I think finding old friends may even be more meaningful than finding new friends.

This was what happened

last monday
jaesung: kai! i might be coming to singapore this week

kai: "oh okay cool, confirm with me again!"
(you see, at this point i thought he was just joking. because he said he was gona come twice but both times he couldnt make it. ALSO, who goes HEY I AM FLYING DOWN THIS WEEK)

Tuesday
Jaesung " KAI i am coming on thursday, confirm already

KAI: whuuuuuuuut O.O (okay maybe my eyes was just o.o)

WED
i started asking the class which was the better day to meet jaesung. fri or sat.

AND if you all havent checked out his album. DO SO!. havent really checked out the music, but the pictures are damn cool.

THURS
sung flew in

FRI
I met him at ion+ ordered bbq stuff

Sat we had bbq and sun went by. The next moment, he was preparing to fly off on monday.
that crazy dude skipped one day of school. And the next day he had college interview or something

Epic week.  The highlight of meeting him was hearing him say "wow, its like i just left last week"
And i share the same sentiments. There was no awkward moments, it was like old times. I really hope that we do go to korea after army.

I have been hearing alot of sad stuff recently. And its not all about japan.  I was at this clinic and i over heard 2 china man talking,

dude 1: So why are are in the hospital

Dude 2: My finger is giving me problems. I need to amputate it

dude 1: why what happen

Dude 2: I am a carpenter, i keep gripping stuff so my fingers harden. I had surgery to losen my finger. But now the index finger is infected. They say it needs to be amputated. Anyway, they wana cut then cut lah. I still have 4 other fingers. So why are you here

dude 1:  I am injured as well. i broke my arm

Dude 2: oh how did it happen. And Don't worry you have the other hand.

dude 1:  oh I fell. I do construction. But i broke both my arms. My arms are useless now, i cant do hard labour

Dude 2:  thats quite pityful. thankfully you are alive. so did you call your family

dude 1: no lah why bother calling them and make them worry. Yeah its very lucky that we are both alright.


WTF. I swear they were talking in this nonchalent manner.  for a more accurate translation the last line was "wo men hen xin yun, liang ren dou mei shi" how the bloody hell is this mei shi.

Maybe this little transcript here might not have impacted you that greatly. But imagine that you are sitting next to them. And just before they started talking, you had that, "I hate china man/ Gross, China man/ why you so loud china man" mentality. And you are wondering why are they in the same room as you. After hearing them, it makes you feel so embarassed and guilty.

I only work 4 days a week now! yay. Its a really weird situation in my office now. My boss and I both know that she cant find enough work for me to do. But we dont acknowledge that. Haha so i read my news and act busy. And she seldom check on me so that i dont have to say I AM DONE.

Yep so i have been learning stock trading on my off day. Been to a course as well, learnt quite alot of shits. I am now able to recognise Candle Sticks trends. Still so many things to learnt. Buying stocks becomes like a formula once you understand all these indices. Damn glad that Soo is in this as well. At least i have someone to discuss with.

To the people i care about

Doralyn Chan, I wish you all the best for lse.

Jinnie, hope you come back with a Nija boyfriend. I will be damn good friends with him.

Qiao Wei, Becky (people going to US). Qiao if you are going to boston College, i saw the school, its beside Red Sox stadium!!! If I go US for hols, watch one game with me! :D errr becky, where you are, your baseball team suck so, no. Ice hockey maybe.

Err rest of the peeps like felly and 02 guys. prob staying in singapore! We can meet up!

News that concerns me on 11 March.
1)I Saw Cheryl Fang on Urban today. Lol damn cool. Fangz is always taking part in this kinda competition. If you are somehow reading this, congrats.

2) Tsunami Striked Japan today. Gimz! Fret not. Geologist say that major eartquake strike once every 70 years. So as long as you dont retain for 69years at Waseda and be some ultra senior of the school, you are relatively safe.

3) Bought a razor mouse at IT fair.  3 words. Its Damn Cool.

Do You believe in God? I do.

Strange, unbelievable, stuff have always happened in my life. These events, though initially seemed bad, but it never is. Now I believe and understand why people say "Put your trust in him, and that His ways are higher than yours"

When I was P6, I wanted to enter either NUS high or ACSI. and if somehow my results crashed, and god forbids, I would have went to Bukit panjang govt high (I KNOW RIGHT!). When i got my results of 248, I was satisfied but nevertheless slightly disappointed because i was just a few points shy of the 2 schools i wanted to go.  You see, 248 is a nowhere here nor there kinda thing, no acs, nus and a little too high for Bukit panjang.

That was when I discovered another option -SJI. Well, i didnt jump into that idea straight away. I still contemplated, cause it was quite far and i knew little about the school. I flipped the book. Trying to see if there are other shools, that a score of 248 allows me to go to. There simply, was none. It was a clear direction  Go To SJI!.

SJI it was! I had the best 2 years of my education there. I made the best of friends. Went into the perfect class. If my grades were to be +1 or -1 diff i would be in an entirely different class. And I could see myself not fitting in if i were to be in the next or previous class. The plan of god was just too perfect. Of course i didnt see all these puzzles fitting into place when it was happening to me. It was only a few months in to my secondary life which i realised all of this.

So how is that relavent? You see, I wana work in the bank. But there isnt any degree that directs you through that path. So back in IP i had an idea that i should either be doing economics or Engineering. But which was it? So after talking to people working in banks and checking up the net, I found out that to be an invesment banker, Its preferred that one studies engineering.

Now, isnt that simple. Engineering is the choice of course! But hell! there are so many engineering courses and i'm interested in a few. So I prayed. God, you will give me the results and show me the course you think is best for me. Well, I am no Jacob, my faith is unlike his where he was willing to sacrifice his son cause God told him to. So I never really thought or knew how the sign would be given to me for the step of my life.

And today Tim awesome Soo. gave me the best news. He called to tell me about the link where i can find all the cut off points for NUS. And there it was ABB/C was the cut off for material science. It has always been my course of choice but I wasnt too sure still. And for NUS case the H1 that is taken into consideration is your GP. which was exactly waht i got as well. Now, going for open houses is just a formality cause i already know whats installed for me.

So if you are an A lvl kid, let God make the choice for you. Cause it will always be the better choice

Due to popular demand i shall start blogging abit more often now.
I re-read my previous post, and OMG, those post sound nothing like me. I dont even recall writing them. But its fun to read though.

GUYS, I'm currently searching for the perfect game for me to pass time. As of now i want gameboy pokemon yellow version. ANYBODY HAVE.

Today I discovered this picture of Robert Pattinson



men these days are getting fat. I therefore declare that I, Tay Kai Xun, will upload the name of man and will...



















never turn into rollypolly (heh!)



And I will also buy my girlfriend teh ping in school tmr.

According to lj i have not posted since 1 month ago. Well, its good to finally be able to be back in my room sitting infront of my com once again! I just realised in the past 1 month I wasn't at home for 20 days. On the last few days, i was dying of fatigue. I felt like collapsing at sentosa and at obs.

Hmm its been too long since i last posted and i cant be bothered to write stuff in chronological order. So, i shall post whatever that so happens to float by my mind.

1) My hair is rather long and thick now, it takes longer than the usual 5 mins to dry. Now, its half an hour since i showered and its still moist. Too lazy to cut, besides i kinda like the messed up look.

2) Most memorable thing at ISL. CROSSING ROADS. Its so damn fun. EXCITING TTM. Especially on the last night when we were there. It was 2am and we went out by ourselves, apparently vietnam just won East Timor 8-0 in the soccer sea games. The roads were crazily packed with people waving viet flag ridding down the streets.

3) At ISL, i learnt now to be a construction worker. Check out facebook pics. I think we made the job of a construction worker look glamarous. I mean, check out the face mask, the shades, gloves and caps. Totally cool man

4) Temesak camp was fun. But, i cannot bring myself to enjoy it. Felt guilty and missed dor too much. This HCI guy in my group was in the same plight as me. He and her was seperated by camps for 21 days. lol ttm

5) Hmm want to give a shout out how much I missed my bed, smell of my room.

hmm my head is starting to hurt again. so thats it for now. edit later

YLTC groupings are interesting,
I get a kick out of beating the system.
Just when the teachers thought they were geniuses and could seperate us into groups full of strangers.

Before i go on, facts you must know:
There are 6 of my classmates going + and at least 3 other IP people, and YLTC usually have 5 groups at max. So, the chances of me getting into a group with someone i know is damn high. And then, I came to know that teachers are having 10 groups this year. What bastards! It was like they were against us or something.

And when the groupings came out, yeah... none of us were grouped with any IP people. But! lol i got grouped with Doralyn. So much for trying to seperate us into groups with people we dont know, SUCKERS!

Yeah, MY LIFE IS AVERAGE. But i get a kick out of beating the system.

Tomorrow YLTC!

Have you read Eragon? Yes the weird dragon cover page book - Eragon
I think it has got to be one of my favourite books of all times. Dont give me weird looks or say tsk what a boy. I know many other girls who liked the book and the reason for liking the book is not because of those fighting fantasy scenes and its definitely not for the stupid dragon.

Its deeper than that.

The book explored a concept of language. In that book, It states in the "Ancient Language" one cannot lie when conversing in it. One cannot say a phrase or word with-out having that same intention. One cannot pen down anthing which he does not mean.
One cannot say,

I want to get a drink
I want to be alone
I am happy
only unless he truely desires/feel/mean so.


It would be a powerful tool in the world today. The basis of conspiracy, laws, friendship, relationship will be vastly altered when you live in a world in which you cant lie.

There is one flaw in this language though. One could give half-truths. For example if one were to be ask a generic question
"Are you happy?"
Because of the vagueness of the question, even if you are the hell low point of your life, you could tweak the question.
You could still say
"Yes I am very happy" (yes, happy but not happy with life but happy that person one inquired about me)
If you havent noticed,the "Ancient Language" encourages craftyness, slyness and of course intelligence. I think it would be mighty fun to speak in that language.

So anyway,
That, my friends, is the reason why i am so intrigued by that book - the concept of a language which you cannot lie in.

From time to time i would wonder, what if this concept applies to us. What if there is indeed a language which we cant speak falsely in. Would we then be over-trusting? Would the world unltimately be an easier place to live in.
Would,
I love you
be so easy to say?
