Gd news... Bad news... - 9:24 AM
Haha I have some good news for myself and some bad news for myself. First of all, for the first time in my life I managed to reformat my computer without a hitch and I am proud of myself. The process was long and at the end of the dae, to see my computer running faster without lagging and alongside my liverpool draw at stanford bridge, I would say its a happy night. All I expected them of is to draw and I would have been happy enough. Thank god now they did and we have a chance against the so call unbeatable Chelsea in the second leg when they come to Anfield. Now I can come back online, which explains my dissapearance from the online world.Ok the bad news to me was as I don't have a burner, all my files and songs were gone with the reformat. Well I guess its about time coz my friend said he reformat his computer once a year and for me its the first time in 3 years. Maybe I should start planning getting a cd burner, but what the heck. Now I plan to keep my computer simple and error free. Haaha as if I could. Well it was a good time to change, forcing me to delete the songs which most of them I dun hear, delete the games which i was sick of but couldnt bear to delete, and everything as such. Sometimes its really hard to let go, especially when its been a long time and feelings grow. HAhah just like I will not do spring cleaning and throw my stuff every year if I could. Oh yah, xabi alonso will miss the next match, I wonder if we will do well against Chelsea. I guess the whole world will lend liverpool the strength as we all hate chelsea. Don,t we?

Unemployed... Urm I mean self employed... - 10:07 PM
Well todae is the official dae where I finally end my enitre school life. No more exams, no more school. TO alot this may sounds really good, at least to those still studying. BUT let me tell you, I am not that happy. First of all, my last paper todae kinda sux. But since that is over, I shall not talk about it. Secondly, I am now offically unemployed, or should I say self employed like my friend angie claimed. Hahah. Anyway more importantly, no more 3 dae week, no more going to school and work for 2 hours or waking up late. No more presentations that you can screw up, or no more lessons where you can sleep. No more daes where you can choose not to go to work when you feel like it, or when you wake up to a rainy dae that feels so good to sleep. No more long school holidaes for you, simply no more of slack things. Being a slack student, School life was indeed very fun for me. No such things call pressure, no such things called tough or tiring. Well time to say good bye to such a good life, and on to a life we we pursue money! Haha.I guess I will wake up tomorrow not knowing what to do, with no objective. I think I need to clearly understand about what my future lies for me....

Well done Liverpool! - 9:31 AM
Liverpool have deservedly clinched a place in the last four of the Champions League after heroically holding Juventus to a goalless draw on a memorable night in Turin.In a game of nail-biting tension the Reds produced an impressively disciplined performance to shut out their hosts and preserve their 2-1 first leg advantage. At times it was backs to the wall stuff but Rafa's men passed the ball with precision and defended resolutely to set up a mouth-watering semi-final clash with Chelsea.
In a first half of few goalscoring opportunities the best chance fell to Zlatan Ibrahimovic after just eight minutes but thankfully he fired over from a central position six-yards from goal. When in possession Liverpool looked comfortable all night and after going in at the interval with their heads held high they came out after the break and almost snatched the lead through Baros. Latching on to a perfectly threaded through ball from Alonso the Czech striker got goal side of the Juve defence but with only the keeper to beat agonisingly rolled his shot wide of the post. At the opposite end Dudek saved superbly from an Emerson header, with was the home sides first effort on target. As the minutes ticked by the nerves became more and more frayed and Liverpool survived a major scare when Traore headed against his own post following a Juventus free-kick.
It was not all one way traffic though and with Cisse completing his amazing recovery from a broken leg by replacing Baros late in the second half the Reds continued to pose a threat on the counter-attack. Biscan headed over with seven minutes remaining but in the end it didn't matter. At the opposite end Juve couldn't find the key to unlock the Liverpool defence and the long-awaited final whistle was the signal for ecstatic scenes among the players and travelling fans.
This was an occasion to rank alongside any in this club's illustrious European history and every player in a red shirt deserves credit for the part they played in it.
Well done lads!

Truly an enjoyable night - 10:51 AM
Woah.. Yesterdae I had a very eventful dae. I met a sister nun from Philippines and I help her get around in NIE. Haha it was kinda nice to interact with someone from another country always. Maybe she will bless me for this exam which I din study much hoh?Another great thing that happen was the BnF gathering. Haha personally for me it’s the first time I went on such a big gathering out to town, having dinner and such. There was about 15 of us and its such an enjoyable night. Haha all of us din even care about the exams that are drawing near, and if any other people hears this, they must be thinking NBS students are really very slackers or relax people. Exam time still can go out! Hahaha was also shocked to see two of us getting attached and it really came as a surprise to us. Come to think of it, most of us yeaterdae present are already attached liao. Eleven out of fifteen, not a bad percentage afterall. I believe soon all of us will be attached by the next gathering? We ate at Swensen and as usual I was disappointed by them. The portion was so small that Joel, Weilun, Angeline and I have to share another earthquake. Haha but the earthquake was very nice. Haha when it comes to the billing part, its interesting to notice how 15 banking students have problems counting such a small amount of money. Weilun say it because we are used to count millions of dollars. How true…
And we played very interesting games (which I mnever learn b4) while drinking at this nice place, though a bit squeezy. Hahah then I realize WeiLun gets drunk very easily and it was fun to see Shixing drink so much beside me. Those big fish small fish and 007 games are quite fun actually, My drink called the Alley Bliss is the nicest sweetest beer I ever had in my entire life! Sad that I have to leave early, but last night…. Truly an enjoyable night!
Wonderful us...

Great victory, lousy convo date... - 11:00 AM
Haha I am in such a good mood todae as I woke up to watch one of Liverpool’s best first half performances (2nd half was a bit disappointing). Nevertheless, I am happy that we got a slender lead over Juventus, a team I respect a lot, in particular its star player Nedved. Hooray Liverpool! Ok, but I just remembered that my NBS convo is on such a lousy date! Lousy timing as well, imagine 6pm at night! Sigh, a lot of my friends outside NBS won’t be there cause there will be COR. Even my girlfriend won’t be able to attend because she will be in Shanghai for GIP. Kinda disappointed at first because it’s really a dae I have been waiting for and hoping to share with people I care about. Well anyway it will be ok because I understand everyone’s reason. I am sure it will still be a very happy occasion and the ceremony is just a formality. Might wana bring my mp3 player there since I might be sitting beside someone I totally down know while the ceremony is going on. Hope they dun have those sneaky cameras zooming onto people sitting in there shown on big screen. Hahaha.

Baby Giselle - 11:47 PM
My god sis's baby is already 2 months old liao. Time really flies since I was still like so excited over someone born that has some sort of a much closer connection to me since I treat my god sis as my kin.Baby Giselle
As the exams pull nearer, my mood gets more heavy. But in particular, this sem I am not that worried at all. Went for a stupid Maersk talk and test that dae, felt it was pretty boring. The people there looked as though we owed them money, and makes me wonder if the MISE program is worth it or not? However my invested time was rewarded with occasional laughter at silly jokes and some guy asking them to turn the air con down. We also have another guy running away up the stairs like some kinda of thief. Whats funny is that these are NUS or SMU students, which really question me that are NTU really that unhip? Hahah I think at least we won't do such things. But I have to applaud these 2 gentleman for their "kind guestures" of bringing me joy on a boring afternoon.
