CNY Dinner at my Eldest Aunt's house

Nowadays I really hardly blog anymore. 
Friday I was stuck at home doing CMFI project for my part. If only I can finish my work on time and not last minute all the time, perhaps I will be better off with my results, time management and sleeping habits as well.
Nevertheless, I still went to Bugis Virtualand yesterday together with Song Peng. Syaq reached quite early at around 12.30pm and he played first while waiting for me to reach and lunch with him together.
This was also my 1st time topping $60 for the double value. My card will have 248 credits inside and I will be able to play for longer period of time but how long exactly? Sometimes I just finished spending in 3 days time.
This time round will be longer for sure as I have ICAs and impending exams around the corner. 
Recently I just came to realise that everything you do is about concentration. This may seems nothing but it works especially well when you devote your heart into doing something. I realised the effect when I played with Furholden and some other people yesterday. Maybe the 2nd thing I should learn is about priorities.
Thereafter I have to rush to my eldest aunt's house for CNY dinner. There seem to be a lot of differences when I reached her house. The ambience was quite different. Some were watching movies inside the room. Some were eating dinner outside in the living room. Some were upstairs. The lively ambience was lacking unlike celebrations in other houses. My elder brother had only reached at around 9.30pm and my aunt was missing in action since she said she "forgot" that there was this gathering. Besides the movie screening was faulty since I think the recording process had not been so good.
Later we thought of gambling since we had not done so for this year round. As I had spent my money eating KFC with Syaq in the afternoon, my grandmother supported me and gave me 5 $2 notes to play.
In the end I managed to win $4 and my grandmother just gave me all $14 to keep. <3
We ended up playing till 12.35am when my parents were back from Loyang temple praying to the gods.
Life's like that. 



>Let's just finish this semester smoothly and get done with Poly Life. I can't bear to get to my next phase in life.
>Let's hope I get Tekong Island for my NS training.

Happy Chinese New Year 2012!

Chinese New Year has arrived 20 minutes ago woohoo! ~
I haven't thought of my new year resolution yet. Life seems to be aimless right now on the verge of completing Polytechnic studies. What's my next step then? National Service? What's after National Service then?
Saturday's trip to Bugis for Tekken Session with Syaq, Boon Kai and Song Peng was very fruitful indeed. I managed to promote another 2 ranks up to 3rd dan, which makes my number of 3rd dan 4 right now on the list. Of course it is good to play continuously without any down in ranks but I yearn for higher positions definitely. Probably Brawler will only satisfy my appetite for now but I shall see how because it is really not an easy feat.
Today's Chinese New Year Eve seems to be a normal day at home. My grandmother arrived much earlier in the afternoon before all my other family members in the evening.
Approaching the evening time, it was suddenly raining cats and dogs. My youngest uncle was at Northpoint and he could not come over to my house because he did not bring any umbrellas. I switched off my lappy and brought 2 umbrellas to Northpoint Timezone and find him.
I played 1 TTT2 using King and Armor King to try to bring my team level up to 10 but it was not too fruitful. It just seems so near and yet so far.
I was surprised one game could actually take long when I was reaching stage 9, the last stage of the game while fighting the computers. I actually spent 22 minutes playing without knowing the time spent. As it was nearing 7pm, my uncle and I left to go to my house for reunion dinner in the rain as everyone had reached and was waiting for us.
Reunion dinner at my house was seemingly common to me as normal dishes and the eating area in the kitchen was a little crampy. The Lao Yu Sen afterwards was awesome and I ate a lot hehe:)
All right, now's left with 2 more days to CNY celebration and thereafter it will be resume of school life till exam period. Chiong for the last month already! Gonna chiong TTT2 as well! :)

Fucking moodless!

Alas, today I skipped school like nobody's business.
In the morning at 11plus, I went to Northpoint SportsLink to get my New Year shoes and buy lunch back for myself and my mum.
As I was about to leave the house to meet Song Peng at 2pm at Khatib Mrt Station, Jian Wei smsed me to ask if I was going to Bugis later and we waited for him at Khatib mrt station before going together to Bugis.
Starting off, I was doing pretty well with my Feng and Lars and managed to promote after fighting with Song Peng and Jian Wei.
I think I am that kind of person that seriously can't take people's negative comments. I can appear as if I don't give a damn but my mood is seriously affected and nobody knows...
I guess nobody can play well when the mood is affected. The aftermath is worst off but I guess I have to learn to be more magnanimous...
In any case, this week marks the end of some busy projects and ICAs. The impending weeks are even more tiring but I will try my best to persevere. Happy Chinese New Year to everybody! :D

NYP Open House 2012/ More Tekken Tag 2 action please!

This week is definitely a bonus week for all of us. I didn't go school at all on Monday, Thursday and Friday.
I had to go for Audit and HRM tutorials initially on Thursday but I just could not wake up after sleeping so late.
I tried doing something fruitful today but the heart's not bent on doing it.
At around 5.30pm, I went out to meet Boon Kai at Yio Chu Kang mrt station to go to Bugis together for Tekken session.
As some machines have been moved to Serangoon Nexx shopping centre, there are few left to go around and we can hardly play Tekken Tag 2 at all.
Song Peng asked me to play Tekken 6 BR with him most of the times so I just used random characters to play with him. I realise that Feng is a very suitable character for me in terms of techniques and mind games. I guess 1 crucial thing in life is about making the wise choice, and this works well for games as well. 
Even though by the end of the day, my Feng and Lars tag team has gotten 3 losses and 0 wins, I don't ever think I regret using this tag team. Chiong all the way! Just for fun anyway~
I think it is better to go with Jian Wei and Raven together to Bugis for more Tekken action. At least I don't have to go back home alone and there is more fun in chatting and returning back home together:)



>Projects WEEK!!!!

Christmas Celebration at Aunt's house

Christmas celebration today was a little late as Christmas is already over but this was already pre-planned so everyone has made way for celebration tonight. According to the timing, it is just like celebration for Countdown for 2012 as it was exactly 1 Jan 2012.
As I slept rather late at around 5.50am previously after celebrating Countdown night with Noble, Preston and his girlfriend, I only woke up at 3pm in the afternoon. It certainly does not feel good at all sleeping so late and then sleeping for so long. All the time has been wasted for nothing, but this is only once a year so it is quite okay.
I ate lunch and used the computer while doing so before leaving to go to Northpoint to find my parents and sister. My sister called to say that my Mum was going to buy us any disc that we want as our New Year presents.
Choices seem to be fluctuating but in the end I chose a dvd, Zhong Kui dramas, that I have not yet watched before, and 2 at one go as well, since the 1st one consists of episodes 1-20 and the other is 21-40.
Thereafter, my Mum brought me to ManStudio to shop for New Year clothings and I managed to buy some new clothes worth $200 plus. Hehe~
As time was running short and we had to rush to my eldest Aunt's house nearby to my house at Yishun area as well, we went back home to bathe and prepare before going out to their house.
At my Aunt's house, we watched 2 movies, The Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Fast and Furious 5 while eating buffet and having gift exchanges session as usual every year.
This year I got a PUMA brand jacket from my youngest Aunt which fits me exactly in term of size, colour and taste. I also got a sling bag from Eldest Aunt who was the host for tonight family gathering.
Back at home now, in the comfort of my room typing this post, I just realised I had not eaten enough just now during the gathering. I should have at least settled for 2 servings even though I ate quite a lot of Pizzas.



>All right, now's the time for more night snacks and get fatter haha~
>Excellent Puma Jacket!
