It's totally beautiful to talk about our childhood. Last night, I was with my cousins and we started chit-chatting about some of the mysterious things of this world, some supernatural things one can experience. My uncle shared that when he was a student, he is able to dream of exams questions. He also had this talent of remembering the paragraph and pages when someone ask him on some books that he read. That's kinda cool actually and can you image, we are actually using 3% of our brain. That was proven by some scientist.
Immediately after that, our childhood memories started to strike us and we was laughing and complaining about some of the stuff we did during our childhood. haa. That's so nice. We talk about some of the stupid games that we played and actually those games are created by us. My uncle was telling us about the generation change. How their generation use to come out with their own games compared to nowaday's kids. yup, i agree. Comparing my generation and the younger ones these days, we played different stuff. My sec two cousin told us that half of their memories that is with my generation, are the memorable ones. Mine is equally memorable too.
Spending almost all my life, my childhood with these bunch of great cousins, is definitely the greatest blessings. I really treasure this relationship with them and definitely I hope that when we grew up, we still can be stay in close contacts because I think not all people have such great relationship with their cousins and to have this special relationship for a lifetime.
Sometimes I am totally turned off about the kiasu Singaporeans.
I was going down Orchard during the peak hour, around 6pm. I was standing around the door and when we are approaching the Orchard station, you can feel the squeezing force from behind and people are starting to say "Excuse, excuse" in a rude way. I mean.? For goodness sake, it's Orchard and definitely alot of people is getting down. You just have to wait for the door to get open and i bet majority of them will get down the train. I'm sorry to say this but it's always the Aunties that are the ones that are kiasu.
Same goes to the bus too. Times when you are sitting at the outer seat and the guy sitting next to you wants to go down the bus. The bus-stop happens to be the one that you too will alight and this guy is rushing the way out to the doorway. As what my friend told me, it's tempting to tell them off saying you are going down too. I mean, sometimes you can see it from the guy's body language that he/she is going down right?
But I guess we just have to be gracious to these people. God loves them and we should too.
Sometimes I just don't give a damn of those people that doesn't appreciate my existence. I agree that it can be rather hurting to see people that you are trying to hang out with, is avoiding you and ignoring you. But I guess, as long as my eyes are on God, nothing will move me. God loves me and definitely my few great buddies. I guess the only day that I'm going to be sad, it will be the day that my buddies and God turn away from me.
I know it won't happen. So, cheers! :D
No doubt that I don't feel the closeness with the Charlians even until the last day of the camp, I still miss them a little. I was trying to take a afternoon nap just now and my mind just flashes the times I had with the Charlians. The singing of songs, tie-ing of hands together to eat, nights after nights of forcing them to sleep. It's quite a fun experience after all. Well, I do learn lots of things through this camp, especially the cheers. It goes to show how limited and knowledgable RC's instructors has for cheers. haa. I'm kinda envy the CIs there. They have so much ideas for songs and cheers and they definitely had lots of fun when they are in camps. It's not that we don't enjoy but rather we miss the kind of bonding that the CIs have compared to us. I admit that sometimes we are too regimental. But still, we have our unique way of conducting ourselves that other UGs don't have.
I like the Shark song! di di di...
NDP 2004
Immediately after 'The Tribute' was shown, PM Goh was standing just in front of me. He was busy waving and shaking his hands up to the VIP Lounge. I was totally touched by the last word of 'The Tribute' that was put up. " My heart is always with you." You can see how this great man love Singapore and the people. I thank God for a minister like him.
This year's NDP is a different experience not to be forgotten. The fireworks was totally amazing! I'm fortunate that I'm able to see the fireworks from the grandstand and such a clear view of the whole finale. Too bad that I didn't capture a shot of it. Nevertheless, I still miss NDP 03. I have to admit that it's the people that makes it fun or dull. After I saw jf's blog, yeap. The candy is there for a year. That's so fast.
I'm off for camp! God bless!
I thank God for His goodness.
I realise that in God's kingdom, we can grow spiritually and I really mean Spiritually. No doubt that I'm able to learn alot of things from there but that is actually depending on my human effort. I just want to lean on God's grace to change me spiritually. Thank you Holy Spirit.
It's gonna be a long weekend and I'm gonna enjoy the whole of next week. :D
