Windom??? A parody of Gundam

I find this quite recently, about two weeks ago. It is a parody of gundam by using gundam like robots. The names of the mechas are taken from the name of OSes, like MS 98, Longhorn, XP-SP3 and soon. Game play is pretty much similar with Gundam VS Gundam. Fun to play but very addictive.

Life is like a boat



Lyrics in English

Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who's gonna comfort me, and keep me strong?

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin' and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you through another day

Breathing in the distance
As if I've become transparent
It seemed to be the dark
But I was merely blindfolded

I offer my prayers
And wait for a new day
To the end of the sea
That shines vividly

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

People's hearts move
And want to slip out
The moon in its new cycle
Brings along boats again

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Oh, I can see the shore
When will I see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you, and keep you strong

The journey is still continuing
On the calm days, too
The moon in its new cycle
Begins to shine on boats again

I offer my prayers
And wait for a new day
To the end of the sea
That shines vividly

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Rowing the boat of destiny
The waves assault us
One after the next
But that's a wonderful journey, too
Any one of them is a wonderful journey

This song could represent my feeling this few days. I feel empty, something important is missing, but life still goes on. The only difference is that I don't have a certain someone who could be my source of motivation of encouragement. You are right to say that I don't have a special someone yet. Like what the song says, no one knows me very well, not yet, not even a single person. Life is a journey, an unending journey. There is no finish line, just a time limit. I want more people to know me, I want to be more open, but..... It is very hard to change in a few days. For starter, I have to talk more..... Being too quiet is not good also. Even the Cello instructor say that I was too quiet, rare to find a guy who is that quiet. Must talk more, but talk to who?

A confession

" You can do better, you are potential 2 A student, just what happen to you? " I remember Mr Yeo said this line very clearly last month, 29th of May. To be honest, I have not taken school seriously, not even once. I admit that I don't like to spent hours with school related stuff, especially those that involve memory work. I know that I never put my 100%, but I dunno why I does that. I remember that my teachers, especially my form teacher Ms Heng was disappointed with my O Level result. I only get 2A1 and 1A2 when they know that I can get 4A1 if I study enough. Where did the strong motivation I had during sec 3 time had gone? I was the top science student in my class. My Physics and Chemistry topped the entire school with a huge gap next to the second in place. Where the motivation to polish my blade has gone? It was sharp enough to challenge Mr Salim, the most detestful Math teacher I ever had. It was also shiny enough to gain recognition from Mr Joseph, one of the best Maths teacher I ever had. I even topped the entire school for AMC10. Where it has gone why I leave it to dull? Not only Mr Yeo had questioned me but other teachers has done that before him. Including Mr Yong and Mrs Sze. They know I can do it, but why I don't pick my blade and start polishing it and sharpening it? I remember one of Chinese fencer said that to obtain a great victory one must fight the hardest battle which is a fight against oneself. So, is it really the time to force myself to study?

Science Centre Trip



The Trip was fun. However, it a bit defeating the purpose. Many people did not attend and we split into different groups which is totally defeat the purpose. I find out that N and XY is in relationship that day. No wonder N bought 2 tickets for the panorama concert.
It was a fun day, but very tiring. zzzzzz

My face look like chow ah beng in the photo, darn it. Eh why MG very distanced with the rest?

Sayonara TPJCO

The Panorama concert was a blast. Our hard-work had been paid. We could hear thunderous applaud from the audience; especially our choice piece. We had done well, well done TPJCO. The seniors were coming also. This is a photo taken by our senior, Chi ling.

The photo was taken before our performance, during the break (intermission) time.

The entire Panorama Concert end at about 10:20. We had to pack the instruments afterward. We finish it long before the lorry come, but.... WTF WHY MUST LET BAND GO FIRST. WE HAVE LESS INSTRUMENTS TO BE CARRIED TO THE LORRY AND WE FINISH THE PACKING FIRST. Some idiot banged one of our double bass with a xylophone family instrument. Lucky it does not suffer significant damage (only the bridge dislocated) and Shen Yee was there to place the bridge.

During the packing, Man Pang shows a clear sigh that he could be the next QM, he organized the order and where the instruments should be placed inside the lorry.

Sigh still got Science Centre Trip tomorrow as part of S&E outing.....

My Jouney In CO close to the end

I just want to proudly announce that TPJCO manage to clinch silver award even though our CO is filled with beginners. To do such a feat in about two months was miraculous. TPJCO had done well, our hard-work has been paid. It is over now. What's left for us is the Panorama concert, and that will be our last time performing together. I decide to make a video for memorial sake and a gift for everyone. Sayonara TPJCO. I know that I will miss the time we're practicing together, as an orchestra. I'll miss you guys. I'll miss the music. I'll miss the instruments also. T.T.

Questioning Heaven

When I was little, I naively believed that God and religion is the same entity. Quite some time ago, I find that somehow there are conflicting ideas in both.

Can we say that God does not intervenes in earthly matter so that he allows evolution, then we can create a bridge between it. But the theory of Dino-bird link completely oppose the scriptures written by Moses. So what now, treat it as hoax? But there is too many fossils to treat it as hoax or taking it as it might be the opposite? What about carbon dating, can we take 1 day in the scripture can be more than 1000 days in real life? Then what about the great flood described when it comes to Noah? Scientists predict that there is not enough water to cover the entire earth. Can we say that it was written that way as at that time man only know small part of the planet? how about the part that mention that the earth is flat? I can't find a good way to bridge it but for earth to be centre of universe, theory of relativity might explains it. I question, is there such thing as spirit, if there is, is the spirit of mentally ill patient defected? How about multiple personality?

Why the church used to be sexist during the classical period? Why the twelve disciples are racist? Then why people kill in the name of religion? Why we impose our views on others? Why we bother to start a war in the name of religion? Then what about African slaves, did the bible mention anything about it?
