A cinematic vision was projected,
It was the exuberant white night fantasy.
It is someone's calling?
An angel whispers my name,
but the message relayed sounds strangely familiar.
"Don't be fooled, you are what you are not and you are not what you are. This has always been the unique characteristic of you and do treasure your friends in the following months to come. It's almost time for you to move on with your life now, don't waste this crucial opportunity to ask for forgiveness my dear."
Soon after, I was affected emotionally.
Maybe I just felt really guilty.
I totally understood what the angel said,
but too bad I'm not yet dead.
But now, there's a fire in me.
A fire that burns it will be.
This fire is out of control,
being fueled by lead and petrol
And I will keep the class spirit high
Till it touch the sarced blue sky
And the fire will keep burning crystal clear,
For as long as I'm always here.
Keep the fire burning brother!
But please do stop irritating Heather.
Because is she also our dear friend.
If not now, I hope its eventually then.
And don't be a loser or a slacker.
It's not true for now or forever.
And it's almost time for me to go,
But I have something that you all should know.
Stay happy always you must,
I just dont want our photos to gather dust.
Come on, look at us!
At how lively we are as a class!
But it's really emotional for us to part this year,
and to reminisce what we have been through together.
I seriously can't bear to part with you all too,
And I just want to know how much I've changed you.
I hope I will always remember you all.
If not, I could always give you a short call.
And I hoped you have all changed for the better.
Especially between Edward and his nemesis Heather.

I think my life is uneventful, but that can't be
Whatever I think, it might not always be right,
and it might not always be wrong either.
It's always up to me. About how I think. My own mind, my pure self conciousness. Friends are there to offer you help. But only up to a certain extent will they be able to give support, as that's what most people think friends are for.
They willingly skip lessons with you, always get into trouble with you, and fail tests together with you. Friendship is one thing, but love is another. It's just so different. There's no point in being intimate in class, seriously. No one will ever want to see you touching and cuddling one another. Being in a loving relationship myself, I know what is expected from any couple, just behave yourselves would you? Yeah sure, I would choose not to bother, but I'm speaking on the behalf of all those innocent students who feel disgusted at such a sight.
On the other hand, I didn't realise how wonderful some people could turn out to be. You might think some people are just born with pure childishness, or without a sense of importance for anything. Nonetheless, we are always fooled by them, as that's what they want the general population to perceive them as, but they themselves aren't. They are smart enough to make a fool out of yourselves, thus I strongly urge you not to be one of those lot.
I bet they are willing to do the same, if you are more serious with them. It's a challenging world out there, even with your eyes wide open. What more if you are blind to the real personalities of your own friends? Maybe when morning comes, you don't want to know them anymore. All the things they had wanted you to know, have you found them out? Make your spirit higher than hope itself. Friends are not always tyrants, some are willing to be real friends if you are willing to as well.
Some of them can't even bear to leave us. They always had the pleasure of making us had a slight nose laugh or a really loud one. Well that was easy to say. I myself too, enjoy making people as happy as I am. As of late, I have been drifting further and further away from that elusive goal. Come on Ali, don't give up. I know you are stronger than you really think you are.

Feeling ecstastically nervous?
Too nervous I guess.
Too nervous I guess.
I wonder, how am I going to obtain my desired 'O' Levels results if I choose to continue with the following act of pure laziness?
Here I am seen trying to doze off to dreamland while resting under my table. No doubt this is only probable during Social Studies period.
Well, I'm restless most of the time and I just can't help it. Maybe I'm too charged up with activation energy and I need hydrogen gas to be passed over me to prevent the formation of crappy effervescence. If you put a lighted splint over me, I'd most probably 'pop' and be more crappy. Hence the following has been a very often occurence.
Heh, I should blog about my cooking choices next! In the meantime, I shall try to be less of a paparazzi as that's what Amos Nadan Mun En thinks I am! =)

Presenting to you the rare image of
I had successfully managed to catch them in action YET again! As I was totally uninvited to their social gathering, Timothy's first comment was "Hey you idiot".
Tim and Cheryl in bus sān yī,
K-I-S-S-I-N-G
4E's new couple they might be,
But school rule 6.15 is no intimacy! =)

With the sun hovering above the horizon, today was not only awe inspiring, but also very generally known to be an infamous sleeping spree day. Do I have the reasons to account for the previously mentioned statement? Do look at the following scene if clarification is considerably required.
Let us identify and acknowledge these culprits shall we. From anticlockwise order, Yi Chen, Syafiq and lastly Yu Sheng. The remaining one being Mahadir, seems to be doing something so enthusiatically. Maybe I should catch him sleeping the next time round.
He was sleeping and
the tension heightened
Oblivious to everything
and this happened.
and this happened.
Mr Kelvin as he is known by Mdm Halilah, never fails to provide 4E with a sense of humour that is unprecedented by the natural abilities of the average sane human being. Sometimes though, he behaves with such senility that it comes to the point to which I finally conclude that osteoporosis was the main reason to why he behaves in such an unruly manner most of the time.
Here he is seen engaging in a friendly conversation with Mr Tan Keng Lai.
In all, I had barely scraped the surface of the tip of the iceberg itself. There is obviously more to 4E than just the students themselves. Honestly speaking, I was never the same person again after being part of this 4Eccentric class.

Family Day was a bittersweet experience for me. Yes, I could say that I had greatly helped my team to overcome the great odds and to emerge as triumphant winners. But with one of my friends being the sole casualty of the race, I can't help but feel responsible for his overwhelming loss.
They thought it was me who pushed him down.
They thought it was me who brought the whole NCC Land down.
Nonetheless, although I was with near body contact with him, no slight shrug or push was given. Trust me, only both of us knew what really occurred during those last few dying meters. Being from Athletics, and the Captain myself, committing such an atrocious offence would be of a total disgrace to my reputation. Alas, whatever had happened would continue to linger on in my mind for quite some time.
Without much ado, here are the people that made the above medal a reality. In running order, they are :

Seeing so much youth in the team makes me extremely proud of how we have come to outshine the other CCAs that had almost every competitor being a Sec 4. Also not forgetting that we did had a celebration as well at Parkway KFC. In all, 3 February 2007 would be a proud day for us athletes to cherish. =)

Today is weird and excitingly, awesomely great. Now with pictures to illustrate my admiration for the world, my blog is set to become more engaging with the human race. Gone were the days of pure boredom in reading paragraphs after paragraphs of utter crap, which dosen't even meet the rising demand for crude oil. Alas, just stare in awe and be capativated by the ambiguous story that each photo holds in abyssal secrecy.
He used to top the class, but after failing miserably to do so again, this was the end product.
Yes it is true, he is Yaseen. His only sole purpose in doing this was possibly due to his disintergrating pencil box thus meaning he was forced into using the school value of ingenuity to overcome this problem. Other than that, his shoes are literally covered with holes.
Next, my near death encounter with an unknown form of intelligent life made me totally bewildered. Walking emotionlessly along Bedok Stadium one romantic night, I came across this rare scene.
3 adult cats lying down on the ground with the black one staring straight at me. Also, a form of simple common understanding between the 4 of us was obviously not functional and hence I left the scene giggling to myself at my futile attempt to communicate with these entities.
Finally, this momentous event which took place at the massively huge Bedok Lake last year has now been delightfully eradicated from my memory. Being the favourite to win, finishing third was quite an electrifying experience for me. Hence I was shocked.

Found this extremely touching story, do read it.
Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end. They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. Every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.
The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.
One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn't hear the band - he could see it. In his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words. Days and weeks passed.
One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away. As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window.The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the real world outside. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed.It faced a blank wall. The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window.
The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."
Epilogue:
There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations. Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled.If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can't buy."Today is a gift, that's why it is called the present."
