Are we cold blooded..?

ah...its getting cold...


Yes...is the temperature dropping?....or so says this board found next to a bus stop. Indeed, in times like this ( holidays and jobs...) everyone seems very unattached to one another. Everyone is minding their own business, not like there is anything wrong with that, but but how about those ard u? Sigh, we always want pple ard us to take the first step, to ask, to initate. Why not you? Hence i've given up, tired of being disappointed by different people. After awhile u realise u care or give more attention...but...wats the point?... No bothers anyway right? Despite all the disappointing people, there are those who are supportive all the time, those who are there without u asking..those who do help you..those who do appreciate your existence.
So which are u on?

Just do it. In name of the nike slogan, the whole orchard was covered by foot today. Its not as if we hav never done it, its the circumstances which got us walking that was quite queer. Bus 14 took such a long time to arrive i literally knitted. Tsktsk. Got excited about moving to a new place after visiting ikea 2day. Must be the whole design streak. You must understand my family never really believe in hiring a designer...we do it ourselves. :) May 2nite be a cozy night to rest all the tired bodies and may 2morow's dawn be a sight of new hope and aspiration.

i fondly remember...

* Inspired by jan.....who blogged her sch pics..hehe..i wish i took more though..:)

I fondly remember the sound of the school bell
The sight of unsightly teachers
The taste of the fabulous canteen food
The smell of the chemistry labs and the field after a rainy day

I fondly remember the times when we knocked on the teachers door to beg them for advice
the sight of certain teachers that made our eyes roll
the mischievous ways we all did in one way or the other..

I fondly remember the laughter tears and conversation all day round.
When we were silly...when we were upset and when we all had stories to share....






u will be face to face with these words as u walk up the stairs...

Council room...where u can do everything..eat sleep study play

St. Andrew's Junior College

in between the classrooms

the corridor of the classroom blocks

view from the balcony and canteen...

Listen to your heart and pay attention to it

The title was inspired when i was watchin oprah primetime ( with anderson cooper, the cnn reporter) :
"you cant chose who/how u were born, but u can chose how u live your life"

4/28/2006 : The catalyst

Was talking to a friend just awhile ago, she hasn’t known me for long but she kind of knows me
quite well already. We were chatting along and here are some extracts:

Fren says:everyone is just waiting for cupid to strike. =)
Fren says:fate and time will tell. He/she doesn't have to rush for it
..................................................................

Fren says:actually opp. attracts only holds true for certain cases.
Fren says:there's no generalizations when it comes to r/ns.
Fren says:not only r/ns.. everything in fact.
Fren says:ppl are generalizing more frequently only because of the media... the narrow minded messages perpetuated by the media.
Fren says:it's difficult to explain but... just want to tell u tt u can't generalize too much

.…………................................

Fren says:but i understand. =)
Fren says:it's too late and i am too old and time is too little for me to break into your circle. hahaha-
Jia :.. says:but i'm used to keepin things to myself la
Jia :. says:i dun believe in burdenin pple
Jia :.. says:with my problems

Fren. says:actually, everyone has a way of managing their own lives. if u feel tt u r living the best way now, it's great =)
Fren. says:there's no need to conform to standards but...
Fren says:don't treat sharing stuff as burdening people. =)
……………………………………..

Fren says:it's ok
Fren says:but relax gal.
Fren says:u are too...
Fren says:tight i feel..
Fren says:the line is tauted..

Fren says:everyone has 2 sides to em'...
Fren says:what she cannot imagine doesn't mean it doesn't exist
Jia :... says:true true
Fren says:everyone needs a catalyst.
Jia :.. says:some stronger than another

The ears on you........

do u listen?

I like this picture. Took it while walking from arab street to bugis. Imagine if u did follow the instructions. U will definitely stop traffic. Talking abt traffic, my dad was stopped at sixth avenue 2day...cos there was a car on fire...ah!!!!. We had to make a U-turn. I wanted to see it la!

Imagine wat earth will say if u listened. Imagine wat u missed if u didnt listen to the people around you. Do you listen enough?. Its a common notion that u listen more to the people that u actually care about. Do you?. Do u tend to miss what people have to say cause u cant be bothered or perhaps u jus drifted. Its actually quite irritating that people 'huh' at u when u finish a sentence. Thanks man..thanks for the attention u have been giving to me. Then again, there are those who not only dont make use of their ears, they dun like to use their mouths too. Is it so hard to take intiative to ask or pretent you care. Ignite your sense pple. Show pple that they work or before u know it...people will stop using theirs on you.!!!
