Xciting stuff



















it looks pretty Xpensive doesnt it. yeah, the cover isnt real leather, but still, the unique design
is Xsquisite and Xtravagant. It used to be Xtremely priced, but its value had undergone Xplicit Xtrication. how Xcellently Xciting

HAHA. ok, ill stop with the punny Xcapades.OOPS. lol



yeah. went to popular to buy school books. yeah im a nerd. dont worry, aiktak wont be hardcore reading the books......not quite yet. so as my mom was painstakingly scouting for my books, i decided to take a look at the comics section, and stumbled on the greatest looking piece of marvel. had to take a picture. this baby is about 7/6 the size of a regular comic. marvel, not manga.

i flipped through the vast book to delight my fetish. it was pretty....ok... pictures of action figures, history of xmen stuff. my xmen marvel encyclopedia surpassed it in every way, except for aestatic design.. is that how its spelled?


ok, it just looked pretty good. so lets go for the price tag. i grabbed the sample book and slowly turned. braced for the worse.... i couldnt find the price tag. but the fixed price was.... u.s $108!!!

son of a mystique!!!! (is nightcrawler)

yeah. so i showed it to my mom. then she told me to take a look at the copies on sale....ohhhhh

i checked it. $29.90

SON OF A CYCLOPS! (is nathan summers)

what happened to the xmen??! why the great price drop. the xmen have met their greatest nemesis yet. the great reccession, and horrible book content!

to be honest, i was thinking of buying it. i mean, it might not be attractive on the inside, but it has geek written all over.

its like the baywatch people. can they save lives? heck, no! but what they lose in content(seriously) is made up by their good looks

i learnt that by watching the fairly odd parents

yeah. nvr judge a book by its cover... thats the moral fibre of today. too bad my mom didnt say: russ, since uve been such an awesome child since the day u were born,and that u are an ardent fan of marvel, and that dc stinks...... lets buy this for you."

all she said was " it would make a good birthday present. just that its too heavy."

well, its pretty close. m,aybe ill get it on my birthday!

also, spotted a hannah montana annual. great. now she gets an annual. Sweet nibblets!

also browsed through the guiness world records. lots of gross records. longest fingernail woman puts lady deathstrike to shame....

hooked on the love story by tailor swift

after that, my mom asked me whether i wanted to go to contact 123 for a short tour.
contact 123 is like... a centre pioneered by my church . like a lan gaming center, just with strictly online games. and payment works like this

let the volunteers there guide/ coach u with school homework or revision for one hr, and u get free 45mins of computer time.

i went for the cheap trail. pay money, play for an hour. its hols anyway. since it was for the church, why not. it was a pretty smart move to get the children to learn stuff. its a win win situation for them.air con...tuition...online games. yeah it was pretty cool

played wolfteam a bit.then headed off home.

holidays so far

FiNALLY! swimming lessonsareover. passedmy test.one out of the 8 who passed! sorryfor not being modest.lol. yeah, but hard work wasnt the factor. it was because most of the other studentsonly came for an average of 3 out of eight of the classes, so its harder to catch up. anyway, since the count of students that still cant swim is high. our nice coach decided to give us free Xtra lessons. what doest that mean? that means free pool utilisation! free coaching. maybe butterfly stroken ext! also, since clarence, al andi already noe how to swim, water polo wll certainly be in the agenda. its pretty fun, till alvin goes little miss bossy on everyone. screaming"russ! behind the second line!DEFEND! DEFEND!" lol. relax arh al, why so serious?

woots. i swam the length of the pool today. frog stlye, causeif i did freestyle, i wouldnt see the remaining road, and would lose my morale. at least thats my theory. it was prettytiring. how does micheal phelps do it?! i officially respect swimming atheletes 30% more, though the ugly streamlined costumes they wear make them look like swimming koalas, and takes off 5% interest ;)

that also means more breakfast after swimming. better stop eating at macs. i think the cashier recognises me since i go 3 times a week, and uses the power for my psp(oops!). well, as they say, the grass is grrener on the other side, andbesides, cheese fries always makes my day. and yes, there is a kfc just opp. the macs.

just read about an anime convention this weekend. actuallywantedto go for both days, but on sat, i hv smthing on. so i asked al if he could go a bit later. but he's going to coincidently bump into someone on that day..... hmm... i wonder who that iss. (hint:rhymes with firlgriend) if u figure that out, dont blame me. yr just too smart u see. (pleasedont kill me, alvin,please dont kill me, alvin) in any case, i shld be going on sunday, after church, of course. hmm, going to miss aday of freebies. how sad.

lots of people might ridicule/ostracise/insert other big word here ,me saying that i dont watch anime,or readmanga, or go konichiwa everytime i pick up the phone

there is a misconception. excluding the konichiwa, that would just be really lame....

in any case, there is a misconception that i dont watch anime, nor read manga. i do!i just dont complete it/ talk about it. why?

its a chain reaction. because ive only watched some episodes, to some extent, then give up, i wouldnt dare ask or talk about it much. just in case spoilers start spewing, orthe common "u dont noe?" or "now then you noe?" or "u suck" start punctuating peoples' sentences. yes. in my school the last phrase is heard to many times over. lol

same for soccer. im not an ardent fan. i dont know every positions of every player. or the latest buzz that van persie got injured (AGAIN??) . but at least i know the basics, watch some matches, and know that arsenal's main colour, and that the ball is always round in every soccer match ( literally and figuratively speaking).

cause time and tide, waits for no man, and if u dont know the latest about the hot topic, dont joinin the conversation too much, or ull just end up shooting yrself in the foot.
on the bright side, u might get a better shoe size!

yeah, not too deep a conversation now.....or some might go to sleep. hooked on manga now. when i shld be readingthe books i borrowed from the librar. well, off to read!

its 11.11pm now. well, theres always a first to everything

wow. feeling lke a half dead monkey just sitting here, typing. 10.24pm. status:tired

i just woke up from a doze off at my mom's room. was reading my book, and the bed was super inviting, it was like i was plunged in those simmons posturpedic adverds. i remember waking up and asking my mom gibberish. it was total gibberish, like some random questions. thats how tired i am.... i dont even know why im blogging. lol . i wanna sleep

but since im here, i might as well recount my days

all started at spray wars. met up with ryan lim, my cousin, kenna, and hansel.....

russ upon seeing ryan:yoz

ryan( giving the," russ why am i earlier than u...and i bought mineral water" face:
dont buy from that vendingmachine. it rips people off.


right...... i was expecting a hi.

anyways, we went for spray wars, and hansel really unleashed the pseudo maiming gunman during the game.

even during the demo, he ardently screamed to demo the gun. and without turning the nozzle of the water gun( which is just those ironing spraying thingy) he screamed"die! die!" to his dismay the gun just fired vapour........everyone kinda laughed. but i thought that hansel was noble enough to take a stand and be different. though it may involved him starting a battle cry, and firing vapour. we need enthu people like him in youth camp.

spray wars was fun and geniusly thought out. yr"life" is determined by the level of wetness on yr newspaper armour. so if yr newspaper armour tears or is too wet, u will be whistled out. the gameplay was like terrorist vs counter terrorists. therewas three stations.

the vip, the hostage, and the immunity.

i wasnt the same team as ryan or hansel, but kenna was in my team. i should think everyone enjoyed themselves. i can vouch for that, actually.



after that, we went back to church, cause the pub comm/ fundraising had to do a skit on the car wash. while the rehersal, eugene, our camp advisor, talked to hansel's mom, and he might be able to go! thank god! not a figure of speech

also, my cousins stayed over, and i had to reach church early, and my sleep problems manifested again. so nowim feeling blank headed. and since i slept earliwer than my cousins, they felt the full brunt of my sub concious behaviour. apparently, i farted, talked gibberish, and cussed in my slp.lol!my cousins were witnesses. haha

also today, my swimming coach brought in some new thingy
a float, in a sponge shape. it looks abit like the sofy adverts on tv.

and guess what? the floats were exactly where i thought we had to place them. lol
in between our legs. my coache being the crude guy he is:

"this one must put near the l** p*. "

LOL! hes really funny. and , oh dear, must bring in the censorship board, if i keep recounting what he said. lol.

anyways, it was quite gross,i told my my friend to think abt how many people used this thing. the answer was the brand of the float : FEW.
lol

we found out it was like an eight shape.onepart had a greater surface area than the other

elisha and i :sir, which way to position?

coach: which ever part of u is heavier

THATS IT! my coach is the ultimate joker! lol!!!

apparantly, it was meant for balance. it was really fun. trapping the float and balncing,
kinda like the wii board upside down

allright! off to slp. i lazy to ip this time. fine, two lines

this week was hectic

im not a pig
