Shine We Are

After the Japanese Culture Performance Nite, the dance troupe established for that nite decides to go on. We are now call *Spark*. Previously *Spark* members are people from different talent backgrounds grouped together under a common purpose-dance.
I myself have 3 years of stage dancing with a high-school dance school coaching experience.While others represented gymnastics at at national levels, national cheerleading squad (male) and even people that just have the vibe for dancing.
The name *Spark* comes from BoA-Spark. Most of *Spark* members can dance any number of BoA dances.
*Spark* focuses on J-Pop and korean hip-hop dances.



The upcoming event for *Spark* is to participate in MMU Talentime. To the finals *Spark*!
On a personal conquest , im perfecting my dance steps in BoA's-Shine We Are and Spark.
Oh not forgetting i have to perform for CK during CNY. Now im just thinking on which dance to perform.

Love, Lies, and Gnomes

Its Tuesday. A long waited day. As my mind suspended with hazy thoughts as of early this morning. The day seem to brighten up as it went along.
Went for a sponsorship and marketing "spree" to hunt down sponsors for the up coming Grab! issue by neXus.Well its about publishing advertisments or exposure article for the companies.
Guess what? I was the only one that got the cash flowing in today. Great accomplishment!
Evening came fluttering by before i could get a decent 40 winks.

The long anticipated Christian Fellowship gathering.
Turned out more than i expected. It was really a mesmerising experience for me that evening.
I finally found my Spiritual Home.God bless.
We did 4 CG( Care Group) performances:
Singing, games, and a story presentation( FOS-Fruit of Spirit), and the hilarious puppet show!
Thank you all for making that night a memorable one.Special thanks to Samuel Yau, Justin Lee and Joash Yap.

It stil lingers within me-the laughter and tears of joy.

Withered Ethereal

Days passed without reply.
And it finally came :

"hey hey......i have soooo many things to
do these past few days!!!! (have two tests
and an asgnt to pass up next week!!!)
maybe we can hang around sometime
after CNY....Ja!! "

Gazing up into the heavenly spheres i wonder does fate sends us signs? Just the other day, i was intently looking at a airplane making a cross-sectional axis with the Orion's Belt.merely intersecting.
Just a little insight of the Orion's Belt:
One of the most obvious features people see in the Orion(Hunter) is the three stars that make up what most people consider as the belt of the giant.
Mintaka, the western-most star in the belt,comes from the Arabic word for belt.
Alnilam, the center star in the belt, means, "a string of pearls".
Alnitak, the eastern-most star, means the girdle

Well it's back to the drawing board. *splinter darts through*

Why finding tryst?

Well the name speaks for itself.
Tryst (trst)
An agreement, as between lovers, to meet at a certain time and place.

Finding my purpose to my existence and reason to be.
Seeking my anima.

  1. The inner self of an individual; the soul.
  2. In Jungian psychology:
    1. The unconscious or true inner self of an individual, as opposed to the persona, or outer aspect of the personality.
    2. The feminine inner personality, as present in the unconscious of the male. It is in contrast to the animus, which represents masculine characteristics.
Are you out there? *shrugs*

table no. 58

i awoke to the blissful morning, the only thing amist was feeling healthy for the day. -Food poisoning- . Long story short: It's pain saking.

I recall vaguely of the day's passing events.
Missed a photo taking session with Fiona's friend Stephanie at the japanese exhibition.Sometimes you felt that between two individuals there's this lil' intersection of fate. Just a slight swept and it passes us by.To be exact thats what i felt while looking at the outline of the sun through the sills of my fingers of my right hand.The outer contour of glare transpire into reddish orange upon my hand.
It was high noon when i realised it-it was too late.

*****

Well on the bright side i got showers of compliments from Ms. Noor Watee. Stating the obviously, i felt good. Buts it's like a sedative drug of momentarily tranquilizing effects, a temporary soothe.
While caught myself in an abstracted musing; a daydream of a well seized time that would change the tides of time: where as table no. 58 would be easily in my grasp for Impressions.
A table for 4. In the midst of well-lit chandeliers, the sensation of perceiving light of dancing illuminations with music rhythmically playing in the background, eyes
of my date-eyes that danced with merriment.

Slowly i rouse. It was meant to be- table no. 58 was sold out. me, Renee, CM and maY was bound to settle for table no. 71
*sigh*
it becomes clear like purified water forming a sediment.

*****

I guess my day was a series of ups and downs. Met someone new! *drum rolls* It is none other than : Siti ,i must say she's friendly and full of initiatives. Initially didn't turned out as expected. I guess i had something stuck in my throat...No no... its the sickness. That explains all of it.
Got back home, puked.
Agonising few hours of torment, fed myself despite the weakening presence bestowing me. Walked in the chilled wind with drizzles buying food.
To be showered by rain gently in fine, mistlike drops. The air perfumed like where it takes me back moments to the time in Taiping. Moisten with fine drops: I endured.

Being the quote fetish i am, i remembered a quote in contemptuous
defiance of the fact that i had spilt cold porridge over my bed and shirt.
"Each day is a mountain that must be climbed; with courage each step
gets easier."

As the day ends:
Darkness settled over the fields. Dust settled in the roads.Another day it is.
Sleep overtakes me.

Quater-life Crisis

A previous reflection of mine

The Quater-life Crisis :

They call it the" Quarter-life Crisis." It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like.

You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now. You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't really cold,catty,mean or sincere, but that they are as confused as you.

You look at your studies/career/job and it is not even close to what you thought you would be doing. One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure.
You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and
further away, and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you. Or you layin bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone
decent enough that you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love someone but love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because
you know that you aren't a bad person. One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap. Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision.

You worry about money, the world, the future and making a life for yourself and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!

What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out.
sigh...

YOU ARE NOT ALONE....

renjinn° ® Theory

"Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, it is the realization of how much you already have."

When the door of happiness closes, another opens,but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past,you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

The Advent

This is where it begins. An avenue for me to vent and rant.An expression of self. Given much thought in the past, i decided to give blogging a try.
After two large scale events, with a great sense of accomplishment, i'm all geared up to take up anything that comes my way.
