No harvest? but EN route to end
Title: No harvest? but EN route to end
No harvest. That was about it for whole of last week and will be for the coming week till friday - 20 July. I would rather not count down to my assignment deadlines online. I will see the EN route to end, meaning i am on my way to the end of a semester partially very soon. The next few days will be really busy and that i guess i will work through the night. Need inspiration and energy to tide over the period of uneasiness.
I will be back fully to usual state - cheerup one soon, I promise. I will start writing more posts when the coming week is over and try to write part 3 for serial story - First Sight Feel, the Strongest. Aims for a smooth EN route to end.

Yesterday: 7.7.07
Title: Yesterday: 7.7.07
It was 7.7.07 yesterday, my brother's birthday. The entire family of mine hit Swensens for some ice-cream dinner. It was a lovely experience, dim, yellowish light formed a perfect atmosphere for a good dinner spent. I do hope that brother enjoyed himself. Then the birthday ice cream (forgot the actual name) came free as brother presented his student card and was verified to ensure it was his birthday. I thought it was really some surprise to me. I had cookie summit. After having it, i felt as though i was at a mountain summit; satisfied. The once-a-lifetime day - 7.7.07 was well-spent.
'Hakuna Matata' from Lion King means no worries. This song really came in useful for me, for i have felt really stressed.
May all happenings be 'Hakuna Matata'.

Pray, Effort
Title: Pray, Effort
How good it would have been if it is all capped. Cap my project, exams, tuition stress. The word "cap" refers to putting a limit to. I can predict that the next few weeks i would be more than my usual self, given that the weight that i will be put to.
I am exhausted. The usual busy period for students from my school is running. Even when i am not doing anything, i feel stressed. Not a second can be wasted. For my goal, i must work towards it. Meetings for project alone are already taking up alot of time. I can easily feel very uneasy somehow.
I had a tuition with my tutee today. Apparently, she just could not absorb as much as i taught her as yet. I tried ways and means to teach her. But i think more is needed to teach her. Mum actually told me indirectly to quit teaching her if she fares even badly in her coming test than the last one she had. Well, for me, i would want to help her improve as much as possible. I don't want to fail in my tuition assignment since her parents have been investing in my teaching skills, i need to match their expectation - improve. Or else, i would feel guilty for not being able to help my tutee.
Now i can only continue to try my best to teach. Same for my study - put in my soul and effort into them and then pray for better returns. I hope that the returns (e.g. exam results) can at least match or exceeds my expectations (no more disappointment; i just can't take them). Nothing else is distracting me right now which means i am getting focused. The only lacking ingredient in my formula to success is time and effort to put into practices before the 'big ones' in August.
By the way, i am just wondering how well the last post fared? Good? I hope so. :)

First Sight Feel, the Strongest - Part II, "Take it that it never happened"
Title: First Sight Feel, the Strongest - Part II, "Take it that it never happened"
A few days have passed, Teht could only look into the spot where the knock happened. The spot symbolised his fondest memory of Vel. Rewinding what he has done the past 3 days, he has been to the spot at around the same time that he first met her.
Out of nowhere, a girl with long, straight hair came by. Each strand was as fine as a copper wire till the end. What's more, it was its ability to captivate the attention of Teht, like a magnet would in the theory of north-south poles attraction. When he took a second, careful look, it was Vel. In the next short moment, his eyes took up the role of a receptor in the system of reflex action. The intended action he had wanted to do was in split seconds transferred past the nerve center and became an effector - "Vel". He called out to her. Like in the last meeting, she turned in response. However, she was confused how in the world, Teht had got her name.
"Hi, I am Teht, the guy who knocked onto you accidentally." Teht opened the conversation.
With some effort placed into tracking back the happenings around or on her, Vel could not remember who he was exactly.
"Still remember me? You told me your name then," Teht said.
The unfamiliar figure of him had casted a shadow on her, a shadow of hidden agenda that made her felt uncomfortable.
"Sorry, i don't really remember you."
"If by any chance, we have met before, take it that it never happened. " Vel tried to avoid him at all costs.
The phrase "take it that it never happened" heard the fragile heart of Teht's cracked. "Oh no" was the echoes formed in his soul instantly and he was then awaken from a day-dream that he just had. What a dream to have!
Just when he thought the bad omen from his dream crumbled the love hope, he was proven wrong as he was making his way past the spot.
From the spot where he was situated, and just when the sun at its highest position struck straight, neatly at it, he saw a girl with similar features to Vel but he could not see her face as yet. Just like he had in his daze, the girl walked past him and the long hair that he scrutinised were so similar to what had happened in his daze. He then unknowingly said, "Vel".
It was Vel. It all happened at 12pm, in the noon then with strong lights reflecting off the dull grounds. Reflected and refracted lights enhanced her appearance which Teht thought was a "wing-less" angel that had arrived. But seeing her reminded of his worst nightmare - "take it that it never happened".

Weekends Spent
Title: Weekends Spent
Saturday - 30June. I went out with Ming Kuan, Yi Hao, Cheng Ning, Yong Sin, Clement and friends and Guan Zhu to watch soccer matches and the closing ceremony of the National Stadium at Kallang. I thought that it was quite interesting for the soccer match. Towards the end there was also the firework display.
Sunday - 1July. Church service filled up the entire morning. Well, it was actually an anniversary to mark the 19th year of Good News Baptist Church (GNBC). Acompanied by Michelle and Guan Zhu, i attended Ann's church service. (By the way, Ann and Michelle are older than the church itself.) Well, the venue, was first of all different. It was at NTU Alumni Club. So the atmosphere was quite relaxing, given that it was held in dim-lighted lounge filled with comfy seats. I thought i would fall asleep soon during the service as i slept only 4 hours before going.
There were games and some performance items. The first game required us to guess with some clues given, the church member. So when it was in the middle of the game, there came a hint where it said that 'she would be happy or something if you are SWEET to her'. At first, i thought it was some church members i would not have known. Instead, the answer was, 'Ann'. The reason given was that the words 'Ann' and 'ant' have similar pronunciation.
Then in the afternoon, we had some karaoke session - where it was dominated mainly by FIR songs (Ann's selections).
