Nothing is impossible for You
You hold my world in Your hands..

My life literally went on a roller coaster of emotions in the past 24 hours. Is it any wonder that I'm mentally worn out?

Then come along Ji Ian with the news that wilderness survival camp is this March. I'm really at loss. I want to go yet at the same time I'm reluctant too. I guess I really left everything behind in Calvary when I moved to SIB. The question is, was it for the better or worse?

On the other hand, I seriously need to hang out with God more often. And finish my work. Like now. Instead of analysing Bhatt's poems, I'm composing one of my own. Pfft~ what's wrong with me? Anyway, me posted it here for your reading pleasure since it's spontaneous much. Oh and it was inspired by a manga named 24 Colours - Hatsukoi no Palette. Ironic, much.

Okay, I'll shut off the internet and work on my analysis. Oh shoot! And the t-shirt designs for Rotaract Club. How did I ever get myself into this mess? *sighs*

-signs off-

I believe You're more than enough for me :)


Portraits

Two portraits hung by the wall,
separated by an inch of space.
Equal in size, different in subjects
existing in two yet as one..
I wonder, what does this say?

Each is a white canvas,
splattered with colours.
They weaved harmoniously,
phenomenally forming images..
I wonder, what do they mean?

The first is of a boy,
standing beneath a sakura tree.
Blossoms scattered around him
swathed in colours of the rainbow..
I wonder, is he that boy?

The second one is of a girl,
her hair whipped by the wind.
Gentle hues entwined her profile
yet her eyes remain bright amber..
I wonder, is she the one?

Sunlight caressed their figures,
casting an ephemeral glow.
I gazed at the strength in his back,
at the longing in her eyes..
And I wonder, what is their story?

Your friends can always turn to you in times of need. You see the world realistically. You don't have any illusions about what is or isn't going on. You are wise and thoughtful. You don't rush to judgement, and you think things through.

Because my dreams are bursting at the seams..

Was browsing through a quotes website when I stumbled upon this;



And for some reason I can't fathom, this quote stood out and grabbed my attention.

Nothing to worry about, college life is pretty fun. Sure, it does have its ups and downs but the perks make up for it. And no, college life is not as glamorous as it seems. It's high school sans the uniform, really. Did I mention that my class is all girls? So it really seems like I'm attending an all girls' school. Okay, we do hang out with the people (and boys) from the other classes after class in the library. We're not entirely deprived of the male species. Surprisingly, they are really nice. By nice, I mean gentlemanly. Ain't it sweet? :)

Just a preview of my workload in A-levels, I have 9 written analysis for Literature in English, two past year papers for Psychology, circular measure sums for Math and an inch-thick Economics reference book to read. Did I mention that all four subjects are being tested next week? x) C'est la vie d'université, but I'm not complaining. :)

Then there are other things too. Oh well, I'm looking forward to my brother's homecoming from Germany but not so for balik kampung this CNY. I wonder why.. =/ Right-o, need to get going and finish my work.


Optimism and faith is what I really need right now.

A special THANK YOU to mom, Grace, Faris, Stefira, Tian Jun, Carmen, Joey, Webby for the surprise party.

Also a BIG Thank you everyone for the surprises and cakes and wishes today. You people really do know how to make a girl feel awesome and loved. ^^

Each one of you really made January 18th my day in every way *glomps* :D

Your Birthday is Maroon

You are the brilliant type. You are studious, knowledgeable, and just plain old smart. You tend to be persuasive in all aspects of life. You enjoy a good intellectual debate. You don't have much regard for other people's feelings. You don't fight dirty, but you also don't back down. You can be incredibly patient and calm. You are an excellent listener and sounding board.

MUCH LOVE,
XOXO

On the 8th day of January..



I have a theory that a LOT of people were born in January, me included. Just so you know if you don't already know, my birthday is on the 18th! Plus, I'm turning 18 too. So make yourself busy and go buy me a present like now. :P HAHAHA.

You are "Let It Be"

You are philosophical, balanced, and wise. You try not to worry about things you can't change. You can let go and find peace in troubling times. You believe in controlling what's on the inside. You know that you can't create or predict the future. You just have to let it unfold. The answer will eventually come to you. All you have to do is wait.

I'm coming home to the place where I belong..

[Edit] Beware, it's one super long post. Thou have been forewarned. x)

Goodness it's been ages since I last blogged. My apologies neh. xD;; First off, lemme list down them January babies. :)




Well lotsa things happened while I was away. Didn't do much this week. Only thing I recall for the past three days was driving, Facebook, Twitter, a lot of manga reading (Skip Beat! :D) and sleeping in. Really, I practically start my morning in the afternoon these days. Tsk, need to retune my biological clock. College starts next week lehh~

Speaking of college, looks like I'm the lone ranger again. Except for my niece (who happens to be a year older -.-) and Deb, I don't know a single person who is going to Taylor's College Sri Hartamas. Yet. Even then, Deb, you don't seem to look forward to college. (=.=") New environment, new people, new hours, new subjects. Interesting much? Well for one thing, I do happen to like my subject combinations. Economics, Mathematics, English Literature & Psychology. :)

Hmm, most of them peeps are either in Help University College or Methodist College. Only Clement seems to be stuck in Sunway. Others are either whisked off to some ulu place for NS or working. Oh yes, WORKING. I wonder what's the rush? After university, we'll be joining the working world and like it or not, you can't pull out. It's literally a permanent status. A headstart? Working experience? It's unlikely that one lands a job in a field that you actually want to work in the future at this point of time. Waitressing much? Nahh, I rather teach at my dance school. Good pay, few hours and just kids. On second thought, that doesn't sound very appealing either.

Oh wait, I just remembered I'm supposed to recount subsequent events from my last post. Tee hee~

One. IAG camp was.. stimulating. So many old and new faces, it was a refreshing mix of coaches. Oh and I formed the Four Amigoes - Training Escapees consisting of me, Faris, Ellysha and Mark. The name should be self explanatory. xD My group this time round was really encouraging and I feel dem proud of them. Altogether it was an enriching experience. In this past one year, me really missed camp. ^^

Two. Photo excursion.. on December 21st which conincidentally happened to be Adam Izzy's birthday! :D You can view the photos under the album Artsy Excursions in my Facebook. Or just click here. ^^ I Oh yeah, I watched Princess and the Frog on the same day too. Man, I love that movie! One of the best ones Disney ever made. :D End product of the day; an album full of beautiful photos, really tanned skin, tired feet but well worth it. <3

Three. Christmas was a colourful affair. Spent the Eve partying at Webby's house. :) Had lotsa food, fizzy drinks, cats and dogs and just about everything in between. Oh and presents too! The rest of the weekend was spent at church, watching the Season of the Year musical. It was an awesome show. Feeling a little sad that I pulled out and missed all the fun. But there's always next year (I hope). :) After the show on Sunday, went for a late night movie @ MidValley's GSC. Watched Muallaf. Was a little reluctant at first but enjoyed it in the end. Now I know the beauty of Yasmin Ahmad's films. Would you believe I haven't watched Sepet even after all these years? Sad isn't it? And I really wanted to watch ALL her films. Sigh. Well, I've some movie vouchers for my birthday. Still wondering which movie to watch. Truly spoilt for choice. :P

Four. New Year's! Haha, was supposed to attend the watchnight service. Prior to that, was shopping in IKEA for furniture. Yeah, I'm moving house.. to the next condo. Gonna move this Saturday too. XD Ah now I remember! I also spent one whole night planning and arranging the furniture in the new house. Ahh, I'm so gonna love me new room! :D Oh where was I? Ah yes, IKEA. Didn't realise that there was a countdown at The Curve. Me and mom were puzzled by the large crowd of people until we remembered that it was New Year's Eve. Also bumped into Jerome with a bunch of girlfriends and his trusty camera. Drove back, had mamak food at Steven's Corner. Subsequently for the next three nights, me and mom hung out at Steven's Corner for supper. Macam mana nak lose weight nii? .__.

Five. Today~ :D Woke up at midday after some nightmare (again). Goodness, can't I wake up before 8am nowadays? After lunch, I went for a drive around the main roads of Setapak. Felt a tad adventurous and ventured to Taman Melawati which eventually led to a surprise visit to Atiqah Aisyah's there. Wanted to crash Clement's house afterwords but he wasn't home. How sad :( Anyway, I must let you know that I finally drove on the main roads of KL! 8D Dem proud wei. The fear is still there but I'm dealing with it bit by bit. I even drive all the way to Hartamas for ballet and back. This sounds silly but I felt a great sense of achievement when I reached home. I was all smiles as I sailed through the door. Mom even applauded me! HAHAHA! Hence today marked my so called maiden drive in KL. 8D

Six. Now. Got excited about my now-slightly-stellar-driving-skills and confidence, me decided to embark on another drive tomorrow. Messaged a bunch of friends. Mostly busy with classes. :( Oh well, I'll be pretty busy soon too. =/ Picking up Stef tomorrow then going to school to drop off some stuff. Even offered to fetch Chow, but that fella refused. Haiih, a good opportunity to explore Cheras terlepas. ThankyouverymuchKennyChowHooKeenwho'snotsexyatall. x( Oh yay, I get to drive to Latin class tomorrow evening too. Whee~

Gosh, it's getting late and I've to wake up early tomorrow for the drive. I promise I'll blog more often. xD;; OWH, before I forget - OWL CITY IS LOVE. Hence, a change of songs. :D

Toodles! :)

IT WAS UBER HOT WEI TODAY. Thank God for the invention of air conditioning. But then again, it's literally suicide to walk from Hang Tuah station to Pavilion at 3 in the afternoon when the heat is extreme.

Had fun @ Wong Kok with Ushie, Serene & Manwyn. Mann, I'm gonna miss times like this. I can't say I would miss school. School is fun because of the people (specifically the crazy Form 5's of 2009 :P) around. But oh well, I'm technically a high schooler until 31st December. Or so that's what my leaving certificate states. xD

I cut my hair today! :D


Before you murder me for chopping off the wavy locks, it's NOT PERMANENT. It's simply the result of blow drying the hair. So my waves will be back once I wash my hair. And also when I wake up tomorrow morning. Feels kinda weird to have straight hair after so many years of waves/curls. But it's a nice change - temporarily. Tee hee! :D

I'll be off for the next few days for IAG camp so don't worry if you don't see me either on Facebook, Twitter or here. I promise I'd come back with lotsa updates and funny stories to tell. Oh and an onslaught of photos too.

*hyper mode switched on*

CAMP'S TOMORROW! WHEEEEE~ :D

Labels: camp, hair, holidays, stuff

My table is a mess. My room is a mess. =/ I dare not take a photo of my in its messy state - it isn't a sight for the weak-hearted. :P


Well, to me it's a considerable improvement prior to it's previous state of disarray.

ANYWAYY.. the highlight of the day is PHOTOS. Zaman dahulu punya gambar I mean. I laughed (and sneezed a whole lot) myself silly while browsing through them. Ah memories~ :)

Okay, today's goal is to clear the ENTIRE room of mine. I foresee it's gonna take HOURS. So see you see me later. =)

Edit: No kidding, I finished at half past three in the morning ._.
