2 March 2008

Took my CF Paper on Wed and it turned out to be quite bad... abit disappointed.. totally demoralised... and spoilt my 'study' mood on Thurs and FRi... so yah.. 2 days wasted by stoning and sleeping at home... haha.. luckily went for track training on tues night.. cos it won't make any different if i were to stay at home and revised on CF..

Wanted to Run today.. but it was raining... din do any long run this wk.. tmr die die must run.. provided it is not raining...

hmm.. i still have not open my Angbao $$... very lazy to count.. cos once i open it, i tend to spend it.. haha... so yah.. when i'm really broke then i will open it.. but think soon i gonna open it.. cos i'm running out of cash... skipped Sg and NUs Bia cos no $$ to sign up.. wanted to save $$ for bigger races.. haha... i found 1 angbao hiding at 1 cornor inside my cupboard.. when i opened it, it was actually last yr angbao which contains all the $2 notes... suddenly felt abit richer... so my advise is when u r rich, hide ur $$ somewhere in the drawer... then when u r short of cash, u can use it... hmm.. dun make any sense also... and yah transportation $$ is burning my pocket, wallet and ATM... a single day to sch and back home.. cost me $4... can't take it anymore.. i don't get any pocket $$ from my parents cos i'm 23 this yr and asking my parents for allowance just doesn't make sense to me.. haha.. but once in a while they will still give me some transportation allowance... if bo bian, i've to cycle to sch.. which is highly impossible.. haha.. think my tri bike is gone...

JI leader Mas Selamat is still at large... i wondering how is he doing now.. must be feeling sick and smelly cos of the rain.. haha... Surprising tt he managed to escape... anyway hope the relevant agency will let the public know exactly how did he mange to escape... guess all Singaporeans are dying to know the truth... hopefully he is still in Sg... haha..

Anyway today is 2 March 08.. but i've decided to put the entry date as 29 Feb.. cos it only occur once in every 4 yrs.. haha... sianz sianz sianz..... if i dun run, i'll feel moody!!! haha...

Anyway.. Last Sunday there was this artlcie on Sunday Times Life section talking abt "Sundown Marathon" they interviewed some runners who will be taking part.. and i think they mentioned there will be 175 "Crazy" runners attempting the 84km ultra-marathon.. i was like.. haha.. hey that's me.. i'm one of the 175 crazy runners.. yes..! dun call me crazy... running is my passion... trying to break another level of my limit..!! yupz! 95 days to go.. 31May 08.. i can't wait.. have started clocking abit of milage since cny...

Lunar New Year 2008

Went back to Gelang Patah on the 1st day of CNY.. It is very near 2nd link.. so we actually took abt 1hr and reached there arn 12noon++.. Once there... wahz!! the house was crowded... my cousins bring along their children.. so u can imagine... was stoning over there initially.. cos there was nth much for me to do... sat on the sofa and watched TV... b4 lunch we "Lao Yu-Sheng" including the kids.. wow there were like 30++ people... haha... received quite a no. of angbao cos some of my cousins got married recently.. but felt kinda "paiseh" to receive from them.. dunno why...not all my cousins were present... if not i actually should have a couple more angbao in my pocket... =X After that played Dai-dee with my cousins... each card Rm10cent.. In the end i lost Rm30Cents.. haha... cos our skills were quite evenly on par... after tt my 10 yr old cousin and nephew ask me to join them for black-jack... erm... they were so cute... all of them not older than 12yrs.. i dunno how to describe... hmm.. i played only a few games.. cos they seem to have their own rules... wahahaha.. in the end kena cheated arn RM$1.20 by them... =D

Arn evening, we had dinner... Hmm.. i always enjoyed eating their Chicken... dunno why.. the kampong Chicken seem to taste better than those frozen chicken we ate in Singapore... (actually it's a fact tt Kampong Chicken taste better) after tt i was standing outside the house.. thinking back those times the way i celebrated cny when i was young... i used to play firecrackers and stuff... my uncle who passed away when i was in sec 3 i think, used to pamper us with all these stuff... i still remembered how i placed the firecracker into a glass bottle and lighted it with a matchstick like a pro.. wahaha... and within secs, it shoot up right into the sky... and wow... it was like a mini firework display cos every other neighbour arn you were playing too... i really missed those times... for safety reasons, the johor authority had banned it a few yrs back... haiz!~ how i wish..... i can play with those stuff again... if i'm not wrong i think still can play but have to do it illegally...oOpZz... =)

:: To the left of my AhMa's house ::

:: The Interior ::

:: From the outside (took it last yr) ::

:: My Dad's Primary School ::

On the 2nd day... went to my grandmother house... go there watched tv.. then came back home... haha... cos beside visiting where else can we go?... Again.. we "lao Yu-Sheng".. this time with relatives from my mother side... i ate "Yu-sheng" for 3 days in a row.. Cny eve with my family, 1st day with Malaysian relatives and today.. yah... Don't know why i beginning to like "Yu-Sheng"... hmMmm.!~

:: Yu Sheng ::

oh Yah!!.. i suddenly feel like going ice-skating.. actually not suddenly.. i've been asking my friends since last yr.. but response not really gd.. anyone interested....? i'm not a pro.. but i just enjoy it... including the falling.. hahaa....

新年快乐！！ 万事如意。。！！

It's CNY..!! 新年快乐！！ 恭喜发财！！what else? ermm.. 红包一个来? 哈哈！！

Alright..!~ just finished helping my mum preparing the red packets for my Malaysian Relatives.. yeah tmr or rather later i'm gonna see them... but at the same time think i'll be stoning over there... my cousins and i used to play games and running arn in my ah-ma house but now we have already grown up.. ya.. so my nephews and nieces.. (my cousins' children) will be the ones tt spice up the atmosphere in the house... haha.. Anyway.. i find CNY is getting boring.. even the angbao don't seem to be attractive anymore... if i have a choice, i don't mind staying at home... To me it is just like any other public holidays... then again, it's gd to see them once in awhile as i don't get to see them tt often.. oh well.. contradicting hur..>?!

Ytd went swimming with khai yau.. the whole street was kinda quiet.. coffeshop closed.. shopping mall "half-awake"... yah...!!~ i wondering what the indians, malays and others will be doing during these two days.. hmm..!~~

On tues, i read the new paper which had a report on some of the taiwanese celebrities mocking at Singaporean English.. Saying on National TV tt Singaporean speak English in a "weird" manner... i was like wth.. can the majority of the taiwanese speak better english than us? i doubt so.. yah? So i went to youtube and searched for that "mocking" segment.. yah.. it was damn bloody irritating... i couldn't stand it..!!! if people doesn't speak like the way u do, that doesn't mean their english is weird.. i mean you don't say tt on national tv right?
click on the links below...

That particular "Mocking" segment

The whole episode (there are 5 parts)

The NewPaper article

There was this part when tt botak guy said that Singaporean pronounce "Thanks" as "Dance"... erm... i mean these 2 words are totally different.. he himself admitted tt his english standard isn't good.. and if u watch the whole show, he can't even understand or speak simple english and yet he dares to make such comment.. omg..!~ i think a pri sch kid can speak better than him.. and yah.. Singaporeans don't pronounce "Sorry" like an "Ah Gua"!!

There was also a part where the other guy who was a tour guide said tt Singaporeans pronounce "Uncle" and "Aunties" as "Ankle" and "An-Ties".. wth... i've been in Singapore since i was born.. i have never heard anyone pronounces "Uncle" as "Ankle"...

There was also an English teacher on the show said that she doesn't understand what was one of the our immigration officer was saying when he asked her if she was "Pregnant"... i mean every countries has their own accent... and her arrogant way of correcting the way tt guy pronounced "Pregnant" really bloOdy piss me off...

Oh yah.. this is the blog of that pathetic English teacher haha.. Do read those comments when you are free.. pretty interesting.. http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/rubyatnews98/guestbook She did apologize in her blog... Anyway based on her writing on her blog, her English isn't that fantastic as what i would expect from an English teacher who dares to "mock" at other country way of speaking English... wahaha... btw my english also "half-pail" standard... definitly cannot be compared to that Taiwanese English teacher... but i'm sure that i can speak way better than those celebrities on that show..!! wahaha..!!!!

4 days to CNY..

Why is it raining?? Argh!!! Did not swim this week cos it was raining on Friday.. sUx..!! Anyway Tues had interval training (8 x 200m).. still focusing on my movement and striding.. Wed went to MJ for my own 8 sets of 400m interval training glad tt i'm able to hit all below 85secs.. saw LWJ, Vincent and kelvin at MJ..haha..they were running.. after we played soccer with some kids over there..lolz!

Wow.. glad tt i'm able to find something cheap for cny.. haha.. after tt walk arn the mall, wanted to eat KFC b4 coming back but had to settle for MAcDonald cos it was raining as KFC is located in another building.. anyway this yr i just get a long pant and shirt.. total less than $60.. dun really wanna spend too much.. cos clothes are more or less the same.. i think so.. haha.. also as i'm getting older, cny is just like any other public holiday to me.. nothing special..
