The feeling of overcoming one of the toughest hurdles as deeemed by you is splendid. Just had my PC2131 paper today. Lunch with my Physics buddies was great and what I needed. Especially with Gwen around. Haven't laughed so hard in a long long while. Wednesday is approaching ever so fast. Then its overseas trips and clubbing all the way... :)
Studying with Jelvin in a library now and will be mugging with Amelia later. Yes, I know its a Saturday. To play hard, you need to work hard. Nothing comes free. But when in the correct company, even hard work is fun and worth savouring.

I never knew I had so many pics with young kids.... So gay... :(
Mind me for being weird, but I'm really looking forward to all my exams. The rush of adrenaline and funny feeling that you get in your gut when you know you are going to exert wits against your greatest adversary, your own, internal limiting factor, yourself and your mental prowess.
This morning I was just having a conversation with Jelvin regarding the Singapore education system. The sense of competiveness throughout a student's life eventually eliminates his or her interest in the particular subject. But having said that, the individual shouldn't be moved by grades or exams because they are still studying their interest with a tinge of stress sprinkled upon the main course. However, the fixed syllabus that is required for assessment of a student's understanding inevitably brings about little room for exploration. Still a very controversial issue.
I could sense myself getting impatient as I was talking to Jelvin. So unlike me. Must be the exam nerves.
Did I ever tell anyone how much I love Mariah Carey. Such a pure yet powerful voice. I'm really looking forward to the Kbox session with my physics buddies after my last paper. Interesting how I'm getting close to them only at a point where by life lies at the crossroads of two faculties. So much uncertainty... Faculty, results, SEP... Don't get me wrong.. I love uncertainty.
After my last paper last semester, I made a move which I still regret sometimes, but only sometimes... :) I should start studying now. Electromagnetism paper tomorrow. May the force be with me....!!!

Had my first exam today. Whether it went well or bad is secondary. The accomplised feeling at the end of a module overwrites everything. To be at bliss with the fact that you have acquired so much more new knowledge... :)
Mugged at the library with WanTing today, or what she termed as a 'Steal Loke's knowledge' session. Don't worry, I've plenty to share... :)
Studying with Jelvin and Patrick in the library has been a blast. I spent most of my time last semester in the library till I became phobic of it.

I always have a special theme song during all my exams that just keeps playing on my computer whilst I'm studying. Last semester, it was Bleeding Love by X-Factor winner Leona Lewis. I personally feel, that her performance of bleeding love was the best ever on American Idol where she appeared as the guest performer. Especially towards the end where all her powerful yet lovingly vulnerable notes enchant the audience as they are visually dazzled by the display of fire-sprouts in her background.
My first exam at 5pm today. Finally. Get Ready! Game On!

I think Jelvin is damn pro. He knows who all my close friends are just via description eliminating the need for me to talk to him about them in third person context when I tell him about them.
I ended up studying in the library togather with Jelvin today and was later joined by Ashwin. The session was very productive contrary to what I thought would be a futile attempt to study in the santuary of silence and boredom that is the library.

The fact that I was wide awake the entire night and am still wide awake is seemingly disturbing. I guess its a blessing in disguise knowing that I'm so alert without any sleep. Hence there's more time to do things. Yet at the same time there's this anxiety that I might just drop dead at any moment due to the total lack of sleep. Who'd really care anyway.

**I've decided that I'm going to stick to my 2 decisions**
I have never been complacent or arrogant my entire life due to my humble background. Always the gentleman. Yet today it feels very disturbing, an anomility in your life, when people who have never worked with you before, who barely know you for what you stand, place judgement upon you through unguided and rash assumptions.
The truth is I don't really care anymore. My service has always been to the nation. Such petty and meaningless arguements just get in the way. They just tend to make you soft. Don't get me wrong. I'm not rigid and inflexible. I have total composure and understanding of what is happening and how the whole world feels. What happenned was due to a series of wrong moves that I made leading to irritating consequences and emotional flips.
Never, ever compare my work to my behaviour in school. People change with surroundings and the nice guy you see everyday can be a soldier when he has too. Never doubt that.

*** I have made two important decisions today***
Sometimes, you see a special friend in some people. Naively, you think that the other enjoys your company as much as you enjoy theirs. Hoping things will be just like kindergarten where no one thinks deep enough to create complications. Sadly, that is not always the case. People are always more complicated than they appear to be and what you deem as a gesture of friendship may end up sending the wrong vibes.
Guess everything said, all relationships are built on the basis of trust and understanding. The 'feeling' must be present. If the 'feeling' is gone then why torture yourself in investing in the relationship any longer. A shallow school of thought some might say. But I think it eliminates room for uncertainty and misunderstanding.
People should really learn to cherish people around them, because some gone might choose to never come back even though they know they are being foolish and stubborn by making such a rash decision.

...Lo aNd BeHoLd...
Today was not a very productive day in terms of studying and everything was on a lull. Little did I know or foresee that midnight would bring upon me a new challenge.
At about 12 midnight I went over to Ashwin's room. According to plan, we were supposed to run 27km. So we stretched, warmed up and set off at about 0045. I knew my body was on low endurance as I had recently run 20-km, took IPPT, recovered from a fever and had swollen feet. Nevertheless, I decided to push myself.
Half an hour into the run, my swollen feet and shin started to give way, so I couldn't keep up with Ash. I told him, go on, we'll meet again later. I struggled with the pain all the way to the 10-km mark. Then a miracle happened. As if by magic, the pain in the shin totally vanished for the first time in my life. Mind over matter.
I pushed on harder than ever before to catch up with Ashwin who was nowhere in sight. So I continued running to Newton Food Centre. He wasn't there. I continued running to KK hospital. He wasn't there either. I continued to Little India mrt station. He wasn't there as well. I figured he would be smart enough to come back by himself so I headed back.
Ash ran more than the planned 27km and I suspect I might have just almost completed my first full marathon. A special thanks to Ash and Hongyi who were on the verge of searching for me. But I turned up in time.... :)
Whilst I was bathing, Ash rushed to Macs to buy a meal for the both of us. I was very very pleasently surprised and touched. The double burger was very filling. Then I stole Ashwin's milk and Ribena. Thanks alot, Twin....!! :) A great way to end a running fiasco.

JieRen was trying to flirt with the lady at Crystal Jade so I sensored the pic... :)Yesterday, I went to Queensway with Ash. Tried some famous Claypot Laksa there which I though was quite sumptuous apart from the fact that it made my stomach and mouth go ablaze.
In the evening, got the chance to try some great tasting ice-cream.
After having my breakfast with Jelvin and Patrick this morning, I headed to the ICA buiding to collect my new biometric passport and VISA application. It was drizzling and I got totally drenched. Now, I keep sneezing.
Went for dinner with Jieren in the evening. Crystal Jade at Harbourfront. This Crystal Jade looked more 'atas' than any of the others I've been to before. The view was quite good too. JieRen got the good seat... :)

Last night, I was watching a show called 'Life With Derek'.
Tracy: Dad, people think I'm worked up because I always try too hard.
Dad: Tracy, you'll accomplish great things because you dare to go the extra mile.
Some food for thought. Always believe in yourself and your abilities.

I really believe that the SAF deserves thorough credit in its ability to diminish boundaries between men from all walks of lives, races and even age groups, all serving as one united entity, the driving force. This morning, I was just having a Physics Discussion cum casual chat with my Physics lecturer, Dr Yeo.
Of course we started talking about Physics and then we went into discussion about school life. Eventually, we stumbled upon the topic of our days serving the nation. The tone of the conversation totally changed from that of mentor and student to that of friends, of course with all due respect on my part. We talked about careers and why I choose to carry on with the Proffession of Arms. A morning seriously well spent.
Somehow, somewhere, I forgot that my main duty has always been towards the nation. I guess with University life it is easy to be carried away by the influence of friends. HOWEVER, when its time to have fun and go wild, soldiers can do that. But they should never ever forget their underlying duties and reason for choosing a career with the force.

Exams are coming! Exams are coming! Anyways, met up with Huimin on Sunday afternoon and tried out the Jazz rendition of O Holy Night. Its seriously good stuff. Can't wait till Christmas.
In the evening, came back to hall and met up with Patrick for some term paper discussion. Went over to Kevin's place in the night for some mugging. After finishing my online assignment, Kevin suggested heading to Holland Village for supper and more intensive mugging. So we did. As luck would have it, on the way back the entire network of ATMs in Singapore was under system maintenace from 3am to 5am, and we had just enough cash to pay for the meal.
So the dilemma now was, How do we get back to NUS at 3am in the morning with no cash. Eventually, I activated Stuck who was more than willing to help pay for our cab first. Thanks Bro....!!!
Today, Patrick and Jelvin knocked my room and called my HP respectively to ask me out for breakfast but I couldn't wake up and the swell on my foot hurt like crap. Was very touched when Patrick bought lunch back for me.... Thanks man..!!
So now I am in LT3, mugging with fellow twin Ashwin. Its freezing cold here. Seriously, but condusive all the same.

After completing a 20km run with Ashwin, I slept over at his place. I was very touched when I went to the washroom just for awhile and came back to find my bed nicely laid out for me. He even gave me his checkered blanket. The best part, he bought me Toblerone Chocolate some time ago and presented it to me last night. Heavenly stuff after a long run. Thanks man!
In the morning, Jelvin made my day by messaging me," Loke, I'll be going to Church tonight, so I won't be in hall. Remember to take all your meals on time....." Its always the thought that counts. 100 gestures that involve material stuff pale in comparison to a single phrase that can make someone happy.
Upon reaching my room, Yuting nudged me on msn and created some retarded conversation with me early in the morning. Of course we discussed Japanese as well. Just what I needed to start my day.... :) In the afternoon, I went for lunch cum Japanese oral discussion with Yu Ting followed by lunch again with Ashwin.

To end the day off, I went to Long Beach Restaurant at East Coast Park to celebrate Qihao's birthday. He messaged me two weeks ago and physically called me last night again. How could I miss such an important person's birthday man... Happy Birthday dude...!! Anyway, just for his sake, I had my virgin experience of crab meat... Argh!!

When someone dares to 'spit-swear' with you, you know that fate and destiny has fostered and forged a bond between you and the other that will last through each and every thick and thin of life. Both buddies cannot ask for more.
Today was a hectic but fruitful and enjoyable day. I had my breakfast with Jelvin and set off for my last Japanese tutorial A of the semester. The tutorial class with 12 ladies and only two guys. After having my final Japanese quiz and bidding farewell to my Jap 1 friends, I rushed to Science to deliver my experimental physics presentation. Was very touched when Shida shook my hand and said, "Loke, I wish you all the best regardless of whether you stay in Physics or move to Political Science." Those hours of lab, lectures and tutorials fostered a sub-conscious bond amidst me and my fellow Physicians that I'm going to miss when I change my faculty.
I was very happy with delivery of the presentation and the 3 lecturers' comments. It paid to spend 8 straight hours right till 4am in the morning coming up with elaborate slides that exhausted many of the possible questions that the lecturers could ask.
After the presentation, I went to meet up with a friend at Compasspoint and visited my parents for a short while. On my way back, Kevin rang me up and we decided to head to the Japanese supermarket at Clarke Quay to shop for groceries. In the end we didn't buy anything much but it was the great company that counted.
After the detour to Clarke Quay, I came back to TH with Kevin. Then we met Qian Wen. Of course, seeing Qian Wen activated my retarded mode and soon enough all three of us were having retarded fun. Then, I went to visit JieRen and spent some time over at his room.
The grand finale was Ashwin's room. My objective of going to TH. We are going to record a song tomorrow, hence we needed to practice. The practice session was great fun and soon enough we started doing retarded things like putting on cool caps and making retarded music videos that you can tune into in Facebook.
Thus ended an ideal day.... Sometimes life brings us upon crossroads. The determining move should bring about joy that will last and not serve as a mere enigma or apparition for a limited, superficial time.

All, I wanna do is be with you
There's nothing we can't do,
Just wanna be with you
And no matter where life takes us
Nothing can break us apart
You know its true

I love hall life. Its 4am in the morning and I've just come back from a jog around NUH. Bought some food on the way back. I counted the number of steps along Shepard's path as I ran up--87
Track training today was fun as usual though I couldn't perform well. My neck still hurts even after I went to the doctor and he injected it. I can barely turn it beyond a certain angle. Wonder if its my pillow...
Tonight and tomorrow seem to be two consective times where boundaries cannot be drawn between day and night. 1 major presentation tomorrow and the final Japanese test of the semester.

School is coming to an end at such a rapid pace. But even as exam fervour is high, fun is in the air. I've been more goofy in class than I was all semester. How fun is that. Someone thought I was half Chinese for the third time this week. Then I spoke in Malay to confuse the person even further. By the time I said something in Chinese, Japanese and Hindi, the person was drooling with shock, or so I exaggerate... :)
Thanks Yuting, for that hour long dinner. Remember guys can take Japanese 3 and Green Tea desert is not weird.... :) So random....
...ShOoT..! ScOrE..!...
School is coming to an end at such a rapid pace. But even as exam fervour is high, fun is in the air. I've been more goofy in class than I was all semester. How fun is that. Someone thought I was half Chinese for the third time this week. Then I spoke in Malay to confuse the person even further. By the time I said something in Chinese, Japanese and Hindi, the person was drooling with shock, or so I exaggerate... :)

HSM3 4tH TiMe
...Lo aNd BeHoLd...
So many things have happened over the past few days that its hard to describe them all. My presence materialised in the theatre for the 4th time to savour the flavour of the joy that is the melody of High School Musical 3 today. When am I going to find a girl whom I can waltz with on the roof too, under the rain. Sounds cheesey? Not to a hopeless romantic it does.
I've been meeting many of my old friends lately with a sudden influx of new friends. I do not know how it is happening but it is. Had lunch with Wan Ting and Ronald. During Japanese lecture, sat with Pamela instead of Stella and gang for the first time and we both left early. Met up with Mark for tea-break. Went for a all left hander's meal with Jelvin and Gwen. Went for a heavy dinner with Kevin at Holland V and the list just go on.
In the midst of this frenzy, I am more focussed than ever. This is the last chance to get it right. You know that and I know that. So dates can wait, love can be put on hold. What is important now is what we need to own.

...Lo aNd BeHoLd...
I want to start this post by thanking Jelvin for voluntarily waiting for me for dinner when I went to watch High School Musical 3.
Yes, I did. Watched it for the third time at Vivocity all by myself. It was kind off fun being all by myself lost in my own world, my own music, my own thoughts.

My wEeKeNd LiFe
...Lo aNd BeHoLd...
On Saturday afternoon, I went for brunch with Jelvin to NUH. I just found out that there is such a vast array of food over there. To think I spent almost the whole semester walking to Fong Seng to buy food each time I got hungry at wee hours of the night. Well, better late than never.
I have many overseas trips to plan for at the end of this semester. Have to set priorities. Today, Andy just asked me to Vietnam along with Wendy and Jelvin. Sounds fun to me. Its always the company that counts and company where you can be yourself at that.
Spent some time with Kevin this weekend. Went to Queensway for some retail therapy and lunch after. At night we had supper at Holland Village and bought some groceries from cold storage before retiring back to hall. The meal at Crystal Jade at Holland Village was really very good and I found myself enjoying every single bite of the various dishes we ordered. For the record, I had a very bad experience at Crsytal Jade once with Ashwin and I black-listed it for some time. Great food, great comapany.
Today was my race against time as I attempted to please Princess Gwen with a lab report in shining armour, or so I thought so. In the evening, went to do chin-ups with Kevin after which I went for my own personal run. The feeling was amazing. The adrenaline pumping in my blood, HSM3 songs being blasted into my ears and the thrill of running aimlessly in an unexplored part of NUS, not knowing where you might end up, what you might find, whom you'll meet, the curiousity and fascination of a little boy all over again.
Just came back from supper with Jelvin. Supper felt heavenly to me after I spent the whole day just eating nuts like a chipmunk. Missed every single meal of the day.
---------------------------------------------
Take my hand, I'll take the lead
And every turn, Will be safe with me
To be afraid, Afraid to fall
You know I'll catch you, Through it all
And you can't keep Us apart
Cause my heart Is wherever you are,
It's like catching lightning
The chances of finding someone, Like you
It's one in a million, The chances of feeling the way We do
And with every step together, We just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance?
Can I have this dance?
