If only I didn't have to grow up. Living blissfully in a state of unknowing would suit me just fine. Haven't you realised that growing up eradicates all yr childhood innocence, the simple trust & faith that you used to have? (ok, i'm sounding like Silas Marner, but that's besides the point.) Affairs used to be handed by parents, who would just tell you to sit in a corner while they settled everything for you. No decisions to make, nothing to worry yr head over. The only thing you have to think about is whether you'll be able to buy that lovely eraser/per/pencil etc that you saw in the school bookshop yesterday. But, having grown up, it's nearly impossible to look at the world through a child's eyes again. Adults become jaded and resigned to their lives. What got me thinking abt this issue was the decision that i've to make soon. choosing the correct university. yeah, i know, it's only a uni right? Wrong. the uni that i ultimately end up in will have a direct impact on my lives. The reasons shall not be stated herewith in case some higher ups from that particular uni happen to stumble in here. But, i'm sure i'm not the only 19 yr old feeling this way. i happen to know for a fact that Esther Mickey Pig is feeling the same way too. If only life was like a set of formulas. Just follow the steps & you'll ultimately end up with the correct ans. But sadly, life was not meant to be like that....
Well, on to happier issues... i bought 2 books yesterday from MPH. J.D.Salinger's- The Catcher In The Rye & Sophie's World. I saw Theroux & Kerosac at MPH too. I was soooo tempted to buy an additional 2 books.. :P Well, i'm going shopping on Sat with Esther & Debbie, let's see what i'll come home with this time. :) And on Sun, i'm going out with Priscilla!! haven't seen her for the longest time!! Good luck for yr law interview ya?? :)
Better get back to work now. have lots to do! updates later? if i've the time.. :)

i've rediscovered my love for books.. haven't picked up a book since eons ago. leaving sch seems to be tantamount to leaving books of every kind behind. i'm gonna go down to Peace Center soon to pick up a few books. Esther's tempted to go as well. :P Here are a few of the books on my list.. white teeth - zadie smith,on the road - jack kerouac, any human heart - william boyd,j d salinger - the catcher in the rye.. All kindly recommended by my beloved rebecca. :) thanks dear.. anyway, i kept saying that i'ld go down to visit her at Marina Square, but i haven't done so yet. :P i promise i'll find time soon to visit you. :)
I'm still at work.. my eyes are getting all blurry from staring at the computer screen. i swear i hate MS Excel with a passion. Aren't computers supposed to make life easier?? On the contrary, i believe it makes things worse!
I need retail therapy, i need mickey to entertain me & i wanna go HK!! i desperately need a holiday/short break before uni starts. I need to rejuvenate myself before hitting the books again. argh.......

I can't wait for my CDs to arrive!! I've bought like 2 CDs & i'm finally getting my long overdue present from Pam as well. I've got so many nice CDs to listen to. Hacken Lee-Acrobats, All About Men, Joey Yung-Like Joey 3 (New + Best Selection).. can't wait till it gets here! Also, the birkenstocks shd be arriving within the next 2 weeks. :) haha. hope my parents won't get a shock when the DHL man arrives with 12 large boxes addressed to me. :P think i better warn them beforehand. i've been spending a lot lately. just bought Untraceable Evidence I from TS yesterday. can't wait to start watching it. too bad both Family Man & Untraceable Evidence II are sold out. looks like it is really popular. I've gd taste! :)
received a CD from church today on tithing. my whole family was listening to it in the room. :) feel greatly enlightened after the sermon. haha. didn't know that there was so much to tithing. i've always thought that tithing was just, well, tithing! It goes all the way back to the OT & how one will be blessed greatly through his tithes. Read Malachi 3.. it'll give you more insight on tithing. :)
Esther & Debbie! when are we gonna have our moviethon?????? stop procratinating k! especially Debbie Teo who doesn't reply to SMSes & who doesn't pick up her phone! how are we supposed to contact you??

Your wise quote is: "Be kind to unkind people,
they probably need it the most" by
Ashleigh Brilliant.
You try to look beyond apperance, try to give
people second chances and are probably very
kind. Understanding is your biggest personality
trait, and thoose you can see through should be
grateful. If they aren't already. You detest
narrow minded people, because they can't see
what's really there. Facades is not your thing
and you strive to always be who you really are.

i was reading through some lessons on Psalms on Darlene Zchech's website & i came across this very interesting quote.
Many ppl have no problem with singing songs & praising God. But yet, how many ppl are truly worshipping HIM? It is critical that we worship God in spirit & in truth,i.e: our heart & our soul must be constantly praising him despite our circumstances. We must trust God that he will deliver us. Faith is a key element in our daily walk with God.

NTU acct interview's finally over. I think i kinda screwed up during the interview cause i talked a lot of rubbish. plus, i got lost! so i ended up being late for the interview. haiz.... just pray that i'll be able to get a place there..
Often the battle that needs to be won first, is the battle that goes on within us, in our minds… How can God? Why would God? What if God doesn’t?….

went for service yest and boy was it fantastic! the service was one of the best that i've had in ages. really felt extremely blessed by Ps Prince's sermon. Too bad my parents missed the sermon. Saw stacy & terrence at church yest.. :) service ended late so Pam & i rushed through our lunch before cab-bing over to Victoria Theatre to catch Boeing Boeing.
Boeing Boeing was totally fab! Lots of witty humour + a totally great cast. A sure win reciepe for success. I liked Rosa, the maid. esp when she goes off stage mumbling incoherently to herself cause she's just too fed up with everyone & everything. Of all the 3 stewardesses, Miss Cathay Pacific (Pam Oei) was the best! Her HK accent was exactly like Pamelia's!! Everyone was laughing super hard throughout. The play was a sell out, so much so that they had to extend it by another 2 shows. Though the tickets cost me $30, i think that it certainly was money well spent. :)
Esther says that she might be able to get free Sound Of Music tickets cause of her mum's connections and all. :) can't wait!

i wanna go on holiday!! i need retail therapy NOW! i can't imagine y ppl would rather work instead of study. I confess i used to be one of them. But now,my view has taken a total 360 degree turn. Working life sucks! if i had a choice, i would rather not work at all. oh, i just wish that school would start soon.. but no such luck i guess.. still gotta wait till Aug. My last day of work's on 30th June. July's the time for me to rest & relax before sch starts. hopefully, i can convince my parents to let me take a short trip somewhere before uni begins. i know esther & pam are just dying to go away too. :P esp esther. she wants to visit her hometown. ;)

i'm at work now. For those who don't know, i've already quit my law firm job & i'm now working at Singapore Comp Systems. The pay's much much better & best of all, its pretty slack as compared to my law firm job. I've my own room! haha. nobody disturbs me in there. I get to surf the net, listen to music & chat on MSN. but of course, i have to do my work la. :) it's pretty light work, so i don't really mind.
well, it looks like i'll be going to SMU instead of NUS. I'm still waiting for NUS to contact me. If i don't get an answer by mid-april, i can pretty much confirm my entry to SMU. I can't wait to start uni. i'm sure it's gonna be very very fun! haha. i don't like working at all... i've heard plenty of complaints from my friends who are working elsewhere and i've concluded that studying is much better. Yes, even though we've exams & all, that stress is nothing compared to what one faces at work. At work, there's so much politics going on. Imagine handling that on top of yr work... i think it's very very unbearable..
