christian? har. my dad puts u to shame.

-I will follow Him
Follow Him wherever He may go,
And near Him, I always will be
For nothing can keep me away,
He is my destiny.

I will follow Him,
Ever since He touched my heart I knew,
There isn't an ocean too deep,
A mountain so high it can keep,
Keep me away, away from His love.

I love Him, I love Him, I love Him,
And where He goes,
I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow.
he'll always be my true love, my true love, my true love
from now until forever, forever, forever

I will follow Him,
Follow Him wherever He may go,
There isn't an ocean too deep,
A mountain so high it can keep,
Keep me away, away from His love...

We will follow Him,
Follow Him wherever He may go,
There isn't an ocean too deep,
A mountain so high it can keep,
Keep us away, away from His love...

and to taobb, ew. u ARE disgusting...

poor lola.

when Paul penned the words "for when i am weak, then am i strong", he wasnt a blur old man without understanding nor was he a son of belial.

i testify, for when im weakest and most downcast, then is the strength of God manifested and behold, i am strong.


i thank God for sgbf this evening. u know the feeling u get when u enter the room and the whole event and activities are planned just for u? awesome right? thats i felt thro senset today. amen and amen.

some people are just so rude and have no social graces. and if frustration or anger is an excuse for such behaviour, fine, but i wont be entertaining u lor!

mrt so big cannot walk somewhere else ah? hai yo!

i realised something about myself, and that is that i often think about things and how they work. i wasnt fully fully aware, but yet somehow i could tell i always myself questions i dont hear people asking. perhaps they like me, ask themselves and noone else? haha could be. but in the more recent years, its brought to my cognizance how much wondering i do.

im very impressed when i travel on the mrt and look at the train being supported by such "thin" tracks having a pillar in an interval of like 20m. i just cant help wonder how its possible for this big ass train to support itself on those tracks. and honestly, u dont see the wheel turning thingy on mrts, so just how do their wheels actually move? wheel so small and train so heavy... can turn meh?

and i like thinking everytime i look at a building or platform, im going to be up there in just a while. how isit possible that that 1 or 2 feet of concrete can hold me my entire room with all my junk and with all the people when its crowded and with all my jumping around when im high.

i think how such a small device that barely sits on my palm can get me so much information and even allow me to talk to people miles away.

how little cables and wires transmit data and songs and music and sooo many things to and fro.


i think about many other funny stuff. i guess people reading this will think im silly or simply nothing better to think upon. hm. well i agree, but it cant stop me from wondering. i like learning things relevant to life and things around me. i like learning things in class and go "ohhh... so thats why..... so cool!". but yet whenever i do that my friends around me give that look.. haha "weirdo"...

hahha but i dont bother la. i know im not bright anyway and thats why im easily impressed. but hey, at least i have a chance to be impressed! (:

perhaps thats why physics has inevitable proved itself as my favourite subject cause it has allowed me the most "thats why" experiences... i like it very much.

i like barker many many.. can i go back?


haha

and so does everyone else cause the burnings around us are just inevitable for anyone not to be victim to the myriad of toxic waste.

and behold, my heart grieves greatly at the recalcitrance of my ever rebellious nose in response to my command to halt! it doesnt ever seem to get tired of running... sigh.

i am quite impressed by what a simple random bassline can do to me.

little structure as it seems with little sense as it feels, but yet... boom boom boom boom is nice sound when u need clear mind. i would really like to give the double bass a go!

either that or i start small with norm norms bassy. but its kinda different i guess... maybe im just bias for jazz afterall! hahaha

and just about what, 1 year ago? or alittle little more, i taught kartik how to play basic basic chords and basic basic strum nonsense, roughly my tips on grabbing the fret board and not just pressing it... and now he just launched a youtube video and he's GOOD.

some cool spanish finger style flicking with awesome tapping skills, practically rollin on the guitar now.

whereas, right now im still stuck on the basics and not about to improve much (anytime soon). i guess i never thought or would have expected him to improve so much so fast, but he did. congrats dude (:




and yes, i agree, jc life... kinda sucks. hahaha!

roll on, u'll be some awesome guitar pro soon enough!

has truly earned my respect. for the first time ever, i dare say i look up to him, as someone im willing to become. of course not in all aspects, but yet the values and morals he possess were never displayed under such light to me before.

and i agree with mama... my dad is a kind man. a bit hot tempered and hastey, but very kind and considerate. and, i think he's a very smart man too. smart and bright, just no education.


the things he gained from tv, the news, the army, all these has come to such good use in his character. i hear the way he conduct his business and the way he treat his workers... wow. he may not be christian, he claims to be antichrist, but yet im thinking, how come he can live his life better than most of the christians i know? or at least the ones i have been exposed to, how come they dont have the pure and sincere thoughts my father possess.



and now it seems to me my dad doesnt need any gosple rallies at all. he alrdy knows all the facts. hmmm.





he shared with me an experience in the lorrypark last time, and all i gotta say is...
what a sad weasel. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAH!A

i love mocking such people (:

i find it amusing ironic that there are many teachers whom scold me and shout loud or very fiercely, but yet the teacher that im most erm... "afraid" or perhaps respect most is the one teacher who possesses a petite structure- my physics teacher.

but yet i think shes a nice lady and she is very helpful.





and.... marc tay earned another post!
all of a sudden tonight while i was doing stuff online and doing my econs chapter self-notes, marc tay started talking to me! wow... he said somethings to me that touched me very much.
he encouraged he massively.

for a act-tough barker boy, i think he has a soft and understanding side of him. and i respect that of him. i would sound gay, but hey... i gotta say "thats so sweet of him"......... HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!


tks dude (:








and i actually miss chia balls and hongkeeboy. even jonny and pip. pjc is very different from barker. not that i dont appreciate folks here, its just that i honestly had more fun with barker folks. perhaps its the influence? different social circle? i dont know. but as joel khoo said -

"stupid ass barker boys are just idiots.  but yet somehow i miss that..."

then that only makes jackfruits the hardass general of the floristic empire.

weighing 8<kgs, the premature progeny of the honourable family of jackfruits is just merely a small contribution to its bigger relatives. we chose the smallest of the fine groomed elites, fresh and newly exposed into the world of predators and left the others which filled our minds with contention and intimidation.


and trust me, if u think durians are tough to infiltrate... try their general and u'll be fully brought to cognisance, why the jackfruits possess their role in the floristic empire, whose regime has never faded since the creation of earth.

check out the clip! simple genesis wrap up in acapella. tell me, if this is not beautiful, what is?

"if bestowers of success be foolish, then training begats performance and performance begats fools. people usually fail to realise that success is not so much a destination, but rather a journey."

philosophical huh?



im usually very tickled by "inspirational" quotes and phrases, especially if they are presented on the platter with the intention of being ingested into something productive.

i label these "inspirational" quotes pretty much the same as gucci, prada and many other ridiculously exponentially priced items, where even tho quality does leave traces of evidence along the crime scene, prices are obviously over precedented as tried with the quality it so seemingly mask upon itself.

i feel that many such quotes are really just common sense but BECAUSE someone rich, famous or supposedly ingenious with note worthy contributions or otherwise palace of wealth to "prove" himself successful said them, they are automatically priced up and requoted.

people trust the "brand" that the "quotes of wisedom" came from, and thus rapidly use and desperately try apply them.

"hey, whats yours? mine is the limitted edition ' Efficiency is doing things right; effectiveness is doing the right things. '- only from ' peter drucker ' original! cool ya? like, i sooo would have never gotten that from a dictionary!"


well sure there are quotes with refreshing insights that manages to ignite the inspirational and impressionable parts of the brain, but yet when people serve distasteful dishes and savour it, it far exceeds my range of comprehension. it simply brings me to a stage of rampage guffawing deep within me followed by a smirk hung gently upon the lips of my inner voice.






and i especially find amusement when people bank their everything on quotes, almost as if they were prophecies.






but still even those are awardable in contrast of those whom think they are always right... good thing this disease is a rarity among the list that plagues the mentally less competent (:

tho i have yet to reach even the half way mark of being able to say that i am competent in wielding the simple 6 stringer, i must say and confess that my 150 local born maestra have brought me much comfort at times i needed badly. not to mention the escape and confinement it provided me in the time i was bored or simply sianed.

ranging at 150, my hard wood local born is barely making it into the amature category amongst her other counterparts. but yet with such affordability follows great quality in terms abusal tolerance and a gentle moan that lifts my soul.

seasoned with lots of punishing strums, tight hugs, sweat and even dust, my dear had emerged what she is today. not the best, but mine. thats what matters to me (:


even in the recent days i am with much regret, guilty of neglecting my localborn maestra.  but yet whenever i have the time to give her a good spin off, i usually leave refreshed and pleasent.
yet she holds no grudge, but sits day by day and moment by moment on her head rest, longing for the next time i will award her my attention.

i am thankful for her loyal services thus far.

i thank God for a guitar.

well done black boy! tho u wont be in singapore at this time im posting this, u'll get to read it (u better!) when u reach home. haha i thought i shldnt wait till then cause i'll lose the inspiration or simply get too lazy!

thanks to all the folks who helped me out by filling the survey for my PW group!

perhaps small as it is, but of a certainty, little efforts have touched me and definitely helped me in more than just the emtional aspect. basic courtesy compels me to express my appreciation to all who have done the survey while common understanding has allowed me to relate to those whom helped me limited to my morales.


but for both groups, i tk God for them!










those who have not filled up the survey but wish to help me, here it is!

http://www.esurveyspro.com/Survey.aspx?id=cbfb18fa-b66b-4ea8-bd1b-d1af5d6b63bc

this is a short survey, probably about <2mins to complete.
 
its done up by my group mate btw.
our group is doing on the project of "conservation of water puppetry", of which the title suggests, water puppetry is the performance of puppets on the water. it originated from vietnam, with a humble begining of displaying the lives of farmers in the past.
however, in the contempory society of today, both interests in viewing it and being part of the performing cast is declining. the course of our PW is to study it, collect public response and then propose measures we may implement to conserve it.

check out a clip from youtube if u wish to get a glimps of our course of conservation.







and there u have it! an advertisement on my blog! hahaha!

THANK YOU!

my father asked me yester all of a sudden whether i would like to have a try to learn and operate the crane of Mr Diesel diner upsized.

and rmb my growing interest in the family of diesel diner? and so i would of course love to get to know the upsize's... also it would give me a chance to talk to him and listen to him, so i consented quite readily.

AND, IT WAS AWESOME.

the family servant compared to his relatives is seriously... erm, minute.
the cockpit of Mr upsized is super cool, even without the aircon. to put it to a relative context, its kinda like sitting in the mother ship. the fellow is high up and big big screen is front of u, allowing u the chance to spy the surroundings much better.

pa gave me a slight intro on the mechanics and theory of the lorry and lifting and driving and then, we got down to the crane. and......... i found out something i never knew before - the crane has a remote control! HAHA like honestly, i NEVER KNEW.


pa tried out the crane first and demo to me. he showed me using the newest upsized, so he himself never even touched it yet. he let the workers tame the upsized while he watched. and so yesterday was his turn to mount the upsized. after a few flicks and flops and checking her out, pa passed me the control.

to me, it really felt like a cool toy.. just MUCH bigger and VERY expensive. but hey, it was really fun! esp when u imagine having to lift some 5tons of the ground and loading it on the back of the loyal upsized. just that it'll so be alot more dangerous....





overall, i really find it fun and quite cool playing with mr upsized and maybe... just maybe i'll be working more with them in the future? hahaha
