-XROTHIA SENTOSA-

Ichi Ni San... Cheese!

Spent the day at Sentosa today..

Great, fine, sunny day...

A day where my voice sounded sexy to NuRuL...
(Yup, I'm sick again.. flu brought throat problems and cough...)

A day where I saw the boundless energy that kids below 12 years could unleased...

A day where I actually felt breathless walking along the nature trail to take snapshots of the whole event...

A day where I had curry for lunch despite my condition..
(Nothing else to eat mah... the rest all so ex!! =P)

And amazingly, I still got voice... just that its getting deeper.. hahah...

I'm deadbeat... yes I am... but still, to everyone part of this proj, GooD JoB done! And to Azi, U've done it! Continue to believe in urself... there's no limit to what U can do.. =)

To those who have no idea what I'm talking about... its a day spent with about 50 people from TP and 30 kids from 3 different orphanages... lotsa fun? Yup, no doubt about it! =)

-Library Level 3-

Here I am... in our library level 3... juz had my conveyancing paper about an hour ago. Paper was ok I guess... except everyone seem to have different answers for the completion account... *shRug*
Well, I'm keeping my fingers crossed... =) Must shift my concentration to the last mid-term test paper I'll be having tmr!

As I type this entry, I realised how long I've not use the computers in the library... I used to come here very often and use the computer till late evenings in the past semesters. Guess now that my computer at home is restored to function properly, I dun really have to come here as often as the past. But I must still come use the computers... the podium is actually screening Sarah Brightman's concert!!! Ah... one of my favourite singers! And I think its featuring some songs from the cd Eden... nice... =) The best part is, my computer is positioned such that I can type and watch the screen at the same time too.. hahahah...

Recently, I've read a couple of e-mails about the going-ons in tacs... As much as I feel for them, the news wasn't that shocking to me after all. Having face similar situation before during my secondary days, I've come to understand how the minds of conductors function. Placing myself in their shoes, I think I would have made the same decision as them as well. Hence, to all the tacs people who read my blog, I pray for strength for all of you to carry on. Its times like this that will make the group stronger and grow. At the same time, do not blame nor despair... hold onto hope and carry on!

Personally, though I'm not directly affected by the changes in tacs, it kinda reminded me how changes takes place all the time. I first joined tacs 3 years ago... however, due to my mom's objections, I became a dormant member shortly after the carolling session 3 years back. Since then, I've been an active member only during carolling periods.

Yet, over the years, I just can't help but feel that the society has changed... I no longer feel the warm it once had when I just joined in... perhaps its partly due to my own restrictions which disallow me to interact with them more.. But somehow, I just don't feel tacs as my 'other family' anymore... something that I used to feel when I first joined. With the exception of certain friendships that still remains, the rest just no longer exist. Still, I'm just penning my thoughts here... no offence to anyone in particular.

Ok, heading to work soon... more soon! =)

-A Little Difference-

A night for a little difference indeed... =) To all those who joined me for the BudaK PantaI performance last friday at YMCA, I'm glad to inform you that they managed to raise a total of $5,000/- for the tsunami aid! I hope that all of you enjoyed yourselves that night!

It was a night of lovely songs, as usual... ^.^
The speakers were a little loud...
The sound seemed a little out of balance...
But I've found out it is the first time BP are using those speakers...
Lotsa laughter as usual...
I think the 30 people that me and kiat brought along enjoyed themselves...
Had a great time talking to joe, gordon and mike...
Yup, it was a night to make a little difference alright!

-PiG-

Yup, think i'm literally a pig... i sleep alot and laze around alot... hahah...

Kinda feel guilty for taking cab again this morning... but i was really running late for jap class. Work yesterday was really quite taxing, i could really feel the energy slip out of me from the moment i stepped into the centre till i left the centre. It was like reliving the times where i sat on my own and handled 6 kids at the same time!

I juz help but think, that maybe working on tue and wed is a bad idea... Firstly, i start sch early on wed. Secondly, if work on tue is going to tire me out, and i still go to work on wed, i'll be dead-beat by thur! And thur is my longest day of the whole week! Its 9am-6pm and there's vOices @6pm till whatever time we finish... hmmm.... hmmm.... muz see how next wk goes... if its really bad, then i may drop my tue..

Then again, if i dun work often, i would have problem supporting my commitments and hp bills... on top of it, i may be joining a music sight-reading class soon and that itself cost $200 over a span of 20 lessons... hmmmmmm..... seriously, i tink its time to do some financial planning and make sure i save for the rainy day... =)

K... wanna nap for awhile before i head to work... ZzzZzzZzzzz
-tHe pOweR oF a tRiP-

Yeah... the power of a trip... trip of what you may ask? A power trip of course... hahaha...
It happened during conveyancing class. (Yup, its conveyancing again...) But this time, conveyancing wasn't confusing. It was frustrating...

Imagine the shock on most of our faces, esp those who sat around the computers in the inner circle in the comp labs when the screen in front of us suddenly blank out... juz when we were typing our letters and most of us did not save our work....

Yup, that's the power of a trip...

-DanieL's HouSe-

Kinda felt like a party spoiler for today... but i really din felt like playing games today. Maybe its the 'growing old' period. Games like taboo and monopoly are fine anyday but juz not active games. Guess i kinda have a 50 yr old lady living in a 20 plus yr old body? hahaha... I rem doing this quiz a long time ago which said that i have a mind of a 50 yr old. Guess its kinda true to a certain extend doesn't it? hahaha...

Daniel's house is lovely... I really like the open concept of his house. It really makes the house look so spacious! I would love my future house to look like his... the only difference would probably be the kitchen... I would need a kitchen with big working space and huge oven... hahhahaha....

I may not have participated in the games but I did enjoyed myself... had a great time catching up with pple i haven't seen in quite awhile.

Well, its back to studies... can't believe i'm having my mid-sem test in 2wks! *YiKeS*

-FiRsT DaY oF 2005-

I woke up at 2plus today.. sure sounds lazy of me to start the nEw yeaR at such a late timing right? But i was exhausted... its like how my biological clock is upside down from all those christmas gift making? I do hope that from today, i'll get back to normal resting hours and stop sleeping more than i shld!

Went to cheer Awi on for his performance yesterday at the power-studio near esplanade with desheng, tania, azi, alvin, xuan & kiat... marcus, yolander and darren joined us as well. He did a great performance as usual... i sure do look forward to his album which will be release in feb i believe... To those who love music, band music that is... do get his band's cd... his band name is RAFE ok.. =)

Its the first time i spend new year eve outside instead of at home... the first time i spend my new year eve with him. Can't really describe the feeling but i sure was happy.
Happy nEw YeaR to aLL!

I may have woke up late but still, the day was pretty well spent. I spent the last few hours doing door-gifts for TaCs gathering session tomorrow afternoon at Daniel's house. I certainly hope the door-gifts will be juz fine for them tomorrow cos I wasn't able to do 'research' for ideas of door-gift.

The impact of the tsunami is truly felt by the world... every image shown on the tv juz reminds me on how vunerable life can be... the pain may never be understood by us but I believe that all of our hearts go out to those who have suffered.

A sad ending to the year 2004... but may all beings continue to stay strong and live on...

Its the first day of the year... let this day be a brand new beginning to a wonderful year.
