Home Sweet Home!
After 2 long weeks, I'm finally back home again! Hmmm, it seems like I keep having holidays, but somehow I have this feeling that it has been a long time since I came home LOL.

Slumdog Millionaire
Watched the movie with Choon Pei, Jian Wei, Jia Wei, and Shu Fang today. Quite a nice movie, it actually tells us a lot about the reality of life, and how people go to large extents to achieve something.Particularly I'm touched at how Salim sacrificed himself for the happiness of his brother Jamal... Wonder whether I'll be able to do that for my brother lol...
Anyway, someone commented that my blog is becoming more and more lamenting. Well, I'm not exactly lamenting, more like I'm trying to stop and look at the world in the midst of all the projects and mugging to be done. Things like this teach us to appreciate our surroundings and people around us more.
Overall, the movie is a must watch if you like educational movies :P (minus off the romance part though)

Funeral
It appears that someone passed away recently, hence the funeral below my block.
Sometimes I wonder why do people have funeral, and I came up with the following reasons:
1. Give tribute to the deceased, who left memories to those who he/she left behind.
2. Give relatives/friends a last chance to see the deceased.
3. Will be branded unfilial if do not do so (I think those that do this are just hypocrites...).
Well, can't think of any more for now. Don't get me wrong here, I'm not saying that we should not do so. Memories are beautiful, even if they contain those sad times. What I'm driving at is we should cherish our loved ones when they're around, not when they're not.
1 thing that I noticed when I went to buy my dinner just now, they do dinner catering for their funerals..... Maybe it's a whole package. Well, who knows....

Manual Labour
It has been a loooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggg time since I did any manual work. Well, it kinda make me think about the good old days in council, and my fellow councilors :) You all know who you are :P I know it's kinda late now, but let me say this. Thank you to each and everyone of you who left me such good memories, be it arranging chairs, clearing classroom under 1 minute, DOTA sessions, Open House, banner painting, cheering for school team and everything else.
P.S. Good old days never remain, but good old friends are forever :)

10000 Visits!
Oh finally my blog reached 10k viewership =P
Super long never update le lol. Time for me to do something before mid-term break.
Went out with Choon Pei, Seng Han, and Alvin for steamboat buffet at Bugis last Saturday. It's supposed to be a friendship day :P Now that I remembered, we forgot to take picture.... Anyway, my wallet kinda bled before and after that...
Jia Wei joined us after the steamboat and we went to Bugis Junction to play the basketball game (dunno what it is called though). Seng Han and Jia Wei super zai la, me and Alvin cannot even catch up to their score...
Today's Japan and Singapore was like so fun! To think that a museum trip discussion can be so interesting and illuminating... Now I know how countries manipulate their histories, and how nation building means that some of the history should be covered. I fully understand why some country try to glorify their past acts; so that their new generations won't live in shame of their own history. Well, we should be looking forward. We study about history to make sure we don't go down the exact same path of destruction, aren't we?

Weird
I had this super weird dream yesterday.. totally random and cannot understand haha.
Venue: My super old house at 36 Jalan Raja Endut
Forgot the front part liao, I only remember that my neighbour's son is getting married, so we go and help out on the setting up of the "kenduri area"
Into the evening, somehow my neighbour and his son sits in a Proton Wira trying to drive the car up another face to face. Ended up in a loud bang. I went out to see what's happening and the other car's front part got smashed up. (Apparently the other car is theirs too). My father and I helped them to clear up the mess and ushered them back into their house to wait for the following day's wedding.
I realised my house and their house got a door right beside the main entrance that connects to each other (Don't ask me why. It's a dream). Anyway, as I was standing in front of their house's gate, I saw a guy riding a motorbike slowing down his vehicle when he got near to my house. He's flashing his signal in the opposite direction so I was thinking,"what's this stupid guy trying to do."
Out of nowhere, the guy flashed out a shotgun and shoot at me. I managed to dodge the first shot and shouted "Gunner!" That guy directed me to shut up but I continued to shout. Hence, he fired a second shot at me while I'm frantically running for my house and missed.
When I went into my house, I quickly find a hiding place. I ended up hiding below my sink in the kitchen with lots of those tau huay plastic containers stacked up together on top of me to camouflage me. The gunner came into my house trying to look for me but my father asked him to calm down. He came to the kitchen but didn't find me. Noticing the backdoor, he dashed out trying to chase me, leaving his 2 companions behind ( I didn't notice when the other 2 guys came in).
After he left, I slowly rise from my location, wanted to free my family from the other 2 gunners. I walked towards the dining hall. One of the gunner spotted me, the gunner (who is a super old ah pek) fired at me with an AK47 but dodged his shots by moving in lightning speed. In the end, I defeated him with a single karate chop.
The second gunner came in the shoots at me (forgot using what liao). I defeated him too (forgot how though). Strangely, the initial gunner didn't return. That's the end of the dream... pretty random...
P.S. Pardon me for the primary kid style english... must be the morning air and my state of half-awake.
