Nobuta... all abt this very introvet, quiet girl that is the target of bullies... then these 2 guys decided to produce her into the most famous girl in the school... blah blah blah... story goes on.... relatively nice show... humourous at time... and some very catchy catch phrases... hahaha... "bye bye-cycle!!""kon.."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;finally the one that i'm still watching... Gambatte Ikimasshoi.. abt this legendary female rowing team... something like dragonboat... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/661/686/1600/gambatte.jpg"&gt;&lt;img

my time.... back to DDACP and all the tedious stuff.. argh...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;things haven been goin well for me... thats for sure.&lt;br /&gt;no matter home or school.&lt;br /&gt;school, family, romance, work. nothing is smooth sailing for me currently... hopefully this period will end soon... or else i dun think i can take it.&lt;br /&gt;i also realised something recently... i'm getting easily irritated... hmmm.. issit because of lack of sleep? or wat?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then recently someone asked me " so whats your future goal?"... i was speechless at the moment.. and i think.... and think.. and realised.. all the while .. i've been living without any purpose in life.. no goal... so target... no motivation.depressed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyways... glad to have friends by my side that still keep me sane... or rather not... they have been trying very very hard to irritate me... trying to get me angry... haha.. hilarious... they can try.. but i doubt they will succeed... anyways, you will not wanna see me flare up... it aint a good thing... that day is best not to bet or something... its not lucky. hahahaha...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;nothin much to blog abt

(god knows what they are doing there) they aren't boarding the bus, nor do they look like they're waiting for buses or cabs. hmmmm... is the bus stop such a nice place to hang out? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;talking abt love and stuff, my bros and i were talking abt our exs earlier in the day.... brought back soooo much memories. guess no matter how hard i try to erase or forget it.... it can jus simply disappear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3 girls caught my eye... haha .. finally some changes in my love life eh?&lt;br /&gt;1st one... this particular girl, when i take 67 to school, i would occasionally take the same bus as her... she probably stays in CCK. damn.. jus didn't get her name or number. hope i caught her eye too!!! hahaha... *which is entirely impossoble to*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2nd.... an attached girl.... guess attached girls have something that attracts a guy therefore being attached and not single like me? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3rd... hmmmm... she didnt catch my attention when i first met her... its just recently that i started noticing her.... but she can be a real attention grabber at times.....a very special girl... is under a certain category of girls....HOPEFULLY she is still single... and doesnt have any targets at the moment.... hahaha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but anyways...all these aint anythin serious... jus a few girls that caught my attention/eye recently....&lt;br /&gt;(aint expecting anything to come out of it)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-114857649464025194?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/114857649464025194/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=114857649464025194' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114857649464025194'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114857649464025194'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html#114857649464025194' title=''/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-114840008238149434</id><published>2006-05-23T23:29:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-05-24T00:06:01.123+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>back once again to blog...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;couldnt blog for the past few weeks...&lt;br /&gt;firstly ma com came up with the same problem as the previous time, something to do with the cooler unit. not having the problem the first time, the first time when i sent it in, the personnel called me up arnd 1 week after,telling me that the laptop is okay and has no problem.. so i was telling lies? no idea. my lappie worked fine a few weeks later and bam!!! same problem..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this time i specifically told the MEL personnel to change the unit as i dont wanna end up having the same problem... and guess wat? anyone could have guessed it, the Toshiba guy called me up and told me that there was no problem and the only remedy they have used, clean the fan.

I HATE CHINA TV SERIES!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i happen to watch this particular scene whereby this lady was sobbing and drinking to her sorrows, and from wat i have seen, it seems that she has a wound on her left shoulder thats probably slashed by her loved one. then suddenly dunno wat came over her, she took her wine and poured it over her wound, then the scene of her pouring the wine over her wound repeated like for a whole frigin 10 mins!!!! they kinda repeated the scene but jus adding new flashbacks , looks as if her small bottle of wine could keep pouring and pouring wine out of it for 10 mins!! its a magical wine flask!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so for the whole 10 mins i was watching this lady crying her head out... probably her tears are also unlimited too?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and worst of all its a s'pore and china collaboration film... ZZzzz&lt;br /&gt;probably tarnish the name of s'pore series.&lt;br /&gt;to me, china series are always filled with whiny china women with SUPER high pitch voices, and their series always start off with some kind of a china patriotic song.&lt;br /&gt;YUCKS!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;talking abt the song, didnt hear the starting song but the ending song was a total turn-off. starting was okayy, talk abt some deity and stuff, but as the song goes along, it gets totally out-of-point, the song keep repeating these few verses in chinese of course " i'm my mom's everything, my mom's my everything, if my mom's not happy, then i wont be happy...." something liddat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT HAS IT GOT TO DO WITH THE SHOW???? Mother's day over already lor...&lt;br /&gt;totally out-of-point song with a totally out-of-point show.... so whats the point of watching?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-114769759277826568?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/114769759277826568/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=114769759277826568' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114769759277826568'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114769759277826568'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html#114769759277826568' title=''/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-114766208235303825</id><published>2006-05-15T10:34:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-05-15T11:01:22.373+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>yesterday was 14th May.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;which was also 1 month before my birthday!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wooohooo... 1 more month and counting down.&lt;br /&gt;its time again.... to compile my wishlist!!!!&lt;br /&gt;and this time HOPEFULLY someone will fulfill some of the wishes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.

very long time. and when i finally started this chain of dreams, it started off good!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;first dream i had, dreamt of this girl, real pretty, gorgeous blah blah.... was happy with her.... so happy when my blasted alarm clock shot my dreams into pieces. damn the alarm..... i could still be happily ever after in my dreams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then i had this dream again... this time.. yeah... as u can expect... a girl again.&lt;br /&gt;this time... i can kind of make out who she is.... i've seen her somewhere... but have no idea of her name. this time... the dream... was the same!!! wooohooo... but it started off a lil... i would say... jumpy?exciting??&lt;br /&gt;was kind of chasing down someone... like some action movie... with guns and stuff... and before u know.... end up in the arms of this babelicious ladieeee!!! didn't know how or why i ended up there... but it felt good, never felt this feeling for like aeons ago. but anyhow.. good things never last. woke up. i can only faintly remember the touch of her skin.... the sweet scent of her body... gentle touich of her hands....hahaha...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;these dreams....

for training camp.the camp itself was good i thought. train hard when we have to... play hard when its time... its good. first nite... guys went for a nite jog... not much of a jog... turn out to be quite hell-ish i say... my legs were crying for help when the "jog" ended. then Say Meng said somethin that probably scared the shits out of lots of guys." this is just the beginning.... there's more

(as usual) its kinda boring *my apologies to the organising comm, but its really kinda boring* jus my point of view. but the most enjoyable part is still the "raping" and pushing of each other into the pool(as usual again)... then AS USUAL... the guards will come and spoil the fun.... damn... why do this happen everytime? anyways... this year the graduating batch got a very nice souvenir, i might say... its a very original idea. its a small singlet with their name and a 'long' (dragon) printed in the middle, and framed up in a wooden/cardboard frame. very nice indeed.hopefully next yr, my graduating souvenir will be as nice, or even nicer!!!*hint hint*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i was surprised that the graduating girls passed me a souvenir too!! a dvd actually, contents highly confidential. but it was really nice of them. i would like to thank them once again for the dvd and the wonderful memories they have left for me. THANK YOU!!!!! will cherish the dvd like it was gold or something. i would also like to wish u guys and ladies of the graduating batch all the best in the future, for the guys, all the best in NS, for the ladies, hope that everything goes well for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**oh... btw, whenever i update my blog, i'll put [UB] in my msn nick.**&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-114421149040826701?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/114421149040826701/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=114421149040826701' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114421149040826701'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114421149040826701'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html#114421149040826701' title=''/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-114389793531525103</id><published>2006-04-01T21:07:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-04-01T21:25:35.796+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>- epidemic -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;today started off early, needed go SDBA for some event to earn some "kaa-ching", its to teach some scouts, ended up with the mooooost naughtiest bunch of all. look like a nice bunch of kids at first but end up.... a bunch of lil devils. they even used vulgarities that i dun use!!!(not that i use any)totally prosposterous!! gave me such a headache to teach them.... but they are not all bad... can train my "endurance" with naughty kids. i dun even need to raise my voice with them!!

(when i saw the main actor saying these few things, it actually make so much sense to me!!). And when u finally reached the last doll, you'll know it, true love. so to everyone out there playing this "game", have you reached your last doll yet?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;these are jus some of the stuff abt life i've recently picked up, hope you guys will actually think abt it ya?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-114348508035793703?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/114348508035793703/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=114348508035793703' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114348508035793703'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114348508035793703'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html#114348508035793703' title=''/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-114318834084674531</id><published>2006-03-24T15:53:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-03-24T16:19:00.863+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>- busy -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;once again... yet another busy week. after SR 500, there's our NP regatta, organised by NPDB itself, so as u can guess its kind of busy for all of us, esp those involved. monday had to go down to teach some of the teachers and staff how to row and stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;tues was one of my bruther, ajax's birthday, went SAKAE as usual again to celebrate. had  a wonderful time there.once again... a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you again. sry for not being able to join u guys after the meal. was tired.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wed was the only rest day which i do not have any programs, but i forgot that i have to bring my mom for accupuncture, spent half of the day waiting and rotting, and getting my ass all numb and pain from all the sitting and waiting.ZZzzZz&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yesterday was the NP Regatta itself and it was a HOT HOT HOT HOT day!!! got all sun burnt, and the worst of all, i got a girl's tan. (in this case a girls tan means the tan of a singlet, cos the girls in the team can only wear a singlet for trg, they get the tan only on the areas exposed to sun, therefore, giving a somehow ugly but unique "singlet tan" or what i say a girls tan)&lt;br /&gt;okayyyy enuf of the tan... the race itself was a success, nothin cropped up. everything went fine, or maybe there was jus a lil hiccups along the way.&lt;br /&gt;wat happened after the race was so so so fun, and it was probably the thing that i was lookin forward to from the start of the day. hahah... but i can't really disclose wat it actually is, but i can only describe it in a few words, delicious, fun, alcohol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a accident happened after the "thing" that made all of us laughed out ass off. it wasnt really a serious accident. its kind of hard to explain to you guys anyways. but it was soooo hilarious that i laughed till i thought my head was gonna burst!!! hahaha...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;however the whole day wasn't all happy, heard from a couple of friends abt some relationship problems my other friend is facing and i was so sad when i heard it.&lt;br /&gt;Love for all i can say, can be a very destructive force to a human being, but it can also be a blessing form heaven too. was walking home after that when i saw this old couple, probab;y in their 70s or 80s, all geared up for a night walk. then this thought jus came to me. What thing in the world will make you still hold that rough and ragged hand, kiss that wrinkled and saggy cheeks, hug that all-so-familiar body of your 80 year old life partner? LOVE. yeah.. love will only make you do that. nothing else. love on the other hand does heavy destruction to a person too as i've mentioned, i've seen the destruction before and i've even experienced it too. but i aint gonna talk more abt it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love is something you can't leave without, yet it exist all around you.Its also something you have to fight for, die for.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-114318834084674531?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/114318834084674531/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=114318834084674531' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114318834084674531'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114318834084674531'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html#114318834084674531' title=''/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-114268628301669547</id><published>2006-03-18T20:39:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-03-18T22:44:30.096+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>- SR 500 -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;today's the first day of SR 500, one of a dragon boat race, its held in Seletar reservoir. the weather is hot hot hot!!! and the worst is, u can't really take off ur clothes and walk arnd half-naked, not like usual trg, actually its not can't, its more of a rather not, cos there are like hundreds more guy out there with better looking bods, so it might not be a good idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;therefore end up half chao ta (burnt), my forearms are all tanned to red hot, legs too... the only other UNfortunate half, is protected by our shirts. see the word UNFORTUNATE?

Viola!!! 2 hrs jus passed!!! cool down and headed for a loooong cold shower, saw TERRY and SHURONG in the pool so i went to join them by the pool side. talked crap... abt dates and stuff... blah blah blah....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;met up with my brothers (ajax and liang) and BI LING after that at clementi.had a very expensive meal of chicken rice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hmmm.. after that headed home. &lt;br /&gt;slacked and stuff... and if u're wondering how i spent my Vday? now u know... alright it might seem like i'm complaining but i think i'm gettin used to it now. but i does bring back memories abt a certain someone though. some memories jus cant be erased. so wat the heck.... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to summarise the whole of last week... slacking slacking and slacking. started playing WOW(World of Warcraft).. any pros out there can teach me a thing or two?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this week.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a lil less of slacking... a lil more of mugging. Marilyn Manson!!! yeah.... he's like my current hot fav idol now... yeah... gothic now seems cool to me. hmmm... wonder what made me thought abt that... hmmm who cares anyways... but no worries.. i wont turn anti-christ. something abt the darkside of life now seems very interesting to me now, gothic... blood( yeah... my ultimate fear)... and even my new blog skin... hmmmm wondering what i'm becoming now... some gothic dude? who knows? u might start seeing me puttin super thick massacra.... dark thick black eye liner... big sliver rings on all of my fingers... start wearing black more often (even though its kinda my fav colour)... yeah.... start observing now.... so any gothic chicks out there???? with their tight leather suits and whips and.......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;i also came up with conclusions myself!! (based on my own experience and thoughts for the past 1 month or so.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Do not jump into conclusion that a girl fancy you when she start visiting ur friendster pic,start chatting to you, start sendin love songs to you.. yeah... she's probably jus CURIOUS or FRIENDLY thats all. so all you guys out there who is facing this problem.... STOP THOSE FANCY THOUGHTS IN YOUR MIND!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Since you're single proabably because of your looks, looking ugly.... plain looking.. non-cool-looking dude. what for bother to dress up anyways? wear some singlet, some shorts,flip-flops, don't even bother styling your hair.who cares anyways?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. if you are not the kind of guy mention in (2), maybe you're single because of ur character, who cares if your're nice? who cares if your're caring and stuff... don't bother!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. if you are not the kind of guy mentioned in (1) or (2), are you gay? can't find any gay partner? man... (personally i hate gays... think they're like the disgrace to guys, so what if there's no girls for you.. you don't need to be gay right? be a monk or something!!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. alright if you're not the kind of guy mention in (2),(3) or (4), how come you're still not attached? are the girls out there blind???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. i think the females(mainly teenagers of my age) are getting very materialistic now. &lt;br /&gt;( i remembered coming across this grl, probably arnd primary 6 or sec 1. she is a total "plastic" *term used in the movie Mean Girls to term those uber high maintenance girls*... she's like only sec 1 or even primary 6!! and she acts, talk and even dress up like one!!!!! omg.. what is this world coming to? where is the time when a date can mean goin for picnic or jus a walk to admire stars??, and presents of cookies or a plain rose? now.... date  = movies (movie tickets($9 x 2) + meal at a very ambient restaurant + probably a lil entertainment of pool or billard = a friggin big whole in your pocket) really pity those guys out there who have a plastic as a girlfriend, i feel the pain for your wallet, unless you're super rich, oh what am i saying? how can u get a pretty plastic as ur gf if u dont have the cash?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. i know that not all the girls out there are not plastics. but if your attached... then you're not included!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. so all those single non-plastic girls... what are you waiting for???? go get a guy now!!!!!! you wanna be a nun or something??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* to all those that think that probably such things happen to me, your're so wrong.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;** anyways.. enough of the love songs on my blog... vday's over.... now.. my current fav singer..... i present you MM (Marilyn Manson)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/661/686/1600/marilyn_manson_4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/661/686/320/marilyn_manson_4.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-114054353930065408?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/114054353930065408/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=114054353930065408' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114054353930065408'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/114054353930065408'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html#114054353930065408' title=''/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-113982624794195201</id><published>2006-02-13T18:00:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-02-13T18:24:08.366+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>- Dreaded Day -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright... once the Lunar New Year is over... i knew that this day will come soon... very soon.... it has been awarded the Dreaded Day of the Year, none other than Valentines' Day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As expected, no date, no gf, it isn't all bad after all... i can spend time in the gym.... spend some time off in town... looking at all the love birds invading town. same situation happens every year.... prices of a single rose can raise like 3 or 4 times.... fully booked/packed restaurants. ladies with their beautiful bouquet of flowers.... etc etc... u should know what i'm talking abt. for me... its probably some tea and books... maybe comic books. probably have to wear some kind of gas mask out.... don't wanna get intoxicated by all the love around... and when some guy or girl approach me wanting me to buy their overpriced rose..... hmmmm... i'll probably stare back at them thinking..."

Jing Yuan and Ah bao, Joanne, Daniel, Li nan, Derrick and Sheryl, Jian Sen and his two frenes and Hanxiong 2gether with his gf.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it started to look overcast when it was arnd 3, when we have decided to meet at 4. dampen my spirits a lil. when i got on the train, it started raining like nobody's business. the train stopped a few metres away from JE station prob bcos of the rain. jus a few metres!!!!! and i'm gonna be LATE!!! anyways when it started moving, it prob moved at arnd 1km/h?? so so so slow.... i think if i'd get down and walk, i'll prob reached the station way earlier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyways.... got to Harbourfront station. met a few of them there. waited and waited for the rain to subside. got on derrick's car and 7 of us squeeze into his poor Toyota Corolla.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;got to beach carpark, put our stuff in the car and we're ready to get our entry wrist band.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we saw the new attraction, the lunge ride.&lt;br /&gt;so we decided to give it a try. basically we sit on this "carrier" that will bring us up the hill.(the carrier is almost the same as those u see in overseas ski resort, where pple sit on this bench like thingy hung on a tight rope that carries their skis and boards up the hill,yeah its almost like it.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then when we're up the hill we're supposed to sit on this go-kart/skateboard thingy and go down the hill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we guys decided to go first and have a lil race on our own!!!&lt;br /&gt;hahaha.... the turns reminded me of Initial D... hahaha... off we go.... wooohoo... thanks to the rain earlier on, its much much faster!!! raced down the slope, conquering the turns with drifts... hahaha.. yeah u heard me.. drifts. i kinds drifted at the turns and corners.... but maybe i'm kinda heavy and stuff... it "drifted" on the sides of the kart, w/o the wheels!!! hahaha... no-wheel drifting... cool eh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the ride was thrilling and exciting!!! wanted to go again...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*will post the pics up when i get it.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyways... played a lil game of drinkin goggles while waiting for the entry to the party. NYE Splash..... hope it'll be good. drank a lil only... trust me this time... i ain't gonna get drunk and wasted this time. jus drank a few sips only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;finally time's up and off we go into the party, its supposed to be mambo now.&lt;br /&gt;we walked arnd the place...was nice... all the pple and stuff.... there were booths selling all kinds of stuff.... temp tattoos, food , drinks etc.&lt;br /&gt;then we decided to get into the foam party ground. there are two different grounds for partying, one is dry, the other is the foam one.the music at that time was not bad, with a lil mambo with a lil pop. then... guess what? it got worse...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;before i even know it... the dj decided to play britney's song!!! omg.... britney's song in this party?? No way... and its not even the sensual party britney songs... its the older cmi party britney types. i stoned at the spot when he played the song.&lt;br /&gt;to make things worse, there were these 2 MTV vjs... some twins or something.... i can tell u... their screams and their high pitched vioces are indeed glass shattering and ground shaking types.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thats when the party mood start to die down... yeah.. that early... even b4 New Year!!! was so disappointed at that time... but thought to myself... maybe after new year... they'll play different kind of songs... like some R&amp;B!!!nothin in this world can make me get on ma feet and dance like R&amp;B!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5,4,3,2,1.... HAPPY NEW YEAR SINGAPORE!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wooohooo... its 2006 now... new year,new start... lousy start. started off with a lousy nye party. lousy music....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my thoughts didn't come true... the music got even worse..how worse can it get?? the inevitable came... house music... trance!!! OMG.... can't stand it no more... got out of the foam dance floor and we decided to walk arnd... look arnd. lousy dj!!!&lt;br /&gt;he doesn't even change the music when the crowd started to disperse.i mean like what kind of a dj is him when he can't even hold the crowd?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;lets talk more abt the foam party. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ok... lets admit it... singapore is really very very small. Jo's cousin's ex gf happens to be ma ex-school mate, cheryl. yeah.. i didn't know that and she brought along her other frene who happens to be from the same sec sch... erm kinda forgot her name already... kinda surprising to see them there... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyways... when our party mood was still there... we had some fun with the foam and stuff.... playing with the foam.... splashing the water at each other... covering ourselves with foam... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but one thing spoils all the fun. the indian foreign "talents", or abbas would say cockroaches. yeah...they probably filled 3/4 of the party ground. everywhere i turn, i will see a group of them.... not one or two!! but a whole group of them... partying like a bunch of crazy chimps. then there was this one time when i heard form derrick that there was this one "talent"(i rather call them this than cockroaches), that jus grabbed an unknown girl away and left.... i mean... wth? then he told us to take care of the girls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then we decided to go under the foam machine when it dispense the foam.a hell lot of foam.... then li nan wanted to pull me in, but i rather not get foamy and stuff... so i stand a lil outside the foam radius. then.... i saw this one 'talent' eyeing on li nan a few secs before the foam came pouring down.... i quickly slidded(yeah.. slidded... bcos it was slippery inside.) in and grabbed hold of her and place her near to me... and when the foam came down... i think the 'talent' didn't know i was in btwn him and li nan... he came brushing up against ma back with his all so hairy and disgusting chest of his.... OMG..... gives me the goosebumps even now.... i quickly pulled li nan out of the whole foamy mess....  then told her that she was lucky not to get 'scrubbed' by that hairy chimp. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after that i felt that they were kinda disguting... changed the impression of them on me... i always thought that they were kinda gay and stuff... seeing the guys so close whenever i see them in the train.. sometimes even holding hands and stuff.... but NOT anymore... they're not only gay... but they're desperate and disgusting!!! disgustingly hairy too... u can see a bunch of hairy chimps dancing like some bollywood movie... covered in foam trying to look all white and stuff... then when the girls are not looking.. they prowl onto their victim... 'scrubbing' and victimising the girls... ARGhhhhh... makes me so disgusted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the next time i'll probably bring a palm or coconut tree into the foam ground and let them 'scrub' the tree all the want.... they an even dance their wateva bollywood dances with it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there was this party jus a lil outside of the siloso party, called sunset bay *i think* where they play da music!! da kinda music... R&amp;B!!!!! the dj there was good... he even mixed a lil pop and a lil mambo in it... very cool... so much better than the dj in the siloso party... such good djs should be in the siloso party... i mean like the siloso party is much well known.. u pay much more.. prob we deserve better djs right? but thats not the case.... the lil unknown party at the ouskirts have a much much much better dj, u pay lesser... for better music!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then we had an idea.. since we dun have enuf cash on us to get into sunset bay... we set up a lil space for ourselves opposite sunset bay... outside the fence for the siloso party. there we danced our ass off to the awesome music. R&amp;B never sound so so so nice to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it was arnd 4++ 5 am when we're all exhausted and stuff....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;decided to leave...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;parted ways...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;went home and got my sleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this is how i spent my nye... sucks right?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-113620555433413662?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/113620555433413662/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=113620555433413662' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/113620555433413662'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/113620555433413662'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html#113620555433413662' title=''/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-113587398587302123</id><published>2005-12-29T23:48:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-12-30T00:55:30.846+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>BACK TO BASICS...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright...

IGGY and i have decided on China Black for this year's party!! we had a hell of a good time at COOC LATTE last year, and we hope to have the same one this year. but unfortunately, we are unsure of the age limit for COCO now, cos it seems to us that they have changed it to Guys- yrs old, Ladies-18.*can someone ENLIGHTEN us about the age limit for COCO? we seriously have no single idea.* alright.. iggy told me to dress up "proper" , which probably means, no more of my usual slippers,khakis and tee where ever i go. okay, got a long sleeve shirt, with a slacky black tank inside, together with my jeans.*i jus hate wearing long sleeves, makes me so formal lookin.YUCKS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;intending to meet at 9. emphasis on the INTENDING. hahah.. i reached FAR EAST PLAZA's bus stop at arnd 9.20pm. after a very stressful ride.*will emphasize more on it.*. guess what? i'm alone there, heard that COLINN has already reached there. but he's nowhere in sight. waited and waited, finally arnd 10pm? saw COLINN and ZHOU walking here. COLINN's already drunk!!! hahaha.... next came DARREN, then FINALLY the couple, YAN and EWAI which took like forever to come. IGGY arrived last as he has an excuse unlike some others..... hahaha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* back to the emphasis on the stressful bus ride. okay... i took 190 from Choa Chu Kang(CCK). boarded the bus, there was this small grp of malays, with their usual cool look, occupied the last row. a few bus stops later there came this relatively large grp of bengs, with their all so cool long fringe and their all so cool gold/blond dyes.all dressed to "kill", occupied the seats in front of me. hmmmm.... not so big grp of malays 2 rows behind me, a relatively large grp of chinese bengs in front of me.... stressful?? yeah.. at that time, i thought things are gonna happen. but lucky.... nothin happened, after a few bus stops. things changed from bad to worse. another relatively large grp of bengs, a different gang, different style. they have their all so shiny tongue/body piercings, with their all so cool ans spiky GATSBY hairstyle. then i saw the "GATSBY" gang walking towards the my row. they stopped at the 2nd exit and stood there, after like "showing off" their cool piercings and stuff. stood at the exit, back facing the "GOLD-AND-LONG-FRINGE" gang.&lt;br /&gt;OMG... can u imagine the tension? i sat down there dunno what else to do other than looking outside the window and listening to my ipod.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;smack right in between so many "gangs" i bet the other "innocent" commuters felt the tension. that was a hellish ride. with an occasional taunting* looks like taunting to me though* and the very wierd silence. no one's talking loud, shouting, or making noise like the usual buses, it was very silent, only the sound of the engine. the ride seems like hours to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;finally reached my destination... and i was never so happy to get off a bus*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*back to china black....*&lt;br /&gt;there wasn't the usual snaking crowd outside, but we still gave it a try. okay... the crowd wasn't that good, there wasnt as many chicks as i would have expected from black.the music was okay.... it got better near 3 and 4am. but at that time there wasn't much of a crowd. but still i was lucky.think only iggy knows what i'm talking.&lt;br /&gt;anyways that was also the day to remember as it was the first time in my life i got drunk, got pretty high... and did foolish stuff. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;stuff like this...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/661/686/1600/DSC00309.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/661/686/400/DSC00309.0.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(i was really drunk at that time)&lt;br /&gt;-seems to me that, warnings ain't for drunkards.-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yeah... it is the first time i got drunk.drank a lil too much of Vanilla Coke Vodka.&lt;br /&gt;was high for quite sometime. and yeah.. did silly stuff. to know more about what kind of silly stuff i did, u guys have to ask iggy or zhou t find out more, i dun really remember much u see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then wanted to go home arnd 4 plus, dragged a lil and i missed my last nightrider home!!! blardy hell.... the first bus is gonna come at arnd 6.22am. thats like friggin long!!!! then went back to join iggy. slacked arnd, had breakfast. slacked till arnd 6 when we all decided to go home, all of them took taxi, but i didn't decided to take the first bus instead, save some cash for upcoming parties!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; waited and waited for like 1 hr plus and finally the friggin bus came.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;reached home at arnd 7 plus, mom was up already. hiaz... got a lil nagging from her. finally got in bed arnd 8.  &lt;br /&gt;had such a sweet sleep and a nice dream too!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;christmas day itself.&lt;br /&gt;woke up arnd 1 plus , had arnd 5 hrs of sleep from last night partying at black. was hungry, cooked some noodles for myself, and guess what? i had my xmas day, sitting at my dining table, eating my instant noodles, with absolutely no one at home other than me. sounds lonely? yeah.. i wasn kind of at that time. the house was quiet. its jus me and my noodles. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;while eating, it made me realise something, i dunno why but festive seasons are best enjoyed with family and loved one. don't u think? but if u have none? friends are the only one* thats provided that most of them are still single. which unfortunately is not for me. anyways... that one single meal also taught me something that, one the chance is here, do not let go off it. if u do, u'll definitely regret it.its jus something i had came up with, from the painful experience i had.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;got down and did some studying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then a lil housework to be done b4 leaving for GERALDINE's house, one of my gorgeous looking junior. changed into a polo and jeans. didn't have much time to prepare food to share,so sry gerry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;met ELAINE,ZLILING at lakeside, JIANSHENG,BEN,SAYMENG,KOK YI and JESS came a lil later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;got there, it was kind of dark. but there were lots of food. all kinds, from small kebabs to huge bowls of spag. had quite a few servings. food was great. music provided by DANIEL was great too. ranging from kok yi's fav mambo, to the cool rnb. there was a whole icebox full off booze. tiger, carlsberg, abc,sadly no heinikken.there was wine and gin! there was jack daniels and martel later during the night. many turned up. had a game of drinking goggles.HUAI HUI was already drunk and was pretty high on alcohol at that time. doin the usual crazy and stupid things, screaming and stuff. ZILING's face as red like a lobster at that time!! same goes to JOANNE too. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i drank a lil too much from the game,didn't stop after that game, had a lil more. and WHAM!!! i was wasted.did a merlion there too.felt even worse than yesterday's. 2 times 2 days, i got drunk, today i got wasted! never felt like it b4, wasn't pleasant. couldn't walk straight, then lost consious of what i was doing, didn't know if i had done something stupid or foolish. therefore, i'm here to apologise to all if i have offended or did something that disgusted u,i'm sorry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the last few things i remembered is EUNICE and NENG HAO sending me off into a cab, then i remembered i called someone to wish her a merry xmas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then i remembered staggering into the lift, got into my house, saw my mom.(didn't even know how i manage to tell my address to the driver and paid the right amt and stuff) mom said somethin but i didn't really listen,then wham... emptied my stomach once again.washed up in my semi-consious state and got into bed.feeling like shit at that time. the worse thing is that in the middle of the night, i still have to get up to hydrate my over-dehydrated-and-emptied stomach of mine. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;woke up just now arnd 10 plus. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then reality hits me real hard, mom and dad gave me a tongue lashing on me being drunk and all. alright i was wasted,totally deserved the punishment. then ma bro, msged me and said," bro.. u alright? what did u do last night? i think u owe someone an apology"... thats the point that hit me the hardest. did i do something wrong while i was drunk? wild thoughts ran through my mind, tried recalling, but i can't, damn headache. then i came to know that i had called XX on the cab, dun really know what i said. didn't know how i did it, i had erased her no. on my hp!!

I got it!!!! so so so happy when i recieved the jacket from coach. he said:" Do your best tmr ya" . that gave me the motivation to even work harder and put in wateva i had for the race. got our race tee too, looks nice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i could feel the fire, the passion, the hunger during the briefing. looking at last yr's race, all the feelings whelmed up inside me...... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;quickly head home after dinner. must have plenty of quality sleep.&lt;br /&gt;went home and rest well.&lt;br /&gt;woke up fresh and ready for the race. this is it!!!! after so many months of training... it all comes down to these 2 days. wore the "battle suit" and headed for raffles. on the way there, met up with most of the girls. mad hella of a noise on the way there..... girls girls....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then sat came, the showdown of the dragons.&lt;br /&gt;same routine, same place, new faces. raffles place. OUB plaza. u could see a bunch of pple from far wearing yellow tees. look like a bunch of bananas. phototaking session!!!  as usual it took up most of the time, poses, smiles, flashes everywhere. laughter filled the air.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after that, we had to seek spiritual guidance, we went to the temple and prayed as usual. i prayed hard for our guys and girls&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okok... skip to the more impt part....&lt;br /&gt;2nd event... girls open. first regatta race... abit nervous. but overall felt good. the starting was a lil bad. i kinda screwed it up. leading to the girls not able to qualify. felt like shit when i came up. coach gave me a tongue lashing. i totally deserved it. i'm so sorry girls... so very sorry to coach too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;became so so so demoralised after that.&lt;br /&gt;then later came ivp. i made very sure that i will not commit the same mistake.&lt;br /&gt;and i didn't!! we qualified for the finals. thats on sunday.guys on the other hand did us proud too..... the seniors esp. the juniors however wasn't that lucky. but its okay.... juniors.. treat it as an experience. forgive but do not forget.&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;sat ended. was so so so tired after that. still have to wash my race tee and shorts for sunday. the water that soaked the shirt came out looking like urine!!!! ewww... disgusting......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sunday came..... the finals!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;lets talk abt the girls first. we had a very very strong heats. facing strong opponents. and we ended up 4th. i felt that it was in fact one of the best set the girls had ever. but.... when we came ashore.... all the girls started crying..... i know they're disappointed, so am i.(once again... i think its my fault again.)calmed the girls down. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as for the guys. they really did us proud. the got a sliver for the IVP guys. the same event last yr that ended up in a tragedy. the guys have won it for our seniors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as a whole SRR'05 was a good race. lessons learnt, experience gained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note for girls: To the graduating seniors, i am so so so proud of you girls. i know u girls did ur best in the race, so rest assured, next year i'm gonna get the medal back for you girls. i'm also very proud to have been in the same boat as u girls, u girls are wonderful. feel very privilleged to train with u girls. i will miss u girls when u girls leave. but dun worry i'll always remember u. as for juniors. lets work hard to fight for our seniors. work hard for them. work hard for the glory the seniors have left us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note for guys: You guys did NPDB proud once again. so so proud of you guys!!

sleeping like a log at home, reason: skool. can't take a lil time off? arrive a lil late for class? doesn't seem so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(up till this point, i'm not saying that i'm like some very filial son, or that my sis is not. i'm jus relating what actually happened. its up to u to judge)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;reached there at arnd 9. and guess what? the doc said he'll reach at 10. guess what time he decided to send my mom to the clinic? 1 pm. once again irritated the crap outta me. i was like complaining over and over again. blardy doc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now my mom's at home. more work.  1 lesser person to do housework. more "burden" onm me. dad's a lil busy with work and with mom. couldn't blame. sis? busy with ? lets not talk abt her. granny's not home for the time being. granny's sister jus passed away.(dun really know whats the proper way to address her) all the housework? me. i didn't really do ALL of them, if i did, i'll probably die halfway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now that everyone's back at home. granny does the cookin, dad does the earning of money, sis's does the early "morning therepy", and disappeared into thin air after that, all that's left is done by me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;had to juggle goin down for trg at kallang and housework. so that explains why i'm always late for trg.(my apologies to ashley and linda) tried to look cheerful and vibrant on the outside, but underneath it, i'm half dead. dead beat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yesterday's a good example. had to rush a lil more housework. rushed down for trg. tried my best to arrive b4 trg start, and i did. i was a step to heaven at that point. exhausted, physically and mentally drained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;honestly i have to admit that i couldn't perform as well today. became tired very very easily. bicep curls, 10-10. i couldn't really sustain as long as usual. i'm gonna break soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;guess what i've on later?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a whole day of lookin after my mom. turned down ODEL's invitaion for an outing.(sry babe)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;gonna be a long day tmr.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(not complaining here. but i'm really getting tired, very tired.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;** gonna doze off soon**&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-112983211195439442?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/112983211195439442/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=112983211195439442' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112983211195439442'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112983211195439442'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html#112983211195439442' title='half of me.'/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-112905396712051081</id><published>2005-10-12T17:04:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-10-12T02:06:07.130+08:00</updated><title type='text'>absence</title><content type='html'>will not be blogging for sometime till like probably end of this week?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sry guys, been busy lately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;will update asap ya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**i jus have to learn to let go**&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**peace out.....**&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-112905396712051081?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/112905396712051081/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=112905396712051081' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112905396712051081'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112905396712051081'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html#112905396712051081' title='absence'/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-112866410282283549</id><published>2005-10-08T04:48:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-10-07T13:48:22.826+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Help wanted</title><content type='html'>i jus got this awesome new song.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but the problem is... i don't know the title.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;can u guys out there gimme a hand?

type='text'>Love is like a drug.</title><content type='html'>yesterday was a dramatic day, for me and for ma bruda rauf.&lt;br /&gt;lets not get too much details in that ya.... he might not like it....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but it was all abt love. yesterday's a day of love.&lt;br /&gt;my mom's in the hospital. visiting her.... signs of love.&lt;br /&gt;rauf's thing.. also abt love.&lt;br /&gt;anyways felt good after the whole drama, real good. as if i've done a million good deeds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but i dun really see that kind of love surround me. what? do i have some kind of anti-love shield?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but anyways can't argue over that. maybe its retribution on my part.&lt;br /&gt;stuff that i have done b4, may not be forgiven by that particular person. so maybe someone's punishing me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i've repent, i will not let such things happen again. i've hurt u badly, i've seen u cry, i've seen u down, but u never knew that deep down, it pains my heart to see u so sad and hurt. you never know, i never let you know. i was selfish, i was dumb. i'm everything a guy shouldn't be. what else you want me to say? i'll suffer a million slaps, stabs.... or wateva.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;another weird thing happened to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ok when we WERE together. i've got no idea but when XX has trouble or something had happened, i usually feel something, can't explain the feeling, but somehow i knew that somethin have happened to her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i felt it yesterday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i immediately msged her. but as usual she doesn't reply. worries me. i know i'm not the right person to be worrying but, i can't help it. so the whole night old memories flooded my brain banks. scenes of yester year, when she needed someone, i am there. but now.... things have changed, but not all things. feelings on my part, haven changed. what abt XX? doesn't seem the same.... i dun blame her. i deserve it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyways, if XX u're reading this, (i've got no idea how.) pls give me a msg or something. let me know u're fine and stuff, dun leave me hanging by the thread.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-112825742773436730?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt=''

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;exams fever hits again.&lt;br /&gt;and everyone's down with it.why?? why are there exams?? sucks big time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;last few weeks have been a little havock, a little tiring , a little fun, a lil of everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;been thru emotional turmoil too.... feels like rubbing salt on your wounds.(old wounds that is....)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;one thing i remembered very clearly was on teacher's day. skipped class that day to visit my *or rather our* favourite teacher MISS YEO LI LI of FMSS. mwhahahaha.... sounds kinda rude to put her full name here, it also serves as a warning to those naughty kids out there, if u're making life difficult for our teacher here, expect a hell lot more frm us!!!! hahahha.... sounds so gangsta...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;abt miss yeo, she's like one of the few surviving teacher's there, together with our lovely MISS JANE NGOH, who recently became MRS CHNG!!! (congrats there..... where's our invitation to the wedding dinner???) anyways... these are the only two teachers that i went back specially to visit. the other teacher's have all either left or retired. now the sch is full of new , probably unexperienced teachers, whom faces i have never seen before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we met up at arnd 4 at town.( we in this case refer to our 2c '01 fmss gang here, with the usual suspects, ME! , RAUF,CALEB,BEN,ABBAS,CHARLES,KIM YEW,HWAD. the girls were not able to make it, so its like some guys day out or something.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we went to our usual hangout again. Plaza Singapura. hit BK for some munch on. then CHARLES suggested on goin SWENSENS for some ice cream. WHam...... we crashed SWENSENS , ordering a table full of sundaes and ice creams. i ordered a BANANA SPLIT for myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;here are some pics of our feast.....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Mmm, it's always better when we're together &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Well, it's always better when we're together &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Yeah, it's always better when we're together &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;And all of these moments just might find a way into my dreams tonight &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;That they'll be gone too, too many things I have to do &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Yeah, it's always better when we're together &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Mmm, we're somewhere in between together &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Well, it's always better when we're together &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Yeah, it's always better when we're together (mmm)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;I believe in memories, they look so, so pretty when I sleep &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;And when I wake up, you look so pretty sleeping next to me &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;But there is not enough time &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;And there is no, no song I could sing &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;And there is no combination of words I could say &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;But I will still tell you one thing &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;We're better together&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;this song was introduced by my frene MARK, whom i greatly thank for letting me fall in love with this song.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;anyways.... talking abt thurs training.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;its been quite some time since we have trained till i felt so so so SHIOK.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;normal warm up push ups of 100, with the predicted 40++ extras to do. after which the juniors were punished , including us seniors of course. another 50.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;seems easy? think twice, each count we have to spell  the number out, example, O, N, E, 1..... T,  W, O, 2..... and it goes on....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;when i heard this, i felt surprised. OLIVER giving such tough warm up. OOouuuccchhh!  anyways to spare you of all the calculating and stuff. every 10 counts , we have to do 49 push ups. 49 x 5 = 245, 245 + 150= 395. we did a total of approx 395 push ups for warm up!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;next came running, haven been training much running. the run was kinda harsh at the starting, with the-kind-of-sprinting-speed-yet-seems-so-easy-for-all speed you know? probably its because of me, not running for a very long time. after the 3 or 4 rounds of sprinting arnd the track, which practically took most of my breath away. next came the uber-huge-number of rounds we have to run.... guess how many.....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;18!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;wooooo hoooo..... shiok eh?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;i thought OLIVER was kidding but it doesn't seem so. changed my mindset once again to finish the 18 rounds no matter what. and the pace seems easier as time goes by, manage to catch up. then finally finishing the 18 rounds. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;18 + 3 = 21. 21 x 400 = 8.4km&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; 8.4 km and 395 push ups, plus the normal 60++ jumping jacks. today's warm up sure is good. good for health. i felt as light as a feather after all the running. must be all the fats and water i lost.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; came the pool rowing and normal stuff. ended training with a meal at KAP.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;tiring but a fruitful training afterall. as i told TREDDY, its been sometime since i trained till i feel so shiok.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;today started off as usual.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;the dragging of feet of the bed, the half opened eyes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;all went well till.....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;i continued doing my ED/CADM  project. super-uber-ridiculous-insane project i've ever done. all the parts and dimension. i spent a total of 13 hrs in skool today, in which i spent 8 hrs on the project itself. sitting in front of the computer screen  pulling out my every strand of hair. its so fustrating because, if one of the parts is modified, the whole result might be different and the computer will jus make things worse by "corrupting" the files, making it useless. MEI YAN, LIANG and i were practically on the verge of breakdown at arnd 8+pm. till then we have already spent 7 hrs ++ on the project, changing this and that, going back, round and round. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;we had to cool YAN down most of the time as she was the one that becomes bonkers the easiest. yelling and throwing tantrums,(mwhahaha... sound like a small kid eh? hope yan is not reading this). you might even thought that you have stepped into the wrong place when u see us, three.... or more specific two people going absolutely nuts. LIANG was the brainest among us, having more knowledge on CADM than both of us, we often seek help from him. thanks bro!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;after the fustrating project which we yet to finish, as the technician had to close the lab, we have to continue this madness on monday.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;went KAP to eat again.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;so so so tired that i almost fell asleep as soon as i got a seat.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;*gotta slp now, trainin's tmr.*&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;** peace out... **&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-112447482039213883?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/112447482039213883/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=112447482039213883' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112447482039213883'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112447482039213883'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html#112447482039213883' title='Better together'/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-112421224804068231</id><published>2005-08-17T16:10:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-08-17T01:10:48.046+08:00</updated><title type='text'>updates</title><content type='html'>gonna update a new song soon....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;stay tuned....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**peace out..............**&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9428788-112421224804068231?l=simple-gareth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/feeds/112421224804068231/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9428788&amp;postID=112421224804068231' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112421224804068231'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9428788/posts/default/112421224804068231'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://simple-gareth.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html#112421224804068231' title='updates'/><author><name>gareth</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04754896513849918721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9428788.post-112420757687974766</id><published>2005-08-17T14:52:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-08-16T23:52:56.903+08:00</updated><title type='text'>life's full of UPs and DOWNs</title><content type='html'>training today was kinda happening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;firstly, during training, BEN sprained his ankle, then before i know i see JAS having some problems breathing. i'm like the medic over there.&lt;br /&gt;then when i was getting water, saw one of the junior girl, having gastric. aiyo....&lt;br /&gt;disastrous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;lucky i was ok....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;training was ok today... gym was good&lt;br /&gt;must train running!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after training very little pple went to eat . only a handful of us.
