It was quite a long day at college, for discussion and not wanting to stay home for the day. I'm glad that Kheng is back with us, really missed her so much =)

Back home, it was only sis and mom. I had nothing to do so grabbed a book and went to the garden to read. I hardly even step in the garden these days, too sunny was the reason. By then it was nearly 5pm.

The weather was good today after the afternoon rain. Despite the construction area beside my place, birds were chirping and flying everywhere. It wasn't really sunny, but I liked it like this.

I was just sitting at the white table. Very good spot for reading and stoning.

After 10 minutes of reading, I started to stare into space.

This is what I was staring at. Not the cars, the sky and the leaves.

And I stared at this plant infront of me. Wondering what if I was a tiny mankind walking in the plant, it'll look like a jungle.

Magpies are really cute. They don't come here often. Listening to them was almost paradise... until the crows came.

Uncle and cousins are back from S'pore and Australia. They'll be staying next door until wednesday. I haven't seen my cousins for nearly 3 years, but there wasn't anything much we talked, it was mostly about Australia.

That's about it. No idea why I post all this, for the sake of updating? Lol, I dunno.

"I came across a fallen tree,

I felt the branches of it looking at me,

is this the place we used to love?

Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?"

The night after the rain

The rhythm of the morning rain yesterday was good.

Sense of sight and hearing and smell finally collaborate.

Raindrops filled up the leaves of trees in my garden.

Walking down the street on the way to work, stepping on the still-wet path,

the morning was unusually quiet.

Fresh air smells really good.

Listening to my colleague complaining about the weather while I kept quiet.

Sometimes sunny sometimes rainy.

How annoying it is =)

Which do you prefer?

"You want to stay with me in the morning,

you only hold me when I sleep,

I was meant to tread the water,

now I've gotten in too deep."

This is for you

Hey friend,

we don't talk anymore, but I want you to know what I've never regretted knowing you.

People always say, if you meet anyone throughout your journey,

there must be a reason why and don't take them all for granted.

And always remember that never regret knowing anyone, when the time comes,

you will understand why.

I finally know what exactly they mean.

"Suddenly I became a part of your past,

I'm becoming the part that don't last,

I'm losing you and it's effortless,

without a sound,

we lose sight of the ground in a throw around,

never thought that you wanted to bring it down,

I won't let it go until we torch it ourselves."

Is that so?

Has anyone told you that you're wasting 4 hours each day of your life?

And they say, the best way to stop wasting time, is to fill up all your free time.

And they also said,



"Trees, stop looking at them. You're wasting time!"

I see.

What, walking past a lake without even looking at it?

Looking out of the window to see weather not the scenery?

Go to the window and stare at the sky is wasting time, you say?

Well, I don't think so.

Because I'm not the kind of person who doesn't look out of the window.

"Look up,
I look up at night,
planets are moving at the speed of light,
climb up,
up in the trees,
every chance that you get is a chance you seize."

Wednesday - 020909

I stayed longer then usual in college today. Philosophy class ended so late, and lunch was 25 minutes later than expected (Sha, Lucas, Nik and me). Poor Nik had to wait for so long for us.

We went to our usual place for lunch. When we were back at college, this MYC! thingy people bugged us to join the contest, can win cash and a trip to Gold Coast, Australia.

So what we had to do was filling in some contest form, stating what's our talent/achievement, then go take 2 pics with a Ribena cardboard.

Here are some of your MYC! Ribena Sparkling M.A.D models "wannabe"s.

For more photos from other people, see here --> MYC!

Yours truly,


Nik,


Lucas,


Joan,


Usha,


The best part of it was not dragging that "camera-shy" Sha to take pic, was kacau-ing those "Ribenas".

Not sure what I mean?



If you say Nik kick them in the ass is cruel enough to them, how about asking them to touch their nose with their hands, like what Sha did.


"If you can't touch your nose, why not let me do it for you." - Sha

We then hung out the rest of the day at 9th floor. It's no longer the library anymore, more like a place to chill now. And I'm serious.

Signing out.

Ciao.

This song is stuck in my head, thank you very much.

"I'm superficial,
it's all that I know.
I'm not sure,
I've got the strength to begin,
to let you see in between all the rest of me,
trapped behind 20 years of skin."

Yes, long time no see

Only less than 2 person knows what I've been up to the past few days.

Someone even asked me today, "Where have you been?"




Internet is indeed an interesting stuff.

I stopped blogging for few days.

I stopped tweeting for few days.

I stopped going on MSN for few days.

And a few friends already told me this:

"Long time no see"

Walked past the piano room this morning and heard someone playing this song,
it was amazing.

"Our favorite place we used to go,
the warm embrace that no one knows,
the loving look that's left your eyes,
but I know in time we'll find this was no surprise."
