Recently been to the movies and caught a show that somewhat resembled "The miracle" (I have not watched The Miracle anyway, but I guess it'll be alike assuming their sports inspiring storyline), Invictus. I've got good reviews for the show in terms of inspiration, however, if you're seeking action, romance, comedy; I'm sorry but you're in the wrong theather. Personally, I found the show extremely inspiring and I've found the show pretty touching in terms of watching people fight for their dreams and so on. That's why for once, I've decided to blog a little on the show after finding the poem so often quoted in the show. Enjoy~
INVICTUS
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

WeLcoMe 2 myY huMbLe bLog
Actually the truth is, even though I've told myself I will only update my blog when I change my skin, I've decided to drop in a post for fun~ Someone special told me that my blog should have lost all its readers due to its inconsistency in post frequency, so I've decided to work on my blog a bit on my free time and maybe you pretty people out there will be able to actually have a nicely frequently updated blog to view courtesy of me!
I'll no longer procrastinate on working on my blogskin (as soon as I'm done playing NBA2k10)!
PS: I feel so busy, yet so free... I wonder if its normal. btw, I wanted to say most prob there will be a mahjong gathering, if interested please put your name down. I'll later check back and get back to you... haha. What are the odds :P

Flying Shoes
Its been months, every thing's been normally kind and "ok-ish". Some ups some downs, reasonable amounts of thing good and bad when suddenly... I saw a bear having steak for lunch in my life...
Yes, its an all low, and somehow, it gets lower and lower. I don't even know where to go next. Just as I've been robbed of happiness, I lost myself next. The next thing happened I couldn't do anything anymore. I felt so frozen. My only outlet was shooting basketball alone at the courts which no longer had its past crowd. There are times when I would just go down and aimlessly shoot hoops, driving hard at rims to try to wear my mind out. Now, I'm nearly totally robbed of that privilege when my beloved basketball sneakers were swiped, literally, right from my door steps. I had to admit, someone is right about one thing, I do turn to my blog when things turn bad >.< serious, things haven't been going on really well for me...
*hai* I'm seeing a vision... numbers that I should buy, perhaps for tomorrow's 4D... that's the only bright side so far.
P.S thanks for leaving my socks and shoe bag behind

Teacher's Day Special
Actually I thought I did do a write up for teachers' day,but some how... it didn't exisit. Maybe I did it in my dream or something. To make up for it, I'll post a lame joke for you guys to figure:
"What kind of potato always says no?"
the answer will be posted soon enough~ meanwhile, you guys who cannot figure the answer can try asking your friends or relatives for help. After all, you've got unlimited use of your contacts for this purpose! Oh and... Happy belated teachers' day to all of you people out there, because I believe that everyone is a teacher, to everyone
^.^ enjoying my waste of blog space? Haven't had much inspirational thoughts recently.. while waiting, visit me on fB and watch videos I post here and there?

1st Day oF 7th Month
It's finally here! The day that no one anticipates and looks forward to. Maybe I should change it to no living should normally look forward to at least. Ghost hunters and people like them might actually be in favor of this season but that's not really the topic today.
Metaphors are fun:
On such an unearthly day, people our normally flock home early to avoid nags from the elder generation (a tradition that has questionable survivability over this modern age with its simply "ignorant" Z-generation), but a particular blur nerd happens to wonder off into the darkness of the night still in his search of himself. When the darkness was darkened deeper by the ironically white clouds shrouding the lone light desperately fighting the overwhelming darkness, "run home" seemed to be the only rational option. Fleeing to back to the doorsteps of a familar apartment located high up in the freshest airs, he rummaged through his belongings only to find a vital piece of his carefully orchestrated puzzle, "Night's End", missing. Not wanting to create a scene, he created a nest for himself with whatever he had and stared blankly at the modern device that could have ended his misery. "Damn, hot night," he spoke to himself as the nonexistent cool night air stood still. His gadget failed to respond to his futile attempt to get aid. For a moment, electricity seemed to have conquered the world and humans with their reliance of their children...
Moral of story: Don't forget to bring your key out and charge your handphone deh...

History...
Was browsing through my photos folder when I noticed a pretty old picture that I've used as an msn picture before a couple of years before. One of the pictures that I would have put into my blog if i actually had one then...
That used to be all I had to eat in the middle of the night, hence freshman survival kit as seen in the background (haha.... its just a good coincidence that the card that NTU provided dumb freshies with when we were tossed into campus life), until when my world known as Singapore introduced something called MacDelivery 24hrs! After that, I no longer had to depend on poor dry rations as such and could feast on healthy food if consumed in moderation as claimed by the big M. It was amazing how much healthier I got with nightly gorging of Mac Spicyand its predecessor, Mac Spicy Double! I have no idea where I'm actually going with this post, but I'm going to end it here~ Enjoy!
