and is this it?

goodness.
is the stress of ib supposed to be setting in?
well i’m feeling it,
or am i?
—

this week has gotten off to a hilarious start at the least.
i really feel for charmaine
and my dear friend cow.
caught in this messy tangle

WHICH I DID NOT CAUSE.

gosh,
it’s really hard for all those around me to believe i didn’t spread the nonsense eh!
but at least dianchun was nice enough to tell me she was one of the culprits..
hahaha.

it’s really nice to see the class bonding together a little more as well,
and daniel’s unstoppable nonsense spouting.
i’m really beginning to like fiveeightkings.
its gonna be a fun 2008

—
and yet there’s always this sense of regret
everytime i look into your shadowy blue eyes
i can never comprehend
what they mean
what they hide
is it really that hard to accept?

viva la revolution!

maybe its just timely.
and maybe its just the remedy to cure this dazed state of mine.

REVOLUTION!

the spartan from spartacus with heart and voice

well.
i think we’re going nuts
we’re missing [as in wanting to go for] band.
ask jennchong
he agrees too (:
—

its been a rather uneventfully eventful week

and the olevelers from my school didn’t do much to help me feel any better but,
most importanly,

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL : D

SPARTACUS!
WITH HEART AND VOICE!
maybe our band is |this| close to finding that magic
and | this | close to finding the numbers [members] to pull that magic
but i’ll still be looking forward to MUSE ‘08

and i need to work on that retarded solo

—
and as the rift widens
and emotions dull
heartbreak and disappointment still reeks deep.
—
wishing for the heart of a spartan
and wishing to be like John Petrucci

superman!

emo-tional

come to think of it,
is emotional the same as
EMO?
—

a little late,
BUT NONETHELESS!

new year’s resolution number 1:
learn or attempt to
Glasgow by John Petrucci

omgosh leet guitar solo.
any guitarist should listen and get awed (:

and really,
big thank you goes to daryl and ted!
you two never fail to be there when i need someone to talk to (:

empty.

looking back,
my recent posts do seem quite emo.
and why is www.explosm.net not funny
—

but really,
if you were me?
wouldn’t you feel the same way?

thanks for transferring Cow out of my class for no rhyme or reason
thanks for the insensitive of words thrown at me
thanks for the heartbreak
thanks for the separation
thanks for a crazy maths teacher

thanks for making me feel so damn empty

then again.
thank God there’s still good people and things around me.

—
please don’t tell me this is a passing phase.
step up.
step into my shoes if you dare.

crossroads

as we arrive at yet another crossroad,
paths diverge,
and will they ever converge again?
the future knows no bounds,
a step of faith.

really gonna miss OG14.
at least charlotte, rachel, claire, and good friends are all nearby.

—
and when does the line get too thin?
dangerous tightrope walk.

bridging.

hmm. my banner is kinda getting out of date.
honestly, 2 weeks out.

—

well, its been just bridging courses for the past week.
but i prefer to refer to them more affectionately as “socializing sessions”.
but seriously,
its a damn big waste of time.
if not for paper games and note passing,
i’d have died of acute boredom already.

many interesting things also “unfolded” during these 3 days.
isaac can testify to that!
but thats partly cause he’s my partner in crime.
perpetually keeping us in stitches during the lectures.

and due to the nature of sensitivity of the issues mentioned above,
it will not be mentioned.
but the temptation to blog it out is too damn great. ><

but definitely, the company of the OG has been great.
special mention goes to charlotte.
lawl that girl is one funny girl.
but needs to control that chatterbox of hers.

but everyone has played a special part in this orientation acs-perience
ruth! amanda! rachel! claire! sharry! CHARLOTTE!
ezra! john! isaac! rene! chengqing! sunhao! minh! justin! adwyn! wesley! jufri! garry! ben!

OG Fourteen!
really gonna miss them.
dont wanna split up.

at least great memories of orientation and our friendships,
and the scandals,
which i inadvertently spread with isaac,

gonna miss these people loads.
couldn’t have asked for more of an OG, and as friends.
special friends.

acs-ploration

well if you haven’t guessed, thats the theme of this year’s year 5 orientation.
i must say,
it’s been a real good 3 days of acs-ploration for me.
self discovery.

DAY 1
honestly, stepping into school on the first day, was not exactly very appealing to me.
knowing i’m gonna get split up with my friends from 4.16,
i wasn’t exactly taking it very well.
moreover, i discovered BANG was in my OG.
of all people,
really,
why bang?

okay maybe i was too judgmental already,
but OG 14 straight ahead!

and as the day went on,
we stuck together
warmed up to the group
attentend briefings

and MASS DANCE loomed okay i can’t dance,
so i won’t elaborate (:

but the really dumb part,
I MISSED ICEBREAKERS CAUSE OF BAND
omg.
i went back having to figure everyone’s name
and no thanks to the two lookalikes ruth and charlotte,
my crash course in name acrobatics would have been just SLIGHTLY easier.
but nonetheless! i managed to do it!
and so i thought until day 2.

as i stepped out of school, i kinda realised that firstly,
i cant remember the dreaded dance steps, secondly,
i haven’t talked to any new people seriously, and lastly,
this situation of mine is all band’s fault.

agitation and mental rants set in.

-wow its 12am, SATURDAY!

after missing 3 buses waiting to go home.
i told myself.
treasure this orientation.
once in a lifetime experience.
WAKE UP BEVAN!
