End of the scarlet festival (11 Feb)
considered my last day celebrating CNY. in the afternoon, brought my bro to grace's shop in holiday plaza to get an extra pair of specs for his "no-return" trip to melbourne. It was nice looking at all the potential eye wear that i could have donned. Picky picky.. and in the end my bro got a neat modern one.
waiting at the lull scribbling of another optometrist on the payment receipt, Grace tapped me, "wait here..", went off, fading behind, trailing off the outer crowd noise.
I sensed a surprise awaiting, and was beautifully rewarded with two pieces of cake.
"happy Birthday!" =)
Thanks to her, I remembered how nice a birthday could be.
was actually mad at my bro for being late and i have to wait for him all afternoon, and i thanked God for teaching me to be more patient and forgiving.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
So i drove bro home, sent my sister to the custom. Anxious at what I barely miss, heading to this impromptu destination - my primary school teacher's house.
There goes, lazily parking the car while thinking about how is everybody, the 7 classmates that are there, getting down the car and try to recall the little names to match the matured faces.
Took off my shoes and slightly sticky socks, tugged them awkwardly into my shoe, and in walk myself to the present and past, into my teacher's humble house.
Smiles all over the conversations, stories of how we are doing now, comments about the present education system, enjoying my P5 BM teacher's big laughters.. Talking about our memorable past, discussing about our exact sitting position in class when we were 12 years old, feeling nostalgic and wondering why time flies by so cruelly in between the 11 years.
I am in a different world with them, our worlds collide once again.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Said reluctant byes to them and dragged my feet to Yan's house for an informal CNY gathering and dinner. Tuned myself back to the world I am in, enjoying every single bit of small chat and huge laughs.
The beefs and mashed potatoes in my stomach screamed in ecstasy, such delightful food!
Pretty dog, wonderful people, heavenly food, and a great time that ended in singing of birthday songs and prayer for the February babies. After which some TnT dudes can't wait to get back to their "Risk" board game, bonding in their virtual wars.
I managed to gather Wen Mynn & Carol to watch CJ-7 at leisure mall, but sadly have to resort to KungFu Dunk because of the movie schedule. An enjoyable time anyway, though i frown upon the weak scene-changing and flaky characters.
My taste changed, i noticed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drove back to Yan's place at midnight, not forgetting the promise to come back and 'da pau' food. The remaining ppl are just about to leave. Took 2 packs of mee siam handled to me, byes, and went home.
Received a silent sms from Wen Mynn to miss call her when I reached home safely. Replied her, thanked her for her concern.
Don't understand why little cares could mean the world. Think of boon fei's request to treat me a birthday dinner, pei2's book, think of my parent's love for me, thought of myself...
-----------------------------------------------------------
Listening to this mandarin slow acoustic song that my pri sch mate sent me, conclude that i have written this nice blog entry that's brewing like slow coffee, thinking that it would be nice if read slowly. listened to the whole Amanda Falk album, listened to the nicest 1st version of 'Eternal Life' of TEENz upcoming album...
Surrender to my eyelids,
expanding my vision into dreams,
and just sleep,..
waiting to live.

Death, and CNY
Today is the 5th day of CNY. nice times.
First two day went to grandma's place in Kluang, long long traffic jam at the plus highway, get off at kulai after 2 hours and go along the old road. More fun n chatting compared to last year, went climbing Gunung Lambak with cousins at late afternoon.
heh heh.. didn't know that it is really climbing the mountain, with ropes, sometimes no rope, really steep. too bd it is already 6.30pm at 75% of the mountain, then have to climb down. next day climb again and reached the peak. really cool air @ 510m.
on wednesday went touring with TnT. it was really a fun trip, going 'round... at night went to a TnT member sister's bro funeral. sad.. only at 21 years old.
going there n coming back, i kept thinking abt how is it like dying at a young age. i asked ah tat if there is a choice, would he want to die young or die old. he said it's up to God, when we've completed what we're supposed to do on earth. i asked him again & again, he kept saying that, won't tell me whether it's young or old. avoiding my question, lol.
lots of thoughts went on in my head, but i'm lazy to write it.
it's good to think about death sometimes, because it makes me think about life, and what to do about it.
I would want a big mansion with cool stuffs inside when i leave my body, it lasts for...ever. heh

Drum aspirations for CNY
just received the concert's raw recording mp3, heh heh. some parts are hilarious.. =P
few self- evaluations n changes need to be made.. the tough part of drums in recording is the physical isolation and heightened sensitivity to music, creative thinking, ppl ard, congregation, worship leader n musicians which makes playing very tiring mentally... and sad part is i don't get to be the audience.
Billy Ward, my fav drummer, besides Steve Gadd. actually 99% of my playing are copied from other great drummers, mix & match. heh
CNY coming, food.. food.... and there goes my age of 22 too.. happy Bday to me soon.
no longer 22 by next week..
will be super glad if i sounded better than him, it would be a good present.
Ladies & gentleman, Billy Ward.

Penny
this pretty girl who likes her songs, has same tastes in music as me, went to the same kindergarten & primary school, same class for 4 years, us being teased by classmates for 4 years; then came sec sch, she went to a girl's sch, n i went to a boys sch.
see each other during inter-sch competition, muttered 2 sentences.
graduate.
shares the same birth date, and serendipity-ly keep in contact once or twice a year. when we meet now, talked non-stop for hours. she asked about me, my neighbours (who r classmates too), music and drumming; i asked abt her composing, classmates, n who's the next one getting married.
how weird.

the other approach
it is getting to the end of January, yay. Busy month ending soon.. Because of classes, i am yet to attend TEENz service for this year, and feeling out of touch with going-ons in english service & TnT.
sis told me about the ITC day during teenz, the hilarious part where ah-tat published some of my old photos of "self-posing faces". ah, the happy days when ITC always have its meetings in s'pore. the most gel-able n fun comittee, heh.
oh, 2008, when i am 23, an age i never could imagine achievable but here am i, waiting for maturity to kick in, either gracefully or a painful butt in the boinky stomach. recently i have been so task-oriented its unbelievable, i hope to tweak this blind to see the real people parading in all its glory.
words flow, time flies.
sigh.
i felt that my drumming for the teenz album's chinese songs are too rigid, so when mom switched on the radio featuring chinese DJs puking lurvy-dovy words n playing sappy songs, i am inspired - by the creative drumming on dull songs, and da beauty of chinese words. lots of improvement n writing to be made to play better..
last sunday was my last drum lesson, a 9-week break, will continue after the live recording. said a short bye to my students n gave them assignments that weigh a ton [dracula laugh].
study-wise, it's nice, student to lecturer ratio is much better, less students = more personalised lectures, especially from Brit lecturers, though s'porean lecturers still sounded too professional n business-like. there's a new m'sian lecturer that has a really funny accent, and has a face that makes you wanna punch him, ha, lightens up my day anytime.
yay-ness! i am able to attend TEENz the coming sat, but sadly as an 'old person'. The good thing is I get to enjoy some 'senior citizen' privileges in TEENz:
1. able to come late n leave early without raising any eyebrows
2. order the musicians around
3. able to give foolish comments blatantly & confidently
4. when sitting with a much younger teen and looked serious, will make that teen look like a bad person, haha.
ha, ok, if you're feeling under-priviledged now then it means you are still in TEENz; if feeling questionable, then it means you don't know it's a cold joke.
brr, cold...
sigh, it's only January and i felt lifeless..

Please
saturday: till 5pm class, rush back to JB church 7pm, prac bil till 9.30pm, ITC meeting till 12am, now 1.20am. tomorrow 6am need to wake up for both services, after service album prac till 2.30pm, then teach drums 3.30-10pm.
january's fridays n weekends are really fully packed. argh.. i'm in such a fine mood of loathing abt tiredness..
ok God, you win.. I need you.. just hanging around listening to this song.. listening, singing... then i'll go sleep.. How i miss being a child with you.
i remember when i was 5 or 6 years old at this children's camp in Kota Tinggi, when i closed my eyes and be totally soaked in the presence of God, the innocent pure soul with God, and i forgot about time passing by, i forgot about lunch time until somebody reminds me..
that's where i wanna be.
fill my heart with you
something that will satisfy
back to the basics
back to love
back to you
only, and only you
nothing else will do..

Guy marries
Guy Sebastian proposed to his long-time girlfriend, Jules Egan, getting married soon.. looks like a sweet gal =)
About a boy
i just read someone's secret blog and some of the things the blogger lamented made me think about the life that i had, and i wonder why i am quite okay and happy in my circumstance.
i'm in college now and i gotha make this entry in 5mins.
i have been alone most of my life in 2007, college no friends cos everybody got click already, i ate most of my meals alone, study alone, and when i fail in certain papers, the ppl in my class already moved on.
my sister once said that a normal person will be quite sad to live my life, and some of her dependent friends might go crazy. lol. mom once said that dunno why throughout my whole study life there's no church ppl same school as me; and every school that i went to, i have to make new friends all over again.
and there's minimal outside help in my studies, have to be independent.
i rarely receive phone calls or sms concerning my welfare, most of the time it is reminders to go for meetings, practices, to replace other drummer, looking for transport, doing things for other ppl.
i guess God is molding me for something difficult in the future, i fear..
but I'm happy for the life i have now, and i am a happier person every year. =) i think =P

Gila sunday
today is a gila tiring day..
slept at 1am the previous night, cos watched dvd & talked to sis, and next day woke up at 7am to record the teenz album "raw material" mp3 into my player n go church to serve in drums.
after de service go buy lunch and on the way almost got knocked over by this car, i was riding bike btw. the driver turned at the junction and turned into my lane pulak, stupid, wanna kill me is it, another 2 feet and i might see me life flashing before my eyes. no horn, no nothing, drive on - life of motorists in JB, ppl who don't ride bike won't understand.
prac album, go teach drums. sigh, can't go teenz wmm appreciation dinner two weeks later cos got extra class in s'pore. can't go tnt service, gotha teach drums, a tiring job which i enjoy.
today - siao, cos from 7am to 10pm now is no-rest pit stop, 15 hours makes my brain wanna burst and die (sleep). and riding bike is so fun but so tiring, rain somemore.
today's drum lesson: this cute girl told me she's tired too (when i apologised that i might be more tired than usual), cos she wakes up at 9am, lol.. in my mind: what is freaking 9am man, sleep so late. But i admire children, all the "sweet-&-everything-nice".
Then i got home, and mom saved some leftovers for me.
hee, so nice, got vegetables & steamed egg.
haha, nice....
so now kinda happy & i wanna sleep.
wish that one day i could play drums al fresco on a windy sunset..
*hey, that looks like adult Jesmond, ha

Vincent van Gogh
Watched a documentary about him, a dutch post-impressionist artist. son of a pastor, early years as apprentice of art dealer, teacher & missionary. Nice, very interesting life, fantastic paintings, but sad ending..
it would be nice to be like him, minus the illness & suicide..

| Starry, starry night. Paint your palette blue and grey, Look out on a summer's day, With eyes that know the darkness in my soul. Shadows on the hills, Sketch the trees and the daffodils, Catch the breeze and the winter chills, In colors on the snowy linen land. Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me, |
For they could not love you,

The Christmas of 2007
There are so many things and i'll try to recall them chronologically. lately getting lazy to put thoughts into organised words. so here goes flying thoughts.
Before Christmas day
Was caught up in some practices for the tebrau jusco performance with my dear bro and other 2 musicians from bilingual service, just played for the one at permas jusco and felt pumped up for another christian one in public.
it's nice to be involved in tough drumming during the final night rally. seeing them all, especially dancers sweating practices for months for 3 nights for God, the strong bond between them, it was special, something i haven't seen in a while, and missed.
after tebrau jusco, ke lun (the dance director) asked me to play solo of Mighty To Save to help build "omph" for the dancers, that was 2 days before and i was nervous cos i need to be professional enough - to be able to do it perfectly without any prior practice. I couldn't spoil the dancers' 3 months of effort. listened and wrote scores for it.
the week was all food, almost every dinner. it was very fulfilling - my stomach was happy but with a tear - too much doesn't equal too good.
fellowship is fantastic, though i can't remember.. oh.. this is bad.
I watched this 2007 movie called "The Ultimate Gift".
and i find myself watching the BEST movie of my life.
this is the soundtrack:
The last night rally is good, too bad not many ppl came to Christ, but i believed that it sowed good seeds. I am glad that i played well, i see the dancers so happy and clapping and shouting "praise the Lord" after it ends. Should have look to God more during the drum solos..
I'm glad that i am blurring the line that i serve in english service or bilingual.
Christmas day.
well, after receiving sara's thank-you email, i'm glad that i involved another 2 drummers to play in the eng service rally. thomas is going off very soon, and he deserves a whack at the drums during christmas, hee. well, i have this feeling that i won't be in eng ser for too long, even without this feeling, it's always good to train new blood. the prospect of english service new drummers is a silent tsunami. A future problem that needs to be addressed yesterday. and i always felt i didn't do enough, though nobody's saying or asking me to do anything.
Rally is fantastic.
i think it's the most ppl coming back to Christ, ever, in english service history.
i witness God's amazing grace, that is not by power, but by God's super spirit. yay-ness =)
pastry is sedap, sara's candy is nice - kept me awake during sermon, cos i was so tired. i'm happy about the few small n nice gifts that i received, cookies, little jar, chocolate and the "monkey" pen, and some sms-es.
"hey, the invisible man got gifts!"
the tnt barbeque night is unforgettable. i won't forget the times listening to people, seeing smiles, laughters, with christmas songs playing and me munching on turkey & lamb with so many 'ang-moh' sauces. God brought me unexpected friends in such a short time.
my only regret is not spending time alone with God to celebrate his birthday.
oh ya, also spent time talking to Ke Tyng, her testimony, and about God's move that is going to change the church on 2008. heh, as i'm typing this it looks so spiritual.. haha. wassup...
After christmas
movies, c-s, zoo with cell group. lots of fun with less sleep, woo hoo!
more food coming..
I am happy, that everyday is a gift.

pre-rumble to Christmas
Seems that there are so many things to do & enjoy while christmas is coming to town. I really enjoyed the CSI game. Seeing the commitment of those ppl, like grace, anne, jeff, boon&ann, ke tyng, ken, raymond.. Their silent effort inspired me to do more for the sake of the gospel.
Chin Lee from my tnt cell really amazed me by bringing 4 friends to the game. I can see how everybody contribute their little or much to the whole event, it wonderful to witness the great Architect putting together little lives that compounded impact on the lives around them.
=)
while reading is educational & considered fun, typing is a donkey-chore, i would like to order a machine that types thoughts and vision fast, if God sells them. The holocaust is so much bigger than i thought, one of the most documented piece of history in the world. Some people spent half their lifetime researching & documenting. there are more than 10 Holocaust museums in the whole world..
i find that my writing is really bad in comparison with the writers and decided to copy the parts that i find informative and heart-warming, or heart-wrenching.
next, coming up, is tonight's ITC ex-SPM students' gathering. Tomorrow is ITC teachers' appreciation, followed (the day after) by Cell Group's christmas dinner n celebration of hope.
Hear ye,
carols of stomachs. =)

project@life
just finished watching the 3+hour long movie: Schindler's List, visited the bugis reference library and read some books on the holocaust, some really horrific details left me sleepless, slept late n woke up at 3am, sigh, but it's a good challenge & life-changing.. my first self-initiated project and it's so difficult (than expected) to put it into words...
i'm so excited abt christmas, hope that everything will wrap up nicely.. =)
tomorrow's (sat) going to be a busy day.
morning go help repair roof at kulai, then 1pm prac for teenz, 6pm prac for xmas@tebrau jusco, 7pm prac for night service, 10pm prac for jusco permas.
quite fun, a good break from studying. but then, january is too soon.
next week gotha spend some time reading, thinking & writing abt the project, trying to finish everything b4 christmas.
hey, seems that, I'm old.
heh.
gosh, time flies.
