  • "When time is abundant there is so much that can be done.
    Alas when there's too much to be done, there is little time.
    Left with experience and unity through participation,
    what's left is nothing less than simple satisfaction.
    The Past we inherit the Present we create,
    The future's worth going when God guides the way "

    So many things had happened recently!
    And I've been so busy with sooo many things.
    From supposedly performing promotional showcases for Kbox at NTU,
    to doing Rag Dance, all the way to studying for my Jap term exam..
    There's even Matriculation, and module bidding and planning too.
    Basically, NUS life really does cover a huge load of time.
    Decided to stay in PGP too, and very soon,
    i'd probably be using my laptop in my very own place..

    But like everything else there are always the rewards.
    Guess the best thing about being in the Science Camp and Union Camp,
    is that i've made many new friends from many other faculties.
    Across the faculty, i've grown to understand the Student Union better,
    Made new friends (and pet friends) and realised that the community in NUS is huge.
    Science camp really gave me enriching and fulfilling experiences too..
    Grown closer to my OG friends, the pple who've made a difference to me.
    Haiz, i can go on and on, but the real reward is the friendships i've made.

    I lost track of what i've been doing so far,
    but very soon all that's going to change.
    Chances are I'll be in my own room in PGP,
    Doing tutorials, strumming my trusty Guitar and on my laptop most of the time.
    Wanted to bring the PS2 to S-video out to the lappie..
    but until i actually get my lappie, all that's just a thought. hehe..
    Alas, although i've made new friends, been kept busy and almost at NUS everyday,
    I've lost track with some of my closer and recent friends.
    Used to meet Kelly at least once a week for dinner, but now...
    I'm sure i'll try to arrange something soon but there are so many things to do.
    Then there's my church friends, Liya... gosh where's she?
    Everytime i go for 3rd service she goes for 2nd and vice versa.
    I've gotta make time for my other good pals too...
    With Freshman orientation week next week, and Rag practice,
    I doubt i'll have the time. But i do hope that i can finish up the things i've set out to do.

    They say a picture says a thousand words..
    So here's a depiction of what's been going on for moi.


    After the Union camp, a united !nSANE went for lunch... only to
    realise the other OGs did the same. haha... and after a tiring few days
    at KR hall, everyone treated themselves to a srumpcious meal and
    chilling drink!
    Well done OGLs.. and thanks NUSSU. hehe..

    Starlight movie credits.. our Science camp OG wassup-duper watched the
    Day after tomorrow at Fort Canning Park. It was a different experience!
    And it was a rather romantic and cosy place too. What a memory...

    Sheena's birthday surprise and party... went to K-box to celebrate and
    sing. hehe... It's been a long time since I've sung. And because of
    this I've found a new performance song i can sing to! "The Moment"
    kinda depicts me sometimes.. can pretty much relate. hehe.. That was
    our most recent Science OG outing!

    That's Jebsen. Someone i knew in my fac in JC, and someone I've learnt
    to know more about. He's quite a dude too. haha.. Last Sunday Jeb,
    Paul, Pam, Sarah and I went to Newton Circus area to play basketball at
    the Community Centre nearby. It was rather fun when we were playing
    amongst ourselves, that's until the atmosphere got tense as we were
    forced to compete against other groups in basketball. All in all,
    Pamela learnt a few things, and so did Sarah and later we went to have
    supper with Johan at newton circus. And soon after, we left Johan
    whilst he was supporting his friend's band, to head to coffee bean to
    chill and chat. That's where we got to know each other much better
    too.. dark secrets came to light and behold... the next pic depicts
    Pamela's undying craving for warm chocolate brownies!

    lol.. Pamela's my pissing buddy, hate-to-read-newspaper buddy,
    chocolate buddy, basketball buddy, and i think more buddy-ly things
    common between us. hehe.. Quite cool to know these gems. Always never
    regretted knowing them.

    Well aside from all these happenings,
    there had been some emotional conflict going around within me too.
    Stuff's been happening and quite expectedly too.
    Sometimes somethings are meant to happen a certain way ya?
    and it has to go in a certain direction before anything else can materialise.
    During excessive Rag practice I've gotten to know the pple involved better as well.
    Especially someone I've been wanting to know more about since....hehe
    But whatever it is, I'm thankful for certain events that had happened,
    for the benefit of everyone around me...

    I have a hunch that somethings are about to change.
    Maybe I'll become a committee person, or a nerd.
    Or maybe I'll start to actually miss my ferocious mum.
    Maybe all these things will make me a better person.
    Maybe I'll even fall in love again...
