Well it's been a tiring week. Classes starting at 8 am on almost all days except Friday, which startsat 9am. Rugby training which promises to be tougher than usual with a new coach around. It's been a while since I got tired from a SP rugby training session. Next week, I'll be adding my Chinese Language Course into the mix and that means I'll be going home at 7.30 pm on Tuesdays. No wonder I slept at 6pm on Friday and only woke up yesterday at 5am. The worst part is this will continue throughout this semester and will be more intense as tests and projects will be added later in the semester. Just bring it lah...
Lazing In Starbucks ( That's what I call the cafe at school)Yesterday was spent celebrating Ezdi's birthday. Started off at Ramen Ten where I didn't like what I ordered so I started looking at the other customers' orders and see what they order so that I could order that next time. I would also ignore the "Must Try" label that they put at certain dishes cause the one I ordered had such a label and it's a dish I think you shouldn't try. In fact, Pul was the one who finished it. We ended the night at TCC where we had crappy conversations and listened to Pul's weird fantasies. It's been a while since I laughed like that. In fact we are very happy people yesterday. Happy people happy people happy people happy people...

But ask yourself this: Have you ever lost someone you love and wanted one more conversation, one more chance to make up for the time when you thought they would be here forever? If so, then you know you can go your whole life collecting days, and none will outweigh the one you wish you had back.
What if you got it back?
-for one more day by mitch albom-
I've been reading "For one more day" by Mitch Albom and basically the book's about this person called Charley Benetto who decided to kill himself and went back to his old house and met his mother, who died eight years earlier, who welcomes Charley home and what follows is a day which many of us yearns for, a chance to make good with someone we lost, explain our behavior and to seek forgiveness. A good book borrowed from my school library. I had to wait for two months before finally receiving an email that states the book is available for me to borrow. It's worth the wait and I'm trying to find time finish the book despite the pile of borrowed DVDs and books that still waiting to be watched and read.
I also borrowed "Gubra", a movie by Yasmin Ahmad. I think it's the seventh time I've seen this movie and I will never get tired of it. It's hard to say what's good about the movie. Basically for me, it's beyond words. There are so many messages and you will find that every person who watch this movie has their own opinion what the movie is about. I can't wait for "Mukhsin", the latest movie by Yasmin Ahmad, to be screened in Singapore.
I've been saving up to buy this pair of boots. The new Adidas Flanker III. I'm hoping to buy the silver pair though the black pair looks just as good. However it'll have to wait till next month because of someone's birthday this month.
Well it's been a week filled with novels like "The Lost Army Of Cambyses" and "The Altman Code" and DVDs like "Cinta" and "Gridiron Gang". Not forgetting the lepak sessions at Wheelock's Starbucks and Lido's McCafe. School's starting next week and the beginning of a new school year. 2007 is our year guys. Don't forget about it.

Every death in this world is a reminder of how fragile life is. No one has ever escaped death and the worst part is we do not know what happens after death other than what our religion tells us. We do not know when it'll happen so we rarely manage to say our last words to those who left us and to those who we leave behind. Death is scary to those who are not prepared for it.
I'm easily affected by news of deaths around me. Anytime it'll be my turn and I wonder if I'm prepared for it. Seriously, I hope my parents died before it's my turn. I don't want to die with the knowledge that I didn't take care of them till death do us part.
i wonder if i'm the one for you...
