Slow Day...

2004-12-02T23:58:00.000-08:00

Ytd night had an argument with my mum. She was complaining that I spent so much time in front of the computer. I was mad because that’s so untrue, I’m hardly online lor. Thankfully, we managed to break the fuming rage within us, and talk things out.

Taufik won the S’pore idol yay haha S’pore is not blind (Opps, no offence Sly’s fan, Sly’s great but I think Taufik’s voice is still stronger). I think Sly’s version of “I Dream” is sweet and melodious, but Taufik’s filled with conviction. Btw, I like that song a lot and the other done by all the S’pore idols “That’s what friends are for” yea.

Today’s a slow day for me, everything’s going at snail pace. I wanted to make little x’mas gifts, however no inspiration yet and still waiting. I was smsing my friend and he told me that he was playing bball…ah I also want to play…so long since I last touch a ball, I feel so fat, bulky and unfit, I miss P.E. lessons and exercising.

Back again in the afternoon, watched two shows today, “The Wild Thornberries Movie” and a Korean drama. I’d learnt two different things from watching them.
From TWTM, I learnt the meaning of believing in yourself, the uniqueness of each one, the loyalty and strong friendship and the special talents in everyone, e.g. Ginger had a specially deep love and care for animals, and that enabled her to save the elephants even when she no longer could talk to them.
It was the last episode of the Korean drama, and I found it very meaningful, one of the main actresses was going abroad to study and what her good friend told her I found it to be so real and meaningful. “Whenever you feel alone our 3 secrets still stand, they’re your friends, family and love, whenever you feel like you’re groping around in darkness and feeling depressed, your family, friends and love shall bring you through”. This is so true, BUT an amendment to it we still have God, yay J who will never leave us nor forsake us.

Hmmm, I’m just chilling to music typing all these now feel so slack and somehow I need some excitement. Some of my friends are overseas in M’sia and Australia etc hey people I’m kind of missing you all right now. Hope you all are having fun, come back and share with me your experience yah SMILE. Yup, reminders for people have nice stuff quotes anything share with me k yup. K, as usual let’s end this with something nice and true haha reflection time...

Many people will walk in and out of your life. But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart. To handle yourself, use your head, to handle others, use your heart. Anger is only one letter short of danger. If someone betrays you once, it is his fault, If he betrays you twice, it is your fault. Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people. He, who loses money, loses much; He, who loses a friend, loses much more; He, who loses faith, loses all. Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself. Friends, you and me.... You brought another friend ... And then there were 3.... We started our group.... Our circle of friends.... There is no beginning or end .... Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift. You will always be treasured by me. God Bless!!

Missing everyone ....

Yesterday was my prom cum graduation night. It was a spectacular sight, everyone was so pretty and different. I’m so proud of Pearlly, Miss 4B1 yes you’re still the prettiest and hottest girl we all recognize. I curled my hair, had locks for once. The people that looked really different to me were Christabel and See Fei. Normally, See Fei just seem like the neat, “guai” and not really outstanding prefect but at the prom ytd she looked totally astonishing, wow, gor wished you were able to see her.

Wanted to go clubbing or stay over at the hotel with the clique but mum wanted me home so had no other choice, but at least I had fun. We sang the four theme songs that we learnt in our years in PL and ytd’s school song was a blast everyone sang their heart and lungs out it was the loudest since our 4 yrs guess when we’re leaving will we treasure and start to miss everything and everyone. Picture taking was the norm last night, I used up 36 pictures of film and 20 slides in my digital camera. Wished my best friend was there, wanted to see her in make-up and gown. The food was great, I especially like the jelly-fish and shredded chicken meat cold dish. Oh thanks Gordon for keeping me accompany when I was bored ytd. Haha *wink*

I went home really high and perked up still don’t know why though yup just couldn’t sleep last night so I stayed up to write farewell letters that I’m going to send till 2 plus am. I had this strong sense of sadness at the same time happiness to anticipate the new school environment and friends. I’ll miss my friends, everything, and everyone. I still vividly remember what my principal said on the day we received our prelims results, “ your friends in PL, keep them, your secondary school friends are your true friends, keep in touch with one another and don’t forget them” Hey people, I promise I won’t k.

Hmmm, just finished making 11 x’mas card, it’s December already so fast and very soon next month I’ll start school already and the whole procedure of studying the routine occurs again. I’ll probably see my “O” levels results if they’re just average like 14-16 pts, I’ll opt to join the poly life. Oh whoever that’s free and know music pls feel free to contact me, I need to practise for choir auditions yup.

There’ll be S’pore idol tonight I hope Taufik wins, at least he can sing, he has the talent. I was originally both hands raised for Olinda but sad to say she was voted out. Hope the S’porean audience will go for good voice and talent rather than cutie looks or smiles. If not it’ll be rather embarrassing to have a representative in the world idol from S’pore who can’t sing yah, and it’ll also be injustice to those who supports the good voices.

Three more days to “The One Camp” yay can’t wait to go for the camp at least one event for me to really look forward to. Oh to my camp members sorry on Tuesday I’d prom so couldn’t go down to help you with the flag if there’re other ways I can help let me know, I’ll try my best to.

“ We never know when or where our road will come to an end
If it will stay straight or come to a bend.
So never let what other people think of you, change you.
Just do what you want and be proud of everything wonderful you do.
Have courage and no fear
And other people will see you clear.
Don’t be a follower who follows the crowd.
Instead, be a leader who stands on one’s own cloud.
Be kind to everyone and show them love.
Use the talents and gifts that you were given from above.
Tell the ones that you love how much you care,
Tell them how you promise, no matter what you will always be there
We don’t know where or when our road will come to an end.
If it will stay straight, or come to a bend.
So live everyday as if it is your last
Because time and life go by so fast.”

Treasure everyone as you can yah yup hope this poem touches your hearts. J

Appreciative cum bloggie day

Today’s a day before my prom. My neighbour was going to condition my hair then go and steam it, however I was not in the mood to, maybe PMS or just really hurt? Why do people nowadays say “I Love You” without giving it a second thought or truly meaning it?

Yesterday had my first caroling practice, the process of learning the songs reminded me of my choir practices in school, I miss my juniors and my “mei”s, hey people if you see this, let me know when’s the next choir practice and upcoming events k thanks. It takes all the determination, perseverance, patient, passion and love to succeed in life. Didn’t really have a good impression of a girl there though, she looks kind of arrogant, never mind, perhaps it’s just me being too sensitive, “vengeance is for God”.

I miss my best friend so much, hope to hang out together after you return from Australia k, take care girl. I am sorry about not being able to accommodate or fit well the other time k forgive me yah.

Church camp is approaching yea hope it’ll be extremely fun, that I’ll get to really get to make new friends, socializing session huh haha and get to know some people better, to build leadership skills and coordination as a group. I pray for God’s strong presence to be there to touch every hearts.

First entry so I shall make it appreciative too:

Parents for bringing me into this world, for their guidance and all the sacrifices made.

Best friend for giving me advices, to help me grow stronger and mature, to see the light giving me a better perspective of things when everything’s so grey, for being special and trying to understand me.

Yiling she ah very greatest good friend who loves me a lot and always there to remind me that..an angel that came to my life unexpectedly but deeply needed and influential. She reminds me of God’s grace and faithfulness, I really admire her constant prayerful self. I learnt my “whining” and wacky self from her. Thanks girl really love you so much as well.

Thanks. I love poems and quotes so pls feel free to share with me some.Thanks!

You’re are very Special
In all the world there’s nobody like you. Since the beginning of time there has never been another person like you. Nobody has your smile, your eyes, your hands, your hair. Nobody owns your handwriting, your voice. You’re special.
Nobody can paint your brush strokes. Nobody has your taste for food or music, or dance or literature or art. Nobody in the universe sees things as you do. In all time there has never been anyone who laughs in exactly your way and what makes you laugh or cry, or think may have totally different response in another.
You’re different from any other person who has ever lived in the history of the universe. You’re the only one in the whole creation who has your particular set of abilities. There’s always someone who’s better at one thing or another. Every person is my superior in at least one way. Nobody in the universe can reach the quality of the combination of your talents and your feelings. Like a roomful of musical instruments, some might excel in one way or another, but nobody can match the symphonic sound all are played together- Your Symphony.
Through all eternity, no one will ever walk, talk, think or do exactly like you. You’re are Special. You are rare and in all rarity there’s enormous value and because of your great value, the need for you to imitate anyone else is absolutely wrong. You’re are Special, and it’s no accident that you’re. Please realise that God made you for a special purpose. He has a job for you to do that nobody else can do as well as you can. Out of billions of applications only one is qualified. Only one has the unique and right combination of what it takes- and that one is you. You’re Special!

River of Dreams

River of dreams take me with you tonight
Lying in your arms we’ll drift
Islands of wonder that gleam and glow
Under the stars
As we glide through the dark
To the heart of the night

Rivers of dreams gently hold me again
I remember all you told me
All of the secrets you whispered as we crept away
From the daylight and melted back into night

Was I awake
Or did I dream
The kiss of waves
The silver slipstream
That tumbles as it turns again towards the sea

River of dreams softly flowing away
Let me follow where you’re going
And make me a part of you
Deep in the heart of you
Let the reflection be clear
In the water of life
That tumbles as it turns again towards the night

That tumbles as it turns towards the night.
