number three hundred and one
it's been another great week, and i'm only blogging about it a few hours away to a new week. ohwell. been kinda busy with the oh-very-much-dreaded promos. i just want to do well for it, because if you think about it, 2 years isnt very long, and i've only so much time to make the best out of it. what a hectic life, we should all lie back and bum around once in a while. it'll do us wonders.
so anyway, this week. it all kind of zoomed past i guess. after school on friday was very very fun. they always are, if we get to stay back after PW and just play around. bucky look very much like some fantasy high priest wearing the ripper's casing. cos he's black and all, it just adds to the whole effect HAHA. then we had a happy slapping session. and it rained so we walked out in the drizzle. but it was all very very fun.
it's funny how a same song would sound different over time. somehow, you're able to relate to the words better. i guess the song says it all :)
When you sing lullabies
I'm helpless, I'm yearning
I'm like the putty in your hands
I laugh, I dream, I cry
When you take me on a roller coaster ride
You see me through and through
You see just who i am
Just take my hand and
Save me from this place
Heaven knows I'm falling
For you, my sweet embrace
Heaven Knows
Heaven knows I've been waiting for you
I had a dream that i
was falling from the sky
At 90 miles an hour
I was bound to crash and die
But out of nowhere you came and rescued me
There must be some grace in the touch of your face
I'm so happy that I've found you
I'm no longer afraid
Oh ' cause you
Save me from this place
Heaven knows i'm falling
For you my sweet embrace
Heaven knows
Heaven knows I've been waiting
Before i met you
Life was slow-mo
So slow-mo
I thought i had it figured out
But you came and turned my whole world upside down
Save me from this place
Heaven knows I'm falling
For you, my sweet embrace
Heaven knows
Heaven knows you've come to
Save me from this place
Heaven knows I'm falling
For you, my sweet embrace
Heaven Knows
Heaven knows I've been waiting for you
Waiting for you
so come on, tell me.

three hundredth post. wow.
i had wanted to post something very long and insightful that would enlighten you readers on the secret of life and everything. but i guess this flu is killing me so i shall not post in case the radiation from my laptop sizzles my brain.
today has been a wonderful day. if you erase away the flu and all those shit like sneezing, coughing, pain in the joints, teary eyes, muffled hearing and the muffled voice. no wait, i dont have to erase those away, it still is a wonderful day.
THANK YOU! we'll have many more wonderful days to come. :)
now it's time for dinner, then chem spa, bio test and sleep till tomorrow arrives with the cure for flu. i said flu four times in this post, including the one in this sentence.
so come on, tell me.

number two hundred and ninety-nine
it's been a week. :)
it's a bummer when you cant get what you want. i sound like some kid whining about not being able to get a lollipop or something but it's true, it sucks. especially when you're hindered by stuff like eyesight not being within the "good" range of 6/6 to 6/24. i want to dive, but now i'm not sure if i can.
im going for an eye check tomorrow.
hmm, it was a pretty tumultuous friday. the school day was pretty alright, went through the normal friday stuff. then after school there was floorball boys finals where tan yew hwee almost managed to screw eveything up. but we can't really blame the man who can't even keep his wedding ring on his finger and seeks to dampen the mood of everyone around him. i may be unfair in saying this (i don't even know if the wedding ring thing is true but what the heck), but that's just what i think of him. now.
but anyway, we managed to get the thing going on albeit the delay and URSA WON! what a close match, with only a point ahead of pagasus (thus securing our place in the finals) and finally beating aquila by again, one point.
it feels real good to win. to just fight it out and emerge as champions. and as much as one would like to win, sometimes you'ld have to face the facts and be pragmatic. it's not about giving up in the face of imminent defeat, but rather, accepting one's inevitable fate. there's a very thin line between giving up and this, and the region is often greyed. but one's heart and good sense can tell the difference between giving up and admitting defeat. and one would also known if they've given their best to win.
so with regards to our (as much as i hate to say this. it may even be too soon to conclude) downfall, i would like to us the whole lot of you - "have you all given your best? or are you just going to make somebody your scapegoat for not getting what you did not even desire in the first place? only to become jealous when it's in the hands of another?"
im not faultless, but neither are the whole lot of you.
i guess this is the burden that comes along with recognition and/or position. that's the tumultuous part about yesterday. the realisation that hey, look at who you are. and the fact that inevitably, people around you would be affected. don't get me wrong, im not boasting about anything. there are times when i wish that i was just a normal kid. unnoticed, but free.
i hate sounding like that. but i guess it's how i happen to express myself today.
so yeah. like i said yesternight, it's not your fault. we're in this together, and i know that i can count on you. so...thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
what a long post. i think i should stop now and go do some work, although next week is a short one with only 2 school days but hey, i wanna do well for my promos.
bye, till next time.
so come on, tell me.
