was very touched when my principal sang this song to us...
especially meaningful lyrics...
enjoy the music....
and feel the love... =)
Don't lose your way
With each passing day
You've come so far
Don't throw it away
Live believing
Dreams are for weaving
Wonders are waiting to start
Live your story
Faith, hope & glory
Hold to the truth in your heart
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I
Souls in the wind
Must learn how to bend
Seek out a star
Hold on to the end
Valley, mountain
There is a fountain
Washes our tears all away
Words are swaying
Someone is praying
Please let us come home to stay
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I
When we are out there in the dark
We'll dream about the sun
In the dark we'll feel the light
Warm our hearts, everyone
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
As high as souls can fly
The clouds roll by
For you and I

exam stress...
just a few photos that i took yesterday and today...
drank two cups of nescafe coffee and a cup of vanilla coffee frappe...
no doubt that kept me awake the whole of yesterday night, until 4.30am...
and forced by a dizzy spell to go sleep, even though i'm not tired at all...
woke up at 0730 today...
for a moment i thought i was floating...
took me awhile to regain...
then out again...to work hard...=)

was attempting to take a nice photo with melia...but there were so many obstacles...XP
obstacle 1:
she ignored me by continuing to punch keys on her g.c.(graphic calculator)...
when i managed to 'overcome' that obstacle, here comes the 2nd one...
obstacle 2:
she made funny faces instead of smiling!!*.*
and last but not least...
obstacle 3:
lousy photographer skills(that's me!!)...haha...XP
but well, here comes the best...
=)
=)and of course, a little something for me and my bro...=)
felt guilty for buying 2 cups of coffee within a day, within the night...especially when the cup is made of styrofoam...X(
so i wrote this on my 2nd cup of coffee:
also, my 3rd cup in two days, but 1st today...
finally, ending off with best wishes.......
jia yous for term tests TP mates!!
jia yous for prelims SRJCians!!
jia yous to myself too!!
cant afford to waste another year anymore...

what goes around comes around...=)
One day a man saw an old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and hungry.
He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. It was that chill which only fear can put in you.
He said, "I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson."
Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack,skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.
As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid.
Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.
He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, "And think of me."
He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home,disappearing into the twilight.
A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her trip home. It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn't erase. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger.Then she remembered Bryan.
After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill.The waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady had slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be.Then she noticed something written on the napkin.
There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: "You don't owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let this chain of love end with you."
Under the napkin were four more $100 bills. Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve, but the waitress made it through another day. That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written. How could the lady have known how much she and her husband needed it? With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard....
She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low,"Everything's going to be all right. I love you, Bryan Anderson."
well, another non-relevent, but important thing to add on:
all the best for you guys' last term test!!!ganbatte!!! =)

random...random......random.........
just thought that it would be nice to share with you guys a little stuff that came to my mind while i was bathing just now...
just happen to think of someone who is trying, not very hard, but it is visible, to get back into my life...if you might be wondering, yes, it is 'get back'...at least he is the only one whom i loved so much...and so long...3 years...but that was all in the past...if he had come back earlier, i definitely will receive it with open arms...but i guess this few years of heart breaking reality have got me immune to him, unknowingly...
im pretty sure he wont get to see this posting...but my point of saying all this is not for him to see, but for my dear friends, that is you guys...
what i want to say is that...
please treasure those who are still around you...
because you will regret not treasuring him/her enough when it comes to a day where he/she leaves you...
i always try my very best to treasure those around me...
not because i want the same amount of care and love in return,
i never expect the same in return,
because i know that does not happen all the time...
or perhaps, most of the time...
at least when applied to me...
but because i know,
if one day i am gone, or they are no longer around,
at least i would not have any regrets for not treating them good enough...
because i know, i have done my very best for them...=)

4th august is my mum's birthday!! =)
my bro and sis brought us all out for buffet dinner at sakura restaurant as a celebration for my mum...then that night when i reached home, i baked a cake...its my first attempt!!hahah...miraculously, it was quite a success!!*grins*
then on saturday morning, my bro specially woke up exceptionally early, and we surprised her with the cake...haha...then i asked her to help me check our mailbox...but in actual fact is that i left her birthday card inside!!haha...cunning, arent i? XP
had my archery theory test today...hopefully i'll pass...=Xafter archery, me and melia went to airport to study...saw a few srjcians too...
just as we are about to leave, like 5-10 minutes before, the two secondary school girls sitting at the table beside us shot me a maths question on RELATIVE VELOCITY...if you didnt realise, let me fill you in a little on my secondary school life...my additional maths was alright for all the topics except for relative velocity...yes, and i totally give up on that topic even before my prelims...and i even made sure that i wont have to do that topic before i took the double maths combination in tpjc for the first three months, three years back...so yep, back to that situation, i tried the question and praying hard that i would not embarrass myself infront of two secondary school girls...and guess what, i manage to solve that question!!i was so proud of myself for that achievement that i keep talking about it...haha...and melia say shes sure that i'll mention it for another one yr...wth~~~ -_-"haha...and she got bombarded with a question while i was in midst of solving that relative velocity question...haha...she even asked me to go and lend a graphic calculator from some strangers so that she can check the answer...haha...so because of that, it was near 7pm when we left and headed for bedok 85...
took this on the mrt to bedok...nice isnt it? =)
yep, and the last present for my mum this year, is to go bedok 85 and get her favourite 'ou jian', while melia got satay for my mum...so nice of her isnt it? =)
then we went back to my house and eat together, before melia went home...(and i shall not mention that she took a cab home...AGAIN...haha!!=P)
love story...
fall in love with this song the first time i heard it...even though i didnt know the lyrics...so after checking the web for the lyrics, here's it...hopefully they are the right ones...=)
Love Story by Melody
Let you go
Didn't know
I would drown in the waves
Fell too deep
Out of reach
I'm someone you wouldn't save
And now all I have is the dark
I tell you this
There's a missing piece in the heart
I wish I could get over you
I said I didn't miss you
Too late to say I'm sorry
So how come my eyes are filled
I feel like I'm about to die
My heart has a whole inside
I'm missing you
And nothing could ever erase
I'll hold all the memories
My only wish is you and me
String of life
Burning down
To its core and no way out
Haunted by
Dreams at night
I just cry, I rather die
And now all I have is the dark
I tell you this
There's a missing piece in the heart
I wish I could get over you
I said I didn't miss you
Visions of you are vanishing
So how come my eyes are filled
I feel like I'm about to die
My heart has a whole inside
I'm missing you
And nothing could ever erase
I'll hold all the memories
My only wish is you and me
6 years and I am still holding on
To be with someone else...Feels so wrong
I could still believe, but I just can't, I got the knife
I thought I could
But it didn't go as far as it should
So how come my eyes are filled
I feel like I'm about to die
My heart has a whole inside
I'm missing you
And nothing could ever erase
I'll hold all the memories
My only wish is you and me
My heart has a whole inside
I'm missing you
And nothing could ever erase
I'll hold all the memories
My only wish is
My heart is bleeding
I am dying inside
I need you here
It's you and me
流れてゆく人混みの中
後ろ姿 ずっと見ていた
運命の悪戯で出逢えた 奇蹟を抱きしめて
傷ついてもいい 切なくてもいい
今だけ信じて
もがいて 描いてゆく 恋物語
見えない明日 綴りながら
孤独に佇む時 傍に居たいの
迷わないように
耳に残る あなたの声を
瞼とじて 思い出してる
もどかしさに疲れて
誰かを傷つけるのならば
優しい笑顔も 胸打つ言葉も
忘れたいけれど
もがいて 描いてゆく 恋物語
始まらずに 終わるのなら
心に 鍵をかける
叶わぬ恋が 目覚めないように
想いを伝えられたら
他には何もいらない
子供みたいに 素直に泣く私を
あなたの手で 目覚めさせて
もがいて 描いてゆく 恋物語
もう一度 声を聴きたい
届かぬほどに 遠く離れていても
迷わないように
見えない明日 綴りながら
孤独に佇む時 傍に居たいの
ふたりいつか 素顔のまま 出逢えたなら
強く抱きしめて
nagarete yuku hitogomi no naka
ushiro sugata zutto mite ita
unmei no itazura de deaeta kiseki wo dakishimete
kizutsuitemo ii setsunakutemo ii

emo...
knowing things are no longer like before...
and they will never be...
do i regret?
i would be lying if i say i dont...
so what if i say i do?
would it change a thing?
would everything revert back to as it was?
if by saying it would revert everything back to as before,
i wouldnt mind saying it a million times...
but well, too bad reality is just cruel...
what can i do?
nothing, i would say...
i tried so hard before to make things work...
but it just didnt...
neither would it in the future...
my feelings are already numbed...
yet, it still hurts...
perhaps i was healing sub-consciously...
but i would rather not...
afterall...
friends...
no matter what, there will just be boundaries, isnt it?
no matter how hard i try to overcome them...
but they are always there...arent they?
tired am i...really tired this time round...
and they will never be...
do i regret?
i would be lying if i say i dont...
so what if i say i do?
would it change a thing?
would everything revert back to as it was?
