Im in HK, and im lovin' it!... lol... errr no, that wasn't from maccas :P I made it up randomly... >_> <_< X_X!!!!
yea well today im just too lazy to write proper so ill give a somewhat quick run down of the overall events that have happened in the days since I arrived in HK.
The plane was delayed 2 hrs (thats a good thing). Wanna know why? coz the f***ing travel agency didn't send us the paper ticket for check in... hmm smart, and we supposed it was an e-ticket... f***ed us up at the airport, had to run back to chatswood to get the ticket and come back to airport just in time for checkin... Long story... but neways i slept on plane and then got to HK and then went to uncles place and then unpacked and then slept and then...
New day... went out with rachel for a whole day to TST and MK and then did lots of stuff and then got tired and then went home and then slept and then...
Today... Walked around mongkok by myself... lots fun...im srs! so much to discover by urself! and then came back to olympic and then had dinner and then went out again and then bought some shampoo/conditioner and some gatsby styling things and then came home and then watched tv and then showered and then im typing now...
Feature for today: "and then"
NITE! |

die jor la
I wonder whats the point of playing 5 hrs of tennis at 38 degrees... They say its good for you. ANYWAY we played Joey's today and over all lost 6 matches to 3.
At 5-4 in the last set I was buggered. No strength. Suffering from heat exhaustion. I was about to collapse. Lost all drive. Even as I type this now, Ive got this stupid friggin pain in my head... Am i dehydrating?? lol. that abbo guy is crazy.. lasted through all that and survived to come back at 4-3 and win it 6-4... =.=!!! im so pissed. I lost 6-3 6-4 in singles as no.6 player in the 1sts division today. 1sts players are crazy!~ cant help to say how crazy they are... such crazy endurance.. even adam was dead in the last set... and u know what? we didnt even get to 3 sets... shows how friggin hot it was today...
No.1 Player, matt, one his singles *i think o_0*.. hehe he was funny... he moved his whole resting chair across the court just to place it under the shade... Joey's opposition had no choice but to join this rebelious act of chair removal from the court hahha.
This morning was great fun.. errm.. should i mention the details? we'll wait and see the answer shortly after i confirm details with a special person^_^.Current Mood:  Obviously dead la~! Current Music: 陳慧琳 - 假天真 |

We got our 4u results today! omg 70%... pisses me off coz i know i couldv'e done better. Ranked now 9th in the 4u maths... hehehe therefore 9th in the school =^_^=
Im kinda happy today... but kind of sad... :( Do friends abandon their friends so freely and effortless? I wonder where school life will end up at this time next year. Friends, friends, friends... hmmmmmm.... Im still unsure who is really friend or foe...
Boarders - Day boys... theres a difference. Upon having a long discussion with Adam, I hv found that ever since he had become a boarder, he has become distant to me, but on the other hand formed quite close bonds with other people in the boarding house. I wonder, are day boys so superficial and shallow? I feel so unaware of how people change. The once close friend, YC, is now so distant to me, that I don't even feel comfortable to speak with him about more personal issues. I hv never really felt any sense of appreciation from my friends... it saddens me to think that so much social etiquette can be dispersed just by simple language barriers.
Time flies...
Im in software class ^^ need to go now... |
|
IM FREE! well kinda free... with a 4 page art essay :(
4U... To my surprisement, i think i went pretty well. I thought it would be heaps harder. But that doesn't mean it was already hard enough. There were about 8 marks i lost coz i simply had no idea about how to do them. Weird, coz some of the others didnt get the ones that i got and vice versa... Now all i can hope for is a max mark of 83%.. hehe and if i do make it, then that makes all 3 maths exam in a consecutive series... hahahah get it? series!! haha 82,83,84 where a = 82 d = 1 n = 3...errrr.. forget it.. just a lame joke, coz we're doing induction atm...
Im in a study period atm (free), just finished the physics assignment read to be handed in.. its all good. got Kodsi to check it for me too... and i checked his.. got some more info^^
Im soooo happy now, tonight will be freEEE!!!! YAAAY!!!
Finally! the day has come.. the momentous occasion from which i set out for freedom... errr just ignore that... *note to self* verbosity is stupid *imagines karrnan/haigh lecture!*
As you can see. Im happy =^.^= |

We got maths back!!! 84%... not too bad...
Had 2U Adv Eng today, that was pretty good. It would've probably helped if I learnt the quotes better >_<... Haigh illegaly reminded us that we must compare all the orators we wrote about half way through the exam... hehehe ^^ Apparently Si Yang cheated in eng, as I heard from others in his class, f***ing bastard. He deserved that 49% in 3U, lazy prick.
Had tennis this afternoon again. 1st Coach told me about this crazy extreme western grip i was using. Adopting it, I ended up straining my wrist. Not a good idea... Later when I saw Andreas (my brother's coach) he inspired me with the idea that theoretically theres nothing wrong with the grip I played with. "Have you watched any of the Spanish players before??? Do you know which players have the greatest top spin forehands???" My obvious reply was "No". In fact, he showed me that the greatest top spinners are the Spanish players who use the exact grip I use. A perfectly ok grip to use especially since Hard Courters get killed by it =P. The basics of it is to position the body parallel with the motion of the ball, thrust the hips outwards and turn the body as the follow through guides. Quite effective power achieved ^^
I got my racquet restrung and had new vibration dampener added, plus new grip!!! I've been dieing for one, the racquet almost flew out of my grip today. Here's a pic:

In a free period atm... We just had maths and we got our results. The teacher read out, "Stephen 17/21" for the first section.
..............
Blank pause. *blink* *blink* *stare*
..............
Later whilst he commenced marking the second section it had occured to him that part of my section 1 paper was mixed in with the section 2!!! Suddenly, I found myself overacting, excited, ecstatic... (upon his announcement of course.) Slightly perturbed about it, he said that it would be remarked for next lesson (tmr). DAMN ><
Meh, atleast now Ive got hope for an 80 ^_^

Its raining =( . . . that means no tennis today . . . =(

Stupid 3U maths... I found it pretty easy, except it was so long... or maybe I spent too much time day dreaming. The fact is, it was long, and I didnt even get to write down my answer for the last question, which puts me on a max of 40/45 OMG!!! Im soo annoyed right now about it... It was meant to be easy!! A straightforward test!
Nothing much I can do about it now... *sigh*
There goes the chances of maths prize =P j/k!!! sif that would happen...

Library was fun!!! Hehehe.. I ought to do it more often. Studying is so much more effective than if it were at home. Simply coz theres no one to distract you, unless ofcourse you go with some random person who wont stop bugging you. hehehe, from reading ivans/jeffs blog, it sounds so sad... knocking on each others doors so that they cant study hahaha.. probably coz thats uni life?? i dunno... random...
3U maths tmr T__T... i hope all that study today paid off, coz this thing goes towards HSC! omg HSC!...
Another random fact of the day:
Although meeting ppl on ICQ is random enough, having them actually know other ppl on ur ICQ list in real life is even more random! Comments ppl!! whats the issue with randomness?

I'd like to say, im really tired. Another 3 Sets down the drain. ~uguu~ its not fun to loose the last set all the time. Tennis today really killed my arm... I think I should've taken the weekend off as the physio would've said. By the third set it all came back, my serve went crazy~!! Sux to be Ryan =( went down... 6-0 6-0...
I went down 6-3 4-6 6-2
Yesterday night's LAN was PRODUCTIVE. I managed about 12gbs from Peter, eheheheh... all that music and anime =P and the Berserk PS2 game ^_*. Somehow it felt inappropriate to be LANNING whilst the others were all "partaying" watching American Pie and being random... And in exchange Peter got Pride from me... new J-drama out this year.. Kimura Takuya is in it!!! HES MY IDOL =P http://www.jdorama.com/drama.802.htm I started watching it just then... Those subtitles are pissing me off!!! They're like a translation from a Chinese translated version!! omg its so hard to understand. I need super concentration. They call Halu - "Ching" and Akii - "Yasu".. WTF is that!
Contemplating.. What should/must I endeavour in the coming day dawning the 3u maths exam. I was pondering whether or not the library would be much fun...

School is fun. I have 7 great assessments in the following 2 weeks and they all contribute to this thing called HSC. HSC is fun. HSC is where you learn higher order thinking. It is also the time where you can do as much study as you like. Thats why its fun.
Tommorow - VA Case Study No.2 Due 5%
Monday - 3U maths 10%
Thursday - 2U Adv Eng and Maths 10%
Friday - Physics Assignment 15%
Next Next Monday - SDD 10%
Next Next Friday - 4U maths 10%
Ahh, you gotta love all that work in 2 weeks. May as well call it exam week since its practically the same time as the rest of the school.

My shoulder is sore, and i cant play for the 1sts this weekend... meh oh well, atleast i get more time to myself rather than to spend 5 hrs at some random place playing tennis...
steve had my new raquet restrung.. the tension on the strings feel good, at 57lbs...

Tennis training was shit today.
Firstly, warm up was ok, until i felt this crack and vibration thru my arm, my strings broke (horizontal at the sweetspot). That was gay coz i had to use Steve's (1sts Div Coach) spare raquet... I got scolded for not bringing a spare :(
And so i was stuck with an unfamiliar raquet with crazy tension it was so hard to get power from. The raquet head mustve been a midplus, seeing that I constantly found the shots at the rim..
Secondly, drill exercise for consitency was shit. I made 7/11 unforced errors, that is just shit, considering I was using a more controlled raquet. Argh that pissed me off, made me look like a fool!
At the end of training Steve quoted me on restringing prices. Meh, better than Zammit who had 4 restrings in 2 weeks!!! I got him to do a vertical kevlar and horizontal synthetic gut at 57 pounds. Hopefull the tension wont be too much, otherwise the power to control ratio is gonna be screwed T___T i hate it when i get restrings it feels so weird.

I wonder to myself whether I am known or unknown... Do I have a place to turn to? Who are my friends? And who are my enemies... Its unclear, but I have to find out. Those that I can depend on, those that I think I can depend on and those that are within a wider circle of friends are unclear. Am I not what Im supposed to be? Or do I aspire to be something that I can't be? We are human beings after all and we need the sense of belonging.
I feel for others, yet do others feel for me? Have I flown off to a tangent of this circle? I wonder...
