Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Tuesday, August 12, 2008/ 2:50 PM
well well. the title for this post says it all. =]
last day of school! haha. holidays, here i come!! woohoo!! XD and to start off the (3 weeks?) holiday period, tomorrow a group of RP students will be visiting BMTC as a CE activity. and yes, i'm in that group. haha. yessir! it's been a long time since i did that man. aha. i miss those days. the days of NCC. XD ok, enough nostalgia for today. back to the present. =] currently in the school library now. slacking alone. watching rugby videos on www.rugbydump.com. alone? yes. i'm alone. it feels better alone anyway. some time for myself. boring? not quite actually. i enjoy some peaceful time by myself. it calms me down enough to carry with the day's activities. =] i have training later. so, yeah. in school now. typing in this post. and listening to McFly. haha. and i'm also searching for game footage of the currently playing Tri Nations Rugby 2008 on veoh. can't seem to find it. damn.. no matter. i'll never give up! =] ok, i want to wrap up this post for now. current events: bought an Adidas Questra yesterday. couldn't find telstar though. so questra it shall be. haha. went to buy it with her. odd though. the feeling i mean. amidst all the problems we're facing, we went out yesterday to go buy my boots and i ended up sending her home. haha. it's good though, seeing her again. but it's making me confused. haiz. life, live it. haha. and in other news, my canter bag is useless now! haha. the strap broke off from the bag itself, rendering it useless. damn. now i have to use a camping bag. damn. no other big bag. have to go get 1 soon. i don't want everyone who looks at me to think i'm going camping. haha. that's unthinkable! XD ok, i guess that's it or now. have to get back to searching for game footage. updates will come consitently eventhough i'm having my holidays. well, my holidays are ALWAYS spent in school no matter what. haha. till then, crawl ya'll ltr! peace. -pleasegivemesomethingthatmakesitallworthwhile- |

LIFE day 2
Friday, August 8, 2008/ 5:28 PM
hmmm, let's see what comes into my mind while i'm typing this. =] i'm currently in the school library. finished doing my school assignments for the day. OH! my class went to delifrance with our IM faci, Miss Siew Hui as an end-of-semester treat to ourselves for enduring INVENTORY MANAGEMENT as a module for 1 whole semester. we won't be having this module again, so we might as well give a last and decent frewell to it. haha. and our IM faci followed us. =] the food was nice. had grilled steak. haha. nothing special though. was just a normal grilled steak we could get from my school's artBites at TRCC. haha. but damn was it filling. and after our FEAST, we had a round of dare-eating. we smothered this prawn batter with alot of stuff; ALOT tobasco sauce, chilli sauce, mayonnaise, mozarella cheese, pepper (lots of it!), and last but not least bbq sauce. haha! we played 2 rounds until someone got it. winna would secretly choose a number and the rest of the people around the table would guess the number. the person who hits the number would be the LUCKY person to gobble down the abomination of a batter they call a masterpiece. the person who got the 'delicacy' was none other than Ophelia Lim Geok San, aka FISH. haha. we were all so relieved we didn't 'hit the jackpot' because we knew it was not going to taste nice. poor fish. XD and on another note, this year's National Day Celebrations back in Yishun Town were a load of crap. Although the GOH (Guard-Of-Honor) was still NCC and i hope it would stay that way for as fucking long as possible, the parade was damn bland. haha! and talking about events, 1 such event would be etched in my mind for the rest of my living life. XD 1 of my juniors in the GOH, who eventually was standing in the front row of the contingent, had a sort of 'unwelcomed' visitor. haha. his pants unfortunately fell to the floor when he stood at attention. WTH! haha. and the visitor was his underwear. XD such a shame. SUCH A SHAME. omg...... i felt so fucking embarassed at the moment while the other guys just showed their inability to hold back their laughter. haha. who the hell could when such an incident happens!!!!!! XD omg........ (I'M NOT FROM NCC) like real.......... haha. recently, ok not recently. YESTERDAY, i got EA Sports Rugby 08. haha. damn slow in getting it uh seriously. the other guys got it last year. and i'm just getting it NOW. -.- ok, it's quite nice actually. better graphics. better game play. ok, way better game play. i can actually play off a fucking scrum man!!!! like, FINALLY!!!!!!! wahahahahaha! played my 'inaugural' match in Rugby 08 with a match featuring the CRUSADERS vs the REDS. won it 77-7. hotdamn!!!!! =P now for more 'recent' news. got Photoshop CS3 from princess joreen. OR u can call her Joreen KOK Ying Ru. haha. thks joreen. =P and here's results of countless BORING hours of photoshop-ping: ![]() nothing better to do. accidentally found this unexpected photo while browsing through my pictures. XD and another one: ![]()
now, this one has memories. haha. i hope the person who reads this post and sees this picture feels something. if she doesn't, then i can't do anything else. =) ok, now. while on my way back to school with Joshua, Fish, Jeksen and Miss Siew Hui, we talked about everything under the sun. to questioning Joshua's motive of forgetting seeing Miss Siew Hui at the bus stop where they live ( yes, they live quite near to each other. ), to his credibility as a husband. wth! haha. now, that was one of the few moments while walking to school that i felt i was free of problems. =) someone close to me actually said this to me. it's considered her 2 cents of advice. haha. 1) if you really really love her, tell her so and never let her go. 2) if she has reaons out of your understanding for why she wants it this way, then it isn't meant to be. well, i agree with the first one. the second? maybe. maybe not. ok, that's it for now. getting quite cold here in the library. cold. alone. exactly how i predict my ife's going to be for the next few weeks or so. well, got to enjoy it while it lasts. haha. till then, crawl ya'll ltr! peace. |

Life
Thursday, August 7, 2008/ 11:20 AM
hey there!
life's great. it's wonderful to the point that i'm almost numb to the wonderful-ness of the situation. the gravity of such wonderful-ness makes me feel so WONDERFUL i feel almost NOT wonderful. haha. that doesn't make sense, does it? i really suck at this, don't i? i think i do. some other people might think i do. heck, if i think i do, then i do. -.- ok, i'm babbling again. haha. my life's a jumbled and tangled mess of uncertainties, problems and insecurities. why can't i just lead a smooth and happy life, where problems like these don't keep banging into me. a part of me says to let you go. let you be. leave you to your happiness. free you of me. but another says to hang on to you because i can't bear to see you go. well, what would I say to that. heck! i want both. now you're making ME confused. but i feel that its better for both me AND you that i let you go. let you find your own happiness. i won't hold you back from what you really want. life goes on. no point living in the past when others are already progressing into the future. well, this is my life. and this is how i'm bound to it. till then, crawl ya'll ltr! peace. -alotofmistakeshavebeenmadebyme.buti'mgoingtoregretthisthemost.- |

UPDATE
Monday, August 4, 2008/ 4:50 PM
SO LONG, NOW THEN UPDATE!?!?!? WTH!!!!!
-.- that must be what you guys are thinking, right? haha well, thank you all for waiting. eventhough this blog may feel like it's rotting, i don't think it is. i've been logging into blogger dashboard EVERY SINGLE DAY. BUT, i failed to post anything. clever, aren't i? =] i'm now currently alone in class, talking to myself, singing to David Cook out loud from my laptop and blogging this MUCH ANTICIPATED post. XD anyway, here's an update on what's been happening in my life these past week or 2: First and foremost, i would like to congratulate RP Rugby Warriors, class of 2008 a job VERY well done in this year's edition of POL-ITE rugby. We are now ranked 4th this year in the rankings of the POL-ITE teams, ahead of NP. -phew- =] here is how they fared throughout the 4-match edition: 1st game: RP vs NP at TP result: a win of 27-5 we now have 5 points plus 1 bonus point for scoring more than 4 tries in the game. 1W 0L description: 1st game, a must-win for the ruggers. and they duly delivered. 2nd game: RP vs SP at TP result: a loss of 5-19 points still remain 6 in the tables. 1W 1L description: 2nd game, morale is high after thrashing of NP previously. luck was not on our side as the opponents scored 3 relatively soft tries and we could not find our way past the opponent's tryline. 3rd game: RP vs TP at TP result: a loss of 0-32 points still remain 6 in the tables. 1W 2L description: 3rd game, hard match considering the opponent's heavier forward pack and talent in their squad. i dare admit we were completely decimated up front by their more 'sizeable' and stronger forwards, therefore eliminating the influence of our backs in the game. Last game: RP vs ITE at RP (homeground advantage) result: a hard-fought spectacular comeback draw of 26-26 points are at 7 in the tables. lose out to ITE because of their bonus point for scoring more than 5 tries during their game against NP. RP - 7 points, ITE - 8 points 1W 1D 2L description: the last game, a MUST-WIN in order for us to achieve a medal this year. went into the half-time break 19-0. fought our way back into the game by scoring a try early in the 2nd half as a response to ITE's early try minutes into the 2nd half. scored 3 unanswered tries throughout the half through constant pressure on the opponents, making the scoreline 26-19 going into the last 10 minutes of the game. got our last 'deserved' try late in the game, making the scoreline 26-26 with roughly 4 minutes left of playing time. RP desperately searching for that last try / penalty / dropkick to seal off the game and secure ourselves the 3rd place and a bronze medal this year. However, time was not on our side as the game unfortunately ended in a draw of 26-26. ITE gets 3rd due to their extra point accumulated. RP gets 4th. rankings: 1st - Temasek Polytechnic 2nd - Singapore Polytechnic 3rd - Institute of Technical Education 4th - Republic Polytechnic 5th - Ngee Ann Polytechnic ok, that's how RP Rugby faired for this year's edition of POL-ITE rugby. i've tried to be as in-depth as possible as my memory could remember. eventhough this update may be abit BIASED towards RP Rugby, heck I AM FROM RP RUGBY! =] ok, now for a look into my life. i try not to vent my emotions into this blog because i don't see the need to. i mean, why should i let everyone know of my troubles and challenges when all i get are words of encouragement and advice. i DO appreciate the thought you guys, my readers, give into your comments. but currently, i am trying to supress my feelings to myself and keeping it for myself to figure out. for those who MIGHT know what i'm going through can give me advice on those matters because i may need abit of help. i am not arrogant or stubborn in a way. i'm just trying to make myself more independent in solving affairs of the heart. ok, you know what. heck with the earlier paragraph. i AM going to vent my emotions here like it or not. haha. anyway, i'm still in class alone. listening to The Rasmus. don't know what to do next after i finish this post. haha. gym? home? fitness? syg went off early with her classmate to far east to meet up with einn for their day-out. and i'm stuck here with my laptop as my company. i am quite used to it though because i'm trying to 'climatise' myself with thi kind of routine. not having you here by my side. well, as long as you have fun with your bestie, i have NO complaints. =] ok, back to reality. had an outing last thursday with zul, elly, chew ling, K and eng seng to the Henderson waves, HortPark, Alexandre Arc, Mount Faber and Bukit Chandu. damn tiring i tell you!!!! i perspired until my whole shirt got wet. it was as if i just stepped out of the showers while still wearing my shirt and pants! haha. i know you guys are asking for pictures. i'll get them all soon, once i meet my syg for 1 whole day. haha. will post them up here SOOOOOOOOOON!!!! oh, and today is my parent's 24th year Anniversary! omg! That's freaking long la in my books. my own relationship is barely 1 year old. and i'm hoping it would stay strong for many more months to go. anyway, Happy Anniversary MUM & DAD!!! love you guys!!! you guys are the best!!! i don't have any pictures of them because my family rarely takes pictures together as a family. camera shy? nah.... lazy is more likely the reason. haha! the only time we get to take pictures is during our family camping trips to parks or beaches and during Hari Raya. and they're all taken in film, not digital. damn, got to get myself a digicam one of these days. for easy access! and easy usage! hehe. yeah, now i know what else to put into my WANTS list. a DigiCam. SET! =] time-check: 6:02!!! haha got to be going now. where? HOME!! sian uh to gym. lazy ass....................... haha. song listening to now: Stupify by Disturbed till then, crawl ya'll ltr! peace. Labels: digicam, life, parents, rugby, syg |
