Holiday is here but my blog seems to be dead. Dont feel like blogging or maybe, not much time for blogging cos i've been enjoying life so far! (except for the bloody DIP) of course. darn. and apparently my tagboard is flooded with spam too, ill change it as fast as possible, no worries. and stop spamming you bloddy idiot. (i dont know why suddenly 'bloody' shows up, watched to much brits shows i guess)
last time i blogged was last wednesday, thats more than a week! well, i wanna recall the last week past by so quickly.
well wednesday and thursday was filled with movies, series and lan gaming with my close friends here in hall. there is no fixed sleeping time, play means play. movie means movie! well i guess theres no better way to start a holiday with time spent with your close friends doing things you like to do.
thursday night we went out to catch 17 again. me and joce went to marina sq just to find out that tickets are sold out, then we met yiting and von at dhoby to check out plaza singapura and found out theres no tix there too, and finally we stopped at cathay to watch 16 again! it was a midnight movie, not as planned. not many seats because friday was labour day, which noone of us remember. well, movie was fantastic, the company even more! went walking after the movie to a nearby supper place, chatted and chatted till damn late, and waiting for the NR buses to come. guess what, we're at the wrong busstop! so after so much waiting (and seeing some girls puke and some prostitutes pick up guys) we decided to cab home, me, yiting and joce back to hall, and kong and von back home.
friday was concert enginner BBQ. to put it in one word. not fun. ok thats two. then it shall be notfun. seriously speaking, company there wasnt that great, kinda missed the small and cosy family back in jc. doing the same things, just more closesly bonded together. wish thing can change next year!
saturday, was finally a tennis day! after 2 weeks of absence because of the stupid exam, finally me, yh, mx and ivan got together to smack some balls again. most importantly we managed to stay close even after going our own different ways now. (: after that me, yh and mx went to vivo. different reasons. me for insinyur camp preparation, and both of them for a double date. well, i joined the awkward company for lunch and promise myself not to be a lightbulb during a double date anymore. then i went to the insinyur beach game testing. to tell u the real truth, didn't enjoy it as much as i thot i would (and my expectation then was already very low, so guess how did it go.) other than catching up with mu og mates and old friends, the camp prepartion and game testing was full of crap. i dont have it anymore in me. you know the high feeling when u're in orientation camp. i better get some soon though, or my OG next camp will be dead having a GL like me :D
well the next week was filled with sleepless nights and stayovers! i dont mean staying somewhere else, but people staying in my room! haha, basically because they are kicked out from hall during the holiday, and my room is the only place they can go back to hall and play together. well, i love this closeness (: we would spend time during the night playing, lets say from dinner till morning, and then i NEED TO GO TO SCHOOL at 9am for the bloody DIP remember? thats when they sleep and when i come back around 5pm, we will start playing again. (of course without me for awhile cos i need to get a short nap before another round of sleepless nights of langaming and then going to school again) monday-friday. yeah, this week was totally a no-sleep week! (thats kinda hyperbolic but that will do) left4dead and warcraft 3 TD and hero defense was the main game. everyday. movies and series in between to prevent us from going crazy.
of course in between the gaming and going crazy we still went out! (to prevent people from calling us geeks and no life people) haha. tuesday was one day before evonne's birthday so we went out to plan a surprise party for her! they went to eat dinner at city hall first before i catch up with them and prepare the final surprise at esplanade rooftop! well, why i wasnt there for dinner? cos i need some sleep after the gaming and school. haha. daphne was LATE with me too though, come to think of it, we always are the late ones. haha. but thats good! because then the two of us can prepare the surprise :D we played sparklers at midnight and taking photos and eating cakes and chit chatting there! (well, all credits go to kingkong of course (: the planner!) after that wing sing drove all of use back to our homes and me,yt,kong,and von back to my hall room! after a short nap for me, we went back to gaming till my lesson starts, again.
thursday night we went out again for an after exam party organised by NTU CS. well, our dear yt 'forced' us to go there. :p haha, it was fun indeed! we went to taboo (apparently yiting said its some gay bar, and apparently on that day its just some club) and hang out there till morning. met the MJ people there too! raz, apple, mel, robin and another NIE dancer i forgot the name. :p drank abit, played some card games (which me and kong cheated very well) and danced on the dance floor? (wouldnt call that dancing though). the highlight of the night was some fight over there. raz was punched on his face while trying to prevent the fight, but the main guy who got beaten up real bad was bleeding profusely from his head, but well, these kinda people, we gave them advice to go to the hospital (benefits of having a nurse in our group :P) but all they care about is to fight back and protect their "bros." went out for supper after that before cabbing back to hall. btw, noone of us got drunk.
and friday just zoomed by me because since yesterday they all went back to their own places already to prepare for the thailand trip from today to next wednesday. and i cant go because of my stupid DIP project. perfect. well, now it feels kinda lonely here alone, with nothing to do, and a room to clean. (sleepovers for one week doesnt involve cleaning up you know) but most importantly i kinda missed the company and noise and all the sarcastic comments. well wednesday is not that far, gonna miss you guys till then! but on the bright side, i can get some sleep now :p
thats all about the things that happened last week and this week! and the descriptive essay is done, now comes the other type of essay.
if you notice the title of this post, do you ever wonder, what does it take to live your life to the fullest? if you read my post which is filled with gaming, movies, and stuff, would you call it a 'no life'? you tell me. im guilty of it too. when i see dota gamers out there, what first comes to my mind is 'what a "no life" life!' spending day and night playing the same game all over again, speaking in geek terms and stuffs, its just uncool. when i watch big bang theory, sometimes i pity them for having no real life! if you know what im saying. but now, i think twice. our society condemn people who enjoy being in the virtual world rather than living in the real world, we call them geeks, we judge them as running away from their lives. the cool people enjoy their lives, going out with friends, road trip, hitting bars and clubs every night, overseas holiday and stuffs. while people who study, or so called muggers, are just nerds with no life.
well for me, i know now that life is more than that. more than hitting clubs. more than dating a gazillion girls, more than gaming, more than studying. life for me is enjoying every second of it with my closest buddies and with those i love most. well, who cares of what stuff we do, what stuff we talk about. i know that every moment i spend with these close friends are those moments which make my life enjoyable and fulfilling.
think about your friends who doesn't care about what clothes you are wearing, about how do you talk, how do you eat. friends who doesnt judge you for what you do, friends who actually care about you. about what you think. well, for me, true friends are those where you can be yourself around them.
who cares when people look down on you, who cares when people talk back behind your back, who cares when the popular guys don't want to hang out with you, well, with friends like those i have now i couldn't ask for more. well you know who you are of course.
whatever you do with them, be it spending your night on a club somewhere getting drunk, or be it snuggling under a blanket and watch your favourite movie, or maybe spending the night on the study room for the test tomorrow, whatever you do, you will feel that its worth living. or at least thats what i feel.
i hope i, too, am someone like that to many of my friends out there (:
hmm, and think about it, why suddenly i talk about these stuffs. i think its because of How i met your mother and gossip girls. XD haha, well, those shows made me realize the importance of friendships in my life. (:
this is a superbly long post. seriously, if you read all of those above. get a life.
reminiscing the past (:
