Faith*

Its no use punching tables or shouting randomly along the roadsides.

Its no use to keep hearing other people comment and advice.

Its no use that i ve gotten a k for my trip, money cant buy me that kind of happiness.

Just take me please, Lord.

"Three times i pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me " My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in your weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest in me. That is why for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when i am weak then i am strong."

2 Corinthians 12:8-10

(On a side note, found this off Cherie's blog, so thanks to her)

Where have you been (man)?*

I ve been spamming Christian books like crazy lately and yeah, things have definitely changed. For the better, yes, but im still not used to it yet.

Its been getting better i think, and there's 3 ways of how i have been feeling lately.

But God is good and he provides =), so what have i to fear? Just need to put in that extra effort, keep doing what i have been doing and accept the result with an open heart.

Christmas is just around the corner and there are many things to look forward to.

WWJD*

Today will be a double portion of Cheers!!

In the order of importance of course, spiritual and worldly.

ahem ahem*

As precious metals are refined by fire, so your life, which is precious to God., is refined and purified in the fire of adversity. Its is only through refining that the impurities are removed. When the liquid metal is completely purified, the refiner's image appears on its surface.

Likewise through suffering, God's image will appear more and more clearly in you.

I will bring the group through the fire and make them pure, just as gold and silver are refined and purified by fire. They will call on my name , and i will answer them. I will say, "these are my people," and they will say, "The Lord is our God."

Zechariah 13:9

I know the Lord is always with me....No wonder my hear tis filled with joy.

Psalm 16:8-9

So take heart and cheer up =).

Hello world.




Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading,
From all the things that we are
But are not saying.
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?
Change the colors of the sky.
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you.
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night, Love will find you.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?
The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day.
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace.
Shadows fade into the light.
I am by your side,
Where love will find you.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?

Now that we're here,
Now that we've come this far, Just hold on.
There is nothing to fear,
For I am right beside you.
For all my life, I am yours.







Wounds heal, scars fade. Love will come for you one day.

Footprints in the sand*

Hitch is really good, he knows how to smooth talk the ladies. He knows what they re thinking, he knows what they want and where they want, and how they want things to be done.

Yet, when he finally meet the girl of his dreams, he falls into a trap of his own, clumsy and awkward, unable to do what he so professes himself to be good at. Theory and practical wise he is the master, until he meets someone of his heart's desire and starts carrying out amatuer mistakes that he scolds his clients of doing so everyday.

The irony of the situation.

Its easy to do something when you re not in the situation yourself, once you get yourself entangled in it, welcome to a whole new level. Its easy to advice and all, but when the emotions and insecurities start piling up and into your mind, things just loose control.

Was i insensitive? Did i wait too long or too short? Is this what she truely wants? Play it cool boy, dont call her tonight wait for another day...

Even books in the world hold information of such techniques where the art of seduction is a skill obtained even in geeks*. "40 year old virgins", maybe? Neil Stratus? Rings a bell guys? Go youtube it, Pick up artists exist. they are truely a reality and shit* like this does happen arond the world.

For me i do confess of knowing basic theory, practical wise maybe not really there, i mean i ve been successful in certain occasions, but the follow up just lacks heart. It sucks knowing that you could have done something to alter the outcome of the situation and prevent uneccessay conflict and tension.

Never have i played stupid mind games, nor had false intentions about this. But its no point to cry over split milk, i know that i am truely helpless and have no real clue how to make everything back to normal again.

No one can help me except for God.

Even in such moments when i just feel like tearing my hair out and screaming into the dark lonely night, I know God is with me and he will never leave me. He knows my true intentions and has a plan for me. I feel like im one the beach and im seeing a pair of footprints in the sand right now, "so where are you Lord?"

Hes carrying me throughout this whole time. Have more faith boy. Why do i need worldly techniques and methods to solve my situation? I'd rather pray about it and find strength in the bible.

I feel weak and helpless truely in this situation now, and now i don't even know if im making a moutain out of a mole hill.

I will continue to perserve and pray, for tis worth it, i said it before and i ll say it again.

In regards to this whole matter, i ll take it all on, seriously, bring on the pain and the hurt, compensate me with a lil happiness. Just bring it all on. Whatever it takes, i know im never alone.

And tis truely worth it.

God bless ya ll.

Ciao.

EPIC WIN!!!!!!!!!!!*

That has got to be one of, no, the best post i have blogged about.

A toast to the future*

Time flies hasn't it?
Now and again I look back and see,
what brilliant friends u all have been.


Not to be nostalgic but truthful in my words,
U all are the best that one could ever hope to have.
Going through the thick and thin,
all the pains in life that make it ever so sweet,
and the joys that we have experienced together.
Even though we might part ways and grow away from each other,
by God's grace lets remember that friendship is forever.


By his blessing,
hurt has turned into humour,
our mistakes and traits of being human,
have been accepted by each other.
A brother and a sister to one another,
I am assured with each passing day,
that the journey has barely begun.

So not just because its Sunday,
or that i am feeling sad,
many thanks to my friends once again,
for being there for me.
Thanks be to the Lord and bless you all!

Tis so true true true,
when hungry and starving,
you go slurp slurp slurp.

It hasn't been a long time i ll admit,
but it sure as hell feels like it.
I ll be realistic to say,
that the future is uncertain in many ways.

I don't feel dis(EN)couraged though,
I don't feel emotional too.
Why reflect on the past and stop right there?
The future will bring us a whole different level of happiness too.

Most important is the way the Lord will provide,
trust and obey.
There's no need to touch wood but say,
we know that things will turn out his way.


Be it, le matin, le soir, la nuit,
for all that the times we've spend together,
J'aime beaucoup!


With you around,
c'est un beau jour!
I'm never too afraid to say,
Tu m'as tellement manque!
Yes yes, go ahead and laugh,
mon francais est mauvais!!!


But still,
Viens avec moi!
October 3rd was just another stepping stone.
Hold merci beaucoup to me,
we re not done yet.


God will provide for us,
believe with me =).
And thus with Omar's free champange,
to the eye feast that is 10 dollars,
the triple jumps that stole our breaths,
the 3.5inch golden items that nearly out defeated my mampride*,
the stupidity of not being practical,
the combined size of our eyebags,
and to Golden moments of silence where even my ingenius small talk failed.
RAWR!
Here's a toast to the future. =)


1 Corinthians Chapter 13 verse 3b.

"No matter what i say, what i believe, and what i do, I'm bankrupt without love"

This feeling really really really sucks*

I sang this for worship today.

You're all I want,
you're all I ever needed
you're all i want
Help me know you are here.
The past few days has been both confusing and painful to me. I don't know if what i am doing is right or wrong anymore. People have been giving me all sorts of different advices, worldy and spiritually.
I am 20, and im trying my best to catch up on all the times that i ponned church to lan, pool and etc. Some people say its not time yet, others go wtf. At the end of the day it is still my personal choice.
It hurts lar dammit.
After church and everything, feeling angsty for a whole bunch of reasons, i came to a conclusion that yes, nothing in life worth having, comes easy.
Hence i shall adopt Samuel's signature line "I ll fight till i die like Samurai warrior". Easier said than done of course. I am stubborn, i am implusive, i am childish at times, i get angsty at times too, i am more of a jock than an intellect, but i am human and i sin. Thats no excuse though.
Lord please help me to do whats right and now so more than ever, help me know you are here.
I truely dislike feeling this way. Maybe its neccessary trials and tribulations for me, but i do not enjoy it one bit.
Anyway i signed up for the AVIVA Ironman, 1.9 km swim, 90 km bike, 21 km
run. Hopefully that ll cheer me up a bit, even so i bet going through that motion isn't going to feel as bad as now.
Hope ya'll are having a better day than me.
God bless and cheers!

Here's to the future*

Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto,

That gets me through the night.

I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,

I'm gonna live my life.

Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,

Standing on the ledge, I show the wind how to fly.

When the world gets in my face, I say, Have A Nice Day.

Have A Nice Day.





Im gonna make it work out, or die trying in the process.

Money is King*

I haven't really blogged since i went to Seattle and a lot of things have happened.

Anyway i just came off duty and my dad surprised me by offering me 8-9 k to buy a brand new bike.

Purposes

1) When i go to Seattle, i can use my old bike for travelling to school and my new baby for my triathlons there

2) He can use my old bike to exercise as and when he wants to and my bro can use my old bike to take part in the upcoming September triathlon

3) My new ride will consperm be literally, SEX on Wheels. Female Cyclists will drool at it when i ride it rings around em', they'll probably wanna cycle with me in the future as well.......sounds good no? hahaha..

Problems

1) Old and new bike in the course of merely 2009, fucking 15 k already.

2) My current/old bike is also deemed as a very good deal. Full carbon etc etc Ultegra group set...carbon wheels...yeah its kinda sex-ed up too for 4100 dollars.

Sigh, thinking about it all, money is indeed king, i do not believe that money is the root of all evil, not to a full extent that is. U know, the old history "i believe to a limited extent", GP kind of thing.

Whats worse, was that i was shocked that i spent my bd 1k away in a span of weeks, yes sir not months. Fucking cant control my out-flow of cash these days. It was initially shocking for moi, but when i fully reflected on where MAJORITY of the bulk went to. Yeah, i can say with smile on my face, tis was worth it.

To the morons out there, u know who u are, you're welcome for the sponsership for the loads of shit that we did at those early hours of the day hahahhaa. I guess, my mentality is that, if i think you're really worth it, i won't spare anything at all to just bring that smile to your face. Maybe thats why everytime i go clubbing, i always pay the lion's share of the bill and etc etc.

Aiya, money is seriously just bah, ok wait i take that bad....sigh, i still feel kinda guilty of my expenses over the past few months. But seriously speaking u know what? Fuck it, i know the true value of my "family coffers, individual funds, bank accounts", and i am fucking ass sure of how i spend it and more importantly to who.

cause' u guys are worth it.

Anyway, back to the new bike, if i seriously get it, come this September triathlon, i guarantee that i won't be the fastest but i ll sure as hell look the best during the bike phase. hahaha, sex on wheels baby!!

urgh, other things i kinda need to spew out. Im doing something crazy in the upcoming months, even for my standards and although it scares me, i know im going to enjoy every single moment of it. Randomly, i do miss choir as well, i ll try to go back and sing during christmas carrolling and for God more importantly. Worse case scenario i ll watch the esplande performance, if there is one...

Thinking bout "of these things that i have done" in 2009, its more meaningful as compared to 2008 and all the nonsense that i have been doing with the dudes. Mainly Xiang an and samuel the dog, all the chickling, dancing, trash talking, plotting of naughty deeds, future plans of Thai thai thailand, triple vices, chicks with dicks, "we make these good girls go bad ", laughing at perverse jokes that make u momentarily stunned..

I don't know, its all the build up towards the bachelor's party, the epitome of manhood and "ladies u guys just roll ur eyes at us". We do know however, that ten years down the road, we ll look back at our pictures and really have a good laugh...... and that sounded pretty damn old indeed....

Its a phase in life (lar) and like samuel said "i wanna settle down with a nice christian gal in the future''. SO, I am going to enjoy every last bit of my youth and the transition into my adulthood.

Its time to wait my bro up soon and do our mini triathlon together, but before i leave. LOL, i cant help it but exclaim For all ye nooblets out that, learn from my blog that Stars do twinkle........ but u can see it only in outer space ^^.

garghhhhhhh why is bible study so chim???

I heard older people talk.

I ve heard stories of such things.

I ve met them for myself.*

So i wont speculate that the people who come here think and assume im some clubbing hobo. Although i do think so, but i wont speculate, because people are nice, and that they wont just anyhow blog hop in search of evil humour.

Maybe in the past i would go fuck u.

But, its better to at least make someone happy, doesnt matter who, a smile on a face for whatever reason is STILL a smile on your face. That is undeniably a good thing! =)

Anyway. I feel that we should focus our energies to do more meaningful stuff. Culture shock no? People in singapore do not have proper families, ever ate at macs before, ate proper western meals before. Even watching a movie is deemed as Extraordinary for them.

Enough with the self centeredness of how i can make my life more this more that for me....enough with the im jaded and nonsense..

Anyway yes, i shall endeavour to do community service this year.

Meaningful ones o course, not clear up rubbish and etc, i mean thats great too, but with more involvement in people's lives. Community centres and stuff..

I think that using my life to do some good stuff, yeah thats just more meaningful and justifiable. How precious life is indeed..

and life is never asexual too, that make things bittersweet.

Congrats Xingay, im happy for ya haha =). I promise i wont go all batista and shit on her when i finally meet her...

Jon, i hope your ready man, im comingggg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so i ll end this post off with.

Bittersweet, bittersweet indeed.

Give and not ask for anything in return*

So it was Samuel's bd and we were in a taxi..

My friend wanted a chance to create an exciting opppotunity.

I picked up the phone and called my aunt for help at butter factory.

Boom. 2 tables under my name, VIP.

Im not sure if I have to open bottles or not or pay entry for my friends or etc etc..Or the financial power too..

fuck man..

Mannnn...............

I hope all goes well seriously. Im not even excited at the prospect of going there even though i ve never been there b4. Its an opportunity for you!!! FUCKER!!!!!!!

Aiya im just contended when my friends are happy and entertained lar.

damn jaded though. Hope i learn some cool shit on the seattle trip. But i have to burn 2.5 additional leave, on top of my 9 days leave, to self quarantine myself. Fucked up indeed, so for the rest of the year i have only 2.5 days of leave left.

(But) its for family, so although its heart pain, i feel that its worth it (lar).

damn sian, thats just the way i am i suppose, its like, people dont talk to me for a long time, but somehow i always get this weird thought in my head, "dont be an idiot lar jerome, go say hi and shit to em", following which "fuck lar just whack".

"Yo, whats up?"

somehow i know that gd karma will come my way but.....ah, we ll see what the future brings.

It ll be nice if i met me in a female hot version, wait, ok thats just fucked up.....

i can so feel someone reading this post and go "oh for pete's sake, stop emoing and Grow up"

sigh

ahem*

I hope that everyone will stay happy and contented with their lives, my parents to stay in gd health, myself to havoc with my brother again. My maid to forgive my bad temper, my dear friends to continue to grow in out friendship and fellowship with one another. Lastly, i hope to become a better christian and keep making my friends smile...

Gd night all and please sms me ur requests from U.S, im heading there from 9th to 21th =)

Patch Adams for the win*

To treat people with laughter was what he believed, true or not, as depicted by the movie..i sure hope to become one of his patients hahaha..

Man, the past week has made me pretty jaded indeed, with seven duties this month, its been tiresome..

I hate politics, i so do... cant even hang out with people that i enjoy hanging around without them disliking each other for Lord knows whatever reason.

Seems that im a person that lives on events and things to look forward to, cant have the everyday normal life. I guess when u strip homework, CCAs, exams and many more deadlines, u get too much freedom, hmmm..

Jaded!!!

I cannot wait to go Seattle, i repeat!! I cannot wait to go Seattle..

Anyway reflecting on what has happened, Miss Andrea's gonna migrate to New Zealand, man..........Shucks. I do admit im gonna miss seeing her around sg, for choir bs and other stuff. Yup but lets all keep her and toshi in our prayers. Can lar i believe.

And can someone please explain to me how the f can Adam Lambert sing so high? Its damn insane haha, too bad hes gay man, i would have used that talent to reel in the babes.. hahah

jk jk....

Aunt's wedding coming up soon, hope to get that over with!! Once and for all, its been quite draggy honestly, ah well, its still good to sing again haha, meeting old and new friends too so pretty interesting experience lol. Haha, i was thinking about bringing Bong to crash the bachelor party as well, haha, im sure Malcom wouldn't mind.... nice haha.

Well, hope that the uni kids are having fun now, and the army guys to hang in there, stop drinking so much and keep our minds clean...Just got off the phone with samuel for his bd celebrations, f man, we might just end up at geylang doing more than Frog porridge, he and the fat bastard..bloody uncontrollable beasts!!

Seriously, duties are freaking warping me out, im on duty on Sunday again, my gwad, bloody 3 extras. Sigh.

I gotta learn how to curb my spending habits too, taxis and when i got caught in the rain the other day, i went into Club Marx to buy another t shirt...

Homofesting on fri night, lookin forward to that, WOLVERINE! RAWR!!!

yes PITY me, i havent caught, Slumdog millionaire, Bejamin Burtons, Wolverine and many other nice movies that have come out already.

Btw the other day Bong and I were discussing about how fun it was to chill at someone's place over Beer supper food, soccer or movies..freak man....freakin getting OLD. I mean i don't even feel inclined to do like crazy stuff anymore.

Maybe i ll revert back to normal after Seattle heh heh heh..

Rave

Adam Lambert's Mad world*

Indeed he deserved a standing ovation for performing the song Mad World, just downloaded it, its really really awesome haha.

I guess now im kinda regretting that im a baritone/bass, people can sing low, but they just never sound appealing as people who can scream out high notes. Man, i so wish i could use non falsetto and scream out songs like bohemian rhapsody, living on a prayer and other tenor high songs.

dammit..

But anyway, i felt kinda proud of my self that after duty in camp, i still rushed down to church to sing for communion, its a very satisfying feeling indeed. I told myself that if i can chiong clubbing like a mad dog in the past, why not service for God too?

Other than that, i am getting too lazy for my own good, come on wake up and mug u dog!

Had rehearsal today dor my aunt's wedding, it was good, hearing Yanting sing her Et Misericordia solo and our new pianist, (SAJC though) sianz, haha jk jk, play along with us. I think singing is really my thing hahaha, if my craziness doesnt wear off soon, maybe i ll hit sg idol and hopefully obtain some fame with a baritone voice.....

wtf.

haha but who knows, i mean shit happens, one moment its a stupid stupid dare, the next, reality hits u, ur famous..man i wouldn't mind that at all, some good clean fun with fame.

damn who knows? hahahahah..

Caught up with han loong and Bong by having family dinners with them. Amazing once again how time flies by, freakin 20 this year, though i dont feel it. hahaha brendan was saying how i had the body of a 20 year old but the mind of a 14, haha maybe maybe. Its always the opposite way of thinking, when ur young, u wanna mature even more, when ur matured/old u wanna be young again. Ho hum..We were talking about buying food, beer and watching soccer matches together, and damn man, thats new fun too. No longer all that wanna be chickling, physical touch, alcohol, late nights, eye bags, money spent, potential hook ups and what other not nonsense.

Seriously, it doesnt appeal to me more. haha another thing to admit, when we (I) were (was) young, physical looks and appearances did matter tons, but as we get older, i guess its the connection between both parties that matter a lot. So she may be alright, a 6 upon ten looks, but if u could connect well with her, why not? I mean im sure a lot of guys i know who say the same to me as well, hot........ok lar icing on the cake. Connection, the whole section of meat in the burger man. I reckon what im trying to say here is, being superficial while closing on to adulthood is just plain stupid, and yeah, go kill urself man. Lol c'est angst right there.

Speaking of angsty i did break my door cause i was pissed off at my mom during a mini house party..ogay, that wasn't good..sigh. ok ok control.

what other random shit do i want to get off my chest. Oh yeah i hit le baroque with sam and xiang again with annabel and her friends, freakin fun, haha towards the end i was playing a Pink Balloon Guitar that Candice kinda lent me to play with the band on stage, BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY!!!! haha its was flabbergasting indeed!

On a more serious note, i read some jap manga in camp online, about some story of a teen girl who kinda had a baby and a miscarriage. It just occured to me how precious and fragile life is. I should have nevered stop praying for her.

I guess somethings in the past cant be changed, and im not afraid to go back and acknowledge it. But such situations rarely come through, social norm and formalities must go through. I think at times we discriminate too much against shot gun marriages and abortions, young moms, so yes it did happen, but we can never change the past.

What we should do is try to aid them more instead of judging them. Judging happens to much in this world la honestly. Anyway i freakin sound like a powerpuff girl now with all this moral stuff.


Sam's BD coming soon! heh heh heh heh...nah.

I had enough, just chill and enjoy, no more nonsense.

Sprint triathlon!!

It was hot, rough, crowded, painful, nerve racking...

BUT I STILL DELIEVERED THE PWNAGE!!

ha ha ha!

It was really a magnificient sunday =) Praise the Lord for giving me strength to endure and enjoy myself throughout the pain i was going through.

In the end, 6th in my under 20 catergory, and 178 out of 700 plus for overall race.

WOOHOO!!!

Next time i ll beat Xingay though..... buggers.

I guess the best moments of the race was...when i went lil crazy haha.

Ok starting off, Xingay the humji beng didnt want to follow me by squeezing into the middle of the swim pack, where jostling was the fiercest and u could get your nose broken with one good kick.

BUT STILL! I positioned myself smack in the middle, nearest to the line.

When the countdown was going on, my heart was beating so fast, because some people decided to start clapping towards, 5,4,3...2....1!

BOOM! Freestyle with my head above water, i dont even know what i was thinking lol, i was literally swimming over some GUY at one point. Ok put it simply, i Muscled my way till a lane opened in front of me. Hahaha some ang mo dude tried to grab my ankle and pull me, i just turned around and pointed my finger in his face "HEY!!!!" After that i felt invincible...haha. Thanks to my parents i guess, not the rough part, that my dad always brought me out to sea to swim when i was young, Pulua Hantu etc, hence the sea was like a long lost home to me.

That was one, the other was when i was cycling, past the 5km mark, and cycling back to make another 5 km, saw Xin the Gay. I just shouted out to him 'XIN GAY!!!' I WAS LEADING COME ON! Too bad that was temp, till 10 km only, shit.

Oh at one point when we were cycling neck to neck, i hoarsed out to him, WHO ARE U CYCLING FOR?! WHO ARE U CYCLING FOR??! He just got onto his aero bars and increased his speed. I guessed he was thinking, wtf jerome's gone crazy...

Next up! August! Triathlon!!

Few things i need to do now.

1) Mug SATS
2) Buy Aero bars
3) Adjust my seat height properly, and train to get accustomed to it
4) Essential race belt
5) Cycle and run MORE!
6) Take my 2.4km again and break 9 mins


Yeap, to God be the Glory! Thats who i ran for on Sunday.
Sadly, on sad thing abt a tri race is the training aspect, u lose out on social life when u train or rest, well, u have to sacrifice something in order to gain something.

The calm before the storm*

19 of April 2009

My first sprint tri, building up to the main event July triathelon.

750m Swim
15 km Bike
5 km Run

As fast as you can.

I cant promise that i ll be faster than the professionals, the skinny compact triathletes that have being doing this sport longer than me.

But collecting my Tags and numbers this afternoon, i felt really excited and pumped up, YES THE RAWR KIND! Ahem, excuse me...Alors, for tmr, i promised a few things to myself.

1) Everything i got, till my lungs burst or i faint, as fast as i humanly can for God

2) Destroy Xingay in the race itself, all the trash talking has finally come down to this

3) Enjoy =)

I guess being overcompetitive as an advantage after all, you dont care what, u dont think, u just whack.

No regrets.

Ahem.. ARGGHHH!!!!!! Ahem..

Angsty dog, blind eagle and monkey face*

So........Alors....

D'accord......alright.......

Its a beautiful gd friday and im somewhere, the least place u would possibly imagine, blogging cause im so damn bored..

Ah well, life has been kinda surreal for the past week. Gd things to note though, my homie xin the gay has returned from TAI TAI WAN!! Too bad he didnt manage to hit any of the taiwan clubs though, bugger..i was hoping he would bring some pics back and i could check out some of the locals there hahaha..

Oh man, yeah thanks to a certain french/ballet Miss...i just came to the conclusion that i can be pretty damn cliche? Meaning that i kinda just spew out all these funny "the enemy of ur enemy is your friend" or "what goes around comes around" or "life's too short to not experience anything"..Weird, i think its cause of hanging out with bong, or rather when i used to hang out with him pretty frequently in the past..

ah well...

Thursday was really ansgty for me cause i was pissed off with the guys for some movie ticket. Well, saying that, i nearly fought with Ian outside bloody cineleisure for the wrong reasons, and yeah im sorry for shoving Chris to one side too when he tried to restrain me..Talking to Han, yeah i mean, if ur going to fight, at least not over a movie ticket and not with ur close buds..Its just this year i admit that i ve become pretty short tempered and very intolerant over certain issues. Sighh...

Cause of that, i cycled to mount faber from 1 to 2 plus at night with xingay, man it was good to see him again, but freakin drama outside cine, we were literally making a scene..Woke up at nine to go for my hardcore physio. Oh anyone who goes for physio? Im not boasting or anything, but your physio is nothing compared to my physio.

Just fri i was lucky, she made me run 5 km instead of the usual ten km, then lunges sprints and jumps, and her repititions are all in reps of either 50 or hundred, shes hardcore man..After the night cycle and xiong PHYSIO, i just collapsed on my bed and knocked out for 3 hrs, woohoo..

Visited Han that cripple son of a gun, haha he was doing fine with his bandaged leg, talked about random stuff, and yeah it was good PLAYING ROCK BAND AGAIN! RAWR!! haha i do admit i get a lil crazy at times haha..

Visited Cindy's house and caught up with her too..It was good lar, no alcohol for once haha, and i realized like how much we all have changed since last year. Seeing more and more juniors in the clubs, not that i go back often though, it just like she said, reminded us how old we are getting.......sadly.

Think its time to click one of those instant matchmaking popups etc and get ready for marriage....













NOT!!!!!

Anyways, after thursday's near fight i came up with animal analogies for us, i mean so far lar i ll think of more as time goes on.

Moi - Angsty dog, cause i have been short tempered lately and yeah, hot headed at times too, DONT LOSE UR HEAD! As i have been drilled before, yup. Plus dogs go crazy with rabids, and similar to myself with all em' natural testostorones.

Xingay- Blind eagle, he may have the leadership skills of a one chocolate bar, but hes freakin indecisive hence, he can fly high, however hes still blind

Ian- Monkey face Ong, being a Jew monkey, he never shares his bananas with anyone hence he gets constipation. As a result, he never inconveniences himself to do something that he doesn't want to do, cause all he wants to do is to take a dump..

ROFL u might go, but i kid you not, these are pretty accurate analogies..

Im really looking forward to political zouking with xiang and samuel on Sat haha it ll be another chance for the two perverts to do some boys gone naughty in dark places with loads of alcohol..............AGAIN I MIGHT ADD haha..

I cant wait for my sprint triathelon next Sunday, its going to be so awesome i can feel it!! Wearing my hulk costume (cause its green) and taking my lung expanding pill, and kickin's some officer xingay's ass on that day itself! RAWR! Whats a mere 750m swim 15km bike and 5 km run to the mentally strong????

After this is July's triathelon and then more triathelons, following which, IRONMAN!! Your body's limits are only what u imagine them to be, while im young and still pumping, i say all out! WOOHOO!! Haha, man i better cut out all the cycling with sunglasses at night, speeding past red lights, racing buses man vs machince and listening to ipod when i cycle; shit, for my own safety.

Ironically, im looking at my BTT textbook now lol..

Army's really such a drag, its like every week i must have something to look forward to and do. Movies, cycling, etc etc..

Cant wait for June when i go visit my older bro in Seattle, gonna be hopefully, 2 weeks of fun and talking cock with him again. We never seem to grow up hahahhaha take that SHUWEI! C'est angst, Je Comprehendre?! . Ok lar i mean we do, but i guess the kid in us will never die, i know my bro's kinda in the same mode i am, well i mean his uber Korean gf is handling him pretty darn well, so hes gotta be less crazy then i am..haha.

Well im HOPING that he ll bring me around the campus, visiting different aspects of the uni and seeing his apartment, and more importantly RAVEE PARTIES!! haha, jk jk we ll see how things go lar. Rihanna and T.I's live your life song is playing on radio now, how apt =)

To sum it all up, i pray that Han's leg will get better, Uni students to finish their exams with no uncertainty in their hearts, my dad to stay childish as ever and lose weight, my mom to enjoy dancing for God, my friends to find more happiness in their lives, Xingay to be at his very best when he COMPETES with moi and for old friends to take MUCH MORE INITIATIVE in staying in contact with each other..I think i lost one friend already to laziness in maintaining contact
via msn. Oh yeah my bro to stay happy and as crazy as me in seattle.

I hope to sing again after July too =)

For now, Sat!! Back to the place where it all began again at "Za-ow-k"

A bientot! Bisous!

P.S Daph well, i do admit 4.1 is really expensive, but for the parts and components im getting, it is really a steal at this current price. Plus im not upgrading anymore, at least till i start earning a couple k myself, or rather when i start teaching. And im treating my bike as a pet, once u buy it, no way can u go " oh im sick of it and just leave it". Cause if i bought a 2k plus road bike and upgraded it, cfm it would go to 6k plus, but at 4.1 straight from the start, im saving money long term wise, at least only for my parents long term.

For your mountain bike, have u roughly decided what brand and which model u are going to go for? Anyway, Bukit timah is not impossible, im sure within this year or less you ll be able to Pwn it yup! =)

24 hrs + + + +

It really seems now a days that i dont have enough time for anything at all..

Thank the Lord for offs from army..sigh this period is just very tiring for myself..

With the 19th of April race coming up, my current activities, well, one has to sacrifice something in order to gain something. Time management FOOL!.

So far, what saps my time up.

1) Army 8-5
2) Duties, 24 hrs
3) Training, running, cycling, swimming, gymming
4) French
5) Meeting up with friends
6) Physio
7) Studying
8) Clubbing, though it doesnt happen as often this year
9) Aunt's wedding rehearsal ( still an alto problem lacking) sigh...

Sad to say i dont really make time for God at all..

I think i do have time lar, just that i waste it on internet, facebook, nba.com, msn. I guess once again this is a trial for my time management skills..

I wish that time would just pause and i could do all i wanted to do till i got sian of it..

Overtraining's happening quite frequently now. dammit..

No matter, i wont lose..

ARGH!

i should really rest more.........

fuggin eyebags and fuggin intra group politics.

Simply im the intellectual ogay!*

Oh don't the days seem lank and long,
When all goes right and nothing goes wrong?
And isn't life extremely flat
With nothing whatever to grumble at?
Yes folks, we do need hardships in our life, to boost and kick our butts outside of our comfort zone. We may whine, "Exam? chao chicken backside lar..." "PROJECTS! IT BRINGS ME EYEBAGS!"
So imagine having a holiday 24-7, all year round, it would be extremely boring i assure you.
Embrace ur hardship, love it enjoy the moment, and maybe we ll get something out of it. After all, aren't breaks and fun nights so much sweeter after u ve worked ur heart out for it?
On a random note, i cycled up Mount Faber 5 times, try it once folks, its freaking upslope all the way. Though for the pain in my legs, the view was indeed, quote Steve Irvin "GORGEOUS GORGEOUS!!!! ISN'T SHE A BEAUT'"
Breath taking i must say..
Life life life life life life life life life life life life life life life.
LIVE IT

When a celebrity attends it, the whole place changes to a rock concert" I say to that "Fuck u understand? So fucking onz about worldy possesions, money. Go to church to flirt or worship huh?"
-The day it becomes a place like island creamery or zouk, where some people go there just to be seen. I just shake my head in despair.

So its going to be another homofest for V day, alright!

Grr i have no idea, but i ve been feeling particularly grumpy for these past few days.

Ccb why the f do i type so slow.. see here i go again.

On a happy note, kaiyi the oversea's kid is back from aus so its good to catch up and, i gotta make sure i kick her ass on the dance floor haha. jk jk, friend friend =)

On a happier note, i took my 2.4 timing last sat and its was ZOMG 9 MINUTES 14 SECONDS RAWRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

ARGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do admit im a guy who has too much testostorones in his body, hey hey, keep ur minds out of the gutters ok. Haha, but yeah i literally bellowed like some beast at the Acjc track haha. Thank God there were only ruggers there, lol.

Thanks to Kuok Ming and Ian the dog in helping me take my timing.

Alright!! One down, now need to work on french, sats, driving and ponning Xingay's ass at the july triathelon. One thing for sure, we re both birds of the same feather, seriously seriously bloody over competitive. If i cant beat him , well maybe since im young what the heck steriods for the win! Crazy huh? Well quoting my senior in my new department in my camp, "if u want something badly, go for it"

Had overnight duty with him last tue, that bloody indian, kept talking cock to me the whole night bugger. Haha, but it was fun i suppose, talked abt our emo past..

Damn i thought last year i was bad, this guy takes the cake, hes paying his gf* a surprise visit in australia, leave and money all going to burn. The worse part is that, he may get his ass shoved back to him on a silver platter.
Tsk, gd luck my friend! I ll pray for u dude. Some dedication he showed me during our emo talk heh.

I guess since V day is coming just around the corner, emo monster has been bugging me ever since. Ok ok so, we are all old enough to know that we dont need this emo-jc-secondary school shit and we can do better with our friends, RIGHT?????? Yet i feel this hidden needle in my underwear somewhere, pricking my ass, torturing me with that oh-so-2005-2008 sensation that can never be removed, unless i use alcohol or flood my body with endorphines.....

IT SPEAKS!!!!! "V DAY IS COMING YOUNG ONE!! WHY ARE YOU STILL A NOOBLET??!!"

YE GAWDS!

Haha, i seriously think im being retarded here, ok fine i am being retarded here.

Ah well, go with the flow then haha.

Lets see what else to talk about, OMG YES YES! I seriously feel that singapore is such a conservative society, so muhc so that i cant stand it anymore.

I was going for my physio therapy session right? Changed, took a piss, some ang mo dude came next to me..

"Hey dude, nice body man, ripping it up i see there, gimme five homie"








haha talk cock lar, ps, seriously...

Him "Hey man, hows it going?"

Me, stunned.. "Eh hey...yeah man im pretty gd, u? Busy with ur work?"

He was dressed in those male nurses' outfit.

Him" Yeah im doing great, loads of things to do around here"

Me "Oh ok ok" Zips up "Aite see ya mate, tc!"

Ok first of all u bastards, hes not gay. What im trying to say is that, in singapore, how many people will actually come up to you and try to start a conversation, or even look u in the eyes and smile at you?? Look at it, on the MRTS the BUSES, its silence between strangers, old uncles hogging seats, people being uncomfortable with each other at mere sight, its just freaking UNFRIENDLINESS BREEDING IN OUR BODIES!

Where as this dude actually tried to start a conversation with me , a total stranger.

I went shopping with my mom, there was a an ang mo lady in front of me.

Me "Excuse me , sorry.." I went around here.

She " No problem."

Singaporeans be ashamed!! I guess its our culture or what, but seriously this unfriendliness that i have been observing lately, its so so demoralising for me. I cant wait to go overseas and open my eyes to a "brave new world" hur hur..

So they say the grass is always greener on the other side. Singaporeans....the 5 Cs....the Singlish...the traditional asian values...the unwillingness to smile to others....the lack of gentlemen.....the shyness and act of being conservative...

I EXCLAIM OUT LOUD TONIGHT!!





na bei...im a sg citizen too...


PAP should get some hippie cool ang mo and make him Minister of friendliness!!!

If u doubt me, go onto buses and mrts and open ur eyes......U ll see what im talking about.

Come on, prove me wrong, pls.




People think of me, crazy enough, heh, but in reality, what i do is just to get the simple satisfaction of putting " Lets Put A Smile on That Face". U know me.

So take me as a sucker for pain*

ho hum..

Its been another week as usual, im really pretty excited for the future this year. I kinda realized that last year was a complete waste of time, maybe, maybe not. I mean i did leanr a few life lessons here and there, but overall, my achievements were zilch.

So this year i do have aims and goals, which are currently on their way, just hope that God will give me the strength to finish them.

1) SATs May 2th
2) BTT driving, March 4th
3) Triathelon July
4) French for the year
5) Break 930 mins for 2.4 km

3 subjects to study for....yeah baby come on. Oh and i just completed one training session with sam, my gym trainer, we re currently doing the 300 spartan work out, its freaking killer and difficult. But hey, whoever said life was going to be easy..

I think that even with my less than 100% ankles, im going to finish the race for God and myself.

And to those who doubt me for my ability to take part in it competively.

Have a nice day!

On other notes, i gotta learn to be less short tempered and kaiyi's coming back, i love it when overseas' people come back for holidays. Catch ups are also so gd to have.

22 days without clubbing, heh thats something indeed for me.

Its only when u push yourself to what u never thought, u were capable of, then would u finally realize how much u underestimated yourself.

COME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I quote my upper study in my new SAF department heh,


"SAF allows serviceman w PES C9 status to run l.i.v.e run only if they have muscles bigger than Jarome"

Monday, January 05, 2009

Happy New Year All =)

1) Should i continue with french?
2) Should i sing for choir again?
3) SATS
4) USA uni applications
5) Driving (unholy procrastination!)
6) Stay off alcohol and partying, unless absolutely neccessary haha
7) Take part in a half biathelon, dual, of half tri as well, i ll see how.
8) Greater effort and les angst towards friends, even though some cheesebuns dont give two shits..
9) Lose weight, that ll be so much easier with alchohol out of the way, but the hard part comes with major dieting, hey man at least im trying yup.



That ll probably eat up my year yup.

And also, to keep singing for God, in church, maybe alumni as well..

What else?

Im not sure, just go where the wind takes me...

*Exxxiiitt light!!! Enterrrr nighttt!!! Graiinn of sandd!!! Off to never never landdd!!!*

Oh humour me!!!
