This moment of frus.wo.cite. milkshakes

(Divya read this and felt the first 3 paragraphs gave people the impression I was suffering from depression. I don't quite understand why my thought process is alluded to depressed thoughts.

Well, I'm not. hahaha. Enjoy this.. i quite enjoyed writing this.)

Written on 29th September, in H1 Mathematics class.
An accumulative thought process to escape the boredom of numbers and graphs:

You know those times when you are in a moment, a situation, and you know that in a while, it will all be over. Then, you would enjoy that period of ultimate bliss and enjoyment.

It is like taking a walk home, and you dread the journey... You know the comfort you will get to enjoy once you are home. You know how it feels like to be at the destination, so you simply want to achieve it.

Yet, at the present moment, right now, the journey is the obstacle, and quite literally, the journey itselfor you to achieve that aim. Therefore, at this moment, it becomes an irritant to you, because this moment is what stops you from achieving your aim.

Therefore, this moment before my A levels, this 2 months rather, is this accumulation of frustration, worrying and yet, excitement. Hence, I present to you the Frus.Wo.Cite. milkshake.

This is strangely ironical given my latest liquid consumption comes in the form of milkshakes, except they are just banana milkshakes, no sugar added, just a simple blend of one banana and one cup of milk. Capable mixture by any age above 4, as long as one has a blender.

This formation of this drink is often a convenient measure, given HL milk and bananas are of constant supply in my home.

I guess, when life gives you bananas and milk, make a banana milkshake.

We deal with it, because we have to, there is no other alternative. The moment is to be endured therefore, whether the individual desires or not. So I conclude, that life is as such, a dealing with the moment, the drink of the frus.wo.cite. milkshake, because at the end...

Just perhaps, we may find the reward most... er. rewarding. haha. :)

communism all worked out

It must be like my 6th time watching Bee Moviehttp://costumzee.com/view/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/bee_movie.png

Its not that its an extremely outstanding movie. The plot is average and the bee does not even encompass the cute factor. I guess I enjoy this movie because of the perfect communist picture it painted. (karl marx would have so given this movie 2thumbs up!)

Its perhaps unfortunate that the concept of Communism has always had this negative connotation attached to it. China, Russia (USSR) or North Korea. So far, these countries have had one thing in common, making striking impressions in the media and in history. (e.g. the unprecedented nuclear 'testing'). This movie, was a whole new league on its own!

Its really funny how the whole utopia thing actually works out. My favourite scene was when the bees graduated (they graduate like thousands of bees every 15mins btw) and are sent straight to orientation around the Hornex (the honey factory).

So they are in this tram-like thing that floats on honey (imagine night safari) and they are given a tour around Hornex. The tour guide, I tell you, is hilarious.

She says stuff like: 'We know that as a bee, you have worked your whole life to the point where you will want to work for your whole life!' or

when the protaganist asks, 'So you will just work us to death?'
she answers, 'We'll sure try!' in this super enthusiastic tone with a wink, which sends the whole group clapping and cheering.

And. they can only pick one job that will last them for the rest of their lives. And guess what? Aren't they pleased! cos' like this, they won't have to make so many decisions!

Its really funny when you think about how this might just apply to our real lives if Karl Marx had his way with the world. Everyone doing our own little thing, I dunno, sewing Mao type of suits in only one colour. Haha. Imagine our work place if we produce, I dunno. Soya Bean milk:

And we have a person crushing soya beans, another mixing and stirring crushed soya beans, another adding milk, I dunno. And they tell us stuff like, 'Aren't we the most perfectly functioning society on the planet?' haha. cos we can churn out soya bean milk by the loads.

Well, i thought I'd pen this down since I have already watched this show 6x. Must give it some credit. haha.

beautiful christian sister

I thought this was pretty neat. I once said that there was much misconception about christianity in a previous post. This paints a clearer picture.. and serves as a encouragement. Be blessed.

BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER by Maya Angelou
'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ that
a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean livin,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!
Pretty is as Pretty does... but beautiful is just plain beautiful!

word analysis

ok. so this is another weird post. but heck. ill add more as I find more. So these are words that I just generally like, for some funny reason or another. Its kinda weird the fact, that what i truly wanna say is being eclipsed, like a weird disease.


cherry pie.

i love the way it is spelled. It looks like something that is so pretty. Something really cute. Well, a cherry always looked nice but never tasted nice. I know i wouldn't like a cherry pie. But i like the spelling all the same. haha.


Serendipity

Another of my favourite words. nope. i dun like saying it. Neither do I like spelling it. I think its weird. But i like looking at this word. The first half of the word- serend, is like serene... as in peaceful. It looks peaceful and calm. But the second half- ipity, is so... jumpy, so staccatoish (if there is such a word) so funny. kay, weird i know, but whatever.


Hello

ah, the word we use pretty often dun we??? yeah, i dun really like saying it. It usually isn't honest, since i dun quite know what it really means except its just a greeting. But i like writing it.

Its easy, just loop de loop, and the word comes out. Write it often enough, my doodling ends up with 'hello hello hello, theres a place called vertigo!'


BLOOPERS!

haha... i always laugh when i see this. Its so funny! Its like the word- Foxy mama! It completely makes no sense whatsoever, but its just cool to say it. BLOOPERS! hahahahaha... watt the..


Myth

okay, dun really like this word. but its cos this word dosen't have a vowel yeah? its good for hangman. haha.



ah... my secondary school peeps. I told ya prom was just a waste of time. Nothing changed.

christmas is a time to love

that contains that lyrics.
It goes something like:

christmas is a time,
christmas is a time to love.... (x2)

anyway.
Couldn't find it on google.
How irritating.
Its such a nice song.

The Present

The Present
There will come a time when you will
welcome a past self with open arms,
through the memories you have
so carefully collected,
as you have done many times before.
You will see yourself as you
were when you read this,
and you will embrace the fact that
this was part of your life,
irreplaceable by a vacuum.

And you shall rejoice in the knowledge
that this has been deep waters you have crossed.
You will relive the events of your life
like pages in a book,
and you will recognise graduation as an epilogue.
BEcause the summation of cherished
memories eclipes the
monotonous routine and troubles
you find being thrown at you,
and because this is how an epilogue should be,
si as to greet new prologues.

Between that which runs from before,
to what stretches out eternally,
there is the present and there is now.
The present is where and when we live
and the present is all time can offer
to us when we require
strength, wisdom and inspiration.
Embrace ethe present in whatever
years you have to come.
~ Ernest Chen
