Why Like That? Dunno la..

Yes, silence is golden. It enables people to see. And I am still looking around.

I see lots. How some people can let go easily. They are able to change their mindset in a short time. Is that good? Maybe.

Did I let go of things easily? Yes, I hope so. Forgetting things is a real skill. Is that good or bad? Is it really possible to forget everything, and not remember a thing? That's hard.

People do remember.

And why some people are able to hold on like forever? Don't they grow tired of things that they will never get? Perhaps, this is just a way of self-motivation. A way of Hope. As long as Time is still moving, Hope is all around.

Some people like to hold on to Hope for as long as they can. I used to do that. But now, I don't. At least not too much

Sometimes, sitting around and observing can be scary. Seeing events unfolding infront of me, it's rather sad. Sometimes, I don't understand why some people want to hurt themselves by holding on. Isn't letting go, a good choice? Won't letting go be a form of relieve?

And after questioning them, it's always back to questioning myself: why did I hold on for so long? I guess I can answer that.

It's the Belief. A Belief that is kept alive with the faintest light possible. Am I explaining why my blog is named after that word? Perhaps it used to.

I hope I no longer look forward to certain things. And I hope that people can do likewise. Don't fade this little hope. I am still alive, yes.


Happily transferred Hazelsky.net over to GoDaddy.com, and thought of playing with a bit of SSL. And now, I need to generate a CSR, and my this hosting 'company' did not enable SSL functions for its users. How? Lol. Generate CSR!!!!


Went for an afternoon swim with Zhenyao this afternoon. The sun was soooo hot! But it's shiok. The water's still quite cooling. I wished I can stay there longer, till 4, but no, I don't want to be too much of a lobster. Went to IMM on Monday, but ended up buying nothing much. Walking around alone can be quite boring, but that's the way it should be.

And I just love that song by Akon. And I love to blast that song by Evanescence. Lol… Totally no link to the above… 😛


Went for the first EE2001 lab session. Oh well, the 1983 batch of guys have to face another milestone for being a guinea pig. Even the teaching assistants did not know how certain things are going to be done. And so, more or less, we are going to set the standard. Well done. Programmed a chip, everything looked ok, and we never got past the first chip test. In the end they found out that the chips had not been initialised. And I was thinking of playing with the code, like, making a LED dance…. etc… haiz…

Tooooooo bad…. Next time ba.

Simple, happy melody, direct lyrics, straight to the point. A possible kbox duet song, but… but… Well, never mind…

To sing this song, the mood must be correct, or else, it will become a sad song. So…


Currently still enjoying school life. I quite like my current timetable, even though, when fully active, it will be able to kill me. So many labs, and 2 projects.

I shall survive. If that's the way I like, I will survive.

At least there are less things bothering me for the semester. For now. I am glad with my current arrangement.


During EE2001 briefing, we met Li Chao for the first time. He's a friendly guy! Hahaha. Anyway, a sentence that always floated up: it's good to have girls in a team. Yeah, I know that, I want that, but it always don't work that way. And so be it.

Never mind, he did not know the logistics behind all the decisions. People wanting to be with certain people, people don't want to be with certain people, etc etc etc. In the end, that's the outcome. And so be it.

I have no comments on team-forming decisions. And so be it. Whoever teams with whoever, I don't care too much. That's the best decision. Lk Theory has to be applied. Do not anticipate your team mates, or else the disappointment will be greater. Let it be a surprise instead.

That's all for now. Lol…

Kbox Day!~

Went to school early in the morning, at 10am, to listen to Prof CS Chang talking about energy systems introduction. Said stories here and there. Quite interesting facts here and there, and 1 hour's up! Lol…

While walking past LT6, Grace, Edwin and I were stopped by someone from NUSSU PRU to make paper cranes! Lol.. She said that for every paper crane folded, Song He (that rice brand) will donate 1 bowl of rice to charity! Wow…. in the end we were there for the next half an hour, completing around 8 cranes. That's 8 bowls of rice! Oooo… will fold more if we have the time though… Lol…

Went over to meet Ben at Subway@YIH. Yummy first subway meal. I bought a 6-inch tuna sandwich. Wheat bread. mmmm not bad… Yummy yummy…. *drools*

After that, went over to Central Library RBR section to look at some DSP books. Hmm… looks abit like the notes, but more in detail.

Went to take 10 to Suntec. Ben and I were supposed to meet Joan and Weimin for Kbox. We reached slightly past 2, but they were still at Sim Lim. And so, Ben and I went into Carrefour and spent the next 45 minutes playing XBox. Well well…

And Kbox! We took the standard package instead of the student rate. More worth it. 2 standard drinks and 5 hours of singing till 8pm! I drank Tequila with Sprite (and what do you call that? Don't know) and Tiger. Lol…. beer! Yummy bier. Bier ist gut.

Singing was ok. Still, haven't hear the perfect one, but this round's slightly better! And yes, ??! Yay… I love ??! Lalalalalaaaa… Basically today's session was singing whatever songs that somebody added in but nobody wanted to sing… Lol… I had no idea what songs to sing!

After that, met Junrong for his shopping. Well… finally he found something. Lol. Good. And then we went for dinner while Ben went home first. Home was next in the list.

Fun day! Yay…

School Starts!!!

Yay…. finally school has started! First day of school, and I was greeted by the usual thing: running for 183, standing until after Toh Guan area, and squeezing out of the bus at the Engin bus stop. Usual working crowd, going to work, taking 183. No choice, because somehow, 188 will be worse. 96 too.

This scene has become very mundane, especially for 9am days.

Today's first lecture was EE3101 Digital Signal Processing. Ben was late, and Grace was late. The crowd was still ok, and Melissa was quite alright while lecturing. The only thing was, what was she discussing about? OMG signals + system and control, sem 1 05/06. And now's sem 1 06/07. Well done. Currently trying to recall all the crap that I have learnt last year. Impulse? Unit step? And…. convolution???

Duhz…

After that, ate lunch at Olive Cove. The menu did not change much actually. Everything's the same. Furniture, plates, etc etc etc, and the aunties. Lol. Ate the pasta that looked like mee-pok. (don't know how to spell that name…). Still edible.

Went for EE3601 Bio-instrumentation and Signal Processing lecture. Dr Sada (full name too long to be spelled correctly without referring to lecture notes…) was ok. Stories here and there, not much details yet. Somehow it seems like I have been very pro-bio? LSM1304 Microbes and Man, LSM1301 General Biology, and now this… But anyway, bio-related stuffs can be fun!

Went for a swim at BB with Zhenyao after that. It looks like Monday afternoon after 4pm will not be a good time for future swims. So I guess, for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, swims after 4pm will be strong not recommended.

After that, I thought of going IMM, but decided against the idea. Too sianz.


Ok, back-dating events:

On Sunday, I went back to CSS with a few guys in the morning, at 11am. Walked around, looked around, noticing the changes here and there…

That should be the last time that we will ever land our foot in CSS @ JE. Coming year-end, the school will be so close to my home… Too bad for them, there's nothing much over here.

Met a few guys and girls here and there, saw Mr & Mrs Leong, and their son! Saw Mrs Yeo! Mrs Yip, and even Mrs Lim! Wow wow… Not much pictures to update, because they are all in my phone. Keep them there for now.

And Mr Yong had retired I guess. No chance to talk to Mr Leong, much less ask him. Haiz… Why he that day, eye put stamp, waved at him but he did not see??? Now how are we going to find him? Go Westmall everyday and hope that 1 day, he will appear? Lol…

But his face is still on the school list? Hmm

I forgot the hotmail address that he was using around 6-7 years ago. I thought I remembered, but I was told that I have got the wrong email address. Well well…

Left the place quite early, close to 1. We had basketball matches to catch.

Ate Mac at West Coast Park, and off we went to Singapore Indoor Stadium to watch the Philips Singapore Cup tournaments. 3 games in a row. Exciting for some. Damn boring sometimes. Some lack the skills, the courage, the power. And biased commentators and very biased peorons controlling the siao sound effects. The host for the day sounded like he's hosting some WWE match… well well.

After that, went to Suntec for dinner. The matches ended at around 8+! Jalan around a bit, and home.

And yeah, thanks RF for the tix. Wahahaha…


Saturday was stay-home day. So sianz. Parents went out, so I decided to be a ???. Played around with games. Played around with Flash. Played around with sounds. Played around with Dreamweaver. Played around with Adobe. Channel U was showing the repeat telecast of the NDP. I did not want to watch again.

Nothing happened for the day. Quiet day…


Ok, things to do for this new sem!

  1. Pull up my caps. (as usual)
  2. Stone less (a bit hard)
  3. Swim more (even harder)
  4. Play less (maintain)
  5. Work hard (sounds impossible for me)

And some other mini things!

  1. disown all brothers and sisters. Makes no difference to me and to them.
  2. Think abit more in terms of me. Have to be selfish sometimes. When people don't think for/about you, help yourself.
  3. Watch, see, learn, evaluate, change.

For now, it's sleep first.

New Layout On Hold For Awhile….

Ahhh… new layout… but somehow, I do not know how I can go make one out of nothing.

I think I should just KIV.

But I have to update before 14 August. Hmm.. Can la….

Wow… Correct Choice…

You know what is a correct choice?

A correct choice, is when something is going to happen, and you are part of it, and you do not know if your decision is a good one.

When that something happens, and you see the outcome, and it's acceptable, and you are able to carry a smile, then most probably it's a correct choice. Who cares what if you did a wrong decision? That something is already over.

Correct choices are just great! Yay!

Week 0

Alright, this is bidding week! Got the modules that I have wanted, so hopefully everything else's ok. Just finished adding another shelf to my DIY shelving. Now the number of shelves is 2. If there's a need, I can still add another…

Swam in the afternoon last Wednesday. That was not the best timing to swim. So many people!!! Swam again on Friday morning, and that's better. S71 outing was ok, although I was a bit sian. Played pool with Zhenyao after that, and trashed him. Wahahaha….

Went to JB for a bit of shopping on Thursday. Bought things here and there, and spent quite a sum… lol…

No bball last Sunday, as no one's free. And worse, the weather's super good! 2 consecutive weeks without bball…

Went for ECE welcome tea. Nothing much actually, as they were like repeating the same thing. Ate lunch outside Lt7a. mmMmmm still edible. Lol. Xinli bought for me ?????? from Taiwan! But too bad, cannot play, because the minimum requirement is Chinese Windows. Well well. Thanks anyway! Hee… Well, at least the box's nice to look at.. lol.

Now, I know why I cannot find certain games in Singapore.

And Xinli held the record for the most belated bday present! Congrats! I think this was the second time already… it's like a gift exchange program…. hmm…

Played pool with Jiahui and Ben at RC after that. Quite a lot of people actually, but there's empty tables around. Played and played, till 5.30pm, and went off.

Today's KBox was at JE with Xinli and Junrong. Sang and sang. + Secret Recipe. Hmm.

Today's singing was ok. I just realised the lyrics in some of the songs I had sung were a bit from profound than I thought…

Yeah… looking from a different perspective.

Some songs were allowed to rest. Some songs were revived. Some songs were tried. Some songs were killed. So far, I have not found the perfect one. Not that I am perfect, no, I am not. It's just hard. Never mind.

Arghhh… I still need around 100 points for the Giordano membership upgrade. I need to achieve that by the end of this month. Somehow, it looks possible. Anyone wants to buy anything from Giordano? While at IMM, Xinli bought 3 shirts, and I bought 1 pair of jeans, and Junrong was just off-mood to be in the buying mood… lol…

What will happen tomorrow? I think something will happen tomorrow…. maybe…

The Coin

The Tablet

The Clothes

And more…

Blog Preview #1: info retrieval via rss

Ok, for blogspot, it's easy. Every account should have it, and should be enabled by default.

For example: http://chuan3205.blogspot.com/atom.xml.

They use Atom. Hmm… Maybe I should try to use Atom too? But the difference is not too big, I think…

Ok, now, what's next?
