Played soccer yesterday afternoon. And had something on at night. Then the sms came. Register by 9.45am for Boulderactive Final. What the hell?? I thought i didn't made it. I asked, and it turned out that one person from the top 8 withdrew for some reason, and the next 3 people are tied with the same score, so all three went in to make it top 10 instead of top 8. Why did they message at night after i have tired myself out?? Met Mantat & Boon Xiu at PS in the morning there. I was the first to climb man. And Idris is the second. Haha. There's another climber by the name of Idris too from SP who tied with me. So i went. I'd say the routes were slightly more difficult then on Friday, but quite doable. But i didn't finish any. I only got 2 bonus. My arms were pumped and i had aches all over my back because of Friday. So, too bad for me. Boon Xiu dislocated his shoulder while doing the second route. Wasted. He could have gotten top three. So top 3 results are first Mantat, second Asri from SP and third a chinese guy i'm not sure who. Boon Xiu got fifth and i got eigth. At least not the last right. Heh. And Ilyas said i can't join novice category for Pumpfest because i qualified for Boulderactive finals. Damn! Anyways, congrats to Mantat and Boon Xiu. Ale TPSC! So now, gonna train for Outram next Friday. I'm not expecting anything, just experience. Till then. Adios.

Woke up at 10am today and went to my grandparents house with my family. Then at 11.45am Cannonz called in a desperate voice that registration for Boulderactive closes at 12.30pm. So he forced me and Ballsriz to rush and meet him at Tamp Interchange and we took a cab to Plaza Singapura. Reached there on time. A bit early actually. Went for Solat Jumaat at Al-Falah then walked back to Plaza Singapura. And so isolation begins. It was longer then expected. It started at 2pm. My turn was at about 6.45pm. Thats long man. Most of the TP climbers were the last few. Finally it was my turn to climb. The first route was a waste man. I hesitated when going for the second last tile. And didn't manage to finish that route. Haiz. The second & third route was ok. Finished both routes. The third route was a bit difficult but managed to finish it. The last route was again a waste. My strength was already draining. Didn't even get the bonus tile. Haiz. And the most disappointing thing is that i could have finished the route, but somehow i didn't. Argh!! So freaking frustrating man. This is my only chance to actually achieve something and i didn't made it. Haiz. By next sem i don't think i can enter anymore novice category. Haiz. So disappointed. At least Mantat and Boon Xiu made it to the top 8. So there's hope for TP glory. Haiz. So disappointed with myself....

Three down one to go. E. Device on Monday was surprisingly manageable. A pass is within grasp. Maths on Tuesday was a killer man! So damn difficult. I thought i had this subject aced. But now i think an A is out of reach already. Wasted man. Went to play soccer for a while in the afternoon before studying at night. Biochem on Wednesday was also manageable. The part which i studied came out. What a relief man. Went to Climbasia with Cannonz after the paper. Signed up for lifetime membership. And here i am now. Unbathed and hungry. Haha. Gonna meet EnthusiasticOne later to go to Climbasia with his friends. Tomorrow is Boulderactive. So i'll have to squeeze in some studying for Biofund on Saturday in today and tomorrow. Ok then. Gotta go shower now. Meeting him at 9.30am later. Adios.

Haiz. Study week has been a total disaster. Studied so little throughout the week. Finally it snapped to me how much time is left. Which is very little. How am i gonna survive the exams man? Well actually, i'm confident i can survive lah, but i wanna score in the exams. I want my GPA to be at least 3. Though it looks bleak now. Haiz. I'll do my best anyways.

Targets

Biochem B

Biofund A

E. Maths 2 A

E. Device C+

TCS B

Java Prog. D ( A pass for this damn subject will do wonders for me.)

PSPS Pass (Of course)

So we'll see if i meet my targets. Hopefully no sup. papers. Best of luck for all those going for examinations next week. Adios. Taking care.

It's study week. So what do you think i'm doing?? Study lah! Ok lah. And a bit of soccer and lepak here and there. Wakakakakakaka. Played soccer in the afternoons last Weekend. Went to school for Biofund yesterday. Then went to Dhoby Ghaut with Ballsmy and Bashfurk to look at some guitars. Went to school at noon today and joined Farid & Co. at library level 7 to study today. Been studying too much of Biochem. Have to start on Edevice tommorow. Played soccer at turf at 5.30pm. Then met up with S.O.M. to take some pictures. So here i am at home. Gonna try to study later. But C.S.I and EPL highlights is priority one tonight. So, hopefully i'll be able to squeeze in some studying in between. Not as motivated to study this study week compared to last sem's study week. Haiz. But study i will. OK then. Adios.

Had the climbers meeting yesterday evening. Started at 6.30pm and ended at almost 10pm. Most of the climbers turned up. So the secretary and vice secretary post were up for grabs first. Haha. Not really up for grabs, but a few names were chosen as candidates for the two posts. The people for the posts were chosen by votes. So democratic. Haha. The candidates for secretary were Nadiah, Fattah, Raodah, Rufi, Lizdah and XX. All girls. Wakakakaka. Anyways, for quartermaster, my name was mentioned, among Imran, Cannonz, Ballsriz, Wak, Salman, Boon Xiu. And Ballsriz suffered a bit of humiliation when he's name was called out and a voice from behind asked," Who Fariz ah??". After Ahmayat briefed the role of a quartermaster, it sounds interesting and i'm interested in the post. I really want to be in the committee and contribute to the team. It would be a dream come true man. Haha no lah, but i really do want to improve the team and know the 'behind the scenes' of the climbing team. So then it was finally the captains post, and Boon Sheng, Firdaus and Rufi were the candidates. But then Jeep called me and Nadiah out too. I really look up to Jeep. He's really a fatherly figure to me in the climbing me. Haha ok lah not fatherly figure. Brotherly figure. And it never occured to me before that he was the captain of the team before. Wow. And Chee too. So the candidates have to present themselves in the meeting room and answer the questions by the other climbers. When it was my turn, i had nothing much to say, and i was rather undecisive in the post that i want. Being a captain would be a big honour, but the responsibilities are big too. I can be committed but i'm kinda afraid i won't do a good job. I hope i can be the vice captain. But i think they've already striked me out because of my undecisiveness. Well whatever it is, I would say that all the candidates for all the posts were suitable and committed climbers, so i daresay the new committee would be a good committee, just as all the previous committees are. I really hope i can get a post in the committee, be it a quartermaster or vice captain. If not, well, it'd be disappointing, but i'm still a climber. Heh. So, till then, Adios.

I saw the way you looked at him
and I kept it deep inside,
So much for something special,
So much for something we had to say
So much for what we had together
All I want to say to you is...

I know I'll never take the place inside your heart;
The place you have in mine,
so I will wait until another comes around
And then I'll watch you walk away

This simple lyrics sums up my feelings..
I'm gonna need more time to be back to normal..

I had one-on-one Emaths tutorial jst now. Haha. KNN classmates. All gone. After ten minutes some of them came. 6 people attended the tutorial. Wow. Anyways, watched Hitch last Tuesday with Fat North and Nadiah. It was a great show to me man. Five out of five stars. Funny and romantic. And good pick-up lines. Haha. I need a date doctor too man. Yesterday was a usual schooling day, accept i went home after school, which i haven't done before on Wednesdays. Usually i just slack in school from 1pn till 6pm, waiting for rock climbing. Saw something which made me pissed off when i came back to school. Actually i dunno why i got upset. Its not like there's anything going on. Why is it so hard for me ah?? Argh!! Anyways going for climbing meeting later. I better start studying this weekend. Adios.

Played soccer on Friday night, Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon. Damn tired. Did TCS over the weekend. Had Biochem lab test first thing on Monday. It was ok. Went late for rock climbing because i tried to finish up my TCS powerpoint presentation. The debrief had bad news. I seriously hope the club won't be shut down because of attendence problem. I haven't missed a single training since last semester. Weeee. TCS is a drag man. My powerpoint slides were corrupted when i tried to open it when it was my turn to present. Shit man. So i didn't present today. Have to present it on Firday instead. Haiz. Just when i though i can get it over and done with. And i have to present in front of another class some more. Argh. Going to watch hitch with Fattah North and some other friends later. Time for some destressing period.

Ok so it has been almost a week since my last post. Went to Sim Lim Square to buy a bluetooth donggle with Ballsriz, Ballsmy & Bashfurk last Saturday. They went on to Mus Centre after that while i headed home to play soccer at Town Park. School as usual on Monday. Went home early from climbing because i was feeling a bit tired. Went tu Mus Centre with Bashfurk & Ballsmy on Tuesday after school. Bought some cheapskate boxers for $1 each. Haha. And met Giwirler, Nurul & Siti during my break and accompanied them in the auditorium.

Did a bit of TCS on Wednesday after school before meeting Rafi to accompany him. Then met Mail & Fair. The four of us chilled at cable tv for a while before going to MENSA to eat. Then i headed for the rockwall. Only me & Jeep were at the rockwall, before Ilyas and his gal joined later. Got a call from my mother during climbing. She was upset that i got a warning letter. Wakakakaka. And so the first of my many warning letters has arrived. Ok lah i'm hoping it's the first and the last. So after climbing i braced myself before entering my house. My mother didn't say much, but i was lectured by my father. Haha. Absent for 8 lessons. 3 Edevice lab, 3 Edevice tutorial & 2 PSPS2. Actually i was late for six of them, but more then ten minutes late is considered absent. Hopefully i won't get debarred for Edevice for sem exam.

Went to school wearing formal clothing today. For fun. Wakakakakakaka. The five of us, Ballsmy, Happy, Ballsriz, Enthusiastic one & Bashfurk wore formal. Actually only Bashfurk and Enthu one have presentation, but all 5 of us wore formal. Took pictures throughout the day; maybe i'll post some of them later. Met Iza & Feny for a while after Biofund at JAE. Ballsriz, Bashfurk, Ballsmy & me went to help Serondeng with Difund at library after school, weel actually three of them help me; i just took a short nap. We went to McD TM for supper before heading home.

I need to start revision. Need to. But how? I'm feeling so darn lazy to study these few days. Argh. Till then. Adios.
