Is it a coincidence, or...

As I was typing my blog post last night, if you had read, I was watching Britain's Got Talent like for the gazillion-th times to dispel some negative thoughts and to motivate myself in continuing the revision for next week's test. Doesn't make sense but well...

I was watching this clip which was the auditions round by Shaheen Jafargholi performing "Who's Lovin' You".

Then I was thinking "Whoa, what a nice song! By Michael Jackson...". Then I was Google-ing his name and reading through his profile and videos on Youtube.

Believe me, as famous as Michael Jackson was(to my mum & dad and other similarly aged people.), I really don't know a thing or two about him. If not for clip, I would never ever have bothered to look up this person, not as much as Tyra Banks and Daniel Wu.

All I know was that he was known for the "Moonwalk" and the sexual abuse accusations.

And today, on Yahoo! news, "Pop icon Michael Jackson dead at 50".

Is it a coincidence, or...

My mum is already messaging me about how he died. News travel fast, don't they?

What is happening?

Over the past 3 weeks, I have honestly done nothing much.

I've been watching video clips and more video clips without the slightest trace of guilt that exams are next week, nearly back-to-back everyday, and I have got 3 projects on hand.

When it comes to studying, my motivation is really not there, not as much as going to work or even a whole lot of other stuff.

I know its my time to study and work hard to get those fantastic grades. Mum & Dad has always been saying "You better study hard when you are a student. Don't wait till you are working then you start to regret that you should have studied harder to take on a higher position."

Yeah I know that and really makes perfect sense - it really does!

But what amazes myself is I can't find any motivation or discipline to study.

I'm really starting to believe that this is not really the right path for me.

What is then?

I guess my whole life is ruined.

Jealously

Oh well oh well.

That's the primary reason why I hate(and love) about technology.

You get to see the most impossible stuff online.

I think I am missing the point, seriously.

But in any case, "人各有命，不需要谢幕别人".

Jealously? Not a word that exist in my dictionary.

Enjoying a day of the holidays

Well well well, if it isn't a well-spent day in town then what is?



Watched this movie at The Cathay with Ash. We finally decided to change the genre from Horror and Apocalyptic to Comedy.

It was a really good laugh, and it's has been a long time since I did so. I guess it's the same for Ash.

I have to say that I was really surprised that he got over what he needed to get over that soon and quickly.

Just part and parcel of life; people do mature and grow, eh?

I got my stuff as well (heck the card statement figures, I still feel that I haven't bought enough out from the GSS). The next important thing after revising for the upcoming test and doing up the projects would be arranging my wardrobe. I have practically got to do a excavation whenever I need to search for my clothes.

Oh yes, I need to work tomorrow. People out there who don't need to work, count yourselves lucky!

Ok, I'm finishing up the Java program and hitting the sacks.

What a easy-to-use software

SAP is driving me a hell lot of nuts!

And time is really running out.

I haven't even got down to revising for MST and not to mention FYP.

I guess my hopes of getting 3.5 this semester is as good as dashed.

I'll just try my best.

A decision

It is extremely tiring to make a decision, for the fear of making the wrong decision, for the fear of missing an opportunity, for the fear of affecting your whole life as result arising from the unfavorable decision made.

But then again, no move made = no advancement.

You stay on the same old spot while others are moving swiftly in terms of light miles from you.

Isn't that much more "unfavorable"?

A shame, isn't it?

The 1^st item I bought after pay-day is Jim Beam Bourbon Whiskey.

Alcohol is just what I need before I go berserk.

what am i doing

sometimes I really wonder, what on earth am I doing?

Big dreams and aspirations, yet I am slacking and wasting time.

I wish I have a crystal ball to look into my bleak future to provide a gigavolt jolt to myself.

Gotto cure my "Procrastination Syndrome".

It is bad

Ok, I'm really scared now.

Scared of FYP, upcoming test and NAPFA.

It's time to work hard for everything and no more slacking.

Saturday night

Friday night
•  At home

Saturday night
•  At home

Great man. It's Saturday night and I'm at home.

Such an interesting way to begin my long-awaited, precious holidays.

I hope you can catch the drift and read the subtle traces of sarcasm.

Needless to say, the main contributing factor for my "self-grounding" is that I have a nearing zero balance in my bank account. Blame it on the Great Singapore Sale.

Ah well, I don't have an negative figure with any organization so I presume that I could use that as an consoling and convincing pretext of spending money?

Lame excuse.

It's really time for me to realize and stand up to the fact that I'm a real spendthrift. When I got about $440 a month during attachment and that just month alone, I had spent about $800. I nearly blanked out when I received the statement. Luckily, I'm only using debit cards, not credit.

*And I'm looking at Citibank's Clear card and as I'm blogging right now*



Oh and just the previous weekend, I had spent more than $200. OMG!

You really don't feel or notice the tangibility when you don't pay by cash.

One more added resolution in the year 2009: To curb my spending

***

To ease my boredom, I was snooping around websites and saw this collection by Dior Homme Fall-Winter 09/10:



Woots! I love the vest! Gorgeous, isn't it?

I viewed the Haute Couture SS09 too. Magnificent artworks!

That's all for now, bye!

人生如戏，戏如人生。

那什么才是真或假呢？

Footsteps in the Sand - Ademar de Barros

One night, I dreamed a dream, I was walking along the beach with my Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my Lord. When the last scene of my life shot before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. There was only one set of footprints. I realized that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life. This always bothered me and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma. "Lord, You told me when I decided to follow You, You would walk and talk with me all the way. But I’m aware that during the most troublesome times of my life there is only one set of footprints. I just don’t understand why, when I need You most, You leave me”. He whispered “My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, never, ever, during your trials and testings. When you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”

My condolences

I may be sitting in a country thousands of miles away from Paris or Rio de Janeiro.

I may be totally not connected to the fateful flight of Air France 447, Rio de Janeiro - Paris-Charles de Gaulle.

But as a fellow human being, I offer my deepest condolences to the victims and their loved ones.



"In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return."

Why just not her?

Seriously, I'm rather annoyed at the fact that Susan Boyle didn't win Britain's Got Talent.

I have watched both Diversity and Susan Boyle's performance and I honestly don't think that Diversity's performance is better.

No doubt that the dance was really good and executed flawlessly. Perhaps I do not appreciate dance acts as much as vocal ones.

And c'mon, more than 100 million views within 9 days? Worldwide coverage and Interviews by Larry King, Oprah when she's literally a nobody before the auditions? What's more, I reckon she puts much makeup or even wears and not to mention owning a couture gown.

Anyways, Susan, win or lose, you are a winner.

In the British accent: "You are absolutely stunning."

EQ IQ AQ

Emotional Quotient, Intelligence Quotient, Adversity Quotient.

Which will you value most?

Right at this moment, I would only want to say 2 things.

- I'm rather pissed off and disappointed

- I want a Prada bag

To be honest, I don't know even know what should I be even feeling now. Angry, or fed up?
