So here's an overdue entry.
Went for a field trip and visited LTA ( Land Transport Authority ) gallery yesterday.
It was for us to learn and to understand Singapore mode of transport as compared to the past.
And how new technology will take place in 20 years time.
Like imagine a few years down the road when you can change the car setting to auto-drive mode.
When you can talk on the phone without even need to drive!
And how cool is that when almost everyone will have a tablet.
That's what the future generation will enjoy(:

It was about to leave the place when I realised I had lost my camera pouch.
Fortunately, I found my pouch at the theater after approaching the person-in-charge.
Thanks Alvin for helping me(:
I am quite disappointed that I could not see the presentation slides during assembly about the exchange programme. ):
I know many pictures/memories/familiar faces was featured.
And alot of preparation work and efforts has been put in to ensure that everything is right.
But never mind, at least I do know that those who are involved had a great time in China(:
Chatting, singing, dancing, cheering, laughing and bitching with each other. Haha.

So today was another long and busy day. But I think everything's worth it(:
It's great to hear someone sharing his story and experience about Sichuan earthquake.
How brave it is when you are going there as a role of a camera man with the news team?
It really makes me think that how blessed Singaporeans are.
Went to Amelia's house to pass her the birthday present.
And headed to play basketball with a group of friends!
Jiqing, Weilun, Junhao, Qingji, Xiuyuan, Chishuan, Shunwen and Hongren :D
It was indeed a good game with the cliques(:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMELIA KANG JI ZHI!
FINALLY, YOU ARE TURNING 15.(:

Yesterday was a very exhausting day for me!
I only managed to head to bed at 10.30pm after such a long day.
In the morning, missed two buses of 62 and 113.
When one bus finally arrived, it was packed with passengers.
Had no choice but to board the bus as I am getting late for school. And we are as packed as sardine.
Seriously, I hate standing beside the driver because there's practically nothing for me to hold,
and I could not balance myself but to lean on whatever there's behind me!
Didn't pay attention and concentrate during lessons, because I am still very sleepy and wanted more rest instead.
Slept throughout the whole of English lesson though, it's total boredom.
Went for CCA, and am ready to publish the post on Prefect Investiture.
Left with 3 more councilors to be interviewed and my task will be done(:

Started the day with a talk by an ex-student of Yuying today during PG lesson.
Mike actually shared with us alot of his life, from secondary school life on how he actually hang out with gangs,
get fights with teachers and using violence as a solution, and feeling proud of being cane as he gets more attention.
People look down on him, and he really reflects on what he actually did during his secondary school life.
He felt no regrets as this is the route he choose and had to face the consequences.
Mike started taking a private diploma on Information Technology and working part-time a few years ago.

In his working life. He finds out that qualifications is very important.
When submitting his resume during his first interview for a job in one of the company.
He felt ashamed of himself that he had submitted only one page of 'N' level cert without a pass.
We are being pampered by our parents, being protected by the school.
However, we will not be a student forever in our lifetime.
In the society, you just had to abide the rules and face the reality and you wouldn't know how cruel it maybe.
And I do agree that we shouldn't take for granted on our parents, teachers and friends.
The only thing we can do now, as a student, is definitely to study hard.
And no matter how much you repay your parents.
It is still not enough compared to how much your parents had taken care of you.
As a parent, I think they do not really want to have a luxurious life with big houses with many servants serving them.
They just want us to succeed, to take care and spent time with them and not leaving and abandon them.

Success comes in cans, so always tell yourself that ' you can do it! '.
I know it isn't easy and action speaks louder than words.
Sometimes when me myself actually have high hopes of a particular thing and when it doesn't goes the way I wanted.
I actually get more demoralised.
But believing in yourself leads you to self-motivation.
Do not have the thought of ' let's see if this works out..... '
Successful people believes that it will and it is possible.
Never give up and work towards your goals(:

Went to Singapore Press Holding for a radio broadcasting workshop with Leow and Huda(:
It was really interesting that Jeremy Ratnam and Boy Thunder actually share their experiences on being a deejay from 91.3fm.
Toured around the radio station, and went to visit 91.3fm studio while it was airing LIVE.
Took pictures and talked to them, a very fruitful session with the deejays(:
Really hope there's more workshops like this.
Because Leow lost his 913fm t-shirt and I didn't managed to win the goodie bag either.
We saw boy thunder carrying a bag of t-shirts.
And we actually wanted to approach him when the workshop ends, its very tempting okay!
We hesitated and thought about it for like, 15minutes?
Both of us wouldn't dare to ask him and I thought Leow will helped me but ended up he wanted me to speak first.
Boy.T was talking with a group of people and it isn't very good for us to interrupt when he's having a conversation with others.
Secondly, what if the t-shirts wasn't for us?
Maybe it's a prize for the listeners for answering the correct question, who knows?
Both of us regretted for not asking it.
If his reply is no, at least we had an answer and not feeling confused now. ):
Leow and me was deperate to get the 913 tee. Haha.
But while forget it, no point complaining now since everything is over.
After all, today was a great day especially hanging out with friends and I am feeling contented(:
