10.25pm
spring's coming yay!
sun's out,
skies are bright and sunny,
weather's getting warmer.
the only downside's that
my chocolate mcvities still melt
even when i put them at the window.
and training's getting better;
still crazily windy,
but at least its warm enough
so my fingers aren't numb
and stiff and painful any more (:
no more cracked skin and bleeding fingers yay.
i really enjoy playing with the first team,
at least i feel like i'm going somewhere,
that feeling of playing proper frisbee.
that feeling of trusting your teammates
that's so essential in the game.
with the seconds we were struggling
to even string 5 throws together.
we might not be one of the better teams around,
but i'm def still looking forward
to regionals next month :D
today also marks the start of lent,
and since i've skipped so many sunday services
i felt bad enough to decide
to try fasting this year.
doesn't seem that impossible,
one meal a day
plus minimal snacks throughout the day
to keep you alive
(i think, they weren't being v clear).
thank god for 87p mcvities hahahha.
plus coffee isn't forbidden (Y)(Y)
i eat wayyy too much anyway.
besides, less money spent on food
means more money saved;
and more money is always good huh.
life is good to me (:

2012
6.32pm
okay so i was wrong on two counts.
i didn't end the year sitting on a floor in london.
and the streets outside weren't deserted.
initially we wanted to just spend new year's
sitting around sean and junjie's room
cause it was cold and drizzling outside.
esp after an awesome meal by weixin's mum.
but after nua-ing around for a few hours,
at like 1130pm we eventually
decided to go catch the fireworks.
okay i was rather reluctant to go out,
but i'm really glad we did in the end.
it was really a lot better than i'd expected haha.
not in terms of the fireworks and stuff,
but cause contrary to personal belief,
there were actually hordes of people outside,
just that we were in the wrong places.
cycled to primrose hill to catch the fireworks
cause it was nearby haha.
and it had quite a good view la
despite it being quite far from
where the fireworks were.
and cause we thought that there
wouldn't be that many people around.
or so we thought.
the whole hill was teeming with people.
you couldn't see the outline of the hill
cause it was just all people on it.
(and cause it was pretty dark haha)
but yep we managed to arrive just in time
with maybe 10 minutes to spare or something
and amidst all the shouting and cheering,
amidst all the exploding fireworks,
just felt a tinge of comfort and peace.
i mean, after spending the last 6 new years
catching the fireworks with the band ppl.
it just felt quite normal and homely in some sense.
a piece of familiarity in a foreign land.
and so i ended the year
watching fireworks atop a hill
overflowing with bustling people.
and just as 2011 started with drinks at my place
we started 2012 with an absolute bang.
the drinking itself wasn't the best,
we finished 4 bottles between 4 ppl.
since khee xuan didnt wanna play.
okay la it was really quite funny at the end
we couldn't even hit it from this distance.
like less than a meter away.
but the aftermath was just so bad.
weixin spent 2 hours in the toilet,
junjie puked on his bed and slept in it,
(much like i did at tgcp, just that this time
no one was there to clean up for him)
and i puked into the sink the next day
when trying to clean up cause
the smell of alcohol was just too nauseating.
funny how i always end up puking
when baileys is involved hmmm.
and now we're all camping in the kitchen
cause junjie only woke up
and cleared his dirty sheets at like 4pm today
and it stank the whole room.
its really the most epic aftermath ever i think.
EPIC.

its interesting how a year
can make a whole world of difference.
a year ago i'd never have imagined
that i'd be sitting on the floor in a room in london,
deserted streets outside,
bubbling heart inside.
as the year comes to a close
its a time to look back,
to count my numerous blessings.
and what a beautiful year its been.
2011 has really been one of,
if not the best, years so far.
this year i'm thankful
1. that school isn't so tough
that i can survive academically
and train hard for ultimate at the same time.
2. for my ever supportive parents (Y)
despite all the stuff i say about them.
for always standing by me regardless of what i do
be it frisbee or driving or starbucks or uni.
3. for the friends i have over here.
i really don't know what i'd do without them.
:')
2011 was a year of change,
a year of meeting new friends,
and the sad separation of old ones.
the rediscovery of forgotten friends,
the drifting apart of close friends.
a year that began and ended
in totally different circumstances,
from sunny singapore,
to the cold and gloomy uk.
from bustling singapore,
to quiet and peacefully zen canterbury.
from happy starbucks,
to not-so-carefree uni life.
from financial independence
to living independence.
funny how i used to think that having an income
equated to being independent.
until i had to cook and do my own laundry.
from hcband.sg
to umm. the random group of friends.
i still miss lagging around
watching the world go by with them though.
:x
from eatdisc,
to kenttouchthis.
(found this oddly funny btw)
and the year ended with me
sitting on the floor in a room in london,
deserted streets outside,
bubbling heart inside.
nothing stays constant in life,
people change over time, priorities differ,
and unfortunately change is only
as understandable as it is painful.
just as 2011 was a year of change,
2012 will be a year of self-discovery.
here's to a great year ahead my friends.

why does it always rain
whenever i want to do my laundry?!
it gets so cold and i dont feel like
moving out of my warm room.
asdalskjdlaksjd.
but yep nothing much recently really.
just ultimate and work and more ultimate.
life's pretty routine now.
mondays are long lecture days, 4 of them.
tuesdays are long seminar days, 4 of them as well.
wednesday is frisbee day yay, no lessons.
thursday is useless seminars day, 2 of them from 10 - 12pm.
fridays are sleep in days, lessons from 12 - 2pm.
saturdays are for frisbee, 11 - 4pm
usually followed by soccer and stuff.
sundays are for frisbee in the mornings,
maybe some work after that.
and laundry at night weather permitting.
but yep.
last week before winter holidays.
can't wait yay :D
esp christmas and new year (Y)
oh and before i forget,
the obligatory birthday post.
sean's birthday 22/11/11
what a boy.
but yep we celebrated on the 19th weekend,
cause 22nd was a weekday so boo (N)
mmm nothing much really,
they went k-boxing in the afternoon,
before dinner at some italian restaurant.
i can't even remember the name hahaha.
so much for a one star michelin restaurant.
umm the really random group.
band ppl + melwan + calvin + shiwei
went back to the dorm for dessert haha
and to give him his presents
cheesecake courtesy of junjie
(and destroyed by weixin)
and melted tubs of haagan dazs.
see its supposed to have an S shaped
maple syrup/crushed cereal topping,
but our dear AEP boy screwed up.
and the melted ice cream.
and his poster!
quite sure this wouldn't have happened
if we were still in sg.
we even bought him a pair of prc pants.
and as is the norm,
drinking games after that
with weixin's disarono amaretto,
christmas morning ughh (N).
it wasn't that bad this time though,
no one ended up puking.
guess 3 bottles wasn't enough for all 10 or so of us.
esp since shiwei and kheexuan left
somewhere around the beginning.
i have no idea what this is supposed to be,
but i suspect it has something to do with "gums".
just a wild guess.
since we weren't hungover on sunday,
went out instead haha for a change.
went to some market some place.
i have no idea where ahhahhaa.
weixin led the way, and naturally
we got lost for the first hour or so.
but we found it eventually haha.
it was pretty interesting though haha.
lots of junk and bits and pieces on sale.
can't rmb much really its been quite
a long time since i went back to london.
almost a month alrdy. oh well.
4 more days till the end of school!
london and italyyyyy (Y)

10.13pm
seeing the men from 40SAR ord
really brings back memories.
just over a year ago,
i was that guy in the sweat drenched no.4,
dried blood on my face (irrelevant),
half dead from almost no sleep in 2 days,
but still grinning from ear to ear
after finishing the last mission,
where all that stood between me and ord
was R&R and an 8 hour flight back to sg.
i was that guy gleefully waving my pink ic
in front of all the ptp guys faces.
i was that guy with endless possibilities in front of me,
ecstatic at having my freedom given back to me.
i had so many post ord plans,
so many ideas, so much to do.
and none of that mattered cause
no matter what i ended up doing
i knew i was going to have the best year of my life.
i had the world at my feet.
that priceless feeling.
and the year that followed;
indescribable awesomeness.

12.40am
okay long overdue post, but still.
happy (belated) birthday cheryl!
cheryl's friends decided to throw her
a big 21st birthday bash,
(we'd never have done such stuff haha)
went down to london for the weekend.
turned out the party came in 2 parts heh.
awkward party yay!
midnight surprise at her place
which probably wasn't such a surprise
since we were making so much noise
instead of helping decorating her kitchen.
slacking instead of helping to blow balloons
partly cause sean can't blow balloons for nuts.
but its nothing new haha.
we are always that efficient anw
when it comes to helping out.
surprised spoiled,
but its the thought that counts la huh.
(and the £16 bus fare)
it really was all quite pretty though (:
okay la but tbh it was really quite awkward,
since we didn't really know her other friends that well.
at least i didn't, don't know about the rest haha.
but yep esp since it was such a confined space,
we were forced to stare at each other half the time haha.
times like these make me thankful that my 21st
was spent on the airplane here,
so much less troublesome haha (Y)
but oh well. we all love awkward don't we :D
hcband.uk with not-so-awkward friends calvin and melwan hahhaha.
so yep just lepak at one corner
and anti-social the whole time haha.
checking the other guys out
and listening to sean's snide comments.
and then when we got used to being awkward,
someone suggested playing taboo.
awkward upgraded to version 2.0 yay.
haha not cool to play retarded games with strangers.
quick game, then we excused ourselves
to save us the agony and pain haha.
returned back to sean and junjie's room
for more drinking games.
if disaronno tastes like christmas morning
(as claimed by chan weixin),
kill me on christmas eve please.
bleaugh.
had to get some stuff for the party the next day;
actually it was like really a lot of stuff
considering we wasted half the day away
being hungover hahhaha.
bo bian had to split up the work heh.
me and sean went to get cheryl's present,
the rest went back to fry goreng pisang,
as well as get a shit lot of jap
and korean food in the evening.
which is how me and sean ended up
running up and down oxford street,
trying to find a longchamp shop ahahha.
it was kinda fun though heh.
don't. judge.
i swear shopping for women's stuff is pure hell hahaha.
just the simple act of getting a bag,
and we have to choose between a tote bag
handbag, shopper bag or whatever,
small, medium, large sized,
and worst of all,
they all looked exactly the same.
horror hahaha.
its so much easier with guys;
we just have one kind.
ugly bag.
BUY (Y)
but yes finally got it sorted out,
went back where they were almost done
with all the goreng pisangs.
not like there were a lot anw,
they were deciding whether to cook
one banana for every one present,
but decided against it cause it was
too much trouble haha.
thennnn split up to get the food again,
band vs non-band heh.
calvin and melwan went to get the jap,
me junjie weixin and sean to get korean.
as it was they were having a busy night,
and we ended up waiting for about 45mins.
caught some much needed sleep
at the corner of the shop though (Y)
but yes, we finally got our food,
then lugged it all the way to the venue.
job's done.
then it was umm party no.2
which wasn't that bad haha
cause this time the room was lots bigger,
didn't have to stare at unfamiliar faces the whole night heh.
so yep just lepak at one corner
and anti-social the whole time haha.
checking the other guys out
and listening to sean's snide comments.
minus the awkwardness though ahhahah
since we weren't forced to make small talk.
nothing much really,
just sitting around, eating,
and mingling amongst our small group haha.
and then since cheryl's birthday coincided
with guy fawkes day,
out came the fireworks yay :D
one of the benefits of not being in singapore;
you can set off fireworks anywhere you want
just like a chinaman.
in the backyard,
on a birthday cake,
and umm in the sky.
it was all really very
very very pretty though
:D
then once again,
excused ourselves early,
had a more important party to attend
back at sean and junjie's place.
beer pong with 9 litres of cider.
the last i rmb was saying goodbye
to calvin and cheryl after we were finished.
yes, i don't rmb any of these at all.
nor the videos that weixin unintentionally took.
the next thing i knew it was sunday morning,
and weixin had his head in the sink,
puking his armpit hair away.
needless to say,
spent the whole of sunday
massively hungover.
good times huh.
