Who You Are, When No One's Looking.

A woman confronts her terror of public speaking so she can tell her church congregation about her miraculous answer to prayer.
That's courage.

A man vows to get up twenty minutes early every morning to jog around the block, and he keeps his vow.
That's discipline.

A high-school techer patiently draws out an inattentie student and discovers she is a gifted writer.
That's vision.

A college student, overwhelmed by tests and term papers, considers dropping out, but decides to stay and study instead.
That's endurance.

A man notices his daughter's tear-stained face, and so he sits down and encourages her to tell him what's on her heart.
That's compassion.

A parent gives up an attractive job promotion so the family can stay in the town where they have made friends and put down roots.
That's self-sacrifice.

Back to what I've been doing-

School started on Monday, but there was only 1hr of lecture,
after which there was Jash, which was wrong, really wrong.
Nothing was good except the food. The performances were bad, music was bad,
we were all bored, so we left for prata.

Woke up early to fight a war against the computer and every other freshie for Add/Drop, it was damn chaotic and crazy. Handphones ringing non-stop, and only 2 laptops to accomodate more than what it can. Madness, madness. But, we did it!

Left for home, skipped school on Wed for dental- Braces are blue and blue!
And looking at how things are going, I doubt I can remove them any sooon. )):
Met F to clean up her Sheares hall, lunched at Techno-edge (haha!).
Think I didn't even clean twice as hard when I was cleaning my own hall man.
Slept the entire journey back, then dinner at Chomp chomp with D and Hk!

Thursday! I met my beloved wife, Y- SHOPPINGGG =D Heh.
But neither of us got much, I was quite upset! =(
Had a very coincidental, fated (?) incident too.(bumpedintogib!)
Yw, Artur and Shit came to look for us, so we sat down at Bk and talked.
Everyone's lives feel so different now, like we are no longer friends from the same college,
but now friends of a different phase: we seem to have moved on while they are stagnated at their service to the nation. Feels really different..

Cut my hair with Mom on Friday, bumped into almost everyone and anyone possible in Town,
Hr came to say Hi for a while,
left for Ikea- I was so disappointed cos I couldn't really get what I need! :(
Island creamery, where I saw Jien (Come on Monday!!)

Left for Cg, we played Balderdesh. OMG DAMN FUN.
And the above, is extracted from the handbook we're using for Cg.

And back to today..
I sold my sony ericsson. =( I miss it already but we had to part before it totally dies on me.
Now, I'm contemplating whether I should get an S500i, get back my V6,
or just wait. Sigh.
AND I watched Ghost Rider. I don't know if I was just tired, or it was boring, but I slept 1 hr 20 mins into the show. Heh.

Ps: I've been dreaming of the same person for 3 nights now,
is this scary, or scary?

"I wonder why people call us Engineers, We are Scientists!"

A million reasons why I love weekends,
and a billion reasons to look forward to them.
Thrillion smiles when they are well spent.

This weekend was contrasting.
An extremely busy Saturday versus a relaxed Sunday.
I like(:

Experiencing the two extremes of people's contradicting wants:
Before the tea party, I received a message from the disappointed,
and after, a call from the upset.
Both over the same thing, but for different reasons.

The tea party at Raffles Hotel was great,
though I barely met my potential classmates,
but just a PSC scholar from nj that admits next yr,
and another from vvvvv that was just enlisted.
Another one this Sat though!
I like my Profs! I think they're amazing, and inspiring people,
with a greeaaatt sense of humour. (:
(Oh yes, needless to say, the food was MMMMMMMM, Heavenly.)

Went Botak's AGAIN for the second time this week,
yeah what an addict.
The queue was *%$#%$^$,
and I just realised it is right next to the Block I helped B with his work!
WLEZ.
Rushed down for Spiderman,
but met B & Elane (finally!) for a short while,
watched the gig at B&J, and bumped into more people.
Spidey was awesome, awesome!

Oh! Met Mamadaooo for dinner on Friday, unofficially celebrating her last day of work at XXX Poly.
Her phone went cranky and I spent 20mins walking around Bugis hoping to bump into her,
and hoping she'd have the brains to just wait for me at Sakae.
But guess not! Heh heh.
Fulfilling dinner, but unfulfilling shopping trip.
At least I got a pencil case, yay! (:

"wuo pu che tau"

Hash, you are so cute. (:

Anyway,
my greatest nightmare has come true.
hoho.
peels on my shoulder.
I bumped into Tiffos and showed them to her. ):

Accompanied Seef to get her dress today and it's lovely(: (:
We managed to get her shoes and ear rings (super last minute right) within 3 hours. (we are goood!)

And then I met my Mom & Sis at Bugis (Like again)
My sis got the new sony ericsson z610i. or something like that.
the pink one. Like omg, bimbo alert. HAHA. But it's a nice phone(:

Anyhow,
after tmr, I'm staying off Far East and Bugis for a week.
I've been there at least once is 2 days the past few weeks.

"But also, clubbing damn ex la. Once in a while is alright. If not, not only is my skin burnt, my pocket also burnt until nth left."

And omg, it may not be funny to you, but it cracked me and Seef up like mad.
