我来到　你的城市

走过你来时的路

想像着　没我的日子

你是怎样的孤独

拿着你　给的照片

熟悉的那一条街

只是没了你的画面

我们回不到那天

你会不会忽然的出现

在街角的咖啡店

我会带着笑脸　挥手寒喧

和你 坐着聊聊天

我多么想和你见一面

看看你最近改变

不再去说从前　只是寒喧

对你说一句　只是说一句

好久不见

拿着你　给的照片

熟悉的那一条街

只是没了你的画面

我们回不到那天

你会不会忽然的出现

在街角的咖啡店

我会带着笑脸　挥手寒喧

和你 坐着聊聊天

我多么想和你见一面

看看你最近改变

不再去说从前　只是寒喧

对你说一句　只是说一句

好久不见

Some shots from the National Inter-Schools Track & Field Championship and NDP rehearsal...


It's been a while since i've updated...Now working for EA SIC as a game tester...hahaha...how cool is that...getting paid to play games...hahaha...but it's not as gd as it sounds...really tiring on the eyes...but still..pay is gd..so cant complain too much..haha..

Watched The Dark Knight last week end Gd show..everyone shld watch..it's the best of the Batman series......went to Ming Song's studio opening after that...congrats to him..his place is nice..but studio a little small..but location is gd..so i guess it's give and take..

Was at the Track & Field competition...times pass really quickly...come to think it was around 5 yrs already..haha..ooold liaoz....

seeing my coach..Mr Ang...and the rest of the PE department...feels gd to see them again..and the best is they still remember my team of year 2004...getting the bronze medal in the 4x100 metres relay...Thinking back...my life has changed so so much...lol...fat oso..haha...now the belly is like nv ending growth...lol..have to do something abt it...
Back at work..this team whereby i was working with have a daily sharing session..anything and everything...i feel it's a gd way of building a gd rapport with one another...something i've learn and hopefully can make use of it somehow in the future...

Been enrolled into the exco member of my sch's photography club...dun really noe wad to do..it's been awhile since i've been into some planning grp..have been following instructions for the past yr...pple say wad i do wad..and it makes the brain really retard now..went for the exco meeting and i was like having no suggestion and ideas to give..feel really bad..gotta use my brain more often then...haiz..

And i just got a message from an old fren...asking me to cover Fairfield's Founders' day dinner...details still being discussed..but i've nv did something of such scale..so dunno if i shld take the deal..haha..haiz..all i need is some confidence and people skills..hmmm..every opportunity is golden...so i shldn't give it up rite??haha...how how how??haiz...

let's hope everything will be fine..haha..just came back from a soccer game at fico..shag..really out of shape..sianz...gotta go slp..signing off now..nitez..

Back from trip...planning for more...

Night life Bangkok..
Oops.....
Penalty!!!!!
Interesting views.....
Peaceful Protest.....

Saying Hi !!
Long lost friend....
OMG....
My own brand....
Really peaceful protest....

Back from the land of ladyboys and tiger-show...wonder why is it call "tiger-show"...lol..

Everything was good other than the horrible air...
We've one man down on our way back..lol..


Having been to the city voted world best...it has open the thirst for me to travel the world....
Gotta find some income though...got a job as a game tester...how cool is that...get paid to play games..omg..once i've the capital...gotta go into investing...kick start my career...


Met up with angela..a very long nv see fren..haha..fellow trackee...talk and talk..so much things in the past that i thought i had already forgotten...din realise i was such a devil in my younger days...leaving for Shanghai soon...wish her all the best...
But seeing frenz travelling all round the world makes me really envious of them...
Money money money..it's so good to have it all...but it's the root to all evil...even Venerable Shi Ming Yi..head of Ren Ci hospital was charged with forgery, conspiracy and misuse of funds...we dunno if he's guilty..but why must such things happen???he's a monk...四大皆空。。。yet cannot resist the temptation...den wad abt normal beings like us...
How contradicting life can be...we've create a system to bound ourselves into...money money..paper only..but it is something...we want many...such a system will never be broken..we're so used to it..everything has a price...everyone has a price...just that we may not be able to see it....
I wanna use photography as a platform for people to realise the harshness of this world...to see what the system we've created has caused problems to many unfortunate souls in the world...i'm not there yet..but i'm working on it...but i have this belief..one day...i can....
So keep a look out for my works...

Tomorrow is national inter-schools track and field finals....it's been 3 yrs...i won a medal 3 yrs ago...can never forget...all the hard work...trainings till late evenings...beads if sweat rolling down the forehead...smell bods...all in the past...passing the baton to SK...shouting cheering the last burst....we got caught up at the very last stride..but we got 3rd...i'm contented...the adrenaline...the anxiety...still can feel it everytime i think back....and tts something no one can take away from you..memories....be it bad or good..they stay with you forever...

you can do many things to forget someone or something...but you'll be surprise that one day..just one day...the very memory u're trying to erase will come back at you...and that is my worth..
Been looking forward to everyday more often...future is not something we can forcast...thus nth is impossible....we just haf to try....

One year

Been a while since i last saw a rainbow...much less rainbow tots...
My heaven's above...

It's been a year...020707....

Feelings gone...memories down...time is cruel...
Still missing...still hurting...dunno when it'll all come to an end...

AN interesting Saturday

A lazy Saturday night with Ben & Jerry's Ice cream..NOt a good news for my growing belly..


Sat...a day where people are suppose to relax and have fun after a week of hard work...but in fast pace singapore..time is really ticking real fast..it's gd to have time to event sit down and relax..much less have fun...

So when i had the luxury of the sat afternoon all to myself...it's was kinda sweet and weird...was suppose to get some blood and gore makeup sets for the coming theme shoot...but instead got some artificial food colouring and flour to make the effect...this market of party and special makeup is really limited in singapore..

Then was suppose to attend the comms parade with sk..but couldn't make it in the end...so there i was in Orchard Rd having the time in the world to do wadeva i want...went to Borders..got myself a book title "Undercover economist" and i spent my lazy afternoon reading with a nice cup of ice mocha...awww....relaxing...

Simple pleasures of life...simple yet nice...

Went home for dinner...but Mom was never happy after Bro's marriage...she felt she's lost a son...after raising him up..she feels tt he simply left her behind...he's always been the one she cared abt most..her center of everything she build on...so when another woman enter..she's threatened and she felt lost...yeah yeah..i noe abt how she feels..but there's nth i can do abt it...it's sth she must learn to let go...

A tub of ben and jerrys sums up this lazy saturday...sunday has come..a new week awaits.

Bro's wedding

Time flies..really...it's was last yr when my bro announced his wedding plans which took place last sat...
Wedding is between 2 person..2 families...and many many pairs of eyes and mouths..if anyone thinks that marriage is between the couple..then you're so wrong...so it's really tough on all parties involved...
My bro has been busy day in and out..mom's been preparing all the necessary stuff...renovation of their new home..i've a part to play..so so many things to take care of...
But come the actual day..you'll feel everything was worth it...we are a simple family..thus the wedding was rather simple..nth fanciful other than realising my brother CAN dance...lol...
I just hope everything will go smoothly for the newly weds and most importantly..between my da-sao and my mom...hope this is the new beginning..the beginning of a wonderful life ahead...hope to see my little nephew sooon..haha..so i can take many many pics!!
And for mom...hope she can take things easy and realised that she had not lost a son but haf a new daughter instead...

Bro, Wish u a happily ever after!!!
