the day started with having an electronics communications tutorial which i was late fot like 10 min. and it was a different tutor other than the lousy one who doesnt encourage learning. but his guy's equally horrible. he just explains everything haphazardly and totally kills the joy of learning.

after the movie, played a few rounds of slient scope at the video arcade and headed down for ushering duty for the eternity production at elim church. i arrived later than instructed because i was kinda carried awaygorblocknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159715.post-1090844311280336092004-07-26T20:17:00.000+08:002004-07-26T20:18:31.280+08:00i lost my wallet.. bummer right? what can i say? i am super duper ultra pissed.
as i boarded bus number 159, i took out my ez-link card from my wallet and scanned it. slipped it into my left pocket. got to the single seat near the door, placed my bag on my lap with my wallet on the top of it. listening to "Dreams" all the way till i reached school.. as i alighted from the bus, i forgot all aboutgorblocknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159715.post-1090765190184476252004-07-25T22:13:00.000+08:002004-07-25T22:19:50.183+08:00i am just addicted to the new Diana DeGarmo song, "Dreams". The moment i downloaded the song from Kazaa on friday night, i've been listening to it non-stop. and Jason Oon cant find the song online. But he went to buy the CD single which only has 3 songs and costs 16 bucks. crazy price..i'll just wait for the album.
