the grand ejection
hello everyone.. happy new year.. 20+ days late. london has been great. i'm having the time of my life here. and to top it all, i had my first 'career' basketball ejection last night for getting two technical fouls. thanks ho wee. wahahha.. well, the story starts like this yea:

"the night was cold. i almost had hamstring cramps for both legs even before the game started. the opponent was great. played great defense and offense. they were so good that i was well pissed. everytime i carried the ball on offense, the defender was on me, tight and rough. third quarter action, i was dribbling the ball and the defender stole the ball from me. he ran for the fast break. i ran back for defense quickly. he was laying up in the air and i gave him a rugby tackle with my shoulder and he flew down hard to the ground. louis vuitton handbags i went to apologise, but he just slapped the hand i offered and said," whatever.." i was pissed as well and when he turned his back on me, i gave him the middle finger. the coach calls me to the bench. i was thinking he wanted to cool me down. to my greatset shock, i find that i got a double technical and got ejected!"

nice story yea? i know.. i'm a bad-boy! hahahah.. anyways, there's a game again tomorrow and my coach tells me to behave at my best. so embarrassed.. anyways, i'll leave you guys with a couple of nice pictures. gong xi fa cai everyone...

New beginning
Wow, 2006 huh….. a very new beginning life for me cos sumone is not ard us anymore, my 103 yrs old grandpa jus passed away on the 2nd of this month. Tats y I went missing these few weeks and cant reply the EMAIL for u ppl, im so soree. My whole family didn’t go home for the first two weeks and kept busy-ing during those days at my grandma’s hse. chanel handbags And im so surprise to see so many traffic policemen helps to open the traffic and follow the front and back of our bus during the funeral day. I missed first two days of school. Then 2nd week busy wif catching up of notes, classwork, homework and etc. (but didn’t finish my maths homework yet till now). Bopian, I hav four periods of maths per day (two days in a week only hav two periods lo) and bcos of dentist appointment.

Besides busy-ing wif those , my dentist appointment suddenly kept fluxing in my life. So far, I had removed four tooth within these few weeks. Next week, on 25th, I will hav my braces on. Whee~~

Temburong
Haha, its not that Boon Jing didn't wana update abt Temburong, its cuz we hadn't gone yet at that time... we just came back from Temburong. It was a great great experience to start with. I dont have any pictures, so this is gona b a dull all writing post... Boon Jing will post the pics later.

First of all.. this temburong trip was NOTHING like the old trip. This trip is alot more tiring, challenging, more dangerous and adventurous. I'll try to make it as short as possible.

Day 1, we went to jetty and around 7.30 left for temburong. Practically nothing much happened during the 1st day... We sorted all the equipment, bags, etc. We had a few activities and games... with discussions at the end of each.. it was fun learning through experience. We also had a practice on what we shud do in the river in case we fall off the boat etc. replica watches That night we slept at a wooden house near the forest. We slept quite late cuz we were busy packing stuffs for the jungle trekking and camping. Then, there was a fire drill at around 12am... every1 was still awake. It rained soon after that, when almost every1 was already sleeping.

Day 2, (the most challenging day of all) woke up around 5am.. arranged our stuffs.. etc.. and assembled at the logistics centre around 6am to get ready for the forest trekking. Had a short jog to warm up, re-packed the food etc, and brought the other equipments, such as camps, pumps, etc. By 8.00am, we were all wearing our heavy rugsacks and carrying the heavy equipments. By 8.30 we set off for the jungle trekking to get to the campsite, unexpecting what was truly ahead of us. A gruelling 7+ hours of climbing up steep slippery muddy slopes, as well as going down them... There were narrow dangerous pathways, with steeps slopes on each side. And if that wasn't enough, there were the red ants.. bees, thorns and so on. We reached the campsite at around 5pm, where it was already raining and despite the fatigue, we had to quickly set up our camps. We took a cool refreshing bath at the river nearby while some of us cooked dinner. By 8, we went back to our camps, where some of us slept almost immediately while others chatted at the camp fire till almost the next morning.

Day 3, woke up at 6, packed our stuffs, assembled at the river by around 8am.. the speed boat transported our rugsacks and equipment etc, while got ourselves ready for kayaking. It was truly fun, bt it wasn't as easy as it seemed. We got our instructions and a few minutes of practice and soon we set off. We reached the logistics centre by 11.30am if i'm not mistaken via the river. We started cleaning the equipment etc issued to us and by 1pm had our lunch. then we packed our stuffs, took our shower etc and went back to bangar via bus. Left Bangar jetty at 4 and reached bsb by 5pm.

Overall the trip was great, and I would recommend it to anyone who loves challenge. I would say that.. this course truly showed me what I am capable of and taught me many valuable lessons. It was a different experience to each of us, since we fear different things, view things in a different perspective, differ in personality etc..

Personally, I'd like to thank every1, especially Boon Jing and Howee, and the teachers for their patience, support and understanding. I had a very hard time, and i mean VERY hard time, during the jungle trekking and had to walk relli slow and be extra extra careful at the hills and narrow paths since I was wearing basketball shoes.. how dumb.. so the ground was extra slippery for me and if i were to slip and fall there, it would probrably mean bye bye. There were many times where many of us felt like giving up, due to the fatigue setting in, and with your teammates complaining and knowing that we arent even close to our destination yet, wasn't exactly helping with the team's morale. However, despite the fear, troubles, obstructions, etc, we all made it... and with that.. congratulations to every1.. this will truly b an experience we will never forget

Where has everyone gone?!?! It has been a very long time since the last post. I can imagine Jances snickering - Look who's talking!! Well, I guess everyone's busy since school just started. It has been a week since school started for me. Surprisingly, the week has passed by so swiftly. Im starting to miss my aunt's cooking *sigh*
I'm feeling so exhausted today. Completely depleted of energy. I just want a few more hours in bed. Is that too much to ask for?!?! Yesterday, I went on a Duke of Edinburgh Expedition to Shorpshire. Now I'm wondering what Ive gotten myself into. For DOE, we need to go on training expeditions to prepare for the real thing, which means spending 3 days and 2 days in the middle of no where. In addition to that, we have to do 6 months of service , 12 months of skills and 12 months of physical recreation.
Doing service, skills and physical recreation isn't much of a hassle but I just loathe going on training expeditions. Hey, dont get me wrong. I love nature but when it comes to experiencing it first hand - it can get a little bit too scary. I dont know if I've jinxed it but everytime I go on a training expedition, I always trip. Always!! WHY? The first time I went, I slipped and landed on my butt. The second time I went - I slipped again and hurt my knee. But honestly, I guess it isnt that bad.
For the past few days Ive been addicted to Hana Yori Dango. [ Thanks to Sharon =) ]It's actually the Japanese version of Meteor Garden. I know! I know! But it's actually pretty good. It's actually much better than the Taiwanese version since the guys in Hana Yori Dango can act. Oh gosh, the Japanese actors who play F4 are just hot. Hua Zhe Lei is definitely the cutest. Haha. chanel handbags Sharon strongly disagrees because she thinks Dao Ming Shi looks so much better - well, I guess she does have her valid points. Ohh, Jances, the guy who plays Hua Zhe Lei reminds me of 'Chester' Haha. Im suppose to be preparing for my mocks but I just cant stop watching it. Thank God there are only 9 episodes so far because it just aired in Japan not too long ago.
Alright, I'll stop here. Maybe we should start fining people who dont update. Haha.

Bye bye Brunei again =/
It’s been 3 weeks back in Brunei. Just want to thank all those ppl who made my holiday here extremely eventful. It’ll be a long 6 months again till I’ll be back.

I’ll be leaving the comforts of a variety of TV channels, warmth, CARS, a maid and lots……..and of course the special Ppl here! I’ll be going back into the arms of dry weather, ultra cold, exams, studying, laundry and also ‘everything also very expensive la’.

Can I just have a permanent holiday with endless supply of money?

Some ppl blogged about how 2005 has been a year for them and what their resolutions for the new year are. Well for the latter, I don’t really bother trying to make any because I find it pointless as I don’t exactly keep to it. However, 2005 has really been a whirlwind of ups and downs for me. Events forever plastered into the memory chip of my brain. I’m thankful for the lessons learnt but also sorry for the regrets and wrong things I did.

Btw, I find this horoscope prediction quite true as to my personality.

Libra (sep 23 - oct 23)Your inability to reach a decision in matters of personal action islegendary. you like to weigh all the alternatives and hear every side of an argument - but this may take time and opportunities may pass you by because of it. you also like to expand energy on people who may not deserve it - you want to help the underdog. chanel handbgs you are also sensitive to criticism and may take mild statements of fact very personally.AdviceFollow your instincts and act on them - stop sitting on fences. don'tblindly trust people; learn to be a little more discriminating in youroffers of help. learn to think for yourself and don't be swayed bypersuasive tongues.

I’ll leave you guys with a few pictures then.
