Yes or No?

I don't seem to understand you!
First you treat me as a friend,
Then you completely ignore me!
We talk only when there's no one around,
But when others come by, I disappear.
I know you probably think I'm wierd
And I don't care,
Just talk to me,
Tell me I exist!

I get nervous near you,
And you probably know that.
You know that you make me uncomfortable,
Yet happy at the same time.
Am I the only one feeling like this,
I pray not!
I pray that you too have this awkward feeling.
This feeling I feel in your presence,
Which makes my uncomfortable,
Yet at home at the same time.

Is it a yes or a no?
I can't seem to understand you,
At first you seem to enjoy my company
And shun me away another time.
Why can't I just ignore you too?
Why can't I just leave us as friends?
I want to ask you how you feel for me,
Yet I fear the chance that you'll say no,
And reject me.
I fear that after that we won't see each other as friends anymore
That you'll ignore me more.

Are you playing hard to get?
Or are you completely ignorant of my feelings for you?
Maybe I've not shown you that I care?
Or I've shown you how weird I can be,
But I'm weird because I feel weird with you
I'm scared that if I act so tough and proud,
That you'll think of me as a snob.
I'm scared that if I act quiet, you'll completely ignore me
(And that is what I fear the most)
I'm scared that if I act too smart,
You'll think that I'm out of your league,
But in truth, I am out of your league.

Now I pour my emotions out here,
Without a guarantee that you'll ever read it.
I want to share my world with you,
Yet I'm afraid that our paths will not merge,
That we'll drift apart.

Every life is a river,
Every couple is a merged stream,
Every breakup is a fork in the river,
And every successful relationship leads to the sea.

Please take my hand when I get the guts to ask you,
Please say yes instead of no
Let's live not as two but one.

Distinction!!!

Oh yeah...it was also during our lunch that Jim Lee, my drum teacher, sms'ed me. Here is our conversation:

Jim: Ops, ur result is out 

Me: Bad anot?

Jim: Bad. Fail.... With distinction...

Distinction? Or fail

Jim: 85 marks, great!! Distinction!! Congratulation!

Me: Yay! Thx 4 teaching me

Today is the best day of the year! I had fun with my friends and found out I didn't fail my exam!! I really hope he wasn't joking. I'm going to collect my results soon and when I have my results in black and white, I'm gonna celebrate!



Successful Outing!

So happy that our form's third ever outing was a total success!!  Our first outing was a fail because only guys made it...and where's the fun in that =).  The second outing was at Eirene's house.  It was quite successful, but still wasn't as fun.  Today's outing was awesome!

We went to Tropicana City to catch lunch, watch a movie, and hang out at Jeff's.  Eight people made it.  It was  David, Daniel, Me, Zhiling, Eirene, Jane, Jeff, and DEL, but DEL only joined us for lunch.

I was the first to arrive at 11:45, and started waking about aimlessly at the 1st floor.  Then I saw the twins downstairs.  I called them up and we waited outside Borders for the latecomers xD.  I called Eirene and she came next.  We later went to the Ground Floor Drop-off Point to pick Zhiling up.  We then went to buy our tickets.  I wanted to watch New Moon but the twins were not allowed to so we settled to A Christmas Carol.

After we bought the tickets for the three o'clock show, we proceeded to Restaurant Food and Tea.  While ordering, Zhiling brought out that we should go dutch.  Then we had a long debate about what 'going dutch' meant.  I thought it meant the girl paid, Zhiling said it meant the bill is split, and Eirene said it meant the individual pays for the food he/she orders later on we googled it and Eirene was correct.  It was during this time that Jeff and DEL arrived. Then Jane called       Eirene saying that she was at LG.  I thought she was at LG as in the Life's Good shop, but it was the Lower Ground.  I went with David to get Jane.  When the three of us arrived back at Food and Tea, Zhiling and the rest still had not finished ordering...sigh.  After we finally had our food, David and I sneaked out to pay the bill...aren't we gentlemen xD.  I won't say how much it cost me in case any of the girls are reading this.

Later on we went to Borders and instead of reading, we ended up having a photo shoot with Zhiling's camera.  I want those pics! At 2:30 we went back to the cinema to get popcorn before the movie started.  I tried to pay for the popcorn with Daniel but Zhiling didn't want that and lined up with us, while Eirene and DEL, who went off before the movie started, went to the arcade.  When everything was bought we went to watch the movie.


It was a well-known classic so I knew the plot already.  It was good because it was Jim Carrey.  There was enough some humor and some scary parts.  I remember that at the time of the ghost of Christmas future, Zhiling jerked because the ghost suddenly appeared...haha.

After the movie, Zhiling went back followed by David and Daniel leaving me, Jane, Eirene, and Jeff.  It was raining so we couldn't go to Jeff's place yet.

When it stopped raining, we went to Jeff's place and talked until 7:00.  After that, Jane needed to go back to Tropicana City to go home.  I walked with Eirene and Jane until the guardhouse where I said bye to Eirene.  I walked with Jane all the way to Tropicana City until she went to her car.  I then walked to SS2 where my parents picked me up to shop and eat dinner.  I was so close to buying a new pair of shoes, but there was no size =(.

It was an awesome day!!

Boomerang Express...the last station

I'm gonna miss those kids...

Yesterday was the closing night of the Boomerang Express in my church.  I believe it was fun for everyone--'kiddaroos', parents, and the outback guys.  I miss them already.  I woke up at 7:00am today and thought I was late for VBS.  Though it was a tiresome event, it was worth it.  It was worth it waking up at 6:30-6:45am for the whole week.  It was worth it dancing with the kids and teaching them the moves to praise God with.  And last of all, it was worth it to see the joy in the faces of the kids.

I want to help out next year as well if my schedule permits.  I can't wait to meet them again!!

Say Yes to VBS


VBS was the Awesome!!! No pics though...eh, will get some from Jeff.

It's so sad that it's ending tomorrow , but I had the time of my life helping the kids.  Now after four days, I must say I'm gonna miss it.

I was so excited that I woke up at 6:30 for the last two days (without my alarm mind you).  Thank You Opera House peoples: Sue Lee, Zhiling, James, Michele, Jasmine, Gloria, Grace, and Priscilla for being with me.  Thank You Mom, Ewe Jin, Samuel Lim (Jia Hong), and Ps. Aaron and sons for fetching me throughout the week.

In other news , The weather has been awesomely HOT.  Maybe the VBS people prayed to hard for it to not rain, but it's so hot that my toilet felt like a sauna!

All Aboard!

2012: We Were Warned


Watched 2012 today...



It was an awesome show! The graphics are good and the storyline was awesome.  But I must say, it was quite predictable.

I loved it because it portrayed humanity as humanity.  From the simple acts of compassion to the stone-hearted decisions that could destroy the world, this movie showed what could happen if we allow circumstance to rule us.

This movie wasn't as big as a hit as the director's last movie--The Day After Tomorrow--but I believe that this is a must watch especially in the surround sound of a cinema.

I remember when The Day After Tomorrow came out--how the papers published so many articles saying that the end will come soon, how I so naively believed everything that the newspapers published, and how they scared the world out of me.

The director must have either a passion for the end of the world, a love to show how humans will behave in the worst of circumstances, or both.

But will the world end in 2012?  Here's something to think about: Because we predict the world will end in 2012, it wouldn't cause Jesus said that it would come at an unexpected hour.  But if we believe in this than we wouldn't expect the end to occur in 2012, but then that just makes it possible for 2012 to be the end.

Confusing? Good! xD

The movie is satisfaction guaranteed.  Forget about the negative remarks it got.

If right-handers use their left brain, doesn't it mean that left-handers are always in the right mind??
