Sigh. =)


a moment in time.
15:28



Photographs. The imperfect way of capturing perfect moments. Or the perfect way of capturing imperfect moments. Memories encased in a single still shot that invoke the most complex of emotions. A tangled web of lies and truth intertwined in a depiction of both the most explicit and subtle of tales. Exposed, the context and the characters, yet so implicitly subtle, the multitude of emotions and meanings that lie in the subconscious.

The first time I felt like everything was slipping away from me, I searched for a way to keep a piece of every special moment with me. Blogs, notes, little bits of mementoes here and there, photographs. Now I’ve taken too many. Like Charissa said yesterday, I want to take photos everytime I go out. For memories’ sake. (Sorry to everyone (like Charissa and Simran) for always forcing you guys to take random group photos, so I shan't anymore. Sigh. haha.) Really, have you seen your life flash before your eyes? I have. Every single moment I’m awake.

Every moment I am awake is a lie.
Every face is a façade
Every feeling hides another beneath
Every spoken word a cover of lies

Simply because I live a lie.

And worst of all, I let myself do so.

I am bound to the past. It haunts me. I haven’t been sleeping well. 3am almost everyday since the hols started. Can’t stop thinking about what has gone by, and what will come. So today, decided to go. After the filming (and raining), stopped by at the HOD room and asked all I wanted to know. So now I do. But of course, can’t say what. I am filled with conflicting emotions that result in this dark and deep neutral feeling. like you feel so… neutral it hurts. Because you feel disappointed, but then you don’t, then you do again. It sucks. Argh.

Saturday, November 25, 2006

Well, yesterday, some people asked me what I want for Christmas this year. (Assuming what I want is material stuff)

I want something... touching, memorable, sweet, larger than life. Most of all, I want something made with love. (i.e. not for the sake of giving me something, or just for show to everyone else) =)

No, actually, most of all, I want love. And happiness. =)

But if that's too much to ask, and/or if you're just too rich for your own good, behold.


My Amazon.com Wish List



P.S. Notice how BF2142 is at the bottom. The negative reviews just drove it down today. I yearn for GTASA!!! woo!

Memories. Time. Life. Sigh.

Article A: We went to take a look at the Ferraria Park showroom today, after a visit to my grandma, and at the recommendation of Michelle and Nazri. I love the style of the interior deco, and especially the architecture. A clean look - white, silver, clear. My usual style. Bright and cheery yet stylish and classy. So now my parents are seriously considering it. But it'll only be ready in 2 years. I'm thinking of somewhere I can move to now though. Like Tropica! With a beautiful view of sunsets EVERYDAY! Haha. The design and style of Ferraria is probably nicer and to my liking though.

Article B: Quite a shocker. NS letter came today. Haha. Well. I've to go soon I guess. And it reminds me that I am 16.5 years old!. Which reminds me of my birthday which makes me sad. =(

People always say there's time. But I've found that if you don't treasure every moment you have with the ones you love, and try to make the world a happier place every day of your life, you'll find that time has already run out. So little time, so much to do!

You Are 69% Perfectionist

You are a true perfectionist. You are both demanding of yourself and others.
While it's great to have goals and standards, they don't need to be sky high!
Are You a Perfectionist?


No wonder la. Lol.

Anyway, I’ve gotten used to seeing… THAT smile. So ya. It’s not so bad la. It’s like being in a new country then eventually getting used to it. Sigh. That reminds me of UK. I’m currently bottling my emotions. Heh. So today they filmed me riding a bike and looking angsty while sitting on a bench (which is pretty easy) haha I think my cycling skills have suddenly gotten better for no reason! Haha now I don’t clench the handles tightly and I can relax while cycling haha and not feel tired. Haha this means I should go out cycling with people during the hols!

Anyway. Notes from prom:
- I din’t sing Mai Hum! And Justin still owes me his forfeit heh
- I din’t sing onstage (although I still got embarrassed – two times) – totally forgot about it
- Like how I forgot to take photos with a lot of people ARGH like the teachers. din’t even notice them leaving
- Now I’m known by icomm as the “guy with the shortest thumb”

My parents went to visit Jastine without me because I was so damn tired and sleeping. Sorry jastine take care! Cya around!

WOOO SEXYTIME. lol.

The greatest technological mishap of the week (after my... prom photos) has happened! MSN is so so so screwed! LOL. It was quite amusing. Just that I din't see a lot of messages. So now I'm offline. And I think this is a sign for me to go sleep. NIGHT PEOPLE.

Wednesday, November 15, 2006

Well, today was interesting. Another long long day. I din’t sleep much last night. Kept thinking. And thinking. And trying to prevent myself from falling into the worst angst ever. It was like that.

The last ip2 event ever and I screwed up my photos and it’s the end and we’ll never be able to gather together again like that and have so much fun and I’ll never see the girls in their pretty prom dresses and the guys in their suits and take photos like that again and I screwed up my last chance and will I ever get to see my class as one again will I ever be able to go back to t23 and call it home what is going to happen to me and all the close friends I’ve made and I’ve been through this before that’s why I know friends forever is a lie…

Until something like 3 or 4 or 5. then I had to wake up at 8 to go to school to help out in the school video awards entry. And we did the voice recording today but I kept speaking too fast sigh. They shouldn’t have gotten me la. Anyway tomorrow’s the filming for my part. Riding a bike at ecp lol. ah well.

We visited Jastine at KK and he’s ok now. Quite a shocker yesterday. He explained Pneumothorax. It occurs, in Jastine’s case, “Spontaneously,most commonly in tall, slim young males”. Hmm.. anyway he’s in stable condition now. So Jastine, take care! I think you might be online once you get your laptop there.

Headed to Fish & Co at Novena for dinner. And it’s the kind of cocktalking that I’ll really miss so much. Sigh gosh I’m becoming angsty now… there’s much to do. After tomorrow I can start sorting my life out.

Haha omg prom was so gorgeous! Hahaha thanks so much to the juniors and ms tey for organising! =) haha I think I’ll elaborate tomorrow. Since it’s pretty late I’ll just whine. OMG OMG OMG my photos! =( most are super ugly. Cos when I went on the photo sprees my smile became impossibly HUGE! Omg! And my eyes look sunken or something. ARGH. So this is a call! SEND ME YOUR PHOTOS!!! (Especially those of me and whoever you are.) Please! =( Ok gotta go sleep. The infocomm people just called me up to tell me I’m like acting or something tomorrow. At 930. lol. for School Video Awards. Heh. ah well. Ok I’m pretty tired. And I realised I din’t take enough photos! =( sigh. Less than a 100 leh! Bah.


ARGH omg omg omg so ugly! =( SO RETARDED. ew. ew. ew. The photos make me cringe! I should have remembered those few I took in London and not ruined so many at PROM! omg omg. =( I'm utterly upset! Sigh. Nvm I'll focus on the people beside me. Hmm... ARGH. No wonder michelle was like "mark! why you smile liddat!" and I had no time to check the photos. Lol. Omg. I think my super bright flash is the cause. It makes it even worse! Please send me photos! =(

At the turn of the century, we have yet to see who will be the geopolitical leader of the 21st century. Being Singaporean, with a naturally pro-Asian government, we tend to think of the term “Asian Century”. Everyone wants a piece.

The African Century: a beacon of hope for the African people, coupled with the push for an African Renaissance.

The American Century: Having being the preeminent player in the 2oth century (and thus making it the American Century), the Americans seek to continue dominating the geopolitics of the future.

The Chinese Century: China is seen by many to be an emerging superpower, with its economy surging on to prosperity for the largest population on this planet.

The European Century: the European Union is another candidate in the superpower race, and in this century, the current European way of doing things will become dominant in the world

The Indian Century: The second emerging superpower in Asia, with a large, dynamic under-25 population, seeks to surpass its Chinese counterpart.

The Pacific Century: The Pacific Rim states (especially China, Japan and the United States) will dominate the 21st century.

I personally believe in the Pacific Century because I feel the economic prowess of China is overrated, and their social and political situation has yet to show any sign of development. The only hope for China is that economic reform, development and dominance will lead to socio-political reform for the country. Also, Asia’s economies cannot do without the dominant socio-political ideologies of the West (specifically the US) and American culture remains very much a large part of our lives.

Have you ever fallen for infatuation?
Have you ever fallen into awkward silence?
Have you ever felt the pain of words?
Have you ever felt your heart break into pieces?
Have you ever tried so hard to keep it real?
Have you ever tried so hard to keep is sane?

Yet the harder you try the harder you fall
The harder you try the deeper you fall
Have you ever tried to let go?
Have you ever faced the fear of letting go?
When you’re torn apart with no words to say
When your heart and mind take different paths

What are you gonna do?

The next time emotions come over me,
I’ll be ready.

Argh. Why can't these feelings leave me. Stop haunting me.
I was spectacularly late for the mini fun fair at SHPS. The whole thing was gone when I reached. Ah well. We went to this… Qi Ji place at Century Sq for lunch. It’s sort of umm… an eatery. Dunno what to call it. Something like Ya Kun or Killiney but selling main dishes lol. Quite good food. They even added lasagna to the menu yay. Then, behold, the ARCADE. WOO I love Daytona. All those hours spent on NFS has this wonderful effect. Haha I’m driving manual now. And it feels GOOD. Haha then we went to Darho’s house. Watched Devil Wears Prada. Omg omg omg. The FASHION. Is so glorious. I wanna live the high life one day. Gotta. Hafta. WOO. Then Just My Luck. Which was in some ways fun, in most other ways SO LAME. Lol. but Lindsay lohan is so pretty!

Your Expression Number is 4

Practical and down to earth - everything in your life is organized.
You are a great writer and teacher. You never forget a detail.
Very patient, you have the ability to cultivate talents in difficult fields.

You also tend to have an artistic side. You'd make a great architect or classical musician.
You face your responsibilities with a positive attitude - and you always get things done.
You are serious, sincere, honest, and faithful.

Sometimes your strong sense of responsibility leads to frustration.
You also tend to develop strong likes and dislikes, which border on dogmatism.
At you're worst, you can be a dominant disciplinarian.
What's Your Expression Number?


So yes. After waiting for my parents to return from prison (LOL), we went down to people’s park. which is like damn ulu. Ok whatever. Anyway we began looking for trips! Yay. which was unsuccessful because I don’t really like people’s park and I don’t want to go on a tour. I want a free and easy to Australia or NZ! Whee. Just relax by the beach and watch hotties going by.

Then we went to Swissotel for dinner to celebrate my dad’s birthday. And I shared a fondue with him. I thought it was the cheese one, but it turned out to be Fondue Bourguignonne - deep-fat fondue. I was like OMG. Argh. But it wasn’t that bad la. Just damn unhealthy. It was quite an experience. Hahaha when you dip the beef in, the oil bubbles madly and you hear a gurgling sound. WOO. Omg. But I think I prefer cheese fondue. My mum had some cod fillet in errr vegetables and tomato sauce thing. Dunno la. As long as it’s cod it’s nice. WOO. Then we had banana split and a chocolate sundae yayyy.

MMM. I love swiss food. And yay my parents likes the ben and jerry’s. I bought them a pint to share haha 2 flavours somemore! Cos I definitely owe my mum a bdae present after buying her hsm. And also not giving either of them presents for previous bdaes. Yes I’m a bad son. Sigh.

No turning back | No Regrets 2006

- Not growing up (emotionally? oO) fast enough – For being angsty and depressed AND depressing from May to a random month in term 3. I spoilt my own birthday (actually it was pretty disappointing itself), my whole UK trip, and generally school for me. For getting upset over nothing. For making myself upset with my own emotions. For putting on a façade. For forcing myself to be happy just so to fulfill my duties as welfare, to keep everyone else happy. For not being happy when I should have been.

I don’t have any other regrets. Just that one. Maybe this.

- Not becoming a PSL: My only excuse/reason/obstacle – “I’m introverted”. And most people were like WTH. I did go on the last day of the umm IP1’06 Orientation. I guess that makes up for not experiencing the rest of it. Haha the last day was fun. All the crazy water splashing. I’m still undecided whether I should have been a PSL or not, but the opinions I get mostly lead me to believe that I should have been one. lol.

Which I don’t really regret because in the end I was still happy. Aaron once told me not to regret anything. That’s damn good advice. I still stick to it. All the choices I made, like choosing to balance my life and not study hard enough the whole year when I could have aced the exams both years and not sing Mai Hum, I don’t regret. It’s just that I might have been happy the whole year round and made it easier for those around me to be happy, and I didn’t. Haha I still wish for everyone to be happy. That’s my greatest wish of all.

I am in search of the photo in Koganti's UK Trip Video for Symposium that plays from 0:23 to 0:25. It's the one we took at the airport on the first day before we got onto the bus. WHO HAS IT. HOW CAN I NOT HAVE IT. Heed my call, leige, or you will fail. Anyway haha the video makes me want to laugh my ass off, and cry at the same time. Wow.

As long as Lee Kuan Yew lives, as long as His dynasty continues, as long as the PAP holds its grip on the government, there will continue to be Senior Ministers (SM Lee), Mentor Ministers (MM Lee), Mentor-mentor Ministers (MMM Lee), Mentor-mentor-mentor Ministers (MMMM Lee). It won't stop there. As long as He lives, there will always be a place for Him. Up and up The Ladder. Leading up to the final, ultimate post - The Deity. Bow down on your knees to our great leader.



Go ahead. Ridicule me. My mother, like the people of her generation, reasons, gives excuses, tries to find a way out. "Who would want to be Prime Minister for so long!" "Go become Prime Minister then!" Alas, they do not see the fallacious logic. I have my own respect for him. But when our incumbent has its hold for too long, we need something more. Something to assure us. And they cannot. Time and time again they fail. Economic success versus the socio-political fabric of society. Behold the dilemma.

Infatuation is an emotion that you CAN wish away.
Love is forever.


Haha so the Hilton post-prom room thing appears to be more complicated than it seems. The whole “we don’t want you to make noise” thing is not about courtesy to our own people. It’s not just the Hilton, it’s all the five-star, high-end hotels in town. EVERY hotel, not just Hilton. And why? Because good old Bush (ahaha. bush. BUSHHHH AHAHAH) is paying our tiny red dot a visit on Charissa’s birthday! (of course, there’s no connection. As in Bush is not visiting Charissa. oO)

My uncle manages the Oriental, my aunt manages the Shangri-La. And I received an sms this morning saying that all the hotels are full house “in view of Pres Bush’s visit on 16th.” Damn effing bushes. Can’t even keep their ruddy asses in the US. Have to destroy our prom plans in Singapore also. Eh we should call the Taliban. YEAH MAN. Ok whatever I’m being crazy. Aiyah Bush is ok la. We can’t really comment right? Unlike on the Lee DYNASTY. (YES sace face it fuckers suckers. We know the truth. COME GET ME. Just come get me. See what everyone says.) Just that sometimes he’s so oO. And furthermore, the Democrats have just taken over the US House. Wonder what Bush is gonna do. Lol.

On another note, I appear to have skilZ in Carbon too. LOL. Fearrr.

Hmm. NFS Carbon is so so la. Racing at night is harder. The physics and handling are either more realistic or just worse. The graphics have taken a step down to looking too animation. Night racing is quite cool though. The canyon racing is tough, especially since you can fall out the side, but I got a lead and held it and won. Woo. I love the drift races though. I dunno la. I just love drifting. The way the car spins, yet you still have control. The screeching of the tires, the burning of rubber. As well as high speed racing. Omg I love it when it goes 200mph. And the wrong move will send the car spinning yet you have to avoid incoming traffic. And the adrenaline for both are just incredible. Haha. the demo is quite closed la. It’s more of a game I’d borrow/rent than buy. The other features just destroy the experience.



And omg. Days of Our Lives is almost as old as Singapore. It’s been running since 1965 omg.

OMG PRESTIGE IS DAMN COOL. So many twists and turns in the plot. It’s like adrenaline. And you think it’s gonna end, but it doesn’t because it takes another turn. And you’re left hanging there for a moment till you realise what’s going on. And in the last few minutes, the last scene, so much is revealed, it’s just like the prestige itself. The film is like a magic trick itself. You think it’s an ordinary film about rivalry between magicians, then comes all the twists and turns, and finally, the prestige, which leaves you wondering what the hell happened and how C. Priest even came up with that kind of plot. It’s a damn good movie. Probably the best plot I’ve seen in my life. It’s so complex, yet it all sets in together in one breathtaking ending. And I love how the War of Currents between Tesla and Edison mirrors the rivalry between the two protagonists. Omg omg!

Haha anyway yay. Vivocity is nice. It has shiny, sparkly floors! And it’s huge. Just like Suntec City mixed with all the other shopping malls along Orchard Road. Woo! But I can’t really find my way around yet haha. It’s cool though. And somehow, SOMEHOW, I ended up going prom DRESS shopping (as in I din’t buy la). With Xh, pam, and xtine and laura whom we met haha. I shan’t reveal anything. Anyway all I did (mostly) was sit outside the fitting room waiting for them. Haha. OMG PRESTIGE. OMG OMG OMG.

Ok since I’m probably not going to go swimming tomorrow, I think I’ll stay at home and angst about the IP ending and try some sketching. And maybe even get some assessments for chem, math (GASP. Assessment. I haven’t touched one since p2. and even then it wasn’t my parents who gave them to me. my parents are so anti-assessment lol. but koh (darkside)said I should work on chem and math. hmm. Oh I’m supposed to ask koh (ephraim) what to do.) haha and upload class pics, and play with photoshop. Ok gtg sleep. Nite ppl.

OHHH NFS: Carbon demo downloading! It’s gonna be the next obsession in my life. I wonder where bf2 gone =((( I din’t buy it in the end. Must’ve been exams or cos I started playing NFS lol. sigh. Poor bf2. all my skills. All my ranks. all gone. Bleh.

Your Vote Score: 41% Republican, 59% Democrat

You are truly an independent voter, and you don't fit well with either party.
Maybe you should choose one issue to vote on - or look into third parties!
Should You Vote Republican or Democrat?


When you see the memories go by
When you see your life flashing past you
You’ll understand the pain in my heart

Prestige tomorrow! =)

John - The case of the IP elites
http://fauxnatism.blogspot.com/

We ARE the next GEP. The IP was meant to phase out the GEP. But whether I'm going to face the same sort of discrimination as I did before will only show next year. It's a matter of time. Perhaps it's an inferiority complex, or just a tendency for segregation, both unfounded. But I hope it won't be the same. I've had enough. Seriously.

SYMPOSIUM!!! Haha so yeah, there was a huge screwup in the morn. About cds. So IP2s – those who have the wrong cds, we’ll be uploading the thing onto an ftp server (probably mine) and you can download the extra files. We’ll be mass emailing. But even worse, missing people in rewind thing itself. Sorry Aaron Ng, I hope the compensation will be enough. It’ll be in the expansion pack thing. Yup. But besides the screwups, I had quite a lot of fun. Haha exhibiting the RM poster was actually quite… like nothing happened la. Haha went around a bit, then headed up the treehouse. And talked there. And took photos (so typical me). then the prc lunch thing… sorry for yet another class outing screwup. I mean yeah it wasn’t a class outing, but only Xijiao went. Here’s wishing all the V13 prcs – Xijiao, Yang Yi, Huang Yue, Yijin, Yufei, Shan Shan – all the best and bon voyage! I’ll be there at the airport if I can wake up on time! =) Ifnot, then yeah will miss you guys! All the best =)

So we wanted to bring Xijiao to try some Singapore food before she left. Gluttons’ Square was closed argh. So we went to the foodcourt at Marina. Haha thanks Xijiao for the drinks! Then we went for a bit of prom shopping. And Xijiao wanted to take the river boat haha so we went to the Esplanade , where we decided we’d leave it for next time, but then we went in the end. Haha it was fun la! Not super fun like London eye, but very refreshing haha (even in the haze which has come back ARGH) haha to see Singapore in a different way. Haven’t taken the bumboat for years. And we took more photos! Haha damn fun la!



Then we said goodbye to Xijiao, and went to Suntec to look at more prom stuff! Haha. Then I met my parents and we went to Colbar (http://www.visitsingapore.com/publish/stbportal/en/home/about_singapore/ezine_home/Jun06/fine_finds/Colbar_.html) for traditional Western fare. Not bad. But I bit my tongue earlier so it wasn’t as enjoyable LOL.

Why I was sad today:
I didn’t even know it was my dad’s birthday sigh
The Rewind screwup
The general missing of t23 as my classroom, as a place I can call home

Today was such a cool day. Lol. Eh I love playing CS in class. Dunno why. It feels better than Zion or home. oO. Anyway lol rm. Then drama exco. Haha the musical thing is on hold now. Yay. I don’t have much time to deal with it now anyway. Haha then rewind. LOL damn fun la. You people, hopefully, will get the surprise tomorrow. I think it’s damn well done. (Besides the typos, and uhhh some other stuff) hahaha then the new batch came in. Apparently the curtains are just for OP. So I was mistaken. Sorry for giving my fellow VIPers a scare. Lol. Then yeah anyway I felt like it was the end of an era. The new generation has come. To replace us. We’re gone, forever! Yet we leave our legacy. Our Fuji, our Inv!gorate, our Darkside, our Rewind, our bomberman, our Mr Brown, our Halo, our Youtube. We have left a legacy. Haha. Well, here we go again!

WOOOO. I just finished burning 100 copies! WOOO. And I was quite surprised to find out that using two burners at the same time is slower then just using one. So weird. Hmm. It took 15 mins using two to burn two discs, and 4 mins using one. haha.

Haha then on the way back, nazri commented that ip is over. We don’t talk abt ip stuff anymore.

And yeah I’ve kept the feeling away for a long time. But every day it’s inching back to me. I wonder when it’ll hit me. Or brush by me. A dusting. Or a battering. I wonder if people can really move on while holding the memories. Haha. I hope they show nice videos on symposium day.
