Thanks all my beloved friends for the concern..... Everything good already...... :)

Chinese New Year kinda nice........ Still pretty much the same as every other year except for the visiting of Nat's aunt....... Its pretty cool and i thought its really a very good effort to liven up the mood once again......

We sang New Year songs led by the choir sisters of Natalie and Nerizza...... Lol....... Followed by the "Human Jackpot" and "Bingo"........ Arrrrggghhhhh....... "Good things come in three"..... Gosh..... How true is this saying....... This little kiddo won three times straight on the jackpot and won around 150++....... Then this guy won the "Bingo" three times straight and took away around 200 odd of cash and also lands with the third prize of the lucky draw...... Urgh.....

Ate a 6-8 course dinner followed by the lion dance....... Woooottt........ Im impressed........

"Kafka On The Shore" coming pretty soon....... Looking forward to it........

Show and Tell should be ok...... I have a pretty good planning committee...... :)

Its already week 5....... Gosh....... 10 more weeks to summer........ Scary how time flies......

Cheerios peepz......

Listening to the songs of Coldplay,
Its almost like the clock rewinds,
Headphones attached on,
Back to the times of Exel,

Beeps comes the phone,
Enthusiastically knowing who,
Pops up the name of "Natalie",
Oh Fuck..... I cant go on.

Tears dripping down my "Kling",
Terms we share,
Only you and I,
Oh Fuck...... It really hurts.

Keyboard soak with tears,
How to take away,
The tears and the pain,
Inflict upon myself.

Fickle?
Indecisive?
God, Am I doing it right?

Tossing and turning...... Bahhh...... Not the stingray on the grill but rather the state of which im in last night....... I flipped around for at least 2 hours even though im tired but just couldnt shut off my brain......

The legacy of Ah Gong really exemplified in me hur hur...... Am I so hard to be kept satisfied??
Maybe...... Am I always picking bones?? Maybe....... Since the third or fourth leg on, it has always been me....... Roles reversal it seems.......

My behaviour justifiable?? It seems to be...... On hind sight, it may not seems to be......
Sigh..... Anyway, Ive passed it......

Ephesians 4:32

Its two way yeah....... So talk about it...... Discuss any misunderstanding...... Not happening hur hur..... Because I can only see the "Head" of the coin...... The "Tail" always remain silence..... "Tail" mantra's resembled that of the motto of specialist school...... "Suffer In Silence"...... Or sometimes just avoiding to discuss any issue.......

I resent the idea of making anyone suffer...... Let alone in silence....... It upsets me.......

Finished "Kite Runner".......... Wooooott....... A great read....... The story of Amir and Hassan...... Its written in a powerful way where you get drawn to the character and feel for them....... Especially the part when Hassan ran that blue kite for Amir and was trapped by Assef....... I really boiled...... Cowardice....... *Spat*

I liked the part when Baba explained the greatest sin...... Its really meaningful......

Overall, its really a great read..... Go get it...... :>

9/10......

Started "Saving Faith" by David Baldacci....... Its the first time that i am reading his work...... And expecting a great time...... It better be good........

Im drooling for "Kakfa On The Shore" and "Never Let Me Go".......

The facilitating session was ok....... Andy kinda fell short of my expectation..... Lol...... Not as friendly as Jiahuan descibed........ But he's still kinda ok.......

The girls in Cedar are really enthusiastic....... Im impressed....... :)

Flocks of birds,
Flying in unison and tandem,
Peace precedes all,
Harmony rules over,
Soar below none,

Sooner than later,
One became two,
Ruffled feathers shown,
Resentment,
Political and strife,

One asserting,
One retracting,
Directions drift,
One for the pinnacle,
The other with the wind.

Pardon if you do not understand the entry....... Its all metaphors and incoherent....... Its just what something that happened......

I got to know something today and it filled me with angst and anger......... What can be so simple could also be something so alien to fathom........

Im utterly disgusted....... Totally........

Anyway, theres something nice that happened as well...... In fact, it could be a shot at life for me........ The first towards an empire.......

Cheerios........

- Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing-

Come, thou fount of every blessing,
tune my heart to sing thy grace;
streams of mercy, never ceasing,
call for songs of loudest praise.

Teach me some melodious sonnet,
sung by flaming tongues above;
praise the mount!
I’m fixed upon it, mount of God’s unchanging love.

Here I raise my Ebenezer;
hither by thy help I’m come;
and I hope, by thy good pleasure,
safely to arrive at home.

Jesus sought me when a stranger,
wand’ring from the fold of God:
he, to rescue me from danger,
interposed his precious blood.

O to grace how great a debtor daily
I’m constrained to be;
let that grace now,
like a fetter, bind my wand’ring heart to thee.

Prone to wander—Lord,
I feel it—prone to leave the God I love:
here’s my heart,
O take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above.

Wheeeee......

Had a good lunch over at "Tao" with Nat, Chloe and Tim...... I must admit the service really awesome over there.......

• They actually inform Chloe that it was raining and advised her to bring an umbrella
• They offered Nat newspaper when they thought she was alone
• They saw Nat stopped eating the salad platter and actually asked whether she wanted a swap for something else even when the dish is eaten halfway
• They wanted to help me heat up my soup when they noticed that my soup was left untouch for a while as im busy sampling other yummy dishes

The only sucky part is that they have no toilets...... Anyway, the food kinda yummy and the service awesome...... What else can i say.......

The restaurant over at Paradiz Centre beside Subway...... Lunch is around 20++ and dinner's at 25++....... SMU students get some discount..... The bill came up $28.70 per pax for a 7 course lunch(Charged at dinner price as its public holiday)....... *Slurps*

Afterwhich, we went to Suntec for some undies shopping...... I meant for Chloe and Nat while Tim and I stood around and chat...... Kekeke......

Leave me high and dry after a day of shopping...... Was dead tired as i stayed up watching "Lost" the night before........

Some real hot and great stuff happened in the early evening...... Wooooottt....... Some dance performances, literature discussions, soothing music to the ears....... POWER...... :p

Almost halfway through "Prey"...... Its not happening yet hur hur..... Kinda dry...... But i guess the good part coming soon enough......

I have been actively searching for places that sell cheap books..... Nat's offered a channel through internet purchasing...... Certainly cheap enough but the book's condition may not reach my expectations...... I will still seek Nat's help since its her forte nowadays..... kekeke..... :P

"Bras Brasah" came up from google following my search strings...... *Knocks my own head*
Should have thought of it when i need cheap books....... BAH......

Reading is not cheap first hand...... 16 bucks a book and about 3 books a month..... Do the math..... 48 bucks off my allowance every month...... Urrgghhh....... Lucky that my reading speed rather slow...... If i had Nat's, ill be broke faster than you say "rayisdirtpoor".......

Titles on my hit list;

"Sphere" by Michael Crichton
"Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini
"The Enemy" by Lee Child
"Mary Mary" by James Patterson

Wanna try novels by Dean Koontz..... Heard some rave reviews......

Anyone read anything from Kazuo Ishiguro???

The supper kinda cool...... Talked about exchange, edmund's New York trip and on relationship...... Lol...... The guys had the same mindset while Anna's differs...... Had lotsa fun talking crap...... And of course the food in 85; YUMMY......

Saturday's evening spent celebrating with Corinna on her 22nd birthday...... Fun fun fun...... Had a few drinks....... The game played kinda insane....... Mixing pints of alcohol thats really potent..... Could knock out a cow upon drinking....... Anyway, Happy Birthday Corinna!!!

Went for the Sanctuary service today as i missed the P&P in the morning...... Crashed a wedding after that..... Lol..... Its really gate crashing..... I dont even know the bride nor the groom...... Im representing Nat's uncle hence the yummy dinner that i gotta eat...... Had fun playing all the orientation games with Nat's cousins...... Lol..... All in all, its not bad...... :p

Steven is a deputy commissioner...... Gosshhh..... Looks can really be deceiving......

Hsia Yang is already 33 and have two daughters...... Arrrgggghhhhh....... He really look just like an undergraduate...... I have always assumed him to be around my age...... Baaahhh..... BIG 33......

The past few days had been kinda nice...... =p

Played DOTA for the second time with Xiu Jun and Elaine on New Year Day before meeting up Nat and Lin Min for the chicken rice dinner...... Got owned...... Still unfamiliar with the game...... Lol...... Two camps on the better chicken rice stall hur hur..... Boon Tong Kee v.s Far East Chicken Rice...... The guys belong to the former while the gals the latter....... Bottomline is that both are still yummy......

Felt like bitching about an incident today but on second thought, i shall hold my peace...... Bahhh......

Fourth semester of SMU...... Hectic and hellish 15 weeks once again...... Gaaahhhh..... Chiooonnggg ahhhh...... Gotta try to sky rocket my GPA as im only handling 4 C.U......

Finished Bangkok 8....... The ending kinda weird..... I dont even know whether "weird" is the correct word to use...... Anyway, it gives me a radical view on the Thai Police..... And allows me to get nostalgic about Bangkok......

6.5/10......

Currently reading Harry Potter, The Chamber Of Secrets......

On the holding list are "Prey" by Michael Crichton and "Saving Faith" by David Baldacci......
"Saving Faith" was a bargain buy at only 5 bucks...... =)

Pastor Wendy delivered a great sermon on the epiphany Sunday...... "Driven"......

- 1 Corinthians 13 -

If I speak in the tongues of men and angels, but have not love,
I have become sounding brass or a tinkling symbol.

And if I have prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing.

And if I dole out all my goods, and if
I deliver my body that I may boast
but have not love, nothing I am profited.

Love is long suffering,
love is kind,
it is not jealous,
love does not boast,
it is not inflated.

It is not discourteous,
it is not selfish,
it is not irritable,
it does not enumerate the evil.
It does not rejoice over the wrong, but rejoices in the truth

It covers all things,
it has faith for all things,
it hopes in all things,
it endures in all things.

Love never falls in ruins;
but whether prophecies,
they will be abolished; or
tongues, they will cease; or
knowledge, it will be superseded.

For we know in part and we prophecy in part.

But when the perfect comes, the imperfect will be superseded.

When I was an infant,
I spoke as an infant,
I reckoned as an infant;

when I became [an adult],
I abolished the things of the infant.

For now we see through a mirror in an enigma, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know as also I was fully known.

But now remains faith, hope, love,
these three;

but the greatest of these is love.

- 1 Corinthians 13 -
