htc touch dual.

yes. after much research. i realised htc touch dual can be enabled with wifi and maybe even gps. on par with cruise eh? and it's much nicer than cruise.

solution: check is the phone has the required antenna. if it does, there is some hacking to the phone to do. if not, buy a micro wifi SD card and it will work perfectly theorectically!

ps. sorry to disappoint u jac, but htc touch dual CAN have wifi. =P!

mac virus?

hey friends, check this out. it's really cool! haha

YES! FINALLY. the decision is made! she's joining me into the household of FREEDOM and NEW LIFE! =D

but. i still have the other side to settle. and another side to tell. and someone's not gonna be happy with me. sorry belle but im selfish, i have to fight for what i want. i hope u'll understand.

GOOD NIGHT PEOPLE! =D say hello to my single room AT LAST!

something good?

yesterday she told me that she got a scholarship. PSC - OMS, under MOE. very happy and proud of her. but she's not coming to london/imperial, instead she's going oxford :)

sometimes i wonder. wondering if things could still work out like before. many people asked me if im waiting, or she's waiting? everything is so stagnant now. it's been five years since something happened. and i always have the thought of us being like before. but it seem so impossible? should i? can i? will i? is destiny already have its own way, or do we have to power to decide what we want? tell me! give me an answer! stay or fly.

trip AWESOME.

yes. i shall update on my trip. even though i am now in the library trying to study.

first was my competition at Doncaster, UK. it was freezing. average LAND temperature was like 6ºC? and the water was... super freezing. the moment i capsized, i was stunned. in total shock for like 2 seconds, it felt like minutes passed. then my reflex to me i have to get up and not stay underwater. it was an experience that can never be described. just imagine playing in a game, when you are really trying to catch ur breath from the super fast paced game, then you're pushed into the freezing water. just imagine that. the competition was alright. didnt win anything though. we lost an very important match which determines if we get into the quarters. so we ended up in the top half league. 15/32 teams. not that bad. i know next year, we will definitely be STRONGER and im quite sure about it.
a game of the ULU Old Gits (aka the Lao Jiaos)


Next was my trip to France and the Netherlands.
before i started, the entire trip was great and we have some really interesting encounters, not sure to name them being unfortunate or not. here it goes.

First stop Paris. we went for this free tour that work on tips basis. Just when the tour started, it started to hail tremendously. so we spent 2 days in central paris seeing the nice architectures around. so on the 2nd night in paris. we were right in front of the famous Eiffel Tower, enjoying the sight of it for hours until late. then we realised we were famished. and it was already 10+pm. we were 'deceived' by the fact that the sun set around 8.45pm, thinking that the shops and restaurants will be open till late. later that we were desperately hunting for food, literally. when we reached the nearest metro (train) station to our hostel, we saw the chinese/vietnamese/thai restaurant. so when we went it. the first thing that the shop owner said was 关了关了!and the worst thing was that he was holding a basket of roasted ducks in it! damn it. then we realised that all the shops around us were CLOSED! hoping that there will be food back in our hostel, we rush back and the kitchen was closed. so we went out again, thinking that there will not be any more shops open. THEN we saw this KEBAB shop there. it's like seeing a miracle. oh well. we were really happy that we had the kebab, even though it tasted really horrible and we were bitching about how awful it was, being the 'best worst kebab' we ever ate. how ungrateful are we. LOL.
this is when it started to hail, really badly.

our tour guide, Luke, trying to lead the group in the hail.

next 2 days was Pairs Disneyland! everything was so magical! a wonderful and magical 2 days at Disney!
"It's a small world!"


after that we took an overnight coach to Rotterdam, the Netherlands (aka Holland). so we reached there around 5am. being lost , we asked random people on the streets for directions and they were surprisingly so helpful. i think they are the most friendly people we every met till then. so we took a cab to our hostel which was like 3 km away -.- the thing was that initially i heard the cab driver say it was €5.10 so we immediately hopped on. until later we realised he meant €15. but oh well, we didnt care much cos we were too tired. so 1 full day in rotterdam. we wanted to take this tour on a boat to bring us around in the river of Rotterdam and to Kinderdijk where the windmills are. but unfortunately, the boat tour was not on that day. so we have to take river taxi there and find our own way traveling around. so we rushed here and there as the last water taxi back to land was at like 5.20pm. so basically, we went to the windmills, right under it. took some photos, and went back within 30mins. it was really a pity not going into the windmills when we were right under it.
check out the menu: 'Sate and Kroepok!'

this was my lunch at Rotterdam! :)



next 2 days were at noordwijk (pronounce as nord-vik). this is a ulu part of Holland which is filled with tulips farms, bicycles and super friendly people! it was a great 2 days of relaxing there. just cycling around, relaxing at the beach and watching the beautiful sunset. the nicest sunset i've seen on LAND!
Lavender

Tulips! :)

Sunset. :) this is why i love the sea.



the last 2 days was in amterdam! the capital of Holland. a sudden change of lifestyle totally! amsterdam wasnt as friendly as the 2 other places in holland we visited. really interesting stay there. first, we stay in an irish pub/hostel located exactly in the Europe's (not sure is Holland/Europe/World) second largest Gay area. We are JUST next to the Red Light District which is also beside the China town. What else can it say. the only place in the world where they legalised weed and marihuana. wahahaha. but i didnt try it though. sorry to disappoint you guys. =P.

then the next day we headed back to paris on coach and to london on train.

All in all, the trip was filled with really extreme experiences. from the super packed and fast paced cities of Paris and Amsterdam to the relaxing and friendly Rotterdam and Noordwijk. Conclusions here: 1. Capitals are good for sight seeing but not to relax. 2. Chinatown is always beside the Red Light District. 3. NEVER LEAVE YOUR FOOD ON THE GROUND, cause you'll make mr mickeys your good friends. =/

p.s. check out my facebook for more photos and videos! :)

paddle paddle.

suppose to get my paddle during the last leg of my trip in amsterdam. but I DIDNT GET IT! :(((((( some miscommunication between the hostel that i was staying in and the dealer. so now i have to wait for it to be sent london =/. another week before it comes i think?!

the story is like this. the dealers promised to deliver the paddles to the hostel that im staying in amsterdam on the 21st. so a week before that, the dealer called the hostel to check and confirm the details. but apparently, the hostel doesn't know anything and has no record (cos the room booked was not under my name). then the dealer asked the hostel to inform me once i arrived. so apparently they didnt tell me about this problem. so i was excitedly waiting for my paddle for one whole day. until the next day, the paddles have yet to arrive so i thought there might be something wrong, so i called the dealer. so they told me about that situation, and they cant send it in time for me to get it cos i was leaving the next day early morning. so now they have to send it to london........i really cant wait to use my new paddles and to become stronger in polo. paddle paddle.. hurry come!!! quick!

under pressure.

i just like this song. :)

'Under Pressure - David Bowie & Queen'

house house house.

HOUSE! HOUSING! this is a big problem at this point of time. ok i think i haven't told about this before. the situation is like this. apparently, there is this 6 of us, whom we think we can stay together, as decided to call ourselves a household. 6 people in a household is considered quite A BIG problem in london. and the problem is 4 out of 6 ppl in this household wants single rooms. and me being the poorest of all (fcuking damn SAF not giving me overseas allowances) i think i have to go with the double room. anyway. so we have trouble finding houses and stuff. so there are some solutions, one is to merge with another household of 6 and split into 3 groups of 4. merger and separation, not a bad idea but the problem is now we have to find 3 houses instead of 2?

so this kind senior of mine, actually my OGL, asked me if i wan to join her household cos her current house now has 2 SINGLE rooms available and she's offering one room for the most £85. so it is so TEMPTING to agree to her. the only thing is that the room is not really a room cos it doesnt have a proper door, but i dont really care u see. it's at least a SINGLE room. and many ppl keep telling me how bad her character is, as in this OGL is very hard to get along. but till now im still very fine with her. the thing is the i dont want to move in alone, since there are 2 available rooms, so im trying to get another friend to join me. and things are getting quite complicated here. so if 2 of us leave our current household, this will leave the other 4 stranded? but it'll be much easier to find a house for 4 instead isn't it?

and im getting quite frustrated with this thing. damn. FCUK! someone please buy me a house in LONDON! DAD? or let me strike the lottery! ARGH!

panic.

2 days to competition and my trip. and i realised i havent been studying much. this means im not prepared for my exams at all. should have planned my time well and be more DISCIPLINE! bah. not prepared not prepared. no time no time!

sports heaven.

i went decathlon today. woo. ok decathlon is this carrefour size sports mega store. can you imagine? haha. the super huge store just making me so happy. shopped in that store for like 2 hours? bought quite some stuff. basically canoeing stuff that are for my tournament this weekend. cos it will be very cold out there in the doncaster river. and i think i might freeze out there. anyway, back to decathlon. it's such a wonderful feel, as though a kid lost in a super mega toys store. but this is of a different taste. it was really nice.

then next i went for training. today's was extended. it was a threeeeeeee hours long session. i was a little late (like 10 mins) and all the equipment were all taken. have to make do with lousy paddles, boat and helmet. that's the reason why i want my own paddle and boat. they are so important. today was super physically exhausting. imagine the training session being doubled? and having gone to the gym worked out intensively the day before. so after the session, i can feel my back and arms so strained. and i think im gonna have a bad ache when i wake up tmr morning. i thought of going to the gym tmr, but i guess i shall see whether i have any aches tmr. 5 days to referee course and BUSA tournament. im hoping the best out of it. phew.

19 years ago.

happy birthday bro. my real brother. i think it's been a long time since i last wished you happy birthday. i know i actually forgot to wish sis this year. and daddy's. now that im several thousands miles away from home then i feel the kinship. no matter how old you get, or how big in size you get (i know you are now bigger than me), you are still my younger brother. i know you must be enjoying the entire room urself, with my bed, my desk, my comp and my clothes =/. and whatever that's mine there are now all yours, for the time being. wait till i come back and all of these are mine again! wahahahaha. im going back to study and happy birthday day again. i'll see u on skype in a few hours time. ciao.

just another boring weekend.

yes boring. i slept at 5am last night when i went to bed at 1am. this insomnia thing is killing me somehow. and i keep waking up inbetween like at 9am for no reason. then at 11am someone tried calling me so many times. when i got out of my bed trying to pick up the phone, that person hung up. got super irritated about it and decided that i should just head for my bed. then woke up at 1pm. thinking i can skype home. but no one was home. rightttt. everyone's playing hide and seek nowadays.

i shld be studying now and go to the gym in a while. i just realised i only have until thursday to do my revision, no not revision. it should be learning of the courses instead, since i have really read it before =/. fri is my nationals tournament, until sunday evening. then monday going to paris and i will be back 10 days later. then a few more days will be school. 1 paper on the first day of school. how great. argh. i shld appreciate what i have now and stop complaining. 16 more days to getting my paddle! adious!

desire(s).

i was eyeing this for damn long until jac told me it was S$500+ then i totally gave up on hoping on this.

then after that i saw this.

AUD$2100 excluding GST. great. fact of life: dreams are expensive, damn expensive. =/

hours later. after getting bored from reading the same set of notes over and over again i saw this online. :)

it is around £60 on amazon. sweet. :)

then i saw this.

isn't this lovely? it's the newest and first wireless stereo earphones. ard $600? =/

p.s. im just dreaming. dont bother me. LOL

perfect dream.

ok i admit i woke up at 2pm today. LOL. not much improvement. and that's cos i slept at like 4 am. i dunno if i have a problem, or not. i've been having insomnia recently, like going to bed at 2 am and fall aslp at like 4? just couldnt get myself to sleep and probably is the damn shit lousy bed. and i had a perfect dream just now and this is how it goes..

i was sleeping halfway and suddenly i was awaken by my hp's msg. i looked at the time, it was 3.06 am. i wondered who the hell would text me at that time. oh. it was her. "hey! im back! and im super uber hungry!!!! rahhhh!!! ". when i saw it i was like. wth?. so i replied: "welcome back! er.. hmm.. ok.. u're damn hungry eh? hmm.. u give me 15-20 mins k? i'll call you when im done, and meanwhile DONT EAT ANYTHING YET!". so i immediately jumped out of my bed, changed into my cooking attire(and yes i do have a set) and took 2 packets of indomee and went to the kitchen. boiled water, chopped mushrooms, fried an mushroom omelette (rather it was scrambled) and cooked the indomee. put them in my cute black bowl-looking mug. (or mug-looking bowl). took a tub of ben & jerry's chocolate fudge brownie and 2 spoons with me. :) went back into my room, changed out of my cooking attire and called her. "hey can you open the door in 2 mins?, hurry k?" she was damn shocked. and happy, and contented. she was smiling all the way and give that usual 'surprised' expression of hers. she ask if i want to watch movie, knowing i cant slp so i agreed. we watch 'the heartbreak kid' ( i was watching this before i went to bed =/) and had our ice cream while watching it. it was already 6am! and she said she was really sleepy. i covered the blanket for her (i didnt believe i did that) and left her room. then i heard a loud noisy sound, like a vacuum cleaner. and when i open my eyes, i realised i was on my bed and it was just a dream. damn the cleaner's vacuum. i hurriedly checked my phone: no messages. =/ disappointed and went back to bed. =/

oh well, it was all just a dream. nothing is true. damn. =/

aan heimwee lijdend!

guess what?! i've started studying! woohoo. only i only managed to read 1 topic yesterday. damn pathetic, but that's because i was filing and organising my notes. lol. and i 'planned' to finish at least 1/3 of the remaining of this course :'Circuit analysis'. but haha i woke up at 10.30am, awaken by my cleaner's vacuum cleaner. then i went back to bed, thinking i could wake up at 12 for brunch and back to my desk. but i woke up at 3? lol. gosh. so now im on my 2nd topic. total of 11 topics for this course. and 7 other more courses to go. how interesting is EEE when all the courses sound the same - Circuit Analysis; Semiconductor Devices; Digital Electronics; Fields; Analogue Electronics; Engineering Materials; Communications; Mathematics. Speaking of it, i used to love math and it was always the easiest subject of all. but now, i totally hate it and lost all faith in it. i feel like kw when he was in sec 3. when math is a devil and monster. kw now i know how u felt. help!

thank god i have training later to help me loosen a bit. and to be stronger. haha. means less time for study. how contradicting.

and yes. i feel homesick now. esp after reading all ur blogs abt all the good fun and food u guys had. argh. i want to go home but not camp! 8-/
