你今天可以打败我，可是，我还有明天的我。

但我不会让你过得了今天的我这一关。

我要咬紧牙关。

[[ At a conference last year, ex-principal of The Chinese High School Mr Tooh Fee San publicly requested current principal of Dunman High School Mr Sng Chern Wei to “加把劲”，给华中一点压力，“让华中不断提升，创造双赢的局面”。

To which Mr Sng, the principal I truly admire, replied：“北京奥运会前，我去中国，看到一个很大的广告牌。画面是一个非洲籍的短跑选手，上面写着英文标语。我对这个广告标语为什么用英文写，感到奇怪。在中国看到的英文广告，通常错别字蛮多，但是那个没有。那个广告标语说“The person to beat is not the one in front but the one inside.”“要超越的人不在前面，而是在里面”。这正是德明办学的理念。如果有一天，我们真的超越华中，那是我们努力的结果，但不是我们努力的目的。身为德明校长，我认为学校不需要越办越大，越办越堂皇，可是必须越办越好，越办越温馨，越办越像一个家。”德明加油！]]

牵手

2009-04-19T21:06:00.002+08:00

"牵手"这字眼，
会让你想起哪首歌？

是。。。

张惠妹热情豪放的get high 之歌 - 牵手？

创作歌手吴克群感性示爱情歌 - 牵牵牵手？

是2003抗SARS群星大合唱的 手牵手？

还是甜蜜可爱，歌颂友谊的 手牵手， by 米儿丝？
（谁来的，我也不知道）

抑或是。。。
耐人寻味、荡气回肠、扣人心弦、勾起当年令你深受感动的回忆，
久违的苏芮 - 牵手。

所以牵了手的手，来生还要一起走。

所以有了伴的路，没有岁月可回头。

emo 你头，酱有意思的歌词，再铁石心肠之君也会动容。

且拿来分享。

Good week ahead, enjoy!

about "the devil wears prada"

2009-04-12T21:49:00.003+08:00

this is like 5 minutes before i book in back camp for the week
but i jus wanted to do a post after watchin this movie on 5.

movies usually present the 2 extremes of reality,
either too ideal to be true or too ridiculous to be happening in the real world.

however, the daunting difficulties Andrea (Anne Hathaway) had to deal with as the personal assistant of Runway CEO Miranda (Meryl Streep) would probably bring some inkling to some of us who had to face absurd requests from our bosses, complaints from men, unreasonable working partners, or simply tasks that stream in every day incessantly, usually leaving us clueless as to how to start about doing it, or whether there'll even be an end in them.

yet she accomplished it,
first step of course being the most difficult to take,
and the subsequent challenges apparently are so determined to make Andrea quit at the first instant.

this is drawing such a starking parallel to what im currently facing as the logistics executive of a certain company right now. the managers of other departments obviously do not know the constraints we logisticians are facing, putting up requests with the presumptions that we would definitely be able to meet their demand, and with the "confidence" that we would get it ready on time given such a short reaction time.

last thursday was quite nightmarish. fortunately a silver lining appeared, only then can i go for the long weekend that just passed with a relieved mind.
before i dismissed the subordinates, i told them clearly:
"as logisticians, be prepared, expect the unexpected and the unreasonable. you are gonna face even more evil and cruel stuff out there."

and watching "the devil wears prada" further ingrained into me the professionalism i have to exhibit in my daily jobscope despite the impossibilities i have to embrace each day.

so to all those facing impossibilities each day (and that practically means everyone),

press on

and show the world (and yourself)

that YOU can turn impossibilities into possibilities.

it only depends on YOU.

Appeal for donation for DHS Year 6 Alumni Xu Zijia, 6C21

2009-03-18T01:31:00.002+08:00

From: Chern Wei SNG
Date: 2009/3/5
Subject: Donation Drive for Xu Zijia (6C21)
To: staff@dhs.sg
Cc: Boon Kiat NG , Kok Kwang TAN , Murnisah Hani MOHAMED , Siew Leng KOH , Siah Phen CHIN

Dear colleagues,
one of our Year 6 students, Xu Zijia (6C21), is battling bone cancer and is in need of financial aid. We would like to appeal for donation from parents next week. This initiative is spearheaded by Zijia's classmates in 6C21 and together with me, they have prepared a letter of appeal to parents. This letter is attached for your information. We will be issuing the letter to students next Monday.

In the letter, we have encouraged cheque donation to minimise the handling of cash. This will help to ease administration and avoid mishandling of cash. However, if parents choose to make cash donation, I would still need to trouble the FTs/CTs to help collect and account for these cash donations.

FTs/CTs - for students in your class who would like to make cash donation, please help to collect them by next Wed. Pls use the class list to let donors indicate the donation amount and let them sign against the stated amount. Please tally up the donation on the class list before passing both the cash & class list to the AMs for safe-keeping.

AMs - pls help to set up a donation box in the general office from next Mon to next Fri for students to make cheque donation. Pls indicate on the box that it is for cheque donation only. Students from 6C21 will come to the General Office daily to clear the donation box and account for the cheque donation, before passing them to you for safe-keeping.

Staff in general - if you would also like to make a donation, please try to make cheque donation and deposit it in the General Office donation box.

Eng Choon - pls share this appeal with the Alumni too.

I know such efforts add work to many of you but hope that you will bear with it knowing that it is for a good cause. Zijia is battling his bone cancer very bravely. On the few occasions I spoke to him, he was mature, positive and determined. There was no bitterness or self-pity. I wonder if I would be as strong as him given the same circumstances.

regards
Chern Wei

shokudo and timbre on 14feb

2009-02-21T16:32:00.018+08:00

hey! i have the time and so i have decided to do a post on last week!

So this is what we did on vday..

at shokudo

We went to Shokudo for dinner!

We even found neoprint machines and went in to use our cameras!

Group photos!

at timbre

Next we went to timbre. I can only relate up to a certain point since I got 'suddenly bloody drunk' after that. But I collected enough information from everyone to be able to tell the story all the way until everyone got home!

We ordered so much! All the mixers and tequila and vodka! So we were all just drinking and getting high and enjoying nice love songs from the band.

Some of the waitress serving us.. Oh there was this damn cute waitress which hy was super interested in. HAHA. but we dint manage to take a photo of her. i heard hy kept wanting to ask for her number but all he got in the end was a name.

some random shots..

oh ya glen drank some funny drink also. buddha something? HAHA. forgot the name.

getting drunk alr..

Oh, and this woman(tourist) was doing some sort of a dance(salsa? line dance?) outside timbre when the band played, caught everyone's attention. It was just really funny and cute. Here's a video of her. lol.

After that they were mostly ugly dramatic scenes which i don't remember and although i had updates it was still better that i can't rmb. was not a nice part of the outing also. haha. so the main point was that we got home safely. MANY THANKS TO GERALD FROM ME for getting me home safely too!

So how was ur vday?(=

28 FEB 09

2009-02-21T14:18:00.000+08:00

and to be fair, this is an unglam video of the semi-drunk me, also from ka's camera. i was just wondering! wat the hell am i saying! y was i laughing! and does anyone remember? lol. i hear wensheng saying sth but im not sure! am i speaking coherently! theres another video also entirely dedicated to my laughter and im really honoured. thansk kokann. lol.

and here's yt and shaun's pillow fight!

LOL. notice wensheng smirking in the background. cant really see here but the video i have is clearer. this puny video here's really bad quality. anyway, poor yt and sh, victims of the violent behaviour. tsk tsk. HAHA

ON A SIDE NOTE,

i notice kokann calls me peiyi. just curious, who calls me peiyi and who calls me puiyee? lol.

About Squidland

2009-01-14T20:40:00.002+08:00

"Squidland is more like my personal blog rather than a squad blog."
been thinking about this ever since after my 2nd or 3rd post in chinese, and after a few others brought it up too.

Squidland initially started out as a shared blog, with irregular posts by 2 or 3 authors,
contents ranged from announcements of squad gatherings to emo pics with just-as-emo captions, to the series of S.O.F.T (the now "fEAtUREd SQUid"), aimed at recollection and reminiscing with the rest of squadmates readers.
Of late (or not so late actually), active authors has reduced to a soloist, thus contents posted naturally inclined towards the happenings & thoughts of my life, and less of the squad as a whole. Such was the perspectives garnered from the readers.

However, I must disclaim that I dun hav even in the least intention, to monopolize Squidland and convert it to a personal blog, to allow the exhibition of my writings.

To me, since squidland is a shared blog, anyone can post for everyone to read (we have a common a/c is a squid , whose username n password has been published but 2bad no one has time to use it =( ) The initial motivation which sparked off my first chinese post was all in the name of sharing. The response on tagboard was what that spurred me onto penning further posts.

but too bad, the no. of tags nosedived alongside with the economic downturn =(. that didnt affect me from giving up on writing, since the initial intention was to share, not to generate tags.

so i continued to post, till i realised i had a greater intention behind the consistence in postings - to keep this blog alive and active. this blog belongs to every1 of us, so it belongs to me too. n i hate to my things left unattended and uncared for. much as like a pot of bonsai will wither without regular grooming, or a child who will go astray without the daily guidance from its parents, a blog without regular posts & visits will be lost in the net or our memories. maybe will still haf some random rattles n complains on the tagboard tt goes nagging "wah y so long no one blog!!! go post leh!" but no one wants tt, right?

so i dun like to leave things like tt. therefore u dun see me succumbing to peer pressure & get a friendster or facebook account. i know i wun have the discipline to update it, so might as well dun create. yep, sure, u can tell me "just create n leave it there la" but i dun like to leave things there u see... if i remain as an inactive member for long, lesser people will visit it frequently isnt it? so the same theory applies to Squidland. only with regular posts will people reciprocate with regular visits.

i dont know wah zit like for you, but for me, when theres sth new in Squidland i'll feel freaking happy la. i look forward to this contentment, so i visit Squidland whenever i can, as in seriously: go home -> on monitor -> login -> sign in messenger -> internet explorer -> squidmates.blogspot [Ctrl+Enter]

i'll still continue to post so long as sth inspires me.
peiyi once told me she wanted to post one, but she already has her own blog so she said she dont want to repeat everything again.
to me, there's bound to be sth different that i want to share with certain select groups of people (other than posts n pics of our own respective gatherings)
i have 2 blogs, both are shared blogs in fact, and the posts i authored are radically different from Squidland.
haha but peiyi dun ged me wrong ah i'm not trying to blame u nor make u feel guilty for not posting. i respect ur decision.
and this is definitely not a post to lambast any1 for not posting.
theres really no point in forcing a post out of any1
postings should b self-motivated, and of coz when u have the luxury of time.

i think Squidland is happy as it is right now, although i really look forward to more people sharing. besides having fun times together whenever we meet up, i also wanna know that my fellow sqdmates are doing great out there in their individual disciplines.
it's just some voice from within that gives me some sort of consolation whenever i know my sqdmate is doing fine leading a happy life. maybe it's the magic of a 7years sqdmates bond. 我想，换成是小五时坐在第五行第二排的轩我才懒得去理会他过得好不好咧。

who post or how many tags isnt where my priority stands.
the guys have told me they still visit Squidland every now and then,
just that they dun tag. (in a friendly debate with weiliang in which i propose he shld tag to let me know that he came by, he rebutted with an analogy - that a murderer who doesnt leave evidence behind doesnt not equate to his innocence)

ah! so long as i know that im not talking to imaginary friends.
i know u guys will read one right...

this isnt a personal blog so i'll include excerpts from any random sqdmate's blog:

"...and according to the squids i kind of 'graced' their outing hur!!!
HEY SQUIDS PLEASE DO NOT SAY TT I SHY I WILL GO FOR MORE OUTINGS OKAYOKAY!but seriously time flies i think i havent met them for close to a year already yet everyth felt so familiar and it was even kind of comfortable hanging out with them. happy times on swing night pictures eating hongkongfoood and terrorisin 3 huge fish in glen's hse. what to do.. 7 years friends. haha! squidmates4life yaw."

唉。。。别说我医哞啊，应用以下这段歌词来作结尾：

“我们都已经长好多梦正在飞。。。”

七。

你百听不厌的情歌是哪一首？

2009-01-02T18:48:00.003+08:00

只要STEADY*一转播到这一首歌，我必定会把声量调高，把耳机塞进些，好比锤子敲膝盖的反应那么自然。

开头，淡淡的钢琴旋律徐徐牵你踏进爱情成都，悠悠的吉他伴奏似地铁般带动着你穿梭于这浪漫情怀。许志安浑厚声线且深情款款的演绎搭配着许慧欣的甜蜜献声，默契十足诠释着爱情宣誓的歌词，调制成一杯爱情鸡尾酒。轻轻地呷(xiā)**一口，以听觉细细品尝这绝无仅有的滋味，陶醉在恋爱的真善美。。。

初尝这首荡气回肠的情歌，我们就读中三。母校在青年节举行了年度歌唱比赛。当时以这首歌为参赛歌曲的，正是我们的师长Minghui Sir，与一名歌咏队员的中四生（穿得蛮“热”的）。

第一次听了后，
回家后就马上下载，
而且一听就听了五年了（仍在算下去）。
“医哞(mōu)***”时，STEADY突然播起这歌，我有时还会偷偷um chio 呢。
就是有这样的魔力，就是这一首《恋爱频率》。

来个回顾吧，和歌词分享：

歌曲：恋爱频率
歌手：许志安 & 许慧欣

安: 好久没有吹微风的晚上
我们看着山下都市灯光
你说快乐和自由是穷人的天堂
这种想法我很喜欢 oh~

#
欣: 你要我闭上眼睛想像
有我看不见的一个远方
你说地球是乐园
要用心去游览
这种说法多浪漫
安: 心在飞
欣: 心在飞
安: 路很长
欣: 路很长
安: 我们是彼此的避风港
安: 听着你
欣: 还不理
安: 聊到从前和未来
合: 你心里所有的梦跟我很像

合: oh you light up my life 所以我也希望
我们心中频率都一样
欣: 梦加点感觉
安: 思念装上翅膀
合: 爱是无限可能的飞翔
合: oh you light up my life 我想让你分享
我们心动时分的梦想
欣: 这是一个开始
安: 还是一种幻想
合: 未来正在等待不是吗

安(独白):
一直跟你说那天一起吃晚饭
想问你开心吗
这些日子看着你追着自己的梦想
快乐专心的每个样子
我想我们的梦想有一样的频率
不是吗

[从#开始重复]

合: 未来我想和你分享~

P.S.:
*STEADY: 我的IPOD的名称
**呷(xiā)**: sip
*** 医哞 - 'emo' 的译音
哞(mōu): [像]牛叫的声音
P.P.S.:
来post 一下leh, share your be<3ed song with us.

长假（2）

2008-12-18T22:59:00.016+08:00

好像放假去，放一个悠长假期 (Long Vacation)。

每刻想至这，脑海里就会自然浮现这部画面：

幻想自己是故事男主角[濑名]，萧邦灵魂仿佛附上了我双手，在钢琴键盘上演绎自己独树一帜的芭蕾舞蹈。弹出的旋律为内心中的思和绪作出了微妙的刻画，随而承载至她耳边。无须言语的接轨，她用心的聆听，然后细细绵语：“嗯，我听见了，我知道，我明白。”

和煦的夕阳透进这温和的小客房厅，照亮着你的左侧，我的右侧。挤在同一座黑皮椅子上，她把脚搭在架子上，身体，依偎着我背上。我和钢琴奏着悠悠旋律，博取她一丝不苟的专心聆听。这两人组合的表演者和观众，陶醉在属于我们的音乐盒里。

被世俗的滚滚红尘盲了双眼，有时候，真希望能有个她，牵着手，把我从迷朦拉出来，让我在这缭乱的城市仍然看得见生命中真正有价值的幸福。

陪我一块儿喜、怒、哀、乐，

陪我一块儿静、闷、痴、狂，

陪我一块儿回味最简单的玩意儿，譬如，从高楼抛掷塑胶弹球，然后凝视这小小弹球顽强地违反牛顿地心吸引力的定律。

就这样：

~~~~~~

就是这一颗花纹酷似青花瓷的青色弹球：

对童话般的画面的一种憧憬，

以及，

等待着，

那一个

她。

找到了 =]

2008-11-15T13:25:00.005+08:00

我上个月在台北士林夜市寻找道地小吃，到处逛了逛，约晚上十点回到和朋友汇聚地点，意外的发现一台胶囊机器。我直觉性且毫无迟疑投入了台币10元，顺时针方向转了两圈。从里头咕隆咕隆地滚出来的是这个小家伙：

第一次就赢取盼望已久的小玩意儿，还有什么比这更惊喜的惊喜呢？

在人生地不熟之地找着一件熟悉的小东西，宛如海底捞针。
当时的我雀跃万分，
好比老爸买万字票中头奖的幸运感觉，
好比十年寒窗的书生苦尽甘来，
好比小朋友舔到付不起的雪糕。
（我只差没握着小绿球到处蹦蹦跳跳而已 =P）

快乐可以很简单！

LEmmE issue a challenge!
See if you can finish reading this post within 2 minutes. =D

这种橡胶弹球，你可曾在童年岁月时玩过？

那天，我到旧机场路小贩中心二楼复印些文件，偶然在栏杆（railings）前发现了这久违的小机器。它让我兴奋了好一阵子呢：

它虽躲在其他身形较大的胶囊机器（capsules machines）旁，对我而言，却是如此的强眼。

最后一次碰到这类装满花纹色彩缤纷的橡胶弹球的机器是多久以前之事，已不是我这健忘者所能记得的了。

更为难得的是，转一次拿一粒弹球，只需你从口袋里掏出一个两毛钱的硬币。

两毛钱！

现在到处的胶囊机器最少都要你割舍一块钱的金币，甚至两个、三个。

别人一块钱只能转一次拿一颗胶囊，我这儿一块钱就能让我痛痛快快的转上五次，拿5颗弹球。单单这经济效益（economic benefit）便能让我沾沾自喜一整个下午了。我承认自己容易知足。 =D

从那天以后，旧机场小贩中心二楼，便成为我“寻欢”之处。若是刚巧经过，就一定会从钱包中掏出几个两毛钱硬币，转一转。我看中机器里头那一颗绿色花纹、稍微透明的弹球 - 它很奇妙的让我联想起小五时追看的日剧《长假》。剧中，在女主角最低落的时候，男主角就是用了一颗花纹相似的弹球逗她开心。他从四楼的住家窗户，把弹球往楼下猛力一抛，弹球回弹，女主角伸手握住。小五的我还未对Principle of Conservation of Energy 有透彻的了解，故我对这现象又惊又喜的，至今仍印象深刻。

但是，机器里的绿色花纹弹球屈指可数，每次转出来的，多是单橘色或白色的弹球，很是失望的。不过，偶尔还会转出些其他颜色的花纹弹球：蓝色的花纹弹球仿佛蔚蓝海洋，橘色的宛如热情奔放的太阳。

要是我妈知道这件事，她肯定责怪我浪费钱。
“花酱多钱就买那一颗球而已呀！”我似乎可以想象她谴责我的内容。

不，我不是买“那一颗球而已”。
看，我现在不是已经买了很多别种款式的弹球了吗？我也非常喜欢这些弹球啊。
“那一颗球”只不过是我的目标，我更重视的是赚取到那一颗弹球的过程。
花两毛钱换取那份期待的感觉，和偶尔的意外收获，值得不过。
对我而言，过程一向来都比成果重要。
把注意力从成果转移到过程，我发现到，我获得更多。

或许你也对我这个嗜好匪夷所思。
干吗对几颗弹球大惊小怪的。
因为，它勾起我过去童年时的美好时光。
因为，它让我马上体会到最简单的快乐。
因为，它使我的以后都有令我盼望的一件事。

不顾他人所言，全神贯注的做令自己快乐的事，有时，可以很快乐。
这虽是芝麻绿豆般的小事，却对我很重要，因为它是我快乐泉源之一。

你生命里最重要的小事，又是什么呢？

2008-01-10T00:02:00.000+08:00

courtesy of xianglong and due to requests from some other squids, here's some clarification of NS jargon.

Pulau tekong, where BMT ( Basic Military Training) takes place for our army boys, has 2 schools normally, an exception of a school 3 only when the dragon yr people goes in, ie last yr

in each school, there are 13 companies. in school one, the companies are named alphabetically from A to M and in school 2 from N to Z ( not sure abt this one, but theoretically it's evenly splity, but i noe M, moehawk is in school 2, so i dunno la). School one is located more inland, ie further from the jetty so the sad asses who get posted there, like me has to walk a hell long way before we can reach camp. School 2 is located right at the jetty, with a nice sea view like a chalet :)

each company consist of roughly 200 boys/men, and each company has 4 platoon, platoon 1, platoon 2 to platoon 4. each platoon has roughly 50 people. and each platoon is then split into 4 sections, and consist of roughly 12 people each. Each section lives in the same bunk.

2008-01-09T23:02:00.001+08:00

heyhey! i've uploaded the photos for today too. u can download from here(which is rather redundant) or just scroll a little and click and download. haha.

so we sent another 4 squadmates off today! namely eepin, wensheng, hengyu and quanrui in chronological order!

Glen probably doesnt need shampoo now already. I came home feeling pretty..... strange. And then I fell asleep till past midnight. After bathing I thought I would blog about us today, but pictures havent been uploaded and I wasnt exactly in the mood to emo any further, so I was already heading off to bed when....

Rabecca lai came online.

DAMN.

So the thing is, here I am, sleep-deprived and waiting for hundreds of pictures to sync for her. And here's some worrying news:

I think Rabecca is ill. =/

SHE IS STALKING HERSELF.

And somehow, I got pulled into revisiting the past with her... and rediscovered what a sad existence she led... still does, but that's really beside the point.

Her self-convo-ing skills have not deproved over the years, i assure you. Neither has her deluded view of her own wit left her.

rabeccat says:
LAST TIME IM DAMN FUNNY LEh
WTF HAPPENED TO Me

We don't exactly know, do we?

What we do know is that there hasn't exactly been any positive change.

For a peek into how much sadder a character she waaaassss, read on:

[2005]
read this after 3 hrs 41 minutes: HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! may all couples stay lovingly together n all singles not be so stupid as to start a relationship. lol. bye!

[2006]
happy day! may all couples stay lovingly together n all friendships last forever!

i kind of appreciate ms yee more now. she's actually quite a witty teacher. but she's dam wad la!! i lie down for awhile she niao oreadi. asldasldsaj! sumtimes the tings she sae rilli quite useless wad. but yesterdae's lit i paid full attention! whoa. im so proud of myself. n her teachin quite ok la. n im now becumin more neutral towards ms low too. she has good intentions i guess. just irritating...still.

rabeccat says:
I TINK LAST TIME THE WAY I TALK DAMN KAO PEH
rabeccat says:
DAMN FUNNNY

accompanied the sec ones to the dog unit. i've learnt tt: dogs are cool. dogs are intelligent. dogs are cute. dogs show their excitement when they see me by going mad. when dogs bark they like to twirl around in circles--therefore, i can infer tt dogs don't get dizzy too ezly. dogs emit a weird stench (aft careful analysis, i feel tt it probably has got sumth to do wif their diet).

and then her condition got worse... gleeps.

anw. rab's officially a crime prevention ambassador! aha! all u pple better not commit any crime! the person who stole/picked up but din surrender my hp can GO N DIE. u CRIMINAL. u CROOK. u BADDIE. u THIEF. u STEALER. u CHEAPO. i hope samara kidnaps u.

Samara is some ghost from some movie tht she was blogging about at the start of her post.

For more details, please refer to http://www.rabeccat.blogspot.com/ and check out the archives.

With this, I conclude, at 4.24 am, this post, which I hope will make you a little less sad from missing glen, because you'd probably feel the need to divert a huge portion of care and concern to rabecca lai. The saddest part is that she seems kinda proud of it.

Lastly, we all wish glen, eugene, and all the other guys who will be enlisting soon

ALL THE BEST FOR NS

Please take care and keep us squids in your heart :D

.
..
...
....
.....
......
.......
ok la yea it's really late。

anyway SOFT's gonna take a temporal termination.

due to:

- the big 'A's

yea u might be thinking what can be so time-consuming about putting up a pic...
and giving some lame comments about it.

actually that reason is secondary.
the primary reason is because i realised SOFT is losing its attraction

so supply side policies have to be implemented through research and development

ie.

new and innovative ideas have to be injected into SOFT!

i need time to generate new ideas into SOFT!

meanwhile,

all the best to those taking Prelims&As/Promos/any other major examinations of any form

and...

just some pics which might be in resonance with ur frustration over revisions & exams...

u might have seen these in some junk emails.

how is this pic taken:

did u expect it?
kud0s to xianglong n shaun for getting it right! =)

anyway
the hint given is "capitalism" with open and close inverted commas
so it should appear obvious tt we'r not to uds it by its original meaning.
what u shld extract out of it is "capital".
the little no-link extract contains only 6 capital letters throughout
which forms the word FAN FAN in order of appearance.

ok perhaps the extract is rather misleading
so no one bother to solve this mystery via the hint i suppose.
i promise to come out with more obvious clues in future!

HALLOOOOOOO SQUIDDIES!

Apparently this saturday is POP! SOOO.......... how about we go ECP in the morning, ard 11????

We can do a lot of stuff! blade, cycle, kayak even!
For noobshits such as rab and pat who cant cycle, we can easily rely on tandem bikes and noble ppl willing to ferry them hohoho.:D and and and, being the fabdab squidmates that we are, we can like, take up the immensely difficult task of teaching them :D

okay then after that we can go dhs together la!

What say what say!!!

oaky????

alohA

wAs browsing through the collection of photos ive taken since the birth of my first family digicam 5 years ago
and since a squadblog without frequent updates might end up like that:

yea. cobwebs. even spiderman wanna block our tagboard. [they'r all spiders anyway. but i intentionally search for a pic where he pose more like a human.hoho! who would have thought mr spiderman would make guest appearance @ our squidblog. and lookat tt pic @ top right hand corner tt spider over there's gonna eat up the poor little one on the web. poor little one! and scrutinize @ the web. tt spider cant sew very well. maybe we should send him to a sewing class.o shit i've digressed. HAH.]

so flipping thru my pics i thought to myself its really not serving much purpose staying in my com harddisk being 井底之蛙。so its high time some of them 重见光明。

i came up with this idea.
i post a pic of our squids fortnightly (i'll try to achieve this.but there will be reptitions.)
i include some details about it.
and u readers look @ it.
and comment if u wan to @ our tag-tag. -->

simple dimple.

making the debut of "SqUID of THE FOrtnIght"......!

featuring: [u guess la]

date taken: 14/03/2006
event: DHSNPCC Annual Camp 2006 (2nd Day)
what were we doing: on our way to find some entertainment (ended up pooling)

I thought this photo deserve some impactful name
can anyone think of one?
=)

well, since everyone's been saying that the tagboard's gone, i decided to get a new one..

Home of Squids!

Aye aye my Captain Davy Joneses of Squidmatesforlife!

Despite the failure of our webmasters *coughsiwonderwhocoughs* to keep all previous blogs alive, Magnificent Me, as well as Not-so-Magnificent Rab decided it was high time to give us Squids a home online.

Even though I aint a Blogger, I decided to conform for the sake of majority of the Squids, including the owners of the now-defunct to0t-lab and scholes-woof, who i gather are more familiar with this noobshitz layout tht i seriously dont get at all -.- Oh, Noble Me. *sighs*

Okay so this way, Aoxiang will have a Very Convenient Platform to dish out PICTURES to us [ that was a hint], and when we organize squidoutings and don’t wanna blow our SMS quotas composing a 5msg long SMS worth of unconfirmed details, ah ah ah, yall know where to come! :D

Speaking of which, squids go fly kite! [ Shaun! :D]

Anyway if yall think tht Eunice Lau Su Hui was once again MIA during 45th ann,

" Wrong ANswer".

She reappeared after 1435837 million years.

Like, OMG.Thats so awesome, Dude!

Btw squids, our email and username is squidmates@hotmail.com, and the password is what the guys always call Lai Jinyuan. [Hint: nonya and ra????] okay damn i think its too obvious hahaha. SOmeone take the hint down if you please.

Surprisingly enough, the password strength registered STRONG when i typed it in. I think its because its an unbeatable noobshitz password tht totally stunned the system. Im glad it didnt cause the entire Blogger to crash.

Okay im damn tired cos i hadta wait for Dao Da Pau as she conned me into believing she was creating a home for us Squids when she was actually neopetting away. No-lifer. ROARS. Okay Dao Da Pau, its your turn, go get a tagboard up so we can spam it.
