Sickness and Tofu.

Well. I guess I have not been ill for quite a while. And now I'm down with a super flu virus. Tried forcing myself to go to school today. Because I wanted to personally tell my Sec 3's about their next assignment. However within the first few periods I was so weak I really could not talk like I normally do. So I left school to see a doctor as soon as i was done with my sec 3 periods. You know. With CNY and all that shit happening next week. It's almost as good as no proper lessons. So I have to push it all within this week and next monday. But now that I'm down with a flu. Great......
On the bright side of things. Look what I got.


This thing is massive.

Shopping again. What else can we do?

I love the large Yoshi and Mushroom! So nice! Plus many other smaller ones! Heh!
And of cause. More kicks to the stable. Vans sk8 hi's!


Mel the Student!

Well.... Now that I've finally infiltrated my way back into secondary school. It's time I take a look back at how I was a clown myself when I was going through that phase in my life. And I can say I do see a reflection of myself in some of the kids I'm teaching now. Was packing up my place for CNY. And found these old photo's. Lousy quality because I re-took them with my d-cam. (digital cameras were almost non-existant back then) Check out my yoyo-ing pic! Gosh it's so scary I don't really look any different from so many years ago! In fact I think I still look exactly the same! Check my post before this on me playing yoyo in my Botanic Garden Photography trip! Uncanny! These pics are almost 10 years old!

See if you can spot me. There I am right behind my teacher. Mr Toh. Plotting my future infiltration... Hehe.

Fooling around in the Art room. (still doing that now! Haha) Damn I just realize how ugly I actually am....

Botanic Gardens Phototrip.

Did a little something different for my weekend. Hope the pics are good enough!

17th January. Dream Theater @ Fort Canning Park

This was what went down that night. I did not bring my camera in. Pictures taken off the SOFT sg forums. Pics belong to the guy with the watermarked name. These pics are perfect. The photographer is good. Captured the feeling of that night. Powerful and cold (due to the heavy downpour)

Maybe I should stop.

I've been feeling really lame and down this past week. Only thing I can look forward to is Dream Theater tonite at fort canning. Guess I won't be posting for awhile. I really don't have anything I can blog about. I have alot. But definitely not for the world to know. So I guess I will stop. For how long I don't know. Thank you people.

If tomorrow is gone. I would feel more comfort.

Ok. That title was ripped off Gardenian's song title. I heard that song on my shuffle on the way home. And it's exactly how I feel.
I have not feel so f***ed in a long time. I'm not sure if it's one of my "PMS's" Shawne likes to affectionally tag to me when I have my mood swings. But this is not just a mood swing. It's actually heavy on my heart and mind.

I don't know what I'm doing. I'm busy in school. I've been riding a whole lot. And just generally being busy. I have loads more time to myself. Much more than working in an advertising firm. Although school's workload is also heavy. But not as slave driven as my previous job.

One minute I can ride my bike feeling at peace. Next minute I can be cursing the arrogant driver cutting into my lane. With explicit images conjured in my head of bashing his skull in. With my usual dose of "brains" as people who know me well would attest.

One day I can have lovely company and actually feel nice. The next day I can be wondering what is going to happen when I face my classes. Especially the ones who refuse to cooperate. Once again. I wish I could do something to thier "Brains". Literally change the way they think. (although a little blood and gore in the process would make things prettier)

I have let it eat into me a little. Much more than a little actually. And now I'm feeling it. The feeling of helplessness in the situation which I would like to actually have a say is now chewing into my brains. I shoudn't have. It seemed like something I don't come across all the time. It's good. The last was which a couple of years back. But should have known better than to let it generate itself into something I'm trying hard to control now.

I don't want to go to school. I want to actually. But I don't want to see people whom I want but don't want as well because it's messing up my head, or brains......

School's begun. Too busy!

School's officially back. Which only means the mad administrative rush of the first semester! I'm going nuts. And worse of all. I miss my kids so much! Was expecting to see many of them. But with so many class transfers and additional different classes I'll be taking I will not be able to see some of them almost at all! Gosh!
