Thoughts & Drumsticks

2009-03-01T08:39:00.000-08:00

I figured that its time to do a lil blogging after awhile...A post of thanksgiving.

I've just received a drum set from a nice guy that decided to give it away cuz his daughter is not playing it anymore. To my surprise, it's still pretty neat given the years it have been there.

I think to myself, What a wonderful God I have.

I told my Dad about it. he said something that I never really thought about in that way.

"You ask to improve on skills, He gave you a drum set. How great is that?"

So says who God does not answer prayers...He does in his own good time.

Well I can't really say I've been close on my walk recently. I was drifting along side of my film production. Even beyond all these "too busy for God" mindset I held, nevertheless, I was granted with smooth sailing and 5 minutes snap shot creativity.

I do feel guilty for not being to much of what I am called to be sometimes.

It makes me reflect on pretty of things I've come across in this recent weeks.

How can a tree continue to flourish its habitats when its roots are detached from the original seed source?

We talk about building, How can we when the blue print is not complete?

Is there a revelation? Are you sharing them to people?

Why do people criticise on creation itself when they do not understand the beauty of making one?

Do you go to church to be holy or to feel holy?

When will we start looking at GOV (God's point of view)

We see big pictures, He see the pixels that made them.

When will we stop waiting for Good things to happen instead of appreciating the second we have in the present?

Lots of thinking I had. There were more but I forgot them. Oh well, they'll come to me. Just like how I can literally delight in good memories realistically with every sense I have.

I am a juggler.

Revival

2008-12-08T04:50:00.000-08:00

Ok...Back from the hustle and bustle of life sitting right in the middle of my study trying hard to revive my blog.

Revived.

Christmas is coming, yay! There's gonna be a great celebration this year compared to the rest with My Hope, Ben's Camp, House Party and hopefully, a taste of some heartwarming laid back series of events. That is of course, not forgetting the presents.

So much for Christmas updates, all I want to see now is a revival in my Church! It's great to see people stepping up to take extra efforts to make it happen, it motivates me. I am not gonna sit around, I am gonna make things happen in God's plans! The salvation of other is on the line!

Music ministry is doing fine, so far, but there is a need for more anointing and better music. speaking of music, I've got a thing for Jazz & Bossa Nova, so if any one's got some to share, please do. Actually I came back to the blogging world cuz I realised people do still patronise my secluded little space of expression. Although, I do not really have lots of time to spare, but oh well, it's all for the fun.

Just some pictures to sum up what I've been doing...there's more at Facebook though.

Last Week

2008-10-15T09:03:00.000-07:00

I am going to blog about last week & this week, which is the last week of Yay days.

Last week does not seem to distant from me for the experiences were valuable, well, it's better late than never.

Last week - "The Rose Mansion" production week

I agreed to cast for my friends final year project which had honestly had doubts on before and thank God I agreed to go for that in fact was one of the greatest times of my holidays. Call time was at Gallop Rd, bet most people don't know where that is, I know I don't.

7am to me is a killer, Everyday I drag my pathetic self into washing up and getting ready to set off to hail a freaking cab that is willing to take in 3 extra people along the way. I don't understand why but it seems that the cabby nowadays are not really interested in our money anymore.

That was just the appetisers, the highlight was the new friends I actually met, Raniel & Kok Xiang and the other crew members. They're all actually very nice, far off from what I expect them to be. I got to know friends whom I knew better, friends that I did not treasure before but not anymore of that. They felt so real to me, not that they were not before but it's just that, its closer.

So much for people, now lets get down to the location itself, my god, it was filled with Bat shit and that's was what we got all over our bodies during a fight scene. It seem so ruined & abandoned, so much so that nature kinda reclaim a portion of it back. I was not that surprised till someone told me that it was had only been abandoned for 4 years.

The acting part was really the greatest insight that one whom is in the studies of film can get. I realised now why there are awards given to the best actor & actresses, acting ain't a walk in the park I tell you. There were scenes whereby you knew what it felt like to be natural yet you can't just shake away the feeling that the camera is in your direction. There were time whereby I felt a letdown to the crew for my incompetence, Thankfully, they were pretty tolerant.

Oh...just a insight to note down for good reference the next time I come back to read...

Cast:

Jem(me) - Ivan (All looks but nothing inside)
Kok Xiang - Jason (The timid gangster)
Raniel - Benjamin Zhi Wei (The nerdy good friend)
Betty - Stephanie (The sweet and murderous part-time girlfriend)
Apple - Clare (The injury prone psycho)

Crew:

Ye Xiang - almost expressionless director
Candice - Very nice uhh...Shes got a big position
Melissa - Pledged-to-care-for-you producer

Ok I'm sorry about the rest but I just didn't get your names in time.

This are mainly the people that I hung out with for the whole 4 days shoot. I must say that these were really one of the best times I had...hopefully the Sentosa outing will be carried out as planned. =)

Compared to the fun last week, this week is not as fun, still fruitful though...

Thanks be to God

Happy Birthday Jerome

I really NEED those other freaking photos...to be continued.

swing & sway

2008-09-28T10:11:00.000-07:00

I've been on a swinging mood lately...not really a bad thing but it brought me closer to Mr. G...Hes my classic guitar...

speaking of G...Its also 1 of my favourite chord family...sounds nice and easy to play...how about that? Oh right, my random cravings for producing better sound took me to the airport and play with my friends like no tomorrow...which is today and there actually is a tomorrow. Its just a saying.

Someone told me today that a guy he did not really knew said that guitarist that strum and pluck chords are not "real" guitarist...He better be an excellent player to say that...even Mozart and Chopin plays chords...

G D Em C

Oh yea...as for F1...too bad Hams didn't make the break...oh well...at least he still get to spray wine at all the other people...

There was an accident though...the worst of all F1...

Laughs everytime I see it...

Post Poly Forum

2008-09-21T07:19:00.000-07:00

Its been 3 days since the I've been back from Poly Forum 2008 and its only till now that I'm talking about it.

A big part of the the reason was due to the fact that I can't get my hands on the pics that I wanted, but its ok...I've got it already.

I have to applaud NYP on their effort in organising such a big event, so much so that they even brought in ministers to sit in and open up discussions (Guess that's what they do in forums). My inability to feel excited about the event was explained as the days go along in there. I had a feeling that I was somewhat like a helpless bird being trapped, not sure why though.

I had no choice but to rise to the occasion and that was when it calls for a "Fun Jem" to rise from its sleep, to make fun out of boredom.

Hey it was not all that bad...now that I recalled, the bowling competition event was pretty great. I made a new personal record of 135! (with handicap)

Ugh...I think the best times was the last day where everything was going slow for me, can't say the same for the rest. We (I made new friends) went around playing games and stuff...it was better when night fell.

Then there was this smart Lil girl that drank cocktail and came telling me she was sober...

"Hey I'm not drunk k...I know (pointing at the numbers on my shirt) 2 + 1 + 10 + 0 = 3!"

I pronounced her drunk after she asked me where her room was.

The night was long and it turn arduous for me as I had trouble keeping awake. The forfeit made by my friends were too heavy for me to even afford an eye shut.

The whits stuff on our faces were toothpaste...it dried
I don't know what happen here

Some of the people I met

In overall, the people there were great, the fun was fun and I enjoyed the days.

Happy days...all my ways!~ Randomness

A Breakthrough!

2008-09-08T09:59:00.000-07:00

It is more than what the title claims to be!

It is a breakthrough in my own spiritual walk with God!

An overnight prayer event held by Campus Crusade that made an astounding inpact upon me, not sure if the others feel the same. To be honest, I thought I was gonna sleep my way through the event. It is seemly impossible with all the excitment and insights that was shared, not forgeting the fun with friends and the crazy things done to keep the metabolism rate running.

It is through and by this camp that I saw a side of me that have really been floating on stagnant water.

I thought I needed more to life, but I realised that I lacked the drive.

I learnt about the fortunate state that I am placed in by grace and yet, that I did not appreciate.

I talked about many but failed to comply to any.

It is not a change that I want but really a living relationship that I need. Thus, Im back in the zone! The one thing I took back from that camp was to stop living in the past of the world but for the present and future of the promise. Let not things that away something that was bestowed to us by extended mercy & grace.

Full of Pride -> Taking things in Stride

This is a testimony, believe it.

The new friends I made friends and the friends I remade, I shall not forget. Especially the encouraging one, Yvonne.

Oh! A new hero emerged from the conference!

StrapJacket-Man!

Inspiration

2008-09-02T09:28:00.000-07:00

Recently I went to this worship song writing competition, "The Genesis Project", I must say that I underestimated the entertainment value beforehand.

They were not just song writers but musicians that actually got their own band, it was so freaking awesome. Not only was the songs inspiring, but also, the music and the effort they put in bringing their songs to the extreme level that really awaken the longing to worship again!

I say that God ins working in the midst of my family, even my mum got inspired to take the stage in church, something that we both thought was impossible before. If God wants it, anything is possible.

It seems that I've been inspired a lot to get my built back in shape considering that I managed to skip working out for so long due to the time consuming modules I had last block. It seems that kicking soccer have become even more difficult with no one in school to compete with, seems like everyones taking a break from school life.

Oh well, I need to start planning to get experienced in my field of filming, seems like it is not all about cameras after all, lots of things like advertising is also involved. Oh yea...speaking of that, do go support and watch the upcoming film, The Days, it is one awesome show not to be missed. I know it because I was there when they did it. So just go watch it!

Yay days are here!

2008-08-22T11:05:00.001-07:00

It's offcial...I broke another personal record this morning(past the 12)...I worked my hine off for 14 hours straight!

Record Time: 10am to 12am (read carefully, its tricky)

Yea...I am proud of myself...and I declare that Yay Days are here to stay for a good 2 months...alright!

After all that Video Editing & Film Language class, I am technically off the hook, thought I still got 3 more movie reviews to write about but oh well, theres time.

I've planned my holidays well this time, I'm chilling out everyday! I hope...Oh yea...and theres D'Olympics...I wanna kick some balls, Soccer balls. Hope I can find a design team, or the other way round.

OH yea and theres Poly Forum...dang...Its gonna take a few good weeks away from me but oh well, What can I say, its all for the experience, what an encouraging point of view.

Shopping & Chilling! Uhh yea...Shopping, gotta get some stuff to compensate for my loss which I will think about after I get my stuff. As for the chilling part, I am free...so ring me up it you're reading this.

Since I might be too free, I might get do part time in the second month, well, it ain't that bad considering that I've already got a Job offer and the pays' pretty high. Then I can save that cash for more shopping...not.

Oh yea...I am gaining some extra pounds from where I am sitting now so I wanna go Run & Gym...with company of course...hmm...that will be hard.

I will read my Bible...I will be Humble...it rhymes.

Haircut...Change a new style if possible.

Anyone has got Ben10 season 4 episodes or know where to get them?

I am surprised to be even blogging now...Look at the time...

PS: the above written are note to self. =)

Boring Saturday

2008-08-15T23:00:00.001-07:00

Its a boring Saturday...

The Great Kick Off

2008-08-10T07:48:00.000-07:00

It was just yesterday that I finally had time to just let myself go and enjoy in the Campus Crusade Challenge Club.
In short, it a tertiary Street soccer tournament.

My team aka easy company(half of them) aka...TP team(Not really, there were RP & NYP representitives too)

Nicholas - TP Howling Black Cannon
Robin - TP GameBreaker
Jem (Me) - TP Opportunist
Jerome - Rp Saver Extrodinaire
Rowland - NYP Miracle Jester
John - TP White Knight

It not as big scale as I thought it would be, 9 teams to be exact inclusive of the uni, staff and Jc team. Well, I thought that it would be just a easy game, something like having fun kicking balls. I thought wrong.

The vibe of winning suddenly jacked up from within and I'm not sure why but I had the gut feeling that that was the day to win. Well, I do have a great team in hand.

we started off with a daunting draw. 2 : 2

Then... an easy win, as least thats what I thought. 4 : 3

Followed by a Splendid victory 3 : 1

A daunting close shave(We made enemies) 6 : 4

And the ending win(We had only 2 supporters) 4 : 2

Thank God for the Win, cuz to be honest, its probably the only thing I've ever won in my life with a substantial medal to prove. There were really times where I thought "omg we're not gonna make it", but we did. Also, I realised how hard I tried to in trying to achieve my goals, at the cost of my legs (God its aching now).

There were also very funny goals that reminded me that anything is possible, one of which whereby the opposing team keeper throw was deflected by the Jester, granting us a 1 second goal! What an EPL standard move, he should have made it into the book of records.

I had my moments too, but of all that, I really thanked God for answering my prayers, not for victory but for a good day. I bought my first pair soccer boots after my match to prevent further destruction of my legs for being too extreme in games. Oh, and now I'm so tanned that a lobster would laugh at me for it.

The day was good, oh well, now back to assignments.

*Smiley Face*

Bon Voyage to Jacqualine thats leaving for further studies in the US.

Movie craze

2008-08-06T11:16:00.000-07:00

You remember the days where watching a movie is all for pure entertainment?

Well...not anymore for me this block for I am undergoing the process of Film Language.

Sometimes, I really have second thoughts of joining this course, then again, I entertain myself with better thoughts of me in a production, which very often overrides the second.

Why can't I just watch movies brainlessly without having to write reports on them? I think I would learn better that way for I take notices of subtilities on my own accord.

Ok...Preservere, its just one busy block and here comes holidays. I shall endure.

Yes, I am kinda busy at the moment, please leave a message after the sound of the beep

*beep*

I ran out of literature, explains why I am tryping here...

._.

Changes

2008-07-30T10:47:00.000-07:00

I need Makeover.

My fashion expired 2 years ago and I am still sticking to it mainly cuz I am not a wealthy man neither is my father. I just went to take a look a shoes in Queensway shopping centre and how exposed I was to the term "Retail price".

A street boots at 55 when it cost 99 at usual shopping outlets, what a deal not to be missed. I still can't get a deal for my converse whites though. Oh yea, I forgot about my jogging shoes, that can come later.

A list of things-to-do really kept me going and resuming me to my positiveness.

Why so serious Jem?

yea...tell that to the emo sitting at the corner residing at the edge of the stairway.

At least I am picking myself up, of course, with the help of Crusade.

Oh just a thought, Birthday Wishes to Priscilla! *smiley face*

"I'm not a warehouse of sophistication, just simple, shy & soft-spoken."

Subcom Camp

2008-07-28T10:54:00.000-07:00

Well...I'm finally back from camp...and I was too tired to even post...In fact, I'm still tired now...and I can't get my positive emotions back.

I must say that the time in camp really took my mind off things. Well at least I had fun while it lasted.

Well, back to school life, all the lessons and stuff, I like this block for its all about Video...I shall be at ease.

Nothing can explain why I am feeling like this right now...all that suits me now is just a lil song...that keeps playing in my head all day long.

It will pass...I hope...

I'm not emo...am I?

._.

Sudden realisation

2008-07-22T08:27:00.000-07:00

Well...I've been good recently. Some things are still left unchanged though, my lack of sleep, my daily routines, my meals, etc.

If I haven't keep track of time, I wouldn't have realised that its been half a year and I am already year 2, at least now I am feeling it. Seems like I need to keep up or I'll fall out.

Weird it may seem, but I just realised a lot today with me doing self reflection on my way home. The theme summed up "Its now or never".

Many things come and go and I always think that I am too slow and fail to notice even when I am aware. The things is that, I always doubt my gifting.

Its never too late.

So well, I figured that I should apply this in all aspects of my life, anywhere, anytime. Otherwise, I would again repeat the same mistakes, when all is too late.

As for work-based development wise, I decided to start doing some doodles and software exploration. I am not gonna sit there and play games, not as much.

As for the other aspects, well, I would just have to start learning and accepting.

Oh well, that's a lot of promises for a night, I should get back to doing my assignment

Did I mention that its due tomorrow?

Last Straw

2008-07-13T09:15:00.000-07:00

Heres a quick defination of Priority found in Dictionary.com...

pri·or·i·ty

n. pl. pri·or·i·ties

Precedence, especially established by order of importance or urgency.
1. An established right to precedence.
2. An authoritative rating that establishes such precedence.
A preceding or coming earlier in time.
Something afforded or deserving prior attention.

Yes...If thats too difficult how about my defination?

"Do what is of greater importance first!"

Ye know...even as I have said this many times, some people just don't get it. You think you're gonna get far with skills and knowledge of a certain software?

YOU THOUGHT WRONG!

You can't even get your priotities right, nevermind if you are not interested at all in doing those "unrelated" modules, don't pull your freaking group members down!

Yes I am Angry!

So what if you can do fancy stuff when you are always late, no apologises for your tardiness, shows no interest in projects, belittle modules of "least importance", do not bother to make time to help your group members, procastinate work and to top it off, don't even bother at all!

I may be nice but ye crossed the line man...Patience is eradicated from my senses when it comes down to this.

This is the last straw & you're gonna reap what you sow if no further actions of repentance is initiated. Don't blame me bro, blame yourself.

When I say its cool, its means the cold side of me. Go figure.

Wait & See if you even bother to be early tomorrow.

Forgive me if I am wrong...I don't think I am.

Words of Wisdom

2008-07-10T09:32:00.000-07:00

My Dad told me something important today...He got a job offer for me at some high class retail shop...Nice pay..Problem is...I am not interested at all.

Well...I was pretty hesitant on taking that offer...I wanted to take a break in my holidays...and besides...I've got Poly Forum which I don't even know when.

I can say that my expression just now would have totally shooed my Dad off my back...BUT, He was patient enough to convince me, which weren't really convincing.

However, he told me something that I've forgotten ever since I got busy.

"Don't confine yourself in a circle. Explore!
Get out of that small fish tank, take on the river, then the sea.
The Sky is your limit." - Dad

Basically he said that all in Chinese and I just summarised it so it's somewhere along that line. Oh he didn't say the Sky part, I just thought that it would fit in.

I love Philosophy myself and I thought that it was really a great lesson to be learned. I am proud to have a him as a Dad and this ain't no corny stuff, if you even know what I mean.

If I recall correctly, I remembered telling saying like this to Greg today too, He wasn't as receptive though. Looks like I have to practise what I preach.

Seems like I might wanna go take on the river after all, anyone interested?*

Thanks Dad.

Applicable for design students only for our holidays falls on those days*

Audio Fun

2008-07-09T10:37:00.000-07:00

I had Fun in audio today cuz we were supposed to cover for the song "If I let you go" by Westlife. It was, is and still will be the most emotional song I have ever heard.

Sometimes I find myself in between the lines of the lyrics.

We had lots of takes...yea...

-I tired to sing the higher pitch

-Jake did the Shane part

-Raj decided to add in his Indian accent

-Greg was just...trying to be funny...

-Wendy was the sound coordinator

Well...in the end, we sang another original proper one...with no funny stuff inside cuz there were lots of spectators. It kinda made me feel shy...and I think i couldn't hit the pitch partly cuz of that...or is it that I just cant hit it from the start...

Oh yea...I am finally back into Crusade...haven seen them in awhile...

I should work on my conversation skills...It's making me look bad.

Ok...I gotta sleep...nite

Youth Sunday Success

2008-07-06T10:35:00.000-07:00

Omg(literally)...The CCF Youth Sunday event was a....SUCCESS! =)

I am really thankful to God for helping us pull through the tough times of practice...despite the fatigue, the discouragements and all(I really mean it)...We made it...!

Good Job to you all guys!

It is just the begining...

In time to come, Im sure we will all be better and more experienced in the art of Worship...and not just Music itself...

Theres too many to thanks thus I shall no mention names...U know it.

And yes...I am so tired now...just came back from a good nights jog. It gets harder as I age. I thought that I could shed some pounds(Im lean though) and keep myself refreshed for the nights work.

Seems like I made myself even more worn out, it worked the last time...maybe I jogged a little too long. ._.

Oh yea...Thanks be to Wei Jie for the great BBQ...It was fun while it lasted.

Man...I gotta start making my moves or I'll never get things right.

Dinner with Old Timers

2008-07-04T10:42:00.000-07:00

Well...I had a great dinner today with my buddy and Jade(d)...I must say...its been too long since I even spoke to them...They made my day today. =)

We settled at PS. Cafe to Eat and stuff and good God the food prices were sky high...I wouldn't even dare to order the side dishes...let alone the main course. The place was great though, as in the design and layout, even the service is beyond comprehension.

Ye noe...I felt really pretty astonished when Buddy said she would treat me to it and kinda felt guilty too...cuz shes always treating me...so one day when I make it big, I am so gonna bring them out for a feast!

Throughout the whole night, we were so entertained with each other that i think it made the other diners feel like they've got little source of entertainment...Lets just say that we made merry and it lasted the night.

Oh right....Jade made me a very nice impromptu card...The thought of making it is already greatly appreciated. =)

Haha...The funny thing is that Jade actually printed the map out to locate the cafe....we ended up asking passer-bys for help in the end...So much for maps...haha....

I'm really thankful to have great friends like them, they would always be there for me...regardless of anything...

Well...Jades got the pictures for the night so I can't upload them till she sends it to me...well...its up to imagination for now...

This sounds a lil cliche but...Buddies for life gals! =)

"I would do anything to make someone happy, to the expense of my joy." ._.

Back to life

2008-06-27T12:39:00.000-07:00

I guess This blog is pretty dead ain't it huh?

Oh well, I was bsuy...and I had to make priorities... =)

"I am Bsuy" very familiar to some people that noticed it eh?

Here's the Rationale...

I realised that people do not take not of the Msn busy sign and will still bug u no matter what...So I decided to catch their attention to cast their attention somewhere else but me during that period. Thus, I tried to be innovative and spelt it wrongly on deliberate.

Why? Because it is then that the word is out of the norm and people will then notice it...thus, realising that I am busy and they can read it and tell that its wrong because...

It is proven that no matter how jumbled up the words are, as long as the first and the last letter remains intact, it is still readable.

Another reason for so is to portray that I am so busy that I don't even bother to correct my spelling mistake after typing so fast.

In conclusion, I was busy and that was deliberate.

For people that are so smart and thinks otherwise...I strongly doubt your Intellectual level too... =)

~

Oh my God...See what work does to me...now I am writing a rationale to prove my point...wow...this is really getting to my head... and I am training myself to blog everyday so that I am prepare to do any journal that comes in my way. I learnt to keep the pace and consistently complete my reflection journal daily to prevent "sleep debts".

I can see that my tag board is being filled and to those that I have yet to...all i can say is...yo whats up! haha...will reply the next time.

Anyway...many things happened over the 2 weeks...

I am Officially 18...yay!

I made some progress in my work!

I made new friends!

I just overcame sleepless nights!

I got cut off from my friend! boo~

I need to buy a Running shoe and a nice white shoe!

I had many nice treats! =)

I thank god that I am still blogging here!

wow...that's a lot...and yea...for my friends that I have not seen for a thousand years...Here I come...again...but my timetable is screwed so no guarantees.

I like banana Muffins =)

Sleepless nights, busy week & simple =)

2008-06-12T10:43:00.000-07:00

Well...First & foremost, its technically 1 more day to my key semi freedom. Away with M18s & No Driving cuz I'm in the zone! soon...

Its been a really busy week I must say, Crazy & Reckless decision to torture us almost killed me in the night. Its the first the that I slept so little(1 hr) and then waking up again and hurrying to sch. It would have been totally impossible for me if I didn't had night company. Thanks for that.

I received the best present that I can ever have in all of my Birthdays, the Joy within. I am totally positive that the element for causing this reaction is very much valuable and can't make do without. Understood-ed? =)

I think the fatigue is getting to my head...I'm stoning in class and not laughing at stuff I would usually laugh at. The worse is that...I think I might be becoming a bored person cuz I can't think much. So if I ever bore or have already done so, my bad.

Anyway...I feel much better now in terms of fatigue level cuz I'm heading to sleep. I got no Birthday plans for now, sadly. So if you're there having nothing to do, surprise me...haha just kidding, at least wish me. =)

I just took lots of photos recently...but I'm lazy to upload them...maybe some other time

I still have to mention it cuz it really amazed me, cakes never tasted so good and I am sure it is not because I don't often eat it.

I'm always thinking...

An unexpected suprise

2008-06-09T09:16:00.001-07:00

Its been pretty long since I did some updates but well...that does not matter cuz Im doing it now...

Besides...Its just a few more days to my 18th Birthday! (5 days to be exact)

I just love this time of the year...unfortunately, I've got school...not on my Birthday however so technically, I can still celebrate!

I love the Crusaders! They actually planned a Party for me and the other June babies but I didn't attend it due to assignments...argh! Im sorry guys...and thanks for the Gift & Cards! I just love the design and effort put it. Its so obvious that its being emited from the cards like the sweet scent of lavender.

Anyway...I just hope that I get to see all my friends during the few days of my Birthday period...old ones and new ones...God grant me time and favour...

Thank God for all my walking blessings.

Free time ending

I love breaks

2008-05-24T10:03:00.000-07:00

I am taking a break from Des Sch now and I'm starting to love breaks...

Does it mean that I do not like breaks?

Not really...Just that it can be boring sometimes...But not this break...

Why?

1) Design OrhTogether Chalet...

2) Watched Loads of movies

3) Hillsongs United Youth Concert!

...Yea...This are the main 3 events that really rocked my socks this week. Gotta say that the chalet is really relaxing...and tiring. Let's just say I had fun...

So currently...I'm beginning to enjoy chick flicks...What happened in Vegas was pretty good...the story built up was pretty interesting and the camera angles were surprisingly good.

Next up would be Made Of Honour. I must say that it is really a dream come true type of show...its pretty similar to Vegas and all the other chick flicks i watched...There will always be a "bang-into-the-waiter" scene...not sure why cuz I don't really find it funny but yea...

And then, there was Speed Racer...Well...insults on very fake graphics aside...the show really lived up to the cartoon...Its like a whole new art movement...And I think that the graphics were deliberately made that way to give the show a feel of olden cartoon coming to live. So if you don't watch it just because of some flaws that aren't really flaw...to bad yo...Missing a good show...

My days had been great lately...especially today...Hillsong was totally awesome...I must say that the touch was greater than FOP...I just like hillsongs...so yea...gonna get their album...Not Downloading for Christ sake...literally.

Btw...for those that reads my blog and are in Design Sch...This is a humble request...

Please Vote for Ong Yi Jie & Chrystal for the Main Comm Election

-27-29 May
-Cyber Cafe
-11am to 6pm

Yea...Please...Vote for them...first...then vote for the other people that are running as well...Maximum vote that each individual have is 15...however, you can only vote for the same person once...

Thank You

Buffet Lunch with Franco

2008-05-02T10:23:00.000-07:00

Franco had a mini lunch buffet the day this photos were taken...Photo shall do the talking...

.
..
...
....
.....
......
.......Ok...We tried to play royalty & the kings in us were portrayed quite differently...

The Almighty ruler

The calm & unmoved ruler

And the confident + proud ruler...

Its was pretty fun till we accidentally broke some of the props...back up...they were broken from the start...we just justify it by moving them out of place...

The later day was pretty intense though...I learnt quite a lot of what-not-to-dos...

Listening can actually explain the unsaid...

Indecisiveness will bring u no where...

Sitting around the whole day can be meaninful

Things that people say would break even the best kept limits

Everything on the outside is not what it seems on the inside

Not everyone would share everything

I would say that some things really did affected me to some extent...for the first time in ages I felt such pissness. Im restricted of being myself, which I don't like it at all. For once, I feel the Whateverness in me...

Don't like it? Whatever!

Can't take the heat? Get out of the kitchen!

Words can really hurt eh? God...this is so not the usual me...

What makes a Leader

2008-04-28T10:14:00.000-07:00

I'm taking Leadership Classes now and I think its really awesome!

Why?

Easy..That's because I really learn lots from that module and even from day 1, this sentence struck my head and I think it would stay that way..."A leader does the right things right."

Pretty inspiring huh?

Who?

Half of the seats in class are filled by camp evo people...that's why it really spiced up the lessons. Even the others that weren't in camp really made a difference to the class. I gotta say...we're a pretty fun bunch with all kinds.

When? Where?

Everyday in school? 6pm.

How?

Uhh...Next! *ting ting ting*~

Its really one class that I look forward to everyday after Script Writing...imagine me...looking forward to Leadership when some said it was boring...oh man...what can I say?

For all those out there...yea I'm still alive and kicking...and I haven't forgotten u!

I wanna make time for all my friends though I know its pretty impossible...given my timetable.

Thank God~ =)

Im year 2!

2008-04-23T09:52:00.000-07:00

Time past and before I knew it, I'm in year 2!

Yao yao she me shang ren!!!!

Things have been pretty busy lately...I decided to work myself hard if I wanna get on the directors list next year...yea...Things have been looking pretty well...Enjoying the company of my friends and MISSING the company of friends that I have not seen for ages...

I'm feeling the blues again...argh...don't really like that feeling but I can't help it...and that Westlife song(If I let U Go) keeps playing in my head. Its so loud that I'm afraid my thoughts will spill out and everyone would hear it.

Oh well...I should just enjoy the fun time while it last...Sometimes I'm just not a talker...can't really entertain ppl...hmm...just stop & stare I guess...then crap a lil...yea...maybe that will work...haha...

I'm talking a cool module called leadership and it rocks!!!! Apparently cuz half of the class are ppl from camp...

I don't like my timetable...3 to 9...she me di yu...

I shall maintain peace and my walk with God...yea...thats something I would like...

I'm too shy to ask...I'm too proud to lose...but sooner or later, I gotta chose...

Doc Camp...

2008-04-19T05:08:00.000-07:00

Im back from Design Orientation Camp and I think it rock big time!

I seen changes and miracles, the other sides of people, not in a bad sense but yea...

The experiences gained was really beyond comphrehension, learning to adapt to last minute changes was pretty much happening all the time which I thought was a great lesson.

I also felt the bond between my fellows empire friends and the freshies. Which not even a winning sensation can achieve.

I got too much to say...and I was really touched by one of my freshies that enjoyed the camp in the end. Wow, really...

Ok...I forgot what I had in mind so I will just stop here...

FRANCO ROCKS!!!!...ok maybe here. =)

Today was supposed to be a nice day

2008-04-07T10:30:00.000-07:00

I loved today(yesterday)...
I really had fun with the Francos
All those bonding times,they are priceless.

I love the friends that I gained,
All equally important.

I don't mind sacrificing a little,
just to make them happy.
But can I do the same for my family?

I learnt many lessons
from one unfortunate experience.

Will they stay on to break me?
Will they care just for me,
But my brother, the one and only.

To worry, will not solve my problem.
To envy, does not change the situation.

All I want is unclear.
All I need is a provider.
All I can do is to surrender.

It's not a poem after all...just some thoughts. thoughts that were cleanly casted aside while I take a joy ride with the people of my side.

Postman of the day

2008-04-03T11:01:00.000-07:00

Today I learnt the ways of the postman...OMG!!! Kudos to them...met up with the Pasir Ris designers and ate with them, then continued on our journey...yea...endured the scorching sun & the harsh windy rain...That was how bad the weather was...the freshies better come for the camp to show their appreciation to us man. It's for their own good anyway.

I felt rather left out today honestly, partially worried too for my group members cuz from what I saw, I think I had the least letters to send out to. I wished that I could help them out...at least the very minimal in guiding directions, but I suck at that too. Left out in a sense cuz I was the only Franco, which made me a Franco representative for Pasir Ris. Oh well...things happen. However, I made new friends and that's a pretty good thing! OK, photos..finally... The fun we had today, not all of them though.

Bored of waiting I guess...

When a 2 bladed Swordsman is full of life

When a 2 bladed Swordsman Prepare to fight

When a 2 bladed Swordsman is old...HAHA! I look darn funny!

Group Photo!!!!

As for the Sword play thing...heheh...I was pretty bored...can tell eh? Its a childhood fantasy of mine to wield 2 swords & fight like a crusader! I guess I had fun..Its nice to have good friends around.

Thankful spirit

2008-04-02T10:20:00.000-07:00

I'm rather busy these few days as there are things like meetings that happen every now and then. I like my life this way...I love to just go out and chill around, talk to friends, make them happy and put a smile on their faces.

I dread staying at home doing nothing except sticking myself to the screen. I would only do that if I got work to do. I don't play games cuz I feel it's wasting my life away. Maybe one day when I grow old, I would then just get hooked on these fancy online games that some of my friends around me can't live without.

I met up with my sec sch classmates 2 days ago...they doing pretty fine except some are still stuck in the sec sch mindset. I don't blame them cuz, I they might not be having the time of their lives as I'm in Design sch. Anyway, I got pretty good grades this time round, cuz I really worked for it, not wanting to fall back any longer. Thanks MAL for helping me check my results. Thank God for standing by me.

My GPA : 3.13

It's still not what I aim for though, gotta put in more effort into it.

I just realised that I've got many hidden brothers & sisters in Christ around me. I feel blessed to be in their midst & I really wanna thank god for revealing them to me. I just wanna thank god that he puts me in a place where I know I'm not alone wherever I go.

I felt pretty ashamed today, I saw the boy at the side of my eye, but I was really shy in giving up my seat to him. An old sister had to remind me of that. I guess sacrifice also includes overcoming this obstacle for the sake of someone else.

Anyway, I also thank god that he puts challenges in my life, one of them is just arsing. I guess I would just have to be in control. I really thank God that I'm in Franco. Nice people....suits me I guess. But sometimes, it gets pretty lonely.

Oh God please bless my church!

I need a very close friend that I can relate to...God grant me the one I'm looking for.

Camp was good...But FRANCO TOOK THE STAGE!!!!

2008-03-31T10:46:00.000-07:00

As u know...I'm back from camp...and for those that don't, now u know...

DOTC 2 RAWWWOOOCCCKKSSSSS!!!~

Ahh...just had to get that out...shouted in my mind as loud as I could while typing that...haha. I am really grateful that I'm in Franco, formerly known as Revyn.

Well initially, I was a lil worried though during DOTC1 for the fact that there are only 3 guys & like dunno how many gals. But those gals proved to be more than meets the eye. They were like Yi Jie said...Neither guys nor gals...in betweens...hybrids...oh you get my point. But that an awesome thing, to be look upon in an optimistic manner! The guys remained as guys...yea. In short...We Rock!

Oh I guess that there are somethings that is not too perfect too. communication break downs tend to occur, that can be settled I guess, just have to set the frequency right. I guess its just that we have to all kinds of great Ideas that leads to confusion during discussions. Somethings like static and connection errors when ur on the hp, com & cable TV at the same time. Well, theres always something like Starhub to fix that problem in technical sense, as what they said in their commercial.

But for us, I think its like compromising and being firm in our stand, supporting each other, yea...that would be even more awesome than we already are!

The most memorable times I had fun there would have to be the station games, the night walk & the mass dance. I guess its the same for everyone since those were the highlights of design camp! Haha! I got pretty freaked out during the night walked during the time we were in the guys toilet. I knew that there were people(ghost) inside, I was about to stretch out the open the door when one of them suddenly just rammed open the door, with me & Lina just beside the door. Yea...Freaky...even till now. Shh...don't spread that.

I really LOVE the people in the group because for our group, "It doesn't take all kinds, we just got all kinds"

Kudos to Lina, the best Gl in our group! I guess she really deserved it for she was the one that really led us all and we unknowingly tend to look to her for directions. Shes cool. Since shes on the front line, there would be ppl that works behind the scenes and I think that people like Myra, Vivien and Sabique would be the best description, I would give them credit for that.

We don't really hear them shouting and stuff, probably because the loudys like Crys & Angie engulfed our voices. We're loud...its just that they are louder. What a BOOM!

When we run out of our voices or maybe we lack of some stuff, who do we turn to? Yuan Ming of course, the welfare of our grp, at least the most prominent one in terms of meeting the needs of our grp members...Then again, we would always need to plan well to prevent troubling the welfare person and Evelyn would be the person. I mean shes pretty organised and she knows how to sow...after all, she from ADM.

We got director Ben that led us in our performance night. Hes knows what he wants and his ideas are much different from us. Speaking of differences, Sam is also someone that sees things in a different light. He see things in 2 perspective and would often lead to a conclusion that neither way is worse that the other. In this case, we would be at lost of to what decisions to make and we got the firm and straight Carissa to do the job. Shes good in pointing out the flaws that sometimes we don't see and she is very meticulous, which is a good thing.

When Franco says we got all kinds, we definitely got all kinds, even cute ones...haha. If you were there when Amaris did her cute voice thingy with god knows what in her mouth, you would wanna record it down and put it as a ring tone....haha. Shes awesome too in her own way, size - would really just be a word in the dictionary for her case.

Oh yea, my partner in the play, Paul, hes is really one heck of a guy that is a supportive person. In a sense, he greatly supports us in whatever we come up with and has no qualms about it, well, maybe a lil, after all, we got all kinds and all kinds have got different perspective.

I would also like to include the super freshies like Joey, Ivoly & Shian as a part of us for they are really great, considerably that they are freshies. They ain't called super for no reason, I assure that.

Oh yea, of course, theres Yijie and Chrys too...our Fa(s)...Special thanks to them in guiding us far. I think would wouldn't have made it without them. =)

Its pretty sad that Christina & Valerie couldn't made it due to their hectic schedule, I would really preferred if they stayed on. Its sad that Noverm can't attend too due to her illness, hopes she gets well soon and joins us in the real DOC!!

So yea...I guess that pretty much about about it...tired...I should rest...I got no pics...I do but Im just too lazy to post. USE your imagination to think of the fun I had... =)

Nothing...just getting ready for Camp

2008-03-27T08:38:00.001-07:00

I realised a need to blog daily...I think it really makes one reflect about their day and perhaps, their life.

For me, I am just too bored sometimes, like I've got nowhere to go or something to do. So if blogging enables me to kill time, well why not?

I had to help my Dad today for some setting up of curtains in an apartment. I finally realised what he meant by he can't really do it alone when did what he did. I think my Dad is really one successful guy. He is just an ordinary laundry man earning what not even manager of today would earn. I am not saying it to boast about how rich I am, In fact, I am rather poor in a sense. But, its how God came into my family and made things happen. Oh Thank God.

2 years ago, I still can't even afford a Starbucks coffee and I have to save really hard to go chill there with my friends. Today, I am still in the same situation, except that I don't really have to safe up, I would just spend less. There is a difference.

However, my life don't revolve around Starbucks coffee, I would rather give that sum of money to do something good. I guess I did. Then I ponder about it, looking up in the sky. I realised that we sometimes are so busy that we forget the beautiful things in life like the sky. Very often, I would just look up and see what wonder God painted in the sky and yes he is the greatest artist I have seen, through his works.

So I tried to be as good except, in Photoshop. Oh well, in any case, I shall get back to Corinne May's works of wonders. She just inspires me...

I'm going for camp tomorrow...I guess I have to say that since I put that up on my title.

Bring the dead back to life

2008-03-26T10:33:00.000-07:00

I guess I was pretty busy these few weeks...so much so that I didn't had time to blog...oh well...lets just do re-caps for now since I got too much to say...but I don't want to say too much...

.......

Hung with Nicholas till he flew off for Thailand Mission trip. - A piece of me is gone

Ended Project 1 with Bangs & applauses! - Happy

Finished watching Bleach till the latest episode. - uhh...fine

Fell in love with Corrinne May's new album - She's a talent that God sent to ease hearts

Went to celebrate the end of Project one with few friends! - Nice....

Gained Experience from a movie production. - Fun & awesome

Went to pick The Australia Crusade team from the airport. - They were glad

Thanked God for painting the sky. - I will still give thanks

Made new Friends. - Of course I love that!

Celebrated Irene's Birthday. - She was Happy and still is

Worked out after like...I dunno...so long... - I must say, I'm getting old

Big Plans for an animation competition - Just do it

Met up with Franco(Revyn) - We still rocks! Zai team!

Caught up on some photoshop skills - Still need to learn more stuff

Emotional tremor - Argh...hate it

Chilled with old friends - Ahh the good times

...end...thats all so far I guess

I must say that I really do not like to be interrupted when I'm talking. Its disrespectful and I would lose respect for that person too by cutting in his or her speech. Also, if one does not favour my concepts, please tell me straight, rather than to try and find faults in it and make it not possible when I'm freaking sure that its possible. I got many ways to kill in words, I chose not to. Don't push it.

Then again, Spit and Kill, breaks the Crew, for this reason I shall not kill.

Hang Buddy

2008-03-11T09:11:00.000-07:00

I have been rather free lately after the production period...its Raj's turn to take over the post production...

So instead of just killing myself in my own train of emotive thoughts, I decided to hang around with my buddy Nick. Its always fun hanging around him, always make funny comments out of nothing. Yea...and he walk endlessly just like me, except that I do have my limits.

Its seems that the friend that I have always yearn for, one that would actually chill with me when Im bored is always around me. I think its cuz hes free as his exams are over, for now.

Recently, we went to the IT show and this was what we took home...

Alright man! That guy at the back was nice enough to loan us their weapons for the picture...haha...

Hanging around is great...at least it beats thinking too much. Stuff just comes back to me...good ones that is which deem it rather haunting cuz its hard to move on...oh well.

Working hard...

2008-03-06T08:46:00.000-08:00

My my...I haven't been blogging much...cuz im really packed up with my project 1 production...I am so busy that I am rarely at home. Even if I am, I will be watching Bleach(I just started watching it a week ago)...or I just spent my time thinking on how to create new graphics or concepts for the future.

I guess things have been moving very slowly except for the fact that I got a new Hp Laptop! Wow! Finally after like 1 year of waiting. Realy gotta thank my uncle and parents...they provided me well...Thank God

However, I am still not used to using the keypad and the touch mouse thingy...Argh...Like a friend of mine said...1 word "Cui"

Oh well...just hope that the mission teams of crusade are doing well.

Sometimes, I think too much about stuff even when I am so caught up in production and Bleach and friends.

Don't judge animae in a different light just cuz they are not so realistic, sometimes I think that their ideas are pretty awesome! The graphics can be as good too!

I have to keep up with the flow, gotta learn how to socialise better.

Gotta stop being random...at least I think I am.

Look forward...to greater days ahead.

The Leap Years...

2008-03-02T06:28:00.000-08:00

A promise to meet every 4 years...

I watched the leap years yesterday and I thought that it left an impression on me...oh yea...The show was great.

Well...one thing for sure about that show is the great execution in the framing of shots...I was like wow...its so...Good.

The other thing about it is that the Love story is not as cliche as I thought it would be after all. I kind of like the way the story was told, like jumping back and forth across the time frame of 4 leap years. They didn't even leave out subtle feelings that aren't as important, I think it was this that made the feel of the movie pretty real.

However, the one thing I do not like is the change in artistes as they age, I mean like, it would have been better it the original artistes remained with just some make up to give the aging feel. After all, they didn't really age that much.

The original feel I had for the trailer compared to the movie was rather different. I kinda like the feel of the trailer better I guess...kinda weird and its hard to elaborate. Overall, I think that the shows really good. I would recommend people to watch it. However, be attentive in the feel of the show for if you don't get it, then I am afraid it wouldn't turn out as good. For a Singapore film, I think its ones of the rare few that I have seen.

People should really watch the real deal before even giving comments like wannabes, copyright, it sucks, no don't watch it and etc. Even the trailer itself to get such attention. I guess that is what I call good advertising, see, it sets people thinking after watching it.

Waiting is really and indeed courageous and strong...to wait for the right one...

Oh well...we can't really stop the expressions can we?

Credits

2008-02-25T10:06:00.000-08:00

I feel that it's nice to be given credits for something good you've done...Especially when its done for a great cause. In my case. I would prefer the term, support.

However, it seems that the closest to me, the one whom I see everyday, whom I respect and fear, is of the utmost not encouraging...This is just an assumption...then again, its from my point of view and how I felt when the person portrayed these feelings to me.

I do not boast of the deeds that I have done but rather, I yearn for support from my close ones for what I've done. Things did not went the way I thought it would. Maybe I was naive in thinking so. Even so, the reasons for disapproving subtly weren't the right reasons.

Half-hearted behaviour have set in and is often destructive. I can't agree more. What I could have done was to see things from the idividuals perspective but then again, would the point of view render to be beneficial? I beg to differ.

I know the truth and I tried to express it but I was rejected and rebuked. I understand goodness and saraifice and I intend to be what I was made to be by grace. I guess I do not need support, after all, I got a bigger one.

I set my eyes on treasures above, I expericenced transformation, I believe in miracles. All in Christ.

I was Loved

2008-02-24T10:22:00.001-08:00

I was Loved...

Good day turned Bad

2008-02-23T10:30:00.000-08:00

Today was supposedly a good day...All the way till night falls...

I was going home from a great youth conference that Ben told me about(Hey Ben)...and yea...so I did...It was freaking far...ACSI!!!

It far from where I live, but oh well...

It ended pretty late and I had dinner and made my way home.

So far so good, until the lsat train back home went away in my face!

What in the world! I was just right in front of the tapping machine...Lucky I had Jerome with me so we took a cab home...Mid-night double charge...loaned from Jerome

I was waiting in the cab all the way...

I had to talk to someone...

Then it occured to me that the phrase "I will always be there for u" wasn't easy to be done at all...

Backed home...Mom talked about money...I was reprimanded for all the right reasons...

I don't care...I am using my Money right and I won't apologise...thats the way I am...

Stand to your ground for the right reasons.

Apologise immediately when wrong.

Simple and logical mideset of mine...

Its the end of the day that makes my day

What can I say? I had a bad day.

StayOver

Just came back from Greg's house after staying over to finish up our pre-production in Project1...

Can't believe I didn't sleep much on a Friday...well...I left in the afternoon heading for the Airshow by the black knights today...It all started when Greg's parents were kind enough to give Raj & I, 2 tickets to the show.

Raj couldn't make it...so that just means I got 2 tickets...wow...not...

I'm grateful for the tickets but at the same time, I was feeling tired and people are not free to go with me...luckily I got a bro to come with me...thanks

However, as I was late, we missed the whole show...in addition, I spent 11.40 just to cab there...No wonder they are Black Knights...always on time...ok wait...is there a link to that?

whatever...

Anyway...Im feeling tired & Cui-ed* now...just slacking around looking for entertainment...

I need motivation & Joy people...

*Cui - the similar term to "cmi" or rather, very (nuar)*

"cmi" - can't make it

(nuar) - soft, lazy, lethargic, don't feel like doing anything

wow this is fun...

Valentine

2008-02-14T10:44:00.000-08:00

V-day...wow...it's like my first time to officially celebrate it...I kinda like that feeling...

I made a card...using Photoshop...I thought it was the best work I have done so far.

I think the streets of the central business were being invaded by couples...they are like everywhere...

V-day is definitely a lovely day...however I feel sadness seeping in between the gaps of legs that fills the streets...

Its an occasion some will hate, some lonely & some that don't even care about it.

I pity them somehow...felt that I could do something about but I didn't.

Oh well...I had my V-day...I think it was alright.

Went to catch the latest Jack Neo production...Ah Long pte ltd...I thought that it was pretty funny...

3.5/5 stars

There's this new movie, "The Leap Years"...It gave me an unexplainable feeling...Its like to love in a dream & waking up to find out that the perfect love was nothing in reality.

"It's better to have love & lost than to have never Loved at all"

What a phrase...I find that the word love is being too generally & widely used...

Its as though the meaning of the word has lost its "aura" or power...

So the next time when you love someone...say it with conviction or even better...invent a new word for that expression...I prefer to say it with conviction...

Anyway...Hope that everyone had a unique Valentine's day...Mine was pretty special.

Peace & ILoveAnastacia

Updates so far

2008-02-11T09:04:00.000-08:00

Gong Sek Fatt Choi(canto- style)...

I think that the only thing I would say in I'm trapped in Hong Kong this time of the year...

Yes! its new year...Happy Chinese New Year everyone(yes..ian...u too)....I think its the most fruitful and the most boring Chinese New Year so far...

Why fruitful?

Ang Baos...they are the only thing that really matter cuz I realised that I'm growing older and someday...I would be the one giving the Ang Bao's alrdy...Also...I'm saving up for my future...awesome...

Boring?
Same reason every year...gamble...mahjong(I don't even get it till now)...wow...ways of socialising...I think of it as a nicer way to excuse ourselves this time of the year...oh well...what can I say? I played some cards...Won some money...but then again...if I had a better alternative like just sitting in Starbucks & chilling...my my...that would be awesome...of course..with good friends that is.

I think the best part of this season is to just hang around with friends...just like how we Moi ppl did...went to catch a Movie...some watch Sweeny Todd...the others like me watch CJ7...it was rather disappointing I must say...I expected a lot more from Stephen Chow...oh well

Then we had dinner and went to He-Pan...somewhere near The Esplanade...cool...They have got lots of food...rides...and people...It was swarming with people there...

we took great rides WOOO!!! TOP GUN...haha

and of course...we took pictures...well I only got a few...but theres one which is nice...cuz it was totally random...

The totally random shot

Group Pics...we look so good...haha

thats me...TRYING to smile and look good

Chinese New Year!

2008-02-05T09:01:00.000-08:00

I am BACK FROM DESIGN ORIENTATION TRAINING CAMP!!! WOOOO...
(That was what I wanted to say like 5 days ago... -_-)

I met great friends like crys, ben...the rest of those whom I noe...we bonded closer...and those that I have not...hehe...lets have an outing!!!

Revyn is the best, cuz we are too good aiyo *clap clap* bu chuo

I was too tired to post that day..and I haven been free for the past few days...so yea...I was MIA...

Anyway...Chinese New Year is coming in 2 days time, Have all of u bought ur New clothes?

I noe I did...and I took 1 freaking day just to get a top & a Jeans...Most time is spent on Le' Jeans...cuz there isn't any nice and decent jeans to wear these days...oh well...at least I got a very awesome one...

Have been pretty busy on my project 1 these few days...today was presentation...We had everything down...but we forgot to emphasise on content...argh...but nvm...our group is a heck of a group...Crewsade.inc...Cool right...we rock big time...

I am lazy to post...HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR ALL...I am a happy man

God have been kind to me...He understands me well...He grants my needs & desires...I shall not be in want...

Thanks be to God

Today was Nice

2008-01-30T07:13:00.000-08:00

I gotta say that today is a very good day...Well...cuz

- I finally been to sugarloaf(always wanted to go there since last year)

- Theres only 1 class for today(means I can slack)

- I had nice company

- The Sm interview was pretty much good

- God is there and still here for me...always...

I always thought that it would take ages for God to answer a prayer...Looks like I was terribly wrong...GOD is good...even when he doesn't really answer your prayer the way u wanted...cuz he noes whats better for u...

I thank God for my yet-to-come blessings...Amen...

Peace & Love

Good & Bad day

2008-01-28T06:56:00.000-08:00

Today was a good day...I was pretty excited about Project 1...Well cuz we can work in groups...I had great members...although I wished that there could be more people in it...

God is really great...he granted me Nick today...I was looking for someone to fill my evening...and was thinking about the people I would wanna see...

As I strolled along the walkway towards the entrance...there came Nick...standing there with his friends...seems like he needed company too...

Had a great time sharing stuff & planning for the future...Talked about lots of stuff.

And on my way back, God granted me my desire again...

But then...I dunno why...Instead of feeling happy...I felt for the worse...Was pretty down. However, Nick won't let that happen...His Gift of talking really encouraged me somehow...Thanks man...

Oh God,

If the doors are meant to be closed...let them be closed...if not...open it wider so that I would know & acknowledge your decisions.

Amen

Thanks be to God...once again you granted me my wants....and again you showed me that not everything that goes my way...would make my day...

Letting go

2008-01-26T08:09:00.000-08:00

Its finally over...after a week of painting for 2d art final assignment...Im free...and so proud of my work...

My idea is based on the crucifixion of Christ...from the side view & in a more abstract way...I thought to myself that since I got no art background & its my first time, I try to be ambitious & do something thats totally new...

Instead of just plain painting & toning skills, I decided to apply the art of silhouette drawing & vectors...Well nobody have ever thought of that idea before...so I thought I might wanna try it out...

The results?

AWESOME!!! I can't believe I finally did it...I thank God that he gave me the determination & strength to finish it...Im not going to post it here though...hehe...want to see more PM me =)

Yes...I know that some ppl cannot appreciate it...what can I say? Art is subjective...even famous artistes gets criticised...I shouldn't feel bad. =)

During my time of peace in painting...I have been thinking a lot...like how important are the people around me...my faith...and letting things go...

For people around me...I would like to thank you all for making a difference in my life...

I will still stand strong in God in faith & obedience(trying hard)

Things that have been left hanging for too long...if there is no more turning point...I might as well just let it go...

As my old literature book once quoted something like that...

"I die to get out of the hurt to live again..."

Its time to let wounds heal

Good Day

2008-01-23T09:37:00.000-08:00

Today or more like yesterday was a good day...not great but good...

- I got my VPres Final assignment done
- I finished 60% of my im by 1m Painting...of christ

AND my highlight of the day...Live(Crusade) meeting! Yay!

Well...LM are always fun and beneficial...even though yesterday was the last LM till I dunno when...but I took back a lot of understanding from that 2 hour session on Coupleship...basically...it sums up most of the stuff on relationships & problems of it...

What I learnt or rather understand...

- The word Love has been over used, therefore, not really being understood totally the
different kinds of Love exist

- There is only Lust at first sight

- Looks aren't everything...character is...

- Love means you're WILLING to ACCEPT the other individual for who they are

- Set boundaries in a relationship in terms of intimacy(To some extent)

- The Guys should Lead in a relationship...So they are held responsible for everything

- To prefer Sweetness & Romance...or rather...Truth & Character

- Its not self-seeking but sacrificing

- Its not about who is the RIGHT one for you...but are YOU the RIGHT one for that someone

- Do romance sometimes...

- A level of maturity to be able to Commit

- Not willing to commit doesn't mean not loving enough
eg. Mental barriers, not matured or ready, etc...

- Love is about both sides compromising...

- Never resort to breaking up...solve problems willingly...preferably on the same day problem was created...Resulting in stronger Understanding & Trust.

- Love is always blessed if God is put first...
- Imagine 2 balls attached to a rope
- Thrown towards an anchor or a pole
- It would get hooked cuz of the rope in the middle
- It will keep on tying itself round the pole till the 2 balls meet and touch each other

Finally...Love prevails

To think I am able to remember so much even without notes and even to add in pointers & examples of my own...I must have really learnt a lot...To those who have read...I hope it benefits u...

1 cor 13 : 13
- And now these three remain: faith. hope & love. But the greatest of all is love.

Peace out

Happy Skin

2008-01-21T08:16:00.000-08:00

Im happy...cuz I finally got my BlogSkin changed...I think it was after like half a year of complaints...All thanks be to Sabrina...took the effort to changed it...The only good I did to my blog is the CrapBoX...haha...now I know how to do it...

Why Orange?

Cuz I like Orange...Its a happy & jubilant colour...If I were to say that u are Orange...well...thats what it means...

Cuz I prefer to be happy than being Emotive...

Cuz I just like the vector design with the orange...Desired Blogskin...haha...

Im still being stressed by final assignments though, but I will get through it...

"I try to live out the idea that it is better to be HONEST than momentarily COOL."

Thanks Ian...Its how I like me to be...=)

Thank God...

I am myself

2008-01-19T07:42:00.000-08:00

Well...sometimes...people often expect u to have this quality or be more of this and that...but then again...if u did...that wouldn't be u anymore...I do have weaknesses and pleasing is not really what I am good in...if i say something...it would offend people...if i don't...i offend people too...so what do i do in this situation...advice me...

I can accept ppl for who they are...but do ppl do the same? I can comfort...but pleasing is a lil hard...if i was taught to accept people for being themselves...then shouldn't the teacher do the same?

I am trying very hard to aplease but for every move i make...even the most picayune(simple or little) faults will be picked on...Will it be fair then for that I did not do to others...My approach of concern is different and giving advices is in my blood...but then...the motive of caring does not differ from others...its the same

No one in this world can aplease everyone when even God himself can't...

Stressed

2008-01-17T08:37:00.000-08:00

STRESS is really taking its toll this week...I am so helpless now...Just gotta pray hard and draw strength from the lord cus that is what I will be drawing about...

Crusade & DG meetings can be easily said the highlight of my week today...I seriously got nothing much to look forward to...

As for now...I am in the midst of being Joy-filled, random tiredness & clinging on to a glimpse of hope...Things might be tough for now...but still I will survive...

I sometimes am so disoriented that I can't tell the difference between Gina & Germaine(they are twins)...its not hard to tell them apart...

Cuz u are the sun in my universe

Consider the best when u felt the worse

But most of all...

Its built to last

I need inspiration...rest...peace...& love...oh God grant them all...

I have a dream

2008-01-12T23:46:00.000-08:00

Finally...a real proper sleep after 2 weeks...wow...I am so glad that I had a good rest yesterday...even though my work is like piling up...Well...its been long since I dreamt and I had a dream last night...

Eveything was normal...and I was happy...in my house...with my family...and I was doing some stuff that I don't really know...and there...just beside me...and we got along like normal...the things we use to talk about & laugh at...The things said that created joy & warmth...

Then I woke up...feeling happy...and realised it wasn't reality...I realised that it was a good dream turned bad...I dunno how other feel about it but I get this type of dreams often...and when you wake up...It just a dream...literally...

Church was good today...I was so touched by the Holy spirit during worship...but I can't help but to control my emotions...for I do not want to just burst out crying...not my style...

The message given was having a heart for God...he is our first love...and I felt like I haven't been realising that...Now...I try to put all my negative emotions down...and give it to the lord...for as the song "so you would come" goes...

Broken hearts, broken lives...he will take them all...

Oh well(Thats what I learnt to say when everything goes wrong and I try to not be bothered about it)....

I have a dream...a song to sing...

Not Good...

2008-01-10T06:24:00.000-08:00

I finally got some rest...slept rather well yesterday...at 1 am...see how work deprive me of sleep? I thank God that I can sleep at 1...I thank god that he helped me with my work and gave me strength to survive the week...

It had been rather hectic...oh well...what can I say...I Chose this course...I still enjoy being in it cuz of the satisfaction of my work...still honing my drawing skills though...

I Thank God that I have friends...but sometimes...its really hard to get a real friend...1 that u look forward to hang with...1 whom I can relate to...Im sure a friend like that will come 1 day.

Theres always choices in life...there is no such thing as no choice...for its ours to make for every single path we take...

when...u go, would u even turn to say..."I don't love u...like I did...yesterday..."

Lost

2008-01-06T09:06:00.000-08:00

Sometimes I feel lost...Like in a sense trying to do something...When I something that is deemed not correct...Im in the wrong...but when u try to do the right thing...it seems as if I am also wrong...

Sometimes keeping peace is important...so much so that I don't say anything...cuz its a type of fear...its not a nice feeling...wow...keeping peace becomes a fear of something...what can I say anymore?

Sometimes I try to make people feel better...but then it ends up the other way round...

Sometimes I try being humble & listen...but nothing is spoken

I dunno what to do sometimes...I think I need help...and a ear that is willing to listen...and not take offence in what I have to say...Im human too...I need some grace...

God please grant me extend grace...and teach me to do what is right...Tell me what is right & what is wrong...so I can be firm & stand my ground for the right cause...

Good days ahead?!

2008-01-04T20:58:00.000-08:00

Thanks be to God...for his grace...amen

The start of the new term really eats up alot of my time & money..literally...Just doing an assignment can cost u half of your allowancne...that is if u don't claim from your parents...

Im currently doing Visual Pre & 2D art now...gotta say that its not one of the best modules to be put in a month but i guess i'll just have to draw strenght from God and carry on...

Have been staying up late for the past 2 days cutting & painting...Its a wow cuz sleep is really important to me...although I was tired, I did had some fun in the process.

I think I should start saving up for the future...i realised that I even have to think when it comes to buying my needs...can't let that happen anymore...might wanna try to invest..but then again...i don't have the mind for business...after all, I prefer the carefree(tiring) design life...

Then again...I don't think i will need to worry..God will provide...I invest on it...

Did i mention that Jy was at my house chilling & doing our assignment...haha..so funny...Ying wei Pi Jiu Shang Sheng Ti(with that freaky head turn)

Note to self: As much as possible...eat cheap...

What was lost have been returned again...Yay...

Peace Out

Hear my Prayer

2008-01-02T08:07:00.000-08:00

Hear me my lord...

I thank you for your grace & mercy...to bring my joy in times of my agony...but lord...I need you to fill the void in me, to help me find what i lost due to my own deliberate fault.

I am torn, I wear happy faces...sometimes i take them off.

But lord, u see through me...i ask of you that your love will grant me strength for if u have mentioned it many times in your word, I am sure u really mean it...

I pray that u will forgive my for my trangressions...and take my pain away...for what i do not see in me, you see & understand more than me myself. Thank you for your grace...and the people that u have put around me.

May i recover what i have lost...

in Jesus name i pray...amen

God Loves Us All

2007-12-28T23:49:00.000-08:00

R-E-A-L~

Im Back from Metamorphorsis camp and Thank God, it was great...though I only attend the later half of the camp...Well it taught me many things...especially Dr Dave Park's sermons. He emphasizes on things that we normally read & hear about the gospel to much detail, revealing what we had missed out.

The World often makes lies about we are what we are from the things we do...Thats not true...its what God did for us that counts...I say with conviction that The act of Jesus' death is what that counts...He Gave his life & Took our sin & lies...Can you say the same?

I was lucky to not miss out my workshop on handling emotions...I guess it pretty much impacted me, teaching me how to help others as well...

This suddenly daunted upon me...when was the last time u wanted to help someone but didn't dare to? Sometimes we try to help but then we are shy and stuff, I would feel that way...but its this act of concern and kindness that changes the world...so just Pay It Forward...

I missed out on my leaders track...it was a pity...but then again...not all is lost...at least I managed to take something home...A lot of reality & Truth...The people that acknowledges God are geniuses...people that deny the truth do not have the wisdom...I mean its stupid to say that the world is square when we all know the fact that its round right? haha...Lets all be a genuis today, tomorrow and forever...

The world is Real...
So is God.

This is John(The Baptist) -->

Me, Ben(mentor) and John(Baptist...who knows, he might really be one after all!)

Merry Christmas

2007-12-24T08:17:00.000-08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS...

Its Christmas...Time of Giving, Peace & Joy...but I don't feel the joy...I have just been discharged today...Thank God for that...I wouldn't wanna celebrate Christmas in a ward...

Settled at home and WAS feeling a lil joyous...that didn't last...I once heard a story of a boy that wanted a teddy bear for Christmas...bla bla bla...ok en the end he didn't get it and was sad. I thought to myself, its just a bear, whats is there to cry over about?

Well...I realised today that it may just be a toy in my eyes, but in that kid, it meant alot to him, like a treasure. I could feel how sad he was, the emotion toll that was going on in him...he must have had a bad Christmas...

Sometimes, things that dont matter to us matters alot to others. So I learnt a lesson today. I learnt to put in the extra effort or penny just to make someones day for that, might be all that they ever wanted. It might be just a fraction of a second or and extra effort, maybe it would cost more in money sense, but then again, its all worth it once u see the smile on their faces.

My ideal Christmas maybe dashed, stepped upon and torn to the ground but then again, I wouldn't wanna destroy peoples Christmas mood...so Have A Merry Christmas To Everyone

We might just make someones Christmas, Its always better to give than to receive...so can someone put a smile on my face?

Ill and fallen...

2007-12-19T02:29:00.000-08:00

Im sick...all cuz of the freaking air con at work...darn cold...

I hope I wont miss tmr's final day of church camp...

Argh...hate being sick...especially major ones...

GroundBreaking

2007-12-05T08:37:00.000-08:00

Halo...Im back from Groundbreaking camp and I love it!!! It was simply awesome!!

The first day there and I was already have fun play soccer with the guys there...Its like this sense of family likeness. We did a group flag (nameless) I knew some kids there and they were taught to play Bang by Wen Hao...Bad move cuz I couldn't sleep all night...haha...but I guess it was part of the fun...

The second day became better as I to communicate with even more people...There was this Dancexerise thing that we had to do and it was new to me...I enjoyed it however. I really got to give it to pastor Steven...he baptised me in the holy spirit and now I can pray in tongues...how cool is that? Its one of the most awesome events that took place...to me of course... =)

Haha...the 3rd day was the treasure hunt...It was held at sentosa...we had a good start by tricking the others down their ride and reaching the first 2 stations first...but yea in the end...we were outbeaten by a simple mistake...it doesn't mattter cuz in the end...no one completed the race due to time constrtain...haha then we came up we a skit for the night...after that we had the mass dance...dancing in the moonlight...

Back to camp after that...beat and worned out...Wen Hao and I decided we should not sleep and just fellowship with people since its our last day there...along then we got to know more ppl like Serene, Sam(Black bro), Joseph and Mabel. Then its just talking from dust to dawn.

The last day...we packed up and got ready to leave...had some group pics with all the campers...and left...BUT the fun was not over yet...Some of us went to watch the Hitman...nice show with deep storyline...Wen Hao Alex and Justin fell asleep...haha so funny...they kinda like regretted it...Then we dined at subway and traveled serparate ways...Man...I just wish that...I could like hang with them more often...so fun...

Inner struggle

2007-11-26T07:12:00.000-08:00

Today was a good day...filled with inner struggles...

2-4pm

Met up with friends...happy...shopped around without buying anything. Waited for more ppl to come...a lil in the rush cuz we haven bought the tickets...

4-6pm

Surprised...happier...went around talked...then found out a sad fact and a broken agreement(something which I cannot handle very well). Mood turned the other way round...was disappointed and sad. So much so that turned away...I didn't know what to say...What can i say...?

6-9pm

Watched a show...brightened my mood...cant put that feeling down though...still it didn't matter...who am I to say what's right and what's wrong? was reminded again about the misses...

Its not my future Why should i bother so much? Why poke my nose in other peoples business? Why try when I noe it doesn't at all matter to that person? Jem...why so kapo?

I don't get anything from being concerned...I don't want rewards...but look what happens when u try to tell others what right and what's not...U get shunned and people won't talk to u...even though u started it...

10pm

Whatever...can't think...don't wanna care...what for? Its still will happen...people don't listen to you...wake up...

Now

Shag...need a bath...chill & forget it...

There i said it...wow...i feel so much more relieved...Why keep it in you when u got a blog...zzz

Good evening...my name is Jem...how do u do?

Learning Jap is so cool...yet another dream come true...but its only the basic...not really enough to understand the real animae Jap lang...haha...but I guess its ok...

I have been real busy lately...with God...her...Jap & animation...of course...my dear friends too...haha...

I just realised that Haha...is mother in Jap...can u imagine...all the haha comments made...its like calling mother when something is funny...yea...what great sense of humour my mum have....Just deducted 20 for over using my Hp...

Its ok...I guess God will provide...getting deeper into the word is easy...but applying is hard. I guess we all have to take time. I want to live my life as a good example...so that people will see the light...

Holidays are coming...schedule is packed on the 3rd week...so I might work for extra income on the first & second...

Nothing much...need new blogskin though...people are on a demand for it...and one willing to help me with java?

Ja mata

I felt & fell

2007-11-06T08:36:00.000-08:00

Its easy in the beginning
Its fun in the start
It feels very piercing
When things fall apart

Who to seek help from
Where do we start
Why do we choose from
The worse things in our heart

The things that made it hard
Are failed attempts to express
The feelings now is depressed
Robbing the peace, creating unrest.

Worries & Solution

2007-10-30T08:51:00.000-07:00

I got so many things to worry about...so little time to think.

- Aunts wed...gonna miss classes

- Miss classes = miss important NOTES!!!

- OTC & Church Chalet date clash...God

- My spendings...need to save

- Lack of sleep

- No time practise my guitar

- Need time

- Church stuff?

- Deadlines...not yet but soon

....And the best solution? Don't Think About It.
-quoted from Min

The Sky so high the pigs cant fly

2007-10-23T09:07:00.000-07:00

I noticed that the sky today was great...then I took out a cam and shot the sky...It was awesome...The clouds moving in masses...of course...u can't see it in pictures...so the only way is to either video it or the old fashion first hand experience..I would chose the 2nd one...

Sometimes life is just like the clouds...Theres the fluffy white clouds & of course, the dark ominous clouds...God made things fair...he create both sides or more of everything...its always one way or another. We, especially me....would love the fluffy white clouds...its where we all look and and say...the weather is good...however...it doesn't always last...if it does...the plants will die...this is where the dark ominous clouds comes in...to water the plants and of course in certain parts of the world...water supply.

If u set aside time everyday just to marvel at God's creations...u would realise he too speaks his word in it...He shows us both sides of everything...just like how evil exist too...even though the world will be better off without it...I have not gone to the part in explaining why evil exist...maybe one day...I will...

Back the the clouds...I once glanced past a photography book on clouds but this Jap guy...his photos were awesome...even in the darkest clouds...I had my fair share of sky shots...but they aren't as good...what more can u expect from a hp cam...

The world is like the clouds...theres 2 sides of everything...whatever path u take...leads to a different direction there are no guarantees...the only certain thing in life is death & taxes...

back to the pics...some from the quite recent previous post...

We basically had fun and slacked at Eric's aunt's house...it was as if its a resort...yea...fun and food comes in a pack...I like his aunt's way of thinking...shes cool...so is his Uncle...cheeky fellow... =)

Today(yesterday...time), was good too...played tennis and wanted to swim(wanted)...haha...Eric was nice to cook mee sua for me...haha...I was hungry. Then the nice people arrived...met a new friend...Gwen...haha...

Halo...Busy Busy & Fun?

Its has been a busy week for me as I had to get started on my Photography final project...Yea...2 weeks of it...Sometimes life's a breeze...then it turns hectic...while everyone's enjoying their holidays...Im here getting busy...haha...but I guess its ok since I am enjoying what I am doing now...

So far...there has been good days and bad days...but there will always be someone that would somehow brighten up ur day...Thank God for that.

The verse of the week : Bear no grudges...forgive with a discerning heart. =)

So anyway...my week was not very smooth...lots of emotional distractions from things not worth mentioning. Other than that...things are pretty much well...In my case...I would take a rather longer time to forget...since Im to the emotional side...lets not get cheezy about it...

I have recently found a great interest in playing with vector art using adobe...its not really a good programme for it but i guess I don't have much of a choice...I am also more comfortable with it...haha. (I hope this don't get on google search page...after all i have some rather unpleasant experience.)

The best day I had so far was Sun I guess...since I experienced some performance and a great dinner with Crusaders!!! Yay!!! I dunno why...but its always fun with them and worshipping God is taken to a whole new level...God I Thank u for the friends that u have bestowed around me...specials ones especially. =)

Not gonna post my work here...cuz I am afraid google might add it with its internet cameras...wth!

ciao~ (ignore the random colour of the title...its random sia...haha )

Halo...Top 10 weird moments of me..

Yea...weird rite? suddenly so random...got 1 topic like this pops outta nowhere....well actually got reason...ye noe what I mean(min)...haha =)

1. I can think of a 100 things in a minute & doing some normal daily life stuff at the same time...in this case, no one would even know what I am thinking...sometimes I doubt myself too...

2. I don't drink soft drinks, eat fries or dry ration...some people thinks I am a freak...

3. I got weird sleeping positions...Jy stop laughing at me....you too Min...

4. I don't read...does that counts as weird? Dunno...don't care...

5. I tell jokes that no one understand most of the time...so I will be the only one laughing...haha

6. I have to listen to music on public transport...so that means I love trips to places solo...

7. I sleep facing right...though I am left-handed...personal preferences I guess

8. I can squirt water from beneath my tongue...cool right?

9. I can't pronounce "T' properly

10. I don't know why I am writing this post....but still carrying on with it...

Finally...a picture

The orange of my eyes...was supposed to be apples...haha =)

Halo...Thanks giving...and rants...(contradicting)

Blogging for the not for the sake of Min...well...maybe she's right in updating....nonono...I did it for my sake...yea...thats rite...what was I thinking...Well...a new block starts for me...the first day of the block was kinda like the worst day in my Tp life...yet...

I was running late for that the first class(starts at 9) on Monday...the bus arrived...yay...Wooo...saved. Wait! Wheres my wallet...and watch? Craphole...ran back home to grab it...had no choice. Upon reaching the first lesson...the lec alrdy noes me..." You are Jem rite? The guy in the pictures?" If only you knew what he was talking about...cuz I was a subject in my friend's final assignment...which was taught by him...

Class over...a lot of stuff learnt...and I have to get a cam by Wed...Jesus Christ...I need a cam...

Slacked & chilled at canteen & library...then went for the next class which was a joke...we were required to present terms of technical words commonly used in Moi...no idea...gave crap...laughing stock for the senior...embarrassed...

Today...Was still a lil late for class...He ranted about us being irresponsible & unwilling to learn...i mean come on...I love taking great pics...that went on for an hour before lesson started...

While my friends we frantically trying to rent their cams...I was having a hard time choosing 1 as my mum had the ability to get me 1...Thank God...THANKS A LOT!

Chilled with Yan & friends...they are a fun bunch...envy

Had that lesson again...however, I was rather enthusiastic in it as it taught the funs of photoshop...yea man...

Came home...checked out the new cam only to find out that there's a flaw in the LCD screen...crap...can't use it for tomorrow as it has to be exchanged...how? haiz...lord...show me the way....

2007-08-17T11:29:00.000-07:00

Halo...Idea block is over

Due to some rushing of projects, I haven't been blogging recently. Well, since it ends today...I shall then get back to work(blog)...

Been a busy man...taking photos, designing gift wrappers, being a critique and loads of other stuff u can imagine a designer would be doing. Alright...I see that your not convinced, let me show u some pics...(if this is a diary that no one reads, I am so crazy talking to myself)...

Hey! This is a pic of Designers Pad

Finally, I love this 1....dunno what its called but its in Tp

All these are great shots that I kinda prayed for...with great lightings & perspective...Thank God...well...About today(Fri) nothing much...went to chill with Jy & Min at Ikea...it was fun...just that we did not get to eat the meat balls...then headed to cell...I must say that after all that I am totally shagged out...but what am I still doing so late in this hour...?

Dunno...gonna sleep soon...praying for good days ahead... =)

2007-08-08T08:48:00.000-07:00

Halo...Back after blog break...

I thought I needed a break from blogging after so many events that took place, leaving me worn and tattered. I guess its time to spill the events that took place here for memory keepsake...I do refer to my previous posts =)

Sat

After the period of mourn...I just cast it all aside and went to the Festival Of Praise(FOP)...Met up with Ben, Ethel, Wen Hao & grace that day...Headed to the indoor stadium late in spite of us taking a cab...Luckily Asriel(another crusader that i just get to know recently) had guest seats available...thus we got to enjoy Delirious & Moen's art of singing on some of the best seats in the house! They were great! I am starting to like Delirious now(not that I Don't like them before)...and Don Moen's classic Christian music. That was not all...I also experienced the best message in my entire Christian life...so far(hope 2008 FOP would be better).

Sun

As usual...went to church...had jammed there...felt the vibes of learning the guitar...It was then I realised that I don't wanna be the jack of all trade...but a master of none... I wanna be the master of Drums! Aiming towards my goal so that I can 1 day...serve God in the music ministry...I am sure God would be pleased...

Headed to FOP again...haha this time with Jy & his cell...I met alot of new friends there & I would like to thank God for all my friends...I really treasure them a lot & can't afford to lose any....or drift away from them. Anyway...the last night of FOP was great...I still think Sat was better... =)

After that, Left Jy & his group the meet with Crusaders...I just love chilling with them...had our mid-night dinner, joked around and headed home...Thank God for that day too.

Mon

I chose the colour yellow...cuz I watched The Simpsons that day!!!! "Spider-Pig, Spider-pig, does wateva a Spider-pig does. Can he swing, from a web? No he can't hes a pig. Look out! Look out for Spider-Pig!" The Show was down right hilarious.

After the show, we went to shop...oh yea we as in Clint, Jill, Greg & me. I couldn't buy anything for myself as I was reserving the cash for Greg's Optimus Prime...Yea the class got it for his Birthday. Nothing much happened after that though...still slacking on my assignment.

Tue

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GREG!!! And we presented him his present...boy was he happy....well glad hes happy...At least I know that my effort did pay off. Toyed with his Prime before he could even touch it...haha...Jy and I were like trying to figure out the complexity of its transformation...no wonder hes changes so lag...enemy attack le his leg still haven change finish...head still haven pop out.

Wed(Today...no wait...its Yesterday...darn...after mid-night liao)

Had lesson today as usual...Lamed with Jy(its an everyday thing for us...just enjoy lamming with one of my best friends in class)...& headed for the final day of Crusade meeting for this semester. I was the earliest...joined Amber & Irene with their discussion while I had my lunch...Then the few other crusaders came...and we had our activity...Had fun with Jasper Ethel, Joelle and Esty...and Ivan...haha...as we were sitting in a place far from each other. What fun is it to sit far from each other? Well the structure of that area was built in a way that we could hear each other like we're just sitting right beside each other...haha...Worship was great...

After the meeting, Wen Hao tried to do some Pakour stunt...well lets just say that I had a part in it too...and it was fun! Ben was like..."my disciple(me) can do it, so can I!" and we all did it...haha...felt so victorious after doing it! Then had lunch and went home...Glenn gave me a lift in the cab...thanks a lot!

I realised that Crusade is the only place whereby ur relationship with ur friends there always stays...cuz we don't separate...I really love chilling and hanging with Crusaders...Its one of the best things in poly life...Thou shall not be selfish & keep the joy to myself...Lets Spread the joy!!! =)

[Good-Bye Amber....Thanks for everything...=)]

2007-07-30T09:56:00.000-07:00

.....Departed

Its amazing how God work in miraculous way just before he took her to his kingdom...she was all along a practitioner of Tao...but suddenly...as if a 180 turn...she accepted his love...beared his words & remained in his love.

There's a love no one could replace...given through a simple phone call...hearing her favourites. She will do anything...Her life wasn't the best before...but now she's having a life no mortal realms can ever provide. There's no need sadness & tears...instead, rejoice & praise El Elyon. For anyone who remains in him as he remains in him...would bear much fruit...apart from him...you can do nothing.

Her name is not written in the death note but in the book of life...what lies beyond is the everlasting kingdom.

Her name...

Halo...Reminiscing the good old days

Woke up as early as secondary school days to do what I use to do best...Badminton! I caught up with Shawn the day before and arranged a game today however the time slot was kinda bad...Brandon, Ck & Ho Fung were there too...haha...kinda like an alumni reunion of the Tpss badminton boys.

Its been long since I clench my fist and dive for shots...today was definitely a good day. After the game...had breakfast and when to visit the current badminton boys. they improved so much...I guess its due to their tough physical training.

Oh yea...Shawn gave me a cap for my very belated birthday...I gotta say...its my first cap...as I dont have to habit of capping...haha...but since I got one now...y not use it =)

Surprisingly, I kinda look aright wearing a cap...

Neat looking cap

Well...the end result.

Halo...I watched Transformers 2...

times. Haha...Shocked for a moment rite? I could imagine people going "HUH! Transformers 2? Where got...DVD ar..." Haha...alright...lets get serious. What I meant was that I watched it the 2nd time. Gotta admit, It still catches you even though you watched it before and anticipated what was gonna happen next...I was still awed by the awesome effects the 2nd time round but not blown off my seats...

After the show, Jy & I went down to the shop whereby they sell cool transformers figurines(oh yea...I watched it with JY...) and the price was also very cool. $99.90 for Optimus Prime...wow they really know when to rise to the occasion. Yes its cool to look at but then again...won't it bothers you if you get bored of it and just pushed it aside like how you did to your other toys when you were young? Then it goes like..."Ok...There goes my 100 bucks"...so 1 thing for sure...nice to look at...not nice to buy...unless someone gets it for you...that would be acceptable...haha...

Today was the 2nd lesson of Idea...Had to draw thing out of shapes...I guess its training us to brainstorm and apply whats applicable. Haven thought of much stuff though given the fact that they only give you a circle, a square & a triangle...Who knows what to draw out of it? Me lor...have to...in order to conform to the lec's expectation.

I gotta say...I am still bored...not sure of what...but just bored...gets very tired of stuff...no mood to joke(thats a serious problem)...can't get the funny in me out...I guess that what happens when your too cool that the world bores you(joke...I don't mean it). Well let's just hope that crusade will resume soon so at least I know for sure that its the 1 day of the whole week that I would be in the midst of God's people...I would never feel tired of bored with them...Thank God for the people in crusade....and my friends in Moi....and other companions too. =)

Halo...Monday blues in the night

Since the blues start in the night..lets re-cap what i did for today...Had the first Idea lessons, all that i could recall was how to draw lines....how to ask questions...problems to opportunities. Its not bad considered the fact that its the first lesson so far...hope it will proceed smoothly for the rest of the days since its the only module for the rest of this block...and it starts at 12. =)

Headed to Changi airport to Popeye's to celebrate clinc's Birthday...Well had a great time there...talking about stuff that are so random...making senseless jokes and owning Greg all the time...haha...that was fun. Good things don' last long as we headed our separate ways around 6. YES! That is when I start to get the blues...cuz I'm the type of "Go out after school and have fun" type of person...however to do this i need my friends along...but most of them live in the west so its kinda hard...

Now...still feeling the blues and a little tired...keep looking forward to the fun stuff in life but the higher you expect, the greater the disappointment. Its kinda like a mood swing for easily bored people like me...Oh man...I am really in need of entertainment besides the TV and my com...Somehow the Monday blues hit me hard...but not as hard as the Sat and Sun blues whereby I don't go anywhere but stay at home...i will get very pissed at night for no reason...haha...Im weird.

Bored Jem...out
(Photo from a google link...It's not bad eh? See...prove that I am bored)

Halo...boredom kills the living

would prefer go Back on my own space...Bored these few days...life after the hectic poly schedule is crap...nothing to do...Iing to campus everyday than to stay at home and stare into space. I can be easily bored...but i can also be easily entertained...like having a ps3 in my room would be great.Somehow...my Schedule is divinely planned as the boredom leads to me in inactive state and that leads me to sleep. i had been accompanying the owls and bats during my hectic week and finally, I sort of recuperated from the fatigue.

Nothing interesting happened and i hope class tmr will be interesting.Anyway...since I am here...HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLINTON!!!

I found out something interesting recently...That is...Google is really very efficient in its work. It might be just me lacking of internet knowledge but somehow it proved it efficiency...how? Its for me to know and for you to find out.

Halo....YES! The STRESS is OVER!

Haha...its finally the end of this block of 3D art Fundamentals & Drawing Essentials! The problems of using materials & bad shading & proportion is finally over today...The ironic part is that I can't bear to leave the lecturers Elfie, Zaihan & Ibsen. They were a great help in 3D, especially when it comes to thing that were simply out of context. THANKS be to them.

During this sem, I realised that i can actually draw well after all. All it takes were some sketches and the help of the 3 lecturers even though they are not teaching me Drawing...oh yea & also the stand in teacher. Ronald (PSK) left us to baleh kampong...can't really blame him though, news was that he had some crucial family problems back in Philippines. I have acquired the true attitude toward making a good work. Even though i feel that my final pieces for both modules weren't good enough, at least I learnt the arts of arts! Haha

Now since I am back to free life till next Mon, this would be what I will do...Get a haircut, hang in town, workout, find things to do & finally, continue drawing(I found the passion to draw).

Thats all for now...oh yea...trying to blog frequently le...i suddenly remembered something weird that happened to me while I was rushing my projects...It was like 4 in the morning and i was tired...so i decided to take an hour break on my study room couch. However, when I woke up, it was 10.20 am and i was on my bed! Weird right...none of my family members had the ability to carry my without leaving me unnoticed. I believe its god that made things happen in a strange way...to help me recuperate my strength....haha. Last but not least, my final designs ( look better in real)...

My Final Sculpture...'Glorious Last Moment'

A2 Final Drawing...'Man & Death'

Design Rock! =)

Halo...Leon's Departure

Its sad...he my bro in sch...and now hes leaving us all due to the sad fact that the army has no better things to do than to pull him into NS. I mean COME ON MAN! Hes still studying for god sake and don't you people always say studies come first...CrapHoles.! Brainless to apply that stupid new rule that defines all men must enter NS before the age of 21...to heck with your nonsensical rules, you just wasted 6 months of a person life!

Alright...now i am feeling better. Anyway...bro hope ur reading this man...Good Luck in everything. I really wish for a miracle to happen...

Tuesday

Met up with JY to get Leon & Shermin's Departure and Birthday presents respectively. It was kinda hard to choose their presents...Time was running out so we thought that a white beanie would make Leon happy...and in addition, a bullet shell chain...gives off the NS rowdy men kinda feel. Then it was Shermin's Birthday Present...A star-shaped necklace & a neat white top. Well...they sure loved their presents which really relived my heart...not sure for JY... i bet he feels the same way too...Celebrated Leon's "last supper" at PizzaHut. I was kinda broke by then as i have not collected the money from the class to as we were supposed to share $$ to buy the gifts. By dinner, Jasmine, Sam(Jas' friend), Leon, Greg & I were left...We ate happily & disgraced ourselves in public with Jasmine being too high...haha. Then chilled at the arcade...played some awesome games & there, we took our last glance at our dear friend & headed our separate ways.

Wednesday(Today)

Had lessons as usual however, our drawing essentials lec Ronald was MIA. A relief lec took over...shes a good artist, she showed us important pointers to take note & if she interacts better...she would make and excellent teacher. I had to rush to meet up with Ivan to practice leading worship for crusade! WOW!! leading worship man...first time & we were quite nervous...i did not have the time to meet with him...luckily, lessons on drawing were being conducted outside the campus thus, giving me a chance for him & I to practice as i sketch. Gotta really Thank God for helping me to arrange everything so perfectly and giving us courage and a chance to lead worship. It was a nervous feeling but it was awesome...we were like the first freshmen to lead in worship...felt very honoured. The best part about it was Ivan...the guitarist...omg hes so good that he can played without chords and change pitch of the songs...Great Going Ivan(future worship leader).

Well...thats all that I've done for now...working on my project on kinetic mobile & final sculpture. =)

Halo...Transformers!

Robots in disguise they say...how true they were...The movie...its a CRIME not to watch! It really more than meets the eye man...WOW! After the Spiderman 3 disappointment that some might say, This a really a breakthrough and the up most stunning visuals i have ever seen. If I ever get a chance, I would give Michael Bay 2 thumbs up!

Spoilers ahead...but who cares...

The film was set in a way whereby we all know what they were, how the transformers execute their capabilities & their mission...The best part was that i was so dumbfounded by the fact that Optimus Prime was so Strong...He actually Wield a SWORD!!! In all of my life, I always considered him to be the most useless among the Autobots(even though i don't really watch Transformers). However the part whereby he took Bonecrusher down with that sword...omg...its stunning!

In addition to best parts, as far as i can remember, there was this scene whereby everything was matrixfied(slow motion) & we see Ironhide in action as he turn 360 and fired 2 cannons...and he used the force of his cannons to boost himself upwards while just near missing a female victim caught in the brawl(still in slow motion). Its like totally awesome man!

Oh yea...BumbleBee was also great as even though he lost his legs, he carried on the fight as took down Barricade(I think)...Ok off the robots...now for the Humans...the guy that played to commander was so awesome with his stunts by taking down Blackhawk via sliding under him and fired his heavy artillery...before you know it, it was only Megatron on land dueling with Prime!

Solid part for the Decepticons not Deceptions...haha...You see jet planes getting ready to take Megatron out When suddenly, Starscream Transformed & destroyed the planes! I mean wow...no wonder they are commonly mistaken for deceptions...haha. Theres still a lot of great parts so do watch even with all these spoilers cuz this is one heaven of a show! If not satisfactory, theres money back guarantee...not by me of course...haha =)

lastly...

2007-07-04T08:53:00.000-07:00

Halo...School Life So Far...

I think i am the slackest among my friends besides those that are in the same course as me...Mainly because i got no exams or term test. HAHAHA...I can finally jump out of sec sch life...I dread test studying and exams...omg...ok, NOW all that is the PAST!

Secondly...I do not have to revise my work or anything like that as theres nothing to study...haha except drawings and stuff like that. I like the way my life is now...so care-free(not really)...its just hands on everyday..and i hooked up for drawing...some how i got a feeling that i wont quit drawing even after the Drawing Essentials module. I have improved so much...which includes the proportion of the drawing...the shading the details...etc. Life is great for me now all I can say...just trying harder everyday to improve and ignite my creativity(i had that since young)...i want it to revive again...to create things from a different view...so surprise people...to create a trademark....haha actually i already got 1...(X-marks the spot). It kinda look like the X-box design....but i vow that i had never stolen that idea...it just came to me...then i realised it was similar...haha oh well...i shall just let my creative juices flow into my works...

The third point is that i like my schedule...12 to 6...everyday don't have to wake up so early..and i got no schools on Monday...I now that i am currently pissing some people that are reading this right now as they do not have as much privilege as I...so sorry...I can't help you...I feel that sometimes even with the up most privileges...theres still something to some bad point too...like how our every work is graded...and we must put in 100% effort into every work...that's kinda harsh...and sometimes due to assignments...we don't get enough shut eyes...but well...Its give and take.

As for personal life...I guess sometimes I do feel bored as my friends all stays in the west while i am like the only east guy...wonder why they would come all the way to Tp...haha. I am rather easily bored...however...I am very easily entertained...so just chilling with 2 or more friends can already make my day...

Its understandable that not all of my course mate feel the same way as me...reasons due is the fact that some cannot draw...some cannot build clay(like me)...or some just don't have the passion for this course...I pray they would be more positive about this course as it's really great compared to the other courses in Tp...

Positive Jem...out!

Halo...What if...

I am gonna start asking myself questions today and ans them 1 by 1 since i got nothing to do...this is my blog so i guess its the only place i can express my feelings. The topic of the day is "what if you got the girl of your dreams?"...Its seems weird to be thinking of that in the middle of the night but well...it just came across my mind...can try asking yourself too...

If I had that very girl, I would...

-Tell her how much i love her everyday
-Give her freedom and space
-Give in to her(if she not in the wrong)
-Treasure every moment with her
-Make sure i put a smile on her face everyday
-Be there for her when she needs/wants me
-Play with her childish games would make her happy
-Walk with her in the rain while covering her
-Let her lie on me sleeping
-Pat her head and pinch her cheek in an affectionate way
-Always be honest with her
-Never compare her with others(because she the best)
-Hug her tightly and wish the time would stop there
-Hold her hand and keep her warm
-Cover her with my jacket without her asking
-Walk beside her and smile at her
-Let her drag me aimlessly to anywhere she wants to be
-Carry her on my back when shes tired
-Spoon-feed her
-Pray for her everyday

And finally...Keep all the things I have mentioned above...From that, it easily shows that i am just a normal and not a romantic guy at all...haha cuz honestly...i am a lil shy, so i just do my best to make that girl happy.

This post is inspired by the song "you took my heart away" by Michael Learns to Rock. No further intentions or targets related to this topic...just a way of expressing myself. =)

Halo...Lack of sleep...zzz

Its been like a week since i had a good sleep...mainly because of the assignments that i received from both my lecturers...argh! Now i stucked with 30 box drawings + shading...and 10 human expression sketches...

Aright...complains over...now lets see what interesting highlights i had this week...This week is mainly on how god relieved my stress...actually i don't really have any...cuz god took them away... =) I shall start with crusade meeting on wed...It was an enjoyable time with the crusaders as we shared our childhood & how we grew as young Christians...The overall was great...especially at dinner whereby i took a dare by Glen to drink sambal + water....sheez...it tasted horrible...and smelt like alot of people spitting in it...i WON anyway and the prize...$10!!! Yea it seems like a small amount but at least i got some cash...haha....thanks Glen. =)

Thursday was bored...it was just lessons and then chilling...and Friday...i had cell group with my Church Youth...well...we were heading into discipleship and how to make time for god everyday...i kinda miss them cuz haven seen them for a week and i didn't attend 2 sessions of the cell meeting....

Saturday was tiring...because i had to like wake up at 730am in the morning just for APEL1... its a module that we must attend to pass...lucky its only an hour...then...went to breakfast with my course mates...i just can't bear to part with them...they are all so nice and cool to hang with...i heard from Betty's friend that her course mate aren't as nice and approachable...We head to Tm to kick out at the arcade...by then many left...leaving only Jy, Betty and me...Well...i made another friend...Dina...don't really know it her names correct...haha...Shes Betty's good friend...They wanted to go for a swim so Jy & I tagged along...not to swim but to do our drawings...of course not a them swimming...we re not perverts...geez...However, the swimming pool was closed so we just slacked at Mac till its time for them to go to their church service...at the expo

I wanted to see how their service was being conducted so i asked if i could tag along...well...they agreed...of course...haha. To my surprise...City Harvest Church was so diff form my small lil church...With the technology and worship...omg...it was a spectacular event...the best part was the worship whereby everybody was so filled with the spirit that they started jumping away...I don't get to see that in my church everyday...haha...Then met Jy's cell mates...they are a bunch of nice people too...haha...during so...Jy and I were laming away we re so good....that we could walk properly...lame again...then we had free tickets to watch transformers! However...our joy bubble burst when it wasn't available anymore...i guess its ok since i might be trying to arrange for my course mate to watch it together....haha.

Sunday...which is today...went to church feeling extremely moody due to a dream that occurred...not really intending to elaborate it...cuz its kinda personal...well...thank god for restoring my mood during worship...once again...you demonstrated how much you have loved me and my fellow brothers & sisters...I feel blessed...thank you.

*In all of these days whereby the activities took place...i was shag out...refer to title*

Halo...Random post...

Lets see...haven posted for 2 days...lets back track what I've done.

Thursday

I went K-boxing with some good friends of mine...Ben Tan, Lun, Chang & Ben Wong...it has been some time since i sung like theres no tmr...haha even though i don't possess a very good voice and i only know how to sing Jay's songs...next was dinner....the rest left leaving Ben Tan & I...had some fun at the arcade...i then realised that it was money comsuming...haiz...what done cannot be undone.

Friday

Headed to school to get my subject selection thing done...haha...it was a good move cuz i knew doing it at home would cause major lag...i was done before my other friends could even reboot their computer because of the lag...my other friends that made their way to school were smart too...haha. We then had breakfast at a nearby coffeeshop. Finally...we got to our original plan...to SHOP!!! Walked from Somerset to Cathay to Far East...then finally to Queensway....where i got my Nike Shoes & a neat pair of jeans...haha...Leon bro got some cool stuff too...the things there are way cheaper than the thing in town but the place is way too far to go...so i would rather spurge there than in town...Its a sad thing that i couldn't go for Friday cell meeting because i waited for the wrong bus!!! Argh!! So angry!

Saturday(Today)

Heard that Ben Tan was sick...cuz of acute food poisoning...so went to visit him today at Changi General Hospital...He had no need to be hospitalised until he shocked the doc by fainting in-front of him due to water loss...sadz...after that...went to chill with Hakim...hadn't met him for a while since i dunno...long...then went home...I realised that life will become boring when u have no friends...so I always treasure my friends around me...nothing much le...lets see whats installed for me tmr... =)
