well, 2 years later, stanley has reprised his role as the superhero! see the difference.. he is so much more serious and stoic. this time he will challenge > 10!!!


as such, we will be organising another movie outing on tues eve. i believe this was our captain (nicholas hong's) initial plan, but he is away diving in tioman with the tiger tamer... so we organise for him. this movie will most proby be in the evening to enable working adults to take part. we will also try to hold it at a centralised location for the convenience of everyone. (centralised = clementi.. joking..). those that are bumming ard and have no work to do, we may be organising another LAN session pending interest.

here is the list of ppl going as of now:

1. stanley (aka, IP Man)
2. kjs
3. tws
4. tyr
5. nick
6.

Don't Let Your Fear Conquer You



During our last Saturday trainings at Sentosa....


One of our sweet girl... not so new now...trying out the "Moses Spirits' ski.


Experiencing difficulty to control the ski, call out panicky ---- "Can I don't do this one??? "


Know what I do??


Enlarged my big eye balls and stared at her, "just step on your right you will go right, just step on your left you will go left" she tried... and go bumping into WFJ group which are doing the boards practice... and harsh WFJ exclaimed loudly --"Hey, you're going round, go go go 前面,前面。。。not here“
Everyone know he is rough like KJS, If you took his words negatively, then you will be demoralised, but if you take it positively you will improve tremendously, cos he cares but in a different way just like your mum when she gave those lengthy nagging...which will make you flare up! but all of you do celebrated Mothers 'Day yesterday...isn't it,


Cherish it when your mum is still around, an opportunity that I will never have for the rest of my life.




That sweet girl tried again, almost give up now, and repeat the same phrase "Can I don't do this one???"


This time stare at her again-raised my voice.. "IF YOU DON'T TRY, YOU WILL FOREVER DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO IT" and soften my voice " Just back paddle and get out of WFJ path and step on your left to go left and your right to go right"



She tried and it works and she went continuously for 4 rounds all the way to the other end of Palawan where Sean Connery and Nicholas Cages are..


Look at your senior, EW, small in size, cannot match TYR or WFJ but she is always positive with comments given by coach, seniors and peers, that why she always came in first...
Do not let your fear overcome you, you have to be brave and positive to embrace it.

Accept and turn all critics into ways of motivating you to do your best.

You people are lucky, right here at NUS, your effort and handwork's are always recognised by our senior management, and also most are from all your seniors and your peers.

Sometimes your peers or seniors might sound harsh but they do cares ... and we succeeded in grooming the next upcoming batch.

In any competition there are always winners and losers, be clean even if you lose you're a good losers, everyone including your worthy, mighty opponent will respect you but if you cheat then your body odour will smell awful for thousands years

We might not win all the times but at least we have won 16 times for overall champs since 1982.

Hey, all my girls are sweet....OK, including Gladys and Melodys.

Newsflash!

Latest newsflash to hit ULC!
tiger hong was seen in a photo with his left leg missing...
this was verified with the picture leaked to the press a few hours ago.
the publishers of the blog are still trying to confirm our sources and to get more information of this latest turn of events.

the ULC blog took the leaked photos and showed it to members of the ULC community to gather some public opinion:

"i heard he was doing it to improve his boarding skills.. perhaps it improves his balance?" -pyj

"is he trying to follow lady gaga? there was a rumour going ard that she amputated her leg for fashion." - kjs




"i think its real, although it can be photoshop-ed, but i think its real, although it can be faked and photshop-ed, but i think its real..... " - JRM
