i had it
cute
[info]obirick
it has been a rough week for me, battling both school work and my emotions. i dunno what has gotten into me this past 2 days. i guess i was already at my threshold being too forgiving when people have unknowingly upset me. i've been thinking real hard, is it really my fault why are they treating me this way, or is it just out of pure mischievous? i really wonder sometimes. but after speaking to my friend while we were on our way back from K.K hospital, i realised that i have been giving in too much. there has to be a limit in some point in time where i can be treated seriously.

from being called names to being taken for granted. could all these have been avoided if i had shown how i really felt in the first place? i guess the fault lies in me for being such a coward to show my inner emotions to others. i guess my emotional intelligence is just way at the bottom.

huis had a long conversation with housemate about my unhappiness with him taking me for granted. though there wasn't a major event that sparked off my displeasure with him, but it was a collective of snowballed events that made me wonder, am i expecting too much from my friends? probably yes and no? but this has led me to open my eyes to those i should really cherish. those that have taken my friendship seriously and would give me a glimpse of encouragement when i needed one. those who could sense that something was wrong with me while i kept quiet and acted as if nothing had happened. i truly thank life or even God for giving me this opportunity to meet these peeps.

as for now, i have decided to let go of any expectations that i have and just fulfill my duty as a friend. i'll not go to the extra mile anymore because from the lessons that i have learnt these past 6 years, these efforts will lead you to no where eventually. why not take the time to live my life rather than others.

yesterday, i finally found back who i was. it felt good to stand up to myself. though they had apologised to me, the damage had already been done. i can't be mad with them for a long time since the fault does not lie entirely on them since i was involved as well. if i had put on a fight before, if i showed them that i had humility, then things might have been for the better.

i just deserve a form of respect like anyone else does.

a supermassive blog update
cute
[info]obirick
hey to those who have been a keen follower of my blog, now is a super long update of what i have doing for the past 2 months every since i left noose land.

below is my timeline of activities that are lined up for me in the exciting months ahead to come (yeah right...)

been busy with school work and recently cleared all my projects and presentations that are graded. currently in the midst for the preparation of the exams. my first paper will be like next week and i hate the system in NTU where all lessons ends just the week before exams.

next week: exams 1st paper on Understanding China Today
next next week: more exams 2nd paper on Eco-Architecture
next next next week: last paper on Strategic HR functions
next next next next week: interhall games >>> woohoo! this year i'll be taking part in vball, carrom, squash and softball i hope! felt quite guilty for not going for all the training except for vball. seems that vball is still my only thing that i can do so far.

next year: going to paris with some of my hall mates! current team that is going: bobo, muns, me, huimin and probably will meet neek over there once he finish his exchange in sweden.

to fei and fel! i seriously miss u guys! can we like meet up one day real soon! there is so much things to catch up with u all!

happiness

woot~ i just completed downloading man vs wild for all 5 seasons, i'll be catching every episode of bear grylls as he hikes through deserts, mountains, rainforest etc and eating any stuff that he could possibly find and that will definitely include unappetising stuff. time to laze around and entertain myself with bear!

this week will be my last week in OSA and yipee hurray that i'll be leaving noose land because things here aren't the same as before. but i'll definitely miss some of my colleagues here and probably this will be the last time that i'll come back again.

but i am still darn happy because from now till school reopen, all the time will be for me, although i'll be stuck at home listening to my mum's nagging.

3 weeks from now will be luc's 1st month on planet earth and hopefully i'll be able to plan and make it to the party on time after my dad unleashed his what-can-be-more-important-than-your-nephew-first-month-celebration face at me hinting me to drop all activities that day. part of me wanted to do that but another part of me feels otherwise. the main reason for not wanting to attend the party is not because that i am some enthusiastic kid that enjoys the fun in senior camp, in fact i don't, but it is more that i do not really wanna entertain my relatives. you know after a while, it gets really bothersome that your relatives kinda forget how old are you and you have to repeat yourself not only at this time but later on during chinese new year. i may sound like some anti social ungrateful brat who doesn't want to be any closer to my relatives, but hey, if that is how i am. i don't wanna be that little boy that smiles and laughs at every little comment they make while trying to strike a conversation with me.

working towards a goal to live how i want my life to be!

i was watching some youtube to kill some time yesterday, and i came upon this youtube video that really laugh till i almost fell off the bed.

it was a parody of the single ladies video by beyonce, and justin timberlake and the rest of the saturday night live crew were goofing around with her.

this is the original version


beyonce is really gorgeous

he is out of the closet!
cute
[info]obirick

as all my friends know that i am a american idol junkie, so i am really KPO whatever that is related to idol. and the latest update of post american idol is that adam lambert is OUT of the CLOSET!.

in his latest cover shoot for the rolling stones, adam lambert took this chance and announced that he is officially gay~




actually we all kinda expected this so that isn't much to be surprised about, considering that his raunchy photos with another guy has been spreading across the internet like wildfire, hot enough to burn down all the trees in america.

but the one of the comments that he made was kinda akward.

he actually said this

"Oh, sh--, they put me with the cute guy. Distracting! He's the one guy I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type — except that he has a wife. I mean, he's open-minded and liberal, but he's definitely 100 percent straight." - The Rolling Stones

I was like "wow, this guy is really brave to say that he had a crush on Kris."

For those who do not know who is Kris, he is the current WINNER of american idol 2009! woot~ sorry i am a kris allen fan too!

here is a photo of him



he is just the typical guy-next-door, that every girl will melt when he smiles at you.

Erm... it seems that they are really good friends, but i kinda figure that Kris might not actually know that Adam had a crush on him. But I guess it was pretty obvious that Adam might have felt this way because of all the peeps in the group, Kris is definitely one the better looking guys out there, and somemore he is married - it is like some forbidden fruit that you can ever eat making him more hard to get.

But oh well, Kris is married with his beautiful wife, and Adam is attached to his interior designer boyfriend, Drake LaBry as well.



awww.... so sweet


too hot to handle?

Kris seems to be ok with Adam's sexuality and supports him all the way. He is really cool man~

You can check out Kris's views

Seriously, Adam Lambert has my utmost respect for being so brave.

the monday blues
cute
[info]obirick

what could the worst thing that happen to you on a bright monday morning besides dragging yourself out of bed to make it in time for work?

you notice someone who wears the same working shirt as you do while taking public transport.

and to top things up, both you are forced to stand next to each other, face to face in a squeezy MRT train, so both of you cannot act cool and act like nothing happen.

and i was that unlucky dude who was trapped in such a situation today...
