Dear readers,
HOWDY HOWDY.
A Level is finally over!
No more stuffing of notes late at night.
No more last minute chionging of revisions.
Last but not least, NO MORE STUDYING (at least for the next two years or so)!!!!
*screams*
BUT the worse has yet to come. =/
Let me enjoy first. Haha.
Well, since I have some free time before I sleep,
I shall write something here tonight.
Life has been tough (as always) but I've learnt many things through it all.
Relationships are more complicated than I thought they supposed to be.
What is love actually?
I've been pondering about it recently.
What do we love anyway?
Love is so commonly used among our daily conversations and it is frequently used excessively and inappropriately.
What is the actual extent of the consequences of the usage of that word?
The love of family?
The love of partners?
The love of superficiality?
The love of self?
The love of world?
I have this idea striking on me lately.
How many a time we treat our partners as our very good friends instead of someone to share your everything and anything?
How many a time we actually love the person for who they are instead of what they can provide for us?
How many a time we enjoy the company instead of demanding more and more of the person?
How many a time we think for the world instead of ourselves?
How many a time we can sacrifice for something we truly believe in instead of doing what the mainstream is ought to be?
And how many a time we actually sit down and ponder about what we humans can do and our purpose instead of wasting our lives away in vain?
I was told that "Though there may be so many religions in the world, they are all together one religion, and that is the religion of love."
I was taken aback by that statement.
It created so much commotions within me.
So much questions left unanswered.
Yet I was deeply enlightened by it.
I could not agree more.
The sky was beautiful tonight.
With a picture painted by the clouds.
Standing there gazing at the masterpiece.
I can't help but feel safe under the embrace of love.
Good night to all. (: |

Dear readers,
NEW SINGLES!!
I've been hooked. >.O
Britney Spears - 3
God, this song's about threesome.
How cool is that?
I mean the song, not threesome. Hee
Backstreet Boys - Straight Through My Heart
I realised that they can be quite hot.
Especially the botak guy. *yumz*
Anyway, today, I wanna be a lil artsy-fartsy.
So I played with the camera.
I received this from the Navy.
A Commanding Officer, an Excel Sheet Manager and a Powerpoint Supervisor. L0L
The class photo is out.
And to my horror, they're gonna put the first photo in the year book!
I look horrible.
Why can't they put the second one instead? Gees =/

Dear readers,
Recently I've become a kid, again.
I went for Chicky Meal instead of my usual Two-Piece Chicken Meal.
Just for the toy!
Take a look.
I've gotten two of them!
Look at it jump! Cute!
Well, I'm gonna get the other two to make it a set!
I'm so excited.
I've been reading books. (Miraculously)
Only then I realised that reading could be such a joy.
There're so much to learn and be enlightened upon.
I just finished 'Quiet Time' by Johann S. Lee.
Now moving on to 'Tuesday with Morrie' by Mitch Albom.
Love some of the phrases.
I believe that good things come from trying. People nowadays, I think they give up on relationships too readily, especially gay men. It's so easy, don't you think? For us to walk away from the ones we're with just because things get a little rocky.
Relationships aren't supposed to be easy.
-Adapted from Quiet Time
The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and let it come in. Let it come in, we think we don't deserve love, we think if we let it in we'll become soft. But a wise man named Levine said it right. He said, 'Love is the only rational act.'
-Adapted from Tuesday with Morrie
I realised,
I still love you baby. |

Dear readers,
Oh guess what?
I'm now an overnight mugger.
Upon receiving my results and the nearing of A's,
My brain begins to work!
Had my very first productive study-session with Xiwen.
Fancy spending 4 hours at KFC, cracking our brains to solve math equations.
dy/dx
Sounds familiar?
I see no connections.
A day without my mobile with me seemed to be a pretty good idea.
No distractions, no nothin'.
And oh, who still reads this space?
Haha. |

Dear readers,
Yes, I should be sleeping at this ungodly hour.
But I have to thank a few of my darlings keeping me company while I was doing some last minute revision: Jasper 'Jie', Varian Gor and Gwennie Darling Girl.
I am trying very hard to remember those figures and points for tomorrow's paper.
But I don't think it'll help much. =/
Those gossip-sessions were rather therapeutic and beneficial to my revisions. *grins*
And East Coast Mac's is definitely one awesome studying place.
Side track: I'm officially addicted to Mary's Song (Oh My My My) by Taylor Swift.
Wish me luck for my Human Geography paper tomorrow.
('Cause I desperately need it)
Hope all the last minute cramping works.
*cross fingers*
'Till then.
Bonne Nuit.
After everything we've been through,
I cannot describe how much I love you.
With you my life has been un-twirled,
As you are the light to my world.
I Love You Baby. |

Dear readers,
I'm officially on Twitter.
@tawanTEO
Still trying to figure out how it works.
Meanwhile, on the side note, should I reactivate my Friendster account? L0L
Maybe MySpace too.
I'll see to it.
Beginning to be fascinated with online gimmicks.
Kristinia DeBarge is just so awesome.
Listen to her new album, Exposed.
I need to study NOW.
What gives? |

Dear readers,
I'm looking forward to a list of things.
Well, come to think of it, life is all about anticipation.
Anticipation comes with expectations.
Expectation comes with hope.
And the list goes on.
Well, there is another angle to this motion.
Anticipation is only made possible with determination and effort.
More often than not, you can't anticipate something without doing anything about it.
For example, Singaporeans like to buy 4D.
And trust me, they go all out for that minute chance to even win 1 digit.
And so, I am determined to change my bio-clock system.
I woke up earlier than I usually do. (which happens to be around 2pm)
I'm putting an adequate amount of effort in building up my physique. (which until now, I see little improvement)
I'm (not really) putting enough effort in revising for my upcoming prelims papers. ( I don't see where this is going)
Oh well... and the list goes on.
But there are always some things which we cannot control.
You see, what I am trying to drive at is that the little things we do every day make us anticipate something special and meaningful to be bestowed upon us.
This is what makes life so interesting.
And I really need a haircut.
 OR 
Comments?
I'm looking forward to your letter and the day when you return to my side. |

Dear readers,
I need a haircut soon.
What should I get?
Oh God, it's Monday already?
I have math paper on Wednesday and geography paper on Thursday.
Yet I've done almost NOTHING.
I guess I'm done for this prelims.
=/
I can't wait for school to officially end.
Maybe it's the anticipation of staying at home every day that dulls me up.
I mean I don't see a point in taking those exams anyway.
(Though they taught me about connections to life but what gives?)
School has been such a pain in the neck.
Waking up early, sitting in classes/lectures lifelessly, chilling out in the cafeteria, mugging out with loads of assignments which I never intend to do, cramping content into my small brain in the last minute, dealing with school administrative matters, many more... Okay, in the nutshell, I hate routines and problematic issues.
Two months and I will be free (temporarily)!
Oh well, I've been observing around me.
Life is so superficial.
In order to have a good life, you have to first have a reputation, and with lots and lots of money. Looking good is one important factor in life. I guess I'm guilty of working for that.
But how many a times, people TRULY appreciate those things in the end?
There are so many questions in me, which I can't answer.
Yet I don't bother. Why?
Well it is so philosophical that life can become.
Face is just one of the facades we see every day.
But everyone is so uptight about it, including me.
Some ladies can't do without cosmetics.
Some men can't do without hair waxes.
But did anyone ever think of what they really cannot do without?
Some say love, whilst some say money.
But no one says they can't do without life.
Ironic huh? Haha.
Oh get over it already!
I miss my baby. |

Dear readers,
Heart Without A Home - Westlife
Girl I love to watch you
You're like candy to my eyes
Like a movie that you've seen
But you gotta watch just one more time
But that smile you're wearing
It's a beautiful disguise
It's just something you put on to hide the emptiness inside
And you seem so lonely
But you don't have to anymore..
[Chorus:]
If you're a heart without a home
Rebel without a cause
If you feel as though
You're always stranded on the shore
Like a thief in the night
Let me steal your heart away
Baby if for reasons, what you're looking for
I'll be yours
I'll be yours
You need a new sensation
One you never had before
I got a feeling if I gave you some
You'd probably want some more
Did you know that Baby
You're the bluebird in my sky
I only wanna make you happy cause
I love to see you fly
And if you feel lonely
You don't have to anymore
[Chorus]
I'll be yours, I'll be yours
I'll be the raft in the tide
I'll be yours
I'll be the truth in the light
And what's more
When no one opens the door
I'll be the hope that you're looking for
[Chorus]
I'll be yours...
Westlife was once my favourite boy band. Oh they still are. (:
I could still remember my 10th birthday, I received my first two music albums from my parents. Yeap you got them right, they were Westlife's first two albums - Westlife and Coast to Coast. When I inserted them into the discman (yes, discman was the iPod then) and plugged myself to the music, I fell in love. Their songs are so fantastic and romantic, a music to the heart, the mind and the soul. Their songs can be considered as household masterpieces. Well I believe that almost everyone knows the song My Love, Seasons In The Sun, and many more. They're indescribably brilliant.
School's been awesome despite the unsightly grades of mine. Oh well, I guess Parent-Teacher-Meeting session is inevitable now. =/
Countdown to A Level: 117 DAYS
I gotta catch my beauty sleep now. Bonne Nuit! (It means Good Night) *smiles*

Dear readers,
The week has been fruitful and simply awesome. I finished my second block test, lessons are officially started and the final few laps of Junior College has begun. Oh well, I didn't put in my whole for the second block test, I admit. However, I'm pretty sure I will pick up my pace during this last sprint to the finish line. Four more months to freedom! (:
My life has reached a turning point when my grandmother left us for good. The pain that I felt when death was announced, how lost I was when I see an empty room filled with her presence, how excruciating when I witnessed the coffin entered the crematorium. She had been a great woman in my life. I can still vividly remember the first day I saw her, she totally detested me. How I struggled within the family and how I went through so much with her, just made me feel worse at the thought of them. Whenever I hear her favourite song, nostalgia naturally overwhelmed me with tears welling up in my sockets. The emptiness that I feel without her presence cannot be described with verbal words. But one thing I can express with words for sure is, I loved her. Rest in peace, Ah Ma.
Okay, I'm back in school. Thinking back, I have been such a slacker since I entered SAJC. For my own future and own good, I've decided to pick up my pace and stay strong with the piling content which I lagged behind. Well, I have to make miracle happen now - I have to master ALL content within 3 months! =/
Today went to Sentosa with the CHIE-CHIEs, organised by Jasper! Well done and thanks so much LAO DA! :D Photos will be up soon (P.S. the Bird Park photos will be up soon too)
Baby, no matter what happens, I am here.
I don't have to say much 'cause you know it.
I love you.

| What Kind of Wine Are You? |
[Jun. 27th, 2009|09:56 pm] |
| You Are Merlot |  Smooth, confident, and popular - you're the type most likely to order wine for the whole group.
You seem to breeze through life on your intuition and wit. And no one seems to mind!
You're comfortable in any social situation you find yourself in, and you never feel outclassed.
And while you live a charmed life, you never let it go to your head. You are truly down to earth and a great friend.
Deep down you are: Balanced and mature
Your partying style: Surprisingly wild... when you let loose, you really let loose
Your company is enjoyed best with: Some greasy pizza |
