dreams

2006-09-30T00:55:00.000-07:00

I had the strangest dream last night. One reason why it was so strange was that it was about someone I have not thought about for a really long time. now I can't stop thinking about how weird that dream was. Seeing that person in my dream I guess brought back many memories and reminded me about how much I have grown and how much has changed over the years. What would be the result of this I don't know but I guess I would just put the memory of this dream back into the deep recesses of my mind....like what I do with so many things.

indeed...what dreams may come

history:D

2006-09-27T06:12:00.000-07:00

history is no more fixed and dead than the future..the past is no further away than the last breath you took

it's finally over

2006-09-25T01:42:00.000-07:00

firstly I will like to say.....IT'S FINALLY OVER....PRELIMS ARE FINALLY OVER

the dreaded prelims are finally over. time to live in blissful ignorance for a short while...actually just for 2 days. right not I am just blasting loud R&B music and playing a really brainless game. I guess I can say my papers were ok, had some killers there...really easy ones here...a mixture of both

ok enough about exams, after today's paper finally had some fun. cuz our paper finished super early, me and emmanuel went to parkway cuz emmanuel wanted to buy some stuff. we ended up hanging at coffee beans cuz everything was closed...obviously cuz it was 10am :P after that went to back to school to jam. whole band was there but we haven't played for so long together that was pretty chaotic, but who cares...I had fun:D I think the song that we can play really well together is definitely you and me by lifehouse, must try out other songs. frankly I don't think we will be able to do the music video by guaduation day cuz it's only 3 more weeks after all. hope we will still get a chance to play for fun though.

FINE I AM GOING TO UPDATE U@&#^@#%

2006-09-02T01:15:00.000-07:00

ok so I guess I am finally gonna update after much persuasion. basically nothing much has been happening since I last updated ( if u could call that weird attempt of a poem an update ) have been mugging away or at least trying to. prelims have basically already started with the science pracs just ending last mon. english of course have already ended. wrote this really weird essay titled wealth, basically about how does one measure wealth, kinda hope that the marker likes it :P
I ended with a super corny line from the movie braveheart, I doubt the marker will recognise it anyway.

One hight point though was last thurs. It was teacher's day, and of course since we guys aren't really very good at giving presents, we decided as a class to buy some gifts with everyone contributing a little. bought really fun stuff for the teachers and spent the whole of teacher's day giving them out. u have no idea how difficult it is to find teachers in such a large school. After school went with bryan from a gathering with all the 6-05 dudes. rosyth school was closed so couldn't go and see mrs low :( had lunch with the dudes, it was really great to see them all again. I really love my 6-05 people, even though we are like from totally different schools , we still keep in touch, simply amazing. I wonder whether when we have all grown old and gone out to work, we will still have the yearly gathering and maybe bring our own kids along. Now wouldn't that be something :D We spent such a long time talking that we even nearly forgot about lunch. Kinda sad that I had to leave early though.
Wish u all the best dudes in everything that u guys do :D

watched a whole bunch of movies that have kinda changed my perspective on life. Have u ever realised how fast time flies, how short life actually is. The average life span is only about 80 years, how short is that? And of course with wars, diseases and all that kind of stuff, we actually die alot ealier. Is it worth it to go about life being depressed about everything, stressed up about the smallest detail? Is it worth it to get upset over the smallest words that someone could have said, or the smallest action? Look at the little children, do u think they worry about the clothes they wear? or about how much money they make? they are just going around living their blissful lives ignorant of the troubles of the world that is happening all around them. I guess ignorance offers some kind of bliss.

Life is too short to be spent going around being depressed about everything..too short to be pondering what would have been and what could have been....Life is short..enjoy it...be happy:D

what makes me happy?...happiness of course:D

100th Post

2006-08-12T00:58:00.000-07:00

My 100th Post

When I asked for a solution
God gave me one
I didn't see it

When I wondered how you felt
You told me
I didn't get it

When I got a chance
I didn't realise
Just let it pass

Noticing that you're happy
The sparkle in your eyes
I hope it stays

Comes along a 2nd chance
Before it's too late
I seize it

They say that when you die
your life flashes by
I know mine will....and I'll always remember...

leaving you all with this song...1 last song..enjoy

Let U Go by Ashley Parker Angel

Broken promises
But you don't really mind
It's not the first time
And you know it, don't you know
Tell me why it is you only smile inside
But when you break me into nothing
Don't you know

It's not like I haven't tried
Over and over again
Stupid fights
Wrong or right
Goodbye...

I Remember when you came with me that night
We said forever, that you would never let me go
But here I am again
With nothing left inside
No I don't wanna but I gotta let you go

You're the one mistake
I really didn't mind
So beautiful, unmerciful
It took me down
Too little and too late
So now I know your kind
You fake it easy, just to please me
Don't you know

It's not like we haven't tried
Over and over again
Sleepless nights wrong or right
Goodbye...

I gotta let u go...
It's you...
Theres nothing I can do

I remember when you came with me that night
You said forever

Here I am again
With nothing left inside
No I don't wanna but I gotta
Let U Go

end of week

2006-07-23T07:19:00.000-07:00

HAPPY 130 years VS:D victoria school is now 130 years old. Imagine all those years of victorians, all those years of the vs spirit. I am really thankful that I went to vs. Met many new friends, learnt alot about myself, and I have definitely come out the better man. I will definitely send my children to vs. Wishing u many wonderful years to come vs. Once a victorian always a victorian:D

Had keys workshop on tues at hui juan's house, I wasn't actually supposed to go but my mum surprisingly let me go. Wierd right? luckily I went otherwise it would only have been marcus all by himself, shaunald and cass couldn't come and snd was sick or something. Learnt alot of cool stuff and basically had fun.

Played for ye on sunday. This will be my last time playing then I will be taking a "break" until my Os are over. doesn't really feel like a break frankly cuz I don't feel that I need it. I actually enjoy playing, no real stress and it feels nice to do something for ye. quite sad that I won't get to play for sometime. Well at least I got some time to brush up right? I realised that one problem I have is that I always play a certain way. Thus when a song requires a different style of playing with different rhythm and all, takes a bit of work to get it sorted out. Must really try to get out of this habit and try new ways.

I got a "buddy". It is some program that ye came up with. It's quite interesting. My buddy is louis aka. lao da :D Really friendly and nice guy but strangely I have no idea how to reach out to him. Not really sure what to do, but have to try anyway:D

everyone just needs to simply sit back and smell the roses

bro's birthday

2006-07-14T05:16:00.000-07:00

tues was my bro dav's birthday. he is now the magic 20 :D hahaha. anyway just in case if u're reading this...HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRO...HAPPY 20 YEARS OF AGE!

so like we do every year, kind of like our family traditions for dav's birthday, we go and eat at jerrys. food was great as always and somehow surprisingly better. didn't eat till I was stuffed this time though, didn't want to :P

u know, no matter how much my bros bully me and make me super angry every now and then ( and in some cases every day ) I still love them. I know that despite all the name calling, argueing about clothes and fighting over the stupidest things, that they will definitely be there for me if I needed them. Thats what I love about my bros, they might get super mad at u for a period of time, but that all it is, just for a period of time. After a while everything strangely becomes alright. They might complain once in a while, like how when I need help with chem, they might say something like "don't disturb me" but I know that if I honestly need help and it's not just becuz I don't want to check the tb, they will help me:D so thats my family, 4 bros and 1 dad and 1 mum. 5 guys, a gal and a pizza place ( actually without the pizza place :P )

about 1 and a half more months to prelims, time seems to just pass my by. I bet before I know it, it will be Os. At least chinese will be over soon with listening on mon. So thats 1 paper down, 7 more to go. Well just have to look on the bright side of it right?

have this strange feeling that I did something wrong...and I have no idea what it is...if u do..can u please tell me?

2nd Week of School

2006-07-07T00:39:00.000-07:00

Feeling kinda sad, all the teams that I liked didn't even make it to the finals. First real upset is that brazil didn't even make it to the semi-finals. I can't believe it, I mean.....it's brazil :( 2nd upset was that germany got kicked out, and it was so close yet so far. Got to congratulate italy though as the 2 goals were quite amazing. 3rd upset is that portugal lost to france all becuz some idiot fouled thiery henry in the penalty box * grumble..grumble*

Either then that my week has been relatively good, managed to finish all my hw and pass it all up on time...surprisingly. Strangely it seems that I have turned over a new leaf, must be the Os getting to me:P

Watched superman returns on monday with yane, mark, jj , ben lim and his *cousin*. (don't worry ben..I believe she's your cousin :P ) The movie was quite ok, not really spectacular but it was not bad for an attempt at the superman franchise. I realised that movies nowdays are mostly about looking into yourself and strangely somehow finding the strength within yourself to do what u want with your life. U know....frankly I have no idea what I want to do with my life. I'm basically ok doing anything but I guess someday I have to make a choice. Like my mum tells me, get the grades first then u can slowly decided what u want to do and not be forced into something that u might not want. I guess the main reason why I don't really know what I want is maybe becuz I am afraid of commitment. I am afraid that if I commit to something and it doesn't pull through, I will feel disapointed with myself. So I guess I have to pick my commitments properly and not waste my time committing myself to something that will eventually make me sad. Of course a little guidance here and there will help right? well.....I got more important things to worry about...so I guess this can wait.

back to listening to great emo music

NOOOOOOOOO
GERMANY IS OUT OF THE WORLD CUP :( :( :( :(

the End Days

2006-07-01T05:22:00.000-07:00

First week of school was quite good, got lots to thank god for.
1. hardly got any scolding from teachers for not passing up hw, forgetting to bring tb etc. SURPRISINGLY :P
2. we won the marine quiz, super surprising as I didn't study for it at all. only read through jj's notes
3. thank god for extended weekends:D
4. chinese oral went quite well, or at least it was quite ok. won't need to speak chinese for a long time:D
5. GERMANY IS IN THE SEMIS:D:D:D

u know, I decided to go online only on weekends. Hopefully there will come a day when I am not tempted to go online. I realised that I am not addicted to using the com. I don't really enjoy playing com games, everytime my younger bro playes com for like 4 plus hours, I always think he is crazy. but well....been there done that. As for msn I think I am addicted more to talking to people. I enjoy talking to people, even though it's about brainless stuff that don't make any sense. I just like socializing. I think my 3 favourite things will change a little to be the 3 S: socializing, swimming and stoning in front of the tv:D

Everyone seems to be feeling sad for some strange reason, maybe it's stress from Os, maybe it's becuz spain got kicked out of wc:( when I am feeling sad, the one thing that keeps on popping into my mind, is what on earth am I sad for? life is too good to be sad. even if u have nothing left, he is always there for u, always there to cheer u up, always there to put a smile on your face. Is it worth it to be sad about the things in your life, regardless of how big or small. Is it worth it to be sad about things that u know u can nvr change? U only have such a short time on earth, such a short life span, is it worth it to spend your time feeling sad? Life is too short for being sad. In everything that has happend, just let it happen. One always has to remember that there isn't any point to keep on brooding about what happened, what could have happened and what will happen. Just move along dude:D

be happies- blim

End of Hols

2006-06-25T06:39:00.000-07:00

The june hols are over, fun time is over, msn is over, my social life is over.

With the end of june hols, it's time for serious studying...even though I kinda started serious studying. Have to get rid of all distractions like msn..blogging. Have decided that after today I will not go online..like ever unless it's something important. My com use will now be limited to checking my mail and maybe the occasional blogging once in a while. Frankly I don't think I will blog anymore. SO if any of u want to contact me about something important, I guess u can call me or simply drop me an email. Or if u want, u can simply tag this blog.

June hols has been really fruitful for me, have actually finished ALL of my hol hw ( clapping in the background) which i have nvr done before in my entire life in vs. So this is quite a big achievement for me. RMUN was very meaningful and fun, a great experience. Hanging out with my ye dudes was fun too, love u all:D Basically my june hols were quite well spent. Had a good balance between having fun and mugging. Though I regret not going for sonicfest though, well there's always next year right?

leave all u dudes with this last song, beautiful love by the afters. In case u are wondering, frankly i don't put songs or lyrics on my blog just for the fun of it. ok fun is an imp factor, but I always have a reason for doing things. So I guess u just have to figure it out right:D

beautiful love by the afters

Chill

2006-06-20T06:15:00.000-07:00

u know, even though I have been mugging the entire hols. it feels really good to just take a seat back and chill for a while.

Sunday is great as always. Didn't have bs, instead spent the entire time playing games, super fun. Playing all these wierd games strangely made me remember my pri school days where I first learned how to play Polar Bear. My pri school days were quite fun but we all have to continue living. We all grow old someday, it's just a sad fact of life. Had a talk with my mum in the car about growing old. Age works both ways. It is great to be young simply beuz u are young. U are not expected to be right all the time, u don't have as much responsibilities, u have room to make mistakes. However wisdom does come with age after all. I guess when u are older u can do alot more things. But one things that we must always remember, and that is no matter your age, no matter how old u are, u are accountable to people. A child is accountable to his parents. The parents are accountable to the child. Everyone is accountable to someone else, if not we are always accountable to god. Like Bon Jovi said, no man is an island. We all have a responsibily to someone, no matter what one may think, it's not just your life u are living. Everything u do affects the people around you.

Like making lots of noise in a cinema:D watched she's the man on mon. It's a great chick flick. We probably made quite a few people angry with the small amount of noise we made. The movie was hilarious nonetheless. Kinda speaks volumes about alot of gender issues. You're right paul, it's exactly like 12th Night. Reminds me about another chick flick titled 10 Thing I Hate About You which is exactly like the Taming of the Shrew. Does feel good to chill and be young for a while:D

PS: Carl's Junior ROX:D

Mugging

2006-06-16T02:56:00.000-07:00

After rmun has been pretty much stuck at home mugging. Trying to finish the tons of maths hol hw, hopefully will get it done by this week:D

I'm kinda afraid to go out. Have been receiving lots of invites to go out but I am afraid to ask my mum for permission cuz the answer will most prob be no:( Having Os really sux but well....it's just a passing phase that everyone has to go through, can't wait till it's over. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSIAH:D have fun dudes on the outing and I am always with u all in sprit:P

At least I can listen to good music when I mug, thankfully my ipod is fixed so back to mugging with punk rock:D

Almost by Bowling for Soup

RMUN

2006-06-11T07:20:00.000-07:00

Hi:D haven't been blogging for a really long time as I was really busy with rmun and all. After this will have to work like nuts to prep for Os.

RMUN was really fun. Met lots of new people and really had lots of fun doing crazy stuff like attempting to get USA to pay compensation ( of course not as crazy as getting our country nuked right charles? ) Surprisingly I got something back, didn't really expect to get anything out of it. Both me and julian really didn't expect it. Julian even wanted me to check whether they read out the delegation correctly. Was really unexpected but boy it felt good. Footloose was really good, the band was good, the food was good and the games were super fun. The vs team wanted to sabotage everybody but decided to stop cuz it was getting a bit too violent. Luckily my dare wasn't that bad. Everyone had lots of fun. Learnt a surprising thing too, looks like ri dudes can have fun. But of course no one can have as much fun as the vs dudes ( no offense dudes )

That basically sums up my past week. Missed church camp which I heard was lots of fun. Was actually quite angry about it but after rmun I realise that rmun is a worthwhile experience. And I did have lots of fun too. Well there's always next year right?

:D

End of Chinese

2006-05-31T01:24:00.000-07:00

Firstly I would like to say...WHOOHOOOOOOOO. NO MORE CHINESE FOR 6 MONTHS. U have no idea how good this feels:D With the end of chinese O-levels on mon, there will be no more chinese until next year ( provided that I don't need to retake :P ) The feeling is simply amazing. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

Now is the start of the school hols, won't be much of a holiday. Have lots of work to do considering my pretti bad mid-year results. And as the days draw closer to rmun, the stress starts to pile up. Frankly I have no idea what to expect and the little "difficulties" along the way don't realli help. But well just have to take it in my stride and see what happens.

Went to Oh's wedding on sat and met lots of my old seniors. Mr Oh looked realli happy but I guess it's his wedding day so should be happy. He looked almost unrecognisable in his suit and contacts. I think this is one of the few weddings that I've been to that I actually know the couple, another wedding that I can think of was my cousin's :D Cheo and Nic Lim came in the exact same shirt, it was soo funny.

Tues went to watch Goodbye and Goodluck with khooky and the history class. It is realli a great movie but it is realli deep. Everyone should go and watch it:D It taught me one imp thing, that one should not generalise one's opinions about ppl. Doesn't mean that a man who speaks out against a senator's views is a communist, and it doesn't mean that all the ppl who come from a particular school have the same character and are exactly the same. I realised that schools tend to have a mentality or something that ppl tend to generalise about. I myself am guilty of categorizing ppl that I meet according to the school that they attend. But of course I have been proven wrong again and again. One should not be punished due to infamous acts that their seniors or peers in their schools have done. It is the students that makes the school and not the school that makes the students.

Well...off to mug for Os during this 1 month "break". Nvr seem to realli have a real school holiday. That just how it is I guess...

PS: I think I realli am addicted to punk rock, enjoy the new song:D

AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAR , WISHING U ALL THE BEST DUDE :D

Finally an Update

2006-05-22T03:48:00.000-07:00

The first 2 weeks of may have been taken up by preparation for mid-years exams which weren't very fun. So theres nothing much to say about that. Spent most of the time studying so had kinda a big gap in my social life. I can anticipate that this will definitely happen as life grows closer to the BIG Os :(

Great thing though was that after mid-years had lots of fun. Firstly straight after my last paper went out to orchard with lots of vs dudes both from my class and 4D. Went to watch MI3 and basically hang out. Haven't been to orchard for ages so basically spent like a few hours just walking back and forth on the pretense of buying presents for suresh's birthday and something for Oh's wedding.

Another great thing was that had 3 days of hols straight in a row. Had to go back to school for RMUN meeting though but at least had fun going out to eat lunch after that. I realli don't know anything about parkway :P must get to know the place better since its prob going to be the nearest entertainment or shopping center for the next 2 years of my life (hopefully).

So basically thats what I did after Os, work alot on RMUN :( then the news came that we weren't presenting on sat. I was kinda happy but I felt quite dissapointed becuz had worked quite hard for the presentation on sat and now u tell me that I don't need to present? well...I guess given a longer time has its good points too. Had lots of fun with the RMUN dudes..my wonderful team members. Hanged around to watch the other different presentations since we were there anyway. Met some fun ppl there too. After that went for the RGS chinese drama that dear Mr Cheo dragged me to:D It was better then last year even though last year was not bad. Like jarren says, maybe its becuz I can actually understand what they are saying:P

LEft the drama with lots of thoughts and had this realli interesting talk with bryan on the way home. Realised that like my bro once told me, guys and gals are actually deep down exactly the same, just that they do things and the way they see things are a little different. Ok..maybe not a little...quite alot different. But of course like what they said in the drama, does everything have to be black and white. Does everything realli only have 2 solutions to it, or is life actually alot easier if u just sit down...chill for a while...and look at the bigger picture. There is no need to be so uptight and worried about life, life is short...enjoy it:D

PS: I love this song...enjoy:D

2006-05-16T01:09:00.000-07:00

Catch Your Wave by Click 5

In the middle of the night
That's when you caught my eye
I chased you round in memories
Through the breeze and the trees and you tease me
But hey

The clock's turning around
And you're still playing these games
It's such a waste to bring me down, down, down
Don't bring me down cause

Hey girl,I wanna catch your wave
Hey girl,I wanna drift away with you
Hey girl,you've got an undertow
Hey girl,hey girl, don't wanna let you go

When I turned sixteen
That's when I started to dream
I chased you round in memories
Through the breeze and the trees and you tease me
But hey

Well every princess has her knight
And I'm still in it for the fight
Not givin' in, I'm gonna win, win, win
I'm gonna win cause

Hey girl,I wanna catch your wave
Hey girl,I wanna drift away with you
Hey girl,you've got an undertow
Hey girl,hey girl don't wanna let you go

I'm never gonna let you go

Hey girl, I wanna catch your wave
Hey girl, I wanna drift away with you
Hey girl, you've got an undertow
Hey girl, hey girl, don't wanna let you

Hey girl, I wanna catch your wave
Hey girl, I wanna drift away with you
Hey girl, you've got an undertow
Hey girl, hey girl, don't wanna let you
Hey girl, hey girl don't wanna let you go
I'll never let you go
Alright

in vino veritas

Thank

2006-04-17T06:10:00.000-07:00

This week despite being super tiring..has been a totally awesome week. Have lots of thing to thank god for.

I passed my chem tests:D This was quite a surprise becuz I have nvr passed a single chem test for quite some time. Really thank god that I passed, now I am more motivated to study chem but have to try and get my own notes though.

VS Rox, we won first place in national cross country for both divisions. This is like our 2nd win in a row, how pro is that? Went to turf to cheer the school on like the victorian I am. Was actually thinkin of ponning to go back home and study but decided not to in the end as it would prob be that last cross country I will ever attend. Its quite amazing that VS has so much school spirit, I hope that the spirit will go on to VJ.

The easter outreach was a big success :D With god's help and with all the hard work that everyone put in, everything went really well. The dancers were great, the acting was great, the powerpoint presentation was great, and the dry ice effect was realli cool. I'm really happy that everything went well and I hope that many ppl were blessed. Thanx to all the ppl who made it all possible, especially all the props , make up and costumes ppl. Without u guys nothing would have worked. I looked realli funny with my make-up on, so beaten up and everything. My bro made fist marks on the torn up t-shirt for effect and the fake blookd looked surprisingly real. Had lots of fun doing the entire easter outreach and I hope that we get to do it again sometime.

One more person to thank and that is my fellow untouchable :D Thanx alot for the card. It really made my day dude. Its been really great knowing u. And remember dude, if u need me, I'll be there for u too, forever and a day...always. Stay happy dude and continue to rock on for our lord :D

Always

2006-04-08T23:57:00.000-07:00

Always by Bon Jovi

This romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog just kicked up

Since you left me its been raining
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up

Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

And I will love you, baby...Always
And I'll be there forever and a day...Always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time

Yeah, I will love you baby...Always
And I'll be there forever and a day...Always

If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you

And I will love you, baby...Always
And I'll be there forever and a day...Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you...Always

Always...

I'll be there forever and a day..

THis week has been pretti stressful for me, the hw seems to be piling up, teachers reminding us daily that the exams are in 3 weeks, tests tests and more tests. My temper has been getting worse, surviving school thanx to the daily can of coffee. But well at least there are a few things to look forward to.

Easter is coming soon, which basically means that the days are counting down to the easter outreach performance. Rehersals even though are quite tiring but at least they are fun. Looking forward to it:D

Found the score for Bad Day, now that i don't realli use the com very often due to obvious reasons have resorted to playing to destress. At least have something to try out now:D

When there are good things..there has to be sad stuff. My last BB parade was today as I have "retired" to study for Os. Even though its good to take a vacation from CCAs and use the time to study, I feel kinda sad. Its quite sad to leave the BB family that I have known for the past 3 years of my sec school life. Have met many good friends in BB, will still meet them in school but will miss all the crazy stuff that we do in BB. One day will all look bad and laugh about the punishments that we get, about the crazy games and about the stupid things that we do.But that is all that it will be...memories....

Stress

2006-04-04T07:43:00.000-07:00

Today for some insane reason, I felt very irritated an angry. I have no idea why. Maybe its becuz of being caught in the rain twice in a row....maybe its becuz the work just keeps pilling higher and higher...maybe its becuz I suddenly have a duty to my school...maybe its the frustration about not being able to do anything. I have no clue as to why I am feeling grumpy.

Thanx though for my friends who have been tryin to cheer me up for the past week. I will try to be as happy as I possibly can. Hope that with his help...I can survive this.

I worry I won't see your face...light up again....

SICK

2006-03-31T05:40:00.000-08:00

Feel sick again:( as a result missed sports day which is a good thing cuz its totally useless and yet its a bad thing cuz didn't get a chance to try out the vj pool table:( Good thing from this is that I managed to do quite abit of my work

I worry I won't see your face...light up again

Collide

2006-03-27T05:17:00.000-08:00

COLLIDE-Howie Day

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah

I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide

I'm quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide

Don't stop here
I lost my place
I'm close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find
You and I collide

You finally find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide

I somehow find...u and I...collide

An act of faith

2006-03-23T00:30:00.000-08:00

Today something realli struck me, I'm sure u have heard the phrase that love is an act of faith. I've said it lots of times too but I don't know why but suddenly today it realli struck me how true it is. To love your family, to love your friends, to love your galfriend or your wife, u nvr realli know whether u will be loved back. Simply becuz it is impossible to know what the other is thinkin. Yet u still love the other person believing that they love u in return. How true is this with my beliefs. Love in god, a person whom I have nvr seen yet I call him my best friend, a person I have nvr heard yet I believe that he talks to me. A person that u can't even touch yet he is always there, loving u back. Love realli indeed is .... always has been...and always will be...an act of faith.

HW

2006-03-23T00:16:00.000-08:00

Its now 12.16am at night. In case u are wondering why I am up so late its cuz for the pass 5 hours I have been doing my history hw non-stop so sorri to all the ppl whom I didn't reply to cuz I was mugging:P I suddenly feel a great sense of achievement cuz I like did quite alot of work in such a short period of time. NOW taking a well-deserved break by blogging:P

To blog about my mar hols, my mar hols weren't very much of a holiday. Spent most of my days in school. Monday went to buy stuff for BB BBQ.

Tuesday went to rj for rmun onference. I think the traveling time from school to rj was longer then the briefing. Then left to buy stuff for history bbq with john, jabez , charles and khooky. Had lots of fun shopping for food. Then left for school to go for emaths class. After that went for the history bbq. The food was realli great..especially the chicken wings and fish with all the exotic spices. Had lots of fun cooking too:D

Wed had amaths tuition..Thurs had Chinese tuition. I kinda have lots of tuiion:P Fri went for BB camp.

Spend the whole of friday and sat morning hiking in pulau ubin. WAs a great experience hiking in the pitch black jungle with only god to put your trust in. I was realli freaked out cuz its realli realli dark. But with all my other comrades in arms around me and the belief that god is with me, managed to pull through. It was realli cool actually walkin in the jungle. Sat was the BB bbq, thankyfully there was enough food for everyone, realli have to thank god for that cuz frankly I didn't think it was enough. Everyone said the bbq was the hightlight of the camp:D even though I didn't get much to eat cuz was busy making sure everything went well, it feels pretti great to see the satisfied looks on the boys faces when u ask them whether they enjoyed the bbq. It makes all your effort worth it.

Sunday learned that I am going to act in the easter play for the easter outreach at my church. Hopefully I will be able to commit to it, god please give me the strength to persevere on.

The Great Well

2006-03-16T05:28:00.000-08:00

I finally figured it out...hopefully it's correct. U have no idea how long I have been trying to get it..can only hope. Someday We'll Know won't we:P

Some wells are small...some wells are big
Some wells have buckets...some wells have pumps
To go to the nearest well...or the furthest well
Does it matter

Some wells are shallow...others are deep
Some wells are filled with life giving water...some are filled with acid
To go to the nearest well...or the furthest well
Does it realli matter

Sometimes u feel as if he is talkin to u
Through someone else
Is it your imagination
Or is he realli talkin to u

What if what he "says" actually makes sense
Maybe the well isn't all that bad
Maybe this is the only well that u will come across your walk through the desert
Maybe if u do not drink..u will die from thirst
Maybe u will nvr get another change to drink from a well ever again

Maybe the well isn't that bad after all..all depends on how u look at it:P...

March Hols

2006-03-11T06:17:00.000-08:00

This week has been quite an ok week. Watched Army Daze, which is a really good play, on tuesday. Its exactly like the movie except the jokes are more up to date and still as funny:D Watch Braveheart again. I think I will nvr get tired of that great show, it nvr fails to blow me away everytime.

Next week is the march hols, won't be much of a holiday for me as I still have to go to school close to everyday:( but at least can wake up a bit later so thats one good thing. Hopefully will be able to accomplish something this hols

Was clearing my drawer when I found a music cd that was compiled by a friend. Its has lots of realli good songs so transfered them all onto my com. Feels realli good to just sit back and listen to great music:D

if god was a dj...and life is the dance floor...love is the rhythm...and u are the music

ARMY DAZE

2006-03-08T06:23:00.000-08:00

ARMY DAZE ROX:D

GREAT WEEK

2006-03-06T04:25:00.000-08:00

This weekend has been realli fun. Firstly went for piano lesson at dorreen's hosue on fri. Learnt quite alot on how to play keyboard nad hopefully will be able to continue improving. Me and shanald met hui juan for lunch(I still don't believe that u don't eat roast pork or chicken skin shanald:P)Then went to dorreen's house. Her house is simple but at the same time, realli nice. The chairs are super comfy, u can like sink into the cushions:D marcus came later on but sandra and cassandra couldn't make it. cassandra had something on while sandra fell sick. Get well dude:D

Sat was quite fun too, got lots of badges during awards day. Even though I didn't get promoted, I don't realli feel very sad for some strange reason. I mean I kinda feel a bit dissapointed but not sad. Maybe all the talk about being happy about life has realli gotten to me:P Went to church for bs training. Learnt quite alot about coping with conflict. I have also realised that I'm not angry about the thingy anymore, I mean I have kinda reached a stage where I realli don't care. Feels good:D

Sun was realli fun. First, worship was realli amazing. U know it is simply breathtaking to see so many people worshiping as u play knowing that god is speaking to them. I felt realli happy that there are so many people who are growing closer to god. BS was quite fun too as always, managed to get my point across and me and the guys talked alot too. Not was much as last bs but still quite alot:P After YE had a jamming session with my army, the wonderful sec 2s together with ben, jon and char. char sings realli well and so does marcus which is quite surprising as he is a guy:P Had lots of fun even though it was kinda chaotic.

One thing to be sad about though is that all my long hair is gone:( was forced to cut by pressure from school teachers and my mum. So now i have no more long hair and my hair is so short that it looks like I am an army boy:( I hope is grows back

Meant to Live- Switchfoot

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bent for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

[Chorus]
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

[Chorus]

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life, yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

This is for u dudes who are feelin down, remember to stay happy always for the joy of the lord is my strength:D

End of Busy Week

2006-02-24T23:37:00.000-08:00

Heard that switchfoot is coming in nov and thats after my Os so I hope that will be able to go and watch:D

LOVE

2006-02-18T19:12:00.000-08:00

Hi, I actually wrote this a realli long time ago, but didn't really get round to posting it. To commemorate Valentines day and basically cuz I think this essay deserves a post, I am actually gonna post it. Enjoy:D

Written on 14/11/2005

Now I have absolutely nothing to do...so decided to write this just cuz I'm quite bored.

LOVE

It is said that love can both make and break a person. It can bring 2 people closer together, cause a family to become more bonded together, can bring self-esteem and touch the lives of people. Yet at the same time love or love related issues can result in depression, suicide and surprisingly can turn good friends into enemies over night.

People do crazy things for love. Parents are willing to risk their lives for their children. In the movie a Knights Tale the hero was willing to bring himself close to death or at least injure himself very badly in order to prove his love for his lady. People are willing to spend large amounts of money to buy things for their partner, all in the name of love.

What exactly is love, what is this feeling inside us that can cause people to risk everything, can cause heartaches and yet at the same time can cause happiness, can both create and destroy friendships? Love for family, love for material goods, love for spouses, is it all the same? If love can be both good and bad, then why don't we just abandon it altogether? The simple reason why it is impossible is simply because love is a part of our lives, it is like an important organ within our bodies, something that if removed can change our lives forever. So thus it is something that we just have to live with and embrace.

Glory of Love- New Found Glory

Busy Week

2006-02-17T03:58:00.000-08:00

Haven't had been able to blog for a really long time as this week has simply been crazy for me. I have been studyin like crazy for this entire week as all my test were all during this week.

Thanx to john,emmanuel and jeremy for the chocs. Tasted great dudes:D
U know, life is like a box of merci, even though u nvr know what u gonna get like a normal box of chocolates, u can still make choices. Like a box of merci..hahaha

life is like a box of merci

Being sick sux:(

2006-02-10T05:09:00.000-08:00

Well I have been sick for 2 days already. Staying at home is really boring, got nothing much to do. Managed to complete most of my HW so thats quite good. And I have spent the rest of my time playin lots of guitar:D Have learnt lots of new songs.
Wonderwall by Oasis, Lyla by Oasis, Be Like That by 3 Doors Down, Collide by Howie Day. Now my fingers are kinda sore from playing:P but its definitely worth it.

if I could be like that, I'll give anything, just to live one day...in those shoes

ANGER

2006-02-10T03:58:00.000-08:00

I AM REALLI ANGRY...CAN'T SAY WHY
I CAN"T BELIEVE THIS HAS MADE ME SOOOOOO ANGRY
ARGHHHH
HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN
*sigh*

Being sick sux

2006-02-08T21:37:00.000-08:00

Normally I don't have the luxury of time to blog during the weekdays. But now I can becuz I am stuck at home because I am sick. This sickness that I hvae is super wierd becuz I just woke up suddenly in the night and started vomiting for no reason at all. Then when I woke up this morning I had red sports all over my face. Went to see the doctor and he said I had some viral flu thingy and thus I have mc for 2+ days. This sux as I am stuck at home doing absolutely nothing:( . So I have decided to blog about my past week.

This week was great besides the fact that I am now sick. Watched a really great movie titled Be With Me by Eric Khoo on tues. It was a really sad and touching movie...basically about love. I felt like crying during the movie. It is basically 3 different stories about the lives of different people. I brought back many lessons from the movie and one that I will always remember is about happiness.

They say that happiness makes the world go round. Happiness is an important part of our everyday life. When life becomes depressing, when living becomes a chore, is there still such thing as happiness? It all depends on how we look at it. We might have lost a love one, we might have lost everything that we hold dear. But yet, heaven play a cruel trick on us and somehow we are the only ones left standing. Do we continue living on? Do we continue going about our day even though we have nothing to live for? There is always something to live for, there is always some form of happiness in this dark and cruel world that keeps us going. We might not realise it in our sorrow but there is always something that makes life worth living. Whether it is for someone, or to do something for someone like cooking for example. There is always something to live for....if u search hard enough for it. Isn't it amazing that there are people who in this world who have close to nothing to live for, and yet they are still happy. Yet there are some who have so much in life, and yet are still not happy. There is no need to pursue happiness, it is always there, u just need to know where to look. Sometimes it is even closer then u think. So remember always to be happy, and stay happy.

be happy and stay happy

Sweet 16

2006-02-06T15:20:00.000-08:00

This week has been a really great week. Went for a YE BBQ on sat. Met 2 new ppl:D One is charissa's friend Sean, he's from acjc and quite a nice guy. He looked quite lonely as he didn't know anyone else so I talked to him. He's quite friendly and he is good at pool.He was quite concerned that my younger bro was from barker and told me to watch him closely which I will definitely do. thanx for the advice dude:D Met a guy named joel, was told that he was from st.james even though I don't remember seeing him before:P didn't really talk to him very much. Ate lots of food at the BBQ becuz we had to finish the food. So me, kenneth and ernest ended up having to eat alot. Had lots of fun playing wierd games and just sitting around talkin.

YAY!!!! MY BIRTHDAY WAS YESTERDAY. I am now officially 16 years old, feels really great. Can finally legally play pool and no more stupid ratings to stop me from watching great movies like Kingdom Of Heaven which I missed the last time becuz it was rated NC16. Feels really good:D

Went to church to give oranges around the neighbourhood and surprisingly lots of people knew that yesterday was my birthday. I wonder how they found out. The ye gals baked for me the most amazing cookies that I have ever tasted. My bros and I finished it in like 20 min becuz it tasted SOOOOOO good. Thanx alot gals and your cookies are great so don't stop baking them:D My godmother baked oreo cheesecake which I ate today and it tasted great as always. Untee suet fong is a really good baker, her cakes and bread just taste really good. Got a really nice card from the YE, THANX GUYS. My cell group even bought me my favourite drink, coke:D 2 cans of nice fizzy coke. Thanx to all the great people who have wished me happy birthday, u guys really have made my day:D

Turning 16 has made me realise how fast time flies, I feel like it was just yesterday when I was still in Pri 6 at Rosyth School with not a care in the world. Now got that 4 years have passed. I have really grown alot both physically and in my walk with god.

Feels really great to be 16:D

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVERYBODY

Spent my chinese new year holidays bonding with my mum's side of my family at cameron highlands. I have never seen so many strawberries in my life. Had lots of fun with my cousins playing soccer, playing FIFA street, playing mahjong and eating. I also managed to read this really great book that my older bro jon brought along. It is titled The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. It both a very inspiring and interesting book about a boy who finds his meaning in life. You should read it. One part of the book really struck me

What is love? It is the falcons' flight over the sands. Because for him, the desert is the green field from which he always returns with game. He knows the rocks, the dunes and the mountains, and the desert is generous to him....

What is love? Love is the soul of the World, because it is made of love....

Why is one loved? One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving...

where is the love

Sad Life

2006-01-25T23:58:00.000-08:00

Today I am feeling really sad, due to a whole variety of reasons. Firstly I have this feeling that I let someone down. Can't really say who as it isn't really confirmed, just this feeling that I have.

I watched Hotel Rwanda yesterday, it is a really good movie but it is really sad. I actually felt like crying during the movie. The movie made me think about lots of things too....

Genocide= the ingenious plan of a genius to kill thousands. All the recorded genocides in history, from the holocaust to the killing fields of Cambodia, people died in their thousands and sometimes in their millions. To be able to come up with a plan like this in order to kill so many people in such a short period of time is certainly the mark of a genius. But why would a genius use his brilliant mind to kill so many people? There is no justification for genocide, it is not only an inhuman act, but it just doesn't make sense. In carrying out genocide you kill a significant number of people, some of there people are intelligent and skilled In other words, genocide kills off thousands of the brightest minds in a country. Even if you don't look at it from a moral point of view, it is both economical and political suicide.

Everything has both its bad points and good points, including democracy. The problem with democracy is that in order to carry out a very important "operation", you will need everyone’s vote. Time is wasted getting the votes and the votes might be against carrying out the "operation", no matter how important it is. Thus it might actually take a few years before the decision to carry out the "operation" is approved and by then the "operation" could have been rendered useless. But there is also definitely no doubt at all that democracy also bring many good points as well.

I have been thinking about the movie the entire day and it has really made me very depressed. There is simply no explanation why there is such cruelty among men in the world. But as mentioned in the movie, are we to just go " oh, how horrible!" and go back to eating our dinners? We can always make a difference, whether by simple prayer for a better world, or by actually going out to help people, it all makes a difference. People ask " where is the love?" , it is in the hearts of men for as long as the true meaning of love remains in the hearts of men forever, there will always be hope.

I LOVE THIS SONG

2006-01-23T06:17:00.000-08:00

He spends his nights in California
Watching the stars on the big screen
Then he lies awake and he wonders
Why can’t that be me
Cause in his life he is filled
With all these good intentions
He’s left a lot of things
He’d rather not mention right now
But just before he says goodnight,
He looks up with a little smile at me,
And he says,

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that,
what would I do,
What would I do

Now and dreams we run
She spends her days up in the north park,
Watching the people as they pass
And all she wants is just
A little piece of this dream,
Is that too much to ask
With a safe home, and a warm bed,
On a quiet little street
All she wants is just that something to
Hold onto, that’s all she needs
Yeah!

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do

I’m falling into this, dreams,
We run away

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes

If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do
Falling in
I feel I am falling in, to this again.

2nd week of school

2006-01-12T23:48:00.000-08:00

The 2nd week of school have just passed. I haven't had the time to blog becuz of school work and lots of other stuff. I think this year I will only be able to blog once a week or something like that:(

I spent the whole of Hari Raya stuck at home studying for chem and physics test:( I could have gone out but decided not to in order to study for the stupid test. Lots of thanks to the sec 2s who invited me but sorri I couldn't make it dudes.

Thursday was BB day, had command parade in the morning. I was feeling quite stressed, must have been stage fright:P It was raining so had to do the "parade" in the hall:( Everything went pretty well and I didn't mess up any of the commands even though I think my voice was a bit horse after that.

I can't wait for sunday, sunday is the best day of my week becuz sunday is ALWAYS a very fun day:D

And one more very important thing. I decided to do both keys and BS. I was quite surprised that my parents allowed me to do both. Hopefully I won't be super stressed out.

I'll be there for you- Bon Jovi

First Week of School

2006-01-06T04:51:00.000-08:00

My first week of school has been quite ok. Its great to see all the familiar faces again:D My teachers are all the same with a few slight changes. O level year so first day of school alreadi got HW. I even have 2 tests next week so have to study over the weekend:( Sweet 16 coming in around 1 months time and I can hardly wait. It feels great to be nearly 16 but I don't think it will make much impact in my life either then the fact that I can play pool now:D

A very amusing incident happened to me this week. Can't realli say very much except that like I always say...
I'm Not Lookin

3 Doors Down

2006-01-05T00:45:00.000-08:00

I realli love this song, have been listening to it for this entire week:D

Here Without You- by 3 Doors Down

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same

All the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreamin' of your face
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight, there's only you and me.

The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go.

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time

I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl, there's only you and me.

Everything I know, and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it won't take away my love
And when the last one falls, when it's all said and done.
It gets hard but it won't take away my love

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time

I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl, there's only you and me

if I could be like this

MERRY CHRISTMAS

2005-12-25T21:52:00.000-08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY...AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR

Christmas this year has been realli great. It all started on the 23rd with the performance at paragorn. Finally what I have been preparing for so long was finally going to happen. At first it started to rain and we prayed realli hard that the rain would stop and it did:D all thanx to god. I was realli nervous but the sight of all my cousins coming to support me and my bro made me confident. The performance went realli well and hopfully managed to touch the hearts of our audience.

On Christmas eve, went for another practice at church in preparation for the outreach at church. Went to Holland V after that to eat. Everyone took realli long to decide what to eat so me and my bro said forget it, lets just go and eat BK and soon enough every ate BK too:D HD lots of fun just eating and talkin. Poor martin had ketchup and barbecue sauce all over his hair. In the evening went to my aunt's house for Christmas eve dinner. The food was amazing and the drink too. The eggnog was really good but my mum stopped me from takin anymore cuz she said I looked a bit red:P I didn't realli believe her cause I was red the entire day due to fatigue and I definitely do not turn red so easily. Everyone had a short performance and had lots of fun singing carols and just being together with family.

On Christmas morning, went for Christmas lunch with my dad's side of the family. The food again was realli good, never ate so much salmon in my life and the turkey was amazing. Ate so much then had to go to church to practice for the outreach. I ate so much that couldn't realli dance properly but in the end luckily managed to digest it all before the actual performance. I was realli nervous mainly because I had to give a testimony but I prayed that god will help me to keep calm and in the end managed to pull it off smoothly. The performance went realli well mainly cause we danced our hearts out for god. I'm realli happy that many people were touched by our performance. At night went to celebrate and ate dinner at Moses' dad's cafe. The food was realli good ( trust me...its REALLI good), and had lots of fun too. Spent most of the night playin cards and just talkin. Tried to teach melissa how to play Bridge but didn't realli work out:P Had lots of fun though.

I realli love my youth group, they are a realli fun bunch of guys from the crazy sec1s..hahaha to the realli cool adult leaders who guide us through our christian life. Its realli great that everything that I have prayed for last year came to pass. Our youth group has realli bonded together very well. Maybe one of these day...when I go for YE...there will no longer be the distinction in the seating between guys and gals. Everyone will be sitting together havin fun, growin together in christ. The first step has alreadi been, now just have to continue to press on.

My christmas wish this year is that YE will grow even more closer together and grow more in Jesus.
Wishin everyone...A...VERY..MERRY..CHRISTMAS

Gossip

2005-12-21T22:52:00.000-08:00

Gossip...it is said that words can either make or break a man. This is my policy when it comes to gossip.

1. If it doesn't concern me in any way, I don't want to know

2. If it does concern me, if its not important, I don't want to know

3. If it concerns anyone who is related to me, I want to know depending on the importance

So there it is..my 3 simple rules..but of course if it concerns me I obviously want to know.

End Of Camp

2005-12-19T03:35:00.000-08:00

Youth Camp is over and it was an amazing experience. Even though it isn't suppsoed to be a fun camp, IT WAS REALLI FUN. The twins and shaunald were SOOO funny.....way to go sycamore:P The most important thing was that I managed to bring back many important lessons about god.

The gap, what comes to your mind when u think of a gap? A big wide empty space? A bottomless chasm between 2 overpowering cliffs? A space between the living and the dead? Through out the entire camp " the gap" kept coming to mind. I imagine it as a big bottomless space between 2 cliffs. And I imagined that to stand in the gap was to stretch yourself over that big empty space, like a bridge. To be a witness to the world...to stand in the gap between the living and the dead...to be that bridge.

The sermons throughout the entire camp were realli good. The testimonies that were shared were amazing too. My bro's testimony brought tears to my eyes and I cried and cried and cried. Just thinkin about what he said made me cry. The sermon on the 3rd day realli striked a chord in me. U know the incident that esther shared about the wedding dress, the chances of that happening are like almost nothing. It is impossible to try on a wedding dress that u have just seen and yet be able to fit in it without any adjustments. It is realli amazing.

The dance practises throughout the camp were realli tiring but realli fun:D Managed to accomplish everything, and the dances look realli good too. Something to realli thank god about.

I can't wait for the next YE camp......

Camp

2005-12-13T04:47:00.000-08:00

Guess what..I am off to camp again. But this time is will be a fun camp, cuz it is my church youth camp. Youth camps are always fun. This one is to prep for CCIS though so it will prob be not as fun as other youth camps. I hope it will be fun nonetheless.

Had another dance prac today. Its a good thing that everyone managed to brush up on "joyful, joyful". And it looked realli good too. My arms hurt like crazy, they hurt so bad that I had to wear sleeveless to prevent them from hurtin so bad. I'm still not that good at the rap part for the song but am improving:D

Watched Kingdom Of Heaven last Sunday. It was a great show with lots of meaning behind it. I am suddenly very interested about the crusades for some wierd reason. But the one thing that kinda striked me was the chivalry. Chivalry is something that one hardly sees in this current age and time. But it is still all around us. When one opens a door for a lady that he hardly knows. When a guy helps one of his frineds hold her stuff while she is busy ( and no, they are not attached ). All these simple actions and many others are what chivalry is all about. Helping a lady who in distress, for the simple fact that it is the gentlemanly thing to do, even though u never liked the person. That is chivalry.

it ain't pretti- INXS

Christmas

2005-12-08T22:28:00.000-08:00

Christmas is coming soon..WHOOHOO:D How i know this is due to a whole lot of events.
1. Setting up of the christmas tree( lots of fun )
2. Being sent to do SGB duty( tons and tons of can food...have never seen so much food before in my life)
3. Advertisements on buying gifts in the newpapers( haven't started buying gifts yet:P)
4. Christmas lights around orchad road( realli pretti )
5. Everyone is becoming stressed out over the dance (chill dudes)
6. Mum going to do chirstmas shopping ( couldn't tag along cuz of SGB duty:( )
7. Class barbecue coming soon ( can't wait )
8. Cell barbecue ( haven't realli planned for it yet..can't wait either )

I can hardly wait for chirstmas:D:D:D

Judgemental

2005-12-07T02:07:00.000-08:00

Last week made me realise something about myself that I have never noticed before....or at least I used to not realli notice that it is actually a problem. I am a very judgemental person....and I hate it. I tend to have this image of a person either from the first meeting, others opinion of them or due to other factors. Sometimes I have never even talked to or actually met the person and I already have an image of them. Of their character and how they are like. U know what this is called, its called being judgemental. I know that its wrong to judge someone and its a sin, but I just can't help it. I sometimes notice things about someone and a judgement is just formed in the blink of an eye. Now that I think about it, I feel really bad about it. I feel really bad that even before I even have a chance to actually get down and talk to these people that I come across, I already have an image of what they are like in my mind. And the worse thing is, its very difficult to get this image of them out of my head.

To all, please include me in your prayers. Pray that I will not be so judgemental about people. Thanks

this is how u remind me...of what I realli am

Home sweet home:D

2005-12-05T05:59:00.000-08:00

I am FINALLY back home from camp. Just camp back from camp temasek which is a bb national camp. A 5 day camp within an army camp with over 800 campers. Did a whole lot of fun stuff:D I'm not going to talk about the whole camp, just the fun stuff.

Did paintball which was one of the most fun activities. My team won and had so much fun shooting the paintballs too. The adrenaline rush was amazing.

During the birthday bash, dream factory came to perform. I rem them coming to my school to perform for a concert before during a concert oganised by NET. They are a realli good plan, the worship was amazing:D Their own songs were also not bad.

Made lots of friends in the camp. The beds were also super good and the toilets were not bad also. Tried wearing contact lens and it managed to work out. But I need to wake up like 5 min earlier to put them on though. The food was not bad though...had worse. This camp was one of the best I have ever een too, and not even a single push up either with close to no pt:P

Well in the end, it is good to be home. When I came home, I went to bathe stratght away. Spent over half an hour in the bathroom scrubbing myself. Went then to get a nice cold drink, had a great dinner, and am now sittin in front of a rectangular box.

home sweet home

Fun Fun Fun

2005-11-27T06:18:00.000-08:00

My last half of the week has been quite fun, actually it has been lots of fun. My younger bro has gotten back his results, I think he did quite ok but my parents aren't realli very happy about it. We went out to celebate anyway and I had one of the best steaks I have ever tasted. That's red meat for u man.

Went to help out at sentosa on fri with the p6-ses. I think my blog manager has alreadi said something about that:P We played the same game that we played last year..the death island one. So I basically knew all the answers. My group were made up of me, darren, louis, charissa ( my blog manager in case u haven't noticed yet), roxanne, hannah and 2 gb gals. My crazy group was realli fun. I'm quite sad that my dad didn't let me stay over:( Otherwise could prob have more fun

On to sat, had dance prac. Was quite tiring but worth every effort man. I still suck at turning:( Went to IKEA for lunch with amanda, shu ,charissa and saul. Ate the swedish meatballs, they are the most amazing thing I have ever tasted. Learnt alot of interesting stuff....hahahaha

Today was my confirmation day..whoohoo. It felt realli great but I look realli old in a white shirt and black pants with dress shoes. Went out to celebrate with my dad and grandpa. Sadly dav and jon weren't there to see me:(

All in all...my week was great

primary six camp

2005-11-26T06:49:00.000-08:00

I HAD CAMP YESTERDAY AND IT WAS FUN FUN FUN!

because CHARISSA WAS THERE. HAHAHAHAHA

(this is written by charissa anyway)

PSLE Blues

2005-11-24T05:40:00.000-08:00

My little bro did quite ok..or at least I think he did quite ok. I hope he gets into the school that he wants...even though frankly I don't think he has any idea what school he wants to go to:P I realli hope he has gets into a sec school where he is able to have fun and turn into a better person. All I can do right now is pray for him and just leave it all up to god. Frankly I hate havin this feelin..this feelin of hopelessness and sadly I get this feelin quite often:(

U might not have any idea what I'm talkin about but I have this problem...isn't realli a problem actually. And for this problem I have tried every solution that I can think of, I have even actually asked for advice and I still can't think of any proper solution. Again this feelin of hopelessness:( So thus I have to just sit back...and watch the "show"...or just wait for what ever is gonna happen

hope is what dreams are made of

PSLE and end of boring-ness

2005-11-23T20:40:00.000-08:00

I just realised something, actually lots of things. My hols is starting to surprisingly less boring. Canoeing is actually super fun even though it is super tiring. Today spent the entire day playin keys and it was actually fun, about 2 years ago I was thinkin I would never play for fun at all. I think it started getting fun since I stopped takin the exams:D..hahaha. It could also be the wonderful people I was jammin with..thanx a million guys:D

tmr my younger bro is gettin his psle results and I am kinda scared stiff for him cuz I realli want him to do well...no matter how much he irritates me..I realli love him for he is my bro after all.

one kind of love..brotherly love

Bored

2005-11-21T18:23:00.000-08:00

I can't believe I'm saying this but my holidays are actually getting boring. I don't know why:( All I have done during my hols is go swimming almost everyday and stone. I have no idea what to do. I thought that hols are supposed to be fun and yet I am feeling bored.

At least today wasn't as boring, went for kayaking lesson and that was the first time I wore a skirt. Relax man, I wore a canoeing skirt which is the thingy that I put over the cockpit of the kayak:P

I realli hope that the rest of my hols won't be as boring as the last 2 weeks

Swimming

2005-11-16T06:36:00.000-08:00

One of my loves in this world, one hobby that I have enjoyed doing, it is swimming. I LOVE swimming. Now that it is the holidays, I swim like 3 or 4 times a week. Swimming has a whole lot of good points about it. Most importantly, it turns me brown:D I become more tan ( luckily I don't turn super red like my bro ) and my hair turns brown too. Mum tells me that its because of the chlorine in the pool that's why my hair turns brown, so swimming becomes like a natural hair dye:P Another good thing about swimming is that it allows me to just chill out and relax. Also provides me with lots of time to just simply think and clear my head about stuff. U will be surprised about how much time I can spend just stoning in the pool thinkin about life.

Swimming in the pool....playin pool..that's the way life should be

This is how u remind me...

2005-11-13T04:41:00.000-08:00

I love this song

How You Remind Me- Nickelback

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking
I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream "are we havin' fun yet?"

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause livin' with me must have damn near killed you

This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken for handing you a heart worth breaking
I've been wrong, I've been down, been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream "are we havin' fun yet?"

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'

This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry, I was waiting on a different story

A Both Good And Bad Day

2005-11-13T04:28:00.000-08:00

Today was one really CRAZY day for me. It all started in the afternoon. Was driving to church for worship prac with my oldest bro driving me. I had a huge brush with death. My bro turned into the wrong lane and was driving against the incoming traffic for almost 45 seconds. My heart stopped as I watched cars nearly crash into us. My bro turned the car just in time and managed to drive in the right direction of traffic. For those who drive u know how dangerous this is. I really thank god that me and my bro were safe and did not get into an accident. I was super scared, the first thing I did when I got out of the car was have a can of coke to calm my nerves.

Worship when quite well and I played quite alright, at least didn't make many mistakes. I really need to try and prac playin chords more often:P

Then when I reached home after church, I ended up locked outside my home as my mum forgot to bring the house key. So in the end we called my bro to come and open up the gate for us and thank god again that he was just leavin for home when we called him:D

Thank God for everything

Someday is FINALLY here:D

2005-11-09T22:53:00.000-08:00

I have finally found the chords for the song "Someday We'll Know", might not be as good as the score itself but good nonetheless. This has really made my day. Thanx to all the people who have helped me in my search:D
celebrate good life come on:D

Someday We'll Know

2005-11-07T06:50:00.000-08:00

All the below information shown is to prove the truth about the phrase "Someday We'll Know"...enjoy:D

Someday we'll know:
1.If love can move a mountain- there is this movie in which the hero in order to save his gf who is trapped in the mouontain uses dynamite to blow a hole to save her. He starts an avalance causing the mountain to "move".

2.Why the sky is blue- The blue color of the clear daytime sky results from the selective scattering of light rays by the minute particles of dust and vapor in the earth's atmosphere. In other words this means that the sky is blue cuz the shorter rays of light which is blue are scattered causing it to appear blue.

3.Why samson loved delilah- people say that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder so one can never really know. Thus the best explanation is simply that delilah was "beautiful".

4.one day I'll go dancin on the moon- during the first moon landing in 1969, the first man who stepped on the moon looked like he was dancin in the video of the first moon walk.

someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for u- Someday We'll Know by New Radicals(I realli love this song)

2005-11-05T01:48:00.000-08:00

Hadn't been able to update for quite some time cuz my com is kinda fried and I finally manged to fix it...for a while at least. On thursday went to the esplanade library to look for the score of "Someday We'll Know" and sadly it was closed. I forgot that most national librarys are closed on public holidays. But at least it wasn't a waste of my time, HMV rox and I can't believe I spent so much time in the store just lookin at music and cds. Thanx to mel for takin the time and everything:D

I went swimming like 5 days in the week and am now pretti much quite tan. Managed to play squash yesterday too:D I love playin squash cuz its a super fast game and is realli exciting. So thus another week of the wonderful holiday has just passed and 7 weeks left to go....the holidays rock

I am still untouchable...and it rox:D

The 3 S'es

2005-11-01T05:31:00.000-08:00

Today I spent the entire day doing 3 things, they all start with s.

Swimming(again)
Stoning(with music of course)
Sipping coke(I know its bad for me chick..but can't resist)

Due to doing these different things, I am not super high on sugar, super tan from swimming so much and still listening to music:P I love the holidays

this is the dawning of the rest...of our lives...on holiday- Holiday by Greenday

Great Day

2005-10-31T05:06:00.000-08:00

U2

2005-10-30T04:04:00.000-08:00

Went to a band performance yesterday at Leon's church. The bands performing were amazing man. They played many U2 songs and were great man. Leon was great on his bass and the drummers from both bands made me speechless. They really should go professional. The people form his church were super friendly too.

Church today was quite ok, had the dance prac. My dancing kinda sucks,can't to the jumping thingy for nuts. At least I had fun...well kinda.

I have this unique ability, just from someone's actions, the way that person talks to people or the way that that person acts around other people, I notice things. I don't really know how to explain it. Sometimes its a good thing, sometimes it REALLY sucks. Cuz u like notice things that u REALLI don't want to know. I can't help it, I just notice it. And actually most of the things that I notice are mostly right, or along the same line. And the worst thing is that I can't seem to do anything about this "problem"..that feelin sux..well can't win them all

its a beuatiful day....AND THIS ROX

Crazy Guy

2005-10-23T22:50:00.000-07:00

Was watching this movie called A Knights Tale. The guy in the movie is crazy man, he is really crazy in love.The main hero in the movie is a knight that takes part in jousts which is basically 2 man riding horses and crashing into each other using lances. Now the hero's galfriend wants him in order to prove his love to lose the competition, so this poor guy has to suffer the torture of getting hit by his opponenet and he can't do anything cuz that the only way to ensure that he loses. U might find this romantic and I admit it is a little. But frankly this guy is insane man. He lets himself get hit by his opponenet who comes crashin into him with a lance and he does this all in the name of love. I think he is definitely crazy:P

the crazy things that people do all in the name of love

hello : )

Movie

2005-10-22T16:46:00.001-07:00

Went to watch Transporter 2 yesterday with jon and paul. I haven't watched a movie for like ages due to exams and stuff. I think the last movie I watched was Alot Like Love with my ex-classmates from Rosyth which was in like june or something. thus watching the movie was a much needed break from the troubles of life. The stunts in the movie are amazing man. There was this scene where the hero drove a car up a ramp and used a hook on a crane to rip the bomb that was attached to the bottom of the car. Of course that is logically impossible but it was SOOO cool man:D We also saw sam as we were walkin to the MRT station, only had time to say hi cuz he was with somebody.

Spent some time with paul and jon talking about lots of stuff after the movie. Maybe we should publish a book man:P

this is my final exam...now u'all know who I am..I may not be that perfect son..but u'all be rockin when I'm done-School of Rock

2005-10-19T05:50:00.000-07:00

Guess what I saw when I was sitting on the couch watching TV...I saw Relient K on TRL on MTV:D Relient K ROX man. I'm quite happy and surprised that they were on TRL. Man I love watching TV cuz u can just let yourself go. Not as good as listening to music though:P

And I am UNTOUCHABLE!!!!

This song is great:D

Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be I'll take a breath, take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open...

FREEDOM

2005-10-18T05:09:00.000-07:00

I AM FINALLY FREE..FREEDOM ROX
My exams are FINALLY over with the end of my exams today. The first thing I did was wave my arms wildly as I stepped out of the exam hall and went WHOOHOO. I spent the whole of my day having fun. I played about 4 hours of basketball. I am quite a newbie at basketball..I can only score if no one is blocking me..quite useless right? I never knew that playing basketball was so fun, even after playing it for 4+ hours:D Then after that went parkway for lunch and went to bowl.

Now that exams are finally over, I have a whole list of stuff that I want and need to do:D Now the first thing that I want to do is sit back..relax..and listen to MUSIC.

music is what defines life..it is what brings people together...what bonds people together..what allows enemies to see eye to eye with each other..instead of having war..we should all just sit back..and listen to MUSIC

6 Down 2 More to Go:D

2005-10-13T20:38:00.000-07:00

YAY!!!! I only have 2 more papers left before total unrestrained freedom. My last 2 papers are amaths and history...then FREEDOM. Time passed really fast, I feel as if yesterday was my first paper. At least I'm done with 6 papers:D Next tues, when I finish my paper, I'm gonna run out of my exam hall, tear up my exam time table and throw it in the air. Who cares if I get scolding..I don't care. I can hardly wait man. I am really desperate to do something else..anything either then study. I have a whole list of stuff that I want to do after my exams and during the hols before O level year...need to have alot of stuff sorted out.

I'm only a man in a funny red sheet..its not easy..to be..me
WELCOME TO MY LIFE:D

Age is catching up to me

2005-10-10T19:50:00.000-07:00

Had YE yesterday. I always love sundays cuz firstly , it's church day and secondly, its the only day that I can wake up late:P The worship was amazing man. Letting people know that u are feeling down, they don't need to know why but they will still support u and pray for u. Thats one of the main things that I love about YE.

Had BS today, topic was on love. At the end of the session I talked to my members about the swearing. There are no good points about swearing so I talked about the bad points. I also talked to them about how they should all concentrate on their studies instead of "other" things. U probably know what I'm talkin about. I didn't plan to talk about these stuff but they kinda just came out of my mouth. I suddenly felt SUPER OLD..AHHHH...am I turning into my parents? I am like the last person on earth who should be telling them this. I still can't believe it....

I even surprise myself sometimes..surprises are what adds colour to life....that seems like the explanation for everything....I'm not making sense again... :P

Judgement Day

2005-10-06T15:26:00.000-07:00

Lots of stuff happened this week.
Firstly on monday, I found out this guy from my class named gavin spamed my tagboard. Luckily I managed to delete his posts in time otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. Gavin if u are reading this u better make sure that this doesn't happen EVER again.
Secondly my younder bro's psle started last wednesday. I helped him with his english and his maths:D I really hope he does well so that everyone will be happy and my efforts won't be wasted,
Thirdly, I managed to find my key today:D hahaha. I really need to thank god for that. I was super scared that I lost the key.
Forthly, I tried a new method in writing compos and my teacher likes it:D but maybe I shouldn't use that method ever again as its quite risky. Don't know enough about romance to write a good romantic short story:P

Tomorrow is the start of the EOY exams, good luck everybody:D

Stupid Things

2005-09-29T23:59:00.000-07:00

Haven't blogged for a long time due to one simple word that describes it all..exams. Now deperately in need for something to cheer me up, have decided to think about the many stupid things that I have done in my life, sit back and laugh at them.

1. Once I had to book tickets to watch a movie. I had already booked the tickets the day before and that day when I went to collect the tickets, something was actually horribly wrong. I actually booked the tickets for the wrong day and the worse part is I didn't notice it until I went into the theatre. Halfway through the movie, I realised the mistake but luckily wasn't chased out. I can't believe I made such a stupid mistake like that.

2. When I was in P6, I was playing this trading card game, kinda forgot what it was called. As trading cards were not allowed, me and my classmates played with them in secret. One day for some "strange" reason, my teacher held a surprise check on our bags. To prevent myself from getting caught, out of all the places, I put them in my front pocket. Who in the right mind would hide something that they don't want other people to find in their front pocket? Thankfully , my teacher didn't notice it. We never managed to catch the person who rat on us.

3. During a camp that I had we were supposed to bring a board game. I can't remember what board game I brought but the one thing I remember is that half way during the camp, I realised that I brought the game pieces but I forgot to bring the board.

so far these are all that I can recall right now.
But what will life be without the stupid mistakes that we make....the silly things that we do that adds colour to our lives?

life is like a box of chocolates..u never know what u gonna get... :P

Life

2005-09-24T00:39:00.000-07:00

If u want to ask
Me a question
Why don't u just ask me
Right in my Face

Isn't that the best way to know
Exactly what I think about u
If u realli want to know so badly
Why don't u
Just ask me in my face

Why do u go through all the trouble
Of sending wierd letters
Keeping yourself up at night..thinking
Why don't u just...ask me in my face

Is it cuz you're scared of the answer
Is it cuz you're afraid of what I'll do
Sincerely I would really prefer it
If u just..ask me in my face
( ask me in my face)

Music Part II

2005-09-23T20:59:00.000-07:00

Sometime

Sometimes I wonder
Why the sky is so blue
Or why the birds fly high
So close to the moon

I wonder why the stars
Are so bright
Against the mid-night sky

Sometimes I wonder why
I can’t hold your hand
Even though I don’t have a plan
For any night but tonight

I wonder why as time
Passes me by
I feel as if I am
In a mid-summers dream

Sometimes I wonder why……

The Dog Named King

2005-09-22T06:02:00.000-07:00

The main difference between humans and animals is not the presence of emotions but actually the ability to control these emotions. Once in a while there are some people who lose the ability to sustain this ability. Search deep into yourself and ask yourself this simple question..are u an animal or a human?

shocked part II

2005-09-19T08:12:00.000-07:00

Over the period of the last few days, I found out many shocking things....

1. I didn't realise that many people I know actually did their own notes when studying.
I kinda did a survey and found out that at least 80% of the people I know either from school and even my own brothers did their own notes. They all tell me that its a very good way to study..especially if your teachers don't give notes. I have never done my own notes..not in sec 1 nor in sec 2..hahahaha. Its amazing that I got so far:P I just started on doing my own notes today and it REALLY helps man, have just finished 2 chapters and I feel like I can conquer the world man:D...must be the mocha:P

2. I found out something really cool yesterday. It appears that somehow..strangely..everyone I know is connected in some way or another. Here's an analogy: Friend A is the best friend of one of the friends of Friend B. This reminds me of the time when my bro told me that he knew one of my classmate's sister . Amazing right? Everyone seems to be connected to everyone else.

Surprises in life is really what makes life worth living....

Hands flip open the pages..
Focus moves to the top....
And reads the name of the writer..
A smile breaks out on my face....

YAY! The article that I wrote for the Victoriana has finally been published. It looks realli great:D
I'm a bit of a newbie at writing articles but the joy of seeing your name in a magazine really made my day man. Surprisingly..never thought I would say this but I kinda enjoy writing for some strange wierd reason. I am like the last person on earth who u might think enjoys writing:P

Well..life of a student in singapore is catching up on me
Back to hit the books:( *sigh*
I really can't wait until the holidays are here...
So many things that I want to do..so little time

Spent the whole of yesterday watching the TV:D.I love thursday cuz there is LOST and The OC on thursday:PAnd since the season of smallville is over, so I pretty much only watch TV on thursday. Man...I love watching TV but can't do it as often as I used to:(

Spent the whole of today..painting a toilet. Never in my entire life have I ever envisioned myself painting a toilet:P Did it today for a project that my class had to do. It was quite fun even though it was hard work as I had a good talk with my fellow painters while painting. Now u know why our painting looked a bit wierd:P

..and there is the daily report brought to u by coca-cola:D
COKE ROX!

Coke

2005-09-07T07:13:00.000-07:00

What comes into your mind when u think of coke?
In order for coke to rot your teeth, and destroy your father's day
U need to drink it as often as you drink water
That means at least 8 cans a day!
I don't drink that much...
so a big thanx to all the concerned people out there:P

Even though I'm grounded
Still had fun..can be described in 3 S
S.wimming
S.neakers choc bar
S.toning with music blaring in the background
Feeling high again
Must be the choc bar:P
