i feel disgusted. after seeing how someone's MSN nick has changed over the past couple of days, i really am. i don't know how to explain it. it feels like you're talking to some xiao mei mei (xmm) on the instant messaging service. like she's trying to act cute by typing in such a manner that may attract other guys but definitely not me. aiya, fuck, why am i even bothering.

our class just got awesome news that productivity-man won't be our mechanics 2 + class tutor! it's still gonna remain as kapotine (spell check?), so yes, same old, same old. you should have seen our reaction when we got the call from kapotine - epic and thoroughly emotional. lol.

so here's the long-but-still-quite-short story: kapotine called john a few days back, informing us that mr. productivity was gonna be our new mech 2 + class tutor. upon hearing the news, we were horrified. we were frustrated. we were... just feeling oh-so-shitty (shan't elaborate on the reasons). but just today, wonderful news came in! that the change was cancelled! we literally jumped for joy and screamed our hearts out. it was such a refresher, i thought i could have gone on and on for another several hours of CEM, LOL.

26October2008; The day the Fortress fell.

LIVERPOOL HAS DONE IT! TODAY IS THE DAY THE HOME RECORD OF STAMFORD BRIDGE IS BROKEN!
Score at full-time: Liverpool 1 - 0 Chelsea

WOOOOTSSS!!! This is fucking solid proof to those naysayers who say Liverpool needs Torres to win. Blahblahblah. We may love the El Nino, but it doesn't necessarily mean we need him to win. Oh and did I forget to mention, we had more chances than Chelsea? Hahaha.
Okay, enough of celebrations, I thought Chelsea put up a great fight as well and Alonso's goal had a little bit of luck behind it. BUT WHO CARES LOL. The result is all that matters.

Okay after watching that exhilarating match, I REALLY feel like playing field soccer. Crappp.

Didn't have the usual street soccer session in the morning, and I'm DYING to seriously kick some balls and score some goals.

Liverpool just made an absolutely thrilling comeback AGAIN earlier on against Wigan. The match nearly gave Liverpool's fans a heart-attack I swear, especially after watching Zaki take the lead for Wigan twice in that game. Great match really.

My legs are itching. In fact, they always do, after watching soccer matches. So yeah obviously they're itching for some action on the field. I wonder when's the next time I can kick on a pitch instead of on the court, but it's just too hard to make the numbers.
I'm also itching to play at NYP again. It's hockey pitch can be summed up with one word - shiok. But Imma try to bring my shoes the next time me and my friends do get to playing soccer there.

Watched "Max Payne" yesterday. Crappy movie. It was a waste of money and time. The plot had so many loopholes and several questions were left unanswered after the show finished. There were too many climaxes during the course of the movie, and any one of them could have qualified as an finale to the entire show itself, but then a twist occurs out of the blue, and I was thrown back into the story, confused.
Overall rating: 2/5 (a little credit for some amazing CG incorporated and a good setting)

ohh ohh, i'm not dead yet. not really ready to give in to my reluctance to blog, lol.

first week of school... has been rather, interesting and funny. i can't really count the number of times my funny bone was tickled so far.
i shall not elaborate on how one of my lecturers mispronounced my friend's name so that it sounded like buttocks in hokkien - kah chng.

i just saw a thread in the backyard asking if singapore's standard of education is dropping or not. well looking and comparing between some really old past year papers from TYS books for both the 'O' and 'A' Levels and present papers, i would say yes, but only to the extent of the standard of the exam papers. however, it's not really a similar case when it concerns content.

sometimes i look back at myself during the secondary school years, and realised how carefree and relaxed i was back then. looking at my younger brother now, the differences are rather vast. the amount of information in the textbook (especially science subjects) is so much that i don't think i could have been able to meet expectations placed by my parents upon me. yes, papers may "seem" easier to do and score, but after being "forced" (unless you don't feel like scoring well for your exams :x) to memorise all the definitions, formula, explanations, etc., coping with the overwhelming content from textbooks, notes, and such can prove to be an uphill task.

shit la, my sentence structure in this post is all wrong and my choice of words is... horrible. Lol.
