End of May
The last day of May has come swiftly admist the laughter and fun that has taken up the most of our time. Yes, its almost a month into the holidays. Things are starting to pick up, but none of them has borne any fruits yet. Sometimes, I wonder if the plans I've set for myself this summer vacation is ever going to be fulfilled as planned. 3 major things are left dangling in mid air amongst the many other "sub-plans" which I have set out to achieve.
The days are hot and the nights, humid. Summer is here. Enjoy, feel fulfilled or simply, waste our time away? Its all up to you.
Scribblings...
Went for the starwars movie yesterday with zhiyou and ppl. Enjoyed it, I should say. At least the fight sequences were quite ok. The story was, kinda expected, how Anakin became Vader. I should say its pretty much movie goer's fare...
Been busy these few weeks, sorting out the things I should be doing and actually getting down to doing them. Yes, I have been practising on me keyboard and of course, there's this usual dosage of games to boot. 2 more days till the release of my results for the past semester. I hope all my friends will do well.
These few days, I suddenly started to crave for the island that I have visited last year, Tioman. A beautiful place, serene surroundings, picturesque sunsets, white fine sandy beaches, clear waters and the ever inviting summer sea breeze. Everything seemed so fine, a place where one can truly throw all their worries out of the window and relax. Paul should have already reached Tioman on his sailing trip. I am happy for him, to revisit the very same place again, one year after we left...
The memories of Tioman will stay and one day, I shall be back to soak in the ever relaxing environment once again. Till then, enjoy your sail, Paul!
Aimless Days...
It has been a week since the last paper that ended the semester. Plans that were drawn out before the holiday were not realised. Schedules were abandoned in the name of greater fun in front of the computer. Yes, such is the temptation and the allure of technology. I am sure that I am not the only one afflicted by the bane of technology.
Hours have been lost trying to satisfy my virtual self in the virtual realm, there seems to be no more worries or deadlines to meet. Which is entirely wrong... the deadlines and worries of life does not end with the demise of the semester. Yesteryear's work will not end with yesteryear's last day; at least this is what I believe.
Such has been the days led by me; aimless and "funfilled" days in front of the computer. I did break from this cycle, I went out but sucked in I was, the moment I stepped into my room. However, I still managed to find time for friendships to be bonded more tightly than ever; maybe the allure was not as powerful as I thought?
Breaking free from these aimless and lethargic days will be no easy task. But I will have to try. I will be on my way again to fufill what I have set out for myself before the end of last semester.
I am beginning to play the keyboard again, which feels somewhat detached from my memories. I will pick it up again. This time, I will be better than the last. To all my friends who are trapped in the same plight as me, I wish you a speedy knock back into the realms of the real world. Be back my friends! Take a hold on your lives today!
Liberation... at Last
Just 2.5hrs ago, I penned the last of what seemed to be the final word for this semester. Yes, I have finished the entire slew of examinations... at long last. My friends have all been liberated from their torture chambers with me being the last of the lot to be released into an inviting 3 months holidays starting from today.
I am indeed happy with the fact that I need not be mugging anymore for this first half of 2005. I am looking forward to the holidays... hoping that I will be able to learn some new tricks and stuff through the various committments that I have landed myself into.
Joy be to me and to the world! It is time to rejoice, my fellow friends!
Melodies
The world's beautiful, isn't it? It's filled with sunshine and white sandy beaches, full of joyous people leaving their marks on the sand as they run past life's never ending parade. This parade we call "life"; its all a show, happiness gets you through it and so does sadness. Choices abound where life's timeless shores mark the bountiful love and care your family and friends have for you. Choices that we have to make, friendships that we have to foster, love that we have to give; this is life, my friend.
The joy of life is for all to experience, be like a melody that stands its grounds against the ravages of time; lead a life where there is much to be remembered and enjoyed, up till the moment where you shall bow to the world and take your leave..
I will take my stand in this parade, will you?
