COMMON TEST REALLY BLOWS MY MIND! It simple sucks to the core! On top of that, I haven't really remember all those facts and figures on those topics.
Anyway, my LCD tv finally arrived. The clarity and sharpness really surpasses the normal CTV; power consumption is also lesser than that. =D
Received news that on the 8th that there will be a primary school gathering! Simple unbelieveable la! After a wholly 5 -6? years? I'll be looking forward to that too!~
I love you so deeply, I love you so much.
I love the sound of your voice, and the way we touch.
I love your kind, thoughtful way.
The joy you bring, to my life everyday.
I love you today, as I have from the start.
And I will love you forever, with all my heart.
I wrote your name in the sky, but the wind blew it away.
I wrote your name in the sand, but the waves washed it away.
I wrote your name in my heart, and forever it will stay.
Anyway, no more updates till that damn blardy CT is over!

An extract of which I read and I reflected upon...
Love is the source of life. Within the twelve links of interdependent orgination is 'grasping' or 'attachment' and we are in this cycle of death and rebirth because of attachment and love.
Relationship and love does not mean just the love between men and women, but also between parents and children, friends, siblings, a person and his country and so on. These are all expression of love. Even a person's hobby is also a special feeling, a kind of love.Everyone needs love but there is polluted love, pure love, possessive love and sacrificial love. Emotions are like water. There is an old adage, 'A raft is carried by water but can also be capsided by it'. We should therefore handle our emotions with care.Nobody belong to another person, not even his/her beloved. It is not possible to own a person totally, nor is there any assurance that one will never lose the beloved.
The sacred truth of relationship lies in having no expectations. Loving a person means not wanting or excpecting anything from the person you love. When you love a person, you are willing to treat him/her well because you feel happy doing so. Why should we be w/o expectations in relationships? This is becaouse we cannot always give the other anything expect love. Why does love seem to become a burden for some in the end? The main reason is that we think that love means possessing the other person.In reality, it is not possible to be totally of one mind with another. There are things you enjoy doing together, and also things that you do independently.
Love is giving, and not taking. It is not calculative, because in the first place, you were born having nothing. The strength of love can make people forget everything. Conditional love could be so petty that it would not tolerate even a single grain of sand. When you are able to love, don't give it up easily. Do not harbour regrets or waste the present moment. Have dreams of the future. Happiness is not in having a lot but in not being calculative.You cannot control the weather, but you can control your moods and play your role to the best of your ability. To be happy, one should cherish what one has and forget about what you don't have. Greed is the real poverty, contentment is real wealth. You can use love to enjoy the world but also lose it all with hatred.

SOL Ref
In order to write further, the only way was to indulge myself back in the memories of yester-years. Complementing it, would be reopening my personal story, "The Sentiments of Love". As I slowly read through from chapter 1, it all seemed like all that had happened was just yesterday. Everytime it happens; I have tried controlling my emotions, I really did. No doubt, I do have a reasonable high EQ, but does this have to happen everytime I reminisce about the past?
The past - It was indeed a beautiful tale; A fairytale that happened so magically to me then. It had superceded any expected, possible conformations that could take place during that period. It was just indescribable. Imagine that - From a personal confidante to whom someone I truly had feelings for. How would I have expected something so magical, so coincidental to have bore fruits of the future? Everytime I play that song, read that note; it would seemed like a thousand knives being pierced into my heart! That feeling is still so adamant of leaving my memory...
Life is just full of impermanence, so full of uncertainties. I promised myself not to live in the shadow of the past; have I done so?

Oceans apart day after day. And I slowly go insane. I hear your voice on the line, But it doesn't stop the pain. If I see you next to never, How can we say forever? Wherever you go, Whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you. Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks I will be right here waiting for you. I took for granted, all the times, That I though would last somehow. I hear the laughter, I taste the tears But I can't get near you now. Can't you see it baby? You've got me goin' CrAzY! Wherever you go, Whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you. Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks, I will be right here waiting for you. I wonder how we can survive, This romance, But in the end if I'm with you I'll take the chance. Oh, can't you see it baby? You've got me goin' cRaZy! Wherever you go, Whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you. Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks I will be right here waiting for you.
No doubt, the above text might have been copied and edited. But nevertheless, this is one way which I can relate my feelings. Everytime I try to forget her, and I always fail. Perhaps the bonding and misses have been strongly deep-rooted in me. I miss her, I really do. But only I will know. All these, though I've considered, I'll still pursue. So what if the time is short? So what if other people come to know about it? I do not mind. Does she? I do not know. All that I know is that, the AMOUNT time that we spend if we are ever together, does not play the major priority in life. At least it once happened, and it has truly touched our hearts. Love, cannot be measured using time, but only the devotion within.
~~Some things in life catches your eye, but very few things in life catches you heart ~~

Saw that? Gradient Centrifugation! Looks cool huh.. hahas. Done by using different concentrations of sucrose solutions and spinning it at high speeds. Lols.
Finally lent Darren "Destiny's Cries"; hope he would know how to utilise it properly yea? Ehs, don't you spoil or misplace my book! I will stuff your Anterior Twins up your Posterior End if it happens... =D
To put it simply, find a song which truly depicts what you are feeling right now, be it happy or sad. View the lyrics and devotedly comprehend your reflection. As for me, I've choses "Only an Ocean Away - Sarah Brightman" cos it really reflects what I am feeling. The numbers beside the paragraphs are known as hai-kus?...
Only An Ocean Away (A grieving song)
1 = I see a shadow every day and night. I walk a hundred streets of neon lights, Only when I'm crying. Can you hear me crying.
2 = So many times you always wanted more, Chasing illusions that you're longing for. Wish I wasn't crying. Can you hear me crying.
3 = There's an ocean between us. You know where to find me. You reach out and touch me. I feel you in my own heart.
4 = More than a lifetime. Still goes on forever. But it helps to remember You're only an ocean away.
5 = Was there a moment when I felt no pain. I want to feel it in my life again. Let it be over now. Oh Oh over now.
6 = 'Cause I remember all the days and nights We used to walk the streets of neon lights Oh I want you here with me. Oh be here with me.
7 = There's an ocean between us. You know where to find me. You reach out and touch me. I feel you in my own heart.
8 = More than a lifetime Still goes on forever. But it helps to remember You're only an ocean away.
9 = So many times you always wanted more, Chasing illusions that you're longing for. Wish I wasn't crying. Can you hear me crying.
10 = There's an ocean between us. You know where to find me. Just reach out and touch me. I feel you in my own heart.
11 = More than a lifetime It seems like forever. But I'll always remember You're only an ocean away.
12 = Only an ocean away.
Genre 1, 6: I see my own shadow while I take a stroll down a streets of neon lights (alone). The shadow represents me, my character and my reflections. It shows that while I walk down the lane of Neon Lights, in deep thoughts, mostly thinking of the unhappy past while I handle the present. Given that Neon Lights comprimises of the many different luminous colours with inert gases, the complexity of the situation is much more that what I can handle. Crying over the mistake I made, it is too late for salvation...
Genre 2, 9: She wished me happiness but I can't hold my tears. Trickling slowly down my cheeks, I try to contain the sense of desolation in my heart. Unfortunately, I failed. We had always wanted to be together but Providence denied this relationship. Chasing the illusions that we pictured, sitting under the sunset, leading a normadic life we both preceived. Filled with love and serenity and tranquility, we live the rest of our lives in the meadows up the mountain high.
Genre 3, 7, 10: There's an ocean between us means that there is still a clear line of difference in our character and spiritual being. Much as we wanted to defy the Heaven's the continue being connected spiritually, Love leads the way. When we both reach out our hands to hold on to the futuristic goal, we were clear of our divinations that the Lord had dictated. Nevertheless, we are still able to feel the strong bond of Love that we share...
Genre 4, 8, 11: More than a lifetime, regardless of past, present or the future. No cycles of reincarnation would do us part. No doubt, we are seperated but "ONLY" an ocean away. "Only" depicts that we are close spiritually also trying to overcome that distance between us. Distance was not a factor in our hearts, that's that!
Genre 5: Time was passing minute by minute, feelings were fading second by second. What ever that matters did not have an impact on me anymore! However, I still loved her, though my mind tells otherwise.
Alright... I'll end here... I can't find anything more to fill in liao.. bye!~

Only an Ocean Away
I have loved this song for a long time.. =D
There was there a moment when I felt no pain;I want to feel it in my life again.
'Cause I remember all the days and nights;
We used to walk the streets of neon lights,
I want you here with me.
There's an ocean between us.
You know where to find me.
Just reach out and touch me.
I feel you in my own heart.
More than a lifetime; It seems like forever.
But I'll always remember - You're only an ocean away... ... ...
=== ("v")-ing you always ===
This is for the special one that is in my ("v"). You know who you are though. There are certain things that need not be spelt out so straightforwardly. As long as you know I have you, and you have me for support and pillar of strength in future, nothing else matters.
Nice Date today huh, 05/06/07! My timetable is all hay-wire; My biological clock isn't functioning properly! And, that sucks! So much for being a year 2. Still remembered what those seniors (present year 3s) said, "Your timetable would be so packed till you wished you had the same for year1s where there are long breaks!" WHAT HOLY CRAPPY LOGIC IS THAT?!
For past weeks, that stupid timetable of mine had so many blanks in between! WTH! Yea, but one thing that they said coincides with mine - THERE ARE SO MANY FREAKING BLARDY REPORTS to be completed. Anyway, just two words to describe school and its modules - INTERESTINGLY BORING!~ except for... ... =D
My driving practical test would be on the 29/10. God bless me that I pass! lols.

UOBAM
bOrInG!~!~!~ 2 days not doing any academic and school stuff. Good and Bad in some ways. Today, a Sunday, an exceptional Sunday? In the sense that I did not touch a single report! woots!
Yesterday... Went to the UOB @ Rivervale to open an Investment Account under the UOBAM. Of course, as usual also, I went to invest in the "United Enhanced Income Fund". Sounds good to me too. But that Personal Banker of mine wasn't that up to standard than that of Maybank's. Well, that fund, not capital guaranteed, but it yields 10% interests per annum. On top of that, if the fund performs well, extra dividends would be given. =D I guess, everything has its risks and benefits. At least, my time in UOB was well spent during the holidays! Btw, I've gotten my Platinum Card already!! That rawks!
3 more weeks to Common Test; I haven't started studying. The modules are just so content heavy. SOME of those darn lectures are boring me off the chair too! Come off it, no point doing those stupid and useless feedback at the end of the semester when you see no improvements! arigh!
