I'm switching over wordpress to blog, and although I cant say I'll stick with that for sure, its what I am currently using. Maybe eventually I'll come back to blogger since it offers more customization, but that remains to be seen.
Currently Listening To: Little Of Your Time - Maroon 5
The UEFA Champions League Final has been played out, and AC Milan are crowned the new king of Europe, and Liverpool would have to make do with second best. A little disappointing, but the heroics last performed at Istanbul will not happen every time. Congratulations to both teams, for making it this far. Unfortunately though, there can only be one winner.
I managed to catch Pirates of the Carribean: At World's End last night, or today morning to be more specific. Regretfully, falling asleep for about 15 mins in the show means I'll probably go watch it again next week. Its a nice show, but somehow the magic it contained has been lost, probably cuz its already the third installment and maybe getting just slightly stale.
The new trailer for Transformers: The Movie is out, and its really astounding. Simply stunning, please go watch the movie and not avoid it just because its the Transformers.

I just keep losing things. Hmm..
Imagine my dismay when after downloading the new patch content for WoW and realising my game time has expired. Oh noes!
Currently Listening To: Flat On The Floor - Nickelback
Time passes really quickly. In a blink of an eye, or about 1 full moon cycle(yes i noticed cuz I usually look at the sky in tekong and admire the stars) Im about to pass out in 3 weeks time and the major events are going to be completed come next book out which is this coming saturday night. Whats left of note is only the 24km route march which is going to be taxing, but oh well, thats just something all of us have to go through.
I would really like to talk about what I've experienced for the past few weeks, but I guess I'll leave the full account till after I pass out when I have my 2 weeks break. For now I'll just try to talk about some other mundane stuff...
I'm so excited about F1 2008 Singapore next year! And since the tickets are relatively cheap(about $40-$80 for the standing ones if i remember correctly), I guess I'll go watch and soak in the Grand Prix(pronounced as graund pri) atmosphere. I also know the route relatively well, since I hang out around the area pretty often because I stay in the vicinity.
The EPL has come to a close with Manchester United being crowned champions, the FA cup has just been played and congratulations to Chelsea, and whats left to look forward to is the UEFA Champions' League Final, the clash of AC Milan and Liverpool at Athens, and the sense of deja vu all over again.
Currently Listening To: Anywhere But Here - Sick Puppies
Somehow I cant blog before I left to book in, but here I am back again(surprise!) unexpectedly, finishing up some stuff I planned to do before I rush off for my interview which excellently granted me a welcomed reprieve from army after a particularly tough week which most of it was spent outfield.
Everytime I have alot of things to say, but this stupid blogger keeps screwing up in ways that just wont let me blog, and in the end I'll end up too lazy to pen down my thoughts, thus resulting in the result drought of posts.
Phew. I'm drained, but satisfied.

I don't know where to go So I guess I have to fly I'll have to dream of all good things before I die
So where to go Lord, I guess I'll have to fly I'll have to dream of all good things before I die
Chorus: And it's getting so much harder to be one these days So much harder to believe So much harder to be one these days So much harder to believe
And did they know that they'd need a fence so high Cause giving up is a total waste of time I stop to breathe in an air as I Watch the ground beneath us blend into the sky
And it's getting so much harder to be one these days So much harder to believe So much harder to be one these days So much harder to believe
Cuz it's getting so much harder to be one these days So much harder to believe So much harder to be one these days So much harder to believe
I dont' know where to go I dont' know where to go No, i don't know where to go..

Actually I find that I hardly miss the outside life at all. Maybe in time to come that will change, but for now I really find that this new schedule suits me, maybe except for the time that I have to wake up.
I think that some things work in strange ways, and that life goes around in one big full circle. Each action has every consequence, the law of cause and effect, and no matter how it seems, there will be an end result, whether it happens right away, or in the future, it doesnt matter. What I'm trying to say is that there'll definitely be consequences to every decision you make, good or bad.
If you try too hard to plan for the future, you get pressure and stressed out unduly, especially since you're only a teenager. What, you want to have a perfect plan for everything? Like a phase 1 phase 2 phase 3 kind of thing? There's been so many reports about kids growing up too quickly and adults aging too slowly, and thats precisely because of the way society has been made. Kids have been programmed now to think for themselves, and in today's cutthroat society they have to become competitive to learn how to survive in this world where resources are becoming increasingly scarce.
They have to make decisions that affect their future paths, and all these to be done when they're only at the young age of 16 or 17...how is that possible? And most of the time now, we have parents that want to make that decision for their kids, always pressuring them to live up to what their parents want, never thinking about what the kids really want. Each individual's life is meant to be lived individually, not to be controlled by another.
Thats why I let the current of the fate carry me along, and slowly I drift with it, to wherever it goes.
Currently Listening To: Testing the Strong Ones - Copeland
...At the very end, I don't have much to say too. At last this chapter is closed.
Good bye.
P.S: For 2 lines, I took a bloody long time to write them. I had this vague outline for a long farewell speech I wanted to put down but then I guess I just decided to let them go. No point repeating the past. In the end I decided to make do with the 2 sentences above.

Hahaha...I dont really have the urge to blog that much, but I can say that I've been going out very often recently, meeting up with alot of people and then doing this and that. Hmm...

ManUtd actually overturned their quarter final deficit during the 2nd leg at Old Trafford and won 7-1 against AS Roma. For a moment I thought I saw the scoreline wrongly...but what the hell..
Currently Listening To: Sooner or Later (Soren's Song) - Switchfoot
And again, I've changed the song on my blog, and this time I've chose Switchfoot's Sooner or Later. This time it represents (kind of?) the new chapter of my life is starting, and the transition period between the last chapter and the upcoming one is coming to an end, sooner rather than later. So sit back, relax and enjoy the song.

Come back and haunt me Follow me home Give me a motive Swallow me whole
They say I've lost it What could I know When I'm but a mockery? I'm so alone
Sooner or later you'll find out There's a hole in the wall (2x)
Today is ours Condemned to be free Free to keep breathing Free to believe
I look to find you Down on my knees Oh God, I believe! Please help me believe
Sooner or later they'll find out There's a hole in the wall Sooner or later you'll find out That you'll dream to be that small
I'm a believer, help me believe (2x)
I gave it all away and lost who I am I threw it all away With everything to gain And I'm taking the leap With dreams of shrinking
Yeah, dreams of shrinking (3x)
Come back and haunt me Follow me home Give me a motive Swallow me whole

lyrics
Maybe I didn't treat you quite as good
as I should have,
Maybe I didn't love you quite as often
as I could have,
Little things I should have said and done,
I just never took the time.
You are always on my mind,
You are always on my mind.
Maybe I didn't hold you all those lonely, lonely times,
And I guess I never told you,
I'm so happy that you're mine,
If I made you feel second best,
girl I'm so sorry, I was blind.
You are always on my mind,
You are always on my mind,
Tell me,
tell me that your sweet love hasn't died,
Give me,
give me one more chance to keep you satisfied, Little things I should have said and done,
I just never took the time.
You are always on my mind,
You are always on my mind
