piles and piles and piles..

Recently, the workload has been a lot.

Well, maybe that's a huge understatement.

It seems like everyday is just to survive and complete tomorrow's homework and assignments.

Above that, I have to juggle being President of Christian Fellowship, Captain of swimming (guys, this is the worst possible captain to be, seriously. You have about the whole primary and secondary to worry about and about 50 events to get people to drown in), Co-captain for water polo, going for handball training, going for tuition, practicing piano, guitar, the list goes on.

Welcome to Form 4, I guess.

There were a lot of things I had to sacrifice to compensate for a lot of other things. It all basically comes down to a matter of priority. You have to know what's most important and place that before anything else. It's almost impossible to handle things if we place the same importance on everything we do. For me, Christian Fellowship comes before anything and I had to sacrifice several trainings and other stuff. But when you know your priorities, you don't regret your sacrifices, knowing that it'll all be worth it.

These are times when you're thankful for friends, family and for those of you who are like me, God, who is always supportive and always eases our burden. We're not in this alone. Just look around the classroom and you'll probably notice that there are people who constantly back you up no matter what.

And for those who need a friend, call me now at 012-...

You don't think I'd give you my sacred number that easily do you..

..Chin San?

Haha joking, you already have my number :D

random thoughts

Okay it turns you're supposed to UPDATE this blog frequently :D
So basically, I'm just going to write what I'm thinking right now.

Well currently I'm kind of thinking what to write.

And now I'm thinking writing these thoughts are a good way of taking up space.

I'm feeling a bit hungry.
I wish I had more junk food and not so much chinese new year stuff. A chinese-new-year-food-mountain is growing before the festivals even started. It's quite sad. We're already trying to consume our stock of ba gua which for you guys who don't know what in the world it is, is this meat thing in strips which a wonderful helping of food colouring on it so it almost glows a red neon uh glow. We ate it between white bread for breakfast on Sunday before church. A great healthy start I guess.

breakfast..mmm

I feel like eating a Mcmuffin burger right now. The one that's sold in the morning which has egg, a patty and the bun's kinda dusty with something which I'm not sure what it is to this day. I don't know why people don't really like the yolk of eggs but for me, I can't get enough of it. It's healthy anyway guys, so eat it before it gives you heart attack when you're 74 years old.

Not to scare you or anything.

It's still healthy.

anyways all this is making me hungry, so I'm going to go see if I can eat anything now. Or I'll just drink lots of water to fill my tummy. yummy yummy yummy, I want food in my tummy.

nights.

I'm 16 this year and currently trying to survive through the new concept of Form 4. I'm roughly 5'11 i think..hoping to grow an inch at least before I'm 54 so that I can retire happily as a 6 footer. My sport's water polo and for you water polo enthusiasts, I invite you to join me in my journey of waterpoloship.

I play all 3 types of guitar, piano, guitar hero and I wish to learn the bagpipes also. Many of my friends including male companions call me handsome. well not really i'm just trying to fill in space.

so that's me. :D You only know a person by what he says and does so all this is just a background. You'll know who I am by reading this blog. Cheers.

Remember to eat your veggies and stay in school.
