“We are leading by 76 points. Even if I lose tug-o-war, house deco and marching, I’ll still be leading by ONE point.” That’s my riposte when I was being bang-ed like crap after a shameful lost in tug-o-war. There were 7 skinny guys + 1 fat one where as our opponent –Rodger- had like 6 fat ones? Anyway, coming in to the competition guns a blazing and beaming with confidence, we were thrashed and kicked out of it with our feet in our mouth. We had livita and flour both which was s’pose to help but alas I guess it all boils down to the combined body mass which Rodger obviously won hands down.
House deco is crappy. I am not the most creative one nor do I have the brightest ideas in design. Also, why the fuck do I hv to do so much work even though im in form 6? Those blardy form 5’s should work harder for their house if they want the bragging rights. Nevertheless, complain I do but work I must. Our theme is 50 yrs of independence and chai and I is in charge of building a ferris wheel and a ‘tandu’ to carry our mascot. God Speed!

Lin Sam Sap Man
A gathering of family members that’s what reunion dinners are. With the old rekindling their love and the youngs building theirs, it’s a very family-ish moment.
Every year my family will prepare the dinner. Rather I think I should say my mom =\. But it’s not like I don’t do anything!! This yr is no diff eventho our house is currently undergoing renovation. Considering the circumstances, it would be decent if some1 offered to hv it in their home for once but since we gotten none and with my dad having the utmost feeling that it’s his responsibility to hold it, we were all put to slavery.
We cooked, cleaned and moved things like we’ve never done b4. Really, I prefer to just coordinate the hard work rather than PERFORMING em. Alas, with the head of slaves working her ass off, im expected to work mine too. Thank you papa for hiring 2 maids! Workload reduced by 40%...
As it was customary, we 3 siblings and dad went to pray to granddad and grand aunt who were cremated in a temple in PJ. Since mom isn’t yap it wasn’t compulsory for her to go and also becoz there’s things to be finished.
Our family’s small with a pax of 14. So even with our house upside down, we can still accommodate every1. We’re having stimboat, like we did last year. It’s less a hassle since mom doesn’t hv to cook all the dishes but just prepare them to be thrown into the pot.
Like as it was before, uncle and his family left right after eating while auntie and her family stayed to chit-chat for a lil while. My 1st cousin’s baby is getting cuter and cuter and the urge to pince his cheek is overwhelming. Apparently he only cries over 3 things: Hunger, hot and sleep. Nice!
Reunion dinner has passed and I’ll be waiting for next yr’s when I again will have to clean, move, climb and work like I hv never done b4. Ahhhh, the things I do for family…

MY Fucking Fault!
My leg hurts like fuck and im walking with a slight limp. I lost in my best event- long jump- by 0.01m. I had nvr imagined such a lost which hurts so much. I had also caused my team the gold medal in the 400m relay. I was the last runner and i received the baton in 1st place. Somehow i just started sprinting for the 1st 250m and just lost steam at the final 150m when i saw ruben in front of me. I was sad/angry... alot of emotions where flying inside me and i was very close to giving up. I could not face my teammates. They had ran with all their might but i had let them down.
I had wanted to cry! And to cry so badly... but the tears just would not flow. I guess i was sad and disappointed but not enough. My hopes of becoming the sportsman of the year had just been crushed on my own doing. I wasnt expecting to win gold for the 400m relay but for long jump, i was aiming to beat the school rec of 6.55m. I did not even come close. It's like i was pierced thru my heart everytime i think bout it but alas, the tears would not come.

Saringan....
Oh the emo-ness, thank god it's gone! pop-ed 8 panadols and a bottle of coke in sch... well at least i wanted to. Took 2 instead and swap the coke for plain water after which was getting a lil drowsy and sleepy. Nevertheless, i couldnt bring myself to sleep in Mr. Thum's class! It's like SO interesting ya know?
I was gelabah and chuak the whole time. Every effort was made to pay attention in class but alas, the mind drifts away. I kept thinking bout what's gonna happen during high jump and triple jump and everytime i try to predict, i foresee myself losing. It made my heart skip a beat everytime since im expecting nthg else but a gold.
The girl's 100m sprint was starting when we were still arguing over how to jump the triple jump. I dont understand how the fella can say his FOUR jumps are correct when the name itself says THREE! If you dont know how, dont do it! Pei theng( thamboo) was 1st for her heats but the unexpected sprinter was ching ju who came in 1st on the 2nd heats which shocked us all. My 1st attempt for triple jump was disappointing only managing 10.10m. A guy went 10.37 while another 11.33. It looked very very bleak at that moment! The pressure was on and the situation tense! Luckily i had many ppl supporting me; chris, theen chuan, jiun kei, ying ling and wen yi! Lolz, bobo was there but im not sure if she supported me or not eh? Let's just take it that she was! =) Anyway, my 2nd jump was alrite- 12.01m- Could've jumped further if i got my footing right but anyways that attempt got me a gold. Happy happy!
Oh, apparently there was a mix up or rather both the captains and teacher was busy baking cake and neglected to send up the list for the girls. So ying ling and bobo from rodger and yee hui from treacher couldnt compete in the 100m and long jump. Pity. And while im talknig bout the girls, our representative from thamboo won gold for the long jump and i got chuen-ed:
me : Did u pass?
P.t. : Har? What pass? I thought they see how far i jumped?
me : =.= kkz. so how far did u jump? 1st place?
chai : who 1st?
she : very near only la, 2nd i think!
Me and chai then went to check and she was 1st instead of 2nd and her distance was 3.10m instead of very near only. Since high jump was not due to start yet we lepak-ed there a lil longer. One thing we all noticed was that pei theng would run slowly(normal) very relaxed, step on the line and jump. Land on both her feet and then she would just stand and wipe her hands and go sit on the same spot like....... it's a piece of cake and not even a competition.
High jump was boring! Started with 1.35m and every increase was a meagre 0.4m MAX! Come on i can jump over it with my eyes closed with one leg and no hands! We almost always got into a fight with the form 5's when chai chuen-ed 9 an arrogant prick who was talknig too much cock. Ketara the nata ass mental lemah. He went out of the comp at the next jump. I won my 2nd gold with an attempt to try to not break but at least get close to ru-zens record of 1.76m. I could go no further then 1.70m. Wakakaa, got rm 10 from norhayati just like that and i spend the guys on drinks. Thanx for their support!!
Long jump and 4X400m relay will fall on wednesday and hopefull if all goes well, it'll be another 2 golds for me! My quest to become the sportsman of the yr has become very makeable and my chances very bright. And all this because that genius inside of gopi's (my house capt.) decided to play futsal ytd in which he sprained his ankle. Smart! Very smart. There goes his 100m, 200m and w/e he's taking. He better recover in time for the relays coz we really need him. He needs to be smacked for being a smarty pants.

EMO!!!!
Reunions are always a tad scary for us teenagers. Countless times had we been punished by our uncles for misbehaviour or just sheer naughtiness. So whenever we meet them, we put on our guard, change to an obedient \ good person and throw in our best smile.
Okay, im exaggerating! But the tension is doubtless high and we’re expected to bring ourselves properly. Even more so when u’re getting older yr by yr. Nevertheless it’s always fun and burst of laughter could be heard almost unmistakably. On top of that, our cousin’s babies are…… Fucking cute!
Anyway with such good food, I aint complaining much!
Im not feeling good. I hv no fever, my cough’s receding but I still hv my mucus trying to drip of my nose with countless bats in the cave. Im also getting more talkative and nonsensical maybe a lil pissy and down. Signs that I am indeed sick, but im not! I feel like im suffering from a menstrual cycle. But I don’t feel beautiful. (I read somewhr that girls\woman feels they’re the prettiest\sexiest or at least are best dress when they’re hving blood dripping from their vagina.) But im no girl and I DON’T hv period or w/e shit! I just feel like shit and emo since I hv to compete in 2 events tmrw –high jump and triple jump-.
I know that if im not that my best, I cant get the 2 golds that I so badly need. If I cant perform, some random nata shit’s gonna outdo me and steal my fucking medal that should be fucking mine. But then again, I cant blame him for stealing it since it should be partly my fault for losing it.
My mom has this adept ability of putting the blame on my comp. “ See, play so much comp, now ur eyes paining” or “See, hving fever now, play more comp, good! Good!” and the classic after-reportcard-presentation, “Wow, all red? U learnt all this from the comp? Keep it up if u don’t wanna do medicine!”
I’ll always reply with: “…., * walks away*”
I’ll be posting bout how I performed or fall gracefully to the ground tmrw. And if I don’t get my 2 golds tmrw, I prolly will not compete on Wednesday for my long jump and another event! Fuck, I hope that’s just the emo me speaking! BANKAI!!!!! Tensa Zangetsu!!!! OMFG, the emoness or…..periodness!! ZzzZzzZzz

Topsy-turvy
Everything’s a mess! The floors are covered with sand and dust while debris lie everywhere. My dining table is in the living room and my kitchen is current non-existent. My washing machine’s right behind me now and my fridge next to my comp. Boxes are ubiquitous and the only thing working next door in the lights.
The complexity of renovating the house is as intricate as a maths equation. Easy when u hv the formulas and a plan and confusing when u hv not the slightest idea what u’re about to fall upon. With the Chinese new year just around the corner, the pressure is on to at least get the stuffs at their corresponding spots with the air-cond on the walls instead of lying dead in their boxed in my living room.
The new settee wont be in for cny coz there are still walls needed to be taken down with the debris comes dust and sand and that wont go well with the sofa’s now will it?
Oh well, I’ll only hv to live thru it for a couple of weeks since it’s estimated that they’ll finish constructing/de-constructing after cny. Hmmm, I guess cny’s gonna be a lil sandy and dusty this year. At least I hv a new room to cheer about.
