AND THE DARKNESS THAT IS THE SKY

Quite a bit has happened over this week for me. I bought my first electric guitar. squier fender tele standard. vintage blonde. i love it so much that iam gonna give it a name. Its a girl and she's called "khoonbeng"! okay, i was just kidding about that. he will kill me if he learns about this.

then there was this prank call from a friend. about me getting recommended by some friends to perform at the singapore arts fest. that was a good one actually. but hey, i saw through that. good try anyway :)

oh yeah glad that im done with critical reasoning skills test. i think i did pretty well. after all it all boils down on how you carry your message across to the teacher. and they always say that Patricians are good talkers and i pretty much think thats true. cause my partner who did the test with me, halfway told me that i would sure would get an A. well, i hope.

and yesterday my class visited the youth flying club. was actually thinking of joining the club. i could have a pilot liscense in a year's time if im good. but it takes up alot of my time though. so i guess not.

and today was a day just (un)like any other. out of randomness, dad asked me if i wanted a watch he just bought. i went around in circles before accepting it. dad rock sometimes.

have you ever asked yourself, as the world keeps spinning each passing moment away, is our world crashing down? recently, there was the cyclon nargis which blew myanmar away. then there was the earthquake in china. and when its over - its not really over. death tolls rises with each passing. higher and higher. and when people see lives as numbers, imprints and texts... newsreels and feeds, i wonder if we are able to associate the value of this loss.

and the people that survived. many of which face poverty, sense of loss, hope and helplessness. and that i pray that somehow these people will not be forgotten and forsaken. and that new life would write over the past. maybe only through these events that we could be awakened and learn the true value of life.

Heres to hope.
