wednesday- History and Math
That's it.
Enjoy Hari Raya after that.
I'm not nervous like I used to be.
I can only feel nervous if I have not practice enough.
I can only feel nervous if I fail most of the tests in Term 3.
Never say hungry,though I'm fasting.
Never say tired,though I'll have to write 4 essays in 3 hours.
Never feel panic,coz it's a repeated process of writing stuffs that I've wrote before.
I'm ready.
I'll see myself doing A Level next year.
Good luck to myself and fellow Pioneers.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT I'M NOT FIT

I went to Jurong Polyclinic this morning with Hassan to have medical checkup.

The checkup is needed in order to participate in OBS.

During consultation, the nurse said that I have SLOW HEARTBEAT!

I was stunned.

I told her that I'm engaged in rough sports and have been always fit for PE.

She said 'sometimes sports can can lower your heartbeat'.

I reported to the ECG lab to trace the intervals of my heartbeat.

Damn.My heartbeat is not only SLOW but IRREGULAR.

The heatbeat rate of a normal person is 60,but mine is 54.

Abnormal.

How shocking and ironic for me to experience this.

Being in top 20 for 5 cross-country runs and had achieved many medals in sports,

it was disheartening to hear it.

And I didn't realised the problem until today.

It's frightening to me, after reading about sportsmen and NSmen who collapsed just like that while exercising.

The clinic gave me a referral NUH on a direct access.

I don't know when I will be admitted.

The doctor will call me anytime within this month and I will have report to NUH immediately.

Hope that will take place after promos.

As for the OBS thing,I'll talk to the teacher.

Feeling down now but I just have to continue revising for promos.

I have incomplete task that I want to achieve in life.

SMILE OFTEN =)

Everything will heal one day

But before the heal,

there's always pain

Faith is the catalyst

Ivan,Hans and I were the only PJC students who attended Caring Teachers Award Ceremony,out of 30 who had signed up.
The speeches by the award winners were inspiring and I was impressed by a teacher who is visually handicapped who has been teaching for more than 30 years.
Congrats to Mr Michael Kwok for winning this award!

Went home straight away after that event.
I had nothing to do anyway.
Mock exams are coming and I'll have to treat them seriously,though not counted for CA.
A pass in Chemistry mock exam will boost my confidence.
I have yet to pass a single chem test so far.
Need to brush up on GP paper 2,especially rephrasing.There are plenty of exercises to do.

I DIDN'T KNOW A MEDICAL CHECKUP COSTS $45

After a exhausting day that includes Math,Chemistry and GP lectures, I went to a clinic at GP to get a medical checkup which is required for me to attend OBS. I told the cashier that I need checkup and pass her my Medical Benefit card.

Cashier: sorry, you can't use this card for OBS medical checkup. (-_-)
Me: okay then.How much does the checkup cost?
Cashier: Hold on,I ask the doctor.Please have a seat.

Cashier: It costs around $30.
(I had $28 in my wallet)
Me: Oh I see.Hmm...okay I go home first to take more $.I'll be back later.
Cashier: Would you like me to keep your form here at the moment?
Me:okay

At home, when I was about to go back to the clinic,my mum called.
Mama: Bob,how come the checkup is so expensive? D=
Me: It's around $30.
Mama: Your head!The doctor said $45!Don't go to that clinic;go to polyclinic is cheaper.
Me: Hah?

Forget it,I'll go to polyclinic another day. I continued with my revision.
Half an hour later, I realised that I had left the OBS form at the clinic.
I'm tired of walking.Fasting somemore.When I take back my form, the staffs there appeared to have glum faces.Did my mum scold them? She is daring to do so.

Tonight,my neighbourhood is filled with noise from 2 communities. There's a street opera as well as terawih prayers within close proximity.

MERDEKA!

Happy Independence Day for my relatives in Malaysia - Sheikh Arziman, Sheikh Arhaiziq,Sheikh ....etc
Hope you all will have stable govt, low inflation rate and low fuel price.
Ramadhan is here once again (don't be frustrated,Zaki!) and it's time to refresh the heart and soul.
I had never failed not to fast during the previous two Ramadhans.Keep it up!
Some people will lose weight but that might only last till Hari Raya.
Anyway,to all Muslims, Selamat Menjalani Ibadah Puasa!
=P

Whoa...long time never update.
Everyday is the same old thing -school and mugging.
20 days to promos

Anyway, my younger sister probably joked with her teacher.
Look the questions and answers below:

Haiisshh....

Teachers' Day celebration tomorrow! I'm not sure whether to go back to Westwood or not.
Hope the one at PJC will end early.

Got back 3 of my mid-year papers today.

I already knew how I had performed after each paper during the examination week.

Nothing surprising.

General Paper: 27/50

Chemistry: 14.5 / 70

Math: 15 / 35

I won't give up on math for sure. The revision practices I did were manageable but things went blackout on examination day.Need 1 more mark to get E.

Slightly happy with GP but I'll need to read more as the marker gave a comment 'essay lacks evidence'.

For Chemistry,no doubt that I'd fail. My class is the worst class in Chemistry with only one person who just passed. No more excuses. If there are people who can get A, why not me? I'm gonna figure this out!

I can't wait to get back History and Economics, the subjects I'm confident with.

My A Level Mother Tongue oral will be held tomorrow!

I'm the second person behind Syafiq. Luckily it is not held today as I am emo and have no mood to talk.

I need to practise pronouncing 'R' properly.

Hope nothing will bring me down tomorrow.

If there is, please let it happen after the oral exam.

Some of the ruggers went to Sentosa today.

Took the monorail from Vivocity.

The touch rugby girls had a competition there.

We played beach rugby, water rugby and poker cards.

Don's tooth was half-broken when we were playing water rugby!

He was calmed.If I were him, I'd cry and want to go dental clinic immediately.

We had fun throwing sand at one another, wrestled one another in the water and gossiping about the "people around us who attracted our attention".

It was drizzling in the late afternoon but we were about to go back anyway.

An unknown girl asked me whether she could borrow a rugby ball. I said can and smiled.

As always, the ruggers told me to sound her and speculation arose.

We got free food from the organisers of the competition due to surplus stock.

Took the bus back to Harbourfront bus interchange.

We saw the group of girls who borrowed our rugby ball.

Hazel sabotaged me when he told the girl that " my captain, the weird-looking Malay guy,would like to have your phone number".

Haishh... -_-

Unfortunately,he talked to the girl's friend.Haha.

Shazwan, Haikal,Kumarran,Wee Cheng,Khalis,Alex and I went to Vivo.

Kumarran treated us doughnuts.

Tired of standing in the MRT.

Same goes in the bus.

I realised that I could have conducted my PW survey to my friends today but I didn't print them.

Great.Wasted.

Deadlines for this,Deadlines for that

One thing in my mind now is Project Work.

Seriously my group have not been efficient.

We had not done data gathering processes such as interviews and surveys.

We only talked and planned but no action taken.

Our GPP has been approved by Mdm Shafa and she said that it is one of the best.

Today, we came up with new survey questions and I had given Febrianto the interview questions about Peranakan culture.

He is a Peranakan anyway.We also asked one of the male Peranakan teachers to have an interview next Wednesday.

I don't mind having stress to keep me active but this is too excessive.

Took a break at concourse with Maverick and Jolene before the Australian Math Competition training started.

We had a math test consisting of 30 questions to be done in 75 minutes.

I closed one eye when doing the first few questions but had to open both eyes wide as I did more questions.

The last five questions were damn __________!

There will be another math training tomorrow morning.

And Chelsea, I can't wait to see your 5-star action!

VIVA ESPANA

EURO fever is over and life is back to the usual boring way.

Oh...Deco has joined Chelsea!Hope that Ronaldo would join Real Madrid.

I will only have to go to school on Thursday and Friday for PW workshop and Australian Math Competition training.

Ber Han sms-ed me yesterday and said that he is planning a Sentosa trip for the ruggers this Saturday.

The touch rugby girls will have a competition there as well. (surely the ruggers would be willing to go)

I went to the gym yesterday evening. I did not run long distances for almost a month now.

As for today, I've got nothing to do that I searched the piano tabs of some songs and tried to play them on my keyboard.

I managed to play Kelsey by Metro Station and What I've Done by Linkin Park.

It was quite simple because I did not play the chords.

No school for the next 3 days for me.

I'm trying relax my mind after one week of hell examination.

Yesterday, I had a dental check-up at NUH.

Played soccer with phattzion and at night, 'lepak' with them at Pioneer Mall with our laptops.

This morning,my mum,brother and I went to our grandparents' house.

My grandparents bought a new LCD TV bigger than the one in my house.

At 3pm, I went to Joey's house. Syahiran and Hanis were there too.

Then, we smuggled into Floravale. Joey and I swam in the pool while Hanis and Syahiran met Khairul.

We ate KFC after that.Saw Azhar.

I went back to my gandparents' house again.

They gave their old TV to my sister.

EURO FINAL in a few hours time!
Both Germany and Spain are my favourites.
I'll watch it!

Another accident near my house...

I was about to have dinner with my sister at home when heard a long and loud screech and honk.

I rushed out with my handphone to the scene which is located beside the bus stop near my home.

A huge crowd gathered there.

I saw scattered headlights of the lorry and a man lying flat on the road 5 metres ahead of the lorry.

His slippers were far away from him.

Thank God that he could breathe a bit.

Hope that he will recover.

The previous accident on the same road ended in fatality.

I'll give the 4-digit numbers of the license plate to my dad for 4D.

Stupid ambulance! One lane of the road is being blocked and yet the driver stops this ambulance on the other lane.

God bless you,victim.

Anyway, I had a haircut today after doing revision at CC.

Fever is gone but headache is still there.

Oh no...I'M SICK AGAIN!!!
Having fever.
Body temperature 37.7 degree C.
Headache as well.
What a critical time to fall sick!
Mid-year exams in 3 days time!
Damn it.

Sigh....just completed Chemistry online assignment.

The notes at the side of my laptop were not useful as the time limit was 25 minutes and there were 15 MCQs.

Fortunately the assignment is graded based on participation and not achievement.

Still lacking confidence for mid-year.

Sometimes, I have the content within my fingertips but have poor time-management.

Clement and I slept at Fariss' house last night. Planed to watch Euro but the three of us slept deadly. Imagine what my holidays would be like if the mid-year exam is scheduled before June.

And Ballack, your freekick is much more awesome than Ronaldo!

1 more week...

If I were to have exam now, I'd surely fail.

What I did so far were merely reading, highlighting and grasping the content.

Not enough.

I need prctices.

The ten-year-series books are still clean as if I had just brought it.

Euro 2008 is inelastic!

I watch at least a game per day.

I didn't have much time to enjoy during the holidays so far.

I only remembered that I went to the Esplanade, Singapore Flyer and town this month.

And those trips were boring.

My mum came back from KL on Thursday and was fortunate to avoid the protest in KL.

I'm still considering whether to go into political science or not.

Take risks!

Going jamming tomorrow.

Visit to the Peranakan Museum...

We wanted to know more about the Peranakan Culture as my group is doing on that topic for Project Work. Only Gabriel,Yuan Sheng and myself visited the museum. Both the girls in our group couldn't go. One had canoeing competition and the other one is in India. We jote notes on our notebooks, took pictures of the artifacts and watched videos there.The place is not bad! We spent more than 2 hours at the museum. Gabriel and I hang out at Peninsula Plaza and ate there as well. Dozed off in the MRT back home. The lightbulb in my bedroom needs to be changed! I'm living in darkness now...

Leadership Training Camp@ Labrador,

2nd June to 4th June

I'm lazy to talk about every single thing we did.

There were fun times and boring times but what most important is what we have learnt from this camp and how to apply them not only in CCA,but also in our daily life.

Monday:
Talks about leadership. Body ache after sitting on the floor for so long.
Mr Kwok sent Wong Jieh and I to CCAB for combined school match.
Each group did survival test which required practical decision-making.
Fire drill at midnight.

Tuesday:
Morning stretching
Preparation for high elements -planning,belaying etc.
High elements from 2-6pm.
Unfortunately,our plan went haywired.
Disappointing afternoon.
Went to hawker centre for dinner with group.
Our group facilitator,Rebecca, treated us drinks and chicken wings =)
Did reflection at night.

Wednesday:
Fire drills at 4am!!! The boys couldn't hear the siren.11 minutes for the first one.
10 km trek to Mount Faber and back to school.

The different CCAs came out with aims,action plan and challenges.Shared them with other CCAs.
Camp ended at noon.
Took taxi home with Hassan,Jia Hua and Rachel.
Taxi fare: $28
Went for rugby training after that."Never Say Die!" ( though I was really exhausted )

We look like construction workers
Reflections...

Group Dinner.Thanks for the treat,Rebecca=D
Here we are at Mount Faber.The dawning of a brand new day...

As for today, I had Econs lecture in the morning.

Supposed to have combined school match at CCAB but I couldn't make it.

It was cancelled anyway due to field closure.

Started revision (oh finally!) but slept on the desk.

Need to settle Project Work!!!
