boom chika wah wah

and here's Rachel(FRIENDS) doing it

i wonder

i wonder...
if you knew how I felt when you broke the news to me
if you felt my pretence when you asked me those questions that pierce right through my heart but I answered them cheerfully anyway
if you knew the words that are dying to come out of my mouth
if you noticed I always hold them back and end up weeping inside
if you ever wondered what I wonder

what it'd have been if...
I were a little braver
I were a little more daring
I had said those words to you

i wonder...
if these words would go to the intended audience
if the intended audience could understand what's been written

or just take this as a chunk of jibberish from a warped mind

splurge splurge splurge

haven't been thrifty these few days. thai express, billy bombers, ben & jerry's blah blah blah. and wasted money on some ugly pants and shirts which I now have no idea why I bought 'em.
Indiana Jones was not bad though. it's quite worth watching, the ending's a little lame though, esp since I had a Cathay voucher. and I'm going out again tomorrow! this week's seen big big holes in my pockets...I hope those parents get their tuition fees ready to patch up the holes!lol

too bad I dont have pictures to show off~ maybe I can pick up the habit of bringing a camera ard and go trigger happy everywhere, any time. then I can make this journal very colorful! =) now...where's my ixus 500?hmmm...

oh and one good news, offered the CN Yang scholars program~woohoo! but where is the official letter?! mail man (reminds me of Karl Malone), hurry up please!

muxtaapppeeee

here it is~ just 3 oldies for a start

some update

oh, been running the 2.4km route ard my house. soon I'll have to come up with new routes before i get bored and stop running again...maybe I'll just post the routes that I have up here:

NTU is only about 5km from my house...only if there was a straight path linking my house to N/S spine...of maybe if I shift my house to street 72...not possible.sigh

and finally, they have decided to increase the mrt strip (opps!) trips. here's the report =) another reason not to drive eh?

NBA Playoff '08 II

okay. Spurs won despite double double from CP3 and Chandler. West limited to only 8 pts in the last 3 quarters?! WTF. bet they had Bowen on him with his cheapskate defence. haha. I'm such a sore-loser. and guess what, with a 1.7% chance, the Bulls actually won the draft lottery!

NBA Playoff 2008

NBA is the only professional sports that Chor Yen watches. the 07/08 season was full of surprises, who'd expect the Hornets to go so far under the young and talented sophomore Chris Paul?who'd expect Pheonix to actually benefit from the O'Neal-Marion deal? and again who would expect the Knicks to continue with Isiah as head-coach? everyone knew Chris Paul is great but this is basketball, a team game, and no one thought Chandler and West would step up their game (they should've done that long ago). when the Suns made the deal with Heat (sun-heat...haha if you know what I'm thinking), everyone was questioning the Sun's decision to bring in big O' arthritis who's way past his prime (but his free-throws improved apparently). when the Knicks had so many losing streaks, Isiah should've been fired long ago! (much as a legend as he is as a player, he's no good coach)

okay now, the playoffs is at the last stage of the 2 round. the only teams still fighting for a place in the conference finals are the Spurs and Hornets and both teams haven't win any game at the opponent's house. the 7th game is in New Orleans and I really hope the Hornets advance. why? because the way Spurs won their last home game was very very ugly. basically I thought it was erroneous refereeing. some may say that refereeing is only a small component of the game, it's the way players execute! but no, refereeing affects how the players play and it's impact is often underestimated. besides getting players into foul trouble, it puts a mental block on the players' aggressiveness, which is extremely important in such competitive basketball. without being aggressive, one cannot expect to win games at all.

although I'd prefer that Hornets would advance, I place my bet for the eventual champion on the Lakers. they are playing fantastic basketball (beating Utah Jazz in their house [Utah has the best home record in the season]) even without their young rising centre Bynum. if Bynum were to return to the roster for the finals, Celtics can wave goodbye to their championship dream

*pant pant*

first 2.4km run since...ORD. it's been 7 mths since i last ran. my stamina really sucks and those extra pounds didn't help. i have been much humbled...i better start taking care of my fitness soon!

interview skill = 0

went for the CN Yang scholars programme interview today to get pwned. pushed myself to destruction when bringing up astronomy as one of my interests. turned out one of the prof was no noob in astrophysics! i probably answered only 0.5 of the questions i understood and 50% of what he asked left me clueless. GOOD GAME Chor Yen!

with the way the interview went, i should not be expecting anything...but it would be a lie to say i'm not hoping...anticipation still lingers...

mid-May

yes! Supernatural is back again! but s3e13 was damn dumb. smjl "Ghostfacers"?! uber lame lah. it was about this bunch of gays trying to film the supernatural by visiting Morton house on 29th Feb and one of them sacrificed himself for their brotherly love. i totally hate the graphics. yes true it's not meant to be high quality but it really sucks. s3e14 is so much better. although it was a little confusing at first, about who's making the phone calls. can you imagine you get a call from someone every close to you but who has passed away? and he/she keeps telling you that he/she wants to SEE YOU!? that's how spooky! and when u get enough of these calls u plug out the phone line but the phone STILL rings!!! just imagine u get that in your home, or office...

driving is such a bitch. i went for the first lesson after my first TP (so now u know i failed). everything was freaking smooth. until...when i turn back into the carpark at the end of the lesson...i stalled. WTF. but nvm...i'll have faith that i'll pass for my next test.

tuition is getting more and more fun. and i seriously prefer teaching JC in comparison to sec sch or pri sch...really.JC kids are like so much more willing to learn. and of course the rate is better too. JC H2 math anybody? but when i go to uni how? i guess i'll cut my pri sch and sec sch students. (i hope they dont read this, but i dont really care) =)

PS. I NEED SHOPPING!
