today was such a good day for me. i've decided to post about it.

it was social studies presentation. i was darn nervous for my group. but we did well. people asked us to encore! and everyone outside the class from OTHER CLASSES was watching. i'm glad i got such teammates though. =d

a skit cum rap about racism.
our song went to a beat like this

and then, lessons were pretty good i guess.
i think that i will do pretty okay for my lit test.

and then went simei care centre. at first i thought it would be really hard to interact and was kinda nervous. they turned out to be really nice people =D
first i interacted with a guy name david. he played table soccer with me.
then played basketball with celeste
pool with donlu
chinese chess with this uncle. got pwned.

hah. it ended alot earlier than i thought! i enjoyed it. and we did a simple skit and the races for 2 korean interns! talked about korean stuff, and i said i wanted to be lee young ae! hah.

then went to kfc with a bunch of guys. hid tino's handphone and his facial expression was hilarious. then i cabbed home with poo-meh-lah! thanks for the ride thr. =d

these few days has been kinda depressing for me. today was a total turn =D

2007-08-06T21:14:00.001+08:00

it's been a week since i posted. so many stuff happen.

i had 2.4km run. i got 42 position, sucked.

hmm, it's just a really sucky period of my life and i hope it will turn good soon. when it turns good..i would post about it! no use posting about shit stuff that happens to me.

and i really feel like a garbage dump. ahhhhh.

more posts i hope. yes.

2007-07-27T21:58:00.000+08:00

end of friday.

it wasn't a day of fun or anything. i felt frustrated.

i need rest, awaiting to see if i can attend tomorrow's training. i really want to go. but im still coughing like shit and still blood in my nose.

i just want to finish my homework, do something right and be something worthy of.

somebody save me from this shitty period of time. *groan*

2007-07-26T22:35:00.000+08:00

haven posted in a week. 2 reasons.

1.investiture was just..so busy
2.and i was really sick.

well, everything's back to normal. i would like to post about investiture!

it started off releasing early, had a little dance-walk in practice. prepared ourselves. then everyone started coming in, we did our job well. got our badges, had farewell. blah blah blah.
what worried me the most was the dance. i had to do the handstand, the main point was that it was in front of the whole school and visitors, i definitely didn't want to screw up and fall.
luckily i landed properly, phew. and everything ended nicely.

some pictures courtesy to shuyi. =d

my favourite photo, i don't know why. hah.

part of welfare!

ohwell. more pictures at shuyi's blog. yup.

and i think i really eat too much. now is like, everytime i sneeze, blood comes out. bloody wicked.
tml's friday. hope it will be a good day.

graci seems to be sending a signal. well ben is looking at something else. i wonder.

2007-07-18T21:34:00.000+08:00

i shall post. it will be a short one. im fucked up tired.

yesterday was a boring day, so i didn't bother posting.
today was..well racial harmony day. lotsa stuff happen, im so lazy to type. maybe anyone who really bothers coming to my blog, go check out other ahs blog =d

the only thing i know was. i could do a flip, but quite a incomplete 1.

hah. i only posted cause i felt the need to and then vanessayeap wrote the word " blog " big big.

oh and yesterday i met a special " 7 days more " girl. lol =d

2007-07-16T21:36:00.000+08:00

so-so day

started off a day actually waking up at like, 7 pm which is a gawd darn miracle for bwen hiew. i was early for school.
some of you reading this either feels:
1. live so near no need show off right.
2. oh fuck u stay so near.
3. so? big deal.
on second thought, MAYBE NO ONE ACTUALLY IS READING THIS. BEN IS SUCH AN ASS CRACK.

oh. talking about today's buncha lessons, ms khoo called some of the students for flag day. i was like okay..and then today i had tuition, my teacher says the donation u get for the flag day. arnd 3-5% goes to charity ONLY. it made me thought "wtf?". The school is giving us CIP hours for doing charity, sounds sweet? around 95% actually goes to like, the ministers and government. There's this president challenge thingy, why name it president challenge, why don't the president just sent in a huge amount and everything would be solved. Rather than us, normal human beings living in singapore, call a hotline which makes u donate 5 dollars. ONLY TO REALISE AROUND..25 cents donated to the actual organization or something like that.
Singapore ministers are trying to fool us into such of kind of things. Myohmy.
The GST Hike is enough to kill us, why use sympathy to earn those kind of money too?
Maybe i'm right, maybe i'm wrong, but if you bothered reading those really small fineprint " 5% going to the charity blah blah.." ever thought of where the rest went? sheesh.
ok i'm so random. maybe i'm against how the school is handling such stuff. you know, i would rather pay for a overcharged tissue packet ( 50 cents or so ) to help that uncle or auntie out at the super market.

i went to eat with matthew and tino today. at mos burger, we were like playing pokemon there for 1 1/2 hours straight. fucking hell.
went back to school for dance practice, i realise i would be doing a handstand in front of the whole school. argh, i'm not confident. i mean, this is ben hiew. and the person posting now thinks ben hiew is kinda inferior.

ohwell, looking at the bright side. i actually wrestled joel ( for fun ) today at a bunch of mats. it's damn friggin' fun. even though the tv has already warned us elephantzillion-times about " do not try this at home" well, IT'S AT SCHOOL!

hah. and im here posting. ohwell, i hope something really brings my mood up. i feel my life is aimless, this blog is just a fraud. (kidding)

maybe i will try to upload the video of the match i had with joel. juncheng recorded i think.

2007-07-15T21:00:00.000+08:00

boring day.

it was spent at home. supposedly playing basketball in the morning. can't tahan my leg. sorry dudes.
i slept for most of the day. and ate my dinner

"wth, ben got such a boring life." yeah i think so too.

my brother is going to search for our family's roots like..this tuesday. surname in hanyu pinyin "qiu" mine's hiew in english, but also indirectly linked to khoo. my brother will be going all the way to..shenzhen with my uncle. that's something quite amazing. it's like..trying to accomplish something great in your life for once. i would like to do that, maybe..travelling around the world. i guess i can't stand the fact that my life has ended and i wouldn't know how the fuck italy or france looked like. good thing is, my buddy matthew has the same ambition too. but we both got different perspectives, he wants to travel by car. while me, i would like to just get a backpack and use the plane to travel around the world. well, whatever it is, if i get to travel around the world, it would be an amazing feat and i would be happy to do it in any way :D

( warning: continue further may develop symptoms of fatigue and breathing problems from reading this shitty piece of thing )

thinking about the future, i would really wonder how it would be like for hiew qi xiang,ben.
chef?
dj?
some businessman?
maybe even a teacher?
or..some asshole staying at home.
they really made me wonder, all i know is. i just have to work hard for now. but the motivation's not thr, gosh.

whatever it is, i hope my life will be a happy and fulfilling one. by travelling around the world.

my favourite hobby

2007-07-14T19:46:00.000+08:00

mixed feelings.

well. i just had a camp, hmm..short but sweet. it made me realise that this batch of councillors is willing to improve what was left behind by the previous batch. which wasn't that great..
council room cleaned
attendance rocked
things were done so-so-so much better.

i'm relieved.

the day before, it was basketball for like..5 hours. tengrui injured his thumb, takecare thr hor. and due to my injured right foot. most of the impact was on my left foot. now both are like..got this acute pain.
straight after basketball i rushed to camp, in which i joined them for dinner at 85. we learned dance. did lotsa stuff. cleaned council room. when clean was like. a whole new change. threw stuff that was..from 2004? hah.

danced all the way until 3 am, because i was so determined to learn how to perfect the dance, and watched borat which was so fucked up funny.
woke up the next day and practice more i guess? they had walk in practice. to sum it all, i love all my juniors. sm walk in was awesome.

went home and now here i am. the fucked up cham things to happen to me:
scratched badly on my arms
foot injury
MY POKEMON FILE CORRUPTING

well..the good things were like. i felt that council is alot better and all are determined to do their best. in every aspect. im happy. =d
i'm happy about alot of stuff, like..
my dancing partner is graci and eugenia. yay. let's do our best!
and shuyi, eugenia and juncheng to do a kallang wave for our lovely welfareans which really liven everything up, especially my day.
and sec 3 councillors for being so enthusiastic in this dance.
fellow basketballers that have made me feel like i'm inside this team to bond and win!
and matthew for being such a good dude to wait for me to pang jio and play pokemon.
and you, dreA to make everything bad worthwhile. =d hah.

2007-07-11T20:31:00.000+08:00

4th.

today was..an average day ba.

start of school. i was late i think. but luckily i was the one taking attendance. so it's alright. and gratefully, school tml starts at 850. the best thing to happen to a very powerful sleeper. day started off fine and everything..

i think i screwed my napfa. like..my standing broad jump is a pathetic 212, which is a C, fuck. my sit up was 51. surprisingly, when i look at my tummy and the 5 kg i've gotten this holidays. i was wondering if i could hit 40. phew. all we did is this two. i think im gonna screw my sit and reach for i am not flexible. my shuttle run for i am slow. even though not chin up for me, i'm still a weakling. 2.4 gogogo, but it's at the field.
and thr was presentation during assembly about johor bahru and uk trip. it was ok..
the whole day was spent on playing pokemon, and then i named each pokemon to all my classmates and friends.

and thr was dance practice afterwards! i realise i can do a handstand fully now, but i still got the fear. yikes..
AND THE BEST PART OF THE DAY. i sprained my ankle. ohwell.

something's in my mind these few days. guys, if you don't like council and all, it's alright to tell me. but don't overdo it, im a councillor myself. nothing is perfect, maybe thr are just some councillors who are out there to ruin the whole image of it. what i'm trying to say is, don't always look at the bad side of it, there are things you guys don't see on the outside. Like basketball for instance, everyone watch the matches. if we lost when we tried our best and gets blamed, the feeling sucks ya? that's how i feel in council.
since this is a blog. it's my feelings, i know some guys would go like. what the hell ben is trying to type. if you don't like it or whatever, im not forcing you to stay.
oh and yc, it's seriously not necessary to shout fuck council in front of 3 councillors. no one's laughing. i'm not trying to break a friendship because of this, but at least watch what you are saying.

ahhh, what a stupid day it has been. i was wrong saying it's a good and bad day. maybe good that i caught pikachu in pokemon red.

2007-07-10T20:32:00.000+08:00

3rd post consecutively! awesome, this shows how bored i am. and how much i have to rant about.

school was well..okay! it was a much better day than monday though.

so many things happen in class. like the seating arrangement, i love it with matthew and tino beside me. just the first day and i laugh until cry with these buncha suckers around me. there's also a pokemon craze now, everyone's playing it. i am the guai kia indulging myself in math, chem and also storybooks! oh and we watch ice princess, ms khoo said it is nice. it just seems so american-teenagerish. like oh my gawd.

oh and a conflict happen! i mean like. gwen took it to herself quietly, jiayou thr girl. im sure if the characters switched. u will hear screams like " BLAH BLAH BLAH " girls quarrelling. o.O

dance practice after school! b2k's take it to the floor. dance until i drop. glad i picked it up fast, but the consequences was seriously blistered feet. zzz. AND I SPLIT MY PANTS. WTF. luckily it wasn't those kind of big hole and there was an extra layer. and i can stay on a handstand for 5 secs without falling to my death and my neck breaking.

and thank you for the donuts dreA!
and thank you for the "erotic" chocos mei!
and matthew, my owning partner in take it to the floor!
and miaoqian,elissa and reu for teaching the dance!
and thank you mrs lam for making my remedials actually fulfilling compared to some other. =

i feel i am so random. like i rant about stuff that is..uninteresting. gosh. u guys can don't read it. cause im just writing about my own boring life. promise i will talk about interesting stuff. and actually put pictures.

tomorrow is something i look forward to. for chinese kitchen will be serving something edible and nice for me. and tomorrow's there is p.e, awesome

2nd post. awesome

school was real boring. my first day being the councillor giving books to teachers to mark the attendance, i actually saw how the teachers in charge of the sec 1 looks like. mostly newcomers. except for mdm cheng and some teachers.

chinese was the best. my dear mrs ong pek geok scold me for talking when i actually smiled for the whole period. awesome, she wrote the word "frustrated" on the board a little later on. that very well describes how i feel.

school was..well nothing. i did my tuition homework, went tuition. be a guai kia. and right now im posting this. mondays are boring.

oh and i acted as a bimbo during core literature. well not bad. got carried by 4 strong dudes around and i had to scream oh my god.

and yes, i met my dearest too. after my lunch at tampines. mos burger milk tea and fried squid. yum.

2007-07-08T22:27:00.001+08:00

This is ben posting his first post. hah.

uhm. basically i felt i got alot of shit to rant about. but i was too lazy to write on a journal and i seem to always be stuck at the com. there's something called a blog and i decided to indulge myself in it. maybe improving my english in a way. actually alot of stuff has happen that make me feel like ranting. like shang bo. hey dude, i know ur kinda worthless for me to even waste my breath to talk about you. rather, i would love to talk about your misfortunes. now THAT'S interesting.

Shangbo smoking. hah. i hope ur reading this. maybe i'm not the first one laughing at you. don't feel bad. your reputation is perfectly fine.

hmm..let's talk about the weekend. saturday was totally worthless, the only thing that left an impression was my sister's bbq. and today. uhm, i slacked all the way until now, stuck at the com, writing a post.

tomorrow's school. and i think my blog is still very very boring. i hope to see more posts coming out from me though.

my mouth feels like an oil tank cause i ate kfc. fuck.

i'm so random.

i shall stop here. and maybe drop a post about wonderful monday.

p.s ANDREA DON'T BE ANGRY THAT I DELETE THE 1ST POST. thanks still. ^^ cause well. i dun want so many shang bo in my blog also. lol. i appreciate it. hah
