Well this is just a update on the rather uninteresting week that has just gone by.

common tests were on this week for JC's and most Poly's, so everyone was like mugging and complaining, myself included. haha. i sat at home and stoned on days i did not have papers, but i must say i did study and revise.

a slightly more interesting end to this week was that, besides the short time i spent in school today, went to watch the show "Wanted", loads of violence and slight gore, heavy special effects, limited vocab in the script but the storyline was more or less ok, not to deep nor shallow. watched it with the peeps. and then went to church to help out with the GR thing.

and thus, this is my uninteresting ending to my more or less interesting week.

It was that terrible heartache that was wedged in between, as his heart was caught in the middle of a tug-of-war. It was an emotional struggle to forget the present past. As another tear fell, he then realized that whether, if he having those feelings for her did matter at all. In a mental fight to forget everything, he decided to settle it once and for all. screaming it all out.

As the sun continued to set in the now fading horizon, he took a deep breath of the cool evening air. Slowly, as he opened his eyes with his head tilted upwards, Corey set his gaze into the calm orange sky. The week that had gone by had been a wonderful one for him, the times that he had spent with her were still fresh in his memory. Now, she was "gone". Sometimes, he still couldn't bring himself to accept the fact that she only considered him a friend. As a cool gentle breeze blew by, he saw it. The vision, a flashback of the time when they spent by the sea. He remembered of how the sea breeze flowed through her hair, that soft smile and her eyes that sparkled each time they met his. Rudely being brought back to reality by his ringing phone, Corey answered it still in a daze. It was her! For that moment, his eyes brightened as he visualized her dimpled face that was dotted with a few freckles.

Suddenly he felt like he was on cloud nine, even a simple "hi" from her had taken his breath away. As they spoke, he felt that as if his pain and emotional battle that he had been experiencing was won. The sky was now dark, as Corey ended their call. The emotional struggle had disappeared, the pain had ceased and he felt the world at his feet. Maybe being just friends wasn't so bad at all. He smiled to himself as he got of the ledge of the roof. Pacing steadily across the warm concrete to the roof entrance, his phone rang again, this time it was louder. Trying to answer the phone, he jammed his finger repeatedly into the answer button, but still, nothing happened. It rang even louder still this time, for a moment in time, his world halted to a stop. The skies turned white and crumbled around him.

As sunlight flooded his pupils, he knew. It was just a dream. A dream that he wished he didn't have to wake up from. The ringing? It was the alarm on his phone.

-The End-

I had the urge to type something. haha. lame and crazy story huh ((:

gotlost at 12:16 AM;

gonna play tennis later, so i tot i'll just blog now.

Wednesday:
its past 12am and 4 people are still playing bridge online. one loves the beautiful game of soccer, the other two are best friends and take dunno how to to figure out their partners, of which one of them are prone to sugar rushes, lastly one is the clown typing this. guess who? anw it was jolene's birthday so like dunno how many, but many people met at gombak to go to safra to play laserquest. but unfortunately, guess what, the place was booked like for the whole day la. so anw, it took like forever for the girls to decide where to go. in the end we decided to go to vivo early. went there to get the tickets for the show Get Smart, and i realised that watching the show with 20 of your friends beats watching it alone anyday. DUH! had a starbucks coffee before that, and then after the show, it too another 10000 years for the girls to decided. thus this proves that girls aren't very decisive, but the guys after "hen pecked". uh, nvm forget what i just said. anw went to pastamania in the end and had a baked rice. played bridge again till abt 9pm. then went home to fetch bro and walked with him and matt to yew tee mrt. met bryan, amos and darius at 2310 to go to amos' house to stayover. reached his house at 12am.

Thursday:
settled down in amos' house and, yes, you guess it, we played bridge AGAIN. played till 0245 and then watched the match between Spain and Greece. Spain won after a 90 min 2nd goal. played more bridge and did stupid stuff like lip sync-ing Queen songs. was super funny. thn at like 5 plus, played abit of PS2 thn called it ALMOST a "night". talked and crapped in amos' room till darius, amos and noah fell asleep. talk to bryan till 7am thn went to sleep. woke up at 0945 because amos started "gaying" people. thn went into a WWE frenzy and came out alive with no broken bones. haha. then we went for brunch. came back and played more bridge. sorry. WE ARE BRIDGE ADDICTS.

went to games day still feeling rather alive. we were there early, soo we played bridge. haha, then the games started. soccer, touch rug and frisbee. went fishing for awhile with titus chong and sameul ten. it was fishies all day. caught quite a few. thn wentback to where the guys were and played soccer. finishing games day. this time, everybody took another 10000 years to decide where to eat. some wanted IKEA tampines/queenstown, others wanted T3. blah blah blah. finally, went to tampines mall to eat. by the time we bought our food and stuff it was alr 9pm, then ah someone got another sugar rush, haha. ate and talked till 2130 and thn, it was either bus or train. so took 969 to yishun mrt. the trip was thankfully shorter thn i expected. and played bridge on the bus again. so when i say we are addicts, i mean it. crazy right, took the train home with bro, jan and danna. came home and took a shower and played computer till 1am. and thn went to sleep.

whooo. so this is all i have for now. till the next post.

ciao

THE REST ARE FOR YOUR VIEWING AND LAUGHING PLEASURE.

again, like the youth camp, these are some of my favourites

gotlost at 9:00 PM;

whoooo! finally back from one week of camp! it was a good one. for me i learnt many new lessons, made new friends, strengthen bonds and saw the side of people you don't usually do. at first when i found out on the first day that i was dorming with my bro, i was quite unhappy, cos its like you see him everyday. and now you see him again. but anyway. i learnt things from him and i guess he did from me too. God's will!

so anyway this is roughly what happened over the six days i was away with no internet connection! lol

9th June:
... slept at 3am cause i was excited abt cant and woke up at 5:45 to get ready. then met uncle steven and aunty michelle to get fetched to church with jan and sis. reached there to realize that i didn't bring my earphones for my iPod. gosh. thankfully got rachel to lend me her's. left for Batu Pahat at 8am and reached there in time for lucnh cos there was a major jam at tuas. after lunch was the ice breakers where we did station games. rounded it up with abit of free time before dinner. after that was singing and the first msg from David Macloed. interesting subjects. but i was so tired during the first two msgs that i was dozing off here and there. ended the day with supper and dorm d.

10th June:
woke up at 7:30am yes, yes i din go for morning exercise. my body clock was super messed up before the camp, so getting the day started at 7+ was a wee bit hard. anw, quick QT and then went for breakfast. and for the next few days it would be singing and the msgs with BS. My BS grp was/is super FUN! haha, enjoyed the daily dicussions, with hilarious results. and i was the only guy till thurs when bryan and lucius came to join me! after lunch was the games at this stadium with alooooot of mosquitoes la. anw, there was danish longball, captains ball and ultimate frisbee! and i got to get my hand on weihong's (church toh weihong, not sch's toh weihong) D40x! wahaha. i was snap happy! haha! back to the hotel for rest, dinner and the first workshop was by uncle Andrew Kwan, on ambitions. then was supper, dorm d and sleep.

11th June:
7:30am again, with the usual morning schedule and the 3rd msg. BS was still as fun. by now you would have realized that im doing alot of condensing, cos im super tired, but i felt like typing abit before i go to sleep. after lunch were the movie screenings on - the forth wise man, the source of love, facing the giants and the way home. din go forany of the movies cos i had to study or rather work on my IAD project which is only half done man. die! did work with danna, john mark, jon boon, tim-o and benben. haha i was quite productive, i guess. played badminton and frisbee with rachel and lydia for awhile before dinner and the second workshop on worship by uncle Kian Huat. went up to share points that the BS group and i discussed, but i was so darn nervous, ok maybe not so much but just the keowledege that you got 200 pairs of eyes looking at you freaked me out a little. the rest of the night, supper, dorm d and sleeeep.

12th June:
7:30 yet again, and now you would have just come to the conclusion that i never did got for one morning exercise. true! but i wanted to go on that day but guess what, it rained. so the usual morning stuff and the 4th msg. BS with the peeps when bryan and lucius came, whahaha, and lunch followed before i went to play soccer and frisbee and, yar thats it. probably swimming too. dinner and singing, before the last workshop by uncle Kuang Cheng on spiritual gifts. and yup you know what happens next. at that point i just began to realize how fast time passes when you're having fun. 4 days gone so fast.

13th June:
last full day of camp was here. oh gosh. and i remember it like it was just yesterday. eh wait, it was yesterday. anw, 7:30 for the last time. singing and prayer before the last camp msg. on the unity and our reconciliation with God. BS and lunch. Camper's Nite prep with the group which i guess in 3 hours, was very productive, and dinner followed. and camper's night came and went like a few minutes. after supper, this time was the camp reflection by the campers. and as it is customary for the last night for youths to stay up late and go crazy, we did just that. 11pm on - matt, linus, lucius, nat chia, amos, darius and i were on a one hour singing spree (which combined with the lack of sleep, gives you a running nose and a bad cough.) while others played frisbee.

14th June:
...past 12am, this almost drunk nutcase caused sortofa mass hysteria among us. so girls had to be escoted back to their dorms. watched the italy vs. romania match and the rest of the night was just plain crazy for jet, brandon, cedric, ly, clara, ben, john mark, seng hean, danna and mua. bidged and taiti-ed alot before it was only left with ly, danna, clara, ben and i. talked for awhile before going back to our dorms. they din sleep and neither did i. i watched 2 movies in the room and took a ten minute snooze before it was time to wake up. had breakfast with the guys and then it was time to go. camp had sadly ended and i slept on the way back to SG in a "rollercoaster" busride. home, i we had to do house work. and now im typing here.

i can't believe i actually typed it out in one sitting. oh well.

CAMP WAS A SPIRITUALLY, MENTALLY, PHYSICALLY GREAT CAMP!

see you guys tmr

ahhh...(the relaxed way, not the frustrated ahhh)

its 2:15 in the morning and i just finished doing the laundry. and i have no idea why i'm here when i'm that tired.

but i guess i do have to blog.

effectively, ytd went out with sis to do some shopping for slippers, i bought my havianas, while nat bought a new wallet and ripples slippers and i met zarina who was working at hula and co., haha small world, and for the first time in history she spent more in one day then me. anw, went to carls jr. for lunch. then made our way, nat to amk and i to depot. stayed there for awhile, but in that time i learnt smth abt family. after that went to meet the class peeps to go to liwen's house for her 21st birthday celebration. haha it was crazy la.

no.1 we were on a helium craze. got a video but im not gonna upload. haha
no.2 the food we had was great
no.3 ...

...when we left liwen's house, dear jamie went to take like 17-18 balloons to tie it to my back and the guys made sure i din take it out. gosh! it was the most embarrassing time sia. esp when we were at DG. walao, i got more eyes and attention then the president on National Day la. so many people were like looking and laughing la. then they guys pretend not to know me. sian. haha, then these two cute little girls saw me with the balloons, and they were like " i want", so anw i gave them one whole bunch, haha, so ok la less embarrassing. but still, i'll never want that much attention again.



that many balloons.

and thus this concludes yesterday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIWEN! ((:
