Yesterday ... Today ... Tomorrow
"The canterville ghost"is the best story written by Oscar Wilde ... it was intended for his children ... the magic of his writing lie in that there is beauty in every sentence ... it is not only intended for reading ... but to read aloud ... becuz u could feel the emotions, the sadness as you read it, that is i supposed the magic of his works ... no writer has captivated my attention as much as him ...
here it goes ... "you must weep for me for my sins, because i have no tears, and pray with me for my soul, because I have no faith, and then, if you have always been sweet, and good, and gentle, the Angel of Death will have mercy on me ... for against the purity of a little child the powers of Hell cannot prevail"
woke up this morning ... n felt a sense of sadness swept pass me ... I always look forward to BIG holiday ... but when it's over ... it fills me with a sense of sadness during early morning ... Christmas has been REWARDING ... haha ... got a couple of gifts ... n they are nice gift ... no WHITE ELEPHANT this time ... so naturally I''m smiling ... I got a frog from CK + SW ... kinda cute because they saw me take a pic of a tissue cover with a frog on it ... I think frog r cute ... but honestly I couldn't touch it ... it's too slimy for my liking
with the Christmas over ... there oni a few days of 2004 left ... I tink I muz be smiling tt 2004 is over ... 2004 has been a turbulent year ... I have my share of happiness + sorrow ... such extreme of emotions made 2004 hard to define ... experiences wise ... nothing beat 2004 ... after all it's the year where I travelled Europe ... met lotsa friends ... n made some good friends ... tt wat matter rite ... I may never see the northern light again ...but tis year 2004 ... I will remember
I will remember the days of February ... a shooting star raced across the sky ... when I'm in the middle of nowhere ... feeling cold with a punctured tyre ... called it magic ... I found my way after the shooting star flashed across the sky ... 2004 was a busy year ... busy adapting ... busy travelling ... busy partying ... n I never studied so much during my NUS life
second half of the year ... was a bit painful ... i returned to Singapore confronted with things I left behind ... what I need to do is obvious ... to cast away certain things from my thought ... it has been a long time ... but I have learnt to move on ... slowly but surely ... 5 painful months is the process ...
i wan to remember tis year in a positive light ... at least for 2004 I finished up all the things I started in 2003 ... be it preparing for my student exchange or launching my website etc so it's a pleasing thing ... becuz I'm slowly heading to the direction of delivering what I said which is important ... I don wan to be a NATO (No Action Talk Only ) ... haha
tdy I went shopping for stationary & den I cleared up my room ... so things r looking a bit more tidy ... but it's still nt gud enough ... tmr gonna go MUJI n get a filing cabinet ... too much papers made me really mad ... i donno whether I will be getting a room in NUS ... actually I don really relish staying in NUS ... cuz the room is too small... n i don have my own toilet ... after all when I'm pampered this much in Sweden ... it's difficult to downgrade ... plus i tink I will miss the warmth of home ... at least at home I can hug, squeeze my cousin or my nephew ... but travelling to n frm sch sux ... n NUS is closer to orchard ... so there is gud n bad ... all in all I looking forward to my last semester in NUS ... i'm sure it will end in a bright note ...
