I didn't bother what the doc said until I felt it myself. Some things we learn the hard way. Human beings can be rather stupid sometimes. Surprising how busy the holidays can be. Tell me what a "holiday" is again? Haha. Of course, there's no pressure like when I'm in school. Whee~! Don't really know why I'm still on the computer at this hour. I'm supposed to be up early for worship rehearsal just before the service tomorrow. I did my homework right this week and I'm happy with today's rehearsal. :) I'm hoping there will be more of these days. Uh, and I'm hoping the band will listen to each other more too. Hee. Time to get sleep. Lights out!

Spent some time to catch up with good friends on Thursday evening.


We had dinner at "Makan Sutra", just beside the Esplanade.
We went to play some arcade and snooker before heading down to Gloria Jeans Coffees at Marina Square.

Today went pretty well. I went for the "Fit Start" offered by California Fitness, and yes, they did try to persuade me to go for their training. But it's like friggin expensive yo.. 1 training session with a personal trainer is $100! It's effective and it definitely helps with a personal trainer, but the cost is like, woah. He was suggesting a 4month training which costs $4800! Yicks. But anyway, today's training was an encouragement to exercise. I realised after the training that I'm quite weak actually. Ugh, truth hurts. (So does my muscles...) I've gotta EAT more and EXERCISE more. Haha. (Exercise equipment there is great! Whoo!)

Wikipedia, Exercise benefits

Physical exercise is important for maintaining physical fitness and can contribute positively to maintaining a healthy weight; building and maintaining healthy bone density, muscle strength, and joint mobility; promoting physiological well-being; reducing surgical risks; and strengthening the immune system.

Frequent and regular aerobic exercise has been shown to help prevent or treat serious and life-threatening chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, obesity, heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, insomnia, and depression.

So it's good to exercise! Uh, yah, for guys, you get to look good too. Get some bulk, you know. Haha. I've got so much I wanna do during the holidays, I really hope I can accomplish most of them. (Don't wanna be too ambitious and say "all" ;P) And Baby, thanks for the evening. I'll keep in mind the conscious effort. :)

Exams are finally over and I feel so much more relieved. I really feel tons better. Happy that Eileen's feeling better too. She hasn't been feeling well for the past few days.

Today went pretty well. I had lunch with Angelo, Ivan, Poon, Sophia, Li Yun and Crystal at Marina Foodcourt after walking from First Thai (near school), to Fountain Terrace, to Food Republic THEN only to Marina Foodcourt. Hahaha. It was pretty comical. Sophia, Li Yun and Crystal had to leave after that, so Ivan, Angelo, Poon and myself went to watch a movie, suggested by Ivan. "Beowulf"- was the movie we chose, due to time constraint. The show was quite okay. Hmmm...overall, the show was pretty barbaric. Nice show, except that there wasn't much of a storyline. -_-" After the movie, Angelo had to meet some friends for a BBQ over at East Coast, so he left Suntec at about the time we met Andre and KC up. We went to Food Republic to rest and chat while we had some food. KC, Andre and I went upstairs to check out Samsung phones after that. There was this model which I thought was quite cool.

I think this was the one we saw. There's pink version too.



Jie sent an e-mail to me yesterday containing pictures of notes that children wrote. These were the few I thought were quite funny. Hee. Check them out. So cute. :)

Today was nice. Just a simple and relaxing day. How I wish everyday could be like this.

Don't you wish sometimes life could be like a computer? If something went wrong and you don't know how to fix it, reformat it. As easy as that- Just start over.

I'm feeling really damn tired, but I find myself typing away here. Since I'm here already, I'll type about today then. I did some finance and banking revision this morning before heading to Baby's place. I helped Baby pack some stuff cuz she's moving out soon. Decided to dye our hair too. I look at it now, and I picture my hair before it was dyed. It seemed like there wasn't much difference at all. Baby says her hair seems darker now. Her hair has had a natural shade of brown, you see. After the time spent at her place, I rushed down to meet Andre- I was about half an hour late. While I was having dinner with Andre, he convinced me to buy a shirt cuz I accidentally stained my shirt with the hair dye. But now coming to think of it, it was pretty dumb to waste money on a shirt when it was already night, since we were heading home soon. Hah, anyway I bought 3 pieces from Giordano, just those round neck tees that cost $5 per piece if you buy a minimum of 3 t-shirts. Yah. So we headed for CG after that. Today is one of the really really rare times that I didn't really enjoy CG. Don't know why I felt so tired and empty. Christians talk about having a purpose in life. What's my purpose? I don't even know sometimes if the step I'm taking is the right one. Ah, I'll sort all that out eventually. Guss I'm just being too emo. Exams are coming up. Can't wait for em to be over. Missed out a lil in school today. Some sacrifices, I gotta take. California Fitness is giving me a "Fit Start" personal training session on the 19th of this month. Kinda like to get me started using their equipment and all. (And they are also hoping I will continue taking up training sessions from them at a fee. Hah. That's business.) Hope to get a lil more toned up. Skinny me needs more mass.

Oh yes, terribly sorry I took so long to get the birthday pictures up.




This is the surprise they gave me in the morning- not too sure if you can see my hair standing still. Hah!







Sumptuous dinner with everyone including Grandma! :)
(Zoom in closer, you'll see happy Isaac. Hee. >.<)







Thanks for making my birthday a special one, guys.








Thanks for being here, Baby.









My family.






Yet to send the photos to them yet. Procrastination is a bad bad thing. Mm Hm.


I've been quite enthu about drums recently. Practicing stick works and watching drum vids and all. I came across this picture on the left. WAH LAU EH! The biggest drumset I've ever seen. I wonder who will play on that and fully utilize every single top, crash and whatever that's in it! Bagh~




This post is damn long. -_-
Ugh. Time to sleep.

Things seem to be getting better. The saying goes, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". This is what I'm hoping I will be. Stronger. I wanna piece my life back together again, and be even better as a person. There will definitely still be uncertainties, but I decide not to dwell in self pity any longer. I want to make improvements in my life. To face difficult situations with a positive attitude instead. Life is a journey, and people stumble sometimes. Everyone makes decisions in life- I just made mine.

This is probably just part and parcel of a teen's life. A maturing phase maybe?

Now I understand a little more of what it means by the phrase, "To restrain is strength".

Lord, my faith is shaky, and uncertainties plenty. Draw me back to you. Fill the gaps, from the tiny cracks to the biggest hole in my heart and make me whole. Be real in my life. Be God over my life.

I can't really remember what happened yesterday. I was reading my previous post and I can't remember what was it I saw. I don't know if it's a gift or a curse to forget so easily. One thing for sure now- I feel so numb. As though things around me don't matter much anymore. Things that I found to be normal last time, now I find just plain dumb and stupid. I've been using the F word pretty frequently too. I'm doing stupid things. Disappointed some people and shocked some also. Don't know what kind of impression I'm giving myself. I can't really be bothered about school work anymore. Who am I now? What's black, what's white?
