I've had a long long dae... Went to school at 8am for Sports and wellness... As you all know, I'm taking badminton as my so called "chosen subject." Yep. Training was tough. The teacher is those military-type de. But tts great lar, I havent gotten such "treatment" for very long ba. Play untill siao... My badminton racket's strings ( is tt wad u call em? ) snapped... Okay not all. A few of em snapped. Probably cos i hit too hard ba.The teacher sae i hit as if i wanna kill the shuttle likedat. lol. oops. Anyway, after Sports and wellness I proceeded up the bloody hill to my CATS class ( Creative and Analytical Thinking Skills ) or something likedat. As usual the grp din do their homework... not very cooperative sia. wadever. anyway. we managed to get the work done and yay.
DIn wan to study in Ngee Ann so i proceeded to JE library... Where I chanced upon Vera and Jane... evil two of em din sae bye be4 leaving. oops. WAHA. kidding lar i'm not tt xiao qi. :P Oh yar there was Ya Wen and gang too doing some project. Oops i dunno if tts her name... memory loss... Bleh? Anyway, hardworking me studied till 430pm den went to Gombak to meet JUn Yang n fren. Yup. That's abt it for today. Muscles acheing. :)
Heart acheing too? tt was so random.

Many things have happened within this week... I added alot of random people on friendster last night... HAHA. Anyway, I found a nice pair of gloves for myself... Light weight training gloves, supposedly used to prevent injuries of the palm/fingers/hand. Can be used to support the hands during pulll-ups. Den again callouses do work better than gloves, trust me. That was so random.Anyway the main purpose of the gloves is to absorb any sweat that my palm secretes during photo shoots. PRevent rusting of the screws at the side of the body and keeps the camera dry. Also allows a firmer grip on the camera. I've saved about $150 lerr. I need 4 times that amount to buy the SB 800 flash... U must be thinking, I'm crazy, $600 for a flash. That money can be used to buy several new cameras lerr. Of cos, several cameras, but several lousy cameras. Casio recently came up with this 10.1 megapixel camera... What matters is not the number of meegapixels ( unless u realll wanna crop your photos that much... ). Instead its the CCD sensor and modes that the camera has got to offer. Dun bother buying cameras that have only a few modes and can do video recording. A videocam is a videocam. A camera is a camera. :) Anyway, I need that flash unit for NDP shooting. After which I will need to save another $800 for a telephoto lenses I think. Alot of money but i think its worth it. Better than buying funky roxy bags or fancy pencilboxes.... :P In my opinion that is.

I went to Borders yesterday and bought myself a bible on photoshop. Costs $ 70++ actually, but there was a discount to $50. After which I used my $10 voucher given by Mrs Tan Swee Suan last year. :) Actually I couldnt bear to use the voucher de, cos its like, an object of sentimental value. But it will become something useless if I were to leave it lying around. Thanks Mrs Tan! :) Argh. This makes me miss the past. Oh yar I met YuKun at the bookshop lor.
After borders, I went to Suntec where I saw my sis Ivy who was looking at some directory. HAHa lost her way perhaps? Anyway, I took some photos of the Vesak Day Programme at the fountain of Wealth. Posted em at my special photos blog ler.

I suddenly felt rather nostalgic... Sitting here in NP library and thinking of the past 2 years kinda makes me feel sad. The good old days of sitting in classrooms early in da mornings... The wonderful times of decorating noticeboards.... The times of dance...
And most importantly, the times I got to see my loved ones everyday in school. Its not possible anymore. Unfortunately. One must move on. I cant. I really love the good old days. Really really. There are some things which I just wanna shout into this blog right now, but I cant. Some people who visit my blog are just waiting to strike at the perfect moment in order to satisfy their hunger of seeing others suffer emotionally... I shall not give themm this chance; I'm weary of what I type. Sometimes I just feel like crying out loud... Freedom of expression does not really exist on this blog. Memories are flooding my head even as I type. There are somethings which I simply miss alot alot alot alot alot alot alot. I wun ever take em for granted. This post probably sounds weird to most of you; it doesnt seem to mean anything. But it means something to me. And I believe those who are close to me will understand every word and phrase. I'm not sad. Neither am I happy. I'm just, neutral. :)
