tomorrow is my last paper of the year.
and what better way to celebrate, than to go back home, and have a good rest? mm.. and a hot bath.... and the nice cozy bed.....
but now, it really isn't the time to think about that. the last paper i'm having is AMP. which is, well..... like geography, literature, social studies and history, in the form of chemistry.
the same long winded stuff, boring, not happening, and really dry. and i'm down to my last bit of energy. today's thermofluids wiped me clean. oh god... i lost 1/5 of the paper due to careless mistakes.
the bad news is, i just realised i've been memorising mistakes instead of the correct answers.... and all my new year effort gone down to waste....
pitiful? sorrowful? nah.... it's just plain bad luck...

horror in the eyes
today was a tragic day. someone passed away at block 623.
it wasn't a funeral. it was an accident.
4.00 pm in the afternoon. like any other NP student, i was revising feverishly for my papers next week. then came a loud clang and bang..... i figured it was nothing, as such noises was pretty common.
then my mum came back from shopping and said loudly:" someone fell off the building." i ran to the kitchen window and leaned out. the scene was like some C.S.I drama. the cops were there, the body was covered in a police tent, the scene was roped off, residents were peeking out of their homes, and the karaoke people at the void decks were just staring. everyone was just watching.
what i saw troubled me. a slipper, a metal tin, some blood. the feeling of breaking every bone in my body shook my nerves. if you had splintered yourself before, you would know how it feels like. and i watched on. for the next 3 hours, the police collected every piece of evidence, a pair of slippers, the metal tin, the body. from what i heard, the deceased was a middle-aged man. he must have fallen off the building..... if not, it could have been intentional suicide.
while that aside, my study progress has been so-so, not to troubling except for the fact that i'm running out of time. it feels really stressful, and i'm having my seasonal outbreak now. in just 3 days time, it'll all be over, and then, the real thing starts from there.
can you read my mind after all?

when life goes round and round like a clock
look out! here it comes!
if you didn't see it coming your way from behind, it's going to hurt.
when people say life is meaningless, it's true, we were dying the day we were born.
when people say life is meaningful, it's true, i have my own dreams too.
sometimes the latter seems harder to accept. when you're so young, everything ahead of you, is just another option. but as you grow older, the choices are harder to make, the risks are greater, and the less happier you'll be.
valentines day was quiet with the books and pencils. 4 hours in the library wasn't enough. and today was another day of dry lectures. and then i remembered. the singapore airshow 2008. 19th-24th of february. something i wanted to do this year. more details over here----> http://www.singaporeairshow.com.sg/
hopefully, i can afford the time to go this year, because maybe, i won't ever get the chance to ever fly a plane again.

when i'm under constant pressure process
constant pressure process: P.v = m.R.T when you're under so much of it, and can't think straight from it.
it's day one of exams. yes, i'm done with my EM3B, i lost 11 marks, and i should be getting an A for that. whereas, tuesday is big day thermofluids, and wednesday is high time with AMP.
my table is like a over-weeding garden. it's full of dropped hair. god, it's so hairy. and i can't study anymore, it's pretty much due to stress overload. my pimples are coming out again, and the sleepless nights are pretty much common nowadays.
while i was studying with my mates, i got some nice photos in the library. some are really explicit, but some are just plain good. here are some.

like i said, explicit. i have to admit, some of them took me aback when i first saw them, but, the models where pretty okay looking...... and they had nice figures, and they naturally caught my attention. P.S, they're not pornographic images for your information.
anyways, i cancelled all my flying activities, until next saturday. which means, i can fully concentrate on my exams. but, unfortunately, tomorrow, i have my ground school briefings, and i'm going to get a surprise on how far my course is ahead of me.
new year was pretty okay this year, at least i wasn't working, but i had to study. damn, it was so extreme. i'm an uncle on my malaysian side of the family, and all my nephews and neices are like toddlers....unfortunately for me, i had to study and din't go. and, when i wasn't home on saturday, my house was practically in chaos. the kids were all over our new sofa and the new cushions were... totalled.
like any other NP student, i can feel the freedom coming in from next week. and with 2 more papers to go, i can hardly catch my breath, and keep up with the study pace. and after that, its all back to flying.....
see you down the road at the next exit....

when you can't comprehend the words around
i feel so sick..... is it the weather? is it the food? or is it my classmates?
which of the following is the main cause of a bout of bad flu? write a program blah blah blah.....
when i came in for compro test this morning, more than half the class was sick. and yesterday, i went with leon to crown plaza to have "mad jack", when he told me he wasn't feeling to good.
so when you have lunch with an ill friend, be careful so as not to get infected. unfortunately for me.... i woke up with sore throat and hot nostrils, typical signs for me that a time of flooded noses and gagging coughs are about to come in days.
when lunar new year is coming, it just sucks to fall ill. things to do tomorrow.
hand in compro final assignments. either play lan with freddy and jon/or go fuhua for CNY. and finally, the night i have waited for 2 years, to spend time with my family.
so would you do this new year?
P.S.: i think my new blog skin looks pretty gay

when "mistakes", just doesn't make it sound right
it's been a long day.
today started at 7.00am with me rushing out to SYFC for my sortie 4, excercise 6ii. it looked extremely cloudy, with tendancies to rain. at 7.45am, i was still at woodlands, and i had to rush down, i took a cab. on seletar highway, it started raining lightly. when i got to the club at 8.05am, the weather was IMF, which was instrument flight. had my "lecture" by mr GOH CL. i left for the apron at 8.45am to do my checks, and departed at 9.00am with a few hiccupus at the end of my engine run up checks.
today was the worst excercise i ever had. i mean, flying was easy for me, it was the domestics that was alittle tough. today, i managed somehow with my cehcks and R/T with the least amount of scolding. but the flying training was a complete ZERO. zero visibility. filthy strong winds. and absolutely bad temper. i couldn't see shit outside my window, and i was completely irritated by GOH.
it's so retarded. i tried to maintain wings level, and he was trying to maintain constant heading, at the same time. it was impossible. the wind kept tipping my wings side ways, when i was flying north, the wind tipped me to the right, and i kept sliding east, vice versa. another big problem, was i couldn't regain altitude without the aircraft close stalling. the nose wouldn't pitch up the way i wanted it to, until.... i found out, it was my mistake. i didn't pull hard enough and i didn't power up the throttle. and because i couldn't see anything, i can't maintain constant nose attitude. GOH kept saying, "maintain attitude to the clouds", and i kept thinking, "what? are you born dumb?". i wanted it to end.... but i couldn't, so... kept on trying. not one of my better efforts to be honest. i lost complete motivation.
at the end of m debrief, he said, i was so close to failing, but as the weather played a part in today's events, i got a....DNCO. duty not carried out. thank god, that spared me from my worst fears. but, the next time, i won't be as lucky......
