Time square

hi guys

i'm currently at Time square at KL!the rest of them have went shopping, massage, pedicure and manicure. I have done enough of shopping.. Personally i don't like the fashion here, so outdated.. Haha.. Supposed to get something for two person but it is so hard.

I'm sitting right in front of a roller coaster! Yes they have an indoor amusement park.. Maybe i go play tml. The huge shopping centre are all located within walking distance of my hotel.btw i stayed at the highest floor! The view is excellent! Went gym this morning! Can't wait to try out the swimming pool tml..

Been eating good food since yesterday and it is seriously depleting my money.. Haha.. 2 more days to enjoy and to get what i need to get..

Oh ya!

Happy 2009 everyone!

The artists

haha..interesting website that tells me the kind of person i am.

Tml i will be leaving for KL!!


Have an awesome holiday!

Btw

Happy birthday to

Deborah(tml)

Raphael(new year's eve)

The day..

KL in 2 days..i guess i am pretty happy with the way "the thing" has turn out. Let's hope for the best.

SVU guys are really amazing!! i emailed them regarding the lousy Fluent program and they actually replied on sat and then on sun! But then i m having problem with the server again!! oh man!! The only good thing is that i am getting the hang of the program and i hope i can import asap so i can start analysis!!


Anyway the holidays are ending!! hiaz. Since i will be spending New year's eve in KL, i shall think about my 2009 resolutions!!

1) God

i guess we all can afford to be more spiritual and more on fire for God. I hope that 2009 will be a year of breakthrough in my walk with God. Let my eyes be more fixed on Him and focused on His plan for me!



2)Studies/Work

I really pray and hope for a smooth transition. Should i stay and do Masters and PHD? I heard it is hardcore stuff. That sounds pretty scary.HAHA. I jus watched 21!!! OH MY. I simply love that show! I mean I think i am a geeky. When it comes to all these formulae and intellectual stuff. It jus stirr up my interest. Kudos to JX for introducing the show!

3) Relationship

I hope i can find the partner for life before i start work. HAHA. I am not ashamed to say that. It is a natural phase and i seriously don feel anything wrong. We no longer are primary sch students who go around pointing fingers at each other and say "eeee u like that person!!" Clear target clear goal is the key to victory!


4) Character molding

I hope that 2009 i can be a better person. I want to have more patient, i want to flare up less. I want to love people more. I want to less logical-only but have more logically-emotion intelligent. IQ put what is right or wrong first, without regards to feelings. EQ put feelings first sometimes forgoing what is right and wrong. I hope i can be betetr in both area at the same time.

5) Money

I hope that by 2009 , i can clear all my debts. then 2010 i can plan to save for marriage! Not that i am crazy to get married. But i hope to settle down young. And mostly importantly, Man should make plans counting on God to direct. Planning set you ahead and make future path easier to trend on.




6) fitness

I want to be fitter, leaner , more muscular and look sharper. I don't want to develop any tummy anymore( as much as i can) or start to have high blood pressure, cholesterol etc. hopefully i have time to join a gym and keep fit.











I dream of the day i hold your hand walk down the beach..

I dream of the day we go up the Singapore flyer...

I dream of the day we drive up to Southern Ridges for a walk..

I dream of the day..

Of a bright future with you...

Inspiration

Having an indescribable feeling inside of me. Hiaz.


Today i felt very inspired by Sun's interview. Makes me realised that I can make use of my talents in the marketplace. I am still quite traditional in my thinking. I still think that if i am not in the 5 fold ministry, i am not serving God in a great way. I guess from her example, i no longer see it that way. i guess there is this unexplained passion in me to do the best i can, to excel beyond what i can do. I guess being in the house of God have already developed an inbuilt spirit to do the best i can and glorify His name. To be honest, i am not trying to brag, so what if i can into dean's list? So what if i can earn 10k or 20k a month? i realised what matters most is that people know Christ is the reason for all the achievements. People often ask me, what is the energy that keeps me going. To be perfectly honest again, i really don't know. It is just this inbuilt battery within me from God which keeps me on and on.


I must admit, sometimes i really don't understand certain things going on in church. But my historical faith kept me on. It is this faith that keeps me going on and on.I am far from perfect but i am trying. For what i lack, Christ makes it up.


God is the strength of my heart.

Cars

I got to admit. This lamborghini really tempts me

Though i prefer a more practical and different from norm car

My Life, Your song

WHOSE HANDS ARE THESE
HOLDING MY TRAPEZE
WHEN I FLY
YOU CARRY ME
WHOSE EYES ARE THESE
WATCHING OVER ME
EYES OF LOVE
THAT SET ME FREE


UNAFRAID
WHAT'S AHEAD
YOU ARE ALWAYS THERE BEFORE
MY WHOLE WORLD
YOUR DESIGN
YOU ARE ALWAYS THERE
JUST RIGHT BEHIND


MY LIFE IS YOUR SONG
TO YOU MY HEART BELONGS
LET ALL EARTHLY CROWNS
FADE IN THE SHADOW OF THE CROSS
MY LIFE IS YOUR SONG
I'LL SING FOR YOU ALONE
NOTHING IN THIS WORLD
CAN TAKE ME AWAY FROM YOU
OUR LOVE GOES ON AND ON


WHOSE ARMS ARE THESE
SHELTER ME FROM HARM
IN THE STORM
YOU ARE MY CALM
WHOSE VOICE I HEAR
WHISPER IN MY EAR
WHEN I'M LOST
YOU'RE ALWAYS NEAR


IN ALL MY LIFE
BE GLORIFIED
WITH CHRIST IN ME
NO LONGER I
SO TAKE MY ALL
CONSUMING FIRE
YOUR LIGHT IN ME
I'LL LET IT SHINE




Godly Desires, Faith and Courage.

Lonely Christmas

Jus got back after a run. I alway like to run to cool my head. Whenever i feel troubled, i like to be alone. To forget everything. Today run felt good, think i am slowly picking up the pace.

Went to school then sunflower ask me out to get some stuff. suppose to catch up with zoe but i guess she is busy as her sms din come. So i went with sunflower and got some stuff. Had a simple dinner and chit chat about the people around us. I guess that's what good friends are all about.


I love my Emporio Armani phone.I am not jus a geeky guy. I believe in features as well as fashion.


I can't help but feel

Outing with ME pals

Went to new york new york with my ME friends. Initally we started talking about results, then to PHD and Masters program. Then we go into IQ question P6 students are being asked in PSLE. Here are some...see if you can get the answer! Liptong and Minhui Pls DON"T answer because the qns originated from you two!!Fabian also cannot!

1) A student took a number of tests, for one particular test he got 68 marks.His average mark for all the tests he took was 91, on average. Then while calculating, he realised he scored 86 instead of 68, and because of this, his average goes up to 92. How many test he took in total? You don need paper and pen to do. You cannot use calculators.

2)what is the answer for

(a-x)(B-x)(c-x)......................(y-x)(z-x)=?



I managed to get the first one right but the second one is tricky. The answer shall be revealed in the next post.


Received something that really touched my heart








Can you see my name's spelling T I T U S on the cookies?!using M&Ms ??


Happy Boxing day!!

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!!

This is the season where the whole world will be celebrating. Without a single doubt, this is the most celebrated day of the whole year! Jesus is the reason for the season!I really feel blessed today cos the 2 little girls from my cg actually rem me and gave me presents!! hahaha..it sure feels good to be appreciated!



Time passes so quickly! The year is coming to an end! This year has been good! Studies wise, i got into dean's list for the first half of the year and it seems there is a high chance i get into dean's list again for last sem! Financially, things have been going quite smoothly. Friendship wise i am glad i made alot of friends in cg. Ministry wise i am glad i got to do and serve God in the cg in a greater way than before.



I guess some of the important goals for next year include a smooth transition into working life, hoping to find the partner for life and getting my family saved.
I wish i can be leaner and i wanna to do more things for God.

I really thank God for my family. My wonderful dad who work so hard, my beautiful mom so caring, and my two sis for the things they have done. My friends around me, especially those from my cg, my nus friends, u guys are really the biggest gift i gotten in life.



Once again,


MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Attacked

Time check: 2.17pm

Having less than 45 mins before the official release of results, i decided to lie my bed. Before i know it i doze off into lalalala land.


Then "it" happened again.


In my dream, there are small girls telling about ghost stories. I can't really recall. It is pretty scary, like those thai show where there is whispering and murmuring.. All i could rem that the whole atmoshpere is pretty eerie.

Sensing something is wrong, i tried to break out of the "dream". I wanna wake up. Then there is this unknown force pressing on me. Like preventing me from getting up.

Then, even though i can't see. I can "feel" there is someone pressing on me. Like someone pressing his arm on my chest and pointing his finger at me while i am lying flat on my bed, scolding me.


In case u think i am exaggerating, this is exactly how i rem.


I immediately started praying in tongues. A struggle kinda of start. "It" seems to be threatening me and making me feel scared.


The last thing i recalled , i was shaking while lying flat on my bed then i jump up my feet. Seriously, like bruce lee.


I seriously don't know "it" is some sort of hallucination or something attacked me.


But thank God for the results! I got A of every sort. Hopefully can get into dean's list.

It is simply amazing! I was sick for the 3 whole weeks.So sick that i threw up before Geo paper. But still i did well.


Glory to God.

My fears

Everyone have fears. Everyone.

I too have my own fears. Fear of darkness when i am lying on my bed. Fear of forgetting to zip when i come out of the loo. Fear of the unknown.

But courage, like they always say, is moving ahead despite of the fear!

I have been thinking,

What is my greatest fear?


Why do i need to know? Know yourself and know your enemy and the battle is half won.

I realised my greatest fear is............


Expectation.

My greatest fear is that i cannot live up to ppl's expectation of me and i cannot live up to the expectation i set for myself. Therefore i tend to be more passive in taking up responsibility unless i know i can achieve it.


I must remind myself to be a MAN. Yes M A N, MAN and do what i need to do. What matter most is how hard u try, not what u get. I need to live life for myself and have more faith in God and myself.



I need to be able to take the expectation ppl set for me and the expectation i have for myself.



Expect chickens, and you get chickens.
Expect eagles, and you might get falcons.

I wanna watch this!!

FYP?

FYP must have taken a toil on some of my friends. They came up with some funny meanings for FYP.

1) FY PUI!
2) F Your P
3) Fool Your Prof
4) Final Year Problem
5) Final Year Pain!
6) Forsake Your Personal life
7) Fan Your Prof
8) For Your Pain!
9) Find Your Purpose( HUH?!)

Happy FYP-ing and merry christmas!

Thanksgiving CG!

Sang this lovely song during thanksgving cg! we had such a good time. I hope Victoria and Sean are tearing now while watching the video!! haha...all the fun and joy , all the pain and tears we all went thru for the last one year!

It has been less than 1 year since i joined the cg. looking back, i must say it was a time of breakthru and fun! haha..breakthru in the things i do and the thinking i had. Fun in the friends i have around me and the fellowship i have.

Change is for the better. I don know how things are going to turn out but i guess there is a high chance i will not change. Then again 2009 will be the best year yet!

Happy or sad?

After countless ( ok la, not countless but say 2 to 3 emails since last fri) emails, he finally replied this:

I am presently on leave and may not be able to respond timely to your e-mail

For urgent matters, please contact the ME Dept Secretary at mpeleesl@nus.edu.sg or tel 6516-2210.

*blood boil*

In order for you to set this auto reply, you must have seen my emails!!! And you don bother to reply?!

What an CMI "excellent" professor i got.


I guess i will do an even better job and make sure he cannot fault me.

I was slacking for the last few days. Now with that email, I AM ALL FIRED UP!!!!!


I WILL FYP EVERYDAY TILL THE DAY YOU RRTURN AND OVERWHELM YOU WITH WHAT I GOT!!!

hiaz...


How come ppl can have such nice prof wherelse mine is so "out-standing"?
Guess it all can be sum up with this picture


A picture speaks a thousand word huh?


On a happier note, thanksgiving cg is tml! Finally after all the preparation!

What is the definition of living?

Having much time to think about stuff for the last few weeks...i began to wonder what is the definition of living?

I mean take a min, pause and listen to what i have to say..


everyone live their lives the way they perceive themselves to should have live.

Everyone thinks that they are doing the right thing, living the life they best they can.


So what is the real definition of living?


Have you wonder, i mean seriously, that what is the main purpose of doing all you are doing, till the day you die?

If your answer is " so that i can do well, have a good life" , then what about that? after that?

Before you think that i am going preach about some life "greater" purpose, you are wrong!



Just take a min and ask yourself.


So what are you living for? what should you live for? what to do to find out what you live for?



Without a source , there is no power!
Without meanings and goals, life is just waiting to end.


Think of your purpose today!




Hoping to make them cry!

Think

Recently someone told me that i am think too much.

I guess this is true. I take a long time to consider before getting somethings. Like my laptop. I spend one to two hours reviewing all the different models everyday for 2 weeks, from user review to durability to budget to performance before i decide. I am glad i made the right choice.
Read this and this

But sometimes it is not good to think too much, it slows down ur decision making and sometimes can lead to opportunity being lost.


Anyway I hope my prof will reply me asap!I have thought of something and I can't wait to work on it!! Somewhat this FYP has become more like self-proposed ( If he agrees to use what i have emailed him). Hopefully i can come out with a better design.


The time has come and the year is ending. Time to look back at the goals i have set and things to give thanks for.I guess this year has been pretty good! Got into dean's list once, got my driving license, got my new laptop, new hp. Although i think i will not be able to fulfil 2 personal goals, i still feel this is a good year. 2009 will be a even better year!


With greater power comes greater responsibilities!

Of old age and failing bodies

Time is alway ticking and we are alway ageing. Whether you want it or not, you have already aged the moment you are conceived in your mom's womb!

Was reminded by a friend that parents are nagging, alway calling u, alway scolding u for every little thing, alway trying to come into ur room and disturb u. Yesh, my parents are sometime like that too. I began to realised that they are just trying to let u "know" and "realise" that they exist.

As we grow older, we began to divert our time into our own stuff like outings with friends, our hobbies and private time etc..The "baby/darling/boy boy/girl girl" has grown older and divert away. In order to make us realised that they care, they are "fighting" for a part of our lives that they are losing.

Rem the time when u were young and they were carrying u in their arms or when they held ur tiny hands when crossing the road. Rem the first time u went to kindegarden and u refused to let them go home. Rem the time when they are the world to u.


One day, i will be like them of old age and failing bodies. Now they have aged considerably and have failing bodies, i constantly need to remind myself the sacrifices they have put it for me. Nope , it is not something taken for granted. Alway rem that they might be no longer around when u realised how impt they are to u.


Treasure them like they have alway treasured you :>

Life on the moon

Here in this crowd I'm feeling all alone
Turn me around and point me back to home
I'm getting lost more everyday
and I can't tear myself away
from the stars in my eyes with no light

Here are my terms, have some faith in me
and I'll let you be who you need to be

[CHORUS:]
Life on the moon, could it be any stranger?
life on the moon, wouldn't feel as far away?
the life that I knew is through
and I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
life on the moon

Flown off the ground my head's up in the air
self conscious to a fault with other people everywhere
It's getting harder every night, to take the punches left and right
just to know that you are here by my side

Here are my terms, have some faith in me
and I'll let you be who you need to be

[CHORUS]
Life on the moon, could it be any stranger?
life on the moon, wouldn't feel as far away?
the life that I knew is through
and I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
life on the moon

Getting lost in my own atmosphere
stars in the sky all the stars in my eyes
is the cost of getting out of here alive

Life on the moon, could it be any stranger?
life on the moon, wouldn't feel as far away?
the life that I knew is through
and I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
life on the moon

Food

This few days have been fun! ahaha..been eating out and using the vouchers. Went to Haagen Dazs to have some ice-creams. Oh my the stuff there is like so darn ex.But they really taste good!! HAHA..Believe it or not, this is the FIRST time i ever ate Haagen Dazs ice-creams at its outlet.Afer which Myrna and i went to this noodle place at Far east! been there once with the ex POS oldies. Serve nice food!


Ice-creams!!






Feels like biting into the scallop!!!





After which she left for her subzone stuff while I went to meet sean terence and lionel for some " Operations Storm". I was early and i went to shop around! Wasn't intending to get stuff but saw some really nice shirts and berms selling at really low prices. Point of no return! I end up getting two shirts...HAHA




Enough of photo taking with my new N85. Pretty happy with it's photo capturing capabilities.

Back to Naval Architecture ----__----

Rhino is so cute!!

Check this out

You won't regret it!

Anyway i went to watch Bolt today!!! oh my Rhino is soooooo darn cute!! I reckon he is one of the cutest character i have seen! Nice hamster!

Got my N85 today and i am quite happy with it. Was considering LG Renoir and Samsung Pixon but they seems to have alot of bug(for LG) or doesn't have essential functions i need like GPS and Wifi( Samsung). Like alway, Nokia never fails to surprise me. The 8G memory, the GPS, the Dual-sliding mechanism, the 6M colour OLED screen and the compact size simply blew me away!


I finally found my prof! met up with him and finally he told me some ideas where to head to. He confessed that he wasn't aware of the newly developed kites and kinda at a loss what is there for me to do too. Hiaz, but in the end we end up deciding that i should do one of the 3 topics we come out with.Seriously, all of them sound tough. Guess i got to start working on them!



i got so much food vouchers! i need to start spending them. From Haagen Dazs to Kenny Rogers to Capitaland to MS vouchers. Anyone wanna eat out?!

FYP = Find Your Prof

WHERE ARE YOU??!!

 

Here I'm standing outside your door, knocking and seeking, how come I can't find you?!

How about the emails I sent you last week?? Has your mail blown up? Have you gone overseas without informing your dear student?

 

Yes, it has been a long while since we met up, but that does not mean you don't reply the last 5 emails
I sent you!!

 

I am sooo going to wait for you. At least for the next 2 hours, in case you woke up late and be in school.

 

Hiaz , I wonder if sending a reply email can be sooo difficult meh? Just type ok and click send!

 

Saw 5 friends while on my way back to sch. They are here to do FYP. I can see their "Full of enthusiasm" and "Excited" face, with special mention to Small Shrimp. I almost thought it was me who spoilt the day.

 

Here I am sitting in the library, looking at all the muggers, mostly graduate students , doing their work.

 

 

Anyone wanna go out?????

 

Hello Kitty

Came back from sending my sis off for her trip when i walk past the voiddeck and there i saw it sitting at the usual spot, looking into the empty air. I lighten my footstep and walk past it qucikly. I held my breathe for a while and zoom past it, not wanting to disturb it.


Came afternoon, I went to pass my dad some stuff and there i saw it trying to do the usual "sneaky" stuff. I slow down my footstep and stand to observe, wanting to catch it in the act. Then just like those shows u see them in, it just freeze, with one foot in the air, even though i was behind it!


I went to sit down at one of the voiddeck chair and waited for it to resume "action"
Then like a recharged toy, it lowers his raised foot and started "prowling". Observing the target, it slowly and carefully trend towards the "targets".


I seldom said this...but



This is one cute cat( The one at my voiddeck looks just like this.)




"Prowling"

Personality test

Your view on yourself:

Other people find you very interesting, but you are really hiding your true self. Your friends love you because you are a good listener. They'll probably still love you if you learn to be yourself with them.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education:

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have many goals and want to achieve as much as you can. The jobs you enjoy are those that let you burn off your considerable excess energy.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.


Accurate?

Touched

Just came back from CG. We sang a chinese Song just now and it is really nice! The lyrics are simple but heartfelt. Like most Christian worship songs, it speaks about the love of God. God is all about love. Simple as that. No relativity theory or whatsoever. He just wants us to know He is there and He wants us to be connected back to Him. so touched by the song today.


Got this nice wallpaper on my new lappy.




Now exams are over, i am kinda lost. Starting to research on FYP. Oh ya!!


David cook latest album are out, so all his fans do check it out.



I want to love You even more..

Rhino the fat hamster

End of Exams!

Today marks the final day of my exam! Finally. Not because i really want to end it but more of I can finally rest! been sick for so long and i really need some time to chill and rest! Believe it or not, i got today exam question 2 weeks before! he gave 115 qns and out of which 56 came out for today's paper. The thing is i am so sick, i got no time to finish. Being sick really cut my "power" by half this sem. I guess nothing much i can do about it. Pray and hope for the best!

Anyway my laptop is coming tml morning!!! I checked today's price and realised that if i order today instead of last thurs , during which the IT fair is ongoing, i will need to pay about 2.2k instead of about 1.9k!


After exams i am soooooo going PUSH MYSELF EVEN HARDER! haha..yes..after a quick rest, i will move on to FYP! So sian! going to email my prof and meet up with him. I am so going to do what i alway wanted to do. Going to bring my laptop and work at sentosa! sitting by the beach when there is no one. Going to town and get a coffee and enjoy the aircon. Read a book. RUN AND PUMP IRONS! Train Muay Thai!



And according to the song, Christmas is coming! looking at things, i don think i will reach some of the goals i set for end of this year but i guess man plans his ways but God direct his path. We shall see how!!


Can't wait for Christmas!!

Sianed

Came back after a day from lib..i am feeling sian. Not tired.

Can't wait for exams to be over...hiaz...but then after exams it will be FYP.

I hate to feel aimless and that is how i feel about my FYP. What am i going to do? The prof is a slacker..i need to PUSH him( Try me now in this, say Titus the student). I make sure he will regret for being so slack!!! HAHAHa...


Today i read the new about the first singaporean to die in a terrorist attack. While reading the news, i have a mixed feeling of anger and frustration. i guess alot of ppl felt the same way. What a pity! a young pretty lawyer at the prime of her life and shot dead?! i feel like unleashing all i got on the so called "heroes" love ones..yes..not on them but on their love one and make them understand how it feels...but then i realised violence is not the way...if i do that, i am just like them...hopefully we will not see such violences in any near future.


Was talking to my cg member regarding fortune telling. His parents are super into it and he is kinda affected by it. Apparently whatever the mage says all came true. From my pt of view, so what if it is accurate?! It does not mean whoever got beard is your father and whoever predict your future correctly is your god! HAHA...


When i was young, i rem my parents brought me to different fortune tellers and all of them( according to my memories) said the same few things about me. They said when i grow up, there will be alot of girls going after me(??????!!!!!!), they say i am going to be an extremely intelligent and cunning guy(I mean PTL for the former but the latter?!) and something regarding my vocation. But i believe Destiny is in God's hand but you are the one who ultimately live it. No pt saying all the good things when u don do what u should..


Back to books.

PC Fair

Today before service i head to PC fair. OMG it is soo packed! Comex is so much better..more stuff and more room. Didn't really get anything but was glad to find out that i got the Dell laptop at a lower price then the price they are selling at Sitex.


Can't wait for exams to be over!


Talking to youths can be so much fun. They are ready to listen what you got to tell them and they can be very moldable. However they can test your long suffering and needs much more attention.

Break

Phew after one week at the library for everyday from morning to night, i am feeling abit tired.

Going to rest and reward myself by watching a movie on my Portable Harddisk!

Haven't step into a cinema for a long long time!!


After reading my friend blogged about her name's meaning, i did a search and found this..

The meaning of the name Titus is Giant

The origin of the name Titus is Greek

Notes: "Titus Andronicus" play by William Shakespeare.


Basically it means of the giant or defender...ahaha...at least it sound musculine!


After exams i will go straight into my FYP! so many weeks never touch! i will be working from town! basically i will meet my prof and then i am free to roam and do my work! likely will choose a town location! buy a coffee and do my work!!! anyone got recommendation ?!



In my mind there is so many things i wanna do for this holiday!

Going to sungei buloh to take pictures of animals, going to night safari, chilling and catching up friends!

Oh ya christmas is coming!!! i made some resolutions like getting a license by the end of the year and some others( can't reveal). Hopefully i can achieve them!!


Time to watch movies!

New laptop

Finally I got a new laptop.

Sorry Ken, it is NOT a mac!

Was going to get a mac when i realised that alot of engineering program can't run even though it is dual boot. Apparently bootcamp is not that compatible with all the programs. With the chances of me using Fluid Analysis programs( which i hope i don't have too), i decided to settle for dell xps m1530. Mainly because it is cheap, big and recommended by Dell users.


Was thinking hard whether to spend when i list down the reasons for getting..

1)Intensive use next sem.
Right after exams, i will be going headon with my FYP almost daily. This means having a good working laptop is important.

2)Poor condition of current laptop
My current laptop batt is totally spoilt( 5 min batt life), cranky fan( got to run out of library when it makes noise, really loud noise) and cranky keyboard at times.I got reach lib so i can get a plug, if not i can't use my laptop :S

3)Cost-benefit
Wanting to fix my current laptop but it is 3.5 years old without warrenty! Don really wanna spend a few hundred to get new batt, new fan and servicing. Think it is better to go for a new one.



Can't wait for my new laptop to come. wanna start watching movies on it!!

Sick

Been sick so many days!!! since monday!! i must recover tml!!

Recently I have been eyeing some new gadgets.Told myself that i will buy myself a new phone if i pass my driving in one attempt! and i did! Finally! *kissing my class 3 license* but then i have been very indecisive. I am looking for the best offers, looking researching and thinking...finally i narrow down to n85 and samsung pixon. To my surprise, samsung pixon is selling lower than n85!!! Well, i am hoping to fork out less than 200 for the phone. So hopefully after trade in and recontract it will be cheaper.

other than hp, laptop is my next concern. With heavy usage coming up next sem for fyp research, i will need a reliable one. somehow by God's grace, my 3.5 years IBM laptop seems ok again! haha..well but i have already done alot of research and i narrow to 3. Compaq CQ45( winner of cnet asia best laptop ) , Dell XPS M1530 and apple new macbook. XPS and CQ45 cost me about 2k each with the very good spec( 2.4GHz processer at least, 3 to 4G ram and delicated graphic card) while the new macbook cost me 2.3k with much lower spec( mac supposely perform better even with lower spec). I guess i have end of this holiday to decide which to get. likely i will keep my budget to below 2k. somemore it is building funds period, can't spend much money. Hopefully my parents will sponsor me. Anyone using any of the laptop pls give some advice!



Next paper will be on rock science!! 2 hours paper, 50 short answer qn( a few sentence) and 3 out 6 essay qn! This is madness!!


Can't wait to get well. I need to lose weight...gain a tummy now from sitting in the lib. can't wait to hit 20km next week!!!


"like a new couple, we are bound to feel uncomfortable"

When I woke up today
And thought of all the things You’d done
I find myself here
Feeling oh so overcome

You gave Your life away for me
Truly my heart belongs to You
So let me say

How could I ever thank You for
What You did at Calvary
When You bled and died for me
How could I ever turn away
Knowing that You paid the price
That I could never pay

When I think of the way
That You died upon that Cross
Bearing my sin
Even though my heart was lost

You gave Your life away for me
Truly my heart belongs to You
So let me say

How could I ever thank You for
What You did at Calvary
When You bled and died for me
How could I ever turn away
Knowing that You paid the price
That I could never pay


TP tml. Asia Conference tml. First paper sat. I am sick.

Your Word is a light unto my path
Your Love guides me through my darkest night
And even though sometimes Your ways
I cannot understand
I’ll never walk away because my future’s

Coz I’m running after You
Don’t matter what may come my way
I’m running after you
It’s You I’m following today
I’m running after You

How to hack a vending machine?

What a day.I finally finished my Geo report and powerpoint! That is the most frustrating thing that i had to do for this sem! so much referencing, so much things to read..so many things to take note! i really dislike arts module!!


Anyway...R and his GF L came and mug with me at central library. L happened to chance upon a way to hack the bottle vending machine! How cool is that! LOL.

Check this out!!



As you all might have know, i love drinking Coke Zero. Because it is sugar free and it keeps me awake!

After mugging for a few hours, we decided to try this trick on the vending machine outside central library, along the way to arts canteen!!



We excitedly slot in the coin and try to stop the bottle from coming out, just like what the video mentioned. The machine tried to push the bottle out twice , just like what the video said.

Then, just like what the video said, the device went to the bottom.

BUT THE COIN DIN CAME OUT!!!!

We were stunted for a moment.---__---


They must have upgraded the software. The bottle was standing there and we decided to buy another one so both will come out. which it did in the end.



So much for the cheap thrill...HAHAHHA

God is the strength of my heart

Whom have I in heaven but You
There is nothing on earth I desire beside You
My heart and my strength many times they fail
But there is one truth that always will prevail


God is the strength of my heart
God is the strength of my heart
God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever, forever


You alone is the strength of my heart!

Project " KYT"

Project successful!

Hopefully it is the first and last time i actually kidnap someone, tied him up and transport him away.


HAHA

Dreaming

Yesterday i had the weirdest dream.

In my dream, i was in a super big stadium with tens of thousand of people in it.

In my dream, i was taking part in a swimming competition.The crowd were roaring and man , i feel like i am on the top of the world!!!


For those who know me well, you would have know that i used to a very good swimmer and almost joined SASA until I went into basketball. My pet event was the 50m breaststroke and i rem that it was my body proportion that gives me the advantage in that event.PHEW, i miss those time man...




In the dream, i saw MH. HAHA . So funny! we took part in the same competition. And i beat him! i rem we were in the water pushing ourselves forward and i rem going all out for the race and slapping the wall!!MAN MAN MAN!!!! Haven't had that feeling for sooooooooooo long!!!




Enough of my dream. Today Yuantai was kidnapped after prayer meeting.

His Gf planned with us to celebrate his bday early before exams start.

We caught him unaware and taped him up. He struggled like mad sia..HAAHHA


After that we carried him down all the way to a car waiting.He is so heavy!! i was carrying his butt area and that is like so heavy!!


Fastforward.

The people were waiting there and of cos with thousands of pictures taken, the GF sang a song for him and do all the romantic stuff.Kissing and kissing and more kissing *hair stand*



What a day.hahha...What an exciting GF.


But personally i hope my gf will not do such a thing.hahahah...

I wanna Sleep All Day

His after moan though cries oh no
He's building up a shine but he take it slow
And he knows it's time to make a change here And time to get away
And he knows it's time for all the wrong reasons, oh, time to end the pain
But he sleep all, sleep all day, sleep all, we sleep all day over again
Why don't we?

She said what would your mother think and how would your father react oh lord
Would he take it all back what they've done
No way he said take it, take it and don't break it with your own two hands
That was my old man and he said
if all is grounded you should go make a mountain out of it

oh what a lovely day to have a slice of humble pie
recalling of the while we used to drive and drive here and there
going nowhere but for us, nowhere but for the two of us
and we knew it was time to take a chance here
and time to compromise our lives just a little while
and it was time for all the wrong reasons
but time is often on my side and I give it to you tonight
and we sleep all, sleep all day, sleep all, we sleep all day over again

as time goes by we get a little bit tired waking and baked another Marlboro mile wide
it's sending the boys on the run in the time in hot summer sun
to swim beneath or over outside as they're reading between the lines
then they remember the part in the hallmark card where they read about the dreams
and reaching for the stars to hold on a little bit closer to
and they knew it was time, time to take a chance here
time to compromise our little lives just a little while
and they knew it was time for all the wrong and, lonely, lonesome reasons, oh
as time is often on my side and I give it to you, oh boy
and we sleep all, sleep all day, sleep all, we sleep all day over again

She said what would your mother think and how would your father react oh lord
Would he take it all back what they've done
No way he said take it, take it and don't break it with your own two hands
That was my old man and he said
if all is grounded you should go make a mountain out of it

My geek look

Took some geeky pic while fellowshipping jus now.


Somehow got some anger in me over what someone said to me just now.

Personally I feel

1) If you don't know , you can't conclude.
2) i don look at who tell me, i look at the overall picture and see for myself who is right or wrong.


Life is never black and white. It is alway in different patches of grey.What you see, might not be what you get. Your close friends might not be right all the time.


I think it is not good to pass judgement too fast. Time, as i always say, is the best indication of truth.


Enough of that, i must say this.


THANK YOU SHARON LAU FOR HELPING ME PRINT MY REPORT , BINDING IT FOR ME AND WAITED 2 HOURS TO PASS IT TO ME!

I am eternally grateful! haha...



And if you are going to conclude that there is something going on, i can tell you there is NONE!


What has the world become? Every good thing someone of opposite sex did for you is being translated to BGR?

My eyes!!

After staying in the lib for 12 hours, my eyes hurt!!!


ARghh...


Taking a break soon before carrying on...so much stuff to do!!!


Feels like running or doing some muay thai.


Really like the song on my blog!


Anyway

Happy bday to Ivan. His bday wish is to get a dream girl for gf! So if you are looking for a good and homely guy with a good sense of responsibility and smart and have a bright future in front of him and have a good dress sense etc...Pls submit your application forms!




One day,
You'll have to let go,
You'll have to let it go,
No,
One day,
You'll stand up on your own,
You'll stand up on your own.
Yeah.
Remember losing hope,
Remember feeling low,
Remember all the feelings and the day the stopped

For you

Oh Johnny wishes he was famous,
Spends his time alone in the basement,
With a Lennon and Cobain and,
A guitar and a stereo.
While he wishes he could escape this,
But it all seems so contagious,
Not to be yourself and faceless,
In a song that has no soul.

I remember feeling low,
And I remember losing hope,
And I remember all the feelings
And the day they stopped

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.
We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.

Jina's losing faith in what she knows,
Hates her music, hates all of her clothes,
Thinks of surgery, and a new nose,
Every calories a war.
While she wishes she was a dancer,
And that she'd never heard of cancer,
She wishes God would give her some answers,
And make her feel beautiful.

I remember feeling low,
And I remember losing hope,
And I remember all the feelings
And the day they stopped

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.
We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.

One day,
You'll have to let go,
You'll have to let it go,
No,
One day,
You'll stand up on your own,
You'll stand up on your own.
Yeah.
Remember losing hope,
Remember feeling low,
Remember all the feelings and the day the stopped.

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.
We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.

One day,
You'll have to let go,
You'll have to let it go,
No,
One day,
You'll stand up on your own,
You'll stand up on your own.

Yeah
We are, we are all innocent

Jenny

Jenny

She calls me baby, then she won't call me.
Says she adores me and then ignores me.
Jenny, what's the problem?
She keeps her distance and sits on fences.
Puts up resistance and builds defenses.

Jenny, what's the problem?
You leave me hanging on the line.
Every time you change your mind.

First You say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and we're not moving on.
I"m standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny, it's killing me.

She needs her own space. She's playing mind games.
Ends up at my place saying that she's changed.
Jenny, what's the problem?
I'm trying to read between the lines.
You got me going out of my mind.

First, you say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and we're not moving on.
I'm standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny, it's killing me. It's killing me. It's killing me.
Jenny.

First, you say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and I'm not moving on.
I'm standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny.

First, you say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and we're not moving on.
I'm standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny. It's killing me. It's killing me. Jenny.

Coping With Losses

In life, it is normal to lose people and things.

Like, i once lost a phone.

Lost my wallet before.

Lost friends.

Lost my meaning in life.



The most important thing, sometimes, is not about getting the thing back.


It is learning how to cope with the loss and learning what went wrong.



Easier said than done.

But you can do it.

Can't wait for my projects to end!!!!!




ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clubbing

Time check: 2 pm


I woke up and the room seems to be rocking.

*hangover*

First thing that i said,

" Shucks, half the day was gone."


supposed to report back to camp. But after last night clubbing session, i kinda got knock out by the graveyards and flaming lamboS i down.


then i woke up with this terrible hangover.


Suddenly i felt empty on the inside.

I spend 100 plus the night before..burnt my stomach and liver. Woke up late for camp and had a terrible headache.



Waste of time, waste of youth.


That was the last time i thought clubbing was fun.

my closet

Just came back from my first tuition lesson.Tutoring this poly guy for structural mechanics. Cos BF is coming , given my allowance and savings, i can't do much. Thank God for the provision. He came to look for me. Hopefully I will do well in it.


Came home, took off my belt and was suddenly captivated by the view of my closet.

I opened it wanting to put my belt in and realised that my closet really define me.


Some key objects i realised that paint a good picture about myself.

1) My shades belts and chains

Obviously i am pretty vain for a guy. But hey, it is alway good to look sharp :>


2) My boxing gloves skipping rope and all the different guards

Never really used them alot. I dont feel like hurting people. But i like muay thai. Just DON'T pick a fight with me if you don't know any martial arts. Don't try.

3) Vodka and Gin

Recently into alcoholic drinks. Perhap it is a good way to calm my nerves. Na, i am not alcoholic.

4) True singaporea ghost stories collecttion + various guides to werewolves witch ghost + different theories about ghoul


If you know me, i am an EXTREMELY good ghost story teller. If you want to be scared, call me.

5) Amplified bible

Sometimes I do get scared by myself too..hahaha...so i placed a super thick amplified bible there to "counter" the horror.ahah.


6) Club Marc shopping bag and various hidden ones

Yes. I shop. Alot.

Stretched

Stretched.

Today was one of those day that what can go wrong have gone wrong.


But at the end of the day , God turn it all around for me!


Thank God for His grace!


Praying for a breakthrough in my connect group and cell group!!


I need to go up another level.


But each according to his faith, and go as far as your faith take you. Outdoing yourself each time by a little.




Above everything, lives have to be changed.



Ultimately it is God whom I am serving.

Sick

Need to get well soon. So many projects not done. Tests coming up.

Prayers work wonders.

Calculation

I was doing a mental calculation.

I kinda do it once every few months or whenever something cropped up that makes me wanna do this calculation.


To me it is call a RC. Relative Calculator.


I feel it is very very important to have a calculation and summarise what have happened in your life and how things around are slowly changing.

Like

1) Relationship

I will think of who are the people i avoid and who are the people i made an attempt to get close to. Why am i doing so and am i doing the right thing. To put it plainly, choosing your close friends. There are people whom i choose to make an extra effort to talk to and relate to because i know they care for me...not for my comfort but for my growth as a person. Let's take K for an example, everytime i have a problem, i will try to talk to him even though he is overseas. I will make it a point to read his blog daily and get to know him better. Because i know he is a man of principles and he will not hestiate to tell me my faults, of cos, in a gentle manner.Friends no doubt shape your thinking.I am not too keen to have friends who are out just to have fun.Don't get me wrong, they are important too but they go as far as fun can go. True friends instill good principles in you and that is very important.


2) Personal

In this area , i will think back on my personal growth as a person. Have i force myself to see the bad side of me and try to correct it? Have i try to work hard? Have i put a balance in life? Have i went for what is right and important? Have i scolded myself when i did the wrong thing? have i put the wrong expectatiosn on people. But well, it is good to have a "wake up" call but don't condemn yourself! i always tell myself to keep changing. it is not easy but it is a must. The saddest thing in life is to be in your own world, thinking your are right all the time and feeling sorry for yourself when people try to correct you.


3) Output

Am i a positive source to people around me? Have i made a positive contribution to my surrounding? Sometime we get carried away that we fail to see that "light of the world and salt of the earth" means you stand out for something good! are you complaining most of the time? are you gossiping all the time? have you tried to praise people? this is what i ask myself..personally i like to make ppl laugh and i always believe that laughter is the best medicine.


So relatively, how have i performed as compared to the last time i calculated? there will be up and down like the stocks but i do hope it will increase like what stocks usually do in the long term.

Because we are not perfect, that's why we need to always reflect on our actions and pray for an improvement!


Be cool!

Was on my way back home when i met Gladys!

She is the girl who appeared on Harvest Highlights last week and likely this week too.

Talking to her seems to bring back all the memories. I still rem i was in year 1 when she was my helper in children church. We used to do visitation in woodlands. Enduring all the perspirations and tears as we scout the land for kids.

Now 3 years plus later, we are both graduating from Uni soon and she is already in children church cell group having her old children church visitation group.



Time and tide waits for no man. Must enjoy every moment of life before it is gone.Be it ministry or personal life, i want to live life to the fullest!

Lucky

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Humans are difficult creatures.

Having read both side of the stories, I am having a headache.

To be honest, there is nothing wrong with each other.

The only thing that has gone bad between both of them is the relationship.

Many times i feel like talking to one side and advising the party to let go but then again i wonder if i have the right to do so.

As a gentleman, it is good to take a humble stand and not talk about it again even though you might feel unhappy about it. Even when you are angry over something that was mentioned, it takes a gentleman to swallow his pride to do the right thing. Not many man i've seen can do that.


As a fair lady, the best thing to do is to avoid sensitive topic. As i alway say, emotions cloud judgement, keep your head cool and stay happy.Don't try to talk about it again.At least not in near future. Don't read and try to "retaliate" what was said. Let begone be be-gone.


Easier said than done. But it still have to be said first before it can be done.


Humans.

Awesome day

Today was one my best day.

Woke up and feeling really bad and i was praying for a breakthrough and a change of mindset. God is alway good and i really felt comforted.


Off i went to school and i got back my test result. Aren't that fantastic. Perhaps i am a perfectionist, i want to do my best and i just feel it is not what i should be getting. I believe I can do much better than that.


Went for muay thai and after showering, i discovered a bump on my left forearm. I think during the light sparring sessions, one of the guy must have accidentally "touched" it. Sprained my left foot. I think i got a torn muscle or something. Everytime i exert pressure , the bump sort of get bigger and i need to rub to make it smaller. Hopefully it will go away by tml.



I dress quite differently when i train muay thai so i took some pic....
This is also my last few lessons for this sem...ya..

I can't wait for everything to be over!

I love You I love You I love You

Journey to the centre of the earth

Had a slack day. Woke up with a headache. Somehow i didn't really sleep well last night. Was thinking of some stuff. To be exact, what i did during service. Frankly speaking, i don't know what gave me the faith to wrote down what i did. God must have given me the faith!

Sometimes we will feel that we are lacking or not good enough. On many occasion i felt the same way and i realised it is pure pride or the lack of faith. If you are really concerned about doing what you are called to do, you will not be worried that you can't achieved what you are called. Because of the fear of losing "face" , you tend to worry you will embarrass yourself if you don't do well.If you are called to the vision, God will definitely provide the provision. Take a step of faith and have thicker skin!



After doing my power point for my project, i went for a jog and watched "Journey to the centre of the earth". Alway like watching movies to destress.


Alright, back to rock science. Yup Not rocket science. I am studying the different type of rocks that form oil and gas. Sounds interesting? na...not even close to what was said in the show i watched.


God of the city!

Wei Ni Si De Lei

Service

Today service was mind-blowing!

period.




Made some resolutions. And what i expected to be a fine night didn't really turn out that fine. But i guess it is alway a choice to look at things on the bright side and be happy with what God has given to us.Though i might not understand why, and no matter how i reason yet i can't apprehend, i know that He is in control.


Wore my Club Marc shirt to service. I really like it..think i should be heading towards more mature clothes.



looks nicer when wore.LOL.



I hope that i can serve God in a greater manner.Visualise my friend..


Keep smiling.

Club Marc

Just got back from zone conference and while walking pass Club Marc, i realised that they got a mega sale going on. Went in and came out with a long sleeve shirt at a fraction of the price! So all the shopping freaks, you might want to check it out.

Some outdated pictures..


Dinner with ____________. Think i better not reveal the name cos don want you guys to have the wrong idea. The place we went to was at wheelock "secret corner" Food there is not exactly cheap but i like the ambience there..nice!





Went to Harris with some of my ex Nus friends...Drinks are rather ex but it was a nice fellowship....



our drinks...



Was analyzing my expenses..realised that although i spend alot..most of it was a need. like formal wear and leather bag...need them in future eventually...except for the Club Marc shirt i got...guess i use it for smart casual networking...nice..


There are 6 and half couple in my cg now! feels abit weird to be walking around so many "paired people".


Projects!! ARGHHHH...can't wait to end this sem. I don't recall i study much. Everyday just camp in the library rushing my project! argh...i must finish strong!
