Another week gone by. And loads to tell of.
Corrinne May concert! Okay I went for it last week monday (hell ages ago yes) but yeah it still remains ever so strikingly nice in my mind. The concert was LOVE. She sang many many songs (including three unreleased ones which are so so nice!) and yeah every single one of them was played on the piano with a quartet accompaniment. Seriously i'd die for a bit of musical blood in me. Sigh haha I want to learn piano!
But anyway point proven. Corrinne May is seriously the best and will remain the best :D Her lyrics bring herself to the edge, replacing the funky wacky tunes of most singers who just slap lame lyrics into their songs. Plus her piano-playing is undeniably undisputed. Her songs just appeal so much to everyone, each one applying to different situations in everyones' lives. We can all relate to them so well. As we sing along we sit mesmerized at the wonder in each song, memories carry us back all the way to those times too. And it makes it all worthwhile.
After the concert I got up to my feet and SPED SPED SPED from the third floor all the way to the ground floor! And was one of the first few in line for the autograph session HAHA. Then I got her to sign my file and a poster! And best of all I got myself a photo. This goes a long way man.
Funkiness. Well that was 13th Feb monday.
The rest of the days proved to be worse than hell as I scrambled for precious time everyday to do homework and study. Simply I can say, PI is really hell! But in the end it really paid off when the backdrop lasted minutes off an hour for the ceremony after we worked on it for close to three days straight, each leaving sch at ten plus at night. Hahaha just SO WORTH IT.
Am I ready for PI'07? WELL I'M GAME HAHAHA.
Over the war and anguish of these two weeks I like to thank everyone who has supported me in any way. You guys will know who you are. And yes thanks so much :D
Plus! On thursday after PI i rushed to RJC for the 400m finals! And YES I GOT A SILVER YAYNESS. 59 secs. ( sorry if i said it was 57 secs; the report came out otherwise). This coming wednesday shall be 200m and 800m finals! I wanna run for the love of the run man. :D
Looking at the other side of things MY WORK IS SNOWBALLING AHHH.
Plus it would help if this screwed mind of mine stops thinking for once. Give me a break it's been a torture going through everything again and again everyday for utterly no reason. It doesn't only cause me pain but those around me as well and you all probably know that. Anyway that proves I need my mental strength.
For things which I want to leave behind and forget, looks like it's still a long way to go but I know the task lies at hand in fighting against myself in this personal mind-war. It's true I all rubbish sometimes but deep down im struggling against all odds to overcome and to restack the odds for myself.
Life is confusing. (As to why there's a crapload of tests this coming week)

Haha.
I've just got back from school yay.
I'm tired, really tired to the end of my tether. And I want to sleep but I can't. I have to go on.
Listening to walter's album now and I really think I should put my writing and feelings to good use and sound the world with things they want to say but they daren't.
Sorry for not blogging last week. I promise I'll give a good post by the end of this week. Haha.
Thanks so much walter. You've been a great friend all throughout from the start. I really treasure all the help you've provided.
And for those who really feel I'm out there too far and I'm gonna make myself sorry, I'm sorry but I'm going further.
Who's with me?
Yawn. Bye.

Another week another week gone!
Things have been taking on a mortifying toll lately. Pressure really crumbled me the first few days and I went frantic over just about anything I had to do and had not done. But moving over into the late week I got a little better. Service was great yesterday so wonderful! And yeah I'm just sitting here, refreshed and awaiting the new week ahead.
Say, I'm really fighting to survive every week. What has this world come to! Days where time is of the pure essence and I'D DIE FOR AN EXTRA ONE OR TWO HOURS EVERYDAY. Oh well I guess it's again, the stress coming to me. I gotta shake it off and take things calm, all over again, every single week.
Then again this frantic rush everyday helps a little. Particularly in a way that I can now see who are on my side in this process of survival. It comes to a point when many people around you who know how occupied you are start to say that you're an idiot and you're crazy and you're gonna die one day definitely. And also to a point when people who DON'T know how occupied you are start teasing you and walking all over you because they have the time to play and enjoy leisure time while you don't.
Either way, it's definitely not helping me and I gladly say I don't need such words to wear me down. I'm soaring high and I will make it; Where it will take me I'm unsure but I know I'm going somewhere few would want to go and it's actually what appeals to my soul. To find that nesting comfort within unknown paths are near impossible but I'll continue to find that checkpoint. To move on within and further, we plunge deeper.
I stand on the sky, looking around me
of strained paces and painted faces
I choose none;
I choose to go on searching
for the purpose which is mine,
and for the truth in help and light within.
I plunge deeper I soar higher;
with a tainted soul due to die.
But from the midsts I shall draw out
The path of my own light.
Alas, Corrinne May's concert is tomorrow. Life will be beautiful.

Today just seems so slow-moving. Yeah I woke up at 7 at kept stoning whilst in the midsts of homework. Now it's a beautiful 4 o'clock in the afternoon! And yes thankfully, this week's worth of work and tasks are more or less done.
It's pretty silly don't you think. Sticking to a do-or-die life and trying to survive life every week, well I guess I don't really have much choice as a person who wants to sit himself into the midsts of society comfortably and stably. The stress is never erasable but I guess there's the challenge in every week itself to remain at peace! Yes totally.
There are thoughts about leading a life of reflection, a life of happy paths and happy events which all come down to a warm and touching ending. But I guess only truly lucky people who've just been fortunate enough to be picked from the masses can experience such a wonderful life. Perhaps it's their choices, perhaps it's just meant to be, but can we (as we deem ourselves minors) live to see ourselves in that one day?
I believe we aren't that minor and we definitely aren't living it miserably haha. Through everyday life we face the wonders of happiness and confidence; we also suffer through the pain of sorrow and stress. At times we can just do nothing but collapse and cry, at times we are brought onto such a high that it brings us past our imaginable limits of happiness, and we feel truly thankful for being so blessed.
Facing myself now as a fresh fifteen year old with still a long path ahead of him, there's undeniably still a very very very long way to the end and yeah we don't even need to consider the end now. Right now living to what we believe to be worth is what we have to do, and from thus we search ourselves, identity our passions and locate our place of belongings. Through and through we crumble, we crack but we shall stand up, we shall piece back.
Anyway, haha.
Who's up for the Corrinne May unplugged concert the following monday! It will certainly be a night of warmth, of understand and of solace. Corrinne for president!

It's been another week.
CNY was rather quiet, guessed I slept too much haha. I let myself go and all the fatigue came down on me so yeah that's one sad thing. All the fun ended on tuesday.
Wednesday. All the unrelieved pressure came down real hard and I had to take it calmly. Through those 3 days I prevailed with a few hiccups and yeah everything turned out fine after all haha. Thanks a lot to those who've helped me go over them and everything. Thanks so much.
Well life does have its beauties and downsides, and we do learn everyday to accept things for what they are, and yeah it gets calm when we're fine (:
One last thing - I've changed my phone! RAZR V3I :D
So everyone please give me your number cos I lost a few in the process. Thanks!
Life is good!
