just came back from sentosa this morning. it was a WHOLE WHOLE WHOLE load of fun. we set off on sunday morning @ around 1100 from church. took the bus that zhiyong chartered and we went on to Sentosa. earlier that morning at around 0800 the organisers, mainly comprising da simin, zhiyong, weiwen, junyang and zhiying were already there doing their last minute arrangements for the games.
after eating at the nearby hawker centre, we reached sentosa at around 1230. then got the island admission and we started on our first game, amazing race around the island comprising of 4 stops. it wasnt that hard, wasnt that easy. i guess was alright. the ppl in my grp were still ok lor. unlike huili who was horribly complaining that her grp was like shit cos certain not-so-desirable elements were there.
these were the clues:
1. hou4 lian3 pi2 (thick-skinned in chinese)
basically on the sentosa map, there is this picture of those "masklike" things which was the symbol for Lost Civilisations. over there, we had to blindfold four of my grp members, oh btw, i was the only male in the grp. then i had to name the 4 of them "darling", "honey" "xiao3 bao3 bei4" and "niang2 zi3" all meaning, dearest or wife.. along those lines. everytime i shouted out an instruction to move towards me, it had to be punctuated with their names and they would reply "qing1 ai4 de3, wo3 lai2 le" (i'm coming my dear) :S
2. a guava with the words "in chinese" and the number 1 stuck on it.
i didnt noe a shit abt wad a guava was called. called up my mum and realised that it was fan1 shi2 liu2. but according to the station i/c it was called ba2 le4. but it was still accepted anyway. cos i think got 2 different pronounciations. then we had to figure out where it was with the answer as ba2 le4. after sifting through the map, we realised it was Palawan Beach.. or otherwise "ba2 le4" ONE (the paper stuck on top). so lame.
we went there and they had to bury me. :X it was horribly not so fun.
3. a beer can with the words IM written in black on it.
i never knew what in the world it was. until i remembered one group going to Mt. Imbiah. after using my brains.. or wad was not buried previously under the sand, we solved it. IM-BEER. sounds like Mt. Imbiah? lol. we went there and shouted some spastic thing at the viewing squares there. then finished.
4. a song sang horribly out of tune by one of the gamemasters (zhiyong)
the song was long2 juan3 feng1. he sounded horribly out. it was only @ the chorus i realised what it was. we had to go to the dragon trail, go to the fountain with lots of dirty water falling down and kope balloons. as per normal, i sacrificed and got wet, helping my whole grp remain dry and cross over the challenge.
5. last clue: it was a map with a circle around the destination.
we walked all the way to the place and ended up at the chalet 2nd place. not too bad. we missed the first grp by 6 minutes!!! arrgh. there goes my adidas water bottle. oh. that was what the winning grp, who took a taxi got. damn damn damn damn damn.
that night, we had some heart2heart. it was horribly done. no one mentioned a shit abt me. so much for heart to heart. the one who talked abt me wasnt even serious at all. i thought it was a good time for reflection but that guy just treated it as a joke. assholic man. then we went to the beach, gazed at the stars, crossed the bridge, played a stupid hand game i taught them, returned and played POLAR BEAR. lol.
that was nearly all. it was fun.. really. esp the times we spent together. something someone mentioned in this "camp" or rather stayover made me think lots. she said "its really quite good to see so many people of different ages coming together and bonding" i mean. at first it seemed sorta natural. but after thinking abt it. she made sense. no where else could we bond together than as one. in christ. amen.
anyway, after sleeping @ 0400 and waking up at 1000 with bedbug bites on my feet, i went to school, rehearsed my scene for dramafeste, came back and slept.. ZZZ. tired man! =)
oh btw, i dunno what to write.. maybe a J-han chronicles or Weiquek could come in handy.. *winks*

THE BENHAN CHRONICLES PART IV
BENNY walks back to his house dejected after JENHAN rejected his "soup". He's mumbling to himself.
BENNY: Jenhan, you just wait and see... This is just the beginning! AFter i become more muscular, i'll force you to drink cream of Benny. Our lives will change too!
JQUEK and WEIHAN walk up behind BENNY and speak in loud voices so that he can hear.
JQUEK: Then maybe Jenhan wont have to come to me for cream anymore..
WEIHAN: Then what will you sell instead?
JQUEK: My feathers. U know duck feather pillows are the IN-THING now. Just imagine when Jenhan lies down on my downy feathers.. sniffing the smell.. of me. Just imagine him, in all that warmth and comfort. sipping on cream of JQuek. enjoying its taste and flavour and aroma. Freshly brewed. It just seems like a dream... (floating into dreamland)
WEIHAN spills some milk on himself after hearing that.
WEIHAN: stop making me jerk. its making me wet. and it will always be dream. a wet one in fact. Jenhan will never like you.
BENNY: WHAT?! JENHAN HAS BEEN FOOLING AROUND WITH JQUEK??
JQUEK: For one, it's because after fooling around i'd set that poor little Jenhan free. And then i'd .. i'd breed more Jenhans and ride them myself.. galloping across the fields! Unlike you. You make them bond like ionic bonds.. you. BONDAGE KING!
WEIHAN: And you whip them too! Sadist!
JQUEK and WEIHAN laugh. BENNY gets so terribly angry he whips them till they cream, hence the term. whipped cream.
JQUEK: (muffled because he cant talk with his mouth full) OUCH OUCH! oooh~!!! BENNY!! (squeals)
WEIHAN: More more!! I love it.. waaaaaahhh~!!! it stings! (squeals even louder) WHHHHOOOOOOOOOOTTTT~!!!
BENNY leaves them crying for mercy and walks off. JENHAN who happens to pass by sees them.
JENHAN: Weihan? Jquek? What happened.
JQUEK: I should not have gone.
JENHAN: It was that bad? (kneels down to caress JQUEK)
JQUEK: If i had not gone to see him. I might still have some hope of being with you left. But he took that along with my cream. (points for JENHAN to look at the wet spot on his pants)
WEIHAN: (ignores the existence of Jenhan) I told you not to go in the first place...
JENHAN: There is plenty more cream. So there must be more hope!
JQUEK: There's no point in hoping. Weihan disapproves of me going out with you and now Benny will not help me...
JENHAN: But JQuek, that's because one hates me (looks at Weihan who doesn't even look at him) and the other wants me so badly. Of course they're going to be like that!
WEIHAN: (to Jquek) You've just got to ignore him and like me.
JQUEK: (ignores Weihan and focusses only on his lover, Jenhan)But perhaps they're right.
JENHAN: Nonsense. And i hope u stroked Benny on his way off.
JQUEK: JENHAN!!
JENHAN laughs, stands up and starts to sing the song IT JUST FLIES.
JENHAN: DOES A BIRD TALK OF PLEASURE WHEN ITS LENGTH AIN'T LONG AND ITS GIRTH AIN'T WIDE. IT JUST TRIES.
JQUEK: but my bird...
JENHAN: AND A BIRD DOESNT WORRY WHETHER IT CAN CREAM. CAN BIRDS TELL THE TRUTH? IT JUST LIES. BUT THE FIRST TIME IT TRIES, IT IS TAKEN BY SURPRISE BY THE DEPTH OF THE HOLE AND THE SHORTNESS OF ITS POLE. THE NEXT TIME IT TRIES IT'S ALREADY GETTING BOLD. THE BIRD ISN'T TOLD YET IT FIRES, IN THE HOLE. IN THE HOLE!
JQUEK: You really think it's that easy?
JENHAN: DOES A BIRD WAIT FOREVER WHEN THE CHANCE IS THERE. DOES IT STAY AND DREAM? IT JUST CREAMS. DOES A BIRD CHOOSE TO LINGER IN AN OPEN CAGE? OR IT FILLS THE HOLE? IT JUST CREAMS. BUT THE FIRST TIME IT TRIES, IT IS TAKEN BY SURPRISE BY THE DEPTH OF THE HOLE AND THE SHORTNESS OF ITS POLE. THE NEXT TIME IT TRIES IT'S ALREADY GETTING BOLD. THE BIRD ISN'T TOLD YET IT FIRES, IN THE HOLE. WITH ITS POLE!
FEEL THE BIRD. HOLD IT HARD. OPEN THE CAGE. LET IT PEEK OUT. FREE TO PLAY. FREE TO BREATHE. LET IT EXPLORE. NEVER PULLING BACK. NEVER TURNING ROUND. LET IT TRY. FREE FROM THE ZIPPERS. FREE FROM THE CLOTH. LET IT FLY, LET IT TRY, MAKE IT HIGH! IT IS FREEEEEE~!
JENHAN is overly stimulated. Due to his lousy multitasking ability which only allows him to channel blood only to his bird or his brain, he passes out.
take it up and put it down.
8:36 PM

its coiled. its black. its curly. you play with it in your hand all the time. its an essential tool for many guys. jenhan loves to stick his mouth close to it. so does benny and weihan. and its horribly ugly. especially theirs. and NO its not their u-noe-what. its a phone.
i've realised how long ago was the last time i picked up my home phone, dialed a number and spoke to someone over the phone. i mean ppl have called me and i've talked to them. but i've never picked up the phone and initiated the conversation with someone else. i always talk over msn. i always talk with my hands. it's been a horrible 1 and a half years since i last picked up the phone and dialed a number and spoke to someone over the phone.. (handphones not counted)
its scary. thinking of talking to someone. thinking of something to talk abt so that there isnt an eerie silence over the phone.. sigh. i dunno. maybe its me again. spastic me. anyway. tmr's restaging of sing to the dawn. rehearsal @ 9am means i'll skip geog!! woohoo~! wangting's not coming tmr so i'm taking over him as a village boi. it sux. i dunno the actions and songs.
i hope many ppl will like it. the girls are coming down too.. may we do well. blessed.

Today was a horrible day. ok it wasnt really that horrible larh. considering that todae mornings english commontest wasnt much of a challenge. hahaha. =) it was rather easy i shud say. no tricky bits. no hard bits. all i have to do is to wait for the results to be back lor. then we'll judge if i did well or not.
back to the pt. shud i or shud i not. i think i shud. ppl say i shudnt. i think i shud. ppl still say i shudnt. hmm. i think i shud. and i dun care if ppl say i shudnt. the benhan chronicles. will return. ok. maybe benny thinks it sux. i dunno. jenhan thinks it sux too. dunno why. they are the ones featured in the story!!
THE BENHAN CHRONICLES PART III (adapted from Act I Scene VI - The Bridge)
A few days have passed since the bedroom scene. JENHAN is still angry with BENNY for not complying with his demands for... u-noe-what. BENNY tries again to coax JENHAN in him.
BENNY: I've been fantasizing about you all day.
JENHAN: I would have thought that you were too busy with JQuek to think about me.
BENNY: Jenny, please don't be angry with me... You know that i have my reasons for not teaching you. You know my feelings for you.
Pause.
BENNY: Come on (me)... Let's do it at home. I know you haven't had dinner tonight. I'll promise a specially sumptous meal. I'll make you lots and lots of...
JENHAN: (cuts in) You go ahead. I don't want any dinner.
BENNY puts his hand on JENHAN's lap, gently stroking it up and down. JENHAN makes no attempt to brush it away.
BENNY: But. You know i can't feed myself. Even with yao-ming i cant reach it. I need you to feed me.
JENHAN: No you don't need me at all. You've never taught me how to do it 3 times straight in a row. You've never taught me how to harden without softening. You've never taught me anything! (turns away)
BENNY: But you know very well who my best friend is.
JENHAN: Definitely JQuek. You're always hanging around him. Just imagine you and him a couple!
JENHAN laughs coldly.
JENHAN: Perhaps there's some justice after all.
BENNY: What do you mean?
JENHAN: Perhaps that your punishment for rejecting to teach me all the time. To think i've been so nice to you. The first time i professed my affections for you. Under the moonlit skies along the fair beaches of India. I didnt dare to look into your eyes for fear of rejection. I was so afraid. I was. And the first thing u wanted was sex. Like a horny bitch of a... yak. It just turned me off. Gosh. It was so horrible. Come to think of it. You ARE horrible.
BENNY: I would never hurt you for anything in the world, you know that.
JENHAN: Do I? If all the times you called me at night sounded like "6-235-35-35, Jenhan's Sex Delivery", how could you say that you didnt hurt me. I felt abused. Like yak during our geog classes. ABUSED.
BENNY: I promised to change my line after that.
JENHAN: Children's promises.
BENNY: I thought it sounded catchy. "Jenhan can i have you in me? You're so short, so dark, so ugly like me. You and I fit comfortably. When i stick my staff in ur holey." (sang to the tune of EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW IS HERE)It even rhymes!
JENHAN: ...
BENNY: I went to see the sex-guru Changyuan. Legend says that his prowess leaves even Weichong in utter bareness.
JENHAN: What for?
BENNY: Annual Nationwide Advanced Lechery Course. Short from ANAL Class. There was an exam too.
JENHAN: And where did you come in the exam?
BENNY: On the examiner.
JENHAN: I meant. How did you do?
BENNY: I failed. Even with the examiner pumping propaganda National Day Songs into our heads.
JENHAN: National Day Songs?
BENNY: He made us repeat nonstop (hums) "we've come so far together..." for like a zillion times, emphasis on the word come.
JENHAN: Then why did you fail? How far did you come? As in your ranking?
BENNY: It wasnt much of a feat. He told me it was only 30cm.
JENHAN: 30 cm??!!
BENNY: It wasn't really far considering that he was shorter than me.
JENHAN: Oh.
Pause.
JENHAN: I'm hungry.
BENNY: You ARE??
BENNY's eyes open wide in excitment.
JENHAN: (licks lips) i want it really thick and creamy. don't want it too.. thick. i may choke on it. and since i'm really hungry. i could drink a gallon. the last time i tasted it was so long ago benny. i just wanna taste it warm and runny in my mouth. slurping it down really well. plus. i like it warm. not cold. i want it straight from the... (turns to look up at BENNY)
By the time JENHAN finishes his descriptive essay. BENNY feels weak in the legs due to all the blood rushing to somewhere else.
BENNY: (playfully) Naughty Jenhan!
JENHAN: i just love cream of mushroom straight from the can.
BENNY: WHATT?!?! I thought you wanted...
JENHAN has already ran off ahead, unable to see BENNY's disappointed look.
take it up and put it down.

arrgh. okok okok. jenhan u are spared from the toture. no more benhan chronicles.. so sad. its ended. cos of the "eew damn gross leh" kind of comments i've been getting from the girls and guys in school. i mean. its alright wad. just take it that its a kind of creative expression or just.. funny stories which reuben writes when he has nothing better to do. i guess. maybe its OVER explicit and some people cannot take it.. okok. apologies. =)
i'm having jap test tmr.. must mug then sleep. not much happened todae except during geog period. everyone was very anti-yak todae. me and jenhan placed the geog notes under the table and started staring at it. she was stupid enuff to walk over and just as she was abt to scold us, she realised it was HER geog notes. so damn funny. =) i hate her. she deserved it. hmmph~! insulting woman.
but i'll be nicer.. not so mean the next time i see her. so that i can keep my word and be nicer. maybe i'll ask less qns. it may help.

THE BENHAN CHRONICLES PART I
Jenhan: Benny, may i speak with you sir?
The BENNY nods and Jenhan postrates in a seductive position infront of him.. taking care to expose where the sun dont shine straight into benny's eyes.
Benny: What is it, jenhan?
Pause.
Benny: I am here to listen. But only if u lick me first.
JENHAN finally plucks up his courage and licks BENNY inside out, upside down.
Jenhan: (gasping) I have come to ask for your advice on my problem down there sir. (gestures uncontrollably to bring attention to his ...)
The BENNY smiles and hardens.
Benny: I know. I have a hard bones.. and hard things without bones.
Jenhan: You know abt it sir?
Benny: Yes Jenhan. I noe your teacher, Weihan, well. I taught him when i was the village's HARDiest man. Till now, we still meet, soften and harden.
Jenhan: Harden sir?
Benny: It's all that we can ever do.
Jenhan: That is what i want to do, sir.
Benny: Weihan has told me you soften very quickly.
Jenhan: And i will harden even more under your tutelage! But Weihan wants to go in my place even though i CAME first. i want to COME. (abashed) no. I want to go. i should be the one...
Benny: "I...I...I..."? when does one so soft suddenly become so hard?
Jenhan: (abashed again) sorry sir.
THE BENHAN CHRONICLES PART II
Benny: I was told that you and Weihan were such good mates, always mating each other.
Jenhan: We were sir.
Benny: Until this?
Jenhan: Until this.
Benny: And what would you have me do with Weihan?
Pause.
Jenhan: My magical orbs, sir, they thought that you might subdue the yao-ming on Weihan.
Benny: You want me to soften him into letting you come?
Jenhan: Yes sir.
Benny: That it is your right and you will make him full*. (*full of himself = proud OR not feeling hungry...)
Jenhan: He would be so satisfied sir. He respects you so much.
Benny: All because it is so important for you to learn how to be hard.
Jenhan: That is all i want to do!
Benny: What is it that you are so anxious to learn?
Jenhan: Everything about rigidity!
Benny: Then learn your first lesson, child with the miniscule-cum-floculent one. And learn it the hard way.
JENHAN's one perks up in excitment as BENNY gets off the bed and saunters up to JENHAN.
Benny: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW IS HERE. IN THIS BEDROOM, IN THIS BED, IN ME.
Jenhan: What about my exotic strawberry flavoured condoms?
Benny: EVERY WORLD THERE IS TO KNOW IS HERE. OH JENHAN WON'T YOU SPEND THE NIGHT WITH ME. THE WEIHAN FOUND ENLIGHTENMENT WITHIN A HUNK LIKE THIS (points to himself). AND IN YOUR RUSH TO GAIN STIFFNESS ITS DWARVES LIKE ME YOU'LL MISS.
Jenhan: I don't want to gain enlightenment sir, i want to gain rigidity.
Benny: STIFFNESS IS AN ILLUSION. EACH HARDENING, EACH SOFTENING IS FADING FAST. NOTHING THAT WE FEEL OR TASTE WILL LAST. SOME THINGS FIRM, SOME THINGS CREAM, SOME THINGS LIMP. THE PLEASURE'S ALWAYS SLIPPING VERY FAST.
Jenhan: Some things can always remain hard, cream can be produced day after day, limp things can become turgid again.
Benny: NONSENSE, FULL OF NONSENSE. DIMPLY PIMPS. SIMPLY WIMPS. DARE TO DREAM. DARE TO CREAM. WET DREAMS, WHITE CREAM, AS THE DIMPLY PIMP, THE BENNY, HAPPILY BEAMS.
Jenhan: Life is not just about pimps. There are pimples too.
Benny: And what makes pimples interesting?
Jenhan: Watching a pimple bloom.
Benny: PIMPLES BURST.
Jenhan: Tasting sour cream.
Benny: CREAM TASTES BAD.
Jenhan: Learning to be hard.
Benny: HARD THINGS CRACK.
You see my jenhan, even your orbs down there (points below) are circles. though mine are sort of.. oblongish. dwarves have their's sorta out of proportion. i'm sorry. back to the song.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW IS HERE. IN THIS VILLAGE IN THIS TREE THIS LEAF. STAY AND SPEND THIS MOONLIT NIGHT WITH ME. YOU ARE MINE, YOU ARE HERE. YOU'RE IN ME. AND ABOVE ALL YOU KNOW ALL YOU'VE READ. HEAR THE WORDS THAT THE DWARFISH BENNY SAID
"THUS SHALL YE THINK OF STRAWBERRY CONDOMS. A NIGHT OF FUN, A TASTE OF STRAWBERRY. PAGE SIXTY NINE OF THE KARMA SUTRA. A DARING DREAM, A THOUGHT OF YOU IN ME."
Jenhan: But this is my only chance.
Benny: PIMPLES BURST. CREAM TASTES BAD. HARD THINGS CRACK.
Jenhan, there is nothing more that i can say that you'll want to hear if you don't like me..
BENNY exits, leaving JENHAN still prostrating in his seductive position, teary eyed.
take it up and put it down.

the power of words. yes. the power of words will be the theme of todaes blog entry. what is the power of a word? what gives words their power to break or build up? sticks and stones can break my bones but your words cannot hurt me. To what extent is that statement true? i say. its terribly a lie.
the power of words is not in itself, neither issit the tone in which it is spoken. the power comes from the heart of the person saying it. whether he means it or its just said for the sake of speech. a heartfelt thanks from someone who really means it has power. a deeply regretful sorry from an apologetic soul has power. even simple words "i am disappointed with u" has power. more power than it seems.
an unfortunate incident happened todae after founders day. it hasnt been just one event. but a series of events that sparked me into thinking abt myself. it was a joyous event until the bit when yaksy went on stage to talk abt Hong Wen Xian. to me, it was amusing. to jacq sim, it wasnt because of the fact that i was laughing at the mistakes she made.
maybe she doesnt noe the whole story. maybe she doesnt noe my enmity towards her. maybe she doesnt noe what happens in class with yak. maybe. she called me up after the whole thing ended and spoke to me. she told me she was very disappointed with me.
"for someone who made me take up the catholic faith and the daily bread and i try to make it a point to read it everyday. i m very disappointed."
the words stung. it just did. and it hurts. because the words have power. they do. they were said sincerely. i could tell she was disappointed with me. i was disappointed with myself. previously in yak's lesson. she told me off for takin her transparencies without her permission first. "i really doubt u can achieve what you wrote on the exercise for your career" it stung again.
even earlier before. tang talked to me too. she said i was capable of great things. she taught me in sec 2, 3 and 4. though she doesnt noe everything abt me, she noez quite a huge chunk. she said i should be thinking of what i want to leave behind in RI. issit a legacy that everyone will look up to? or a reputation that everyone will trample upon? it stung too.
too many teachers. too many heartfelt comments. too many wounds. too many fears. too much pains. this got me thinking abt religion. why the saying "live each day for christ"? why have a religion? what are you doing for jesus? if you can shine for jesus, go ahead! but what if not? am i living a life that brings shame to christ from the POV of those who look upon me?
testimony. testimony. life is a living testimony. dun talk abt how u want to do great things for christ when your life is a pile of shit. your life is the best living testimony that anyone can see. are you one who shines? are you one who makes ppl think at least 300 million times before they would wanna accept christ?
from now on. i will change. i m sorry. say words that build up and encourage, not words that tear down and destroy. bless me, god.

currently at a frenz house now. starting this stupid blog.. am really tired tired. i wanna sleep. lol. i've just eaten terribly good food cooked by my mum's frenz daughters father. lemme tell u what it was.
it started with steak. ok. there was ONLY steak. but steak tasted really good. the chef was a TERRIBLY marvellous one. considering that he is my mum's frenz daughters father = my mum's frenz husband = my frenz father. but nvm. it was REALLY well done. really delicious.
then the steak was airflown by my dad over to singapore. not bad sia. lol.. its really flown from dunno-where. but it tastes really good. wad do u expect. its SIA. *laughs head off* yup. good food man.
to go with the mmmhhhmmm-totally-absolutely-deliciously-yummy-tasty-mouthwatering steak was soup. it was cream of mushroom. to go with the soup was.. garlic bread. warm straight from the oven garlic bread that was so crispy. i could taste it. their eating it outside!!
and there was this HUGE bag of fries. it wasnt a bag. it was a gigantic plate of fries. although very oily and very salty. it was ok. thank god i only ate 2 mouthfuls. didnt wanna be unhealthy.
the greens and the beans. greens was long beans. i didnt really like that. was abit uncooked. would have preferred baby carrots. the beans was heinz baked beans. not too bad.
so when i added that ALL together. it looked so beautiful on my plate i nearly didnt wanna start on it. the moment i bit into the steak.. the juiciness. woah. overflowing. wasnt too cooked, wasnt too uncooked. just right!! *smacks lips*
when i reach home or tomorrow, and have the script on my lap. i shall write more abt the benhan chronicles.. lolx! i'll be back!!

hmm. currently. i heard that james, shumin, chere and HULIN is interested in Festival of Praise. i think its gonna be great. what beats one whole night of praise and worship.. esp by HILLSONG. woooott~!! they rock man. lol. we'll bring the whole indoor stadium down. anyone else interested? its free..! and it doesnt matter if u're christian or not. at least u get to see what WE christians do in church. it aint abt sitting there singing hymns u noe.. lolx.
school todae was utterly fascinating. jee nee lost her voice, tang didnt come for lesson. the comical thing was that jee nee came into class and started croaking. then she decided to write instead of talk, "You all will have to keep very quiet. I have lost my voice, but i m trying to conduct this lesson." not bad for a woman who loves to scold. finally peace and silence during english class.
ms tang didnt come to sch todae. some guy, i forgot who, came up with a theory of why she didnt come to sch.. "she and jacq sim rebonded their hair together, so they probably looked into the mirror and saw themselves, thus they became sick" then i replied. but jacq sim is in school todae.. oh btw, she looked really plump in the skirt she wore todae. "hmm. maybe they saw each other." hahahaha. so mean rite? ms sim is so nicee. =)
mr krishnan was even nicer. he let us eat sweets during the history test. i mean like.. so nice of him to get sweets for us. and guess what. he told us that his car had an accident while he went to buy those sweets from marks and spencers from us. oh man. poor thing. i hope its not very expensive. mr krishnan is a REALLY REALLY nice teacher. erm. just like ms tang (just in case she happens to read my blog) hahahah.
history test was bullshitty. the first question seemed so difficult. then i realised it was just a rephrasal of yet another common question. but arrgh. there was sumthing different, and i missed it out!! so pissing. nvm. i wont do well for my last history test!! *sob sob* i sorta prepared the second question in class after walking by cheesiongs seat and seeing that thing in his notes..
he happily told me it was in wendy clark and thank god ms tang wasnt here. so i could use the free period to mug. otherwise i would have died a really really horrible death.. BAD.

12 days to post production party @ shumin's house. lalalalalala. reuben is waiting for that day to come like theres no tomorrow. man. i think its gonna be fun. plus i m gonna go off to sentosa that night and probably stay there until monday morning. its a church thing.
another thing to look forward to.. 3rd-5th of June is choir camp! lol. not that i m super enthusiastic abt that cca of mine. but its a camp. and its gonna be a camp organised by the sec 4s and also the last camp i'll probably have in my life in RI.. abit sad. abit cryable. but i dunno. i'll miss the people there. maybe i DO have feelings for my 4 years in this lousy cca.
next. there's FESTIVAL OF PRAISE on the 4th and 5th June @ Indoor Stadium. Guest worship leader.. shud be Darlene Zschech. Hillsong is coming ALL the way from Australia. like their night of praise and worship last year in the indoor stadium.. this is a night not to be missed! btw, i m going on the 5th June (sat nite). interested ppl.. drop me an sms or email. and plus. its FREE ADMISSION!! what are you waiting for??
if u wanna noe more, sms me or msg me on MSN. =) thats abt the few announcements i have.
then hmm.. oh yea. i got back geog todae. i now proclaim to the whole wide world and all who have visited my blog that I HATE YAKSY! i thot i could be nice to her. she insulted me so terribly todae. i felt like telling her to f*** off straight in her face. shes such a bitch. as if shes doing well in her profession. not really cut out to be a teacher is she? FREAKING BITCH.
dun end my blog on a sour note because of a smelly cu__t. (fill in the blanks. it's the letter after M and before O) at least i got a 16/20 for a geog quiz i didnt study for. and this is not evidence that she is a good teacher. its called common sense. todaes jap CT was.. i shud say. ok larh. i dunno. i have a feeling i wont do well or badly. like in between. history test tmr.. MUGGGGG!

hmm. todae is monday. got back bio test. did rather well i shud say. highest in class was 38/40.. dunno which bugger got it but it wasnt me. i got 36.5/40. was so pissed with my essay question. oh yea. if u dun noe.. section A and B was the multiple choice and open ended questions. whilst section C is the essay question. section A and B was worth 30 marks and section C, 10 marks. i scored full marks for section A and B, only to get a pathetic 6.5/10 for my structured!! work harder reuben!!
tmr is jap test. studied for it just now. i came back @ around 7plus after dramafeste rehearsal. wasnt much of a rehearsal. i was helping wesley plan the timetable of all the meeting dates. i thot that was the job of probably assistant director. but considering that only a pathetic 7 people turned up, with 1 from Hullett and a couple from Morrison joining it. it really sux.. hope dramafeste turns up really well. =)
i shall await my SS test results. azizul said that his class did badly. hope we did well.. sigh.

new ppl came to church. we're having new ppl everyweek. so cool. lolx. i dunno larh. its a bit weird seeing so many new ppl but i still thank god for it. waiting for sch tmr. tue is jap test, wed is history. gonna die. waiting for more hair.. =) bye~!

arrgh. i fell todae. it was a valiant attempt in my less than 5 minutes on the interhouse rugby pitch between Hullett and Bayley to tackle no one other than our dearest Sing to the Dawn lead.. kwai who ran like the wind, cutting through the defense or the lack of it cos Reuben and Ben Tan were on the same side attempting to defend the Hullettians from breaking through and failing terribly miserably.. lol.
pls note the vocabulary used for example "ATTEMPT" = failure after that.
nvm. that was the most throw face moment in my life.. i still remember inter class rugby.. was it? sec one or sumthin. we played against azizul's class for PE. it was touch rugby then. in the glorious moment when reuben held the ball in the rugby pitch on the green turfs of RI and sprinted like the wind.. gliding through the defense's outstretched hand then i saw azizul. i faked a pass and continued running on. only to be touched.
lol.. dramatic writing. sigh. dunno larh. i tripped and fell, had a scratch on my right knee. bayley got second.. yay! =)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
ok. i just came back from dinner with the RGS STTD cast and crew members and RI's cast and crew members. a total of 20+ plus people went, with the rest going home earlier. haha. poor ike had a music lesson at 8.30pm @ clementi and only left bishan at 8.15pm. all the best man.
we finally watched the whole video. sigh.. it was horrible cos they had to show us the first half from the matinee of the saturday show and the 2nd half from the first night cos of some technical problems. then the best sat nite show had only our heads taped so we sorta couldnt see anything.. ARRRGH! but it was good all the same. shumin and kat can sing very well!!
then after that we went to J8 food court to eat. along the way, me and kat were doing this spastic CHINESE accent. so we spoke everything in chinese. shumin was commenting on how fake it sounded. i thot it sounded so real.. so zhen1. lolx. dunno larh. we actually wanted to take neoprints, but realised that the neoprint machine was gone. so... no more lor.
we left at around ten. got back home, bathed, and blogged.

hmm. todae was fun. or i shud say what we did todae was fun. it was chem lab lesson todae. we made esters. not the female ones, but those u mix alcohols with acids to form. not too bad. made a couple of nice smelling ones. i made.. erm. pineapple flavoured and happened to smell jenhan's oil of wintergreen which smells like sarsi. however, the rest unsuccessfully turned into UHU glue smell. yucks.
actually wad was fun was AFTER chem lesson. as the whole class realised. the period after chem was english.. by our dearest Mrs Lim Jee Nee. =) and in the chem lab, mr tan was saying "pls keep the stopper of your butanoic acid tightly covered. it smells bad. and thats why its kept in the fume cupboard".
immediately after lesson ended, i grabbed a boiling tube, poured in 5cm3 of butanoic acid which smelled like S-H-I-T. mr tan likes to spell it out like a chemical formula. cant he just say SHIT? lolx. i took the boiling tube with a stopper, though it still stank like hell, ran up to the second floor and by the time i reached, the smell had permeated to the whole corridor. the geppers and sec 3s were angry.
i heck cared them. partly cos there was a greater plan, and partly cos i was sort of immune to the smell. i dunno why. i was the first to take the butanoic acid from the fume cupboard. the whole world complained it stank, but i thot it didnt. and my nose was perfectly fine. no sniffles. no blocked. i could smell it perfectly well. but it didnt stink really much. to me of course.
the fun bit. i smeared the door handle with butanoic acid, went downstairs, passed the beaker into the chem lab and ran up again. derek was guarding the door to prevent idiots from using it. finally jee nee came. she happily opened the door and complained abt the smell. i guess she didnt smell her hand. it was so funny.
she tried using the com, but it wouldnt work. so she called the IT dept guy to come up, who also opened the door with the handle. hahahaha.. oopsie. the staffroom's gonna stink. throughout the lesson cos we didnt turn on the aircon, she was wiping off sweat from her face with the hand she opened the door with.. poor thing. hahahahahahh.
4M rocks~!

as per normal. i came late for class again. and as per normal. oei geok liong wasnt REALLY happy considering that it has been the 3rd or 4th time i was late for an NMA. sigh. its not my fault. i always take that stupid bus which brings me to sch @ 810am!! arrgh.
i've been pondering much. wondering what does gay mean (not because i'm gay, but becos some PEOPLE think i m gay lol). i mean. not many ppl go think abt it. but what defines gayness and nongayness. being gay = loving guys if u're a guy and loving girls if u're a girl. what determines a love from a like. is a like always a sized down version of love and love a 50cents upsized version of like? i dun really noe.
i've seen gays before. gays in RI. i guess. its QUITE common considering that its an all guys sch. but its not a really good thing. anyway. who determines gayness. i see guys in my class hugging one another. i mean benny goes around hugging chee siong, lionel ong goes around hugging alaric. but thats not gay. then who determines whose gay?
maybe huggings not a good example. but i guess. gayness and wadeva cannot be determined by actions alone. i dunno if thats true. but thats my sort of reasoning larh. BTW. I AM NOT GAY. ok. jenhan thinks i m.. i shud start a poll.. =) teach me!!
oh. yea. i read up somewhere that gays arent happy people. oxymoronic? i dunno. but i noe that true happiness. lies in loving someone that loves u back. and. loving THAT particular someone probably has to be of the opposite gender. as for me.. i've yet to find true happiness. but. i m STILL not gay. =)

guess what. we skipped 3rd lang todae. hahahahahahahaa. omg. come to think of it. it was so horrendously, horribly, funnily evil. let me use chim english (if i have the capability to) to explain what happened. ok. maybe not. simple english suits me better.
we went down to 3rd lang centre. Sergius could not go cos he had some founders day rehearsal crap. then. since the whole world didnt have class, (the sec 1s-3s have common tests and midyears so they have no third lang and only japanese lang sec 4s have class todae), we decided happily to skip class.
at first we were reluctant. not we. the 4R ppl. lolx. then after going down, we found MOELC deserted. thus we decided against going. and our dearest 4 who sacrificed, BINGSHAO, CHORKIANG, RONGEN and ZHENGKANG, went to find umpaporn and tell her that the rest of the class thought there wasnt class todae and they were the only ones who went down.
the fact of the matter was that we were hiding in the canteen cos rong en told us to.. hahaha. and he called me after that, saying that umpaporn would cancel class if no one turned up after 10 minutes. well. OF COURSE nobody turned up after 10 minutes. we left the MOELC at 2.30pm. ironic. so fun. hehehe. =)

todae. was another boring day. wad was interesting? hmm. the funny faces i got when ppl saw me in a different hairstyle. darren was commenting. "first the super long centre parting, then it became short and spiky, now its short and short." lolx. not too bad. jquek and i were debating on changes. whether changes should be significant enough to be called changes. i was telling him that insignificant or gradual differences should not be called changes. changes should be drastic. abrupt.
my mum finally developed the photos for me. hmm. i looked thru them. still passable. altho they could have been better taken, esp the grp shots, i.e. the shots not taken by me. but the rest were ok. haha. i liked the slut photos. REALLY nice. i shall bring them to sch tmr to show the class. weihan borrowed my script. joshua wants it. so does wesley. wads the fascination anyway? maybe STTD rox to the core.
anyway, wishing everyone all the best for their CTs i.e. the sec 3s (our dearest musicians, ike, zhaohan, shanghui, rayner and bing liang)and my beloved 1A and special mention to. kevin (the sociable sec one who has been deemed gay by eddy cos he hangs around sec 4s all the time) and yisheng from 1J. =) hope u guys do well!

STTD!!!! I.LOVE.STTD! it was SUCH a fabulous show. even tho nobody like the monk's singing.. SIGH. lolx. nvm nvm. it was a really great performance that night. i didnt screw up. the audience was better than the friday nite one. well. lots of ppl from the GEP bloc came. they took up nearly two rows. heres an account of what happened that night.
we started off with the half-filled matinee show. was rather discouraging. cos i didnt see many ppl. altho i did see jiaxi. she gave me a balloon with a message on it. it was purple and very nice. but stupid akesh had to use a stupid rose with a stupid thorn to burst that balloon. ARRRGH. AKESSSH!! i screamed at him and walked off very pissed.
then i gave out my cards. gave to everyone. nearly everyone except akesh. cos i was pissed with him for that. even the musicians got them. hopefully they like the card. it was rather ugly in my opinion. cardboard with a colour piece of paper stuck onto it. then i wrote their name in jap, wrote my note on the coloured paper behind and passed it to them.
i got letters from kat, bao, joanna, wenyi, shumin, waikit. kat and shumin told me to open my hand and they stuck a candle there and said "you light up my world" =) thot that was really innovative. well done!
then we had a debriefing session. ike was on my left. yihern was on my right. i was pissed. they told me to calm down.. then we had our dinner. as per normal it was chicken rice again. not too bad.. but that night there was lots and lots of blood.
then we went for preparation like 15 minutes before the house opened. akesh led it.. kats voice improved. it actually came back and the whole world was cheering for her. its abit sad i wasnt mentioned at all in her blog. i guess, maybe i aint that impt. she probably named nearly the whole cast. but nvm larh. who cares. the abbot is wallowing in self pity again.
oh yes, before that in the Act I of the matinee show, shawn had the bamboo pole thing rolled over his big toe nail. he was dripping blood all into the dressing room. and he got sent to the hospital. sigh. it must hurt. be strong hor. it'll heal quickly.. hopefully. i even saw the red nail. i screamed. i was horrified. that was before dinner. i dunno how i managed to eat the bloody chicken.
then final makeup touch up. special thanks goes to max for her wonderful artistic skills. really made me, armanda and joanna look really old. then we went on to our last show for the nite. they did a mass prayer session. i didnt go. i was listening to the musicians for the last time. they are such talented ppl. thanks goes to zhaohan, ike, rayner, yihern and shanghui. =) u guys ROCK.
oh yea. just before 730pm, yihern was playing church songs and reuben was singing. then ike was commenting on how christian an abbot shud be.. lolx. such a.. juxtaposition.
everything went smoothly. after the city scene i went to get dressed. in record time in fact. after so many practices i finished dressing before the intermission started. previously it took me around. 15-20minutes with cheng chais help to get dressed. i did it all by myself that nite. SOO pro.
lol. everything went fine until the end then everyone screamed and cried and teared and shook hands and hugged. oh yea. did i tell u. i hugged more ppl in the two nites of STTD than i've ever hugged in my entire life. not bad. reuben made a record. hahaha. then we went out to meet the audience.
it was fabulous. many geppers were there, benny, jenhan, derek, daniel, cheesiong, weihan etc. etc. SO many i couldnt count. we took many pictures. slut photos, mass photos, good photos, gepper photos. etc. SOO many. then i ran out of film. so wasted. wad was memorable was when i wanted to take a pic with the musicians, the whole cast came running to me. hahahaha. reuben is.. attractive!
now that STTD is over. i still miss the ppl there. i m hoping for some record to come out. either the dvd or vcd or sumthing. photos will be developed tmr and collected on tue probably. it'll be SOO fun looking @ them. and when i took photos i sort of shorteened. prob cos i didnt wear shoes and i lacked hair. jenhan was as tall as i was. imagine that.. impossible!! lolx!
anyway, back to normal sch life. nothing to look forward to. only tests and more tests next week. till then. I LOVE ALL THE SING TO THE DAWN CAST AND CREW MEMBERs! WE ROCK!!!!

todae was great. it was full house seating. nearly... every seat was filled. and it was SUCH a great performance. before we started.. ppl were breaking down into tears and like saying that it was the first act of the two days, i.e. todae and tmr. plus everyone commented that they like my hair.. hahaha. cos it was different. well i dunno larh. its up to u to judge. overall todaes performance was great. oops did i repeat myself. altho kat had a bit of a sorethroat, she still could do well.. GO KAT!
jeenee and joanne ng came down todae, along with many of the china exchange ppl from RI and RGS. plus the whole bunch of ruggers. oh yea. the audience todae.. was fabulous. lol. they were quite nice larh. but a bit rowdy. like laughing at any shit joke. even tho it wasnt funny. in particular, the scene Cos Men are Men, starring Vichai (Akesh), the grandmother Rachanee (Amanda) and my own. the audience laughed during my song.. i dunno why. weird ppl. and i thot they were gonna fall asleep.
arh yes. i got flowers todae. 3 in particular. from joanne ng, one from i think wilson and another from a girl... yes. wan lin. yea. lol. we mixed around in the foyer after that. quite fun larh. got to socialise with quite alot of familiar and unfamiliar ppl. acting is SO fun. plus i didnt screw up todae. which was fabulous. it was the first time!! could u believe it. but i was trying to suppress my laughter. was really funny that the audience kept laughing. nearly died.
hopefully i wont be too tired for tmr's show. got 2 more to go. gan batte!!

hmm. i wonder if physics test was hard. i heard SS was a killer. i wonder. i ponder. i think. hows the class like without me? i think its quiet. much much quieter. like 3 days of peace and no-nonsense. ok.. maybe there will be nonsense. cos theres still JQuek and Changyuan rite. hahaha. those twins. oops. wrong pair. i think class is quieter. but maybe less fun. or issit just me. like making up bullshit to make myself feel impt. i dunno.
todaes rehearsal wasnt too bad. it was quite good in fact. the last time i sang my song. i only spoilt one bit. but still the musicians were kaobehing. sigh. okok. maybe it was really bad. but u cant blame me. in the spastic song, i m supposed to sing, then talk a bit to dawan, then continue singing the stupid song. and how in the world can i keep in time with the rhythm of the song. its chao hard. i've been trying. and i got everything except that part. then during debrief todae, that guy had to say that i forgot one bit.
ok. maybe i was being too mean. he only meant well that i forgot that bit. but the thing is tt he doesnt noe i m trying. i mean. who wants to freaking screw up a song and throw his face down the drain?? I DONT EITHER. here i m trying my best, there he is telling the whole world, and mind u, the debrief included all musicians and cast and crew. my face. was hidden in my robes. gosh. arrgh. more practice tmr and it will be perfect by that night.. the whole world will love the abbot. trust me. hmmph`!
ah yea. we didnt try out makeup todae. but tmr will be great. meeting @ 9am. lalala.

sigh. the shocked faces, the astonished looks, the horrified expressions. all because of the HAIR. or the lack of it. yes yes. i shaved it all. ok not all. but most of it. the next time u see me, u wont be seeing spikes. u'll be seeing more scalp than hair. and i proudly say that theres less hair on my head than any other part of my body. hahahaah. =) yup thats the length of the hair. DAMN DAMN short. maybe i'll be wearing a cap. hmm.
anyway, the first thing that happened when i stepped into a house was a scolding on how ugly i looked by my mum. well i mean. if ur son looks terrible with no hair, the best thing u shud do is to add fuel to the fire, salt on the wound by commenting on how ugly he looks. actually i think its alright larh. needs some time to get adjusted to. yup. but she scolded me for cutting my hair and how i looked so monk-ish. yay. i feel so happy. insulted by my mum.
i went to bathe. the next thing that happened when i came out was yet another chiding. not scolding larh. cos she said it WASNT scolding. she was merely asking in a very. offensive tone. she was saying that i spent too much time on drama and nonsense these few days. and i was telling her that it was only this last week cos the performance would be this fri and sat. well i guess shes concerned for my schoolwork, but doesnt she noe that apart from this boring mundane sec 4 life of studying. drama is the only thing that i take interest in. and DEFINTELY not choir. choir sux.
i dunno. maybe shes concerned. maybe shes trying to say that she loves me. i noe.. that she cares. but does she have to say it that way??

from tmr onwards, its gonna be nonstop fun. i guess, tmr after 3rd lang, we'll be having a full run thru of the 2nd half and since i have finished remembering my lines, it shudnt be a problem. just need more coordination with the musicians. i think ike is cool. hes got a damn interesting name. IKE. IKE. IKE. hahahaha. sounds funny just pronouncing it. =) oopsie. shudnt be mean. i m just wondering what his chinese name is... "ai4 ke4?" lolx. bad abbot.
todae sch was ok. started off with a career talk. which wasnt much of a career talk. the bullshit that the guy said on stage was basically what i could have done too. without any background information. was sorta boring. then there was this commotion in the hall cos a cockroach was running helter skelter. the boys who were sitting near the cockroach started jumping up and down, others squealed literally, and tried stamping on it. all of it in the middle of the talk. could tell how stunned the speaker looked. but it was funny. he eventually laughed too.
tmr i m getting back my test. my HCL mid year paper 1. scared? i dunno. i already got a 74/110. what can be worse? :X keeping my fingers crossed. i look forward to sing to the dawn. but since my history test and physics cant be taken. i'll have to take like 3 tests next week, with an additional bio test on wed.. sigh. bad bad bad. hope i will study hard. maybe i'll study physics now. and then go for test tmr.. hahaha =) dunno. blog more laTER probably. bye~!

hmm. today wasnt THAT interesting. church in the morning, went back home, slept till 5, did a little filing, then came here to do my blog.. well. i m now torn between going for 2 different activities held on the same days. one of which is a captain's ball tournament between all the 16 methodist churches in singapore. the other is a choir camp which will be held in school for 3 days. sigh. let me weigh them.
option one: captain's ball tourney + amazing race.
its gonna be as interesting as all the past years that i have joined since sec 1. well. its a great event for the chinese congregation methodist youths to get together. plus i think the praise and worship shudnt be that bad.. considering that there are praise and worship leaders from 16 different churches. but. last years was a bit screwy. so i dunno. also. theres a new system of groups, where they will merge people from different churches in activities. i think that is a GREAT GREAT opportunity to make frenz. sigh? how? gonna miss team building exercises and mixing around with the rest of the world? I WANT TO MAKE FRENZ!!! =)
option two: choir camp.
going for choir camp and organising it are two different matters. this being my last year in RI, i guess, its not like i will be organisin anything fun. not that i m really into organising of activities, but its really my last year with the choir, and my last year to tekan all the nasty disgusting ppl who have been mean to me *snarrrls* lol. plus, i'm on quite good terms with the sec ones in choir.. best with them even tho i only noe them for 4 months. and this means that i will be able to have lots of fun. and its unlimited power. sigh. how?? i also wanna have fun. i mean. its one of the last few things i'll get to do in sch, before i start mugging nonstop...
pls offer ur views to this confused soul in the tagboard!! =) thanks!

rehearsals from 10am - 7.30pm.. how many hours is that? around. 9 hours? omg. i actually put in 9hours. ok. actually not 9 hours. its much less, considering that we had nothing to do until around 2pm in the afternooon.. so that makes 7hours. and not counting the stupid costumes and time we spent doing nothing after that in the LT1, that means only 6.5 hours of productiveness. 6.5/9 = around 72% productiveness. better than 10% like yesterday. lol.
needless to say, the abbot has the MOST BESTEST (no such word but i have to use it to show the contrast) costume around. the rest of the world has SHITTY coloured shirts and pants. plus some dun even fit at all. u have our dearest isaac who happened to have a chao small shirt. our dearest seok whee comes along. pulls off my shirt. ok she didnt, but she told me to take it off, and pass it to isaac. so that i can wear a nice little shirt for the stupid city scene. which i happen to be in the background so i "cant be really seen"...
damn. i got one of the nicest looking and just nice size white shirts around, and she has to steal it from me. i was so pissed after that. but nvm. anyway, the abbots robe is a yellowish brown long piece of cloth. and MIRACULOUSLY, i happened to figure out how to tie it.. it was like inspiration from dunno where. and i looked really good. as in.. relative to the rest of the cast, but i still wont play down the fact that i've got good looks anyway =) hahahahaaha. bhb rite? :D
i really like my costume. and i improvised it by myself. it was originally only that yellowish brown cloth. so i koped a dark brown cloth supposed 2 be a table cloth, then used it to tie around my waist. made it look better cos the colours were just nice. like matching. then underneath i'll probably wear a pair of RI PE shorts. oh. the shitty part was that seok whee doesnt want me to wear the white shirt underneath. it looked so freaking majestic and she was going. no.. cos in real life abbots dun wear things underneath.
that means tat i'll have to go topless. and i tried it once during rehearsals. so freaking embarrassing. the stupid cloth draped around me kept dropping off. exposing my ... U-NOE-WHAT. and the musicians were laughing away. lol. cant help it. was damn paiseh. and i couldnt remember my lines or my song cos half the time i was gripping on to the spastic bit of cloth covering my frront hoping it wouldnt drop offf. grrr.
the musicians are really talented. they are.. erm. lemme try to rememebr.
