TOC 2009 Day 1
TOC 2009 Day 1 - Poomse Category CompetitionWe have secured 4 golds, 1 silver and 1 bronze. The results are as follows,
1) Ee Jang Team 1 - Gold
2) Ee Jang Team 2 - Silver
3) Sa Jang Team - Bronze
4) O Jang Team - Gold
5) Chil Jang Team - Gold
6) Koryo Team – Gold
This is a good start for day 1. This essentially makes us the overall pattern champions. I'm glad that the pattern teams' sweat and efforts have paid off handsomely.
With this hard earned advantage secured by the pattern teams for us, it is now up to us fighters to walk the rest of our journey to the top. We will show everyone what we have been training for. It starts tomorrow and we'll make our opponents hearts shiver once again together as NTU Taekwondo.

NTU TOC 2009
NTU TOC 2009 is organised by NTU Taekwondo Club, with many help from Singapore Taekwondo Federation. This 3-days highly anticipated taekwondo event is divided into 2 main highlights: pattern and sparring tournaments.This year, the organisers have opened up more categories to encourage more fellow taekwondo practisers to participate. Up to 10 institutions from Junior Colleges, ITEs, Polytechnics and Universities will be pitting their skills against each other under a set of rules and regulations as formulated by the TOC committee, following closely the guidelines from STF.
With some newly imposed regulations, expect breathtaking kicks and punches in the sparring arena. Also, booths will be set up in the sports halls selling taekwondo equipment and TOC 2009 souvenirs at alarming discounted rates.
You are invited to make your way down to TOC 2009 from 27th Feb to 1st March to catch this exhilarating event and cheer on for every fighter.

break from solace
I have a thousand things on my mind to write about, my school work, my commitments, my many million things weighing on my mind. But I have no desire nor motivation to write them down here.I took a break in solace to break away from my hustle and bustle and watched a few youtube clips, and this one melted my heart completely. This video is definitely worth sharing.
Little Connie.

Technological progress
Whilst 2009 has started off as a bleak year with more than 90,000 recorded jobs being lost from the MNC big boys.Still technological progress hasnt taken a back seat.
Samsung's 4Gb chip promises 32GB DDR3 RAMs.
Big boy Samsung has new 4GB chips, two things here: 1) the new chips consume 40% less power than previous DD3 memory modules, and 2) the chips pave the way for 32GB (Byte, not bit) DIMM modules. The first modules will come in capacities of 16GB and 8GB. (3 x 8GB of memory should suffice for Vista or Windows7!)
Solid state drives aren't going anywhere just yet. Western Digital's 2TB (Yes TWO TERABYTES) Caviar Green harddrive is out. Hmm how about 8 x 2TB drives in RAID.
