Different

I stand subjacent in the wake of their success
Only with the power to merely admire
Oh, yes, how different they are
Their shimmering aura, radiating intensely.


At times i wonder.


Is it a flaw that god put me with them
Or is it a just to make me resent
Stuck in the void of an elite world
I can barely understand what's happening.


Should i be ashamed of myself
Should i be repentant
For being a crippled sparrow
To be adopted by eagles.


And even as i fail time after time
They treat me like one of them
Though at times they critisize
They never seem to abandon me.


Thousands of questions rain in my mind
In a world strictly bound to hierarchy
It is a fact that i must embrace
But yet, I do not want to.

Safra AVventura

Hey guys, Oh god Yeah, the photos of the safra AVentura race on 9th sept are out! And as promised, i will blog it! Really want to thank Mr. Goh for all the beautiful shots he took with his camera! Just a brief intro to this race - it's an event which involves biking, running, swimming, navigating, climbing and stuff yeah. It was a REAL good experience. Any outdoor junkies should join this race.

First off, let's introduce the participants of the race...

From the girl's team, we have...





JIA! Sucking like no one's business.




FengYing! Being as shy as ever.


Linken and me! And no, we're not in an affectionate relation.

So the race started off at 7.30, Tampines Safra. Mr. Goh only got the shots of us in the mid and end of the race as he couldn possibly lug his gigantic camera all through the race -.-. Heres one of the few photos he took when we were stuck in a bottle neck.. Sheesh.. Goddamned wasted 2 hours there. But we bonded with each other! Haha.

And so the four of us waited enthusiastically for our equipment.

And waited.

`And i got cramps. And as the chinese saying goes, xiu sou pang guan - linken seems to be perfect candidate for that cheng yu.



AND WAITED




AND FINALLY GOT INTO THE WATER. WOOTS.

Aw, isn't that so gentlemenly? Linken aiding Feng Ying in dragging the bike.

After crossing the river, we got back onto our bikes and continued cycling. Oh god, i swam with one cramped leg throughout the whole river, bet you have never tried that before. Woooo... it sure was... exhaustive. From then on, Mr Goh couldn't follow us any further so we continued on our own.

SAAADDLY, on the way, the girls team were forced to stopped as fengying didn't feel veerry well. poor poor feng ying... you got to take care of yoursef, yeah?

Okay, so linken and me proceeded on and i just have to say I WASN 'T AT ALL PLEASED WITH THE NAVIGATION/ORIENTATION TEST THING. Crap, it was an utter screw up and i don't wish to talk about it. I'm sure i got MY bearing correect... and then we went...



ROCKCLIMBING!



Linken was my belayer. He was such a good belayer. =]



and obviously, i was the climber! i scuttled up to the 5m mark in mere seconds. hahaha. I'm so narcissictic. I call this one, 'The Leap of Faith'

Finally! The Reaching of the finishing line! Oh god it was just so euphoric.


AND YES. RELISHING OUR HARDWORK.

And the four of us reunited again as one big happy family! Yay!

yk out....!

My New Blog



Hello everybody,yk here. Yes, i've succumbed to it. I'm a BLOGGER Ya'll! After all the months of hesitation and peer pressure, i just HAD to do it. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT GUYS! (*with all due respect =])

Okay, first, let me lay down some vital concepts before i start my journey posting and tagging my life or whatever stuff you guys have been doing for the past year, years, months. THIS IS NOT, i repeat, IS NOT AN EMO BLOG. OKAY? i hate emo blogs. Thank you. And please... if you want to spam, go eat your own hat okay?

Let's start with a brief intro on my blog. Okay, you'll probably be like.. 'Hey... like what the nila f*** is this blog about?!?!' But noooooo it's not nila f*** or hell or whatever. Theres more to it than meets the eye... It all started (my enlightenment) when i was playing the classic game of Half-Life...

When you enter the game, there would be this chapter called 'Anomalous Materials'. You'll be this dude called Gordon Freeman and he specializes in handling these... wierd, alien stuff. BUT, everything goes awry during and experiment and aliens start teleporting to earth. It was then when i had that enlightenment, like the buddist dude under the tree...

'ANOMALOUS MATERIALS'... Mysterious... Bizzare... Unknown... JUST LIKE ME. HAHA. And i immediately snapped those shots of me with my NEW PHONE (which i will be coming to later on) Z610i, and edited it in adobe. And... ANOMALOUS MATERIALS WAS BORN! you can call it aberrantlynormal if ya wanna too.

OKAY AND WHAT A GOOD WAY TO START MY FIRST POST WITH A NEW PHOOONNNEEE. Z610i is just SO COOL. The way the little twirly lights dance about the clamshell seems so... ethereal. Yes. It's aesthetically superior to ALL other phones! MUAHAHHA! but sadly, it's camera functions doesn't seem that magnificent compared to my moto.. But hey wth, it still rocks. (dont ask me why my picture is in landscape.)




Actually, i would have still been using my moto... if not for the fact that i know nuts about waterproofing phones when swimming -.-.......... Well, maybe it's a blessing in disguise... or whatever, but i feel so irresponsible for screwing up my moto... okay let's not phase into emo mode, shall we?

Ah well, i've come to the end of my very first post! It shall be remembered as a significant benchmark in my life forever...

Yk out
