I'm Forever Yours Faithfully

I had cramps in my leg muscle at the gym today while cycling on the bicycle machine and ended up pulling the muscle. Actually I already had the feeling in my guts my legs couldn't continue anymore but I was too ti ki (metal teeth in hokkien for those who don't know) to stop. I continued until I pulled a muscle then at that time it was really too painful to continue.

Some of you guys reading this may think I'm just a crazy guy who doesn't know his limits. Truth is whenever I feel like givin up in sports, I always remembered my dragonboat senior's words; "if its not called tough, it ain't called training" and "push yourself to the limit then you will know how far you can go" and this was the motivation that kept me goin even though the pain was there. As for today, maybe it wasn't such a good idea after all. I was limping the whole way home and even now it hurts like hell.

Anyway, on the way home guess who I saw on the bus? The very same group JJC gals I mentioned in one of my posts were sitting at the same spot. If you read my blog often you would know that the previous time I met 'em, they were walking about...let's just say they were fulfilling their curiousity but in a not so glamourous way. If you're dying to hear what they were talking about this time, sorry to disappoint you but I fell asleep almost immediately after I sat down just in front of 'em. Besides,why would you wanna know for?

Thats all for now.

another 45 days remaining...
surprisingly,I'm not as eager to go as I should be. In fact I feel the opposite.

Never Regretted One Bit Of It


Story Of My Life
Bon Jovi
Have A Nice Day

Yesterday’s a memory,
Another page of history,
You sell yourself on hopes and dreams
That leaves you feeling sideways.
Tripping over my own feet,
Trying to walk to my own beat,
Another car out on the street trying to find the Highway
Yeah, Are you going my way?

This is the story of my life
And I write it everyday.
I know it isn’t black and white
And it’s anything but grey.
I know that no I’m not alright, but I feel ok cos
Anything can, everything can happen
That’s the story of my life

I gonna write the melody
That’s gonna make history,
And when I paint my masterpiece I swear I’ll show you first.
There just ain’t a way to see who and why or what will be
Till now is then
It’s a mystery, it’s a blessing and a curse
Or something worse.

This is the story of my life
And I write it everyday.
I know it isn’t black and white
And it’s anything but grey.
I know that no I’m not alright, but I feel ok cos
Anything can, everything can
I been thinking and maybe
You can help me write the story of my life
What do you say?

This is the story of my life
And I write it everyday,
And I hope you're by my side when I’m writing the last page.

This is the story of my life
And I write it everyday.
I know it isn’t black and white
And it’s anything but grey.
I know that no I’m not alright, but I feel ok cos
Anything can, everything can,
I been thinking baby we can…
This is the story of my life,
The story of my life,
The story of my life,
This is the story of my life,
The story of my life,
This is the story of my life
.

I wanna write the story of my life with you by my side,
and with you in every page of it...

The Way It All Ends

Been a hectic week so far with all those swarming projects and almost everyday staying back in school till 8+pm.
At first it felt alright then it became really tiring and concentration sapping.
I hope this ends soon but not before I finish everything if not we're all screwed!
Can't exactly remember what happened for the past week except some bits and pieces of it here and there so bear with me.

I went for bs on Tuesday with Elyn at JEC after school. Lessons ended around 1 but I stayed back to do project until 6+ before heading off to JEC. Actually, I was already getting a headache after lessons ended and was thinking of cancelling bs but the thought of Elyn making the effort to give two persons bs at one go slapped me in the face. "You're just gonna listen and do a little writing here and there, what's it compared to Elyn when she has to talk and explain for an hour?" so Elyn if you read this, I really appreciate the time and energy you sacrificed. Anyway when I reached, there was Chris, JH, Sarah and Elyn. The first news I got was they were talking bad about me!!! I was like,"what the heck?!" I was so tired I really didn't bother until Chris told me what it was. I kept laughing to myself at the thought of sending her home in a sampan from Taiwan. Yup, you heard me right. When you've got no money for a plane ticket, all I can say is desperate times call for desperate means! >.<

Then yesterday, I skipped unitop tutorial..again. It wasn't intentional but I was really drained from the project work. I was planning to make it up to my conscience by goin to school to continue with the project but my friends and I ended up playing soccer for three hours under the hot sun. Been quite a while since I last played soccer apart from last week. If I remember correctly, the last time was back in sec 3 but it was street-soccer style. Man, now I've got aching all over my legs. A sign of getting old?
After that I went to meet the cg guys for ktv session in the Smith Street area. A lotta the songs they sang I have heard before but I just didn't know how to sing it considering I'm the more ang moh pai. The only one I know the lyrics well enough was "笨小孩" by Andy Lau and it wasn't even perfect. My singing was whacked, in fact it was horrible. Apparently there was only one new guy by the name of Jun Cheng, one of Chris's close friends from JJC. He's quite a funny guy and not a bad singer too. In fact, he sang with Chris quite a lot of songs..especially those love songs. Really enjoyed yesterday night with 'em.

Well thats all!

Aiya, tui ar! Tui ar!

Looking At The Same Moon

"You take my hand and pull me next to you, so close to you
I have a feeling you don't have the words
I found one for you, kiss your cheek, say bye, and walk away
Don't look back 'cause I am crying...

I remember little things you hardly ever do
Tell me why
I don't know why it's over
I remember shooting stars, the walk we took that night
I hope your wish came true, mine betrayed me..."

a part of Tallulah by Sonata Arctica.
I remember that I almost cried when I first heard it,
don't really know the reason why even till now,
but its my all time favourite.
I think there's a video on youtube on this song.
I just love the elegance of the piano notes and the guitar solo near the end.

Everyday I keep asking myself three things; When,Where and How? *sigh*
Like JH said, "the truth will set me free",
sounds Shakespeare-rish...
* * *
I'm really surprised at the rate I'm drinking coffee,
its like a fish drinking water!!
Yesterday alone I drank 5 mugs,
imagine the amount of caffeine intake and not including the tea I drank.
Man,I really gotta get rid of this addiction
before I get myself killed from caffeine overdose one day

devastation and obliteration, all to the point of exacerbation

Who Dares,Wins

14 hours at school!!Can you believe that?
I left the house at 6:30 and just got home half an hour earlier.
That PED project's been taking up most of my time since the holidays,
no life, no life, no life, no life, no life

* * *

Its funny how it feels when we want something so much,
but when we get it, sometimes we don't know what to do with it.
If you're wondering, yes,
the Big Boss has given the green light on Wed morning,
but I'm quite lost at what to do ever since.
If I charge in now,
it will feel like sending a mouse to storm a cat's den
and we all know what's gonna happen next.
Somebody?!Anybody?! A little help here?

Fret not if you don't get what I'm talking about, inside stuff.

If electricity come from electrons,
does morale come from morons?

Give Up?


The eye bags and runny nose from the lack of sleep,
so tired to even cook my meals and end up skipping it instead
crushed from pressure of the work loads and date lines...

All these were familiar back from the days of the O level exams,
something that I wouldn't want to experience again but here we are,
when one project finishes,another comes along right away.
Every morning I drag myself outta bed when its still dark,
asking me will this ever end?
I'm so sick of this life, I'll gladly give it away if I could...

Things happen,but we don't really know why

Les Enfants Terribles

You wanna get a headache? While doing Maths (university-style), try babysitting 3 kids whom at most of the time, running around, screaming at the top of their lungs and laughing like a bunch of hyenas along with a dog that runs along with 'em, yapping all over the place and playfully biting you every 10 mins or so. Man, I swear I'm terrified of these kinda kids more than any type of animals. I rather take care of a couple of dogs rather than even one kid!!

Another sacrifice to a tormenter your world wouldn't understand...
