summer in hangzhou is terrible. horrible, incorrigible!
its mother freaking HOT, sibei zhua ah!
34 degree celcius minus away the high humidity that singapore has, which makes you unable to sweat though you're feeling warm like mad
i heard its going to rise to 40 degrees celcius in late june!!! OMGGGGGG!!!!
its so jialat that in the evening, you see a HUGE RED SUN, like that of a duck egg's yolk hanging on the hilltop, right in front of your window!
and at night, the blardy mosquitoes suck you dry!
its fucking irritating when they start their "careless whisper" to your ears! then you start slapping your ear and find yourself bloody stupid for doing that... Grrrrr!
*PIAK* (and i killed another mosquito)
and my white wall is littered with the carcasses of 1001 mosquitoes, unidentified winged insects

oooh! i love the soundtrack for Step Up II!
three six nine, the goose drank wine! muahahaha

was reading channelnewsasia the other day, and i think that irene ang's initiative of managing sports stars is a smart move
fits the government's direction of promoting sports, allowing herself and singapore sportsmen to earn more money, most importantly it helps fulfill the unfulfilled dream of hers.

在杭州,闲暇的时间多了,有了更多时间来思考,阅读,学习。
一边看着《少年杨家将》,一边读着《于丹论语感悟》,然后再加入自己的人生经验,得到了很多领悟
以前做对的事情,我暗自对自己嘉许;做错的,我警惕自己日后若再遇到同样的事,一定换另一个角度来看待,用另一种方法来处理。

现在在上“中国哲学”课
小时候很讨厌儒家思想,觉得很迂腐,很“顺民”;比较喜欢道家思想,觉得比较豁达;后来在上初院、当兵时比较喜欢法家和兵家思想,觉得比较实际。
现在,经过了不多不少的世间冷暖、大起大落,觉得儒家思想其实很亲切
开始慢慢了解和学习君子之道、忠恕之心。

怨恨
很恐怖的心情,它就像藤一般把你的心紧紧束缚着、封闭着。
它会把你的眼光变得狭隘
你会觉得全世界欠你的,所有人都亏欠了你

朋友,如果可以的话,放开它吧
也许这样,你会发现你的天空其实不是灰色的,你的世界其实很广阔,你其实有很多朋友

at 2.28pm, hangzhou city stood motionless
the siren went off, flags half mast
taxis and buses stopped by the side of the road
everyone on the streets stood still by the pavement
-----

was talking to dzd the other day,
and many thoughts came to my mind after that
it felt like yesterday when we were studying outside LT7A, playing a fool in RH
and now, jiaxing and her are in US on NOC, I'm in China on SEP, Ghim and Khin are in Singapore on internship, my roomie ah pat in US on NOC too
and suddenly, i missed the not-so-tasty RH breakfast, the early morning wake up knock on the door...
and that was my year 1 sem 1 which i'll always remember, when i was still a freshmen

and i'll always remember year 2 sem 2 too, for the people and the many many events, the many ups and downs, and those who stood by me...

and i thought of the bench at the central forum, where we used to study
and i thought of the old clubroom
and i thought of the central library rooftop

ahhhh!! emo again! :(
-----

oooh!! i must write this down in my blog so that i can remember it forever!!
i know how to compose song lyrics alreadyyyy!!! YEAHHH!!!
*one of these days, i might be the s'pore version of wu ke qun or fang wen shan!*
muahahahaha!!

you really gotta admire the chinese government

websites in singapore were saying that the chinese authorities are claiming that "time is not ripe" for foreign rescuers and that they "politely declined" offers of rescuers from japan... in short, reports that didn't put chinese government in very good light, suggesting an attitude of "closing doors"
however, in my view, i was really damn impressed by how the chinese government handle the crisis.
immediately after the earthquake happened, Premier Wen Jia Bao made his way to Sichuan Province. Within a day, nearly the whole country was activated in helping with the relieve efforts. private taxis, buses, coaches were all activated to send resources and soldiers to affected areas. chinese everywhere in the country are donating, almost immediately after the disaster. companies are sending milk, tents, biscuits to Sichuan. in less than 2 days' time, soldiers, food, supplies, police were sent to Sichuan province. and mind you, its a mobilisation of more than 100000 soldiers.
this was the rate of mobilisation in China.
and the olympics is still ongoing, with no hint of delaying
this is how big china is, something happened in the west, the east will be there to provide the necessary resources; something went wrong in the south, the north will be sending help
and this is ability the chinese government and its people, so much had happened in just a barely half a year, but China is still as stable as it is
even after massive snow storm, tibet riots...

when the earth shakes...

hello everyone, to those who care, thank you!
i'm still alive, don't worry! :)
the earthquake happened in sichuan in the west, im in zhejiang in the east, more than 1000km away from the epicentre.
wah thank god manz, i was thinking of making a trip there some time soon, luckily school restarted, heng ah!
and i thought it was some small quake, around 2-3pm, i was talking to my friend in Xi'an and she was telling me that she her room is shaking and she's going to be evacuated. and i was like, "wah, earthquake ah?! so exciting!!"
didn't expect it to be 7.9 on richter scale and killed more than 10,000 people, with 37 tourists inside! :(
hope that the 2,000 tourists that are still missing could be found and be contacted soon, perhaps a lot of them were backpackers who were alone touring sichuan province

david tao's concert!!
yeps, went to shanghai over the weekend to watch david tao's concert with yang and the noc friends
was very touched when i heard the song 'Dear God', his love for humanity really touched me deeply
ah, then it comes to those 'good old days songs'...
the days when '普通朋友' was played on repeat mode over and over again when i kena rejected (ouch, pain pain!!)
the days when '沙滩' comes to my mind when i feel emo at night on the sentosa beach
the days when i jokingly scolded someone '你这个没有心的王八蛋' and ‘你们是死不了的鬼'
the days when i sang happily '哗啦啦啦天在下雨,哗啦啦啦云在哭泣' with my friend over the phone
the days when i keep playing '天天' and ‘爱很简单' on my discman (later it became i-tunes) when someone's on my mind



有个女孩让我好想念... ...

天刚亮的六点十五分
一个人静静地写论文
听着 一首首的情歌
思念 一层接一层
想起了 那会说话的眼神
让我突然一阵心疼
时光的流逝从来都是无息无声
但你依然是我最在乎的人

hehs, it rhymes hor?! wahaha!!

oooh! i love this song!

小太阳
歌詞:詞曲﹕阿信 編曲﹕五月天

多麼難忘 是你純真的模樣
突然的吻 瀰漫著茶香
多麼嚮往 夢想總是在他方
你說等我 不管多漫長
你就是太陽 蒸發了彷徨
所以挖開土壤 種下希望 離開了故鄉

看著你的眼眶 忍著淚 閃著光
我會很快回來 繼續我們 未完的天堂
看著你的臉龐 微笑著 要我去闖
你的盼望 是我握在手中 小小的太陽

念念不忘 此刻應該是農忙
如畫風光 有你在歌唱
你就是太陽 照亮了方向
你讓地球旋轉 月亮發光 讓我有翅膀

看著你的眼眶 忍著淚 閃著光我
會很快回來 繼續我們 未完的天堂
看著你的臉龐 微笑著 要我去闖
你的盼望是我 握在手中 小小的太陽

wu yue tian rocks! =D

/ shining lights

Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue & grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch trees & daffodils,
Catch breeze & winter chills,
In colors on snowy linen land.

profile

I am the one star that keeps burning, so brightly
It is the last light, to fade into the rising sun

Bit by Bit, You'll be Inspired!
