a strange kinda feeling

blogger is back haha so is my posting page lol.......i went out and met my wife, titus for lunch today.......had quite alot of fun haha even though we jus met at carl's jr for lunch LOL.......i must say dat the carl's jr burger i ate was really quite good man.......the bacon slices were jus heavenly lol if i got money (or like wise if im short of money, i would go there to work part-time lol jus for the food, well i could work at subway as well, all for the food not so much for the pay hahaa) i would love to eat carl's jr more often lol until i have tried ALL the carl's jr burgers! ... but its jus a pity dat carl's jr burgers (and the meals) are so PRICEY!!! sian man.........if the meals and stuff at carl's jr are much cheaper, i think their business will be much much betta la (not saying their business isnt already good hahaa)...........and actually not to mention alot of ppl will be much fatter hurhur......

anyway i have a great time talking to titus today haha.......pity he had french class la if not we could have partied the whole nite away hahaha...........cant really imagine how we spent like close to 2 hrs together without really realising it......hurhur im sure anyone who has spent time before with close frens would know wad im talking about i guess...........ok i feel im blabbering on.......tsk....

ok actually cos i was watching tv and distracted with so many other thots dat i dunno wad to post about now actually.......amidst the chaos of thots i guess i would post about this strange kinda feeling i have...........i dun really noe how to describe it now but i onli noe im not exactly happy and im not exactly sad or anything..........how i wish i had a concrete feeling instead of not really feeling much of anything.........i dun mind being happy or sad cause there are ways to either stay in dat feeling or get betta in the case of being sad..............mayb its the floating feeling like im not really here or there like titus happened to mention.....come to think of it he is rite to some extent.....its like i finish skool ready but im not in ns yet.....true i got lotsa free time to do alot of thing dat i want to do but the fact of the matter is im still floating, waiting for ns to come..........my parents dunno it but i kinda regret not starting to work about 2 months ago.........if i started working then mayb i would have more money to spend and not to mention more money to 'give to God's work' (much as i hate to admit it sometimes, my dad is partly rite on this if this was his intent of telling me dat.......) to me its for offering, i dunno wad else he meant...........

i feel this loneliness mayb? if dats a way of describing it...........i dunno la.......words fail me at this point in time........i can onli say wad im sure of..........hmm i feel as if the ppl i can talk to are getting smaller and smaller by the circumstances and many other stuff i cant really stop or explain..........(woah it feels like its not the first time saying this, kinda like deja vu....) i have come to accept it as a fact dat frens, even ur bestest frens have to be shared, especially in a setting like church or yf etc, in fact most settings frens have to be shared (i think) in terms of time spent with them, care from them, opportunities to talk etc........im jus shooting off my head some examples......(im physically and mentally tired now, mayb i cant really think dat straight now....haiz)......i dun blame anyone for dat happening cos its natural, we all onli have this much time to spend on who we choose hahah.......im jus contemplating wad i should i do now...........like sometimes in settings esp social settings i feel abit prone to mayb either not really try talking to ppl i jus noe (by face and name only, nothing much else dat kind), talk to ppl i CAN talk to (of cos frens havta be shared.....), or jus shy myself away and do more thinking or whatever i like to do when im alone, is dat counted as anti-social? haha......i dunno anymore.........

in fact i feel as if i dunno myself anymore, seen my msn nick personal msg? HAHA dats quite how i feel now...........i dunno how daniel lee would react to things already, its like daniel lee feels very different......(heh this is the first time im actually mentioning my own name on my blog haha feels kinda wierd).......daniel lee doesnt know daniel lee anymore? interesting.....is the daniel lee danlee used to know a friendly person? if so y is daniel lee feeling like shying away from crowds and ppl he does not know so well? in some sense not going out of my home seems a safe enough facade for me, jus carrying on my 'usual routine' waking late, watching tv, watching shows on the comm, occasionally playing the guitar and packing my room................arre the other things dat i do jus a social, moral (etc) obligations?????? lol

i wish i had answers, alot of answers from my Heavenly Father......rite now alot of things are jus maybeS and speculations stuff....haiz.............

"..................not forsaking the assembling of yourselves as some is.........." (mumbles) taken from somewhere in the new testament of the bible.........its jus abit of wad im thinking about.....go figure heh...........enough rambling "......" time to say good nite......

rock and roll -- the devil's music?

this was an email sent to me by serene........


ROCK MUSICIANS AS MEDIUMS

Updated April 19, 2007 (last updated January 2, 2002; first published June 16, 2001) (David
Cloud, Fundamental Baptist Information Service, P.O. Box 610368, Port Huron, MI 48061,
866-295-4143, fbns@wayoflife.org;

In the following statements, rock musicians testify of an outside power that has taken over them while writing and performing rock music. Some of them have actually identified this power as demonic:

JIMI HENDRIX' girlfriend, Fayne Pridgon, said: "He used to always talk about some devil or something was in him, you know. He didn't know what made him act the way he acted and what made him say the things he said, and the songs and different things like that © just came out of him. It seems to me he was so tormented and just torn apart and like he really was obsessed, you know, with something really evil" (sound track from film Jimi Hendrix, interview with Fayne Pridgon, side 4, cited by Heartbeat of the Dragon, p. 50).

"In the end you have to look at a song and not know exactly where it came from" (BRUCE
SPRINGSTEIN, Dateline, Dec. 14, 1998).

Robert Plant and Jimmy Page of LED ZEPPELIN both claim that they don't know who wrote their occultic song Stairway to Heaven. Plant testified: "Pagey had written the chords and played them for me. I was holding the paper and pencil, and for some reason, I was in a very bad mood. Then all of a sudden my hand was writing out words. © I just sat there and looked at the words and then I almost leaped out of my seat" (Robert Plant, quoted by Stephen Davis, Hammer of the Gods, p. 164).

"I've always considered that there was some way where we were able to channel energy, and that energy was able to be, from another source, if you like, like a higher power or something, that was actually doing the work. I've often thought of us just being actually just the earthly beings that played the music because it was uncanny. Some of this music came out extremely uncanny" (Bill Ward of BLACK SABBATH, cited in Black Sabbath An Oral History, p. 7).

"It's amazing, 'cause sometimes when we're on stage, I feel like somebody's just moving the
pieces. ... I'm just going, 'God, we don't have any control over this.' And that's magic" (Stevie
Nicks of FLEETWOOD MAC, Circus, April 14, 1971).

ANGUS YOUNG, lead guitarist for AC-DC, is called the "guitar demon"; and he admitted that something takes control of the band during their concerts: "... it's like I'm on automatic pilot.
By the time we're halfway through the first number someone else is steering me. I'm just
along for the ride. I become possessed when I get on stage" (Hit Parader, July 1985, p. 60).

"We receive our songs by inspiration, like at a seance" (Keith Richards of the ROLLING STONES, Rolling Stone, May 5, 1977, p. 55).

"I was directed and commanded by another power. The power of darkness ... that a lot of people don't believe exists. The power of the Devil. Satan" (LITTLE RICHARD, cited by Charles White, The Life and Times of Little Richard, p. 206).

"You can't describe it [playing rock music] except to say it's like a mysterious energy that comes from the metaphysical plane and into my body. It's almost like being a medium...." (Marc Storace, vocalist with heavy-metal band KROKUS, Circus, January 31, 1984, p. 70).

"They [The Beatles] were like mediums. They weren't conscious of all they were saying, but it was coming through them" (YOKO ONO, The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Berkeley, 1982, p. 106.).

"[Of his music JOHN LENNON said] "It's like being possessed: like a psychic or a medium" (The Playboy Interviews, p. 203).

"It's amazing that it [the tune to 'In My Life'] just came to me in a dream. That's why I don't
profess to know anything. I think music is very mystical" (John Lennon, quoted in "The Beatles Come Together," Reader's Digest, March 2001).

"I felt like a hollow temple filled with many spirits, each one passing through me, each
inhabiting me for a little time and then leaving to be replaced by another" (John Lennon, People, Aug. 22, 1988, p. 70).

"When the real music comes to me, it has nothing to do with me 'cause I'm just a channel. It's given to me and I transcribe it" (John Lennon, quoted by Mickey Hart, Spirit into Sound: The Magic of Music, p. 134).

"The music to 'Yesterday' came in a dream. The tune just came complete. You have to believe in magic. I can't read or write music" (PAUL MCCARTNEY, interview on Larry King Live, CNN,
June 12, 2001).

"I wake up from dreams and go 'Wow, put this down on paper,' the whole thing is strange. You hear the words, everything is right there in front of your face. I feel that somewhere, someplace it's been done and I'm just a courier bringing it into the world" (MICHAEL JACKSON, Rolling Stone, Feb. 17, 1983).

"When I hit the stage it's all of a sudden a 'magic' from somewhere that comes and the spirit
just hits you, and you just lose control of yourself" (Michael Jackson, Teen Beat: A Tribute
to Michael Jackson, Summer 1984, p. 27).

"A lot of the songs were written in 15-30 minutes, very stream-of-consciousness, as though
it was being channeled through us" (Alanis Morissette, quoted from Hells Bells2 by Eric Holmberg).

"When the Siberian shaman gets ready to go into his trance, all the villagers get together... and play whatever instruments they have to send him off [into trance and possession]. © It was the same way with The Doors when we played in concert... I think that our drug experience let us get into it... [the trance state] quicker.... It was like Jim [Morrison] was an electric shaman and we were the electric shaman's band, pounding away behind him. Sometimes he wouldn't feel like getting into the state, but the band would keep on pounding and pounding, and little by little it would take him over. God, I could send an electric shock through him with the organ. John could do it with his drumbeats" (DOORS keyboardist Ray Manzarek, cited by Jerry Hopkins and Daniel Sugerman, No One Here Gets Out Alive, pp. 158-60).

"That certain feeling happened to me in a big way quite often with the first King Crimson. Amazing things would happen--I mean, telepathy, qualities of energy, things that I had never experienced before with music © you can't tell whether the music is playing the musician or the musician is playing the music" (Robert Fripp, guitarist for KING CRIMSON, Down Beat, June 1985, p. 61).

"I believe inspiration comes through me and that I channel it" (Jim Kerr, SIMPLE MINDS, cited by Steve Turner, Hungry for Heaven, p. 147).

John McLaughlin, leader of MAHAVISHNU ORCHESTRA, testified: "One night we were playing and suddenly the spirit entered into me, and I was playing, but it was no longer me playing" (The Rock Report, p. 58).

Glen Tipton of JUDAS PRIEST says, "I just go crazy when I go onstage © it's like someone else takes over my body" (Hit Parader, Fall 1984, p. 6).

In 1974, JONI MITCHELL told the press of a male spirit who helps her write music. "Joni Mitchell credits her creative powers to a 'male muse' she identifies as Art. He has taken so much control of not only her music, but her life, that she feels married to him, and often roams naked with him on her 40-acre estate. His hold over her is so strong that she will excuse herself from parties and forsake lovers whenever he 'calls'" (Why Knock Rock? p. 112, citing Time magazine, Dec. 16, 1974, p. 39).

GINGER BAKER, drummer for the popular '60s band CREAM, said: "It happens to us quite often--it feels as though I'm not playing my instrument, something else is playing it and that same thing is playing all three of our instruments. That's what I mean when I say it's frightening sometimes. Maybe we'll all play the same phrase out of nowhere. It happens very often with us" (Bob Larson, Rock and the Church, p. 66).

JOE COCKER, who contorts grotesquely during his performances, claims that something "seizes" him when he songs rock & roll (Time magazine, cited by Bob Larson, Rock and the Church, p. 66).

"When I'm singing and in touch with the energy I'm generating, I sometimes literally have no awareness of where I am. The ego disappears, and me and my surroundings with it. © that's the reason I'm in music--to achieve that feeling" (Daryl Oates of HALL AND OATES, interview with Timothy White, 1987, Rock Lives, p. 592).

The original recording of "I Put a Spell on You" was done after the SCREAMIN' JAY HAWKINS and his band members got drunk and "some type of presence seemed to seize him." He began "grunting, growling, screaming, gurgling in strange unknown tongues, and wildly dancing around the studio" (Heartbeat of the Dragon, p. 40).

"Rock has always been the devil's music, you can't convince me that it isn't. I honestly believe everything I've said-I believe rock and roll is dangerous. © I feel that we're only heralding something even darker than ourselves" (DAVID BOWIE, Rolling Stone, February 12, 1976, p. 83).

"[CARLOS] SANTANA keeps a yellow legal pad handy to record the music when it comes to him 'just like a fax machine'" (Rolling Stone, March 16, 2000, p. 41).

"I really wish I knew why I've done some of the things I've done over the years. I don't know if
I'm a medium for some outside source. Whatever it is, frankly, I hope it's not what I think it is-Satan" (OZZY OSBOURNE, Hit Parader, February 1978, p. 24).

what is on my mind now

well alot actually.....im sorry for those ppl who have been coming to my blog and not finding the latest post changed, the fact is i haven been blogging about recent stuff.........i've beeen updating about past stuff dat i didnt really find time to blog.............and also i've been sleeping alot and watching prison break on my comm and going out and stuff like dat la.......its like dat la when u sudenly have so much time to do wad u wanna do, the list never ends...........and its like blogging is like the last thing on my mind to do cos there is nothing much to blog about daily, its jus waking up late and watching prison break, then doing abit of nonsense then the is over at 2 or 3 am then the cycle continues until i finish watching prison break and stuff like dat...........

haha cos now im having a break and since im not working and all, im pretty much slacking around quite abit..........its like dates do not really matter to me, its jus the days.........the dates are onli significant to me for my QT lol.........the day would jus be my 'marker' if there happens to be anything on like i going out or have ag etc.........

okk mayb something more recent.........i've been thinking (and mayb fretting) about alot of things lately.........like education in the future, the life to be in army, my career next time, what i wanna do, and how my half would be completed (this is cryptic haha i guess onli i would understand hahaha......) but actually now, at this point in time, i dun think im worrying so much already..........i came across this interesting thing to note, during one o my QTs from the daily bread.........it basically said dat whenever u feel worried about sumtin, like u worried u are going to fail a test or worried if some things would happen, then u say "The Lord is my sheperd ... so i'm worried to death" (or whatever it is your worried about, the worst case scenario).........for me it proved dat that contradiction or mayb oxy-moron really gave me comfort and a sense of peace...............so im not really worried about much realy cos i somehow know God has a plan for me, for everything, i jus havta take dat step of faith to really trust Him...........

hmm some things coming up.......
i will be having my graduation ceremony on the 23rd of may haha......i heard graduates will be wearing a special graduation attire for the first time in tp haha........i wonder wad it will look like haha........mayb a gown with a 'motar' hat......haha then they tell me i dun havta go into uni ready, i will get higher pay than them with this diploma already HAHAHA........how can dat be lol.......

i received my NS enlistment letter ready.........it turns out i will be wearing green uniform by 13th july haha......i got my own apprehensions about NS, its not the training la cos i dun think the training or work will really be dat hard to get thru.........im jus worried about the completion of the half (cryptic again).............there will be events needing ....... aiya i shouldnt be thinking so much, jus trust God la..........

i guess there is nothing much ready.......end here for now haha

new bike

i finally decided to get a new bike from a shop in simei lol, the shop was abit outta the way for me from my house but i came to find out there's a bike shop there cos my uncle drove past in his car when fetching my mom and i to simei east point or sumtin there..........

i went there before to check out the bikes la, woah to me the bikes there are quite ex la about 300 for a good and yet not so functional bike, meaning a bike with grip shift and no brake plates......and even more expensive like about 400+ for a good bike with button shift and close to 500 for one bike with button shift and metal brake plates (woah)..........to me bikes at dat prices are expensive la but to ppl like brandon those hardcore cyclists, he spends 1000+ or more on each of his bikes lol.........

ok la so i spent wad i think was worth the money i paid for it.......i bought the bike dat was retailing at $297 or sumtin like dat la.........the reason i bought it was cos it felt very heart pain to spend $200 more for another bike (at $497 ouch!!) i think now i kinda regret not buying dat bike haha cause looking at how much brandon spends on a bike sumtin like dat (of course the parts on his bike(s) are probably more high end la but still to me its the same la)...........end up i jus have the basic functions like front supension (its really smooth and i like it, never had anything like it before but more on dat later.....), the frame not dat light but dats not really a concern to me, as long as lighter than my old bike can ready hahaha......, let me see wad else? erhm grip shift which i must say looks betta than the kinda lousy grip shift on my old bike (when the grip shift on my old bike spoilt, i was quite convinced dat i would not buy a bike with grip shift ever again but oh wells dat was the onli bike dat suited my preconceived budget in my head), kinda regret it now but oh wells the money is spent and its a good bike to me, dats wad most impt i guess so i jus be content la..............i kinda wished i had bought my bike from bishan there, opposite wilfred's house there......cos i heard from nicklaus dat he bought his bike about the same price as mine but it came with button shift for the bike! and lock and whatever not (i cant remember wad else la haiz.....) i wouldnt care about anything else but its button shift! lol sian i paid a total of $305 for my bike plus a very powerful front light and a back light.......dats all lol, but its enough to pacify me from complaining haha.........

cause my bike is new everything so i cycled it to bedok a few times ready haha........my first time cycling to bedok was quite a nightmare and i think i could have gotten killed if not for God's grace.........my first time i didnt noe any pavement or anything so i jus went the onli way i knew......i jus went the way the bus would have went on the pavement at first, but after da the pavement ceased to exist........i jus had to go on the road lol......i had a super bright light and a back light so suprisingly no cars honked at me...........i jus dun understand y when i was younger, everytime i went on the road with my bike there'd be some car dat jus decides to hornat me for no apparent reason lol........i wonder y..........

anyway i was very careful cycling on the road but there are like some things dat u cant really be careful about........the problem was i didnt really look very closely at the road.......it would be foolish to stare at the road and not notice the cars (and buses) zooming by u as u go haha........i skidded off a stone (i think, i didnt turn around and look) cos i was going quite fast cause its stressing when cars have capabilities speeds so fast...........after the skid, i jus braked to prevent myself to skid anymore out but still i imagine if there was a car going near to me, and suddenly i skidded abit i might have been knocked down and i would be part of the road ready haha........but i really thank God for His providence..............

on my way back from bedok i discovered a way back home dat was free from riding on the road and all, mostly pavement, cutting thru the park and all, the onli road i need to go on technically is the road at my house there, which can be very quiet, its like i own dat road like dat.........haha i guess in time to come, before army i will be cycling around on my new bike alot........

end of this post and i dun really know wad to say.com

napfa test

well i had my napfa the second time......i booked it on wednesday, but i didnt know it would be like at 730am la...so early in the morning! and cos its a napfa test conducted by mindef or sumtin co its onli held at toa payoh stadium......

woah abit the far from my house ah........i havta wake up extra early summore........anyway on the day of the test i wanted to wake up at like 530am (cause a standard rule for me (for places far away from my home) is to wake up 2 hrs before the meeting time so that i will have enough time to do my qt and wad not as well as travel to my destination haha)........but end up i couldnt wake up cos about 5 plus hours is definitely not enough for someone who just loves to sleep (like yours truly here).........

anyway i talked to emmanuel tan (i think) a few days before my napfa test, he came back from overseas to get his enlistment stuff done, i didnt expect to be able to take the napfa test the same day and time as him lol.........

doing the napfa test with someone you know and can talk abit to is quite nice in the sense of the companionship haha............i think i scored everything A or B except 2.4 run haha.....dat was bad haha i think i should have trained up abit or mayb pushed myself...........but even though its quite disappointing at 12 mins haiz, i still managed to get a silver award.....cos i think i jus managed to get a D for my running lol, so 2 months off NS, a load off my chest la....

but i must say dat the army napfa test is more strict than skool haha, skool wann like ppl anyhow do oso can get A lol haha.....drats i shouldnt have ate dat day la if not i would have gotten gold easily ready haha........but its ok i guess cos i heard dat ppl who take their poly napfa havta retake a ns one so i should be more or less prepared...........

emmanuel got about the same as me except his pull ups couldnt pass, so sad his running quite good leh, about 10 mins 30 lol, i miss the good old sec skoool days where my timing would be dat or less i guess (i didnt really run seriously then and i got 11 mins lol......), i really miss my sec skool damai canoeing training, this is not the first time im saying this........i miss the frendships, the passion for canoeing (tho i still hav the passion now, i dun hav an outlet for regular trainings and races to look forward to anymore) as well as the thril of riding on the water, im filled with nostalgia when i think about those good old canoeing days......end up emmanuel got bronze lol so its like so wasted, cause of his pull-ups he did the whole napfa test for nothing.......anyway he will be coming back next time to take it again after his uni end or sumtin..........he went back overseas already (quite long ready at this time im typing this.......) to dunno do wad la, complete his sudies or sumtin........i think dats all for this post la, its supposed to be quite long ago haha......

pulau ubin cycling

ok i will make this a very short post.....cause it was quite long ago and all.........

well julia msged me one day ask me if i interested to go pulau ubin cycling lol....and i thot she msg the wrong person lol so i replied her dat she msged the wrong person haha....it was on thursday in the march holidays (yeah dat was how long ago....) end up after quite a few ppl called me at one go lol........haha i didnt noe i was so popular lol (or not most probably)......end up i think jasmine, charles, julia and wilfred all called me at almost the same time lol.......its like when i was having a call with one person, another person will call me and i will hold the current person and then i answer the other person's call haha...it was the first time ever i received so many calls at one time lol......quite interesting lol......

oh yeah on dat day on the trip, julia they all had arranged to meet up at bishan before making their way down to changi jetty, i thot it didnt make sense for me to go down to bishan then to changi jetty when my house is quite near to changi jetty........anyway i found out the bus number dat goes from my house to changi jetty, which is 59........so we were supposed to meet at 1030am at changi jetty........by the time i left my house after getting up and getting ready everything it was nearing 10 or mayb a few minutes later than dat.......so i msged julia dat i would be late....she didnt reply (i found out after that dat she didnt see her phone haha).........end up when the 59 bus came to my house there,

anyway i went ubin cycling with quite a few ppl i must say, lets see charles, jasmine, gillian, julia, joy, wilfred, matthias, kar wei (im suprised he went heh)........not bad i must say i had a very great time, cycling around ubin very fun and the bike dat i rented was quite a good one dat i got for half the price of wilfred and matthias's bike, they paid like $10 for their bikes probably whole day (but we all didnt use our bikes for the whole day anyway).........i really enjoyed the bonding between everyone on dat day its like its special to me la dunno y oso..........

anyway one of the highlights of the (that) day was the food there man......shiok la........cos there was so many of us so some of us ate our own zhi cha sets like fried rice and eee mee or sumtin like dat......julia, joy and i ate rice and shared 2 dishes, i think it was lemon chicken and pai gu wang (its pork ribs la, oh yeah damn funny the menu said pai gu da wang which literally translated means pork rib BIG king HAHAHA, super funny to me man.....).......then after dat wilfred ordered 2 big plates of kang kong and one big plate of pepper beef and im not sure wad else la, but i jus noe i ate until quite shiok after all the cycling.....we stopped quite early cos alot of ppl had to go back to church for children's camp meeting........and i had a.g. later on as well, i was the worship leader haha.........anyway i had a great day then after a.g. i slept immediately aftre i reached home bathe everything haha....but super fun la heh..........dats all for now......

the floorball friendly between FBFC and AB's team

heh this was a recent match and yet its not dat recent cause at least 2 weeks has passed since the match haha........

well some comments on the game la.........almost everyone in FBFC prepared alot for the upcoming match lol....wilfred came up with an official 'playbook' lol on how we should be positioned when the ball is with the keeper and when we are taking a free hit and the defending system everything lol.....serious lol.........he explained it to us like one week before the match and we practiced our plays on one saturday lol........we more or less could remember wad to do but i guess on dat day it was so much different dat we didnt really stick to our places and (i dunno about the others in my team la) i felt i was running around into places i shouldnt have run..........mayb cos halfway matthias change my position to a defender and stuff which is quite different from being a forward...........

on the actual day i think we all played very badly, ok mayb im jus speaking for myself..........i dunno about the others but i was out of position most of the time even though i scored a goal myself (but i think it wasnt a very very nice wilfred kinda goal, it was a messy goal to me la).......especially in defending i felt i was running all over the court, like running over to joel, the other defender's half and all......as a forward i felt the play-ups was very very messy, many times i could not exact out the play ups cos it was very fast paced and i think the main thing was dat they were going after the ball, jus knocking everything else in the way (which was a good tactic for pressuring sumone and causing them to make nonsense passes that fell short or went above grounder balls (which are harder to take shots immediately by the way) ...........i cant really remember much of anything ready la cos it was quite long ago and all, most of us's first time playing in a bigger 'court' than the fellowship hall haha........i think we drew each other 5 - 5 lol........dats about it from me i guess lol.......

sending mayboo and sam off.....

heh sorry everyone i haven been blogging for awhile........heh no time la, even tho im having holidays and all but floorball and other stuff has taken up alot of my time heh dat i didnt have the time to settle down to finally type this.........

i guess this will be a short post cause sending mayboo and sam off was quite long ago ready heh......i see wad i can remember la.........this is jus old news la so jus for a read if u like heh........

haha i sent mayboo and sam off all the way into the transit area, heh with my staff card that i got from my internship......dat card expired at end feb so i kept it until the very last day till i sent sam off heh..........my card allowed me to go into the arrival and departure transit area (which most of the public cannot go in), in case u didnt know.............

anway sending ppl of esp i transit is quite a funny feeling, like especially if there are quite a few ppl sending dat particular person off (like for sam and mayboo, but on the other hand not much ppl sent daryl off heh).....its like ur inside transit area waiting for the person going off to clear the customs check on their passport then after 'dat person' will look back and wave to the ppl outside heh......then of course the ppl outside wil wave back......then there i am looking at the whole scene and all its quite a funny feeling because i dunno whether to wave or not.........its super funny la haha..........i could wave back too if i wanted heh.........but mayboo told me not to wave hahaha.....damn strange heh.......but dats about all i can remember about sending them off haha......

oh yeah mayboo dat muddlehead called me one day after she left singapore, from adelaide looking for her laptop charger la, so cuckoo, i helped her inquire at the transit gate there as well as the information counter in transit but couldnt find it heh........end up i think she found it in her room mate's room or sumtin like dat, i dunno the whole story so yeah.......so long ready, dun need to ask her about it ready, at least she found her laptop charger, if not no internet at all for her! hahahaha.........dats all i guess for sending ppl off..........i returned my card the day i sent sam off heh.......so no more privileges as well, discounts in changi ariport shops as well........i thank God that He provided my colleague (who usually works late) who was still in the office after i sent sam off, if not i might havta make another trip down to changi airport jus to return my airport pass..........

its jus been a very sian weekend

i dunno y la this whole weekend i didnt feel the least bit like myself la.........i think it started on friday nite la, i really wanted to sleep and i was tired and all but i jus could not get to sleep LOL how torturous (i think i didnt get a wink of sleep seriously)........must be dat (EXPENSIVE) belgium coffee i had with mayboo after watching the protege (how long has it been since i last watched a movie lol) with her, i must say its quite a good show and all except for abit of the gory parts haha......mayboo was like practically jumping out of her seat when one of the drug dealers guys use a hammer to crudely hammer off one guys wrist haha.........and mayboo can be a director ready la she almost practically noes wad will happen next lol......i had a good time la, catching up with mayboo on some stuff as well.........but i think i shouldnt have drunk coffee!!! ouch it was so expensive la and i never ever buy such drinks one by the way........but it was nice i must admit.....once in a blue moon la if not i'll go broke jus going out all the time and spending money so extravagantly......pain leh........

anyway back to my sian weekend..........floorball in the morning was ok la, jus normal fun heh........i jus felt very sian at yf after dat i dunno y oso..........it was skool day and all...........after skool day i felt my normal lost feeling lol........its like the ppl dat i normally talk to , or those dat i can talk to jus disappeared or went home, went for reunion da da da............

i stayed downstairs and stayed there for awhile after rachel asked us all to go look at the booth........i took a look and the shirts dun really look like much (as in the design wise........sorry rachel.......) but i really might consider buying (from wad i hear i betta decide soon) cos even though the designs dun look like much, the price seems reasonable (or mayb im getting more spendthrift without realising it......), i dun really mind to part with my $40 for "a good cause" (lol im not noble i guess haha.......) i saw ppl all sitting around and all all like very sian and all lol........i jus felt like going home lol.........it was like dark and nobody started captain's ball at all! the onli thing they all were playing was table tennis which i'm not really good at............how come it seems dat bishan can play more things? lol i guess its due to the strict management in gardens, i heard dats y most of them dun really hang out in gardens anymore cos its like so restricted there in some sense.......not dat bishan is really open to anything la but i jus feel dat we can play more things at bishan.....like floorball, captains ball, basketball, soccer etc.........im NOT using this as an excuse to draw ppl to bishan im jus stating my opinion on my blog LOL...............

anwyay after dat i went upstairs and in my mind i was thinking so dats where some of the ppl dat i can talk to went........i didnt really talk to much ppl haha i saw my brother playing sepak tekraw (luckily he was playing in some sense if not if i saw him downstairs i would have brought him home long ago heh......)......i guess i was jus tired and all la.........i played such an old skool game with john foo, lydia, sara tan (the younger one) and sebbie...haha cheered up a little...i cant believe lydia never played erasers before lol....so funny i wonder wad she played in her childhood heh......in spite of me wanting to go home early everything i think my brother and i left gardens church for dinner quite late i guess........cos my brother wanted to play every thing........i jus didnt have the mood for anything at all lol..........after the delicious beef noodles at gardens (i always eat nothing else but dat whenever i go gardens, im hooked i guess) my brother and i went home relatively earlier than normal when we go bishan.......but i think we reached home about the same time if not later than coming home from bishan.....dats one of the reasons dat i go bishan besides being able to talk to ppl there in general betta (not all of course, knowing me.....), cos its more accessible from my house heh even tho gardens is nearer i must say.......

(haiz its late and i feel as if im rambling on and on.......i still have another post to post, ok dat mayb tml meaning the later of feb the 28th......)

ok onto sunday...........i jus slept the moment i reached home (of course after bathing all dat) but i jus konked out, didnt bother to do anything else at all lol.....and i had sucha good sleep la but i feel as if sunday i could not wake up at all cos i had such a great sleep dat i could hardly hear my handphone alarm clock lol.......sian too late for yd and all........so i didnt go for it in the end.............after dat i jus went to the junior worship place cos i'm scheduled to play and all.......woah we had like 4 guitarists.........end up matthias didnt play lol cos already got me, shermaine and nat playing.........plus matt snapped nat's guitar string while trying to tune it lol.......haiz i think the 3 of us didnt really work out very well........quite bad i must say..........cause like shermaine's timing is irregular depending on the songs and nat's timing is jus off la, he plays the songs very funny way la i cant really say how he plays la its jus funny........and tho i can play but i cannot like go against nat (and shermaine following him) cos i know its rite and all but yeah cos if i play against them it will sound jus a tard bit too much messiness and noise lol so i hardly played much i guess esp at some songs..........im not complaining about nat or his guitar playing behind his back la but seriously if i had the chance to bring it up to him i would (but this kinda thing abit hard to voice out la, afterwards he turn around and say who am i to say and all, like i very pro like dat then its gone ready lol, dun need tell him anything else ready)........i feel as if i didnt do much as junior worship this particular session to be honest, dat feeling very sian so i have to constantly remind myself dat God is satisfied with the heart and not the 'motions or processes'........oh wells after dat floorball woohoo probably the thing dat brings me back to contentment at least (but not happiness) every week heh..........so tired when i got back but nothing much happened, jus had a really good rest on monday la..................

finally im down to blogging today...........oh yeah by the way i finished my report adn sent it via email already.........such a good feeling lol but i dunno if my teacher received it or not cos she didnt reply my msg, quite worrying cos i might fail my internship if she doesnt get it la, but oh wells as (dunno who) one of the pastors said, worrying does not add 15 mins to your life so i dun worry la, its all in God's hands.............

speaking of being in God's hands, sometimes i jus cant help but wonder or dream about possibilities in every present situation........i mean there is so many 'possibilities' God will work out, sometimes i jus cant help myself but guess "if this might be the way God has planned for me"..........i guess its the age and the hormones probably la...........i oso dun really noe wad to think la...........am i really not trusting God as much as i want to when i dream about the possibilities? lol...........ok enuf about that.........

i went for duck tours with my 2 brothers today HAHAHA! i have never been on a tour around my home country before lol........quite fun and interesting.........but lol which singaporean would pay to go on a tour to see their home country? lol my brothers and i didnt........we got complimentary tickets given to my aunt so she gave us lol..........quite nice la i must say, very enjoyable cos the 'duck' went to the place where i used to canoe when in secondary skool..........dat place sure brings back fond memories lol.........how i wish i had the pleasure of canoeing again in poly as well lol........i would be much happier lol, and if i could have such great team mates as secondary skoool then it could not be anymore perfect lol..............hahah dreaming of things again.........anyway they gave out free duck whistles on board the duck but they onli had 3 lol..........and they were like selling them normally at like 3.85.......siao, onli siao ang mos and silly tourists would buy them lol..............i got to noe more about certain structures in singpore as well........

hmm i jus remembered i didnt blog about my napfa test.........dat was on the friday that passed lol..........haiya sian la..........i am jus not satisfied with my results la.................ok for my five stations, i did pretty ok.........i got all As and Bs, good enough to get gold for napfa (still even though i would consider myself pretty off form due to lack of exercise during my attachment period.....(sian).........).........woah but i when i found out the timing for my 2.4 km, my heart sorta sank for any dreams of getting a gold la.........12.32 mins or sumtin like dat SIAN!!! well its like this, i ate at 240pm on the day of the test, i am damn smart la.........shouldnt have eaten lol.........now all cos of dat meal i havta retest..........the test supposed to start at like 3pm but by the time its started, it was like 330pm..........i was part of the group dat did my 2.4km first, i already dun like the idea of running first, wads more i was quite full.....sian............i began my run and i was in second place until halfway lol (dats at least something i can be proud of)........then after halfway i could not really run cos my stomach felt too full and i started walking for abit and running when i could.........damn sian la the feeling............haiz all cos of dat meal..........too late for regrets now........i will take a napfa retest at the tampines safra or sumtin.........i will get a gold so i can skip 2 months of btp of sumtin like dat, not dat the 2 months really bother me........but yeah lesser time better............

nothing much i can think to blog about ready.........going to coutn my ang pao money and sleep probably.......

oh yeah mayboo, get well soon haha........i jus remembered i wanted to visit you when i wanted to visit titus (but he apparently forgot to msg me heh).........eh mayboo, can...kendrick HAHA!

new floorball sticks!

well i do admit its been a long time since i last posted..........so im posting on valentine's day haha or at least i started posting on valentine's day.........

well today passed by as yet another day without a real valentine........eh wait dat sounds so sad, which i am not by the way (i jus dun hav a reason to be sad or wad anymore haha)........i actually had a great day, not dat not having a real valentine really bothered me much at all..........i have titus my wife wad hahaha........

well for now i am quite free cos i have completed my internship already.......february 9th was my last day lol.........no more waking up early lol......quite shiok im enjoying it.....but for now i havta complete my report and send my internship liason officer (from my skool) a soft copy of my report by this coming monday............quite sian la...........up until wednesday i haven touched my report a single bit lol........

let me try and remember monday i woke up early, wanting to go cmpb for applitude test but then after my "quiet time" and all i couldnt make it there already cos they close at 2pm lol..........then i went to bedok to alter my pants, (my new pants dat i bought from bossini, quite nice, a different colour (its a nice green) from all the pants i already have)........then after dat i bought a double hole belt from there as well.....but even though its abit short i still bought it cos its nice, end up my mom help me ask them if they have a longer belt at other branches so if they have they will send it over to bedok (and call to let us noe) for me to change....i seem to be spending alot this lunar new year lol.........shirts, belt, pants, a new stick etc..............oh wells.....after dat i went to the floorball stick supplier's place (i guess it would not be wise to mention the supplier's name cos this is a public blog and all, he might get into trouble) to see sticks, dats where i bought the $45 stick for my brother.........i bought 3 balls too, 2 green (one softer and one harder) and an official black ball from the supplier as well...........altogether $50, he is very nice, he rounded off the figure so dat its easier to count.........

tuesday............another day of going out all around singapore.......this time i managed to wake up earlier and managed to get to cmpb earlier and do up my applitude test.........woah my applitude test i felt wook very long la, at first when i took the test i wasnt really tired but after dat i felt so drained and mentally tired, there were like so many questions like mayb about 400 plus i think (mayb it may not be dat many but it sure felt like there were lol)........they tested me on so many types of questions la like pictorial patterns, links between words and many many other stuff, mathematical questions as well...........shagg man.....after dat my mom and i close some fund savers account, dat one i oso blur, i dunno wad dat was there for lol............after dat i went down to tampines to look at sticks in the shop in the tampines sports hall.............i dream oso i wont guess dat there is a retail shop selling blast and fatpipe sticks so near my house........i went there mainly to see the blast stick collection cos i was considering buying the blast grapper...........but it wasnt in stock at the shop and looking at the specs and listening to wilfred's advice (i arranged to meet him there), i decided against buying it...........after dat wilfred and i had dinner and we both made our separate ways to the suppliers place (cos wilfred forgot to bring helmet for me haha)......pillion riding with wilfred i must say he is quite a steady driver lol, he said he drive alone more reckless haha.........ok dun digress, i went to the floorball stick supplier's place and i collected the new stick for my brother as well as the few balls dat i bought, as well as my new stick which costs $125.......i wont mention the name of the stick here............the supplier fit on a different blade from wad i wanted (i wanted the green blade cos it was my favorite colour and all) , saying its a better blade and all (especially for airhooks)........black shaft and grip with a dark purple blade haha i jus dun like the colour heh.........but wilfred and i bought stick bags, wilfred bought one bag dat can hold up to 10 15 sticks, alot of compartments for all his stuff for about $58, i bought a stick bag dat can hold mayb about 4-5 sticks lol for $30, both of us very satisfied with our purchases........the supplier very nice cos he let me try out the purple blade first (the new one which he already used a screw driver and bent it for me, thus since its damaged (ouch i sorta regret asking him to bend my stick for me, the bend marks really heart pain to see in my NEW blade lol ouch) , he cant sell it anymore), then if i really didnt like the purple blade, i could go back to him to change to a new green blade, really nice guy........i brought everything back home, and i jus had to confess everything la cos this kinda thing cannot really hide for long from my parents so jus tell them the truth lol, i got scolded abit for spending quite abit, $265 in all but i dun really care la..........heh........woah this is a long post (as always), its going to get longer still.........

valentine's day........hmm i spent most of the day at home jus really wiping the tiles of the bathrooms and my house washing area (there's a washing machine there and my family scrub laundry and hang clothes out to dry there as well......)........i dunno why i didnt hav any objections or wad to do household chores today, normally i would complain lol..........normally i oso wont do unless im asked to do haha...........after dat i chatted online for awhile haha, found out the meaning of uber, one of the words dat jason chua always use haha.........as well as uber micro, pwnage, HAHAHA its entertaining jus to think about wad i read online jus now HAHA.........uber means super or above etc....ok haha i should stop.......today i went out to buy small little tins of paint to paint wadever i wanted, heh $3 for 2 small tins, i think its quite reasonable haha........i wanna paint my phone cover black cos im quite tired of the black velvet cover, it will tend to stink over time.........i bought green paint as well but i dunno wad really to do with it now dat wilfred said my stick would look uglier if i painted it cos the paint will come off and all..........oh wells i guess i can always find some use for all the paint la haha..........its not much anyway, onli a palm sized tin.........oh yeah after trying out the blades at tampines sports hall again today, i think i will keep my purple blade cos mayb it is easier to lift the ball using the purple blade..........the floorball stick supplier offered to give me a t-shirt to sorta compensate for the bite marks probably from his son on my supposedly new stick...............he told us his son bit some of the sticks, so mine is like very little bits of the plastic coating was bit off..........i think i'm going to ask him if i can get the penalty box kit instead, which is actually a face/hand towel plus a bottle i think...........if cannot then nvm lol i'll jus settle for the shirt.........hopefully its a nice design, instead of a plain one..........but anything oso can la i guess.........

ok la i think this post is long enough, i need to sleep, tired man........later at 3pm got napfa test.........i should get more rest..........morning i should wake up earlier to do my report as well......hmm......oh ya sorry everyone who reads my blog, haven been having the time to blog........and these past few days my brother was hogging the comm to do his jae thing, i think he did it for like 3 nites lol...........

absence makes the heart grow fonder

hmm yeah i think dat is so true especially today..............i planned a long long time ago to go to arpc and see how their services were........since last year december thereabouts but i didnt get to do anything about it for a long while........cos we had quite abit of commitments going on and all......by we i meant our yd lol..............

well today i jus planned to go...........i planned to go alone...........like seriously alone......jus go by myself and see how it feels like.......been feelin a kinda wierd lately, dunnno how to describe it la.....

anyway i went for yd late as usual today, wa today super hard to wake up la i set my alarm clock at 730am but i could not get out of bed till 8am lol.......end up i took a bus there lol......i reached at about 930am............after yd as we were going into main service, i told titus dat i felt like going to arpc lol........he wanted to go with me (i really appreciate his kindness on hind sight lol.......not dat i didnt appreciate it when he first said it la).........

i was walking out of church slowly and thinking to myself if i should go or not........i had more or less made up my mind already lol......then i saw joanne and elizabeth who saw me walking out and kinda lingering out of church...........they asked me where i was going lol with my bag and all.....and i told them arpc...........then the amazing thing is dat they have beeen wanting to go visit there as well...........they very on lol......after i told them i felt like going to arpc, they jus said ok lets go together................

hmm on hindsight, i think i'm very thankful dat they came with me, more thankful than i express lol.........cos im thinking if i really went there alone, i would not have anyone to talk to and all, i would feel very very ultra lonely (more lonely and sad than i'm feeling now...........(not dat im Very sad or wad, in fact not at all la)).............including no one to talk to about the service etc, or share my experience..........

the point of this post is to say dat i didnt really enjoy going to arpc lol..............i find dat there's really no place like the mother land lol..........zion bible presbyterian church...............the church from which my youth fellowship lies, the church from which the floorball team and committee which im in is based in.......................sumtin in my heart jus pulls me back to zion........not dat im patriotic to the church or wad (if there is such a term).......but yeah i cant explain it but i sure can feel it when i visited another church...................

i didnt really enjoy the service at arpc today, even though they had electric guitars, drums, bass probably, and a guitarist and singers up in front too...........powerful is powerful no doubt...............but going there, if i search my heart i can safely say dat i wasnt there for the 'rite reasons', i feel as if i was looking all around at many other things (not physically but yeah dats all i can say for now) except during the message la............i feel dat the motherland is still the best la...........

i had a very great time playing floorball today man........super fun and all.....i love it........mayb soon im going to get another stick and a bag and bring my own sticks every week lol.......i dun mind lol.....today it was raining outside the fellowship hall super cold so almost everyone was quite lethargic but i ran alot today lol.........and super cold lol.....its like when u sweat and u run summore esp in cold weather, it was like i was having cold sweat haha but the feeling was good....and i scored a few today haha.......in my favorite small goalpost summore shiok la..............

oh yeah haha jus as i typed finish dat i remembered........i jus wanna thank God for lunch money today.........cos even though my dad reminded me today, i forgot to take my lunch money this morning lol.........i knew after i reached the airport today and i was thinking at the back of my mind of how im going to have enough money to eat...........i prayed a silent prayer to God during my day before i met the rest asking him to somehow provide fro my lunch..........i didnt want to draw money cos it was troublesome and all........i was thinking of borrowing money from the 2 new uni interns dat came today but i jus prayed and trusted God to provide lol.........end up i counted the money in my wallet, alrite man i had jus enough for lunch and a drink as well lol! so good, i really thank God for His provision in some sense lol.............

nothing else to say except like 4 of us excluding uncle peter went to send daryl off today.........and somehow jus talking to them then made me feel quite warm...........like all of them were listening to me, and somehow i really liked some part of it i cant describe......it seems a long while since i talked to ppl like dat already..................

Blessed New Year!

hmm a start of a new year.........well im very sorry ppl that i didnt really manage to get u anything this year (i dunno if i hav mentioned this before so i jus say again la).......i wanted to get candy canes for ppl for christmas (i first saw them in like late november dat time last year (haha)) and then i decided to wait until nearer christmas then buy, apparently i waited too long, about 17th dec they were all sold out ready lol and its like no more stock coming in, onli one shipment and i missed it lol...............sad man.........

so yeah im very sorry i guess.............i guess i can onli give u all handwritten notes for now la haiz.............onli my intention to give sumtin is there now haiz.......sorry........

oh yeah i felt i wanted to talk about this......the new year man.........

well for the first time i attended watch nite service yesterday lol..........i was suprised by the total turnout of the youths yesterday, i didnt expect so many youths there and most importantly i didnt really know y i went for watchnite.........(ok mayb cause my yd met for dinner at cartel then after dat we jus went for watch nite together lol......)but seriously i didnt know the significance of watchnite lol like go there and 'watch' for the next year to come, a good way to start the new year everything, i dunno la......there must be sumtin, a more significant reason for me to go for watchnite la, not jus for frens...................it shouldnt be for frens ever i think, it should be for Christ alone but when can it be truly be onli for Christ alone and noone else? hmm.....

im personally very thankful for yi ling (and her parents), some girl in my yd............cos the situation last nite was like this : after watch nite it was like 12am and a new year had come, chris wu, aunty lily's son asked me to come down with him lol, then as i was going down the gardens staircase, i saw yi ling and her family walking down together (dats noit the end of the story).........shortly after chris asked me to find yi ling and call her when i had gone upstairs.....we went to find sarah cos my phone was dead and chris and i didnt have her number............end up sarah called her and her family and her had already left, then they had to come back to church to pick me up! lol so embarassing lol..........i could hav slept in church cos im a guy and all but im really paiseh lol........yi ling's parents sent me alltthe way to downstairs of my block lol........so paiseh and yet very thankful for God's provision, more than dat...........initially i wanted to go home early from the watchnite service not onli cos i was sick but also because i was alone, but the main reason is cos my parents were not with me, i cannot take cab with them and i cant possibly have any other form of transport back yesterday (i was told today dat there were 'major' bus services available till 130am, so i could still have made it.........o_O)
, during the break after the testimonial part to the actual watchnite service, i prayed to God, asking and trusting Him to provide if He wills for me to stay for the watchnite..........and so fast after dat i realised His provision and His mercy! I am very thankful to God firstly, then yiling and her parents from sending me home........

oh yeah i was sick the past few days so i didnt go for yf last saturday........i had fever 3 days ago, and a sore throat, i swallow my saliva or anything oso my throat hurt, and i had a headache at the back of my head, i think this was all due to my buildup of lack of sleep la, like i everytime sleep late and wake up early lol....so harmful to my body lol...........anyway now im betta ready, no more fever, this morning i coughed out quite abit of green flam lol so my throat is feeling betta now lol..................
