another day has passed. boring day i suppose. i rested the whole day. probably catching up on lost sleep. the gunbound server is still down. so no games for another day.

You are the epitomy of what every man should be. What sets you apart from the other men of rank and nobility is you combine every best quality they possess into one. You are skilled, motivated, ambitious, filled with a sense of purpose and morality. You know when to relax and have fun and when to be serious and courageous. You seek peace, prosperity and love in your life, and as a ruler, you seek it for your kingdom. Others follow you because of your ability to move them, and because you earned their respect. You are admired, even envied, but above all else, greatly loved.
A test of patience

the title of this post, was inspired by geri's blog name. patience is what many of us lack. patience is what many of us forgot. patience brings many things together. love, peace, joy, happiness, success.

i have witness so much, that i don't even know where to start to comprehend, to understand. i'm confused by this dilemma, but excited, encourage and empowered by all this. contradicting feelings and thoughts. am i too sensitive? am i over-reacting? i'm not too sure, but its all good i guess.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

loving someone can be so hard. i'm tired of it already. its torturous and crazy. its fantastic its overwhelming. the dream seems to be over and i have lost the strength to carry on. but a small faith in love, keeps me going on, turning darkness into light. i see more than what is at hand. its the giving that fulfils faith and keeps it going. its the loving that keeps the world moving. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~

every step of the way, every corner of your journey, there is a test waiting. i'm faced with problems just as usual. wonder how to solve it? dunno man. i think probably its a good idea to forget all about it and take things one step at a time? decisions are hard to make.
woke up early today. never had a better sleep than yesterday nite. was thinking all morning about stuff. realised that i came out of the camp better than i was when i went in.

heard from zyan about the stuff going on in our blogs recently. guess that some pple just cannot stop themselves from making slanderous and sleazy remarks about others. guess they have that kind of urges. funny how they can make comments about others and yet when they are commented upon, they make a big hoo haaa. contradictions? or plain alter ego?

we live in a world where there are many pple. i guess we all need to be alittle tolerant and alittle tactful about others each time we do or say things.
~~~~~~~~~~~~

back to my own feelings. a peaceful one, harmoniously intertwined with nature. remembering the night when the creatures of the wild sung for me as i stood out under the bright moon ray, a thousand stars shining down upon me and the icy cold breeze that blew onto me. i never felt warmth the way i felt that night though it was freezing cold in the hills.

kinda feeling happy.

OCF Camp:

Day 1-
arrived early in the morning at yarragon township. before heading off into the wilderness of the camp centre, Catherine's Creek Camp. however didnt had the chance to try out the quiche that geri introduced.

on the way to the venue, i have already met a few new friends and of course meeting up with pple i already knew. surprise to find joewiz there with her friend too. met a few new friends, cheryl, emily, nick, joon leong, zi li, maureen, stacia, charmane, derrick, kenneth and kelvin.

was put together with my cellgroup, DESTINATUS, in latin would mean, to be resolute, firm, determined, with one's mind made up. the most important thing was the sermons preached by Mark a pastor. though he was from a different denomination from the one i believed, it was the insight of his that opened my perspectives.

signposts are guiding signs, and the camp gave me the signs of my journey.


Day 2-
met more of the pple over time, jason, peggen, phoebe, samantha, anthony, nigel, jacob, wai ming, gani, jane. funny how sometimes you get to know pple in the shortest of time but felt like you've known them for so long?

had alot of great bonding sessions with my own cellgroup. definitely gained a huge insight from them. wonderful pple i tell you.

Day 3-
its time to say goodbye already. but the experience i took away from the teachings will stick with me for life. it has given me directions. going to miss the great pple i have met. some i would not meet ever again. probably even if we met on the streets, we would not recognise each other. so i wish that the lord on this night you will bless and protect all my friends, fellow brothers and sisters, in their journey, so that in time they will say that "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, i have kept the faith."

today ...was the last radio station broadcast for sarah one of our radio DJs...the semester is also at its close. everyone is leaving, leaving me all alone here in gippy. kinda sad and lonely. but i guess its time for me to reflect and look forward to the new semester with zest and renewed enlightenment? kekeke

so i did mention i will do certain things during my holidays...and one of the things will be physical workout. currently already on a good jogging schedule to rebuild the lost stamina. so we will see what goes after that.

now for this weekend...study study study for my final exam. hope to do well for this semester. coz its been quite tough. guess i will leave it all up to fate. lol...yeah right... =P
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~






have stopped for awhile in looking at world affairs coz of personal problems and stuff...but i guess i'm getting over it and really wanna make an effort to understand and to help those who needs help. the above numbers of refugees is quite alarming. considering we have advanced as a society to where life is almost good. but yet there are people still behind us. i'm sure we all know the world and life is unfair. but if all of us help from the top down, those left behind wont be so far away. maybe its time we all really go and think about this. for me i know i would help. how about you?
wokie...today had dinner with sarah and gang from the radio station...its sort of a farewell dinner for her...

woah its already 3am here...errr didnt see the time...gotta go sleep liaoz...chaoz

Wednesday, June 16, 2004

wokie...today, 2 of my buddies finished their exams...now only left yan yan and me self got our final papers..but hers is tomolo, mine's on the 22nd... kinda late...yupz...its all good...2nd semester starting soon already...after that...wonder what isit going to be like... =)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

how much can one person miss another person? not sure... but for me i'm kinda falling sick over it...fever is on and off currently...or was it just being too heaty??? anyways have to drink more water to cool it off...

right now only got fatso and orion to keep me company...one is a teddy bear the other a small little dog...both are cute stuff toys...lol

okok not forgetting my lovely housemates...who will soon be off for their respective holidays, leaving me all alone in the house till the 25th or 26th of june...


so wat do you do when you are feeling alittle down and alittle worn out by all the studying? I GO PLAY GUNBOUND! hahaha

Monday, June 14, 2004

education was once given to those who wants it. its free.
now...education is only given to those are able to afford it and lucky enough to get it. its a widespread phenomena.

i'm sadly one of those who are affected by this stupid thing. wanna get an education but can only barely afford it. so then how?? try my best lor... wat to do. no basic degree...no work...no career...no future...lol...

life is scary from now on. should i make decisions to work once i graduate at the end of the year? or should i continue to work whilst studying?

sometimes when you are pushed to the very edge. we have to be creative and prevail. so its time for me to save money like mad (to lessen the burden of my parents) and probably hope for a lucky break or chance or something.

nowadays people must be saying "SHOW ME THE MONEY!"

Finally i have finish my assignment and handed it in. Good. Now for the next step. Revision for my final paper.... =(

but right now...i need some sleep.
going to start my training regime once i wake up.
most likely start with evening jogs everyday and alittle bit of home training with the push ups and sit ups. gotta get in shape and build on bulk...if not leh someone say i skinny boy...kekekeke

Sunday, June 13, 2004











ok there you have it...another few more movies i hope to catch soon.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

errr this is bad news...i'm having fever...dun feel well at all last night...took a early night ...now i'm alot better...drank cool water like crazy to keep the temp down...i think i can start bouncing around again hahahaha. =P

miss my family. miss my len len. miss my friends...hahahaha damnit.

Saturday, June 12, 2004

today was a day in which i said goodbye for now, to friends who are leaving gippy. either on holidays or going back to their home country for good. so many years have gone, so many months, so many weeks, so many days, so many hours, so many minutes and so many seconds have slowly passed.

right now i gotta snap out of all this goodbyes, and struggle to finish my assignment! gotta finish it up by tonite. hahaha

Friday, June 11, 2004





thats the mosaic picture of me over the past 2 years whilst in gippy. its been a long time and journey for me. its kinda bittersweet feeling i must say. time passed so fast and quick, it seem to be just yesterday when i first arrive. i may not see the sun tomorrow in gippy but i do not regret cause i have seen the sun today. somehow i have a heavy heart today, the feeling is making me depress and unhappy. i'm crying out loud.

i have seen so much in my 2 years here. it frightens me. i'm in shock. i sometimes do wonder how did i do it? i'm all alone in this. not the being of alone. but just alone in this feeling i guess.

"i want to be with you, but you give me answers that are otherwise.", "time is precious and its slipping away i want to be with you, to know you more.", "i just wanna say i love you wanna spend time with you alone."", "tears are dropping and i can't wipe it away, what can i do?"


holidays are nearing...everyone is heading off to somewhere. i'm all alone in the house soon. its going to be lonely times...but lets see how i can spend it in the best way.

i'm probably going to change the pic of the day every 2 to 3 days...
i'm probably going to explore areas around here by foot...
i'm going to read up on a book which i found interesting...

Thursday, June 10, 2004

ok after long and extended research, trials and errors...i finally got the blog advertisement away and hiding...but its not discrediting them all wat...just tat i wanna have my blog really advertisement free. this is the first of many changes coming along the way...

time now is 720pm...made a few changes to the last template...the alignment for the blog has been corrected to this one now...some major improvements i made... haha a breakthrough for me...someone who has not done coding b4... =)

Wednesday, June 09, 2004






went around surfing my best buddy's blog. and saw this pic posted on his site...goodness i tell you...haha i think the only ones who can afford it are the billionaires...the millionaires will surely go bankrupt...and the rest of us ...just drop that idea of a haircut

Tuesday, June 08, 2004

Zzzzzzzz....

Monday, June 07, 2004

just finish a exam paper today...what a relief and exhaustive day it was. its as though my whole body got drained off my "petrol" and the batteries just went dead...hahaha...

ok sunday i went to church expecting a teary and happy event coz...our dear geri a.k.a dajie is attending her last church service in Gippy. i had to make that trip...something told me to. i'm glad i did and felt so happy about it. anyway here is my prayer to you geri:

"Dear Lord, i thank you for moment you gave, for letting us know geraldine our dearest sister. Time have passed so quickly, in the blink of an eye over 2 years has withered and gone. But her presence here in this small community has been a shining one. Through her you've touched many hearts and work many wonders. Through her, you guided the rest of us through our ups and downs. Her guidance has been precious and her presence irreplaceable. Now the time has come for her to leave us here in Gippy. You may have closed this chapter of her life she cherished so much. But another door has been opened for her and is right there waiting for her. Another chapter of her life to be written another moment you gave her. I pray to you Lord that you will continue to guide and protect Geraldine. Let her be your shining beacon in this world in her own right and continue to do good in your most precious name."

dajie...if you read this...this is my way of thanking you for all the times we all shared, though this journey here is at its end for you, the memories will last and its just the beginning. i'm sure alot of us will miss you dearly here. God Bless you.
