Time. Need... More... Time...

Never seem to have enough time to do anything nowadays. I know what they say about everybody having an equal amount of 24 hours a day but most people don't have the same amount of things they want to do.

My assignment have been coming in the twos and threes. Pass three up and in comes the next set of threes. Not to mention the amount of meetings I have to attend this week. I'll be lucky to have time for hanging out even.

Having a mild case of insomnia now. I can't sleep much. 3 in the morning and my brain is still on overdrive. No coffee, no tea, just me. Because of my classes I can't sleep in too. Bah...

With having not enough time comes sacrifices. Sleep, foosball (sorry guys), TV-time, Gaming time (*sob*SOB*), eating time (not too many of those tho), Yam cha time (sorry again guys) and all that jazz. No luxuries. Suffer Kelvin! Suffer! What doesn't kill you will make you suffer. You can quote me on that. But I'm stil hanging on. It hasn't been all that bad. To the nicer times of the pass week or so.

Youth Fei Lo Ship (Fellowship). Well your basic Youth fellowship until it ended of course. Our usual course of action would be to go for foosball but we didn't.

It started when Ee Leen made a sarcastic suggestion (you really won't be able to tell whether shes being sarcastic or not) to go to her place and litterally "Yam Cha" or drink tea. This was, of course a half hearted suggestion but all of us being in the extremely random state that we were in (You can ask Pei Yi, she'll vouch for me) we made it a reality.

At Ee Leen's place we had Naan, Tosai and chinese tea with the little tea cup (and yes I mean "LITTLE"). More laughs and random-ness ensued.

Owh well... back to college life. Heads up!

On a week I might want to forget.

I have a feeling this is one of those week which I would want to sleep thru and not wakeup till the next.

And its a Monday.

A bad incident happened yesterday (I won't go into details) and right after that I bumped my knee into something. That was a sunday. Today, the pain got worst. If only it ended there...

Knowing me? No such luck.

Monday morning. Class starts at 2. Decided to take the bus. Again, nothing goes my way. The vice calls me up and says I need to be in the campus grounds ASAP. So I took a cab, 4 hours before class starts. Thats 11 bucks down the drain.

My knee is killing me.

In a really hostile mood.

Plus I have to see the secretary from hell the whole of this week. I swear that girls has issues. My heart is in a very weak state. I might say something I would regret. God help me. Shoot! Another week to struggle with.

Really not looking forward to this.

Life is no longer as simple as it used to be.

I seem to be a little more stressed out every day and some of my uni-mates aren't helping. One or two of them acting like stuck up - Well you get the picture. And these are the people I have to work with for the rest of the year. People are entitled to their opinons.

High school. The carefree days. My high school life was just 2 things, Basketball and studying. Never have I felt any kind of stress those days. Now, the traffic jam causes stress, the food prices causes stress, the subject causes stress, the public transport causes stress and the people causes stress. Practically everything drives me up the wall. Huff.. Ok now that thats off my chest..... On to better things.

Beef Noodles! Hing Loong Noodle House! SS21! you have to eat there. The soup is so kaw(Rich)!
One of the best I've tasted so far, but then again, I've never tasted Seremban Beef Noodles. So when are we going down to seremban people?

On Rally 07, People, The new year and Goodbyes.

Surf's Up! Way to start of the new year with a bang. After the worst Christmas and New Year in my entire life, this is exactly what the doctor ordered. No photos up till now but I will link a few once i find some. I didn't take any myself. The best rally I've had the pleasure of being a part of so far. Just can't wait for next year. Ah, but that can wait. First things first, USHZ CAMP 07!

People. You'd figure after 3 or 4 years you'd know them but somehow that thought will give you a huge surprise. People are unpredictable. Someone you've had respect for might just pull something you'd never thought possible. People you thought had nothing in common with you are actually are the only ones that truly understand who you are and where you come from. People you grew up with might have a huge grudge on you. You'll never know. When it comes to people, you just have to allow the unexpected. You can't expect it but you can allow it.

The new year is here. So many changes. New people starting a new phase of life in college and university. New resposibilities for some and new start for others. Usually people write a long thank you list but me being the simple person I am will just thank everyone thats been part of my life so far, all 21 years of it, that way I won't leave anyone out. My new years resolution is to take more photos!

Ah, goodbyes. Parting is such sweet sorrow? I think not. Its bitter. but yet I have to say so many. Stanley leaves for Melbourne tomorrow. Ryan leaves soon too. Kim, Kian and Jin leaves to Melbourne in Feb. Some people even left before i could say goodbye, Sern, Vern and Aud are amongst some of them. Next year more people will be leaving. So much more. Bleh, such is life. I need to get a private plane.

On being a good son (or daughter).

Its hard, especially in an Asian context to be a good son. Period. Why? Too many reasons. I'll pick out a few main ones for you.

Parents in Asia still think what happened in their era is still relevant to what is happening in the lives of their children now. Why is it so hard for the older generation and the younger generation to communicate? Simple. The times have changed. Yes its true that we the younger ones should be nice and try to accommodate our elders but why sculpture ourselves to something out-dated? But we still do. Its culture.

Next is respect. Parents in Asia usually demand and not earn respect. They feel that bringing you into the world id cause for respect enough. But which baby will remember that? All the so called pain and suffering? It what you do in the present day that matters. Yes there are parents that has the admiration of all their children, I tip my hat to that chosen few, but most of the time the case is this, "I am your Mom/Dad. Respect me and do what I tell you to". Sound familiar?

Parental ego. Now this hurts. Let me speak from personal experience. My parents, namingly my Mom, never admits she's wrong, hardly says she’s sorry, and always thinks she's right (and often times, she is dead wrong). How would you expect a child to learn forgiveness? How is a parent to gain respect if this was the case? But yet we try to accept what we can as children. Obedience is a big word.

Just know this, blind obedience is destructive.

Amongst the three stars,

That shine so bright,

To each a prayer I say,

As each of them fade from sight,

To the first star I say,

I pray that she stays happy,

I pray you keep her safe,

As we go on our own way,

To the second star I say,

That you give her success,

That you give her ideas,

So the world she'd impress,

To the third star I say,

That you remind her always,

That My love for her runs deep,

Till the time again we meet,

She will stay my love.

There was once a boy, who knew nothing of the world. He was innocent and had a sense of what was right and what was wrong and he wanted to live right.

There was a long road before him. A wide long road called 'Life'. On this road he met a group of young men and very soon he had his first bunch of friends. They had thier laughs and companionship along the way but very soon the road called 'Life' provided a tall obstacle which the couldn't go around. The boy was asked by the young men to help hoist them up over the obstacle after which they would later pull him over. So the young boy did as he was told but the young men left him and continued on their way. He was introduced to treachery and he was saddened by it.

So he toiled and toiled and soon after the got pass the obstacle. So his journey continued. Along the way me met a soldier, a lawyer and a policeman. He was introduced to valor, justice and bravery but he also saw death, deceit and corruption and this saddened him.

Soon he turned to religous leaders. He was deeply saddened when all he was to discover in religion was violence, hypocracy and nothingness. He saw holy men partaking in unholy practices and he was disgusted.

At this point he was sick and tired of good for all he could see is evil within this world. He started to live for himself. He scratched, he stabbed, he did anything he could to reach the top and he did eventually.

Now he was old, he was rich, he was famous but he was not happy. One day as he was approached by a hooded figure and the road which he stood on disappeared and he saw flames. He knew his time was up. Be for his total decend into darkness he saw a small gate with a small sign leading to a small and narrow path. The sign read, "Everyone on the road you are currently on is doomed including yourself. Step this way before its too late". The boy who is now an elderly man laughed and laughed... as he DIED....
