"Your Song" by Elton John 

I can't think of any song to represent my blog entry....so its Your song...actually I prefer the Ewan McGregor version in Moulin Rouge...Haha...

My first time on stage today....So happening!!!!! I found my true love in singing in the choir.......I just feel so energised when praising and worshipping God on stage.....seeing the masses of people and occasionally myself on the big screen....Haha....No.......I am happy because I can finally start serving God...the others are just bonuses....

My cell group celebrated my birthday for me today...so happy...........in the times of stress, they are there for me....Thanks guys if you are reading this especially Faith...But its a pity I couldn't join you all after service for fellowship cos' I need to rush back to my books....Last week...I promise....

1 more day............and its time for battle.....

ARRRGGGHHHH
I banged myself on the side of my table and i am bleeding from the inside of my cheeks.....Hope I didn't lose any info from my brain from that slight concussion to my cheeks...Haha

"Jaded" by Aerosmith 

"Jaded..........JJJJJJJJJJaded.."

My second time feeling like a walking zombie more of a jaded one......And the funny thing is that I didn't even do anything much today......I guess I am just jaded......it happens to everyone else....But i am intending to do some late night studying cos tomorrow is a busy day for me in church.........

Survivor was a recap today, probably that's why i didn't have an extra boost of energy after watching the show........ Boring day for a boring period of time.....

I have a sudden urge to work out during the holidays......Haha....get myself into a lean mean machine...........Probably to attract more girls......HAha.....Or probably I just want to pass my IPPT.......

~~~sIgH~~~

the song desperado is still on my head..........it is such a nice song......Do have a listen....quite meaningful also........

Jaded kennie needs a reboost from somewhere.....

"BLAH BLAH Black Sheep.....Have you any wool??" 

This exam has been taking a toll on me......not only do I feel stressful but I feel so unhealthy..........I never thought I would wish for more time so that I can go work out.......I feel so unhealthy....blah!

From the looks of my tagboard, everybody seems to be offline.......at this period of time.......Or they are getting sick of reading my blog........I feel so unliked.......blah!.......Haha......

Blah....Blah....Blah....Blah
Blah....Blah....Blah....Blah
Blah....Blah....Blah....Blah
Blah....Blah....Blah....Blah

Now in Channel Newsasia.........
What is the biggest turn-off in a woman???

Hmmm..........Think about it.......I better not say anything or else I will be more unliked.....HAha....

As you can see, I am writing gibberish....Oh wait...American Idol will be on tommorrow......YaaY!!! Must watch.......but if you want to study, you might want to give it a miss....but you shouldn't give it a miss just because of studies but then again it would be a disaster if you don't want to miss it if you have not finished studying..................But heck! I will WATCH!!!!

Simon Cowell......my new idol.....Haha......the master of sarcasm....

"Burn" by Tina Arena 

" I want you to burn, burn for me baby "

I was indeed burnt today. Today I felt like a walking zombie....After waking up, my intention was to get to school in the quickest time possible so that I could mug in the library. But guess what, I couldn't even walked properly and I dissuade myself from going to school. And I did......I only started studying today at the time of 9pm.......And that was after my church service where I got rejuvenated and motivated by God......I love you God...and I felt you today.......Thank you for being there for me always......

Anyway, was wanting to ask you guys whether are you people interested in watching The Passion of the Christ......cos i got lobang haha.........it will be free for you guys if you want to go with me..........

Tomorrow is the day......Medical library here I come!

"Can't Take That Away From Me" by Mariah Carey 

One of most favourite songs ever.......a top 3 in my list I would say. It is such a meaningful song and I teared when I saw the MTV even though its Miss top heavy Mariah Carey lying in a Cleopatra pose most of the time singing......with her soaked wet Tee.... Haha....But really its a nice song.....

Why did I bring this up??? Haha...I thought this song is really good to listen to when you are in times of stress, when you are down.......And they can't take away my holidays!!! I want them badly! 2 more weeks and counting...........

Read Diana's blog, really empathise with you man..... It must suck to have a bad neighbour........ But at least you 2 sat down and settle things......It must have felt better even though it might be aimless...Haha....

Mug hard and I wish for everyone the best on my birthday! :)

"You Keep Me Hanging On" by Leah Labelle 

Hmmm......My first day really studying at home......I guess its definitely not as productive as in school but I am thankful that at least I did a fair amount today.....Read Stanley's blog........yaaaaay.......I got mentioned.... Haha......It does feel like a sin if you are not studying.........Well its back to the library for me tomorrow.....and hopefully everything will be smooth.......

Once again my heart really goes out to everyone preparing for our biggie......No doubt one of the worst period I am going true right now.......not the worst but one of the worst.......

American Idol was pretty draggy today.......I was suprised.... thought I liked the show.....I do but it is just that there are too many power vocals....a bit boring though......all the girls sounded the same except for the lousier ones....Haha.......... My favourite is still the hobbit Jon Peter Lewis.........And Jasmine Trias........she is so cute....Haha.....

OK my title is dedicated to Leah who sang the worst today according to the judges but I was almost bored to tears when Amy Adams (pink hair girl) and John Stevens (Frank Sinatra wannabe) sang.

All of a sudden, I enjoy Simon Cowell on TV.......Haha

Nothing to offer 

I really have nothing to write today...If I have to write, it is going to be about school work again so I will spare you readers today.
I have nothing to offer today. My brain is already over filled with info. My analogy about mugging today. I told it was interesting. I believe everyone feels the same........ Our brain is like a Na-K ATPase pump.........3 Na ions in exchange with 2 K ion moving out.....Haha.....just like how we cannot seem to remember the stuff we studied the previous day..........

I take that back..........I believe some people in our class has symport channels............accepting info from 2 sides.......Haha....Looks like it is back to mugging again......I always digress......

All of a sudden I feel like screaming at the top of my head to let some steam off.........
AAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SUN-day NOt! 

Hmmm.. frankly speaking, I got nothing to say today. I am just trying to keep my blog updated. And to keep my ardent readers satisfied... :)

Sunday sunday sunday..........the day when I can always wake up late unless I miss my saturday church service. The day I can take long afternoon naps after lunch and feel fat after that. The day I can enjoy my dinner with parents at Prince coffee house or Keppel Club. The day I can be a couch potato after dinner at home even though it is aimless.

Well my sunday today I spent it on gaining knowledge for the upcoming trials starting on the day of my birth 21 years ago. I think I should stop whining on my blog about mugging. I think my friendly happy blog has been at the degenerating process of becoming a place to complain......

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY.......HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR HAPPY WATEVER.....

OK I just lost a bit of sanity just now.........so to those who needs to contact me, you can find me at my new address MEDICAL LIBRARY, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE.............I haven't got a phone installed yet so get me on my mobile ya!

"When I See You Smile" by Firehouse 

Oh no...I am getting hooked on this song!!! Haha......after Matthew Metzger sang this in the wildcard show in american idol...........I think its a beautiful song........a must listen......I wished he went in. I think he really got a nice voice but anyway........

I have been doing speedy mugging.....cos I realised that I have only 4 days to study for each subject which is pretty much impossible.....it worries me that I might not be able to recall the facts on the examination day but I think its better to have a overview idea of everything than missing a few chapters.......

I really wish for the best for everyone..........cos it is definitely a trying period...........and only we dental students will be able to understand our own plight...........Friends outside....please forgive me for not meeting up for such a long time...I promise everything will resume to normal after 2/4 for at least a month..... :)

The time has come............ 

Apologies for my little Houdini act for the past week. I have been busy mugging for the many tests to come and finally its over today but the time has come indeed for the preparation of the big exams I am having which is coincidentally starting at my birthday. Thanks for the present ya......

The class has been going into a mugging frenzy already immediately after the physio test.... Guess its a hint for me to start soon!!!!

Just finished watching American Idol. Really enjoyed Jon Peter Lewis with his Elvis song. Though I thought there were some who got robbed. But hey that's life I guess..

Well for my survivor prediction, I am predicting an Alicia or a Jerri boot barring all twists.......Remember you all heard from me first.....haha..... Remember to watch it though at 8.30.........

Oh yah happy birthday to shenhua and gengfeng!

Spurts? 

Sorry for the absence.....my stupid darn tagboard doesn't seem to be working....I am reaching the final leg of tests with the last physio test for yr.1 until the biggie on the 29/3 which happens to be my birthday.. What a great present for me.....in advance......

Results for the tests were out and I thought I did okay but didn't fare well when it comes to the class average.........DA bombed....Anatomy bombed.....Physio my only saving grace.......Goes to show my speedy mugging doesn't guarantee good results......

Well not dwelling on the past don't wish too....Shoulda woulda coulda.......take everything with a pinch of salt........................you are your worst enemy........I guess I am experienced in not doing well.....maybe that's why I am able to take it with stride...... But sometimes it is a bold front and deep down inside I am really disapponted at myself....... But how much can you ask for someone with a PSLE grade of 203........haha.... This much??? Well I think I am doing fine.....with God by my side, who can be against me??

Mugged in the library today......suprise suprise.......Decided to do myself a favour and went to chop off my hair with Clement early in the morning at teban gardens....Why am I talking in spurts??? I guess I am too lazy to write full sentences....

And my hair still smell of the dye haha.......

Big Fish 

Well I have decided to switch my blog back to the layout cos' I heard it hangs people computer so for the better of my readers and to satisfy no.25 for a happier layout, it is BACK!!!

I have decided to be a little movie critic of my own so I will dedicate this blog space into a movie review after watching a movie!!

To watch Big Fish or not, that was the thought that was pondering on most of our minds in the afternoon. After I walked out of the cinema, I was glad to have made the former decision. To tell you the truth, I thought that Big Fish was a cheesy title for a movie....I mean Big Fish?? Well even a fishy movie like Finding Nemo doesn't have the word Fish in the title....Haha....Anyway Fish Leong is on my computer speakers now.....Back to my review...

Something that struck me throughout the movie was that this movie was depicted through many flashback scenes. It is something different compared to the normal progression in most movies nowadays....The only movie I can think of that has a different way of delivery is Memento.........but I welcomed the flashback scenes with open arms. While some might feel that it is quite disruptive, I thought it was an ingenious way.

What I brought back after the movie is an issue that struck me close to my heart. It is still a lingering issue whether did Edward Bloom told his son the whole truth. But I reflected upon the point on the amount of contributions Edward gave to the people he never really knew. Do I really want to live this life of mine impacting no one or do I really want people to feel that I have been a blessing in people's lives. The scene of Edward Bloom's funeral struck me dearly. To go with so many people at your funeral whom you have impacted throughout your lives at your funeral is WOW! That was a scene.

The cast did a great job on a whole....Ewan McGregor bedazzled me again with his charisma after Moulin Rouge. I still think that he is one of the more talented actors around. Danny Devito and Steve Buscemi were nice to have as cameos. Helena Bonham Carter was better off looking as a witch than an ape in Planet of the Apes. Billy Crudup (William Bloom) ............ I thought I saw his name before...just couldn't remember the movies he acted. Jessica Lange (Sandra Templeton) was nice to see after remembering her as a psychotic mother in law after Gwyneth Paltrow in Hush. Didn't know who Albert Finney (old Edward Bloom) was until today......heard he got some nominations for Big Fish too......

Big Fish was a movie Oscars should have considered...........

Ratings: **** 4/5 There isn't a movie I can give a perfect score....maybe LOTR but nothing is perfect :)
