National Day Celebrations
AND my whole holiday was eaten up by this scholarship workshop thingy.. which was worth it.. Couldn't go out with friends or sleep at home :( so sad can..
And I just realised I don't sound like how I usually am in this blogpost.
And Leon is evil because he made me feel pathetic by reminding me how sad it is to not have bolsters in my house.
And i have been having stomach ache and lausai (lausai only once 10 min ago). this is horrible. and the stupid haze is killing me. and APPARENTLY my sensitive windpipe has just started to screw up again after sleeping for 10 years.
you know, i should really blog about current affairs and world politics. I'll do that from the next post onwards.
I'm so tired now and I need to sleep.
6.8.09
POK
"pok" ?! OMG why the hell was I called pok?
OMG.
That's not the point.
The haze is KILLING me omg. I'm dying REAL bad...
And there's national day celebrations in school tomorrow and if the haze gets really bad, i might wear a mask to shield myself from the haze. And if I'm not dead yet, at least I can look forward to my consultation with Mr Ixer :D Omg, I can't wait...
I went to the piano meeting and Sean was pissing me off as usual (you know i don't mean that MR INFORMATION) ahhahahaha but the attendance was upsetting :( Looks like even the J1s are worried about their exams..
Keep on running into Limin today. MIss Chia Yueh Chin, and Miss Ngerng too! haha Affinity!!!
I commented on the use of metaphors in economics during Mrs Yip's H1 lecture at V40 today. Her counter-argument was not very convincing but she was so nice to me!! Extra chocolate for teachers day for her :D haha
Anyway, I was making a list of the teachers I've worked with for the past 4 years who are still in the school and the list amounted to 40 teachers! OMG. I'm going to be bankrupt soon!! OR maybe I should be nice and personal and write them cards each.. !! I might be from WC but coming up with 40 original cards is no easy task.. see how bah..
I am so bored I feel like licking a sea urchin. -.-

Ann-marie, Dev and I are taking part in this video competition and we managed to get kimberly and yiling to act for us :D We have to totally win!! omg. ahha but it's quite a big competition because it's worldwide.. the cash prize is very attractive:D We will be filming tomorrow so all the best to us..
I really need to start getting my T3A approved omg.
And I'm so tired so tired so tired I need to sleep. Like REAL bad... And I'm MOODY that's not good. Trying my best to control haha And because of my cough, i'm not allowed to eat chicken, citrus fruits, chilli, cold drinks, fried stuff, oily stuffs, chips... ERM then what the hell am I supposed to eat in school. Rice, veg, fish and veg and pork and veg and dunno.. haix...

Cough cough.. RWAR
Hey...
OMG yesterday i opened the door and coughed at the same time. and SLAM. my mouth hits the door and my lip starts to bleed. turns out my braces dug itself into the meat of my lip...
I went to the toilet and saw a small piece of my lip dangling. I was like o.O so i pulled it out and more blood started flowing. I looked at the piece of lip in my hand and i knew i had 4 options:
1) Flush it down the toilet bowl
2) Rinse it down the sink
3) Eat it
4) Let my cat eat...
I nearly threw it into the toilet bowl when i imagined it resurfacing even after repeated flushing (abit like floating shit)... I couldn't bring myself to eat it or let my cat eat so i rinsed it down the sink instead. Next time when you drink NEWater, think of me :D
So, I went to school with a swollen lip and mood swings today. Thomas pissed me off today because he was gleeful at the fact that a teacher 'scolded' me on facebook. hhaha
And I think all my past readers have stopped reading this blog.. so it's a good time to continue. I know LEON and GARY you two.. YOU'RE READING MY BLOG NOW!! HAHA quick send me an sms to say "boo!" hahahaha
Oh.. and if you're wondering why i'm blogging again, it's because leon said my blog is 'interesting'.. wadeva that means.. anyway, it's good that i'm venting all my stress here rather than on my friends :D
anyway. I had the most horrible day today because i was coughing non-stop. haix...
I was bitching with Sanchit today over how some ugly people look good just because of their super vibrant personality and how some super good looking people look like crap because their personality sucks.
I'm tired and have no homework to do. I should really go sleep or something.. haix.. I'll write the script for a video competition I'm taking part with Ann-Marie and Dev first and then I'll write a short story for my new secret blog ahhaha I'll try to continue to update this one too.. hmm..
I'm TIRED. TIRED. TIRED!!!

Ethics of the Human Life
That's like what I plan to do for my independent study. Scary.
Anyway, I hate my new timetable because it makes me feel breathless.
I want a new pencil case.
I can't do International Trade.
I want to make lots of money when I grow up.
22.12.08
Monday
Lame people/objects aside, Christmas is coming soon and I see so many people rushing to buy "presents" that people don't even need. But I think Christmas is a good time/excuse for people to get together and enjoy each others' company.
Ah wadeva, i have to eat dinner now...

Oh...
I had the weirdest dream last night.
A friend of mine was sentenced to the gallows and I had the longest chat with him before he was sent in.
Though I didn't cry, I couldn't sleep the whole night, in awe of the total randomness of the dream and wondering why the hell I didn't feel sad.
Maybe it's the sub-conscious me telling the self-absorbed conscious me to get over lost relationships and move on.
Or maybe I'm just really bored and it's a sign that all my friends have died.
Or maybe, my friend did die. He hasn't talked to me in awhile, and I haven't seen him online yet today. Maybe he came to visit me just before he entered like heaven/hell.
I was thinking of calling him, but you know, it's weird. Imagine what the conversation will be like:
ME: Heya *****, how's life? Or are you dead already?
*****: What are you talking about?
ME: I had the weirdest dream last night, and you died!
*****: Oh, that's cool!
ME: Yah, I know.
*****: OK, bye.
ME: See you.
See! See! See how lame it can get!!! No way am I going to call him, I'll just wait for him to call me. I hope I can sleep tonight... :|
Erm, I'm sorry for insulting all my friends in the previous blog post, but what do you expect?
hmm, I apologised, but I still meant what I said. Some people better start organising little picnics before I go crazy and start dating my friends.
So for these few days (till end of December), I'll be stuck here in Toa Payoh, doing absolutely nothing, other than doing stuff for my KI and Maths.
I only have my pasta God to pray to, but He's useless, so why don't we just change the topic. He's irritating because he likes to see his subjects suffer. I should never have converted to Pastafarianism. Thanks to my religion, I now hate meatballs.
That's all for now. I think my sense of humour is coming back.
No half truths here, just lies.

Symptoms of BOREDOOM
I have been taking my granny to the dialysis center recently and what goes on there is really an eye-opener! I cried when I was walking to the MRT form her place yesterday because I couldn't speak her language (Cantonese) and I felt like I've failed as her grandson, especially when I used to be able to speak Cantonese.
SO many things have been going on for the past few days. My social life is a big mess thanks to me taking people for granted. At the same time, I'm reading this book "The Witch of Portobello" by Paulo Coelho. It speaks of love, passion and the journey of self-realisation. I have not finished the book yet, 50 odd pages to go, but I'm already feeling what that "witch" was feeling in that book. Coelho is irritatingly good at telling stories that can be read from any perspective. This stinks as he makes me commit affective fallacy which makes me emo.
WTH.
What makes you, evil reader, from coming back to my blog anyway? Why do you find pleasure in seeing your friend pour out his emotions on his supposedly secret blog?
Why?
Maybe because your friend never tells you anything about what he thinks. Maybe because you care about your friend. Maybe because you have nothing better to do.
Well. Maybe your friend wants to tell you, but he has no guts to tell the world anything about himself.
Even here I speak half truths.

I LOVE BOLSTER.
I LOVE BOLSTER.
That's all I'm feeling now.
27.11.08
I woke up late
I woke up late today because I needed to recharge from yesterday.
I dreamt about many things but I can't really remember what I dreamt about.
So... yah...
Went to school for piano coaching. Then to Jonathan's house for piano 'outing'. Quite fun lah, played with the wii thing and there was slight cam-whoring.
Slightly more relaxed day. And great. I have nothing to do tomorrow.
26.11.08
Party!!
Whee... The party was fun, met many people though. Weird.
And there was this guy dancing like a duck. Weird.
And we spent the whole night out in the middle of nowhere. Weird.
And I had a crazy day. I reached home at 7 + am. I prepared for WC meeting, left house at 930am. Went to PCS to submit the secondary school form for my brother then headed to school for meeting with Mr Wong and EXCO at 10+am. Had meeting with CCA at1pm to 230pm. Met Mr Wong again with Huangyi and he really guided us like what we should look out for during research. Then I rushed home to clean up before rushing over to tampines for piano lesson then rushing to shaw house for movie with Sanchit, Ryan, Thomas, then rushing to TAKA to meet my mum and bro for shopping.
And I didn't sleep the day before.
Well.. Something damn sweet happened to me today in school. My hair was messy and someone's fingers were there to comb it. I was lonely and someone was there to give me that hug I needed. That someone is so darn sweet. That someone made my day.
That someone is not evil.
I feel so happy thinking about that someone. yay.
25.11.08
Patience. Patience. Patience.
Patience - a quality I regret having.
I have a tendency to brag about my high tolerance level. Well, I deserve the bragging rights since I have waited for people who came late. I waited 5 hours. I also await the revival of me and my ex best friend's friendship, something I only see happening in my dreams.
Then again, that dream of him talking to me (after the 3-year cold war) was so weird and random, as if it was trying to warn me of something. Maybe it's an omen, or a reflection of my current social interactions.
Patience. I have that. I'm proud of myself today, spending one and half hours in total waiting for people to arrive. This does not necessarily mean that they were late, it's just that I was early.
Looks like the chances of attending the party tomorrow (tuesday) has been blown my my freakin huge lips. What am I supposed to do now?
Aplogise?
Do something?
Or just wait. Like I have always been doing.
I think kanglong is coming back tmr morning. Can't wait for him to be back. Pok fake wanted to go fetch him. I feel like going too, but what is it going to be like. Ok. He walks towards the conveyer belt and waits for his bags. I stare at him. He notices me. He comes out says "eh? you're here are?", then moves over to his parents and disappears.
That's why I'm not going to receive Kanglong from the airport.
Well, that was pure speculation, but I guess it's valid. I'm not his best friend/ boy friend/ brother/ god brother/ sworn brother/ uncle or anything wad... just a good friend i guess. BUT if he bought me stuff, like presents.. hehe, i might consider going, but he already told me that there won't be anything to buy there...
Ohohohoh, Sarah, HY and I met today to discuss 2009. Great meeting.
While waiting for them to arrive (I was early), I came across a few people. I met Nasri, and he lost alot of weight! OMG Now's he's hunky and girls will definitely go gaga over him. I "saw" Mark, IP senior with some random people, I didn't bother to say hi. I met Artons, my cousin, just finished his A's. I met Yvonne too, apparently she's very free, so I invited her to Glossolalia '09.
It's closing in to 3am and I still have nothing better to do. This sucks. Why did I allow myself to get bored during this holidays? I have no idea what am I going to do tmr afternoon. Supposed to go shopping and movie but now that my attendance to the party is being challenged, I have no idea what's going to happen.
I will not pray for any higher being to give me guidance. I don't beg.
I just want tomorrow to be eventful.
And to think I starved myself today so that I could take a taxi back tomorrow. I still have a crisp $50 bill in my wallet, and I refuse to spend it now.
this really annoys me because i'm patient and i can endure hunger.
I'm angry now. I shall write about 4 lines of lyrics for a score that has yet to exist:
There was pain in the tummy
But I didn't care about me...
There was pain in the tummy
This joke is on me...
I wonder how different people will sing it.
It's 3.05. Time to sleep. I love peanuts. I love all my friends. I love myself. I love my cats.
I would love a hug now. That's all I need now actually. Hugs are addictive. Dang.
23.11.08
It's 4 in the morning
it's 4 in the morning and I should really be sleeping. Guess I dun really want tomorrow to come again..
I'll be spending the entire day writing proposals i think.. AND i finally got a new charger for my laptop, so I can blog more now! yay
And i still have not much to do during the hols. thank the heavens, praise the gods, bless the spirits that ryan is back, someone to bug at 4am at nite! yay..
and i still think my new hair made me a tad cuter. ;p
I've noticed many couples walking around the streets these few days, str8 ones, gay/les ones, normal buddies and I wonder when will i ever be simple and mature enough to handle that kind of thing. maybe it's instinct that wants me to BE like those people, but i simply am not like that right now.
then again, who needs a deep relationship (me..), i have my piano, and my shitty music i play that only i and a few can appreciate. NO>> not when i impromptu with proper chords and everything, but when I TOTALLY heck about everything and crap on piano.
i'm still working on how to crap beautifully. I just had a dream to have a solo concert featuring just me, playing crap on piano.
That will be my goal as far as it concerns music. I should really post an impromptu session up so whoever reading this crap and get a listen of it and tell me what they think..
and i can't really get over sarah pallin because i still have no clue why she was chosen as VP nom. YES the elections are OVER BUT STILL she bloody thinks she can run in 2012?! haahahah i'm not brooding over past stuff, i'm just way ahead of all you guys. ;p
i am so restless now, but i know i must sleep. nitey nites bloggy..
and to you reading this.
18.11.08
NOT SO FUN
I am dying because I have no idea what to do!!! I'm dead bored. Someone save me...
I spent the entire afternoon watching TV today. WTH I LOVE ELLEN. anyway.. Damn sian can..
No one to go out with. I almost feel like an unloved monster. And I bleached my hair, so I look so much cuter now, why won't people go out with me? WTH
lalalalalala what's this man? Where's the fun in my life? I drew some picture that day. It's nice.
It's the same picture. ARH
And we need to stop postponing our WC meetings! The deadline for the proposals are due really really soon!!
I want Kanglong, Ryan, Sanchit, Yutong BACK IN SINGAPORE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (erm, sanchit might still be in SG.. ooooooooooo)
And I want to be a journalist with The Straits Times or Today when I grow up. But I'll prefer to work for Today, I admire their advertisement with headline "Why pay to read half truths?"
I LOVE TODAY. PLEASE HIRE ME, YOU COULD HIRE ME AS A TEMP THIS HOLIDAYS! I CAN WRITE AND ADHERE TO LATE NIGHT DEADLINES! :D HIRE ME!!!!
I could write reviews of movies/food/plays/musicals.
That's pretty much.
lalala i'm still bored.
14.11.08
Bye Ryan.
Ryan is going to Africa!! YAY! Good for him.
Now I'll be bored and have nothing to look forward to in Singapore... not!
I'll still miss him. (Except for the disturbing fact I found out about him that day)
Anyway, Sarah and I went to check out prices of random things at Art Friend @ Ngee Ann City today. All I can say is that Glosso09' will be the largest budget problem we'll ever have. It'll be the most up-scale and glam one too!
We also tried to look for books on hairstyles to help our dear friend POK but we couldn't find any.
AND I'm going to dye my hair ASH GREY(bleached) really really soon, with a new hairstyle too. I'm gonna consult my hairstylist tomorrow and we'll see what he says. I'm definitely getting a haircut tomorrow but when i colour it is a totally different issue.
I'm also going to paint a picture! It'll probably be acrylic on canvas, 18X36 inch, landscape. Some pyramid thing on left centre, sun setting on right, crescent moon top left. Sky fades from dark purple to orange, interference of glowing orange/yellow pyramid and shining deep orange-red sun. This time, I'll invert all the shadow and light on the ground into light and shadow. I'll do my first sketch really soon.
And DANG I forgot to plan this Saturday's Writers' Connect meeting. I shall go do it now!
lalala

Heck
But I'm quite sad my mum don't let me go:( boohoo..
There was a reason why I wanted to spend all my time working last year, it was because I didn't really enjoy staying at home. This year i gave up on the same job with the crazy working hours (ideal for avoiding family interaction) to instead look for a harder to find normal job. I haven't got a job.
My mum complained that I spend more of her money by working because she has to give me money to eat out. It's just eating, on normal school days I eat as well. And I asked her what makes her so sure that I'd spend less money if I don't work. I still have to go out with friends right?
She said something like I should have fun during the holidays blah blah blah.
RIGHT... I'm having SO MUCH FUNFUNFUNFUNFUN with my holidays now.
WTH I WANT MY JOB NOWNOWNOW
And I need money to dye my hair ash grey. I'm gonna try to get some now. Hold on.
OK done.
I'm gonna have new hair. ;p
Avenue "P & Q"
Just had an argument with my mum. Well, at least that's what I think my father was saying:
"If you really care about your mother's feelings, I think.................. You should continuing arguing with her." (With loads of sarcasm)
Well, he meant it as an fight kind of argument. But I saw my dialogue with my mother as a context-based premise-conclusion debate kind of argument.
Apparently, according to my mum, who I quote is to be at the receiving end, I was coming across as aggressive and pushy.
This was the logical structure of our arguments:
GW-Premise 1 - I want to watch Avenue Q
-Premise 2 - Avenue Q costs 52.50
- Premise 3 - I value Avenue Q to be worth at least as much as the price (weighing in opportunity costs against aesthetic value)
- Premise 4 - I have no money
-Premise 5 - Mother has money
GW's Conclusion - I need money from Mother to watch this show.
Mother - Premise 1 - Thinks Avenue Q is overpriced (Values it less than $52.50)
-Premise 2 - Thinks Avenue Q is not align with our family's value systems (i think she might have mistaken one of the themes of mockery of the lack of value systems in modern society featured in the play as a literal theme)
- Premise 3 - Wants to teach GW the value of money
Mother's Conclusion - Declines GW's premise 3 and thereby declining GW's Conclusion.
Context - Mother is the Mother and assumes moral responsibility over the child. Mother has the money. GW is not even legal, at 17 years of age.
Comments by Mother:
GW is too aggressive/pushy. GW should learn to be more diplomatic if he wants to convince people. People in a team would not want to work with GW. Mother doesn't like it that GW :
1) Has his own opinion that somehow is in opposition with his parent's nearly all the time
2) Never fails to voice his opinion
3) Likes to argue his way through
4) Wants to get his way, always
Comments by Father:
It is their duty to bring up their children in the 'direction' they feel is 'right'. GW should not argue with his Mother. Parent's job to impart their values into the children. GW should respect that.
I quote Father:
"You always have your opinion." (-.-)
Comments by GW:
Said out loud: Isn't it good that I'm not a push over? Isn't it good that I am willing to stand for something? Isn't it good that I know what I want and I'm willing to fight for it? Isn't it good that I want to ensure that what I want gets done?
In my head: What makes you think your values works best for me? Why aren't you contributing anything to heighten's your son's strengths like playwriting, the aesthetics, philosophy, mathematics but rather, making emphasise more on economics which he has lost interest in, partly because he doesn't get a thing? Your values in engineering and respecting the elders (in a very strict sense, like totally conforming to what they say) will not aid me at all.
More comments by Mother:
You have to learn how to more diplomatic, if not people will not enjoy working with you in a team, even if you are always right. Don't waste your smart brain.
In my head:
Ok, i'm only like that when I talk to you. I usually don't have this problem with friends because we have more or less the same value judgements, but I see this as a potential personal screw up when I grow up in the future when I am made to work with people with different value judgements.
I guess I have to mind my Ps and Qs.
anyway, of course my mom won the debate, by default, because she's the one responsible over me, well, because she has the money, not me. She says I can do what I want everyday.
I actually anticipated this outcome before I asked her, so I came up with a Plan B. Well, I thought on the basis that I have NEVER watched a SINGLE professional theatrical production this year, she might sympathise with me and let me watch this ONCE. I mean, she has sponsored hundreds of dollars of monies to me before, even let me watch Magic Fundoshi, featuring a naked appearance by Emma Yong. (With two stickers covering her nipples, and a leaf for the crotch if i'm not wrong.) Well, guess I was too rude to her.
So instead, for plan B, I'll be going to Art Friend to check out prices of stuff tomorrow for Glossolalia 09' Candy with Sarah in the evening.
And I'll try to be more diplomatic. I think I have to mask myself once again for this. Sighs.
11.11.08
Sick
Oh man I'm sick today. Lausai throughout the morning. Dang. Super sorry to Sarah and Huangyi for calling off the meeting. Thanks to Keph and Sarah for being nice and calling me to talk to me. You guys kept me alive. (sobs sobs) *chuckles*
I'm feeling feverish now. Save me.. hahaha.
Phuket was sick too. That part of Thailand is really really poor, other than the tourist parts. There was hardly anything to buy dang. Bought some bracelet things for WC exco. It rained half the time too, so it was not that fun.
And I still can't find a holiday job. Dang dang.
I bought some bracelet things for some other random people as well. :P
I love Guowei.
7.11.08
Footstep
Grains of sand swirl
Around that pretty girl
Casting her shape;
What's beneath that cape?
Tender voice above those
Footsteps coming close
ARH I"M STUCK!!!! i dunno how to continue, i also dunno what i writing. this is so forced, i'll continue this poem in Phuket. sorry to the person i'm writing this for. wth.
2.11.08
I need sleep
We all do. Dang.
I have successfully converted one of my friends to become asexual.
And, Ryan, I have nothing to blog about, other than the fact that I submitted some stupid thing to some stupid competition.
I have the real OP tomorrow. Disgusting.
I'll start preparing for tmr at 10pm. Then i'll go sleep.
I'm tired anyway.
tired of everyone.
i want to love someone. but why can't i? stupid guowei

Firefly
Fireflies at midnight
Shimmer over water
But once the Sun comes to light
We'll miss it all together
The moon flies by the sky
Reflection in the water
The panda gazes out with sigh
Why does time fly faster?

VIP Symposium 2008, This Saturday
Wow. I am going to be one of the presentation room's coordinator. There are no rehearsals. I'm supposed to make sure it starts on time, ends on time, entertain questions and introduce ALL the projects before they begin. There are no rehearsals.
This is freaking scary, but I think it's going to be quite fun.
On a lighter note, fuck, there is no lighter note.
Why the hell does my PW group want to shoot a video. None of them knows how to video edit, well, except me again. I bet none of them knows the effort needed to produce a GOOD video. Rawr. And I need to study for Chinese.
How about a higher note? NO. There's no such thing either.
I have no idea what i'm going to do during the holidays. I didn't sign up for ogl, pulled out from applying for emcee. I better find a job soon. And i have no idea what i'm doing with my social circles. I'm screwing everything up.
Now I just feel like staying at home and playing pokemon. sighs.

Pok Corn
Whee.. I like watching movies, and I watched Eagle Eye just a few hours ago... But I thought that the action scenes were just one big mess.
Sarah and I have so much fun poking fun at pok... I hope pok doesnt mind... haha
I actually spent my entire night doing the stupid WR thing so I don't really have any nice stories to share with you today.
OH Mr Wong wants WC to come up with the budget plan thing again!! and this time, I AM SO GOING TO MAKE SURE THE FRICTION THING IS GOING TO WORK OUT OMG CAN!
so HuangYi, Sarah, Tas! We have to work hard together man!!! haha
It's 0228 in the morning and I am ranting. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

His Holy Noodleness
I'm a proud Pastafarian. (www.venganza.org)
Today I felt so down and sick and there was no noodlely appendage to pick me up. It was instead prodding at me.
Prod. Prod. Prod.
I sucked in heaps of air which each blow that came, in hopes of my lungs exploding so that I could join Him up there, somewhere.
My lungs just expanded, and now I can breathe more than ever.
We got back our WR 2nd draft today and it is in one big mess.
I was emotionally hurt several times today by three people. These three people knew that they hurt me. I could see it in their eyes.
I hurt someone today. He was sitting on my left.
Someone was nice to me today. She lent me chinese references.
But I am selfish today and only want myself to be happy. I honestly felt like dying, not by suicide but by fatigue. Every moment alive was aching.
I hope I die in my sleep one day. No pain.
So, from now on, no more self-boasting 'art works' or estimation of results, just pure thanks and appreciation to those who have been nice to me; apologies to those I let down and curses to those who have let me down.
And I long for that mystery person whom I pretend is my bolster every night before I drift into dreamland.

Open School
open house yesterday was a pain.
it was well organised. too well organised. it was SO boring.. and there was hardly anything going on in the concourse...
Yahyah.. WC was busy giving out free T shirts and poems...
And Ryan kept on coming over to check the our booth out... so sweet. *kick him*
and it's Ryan that asked me to blog about open house. VERY GOOD MEH? pls loh, last year's was better....
i rather blog about how fucked up human beings are...
during the WC outing we had yesterday, Tas and I sort of deduced that everyone has their straight, bi, gay and asexual side of themselves. Your primary side is the side you are most of the time.
I'm primarily asexual. Everybody disgusts me.
Kanglong should know that after our nice chat at 1am last night about smelly people.
My tag board is dead. I still dunno who reads my blog...sigh sigh...
and i'm still in love with WC..
and a friend asked me about my love life just now. WHAT LOVE LIFE?!
1.10.08
I'm sad today.
I'm sad today. Or might I say, the day before since it's now past midnight.
1) No one is chatting with me over MSN.
2) I got dao-ed by someone 3 times today in school.
3) I heard my MY duet piano piece composed by Debussy being played in the piano room while I was at a meeting in the concourse. Looks like the piano people have found a replacement for me. It a wonder WHY NOBODY BOTHERED TO EVEN TELL ME THIS!
I have been practicing this freaking piece for so long till Ian gave it up and that Wanmei just had to disappear. WTF. WTF. ONE BLOODY YEAR of a 3-time piece. And now they just let someone else play it. I am SO insulted.
I hope Alicea is reading this because it's too late to call this Music Director. I am shocked that she(you) didn't even tell me.
I speculate that this piece will be played for open house. MAN
I'm not saying that I can play better than the new ppl who are playing it, who ever they are. It's just that didn't the people who did this up think about my feelings?
It wasn't easy exiting from Piano exco you know... Now this. I may seem petty, but couldn't they just chose another piece? Why this hurtful one?
I HAVE DARN SHARP EARS ALICEA, YOU KNOW THAT.
But I must say, they did play REALLY well... haha...
Then again, I can't really complain, I didn't deliver up to expectations for this piece, however much I loved it.
And if Mr Ku ever gets to read this, I would like to thank him for having high expectations on me, how ever much I don't deserve them. I got merit (127) for my grade 5 practical examination. That's a sucky grade. Please don't disappoint the entire ensemble by giving me false hope of becoming MD and false hope of playing Bennett. I know a can do it, but I can't do freaking both of them. I'm only classical trained 2 years plus.
Even I had so high expectations of myself. Look at me now...
I bet they're going to give me some obscure piece which I WILL WORK EXTREMELY HARD FOR AND PROVE EVERYBODY WRONG!!!! HHAHAHAH
In case they haven't realised, I work better with obscure pieces like twinkle twinkle...
That's for the ranting.. now the nicer part of my life, WRITERS CIRCLE!!!
I love Mr Wong and Miss Chia. I don't know whether I love Miss Loh or not because I havent really got to know her yet, so I can't comment on that.
They are such flexible teachers. Giving us guidelines, but letting us set the way we WANT to run our CCA.
These are the updates:
1) OPEN HOUSE: For our college's open house, we'll be writing FREE POEMS on the spot for soon-to-be freshmen! muhahahah
We are also going to show some of our classic archive stuff.
2) PLAY: We will be collaborating with Youth Writers' Connect, a subsidiary of Wordforward, on a play that will be put up somewhere between end of December and beginning of January.
3) OUTING: There should be an outing this Saturday after open house. It's for inspiration and discussion of the future of WC.
Next's weeks WC meeting will be the most important meeting we'll ever have.

Post Promo Fun
I am so relieved the exams are over! I can finally install that Adobe package thing I got for really really cheap in school that day and have fun all holidays creating my graphics and animations and web pages and what ever else those things can do.
And I can learn French on weekends. Yes my friends, I will be irritating you with a new accent and language. (I'll stay away from Serena Alwani when i'm in french mode though... I think she speaks it at home for fun...)
And I want to learn Esperanto too. But I'll see if I have the time. (Well, I did a social studies assignment on that language before and I got a surprisingly high grade.)
And I'm in the midst of developing my own language for my nation Paich in Nations (Facebook App.). It was only recently romanised.
These are my prediction for my grades plus minus one grade. For the majority of my readers who are from the US and UK (as seen in the world map thing), I'll give a breakdown of the grading system of the little junior college I'm studying at here in Singapore.
I'll rank them from highest to lowest. Values are in percentage of marks scored in the examinations. I'm currently in first year junior college and examinations are 97% based on the actual paper itself, and 3% based on periodic online tests for the science subjects. For economics, 20% is based on projects and class tests which I did not bad in.
A - 70 and above
B - 65 to 69
C - 60 to 64
D - 55 to 59
E - 45 to 54
S - 30 to 44
U - 29 and below
E is the passing grade. S is a sub-pass.
I take the following A level subjects:
Mathematics, Economics, Chemistry, Physics, Knowledge & Inquiry(KI). All are at H2 level. I am currently trying out UCLES Mathematics at H3 as well. The general paper grade is derived from my KI grade. (So if I score an A for KI, my GP grade would be an A too)
My school's minimum requirement for me to continue to pursue UCLES Mathematics at H3 is to score at least a BCDD and a pass in my GP grade.
This are my predictions for this year's promotional examination results for myself. (Remember to plus minus one grade)
KI - B
Economics - C
Chemistry - A
Mathematics - A
Physics - A
OK... I'm being really optimistic. But hey, I did study for the exam. (Well, with the exception of mathematics as I rather spend time revising for chemistry)
And I was so sick of the countless Arts faculty and non-physics people asking me " so how was physics?"
OF COURSE IT WAS FREAKING DIFFICULT! haha but I just said "it was okay", which doesnt really mean anything. If i had I choice, I wouldn't reply them. Obviously they have heard about the menace paper. It was especially obvious that one of them was trying to get a negative response from me when he/she (can't remember who) said that I was the first to no complain.
The thing is I can't be bothered. Even Dai Fei complained that there was not enough time to complete the paper. Perhaps the questions were too long? Maybe...
I admit it is difficult, but I didn't say that I couldn't do it. It was easy to me as I've done most of it before. There were exact replicas of questions ripped off from the practice worksheets given to the J2 batch via the online portal. I downloaded those worksheets and did and went though every single one of those questions. And oh my... Some questions that they ripped off didn't even have their numerical values altered. It was chicken feet for me. I advised so many people to download those worksheets but no one listened to me. Serves all of you right, especially YOU.
All my bragging here better be worth it.
Well, the main point is that you should always listen to the wise words of ME.
Oh, and I have no inspiration to write anything now. and the next Writers Connect (not my CCA, it's an external organisation thing) meeting is in seven and a half hours. RAWR. I guess I'll be writing with no inspiration again.
And Lubripalmasole ditched me for lunch tmr. Looks like I'll be eating alone.
2 Pieces of Art for today:
A river at the bottom of Mount Titlus. Edited of course.
Here's the original:
Bear in Bern.
I AM SO IN LOVE WITH MY ART...
It gets a little irritating how I so full of myself. But I don't care.

Econs milady
wah.. econs is finally OVER!!! haha I'll bathe and then sleep and then run and then dinner and then study until 1am for chem and that's all i'll study for chem..
L to all those who believed i studied the whole of chem last week! I DIDNT!!! HAHAHAHA

Blog readers and Writers' Circle
Hey!!
I have made a compilation of names whom I think read my blog.
Ryan, Alicea, Sarah, RuoYu, Kenny (Li), GuoJun...
Well, if you're not featured, be sure to msn me or something so I know, then maybe one day I'll write about you or something..
I did not study on this day at ALL (SUNDAY)... So I better be double efficient tomorrow. I'll study from 7 am to 1pm maths and 2 to 9 econs.
Be a good boy GuoWei. Get all As for Promos and you will be rewarded.
Oh, and you know, I actually had a good feeling about my KI exam. I'm looking at a min C, possible B, a lucky A. I'll cry if i get any lower.
Anyway, the main point of this blog post is to talk about my beloved WC exco members.
I read a post I posted quite sometime ago about choosing Huangyi to be vice-president over Sarah. (Well, I could choose as the votes were tied)
I wasn't thinking straight then and the reason for my choice (the family crap) was total bullshit. Still, I do not regret my choice as even though my reasons were wrong, the choice was still the correct one.
I've noticed that the secretary is more involved with the more administrative side of running the CCA and Sarah has been diligent in carrying out her duties. She even had to remind me about a CCA meeting we had to attend, a meeting that I had forgotten about.
Huangyi, I speculate, would be hopeless at administrative details and can be trusted more with social activities.
Tasmana is a creative genius.
All of the committee members, inclusive of me, are all equal in rank and we have to work as one hell of a team if we want to make WC a CCA worth being in.
Guowei (me) is totally hopeless at finishing what he sets out to do so he hopes that WC EXCO team can push each other on and treat our CCA with the respect it deserves.
WC will be having a few new surprises in the next year so watch out for us!
Anyway, I decided not to post up any pictures of people for the time being and I will instead entertain you readers with some art.
Ok.. this is a picture of the cute me.
This is the picture of the bear in Bern, Switzerland
Oh, and I'm a Pastafarian convert now.
FINALLY, I can rest my mind in a religion that I share views with.
It's cool when my God allows me to eat different forms of It. Look, It even allows me to call It "It". I'm even allowed to use "it", but I figure I should give It a little respect, he is my God after all. (I could so keep this up man.. haha)
And remember, Guowei is the most blasphemous friend you have. But you still love him because he's nice.
AND I want to play SPORE after this sickening promotional exams...
RAWR... and I'm looking for people to learn Esperanto with.. :D apparently there are only 6 people speaking it in Singapore.

The Syringe Baby - Me...
OMG! The penis that fathered me was a syringe.
Thank goodness the sperm was my father's.
Apparently, I was conceived by artificial insemination of semen by SYRINGE 17 years back. I was because my (still) over-active had a hostile womb, a womb too harsh for any sperm to survive the long arduous journey to meet the egg.
My mum and dad had tried the natural method countless before trying out the not so natural method. My mum was told to chart her body temperature and report directly to the gynaecologist the moment a spike in her body temperature occurs, indicating ovulation. She was to report with a container of my father's sperm, freshly milked in the morning.
The gynaecologist examined the sperm with delight and exclaimed that it's good. He then pushed up the syringe with the extremely long tube thing up through my mum till it was near the ovaries. And he begun the work of injecting sperm into my mother.
My mother claimed that he took half an hour to inject all the semen into her.
And it's so unfair that my two brothers have penises as fathers. And the status of "syringe baby" is not at all flattering, I'm not even a test-tube baby.
And what if the syringe was REUSED! OMG
I told some of my friends about my new found identity crisis and they were all like "ok...". THIS IS NOT OKAY! I don't feel human! I feel half human. But then again, I thank the person that invented the syringe as without the existence of that person, I wouldn't not be half alive.
I wasn't the fastest swimmer, maybe I was at the tip of the syringe? I don't know. This is just great. Now the whole world will know about me because I am going to foolishly post this up onto my unknown blog.
It is not as if I don't already have an identity crisis. It's so hard trying to be someone by being someone I don't want to be when I'm already someone else being another person I don't want to be. But there's still the other me who just wants to be alone. I think I'm schizophrenic but we are good friends and understand each other. We both have interests that are worlds apart, but understand each other so well and we create wonders when we work together. GuoWei is trying so hard to be diversified in his life to cater to both of us. We feel sorry for him but he knows he has to continue being that all-rounder and paradoxical person he is to keep both of us alive.
To prove that I'm an all-rounder, anyone can ask me what I know about a certain topic, I guarantee you that I'll know a little bit, but not enough.
anyway...
3 of us know (I, me and Guowei) that one day guowei will have to make a choice in his life and kill one of us.
This is so sad. I am sad not because I'm a syringe baby. I am sad because the syringe baby issue reminds me of my multiple personalities and how screwed up my so perfectly balanced brain is.
I am so freaking good in everything, but not good enough. Tell me what I am good in please!
Should I embrace all of us? Or should I kill them all but one?

GO AND STUDY OR DIE
If you'd had gave me the option, I would proceed on to my death, but I can't because I have some people to love.
Anyway.. spent the whole afternoon watching 9 episodes of Ugly Betty Season 2 on youtube. I LOVE youtube.
I love you too. Yes. YOU reading my blog.
Yup. Screwed up Physics SPA today. Let's hope I do ok for tmr and thursday! :D
No picture for you today. OR not yet. I'll see my mood later tonight.
13.9.08
Well
Ok. The happiest day so far in my 2008 life has just passed. I think it's because there were zero tutorials to go through today.
__________________________________________________
I did, however, run into a few irregularities today.
1) Chloe was whining at me asking to many questions during physics and for being my usual self at the canteen
Ans: I snapped backed at her to shut her up. Well, I didn't want to ruin my perfect day so I came up with a few unjustified reasons to assure myself nothing went wrong.
2) Hydropalms did not look for me today. Which made my day feel very empty. Now he wants me to look for him. Hehe...
Ans: Flirted with Hydropalms on MSN.
3) I brought my antique mp3 player to school today.
Ans: Did not take it out from my pocket in school. I did share some songs with pokpok on the way home.
4) Wrote half my Paich National anthem in Jugjug, The Paich's national language.
Ans: Obviously did not finish and struggling with my sentence structure and rhyming.
I like peanuts.
__________________________________________________
So. I was chatting extensively with a recent new friend and found that this friend is really nice. :D But none of you people reading my blog would know the identity of this mysterious friend Guowei made.
And you know what, all my great friends names (or has been great friends) names start with K,S,J ; Surnames: W,L.
There are exceptions like pokpok and Hydropalms.
This is extremely disturbing. Why am I analysing my friends' names.
My parents are currently on their 954th honeymoon at Bintan. I hope we don't get any more siblings. The condoms better work.
What more do you want to know from my pathetic life?

Brown husks stay in so firm

Drools with envy

Picture of the day:
This is a picture of Alicea Tan taking a picture of me.
It was taken back last year, when we were all still kids. I'm too lazy to write any long passages of praise for anyone anymore so from this picture onwards, you just have to let yourself enjoy the visual treats. I'll try to compose more thought provoking pictures next time.
__________________________________________________
Cya guys! Whoever reads my blog. I would be very grateful if you came back! :D You never know when I might just post up my suicide note here. I'm joking. But I think it would be really cool if someone did that because it would be like here forever. I miss an old friend that has passed on 2 years ago and I still see his long inactive friendster account there. I hope Facebook won't miss me should anything happen to me.

Diarrhoea for the Day
Well, I was at the following place studying this afternoon:
Well, one of the buildings...
(I was already at maximum zoom.)
Managed to finish and go through both mid-year and promotional examination papers of 2007 for chemistry.
Today's diet:
200g BahKwa
Zinger Burger
16oz 7up
Regular Coleslaw (KFC)
Venti Vanilla Cream (Starbucks)
Large Fries (Macdonald's)
2 gulps of Root Beer
one small serving of rice
50g white protein (chicken)
20g red protein (pork, non halal)
one bowl of carrot soup (with the carrots and random root vegetables)
10g of very expensive milk chocolate
10g of cheap white chocolate that tastes like wax
10g of moderately expensive milk chocolate
2 caramel chocolate sweets
5g of potato chips
And I do complain that I'm fat. I should compile what I put in my mouth everyday. I might lose some weight. HA.
Ok, to who ever out there who is reading this, here's the picture for the day.
I have one more actually.
This is Siew Lin, my classmate. HAHA No, we were not out on a date, we were in fact in Switzerland wandering around. I know what you're thinking, and we're not on our honeymoon. It was a School Trip.
Look at her looking back at me in the first picture! I remember calling out for her name and she actually fell for it.. But I don't remember her turning back to me ever again. This picture is the main reason why I said that she should keep long hair. Then she might look like this:
THIS PICTURE IS TAKEN FROM GETTYIMAGES AND IS INTENDED FOR NON-COMMERCIAL USE.
If you are her friend or her, please advise her on this.
The second picture of her is posed! I know, I know, it looks SO natural. But it's not. Please.. Siew Lin can't read a map for anyone's sake.We took that picture so that she could show her mother that she did not get lost in Switzerland.
Conclusion, Siew Lin should get new hair.
She lives here:
:D that's all my mum is chasing me to sleep.

Rant for today
I just came up with the best Aprils' Fool joke with my friend. And we're going to work on it all the way till that day. AND WE ARE SO SURE EVERYONE IS GOING TO BE FOOLED... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The joke is on ourselves so it's not THAT funny.
Its weird that I've been spelling weird as "wierd" for very long already. I had no idea that I had been spelling it wrongly until one of my teachers started to use this word a lot in her comments. HAHA
Yah, I know I haven't been blogging for a long time... But no one seems to miss me lei. haha
I just wrote a love story last week and submitted it for a love story competition. I think it's one of the best stories I've ever written. So if you want to read it, please contact me.
Haix... I fell down on wednesday as i was walking to the bus stop on the way home from my piano lesson. I was admiring the tiles on the roof of the shelter from the HDB block to the bus stop and walked into a drain. I have a nasty cut along my shin bone and the was a lot of blood. Guess what... I was wearing jeans too, and my jeans didn't tear. Imagine the amount of force on my shin required to make a HUGE cut and lots of blood. HAHA and nobody helped me up, partly because the place was deserted... rawr.
Um.. to increase my blogging frequency, i'm going to upload a picture each day and give a commentary on it. Just for laughs. If any of my friends appear, it was totally my intention and laugh at them for being such nice friends to me. haha.
Look at this beautiful picture! It was taken when YiLing still had her blue tag on and when she still was enthusiastic enough about KI to sit in front with Sanchit and I.
This was also the period when we weren't sure where Obama or Clinton would represent the Democrats. I would have supported Clinton. This was also around the time after Orientation 2. Yiling did a great job planning and executing the whole thing. It's a pity hardly anyone turned up. She has SO much experience from O1 in 2006, IPO in 2007, 01 in 2007, 01 in 2008. She was the one who planned IPO in 2007 (along side Jerald and me of course). She has so much experience. And she's friendly too, look at her hands! They's groping Sanchit's shoulder. And she's always ready to put on that smile! It's no secret that YiLing has her down moments, but I applaud her for being able to share her happiness and be courageous enough to show her soft side. Everyone HATES it when Yiling is sad.. This just shows how much people love her. : P
Sanchit. He hails from India and he's my regular gossip buddy!! House Comm runner. But he didn't make it. So WHAT?! He did his best!! And he's a perfect screamer. Horror film makers would pay him millions for a single scream. And he was one of the enthusiastic OGLs during O2! Took part in inter-house cheerleading. what more can i say. He is one of the most involved scholars in VJC. I am extremely proud of him because he's one of my bestest friends and i think he is very brave. He's not like the other Indian scholar that reject the scholarship. He dared to come SG to prove himself he can thrive in a foreign environment. He even dares to join Library Council. He's in maths society as well. And he's a near straight A student. What more can you ask for?
I feel like putting up more pictures, but i'll save them for the days to come. :D
Now people will have reason to come read my blog.
Sweaty hands! YES YOU! I know you're reading this. hahahahaha

G minor and E flat Major
The perfect melodies
Flawless harmonies
Complete symphonies
A full rhapsody
My eyes are missing
Gone with my heart's pumping
We weren't just joking
We were each other's liking
Now it's just stone
That skinned us to the bone
What balloons have you blown
What more you have with an ice-cream cone

My hopes were shattered

My dreams were battered
Still less than yours that mattered

My Love
Recently on a facebook app quiz thing, i scored a pathetic ZERO degrees for how much i can love someone. it said i tend to shut off all outgoing and incoming love so much that i'm incapable of giving or appreciating love.
maybe it's true. maybe i CANNOT love. maybe i CANNOT BE loved.
i wonder what's in for my loveless life. or will you, my virtual friend, turn that all around?
you're almost too good to be true
My Virtual Mate
We have not met nor have we made out yet
But we have already become each other's pet
Our meeting will come soon I hope
Then maybe after that we'll elope
17.6.08
Virtual Love
Was it coincidence or fate,
Or are we just to mate?
If we end up on each other's plate,
Who will compensate?
You can't just wipe off a clean slate,
You're just hiding the hate.

My Crazy Life
YES i notice it too, i have no idea why i walk the way i do. i tried so many times to change it but it just doesn't work. too bad i turned out like this. i just have to live with it, so will my future partner.
i really have low expectations of my future wife. whoever you are, suprise me.
anyway, was talking to a friend today. she was like shocked that i "knew" what she was thinking or going through. UM it was quite obvious for me. you see, i'm a self proclaimed good observer. i notice every single detail of a person. I'm the ultimate KPO. haha i think because i have a broad range of emotional and social expeiences, considering the fact that i'm constantly mixing with people of ALL social classes in Singapore and at the same time, i get to understand so many different people.
I'm not boasting that i understand and can see through everyone. it's just that i can only see one part of one person at any one time and i can only make my inferences from there. the more i practice, the better i get.
you ahve NO IDEA how wide my social network is. it's freaking huge. it also explains why i'm so "fake", hello, when you get to my stage, you know so many people, you don't really, genuininely get close to anyone and you cannot trust anyone when it comes to emotional issues. I AM FAKE YES. REN AN HAPPY NOW?! So stop bitching about me because i can bitch about myself. YES i am a suck up too, but at least people like me.
omg... ju hua tai just played on 93.3... so nice...
anyway.. i really appreciate the times i shared with my friend/aquantiances/wadeva you want to call them.. in 06V11... like even though i'm quite a horrid person, most of them have the patience to entertain me.
special thanks go to jolyn, sanchit, debby, huangsui, daifei, elroy, jourdan, puen, alicea...
i like my current class now... like.. everyone is nice and accomodating.
i love my CCAS the most. especially WC, as huangyi put it, it's like family.
ok, if you read this, that line huangyi said was the MAIN factor why i chose her to be vice-pres, not that sarah cant do a better job, it's just that it was touching that she said that as she really felt for the CCA (however much she fights with me all the time)...
and i think i'm losing touch with poetry again haix.. and i cant wait for the 24hour playwriting competition.. i'm going to make it a WC thing. you know, we go there and OWN
i don't really think i should be involved in any relationship now (aw... did i just scare you away), i'm so messed up lah thanks.. i need some time to gather myself..
GW is going to change after midyears.. slowly..
anyway.. i heard voices in my head yesterday.. they were telling me what to do. and i actually followed. this is bad. i might have to see a doc is this continues..
okok
that's all for now tata
5.6.08
WC stuff
if we do not want our CCA to die.. haha
no lah.. WC shld be fine, we have a really talented set of writers this year, actually, it's just a more diverse set of talents
haha and i didn't blog about that fast and fresh competition we got 3rd in... I won't go all sour and say we got 2nd runner up or anything, but i think we did do a good job.
i remember telling ms chia a LONG time back that the finals would fall on my birthday. HAHAHA we hadnt even submitted the script. miss chia had the "pls lah, as if you'll get into the finals" face... but i knew she knew we could do it.
finals was a blast, it was sad that i couldnt stay back with the team for supper as i had to fly off to switzerland :( i miss the team haha
and now, i'm super emo because jolyn PS our kbox session tmr.. haix.. looks i'll be studying full time tmr, unless one of my good friends is willing to accompany me out tomorrow. we shall see...
no... we shan't. YOU want to go out with me right, good friend? give me a buzz on msn will you. I AM DESPERATE for you!! omg haha
arh.. i hated physics today, nearly hanged myself.. and i think something went wrong during preschool for me, i still mix up my g's and d's when i am writing. it even happens when i write..
i need to lose weight as well. all the swiss chocolate sure is taking up a whole lot of space...
i'm feel like getting one of those government forms and officially register me as an oil reserve or something.
i shld stop ranting.

Hi my readers!
Thank you for being smart enough to be the only 3 readers of this pathetic blog. It just goes to show how popular i am. ARH
3 people isn't bad.. you know.. easier to write what i write on the blog considering the fact that i know my audience.
anyway.. i'm screwed so don't bother celebrating my birthday on 23rd May. I've figured the only present that would make me genuinely happy on my birthday is a packet of gummys exceeding 200 grams. Please, suprise me.

I've not written a news article in AGES:
Price of Rubber Bands UP
by GuoWei Wu
Over the past decade, the price of rubber has been increasing at an average of .000033 cents per rubber band per year. This increase is a whopping 10 times heftier than the decade before. Analysts attribute this sharp rise in rise of price to raising taxes on plantation land imposed by rubber producing countries. The demand for takeaway foods such as white chicken breast rice dabao has also risen over the past decade, causing the demand for rubber bands to increase as well. (Rubber bands are a derived demand of chicken breast meat)
Miss Teo Jwee Koo, housewife aged 45, agreed to her naming but declined to comment on the issue.
The use of rubber bands adds mountainously to the air pollution as producing rubber bands require the use of machinery work which in turn emit pollutants into the atmosphere. Thus, some analysts propose, governments should impose a cap on the number of rubber bands one can use a day. Either that, or charge a tax each time a rubber band is used.
This idea has been ridiculed by the government as too much time and effort is needed to be put in to efficiently carry out the scheme. Environmentalists, on the other hand, disagree with the governments and accuses them of deliberately jeopardising the ecological future of the earth.
Rubber bands were invented by an Englishman in 1845.

Two torn between two sides.
Both of us, torn between two sides.
Who should go where?
I know you like both of us. But you know you can't like both of us at the same time.
I like you and another. But I cannot like both at once.
If we were really meant for each other, nothing of the above really does matter.
Either that, or we'd have to wait forever.

Genuine Happiness.
I was very happy yesterday and today. I think it's because I met you.
I've been observing you since the start of the year. Eyeing you every time I had the chance to. I bet you didn't notice me, but I'm sure I noticed you.
Now you know. Now you notice me.

Goosebumps
I'll make you have goosebumps all through april's fool night my dear.
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
:D you are so going to hate me hahaha
26.3.08
Why har?
I am SO tired. I need someone to hug. Like a guy to guy hug. Girls are hard to hug you know... I always worry about too much body contact. With guys it's ok. I sound like a total girl now so I should shut up.
24.3.08
I am SO sick.
I went into my parent's room today and threw myself on the bed. I said to my mum: Mum, I'm not feeling well.
MY mum was like OMGOSH! I think it's depression.
-.-
That helped..
But she was nice and she made me longan drink for me and made me feel better.
YAY just got my $100 paycheck from mum for the week.
23.3.08
My hate.
I hate people when they post post after post of song lyrics. What's the point of posting these lyrics on your blog when it's supposed to be about you. If you want to say something, SAY IT, do not rip off words from people without their permission. I have no idea what to do with people with no sense of poetic originality. Really.
Yes, if you are an offender, don't get offended. Thank goodness i don't allow people to leave comments or have a tag board.
Wait a minute. That just means I have no idea who hates me.
Who cares?
22.3.08
Big Mistake
I just made a big mistake which could cost me my social life in VJ. This is so wrong.
I hope he doesn't screw things up for me, literally.
ARH! Oh no... I don't know how to live on if it gets out of hand.
Damn it. Jolyn was right.
21.3.08
I Feel Like Shit Now
I'm so messed up right now. I'm not doing anything good for myself in life yet. That makes me angry and sad at the same time like when you want both chocolate and strawberries but you can only have one.
Why must I have two sides to my freaking life? What is it with the world? Or is it just me?
These two sides are starting to coincide and it's scary. This shouldn't happen even though Jolyn did warn me about it. I guess I have to take it in my stride when comes.
I want both chocolate and strawberries but I know I cant have them both. (Imagine a chocolate strawberry milkshake. Ew.)
I think the problem might be in my reluctance to come to terms with an reality. I want to sleep forever but live at the same time.
Should I follow my dream? Or should I follow yours Mr Lee? I have yet to decide.
Sigh. Why is my life so perfect and imperfect at the same time. And my love life is like a sin curve (it delves into the negative regions). WTH
I know I have work to do tomorrow. But I need a break. You know, to relax. If people have done their work, they shouldn't complain about me slacking off once in awhile.
I think we can forget about the MV girls. I can't get Yiling and I'm not in any mood to do one.
Because I feel like shit.
It's a LONG SEARCH
I'm still searching.
Search again tonight.
Adventure at Sentosa
A boring day... HAHA
I received a call at 915am from tentacool. I told her i wasnt going. Went back to sleep.
Ok.. Someone thought that a joke about $7 was a joke. It wasn't. Boy...
HAHA at Sentosa now. I stayed in the hotel room for... erm.. the whole afternoon. Chatted with yingjie (i think that's his name) on the phone for like ever too as my dad went out to take pictures.. hehe
ARH dunno whether to do music video or not.. cant get yiling now.. ARHARH omg how?
Anyway, my poetry performance yesterday got the attention of the poetry slam people. They asked me whether I want to perform at Zouk as a special item during the poetry slam thing they have next week. It's supposed to be a competition but they'll make mine a special item. Speak of out of the league. so I got permission from parents and even my teacher just in case.. So here's the poem that made me (i actually memorised it):
How To Hide Your Heart
by Wu GuoWei
Step 1: Find a box.
Step 2: Take out your heart.
Step 3: Using both hands, squeeze out excess blood.
Step 4: Immerse heart in boiling water for three seconds.
Step 5: Lace heart with table salt and chocolate dust. Touch up with artificial sweeteners. Add all toppings to taste.
Step 6: Fold heart in half.
Step 7: Wrap heart in a blue hankerchief.
Step 8: Place heart at the heart of the box.
Step 9: Slam the lid shut. Look at the box.
Step 10: Leave it with someone you trust; someone like your cat.
__________________________________________________
Ok.. The poem is much better when it's read out because i think it doesnt really look very good on paper.
The poem was inspired by a 2 hour msn chat with tintin! haha thanks tintin! YOU ROCK...
Ok.. I don't think I have any readers left anymore.. haha

WCamp
WTH. DUH! Writers' Circle is like a social thing. If we concentrated to much on writing itself, it would be too boring. I'm sure most of the writers already have the neccessary skills to write, it's just that they need opportunity. WC is supposed to give them this opportunity. About the comment about "friends", DUH it felt like a friends outing since every single person in WC is my personal friend. Which rocks in a way, but sucks when some of your friends don't know each other.
I like my job as pres of writers circle but sometimes i feel like i'm a playing music to cows or something. Mr Wong wanted writers circle to be bigger, more significant. I want it too. But i'm so sure both of us have no idea how to go about doing it. We are trying stuff but it's not really working.
ARH. but i won't give up....
WC must be big by the end of this year. real big.

A peek into my Life
sneaking around into people's secret blog like that. and telling me about it. I am typing this as we are chatting.
so.. great. you've found out about what i've been up to in and around vjc. good for you.
Anyway.. broke up with Julian, Colin and Fauzan today.
So it's left with Eevee and Machop. Cute.
Anyway, i'm NOT going to get full marks for econs test today. maybe 18. or 17. or 16... (so on and so forth)
I still have math assignment to do which i admit my procrastination to. I just have too much WC stuff to do. Friction got cancelled, but i told everyone that it was postponed (including mr wong when he asked me what to do).
I guess we might have it in mid may, and maybe do an interschool thing. (dream on guowei, but don't they say you'll have to start with a dream first, then make it come true.)
We're meeting with some "john" guy tmr. Hope he lets us flood the school.
I think I'm going to be down tomorrow. Or at least i'll act down to attract the attention of my classmates. maybe they'll be nice to me tmr.
Miss chia totally PMS today!!! hahaha.. I could barely hold back my laughter.
I'm quite sad i actually had to break up with my bfs... I thought that there might be some chance for us to be closer and stuff. maybe not. =.=
cynthia is still pissed with me, guess tampines 201 was sort of a one night stand after all. julian, don't cry.
ok.. i need to do maths already.

Today and Yesterday
So i shall talk abt yesterday.
So, the night before yesterday, some of us 08S42 people were chatting online, deciding on where to go for class outing the next day.
As usual, most people cannot make it.
So, the list of people who could come were bulbasaur, bellsprout, pichu, tentacool and magikarp. Just the 5 of us.
Some class outing.
We were supposed to meet at 1230 at cityhall mrt station. I woke up at 1145am. Great. I called siewlin and thank goodness she was still in tampines. I then received word from Izzudin that he and soffian will reach at 1pm. Chloe said she'll be late. So, the coincidences do add up. And i did save siewlin from loneliness.:D
Siewlin and I met Chloe at Marina's GV and bought tickets first. Izzu and Soff joined us later at Subway (non-halal). While we were all eating at 150pm, Thomas called me and said that he wanted to join us. The movie starts at 2pm. I told him the circumstance and he insisted that we demand for a refund for the tickets and we buy tickets for another movie.
Faced with this situation, I turned to the other pokemon for help. They continued to enjoy their food. I simply told Thomas that it was not possible and then he blamed me for being evil and he sulked about having to be alone for the next 4 hours. Too bad Thomas. We love you, but not enough yet.
So, forgetting that, 5 of us went to watch "the leap years", a Singapore production where there are horrible gaps in the plot and incidences of compressed time and irregular sun movements in the happenings of a day. The movie was heartwarming at some moments, and a put off in the rest.
We walked around the square, talking loads of cock. took some pictures with some wierd looking army men with green make up.
They moved over to Burger King to fill their little pokemon tummies and I met junhao and joseph at Long John Silvers (beside burger king) to watch the ntu symphonic band concert. Munched on Long John Silver's chicken and chips on the way to that space where ppl breakdance. we sat there and they taught me how to play an awesome card game where i owned them with 48 points. (their point range was in the teens).
We went over the VCH after that. I slept like don't know how many time during the concert. It was obvious they did not have enough practice. Lousy playing of lousy songs. 3 ant colonies can do better than what they did.
Went home after that, ditching them as they went for supper. My mum warned me that the JI terrorist was on the lose and he would hijak all MacDonald outlets in Singapore and kill every single one of the people in them.
I simply requested for someone to pick me up from PasirRis mrt. In the car, as i was devouring the hot fudge sundae, my dad asked me "How was the play?"
"..."
That was all that happened yesterday.
Now, I'm supposed to study for my econs test tomorrow. I'm drinking Prince of Wales tea. and still have not started on revision.
I better get full marks.
Current personal message: I love Julian (barnes) because I had to.
27.2.08
Switz Chox
But she'll be with Debby and Grace half the time. I guess I'll be better off making new friends. ARH
I'm half stone today. I didn't really want to talk to anyone today but I couldn't bear to not talk you know. And RuoYu is going to get sucker punched tomorrow.
Anyway.. Cynthia was as pissed off today as me. But she showed most of it.
I like peanuts.
I feel nervous about Friction. I hope it doesn't flop.
26.2.08
Hey!
I HATE YOU FOR BEING SO PERFECT FOR ME!
____________________________________
Ok.. i'm just super pissed off. Shun Him and Pu En totally pang saed me for the Switz trip. I think they ganged up to go against me or something. Best. Julian's rooming with some Jonathan. Fuck. I hope I don't get roomed with them. I'll murder myself for being left out.
So, I guess I'll take Julian's advice then, I'll make some new friends. I hope he won't get jealous. (He has no reason to)
On a lighter note, I have chinese and econs homework to do. And still I insist on blogging.
Speaking of MY blog, Julian said over lunch that he found my blog. I wonder which one he found. I hope he found the other thrashy one and not this one because I am bitching about him now.
Cynthia told me to fuck off after i told her that her pokemon identity was snorlax. I expected a snore.
I need to chill off man. I'm getting too into my classmates. Maybe it's time I sort off get my priorities right and focus on. well. my friends. which leaves me with nothing to do.
No, I'm not undermining my friends here. I just feel that I'm not worthy enough to be mr "friends'" friend. I feel like a burden on everyone now. This makes me feel stupid.
I'm still freaking pissed today because no one wanted to hug me. Not even my cat.
I want to scream till my stomach rolls over and sit.

A night at 201 and a day at a museum.
Met up with classmates and went to T3's peopye to eat...
Went home with cynthia and julian. initially wanted to go night cycling but decided to meet somewhere to talk cock...
So.. we met at tampines 201 area coffeeshop later at 10pm then we just sat there, ordered drinks and talked cock for like 2 hours then went home. cynthia and i left julian to walk home by himself.
Took the 1230 518 bus with cynthia and i alighted at loyang avenue, leaving cynthia on the bus with 5 old men.
TODAY...
Met with WC (Alicea, YeowBoon, TianYing) at tanah merah at 2pm. took bus 2 to changi museum and chapel. This outing was supposed to be for the whole of WC for glossolalia... but.. ahem..
ok..
the musuem was supposed to be there to like remember WW2 and honour all the ppl who served SG and stuff... we spent a good one and a half hours there before heading home.
alicea said that peexco might have to meet tomorrow for an urgent meeting but she just told me not too long ago over msn to do research instead of meeting.
so, i'm going to do research tmr morning.
Agreed to meet up with puen tmr before going to dimsum dollies... arh

haha
i'm not sure if people still read this blog.. so i guess that's all for now.
cya folks!
i like someone.

MC or emcee
I've given myself 5 months grace to filter out my blog readers so that only the honestly loyal readers can know all about my life that is relevant to you.
So... You now have an exclusive peek at my boring and insignificant life.
So, I just recently got the sms saying that I was selected to be emcee for orientation 2. This is a big suprise as I had no idea I could speak well. (I had always had the impression I couldn't). OR maybe it was inability they were looking for.
But hey, I was emcee for two major events before in my life. I was emcee for Singapore Youth Science Fair when I was 14 and emceed senior prom when I was 15. I slacked off last year.
So, it looks like I'll never be OGL for O2 ever! Good luck with you juniors.
Anyway, Yvonne and I met up at around 2 this afternoon to visit Earshot Cafe @ The Arts House
anticipating the regular meeting "Young Writers Connect" was supposed to have. (They supposedly have meetings every 3rd Sat of every month.) Apparently, the storeowner hadn't heard of the name before and chased us away because they were closed on a Saturday doing stock taking. (Earshot Cafe is also a bookstore by the way.)
Anyways, with nothing to do, we went to the shop named "The Shop" (still in The Arts House). We took a look at $90 cotton bags that looked like 5-year-old paintings. The shop also sold dirty semi-translucent brown tinged stones for $98 a pile (in the form of necklaces and bracelets).
We also visited the gallery "Dance Me Through The Dark", a photo exhibition featuring nude dance models and dance. It was fairly engaging. No. I wasn't giggling.
Yvonne and I then headed for the MRT where we took a train towards the east. We talked about Friction and Glossolalia and like which 2 EXCO members of Writers' Circle should take charge of which. We decided in the end that I and Rachna should take charge of Friction and she and TianYing take charge of Glossolalia. This is because Yvonne came up with Glossolalia's theme and I came up with Friction. Tianying's and Rachna's placements were to even out the sex:ratio. We wished eather good luck began eating stones
I alighted at Simei, leaving her alone on the train with 300 men.
I then called Debby to see if Jolyn and Debby already met for the meeting we were supposed to have at 2. Apparently they hadn't and I made my way to Debby's residence to await Thomas's and Jolyn's arrival. Jolyn arrived and Thomas was uncontactable. We started our discussion and ended without him as well.
The competition is about promoting global warming awareness in our school and come up with an accompanying website.
We had 3 ideas:
1) Flood the School.
2) Cut off all electricity in the School for one week.
3) Have a "Hold Your Fart Day".
4) Put up a live radio talk show with real audience with local celebrities to discuss how they play their part in reducing their contribution to global warming and featuring all of them in the website.
Though the first three choices were tempting, we more or less decided on the forth choice. Without Thomas's knowledge of course. I told him what happened just now over messenger without telling him we decided on option 4. He was very angry with option 2 but didn't seem to mind option 1. Thomas, I still have no idea who you are. HAHA
Anyway. I went to take a walk at East Point and Whitesands with Jolyn after the discussion. We sourced for DS accesories, games and earphones. We left without any purchases except for Macdonald's Ice-cream. I stained her arm and my $78.80 shirt with hot fudge. Yummy.
Just now at night, I smsed everyone in WC (even those that wanted to quit) to check their email urgently as I sent an important email. The email stated the following:
Hey Writers' Circle,
Cyril Wong is coming to VJC on the 25th of Monday February to give a Poetry Workshop. It will be held from 4pm to 630pm.
Cyril Wong is a Singaporean poet who is quite famous. Well, he's not a bad poet too.
The workshop costs $7. The school has already subsidised 30%. And I assure you that it IS WORTH IT! Though he is known for his "acid-tongue". (Don't tell him I said that.) A positive attitude to take is to remember that when he says something about your poetry, he is criticising your poetry, not you.
Writers' Circle has been given FIRST priority for this workshop so do not miss this chance.
If you are interested, drop your "poetry portfolio" into (teacher) Locker 50 by 18th February Monday before assembly. Your portfolio should include one to three original works of poetry. Your poetry will be sent to Cyril Wong directly so that he can prepare for the workshop. Please include your full name and class and state that you are from writers' circle to prevent administrative problems. Contact Guowei at 91707283 if you have problems with the deadline BEFORE THE DEADLINE.
Once again, do not miss this once in a lifetime opportunity.
Thanks!
GuoWei
-- end of email --
People better turn up.
That's roughly my day for today. Check back soon as I'm starting to blog again. I believe that my life is interesting so you'll have to read up about me if you want to hook up with me.
I'm still looking for a long term relationship thingy with someone suitable for me. But I'm not the kind that'll make the first move. So, if you know me and you like me, do something because I'm won't. (I'm a shy dude. It's a forgivable sin.)
