Yo ppl...argh last week i thought i hav to create a whole new blog bcos there seems to be something wrong bcos i cant see my blog page at all...but anyway i found wads the problem and its pretty dumb...so here i am..=)...so wondering wads tht thing in the picture?....for those of u who go to the hospital often may recognize it as some kind wrist band for the patients...heh its on mine 2 weeks ago...so this is wad happened...i participated for a tkd demonstration 2 weeks ago for a number of sections...namely board breaking and sparring....well i only got to one of them....not even one...during the sparring match....my 'opponent' and i kinda got a little stagnant...so i thought i can make the match a little interesting...i went in to attack him...and the next thing i remember was waking up 15 mins later....heh...the thing is tht when i went in for the attack...the guy did a back kick on me...basicallly a kick whereby a person turns around and kick using his heel...i didnt use a mouth guard at tht point too...so wad i heard from my friends is tht they just saw me lying motionless on the floor....they thought i was kidding around...but they kinda get the message when both my coaches hav to carry me off the main area...the audience at tht point i heard was kinda all have their hands on their mouth...it sounds kinda glorious...but if u noe how it feels like to be in tht position...u wont ever be in tht moment ever....even though i was conscious...i didnt know wad was happening around me...my head was sooo hurting that it feels like its splitting right in the middle....after only about 15 minutes later tht i gain more awareness...and aware of the fact tht my lips is torn on the inside...if some of my sec 3 peace ppl know wad happened to me in sec 3 in class where i tried to b a monkey...yea the same thing happened to my lips except now its on the left side...
then i wasdriven to the hospital emergency care by police....haha the coach actually called the police...but don get shocked by the word emergency...they took like 45 mins b4 a doctor come and check me...did a brain scan on me bla bla bla...lol then i called my mum...first words are..."Mah...Im in the hospital now..."..wahahaha...yea well she freaked out defintely,....oh well wad do u expect...but well im ok now...so its ok...=)

haha....crazy way to start off the new semester...first i got drunk for the first time...then this thing happened...lol my resident assistant....basically the one they call when i got into an accident...told me..."What doesnt kill you only makes you stronger.."...heh how timely is tht huh...=)....but yea..this semester has been a real stretch for me again,...but not as big of a stretch like last semester...this semester kinda tested me heavily on my time management mostly...i go school in the morning..afternoon work...night usually either work out or tkd...then weekend do all hw...darn it a bit siao...

Oh ya....now i realise wads the definition of Business casual...means formal long sleeve clothes without tie...i went for a career fair last week...and i went in polo T and black pants...i thought i should be ok...when i got there...i saw ppl with blazers...i was like "oh damn"...i feel so lucky im a freshman...becos if i actually hav to look for internship...i would probably bury my head in the ground throughout the fair...everyone look so formal..then i went for a business talk by Best Buy Chief Financial Officer and VP Darren Jackson...who is a graduate from marquette...How COOL is tht??..hes a pretty funny guy too...i could dare say tht he started off almost similarly as me..his gpa coming into college was B-...and got a 19 for ACT (Im not sure how much is tht...but he said they gave u an 18 for writing your name...haahahaha...i think tht was a joke...)...he is also quite hopeless when it comes to girls!!...bcos he told a story on how he met his wife in marquette...
But now he is like in the board of trustees for the university and voted for quite a number of titles...and he only about 40...to me he is something like a help to me everytime i get a bad grade...bcos he shows tht grades doesnt mean anything...it helps...but its not as important as personality and spirit...=)....
