Return to Innocence

Nice song from 1994 by Enigma called "Return to Innocence" ... somehow describes how i feel recently...

Enigma - Return to Innocence

*Chants*
Love - Devotion
Feeling - Emotion
Love - Devotion
Feeling - Emotion
Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence

*Chants*
The return to innocence
If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence

*Chants*
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

*Chants*

Yeah... thanks ppl once again... indeed u all are my "Kai Xin Gou" during my down times =) blessed to have u all as frens =) ...

Settling Down

Its been almost 2 weeks of school.... currently falling sick.... sore throat and flu..... oh man... hate it... a lot of things happened within these 2 weeks.... rather tough.... Thank God i had wonderful frens around me to support me.... be it in academic issues.... friendship issues.... somehow "public relations" issues in school and last but not least relationship related issues... although im not attached.... yeah... just too many things about those issues i mentioned... sometimes it really hard to blog it.... cos some of the issues are very personal and private.... but today somehow i am relieved cos i rant to some ppl who im close with as frens.... some of them understand how i feel which i do appreciate...

yeah.... some ppl might misunderstand me... for example being too nice... I keep telling myself its ok... as long i ask my heart i mean no harm one... nobody can accuse u... cos ppl might just think too far already... Thanks for this advice...

I also got many nice female frens... sometimes ppl might misunderstand or even judge immediately... those ppl who knows me won't say wrong things about me... but somehow other ppl's mouth will start to yak yak and something that are not true might fly around like flooding waters... and worst somehow i am being mistakenly recongised as someone else... haiz.. same advice still applicable... as long i ask my heart... my consciences is clear... i just treat them as frens only... im fine....

Now i also keep telling myself cannot easily like ppl liaoz... if not the tragedy in the month of June will happen again... yupz... so now just let nature take its course.. if got ppl like me good la... if dun have someday i beleive it will happen... yeah... Focus!!! =)

Revelation

Going to church never fails to brighten up my days... the house of God indeed is a place where i can find peace where He is the prince of peace... Jehovah Shalom.... On Sat went for Service and Joyce Meyer came... yeah is like so many things happened for the past few weeks in my soul... a lot of emotions turmoils.... many of the times i feel so "rejected" but on sat i felt peace again... is like ah.... resting on a rocking chair relaxing... speaking about that Joyce Meyer used the rocking chair to illustrate her point... out of that i gain some revelation about my life in fact reminder in life....


1) Live your life TODAY... live on the things you have now rather than the things u do not have (especially treasure the friends you already have which treat u very well) .... do not live in the past letting the past hold u back and in the future letting fear and worry grips you down...

2) Stop trying to be someone whom you already are.....

3) (This is interesting fact i learnt) No matter who you are... how good you are... how nice you are... statistically has shown that minimum 10% of the people whom you know don't like you....

Yeah... Hope the above points can somehow help someone who is reading this blog =) is just something i wanna share cos i find it very helpful....

Anyway went DXO on Sat Night after Service.... Thank God theres Sharon and Elaine... the twin papaya sisters hahaha... these pair never fails to brighten up my dayz... yeah.... Thanks Girls...

Me and Elaine

Sharon Elaine and Uncle Bing

Jamie and Me

Anyway today went for Josephine Cheang 21st Birthday Party.... Happy Birthday Jo... really appreciate the friendship we had since 2005 Aug... we know each other almost exactly 2 yrs liaoz... hahaha...

Bday Girl and me

Recieved New Comment - 38 Years Ago

The Topic above is justified by the below picture.... see the bottom part being circled red?... yeah thats wat i discovered today while i surf my friendster... hahaha 38years ago... oh man.. im not even born... hahaha

Yeah... now keeping my fingers crossed that i can continue to do SSD2210 and get the odd week 9am tutorial... cos thats the slot will not clash with my foundation of econmetrics mid term exam... God help me!!! today kind of feeling dissapointed also... is like somehow ppl like to stereotype ppl... judging ppl on the surface without knowing the person well... and rather keeping the comment to oneself.... they spread the negative comment which is not true without knowing the person well and then tell others... spreading it like wild fire... wat the bible says is true... Life and Death lies in the power of the Tongue from Proverbs... is very true... such statement can destroy innocent ppl causing character murder...

Anyway putting those things aside... today i finally had Milo from Milo truck!!! yeah!!! 7 cups at one go... shiok ah.... tml when it comes i will drink more... Milo... Yum Yum!!!!! anyway is a blessing to know Sharon and Elaine ... they dun fail to brighten me up.... same as Merrisa and Yvonne.... and others who show care and concern while im feeling down... thanks ppl! =) and also oei oei hear me rant :P

The End of Holidays, The Start of School

The Big O has finally come to an end... but is the beginning of many friendships we earned during Oweek... especially for the freshies... hope the Freshies had fun... cos as an O commer the decisions we make and the sacrifices we make is always back to this phrase "its for the freshies"... yeah... unlike Arts Camp... this time no photo whoring for me cos no OG to photowhore with... Kudos to all my fellow O Commers whom toil, sacrifice and pour thier hearts out for Oweek 07.. once again my pleasure to work with them... although during the nine days we went through a lot of crap... but Oweek this year is a success! yeah!!! may the frensip i made in O comm be closer as days go by in school... anyway was kind of dissapointed that Arts didn't win anything this yr for Rag.. but in my hearts they are the best... yeah man! 3 Cheers and 3 Cheers for Arts Rag!! Hip Hip Huray!! Hip Hip Huray!! Hip Hip Huray!!...

Yeah currently still short of one module... trying to bid during Round 3A... So far the modules im taking is

EC2303 - Foundation of Econmetrics, Lecture: Tuesday 10am to 12pm
EC2373 - Global Economic Dimensions of Singapore, Lecture: Friday 4pm to 6pm
EC3322 - Industrial Organisation 1, Lecture: Tuesday 12pm to 2pm
SSD2210 - Managing Singapore's Built Environment, Lecture: Monday 10am to 12pm

Module i am trying to bid is either EC3353 Health Economics or EC3333 Financial Economics... Tml is the start of school... kind of like never really enjoyed my holidays... nevertheless... looking forward to meet my old frens and my new frens!!! yeah.. i love frens =)

Anyway one thing which suddenly come to my mind and i find it very true.... in order to be successful and to sustain it.. the most important factor is your character.... is like a person who wins a 1 million dollar prize.. but dun have somehow like "character" to sustain it... at the end of the day the person might just spend it all and back to ground zero... this also leads me to see in terms of relationship also quite true.. it is the character of 2 person that ultimately upholds the relationship... hope u can understand the 2 points i stated cos i admit im not very gd at words to explain my thoughts in my mind... roughly catch the idea and ponder... in summary... as your life prospers... your soul also must prosper to sustain the prosperity and success in life u have gained... if there is a huge gap... danger of the man falling is very high....

The Big O

For the past few days many things happen... in the period of almost 9 days from 2nd August until now... i have gone thru many emotion roller coasters within such timespan in Oweek... indeed is my priviledge to be an O commer called by Tien kwan to be the tresurer... responsibility is to safe guard, Plan, and account the budget we had for O week... therefore im towards the admin side together with Uncle Bing... many times i am very happy seeing my fellow O comm frens, knowing more ppl especially my fellow O commers and freshies and rah rah thru the camp... but sometimes i feel emotionally down... having the struggle that did i do my job well.. did i offend anybody with the way i work... and the biggest down was having the doubt that am i in the o comm... is like somehow i feel im not part of the family... a sense of belonging... but i will not blame anyone cos everybody is also busy with their stuff also... and my job is behind the scenes one... i do understand =) i also wanna appreciate those who shown care and concern abt me when im down... especially i lost my cashbox key when i being dunk and stripped of my undergarments in the sea... yupz... but nevertheless i still LOVE my O comm... i do treasure the new frenships in o comm like knowing Fang Ling, Bingde, Caleb, Tien Kwan, Ethel, Rosni, Juling, Zhimin, Sandra, Rosni , Minjoo, Lawrence, Jezz, Guan Zhen, Remmy and more and old frenships like Soon Leong, Cherie, Shimin, Kaiwei... wanna say sorry also for things like im unable to help like being a validator in Rag day...
