trip

First day of sch for me today and i am not really used to it cause i get very tired easily in class and my class morale like very low maybe the lessons last week isnt tat fun, haha.. First period is maths and oh dear.... I dunno wat formula is it, is super long and huge. Think i am going to have a hard time passing it this sem.

Just went to suntec with jon to check out his hp battery price and it cost $38. I really think jon should change to a new NOKIA battery cause he is using some other brand battery for his current nokia phone which is quite dangerous cause u never know what will happen to the phone and worst thing is it might explode. I saw news in other country that hp do explode and since is constanly in our pocket it will become very hot and u never know wat reaction will there be.

Anway i bought a new deathnote poster in suntec costing $10 only.

My sis got this figure for my birthday...

And lastly for today entry i got this aircraft model when i came back from thailand for 21 bucks and i like it alot. In future anyone taking plane pls help me buy their plane model too.

thai

Just came back from thailand and decide to blog abit before i sleep.

Left my house in the morning on 15 oct to flag cab and i so heng got a mercs cab.

I was very surprise to see a tv beside the meter cause i have never seen 1. But i find it kind of dangerous cause the driver might be distracted by the tv leading to an accident. So i met up with another friend then went to the budget airport.

Our teacher treat us breakfast in the airport and we were told to take whatever we want...
Took tiger airways and the whole journey from singapore to bangkok is around 2 hours. View from the window seat.

Then we proceed to the hostel that we will be staying for the next 5 days. I was expecting non air-con room and dirty toilet but i knew i was wrong when i enter the hostel lobby.


I thought i enter a hotel when i saw the reception.

Team singapore preparing to check in....

This signboard is just at the entrance of the hostel.

Our bedroom.

Toilet.

On the first night the korea team offer to play friendly game with the thailand team and in the end thailand lost all as expected.

The lady in the picture is the team leader for korea, not the player. She is professional 2 or 3 dan and she is the first female pro in korea if i am not wrong. She played against 2 other dan player and won both games. She is also a english lit teacher.

The person in blue is singapore team leader, pro 6 dan. And his opponet are both from korea amateur 6dan and in the end the female lose while the other won. This shows tat korea amateur player are really very strong.

The guy in green is the china pro coach employed by thailand and is playing against 3 singapore players. And he won all 3 in the end.

The next day we went to visit the king's palace and some ruin city and honestly is not fun at all cause is so damm hot and theplace is kind of boring... On the way i then realise that some part of thailand is experiencing flooding and is the first time i see floods.


Introducing our tour guide!!!!!!

I hate it when she stops and starts to explain stuff cause out of 10 sentence u can only understand 1 sentence. Her english is no difference from thai language. The worst part is when she starts making eye contact with you.... Normally when a tour guide introduce some stuff she will try to make eye contact with everyone but this guide is totally different. When she start explaining she will tend to focus on 1 person only and ignore the rest and is like so strange and that person can never escape her clutch till she done her talking. So everytime when she start explaining u can see team singapore all hiding at the back of the tour, haha...

The competition area...

This often happen when 2 strong opponent finish playing.....

On the second last night they host a teaching game and represtatives from other countries play teaching game with the local people...

Kang lao shi playing with 6 3dan at one time with handicapp and in the end 1 won.

Guy in white is from korea and black from japan.

Guy in white is from japan. All the players from local and other countries are from university. Speaking of japan they are kind of unlucky in thailand cause on the last day 2 players were amitted into hospital for food poisoning. And i was so shock when my teacher told me that one of the player representing japan last year met with the same problem too and his condition became worst on the plane back to japan and was admitted to hospital immediately after they land japan and that person died few days later. I was really shocked when i heard this n i keep thinking about it. The closing ceremony stage was quite grand... Weiqi is getting so popular and strong in thailand because of the strong support of 7-eleven. This whole event is sponsor by them and it must have cost a bomb.You must be wondering wat is this pic about... Because our closing ceremony was in an open space we were so lucky that there was a sudden downpour and we all have to move everything indoor.

This is the place where we can use internet for free 24 hours.

Last of all i really wan to thank my teacher lina, kang lao shi and all my friends who were with me in thailand cause they gave me a surprise birthday celebration.

We were playing cards in a room and suddenly some of my friends say that there is a meeting in my room so we all went there and kang lao shi suddenly bring out a cake and i was so surprise. We celebrated in the hostel looby and 7-eleven boss join in the celebration too. She also gave me a present.

Of course i really have to say thanks to my poly friends for celebrating early for my birthday. THX ALOT GUYS!!! i really appreciate it.

vivo

Today is my mum offday so my sis n i accompany my mum to shop in the new shopping mall, VIVO CITY. I din know about this place till my mum told me yesterday... btw is beside habourfront shopping mall.

That place is not big, is HUGE!! I thought the new marina square shopping mall was big enough but i knew was wrong when i start walking in vivo city. Sad to say not all the shop are open yet cause the official opening date is on 1 nov if i am not wrong. But even if all the shops are open i dun really like that place cause is like all the shops are for 'high class' ppl. Not sure if the shops are told to do so but the shops design are quite different from other outlet for example giodano... The outlet design is totally different from other outlet...

The top level is actually an open space with fountain and the view there is good... can see sentosa, cable cars, the open sea and so on...

What is true friendship? Different people have different concept on this point.

Some people thinks that if the other party share the same interest with him, he is a true friend.
Some thinks that if the other party agrees on whatever he says and wat he do, he is a true friend.
Some thinks that when he face a problem and the other party agrees to listen, he is a true friend.
And bla bla bla, many other more reasons which is impossible for me to listen them out.

For me true freinds are friends who are willing to help you when you are in any trouble and not expecting any return from you.

As i grow older and older every second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year i get to see all kinds of people. Some are really true friends but sad to say some others regard us as friend because there is 'value' in us.

For example
...if your science is top in class u will suddenly find people who dont bother greeting you come talk nicely to you in science class.
...When you have a better looking friend they will come to you and have nice chat but eventually their goals is to know more about your other good looking friend.
...when u have discount on some branded stuff they will flock to you like some hungry crocs and after everything they will only ask u for more discount stuff.

Haha i make it sound so bad but seriously there are people out there who are like that. I was so bored on the trip to vivo city so somehow i thought of all these stuff.

ok, going back to youtube to watch deathnote anime.....

thai

7 more days to thailand!!!!!! Heard that haze is bad there too.

Today's weather looks good, no more haze... but my crazy sis say no good cause cant wear mask anymore. i was like err....... some screw not tighten upstairs in her... dunno y she likes to wear mask so much maybe she thinks is very cool... reminds me of the show hostel.

Today schedule is the same as every sunday, wake up at 12pm, go bugis for the 2pm class and left at 3pm, go to the same shop to have my favourite wanton noodles then take bus 61 home which takes around an hour trip.

Sat schedule is almost the same... wake up at 12pm then go bugis for the 2pm class, leave at 3 to have lunch at the wanton noodle shop and go back to the club for 5pm lesson then leave at 6pm to jurong green cc to play there.

Weekend is just so robotic for me. Is fixed!!! no change, haha. think the wanton noodles boss know me le. But is still better than staying at home cause i know i will be clued to the tv the whole day to rot.

spreeaway.blogspot.com is one of my best sec frend's online shop so gals if u r interested to shop online be sure to visit this webby. If u r interested in any item do tell me.


~~~Hazy hazy haze~~~

Today is the last round of polite game and as expected we won np by 4-1. once again nyp got champion and every player got a medal each.So after the whole thing we went PS and have dinner in thai express.... Sch treat!!!! muhahhaha... the food there is really nice and is not very ex too.

Is not good to think of some excuse and not face reality. face it to solve your problems once and for all.

Today is day 2 of polite game in sp and we win just by eating our dinner cause our opponent rp din not come. well, they intend to give up the entire game. Actually nyp already got champion even though there is still a game tml against np cause we won our biggest opponent on the first day and tat is sp...my lava lamp...

I saw this posters on lina's office saying "Goals without time limit are just wish". I was sort of stunned cause is very true and is refering to me too.

sian

Today is polite game competition and is held in sp. We met our strongest opponent sp on the first day and i was kind of worry. Each sch send 5 players to play against each other and in the end we won by 3 aganst 2.

When i saw my opponent half of my morale was gone cause the arrangement of the seat wasnt according to my plan and it means bad stuff. In the end i lost.

I dun feel sad that i lost, only felt very disappointed of myself. Because i din try my best in the game and i keep thinking that the rest of my team members will win. I know is very selfish of me to rely so much on my team mates and not putting in my best effort in the game.

Another reason is tat before the start of the game i told myself i will lose cause i lost to my opponent in a recent com.

how can a person win when he tells himself he will lose even before the game starts?

I need serious reflection.
