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! |

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.)

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

wohoo! i cant believe i am still typing this despite my middle finger hurting! okay i seriously CANNOT write anything in proper now, finger just hurts too badly. im still wondering how am i gonna be prepping for the deabtes competition, NTU DCs this coming weekend which is..2 frikken days away! no way the condition of my fingers can improve so quickly! i kinda put the photo of my injured finger quite far down in this blog post.. lemme talk about the Tug of War game we had today! =Dlike FINALLY something really interesting that we can do in school today! i was gyming on tues, and i saw Mr Kwok's class playing tug of war! so...since he is out PE teacher too, usually he does the same things with my class :) Ah my God. my back is killing me! x.x i went to gym again for the second time this week! 2x(gym)+1x(tug-of-war)=aches everywhere! so...after math lecture which was about 9am, we had PE!!! ;D and we found out that we were up against 10S23! and they had 10 guys! while we had 5 guys! wohoo! GG. ANYWAY agreement was 5boys and 5girls from each class. so for our class, the number of ways that the guys can be chosen can be calculated using the math formula, 5choose5 which is....1! ONE WAY! so all of us have to pull throughout the 5rounds. only 6 girls came..so yeah only 1 person got to rest.. The game is like this. whichever class loses the round, they have to run 400m, excluding those who pulled. but! if the overall score is like 3-2 then the losing class has to run 3 rounds! this one, everyone in the class has to run! hahahahah at first the guys were like *sigh* no hope!! "mr kwok, can we run?" i was standing right in front :D best view! but also toughest position x.x funny thing is...our class won all 5 rounds! :D total humiliation to 10S22! not to mention, the last round was 10guys from s22 vs 5guys+6girls from s13(my class) and we still won! :D seriously i thought that round we were going to lose xP ended up because of our teamwork, we won! seriously we nearly lost the round, but later as the whole class cooperated together, it made such a whole BIG difference! tug of war isnt just about pure strength and weight, its about TEAMWORK too! strategise to win! lemme tell ya how i got my injury.. i was standing right in front, so the first hand of the entire team was my left hand. sooooo it was the one that got injured in the midst of pulling. erm i dont exactly know how it was caused? but all i know is that portions of my skin was being ripped off! o.o hahahaha as the rounds increased, more layers came out! xD soon it was just bare. as usual..blood and pass started flowing out -.- zzz *puts a huge plaster* the conventional ones were too small.. here is the pic below! anyway in the afternoon after school, i went for my second gym session for this week! thankfully when it ended, Mr Kwok being a super kind teacher offered to nurse my wound for me! he sprayed some kinda liquid onto the open wound, feels like deep heat =.= but its not. it creates this thin, waterproof layer of film over the wound to let it recover! pretty cool! :D but it sure was painful when it was sprayed on! my finger just went numb when he sprayed. ![]() after drying the wound :D before Mr kwok helped me out with it! Mr Kwok still remains as one of the teachers that i respect most in the school and man do i find him so inspirational and helpful! hahaha he cracks lame jokes too xD but the class still find the jokes funny anyway! truly one of the best teachers in PJC. :) he also helped me out when i retained. last time he was my rugby coach. now, he is my awesome PE teacher! PE tml again! this time, physical training! hope i dont fall apart halfway! :) today indeed has been a GOOD day! love Tug of War! expecially if my group wins xD 10S13 working as a class once again! just like in orientation =D TEAMWORK!

Woot It feels as though I have yet to blog for eternity! Blogging in school during assembly.hah! Its some suggestion and feedback session. Lols its supposed to be on the academic aspect but everyone is asking about other topics :P Well school has started and we are getting back our common test results. And mourning over them. Argh! Math is like my nemesis! No matter what topics are tested, Im always stuck at 54 marks! So pathetic and it just doesnt seem to go up T.T one more mark to a C grade..tsk tsk! Even more exasperated zzz! Need to work harder..need to work harder.. Argh argh! ANYWAYYYY, yesterday was the first time I gymed since the common tests started! All the weights suddenly seemed so much heavier! Even though I used the same free weights..felt like so worn out! Maybe its because of the run before that o.o jie yong, my classmate joined me! We ran before gyming. Gotta so prepare for darn NS..zzz! So not looking forward to NS. Have yet to set a date for the physical test o.o dont know why I kept feeling so thirsty while working out yesterday. Probably a shortage of water in my body >.< its okayyyy tomorrow gyming again! Im like so gonna tire myself out. There is physical training for pe tml morning (heee I heard we are playing tug of war :D yeah! I lurrrrrve it!! Must own the other class!) okay back to topic..then after school I have gyming session, then Friday, I have physical training for pe again! :D surely gonna be SUPER worn out! Oh I so wish life could be less hectic! I shall post about debates later after my debates training! Thursday, March 24, 2011
Blogging on the go as usual! Seems like thats the only time I have to blog xD anywayyyy my common tests are finally overrr!! :D chemistry h2 paper wasnt good x.x pretty tough! Thats because I have been focusing on organic chemistry and like a whopping 90% of the freaking paper was on nitrogen compounds (a teeny winnie bit of organic compounds), periodicity group II and reaction kinetics like wtheck! If only teacher dropped some hints T.T its all of this years topics and like none of last year's! I so wanna wanna watch world invasion battle LA! It looks like hardcore action film! Zzz no one seems to be able to watch it today since most of the classes are still having their common tests..heee my class is a hybrid combi so we end earlier! :D muahahahaha! Hmmm maybe I should go ask some people out for movie! Finally I get to take a much needed rest >.< studying all the way can get tiring at times! Especially during times when there is little motivation. Come to think of it I still have cca competitions coming up and I need 1 more person to fill up the debate team! SMU hammers is like in early may.. Not much time to prepare for it, given how tight and hectic my schedule is! Im soooo gonna go home and chillax :P Labels: school Monday, March 21, 2011
Bah physics paper wasnt easy x.x Mr Tan, our physics teacher cheated our feelings! He saidcertain types of questions would appear but they didnt!! Oh well physics is my worst subject ever since secondary 3 T.T luckily I took it as a h1 subject and not as a h2 :P pheeew! anyway I still have 3 more papers and they are all of the major ones. H2 subs, chemistry economics and math. Imma work harder for the rest!

I posted a mobile upload of my new itouch4 which was from my mum again! My 2nd gen itouch revived! But its a little cranky.. And the volume buttons at the side just wouldnt work. Wait till you see the back of it! Its battered with scratches and holes o.o the backing gets scratched very easily..so I actually thought of whipping out my clear coating for my plastic models and spray onto the 4th gen! But I have yet to do so. Ah back toy.second gen itouch. Yes I said there were holes on the backcover! I dropped it on the road before? So thats how the holes came about. Mini ones butthey actually penetrated the cover o.o itouch got laggy too.. So it called for a change! Its been 4 days since I got my new itouch! Like seriously I cant believe that its just 4 days xD feels like weeks! Maybe its because I synced whatever there was in the 2nd gen into the 4th gen lols. Here are some photos of the unboxing! Anyway it was shipped over because mum ordered it over the net instead :P lols that you actually get engraving for the itouch on the back. Ah its only for itouch, not for iphone! Muahahaha thats why you should get itouch and an android phone or blackberry xP best of both worlds! Plus a much longer total battery life :) Oops lemme get back to the ipod touch. In my opinion, 2nd and 4th gen doesnt have much of a difference other than the slimmer body, camera, better graphics and facetime. :) of all the things, I like the camera function the most! I dont exactly know why it appeals to me, but the camera quality sucks. Lols. Worse than my xperia. So videos and everything will still be used by my xperia! However xperia doesnt have 3g function, thats where itouch comes in real handy indeed. Overall, I think getting a new gen itouch is sooo much more worth it than repairing the 2nd gen since Im only paying $100 bucks more! It costs about $400, while a second gen itouch costs $300 to repair since its like freakin rare o.o oh by the way, a first gen itouch costs $500 bucks to repair! xD ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() heee this is an extra photo~ Friday, March 18, 2011
I was browsing through DeviantArt for really nice artworks, because they seriously have very nice artworks there are some artworks which are done by amateurs too and its always nice to take a browse for new wallpapers!one thing that suprised me, was when the i noticed the background of these photos..i have no idea why but most of the time when i see a photo of singapore, the first word that comes to mind is "humid". No idea why...ANYWAY let me get on with the photos :) Okay some background info for those peeps who don't watch Macross Frontier. btw, its an anime T.T THOSE WHO KNOWS MACROSS CAN HAPPILY SKIP THIS ENTIRE PARA! erm its basically an anime that is sort of like a crossover between gundam, and transformers. basically its juse planes transforming to "gundams". Its based on the future, whereby mankind decides to build HUGE spaceships that can house and sustain colonies. However they are constantly under attack by aliens so thus the need of these soldiers piloting the planes :)not to forget, everything is in the future.. Then the story's main characters are as follows. 1. Alto (blue haired GUY who looks like a girl) hes a pilot. 2. Sheryl Nome (singer with blonde hair)Shes a reknowned singer. 3. Ranka Lee (Green-haired short girl) um..lucky girl-next-door who can sing! 4. about half a dozen more but im too lazy to list em all down. here is the video of the first opening of macross frontier, it showcases all the main characters :) yay for youtube! OKAY! thats all for the background knowlege! all those who watched the anime can definitely appreciate the photos a lot more muahahahaha i watch lotsa animes, and i would say this one is reallyyyyy goooooood. :D FINALLY TO THE PEEKTURES! The following photos are all by the same photographer and cosplayers and they are all done in Singapore...amazingly they actually managed to find really nice spots to take photo of! Macross Frontier - Obelisk by *Ayatenshi on deviantART thats sheryl..nome and this too :) i personally like this one! the cosplayer fits soooo nice into her role and the costume is exactly the same! photo was taken at Singapore River. Macross Frontier: Obelisk by *zimiel on deviantART this one isnt from Singapore! but its still nice... :D so i added it in! love the background of this.. :) Macross Frontier-Space Opera by =kirawinter on deviantART Labels: Anime Sunday, March 13, 2011
Obviously nearly every single person have heard of the "worst disaster since World War II " in Japan. As quoted from Japan's Prime Minister, Naoto Kan. My heartfelt condolences goes out to those affected..oh man of all places Japan :( the place that I really love to go for holidays and admire in terms of discipline. The damage is just so real as I watch videos and news reports all about it. In Singapore, the earthquake incident took up the ENTIRE news air time. Thats how important Japan is to Singapore. Now the earthquake is gone and the tsunami has already subsided, but there are still much trouble to be solved. Such as the potential nuclear plant meltdown in fukushima prefecture as well as the restoration efforts. Not to mention the 70% percent chance of another earthquake striking Japan again really soon :/ I applaud the stoicness of the Japanese people in the fàce of such destruction, they are so cam and are so ready to begin restoration efforts! Not to mention restoration efforts have already begun! :) such a systematic way of solving the problems at hand! Also, aid from various countries have been streaming in really quickly! Today, the news just covered the Japan crisis as usual..this time minister George Yeo commented on the crisis whilst doing his walkabouts for elections. Bro made this comment: people in Japan are dying and yet the news is showing elections. Like who in Singapore cares abou elections now when Japan is like that? In my opinion, I think minister George Yeo should be more worried about the loss of human lives rather than the economic impact the crisis has on Singapore's economy. Yes everyone knows our economy is going to be impacted by it judging by our dependence on the japanese economy. First impression that came to mind was "does it always have to be in dollar and cents?!" moreover human lives are precious to such an extent no monetary value can be attached to it. Maybe it could have been how the reporter framed the question but nevertheless I think he should have still made mention of relief efforts, just show at least a pinch of concern for those missing or the dead? I think that would definitely help in demonstrating the care that ministers have towards the masses. Wow even Facebook games like Cityville and pop stars like Lady Gaga are giving a helping hand. China, japan's rival also sent a team or rescuers and Japan accepted it :) Im sure Japan will recover from such a crisis really quickly given the amount of help provided by 80 countries as well as the strong mindset of the people in rebuilding the country. :) Given the dependency of many countries on Japan and the magnitude of the earthquake, this earthquake would be one that shake not just Japan, but the world. *disclaimer the above mentioned are based purely on my perception of current events.

Bet lots of people would be wondering the same question o.o common test is like so serious till if you fail it you can drop to j1! Moreover, the standard is more like promotional exams standard so... Might as well call it exams! Its really fast that common test has arrived.. Guess the life as a j2 passes real quickly its like study study then cca and gym then the whole week is just poof! Gone! Extremely quick! T.T now even if I want to buy time to study I just cant. Heee now I feel like slacking abit though since its like fridayyyy~ and just done with hellish GP paperrr~ chill chill a lil! Bah as much as I want to do plastic modelling now, I know I cant. Its just wayyy out of my time. No way can I spare days for it when there is freaking a levels and common test. Come to think of it I still need to grab some lunch before I go home! Last Sunday, I actually rolled down the stairs in church while serving haaaa it was like vertically tumble down not like horizontally.. If you actually understand what I am saying -_-"' it was like forward fall and not sideways? Think that sounds clearer. I was serving in church and as I was Not used to the jurong west church layout, I walked down the stairs diagonally and backwards. So imissed a step and fell.. its like front forward fall not sideways. Lols. After that, later in the week, I actually injured my leg because I went to gym and run without any warm ups! (clearly looking for trouble) so thats how my legs got really injured this week! >.< Its the holidays now.. If I even have any all thanks to the common tests zzz! Anywayyi should be spending most of my time studying, not so much walking around, dont think I will fall so many times :) Labels: school Sunday, March 06, 2011
Last night, my itouch revived! Mum took it off the charger and apparently it didnt die..before that, my itouch could.only survive if there is a charger connected to it. If the charger is off, then it will just black out on the spot. Weird eh? Apparently I didnt fiddle with it or whatsoever, it just suddenly was able to survive without the charger connected to it. O.oGrah all the records are lost because it got restored.. Probably put in some time-killing apps and I gotta redo my schedule! Time to get back on track with tracking my extra activities! At least now I wont forget when all of the activities are and where they are held at :) luckily my music are all still inside! Save me the hassle of syncing everything once again. Come to think of it Im kinda sick of the music in my itouch already. Time to download newer ones! Zzz but there is still common test ahead of me.. Guess I will just have to wait to a later date then.. My computer and handphone cant sync again! Stupid softwares at war with one another or what? So once again.. The photos are stuck in my phone. Facebook should so allow us to retrieve the html codings of the albums! Then can link link :) Zzz like 90% of the words that come out of my parents' mouths are words used to complain. Like seriously irritating and pissing me off! Complain, studies, complain, studies. No life. Like seriously I wonder what joy there is in such a life! I would rather live a happy and carefree life. :) just need a piano, teach people piano and probably do plastic modelling during my free time! Miss the times when I could just stroll down East Coast Park. Now my fingers are the ones sprinting down the keyboards and papers T.T Labels: Junior College Life, piano Friday, March 04, 2011
Omggg so stressful! I didnt take any results today, since I already took my Chinese and pw results last year.. And I am sitting for the big A this year. But Im still super stressed out! Asked some of my friends and they got like Cs, Ds and Es.. Omg I so do not want to get the same kind of results.. Okay time to panic and start worrying! T.TI dont know why even though I know I got to work harder, I just dont seem to have that drive like what I had when I was making a desperate attempt to score in O levels. Argh! Need what inspiration?! Zzz!! I followed my classmates to take their Chinese results today and they were satisfied with their results! Especially Jordan who was so afraid of failing it..he got a D :) good enough to enter uni! Today's a Friday, a really slack and relaxed one but yet soo stressful towards the end. Watching people take their results is scary too! This results is what determines our future. Make it or break it. Really hope I make it! Gotta dealt work harder :( I wonder how to when my schedule is already so packed. Still have piano exams zzz.. As though life couldnt get any more stressful! What I feel like doing now? On the damn computer and start gaming! I seriously need to chill, then I shall go full force on my homework and revision! Ah but mother is at home so I guess I will settling for studying instead since she is probably gonna nag till my ears bleed. Oh I can go play the piano! Just finished learning the song f***ing perfect by P!nk last night! Awesome song! Lol took 2 days to fully finish learning the song. Its like grade 3 standard o.o simple notes! I should start uploading photos onto Facebook and my blog! Dammit my phone better sync with my com tonight! Upload a couple of albums I think! Some debates photos during the competitions last weekend :) I think I have fallen for someone! Someone who wont fall for me :) love is blind, Im blind! Thursday, March 03, 2011
Huh! Its been storming so heavily these few days! Sometimes I really do wish to have my school flooded to exorbitant levels just so as to see what everyone is going to do! Okay anywayyyy its all thanks to the rain that my itouch is dead! Lemme tell ya the story.. When I take a direct bus from one end of the island, my school, to the other end, which is my house, the distance from the bus stop that I alight to my house is about..300m. I think. And I decided to walk home in the rain. Thats heeee my umbrella is so small and the rain is so heavy. Obviously the umbrella will have no use. So.. I kept my wallet and itouch into one of the compartments and zipped it up! My bag is waterproof so I didnt fear for my dear homework inside. What happen was that I didnt zip up my bag properly, so the rainwater happily "flowed" into my bag! So much for waterproof.. Yup my homework was wet, my itouch was wet and my wallet too. The only things in my bag that is waterproof in my bag is the wallet, stationery and umbrella! So thats how my itouch died! Labels: school |
