Some people

Some people I know are older then they should be
Some people I know are younger then they behave
Some people I know are sadder then they ought to
Some people I know are happier then they deserve to
Some people I know are wiser then they look
Some people I know are sillier then they are appear
Some people I know I dont know at all.

Beyond

Green Day - Good Riddance (Time of Your life)

Another turning point a fork stuck in the road...
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go..
So make the best of this test and don't ask why.
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.
It's something unpredictable but in the end its right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs and still-frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time.
Tatooes of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
It's something unpredictable but in the end its right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable but in the end its right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

There's supposed to be a bunch of semi-funny/serious quizzes here but quizgalaxy really doesn't like me. Ah well.

Its going to be a boring mundane post about school and trash again, with bits of things no one but me understands so if you dont mind. Gloss it over or ignore it entirely.

Common tests, right. Pain the the prosterior. In fact I have GP in about 10 houts time so what am I doing here? Getting in the mood of course! Now then, if it were Hsitory or something more major Id be DYING to remember all those dates and crap. This is relaxing, therupatic even- bottoms up!

I have decided.

To go Beyond.

Prisoner of War

[[All of my days]]

Proclaim Your awesome power
Tell of mighty deeds
Declare Your future Kingdom
Of everlasting peace

And my eyes they look unto You always
And I am captured by Your Majesty

All of my days
I will sing of Your greatness
All of my days
I will speak of Your grace
All of my days
I will tell of Your wondrous love
Your love in my life
Your love

All Your works will praise You
Your children bless Your name
We speak of all Your goodness
We walk in fields of grace
----------------------------------

Suddenly reminded of this song. Was reading someone else's blog and I thought back over vision friday. Going BEYOND, all that shizzle. Yes, its insane, this year and these people. We all fight an invisible war, one where only the combatants fight while the unknowning casualties pile up. And once in a while, the soldiers just feel down, the odds are insane and the incentives aren't obvious. Being a POW suddenly does not look so bad and the only thing keeping them from turning tail is the fear of being shot in the back. Im losing sight of my objective and the rifle gets heavier each day. The welcoming arms of defeat entice me everytime and all too often I jump in gladly. Its stupid, its wrong, but when you have lost that communication link with Headquarters the wa just gets into you. You're desensitized. Being shot does not hurt so much anymore and all of a sudden its alright to negotiate a little give and take.

I require a few things
1) restablish communications - harder done then said. Esp when that antenna is totally out of whack and you cant feel nuts no more.
2) redefine the frontline - can't fight a war is there's no division
3) suit up - be re-equipped to take up the battle again, toughen up and get steely

Thing is, I dont know how. If I got a pebble for each time I make the trip between the border of peseverance and defeat Id have built the great wall of China by now. Got to close the door, I just need to know one thing. HOW

Someday We'll know

Someday We'll Know - New Radicals

Ninety miles outside Chicago
Can't stop driving I don't know why
So many questions I need an answer
Two years later you're still on my mind

Whatever happened to Emilia Airheart?
Who holds stars up in the sky?
Is true love just once in a lifetime?
Did the captain of the Titanic cry?

Someday we'll know if love could move a mountain
Someday we'll know why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you

Does anybody know the way to Altantis
Or what the wind says when she cries
I'm speeding by the place that I met you
For the ninety-seventh time ... tonight

Someday we'll know if love could move a mountain
Someday we'll know why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you

Yea yea yeah yeah

Someday we'll know why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know that I was the one for you

I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watch the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask God just one question
Why aren't you here with me?

Someday we'll know if love could move a mountain
Someday we'll know why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you

Yea yea yeah yeah

Someday we'll know why Samson loved Dilaila
One day I'll go dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know that I was the one for you
-----------------------------------------

And old song that I just found. So many of these kind of songs recently, and oh, here's another!

Dreams - The Cranberries

Oh my life is changing everyday
In every possible way
And oh my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems

I know i felt like this before
But now i'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then i open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be

I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
And they'll come true

Impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

And now i tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
You're what i couldn't find
A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me

Oh my life is changing everyday
In every possible way
And oh my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
'cause you're a dream to me
Dream to me
-----------------------------------

Been looking for this song for so long ever since I discovered the original was an english song. (First heard this tune on a chinese pop songI think) Just happened to chance apon it on radio the other day and noted down an excerpt of the lyrics. yup.

Sch reopen, orientation. I haven't felt this kind of atmosphere since I was undergoing orientation myself. And I miss it. As I put the new freshies in my frames, behind the lens I miss every moment one year ago. Being worried and lonely. Meeting Thebes Gamma. Knowing our wonderful OGLs more. Soaking up the excitement, the build up. Becoming the Winning family seemed like a given- if we didnt win id be super disappointed. We played, shouted, sang and cheered our souls out. True effort and emotion yields results :)

Second Orientation could never touch the level the first set. Simply because first is mostly by people who want to be there. And second was made up of mostly people who wanted to get a transfer out asap. The commitment level is totally different. OGLs too, having older OGLs just gives you more respect for them.

One major greviance. WHY NO MASS DANCE THIS YEAR? Mass dances are a tradition at all Jc orientations arent they? Is this the standard for orientation set by the 19th Council? Will this mean the new student councils will pick up and SR will no longer have mass dances at orientation?! I wont take this lie down and see this happen- college dance is fun yes, but mass dances are the fastest, most exciting, nerve wrecking to learn and dance kinds :)

Didn't take alot of pictures of Orientation. I hope 2nd Orientation would be better (since they are the ones becoming our real juniors and taking over everything) Im looking forward to the 20th Student Council and all that jazz. Its these kind of super fun things that makes your short 2 years in Jc super memorable isnt it? And also to counteract the wholly stressful setup of year 2. Yes Jean, you will have someone to fret with you this year haha.

Im making a new skin soon. It'll probably stay throughout 2007 cos It'll be a busy year and I wont have much time to be online to fiddle with my blog. Who am I fighting with this year? All the nice prodigious people who handle exams with a flick of their hair and a sparkle in their eyes. Tough battle ahead it will be.

Faithfully

HAPPY 2007!! Its Jan FIRST 2007!!

Faithfully
(verse 1)
tonight i saw a shooting star
made me wonder where you are
for years I have been dreaming of you
i wonder if you're thinking of me too
in this world of cheap romance
and love that only fades after the dance
they say that I'm a fool
to wait for something more
how can I really love someone
I've never seen before
i have longed for true love
every day that I have lived
and I know real love is all about
learning how to give
i pray that God will bring you to me
i pray you'll fnd me waiting faithfully

(chorus)
faithfully, I am yours
from now until forever
faithfully I will write
write you a love song with my life
'cause this kind of love's worth waiting for
no matter how long it takes I am yours
faithfully, faithfully

(verse 2)
tonight I saw two lovers kiss
reminded me of my
own loneliness
they say that i'm a fool
to keep on praying for you
how can i give up pleasure for
a dream that won't come true
but i will keep believing
that God still has a plan
and though i cannot see you now
i know that He can
and someday i will
give you all of me
until i find you
i'll be waiting faithfully
------------------------------------------

This wonderful song sums up exactly how the situation is. Remember Acz, only one shot. So we make it count all the way. You ask me, exactly in the song, how do I love someone, I may have never seen before? Well, because I believe God has a plan, and thats how it works.

Came back from watchnight not long ago, somehow im so high im not tired haha, so much so this post is like at 4:30am on the 1st Jan. School's reopening! And I havn't done my homework! Oh my- how now? I think I'll start like tomorrow, intensive homework spamming haha. I have 2 days if that is the case. heehee.

Been spending alot of monet lately. First Christmas, then watching movies, first Eragon with the PCSS people and then Night at the Museum with my cell (part of them at least haha). Oh this is a MIRACLE. When we were buying tickets for Night at the Museum today, we had to find 4 joint seats, but the only seats were in the front row. Somwhow the goblock system at the automated tickiting machine went nuts and we lost our four seats! Now reduced to sitting in pairs we were on 2 seperate machines waiting for one nets card when suddenly the second machine cancelled the transaction! Hurriedly punching in a new order for 2 seats guess what? We got 2 seats just next to the other two haha. This indeed is a divine intervention on God's part and I give praise to Him for that. A01 + A02 and A04 + A05 but the person who was supposed to be in A03 never turned up haha.

Hurrah, A level year. Wish me luck, wish me health, wish me peace and wish me God's blessings. Now I await the coming CAs and the return of our MT results =x I pray I pass so that I wont have to retake MT this year haha.

Tired, must sleep zzz or father will murderize hehe. nites
