top 3 moments of glory
1) gettin into 2nd round of campus superstar
2) gettin best speaker for interhouse debates twice
3) asked to perform for interhouse cny next year! (probably due to my runners-up position in the chinese karaoke competition)

top 3 most irritating songs
1) Dragostea din tei by Ozone & Bu pa bu pa by jocie guo (especially when i'm bowling)
2) Everything 50 Cent raps(cause of noise pollution)
3) Eminem's songs. (enough of tragic family background and yr failed relationships and yr abusive dad)

2) RGSS Guitar Ensemble (entertaining)
3) RJC Chorale Concert (Choirs simply rock)

top 3 movies

can anyone help me think of more 'top 3s'?

4/5.
i like the white witch. but i didn't like the way she died. did u see how aslan like gazed into her eyes b4 killin her. hilarious. i really liked lucy. so darn funny. u can't expect anything very surprising as its a children's tale. so well. i personally liked it.

3.5/5 stars
well, enjoyed the show thoroughly. really liked the special effects of all the species (t-rex,gorillas,gigantic slugs and centipedes and worms and humongous flies). thought it could have been shorter though, it took 1 hour 10 minutes b4 i could get to see kingkong beating his chest.

small innocent big-eyed girls. half-demon-half-human heroes who save the day. father who entrusts his whole life on his sons. omg. how exciting can anime be. kelly and zerome were at my house. played gta. played cluedo (really fun, esp when how the both of them got to predict the murderers in less than 5 turns. just cool.) and went jacks place for lunch (only paid $22 for the 3 of us!!).
went to kelly's house coz ashy wanted to watch anime. =.= but good also, i was gettin bored at home. wanted to breathe fresh air outside. so went there and played risk and watched inuyasha... almost died of boredom watching that cartoon haha. the taxi ride home with ashy was weird, with the taxi driver not even knowing where dover mrt was. how interesting. and she keeps asking me questions related to the smses she found in my hp. how i wished i had the heart to delete those msgs. but i just like to keep memories.

ooh. photo hunt's just the best game on earth. not because i like the photos. but because its so cool to partner 2 ppl and get a high score!!! (we were ranked 8th with a score of 311000 ok.)
went out with hui2, yanhan, peiyi, charlene and miss judy lee and mrs tan (who's pregnant) for lunch at imm. well....chatted pretty long whilst eating my 'kid-portioned' spaghetti (apparently we ordered kids meal coz we wanted to save money. but in the end mrs tan paid for everything XD) ahh. after that ate dessert at kopitiam and then went separate ways. it was just a nice feeling to meet the pri sch peeps again. how everyone changed and how yet all of us are still gettin along. ahh =)
after that yanhan left us for her SLC and e rest of us went for bowling! well...one of my worst showings EVER. 105,103, and a pathetic score way below 100. don't wish to mention boo.
ahh. what a great day. i love photo hunt.

i feel smoked.

I AM IN BATCH ONE. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.

so that means i'm leaving on the 3rd jan-8th jan.

wow. photoshoot and filming for the obs video preview is kinda interesting. winston and i went everywhere trying to film sec 2s, but all of them are so freaking shy. dunno shy for what. after all, i think its quite an honor to be featured on the first day of school! WAHAHAHAH.

when i asked what will they expect of obs, about 10 of them said 'fun'. u'll get to see that on the first day of school LOL. i feel like a star!!!!

I AM IN BATCH ONE YES.
hoho. heehee. hoho. heehee.

WOO! Danni Boatwright trashes Stephanie LaGrossa in the concluding episode of Survivor: Guatemala with the jury giving danni the million dollars with a 6-1 vote. (2nd time it has happened since the twila vs chris incident). really think she deserved it, for she was the odd one out amongst the final four, with totally different tribe background. CONGRATS!
In order of elimination: Jim, Morgan, Brianna, Brooke, Blake, Margaret, Bryan, Amy, Brandon, Bobby Jon, Jamie, Gary, Judd, Cindy, Lydia, Rafe, Stephanie.

Woo! and there. the linz win the million-dollar prize in the special 7th instalment family edition of the amazing race, edging out the bransen family with a nailbiting footrace. well they pretty much deserved it, with their brains and brawns. but quite a predictable ending after all, would've loved to see the reaction of viewers if only the weavers had won. but well, sometimes the world is fair too! order of elimination: black, rogers, aiello, schroeder, gaghan, paolo, godlewski. 3rd: weavers 2nd: bransens winners: linz

well, after the finales of these two shows, i hardly can find any reality shows to die for, besides project runway and the upcoming ANTM cycle 5. star idol, with its horrendously tragic results, and superhost, with its weird format of elimination, are definitely not alternative replacements for the two fabulous shows that just ended.

maybe the next show to catch is: battle of the network reality stars.

group of us standing outside wildwildwet right after our dinner on the 2nd day.
from L to R: jon, zerome, me!!!, kelly sweeping his hair up, junming, stuart, daniel (background), marvin, sikai
zhijie!! he looks better in person. he looks like a living mummy here.
sikai
a queer binglong
stuart (with a sheepishly looking daniel smiling gleefully)
yuzhou
erm. yanliang.
khai cheong
zerome

maybe i should talk about the chalet.

group of us went to the arcade first. a really pathetic group of us. only around 7 ppl. i found my hidden talent in the bashing game, the one whereby u keep pressing 3 buttons nonstop and u have several stages to clear. i own at that man. and i realized i have to do manual in daytona in order to get in top 5 out of 6 machines LOL.
headed to the mother big chalet rooms that couldn't have possibly fit 20 ppl in. jumped around and played cards (hearts, bridge, daidi, poker) till dinnertime. lemme list out to you the top 5 card memorabilia of the year.

1. we were playing bridge. trump suit: diamonds. 3 of us put clubs. pinhong being the last, had no clubs and decided to trump them with an ace of diamonds.
2. hearts: i had Ace, queen, jack, 10 and 9 of hearts. when we played hearts, marvin put a king of hearts, only to realize that i put an ace and shot the moon.
3. in the first hearts game, marvin started a set with king of spades. and didn't shoot the moon.
4. sikai being a newbie in hearts, decided the start a set by putting queen of spades. the result is tragically the same as card trick no.3.
5. i turned from asshole to king in asshole daidi, with a '4,4,4,4,9,5,5,5,5,10'. brilliant.

dennis au came to visit us do the bbq. mr au paid $50 for the food. YAY! bbqed marshmellows majority of the time. and then, this group of ppl living beside us ordered caterers and couldn't finish our food. they offered to bbq our food and we offered to eat the leftovers of the catered food. fair trade.

decided to go to the basketball court, where yl and kelly went to show off. =.= rest of us decided to go to a small games machine area where i practised para para. and i cleared 2 stages miraculously. too bad, then an old man in charge of closing the games room told us to stop playing when we still had 1 stage left. money grubber..

went back and continued playing cards, for we couldn't freaking use the xbox console, thanks to a very interesting rule set by x-square near out chalet, stating that:only those above 16 years old or with an Identifcation card are allowed to rent the games. thinking we could borrow with like 10 ppl backing us, we decided to ask them if we could borrow with our ezlink cards. and that woman at the counter coldly told us 'NO IC NO GAMES'. what great service can i call that.

we really didn't quite sleep for the whole night, so some of them koped zerome's psp to play gta and some were watching some pathetic channel 8 show. didn't know watching midnight programmes were so intolerable. then we played monopoly and i WON. marvin decided to give me the lightblue region while he took the dark green region, only to realize that he didn't have enough money to build houses when i was building hotels. then we tried to sleep, but to no avail, for i was on the same bed as yanliang and ahho and yuzhou. how irresistable could i get. well i shall leave the details aside =P

next day we 'woke up' and headed to breakfast @ macs. saw the group of RI basketballers there (also my future classmates o.O) and then went for bowling where i got thoroughly owned due to my lack of sleep perhaps. my ball was curving tremendously to the right and only managed to edge out a 103 on 2 occasions? and even a 93 on my last game. looking at daniel scoring 123 twice and pinhong even getting 150+ made me pretty upset. looks like i gotta buck up.

then some of them decided to go to escape to go kart, but only 3 ppl went i think. ahho, binglong, yanliang. yawns. i was thinking of survivor all the time. i tot it was 1pm!!! so i chiong and bought burger king and when i on the tv, they were showing me GOLF. called wenjian and realized that it was 4pm. =.= then played cards until 4+, when mrs chan called me like a few times, apparently due to our lack of sense of direction, leading her to all sorts of places LOL. then we decided to wait at the main entrance for her. the weird thing was, we spotted her entering the main area at the chalet, when we didn't even see her enter the carpark. how queer.

then i realized she permed her hair! and she brought her little miss elise. so cute. big brown eyes. BEHIND THESE HAZEL EYES. then brought her into our 'dormitory', then started talking. i chiong back to my room and saw tribal council, where cindy got eliminated and steph got immunity. BOO. lydia is really damn tyco. then after that, she asked me to sing a song for elise. =.= even she knows that i joined campus superstar. like omg. how many ppl in the world knows about that? then she played with her baby the 'now u see me now u dun' game with a handkerchief hovering over the baby's face every few seconds. LOL.

after she left, we were playing kelvin's xbox game coz he went home and took it. sth called what grab by the ghoulies. then i owned lah i completed like 15+ missions. damn funny all the monsters start appearing then you are this small boy whacking them with chairs and cakes. nothing much for the day, except for the bedtime part again.

woke up after 5 hours of sleep and played daidi until checkout time. the day was a brisk one then just threw basketballs into the nets in the arcade game and went home. a satisfying trip.

how cool is this. i played asshole daidi in chalet and actually got this for an asshole. obviously i was king the next game.

rules of the game: post 5 weird facts about yourself. is this fun or what. here goes:

1) i don't waste food. i eat my fingernails.

2) i am lighter than vanessa.

3) i didn't sleep with zhijie during the chalet. i slept on him.

4) the cost value of my wallet today was below $50 for the first time in a year.

5) i deleted part of the instructions of this game.
