MY SHOES ARE HERE! Ordered 2 pairs of shoes a few months back from asos.com and they were here on friday, must say they look great :D... Got scammed on the white one cos i thought it was leather, but still its the classy kind...

Disappointments at times tell you something dont they... that you shouldnt ever be that disappointed because its all in God's hands and never in yours... So trust in the Lord...

I've been loving the break I've been getting these few days.. the sleep that i rarely got.. the moments of rest and relaxation have made me a happy man.. now its time to focus and get back on my stride that took me to the prelims.. i've got to have that hunger and desire to do better than i did this time round..


Just the way you are- Bruno Mars
"She's so beautiful and i tell her everyday"
"Every time she ask me do i look ok? I say when i see your face there's not a thing that i would change cos you're AMAZING just the way you are"
"Cos when you smile the whole world stops and stares for a while"
This song reminds me of you :)

YOU'RE AMAZING JUST THE WAY YOU ARE..

TILL ANOTHER DAY PEOPLE, GOD BLESS AND KEEP ON SMILING!

THE PRELIMS ARE OVVVERRR! :D
Though its just a small battle on the road to the a levels, i feel accomplished to have finally finished the prelims and hopefully i wont do as badly as my mid years... when you have optimism, you have hope.. i hope

Just when i thought i could go into full fledged no hose barred party mode at least for the 4 day long weekend reality hit me that i cant party that long cos i have to think for the long haul the a levels.. darn what a joy killer.. but i make it count :)

I have to say this prelims were great in some ways and utterly depressing in others... for one, i found history to be the easiest paper of the whole prelims for the first time.. maths was managable and hopefully carelessness doesnt pull me down... the rest seemed pretty alright.. chem though was a killer for me, despite me giving it my all, i guess my all just wasnt enough... enough of all the exam talk... these two days have been great!

its something that after exams brings you... a load of your mind that you feel so free you want to party!

the night of the final exam day when everything was done and dusted... 2s23 came over to my place for a night of chilling bbq and hang out... it was great having everyone (well almost) over and we all had a blast... i find all of us being more comfortable with one another and having fun... though i dont have the pictures i can assure you we had a great one that night :)

YESTERDAY

DEEP DEEP DEEP SLEEP (12 hours to be exact) was brilliant.. and i needed it... woke up at about two and rushed over to meet amos and steph for lunch... which was great finally being able to catch up with them.. chilled out over lunch and swensons... it was great having the time to hang out with these two

I think i lost track of time then in all that sweet goodness

Rushed back home to changed and cabbed to bugis for PETRINA'S BIRTHDAY! thinking i was late but only parthi was there waiting at the mrt... we had a good night out today celebrating her birthday... we're sorry we didnt get you any present but we hope that the night was AWESOME!... i miss the times we spend as a clique, talking hours away and having fun at the same time... great jap food at iluma, great company and a talking machine that helps us order food... :)










WE HAD A CRAZY TIME
Ending off the day going crazy at the rooftop garden of illuma... what a great day with great friends :)

TILL ANOTHER DAY PEOPLE, GOD BLESS AND KEEP ON SMILING! PRAY FOR MY FINAL THEORY TEST TONIGHT THAT I DONT FLUNK IT :)

HELLO WORLD HAVEN'T BEEN BLOGGING LATELY JUSTTHOUGHTISHOULD!

If its something i've realised after so many days and weeks of intense studying and high pressure.... STUDYING IS HARD, SOMETIMES ALMOST TOO HARD

People who know me know that I'm an optimistic person and i never like to think that i can't do something i just go in there and give it my best shot... this time round for the prelims im really giving it my all despite fatigue despite the constant nagging in my brain to give up... so whatever the results i leave it up to the Lord...

I've neglected this space and its been lying here unposted for a many days.. since im taking a break from what is mainly occupying my mind and life right now, STUDYING.. i figured i would post some of my favourite songs that keep my sane in my insane life in jc at the moment...

FOR SOME REASON I'VE BEEN LISTENING TO A LOT OF RADIO and yes, a lot of muttons on the go in the evenings when i really get down to serious studying... it helps me laugh out loud it helps me get my mind off what's ahead!

The songs i've come to love are hot on the radio at the moment and they're great songs honestly!


Katy Perry- Teenage Dream
David Choi covered this, just brilliant!


King Of Anything- Sara Bareilles
You should check out the official music video, it won't play if i link it... its a great song :)


Dynamite- Taio Cruz
Great cover on a song with a great catchy tune!


Dynamite and Magic cover

I know you might think I surf youtube a lot to come up with so many videos... but you know what i just happened to look them up when i search for these songs... but youtube surfing can bring you so many covers that are better than the orginals.. all the talent on youtube

YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO AJ RAFAEL, ALYSSA BERNAL, DAVID CHOI, TYLER WARD.... BRILLIANT TALENT ON YOUTUBE... :)

Guess i have to get back to studying fellas! I WANT A BREAK FROM THIS ROUTINE! :/ i miss the chilling times though i know that its just 3 months away from liberation... God please give me the strength!... and come to think of it, i miss bowling a lot and i miss those of my friends in the army who i haven't caught up with in a long time...

GOD BLESS AND KEEP ON SMILING!

JUST WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO START STUDYING THE COMMUNITY SHIELD HAD TO START...

For a moment i thought i was finally into the "groove of studying" it soccer dragged me into this self craved addiction.. to watch the new and improved united with chicharito in the number 14 and chris smalling in the number 12 and to look at how united dismantle each and every chelsea player apart is extremely satisfying... but the last i looked at my phone and the countdown timer I DONT HAVE TIME ANYMORE :(

8 days to prelims and 93 days to a levels someone please save me

for moments in your life like this when you want to smash your head into the wall out of desperation don't because someone else in this world has it worse off than you... today we had a great sunday school lesson and it taught me about suffering... the truth is we all haven't been through suffering at all in our lives on this blessed island... you may think you're suffering but someone out there has it way worse than you... i thought about the things i had.. a great family, an opportunity to study, a great house to live in, friends that care for me, i live everyday happily jut because i can ... we all live blessed lives its the way you look at life that makes life the way you think it is

TIME TO GET DOWN TO BUSINESS!

I LOVE LONG WEEKENDS

I LOVE THE NATIONAL DAY

AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR PAINTBALL ON FAMILY DAY! :D

God bless and keep on smiling!

AWESOME AWESOME NIGHT :)

FIRSTLY HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAT!... Hope you had a great time today friend.. even though our class had a failed surprise but we hope you liked it all... :) and it was because of you i wasted my afternoon away trying to complete labyrinth and all its crazy 10 levels... hahaha

THANKSGIVING CONCERT 2010 was the best thanksgiving concert ive attended in my 3 years in this college... i could really feel the passion in the teachers as they performed and i feel that we've got the most passionate and great teachers in sr!... mr tan with his emceeing and being different characters was extremely hilarious.. and when you see the fun side of so many of your teachers it really gets you in a great mood to cheer yourself hoarse and laugh at all the things they do on stage... I ENJOYED EVERY SINGLE MOMENT TONIGHT! :) thank you teachers for such a great thanksgiving... i hope this sr tradition never fades because every year has never been a disappointment... the great theme of oscar awards really made for a smooth performance and the ending marked a great night tonight.. :)and sitting with the crazy bunch of guys in my class really made for a great night.. the shouting the cheering and made me realize that im in such a great class that will bring me great memories when i look back in the future..

after that i had dinner with the bowlers and though all of us looked tired after thanksgiving i was glad i had the chance to meet up with this bunch of people again.. i always think about the great times in bowling training and how we still always make it a point to keep in touch.. sr bowlers ftw... its such a waste that this cca is closing down!...

TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY AND I HOPE THIS LONG WEEKEND WILL BE A GOOD ONE AS WELL.. I WANT TO DO WORK BUT MY MIND TELLS ME NOT TO... :(

studying is hard

TILL ANOTHER DAY PEOPLE GOD BLESS AND KEEP ON SMILING!
ps i'll post the thanksgiving photos as soon as its uploaded :)

ANOTHER HECTIC WEEK JUST FLEW BY
JUST TWO WEEKS TO THE PRELIMS
JUST 14 WEEKS TO THE A LEVELS
I'M PANICKING AT THE THOUGHT OF IT BEING OVER IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
SCHOOL'S KILLING ME
I BARELY GET SLEEP
EVEN THOUGH I CRAVE FOR THE LIFE I USED TO LIVE
I KNOW ITS FOR THE LONG RUN
I KNOW ITS FOR MY FUTURE
THAT'S MY LIFE

If life had to hit you where it hurt the most... it would be the times when it takes my precious sleep away from my sleep deprived mind... though my will to carry on exceeds the need to sleep, sometimes i just have to collapse in oblivion.. though there are a thousand and one things to do.. i need a place to pour out the vent of complaints within me... its in human nature to do what doesn't hurt.. thats why we all love the easy way out..

WILL RUN 2010
ON A RANDOM NOTE
The event of the week was definitely will run... watching the girls run and cheering them on was great but running in the actual race nearly killed me... i clocked 11km in 1 and a half hours with a flu still on me... my lack of stamina meant i only could stay running till the 5km mark... then the hot sun took over and all i wanted to do was walk... everytime i was near the supporters arena where my great friends would cheer me on i pushed and had the will to run as far as my tired legs can take me... i never thought i could finish this will run without the support of everyone every where, all my friends who seemed to be in so many areas i couldnt stop much lol... now with my aching muscles and knees, i look back on saturday and relished how great it felt crossing the finishing line... it had that sense of accomplishment and achievement...

I DON'T WANT MONDAY TO START AGAIN... THIS TERM IS JUST MAD
