holidays are over. i'm actually okay about it! not that i'm extremely thrilled to go to school, it just that it makes no difference to me. it'll just be much more fun in school. at least i hope so. it's New Year's eve. and i'm trying to compile my resolutions. i have thought about them and came up in a whole list, but i can't recall the entire list. but i know there's studying hard, going for training. that's all i can remember. i have a really poor memory.

there's 7 hours left of the year and i dont think i have done anything meaningful for the past year. it's obviously impossible o do anything in this last seven hours to make up for the last 8753. oh well.

got my guitar strings done. christmas is over. i spent 12 months waiting for the next christmas and it came and went with an anti-climatic ending. :(

did get many presents, which was the ultimate blow for this year's chirstmas. got one or two nice shirts, and that's about it for the "nice presents list" for me. i shan't brag about it, for i'm too tired and lazy.

school starts in 2 days' time. well, for me. stupid prefects' camp. i didn't go last year cause i went to Bangkok in a last minute notification. because of that i didn't get my prefect's badge. haha. stupid, i know. i don't know why i'm forcing myself to go this time, and not try to report sick to pon it. i sure hope it'll be fun. i heard mixed reviews about last year's. i don't know what this year will be like. different councillors, different way of handling things, different camp.

i've watched 'The Chronicles of Narnia: the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" and i must say it's pretty good. my parents, cousins and sister think otherwise. i liked it.

went lunch and bowling with the cousins. we only bowled one game. no fun. :(

i wonder if christmas is going to be boring next year.

yesterday i went for penitential service last night to confess my sins. i took about 5 seconds to confess all that i could think of. i guess i'm just a really good boy.

i woke up early today, had a bath, and walked out of the house on the way to training. within the first 100m from my house to the bus stop, i tried calling people, see whether they were going for training. none were. so i walked back home. :(

i cut myself with the guitar strings again. thank God my cousins broke the first string, i don't really use it.

Marcus said that i should go get coloured strings (to make me look cool). maybe i should. but i need my parents' funding.i can't bear to spend on guitar strings. it just isn't worth it. :P
i need a tuner too but they're not willing to pay for that. they said i can tune my guitar with the piano. :(

i didn't go for training today. cause i didn't find anyone who did. it wasn't a wasted morning, i learnt to play a song! okay it's just the beginning of the song but it's still nice!

i'm bored i feel like giving a special post but i've got no inspiration. :(

i'll probably have some later.

stupid cousins. they spoiled my guitar. not really but they fucking broke the string. now i can't play my songs properly and have to go change them myself. they didn't even apologise. my aunt did but she doesn't really care la. i don't like them, naughty little pricks.

i've cut my hair.

watched pride and prejudice yesterday with cousins Gen, Gillian and sister. we walked around a bit, i bought a shirt. before all that Gerry was there too. she had some church thingy so she left before our movie. after movie and minimal shopping we went home, while Gen went to meet her friends. my uncle came to fetch us home, saved me the fatigue to take a bus. that was about it yesterday, besides playing ps, watching tv and my guitar string break.

guitar lesson today was okay. i hate it when i turn up, not knowing what to play or how to play. it's quite embarrassing. but hey, i'm a beginner, am i not?

i think there's a gathering on 22nd. Ben and i roughly planned it out. but we haven't invited anyone yet. i guess that's my job since he's at camp right now.

Day 7: went to palace place where the king of don't-know-what sat his fat ass in.



the kids in the tour group! minus Gang Jie, don't know where he went.
*i found out that that's how his name is spelt.











after shopping and i think we went to some ginseng factory thing or the crystal shit. but after that, we got to this place called Lotte World. Lotte is some big organisation in South Korea. has many branches selling different stuff. anyway, we queued for the wrong stuff and wasted loads of time. we took only three rides, one being the Carousel. we wanted to take the 'scarier' rides but they were closed cause there was some lazer show. pretty fucked up. anyways, we still had fun.






queueing for the Camelot Carousel. or the other way round.
















Childish kid. :P










well, that was our last night and we were pretty shacked. had our last gathering in the hotel room the cousins slept in. we were mostly tired so we didn't do much. it was our last night in Korea.

Day 8: final day. went for breakfast, a late one. in camparison to the previous breakfasts we had. it was kinda like a brunch thingy. it was very late, like 11. anyway, took photos, in the bus and all. here they are.



brunch with Gerry, Gillian and cute little Joseph. he's nine.


















the tour guide with the tour kids! many people didn't
like him though, said he wasn't doing his job.













acting nigg- i mean african american.















the kids in the back of the tour bus. i like unglam.












Korea was fun, don't mind going back again.

Getting ready for skiing.















yeah, that's me! :)



















Gen, Happy 16th Birthday.















Day 5: no photos, lots of skiing and fun with the other kids on the tour with us. haha i don't mind going back to Korea with the same people!

Day 6: leaving the ski resort. i think it's called Pheonix Park or something. they didn't have towels! anyway, it was a whole lot of fun, wrestling Gerry to the ground and making gay, snow angels. haha.





last sight of the resort. :(










we were going to this theme park, Everland. at least i think that's what it's called. it's sorta like Korea's Disneyland.




a cable car ride in Everland, sitting with Gerry and Gill.

















haha some inverter-like ride. really fun. but my balls got deformed because of it. real nasty. took it twice. i'm still potent. i should be.
left to right: some Korean woman, empty seat, Gen, sister, Jonathan, Gerry, me, Gan Jie, 2 random korean women.










we conquered the ride! haha it wasn't that scary. it was fun and ball challenging.












then we headed to this hill, i don't know what for. it for some Korean Broadcasting Station shit or something like that.

i'm lazy again. laters.

back from cold Korea! it was really cold there but i did bring enough clothes. although i had headaches and numb toes and fingers, it was well worth it. it really is a good place for sight-seeing and basically, just having fun. i'm glad i went with my cousins and the new friends we made in the tour group was a big plus. it was eating Seoul Garden everyday. i'm not a fan of Korean food but it was okay.
there,
my hair was like crap, i didn't bother. actually, it's always that way. :S
i wore more layers of clothes than i ever have worn.
my socks were higher than i had ever desired to wear it. i had no choice!
i ate more pork in one day than i usually eat in two.
the sun sets at 6 plus, maybe earlier. they should have daylight savings.

okay i'm going to upload the pics. i'll try posting it in order(day 1-8).
do be careful, i'm not photogenic. AT ALL.

i'm counting day 1 as the night of departure. cause it is really counted as a day anyway.
day 1:

at the airport, waiting for departure. my sister, Gerry, Gen, Gillian, me.
















on the plane.

















Day 2: landed in Korea, taking a bus to the domestic terminal, taking a flight to Jeju island.





















landed in Jeju, went to some waterfall shit.





















at some volcanic place. the volcano is obviously already dead.






















Day 3:
some mountainous place. don't ask me exactly where, i don't take notice of the names of places.





















getting ready for dinner. don't ask me why i even wore than scarf.





















i'm getting lazy i'll upload the rest some other time. maybe later.

i've been reading my previous posts. i can't believe i was so childish! god. okay, in a year or two's time i'm probably going to read this and tell myself that i was childish. uh. you get the drift.

i'm flying off to Korea tomorrow. i'm havin doubts on whether i'm going to have fun there. probably not. i know quite a number of people who're going Korea. Marcus and Eduard are going there too. Marcus' going on the 12th, Eduard, the 14th.

shucks we joined a tour group for a holiday in Korea. i sure hope there aren't any kiasu aunties who constantly drag the group behind, aren't always punctual and ask too many stupid questions. i can just picture the whole situation. i'm actually fearing that.

i'm sad cause Manchester United lost to Benfica this morning. i wasted my time and sleep to watch the stupid match.

ugh, haven't blogged in quite a while, i've been very lazy lately.
i've fooled around on my guitar so much i actually cut myself with the strings. stupid metallic strings. now i can't play till it's healed.

what happened during now and my last blog post? nothing much really, just packed my stuff for the Korean trip. i'm not thrilled, neither am i dreading it, it's just another holiday for me. i don't think i want to go skinny dipping (if there is). i'll embarrass myself, showing all my fats. that's why i've been going for training for the past.. day? oh yeah, i just started today. but i'm feeling so tired, as if i've been training for so long. uh, i don't feel like going tomorrow.

put up the Christmas tree, took my parents, sister and i three hours. we put it up quite late, considering that we've been putting it up in early November for the previous years.

i bought new shoes! i wore them to training today, it's quite good for warming up. but i'm quite sad because Joash Wong has them too! i don't like it when others have the same stuff as i do. i'm selfish.

aye, read the news about the escape shit. i think i was the first to experience the technical difficulties. the other time i went with my primary school friends, we were going up the first ramp of the Alpha 8, but our kart slipped back down. i was kinda freaked. but i was pissed cause when they were technical difficulties at Disneyland, they gave us free stuff, compensation. but there wasn't any! it's Singapore's only theme park. i feel so pathetic being a Singaporean. that's exaggerating but really, they should've been more professional instead of saying sorry and smiling as we left the ride. and the equipment at escape are so old, not well mantained, it was only a matter of time when something gives way. it did of course, unlucky girl. i don't think i'll ever go to escape again. i think it'll be another fantasy island. i actually liked it. haa.

i don't know what has happened to the group of friends i had, it's like they all died. Nicholas left for Aussie. i don't know where the others are. if they don't care, i don't too.
