First, I wanna say this "Logitech sucks!" yet another mouse breaks down within a year since it was purchased... I'm starting to hate Logitech. first it was the trackball, then the wireless mouse... Now even a normal mouse spoils less than 12 months since it was bought... Grr... I'm using my thumb-sized trackball(Not a Logitech product) now... Don't think i'll get a new mouse until I get my first pay from NS, which would be quite soon.

Yeah... April's coming... means I'm going to have to serve National Service soon. Bummer...

Oh yeah... i kinda left a few slices of apple in front of my fan and forgot about them till 2 hours later... Gosh... Oxidation is indeed a scary thing. What a waste of apples too... that was the last Fuji apple in the fridge... Oh well... I guess I just have to go buy somemore tomorrow.

Did I mention that I stoned a whole weekend away... Yeah... That's right. Some people are just too thick in the head to get clues... either that or they're deliberately acting this way... Fine... Whatever. I have grown rather uninterested of late. It's just too much effort, if you get my drift. Maybe I won't bother about it anymore, maybe I won't bother you anymore.

Cryptic lines... Don't you just love em? I hope no one figures it out anyways.

And the biggest decision that needs to be made this week... To cut my hair or not to cut my hair... I have a pproximately 3 weeks left... Should I Go get one more cut before it;''s all shaved off or should I leave it as it is? Though choice... I wanna try one last hairstyle, but then again... I feel I should save the money. Maybe I'll let fate decide. If wednesday comes without me speniding more than $20, then maybe I'll cut it...

Anyways, I guess I'll be signing off here today~ Hipe everyone has a nice day~ See you guys around!

It's been raining almost everyday for the past week. Dark skies treaten the dry earth, as the heavens wait to cry out loud. As the water falls, like time has stopped, all seems so peaceful and slow. The soft rythmn of the rain like the heartbeat of the lands it finds, so soft and frail.

The whole world takes on new shades of colors, greys, whites, yellows, and oranges, like an ever-changing piece of art. Not just the earth that stirs, but everywhere, new forms emerge. In the wind, the tree comes to life, the leaves play their rustling song. The drains, the move, coursing with their new found blood. Buildings they hide, behind sheet s of rain, and tease one's eyes as they flit in and out of view. And for once, the busy city sleeps.

Windows are closed, the streets are clear, as people watch the water sliding down the glass of their shelters, in their own world, looking out at nature's world. They do not want to get themselves wet, no. And so they shun away for as long as the skies still weep.

But soon, it all clears up. The clouds have cleansed themselves and the last teardrops have fallen from their grey incarnations. Slowly, life returns to the city as the people slowly stir. One after the other, they head out of their caves, and seek to continue their constant shuffle.

No one notices it. None do.

For the the drops of crystal on the grass hides a vibrant green and amongst the green, nature shows her wonderous play. The earthworms peek out of the dirt to witness the new shade of green the grass has taken, while the frog sit nearby, feeling the cool windy breeze. On this breeze, the birds fly again, glad to spread their wings and shke of the dmapness in their feathers.

As they slowly fly through the sky, a little boys looks up, and he smiles. He wonders in amazement as he watches the rainbow arching across the fields. It does not matter that he was drenched, for he knew one thing, "It's so beautiful!"


It's true, so many of us lead busy lives that we seldom have the time to slow down and take a closer look at nature. So much so that we fail to realize how beautiful the world is. Maybe next time when it rains, you should stop thinking about how many of your plans have been messed up or how wet you are going to get. Stop for a momnet and notice that many wonderful changes are happening around you. Raining days are actually very nice too, if only, we could njot look at it grudgingly.

Well, I guess that's about it for today~ Hope everyone has a nice day~ See you around!

Well, we wanted to buy the tix for the Observatory(A local band) concert yesterday, only to realize that there were only 2 more tix left! Gah... So seng and I decided to let Houfu and Marilyn have the tix... Gah... Bummer. I hope we can get the team jerseys soon. We already ordered it! yeah!

I can't believe I bought an original PS2 game... NBA live 2004... for $59.90! Ah!! But it's much cheaper than the $80 plus per title in the past.

And somehow... Kathleen has now decided to study engineering... Same course as me... *shrugs shoulder* Well, on the bright side, we still have about a week till the 1st of April which is the deadline for the application to talk it out. She is feeling quite vexed about her future... Ah well... That's life.

Gonna play NBA live again~ haha! I just ate half a watermelon! Ah... I feel extremely bloated now. That watermelon was supposed to last till thursday... but I already finished half... =p

I feel a little bad...

Well, hope you guys have a nice day~ see you around!

First, this has nothing to do with the movie(Robin Williams one. Quite a nice movie, I would recommend the DVD), but it's more of what the future holds.

Spent most of the past 2 days discussing plans for the fututre. Or more exactly, helping Kathleen figure out what path to take. She was unsure if she should take medicine in Ireland, or go to Australia to study Aeronautics.

After talking at length, I guess she came to her conclusion, which was to apply for the medicine course in Ireland. Well, hopefully she will be accepted into the University. As she said, it's not what she ultimately wants in life. She wants to work with kids, maybe a pedaetrician, or even open a child care center.(her love for children is simply astounding!) But I guess, many times, we have to take a path that we do not like. Like so many paths I've taken, but then it is our responsiblity to accept that present, and not begrudge the past. It is easy to blame the past, but we often fail to realize that we have the ability to change the present.

Well, this afternoon, just as I came back forom practice, and was cooking lunch, I heard my mobile phone's sms tone. Well... I was expecting an M1 service mail at that strange hour(hardly receive msg around lunch) so I decided to check it after I finished with the kitchen.

Well, it was Kathleen, and she had decided to revoke her previous 2 choices and instead, opt for accountancy. Well, that's a good choice too, and on the bright side, she'll be staying in Singapore, at least for the duration of the accountancy course.

Well, I'd like to say "You go girl!" Though you think yours is a decision that no one supports, you'll know that at least, you have my support. So don't stress yourself over your family's comments. The important thing is being sure of your choice, and not trying to resent it. =)

As for myself... Well, talked to ehr about my plans for the future too... Which I've come to realized that I have a heck lot of dreams.

When she asked "What do you plan to do?"

My answer was a list. "Game design, work with a formula one team, design cars, design planes, design clothes, design advertisements, draw comics, become an artist, become a social worker, becaome a digital designer, become an actor(stage), become an author... and the list goes on"

My god... hahaha. Seems like Gavin is interested in almost everything around him... So many things to do, so many things to learn, but just one life to spend. And now, I'm looking forward to upgrading my PES states for NS so that I'd be able to qualify for OCS(officer Cadet school) in the army. I'm like, "I'mg going NS, so might as well learn stuff I will never learn outside National Srvice."

Hahaha... The over zealous and ambitious side of me strikes yet again. Well, when all's said and done, it'll all depend on which course I get to in NUS also. Which reminds me... gotta rememebr to get the NUS prospectus from Kath.

Well, I think I'm going to stop here for today. See you guys around, and hope everyone has a wonderful day~

Ah... Life has returned to normal, and today, i decided to spring clean the whole house, caus eno one has bothered to for weeks now... I mean, dust is everywhere and the marble looks so dull.
Yeah, so I took out that vaccuum cleaner and started doin up my room, sucking up all the dust, then I did the living room too. Later, I mopped the whole house, which took almost 3 hours.
But it was worth it~ The whole house looks so clean and shiny. Plus it smells so nice now!
Just one note... Need to buy longer handles for the brroms and mops... I have to crouch to use them properly... hahhaa... maybe I'm too tall...
