i fumble up like always!!!
i go blank.
i make mistakes.

old bad habits still not conquered.
n everything jus seems sooooo wrong.

im so darn tired of it.
stupid old mistakes jus keep coming back.
even if i give my all, it's still not enough!
it feels so painful tat i feel like giving up.
im just not gd enough.
i muz admit, my expectations of myself are high.
i wanna see some change.
i dun wanna be stagnant.
i wanna grow too.
conquer myself n my weaknesses.
but it jus aint happening!
pissed. PISSED.
my smile jus turned upside down.
*edit*
i will.. I WILL CONQUER THIS PEAK! ROARS!!!!!

the Definition
1) the calmness of the morn
2) e usual weird antics of ShoeBox
3) some partially irritating coursemate to currently mug with
4) getting 28/30 for an algo test. (like finally aft failing all others)
5) confirmation of internship
6) did my calls and was shown hospitality by some agents (except one who muttered a 'nabei' as he ended the call)
guess these are all settled. wats left is e comp and exams.
so what made u happy this morn?

Outsourcing
not jus low but devoid of both intrinsic n extrinsic motivation.
had to drag my @$$ all e way to sch early early in e wee hrs of e morn to force myself to study.
it takes extreme measures to get some input into my head, for better output in 10 days' time.
i,
i'm gonna sleep in sch.

ANW, jus a pic of my long-gone toenails.

YAY! it's been a LOOOONG time since i started waking up at 6am.
hard to adjust to e fact tat everything's still dark even after sleepin.

Creeper
e lines between it and reality was blurred so much tat i actually confused it with reality and almost got swayed by it.
anw, life's been tough after recess week.
every deadline jus comes caving in. time's been spent on completing them but my studies hav been neglected. my saved energy bank is near depletion le. i tried to tap on it for e previous few weeks n survived at the bare minimum. i really need an escapade but i dun hav e time.
zzz, how i wish i could go overseas like everone else.
BAH, nvm, i shall stay contented to having not wasted my time doing nth!
busy busyness is a gd thing... aint it not?

Dis-connection
Its really scary to see one familiar scene after another, n when it all flows into reality, u'll noe tat lost photograph in ur memory comes back from e depths to haunt u.
*edit*
[and yet another precognitive image flashed past at 250909 1635hrs. SCARY ><"]
anw, i shortcircuited the lab twice,
destroyed all traces of some student's hardwork (i think),
caused a commotion,
heard heavy breathing at the back of the lab,
laid another's head down on the table in despair.
e 2nd time came when i plugged in my adapter again into e adjacent powerpoint this time.
all clear at first.
n when e other end of adapter came in contact with laptop,
*bzzzt, bzzzzt*, power down.
-_____-
apologised much n went down to 8 flags computer shop where they declined to try out my adapter.
Hum ji.
lolz.
called NEC jus to find out tat adapter is warranted for 3 yrs.
GOOD.
tried it at another powerpoint outside LT 22.
was expecting a huge blackout n power failure.
expectation violated.
went back to e shop, to ask them to really test it if possible.
rejection num 2.
went to Canteen B to try it out n this time hoping i could shut down e entire Canteen's power!
haha i feel so terrorist-empowered!
expectation violated num 2.
zzz.
it suddenly gets boring from here.
n now i finally gave up the thinking tat i had e ability to disrupt lectures and potentially destroy some lost of info sharing between internet users.
oh well, there's always some other way to cause mischief in sch.
i'm still thinking how.

the barrier
windy is gd, but not when coupled with rain.
most of the stuff more or less settled le.
unless they are procrastinated and left for another day.
ie, i havent touched my 'house' for a week already.
n now, new projects r coming in.
zzz.
feng came over today n thwarted all my plans.
Thanks arr, feng.
LOL.
yeah, but ok lah, i do need to relax once in a while.
killing multitudes of zombies kinda did e destressing trick .
yep somehow, i jus cant let my hair down everyday.
(not tat my hair is short -_-)
but jus tat, theres so many concerns n worries ard me.
i think im stiffening up.
my instincts tells me tat if left alone for mths,
i'll eventually live a reclusive life.
i'll definitely become hostile.
yeah, i think i jus outlived my happy-go-luckiness.
am trying hard to find it back
but my baggage weighs more than a ton.
my shield is up.
"En Garde" runs through my mind every once in a while.
it's heavy, but i cant put it down.
there's jus no time to rest.
gotta prod forward with each millisecond tat im entitled to.
i jus hope sometime soon a boulder will come crashing on me
(like how it jus squashed 2 of my AI teammates)
n THEN, perhaps i may reconsider taking a hiatus.

chocobos make me high!
it jus makes u go on further n further n further!
somehow im missing jogging with ppl.
or at least, with ppl tat i can pace with.
i've been kinda 'enlightened' last wed aft i jogged with e ppl from Calvary Pandan.
esp Zhongyan who ran uber uber fast!
tat esp kept me going to try to run as fast as him.
me've been only training steadily my speed, den stamina, den my speed.
nvr really tried e extremes.
(ok lah, except for me 20km jog one night. yes i was crazy)
but this was my extreme speed-intensive run.
*pauses*
motivating.
ah well,
1st, bath.
den comes clearing my hello-kittified camera of photos n vids.
it's totally filled to e brim!
den comes song cutting again.
n lastly, INTERIOR DESIGNING!!!!
WHEE~
ok shucks it's 12 now!
y cant we save 'time' into a bank n use it whenever we like?
hmmm, gotta invent a time-machine 1st.
nvm, as a comp scientist,
i shall build it in e VR world!
=X
Wednesday, 19 August 2009
im always pretty much braindead by 9pm already.
by reason of strength, it be til 12am,
it's definitely a miracle!
or adrenaline/sugar rushes from obsessively speeding n drinking highly-sugarnated ice milos.
anw,
i've got houses to build,
papers to mark,
tutorials to do,
many projects upcoming,
assignments n more...
such revelation introduced in e 2nd week already.

half a smile
but den again,
i muz say,
miracles DO happen!
when i heard bout e meteor shower jus hrs ago,
i really really wanted to see one!
well, at least it was my chance to be childish jus for once n make a wish at it.
when i got to my personal escape spot at ard 120am,
i realized there was still quite abit of light pollution ard.
but tat didnt deter me!
n aft straining my neck for 10mins,
n still no sign,
i kinda purposed in my heart tat i would not b so blessed to see any tonight.
145am was my deadline.
i stood,
i squatted,
i strained my neck further.
still no traces of meteors...
zzz.
all i got were lots of poofy clouds and lightning flashes at e northern horizon.
n e clouds coming from e southwest were rolling in pretty fast!
within mins, they overtook at least 25% of e nightsky.
tat simply diminshed my viewing pleasure by half.
but no matter, i was taking photographs of e beautiful half moon with its surrounding black clouds.
"Moonriver" started playing in my mind.
a smile etched itself onto my face.
i waited n waited.
den i told myself,
if i could ever see a meteor tonight,
it could only b a miracle.
as time drew past,
i was impatient.
i gave up all hope.
THEN, at 143am,
a flash jus hurried across e sky towards e direction i was facing!
it lasted a sec.
an entire whole second.
I WAS THRILLED!
but well, somehow it wasnt magical.
perhaps coz im jus viewing it alone.
there's no one to share tat experience with.
but i was reminded of the interpretation of my chi name.
just like a glimmer of hope, it burned brightly,
cutting thru e nightsky.
broadening tat smile in my heart.
i was thankful,
yet greedy.
while trotting back home across e carpark,
my gaze was up towards e heavens as i walked backwards.
i hoped for another.
but TOO BAD!
there was none else.
but it's okie!
im sastified.
=X
n now back home, all i can do is hope i wun hav insomnia again for the 6th nite in a row.
somehow im beginning to 'love' 830 lessons more n more.
Wednesday, 12 August 2009
all coz of e yr 3s n 4s who didnt add them in yr 2.
jus went to JB n back in about 1hr.
explored a new route from e customs towards Wong Ah Fook.
thankfully I was not lost.
phew.
traffic there wasnt as congested.
plus e customs had no queue!
mayb i shd jus go JB every wed aftnoon!
hahaha
breakfast... lunch... dinner... eveything go there bao ka liao.

yes, i noe, im still in e old tech when it comes to banking stuff.
e old grey POSB card is still being used since P sch i believe.
n my bankbook's a dull green colour.
muz hav been e aftermath of e primary sch saver's club thingy.

(yummy ice milo btw)

the moon still shines
finally bought ourselves a new vacuum cleaner!
now i really dun mind helping out with housework with this sexy sleek machine.
sporting solid bumblebee colours of yellow n black, it totally fits ShoeBox's litter box n scoop!
i think it can be counted under his property le!
tuition this morn was gd.
jus tat mayb coz it's e first time we've ever met,
tat kid, n even e mom (?!), seems kinda shy.
they seem like an awe-ful quiet bunch.
sch's starting today,
here comes my hellish nightmare of morn to night lectures n tutorials!
pray tat I'll hav energy to continue on thru e long days ahead.
i think i better buy a small pillow soon!
n find a small corner to sleep in!
happy academic yr 2009 - 2010 to fellow uni frens!
Monday, 10 August 2009
ShoeBox instinctively stared at me with his squinty-eyed glare.
it kinda reminded me of someone without glasses.
anw, i was reminded of a dream i had a long long time ago.
i guess perhaps only 1 other person in e world knew bout this special dream.
i hope u're reading this n knowing tat it's exclusively between me n you.
time seems to flow slowly,
grey silhouettes of faces flash pass as i run...
the only dream where i consciously teared as i awoke.
how reminiscent.
well, i do noe some dreams turn into reality.
ive had more den a couple of them already.
its more den jus cases of deja vu.
it's like, remembering e future prophesied in e past.
how amazing.
but i jus wonder...
will this,
this old dream resurface n appear in my future?
who knows?
time for bed,
tml morn's my 1st ever tuition.
PRAY FOR ME!

but off to sch i go yet again.

not a wink
was something bothering me??
wat could b on my mind?
or was it coz of e late nights?
i jus hope it's e latter.
7
like i said, i've been sleeping at 9am n 7am for e past 2 nights.
1 thing is tat i tried out Windows 7 Ultimate aft my bro bought it from JB.
nxt is tat i tried, for e umpteenth time to fix tat 'dead' tv tuner in my com.
oh well, i had e high hope of my touchscreen PC to function MUCH MUCH better with win 7 since it had better touch capabilities.
i was thinking of multi touch, like those on e iPhone/iTouch.
it was promisable!
it happened!
but not on my version of HP Touchsmart.
zzz.
only e newer versions get to enjoy such thrills.
stupid NextDriver, creating only drivers for mine which r incompatible with win 7.
anw, woke at ard 230pm on tues aft a loong gruelling "(dunno how many hrs) of waiting for 7 to install.
had to research e pros n cons of installing b4 actually getting down to it.
but aft 7 was done.
it looked marvellous!
remem Vista Ultimate allowed for Videos as desktop wallpapers?
this time 7 ultimate allows for a slideshow!
n has new operating sounds to boot!
chimes or funky tunes now available.
but i had to tweak n reinstall drivers etc.
esp tat audio splitter tat allowed for a 5.1 system. ^^
but all in all, i like this new OS.
faster den vista!
ok mayb jus a bit.
but well, arent things nice for a change?
only con is tat it hangs more often now.
seems like theres some discontinuity for my PC since certain inbuilt HP programs cant work with 7.
but well, things r getting better.
5.1 audio is jus so pleasant to e ears. =]
woke at 230pm with e thought of going swimming while e sun was hot.
(i havent done any swimming with e sun in e sky for mths!)
n gym too!
but aft delays from fried rice (YAAAARrrMM)
n petting kitty.
finally reach sch to return keys, draw keys, book rooms etc b4 heading to e overcrowded swimming pool where Student Union n Sports Club FOC were having their activities!
booked from 830 to 5pm!
zzzzzz
im NOT swimming in a pool tat has been overcrowded.
n i dun hav a hot bod like them, im shy! ><
so i headed for a gym from 4 toil 5 where i ran 2.4 on e treadmill at about 11mins i think.
a large amt of time was spent walking for warmup so i didnt noe how long i took oso.
did more stretching b4 its time to hit e metal!
n now my abdomen's so sour!
arms n legs too!
den i had this crazy idea aft gym.
i left my bags n bike back at e studio b4 walking to Macs at North Spine to buy dinner!
n it took me bout 45 mins to travel there, buy, and walk back.
now im appreciating my bike more!
yeah, so much time to spare, wat else to do.
so aft dinner i jus slept while waiting for ppl to come in.
n amazingly, long-time-no-seen ppl like Jeremy n Jane arrived!
n even Leyi, our long long ago senior.
haha.
ok lar, honestly even if no one arrived, i wouldnt sleep all e way.
i'll jus b bored tat there'll b no one else. tats all.
but yeap, i was struck in e back of my head when e msg tat my basics were deteriorating fell upon my ears.
i felt useless.
all those mths n i developed bad habits le.
for sure, irritation n frustration came fleeting by.
lost much confidence there too.
but yeah, most of e time, i feel REALLY stagnant.
or on a downhill.
i always come to think tat my partner is slowly becoming better n better but as for me, im not improving.
this gave me another strike on e back of my head.
i feel like a letdown.
i feel like im pulling her down when she could be much more den she could be.
discouragement persists...
but no, im gonna hav to prac harder, try harder n make sure i wun fall into e pits!
no matter how egoistic i may appear to be, i wanna b on par.
i dun wanna fall behind!
well, at least i dun wanna b a wet blanket.
but yeah, its jus so hard to overcome e physical barrier.
it takes lots n lots of drilling since i hav no talent in it.
(while for others, it seems all so natural for them. at times, im jealous.)
wat to do now when expectations r higher for us now tat we're at this junction n we cant meet up to them?
but perhaps have we been comparing with e wrong ppl?
nah i guess not.
since e ones we were comparing to were ourselves.
we still havent surpassed ourselves.
i wun deny it,
im weak.
im only a nobody who is dependable on my Lord to give me strength.
all blessings are from Him.
but sometimes i still cant shake off tat feeling tat my strength is not enough to overcome obtacles i face.
it feels, pitiful. (n definitely weak)
wat a clingy n bothering feel it is.
sometimes it's so disheartening to noe tat u've put in effort but e results dun show it.
im not usually a pessimist but sometimes my intuition tells me jus tat.
it shows me a downhill path frm henceforth.
more discouragement arises.
or perhaps im jus thinking too much now tat my brain is at rest from my studies.
yeah i think i am.
zzzzz.
it pays to be free sometimes.
anw, i had a great dinner aft Pop&Lock this aftnoon.
had to go down to Alexandra to collect my road tax n insurance from e bike shop there.
phew!
i made it in time!
it closed jus 25mins aft patronising them.
anw, met up with Wil, supposedly to go bike surveying, but since e shops closed, we still met up for dinner.
well, his supposed BS meeting was cancelled since everyone kinda disappeared n was uncontactable.
we ate Poached Salmon at Ikea!
it was fabulous!
totally loved e sauce topping tat enveloped e fish.
n wats more, free flow of drinks!
wheeee~!
yeah, aft tat i headed down to SnG at bugis aft stressing myself out on thinking of a way to reach there frm where i was.
yes, i forgot bout AYE(ECP).
i was sooooo worried tat i'll b late n reach aft e stipulated time of 9pm, but thank God tat e OIC, Freddy (we call him Uncle Freddy), was later den me!
*breathes*
had a long briefing (or rather, lots of sidetracking bout e purposes of doing wateva we're doing now. like "y do we study" etc. not forgetting e frequent flirting with e 3 young poly girls who equally taunted him [ok mayb only 1 of them did])
n we ended our talk at 1040pm.
hung ard abit more to check up on Mario and his sleekness
(yes serene, stop swooning over it, wipe ur drool)
b4 saying my goodbyes n making my way back home to prepare for tml's conference and IPPT.
n kitty has a new nick from my frens: FatalisCat
he scratches, he bites, he doesnt tailswipe but he's deadly. and FAST!
better treasure my sleep while i can.
no more tweaking of windows 7 tonight!
might want to do a fresh install if possible
but tat might mean i'll hav to backup EVERYTHING!
now, where can i find space to do tat?
hmmmm.
oh well, ship reach bridge head, naturally straight.
shall let e things of the morrow worry for itself.
'Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. -Matt 6:34'
(n yes! my torrent is picking up speed aft being stagnant at 0 - 0.2kb/s for weeks!)
hip hip hooray!
(hip's better this week too ^^)
Tuesday, 28 July 2009
e refreshing drops of rain quicken me to pick up my pace, yet urging me to stay in this race.
e park route ard zhenghua is finally open!
aft 2 mths of construction n rebuilding.
it's e usual place where i can get my imagination running wild.
shadows all ard me,
e faint glimmer of e lamp rays,
coupled with e fallen huge leaves on e pathway lead me to interpret those shapes on the floor.
could it be a rat? a kitten? junk? litter? or jus another fallen leaf?
all ard the estates n past e 7-11s and Macs which led me craving for savoury foodstuf.
as my legs kept moving, my stomach was craving.
MUSHROOM SWISS DOUBLE!
n later a 2nd crave:
CARL'S JR.!
if i had all e money in e world, i'd eat Carl's til i'd b sick of it!
had a Vitasoy aft my run. I finally carried some cash with me for runs!
only a dollar for a drink.
but i was greedy.
i wanted a tube of popsicle too!
but too bad Vitasoy was worth exactly a dollar.
zzz.
but i was nvr in time for e local neighbourhood mamashop to b open during my previous runs.
this time i started out earlier at ard 10+ n ended run at 12am.
phew phew.
n e loooong workouts tat came aft left me begging for more Vitasoy.
i scrimped each n every drop of juice in my mouth.
taking sips n not gulping it down.
n i realized tat as i did my situps or any other workout,
i'd b under this tree with a huge wide canopy tat extended to e far ends of e exercise corner.
remem e talks about trees and nitefall n 'dun look up'?
haha, i think i did 100 situps in total.
bleah.
ahhh well, i did most of my exercises facing e tree trunk.
BAH.
n now tat im home,
i'll have to plan out tml's activities.
wake up, hopefully get a Big Mac Meal in sch b4 collecting e keys to e dance studio while returning e seminar room 1 key and book more slots for friday practices.
(hmmmm, shdnt fridays be held at Hall 13 when sch starts instead?)
n book e studio/sem room specially for ex-pres CY on thurs night.
den go for a swim!
or gym 1st?
ok mayb gym 1st, den i relak in e pool while swimming n tanning. =]
all e way til dinnertime.
i bet im gonna eat alone this time.
everyone seems to be away again.
but oh wells, who cares?
i can eat at my own pace.
a VERY VERY slow pace.
hhahaa.
k, it's 310 now. i better b off to bed.
kitty's been transferred to sis room.
FINALLY.
gotta let her noe how hard it is to stay asleep in e mid of e night while he runs n jumps n whines with every big movement tat u make.
seems like she hasnt stepped out of her room since she stayed inside.
usually she would go to e loo every half to 1 hr.
but i guess not this nite!
n yes, i still crave mushroom swiss.
CHEEEEEEEEEEESSEEE...
Monday, 27 July 2009

i wonder how long more i can keep him from it.
necessary punishments hav alr been meted out.

oh well, wat to do.
it's this time of e yr again.
i believe i whined alot last yr too!
sry tie.
but oh wells,
it's worth saving up all those time lost thru travelling to n fro.
n yep, i managed to wakeup in time thanks to qy. =]
got my keys, booked rooms, n rushed down to bukit batok VICOM for a quick inspection.
im amazed i passed without 1st 'consulting' e bike shop jus opp to rectify any non-passable conditions, esp Carbon monoxide issues if any.
phew phew.
thank God i went to service my bike n mSia few nights ago!
biked down later to alexandra area to fork out tat $500 to e bike shop.
n back to sch for me.
all in time to open up at 630pm with nary a soul in sight.
stoned for ard half hour while listening to e charismatics nxt door n their speaking in tongues.
boring friday it is without everyone else.
could hav jus sat there all night long.
sitting around, all night long.
thankfully Mr Ivan popped by!
if not perhaps i'd jus have slept in e room.
n argh, im supposed to sleep like 3hrs ago!

gosh.
poor me, kitty pushed me away when i tried to kiss him. bleah.
Friday, 24 July 2009
phew, i haven sleep a wink yet.
fingers havng slight burns from soldering plastic on my bike.
or rather, 'stitching' up my bike with a bottle of 100 plus.
am currently feeling very very very faint from inhaling all e toxic fumes 1 would get from burning plastic and lack of sleep at this hr. but still, a sense of achievement is achieved. although some stitches kinda cracked abit but overall it looks nicey!
time to find tat unique blue spray paint colour!
i doubt it can even b found since it's custom-made.
either way, im supposed to send it for inspection and to e bike shop a alexandra but i doubt i can even wakeup to get e key from e seminar room later in the aftnoon.
if anyone sees this plea for a wakeup call, pls make sure im up n vrooming by ard 3pm will ya?
if no one sees this den i guess i'll b uber late n e office will close.

no wait,
bathe n coax kitty to sleep.

(whirly-eyed; too much fumes)

Earth Trek
hahaha
trekking today was great!
got to take lotsa pics n had lotsa new experiences.
talked to a fam of tourists from Australia too!
Tom n Taryan and their daughter Franchester (Frankie for short).
literally got in touch with Nature too!
n i was silently humming 'This is my Father's world' as i hiked up.
not as much mozzies as i expected,
but ALOT more squirrels!
i was at a point where there were ard 4 to 5 squirrels jus surrounding me!
i was sore afraid of being swarmed by them.
n when i finally reached e summit, e view wasnt as perfect as expected.
surrounded by trees all over.
zzz.
but it was there tat i met e frenly tourists n recommended places to travel to!
aft a long chat with them, we parted ways n i found my way towards e quarry.
for 1 thing,
it was ultra breezy on a sunny aftnoon!
hav a vid of how e trees rattled.
i was again afraid of bugs or ants falling towards my face.
but i enjoyed it for at least 5mins b4 e wind died down.
den i decided to venture thru e fauna green path which took me away from e main paths but into e jungle with yet more steep steps akin to those when i took e harsh yellow path.
for a lil moment i was pondering wat will happen if i allowed ShoeBox to roam free in there.
will he even survive?
will he turn vegetarian?
anw, i pressed on thru more dangerous looking steps n came to many quirly sights!
did i mention i stole a chateh looking seed from e reserve?
hahaha, it twirls in e air gracefully as it falls with a loud thud.
perhaps tats e inspiration from which chatehs came about.
aft snooping ard Bukit Timah Nature Reserve,
i headed to e adjacent park of Hindhede n towards e Singapore quarry.
e view was FASCINATING!!!!
lovely!
i was in awe,
speechless awe.
u shd see it 1st hand!
n there was this swirling pattern on e surface of e pond, littered by leaves n petals.
it looked as if e Milky Way had invaded it.
specks of green n yellow on 1 side of e lake only.
interesting.
n e playground there looks like one from a deserted town.
a town tat one one has visited for yrs.
no one to groom it or even sweep up dead leaves.
felt as if i was transported to another dimension suddenly.
think red skies and black clouds with ashes flying in e wind.
sounds so post-apocalyptic.
in fact, it seems so vivid tat i can visualize it in full HD.
ah well,
this is wat u get when u combine a bored to death indoor male seeking some form of outdoor thrill n excitement.
anw, it's off to bed for me,
gotta wakeup early to go partial solar eclipse viewing!
=]
pics coming up soon on FB!
Monday, 20 July 2009
sometimes even concussing away as if ive been bludgeoned.
kitty's been giving everyone a hard time by biting everyone n oso helping me to keep my mum at bay. ^^
(anw blogger is abit wrecked out now so i cant post pics atm.)
time to buy a battery for my watch or get a new one!
anw, e feeling of the aftermath hasnt set in yet. so i guess im still doing fine if u're asking.
n i jus realized, kitty IS afraid of heights.
well, i nvr really knew til i dangled him out of my 19th storey window.
he gave me shrieks like those in e bathroom.
played with him with ice cubes n made his hair stand on end! haha, e natural way of spiking up without using wax or gel.
now he looks a lil like Sora in lion form.
i still love to molest his paws.
SO SOFT & SQUISHY!
<3
yep, now he's finally piped down n taking an evening nap aft being so hyper in e aftnoon. (or freaked out by me throwin him ard in e air n trying to make him yodel; which I did! YAY)
Thursday, 16 July 2009
jus came back from jogging n kitty bit my toe aft i took out my socks. (err... such a unique delicacy it must hav been)
n he jus sniffed me all over jus b4 i got to e bathe.
countdown of 13hrs left.
hope it's e final one.
it's abit too draggy, both physically n mentally.
anw, im gonna treat myself to a hearty Ice milo float n maggi mee!
yum yum!
while i mix some songs n write short essay.
=]
Wednesday, 15 July 2009
all typical signs of wat a typical parent would hav.
for once in my life, this would b e rare few chances where i would partake in a growing organism's nurture and psychological n emotional n physical growth.
all for tat fleeting moment of adoration that one might foster in its early yrs.
oh well, sacrifices r definitely inevitable. yeah, i ever did consider this when i picked him up.
optimism jus ruins everything u noe?
expecting every bad little thing to miraculously turn out well.
another dangerous thought to hav.
but den again, as i scratch its back, it gently purrs n rumbles as it licks my palm thinking its a nipple as it keeps his eyes closed.
it makes me feel so honoured to see him through this stage!
now i now how mothers feel when their babies enter weaning periods.
lovely.
ok, im gonna go give these twin big round eyes more tolerance n love.
time for sleep.

opting oso for fish burgers aft gobbling them down.
n when i woke up, i was welcomed to Sweet n Sour Pork and Choc Fondue...
all on this cooking programme on TV.

and a SWAT team show involving a team VS 1 single enemy sniper.
woah, tat sniper's GOOD!
...hmmm...

Ripples
i feel like many horses are pulling me apart slowly...
discouragement reigns within.
im jus disgusted at my inability at many things.
i jus cant get things right sometimes.
when things dun go according to my plan or expectations,
some queasy feeling erupts inside me.
irritating too.
irks me...
if only i had e ability to tear it away from me n rip it into pieces.
den again im unable to.
i irritate myself.
how ironic.
urgh
toenails hurt like hell.
hungry but no appetite.
Sunday, 28 June 2009
hopefully it's within my grasp.

its gonna b more hectic.
early morns, late nights,
labs and assignments.
im gonna need to squeeze out every ounce of time i hav.
not forgetting my other commitments.
im gonna need motivation n encouragement.
but 1st,
pls grant me my right to an asylum back at home.
Thursday, 25 June 2009
yeah, somehow it always falls on a Sunday.
how weird.
went for Sunset as usual b4 receiving a call frm sis in e midst of service.
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.

=]

need a Jive routine!!!!
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!
Thursday, 11 June 2009
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.
Tuesday, 9 June 2009

Sunday, 31 May 2009
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...

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.
