Superman...

Listening to : Superman - Five For Fighting.

Once again its the end of the week!!
I'm actually kinda glad i overcame this week.
It didn't end like last week when I was totally drained.
In fact, this week was really good.
Though I had training practically everyday.
I seriously think I did it in my mind.
Staying positive really helped. Even managed to accomplish many study stuff.
The only MAJOR let down was history essay.
I really did put in EFFORT!!! I spent 2 whole nights on it.
But well got 6/25. AHHHH! and next week is test. It seems there's a lotta work to do!
_
Heh considering this weekend break is long.
Labor day on Monday.
Everybosy is kinda ironic. heh. Saying.
Oh its LABOR day. So we gotta labor. -.-.
Heh. Hopefully we can get an old class outing!
_
Recently there's been a HUGE craze over volleyball.
i really like the game man.
Though my hands REALLY hurt.
_
Oh and like this week some ppl in sch really did pull me through man.
I think if it weren't for these ppl.
This week would've been worst than last week.
heh u know who u ppl are!!! WAHAHAH!!!

Bucking up week!

Listening to : Time Machine - The Click 5.

SO the week hasn't really been improving in terms of workload.
Oh well, but at least its improving on attitude! =)
Looks like I'm really trying my best to be positive about everything.
I'm having training literally everyday, but i think I managed to really strive through all of it.
Although today is not really an 'on-form' day.
Gotta try pushing harder.
_
Its also Campaign week for councilors!
Well we put up our banner. "whirled peas".
Apparently bro Paul commented abt it and made THE WHOLE SCH turn around.
So thats a plus point. But it rained on monday. And apparently the ink came off. -.-.
Well we then relied on POSTERS! it kinda achieved its purpose.
Almost everyone who walked by stopped to think and wonder.
What dose the quote mean. Its actually kinda funny man.
Hopefully all 3 can get in man!
_
Oh! and now tuesdays and thursdays are the chiong study days.
Stay in school till 10 to complete all our work and mug!
Thats cool man!! WOOHOO!!!!

finshed??

Listening to : Brighter than sunshine - Aqualung

Well the week is finally over, this has been one of the most shiong weeks ever.
Considering I came home past 8 everyday, and in a sickly condition.
I think it was a job well done.
Well its been kinda crazy, with sports heats, the MOUNTIANS of tests, the never-ending piles of tutorials and assignments, the ever brain wrecking PW and Lastly the random campaigning.
So well. Thank God Its Friday. YES!
Well today, it was rather traumatic. VERY traumatic in fact.
I guess teachers really can't take our class anymore.
Wonder whats going to be the outcome of everything?
Oh well. Looking forward to my weekend break!
BREAK!!! YEAH!!!

Appreciate

Listening to : You gotta be - Desree

Days have gone by and the week is finally ending. The lifestyle of the stressed and pressured.
Its hopefully coming to a break. Weekends!
On the other hand, the pressure will not stop.
As learnt in History, the effects of the Cold War is a build up-effect. Perhaps so is stress?
Ok this week has been one of the toughest.
With the many tests and track events etc. Me coming home at 7 is a luxury.
The week has been so stressful and so many things in my mind.
I never really stopped to appreciate life.
It's kinda the same predicament i had last week.
But this time, I just felt I have to enjoy life more man.
The stress of JC can't go on for 2 years. I gotta start enjoying stuff.
I gotta start appreciating where i am, with what i'm doing, With what God has done for me.
_
Everyday I find myself studying studying and studying, but I don't find satisfaction all the time.
Perhaps the one who brought me down to earth was Daniel.
It was like, I mugged so hard but still did rubbishly for my physics test.
I seriously wondered, then he said this ain't about mugging.
I realised physics is about understanding, having fun.
SOmehow, I managed to do that in O levels.
But I wun stop mugging, now i'll do it in the smart way.
I'll do it in a happy way, breaks will be more often now. WOOHOO!!
_
that aside, recently T24 hasn't been the nicest class.
I realised not just me but EVERYONE is feeling the same way. Too stressed and stuff.
WIth the exception of a few. Today a few ppl almost snapped.
Ms Lee officially SCOLDED the class. THink we gotta fix the problem man.
Perhaps even I'm part of the problem?? AHHH!!!
Time to watch tv...the 1st time this week!

PW TOO MUCH

Listening to : Bad Day - Daniel Powter

It wasn't really a bad day today. But it wasn't a great one either.
Started with going to school early to attempt to complete GP.
I ended up doing only half of it.
Then went to lessons and during break, I thought i could do history.
Ended up doing a lil bit of physics and sleeping the rest of it.
Wow. Physics wa also totally blurred. DId terribly, just by a single digit.
Then today I left school at 8. Spent a whole 3 hours on PW.
This is seriously insane. This is too too time consuming.
I'm Really getting TIRED!!!! Oh well. SIng a Sad song just to TURN IT AROUND!
I'm gonna be ENTHU ABT IT!!
So its like HELLO 2 am nights!!! ahhh!!!!
OK maybe the only thing which was kinda the Napfa test today.
The inflexible Lionel did 55 cm for sit and reach.
WOW!! i was amazed.

Release my potential....PLS

Listening to : Decisions Decisions - The Starting Line
Well today was a REAL tiring day.
I have no idea why. I literally dragged myself around school.
I completed my hist essay outline during my break b4 history tutorial.
After hist tutorial, it went to the bin.
SO!!! I just wasted an hour of my time. SO much for the mugger eh!
Well today was the PERFECT weather to relax.
It was raining at around 3-5. Perfect to sleep.
So ok fine. I intentionally slept during GP. for 15 min.
It was too tiring! AHHH!!!
_
TOday was also the deadline for the council submission of ppt.
Well It's a one slide thing. So this is what i said.
_
"Hi, I'm Lionel Choong and you're gonna love this.
Phenomenal, Fantastic and Happening!
Thats Jeremy, Janice and Lionel!
Vote for us!!!"
_
Well sounds familiar eh?
Today was also sports day heats. Well i ran 4x400 and 100.
100 was first. I was kinda nervous cause i ALWAYS had this problem of my cramping up during competitions without fail.
I was so focused on NOT cramping up, I didn't focus on the race.
Well thank God I hit 2nd place among all.
But it was kinda a sad timing, it was like 12.1 sec.
SUPER SLOW LA!!! I mean yeah despite me getting 2nd and stuff.
Its still REALLY SLOW!
Then I got reminded, yeah dun compare with others to release your full potential.
4x400. Heh. Kinda a sad case thing lur. I'm totally not a 400 runner.

Easter in the East

Listening to : My bro talking on the phone

Thats the end of easter! or rather the day of easter.
Its night now. So its time to mug!
By right its time to mug.
Actually this week has been super slack for me.
I've been resting almost everyday throughout the week.
Well that aside.
Easter was phenomenal. Indeed like the drama production was much better this year.
The best thing was my DAD came.
It was like WOW!!! I was speechless in a way.
I was overjoyed!!! YEAH!
Then today kenny and ashley came. And both recieved Christ!
This could be one of the most breathrough easters ever!
_
Ushering-wise. This week was kinda challenging.
Not in the physical sense but mentally.
A new queueing system was implemented cause of some other events.
Well it was indeed challenging, but extremely fun.
At first i was stunned and kind of WAT!!!
I couldn't change the circumstance, but i could change my attitude.
So it was a great duty! =).

stop to think

Listening to : air-con blowing in my ear

Today is good friday!
So yeah i spent the day not really lazing around but studying and running.
Ok life has been a little tough.
In the sense its tiring. SO tiring i'm sick again.
BUT! I dunno. A sudden thot passed my mind.
I remember a message from somewhere when a speaker.
Without limbs said this.
"many a times we grumble about our inabilities, when we could just change our attitude."
SOmehow thats true. WHen i got sick. I still trained.
In my mind i was thinking, GOD take the sickness away!
Then I realised, wait, I should be thanking God i'm still able to run.
Instead of complaining, life's not all that bad!
Recently I've been wanting to do so many things!
Track, COuncil, Studies, Church, Ushering.
I never really sat to think, Thank God man.
This day 2006 years ago, Jesus died on the cross.
So we can have a new hope, a new life.
Its been a while since I posted such a thing.
But yeah. life has been good. Instead of complaining.
Say, hey thats good. thats great, thats PHENOMENAL.
Accepting our current limits is difficult, but it's a secret to success.

Great Friday

Listening to : An Jing - Jay Chou.


Don't ask me why I'm listening to chinese.
I have been doing so since chinese period when lao shi allowed us to listen.
But only cheena songs.
Somehow I got hooked on
_
ANYWAY!!! The week is over!!!
Its a rather short week for me though.
Today was kinda a slack day.
Spent 2 hours of chinese reading a chinese story book.
A plain waste of time.
_
Managed to play VOLLEYBALL today!
So fun la. Somehow i regret NOT joining volleyball.
Though I know i'll never make it in.
But its a super fun game to play. (my hands just hurt)
_
Well study-wise.
Physics has officially gotten DIFFICULT!!
and mrs chin aint making it easier.
I need physics tuition!
Econs is perfectly ok. We have a great maths tutor.
GP surprisingly i got 17. Not boasting or anything.
But I seriously feel I should fail or somethin la.
Others like Daniel should get those marks.
I did the essay in a grumpy mood. So annoying lur.
_
Easter is 3 days away!!!
the day when JESUS ROSE!!!
When we have a new life and a hope.
Know anything about easter???
GO FIND OUT!!!!
YEah....=)

Listening to - Because of you - placebo
_
The weekend was spent in the Council Camp.
So yeah. From the start, my group name says it all.
My group was called FUN! and it literally is.
Like on the first day, we all already started clicking so much!
Though the tasks they gave us were all very demanding.
Like we have to plan a PERFECT finale dinner and stuff. Which wasn't easy.
Its just like orientation. Just that its a place weher everyone TALKS!
_
SO the next day we all came and immediately started.
Everyone was so cool to work with!
They all flowed really well.
Ok the next highlight was the interview.
Which was really scary. Really REally. Tan Jeck Suan was my interviewer.
Well iu had to leave halfway cuz of church though.
I came back like 745.
When i reached, it was the actualy dinner liao.
Well think things went really well.
We all enjoyed the dinner and stuff. After that we went to bathe.
Thats where the shampoo gang was formed.
All the guys were all bathing then we were sharing shampoo.
SO for some reason we justr called ourselves the shampoo gang.
HAHA!!! lame. Anyway like after a while the camp started to get REALLY FUN.
_
At night while sleeping we all also odered macs la.
We odered it at 1. But fell asleep at 130.
So it seems that ppor delivery guy called us 13 times at 2 am.

Kebradican

Listening to : Higher - Creed
Time is running!! I got another half an hour to rest!
That is before I start work.
Following the timetable actually helps man. HAHA!
Ok well today was like an eventful day!
I woke up LATE!!! mainly cause of my bro.
Cause he apparently crashed and slept in my parents room with me.
Since they're not around. Might as well play around.
So I took a cab to school. Cost me 11 bucks! When i got down then i realised.
DIE. I only got 10 more dollars. Heh...
So school went on rather well...5 hours of consecutive lessons.
ALL of which were actually VERY boring...but had to tahan.
During break we celebrated IVAN'S bday.
HAPPY BDAY IVAN!!!
SO we gave him a BRIGHT PINK anime pillow and a scooby doo boxers.
Ok like it was REALLY funny....haha! The cake smashing part was also rather fascinating.
Considering he smashed it on his face himself.
SO after school went to track. I just realised today.
Its TURF CITY!!! I kinda really dreaded going there.
I went anyway. but thank god i did.
It was a really good training. We warmed up and stuff.
Then ran 5 km...In my mind i was like. DIE!!!
BUt actually it wasn't as bad as it seemed. IN fact. It was really good!
I managed to do it in 23 min.
Just that 2moro's mass pe will be a serious hell.
Other than that everythings gonna be cool.

PTM, without the P.

Listening to : Only One - Yellowcard

Well school has been going on!!!
Life has moved on!
But has Lionel followed?? Well...hmmm i Wonder.
Anyway! Its been rather eventful the past few days.
I'm gonna start being enthu about track.
Cause frankly I'm having doubts about council.
Cause its really going to push me to my limits, Literally.
With the current timetable and the new movements in Usher ministry.
Its really going to be a little tiring for all of us. Though I really want to be in council.
Think i'll seriously consider it man.
_
Well today i had parent teacher meeting. Without the parent la.
COnsidering both my parents are overseas.
It's actually gonna be a little tough surviving on my own.
The talk by Bro Paul was actually REAL boring.
But other than that. He spoke of certain issues.
Which were a little erm....shocking.
So out of the blue. I'm brought down to reality once again.
A LEVEL IS NO JOKE! ok...so it seems.
Other than that. ALvan was TAT NICE to offer me a lift home. YEAH!
_
Well ok before PTM, our class went to far east to eat and to shop around for stuff.
I realised that my class T24 is really cool la.
I mean despite the differences like we can all mix rather well.
I'm still kinda surprised. Anyway!
Today Ms Lee actually came into class feeling a lil troubled.
Like its not her style. So we thought. Man...are we that bad as a class to traumatise her?
Then I realised its just her work la.
Like shes feeling really pressured....so.....T24!!!! muz make ms lee smile.
No more trouble making man! If not she may just quit.
BTW. Ms Lee is like one of the best tutors around.

Listening to : Nothing
I'm so super lazy man!
When you actually want to do something but laziness creeps in?
Ever got that feeling before?
Cuase thats what I'm really feeling now!
I'm supposed to mug/run.
But I'm slacking around. Maybe cause saturday is a rest day for me.
Perhaps? Either that or I'm really lazy.
I'm catching the lazy sickness!
ANyway went to church today.
TODAY is the very first day i DID not serve.
I actually sat with my CG during service.
I actually queued....Its like a culture shock.
Anyway service today was phenomenal. REALLY!!
To see the many people being miraculously healed.
I mean people I know who are physically sick get healed.
I mean how on earth can u doubt that man! Its super cool la!
Ok besides the point. I really do need to start sticking to my timetable.
It states that I'm supposed to be mugging now. -.-
And I'm buying shoes tomorrow.
YEAH!! Finally! No more climacool.
I need many many shoes la.
Racers, Bball shoes, formal shoes, spikes, slippers.
Dunno which one to buy tomorrow. heh.
