Your love; it's soul captivating <3

Dreary Days
It's easier to lie and be safe
Time and time again I'm half stalled
One giant leap of faith is easy
When everyone you ask is so sure


I am in like with Snow Patrol at the moment :)

Aiight, just need to get myself thru this last 3 months, then (hopefully, with all my digits crossed) I'll be up up and away to some land where I don't feel perpetually claustrophobic and hypocrisy is a distant memory (ok, that's asking too much).

Random Flutters of Excitement
What's amazing is that I'd asked for a sign yesterday.. and You sent along a very special letter :) What follows is all in Your hands!

Ohmy.. I'm so unprepared. I've never touched anything related to this because I think I'm not good enough. Only picked up its brochure once and flipped through it furtively (because I thought I haven't the right to) Do You mean I've been looking the wrong way the whole time? Lord I need You guidance so so so much.. Don't let go just yet :)

There is nothing more >____< than filling up the B-right-sparks form.

OTOH, I'm set on Cornell!! The campus is like woo! HAHA if they see this I can like give up all hope of being admitted. Really feel like applying there early decision. If my app gets deferred, my heart can still take it. But if they reject me outright.. I will go into hiding and mope. IF I GET ACCEPTED I WILL JUMP AROUND I won't even care if I sprain my right ankle an 8th time :D

It's all in Your hands Lord, all in Your hands :) And thanks for canoe cell today, it was intellectually stimulating yayy! <3

This is me at my happiest :)
My paddle's leaning lonesomely against the closet, and Gideon Jnr.. He's dehydrating in the RJ shed. Boo. And I'd brought my watch home. I hope the next friend to RJC03 treats him well. Which reminds me, I haven't left my mark on him yet :) I was thinking of inking Godspeed at some prominent place and maybe touching up the verse in it.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil: For thou art with me.

Psalm 23:4

Anyways, trying to fill up my SGC 3 Best Achievements now. Feels awfully weird trying to see myself in a different light. I keep thinking This is not me, I'm an awfully flawed person! but of course we have been strongly discouraged from being reflective about our misdeeds and misfortunes so..

I've been thinking about the future a lot lately. And I figured that this would be my ideal route:
_TB Scholarship to Cornell U/UPenn -> Hotel Management/Business + Crew
Though this way would be a whole lot easier:
NUS -> Double Degree in Business and Communications and New Media + Kayaking + USP?

Oh well, it's not the time to worry yet. More pressing matters: PRELIMS z'ohmyggX____X.

OH AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!
Caught NDP, my favourite segment is still the parachuting :) Makes me hold my breath! Especially when they did it a second time when it was all dark.. woah, cool stuff! :)
Umm. School celebrations also not bad. I loved loved loved the laser show! Tho I never knew RJC Laser Studios existed. Kudos to people who made that short laser film! The animation was seamless! And uh.. the rest of the night.. not bad, but it was pretty hot and humid out on the Spec's Gal and 9pm's kinda late to end it. Still, gotta give it to the school, loadsa money and effort went into it that's for sure! And I love the Canoobs! Van, Joo, Jave, Man, Elisa and I hung out together the entire night. Just like the old times, almost :)

I wish there's some way we could meet again
Then we'll start over
And move away from this awkward, vague state of semi-recognition
I'd like us to be friends

Homesickness
Heyhey! Contrary to empirical evidences I'm still alive and kicking (Ouch) and looks like I'd continue to be so for a long time yet. Which may or may not be an appealing prospect depending on the amount of FFG (Fatal Feelings of Guilt) that comes from regular procrastination.

Anyway I haven't been online for so looooong because I haven't felt the need to. These days I'd rather go against my tree-hugging nature and devour books. I've read something like 12 books since the end of NSCC, which is something like 6 times what I did in 2006. Marvy! I might single handedly destruct "Mother Nature". Haha. (Can you sense my scorn for that vile term? Disgusting anthropomorphics.)

But! Maybe! I devour books 'cause I've been feeling kinda empty/hungry. Can't seem to get my daily fill of Canoobian humour anymore. Lunches aren't as filling either when it's not taken in mad dashes at a cramped canoe table. I am missing my Vitamin C (Or as some NUS guy who came for scholarship day would say, Why-ta-meen C). Java puts it best, "everyone's either marching home or off to the library now". It's really sad. Really really really sad. So sad. :C

I hope it's just a temporary stretching of the bond. I hope it doesn't snap.


Why did Fred have to die? WHYYYYYYY :C
