before deciding whether you really love dogs
zzz in a very indignant mood now
"Because sometimes there is no easy way out.
You just have to grin and bear it.
Sometimes the only escape route is to go straight through the flames,
just brace yourself and bite your lip.
Sometimes you have to sever the ties clean off.
Because in every relationship there comes a point
when the damage is too much and no matter how good it once was,
the memories can’t sustain you."
saw this on cynthia's blog
found it so apt for how i am feeling now
rainy day, emo day
nah not really emo
just stirs some thoughts that i've been trying to push back for awhile
till i saw this paragraph that just got me thinking again
there are many types of relationships that people will go through
family ties, love, friendships, acquaintances..
i've been through all and if some good old friends rem,
i had a tough time letting go of a past love relationship
nah not going into that
cux i've let go of that (we're great friends now and i'm happy with that)
but what i realise is harder to let go than a love relationship
is a friendship
and that's what i am going to talk about
many friends come and go, and those who stay must have made an impact in your life
some good old friends remain like the way they were since i've knew them
not talking about physical appearances
but its what's inside
that has never changed
some changed, and you try to accept them for their changes
accept the new them
their changes may have brought hurt to you directly or indirectly
but you suck it in
telling yourself that being that friend
you've gotta accept
but..
when the damage is too much and no matter how good it once was,
the memories can’t sustain you.
indeed..
the memories still flash at times
but i've gotta protect myself too
maybe that's why
i've to helplessly watch this friendship go down the drain
with no remedies that i can think of
the pain of watching this friendship that was built over time
that has certainly braved through storms
go down the drain just like that
i am just reminded of how small we are
and how helpless we can be
and all we can do
is to grin and bear
bite our lips and move on
just be glad our paths crossed before
and maybe you don't know it
i have once treasured this friendship so much
against all odds
and you should too (:
never liked exams
okay fine who likes them right
but friends who know me well will know that exams are always my weakest link
i remember the times in tjc when mr fun has to walk me into the exam hall
and sit with me through my paper
constantly writing encouragements and slipping them under my feet
aww where else can u find such a nice teacher (:
Friday marks the start of my Sem3.1 final exams
have been mugging hard at Elias Macs/Whitesands Macs
coursework grades seem fine to me
not perfect but ohwell.. at least they are mostly Bs
i'm learning how to take things in my stride
sure there must still be expectations
but i refuse to stress myself out just because of them again (after Tj)
so yea.. life's been great if readers wanna know
dealing with some issues, but with the help of drkoh the great
everything will turn out fine
i'm really blessed with good people in my life
like mr fun and dr koh
awesome people (:
so while i am mugging like crazy
my two dogs get to sleep on my bed comfortably
watching them makes me envious i am serious
and who's so fortunate to be my study buddy this time?
none other than him (:
all the best to the people who are having exams
elias mall macs is recently packed with students from sec sch, jcs and polys
till then,
xoxo
an overdue prelude to my bday celebration in erm.. july
lying in my room studying for lodging
the whole day, i hear ambulance sirens passing my window
is today a gloomy day for the people out there
everytime i hear the sirens
i will wonder if there's anybody inside
will the person make it through?
morbidity... this day does feel morbid
deaths of friends' friends make me realise
its not the length of a life,
but the quality that matters
read the new paper sometime back
reporting about this ite girl who unfortunately lost her life in Tioman
all her friends described her as an angel
that's a quality life well lived
i'd rather live a short life and leave a good legacy for people to remember
than a long worthless one..
my hotmail and blogger and twitter is down
i am losing my already short term memory
i feel so tired after playing just a few games of table tennis
i feel like sleeping but i have not bathed (too lazy to)
I got an early lecture tomorrow morning
RAHHHHHHHHH I JUST FEEL LIKE WHINING MY WAY OUT!!!
it has to be belated because blogger was down still yesterday
so i can only post up pictures today!
spent quality time with darl this long weekend
i foresee its the last time (for a long time) we can go out and play like this
because its gonna be exam period for both of us real soon
:(
Day before National Day
went to shop alil at Bugis Village
it was crazily packed as usual
so i decided to stop squeezing with the crowd and do a pedicure instead
it was totally impromptu :p
(I didnt plan to do my nails!)
totally like the background of this pic-makes us both look happy (:
wanted to be patriotic and paint red but suddenly changed my mind
met up with my darling clique after that
they gave me and twin a belated birthday surprise
the birthday present was really pretty! (hand made)
but I haven got the photos yet
so will blog more abt it another time
but it was a good meet up
all 5 were present
and we had some heart to heart sharing
really treasure this bond we have (:
love ya girls!
National Day
drove over to Art's house to fetch that slowpoke couple
told them we were reaching in 1min
but they didnt come down on time
so we had to take pictures to kill time
shall just post 1 of the many (:
went to tampines to get our takeaway dinner
before heading off to Marina South to catch the fireworks( first time watching with a boyf!)
bought lucky and rascal's food from tampines as well
and me and janice were just amused by how gay our boyfs could get!
haha look at how happy they are (:
drove to marina south
there were already 10000 people waiting
but we totally didnt know if we were waiting at the right place
we just followed the crowd
luckily we managed to catch it in the end
but all four of us shared the same sentiments
the fireworks this year was just too short!
luckily i managed to catch the heart fireworks(think its the highlight??)
and me and darl managed to take one shot with the fireworks
art and janice tried waiting but the fireworks ended already
it was so boohoo-ly short
us waiting for the fireworks
didnt catch it at its best, but nevertheless, at least i caught it (:
credits to art for taking such a fabulous shot!
(still wondering why i placed my hand on his tummy!)
they tried waiting too, but the display was over :(
went to sing after fireworks cux we didnt want to go back so early
my darling cutely cant catch the beats of many songs
but its okay
i still love you! haha
couple 1

art looks like a small boy in this picture!
(janice, your boyf's legs has muscles too lah!)
and for once
after so long
we took group shots
we've been going on double dates for so long but never took a group photo before!
yay!! (:
many things are better left unsaid
many things are better left un-remembered
we cannot help you
if you don't seek help
it will be more disastrous in the end
please let us walk with you through this mess

i can accompany you to a doc that wont know your parents

i've been holding on to my phone and i wont off it to silent mode when i am sleeping

one more public speaking speech to go
(maybe going to post one more post about a blog i saw just now.just thought i had to
blog this post first cux i needed to upload pictures and blogger is kind to me now.)
till then,
goodnight!
anyway i was doing up my persuasive speech for public speaking tomorrow
topic: Abortion
basically i am against so i was researching to back my viewpoint
when i saw this video
its really lovely and the song is just so nice
sad i couldnt find the lyrics so you all gotta listen real hard!
watch the video!
its REALLY worth the watch!
to you:
it will not be a dead end
nothing is a dead end
there will always be hope as long as you reach out for help
please do not give up on yourself
i'll get help with you
i will walk through this with you
i will be there for you my dear friend
its not the end
so not only my blogger has problems
i've been reading ppl's blogs
and alot of them are complaining that they cannot upload pictures
i couldnt too for the past few days
guess today's my day (:
a few updates:
went Streams of Praise with darling on sat
i've been to this praise and worship event for about four years i think
at the same place, with different people
this time, its with darling
clement commented that going for these kinda stuff with your other half is always fulfilling
and he was right
to have darling beside me worshipping together made everything feel more right than ever
(:
its three of us on this journey, me you and Him (:
many couples like doing this, but me and ben took about 15min to get it to look alil like a heart!
went to eeling's 21st bday party after that
it started at 6 i think
but we reached at like 11pm cux of SOP
but nevertheless, we still had a great time
especially when janice and art came to join us
i always think he look gay-ishly cute taking such photos :p
that night we were mad
like cux janice and art came out so late
she insisted that she would kill me if we went home straight after the party
so we decided to go pool
couldnt get nice pictures as usual :(
i love this blouse (:
looking professional? :p
last update
POL-ITE games came to an end on friday
we got champion which is really great(:
i honestly think that everybody played a part
including the seniors who came to support
that closes the chapter of poly table tennis for me
it has taught me lessons i guess
bottle of 100plus grace gave me on the last day of the match
i promise i will never forget these symbols of the clique ever (:
my BEST friend always (:
tp girls- champs!
To Grace:
dear girl, you've really been a great friend. You are really God-sent, and i am so thankful
beyond words for a friend like you. the bottle you gave me sort of brought me back to the
before poly (aka JC) times, and snapped me back to the NOW where i am graduating soon.
the 1yr (JC) plus 3yrs (POLY) was really not an easy and smooth road for me, but it was
because i had you and the rest, that i managed to tide through and now i am finally
graduating! (: looking back at the transition between jc and poly just makes me shudder,
but it was then that i saw the true test of friendship! (: love ya girl (applies to clique too)
rest assure i will also be there for you always! thanks for being my best friend.
Love,
Sandy Loh (:
anymore...
