after like one week, i'm finally back. hard to believe that ppl like ruixin actually asked me to update my blog when she always complain that it was so long, wordy and boring. hahahahaha. i guess its because the boredom during the holidays is killing her and she need some really long blog post to help her kill time. the past week was a hectic one. damn hectic i should say. but relax, this time, its not because of projects, its because of fun and enjoyment.

warning. as this post is my first official m18 post, its gonna be quite long. filled with words.

updates to kick off. first, there was this 3 days 2 nights 1e05 chalet from 4th march to 6th march. not bad, pretty enjoyable. had bbq on the first night and after that, it was full time slacking, talking, gambling and watching of movies. power! oh yah, photos of the first night will be posted soon. anyway, let wahid and gang taste the power of my crapping skills. lol.

after the chalet, i went home and met up with brothers straight after that. how can i forget? its jun jie bday mah. big event. there's always a 7 to 8 days special ritual during 3rd march to 9th march cause of our birthdays.

played pool with brothers. not bad arh, long time no play, all can still so pro. and seriously, the best thing when brothers get together, its jj and ky combining to talk jiao wei thats very entertaining.

had supper with them on saturday. they went to the it fair at suntec and i went to my grandma house, so we met up at bedok block 85 market to talk cock and eat. not bad lah, jj counted that ky spent a total of $14.50 on supper cause no one wants to split cost with him. lol!

and ytd was my bday. ok lah. just another day for me personally. the special thing is that my mum gave me an hong bao right on my birth time. 01.02 in the morning. met up with wahid, chin wee and ruixin that afternoon. talked cock, played arcade and ate dinner. well, i wanna thank everyone who bought presents for me and wished me on that day, i appreciate it alot.

as for today, met up with wahid, chin wee and ruixin for some job hunt. didn't go quite successful also but was quite enjoyable lah. feel so carefree to be able to just hang around. after that, went to sign up for driving basic theory test with jm, ky and jj. then its all the way to downtown. justin joined in. ok. our purpose is to play pool and world combat, but i was summoned home because my dad need my help for his course work.

today, we tried out a very new stuff. its pretty fun and exciting. we played dai di on the bus from bedok to ubi and from ubi to pasir ris. nice one lah. this can only be done on an empty upper deck of a double decker bus. gambling addicts. lol.

thats enough for the updates. as for now, some of my thoughts. i feel that since i am 18 years old now, my thinking and actions should be more matured and i do feel a little bit change in my thinking now.

i'm starting to think further now that i can drive openly and stuff. starting to huan loh about my own, family's and brothers' future. starting to think about my role as the eldest son/grandson in the family and his responsibility. something like, what can be done, what can't be done and when is the right time to do what. sounds chim? well, i do think alot.

the first problem i took very personally and importantly now is something with regards to my sis. i don't really know how she faired but i did heard from my mum that she didn't do very well for her a's. ok. first up, i can come up with reasons why she did not do well. its a neutral view. first, she's been at home for like one whole year other than working for citibank. i mean, its hard for someone to remember stuff and get into the momentum to study after one whole year of break and isolation from books, so its natural that she didn't do well. but then again, did she put in alot of effort while studying? that's something she'll need to ask herself.

like i said before. my sis is damn talented. she has the brain. a brain way faster than mine. its just a matter of whether you can bring out the potential or not. honestly, i've always look up to my sis because of her academic grades. her grades are something i can nv catch up with. so in a way, its good for her and in a way, its bad for her too. cause i think if she didn't score that well, the impact will be way higher for her.

as for this a's. take it as a failure, as a turning point bah. a chance to learn something from it. things in life can nv be so smooth. only when there are obstacles then u know what is true happiness and sense of fulfilment.

as for her current situation, i think i can sort of understand how she feels lah. i was somewhat in this shoe before when i was thinking of quitting jc and going to poly. lazy to elaborate on it. but one thing is for sure, i'm 100% not an ingrate. i still remember that when i was in need of help during that period of time, my sis did tried her very best to help me cope with it. so i guess now its my own turn to help her back. problem is i don't know how to help. when i know she intends to study at acca, i checked out the website for the numbers upon my mother's request. i only can do these small little things now. but if my sis ever ask anything from me which i can do, i'm willing to do anything for her thats within my power.

one thing is for sure, i can help her build up a good accounting base as accounting is somehow my forte.

another improvement i wanna make is being able to help out my family more. so it means, being less lazy and managing my time better. time to put what i learnt in pom to some use.

ok. results gonna come out on the 13th, so good luck everyone man.

as for now, my birthday wishes/ resolutions
