home-no-work

The official end of term break. Back to school today. Studied more in three hours in the library today than the whole of the term break at home combined. Why?? Why?? Don't ask me because i also don't know. Maybe because i cannot study at home. Too many distractions around if you know what i'm talking about. But sometimes also don't feel like going out to study. Especially alone. Conclusion: Don't study. Also cannot. Someone talking about choices. This is what i call a tough choice. Somehow can see a couple of Cs this semester coming. Although i said i won't get another C in my NUS career again. Like Macbeth with his appariations. Too many things going on in my mind lately. Bad thoughts. Seven weeks gone, seven more to go. God bless me.

Just came back from another 'class' gathering. Special guest appearance. More thoughts running through my mind. Need to sleep. Again. Can't carry on now.

Newcastle vs Man City. GoGoGo.

first win of season

Yeah. Newcastle FINALLY won tonight. After six attempts. Star strikers Shearer and Owen both got onto the scoresheet. One up against blackburn (sorry about that mr blackburn if you know who i'm talking about). Full reports to follow.... nah just joking. But actually didn't catch this match. Caught manu vs liverpool instead. Super boring and eventless match. Only entertainment is not the football but watching alan smith on his road to conversion to a defensive midfielder. Quite funny already midweek against villaereal. Today also very funny. People don't believe me when i say he anyhow slide in ten times and only comes out one with the ball. Now you know. But entertainment nonetheless. Then there's another idiot today in the form of sinama-pongielle (think that's how you spell). Also very funny. Nothing exciting about the suppossedly big match though. It's all chelsea now sadly. Let's all start mourning.

Term break officially starts in a matter of minutes. Gotta do some seriously studying. Serious.

Anyway to a friend (a fan of this blog might i add)... Happy Birthday dude. Not too old yet. But not younger anymore. Haha. And you're not as stupid as people (namely us) say you are. May your wishes come zhen. Here's to you and all birthday guys/gals... to share a nice song with you all...



T H E B I R T H D A Y S O N G
(Written by Corrinne May Ying Foo)

Don't worry about that extra line
That's creeping up upon your face
It's just a part of nature's way to say you've grown a little more
Trees have rings and thicker branches
Kids shoes get a little tighter
Every year we're getting closer to who we're gonna be
It's time to celebrate the story of how you've come to be

Happy Birthday, my friend

Here's to all the years we've shared together
All the fun we've had
You're such a blessing
Such a joy in my life
May the good Lord bless you
And may all your dreams come true

So light a candle on your cake

For every smile you've helped create
For every heart and every soul you've helped to grow
A little more
A few more pounds, a little more grey
Don't count the years, just count the way
It takes a little time to go from water into wine
Don't ever lose the wonder of that child within your eyes

hv fridays

Second friday in a row at holland village chilling and talking cock with my 'brothers'. Away from school. Away from work. Away from everything. Well almost. Everyone also busy with different things. As we grow older will have to upgrade. Can see myself at a coffee shop with a belly drinking tiger beer. Who wants to join?? Ha....

Official start of term break. ME don't have any mid term tests. None. Both good and bad. But still hope to catch up with as much of work as possible. Really feel like i'm in week 2 or 3 only not week 6. Dua zhong. Gotta be focused now. Good time to start. Wish me good luck.



我以为我已经忘了你,其实只是没有见到你。

goodbye... my... school

No lah... three more years to graduation. If all goes well.

Great news. This is a great week. Other than completing my first tutorial. No lab this week. Friday is our (don't know for what also) engin day so it's a half day schoolday. BUT my friday tutorial is on odd weeks so this week morning don't have. Lecture also cancelled. Computer lab also don't have. So... yes... the eagerly awaited... I HAVE NO SCHOOL!! So that makes my term break technically one week (from the usual four days). So happy until can't even write it down properly. But then again will be sad again really soon. Till then... lets all be happy.

Bumped into (qiao yu) a JC classmate on the mrt just now. Only reminds me that that class is really like a handful of sand. So sad. But no choice i guess. Don't know if i should say this here.

Friend (aka b.) just told me he loves james blunt. More than damien rice. I say again. Cannot compare. But here's something for him...


Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

achievement...so high

What an achievement today!! I finally completed doing my first full tutorial today. 6th week into the semester. Halfway through. Mid point. And any other word you deem fit. Very happy. Quite high. Also finished another formal laboratory report. Now can have a break from lab sessions for two weeks. Yeah. Semester break next week. Although a bit weird and stupid from monday to thursday. Still yeah.

Einstein said: "Do things simple, not simpler."

Let's not doubt da man here. Though he made some mistakes before also like the cosmological constant. Woah....

So high. High.



Beautiful dawn - lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see (with you).

Beautiful dawn - I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night.

Beautiful dawn - melt with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end (of time)?

Beautiful dawn - You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you.

But now I'm high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

you're beautiful


And this is what i'm talking about. Latest edition to the family. (Damn heavy ok from suntec to home. Now hand pain again. It's good to have a car sometimes. Or at least know someone with a car.)

Finally know who dorain gray is. Thanks.



My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful.
You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

tears and rain

It's being a while since i made an appearance here. Constantly feeling very tired lately. Too tired to want to do anything. Think something is seriously wrong with my body and mind. Havn't done any studying to date, though we're already into the 5th week of the academic calender. Havn't put any effort into the tutorials either. What is wrong with me?? Is this what some people call 'giving up'??

Gotta start soon.

Gotta start now. Ya......




Cannot.

Sigh.

Went COMEX this evening. Damn bloody crowded. Not the first time experience this kind of thing anyway. But it never fails to amaze me. Stuck again at the bridge between city link exit and suntec city. Also don't know for how long. To and fro. Both times. Sweat like hell. So technically started squeezing even before going into the convention halls. Inside worse?? Very hard to judge. But just three words. Damn bloody crowded. But at least bought something big there this time. Now my table looks a bit more spacious. Maybe this can spur me on to study. But was quite a task carrying it all the (long way) home. Very good workout. Felt very fit when i reached home. Now hands a bit aching. Haha. Tough choice and decision to make. But no room for regrets now. None.

England won 1-0 last night. Barely made it. But frankly don't really like to watch them play. Some countries abeit lesser known play nicer and more beautiful football. Why they cannot?? I also don't know. Another match midweek. Owen better come out of it healthy and kicking. Hopefully. Scar-ly injured before making his debut for my beloved magpies. Next week more exciting.

Listen to James Blunt if you can. Not bad. Too much comparisons between him and Damien Rice. Not fair to either of them i feel. Both are good. I like. Try them. Good music.



I guess it's time I run far far away, find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same, It just keeps me from trouble
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words....

It's just tears and rain.


Just one question. What or who is Dorian Gray??

Just hope my results don't end up in tears and rain.
