"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. " 1 cor 13
I've been seeing a few break ups posts on facebook and it simply strengthened my resolve. The love the world looks at is hardly close to love. It's sad that the love that we have for our friends, partner, or even family has become so degraded from the actual standard of love God wants us to have. And with degraded love comes consequences. It's easy to love the lovable people, but when was the last time you tried to love someone detestable? It is not humanly possible, and it's really love that comes from God.
Bye aj8, Hi X42j :D Wednesday, September 22, 2010 at 6:31 AM
Got a new laptop! An ASUS X42J, really good deal for it's specs, quad core i7 processor even. was able to run bad company 2 on it on medium settings, pretty darn good for a 1350. Unfortunately it's now over at rp in some cabinet waiting for my collection tommorrow. I had to send it for configuration and had to take it by 5pm, my trip to tekong was supposed to end and send me back to RP by 430 but they went waaaay past the time. it does give you a feeling of restlessness to know that they "won't be responsible for any loss". Bah I'll just stop thinking so much and take it tommorrow.
Tekong vist was pretty interesting, not anything new I learnt but hey, got a few combat rations that I'll use in stong :D They said dun be shy and just take, so I did! hahaha
The bittersweet Sunday, September 12, 2010 at 2:30 PM
Yeap it's bittersweet. Bad news first. My phone died while I was running AHM, i reckon it had something to do with sweat and water, died by drowning. On top of that, my laptop died, keeps hanging after the first few mins, died of old age? Oh and strangely my sister's laptop has the SAME problem. Worse thing is, I still got 2 UTs to take and I NEED A LAPTOP TO DO SO. or else I will be taking it on paper and will not be able to refer to notes like everyone else. And it's the 2 harder modules! what luck.
On the bright side, NCC running club did quite well for AHM! here's the results for our category: 21KM LOCAL DEFENCE PARTNER TEAM 1 Joint Team 1 (OCS) 17:08:55 2 DSO Team 1 20:07:03 3 DSTA Team 1 21:42:09 4 NCC 23:29:05 5 RSAF Team 1 23:54:15 6 ST Kinetics 25:53:46 7 ST Electronics Team 1 27:02:07 8 ST Kinetics Team 2 27:06:31 9 RSAF Team 2 27:09:30
4th!!!! Hahaha and we beat RSAF :P I felt as if I could have done better and didn't hit my goal of 2hrs 15 mins. I hit roughly about 2hrs 30mins. But hey, I guess look onthe bright side eh? We didn't do bad at all!

Been awhile, as always. Few things on my mind right now.
First one's AHM, been corbo loading and it SUCKS. Darn never has pasta tasted that plain in my entire life. But well, I'll do what I must even if it's suffering for now, been training so long for it and I ain't gonna let myself, or my team, or my corps down. It's on this sundaaaaaay.
I'm still in the midst of my UTs as well. Should be focusing more on studies instead of doing unimportant things like this, facebook and youtube. daaarn. 3 down, 2 to go, they put the most difficult ones for last :( sports coaching and sports sociology. sigh, and it's directly after my AHM I'm so screwed.
Another thing, THE WHOLE WORLD is telling me to make a move on the girl I like. Darn. I hate it when this happens, like all your best friends tell you to do something that your reluctant to do. Why don't I make a move yet? Because I don't think the time is right yet, I don't wanna rush into things and end up breaking a heart. I don't want this to just be about me, it's not just me getting a girlfriend it's being there for that person. But i'm nowhere near even being close friends with her.
Perhaps I think too much, maybe I'm just scared, idk. Yes I know, I'm 20 this year and I havent had a girl in my life, but what's the point of having a girl only to lose her and turn bitter towards that person which you loved so dearly? Maybe I'm afraid, the nature of my job isn't something many girls can accept, being away for long periods of time, being away for unknown time and destination, not easy. As sheereen put it, "You'll never find one in singapore." Sadness. God give me a girl that's gonna prove that statement wrong.
