For the lack of a better word..The feeling of tiredness...like waking up after a 12 hour long sleep and yet still yawn the whole day, seeing the white part of the rubberband after stretching to its maximum...Circumstances compels you to let go of everything and smash them...where is the joy?

Its like poems that dont Rhyme,
sugar that tastes like Lime.
age without Time,
Branches without the Vine.

The season has passed where people excite over gifts and walking along gaudily lighted streets in Orchard...Retailers happily swim among the everflowing customers and banks pop up with spanking credit card deals which eases your wallet size and expands your blood pressure!!=)

This year was different, the feeling of christmas was like chalk and cheese..to be honest, christmas here felt kinda secular, felt like it was an alarm every morning, routine...there was an obligation to be here be there.. having to wish without its meaning...Its the first time after 2 or 3 years i guess...Reason being is my absence in Singapore for the past few times..

Hmmm!, on this day 1 year ago, water buffalows, padi fields, waterfalls and eating delicious and weird food was christmas eve!!

I totally lost track of time and the only thing i remembered on the 25 was driving up a hill and sat there for hours looking at this...Although it was quiet up there, I had a long and intriguing conversation...

Art, by Cambridge is the creation of something expressive or beautiful to the artist..it can be found in many forms; ACTING, painting, drawing, colouring a structure or even moulding something...Lets take abstract, one of the hardest to interpret especially for someone who doesn't study it..many would go through the first hand of studying the artist and have a better understanding of why through the artist lifestyle, would create such an abstract art..

True, if you would have known the artist, the objective of his/her work would be lucid enough for you to construe or interpret!!..imagine many of the peers who have the power of influence giving you their opinions and toppoing up with whats portrayed in congruence with their opinions, i who merely know the definition of art would have easily abhorred that art piece, burn it down, pound it, step on it, liquidate it, step on it gain and fertilize the grass by the bus stop...BUT!!If i had done that, i would have faced dire consequenses already...

If i were to show you a blue monkey, many who have a good sense of drawing might depict it in ways that would perplex your understanding, confuse you and switch your brains to a point where everything you see is so complicated...BUT in actual fact!!!! this artist who is of exuberant character, lively, and soul refreshing is just going tough a tough time at this point of her life!!..If I saw the surface of that art piece and concluded, i would have the power to remember names easily.
The thing now is i'm carring a burden 3 times my mental weight, my joy is placed to the test...

AHHH!!..like what my seniors say last year to me, year 2 is the hardest among the three man!!true enough, this is worse than getting pragnent man!! Something called post project blues where the expansion of neurons can trigger you to exhaustion...especially when most of the work is done by you and all the rest can do is powder their face and cheer on verbally...BUT, in the end, who reaps the remunerations? who smiles when it is at real test?

You know, Sometimes i dont know why am I in this course!?!Its like a train driver who got sideTracked, a computer that lost its DRIVE...BUT no worries!! Losen the grip and let Him lead..!!

Seems like network marketing is quite new and closely related to Multi level marketing!...many seem to find the flaw in it where the price of a particular product is inflated every time it is passed down from levels of sellers to sellers and the final user purchases it at about close to 300% its org cost!! well in that sense the strategy is used in Multi network just that the diff is the price stays, workers benefit through points accumulated at point of sales!!...

Anyway, point is, it was cool idea, just that a good product without good marketing skills wont make good sales...
If ya marketing is good, you can sell ice to an eskimo, you can even sell a comb to a monk!!=)

Ahhh...The primary structure of polytechnic education; projects!...This is the term where all the major projects on most modules happen and carry the most weightage on the overall project score which then forms part of the overall GPA (Grade Point Average)..

One of the hardest for me to accept although i understand is Law man!!a compulsory module..I tell you, i didn't like that module!!everytime i see that answer, i just seem to just have something against it...firstly, Since when does judgement come with a price?!?!

But heh, positively thinking, as much as interest in a subject is a gratuity towards excelling in that partcular subject,hating it sometimes helps because you actually better understand law and it spurs you to learn more and find ways to defy it!!...

one such example where i was discussing with my lecturer for like 3 hours was marital laws-divorce...i know i'm not in a position to say this but our tutor was once teaching about the technical espects of the marital laws governing the rights of both parties like this has the right to this and that has the right to that and through this you can do this under section this and this, certain requirements must be met before you apply the clause...if they are not met, than clause would be void and the complication comes when both parties try to find ways to cut and throw more salt!!..

I pictured myself in my tutor's shoes(who is a lawyer) and whow, no wonder marital lawyers they try to avoid love in court... when clients come in all confused, angry and that flame dying, lawyers being themselves treat the problem with cynicism and finding ways to win the case just to feed the satisfaction of angry clients...It is this cynicism that thwarts the guttering flame between them and ultimately increases the divorce rate in that country...

Can there be reconciliation? are there lawyers who try to fan it again?find ways sweeten other than stuffing more bitterness? maybe i'm just exposed only to the technical or academic portion of Law that regulates and presides the county than see them in real life..but after thinking, someone could have thought of it and tried but came to an extent where fanning is useless because why? oxygen exhaustion...but then, are we breathing earthly air, or HIS?

Romans 12:2

Brring it orn!!The intensity of this MST(mid session test) is up and for this, memory can only save u a little marks in the exams. Its like math, you know what is Y=mx+c, you can memorise the functions of each like the Y intercept, gradient and all but the bundle of valuable marks lie with the formation of lines in the graph and finding the relation between the 2 linear graphs!!
Banking and finance to me is not about the fixed theories, concepts and policies in the corporate world but more about the relation to everything that revolves around us. In that sense its through learning this that i realise the importance of SAVING!!!

The cliché-save for a rainy day!..well to me Its more than just shelter, its knowing how to float in times like this. Kinda ironic dont you think?whats the point of using an umbrella? eh eh.. use a hair dryer to blow dry the floor ah..better...or best! fold paper and fan...

I broke the dilemma of language, mathematics and science with the choice of wanting to know what is outside of Singapore!, i had miles of questions like WHY cant i use rupiah in singapore? note looks nice what..WHY can't i use singapore dollar in us?all US notes regardles of monetary value have the same physical size!!!So confusing!!Why when one country fell, it affected singapore?Why US affect Singapore more then places like canada?it was through this course that i knew more and reading the papers is imperative!!

But seriously, i really miss math and science, they intrigue me with loads of discovery from the forces of nature to why when seeds are in our body, flowers dont bloom from our hair and why cant we make people smile by frowning? or vice versa?

All things are related in one way or the other..Nature has a very big effect on the economy and the economy has a big effect on people or that 7 letter word to classify humans, its something like something something something, something something something sapiens... one way or another, the world is interelated...Anyway, point is, exams are tomorrow, just finding ways to release some logical nonsense.Its not easy man...

Imagine i place your most wanted gift infont of u and say u cant touch it or i place it somwhere else after u know about it...which is harder to handle?=)

Exams comin up!!i tell you, after this, im gonna do more than play man!! sigh, guess its my turn to have that feeling where half the time you want to be in some place and the feeling keeps scrubbing my mind compressing me..but oh wells...Every cloud has a silver lining!!=)

Its looking at art portrait in a cool ambience, it gives you a first impression of questions that lead to the reasons and interpretations. Words are used to describe it; vibrant, full of colour!!giving you this tickle on your chest!.. Rich texture, impervious in character, hardly a dull angle..It calms your spirit and lifts your heart. You can never stop smiling whenever you look at it. The gleaming effect makes you babble without words. Intricate on the exterior, simple on the inside..When defences are down, its never isolated, help is omnipresent, omnipotent...

Question comes about worth: Ask the artist..He'll answer you in the most abstruse manner... ;)

Haha!!Gems today is super fun man!! altho a little lame...my module is Effective speaking skills, dont ask me why i took it, clickeing error...anyway, from that name you would have figured out what we do during lessons, so our tutor was giving a general instruction saying: Ok class, i want all presentations and ANSWERS to be oral!! alright class, ok shaun starting with you, which diploma are you from? Shaun: Oral...

Ok lame..

Intelligently stupid, thinking of the unthinkable, the heart conquered the mind. The action was compelling but the nerves were unconvincing. A known risk with vagueness appearant. Unwearied understanding but rarely being understood. Patience

whoa, I tell you, no stress from the prev semester could ever match with this one man!!although there are technically lesser projects, each project weightage is heavier and definitely more intense based on research and report presentation!!I start sleep walking in school, start giving random comments that as absolutely no link at all and lecture halls become medieval chapels where you start day dreaming on Michael Angelo's art and where Financial Management doesnt exist because barter trade was so much easier..But anyway, its manageable and i know i can do it..IT CAN BE DONE!!!If Christ is with you, who can be against you?

1$ = 100c
= (10c)^2
= (0.1$)^2
= 0.01$
= 1c

So, one dollar equals one cent!!

Whoo, never have i seen so much work man,its all loaded till my eyes are too small to absorb enough light to see man!!haha!!..and due to some drivels produced by my class, even more stuff accumulates in my work...for the past half week, cant think straight, my brain processing slows down and my right eye becomes my left...its like even when i read, it goes weird...

ok try this...i'm Pertty Srue Trhuogh raednig tihs, you Sitll Cna't Udnretsnad waht i'm Tpynig Rihgt? tahts how srtessed i am!!...but Sitll!!stnad srtnog man!! one by one...

Ever thought of teaching as a career?well i did!!At first thought...Whow.. looking at the history of teachers who fall into depression in my class because of the way we behave and all, what if i face the same thing and based on the uniqueness of my class and the way we learn, it takes a dedicated and understanding teacher to reach us!!.. to put it in a nicer way, we study with fun and interraction!!=)

History was like singing the hymnals and math was irritatingly Fun!!

I never really understood the teachers feelings until i tasted the first pinch of education myself, i placed myself in their shoes and not knowing algebra when simultanious equations is tested in major exams can sometimes make panadol and aspirin be your dietary supplement man!!...

It was until that boy came, similiar scenario, difference was his potential energy was better than his kinetics...its like walking into gold mine with your hands tied up, it Spurs you to find all ways just to tear off that rope which holds you back...

Haha!!Teaching science wasnt easy but it was just a simple reaction of Fun and Actions in learning that produces FACT ions in our brains and further reacted with exams to form a totally positive result-Fun with Nature...Future!!! That was what i learnt from someone CapABELe=)

Talkin about the same guy!!!...let me tell u a PICTorial story about the consequences of being 'lonely'...

Well, it started with this..

Then this!..watch the hand..

Then he wanted more!...

But then after a few tries, he grew tired...

And finally gave up...

And started posing for himself...
