Why is it they treat you so coldly;
Yet they come to you only when they need something that only you can offer?

Remembrance & Forgetting
Remembrance & Forgetting
Today has been a tiresome...Yet somewhat fun day...
I had bile rising in my throat since I woke up and now I don't feel so good.
So I'm here now to tell you a story...
Of the guy who walks in the rain with an umbrella but doesn't use it.
Where's my life?
We've got tuition classes,studies,musical lessons,co-curriculum,a load of worthless projects shoved up our case,mid-years,PMR/SPM.........(the list goes on...)
When can we actually get some space and air?
What will it take to make them see that we don't live for qualifications and studies?
This is exactly how my band fell apart.
Speaking of bands....
Take a look at Seafield band...
We have ex-committee members coming back to assist,give advice,oversee the band's progress and events.
Now the question...
Why do they come back?

Reason/Logic & Faith/Feelings
Reason/Logic & Faith/Feelings
Pretty interesting topic anyone can press on.
There are times in life where we have to put each one aside.
Let's say in mourning.
How long will you mourn in your heart?
Just because someone dies doesn't mean your life is over..
So in that we muster up our feelings....
Move on with life....
Possibly leave a part of yourself behind...
The other scenario is that your best friend has a dark secret which you swore never to disclose.
Speak of the devil and bang.
Our schools teach us that telling the teachers about them is doing the right thing.
.....Very seldom this is the case.
In doing so we throw away our conscience,our feelings....
Maybe a friendship....
Help the friend yourself....
Like I do. =D
So in most cases when this happens....
(Providing it's not something like smoking,addiction to alcohol that sort)
Throw away your reason and logic...
I need say no more.
Think about it.

Fresh from a long morning of the not-so-frying sun
Fresh from a long morning of the not-so-frying sun
It was Seafield's 13th Annual Sports Day this morning.
Personally had a great time with the band.
So here's the tale...
At 6:30 or so I arrived at the school.
Met Pn Chow at the gate.
Proceeded to the hall.
1st sentence I hear: Why you come?
A moment later Jessica saw me and passed me this tag.
(picture taken at MPSJ)
About 6:50 the bus arrived.
Stocked two boxes of mineral water.(which was later unneeded!)
Zek Zhao left his bottle at the hall so I had to guard his trombone.
The bus was crowded:
With instruments and people.
Some of us had to stand,some had to seat 3 people in a two-seater.
Someone proclaimed that we were already late.
So....
Rush rush.
People with instruments scurrying down the bus corridor and a passing on of instruments went on.
Proceeded to the band tent.
Tien Jia gave us Crew peeps some assignments.
Everybody settling down.
The bags and casings.Spot yours?
Vincent with Pn Sophia.Handling his video cam.
The Line-up.

The Line-up.Before getting into line-up,
Emily passed me her handphone to take care of.
Buzzing in session.
A really loud pep talk and last minute stuff with the VP.
Shaun turned up.
Shaun passed me belongings to hold on to.
Some other insignificant stuff....Let's get on to the march.
So much later after several running events the marching was about to commence.
I was assigned Vincent's video cam.
Went over to the stands to take the video.
Anyway,once they settled in I....
Basically I passed the cam to Kee Wei,who was at the time - free,went over to take 3 bottles of mineral water.
You know....
At that time the sun hadn't even shown its face yet.
Clouds were streaming overhead.
I doubted anyone would want a drink.
Out of my line:
Accepted the drink.
Tracey
Zek Zhao
Azhar
Didn't need one.
Tien Jia
Jit Qi
The cymbal dude whose name I don't know.
Sher Nong.
7 people....I think...
Later on was a lot of sitting around....
Had some chat sessions.
Ate a pizza slice (RM3) sponsored by Pn Sophia.
After a really long time....
The 2nd march was about to begin.
Azhar and Zhenbon started speaking Japanese to people.
A wave failed.
At 1:00.
I had to go...
Didn't want to be late for piano class.

A Long Time Coming Round...
A Long Time Coming Round...
Ah...
Today was a long day.
For barisan people.
For our one and only Seafield Band.
For Pn Sophia.
For The Great Four of the band.
For Sports House flag leaders.
For our persevering percussion team who need to keep the beat at all times.
For Sher Nong the percussion team leader.
For all the rest who had a LOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGG day.
And for me who got stuck at school...
Today was my 1st day doing worship for CF.
(Was I supposed to be doing it?)
Didn't even know I was supposed to do it till they asked me to.
The chords were all in front of me and I mucked up a little here and there...
So later during our mini-sermon I played some stuff I knew.
Now comes the (not so) funny part.
I exit-ed school at around 2:15.
Only to find Missus Leslie who wasn't there.
So I waited...
Talked....
Waited....
Waited....
Annnd....Waaaiiiiitted.........
Drone drone....
Tried to call my mother continuously since then.
I went in...
Tried a few more times....
Then I went to Rushan who was hanging out with her choir gang to ask Missus Julia (not Julia Chow) c/o Jit Qi to come for me as I couldn't think of Missus Julia's hp no.
Actually Nicholas 1st....But his hp was back home.
And so Rushan typed the "SOS" SMS for me...Her SMS controls were confusing for me.
Later....
Another long wait...
Found XP....Went over to him for a little chill...
Bought burgers for us both....
Later I went out again....
To find no one...
And it looked like it would rain soon...
Desperation gripped me.
I went to Vincent's to inquire of the 'secret door' he once mentioned...
Unfortunately Vincent got stabbed on the side of his right sole by a big thorn on a twig.
Still he showed me the passage which led to the motorcycle pass of the Kesas Highway.
It was like a portal from USJ 2 to USJ 3.
Walked home....
Gave explanations to mother,Missus Julia (again,not Julia Chow) and Encik Ahmad.
Missus Julia said she was coming but I explained what happened and that's that.
And Here I Am.....
As of now...
Special thanks to....
Pn Sophia for inviting me to help out band tomorrow.
Pn Loy for Maths revision.
Pn Zunaidah for the short but entertaining experiment.
CF for such a great time of worship.
The CF worship team for the opportunity to play keyboard.
Tzi Ying,Julia,Paul,Shee Fong,Sze Jie,Xi Yuin,Sher Nong,Siow Ke-Wei,Johnathan Ding,Kai Xiong,Mike,XP and a few names I can't seem to recall for their company.
Ke-Wei for lending me his phone.
Rushan for the 15 cents to sms Jit Qi.
Jit Qi for calling Missus Julia.
Missus Julia for willing to go fetch me...Though I was already back by then.
Vincent for the accompaniment.
Encik Ahmad for not minding.

Life Is Like A Circle....
Life Is Like A Circle....
A circle...
Meaning without an end?
Or not moving on?
Meaning a chain of memories?
Or inescapable fate?
What is the purpose that life came to be?
To what point do we think?
Are thoughts even real?
Are WE even really existing?
Are feelings illusions or perceptions?
What ARE feelings?
Why is it you've got to understand something complicated before you can simplify it?

There's nothing left but the lack of time
There's nothing left but the lack of time
It's crazy the way we are.
It's funny how things happen the way they do.
It's scary how it gets so obvious.
It's stupid the very thought of you.
It might be all inside my mind....
But I'll hang on to this wild hope....
That maybe it's true....

"Neither.I choose to walk the middle path of twilight."
"The path which leads to nightfall?"
