last weekend

was really happening.
i was excited over this race cos we were more prepared for it.
and for me coxing for this race is kinda bad. :(
especially for tertiary... sorry gers.
all along i knew coxing for reg atta is not easy cos you have choppy waters and the damm string to hold and the narrow race course.
boo.
everything can be better after its over...
but at that moment i did gave my all.

but if you think u can do a better job.
den come ba.

i'm planning to go back to rowing. :)
i wanna try, that is...
start slow first to see if my shoulders are fine..
coxing and drumming for the snr boat really makes me wanna join them back in rowing!
alot.
they really really improved.
its so so so heartening!
when i recall the "bath tub" trng session back before last jun race.
wow!
really different.
i did notice individuals who improve too.
strength wise
and rowing as a boat wise.

it is the best when everyone in the boat pointing their paddle at the same precise angle and pulling the water and recover at the same angle again.
i see that from the back.
the highest level of synchronisation.
to get one boat one stroke.

LONGER
HARDER
DEEPER
YES YES YES!!!

NICE~

another thing that make me feel heartened is the new appointment holders!
woo.
goddess
ash
jane.

i feel the 3 of them will compliment and support each other.
a good mix!

a pretty good end to my last reg atta.
:)
now every race is kinda the last.
oh no.

and dammm 10 days to exams
god bless pang.

and i am VOICELESS AGAIN!
hais
3rd time le
boo hoo hoo
seriously i feel better being a cox den a drum.
i feel i contribute more and have more awareness of what is happening around.
cos the cox sees the best.
can judge the situation better than when i drum,
cos everythings seems so opposite you know.
i'm like going backwards!
haha
and i olways scream my throat out...
boo.
i'm scared that i spoil it...

okay no talking for this weeeeeeek ppl.
dun be surprise if i dont talk to you.
pls be understanding okay!!!!!!!

alrite peace out to study.
BIOMATERIALS here i come.

我怀念的

想问为什么　 我不再是你的快乐

可是为什么　 却苦笑说我都懂了

自尊常常将人拖着 把爱都走曲折

假装了解是怕真相太赤裸裸

狼狈比失去难受

我怀念的　是无话不说　

我怀念的　是一起作梦

我怀念的　是争吵以后　

还是想要爱你的冲动

我记得那年生日　

也记得那一首歌

记得那片星空　

最近的右手

最暖的胸口

谁忘了

我怀念的 是无言感动

我怀念的 是绝对炙热

我怀念的 是你很激动求我原谅

抱著我的痛 我记得你在背后　

我记得 我颤抖着

记得感觉汹涌

最美的烟火　

最沉的相拥

谁爱的太脆弱　

谁过头爱了

谁要走我的心

谁忘了那就是承诺

谁自古自里走

谁忘了看着我

谁让爱变执着

谁忘了要给你温柔

还是想要爱你的冲动

this is funny

side track while searching for cartoons for my prof comm presentation!!

take a look..

flew again

my weeeekend flew away again...
but i really cant settle down to my work at home any more.
home seems like a relaccccc place for me now.
(err, not tat i dont relac in hall..)
home is a total relac place cos i haven seen them for a week and i think i shld spend the time checking them out and ask if anything interesting happens when i'm not aroundddd...

and tutu (my pet rabbit! 兔兔! haha) is really a shit bucket! shit dammm alot lah. every 2 days gotta clean up his toilet.

YAH my rabbit is TOILET TRAINED OKAY!
HA HA!

but sometimes little milo-cereal-like shit do appear randomly in his cage.
hur

he's so nice so nice so nice to touch~ i just love stroking him.
he will lie down to let u touch him!! hee
but i think he's quite lazy.. never step out of the cage before.
even if i remove the entire cage cover, the most he did was to pop his head out...

hmm

i will showoff my pet rabbit soon! when i got some pics of him.
hehe

TMR GOT QUIZ AND FREAK!
I AM NOT PREPARED.

the stupig engineer and society.
DAMMMMM
i must hand in my part by tonite!!!
by tonite
by tonite


I shall jsut anyhow do it.
and i got a quiz on tue!!!!
sian ahhh.

interesting read.

http://www.newstarget.com/Report_water_cure_0.html

go read this.
many things are blinded by money. including health and medical.

the freaking rich

The entire economies of the 48 poorest countries adds up to less money than you'll find in the Swiss bank accounts of the three richest people in the world.

How can they be soooooooooo freaking rich????

grandma left.

saddening.
when the very next time i visited her, she was lying there motionless.
heart-wrenching.
when she was living a minute ago and the next she lies in the coffin.
grievous.
when i remembered she used to play ball with me when i was young.
sorrowful.
as we prayed for her, wishing she will go to a better land.
painful.
when the flame has to burn everything down to ash.
its really the end.

when the spirit left the body.
its merely a shell to house our soul.
something that you cant bring with you,
something that will age, will fail, will rot.
something that has to turn to ash.
the soul is the life.
the soul that gave the body a purpose.

its time we take a look at what we are made up of inside.
did we spend too much time decorating the outside and ignore our deprived soul.


was so sad when i saw my mum cried so badly.
:(

hais but i think it frees the soul becos the body is too tired to carry on.
解脱。

bye grandma.

sians.
so many things to do and i just dont feel like doing it
i hate reading off the monitor.
it tires out my eyes!!
RARRRR

知足常乐

Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want; it is the realization of what you already have.

we actually have alot.
it just depends on who you are comparing with.

we are forgetful.
we forgets what we already have.

we are loved.
because each of us mean the world to somebody out there.

we need to appreciate more.
because you never know how much it is going to hurt if it's missing one day.

churn it out!!!

i must hand in my assignment
i must hand in my assignment

pretty cool i'm the only student in the gang now. they are all working or looking for job (hazel only). so for many things i should have the student plan or the student price! haa

dream on.

k boxed with the gers just now. and it was funny lah, with jolene the joker there. omg. she was actually named after that song! haha the song is about this gorgeous lady who steals ppl's boyfriend! haa *faints*
i din know so many of the gers can sing ok! *impressed!*

den i'm soooooo sooooo screwed! cos i haven start my lit review....
okie i'm feeling scared now... ROAR. I must STARTTTTT!

but i'm down with a headache now.. arrr i hope i dun fall sick..
i could feel the sore crawling up my throat now. :(

ohhh i went to the chiropractic again. this time no massge from the lady. boo.
not that i miss it but more of i tot i going to have it! ha
he taught me some exercised which i need to do to strengthen my muscle and of which
i haven do them yet.... argh

*gloom.

wasting my holiday away/

hello people,



last week of hols liao. and i kinda did not accomplish anything since i'm back from china.

slacking big time!



ok other than meeting prof for fyp

other than catching up with old friends (jss people! and siok! ok oso jss too haa)

other than visiting the dentist

other than watching many movies..

other than jq's convo..



fyp ah fyp. STARTS NOW!

yup need to hand in lit review first day of school. errm haven start writing yet. still figuring out how to write a lit review and reading JOURNALSsss. my eyes get tired so easily. boo.

BUT i must jiayou for fyp!!! i will do my best!



okie to brace or not to brace?

hmm no exact need for it and i need to pluck out 4 good molars! i kinda 舍不得my teeth leh.

like 无缘无故 pull them out for wat? hmm so still thinking..



movies!! okie darling and i caught Transformers (robot in disguise~), Simpsons and Harry.

transformers the best! its funny here and there.

harry is disappointing.. boring and the fighting scenes are not that fantastic. the way they fought with their wands are like weird, twisting here and there.. contorted..



OHH talking about twisting here and there!

i visited a chiropractic doctor.

because of my arm. wahhh he twist and pull me and crack my bones! he says he is putting them back into position.

regarding my shoulder. its due to the nature of our sport. muscle growth imbalance. apparently muscle on my left chest grows more than the right and this cause it to pull my left shoulder forward. OUT OF PLACE! yeah so needa put in back... and strengthen the back muscle.

hmm pretty cool i think, no medications! purely depending on the body to heal itself!

i got massaged by a physio lady. argh its was agony! i need to visit them again next week

and it cost me a bomb can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sigh.

broke.



oooh late. i better sleep early. so many bad habits in me. bad eating habits. bad sleeping habits.

i need to go for rehab!

okie trng tmr. but i will be there to cox only. cant row.

kinda freaky, cos when i'm back, everything that happened in china just seems so far away already.
the eating and eating and eating days are gone!

okie honestly i miss the food.
yaya i know the food is either oily or salty or oily and salty.
but somehow i missed it leh.

i miss the different taste of the chicken and duck.
the very sweet egg of the chicken.
the different types of veggie.
the bamboo shoots
the fried stuff like the river prawns, corn, prata like pancake...
i miss the SUPPER!
the road side BBQ stall.... just so near my hotel..
every meal we kinda have more than 9 meal course!

for now.
RELAXXXXXX

okie my flight is at 715am

if i got a chance i will post something here again!

BYE PPL!
2 fat weeks, i willl miss my bed.

the 7 days before the race.

she really never failed to give me strength. everything she said hits a cord in my heart and many others. i guess its bcos we all have been so emotionally tied to phoenix.

i no longer contributes to the back pack.
now my heart goes to all the 10 pairs.

saw the video the orange and blue team made.
we are very similar. truely.
we celebrate friendship just the same.
the every single one in the team.

at the end of their video, it says.
the journey may be over
but a new one has already begun..
June 2007, see you at the finishing line.
i respect them.
i respect them as a competitor.

their journey did began earlier than us.
they have the driving force to take up the challenge once again.
to stand tall and walk on..

but my team is special.
the gers are just special and unique in their own ways.
we have been on this journey for so long, leaving our footsteps, our laughter, our sweat, our pain, our disappointment, our achievements, our struggle together on the land and on the sea.
this sport needs all our hearts.
thru sweat and tears we stand together.
when our hearts beat as one, that's when we fly/

take pride in being here and now
with every single one of us.
we will take whatevr that comes our way
face on.
eyes wide.

i'll see you at the chequered buoy too.

happy papa day!!

okie today is kinda rare cos i'm home after trng!

hur

guess its good to have trng at bedok, cos like this we wont want to go walk walk ard in town and can settle our meal at the bedok market!

good mans.

missed the free ride home from papa dawn. took train with west gang. we wanna ensure a place to sit and Zz so we took the train to pasir ris and back. HA

haa as if it is a big secret rite..

anyway, dears arm.. 增气一点好不好！！！

2 more weeks and den i'll send u on leave.

great that mum and dad are back to normal now! heh think my injury is quite worth it.

=D

okie looking forward for sakura with darling tmr too :)

and no cramps this month!!!

whee! guess is the no-tap-water diet that i had.

heh

lalala

happy moood.

the rainbow and us. :)

thanks dawn for the pic!

wat man.

wat have i been doing?

everything seems to be so screwed up.
i think i haven get by a month without any external or internal injury.
first was my stupig ankle ever since stand chart. it was on and off and i spent quite a lot of money on treating it. okie lets see..

sports doctor, DR. LOW.
1st visit - $150.00
2nd visit - $120.00

happily went to see him cos cuimei says can claim frm sch. which in the end i did not bcos dad says dont lie.. okie and so i did not. most of the time the doc just told me to rest.. yea.
den it got better for awhile but when i go back to running, it hurts again. tmd.

somebody told me abt uncle saim,
1st and only visit - any amount but i gave $15.00

boo din work for me. my leg became v suan the next day and the pain is still there. sux.

den mum and dad brought me to a chinese sinseh.
3 visits - $35.00 bucks each. so thats $105.00

i would say he's not too bad, i see improvement after the 2nd visit. slightly but there is still.

den i concluded that i really really need a new pair of running shoes. dr low says my ds trainer doesnt suits my feet type. so off i went to running lab to search for a suitable pair. asics GT. bought it at queensway, cos its definitely cheaper!
new shoes which i dint wear - $138.00

BUT.

i dont feel comfortable in that pair. its like bulky and dont fit my feet closely too.
pissed!
so i took out my 3 pairs of asics and analyze.
the best pair i had was the blue ds trainer i had in year one. it suits me very well. den i realised the orange ds and the gt were too broad. i got narrow feet.
and so i went to buy an in sole to put in my old pair of shoes becos it was quite worn out.
insole - $39.90

all these was from dec 06 to may 07. argh and i dont want to calculate the total amount i've spent.

den from mid may till now. cut my finger at work. splint in pinky. top arm pain. left back pain. eating glucosamine to take care of my joints and the weakness and restricted motion of my top arm is really irritating me. red told me abt a massage she's been going and so we went together last sunday.
full body massage for 1 hr - $40.00

it felt pretty good to be massage but the neck and back was quite hard on me..
den again, my top arm prob was not any better..

ytd nite was such a disaster. stepped into the gap in the pontoon which i dunno why my eyes got stamps or watever. stepped right into the gap, hit my thigh at the edge.. that was pretty painful that i din even know i cut myself.. and wats worse was i hit ham's head with the paddle.. arghhh..

sorry hams :(
i better stop being too close behind you..
i really hope you are fine..

hams fel yeling cleaned my wounds. thanks thanks gers. thanks for being there:)

and i'm such a gu niang.. RAR
irritating.

jq brought me to the clinic and got me a tentanus jab and some antibiotics and anti inflammation pills.
doc visit for cuts and bruise - $151.00

faints.
FAINTS.

wats more?...
:S

things at home not on the bright side too. mum and dad like not talking...
please, please stop the cold war....
i dunno wats wrong and wats making mum so pisssed.
anyway i haven seen them for 3 days. every nite i came back they were asleep...
i'm sorry for not being around..

its so depresssssing.

come back ok?

well i dunno.

talked to red some time back,
she reminded me something.

why when someone under perform, ppl will think she's skiving?
why not ask if she's feeling ok? if she's sick?
is it bcos there's too much doubt in each other?
are we spending most of the time picking on each other, rather than really caring?

sets me thinking..

one cannot tell somebody to feel the way they should be feeling.
a feeling has to be felt.
bcos it is a feeling mah...
so only actions speak louder.

where's the joy?
mayb it comes from getting wat we ultimately want, but, as the complimentry product.
like enjoying fishing purely on fishing and not on the fish that were caught.
she's right..
i think just happy rowing and enjoying everything of it will unconciously bring her to the rewarding goal..
kinda just do it purely bcos you like it.
of cos that includes liking the nature of it. (competitive)

but with that cup, trng just to win and forgetting abt what is in it..
scary.
stressful. =\

used to be so looking forward to team lunch after every trng!
just hanging around and walking around with the gers..

seeing each other for so many times a week.
but why does it feel empty sometimes with some?
if doing things for the sake of doing it,
is definitely different from doing things with an intention that you are convinced of.
bcos wat's within is gone.
no substance.

like reading your notes 3 times before exams will give u an A.
but reading it 3 times and reading with your eyes only doesnt count.
reading has to plus understanding..
like going for meals together doesnt mean we will get to know each other better and get bonded.
i can go for lunch with my collegues for 6months, 5 times a week and we are just hi-bye.
but getting together is a means of getting to know better.
by talking and sharing heart to heart...
talking as if we are standing on the same level..
no one tries to over rule or judge too quickly.
it is difficult to talk when someone is agressive and that will only make the other defensive.
talk like friends~
its not that easy bcos you cant pretend to be one.
erm hard to describe, its just a feeling thing.

to row for somebody on the boat.
you will know it when you know it.
you cant tell someone to row for someone when she just feels like errmm your neighbour.. your tutorial mate.. your course mate..

Read in the papers last time and told quite a few of my frens,
Best water drinking time,
7am to 9am and 2pm to 5pm.
most efficient in flushing out of toxins!

not advisible to drink alot before bed time, if you had enuff of water during the day, you wont feel thirsty in the nite (this i'm not sure if really true, somebody can go try it and tell me! ha)
dont only drink when you are feeling thirsty! not enuff~

for ppl who have pain in the joints like me, dun take too much cold drinks!

drink plain water! its good for you. CHEERS.

theNIGHTsafari~!

wHeee.. it was planned a long to ensure that jiaqi can go night safari with me after exams! haa

friday night with no training on sat morning, a rare chance for some night outings and i never been to there before, so he's bringing me =)

we went to cck to take bus 927 and we didnt know the frequency is like every half an hour, so we went to fill up our tummy first.
the bus there isnt v long, i think 20mins.

first stop is the animal show. it was pretty interesting to watch it in the night and of cos no flashed photography and of cos, some idiots will just take a pic with the flash. haha but everyone will 'OEIiiiiiiii' when they saw a flash. haha but many of them are not locals you see.. mayb oei is a universal language too. heh
one of the tricks they play again and again is the animal-go-missing act. haha this time its a big python call maggie. then after they found it the host want to invite a macho man up on the stage, i was so eager to push jq up but he doesnt want to.. haha (there goes a free ben & jerry's). an angmoh went up instead and they threw the big snake over his shoulders la. i think the snake is heavy.. it takes 4 of the staffs to carry it. ha

den the tram ride! its abt 45 mins long and bring you ard to see some animals that you wont get to see on the walking trails. i think the animals were too close to us for comfort. jq and i keep thinking that the deers or the hyhenas can easily jump out! we saw alot of deers and cows thou. haha all the predators were like asleep, like the lions, the tigers, the leopards, the aligators... (Zzzz) heh make me fall asleep on the tram too. ha i dunno why i got tired.. must be the work in the day!

after the tram, we went to walk around on the walking trails. i honestly felt abit scared... cos its like dark and like not many ppl walking ard... i was afraid that we went on the wrong path and end up in some animals' den la!! haha useless worries i know.. actually i'm more scared that some insects fly into my hair la. heh it was quiet most animals are not that responsive other than the otters. they were so noisy and they keep looking at you and finding ways to get closer to you. or mayb becos we have food. heh

went to see the leopards and it was sleeping just beside the glass pane. wow it is BIG! imagine it is your pet cat.. haha i wish~ seldom u can get to see it so close up you know.. very nice fur they have.. and think they get abit senile after being kept in the place for long, the other leopard just keep pacing up and down in circles..

the tiger is next interesting one. it was AWAKE. oki, more than that. it was standing and facing the glass pane, there were 2 angmohs squatting in front looking at it. den when jq and i were walking towards the tiger, it suddenly ran forward to the glass pane and the 2 angmohs jumped! haha scared them. the tiger must be thinking, stupig humans.. easily entertained... haha den the tiger bo hiew us already.. it walked away.. heh

we went into a room with bats inside, i was quite reluctant at first but i went in in the end, hiding behind jq.. haa. the bats were big lah. i tot they were the small small ones we saw sometimes on the trees. no lor, times 5 man. Eeee you can easily use your hand to touch it lor.. they were so NEAR! haa den i dragged jq out already.

was really tired after we finished walking around... and i slept all the way back... Zzz

poor darling have to cab his way home from my place.. :(

it was fun! i love it...

this weekend just flew passed~ boo

next week end will be fun too cos its mother's DAy and Jiaqi's birthday!

endure the WEEK!!! guess it wont b that bad cos i have trngs to look forward to now!

nitenitenite..
ZZzz *crampsssss*
damm

the day at work after a holiday.

oh well, any how i also need to come back to work, so no point sulking.

these days when i sleep, i think i'm only using one nostril to breathe. i guess its nose block but cannnot be everynite nose block one correct?!!

and thats why i google it.

okie something interesting that i saw.

Nadi Sodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing)
If you don't do anything else, this is a simple yoga breathing exercise that can be done virtually anywhere, anyplace. You will be glad you did. It is simply dynamic!

The name alternate nostril breathing is due to the fact that we alternate between the two nostrils when we do the breathing. Yogis believe that this exercise will clean and rejuvenate your vital channels of energy, thus the name nadi sodhana (purification of nadis or channels).

With this exercise, we breathe through only one nostril at a time. The logic behind this exercise is that normal breathing does alternate from one nostril to the other at various times during the day. In a healthy person the breath will alternate between nostrils about every two hours. Because most of us are not in optimum health, this time period varies considerably between people and further reduces our vitality. According to the yogis, when the breath continues to flow in one nostril for more than two hours, as it does with most of us, it will have an adverse effect on our health. If the right nostril is involved, the result is mental and nervous disturbance. If the left nostril is involved, the result is chronic fatigue and reduced brain function. The longer the flow of breath in one nostril, the more serious the illness will be.

Benefits

The exercise produces optimum function to both sides of the brain: that is optimum creativity and optimum logical verbal activity. This also creates a more balanced person, since both halves of the brain are functioning property.
The yogis consider this to be the best technique to calm the mind and the nervous system.
The Scientific Confirmation of Alternate Nostril Breathing
Medical science has recently discovered the nasal cycle, something that was known by the yogis thousands of years ago. Scientists have recently found that we don't breathe equally with both nostrils, that one nostril is much easier to breathe through than the other at any particular time and that this alternates about every three hours. The yogis claim that the natural period is every two hours, but we must remember these studies were done on people who do not have an optimum health level.

Scientists also discovered that the nasal cycle corresponds with brain function. The electrical activity of the brain was found to be greater on the side opposite the less congested nostril. The right side of the brain controls creative activity, while the left side controls logical verbal activity. The research showed that when the left nostril was less obstructed, the right side of the brain was predominant. Test subjects were indeed found to do better on creative tests. Similarly when the right nostril was less obstructed the left side of the brain was predominant. Test subjects did better on verbal skills.

Medical science has not quite caught up with the ancient yogis yet. The yogis went one step further. They observed that a lot of disease was due to the nasal cycle being disturbed; that is, if a person breathed for too long through one nostril. To prevent and correct this condition, they developed the alternate nostril breathing technique. This clears any blockage to air flow in the nostrils and reestablishes the natural nasal cycle. For example, the yogis have known for a long time that prolonged breathing through the left nostril only (over a period of years) will produce asthma. They also know that this so-called incurable disease can be easily eliminated by teaching the patient to breathe through the right nostril until the asthma is cured, and then to prevent it recurring by doing the alternate nostril breathing technique. The yogis also believe that diabetes is caused to a large extent by breathing mainly through the right nostril.

Technique

-Close the right nostril with your right thumb and inhale through the left nostril. Do this to the count of four seconds.
-Immediately close the left nostril with your right ring finger and little finger, and at the same time remove your thumb from the right nostril, and exhale through this nostril. Do this to the count of eight seconds. This completes a half round.
-Inhale through the right nostril to the count of four seconds. Close the right nostril with your right thumb and exhale through the left nostril to the count of eight seconds. This completes one full round.
Start by doing three rounds, adding one per week until you are doing seven rounds.

Alternate nostril breathing should not be practiced if you have a cold or if your nasal passages are blocked in any way. Forced breathing through the nose may lead to complications. In pranayama it is important to follow this rule: under no circumstances should anything be forced. If you use the nostrils for breath control they must be unobstructed. If they are not, you must practice throat breathing.

i dint know my 2 nostrils dont work together! hmmm i think that exercise is quite easy to try..

my phone!

okie i'm here to boast abt my phone.
the nok8a 6300.

it is being advertise as a simple phone which dont need any thing extras.
but it has all i need!

good enuff for me.

wat i like best is the calendar and notes, they can b displayed on the main screen all the time.
and olmost everything can be re-organised. how to want which to come first and wat you dont olways use to the back. i think this is great, save time scrollling ard... and there are quite a few format u can choose. list.. grids.. grids with names.. you can personalise so many things. i like~

the whole phone itself is very connected, like the mp3 can be used for ring tones or alarms. the videos can b used for screen saver..there are just alot of possibilities for you to try to play around!

oki then the rest are basics. but they are more user friendly now! the usual stuffs are still there but they have expanded to more options for users.

the screen colour also improved alot. guess there are more pixels on the screen now compared to previous colour screen nok8a phones.. (heh quoted frm jiaqi)

exterior is fantastic too, i love it at first sight! black with silver (stainless steel ok!) heh
silm with smooth corners, ergonomics put to use!

blue keypad backlight.. i like~

okie i'm loving this phone more now! nok8a is back with style~

i saw light.

"In other words,

it's not the actual situation itself that "pushes the button"...

it's what you think it MEANS."

thinking too much is bad.

thinking too much negative stuff is even worse.

letting your emotions get the better of you is kind of like self destruction.

是自找的。

why do i have to take so long to realise..

but i'm glad i see the light now...

boo!

the so imperfect me.

but..

when i turn, i still see you there beside me..

i thank god..

ehhhh

to be a better person

still remember in primary school or secondary school if i dun wish to participate in anything or go for any outings, i just hand in a parents' letter and that settle it all.

but it doesnt work anymore!

these days, when i started my IA, something sinks in. I'm working for my own name now. building up on ur credentials and as a person. whatever you do, it just goes to the category of your own name. you are totally responsible..

some ppl you just cant offend. but that doesnt mean you have to flatter them.
silence is golden, sometimes.

patience is what you need. i m patient.
i'm impatient i mean.
easily off the edge... but i better stop this before it gets me more trouble!

knowledge is power. to get you to climb higher and to let u walk around with your arms folded and just use your mouth! haa no lah cant be like that cos i hate them!

hardwork. gotta expect lots of hardwork but not as much reward to be happier.. even thou i believe something greater will come at the end of all the hard work.

and a good heart. the worldlimess of the world and the ugliness will unveil themselves.. having a good heart keeps you safe and warm..
haha no lah. it keeps your immunity high and being able to differentiate things clearly..

save for rainy days!
it just makes u feel more secure la! heh...

argh.. just not gd enuff.

alrite...fallling sick.. bad ankle and cut my finger..
its okie

they will soon b gone!
