today was pcb for serangoon sec camp happening on 14-16May. it was held at starbucks suntec city, which is a very nice place to chill and have coffee at the same time. i'm mirroring maiosia aka mayo prawn. haha! =) she really looks like mun ting la! but is mini version de. after pcb, went to the arcade to play the candy machine again, but this time, i never play, andrew play only. he won a pooh bear hugging a honey jug. after playing, went to food court to eat curry chicken with rice (supposedly to be very good and tasty as said by andrew), which was really nice =) after dinner, went to donut factory and buy a box of donuts for my mum for mother's day and cabbed home with andrew.
hey mum! i know you definitely will not see this post, but just wanna say that i really love you a lot. there is really nobody that can replace your position in my heart. not forgetting the times you were there looking after me when i was sick. always there to lend a listening ear when i need someone. the love that you exhibit towards me is immeasurable and i assure you that the love will definitely be reciprocated. with regards to the promise i made with you that i will fulfil by 1st june, i will do it. have a little faith in me that i can do it! anyway, happy mother's day to you! although to me, everyday is mother's day=)))
the distance is getting wider, and i can feel it myself too.i really miss my fmss 2h'08 campers, can't wait for 5th july to come! =)

just woke up after about 10hours of sleep, although i'm still feeling very tired, cos for the past 3 nights, i only slept for a total of 10hours. all for the sake of fairfield methodist sec 2H'08! if you ask me, is it all worth it? after reading through a couple of their blogs and what they wrote, i can say that all is worth it. going all out for them, making sure they all have their meals, making sure they are safe and sound during activities, making sure they have as much fun at every activity and most importantly, since the theme of the camp is team bonding, i tried my very best to make the class bond together. i do not know whether i had succeeded in bonding the class together, as only the class will know themselves when they return back to school next monday;)
throughout the camp, i was feeling kinda demoralized during the 1st day, as the response from the class is pretty lukewarm. not forgetting that mr lee commended me and carrie on 1st night's debrief for a fantastic job done=) after rafting on 2nd day and 2nd night's kidnapped, the class's response was much better and it boosted my morale a few notches up. during the 3rd day, we had belay school and crc, which was pretty ok and can see that those who tried had fun! after crc, we had campfire prep; whereby i decided to do "xi shua shua" dance, which really bonded the class together. during dinner duty, i would say my class really did a super fantastic job, as the dining hall especially the wash-up bay is super clean. during campfire, my class really supported me and screamed damn loud, which i deeply appreciate=) overall, it was a fantastic camp for me, and the most satisfaction comes from 2h'08 being awarded the best class in fairfield methodist secondary school team bonding camp'08, and tell me how cool is that?!?!? awesome dude!!!
just a shout-out to fmss 2h'08: hope that every single one of you had enjoyed the 4d3n camp. sorry to anyone that i scolded or picked on, and hope that you will understand i only have the best interests for you. you all don't need to remember me, but please do remember the happy and fun times the entire class had at the camp, and bring back all the values that you all learnt in camp to apply back to your class life. please also understand that all your teachers in fmss all have your best interests in heart, so do learn how to appreciate them more and as far as possible, try not to give them too much problems. take good care of yourselves. study hard. play hard. and hope to see you all soon! =)))))
potato will miss everyone in fmss 2h'08 aka the best class in fmss~=)

today is really a very nua day for me... woke up at 2pm, had fried mee tai mak for lunch, then went off to beach road army market to change the salomon shoes with my mum. cos apparently size 8.5 is a bit too small for me, so i went to change to size 9. luckily, the auntie at the shop was really friendly and allowed me to change, despite not having the receipt and cutting off the shoe tag, she still allowed me to change. she even said the tag and receipt are not important, most important is to make sure the shoe is comfortable and is authentic can le... the auntie is like super nice la! next time sure patronize her shop again=)))
now is 8.01pm... feelin very lethargic and should be hitting the sack very soon. my mind is filled with so many thoughts till i feel that im going to go crazy! just share a few thoughts that are running through my mind:
1) learning how to let go. this is the main and focal point of my thoughts. it is indeed easier said than done, as when you really want to do it, there are certain factors that will prevent you from doing it. i guess it's just a double-edged sword situation now, whereby i'm torn between the 2 extremes=(((
2) i'm getting fatter and fatter and i want to lose weight!
8.10pmsigning offpcb at 4pm tomorrowbye~

had a long night last night... went for service, and because of what pastor jeff said and with the thoughts running through my mind, i broke down in church after service=((( it was really very disheartening at that time, and i just could not control my tears, and i just broke down. after service, i had dinner w my sim cg, before going to meet desmond and my 2 angels. timbre was really good; whereby the night at plasma was simply shiok and booze was good! =) after plasma, we went to chinatown to eat the famous porridge, which was really good too! mixed (assorted pig stuff) porridge was delicious! =) after that, chilled till about 6+am then went home...
i really hope that i can do it. and i know that i got to do it. or else, the one to suffer in the end is only myself. it will be very hard. it will be torturing for me. it will be a big obstacle to overcome. and i also do not understand why i can't seem to do it. probably i can't bear to do so.
god, save me.

just came home about 1 hour ago.. feeling kinda high... since 1st May 1pm at downtown east wild wild wet till 2nd May 11pm then reach home. me jo jac yuexing tim went to wild wild wet for a smashing wet time! haha! we enjoyed ourselves and had lots and lots of fun! =))) after that, takeaway kfc for dinner. after dinner, watched a bit of ah long pte ltd, then went off to the new arcade to satisfy my addiction for this new candy scooping machine, whereby with tactics in deciding when to release the cradle to go down to scoop all the various types of candies and release them to the central moving platform whereby the top platform will move forward and backward to push the candies to hit the centre 'launcher' lever which will trigger the jackpot to be activated. if you are normal and luck-less, you will hit '1' which will increase the number of lights in the bar to hit jackpot. '2' means that the lights will go up 2 bars, and '3' means that the lights will go up 3 bars, and lastly, jackpot is to win the prize straight =) the bar is split into 3 parts: A) candies will be pouring down from the top left hand corner, which will result in a small excitement! haha! B) the acrylic surface that supports all the candies will curve upwards, making the candies more compact, and prevent candies from falling off the acrylic platform C) the most exciting and exhilarating part; whereby the bottom half of the platform will move forward more than double the distance it's supposed to travel, and most of the candies will then flood down to the collection point. in order to fully illustrate how addictive this game is to me, i shall showcase the 3 episodes of addiction:-
1) it was after st nic's camp, where we are at amk hub; whereby me, ugly andrew, nurbaya, cherie and treviz (the easterners) went to arcade, cos andrew said he wants to play the candy scooping game. that was the 1st time i was introduced to this game; whereby andrew used $25 to win the top prize, which is this round and black Disney character, and also very nice to hug=) after seeing andrew win the prize and the bag of candies he won, i was very tempted and went to exchange $20 to try my luck. in the end, with the additional $1 help from andrew, i managed to win the prize with $21 only; whereby along the way, i soared to jackpot with the last spin that ended with '3'; whereby i stood up in joy! winning my 1st ever prize! (of course is 1st la, 1st time play this machine mah.. haha!)
2) after dinner at yuexing's birthday chalet, me, hz, horheh, desmond, leisha, and cheryl went to the new arcade of downtown east; whereby i heard they have the candy scooping game there too! i saw this very cute brown pillow that i know you will like, cos it's very very cute=))) i exchanged $30, and got it at my $28 mark. cos i was short of 3 bars to jackpot, so leisha said:"papa a, you can do it! god bless!" and the moment she said that, the spin ended at '3', and won the prize. i was very happy and exhilarated when i won the prize. (hope that you will like it when you get it tomorrow, hope you will not find it too childish) we were relaxing at the cafeteria outside the arcade, then i thought about my sister jo, who was kinda stressed up and vexed this week; thus, i decided to go play the game again, winning the same series, but in her favorite color:green! =) this prize really damn power, cos i already used $20, then i psychoed hz whether he minds sponsoring me $5. he self-inserted the 5 1-dollar coins, and said:"This will be a jackpot! God bless!" the moment the candy hit the 'launcher" lever, the spin ended at JP=jackpot!, and won the prize with only $21! (dunno whether with hz's luck, then jolene got her prize! haha! oops!)
3) today's episode is at suntec city, with jaclyn as my coin depositer and jolene as la-la-dui leader. haha! =) cos i saw a very cute pair of mugs, with pooh bear soft toy and tiger soft toy inside them. i thought of gettin them for my angels, cheryl and leisha=))) it was pretty slow, every increase is only '1'; whereby towards the $28 mark, the spin ended at JP=jackpot!, can you believe it??? haha! it must be mother luck shining on me...
anyway, after these 3 episodes, it's a sign to me to not succumb to this tempatation and addiction; thus, i will put off the next episode to my birthday... haha! =))))) can't wait to do camp next week~~~

it was really nice to go out with you again today, since 4th Feb'08. thanks for accompanying me today, and i really appreciate and cherish your company. anyway, guys and gals... i finally bought my own pair of salomon shoes, red and black combination design. it costs $169->$135, which i feel it is really a good buy man! =))))) after buying the shoes, we had very nice and appetizing beef hor fun at the army market, accompanied with super bland sugarcane water! haha! lol! we went to bras brasah complex to look for the book "god's blogs". for those who are believers in christ, i highly recommend this book to buy and read. it is very simple and easy to read; whereby the values and teachings inside are really very valuable and enlightening. those who are interested, can let me know, i don't mind lending to you to read. after that, went to bugis village to buy my $5 white watch, and went bugis junction to get yuexing's birthday present... after that, accompanied her to her job interview for events position; whereby she got it! congrats! (you know what to do hor! hee!) lastly, we went raffles city starbucks to have my venti caramel machiato, which never fails to satisfy. went home, and met desmond at night for supper cum drinks at the usual hang-out place. it was another good end to the night as both of us just relaxed over beer and food =)
after today, i came to realize that i should be able to let go soon... the feeling you give me is purely as a friend, and nothing more than that. probably god feels that we are better off as friends, rather than bf+gf. as the liking decreases, you will still be my soft spot till the day i completely give up =) take care~ and i really really look forward to doing the same camp as you.
thank you god, for showing me the direction to take and what to do. =)
