Today I saw a rainbow.
Raw beauty of nature,
Distinct evidence of life,
Reminders of happiness
Today I hear people say
"There's nothing to see in Singapore"
"There's nothing to look forward in life"
"I can't do anything about the situation now"
Today I watched the sun set
Pure greetings from heaven
Basking glory from the cosmos
A usual sight,
But one still not fully appreciated.
Today I see people walking
Walking aimlessly
Walking unconsciously
Some so busy that they can't even walk at all
Today I heard the birds cry
Perfect symphonies of tranquility
Emblems of freedom and hope
Wonderful creations of life
Today I thought to myself
People are truly seeking happiness
People are truly seeking acceptance
People are truly seeking meaning
But why, then
Do they ignore the simple signs of life
Do they accept the cruel face of society
Do they conform to the shape society deems as "Perfect"
If people refuse to even look at the smallest things we have
Then what else can we look at?
So what if it has been discovered
So what if it is always there
So what if it will wait for you
When you don't stop to smell the roses
Sooner or later you'll forget the scent of it
When you don't even try to change
When you don't even try to think positive
When you don't even try to appreciate
How then, can you find happiness?
Today I saw an executive on the way home
She was busy talking on her phone
Busy arguing and planning with her colleagues
Busy trying to clench deals and make profit
Today I saw an old man at the void deck
He was just staring at the sunset
Watching the mothers feed their children
Staring at cars flashing by
But on his face played a smile
And there I think he found happiness
And there I think I found mine

WTFmoment
Alright.
One step closer to sanity, three steps back from reality
I got a weird jive this morning, prolly because I woke up earlier just to go for the band performance thing.
By the way, if any of you noticed about our performance, we sucked badly. Playing a hymn. In chapel.
Anyway, got back to class, felt the sudden rush of sadistic energy, thus was able to stay awake in bio, and actually show some signs of being enthu.
Then I got this weird high from drinking my tei bing.
Which resulted in me "ice skating" on the classroom floor.
Which resulted in Mr Lim scolding me.
Which resulted in him trying it out too.
Right.
Got another high at band.
I actually practiced some parts.
Then went all dizzy and oxygen-deprived
And then went dizzy again from inhaling too much.
Came back and listened to The Extreme 3 times in a row
Then listened to The Cupcake Song
It's a screwed up world, my life is.
That's why I love it
Oh Sweet Suicide.
Happy days!

Catalyst
Flowless life
Sorrowful laughter
Frenzied hastes
Catalyst
Destructive power
Dominion's wrath
Principality against trust
Reactant
Energy released
Hammer of thunder
Songs of fury
Resultant
Thundering earth
Splitting sky
Blood raining from the sky
He smiled
He always smiled
Yet this time was different
This time, he could smell the scent
Sweet scent
Yes, today would be a good day
Catalysts, Reactants, and Resultants
Hear his call
March forth the valley
Take down every wall
Open every heart
Dawn a new world
And set a new order

I Hate Myself
Failed everything
Fell beyond expectations
F***ed everything up
Feel so depressed
Failed band, failed school, failed life, failed religion, failed trust, failed promise
I failed everything
I Hate Myself

Let us run around the little garden
People are stupid
People eat things
Things are not stupid
So stupidity overpowers non-stupid things
-Relation to SMT life-
1)"Zomg! There's a huge creep there!"
"DON'T AGGRO THE THING"
-party wiped out-
2)"Zomg! Enemy team only has 4 people left!"
" Wait they have reinforcements!"
-monster spawns, repeat 1-
3)"Zomg! Item on the floor"
"Goddammit not again"
-monster spawns, repeat 1-
4)"Zomg! Dungeon so noob!"
-monster spawns, repeat 1-
5)"Zomg! I'll try talking to the giant creep!"
" They can't be negotiated with!"
- monster spawns, repeat 1-
6)"Let us run around the little garden!"
"Don't! You'll aggro the monsters!"
-monster spawns, repeat 1-
Gosh, playing Online Games with idiots is just....
Too much to handle
Next time you try training a stupid Singaporean
Think again.
19 deaths in 30 minutes, if that's not a record,
I don't want to know what is.
Luckily it was no death penalty day.
...Zzzz

I really, really hate Valentine's Day
I dunno why
Today just made me feel tired, band prac and all
Couldn't go out, couldn't socialize , couldn't go to church... etc
At least Darren Tay's night safari right lit up my day.
Who knew riding ontop of a speeding trolley heading to a concrete wall could be so fun
The only reason why I'm here right now is because Darren Tay owns.
Period
I hope we get night safari rides in band camp
At night
Pitch black
Speeding
The joy.
I hate Valentine's Day

Puppet Master
Moving unwillingly
Bent over in odd shapes
Prancing around like fools
Controlled by him and him alone
No divine force
No unholy acts
Strings shine in the bright stage lights
Up, down, up, down
His arms move
In odd fashions, like conducting an orchestra
They get moved in his will
They stop at his will
No one has the right to refuse
No one has the right to comply
They wish his death,
They wish it hard
But all of them know inside,
That they cannot live without him
Motion comes from motion,
Forces act and react with other forces
But for them, their lives are predestined by that man
Their acts are irreversible, their minds incapable of any resistance
Soulless, yet living things
Under a soulful, yet dead master
Irony clashes with compassion
Compassion fails to exist in their world anyway
But still
They wish to live
They wish to be like him
They wish to be different from him
But at the end of the day
The strings fall
And the puppets are left dangling
Cold and wooden
Silent, yet they scream in their minds
That little old man slowly kisses each of the wooden things
And keeps them slowly in small, cozy boxes
He then walks away from the theater
Smiling, yet troubled with deep thought
Thus lives the life of a Puppet Master

Anger Management?
One more step
And I swear I'd break out
The candies
And give your face
A big kiss
Which will probably damage your
Broken heart so badly
That the
Joy
Will start gushing out
And I'll
Hug
Your
Happy
Donkey
Home to where
The happiness is
I learnt about selective censorship today by masking words
I learn something -incredibly- -useful- everyday

Goodbye
I saw her blood on my hands.
Red, like rubies... Pure, clean...
Her dead figure lies on the floor, 3 meters away from me
Slumped, oddly bent.
Her face frozen in terror
Her eyes, once brimming with fear, lie cold in her sockets
Her hair, soft and golden, stained with splashes of blood
Her tears, warm and sweet, still drop slowly from her now-dead face
Her hands clutch the small charm I gave her
I slowly walk towards her body
She should have known
She could have known
What was once happy memories come flooding into my mind
Running through the fields
Playing in the grass
Flying small kites
Feeding stray animals
I slowly lift her lifeless body
The bloody mess clings onto her body
Dripping off slowly
Little thick crystals of life death brings
I simply close her eyelids with my hands
And give her one last touch before I leave
Her face feels so cold
So, so cold
I can't think straight anymore
After all, they struck so fast
Her wound seemed to stop bleeding,
Yet the blood kept dripping from the side of her chest
Fatality
I still remember her smile
I still remember our promise
It was simple
To achieve our dreams
To set a bright future for ourselves
Work hard, earn money
Find ourselves both good spouses
After all, best friends stick forever, right?
My mind is in a daze
Something warm pools in my shoulder and head
Oh right, I've been shot too
I smile to myself
I fall to the floor, my vision getting blurred
Something red covers my left eye
I can't think anymore
There is no pain
No hurt
Memories of my life surprisingly leave from me
I cannot recall anything at all
I see her body right next to mine
I see the trail of my blood right next to hers
I smile once again
I feel cold
Cold, so cold
Yet I feel happy
Slowly, I fall asleep
Slowly, my eyes begin to close themselves
Cold, so cold
Sleepy, so sleepy
It's funny how it ends this way
I smile once again, and I am unable to process why
Why it feels so warm suddenly
Why my dreams visit me suddenly
Laying down there
Warm, so warm
It feels soothing
So soothing
Slowly I see her hand stretched out towards me
I reached out
And took it
Hello, I said
Goodbye

Rough Day
Fell asleep approximately 22 times
Got scolded approximately 14 times for that
Got bored easier than usual, didn't wanna bother the scholars for their dictionaries to play Super Mario...
Got even more bored
... and hungry...
Went home, felt angsty on the bus. Tried to control violence towards the noise. Luckily the main causes went off the bus after Dover.
Now now, violence is bad
Went home, saw two people trying to display their love on the bus
"Public Display of Affection" was it?
Well they looked like complete eff-tards... Purposely moving right next to Gabriel and me (we were at the back seats) and started snuggling
Basically I laughed like a retard
Got dirty looks
Oh well,
Life goes on
Bored to death now by work
Tests tomorrow
...
I need my life back
