Time to do fun stuffs with good friends

万歳!BANZAI! ものすごくうれしい!(Very very happy!)

Holidays started yesterday!!! End of year 1. Kinda sad, all the good and fantastic lecturers, not sure if i am gonna see them again. I pray that next year, my classmates will still be the same yo.

I am not planning to work, for some reasons. Gonna focus on my new year's resolution. God, guitar and gym. 3G. Reading, picking and bulking.

I have aligned my purposes for gym and guitar, they being to serve God. Gaining muscle not to impress girls or for boasting rights but for His kingdom. As a fellow friend said, Moses built the ark by himself, he must be strong even at an advanced age. Still remembering the time, we had to move 2 huge wooden boards for Team Invent on foot for a long distance while it was raining. Haha, the pilgrimage to the holy ground.

For guitar, my main focus would be to serve Him in music. Yep, though i will still play Japanese rock music. For some reason, i am no longer "satisfied" just listening to good Christian and Japanese music, i wanna be playing it. Practice.

Just made a decision recently. Some other time perhaps.



Though she left a month ago, when i am walking on the streets and chance upon someone resembling her, my attention would be diverted, shutdown of spatial awareness so to speak.
"sigh....".

Saw Aaron and his girlfriend today while at a pit stop during cycling. As we were heading home, the conversation with JI went as such, Arr hem (clears throat)

me: hey, how nice eh, to be like that.
JI: huh, what thing.
me: Aaron and his girlfriend lah. ( man, i tell ya, i gotta stop speaking Singlish)
JI: aiyah, dun worry, soon brother, have faith, come on, high five!
me: eh, didnt u say after NS?
JI: nevermind, have faith in it, come on, hurry, light turning green, slap it!!! (high five)
me: OKAY! (slaps hand) HAVE FAITH!!!

Funny yo!!

Random thought of the day: " God, i want to have a Christian Japanese band that is united in you.".

Someone wise tells me

Friendship isn't about who you have known the longest.
...but about who came and never left your side.

P.S. Quality not quantity, it seems.

Back to the past, Brothers for life

Finally back to posting, exams are progressing fine, seriously gotta thank God. Especially for my Engineering Maths. Last 3 weeks was... how do i put it... normal and slackful? Haha. As usual, prepared for my exams on the last 2 days. Really a relentless habit that leeched onto me since Primary 4.

The root of this can be coined into a phrase. My unwanted desire for perfection has fueled an endangering procrastination. STILL i am gonna get out of this, despite many, many failed attempts. Gotta make my time fruitful, for many reasons.

One thing i need to get off my chest.

When best friends begin to get on each others' nerves more often than not, we should stop and think if "best friends" is what really describes us. Friends that have known each other for so long that familiarity sets it, and we begin to take each other for granted. Calling another names, on the basis that "Hey, come on, we are good friends, known each other for so long already..". Aint that an irony out from literature books. Worst still, saying "sorry" is as often as saying "Yo, whassup".

Friend whom i treasure much. Please stop amidst your busy schedule and do, please do think how many times i have heard the much hated "sorry" from you. "Sorry" just do not seem to have any meaning any longer. May not be many, but it has definitely put a strain on our friendship. Words like "stupid", "dumb dumb", though you meant it to be funny, why do i not feel so? Rather i feel insulted, to an extent of just shouting out at you.

I am not perfect either, i have done things to make you angry. I seek to be better, this friendship is something i pray to have 70, 80 years down the long, rough road. Sometimes, i just want to stop correcting you, and let you figure it out, let someone else do the correcting. It's just too much. Maybe we known each other for too long, words that i say might not have much of an impact?

It's is hard to change, that i know. Had my fair share of condemnation from "less than understanding" classmates.

Just want you to know, let us not have familiarity set into our friendship.

It would be nice, very nice to be back where we were last time. Times when we had fun, heart-to-heart talks without bursting our nerves, my half-brother.

"Friendship is a gold treasured above life's treasures"

How true.
