FYP(I)

before, life was sad. fyp was top priority. it killed my life. everyday was report and meetings. i almost married my laptop and i swear, each time my lappy decided to play tricks and died on me, i would panic my guts out, curse, swear and cry.my acer laptop for two years and counting. you've served me well, going through thick and thin with me. and check out the mess i made, the creation of fyp.yes, we had a fyp portal to log all out meetings. bummer.before this fyp, i was an idiot to using excel. now i feel like a pro yo.so you see, fyp kills people. i have never been so serious all my life in RP, till now.i skipped two days of class just to complete my report, just so to meet the submission dateline. everyone was hectic, i saw the library being crowded during lesson times, which means many had skipped class too! i guess it wasn't just SHL but look, year three isn't really that glamourous after all huh!

it was a little breather for us all after the submission of our reports but hey, we still had our team presentation to complete! and yesterday, we could finally call it an end to FYP(I). It was SHL's turn for FYP(I) presentations. my team (ken, martin, willow, jasmine and me), was sheduled to present at 1530 at E64G. so we met at 1300 and did our last minute touch ups and preparations. I guess we all didn't feel much pressure intially. for me, i blanked out during our rehearsal and then i started to worry a little. I really started to feel nervous when we all started our actual presentation. i didn't expect to feel that way but i was scared and shaking :( oh well, i did miss out some points and it definitely wasn't my best presentation at all for i know i could have done a much better job. least now i know what to expect in FYP (II). i'm hereby swearing that i'll start on the right note and do a splendid job for FYP (II)! no more you to make me cry and loose focus. you got me down hard, but i'm trying to be so much better.
andruew and I (sibling! do you believe?)
andruew's team mates. last team to present, no wonder they all looked so bored.it's amazing how a presentation can make a person so hungry.saburi ken. jasmine sure changes out fast from her formal wear.
martin acting cute. (i know you love roses.)
xoxo jasmine danker :)
jasmine's a gym freak with hot legs.
my japo boyfriend.

music: sum41: with me

'life's a stage and all men and women, merely players.'as a little girl, i wanted to have every toy i saw. i wanted to play all day long and pretend that i was a princess in a fairytale.and i grew up to become a confuse teenager. everything seem to become problems that made me so scared and insecure of myself. and i grew up to know what being in love with someone was. many heartbreaks, many happy moments.
times, where i felt the world was coming down on me and i was just so drained and tired and lost, i just wanted to be home, hiding in arms that would make me so secure. (i never found it)
as i grew up more, things just got more complicated. i took up commitments which caused me my love life many a times. i was constantly busy but i was ok with it. i just needed to know that you were there by me. it make things so much better.
there were times i felt so alone, with no one but my commitments and just myself. i thought i was strong but it was times like this i saw how much of a fool i was to keep trying and believing that someone would come by and stay for long, without breaking my heart.
so here i am now, lingering alone, with my commitments and putting on my mask everyday. hey you, in my past blog entry, i thanked you for making me believe again and i was giving my one chance to you. i wonder if you ever saw that? i t doesnt matter now does it. i need to wake up.
stop and think. you keep asking me to grow up. am i that childish? cos if i was, would i have what i have today? would i be what i am today? maybe a failure in loving is more correct.
so there u go, with another and with your friends. i'm stranded in the rain. i hate rainy days. the sun, sand and sea calm my nerves for the moment, but the wound doesn't ever heal. so here i am, sitting with books that would bring me into the picture perfect world, one that doesn't exist. i try to take you away, it doesn't work. so here i am, wearing my mask on, ever so well.


i have a friend.

her name is CHRISTINA and she is awesome :)
i never thought we'd be so close but now that we are, i'm cherising every moment.
hey babes, cheer up cos' there so many out there who wants to see us smile.


HI SAMANTHA HALLEY. I'M BLOGGING ABOUT YOU NOW :)
SATURDAY WAS SO COOL. WE SHOULD LIKE MAKE IT A WEEKLY AFFAIR.


xoxoJIN

now honestly tell me.

have you felt insecure cos i don't love you right?
have i not been there for you when you needed me?
have i made you feel that you were so unworthy of me?
have i not brought joy into your life?
did the text messages not make your day?
was the palyfulness in me what you hated?
was my character too loud for you?
was my hair too dry for you?
was my height not tall enough for you?
were my braces not appealing?
were my commitments too tiring for you to handle?
was i too boring for you?
did i demand too much?
did i compare you?

the list goes on...





hey you, looking so fly, you got me smiling and i don't know why.
hey you, making me all shy, i'm blushing right now and i can't say why.
hey you, making me so scared, i'm trying to make you stay everyday, so tell me you'll be mine.
hey you, you make me laugh and feel good, tell me now that you feel the same way too.
hey you, i never meant to make you mad and sad, please hold me close again so i can make those promises to you come true.


i love you none the lesser but more.

music: marie carey: byebye

i never meant to hurt you and i never meant for myself to hurt like this either.
i'm missing you but things aren't the same anymore.
friends cheer me up, but it's for the moment.
i guess you mean so much.
i'm sorry.
i guess i never stopped forgiving myself.

music: usher feat yound jeezy: love in this club

finally, i'm so done with my individual report for FYP (I). it's a hude weight off me i swear. for days, i've been been so good, sitting glued in front of my laptop and concentrating real hard. books at one side, notebooks and pens on the other. i seldom move in case i lost a huge chuck of time. i've not been so stress, tired and drained in such a long time. i'm just so glad that the report is over. phew!

Sunday, July 20, 2008

and when i finally break free from all your abuse, i'll run away and never come back.
time will tell.
i've had enough because if you don't respect even yourselves, how can you raise me good?

Saturday, July 19, 2008

'i rushed down to see you holding hands with another. you were smiling and all happy.'
how was i to feel?
tell me.

sad songs.

sad songs helps me cry, it helps me reflect on what i have done and leave me to regret. but sad songs sometimes make me strong, makes me determined and makes me want to change, and be better. at this point in my life, i don't know anything anymore. how i am, what i want, i'm unsure. i need guidance, no doubt about that. right now, i'll take a step at a time, i'll be a better person, this i promise, you, my friends, my family and the world.

as i was stressing over my fyp, i had a chat with ivor.
j i n . z says:
have u ever regretted anything youve done?
[i-vor] says:
wat sense?
j i n . z says:
anything
[i-vor] says:
yes of course
[i-vor] says:
how to not live without regrets?
[i-vor] says:
we are humans! not that perfect after al
[i-vor] says:
*all
j i n . z says:
right ok
j i n . z says:
so what do u do
j i n . z says:
move on?
j i n . z says:
and just leave it all
[i-vor] says:
learn n move on
[i-vor] says:
afterall whats done is done
j i n . z says:
will time heal?
j i n . z says:
i mean will someone ever forget fully abt something
[i-vor] says:
not if that person is trying very hard to forget
[i-vor] says:
sometimes trying too hard about something does give you the opposite reaction
j i n . z says:
so what then
j i n . z says:
i mean
j i n . z says:
just go with whatever that comes
j i n . z says:
and hope things get better?
[i-vor] says:
go with the flow and let time do the rest?
j i n . z says:
hmm..alrights
[i-vor] says:
dont worry!
j i n . z says:
yea
j i n . z says:
i know
j i n . z says:
it's just the process of learning
j i n . z says:
haha
[i-vor] says:
nah.. its the process of life
[i-vor] says:
hah
j i n . z says:
yea
j i n . z says:
and i hate the unhappy parts
[i-vor] says:
haha
[i-vor] says:
learn to appreciate them?
j i n . z says:
how can someone appreciate unhappy things?
j i n . z says:
i mean they should regret and learn from it
[i-vor] says:
well in the midst of it, dont be all dead and dying? but instead know that okay, things have happened, how to make it better now? and just face the music! knowing that it will be over does help
j i n . z says:
but at times ppl still hope for a miracle right
j i n . z says:
so how then can u convince oneself that it is over
[i-vor] says:
i guess at some point, the act of hoping for a miracle proves that the person still is holding on to it
j i n . z says:
yea
j i n . z says:
so should a person hold on or let go
j i n . z says:
which is correct
[i-vor] says:
there is no correct answer silly
[i-vor] says:
its all up to ya to judge but one thing is that its not always about holding on but letting go. if its meant to be, it wont need one to cling on it
j i n . z says:
true
j i n . z says:
and words can only mean so much right, i mean a person can make up his or her mind about something but at the end of it all still change taht fact
[i-vor] says:
yeps
[i-vor] says:
saying, thinking, deciding is a big difference from doing
j i n . z says:
and what if someone actually say and does it?
j i n . z says:
can it still change?
[i-vor] says:
it shouldnt
j i n . z says:
really
j i n . z says:
ok
[i-vor] says:
so what have ya decided?
j i n . z says:
huh?
j i n . z says:
nah im just aking
[i-vor] says:
haha
j i n . z says:
pt is i wanna know if people's mindset still changes even after they have made a decision and done it
[i-vor] says:
hah
[i-vor] says:
okayy
[i-vor] says:
but each of us function and think differently
j i n . z says:
u know like suddenlythey felt they thought wrong
j i n . z says:
yea


and then johann came along and while asking how i was, he let me read a someone's blog.
http://memyselfmine.blogspot.com/
it's about this girl who lost her boyfriend while he was in the army. i don't know how many of you know about this incident but read it. it sure is saddening. i teared and sobbed, relating it to what i was going through.

least now i know you're still here in the world and i can still see and feel you around unlike her. it's a blessing that i should be contented about. for all that has happened and i have done wrong, i'll be sure to cherish whatever comes now.

hey there, the doors are still open, come on in whenever you want.

music: buckcherry: sorry

hey there, if you are reading this, i just want to let you know how much i miss you and i want to care. the memories are flooding back, the good and the bad. everything i do and everywhere i go, there's you. you are a gem, one i made ugly. one i took for granted and now i'm living in regret. you made me realise how horrible of a person i am. i'll never be good. i question myself everyday now, about what i want. there's only one answer, to have you.

this song, this song you sent when you were feeling like crap and i was not giving two fucks about you, is now the song that plays on and on for me. it's been ten months, so close to a year. looking back, it seems like forever. all the happiness, the ugly fights, the insecurities and what not finally made you stop loving. you are tired, you have moved on.

i keep telling myself now that it is my fault and it really is. i keep telling myself you were always there and i looked right past it. i'm to be blamed, i'm a let down to you and myself.

for all that i've done, i wanna make it up. for all that you have said, i still want it to come through. the friendster messages and the sweet smses, i hope one day i'll get again. i want to still be the only one you need, your air. i wanna watch the notebook and cry again in your arms. i wanna get those cute letters you write to me. i want your lego collection. i want to cuddle in you. i want to kiss you. i want you to need me. i want you in my life.

if i could, i'd write you letters telling you i'm sorry everyday, just like i did when you were away. if i could, i would leave you little gifts now and then. but i'm afraid of making you mad. i'm afraid of loosing you for good. how you cried for me then, i will never get again.

i can only apologize now. i'm sorry baby.

band of brothers: sentosa outing!

two years ago when i first joined sentosa's beach patrol, i was so different. i was shy and pretty quiet. everything was new and everyone seemed to be so foreign and mature. i felt intimidated i must say, for the working environment was filled with big guys who looked like they would smash me anytime.

and along the way, of course i made friends. i realize how wonderful the team was and how colourful it was to be part of the team because it was filled with different people of different personality and character. it was fun and it was precious.

thinking back, i can still recall so much. the stupid times and the serious ones. at beach patrol, learnt and i grew. things have changed no doubt about it, but i'm glad that there is still a group of us who stay together, no matter how much time we do not have for each other, i know and you all know that we'll still be there for each other :)

the recent outing we had was to sentosa to slack.

this is jason. i met him when he was in tp still. he had long hair then but now that he's serving the nation and doing us very proud, he has lost his locks. haa!
and here we have adrian. he's from np and he's got a girlfriend that is so smart and sporty that i'd kill to be just like her.
over here, we have augustine, our resident barney. he loves purple. from the purple crocs to the pruple whistle, you wouldn't miss out on him.
this, this is sebastian. he has many nick names, such as sebby crab, tim and etc. he's a walking subway according to many, what with him bring sandwiches with him to work. on the day the group of us decided to pig out and have fun, our dear brother, haosheng was on tower working. but to make up for it all, we shared our food with him. see we're so caring and nice.ian and adrian like to act cool all the time. seriously. HAHAHA!

when we tried to take a group photo with the help of two girls whom the guys were making a big hoo-haa over, they all decided that they wanted to block me. i'm in the photos i swear, just that the guys were too fat and managed to block me. bummer.then they decided to turn to their disgusting sick ways where they check each other out and act gay. see how happy they are. ewww!we attempted to play volleyball and i'd say we had much fun picking balls instead. of course we soon got tired and decided to cam whore (yes, guys are vain too.) as usual, they were all trying to block me out of the photos. try harder next time!we soon got lazy and the guys just sat around and played cards and not to mentioned eat! but sebby, me and jason decided to have have some girly talk. LOL.

we had dinner at haroborfront mall. everyone was burnt and slapping loads of alova vera on their red skin.you see at the end of the day, i love you guys very much. you've all been there surprising me for my eighteen and ninteen birthday and i really appreciate it all. when i'm happy or when i'm upset, you were all there. no one left anyone behind. please keep being there. even when i get married ok? HAHAHAHAHAAAAA!
