An old saying has repeated its fate as our fruit of labour gave us the sweetness of winning the Catholic High School Annual Country Meet 2008.
PHILLIPPE RULES!
21st February, our fateful day as we gather. With ambience of joyous, excitement, jubilant, most importantly the spirit of Catholic High Family roamed the whole Bishan Park 1. Certainly, this has been the day I'm waiting for after three years of 2nds.
Three years had been hard but I thought it to be something worthy to wait for. Besides, this victory was not just brought by me, without the efforts from the rest of the Phillippians, we would not be able to reach such height. As i was telling the runners and myself that
"We are not just running for ourselves but for the house, for sec 4s, it's to left the heritage for our juniors to follow!"
Indeed, our efforts paid off for such a marvelous achievement for Phillippe winning the first Challenge Shield for Cross Country ever since this event began. Also, it's a heart warming for teachers who joined the Teachers' race and teachers who volunteered themselves at the back of the mass run pushing the slowers ones on. They put themselves on the front line, fighting the odds together with us.
Finishing the race was quite arduous for those who lack of fitness, yet I’m thankful for the majority who were able to complete the 3.5 km route. Earning the points was second priority then, overcoming their physical aspects took the centre stage.
Receiving the Challenge Shield definitely delights anyone, more importantly I felt Fate was still kind to me.
Edward House may have an interesting way of cheering on that day; the true limelight of the day absolutely will go to Mr. Steven Quay, who was such eye catching figure during the cheers of Noel House.
"WHO"S THE BEST!" incorporated of the hands around his head! "NOEL!" The crowd replied in shirk….
On the other hand, our Philippe cheers certainly a worthly opponent to all three houses with the coalition of the whole. In addition of the Ehengicious and Longicious! Who can resist the force! haha....

Back after the liberation from the heart breaking prelim, i have deduced that this is the worse wake up call for me from my 1 year of dream. I have netted in more than 15 for my L1 R5. The most atrocious result ever in my 18 years of life. Furthermore, this is the start of a fresh year, but it beginned with a bad note.
Despite this short comings, i do possess a positive view on this finishing when it clearly pointed out all my weaknesses, in either languages and theory-based subjects. It will not be a flying start but at least, this will be a favourable commence of adjustments on my study techniques and memorising skills.
人生大舞台,舞台小人生,入乎其内却超出其外。我不能隐瞒自我挫折,失败,被彻底摧毁,但还有那置之此地而后生。 没人有平坦的一生,我们总需要一些在路上的坎坷从而让自己升华,认识许多人一生都在寻找的真谛。在人生的冲刺当中,我们还是希望能运用古人之智,遥望未来憧景。在茫茫人海中不失去对生活的渴望,不当一个匆匆的行人,让都市的忙碌的盲目掩盖你的双眼。不被吴仁玷污我们纯洁的心灵。

After an approximately 9 years, this year's reunion dinner is the most precious course of meal for my family. For the first time in 9 years, we spent the Chinese New Year Eve together as a family. A great sensation that brings about the new year, a time for family to be in unison. Although we quarrelled, fight, at times conflicts, this festive season had just brought a closure.
Went for our annual visit to my uncle's house. Exciting and appealing for all the laughters and convivial moments that could only be felt once a year. Also to meet my uncle's daughter who will be going abroad in continuation of her studies in Australia. I do and hope that she can do well and have an enjoyable time to pay for all her labour kind of effort.
Also, we watched the Kungfu Dunk yesterday. Witnessing the birth of another super duper star in the making but, the public's preferrence still fall towards Stephen Chow. People are simply cant resist the temptations from the imaginative mind of the Master Chow than Emo Chou. Besides, it's comparing fluffy alien dog with a plain red basketball. In addition, the age gap of the two stars, which means the difference in experiences. Expressing which is finer in their cleverness to suit the viewers' appetite. In my opinion, Master Chow had made a breakthrough from his role of invincible protagonist to a supporting actor who died in the climax of the movie. The switch was brilliant in such a way touching the viewer's hearts from the saddest moments of the single parent family. An admirable technique which prevail upon the people to be convinced on the storyline. On the other hand, Emo Chou's film is quite breathtaking to the extent that the director added much of the elements of surprises into fragments of the show. Areas where we find it similiar to Kungfu Football by Master Chow few years back. Generally, it is still a good movie for the effects and the ending. Time travel 乾坤大挪移! Most importantly, featuring Jacky Wu at the beginning is such a hilarious move! This shall end my movie review :D...
Next up to my dearest study. The previous was indeed hard to last through. To skip trainings and get my pace of hectic studying back on track, did not make it's effect fast enough when i'm so coped up with other stuffs. Even then, i still need work hard from now although i'm serously tempted....
