Well, that's two weeks of the holidays gone already. and I don't even feel in a holidayish mood at all. busy busy busy busy. Damn

Thailand trip has been revived. 3 to 7 December. Don't even feel like going anymore, after what happened to Grandpa this month. Then again, there's shopping. (Note to self: buy clothesssss)

Playing games these few days, discovered this really cool game called plants verses zombies. Really addictive and cute tower defence kind of game where you have to plant plants that attack the zombies and prevent them from entering your house and eating your brains.

Watching alot of Naruto these few days. Trying to catch up like madddd. ARGH

JINHONG LOOK! I MANAGED TO FIGURE IT OUT ON MY OWN!LOLS

Went back home to look at the renovations just now.. Really shocked me that they could hack down so much stuff in 2 weeks. anyway, my father was talking to some of the Chinese national workers in our house just now, they really seem friendly and all, very hardworking and really super cooperative.

Well, this kind of changes my impression of foreign workers I suppose. I think that everyone is criticizing the foreing workers because they simply do not know them well enough. It's just sterotyping them when we say that they are really cheap and low class and all. Which kind of reminds me of how the residents of the Serangoon gardens estate so violently objected to the building of a foreing worker's dormitory near the estate. We are all humans after all, I guess and it is so hypocritical of them since probably all of our ancestors were from overseas after all.

Enough of the rant, having first aid course these few days, which means I have to miss the math lessons. Don't know if thats something good or bad.. The course itself is okay I suppose, tho most of the things were taught before in normal scouts. Ok gt some pictures of the state of my house now, will leave you with that. Ciao! :D

Bear with me.

Okay, these are the photos/videos/whatnots from the primary 4 campfire this thursday that LHB forced the scouts to grace.

Whatever

Jin Hong- circa I don't know when :D

Saw this picture yesterday, when Jo was browsing through my phone. She was like "OMFG is that a pussy??". :D really put a smile on my face that one. Lols. Just a bout of randomness. Jerome, I know you're seeing this but go study your chem first.

Was waiting for the taxi a few days ago. Raining real heavily, I recall. Was second in line and I was in a realll rush to get to the pool. Then, this lady about thirty years old who was in front of me turned around and let me pass her. Maybe she noticed that I kept glancing at my watch or something, I will never know. I just thanked her and got onto the taxi, didn't even stop to get her name. Not as if I WOULD get her name, but what I'm trying to say is that, these little acts of kindness, from one person to another, even if they are complete strangers, that exemplify the human spirit. How often, in such a self centered society, do we bother to help a stranger?

well, enough ranting and stuff. Patrol day's tomorrow after chinese, feel hyped up already. :D

GOOD LUCK ALL THE HCL PEOPLE! :D

Send It On- Selena Gomez/The Jonas Brothers/Demi Lavato/Miley Cyrus

A word's, just a word
'Till you mean what you say
And love, isn't love
'Till you give it away
We've all got to give
Yeah something to give
To make a change

Send it on
On and on
Just one hand can heal another
Be apart
Reach your heart
Just one spark stars a fire
With one little action
The chain reaction will never stop
Make it Strong
Shine a Light and Send it On

Just smile (just smile)
And the world (and the world)
Will smile along with you
That small act of love
That's meant for one will become two
If we take the chances
And change circumstances
Imagine all we can do
If we...

Send it on
On and on
Just one hand can heal another
Be apart
Reach your heart
Just one spark stars a fire
With one little action
The chain reaction will never stop
Make it Strong
Shine a Light and Send it On
Send it on

There's Power in all of the choices we make
So i'm starting now there's not a moment to wait
A word's, just a word
'Till you mean what you say
And love, is no love
'Till you give it away

Send it on
On and on
Just one hand can heal another
Be apart
Reach your heart
Just one spark stars a fire
With one little action
The chain reaction will never stop
Make it Strong
Shine a Light and Send it On
Send it on

Send it on
On and on
Just one hand can heal another
Be apart
Reach your heart
Just one spark stars a fire
With one little action
The chain reaction will help things start
Make it Strong
Shine a Light and Send it On
Shine a Light and Send it On
Shine a Light and Send it On

Well, lots of things happening in my life right now. For starters, there's chinese intensive everyday till next week and the occasional Chemistry remedial. Renovating the house next week, so I've been packing up my stuff to move out. Gonna be a helluva week for me, I guess.

Not been to the scouts den recently, probably cause I've been really lazy and also cause the place is getting dirtier. Then again, I guess Calvin is right, when I go down, I always lose something. ARGH.

Last Saturday's scouts was freaking boring. Outdoors like for half the time and the sun was really scorching. I've got red marks on my back still. The plus side tho, got to play fire with HanWei and burned some termites. Woots. By the way, termites DO bite. :D

Feel really philosophical today, been thinking of what I've been doing for the entire year as well as throughout my secondary school life. Guess it's cause of what Mr Thomas shared with us during RME on Monday. Well, like Mr Quay says, we've got to really hit the ground running next year and push ourselves to the finish line. JIAYOU HCL PPL! :D

Seems like everywhere I go, the more I see the less know. But I know one thing, that I love you.

Today's the end of marking day, I suppose. Well, can't really say that I am happy with ALL of my results but still, there's some improvement, or to quote from Ms Fernandez, "effort seen" :D. Well, I guess in life you can't win all the time. Damn.
-
It's 1am in the morning and I'm still here. Had APL training today with keefe, probably the start of a hectic month trying to get small K into shape but then again, it's all worth it I suppose. At least it keeps me occupied, cause I've been like REALLY bored.
-
I've been reading more after the FYE, like 3 novels in 2 weeks so I guess I'm finally fulfilling one of my new year's resolutions. Another tick off the list at the very least. The PSP is starting to bore me, I don't have the mood to turn on the computer, I don't have the money to go out(thanks to Martin's present and Sam's dinner) and I feel darn bored. Heck, I don't even feel like going running again

OMG TODAY'S SATURDAY!ARGH. Got scouts later, gotta pack my uniform, gotta pack my file. DIEDIEDIEDIEDIED!
Well, at least the weekends here and I'm in a rather good mood today,so I'm just writing whatever that comes to mind.

Saw Wenhuan for the first time in ages the other day and I must admit he looked thinner and weaker. Well, that's what happens when you're ill. GET WELL SOON, YEAH? (as if he'd hear this, but still)

Watched Juno yesterday, and I guess I'd end on this note. FABFAB movie, go watch it somehow, like DVD or online. Just catch it. Ellen Page is not bad I suppose but the soundtrack is the real juicy part. Ok ciao amigos! :D

"And as their eyes met for the very last time, they gazed at each other, both for that moment too long, before they managed to pull themselves away. Silent, intangible tears streamed from their hearts. He smiled and turned away"

Hey there. My com's spoilt recently and so I've not been able to use the computer for a while now. Damn.

ANYWAY, went out with the cousins yesterday to Vivocity to catch the movie "Imagine that". Pretty nice by the way, go catch it if you've got 6bucks to burn. Yeps so like after the movie ended at around 6.30 we went to this German restaurant called Brotzeit. And we ordered like this gigantic Oktoberfest festival platter at $158(I've got pics!). And there was the Oktoberfest celebrations going on, with crazy people dancing and everything. Argh. Spare me the words I've got pictures and some videos so I'll end on that note. Bye babes!

Slow Dance - David Weatherford, renowned child psychologist

Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round,

or listened to rain slapping the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight,

or gazed at the sun fading into the night?

You better slow down,

don't dance so fast,

time is short,

the music won't last.

Do you run through each day on the fly,

when you ask "How are you?",

do you hear the reply?

When the day is done,

do you lie in your bed,

with the next hundred chores

running through your head?

You better slow down,

don't dance so fast,

time is short,

the music won't last.

Ever told your child,

we'll do it tomorrow,

and in your haste,not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,

let a friendship die,

'cause you never had time

to call and say hi?

You better slow down,

don't dance so fast,

time is short,

the music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere,

you miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,

it's like an unopened gift thrown away.

Life isn't a race, so take it slower,

hear the music before your song is over

Sometimes, what people need is for us to take a minute off, whatever you do, to just think. Why are we so busy. Is being preoccupied really such a neccesity?

Looking back, I've realised that this year has been rather meaningless. We have been busy with schoolwork/ccas/other activities for nearly the entire year. To be honest, this year really flew by for me. I've gained many friends in a new environment, but at the same time have lost contact with many more. All I wish for is to turn back the clock and live this year again, so that I can relive every moment, enjoy everything on the way. Well, thats to much of a rant I suppose, hope that you've been moved by that poem.

Today's marking day. And I have not submitted Quay's patrol comment form yet. Damn it. Well, prolly gonna get it done after this then.

Well, for those who don't know yet, last week I was forced to "settle down" into the blogging scene (Can delete the pictures now, Sams? :D). Well, better late then never I suppose.

Watched PCK yesterday and I've got to admit that it feels kinda odd without the other people, esp the tau heuy dude. those were the days. though its still kind of funny i suppose, but thats what you expect if you want to sequel one of our nation's most influential comedy then.

Well suppose that thats it from my end for now. Got to rush out my patrol comment form. Prolly update after that. and i'd suppose i'd better go link some people fast or this will become a monoluge. Amigos!
