For these past few days I realised that my thumbdrive has gone missing, so this morning I cleaned up my room. You see, for every occasion where disappearing is concerned, it has to be somewhere in the nook and cranny of the house. But I couldn't find it anyway after much cleaning. So just now my dad handed me this SingaporePost envelope since it was addressed to me. And inside was my lost thumbdrive! Whoever who found it and posted it to me must have done his good deed haha! Thankfully. Now I can upload photos I kope-d from Khalilah's camera (: Anyway today I went to Singapore Flyer with Faddy... Thanks KHAI for the tickets! (: The ugly side of Singapore (construction), and the city.

Went to have naan at al-azhar, then spend some time at the Marina Barrage. (:

How do I resist the curly-haired and the froggy-eyed Gu Jun Pyo? LMAO. ((((((((((((:

There's a place in your heart And I know that it is love And this place could be much Brighter than tomorrow And if you really try You'll find there's no need to cry In this place you'll feel There's no hurt or sorrow There are ways to get there If you care enough for the living Make a little space Make a better place... Heal the world Make it a better place For you and for me And the entire human race There are people dying If you care enough For the living Make a better place For you and for me If you want to know why There's a love that cannot lie Love is strong It only cares for joyful giving If we try we shall see In this bliss we cannot feel Fear or dread We stop existing and start living Then it feels that always Love's enough for us growing So make a better world Make a better world... And the dream we were conceived in Will reveal a joyful face And the world we once believed in Will shine again in grace Then why do we keep strangling life Wound this...

I just got back from attending this talk by an Iranian woman, who apparently can speak Malay. My mom kept harping about the fact she could speak Malay (this was before I witnessed it myself). But when I really got to hear her and realise the immense use of vocabulary involved, I thought she's excellent although the bits of inputs of Persian accent. Thought the talk was pretty good. Really like how her partner preached about sins. Uh somewhere along the line of how small we derive pleasures from the sins and forever will the mark remain. Somewhere amidst the talk, I couldn't help noticing how beautiful these middle-eastern women are. A friend/acquiaintance expressed to me how stupid he thinks women wearing burqa are because it's unsuitable with such humidity and the hot weather. Like dude, look, if you think they're not showing off enough skin for you, I still think they're beautiful. Which is why I think they don't need much colours on them, just black. And to Q...

J’ai rencontré des amies de ma mère et ils m'ont donné beaucoup des questions sur mon voyage en France. Ils sont très très excités pour moi. C'est amusant! J'ai une amie, elle s'appelle Annisa et elle apprend la langue française aussi (et encore apprendre comme moi). J'ai pratique parler en français avec elle et alors, nous nous trouvons que la langue français est très jolie. Je pense que la langue française est plus belle que la langue anglaise. Bah oui! C'est dommage que je trouve comme ca. Alors, je suis décidé pour ajouter un entry en français parce que la langue française me manque! Aussi, je ne veux pas perdu mon l’apprentissage dans la langue. Donc, quelque fois, je dois écrire en français ici! Pardon à mes amies qui ne comprennent pas moi maintenant. Mais, je voudrais continuer d’écrire ici. Donc, je veux demande ma mère pour acheter une chaîne 'le monde' (from the SCV). Je veux voir la télé pour mon progrès dans la langue. C’est mieux pour moi p...

Listening to Mariah Carey's old songs like Forever, One Sweet Day (with Boys II Men), Always Be My Baby, When I Saw You etc feels really good. I really like her Daydream album. I reckon I should purchase my 832938290th earpiece after the previous disappearance of my samsung earpiece. That way I won't stone in long bus rides, which really rots the brain just thinking about nothing. Better to get groovin' to some music. Last night I laid on the crazy spinning saucer that can be found in various playgrounds at bb with eva & ais and we were staring out into the nightsky. We delved into a random conversation concerning the stars and I wondered out loud if stars can actually move. Just when I uttered those last few words, a star jumped from its initial position to another for what seemed like 2 seconds. And it wasn't just me, the three of us saw that! How could three pairs of eyes be seeing things? So I take it as an answer from above (: Oh, and while I had nothing to do ...

Right from the start when I just came back from France, I've already had my mind set for a part-time job so I can do some savings and earn some money after spent bombs there. And hell, I'm so not doing anything about it now. It sucks being me. Like all I did for the past week till now is sleeping till midday, and going out and well, sleep and back to the same cycle all over again. Sheesh! Am gonna head down to the nearest job agency from home later and see if there's any jobs for me. Ah, it's 5:30 am now. I woke up from a slight nightmare I think and stomach is grumbling now. Left toe cut I had still stings because I accidentally grazed my left foot while I was cycling across the narrow flyover towards the Changi village. Why am I so injury prone? And I've become so desensitized to it. Anyway, cycling + dinner with the pangarap friends were lovely. Halfway through cycling, we played volleyball and I've missed it so much! Ok am gonna collect my powershot tomorrow...

This piece is awesome. I can listen to it like 5 times today (:

20 years I've been living. Yesterday was one of the few times when I was able to justify my existence. That I live not just because. But I am here for a reason. Life is a roller coaster ride. There were times when I wonder about how perfect the lives of others can be. Perfect happy family. Successful. Able to earn more than just to make ends meet. To love and be loved in return. World filled with love, wealth, good heath. Unflawed. Before I stupidly lead myself into such a delusional belief of the lives of others and choosing to believe how mine pales in total comparison, I thought about how meanings would be lost if everyone had acquired every single thing mentioned above. Then why live anymore? Better to rest in peace with everything you've achieved, particularly happiness. And until we return to Him, dying in sheer happiness and peace; that's what we all should aim for. Now I see that life is perpetual with challenges, and it's up to us to face up to all of them. If ...

Come What May from Moulin Rouge. I like this song. It particularly captures the entire essence of love drowned in the underground life of actors and actresses. And of musicals. Of lyrics. Of plays. Of cancans. This song has an element of passion and this longing.. Anyway, mom and I watched Perfume: The Story of a Murderer on StarMovies just now. Was really good like 3/4 through the movie till we realised it was pretty brutal when he started killing women to capture every scent he loves. I reckon the book it was adapted from would be excellent. Movie was good through considering I was pretty glued to the screen for that 2.5 hours. Go watch it if you want (: Khai & I are going to chase for our own peace of mind; at WestCoast Park tonight. Bwaha! Talk about being westie.

It's totally way past my sleepy time. So that's great. Been looking through pictures of St. Mathieu. So so gorgeous. From where I am, seated behind this laptop screen and just looking at pictures of the Atlantic Ocean, of the lighthouse and of myself being there, of the greatest things; it makes me feel so small. In a wondrous, amazing way, I feel small at such God's creation of beauty and nature. I am still mesmerized and awed. Even a single step there isn't enough to take it all in, how less would it be through pictures? But it's still breathtaking. Yet, that's just only one place out of billions of places that exist in the world.

Bonjour toute le monde! I'm moving for the second time. Geez. Think my mom is reading my lj, not that there's anything I'd wanna conceal from her. Just that I enjoy a wee bit of personal space and perhaps privacy. But yeah, probably more deeper stuffs here and random stuffs in peeping-in. Besides, I miss the simplicity of blogger. And why linger? I'm inspired by The Cranberries, as simple as that. Not that I had any close associations to this sad, dark song whatsoever. Just like the lyrics. "But you're always really near I just wanna be with you But I'm in so deep, You know I'm sucha fool for you? You got me wrapped around your finger. Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, Do you have to, Do you have to let it linger?" Anyway new space equates to renewed passion for writing. Aller!
