The week passed, the haze passed.
Tue was the start of the haze,
wushu was almost deserted,
Helped around as Jo had personal matters.

On Wed went for "Now You See Me" with wushu
A really brilliant plot, the tagline, "The closer you see, the less you'll see"
Though lots of unanswered questions, it is still a brilliant thriller.
Spend 20 bucks on food as the wushu ppl has not eaten,
yet most of them are quite full,
so quite a lot of wasted money,
furthermore going to MicroBrewery with WC spent again. Sigh.

Fri wushu was cancelled due to haze, so I went for Yfest,
so as Sat and today, Sun.
Y fest was quite alright, just supporting and enjoying music and local talents.
Sigh, really, if only I had a little better appearance and a better voice.
Bought an Ukulele too, concert Ukelele.

Friends.
was talking to a friend who has been close with me for a year.
I told him that I don't know why,
The closest people I know, drifts after a year plus,
and just as we reached a year,
another one came by suddenly,
I really do not know what this symbolizes.

Then, just as I was about to write emo stuffs,
the song played in my playlist,

细水长流.

It means when the water drips slowly and silkily,
it could flow longer.

So I thought of all the people I that I was close with,  
and that I suddenly realized same problem, 
I might be too rushed.
For example, wushu,
They are not too close to me,
not many of them really knows my emotions and life,
but they are the ones who would help if I were to be in trouble,
and we are still together even though our paths differ.
Yet again, there are lots of clashes in interests and all that. 
Well, we are the most diverse group ever.

Well, back to the song,
the song talks about guitar, music, dreams, and friends
it's really amazing how a friend gave me a guitar,
and then I was back in the musical track, 
and led him back to guitar too,
and also gave him much life,
much food, much exposures to the world,
much knowledge, much perspectives,
and he learnt fast too,
and even paid it forward to people around him,
that their attitude and all might not click with me.

Amazing friend I have, really unexpected. 
Well, wanted to buy an Ukulele for him, 
but due to financial restrictions I couldnt,
guess just need to wait for 1 more week till his surprise come.

Yet, now that my own financial power is depleted,
guess I couldnt do much already,
really up to him to seek adventure already,
and a test to see if I actually "have" a friend
or "bought" a friend. 

Speaking of that, my cell group has not met up for a month,
as what I predicted last year.
Without the leaders or my initiatives,
they would not even meet.
How to have bond like that?
The only person who after a while didnt meet,
would actually sms to catch up with us and all,
is just one person, that HIM.
Actually bought souvenirs for them during cruise,
luckily somehow I had this feeling to keep it first,
and distributed to those I am sure that would stay with me for quite some time.

Sounded selfish?
Well, no choice, hedonist,
well, at least I had lots of fun!
having huge xmas parties,
steamboats, laughter, dares,
exchanging presents,
bballing, fishing, ecp, ikea, kite flying....

Anyway, during the haze, I learnt alot, 
about empty promises, about everyday heroes,
I was so inspired by Josiah Ng that I also bought a box of mask
to be distributed to hawker and construction workers.
Also, a friend who actually went down to tamp from the west,
despite all her team backed out, and the PSI 400 haze,
to continue her project for the elderly. 

Today service was about Transactional Love or Relational Love
Do we love, to earn favour, cover consequences, avoid punishments,
or do we love, to be in awed, to appreciate, to put Him up on pedestal? 

1J4:18-20 wrote that Love transcends all fear,
fear include anxiety, anxiety of future, anxiety of mistakes,
but I guess it's really harder to do than in words,
I guess everyone would have a time in their lives,
that they feel tainted beyond hope,
but well, keep the faith! =)

And the verse continued to "We loved as He first loved.",
Reminds me of Micah 6:8 to Love Mercy, about the geylang YWAM.
Then, also, to Jim Elliot, who died in a missionary trip,
“He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” 

Guess he was referencing to Mark 8:35
“For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, 
but whoever loses his life for me and for the gospel will save it”

Everyday heroes~~

Weekend passed real fast, went for pub crawl and club on Sat after sermon by KG. He is really awesome guy too, good father, loyal xtian, responsible employee. He was the only one his company actually arranged a big farewell party for his resignation. What he said were not new, but just reminders, which we often overlooked.

He spoke about walking with The Lord. From Deu - 10:12, even when the ways of The Lord is hard to comprehend at our limited intelligence. He picked up Joseph from palace sends him to desert yet picked up Moses from desert sends him to palace.

Then he introduces Psalm 1, something I've read yet was not as in depth as him, he's really awesome, he talked about meditating with his words and even if dont understand just hold on to it first. And also he encourages us to spend time doing quiet time. It is where God speaks. Psalm 119 too.

Then he talked about faith, mentioned about Jericho, Abraham and the guy that tried to move a huge rock. It is that step of faith in obedience to God that counts, the process, not the deed. Hebrews 11:6, if no faith can't please God.

Guess this sermon is a reminder of remaining in him, oh and the reminder of Fathers Day, time to take some time praying for the father-less, I have a long list. A, C, W, M, J, Z, S, G, N, Y, A, J and T also, and all the great Father/to-be.....

So then I went for Pub Crawl and Club, just observing, experiencing, socializing.

So then on Sun is wushu, then met with Nick for Beerfest, then met with Tai and his mum an DQ for Beerfest. According to programme guide, guess we have missed out alot for the past 2 days. Tai and his mum soon got bored and went for Comedy Asia, which Tai didnt record it...... dont know what he thinking, oh well... So I went to wait for DQ.

Well, seems like they are not having as much fun, or perhaps for me its the beer, but I think I was damn high at the Killer Queen show!! So cool the whole crowd actually came forward and join the beats. The band was as if Queen resurrected, the hair, the goatee, the style, the fist pump up, the jerking, the rock!! Woohoo!!! Was unfamiliar with Queen but was taken high by them!

Right, so spoils of war, 12 bottled, 3 cans,
drank 9 bottles, 2 cans during the event.
I'm really surprised the amount of beer I drank.
Though i still have longing for the Crafted Beer at AdstraGold.

Oh and a friend CH wrote in to advice me not to drink anymore,
so touched and grateful for such friend,
though always Im unable to do anything productive or fun,
so I promised him till end of June only 1 time drink.

Then stuck with the Queen songs till now........
Along with 縱貫線, King of Leon, Sex on Fire, Bon Jovi....
Purple Jam! Nirvana! Guns and Roses!! ROARRR ahahs
I think these songs are cool, the lyrics, the expressions.
So yea Im back to rock person now~~~
Awaits Baybeats~~ hahas

Below is one of their song, sadly, in this society, appearance means really alot! Like Ou De Yang used his
animation to mask his true appearance gained popularity, then when he revealed himself, the uphill days are over. Many talents are born first by their appearance, at least must have a certain level of charm then and clear the stage hahas. Even in anime, SAO, if not his appearance in the first place, where got girls give him chance to "show off" his other talents and traits. If not, his is unbelievable skills lorh. Hard to stand out in the society, oh well, retreat to me myself and I world, where I can be anything I wanna be. Seriously, if only I have a nicer voice, and a better appearance.

Somebody To Love - Queen

Can~ anybody~~ find me~~ somebody to~~ love~~~~~~~!!


Ooh, each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(Take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry)
Lord what you're doing to me (yeah yeah)
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love ?

Yeah
I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work till I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord somebody (somebody), ooh somebody
(Please) Can anybody find me somebody to love ?

(He works hard)
Everyday (everyday) - I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Ah, got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe in
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Oh Lord
Ooh somebody - ooh somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love ?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (You just keep losing and losing)
I'm OK, I'm alright (he's alright - he's alright)
I ain't gonna face no defeat (yeah yeah)
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day (someday) I'm gonna be free, Lord!

Ooh somebody - ooh somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love ?

Whazzup
Well, this week was rather busy.

On Mon,
I stumbled across AdstraGold MicroBrewery, a really cool place to hang out, some improvements to be made such as the ceiling wiring and all, and I see lots of opportunity for this crafted beer place to grow. Thus I'm even thinking of investing into it! Then a friend, T, commented that I should do something within my means, and not touch the family pot, but seriously, Im more of a spendthrift than a saver, and a useless bum, I only got ideas, but no means to do any shit. And yes, I cant stand status quo, and felt a great pressure to really do something out of life for the 8 mouths in my family and be one of those awesome ppl lke many in my life, who started doing cool stuffs at my age or younger. Why am I still wasting my time?

On Tue,
Morning I went for the Flip Table 2013 event. I must thank the organizers for such an event. Among the hustles and bustles in this city state, they have seeped in a little interesting surprise here and there from Flashmobs to Morning Messages, and Flip Table! It's also nice that they have made it free of charge, so it attracted a few elderly to join in the fun hahas! It's really simple, just join in the queue and flip the damn table. For such an event however, they need to find table sponsors, mechanics, planning and executing it. Non-Profit. How many of you out there would take some time off your busy work schedule, and many other responsibilities, to actually plan such an event, which no practical purpose or profit?  

So after that, we went Food For Thoughts for the very first time. I like the creativity of their food. Another good food treat for dq, lucky him!

On Wed,
It would be DQ last day before he goes for his camp. I ordered Pizza Hut due to a long craving for it. Also, I realized he has been sticking with me for a year already, and from all exp, when someone is close with me for a year, most probably we will eventually drift off. So whatever will be, just let him enjoy a good pizza meal ba. Que Sera Sera. And I have also signed up for ibanking and also paid the "surprise".

After he left, I went to Comedy Club Asia. It was a preview show for their BeerFest performance. Wootz! Well it is located at the famous shee-sha street, Haji Lane. Quite cool, a cosy place, full of people laughing their asses off. Lots of jokes and insults but it was all for entertainment. Guess I know where to go on a boring wed night from now on. =)

On Thur,
The stupid workshop was boring, so I went home, and CH came. Slacked here and there as usual, somehow we always ended up doing nothing much, but he always comes with snacks, this time, crackers. Cool friend indeed. Then, N and WC came and we went with our food tour. We tried Laksa-Nia, they are really awesome! Applause their creativity for the fusion dish of western and eastern culture of Laksa Laksagna, and great culinary skills and spices for Laksa Goreng, yet their Singapore Laksa and Penang Laksa isnt that great =(

On Fri, Supposed to go clubbing, but then Bedok4 wanted a night out after J driving test. He failed. Sigh, must have been a hard blow on him. He told me that he felt lousy cuz he got nothing outstanding, and he never seek for help, he's always saying everything is alright when it is not. He basked with his momentary glory here and there, we always let him do that, and being the biggest, he tend to feel he has a more matured thinking, but I thought that he actually is a sad dude, trying to psycho himself that he is not all useless, but he has been growing up being a puppet, internalized conformity, that's hard to break, and I'm so afraid of his future, for he is one without much goal, without much passion, nor motivation, and frankly I think T among us, is the genius of all, be it manipulating or capabilities. 

Anyway, so I stayed on, did nothing much either, and as usual the comment "K voice woke me up" hurts me, but oh well, smiled, used to it. Ive been singing all my life, couldnt even get on stage at K2, and always been labelled noisy. Sigh. No musical talents, fingers too short and made too weird to play guitar properly, piano isnt that great either, lousy at mouth techniques like harmonica or whistling, so just picked these up for hobby ba. At least, when I'm alone, I wont be bored. There's always this serenity and good sensation of being alone, you can blast the music loudly, play instruments wrongly, and noone would give a damn.

It's like, through the years I think I'm more accustomed to the superficial side of entertainment industry than to seek for friendship that is ideal to me, cuz I think I tend to find faults in all of them, and I do noticed lots of flaws in me as well. It's selfish to base friendship to own "happiness" but then I find I rather want lots of fantasy-like, illusions, of fame and glory, and acquaintnces, than to be close with anyone too long that it pokes. Hedgehog theory again, hedgehogs in winter, too close pokes each other, too far freezes. As Grandma says, "just be neutral".... but somehow, I always have this drive to want everyone enjoy the world I live in, so I would enforce my world into theirs. Unrealistic..... Dumb... Guess I havent mastered martial arts yet too, cuz in spear, the front hand is the "sand hand", like grasping sand, not too tight not too loose, to allow most flexibility and fluidity.

Then, night out with Tai all the way till 1am. Amazes me how close these ppl can be with their mums and always think that my treatment to mum sucks, though objectively we have improved lots, but it isnt ideal! Sigh. Oh and cousin's friends came, played till late night 4am. Regretfully, I did not on internet and missed someone's msg, I knew she needs someone to talk too, and someone's not there, hope I could help, but again got this feeling its lame issues and she gonna take me for granted either way, but still, just got this urge to help, but I failed, again.......

The weekend passed.
Annual 10,000 dumpings for the needys
55h.... 3h slp... simply amazing.
As JL said, bracing through all these,
knowing at least people have benefited.

From the set up, to the event, to the closure, everything was a miracle. Its amazing that we are able to pack up in an amazing speed of 2h less. Ofcoz, which much JL aura. Well, throughout the event, do noticed that some people are looking badly at him, labeling him fierce or bossy. However, I think, if he is not there to quicken things up, there would be chaos.

Someone commented, "I cannot think of anything he cant do", I added, "perfectly". Means everything he did was at such high quality and perfection. 

Well Ive been helping out at the event annually, but never was so tired yet gratifying. Guess Ive made a wise decision to stick around. There is really so much planning and logistics to do off the screen. Like how few of us was up early to prepare rice in the wee hours of the morning, making herbal tea, and washing up for them to have immediate utensils and cookery to use. Then, every night as people leave, we cleaned up the place, foraging the place for "lost" utensils and gather them back, wash them, etc. Then, it's all the logistics that we had to set up with little men on sat night so that there are lesser things to worry on sun, and ofcoz, to print seating arrangement and program flow at midnight so there wont be chaos. But look at it this way, he is not a degree holder sitting at office deck ordering things to be done, he personally showed us the way to efficiently get things done, he himself are able to deliver a certain standard thus he demands such standard. He's not all talk but no action, he is able to command with authority of status and action. 

Really a hilarious scene to see when I was eating, I looked at the goodie bag section, like stroll in the park picking flowers hahah! Then, JL came, set up tables and all, and the speed hasten up 600%!! Within the same time I finished one plate of food (I ate 2 plates during this observation, second plate lesser food ofcoz), they produced so much more completed goodie bags. And his fry rice techniques, so fast, so swift, so tasty, and his laminating, like machine hands!

Being the "pakaliao" guy is not easy. Basically we walk around helping anyone in need. Thus we have to know everything well, or at least know who to approach for help, we can redirect the inquiries but never ignored them. Then, while doing that, we have to do PR work, we have to go around encouraging, thanking, and motivating the volunteers, crack some jokes here and there for a conducive work environment. This also includes noticing areas with louder noises to ensure no quarrel is going on, and joining in the jokes as they guffawed, to have a more "people-person" feeling. Oh and all these, amongst the need to appear for bday celebrations and all. This are like a welfare thing, like the Ice Kacang uncle. Despite the committee saying its waste of time and all that, look at how one simple thing could boost the morale of volunteers so much!

It;s really a different thing if you see for yourself how a few men managed to set up everything on fri evening, under the hot sun, and slp for 2h, still have to maintain the clarity in his thinking. He must appear in all three days, and off screen he is already planning and running the next day event already. He have to plan and get measures done to coordinate all his 17 faculties in the event. From that I understand the role of a manager. You have to conserve energy as much as you can, as at the end of the day, when all left, it's all up to you to do everything, literally everything.

This time, there are some extraordinary people I would like to thank. First is the one that stayed with me through the first night. Not only that he accompanied me through the night, he also helped to retrieve my wallet back. Seriously, rather rely on ourselves than "authorities". On sat after fetching a volunteer from mrt, I realized I my wallet dropped out. So I called sbs which was closed, and sent in an online application. Then, I dialed 999 to get them to call the bus driver as I thought through the trip to Toa Payoh the wallet woudl be mobbed. Yet, after finding all the details, they said "sry we dont have sbs number, pls check with them:, I was so raged I said "then why the hell do you need so much details in the first place if you cant do any shit?" seriously........ Anyway ofcoz, on sun he was there to help too, great friend.

The person that stayed the second night too, was very grateful for him, he came for 4 hours that night, in which I was able to sleep 2 and a half hours. That was sat night. After all of the volunteers left at 6pm, a few of them stayed on to steam the dumplings till 8pm, and then JL was there to wait for me till 10pm. The sight of him when I came back, sitting there alone, in a huge tentage, empty, and "boxes" surround him, just made me sad. It was as if "abandoned" old man, packing up to leave or forced to leave, leaving behind a big empty  "asset". Perhaps it was just my over-thinking, but still that sight saddens me. 

Then it was the one who volunteered to stayover but I declined due to his age. He was not proactive, totally unsure what to do, but as I snap by finger and "ordered" him to do work he would give his all. To the extend when we were waiting for the lift he carried the whole stack of chairs up the staircase himself! Crazy! He is the one that when all his peers left he stayed on. Kept teasing him that "with age comes wisdom" by using energy-saving means to do his work hahas! One day will generously reward him!

With him was another friend who mistook dumplings as dim sum prawn dumplings hahas. He stayed and helped alot, especially during the setting up, that needed alot alot of strength. All these done by 3 non gym ppl and kids and ladies, seriously, all those "gym" ppl sitting around downstairs, but still JL was glad they came to help. He said it was his 1 student that called in the group of them.

Then ofcoz, the one that offered the cab so I could retrieve my wallet at Toa Payoh. She is one active volunteer with a generous heart, working with Singapore Institute of Mental Health. She expects no returns for her contributions and all beyond the miles as she help. Enjoyed doing community work as a social worker, she stayed there 8 years and counting. Though tiring, she said he enjoyed the event thoroughly, despite waking up early to reach the venue and all, as she was happy that "she had participated in such meaningful activity, and did meaningful stuffs", she said on sat.

After all, everything he had achieved, he stayed so humble. They never mentioned about their organisation or promote it at all unless was asked. I saw him talking to random strangers on sat morning, "there is no religion is doing good", no matter who, just help. hahas he was smart to say "I dont believe you can wrap, come help" hahahs! Trap!!

Well, then there was a few of them that came from the sunday morning exercise program and decided to drop by the kitchen to help prepare the food, voluntarily. Felt so happy to see people putting in effort for charity programs.

Well, there is alot to say, alot to comment, but all humans have un-satisfactions too. Overall, Im really glad I stayed throughout the event.

It's 2am and tthe rain is falling,
Here we are at the crossroads once again...

Nah rain had stopped,
We are doing night guard duty at the annual 10,000 dumplings event.

Spend 2h talking with JL and his awesome younger days.
Really amazed by the amount of stuffs he had done, been through, and planned

He didnt feel too much about all his glory thats gonna be gone soon
He mentioned 花无百日红.
All the glitters will one day cease to dazzle....

Sigh, it's true, if finding disciples is easy,
there would be tens and hundreds of lky already,
and more lkk hahas.
But still I really cant bear to see such a culture,
such a long establishment, go down like that.

Moreover, Grandmaster Chen Yu He
once told JL that wushu cant feed him,
ask him to look for the silver industry.
Yet he is able to bring wushu into such a peak.
Awesome

Yet, I dont have that JL aura yet,
unable to inspire,
or rather unable to do any shit...

Shall go to the very basics of wushu,
so I can point out their "hearts",
as students, they must be feeling frustrated
as they failed to do certain things repeatedly
but not everyone got that gift of teaching,
and looking at the next generation,
I think mine is screwed up, theirs is worst......
sigh............

What is the point of doing so much things?
Where in the end it will all fade away.....
He also mentioned life in entertianment industry is boring after awhile.
He rather do events like in RCs and community.
At least, we know ppl are benefiting

Also......
He helped me "secure" an intern position!!
Wooootz hail JL!!!
Amazing, he got all the connections to keppel,
RCs and all the big companies, and BREADTALK!!

Simply amazing.....

Well, glad that a friend accompanied me through the night,
got so much things to say to him but didnt find the right time and atmosphere,
is like what i wanna say is that I want him to have more self control,
I dont mind whatever he do but he got quite a charm,
and dont want him to be haphazard,
and settle down only with the right one,
and dont follow someone's footstep....
The flesh is weak
after all..... some things are not up to us,
is up to fate, what and where u are born too....
sometimes, heriditary........

Sunday, June 2, 2013

Sat was a relaxing day.

Slept like a log, thus skipped my meeting. Anyway, so I was about to go to ccp pub, but then I saw the dark clouds.Thus I said, if rain heavily EXACTLY on bedok inter, I will go ccp, if the sky is clear the when I step onto the bus stop, I will go sat service.

So it was a heavy sudden downpour, EXACTLY at bedok inter, so I got out at the next top since I was on 67, to head to ccp, but the rain stopped...... and 24 didnt appear for 15 mins! and 222 passed me twice. So on the next 222, I boarded to church.

So that day's sermon is about grace,
about loving grace, not doing grace, but LOVE grace
Taken from Micah 6:8, about do just, love grace, walk humble

The service started off with the Alabaster Jar,and Judas claimed it could be used for greater purpose, and Jesus rebuked him.What this meant is the intention,the woman's intention is to give all she can afford.

So that msg is about giving all to Jesus. Then, the service transits into the first church, on the chapter of acts, where the church do acts of kindness to the community, esp to the poor. "Therefore I command you" appeared at Matthew to make disciples, and also appeared at Deuteronomy to be openhanded to the poor among the community. This was what the first church did.

So there were examples from YWAM movement, where they go onto the streets of Geylang to save people, just as what the first church did, they do not grow by evangelism but mainly by worshiping with their lives, their hearts, to care for the poor, give to the community, lending their listening ear. Really amazed by their willingness to go through all these, they can waste alot of efforts, many in vain, and do not reap the best transformation testimonies, but they didnt give up, because....... it's about how much would you willing to waste, for a greater glory? 3 steps forward and one step back, 5 steps forward and 10 steps back, how many efforts are wasting away? but there endured on, and that made me think, about how I give up easily on people. 

So after the sermon, my questions were, the first church "sold possessions" to give to poor, but who are the buyers? If the world is that way, to sell, creating supplies, who were to buy? And if all practice this socialism, would it hinder progression, compromise growth, halt productivity?

Nonetheless, it was an interesting sermon, cuz I dont think I learn much from YC thus services suits me more.

Sun, wushu as usual, then accompanied mum to art science museum, then find dq, along the way came across wonderful designs by NUS at library, and then eat good food around town, esp the chicken rice stall besides toy museum which I havent eat before.

Anyway, lately a trainee was talking to me about quitting at end of year. Somehow, dont know what to say larh. Cuz when I strike the deal with sx, 3 conditions, one is to commit, 2 is actually to pass down the style to the next generation. Dont think that will be happening.

Guess sx would be really disappointed in the end. He tried so hard, to learn various styles, to transfer to trainees so that there would be a passing on culture, and that compromises his mastery on his own style, and then all he see is people not turning up for training, lots of disruptions here and there, not putting in efforts, laziness, no passion. Sux to be him.

Well, guess we should be glad that at least got trainees, it was left with the 4 of us, and we managed to expand it till now. Oh well, after all, alot of the work is done by "trials" to attract trainees to come anyway, supposed to be no strings attached, so after all guess its about passion and bonding. When they had not establish the kind of bond we 4 had last time, hard to get them to be passionate and willing to bring up the culture. 

CL is our last hope to pass on the tradition.
If he fails.....
Our traditions would be gone for good.......
=(
5000 years of culture and tradition,
guess the society moved on,
this is called cultural lag,
when the non-material culture couldnt catch up with the material culture
then comes distillation, and finally extinction......

One day, the oldest will fade away, 
for the new ones to rejuvenate the energy......
sometimes I wonder if there is a need for my such persistence.......

Saturday, June 1, 2013

酒的滋味,百转千寻, 就好比人生一样, 悲喜交杂, 甘苦风尘, 只有经过这番苦涩, 才会唇齿留香, 让人回味, 就好比人生一定会碰到好多挫折与磨难, 只要跨得过去, 自然就会长大成熟, 只要信念坚定, 就可以勇往直前

The taste of wine, complex and intricate, like life, a concoction of bitterness and sweetness, happiness and sadness. It's no wonder children do not like it. It's only when maturity, and been through many hardships and glory, that we find its after taste, tingling in the mouth, like memories left behind, and as we breathe in and out, its aroma, taste, flow through like the wind, gone after some time, but we will yearn for it, and then we will continue drinking, till the end of time, till drunk.

This week is quite alright.

Mon had make up class, spend the day for leisure.
Tue pass real fast, at night,
spent 2h digging up old photos.
This was when I realized I've been through so much
in Wushu Hub. Really miss those fun times.
We really did a lot of things,
had lots of laughters
and did lots of stupid things
and made memories.
It is really impressive that we sustained Bedok CC wushu till now.
We had such great history,
Now that we had 3 classes,
of different teaching approach and etc,
felt really great to be expanding on wushu culture.
Had much to say on wed, but the level of enthu
made me slipshort everything and get it over and done with.
Doing it for a memory archive,
the class is not worth my time and explanation.
Wed report came in, started doing the proposal,
And thur passed like bullet with lots of info,
and then comes today,
cancelled Nafta, holiday steps in,
wushu class early dismissal.
One student skipped, 4 others skipped.
First skip is literally =)
I brought ropes for him haha!

Oh yes! Major highlight, thur early dismissal made me run all the way to Lynda Ann to buy a set of awesome chocolates for DQ and his Sis, and family, along with cheese fries, drinks and waffles. Spend some time there, taught him More Than Words tabs, some old songs, and just chat.

Told him to measure himself by the people who measure themselves by him. Glad about his influence on his peers, namely someone S. Amazing he had come so far, but his academy makes me super worried, and yet cant do any shit for him, totally dont know what to do for him already.

HAHA! but the major surprised not revealed yet muahahhaha.

Again I think, was it all worth it, the time, the effort, the slp, the emotional and social aspects. Dont know why, cant seems to find that perfect relationship, no matter what kind, just one that totally comfortable and happy with.

Well, the week is over, yet TED and Wushu lies ahead before exams.
Next few posts are probably exams related. =)
