Here I am, at eight in the morning, trying to put in to words how I feel to no success. Its the start of a new semester and here I find myselt in this beat down old room of a computer lab, tapping down on the keyboard trying to find words.

I'm usually not one for profound words and that could be the reason why I find this such a daunting task.

Yeah I'm not too bright.

But since I have cut this blog of from the rest of the world. I guess its just me and a few of my brethren that actually take time to read what I have to say.

*15 minutes of staring blankly at the screen*

I still can't find the words. Here's something else.

Time...

The essence of which buildeth and teareth down. Which giveth and taketh away. The ticking of the clock will show a 24 hour day but alas does any know when it will end? The end of time? Could the end really come to something that is eternal, which ticks one and one long after the last human's heart has already stopped beating? With time comes answers to questions profound but along with those answers come unexplainable question. But in all, one thing is for sure, in time comes death and death will come in time.

Why is it that the only sure thing in a mortal man's life be something so dark?

Well I still can't find the words so I'll put it off till later.

Thoughts:

There will be times in life you wake up in the morning and you just thank God for that day. It doesn't happen a lot in my life but it still happens.

During this semester, undoubtedly one of my most trying semesters so far, I had to rush a 4 person assignment alone, I got news that someone I care for alot is leaving, a church leader passed on, and a whole lot of adjustments to be made in life.

But...

Its during those times I realize how God really does His work. If you ask for patience, he gives you a chance to be patient (God knows what the Blob put me through this year), You ask for courage, He gives you a chance to be courageous, You ask for love, He gives you a chance to love.

So, If you pray to be rich be ready to work, If you pray for A's get ready to study and so on.

To the post,

On

Exams, Kajang, Australia, Study Groups, Singledom, Work and Carlsberg.

Exams.

Its done and over with. The pre-results are out and I passed thank God! I really thought the Blob had done me in for one of my subjects. Its been a really tough year, not for only me but the rest of my hardworking classmates. The actually results will be aout later this month or early next month.

Of course with the end of the vile examinations come the hearty celebrations. And we did it at...

Kajang.

The land flowing with satay and kuah kacang. Well woke up early that day to fetch V and then met up with Li-Mei and Bra-Man. After dropping Li-Mei at Pudu Bus station, to Kajang we flew.
Bra drove at 160 km/h. Between that and the pumping Linkin Park Music in the background is a state of equilibrium. It really was a ride of a life time. God Knows a Proton can't push that limit without flying off the road.

Let me tell you that the best curry mee in this vicinity can be found in Kajang. Wonders happen when you just keep it simple. The taste was superb! And the company even better. When i thought it couldn't get any better, along came lunch Sweet and savory stewed pork! Heaven!

Well activities in between eating were Dota-ing (yes, I know I swore it off but...), some gaming on the PS2 and an extemely hilarious game of Lego Star Wars. J and Paul playing obviously. Then came Kajang satay. I have to say its over rated but nice non the less.

Australia

Sigh. This is one place that takes the people I I'm closest to away. My best friend is leaving for Australia soon if all goes well. There goes my last basketball kaki, (one already left). Haih. There is more but ... I'd rather not talk about it.

Study Groups

One would think that when you go to a study group you study. The four of us (J, Paul, V and me) have proved otherwise. Whoever who told you you need to study during a study group to pass your exams is lying! Well, don't take my advise literally okay. It only works on us. We had lots of ice creams , insults and coffee, not to mention, a particularly yellow stress ball. and we all passed!

Singledom

Well might as well make it official. I am no longer single. Yes, I now have a girlfriend. Its been going on for quite a while. Won't say any detail but just know I am a very happy and an extemely lucky man to have someone like her in my life.

Work

Ive been working my butt off, these past few weeks. Filling the very empty holiday season. Gathered quite a bit of money collected. Well I'm the set up crew for the CIBA vision fresh look roadshow around campuses and it pays a whopping 80 bucks and hour + free coloured contacts. I look nice with gray. Plus its just doing the set up and packing so its a pretty good deal. Will be working a week into the opening of classes.

Carlsberg

The one dog wrecking crew. And also my new loyal companion. yeah, he's my new dog. A mixed blood like I am, This dog has to be the most cunning and mischivious dog I know. I'm so proud. Why Carlsberg? Well his coat of fur is golden with a stripe of white down the nose area. Kinda like a glass of beer no?

Well thats basicly my whole holiday and its coming to a close shortly. Time to go back to studying.
