Brave Sword Try-out

Last Monday was badminton day.
It was a random plan by Theeben and I because we've nothing to do. I figured that it was a good opportunity to bring Kyle's Brave Sword along and give it a try. The original plan was to play at TARC Sports Complex but it was booked for some kinda activity. Then T-ben asked his friends for venue suggestion and found a place at Sri Rampai. The place is still quite new.

Many of our lecture mates came along.
Tze Jian, Leeverpool, Chest Chest, Vinayakraj, Wye Kik, Jeremy, Denise, Mimi and Cynthia Boom Boom Pow Monkey Big Bicep Beruk Lee Suan Chin came together in 3 cars driven by Joel, Wye Kik and T-ben.

The price for court rental is RM20 per hour and shuttles are RM25 per dozen.
It was a lot cheaper compared to Challengers at Cheras. And saves time traveling there too.
ps: I don't like Challenger. Made me emo the last time we went there.
We played for 2 hours and went to have our dinner at McD-the place where you can get free refill as reckoned by Vi.

I'm not particularly good in badminton.
After all, I've quit badminton since standard 6. I can't even smash properly now... Thanks to the old injury on my wrist. The only 2 pros amongst us are T-ben and Chester. One used to be a state player and another had trainings during his younger days. Both are equally good. We had a good time playing and really enjoyed the day.

Happy With Life?

"AM I HAPPY WITH LIFE?"
Have you ever had this question popping out of yer mind?
I had it yesterday...
Or...
Should I say this morning???

Anyhow, it was 2.30am, I was heading to "WONDERLAND" after shutting down my laptop then out of no where, the question popped outta my mind...
My mind was working like a calculator with the plus, minus, multiply and dividing.
I got so puzzled up with it till staying awake for another one hour or so...

The first thing that crossed my mind was my FAMILY.
It was sorta multiplied manner as we're living a much better life compared to a few years back. Dad have gotten a job for a year plus after recovering from his back complications. Mom have gotten a better paid/ better boss job. Simon managed greatly reduce his drinking habit while maintaining a much cooler brain. Kyle(Kelvin) is having a great time at Cambridge and Samantha ain't doing too bad in her high school. Family conflicts and financial problems are down the drain.

Second, the person I've HAD a crush and STILL HAVING a crush.
I've been talking to her more than I've talked to her for the past 10 years. It was like a few booze of morale vodkas each time I talk to her through the phone. I've found out a few more things about her and I think she pretty much feels the same. Of course, some of the times I prefer to just listen to her giggling and just forget all the thoughts mingling in my mind. Even though I can't see her as often as I can in primary/secondary school, I enjoy our close but seemingly not so close friendship in a way that I've got a friend that understands my thoughts better than others. I wouldn't make a move and hopes that things between us will stay as it is for now...

Third comes the death blow - my studies.
Like I've said in the past few posts, I've been studying like CRAZY. Persistent enough to study for more than the sum of effort I've given in my high school life. Yet, it doesn't seem to get me going anywhere. We've gotten a few of our papers back and I've gotten an A, a B and C. It was really disappointing. I might the current top of the class but I've toppled to below average which deemed to be unacceptable in every possible ways. Some people might come to me and say, "Ivan! How can you get such good results?", good results are too crude and vague for a lame table such as mua. A wastrel I am. No matter how much effort is channeled in, the out come will only be the same. I'm not the game master but merely a pawn.

Fourth is the complication - the future.
One of the uncertainties and blanks that are yet to be filled. I've fear for it as it may not be the one that I've hoped for. It is true that when there is a will, there is a way. I'm afraid my way will neither be the highway or the subway but the hard way. With less profound intelligence as Kyle, I'm bound to work twice as hard, give thrice the focus and quadruple the time to study just to get my ass into Cambridge University. The path remains at mist and my torch is burning dimly, can i be persistent enough to reach the end of the road?

Before I can figure out an answer, I dozed into deep slumber...
I'm not in an emo state, so, no worries!!! Be happy!!! Its just a sudden thought that are a subject to stimulate the neurons in my brain - more or less like studying Physics, Chem, Maths, anything...

Lamest GP Lesson

Last Thursday's GP lesson is super lame...
First, we were suppose to write on a piece of paper of the people in class whom is the most expressive face, most hilarious, teacher's pet, future prime minister, most imaginative, most eccentric, makes most money, best English, most likely to score straight As, etc etc...

Then, we were suppose to draw a tree-any tree.
Then exchange our "tree" with the person beside us. I've gotten Kev's "tree". It was one of the most outstanding trees I've ever seen. It has only 8 leaves, no branch, one thin trunk and fibrous roots. Mine have a cloud of leaves, four branches, a thick trunk and bulky roots. Based on the description that Ms.Joanna found on the web, Kev's "tree" reflects him as a person who have little intelligence, but channels all his strength on one thing and knows his goals while I'm a person with solid foundation and uses them properly but doesn't know where I'm heading. Saddddd... LOL...

Before/ After AS Trials

This two weeks have been super busy.

Have been studied like mad, ate with a bottomless stomach and lived a nocturnal life.
All thanks to AS Trials.
I've even exceeded Mr.Loh's suggestion of studying 10 hours/day.
Its crazy, I know...
Perhaps I have to live with it for another few years.
Now that the Trials is over, its like a burden off my shoulders.
Great news is that I'll be retaining my scholarship.
The downside, my grades ain't looking good enough.

Any how, the best thing about the Trials is I get to sleep during the afternoons.
Exam time is usually at 8.30am till 9.30am.
Plus minus the time I take my breakfast, I get to sleep at 12pm till 6pm.
Larry, Tze Jian and I formed a human trafficking syndicate to smuggle Joel Leeverpool in and out of the hostel.
We enjoyed the MU-Liverpool match at TBR too.
Its fun watching MU trash Liverpool. =P

Dum Dum Mun Hoong yang SEXY, Keng Hong, Siew Ru and Bo came on Monday.
They didn't realise that the exam time was at 1.30pm.
LOL...
Dum Dum didn't sleep the night before and dozed off.
He's trully SEXY~


Right after the last paper on Wednesday, we all went to KLCC to watch movie.
Kev, T-ben and Esther Chee Yuen Ting(Go Genting) tagged along.
We watched The Daybreaker.
The story line was okay but the ending seriously potong steam.
I was suppose to be playing futsal with the guys that evening.
But I was made moodless by some people and the journey was freaking time wasting.
I'll never go to that place again.

Now that the Trials is over, I'm a free man again.
Free till not knowing what to do.
Study perhaps???
LOL!!! =P
