I've been watching Engine during my weekends. This Takuya-starring drama is really cool. Last night I viewed an episode that made me cried so badly. Haizz

The children in orphanage(run by takuya's father) had to leave because there have been some social problems caused by those kids.( Some rich O~basans abused their power and forced the orphanage to shut)

Takuya was assigned to send each of those kids away to their new homes and after last batch, one young boy came chasing the crappy bus Takuya was driving... Then... all the sad emotions took off. My idol Takuya cried and I cried too~~

From Takuya in that scene,
"But you guys are just kids!"
"When someone as old as me cries, it's very not cool. But you're just kids!"
"So isn't it normal to cry when ya feel like crying?"


Hmmm...Although this Engine was not about love and romance like the previous Pride drama Takuya did, the story was teary at that episode I watched last night. I believe the songs played in the sad scenes were well selected...

On the game run:
I secured my first FFXII esper, Giga the Belias ! It the equivalent of Ifrit in previous FF.
It was shocking the other day in maple because that Shanghai quest gave me a Steely~~ I have always wanted one and thought maybe the most likely way was the Red Drakes dropping one. But whatever, it made my day !
Oh, im stopping maple awhile for good. Im starting to realise there is no end to this game. it's just blindly killing monsters all the way.
Im now playing CnC Tiberium wars and Heroes of Might n Magic V. I played the latter halfway and i think my studies needed more attention then haha...so nv play anymore

Life and tech:
Right now im into 4 weeks of sergeant training and echo coy rock big time. Real big, I say again. But wtf I gotta do a 1000 word essay about the army. i'll be fine.

For the Youtube fans, I've found a way to save the videos on site to your own computer as a normal MPG file. I've hunted down some super cool Pride fan videos and ya, im still trying to find where to buy the 2004 Japan's top tv drama. If you have the drama or heard wind of where to get it, kindly ring me !

wah sian...ytd i started maple 2x but then it lagged and now still lagged... i only managed to earn 60% exp and i dun think im playing maple anymore anytime soon. kinda waste of time... no ending to it and the community inside is childish and rude. Why do i have to face those unreasonable ppl? i'll stick to FFXII ( getting my first esper aka GF soon) and C&C first decade.

Hihi ppl ! Here's a quick summary on what I did in army. Main highlight was the race day selection. That day we were getting ready to do morning run. Then the bigshot commander asked who are the selected sprinters or whoever wanted to participate. A few stood up. Then I thought for a while and stood up and signed up as well ! About 21 of us did some running tests and a 300m time trial in a form of relay race with 2 teams head-to-head. The new encik* was in our shortnumbered team. My team's first man was the fastest in the trial, also previously the best 2.4km runner with a timing of 8min57s. He ran a staggering 44secs for the 300m.

I was like the 4th out of 11 runners in line for the race. On my 300m run, the guy who is with me on the other team started off first coz his partner came back earlier. But I chased him until I was just a neck behind him =) !!!!! I bettered his 50 secs with my 48.1 secs. Then back to the bunk my mates were saying I was very fast ! The whole company of 200 ppl were watching our 300m trial by the side grass patch back then. Inside my heart of course I'm elated, because I hardly get praised for my track and field stuff. But nonetheless I told them it's that other guy who is slow, tt's why relatively I seemed like lightning.

Essentially, there's a grenade outfield course that we went. I koked up quite badly but then not injured or kena detention punishment wadsoeva la. Had to pump 20 though haha. I was too headstrong, never wanting to admit my mistake lor...tt's why kena pump'ed. Overall, there was a 3-stage circuit we need to go through. That one I did really fine. muddy bloody. Really ! That was the dirtiest day we had in 3 weeks. Kk, I go train up my maple abit.

Anything, U are warmly welcomed to sms me as I can do good with some "message received" on my phone while I'm in army! Yeah.


*Encik= Big commander aka warrant officer.
Leopard company WOOOOSHH ~~ roCk on ~!

Hi everyone I'm back from2 weeks of army. It's really hell in there for me because i'm down with phlegm in my nose and caught a sore throat in the middle of this 2 week confinement period. It's really hectic in there. The kaopei commanders that i got didn't really helped much in fact. I'll try to focus on the days ahead and not them. Wah now I feel like shit. Lots of phlegm stuck in my nose. I can't breathe through my nose, my tongue can't taste anything. and my right hand feels abit of numb all the time. During the full gear march, my arm went so numb that the fingers are dead cold ! I had to keep squeezing my fist to keep it alive. It sucks really. Big timE ! I hope I will be in 1 good piece when i complete my 9 week BMT.

Merry Xmas ppl. I thank God for so many friends I have today !

DAY 1

So I got up at 5.45am and waited for bus 99 for like 15mins from 6.30 to 6.45. Finian sms-ed at 6.25am and told me he was there liao. Then he got so worried over the phone and smses bcoz he cannot find that agency which we needed to register in. Then got onto the coach.

And... we saw Mr Chan mali chan outside e right side of e bus n walking towards us. Finian went like crazy (and all of us did) and got off the bus to talk to him. He came back up and told us Mr Chan was going to Genting First World Hotel aka FWH as well ! At the customs we were pecking out our heads for the Chan couples and they were behind us. After that... we didn't see them at all le...

On one of the stop-overs, me n finian ate chicken rice. It's plainly salted chicken and some rice. I think the most interesting thing on the bus trip there was finian struggling to hold his bladder. We were half-way on the Genting hill already and finian kept asking me how long more. Asked me to just find some spot outside the bus later when we reached and he'll just pee lolx. Said he drank too much water to counter the salt from the chick rice.
Still he rushed to the toilet in the end la. Finian is super dramatic one. read more and u'll know wad i mean.

We went back hotel to rest abit. And walked around to check out some shops and ate some noodles at a store(i went before previously). I forgot how bad the food was !!! Felt so sorry lol... really bad food. tasted bad and weird.

NIGHT 1
I don't really recall much on the first day at around evening times.
We bought tickets for Dejavu. 1.30am. Jerry Bruckheimer as producer. he's the man who brought you Pirates 1 and 2 and amazing race. Denzel Washington. Black actor who acts passionately and truly for his roles in past movies as I recalled. need i say more?
It's a good movie. Happy ending. Superb and intelligent mixing of sci-fi into reality. Not overly grossed alien tech. realistic yet unbelievable. Really good role act from Denzel !!!! I'm swept off.

Basically the remaining time before the movie me and finian were zzz-ing in the room while waiting for e girls to buy a pizza back for us. Hawaiian pizza from pizza hut is e best pizza ever.
Sh!t I forgot there was CHELSEA VS ARSENAL match on tt night. 11.55pm. We were walking to e cinemas and past a really big screen and it's showing that match live !!! KAO! Luckily it was a draw. GOGO MAN U!

WoOt! I'm back from Genting ! I will give a full report on my 3D2N stay there, half-day by half-day. I know. I don't have to do this. But this is not only a blog tt ppl can know abt my life, but also my diary. So watch this space. I will leash out bit by bit.

hey 4e1 people. Remember that one time our english teacher Ms ??? commented aloud on my work? She said something like, "Jianchao, you can't describe people as a bunch. Not like a bunch of bananas" The class had a good laugh then i recalled.
But this issue came to my thoughts again when i saw the newspaper (STRAITS TIMES). The writer wrote "bunch of soldiers". So can't really blame me for not knowing it cannot be used this way, because writers do it ! I gave a similar argument to Ms ??? that time but she just chucked it away and said no no.
Ahh i also remembered Kimberly making a fool of me on that joke after that incident. She was merciless on hurting people... That's sort of her dark side lolx. Everything else about her is totally alright.

Sec 3 and 4 was I would say the most frenzied and souless period of my schooling years. Although not as stressed as JC or primary school, that 2 years were almost totally dedicated to studies. I tell you I never studied harder than then. that's why days passed like a raging river.

That was also the most confident I was with the classmates. Perhaps because I made many friends in the class and when I had a question, I could just throw in to any guy like Gary, Jiayi or even Sicheng and they will not dao me. Things were different in JC. If I talk to the front row boys, they will kind of give minimum effort to respond me. Worse still, some of them(FRB) think they're so cool and always want to make his words heard by everyone. Sometimes there will be like a deliberate " Ohhhh myyy GOd". I hated that ! In 4e1, nobody does that. Because the girls will not bother and the guys are very focused on their job at hand.

Enough said. I love my secondary school friends ! Who wants to go back Tanglin with me? I soooo want to try my hands on its black and sleek grand piano !

Only when you went through the game, will you feel the emotion of this music.
