STUDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yuri yuri yuri yuri yuri.

Why am I posting that much these few days?

I haven touched my holiday homework.

Im spending each day on the net doing useless stuff.

I didnt even touch my guitar for the week.

Gosh what happened to me?

Badminton-ed on saturday, bball today. Aching everywhere.

Sg thread closed.

Badminton-ed with jereld, qiaoyan, matt, xinyu and phily at zhcc today. Guessed it gonna be a weekly affair liao. But its fun right! Anyone wanna join us, please drop me an sms!

Back at TAKA!

Saw april and junxin at taka sq today. Srsly, despite only working there for a month, i guess that one month is more enriching compared to the other attachments i went before. (yea i went taka to work not for the money, its for the experience.) Miss all of them! Miss taka sq in the morning as well. Miss spazzing around the area.

Too bad i cant work this holiday.

And i really hate ppl on the net who thinks they are so smart.

Singapore Academy of Law Junior College Programme

I actually managed to type out the full name of the programme.

Well, i didnt really regret joining this programme. At least now im quite sure law isnt for me. I may be too judgmental, too emotional. I cant be a successful lawyer. The conference was interesting though, we knew things that we can never see on TVs. And now we know TVs that potray lawyers are TOTALLY WRONG.

2 days of jobshadowing passed. What had happened?

1) i havent went for any court hearings yet.
2) Ppl there treated us as invisible.
3) I know how to make latte now.
4) I finished a yuri wallpaper in a few minutes at work.
5) Had an online flame war today.
6) Law documents are evil to me.
7) I cant say anything that i have read, since i signed the non-disclosure form.

Hey i didnt talk about my fellow interns. So there are another 4 girls...yes correct, another 4 girls. RJC, VJC, TJC, SRJC. So im the lonely boy there. And i felt damn outsided there can. One is an As student, one is a debater, one is a KI student, one is a sadistic one who enjoy reading the law cases and stayed back today to finish the law hearing's minutes. And who am i? The science student who failed all his sciences and dislike law, suxs at reading fast and analyzing law. Right...1 more week to go, before i go back to my holiday homework...

I missed working at taka. At least it was interesting. I simply love that place and the stuff i learnt there.

Mental note to myself: I should really start on my homework.

School starts on 10jan???????????????????????????

Anyway, i just felt extremely pissed off by some foreign dudes on soshified today who blasted singlish in front of us singaporeans. I got so bored i wrote a whole passage on singlish and posted on the sg ssf forums.

Stop here if u thk im dumb.

Hi guys, i know this is not related to SNSD, but i really felt the need to post this.

Yep, some of you may have known, a brief 'flame war' on the topic of 'Singlish' broke out at the sbox this afternoon. Well, i wont mention who was involved.

First of, im a true born Singaporean, who's born in Singapore, raised up in Singapore, went through the education system in Singapore. Yes, a true blood Singaporean.

Im sure many of you people here would be 'well-versed' in the unique language of Singlish. We all know, its something that is strictly unique to Singapore, oweing to our diverse culture and nationalities. The moment we were born, we were bombarded with so many different tongues and languages, most of us at least know more than english and our own mother tongue. Not to mention being the always inquisitive, or even 'kiasu-ness' mentality, we learnt even more languages, like japanese and korean.

Some of you, perhaps, may despise this tradition. Others, may enjoy it. But, as a Singaporean, i believe this is something that really differentiates us from others around the world. People may say, "oh, its imperfect english", "its crude and silly". But do they even understand how Singlish came to be?

Being a 17 year old boy, i may not know much history. But one thing for sure. Singlish is a product of our vast rich multi-racial culture.

To Singaporeans out there who despise Singlish, i have nothing to say, since we are not obliged to like it. You may feel ashamed by your fellow Singaporeans embracing it or anything else. But face it, no matter how 'crude and unsightly' you may think Singlish is, its your hometown's unique culture.

To foreigners out there who despise Singlish, we cant blame you. I guess you never understand Singapore's history. The huge influx of foreigners which continued to this very day. Your country may be pure, your language perfect, but is your language up to future 'language invasions'? Lets face it. British English was almost taken over by American English; More Malaysians and French are embracing English. (sorry if i got the facts wrong, im not a history student)

As i close this, let me tell you all. To those who knew me, i came from an elite school, and definitely not the typical Singaporean you know. But i know this: We are from Singapore, and no matter how ugly or crude you may think our rojak language is, as what our dear 'gahmen' had mentioned, please, PLEASE, at least try to protect our culture.

Im open to comments, if you wanna flame me or something. Or if you want to remove this post, im alright with it. I just wish to express what i felt after today's incident.

EDIT: I wanna emphasize...we Singaporeans are fully capable of speaking PERFECT ENGLISH AND OUR MOTHER TONGUE.

Worse memories.

2 days at the train, 2 days of freaking brain-wracking scenes.

1)
I was at the lrt, then i saw a mum running with her toddler son, trying to get into the train. The door was closing, so i logically assumed she gonna pull her son out. INSTEAD, she pushed him in n swerved inside. WELL, that was alright i supposed, before i realised she was dragging another little girl behind. If the commuters around had not hold on to the door, the girl would have been crushed. And they alighted at the next stop.

Seriously, what kind of parents are these?

2)
A mum was on the train with 2 young sons who were playing their nintendo DS. Then they were like, whining to their mum that they wan sit down. Then they just plopped onto the floor on the train and started playing. On that crowded train. Then the mum confiscated the younger son's nintendo, and he started whining, squirming, and even screaming to his mum. He tried to snatch from his brother, and they started throwing a tantrum like those we saw on comics n tv shows. SRSLY. Kids nowadays.

Ding!

Gah. i have been spending the 1st week of holidays constructively. Like, reading up and watching more snsd videos and news.

Seriously, there are some crazy fans out there in sg. Really crazy. Getting cranky over a few comments (not made by me), and spamming on the sg subforums(dont thk i spammed ba, i saw worse). Yea. Come on la. its called a forum for a reason. Haiz. i shld juz keep myself to be a simple fan, and not get myself embroiled into the turbulent seas of the mad fans who's going korea just to see the girls. at the mere age of 16. And spending money just to make a banner and wave it by urself.

Monday & Tuesday - CCA leader workshop. Some talks are really good, im quite impressed. The first day laser tag game was fun too. Second day me and joan left just before dragonboat. Not that i dun wan dragonboat. I even prepared the stuffs on the previous night. im just too tired. I went home and watched more snsd tv episodes. Trust me, i felt more energetic then. And yea, more SNEC stuff to do after the cca leader workshop. Me and joan not even cca leaders la. walao.

Wednesday - Guitar training. Well its was ok la. Nothing much happened. Me serene ivan liqin n shena went for lunch at curry wok. GOSSIPS FTW~~~

Thursday - Guitar training. Conductor came today, and was HORRIBLE. im supposed to practise a new fingering and she told me to practise more often. How am i supposed to tell her i wont be coming for trainings for 2 weeks? Lunch at coro with the same gang + zhengrui. WAS FUN TRUST ME. Following the gossips at golden rooster, we went out just to see the most epic floods ever seen in singapore. Tell u, its different from reading them on news compared to seeing it urself. It was NICE. i cant explain la, since my english suxs. But trust me, its a lifetime worth of experience.

Then there was one time, shena walked home after we exited coro. She walked back to us at the bus stop, telling us the road at curry wok there was flooded and she cant go home. so the 5 of us took turns to use shena's umbrella to walk there and see the flood!



Haha, check out my vids on youtube!

Friday - nth much happened too, sis went for prom that night, so i stayed up late to wait for her. DLed so much tv episodes last night! XD

Today - Last session =( quoted from qiaoyan's blog:

"Yep, just like the title says, today was the last tutoring session we had with the Primary 5 kids. Though only 7 kids came down and nobody knew that they had to bring their math paper, it was good to see them one last time xD. As for the tutors, only me, randy, jereld, xinyu and eunice came. According to randy, the others were too busy to come :/ The session was abit sian and we all sorta left randy in the clutches of the screaming, yelling, damn pai-si primary 5 kids lol

Hm.. but even though they were all so naughty and bad, when we asked them if they wanted to come back next year for more tutoring, almost all of them raised their hands. There's hope for them yet :) And I wouldn't mind coming back next year to teach them too, even though with A levels coming up."

Alright, must prepare for next week's attachment liao!
