Resplendent is the word to describe this beauty of a photo. Look at how the clouds are of the same shade as the hay beneath it. It makes the whole picture blends with each other and never fail to exude a sense of warmth.
Imagine a life in the countryside, the rural areas, where there's nothing to worry about each day. Though this picture is more of a wasteland after it failed to be commercialised, the beauty of it all gives it another new lease of life on its own. There's just the living, the hay, the disposed and the sky as our blanket. This is a life to behold.
But think of this: Will a person that has been in the viscous cycle of technology and competition in the industrial world ever get used to a life of no technology? Being thrown into the widerness now, will we be able to turn into savages or just prey to the vultures?
Sometimes I do think that our world is too comercialised; everything for a profit- making motive. revenue? profits? The what nots? every corner we turn to, competition is always the word to be held at arm's length for the fear of it all. But, it always exists. Yes, some will say that competition breeds success and its a viable option to bring up the quality of our work but at times, its just too much.
When can we ever get to see a sky like this, a scenery like this... in singapore? Probably its just me, but i hav never witnessed dawn and dusk- the splendid.

Its Ngee Ann's open house tmr.. yes! 18, 19 and 20 Jan. Do feel free to come down.. And, if i am dere, i can bring you guys around... Its really beautiful... Our school has gone through quite a couple of renovations and its looking splendid. Not forgetting the respective schools and their facility tours that will be a moment to behold. esp that of FMS (not because i'm bias or whatsoever.. but.. its just great!). FMS has like all those nice equipment, production studios, radio studios, broadcasting rooms, Dub and Splice rooms, Locvid cameras and stuff, TV production room! What's not to like? But, well.. thats just me.. but i assure you that coming to NP is the choice to make.
5 canteens. 1 clubhouse. Various Co-ops. Campus Deli. Sao Paulo pride. SIM Mega bites. SIM canteen. KAP Macdonalds.
Is this spoilt for choice or what? haas..
And, lastly i muz touch on the cca fiesta. performances will be put up by various ccas and renowed local bands, project superstar finalists are going to do some "Jam and Hop" at the Atrium. Of course, don't forget to pop y at PSF's booth at the atrium! haas.. Thanks to those hardworking rangers behind it, its fab! Sad that i can only help out for a very short time.. Projects and stuff! well.. my sincere apologies to these ppl.
So, anyway.. feel free to come! (and.. spot our cute, little MASCOT! i just love thee...)
Time seems to fly and its been almost a year at NP and its beginning to feel so much better. To a certain extent, i would say NP brings to me a lot of opportunities and experiences. So, go for it! Ngee Ann..
P.s. TP has the same open hse as us.. haas.. my second choice! haas..

Yes, i came to realize that its been kind of long since i last posted on new year. How many weeks have gone by without me knowing? These 2 weeks or so have been like a long train ride, going through tunnels and never seem to stop at any station. Everyday, its almost been a routine for me to stay up till the wee hours in the morning. Written comm essay, socpsy test, socpsy journal... Now, adding on will be proposal essay, accessed tutorial for socpsy, final accessed speech, debate,radio information capsule, IAC presentation... When can it all come to a standstill? When will everything fall into place?
Conflict is a struggle. So, am i engaged in a conflict now? against my inner self?
There's this day when i am quite unhappy in school. I wont elaborate any further because we know that blogs are not the best place to vent your frustrations towards someone or something. This particular written 'evidence' will then be testimony on the further actions and continued agression. So, i would rather remain silent. Just that, after some pondering at home, i came to a conclusion that i should naver judge others based on what they are labelled. ( yes, socpsy.) i should give them a chance to prove their worth and deploy the use of an extensional device. Judging a book by its cover might not give anyone a clear picture of whatsgoing on beneath it.
Always been this way. I can be really down at the particular moment and it will show on my facial expressions but i can be perfectly alright after i sorted out my thoughts. I don't wallow in self-pity and go around mopping over something i can't change, but rather work with it.. work along it. I don't see te point in getting yourself bent out of shape because of something so insignificant. Something i can solve. Pressed for time, tired mentality, continuous cycle of insanity: all these have remedies. So, why even get chronic depression or worse still, procrastinate and wait for an answer from the skies.
Procrastination will bring us nowhere. Learning to live with what the world has to offer is the work of a true hero!
