blogging is for gals

Woah, my oh my... how time flies indeed! It's been a last year since i last blogged outta sheer boredom in MHA. I must admit that i do enjoy reading my previous posts tho, but i kinda grimaced reading the previous post cause it was wayyyyyyyyy too emo. Also, when my guy friends tell me blogging is sissy, i think of any number of whiny blogs by lovestruck/bored/prepubescent females(or the previous post i made for that matter) and feel hard pressed to object. LoL. But then again.. a guy cant act tough forever and upon reading valiant's blog with much interest i've decided to once again put my keyboard to some typing!

On a more serious note, it's really cool that i'm about to embark on my varsity studies now, and tho i'm still abit sian that smu dosent have hostels and thus hall life, im determined to do as well and have as much fun as i possibly can within my years in the city campus. So far things seem to be on the up. Sports camp provided me a opportunity to make a couple of friends whom i hope to stay in close contact and work with in school later on. The things i hear from the seniors are inspiring and though i feel slightly daunted by the competition i will have to face in order to do well, i find that im mostly challenged rather then afraid. The sheer scope of CCAs that i can join are staggering and i find i am spoilt for choice on which to participate in. Hopefully i'd make the soccer team and alot of pondering can be resolved then and then. I'd also like to take up a non-physical cca that would be both meaningful and enjoyable. Its damned frustrating that it seems that the CCAs id have to pick up to spiff up my resumes also happen to be those that i don't really feel inclined towards la. Floorball and rugby also seem rather enticing and i'd suspect i would enjoy ultimate frisbee as well. lol
Studies wise, i think i'd show alil faith in myself(yes yes.. call me overconfident if u think that's more accurate) and aim high. With god's grace i hope to maintain a 3.7-3.8 gpa thruout my 4 years in uni. I realise that it definately would be hard to do and given my predisposition towards working hard, its gonna be an uphill task. I realise that i've been opening condescending about mugging your life away, but i figure that slacking and doing above averagely is cool only if you're in secondary 3. When i think about what i'd be remembered as if i died now (aka the 'smart la... but damn bloody lazy' guy) i realise that its a tag that i really don't want. I wanna be remembered as the fella who was kinda laidback but did his best whatever his endeavours were. I figure that god didnt put me here so i could bum and waste my life away, but rather expect me to put whatever ability i have to good use. well..... as i said, it will definately be hard to accomplish what i set out for myself but i figure that i'd trust god to sustain me and give me strength when my own flags and favers.
Okkkkk, Before i start sounding holier then thou. let me move on to other things... like arsenal's loss to barce in the champion league finals last season. altho i definately didnt like the way we won the freekick which led to the opening goal(stop diving dickheads) i must say that i've never been so proud to say that i support arsenal.its doubtless that barce had a greater wealth of talent avaliable to them... but the way arsenal fought and played for each other was something that i really appreciated and admired. truely i felt the players gave their best and u really cant ask for more then that eh? cmon boys! outdo yourselves this season man.

well, im getting tired of typing already la... so i guess id stop right here. hoepfully i'd be back with updates of goodnews in the near future man.


ps: watch nacho libre ;)
