conquered!!!

weee~~~~~ although cannot really say tat i have conquered my fear..(i will one day.....*determined*..)..but, I've succeeded in conquering the skytrex extreme challenge without running off through the chicken exit!!! Wee!!!!! The chicken exit we went was not counted because it was not because we were chicken-ing out, we were just waiting for someone....

To be frank, the trail wasn't as high up as I've expected it to be, I really thought 22 meters were really high. but it was high enough to make me lose balance when i looked down la. So, as long as I don't look down, it was okay... To wrap it up, its was really fun and exciting, n it really test one's patience and endurance. i think i have a little muscle now..wahaha...cheh~~
....okie la...time to see photos...

arriving early at bukit cahaya...gave us time to lose the tension..

  • BE BOLD TO TAKE THE FIRST STEP....
  • NEVER LOOK DOWN..
  • PRAYER TO GOD BEATS WEATHER FORECAST...
  • WATER IS PRECIOUS!!!!
  • LAST BUT NOT LEAST...if you chicken-out, remember to chicken back in!!!!! ^^

waste of time.....

this sem is a waste of time. I can't say I learnt nothing at all in these two months, but what I've learned only occupies maybe 1/8 of these 2 months. Meaning, wait....let me calculate, 2 months = 8 weeks, minus last week holiday, I've wasted 6 weeks of time lingering in college doing nothing. Like now, waiting for time to pass cause 6.30pm only got practice. BORING~~ I've watched almost every trailer online.....and log in to facebook for the zillionth time. ...maybe i'm exaggerating a bit bit.......

i feel like cycling right now, i wanna go hiking........i wanna swim.......i miss football....i wanna go outdoor.......i wanna be physically exhausted so that when I lie on my bed I can fall asleep within seconds... hopefully this saturday extreme challenge will be fun, and hopefully i wouldn't need to use any of the chicken exit.

lalalalala....20 more minutes to go....what more can i do??

ps : i'm wondering....if u remember the song?

I believe

I believe for every drop of rain that falls,
A flower grows,
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night,
A candle glows.
I believe for everyone who goes astray,
Someone will come to show the way.
I believe,
I believe.

I believe above the storm the smallest prayer,
Will still be heard.
I believe that someone in the great somewhere,
Hears every word.
Every time I hear a new born baby cry,
Or touch a leaf or see the sky.
Then I know why,
I believe.

Every time I hear a new born baby cry,
Or touch a leaf or see the sky.
Then I know why,
I believe.

staring up at the clouds is doing nothing,
hence its a good thing to do.

i say

its not because i can't but because i know i shouldn't
its not tat i don't want but only God knows the reason

peace....^_^

work out week

Yesterday's hiking was really refreshing.................





BUT................. today's Capoeira was just great!



First heard of it from a tvb drama, but thanks to our kind senior who is always so generous in sharing her knowledge , she stayed back to teach us a few basic moves of Capoeira. It was really fun, and of course, exhausting! I think this is even more tiring than hiking. As if the capoeira wasn't tiring enough, we had dance practice right after that. hehe..but it was all fun... short sem has its advantage afterall.

oh, for those who have no idea what Capoeira is, Capoeira is a combination of martial arts, music and dance, which was first created in Brazil. Its basic moves are quite easy to pick up and its a good exercise. That's what I think from the first lesson la although now my legs are full of blisters...sakit~~ but still, Its so much fun!!!! kawan-kawan, go learn go learn, then we can have jogo together gether .... ^^

another moment to come

after driving in circles, getting lost in the city, losing counts on the u-turns made and came back to square one with nothing achieved, I would say that this afternoon was one crazy horrible one.

nevertheless, what makes a day good without something bad.....

I was blog hopping and found a few really inspiring ones.. Am very much inspired by their way of writing, the way they put those words so direct yet indirect. How should I put this? its the way they wrote their blog that made people stop and think. ah....intelligent yet silly. It made thing much more interesting. admire**

for example,

And if the only reason you're still with them, is to make them pay for all they've done to you, the question remains:

Why are you still with them?

that's one...then I moved on to the other blog,


In this blog, the author mentioned something about her diary. That reminded me of mine. The same scenario. Years passed and one day when I was tidying my stuff, I found this old old diary of mine, hidden under a stack of books in a box deep inside my wardrobe. As I flipped the pages and read the entries, I laughed at my own silliness. It was indeed very embarrassing, and I do mean very. Nevertheless, all of those are part of who i am today. Despite my silly ways of destroying it as if I can remove it from my past, I clearly know that it wasn't possible. But now that I think of it, in some way, i do miss those moments.

The moments when i didn't care much and think too much on what not to do, and just have the courage to do anything.
The moments when i acted silly and made a fool out of myself infront of a crowd yet not realizing it until everything was said and done.
The moments when i had pure faith of believing that there is no such thing as impossible despite how thin the chances were.
The moments when i deceived myself with fantasies and made up stories and just enjoy my imaginations and live in the world of my own.
The moments when i just enjoy fighting for the things I love without bothering whether or not I'm getting it in the end.
The moments when i have the courage to speak my thoughts, to pour out everything without worrying about the consequences.
The moments when I just live today as if it was the day and not just a day.

Those were the moments. Its why I become what i became.

...another grandmother story another essay long post. There are more moments to come, there are always tomorrow.

offline messenger

Again and again friends are leaving abroad for studies and work.... I wonder how many posts I've uploaded on this topic already! Yesterday, Jeannie left for her internship and in 2 weeks time, Mei Xian..my beloved Mei xian is leaving too......argh....

but thanks to miss ting smart invention....(out of her boredom i guess), i couldn't be more grateful that 7 of us....get to communicate through emails..not the usual mail leh...I'm still over excited by this way of communicating...haha..maybe tons of people are out there doing this already, but I just enjoy it so much I can't help complimenting it here..haha

So, basically, what we do is.......one start the mail, typing anything she likes, and sent it to a list of friends (sort of like open a conversation in msn) then....when the others planned to reply, she click on "reply all" so that, each one will receive a copy....while the others check the mail, they just needed to check the latest one because the latest one consist everyone's reply...(its like collecting the conversation) and we're like asking tons of question (some sort of surveys) and absolutely enjoying the answer....we're definitely getting to know each other better...=)

Pros are, we don't have to be online at the same time to chat!! n its soooooo entertaining reading these mails after u gone through a rough day in college or at work....its like telling you......fear not!! no matter what happens, we'll still be the crazy bunch here supporting you! yea...so the mail now is growing longer and longer and longer...and maybe in the end we can compile it into a book.haha (of course....the contents will not be for the public!!!)
I miss you guys soooooooo much right now...
