wat could b so urgent tat warrants me 3 rejected calls?
lil did i noe tat it was Father's day.
aiya, its not like i oso celebrate it.
of coz i wouldnt even remem it.
we went to e usual yong choon eating house jus down upper bukit timah for dinner.
yeah, its e usual place where we celeb everything.
from bdays to fathers' day.
e unusual stuff tat happened tat night was a shocker!
our family's 1st prayer meeting together.
we all had to say encouraging words to our dad.
urgh...
n ive nvr even talked to my dad.
let alone say something nice.
tough job but still,
had to humble myself to e very core to give a mini speech in chi.
(ungh, my weakest subject somemore)
but im abit glad tat i managed to cross tat 1st hurdle.
felt very drastic in e process.
-Mon, 22 June '09-
went to e new Clementi building where they tore down Macs!
had a GREAT dinner consisting of 14 plates of 99c sushi n sashimi!
played photohunt aft tat.
n guess wat?
during our 1st continue credit, we actually used up all lifelines!!!
time extend, time extend, Clue#1, Clue#2.
n total we only had 4 correct thus far!
clock's ticking away.
"oh shit, oh shit!"
'GAMEOVER'.
zzzzzzzz
but we still had a great time though.
rite, yang?
-Tues, 23 June '09-
headed down to ECP for a photoshoot cycling trip!
e skies, e sand, e sea, e smiles.
many many many random shots of e pretty faces of Nature.
if only i can jus spend an entire morning there painting/drawing/stoning.
how tranquil it would hav been.

=]

i've also been taught quite abit today:
-being grounded n all.
but im so light,
if i dun ground enough,
i'll b sent flying away when competitors whack me!
too bad they couldnt give pointers for my routines.

or at least tats wat i hope we can aspire to be!
had a great chat n supper today with karen, rianto, ethan and sukyee til 2am!!!
had been a long time since we ever had something like this.
im pretty surprised tat ethan n sukyee stayed til tat late too!
they normally go back at ard 1am aft hanging out.
n not forgetting tat we left alot earlier from e seminar room.
i think we could hav conversed til 3am if not for e 'summon'er who spoilt e night.
thank God tat e zhi char auntie came out to warn us bout them!
im not so sure if i've gotten a ticket digitally too but at least no physical ones!
phew phew.

Will they get there?
esp when u hav all sorts of parking attendents in all e carparks in e area such tat u'll hav to travel from carpark to carpark jus to evade their watch!
low speeds, slopes, balancing, etc.
but wat appalled me was this MLM seminar i went to coz my dear JJ TKD fren Azman was promoted to some Manager position n was giving a speech.
so i thought, "y not?"
n 1st thing was kids - yes, kids - came screaming e roof off like it was some party at Attica!
blasting out deafening screams of such amazing decibels,
i was wondering if i was even in e right place.
n guess wat,
their company theme song - yes, they hav a company theme song too. wth. - was some old national day song sung by stefanie sun. We Will Get There.
where u see all e top execs with their BMWs, pictures of 3 storey private housings, yachts.
all sung to e tune of a national song.
how haywire can it get?!
Stefanie Sun - We Will Get There
Remember the days, we set out together with faith?
Remember the times, so fine, when we thought that
Nothing could stand in our way?
Then things weren't the same, the life that we knew had to change
We've struggled through, the darkest storms
We thought we couldn't tame
Together we've tried, as we stood side by side
I knew we'd build a new world
A world of hope for ever after
Chorus 1:
Deep in my heart I just know
Right from the start, we will grow
Look where we are, we've come so far
And there's still a long, long way to go
Chorus 2:
With all of my heart, I will care
I'll play my part, I will share
With family and friends, together we'll stand
And in the end, hand in hand
We will get there
So now we begin, working together to win
Believing in trust, it must
Be possible to overcome anything
There's so much to do, there's so much we can contribute
By sharing just a little love
We will start again anew
So why don't we try? If we stand side by side
I know we'll build a new world
A world of hope for ever after
Repeat Chorus 1&2 twice
it felt sooooo unprofessional!
yes, products may b gd,
but e style wasnt.
n i cant believe i sat there for 3 hrs...
with club music blasting thru e stereos with each top exec introduced.
tat was my only 'source' of comfort.
at least i noe im still in this crazy world.
Saturday, 13 June 2009
so tat i will not waddle past stacks of trash not belonging to me.
n be able to safely keep sweets n lollipops in my fridge without it disappearing without a trace tat even dogs cant pick up.
or tat i can safely put a receipt on my desk tat's worth $700 if i claim it, n it gets miraculously blown away with e wind into the bullseye of a trashbin. at least tats wat i hope.
or find tat bloody grasshopper with 2 wheels.
n no one touches my figurines n messes them up into a clump.
n tat i can redocorate my room safely n keep it tidy n devoid of clutter.
n sleep peacefully in e nite without 2 ppl playing maplestory 2 in e same room.
if only.
Be My Baby
it took me much patience to read thru such a thriller as this!
i jus couldnt help but want to get to e ending asap.
yep im impatient.
but Neil Humphreys makes me feel like im watching a 9mth actual documentary all squeezed into a few hours!
wherewith i would, if possible, skip all e other pages n turn to e last entry n jump into e scene painted for me.
but i reckon i would receive a smack on e head by a certain someone.
wat a wonderful creation, as i would describe it.
a total must-have for fathers-to-be and aspiring fathers.
makes me look forward to my own personal adventure yrs down e road!
going for 2nd round of bee hoon.
its been a while since mom cooked.
n get myself a cup of ice milo latte!

a one way ticket to the blues
i am going to bed now. n really hope today's fainting spells disappear with it.
im like getting the best of both worlds here.
pretty ironic i noe, but i hav no other description other den 'both tired n sufficiently slept'.
hopefully this time my sleeping pangs wun appear.
n tat i'll hav a long undisturbed rest,
if only i had my own coffin six feet under.
(n a couple of earplugs n aircon)
n yes, if i had e means, i'd definitely get more shirts for sure.
n learn how to unbore ppl.
n probably get rid of e irritating pic on this page soon.
it urks me to see tat emo pic everytime.
need inspiration n time n nimble hands.
Black n white is there to stay.
but wats e new colour to make my day?
insomnimax
$500.00!!
wooootz~
too bad it's not totally for me to bank it in.
but still, it shd keep me alive for a few more days!
sleep has been avoiding me recently.
somehow. jus somehow,
no matter how hard i try to sleep,
i always end up sleeping later n waking earlier den expected.
ahhh, e plights of a light-sleeper?
perhaps i'll b better off a watchdog. lol
i think i've effectively slept for approx 4 hrs these 2 days even though ive been in e sleeping posture for 9hrs.
n yeah, i jus woke up from a supposed sleep from 930pm to next morn.
turned out tat sleep evolved into naps instead.
zzz.
someone force alcohol down my throat or whack me with a metal bar pls.

down eventful memoribilia lane
call me nuts!
but i jus did a whooping exactly 2hr jog!!!!
effectively, e dist i jogged could stretch from bukit panjang to clementi n back!
i muz hav been having a loose screw up there.
started at 1215am,
i ran thru my usual 'long' route,
running along e upper outskirts of bukit panjang, from senja link to zhenghua sec,
down e lrt tracks to segar.
passed by my sis' sch at Beacon Pri n headed down towards bangkit n petir.
and this time,
NO!
i skipped tat horrific park beside e expressway n instead followed e path down towards petir lrt.
at tat very cross junction,
i saw this yellow mini hunchback and a guy at e side of e road.
seems like he was wounded.
ok not 'seems', coz evidently theres a wound on e left side of his cheek- roughly 2 20cent coins put together side by side.
too lazy to stop n ask since e driver(P-plater) n his fren were already there tending to him.
so instead of jogging thru e park, i went ard it n along it.
YES, its still e scary foggy deserted path.
n the weird thing was,
i came across this handmade wooden signboard which stated:
WANTED
HARDCORE
Chestnut Ave L.P. 48
wonder wat tat meant.
as i peered into e Chestnut Ave from afar, all i could see was pitch black in e middle and no one in sight.
seems like one of those uninhabitated construction roads.
but oh wells, enough of that.
PIE was to my left, so i veered right towards Dairy Farm road.
scary scary path.
n there i found another signboard hammered into e grass.
n nope, didnt find any Old huts as stated by SPI down scary path covered by trees.
from there, i reached e main road n turned left towards Trinity Theological College n Salvation Army.
headed down further toward Rail Mall where i found nice supper hangouts!
n ohh, Coffeebean there is 24hrs. PROVEN.
Ran past the old bukit timah fire station and Bukit Batok Nature Park.
n i found a kiwi on e floor. lol
ran past bukit timah nature reserve.
and towards King Albert's park Mac.
tempting, but not yet.
crossed e junction towards beauty world plaza n jogged past Pei Hwa Pri n towards....
AL ALMEEN N AL AZHAR!!!
TEMPTING!!!!
den from there i zoomed past Courts and e 3 competitive Petrol Stations side by side.
n back to e foot of Bukit Batok Nature Park.
n here comes e even more scary part.
i noe my left eye has been twitching for an hr or so,
n my head is feeling light.
but somehow as i trod on e walkway,
with only glimpses of light peeking thru e trees,
my right hand suddenly gave an extreme twitch!
like it's some spasmic reaction tat resulted in my wrist turning outwards 45degrees!
disregarding tat incident, i ran back all e way to Rail Mall n past AES where a bunch of angmohs (i think) on the other side of the road were waving to me!
when i meant a bunch, i meant like at least 10 of them!
haha, so fun!
den as i passed by e shophouses after Shell,
i ran past this BJ Karaoke Lounge with 3 social escorts sitting ard a table nearby.
den a guy emerged from e shady bar n was immediately approached by one of them.
didnt bother to look further.
n alas,
home was in sight.
phew.
reached back at 2.15am.
undoubtedly e 2nd longest run in my entire life!
longest ever waS e 21km Army Half Marathon which took me 2hrs n ard 16mins.
so judging from my timing, i'd say i ran ard..
18 or 19km?
n tat'll b like runnin past Ngee Ann poly or SIM.
i think jus 15mins more n i'll reach NUS!
hahaha.
perhaps i jus wanted to prove to my own self tat i could endure.
n i did!
but den again,
wat's this compared to my own race.
my race of a lifetime?
wats this measly 2hr compared to tat?
can i even run it with patience?
God willing.

The War of the Brains
The two brains not only see the world in vastly different ways but, in our current society, the left side just "doesn't get" what the right side is all about. It tends to dismiss anything significant coming into consciousness from its "flaky" cranial twin. Sometimes two sides can actually disagree, resulting in our perception of emotional turmoil from the expressive protests of right brain.
Our conscious mind can only focus on data from one brain at a time. We can switch from one side to the other very quickly (with our corpus collosum intact) but that's not always the most efficient way to act and eventually ultimate authority to enter consciousness is delegated to one brain or the other. In our modern world, this battle is almost always won by the left brain.
It appears that most people will never reach their maximum potential because of compromises that have been made between these two governing bodies. Sometimes skills which the right brain can perform better are routinely handled, with less skill, by the left brain. Ideally, both brains work together in people with optimum mental ability. This coordinating ability may be the key to superior intellectual abilities. In most people, however, the left brain takes control, choosing logic, reasoning and details over imagination, holistic thinking and artistic talent.
Methods have been devised to "shut off" the left brain, allowing the right side to have its say. Creative writing courses often use this method to combat "writer's block." The right brain is then able to "sneak" into our consciousness, filling our minds with emotional and visual vignettes and freely associated images. All too quickly, though, the left brain will assert itself and dispense with these irrational images, asserting its Spock-like logical dominance and the right brain will have to be content to find expression in dreams.

Flow
"Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own,
and let it grow, be like water.
Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water.
Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup;
You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle;
You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot.
Water can flow or it can crash.
Be water, my friend."
weird person this is.

runnin'
wats my race?
can i faithfully run it?
urgh i still remem last yr, this very notion kept me going on too.
to run this race with all due diligence and patience.
but look at me now,
wat am i doing?
where am i going?
which direction?
wat race am i running again.
urgh, to press on is truly difficult.
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him
endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."
Hebrews 12:1-2
psalms 143 eh?
yeah, sure i'll read it. =]

watching plastic bags flying ard,
trees being
and e vending machine and cupboards at e mamashop downstairs being toppled over.
this is e very face of nature tat currently describes my being.
temperature's dropping to a 20 odd degrees now
as i continue to gaze upon all that is ard me.
tiny drops of water speckle my hand as i slowly extend it out of my window.
the 1st sign.
a sudden flash of light illuminating e night sky.
the 2nd sign.
the increase in decibels of the pitter-patter upon my window sill.
the 3rd.
a roar from the heavens.
4th.
dad says it wun rain tat heavily n for long,
but i reckon it might.
lets jus wait and see a lil longer.
lets see if his yrs of age-old experience or my yrs of riding experience will win this contest.
by now, those trees down there have been nicely massaged and watered,
the ground made moist.
n tat means no jogging for me later.
our attention now deviates from what's happening outside to the Planet Earth programme on ch8 as we marvel at the glowing worms tat spit out that insect-binding silk, deep deep down in e underground caves.
sigh, guess wat?
terrible winds hav blown away every evidence of rainclouds, leaving behind e sweet scent of the rain, and the coolness of it thereof.
yes, i lost.
but im not at all concerned.
what matters most is tat interaction we had.
one last glance out reveals e occasional dimming out of lights.
the town's sliding off to bed.
n so shall i.
gd nite Singapore.
-edit-
on a final note,
it's raining.
so i havent lost after all...
^^
Wednesday, 22 April 2009
all those secret little thoughts tat go wandering ard my head.
it's jus all e weird circumstances tat hold me back.
or isit just tat i dun want to be heard?
yes, i'll rather remain silent.
i cant help it but be inert.
to protect myself.
protect myself from all e harm i can receive.
from all e hurt tat i might inflict.
n all other chain reactions tat i might set off.
to keep me sane every single day.
n no.
no one else but me n my Lord shd know.

simply AWESOME!
what more can i say?
went out to e floor for our comp many many many uncountable times til we didnt noe wat event was next.
all we knew was, our number's in, we're NEXT!!!
oh e bliss of being in e finals,
someplace where 2 noobs have ventured far in.
no regrets for sure.
n yes, e stage, the crowd, the lights, the floor and the mood were in perfect blend.
though hearts were thumping,
but we enjoyed ourselves.
rite, kaii?
thanks partner for the wonderful performances!
thanks for those who supported too!
*anw, pay up pay up! im broke*
am tired, sick, and utterly contented.

of utensil-less wanton mee n packed ice milo.
of black diamonds and rainbow-ed ones.
all i need now is a lightbulb above my head and some hibernation to get me thru.

i muz hav been crazy.
ride out, spot scenery, awed while riding, stop at busstop, whip out cam, 'ka-chak'!, continue on homeward journey.
lolz

bah, i miss those old times together.
u noe, sometimes our human mind jus cant help but keep thinking bout e past.
but its not unnecessarily a bad thing.
it shows us how far we've come.
n yeap, abit of reminiscing does one gd i believe.
i recently went thru my previous entires dated 4 yrs ago.
n i found many truths tat might hav forgotten now!
really thankful tat i've kept this blog for so long.
talk about long lost dreams and deja vus.
somehow, these entries helped me to relive my memories.
jus judging from my manner of speech yrs ago,
it feels all too certain tat ive changed much too.
(i think i used to sound like some ah seng too)
though i miss tat happy-go-lucky n carefree attitude i used to hav.
but den again, it doesnt mean its advantageous either.
anw, jus tot of a verse as i ready myself to embrace my place of solace.
1 Corinthians 10:23
"All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not."
we are allowed to do anything under e sun, no restrictions, jus tat we gotta take note whether each of our actions actually does benefit us or others. or whether it stumbles others.
n i guess this verse has kept me thinking for a while now...

2nd wind
am now Log IC of Church Choir.
well, nth to boast off but lotsa work to do.
a new responsibility in my hands. pray tat i'll b able to meet up to His expectations ya?
i truly need my Divine magnifying glass now.
gotta focus my vision not in front of me, but up above me.
perhaps all these while, my range of vision has been fluctuating within 45 degrees from e horizon level.
guess it's time now for this puny little me to face the greater truth up there.
all i visualize right now is this bird's eye view from out there in e dark cold space, zooming in all e way billions of times jus in order to spot this 'me'.
now, think it from my POV.
from bottom up.
i can foresee such a huge barrier to overcome.
a long hurdle for me to jump over.
a huge effort to b invested.
the road will be long.
with all my packed bags of burden,
i trod this path, but not alone.
"For Thou art with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me"
at times though, i may have to hitch a ride on the Saviour Express when im beat and cast down.
I may need to take e wheel, to learn how to drive.
even aft i do, I know not which path im supposed to take.
I may turn left and right.
I may bump.
but i pray tat it's not going to put me down.
i hav to grow stronger,
to be the invisible wind tat blows e kite up high.
to bring it higher n higher, upwards towards the sunny skies.
i, have to bring forth, my second wind.

Wat time isit now?
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
1To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

Vday report
wats e reason for ppl to celeb vday?
i mean, when u can always show tat special care every other day.
y restrict it to this very day?
weirdness.
1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
jus kinda remembered this verse for today.
how often it is to hear stories all ard where ppl are afraid of this n that.
how isit possible to fully eradicate fear?
den so, we are all not perfect in love (even me),
but only thru the grace of God.
how difficult it is to truly love someone.
John 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
not even talking about loved ones and family,
wat about friends who arent related by blood.
r we even willing to sacrifce our lives for them?
saying is one thing, doing is another.
when the time comes, we'll b 'spoilt-for-choice'
am i willing?
well, to me i kinda treat my life as a flimsy piece of paper.
i feel... dispensable.
(not e suicidal sense but rather, im more of the 'Others-person' den the 'self-person')
so i guess its kinda worth it to exchange this for another's life ya?
n besides, isnt heaven a much more
heh!
lol
anw,
my sis' reply on fb got me thinking again.
yep, im really waiting for e time to move outta e house.
n i guess my sis has been enduring since she was in sec sch.
tats like almost more den half of her life!
somehow, i feel tat me n my sis are the only sane ones in our family.
we feel... 'different'
n tats wat connects us both.
i cant really affirm / shout it out loud tat i love my family.
n i guess, because of this reason, i dun feel qualified to love another.
i mean, if u dun even love ur family, y makes u think u have e means to love a stranger?
n this stupid reason kinda crumbled my sis' 1st r/s while she was in sec sch.
1 John 2: 9 - 11
9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.
perhaps i hav been n will b walking in more darkness.
sigh, i really wonder and marvel at how joyful a family gathering can be.
i've nvr been enthusiastic about family gatherings, and if poss, i would avoid them.
i hav no idea how ppl will look forward to them.
i've nvr experienced e joy.
TAT joy which i experienced while having a meal with other's families last yr.
its really tat something warm n fuzzy.
e true meaning of a home which i've nvr felt b4.
the conversations ard the dining table...
e laughter.
e smiles.
i dun hav any memory of it all.
okok,
all in all,
perhaps i dun love my family at all.
weird eh?
ok, wat a strange ending this post has.
anw to top it off,
i'll end it with a song (and a note)
since today is Vday,
Thanks to all who made my life special.
U noe who u are or wat u've done.
thanks so much!
ur love is appreciated! ^^
------------------------------------------------------------
Sweeter As the Years Go By
Of Jesus' love that sought me, when I was lost in sin;
Of wondrous grace that brought me back to His fold again;
Of heights and depths of mercy, far deeper than the sea,
And higher than the heavens, my theme shall ever be.
Chorus:
Sweeter as the years go by, sweeter as the years go by,
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter,
Sweeter as the years go by.
He trod in old Judea life's pathway long ago;
The people thronged about Him, His saving grace to know;
He healed the broken hearted, and caused the blind to see;
And still His great heart yearneth in love for even me.
'Twas wondrous love which led Him for us to suffer loss,
To bear without a murmur the anguish of the cross;
With saints redeemed in glory, let us our voices raise,
Till Heav'n and earth re-echo with our Redeemer's praise.
------------------------------------------------
of everything out there,
Jesus' love is sweeter.
i hope i can experience it too. =X
and ya, sorry i cant fulfil tat promise with you...

breaking free
tried hard ytd nite but managed to slip abit of time inside.

n like theres only 4 weeks more to go!
stressed stressed...
lotsa things to do... lotsa commitments.

i guess not tat soon ya...
anw, im off to sch!

wahahaha.
need sleep in e reading room!
Friday, 6 February 2009
ard sg yet again
e outskirts of East Coast Park,
Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal,
Changi Beach Park,
NSRCC Safra Resort,
Jurong West
and finally back home.
thats like 60plus km. (or mayb 70)
lolz.
exit4b is where i wanna be.
havent been travelling ard for a long time.
feels gd to b on the road though.
the intense cool breeze that beats against ur body
really makes u wanna race thru it.
anw, glad to see many of my juniors this very night.
chatted lots on all e mishaps and misadventures of e new batches n wat happened when we left.
more quirky and 'niang' juniors.
less of them playing 'piank' (read: "punk")
but jus downright outrageous.
imagine one who excreted in his pants aft being shouted at.
reminded me lots of all e stunts we used to pull in e earlier days.
my classic example would be e sleep-under-computertable-in-office act.
n oso my 'long-hair' act too.
wat to do.. my hairs on e back of my neck jus grow faster den my moustache can ever get.
somehow, i kinda feel like having a shaved head once again.
jus a thought!
oh wells, my vocation is gonna be disbanded, outsourced from companies outside e army.
meaning, no more army NSFs for Physical Training Instructors and Close Combat Instructors.
mayb California fitness is gonna take over tat job.
but im glad to hav been part of that organisation,
for the memories it brings me,
n the bonds ive made.
no, not those bonds that my junior is trying to sell me now,
but rather, the connection of our hearts and minds brought together thru hardship and passion,
of fun times and times where we do saikang together.
'mingle' ard and 'play' with each other.
lolz, sounds wrong.
but yep, tats all e hidden stuff we do behind closed doors.
not e usual toughness we show during lessons though. HEH!
its been a yr now,
since i've wore green.
part of me wishes to go back to those carefree days.
(YES, army IS carefree for me)
the only times where 99% of e ppl ard are guys.
Think muscles, sweat and energy and gym. (nope not leotards)
the only times where girls didnt really matter.
(sounds more wayward now)
ANW, more tuts for me to complete!
am thinkin of how to modify the existin rumba routine too.
Comp in 5 weeks!
hope I'll b ready by den.
hmmmm, Grade D?
dun think im up THERE yet,
but arrgh,
jus go for it!

Dancing King, young and suave, only 21~ (lolz)
boss Fadly aint free since tml's got L.I.F.E run.
cant go for servicing there.
kinda miss Aqua(Ah-Gua) Lane's Ice Milo and Ramli Burgers!!!
ahhhaa!
n e occasional trannies who pop by now and den.
anw, i havent rode thru e new JB checkpoint yet.
the other time i travelled with my bare legs, it took more den half an hour jus to get thru it!
super windy (read: whine-dee) routes and a whole waste of space. i prefer the rundowned version of it.
kinda suits it better, n more 'straight-to-the-point' then its current state.
anw,
i've been intro-ed this new song by Wilson.
my new earworm for e moment!
n thanks to it, im contemplating to learn Tango too!!
n presently i think e Argentine Tango i briefly learnt is kinda stylish and classy!
hope i hav e chance to further explore its world.
here's the official MV with lyrics:
earworm...earworm...
n oh hey! im gonna learn a lil of salsa tml too!!!
lets see wat ive learnt/am gonna learn so far:
Cha cha
Rumba
Jive
Samba
(teenie wee bit of Paso Doble)
Argentine Tango
Locking
Salsa (tml)
Waltz (mon)
Popping (nxt wed!)
n Tango might b e nxt best thing!
let's see, there's still Lindyhop, Tap Dancing tat i wanna learn too!
anw, i didnt watch my 2 hr Rumba vid ytd,
shall do so in a few mins!!!
Wednesday, 28 January 2009
im kinda back home from a locking lesson!
next week im gonna pop!
ahaha.
ok, my wed nites are gonna b busy too.
along with mon and tues and fri nites.
but hey! i still hav my thur nights to myself!
wahahaha.
u noe, some really old quote kinda popped up into my head 2 nights ago while bathing.
"Unless I grip the sword, I can not protect you. While gripping the sword I can not embrace you."
cant remem where i got it from though.
so i guess im kinda living it out ya...
with my tkd, i can protect.
with my dance, i embrace.
...errrrrrrr...
yeah u get e idea.
now tat i think back upon it, it's a really weird outcome tat im in now.
im like touching on the Arts scene inch by inch.
1st was drawing n painting.
next is martial ARTS. (still considered an ART okay)
den comes physical artistic expressions.
wat's next?
musical/vocal instruments?
my miniscule dreams of violin/piano/guitar/bass arent diminished yet.
but i guess those dreams wun be fulfilled tat soon yet.
n tat means i still dun hav e means to serenade others.
hahaha
looking back further,
my life has been a life of reverse psychology.
esp to my parents.
im almost not whatever they want me to b.
n im totally different to their likes and attributes and char.
they love all sorts of seafood but not me.
dun forget abalone and other tonics too.
n basically almsot every kind of edible items tat can be popped into their mouth.
although i think i got many bad genes from them too.
haha.
rite, cant wait to pop nxt week too!
im off for more tuts and a 2hr vid watching!
signing off.

kurosaki
me getting stalked?
no probs!
jus call 1800-STALK -'EM-BACK,
tats, 1800-77255-136-2225!
(ok doesnt sound like a valid num anw)
n oh! i havent da sao chu yet!!!
sigh, my sat is gonna b spent at home clearing out old stuff n junk, which i dun think i'll hav much.
so, rumba or no rumba?
i'd say go for it!
e more e merrier!
wahahaha.
well, it's time to cut down on my other stuffs too.
like wat Christie said, better time management requires discipline n e heart to keep it.
n i admit this entire week has been rather poorly spent.
could hav made more out of it if i wanted to.
anw, im on bad terms with self-discipline, but i jus gotta get to noe him more, ya?
*nods head*
actually, im kinda pondering y i set my timetable this awfully.
830 lessons in e morn for 4 days?
thank God it's not all 5!
am feeling e bliss with a 1230 lesson today!
n on a side note, im craving for cup noodles now. HEH!
ok to prove tat im not the only illogical one, try this urself:
Convert the following to if-then statements (i.e., the conditional) form,
- Fix my aircon or I won’t pay the rent.
Wat's ur answer?
If you fix my aircon then I will pay the rent. ...?
If so, you are terribly wrong!
the answer is:
If I pay the rent then you will fix my aircon.
Surprised? don't be. tats jus a miniscule part of e course im taking now.
you understand it?
if u do, CONGRATS!!!
u ARE logical!
if not errr...
anw, sleep time! blessed CNY to all!
$-$ <--- money-faced! =X
Wednesday, 21 January 2009
err... huh...?
anw, some workshops n concerts n competition comin up.
lemme noe if u wanna go, esp for e workshop. limited spaces only!


sigh, competition will b on 14th March, and e nxt day is e JDC.
wat a busy weekend tat'll b!
zzz.
n i tot it'll b 1 week apart.
lots of labour-intensive lab sessions to complete this sem.
it feels like a total upgrade from last sem's!
last sem's was jus normal labs, creating programs n jus save it in e lab com.
this sem's feels like assignments from last sem, only every week.
crazy stuff this is.
ANW, i love the windy cool season tat encompassed SG!
jus tat i always wake up in shudders and more shivers!
alright, time for tuts and labs!
ooooh ooh, lemme noe when u guys wanna meet up too! will try to make some space on my busy busy busy schedule specially for u peeps!
wahahahaa!
Wednesday, 14 January 2009
shleepee
been in sch these 2 days for more den 12 hours each.
830am lessons just dun do any justice.
*RANT RANT RANT*
sigh, gotta go recap on wat i learnt last sem.
programming lab sessions are jus there for me to get used to e new editor im gonna use.
n it's such a HASSLE!
unlike e previous one where u jus open, create, save, compile, run.
this is SOOOSOOOSOOOOO confusing me!
all e subfolders of junk n all...
n tml's gonna b yet another long day again.
need a bike repair, need a haircut, need sleep.
havent really gotten a comfy aftnoon's nap for ages.
i feel so rushed!
argh.
Tuesday, 13 January 2009
had a really terrible pain in my stomach for e whole of sunday aftnoon.
i think it was from 1230pm til 10pm.
couldnt nap it away, as it bugged me as i twirled ard on bed.
i nvr knew wat it was.
Gastric? well, it happened jus aft my refreshments at 12, n besides, i could still eat 3 servings during Choir lunch gathering!
n it's like at e top part of my tummy. like jus centimetres below my solar plexus.
weirdo ache.
had a ultimately long day today.
had lessons from 830 til 1030am. n aft tat was jus 'camping' in the Interim Reading Room for ard 7 hrs b4 going for FCM.
n like im gonna hav my 1st lab of e yr at 830am later!
[YA! im having 830 lessons almost everyday except thurs!
n tat means im stuck in e morning rush, n i always hav to squeeze in thru e traffic which i hate!
my danger levels hav increased 4-fold!]
anw, i finally scanned wat i drew near e end of last yr

much more to work on but i guess this is a gd start ya?
anw, gotta catch some sleep to focus on my journey to sch later. zzz
need His providence!
Saturday, 10 January 2009
but its so PRETTY!

heres how it looks like when it's closed.

WOAH...
anw, my Starhub contract will end this mon. n i hav my sights on a Samsung G400!!!
n here's how my new phone will look like!!!

cant wait for e Starhub festive deals. hope they hav better promos den now!
my current Hp is giving me lots of probs.
some buttons dun work, n i cant use if i slide it down!
sigh.
oh wells, it has served me pretty well over the past 2 yrs!
its a pretty versatile HP!
fast, interactive, slide-o-matic, and i LURVE the LED torch light!
hope e Samsung has one too!
YAY, my bro's fren finally returned me my PS2 aft a few months of DDR-ing with it.
so here i am, back to e PS2 classics! gotta finish my FFXII and Tales of the Abyss.
WHEE~
anw, to add to e list of DSA's got Talent,
we have:
1 who can get 3 or more drinks for e price of 1 from a vending machine,
2 portable, walking massagers,
3 aspiring photographers,
4 choir peeps,
and many spastic ppl.
and techno tango seems rather quirky to me too.
anw, 1st week of sch is really gd.
no labs, no tuts, n i somehow think dancing takes up more time den e time for me to be in lectures!
astronomy is VERY interesting too!
(other den e fact of them mentioning tat we're made from star stuff, from e big bang. n tats how e Earth formed. and tat life on earth came from somewhere else, hitching a ride on an asteroid and crashed into earth. n TA-DAAA!! you n me were born!)
so far it's jus nebulae and eclipses. i wonder wats in store for e nxt lect!

old life, new life
N tats ages ago..
'Seven pounds', a truly inspirational movie.
Keeps me thinking n pondering bout it all e way home.
"wat i could do with my puny little life to influence others? Wat difference i could have made?"
n these few weeks hav been a recap-ing of 2008. Lots of thoughts and reflections swirling ard.
(Sorry for e long faces and quiet moments)
I was playing the 'What if' game.
What if my life could start over, wat were the many things tat i could change in my life.?
What if i could time travel, wat would e 'present me' tell the 'past me', or others ard me in order to change my future?
What if we could start over, what were the things tat we could have skipped or added?
What would be the 'ideal' future for me?
im not saying tat im sad with my present, nor happy with it.
but jus wondering how life could play out differently from wat it is now.
Imagine moments of sadness changed to joy.
Pain and anguish to happiness and smiles.
Have u ever thought bout tat?
someone ever asked me, if i would rather skip an entire chapter of pure bliss and sorrow, or would i have decided to go thru it instead.
I could not give an answer then...
i guess, i would not have learnt so much or appreciated so much if i didnt enter tat chapter of my life.
things are different now.
times changed.
n all i can do is walk forward bravely to my unknown future.
to live a life of no regrets.
n i guess aft talking so much,
i remem a quote, "instead of looking inward (or backward), we shd look upwards instead."
how very true it is.
i wonder how much more i can change in 2009.
more, more trials!
wrestle me too!
and i guess, e first step starts with a new phone.
all those 700+ SMSes...
oh well, sch reopens tml.
a new year, a new life.
how's it gonna turn out?
beats me. im curious too.
Wednesday, 31 December 2008
"Take care."
yes i do noe tat biking IS dangerous,
but sometimes i take His grace for granted.
perhaps im riding too recklessly again.
many ppl i noe of hav met with accidents.
tat PTI during army, whose funeral i almost had to EmCee at.
my army junior who skidded in e middle of e night at 4am with no traffic ard n entered into a coma.
n now this.
2 Grade A dancers whom i admire got into a crash last tues. tat guy got into a coma and passed away on boxing day.
it's really quite sad to see how ppl's lives are jus taken away in an instant.
n now im contemplating to get a new bigger bike.
or perhaps i shd keep to my old 100km/h restriction.
gotta take note of my mentality n attitude when i ride.
n most imptantly, pray always b4 i ride.
so Sam, u sure u wanna take up riding lessons now???
2009 will b a yr for me to change many aspects in my life.
it'll b another yr of frequent trials n testings i hope. (coz it's frm there tat we all learn to grow stronger)
much more responsibilities.
much less time.
n i gotta discern both current and future decisions with all due wisdom, whether it counts as black or white.
i guess i may not join DSA's main comm aft all. (still unclear)
many more commitments in this coming yr.
having competition,
having club performance.
having fusion dance performance which i agreed to today.
might start chairing YPF, not only jus mem verse.
might possibly b in e YPF exco as well.
(jus hope im not the new coordinator of FCM too)
n studies, which is gonna get more demanding as e yrs pass.
this sem's results might jus b a one-off event.
it's not wat i'll always get throughout Uni.
i jus hope tat i'll not gloat, since it really wasnt by my merit but by His grace.
but shall continue to persevere on to strive towards perfection as i do my best for Him.
Study hard, play hard, pray hard!
im gonna need lots of encouragement and prayer.
n u noe wat to do, rite?
Thanks peeps!
Monday, 29 December 2008
results werent TAT bad after all!!!
phewie!
hope my future exams will pull up my grades!
though it sounds pretty tough to.
anw, finally a not-so-busy week lies ahead of me.
hope i can really take this time to slack n rest more.
get in touch n commune more with someone i owe my whole entirety to.
coz without Him, I couldnt hav done anything at all.
so THANK YOU LORD!!!
and on a sidenote, personally i kinda hate 'trial and error' scenarios.

Christmas isnt Christmas...~
it's Christmas!
but it doesnt feel like Christmas at all!
cant feel the mood gushing out of me.
but it's really fun to go carolling!
singing and eating and singing and eating! (and abit of rumba as a sidetrack)
ive nvr really been to those choir kinda carolling before but i guess it would b kinda nicee to listen to since they're all from choir, rite???
n we've got new choreography from Shawn!
it's e 3rd one and i hope we're gonna stick to it.
instead of changing it like e previous 2.
hmmm, argentine tango... seems pretty unique to me!!!
fun to learn i guess.
today's Christmas service was fantastic.
i love the song we sang: The First Noel / Pachebel's Canon
and i love the korean worship service's item with flutes and trumpets and their hearts in the song.
almost moved me to tears.
den we went for an informal carolling session at michelle tee's house.
n more more carolling tml!
whee~
shall finish my report soon i hope.
n i really miss my cam!!!
its been away for close to 2 weeks!!!
anw,
BLESSED CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!
Saturday, 13 December 2008
feels great to be back!
but on e otherhand, somehow i wish i was away...
wat a contradiction.
nah...
got lotsa stuff to do even during hols.
n i guess i cant keep doing wat ive been doing all these while.
jus had a mini wake-up call to reality aft im back.
i gotta sort them all out. defrag them to the finest details.
no more avoiding or musking it.
n i need lots of wisdom and strength for this heart-over-mind, mind-over-heart matter.
3 weeks left to take a break n ponder over it b4 my mind gets preoccupied with schwork again.
i know not wat step i shd take right now.
Guide my path, O Lord
Saturday, 6 December 2008
Keep on dancing
Take my hand, take a breath
Pull me close and take one step
Keep your eyes locked on mine,
And let the music be your guide.
[Troy, Gabriella]
Won't you promise me (now won't you promise me, that you'll never forget)
We'll keep dancing (to keep dancing) wherever we go next
(chorus)
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance
[Troy]
Take my hand, I'll take the lead
And every turn will be safe with me
Don't be afraid, afraid to fall
You know I'll catch you through it all
[Troy, Gabriella]
And you can't keep us apart (even a thousand miles, can't keep us apart)
'Cause my heart is (cause my heart is) wherever you are
(chorus)
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance
[Gabriella And Troy]
Oh no mountains too high enough, oceans too wide
'Cause together or not, our dance won't stop
Let it rain, let it pour
What we have is worth fighting for
You know I believe, that we were meant to be
(chorus)
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you (like you)
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do (way we do)
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance
Can I have this dance
Can I have this dance
well, almost though.
met feng jus now to pass me a box of ferrero - which was supposed to be for me since oct but i accidentally left it under his care one sunday and kinda forgot to take it back frm him.
den from there we went to e Guardian pharmacy to buy some Opsite spray for his papercut.
den as we walked out e pharmacy, some staff was shouting at me frm behind.
den i suddenly realised i had a box of chocs with me in my hand.
n as i looked to e left, there was a stack of ferreros on display.
oh oh~
but fortunately, i asked them to check e security cams n oso told them tat e production dates were diff (coz mine was bought in oct. heh)
fortunately, e manager was kind enough to let me go without a hassle.
PHEW~
but weirdly i wasnt tat panicky or wat. oddly enough i was still chit chatting happily with feng!
oh well, anw, he's going for e Standard Chartered tml.
(as a masseuse, not a runner)
and i believe papercuts and massage oil on e patron's sweaty legs dun really mix rite?
hope he doesnt come back with an infected finger though. hee

but i guess we were all zonked out during e 2nd half of Wall.E
Kai xuan was like 'oh man, i wanna watch it but my eyes kept closing'
but we 2 brave guys ventured forward, denying our sense of exhaustion and completed e entire movie while remaining our mental sanity.
wat a lovely movie!

it was like 9am when we filled our stomachs with food.

press on, my dear phone!

"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us"

oh n of course tat 1 huge satellite.

not even my ice milo could do e trick...
nvm...

The good seed on the land,
But it is fed and watered
By God's almighty hand:
He sends the snow in winter,
The warmth to swell the grain,
The breezes and the sunshine,
And soft, refreshing rain.
Refrain:
All good gifts around us
Are sent from heaven above;
Then thank the Lord,
O thank the Lord,
For all his love.
He only is the maker
Of all things near and far;
He paints the wayside flower,
He lights the evening star;
The winds and waves obey him,
By him the birds are fed;
Much more to us, his children,
He gives our daily bread.
Refrain
We thank thee then, O Father,
For all things bright and good,
The seed time and the harvest,
Our life, our health, our food.
No gifts have we to offer
For all thy love imparts,
But that which thou desirest
Our humble, thankful hearts.
Refrain

tired weekends...
was busy making a fool of myself
+ scaring each other to bits with tales laced with horror and a little bit of quirkiness.
+ enjoying such a sumptuous and healthy steamboat at e 'ter kua' table (which i apparantly did not eat any! WAHAHHAA)
[ok, on a sidenote, how do u romanise that word!?
according to MrBrown, here are e nominees!
| Tur Kwa | 1417 | |||||
| Tur Gua | 612 | |||||
| Ter Kwa | 1405 | |||||
| Ter Gua | 652 | |||||
total votes: 4086 | ||||||
with 'Tur Kwa' as e top emerging contestant!
'Ter Kwa follows closely behind by only 12 votes!!!!]
+ taking lots of snapshots of random stuff like creepy Hall attics
+ doing e limbo rock (both over and under)
+ playing cluedo & Daidee (which i only won twice...)
+ playing Hotel 626!!! (any freakier webbies??)
+ watching more vids
+ eating breakfast at 8am+
+ sleeping at 9am and waking at 230pm
+ watching Armaggedon in a 'shutting down' state
+ finally concussing at 1am...
anw,
am somewhat done with all other stuff.
No more assignments n speeches!
it's time to fully concentrate for my exams!!
ROARRR!!!!
oh oh,
my HP is spoilt too.
sometimes it'll give a blank white screen.
sometimes there are red marks everywhere.
sometimes e screen will split into 2 parts with e right half being black n white like those static u get on tv. the other half will b colourful like those neon lights but u totally cant see a thing.
time to change a new phone?
i hope not... i kinda like this phone since im pretty much used to it already.
new SE phones hav diff navigational systems which are, in summary, unnecessary.
yeah, although mine is fat but there's LOTS of saved smses inside tat i dun wanna delete.
hope mine is repairable though...
anw, Time to MUG for real!!!
all e best to those having O's now,
and also to those having exams in a few weeks time!
(GAWRSH, i gotta re-Grasp my english skills after all those Singlish-speaking in green. Yes, even in RP.)
