And btw... SA RUGBY GOT THIRD!!!! WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Lets see..
Lets do a rundown of how many months we have of formal school.
Its one week away to the June holidays,
Afterwhich we have 4 weeks to mug our asses off,
2 weeks of Block Tests,
Another 7 weeks after that to the Prelims.
Beyond that..
1 month after Prelims to the As.
And thats it!
Anyway, what i want to say is this. Love the school or hate the school, I think we should all put these negative things aside and cherish the last few weeks of formal school life that we are going to have. After 12 years of formal studying and day after day of slogging, this era of our lives is coming to an end very very soon in a matter of days. Cliche as it may sound, Chong had a point back then we he said that this is our last year that we are going to be in the same "community" with girls our age. And for some of us its only our 2nd year! But well thats the reality of things. So while you are digging your nose so close to your books do take a few moments to cherish the last few hours of school life cause you're never ever getting them back. Those retarded moments when you make fun of people and don't get killed on the streets, those moments when you looked like crap when you're stressed and you don't feel out of place cause everyone's stressed out too, those moments when you said the most retarded things to your eye candy only to realise what are stupid thing you have done, those days of lugging textbooks and TYSes to school, those days of going to CCA and hoping that it would end soon, those days of cursing your PE teacher when he asks you to run 2.4, those days of trying to pon school whenever there's a test, those days sleeping during lectures and most importantly, those EVERYDAYS that you get to spend with some of your closest friends. Beyond school where would you get that opportunity and privilege to see those people you hate or come to love every single day? So if you have survived reading this long post, I really hope that you cherish those minutes left you have of formal school life. Who knows by the time you read this your formal school life could end in a matter of seconds.

surprise, surprise.
it was reported in the New Straits Times a day after lil red dot [LRD] officially got the rights to hold night races. Sepang International Circuit chairman Mokhzani Mahathir said part of the new conditions of extending the racing rights contract for another 5 years were night races.
even the blind would've seen that blinding flash of expected coming.
anwhows, LRD's night race would be a street circuit. that'll whoop any track circuit at night any day. you got the whole city atmosphere and night-scenery-cum-night-lights thing going on. in my opinion, it'll always be better than just asphalt, grass and walls in a track circuit.

F1 comes to the little red dot!
an F1 street circuit in singapore with a 5 year contract with F1 and another extendable 5 more years could potentially equate to 10 years of street motor racing in singapore!! singapore's so serious about it that they're gonna build a permament pit area. cool shit, right? okay, i don't know about you guys but im pissing in my pants with exictement.
anyways, race begins late next year. who's up for tickets?

Get busy living or get busy dying.
Theres a hell lot more to life than just chasing girls, studying, pool, movie... The list is endless... We need to get busy living... Find something interesting and delve into with your heart and soul. Be it music, religion, sports, knowledge etc. And what about our "SJI camaraderie"? Was there really such a thing? Does it still exist? Hmmmmm... 5 cents for your thoughts....

SAJC has done it again!
A truly wonderful standing against the likes of other JCs in Singapore. Truly the significance of our PW results reflects very much on the students of SAJC and the fact that the administration is overjoyed at the fact that the entire cohort passed and 70% of us obtained As, Bs and Cs there should be little reason for us to feel dissatisfied. So to those of you who are dissatisfied, disappointed and feel distaste about the PW results please do not be. Instead, we should all rejoice with the same mood that the administration is doing since obtaining results like these has already become something that they are proud of. To sum up this post, let us move forward and continue in the true spirit of our school - Up and On!
Friday, April 13, 2007
Opps! PW screwed it again!
I am sitting in the bloody school com lab typing on its dysfuntional slow computer, penning my thoughts on the PW results this year. Just imagine......70% of the school achieved a grade of C and above..they seemed so satisfied..wonder how RJ is doing. I got a bloody D which will be a stain on my A level cert. My whole class got Ds except for three ppl. If i got a C, I wouldnt feel so bad. I feel like shouting and crying....i just dont know what to say about this. Its seems to me like failing an important exam. Now i am terrified of A levels. What if next year i dun get a good grade with Ds and Es? Where do I go? Furthermore, to add to my worries, I recently did a test and studied for it, however my memory failed me!!! I am turning stupid!!!!! sorry guys i am venting here i dun know where alse i can do it. My whole world is crumbling down on me. I am doomed to failure.

Post-Block Test Trauma
Friday, March 23, 2007
Spiritual carthasis
A complete rejection of faith.
Disillusionment.
Lack of trust.
"That great big gap in the heart"
(I desperately need help)
There are so many ways to express this breakdown in spiritualism, mind not just a breakdown, a COMPLETE breakdown... But what is the cause? More importantly does it really matter? Having lived through nErly 17 years with this dysfunctional relationship, no major incident has happened... Much like our BTs, you won't know it till it hits home, but even before that you just couldn't care.
But I believe it matters, I believe in the monolithic creationist view of the world. There is a God, or many depending on what religion you might believe in. The highest of authorities who grants us the freedom to live our lives, asking oonly that we praise his name. Yet this isn't what I've been doing. Quite the contrary in fact... But lets not go into details eh? Before I start spilling all those dirty little secrets which are so drearily dissaproved of in public. Ironic isn't it...
So why the use of such a hyperbolic adjective? Might have been a bit too harsh I guess, but thats exactly how I feel now. I don't trust in God anymore. Not cause I have stopped believing in his omni-potent nature, but because of the essence of the faith. Looking at it from a dark sardonic point of view, I feel that some people trust in God because they're afraid. They've heard of the afterlife and pissed their balls worrying over it. To "ensure a place in their school of choice", they psych themselves into a reluctant commiment. I just absolutely find this disgusting.
There has to be another reason why people believe in a God. But most of the time it's just too abstract to even begin quantifying. But what I'm hoping for is that one of you blessed souls could possibly prod me in the right direction to nirvana....
Nigel...
Ps. You might wanna block me for the next 2 days or so... I'm abusing my new webcam....

Back to SJI
With Daryl
Sigh...just realised how much i miss the school. I havent gone back this till today. Had a nice conversation with mr Sydney Tan. He asked us to sign his guest book. We had loads of nice conversations with many teachers. Too bad Miss tan had to go for lesson and was too busy to talk. Practically every teacher we met said to Daryl , " Oh you are back again!" All the teachers kept emphasising the importance of A levels.....i am scared.
Today's chem paper is the worst paper i have ever sat in my entire life. It is a confirm U. I think I might be glad to be in MSP cause it would force me to actually get down to studying. I sat near someone *ahem during exam though. I doubt the person even noticed me lah.
Anyway watching phamtom of the opera this week end....so excited yupps

Wednesday, February 21, 2007
I've caught the bug...
The very first time I saw you,
Was special how we met.
You took me by complete surprise.
I knew my heart was set.
As days flew by, we talked again,
But you never seemed to care.
I tried my best to help you out,
By a favor here, or a favor there.
Although I made a fast approach,
Our friendship grew and grew.
I realized how deep I cared,
But the feeling I felt was new.
In time I became attached to you.
From a hug, I wouldn't let go.
I soon saw how close we were,
And the feeling was good to know.
For you, I wrote sweet letters and songs.
You were on my mind all day.
The thought of sleeping was nowhere near,
Unless I knew you were okay.
It hit me then, what I was in
-A unique and precious love.
For the person I said was only mine,
Was an angel sent from above.
The minutes without you turned into days,
And the seconds with you flew fast.
I could only wish to see you more,
And make each moment last.
The times I spent with you,
Were what made my heart complete.
I knew one thing for sure,
Without you, my future was obsolete.
And now, we love just the same,
As it doubles day by day.
I stare deep into your precious eyes,
Yet I'm still speechless to what I should say.
With you, I'm in a whole new world.
You bring out the best in me.
It's hard to picture you not there,
When you taught me who to be.
Yes, the road ahead gets hard,
When things may only seem rough.
But because you and I try so much,
We'll stay strong and get by tough.
Though problems may lie ahead someday,
And either of us could be right;
I promise to always be by your side,
And I promise my heart, so hold it tight.
And so, each night, beside my bed,
When there's only bright stars to see;
I pray that we may never give up,
And will always remain you and me.
gawd I hate these blasted hormones...

Theme for February 2007
Alrighty, like Daryl said, CNY is a time for looking into mirrors and planning for the future...
So, I thought we should have something like a theme for every month so at least there's something thought provoking and insightful on the blog, other than the usual rants about school. So as I was saying, perhaps since it is CNY, we really should sit down and think about our goals for this year.
Theme for February: What do I want to achieve by the end of 2007? And how will I go about doing it?
Well I can't start it off as I haven't really had much time to think about it, so please feel free to start the ball rolling... Happy CNY all, save the cookies for me!
Cheers,
Nigel

Likewise
"I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words each hour, each day, everyday, until the words become as much a habit as my breathing, and the action which follows becomes as instinctive as the blinking of my eyelids. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success…. I will act now for now is all I have. Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy. I am not lazy. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed. I am not a failure. I will act now. Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place. I am the person."

Blood donation drive.... and some angst
While the rest of you slackers were in class admiring the refreshingly pink bandage on the blood donors, I was pissing my balls off sitting on the damn chair waiting for the nurse to prick me... Seriously.... Though the point wasn't that big, it did give me a sense of immense satisfaction (not pleasure) knowing that I have finally contributed something to society... Or the poor sod lying in hospital due to a heroine overdose. Whatever the case is, I just felt this sense of camaraderie when I did it with my classmates.
The 6 of us brave souls went in, consumed with battle hunger. Eyes, and veins, crimson as a blood of lake. The first adversary, the blood test. It was like having a bayonet being driven into the soul of my finger. "Oi! Don't ruin my chance to be the next Clapton!" Ya ya ya... Damnit, I was put into PES A. Lying there, chained to the chair, I started having second thoughts. Then the needle came. I cried.
Heh alright so it wasn't that bad... The only thing that hurt was the blood test, and it really was just a small prick. Just imagine Brendan slapping you, thats about how pain it is :) The needle used to extract my blood really was huge, but I honestly didn't feel a thing. AND AND AND at the end they give this pretty bandage and tie it on your arm... I think I'm addicted to blood donation...
Lets see.... Angst... Damn I hate puberty... I keep getting into blocks during my work, there's always a dull moment during lectures when I fall asleep and it becomes a bang-Nigel session all over again. Everytime I think about prelims, the numbers just piss the hell outta me. We've all got less than 30 weeks till our prelims, and here I am going nowhere even with my mediocre workload. It just gets to a point where even the slightest inspiration to study is immediately crushed and flicked away... Yes its a metaphoric expression for something green and somehow slimy-hard... Thats just about how little I actually care about my studies. Guess what I should do now is to take a long hard look at my priorities and goals aye? Damn I hate puberty...
"I come bearing gifts! I'll give you a hint, its in my diapers and its not a toaster..." Nigel
im killing myself over this assignment question - last minute work, no surprise. had a week to do but yours truly decided to leave it for the night before.
"With reference to examples, assess the effectiveness of the sate in economic development."
what so difficult?, i hear you ask. my teacher gave us 11 sets of readings to read and 4 other websites with enough info to fill a mini version of the "concise world encyclopedia" just to answer that one lousy question. i feel like taking all of the readings and the com [cant take the web sites] and shove it up a hole of his somewhere.
just shoot me now.

chum =)
FINALLY
to me SJI was a home with love and warmth, so that's why i'm the SJI-lover (according to Brendan). SAJC to me is a stepping stone to university and i didnt like somethings about the school. A levels made it WORSE. Imagine going home at 7pm everyday, sleeping at 12am, waking uo at 5.30 to get to school on time, if not u'll be 'humiliated' by the discipline comm, forced to sit outside the GO... and if didnt join the line on time for assembly, u could most probably land urself in DC.
Now, u might imagine WTH am i doing so late at night? I'm trying to complete my research and notes for bio and start researching for history sem. Not that i'm dont want to be involved in these, but the activities in school can be too much to handle. Stress! what's worse? datelines that seem impossible, teachers thatdont give a damn whether u have the time to complete his/her hw(not all though) etc. these are what made school experience for some of us bad. Think it's gross? CCA ROCKS! LOL. Go figure.
I'm proud of my academic achievements in SA and i believe i can do more than what i can now, with the support of the gang and the pple around. However, this often lead to very stressful situations that is beyond our mental and physical capability. I think this is the rational for us Josephians to group together - as a defence mechanism to help us through this leg of our lives. I'll say, it's great knowing these guys, cos they helped me A LOT through my life in Sa. Though i'm not very active, nor am i always present during their outings, i must say, knowing that there are pple to tok cock with, lame with and laugh with is more than what i asked for.
Ok, i might not be making much sense here, it's LATE and DAR doesnt work well late. Be signing off here.

More pictures
Pictures of 2006
jeremy's birthday.. and the crap we made him do
mugging sessions before promos.. which we all eventually did damn well in.
that SYF thingy. all of us played some role or another no matter how gay it was.
and those other random pics we took when we first entered sajc..
and essentially this is what we are.. no matter how much we curse the school admin
and tok bad abt student councillors or gossip abt teachers..
no matter how different we are. we are so much alike.
haha guess this is the more meaningful post by me.
ashiq.
LALA
haha. i'm trying to work on the links now.
i initially tot the blog would kinda flop but HEY the sji spirit stays strong.
no one would expect that as we move into a new world we would stay as strong as we are hanging out together pissing others together making hell lot of noise together and simply enjoying each other's presence. i bet all the other ppl muz be damn jealous seeing us this way! hahaha or they could think we're jz gay!
HAHA.
but jc life would probably not be as fun and sch would not be worth coming to if not for the early morning tok cock sessions, after sch tok cock sessions, before cca tok cock sessions and many other more tok cock sessions.
and not forgetting our inaugural dinner and thanksgiving dinner at the beginning and end of each term! and all those dinners and lunches and movie sessions we all had together.
its interesting that we nvr get bored of each other's presence and its hell cool. anyway block test 1 is coming and lets all work our asses off again so that we can all see our names on that achievements board and declare sji domination! hahaha. ok well tts it i'm still figuring out links so ya if its up check it out k!
ashiq
and with all that talk about everyone being all emotional lately, including me,
just wanna say, cheer up fish!
ironic, ain't it?
guess being emotional isnt reserved exclusively for the girls.
chum
My lament
Please do not get so emotional, though most Josephians are. Work and stress may come our way and destabilise us but we should stamp them down and move on.
Was just readin' through Daryl aka SJI lover's diary. The part about the SJI prayers, cheers and song really sparked me to reminisce the past and I realised I took them for granted in SJI. I dont noe whether you guys felt the same way but I think you might have felt a tinge of it. I still remember myself wishing to get out of SJI at the end of sec4 to newer greener and fresher pasture of JC life.
However, after going through one year of hell, I really miss SJI. I really now value what tangible or intangible things we got and experienced there. With wonderful teachers and efficient administration, a nice warm fresh campus, nice canteen food, wonderful talks by Bro Michael and Sirhan, efficiently planned events, nice catholic environment with no attempts to evangilize any non catholic, brotherhood we all share, blatant racism, open-mindedness and bluntness, we really had a great deal of fun. I think I am going to turn in to an SJI lover soon. Anyway you guys are the source of the SJI spirit in SAJC and we must stick together no matter what.
I love our dear chapel.
Please get touched by this post.

We are getting a face lift!
Well, Shiweeeee mentioned something about the current trend of emotionally enraged, hormonally imbalanced teenagers and how the internet is chocked full with their internally-warped manifestations... Well I offer a different view, I believe that such a angsty process actually helps us grow, depending on how we get through it. I feel that it is at this particular period when we're extremely self critical, and hopefully through errrr... multilateral support and understanding, we can emerge perhaps stronger and better than before. After all, isn't that what life is about? Learning about ourselves and growing out of our osiduous traits... But of course we can't possibly submerge ourselves into the refuge of depression... We've gotta bounce back. He also suggested having some humorous inputs. But like what??? It seems kind of pointless to just insert a picture of Sirhain poledancing etc. Or is it? Haha... Perhaps maybe our trademark satire remarks? Or my personal fav, the dark sardonic humor... Well I guess its up to each individual to contribute their own quirky style of laughter. Just please dont provide a sound clip of how your sis snorts when she laughs...
Well, back to my first post. This is sort of like our place to encourage each other through whatever means we find legitimate. A platform where we can share our thoughts and feelings. Its one thing to talk about a problem in school. Its a different thing to actually get down to the process of writing it, where we have the opportunity to craft our thoughts into coherent sentences, and perhaps even provide insights that may not surface when we talk about it on the spot. Also, due to our (insert hyperbolic adjective) timetable committee, we have extremely little time with each other, at the risk of sounding gay..... Furthermore, there are soooo many other distractions in school, whereas at home we can view the posts at our leisure and give it our full attention.
Anyway, Chum, let us know whats going on if you dont mind typing it here... All i can say is this:
The wise don't expect to find life worth living... they make it that way.
Life is really too short to waste it being depressed for too long, I learnt that last year and its really changed my outlook. I think... haha... so snap out of it soon yeah? We'll definitely be here for ya.
Yeah one last thing... We need a group photo.... haha....
ok just random spam shiq and i found on youtube.... hope it plays...
Its pronounced.... Neeeee geerl
"what hurts the most" by rascal flatts.
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don’t bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I’m not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I’m ok
But that’s not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin’ to do
It’s hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I’m doin’ It
It’s hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I’m alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin’ with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Not seeing that loving you
That’s what I was trying to do
