Tadaaa....!!

WooHoo... project's over! Just had my presentations today:) What's next would definitely be the EXAMS that would be approaching... Oh ya, and of course the loads of reflection writings we have to submit real soon.. argh!

Just to update you ppl who read my blog regularly, sorry.... i was really busy the past few weeks therefore i wasn't able to update my blog as often as i wished to... Having to juggle tests, projects, meetings, and of course filming is really a challenge! Well, thank goodness, now that i have completed my projs, i would have more time to study and also of course, read my scripts. haha!

Oh oh... Our dearest MARCUS CHEW book out last fri! wahaha! you should see him in his smart 4!! Suddenly he looks so manly all... haha! Kinda weird seeing him in uniform though! Anyway, after picking him up from Pasir Ris, we went for some drinks while waiting for Fang Yin to end work.. after that, it's SIMPANG all the way... Lol! Sat, as usual, we went for training in the morning and in the evening... Guess wad?! we went to watch ALONE! omg... anyone with high blood pressure and heart problems, i suggest you to stay away from this movie! wahahah! It was really weird throughout the whole show cus there was like the 4 of us, including Fiona, a new member in our ROC club... so theoretically we as guys were suppose to be manly and "strong"... in the end, we were like grabbing one another in the cinema... haha! Pls... when i say grabbing, i mean grabbing each other's arm and not.... ya, u noe wad la ah! haha!

As for sunday, it was the usual Church service in the morning before rushing over to Eliza's house in woodlands where we spent most of our time watchin movies?! haha! Yeah, we were suppose to be doing projects, but in the end, we spent more time eating and watching movies!! wahahaha! What a contradiction right?! To add on to our enjoyment... we indulged ourselves with our all time favourite Ben's and Jerry's ice cream while watching high school musical in the evening!! I really enjoyed the process of working with this group of mine.. though it was really weird in the beginning when our group was formed cus of some misunderstanding in the past, now i would proudly say that we are one of the best groups who are not only made up of great workers but also a team who is united and intimidating... Lol!

Well, it was all fun the last weekend... looking forward to the coming sat when we'll be going drinking:) cool...! I guess all of you can see that i'm really enjoying myself now... But, apart from enjoying myself, i'm still focusing on my studies:) No worries!!

Ok, i should sign off now or i'll just keep on typing till dawn. haha! Ciaos:)

Pheww... it's gonna be over!

After weeks of meetings and late nights, we're finally 80% done with our project. From the group meeting earlier, i could feel that many of us were kinda relaxed compared to a week ago when we were all rushing for the projects submission. Well, what's left now would be the project presentations and of course, the unavoidable EXAMS!! Wuaaaa!!

Well... thank goodness, after 3 years of my tertiary education, i'll get to celebrate my birthday this year!! For the previous years, it's either my exams fall on the actual day of my b'dae or a day after that.. I guess God is seeing that i'm so deprived from b'dae celebrations that he's allowing me to celebrate my 20th birthday with peace...:) Oh ya, talking about that, i guess that i'll be spending my 20th birthday with a friend of mine in Krabi... We've kinda planned our trip and if everything goes on well, i'll be leaving Singapore on the 27th, a day before my b'dae:)

Okok, i better go and read up on my project now... I'll be having a presentation tmr and of course many more to come the following week... so, pray that i'll do well ya?! Thnk you so much!!

Signing off now! Friends, take care of yourself, you'll be in my prayers:) Ciaos!

Picts...

Now you know what we do when we get bored while filming?! Lol:)

Oh ya, "Bao Jia Wei Guo" starts tmr!! Remember to catch it on Channel 8 @ 9pm:)

Signing off. Ciaos!

Projects and People

Projects rush... Yeah, the once a semester project rush is here!! First of all, i just wanna thank God for such a wonderful project group i have. They're people who really think deep into the project and generate great ideas. Anyhow, sometimes i really feel bad that i can't afford the time to meet up with them when meetings are called up... So.. let me take this opportunity to name out my proj grp mates: Corrine, MX, Crystal, Eliza, Xavier and of course, the man, Wei Yuan! Grp mates, thank you so much.

Alright, 2 projs submission is over, 1 more to go... After which it would be all the presentation and stuff, just hope that everything's fine:)

Ok... my weekend was really filled up with programmes... Had training on Sat morning, went home for a late breakfast b4 i went off to do some errands. In the evening after i break fast for dinner, i drove on to school to set up the projector and prepare the dance studio for the helpers who are gonna help out in the mizuno race this Sunday morning. And yes... my whole Sunday is gone... Anyhow, had a really good time bonding with my Main- Comm b4 i set out for SIP in Sept... Though it was tiring, but i really enjoyed myself:)

Well, life's short, live well and don't waste every opportunity to spend time with the people you love.

Ok, gtg.. needa practise my scripts... Friends, take care of yourself and have an enjoyable week ahead!

2007-2007

Something that happens once in a thousand years...20-07-2007... cool eh?! haha!

Anyway, just to keep all my friends updated, i've been really busy recently. Rushing projects, busy with the sports club and of course, filming. Well, i guess this is gonna go on for at least a month or so. So dear friends, if i can't meet up with you all, sorry ah! But... I'll try to find and squeeze in time for you ppl, so don't worry k?! Just give me a call or a msg:)

Ok, i'm signing off now, Ciaos:)

Can't fall asleep:(

Time check, it's 3am in the morning now and i still can't fall asleep... Hais. ok so i shall blog since i have not much time in the day to sit down and blog a new post.

Aights, i was out with Clement earlier for some movie preview starring Nicholas Tse, think it's called "Invisible Target" Phew... i strongly recommend my friends to catch this movie. It has this seriousness and suspense in it when it comes to the plot... But, apart from the action packed stunts that the actors have to do, there's this little parts here and there that were really funny:) Haha! i would say it's worth your money watching. For a person who seldom watch Chinese movies, i have to admit that i was totally engrossed in it! haha!

Other then that, life for me is really hectic... Lotsa pressure from school cus project submissions are around the corner and we're all mad rushing for our final lap in Poly... As for my work, it's being pretty good... Started filming on Monday for "Huang Jin Lu", everything went smoothly, there weren't many hiccups, but it was rather long hours filmining the 2 scenes. I'm suppose to film yesterday also, but i had to cancel it due to commitments from school... Filming again on friday, and many more next week... lets hope that everything goes fine for me:)

FRIENDS, how are you all? hope you ppl are doing fine too! well, if i'm free, we can always meet up:) Just give me a ring or drop me a msg k?! Other then that, i just hope that all of you are doing fine and "kicking" healthily:)

And... oh ya, b4 i end my entry, just to update u ppl who have been asking me the same question.... No, i'm not attached... haha! the girl standing beside me in my family photo is my FRIEND:)

OK, signing off now.... I should really try to slp again:) Ciaos!

Are we striking a balance?!

I was looking into my pictures and i realised that there are so many pictures of myself taken with friends. Well, of course it's a good thing... But on the other hand, i have a question here... Are we striking a balance between family time compared to the time we spent out with friends?!

Well, i believe many teenagers or young adults are guilty of spending too much time out with friends or work that we tend to forget about our own family. Or.... is it that we have already taken granted of our own family that we choose to ignore and not be bothered... For these past few months, i realised that my home is like a hotel to me... somewhere i go to have my bath and sleep... Sometimes, i don't even eat at home... Like mentioned, i was looking through my pictures and to be honest, it was so difficult to even find any pictures of my family and i taken together... How shameful can this get...:(

Maybe it's time we should reflect and think about our family and how much they care for us unconditionally... Or some of us should reflect upon our parents who brought us up so well, yet we choose to hurt or disappoint them... Life is really unpredictable, appreciating someone dear to you is something we should do... Take a minute off your time, tell mummy and daddy that you love them, i believe they'll be really happy:)

Well, as for myself, i choose to stay home today to just spend some precious family time that we don't really get to have every week... We had a simple dinner together and the time we shared was really wonderful... Looking from the smiles of my Dad, Mum and of course Granny, i know that they're really happy that their kids are spending time with them:)

So to all my friends out there, maybe you'll like to just take one day off your busy schedule and just enjoy the family time together. Trust me, a simple thing like this will not only strengthen your family bond, but also, it's a good form of relaxation!!

Signing off, Ciaos:)

Thank You Mediacorp:)

Oh ya! Fiona, thank you for buying me the banana cake! haha! If not for you, i'll be starving like crazy! Lol.

Ok, i just reached home after doing my imaging in office... All thanks to the producers and casting officers, i'm given another show! Hurray:) Anyway, i'm currently going to be filming this show called "Huang Jin Lu", or Golden Path in english. As requested by my producers, i'll be going to Bugis tomorrow to get my hair dyed BLACK! O.M.Goodness! why black?! Well, anyway imaging is done by the company, so i'll just adhere to it:)

Oh ya, We were doing our photoshoot in office, so Joanne Peh have to try on this dress that she'll be wearing in the show cus there's one scene which requires her to have a "tummy"... Why so?! Hmm... watch the show and you'll know why!!... Anyway, she was so fascinated with it that after the photoshoot, she took out her own camera and requested for the photographer to take some pictures of her! Wahaha! Funny:)
Ms. Joanne Peh.... you look good in that "BULGING" tummy! wahahaha!

Hmmm... are you all going to ask me who are the other stars in this show?! Mmm... shall not leak out now! You guys go and guess who they are! Or.... Wait till the show is out:)

Just to be nice, if i remember to bring my camera on Monday when we start filming, i'll take some pictures kaes?!

Aights, going to read my scripts now... TAKE CARE of yourself people!

Signing off now! Ciaos:)

I LIVE MY LIFE FOR YOU

Y'know you're everything to me and I could never see
The two of us apart
And you know I give myself to you and no matter what you do
I promise you my heart

I've built my world around you and I want you to know
I need you like I've never needed anyone before

I live my life for you
I want to be by your side in everything that you do
And if there's only one thing you can believe is true
I live my life for you

I dedicate my life to you, you know that I would die for you
But our love would last forever
And I will always be with you and there is nothing we can't do
As long as we're together

I just can't live without you and I want you to know
I need you like I've never needed anyone before

I live my life for you...

Signing off. Ciaos...

Woo~~ I'm a Happy Man:)

I don't know what's with today, but i just feel happy:) Just finish my lessons and i'm now in the club room blogging while waiting for my meeting to start.
Anyways, to start with.... Yes, i was late for my lesson this morning! haha! Lesson suppose to start at 9am in the morning and this smart guy here arrived in school at 10am?! cool right!! hahaha! OOps! Isn't this something i shouldn't be proud of?! Oh ya... guess the thing that made me happy today is the fact that i managed to flag a cab like 5 mins after i got out of house and.... the uncle who drove me to school is a Christian!!! The whole journey to school was such a luxury with worship songs played in the cab:) Something i really love to hear apart from MUTTONS IN THE MORNING! Wahahahahahah:)
After my lesson which ended at 11am, i went on to meet the "uncle" in our course, Dennis and his group mates for a light breakfast at the Temasek Culinary Academy... Just looking at our juniors going through what we went through in Sentosa when we had our Culinary and Service module really made me reflect on how fast and quick time flies... well, Marcus is going in to Tekong this Friday... that's how quick it is... Oh ya, we're meeting tomorrow afternoon for lunch at the club... maybe the last lunch with a pink IC for Marcus until 2 years later. haha!!
I dunno why... I feel happy today:) Probably it's the weather! super good weather today, rained in the late morning and the whole day was cool... Most importantly, we're blessed with Air- Conditioned classrooms which made it so comfortable for us while studying:)

This is just random... You're really sweet:)

Aights, breaking fast now! Signing off! Ciaos my friends:)

It's the rush of ALCOHOL again!!

What a night!
Wow, really, what a night it was... Kaes, let me blog down what happened yesterday. haha! You know my ROC club members are very "health conscience"... so we went running round the reservoir as we forsee that the night would be filled with much sinful eating and drinking:) True enough, right after the run, we headed to KFC for some sinful kentucky fried chicken! wahaha! look at how "health conscience" we are?!
Anyways, after Fiona, our dearest PRESIDENT arrived, we headed to the "MARTINI FIRM" in Mohamed Sultan Road where we had a drink each and a few shooters before we head down to Le Baroque in Chijmes where Fiona and myself went loose on alcohol! haha! Goodness, you should see how Fiona danced with the ladies, it was crazy! Wahahaha! Well, guess it's the "Sambuca" and "Bacardi 151" we had yesterday that now, Fiona and i are suffering from a bad throat and a wierd tummy ache! Anyhow, it was a really good night for me... was suppose to be a "goodbye" drinking session for Marcus before he enters into the Army, but.... in the end, it was me that went bonkers with the alcohol.. haha!
OH YA.... I managed to see Fiona's Identity Card last night!!!! haha! She looks so different compared to her photo in her IC... Really super different!!.... Oops! think Fiona's gonna kill me soon...:)
Anyway, Marcus, all the best in serving the nation. Fang Yin, keep up with the spirit of a Naval Diver and Fiona... All the best for your POL-ITEs:) As for myself, people, just pray hard that i don't flunk my ticketing test!!
Aights, SIgning off now! Ciaos!

Missing You...

Before you turn your face away and give up on all we used to have, listen to what I have to say.

When you left, I died inside, but I thought I had made the right choice

After you slipped away I tried to keep you while I still had a voice

Perhaps I was trying too hard and I should've pulled back, but instead I gambled my heart because never before had it been attacked like that.

A lot of time has passed us by and I know we both have our own dreams. But I've never known quite why I still don't feel like I'm complete

Because I loved you and you loved me, we were lost inside a fairytale beyond this world I could not see... Maybe that's why our love failed

Sometimes I think out loud and people punish me for even making a sound about you and me

We can never be, but I miss you, I miss you and I'm not sure what to do

Now you're gone, I can't seem to find another like you

Don't you know that I miss you dearly...

The Pieces don't fit anymore...

I dunno why, but i just have to get emo on a saturday... Maybe it's just the heavy rain in the morning.. argh!
Well, had supper with "President" and Andy last night in Simpang while sipping some Baileys... Been drinking alot nowadays...guess it's just the sleepless nights that made me drink more these days... Know something, i'm rather tired of acting strong in front of everyone, it's really tiring... Met up with Sherlynn on thurs night, went drinking all, realised that she really changed quite alot. Sometimes i just don't know how my heart feels... one part of me says move on, but the other half of me still loves her deeply. That's why after all these while, trying to get into another relationship fails me badly. I'm really shocked by some of her behaviour now, maybe i just don't know her enough or she really changed too much. Well, maybe it's better to keep some things as memories then going back, trying to fit the pieces together, which at the end of the day, might just hurt each other again.
Maybe it's good just to submit myself to God and let Him decide what's my next step. I wanna find back the old Joel.. The old Joel who was once fat, ugly, but happy and real... This is killing me, i'm tired... really tired...
Before i end my entry today, i wanna tell my Water Polo guys that i really appreciate each and everyone of you cus only when i'm with you guys, i see myself:) Next, Fiona, thanks for the Baileys, and..... I wanna see your Identity Card! wahahaha!
Signing off! ciaos:P

Disappointed...

I've had enough of the screamings and orders from you, i've had enough of the scoldings you gave, i've had enough of the discrimination you hurled, i've had enough of giving in and i've had enough of You! Someone who made me do squats when i scold vulgar languages in the pool, someone whom again and again threaten me... I've had enough of it... Every human has his/ her limits of tolerance! Once you've gone too far, you'll never be able to turn it back!

That very Monday, the 2nd of July 2007, in front of my team in Ngee Ann Polytechnic, with the presence of other competitors, You shouted "FUCK OFF" straight onto my face! Someone i respected as a coach, as an elder, what you did is nothing but childish and cheap! Still, i put down my pride, i played on for the last quarter and that's the end of it...

Till the day you put down your pride and say sorry to me, i'll NEVER return.

To my dearest team of TP, i've never given up hope on you all and please, don't give up hope on yourself... Your past captains and i have fought our way to continue TP Water Polo, so work hard and i know one day you guys would make it")
