once again, it's been a week since i've last blogged. hmm...

well, it has been a stressful and busy wk. i had tests... quite a few, which i dun think i prepared well enough. sigh, i'm tired too, having reaching home at earliest 8pm everyday.
went to NTU, and dr lee told me that his friend passed away recently. i asked a little more, and he revealed that it's the just-married couple who perished in a car crash in Perth! whoa... it's quite a coincidence. the point is that, sometimes, you really do regret not having spent more time with a person, only AFTER he or she is gone.

my bandmate in chinese high, arthur chen, must have suffered a lot of emotional trauma when her mum passed away in a freak accident during CNY. what happened was that her mum got down the car when the father stopped the car on the expressway. she wanted to go to the boot to check whether they brought the passports. it was that moment, when a car came crashing towards their car, with a mum in between them. i also read the article and i would never have thought that it was arthur's mum.

on another occasion, i went home after school and purposely made a detour to buy the day's edition of xin ming ri bao. i really wanted to read the article on the death of my band senior, Raymond. i remembered while i was at school, suddenly the school called for all band members to go to the lecture theatre. i went there only to see downcast faces of my seniors. i approached one, totally oblivous of raymond's death. the senior only muttered, Raymond jumped last night. i was really shocked. we could have prevented that from happening, since we already noticed that he was acting strangely last week. the article revealed that raymond may be experiencing depression when he finally jumped off from his window that fateful night.

our lives seems to be just like a ship. your new friends thatyou've made would board the ship, whereas others would alight when their time is up. only when they alight do you realise their absence.

pls cherish everyone around you. pls do.

so i shall write a short blog...

today had bio SPA, heng can finish on time.
had band today afternn, audition for teachers day concert, which is going to be held on 31 Aug. we played "It's a Small World" haha... wonder if it's good? there's a portion where the band has to sing the tune. quite lame haha, but hopefully can engage the audience la.
after band, went near to Zen Garden and met qukui, vanessa and biondi. then later pq vanessa and i went to indulge in ice-cream somewhere at Serene Centre. And we talked a lot... A LOT. from 7pm till almost 10 pm lehz...
then i got back home. phew, almost missed my stop sia. then i ate my late dinner - beehoon, while being engrossed in a documentary on pregnancy. so amazing, the show is excellent. it follows the development of the baby, from a zygote to embryo to foetus, and 36 wks later, a full-grown baby. amazing...

oops, almost forgot to blog again. it's almost a wk! haha.

lemme first talk about my class BBQ party last night. ooh, i really love it.
u see, many of my close classmates came. we all went to haotian's new house, juz a short walk from Aljunied MRT. cool condo sia. apparently, his parents are away overseas for 4 wks, and poor hao tian would have to survive on his own. so after band ended pretty early at 6pm, a group of us left for haotian's house. adam was already there starting the fire - and he was really good at it too. first time bbq so successful, cos the charcoal burn like siao. haha. thx adam, ur 4 years as a boy scout helped alot *winks*. ok, so we ate sausages... chicken wings... sotong balls... marshmellow... fruit punch with kaishyang's bracers... and ribena. it was really enjoyable, cos it wasnt a big group, only abt 11. so we bbq-ed, sat, chat and sang. we sang many songs la, with nicholas' guitar accompaniment. it was already 10:30 when we went back up to haotian's house. ppl began leaving, then only vanessa and i got stranded in haotian's house. then we watched Wife Swap and saw a lesbian couple on TV. oops. finally haotian and adam got back and vanessa and i left at abt 11:45pm. i was worried that the last train had left. in the end, it was true argh... so had to get on a taxi lor...

then today, i went to yewtee industrial park to check out my mum's stall. business not that good, cos it's a saturday [hopefully thats the reason]. so i stayed on for the whole afternoon, selling buns and beehoon. all the customers are workers in the industrial area la...
