Know what?

SP Dance Club’s Waves 14 Circus was a blast!

Siuyun, Joshua, Chongming & Piahwee, your guys rocks!

(forgot to take picture with siuyun ><)




(gina’s b’day )

I almost lost my laptop after the dance concert!
Seriously scare the hell out of me.
I was looking frantically for it before I asked siuyun to ask the emcee to enquire the audience on the whereabouts of my laptop.
So lucky that some kind soul brought it back to the emcee to return it back to me.

I watched the concert with so much zest,
shouting with meixian whenever any of our friends were performing.

I recalled the NTU’s dance concert I watched with jean a year ago.
The same kind of concentration and admiration filled me up again.

The only difference is that my friends were out there on stage yesterday,
and I can’t stop complimenting them because I really feel so proud of them.

On the stage,
I witnessed the totally different sides of them all.

And what really took my breath off was the passion burning in them throughout their performances.
Those tedious and hectic trainings they had were rewarded with satisfaction and enjoyment from the crowd.

Dance.
It’s not my forte definitely.
That’s why I find dancers really cool.
As they use only their movements and expressions to communicate to the audience.
What a great stage presence they have.

Ya know why are lotus so beautiful?

“Imagine that you are a lotus seed buried beneath a muddy lotus pond. There is mud all around you, and you can feel them clearly. Above you, above this muddy pool of dirt, mud and filth, are sunshine and air.

With a determined heart, you begin to wiggle in the earth. You grow roots deep, deep into the mud. Your little stem grows up slowly. Suddenly, “pop” you are out of the mud! Your stem grows higher and higher, taller and taller. You rise up slowly, fighting against the muddy water. All of a sudden, you are out of the muddy pond! You reach up towards the warm sun, shining down on you.

Your lotus bud begins to grow on top of your stem. It expands and grows larger and larger, finally bursting into full bloom. A white lotus flower. You stand beautifully above the muddy water, not dirtied by the mud from which you grow. You are white, fragrant and beautiful.”

It’s beautiful because it find its way out of the mud and stand so elegantly calling the sun.

We’ll be like lotus, strong and beautiful.

If you do not have a big head, why wear a bigger hat?

沒有这么大的头, 就不要穿这么大的帽子.

In short, know your limits.

Something valuable I’ve learnt throughout the last week.

When you thought that everything is at your finger tips, you’ll find yourself gasping for air the aftermath.

So in the midst of pleasing everything, give some space for your thinking.

Because you CAN do it and you WANT to do it is DIFFERENT.

Be honest to yourself before things start to tumble.

Promises are easy to make but takes a lot of effort to fulfill.

I promise to my inner that I’ll think twice before nodding my head again.

Still, my head is small.

as usual, the old saying; time flies.

ya know i’ll be going china for my work attachment?

sounds cool enough?

i sighed up on it partly due to impulsiveness plus a little bit of wanting-ness.

i was thinking at that time that even if i didn’t get through the interview, it would be alright.

but i’d also somehow predicted that i’m getting through since chinese is not a threat to me be it written or speech.

and while i was deliberating whether this is gonna be a wise choice, the next moment i received a congratulatory mail that i was in.

i stared with really big eyes “serious not?”, with a happy deer jumping inside me for a few seconds.

its like happy but not happy.

for the rest of the days (even now), my mind is full of the cons of working there.

homesick. my biggest fear.

one and a half month.

its kinda of short actually for attachment as compared to the other courses.

its gonna be an experiential trip for me i guess.

time to grow up and venture at the outside world!

aye still have 4 more months to it la.

still long still long!

must faster teach momsie and papa how to use skype, msn webcam and 3G haha.

stupid brother in army cannot help them -.-

on another happier note, i like the tutorials so far

all the tutors are so good!

but i’ve got to submit 2 reports next week urghhh.

- show u my little beauty cousin!

wah, i like children’s complexion la. flawless can.

alright till then!

i’d forgotten the presence of the telephone lying in my house.

the longest conversation i’ve had with a friend over the telephone ever since i stepped into poly was 15mins?

ya no doubt since there’re cyber space and mobile phone.

i remember i used to chat with my pri and sec friends over the telephone for more than 1hr.

to do random disturbing chats, bitching about school life or even to solve a mathematical question.

i could remember up to 10 over telephone numbers at that time.

but now, like only 3 for the closed ones?

and i like the times when brother and me fight to snatch the phone;

the times when papa blew at the top of his voice for the ascending phone bills;

the moments when i received surprise calls from unexpected people (i’ve no caller id).

yesterday, my telephone rang.

“momsie, go pick it up. it’s yours.” i said it impatiently.

“i’m doing business la. go help me, say i’ll call back later.” she replied.

so i went unwillingly.

&

IT WAS MINE!

he’s an old friend i’ve known since sec 1.

haha awesome la.

so we had some random chats, updating each other’s life.

i couldn’t really remember, i think it has been ard 8mths since we last met.

but we sounded like we just met up a few days ago.

it made me feel warmed, inside out the heart, marking a good end to the tiring day.

i really misses the good old times, whether it was in fuhua or yuhua.

i’ve never gotten sick of repeating and listening to the stunts and stuff we did way back.

i’ll be laughing at how silly we were but inside me, i’m yearning for it once again.

just once.

but nah, we’ll be moving forward aint we?

knowing we can still reminisce is good enough.

coming to another stage in life, many friends come along and say hi to you.

we dont know whether these hi would eventually end up with a bye.

that’s why they say “friends comes in and out of your life”.

i dont need dozens of friends saying hi to me.

when you doesn’t expect, there’ll be no disappointment.

i just need these penny of few to stay on with me forever after saying hi.

and i’m glad i’ve found them.

school’s gonna get better, hwaiting!

add oil add oil!
all the best for A levels babes
