STRESSED





























This update is LONG overdue.Right Gwen?????haha. Well for starters, let me start with the week before this. Last week, on Friday(Sports Day) I think,Gwen and I went to the Woodlands Regional Library to do some research for our Country.Mind you,for now,we aren't talking about Singapore.If only it was Singapore, life would be so blissful.We are now delegates of South Africa and it has given us so much troublesproblemsheadachesstress that i just feel like dissolving the nation.Im serious.Ok wait, im going out of point here.Well, before we went up to the 2nd level of the Library, we passed a science exhibition.Being the curious KIDS we were, we started playing with all the exhibits. After a while, we ended up at the hexagon puzzle booth.This is where we have to put various shapes of all sizes together in a constricted space to form a hexagon.It was fun.We played for less than 5mins when we decided to walk around.Because we were considerate people and wanted to let the people behind us to give the puzzle a try too. After awhile, we came back to that same booth and saw a young girl ard the age of about 8 trying to solve the puzzle.He mum was helping her. Sweet you might declare.But....wait.There's more.We thought it was sweet too.But that woman was taking her own sweet time even though there were lots of people behind her who wanted to try a hand at the puzzle.If she had mumbled a sorry at least, Gwen and I would have felt contented to know that at least she is sorry for making us wait.But that F***ed up piece of shit did nothing.Not even an appology.Not even acknowledging our presence. After a while,that young girl left for some other booth.The woman continued to try. Try.and.TRY.We were still waiting mind you.With lotsa people behind us as well.After a while, that little girl came back again.She stepped on my foot and did not even have the courtesy to say Sorry.Well, at that point, I was already pissed.To the core.So, mum and daughter kept trying.N0n-stop.Oblivious to the fact that there were other people who were waiting to try as well. In the end,that f***ed up piece of shit and her daughter managed to solve the puzzle.Mind you, don't you come and tell me that they solved the puzzle by being determined and patient. The reason why they managed to solve the puzzle was because they realised that all the various blocks has numbers written on them and these numbers would aid in the solving of the problem if it is ordered sequentially.Even after solving the puzzle, that piece of shit still had the audacity to say loudly "oh, so easy, just place them in order.Even now, while im recalling the incident, my blood is still boiling.So F***ing inconsiderate.No wonder the daughter behaves like a brat too.Like mother,like daughter.BITCH.Overall, we spent 1hour plus waiting and waiting and waiting in an air-conditioned place with our stomachs empty.ARGH. Though we were pissed with that woman, we managed to go up to the 2nd level to search for resources.Found some useful ones.Still pissed.Went to cwp's popular after that cause Gwen wanted to get stationary to calm her down.There,I ended up playing hide & seek.All because I wanted to avoid seeing S.Haha,it was nerve-wrecking.Trying to hide and seek.Haha.Despite my attempts to avoid S, S saw me in the end.Shit happens.haha.Thanx Gwenie for playing Hide & Seek with me. So fun right?????Ya right.I never wanna go through it again. All the above happened on a single day-Friday. Now, to the current issues.South Africa's delegates are stressed.They feel like quitting.But, they know they can't.They have to perservere.Because of SMUN 2006, delegates of South Africa have been going home late like about 10plus for me and 9plus for Gwen.This has been happening for the past 1 week.Im in deep shit.Haven studied for Lit.South Africa has taken up too much of my time,too much of everything in actual fact.Well,the good news is that the position paper has been given the ok.Now,we just have to send it to the organisers.Bad news.... There's more shit to come.Its been a ride i'll never forget.Too much work in too little time. Gwen and I have already made plans to go to some beach on the last day of SMUN 2006 to scream our lungs out.We need it.Now I just feel too tired to even study for Lit.I know i should.N i probably will try to read something at least.But i guess that whatever that goes into my brain will just come out an hour later.Too tired to absorb.Too drained. Press on Gwen, rehearsals on Tues, till late I think.SMUN 2006 in about a week. It's the constant and determined effort that breaks down all resistance and sweeps away all obstacles. - Claude M.

This week wasn't that bad even though I have not done what im supposed to do.Met up with my friend for dinner on Friday.Thank God for the Public Holiday.It was definitely a much needed break : )Went to Taka to get something for Gwendex.Had dinner at Swensen's to celebrate my friend's B'dae.His treat.Haha.As usual, i did not finish my food.Surprisingly, I couldn't even eat much of the ice-cream.After dinner, we basically slacked ard while waiting for the movie to start."when a stranger calls" is full of suspense, but in my opinion, there wasn't a plot.there wasn't a story.Just some crazy stranger who decided to make pranks calls to a babysitter who was babysitting 2 kids in a super huge mansion.After the movie, we went for a drink.Thanx to the alcohol, I had a proper sleep for once.A sleep where nothingness invaded my mind.Saturday was spent lazing ard and reading all the books that Jezz brought to my house.Now, its already Suunday and I have not done anything related to schoolwork.Sigh.



I sat in a meadow whilst a breeze blew across the fields.
Bolstering the sweet smells of timber and grass.
I close my eyes and with nothingness.
I feel.
I feel the unknown where you abide.
Where the simple joys ride the breeze, like the melody of your song.

As I sat, reflecting, I perceived shapes rescinding in form.
I sensed the oneness of life.
Then while sitting, a breeze commences to blow.
Purging from within.
It ensues across my hands.
I feel its' phenomenon in my heart.
I probe its' delights.
Like the songbird, my spirit sings in the valleys of my heart.
Its' hymn echoing through my soul.
Like indigenous sounds in a forest.
Brimming with Gold.
