i didnt plan to update my blog but here i am so i'll just wing it as i go....

anyway on Friday the 24th of October, it was SSP's most highly anticipated event of the year.... The Graduation Prom... so yeah i'll just walk you through the whole day.....

i woke up very early in the morning and had my breakfast... got myself ready and went to pick up Mabel, Malcolm, and Matthew.... they were gonna go play tennis... well i wanted to decorate my masquerade mask and i needed Mab's help so i had to be there...

so after my mask was done i rushed down to the library to pick Shu Lynn up.... took her to the beach... it was kinda just to kill time.... i got a little too close to a jellyfish... luckily i spotted it soon enough to move away... anyway after the beach we went to Gurney.... watched HSM3 : Senior Year.... the movie was great and the songs were good but i dont like the fact that every song they sang ends with them on stage.... i mean isnt a musical supposed to be like natural? like a person actually talking but instead they put it into a song? anyway overall that show was great...

anyway after all that, i dropped Shu Lynn home and went home myself.... took a long bath and got all my clothes ready.... got dressed for the prize presentation and left my house for G Hotel... i wore black jeans, black shirt, brown tie, and canvas shoes........ anyway when i arrived i bumped into Alex, Johnny, and Cze Yang..... we made our way to the ballroom and got there just in time for the ceremony......

when the ceremony ended, Mabel, Honey, Vivonne and myself rushed to Honey's house to change into our dinner clothes..... i was once again the driver... lol.... we managed to get back to G Hotel in time for Mab's speech... i wont go into detail or else this post will never end...

we had fun during the dinner... there were bad performances and i thought i lost my sense of hearing but other than that, it was a near perfect night..... we took pictures after the dinner and chat and not long after, it was already almost 12am....

the prom photos are all in my Facebook and my friends' and to those who dont have Facebook, GET IT!!

ok now to some sensitive issues....... i do not wanna mention it here but i was forced to by someone who is currently cramping her Science for tomorrow's paper.... i gained weight... AHAHAHA... what you think it would be very deep?? guess again... but yea i have gained weight... and from what i'm getting from her, its alot of weight... i beg to differ.... anyway i do know i gained weight.... i havent been in competitive squash since June and i havent trained since August... the last time i held my racquet was in September.... i have pledged to do 50 sit-ups and push-ups every night before i sleep and try to wake up early on days i dont go to school and go for runs..... i need to do it...

its 13 days till SPM and i cant say i'm as panicked as i was on the final week building up to PMR.... but i'm close... i have conceded my History and Bio and currently trying to save my Chem and Add Maths..... i made a bet with a certain peaKOK that the one who doesnt get a minimum of 5 As will have to cut their hair... shave to chinese school lenght for guys, and cut short for girls.... i think i got 4 subjects covered but this 4 who doesnt right? Eng, BM, Maths, EST...... i'm trying to push my Physics, Moral and Add Maths to that level.... oh well....

i guess that's all for now.... i slept from 8pm till 1am just now and i think its time for me to go back to sleep.... signing out.......

Quick Update...

here's a quick post.. i'm just gonna crap here because i dont know what to talk about.. so here goes....

went to school today (wow how interesting =.=) a few of the guys turned up... now we all know why my classmates turn up on tuesdays.......... BADMINTON..... so we played doubles and singles and to everyone's surprise... TAY CZE YANG came to school... yea... anyway i played very badly today... frustrated my doubles partner alot... played singles with Cze Yang and actually WON... my back was hurting alot and i couldnt breathe after that though.....

after badminton, everyone just died... we just sit in class and do nothing.... Nic and I watched The Dark Knight on my iPod and Madam Chin nearly pissed me off..... again with the magazine stuff..... its like my face has "SCOLD ME ABOUT THE INCOMPLETE MAGAZINE" printed on my face...

came back home right after school and didnt do much since then... i'm waiting for my mum to call saying she is back in Penang... obviously i gotta go fetch her from the bus terminal.....

Manchester United play against Celtic tonight but i have no time to talk about that... someone is waiting for me to update...

finally seeing Shu Lynn again tomorrow since saturday... i know it doesnt seem like long but when you're me, it does feel that long.... i'm doing my chemistry notes now and it isnt easy because my tuition teacher is so particular.... i hope he doesnt read this.....

annual dinner is on friday and i finally picked what i'm going to wear..

Padini shirt and pants..

all i'm missing now is a belt and a white tie..... yea i've decided to wear a white tie.... i guess that's all for now.. seems like i said quite alot within these few minutes....... my time is up... there you go Shu Lynn... =)

1 day...... 1 month.......

its like a day before it'll be EXACTLY A MONTH BEFORE SPM...

anyway that isnt what i wanna talk about.. recently i've been having a little of what i like to call auto-fever... i have this obsession over cars.. i mean i dont know much about the complicating stuff but still interested.. i keep wanting to know about the latest cars and the ones in production and shit like that..

it took me 7 days before PMR to finally have my panic button activated and went on study mode but now its SPM and a month away and i'm still on CARS?? ok so it is what i wanna talk about.. sue me.. anyway, the last time (PMR), it took a precise lightning strike to fry only my CPU when all the sockets are connected to make me finally take my book seriously.. what now? i'm using this piece of shit of an ancient laptop and i'm still going? my desktop never came back from the ashes.. it stayed fried.. with good reason i suppose..

tuition for BM, Physics, Add Maths and Chemistry should do me some good but what about Bio? History? well i've decided i'm going to live with it and choose a path in live that doesnt require those subjects.. i mean, English, EST, BM, Maths, and a possible miracle for Add Maths, Physics, Chemistry and my average moral scoring would at least be of SOME use in the future right? i was considering choosing something that is accosiated to sports but i've been told it requires Bio.............. i'm dead.. i have thought about automotive engineering or whatever you call that but do i really wanna be a grease monkey my whole life?

anyway this post will make people go I TOLD YOU SO, IVAN... not that i dont deserve it but its too late now.. but what's more worrying is the fact that in 2 months time, me and all the other 5th formers will be thrown into a bigger battle.......... REALITY... i mean life is just begining.. schooling life is coming to an end and we're gonna be going to college and stuff and getting jobs..... does time really fly that fast? i still remember the day i walked into PFS as a form 1 and being afraid i cant fit in... i remember one day in standard 3 when i transfered to SKBG from a chinese school that i regretted going.. it all felt like just not long ago.. where did all that time go? it also felt like just last week when i was taking driving lessons and taking the JPJ test.. my childhood flew by so quickly.... and i can only think of a few exciting things that has happend till now..

how will being an adult feel like? i mean i'm like less than 3 years from turning 20.... TWENTY!! i better stop here before i start thinkin about when i turn 30........... 0.0

ivan..

it has been awhile....

yes i know it has been ages since i last did a proper post..

woke up fairly early for a sunday yesterday.... went to the temple to pray for the 9th lunar month.. the place was crowded, hot, smokey, and loud.. anyway after praying mum, dad and myself went for freakfast.. it was near the temple.. a roadside stall selling drinks and koay teow th'ng... the drinks were expensive.. it was most probably because the drinks dude saw us come in a Harrier.. because every other person was served in smaller plastic cups but our's were huge glass mugs.. =.= speaking of taking advantage..

this ship was HAND MADE..

anyway, went to the Honda showroom after that.. dad wanted to test-drive the new Honda Accord but i was hoping he'd give the Honda Jazz a go.. unfortunately, there was only one salesman and he was busy confirming the sale of a Honda City to another family.. so we walked around and checked out the Jazz, Stream and City...

the test car.. i like this colour..

i would fancy having a car with this interior..

anyone knows where to find this kind of steering wheel? i wanna replace my car's wheel..

the Stream is pretty good looking too..

the interior aint too bad either..

oh i've also been looking for things to add or improve in my car.. things like my headlights, sound system, and possibly adding that what-ever-its-called that Dennis installed in his car for more power and fuel efficiency..

projector headlights.. cost about RM1000 but looks very nice..


the Sony Xplod player i'm planning to get..

well i dont wanna bore you people with more of this crap so i guess that's it..
