I got to visit the MOT today, as one of the representatives for my division in the National Day observance. We were made to wear the HangTen red t-shirt that has "Singapore" splashed on the front.

It has been a while since I sang the national anthem Majulah Singapura! And yes, say the Singapore pledge as well. I feel like a primary school student ( Read more... )

Goodbye. I never got to say that to you.

曾經太過年輕
作詞：方文山     作曲：黃韻玲

窗外風鈴 一直 不安靜
風在搖晃 不安 的宿命
我聆聽 你回憶經過 的聲音

開始旅行 寂寞 很清醒
我在靠近 過去 的邊境
有些 戀人只是 路過時的風景

曾經太過年輕 卻絕對真心
我給的愛始終任性
不懂花開只一次的愛情

曾經太過年輕 淚 純真透明
你的堅定 我仍然還相信

直到如今 你說愛我那封信
我一直都收藏著 折疊用心 讓誓言乾淨

曾經太過年輕 在人海飄零
那些關於我的事情
總有你緊緊跟隨的身影

曾經太過年輕 淚 純真透明
你的堅定 我仍然還相信

Today is a SLEEPING DAY! Like a pig, I woke up at 1.30pm and slept again at 3pm. Finally woke up again at 6pm to the sounds of mom cooking in the kitchen.

Anyway... it has been a really good ( Read more... )

And I was thinking of switching service provider to Starhub end of the year. Hmmm...

I was a bit distracted during worship in church today by somebody's bad breath.

At first, I was wondering could it be me? So I kept my mouth shut but the odour kept coming from somewhere in waves. I guessed it was the girl standing on my right side. Whenever she sang, the smell came... I tried to dodge the smell by leaning backwards and forwards ( Read more... )
