a time for everything.

Holiday - Boys Like Girls

When I was younger I used to be wild
As wild as an elephant's child
No one could hold me down
No one could keep me around
Now it's your turn, take a shot
Baby, show me everything that you got
Maybe you can keep me alive
Maybe you can get in my mind
But it's only a matter of time

Before I run far away
I need to take a holiday
Maybe it's a fall from grace
I gotta find a new place
A holiday
I'll set off on a new chase
I gotta see a new face
I need to take a holiday

My father, he was always wise
As wise as an elephant's eyes
He couldn't hold me down
He couldn't keep me around
So are you gonna take your shot?
It's the only one that you got
Maybe I'll go out on a limb
Maybe I'll jump in for a swim
When the lights go dim

You know I'll run far away
I need to take a holiday
Maybe it's a fall from grace
I gotta find a new place
A holiday
I'll set off on a new chase
I gotta see a new face
I need to take a holiday
(Need to take a holiday)

A new start
I've broken too many hearts
And I don't have any clue where to go
I don't know
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday

When I was younger I used to be wild
As wild as an elephant's child
And I don't think I'll ever change
I think I'm gonna stay the same

I'll run away
I need to take a holiday
(Need to take a holiday)
Maybe it's a fall from grace
I gotta find a new place
A holidayI'll set off on a new chase
(Set off on a new chase)
I gotta see a new face
I need to take a holiday

Start

I've broken too many hearts
And I don't have any clue where to go
I don't know
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday
All of the wasted time
The hours that were left behind
The answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight

Kind of addicted to this song for the monment. It's those slow emo songs that just keep ringing in your head, and you can't get it out.

i find the lyrics quite relevant to me now (other than the mushy i love you, you love me, but we cant get together nonsense) since killer week is tomorrow. after mugging so much, i still find like nothing has really gone through the thick skull of mine. ):

feeling really uneasy.

also

my plans to fly kite/go rock climbing FAILED MISERABLY!! D:

firstly no one wanted to fly kite. and i didnt know where to buy kites! if anyone knows places to get kites tell me. (:

well starbucks at united square has really really strong winds! i just need to attach a string to my worksheets and it becomes a kite. probably would fly really high. :D

no one wanted to rock climb either. me thinks im quite interested in rock climbing! it's such a cool sport, and every new obstacle is kind of unique (unless you're reclimbing the same wall again and again and again and again, like during hillary challenge!) and when you finally reach the top you get this sweet feeling, which feels even better if the wall was difficult.
it's instant gratification. good for simple minded, retarded people like myself. yay!

so those plans 一败涂地 , give up.

maybe some other time in the september holidays then!

on another note (Z minor to be exact), library cubicles and the airport are nice places to study. (:

Sunday 5 August 2007

distance 4.2km / displacement = 0

since, i'm under the influence of sugar and unable to fall asleep. i shall write an entries to my lonely blog.

i dont even half expect this post to be completed. i dont have much motivation to blog. people are like "yay. this is my hundredth post! happy birthday blog. luv ya. muacks. <3" kind of thing. for myself, i'd go "gosh. i actual completed a blog entries today. not bad. good day to buy 4D."

i swear sugar is my verbal laxative.

anyway.

yesterday was CROSS COUNTRY! i like.

i havent really ran at ri cross since sec one. sec two there was this william tan thing, where we went round and round and rounds circling the now-long-gone ri track. i ponned in sec three for whatever stupid reason that i think im retarded for making. and now im sec four and im going again! nostalgic memories of those days.

i remember when i was in sec one i ran behind mr joeseph chong throughout the race. didnt really know who he was then. well. too big and muscular already. his biceps probably weight ten kay-gee each.

back to the point.

so cross was held in BEDOK RESEVOIR for whatever reason the school had. so they hired 523598345 buses to transport the entire ri population down to bedok. nice. three cheers for global warming.

i think my body was feeling really weird on that day. my throat was extremely dry. so i kept drinking water. but i didnt dare to drink too much, in case i got stitch later on. :/

the three oh clock sun destroyed me.

GEEGEE EX EX.

bedok isnt a goodplace to run please. stupid weird decision to go there. firstly, there are any trees to cover the paths, so its scorching. my hair was half burnt after the run.

secondly, the route suck balls. in macritchie, we dont get to see anything anywhere since the route to the sides are covered by the plants/bird/bees/snakes/cows. bedok is LIKE A FREAKING HUGE LOOP AROUND A BODY OF WATER (WHICH ABOUT 5% IS THE WATER FROM THE TOILET) UNDER THE HOTTTTT SUN, AND LOOKING LEFT ISNT MUCH HELP AT ALL. THE ROUTE MARKERS AREN'T EVEN PLACED PROPERLY, THERE ARE ONLY LIKE TWO ON THE ENTIRE FOUR POINT TWO KAY-EM PATH.

alright finally got that off my chest. feels better.

the start of the race was madness. everyone started chiong/sprinting. and the rest just followed the pace of the people in front. dumb. jin sei tried to block rui yong i think. he gave up after five hundred meters. (:

luckily i didnt follow the crowd. but ruiyong is mad. runs like a horse. by the time i ran five hundred, he was about two hundred/three hundred meters ahead of me. his end time wa 14min++ which is insane for 4.2km.

was super demoralised by the running route. everytime i looked left to find the end point, i'll get more pissed off myself. it's like im going further and further away, no where near the final destination. not good.

blah blah blah blah (insert whatever complement/profanity you want here)

i got fourteenth anyway. quite pleased with myself. (: thought i could get into top twenty five.

wanted to blog about festival of praise and the south american buskers, but im sleepy.

go to sleep now.

i want to fly kite.
