Bishan Heights RC Mini 2011

Today's whole morning and afternoon were spent on the Bishan Heights RC Mini 2011.
Morning was great and I managed to win 3 games out of 4 games, all against very strong opponents. I think the reason why I lost all remaining 5 games in the afternoon after lunch was due to sleeping late. Other than 2 stupid mistakes that costed me the 2 games, I think lack of sleep resulted in a lack of energy in focus or concentration. No doubt I will lose so badly. There is no one to blame except myself.
After the competition ended at approximately 6.10pm, I waited for Goutham who took an interview for Paul Richards for his school project before we left for Bishan Mrt Station together.
Later I went to the Virtualand at Junction 8 to find Syaq since we had already arranged to meet there. Today's not so bad even though I spent a lot of money on playing. My Paul is now on Brawler rank. One more to go to become more prestigious.
We tried a lot of games using my Law which is Master Rank but Syaq's Yoshimitsu still remained unpromoted. Haiya.. I think we will have to try the next time we are at Bishan or some other places like Jurong Point.
Tekken is just starting to get more and more interesting with the ranks going up subsequently.


>Next Saturday is definitely playing at Jurong Point. I will find a chance to go to Bugis to play again. Syaq and I have agreed to meet some time at Causeway Point so that we can play against the nameless people.

To Jurong Point with Alan! (Tekken 6)

I think for every Saturday now, Alan and I will meet at Yishun to go to Jurong Point to play Tekken 6. The ambience at Jurong Point is not bad. At least at Alan and I or even Song Peng as well can play ranking matches all the time. Except Jin Jialat, I think all the rest of the people at Jurong Point are beatable. Omg, I sound so arrogant.
Perhaps it is like what Alan has said inside the train today. He said that I feel like promoting my cards to high ranks because I have the thinking that I have improved and have the skills to beat anyone who comes in my way. I think it is true in some sense since I have been playing at Bugis all this while and my skills have really improved for Paul, Law, Yoshimitsu and King.
Alan and I reached Jurong Point Virtualand at around 3.15pm. We saw Song Peng who was always reaching earlier than us and playing with some unknown strangers.
As Song Peng was playing with someone else, Alan and I started playing Paul mirror matches. I won him 3 games before he went to play ranking matches with Song Peng. He used Steve and demoted Song Peng's Jack 6 to 4th dan. Later Alan put in his Leo card and managed to promote from Mentor to Master.
Later I played with Song Peng and tried to promote my Yoshimitsu but I didn't manage to do so. In the end I tried using Law and promote to Mentor rank and demote his Jack 6 to 3rd dan.
I tried using King but got demoted to 2nd dan instead. Later I changed to using Lee and he managed to defeat my Lee and promote back to 4th dan.
I tried using Law again and got promoted to Master rank. Later my King has 4 wins against Alan's 3rd dan Lee and I fought with Song Peng's Jack 6 to get promoted back to 3rd dan. So overall, I have 2 promotions today.
Song Peng left at 7pm and Alan and I went to eat at 8plus. We went to Fairprice to buy OK Tea first since Alan heard from the worker when he bought some food to eat from a particular stall.
Later we went to the food stalls located right outside Jurong Point. I bought carrot cake for $3.50 and Alan bought Nasi Lemak for $2.20 since we figured out that we will be quite full from drinking the Milk Tea.
Haha Alan changed seats while eating just so that he can glance at a pretty girl that is a waitress at the bar right beside us. LOL we never go and ask her for her age and number but I believe we will still see her again next Saturday when we go Jurong Point again. I think her age is between 23-25 although Alan said she should be 26-28 years old. Haha let's see who is correct next week.
On the Boon Lay mrt station, Alan and I saw a bickering couple and he shared with me his experiences on the mrt when we were on the way home. Haha such outings are fun especially we can maximise playing Tekken 6 to the max and chatting and eating as well:)
Tomorrow is the Bishan Heights RC Mini. I hope I can win some prize money tomorrow so that I can have more money to spend:) I am meeting Syaq at Bishan Virtualand for Tekken 6 as well. This is really maximising what I can do for Tekken 6. I hope I can maximise everything to the fullest.


>Alan is right. Tekken 6 is part of our life for now, and I am enjoying it to the max.
>Let's maximise Studies, Scrabble and Tekken 6 for now:D

Went to watch F1 at City Hall/ Marina Bay area with Goutham!

Today is unexpectedly a tiring day for me. I think I have reached my tethering ends already. When this day comes, I will always be so tired that I can hardly focus on anything except sleeping.
I came out earlier today and went to Bugis Virtualand for Tekken 6. My Yoshimitsu got demoted back to 4th dan, but I realised my improvement after playing with Edric (+Loss)Imperfection. I realised my 3 strongest characters, namely Yoshimitsu, Law and Paul.
Leaving at almost 5pm, I went to City Hall to meet Goutham who was waiting for me to go and see the F1 race together. The ticket that we have bought today was Zone 4 Walkabout tickets which meant that there are certain zones that we cannot go and we don't have seats to sit on during the race observation. We will have to stand all the way.
Reaching there, we went to the nearby stalls and I ate Nasi Lemak for $6 while Goutham accompanied me. The food and drinks inside were pretty expensive and this Nasi Lemak was already the cheapest.
Thereafter, we went to see the real race starting at 6.15pm. Actually today's race and Saturday's race were practice races and only the race on Sunday is the real one.
Goutham and I took so long to walk around in search for nice spots to watch the F1s and sit down as well. After quite some time, we found the stall that sold Ponchos and Earplugs for $2. There is definitely the need to buy Earplugs as the sound produced from the F1's engines were incredibly loud and the sound can be described as somewhat like the combination of the sound of the bee and thunder.
The nicest spot we have found was right outside the Esplanade and we could even sit down and enjoy the views of the F1 cars coming in at top speed. Splendid!
At 8.30pm, when the qualifiers race was over, we went to Macdonalds as Goutham needed to eat something and I drank plain water from cups gotten from Macdonalds. LOL.
Later we went back to watch the practice race from 9.30pm to 11pm but we left at 10pm as we found that watching the race was mundane and repititive. Besides we do not support any specific team or racer so there is no urge to continue watching.
I managed to reach home at approximately 10.30pm. After clearing all my things, now is finally the time to sleep! Tomorrow chiong Tekken 6 at Jurong Point with Alan!

>The picture above shows the F1 Walkabout Ticket. It costs only $38 for Friday but it was easily more than $100 on Saturday and Sunday! Wow!

Meet up with Zamir and Zhi Long bros at Bishan Junction 8!

I guess I can never be one to sleep early and tahan the next night sleeping so late.
Previous night, due to tidying up my table, I slept at nearing 3pm after doing all my important stuffs.
Today after work, I took the North East Line to Dhoby Gaut before going all the way to Bishan. This morning, there was a technical fault with the trains at Circle Line resulting in Circle line being closed down for operations for more than 4 hours. Surprisingly I realised travelling to Dhoby Gaut is much faster than I have ever expected so I am going to change line from now onwards.
Reaching Junction 8 at nearing 7pm, I met Zamir who was already there and went up to Virtualand to play for a while before Zhi Long came over to find us from Toa Payoh as he went back to take money.
Subsequently, we went to settle for dinner at KFC and then went to find Gong Cha which is just directly above us but we were unaware of it. Now that we know it, next time will be more convenient.
Later we went up to Virtualand again and I used my Law card to farm my Yoshimitsu rank to Mentor. I also realised how shagged 1 person can be when he sleeps late. I am not going to sleep late ever again if there is nothing necessary to do!
By the time we left Virtualand it was already 10.15pm so all of us just headed home to prepare to rest for tomorrow.
Tomorrow will be a brand new day!


>Happy Birthday Andy bro! Please contact me as soon as you can. I want to know your progress now, whether you are feeling okay. All the best!

Cleaned my entire desk!

Today's entire night time was used to clean my entire desk and I did not even have any time to do any other thing.
The process was extremely tiring but definitely extremely worthed it. I started tidying up at 8.50pm and only managed to finish at 11.10pm. I realised that it has been so long ever since I have last cleaned my table like this. The dust was as thick as almost a "book" thickness.
 I also bought a new file stacker so that I can have more space in my cabinet and maximise my space on the table as well.
Now the time is already 1.51am and I am dead tired. Off to bed!

To Junction 8 with Noble for lunch and Tekken 6!

Weekend always goes as fast as they can come. In a blink of an eye, it is Monday again.
These few days I am really on a Tekken splurge.
I only slept at 8am today and so I woke up at 2plus when Noble called me and I bathed and went out to meet him for lunch at Bishan Junction 8.
When we reached Bishan, we had lunch first at KFC as we have said so earlier and went up to Virtualand for Tekken 6. There is really nobody at Bishan to play with to promote my ranks. Today I managed to promote my Law back to 4th dan after demoting Noble's King to 2nd dan and during some of the processes I even let him use my King.
We played all our characters all the way till 6.50pm before leaving to home.


>Time is always not enough!

Tekken Splash!

Friday and Saturday were really crazy days.
On Friday, after work, Alan, Boon Kai, Kiat Peng, Song Peng and I arranged to meet at Bugis to play Tekken 6. I didn't eat dinner at all but just played the entire day at the Virtualand. Mostly I depended on Milk Tea to quench my thirst. I think my skills are improving but I don't know whether I should continue using cards to play for every single game. Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Today all my parents and my grandparents went in to Malaysia so there're only left with my Brother, me and my sister at home. Waking up at 10plus, I used my computer until 12plus before leaving to meet Alan for lunch and then going to Jurong Point Virtualand for Tekken session.
Initially, we were meeting at 11am but the timing was constantly changing and the weather was rainy and unforeseeable so there were a lot of delays. Song Peng was already waiting for us at Jurong Point Virtualand. I did not manage to get all my cards promoted today, especially my Yoshimitsu. Yoshimitsu had 2 times promotion but I kept on losing it at the crucial moment.
My Hwoarang card was promoted to Mentor but in the end, as a result of using my Paul and playing against Alan, my Paul got promoted to Master and Hwoarang got demoted back to 4th dan. Before that my Law got demoted to 3rd dan by Alan. Lee also had demotion chance but I did not want to demote my card so I just let the promotion chance be saved.
The only bad thing about using cards all the times is that I tend to lose out during ranking matches as my cards already had a lot of losses beforehand and demotion risks are precedented.
At 8plus, Alan and I went for dinner at Benten cafe and of course the set meal that we ordered was good and expensive as well.
After that we went back for a few more games before going back home.
Next weekends will be busy! I will be going Jurong Point again with Alan on Saturday and going for Bishan Heights Mini RC for Scrabble Competition on Sunday.

>Can I get to the rank that I want?

Grandeur 8 Scrabble Competition 2011

Look at all the 10 pictures of different Scrabble boards for the 10 games played at Grandeur 8 today. The different boards were simply magnificent. I prefer black boards and colourful tiles, just like the 5th game.
1st Game: No bingo missed.
2nd Game: Cooper- means to make barrels. No bingo missed.
3rd Game: Tift- means to lunch. No bingo missed.
4th Game: Another annagram for Hankerer- Harkener. Harkener- means one that listens. Hankerer means one who hankers (to long for). No bingo missed.
5th Game: Missed Grilses- means a young salmon.
6th Game: No bingo missed.
7th Game: Missed Booners- means a young working class person from Canberra. Missed Borneol- means alcohol used in perfumes. Missed Parvise- means an enclosed area in front of a church , also Parvis. Missed Paviser- a soldier carrying a Pavis.
8th Game: Missed Coition- meaning sexual intercourse (WOW). Missed Tawnily- in a tawny manner. Missed Flutina- means a type of accordion. Missed Nuptial- means a wedding. Missed Quintal- means one hundred kilograms. Missed Unvital- means not vital.
9th Game: Missed Coterie- an exclusive circle.
10th Game: Missed Resolute- means one who is resolute is characterized by firmness or determination [Resoluter, Resolutest].  More importantly, the annagrams for A,E,E,I,L,N,R,T are only ELATERIN, ENTAILER and TREENAIL.

Now I really have the feeling of improving my Scrabble skills further. Let's aim for the best in the shortest years' time as possible.
After the competition, Goutham and I went to swim in the swimming pool inside Grandeur 8 and the temperature of the water was just freaking cold! Haha we swam all the way till 8pm before bathing and leaving and it was really super fun!
Thereafter when we reached Yishun, initially I wanted to eat Macdonalds with Goutham but he last minute did not wanted to eat so I just bought Long John Silvers back home to eat.
Hopefully I can join some overseas tourneys to improve myself/ get more exposure or if luckily, wins more prizes.


>Next target is the Singapore Open Scrabble Championship.

Impending Grandeur 8!

I felt like decades ever since I last updated my blog.
Last Friday and this Friday were the best since Boon Kai, Kiat Peng, Alan and I could all meet at Bugis in the evening for Tekken session.
Yesterday I did not "chiong" as much compared to when fighting against Eevil since I think that I rather play a few good games properly rather than playing a lot and losing hastily. The first game was simply awesome winning Anthony's Law using my Yoshimitsu.
A while later at around 7plus, Boon Kai, Kiat Peng, Alan, Kelvin and I went upstairs to the Food Junction for dinner and later returned to Virtualand for more games.
I realised I was already tired when I returned after dinner. I guess people are like that. They get tired after filling up their stomaches/ getting full.
In any case, my Paul has gotten 5000*20= 100000G and Lucky Roulette during the Roulette spin. This is the rarest situation ever gotten from Roulette spinning. I do hope that my Roulette will last forever. :)
Later at around 11.40pm, all of us went home by the last train to Joo Koon and last train to Jurong East. I think this day was really one of the luckiest day for us.
Today a Tekken 6 PS3 Competition was held at the Expo for Tekken players. Unfortunately I cannot even afford the $10 entry fee. (+LOSS)Perfection told me to join but sadly I cannot. The place is also too far away.
I can see my improvement in Tekken 6 after attending the Bugis Virtualand Tekken area. Hehe. It is always the best to train with people stronger than you to make further improvements.


Today officially I have finished all Masked Rider Kabuto's episodes, special episodes and movies. Should I ask my brother for more Kamen Rider's shows? They are simply fantastic.
In the evening at around 5.30pm, my Aunt called me out for dinner together at Ah Mei's Cafe right beside KFC in Northpoint. We had a long chat until 7.30pm before she went back home to Sembawang. All the casual talk has made me serious and thoughtful about my future education and career path.
Tomorrow is Grandeur 8 Scrabble Competition held at the Condo right beside Nanyang Polytechnic. I hope I can do better this time round.
I feel like buying the above drama show to watch although it is broadcasted on the Television Channel U now.



>Let's hope for the best after trying our best!

Loving Tekken 6 at Bugis!

Yesterday marks the end of 2nd week. Every friday, I will definitely go to Bugis Virtualand for Tekken session.
Yesterday I met Song Peng there and I bought his Law card for $5. I realised I am good at playing Law for a character. It will definitely be one of my main character other than Yoshimitsu, Paul, King and Lee. So in total I will have 5 characters for concentration now, not counting in Roger Junior, Hwoarang and Devil Jin just yet.
At around 7plus we went to eat at the Food Junction before returning for more games. It is certainly interesting seeing Fantasy fight against Jian Hua even though the winner was already somewhat predictable.
Alan, Kiat Peng and I also tried playing ranking matches against one another while Boon Kai just played at the other side by himself.
If only the time for Friday night is Infinite! <3ing it! :D
Tomorrow the whole family is going to my Grandmother's house at Sembawang for dinner. Let's hope for more crabs and more movies! Wow!
