Thursday, December 29, 2011 at 2:23 PM A new year?
One of the things I usually do during the last few days of December is to read the Archives in my Blog. And by archives I mean, Archives of the current year of 2011 and also particularly the archive of December 2010. HELL NO I AINT GOING BACK TO THE ARCHIVES IN 2008 / 2009 LOL * embarrassing* If you have a blog, its really nice to re-read all the nonsense you wrote in your blog for the past 2- 3 years? Blogging has always been a place for me to articulate my thoughts. Kinda like those reasons why people have diaries. A reflection paradise. HAHA. But that wasn't the reason why I started blogging. I started blogging in 2008 and back then, Blogging was the trend. I was influenced greatly by the number of my friends who have blogs and so I decided to try it out. Blogging for me, then became more of " hoping people would come visit your blog." But I guess with the grand entrance of Facebook and Twitter, blogging got lesser attention And for a period , I stopped blogging too. I think months after that, I re-entered blogging with the intention of reflecting. I believe most of us have participated in camps of any kind. and most of them have a reflection time where they would ask you to jot down your thoughts and feelings. Yeah. Blogging to me, became like that. AND TRUST ME, BLOGGING HELPS PSYCHOLOGICALLY. HAHA wont elaborate further. Anyways, 2 days left before the New Year 2012! I think I'm gonna hang out with my friends during the day of the Countdown HAHA So I have got to finish all my Homework before this SAT! CHIONG~ I've also thought of my New Year Resolution. and this time I'm really want to accomplish this. I have in total of 4 resolutions: 1. To achieve at least 5 A's for O lvl 2. To get into Grade 4 for guitar before the end of next year. 3. Stay committed to Workouts! 4. Be stronger emotionally. Next year December 2012, Imma re-read this again. And lets see what happens! Excited~ Labels: Part of the list. |

Wednesday, December 28, 2011 at 7:23 PM False Hopes
You know when you really want something, you'd do anything to get it. Right? But what if you reach to that point, where things are just not within your control and that you just can't do anything at all? Let's say you want to impress someone, you would find out what that person likes and dislikes, you would spend time to understand that person's style, you would try ways to make that person feel special. you'd do your best to help her up when she's down. you'd be far more patient than ever when she gives a negative response and you'd be there for her when she needs you. You do all that because you feel something for her. Because you know its worth it. You thought you had it all figured out. You thought that she felt the same way as you. You thought that you were building sth strong. Sometimes it ends up as the happily ever after. Sometimes you alr knew from the start that it wouldnt work out. Sometimes its that feeling after you've tried again and again and you thought that this time, things would turn out differently but you still end up crashing down in disappointment. Its that point when you feel shocked. That point when you feel like you're just not good enough. That point when you can't do anything at all. False hopes. Time is running out. Holidays are ending and it's gonna be a busy year next year. Hope it all ends well. "God only gives his toughest battles to his toughest soldiers"
If you still need time, its okay. :)

Sunday, December 25, 2011 at 11:29 PM Merry Christmas
So..... HEY! (awkward) :B HAHA! Merry Christmas! I know if you're reading this right now, it goes to show that you're #FOREVER ALONE! So get your ass off the internet and enjoy Christmas with your family and friends! No? What do you mean No? Not turning off your comp? Me neither :B Haha! My family don't really celebrate Christmas. So every year, when you guys are HOHOHO-ing I'm just at home ZZZZZZZZ-ing. LIKE A PIG! :D But this year, just to get into that Christmas spirit and also to enjoy the last few days of the "Holidays", I've decided to celebrate Christmas Eve with a few friends! And to be frank, even after celebrating Christmas Eve I still haven't got into that Christmas spirit yet. BUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY, WAS AWESOME. =D I woke up yesterday morning at around 9.30 am feeling extremely lethargic and lazy. You know in the morning,when you're still in bed and someone tries to wake you up, and you have to do your signature move the "roll-to-ignore + uuhhhhh 5 more mins moan" ? Yeah that was how i was like. Just that no one was trying to wake me up. Because I was alr wide awake. BUT I JUST DON'T WANT TO GET OUT OF BED! So alr with a Zombie Mind in the morning on Christmas eve, I was later called by my Dad to help out in painting my sister's room. Btw, painting, ISN'T EASY AT ALL! Its a good work out for all you people who wants to lose weight. Im serious. Gotta give credit to those bangala workers who paints building. So by the time I'm finished with painting it was alr 5.30 pm. And I'm exhausted like mad. I had the least satisfying bath because I had to rush to meet my friends at 6.30 pm. and you may think SINCE YOU'RE TIRED, why not just don't go out? HAHA| 1. I alr told my friends I was going 2. she was there. >.< On the way to town with my friends. I was looking at the train map and thinking " what are the odds of me meeting her? hmm" I did ask her where she was at but she didnt want to tell me. But I knew that was my chance to meet her. SO I GOTTA FIND HER! We dropped off at somerset because my friends wanted to go to the flea market at SCAPE :D At that time I remembered she started dropping hints on the location of where she's at. saying " AHH ITS REALLY HOT IN HERE!" and instantly my mind clicked. There's only one place that could fit that hint. The Flea Market. What a coincidence. Or... Fate ? :B HAHA As we were walking over to the Flea Market, my friends alr knew that my major motive was finding her and they're interested too. because they wanted to meet her! I told one of the my friend who is a girl, let's just call her Grace, I told Grace to pretend to be the girl I used to like and be real close to me HAHA! My attempt in making her Jealous! XD When we reached the Flea Market, Grace didn't know how she looked like so, the whole time i had to keep looking, I even turned my head 360 degrees to make sure i didn't miss out on anyone there. LOL jk. I was in alert mode. But of course, I didn't want to look like someone idiot searching for a beautiful girl hiding in the Flea market, I wanted to be natural. So my alert mode was not as alert? and because of that, she saw me first. and i was... shocked. I looked every where. Still couldn't find her. FAIL. LOL In disappointment, my friends and I head back to Artease to have our "dinner" To add on to my disappointment, she told me that she's "going home soon" because her friend had to go home and she wanted to accompany her. BUT THEN She suddenly said she's walking back to Burger King because her friend lost her wallet and they're hoping to find it there. At that time, I was still in Artease and i turned around in my sit, and i pointed, Burger King is just there... 2 shops away. Before I could even reply " OK IM GONNA FIND YOU" She texted me " we're now at Burger King" hmmmmm it kinda seems like she wants me to find her XD HAHA! SO.. as I walked into Burger King my heart was pounding really fast XD HAHAHA And there she was. at last, I've found her. And my god, she looks really beautiful. I followed her and her friends around the area in our "adventure" to find the lost wallet. A lot of back and forths and awkward conversations. Actually the awkward conversations came from me cuz I kinda asked weird questions. LOL BUT CANT HELP IT! I WAS NERVOUS YO! and I really wanted to talk to her. HAHA In the end, we ended up at Yishun's Police station to file a report on the lost wallet. LOL If I could record a video of them at the Police station making a report on the LOST WALLET, I won't name the video " Report on lost of wallet" I'll name it "Kopitiam session with Police Hunk" LOL they were laughing and chatting with the Police guy rather than making a report. HAHA The serious atmosphere just vanished the minute they started making the report. HAHA After that, we encountered some strange things and it was LOL HAHA One of her friends had to go home first so after she left, me her and her friend, the 3 of us hanged out at Mac Donald and we just starting chatting. Conversations got better. She asked me questions and told me a lot of things. HAHA We took a cab home and I had to send her to her doorstep. I was actually afraid that the ride with her would be awkward but it wasn't! HAHA THANK GOD SHE'S NOT SHY OR AT THAT TIME I'LL DIE. woah that rhymes haha. So when we reached her house, I accompanied her up the lift. In the lift, that time, we're quiet and she's looking at her phone I didn't want to miss that chance. But I was also afraid and nervous >.< I went over to her and pretend to see what she's looking at in her phone and then... =) I felt really great. I felt in love haha and it was like my first time. HAHA I wonder how you felt then.. >.< I sent her to her doorstep and after that went home with like my BIGGEST SMILE EVER. :D Recollecting everything that happened that night, I couldn't help but smile XD I couldn't sleep when I got home haha that night with her was the best Christmas present . HAHA I hope I didn't ruin the impression you have of me..=I This Christmas Eve has got to be the highlight of my Holidays I got to know Xue Teng and Qing Wen and I met her!! WOOHOO HAHA :) So..How did you spend your Christmas Eve? Labels: So in love with your personality. HAHA |

Monday, December 19, 2011 at 7:33 PM Regrets
Holidays are ending soon. The period where I rush my Homework. Yeah Yeah,I know. You're with me in this too right? XD Okay then, GET YOUR EYEBALLS OFF THIS WEB PAGE, AND GET STARTED! kidding~ Every year at this time when I'm left with only 2 week before the school starts, in the midst of rushing all these undone work, I'm thinking, why didn't I start to do all these earlier. HAHA Bad decision making. I bet some of you who have completed all your homework are now like KINGS kkkkkkkk fine, for all you ladies, QUEENS. Because a lot of people would be begging for your answers! And you would sit on that modern throne of yours laughing to yourself. LIKE A BOSS. Its a great feeling when you make the right decisions. and everything turns out PERFECT. But what happens when you don't? Because 7 times out of 10, I make bad decisions. And even now, like recently, I screwed up. And after you thought that screwing up was the end of your worst nightmare, all the blaming, scolding, mocking, gossiping takes place. Its not like you wanted to screw up, Its not like you weren't prepared, Its not like you planned all that to happen. And in the process of all that, Quarrels, fights, break-ups happen. Your friends starts gossiping about you. Your crush hates you. And its not like you've got no one to turn to, Its just that there's no one close enough to you to understand and give you advice. You feel torn-ed, Hurt, Lost, tired. and it all revolves around making Bad decisions. Ever felt that way before? Well. I have. It sucks doesn't it? I remember a quote saying " The hardest part is not making the decision, Its living with it." Back then, I could never really relate to the quote, I never understood how a decision could haunt you. But now I know. I've made a lot of Bad Decisions recently, And I've cause many problems to my friends and especially her. Saying sorry won't help change a thing. I guess in this society you just gotta learn to clean the mess you've made alone. Well all these are just part and parcel of learning to live life aye GOD? I guess if all these problems doesn't come now, it'll hit right at me sooner or later. and I don't want it to be the time when the stress levels are extremely high. SO THANK YOU GOD!~ After all, "If you can't live with the decision you've made, go make another one." I can feel that you're gone. Labels: And its too late now to put out the fire. |

Saturday, December 10, 2011 at 3:37 PM A reason for a Change
Haven't been posting for a while. So I've decided to share a story that I have. Bringing about a change in yourself, is not easy. AT ALL. Especially when the change is against the flow of the common Especially when it is to correct your bad habits. Most of us change, because we're constantly affected by the environment Some of us change, Because we're constantly affecting the environment. But either way, changing is challenging. That is why you have got to have a reason for that change. A reason you'd believe in. Not your friends, not your family, nobody. but you. And how I figured that out was because of a mistake I made.......... I did not like it when I was chosen to be a Councillor. To you people who are not Councillors, I'm pretty sure MOST of my Councillor friends Have rant about being chosen as a Student Councillor. To my Councillor friends, If you're still feeling that way, HOLLA AT ME CUZ IMMA WHIP YOUR ASS. But...... you can whip mine first. :D kidding~ You see, I know why you guys don't want to be Councillors, I had a hard time in my first year in Sec 1 being one too. And after my first month, I would hear small little conversations about people talking SHIT about Councillors. and then I finally realise that the side effects of being a Councillor had started sinking in: 1) People start teasing you about your black shoe. 2) Friends will not act the same way and the worst of all, 3) NO MORE BEING THAT LITTLE DEVIL THAT YOU ARE. XD But I was alr in the Council Board. There's no hey! ho! bye! There's no backing off. When i went for the interview I never actually had the intention to serve the school. But I had reason. Back when i was in kindergarten, My Grandma was the one who took care of me when my Mom and Dad had to go to work. All that i can say about myself then, is that I was an angel. on the outside XD Inside me was that little rascal, mischievous devil just waiting to come out. one day.. Grandma took my brother,who's just 1 year older, and me to the nearby supermarket. PRIME SUPERMARKET. Yes. The one at Admiralty. At that time, One of hand was carrying a plastic bag with 2 prunes in it. And the other was holding my Grandma's hand. As we got into the supermarket. We wondered off and my Grandma started finding what she needed to buy. As a kid, or even now, I LOVE SWEETS. So immediately, i went to the sweets & chocolate section. Which was further deep in the supermarket. When i got there I saw that shooting sweet. Its like you put the small sweet into the shooting thing and you aim it in your mouth and it shoots out the sweet when you press the button. I WANTED THAT. But I know Grandma wouldn't buy it :( So I had to device a plan. I told my brother to help me keep watch. My hand reached out for that sweet and... I shoved it in the plastic bag I was carrying. Me and my brother went back to find my Grandma, And the instant I found her, I hand her the plastic bag that i was carrying. I think she thought that I was tired of carrying it so she took it. she paid for the groceries, We left. ME AND MY BRO TAG TEAM LIKE A BOSS! XD Guilt didn't even sink in at that time, not because I didn't know that it was a crime because I was so gangster! THUG LIFE! XD kidding~ But 2 years after that, when i was in Primary 2, A Police group came into our school to give a talk about Crime and crime prevention. That's when everything that took place 2 years ago, started coming back to haunt me. And i was so afraid. Yes. no more gangster. That's why in Primary 3 I decided to become a prefect. and the promise I made to myself was "To change." And i think when I was in secondary school, all the responsibility and initiative thing that I've picked up in primary school just came naturally when I was in Sec1 and thats probably the reason why I got chosen. and I accepted the interview only because of that promise. Up till now, I still can remember this because it was a reason I had, it was a promise to myself. And that's why even with all the SHIT side effects, I actually enjoyed being a Councillor Because it brought me to who I am today :) The problem wasn't the mistake I made, It was the habit of doing it again. That was what I was afraid of. Its only when you've found a reason for doing sth, whether you like it or not. You'll still want to do it again. That is my reason for being a Councillor. That is my reason for a change. Whats yours? Please don't give up on me. :( Labels: You're almost there. You can do it :) |

Tuesday, December 6, 2011 at 3:25 PM Jealousy.
Being jealous is normal.
Same goes for being sad,happy,wild,afraid,etc.
I like how all these emotions come in naturally.
You don't have to put in so much effort to laugh
when you're watching that #sosingaporean video part1
There is no "LAUGHING BUTTON" that beeps
when you press it, saying
" HA. HA. HA. Its laughing time~ HA. HA. HA."
You don't have to pretend that you're afraid.
When the expression on your face as you stand
on the edge of the cliff with a Bungee cord,
TELLS IT ALL.
Or like that moment when you're about to receive your exam papers
and the minute you got it, you saw a
BIG. FAT. A1
The teacher announces your achievement to class,
and everyone starts clapping,
animals starts screaming,
and you can't help but smile with so much pride.
These feelings are miniature forms of
physical surprises we get.
Do you know why surprises are so surprising?
Because they are moments that you
never expect anything to happen.
Like on my Birthday which was recently, 22 november,
I posted about never having a Birthday celebration
with my friends before.
http://stringswithinme.blogspot.com/2011/11/birthday.html
and coincidentally, the night after, when i was in Cambodia,
my classmates,ex classmates, were standing outside my Hotel room
like one KOI queue and they called me out
and they surprised me with their awful singing *XD just kidding~*
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU~"
and also an awesome Birthday card they made.
I was so surprised. HAHA
Just like I never expected them to give me all that,
all of us will never expect ourselves to be having
this particular feeling at this particular time.
That's why Life is so interesting.
It keeps you guessing, thinking that,
today is gonna be a great day,
and it shocks you with some of the most
unpleasant events.
*SURPRISE!*
HAHA
But when these feelings comes naturally,
You tend to not have any control over it.
Like the moment when you realized that
your guy/girl friend had a crush on you,
he/she have been loving you since Day1
he/she have always been there for you
and the day that friend confessed,
You just don't feel the same way for them.
No matter how much you want to.
There's absolutely no way you can inject Love
into your heart hoping that you'll have feelings for them.
Another relevant feeling, and the one i want to talk about,is
JEALOUSY.
In a friendship, when your best friend starts hanging out with
some other random person more than you,
Jealousy comes.
In a Relationship, when your girlfriend starts chatting with
guys who are better looking and have an awesome personality,
Jealousy comes.
Like all the other feelings, Jealousy comes with a reason,
its only because you're afraid to lose that person.
It shows how important that person is to you.
Jealousy alone is fine.
because everything happens within you.
In Your heart, your mind, your soul.
That's why its okay to feel jealous.
The problem comes only in the actions you take
when you feel jealous.
and because it comes naturally,
You don't have any control over it,
and you'd start reacting in ways you'd regret later.
An analogy for me,
In spiderman 3,
Peter parker happen to get the venom or the black thingy,
and he starts to feel different.
He becomes arrogant, cocky and evil.
Being all that is fine.
BECAUSE I DON'T CARE XD
The problem comes when he starts doing stuff
that is unnecessary that hurts others.
Jealousy can ruin your day,
your opportunity,your EVERYTHING
The more we can understand the consequence
of reacting upon jealousy,
The lesser we'll be wondering in the future
why we were even jealous in the first place.
The reason why I'm blogging about this,
because I've made a terrible mistake.
and that guilt that sets in as i thought about
losing that person,
is insanely depressing.
She means a lot to me,
and yes, I do like her. I love her.
And to her;
if you're reading this,
I'm really sorry.
You say you're not mad, but i know you are...

Friday, December 2, 2011 at 11:59 AM Perfection
I Like that word. Perfection. Everyone's chasing it. Everyday in school, there are so many and really SO MANY people working so damn hard just to get to the level of perfection. Students, Teachers, Canteen stall owners, Cleaners..... ALL OF THEM HAHA Sometimes be it a normal school day or an Exam week, when we happen to walk pass a class with ALL the hardworking students, You would see all of them with their GAME FACES on. They would be gripping their pens LIKE A BOSS The minute the teacher gives the "You may start now", its Pandemonium everywhere. Everyone starts making that oh-so-irritating noise from their correction tapes and scribbling their chicken scratch all over the paper page after page after page. You look at them at glance thinking : WOAH CONFIRM PLUS CHOP A1 STUDENTS. and a few weeks later, when the exam results arrive, you don't need some round mystic ball that can tell the future, because its always: BAM! BIG FAT A1 Sometimes you get to point where you start questioning yourself on "why aren't I as diligent as them." ........................... some of us after that would start looking up to these people as a source of inspiration. "From now on, Imma work my ass off and hope that one day, I'd be as successful as them." XD ( but some of us we say it,but we don't do it) *Don't worry I'm like that sometimes too XD shhhhh* .............................. Different people sees success differently and personally for me, success is when someone becomes a man of value. So once I can be that wise,optimistic, positive thinking person who don't give a shit about all the insults,gossips that i hear from haters, then ill be successful :) But That is only success alone. Perfection... its totally different. I don't know how you guys see perfection. But From what i noticed, to a lot of people,their perception of perfection is like being successful at a same standard given. Like when one day you've succeeded in becoming that wise,optimistic person. but you're not as wise as Will smith, but you're not as optimistic as Adande, and just because you're not on the same standard of success as them,
You call yourself not perfect?
For example,
You're suppose to host a party and you want that party to be
as perfect as John's party, the one that everyone loved to go to.
So you put all your thoughts and time into the planning,
you do all the dry runs, confirmations after confirmations.
and you hope that it'll be that perfect party every one loves.
In the end, it was successful.
Everyone had a good time,
there was dancing, singing, stripping XD LOL
But just because the party wasn't like John's.
and Not everyone loved the party as much as his.
You called your party "not perfect."
.......................................
HAHA
The person who is suppose to set the standard
is you.
NOT SOME Hollywood superstar
NOT SOME Famous Singer
NOT SOME Rich person.
I think that a lot of us are always so depressed
because we get too caught up in trying to be perfect
that we forgot about what we've alr succeeded in the process.
You don't have to be perfect.
Just be yourself.
That is why they say " Nobody's perfect."
All I want as a friend or as a lover is just your care :D
Because there was never a same standard for success :D
and I haven't lost interest in you :)
Labels: Just be who you are. |
