Have you heard of a saying,
Those who were playing,
You don't know what you've got till its gone
Well that was my calling,
I knew I was falling into something that would be so wrong...

But I got hold of myself
and changed for the better
I cant get you outta my mind
Cause something inside made me realise you were far

Each time when we're alone
I guess I didn't know, how far we were apart
Should have spoken to my heart..

I guess I didn't know
That each time you go away I cry

I can't take all these goodbyes....

Its called the S2000 and if I had the money, I would buy one. Its by no means a new car, I think the first model was released in 1999 but its a revolution. Honda finally produced another rear-wheel drive sports car aside from the ridculously priced NSX. It has 2 litre DOTC vtec engine which produces 240hp, and it revs to 9000. I would have one in this colour. Its not the fastest car in the world, but its one of the most beautiful..

STUPID EXAM!!

I swear the media planning unit coordinator was trying to kill us today, by coming up with a ridiculous paper. IT WAS HARDDDDDDDDD....You know how finals usually don't have stuff that already came out in the MID SEM?? MY gosh....there was a whole big mass from the early part of sem. I think it caught everyone off guard. I could hear the collective sighs of frustration after everyone settled down with their paper.

Nevertheless, I SHOULD pass cause I could do most of it. But it was stressful because I was seriously lacking in the theory section. OH well..Well enough about my life because its seriously boring. I'm a very boring person who doesn't do much, I eat, sleep, study, watch anime, drive and thats about it..haha..

ANYWAY..I actually settled down to read some blogs and woah, some were dark....which got me thinking...

Its like kinda ez to slump into depression and a place like PERTH just aids the process I guess. BUt being happy is making the most of your surroundings right? HA, its tough I know, but i think i'm finally satisfied with PERTH. It sure took awhile though.

Sometimes you know in your heart that you're in the wrong, but pride stops you from saying sorry. Think about it.

EXAMS EXAMS EXAMS

Today is the day which my exam commences, 14th of NOV...I begin with MEDIA PLANNING 250. How do I put this, I'm not afraid. I've studied and I know I've studied. And I can't do anymore because my brain is more saturated than the dead sea. I know God will protect me as i step into the examination hall later.

Finally, the semester is drawing to a close. It really hasn't been the easiest semester and boy, thats one helluva understatement. After this, only one more semester remains, oh man I'm already dreaming.

Despite being bz with stuff and all, I would say this sem I've really made quite a lot of good friends. Its been a great semester in that sense. In a driving sense I've improved too! hee hee. I realised that when i brake for a corner, I always brake too early. Now I know how to utilise the ABS more and brake abit later, which of coz, makes my lap times faster.

AIM FOR NEXT SEM : Left-foot braking to counter understeer....

Delivering TOFU has its perks..hahaha..two poor undergrads rushing home after service to study for EXAMS....arghhh

Was thinking back...to my army days...

Several memories still linger strongly in my 2 1/2 year jail term in SAF. As much as I didn't like it when i was in it, I can safely say that I learnt how to overcome anything and everything that came my way. I met some fantastic people, people who were nerds before coming into army, yet left as real men.

I wasn't a brilliant sergeant in the army, it was a small leadership role I played in the recce platoon in the 4th Singapore Infantry Regiment. Well, the problem is, I don't like telling people what to do, because I don't like getting told what to do. Haha. Thankfully, I was blessed with capable troopers (some were more capable than me), who were fairly cooperative.

Still remember on the hot afternoons, we would gather to play soccer, all the cursing, all the swearing...all the memories. I miss that. The mahjong sessions until 6am. I miss that. The chats we had when we were outfield in the darkness. I miss that. The deafening sound of rifles going off in the range. I miss that. Getting kicked around during P.O.W training. Dun really miss that.

Well, its proof that GOD brings light, even in the darkest of times..

One of my men asked me once "So sarge chris, what are you going to do after we get out?"

I replied "Don't have a clue..if only I didn't screw up my A's.."

The thing is now, I don't regret screwing up my A's, infact, it is probably one of the biggest blessings of my life. I got to come to Australia to study, to learn and to get reunited with CHRIST.

If only I knew then, what I know now.

SO don't dismiss the bad stuff that happens, it can be a blessing
