What a tiring day! First it was football with a group of ex-schoolmates against some other guys at Serangoon Stadium in the morning. We didn't do well, but we'll just leave it at that!Then, another group of ex-schoolmates called me to join them to play more football at NYJC. Football time is pretty precious nowadays, because I don't really have a set group of people I regularly play with, so I agreed and rushed home, and then came out soon after.
I met them at Zhonghua, because the school were having some open house thing and they went back to visit some old teachers. It was nice seeing some old teachers, but not very nice when those friends of mine started saying that I went for liposuction. ): I could always take it as a compliment you know...
We went to the canteen briefly, and as I looked at the basketball court, I saw that familiar jersey, and that familiar number. But I doubt that person in that jersey was her unless she er, gained much weight.
And then I realise that I cannot deny, that sometimes, I still do miss you.
BUT NO ONE GIVES A FLYING FUCK! HAHA!

For each word you get right, we donate 10 grains of rice to a hungry person through an international aid agency.

Click it! This is the easiest way to be nice or just to reverse the bad karma you've been building up all these while. And you get to expand your vocabulary too.
And I saw the Nike Tribes video on street football. The freestyle part is really not impressive at all. If people from other countries look at the video, I think they'd laugh at us. No originality at all, and the tricks are all done individually, and really not well at all. If you look at the last trick, it's just wrong! For a company of Nike's budget, they should have had a few more takes before it's really glamourous. Not saying I can do it glamourously all the time, but if I were to do that move to be of that standard, I won't be happy with it.
Just my two cents. And FYP selection's next Friday! Gives me a few more days next week to settle everything.

It's finally done.Other than being multi-platform, Java is such a piece of sh*t programming language for me. Randomly gives me so many problems and compatability issues that wasted so much of my time, and made me murderous.
I thought making the GUI for the program wouldn't take too long. I was wrong. Coding the GUI gave a ten-fold increase in the overall program size, which was hours of work for me, almost having to re-learn everything from the previous term.
Now I face the biggest problem of all; deploying my project into the school, where I have no control over the network settings and everything.
We'll see how things go. This project better be selected for Spinnovex, considering how much I've rushed to try complete this piece of crap.
Time for some whiskey to release the tension, and a long sleep.

Got my PDA to use for my Final Year Project yesterday, because my dad was really nice. A huge burden off my chest when I saw that the program more or less worked on the PDA.I just have a small problem to overcome before it's done. It could be major, but I hope it's small. :\

Sometimes I wish that I was like Margaret Thatcher, the old British Prime Minister who boasted that she only needed 5 hours of sleep to function normally.When I was young, I always wondered why my parents complained about imsomnia, because sleeping was so easy.
How wrong I was. The night just seems to stretch and pass so slowly, and when you finally fall asleep, it's almost time to wake up.
Hard alcohol doesn't help. ):
Maybe some nights I really need to hug someone to fall asleep lah. Not possible in the near future I reckon. ):
Stupid, stupid insomnia. It's making lives so inefficient.

A video probably made by PETA.But I still can't stop eating meat! They're just too delicious, or maybe I'm just a very primal person. But I guess the next best thing I can do is to scare others into not eating meat!
These few days have been pretty monotonous. Between waiting for my PDA to finally be ordered by the school, and stressing out over the FYP submission two weeks later, there's nothing much interesting.
I loved today's football session though. Could feel my confidence rising back while I was juggling past people and taking on people again. Still not as confident as I want to be, but that's a start I guess.
And oh, Irish Cream is just so nice and sweet and creamy and smooth, and good for numbing some of my troubles and pains (orthodontics, ouch) away. Why do they tax it here.. ):

You know, over the years I've listened to so many love songs, and thinking that for every situation there's a song, I think I may be able to post a post with the bulk of it being song titles and lyrics.They say, music can name the unnameable, and communicate the unknowable.
This post may not make much sense, but well, I'm truly bored at the moment waiting for Manchester United's match to start. So here goes.
At the start of a relationship...
My life is brilliant, my love is pure, I saw an angel, of that I'm sure. I need to tell you, how you light up every second of the day, but in the moonlight, you just shine like a beacon on the bay.
Tell me, we belong together, dress it up with the trappings of love, I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips, instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above. I wanna make you smile, whenever you're sad, carry you around when your arthritis is bad, all I wanna do is grow old with you.
I'll give up forever to touch you, cause I know that you feel me somehow, you're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be, and I don't want to go home right now. No, I can't forget tomorrow, when I think of all my sorrows, when I had you there but then I let you go. So tell me now, and I won't ask again, will you still love me tomorrow?
I guess that is the song we all want to sing at the start, when everything appears more rosy and happy. When things take a turn for the worse..
I do, cherish you, for the rest of my life, you don't have to think twice, I will love you still, from the depths of my soul, it's beyond my control, I've waited so long to say this to you, if you're asking do I love you this much, I do.
How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace, when I stand here taking every breath with you. If you leave me now, you'll take away the greatest part of me. Don't leave me in all these pain, don't leave me out in the rain, come back and bring back my smile, come and take these tears away, I need your arms to hold me now, the nights are so unkind, bring back those nights when I held you beside me.
I go out every night and sleep all day, since you took your love away. Once upon a time I was falling in love, now I'm only falling apart.
Don't tell me it's not worth trying for, you can't tell me it's not worth dying for, you know it's true, everything I do, I do it for you. Can we go back to the days, our love was strong, can you tell me how, a perfect love goes wrong? Can somebody tell me, how to get things back the way they used to be, God, give me the reason, I'm down on bended knee.
Although we've come to the end of the road, still I can't let you go. It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you.
A million love songs later, and here I am trying to tell you that I care.
A million love songs later, and here I am.
=\ They don't sound the best mixed together, but whatever. So yeah, I still feel that for every situation in our lives, there will be a song for it. (:
