Nexus 4 is my new blog song, the first half of the double A single from L'arc en ciel's 35th! Nexus 4/Shine.

Its like, I'll pick up these kind of cheery rifts rather than emo powerchords any day.


I've been fiddling with my new Zen X-Fi and its X-Fi functions, which really grabs the mp3 file by the throat and forces it to expel all its insides. I've got all the bang from my buck all right.

Mom's going crazy over electronics shopping.

I wish I could combine all my devices into one imba gadget. Let's see ->

Processing -> 64MB RAM, MIPS R4000-based; clocked from 1 to 333 MHz

Memory -> Memory stick Pro Duo 4gb, SD card 4gb, X-Fi internal 8GB, M2 1GB, total 17GB

Screen -> 11 cm (4.3 in) LCD screen, 480 x 272 pixel video playback, 16.77 million colors, 2.5inch TFT LCD.



So, you get a device which takes on the form of primarily the PSP, and is Red, white and black.

Aesthetics -> 2 Separate SD card and memory stick slots. 5 buttons added adjacent to original 4 buttons on left side(Square Triangle X Circle), 4 core buttons raised.

Media -> .AVI, AAC(.M4A), MPEG - (1~4), .WMA, .WAV, UMD video, X-Fi function.

Games -> UMD, Accesible from SD and Memory stick,

Screen -> 4.5inch TFT LCD non-reflective screen, capable of 522 x 360 resolution

Memory -> (8.8gb base memory; Effective 8GB due to firmware and restrictions, maximum 32GB with 16gb memory stick and 8gb SD)

Battery life -> 8 ~ 25 hours depending on usage of functions, backlight brightness, etc.

Phone function -> Activate phone mode to rotate screen orientation anti-clockwise by 90 degrees. dial using 5+4 core keys. Sms in similar fashion.

"Music Mode" ->
Updown to move through tracks, left right for fastforward/reverse.
Home(PS) Button becomes an uponelevel button, or back button.
Select/Start to pause/play
R triggers X-Fi widening.
L cycles through X-Fi crystalisation.


Whee, love my imagination.

Yesterday and the day before were the most fun 2 days I've had in the past 5 months.

After school on thursday was stoning, before we all rushed to the PE room and grabbed like 12 floorball sticks. 6 V 6, MUAHAHAHAHA. Was really retarded, could feel my IQ being drained by the second.

After that went to IMM to get Benny's shit, err, rojak, errr, ya, rojak.

:D


Friday's walk was total filler, talked cock and had some good news about my prelim zuo wen :D

Went back to class and proceeded to trade 20 IQ points for a table tennis session.

In the hall, they tried to play "Who's tagline?". Yeah, I'd really like to know who is tagline too, what kind of weird name is tagline?

Next was michelle's house! Her 16th birthday!

I think everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves there, no question at all.

Everything in Tennis is easier said that done, you either hit the ball out or you can't make it past your own net if you try to spin it. 10 minutes of Tennis > 2.4km in terms of energy spent and exhaustion level.

Table tennis is, I don't know how to control strength, period.

Badminton = watching Kendric stick a few shuttlecocks at high platforms.

Hope the birthday girl enjoyed the party, the cake, karaoke, laughter.



Have I mentioned that writing sulFuric acid felt really weird and strangely vulgar lol

"Life is not fair but God is good."

That's how I lived 2006.

Like, finally reached level 70 around the march or april of that year or so. Did the 3rd job, and got high. No one else did it, but I did :D

So, I was stuck in that corner of the classroom, just flipped around.

Elena became my new neighbour. Nicky on my left.

I'm sure Chia Lek Kee made an impact to us all, effectively draining us of 6 months of chinese lessons, which seriously sucked for people lousy at the language. A certain someone was being particularly annoying to me too.

Who cared?

I was enjoying myself being obnoxiously blind too. Like, exploding for no random reason.

I swore to anti-attentionwhore-emos. And save the genuine ones from certain peril.


It was one fateful assembly where this certain announcement was made, and I was surprised with mixed feelings upon hearing it; the entire sec 1 and sec 2 cohort were to perform a mass dance in that year's national day parade ceremony.

I was sure others around me all felt differently.

The angle of elevation of a tower T from point Y is 68 degrees.

Y is 2.5km from X, the base of tower T.

Using toacahsoh, you will find that the tower T is [2.5sin inverse (68)]metres, which gives you about 6.2km.

WOW.

Teenagers are slap happy also.

Marife Cruz Yap has saved the sorry asses of many a lousy english student in nan hua.

I've also completed Oddworld : Abe's Exoddus, after 3 days of playing. Did I mention I'm having my prelim right about now lol.

I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars

I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars

Look at me, look at me
hands in the air like it's good to be
ALIVE
and I'm a famous rapper
even when the paths're all crookedy
I can show you how to do-si-do
I can show you how to scratch a record
I can take apart the remote control
And I can almost put it back together
I can tie a knot in a cherry stem
I can tell you about Leif Ericson
I know all the words to "De Colores"
And "I'm Proud to be an American"
Me and my friend saw a platypus
Me and my friend made a comic book
And guess how long it took
I can do anything that I want cause, look:

I can keep rhythm with no metronome
No metronome
No metronome

And I can see your face on the telephone
On the telephone
On the telephone

Look at me
Look at me
Just called to say that it's good to be
ALIVE
In such a small world
I'm all curled up with a book to read
I can make money open up a thrift store
I can make a living off a magazine
I can design an engine sixty four
Miles to a gallon of gasoline
I can make new antibiotics
I can make computers survive aquatic conditions
I know how to run a business
I can make you wanna buy a product
Movers shakers and producers
Me and my friends understand the future
I see the strings that control the systems
I can do anything with no assistance
Cuz I can lead a nation with a microphone
With a microphone
With a microphone
And I can split the atom of a molecule
Of a molecule
Of a molecule

Look at me
Look at me
Driving and I won't stop
And it feels so good to be
Alive and on top
My reach is global
My tower secure
My cause is noble
My power is pure

I can hand out a million vaccinations
Or let'em all die in exasperation
Have'em all healed of their lacerations
Have'em all killed by assassination
I can make anybody go to prison
Just because I don't like'em and
I can do anything with no permission
I have it all under my command

Because I can guide a missile by satellite
By satellite
By satellite
And I can hit a target through a telescope
Through a telescope
Through a telescope
And I can end the planet in a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust

I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars

I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars



Let's think about creative ways to save fuel!

1. Jaywalk -> ever had that situation where 6 cars stop for you just so you can cross a 5 metre pedestrian crossing in 10 seconds? If you study physics, you'll know that that needs a lot of energy due to the resultant force required to brake and accelerate the car! So do your part for the Earth today! Break the law!

2. Liposuction -> ever get pissed at fatties? Well, why not suck all that fat out of them and emulsify the fat so that it becomes liquid? Perhaps they might be able to use it for fuel, or not. Either way, you save a whole lot of gas if you reduce every tubby by 40kg. Can't argue with that.

3. Make the work week 2 days instead of 5 days -> By doing this, we're effectively reducing all peak hour jams by 60%! Cause the jam would be the same anyway. Most shoppers on weekends take public transports instead of cars. Sure this isn't economical, but then again, it wouldn't be so bad if the entire world did the same.

4.Nuke China and the US =D -> Nuff said.



Tuesday, August 19, 2008 10:09 am






Hilarious.

I'm sick with diarrhoea! Not verbal diarrhoea(that's normal), but ANAL diarrhoea!

Who wants to know the colour of my bile pigments and colon bacteria? =DD




The first.


249, and Rayson called me to check if I was interested in going for Nan Hua Secondary's open house.

I went of course, Dad's car parked beside his mom's at the carpark opposite. We were greeted by overly enthusiastic councillors, who brought us to the car porch. I explored the canteen to see some of my primary 6 counterparts from other schools, and I chuckled at the sign "H20 Quencher". Cute, I thought.

Dad was talking to a man with a rather round face, whose english was a bit, choppy, but very Singaporean. I laughed along as I found out I couldn't get into the special stream due to my rather, dismal PSLE higher chinese result, missed by 1 point.

A few patrols up and down the car porch, and I got bored. Nevertheless, I returned home and entered 3047 into my application form. It felt like a warm, comfortable place.

1 month later, I was trudging around the canteen. The rain hadn't stopped since New Year's day.

It felt really alien. I could recognise no one.

I pushed into the crowd to check for my name on the whiteboard, "Soh Xing Wei Klinsen..... 105".

5, wow. I must suck. After being in the number 1 or 2 class for 6 years, I was a bit taken aback. But, I thought about how I must've been arranged at the top of the express stream.

I found the 105 table and saw 2 other boys there who obviously knew each other. My first question was "Is this 105?", despite the fact that the big white sheet of paper was right under my nose.

"Do you play Maple?"

They raised their eyebrows.

In the classroom, I quickly settled at a seat near the back. Suddenly, who would I see, but Cherhan? Someone whom I didn't talk to much in primary school, but man, was I glad to see someone I recognised.


Apparently, there was some confusion over classroom allocations, so we were moved to the classroom closest to the canteen.

4 people were in the wrong classroom, I couldn't remember who. They left soon after, and another 4 joined us.

During the introduction session, I was disappointed at the lack of flaming hot females.

"Fuck", came out for the first time in that school.

I sighed as I slapped my desk, it felt like was going to be a shitty four years.



9:45 am



Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but your so hot that I melted

I fell right through the cracks, and I'm trying to get back

Before the cool done run out I'll be giving it my best test

Nothing's gonna stop me but divine intervention

I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some.

I won't hesitate no more, No more, Iit cannot wait, I'm yours

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through

You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you

Yeah


Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free

Look into your heart and you'll find love love love

Listen to the music at the moment maybe sing with me

Ah, la peaceful melody

It's your god forsaken right to be loved loved loved.


I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go

I worry I won't see your face
Light up again


Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme

(I'm sure)
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
(there's no need to complicate, our time is short)
I somehow find
(This is our fate)
You and I
(I'm yours)
Collide

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train


It's not easy to be me


Was I not enough stimulation
Hit by a brake the other day
Just when I thought that I'm okay

You didn't like my conversation

I can't come up with something new It doesn't really matter what I do

So here's my observation

You could never see it through my eyes

And I'm too tired to try


I was lost and alone
Trying to grow
Making my way down that long winding road
Had no reason, no rhyme
Like a song out of time
And there you were, standing in front of my eyes

How could I be such a fool
To let go of love and break all the rules
Girl when you walked out that door
left a hole in my heart
And now I know for sure

I'm here without you baby
but you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
but you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight, I'm yours

And don't lie and say your over me
Don't mean nothing
I'm always getting over you

I was lost and alone
but you're still on my lonely mind
It cannot wait, I'm yours
I can't stand to fly
You finally find
You and I collide

I can't stand to fly
You finally find You and I
Collide

You finally find You and I Collide

Let's say you're travelling with the world in spirit. Everyone's ultimate destiny lies in an island 10 kilometres away from your position : a cliff 200 metres high.

What some people plan to do, is leap off the cliff and then start swimming towards the island.

Some would choose to brave the jungle for a few days and slowly trek their way down, finding the lost on the way, and then plan to mobilize them to build a raft/boat, so that everyone will reach safely.

Is the fastest way always the best way? Ask yourself this, especially when the fastest way involves abandoning your loved ones. You claim to follow the writings of the great teacher, but isn't that all you are doing?

I, on the other hand, would listen to my teacher's first-hand instructions.



Thursday, August 14, 2008 9:24 pm



Tsk, bigger isn't always better.

You would think that monetary donations are used for the greater good.

Everywhere else, I see companions, friends, family, harmony.

But there, I see corporations, fiends, money, entropy.


There is simply nothing for it.



Tuesday, August 12, 2008 10:58 pm



Wanna give thanks for a few random people.

1. Miss Chian.

Okay la, despite what I say, the worst I could do is not listen in her class or make fun of her. As long as she continues to be the nicest teacher with the best attitude, that's great.

2. James (that sec 3 douchebag)

I used to think I knew what was pathetic and gay, until he came along.

3. Aiden the band.

I've learnt what lousy music truly is through them.



Saturday, August 09, 2008 12:37 pm






I remember when I watched this at lot 1 a few years back, made me laugh like crazy.



Thursday, August 07, 2008 11:50 pm



Dinner with Bro, parents, at an old place.

:)



Wednesday, August 06, 2008 8:59 pm




I'm like, whatever lah.

I just feel like doing everything I like and just flattening everything else out of my sight.



Taken with crappy 2mehpixel phone. SMRT AND SBS ARE COPYING NEWURBANMALE.

WE - THE CRAP ASSES WHO SPENT $200 BUYING NO-PURPOSE COLOURED BAGS WITH A SQUIGGLY LINE ON THEM.
PLEDGE TO WASTE MONEY IN DOING MUNDANE THINGS LIKE SPENDING $50 BUYING $2 'havainas' SLIPPERS.
AND TO CONTINUE WORSHIPPING THE ICON THAT IS THE HUMAN SPERM
(that we want to swallow)


Grouchy grouchy post.

DIE MISSCHIAN STOP TELLING US TO GET MINIMUM 5 WRONG FOR OUR MCQ. LATER WE GIVE YOU MAXIMUM 5 CORRECT.

If you have bought bubble tea, or have been asked instructions from some tng lang.


That's the end of Singapore for you. The day China opposition parties start fighting the PAP, I'll be laughing to my grave. Cause I won't know who to support.

Humanities are the studies of how people have hurt each other, how they hurt each other, and how they will hurt each other. Geography, History, Literature -> you're bound to see how men can scatter hate and death all over their land.



To his success, I salute you, Mr. Obama.



7:45 pm





Whatever happened to the values of humanity?
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality?
Instead of spreading love we spreading animosity
Like from this standing leading us away from unity

That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin down
It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin under
Got to keep my beat alive till love is found.


Dinner made me realise how blessed I am to have a loving functional family.

Dad came from a poor family.

Mom grew up without the love of a father.

All the times they had to work hard to earn a living, made them so much stronger than what anyone else can be now.


Hope you remember me
When you're homesick and need a change
I miss your purple hair
I miss the way you taste.

I know you'll come back someday.
On a bed of nails, I'll wait.
I'm praying you don't burn out
Or fade away.

And all we are
Is all so far


Wonder what kind of brother I can be.

I want to be the best friend I could be, and do nothing that one shouldn't.


Standing on the rooftops
Waiting till the bomb drops
This is all we got now
Screaming till your heart stops
Never gonna regret
Watching every sunset
Listen to your heart beat
All the pain that we felt

Scream your heart out.


The days are long and draining, but we all need to find a way to carry on.

Shit happens, but that doesn't mean we lose hope just like that.


I miss that town
I miss their faces
You can't erase
You can't replace it

I miss it now
I can't believe it
So hard to stay
Too hard to leave it

If I could relive those days.
I know the one thing that would never change.


Thought about the times I used to go to Bukit Merah for cell, and how I never treasured those times with Jerome, Justin and Dominic. Junhao, 'uncle' waimun.

I want to go back.

Remember how we'd use to eat at that INDIAN fast food restaurant. Was always like curry and yoghurt.


The daily things
that keep us all busy
All confusing me
That's when you came to me and said,

"Wish I could prove I love you
But does that mean I have to walk on water?
When we are older you'll understand
It's enough when I say so."
And maybe some things are that simple


402 outing today really kind of decided for me who's impacted my life in this class and who hasn't. For those who haven't, pity. God just happened to put you guys out of my life, for more important things.

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder

If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you tonight


I'm like, finishing my road in secondary school. It's kinda sad actually.

Miss all the old times and rollercoaster rides.



Tuesday, August 05, 2008 9:14 pm



Okay. I stopped reading Dgrayman for delay reasons.

And then night classes have been, okay so far. Better than no work done at home. Although its still damn irritating to see some people hanging around.

Bio was easy, so, okay. Chem and Physics next.

Added surnames to all the contacts in my phone, except for the following;


Chai Yen (don't know your surname)
Dad (lol Dad Soh)
Grace (don't know surname)
Garion (Doesn't need)
Huiwen (doesn't know)
Irvin (was it Ong?)
Jean (don't know)
J.T (T is a surname)
Kwangteng (no idea either)
Minghui (don't know which one LOL)
Mom (see 'Dad')
Kali (.... don't know what it is)
Officer Darryl(that's what its listed as)
Tuition
Waimun (not weimann lol)
Yannick (my brother)

And a number of people I don't really bother about.



Yishuo, stop flaming people D: D: D: that's all you've been doing all of a sudden.

I am probably not going for grad night anymore. For various reasons

e.g To watch 407 and 412 whore the entire night with their antics. Sheesh, I'd be surprised if any of them could get a proper job next time.

Rather spend the night with decent, intelligent people.
