england U21

Bastard sia Stuart Pierce. Bastard sia England under 21. Hahahaha. Well you're wondering why I'm saying this. It's simple.

timecheck - 4:06
My late-night-holiday curse kicks in and I happen to chance upon England against Azerbaijan (U21)
its 75minutes into the match and England are leading 6-0. And what did they do?

they send in a goalkeeper...

...to play as a striker.



Bastard sia they all. HAHAHAHA. Like that isn't in-your-face enough to Azerbaijan.

i dunno why im blogging this
oh yah and on the 81st minute they sub the keeper for another keeper so all the keepers got to play tonight.

She's so intrigued.


There's a print exhibition going on at 8Q. "This is not a print!" features works by Lichtenstein, Hockney, Rauschenberg and many more. A must see for all my fellow future printmakers. Didn't take any photos of the artworks cause you have to see them for yourself.

my apology

This is my apology to you.

Sorry, that I did not inform you that I was going to stay over at my friend's place that night. It was only ONE night.

You see after assessment ended all of us (NAFA people) just wanted to have fun and have a barbecue. Each and every one of us deserved this barbecue because each and every one of us put in so much effort in our projects and daily assignments (most of us anyway). And it baffles me, that I don't get recognition for all the things I've worked so hard for.

What have I done tell me, to have made you treat me transparent? What? Did I almost go to jail? Do I speak loudly and harshly to any of us at home? Do I play soccer everyday and not care about my work?

And for just this once that I did commit wrong. This once I just forgot.

I made it a year in NAFA and it's been such a good year. I cannot ask for anything more. So I'm quite pleased to say I'm very happy with where I am now. Happy with the friends (old and new) I have. And delighted with the times spent with you. The grades shouldn't be too bad. I think I've redeemed myself from my archi failure. Now I can finally move on.

napping on the train


you need big ass headphones to get into the nafa toilets


You know assessment's getting to you when you can't help but fall asleep on the train. And everyday you are this close to catching that last train. But you don't (thankfully) cause you leave school early.

The only thing done is 2D.

More effort boy. Much more effort is needed. Maybe I should get a whole carton of Redbull like Fish and tawn through the nights.


it's ok if we abstain. just not too long k. i was kidding when i said i could hold it off like forever. that's nonsense =x i love you. and i dont feel unfair at all when i send you back and come home late. cause you're worth it love. whatever effort i put into this and into you im getting it back, sometimes even 2fold. =]

Assessment is in 3 weeks right? (correct me if I'm wrong, I always screw up dates like this)
A lot of things haven't done la as usual. Good thing is, final projects for all the classes have been issued. So time to start thinking of what do paint/draw already.

No time for stress though. Stress doesn't have anything to do with me cause I'll be with Mong's travelling circus!

progress

meow


When you stay up late at night knowing there's going to be school tomorrow you suddenly realise that you're taking time for granted. I'm so sorry I did not immediately fall asleep. I do not possess that kind of ability. Unlike someone I know ;) But here's a dream.

I dreamt that in the future my friends (which set of friends I do not remember but to take a guess I think my NAFA friends and 3MC) gave me a bike. Like one of those kawasakis but bigger. It was very old and salvaged from different bikes. How do I know this? It was blue, green, red and copper brown all at the same time. And then before the dream faded it dawned upon me that I don't have a bike license. How was I supposed to ride it?

So now I'm going to try and fall asleep. And I'm going to dream that this time, I'll get my license. Then I can ride my bike. I know. Good night.

all killer no filler


I realised that I can get quite violent and destructive if I let myself be. When angered or frustrated I tend to think of really bad stuff that can hurt the people around me. Sometimes I just think too much these days. But how can you not? When life's taking a fast turn and most of the time you're trying to keep up. I guess that's how it is then.

I have to remember. If I'm mad, I have to get rid of it in a less destructive way. Less negative angsty thoughts. There's no one there for you to punch and kick and really whack it all out. It's just your mind playing with you.

And people can get hurt. People who are your friends. People who are innocent. And people that you love.

to make it official

Yes. I am going on a school trip to Italy and France this June. Luckily I have J-dawg and part of the 'family' goin along too so that's not gonna be too lonely (with year 2s I don't even know =x)


So I went to catch the Nerves on the opening day of NOISE Singapore and Syaq plays the drums like a possessed animal on drugs. Haha. Quite cool actually. He doesn't really play the technical stuff but he just plays it so real. Something like Chad Smith but with more hair.

I'm still stuck with a lot of school work. I haven't done the essays. I haven't completed anatomy. I haven't finished the vector art thing and I haven't even started on the photomontages (this one i think i'll anyhow do) There's still 2d to do and we don't have enough textures.

But technical drawing and watercolor are done. (shhh, don't tell anybody i freehanded the ellipses)

Man, homework's fucked up. So much to do and so little time. I'm pretty sure everyone's dying for tutorial week. Then again, I'm sure we're all going to slack during tutorial week and NOT FINISH anything lol. I haven't met the guys for a long time now. Oh wait they're all having exams =x maybe after that we can all have a nice round of buffet at Sakae Sushi. Except this time round Samuel (I owe him 10bucks) won't be the same monster he used to be back then. And I need to gain abit of weight too.

My room is too disgusting already. I've got no time to clean it up its always off to here or there to finish up some classwork. And I'm just too hard on myself. But why wouldn't I be when the school system keeps fucking up my record. I did not take that subjects you twats and that's not my GPA. I deserve better. You can go fuck yourselves. Cereal.

Apart from that everything else is fine. To quote from Rina "you and her how?" Me and her has always been good, cept for a few things in between. And it should be that way. It's too unnatural if it's all ups and no downs. Where's the balance to that? And it's even worse if it's all downs lol (i've been there, not a pretty place).

Mellow music is good therapy for my metal-ridden soul. I admit the metal's been getting at me one way or another and I don't like it, no matter how good it feels. I needed the in-between and I think I've found it (keane? no take that! wait..OH snow patrol! don't ridicule me you lol)

I went to mosque today and it felt good.

Happy belated 3rd to my god-daughter Kimi.

I'm glad today there weren't any fireworks, though the conditions for one were clearly there. Tempers were held back I guess and that's good. Forgiveness was spread across from one to the other and whatever that is preventable was prevented.

Water under the bridge is all.

I'm glad we didn't explode. I'm glad it didn't happen. And I'm too glad we talked about it in the end. It felt great to release whatever it was that was inside and the fact that you took it calmly and was so forgiving made it a lot easier on me. I'm still sorry though. It takes a while to get it out of my system =). But here's to us, 3 months of friendship, love, being there for each other and for all the awesomeness. Thank you.

I think today was the most tiring day of the week. Digital Art this morning was mind-boggling and irritating even for me. Imagine, drawing vectors for every part of your darn face. Then we had a quick Left4Dead session. I tell you, Kanako is damn imba.

I actually managed to last for hour before I buang (wanna vomit).

There's a nice evening sky going on right now. My living room, the part near by the window where the plants are, looks like some scene from Caravaggio. And here I am sitting in between the light and dark. My house is noisy, with the television and the constant cries from Kratos, the Sony god of war, on the PS2.

Leslie was talking to me about Magic the other day. Hell no I am never going back but the art is as sweet as ever. It seems that I've lost touch with my inner fantasy goober. Magic art used to be my passion and it has been long since I've drawn anything fantasy. Honestly, how can you not get sick of drawing bottles and fruits everyday.

Damnit ok. Just. Stand. Still.
