After 2 years of trying to brainwash myself into thinking I love running, it's time to come clean.

SCREW RUNNING.

At 1-10km, I was happily chilling out to mraz's curbside prophet and thinking "this is no kick i can take this shit man"

At 11-20km, I was thinking "Okay, maybe not."

At 21-32km, "WHY THE !@#$% DID I SIGN UP FOR THIS SHIT IM DYING OMG SAVE ME I WANT TO FALL OUT"

At 33km, my right knee started to hurt real bad. Therefore, walk rest of the way.

Timing: Total bullshit. About 7 hours. LOL.

In short, I am giving up on running. Worst pain in the world. Bleargh. Respect for those who love running man.

tomorrow is a good day because there is no tuition, and nothing on at night so i can just go home and chill and game and relax. oh yeah. hopefully nothing crops up then.

as it turned out, it was a rather uneventful weekend. oh wells.

last week of work. good in some ways, bad in others. mostly good though. lol. must remember to bring camera. but i do have 3 tuitions again this coming week. horrendous.

sundown on saturday. really unprepared. just hope i can finish the race. thats like all im asking. lol. shit i am so loser.

time to start looking for ad hoc jobs. anyone have any? call/sms. willing to work weekends, night time jobs, everything. Available from June-July. 

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I ever had

Time for another picture to relieve boring wordiness. (is there such a word? heck. now there is.)


the awesome cd cover of the new single futari by ikimonogakari. props to pearleen for the song. damn nice.

ball was slightly better. but still bad at the end. gotta work on my fitness.

had kuishinbo with the ball dudes. was pretty cool. first time eating crab. haha. how cui is that. sashimi owns.

somehow this emptiness just sets in suddenly without warning, and i'm left with nothingness in its wake. its been a long, long time since i felt like this. 

i feel so shackled.

should it be this way? actually im blowing things out of proportion. oh wells. sometimes i feel very sick of it all. i do recognise that this is all very pathetic.

i also have to mention that i absolutely hate my job. cant wait. 2 more weeks to liberation.

alright. enough of emo shit. this blog is getting too secondary school emokid. ONWARD! the next entries shall be akin to gleaming rays of sunshine blazing through dark clouds.

and my compo skills are 1337. so there. YARH!

how very bipolar.

"對於人生,對於家庭, 
對於愛情,對於友情, 
我們總是在尋找著意義。 
或許有天,我們曾認為重要的大事, 
會成為生命中的一小部份。"  

忽然在网络上看陈绮贞演唱会时, 读到网络上别人留下的这么一段话。  

觉得很贴切,很真实。  

陈绮贞老师的歌真是好好听  

特别是旅行的意义。  

喜欢老师清晰,舒服,纯净的声音。喜欢老师深深地诠释简单的歌词。喜欢老师淡雅地唱出心里的悸动。

你离开我
就是旅行的意义

a million thoughts runnin through my mind now.

some nice, some not so nice, some happy, some sad, some depressing, some uplifting, but mostly
just a random juxtaposition of incoherence sweeping through. 

i must say it's really not easy to marshal conherence from these random bits of insanity. 

but then again i recall my mantra of sec sch. 

dont think too much.

yeah. what's the point ain't it. at the end of the day all that thinking dont get you nowhere.

so i say just sit back, relax, and smell the roses. yeah. 

We're just livin' for today
For those about to rock, we salute you

For those about to rock

I want to sing k! rarrgh.

was a good day at work coz i got to slack. lol. alrighty. lets hope tomorrow will be the same. 

recently got to re-acquaint myself with the kind of music i used to listen to in secondary school. eminem, avril, all the angsty stuff. lol. kinda nostalgic. and their music still rocks. although i know about a hundred people who will disagree with me. lol. 

but for now. just some nice quiet acoustic stuff. 

I've got nothing left to say
just take me away

was dreading music today. didn't have a slightest clue what to teach.

guess what. i ended up showing the kids high school musical on youtube. AND THEY KNOW EVERY DAMN SONG. they are crazy kids. so it was pretty fun. altho i hate high school musical.

but damn i hate the p5s. they always have to make me scream and shout and put on a black face. rarrgh.

just 1 more reason for me. totally motivated and psyched now. c'mon! gonna make it.

alrighty. it's a pretty nice night. (:

pretty boring day.

but something stood out in particular. a few kids came over to try our cup stacking thing. when we asked them if they'd like to try they shook their heads. but they were obviously interested. after a while we realised they couldn't speak much english. one of them was wearing a cap that said something about a nigerian tour so i guess they were nigerian lol.

it was fun to teach them how to play cup stacking without speaking at all. just simple yes, no, and hand signals. haha. they were so delighted at learning it.

and it resonated with me. how simple communication could actually be. without words. in such times of modernity, in this knowledge based and information saturated society where everyone thrived on being vocal and expressing individual opinions, thoughts, and ideas. where everyone wanted to be heard.

we were able to connect, simply by a few dumb cups, and some laughter. 

it was pretty cool.

the importance of a smile, and the connotation it brings. 

amazing.

If heaven and hell decide
That 
they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

Ithere's no one beside you
When 
your soul embarks
TheI'll follow you into the dark

by Dan 8:14 PM


had a pretty good day. heh.

suddenly lost all inspiration again. wa lao. 

oh yes. gonna work tmr. lol. not at the school though. some funky job at sentosa. any pretty people going sentosa tmr? come find me leh. i gather it might be quite a boring job. or go out for dinnar! i end at 6. lol. 

alrightys. as usual, inspiration is zilch. 

she's so beautiful
such a beautiful disaster

saw cai ai jia in the mrt today. the campus superstar finalist. thought of complimenting her on her singing. decided not to. lol.

unsuccessfully tried to get people to go out. but i guess i'm just too picky. oh wells.

not going to ball tomorrow. gotta tuition. sigh. sucks man. 

it's been pretty long since i wrote something i felt was good. dont understand why its so hard to put down my thoughts into words these days. maybe im just not thinking. no thoughts = no words. lol.

no coherence. 

next week's gonna be tough. double periods with 5H and 5I. wow. i hope for more p1 lessons.

foresee a boring as hell weekend. 

fuck.

The thing about me is that
I really wanna let you
Open that door
And walk into my life
