Monthly Shoot.

It was bad. The start I mean. In fact it's so bad I shot seven 9s in a row. As in 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 10 10 10. Ending with 93. Worse series I've ever shot in a long long time. But fortunately the two talks given to me during the competition were good. So at least I shot a 99. Overall score 576/600. Second worse in the past few months. Nothing to say just got back damn tired.

Interviews!

It cool to be a Sec Four. Because I got to interview the Sec Ones who were trying to get into the ARC. Extremely fun to see their reactions to my super irrelevant and lame questions. Of course important questions were also asked! Here are some examples of what i encountered during the course of interviewing them:

*At the start*
Me: Hi.
Interviewee: *Stony silence*
Me: Hi!!!
Interviewee: Hi.
----------
*In the middle of the interview*
Me: What's the time now?
Interviewee: 4.50.
Me: No it's 4.52.
Interviewee: *Stony silence*
----------
*Suddenly*
Me: *Pointing at the 5 digit card number* Do you know how many digits there are here?
Interviewee: *Stones* 5.
Me: It's a yes/no question.
Interviewee: HUH?
----------
*For no reason*
Me: *Pointing at some random letter on the card* Do you think this is a letter or an alphabet?
Interviewee: *Thinks damn hard* I... think it's an... alphabet.
Me: ABSOLUTELY WRONG! The alphabet consists of the 26 letters, as in "ABCDEFG...", so this is a LETTER!
Interviewee: *Really confused face*
----------
*Ending*
Me or some other people: Do you have a sister?
Interviewee: Yes.
Me or some other people: HOW OLD????
- OR -
Me or some other people: Do you have a sister?
Interviewee: No.
Me or some other people: *Sad face*

Of course we also made jokes out of extremely high socks and VERY EXTREME hair partings. Hahaha.. One must be there to fully understand the interviewing pleasure...

Penguin

I woke up this morning and I saw a message coming from a sec 3 ACS(I) shooter AND his junior. This is the entire "conversation" from my chat log:

[11:19:18 AM] {[Freedom for Life]]...Any person here got nice
songs(which i do not have) to give me?... has left the
conversation.

Ok. I'll say this. I know ASC(I) has not been winning for some time. I know, penguin, you seriously suck at shooting. Showing off about somebody elses' strength isn't going to make you better. And you don't even know how my juniors are doing, because even I cannot gauge their skill right now. Also I'm not your friend, therefore you're not allowed to call be "honny boi boi". I'll take it as you being disrespectful.

I've always regarded the ACS(I) shooting team as a respectable group of sportsmen. But this kind of appalling behavior has made me doubt my impressions on their discipline level. I hope that Jason (captain) can do something about this.

First Weekend and The Crash of Firefox

I typed a long long essay here and firefox crashed. Thank you firefox! This is the first time I'm experiencing a firefox crash. And it's on the FIRST weekend since school re-opened! Dammit!

Well, the highly anticipated weekend has finally arrived! Even though I have a Chinese composition to complete (Eight hundred words), I'm still going to slack until the last minute. Always procrastinate! I'm aware of it.

Well my sister watched WGTCOTWR (Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit) too and she also found it extremely hilarious. This goes to show that my movies reviews are generally accurate.

Incidentally, the results of Maths quiz I took yesterday have been revealed! I didn't post a message yesterday regarding the quiz because I drifted off to the subconscious word at approximately 9.00A.M. Anyway it was easier than expected but I still made two REALLY LAME CARELESS MISTAKES giving my a grand total of 28/30. Maybe it was the rush (quiz in ten mniutes), maybe I was just being myself.

Also, my birthday is on 14th January! Here's a tip: Buy my present early, because on the 13th January there'll probably be a great rush to get my presents, causing major jams in shopping centres nationwide. I already got one present (super early)! A new badminton racket! I finally replaced the Carbonex B-2000. Now with a MusclePower 28! Not exactly top of the line but neither am I. Hahaha...

Ok better post quick just in case firefox decides to burn it's own tail.

Back to School

Damn. It's the time of the year I've been dreading. It's time to go back to school... It's really amazing how time flies during the holidays. Too amazing, but it's true. Every year, we wait for the inevitable back to school rush, it's just bad.

It's approximately 9.20P.M. now. And I haven't found my pencil case. I reckon it's in my father's car but I can't be bothered to go down and check it out now. So it'll have to wait till tomorrow morning. If it's not there, too bad! I'll just borrow a pen and that's that!

Ok so I heard about a Mathematics test on the first day of school. It's really crazy so I emailed Mr. Ang about it. Luckily it's going to be set on the Thursday instead, which is the third day. It's also a quiz that allows you to be exempted from some work IF you show an advanced understanding in the topics. So basically I expect the quiz to be super duper uber damn difficult. The virtually undoable (pronounced: unn-doo-err-berl) type of quiz.

I'm currently listening to some music and chilling out with what's left of the holidays. Seriously too lazy to prepare for the quiz now. I'll probably start when my friends start. So we can go together and figure out some of our own theories regarding stuff we don't understand.

And some random thoughts: What the hell is 'Godspeed'?

Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

Yay watched WGTCOTWR (Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit) today. It overlapped my plans to train so too bad! Yay so Stine and Xin asked me yesterday night after my training whether I wanted to watch WGTCOTWR with them at 2.45 today. But I had training! So changed to 12.40 show at CineLeisure.

So we were supposed to meet up at 12 but Ivan, Keef, Xin were all late. So poor Mozzie had to endure a few minutes alone with Stine. Hahaha. Anyway that doesn't mean it's unpleasant to be with Stine alone. Maybe just a bit intimida... OH NO DON'T WHACK ME!!!

So we (excluding Keef, haven't arrived yet) went to buy some tickets buy Ceyong appeared there for no reason so I challenged him to Daytona USA again. I completed with him something like 1/2 a lap behind me or more. Also, Xin and Stine came and disturb me for the 8 dollars for the tickets DURING the game. That made me touch the grass during the easiest turn. Reminds me of Boxian pouring some drink into my pellet box.

So we got the tickets and I called Keef even though I knew he was already on the way up (means he was already in CineLeisure). Then in the middle of the conversation we saw him run past the level we were at to go straight to the top. I hung up. And we followed. Keef called again.
Keef: "Where are you?"

I: "We're already inside the theatre." <-- We were on our way up behind him actually.

Keef: "WTH! Where's my ticket??"

I: "We hid it under the rubbish bin. Go look for it." <-- Obviously hoping he would really do that. Just for laughs.

At this moment he was already looking down at us (at the escalator). NO FUN! I was really hoping he would be looking under the bin when we arrived upstairs. That'll be DAMN FUNNY!!!

Ok so now for the review. The show was very funny. A bit random and spastic but cool. The plot is rather unpredictable and sometimes little things in the movie just make it funnier. For example, Gromit and another dog were fighting in toy planes (dogfighting) and when one of the planes crashed, there was an extremely big explosion, contrary to the expectation of just a crash. The movie also had a strong hold on the audience's attention with a suitable level of suspense and action. The story is not worth mentioning.

What's amazing is the animation style. It's stop-motion animated, yet they have a rather high frame rate and even blinking and other small actions were taken care of rather well. Nothing much to say since it's nearing 1A.M. already. So overall: Hilarious! 8/10. <-- Better than Narnia.

P.S. This post was delayed by a nice telephone conversation that lasted approximately 1hour 22minutes.

Training! December 29, 2005 version

The no life life continues. Wake up at 12P.M (Computer: It's now 12P.M. *Alarm starts*), wash up, eat breakfast cum lunch, slack a bit, change clothes, go for training.

(I did all these stuff while SMSing Ding)

So I arrived at Yishun SAFRA Air Weapons Range at approximately 2.30P.M. Saw Carol Lee stoning there with a book, already half in her equipment. So I dao her and proceeded to draw my rifle. The next thing was to take out my equipment and lay them out nicely at the bay. Then I was informed about coach's arrival earliest at 5P.M! HOLY COW! So I stoned, listened to music for about 15 minutes. Then Boxian arrived! Cool! So I stopped listening to music and started to put on my equipment. Checked out my nose (the one that got bashed up) once in a while to make sure it was still there, then started training. Yay nothing special. Exceept for the change in position the day before yesterday.

About 6.30P.M. Coach arrived. Trained a little more, then started the ending sequence (10 shots, 1 on each card). Ended with 97/100 (thanks Boxian for pouring the White Tea shit into my pellet box so + one extra 9) ZIIIIIBEIIIIII!

Yay so coach didn't teach us anything before we were all worn out and left. Yay. So we're going again tomorrow in the afternoon. And to the sec one HCIARC members. Better start training. I didn't see any of you today.
