WHEE!!!!
dance was fantastic on sat nite!
learnt much more stuff den we could ever learn.
we touched up on e basics of our steps.
ie. e step refinement.
cant believe that our instructor, Mario, can turn something so simple into something so delicate and precise!
n yeah...
SUAY SUAY KANA CALLED UP AGAIN!
n like in front of his pro dance class, he called up 3 frm there, n me as e last example from the NTU group.
asked us to show our 'New York' step with our partners.
den i was like stunned stunned blur blur when i walked up to e centre.
i was thinking at that point of time, "Oh gawrsh, y am i being called...?"
but anw, we had fun while dancing again!
n yeah, today had to dance with my partner n Saffie coz she didnt hav a partner.
n like e diff was super great!
KaiXuan dances with bigger steps while Saffie dances like almost literally on e spot!
it's as if she doesnt move at all!
im like SOOO not used to it.
yeah den aft tat, some of us went to try on e shoe sizes.
n nope, i think e USA imports weren't here yet.
but den Saffie got hers for only 40 bucks!
clearance sale somemore!
n mine has to be 75, aft a 15dollars voucher...
yes, we're all ENVIOUS!
den aft tat i went to join e rest at Beach Road for some Bak Kut Teh.
but like, they din noe where e shop was located!
n like, i was with my bike... so it was harder for me to find where they were!
zzz.
went round n round e same place over n again.
tats e 2nd big prob with bikes.
its a lone ranger kinda thing.
u cant get to enjoy e interaction with frens as u travel.
n tats y i dun ride on sundays.
1st most imptant thing is, when u wanna pillion someone n they r not allowed or are afraid to pillion.
oh well, wateva...
i still need my bike.
might prove handy in times to come.
who knows, i might hav to travel to e other end of singapore frequently?
anw, the bak kut teh wasnt tat bad.
it tasted quite medicinal!
but its still nice!
haha
den i went to e goldenmile food center to dabao some chee kway for my sis aft departing.
i muz say, it was rather delicious too!
YUM YUM!
den today,
sang on stage twice.
one for YPF n 1 for church choir.
Anni lunch was gd too!
mainly e usual.
but this yr there was some tofu with minced meat.
but there wasnt any noodles...
hmm, im still thinking of whether i shd join e carolling band again this yr.
but i've got Church Choir ongoing at e same time as e Carolling practice!
n it starts next sun.
YES, its nxt sun!
anw, im glad too tat Esther n Kat are joining us back in choir nxt week!
n since i tot there wasnt BS today, i went home to sleep n jus negate my sleep debt if any.
den i was thinking like, shd i wake up in time to go Sunset?
well, i did.
but in e end i gave up.
i was too lazy to go.
yeah, e flesh indeed is weak.
den i ate chicken rice for dinner tonight.
havent been eating e usual mixed rice since ive been eating out almost everyday for e past week!
den something unimaginable n totally unapt happened today.
shant comment much.
but yeah.
it was totally uncalled for.
oh well, im not surprised.
anw, i missed out e 1st part of "The Island"!
managed to catch e rest of it.
wat a nice n controversial movie.
yeah n i FINALLY got down to attempt to touch up on my assignment which is due this fri.
im like halfway into it by now.
super mafun.
its like u hav to keep regurgitating ur main algorithm over n over, e only diff is e way u present it.
i did e main thing for all 5 ques.
jus need to interprete them in pseudocode n in english.
zzz.
mafun...
anw, i had a great time of sharing with Esther today.
well, it's called mutual exhortation and encouragement.
Blessed Birthday, Esther!
(even though u're not gonna see this at all)
its close to 430am now...
n im still awake.
tats bad.
wonder if i'll hav enough time this dec!
with camps n practice sessions n all,
n tat competition at e end of e yr.
SCARY!!!!
n yeah, im keeping my bbq small,
i dun quite like e idea of getting a huge grp of frens coz i might totally neglect them this way if i go frm grp to grp.
n i noe wat it feels like when e 'host' is not attending to u.
n i dun want tat to happen to my frens.
EVER.
yep, initially i wanted a separate celeb for diff grps of frens.
e BEST way!
but i guess Man proposes, God disposes.
so yeah!
hope u guys can come!
coz i wanna share my joy!
hopefully it'll spur us on esp for those who r gonna hav exams soon!
main pt is, i jus want ppl ard me to b happy.
=]
so with tat,
i shall end this post n bring this hope to my dreams!
take care lots ppl!

its like as tight as those rock climbing shoes!!!!
my poor poor feet.
oh wells,
im not e only one.
my partner, who wears a size 7, has to squeeze (VERY TIGHTLY) into a size 5.5!
n like saffie has to find a size 1.5 (which wasnt in e range of shoes displayed today)!!!
we're all like so MISERABLE!
"oh it was sad, oh it was sad..."
anw,
1st, tkd has degraded my knees.
now i think dance is so gonna turn to my hip joint next!
it's cracky!
ok NOT cracky. it's POP-PY!
totally gross n painful at times!
but oh well,
sometimes sacrifices are needed.
ANW,
its jus so amazing how i can see the entire Orion's belt once again from my window!
its so LOVELY!
all e shimmering stars!
n oh, ytd there was a REALLY bright 1!
if i had a DSLR,

i jus like to take pictures!
it's those memories tat u would wanna keep.
n now i only hav a hp cam to deal with...

Starry Starry Night
I gazed upon the heavens
from this humble little city,
there it shone,
ravishing in all its beauty.
celestial beings prancing round and about,
some forming a line,
some stood without.
cleansing our morbid hearts,
as we marvel at its sight.
Winking from e edges
a new smile thru the night.
have been 'getting' gigs n GIGS of songs these few days!
i think now my music folder is ard 10gb or more!
i need more den an 8gb iPod touch to store it!
oh well,
if u include all e vids...
nah i think i'll jus stop here.
i still prefer instrumental songs most of the time!
compared to eng, jap, kor and chi!
i think i seldom listen to chinese songs already.
(except for e remnant few in my hp)
i really think i need an mp3 player...
one big enough to store songs.
n to listen on those crazily-insanely long bus rides.
(well, i could listen to them while riding i suppose?)
anw,
to those whose exams r coming,
all e best in studying hard.
or even trying to concentrate!
im so gonna need my instrumental music + liang teh combi while programming.
well, compared to e successful geeks of old,
i think its much safer den coke + acid jazz.
or mayb i shd switch to kickapoo + trance or something to get a better kick out of it.
(n kickapoo has caffeine!)
n no COFFEE for me!
guess perhaps i DO need caffeine patches (like those nicotine patches for smokers) to keep me going on n on n on n on...
Where art thou Eden, O garden of rest?

"Thank You, Lord" - Dan Burgess
And I thank You Lord
For the trials that come my way
In that way I can grow each day
As I let You lead
And I thank You Lord
For the patience those trials bring
In that process of growing
I can learn to care
(Chorus)
But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of all I do
For when those trials come
My human nature shouts the things to do
And God's soft prompting
Can be easily ignored
But I thank You Lord
With each trial I feel inside
That You're there to help lead and guide
Me away from wrong
For You promised, Lord
That with every testing
That Your way of escaping's
Easier to bear
Yes, I thank You Lord
For the victory that growing brings
In surrender of everything
Life is so worthwhile
And I thank You Lord
That when everything's put in place
Out in front I can see Your face
And it's there You belong
Seems like i've been hearing this song for e past few days...
Its almost stuck in my head now...
oh well.
feng emoing now,
sch in a few hrs time,
plus dance today.
n possibly tml going clarke quay for lunch with DSA competitors.
den mayb aft tat going meet up with my West Team CCTW (Close Combat Training Wing).
depends.
oh well,
trials come n go,
opportunities to share too...
Wat only me learnt from FCM ytd was to remem my 1st love for Christ.
tat inner rejoicing with joy unspeakable.
nth else could compare.
n i thank e LORD for trials.
in a way.
yeah.
haha.

'stone' age!
yeah like wat e topic says.
its really a stone age today!
i was stoning e ENTIRE day!!!
tats not gd.
seriously.
wanted to concentrate but i jus cant.
literally stone n daydream with brief moments of concussing!
GROSS!
totally disgusting lah!!!
cant believe it.
anw, finally handed up e Effective Comm Assignment 2 with 999words.
(wanted to make it 1000 words!!! coz its e name of a song i like)
n oso e logbook is being checked already.
although its messy but err..
yeah at least it's done.
wats left.
reflection paper and Java assignment 1.
oh n tat econs quiz which i cant remem when.
n very soon gonna b Effective Comm Assignment 3 which involves a speech.
ok lah.
im quite used to being on stage le.
speaking to a few hundred at once.
i guess tat stage fright has been gotten rid of since sec sch.
lets see...
singing in front of hundreds in JC.
being scrutinized in tkd competitions,
being in front of hundreds n making a fool of oneself in e Army.
choir in front of e congregation.
cant remem wats more...
anw,
some part of my bike broke away!
n now i cant change gears!
its like stuck at 3rd gear even before i entered e expressway to get home.
totally scary arr!!!
i could not go more den 70km/h.
ok theoretically i could, but my engine was roaring away like a ferocious lion already!
so i was like 60+km/h on an expressway.
totally dangerous at night!
[see, sam! no bikes!!!!]
even right now, its still stuck at 3rd gear as i speak!
zzz.
wonder how im gonna get to sch tml.
n NO!
*shakes index finger*
(ok this seems familiar)
no public transport, ie. buses for me!!!
mayb its God's lesson to me to b humble,
to ride defensively n not testing e capabilities of my bike.
(yeah, recently ive been 'cutting' corners n revving like no one's business. im TAT crazy now)
(cant believe im having this kinda irritating attitude now. im more n more like my bro! n tats scary. im wondering wats tat change in me?)
anw,
i've lost quite alot over e past few weeks.
lost many things dear to me.
like my keychain attached to my keys...
its been there since i was in p sch.
somehow it jus disappeared without me knowing.
hopefully i can replace it...
but some things jus cant b replaced.
ARGH!

so weird, it's become a habit.
or is it???
hmm,
which reminds me of e purposes of this blog.
1stly to remind me of all e memories i had,
be it happy or sad.
coz yeah, im forgetful,
n i jus dun want my memories to disappear.
next is to prevent myself from bottling up too much n jus implode on the inside.
rant all i want,
shout all i want,
its my place of literary escapism.
(much like how e punching bag in tkd worked)
n lastly is to hope to share my joys and sadness with everyone ard,
n most imptantly,
to show how miracles were worked out in my life.
and all e nitty gritty stuff tats ever happened to me.
seems quite fascinating to me to see how i grew to furnish this habit of blogging.
anw,
back to my day.
another long meeting, this time its 4 hours,
to 'try' to finish up the entire essay.
however, we were only finished with e intro and two-thirds of the body.
left with e last 1third and the conclusion and oso the 1st ever line of the essay (which seemed the hardest to me)
n really thank God tat since there were only 3 tasks, n 4 group members,
i was omitted from doing anything!!!
*thankful thankful*
n like coz i had my dance revision jus aft e meeting, i wun hav time to get down to do it as well.
n like since we were kinda lazy to meet in sch.
we decided to meet online!!!
hahahaha!
so yeah, once again im really thankful.
(although when they were finding e 'right' person to edit the entire essay, all of them turned their heads to me without hesitation!!!)
(mah engrish ish not shay veri powderfool ash weill mah)
phew phew
at least now we're doing e editing together.
n ya,
MY 1ST EVER BLISTER FROM DANCE!!!!
n its as big as err....
a 10 cent coin!
its been so long since i had a blister.
feels so fun to prick out e 'juice'!
haha but not fun when u're having it...
yeah, was jiving during e early part of the dance session.
super tiring!
n like with e music at such a fast pace,
its really hard to get ur body to keep up with e tempo!!!
n like, u hav to raise ur knees high like e sediah position.
makes me feel so army again!
but yeah,
as always,
tiring but fun!!!
danced with someone new today.
name's Jani.
n its like,
im always dancing with someone who looks like a yr2 (coz she looks pro) but is only yr 1!
n like i only meet them when KX is not ard.
same goes for Daphnanie, tat tall tall (scary) girl.
i always mistake them for yr 2s.
tats e funny thing.
haha.
yeah anyway,
today i learnt much more den dance.
it's oso bout chemistry with ur partner.
its about leading and following.
it's about those minute details in body language, in those eyes.
all these factorise a gd dance with a partner.
e tension between e holds and e grasping of hands part is still abit hard to comprehend.
gotta learn to apply 'pressure' and not to anticipate.
oh oh!
i almost forgot,
Jani taught me how to switch e hand position while e girls do e turn.
shucks, i forgot to impart it.
nvm, shall do so on tues!
KX, if u see this, PLS REMIND ME K!
yeah den aft dance, i met up with feng for supper at bukit timah again!
our fav hangout place for supper!
n today he copied me!
ate nasi pattaya too!
one of my fav!
den he drank some weird drink called Neslo which is Nescafe + Milo.
which reminds me, i still haven't tasted Horlo yet!
n i drank my Bandung.
it still remains in e top ranks of my fav drinks!!!
WHEE!!!
yeah den we chatted til 12plus am before returning home.
n like tml, or in 6 hours time, i'm gonna go his house again to configure some network stuff to b able to play Vegas with him!
=]
oh oh,
n ya, i noe u r jealous tat i nvr ask u out for supper, BRAder.
but den, u see, my bike has only space for 1 passenger.
n besides, since ur dad doesnt allow, neither will i!
hmm unless i get a sidecar or something.
seems possible.
hmmm...
yeah,
once again,
im really thankful i dun need to prepare anything for tml's proj.
n coz of tat, i hav time to prepare for tml's discussion.
yeah, it's my turn to chair e discussion group tml.
hope all turns well according to His Will!
ok. now its 3am...
come hither, O hour of rest!!!
im always blogging ard this time.
tats so weird.
its always 2am!

YAYNESS!!!
haven't eaten this for a long time!
bbq steamboat!
thanks sf n qy!
had much fun with it
lotsa sausages and hotdogs!
n oso e MUG rootbeer float with choc chip ice cream!!!
yeah e ice cream was from China but i dun care!
hmmm, today was crazy,
had a project meeting on Effective Comm for like 6 hours!
(ok mayb jus 5 aft minusing off e makaning n breaks)
im like totally braindead when i got to Sf's house.
n i cant even figure out how using 4 numbers:
1, 3, 4 and 6 can add up to 24.
using only +, -, x, /
no powers or square-root [if not its super easy].
my mind was totally reluctant to even think.
not forgetting tat Serene asked me some chimo question about law.
it doesnt even look like a proper sentence to me.
its like 1 long complex sentence devoid of punctuations!!!
how to understand?!
n they keep repeating the word...
err...
wats e word again?
'offer'?
crappy.
1 long sentence can have tat same word more den thrice.
anw,
im quite thankful for my proj meeting today.
coz like everyone did diff things(wasnt planned this way) n we could collate all e stuff together to answer all e parts of e requirements.
oh and also,
i initially tot we wouldnt hit e word limit of 1000 but den i was wrong.
like so totally wrong.
jus my 1st impressions of e article itself took me like 1152 words?
n like we have to further analyse using some weird PAC-SSS system.
gawrsh,
guess i haven't written a 1000 word essay for a long time.
i think e 1st and last time was in sec 1 or 2.
yeah i was tat crazy.
teacher made me write a 500 word essay to explain why i didnt pass up my homework.
i think i overshot 1000 words instead.
i think close to 1200 words?
yeah i was tat rebellious last time.
n so CRAZY.
i remem getting stuck aft sch coz we stayed behind aft 7 n e gates were locked!!!
lolz.
n there were only 3 ppl in e class..
hmmmz, i wonder wat we were up to...
hiak hiak hiak
anw,
im gonna have another meeting tml aftnoon b4 dancing again!!!
oh man...
1st my brain will rot from all that thinking.
den my legs will rot from all that dancing.
but NO,
i'm not complaining!!!
im still in tat thankful thankful mood!
yeah, but anw,
its 5am now!
gtg sleep, and fast!

a jog of memories
phew,
came back from a very very very long jog.
from my house to rail mall den to bukit timah fire station, den to e bukit batok nature park, den to e old fort factory n back to bukit panjang.
this would b under e railway.
the mini tunnel tat looks like it teleported itself from e ages of WW2.
along e way, i came across many places with lots of memories...
ran thru / pass places where i remembered lotsa fond stuff.
hmmm, this would b e place Pei Xuan lives.
i still remem going to her house many times jus to wait for her to go sch together.
n oso when going to tat MacRitchie Reservoir in our Scouts n Guides uniform.
den when i boarded e cab at 5plus am,
i still remem e taxi driver asking me if i was Mr Johnson...
i guess e operator heard my name wrongly when i booked for e cab e night b4.
hahaha.
'Johnson'... sounds so angmoh.
den i passed by places where i used to jog at like tat eerie park beside e expressway.
really scary at night!
at tat time i was like running for my life!!!
its so eerie tat u can hear e wind rustling e leaves, e crickets chirping all ard,
n tat chilling wind beating all about u.
not forgetting e cliche dim lights and dark settings.
oh n oso tat route beside e coffeeshop n lrt station where i remembered i was debating over e phrase 'over colourful'.
cant believe i was actually 'exercising' my brain while exercising my legs as well.
den we grabbed some supper aft reaching bukit panjang plaza.
e 24hrs Mac was closed.
can u believe it?!
no choice, had to resort to e gd old faithful instant noodles.
i remem in sec sch we used to eat e Nissin cup noodles + Jolly Shandy at least twice a week!
with Wilson and Weihong (was Feng and Jianqi inside too? cant remem).
i only remembered e 3 'W's !!!
yeah den we stationed at eclosed closing starbucks at 1230am for awhile b4 proceeding to some staircase, for fear of being chased away.
hmm i think something similar happened aft my prom night too rite?
was it?
went to swissotel to change,
den went for supper aft seeing feng off.
den ate instant noodles again at some tables n chairs outside a closed restaurant.
wah tats like a really long time ago lah!
Hey BRAder, n i still remem tat time u were sooooo peer-pressured to go Double-O with ur classmates rite?
so like r u regretting now?
hahaha.
sry arr,
i dissuaded u instead.
but den,
we had a GREAT time of sharing and chatting til e early wee hours beside e Singapore river til 7plus am ya?
those were e crazy times...
haiz.
memories,
what a funny little thing...
anw, i came across my bro's ex's blog(well he has many ex's)
n she jus went to e funeral of Sun Yanzi's singing coach.
"What I took home tonight was really what Pst Ming said that sent tears welling up in my eyes, " At the end of the day, what is most important in life is relationships. So hug those people that you can hug now and spend time with those you can spend time with now... Tell them how much you love them. Tell them you want to have more coffees with them... ". It's no wonder that the bible says, 'Better to spend your time at funerals than at parties, after all, everyone dies - so the living should take this to heart. Sorrow is better than laughter, for sadness has a refining influence on us. A wise person thinks a lot about death, while a fool thinks only about having a good time.' (Ecc 7:2-4 NLT)"
but wat struck me was e last sentence.
"A wise person thinks a lot about death"
well, i used to always think alot bout death...
so tat made me... wiser?
i noe of frens who always think bout death.
*cough cough* AHEM! *clears throat*
n oso frens who attempted death.
but failed.
who ask her to go take panadols instead of sleeping pills...
GAWRSH.
tats a really weird statement...
til i looked up e KJV version.
Ecclesiastes 7:2-4 (King James Version)
this totally meant a diff meaning.
if not, i think i'll really think of death every moment to make myself wiser!!!
scary scary.
imagine me on my bike. -thinking of death-
WHOOPS~
den u'll see like minced meat on e roads.
hahahaa.
anw,
im looking forward to e steamboat at SF's house tml night!
hope there's nice food!!!
yummy!!!!

recalled e old old times!
n like we had this crazy idea to jus shout out to e horizon of that blue green sea!
jus wanna scream out!!!!
hahaha!
den we cycled to e other end of e park, chatting along e way as usual.
n yeah, time jus went on too fast.
soon it tured really dark.
but tat didnt stop us.
in fact,
it was a scenery i hadnt seen for a couple of months!
well, den Carl's jr awaited us for dinner!!!!
at 1st wanted to go changi airport to eat tat famous Ban Mian at T1.
but yeah, something new for her for a change.
shared a double western bacon cheeseburger!
oh n dun forget tat beef chilli cheese fries!
AWESOME!
den we went to e airport to send my cousin off.
oh wells,
he's jus going to australia for 3 weeks to meet up with his gf during his break.
n like there were complications jus 1 hr b4 he had to board e plane!
it was a totally panic situation!
he didnt noe he had to apply for visa!
n like e counter was closing in close to 10mins time!
so we had to rush to e nearest empty computer we could find at e cafe 2mins away!
den went online to apply n PHEW!
all was ok!
n next, aft he went thru tat departure gate,
we suddenly remembered whether he did apply for an exit permit online!!
*GASP*
another panic situation.
fortunately, we have Soon Hock e veteran!
haha,
he helped him to apply for it without Jer's presence!
thank God he was there!
n like when i was home,
i found many old pics in my long lost 2MP cam!(can u believe it? my hp is oso 2 MP!!!)
added them to facebook since adding it here was uber tedious.
shall post e links here!:
here's e pics for today!: http://www.new.facebook.com/album.php?aid=73661&l=061d5&id=502485900
n here's my really old army photos which im pretty sure no one will b interested in:
http://www.new.facebook.com/album.php?aid=73667&l=b3992&id=502485900
(n no Serene, this album doesnt include e pics i had with u during POP day!)
(btw, im really thankful to hav u come down during my most embarrasing army day! =] )
n yeah,
im missing my Baby now.
couldnt cradle her anymore...
cant caress her anymore...
oh wells, at least i still hav pics of her.
but it was so sad,
dying a slow n painful death with an ever-expanding liver tumour.
oh wells,
what's meant to be, will be.
anw, i jus gotten hold of YUI's 2nd latest album: I Loved Yesterday
n like aft watching thru e MTV of "Goodbye Days"
it totally makes me feel like watching Taiyou No Uta [A song to the Sun (literal translation)]/(Midnight Sun)
all over again.
its a really sad story bout this girl who cant come out of e dark n into e sun due to her perculiar degenerative disease tat will inflict her when in contact with e sunlight n its rays.
so all her life she has been sleeping in day time, waking up only at night when e world is asleep.
there, she pursues her passion for singing by performing on e streets at night with jus her guitar and her candle.
n jus b4 e dawn breaks,
she always peeks out her window to peep at tat guy she always sees from her window.
with tat ever irritating bus stop sign always blocking her view.
one fateful nite, out in the streets.
she confessed out of e blue by pouncing on him from behind n blurting out all her likes n dislikes even b4 he could get to say a word,
therefore naturally scaring away tat guy.
but den as time flew by,
she relied on her 'normal' younger sister who studies at e same sch to do 'research' on him.
to see how his life was like in e daytime.
n from there on,
they met each other again n e boy decides to bring her out to another town during midnight.
she saw e nightlife,
she saw the sights tat she could nvr see.
n thats where she realized tat life was much more den jus her window.
but den, as e hours passed,
it was daybreak in a few moment's time.
she had to rush home.
she couldnt b with tat guy anymore.
she needed e darkness.
the darkness, away from the sun.
running as hard as she could,
she barely made it thru to her house,
but unfortunately, was still exposed to e sun.
the degradation then accelerated.
she knew she couldnt hav a life with him.
she was dying, n fast.
frm there on, she chases the boy away, looking happy at e same time.
he walks away first with a smile,
den with tears in his eyes...
however, he made her dreams come true by hooking up with a music recording studio for her to record her song.
her life-song.
e 2nd last scene:
e entire family with him at e beach in day time.
with her in tat total-sunlight-blocking astronaut-looking suit.
(u wun need sunblock at all with this!)
him: having fun in e waters.
her: sitting on a wheelchair in a suit.
she stands up all wobbly,
n slowly takes steps towards him who stands in e waters.
n it slowly trancedes to e last scene
her funeral.
the radio plays her song,
it making to e 'no 1' in all Japan.
~music plays~
the family hears it in e home.
He hears it in his cd player...
"Goodbye...", tats e word tat comes to my mind.
*THE END*
sad sad story,
but my fav ever Jap movie.
its like,
totally diff from a normal movie,
somehow,
u can totally understand meanings from scenes with no words.
but only pictures of sceneries.
these scenes invoke countless feelings in ur head.
like wat they say, "A picture paints a thousand words."
which can also b heard by e song, "You say it best, when you say nothing at all."
magnificent piece of 'artwork', it truly is.
hope a provided a gd-enough summary of e movie from my memory.
do correct me if im wrong, Sam.
but yeah.
anw, here's e MTV for the song:
i wanna watch it again...
today was another great day!!!
DAnzon workshop day 1!
its like this really cute yet rather 'sei' dance!
dancing to mexican wind instruments!
n its diff from other dances coz it has progression!
like lets say this entire routine is danced to a slow beat,
den e beat keeps on going faster n faster!
den like,
'WOOTZ!
OH YEAH!!! We're actually dancing!'-kind of mood
den like aft e dance went to ate at Cant 3 with tat not-tat-bad chicken rice!!!
den we had Daphnie n Page join us today!
n like Daphnie totally ruled e day with all e lame racist jokes!
n like, i cant believe tat no one believed tat i was a biker!!!
i mean like, not even with my half-mat face?!
n here comes e ultimate reply, "U have e non-biker-half-mat face!"
oh well,
den aft tat i burnt lotsa rubber n fuel to rush to ECP like from e other side of S'pore to meet Shirlyn!!!
squeezed thru e jam at 120km/h as always.
bo bian, im in a rush!!!
den we cycled n chat along e paths.
stopped at a corner of e park.
some really ulu corner on e way to changi beach park.
n we jus sat/squatted there n chit chatted.
listened to songs.
recalled e old old times!
n like we had this crazy idea to jus shout out to e horizon of that blue green sea!
jus wanna scream out!!!!
hahaha!
den we cycled to e other end of e park, chatting along e way as usual.

The moon hangs high. Bright and mighty it shall be.
i'm so bored today.
so i'm like uploading pics of e moon which i saw tonight.
really BWIG today!
although i've seen much bigger ones but well,
tonight is jus another night with it being big enough for me to notice.
i love to jus stare at e starry stary night.
if there ever is one here at my area.
its so vast n free...
hmm,
freedom...
reminds me.
i hav freedom because im a rebel.
but still, im bonded by sin.
how ironic.
im free to roam anywhere at night.
i free to stay up til e wee hours of e morning like 7am?
im free to leave my house as and when i want.
im free to go wherever i please with no one to stop me.
im free to not even come home for the night.
but den,
so wat if im free...
it doesnt mean a thing to me.
mayb im jus taking it for granted
since i do noe of ppl with curfews, have to report to parents etc.
but den, to seek freedom, isit a far better side to stand on?
freedom without self-control is deadly poison.
den again, without guidelines,
u wun noe wat it means to hav self-control.
u wun noe wat r e boundaries.
den again,
i dunno wat im rambling about.
could it be im sick of all these freedom?
or mayb i jus need an outlet of literary escapism.
if so, y arent i starting on my reflection paper instead?
im weird.
haha
looking forward to GD food tml!
i really wanna eat fries now though...

Farewell but not goodbye

hmmm...
a particle accelerator eh?
cool!
one day e world will go BOOM!
hahaha.
which reminds me of an econs question today.
my fren's answer from e tutor is tat in e VERY long run e donut industry will close down when a health report is issued stating tat donuts increase heart failure.
but y close down?
coz in e VERY VERY VERY long run, e world will go BOOOM!
hahahaha.
den of coz no more donuts lor.
talking bout donuts and heart disease,
my heart hurted real bad jus now.
but only during my weekly jog.
tats soo strange.
nvr felt so constricted b4...
n jus when i was discussing bout medics n CPR this morn.
so weird.
haha
n my msn cant work, tats weird too.
hmmmm,
was unproductive today
wanted to do more tutorials but since feng came over to hav a chat n kope some games.
i kinda lost interest.
clarified and sorted out lotsa things.
n who says tat frens dun hav issues.
well, i think someone said i hav alot more arguments with someone else den tat somebody.
haha really?
wow i really do argue alot ya?
sry arr...
but hey,
arguments draw ppl closer.
perhaps tats y im close to that someone else.
coz i argue alot.
well...
since i argue tat much,
so much grieving n disappointment arises,
y am i not forsaken?
it was so easy to back den.
there were many reasons for us to go our separate ways.
perhaps...
perhaps,
we chose to believe in each other.
n without tat trust,
its hard to go forth without encouragement.
without ppl to share ur burdens and ur joy.
i thank e Lord,
for such blessings in my life.
thanks, somebody n tat somebody else.

Timing is e key!
GAWRSH
today's dance was uber tough, yet easy!
beginner's class we touched up on our rhythm.
our internal counting n stuff like tat.
tat was really easy.
oh n we learnt e 'closed hold' plus e turn-around!
hmm den in e competitor's class, it was totally crazy.
we learnt e hardest step in rumba, which is e Spiral!
had to twirl 360 degrees on 1 feet!
n like,
only e PROs could do it magnificently.
everyone else jus twirled n lose balance.
gotta work on tat.
n my spot turn!
oh, we also learnt e hand movements for e basic steps.
feels like some birds flapping their wings.
really graceful...
but hard to incorporate...
yeah den we had a mini MAF celeb aft tat!
but too bad Saffie (or Samantha Anne Francis) couldnt join in e mini fun coz she had to go back to e hall to paint banners.
oh well, but we had fun trying to light sparklers as we walked up e tall hill towards Nanyang House before our class started!
so in e end was left with me, Joseph n KaiXuan to enjoy our little coffee flavoured mooncake from Ipoh!
n yeah though i dun like coffee, but it was really uniquely flavoured!
n really nice too!
n I bought a BIG BIG bottle of green tea to compliment it too!
n we had a candlelight supper, literally.
played with more sparklers too!
n we were like supposed to carry our lanterns ard!
but i guess we had no time.
so in e end we were jus distributed our lanterns, together with tat bright orangey plastic stick!
i can still remem last time we use those wooden ones.
n it seems more 'high-tech'!
took some snapshots with my hp:
this would be e last stub of e candle.
tats my dance partner aft she tried to take a sneakshot of me n this was my revenge!
n tats another fren i met in DSA.
pro dancer who danced for his hall in his first yr.
yep he's a yr 2
ERRM... n this would be e Sunkist Serene Smile!!!
taken from last thurs when we ate at Ichiban!!!
n frankly, e ginger chicken was fantastic too k?
too bad SOMEONE doesnt like e taste of ginger.
or din even notice tat word when SOMEONE ordered it.
oh well, tats wat happens when hunger drives u to make decisions.
as long as its food, its edible...
rite?
haha
phew, ytd slept at 4am while doing my tuts for wed.
n configuring tat new phone.
really cool!
5MP!
den again,
its not mine.
hahaha.
slim, sleek and powerful!
n now i gtg prepare my tuts for fri!
so tat i'll be free to finish my other camp commitments n study for tat quiz on fri.
n not forgetting to prepare earlier for my lab nxt week.
so tat i can go in n sign attendance n print stuff n staple into my logbook n off i go!!!
wonder how long i'm gonna take to finish.
each lab costs me at least 4 to 6 hours!
when they give u only a 2hr time span..
zzz.
i still got some leftover sparklers.
anyone wanna play!?

another 2am post
yeah im always blogging ard this time.
tats so weird.
feels like a habit to me already.
really tired today tat i had to skip church in e evening.
but well,
i had a gd lunch at cafe cartel at IMM today.
learnt lotsa stuff from uncle roland, David's father.
well, he cooks.
or rather, he cooks FANTASTIC MEALS!
well, jus judging from e experience he portrayed,
n erm, e size of his children,
i can see tat ppl really love his cooking.
n like its so impresive how from jus one stare of e food,
he is able to reverse-engineer how e food was being cooked,
n can even suggest methods to improve / improvise!
totally amazed!
not only tat, he taught abit of fine dining etiquette to yujie today too!
yeah, n we actually had a de-boning session of pork ribs today!
haha.
simply lovely!
oh n like,
i like e bakerzin mini snowskin mooncakes!
not e alcoholic ones though.
it looks really nice n presentable!
havent really eaten a mooncake for a longtime.
i still remem last yr i was celebrating with roy at e erm, park near his house.
n like e yrs before tat when he was still living in bukit panjang.
we'd go to e park near our house, walk ard with those lanterns.
create a rocket of sparklers like we've been doing for yrs!
haha yeah n they really fly high like many storeys high!!!
with a trail of sparks at its tail.
den we'll play with sparklers.
throw them real far when its about to die out.
looks like a shooting star!
miss those times too.
ok back to where i was,
yeah, havent been eating mooncakes.
coz i used to believe tat they choke up my arteries!!!
n there u hav Clement saying tat we shd enjoy wat e Lord has provided for us.
yeah i can see tat he does enjoy,
his mini tummy is living proof of it.
n he doesnt even care much bout it!
amazed!
mayb i shd try tat western food at NIE n get a tummy too!
hhahaa.
yeah, this week's gonna b hellish for me.
2 quizes:
1 on mon, 1 on fri.
n my lab is still unfinished!
left tat last question which kept me sleepless for 4plus hours 2 nights ago.
n like, i gotta prepare exhortation, n e timetable, and e postcards, and e camp booklet all by this sat!
GAWRSH.
im soooo dead.
so much to do, so little time to spare.
cant really have time to enjoy n sleep these days.
eyebags becoming blacker.
since im poor, perhaps i gotta resort to cucumbers rather den expensive lotions
but den again,
i dun hav e time to even do tat!
haha.
oh well...
Jonathan...
one step at a time ok?
take things slowly but surely. (ok this phrase reminds me of 'Eyes on me')
but yeah,
im surviving each day by God's grace.
Higher ground, dear all!!!

BBQ~
yeah, i havent had a bbq for a long time.
really missed the hotdogs...but well
we ate more den jus normal hotdogs!
got cheese hotdogs, 'imitation' cheese hotdogs, chicken hotdogs!
hahah.
stingray!
crabmeat...
mushroom cheese!!!
chicken wings etc
mainly e usual stuff.
but i guess e best were e imitation cheese hotdogs!
which is like normal hotdogs with a slit den u add mozarella cheese in it!!!
i muz say its much better den e original!!!
hahaha.
love it lots.
oh n someone tried bbq those instant prata u buy from ntuc.
turned out disastrous!
n yeah,
im e fire 'reviver' again.
well, its my expertise anw.
haha, some trademark from my sec sch days.
yeah i DO love to play with fire.
im glad i havent burned down my house as of yet.
i can still remem me in p sch jus turning on e gas stove n lighting up a satay stick with it!
well, it jus amuses and amazes me with all e nitty gritty details of how it catches fire,
n jus burns with tat glow.
yeah, i love fire.
aha.
sounds weird.
anw,
i feel so retarded...
im like blogging while roy and yun feng are fast asleep.
well, wish we could get together n talk more...
i really wana chit chat with them but i guess we're all tired.
YES,
WE're all tired(including me).
i felt so crazy la
doing my lab til 6plus 7am in e morn...
but it was nice for a change.
i mean,
i havent really saw e sunrise for eons...
mayb coz i hav been waking up late every morn.
oh well, life starts e earliest at 830 for me.
so i can afford to leave home by 815.
so i wun get to see e sunrise at all...
even when i was working i guess.
however, i cant get to see a beautiful sunrise as i had hoped for.
oh well, mayb coz since i live in SENJA (translated 'sunset' in malay),
the sunsets here r prettier den e sunrise.
i jus love tat orangey hue tat bursts thru e windows ard 6plus pm...
but yeah, i wonder how e sunrise would look like in e east.
is it as spectacular?
i hope so...
yeah, n like WAll.E reminds me of something.
if we dun take time of our busy schedule n workload,
we will miss out on the finer details of life.
we wun even notice things tat r there for a long time.
but jus, dun even notice it at all...
n im glad tat somehow,
e Lord made me realise many things out in e world.
things i took for granted,
things tat were really a blessing to me.
all these amidst our busy busy lives,
travelling here and there...
working so hard.
wat's even e point of it all?
wats this flimsy paper called a degree even worth.
it'll jus turn into dust sooner or later.
but some things r there to stay.
things of this puny little world r temporal.
theres a bigger world out there.
where theres no room for regrets.
where things will stay forever.
will i be there?
im sure i will.
but will u?
i hope i'll see u all there.
(n somehow,
im being reminded when i was young,
i took pics at this artificial waterfall at Sentosa Shangri-la.
jus brings back lost memories...
i dun even noe how it resurfaced.
weird me)
anw,
im thankful for all e providence i received thus far.
blessings- both spiritual n physical- tat i was endowed with.
'i was naked, and ye clothed me. i was hungry, and ye fed me. I was tired, and ye took me in.'
I cant be more thankful den tat.

ARGH!!!
Im like sooo soooo tired!
tired n hungry...
its like 620am,
n i still cant find e logic behind another lab question...
but i need to sleep.
got long weekend ahead...
sigh.
oh, well,
today's dance was AWESOME!
hahaha.
music was nice too!
but since i was rather tired today,
i couldnt really concentrate on my dance.
but overall was gd i hope.
RUMBA is e bestest!!!
n like, im teaching my other frens how to dance rumba today...
zzz.
feels like an instructor all over again.
but den again,
im jus a noob,
n they r like ballet and hip hop dancers.
cant believe im teaching them.
weird.
but oh well, thank God at least i noe e steps.
jus gotta work more on my spot turn!!!
n my hand-gracefulness(if theres such a thing)
so tired...
oh wait!!!
JUS TO CLARIFY,
MY BLOGSKIN IS NOT EMO!
OR SATANIC!
OR TO SCOLD ANYONE!
coz its jus a tribute to this Character,
since theres like so little blogskins of him ard,
so y not create one?
btw, those quotes r said by 'him', not by me.
well, im jus quoting anw...
He's so called, a split personality in layman terms.
thus e word 'other', meaning its 'real' personality.
so this is just a story of him,
before he joins back to e 'original',
with his personality fading away, along with his memories.
wait, y am i even bothering to explain...
oh well.
"sleep beckons",
like wat KX said.
cant believe she still had e brain juice to do a sudoku jus now at 12am, aft sleeping at 530am last night.
*salute*
oh well, im hungry, tired and frustrated over my lab.
nitez world~
tired n hungry...
its like 620am,
n i still cant find e logic behind another lab question...
but i need to sleep.
got long weekend ahead...
sigh.
oh, well,
today's dance was AWESOME!
hahaha.
music was nice too!
but since i was rather tired today,
i couldnt really concentrate on my dance.
but overall was gd i hope.
RUMBA is e bestest!!!
n like, im teaching my other frens how to dance rumba today...
zzz.
feels like an instructor all over again.
but den again,
im jus a noob,
n they r like ballet and hip hop dancers.
cant believe im teaching them.
weird.
but oh well, thank God at least i noe e steps.
jus gotta work more on my spot turn!!!
n my hand-gracefulness(if theres such a thing)
so tired...
oh wait!!!
JUS TO CLARIFY,
MY BLOGSKIN IS NOT EMO!
OR SATANIC!
OR TO SCOLD ANYONE!
coz its jus a tribute to this Character,
since theres like so little blogskins of him ard,
so y not create one?
btw, those quotes r said by 'him', not by me.
well, im jus quoting anw...
He's so called, a split personality in layman terms.
thus e word 'other', meaning its 'real' personality.
so this is just a story of him,
before he joins back to e 'original',
with his personality fading away, along with his memories.
wait, y am i even bothering to explain...
oh well.
"sleep beckons",
like wat KX said.
cant believe she still had e brain juice to do a sudoku jus now at 12am, aft sleeping at 530am last night.
*salute*
oh well, im hungry, tired and frustrated over my lab.
nitez world~

'Zonked'biefied
Phew finally another blogskin.
n finally means finally a Roxas skin.
anw, saving e details for later,
WALL.E was superb!
tats like e best movie in this present age tat uses nonverbal communication to convey messages and meaning.
glad i watched it.
its jus so amazing how tat 'magical touch' can bring one(or it) to go as far as to a whole new world, to endeavour all odds. even for such an AI like it.
reminds me of a line from a song,
"This innocence is brilliant, i hope that it will stay... (its so beautiful, it makes you wanna cry)"
For such a simple-minded being like Wall.E...
to appreciate everything he has even though he was alone on that world.
well not really alone, but rather with his pet Xiao Qiang which it squeeshed many times.
A definitely recommended watch.
feel like watching it again...

Specimen Letter 1: 'A letter from bobo to bebe'
"Dear Bebe,
I still remember the time you said that it would lessen your guilt if i moved on right? I guess now would be the time (if the guilt was ever still there).
I must say, this letter has been rather late in arriving at your doorstep but nevertheless it was needful for this letter no matter what the consequences may befall or the future that beholds us and lies in wait for us.
Truth be told, I have decided to let go. It just ain't fair for the both of us. This creates lesser stress and tension betwixt us two. Holding on has no purpose for me when I can't even be encouraged by it even as I progress on life's journey. There is no hope in it too. In fact, it might even worsen the relationship that we have now. Besides that, I believe it would impact you in ways unmeasurable. Impacts that I might never know of, be it beneficial or detrimental.
It will definitely be difficult for me since it's hard to put down my love for someone who loved me just as much. But for our sakes, it just has to be done. It might take a long while before it might even be complete but that is the direction that God has shown me through the people around me and their testimonies. And yes, God's way is the best way for us right now. Initially I wanted to grow stronger for you. It was to better protect you, for you to better rely on me, for you to trust me more and share your cares and sorrows. Yes, it was all for your sake at that time. I wanted to grow stronger for you and to be more secure. That was why I began to assume more responsibilities, that I may learn from it and grow in the process. But I guess, that should not have been my main driving point. I can't place my hope oninfallible Man, or even myself or even my love that I have for you. I have no choice but to place it in His hands, to wait for Him to guide me, to build me up, to strengthen me.
You were never not-good-enough-for-me in my eyes. You taught me many things, many important lessons of love and of life. I still believe that you were more than what I had wanted, no matter what you think. Please do not compare yourself to the others. No matter how good you think they were, I would still have chosen you and you would have already known why. And no, you were never self-centred. All these while I always know and have experienced that you care alot about me, more then yourself. I have never once thought of you as being selfish, but in fact, you gave me more then I could ask for. You will definitely say that I gave much more to this relationship but to me, it was all my reasonable service, it was never classified as 'Sacrifice'. It was my way of saying that I do love you too.
I must really thank you for all those sweet and precious memories of us, together. All those special moments that will never ever leave my sea of memory. All the silent encouragement I received from you all this while. And all those times when you stayed by my side, reassuring me that you were there with me. To know that you were happy with just me by your side. I'm thankful for the times you put me down when I feel egoistic, for the times we chatted 'til nightfall, for all the sorrows and tears that led us together, for the times where I could smell your garlic-breath, for the times you put the phone to Pinklet and expecting it to answer. (The list is inexhaustive and it'll go on forever.) Lastly, I want to thank you for loving me so so so much to sacrifice for me. But I'm glad to have had you. Even though its hard not to think back upon it, to want to go back to those times again, but I must say that I too do cherish them and will keep them close to my heart. It will be tough, it will hurt, alot, it may hurt like there's no tomorrow, to know that your hand is not in mine, that I can't give you that tightly-squeezing hug, and that I can't be by your side anymore, but I guess it's the only way out for us now.
I am pretty happy too that you have been enjoying these times with your family and your newly found friends. It just gives me more conviction and reason to let go since I can't do much more for you anymore. I'm glad to see you happier this way. But I just want to say, please do not forsake God for my sake if it were ever so. And I also do want to apologize for the many spams in your handphone inbox for the past few weeks. Please hate me if it makes you feel better too.
Though our paths may never cross again, I'm glad that we were once happy together. I am contented as well. The future looks bleak for us but I may be wrong. Only God knows what His plan is for us. But never one day, will you be kept from being in my prayers.
I am going to end here with one song to top it off. Its the way I look at you:
What makes you different
You don’t run with the crowd
You go your own way
You don’t play after dark
You light up my day
Got your own kind of style
That sets you apart
Baby that’s why you’ve captured my heart
I know sometimes you feel
Like you don’t fit in
And this world doesn’t know
What you have within
When I look at you
I see something rare
A rose that can grow anywhere
And there’s no one I know that can compare
Chorus:
What makes you different
Makes you beautiful
What’s there inside you
Shines through to me
In your eyes I see all the love I’ll ever need
What makes you different makes you beautiful to me
You’ve got something so real
You touched me so deep
The material things
Don’t matter to me
So come as you are
You’ve got nothing to prove
You won me with all that you do
And I wanna take this chance to say to you
You don’t know how you’ve touched my life
Oh there’s so many ways, I just can’t describe
You taught me what love is supposed to be
It’s all the little things that made you beautiful to me
----------------------------------------------------
Thank you Dearie for all that you've done.
