i have pretty much given up hope on this page these days. it comes to a point where you just seem to realise that the more you say the more shit you land yourself into. so why bother right?owell life is such and the earth isn't gonna stop spinning for anyone so therefore life goes on. i have learnt much over the last couple of months.notice how everybody had a dream when we were small? Some would want to be a pilot when they grew up, others doctors and there where those who aspired to be lawyers. well for me it has always been to venture into the financial sector. and it helps that everytime i go to school these days, its right in the heart of the financial beat. its a really good feeling and i dunno how to quite describe it but i know that one day i might just be sitting on one of the floors of those tall skyscrapers.it also helps that im in an international school. the environment is really conducive and the people communicate on a whole different level. not to mention the unique relationship between the staff, teachers and students. this winning pedagogy will prove to be a success formula in the near future.you reflect on issues and then you realise the irony of it all. that humans can be such complex creatures. that really sometimes honesty isnt quite the best policy because it lets you down. but on the other hand, i choose to see the positives of this entire episode. i realised i should not have remained in that hole that i dropped into. it was actually an opportunity of awakening. a chance to make me realise that i can finally move on. and to greater heights that is.things are shaping up and the stage lights are set. september 2008. mark this month on your calendars ladies and gentleman, something spectacular is going to unfold.
its been a long long while since i last updated. some noteworthy points.this period is probably one of the more challenging moments i have encountered thus far. shall not go into further details. just hope and pray..my 2 years of torture is FINALLY coming to an end.exams are around the corner.my 21st birthday plans are semi grey because of the recent spate of events. sigh.life is going on for now, but who am i trying to bluff. it really isn't quite the same anymore.
CNY week was great! and no, it wasnt cause of the packets. instead, it was the great company over the few days of festivities. lots of poker action + a new poker location! and as all of us would agree, we found our poker comfort group. went down to zouk for fatman scoop but he irritated the hell out of us with his i-play-the-song-for-10-secs then give my nig** thrash talk. great supper company as well. hopefully the going picks up from here..
the lack of updates these days can be attributed to the fact that i kinda lost interest in this "activity"i've been receiving replies from UCAS lately. well lets just say things are not looking too good. i would still like to remain positive. afterall this was part of my new year resolution. 1 conditional + 3 more replies to go. come onn....for the records, this wed marks the stupid-est day ever in the freaking calendar year. well at least in my humble opinion. its really a damn zzz day. i dislike how people have this retard mentality in their head that vday is a day where you intentionally "surprise" your other half with a dinner+buy her flowers+buy her expensive present. i think everybody forgot that vday is essentially a day to share the love with people who truly matter. imagine just hanging out with friends over dinner, reminiscing the good ol' moments, laughing yourselves silly. i think that adds so much more value and meaning to that day.on a sidenote, CNY is just around the corner. i am not feeling it at all this time. the only thing that i am happy about is that i get two whole official days off work and zouk is actually putting mambo night on the eve. wow i hope its going to be a blast. i think as we grow older, the excitement really just dies off. i remember how when i was young, i would wish that everyday was CNY, just cause i would get red packets. now that im older, that kind of money doesnt really excite me anymore.work doesnt seem to be cutting me any slack either, even as i approach the impending end. people who think they are too smart for their own good really should just burn in hell. but well life goes on and i know i can pull through. just 2 more months and its no turning back from there.li : i dunno if that really came from you but lets talk about it in private. i don't feel comfortable disclosing too much info in public.
finally i am done with my UCAS application ordeal. now its time to cross my fingers, sit back and wait for news. hopefully its good.
on a sidenote, i realised i have only been playing poker for about 2 months and i am already immensely attracted to the game. hmmm.
ALOHA 2007!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! a new year deserves a new post. ushered in the new year by clubbing continuously from the last mambo of the year onwards. last mambo didnt turn out as planned but it was alright i guess. overall i am still satisfied. thursday was chuin+cliffords party at butter. friends all around so it was well spent. cant remember what i did on friday but we went to MoS on saturday. cliffords cousin got us all smashed on champagnes. zzz. the last day of 2006 was very messy. eventually i settled on going to butter. countdown with many familiar faces. hugs and handshakes all over. it was a great feeling just to be in the midst of all the company of people who truly matter to you. left shortly after midnight to join the nye party at expo. managed to catch summer rain while i was dancing right in the middle of the main podium! haha at least that made up for the stupid ECP jam on the way to expo. later in the night i got wind of some big fight at butter. wasn't the best of ways to start a new year but surely it satisfied the criteria of being a 'smashing' new year. hur. ended the night with supper at al ameen.thinking back, the incident actually brought out the best of the social circle. its good to see how people put aside their differences to unite for a common cause. at the end of the day, bad people will get bad karma. shall not go into details of what happened but lets just say life goes on.here's a shoutout to all my friends for making 2006 such a memorable year. i am sorry for all my shortcomings and i promise i will make a genuine effort to improve. finally here's one of my new year resolutions to share with everyone. hopefully this year will be better than the last! :)
the year is wraping up soon. well here's several thoughts.finally went down to vivocity. its quite a refreshing idea but wasn't as big as i expected it to be. festival walk in hong kong beats it hands down.its frustrating when people single handedly screw up all your plans. well technically its nobody's fault but the intentions were still there.hopefully the last week of parties will bring the year to end on a good note. i dare not put my expectations too high because i've been let down countless times already.ushered christmas in this year at zouk. they decorated the place with a "snowy" feel. quite an interesting concept with the balloons and styrofoam beads all over the floor. i pity the cleaners man. haha. at long last everybody is kinda "reunited" but this is going to be shortlived because most will be leaving in the first week of january. sigh.
