[RICHMOND] – i am half-dead & half-asleep now,so no use telling me anything now for i will just say ‘yes’ to everything. says: (8:27:53 PM)
u monday going sch
oh joy. last day of the year in school.
yesterday’s bowling game had a little christmas twist to it. well, read on and you’ll get what i mean.
we played 11 games in total over 4hours, crazy huh? but true! i’ll show you proof.
we stuck to the same plan: loser pays. but this time, we agreed that the loser of the 2nd game would have to pay for the warm-up game. which means, having to pay $13.20. guess who lost? (:
photos!
warm-up game scores
and i didn’t have to buy a turkey for christmas!
TURKEYYYY!
warm up game scores
richmond [r] – 67
jonald [j] – 77
shaun [s] – 150
and then…it was time. for the match.
i was kinda at risk of paying $13.20 during the second match. i’ve got no idea why i played so badly as compared to my first game. the picture of scores is below. if you actually analyse it properly, i was trailing jonald and richmond on the 9th frame.
which was kinda scary cause i didn’t have money to pay for so many games. (not that i’m arrogant that i wouldn’t lose or anything – just that i forgot to bring extra)
i was rejoicing when i scored a spare on the 10th frame. HOW LUCKY WAS I? hahaha
2nd match scores:
r – 87 (HAS TO PAY $13.20!)
j – 88
s – 91
we than changed lanes so that we could play cross-lanes and yeah, we totally had more fun.
what began as a battle between jonald and richmond ended up as a battle between richmond and me. check out the scores below:
3rd match scores:
r – 94 (DID NOT LOSE!!)
j – 68
s – 95
jonald’s lost again in the 4th game:
4th match scores:
r – 98
j – 81
s – 143
by the 5th game, jonald’s losses were inevitable. keep in mind that loser has to pay!
5th match scores:
r – 88
j – 82
s – 122
and richmond was damn happy he didn’t have to pay for anything yet since we changed lanes.
the 6th game didn’t have a winner!
it was getting obvious that richmond was already an obvious threat.
6th game scores:
r- 123
j- 108
s- 123
jonald still lost despite having a 100 over point pinfall.
and jonald’s losing streak didn’t end. the “curse” continued even up to the 7th game!
7th game match scores:
r- 102
j- 108
s- 119
by now, jonald had to retire from the match. he was losing far too much and he couldn’t carry on further. thus…it was an official battle between me and richmond. it was a 1on1 match situation with a surprising twist at the end
8th game scores:
s-122
r-89 (FINALLY HAS TO PAY LOLOL)
i put everything i had in me into the 9th game to show that it didn’t end there.
9th game scores:
s- 141
r- 128 (HEHE I MADE HIM PAY. MWAHAHAH)
the 10th game scores were not recorded due to a human error between me and richmond. despite the fact, i still won. (: no picture was taken due to point calculation inaccuracy.
THE FINAL SHOWDOWN.
the 11th game.
by now, richmond and i were both dead tired. we were throwing throws so lousy that when richmond tired to study my pattern, he just couldn’t see any.
however. i lost. finally. the day had finally come. the day that richmond was waiting for. a 5point defeat over me. he was rejoicing like crazy cause i had to finally pay. but heh, it was a fun day!
9 victories…1 tie game and 1 loss! not too bad (:
unfortunately…i can’t say the same for jonald. >< haha.
i saved the best for last, so richmond. DONT COMPLAIN! and i'm not a sore loser -.-
till next time!
friends are there when you need them. they keep your mind from running wild. and that’s why i don’t mind spending time with them.
true friends forgive and forget.
and right now, i’m not being unreasonable. you are.

I WANT MY BREATHING SPACE.
[RICHMOND] – shaunie , i think even before we give you breathing space you alr drop dead. says: (10:24:47 PM)

pretty encouraging of richmond eh?
2007 has been a year filled with mixed feelings from all over – work, school and even family. fortunately (or unfortunately for some), it’ll be over in 8 days or so.
and as i think back of the list of events i’ve attended or organised and the work stuffs i’ve done, have i achieved anything purposeful for my future. well, right now: who cares? here’s 20 over photos taken this year!
it’s gonna take forever to load. yipee.
AND NOT IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER, here’s the first picture!
2007 started in a nice way because of this:
EDUSAVE SCHOLARSHIP YOO.
oh wait. i can’t forget the fireworks launched on the first few minutes of 2007:
fireworks @ marina bay.
then came this:
still don’t know where it went till this day.
THEN CAME THE YOUTH LEADER TRAINING!
did the SWOT review with rudy. boy was it challenging. and i had loads of fun presenting our weaknesses and strengths.
inside our campus
broke my pair of glasses before chem class. the reason is stupid. i’m not gonna tell you here. (i didn’t forget it – i just wanna hide my shame)
during physics class
it’s always keeran and his goods
prevented him from taking a successful shot! i feel so damn happy. right now. weird eh?
during CLB Class – now you know why i flunked CLB right?
i’m not done with CLB class yet. ><
okay now i am.
oh and, here's jimmy studying:
haha. is he posing for the camera or not? i don’t know.

i swear, the express students did this
okay that’s pretty much inside campus.
some random shots:
and that’s me during my cycling trip with richmond!
can’t forget the clicker during the ngee ann poly accounting quiz! 
(i was trying to kill the batteries on this thing – failed miserably)

well, there are more photos, but i’ll see to it if i wanna do a part 2 to this blog post.
i would like to thank all of my friends, relatives and others that i’ve excluded, including COLLEAGUES! for all the fun time we had in 2007. i look forward to MORE fun and excitement in 2008!
i can’t wait.
until next time,
and trash richmond in bowling.
i was spamming like a crazy idiot on richmond’s friendster profile about who would probably win today’s bowling showdown. on our previous showdown, i won richmond by a landslide (see below for the report)
today. richmond made history. (and i did too!)
i only paid $4.40 for a total of 6 games. you’ll see why later. (cheap huh?)
well…before i carry on: NO, the bowling alley wasn’t having any crazy promotions or anything.
we stuck to the same deal: loser would pay for the winner and runner-up’s games. in other words, the person with the lowest pinfalls would need to pay $4.40 per round for the winner and runner-up.
and guess who lost like mad? i’ll let the photos do the talking.
warm-up round (each person to pay his own game):
(from far)
close-up
richmond’s score
WARM-UP ROUND SCORES:
shaun: 83 pinfalls
jonald: 82 pinfalls
richmond: 61 pinfalls
it got really interesting after the warm-up round. check out the scores:
match scores:
shaun: 90
jonald: 84
richmond: 76 (needs to pay!)
match scores:
shaun: 95
jonald: 85
richmond: 80 (needs to pay again!)
scores:
s: 122
j: 100
r: 65
me after scoring a strike! (:
double strikes brought my score up!
richmond posing for the camera: the finishing position
we had a little warm-up session for the last game for the day. and guess what? RICHMOND LOST AGAIN. hahahahhahaha.
i didn’t take any photos of the warm-up game. so let’s proceed to the final game!
FINAL MATCH SCORE:
s: 119
j: 76 (NEEDS TO PAY!)
r: 77 (RICHMOND ACTUALLY DIDN’T LOSE!)
by taking jonald out by 1pin, richmond managed to save $4.40!
infact, he was made to pay a total of 8+6 games. x$2.20 and you’d get an idea of how much he paid.
i had a great time today. life would be super boring without richmond and jonald. (:
anyway. checkout my mousepad:
it finally spells my name on it. (:
i can’t wait to play badminton with richmond and hopefully, george danapal.
till next time,
