random

Thursday, July 28th, 2005

i dont know what i’m doing. just finding a space to pour out my thoughts and complain. this post is just super random. wanted to type smth to while my time away and get things off my chest. oh right. feeling so shagged by everything now. the days just come and go. with tests everyday. i feel like i’m living and studying bcus of tests. no test means rest day = slack all the way. take this wk, 4days 7 tests, only tmrw no test and here i am watching teevee, online, dont even touch my books. wht am i doing ? i knw i’m supp to switch to studying mode. but but but…and i keep giving excuses for the tests tht i dont do well in, and i’m really feeling the shaggness and weariness of evrything. just dont feel like doing anth. WHY ? this is really zapping my energy.

i’m thankful for the sports trip , thou its smack in the middle of mocking mock tests and all but i’m glad at least theres smth to look fwd to and some fun to hv. for once i can let go and dont study and enjoy some friendship bonding. hurr, super cant wait. this wk is really passing so slowly. HURRY UP.

aiyahhh super bored now. chatting with danfong. hmmm…hahahah so interesting and funny.

aiyah nth to crap anymore. bye.

riverwalk / milk run

Sunday, July 3rd, 2005

the past 2 days had been eventful and relaxing, didnt accomplish much for studies although the nxt wk is DIE week. so here goes.

sat : went out with family to clark quay for dinner and we were like tourists taking photos by the singapore river. the evening scene was truly relaxing in this period of time for me. :) nice weather, nice setting. just so great. and the sky was a beautiful hue of pink / red. military airplanes were zooming all over the evening sky, creating nice patterns of smoke trails. never knew singapore had such a captivating sight.

after the dinner, we took the mrt to the nxt stop only and it was a once in a life time experience. the train suddenly stopped halfway and semi-blacked out. wooh. and the person sitting opp us was calmly reading this book entitled ‘dying to live’ haha.

MILK run - mainly i love kids run.

arrived at zouk early. and yimei,swei,pam,estee and i were just walking ard aimlessly. hah somehow we had this ‘just for laughs’ feeling and we formed the ‘just for laughs’ crew. we stood outside the makeshift cubicle waiting for someone whom was a stnicks girl, and whom we sorta knew to carry out our joke. that is to clap and cheer when the person came out of the cubicle.super hilarious !

the ‘run’ was alright. haha. we just ran the last 500m. not bad an experience. its no wonder why i nver participate in the BIG WALK. hohoho. 5.3km is enough .

after the whole event. cabbed with my sis to botanical garden to meet up with friends and family. when we arrived, sly was singing/crooning to his music and i swear my goosebumps were standing ! super out-of-tune. sorry to those who love sly. erm yeah but, its the fact. then taufik came on and he sang ‘me and mrs jones’  superb ! hah (i’m not being bias here)
oh wells. anw then tanya came on. her songs were alright but cldnt hear wht she sang so, many many pple left. sad case. we left shortly after tht too.

surprisingly i wasnt really that tired. but anyhows, now i am tired, and tmrw have trg, so gotta go sleep early. oh now’s 12am btw. talking abt early. heh.

how bout a dedication ?

Me and Mrs. Jones, we got a thing going on,
We both know that it’s wrong
But it’s much too strong to let it cool down now.

We meet ev’ry day at the same cafe,
Six-thirty I know she’ll be there,
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the jukebox plays our favorite song.

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones,
Mrs. Jones got a thing going on,
We both know that it’s wrong,
But it’s much too strong to let it cool down now.

We gotta be extra careful
that we don’t build our hopes too high
Cause she’s got her own obligations and so do I.

Me, me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones,
Mrs. Jones got a thing going on,
We both know that it’s wrong,
But it’s much too strong to let it cool down now.

Well, it’s time for us to be leaving,
It hurts so much, it hurts so much inside,
Now she’ll go her way and I’ll go mine,
But tomorrow we’ll meet the same place, the same time.

Me and Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones.

<< abstract from an inspiring email >>

death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share.

No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.
Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.


Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.
Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other
people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
