( Forever Young, I wanna be Forever Young. )
Back to reality now, 3 more weeks of media schedules, monday meetings and the whole psychological effect.
Can't believe I've been here for two months already.
Extremely glad to be given this opportunity to learn and to expose myself, but at the same time I don't think I'd ever forget how tough this whole journey was.
Thanks everyone who has been there for me. ♥ |

“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.” |

hi world, contrary to my previous post (and im glad it is),
i had one of the best weeks ever in the longest time.
with meet ups finally, and having to sweat my guts out yesterday.
so i was being all excited bout frisbee all week, but first half an hour into the game and i was running my guts out with my lungs torn apart wondering WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING HERE?!
Haven't exercised proper in a loooooooonggggg time. (let's not count all the short sissy runs and swims)
i mean like no volleyball for 2 years, and suddenly having to run like a dog back and forth back and forth, marking people up and down the field. NO JOKE OKAY.
so afraid i'd faint or die halfway. what a way to create a first impression right.
lets see....a soccer field is like 5 times the size of a volleyball court.
a volleyball game lasts for like 20minutes and an ultimate frisbee lasts for 140MIUNTES.
hmm...........let's weigh the odds now.........................
so much for being all sporty and thinking of trying a new sport.
woke up with an effing sore back (i could hardly get up this morning) and i have bruises all over my hand.
ultimate frisbee ftwwwwww!
but then again it felt really good to be up and running sweating like a cow again.
and nice friendly people there, so yes it made the whole experience much better.
but it really did make me miss volleyball like crap,
really feeling the itch to be rolling around and jumping again.
spent the whole of last night contemplating if i should be brave and just sign up for volleyball alone.
though i'm having secret dreams of trying tennis, windsurfing, wakeboarding, diving, floorball, netball.
hur hur hur big dreams i have!
anyways, impromptu decision to meet the class guys for supper at chomps yesterday and gosh i really miss them so much.
listening to their army talks, taunting keithybeefy, laughing at all their silly antics, eating and being treated like like one of them (brothers) and going home fat, oily and happy at 330am.
SA oh SA, how i miss you so. the volleyball team, the classmates.
i'd do anything to go back to those days really.
( here's to the one i love the most, always have been and always will be..... )

hi world,
i figured i think too much for my own good.
all these thinking and pondering boils down to nothing at the end of the day.
i need to study study study study study :(
feeling very disoriented and distracted this semester, no idea why.
haven't been going out much too, felt so weird to be in town today.
so no idea what i've been doing. staring into space thinking thinking thinking.
or wasting time in front of the dear television.
identity crisis it is.
fair, un-sporty, haven't been going to town, haven't been doing much meet ups (sorry) and NOT STUDYING.
what the hell am i doing really. wake up ah khoo.
stop screwing up your life and get back on track!
okay remind me to study study study. i want DWD!
but its okay, i feel a few steps closer towards my 2010 goals already.
ultimate frisbee, taiwan and more marathons here i come...........(i hope)
i miss you tansimin, bestfriend, f&f and fantastic4!

it has been such an amazing zing zing zing week with an exclaimation mark at the end,
i've never felt better and i think im so happy i've contained enough excitement and joy to do cartwheels and fly in the air in spite of the exhaustion and depleting funds.
for every candle i blew out, it was the same wish over and over again
" for things to always remain this way (: "
because it honestly couldn't have been any better,
and im absolutely contented with everything in my life right here, right now.
(at least before the results are out/ before school starts heh heh)
( when the words are simply not enough....♥ )

hi i'm an old fart that has got no mood for anything
shopping trips have been a major disappointment by far,
mambo almost killed me halfway, giving me sore legs for a few days.
(as my body helplessly cried for rest and sleep over the next few days)
i think i've got a body of a thirty year old. oh noooooooo.
highlights of the holiday: HONGKONGGGGGG + getaway with f&f + SHAPERUN
(can't wait can't wait can't wait!)
too old and rusty for whatever 10hour shopping trips in town/ cityhall everday for two whole weeks/ movie marathons/ late night suppers every night.
say goodbye to the old dawn, and hello to the new nerd ball that would rather stay home to read her book.
only thing that makes wana go out is for nice yummy english breakfast and a cup of good coffee. yummmm <3 who can resist it?!
time to start jogging and swimming.....my brother just told me i ate like a COW during my exams.
very comforting to know............sooooooooooo anyway,
all the best to all the loves that are still having your exams.
hang in there and you'll have the next 3 months to go crazy yes (:

i know im supposed to be studying but i REALLY need to blog tonight. went back to SA for life concert and it was really good.
i think it was just about the right time because everyone was having a down-period in their lives,
that really got us questioning our faith and what to believe in.
be it the school workload, the exam stress, the problems at home, the unanswered questions or whatever else there is.
and i know it's weird to say this because im not christian,
but i really felt god's presence there tonight, and it really did touch my heart.
maybe it's because we're feeling all horrible from whatever we're going through now,
maybe it was the words,
but whatever it is, it was a good reminder that we're not alone.
when everything around you fails, there's still someone up there watching over you
and the pastor said "we come to SA for a short two years, but we'll look back and not just think about the results, or the studies, but instead the friends that we've gained, the true friends that stuck by you through the studies, that pushed you to study, that were there for you"
indeed, this is very very very true. i love you f&f for everything you've done. for the tough yet fun times we endured together. for being such true friends that are genuine in every way , that don't judge, but instead accept each and every one of us for the way we are. For all the encouragments we've given to each other and this bond that we've created. i'm really glad this friendship is here to stay, and thank god i had you guys to make my JC and after-JC life so fufilling. love you guys plenty <3 and of course, not forgetting qi and wen from faraway land (:
thank god for everything i have in this life.
and for everything that i have taken for granted.
tonight, i'd like to pray for the health of the people close to us,
and for everyone who's having a down-period in their lives.
things would only get better so smile, and don't lose faith.
we'll get through this, soon.
