My friends and I

Dear....

Dear...
You stood by me when everyone thought I've failed
You never gave up even during the darkest hour
You always stand strong besides me
You are my strength, my pillar

You provide me with priceless knowledge
For without you,
I am incomplete

You are my treasure
My precious diamond
My dear mummy

Thanks for everything

However, very much looking forward to it, coz I can finally leave work early...hehe...nah...not loafing around...coz I need to attend my graduation....and most importantly meet my buddies....it feels sooooo long since we last hang out and crap about anything and everything.

That is something I look forward to soooo much...so fun....so syiok...hehe...alrite...shall go now...before I start blabbering nonsense!

I've sold my life to the devil

What a pity! This life is no longer mine. It has been taken away from me, the devils, their fault, life has become worse as the day passes. Now, I dont even have a minute for myself. Like now I have turned into a devil myself....and I am hating myself for this....I'm not treating my friends as equals. I no longer have time for them. A 5 min chit chat is also hardly to come by now. Thinking abt what to write is also getting more difficult...oh no....my mind is blocked....its all because of the monsters...sucking my blood. Soon it will be drained....and I foresee a rather sad ending, I super hope it would not happen coz I dread the day...I may just take drastic action which may be detrimental to my being.

Bogged with work

If by the end of the year I am still alive and kicking, I shall count my blessings. This week has been the worst week, and sadly, the worst has yet to come. I only discovered that I have tons of work to do for my dept and level. I need to actually check about 300 species of plants. How the hell I am going to do that, I seriously have no idea. Next, I was informed I have to work like hell the next few days for the Excel Fest. I don't care, I shall have some break. I will try and go out on Fri but sadly, I predict Sat is definitely out since I have to send the kids back to school and bring all the stuff back to school as well. Then during the meeting today, another news came. I am going to be in charge of the non-core dept website, me, who hates computer, is going to be in-charge of that....imagine....then, if that isnt bad enough, my class is chosen for blogging. The kids in my class will definitely love this. I had this in mind even when I was in NIE, however, I never thought I would have to do it weekly, its kinda stress to have to go according to the plan coz I feel blogging is something one does when one feels like writing, and not forced into. I will try and encourage writing to the kids, hopefully it is a success. Luckily, my class is not the only group, the other EM3 class will be doing with us as well...maybe this could improve the kids writing and tehy are able to express themselves better through blogging...so I shall give it my best shot. I know this is neverending, I chose the line, so I shall serve my time appropriately and please God, ensure I do not make a blunder out of this.

Disappointment

Untrue to tell you I am fine
Coz I am not
Untrue to tell you I am okay
Coz it is just pretense

Lying to tell you I am alrite
When you asked
Lying to tell you I am solid
When I am at rock-bottom

I dont wish to pretend
I dont wish to falter
But I know you will bent
And everything will alter

I dont wish for changes
I want it as it is
But I also know my wishes
Is not in God's list

I just cant sit
Coz my life dont not fit
Even when I have the wit
We can never hit

The Wake Between Life and Death

Though the lights are glimmering
It is glitters of darkness
Though the crowd is cheering
There is a sense of quietness

All one could hear
Is one's own breath
Fighting to keep it alive

The wires are still intact
But it is not helping
The machine is working
But it is slowly fading

All one could remember
Is one's desire to see the sun
Fighting to keep it alive

Death Act

A friend recently lamented about life and brought the issue of suicide. Instead of telling the person to go against it, I helped the person to think of ways to die..though the ways may not be exhaustive...and pleaseeeeeeeeee, those who read this, do NOT attempt any of it coz its juz a joke to make the person think and value life, so I added humour in some of the ways. And too bad I could not add all the emoticons, it would have been more impactful.

Below is the list and the consequence of each method:

1. Hit/bang your head till you die
You will die with excessive bleeding on your head, UGLY

2. Sing until you die
Your throat will swell so much it covers your face

3. Plunge to your death
You will be splattered and all the beautiful skin gone wasted

4. Gunpoint to yourself
Hmmm, but with a toygun, so in the end get bored and die with all the make up gone

5. Laugh till u die
Sure, you'd be so wrinkled, again...UGLY

6. Cry till no water left on your body
Imagine, shrink yet bloated...visualize the reasons for that

7. Freeze to your death
Then you will die like a ghost, so ugly with wrinkles all over

8. Drown yourself to death
You will look horrific when bloated, just imagine

9.Scream to your death
Like no. 2, only worst

10. Punch yourself till you die
OUCHHHHHHHH! Then you need a pyschiatrist if you are able to do that, not death

11. Saw to your death
But must watch those thriller movies first, and you must also be a pyscho

12. Vomit till you die
Die with puke all over, SMELLLY

13. Burn yourself to death
Pain Pain Pain

14. Tickle yourself to die
Wrikles again, especially on the eyes area

15.Kick yourself till you die
But you need to cut your legs first, saw look at saw

16. Run till you die
Hmmm, imagine all those muscles bulging on you, and you will perspire and all...yucks

17. Do acrobats till you die
But you might die with your face on the butt if you fold yourself wrongly, UGLY!

There should be more ways, just can't remember them anymore..You can add on if you need to...please feel free to do so...but friends....thinking of the ways is much harder than just valuing your life as it is, so make the wise choice...choose to live....life is never easy, the challenges make life worth to stay alive. Be smart, not drab!

Sentosa

On Monday, June 12, my NIE mates and I went to Sentosa for our group's bonding session, not that we are not bonded enough, hehe, we are going out with each other a lot...hehe...especially lately. But thank goodness, if not, I am sure I would be more miserable than I am now...yeah

Anyway, the things we did we

Luge and Skyride
Carlsberg SkyTower

Those rides were fun, especially the first one. Gosh the Luge ride was like a go-cart, super fun, can speed, but I was behind a weirdo who did not know how to get the car in the rite mode, was going on a frenzy, and me being me, don;t want any injury to myself went pretty slow, just to avoid the crazy driver. My friends went real fast I think. They were back much earlier than I am. But it was fun nevertheless

Some memorable moments: Picture moments as usual

Exterminate this pathos

Demolish it
Abolish it
Slaughter it
Abrogate it!

This sorrow
This pain this
This desolation
This degradation

Punish me
Hurt me
Injure me
Shatter me

I'm gone
I'm done
I'm a coot
I'm out of the boot

So it's over
So it's leaden
So it's finish
So it's goodbye

Exterminate it
Clear it
Cleanse it
This pathos in me

Princess of Darkness

Perplex as the mind is
Rattling on the past and present
Interwoven in between
Nestled by the darkness
Complicating the mind and soul
Entangled between reality and fiction
Staggering for the truth to emerge
Sensing a misfortune in life

Optimism is beyond grappling
Fantasy is the infelicity

Dumbing the forsaken mind
Angling towards disaster
Ravishing the moments as it comes
Kinder deprivation is seek
Nothing seems an exhilirating
Endless pain at extrimity
Sunking for sure
Stumbling at terminal

Confusion

You always disorientate me
Abashing me into deeper misunderstanding
Unsettling this mind
Into an uneven madness

You keep me in daze
Muddling into my inner sense
Rioting between the good and evil
Shambling me into the ghetto

Destiny

I get it now
I understand now
I am insignificant to you

Didn't realise
Never knew
I am gullible to you

Will end it all
Will stop it now
This game we've had

Never to worry
Never to bother
Have deleted everything

Let's just forget
Let's just head our way
To our life's destination

This smile

This smile
May just be a façade
It may not reflect the truth

We are playing our roles here
Keeping the smile to make others happy
If we can’t be happy,
Why not let others be happy

Lost Right Now

Tried as I might
Can't get the life back
Fight as I might
Can't block the memory track

Lie as I would
Can't hide from you
Bluff as I would
Can't wish to be true

I will try to block it out
I will attempt to get it out

I will survive the bout
I will clean the doubt

Humanity

Do not hope for gold
As you may just sell your soul
Do not wish for plenty
As it could lead to misery

Ensure we don't let it control our live
Make us no better than a ruthless mammal
A soulless creature with no warmth

Anorexic

What is anorexia?
In basic form, it is eating disorder, which most of my friends are having. I may have had the same problem once upon a time, but why does one become anorexic. Before I tackle that question, let me go through the tale-signs of an anorexic person (ju, please look thorugh this...impt for u!).
1. Refusal to maintain normal body weight
2. Denial that the person is skinny
3.Scared of becoming fat when they are actually thin
4. Kept saying they are fat when they are not
5. Feeling depressed, withdrawn or compulsive behaviours
6. Having unnecessary fears about gaining weight

Well, maybe there are a lot more tell-tale signs that I am not aware of. But surely, having gone through all these I may think that I may have had that problem once though lucky for me, I was able to get out of it before it became detrimental to my life. My reasons for that is stress. During a certain period, I undergone a huge stress which I was unable to handle. And the best way, or the only way I know then, something that I can handle and tackle easily, my weight. I became skinny and kinda sickly, Did my stress go away? Definitely not, I still have to overcome the stress and face it. But I am lucky and not everyone is as lucky. So what is the reasons for people to face this problem?

According to this site I read, this disease usually appear in bright, attractive young women between the ages of twelve and twenty-five, although there are both older and younger exceptions. (. On the same site, you can read the people who are at risk of having it. But I will highlight generally those who are high-risk of anorexia

1. Female adolescents are generally at risk of anorexia nervosa. In addition, the following are particularly at risk:
ballet dancers;
athletes;
perfectionists;
over-achievers;
those who have been generally over-weight.

So the best cure to this is by preventing it. We shoudl have a positive attitude in life and not develop unrealistic goals and aims for ourselves. And most improtantly, live life to the fullest and happily to our fullest potential, never push ourselves insane as it may cause problems which we never invite.

Why

Why ask
When you don't care
Why bother
When you don't give a damn

Why pretend
When you don't bother
Why act
When you don't even explain

Shut off!
Sure...
You are good

Shut off!
Sure...
It could be solve

Whatever it is
Won't bother
Whatever it is
Won't care

Will just let it go
Will just set it free
This ache, this mind
