Yay! I'm done with Deathly Hallows! Kinda sad book but, hey, I'm not complaining. Really good plot and all. Haha..
I don't know why I came to update today. Lots of stuff have happened over the weekends but somehow, I can't really put it in words. Stupid mental constipation. Struggling so much with it lately =P
Oh well. I'm at a blank now..
It's so cold these days..

GDF is boooring..
Well, Kinda. When it is a 4hour tutorial and all your doing is just sitting there doodling stuff. Found it hard to link 'design' to 'CMM' for awhile. Time passed and I just adopted the "what the heck" attitude regarding the subject.
Time passed the whole day and yadda yadda yadda. Met up with Amos at about 4 plus then Nat at around 6:30. Felt really good to be hanging out again without fear of project submissions or whatever. Not that I have no more projects for the rest of the semester. =.=
Ate somewhere at Raffles place then spent most of the time just wandering around town, making a fool of ourselves. Almost literally. XD
Not the 'making a fool of ourselves' part la.. As in wandering around town. We walked almost everywhere before we decided to just laze at the esplanade. Drinking coke in glass bottles and just wasting the time away.. Haha.. Makes one contemplate a bit.
Why is it that some people manage to pick themselves up after every breakup and find someone else so easily? Why do I still have this 'thing' that is holding me back? I still haven't found out what the 'thing' is. Maybe it's a fear of making a bad move again. Could it be conscience?
Thoughts of getting back together had certainly crossed my mine. But with so little communication, I wonder if that is even possible. Maybe that long word IS the obstacle. Is it really not meant to be? Is God saying "no"?
Could it be "wait"?

Awoke to the feeling that today may just be well spent. Then I saw the time.
12:57
Nice one, Darius. So much for spending the day to the fullest.
That's my thought process I guess. Waking up late is like wasting the day away. Now much can be done at night when most of my friends are sleeping. There's really not much point in staying up late when there's no one to talk to, be it "real or virtual". Haha...
It wasn't till coming to TP that I realised people can actually stay up so late. I have a friend whom I sometimes doubt ever sleeps at all! Even though he was from a JC before he came here, sleeping at 4 or 5 was the norm for him. Amazing..
Then there's another one who looks like she's going to doze off any moment. Really. Turns out sleeping in is a real treat for her. Oh well. The world is vast. =P
What a drag today was. Wasn't in the mood to do any work(Probably due to the fact that I woke up so late..). So I took the chance to finish up 'Half-Blood Prince'. Just started on Deathly Hallows. Yea yea.. I'm lagging behind. Like I give a shit..
I just got to move on, dammit.. It's just no use. especially when I ended the whole thing.. Move on, dammit. Move on....
It was a cold day today..

I dare not yet say that it's over. Sure, marketing project's due tomorrow and everything's more or less done. Yet, I'm not getting that sense of gratification I usually get after I finish a big assignment.(Eh. Group projects are damn big okay..) I guess it is only after the whole report is handed up will I feel at rest. Ahh......
Oh man.. Just got handed something to do. Haha.. Will be back.....
Alright, I'm back.
I really think I did really little. And when I am given a task, I can't do it right. Always asking my group members questions about how to do it as though they are supposed to tell me how. It's like I don't have a mind of my own or something.
Just use your brains for once la, Darius!
I feel so unreliable. My contribution evaluation will probably be 5 or something, and I would be thanking God for that too..
Have I been thanking God? He seems so far away these days. Have I wandered astray for so long? I want to say it's because of my projects that I'm so busy. But what does Matthew 6:33 say? Why haven't I "seeked first the Kingdom of God and its righteousness?"
Oh, how many times have I broken Your heart?
But still You forgive if only I ask....

Media & Society deadline: 23rd July (Monday [3 days away])
Communications & Media Marketing deadline: 25th July (Wednesday [5 days away])
Wow. I sure know how to manage my time. With all my projects this close, I must be such a genius(geh-nee-oos) to have been doing what I've done the whole day..
Had GDF lessons in the morning. Had to turn down an 'invitation' to go to the movies with a friend in the afternoon, thinking that the day would be well spent finishing up the MedSoc project.
Turns out not many people were very interested in staying after school to do the work together and so we 'parted ways'.
Went to Tampines Mall (The worse place EVER, honestly) with a couple of friends for lunch. With Haikel in our midst, our options for food were either boring crap or non-halal delicacies.
I swear we were all deranged from the hunger. Never would I think this would be the solution to our starvation problem:
First thought: SIAO ARH!!
Second thought: Walau.. Damn hungry sia..
Third thought: Ah, what the heck.
Honestly, it wasn't before entering the cinema that I realised that we can just order popcorn and eat it somewhere else other than a theatre!
Oh well. The Order of the Phoenix was nice=P
Sorry Elena.. Next friday?
Guilt sank in and I made two random decisions on my way home.
- Get a haircut.
- Go to the library and get a book.
Both were accomplished. -.-
Check it out! It's the 20th of July 2007! Means: 20072007!
I got life sia...

It's the 17th of July and the last post was what, March 14th? Man, its been a long time. Not sure if I'll get the hang of it again.
Lots of stuff has happened since the last time I posted. Updates: I'm now in Temasek Polytechnic taking up a Diploma in Communications and Media Management.
And through this 3 months that I have been missing, God showed me once again that He is indeed, sovereign over all. Yes. ALL. Thank God I didn't make it to SAJC. I found out that He put me in Temasek Polytechnic for a purpose, that is to share the Good News of salvation to people who are still outside His Kingdom. Haha.. I'm still amazed at how things turned out even as I type this.
Since my last post, I met many new people from different backgrounds. Having once again come into an environment that does not hold Christ in high regard, it would be a struggle to shine for Him. Well, He didn't say it would be easy, did He?
It sure isn't now. That's why I'm resting on God each day for strength. And He never fails=)
There were 22 people in my tutorial group when I first got there. (23 now that a new guy transferred in like, 2 or 3 weeks into school term.) I thank God for putting me there together with Lisa. Haha.. Sure have got to know her better after school started. Then again, oh great, now I have to see her everyday XP
Alright. Fast forward to 16th July(yesterday).
With the Gospel Rally past, school life kinda resumed. Really glad when someone told me about 5-10 people went forward to receive Christ into their lives on the last night. YAY! The Bible says that even when one sinner repents, the whole of heaven rejoices over that lost one who was found. I can only imagine the rejoicing in heaven that night=)
Anyway, I was rudely brought back to the reality of project works. With the deadlines being next week, getting started this week could only ensure the way we are screwed would be a little less painful. Fact is, with others coming close to finishing their work, I'm actually getting a little worried. Now I don't know if I should quit Archery (my CCA) or not, seeing how I haven't been to training for the last 2 weeks...
Gotta go to school now. Yes. Poly timetables are a little, odd.. Will change the skin later tonight. Maybe.
Oh Lord, I need Your help. I really do..
