Many many years ago(ok maybe not so many), there were 3 great swordsmen...
They helped the poor and needy.. fought against evil.. blah blah blah..(basically all the good things lah)..
One fine day, they happen to meet, under a durian tree.. And in the midst of the fallin durians, they became brudders..
There was Amos the Nocturnal Sword.. Always the hardest to find.. He is said to be seen sometimes on the net in the wee hours of the day(an owl they say).. Brimming with knowledge in all fields, he is the eldest of the 3...
Then there was Fabian the Good-Tempered Sword.. Man of kind nature, it is said no one has ever seen him in a bad mood (they also say those who did dun live to tell..)..his strokes are so neat, they compared them to the strokes of a computer.. Also said to have a stomach that's bigger than the universe
And there was Alan the Lucky Sword.. always seen challenging Fabian to a battle of the appetites but has yet to win a single battle.. there have been sightings, that when he goes into battle, Lady Luck herself is seen standing by his side..
A song can be heard in the background (dunno which guy's radio on so loud) as they became the 3 Lonely Swordsmen.... and the song......
It is said that if u're ever in trouble, juz turn and face the West and Shout "I AM CRAZY"..and the Swordsmen will come to ur rescue (u try lor.. no confirm ar..)
and the tales goes on.. about the many deeds the swordsmen did.......

King Edward VII Hall Production
Yo people~ I'm selling tix for my hall production this year. Was hoping if any of you'd be interested. Anyway, the play is actually an adaption from a novel written by CS Lewis (remember chronicals of narnia?) titled 'Till We Have Faces'.
Personally i think it's a great play (I've read the novel myself too) and well... yup i was hoping that any of you might be interested. Maybe you would like to buy as a group so can get seats together...Tix selling at $13 and $15 dollars. Do let me know asap, so i can get the best seats available in the house. Do give me a call or drop me an sms if you got any questions yup? Alternatively, you can place the orders with Jun Kok too (Jun Kok, i think you will need to sell it too ya? :p )
Here are the details from my hall webbie:
HALLPLAY
Date: 1st, 2nd February 2008
Venue: University Cultural Centre
Fresh from last year’s stunning success, Hallplay is back once! From the same team that brought you “Letters from the Front Line”, they now present a story based on C.S. Lewis' interpretation of the original classical myth of Cupid and Psyche as written in Lucius Apuleius's 2nd century novel, The Golden Ass, Till We Have Faces. It tells the story of two princesses, the divinely beautiful Psyche, and the hideously ugly Orual. Orual, who loves Pysche so obsessively that it becomes possessive and harmful, finds to her dismay that Cupid, the God of Love himself, has taken Psyche away to be his wife, setting the troubled and embittered Orual on a path of moral development and self-discovery. A first rate production at any rate, fasten your seat belt for this upcoming smash hit!
Thanks a bunch! Do support Jun Kok and I!

这里好安静啊! 好像已经没人到这里来了,作者或读者好像通通都消失了。
近月日子仿佛引擎加了turbo, 过的好快啊。 不愉快的日子好像特别的多,感情和学业上,我好像都有欠佳的成绩。一向任为自己运气很好的我,已经开始怀疑好运是否已离我而去。
似乎过了21岁的生日后, 我的运势是越来越遭。 还好我有一群好友,日子也因为了他们,没那么的难度过。
PIC II 也圆满地结束了, 希望有参加的人都骑地开心。
看了好几部电影, 都还不错, 但是我也发现口袋里的钱是寥寥无几了。
音乐和食物还是我生命里的主旋律。
“相要写一首简单的歌给你,让你知道你最珍贵, 和世界唯一的你,过着天使嫉妒的生活。手牵手去看彩虹,看那最长的电影。我会发着呆,然后忘记你,开着车一路向北,怒力的离开这爱情悬崖. "

3 hours of sleep + 1 hour of soccer.....
Its been quite a long while since anyone posted anything here. I wonder if there are still people reading this little online space.
Got back my first mid-term test for my English Language Mod. 23/30. Seems to be a rather ok score until I found out that there are quite abit of people scoring better than that. Full marks are recorded as well. God knows which part of the bell curve I am in.
Had another mid-term last thursday. My South Asian Studies Mod. Its a strange feeling that when I look at my lecture notes, I more or less know everything there, but if you come up to me and ask me what I have studied, I can't say alot. Well there were 3 questions in the test. 2 short answer and 1 essay. Just as we were about to start the paper, the lectuerer suddenly just brought up that the SHORT answer should be about a page long, though not more than 2 page. And the essay? About 4 pages. So much for short answer, guess i should not have assumed that the short answer would be one two lines.
I kind of completed the paper but have no idea at all how I will fare. If I can just score a good grade........
Projects datelines are so near now. And I have only done the outline to my Political Science essay with all my readings behind time. Just to top it off I am falling sick thanks to my consistent lack of rest and unhealthy lifestyle.
Well, I am sure I am NOT the least bothered as well right er ge?
Alan
PS I am actually going back to WORK on Friday.

For without which...
San di, I just learnt a new latin phrase after you showed me the word "qua".
So I'd like to say,
Family,
Friends,

School,
are the sine qua non
of Amos.
See ya.

Hmm... How about we open it up to an application. Haha... As if we were some really big organization. Anyway, life is still good here in NUS. Just that i can't seem to understand the lectures. Hall life is fun too, going for late night suppers and stuff. Hope everybody is having a good time too.
By the way, the tagboard doesn't seem to be working. Anybody else has problems with it?

nOw ReCrUiTiNg??
2 days into lectures.
I went through the CNM lecture on Monday. It was more like a introduction to the lecturers and stuff like that. Had EL lecture this morning, where much was taught but I seriously doubt the amount of knowledge which my rusty brain was able to absorb. Tomorrow will be my first lecture for SE, which I heard was not exactly the easiest module to score. And as if that was not bad enough, I seem to be the only freak taking both SE (Southeast Asian Studies) and SN (South Asian Studies) in this semester. Amidst all this not-so-nice news, there was a piece of news which was not exactly all that bad: My NM Final Exam is MCQ. Though I am beginning to consider if perhaps open-ended questions might have made things easier for me.
Arts Bash is this Saturday but chances are I will not be going.
Recruitment Drive for The Lonely Swordsmen Clan? I thought this is on invitational basis only? Well, just make sure the new guy is straight and is worthy to be one of us.

tHe jOuRnEy bEgIns....
Its been quite awhile since I last blogged.
Tomorrow is the start of the lessons proper, though there are still no tutorials for this week.
O Week was great.. Though I was not there for 100% of the time, I still enjoyed O Week. I got to know alot of friends during this O Week, and I think that is the important thing for an orientation. Like what the house ICs always say: At the end of the day, what is important for this orientation, is not about winning, its about getting to know people, who will be the ones to go through the 3/4 years in NUS, so that you do not go to lectures all alone, or eat lunch alone. And I think this makes perfect sense to me.
Bidding was something new to everyone of us. The total freedom of choice of modules to bid for makes it all the more tougher for me to decide and choose the modules which I want to take in this first semester. In the end, I settled for 5 modules all from FASS. I shall not bore people by listing my modules one by one.
I managed to watch quite a few movies recently. The Simpsons was good. Though some may find it a little coarse, but what do you expect from the Simpsons? Then there was Jay's Secret. I actually find it quite good. The script was quite well done and Jay was fine in the movie. I watched Rushed Hour 3 with my OG people as well. Jackie and Chris are hilarious as usual.
Hope everyone is doing fine.
Brudders, going for Gary's birthday?
And so, the journey begins......

Don't Feed The Monkeys
Somehow, blogger seems quite messed up recently. My blog is down. The posting interface is really weird. That's not very good yes?
Anyway, Been low on spending power lately. Due to the recent 21st birthday celebrations. Something unexpected when i decided to take a HUGE break this year. Kind of a wrong move.
Anyway, i think good movies are on their way. Spiderman 3 was good, and then there's a show with a Singapore Pirate... and stuff like that.
Looking forward to a g8 year my brudders!!
