Monday, October 27

found myself cheerin for liverpool on sundae vs chelsea and wala...they won..and the unbeaten home record at chelsea is broken...GREATo...lols...

wundnt care too much if manu had won at goodison park on sat...despite liverpool victory, i m still wary of chelsea's capabilities to chase for the title...many wuld say liverpool is lookin gd this season...but i tink otherwise..they have looked good too many times b4 but they are still searchin for the crown since 19years ago....i still tink its gona b a chelsea manu title race this season...

dropped points at everton kinda sucks but they deserved to get a point after performin so well at home (only at 2nd half)...hopefully we get max points when west ham and hull visit us...

tt shall be it...and im so happy tt this week's schedule look too gd to b true...gona walk on at 1230 this fri!!! shiok like wat...!!

hehe

Thursday, October 16

was goin thru my archives and realised that 2 years are really a long time ago...so much had happened between now n then...the post dated 2 jan 2008 caught my attention as its regarding my '08 resolutions. guess i might as well do an assessment on it...LOL...

my resolutions were

1) start saVING UP a significant amount of money....!!
2) cut down on late nites....
3) spend more time with my family...
4) enrich myself with useful lifeskills...

i m still not fufillin my 1 entirely...i guess the significant amount will always seems insignificant..

lates nites seem to be on the rise...might bcos of the fact that i only hav my wkends out...and most of the times i dun slp enuff during wkends..

3 has always been the hardest...will try my best as always...

this is the one wich i tink i did pretty well...considerin the fact that i m currently studyin law...wat can b more useful den havin a sturdy knowledge of laws at the back of ur head? hehes

a couple more months b4 the end of '08...hope to acheive more and lookin forward to '09!!

how dumb do people get?
had to come up wif my autobiography for my OFI to read...so decided to post it up here...lols...serve as a storage for future references...

OCT Neo Jun Wei Alven (14)
Squad 3
Autobiography

My name is Neo Jun Wei Alven and I am born on the wee morning of 19th February 1988. It’s been twenty years since I arrived on Earth. Through my autobiography, I hope to portray a better picture of myself and also share my life experiences.

I have 5 family members. They consist of my parents and 2 sisters. I am the only son and stuck in the midst of 2 sisters. My parents came from families with strong teachings and see to that their children do so too. My father works as a driver transporting goods while my mum works as a childcare teacher. Both of them worked very hard in order for my siblings and I to have the proper education we need. We are very thankful to them and hoped that we can soon allow them to have a taste of their fruits of labor.

My elder sister is 22 years old this year and is working as a childcare supervisor. She is someone whom I looked up to. A very independent woman who relies on herself to carve a niche in her career. She is someone whom I always turn to when I encounters problems in my life. She has helped me on several occasions when I needed aid.

My younger sister on the other hand is 19 years old and has just completed her A’ levels a year ago. She has taken on the SAF Women Merit scholarship and has embarked in a whole new career path shortly after she graduated from her junior college. She is one year into army life and is commissioning early next year to get her rank. She will pursue her degree after that. I have always been proud of my little sister as she had been the high flyer in the family. She is a very determined person and strives her hardest to get to where she wanted.

I shall start on my life now that I had introduced my family members. I have always been the active kid in my family. Never was I able to settle down as a kid. Since nursery, even up till now, I have always been known as the outgoing child from the class, never shy to make friends.

As I proceeded to primary school, I was the better academics performer in the class. I had my many ‘firsts’ in my primary school days. I topped my class for the last 3 years in primary school despite that I also discovered my talent in sports and was able to play all kinds of sports. But like the saying goes, “Jack of all trades, master of none.” So in secondary school, I specialized in basketball and made it into the school team where I met one of the most important people of my life, my coach. He was a hard and tough man who had taught me more than just basketball. He is probably the reason why I am the man I am now.

During the 4 years in school, I put in a lot of time into playing basketball for the school, and my academic results plummeted. Being a teenager at that time, nothing seems more important than spending time doing the stuff you loved best. Even my parents were helpless when it comes to persuading me to study. Bet everyone goes through the delinquent stage.

My coach was the one who brought me to my senses and lets just say I became a better student and had a pretty good result for my O’ levels. At the same time, I began to mature and started understanding the way of life. Slowly I began to appreciate my parents’ efforts in raising me and also cherishing all the good things in life.

I pursued a Diploma in Biotechnology in Singapore Polytechnic after my O’ levels. The 3 years are probably the highlights of my life till now. I was exposed to a lot of management experience and varsity life during the 3 years. I was not the high flyer academic wise but was involved in a lot of organizing of the school’s major events.

I was drafted into Chemical & Life Sciences School’s management committee and was appointed the Sports Head. I was given this chance after I contributed in organizing a successful orientation camp. This opportunity also forced me onto a crossroad where I had to make a choice between my Poly basketball team and the committee. I chose the life as a committee member. I more or less gave up the sport that had played an important part of my life, but I never regretted the decision.

I had the chance to understand how budgeting an event is like, how to rally helpers, how to work under pressure and so much more. I enjoyed many fun experiences during my time as the school’s committee member.

Time as a student passed very quickly and soon I received the letter from National Service reminding me of my enlistment date. Enlistment was a big thing for me as many of my uncles and friends had shared their experience with me. My younger sister also included. I told myself then that I would make the most out of my NS years.

As I passed out from Tekong BMTC, I was expecting either Cispec or OCS course waiting for me but alas, I was posted to OCT. I had no idea what it was all about and did not know what to expect from it. 3 weeks into the course now and I am slowly starting to appreciate how things work in HTA.

Never will I be able to experience outfield and all the others army related things; nonetheless, I will still put in my utmost effort in OCT to show my worth. Looking forward to the day where I pass out from HTA as a police inspector, and in the process, learn more life skills and absorb more experiences to allow me to become a better person.

so much tings to tink about....blowin my brains out...

i m lackin in vocab...cant tink of any words to describe my mood now...definitely not EMO....

TroubleD...tts better...more appropiate....

forget it...got a joke to lighten the mood...

a very famous chinese photographer was having a photoshoot wif a beautiful russian model...

despite of the language barrier, he tried to communicate wif the model in english during the shoot...but...the russian model left angrily after he said something to her...and he was left puzzled....

he wanted to say,"open your eyes and smile..."

BUT it sounded like this when he said it out....

"open your ass and smell"

Tuesday, February 19

jus watched a travel show '世界那么大' belgium was the country that they were introducing for that episode...i hav always love to watch travel shows and to learn about the different cultures and interesting things about the many other countries out there...born in singapore...a small small country...despite the government's effort to globalise the nation....it is still difficult to reali experience the small little things that the other countries hav in them...

the show was introducing about belgium's beers and the different types of them...and also the way they used beer in their cuisine...very very intriguing...and also they showed a church...the unique thing about the church is that it is the one of the only 2 churches in the world that has in their possession a cloth smeared with Jesus's blood...in another word...they hav the very last bit of wats left of the Lord...

since todae is my 20th bdae...i shall make a wish...and i hope it will come true...that is to be able to travel around the world and learn more about the other countries out dere on the globe...

>>>part of the world...<<<

half a week's work done...very enrichin...learn new stuff everyday....!new project comin up in the farm..a new butterfly kit...still in the R&D stage...very intriguing...definitely an attraction point in the near future...

a joke to share...

ever since 911 incident the US customs has been very strict with luggage checks and the story goes...

a chinese tourist came with his luggage and a custom officer checks his luggage and saw a bundle of 7 underwears and asks the chinese tourist y did he bundle them up...the chinese tourist (can't speak good english) said while pointin to each of the underwears, "monday, tuesday,wednesday..." den the custom officer let him go...

next came a french...he had a similar bundle of underwears in his luggage...but he only bundled 5 of them...the custom officer den questioned him bout them...he ans, "monday,tuesday.....weekend we dun wear underwears" french ppl...being romantic...dun wear underwear on wkends...

lastly...an indian came...he had a bundle of 12 underwears...! the officer was puzzled...den he asked bout them...the indian ans...,"january, february,march,april...."

another dirty joke that i heard recently...LOL...

a couple is travellin by train around europe...bcos they have to spend the nite in the train with other ppl...they came up wif a code that they wuld say when they wana hav sex... 'i wana hav some oranges...'

the train bunks seperated by upper and lower decks...the couple had the upper bunk...and they spent the nite sayin 'i wana hav some oranges' to each other...

den the tourist slpin in the lower bunk complained to them,"eat your oranges and stop sprayin the orange juices...!!!

jus finished watchin 'wedding daze' by jason biggs and isla fisher...DAMN...wat a nice show...LOLs....had a part in the show wich i tot was hilarious and kinda romantic in a way...? jus wana share it...hehe...

jason biggs...anderson
isla fisher...kathie

brief outline of the plot that lead to the hilarious part...anderson devastated with the death of his gf...after his atrocious proposal....hahahs...cant seem to get his head bac to reality and deteoriated his life for 1 year...BLAH BLAH (watch the show for these parts...)

he suddenly proposed to kathie cos of his friend's taunt...she is a waitress in a restaurant....a stranger that he had never met before hu actually said yes.... (HE totally din expect that...)

they went for a stroll and had this dialogue..

kathie, "anderson, when u asked mi to marry u...u probably picked the only girl in the whole world that wuld say yes...i dun think that that was a coincidence...do YOU...?"

"i dunno...?"

"do you believe in fate?"

anderson, "no"

"NEITHER do I...!! you see this is meant to be...!"

duno if u guys appreciate the humor here...anyway...i jus find it hilariously romantic...how i wish this culd happen to mi....cant imagine wat a reaction i wuld get if i propose to a stranger....and someone as pretty as isla fisher?

mayb a slap...? hu noes....

Friday, January 18

was jus wondering...does splurgin ur feelings in vulgarities on ur blog works in makin u feel better? i seldom do that...Hmmm...mayb a couple of posts?

on the contrary i tink rantin works better verbally...but of cos...how many of us can reali jus spout it out loud...doubt many ppl can see me rant at them except for my buddies...hahas...dun u find it weird...most ppl find it easier to rant at their closest friends....

mayb for ppl wif freaking high EQ...they tend to bottle these frustrations inside them...seems gd on the outside...but as the frustrations increase, they still needa find a way to get rid of them...if not...it wuld results in some serious mental prob...
----------------------------------------------
bored...exams are around the cornor...and its the final sem...nothin much left to be said...

another whole new chapter waiting to start after graduation...haiz...reality kicks in real hard...straight up in ur face...as u get older...the first wave normally wuld be

A JOB....! next up....

MONEY....? after which....

FAMILY....?

still rmb ur primary sch teacher askin u wats ur ambition....? wat dya wana be when u grow up?

common answers: FIREMAN....POLICEMAN....TEACHER....blah blah...

at that point of ur life u might be tinkin of "i wana save ppl" "i wana be the hero and bring the bad guys to justice" "i wana educate the young"

BULLSHIT....

wat u will tink of these ambitions NOW...are....WOW...govt jobs...real GOOD PAYs....great BENEFITS....DAMN...the boNUSes...!!

how many people reali have the courage to pursue wat they wan....singaporean are brought up in a realistic way...we've been instilled with the thinkin of,

EM1....Triple Science....A'level...Degree...get a job with gd pay....settle down...start a family....

tts about any typical singaporeans' life...thats why i've always look up to ppl hu dared to dream and go all out to reali acheive their dreams....i noe i will most prob turn out to be the 'typical' singaporean guy...

10 years down the road...i hope i will be doin fine...i hope i would hav already skydived....bungejumped...and at least done backpack travel ard europe....the last ting i wana picture is that alven the old man tryin to do things that he wishes to do when he was young and not bein able to accomplish them at an old ripe age....

>>>a twenty year old's woes...<<<
