Past, Present, Future
Maybe a one last post before everything ends in here.
Time pass really fast, just looking back, I was still a playful student in a typical secondary school but with great bunch of friends. It was always about fun for us back then, if you asked us what's the value of time to us, I'd probably tell you it didn't mean a lot to me.
Well, another 3 years down the road and I'm a diploma holder now, this means that there are many doors opened to me now, further studies, work, and many more, not forgetting that there is the national service which will pass by quickly too.
While there are many of my friends that found their happiness, there are a handful of them who encountered problems which we will not know till we experienced it for ourselves. But I find it true from my friend who told me this before, "Time heals all wounds". Initially, I didn't believe in that line until much later in life. Man faced many obstacles in life and what don't break them, make them. And also, all good things come to an end someday, some people may see that day coming sooner than expected while the others get it later. We should make each day we spent on Earth count and fufiling to avoid any disppointment later.
Most of us live to set goals and achieve them , gaining life experiences along the way as well. I'm not an exception too, probably about a year back or two, I chanced upon a beautiful piture of an aurora borealis in Yellow Knife, Canada. It was a fantastic work of art from mother nature. Since then, I've had thoughts of traveling there to see it for myself, this mangificent sight that only happens around autumn and continues throughout the winter months. Goals allow us to have an aim in life, instead of lazing around wasting more of Earth's resources, even trying to save the Earth from more pollution is also an aim.
Quoting from Randy Pausch during his last lecture, this is so true for obstacles we faced when we try and try to accomplish something.
"The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough."
Lastly, "We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand."
-Randy Pausch

What's in the Thoughts
It's been a week of.... (you can fill in anything you want)
Basically while everyone has been working, meeting up etc, I am just thinking of the next move.
To fill up time, running and more running seems to be a good choice but only takes up 1 hour of life each time.
More to spare but none to spend it on.
10 more good years to go and resolutions waiting to be fufilled,
well what they are cannot be said,
for its only possible when efforts are made.
How long will it take for a day to pass, if one just lie flat and stare up above?

Dedication to BM0626
Firstly, we just ended our one and only chalet during our 2 years to companionship together. This may also mark the end of this critical stages of our lives. Therefore, I decided to come up with this post to thank my classmates for playing an important role in my life:
(In alphabetical order!)
Aishah: Though we have had minimal contact with each other, I find you a outgoing personal who are always similing and that smile makes you likeable. Being at the chalet a short while was good enough for me even though I did not have enough time to chat with you but I hope you did enjoy the company in the chalet.
Ashaari: You are one of the funniest person I've come across and your huge sense of responsibility is what I admired most about you. Being in the same project group as you shows me just that and I know I am still learning to be just that. You have a good relationships with everyone I know and that is another good point I want to learn from you. Its a pity you did not turn up for the chalet maybe due to work but make sure you are able to turn up next time!
Alfred: Yes, you may have a lot to say sometimes and most of them may seem as rubbish. But you can be of good company at times and of cause great eating pal besides jodie too. Your passion to share your experiences helps to bring discussions to a silent situation, and that is a great talking point sometimes. So thank you for taking time out to participate in this chalet as well!
Azfar: You are the calmest person I've seen in my life so far and its really great to be able to work with you in projects cause I know I can depend on you all the time. Personally, it will really be even more fun if you were able to take part in most of our activities in the past cause I find you are also a very sporty person, no matter what you can do, you will never fail to promise to and that is a good point that I have learnt from you.
Benedict: Even though we always "shoot" you with your idea and attitude, thank you nevertheless for being generous at times and able to accept some of our opnions of you. Despite the common hygiene thing, you are still a good friend to have as you are ready to help friends when they have problems, maybe in the technical aspects. The knowledge that you possessed in your area of interests really awe me as I learnt to be always curious in what you love, e.g. your passion for cars and mobile technology
Bing Song: The smartest, also the most on person who I see who can change 180 degrees from to go from work to play at his best. Everyone knows that you are good at study but I know that you also do carry out activities seriously. Though you are unable to stay throughout the chalet especially for the BBQ due to injury but I hope all turns out well for you. I salute you for making effort in attending the chalet and other acitivites we had.
Elaine: You are the most favoured person in class with your responsibility and attitude which I can say is the best I've seen and I know no one can deny this fact too. Although you always had plans after school, you will try not to miss our activities that we had. You may be unwilling to do some stuff at times but nevertheless, you still did your best to enjoy and follow the majority.
Emily: Hey! You rarely join us for activities but thank you for taking time out to attend the chalet and I hope you had enjoyed yourself in the short time span you had there with the catching up. Be sure that is not our last meet up as I know I will have to treat you guys in my Entre group to meals if we achieved our targets.
Firdaus: You are a great boyfriend from what I see you can do for a girl and the efforts you put in. This is also shown in your work responsibilty as seen in projects I have been in group with you. Its sad that you were unable to join us for the chalet but I do hope there is a next time. Your pride in everything you do is what I admire you most and wants to learn.
Haini: HAINI! Don't be so intimidated by things around you, stay strong as you have a great character and also responsiblity. Your friendly personality makes it fun to work with you and I hope that you will be more courageous when I see you next time ya.
Ice: You are one of the funniest person I've seen and to bully as well. You are also sporty and readily to take part in all the activities we had. Your experience in life makes me respect you all the more and its a good experience to listen to your stories and your views on certain issues. You make a good friend and it is fun do activities with you in it.
Jodie: You are like a Da Jie (Big Sis) with your tone of voice and character. Your outgoing character gives you lots of friends and your "yi qi" is what I admire you most for. Hope you had fun at the chalet as much as I did and do join us for any activities in the future!
Joey: The man-niest woman I've ever seen with your character. Another ever so sporty person to do activities with and it was fun have your company all the time. Your never-give-up spirit as seen in the night cycling shows that if you really put your heart into it, its never too difficult to complete what you want at all right?
Kagek: The class rep of the class and the one who organises most outings we had. You never fail to cheer us up when we are feeling down and always smiling to keep us cheerful. Your cheerfulness does help all of us to feel better after a tiring day. Keep your smile on and let more people benefit from it ya.
Leah: The only person I've known to love a cat without a mouth, yes its Hello Kitty. Don't be fooled by her innocent appearance, for she may look like a cat but behaves like a tigeress with her scratches! But she is a fun loving person and knows how to relax herself with her friends. Though we did not spend a lot of time as well, but hope you will join us too for the next outing we'll be having.
Ling Lee: You do know how to enjoy yourself after all although you seldom join us at all. In this chalet I came to know you better and your friendly attitude is what I enjoyed most, but its a pity you may not enjoy fully at the chalet due to some issues.
Sam: The first person I like to irritate as I will win usually if not for the help of the others. Your character is friendly yet your facial expression shows how you feel and enable us to know easily without asking much, for a wrong word may spark a war. Your limitless complaints may sound a lot to others but we always know they are just small easy-to-satisfied requests. Friendly attitude helps you to get company easily and I'm sure no one can deny that. Just need to slim down after the chalet ar!
Shi Yao: Your girlfriend and you certainly look compatible! Everyone changes and i guess most of us changed into a more sensible person. You have became a much more responsible person than before in my point of view. Another sporty person to hang out with and your generousity is also a plus point. See you around the corner!
Sze Yun: A very funny girl who always "chill" us with her jokes that sometimes make you want feel like "....." for the lame stuff she says. Singing whenever she can and feels like really brings up the atmosphere and makes things so enjoyable with her around. She is really outgoing and never fails to bring smiles to people around her!
Toni: The "tiger" from Finland, friendly guy that is seen as a shy person like me at first glance. However, you open up quickly and your experiences in travelling is exciting as well cause we never get to do what you did in Finland. A very sporty person as well and is enthusiatic in everything you are asked to do. Wish you all the best in your future and never forget to contact us when you want to travel to Singapore for a holiday ya! Anyway, we will meet up for at least 1 more outing!
Vanessa: You provide a good company for all with your funny expressions at others when in denial at things. A sporty person that can be seen from the games we played at the chalet and also try to offer help when we needed any.
Wayne: The funniest person I've seen in class and out of class. Your sportiness is also admired by many and friendly yet funny character brings smile to all you interact with. You may be stumbled by problems at times but you never let them bring you down, courageous yet cautious and that is what I'm still learning from you. Really happy to know a great friend like you!
Ye Leng: You play the supporting role to us as in supporting our idea in most things we do and sometimes taking a stand of your own. You are getting more confident from the projects responsibility given to you and you will go a long way in life with your frankness at times and confidence you shown. A friendly person who is easy to satisfied with things given to you enable you to interact easily with everyone else!
Yin Yee: Due to injuries, you were unable to spend as much time with us as before this semester. Your determination to get well and catch up with the rest of the class is amazing as you managed to do so in just a short time span. However, hope to see you around when we have another gathering ya!
Hope I never left out anyone!
It has really been great to know each and everyone of you and I will continue to add on to the description if I can for this is the initial feel each and everyone of you gave me.
For singles out there, don't worry, they always say there is someone out there for you if you believe in it. Can always contact me if you need company at all times but at chargeable rates!
For the attached, treasure the other half as they will be the one you will rely on for the rest of your life and friends are there to provide you courage, advice and company whenever you needed any!

everything i said remains true except for that message think you really didn't mean that night tried to salvage but now all's done got your meaning loud and clear
going to let sports occupy every inch of my mind
instead of you (though hoping for change of mind)
i saw you holding hands standing close to someone else
now i sit all alone wishing all my feelings was gone

one day to start, 4 hours to end
Never thought it would turn out this way, What's done can only be taken away, A moment of folly spoilt that quickly, A moment of foolish got it ugly.
Kisses one two,
Stayed like tattoo.
Short it may seem, Just like in dream.
Held on to phone,
Like never before. Hope that you'll call, When the night falls.
Tried to hold on,
Turns out so wrong. Saw you today, No words all day.
Messages that came, And away they went.
Had a small plan,
On the last day, To tell you again, What's in my brain.
If you ever see this,
It'll be us please.

There will always be a point when you finally felt that there is nothing much interesting to write on. For me that moment is here, nothing more to be written about. Its now back to the basic "I" What did I say, what did you do? How did I fall in love with you?
