Woah
The Stuff that u get in ur mail.......
Inspiring..........

I asked God why I wasn't rich.
And He showed me a man with the wealth of a thousand kings, who was lonely,and had no one to share it with.

I asked God why I wasn't beautiful.
And He showed me a woman more beautiful than any other, who was ugly
because of her vanity.

I asked God why he'd allowed me to become old.
And He showed me a boy of 16, who lay dead at the scene of a car accident.

I asked God why I didn't have a bigger house.
And He showed me a family of six, who'd just been evicted from their tiny shack, and were forced to live on the street.

I asked God why I had to work.
And He showed me a man who couldn't find a decent job, because he'd never learned to read.

I asked God why I wasn't more popular.
And He showed me a socialite with a thousand friends, who all left the
moment the money and parties were no longer there.

I asked God why I wasn't smarter.
And He showed me a natural born genius, who was serving life in prison for making ill use of his knowledge.

I asked God why He put up with a thankless sinner like me.
And He showed me His Bible, and His Son who took my place at the judgment.
And I knew then how much He loved me.

What's eating you today?
Are your problems weighing heavy on your heart?
Know, then, that you are loved.

And have a WONDERFUL day!
Then brighten someone else's day, in any way you care to.

Remember, a candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.

AHHHHHHHHH
Today was a rather Productive day
Studied at Holland V
with Jerermy Faye and later Astrid
kinda Finished Instru
left a little bit now
Jachin was there too
Wow
he knows loads of pple
cool!
mostly girls too
hahahaha
Rong came later
Chris dropped by for awhile
was not really fun for him
cos we were all studying
and i can only study well in isolation
so guess it was really boring for him
he went to meet Haley after a while
went to her place
hahahah
The new Under One Roof
SUCKS !
its not funny at all
Boring
Light yrs was rather stupid today
haiz
Channel 5
tmr is Jamming
Finally
after so long
can't wait
"Long Bus Rides are good for thinking " someone close to me once said
nvr really realised that until this yr
when quiet moments make mi look back on the past
Today was another day like that
on the way to Holland V
i was just remembering last yr
the Good Times and the bad ones
I realised something abt myself
i dun really keep the bad memories in my mind
its more of the good ones that occupy my memory
the bad ones have long been swept under the carpet
I feel Lonely
Abandoned........
my life has no meaning
I live only to play at my next Gig
looking for the same Adrenalin Rush to give mi the High on Stage
that i once felt everyday
Life used to be so Nice
Sji..........The Place i felt accepted
even though pple made fun of mi
i knew it was only for fun
I could live with that
Now Sch is just the place i go to for a few hrs each day
for a piece of paper that i will receive at the end of 3 yrs
My first "Girlfriend"
i remember the excitement i felt when she said yes
but it was not to last
but at that time,
it didn't really matter
Nothing Did
Now everything matters
i remember the insults pple say to mi
using it as motivation to strive for perfection
hoping for one day when i can go up to them and say
Thankz for the Insults
Would have nvr become the person i am now without U
but wth......
Life goes On
the 20th of December2002 will always hold that special place in my heart
Its over
We're just Friends now
I can live with that
I wanna move on
but can i?
I hope so.........
The day i can wake up with
A Smile on my face
ready to face Lifes Daily Challenges
That is the day I have moved on
Til then
it will be a daily struggle
but
I will Make it
Thats for Sure

This entry is for my Sis:

Change Your Bloody Attitude
One day you have gotta learn that No one owes you a Living!
esp Not Mum and Dad
u are forever treatin them like second class citizens
u dun show them proper Respect
esp Dad
Give them a Break man
They not allowed to go into ur Room
Bullshit man
Seriously Get A Life

U dun wanna show mi Respect
Go Ahead
I dun really give a shit
but Show our Parents the proper Respect they deserve
They are not ur drivers whom u call only when u are stranded late at nite and dun wanna spend ur precious money on a cab
who the hell u saving for?
u think their sleep is not worth that 20 bucks?
I beg to Differ
Also
The tone in which speak to them with
stink of Arrogance
rem Sis,
Pride comes b4 a Fall
Learn ur Lesson frm what pple tell u
U dun have to fall to learn something
pple have done that b4 u
Learn frm their mistakes

When we teach u something
u dismiss it as Nonsense
esp the stuff i tell u
u think just becus i din go to Jc
i not up to the Mark?
Think again little Girl

I chose my path because i knew what i wanted with my life
can u say the same abt urself?
u think the whole family is beneath u and only ur frens match up to u?
now that times are good maybe they'll stick with u
but when u really hit a low pt of ur life
u'll realise that most of ur "friends" will flee
and the pple left behind will be ur family, God and a few close friends
Once again i ask u,
Change Your Bloody Attitude
I and the Rest of the World
Do Not Owe You A Living

wanna use the com
try to fix it before running to pple complainin abt how u dunno how to do it
it just disgusts mi




Tuesday, April 15, 2003

One fine day,an old couple ard the age of 70, walks into a lawyer's
office.Apparently, they r there to file a divorce. Lawyer was very
puzzled, after havin a chat with them, he got their story....

This couple had been quarrelin all their 40 over yrs of
marriage,nothing
ever seems to go right.They hang on coz of their children,afraid tat
it might affect their up-bringing.Now, all their children have already
grown up, have their own family, there's nothing else the old couple
have to
worry about, all they wanted is to lead their own life free from all
these yrs of unhappiness from their marriage, so both agree on a
divorce....

Lawyer was having a hard time tryin to get the papers done, coz he
felt tat after 40 yrs of marriage at the age of 70, he couldnt
understand
why the old couple would still wants a divorce...while they were signin
the papers, the wife told the husband.."I really love u, but i really
cant
arry on anymore,i'm sorry.." "its o.k, i understand.." said the
husband.

Lookin at this, the lawyer suggested a dinner together, just 3 of
them,wife tot, why not, since they r still gonna be frends..

At the dining table, there was a silence of awkardness. The first dish
was roasted chicken, immediately, the old man took the drumstick for
the
old lady.."take this, its ur favourite.." lookin at this, the lawyer
tot
maybe theres still a chance, but the wife was frowning when she
answer.."
this is always the problem, u always think so highly of urself, never
tot
abt how i feel, dun u know tat i hate drumsticks?"

Little did she know tat, over the yrs, the husband have been trying
all ways to please her,little did she know tat drumsticks was the
husband's favourite.Little did he know tat she never tot he understand
her
at
all,little did he know tat she hates drummsticks even thou all he wans
is the best for her.

That nite, both of them couldnt sleep, toss and turn, toss and
turn...after hours, the old man couldnt take it anymore, he knows that
he till loves her, and he cant carry on life without her, he wants her
back, he wants to tell her, he is sorry, he wanted to tell her"i love
u"...

He picks up the phone, startin dialing her number....ringing never
stops..he never stop dialing....

On the othe side,she was sad, she couldnt understand how come after
all these yrs, he still doesnt understand her at all,she loves him
alot,
but she just cant take it anymore....phone's ringing, she refuses to
answer, knowin tat its him..."wats the point of tokin now tat its
over...i
have ask for it and now i wanna keep it this way, if not i will lose
face.."she tot...still ringing...she have decided to pull out the
cord...

Little did she remember, he have heart problems...

The next day, she received news that he had passed away...she rushed
down to his apartment, saw his body, lying on the couch still holdin on
to
the phone...he had a heart attack when he was still tryin to get thru
her
phone
line....

As sad as she could be...she will have to clear his belongins...when
she was lookin thru the drawers, she saw this insurance policy, dated
from
the day they got married, beneficiary of coz its her...together in tat
file, theres this note...

to my dearest wife, by the time u r readin this, i'm sure i'm no
longer ard, i bought this policy for u, thou the amount is only $100k,
i
hope
it will be able to help me cont my promise tat i have made when we got
married,i might not be ard anymore, i want this amount of money to cont
takin care of
u, just like the way i will if i could have live longer..i wan u to
know
i will always be ard, by ur side...i love u"

Tears flowed like river......

"When u love someone, let them know... u never know wat will happen
the next min....learn to build a life together..learn to love each
other..for who they r..not wat they r..."

Life is a total Mystery
just like a good thriller
U nvr know what is gonna happen next
U only knows whats gonna happen when it does
i am really beginning to lose track of my life
The goals i set
The pple i love
The things i love
What are all those
Its becoming a blur to mi
As this trip to Australia draws near
Uncertainty begins to cloud my mind
Why am i goin?
Shoppin?
Independence?
Experience?
I really dunno
Doubts, doubts and more doubts?
I really dunno what i wanna do with my life
Pple may say take it a step at a time
But what happens when u reach a pt when u dunno what to do with the Next step?
Do u take a step back and try again?
Face it
Our society does not allow us that chance
U make a choice pay for it
Unforgiving as it may seem
Thats how it works........
But what choice do we have?
"All Roads lead to 'Rome' "
Hopefully mine will one day lead there

Choices lead to changes
I hate changes, Dun u?
Make a choice, pay the price

Sprained my Ankle during Tennis
Thank God Chris and Darius were there
they brought mi to a Sinseh
Would not know what to do without these 2 guys
Thankz
the Sinseh madea few small incisions on my leg to remove the"bad blood"
this brought the swelling down by quite a lot
Surprisingly it din hurt
have to go back tomrrow for another treatment
took a cab home and Slept
sadly the swelling was back once i woke up
trouble walking now
haiz
Hvaen eaten all day
Damn Hungry
This might be a sign for mi to tone down on my activities and stay home to Study
Great timing
anyway
i might be forming a Funk band with my Church fren and her frens
hope my drumming is up to standard
just hopefully...........
Fun day today
Met Astrid Noella Elijah Jingting and Eugene for Lunch at Seoul Garden
Stuffed!!!!
Ate too much i think
tried to get some Hand sanitizer gel
but Guardian was all out
hahah The Paranoid + Kiasu Singaporean = a Deadly Combo
Went down for the Drums Exchange after that
Learnt quite a bit
took sometime to warm up but it was otherwise fine
PLayed a little
got corrected
bought the Trojan 16" brilliant Crash
a damn good buy
Value for Moneey
went down to Roomful after that
got there too early
hahaha I Still find Eve damn Cute
slacked for 1/2 hr til the rest came
Min,Jeremy, Darius, Val, Chris
Jammed for one song
Din do too well
Darius played
Jeremy played
Val sang
Good Job!
slacked around
got to meet Brandon
he talk abt not blaming urself
it made a hell lot of sense to mi
he was sittin on the next table after the JamX finals
while i watched my parents eat
i guess he's Right
when something Screws up
try to cover it up
thats what playing Live is all about
Professionalism
i have lots to learn
Learn from the Mistakes u make
use it to ur advantage the next time
I quote
"When u make a mistake, There are only 3 things u should ever do abt it........
Admit it
Learn from it
Don't repeat it"
(Poster on my Wall)

So true!
So true!
