with who i want.

i badly need to buy new shoes i need to go shopping for shirts soon
i need to lose fat, pretty badly now

i believe that life is NOT meant to suck

i haven't blogged for reaaaally long.
i want to bowl. finally seem to get my release right. like, the tilt back in my axis (get it? axis tilt! LOL. not funny ._.)
andd today's so free! i have free time but i don't get to do what i want with it. the paradox of the school worker's saturdays ):
-> i guess that's what they mean by "you get to have your cake but can't eat it." (the sentence still doesn't make much sense unless being referred to by a real-life example.) like, if you HAVE your cake, why on earth will you NOT eat it?
but today i've got my cake(free-time), but i can't eat it(use it to totally relax relax). i have to WORKK. and my rapidly growing layer of stomach fat tells me i have to gym too. soo. gym now. maybe work later, if i don't succumb to the persistant and appealing temptation of dota. after all, it IS a weekend. right?

the day the government realises that a nations happiness quotient is more important than economical factors, they will turn to religion. because, in my opinion, there will come a day when they see that neither wealth nor poverty brings about happiness. and only religion, faith in the unseen, the trust in the intangible, can fill up a void caused by generations worth of seeking materialistic satisfaction. i hope i can be a happy person. if my definition of happiness stands; i hope to be a holistic, godly person.

woohoo. on my way back from gym.
some random guy: *looks at chris* chris (wanting to avoid awkward silence): Morning! some random guy: morning *smile*
as we drink from the water cooler;
some random guy: are you from swimming? chris: what? some random guy: swimming? chris: no, i'm actually a bowler, but thanks for the compliment.
*GRINZXZ* :D

hello blogg. :D
hmmm, today i had a loong school day. the first day that my timetable was full up with lessons. i think wednesday is my longest schooling-week day. at least mon and tues have free periods (since i'm not taking chinese! :D) and friday ends early, let's see about thursday. hmmm
i'm full on on thursday tooo. oh no, lucky i have sleep in tmr. hmmm, have to study hardcore for trigo tmr, since i don't have any lessons on that. and i failed last year's trigo major mod.
let's talk about bowling! i bowled 6 games today at trainingg. i only had one game above 200, the other games were 181, 191, 198, 188, 200++, 185. let's see. i was 41 up 200 average total.
that's right, for those that bothered to count :D i almost had it, but almost doesn't count. NOT REALLY! hahah
i used 2 balls on 2 lanes, NXT-G by storm on the left, and Wasabi by ABS/AK-OK on the right. the right was superduperfreakingultimatedryness. couldn't stand it. die die die, hahah.
helloo. today was alright i guess, first day back at school.
had english, ms ong is so good with words, so humble she keeps saying that "she cannot ever construct a phrase like Rachel Carson did." the phrase is listed below, really quite beautiful.
"so exquisite was the beauty of things ephemeral".
hmmm. had geography. mr jiao is quite funny. like his accent, makes listening so much easier. all teachers should have a relaxed but clearly enunciated tone like his. sounds like a well-tuned guitar :D. nothing jarring to the ears. ahhhh. i have to start mugging, this is so sad. i've got training sooooon.
CF this week's singing all the nice songs, but i really doubt i can be there. good luck guys! imy already

okaay, valentines day. awesomee.
went bowling with uncle mike in the morning. not bad, i hit a 1270+ for 6 games with a 151. haha! finally getting the hang of the release.
gave her a surprise!
okaay, backtracking.
training the past 3 days was a horrorr. coach fed me lots of important stuff, most of it was very relevant. just that it was like, information overloaad. let's see?
1)swing needs to have more pendulum/loop, 3rd and 4th steps smaller
2)push away needs to be straighter ( hold ball in line rather than in center)
3)swing needs to have less force upwards, basically walking faster on 3 and 4 while slowing down on 1 and 2.
4)need to get release fixed, rather than flicking (clockwise rotation), i need to follow through with a normal round-the-ball release (anti-clockwise rotation)
5) (personal encounter with problem) my 3rd step seems to be drifting more, causing my alignment to shift. not that i cannot repeat those shots, just that i'd rather be hitting my intended target.
THAT'S FIVE BIG THINGS MAN. arrg. i tried doing it all at once. totally died. so i'm probably going to take them a couple at a time. hmmm. bowling otherwise is good, i got 2 new balls, both are pretty fantastic.
NXT-G (storm) Wasabi (ABS/AK-OK)
okay, now. after backtrack, forward.
looking forward to joining back SSS, definitely not the same class. even some different teachers, but i kinda missed the sss experience. this'll be my last year, and it seems so much fuller that i've properly made up my decision. finally i can live my life at sss, studying, instead of studying when people told me to.
after all, it is my life. if i'm not making decisions, who should be?
hmmm. looking forward to gymming, i'm going to start fattenning up again if i don't, quick. tonights dinner was beawesome!

tag replies:
CASS: SORRY! you two are always on blogs, but i don't check them that often. soo. hence the 4 day lag time. ahaha, anyway thank you very much for your comments. BUT I WANT TO BORROW IT :D i don't want to buy a book just to be unhappy with the content. especially since it's the filler of the series. haha
SIJIA: sorry too! but i agree with you. TEAM EDWARD. he's the man, man. hahah
okay. since i'm at it. might as well post a bit of blog.
yesterday was a full daay. i went early to church, band practice/warmup before singing. feels just as good as the first time, just that the organization of the songs was a little rusty. could use some lube, but otherwise very very good. hmmm, the bass was super loud. or at least to me it was. haha! it was almost all i could hear, besides drums. anywayy.
meimei said "your mike was the loudest, then when you were harmonizing i was like omg omg don't harmonize wrong don't harmonize wrong" then she told me something super funny.
"must be god protecting you that's why you harmonize correctly. at home every song also wrong one."
yes i get a heapload of support from her :D
then. went back, did like an hour of math. thenn, went to bukit gym. wanted to warm up on the bench press machine and guess who i saw on it?! andy loo. hahah, long time no see. he's freaking strong man, his bench warmup was like mine X 1.5 or something. and he said "i just take put somewhere lower and do for warmup la." crazy guys. not that i'm not a guy though.
i feel so happy, satisfied :D finally things are starting to fall into place. or i hope so anyway. haha! friends are good, bowling is better, school looks settled, chinese-new-year-visiting-that-screws-up-my-timetables is over, my-neighbours-asta-martin-that-i-can-see-parked-by-the-roadside-from-my-window is cool, she's awesome
i think i've lost some fat. maybe i'm 16% now :D

soo, it was a pretty long day. i burned up my entire afternoon-evening with sbf's CANON function and lessons. but that's kinda expected. ): aut has bad timings if you wanna go out at all.
i won't have the energy to blog tmr morning so here's the rough sketch:
8:30 leave for class + breakfast with andrew in the backseat 9:30 lessons commences ( i'm supposed to hand in my TQ1 prior to this) 11:25-30 lesson ends *loud yelp of glee* *11:45 run at track slowly, for a longgg time (fat burn!) 12:30 bathe, change, head for lunch, obviously not at school. 1:30 finish lunch, do some work. 2:30 head for OCC, public transport isn't reliable for fast rides 3:30 get ready for training. 6:00 finish training (finally, i would be so tired). 6:15 cab/dad/mom back to sss, rush to bathe by 7:10 7:15 hair wax and beauty etiquettes 7:30 be in class, asap 9:30 THE DAY IS OFFICIALLY OVER. 10:05 maybe one match of dota? or is des calling. hmmm >10:05 this is all private :D
quite a good plan! i think? thursday will see a beautiful American piece of 6ft by 6ft furniture in our living room :D. it's black, sleek, polished, with some brass, and comes with only one piece leather-clad seat, roughly 1.5 feet by 1 foot in length, any guesses what is it? tagboard please :) BABY GRAND PIANO THAT'S RIGHT!

wow, it's been awhile that blogger was down from yesterday to today morning. anyway i'm learning to blog in between work like for breaks.
learn from des :D
hmmz, i'm kinda stifff. gymmed yesterday, it was short. but i hit the gym hard. whole body's aching now, i think a 30 kg light weight could deck me with a hit anywhere. haha, i'd just crumble.
life's not good no.
but the way i'm handling it is, thank God for that.
quick, i'm running out of break time, not enough stuff to blog about. i have math to doo. and it gets very monotonous, superduperfreakyilyultimately boring. haha, i want to PLAAY. but i know i shouldn't. i played a dota game with melvin just now. ha ha, sa and pa so cute. damn good team la. hmmz, so sad he got DC'ed. so i left. host was pissed off. hehe
i bowled like a noobie yesterdaay. i bowled 155, 224, 148, 157! :D total was 684. whee. i hope that kinda scores really only come once a year. haha, now i know how bad a 1 week break is to my scoring. luckily today no training.
going to CANON's office later, i think we're going to take pictures. thank god, the picture up on singaporebowling for me is like 2 years old, has an awesome (hedgehogged) hairdo. and a weird freaky smile - do i really smile like that?
