FUEL + KOINONIA outing :) ....what a lenthy post!
bSATURDAY: the FUEL + KOINONIA outing was awesomeeee :) First and for most, I'd like to say that God really was present and he created a miracle(every one there agrees with me)! The weather forecast for Saturday was somethin' like, SHOWERS WITH THUNDER IN THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON? yerr, it drizzled for a bit but when we wanted to leave for Bontanical Gardens, but after around 15-25mins, it stopped! & lo and behold, the sun was out and the gloomy clouds were all gone! AMEN TO THAT! Anyways at around 9.30pm, we bought our breakfasts(i got kaya toasts) before leaving for Botanical Gardens. After which, all of us took(there were 24 people present) bus numbers 162(i think) and 156 to NUS. Once we reached NUS, we 'entusiastically'walked to our destination! Upon arrival, we found a nearby shade and settled down. We had a very short 'acoustic praise & worship' session before giving thanks to God reflecting on how close we are to him and stuff. After that, we were supposed to break-up into our pairs and decide on a phrase which shows God's lovce for us all. Once we were done with that and sharing with everyone, it was time for lunch! We were provided Fried Rice with chicken wings :) yummyyy... After lunch, it was time for games! I can't remember the game we played but it was suppperrr fun! At around 3pm, I and joel, claire, natalie, augustine, penelope, pauline, kevin and brother took a cab back to church coz we were supposed to promote FREEd to our fellow juniors. It felt wierd during promotion and stuff, coz the kids weren't as enthu as us, the promoters. HAHA. but hack lahaha, at least the response was good! A total of about 15 - 20 youths signed up! :D yay! & after all the promotion, we rested in the youth room for a while... oh, we played TABOO there too! IT WAS SUPERBLY FUN TOOOOO! omg, i'm freakin' gonna get a set of Taboo cards for my self too lahaha. Once we finished playing games and resting, some of them left and Aug & I went to prata house for dinnner... I ordered a mushroom+cheese+onion and onion prata, with a milo dinosaur, which costed me $7. I think its quite reasonable? After dinner, i chiong-ed back coz I spent almost 12 hours out. Reached home at 7.30pm :]
SUNDAY: had a new tuition teacher for POA... but sadly, i'm weren't comfortable with him. he's explanations and stuff was okay, but the thing was that he's gay. Its not that I hate or am against gays or whatsoever, I'm just not comfortable with one coz I've never been alone with one before. Anyways, at around 1pm, there was P&W practice for FREEd in church. it was successful, but I just couldn't reach some pitches as they were too high.. I guess I gotta work harder on em'. P&W practice ended around 4.45pm. Augustine and I then walked to Meng's Kitchen for bah chor mee. It was an early dinner man... HAHA.
MONDAY:TEACHER'S DAY CELEBRATION IN SCHOOL! the performances and stuff was good... Though I think those guys and gals who did the Hoedown Throwdown could have done better. The skit put up by some teachers was DAMN FUNNY! well done teachers :) After the celebrations, we had to go back to our classes to get our reports cards. (I did terribly bad this term, and I did not set high expectations for myself at all, the truth is that I REALLY DID BAD. & seriously, I shouldn't have failed art! I honestly blame it on my terribly poor time management...) After that, Melvin, Jonathan and I ran to GV BISHAN to watch The Proposal, and when I say ran, i really mean ran.. We literally sweated like buckets when we reached there. Anyways, The Proposal was damn good and funny! Probably one of the best shows I've watched this year. The nude part was especially funny too! HAHA. thankfully, tan ah gao didn't come, if not my mood would have been ruined... Later at around 8pm, I'm gonna have a new bio/chem tuition teacher, who's supposed one of the co-authors for my Bio/Chem textbook. i'm hoping that she's not a lesbian, old lady or whatsoever. ideally, i'm wish she's a young, smart and 'straight' lady. HAHAHAHA
Alrighty, i've gotta go grab my dinner now! Peace&Love, Jeremy =)
p.s.: Thanks to all FUEL-ers and Koinonians especialy Audrey, Eunice and Joel for making the outing possible! :)) && I'll post the music videos by the end of the week, promise :D
yerrr, its the last week of august! which also seems like the last week of school to me, coz next week its practically like a holiday for most sec 3s. Monday-Teacher's Day Celebration, Tuesday- Teacher's Day holiday, Wed to Fri- KOTA TINGGI CAMP! :)
Anyways, i just came back from an awesome evening with my family! Had dinner at Singapore American Club! I ate the usuals; salads, pizzas, breads, salmons, cakes etc. After a heavy dinner, we went to GV Grand to watch 'Where Got Ghost?', which was a so-so film. I didn't get the lingo and stuff, coz probably I speak Hainanese and just know a tad bit of Hokkien. But on a whole, I prefered the first story that they featured(3 stories were shown). The last story was suppperrr boring, but a tad bit funny :D check out the reviews and stuff: http://www.gv.com.sg/moviedetails/gv_moviedetails_2723.jsp
& today, Mr Sean Tay, probably one of my favourite english teachers, has left for his farther studies in Ireland. I kinda read his blog and Facebook stuff, that's why I know all these 'secret' info. Heard he's coming back on Monday for teacher's day! which means I gotta get him his teacher's day card too... HAHAHA! when he's gone, i'll probably 'dedicate' a small post to him, for being such a GOOD english teacher!
Alrighty, I gotta go sleep now coz tomorrow there's FUEL+KOINONIA outing at Botanical Gardens for 8.30am to 3pm! I'm pretty sure there's gonna be LOTS of fun! ohoh! on sunday or somethin', expect two music videos and album reviews! woohoo~ Peace&Love, Jeremy =)
gerard bong just called and guess what he said to me? " I Love You." yerrr, that's what he said. & no, he's not gay. he was dared by his friend, who i think knows me too. LOL. wth -.-
Anyways, Here's what I did over the past few days...
TUESDAY: Bought the Bandslam soundtrack and watched UP! with corrina, shirlene, janet and le en. was suppose to watch it with melvin and bryan but somehow, I 'decided' to watch with the gals(i felt uneasy coz I was the only guy). The movie was AWESOMEEEEEE! It was very touching man, how the old man changed coz of RUSSELL! & i tell y'all, russell is damn cute man. His cheeks are damn chubby and very 'pinchable'. LOL. y'all should catch the movie soooooon :)
WEDNESDAY: corrina and I accompanied sally before she went for tuition :) After corrina left to meet her parents, sally and I went to Donut Factory at Novena Square. She INSISTED that I try the spicy cheese donut. I was wonderin', how can 'spicy' cheese be melted on top of a donut? LOL. And after lots of persuation from her, I finally tried it(she ordered one too). It was not fantastic but good! HAHA. After eatin' and chilling out, she left for tuition at around 4pm? yeah.
TODAY: Left school at 2.15pm coz it rained VERY heavily and flooded almost the whole of inno(the rooftop garden) and our school's entrance slash carpark. Went with Jieying, Roger, Reuben and one sec girl(who's name I can't remember) to Novena Square to check some Billabong stuff and have our lunch. After galavanting for close to an hour, we finally decided to eat at Ajisen Ramen! the total bill was almost $60. LOL.
OH oh, I've got back all my exam scripts all ready. & all i can say is that the results are damn lousy and dissapointing but I deserve it coz I didn't study hard enough. sighs..
ONE MORE THING, mr lau just told me to work with Roger to do photography for O-Levels' Art. & I have to learn photoshop very well? yeap :) that means I've gotta get myself an absolutely GOOD camera!
Alrighty, I've got a meeting with my FUEL for FREEd(an event for all youths) at 8pm. pretty excited about it :)heehee
-MV of The Week: When Love Takes Over by David Guetta feat. Kelly Rowland-
the Chorus: "When love takes over yeaaah, You know you can’t deny, When love takes over yeaaah, Cause something’s here tonight..."
My thoughts slash options: this song by French DJ, David Guetta, is an absolutely good track to dance along. what's more is that he's got American R&B singer, Kelly Rowland, to be on the vocals! that makes this a GREAT song to dance AND sing along too :)
The Music Video: I feel that the plot for this music video is rather stupid. BUT check out the effects and waves in the mv, its what makes the mv so unique. [fyi, the effects part(which is the best parts of the mv) is from 1:35 to 2:35]
Quote of the day: (thanks to Emily Teng) "Money can't buy you happiness. It's the people who you surround yourself with that do. Choose them wisely. You don't want to end up alone...."
PEACE! & sorry for posting this week's music video late! :/
Yerrrr, that's right! I'm done with my final paper, ART! & i swear, i totally screwed up the paper. I'd be happy if I passed...
Anyways, I'm either gonna watch UP! or meet FUEL friends for discussion tomorrow! :D Here's a video from Jamon Lyons aka MetalIsMyMiddleName. He does videos on how to do screamo stuff on Youtube.. Here's one of his non-screamo videos(its farkin' funny!):
Never did I imagine a guy who does screamo and like metal could actually be a really funny person!
tomorrow, I'm also gonna post the MV of The Week! :) Peace&Love, Jeremy Chua :D
i'm listenin' to 1015 The Hawk right now, HAHA! Anyways, today was an good day :) Went for mass at St Ignatius at 12nn, followed by lunch at The American Club, Singapore. The food there was good, as usual. I had salads, pastries, breads, soups, pizzas, hams, smoked salmons, tarts, cakes and tons more of stuff! I was seriously very VERY full that I had 'no room' for fruits :(
Tomorrow, there's ART EXAMMM(my final paper)! We're gonna have to personify, distort, fragmental, personify and stretch/skew an object given...
Therefore, I'm gonna start practising my drawing skills now :D Peace&Love, Jeremy =)
I really should stop gettin' jealous and angry with you. If not, I seriously think our friendship will be badly affected... But why does it have to be you? why are you the one that comes in her mind first?
yerrr, that's right! exams are over :D though I have to say on a whole, I won't do very well coz of time management and stuff :( oh, not forgetting pressure from tons of people. I can say the worst paper and a sure F9 is POA and maybe chem. The easiest, hmm... bio or chinese? idk.
Anyways,I FINALLY RECEIVED KELLIE PICKLER'S SELF-TITLED ALBUM! It was delivered to me on tuesday :) I'll probably review it sometime this month.
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY CLAIRE GOH!!! Yesterday was very very fun!After my Bio & POA paper, I, Reuben, Roger and Jieying went to Orchard :D First stop was Wheelock Place! We went to check out Borders, Marks & Spencer, and some Apple stuff. After that, we walked over to Ngee Ann City for lunch at SEOUL GARDER :) it was my first time going there... The buffet was great! $54++ all in all. After lunch, we went to Kinokuniya. I went to check some magazine stuff for shirlene and reuben had to buy some eraser thing. LOL. Once we were done, we 'crossed over' to Wisma Atria coz reuben wanted to check out Flesh Imp. After which, we walked to Ion Orchard to collect 2 of my BK STUDIO tees(which is awesome and damn nice coz I designed it!) and Zara. We finally left at 5pm! 5 hours out at orchard :) In the evening, there was FUEL! we watched the Facing The Giants, which replaced the normal bible verse sharing. Just when the movie started showing, Claire and Gerard left. I then later found out that Claire was emo and gerard was comforting her. damn sad luh, coz it was her birthday yesterday. sighs.. But they came back halfway when the movie was showing :) & before Claire left(coz her mother was waiting for her downstairs), I decided to give her a small surprise! Got her a small piece of chocolate cake from Han's. Everyone sang a birthday songgg for her! I seriously hope that cheered her up. After FUEL, which ended at almost 11pm, a whole bunch of us( about 10 people ) headed to Five Star Hainanese Chicken Rice for supper. we talked, discussed and joked about anything under the sun. HAHA. oh, the food there wasn't that good. it didn't live up to it's name, 'FIVE STAR Hainanese Chicken Rice'. I came back home at 12mn :)
Today I woke up at 5.50am to meet Augustine & Jonathan(from FUEL) for mass coz it's the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary(a day of obligation for all catholics). So when we were at church and settled down, we saw Claire and she came and sat with us :) Was pretty happy that she wasn't emo like last night :D in fact, the hyper Claire was back! After mass, we met Gerard and Nathan for breakfast at Ya Kun. But then before we started ordering our breakfast, she turned emo again... I wanted to help comfort her but looks like only gerard is and was capable of doing that : (hope she's okay now...) Anyways, long story short, we ate our breakfast and Claire only had milo for breakfast. After breakfast, I came back home for a while and then left for chinese tuition.
Okily dokly, I gotta go take a nap now... Gonna watch UP! this tuesday! Peace&Love, Jeremy :)
Holy Spirit Church's youth ministry, FUEL( Forever United in thE Lord) proudly presents... FREEd, an event that hopes to bring ALL YOUTHS together for a night of fellowship, praise & worship and an inspirational movie screening. It'll also be a good time to reflect on whether we really are ready to lay ourselves down for our Heavenly Father... So come along with all your friends and encounter God, together :)
Music Video of the week ~ 3/7 - 7/8 (IX) ::: TRIPLE DOSE[national day special]!
~ Music Videos of the week: Here We Go Again by Demi Lovato, F*ck You by Lily Allen and What Do You See by Electrico(national day special)~ HAPPY NATIONAL DAY! Due to a tad bit of time constrain, I won't be provide y'all with information about the songs and music videos, but just my thoughts slash opinions :)
Here We Go Again by Demi Lovato: Taken of her latest album of the same title, this is an absolutely good song to rock out to :) If you're into 311, Nickleback or Daughtry, you might like this song too. Its good that Ms Lovato has moved to more pop rock songs, rather than teen pop ones. The music video is pretty easy to understand, so I won't explain it. The key points are in the begining and ending of the video! p.s.: emily teng from 987fm lovessss this song!
F*ck You by Lily Allen: this song is seriously funny. the tune is sureeeee to make you laugh(or think its silly)! HAHAHA. The music video show Allen stretching and distorting things and people! :)
What Do You See by Electrico: I have to say, this year's national day theme song has a more edgy, catchy and rock pop sensation added to it! & Just like any other national day theme song, the unity among Singaporeans will always be seen :) you can download this song for free at http://www.ndp.org.sg .WAY TO GO ELECTRICO! Quote of the day: (thanks to Emily Teng) "If you never failed, you never lived" PEACE!
okayokay. So, the national day celebration in school was damn lame? yeah, IT WAS. I wore my Ellen LAUGH.DANCE.LOVE red shirt :) At 8am, all the 5 levels in school assembled in the hall for the first time after the June hols! Firstly, we recited the pledge together. Secondly, our new VP read a longgg speech from MOE on National Day. Thirdly, there was a talk from 'someone related to Mr Low, our Principal, about living overseas and the kids in China? yeah. After the longggg talk, mr koh and mr ho played a lame game with us; the level that could say 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!!! YEAH!' the LOUDEST would get to go home first. wth? LOL. After the 'celebration', I had to had straight to class for a bio test. Bio test was very okay. I'm hoping for a B4 and above :) In the evening, I had FUEL! it was fun man! First, we met at church and once everyone arrived, all 15 of us walked to Retro Cafe, just opposite church. It was quite good :) After dinner, all of us walked back to church for discussions regarding the 'Youth Night'! again, I won't leak anything out. as usual, follow me here & on twitter if y'all wanna be the first to know exclusive news regarding the 'Youth Night'! After FUEL, I, Jon, Natalie, Augustine and Joel went to Icekimo for what else but Ice-Cream! I got a blueberry cheesecake ice cream on crispy waffle! Around 10.50pm, the Icekimo people told us they're closing. Therefore, we went out and sat in a circle on the floor. Joel discussed with us on some 'spiritual prayer' thing. It was a tad bit scary coz a holy or evil spirit could possess you if you ain't careful enough.
Today was a boring day man.. Had math tuition in the morning from 8am to 12.15pm! Then in the evening, had chemistry tuition. chapter 7(writing equations) for chemistry is damn tough! sighs, i guess I'll have to study harder! Believe it or not, I have not touched my SS, Geog, POA and Bio yet! craps! oh! btw, that idiotic Heng J__g J__ wants to COMPETE with me in common test 2 results. wtf. I swear, if he does that, I am NOT gonna talk to him anymore.
Alrighty, i gotta go now. Have a great Sunday yeah! Peace&Love, Jeremy =)
sighs, Common Test twooooo has started :( that means a whole week of stress,stress and MORE STRESS! oh, and I think I'll also be a nerd for one whole week! is that a good or bad thing?
Okay, enough crapping! Today I had my first two papers; English and Chinese. Chinese was pretty okay. It was a composition and I chose Q2, which was ' I finally plucked out some courage to say Thank You'. My story somewhat resembles the previous 11pm show on Channel 8( 蓝色仙人掌- Rhapsody In Blue ). Some people said I'll just pass, but there are also some who said that I'll get pretty high marks. Well, I'm hoping to get a C5 and above :) English was pretty okay tooooo. It was Comprehension+Summary writting. I'm really really REALLY hoping to get at least a B3... OH OH, talkin' about English, mr Sean Tay said he saw my blog man.. HAHA. I find it really wierd, coz I really don't know how he found it. He said he has his 'resources'. Mr Sean Tay = a very resourceful teacher? LOL.
Here's a question to ponder on: Why do most Asians find it hard to say ' I Love You' to their friends, parents or relatives? I've been watching quite a few American TV shows since I was young, and have always noticed that kids, teens, young adults and even adults often say ' Love You ' to their friends/family members on the phone or before they leave the house. & they don't find it hard to do so at all. I for one can say it but still, I feel awkward to say it sometimes.. Is it coz we Asians find a deeper meaning in those three words or is it just plain awkwardness?
there's FUEL movie night discussion tomorrow!:) Peace&Love,
- MV of The week: Good Girls Go Bad by Cobra Starship feat. Leighton Meester -
About the song: it basically is about a guy who makes literally changes a good daddy's girl into a bad one. HAHA. I don't really understand the song that well but hey, the tune is gooooood.
The Music Video: 'Gossips Girls' star Leighton Meester runs an underground club-like place, complete with shelves of booze, gambling tables and a dance floor. The band is in charge of the above-ground deli that acts as a front operation to 'secret' club below. To gain access to the illegal club, patrons must order the correct sandwich and proceed down a staircase. Meester and Victoria Asher(the band's keytarist), exchange texts messages while in the club concerning a package hidden in the DJ's booth. Meester retrieves the package and shortly after, the club is raided by police. At the end of the video, it is revealed that Asher and Meester were undercover cops involved in a sting operation.
My thoughts slash opinions: the video is a tad bit confusing but watch it around two or three times and you'll get the idea. But nevertheless, the song is pretty nice yeah(though not as meanigful ans sentimental as Kellie Pickler's I Wonder, HAHA.)!
Quote of the day: (thanks to Emily Teng) "When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us."
the other half of my saturday was okay.. My uncle, dad and I went to the newly renovated St Bernadette Church! It was way better than the previous church man! Firstly, there was air-con. Secondly, the place was bigger(there's a second storey). & Thirdly, the sits(furniture) were all changed! :D After mass, we went for dinner at Fishermen's Warf(directly opposite Central). The fish 'n' chips was damn fresh and good! HAHA. After dinner, we went back to my uncle's appartment to slack for a bit. :)
SUNDAY[FUEL canteen(breakfast) service]: Woke up at 6.50am! Reached church at 7.07am :) we started off with an opening prayer and then arranging of tables and food. there was a huge variety of food; prawn mee soup(which was the best!), baked rice, nuggets, japanese chicken, beehoon, nasi lemak, toast, eclair and many MANY more! It was tiring and needed a bit of hardwork but nevertheless, it was absolutely fun! There was definitely teamwork present man:) & at the end of the day, we managed to raise $1019+! THANKS TO ALL FUEL-lers(especially Becky, Cheryl & ALL MENTORS) FOR MAKIN' IT A SUCCESS! After this ended, Jon, Augustine, Andre and I went over to Thomson Plaza for lunch at SUBWAY! :) Andre's sandwhich costed $16, coz he added extra meat and stuff. HAHA. I ordered a Subway Club :D
TODAY: a very stressful and boring day man, school ended at 2.30pm. Coincidentally, I met Augustine in the train. We chatted for a bit before I alighted at Novena. Anyways,I got back my english and chinese test papers back. I was lucky to be one of the 10 people in class to pass. & for chinese, I failed VERY VERY badly. kinda regret not allocating my time well. Maths was a disaster man, I could not understand a thing the teacher was teaching. oh and Bio i failed too? idk, i just guess so. I've decided to seriously put in effort and not slack anymore. I don't care if its just one week more to the Common Test or I don't have enough time, I just wanna try my best for this week and 'gobble'/'swallow' all the stuff I need to know. & when its time for me to 'vomit' em' all out, I WILL!
Just came back from a FUEL- MIP meeting at church.We were discussing what stuff for a closing celebration slash party slash event that was going to take place after the L9's MIP(12th September)... & we decided on a MOVIE NIGHT! Not to reveal too much but hey, its gonna be real fun! keep it locked here for more info. btw, I know y'all are pretty blur right now but fret not, when the day comes near, I'll provide clearer and more detailed info :)
Yesterday was a pretty fun day. IC Registration in the morning :) Gonna collect our IC in one month! HAHA. After registration(which took up THREE periods), we were told there was an extention in recess time, and that meant there was NO Geography test! LOL. The test would be postponed till after our exams :) In the evening, there was FUEL! :D i'm always lookin' forward to that i tell ya... Anyways, yesterday's topic was 'Hungry' and was shared by Gerald and Damien. Gospel reading was John 6:24-35. we had to discuss somethin' like was God/Jesus ever in the list of thing our favourite things or things we really wanted. After that, I, Jon, Andre, Nat and Augustine went to Icecube aka Ice3 for supper. We had 8 really mini scoops of Ice-Cream and a Seafood platter. it was damn nice but a bit ex : Augustine was damn nice to treat us close to $20, which meant the rest of us only needed to pay $2.50. LOL.
alrighty, I gotta go get ready for Mass at the newly opened St Bernadette Church later. tomorrow gonna wake up real early for FUEL Canteen service(we're gonna serve the parishioners in church breakfast)! hopefully I'll have time to go online yeah.
