Not your business

"Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or gazelle - when the sun comes up, you'd better be running."

DAY ONE OF NEW DIET!


decides to start blogging again because i feel that like my life's a little fked up.
so probably needa keep a review of myself to keep myself in check haha


ok i am now in the middle of my JC 2 prelim and everything kind of sucks so i rather not talk about it. but just want to say i've been getting fatter so decided to start a new diet which my friend suggested, that comprises mainly of protein and less of carbohydrates. i am weighing 74kg now, hope it works!


so went to the supermarket to get started with what i am going to eat for the next two days. i will probably continue if it feels good! bye bye white rice, hello red beans and tuna!




The only person who can tell you "you can't"
is you yourself,
and you do not need to listen to it.

yes i am back to blogging. hahas.
okay life's good. hahas. picked up
poker recently. hahas. did my cycling
component training today. hahas.
cycled about 8.6km and saw quite a lot of
MJ people along the route. hahas.


and tomorrow will be another day burnt because
of YOG. hahas. 8-5. dont think can really do work
then. hahas. rachel came to my house today and
watched Bounty Hunter together. hahas. the show

okay currently i am not satisfied with myself and
i think i can do better in everything!


You cannot dream yourself into a character:
you must hammer and forge yourself into one.

TAGBACKS;
[rachel] hahahahas. =D


just back from swimming. hahas. swam 20 laps but
wasn't feeling too good this morning so didn't
really swim as good as usual. hahas. and yes,
ncc spec course finally ended yesterday. hahas.
nothing much to say about it because honestly
nowadays de spec course is a waste of time and
quite slack compared to my time. hahas.


and i've decided that i will sign up for HP TRI-Athlon
if my MRI results is good. hahas. it's a sprint larh,
so not really the olympic kind of distance. it's
750m swim, 20km bike and 5km run so should be okay
for me larh. hahas. the only problem is i need to
get a bike soon because it's in october. hahas.
okays gonna eat lunch now. having cheerleading
outing later. hope downtown wont flood like what happened
to orchard yesterday. hahahas.


You are the sun in my day,
the wind in my sky,
the waves in my ocean,
and the beat in my heart.

hahas. just back from my MRI scan and dinner.
woke up around 5 plus for the second day of ncc
spec course. today's training was held outside HQ
at Singapore Army Museum, Singapore Discovery Centre
and SAFTI MI. hahas. so my first station was the army
musuem so me and another two guys from west district
just woke around on our own in the musuem. hahas. went to
try out the SAR21 IMT and went for some mini 4D show
on SAF trainings. hahas. seriously SAF is imba. hahas.
and the trainings are just awesome. hahas. and that's what
inspire me to join the commandos SOF.


left around 11am because i need to go home and rest as i
cant eat and drink for 8 hours before the scan. the MRI scan
was quite cool. they put you in a very narrow tunnel-like
thingy for around 20mins. the results will only be out 2
weeks later. hahas. once the results are positive, wah i
will chiong already ah. hahas.


shall post some pictures on the YOG grooming session that
i attended last saturday. seriously i think it was a waste
of time because you woke up at 6am, travelled all the way to
kent ridge, then did some stuffs which you knew. what we did
was actually taught us how to style hair, how to wash face,
and how to stand up straight. hahas. end of story. i must
admit in this world a lot of stuffs are like idiot proof
but honestly i respect those whom put in effort for this
behind the scene. tomorrow's last day of spec course. hahas.
can't wait to have some time for myself. oh ya, you can
see the two guys sleeping on the floor in the next picture,
and one of them is me. haahs. because too tired larh.










I will strive
For Honour
and Glory.

TAGBACKS;
[Alan] hahas. ncc is my life larh. enjoy what you do and you'll find time inside! hahas.
[debra] yeah i finally got it updated! hahas. yeah but too busy already. hahas. how're you!


just back from NCC East & West Phase 3 Spec
Course. hahas. not bad larh, today's all the tests.
so tomorrow and wednesday will be quite slack already.
hahas. and i got a post of APC, which is Assistant
Platoon Commander. not bad already larh for a newbie
like me. hahas. cause the other PC & APC is Cadet Lieutenant.
and guess what, my the other APC is Helmi, whom is the
guy whom taught me and took me when i was having
specialist course two years ago. hahas. fate sia.
actually i was afraid of being an APC at first cause
i have to work with people i am not really that close
and they are like old birds sia. what if i make a
mistake. hahas. but not bad larh, both of them quite kind
to me and gave me chance to take the platoon, and i
feel just like a PC! hahas. actually why i want to
go ncc course other than for promotion is that
because ncc taught me too much already. and it's
time i give back some. hahas.


ahhhhh tomorrow have to report at army museum by 7.15am.
hahas. but lucky i leaving at 11am for my MRI scan, which
i cant eat and drink for 8 hours in advance so i need to
go home and rest. hahas. actually i don't know why, but
i just really enjoy wearing the ncc uniform. hahas. and
it's good doing something you enjoy.




Sunday, June 13, 2010


okay okay i'm gonna book in in like
1 and a half hour time. hahas. actually
abit sian ah. went to see a doctor in the
morning cause i'm like coughing for two
weeks already. hahas. then went for a swim,
complete 20 laps in around 30 minutes. i
got the stamina but my hands are not strong enough.
hahas. honestly i think i've recovered but
still needa go through a MRI scan to confirm.
still remember my body broke down when i was
at the peak of my running career. hahas. i could
reach 21km in less than 2 hours. but now i
needa start from scratch again but honestly i
don't mind because i won't make the same mistakes
again. hahas. i aim to beat mok ying ren but for
now, i hope to break the maz meridian record for
2.4km first. hahas. and my target, 7mins.


At the top of the world,
you have only yourself
to beat.




Friday, June 11, 2010


ok i am just back from ncc BBQ. hahas.
actually nothing much, everyone looks the
same except wilfred's hair got curlier. hahas.
so woke up today, went for PDS training from 8am-2pm,
then lunched at 85 and went home and sleep. hahas.
then went for a jog, completed 6km in 34mins. hahas.
the feeling is back already. will slowly increase the
mileage and soon i will be running intervals again. hahas.
now my goal is to at least get into top 10 for the NUS run
2010 but i havent sign up sia. dont know registration close
already not. hahas.


ahhhhh i want to study but no time ah. this holidays like so
busy ah. almost every week i got one camp. today NCC, tomorrow
YOG, sunday night need to book in, then next mon to wed is ncc east
and west phase 3 spec course. i think esther lai will be meeting
me again soon ah. hahas. GG ah.


yays the good thing is just came back from Leadership Training Camp
two days. i dont know why i got no mood to post ah, maybe because
i have to wake up at 5.45am tomorrow. hahas. but LTC was fun, made
many many awesome friends. didn't really expect it to be so good
because i was expecting to sleep in tents and do things like OBS but
we got to sleep in air-conditioned chalets with toilet attached ah.
IMBA sia. hahas. learn a lot a lot of new skills which ncc didn't
taught me and now i dare to say, I AM MORE CONFIDENT! hahas.


now my personal goals or rather i would like to do is be a more enthu
house captain and ensure i lead my house comm with a shared vision
because it took me one year to realise how come my batch ncc didn't turn
out so well even though we are like one of the strongest batch is that
we didn't have a shared vision. so, i won't make the same mistake again.
hahas. for ncc, i hope to help the juniors to establish a good foundation
for AHSNCC as a PDS school. hahas. i hope one day AHSNCC can be the best
PDS school in singapore.


but for now, i gotta sleep first.




















I M B A!
IMBA IMBA ALL THE WAY!




Sunday, June 06, 2010


just back from playing some bball downstair. hahas.
okays today was just a normal day. woke up, went to
cut my hair, then went to fetch rachel and went back
to my house. hahas. then i went for a run about 5km,
then went to play bball. hahas. ah i can't wait to run
back long distance but need to slowly start from scratch.


oh biz club bbq on friday night was fun. hahas. at first
i reached there about 6 plus then a few of us decided to
play soccer with some strangers. hahas. then after went
back to bbq and we realise we can't start the fire. hahas.
but lucky i ate before i went. then just bbq, talk cock,
play cards all the way till 10 plus then went home. walked
home with si jie and two other J2s then we started talking
about the mayan calendar then i found out it's actually
quite interesting. hahas. i'm beginning to find biz club
quite fun actually, although initially i joined house comm
to quit biz club. hahas. shall post some pictures.














and Leadership Training Camp is tomorrow. hahas. we gonna
go to Kota Tingi in M'sia. and i've prepared for the worst
case senario such as lousy living conditions. hahas.
hope it'll be fun.


Love makes the time pass. Time makes love pass.




Friday, June 04, 2010


Yeah just back from LTC briefing. hahas.
gonna go for some MJC leadership training camp
next mon-wed. didn't go to school today i went
for physiotherapy. and guess what, i'm discharged!
hahas. so now the key factor is the MRI scan. if
it's fine so means i'm fine already. hahas. after
having the pain for like almost 1 year already.


went for a swim in the morning. hahas. swam 20 laps
in less than an hour, including stopping time. i guess
now i have to get used to constant swimming with stopping
because i can't stop in the middle of the sea during a
biathlon.


gonna go for biz club bbq later. hahas. hope it doesn't rain.


You can try and fail
but dont fail to try.

TAGBACKS;
[hi] don't know larh. hahas. i just restarted posting mah. (:


yo everyone! i am just back from my 4D3N
NUS Business Championship 2010! hahas. i went
with MJC Biz Club larh. what's this is actually
1) go there make new friends
2) go there learn more about business subjects in NUS
3) solve a business case to win


hahas. my team was si jie (my fellow joker and gangster),
charmaine and liwei. hahas. we didn't win larh. because
it was really very competitive with other top JCs in
Singapore eg RJC, ACS(I)JC, HCJC, VJC sending all their
top people from their school whereas MJC is just anyhow
send the first come first serve basis people. although we
didn't win, we really had fun and now i'm more keen into
getting into uni because i think i will love uni life. hahas.


hahas. if you were to ask me, got any chio bus at the camp,
the answer is no larh. hahas. actually the camp was an
eye-opener because we went to visit SIA Training Centre
for new air steward and air stewardess. so the eye-opener
thing was that we got see stimulators of the first class
seats in SIA as well as 'The Suite' (cost $24,000 per ticket)
of the Airbus A380! so what we did is we spent 36 hours
(include sleeping time, bathing time, slacking time) staring
at a lap top each and trying to identify the key issues that
SIA is facing today and possible strategies to adopt. this
is much much tougher than PW because you need to have statistics
behind each point you make and those statistics can take up
to hours to collate from the net as you need to identify
the sources that speak the truth. hahas. i admit i'm no expert,
but at least i agar know what business sch in NUS study so i might
take up business in the future. hahas.


seriously i will admit that it was an eye-opener because
1) you get to stay in NUS hostel
2) maybe next time no chance go NUS
3) get to visit SIA Training Centre (restricted to public)
4) learn more about business strategies
5) meet new friends
6) get to wear MJ blazer
7) get to know how uni life is like


so i didn't regret larh. hahas. but now need to catch up a lot
because i missed 4 days of school and i'm gonna miss school
again tomorrow because of physio therapy. and tomorrow's a busy day!
1) 20 laps of swimming @ 8.00am
2) physiotherapy @ 9.30am
3) Biz Club CCA @ 12.30pm-1.30pm
4) LTC Briefing @ 2.30pm - ?
4) Biz Club BBQ @ after LTC briefing


and for the next 2 weeks, i have like 1 3D2N camp per week so i'm
gonna die. hahas. actually i think i'm hardworking, but i just
needa have better time management and make more time for myself
to breathe. hahas. can't wait to run back my 10km! starting to run
already, and can't wait to make it for a biathlon this year! but
sadly there isn't any locally. hahas. i intend to focus on 10km runs
first and make them below 1 hour before AHM or SCM!












MJC Biz Club




Friday, May 28, 2010


yes first day of holiday is here! hahas.
went to watch shrek forever after with rachel
in the morning. then just went home and slack the
the way away. hahas. i think i needa start working
hard soon. been so busy this few days. hahas.
cheerleading finally came to end! i not really sad
that it ended but also not really happy because it
ended. i don't know why the way i treat things now
it's like a 'dream'. i've been feeling neutral about
almost everything. hahas. but still kudos to the
Miranda 7th House Comm for all their hard work now!
and it's now our turn. hahas. shall post some
cheerleading pictures.












oh and shall post some pictures about the Weightlifting
Validation Exercise last week! the experience is awesome,
because you get to see really cool things and work with
people from all ages. hahas. can't wait for the actual
YOG to start.












ah i'm gonna go for my Biz Club competition
at NUS from next mon to thur. hahas. i wonder how're
the other schools like but it's like we win something
for MJ. (;


Run till you got
nothing left.




Tuesday, May 25, 2010


hi i am just back from cheerleading.
you know i have been wondering this for a long time,
will i be a good house captain? or should i even choose
to be a house comm member since the start? is this
really meant for me? i am not regretting but i don't know
if i am up to the task. to me, a good house captain can
rara the crowd, he have the initiatives but somehow there
is this obstacle or barrier in me that i can't cross.
i lost all the confidence i used to have. i've become
quiet again, i don't know what to do, i don't know what
to speak. there are so much people out there better than me.


once my motto for life was to live the best out of everything,
and i told myself i want to be the best until the very last moment.
but somehow i lost the motivation to work harder. maybe because
as you grow older you began to realise the reality. I don't know
what to do, someone please encourage me.


"Yi Jun, running is your stage. I thought you always wanted to
perform here?"


Someone once told me this and I told myself i will be the best
runner in Singapore but I know this will never come true.


A bird without wings can
never fly.




Monday, May 24, 2010


ah i am so tired. hahahas.
so went to school today, left half-way
to Changi General Hospital for my medical appt.
So finally the doctor have arranged me to go on
a MRI scan on 15 Jun.


had cheerleading today. cheerleading is awesome.
hahas. the spirit is sky high man. i am just so tired.
i need a nap now. and i'm gonna submit my ncc
promotion form tomorrow. hahas.


SO TIRED.






I once decided that I shouldn't blog until i
am able to run back my 10km but i guess i should
blog because i always use my blog as a reflection
of myself. hahas. currently my life's screwed.
too much things to do in too little time. hahas.


oh currently i am in MJC, and i am dying. hahas.
i think if i don;t start to work hard i will really
get kicked out. even the principal had talked to me.
hahas. and my back's fine now, i mean not really but
the doc guess it's a slip disc and i am gonna do the MRI
scan tomorrow i guess. hahas. hope i can get better.


spent my weekends being a YOG flagbearer,
currently they're having Weightlifting, Singapore Open,
something like a rehearsal for us before the actual YOG.
It was an eye-opener, especially when cheryl is the
commentator. hahahas.


now my goals are:
1) Be a good captain
2) Get top for everything in my class
3) Be the fastest runner in MJ
4) Do the most pull-ups in MJ


i wanna do all these because,
that's how i used to be,
and i want to continue it.

went with jia rong to tampines swimming
complex today to swim. same same. swam
40 laps (l lap=1 end to the other) of
freestyle. saw wen yong they all. then went
to west plaza and eat with jia rong before
heading home for some rest. rest awhile alrd
then go zena's house to play mahjong with
jia rong, geraldine, zena and jia yi. hahas.
not bad larh. jia rong kept winning. hahas.
the girls won a lot at the start after when
we started winning they become kanasai alrd.
hahas. then went to play basketball near
jia rong's house with the same people. then
after that alan and another guy came, forgotten
how to spell his name. hahas. not bad ah,
although alan looks quite skinning and frail
but he quite fast and jump quite high in bball.
then jolene and kimberly came to discuss
what 6A outing. talked damn long but most
of the time=talk cock. hahas.
so basically that's what i did today. hahas.


31 Dec 09 - 01 Jan 10
went for specialist checkup on 31 Dec 09's morning,
now have to go for physiotherapy, then if my back
still not ok have to go for MRI scan. hahas. then
at night went to rachel house to countdown. rachel's
sister's friends also came. hahas. played awhile dai di
and mahjong then went to countdown alrd. hahas.
countdown in front of the tv. hahas. then went to
sleep in rachel's study room. hahas. next morning woke up,
went to swim at her house swimming pool, then went home
and sleep some more. hahas. so this point of time i'm
in 01 Jan 10 alrd ah. hahas. then at night went to eat
with rachel's family at some chinese restaurant at
century square, then went to watch Bodyguards and Assassins
with them at Ehub. hahas. so that's what i did for
my new year's eve and new year day. hahas.


some days ago... ...
forgotten which day was this but went to fly
kite with rachel near pasir ris park after getting
my free Subway bike that i won in some crap event.
hahas. i swear the next time when i go fly kite,
i will make sure my string is at least 1 km long.
hahahas. if not the short ones all no fun one.
oh ya, i think on the same day rachel and i went
to play arcade bball and i think we got quite a good
score. hahas.
































Christmas Day!
alright, spent christmas with rachel. hahas.
met her in the afternoon and went to her mother's
church in the evening. then went to her house
for dinner. hahas. she got two cousins whom
are quite cute. hahas. and rachel got me a
goofy soft toy for chirstmas. hahas.


i guess that's all bah. results coming out soon.
most of the people i know are hoping to hit mjc.
hahas. if we all get in i won't mind larh. cause
i guess having fun will be the only thing that attracts
me in jc. hahas.


It's easy to fall in love.
The hard part is finding someone to catch you.
