a star up in the sky
We went down to Fort Canning Hill to watch Midsummer Night's Dream,under the stary night sky on the grassy lawns with the cold night dew on out shoes,and the moonlight shining upon us. I brought chips,Fi brought pasta(yay!!) and Vani treated us all to drinks. I chose Tiger Beer..hahaaa kidding laah,I got myself a 2litre mineral water bottle,seriously.We went up the wrong side of the hill,and spent 20 mins walking around to fnd the darn Fort Canning Green. At a junction,we came upon 0741A,which stands beside us in morning assembly,and I was happy to see them,now at least we can find the place together. When we finally found the place,it was packed with people,already seated on mats sprawled on the grass,it was like a mass picnic.
We settled down after much bickering about a nice spot,and then out came the food.I wasn't even paying attention to the early parts of the play,as I was munching away at Fi's mom's macaroni,potato chips,biscuits and whatnot. I was just eating,and had Fi to explain the show to me.Hahaa...but then I paid attention after that.
We had an interval,and met Rusydia at the FortHouse,had a chat with Nami's boyfriend Nasz.I kinda enjoyed the second part of the play,though i admit I didn't really dig the show.I enjoyed the fact we all came together under the night sky and enjoyed an outing ala-picnic,but I wouldn't want to watch another show like that.Though I dig the theme of dreams and fairies.
And so we went off,to CityHall and separated to go home.The girls went crazy for a moment,screaming like nobody's business in the middle of the street.I didn't know them for a moment.
Fiqa: We don't belong here.I don't understand a thing.
Lassie:Fi,look! Raju.(proceed to do meditating pose) Im meditating.
Ilham:That botak looks gay.
and leave the roses on my casket,
lace them with your tears
and help me leave behind some
reasons to be missed
at CityHall

train back home
and what are dreams,if they only serve to disillusion?are they a man's unrelenting desire for many a worldly wants,or are they sincere visions for the future?

too close too far
How deep,how dark
I never felt so lost
Never knew,now Im stuck
when all the time was tossed
away so far
You never really cared
(away so far)
when my mind laid bare
(away so far)
when we were all scared
(away so far)
all you could do was stare
(into my eyes so clear)
because that's the only reason so near
you could use to erase your fears
(chorus)
And I should have known
how far this would take me
Taking your words with lies sewn
deep inside all I wanted was
to be free
with hands held high into a sky so blue
as the ocean opens up to swallow you

run forrest run
Today's our college sports meet. I was under the impression i was gonna have to just sit at the grandstand,cramped with others and sweating it out,looking at people run like the wind. But 2 hours before the reporting time,my dear house captain found me in the library and informed me that I was up for 100m boys event. I was in disbelief. Firstly,I didnt think I qualified at all during the heats.Secondly, I just had a heavy lunch. How in the world am I gonna run? But no matter,it was a task for me.I couldn't let my House Taurus down. I got myself ready after attending the Third Council Investiture(congrats to the new batch of councillors,and adieu to the Second Council,u guys did a great job) I got the first lane,and bib number one. The wind blew across as we got to the line. The heat shone upon us. The crack of the smokegun sounded off. I ran as fast as I could. I got the first lane,and bib number one. I got the last position in the race. But I did my best. I just felt darn useless after that. Sigh. I drank 10 cups of Milo after that to drown my sorrow. Haha...
Taurus came out as Champion House for the Sports Day! Taurus Rulez!
i did the best i could
but sometimes the best wasn't enough
