lyrics for today. i think this is one of the very few rap, hip hop, whatever u call it songs that i listen to.

fabolous - it's in the game (nba live 2003 theme song)

yeah... dj clue...dessert storm...ea sports...come on!

nba live...2003... fabolous...who gon' stop me!!?

i hoop with the best of them swooped up the chest of them,
dunked on a bunch caught alley-oops on the rest of them.
i got the lean on the "j" now,
it really don't matter if we play in arenas or playgrounds.
throw it around the back so it look fly when i pass,
just to avoid the block go high off the glass.
i'm killing them out there they gon' have to bring caskets,
this all i hear after the baskets. *swoosh*
but i ain't even warm up
and still pull from where it counts for 3 points and leave the form up.
you must be insane if you give me the lane or perimiter,
the crossover will sprain every limb on ya.
i never woulda, ever coulda
thought i could come off the baseline and jump over seven-footers.
soon as you step out the locker room, you now can see
how live it gets in 2003.

who gon' stop me when i'm in the lane?
i come to entertain, you know its in the game.
who gon' stop me? go and get 5,
i d-up with 5 you know it gets live.

who gon' stop me when I'm in the lane?
i come to entertain, you know its in the game.
who gon' stop me? go and get 5,
i d-up with 5 you know it gets live.

i'm the crowd favorite and I believe the fans
love the way i finger roll it with either hand.
my handles pull it through presses plus i can play the lane
and block shots like bulletproof vestes.
i often be found in the paint waiting for a miss,
so i can slam it back off the rebound.
then i show off with class,
look the other way when i throw off a pass,
call it when i go off the glass.
hope ya'll play better "d",
or i'ma keep scoring until the coach hold his hands like the letter "t".
when i put pressure on the ball they be feeling on lock,
remind 'em of a jewel thief when i be stealing the rock.
shorty over the summer you might have boosted an inch,
but if you ain't ballin like me get used to the bench.
and everybody know i does my thing
and play hard 'til the buzzer ring, yeah.

who gon' stop me when i'm in the lane?
i come to entertain, you know its in the game.
who gon' stop me? go and get 5,
i d-up with 5 you know it gets live.

yeah...dj clue...fabolous...desert storm...ea sports...live...2003
you see it, it's in the game!

thats all.

it's in the game, yo!

i'm waiting for my sis to come out of the bath room so i can brush my teeth and go slp.

since in i'm so free during the period of time, i guess i'll just do some blogging. nth much ytd. unintentionally skipped marketing lecture because samuel told me there won't be any. and in the end? lol. nvm lah. its pretty shiok to start sch at 1pm on two consecutive days. can slp all i want. this is the life man dude.

chengyu gave me a bball jersey and pants cause he's too big for them. quite ex arh. thanks alot sia. the jersey and pants will surely come in handy for a broke guy like me.

went to run one round around my estate ytd. the distance should be somewhere in between 3 to 4 km. but more towards 4km i guess. completed the round in 14 minutes including waiting for the traffic lights. not bad i should say. not very fast but not as slow as i expected.

ran the stairs to my house. 13 floors sia! and after that? i almost fainted. hahahaha. think its because i ran with a freaking empty stomach. ate lunch at 12 plus and ate only one donut at around 3 plus before running at 6. no wonder peng. next time better eat something before i go running. i think my current target is to complete one round around my estate under 13 minutes. cutting down a total of 1 minute is no big joke. but lets try.

shall do some balling later on at night. =)

i'm not feeling well eh. down with sore throat and on the verge of having a fever.

woke up light headed ytd. then prepared and went to meet up with ky and jj. had lunch at tampines while waiting for justin to arrive.

headed down to e-hub after that for pool. not bad eh. noob shooter like me acutally lost some of my matches by one ball. jj and justin left earlier so it was only ky and me. best of 3 series. he won 2 rounds. expected though.

walked around e-hub aimlessly before heading down to kembangan. yeah, went there to celebrate kristen's bday for her with a whole bunch of bit peeps. kristen sure is lucky, had such a sweet bf. hahahaha. good chap i should say, at least thats my first impression.

played monkey, slacked around, ran to 7-11 and then home sweet home. sry arh peeps. had to leave early cause i thought my dad wasn't going home for the night and i was on ther verge of falling ill.

as for today? practically rested and slacked at home for the whole day. need to recuperate.

i've joined ky's team for the standard chartered 10km team category run. most likely will be called team 18s. team 18s because all of the team members are 18 years old. anyway, i need to recover soon and start training. and not to forget, i need to train on my bball also.

my original plan was running and bball on every alternate days starting tml. but since i'm not feeling well, i think i'll postpone the plan until i'm physically ready. ky will be joining me to run, but the prob now is he's not mentally prepared. hahahahaha.

to be honest, i hate running. hate the feeling when ur heart is pumping so wildly and u are out of breath. but u see, ky said he had this vision of us winning the standard chart team cat some day and i was saying don't make the vision someday, make it this year. a more specific target.

so i guess its time for me to wake up, get serious, put everything on the line and just pia bah. afterall, i've not been running much since sec sch days. whether its 2.4km, 5km or 10km, i'll put in everything i've got and run until i'm practically out of breath. this is the real training, not running and not feeling tired, thats keeping fit to me.

and shit, i've not been training on my shooting lately. jia lat. thats all, bb.

how fast is it? it's friday again.

this week was pretty hectic and slack. its kinda slack cause there's no marketing for this week, 4 more hours of free time. but then again, its hectic cause project deadlines are drawing near. my group is done with ob. otbs is almost done. just need to add in some comments and anton is thinking of using adobe flex for our group project. nice idea, but a little bit too difficult for my level. hahahahaha.

marketing project is almost done too. left cutting down of words and highlighting of keypoints. cool eh.

anyway, there was bit captain ball competition on wednesday. pretty fun i should say. my team didn't advance too far for this year. lol. but nvm, everyone put in their very best. as expected, teck wee's team came in first again. champions for 2 years straight, thats quite an achievement. 1e05 wasn't that bad also. coming in second after losing by just one point. exciting final i should say.

2 draws and loss 1 round. thats the result for my team. so sad, no wins. too bad we didn't notice cher haur's talent until the second game. but there's something to be contented with, we were on par with the runner up, 1e05 with a score of 1-1 during the group stage. lol. not bad already hor.

thinking back, i think i made 3 major mistakes. one for each game we played. its my fault during the first game for not doing my defensive job and instead went to help out on offense. its my fault during the second game that allowed 1e05 to tie the game, should have trained on my leg muscles so that i can jump higher. its my fault for all the bad passes in the last game.

captain cocking up? well, that's expected of me. lol. it would be a miracle if i didn't make any mistakes.

well, other than sch, japan listening test and a 5 minutes naruto entertainment, life's as usual for the week.

plans for tml. pooling with brothers and meeting my poly brothers from another mothers to go and celebrate kristen's bday.

oh yah, exam timetable is out. comments? good luck have fun. lol. the timetable seems to get worse every semester arh. freaking hell 7 plus hours of break on 25th aug. two theory based paper somemore.

click to enlarge.

thats all for now. stay tune. =)

went vivo with ky and justin ytd after sch. well, nice trip there i should say. carl's junior for dinner and the walked around vivo with a bloated stomach. got so tired after dinner that i just wanted to lie down and slp.

ky initally wanted to buy his rash vest from the rip curl shop located in vivo. but too bad, out of stock. so went adidas to walk around. i'm planning to buy a new bball cause my current one is already beyond hope.

played foosball in the adidas shop. owned others at first but got pawned later on. hahahahahaha. fun. then it was back to tampines.

ky didn't want to go home yet so decided to watch red cliff. here's a extract of our conver.

ky: u want to watch or not?
me: anything lor, if u want watch jiu watch lor.
ky: oh. i want watch.
me: then watch lor.
ky: but don't accomodate me leh. watch only if u want to watch.
me: yah, i want to watch. so u want to watch?
ky: watch lor.
me: ok. but don't accomodate me leh. watch only if u want to watch.
ky: i want to watch.
me: good, then watch lor.
ky: but i don't want pay money.
me: oh. then walk in straight from the gates lor. then justin, u want to watch?
justin: want to watch, but can't. meeting gf.

so we watched the 11.20 pm show all the way until 2am plus. nice! red cliff is pretty nice i should say. the dialogues quite humorous at times but its kind of lame when it comes to the eight trigram battle formation. there's a second part for this movie, the real naval battle where cao cao got thrashed.

movie poster of red cliff.

oh yah, pretty much done for all our projects already. just need to comment on our codes and maybe add in some new features for otbs. print out and compile ob and think of a second mode of presentation. lastly, compile and cut down on the numbers of pages for marketing. final charge, lets go!

shall end here bah.

winning $10 from ky is a pretty easy job eh.

watched the dark knight today with poly clique.

went down to dhoby ghaut from tp with samuel and nigel before meeting anton there. was late. hahahaha. so missed the front part.

the dark knight is not bad lah. the nice and entertaining dialogues make up for the boring fight scenes.

to both nigel and i, we think that the joker is cool and somewhat cute. he's like the main character for the movie and batman appeared to be an extra in our opinion. anyway, the joker's damn pro in playing mind games. damn nice.

thats the best part for the movie.

poster for the dark knight.

by the way, we did a survey during ob lecture and the results showed that nigel and i are wise ppl. we choose to resolve conflicts using collaboration. as for samuel, he's the care bear type - lovable. lol! no wonder he's known as the ladies' man.

ok lah. short and sweet post. bye.

as i promised. the video of nigel's daring act.


respect man. he's the man. the new balls of steel in bit.

benson: please keep this within the lecture hall.

yah right!

Wednesday, July 16, 2008

today's lecture can be said to be the best thus far.

a dare by anton brought the lecture hall to life and saved us from the hell boring lecture. hell yeah. nigel's the man. everything goes like this. anton, nigel, samuel and i were planning to watch the dark knight tml after sch. i don't know how it happened but one of us brought up the idea of jio-ing some girls to go.

so anton placed a $50 dare to dare us to ask a girl of our choice down. we chose han lin. lol. initially, i was the one taking the dare, but i back out due to some considerations. then nigel accept the dare. steady man. during bus stats break, he really go take the mic from the lecturer and asked han lin out.

debbie sis has the video of it. will post it here when i get the url from her.

steady man. he's the man. he has balls. lets not care what stuff did i huan loh. i just didn't took up the dare. lol.

$50 leh! i'm short of money for this fucking week. i don't care, whoever dare me with money next time, i'll chiong.

anyway, this is the kind of steadiness i've been talking about in one of my previous post. i guess ky, me and gang are getting more matured to do this kind of shit already eh. until now, we are always trying to act our age and lose the passion to create havoc like the old times. doing it on certain occasions really rocks arh?

anyway, plans for this week.

movie with sch clique tml. vivo on friday with ky. grandma house on sat. study bus stats on sunday. doubt i will accomplish much on sunday. lol.

looking at the plan, i think i'm in quite a deep shit. expenses will be sky high and i've already overspent for this week. aiyah. fuck it lah. go out enjoy, don't huan loh money. huan loh after enjoying lah. lol.

went to play bball just now. haix. i think my low self esteem is still getting the best of me.

was playing team match with some members of starlight grc bball team. i actually didn't drive in when i saw the opportunity to and instead passed the ball to a teammate. if i drive in, i know i can score. well, seriously don't know what i'm doing.

things got worse from there. i missed alot of shots and even missed wide open lay ups that i normally sink. what the fuck is this? this is a very difficult obstacle to get by. i've talked to justin to get some advice but ultimately, everything lies on me.

all i could think of when i was trying to bring out some confidence is that i stopped bball for quite a long time. i bowed down to injuries back then and didn't even put on a fight. i'm playing with ppl who belongs to a bball team while i'm nth. thats all i know. these are the thoughts that run through my mind all the time. wah, seriously fuck man. how am i gonna get pass this obstacle?

argh. gonna talk to justin online now. bye.

sometimes if i shout,
it's not what's intended.
these words just come out,
with no gripe to bear.

Sunday, July 13, 2008

yo. i'm back minutes before midnight.

hmmmm. went to safra's sakura for dinner with my family and aunt ytd. nice! i think i was pretty much off form during dinner. didn't eat as much as i usually did during a buffet. only ate 6 plates of food. way too little i guess. nevertheless, it was a nice dinner as my aunt treated us. =)

while eating, samuel called me to tell me that tp band came in first for its competition. congrats man. tp now has a gold band. i still remember that sometime back, samuel told me that as according to jonathan, tp band may come in third.

i then went on to ask how many competitors are there. there were 5. i remember telling him, that third place is not enough. being first should be their target no matter who they are competing against but i was shot down by samuel that the goal should be realistic. so now, see see see see see!!! u all came in first. so much for shooting me down arh. lol.

anyway, practically sat in front of my computer playing psp the whole day. then went down at 6 plus to do some training for bball until 9. 30.

so it was some shoot around first before some of the guys there wanted to play team match. so played 4 straight matches. won 3, lost 1. not bad. more improvements on shooting. becoming a little bit more consistent already.

after that, watched 2 uncles go one on one against each other before going in to the court to do some more shooting practice.

soon after that, some guy challenged me to a one on one match. he's good but i won 7-4. after the game was set, he asked for a round 2. i was thinking that maybe he analysed my playing style and will go full force on me this time. got abit nervous, however, its me who figured him out and went on to win 7-1. lol. but still, i think i'm not good enough. alot of rooms for improvements. thats all lah.

tml's monday. how boring.

Saturday, July 12, 2008

woah. i think my posts are becoming more and more like naruto manga. publish once every week! lol.

well. i think it all comes down to me being lazy to update. life's as usual i think. i'm a boring individual afterall. lol.

all thanks to anton, otbs project is more or less done. i did something afterall ok? i designed the blog admin login page with samuel. thats alot of work hor. lol. seriously, i admit it will be a miracle if i can come up with the codes for the group assignment. only a psycho would give a group assignment like that. lol. hope mr jackson don't see this.

but serious, doing a blog site similar to blogger with friendster's friend adding feature will kill man. u need what nusoap, fckeditor, mysql and joomla to make it possible. all i know was their name and functions. connecting them together is shit cause i don't even understand a single thing. all i did in otbs was to copy exactly what mr jackson has shown on the screen. lol. so much for a bit student arh? i swear i'll die during internship if they ever ask me info tech stuff.

marketing and ob are near completion. yes! after that, free time. eh wait. no! there's still jap role play. wah fuck. don't ever take language cds. it'll kill u. nth is more irritating than coming up with the scripts and translating it into jap. worse of all, there's no free and good english to romaji translator on the internet!

i think my next cds won't be good either. introduction to game development. lol. if there's more coding to do. (-_-''') and if all my classmates are like those geeky, introverted students with specs that has thick frames and big lens. _l_ lol!

played bball on monday with samuel. lost the only match we played. got a little pissed though. not because we lost but because samuel looked as if he gave up without putting much of a fight. thats not the way man. chiong them even when we are losing, who knows we may just turn the table around like we always do?

tuesday was a pretty good day. shared ben and jerry's with samuel. lol. i'm easy to please eh. lol. nice but expensive arh. but nvm, my mother says, "when it comes to food, don't huan loh money". lol! ky and my best excuse to refrain ourselves from feeling guilty and sad.

wed, long day. thurs, boring day. ytd, screwed up day. seriously has no comments for lenny aw.

played bball on my own ytd. well. played a match, but didn't count the scores. a full court match. wah. i shot alot of air balls arh. but also managed to sink a few and gave one block. but still, not good enough. as usual, a serious lack of confidence. its up to me now. haix. it'll be a very difficult obstacle to overcome.

oh yah. bit captain ball tournament on july 23rd. was forming my team and some of the peeps that i want on my team was taken by teck wee. he was faster arh. so now, they are the all star team. jia lat. but nvm lah. lets just put up a good fight and nv give up until the end. lol. better don't look down on the year 1s also. crouching tiger hidden dragon arh.

ben and jerry's chocolate fudge brownie. oishii! lol.

thats all for this week. lol. no lah. thats all for now. will update if i have the time.

Sunday, July 06, 2008

woah. its almost 7th july. my previous post was back on 1st july. didn't blog for quite a few days arh?

well, don't dare to say that i'm busy. its just that life's been plain? nth much happened. didn't went bballing due to leg injuries. that banged up thigh of mine was a serious case, climbing stairs was an uphill task.

so its outing with ky and jm for 2 straight days and expenses were sky high. finally got my pay from the pc show on thursday. a whooping $222. then walked around bugis for awhile before going home.

friday was a spent walking. from bugis to jalan sultan to suntec and then back to bugis. i didn't bought anything but ky did. total damage? at least $90.

saturday was the best. went pooling with ky, jm, waikit, peiren, jun liang, chung lim, nicholas, jing wen and gwee. after that, arcade. no shooting of dinosaurs this time round, only daytona and mario racing. lol.

after that, had late supper with ky all the way until 2am before walking home. we were discussing why nowadays we were less havoc and chaotic. well, it all comes down to us being 18 years old. time to start acting our age and like a young adult. and stop doing stupid things like those we did when we were 15.

but hell, i still miss those stupid times.

i miss scaring security guards. i miss bullying little kids. i miss dunking ky. i miss bondaging kwoky on his bday. i miss pranking no one else but ky even if its others' bday. i miss running around sch just to show ky a frog. i miss running around sch just to get everyone drenched. i miss the gang banging scene in ubin. i miss throwing oranges into people's house.

thats what we did when we were 15 and 16 years old. guess we are too old for those now. lol.

anyway. went bballing today. injuries are all healed. didn't do shooting drills for a few days and i got a little rusty. so it took awhile for me to get back in momentum. then playing one match with some china guys. won 7-4 i think. scored 3 points by shooting. one of them were from three point range. after giving my team a 3-0 lead, i assisted them and played defense.

and i blocked the tallest player during that match. i think he's 190 plus cm. lol. nice!

after that, went down to bedok to cut my hair. ok, cut isn't the right word, trim is more suitable. sheng shiong with my parents next. hahahahaha. my mother always goes to the supermarket when i'm super full after a meal. due to psychological reasons, i ended up not taking a single shit. this time round, i went there with an empty stomach. 3 cheers for sweet revenge, grabbed snacks and food like there's no tml. lol.

thats all. there's sch tml for me. so sad.

Tuesday, July 01, 2008

holy shit #1: i have a banged up thigh.

holy shit #2: i had a blister on my feet.

holy shit #3: i burst that blister.

holy shit #4: i'm limping.

the four holy shits summarises my condition now. went bballing with samuel after sch. was supposed to be a normal shoot around, so i wore slippers down. but we ended up playing matches with some guys.

my training really took effect in real game situation, which is good. however, playing without covered shoes really sucks. my slippers snapped so i had to played bare footed. before long, blister developed and i actually burst the blister while playing through the pain. how nice. even had my thigh banged up when one of the guys accidentally collide into me with his knee. that makes the situation even nicer.

so games results? played 4 games. won 3, lost 1. and won a 1 on 1 game against samuel. score 5-0. highlights of the day? a nice and resounding rejection from me to my opponent that sent the ball out of bounds. =)

bball aside, got back all the results for mid sem test, 3 a's and 1d. lol. got 42 out of 50 for marketing. nice!

pay's finally ready. will go down to collect it when i have the time.
