Rock Climbing – SHOING!

➡ Wahha, today is the first day of our sports elective rock climbing program. Scaled the 3-4 storey flat rock wall as part of an introduction with a bit of sweat. But while doing the forward inclined rock wall... wah cannot sia, can't even go up halfway. It's my first time scaling a proper rock wall too...

Dinner at Annalakshmi

Eat for free? these are the words which came through my mind after dining at Annalakshmi this evening. Whats more, this is the place where mum always wanted to dine at for the last month (which in turn resulted in 3-4 unsuccessful Hillstreet visits over the weeks). Uniquely, this is unlike any other restaurant. Firstly as...

Dinner at Ban Seng

Was a Plaza Singapura to close a deal with a client on a school social networking site, headed to the Simlim area thereafter for lunch with my colleague Andy before dropping by Simlim square to shop for a speed ball & bluetooth module for my laptop. Andy wanted a CRT monitor for his friend who got a...

Computer Arrived! Day Driver

Got a call from 8 flags Computers around 5.30pm on thursday afternoon which I missed (was in the gym during that time after school). Recapping, dad loaned me the car for today just in case I needed to drive to the store to collect it (so as after he found out the "interesting-ness" of bus commuting...

Knowing the class better

It more than one week in class, & finally with updated news, our Mechanics Lecturer is actually our class tutor! Mr Goh Kim Seng is a contemporary stylish lecturer, who is well, not very much well-known in the looks department. But he sure is a good teacher and behaves really professionally as an educator, very unlike the...

Track Freshmen Meet

And there we have it the first week of school, all done with the CCA booths, scholarships applications & such. The scholarships are very hot this semester, with long queues & crowds for application submission in the SAA. Wish I can get it, (as I didn't last year). Hope my results can at least bring me somewhere...

School opens, New class

School started off rather smoothly, you definately can't miss the freshies around the campus, walking around with either a yanyard stuck round their necks all day, bulky new laptop bags (which you can even smell the new polyester bag smell meters away) or just spotting the very plain gong look™. Personally its time where people learn not...

School Reopens Monday

Well, school reopens tomorrow, Monday. You can just sense overall change in aura lately, like rushing to get last minute chores done & such, not to mention the sudden offset of school dismay & bitching you can get off your friends & classmate's personal messages in MSN. It's gonna be the end of semester for those in...

Not CoreDuo after all

With CoreDuo laptops slowly making it's way into the market, apparently some tech-savy consumers like me is fad up in waiting for such new computers to hit mainstream, whether its a new laptop for my sis or a new tablet for me. It just takes too long for any new processor release to come out, especially when you...

Chores, work… oh & pizza

Life is like a box of takeaway pizza, a single entity in a box of vastness fit for a regular pizza, just like the one I've today after lunch. You must be surprised at me eating pizza all of a sudden, well if it won't for dad & this company providing free pizza hut coupons for personal...

Swift Run on April Fool’s

Today was the last cross country event for the season, being the Swift athletics association Macritchie X-Country. The run saw the standard 4.8km boys trail route though the Macritchie forest & the midway last road stretch to the finish. Generally everybody in the team did good. All got their personal PBs for the route I believe. The...

Progress Package

Tomorrow will be the day the registrations for the Singapore Progress Package will be open. I would expect a heavy flow of traffic on the website the moment that happens, considering almost every Singaporean who sign up for it will get $800 (on average) credited to them by May this year - a definate welcome move to...
