Love is sweet…

At the same time, I felt that friendship is equally as important. Especially true friendship… its hard to come by. Its so hard.

I think Eugene couldn’t agree more…

And friends ought to hug each other more often… we ought to have such a social culture Hugs is Free, what do you stand to lose. (Before I start charging $2 for a hug ;P)

Work is piling up and I kinda lost the momentum to work all day and night just to rush it out.

**RESERVE FOR AFTER GRADUATION UPDATE**

These photos is the same one I posted online,

Trying the graduation attire the day before.

Moses is up there. Ya-da ya-da (…if not now, when)

Never missed a chance to be caught by the camera.

nice…

look-alike?

my diploma cert with merit (and a prize)

In this 3 years…

I changed alot, yet my hairstyle remains unchanged.
I made many mistakes, yet Im closer to God.
I am a slacker, yet I still survive.
I had alot of friends, yet I prefer to be alone.

I gained an impressive cert, yet I lost a best friend.

(this was never meant to be a poem, so don’t expect patterns like how a poem should be like)

3 years of friendship was actually so fragile. Or maybe Im just not a very good friend…

That’s my life so far. Hoping NS life will be as drama as life in poly =)

Ciao!

(btw, I have yet to read my IDN magazine volume 15 no.6 =/)

God is in control of everything. He can give you anything. He can also take away what He gave you. I experience it first hand.

It started when I was in office. I received a call from a lecturer and was informed that I will be interviewed by a reporter. Was that cool or was that verrrry… cool!??? The first thing I did was to SMS my best friends (yea, plural). Basically, I tried to control my urge to tell the whole world. I was thinking… let’s just wait till I get on the paper.

The next day came, I did adequate preparation like… ehhh… shave, wash up and rehearse in my mind what I need to say to the reporter. Then after I cooled down, glorifying God came into my mind. I was thinking, beside thanking, lecturers and supportive parents, I need to thanks God. That’s when I realize I was like the fisherman, Simon Peter, in the Bible. When school of fishes appear around Simon Peter boat when he let down the net, he got so carried away into catching all those fishes. I always desired fame and when it came, I got so overwhelmed and excited that I forget to glorify God’s name. Only realizing after I cooled down. I felt really bad.

Then, someone from TDS call and said the interview is cancelled. I was a little disappointed. Perhaps, its a lesson God want me to learn. I  just continued my day. Going for the Diploma Show. Explaining to everyone who visit the installation. I notice that was this guy who kept taking pictures at my booth and he stayed with the installation for quite some time. I was wondering why didn’t this guy take pictures of other installation? The shadow detection thingie installation is cool too… so is the stand-in-front-and-video-start installation. I was about to ask him, when he told me, “I am actually from MediaCorp, and so sorry, I am actually in a rush to get this on tomorrow’s paper so can you tell me a little bit more about your installation?” In my mind, it was just this, “Me..me..mee..mediaCorp!!”

After I recompose my mind, we just did a simple, impromptu ‘interview’ and he left.

Next day, the first thing I did was to rush to the petrol kiosk and grabbed a copy all the newspaper I could get my hand on. Straits Times, Newpaper, and went into a frenzy looking for the mention of me. I flipped through the 2 papers twice and it was nowhere to be found. Then I recalled, ”Me..me..mee..mediaCorp!!” OH! MediaCorp! Newspaper by MediaCorp is most probably TODAY so I went to TODAYonline.com to read today’s TODAY. I flipped through the PDF… and… my eyes were fixed onto a black piece of column. This is it! I’m on Paper!

First thing that went to my mind is to write this post and tell everyone how God blessed me, His Child, and that He has the authority to Give or to Take Away ones talents, fames, fortune. Nevertheless, it is all within God’s Plan.

Btw… my name card is ready. Be sure to grab one from me when you see me. Its basically a rubber stamp whereby I stamped it on a blank piece of name card. This requires a lot stamping skills and patient =P
