high-rised living

looking at the rate of how singapore's development is going,we are gonna get into some serious high-rised living soon.very very much like japan.though i haven't been to the land of the rising sun.
now,you get buildings which are higher than they are wide,so you actually have a false impression that you're in a really big complex.

i had the opportunity of going to such places today.first being the new mall down at clementi central,which until now,i have visited twice and i have no idea of its name.
had lunch at ramen ten with the class,apparently with a few missing people.
the food was okay la.but i like the ambience,its been such a long time since the whole class managed to sit together,well not exactly together la.and its really nice to talk to people who you seem to have neglected due to your commitments during normal school days.

and example no. two.regency suites at tiong.i manage to get into the condo via a friend and use their facilities.song boh,sia la.steam bath was damn good.i swear.
and i came out really relaxed.and i never felt this good before.
and guess what,the facilities were located on the fifth floor.not the first.and the gym was super small,almost the size of a living room.but the weights were damn cool(adjustable).

and i'm damn beat now.gonna shut down soon.i guess my body needs rest too:)

this is your show

tired day.
started off with rowing in the morning and then tried to study in the library when i got back to school.but i felt asleep awhile after,after seeing all the sums and numbers.
had gym session in the evening and it was a killer.guess this is the result of not going to the gym for almost one months.pullups also chui already.
and the briefing done by the captain was also a stressor.only manage to made me more kan chiong.about the upcoming events.

and after thursday is gonna be hellish week.not to say the 4 day camp which i'm gonna attend which will hamper my training plans.
i guess i won't be going for c-1 races for mr500.lets just say,let my time trials do the talking.

i wanna hang out..soon but its always a one side free,one side not free thing.and with all my trainings jammed packed like that.and with only wednesday nights,monday nights and the whole of friday free,i guess i will be wasting alot of my time on my own again.

出炉了

C-1 500m.
talk about having just one week to train.and competing beside all the little boys from SJI or what nots.
stress building up again.

Grey's Anatomy


Next up,Anatomy and physiology.
really burned out and dont feel like studying it.
and.its so borrrriiinngggg.i think people who like it tends to laugh at their own jokes.;)

somehow it really feels like shit during exams period,but i think i will feel down and lost when exams end.like a long winding road and you have lots of time to spare and you havent made up your mind on how to spend it.
i think i shall draw out a holiday plan,a to-do lists.
like what movies i'm gonna watch,what buffet i'm gonna eat next,where i'm going to go this holidays.morning exercise all those things.

Like a Worm

went for morning row today.despite only having like tentatively 2 hours of sleep the night before.was thinking of alot of nonsense stuffs,like ideas for a new tank,and oh,soooo exciting tmr,first water training in so many weeks.
and the results,like shit.stroking disappeared.morale fell,and best of all,the water was wavy.
and literally,like a worm!

and best thing of all when i got home,i was surprised to see my lil shrimp,which i released into the tank yesterday night,still surviving.and it was adhered to one of the tank's walls,don't know why.so,i picked at it and it went back into the water.
thats when i decided to relieve myself at the toilet.
when i came back.i saw the goby chasing away the wrasse.which was pretty weird cause he didnt do that usually.and when i saw the wrasse's lips,bloody hell,it was a piece of the shrimp.and my other wrasse was always picking at another body part.
so,the fish literally wacked the hell out of the shrimp,and i thought they were invertebrates safe.
go fuck off and die.
morale of the story,never get wrasses for inverts aquarium.period!

Marmite!



was on the net past few days,well and you could say instead of researching on my coursework,i was researching on people's reactions towards this product.
finally,one paper down.i really studied pretty diligently for this paper.and i think i would be quite upset if i dont manage to score well.at least a C,not very demanding i must say.

oh,and i saw the celebrity chef sam leong while i was waiting for my bus at commonwealth station.i saw him from afar,and thought that he looks familiar.when he walked closer,he was looking at some stuffs at the mamak shop and i confirmed that its him.
he dressed quite normally,like many other passerbys on the road,no attitude dressing.just a plain white shirt.
i wonder why wasnt he in a car driving around and instead he was waiting for a bus.


and i opened my jar of marmite today.mixed it with hard-boiled eggs.wah.the taste and aroma is seriosuly unique!
i don't hate it.and i don't particularly like it also.fine with me.

know your temperment

did a quiz few years back.
i got this
You Have a Melancholic Temperament

IPB Image

Introspective and reflective, you think about everything and anything.
You are a soft-hearted daydreamer. You long for your ideal life.
You love silence and solitude. Everyday life is usually too chaotic for you.

Given enough time alone, it's easy for you to find inner peace.
You tend to be spiritual, having found your own meaning of life.
Wise and patient, you can help people through difficult times.

At your worst, you brood and sulk. Your negative thoughts can trap you.
You are reserved and withdrawn. This makes it hard to connect to others.
You tend to over think small things, making decisions difficult.


Today,i did it again.
and i got this.
You Have a Phlegmatic Temperament
Mild mannered and laid back, you take life at a slow pace.
You are very consistent - both in emotions and actions.
You tend to absorb set backs easily. You are cool and collected.

It is difficult to offend you. You can remain composed and unemotional.
You are a great friend and lover. You don't demand much of others.
While you are quiet, you have a subtle wit that your friends know well.

At your worst, you are lazy and unwilling to work at anything.
You often get stuck in a rut, without aspirations or dreams.
You can get too dependent on others, setting yourself up for abandonment.


so which one do you think is more true?

Reluktancy

Coach:eh,nigel!c-boats do 10k.
jiahong:uh.okayy..

called me nigel again.i guess people wearing spectacles do resemble one another.
did a 8km,last 2km was left for the wind;)head started to spin on the 6thkm,old problem.headache.the wind was rather strong at the usual places.tried different styles of entering my paddle,but the sound still came out.
Apparently,ann chun sprained his back,i told him he exerted too much brute force already..
and the most embarrasing thing happened to me while going up 1km,i saw some guy,on a light blue C-1.guessed that he was probably a cjcian,and when i went closer."Oh,phelan".mann...this guy's stroke is better than the rest,and he was able to sprint.but his posture doesnt look right.so i saw him starting to sprint off.and i attempted."plonk"capsized..
and mind you,my head was already spinning by that time,and i was on my 7thkm.
luckily,mervin and willy were coming up to 1km.




oh,and i was studying on the topic of heat when i saw thie thing called basal metabolic rate(BMR),decided to google it and check out mine.
height:1.68m
weight:53kg.
You have a BMR of 1509.7.

and on the topic of body fats and botak jones.
weight:53kg
waist:70cm
You have a Body Fat Percentage of 10.48%.

海角七号


past few days have been spent,struggling to study for consecutive tests.and finally got a minor break yesterday.have to get the engines cracking again tonight for the upcoming monday's anatomy and physics test.

oh,penny mentioned about this movie to me quite some time ago,and i saw the OST at HMV yesterday,so i finally managed to set my sights and time down to watch it.Its very nice,heart-warming and very much gives the same feeling like how love,actually would make a person feel.
fan yi chen was the typical cool guy and a lonely girl who's abroad working falls for him,at the same time with a love story spanning over few decades unfolding.
well,gonna watch it again when i have time.

i'm gonna die

dead for excel.retest.
non of those excel terms seem to get into my head.
and exams are a good 2 weeks away.and my head's still spinning.....damn it....
maybe i need an incision through the prefrontal cortex,a cut in the pineal gland to reduce the amount of melatonin produced.and to stimulate the pituitary gland so that i can sweat more.and also,my hypothalamus should be soaked in concentrated HCL so that all the axons and nerve impulses are killed.and that the myelin sheath can be burnt off.

wahlao....

somehow,i feel that msn restricts my chain of thoughts and its a thief which steals my blog posts.what could have been in here was msned to my friend.
