wooo... started my gym session today.
that time i passed by the gym with my bro, we were literally drooling over the new machines inside. chio ~ . hahahaz.. seeing the machines, suddenly a pang of guilt flooded over me. why did i stop? why! why! so, today was my first session back; missed the sound of the treadmill, the familiar smell of sweat and the way my mind pumped my legs to keep going faster. hahahahaahz..

time flies. now its already sat and its the 2nd last day of my beloved hols. boo hoo hoo. 3 weeks just evaporated in front of me. wad have i accomplished? (ok. thats a rather huge word. ) *edit* wad have i done? ....... hahahahaz... nothing. right. ..... it has been a sort of eventful week for me. or rather the past 3 weeks. have been going out.. blah blah blah. managed to finish my assigs by the 2nd week. thats abt it. hahahahz..
peili's birthday celeb was the first big thing that happened in my hols. i've blogged abt that already so i shall skip. then was delph's chalet + YOG meeting. that was fun. didn't even get to sleep more than 4 hours? or was it 5. BBQ was good. and the food. hahaahahz.. delifrance catering was an awesome idea. then i remembered bee, ling li and kylie ate finish like 20 over crabs? hahahaz.. sorrie gals. i dunno how to eat lah. if not i sure help you one. hahahahahaahz..
then on 19th (friday) was a meet up with jasmine, edwin and ting. wanted to go to wala wala at holland v. wah.... 6 plus 7 only the place full house liao. zzzzzzzzzzz seriously. then we initially wanted to go there for drinks only after dinner, so we thought we put on waiting list first, when they have table just nice we eat finish liao.then you know wad. waiting list hor, must wait by the bar leh! they won't call you when they have a table! wad the fuck! zzzzzzzzzzzzz...... sian diao. so we went to eat dinner first then decide later. went back, still full. -_-. in the end settled for a pub nearby which had one for one. hahahahaaz... anyway. had a great time. =)
sunday was the day we (kylie, me, boss, ling li, des and ame) waited for!!!! hahahahahaz.. it was AMAZING GREEN DAY! hahahahahz.. another sp event which me and kylie supported yet again. hahahaz. wanted the shirt... so we participated.. asked all our kakis to join us. this time was at marina barrage. so we met at 7.20 at raffles place mac. had a VERY HEAVY breakfast then headed down to marina bay mrt for the shuttle bus. wahhhh ~ the place a lot of ppl loh. sian. hahahaz.. so boss during breakfast was saying, he want to chiong. first place confirm is us. one person 82 bucks. so even before the flag off, we were already haeding towards the bus. then suddenly, mr shi yong xiang boss, started to run. when he ran, ALL THE PPL BEHIND ME STARTED RUNNING!!!!!! wad the hell!!! so i had to run as well.. kylie and i were like !!!!!!!!. hahahaahz. you know wad the feeling is like? its like we are being chased by one whole gang of gangsters just that they didn't stop to kill us,they ran past us. hahahahahaahahz.. anyway, it was really REALLY boss's fault that the ppl started running. cuz he started running first. i kb him all the way till it ended. and he's proud of it. -_-. ran from marina sq, to one fullerton, back to barrage.. with all the games , questions and blah blah. wasted. didn't kenna esplanade. i was sure we would have saved much more time.. hahahahz..
next was malaysia trip. think this is the worst trip that i've been to. a lot of things happened during this trip that made the whole trip so sour. -_-.. dun want to talk abt it. but anyway, dinner was good, had chilli crabs! hahahahaz..
the next day was the piano festival. went with kylie to watch. oh. before that, something very coincidental happened. fong called me one night asking me wad seats i had for that concert. i told him i got V15, 16. then he was like. 'sure? you sure? i got V17, 18. '. hahahahz! so qiao. so we settled on something stupid. say that, act as if we dunno each other going. then reach there liao, then act surprise. "eh! you got come ah! so qiao ah!" blah blah. so on that day, that chen fong, forgot abt our deal. so in the end, i was the one who acted surprise (very very badly) and kylie was like.. very surprise meh? HAHAH.. zzzzzzzzzzzzz..... anyway... back to the concert. i was telling kylie that i'm afriad the concert would be boring.. cuz i've been watching orchestra, not just piano alone. but.... wah kao... i was captivated by valdimir's performance. he was DAMN F***ING GOOD CAN. hahahahz.. looking at kylie, i saw the same expression i had when i first saw his conert. words fail us. hahahahahahz.. damn good, damn good.... and you know wad? this is specially for delph.. HE ENCORED TWICE! hahahahhahahz.. we kept applauding and applauding and he came out to play one piece. then we still kept applauding and applauding and he played another time!!! we, (as in kylie fong and jasmine) paid $9 for the tickets. how cheap!!!!! damn cheap lah!!!!! hahahahaahz.. so the concert consisted of 4 songs. he encore 2 songs. so total 6 songs. then kylie ang said something stupid. "keep applauding till he play 9 songs lah, so 1 song 1 dollar. " HAHAHAHAH... zzzzz loh she. hahahahahaahz. had a great time. went to get the package at $14 per ticket. SSO Kakis, here we come!!! 1st concert on 26th Nov, beethoven's ode to joy, DUN MISS IT!!!!! hahahahahz. =)

真实
你说的话 在我心中生了根
爱得很深 所以心很疼
记忆 在我的心中翻滚
是不是每一个人
都像我一样笨
只怕再问 对彼此都太残忍
我能感觉 另外一个人
我等 等笑容换成泪痕
爱在崩溃的时候 比较真
太多疑问 知道答案又如何
原来容忍不需要天份
只要爱错一个人
心痛比快乐更真实
爱为何这样的讽刺
我忘了这是第几次
一见你就无法坚持
孤独比拥抱更真实
爱让人失去了理智
会不会是我太自私
拒绝更寂寞的日子
放不开 也看不见未来
难道这种不完美
才是爱情真实的样子

Doesn't matter what I say
Somwhere in my heart I'm always dancing with you in the summer rain

"there is nothing the busy man is less busied with than living; there is nothing that is harder to learn"
- Roman Pbhilospoher Seneca
In my last clumn, I shared some insights from Roman Philsopher Seneca's essay, On The Shortness Of Life. In particular, i described some of the many ways in which we can fritter away our time on unsatisfying and unrewarding tasks. This week, I will explore this topic further
Past, Present and future
"life is divided into three periods," Seneca worte, "that which has been, that which is, and that which will be. Of these, the present time is short, the future is doubtful, the past is certain".
Everday, swiftly and silently, life flows on. The present recedes into the past; the future glides into the present; and then it too vanishes into the past. More quickly tha we every imagined, life's journey draws to an end.
The tragedy is that most people are so "engrossed", so caught up in the day-to-day busyness of life, that they become aware of this to late. "then at last they reflect how uselessly they have striven for things which they did not enjoy, and how all their toil has gone for nothing."
According to Seneca, a careless, unreflecting approach to life deprives us of the blessings of the past, the present and the future.
Squandering the past
The past is the only period of life that is safe and secure, and not subject to the vagaries of fortune. Past memoreis are, in Seneca's words, "an unanxious possession". We can call them up at any time and enjoy them as often as we wish.
But the engorssed are so caught up in the day-to-day whirl that they never take the time to look back. Their lives are like a bottomless well, swallowing up their past as though it never existed. Their lives "vanish into ab abyss".
Futhermore, those who do not live wisely are more likely to look back on the past with regret than rekoicing. There is no pleasure in looking back on wearisome tasks and missed opportunities.
Neglecting the present
"Present time is very brief, so breif, indeed, that to some there seems to be none; for it is always in motion," wrote Seneca. Yet for the terminally busy, the present time is all there is. Their minds are so preoccipied with the business of the moment that everything else is pushed aside.
Worse still, they are so distracted by their busyness ethat even the present is robbed of its sweetness.
Fearing the future
The future has its pitfalls too. Can anything be sillier, Seneca asked, than those who spend every waking moment preparing for the future; wasting today in anticipation of tomorrow? Reasons for anxiety will never be lacking, no matter how hard we work or how prosperous we bacome.
"Very wretched, therefore , and not merely short, must the life of those be who work hard to gain what they must work harder to keep" They spend their entire lives perparing to live.
By now, readers may wonder why i have spent so long focusing on the negative. Afer all, I have spent two entire columns describing the ways in which we fritter away our tim and squaner the blessings of the past, present and future.
I have taken my lead from Seneca himself. This is precisely the method he adopts in his essay. Like a wise doctor, he uses every argument at his disposal to convince us of the seriousness of our condition before prescribing a cure.
In my next column, I will redress the balance and see what positive insights Seneca has to offer and what advice he gives to those who want to live life to the full.
"But those who forget the past, neglect the present and ferar for the future have a life that is very brief andtroubled; when they have reached the end of it, the por wretches perceive too late that for suhc a long while they have been busied in doing nothing"
- Seneca
The whole thing above is written Fary Hayden, taken from Mind Your Body, June 18 2009. Gary Hayden is a freelance writer who specialises in education, science, philosophy, health, well-being, travel and short fiction.
i typed the whole thing in 3 songs. hee... i didn't bother to go through what i wrote, so pls pardon me if there are typos. hahahaz.. i like his articles very much. He will write in sunday times, with sumiko tan.. but recently, i dun have the time or rather i'm working then usually come back KO liao. so.. today is my off day, i remembered to read the article.
those who read to the end, do tag me. so that i'll know there are ppl who read to the end. but i know even if yh read, she also won't tag rite. hahahahaz.. kkz.
live your life the way you want, dun give a**** abt wad ppl think. they are insignificant.
