A moment spent alone doing something that I enjoyed

Hello, this will be my last blog post forever. I  do not want to carry on with this blog after this post as I find a real waste of time doing blog, unless it is for work, or will give you marks(like now). Anyway, let's go to the point, A moment spent alone doing something that I enjoyed. As you all know from my previous blog posts, my life is not one bit at all exciting. However, I do have times that I actually enjoyed mt life, but this kind of chance comes by VERY RARELY... For example, I have only went to the cinema four to five times, while some of you guys have went there countless of times. And the last time my family had a family outing was about one to three years back. And there are so many times because of one tuition, I missed many fun opportunities with my friends and family...


Well, but I must say that life has its ups and downs... One of life's pleasures that can be done alone is reading. Although I am not a fan of reading books and all, once I get hooked to a book, you will probably see me with that book most of the time until I have finished it... I usually think that reading a book is never fun or exciting, but one day, as I started reading my first adventure book(i was forced to read it, by the way), I actually wanted to read more, and more, and even more. On that week alone, I read about five books! Since then, I have been on a reading spree, but until the age of eleven. After eleven, my interest on books seemed to have faded, but occasionally, I would read one or two books.


Books and reading are one of the things that I took a moment to do alone, and I enjoyed it-when I was younger. What about now then? I ask myself. Well, now, playing the computer and reflecting on life and thinking when I would meet my primary school friends are things that I would fork out time to think about. Ocasionally, I would think about my Wushu moves and act them out when nobody is around just to refresh my memmory and make sure that I would not forget my routine. However, not much of my time are spent on all these things.

In whole, most of my life so far have been spent in grief and misery. This is my last blog post, and I wish all of you out there who are reading this a very happy new year.

Somehting that happened in school

Well... Many exciting things have occurred ever since I became a Victorian, but one of the most exciting and interesting things is my Wushu competition in Secondary one.


I remembered that during the competition, I had a slight fever around thirty eight degrees Celsius, but did not dare to tell my teacher in charge as if he knew about my condition, he might not let me participate in the competition, and that will affect the team. There is an event where the lower Secondary boys are supposed to compete in a group event performance(see 'Wushu Video 1' at the bottom of the page). So, if i did not participate, the whole team will definitely be affected, and I do not want them to suffer a loss because of me. So i endured and continued with the competition, and I am glad to announce that we clinched a bronze medal in that event!

In another event, the lower Secondary boys were also supposed to compete in a group event, but this time, with WEAPONS... The weapon that we used for our performance is so special and unique that no other school has ever used it before. Although our weapons were unique and different from the rest, we did not clinch any medal for that event(However, if you want to see our group weapon performance, see 'Wushu Video 2' at the bottom of the page. But i have to remind you guys that the weapon that we used is relatively hard to see in the video...)... 

I also clearly recalled that during one of the training for the group weapon event, I got myself injured in the finger, and I was bleeding profusely from my finger... Luckily, Mr. Siow was there, and he quickly bandaged my bloody finger skilfully. A few days later, my finger was as good as new! 

Soon, it was time for my individual event... I was very nervous, and as a result, stumbled at the last part of my routine(see 'Wushu Video 3)... However, i clinched a bronze medal for that event, and I am aiming to be the first this year!

A special moment that I enjoyed with my family

Hello, it's another blog from me. Again... Anyway, one special moment I enjoyed with my family was a few years back...

It was a hot afternoon, and my whole family, including my cousin, went to Wild Wild Wet during the school holidays. That was my very first time going to Wild Wild Wet, so i was pretty excited about it. Once we went into the pool, it was total chaos... For the adults... My cousin, and my brother, together with me, ran around the whole Wild Wild Wet, having our parents chasing after us. Occasionally, we would stop to let them catch up with us, but most of the time, they were chasing us like we were precious jewels worth millions of dollars running away from them.

There was one part in Wild Wild Wet where you needed to take floats and stuff to go on the ride. I think that was the part me and my family enjoyed the most. It was quite fun and interesting, and our parents could finally take a break from chasing us up and down! We enjoyed the ride so much that we decided to re-ride it a few times.

I wish that i could tell you guys about all the rides and stuff, but there were just to many rides, and before we got to try them all, it was time to go... I think its probably because we focused on that one ride for too long... Ha ha... 

Although I was upset about not trying out all the rides, overall, I still enjoyed myself.

A problem that I encountered and how I solved it

Hi guys, it's another blog entry from me, again... Anyway, one of the problems I faced at the start of the year that when I shifted from Bukit Panjang, to Fernwood Towers. When I shifted here, my brother needed to transfer school, as his former school was Bukit Panjang Primary School, and was too far away from our current location. So,he transferred to Temasek Primary School. On the first day of school when he came back, he started criticise Temasek Primary School. When my mum got back from work, things got worse. My brother started to wail and cry, stating how much he missed Bukit Panjang and how he did not like it here. My whole family tried to console him, but to no avail. He continued to cry and wail loudly.


Anyway, he went to school for the next few days, and after a week, the problem still persisted. Every time at night, my brother would cry and say how lousy Temasek Primary School was, and how Bukit Panjang Primary School was so much better. I think that it is because my father and I studied in Bukit Panjang Primary School, and my brother can feel some kind of  'connection' with the school, and now that he has moved to a different place, I think he needs sometime to settle and adapt to Temasek Primary School. 

By the way, until now, my brother has not found any CCA yet, and he his targeting soccer, although my family does not approve of it. Actually, I am not sure why my brother is so persistent about joining soccer. In soccer, the risk of getting injured is pretty high, especially for a weak P3 boy like him, and I heard from Kai Jie that Temasek's soccer team is not that good, so why join? Anyway, i think that my brother is a very stubborn child. He keeps insisting that we shift back to Bukit Panjang when over here, everything is going well. He also keeps insisting that he wants to join that soccer team although we have told him about the disadvantages...

Anyway, how me and my family solved this problem was that we pampered him and bought toys and stuff for him so that he would get angry or upset, and believe it or not, it actually worked! In fact, he is not complaining about Temasek Primary School, anymore, and he actually likes it a little! Looks like that little bit of pampering and toys paid off! At least I can see my brother being happy every day...

Something unusual that happened that day

Okay... Frankly, my life is boring... Nothing unusual happened in my life, except one weird Wednesday...


I was walking home one afternoon beside a HDB block's void deck, when i felt a drop of water dripped onto my head. I immediately faced the sky, but saw nothing weird or unusual... Just then, I caught a glimpse of a green shape at the corner of my eye. Then before I knew it, water came rushing down towards me, as quick as lighting, I quickly jumped out of the way, and rolled on my back. Luckily, I did not get drenched by the 'mysterious' soapy water that came crashing down towards the ground...


That was when I realised that the 'green' thing was a bucket, and the 'mysterious' soapy water was the water that some maid threw out of the window... By then, I was furious. Why would anyone want to throw soapy water out of the window??? I let out with everything I had, bombarding that maid with ugly words and words that I probably cannot tell you guys... The maid immediately apologised to me and said that was an accident. I talked back to her questioning her about how flinging water out of the window can be an accident.


I did not even wait for her answer and stormed away, fuming and cursing her under my breath...


After that day, when I passed HDB blocks, I would walk in the void deck, not beside it.

My thoughts about blogging

Hello everyone, this is my first time blogging... And I am not 1 bit excited AT ALL... I do not like blogging, as I think that it is a total waste of time...(I am wasting time now...) Anyway, another reason why I do not like blogging is that if anyone who has a blog accidentally post something personal on his or her blog, it is open to public and some stranger or stalker might go and do funny things... By then, that person could be in VERY, VERY BIG TROUBLE...


However, blogging also does good, because, it can actually relieve stress. When someone is stressed out, he or she can go into her blog, and vent whatever feelings he or she has on that blog. Whatever he or she feels or want to say, he or she can do it in her blog.


But, there is a danger to that. If someone is stressed out and publish a post to his or her blog, they might accidentally post something personal about themselves, as they are stressed and might be quite out of their minds...


Further more, if a small kid views an adult's blog, he or she might see the "Flowery Language" that adults use, and might be picking up bad words left and right...


Overall, I do not like blogging. This is my view of blogging, and i would like to apologise to those people out there who are crazy fanatics about blogging.
