Proud to be a child of God, a faithful son (I hope lol) a trying to be hardworking student, a part-time worker, a nerf/milsim enthusiast, a crafting and music lover and an awesome friend. to you :) Hope you have an enjoyable time reading about my life, as much as I have fun living it! |
Minimalist
I am a university student who loves chocolate! Coffee is my best buddy when it comes to taking on my finals. I have a tendency to want to try and do so many different things at once and as a result, I've found my hobbies to be as such!
Nerfing is one of them, but aside from that, I also love arts and craft. I have my own startup, Thumbforlego at: where I sell my works!
I love to do all sorts of crafting, so you will see me uploading posts of my leathercrafts, thumbdrives, replica guns, nerf gun modifications and gundam models! I'm fortunate enough to be blessed by really supportive parents and given the chance to explore many, many parts of the world and try out a plethora of activities. This is also how I discovered my love for film photography, videography and piano.
The film photo above is unedited! My family loves cold countries xD. We managed to catch the northern lights twice!
I've also gotten the chance to experience many of nature's wonders
And my most freezing experience to date: riding a husky ski sled into the sunset (It was -38 to -40 degrees celsius and the huskies were pretty fast.)
Leave a message after the tone
Why 36000feetabove? This is the altitude that commercial planes cruise at and I have always loved the view up in the sky, being amongst the sea of clouds. :) Personally, my favourite favourite food has got to be airplane buns! Does anyone else feel the same way?! With a slice of butter and looking out of the window, I have yet to find an experience that can beat that.
After tomorrow, before today

LONG BLOG POST. well not really :P taking a long time is more like it.wohoo! going to sentosa tomorrow!! :D we are actually going there for learning journey. downloading songs now for my tap tap revenge 3 and its taking FOREVER.... like seriously.you have to download one by one, unlike the version 2.6 where you can download of all em. woot! xD these few days have been tiring but fun!! i went for make up cell on friday, (finally able to find an excuse to go to one) and it was fun!! :D i joined jerb's cell and managed to meet up with some of my friends whom i have not seen for a long time. long time = 2 weeks!! >.< yeahhh gotta make this short and sweet, im supposed to be long ago sleeping already. school's tml. ended fellowshipping with them even though i was super tired from a whole day of dancing. by the time i reached the bus stop outside CHIJ, it was already 12am+ and i decided to go for a really short jog before sprinting home. the adrenaline rush to the temples of my head, the feeling of sweat oozing out of my back, i just felt so great, taking deep breaths of the night air. just happened so, deb and family saw me! O.o sprinting home. O.o okayyy lets move on to the next day which is yesterday. i woke up at 7am, there was no piano lesson as it was the fifth week, but i woke up early to cook tons of food for charlene's birthday party! here is the big mess of miscommunications: the plan was for nicole to drop by my place to pick up the food and leave it at The bayshore first, but she called so late, i thought she was not coming and had already left home, reaching bishan -.- so on the phone she was like: "hey! are you still at home?" "no i am reaching bishan soon!" (wonderbar!) i ended up waiting at bishan MRT with the food for an hour plus -_-"' the next plan was for me to board the same mrt as her to the yishun station, which is the meeting point. at that time, i have only had a sausage for breakfast but the plan was supposed to be that we have already taken a filling lunch >.< by the time i called her, she was already at YISHUN!! and i was at BISHAN!! which means she actually took the train past me -_-"' so.... i had to take the train up to yishun. haiz. then, we went for paintball!! :D lotsa ushers were present, and it was really fun!! how i wish i can play again :) AFTER THAT, we went home and rested first, came out again. this time, nicole told us to meet at BAYSHORE PARK FUNCTION ROOM. so we cabbed there, deb, kim and me took a cab, with all the plastic bags and dispenser with us. it was a mess. after reaching the function room, we then found out we were in the wrong condo. deb was like: "niiiiicooooooleeeeee!!" so wanting to kill her -.- soooo we walked over to THE BAYSHORE. there was when we settled down and got the party ready! :) surprisingly nicole got the condo right -.- deb was thinking she would get it wrong and go to bayshore park instead. anyway, the party was fun!! :DD lotsa random-ness and eating and chatting xD got to chat with my granddad!! lols!! (who is jireh) :P to cut things short, i shall skip to the near end of the day! (or rather night) ethan prepared this mini concert for charlene, the birthday girl, but she had to run off earlier, its ok, we are still around :) here are the videos of the mini concert!! these videos are the ones after we were really tired out from the paintball and party >.< this blog post is kinda brief O.O Labels: birthday, celebration, Cell group, friends Saturday, January 23, 2010

woot! finally its friday mann. today was a long day for me, a fun one, but ended up being dead tired on the way home. haha early in the morning, we had to help out with the setting up of the blood donation drive in our school, the Kairos programme students organised the Agape project, which is done in school.This Agape project is all about donating blood, helping to increase the blood bank during the festive period as there is always a low supply. haha anyway, this year i decided to donate blood!! i passed all the tests and the questionnare, they asked all kinds of questions.. did you ever have sex? lols! obviously whoever have done it before wunt fill in that form. lame. ANYWAY, guess what!! i have a high reading for my iron count in my blood! its 15.9 :DD which means its so high i do not need to take iron tablets to help me replenish my blood as my body can replenish even faster :P i took a video of the nurse poking me! :D it was painful when she injected the anesthetic, but later on when the think needle was inserted, nah, not so painful already :) haha the video is kinda short :P can see the blood gushing out! so cool!! anway, there was this nurse who was so scary man... she keep poking wrong...pity all the students under her xD anyway later on we chose to slack at Lot one, caught a movie, gave up on LAN gaming, the fella just got us pissed off by his look. haha ended up going back to school, then packing up and sleeping on the way homeeee zzz.....*snoreeeee Labels: school Wednesday, January 20, 2010

school has been fun and boring for this entire week, the reason why i am blogging so late is because i dun really have enough time to blog, just updating facebook only.. ANYWAYS yes i am repeating JC and that meanssss next year, i wil be j3!! hopefully, if i can really do well in my studies. really want to do well very badly man. never felt to hungry to do well before. the only wall in front of me now is motivation. oh man these few days, i have really been a wetblanket. Kairos programme is supposed to help us to study better, as in to be in a better position to score better than the new intakes. oh well i really hope i can do well!! haha i just bought charlene's present, along with another gift, just saw that gift so fitting, so i bought it down! the last day of the week was so busy! little did i expect it to be this way. first thing in the morning? school. well that was until a record breaking 11.30pm after that, chatted in school till 12.30 for the bell to go off so that we could go off too :/ THEN i went to parkway, looked for gifts, ended up reaching home at 4pm. THEN i was just about to bathe, i received a phone call from Nicole to help with the CG refreshments. soooo i had to buy nuggets. CG was at 7.30pm. so i had exactly 3.5 hours to get everything done and cooked.. after calling everything and confirming, i went BACK to parkway again, rushed over to popular, to buy the mask, but they didnt have it, rushed to NTUC to buy the nuggets, bought like 60+ of em, tried looking for a mask but to no avail, so i went back to popular to buy crepe paper. then i went round marine parade looking for a shop that sold party items, found it and bought a few masks, went over to Koi to grab SUPER DELICIOUS jasmine green milk tea. bought one more milk tea for deb.. then i headed back home again! in total, i only spent $19.35 phew! i only brought 20 with me, and i managed to miraculously spend within that ridiculously small budget of mine. $19.35 for... 60+ nuggets a pack of masks crepe paper 2 cups of Koi bubble tea spent a big bomb mannn if i include the gifts that i bought. yupp, then i quickly rushed home to cook all of the nuggets!! took a pic. ![]() thats just one batch, i had 4 batches. i forgot to take picture of my cooking assistant!! its my beloved toaster :P yeahhh thank God i had Deb's help man if not i think it will be so crazy lor. uhhh! so lethargic these few days!! lost my brains.

As it what bro's birthday and bro loves games, where else could we go but there!! ![]() seriously, the mall isnt that big :P 4 floors only, including some roadside shops! unlike Singapore, where everything is just smashed into Sim Lim Square or scattered around shopping centres and neighbourhoods. ![]() cool stuffs!! look at the thumbdrives!! even my thumb is bigger :/ Bro bought 2 games as his birthday present, and we continued to walk a little bit more. i bought my new huge Audiotechnica headphone there too!! they were cheaper by like 5-10 sing dollars mannn must grab!! :D ![]() this is our train ride to Dan Shui, it is also the place where we met Dad's NUS roommate. :) ![]() the view from the train! :P station. ![]() thats my dad's friend!! as in not ALL lah!! from the left is my bro, then me, then Dad's friend then Dad. :P mum took the photo! scary thing is bro is nearly as tall as me! O.o but we are taller than our previous generation! xD ![]() the train station looks like Tian An Men Square in China O.o Dad's friend has been working in Taipei University all this while, and he is on sabbatical leave for a year! so cool man...so work but he still has pay for the whole year! so cool man..he is a physics professor in the Uni and he still looks so young!! and he is really packed with knowledge and happiness! learnt quite a bit from him :) ![]() he brought us to eat some steamboat and they gave sooooo much food! even though what i thought i ordered was small, what came out was a total shock. ![]() You might think that this is it, but. THIS is not all...this is just a standard set for everybody!! >.< ![]() THIS is what i ordered!! everyone is supposed to order one. OMG kill me. ![]() more food!! ![]() more food!! ![]() thats dad's friend's workplace! that huge building at the end of the bend. thats tai da. or Taipei University. ![]() he broght us around the place, the building to the right is the physics and math department. the one on the left is the chemistry department, they had a whole building to themselves O.o ![]() obviously thats the physics and math department building. ![]() thats dad's friend's room! argh!! im sick of this!! from now on i will call him as UNCLE!! later on, he brought us over to the staff relaxation room where the professors had their coffee and tea and whatsoever wine or food or ahhhh. ![]() thats the room! one thing i notice was that the professors there look so young!! its not like those with white hair exploding from their scalp or what, just plain normal working people, people who look fine. oops :X i kinda link physics professors to albert einstein that sort of look. i saw a picture of him when he was still young!! so handsome!! :D ![]() there he thought us some of the bad habits the students had. i learnt a new sms word!! "Orz" if you notice, its actually a person kneeling down! so cool!! ![]() this is like the history lane of physics :P ![]() scouts scouts scouts ![]() this is still in the university!! so scenic eh? ![]() this is a picture of the traditional classrooms!! they have quite some bit left in the university, saw a music class there :P ![]() so beautiful...if only PJC can be like this :P ![]() he made us walk down this path after exiting from the university -_-"' ![]() this is the shopping area!! its getting closer and closer to the sea already :P ![]() i cant see the sunset!! :( the sunset is said to be beautiful here.. ![]() ice cleeem fight!! hiya!! xD bro's ice cream is wayyyyy longer than mine, but he finished it faster than me O.o ![]() japanese pregnant fish :) yum yum!! its called shishamo :DD you should try it!! ![]() ate at the stall on our left >.<>.< href="http://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww211/bonesharkie/Taiwan%20Trip%20Part%202/?action=view¤t=IMG_0307.jpg" target="_blank"> ![]() yummmm hot food during a cold weather especially with the freezing sea breezes are gooooooood.... ![]() by this time, we were already back at xi Men Ding. wonder whether you recognise that box display is same as the one in the pictures in the morning. when we reached the station, we were greeted by a hugeeee crowd, gathered outside the station watching this girl drum the song "sory sory" by super juniors. :P she was basking by the way. ![]() on our way to collect bro's specially made cake!! ![]() so cool eh?? actually when we ordered the cake, we wanted a male dog, but i guess something went wrong and it came out to be a female dog :P ![]() family photo~! ![]() bro couldnt resist the dog's tail >.< href="http://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww211/bonesharkie/Taiwan%20Trip%20Part%202/?action=view¤t=IMG_0392.jpg" target="_blank"> ![]() uh... more pictures O.o ![]() we had supper i guess? after the cake :P grow fatterrrrr bro is always happy when his beloved food is around :P ![]() food food food~! haha i think this was also the night when i felt the 6.8 magnitude earthquake, the hotel was swaying more than half a meter!! >.< size="5">yay!! im done with today's blogging!! tml shall be day 4 and day 5 of my taiwan trip i guess :P Labels: Family, Holiday 2009
haha its a monday!! and im killing myself!
as promised, here is the blog post about my taiwan trip, this is the first part.. i guess i have to do 2 parts each day if i wanna complete blogging about the whole taiwan trip! i only selected some photos to show not too many or i will kill myself! we boarded the plane in the evening, mum took some pics at the boarding gate :P ![]() i have seriously no idea what i am looking at!! ![]() i took this picture by myself while i was on the plane, whipped out my cybershot phone and snapped photos of the beautiful sunset from the sky! ![]() tadaaa!! woot! so beautiful mann i took lots of photos of the sunset :P i took Jetstar airways, SUPER NOT USED TO IT!! cuz its small and so cramp, the seat isnt that comfortable, they charge exorbitant prices for their food and beverages (due to inelasticity of the food pricing >.<) and their service isnt that good or what. still, we managed to save S$800 :P so....i killed time on the plane by spending time with my beloved PSP Go! and Dissidia :P when we reached the taipei airport, the first stop was obviously the toilet! then the vending machine!! there was this coin changer machine and it helped to change a note to 10NT coins. the exchange rate of taiwan dollar to sing dollar is divided by 22.8. the smallest denomination for notes that mum had was 1000NT, so we got back ONE HUNDRED 10NT coins!! xD madness man... for once, i felt like a super rich person with money spilling out from my pocket. ![]() this is how the airport looked like. then later part we went back to the hotel and shopped around the area looking for food. because we reached the airport in the night, we had barely anything to do. NEXT MORNING!! i had breakfast at the hotel, then we headed off by train to some mountain to do some sightseeing and stuffs, i didnt find the second day that productive. ![]() the train tokens are cool.. firstly we went to 'lao ren jie' uhhhh direct translation: old people street. yeahhhh OK IT WAS FREEZING!! thanks to my dad!! as in he didnt make the environment cold, but he suggested that just a light jacket will do, so i brought one of those useless ones that are for fun and cooling for singapore's weather, plus i wore an ed hardy shirt, which is uber cooling! so i ended up freezing myself! xD ![]() this is how it is like, the sky started turning dark as it was gonna rain the alleyway was so squeezy, from time to time some idiot will drive their scooter through. (Taiwan = scooterland) in taiwan a scooter is worth as much as a PSP. mum took picture of some shops, here are the pics! ![]() ![]() its dark inside due to the sheltered area :P ![]() this shop is really cool!! as you can see the inside has this guy playing some weird looking instrument. that, is the ocarina. :) i bought one of those too!! its so cool!! :D the only problem is that it is kinda limited to just an octave if you get a normal one. i learnt how to play happy birthday and doe a dear when i got back to the hotel and figured out how to use it! >.< ![]() this is the eatery where we stopped by to have our lunch, its quite nice!! as in both the food and the pricing :P more pics of us eating :P ![]() i was breaking up the noodles -.- ![]() so much food! x.x ![]() food everywhere... ![]() i think i will die eating if i try everything! ![]() haha i wonder how many people remember this game :P its the one that we used to play when we were a child at night markets or rather pasar malams and we get to poke one box and have the toy in it! latter on as we continued walking mum bought escargoes!! they are wayyyyy different compared to those i tried in France and Singapore!! ![]() ![]() they tasted....chewy. as in spongy like an eraser FINALLY, we reached the end of the whole long trail and we were treated to a peaceful sight... ![]() this was the sight that greeted me, if you see far off to the right side, you can see the sea there :P not that clear in the photo though. ![]() it was raining :/ ![]() just took a shot and went off! later on we walked back to the same place, and boarded the bus to go even higher! ![]() we stopped by 7 eleven first to get some warmth!! >.< then, we proceeded on to buy some really cool umbrellas before retiring for the day...
