Finding my neverland.@1/27/2005 05:38:00 PM

oh yay! peter's wonderful tale is coming back. i can't resist.

Finding Neverland, based on a novel, "The Man Who Was Peter Pan", by Allan Knee, is a touching tale of finding your imagination.

My imagination is marrying Peter Pan, for he enchants and enthrills me.
I wanna know how to fly. I wanna be the one he dances with in the wind. He's soooo totally awesome. He rocks my world. oooooh la la. I can't wait to hear more about him in finding neverland.


johnny depp and freddie highmore.

oh wells. i know he doesn't exist to you, but he does to me. He's my peter pan!
"Unless you become like little children, you can't see God's kingdom."
with just that little faith, i'll be able to flyyyy!
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Can you turn any direction without seeing one?@1/26/2005 03:59:00 PM

Perched atop a chapel.
Craved into a graveyard headstone.
Engraved into a ring.
Suspended onto a chain.

symbolising hope.
an instrument of execution.
The cross,
lies my dreams.

Would you ever kill your daughter for a ransom of someone?

Would you ever love someone so much that you can give up everything that you have?

oh well. if you do. maybe that's why love is blind. or perhaps a little myopic.

Ever wondered why the cross symbolises hope?
when a cross is an instrument of execution.

Imagine an electric chair around your neck? super funny laa.

One beam horizontal, the other vertical.
One reaches out like God’s love. The other reaches up as does Gods holiness. One represents the width of his love, the other reflects the height of his holiness. The cross is the intersection of both. The cross is where God forgave his children without lowering his standard.

Why? because He loves me. and you, you, you.. and all of yooooou!

the cross.

die another day@1/22/2005 01:16:00 PM

my eyelids cant wait to meet each other
my leg muscles are cramped
my back is aching badly
my stomach is having cramps laa.
and i'm having diahorrea.
what a wonderful day!

oh yes, it is. cuz God saved me from dying. As i was in pain, all i wanted to do was get home. After camp, i grab my stuff, walking steadily to the gate. There was no empty cabs. boo! then I couldn't tahan anymore, i just sat on the roadside. Then i was a mercedes cab. wheeeee! it stopped across the road. totally excited laa. so i just dash across the road. Without checking for safety, a white car started horning at me from a distance of 20cm from my leg. crap!It was right in front of me. i started screaming. i'm totally frightened and shocked and i dunno. i'm just thankful i'm alive.

shock mode till now....

After, i'm safe and i'm home. and thank you God for saving me and providing me with a mercedes cab.
I could have just died talking to you halfway on the phone.

moral of the story: In suffering, take safety precautions.

'have you bought your new year clothes?' seems to be the hot question to start a conversation. well, i haven't had enough time to chill out since. rawrs! but i bought my dress already. a preety cool one that is unique in the world. specially made by a local fashion designer. yeps. oooh, does that mean i'm faster than you. you. you?

Steamboat a CNY tradition, for you? well, it is for me. but this year, there wouldn't be any steamboat. Due to the tsunami waves, there has been a warning to stay away from seafood. Oh well, no prawns. blah. I guess the closest you get to seafood would be ermmm... fishball?

Jesus, I love yoooooooooooou@1/15/2005 11:14:00 AM

Dear GOD:

I want to thank You for what you have already done.

I am not going to wait until I see results or receive rewards,
I am thanking you right now.

I am not going to wait until I feel better or things look better,
I am thanking you right now

I am not going to wait until people say they are sorry or untilthey stop talking about me,
I am thanking you right now.

I am not going to wait until the pain in my body disappears,
I am thanking you right now.

I am not going to wait until my financial situation improves,
I am going to thank you right now.

I am not going to wait until I get promoted at work or until I get the job.
I am going to thank you right now.

I am not going to wait until I understand every experience in my life that has caused me pain or grief,
I am going to thank you right now.

I am not going to wait until the journey gets easier orthe challenges are removed,I am thanking you right now.

I am thanking you because I am alive.
I am thanking you because I made it through the day's difficulties.
I am thanking you because I have walked around the obstacles.
I am thanking you because I have the ability and the opportunity to do more and do better.
I'm thanking you because, FATHER, YOU haven't given up on me.

There is so much in life that we should be thankful for. Yet most of the time, we focus on our problems and sorrows. We tend to be envious of the things we don't have. We complain about the stuff which makes our life miserable.

For a change, let us focus on the blessings, even the little ones, we have in our life: the gift of life, family, friends, good health, daily provision, a good chat with a friend, a friendly smile from a stranger and even the trials and problems we encounter day to day - because of them we become stronger and wiser. At this moment, think of something which you're grateful for, smile a little and say thanks.
[Thank You for the unconditional love You have for me. (^.^)]

there are two kinds of sad people.

1) people who choose to feel sad.
2)people who cant help but be sad.

i am none other than the latter. I don't wanna be be sad but i just can't help it. today's a really bad day on the roads. i hate it hate it. never in my life have i been so sway. but i guess, if it wasn't this bad, it wouldn't have woken me up. i miss you.

Choose to Feel@1/13/2005 10:57:00 PM

how was my day? you may ask. it was good it seems. was made class rep by Dr. arnold tan. funny how i think he doesn't know well or rather don't know me at all till my 1st lesson of global M. anyhow, lecture note are pretty expensive especially a short term of 9 weeks. like what Mr DaSilva said, before we can seat down, we gotta get up already. okay.. let's do some maths.

9 weeks - term test - study week - CNY - 2nd week - presentation week = 3 weeks. rawrs!

that's exactly the time left to finish 4 major, 5 individual reports. well, i'm not complaining. i'm thankful for having a united, fun , hungry yet hardworking groupies for a change. However, i hope it stays this way and focus focus everyone, we will get thru this without much quarrelling ayy. Gab commented something interesting, he thought i was cool, but maybe he thought wrong that i was a nerd. bleah. that happen when i took out my notes. urrmmmm. hellloOoo. you can be cool, hardworking and smart right?? hahaha

went for SL interview already, . quite excited about it, knowing i'll still be contributing to TP after graduating. wheee. oh btw, have you heard the latest news that Greoffrey Da Silva + phillip kotler's marketing textbook is coming to stores soon. whoa. i bet my dad would be the 1st in line.

saw ah tan.. haha. i think you look quite nice with your new hairstyle.

had lunch, sorta. the hashbrown and cheese was fantastic and oooh i'm craving for jupiter's salad. yepps. remind me to have it for lunch tmr. no i'm not on a diet. i just wanna have it. no one can stop me now.. yum yum! decided to go for training after all the hussle, moreover, i drove so being smelly wasn't a problem. coach said i seem troubled. sometimes it hard to untie the many knots that lie in the brain that connects to the soul and heart. Maybe it was a signal that i am troubled just that i couldn't figure it out myself. maybe i chose not to feel.

Many things has happen to my bro. looking back, i think SIP changed me like what Geoff said. I'm not as excited about sportsclub anymore. I'm just looking forward to my DHL this year and that means working hard for the next 3 months and up. maybe i should just quit? but coach says i am not a quitter. what to do? what to do? if only i had op to go into bsc and not sc. if only i didn't have the opportunity to join sc. if only i had considered the pros and cons and not get cheated by some marketing slogan. eeeek. kok my head please, someone. kk, i need my salad.
oh after typing so much, i know why i look stress already. haha. because i was fighting mind over body to run the 1.6km part-leg. brain so tired, legs so tired, stitch laa, feel like burping but cannot burp, felt like puking laa. all sorts of excuses. ugh. but i did it and well, it was fulfilling.
choosing to deaden bad feelings eventually deadens our ability to feel good.

Total Knee Replacement.@1/12/2005 05:37:00 PM

esp for those with knees that hurt.

read an article 'ALmost as good as knee-w' earlier about a 70 year old lady who recovered 1 month after her surgery. Knee surgery to be exact. It relieved her of the excruciating knee pain.

For the norm, surgery includes removing of the ends of the thigh bone & shin bone & often the underside of the kneecap too. This would need 15 stitches/staples.

But for her, the surgeon avoid touching the quadricep. As a result, it made the healing process much faster.

Only 8 days of hospitalisation.
1 month of use of walking stick
However, artificial knees can only last till about 10 months.

Tip: if you decide to have knee replacement surgery, do so when other parts are still strong and working well.

no matter what. after the 10 years, i wouldn't know what happens but i'll be here.

lime green obsession part I@1/11/2005 11:52:00 AM

my lime green obsession for today would be my lil' croc




that cass and geri bought me on my bday'04. It has been with my thru' half the year of 2004. My fav. companion during my attachment. When I was mad, it became my stress ball. When i was busy typing, it became my wrist couch. When i was cranky, it became a scaring other colleagues toy. haha. It was fun ahving it around. However, it was passed away. sob* recently. And currently, it has become leslie's obsession.

fixation@1/09/2005 11:17:00 AM

everything changes but nothing changes.
i think i'm suffering a post syndrome of idyll.
with a linear of spots forming across my face.
no dumb diet. no surgery. no pain.
maybe its just me and my idiosyncrasy.
that misses the pure and simple
when it was summer 2004.
even before the day of departure came.
for us to put aside the comfort zone
reach out to the fearsome world out there
i wished you only knew.
the reason why things don't seem the same anymore
i thought it would be easy
but i'm not growing as fast as i could
this place is so empty
i think i've got my answers in my dream
wait oct 2006.

be inspired.

Ever thought why some people are too busy?

Or maybe having too much time to spare?

Every wondered why some people has left the blogging world..

for an alternative of using a notebook. I'm a little disturbed by you. you who adds spice on my blog.
spice that are simply too hot for the tongues that wag.

Many times it causes hurt and pricks the confidence. But why should i care about who you are and why in the world you're doing this. you irritant.

At least i'm fortunate to have friends that are ain't like you. For friends tell much of what you really are. And you know who you are and guess what? ugh. you stink.

reminiscence of 4.1@1/04/2005 09:09:00 PM

looking at all the recent photos of my angele, nicole, karmene, lijun and the recent party with randi, shelina, esther, jac, leah, jacquine, pam, racheal ee brings back fond memories of sec 4.1. and oh, guess what? i met mrs leong a few weeks back and she still remembers me and my name. i was so amazed by that.

Now that its the start of a new year, 05, i sure hope we stay in touch. Everyone of you has grown into a beauty that none can conceive. But good thing everyone still recognise everyone else. haha. There should be a meet up bbq soon at the condo at paya lebar. same place, some time in may/june. let's party everyone, alright?



As we left our separate ways
After all our troubled days
striving for our diplomas and A levels.
We'll miss the good times.
when everything changes
Everyone changes
Many faces that seeks much of life
Many with one turn back.
the turn back that leaves footprints
in the rain
bringing smiles to the many faces of 4.1, 2001.

it's no stinking monday for me..
had a welcome back lecture of IMC by jeffrey ho, with the uplifting smile of his and his interesting advertisements that always end up filling the lt with an uproar of laughter.

After that, i went to lido to catch Phantom of the Opera. And i met angeline, one of the twin. should be angeline i think. haha. Phantom's quite a nice show to watch. I like the masquerque dance. pretty cool. maybe i should have a mask potluck party some time in march. heex. or maybe dip in marketing grad dinner would be fine dinning with masks. oooh. think romeo and juliet. However, i found the play a little scary because of the presence of phantom that appears almost in every scene. His voice is scary enough. eeeek. But it's a recommended to watch show. I rate it ****. Tips: to enjoy it better, dress like your watching a play.

At 7, had dinner at 'bao'ger. a new experience for having meat patti and lettuce in a steamed kong bah bao. It's a cross-cultural concept with a unique taste to it. Oh guess what? scott's has a new esprit store. wheeeeeee!

Walking down towards mariott, we stopped by haagen daaz for a cheap trill of fondue.


ice cream parteeee.


yummilicious cookies and creme ice cream fondue..

see, i told you. monday, isn't such a stinky day.

sleep sleep sleep.

i slept practically the whole day. yawns. just read an article about 12 questions. it's stunningly interesting. it speaks about when people are angry/upset, do you happen to take it inwardly, thinking that maybe they're feeling that way because of you? oh wells. i do. and most oftenly, it kills. so why kill yourself when all it is, is doubts. Thus, think of 12 senarios of which may be the reason of them feeling the way they do. And then there would be freedom and an expansion of thoughts. It could be a way of turning undesirable circumstances to a desirable outcome. 12 what else.

have you made your new year resolutions yet?


{.Your love is extravagant.}


welcome

As i sit here and think about all that You've done
About how You gave me Your One and only Son
And I'm trying to fathom all that You are, but so far,
Lord, You're so beyond me
And i fall down in reverence and i fall down in fear
And i'm asking You, Lord, won't You please draw near
Won't You open my eyes so that i can see
The way that You are working in me
chorus:
All i need is Your love
To come and fill this heart of mine
My heart is a desert that has gone dry
And i need Your love to carry me by

So i lay down my life and i put it before You
All i put all that i have in Your hands
And i'm not going to question, why You're so faithful
Why that You give me the blessing that You do
Let the glory be known, let the glory be shown
Lift You up unto the throne

By,by,by,by
To carry me by, by, by, by, by
To carry me by
