gosh a lvls damn near le and i'm still damn scared of the gp paper... i cant take failing gp again...
YOU KNOW THAT YOU’RE A MAGICIAN WHEN...
You second deal when playing Uno.
The only unbent forks in your house are plastic.
You sneeze and immediately produce a Kleenex.
You get emotional when shuffling a new deck.
A Bike to you is a deck of cards
People stop lending you money, or borrowing it due to the fact you can never quite give it back to them
You can't go out in public without being asked to Levitate.
Everything you see makes you think of how to vanish, palm or produce it
You never throw old decks away because "I can make something out of it"
You decide what clothes to buy based on how many props you can carry
You watch intently whenever there's someone playing cards in a film, just to see if they're using a Bicycle deck
You take out a deck of cards and all your friends run out of the room, screaming.
You have more than a dozen open decks of cards and cartons of unopened ones.
You have 101 retorts for the question "How did you do that?"
You have a dog named "Houdini".
No one will play cards with you.
It matters to you how someone shuffles your deck.
When you play the game "cheat" YOU ACTUALLY CHEAT!
After viewing magic on TV, everyone in the room looks at you asks, "How'd they do that?" And, all you do is smile and say, "It's really easy if you think about it, but magicians cant tell." And you're really thinking "How the heck did they do that?"
Instead of asking someone for the time, you just steal their watch.
You post more videos of magicians than yourself on your blog (i came up with that) - and ya, in true shaun fashion, here's leaving you the ultra smooth dan and dave buck. =D in case you were wondering, yes they are twins. =D
Before i go on, here's elmo live on a tv show! He is sooooooooo cuteeeeeeeee!! =D
Anyway i went with the net to gelare for the first time of my life... actually i think me and chinyee still owe xian money for it!!! silly me keep forgetting to pay her arrgh... ps ps... a big THANK YOU to shen zhi for the pics (i stole them off her facebook) hehe... Nothing much to comment abt cuz i was in a whirl after taking a bus all the way to katong as tt day i was too sian to cycle...
Today dawn came home with this gigantic beautiful golden retriever. Apparently it was wondering around in the rain and jumped to hug dawn (who was carring her bag and guitar) when she asked it if it was lost. Up she brought it to our home and i gave it a huge container of water to drink. Doggie licked it up in seconds with its saliva flinging everywhere, on the floor, on my pants, everywhere. I went back inside the house to refill the water before mr doggie's thirst was quenched. Boy was he a happy dog, wagging its tail non-stop, even at the drain water beside the plants, splashing the dirty water all over me and dawn's faces. Muhahahaa! It was so so obedient, it would come to us and sit when we called it as it made us run after it around the neighbourhood. Lovely doggie!! Dawn so so wants her own dog even more now haha...
So we brought mr doggie back downstairs to find its owner around the vicinity but there was no1 shouting or looking for it. Since my mum's afraid of dogs, we could not let it stay overnight at our place. We walked the lovely boy to the police post to hand him over as a "lost item (or so the police report stated)". They could not send the doggie to HQ for the time being before the owner reported the missing doggie. Instead they called SPCA cuz the policemen on duty were all malays, who in case u didnt know, cannot touch dog's saliva. Poor doggie was so distressed when we went to say goodbye to it in the holding room at the police post. It forced its way out the door when dawn tried to exit, breakin off its chain as i tried to escort it back to the enclosed room... It was sad sad dog left all alone like some police suspect. i hope the owner quickly claims it! I wonder how mr dashing doggie is now with the other animals over at the SPCA... Here are some more pics and a video of it...

Oh ya here's an easier one i post on the right side of the page. =D Dont worry i meant to let u guys pass this one. =D
Had a crazy crazy day with my two gay pals in crime - tan boon boon and leong peng peng. We went to ikea/giant to study/makan... somehow we talk too much crap and distrub one another till our studying is not as productive as compared when i study wif the gals, who will scold me when i get distracted (which is abt every 30s).
We did our usual shouting in peng's the car, what for i cant remember but since boon refused to relinquish the front seat to me, i did my usual tickle attacks to him who was helpless in front hahaha... peng tot that it was very cool toswerve around the numerous bends entering into the carpark but then inside the carpark he turned so sharply that the van behind horned him haha... boy, buy an evolution then drift all u one, kenna horn by a van is simply too malu haha...
As usual i was playing around with my cards as we went up the escalator, doing lepaul spreads and springs. boon grabbed the whole deck and play play go fling one card, which flew past the escalator railing to the ground floor hahaha... stubborn boy insisted on going back downstairs to find the card while me and peng went to the bicycle section to look see look see...
so ya, the reason we went to giant was to whack sushi and we just happily took 3 stacks of sushi and a bottle of meiji milk. at the check out counter, me and peng confidently whipped out $10 notes to throw at boon, well... ... that was until we saw a shocking $49.20 on the display. LIKE EHHHHH... SIAO BO!!! Every1 was stunned but boon recovered the fastest and paid wif a $50 bill.
those two pampered kids refused to eat on the benches so we went to the food court beside giant to feast. Later we calculated it was about a $16 per person for our sushi fest! LIKE OH MY WE SHOULD HAVE GONE TO SAKAE. Peng bought 2 tubs of wasabi, which had oversized price stickers on them. one stuck onto the plastic bag, pulling the cover off as the wasabi flew to the floor in slow motion. if only i had that moment on camera... his facial expression was worth a million dollars. i never had such a funny sushi eating experience in my life cuz the 3 of us were daring each other to try bigger and bigger blobs of wasabi and laugh at the sufering of the others... boon, a non wasabi lover, once tio so bad that he stood up and walked abt to try to relieve the sensation. when he came back to sit down his eyes were about to tear. sieok ar! =D
Here's an old clip that just came to my mind when i was thinking of a funny video to share hehe... Here's the Bin Laden Bomb Song, animations by the brilliant albinoblacksheep team. Kids (yes u jamesy and sylvieyy) cover ur ears, imappropiate language... haha kiddin kiddin, but got some not so nice language so i thought i warned u guys first after hantam...
Lyrics Day-o! Daaa-yo! Daylight come, and we drop the bomb Pay -- we say pay, we say pay, we say pay, we say pay-o! Kick your ass, then we gonna come home
George Bush says that revenge come Daylight come, and we drop the bomb Load dem bombs til the morning come Airplane come and we drop the bomb
Come, Mr. Taliban, turn over bin Laden Colin Powell gonna bomb his home Come, Mr. Taliban, turn over bin Laden Payback come, and we drop the bomb
Lift one bomb, two bomb, three bomb, four! Payback come, and we drop the bomb Six bombs, seven bombs, hit the floor Cruise missile knocking at your door\
Oh ya, i finally found one pic of us doing retarded poses at the wedding!
here's a video i tot was quite funny and yet bad in a way... *psst* Its Paris Hilton boon your favourite! Oh ya the video is titled "Inaccuracies in the Paris Hilton Interview"
yup that is the cheat code for Microsoft's Age of the Empires, a popular strategy game in the early 90s, which is also the first computer game i ever played. But no, instead of the instant win u get when u type that code, i am in the opposite situation...
Gosh i hate studying to bits. Other than the fact that CCA stuffs and the lovely frens i made, JC is total shit. A slacker like me sure tio own. Do the stupid a level course 3 years still fail everything like what the... Go to sch also pointless if what the teachers say u cant follow... I force myself to study beyond what i can take le, the last 2 days i couldnt do anything cuz mentally and phsyically i cant push myself anymore. that's my limit. I dont ask for appreciation or encouragment, no need, just stop nagging at me to study. i hate it to bits and yet i still force. one's home is supposed to be a refuge where u can rest and separate yourself from life's crap but whenever i am at home, "study study study..." or "go and study" or "there is no time left go and study" etc etc. gosh study is a vulgar word.
I hate to be bossed around, to be told to do this and do that, basically treating me like a kid is the most sure fire way to get me really really pissed and earn my RESENTMENT. But also partially my fault cuz i dont communicate my displeasure and just take in whatever crap comes my way, just diam diam and like them lecture and nag and whatever. I am already giving more than my best le and if that is still not enuf for them so ya la whatever... Stop trying to change me, that is not what i need right now. Did anytime i got nagged at to study actually result in me going to my room sitting down guai guai take out my notes and do just that? Ya i know its a problem that i cant take being told how to behave but i have no idea what to do about that now...
Scolding me sure helps eh? Esp when i get repremanded irregardless of what i do, i study or dun study also get nagged or scolded... There just comes a certain time when no amount of "mothering" like how you would a kid will cease to be effective. I slack whole day at home, tio nag. I study the whole day outside and come home, also tio nag wheeeeeeeeeeee. well probably you can, but with great damage done. My hobbies are my means of escape from the shit of studying. And i dont recall being supported on to pursue what i love, its "dont yoyo anymore, go and study" or "stop downloading videos and get your priorities right". I tried to quit gaming, yoyo, magic and whatever. Yes sir ree i did. Whatever is left of my willpower is insufficient to simply stop doing the stuff i love if i am just gonna pursue something i hate without indulging in the stuffs that i really enjoy doing.
Shit a levels. i dont wanna go uni. yep u heard me i dont. esp if all i am gonna get is expectations and more expectations, told to behave in such and such a way. that is all i have to rant for now. gosh that felt so so good to let all that out, it sucks to keep that all inside for so so long. its been a long time since i acty ranted that much.
This are the moves i am gonna try to learn after my A levels... =D
Here's my church camp "run around like crazy to look for food" group... hooray for joan who sent me the pic! =D
Initially i was quite skeptical about this online personality test cuz i once did a similar one during Leadership Training Camp (LTC) that had a few hundred questions. This one only had 30 so i tot it would be wayyyy off... But hey, it was in sync with the detailed test i took! Of course this is just a general grouping and as individuals, no two are alike. I'll take the results with a pinch of salt. =D
You Are An ENFP (Extraverted iNtuitive Feeling Perceiving) - The Inspirer
(I'll bold the parts that i agree with hehe!)
As an ENFP, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you take things in primarily via your intuition. Your secondary mode is internal, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit in with your personal value system.
ENFPs are warm, enthusiastic people, typically very bright and full of potential. They live in the world of possibilities, and can become very passionate and excited about things. Their enthusiasm lends them the ability to inspire and motivate others, more so than we see in other types. They can talk their way in or out of anything. They love life, seeing it as a special gift, and strive to make the most out of it.
ENFPs have an unusually broad range of skills and talents. They are good at most things which interest them. Project-oriented, they may go through several different careers during their lifetime. To onlookers, the ENFP may seem directionless and without purpose, but ENFPs are actually quite consistent, in that they have a strong sense of values which they live with throughout their lives. Everything that they do must be in line with their values. An ENFP needs to feel that they are living their lives as their true Self, walking in step with what they believe is right.
An ENFP needs to focus on following through with their projects. This can be a problem area for some of these individuals. Unlike other Extraverted types, ENFPs need time alone to center themselves, and make sure they are moving in a direction which is in sync with their values. ENFPs who remain centered will usually be quite successful at their endeavors. Others may fall into the habit of dropping a project when they become excited about a new possibility, and thus they never achieve the great accomplishments which they are capable of achieving.
Most ENFPs have great people skills. They are genuinely warm and interested in people, and place great importance on their inter-personal relationships. ENFPs almost always have a strong need to be liked. Once an ENFP has learned to balance their need to be true to themselves with their need for acceptance, they excel at bringing out the best in others, and are typically well-liked. They have an exceptional ability to intuitively understand a person after a very short period of time, and use their intuition and flexibility to relate to others on their own level.
Because ENFPs live in the world of exciting possibilities, the details of everyday life are seen as trivial drudgery. They place no importance on detailed, maintenance-type tasks, and will frequently remain oblivous to these types of concerns. When they do have to perform these tasks, they do not enjoy themselves. This is a challenging area of life for most ENFPs, and can be frustrating for ENFP's family members.
An ENFP who has "gone wrong" may be quite manipulative - and very good it. The gift of gab which they are blessed with makes it naturally easy for them to get what they want. Most ENFPs will not abuse their abilities, because that would not jive with their value systems.
ENFPs sometimes make serious errors in judgment. They have an amazing ability to intuitively perceive the truth about a person or situation, but when they apply judgment to their perception, they may jump to the wrong conclusions. The strong sense of values will keep many ENFPs dedicated to their relationships. However, ENFPs like a little excitement in their lives, and are best matched with individuals who are comfortable with change and new experiences.
ENFPs are basically happy people. They may become unhappy when they are confined to strict schedules or mundane tasks. Consequently, ENFPs work best in situations where they have a lot of flexibility, and where they can work with people and ideas. Many go into business for themselves. They have the ability to be quite productive with little supervision, as long as they are excited about what they're doing.
They have a strong need to be independent, and resist being controlled or labelled. They need to maintain control over themselves, but they do not believe in controlling others. Their dislike of dependence and suppression extends to others as well as to themselves.
ENFPs are charming, ingenuous, risk-taking, sensitive, people-oriented individuals with capabilities ranging across a broad spectrum. They have many gifts which they will use to fulfill themselves and those near them, if they are able to remain centered and master the ability of following through.
Yay yay thanks to joan for the pics she sent to me! =D They are fresh from the email! First up, the youth at alvin and nicole's wedding... ps. xian do wear dresses more often! so nice can! me and dawn agree that u look very normal in it... =D
and the funny pic where every1 tries to look crazy...
And here's a video of thiam siong being owned by pastor jeremy during youth service quite some time ago... This too is stolen from Ee Ling who got it from Joan. =D
Hahaha this post consists of stuff ripped off from people's blogs so let's begin with a quiz result i did off David's months months ago but didnt post cuz i was so sian that i quit blogging then...
You scored as Education/Counseling, You should strongly consider majoring in Education, such as early childhood education, middle childhood education, secondary education, or related majors (e.g., Vocational Education, Special Education, P.E./Physical Education).
Consider adding a minor or double majoring to make yourself standout and to combine your interests. Psychology is a great minor for education majors.
when i saw this pic of yi ru on julia's blog... i found it so funny i could fall off my chair laughing BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA! I ALSO DUNNO Y I FIND IT FUNNY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... =D she is confirm plus chop gonna say i'm so mean again hahaha...
And a poem i tot was really really cool... I stole it from Ee Ling who in turn koped it from lynette... Its titled "I'm a Christian" by Maya Angelou.
When i say... "i am a Christian," i'm not shouting "i'm clean livin'." i'm whispering "i was lost, Now i'm found and forgiven."
When i say... "i am a Christian," i don't speak of this with pride. i'm confessing that i stumble, And i need Christ to be my guide.
When i say... "i am a Christian," i'm not trying to be strong. i'm professing that i'm weak, And need his strength to carry on.
When i say... "i am a Christian," i'm not bragging of success. i'm admitting i have failed, And need God to clean my mess.
When i say... "i am a Christian," i'm not claiming to be perfect. my flaws are far too visible, But God believes i am worth it.
When i say... "i am a Christian," i still feel the sting of pain. i have my share of heartaches, So i call upon His name.
When i say... "i am a Christian," i'm not holier than thou. i'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace somehow.
Here's a series of photos i koped from joan... this is what a typical trip to youth service looks like... Here's one taken after nicole and Alvin's wedding. See if can spot me trying to stick my head out in the left side of the picture...
Danielle looks so pro in this pic haha...
I didnt know our congregation for morning service is so colourful!
And as always, here's leaving you with a video from shirgin's blog hehehe... This one ar... totally totally cracked me up... an old music video done by the pasir ris youth... just watching the intro was worth it hahaha...
Let me see... where can i start? Well, i was uptight about prelims that i had 4 nightmares in the day before gp paper... from what i recall one was that i woke up late and that the paper already started, another was prob i was outside walking in some shopping forgot got exam during that time etc etc. damn exams!
I have been studying damn damn damn hard... Force until cannot force still must force and yet my results are so fantastic la... Even my gp also can fail i have nothing to say la... I dont recall getting much encouragement from my parents other than my dad promising a new computer if i do well at As (which is obviously impossible), instead all i get after forcing myself to study for hours at a stretch outside is to get nagged at to "stop using the computer and go and study". Go Figure!
Mel, rarr and liy were quite entertaining with their smses sent at the exactly same time. It read, "Baa Baa! Good luck for your prelims sheep! (yes they call me shaun the sheep) Baa Baa! :)) we mish u! *GRINS* " I tot how come the 3 clowns remembered to wish me good luck then my good pal adriene NEVER!!! Turned out she had a little surprise! She baked cupcakes haha... I only have a pic of one of them as my mum attacked the other one before i managed to photograph it... And boy it generated so much publicity around school where almost everyone i bumped into kept asking me if i baked them... LIKE DO I LOOK I DO BAKING??!! *fainted*
Oh well, i was so so upset that after accompanying adriene to ntuc where she was shopping for her family's steamboat dinner... i splurged on all of this rubbish to keep myself happy... boy i never bought so much crap before at one go... damn exams!
Oh ya here are some pics tt i took wif driene cuz i realised we didnt have any pic where both of us looked nice... oh well, not that these turned out very well either hahaha...
What else happened... oh ya, nicole got married to alvin and they are officially the youngest couple of our generation hahaha! =D Alvin actually carried nicole, wedding gown and all, to huge applause hahaha... way to go buddy! Here's me and my sis wif the bride and groom...
i tot that this sign was totally retarded haha... like who will park their CARS or MOTORBIKES at the bicycle bay??
Here's a picture i really like... Tried to spoof xinyi's emoing stance on the road divider, just that i did a single hand fan haha...
And in my usual trademark fashion, here's leaving you with a short video to keep you occupied... Dan and Dave Buck star in "Spring Jam 2007" - one of the most highly rated flourishing videos of all time. Boy they rock!
Kinda realised i needed somewhere to rant and give a pat on the back for my wonderful frens who are such a blessing to me... so i guess i'll start afresh with a new blog where i'd pass the url to my closest buddies instead of letting the whole world see so i can go slightly more in depth to my life's happenings...
And if you havent done my quiz... Check it out! I'll give a prize to the highest scorer cuz i tried my best to think of the hardest qns i could ask haha! Its on the sidebar on the right! You cant miss it!
I also decided to try to enable the comments function and watch if you guys will use it or not... you know like how people leave comments on livejournal... it works something like that...
