U are winners in your own heart

I just wish to say this. Efforts put in will not be wasted. Even though the wind blew off the shelter, the process of making it is seen and captured. There is no need to feel remorseful about it. The time spent every week reflects on your committment to the team. Your determination, your hard work. The feeling might be terrible, the worst situation ever might float to your brain. But matters most is that u have told yourself u have done your best. Tell yourself, the time spent was not wasted. The happy moments u all shared, the bonding between cadets and NCOs. The judges see it all. They look out for what have u done to achieve the product and not mainly what your product was. And not crying out does not mean u do not feel for the team. It just shows that you are not trying to get emotional and wanting to resolve the situation. Whatever the case, I just feel proud for the ZHSS NPCC 2006 CC girls team. Going through all the scorching sun, bad weather, rushing through homework, fighting for more time. All hope is not lost yet. What still remains is the beautiful memories, the amount of effort put in and the great bonding formed. That shall never be forgotten. Learning to recover from setbacks even make u stronger. Life is never and is not going to be easy. But the enduring and determination to go through the tough life displays your character and makes u even stonger. Every time u get pushed down, u come back up even stronger.

I too share the pains for the campcraft girls team. Even though I am not part of the team, I can still feel the pain inflicted when u do not get your desired results even though 101% of effort is put in. I have gone through the same path before. But life still goes on after that.

How do people judge one another I would like to ask. For me, I would have 3 things. 1st, evidence which tells the tale. 2nd, witnessess who tell the truth and 3rd, the wisdom to evaluate both. Should anyone have any other definitions of judgement, please feel free to post at the tagboard. I just want to know what do u think of the word judgement.

I just read this quote about friendship. Here it goes. At the heart of every friendship, one will find these 3. Respect, Trust and Understanding. I find it quite true because that's what's friends are for.

1 moment I am free of the chains. As time goes by, I feel that I am locked up by it again.

Heard lots, saw lots and now I want to say lots

Ok, its just 1 day after I have posted my long post, but isn't it unbelievable that I have oberserved so much in just 1 day?

!st thing, after my post yesterday night. Well, this is to the person involved. Apologies to you should I have said something sensitive but that was what I could observe for this period of time. Maybe I was sharp, maybe not. Whatever the case, if you have not done anything wrong, there is no need to turn hostile or get defensive. This is already a way of allowing others to know what is the answer to their question.

Now for some light hearted stuff. Oh, I didnt identify who was bao bao. Haha, that was done out of respect of privacy. Btw ah bao bao, what is so embarrassing? Haiyoh

Ok, for this issue, I do not wish to divulge some of the information because I know who are those involved who are looking at this post. Should u want to ask why are we attacking or going against, why not ask yourself what made us want to go against him. Obviously there is a push factor for us to carry out that action. And mind u, we have done our part. The neccesary was done but the situation became worse. So what do u expect us to do? If u do not want to be part of us, so be it but dont interfere with it.

I just want to ask, should someone not have done anything wrong, why would he or she want to defend him or herself and get defensive over it. The truth lies in your heart and no matter what others say, at the end of the day, it is your conscience that tells u whether are u lying to yourself. It is your actions that have made me feel disappointed in u. If u are true to your heart and stand by your words, no matter what others comment, u will not be affected. Maybe others are just joking. Why be so serious about it. Life is short and other than the times to be serious, we should be enjoying every second of our life and be joyful. U already have the upperhand, so what do u expect me to do? The sight is already very obvious.As for the other party, I dont know. The situation has been set, the hurt has been inflicted.

Oh recently Jun Liang has been mentioning a name which starts with the letter S. Haha. Me and Jons would break into laughter when we hear it. Oops Jun Liang, is it.............. Haha

Passion and love, but mainly not reward, is the driving force behind me.

An eventful week

Ah this week. To me, the week that might be the most terrible but one that can allow me to see things that I have never seen. Firstly before I carry on, I would like to answer a game from Mich. Ok, the 8 points of my perfect lover. I might give some examples along the way of people who display that charactor that I am talking about but that does not mean that I like that person.

(1) Understanding
I like people who are understanding and are able to know and evaluate different types of situations. To be flexible.
I have not found someone who possess that yet.

(2) Appreciative
My perfect lover must know how to appreciate the little things people do for her and to know how to show her appreciation.
People who possess this: Michelle Sabrina and Eunice
( Let me emphasize again, I do not like them)

(3) Honest
Honest with one another and nothing to be kept hidden.
People who possess this: Cheng Zhong ( He really touched me with his honest example )

(4) Tolerant
To be tolerant and to accept other's ctiticism and comments
People who possess this: Cheng Zhong ( Can be quite tolerant at times )

(5) Communicate well with me
Of course when we can communicate, we will definetely enjoy each other's company

(6) Joyful
Joy is the best thing to have in life and I would love to have joy together with my perfect partner

(7)Simple
Not always going after branded goods. Once in a while is fine but not always

(8)LOVE
To love me always

Ok those are the 8 points that I want of my perfect lover

Now let me talk about this week.

A lot of risk taking to do. To trust some people with some stuff and to think if they will betray the group. Some minor conflicts and hostility that broke out but was resolved with understanding. 1 thing that made this week memorable, Cheng Zhong's honesty in telling me something. He really took the initiative to tell it to me and for being honest to me, I will not blame him.

More friends were kicked out from my list of trustworthy friends, and I finally knew who were the ones who would help me in times of troubles.

Today after seeing someone got punished, I was initially quite angry with that person for causing so much trouble. But after some reflective thinking, I realised what I thought at first was wrong. Should I put myself into the shoes of that person, I would really want people to forgive me and to realise that there are rooms for mistakes, even though it might be a silly one. I have experienced this type of feeling and it is terrible. I hope that people can just forgive and forget.

Oh yeah Jamie ah, you look so serious nowadays. And so quiet too. Looks as if someone has just offended you. Smile more, dont be so serious.

Next, bao bao ah, wah on 1 side I have people who are serious. On another, I have 1 joker here. This bao bao ah, everytime like smile dont want to smile like that. Haiyoh bao bao ah. But I have to admit, bao bao looks much cuter and cheekier with her new hair style.

Why do some people think they deserve everything. When you love someone you expect someone on the other hand would love you back too? When you do not really put in much effort but come out of the examination hall telling others that you will obtain full marks or to pass with flying colours? This is naive I should say. Because to me, every amount of effort you put in is the amount of reward you will obtain. U might get away this time, the next time but obviously not everytime.

Anyway today on Mr Ivan Lee's story. I was most impressed by the part on the elder son. I do agree, that when you love someone or something, your passion or your love for him/her drives you on, not the reward because the amount of love or passion that you have has overtaken your desire for the reward

So much to say in this week. For those who read my whole post, I sincerely thans you for taking time off to read

Good luck to the CC girls team, tomorrow's your day. Show to them we are the champions and nothing's gonna push us down.

The feeling is going off, should I persevere or should I let it just go away? However 1 thing is for sure, the beautiful memories will stay in my heart forever.

The Valentine week

The Valentines day week has passed. On that special day itself, many were seen carrying flowers and chocolates to their friends. Thanks jie for the small packet of sweets and chocolates. Roses were sent and delivered to many either by close friends or loved ones. And , I would like to query, what happened to the chocolates I gave the CC boys team? Needless to say, it must have been eaten up by some only some of the CC boys team members.

CY b'day today. Wow, had a small celebration for him. All was quite well until the comment he gave that made me and some others feel a little uncomfortable. Never mind, hopes this does not happen again.

Tomorrow is the CC boys team prelim round. Go for it boys, show the hard work put in and obtain the deserved results. All the best for them.

Just want to pose a question. Those who are willing to answer can post their answers on the tagboard. Dont worry, for I will not go against or discriminate any who give comments. I just want to know more of other's opinions. Here goes the question. Do you make friends because they have the looks, charisma, boldness,having helped you once,associate well with you or do you befriend them because they have the charactor and good values of life and friendship that you are looking out for? To me, I would choose friends whom I think have the capability to think for themselves and know when to make a right decision and to avoid a mistake, even though I do admit people do make mistakes. I feel it is how you pick up from the mistake and carry on, not how you committed the mistake and regret the mistake made. As always, a mistake made is a lesson learnt but 1st you would have to accept the fact that you made a mistake.

Enough of those stuff. Now to some more relaxing ones. Saw Jun Liang with his deck of poker cards today and the way he did his magic tricks were fantastic. Well, I do hope to learn a skill or 2 from him. Meanwhile, Jamie I am sure you are now even better than me in doing the phone-card trick that I taught you . You were twisting and turning it half the training session. Haha. Anyway I am getting a little interested in poker card magic tricks now. They look so cool and are just simply amazing.

Anyway, just got this thinking when I saw Jun Liang holding the poker cards. At first, I thought he was getting the people around him to gamble. But after going nearer, I realised he was actually doing magic tricks. So, what I learnt from this is that we must not judge one's character just by looking at them from far. Instead, we should get close to them, observe them from near and understand their position.

That's all I have to say for the week. Since this is Valentines day week, I would not want to thrash out all the unpleasant stuff. So happy weekend my blog readers and I would just like to end off with a small little inspiring message.

When was life ever easy? Life had never been easy in the 1st place. But it is the determination of one to pull through the sorrows and obstacles of life that builds and displays one's true character.

Maple is so fun

Wow, Maple is just so fun. Spent 1 day analyzing it and how to go about playing it. I do agree to a large extent that it is quite addictive. And yup, I am a magician, thanks to some help from gary. However my studies is still more important so yup, restricting myself to only Sat Maple trainings.

I just find my friend, whom I would like to name as L, very complacent. I know that I am in no position to comment but I just want to say, whether anybody likes it or not. How is it that L feels L will be definetely loved if L likes someone? How does L know if L will be guaranteed with good results and other branded stuff. And what L says is just so contradicting to L's actions. 1 thing I find is that L is just so arrogant. But I am not going to do anything to L, cause I believe L's arrogance will bring about L's own downfall.

Wow, just gave my opinion on this L and I just feel so much better to type it all out.

V.day is coming soon. Wow, can see people going to buy stuff for their beloved and friends. Hah, my poor cousin has got to spend that special day in Australia's army camp with his S'pore trainees while his gf goes abt driving his car. To me, V.day is just a day where you just got to have to show your love to your friends and beloved. But obviously, you have got to display that too on other days.

Should I not be able to blog on Valentines day, then let me wish my blog readers here a happy and joyous valentines day! =)

What you see may not be what is deep inside me

Ok, not updated for long. Jamie just reminded me to today. At least there's someone worth blogging for to see. Thanks for the rest who spent time and effort to see too.

Recently, I found out who are my really true friends and yeah the opposite too. It's quite sad for me, since I am in sec 4 and it is only now that I am realising those who are good and start to appreciate them. ( If I am quiet to you, does not mean you are not my true friend) Those who are worth appreciating and commending are standing at a side of me in the past while those not worth recognising are just in my brain most of the time. But I guess it's never too late to appreciate them now.

Next, how do people judge others? By what they do and what they say? I believe there are 2 sides to a coin. You may judge people by their actions but have you wondered or asked them why did they do that? For eg. punishment does not mean that I am bad, it may mean that I am trying to help you improve.

What you see on the surface of me,let me tell you, is not what I am thinking inside of me. But, still, I find it necessary to take place because I hope to obtain a win-win situation. Sufferings and unhappiness may come now but I do hope that time can change that to more relaxation and better happiness. If you judge me by what you see and are strongly on it, talk to me and you will understand what I am doing. I act based on what I know about. If there is no response or no one to tell me or guide me, I have to do it my way because there is no other advice to follow from. Like what I always think,would you want to be a thief if you were rich? Every-thing happens for a reason.

Today, I found out that Cheuk Yiu is full of funny riddles and jokes. That really amuses me and entertained me for like quite long today. He's also much more sociable and more acceptable to certain stuff which I find is good. The NP people also spent their time today chatting about Maple and stuff and that "cobra" keeps laughing. Well, that's at least better than crying. And I know what, I had better go buy tons of biscuits to put in the NP room, in case Jamie says she is hungry again,right Jamie? Haha.

Said what I would like to say for the past week, enjoy your weekend people. :)

Cleared out

Ah, feel so much better now that I have told someone my thoughts and feelings.

The training yesterday was quite fine. I was quite impressed with the sec 1's level of understanding. They understood the rules of the tele-match quite fast. Not bad. And thanks to the sec 3s who helped me in organising the telematch

This is to Jamie. You do not have to feel guilty because in any sense or another, I really do not see what have you done wrong. Maybe its your eagerness to get the boy's team to improve on their standards that you are getting a little worked up. Like what Fiona said, you did not scold them or did what-so-ever to make them feel demoralised. So do not feel sad regarding this issue. Anyway, on this, I would support the girl's team more.

Ah just remembered. I drank from the mess-tin with the word kerosene on it. Wondered who brought me that mess-tin. Anyway, I am ok now so nothing really wrong I guess.

No more "pork chop" for me today. Aunt invited me to the ching-gay parade since she had a last ticket and it was a good seat.

Recently there's this song called cai hong tian tang. This song's quite nice and yup, I never seem to be tired from listening to it.

I do yearn much to complete it. But now it seems that I have no confidence in continuing the race and finishing it. Should I try another race or continue driving on the tracks? I do not know but 1 thing is for sure, I will let time tell.
