Haha 70s Theme ESC club Annual Meeting

Quickpost this image to Myspace, Digg, Facebook, and others!

Creedence actually went the extra to dress with his parent's 70s shirt! Omg he was so dissapointed when everyone there was outta theme... even the organisers were "partially" 70s in a way. Poor dude...

Either way things brightening up with nice lectures and wonderful meals. I suddenly have the urge again to see the beautiful sun rise.... Maybe I will do it this friday... Then at night I will do night cycling, this time + all the way to changi and back which will be mabe 30+ km?

Attempting to build my own headphone amplifier at the moment, the design is taken from the CMOY amplifier.... Haha taking the componenets in the school component store is fun.... fun...!

Now debts are almost over with a little bit left. By next week I should have saved enough to buy the drop bar and maybe the gear shifter for it..... Slowly one step at a time :)

Another boring day....

Woke up, ate lunch, go bugis library, study wif guangting, ate dinnner, gone home.

Wonderful day ain't it? Yea no life rite....... what to do.... sigh still thinking about poor Michael...

cheered up a little this week. Not as depressed as last week but sill in a way.... still some things on my mind.....

Stay well,
Clement

Sleeping in the sun? Not a very good idea

Had to cover a Dragonboat race event for TP at marina barrage. It was pure hell, waking at 5.30, then waiting like hours before the race starts. With the next race being hours apart. At one point we were out on the field early ready to take the race, then we ended up waiting 1 hour in the nice sun for them to start. We waited so long in the sun so many times that we even took naps on the bench... Resulting in a nice tan LOL

Cycling 28km the previous night and sleeping at 1+ am wasn't a very smart thing to do with such stuff the next day. Plus I didn't have any money left so I couldn't buy anything to eat. Luckily lunch was provided by sch but that was about it.... 6.45am to 6pm I done my service.....

Clement

Transformers 2... Very Good

Fantastic opening, lots of intense scenes and fighting + lots of good humor :)

9/10 rating from me. I predict there will be a transformers 3 coming soon though, cause the bad guys are not "compeletely" dead yet.

Ran out of $$ completely. Looks like I can't eat tomorrow. The most I can afford is my $0.40 coffee. Well good enuf, coffee gives you eternal life! Hahaha

Cheered up a little today despite many problems. Got 40/50 for Digital fundamentals! Topped da class but really this is just luck la. Im sure my classmates will overtake me soon. After all im not very talented, I gotta study very hard for things that take other people a short time to master.

CKT results release on friday... Either way because of my math I doubt I will get the certificate programme anymore... Oh well another one my dreams and ambitions smashed in my face again.

Stay Well,
Clement

Arrgh! Stressss! Im so sick of this....

I suck at math, without doubt, I scored 59/100 for this term test.... depression.....

Either way will try harder next time..... sigh........

Clubroom politics again? Oh god please don't get me started on that..... Im so sick of it... Trying to please the whole world is extremely dermoralising in the process.

Now what else? People spreading rumors? Oh you backstabbing piece of shh....... So you get ur petty revenge by spreading rumors? Thanks ah... thanks...

Now that schools reopened MORE WORK I just realised the whole shhhhT load of things that I must catch up on... Homework, practice etc... I can't study in advance for certain subjects now cause now they are much more advanced....

And last of all DEBT! Now that school reopens do I get my allowance, and with debt almost hitting 100, it isn't funny when I look at my wallet having only $10 and surviving throughout the the whole week for breakfast lunch and maybe dinner. This is a living nightmare.

And last of all, my mum thinks I have a girlfriend?? HAHAHA who would love this ugly, bad tempered guy? This is soo stupid, I know what im capable of and NOT capable of and that is actually have a relationship.

Sorry to all the readers, had to vent my anger somewhere.....

Stay well,
Clement

45km = Endless Fun!

Haha I just love such events! The cycling marathon held by safra was great, I had a great time cycling as its really hard to find such a nice unobstructed road to cycle for long distances! Looks like my speedometer came in very handy today. Thanks to it I managed to pace my cycling and know my total dis travel, speed and such.

It took me 1hr50mins to complete the 45km. It really wasn't very fast, my friend could complete it in around 1hr 15 mins or so. I cruise around 23km/hr they cruise at 30+km/hr!!!

Finally got my $50 allowance for this week. Since I got so much debt I don't think I can go around eating expensive food anymore. Plus im saving up to upgrade my bike to drop bars!

Regards,
Clement

Expensive Bike Accessories.....

Finally convinced my mum to fund my bicycle... Got a new pair of pedals, a speedometer and a front light... cause I come home late and the pavement is pretty dark... All cateye except for the pedals...

Just rented the blue-ray "letters from iwo-jima". Gonna watch it tonight.... I better sleep early, tomorrow I have to arrive there by 7 that means I gotta wake at 5am or earlier I guess....

Stay well,
Clement

Cycling Training!

Finally met Ming Yang at 6am at East Coast park. We watch the sun rise then we set off to changi for breakfast! The trip there was pretty slow as we were traveling around 17km/hr or so cause he brought this cousin.

Once there, Ming Yang suggested we eat beside our bicycles... Im was giving him the "wtf" look. And he was serious so I tagged along. I bought hor fun and he bought ba chor mee. We then took the tray all the way outside and sat there and eat.... LOL

Either way on the trip back to east coast we decided to cycle faster up and down the track while his cousin completes it. We cruise somewhere around 30km/hr up and down that long stretch of bicycle track beside the airport runway. Not once but 5 times!

Either way, my pathetic attempt to repair my el cheapo old bike was in vain... the tyre tube had so many holes leaking air that it was impossible to patch.... Looks like I can't bring my mom cycling tomorrow morning. Either I jog and she cycles or we wait till the afternoon and repair it before going off...

I seriously need a new pair or pedals and a speedometer + a handle bar extension....

1 day countdown to school reopen! YAY!

Regards,
Clement

Alarm failed me...

Supposed to wake up at 5.30.... Ended up waking at 11am.. cause my alarm clock which runs on 240v decides to switch off cause the contact on the power plug is shaky....

Poor ming yang.... Either way I rearranged to meet him on friday morning....

Did nothing much today. Had to go change a faulty tuner for my dad...

The wood for the new speakers just came in... Looks like its time....for the big speakers :D
Got so much work to do like glueing and drilling + all the wiring...
The rest of the speaker components are still on the way from the US...

Regards,
Clement

Wonderful time on the beach!

Woke at 5.45am, changed, grab my stuff and cycled off to east coast park. Im quite suprised to see quite a number of people jogging at such a time early in the morning. Hardy anything was visible at all. A light infront would really have helped but I didn't have the time to take it off the old bike.

I lied down on the breakwater and just watch the sky get brighter and brighter. At around 7+ the morning sea breeze came in and it was wonderful! I ended up lying there for 2 hours listening to nice jazz! Will never forget that!

Tomorrow morning going to meet Ming Yang at 6am at east coast to cycle to changi for practice. 5.30am to wake up this time... wah sian...

Stay well,
Clement

Zoo after err.. 8 years?...

Went to the zoo today with my little cousin. My aunt asked me to follow so yea... Anyway got some pics.. please don't blame me, I never bring slr :(

Either way this morning couldn't wake up early enough cause I selpt at 3am! Arrgh!
Tomorrow Im gonna cycle to east coast and watch it instead!

Regards,
Clement

Depression kicks in...

Im just getting some mixed feelings inside me. I don't know what im doing... for some personal reason im feeling really depressed...

Even argued with my dad for a short while... Nothing serious la just abit of argument only...

I read that people whom sleep late at night tend to be more depressed than people whom wake up early in the morning.

So I have decided. Im gonna watch the sun rise tomorrow and take time off to release this unhealthy feeling.... Some jazz with music and some self reflection will definitely make me feel better.

Regards,
Clement

Gloomy day....

Went to the PC show today with Leonard, felt kinda bad cause I made him wait almost 2 hours :X

LOL not my fault cause when I wanted to leave my mum said that she wanted me to visit my grandma at the hospital first and she offered to fetch me there after that. So I said okay, but my grandma went on and on and on... so after that by the time I reach there and found the place Leonard already half dead.... so Leonard hope u forgive me!

I bought a linksys router and a reciever (dad wanted it!)... and had a picture with Halo 3's Master Chief helmet! Haha the legendary game set was like $190+ I think.... crazy....

I guess im gonna start training for the cycling event by safra next week. Which day not confirm yet, but most likely gonna cycle from east coast to changi if possible....

(oh yea it was team PLUS-STICK not plastic :X)

Stay Well,
Clement

Team Plastic? :D

Haha attended adventure camp today as per usual I was late :X

We played some games like captain ball etc... the standard stuff... lol the super tall guys got all
the advantage though -_- they were like catching the ball like no-ones business like dat... ugh..

Anyways lucky Iskanda came along today and yea he informed me about tomorrow's meeting for
the AMIG club. Me and Creedence had a good chat today after dinner on what we are going to
introduce to the club tomorrow at the meeting. I hope he gets membership no matter what!

Either way totaly didn't study today.... haiz.... tomorrow gotta start already! No more slacking!
Camp starts at 9am though... I don't like stuff dat early...

Oh well at least today turned out very well ^_^

Regards,
Clement

Sweet sweet sweeeeeet!

Hahaha the picture says it all! Finally got the heli off the ground
and hovering it nicely.

Sadly soon after mechanical problems with the tail again so yea I give up
on the current stupid tail setup. Im going full metal tail!! Its gonna be
freaking expensive though....

Had a nice chat with Creedence this evening! Glad to find that we have
the same views on things. Sigh politics with the club is such a difficult
problem...

Anyways I got a idea on my new design of the kite from our local
"goflykite" flyers. Gonna test them soon when I get the chance.

Got Adventure Camp tomorrow and yes Clement is going there... Alone....


Stay well,
Clement

Clement

Boring day...

Did nothing much, just reconfigured my servers abit play halo and l4d abit...

I completely forgot about the 48km cycling event that I signed up for... Ugh maybe I should start training with Kah Fai soon.... Hey Kah Fai if ure reading this give me a call and tell me when youre training!

Anyway Leonard is coming my house tomorrow to play l4d and halo... my poor bike is STILL in school. Tomorrow morning gotta bring my laptop to the clubroom for Izuan to design the RCSC logo... This will be interesting...

Then again still no pinion gear for heli... Sigh...

Regards,
Clement

Repair after repair...

This morning covered the event for RCSC as they had a race. The shots turned out pretty good although if I had a telephoto it would be nicer....

My heli kept giving me problems one after another, first the motor came out, then the tail rotor flew out then now the new motor pinion gear won't fit..... ugh looks like its grounded till next week.

Gotta start studying for next term on monday, no more slacking! I still have no idea when the exam results are released.... I will just check the online portal daily...

Keefe won 6th place in the race. Congratulations to him!

Now gotta fix all the computers at home.... a few months worth of problems.... a few reformats and a network change. Plus I still have to set up the website for the the AMIG club soon.... sigh...

You stay well,
Clement

Heli Grounded

Due to yesterdayls mechanical problems the heli can't fly today either. Waiting for the gear replacement.

In the afternoon, I dropped by the rc shop at east point mall and thank god they had the parts I needed. The gear cost me only $5... lucky me...

I bought a wood blade too as creedence asked me ro buy it. I bought it thinking he needed one but it ends up that he wanted me to change mine.... ran outta cash and had to borrow from Ben.. I gotta produce $28 to return tomorrow somehow....

Yours sincerely,
Clement

My Heli Lives!

Haha met Creedence today. The last time I saw him it was 3 years ago at the youth flying club. We used to fly rc planes there every sunday...

He had a business repairing rc helicopters before so I asked him to help me tune mine to fly. Thanks to him it flew perfectly with minor problems.

Haha now the aeromodeling club will have 2 trainers :) plus he can teach me to fly the heli!

Regards,
Clement

Tiring Day....

Haha the Digital Fundamental paper was free marks... Haahaha sure score grade Z one lol if not A. Maths I not so sure...

Repaired the estarter and my heli after exams + I built a new experimental prototype of kite from the Flying Club's old design. It has some issues and in experimental but soon it will fly :)

Anyway had dinner with a couple of frenz at tampinies mall and I couldn't finish the food cause I don't normaly eat soo much....

Left a mess in da clubroom... Yi Hao is soo gonna scream.... lol so late anyways I too tired. Tmr bah!

Clement

2 words.... Holy Fuck!

Long long story..... my dream has come true......

New motor is a powerhouse!

Haha finally installed the brushless motor and its wonderfully powerfull the sound of it spinning says it all. Now the helicopter tail motor is soo weak it always spins outta contol. Still dreaming of the belt drive....

Anyway, dumb yi hao juz spammed my blog -_-"

He really too free. He and his gf on my flirting when he got a paper in the next 10 min....... such confidence....

These are one of the many dangers of having a gf first of all its that u waste endless $$ on her. I seen many poor folks including my dad.....

Second of all they turn all mushy and soft. It disgusts me..... "oh I luv u, oh I luv u too".....

Well I'm not gonna say I won't have one in future but I guarentee I won't turn mushy or spend endless $$. But who would want this poor, ugly guy? Hahaha

You stay well,

Clement

Americanisation? Are you still 1980's?

Yes today im talk about influence. Nowadays topics that we discuss all talk about americanisation and how it has changed us, for example our songs and our food. Like for example how we have so many fast food restraunts just like America.

The truth is, if you observe carefully Americanisation was a thing of the past, we no longer follow the American way of living. Notice carefully, what kind of food is the sudden craze? What language does everyone suddenly want to learn? The answer is Japanese!

This new trend Japanisation also nicknamed Nipponisation (lol paint!) is THE trend. We see youngsters watching Anime we see many of them learning Japanese, we see more and more sushi restraunts poping up here and there and have long queues.

Think about it, I seen people say "Oishi" after dinner or "cho teh" when they could say "WAIT" instead, they say "Hai" instead of yes.

Personally Im against this trend. Why u may ask? Well the answer is simple. Are you Japanese? Are your parent's Japanese? If not then why are we acting like someone we are not? They have their culture and we have ours, we have lost our sense of identity of what makes us unique what makes us special and not some other guy following some trend.

So here's my opinion on Japanisation. I know I might anger some people whom swear by the Japanese culture but hey its just my opinion nothing to get angry about. Hope this has been a interesting read for you, thank you for reading and supporting. Thank you

Stay Well,
Clement
