CF CAMP!! day 1

Yo guys.

In case you may be wondering why I've not updated for quite sometime, it's because I was off in PD for CF camp.

It's really great taking 4 days off from your holidays to go for a camps like this. Where you can take a break from the world, after hearing all the bad news that only newspaper can bring, to hear from God.

The topic was about building up your brother, hence the theme "Lego me Brother". It was really a painful camp as it were. Words spoken pierced my heart, it really convicted me of the things I've done and things that I've not done right. But it's another thing moving from conviction to actually living it out.

Life is a journey they say, well I hope that whatever I learn from camp, would be used along that journey of mine.

The Cruelty of Sports

Celebrating his victory with the absence of his nemesis, Nadal

It was a stunning showdown between Roger Federer of Switzerland and Andy Roddick of US. Gosh. The final set, they played till 16-14. That's like playing a badminton match till like 30-28. Just for comparison, albeit not a very good one.

If you all have read the news by now, you'll probably know that FeDex won it after 4 hours and 16 minutes. That's a very long time to be running around the court under the sun. I can't even pay attention in class for 1 solid hours and these two people are running around with full of energy though after 4 hours. My deepest respect for them.

But all credits to Andy Roddick for putting up such a tough fight, I mean, he really deserve to win. He gave it his best, and yet in sports only one person could win. FeDex won the points when he needed to and Andy lost points when he really needed them. Guess sports isn't just about being prepared and good, it's about doing the right thing at the right time. Getting the points when you need them.

Dejected Andy Roddick

You can really feel his pain deep inside, but that's sports. May the best man win.

But I believe it's not always about winning. Though Andy lost, I'm sure he can walk away with his head held high; knowing he gave his best.

And to Roger Federer, the greastest of them all, with 15 Grand Slam titles. Congratulations.

Demise of Michael Jackson


One of the greatest legend of our times have just passed away a few days back.

Medias, fans, blogs and what not; have been showering all kind of praises for him. Exalting him as the King of Pop and a legend. Not remembering back those "child abuse" allegations against him that they so heavily publicized back then. Making him looked wrong. All those things have seemed to have past. His good side is remembered only now.

He was never convicted for his child abuse allegations.

Though he was accused of child sexual abuse in 1993, the criminal investigation was closed due to lack of evidence and Jackson was not charged.

In 2005, during People v. Jackson
, Jackson was tried and acquitted of different sexual abuse allegations and several other charges.
- wikipedia

Though he was acquitted of all those allegations, the media never gave him a chance. Negative rumours about him was always published to increase reader ratings.

Only when he die is he praised. Isn't it too late now? He will never know of the fans admiration towards him. It that could have given him the support to quit his addiction and loneliness.

Sad, but true.

Another farewell..

Another one is leaving for the promised land Australia.

Cx, cx.. It's been nice knowing you for the past 2 years or so. Cracking all those jokes with you, making fun weird compliments of people and what not. But well, will be seeing you in another half a year. But since we celebrated your farewell, I shall write a post on that. haha =)

Thanks for all those times you taught me, maths, dynamics, psa and all the others. For "layan-ing" me also when I thought I came up with a brilliant idea and discussed it with you, only to know I'm wrong. No wonder no one came out with those ideas before.

As usual..
Jerry and Shyan

Lisa you must be so happy now.. no one to rival your out of this world, crazy high marks. haha

It's over.. at least for now


Finally I could breathe a sigh of relief after this crazy, tiring, stressful, scary.. exciting week. Having 3 papers in a week is not a fun thing especially when the Uni suddenly decides to up the ante this semester by making all the papers extra hard compared to previous sem. But well, past is the past right?

Lets just see how it goes when our marks are released on the 18th of July.

Thank God the final paper was alright, at least I hope.
