a day saturday
well.. someone has been complaining that i don't update often enough.. which is partially why i'm here. i think his name starts with an e.. haha. anyway.. the highlight this week was darren and lijia's wedding. if there's a few couples i look to for example.. thats one of em. and i'm sure a lot others would agree.
right after the wedding ceremony.. we went town to look at watches. THE WHOLE DAY. well almost. (esmond wants a tag heuer.. so if you want to make him a happy man.. you get the idea) considering that we were smartly dressed for once.. we took the chance of walking into really exclusive boutiques. never before have i walked around town that much. my legs were like lead and painful. not to mention that i was wearing really uncomfortable aldo shoes. then after which we went to orchard hotel to crash darren's wedding dinner!!!
its official...
I AM A WEDDING CRASHER
haha.. really. i always though that it was a crazy and punky thing to do. but somehow.. i became one yesterday. happened real fast. but they didnt mind i guess.. considering that they tried pulling us in.
and.. addy's now my fashion consultant!! haha! highly amused by the thought of that. apparently she's sick and tired of dressing up girls. so she wants to try working on a guy. i didn't mind actually.. considering that she garuanteed a 'spankingly stunning' end result. haha. we shall see.
i need to study now. both the bible and my books. elder dan foo said something that kinda made an impact. 'if you don't know the Word well enough.. you're not spiritually mature at all..' come to think about it.. my bible knowledge is merely basic. sad.
and before i go.. i just want to say.
andre!!! you da man!! ;)

daddy taught me that things change
the moon tonight. beautiful. not exactly perfect. but beautiful never meant perfection.
my dad told me in the car today something that kinda struck me. he said that long ago.. way before technology and flying to space stuff... the stars and moon out there were a lot more beautiful to people who ponder upon them. that makes a lot of sense.. because if not for all those scientific breakthrough.. wouldn't the night sky be something magical and mysterious to us? haha. but now.. we know that its a piece of big rock and all. so here's an advice.. the next time you look up.. forget all the facts you know and think about magic. not any magic.. but God's magic.
and today.. it happened again. my life's mystery. just why oh why is it when i fall asleep in the bus on the way home.. i ALWAYS end up missing my stop when i wake up? not only that.. the peculiar thing is that its ALWAYS just after i miss my stop. it happens without fail. i can blast alter bridge and sex pistols down my ears and still fall asleep. and before i know it.. i'll be rushing down the bus to take another long walk home. haha..
and i just remembered five seconds ago that there's parent-teacher meeting tmr. wonderful.

here's to those who tried
a poem penned by a friend.
A Butter bottle with the Bear
bearing hearts which comes in pair.
A symbol of my affection to Pear
but now the heart is for her to shair.
Readers of the vast in darkness,
please do not use me to tease her,
My feelings for her are true and earnest
hence would truly pain to see her hurtThe Heart of colors blue and red
are now the symbols of her love so great
Hope for one to decend upon ur path
For he will have her better halfAs i await this coming Fall
bearing the date the square of four
september, a month of my very birth
and i ll be wishing for her very lovewell.. this friend.. i shall not name. but i have to say that he is one guy whom i salute. people say he's too nerdy.. too weird.. no chance with her and blah and blah. but i say he's got courage and perseverence. too bad not many see it. thats still ok. worse is that the one he's after despises him as much without even trying to known him better. its really sad how some pple think that the only other half worthy enough is someone of looks and fame. overlooking in life doesnt quite help does it? anyway.. ever since that day.. i thought that my friend would be a broken man. but instead.. he's going to try again. God bless him.

with a guitar on my back
oh no oh no... i've suddenly got a crazy idea. you know.. today was my first driving lesson in the driving sch. and i was thinking.. since each time you go for a lesson and you get a diff instructor, then wouldn't get to meet almost every single instructor by the time you end? and each lesson.. you sit in the car with no music (!!) for 1hr and 40 mins with the instructor. that's a perfect scenario for spreading the Love of God! who knows.. maybe saving the entire driving school might seem like a somewhat possible thing! o well.. but easier said than done. as applies to every other dream that we pursue.
talking about driving. i am extremely determined to finish all my lessons by next month and hopefully pass the same test in sept that evelyn is going to take. haha.. then she won't get a chance to laugh at me. childish i know.
i saw this picture of the person with the guitar on the back staring out to the horizon and it struck me big time. which is why i had to use it for the layout. i have no idea why but it reminds me of something or someone. argh.. i cant seem to fathom it but i am very sure it reminds me of something. the guitar, the hair the fields and all. something. so i'll stick to this till the day i know what it reminds me of.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AH MA!
my ah ma is old but still as happy as ever. God bless her.
and finally.. half a year after my weakling wedge broke.. i've finally got a 588 gunmetal cleveland wedge. happy thing. if anyone interested, you can go to the pro shop in lot10 in malacca. everything is 50 percent off.
everything. cant ask for more seriously.

haha.. and guess what? my dad just told me that britney spears is black. hahaha. well.. honest mistake for someone who cant tell the different between sclub 7 and hi 5.
and once again.. foo fighters releases another smashing album (In Your Honor) to rock the music world again. please get the album and watch the video. its really nice. it kinda reminds me of hope somehow.

medical hiccup
i just had my medical checkup today. it was a gruelling 5 hours long! eye test, iq test.. you name it. never before have i been through so many tests in one time. anyway.. i saw loads of old friends and classmates. pretty cool and nostalgic. i actually saw a primary 3 classmate and remembered him. not bad memory there i must say. but somehow.. it kinda felt weird.. because after all these years you finally meet your old friends.. not for some reunion.. but to sign up to fight war together.. haha.. really weird.
anyway.. talking about medical checkup.. the doctor stubbornly gave me a pes A. even after my dad made me give all past documents of my asthma and injuries and all. man.. i haven't told my dad yet. don't think he'll like it. but somehow.. i'm pretty ok with it. don't mind being some officer like what officer esmond loon is going to be. ;) haha
school just started and the going gets tough again. i think i got a dumb b again for physics. it's like a forever-stuck-at-b-subject. shows that i need to work harder. dont know about the rest. but apprehension's definitely hanging in the air. i think i need prayer as much as everyone else i know who are facing the big A's. so i've decided to set aside 10 mins everyday to pray for those taking it. and i'm blogging it to prac accoutability. so do ask me if i've done so anytime.

take whats yours.. not mine
yesterday wasn't kind to me.
today didn't try to console me.
sigh.. my handphone. taken. stolen. gone. non-existent. poof.
was hoping the whole day that the person who took it would just have the heart to return it. kept hoping and hoping. all my contacts are now gone. together with the 256mb memory card that had my fave songs in it. anyway.. if i know you and you know me.. could you please email me your contact. my number's still the same though. thanks.
and i lost esther's bdae. sorry esther. will get you a belated one.
i've been thinking.. maybe all this is a lesson from God. maybe i've been too dependent on my handphone. even more than on God. to such a point that i had to have a wake up call. i mean.. almost all of us would have hunger pangs the whole day when we forget to bring it. have to agree do you? pretty scary too see how much we actually NEED technology. you know.. i've been thinking.. maybe everyone should try to not touch their phones for one whole day. just take up the challenge for one day. haha... just a curious thought.
learnt a new word today. :)
Commiserate - to feel or show sympathy for someone who is unhappy or in difficulty
so.. does anyone commiserate with me? haha.. retarded.
checkouts for the moment..
my chemical romance - helena
foo fighters - best of you
james blunt - you're beautiful
papa roach - scars
