Peekchassssss

It's been so long, miss you sluts alottttttttttttttttttttttttttttt. THOSE DAYS WERE THE BOMB I SWEAR. After As after As, then we'll rule the world again.

DiEEE loRZXXzxzzxzx

I AM EXTREMELY DISTRACTED I DON'T KNOW WHY.

My brain just refuses to absorb any history shitzzzzzz HOWWWWWWWWWWWW

I'm like 'internet sucks tv sucks ewwwww they're disgusting inventions they should just like be obliterated nowwwwwwwwww' *must psycho myself must psycho myself*

But, eventually i lost this battle in the mind and succumbed to temptations by watching more telly and surfed the net!!!

Anyway, I hate Friendster, a social networking site which i vowed to never, ever sign in ever again.

I thought it was super history, and Facebook is not that interesting either. I refuse to be lured by you suckers who always proclaimed how sexciting they are(more to Facebook, in this age)

HELLO THE FACT IS, THEY DON'T.

But, maybe the pigs just learned the art of flying, and the ants have conquered the world or... maybe, I'm an epitome of Mr Contradictor.

I LOGGED INTO FACEBOOK AND FRIENDSTER AND EVEN UPLOADED PICTURES!!!

How turning 18 felt like.

So, on the 28th, i turned 18.

When i was still 16, maybe turning 18 would be one of the most exciting events ever, like "omg party party club club it's my day everyone so please rock the night" kinda thing.

But maybe i've grown up too fast, maybe such things no longer excite me anymore, maybe i just .... don't want to be 18 and see the world?

To me, turning 18 is a turning point in my life. Like, that's when you're beginning to see life as a whole?

But, I'm not prepared for that. Not at the very least.

I was rather apathetic on the 28th, indifferent or oblivious, even. At midnight, i'm like 'OMG I'M 18!!' - excited for a few moments then the mood died down.

And then, i forgot i'm 18.

The most ironical part of it all (as compared to what my view of 18 is when i was 16, that is), i wanted something simple.

Maria cherre isabel liwen matt vin ben and d will probably think i've gone berserk or something. But sometimes, the simplest things in life are the ones that make you the happiest, or so i think.

Those simple pleasures, they always leave us with an indelible mark, don't they? At least, it's true happiness.

Thanks to everyone for the flurry of messages and calls, it's really sweet. Although i didn't reply to everyone(cos my bill is the ultimate), please be assured that i really appreciate them. Love you guys!

-----------

On the 28th, i felt like there was something missing, something which i couldn't much explain nor understand. But, let's just leave it at that.

In the noon, i went out with Ming, the bestest friend on earth. We couldn't really do much because of time constraints.

But those few hours were really fun like i can really see her effort to make everything work out and all.

Ming : Thanks a lot bestie! Even though it may be short and all, every minute counts right? And it was lovely. Thanks for making me feel like it's really my day and i deserve to have a kickass time every hour, every minute, every second. The laughters we had are always good for the abs because they're so hard and loud and all the good things combined into one HAHA. Thanks for everything! We had a great time yo, love you ttm!

After which, i had to rush back to change because i was meeting Jerm, Sal and Yuan for dinner.

And goodness, i was late for like close to an hour and a half! Big, big apologies to jerm and yuan who did not complain a single bit! Sweet.

We went Italian at Da Paolo for dinner at Ann Siang Hill. A nice setting with a nice decor. The food was nice and the service was great. (:

Sal : Hey gem! You've always been there, never once gone. Never once stingy with your advices, never once saying no to my requests, never once left me in the lurch. You're one of my v v v true friends and you know how much i love you and your beautiful heart. Thanks for being you all the time, thanks for hearing me out, thanks for listening to my whims and fancies, thanks for standing by me, thanks for everything!! Love you ttm! (:

Jerm : The entry you dedicated to me on your blog was sooooooo sweet, i swear i had goosebumps! Hahaha. Awww, you're an excellent friend too! We've gone through a lot together yes? I guess those quarrels we had were a blessing in disguise. Look at how far we've come together! Yes, i agree we must have more 'mental' moments(you get what i mean heehee). Thanks for everything babe and you know i love you! (:

Yuan : Yo my man! Did you know that i was damn touched by your message? I went like awwwwwwwww for the longest time. Hahaha. I'll remember that for life man. We should hang out more, it's fun having you around. Anyway, i really love your heart, it's really nice and sincere, really. Anyway, how was your party with Oprah(inside joke) HAHA. Meet you really soon yo, take care and love you! (:

Love you guys times 10 to the power of 99.

rahhhhhh

I'm supposed to blog about www and my bd dinner but im v v v v lazy anyway i haven't receive the peekchas so jerm and sal please do the honour thanks a million.

I'M DISTRAUGHT.

Was online from like 2 plus till now and i only read a few pages of Newsweek and nothing else!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*traumatised*

PRELIMS LIKE NEXT NEXT WEEK omg times flies like how phelps swim okay maybe 7894324 times faster.

ANYWAY I'M DAMN DAMN SCARED FOR LIKE PRELIMS AND A LEVELS AND LIFE KTHXBYE.

Omg i think history will totally pawn me like rahhhhh i hate historyyyyyyyyy but DO I HAVE A CHOICE?

A BIG FAT NO.

I can't focus im distracted by i-don't-know-what this is super wrong timing. This cannot happen. This cannot happen. I don't like what i'm doing. I hate to study.

But for the sake of a better world and like a better life, i'll try.

--------

Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying Omg i love studying

I SHALL CHANT THIS MAGICAL WORDS FROM NOW TILL END OF A'S.

I love my God.

I think in life, it's best to just let go, and not to expect anything. Not to entirely expect nothing, but definitely to expect something of relatively lower status/standards/level/you get what i mean.

Being paranoid, maybe OCD is not cool. Extremely not cool.

I remembered how i was told that i should just "Chill out; take things easy; you lead a tiring life".

That's gonna be history.

I've realised that i tend to let the unnecessary bother me, those little things like 'Omg my hair is damn ugly today okay my mood is spoilt for the whole of today, rah no confidence ttm" kinda thing.

But slowly, i'm beginning to further realise that hey it's not that important afterall.

Looks - temporary.

A good Heart - forever.

-----------

And to be fraught with high expectations of yourself get really tiring and exhausting. Like "I don't care i must get into that faculty, with this grade and only this no concessions at all!".

This cycle is never-ending and it traps you inside; you become more petty, less sensitive, grouchy - the world only revolves around you and only you.

Your soul is chipped away, disintegrating until there’s nothing left - in Adrian Tan's words.

I stumbled upon an article which somehow, made my life much easier. I particularly love the part when he endorsed this notion, "Don't expect anything ..... just live."

It's really good, but it's long tsktsk. If you yearn to be intellectual(everyone is moving up, you should too!), read this!

Don't simply glance through(*cough cough*), it has so much to offer.

By Adrian Tan, taken from mr wang says so

I must say thank you to the faculty and staff of the Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information for inviting me to give your convocation address. It’s a wonderful honour and a privilege for me to speak here for ten minutes without fear of contradiction, defamation or retaliation.

I say this as a Singaporean and more so as a husband.

My wife is a wonderful person and perfect in every way except one. She is the editor of a magazine. She corrects people for a living. She has honed her expert skills over a quarter of a century, mostly by practising at home during conversations between her and me.

On the other hand, I am a litigator. Essentially, I spend my day telling people how wrong they are. I make my living being disagreeable.

Nevertheless, there is perfect harmony in our matrimonial home. That is because when an editor and a litigator have an argument, the one who triumphs is always the wife.

And so I want to start by giving one piece of advice to the men: when you’ve already won her heart, you don’t need to win every argument.

Marriage is considered one milestone of life. Some of you may already be married. Some of you may never be married. Some of you will be married. Some of you will enjoy the experience so much, you will be married many, many times. Good for you.

The next big milestone in your life is today: your graduation. The end of education. You’re done learning.

You’ve probably been told the big lie that “Learning is a lifelong process” and that therefore you will continue studying and taking masters’ degrees and doctorates and professorships and so on.

You know the sort of people who tell you that? Teachers. Don’t you think there is some measure of conflict of interest? They are in the business of learning, after all. Where would they be without you? They need you to be repeat customers.

The good news is that they’re wrong.

The bad news is that you don’t need further education because your entire life is over. It is gone. That may come as a shock to some of you. You’re in your teens or early twenties. People may tell you that you will live to be 70, 80, 90 years old. That is your life expectancy.

I love that term: life expectancy. We all understand the term to mean the average life span of a group of people. But I’m here to talk about a bigger idea, which is what you expect from your life.

You may be very happy to know that Singapore is currently ranked as the country with the third highest life expectancy. We are behind Andorra and Japan, and tied with San Marino. It seems quite clear why people in those countries, and ours, live so long. We share one thing in common: our football teams are all hopeless.

There’s very little danger of any of our citizens having their pulses raised by watching us play in the World Cup. Spectators are more likely to be lulled into a gentle and restful nap.

Singaporeans have a life expectancy of 81.8 years. Singapore men live to an average of 79.21 years, while Singapore women live more than five years longer, probably to take into account the additional time they need to spend in the bathroom.

So here you are, in your twenties, thinking that you’ll have another 40 years to go. Four decades in which to live long and prosper.

Bad news. Read the papers. There are people dropping dead when they’re 50, 40, 30 years old.

Or quite possibly just after finishing their convocation. They would be very disappointed that they didn’t meet their life expectancy.

I’m here to tell you this. Forget about your life expectancy.

After all, it’s calculated based on an average. And you never, ever want to expect being average.

Revisit those expectations. You might be looking forward to working, falling in love, marrying, raising a family. You are told that, as graduates, you should expect to find a job paying so much, where your hours are so much, where your responsibilities are so much.

That is what is expected of you. And if you live up to it, it will be an awful waste.

If you expect that, you will be limiting yourself. You will be living your life according to boundaries set by average people. I have nothing against average people. But no one should aspire to be them. And you don’t need years of education by the best minds in Singapore to prepare you to be average.

What you should prepare for is mess. Life’s a mess. You are not entitled to expect anything from it. Life is not fair. Everything does not balance out in the end. Life happens, and you have no control over it. Good and bad things happen to you day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment. Your degree is a poor armour against fate.

Don’t expect anything. Erase all life expectancies. Just live. Your life is over as of today.


At this point in time, you have grown as tall as you will ever be, you are physically the fittest you will ever be in your entire life and you are probably looking the best that you will ever look. This is as good as it gets. It is all downhill from here. Or up. No one knows.

What does this mean for you? It is good that your life is over.

Since your life is over, you are free. Let me tell you the many wonderful things that you can do when you are free.

The most important is this: do not work.

Work is anything that you are compelled to do. By its very nature, it is undesirable.

Work kills. The Japanese have a term “Karoshi”, which means death from overwork. That’s the most dramatic form of how work can kill. But it can also kill you in more subtle ways. If you work, then day by day, bit by bit, your soul is chipped away, disintegrating until there’s nothing left. A rock has been ground into sand and dust.

There’s a common misconception that work is necessary. You will meet people working at miserable jobs. They tell you they are “making a living”. No, they’re not. They’re dying, frittering away their fast-extinguishing lives doing things which are, at best, meaningless and, at worst, harmful.

People will tell you that work ennobles you, that work lends you a certain dignity. Work makes you free. The slogan "Arbeit macht frei" was placed at the entrances to a number of Nazi concentration camps. Utter nonsense.

Do not waste the vast majority of your life doing something you hate so that you can spend the small remainder sliver of your life in modest comfort. You may never reach that end anyway.

Resist the temptation to get a job. Instead, play. Find something you enjoy doing. Do it. Over and over again. You will become good at it for two reasons: you like it, and you do it often. Soon, that will have value in itself.

I like arguing, and I love language. So, I became a litigator. I enjoy it and I would do it for free. If I didn’t do that, I would’ve been in some other type of work that still involved writing fiction – probably a sports journalist.

So what should you do? You will find your own niche. I don’t imagine you will need to look very hard. By this time in your life, you will have a very good idea of what you will want to do. In fact, I’ll go further and say the ideal situation would be that you will not be able to stop yourself pursuing your passions. By this time you should know what your obsessions are. If you enjoy showing off your knowledge and feeling superior, you might become a teacher.

Find that pursuit that will energise you, consume you, become an obsession. Each day, you must rise with a restless enthusiasm. If you don’t, you are working.

Most of you will end up in activities which involve communication. To those of you I have a second message: be wary of the truth. I’m not asking you to speak it, or write it, for there are times when it is dangerous or impossible to do those things. The truth has a great capacity to offend and injure, and you will find that the closer you are to someone, the more care you must take to disguise or even conceal the truth.

Often, there is great virtue in being evasive, or equivocating. There is also great skill. Any child can blurt out the truth, without thought to the consequences. It takes great maturity to appreciate the value of silence.

In order to be wary of the truth, you must first know it. That requires great frankness to yourself. Never fool the person in the mirror.

I have told you that your life is over, that you should not work, and that you should avoid telling the truth. I now say this to you: be hated.

It’s not as easy as it sounds. Do you know anyone who hates you? Yet every great figure who has contributed to the human race has been hated, not just by one person, but often by a great many. That hatred is so strong it has caused those great figures to be shunned, abused, murdered and in one famous instance, nailed to a cross.

One does not have to be evil to be hated. In fact, it’s often the case that one is hated precisely because one is trying to do right by one’s own convictions. It is far too easy to be liked, one merely has to be accommodating and hold no strong convictions. Then one will gravitate towards the centre and settle into the average. That cannot be your role.

There are a great many bad people in the world, and if you are not offending them, you must be bad yourself. Popularity is a sure sign that you are doing something wrong.

The other side of the coin is this: fall in love.

I didn’t say “be loved”. That requires too much compromise. If one changes one’s looks, personality and values, one can be loved by anyone.

Rather, I exhort you to love another human being. It may seem odd for me to tell you this. You may expect it to happen naturally, without deliberation. That is false. Modern society is anti-love. We’ve taken a microscope to everyone to bring out their flaws and shortcomings.

It's far easier to find a reason not to love someone, than otherwise. Rejection requires only one reason. Love requires complete acceptance. It is hard work – the only kind of work that I find palatable.

Loving someone has great benefits. There is admiration, learning, attraction and something which, for the want of a better word, we call happiness. In loving someone, we become inspired to better ourselves in every way. We learn the truth worthlessness of material things. We celebrate being human. Loving is good for the soul.

Loving someone is therefore very important, and it is also important to choose the right person. Despite popular culture, love doesn’t happen by chance, at first sight, across a crowded dance floor. It grows slowly, sinking roots first before branching and blossoming. It is not a silly weed, but a mighty tree that weathers every storm.

You will find, that when you have someone to love, that the face is less important than the brain, and the body is less important than the heart.

You will also find that it is no great tragedy if your love is not reciprocated. You are not doing it to be loved back. Its value is to inspire you.

Finally, you will find that there is no half-measure when it comes to loving someone. You either don’t, or you do with every cell in your body, completely and utterly, without reservation or apology. It consumes you, and you are reborn, all the better for it.

Don’t work. Avoid telling the truth. Be hated. Love someone.You’re going to have a busy life. Thank goodness there’s no life expectancy.

Can i?

This is my fifth entry for the day - but it'll be the first that you see because i can't seem to publish the other four. Lack of courage? That's bull.

I'm stunned. It's the seventh hour i'm online doing nothing but the plain ol' youtube vids and bloghopping. Excuse me sir, prelims less than a month and As so near so near so near.

My mind's in a whirl and i really can't think of anything to write about.

Goodbye.

it was there
with presence, aura

and security

but slowly, it diminishes

away from the sideline
and eventually reduced to

a light speck of dust

why oh why?

TRANSITON ELEMENTS NOWWWWWWWWWWW

It scares me how everything changes, and can change in a split second - unsconsciously.

Like how everything built from scratch can lose it's raw, beautiful essence in that moment of folly. Then what about proclamations which go along the line of 'Forever and ever'?

This wave of turbulence is plenty, and in my opinion, unwarranted.

I've no idea why i'm writing about this cos i don't think i'm encroached in this situation. But the fragility is conspicuous - it overwhelms me(more to horror, actually).

Like it just needs one action, one word(maybe one string of words), one phrase, one sentence - just a 'little' effort; and things might never be the same anymore.

How delicate!

Maybe it's exaggerated but still..... Nothing's certain in life, and we are sure of that. Unless you're in denial then perhaps, you should get out of your small little world.

-----

Sometimes i should really chill out and not think of small little things which are so trivial and useless - but will undoubtedly affect me in more ways than one.

I've no slightest idea why such banal things get to me, but it's downright preposterous to be affected; sorry, but i just can't help it.

Maybe this is one of the reasons why good friends who really understand me often complain of how taxing and tiring my life is. Then what, see a shrink?

Hello, I'm not insane.

Rahh whatever i shall stop online shopping and go read transition elements sianzzzzz. Online shopping for guys is bleargh. I may be squealing in excitement one moment but next, disappointment sets in because they just happen to not have my sizes. (esp for those which i really like)

The happiness is super short-lived, anti-climax ttm

Round and round and round; then back to square one.



This web, this deadly cocoon; they're victorious.

They're laughing away, cackling, guffawing... Can you hear them? They're ... deafening.

Now, here they come again. Still, you can't run away - the door's locked and there's no key.

You scream; but the echoes simply drown your soul, eating every bit and pieces of your flesh.

They're condescending; they rob you of your worth, your dignity and your values.

They're vicious, they kill you with a series of events - grip you by the shoulder, strangle you ruthlessly and assail you with a gun at a point when you're most vulnerable. Then...

Poom, you're dead - like the wind, silently gone without a trace nor a sign.

"Wait, there's a sun at the far end!" You exclaimed.

Oh, 'hope' you mean?

Kid, don't be fooled.

Hope - an elusive, evasive, fleeting entity.

Don't even depend on it.

If you do, you'll never survive.

Time still exists.

I thought the national day celebration in school was great. My class really bonded and it's the first time i really felt patriotic and proud of Singapore, singing along to ndp songs which are actually awesome!

After that, jack stef law kester wei song and i crashed to jovan's house for a karaoke session. I had a blast and it was great, like i'm sure the residents were in for a v v therapeutic treat with our fantabulous vocal chords which was showcased by the clamorous volume of the audio system HAHAHA

Thank God for you guys who make school so much better, thanks a zillion!

There's actually a Contemporary Dance Workshop at the Esplanade today but i can't attend as there was chem mock how disappointing.

Anyway, today was cool because we basically went around the school for a recruitment drive - our friends and classmates were the victims :D

But most of them were so supportive, including Mdm Yaty who even believed me when i said it was sponsored by the Lee Foundation. HAHAHA not to that extent man, but just you wait - one day, one day.

Wait for me.

IT'S GONNA BE FOUR and i just can't sleep.

And, i should like totally make full use of this opportunity and mug like there's no tomorrow cos everyone's doing so. But, i can't seem to start serious business now.

Argh whatever.

I'm like bloghopping and watching youtube and drinking Campbell's soup - enjoying simple pleasures of life, yet again.

But they're downright banned and forbidden at this 'crunch period'.

Okay whatever to this again.

Anyway thank God i've found this after so long!



Love love love this sooooooo much.

It's incredibly beautiful, they're superbly amazing and it further ignites my passion for contemporary dance.

Oh man, i'll die a v v v v happy person if i'll ever dance a contemporary piece by Mia Michaels.

She's just Phenomenal.

The highs and lows.

:DDD

I'm happy cos i've just completed writing a history essay yayness the feeling is fantabulous.

It's primarily because it's the first essay i've written(besides essays for exams) and yeah, cos Augustine's lackadaisical attitude totally blew my hist grades away(NO HOMEWORK FOR THE PAST 1 AND A HALF YEAR) and i HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

So, this essay shall be the start of a turning point; a key to awesome grades for history hopefully man (:

And it's kinda late but i'm feeling high and active cos i took a 3-hour long nap in the evening i feel like prancing around but okay nvm.

----------------------

Swimming on friday was great although i didn't exactly swim like 20 laps or whatever. It was more to like thinking of dance steps in the pool for synchronise swimming w leah hahaha.

Zonked out on the way back and it was late cos 171 takes forever to come, slept super unglamly in the bus and i think i saw justin but i totally ignored him cos i have no energy to say hi, sorry!

Went to sentosa with jermaineee on sat! I deliberately delayed the time cos i hate the sun and i'm sure the sun hates me too and i think applying sunblock doesn't really help, it's best to abstain from it right?

Cos i hate my skin colour, i think it's a bit burnt. But it feels good when i'm assured by people around me that it's nice and i should maintain it. Really meh?

Any-o-way, we arrived around evening and the sun's almost gone awesometastic.

It was a really fulfilling time spent. Away from the hustle-bustle and the crazy demands of the world outside, and just simply immerse ourselves with the tranquility and calmness around us.

I think jerm is a v v v good friend who would really listen and at the same time, understands and gives advices. You're much loved! (:

Oh and jerm put on braces!


In the bus, which was surprisingly empty. But there was an influx of really really hot people on that day in the beach! Such great timing! HAHA.



Anyway, there was this really weird and crazy-looking man who was playing golf on the sand! Lunatic, no?



I love this man. Nature shots are always beautiful. God's creations are breathtaking.




Somewhere around Vivo. Anyway i hate Vivo, don't ask me why.



Didn't really take many pictures cos i feel uglayeee on that day. Anyway jerm, I can't wait for baking with the others this friday! I hope there's no last-minute cancellation, though (:

Stef, ming and i. Love this shot yo, taken during CIP at Teen Challenge.



Anyway school today was damn fun cos i sorta influenced my classmates to like do contemp dance and ming, ciqin and i totally did just that during our break.

V v v fun, we really gave it our all; those sweats, perspirations, and out-of-breath moments. Our themes damn classic ttm.

Actually leah and i did just that too on friday during our break. It was funnier cos like first we acted out a scene like she was rapunzel, i was the prince and stef was the witch HAHA.

Then it got boring.

So, we did some modelling shit which was super funny yet embarrassing cos i think Mdm Yaty saw me doing my thing omg throw face ttm. I totally hid under a table oh ma gawdz.

After that, we danced to any random songs that others were playing which was super hardcore cos there was this incident where we were dancing on air then we bumped onto each other and my forehead got scratched while her leg was injured. HAHAHA.

Omg my classmates rock ttm, they keep me going man. (:

But it's like everyone's super geared up now.

Rahh what's new?

How meaningless and simplistic the singaporean jc kid lives his life at eighteen where his main worry in life is whether or not an A appears on his report card ):

Just because it all boils down to a cert in which your entire future is judged upon.
