i'm disappointed.. we got silver...

after training for countless weeks
after practicing 6 days per week
we the nyjc guitar club got SILVER
i mean come on lar,
we also didnt actually put in alot of effort right?
so why am i feeling so disappointed and sad?
yes i cried after we heard the results
i expected silver given our performance
but i still cant fight the sourness i feel


u know ppl used to say u reap what u sow
now then did i truly understand what this means
although it isnt 100% that
u'll succeed if u put in ur best,
but u'll never know if u dont try it.
the regret i felt when i realise it's over


thoughts like
"if only i had spent more effort to practice"
"we were almost there, but we still cant make it"
"why arent we able to do as well as the others?"
"we are a disappointment to tomas..."
"we could have done it if only we could..."


tomas our instructor cum conductor
was taking 3 schools under him
TJ got GOLD HONOUR
MJ got GOLD
NY got? god damn SILVER
i mean come on lar...
we all know tomas is reknown in this field lor
so if we failed, it aint his fault
its just us and our laziness


i just hate this feeling of losing
especially to RJ and TJ
RJ because they look damn arrogant la
TJ cause' someone i dont like is in the sch


i totally swear to myself
that i wont feel how i feel now
when i get back my A'level results nxt yr.
this i promise myself...
from today onwards its mug MUG MUG
i dont want this feeling!!!
it sucks!!!


"TOMAS I'M REALLY REALLY SORRY"

i dont know what to feel...

why does it appears to me that many things just wont be right anymore again?
why do i feel as if no matter how hard i work towards my goals, i still wont be able to achieve them?
why is it that so many unfavourable (aka awfully bad) things are happening to the people around me?
why does the world seem all upside down and topsy turvy to me?
why? why? why?


health is gaining its level of importance in many people's lives today. with the ever increasing cases of cancers (of all sorts including breast, lung and brain), it seemed in fact that health is the most important component of life itself. without a fit and healthy body, u will find difficulty even to get up from bed.
so many people around me recently have been detected with cancer. it makes me scared and question life even more. are we born to live a life constantly conscious of what we put into our mouths or how much we exercise every week or how much body mass is to fats ratio we have?
you see, i had so much contacts with cancer patients, it almost seem to me that everyone and anyone else can get cancer, especially the old people. why the elderly? because the handful of people i happen to know that are detected with cancer are aged at least 50 years and above.
has this trend got something to do with the lifestyles people have nowadays, that's why we're all more prone to illness and diseases? are we living a less healthy life as compared to the past despite of the advanced technology we have, and a more educated population? or has it got something to do with the degradation of our environment? the hole in the ozone layer, forest fires, etc. can someone explain to me why so many people are starting to fall so ill? i dont want to lose the people close to me one by one...


the 5.. i have this queasy feeling everytime we're together somewhere. i just dont feel as at ease when all of us are gathered as i used to feel. instead, a the feeling of being left out filled the space that used to be a sense of belonging. the lost i feel.. it just never fail to get to me everytime. yes, that's the reason why sometimes i'm suddenly so quiet. sometimes basically i just dont know what to say anymore. i'm starting to enjoy the companion of my guitar friends more. although they may just turn out to be some fair-weather friends, but at least i feel more comfortable hanging out with them.
am i being overly sensitive and un-apathetic? am i just acting like a selfish moronic pig? why must things turn out to be like that?


i'm hoping for so much, working as hard as i can, but it seems to me that nothing is working out. the efforts i've been pumping in doesnt seem to be paying off. did i turn over a new leaf too late? basically i think of myself as a brainless git now, someone who knows so little yet talks so much. after all those GP lessons recently, i'm starting to realise how insignificant i am as compared to things occurring somewhere else.
while i'm determining how fat i am, the government decided to open a casino right at our very doorstep. while i'm turmoiling over how to do better in the various aspects in life, the previous pope John Paul II died.
you see what i mean when the things that trouble me seem so puny when put next to these "big" events that took place? no matter what, i hope to improve on my general knowledge and slowly learn to get a better control over my own life. i'm still growing up, i believe with time, i'll be able to achieve greater things.

on a more cheerful note

everyday is a day worth of celebrating
so i shouldnt brood over everything too much
as much as i can think
i shouldnt let the thoughts run too wild
i shouldnt make any assumptions and scare myself


HaPpIe BuRfdAe

HAIKAL


in exactly 6 more days
i'll be freed from guitar and syf
how long i've pined for that day to come
1-2-3-4-5-6 days will pass quickly

someone who resembled him

went for dinner that day
then happened to see someone
who looked so much like him
that i cant help staring at that guy


the guy i saw though
was a slightly meatier version of him
yeaps, and he had his gf with him


at first glance i thought it was him
then when i saw the girl beside
i simply sat there and stoned
i really dont know why..



past few days,
have been hearing from him
and he wanted to meet up
what should i do?
i really dont think i should do so
because i just wont know
how exactly to react
i definitely cant react how i want to
because i have to be 理智
i just dont know
so i never promised anything
i just said see first


oh man
i know i shouldn't
be thinking too much on this
since my mid-yr is
only like days away
but i cant help but...
nvm

良一 dying in the show [活下去]

does all good guys come to an end?
no matter how good a character..
bad things will still befall them?
is that what this world is about?
he only wanted to save his buddy,
and he had to pay with his life..
isn't it too abrupt and sudden?
isn't it too unexpected?


unpredicatable
that's what life's all about

nkf donation drives

just recently, there was this donation drive, raising money for the many patients suffering from kidney failure in singapore by the NKF. in this event, many local and foreign artistes are invited to perform in the mediacorp studio. many did stunts that make u stand on tether for them, and others purely did what they do for a living: sing and dance. while some singers are really damn good, like Jenny, but there are also those that happen to be in the field thanks to their looks. u should know who i'm referring to here huh.


well, as meaningful as it is for us to help these less fortunate, singaporeans are donating for the wrong reasons. hotlines were set up for public's convenience to make a donation. however, i believe that the majority of those who picked up their phones and dialled the number throughout this period werent actually calling because they really want to help. in fact, i can almost vouch that most of them were attracted by the ludicrous rewards: luxurious car, condominium units, diamond credit cards, and cash. why am i so certain? its of course thanks to my father and sister. here's 2 scenarios of what happened.



  1. Father : 现在快点打(the hotline)
    Me : Wah, Daddy 她(白冰冰)是你的偶像啊?
    Father : 你的头啦。它现在送 credit card


  2. Mummy: Eh, 看他们这样辛苦,快点打一通啦
    Sister: 不要!等他们有送东西才打

basically that's what happened that triggered my thoughts. if those people really called because they cared, then why must the host and artistes continually emphasise on the prizes to be won and repeatedly lead the audiences to call the hotlines? also, why is it that when people won the prizes, none of them donated their monetary gains back to the organisation, (maybe except on 1 occasion last year or so)?


singaporeans today are just so pragmatic and materialistic. they do things only if the things they do might be to their benefits. where have all the virtues like empathy, apathy and sympathy gone? or should we say locals do have these qualities, but media have exploited them along with the enticing accolade of the lucky winners?

super sian

thanks to ivan ho
i was reading this
when i came online
to
relax
presenting : NMR


and while i was blogsurfing
i came across this web
[some interesting articles]



"sooper sian"

a whole new world

what disappointed me is over
but i simply refused to make up first
anyway blame it on my
obstinancy


saw bloggers on the news again
can really see what they mean
when they say bloggers are gaining
power in giving and gaining news
talking about politics,
gossiping on artistes,
pressing environmental issues,
and anything anyone can talk about.



it's like an online paparazzi column
where some choose to "papariz" themselves
while others talk about more impt topics
you never know what
you're gonna come across
when u go blog surfing
sometimes u get to read
what others are going through
and u feel so much more fortunate



one day i hope to achieve sth
and make life a better day

my tears no longer flow..

something's letting me down, down
but i dont want to write about it
if not it's gonna leave a scar forever
hopefully tml's gonna be a better day


it's a wonder how sometimes when some things go bad, subsequently, many other things go bad too. yepp, including waiting super long for a bus (and when it finally came, it came in pair), getting stuck by the bus' doors. haha.. yar that's what happened to me.



well i choose to believe that things will be okay soon.
there's always the rainbow after a downpour.


on another note:
was so surprise to see mel wrote testimonial for him. sounds like she's still in contact with him.. dont know why i suddenly feel so insecure again. but i'm not gonna let it get to me. it's been a period of time already. looking back, time really flies. it's been more than 3 months already. wonder what i've been up to all these days, since i last met him.



switching topic before i get too emotional, there's going to be quite a few things for me to be more concerned about, rather than a few more rounds of emotional traumatisation. yeah. ocip presentation has got to be done up, mid-years round the corner, guitar syf just 14 days away, etc. i'm reduced to little free time to
胡思乱想 too much.

roller-blading? life?

went ecp wif xue and choo
met up wif xue's friend
and we went blading..!
5 rookies led by 1 pro
the scene was comical
rookies were shrieking away
trying to learn how to blade
in a place full of pros
luckily i learnt blading b4
as in last time along corridor
so i wasnt in tt bad a shape



i dont know what i am doing
i seem to purposely want to quarrel
with him, yes tt him.
but yet i want him to reply me
i dont know what i'm expecting
better dont dwindle too much on it
if not
后果不堪设想



i've cheered up for the past week
at least i'm better than last week
when i'm basically a

  • walking corpse
  • walking zombie
  • 活死人

opefully i'm able to pull it through
i mean there's no pt in me
pulling a long face through life
when i can smile and live it
even though it seems tougher
it's also easier to past the time



"tired" is just an excuse
ppl give themselves to be lazy,
have a easier time living,
and make themselves seem pitiful
i shallnt be lazy or seem pitiful
not anymore
i'mma gonna work so damn hard
for myself and for those who cares

growing up


i've just promised myself
i wanna be an ATTITUDE gurl
as from today onwards


i dont want to be too affected
by all the stuffs around me
like it or not i think its cool
dont blame me for my aloofness
treat it as me protecting myself


did smth so crude today
flung momma's hand away
when she wanted to pull me
in under the umbrella
somewhr sheltered fr the sun
some way to repay her huh.


i'm sorry momma'
i nv meant to hurt u
i nv meant to make u cry
(not today, but THAT day)
but tonight,
i'm learning how to grow up



anw felt kinda bad after it
cuz' i realli didnt mean it
i had thought it was my sis's hand
can still rem how proud i am
when momma used to hold my arm
when we cross the road together


i had this swelling ego
cos she never do that to jie and di
after the 3 of us grew up
but she still does that to me


maybe from another perspective,
it may seem that
i'm still a child in her eyes
meaning i'm still behaving
like an immature kid


so maybe i should

let me be childish, for awhile

i'm


tired
tired
tired
tired
tired



i'm just so sick and tired of everything,
i just hope things pass quickly,
and let everything be over soon.


i hate having spending everyday like i am now.
grumbling over the smallest thing,
just because i'm suffering from insomnia.


i'm doing so terribly in my studies,
i just dont want to talk about it.
and i'm supposedly the "cream of the crop"
according to the O'lvl score.


i mean WHAT CRAP
no point thinking about the past
just gotta make full use of the present


I SWEAR I'M GOING TO WORK EVEN HARDER
