abt myself
Me? A pretty talkative person, haha!! I love playing computer games, particularly because I love cars. I am not a very good subject opener when I'm in conversation, so basically when you talk to me, there'll be some moment in silence, and a few seconds later, I'd talk about absolutely nothing in common that we just spooke, haha!! That's why I'm a boring person, if I get to describe one of my attributes. My English ain't that great either, so that's probably one of the main reason... =P
[To all my indo peeps (others can read as well.. Hope u guys can understand too, heh!)

best quote from 'friends'
OK. Like seriously, I can't get enough of this show. Was just watching an episode where Monica & Phoebe found out that Rachel was pregnant, and Phoebe had to pretend around Joey that she was pregnant to protect Rachel's secret from leaking:
*Phoebe enters the apartment and sat down*
Joey: Phoebe, I know it's a tough world out there. I really think you are a special person. I've always felt that you and I have a... a special bond. So, Phoebe Buffay... would you marry me? *Joey presented Phoebe a wedding ring*
*crowd gasped*
Monica: Oh my God. Joey!!
Phoebe: Oh yeah! I'll marry you!!
*crowd applaused*
Monica: What?!?! You can't marry him??
Joey: Why can't she marry me?
Phoebe: Yes I can, and I will! *kisses Joey*
Monica: Because she is not pregnant. It's Rachel; she's the one who's pregnant. OK?
Joey: Oh my God... *shocked*
Phoebe: HEY!!! *shouts in annoyance*
Monica: Phoebe, I think he'd notice when you didn't have a baby in 9 months?
THIS IS THE BEST PART....
Phoebe: It's Joey!
I was laughing so hard during that part, and I kept rewinding that part for about a good 4 or 5 times more. Gosh, I think if anyone was at home with me now they'd be shocked.. LOL!!
Friends ROCKS!!!! =D

ASS-ignment
Assignment: Something assigned, as a particular task or duty
They should have added "causing mental exhaustion if concentrated for too long".
PAIN IN THE ASS CAN! >_<
For 2 consecutive days for at least 4 hours straight my groupmates and I have been spending countless hours sacrificing our butts off to get it done as much. And guess what. It's not even DONE.. Grrrr! I HATE ASSIGNMENTS!!
Mood: Restless..

Zoo, clubbing, JJ Lin's concert - Wrapping June Up! :)
A thousand apologies for haven't been updating my blog this month. It's been one heck of a muddled week full of tutorials and the never-ending assignments that are sucking the life outta me. At times I'd like to think that if this blog were a person, I'd probably have to constantly apologise to it 'cuz I've neglected it sooo much to the point that I even forget that I had a blog in the first place. Hahahahaha!! =p
Anyways, I don't wish to make this entry long, so I won't exactly be writing in full details. So, here we go:
1st week of June:
OK. So on Monday I had an outing with only the guys (rare occasion, since when we're out we'd have girls coming along as well). I went to the zoo with Isaac, KC, Maki and Marcus. It really brought back good memories. I still remembered visiting the zoo about 9 years back with my family when I was still in primary school. I must say quite a lot has changed. All of us ended up paying $5 extra for the tram ride, which we found to be quite a waste after we got out of the zoo, since most of the time we were busy walking trying to snap pictures of the animals there. Not gonna elaborate what went on between us, but boy was it a memorable outing... HONESTLY; the pictures speak for themselves. LOL! =D
On Thursday, KC and I went to the Science Centre, just for the sake of going. LOL! Honestly, that was one outing I found to be worth the money, 'cuz I haven't been there before in all my years I've spent in SG. Saw plenty of interesting stuff over there. I'm sure KC had a memorable time there too! Brought out the child in us. We met up with John for dinner after, and went home. =)
Then on Friday, I went to KC's place to chill after school with Isaac until evening time. Met up with John up during dinner, and after we're done with it, we were off to................ CLUBBING!! Yes, it was my first visit to a club. Since this was my first time clubbing, I let the guys decide on which club to go. They debated a little, but in the end they decided to go Dbl O. And so we did. Oh YA! We got a free entrance too! All thanks to KC for informing us about it! Club entries are not cheap. So we got there at about 2130. Unfortunately, club events doesn't happen until really late at night. So since we already got a free entrance, we decided to go out for a little guy chat at a hawker centre nearby before going back in again at 11PM. During the time spent at the hawker I was busy looking at the road for nice cars... I was truly amazed. We saw a Ferrari F430 drove by us, leaving us with a sweet sound coming from the exhausts, and also plenty of Porsches, including the Carrera S. All the rich asses. =p
So anyways, we got back in the club, and there were more people now. We had a hard time trying to find a spot to sit while waiting for the dance competition begun as all the seats were all reserved. So we just had to stand up for an agonising 2 hours just to watch some dancers strut their stuff. I wasn't exactly that impressed 'cuz I've seen better dancers than them. So after all the dance and all, the dancefloor was finally opened to the clubbers. So all 4 of us danced the night off. I had a blast! I got home only at 4 in the morning! I got up at 3.30 in the afternoon on that day. I was too exhausted. I've never partied that hard before. LOL!!
2nd week of June:
Nothing much happened this week. Only had a day of lecture on Wednesday and that was it. Had the rest of the days all to myself at home. Good time to rest. =)
Then there was Father's Day. Once again, couldn't celebrate the occasion, so I just text my Dad and greeted him. =)
3rd week of June:
Marcus, John and I went for a lunch date with Mrs on Friday, along with Ms Sarah. Our last outing with Mrs Jamie was about a year ago, so it was a good time to catch up with one another on our happenings. We had a great lunch at a Japansese foodcourt at Raffles City. Thanks again, Mrs Jamie! =)
On the same week, our clique went to Westside Anglican Church to watch JJ Lin perform. Was my first time seeing him physically. I've only seen him on TV ads most of the time. I was surprised with his singing. He turns out to be a great singer after all! And he's a local!! Haha! Anyways, he composed quite a few song that he sang on Saturday, and they're beautiful. Thanks for the tix, KC! =)
On Sunday, the rest of the clique went to celebrate Maki's belated birthday. Sorry i couldn't be there guys!! Hope you guys had fun!!
4th week of June:
Had a game of badminton yesterday evening with the two couples and myself. Though the games went faster than usual due to time constraint, we managed to have fun anyways. Thanks for coming along guys! =)
Well, that wraps up my June entry. Turned out to be a long post anyway. Hahaha! I will try my very best to keep this blog as updated as possible, whenever I can. =)
Ciao peeps!
Dre, signing out.

wind & stone..
Received an e-mail from my brother today. Quite an interesting one, and meaningful too:
TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKING
THROUGH THE DESERT.
DURING SOME POINT OF THE
JOURNEY, THEY HAD AN
ARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIEND
SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE
IN THE FACE.
THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED
WAS HURT, BUT WITHOUT
SAYING ANYTHING,
WROTE IN THE SAND:
'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.'
THEY KEPT ON WALKING,
UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,
WHERE THEY DECIDED
TO TAKE A BATH
THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN
SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE
MIRE ! AND STARTED DROWNING,
BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.
AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM
THE NEAR DROWNING,
HE WROTE ON A STONE:
'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SAVED MY LIFE '.
THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED
AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND
ASKED HIM, 'AFTER I HURT YOU,
YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,
YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?'
THE FRIEND REPLIED
'WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US
WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN
IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OF
FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY.
BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES
SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,
WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE
WHERE NO WIND
CAN EVER ERASE IT.'
LEARN TO WRITE
YOUR HURTS IN
THE SAND AND TO
CARVE YOUR
BENEFITS IN STONE.
THEY SAY IT TAKES A
MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL
PERSON, AN HOUR TO
APPRECIATE THEM, A DAY
TO LOVE THEM, BUT THEN
AN ENTIRE LIFE
TO FORGET THEM.
TAKE THE TIME TO LIVE!
DO NOT VALUE THE THINGS
YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE, BUT VALUE
WHO YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE !
