Farewell message to all my friends

Thursday Jul 24, 2008

Time now 3:21

In 8 hours time, I will be missing from this blog for 2 weeks..

Yep.. I’m heading to Tekong as soon as the sun rises and gathering with friends :D

For this week.. It has been very hectic for me..

So hectic to the extent I’ve fallen sick on Thursday..

To all my friends out there, I am really sorry for canceling all my appointment with you guys..

I know you guys want to go out with me one last time before I leave.. And I really appreciate the thoughts behind it!

But unfortunately, my work has been in such rushing state that I cant simply enjoy life while my project is incomplete. If I were to just put down everything and go out, all my efforts of rushing like mad for the past 3 months would come to waste.

Thus I have made a decision, not a joyful one, but a determination to complete this part of the project before I start serving my National Service.

Along with rushing my own projects, I have decided to sacrifice my night time to help Jerrome and Windez with their FYP so that they can pass. It’s the least me as a brother could do… It’s not easy for me. But finally~

After fallen sick yesterday, I believe I’m ready to hit whatever obstacles that’s coming my way in Tekong.

It’s the first time that I’ve fallen sick and unable to rest for a whole day. But I’ve had at least 2 hours of sleep today to refill my energy.

So tomorrow is going to be exciting! LoL

Ok.. time for me to sleep and I’ll be seeing you guys in 2 weeks time :)

Dont miss me and finally..

GOOD NIGHT!!


~Yesterday, today the same!

The meaning of R.S.V.P

Wednesday Jul 16, 2008

Am I the only one who doesn’t know the meaning of R.S.V.P?

After doing some easy research, I finally found out what it means..

And I bet a thousand dollars YOU who is reading this post now MAY know the meaning, but doesn’t know what does it stands for ;)

Oops.. did I hit a bulls eyes? :P

Well, dont worry! because I myself am shock by what it stands for! LoL

So what does it stands for? Without further adoo, let me quote it from the web :)

From How Stuff Works

R.S.V.P. stands for a French phrase, “répondez, s’il vous plaît,” which means “please reply.

wow~! LoL am I ready to collect the thousand dollars we bet? :)

Let me have a go at pronouncing that!!

“Respon Des Sill Voos Plait!”

How do you pronounce it? LoL

Ok.. So now we know what does R.S.V.P Stands for and how to pronounce it! Go ahead! Flaunt it to your friend and scold them Swaku :P

Ok Emo time…

9 more days and I’ll be enlisting into NS…I’m going to make full use of my 9 days and cherish it!

But Before that…

Tomorrow will be my Final Driving Theory Test(FTT) and It’s make it or break it!

Considering i’m one of the retarded ones that has already failed once and now going for my second attempt, I hope I’ll be able to pass this time!

Also, after my FTT is out of the way, I’ll be creating something boring to certain bunch of people, and fun for some..

This is alll for the sake of taking another step to realizing my dreams of being successful in life.

I’ve come to a term that this is currently a rapid age of growth where life is going to zoom past me without me even noticing it! So If i don’t do something about it, It’s going to be too late.

It’s Too late to apologize~!~!

Yeah… by then I’ll be really singing that song by One Republic..

Well, I’ll be making more announcement regarding about that soon :D


Ok.. Emo Time over..

Can you really forget someone you love?

Monday Jul 7, 2008

Today, someone ask me this question..

“how can we forget a person?”

and this cause me to think abit..

Then 2 questions came to my mind…

Can we really forget someone?

If Yes, have I really forgotten the person?

This started the whole process of pondering..

And I threaded my thoughts together, trace it backwards and forward feeling how I think about how I think and why do I think that way…

And now I shall present my findings here and explain why do I think that way…

Can we really forget someone?

Answer is NO

In fact it’s when you acknowledge the fact that you can never forget this person then, have you truly forget this person :)

Ironic? Read on!

We can never forget this person we once loved because no matter what, he or she has after all stepped into our life and left a footprint of joy and happiness in our heart.

And this Joy and happiness is something that we can never forget..

I analyzed the procedures of thinking of a person you once love and bench mark every steps. Here I go..

I remembered the person…

I remembered the life we shared together…

A feeling of nostalgicness came…

A feeling of sadness came…

A feeling of relief came…

And move on with life…

Let’s start with the first one…

I remembered the person…

ahh.. a name will ring a bell.. and this person face will appear all over your mind…

I remembered the life we shared together…

How the mind works.. when you remember a person.. what makes this person so special from another person is based on what this person has done and contribute to your life…

Thus… you would remember the things this person does…

A feeling of nostalgicness came…

The happenings are so memorable.. it brings such great taste to your mouth that you just feel like licking it and tasting it one more time.

A feeling of sadness came…

Ahh… as much as I would want to lick it and taste this great fruit once again, It’s too far out for me to reach it..

and naturally.. many people will be stuck here…

This is the step that I have track down to be the hardest to pass by… and this is also the step that started the whole discussion of

Why is it so hard to forget someone..

Many people long to taste this great fruit again.. yet knowing it’s impossible, mixture of feelings comes into place.. unexplainable desperation evolve..

Yearning for it.. YET not knowing what to do and as time past by, it reaches the stage of sigh and more heavy sigh as no more solution went through your brain.. until eventually..

Too much focus was on this issue that depression came.

Everything in the world seems dull, nothing seems as gleeful as it is anymore..

and since you think about this so much, you neglected every other part of life, and you forgot that the world is more then just what you are going through here and this is only one very small part of life, and nothing helps anymore.. and It’s up to yourself to break free from this…

Three words: can’t let go..

If only you can let go of the past and clung on to the future… this step will be a relief for you and you will proceed to the next step…

or else.. you will forever be stuck here.. and unable to go on to the next one which is :

A feeling of relief came…

Why? Simple.. it’s only when you have finally think through about the ways of optimism, BELIEVE IN IT, only then will you be able to MOVE ON and ACT towards your goal of optimism.

Then relief will come…

And move on with life…

then you will place this person aside, and continue doing whatever you are doing when you thought about this person…


And thus complete the whole cycle of truly forgetting someone.

So what does it really mean to forget someone?

In my opinion, the true definition about forgetting someone is when you remember this person, you remembered the happiness this person brings you, accept it as the past, believing in a greater future ahead waiting for you to discover, give a smile to it, and move on…

Some people might argue,

“But I’ve tried doing something else to forget this person, but after so long I suddenly felt I miss this person!”

Well, In my opinion.. you DID NOT overcome your feeling of sadness.. In fact you are still stuck there…

you merely postphoned it to do many other things all in the name of forgetting this person..

but the key is..

you are still focussing on this person!

When you are working on a solution, you are always curious to find out the result. So naturally when your mind goes through the thinking process of evaluating how doing whatever you are doing now has helped you forgotten the person and naturally the analyzing stage I’ve stated above will happen and eventually, the accumulation is too much to bear and the volcano erupted even greater then before…

So My advise to this is this .. DONT do things for the sake of forgetting someone,

but do life just the way life is.

The key: DONT FOCUS On this issue!

Ok let me clarify that what I’ve written here is purely on how I analyzed this whole episode and It’s by no means represent any other person thoughts other then myself.

Everything is debatable and nothing here is absolute.

ANd this marks the end of another analysis by Me :D

Now time for something relax…

Music Prodigy?

Thursday Jul 3, 2008

SINGAPORE: Preschoolers at a childhood education centre in Singapore were treated to a recital by visually impaired South Korean piano prodigy Yoo Ye Eun on Thursday.

The prodigy, who has never had formal piano lessons, is in Singapore at the invitation of the Young Women Muslim Association.

Six-year-old Ye Eun can play any tune after hearing it just once and she showed that talent by reproducing the folk song “Rasa Sayang” for her audience in Singapore after hearing it for the first time.

Born blind and adopted in July 2002, Ye Eun’s talent went unnoticed until she was three years old.

One day, she heard her foster mother sing a popular song which she reproduced on the piano. After appearing on YouTube and the Korean TV show “Star King”, Ye Eun quickly shot to stardom.

Her parents are now looking for a suitable teacher for the prodigy, in the hope that she would become an accomplished pianist someday.

Ye Eun will perform for Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong at the Young Women Muslim Association’s 55th anniversary celebrations on July 4 before heading home the next day.

Wow… the wonder of the world!! Some people takes a life time to practise SINGLE hand to perfection but she played both hands in unison without breaking a sweat!

A gift given probably in exchange with her impaired vision. *RESPECT!*


haha the design is so nice! So might as well just get a cert for myself! Of course I wouldn’t think about filing it up as my portfolio LoL

Which leads me to my own question.. do I even have a portfolio? :P

My daily routine of waking up involved reality check and where am I now..

Time seems to pass so fast when i’m having so much fun…except for today where I’m feeling abit unwell..

But anyway, first thing I’ll do in the morning is to check what date is today and made a mental note

22 more days to NS


hahaha the reality is slowly surfacing as time continues ticking away no matter what I do.

My biggest worry though is that there is still a lot of incomplete work I need to do!

Very jia lat..

Today marks my first day of chionging and I almost fall sick ler.. sianz..

I wonder how will tomorrow be like..

Ok Good Night :D

a poem that is so unlike me…

Tuesday Jul 1, 2008

I know there are going to be tons of grammar mistakes and whatsoever. But I’m just trying out stuff :D

As of this moment.. I have no idea what do I want to write yet.. so I will just type as I think..

So if you are busy, dont bother reading :)

hm….

hm…

hm….

hhhhhhmmmmmmm

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm….

AHH~!


Ok… here goes!


The flow of time stops when the line went dead…

Everything seems like a blur…

So fast yet so slow it past…

every minutes like seconds…

Walking down infinite steps…

the wild gate floods open,

waves of thoughts crushes over….

swept away all surviving thoughts,

Just like a reservoir it falls,

endless knocking on the door

all over it went thumping…

focus! is the last thing in mind

standing in one quiet corner,

awaiting the inevitable call…

sensing something very wrong…

cant help but to entertain it

finally the vibration came,

within seconds familiar music played

one press of a button and the fate is sealed..

time started moving on again…,

Only to see a dead end ahead…

PART 1 THE END..

Here’s a phrase from Forensic Heroes 2 (Charmaine is inside~!)

when a person is met with adversity, there are 3 things he must do

face it, accept it and forget it

- I remember…
