Catcalls for the Loved

I can't decide which one's more ridiculously hilarious;
Two boys having a Justin Bieber TapTap Showdown. Extreme Style.
Or the loser defending himself by saying "I'm just not used to tapping balls, unlike SOMEONE!"
HAHA.

Perhaps a meaty treat for you

Dear Shadow,
You are 14 human years old, which means you are 98 dog years old this year. You've been with me since I was 2 years old. And I can vaguely remember feeding you cheese squares and sitting on you. Not to mention the time when you pooped under daddy&mummy's bed and I kept your secret for you, that is until they found out where the smell was coming from.
Then I grew a little bit older and very much fatter. I'm sorry I sat on you, and caused you to tumble over. Might I remind you that I was quite young and foolish. I also remember the times I fed you KitKat. Well, let's forget about the fact that chocolates are bad for dogs because you're still alive. No less the moments where I threw you a ball expecting you to catch it, and you just moved aside and sat down again which caused me much aggravation and laughter. And the moments you were sick and caused me much worry and sorrow.
Even though you're at a age where most would say will be your last, I still have it in mind that you'll live forever. You're still rather active even though you get tired often and sleep more now. And we still chase each other around the house occasionally.
I just wanted to say that you're my Superdog.
Oh and I think it's time for you to bathe. You kinda stink.
Much Love, Pui Teng.

So I do, Madonna


To feel a calm serenity that hushes the fast-forwarding world around us. Bringing the haste and rush of life to a standstill. A moment in time where there is no longer a need for a constant compromise between thinking and breathing.
It's nice to wake up in the morning after a rainfall.

How plucky

I wonder, if you can't keep peace in your mind, let alone among your family and friends, how do you expect to keep peace in the world?

Oh and I wish that Vitagen came in bigger bottles :D

That fellow is so shrewd

Say hello to my Japan tour bus driver :)
He doesn't like being photographed though. His blurred hand was an attempt to stop me from taking a picture of him. But I couldn't bear to delete this picture. He's just too adorable.
By the way, this is for you Alison Lee!

Tom Sawyer was no coward.



I was looking through the photographs I took in Japan today when I became aware of the fact that I had an unusually large amount of photos of people taking photos of others.
Most people take photographs so that they can hold on to that special moment even when the memory of it fades away. To witness the attempts of man to preserve their memories. It makes it all the more special for me, I suppose.
It reminds me how brief life can be sometimes. And the inevitablity of death. But the sooner we accept the fact that we are all going to die one day, the faster we can start actually living life.
So go on, you are going to die soon, so start living :)

The ripping, tearing, striking thunder

Paperweight by Joshua Radin & Schuyler Fisk.
Just Plain Awesome.

The afterclap of the rebellion struck down

I dare say this picture is a wee bit slanted. Oh well (:

Did you know?
In my class, singing "One Little Two Little Three Little Indian Boys" is a very appropriate sport as you can actually count them while singing this delightful tune. That every upper secondary student has the ability to differentiate a teacher's mood just by the way they walk into class. Or the the best known western names in China are Jesus Christ, Richard Nixon and Elvis Presley.
Well there goes some unnecessary knowledge for you.

Twist and curl

Dylan has a Ukulele keychain on his pencilbox.
I like him (: Then again, wouldn't you?

I've recently realised the significance of the person that sits next to you in class. I mean, I've always known that they were somewhat important, but it's so much more than that.

They are Friend, Confidante, Shrink, Private Supporter, Study Buddy, Influence, First Aid Kit, Family, Comforter, Care Bear, The Help, Food Supplier, Joke Sharer, Therapist, Psychiatrist, Problem Solver, Class Clown, Nagging Mother, Best Friend.

Are you sober yet?

You know,
I really do enjoy learning, it's just that I really hate homework.
Especially the 5 months of AddMath homework that's due tomorrow.

It's not a custom, it's habitual.

In disgrace;

You might think it awfully shallow of me to say this. But I need to lose weight. Yes I am aware that I'm not fat and that weight should not be an issue for me. Nonetheless, when you are around people I hang out with, you tend to feel self conscious from time to time.

Allow me to clarify;
Kim is 40kg. Timur is 44kg. Shareena is 45kg.
Ashwin is 40kg. Arvind is 44kg. Freddie is 49kg. And they are from the male gender. Enough said.

I suppose I should be confident in myself. And not allow this to affect me whatsoever.
But sometimes, it's just to make yourself feel better.
You get me?

Paperweight on my back

They always say that the revelation of how important someone is only comes after they're no longer by your side.
But no matter how much I try, I can't seem to remember, no less imagine my mother not being there for me. It leaves me in awe how she manages to stay by me even through the countless times I've aggavated her. And yes, I've aggravated, exasperated, annoyed, irked, peeved, provoked, irratated and angered her one too many times.
Hence, would there be meaning if I apologised for the hard times I gave her and thanked her for staying by my side? Would the words in my voice make a difference? I somehow doubt so. So now what?

Pressing letters to lips

I smile at the fact that our chemistry experiment was an epic fail.
I shudder at the thought of our pink concert costumes.
I crinkle my nose in delight because there were Big Apple doughnuts under her desk.
I sigh at the fact that Physics is still incomprehensible to me.
I laugh when I remember how he tried to use his mental energy to open a tight lid.
I lament on how we all still have issues with each other.
I crack up when he just decided to sit on the lid instead.
I dislike that we have to lie and slide on the dirty classroom floor.
I grin when I saw them little kids dancing.

Oh school.

Kaleidoscope of colours that prove to me

Because we're family.

Sleeping with the wolves tonight

I met him on the first day I was in Japan. And I already love him (:

The ground gives way to you

When I look into your eyes, all I see is my reflection in your pupils.
Your sincerity and deceit obscured to me. Your genuine feelings overshadowed by the words in your voice. Confusion and chagrin surround my mind when I hear your muted anwers to my questions. Leaving me helpless and wondering 'Who in hell said that the eyes were the windows to the soul?'

To fear the morning light

I've always thought that,
When you're at the lowest point in your life, the only direction it can move is upwards.
Now I'm just asking myself when it's going to start moving.

Said then th’ omnific word


Doesn't lol look like a drowning man to you?
