HIATUS

for the final exams, or maybe after that too. i think i'd rather spend my time on the computer playing dota from now on. time to revive the jamming days, yea paul you can disband and we'll reband :D

i gave up my guitar for my wings. it's time to blow the dust off my white hamer and relive the glory days, plug in that cable and blow up the powerplug. crunch and metal never felt so good in a long time.

so long :)

clarification: the post on 16th august was written by me :D ay i never meant it as a poem, just inspired words drawn from something that happened to me recently. i won't explain what though.

i realised, being without earphones is terrible. headphones are bulky, they consume more battery power (i think), and they slip off my ears easily. my brother wouldn't lend me his earphones so i figured i would abstain from portable music until i get a new pair of earphones.

i was supposed to have both my english oral presentation and my chinese oral this week. however both got postponed to monday because of the lack of time. i have physics and chem practicals on my shoulder, math assignment, plus the stress of having to present both orals next week. i wanted to get it over and done with quick, but nay..

time to sleep. i have to recharge for tomorrow.

i finally did my first solo flight :D:D:D:D

never mind i got doused in a mixture of stinky who-knows-what, i finally can put on a flight suit, gloves and boots. haha, i thank God for putting the rain in the clouds for a few minutes. what a relief, what a relief.

i pray and hope my medical goes well, i finally got my first solo wings :D

YAYNESS.

you're the angel among heathen weeds, agnostic lovegrass.

i'm tired of complaining about my life. haha seriously, anyway it always sounds the same, because it's always about the same old problems: homework, school, homework. always.

so it's always nice to take some time out to appreciate the things that make living life worthwhile even in the midst of school and homework. it never fails to bring a smile :) even though grinning in front of the comp in the absence of people may seem weird. haha.

copeland music is therapeutic :) it's the only music in my player that can drive me to sleep in minutes. right now i'm doing my iop script, then maybe later i'll do my chinese oral script. i'm sleepy :D

don't lose your head just for your heart..

pedigree

the rare breed,

pedigree they say.
it only exists in small numbers and guises itself in simplicity.
it brings euphoria in abundance,
ceasing only in its absence.

when finally,
he stumbles upon one.
he admires its simple beauty
that stretches beyond form,
in awe that he's actually found it.

his short abbreviated interactions:
he takes comfort in them.
it is like the breeze in hot sun,
gentle and unfaltering
it never fails to enliven the tired soul.
his existence intertwines with its,
but just barely.
they call it an acquaintanceship,
shallow, merry motives
but not the least bit inclined towards malice.

if chance allows it,
time plays a part
in the further entwinement of two,
into complex bonds of knowledge and inter-comprehension.

the ensuing blissful affinity
usually flourishes into something sublime.
he cannot be more amazed by the deep feelings
that engulf his soul, towards it:
now a part of him, one in mode.

however, the anchor
of which he set out to build everything upon
is deceivingly fragile.
that affinity shared between him, and it,
may be short-lived.
so short, sometimes.
though he tries so hard to stop it,
the foundation of braids
like complex nervous systems
is torn apart, quickly and painfully.

the rare breed
will never be the same.
once two strongly weaved soul vines,
now seperated
scarcely touching.
the awe,
the bliss fritters into odd
glances and awkward stances.
the same tired soul lives,
with nostalgia and regret.

wondering to himself,
when will chance permit
him to find another,
just like this.
this time however,
venturing with caution, and
praying unceasingly for a different end.

finding out later:
some things are better left untouched,
maybe he should not have tried.

today was a let down. according to my flying instructor, the crosswinds will continue to be unduly strong for the next month or so. it's the inter-monsoon period or something where the wind direction is changing.

ah i've missed three chances for solo thanks to the wind. today was abit different, but the wind was there nonetheless. howhow i was told just to continue flying and hope for the best, if i don't get my solo i won't get into ppl. darn.

so the certain charles found my blog, very much to my dismay.

ironically, we played soccer again today, and guess who played as well. ok i shall not reiterate my point, lest someone expresses his depression again. aye, charles you're a nice guy (nice to ...), but seriously, your soccer skills are @&%#, ga being a true friend i have to tell you the truth. oh darn, i feel mean. it gets really irritating on the pitch.

yes. holiday for 4 days :D

i'm going to take time out to sleep.

i still haven't flown solo. my landing on the 17th flight wasn't satisfactory so my instructor put my solo on hold, and the crosswind on the 18th wasn't ideal for first solo. so now, i am desperately waiting for my 19th flight.

hurray to national day! tomorrow there's cross country at turf city, so there won't be any lessons. wednesday is acs combined national day celebrations at queenstown sports complex so there won't be lessons also. thursday is national day, and friday is post-national day rest day :D and before you know it, then comes saturday and sunday!

soccer today was horrid. josh exploits charles at every opportunity. and the fact that charles isn't very bright and is in total delusion doesn't help either. charles has no idea he has no talent in ball games AT ALL, and the worse thing is that he has self-conceived ideas that he is not bad at the game.. haha. i'm never going to play soccer when josh makes charles the captain and charles picks me first grr. he has ideas that i'm a ' damn good winger who can run down the flank and burn the defenders' and paul is a 'damn good playmaker'. i hope he doesn't ever get to see this.. i wonder whether he blogs and blog surfs..

i have no idea why, whenever i play combined dota games with plee on bnet, we get trounced. it's like a curse :S getting owned is not fun.. and we always get noob teammates. plus maphackers just ruin the game too. we have to have to own soon.

my right earphone broke down and died today. i better get new ones soon.

1st solo flight tomorrow..! i am VERY nervous.

i went to search for lmao under acronymfinder.com cos i had no idea what it was. and people on battle.net were using it like mad.

lmao = laughing my ass off :D
roflmao = rolling on floor laughing my ass off

haha, then i went on to search for other acronyms that were commonly used on bnet. and i found some funny stuff.

stfu = show them fury unleashed (lol), samurai training finished unsuccessfully (lolx2)
wtf = where's the fridge?, welcome to finland, waste treatment facility (haha)

it seems the site doesn't allow vulgarities at all, which is good i suppose..

i need to get signatures for my cas file, which i can't by today cos that means calling bj out and going to syfc and explaining the whole darn thing to my flying instructor. gaga how chirnside is going to murder me with his stare like he always does.

anyway, i still have lots of work to do. it's become my way of life, procrastinate then chase late work, procrastinate somemore and chase more late work. it's a vicious cycle that i don't feel like putting in the extra effort to break. i'm fine with that, but my teachers' aren't.. mmm.

i started listening to motion city soundtrack and they've just become my favorite band :) they're good.

I’m on fire and now I think I’m ready to bust a move
Check it out I’m rocking steady
Go!
