Ask and I'll Give....

Absolutely merserised with the song "You Said"... Just picked it up on Sunday... Oh my, the words "You Said" are so powerful like as if it is posing a challenge "I said it, are you willing to believe it?" And I dare say I do, the nations eh? Sounds like fun, I'll take it!

School is lightening up alot now that the D&T crisis is HALF over and I have an idea how to do my chosen project. But then again, the scales have to balance up.. sigh... I am in Christian Character for CET Again!! This is like the 3rd of 4th time round! Ps Rachel said I failed e last time.. but Im sure I didnt T_T I dont want to be in a class with no one for company but kids and adults with faces that look as if they were cut from coarse granite. I want to go where everyone else is... the herd mentality? Nah, I just need company... everyone needs friends, no matter how much of a loner he/she is.

There was supposed to be this really cool offer that would let me make a quick buck but it fell through and was postponed till later notice. (Argh, there goes my Valentine's Day budget.. oops.. did i say something? O.o) About 80% of the best things in my life (things that are too good to be true) either fail (a small minority Thank God) or have to be waited for (God's favourite way of doing things ^_^) and only 20% actually goes as planned perfectly. Not complaining but just wondering why. Well He has His plans and His thoughts and ways are higher than our thoughts and ways, so no complaints here ^_^

Miss Shim didnt come today, and neither was Miss Kodi free to take the class... so we didnt get out handbook, nor did we get to hand in our article =_= aiya, quite a uneventful day aside from the Council Investiture (wronf spelling) and a ton of the old people came back from Mashrufah to Edwin Neo (Who took our class for Relief during Eng when Miss Kodi was not around FYI) Hmm and our Geog test got postponed (not that im not ready hahaz ok cannot be proud...)

Sometimes, I just stand there and look up at the sky and wonder. Here I am, doing the best I can but one way or another I begin to become the me in school and the me outside again, I dont want that to happen. I want to reach out and save my school, I really do but I have no idea what to do, so I seek... and I'll keep seeking till I find what I want.

Today, I was super bored during my "free" period so I began to compare... it was close, REAL close but I judged based on all different aspects and all and it came out a stalemate.. almost equal.. Argh.. aint solving anyhing X_X Ive been thinking, 4 years, so much has happened, so much can happen, will things still be the same then? How will we change? How will this play out? Such a cruel joke life has played... and then there is always the wild card, making things worse then ever... the ever-present wild card...

Still listening to "You Said" I am absolutely captured by that song.. im gonna post e lyrics here!
You Said - Hillsongs

You said,
Ask and you will recieve
What ever you need.
You said,
Pray and I'll hear from Heaven
And I'll heal your Land.

You Said ,
Your Glory will fill the Earth
Like Water the Seas.
You Said,
Lift up Your Eyes
The Harvest is Here The Kingdom is Near.

- Chorus -
You Said
Ask and I'll give the Nations to You
O' Lord, That's the Cry of my Heart
Distant Shores and the Islands
Will See Your Light
As it Rises on Us
You Said

O' Lord I ask for the nations
--------------------------------------
Awesome ain't it? If you want e mp3, just chat me up on MSN and I'll send it to you without delay! Listening to another song... An Jing.. hahaz, I know i know, I VERY RARELY listen to Chinese songs... but it got me thinking about the events since the 23rd of Dec up till now. Should I? I really don't want to... then there's the wild card, along with other up and rising candidates... I just dont want to think about it, at least not for now.

An item that represents you eh? That is the thing we were asked to bring tommrrow for CME. An object or item that represents ourself with exception of banned items in the school (obviously the teachers knew that some pupils would take advantage of this chance) What to bring? I really don't know, at first I thought about bringing a bottle of water or something similar. I just found a really cool meaning for that... but it was deemed too simple.. so now Im thinking again... think think think Tuesday has always been a cool day cos of CME ^_^ the only 100% non stressful lesson in the ENTIRE week

Well it's kinda late.. ive been writing this for like HOURS hahaz, loggin off! Cya round!
PS. sorry if bulk of this is irrelevant to you people from school and all...

Im Free!!! (New fav song... Free by Hillsongs too haha)

Dreaming is Meaningless

It's been like 3 days ouch and SO much has happened... Lest go in choronological order shall we?

Lets start from the 27th! Thursday! D&T day X_X Yea.. It got rejected AGAIN! But Im getting close now ^_^ Soon .. more editing and he HAS To accept it~! I'll be doing that yes. And then the highlight of the day... Finally! After 2 LONG MONTHS! The 2004 Church Camp Commitee finalyl met up for their little meetign / dinner hahaz. But Alvin-kun was not there and neither was Xin Yi-Sama who was sick that day .. oh well, some other time perhaps? Ps Rachel ordered like SO MANY dishes! There was Sweet Sour Chicken, KangKong, Butter Prawns, Scallop and Veg, Hotplate Tofu and Some nice fried appetizer thing that is heavenly with Mayo.. Wait.. ALL Deepfried things are awesome with Mayo XD Anna-sama was like super hyper all the way while Aaron-kun was still up to his usual semi-serious semi-joking style.. Paster Rachel? She was just... happy like, craking jokes here and there talking alot ^_^ Wahaz... first time I knew about Cedar uniform, it does not look flattering.. really, not until I saw the Uniform actually worn by someone, Whowz... it really makes a difference you know? Anyhow, sidetracking... After that we went for Prayer Meeting, the second time recently last tiem was when Ps Rachel was leading and called us to go support her... hahaz... sidetrack again... ok lar so it was quite cool... before the meeting chatted abut with Anna-sama, learnt tons of cool things about Cedar, I envy them ALOT, compared to my school.. everytime I think about my school I want to cry...

WHY ARE WE SO PATHETIC?? There is no unity, spirit or anything of that sort! It is all a matter of choice, how you want to live your life. You want to be pathatic and part of the majority of losers and save your face, go ahead, but if you want things to change - Action ahs to be taken. Im going to be a trendsetter, a history maker, why dont you?

Dont know why, I just got this phrase stuck in my head -> "What Goes Around Comes Around, What Goes Up Must Come Down" from dunno wat song ive been hearing an awful lot on radio recently. But I like it alot, dont know why... guess it makes sence bah?

Now on to Friday! ^_^ Oh my Friday was such a cool day! School was like SO SMOOTH! Nothing cropped up and everything was just... perfect! After school met up with Shan An, Kim Tian, Jin Rong and Andy. Woah! When I heard that Andy and Shan An dyed their hair I didnt think too much of it UNTIL I saw Shan An's Hair... OMG it was ALL BRIGHT ORANGE! Kurosaki Ichigo would have been proud XD (If you want to know, just search for Bleach! the anime or manga OR kurosaki Ichigo.. and tyou'll see what i mean XD) Went to AMK to eat lunch.. mm... Seoul Garden HAhaz... Just ate and talked, there was this bunch of really silly boys on the table next to ours, they were upper sec somemore lor from Presbyterian High (did I get that school right O.O), compaing that "Oh look! My fire is bigger then yours!" or "The food i cooked is better then yours!" Silly stuff X_X so noisy... And we were like talking how idiotic they were behaving (like some suger-high hyperactive rodents) and I think they heard but aiya, they also wont dare to do anything... Cos we outnumber them (Although I dont think Jin Rong looks like she will try to fight... Neither will I) because Shan An and Andy look really fierce with ther new hairdo and cos they are all skinny and kind of short XD at the end of the meal, we like took sauce and all sorts of things and put it in the soup to play Zhong Ji Mi Ma.. wahaz... being a good analyst saved me tons of times, making the next person take my rap (Poor Jin Rong.. that stuff was VILE! Think soup, Chili Sauce, Ketchup, Preserved Veg, Lemonade and some other stuff mixed into a gooey reddish bowl XD)

Then we went to check out this new place where they sold like anime and manga stuff and also games and such (All Legit though)... they had a 10% discount until the end of this week.. but I no cash sia... Went back to Shan An's house and slacked abit until about 6:40 rushed off to take bus to GEC and help out set up things for e RR Enrolment Service the next day.. It was like so fun cos we had to build a mountain ^_^ Scaffolding and Cardboard, brown paper (with spray paint! Woot!), tons of crushed newspaper (More fun!) and Tape, scotch tape, masking tape, stapler gun,... the works Whahas, had lots of fun and went back only at like 12.. Rong Sheng drove us (Me, Dilys and Jonathan) home in Derrick's Car (Derrick is like Sandra;'s BF! How cool ^_^) he was a great driver, no stress or worries, but he's just a little slow sia hahaz, went home and SLEPT!! zZzZzZ

Saturday!! Woke up nice and early to fix up my unifrom for Enrolment Service, then did homework... Chem is fun :D Then went to GEC to do the rest of the things we didnt manage to do the previous night, fix a few flaws here and there and practised for the Opening Skit... it was so fun! We would like walk in from the two front doors and walk to our spots and begin dancing like the Axe Gang dance (From Kung fu Hustle lolx... but instead of Axes we had sticks with the RR amblem on it) Hahaz, so fun but I messed up my timing on the actual thing!! Argh!! Then sercie as per usual, Uriah got Ranger of the Year again! Two Years Running! Power! Cleared up and went home... tired and aching all over from squeezing in my Uniform for hours hahaz.. I need a new uniform ASAP!

Fast forward a boring night... Woke up early this morning... slacking now... Still have some HWK to do but I dont know how we are supposed to do it cos It is group work and some peopel just cant be online or around.. sigh... we'll see how things work out. Ooh Listening to Come What May, great song hahaz... Hmm... CET starts today! ^_^ And Ive got a little offer next week.. ill check it out though, worth a shot ^_^ Well I tihnk ill go prepare k? Bye Bye!

Beginning Of The Death Of Tommrrow

Yup, and that is the title of Bleach! Book 15 ^_^ Sounds a tad disturbing though... and the fold out page inside seems to promote drug taking or something.. ->"Things to take yo to high, Is not only wings" Wierd... but Bleach! has always been a wierd series splicing humor and action all together nicely.

It is Wednesday night again, and tommrrow is THURSDAY. Im beginning to Loathe Thursdays because of the existance of D&T. I might be becoming desperate enough to cram for chinese and that THAT mark instead of D&T in the Os cos my D&T is SO NOT FITTING ME!! Give me one chance to redo something and I would... No! I wouldnt choose not to take D&T! I'd choose to pass my year in 3I and go on to 4I and have already left by now!! Enough about that trash. I need to hand in my 8 problem situations tommrrow and 1 page of problem analysis... I have no idea how to do any of that.

It seems that the rule of Equivalent Trade has been broken! I dont know how but it just has... recently. In alchemy they say that the rules can only be bent by the use of the "Philosophers Stone". Well, I guess in life, God is my Philosopher's Stone, and more. He can bend everything XD Now I dont know how He is supposed to help but I just know He can. Funny ain't it, Ive just gone back again like a spring... from big bad confused mood yesterday into semi-perky happy today. I wonder... is semi pronounced "sam-eye" or "sam-ye" I prefer to use "sam-eye" If you dont get it... learn how to read... go for phonics class or something XD

Yikes.. I did it again. Blogged halfway went off to do something else and wasted 1 - 2 hours writing nothing hahaz. it is now 9:15pm, I began at 8:07pm lolx. Oops, I mean it is now 10:09pm and I am SUPER AGITATED!!! I cant do my D&T and I cant think of any ideas whatsoever. Plus instead of just my 8 problem situations I lso need to throw in a problem analysis. Time is runing short, I dont care what I'll have to do to finish it up I HAVE TO!!!

All I cant think of now is how to finish up folio assignment and let it burn until next week when we need to hand in more crap. Forgive my language from now on.. Im in a mood so bad anyone who crosses me now will not be very happy. Ok I shall not waste my time being on this page when im too over come by frustration to blog...

Break-Away

Heyz... feel very sian and lethargic today. First began with maths, yesterday I asked our dear piece of turd when was the test he said next week when it was in fact today!! Didnt study for it, most likely im not going to fail cos most of it was quite basic stuff ^_^ Continued my little quest for english today, with the help of monk and eugene interviewed a few teachers for the article thing. We are writing it tommrrow, cant wait ^_^

D & T again on Thursday!! After getting my 8 ideas torn up I need to find 8 new ideas.. pronto! And also do an Analysis thing... one page. But there's more to thursday than that! Thursday is finally the Camp Comm. 2004 meeting! On the 27th!! Approx two months since the camp... meeting up again ^_^ So excited and happy! Dont know why also... argh.. hope Anna does not pester me about her X'mas present again.. even though I doubt she is that petty... as in the previous times were just jesting... But to put it properly "I cant explain how good it feels to see you here again". On Thursday no less, on Rachel's orders so we can all go Prayer Meeting after that!! Whee.. seeing everyone again! I missed you... i mean all of you! Mm Hmm.. I can get my mind of school and all for just one period of time... One day in the house of God is better then a thousand days in the world, how true! ^_^

School is catchign up again, NCC tommrrow after school. I'll most likely be going but with no uniform and no explaination, I'll probably get railed at again.. Owch but I need that ONE or (Very unlikely) TWO points cut from my O level scores. I dont think I'll ever fufill my role as a photographer in NCC, after all, there is no hint of the "training course" I've heard about and time is running low as the middle of the year draws nearer still... was it just a ploy to draw me back just for attendence? I really dont know...

Today at CME, Miss Shim was talking about being a balanced person and she asked the class who there was a Christian... I saw this awesome chance and put up my hand, to my surprise someone else.. very unlikely person also did the same! The next thing disturbed me the most was that this person next to him began asking him questions and that guy just brushed him off with something like "Our teachings are sacred and private to Christians only" I wanted to jump up and shout at him not only for that but also cos he normally is no shining light!! I mean like OUR religion is not SACRED or PRIVATE! Then MAIN IMPORTANT thing is to SHARE IT WITH OTHERS! Dammnit! How selfish and daft can he get?! Now Im not even sure if he was a real Christian or not.. but that phrase just kicked me in the face!! Argh!!

Breaking away, falling apart. Dont know what keeps me together... I just want to talk to someone. Tell them all my fears and dreams and worries.. someone who will answer back.. someone I can see, someone I know fully well with all the physical evidence in the world exists. I dont know what stress is nor what it feels like but I know im lacking it. I've heard stress motivates us to work hard and all but... what is stress?? Am I stressed? By what??

I just feel like taking many bricks (or any heavy object) and hurling them outwards in a random direction or holding something moderately heavy and swinging it, just swing and trash it around until my arm aches and hurts so bad I cant throw/swing anymore then I'll scream, and I'll shout until I go hoarse and collapse in a sweaty tired heap. I want to stop time, to just lie back and sleep, and rest, close my eyes and forget all the things ive got to do, with no strings attached for just maybe 5 minutes. Thats all i ask, maybe five minutes, lose my sane mind, stop thinking about things and just live. Just look at the animals, they are fully content with a full belly and a warm nest, sometimes I feel my intellect is more of a burden then a gift...

Ha, no point talking about all this rubbish. If you get it, then you do, good for you, if you dont then you'll see ive got some issues up there *taps head* Aiya, im using no names here... logging off now... see you whoever is reading around soon k?

Im Back!

Wahaz! Im back! Much more relaxed but surely much more tensed! There was a small test today and there will be a big test tommrrow. Homework to be done and all, those 3 days were more of a time waster and tension builder then a stress reliever for me. But I had tons of fun! Below is a small breakdown of my trip.. and no i didnt buy any presents back (although I wish I had... I really should have!!!) Im so sorry!

First day, friday! Nice public holiday, woke up at like 8am or so and continued packing cos lazy me left my packing to the last minute hahaz, then waited around.. nothing interesting happened until 10:40am or so when our dear taxi ride arrived! I used my new bag as carry on ^_^ (Oh yea for those who didnt know I got a new bag! It was like what ive wanted just before school re-opened!!) Uneventful ride to the airport, checked in... and strolled about the terminal... quite a waste of time really, bought the new 8 days and drank an expensive bottle of mineral water (Argh.. airport stuff will always be expensive) Skip Skip Skip to boarding... ^_^ the SIA planes are really cool! I absolutely loved Kris-Flyer In-Flight entertainment system... *drool*

Uneventful flight.. abit of turbulence here and there... the fact that i dont do too well with heights did not help. But there was a calmness which assured me that nothing will go wrong... that I can have absolute faith in the pilot and crew. Thailand time is like 1 hour behind Singapore's so based on the clock ALONE the flight only took one hour hahaz (ok so it took 2 hours) and the Bangkok International Airport looked kind of run down from the outside but it's nice and modern inside ^_^ At the airport we booked a half day tour for the next day... how... last minute X_X

Took a charted Car to the hotel, it was a pretty decent place which was directly connected to a shopping mall ^_^the first day was quite wasted, went window shopping, due to our lack of proficiency in Thai, we were quite lost in the mall, wandering about, ate soem really nice doughnut like thing... fabulous... after eating dinner at a thai restaurant... all vegetables were raw and some things are like odd... nevertheless it was an.. experience after which we went back to the rooms freshen up, watch some un-intelligent thai tv which i knew nothing of and went to sleep (Thank God for the existence of cable on hotel TVs). Oh, the rooms were well furnished but there was a lack of slippers and some other small things in my room... *hmm*

Woke up at like 6am the next day X_X washed up, lazed about abit and then went for breakfast. Woah, the food is like awesome but the choice limited 0_0 Stuffed myself (that 3 days is gonna be worth like 3 months in TAF or something) then went to the hotel lobby... a half day trip to the local canal and some slight sight-seeing blew up into a halfday trip OUTSIDE thailand, visiting the Floating Markets (the pictures tell lies... there is a small "secret" to those nice pics), then to a Snake show (nothing interesting... just a guy who caught a snake in his mouth and a jumping snake that cound jump 2-3m when agitated) and a visit to a wood-carving place... cool stuff... but too expensive to buy anything back (a stool set cost about US$6,500) Then a COMPULSORY visit according to the tour guide to the "diamond industries" of Thailand... and my mother got hooked into buying a ruby pendant (Sigh... women and shopping.. we ALMOST didnt buy too many big things until THERE) then went back to the hotel and we went to he connecting mall again and ate dinner at this chinese restaurant... I must compare... Singapore is far better in terms of food :D

There was this lousy n00b waiter who told us that the 1,500 bhat sharksfin was out of stock so only the 2000 and above kind was avaliable... what a fake, so we ordered a 1,000 bhat version XD the guy must be like .. wah sian, backfire.. these tourists smart, never kena cheated LoLx then also had steamed prawns (only 9 pieces lor the whole dish... stingy) and a piece of snowfish steamed with soy sauce... now normally when you order it is ONE fish, this was ONE piece of ONE side of the fish... Im ready to kick someone now... anyway, we finished up and went back to the rooms, bathed changed and went SHOPPING! Almost bought tons of gifts but my father stopped me X_X hiyaz... became porter again, carry things hahaz... went back and packed my bags, ready to leave the next day... time really flew...

Next day I slept in late and woke up only at about 8-9am hahaz... but my mother took even longer to get ready and I had the time to watch tv in the hotel and they had One Piece and Shaman King, with Grander Musashi also! wahaz, just stoned there and wateched. You know whats BEST? It was ALL RAW! Not even in Thai! Raw Japanese! The SK episode was quite early... Yoh VS Tao Jun's "hired" (i tihnk) ninja person and I forgot what was on One Piece (didnt watch the whole show) but on Grander Musashi it was Musashi vs the Rose lady... oh and they also have Duelmasters... lame show.. totally disregards the rules (like most game based shows) and poor level animation. Took off to the airport in (again) another chartered car (Merc this time woah... nice leather haha) and took the plane.

Grr.. the inflight system on my row was spoilt and could not be fixed X_X How sad so i spent my flight sleeping... reached back and the rest need not be said the usual Sunday night ritual blah the blah.

Its kinds late... 10:23pm now i really want to stay and talk (oh my! [She's] online! but she aint talking... nvm she's like that all I need is to see her in her DP and ill be happy ^_^) But i gtg.. blog tommrrow about PROPER stuff like LIFE. Bye!
