Some say love, it is a river, that drowns the tender reed, some say love, it is a razor, that leaves your soul to bleed, some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need, I say love, it is a flower, and you, its only seed.
Its the heart afraid of breaking, that never learns to dance, its the dream afraid of waking, that never takes the chance, its the one who wont be taken, the one who cant seem to give, and the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long, and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong, just remember that in the winter, far beneath the bitter snow, lies the seed, that with the sun's love, in the spring becomes the rose.

I feel so much better after updating my wordpress. Actually I would think the large packet of Lays BBQ, Famous Amos, Pringles Tomato, Kinda Bueno, M&Ms and and (rummages through pile of wrappers) strawberry pocky made me feel so much happier.
So yes, I was overreacting just now, perhaps because a series of events triggered off a chain of reactions from me.
I'm good, and I cannot get any better because I know I have friends to rely on. Friends who believe in me, friends who understand me, friends who shares the same opinions and thoughts as me, friends whom I know I can trust, and friends who will offer me their shoulder, their tears, their everything when I need them.
If anybody actually thought I was sad because Sham scolded me, that's so wrong, how can one be such a crybaby and cry after getting scolded by a teacher ?!?! Oh my gosh, I just turned 17 for goodness sake.
As I continue to face life challenges with strength from God and friends, I know I will be faced with abjections, rejections and more grief. But at least, I am prepared for them. And I will think of the wonderful times I had in St Nicks, the times I have should have treasured then and face the terrible place that I have chosen to put myself in.
Think of me, think of me waking silent and resigned Imagine me, trying too hard to put you from my mind Recall those days look back on all those times think of the things we’ll never do there will never be a day when I won’t think of you

We live in constant fear. The fear of losing, the fear of failing. What matters is not whether we fail, but rising after failing.
"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
-Theodore Roosevelt
Its so inspiring, after having watched the Olympics from Day 1 till now. Today's finally the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics 2008. Throughout the days of intense and conflagrant competition, I have learnt that top sportsman, aside from all the achievements they have attained, are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal. What you get out of a competition depends on what you put into the preparation for it.
I know the price of success: dedication, hard work, and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen. It is on our failures that we base a new and different and better success.
Life is a succession of moments. To live each one is to succeed.

I slowly tore out the wrapper, my tractable soul yielded to the glorious taste of this sweetest sin. Inside the crisp and delightful biscuit, is the seemingly impalpable heavenly concoct. Savouring every bit of it, I smiled in ephemeral delirium as I finished up the whole bar. Kinda Bueno, anytime, anywhere.
Sometimes simple things like chocolate make my day :)
I figured it is about, a month more to promos, and I am so screwed. Possibly because I have tonnes of undone tutorial from term 1 till now and alot of topics I need to grasp the basic concept first before attempting revision. And all the distractions are not helping at all, I need to focus.
I shall not lament, and do something about this terrible state of my life.
What you said today made me happy through the day I wish you were here to stay because you stole my heart away.
Laugh and cry, live and die Life is a dream we're dreaming Day by day, I find my way Look for the song and the meaning And you say you see When you look at me The reason you love like so. As lost I have been I'll find love again And life just keeps on running Life comes from you <3

Screaming, shouting, crying, ranting, swearing, ignoring. No compromise, no understanding, no trust, no care. It's a tiresome weary journey. But I will keep going, with the belief that God will help me. I just wish you would stop being so fucking ridiculous and unreasonable. I want you to get out of my life.
I feel so happy for __ and __ and __ ! It's really sweet to see friends with their sweethearts, their love for each other and their strong relationship. Note that there is no tinge of envy at all in the previous statement.
3 days :)
I tried to read between the lines I tried to look in your eyes I want a simple explanation; what Im feeling inside I gotta find a way out Maybe there's a way out
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know youre unlike any other? Youll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I dont wanna ever love another You'll always be my thunder

And every time I'm with you I want some more I'll be loving you long time
Time is gonna take my mind and carry it far away where I can fly The depth of life will dim my temptation to live for you If I were to be alone silence would rock my tears 'cause it's all about love and I know better How life is a waving feather
So I put my arms around you around you And I know that I'll be leaving soon
My eyes are on you they're on you And you see that I can't stop shaking No, I won't step back but I'll look down to hide from your eyes 'cause what I feel is so sweet and I'm scared that even my own breath Oh could burst it if it were a bubble And I'd better dream if I have to struggle
So I put my arms around you around you And I hope that I will do no wrong My eyes are on you they're on you And I hope that you won't hurt me
I'm dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you No need for anything but music Music's the reason why I know time still exists Time still exists

It's funny how people can sometimes make friends in just one and a half hours. Then after having fun, we bid farewell because we're not going to see each other again.
And, I did something terrible today. AHH.
I like this song, brings back those times in primary school, I don't know why because there's actually no link.
The thing about love is I never saw it coming You kinda crept up into me by surprise And now there's a voice inside my heart that's got me wondering Is this true, I wanna hear it one more time

Little darling You're killing me sweetly with love Only thing I ever could need Only one good thing worth trying to be It's love
Started as a flicker meant to be a flame Skin has gotten thicker but it burns the same Still a baby in a cradle got to take my first fall Baby's getting next to nowhere with her back Against the wall You meant to make me happy make me sad Want to make it better better so bad But save your resolutions for your never new year There is only one solution I can see here

We will make this island amazing in all ways Surprises every corner, delightful nights and days We will take this country and turn it from a place To a home that greets you with smiles on every face
We will go on this brave journey We will help to make it real We will write us grand new stories Songs that everyone will feel
We will swim the current We will scale new heights We will make it happen We will let your dreams take flight We will make the difference We will seize the day We will live each moment We will dare to find new ways
1999- Together
2000- Shine on me
2001- Where I belong
2002- We will get there
2003- One United People
2004- Home
2005- Reach out for the skies
2006- My Island Home
2007- There's no place I'd rather be
2008- Shine for Singapore
I feel like I've turned into a singapore fanatic. I actually downloaded all the years' theme songs. My favourite is still 2002 :D Nothing wrong with getting into the national day mood right !

In life, I aim high, but I never aim to be at the peak. I fear failing, I hate being unable to reach my target. I guess I am a loser ain't I !
Claude Debussy, where art thou ? Your music soothes my ear, stirs up my heart brings me great joy and happiness. How can anybody compose pieces like you ?
Deux Arabesque is really extraordinary and brilliant, ahh I love the second movement too, I don't understand why people actually can hate it !

Hvala vam za sve što ste učinili, jer ono što ste kupili, za obavljanje i govoreći: "slatke riječi koje čini me melt. Vi me smatrate važnim. A ja stvarno ne znam kako su moji osjećaji prema vama. Nema sumnje, sviđaš mi se kao prijatelj, u stvari, što je jedan veliki, ali mi zapravo ne znaju jedni druge dobro. I mi ne govorimo mnogo u školi. Ja nisam dostojan svih koje ste učinili, i ja vjerojatno nikada ne će biti. Ja sam prestrašen, ranjavanje vas, i ne znam kako odbiti sve one stvari koje su prekrasna za mene.
Ne želim izgubiti prijatelja kao što ste Vi. Molimo Vas da prestane liječenje mene previše lijepo, čini mi užasno osjećaju krivima i ubija me iznutra, da zna da sam o tome kako vam nije isto što i kako se osjećate o meni.
Hvala vam toliko za sve. Nadam se unutar ove 2 godine prijateljstva ću upoznati vas više. A možda, samo možda, neočekivane stvari svibanj se dogoditi na kraju naš A razinama. Teško je reći ne?
Tako ste je dobio za liječenje stop me način na koji ste me sada liječenju. A ja sam zahvalan za sve što ste učinili. Volim te! Philos (prijateljstvo) ljubav lah:)
I've been watching you all day Man that thing you got behind you is amazing You make me want to take you out and let it rain I know you got a man but this is what you should say

I swear, PW turns me off. So do tutorials (heaps of them undone). And the fact that promos is 6 weeks away and I'm so nonchalant about it. And the unsolicited reminders from every teacher that enters my classroom. And the abominable term report I received today. And my indisposition to do work. And the maelstrom of emotions annoying me every now and then. And my desultory thoughts which distract me all the time. Last but not least, this raging feeling of ennui in me at this point in life.
SAKAE SOOOON :D
PS, please turn off speakers if you dislike loud jap music blasting through them :] (I was in love with this song in P6 and I am just remembering the days when I could breathe easy)

This song goes out to my dear friend, stay strong. God has a reason for the happenings, and you'll get through this. I love you so much, I'll always be here for you !
This is for my peoples who just lost somebody Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady Put your hand way up high We will never say bye Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers Lift your head to the sky cause we will never say bye
As a child there were them times I didn't get it but you kept me in line I didn't know why i didn't show up sometimes on sunday mornings and i miss you But im glad we talked through All them grown full things Separation brings You never let me know it You never let it show because You loved me and obviously There's so much more left to say If you were with me today face to face
I never knew I could hurt like this And everyday life goes on I I wish I could talk to you for awhile Miss you but I try not to cry As time goes by And soon as you reach a better place Still I'll give the world to see your face And I'm right here right next to you It feels like you gone too soon Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye
And you never got the chance to see how good I've done And you never got to see me back at number one I wish that you were here to celebrate together I wish that we could spend the holidays together
I remember when you used to tuck me in at night With the Teddy Bear you gave me that I held so tight I thought you were so strong You'd make it through whatever It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever
