my fish is swimming away

hey guys, sorry haven't been posting here for ages. just be so bz and caught up with things that i totally forgot bout my precious blog.
I don't think I really have much to tell you right now just this. Have you ever been told that if you want to find someone special in your life, you should wait at the pond to find the right fish because there are many beautiful fishes out there. Well, I found my fish bout say 3 years ago. She's everything I could possibly want. She's absolutely beautiful, nice, intelligent, friendly, good in sports, good in music, has a great personality and practically everything I've ever dreamed of. Sadly I have to say that she's 3 years my senior which makes her 19 this year. I've always enjoyed spending time with her when we're in a group together doing fun activities and i'll always treasure those moments. I've always been shy around her as expected but I can't help myself, she just makes me shiver and I tend to have superbly fast heart beats when i touch her. Ahhhhhhh!!!!! anyway, she's been accepted on a full scholarship to a university in Australia and the moment she announced it to the group, my heart was pounding unimaginably fast and I was waiting to hear the duration of the course. " I'll be there for a few years " and my heart completely shattered. I mean... I won't be seeing her for so long!! can you imagine that? I've never been so heart broken. She'll be leaving in mid- February so I only have about 2 1/2 weeks left to still able to see her. That's why I want to dedicate this song to her ( anonymous for safety precautions ). It's " Right Here Waiting" by Richard Marx
I'll be waiting patiently for her to get back.. every second, every minute, every day.. I'll still be waiting for you...... I'll be ready !!

the after life of form 3 ( 10th grade )

Wassup fellowssssss....
Today's the 2nd day I'm back in school. Oh well, it has to resume sooner or later, just felt as if it was too soon. I would like to stress something out. I"m so AFRAID of CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS and too add insult to injury, I just started my 1st add math lesson and I didnt understand a single word the teacher said.. GOSH!! I'm so dead man. Not to mention chem. and physics and the rest of the subjects yet to come. ahhh, I just hope I get to live long enough to get myself through the whole year... Ironically as you guys know, for my getting straight A's hence me moving to the top class of form 4, my class is the only class that receives homework. Haha, the rest of the classes gets to relax while I have to do boring homework. :(
Anyway, I celebrated the New Year wonderfully with a reunion with my former school and classmates back at seafield and of course my dear girl from aussie. It was a blast and the night continued as the joy went from TGIF ( sunway pyramid ) to DUMC Dream Centre where I celebrated the rest of the night with me other friends at church. I actually sprained my thigh muscla jumping up and down during the fire works. "ouch !!"
Speaking of which, I finally played badminton again after about say.... 1 year and a half of not touching a badminton racket, very rusty yes but at least I can still play drop shots and smashes.. my backhand still sucks though. xP
It's getting late fellows, I think I better finish up some of the add math work and start on my novel 'Bukit Kepong'. I've gotta finish that my the end of January and it's 300+ pages long for Christ sake!! Moreover, it's in malayyyyy. :(
okay, i seriously gotta go now, see ya guys in another week i guess. I will have to endure another week at school again. till then peeps!!

day of jubilee

hiya people of the blogging world. sorry been away from the blogging scene but I'm back. 1st of all I'd like to say, I HAVE STRAIGHT A'S FOR PMR 2007 !!! I mean like can you believe it? oh well, all glory goes to God and I thank him for everything man!! Phew! You should have seen my face as I was about to take the results. I could hardly breathe. The day before it I could hardly sleep but the moment I received the results slip, I immediately screamed and was hopping like a cute little bunny creature. Gosh, I couldn't believe it man! right before my very eyes were 7 A's printed on to a piece of paper stating that my last 3 years of education wasn't put to waste. Oh well, again "PRAISE THE LORD", couldn't have done it without him. And to my mum, my motto of "I'll know what to do when the big exams come" still works since primary school and the motto lives on. And for those who ever doubted me from getting straight A's ( including myself ), TAKE THAT!!! Oh and all my friends dating back to primary school friends all achieved 5A's. I'm so proud of them and of course myself. The "gang" consisting of me (7a's), Wen Hao (7a's), Danial (8a's), Kabir (7a's), Sean (6a's 1b) and Ashraf (8a's) did so well. But of course we were a lil' dissapointed with sean being the only one not achieving straight A's but don't worry, we'll all give 100 % for SPM seeing as we can now forget bout PMR and focus on SPM !!! Oh well, away from the academics, I watched 2 movies today, one was 12 am-2 am ( ya ya I know it was very late and I had to wake up early today to collect my results but the movie glued me onto the chair and I couldn't help it sorry ) and the other was earlier this afternoon ( now is 12.36 am 28 Dec2007 ). the 1st oje was entitiled "ACCEPTED" starring Jake Long and Blake Lively and phew!! I've only seen Blake once in a movie called "the Sisterhood of The Traveling Pants" and I didn't really noticed her but now, gosh isn't she just plain HOT!!! I mean she's partly the reason that kept me glued on to the tv for so long. Anyway, the other movie was "in the MIX" starring Usher ( yeah the singer/rapper) and Emmanuelle Chriqui and boy oh boy is she utterly beautiful. She's like one of the few girls (she's not actually a girl- she's 30 yrs old this year LOL) in the whole world that just leaves me breatheless and make me can't keep my eyes off her. She's so beautiful, so natural, so hot, so everything. GRRRRR !!! God!! why did you have to make human beings like that? it's just torturing my lust and myself so much that I can hardly bear it. AAARGHHH!!! I'm obsessed about her and seriously I've just found a file full of pics of her and I know her entire biography, all in a day !! amazing? thats what I do when I really really like someone. lol *fantasy* though. Anyhow, getting late now, still got stuff to do and maybe if there's still time I can catch a movie later lol. imagine what time i'll be sleeping xP
till then pplz- Ciaoz!

by the way, I got 7a's!!!! G'Night!

a week of non-stop excitement

hiya fellas, sorry about yesterday's short notice and I'll keep my promise of telling ya exactly what happened during youth camp, I mean not exactly but you'll get it roughly. Let's see what happened...
First of all, I'd like to tell you that I only had one day of break in between the WYSC and XYZ Youth Camp which was on Friday 7th December. I even had to attend three classes on that day in order to graduate from DBS class 2007 so it wasn't even a rest day for me but oh well I have to do what's necessary. I got up at around 7 and reached the church at say 9 am? We had a lil' briefing and a lil' chit chat before the bus arrived. The bus ride took bout 1 hour plus minus and we had MORE chit chat in the bus. Lol
The place was freezing cold and I mean FREEZING cold !!! especially the outdoors, you could really feel your hands turning in to ice. We got off to a great start with the games and stuff, The games were great and I had so much fun and I think everyone agrees with me. We also had our usual Angel-Mortal thing every year and to my disgust, my angel was sleeping next to me throughout the whole camp!!! He was right beside me all the time and I didnt know, tsk tsk. At least he got me some stuff, haha thanks for the poem and magnet, man. We also had some singing dedications for the Angel-Mortal programme, Chronicles nice singing. :)
The food was okay, nothing much to comment bout that, lol. I made so many new friends during the camp especially Mr. John Afro, haha like your "bush-like" hair man. It's like from the 70's or maybe like the hair in the movie "Austin Powers", very funky. The best thing about the camp has to be the preacher Pastor Kevin from City Harvest Church. You ROCK MAN!! and you're only 32, I can't believe it. You're practically one of the coolest guy and pastor I have met. I loved his preaching and just couldn't get my ears off him talking, I mean "who could??". Last but not least, I'm glad that everyone had an encounter with God on the 3rd day. -Sigh- I don't think I really summed up how fun the camp was but seriously, it was an experience of a lifetime. I hope next year's one is gonna get better and the number of campers will rise from 200+ to 300+. I had a BLAST guys and will always treasure the memories.
I'm going away again tomorrow morning for a couple of days and will be back on Friday night in time to celebrate Saturday's Home-E at my house for Christmas as usual ( every year i mean xP ).
Another few busy days to look forward to and more stuff to do and places to go and peoplez to meet. I guess I'll see ya guys in a few days. My friends are planning to watch a 'Die Hard' marathon at my house now, 'Die Hard 1-4'. I better not keep them waiting for too long. See ya' soon.

flies in a moment

heya fellas, I'm back at home once again after a week of non-stop activites and 4 days of intense scrabbling. Today is the only day I have to rest before I'm off to church camp for four days. -sigh- really didn't expect myself to get #15 in this years WYSC, I knew I could've done better than that but oh well, I'm thankful for what I've got and will be looking forward to more challenges ahead. Congrats to Sean for making into the finals and of course congrats again to Wei Bin for winning this years event. I might be taking part in next years event again, making it my third stint at this event so I really do hope to do better next time round. And now away form the scrabble scene, I'm preparing for tomorrow's camp and I'm supposedly needed to bring formal clothes for graduation from DBS year 2. Oh and I have to buy something for this year's angel-mortal gig though I aint have one yet and it's already 9.50 pm now. I think I'll just pluck something from the past years christams gifts that I still keep at home, hehe I hope my mortal doesn't mind. And of course today is Michael and Maureen's birthdays and I'd like to wish both of them a WONDERFUL happy BDAY!! and thank them for all that they've done for me. I'll give them their prezzies tomorrow in the bus on the way to camp. Ironically, the former leader and assistant leader have the same birthdate... XS
anyhow, it's already 10.27 pm and I have to pack my stuff by tonight so I guess I better start now before it gets too late, have to wake up very early tomorrow remember? I guess I'll talk to you guys in a few days time, and till then...
this is darren khoo saying good night to all my fellow bloggers!
see ya soon.

sorrow all around

hi guys. I'm very sorry to announce that my dear friend Melvin's father who's been suffering from serious cancer for some time now has finally gone to be with the Lord. Me and the gang all feel sorry for him and his family and wish all the best to them. We love ya' man. Melvin's a good guy in case you guys don't know and he's the kinda friend who will always be there for ya' no matter what, a good mentor and most importantly a good friend. We're here for you man. anyway, away from the sorrow, CSS 2007 has commenced today and as expected Ganesh and Nigel are heading the premier division with Kum Zi Peng and Yen Nee leading the Open division. I'm counting on an ex-school mate and friend, Ramaraj to fare well in this competition. He started off slowly with a mere loss of 80+ spread to fellow junior singaporean marcus but bounced back with 2 games with a 500+ score and 200+ spread each. Good Luck man and the countdown for WYSC is 4 days, I'll be leaving on Monday though so I'll see y'all there then. Wish me all the best and I'll do my best for myself and of course team MALAYSIA !!! Ciaoz pplz
