teachers day 08

well, today's teachers' was quite nice.
spent to the fullest, pretty much.

In the morning, we had the teachers' day celebrations,
which went pretty ok, with liu bi quan joking around again haha.
he is SOOOO lame.
but it works =]
hahas.

however, the thing is, the celebrations ended at 9:15.
and i planned to meet my friends at 11:30.
the result, playing DJmax on my friend's psp for 45mins.
and playing tennis for like, half an hour.
rest of the time, stoning.
i reached my primary school at about 11:10
stayed in the void deck reading my storybook.
i saw kaiyang soon after,
and then met with asmidah.
we chatted for 10mins and then were granted access into the canteen.

hahas.
only managed to see a few teachers.
in order of time:
Mrs Emily Tan
Mr. Ha
Mr. Ching
Mrs Yee
Mrs Wong Chu Lat
Mrs Lim Khar Li

that was about it.
then the 6 of us left to AMK hub:
me, denise, asmidah, sikai, tinnapop, justin.
we then met up with cheryl in amkhub.

hahas.
thenn we went to KFC nearby to eat!
hahas.
i had zinger student's meal + cheese fries.
Derartig Lecker [awesomely delicious]

den i went for this 3rd lang briefing yada yada.

haha.
then i came home for dinner.

then went out for a mini games day.
amk and serangoon rfg's. haha
play badminton very funn.
=]

anyways.
so now i'm at home blogging.
that's about it for today.

another page in the life of Lukasssss. =]
to be remembered.

just a song dedicated to all my primary school frens whom i so love <3

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

As we go on

We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever


yes, friends forever. <3

invest'08

well, it's been a long time since i posted.
and here goes..

Today, another chapter of the book of my life was closed.

Today, we (The BAND) had our Annual Investiture.
well, it was quite ok, and i was the emcee, along with jerald..
well... it felt quite funny, with the inevitable nostalgia...


To my sec 4 batch, i do love you oh so much.
thank you so much for all the times we have spent together,
and also for times yet to be spent..
i hope that all of us will be able to progress on to RJC as batchmates, and bandmates.
may the friendships we fostered last a lifetime,
indeed, Friends Forever. Batchmates Forever. Bandsmen. Forever.

To the band, thank you for all the joys and the sorrows we share together as a band.
thank you for everything you have done for me,
and i believe, i have gained more than you can imagine.
It has been great these four years of my life,
and i'm glad i chose this CCA..
Indeed, as Kirk said,
i believe too, that Band is T.H.E most bonding CCA in RI.
and believe me, i'm proud of it. and so should all of you.
As the next generation, i wish you enough.
enough sorrows to appreciate joy,
enough pain to appreciate elation,
enough difficulties to appreciate success.
This is my wish to you all,
i wish you all the best.
make us proud.

To Mr Oura, who will never read this,
thank you so much for your guidance and support.
though this phrase is very much cliched,
i still think it is so very accurate to phrase my gratitude towards your patience.
your patience with us, your patience with our standards, and you patience to improve us, to nurture us to be better musicians.
without you, i can say, that we definitely could not be where we are,
and i hope that you would continue to strive for the band which you so love.
i hope, that you would continue to receive the respect of the Band,
as well as their attention, and fullest effort..

Yes, as one chapter concludes, yet another begins.
to my batchmates, this is it, as far as our job in RIMB is concerned.
we've had many good memories, many, i repeat MANY hours spent together.
and i believe, it was not all wasted.
wadeva we have done, whether good or bad, at the end of it all,
is kept in our fondest memories, in my fondest memories.

indeed, i thank you all.
thank you for being the band which all so love.



as we then progress to the RJCSB, let us have many more happy memories and times!
not to mention hours xD
but that's beside the point. we know it'll all be worth it.
so,
for the rest of the year, JIAYOU!

let's do ourselves a favour by chionging EOYs!!! =]

all the best,
Student Conductor of the Raffles Institution Military Band,
Lucas.

And when the sky was starless in the void of the night
He spoke into the darkness and created the light
Judgment and wrath he poured out on to Sodom
Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that
our God is an awesome God.


What has your attitude towards God been like?
One of my wishes used to be that i wasn't born into a Christian family.
Won't it be, that one's first love would burn brighter, stronger?
i used to feel this way.
Cause familiarity had been a problem, and still is a problem.
our God is an awesome God, really.
but i don't seem to feel that.
yes, i say it. but some sort of numbness have evolved, much.
something has to be done.
i don't wanna drift.
i wan't the desire, the hunger and thirst for the Word of God.
Do i impose the desire?
What has this numbness done?
I hope i can push myself on.
i have to.

pray for me =]


anywayee.
hais.
i think i've drifted from some of my friends.
friends whom i'd used to talk to oh so often, to confide in.
as times pass. people lose touch.
get new friends.
i'm not innocent and i know it.
friends i once considered oh so close have drifted.
fault's on my part, probably.
oh well.
things change people change.
steadfastness?
frivolity?
who really cares nowadays..
i want to,
but i'm but a man.

who am i?

Who Am I?

Who am I? Who are you?
Are you who you are?
Or are you who you are not?
Time and again we strive to please,
strive to move in, to merge with the crowd.
Time and again we put on a mask,
put on a new self, telling ourselves
who we are, or are not.
Confused, torn, schizophrenic, to some extent.
who are we really?
which mask is a mask, and which is not?
where is the real you?
where is the real me?

who am i?
Is it wrong, is it hypocritical, to make a mask who u are?
Is it going against nature?
i believe so.
The human nature presses, pushes, urges one on,
but to what end? To what consequence?
Why can't the mask replace who we are?
Isn't that the application of the only constant?
CHANGE.
this mask of ours, of mine, is it who i am?
does it define my character, my personality, ME?

think on it.
who are you?
do you really know?
can you really say with all honesty?

it's been ages

arh. it's been ages since i posted!
haha.
thanks althea for posting =]
hahas.



well....
today. i went to church =]
actlly, before that, my family went out for a quick breakfast in ang mo kio =]
we all had 2 eggs and toast!
coupled with coffee/ice milo for me =]
haha. i can't stand bitter stuffs.
milk chocolate's been the right way for me =]
hahhas. side track side track.
anyway. afte that i went for morning worship and all.
hah.a after that i went to the beancurd stall and bought a tuna filluette!
then rushed back to church to arrange the chairs!
my class duty today!
not meaning to show off, but i did half the arranging =]
hahahs.
the rest with marvin's and jon's help!
thanks! the other class on duty didn't come thought ^ahem^

after that, mr bros and I (with my bro's girlfrieend) went to watch dark knight!
it was quite an awesome show ^^
hahaha. though i must admit i expected a bit more, maybe after hearing so much about it being so very awesome.
here's the proof i went anyways:
DarkKnightTicket

afte that, came home, then went for gospel meeting.
that about concludes my day.
except that now i'm supposed to be doing my maths assignment,which was to be handed in yesterday, which everyone so conveniently forgot.
oh well.
hais.

i'm getting worried about my Oral Defense coming in week8, friday.
this week's week7, for those who don't keep count.
i've been getting random inspirations about my speech.
i'll just see how it goes.
my one chance to impress! hope i do it well.

hais.
i've been pondering on some stuffs.
i hate going for morning assembly.
it's really pointless, as far as i'm concerned.
as in like, wake up half an hour earlier to listen to some announcement that don't have anything to do with me, and even if they are, why that time of the day?
just a posting on the internet would be much more convenient.
as for prize presentations, oh well, nothing much i can say about that.
i mean, i no longer want to rush to school, i would prefer to take my time and stroll down to school.
now that i live a 15-min-walk away. always end up pretty sweaty before i even enter school though.

i need to read more too, both books and the bible.
i wish i hungered more. computer games are probably getting in the way.
but i plan to stop soon, and i hope i do.
lol. after i rebirth a few more times on maplestory private server lol.
anyways.
that's the end of a really long and boring post.






cheers,
LuCas.
