Havent blogged in a long while. Had many thoughts about serious issues, but not enough to write a proper dissertation on. Heh.
Been around many people and new experiences these past month. Each situation is a new lesson about myself, about people, about the world around me. Just when i thought i knew myself as a [...]

I try to keep to my 10-minute-poem rule. =)
- – – – – – -
Masked
Altered human landscape;
painted eyes and faces.
The world was transformed
before my line of sight.
People, I know,
or think I do,
bustling to and fro.
Flashes -
into the future of ours;
we know not of
what is yet to come –
reflect off strained grins.
Excitement, indeed;
genuine intent for memory-aid.
Fear* [...]
rebel-in-the-making
Posted in Food-For-Thought on November 12, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Been thinking about this for a while: why rebellious ideologies have been stirring up hot within me these past 2 weeks.
At first i thought, “hmm could this be stemming from resentment, since im not performing up to my usual standard this time round?” And this is not entirely implausible. Indeed, when one is sick and [...]
the truth of the matter

Many ppl think im handling things fine and with my calibre and hard work, its not hard to get a reasonably good score. They are all wrong.
I am entirely needy and lacking in the face such great pressures. I admit it; at other times, i do try to pretend everything’s okay. Most of the time [...]
all in Anticipation

I think its only normal to start getting nervous just 2 weeks before the exams? As an overthinker, exponential emotions soon rolled through, into the doors of my mind. In a few hours, reality hit and due to too much math (probability=0.8), it all seemed like it was going to be disastrous.
I realised that when [...]

No, it’s not being confused about your identity. it’s about judging. Since she’s the new american idol judge… i thought this would be a perfectly crystallised thought for this whole post. heh.
This idea of judging, i feel, has been and is bugging me much; ive gotta think this through…
Disclaimer: i am not ranting about anyone; [...]
…and your thoughts and fears will be confirmed

It was so fun today; was unusually and uncharacteristically high during the evening, as well as thereafter. On a side note, all the evenings in school in the past are dearly missed; never again? =( Anyways enough of reminiscing. Was just thinking about preconceived notions and self-fulfilling prophecies.
And the more i think about it, the [...]
Why?…Why not?

Wondering why there are few people who see love as something with no strings attached. In treating others well, in giving of one’s best, in showing concern, in making the world around slightly better than one found it?
Many recent events brought me to question this. In lamenting this, im not saying that i embody one [...]
ioc post-mortem
Posted in Food-For-Thought on August 8, 2009 | 1 Comment »
The context of this passage is that the author has finished his ioc and that the surreal feeling hasnt passed. This makes him want to clear his thoughts and emotions and get on with life. This is very closely linked to the theme of the meaning of life. My analysis will on the motif of [...]
God’s will and predestination.

This question has been bugging me a while and i could not really find much of an answer to it; now that i have more or less come to some understanding, i cant let it pass!
It all started with someone asking me, “if God has a plan for us, does that mean our lives are [...]
