♥ I guess this is growing up

when i learn to compromise what i believe in when others live differently.

when i realize i've become cynical about so many things.

when sarcasm is my main form of humor.

when i start to talk about all the gossip there is.

when i take stands on certain issues, and fight for them.

and even when i might be wrong i'll still fight.

cause thats what grown ups do.

I don't want to be like that.

I've never wanted to be like that.

But i see in so many parts of my life i'm morphing into that.

I need to gain back the strength i had to stand up again for what i believe in.

I need to remember why i believed in those people and not lose sight of the reason why.

I need to return to being optimistic, remembering that not all hope is gone.

I need to stop blabbering about things i shouldn't. control.

I need to realize when i'm wrong and accept it.

BUT ITS DAMN HARD LA.

): i guess this is growing up.

i guess this is growing up.

But i thank God for the life he has given me thus far. yet ahead there is so much more that I've yet to discover and see, and i'm glad that right now i've got friends who would go and venture with me.

♥ Me gusta como eres; j'aime comme tu es

Wow, this song is damn nice. the guy's got some chinese tats! haha!

♥ in midnights, in cups of coffee

I miss how we used to sit around in school, sing and just come up with parts.

I loved how we sat in the canteen with frozen jelly and frozen milo and ran away from Mrs Yogee but now we're all far away and dreadfully separated by dozens of miles, and all that rings in my head is the songs that we used to sing together. even the hard ones like mamoru, and i remember how we looked up to our seniors and worshiped them. i remember how we had to start to overcome all the politics when we got to sec 4 and gossip. i remember how we enjoyed every single second of our concerts. we couldn't tear ourselves away from our performance nights. it was everything to us. even if we made a fool of ourselves, even as we tried out making the really long rhythm section with the mops and stuff, with the traffic cones, and how we all played an instrument on stage and i loved how we got to dance, we got to sing and we sang non-stop. i loved it when we shared strepsils and complain about how they just don't work, and i remember all the times we talked about singing with our back voice and using our intercostal muscles and yeah, mr gani and mr choy with his astro boy shirt. and laughing at the guys at the festival of choirs, and singing with the awesome pitch perfect people there.

it sucks that i have to do stats now. while i listen to seasons of love.

i miss those times. i really do. alex and rachelseet, charlene and rachelkoh i miss you all alot!

reminiscing../

ah, fun times.

♥ nanananana

Alas, the weekend is here.

I've been looking forward to this weekend, and i'm so glad it has finally come. this week was a crazy week, i felt oh so stressed and nothing seemed to go right. well, yeah. i made it through anyway, without much catastrophic effect on my future ahead. i guess i'm going to be alright. right now i'm sitting in the library again, but because i came to join merrie, yilin, rachel, stacey here for awhile before i head off to lunch. i just did my virtual fly lab, so i feel good. nananana!

its been pretty crazy though last night it was pretty fun at Genie's birthday party, got to hang with phebe and bec and katherine and stuff, it was pretty cool i guess! haha! and got to know a few CMG people cause well, aside from phebe, bec katherine and i, everyone else was like cmg or ctg people. haha! but it was cool anyway. (: Happy Birthday to Genie! my physics prac partner. what would i do without her man!? haha!

anyway, after that i went to hang with chris for abit. omgosh, he was like sitting in the cold,... studying. omg, so sad la! plus it was wet and stuff cause it rained earlier, zomgosh. haha! but anyway went inside and he studied while i used my unimelb quota to watch HEADING TO THE GROUND. KOREAN DRAMA. WHOO! HAVENT WATCHED A KDRAMA IN AGES. been watching too much greys anatomy, its finally time to catch up on all the DRAMA i've been missing whilst i was in a world full of CT scans, MRI scans, Neuro ops and Melanomas and 007 and alot alot alot of BLOOD. yeah, that basically summed up how awesome greys is. haha!

♥ bright yellow sunshine nails.

if the elephant...
flies above me, drifting
and floating in the clear blue sky
i'm left with literally nothing,
all but a shadow,
yes, all but a dark grim outline-
of an elephant ass print. ):
-boo.

'twas a super tiring day. ):
i shall not sulk, because i believe tomorrow will be a better day ahead of me. i'm so preoccupied lately, i can't see the big picture. i need to see the big picture. i must look at whats ahead and really look at the big picture. think big. i can't keep worrying too much about all my small minute problems. what is one day's problem going to be like when i turn old? it'll seem as if it was a split second. when eternity ensues, what is this day going to be like? a milisecond? or maybe the SI unit becomes a year or a thousand years. or what, in eternities. if that's possible. maybe it is.

yes, i'm thinking outside of the box. its not the big picture, but i've yet to see where i fit in too. will a person ever fit into the big picture? maybe its a motion picture. dang. i'm becoming lamer and lamer.

last night i read a simple psalm, and i wonder how such timeless literature can speak to me, a person of the 21st century. its amazing, isn't it? timeless man, really timeless.

♥ You Me at Six- Kiss And Tell

i heard the first 30 seconds of the song and i fell in love with it instantly.
love at first... listen?!?!

ITS SO BLOODY AWESOME.
YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO THEIR MUSIC!
ITS PLAYING NOW. (:

i realised i really have a thing for brit pop boy bands.

You Me at Six- Kiss and Tell

You're so good and you're so bad
and everybody wants to be your man
Your so good and your so bad
and everybody wants to be
in your hair and under your skin
and in those clothes
and on those lips
But me

Chorus
Kiss and tell, everybody else
and you're at your best
when I'm making, making baby steps

You make the rules up as you go
So I've gotta make some of my own
You make the rules up as you go
so I'm gonna send your love home
What did you expect from me?
I said there's so much more that you won't see.
What did you expect from me?
I said I'm smarter than him you see.

Kiss and tell, everybody else
and you're at your best,
when I'm making,
baby steps,
and I'm sick and tired of bein' the good guy.
And I've done my time,
you should hit the back of the line

I know, you don't need to tell me (12x)
I know, you don't, I know, you don't
Need to tell me, tell me
I know, you don't, I know, you don't
Need to tell me, tell me.

Kiss and tell
Everybody else
and you're at your best
when I'm making
baby steps
and I'm sick and tired
of bein' the good guy
And I've done my time
you should hit the back of the line

OH THE PRESSURE!!! P=(nRT)/V

The sky's so dark and cloudy, its a rather gloomy day. Stuck at home, nice and fuzzy, warm and comfy, i don't want to do a single thing. I'm here just wasting my time. I really need to start doing my work. Sometimes i wonder what i'm doing, why i'm doing things a certain way. i know when i first start out doing it, but after awhile i question myself and go.. huh?! sometimes i really confuse myself. i bet i'm confusing you now. while you use your inference skills and try to figure out what i'm trying to say. while i'm leaving vague clues and leave you in such a fuss and mess you really don't understand what i'm saying right? cause the point is that i don't even understand what i'm saying either. i'm blabbing again. i'm always doing that. making myself confused, forgetting what i'm meant to do, what i should do what i'm supposed to be doing. maybe i should go to gloria jeans and get work done. and forget about this confusion again. omg i'm driving myself crazy. maybe its the pressure, or maybe because my fb was phished, maybe because i didnt get a good sleep last night, maybe because i am just lazy why am i even continuing to blab on and on, i tell you maybe its khalil fong's song, its stuck in my head. its a singalong song thats not too long cause when i think about you i hear songs baby i wrote this, i wrote this for you. omg i'm actually typing out the lyrics that i hear. what am i doing. why am i doing this. omg, i can't believe you are reading this. haha! its so crappy its a whole chunk of crap, its like how some really bored people went to twitter and assessed how much crap gets on that thing. maybe thats why i like twitter. its space to crap. i need space to ramble, i need to stop here too. okay okay i shall stop. ahhh i can't. i need to stop. okay. i'll make myself a nice hot chocolate and then i'll head out to study later.

♥ The sun's out, its time to play- just for a day.

Went to Yarra Bend yesterday with my housechurch! Chrys isn't part of our housechurch but she came along too, glad to have her there with us though! (: haha cool. OMG I HAD THE CRAZIEST DAY YESTERDAY, I WAS SOOO CLUTZY. I KNOW, I KNOW. GO AHEAD, START LAUGHING NOW. ITS ALRIGHT, ITS OKAY. I CAN TAKE IT. :( HAHA! OMG, i almost forgot, we canoed too! HAHA or kayaked. welll... BOATED. haha! there were 3 people per "boat" or sampan. HAHA we rowed up and down the river and we crashed into a tree. HAHA LOL. funny story man. i can't write it out on my blog, i have to say it out in real life. HAHA, really. zomgosh man. haha ian, julian and chrys chased after the ducks and crashed into everyone, asher and lawrence were so good! haha chrys, myself and kel were slow and steady. haha! anyway, THANKS KEL FOR ORGANIZING! (: (: (: it was awesomeeee. haha

anyway yes! so we went out to play, lay on the grass, chilled, played soccer, stepped into this brown puddle, ewww. stagnant for like a day or two. eww. but anyway. weather was so awesome, considering the past week it was COLD AND RAINY, SOOO DEPRESSRING, THERE WAS HAIL LAST WEEK TOO. ZOMG. and then we had like a picnic kinda thing, and played more soccer, slept on the grass, whoa, so nice man.

Ian found a large twig thing, or rather, he found his own moses staff. We wanted him to go down to the river and stick it into the water and take a picture. omgosh, it'd be soo cool. and hope the water turns red. ("- water red") LOL.

there were like geese there too. haha ducks too. could play real duck duck goose. haha!

"Basking" in the sun. LOL. a bunch of Asian kids in Australia... haha in the park enjoying the sun.. haha! LOL. its quite funny though. haha! XD

So, here's the thing. we played soccer, and then like, i was in my jeans. And i decided to go to the toilet, and change into my FBTS cause its so sunny and warm. and soccer, nah, i don't wanna be wearing real sweat pants. eew. so i went to the toilet, being careful not to kill any bees on the way there by stepping on flower patches, and when i got to the toilet,...

I DROPPED MY FBTSHORTS INTO THE TOILET BOWL.

seriously it was so stupid, i felt so stupid, it was so stupid. haha! XD can't believe it. i washed it in the sink several times, creeped out by the fact it was in a public toilet, but at least its in a park, so less people use it. but then again. its the toilet bowl. EWW. so yeah, i didn't wear it. and i had to dry it out in the sun. SERIOUSLY, ZOMG. haha but thank you ian, haha! he helped me squeeze out as much water as possible, lol. i didn't wear my fbts lol, brought it back to let it get a good wash. with soap and everything. lol.

Haha, yes, so that's the story about my life.
only for yesterday though. muahaha. XD

♥ where cellulite dreams are made

At the state library right now working on my statistics assignment.

Lately i've been pretty busy. but this week i'm gonna take things slow and really start to kick into the semester blues of studying again. I've got so many things to do! Catching up on Stats, Physics, Spanish and Genes.

OH WELL. anyway! woke up at about 9am today, amazing right. Plus it was raining outside, i was so tempted to stay in and not venture out to the library. Went pass Seasons and i called ian, he was still SLEEPING. haha! :P and then met chris and had coffee, waiting for ian to come so we can start studying. Went to Mr. Tulk for coffee. its the cafe attached to the library. zomg.

There was a fly in the sugar cup! i was just playing with the sugar thing and then suddenly a dead fly carcass emerged from underneath the sugar. ewwww. and then some other random small rock or debris thing emerged too. it was kinda sick. :S and then i had my coffee and then i accidentally spilt it after taking a sip and putting my cup down. yeah, it didnt pour it but because i didnt put it carefully onto the dish, it hit the side and i got a shock and then the force exerted from the plate was upwards, causing the coffee to SPUURRRT out of the cup and onto the table. thanks to the super absorbent tissue, i left the place without a a trace of that incident. oh and then chris found a small strand of colourless string thing in his cup of water. eww.

i concluded that we should order take away. we'll get clean disposable unenvironmentally friendly cups with ultra cool bubblepopthingys on the plastic caps for me to press. muahaha.

anyway i gotta get back to studying. (: Ian's so hardworking.

♥ TGIF

its raining outside. and i'm stuck on the inside. picture taken at bimbos last night! (: 4bucks per pizza! haha! went to visit Shin! (: it was so crowded, we finally found a table with 3 chairs. haha! anyway. the picture's a really bad quality. it was super duper dark, i had to set a high iso. so it caused it to get all pixellyish. haha! okay anyway. gotta go. my stomach beckons. growl.

♥ 1+1=?

Working on my statistics assignment right now. The weather today is cold, again. ): it feels as if spring hadn't come at all, as if last week's warmth was so far away. It feels cold, again. oh so cold i feel like snuggling up in my blanket, shy away from the world outside my room and just... sleep. yo tengo frio.

The last few days have been pretty busy. Alot of Dota and buzzing around church and stuff for the relationshipconference. haha! oh and i went to check out Charles' Performance on wednesday night and he won! so cool! i loved the whole altosax and trombones and stuff. omg, fell in love with the whole thing. one day i shall sing with all that jazz! HAHA! well, it was so awesome. i still can't rub off the chop completely off my arm. haha!

Its the mid semester holidays and i'm doing my stats assignment. ):
Its the mid semester holidays and i'm thinking about life. (:
Its the mid semester holidays and i'm halfway through it already. ):
Its the mid semester holidays and i'm glad i have this time out. (:
Its the mid semester holidays and i'm still forming sentences.
Its the mid semester holidays and i'm still trying to think of more sentences.
