consciously let it do so

Girlfriend's Parents
A girl asks her boyfriend to come over Friday night and have dinner with her parents. Since this is such a big event, the girl announces to her boyfriend that after dinner, she would like to go out and make love for the first time.
Well, the boy is ecstatic, but he has never had sex before, so he takes a trip to the pharmacist to get some condoms. The pharmacist helps the boy for about an hour. He tells the boy everything there is to know about condoms and sex.
At the register, the pharmacist asks the boy how many condoms he'd like to buy, a 3-pack, 10-pack, or family pack. The boy insists on the family pack because he thinks he will be rather busy, it being his first time and all.
That night, the boy shows up at the girl's parents house and meets his girlfriend at the door. "Oh, I'm so excited for you to meet my parents, come on in!"
The boy goes inside and is taken to the dinner table where the girl's parents are seated. The boy quickly offers to say grace and bows his head.
A minute passes, and the boy is still deep in prayer, with his head down.
10 minutes pass, and still no movement from the boy.
Finally, after 20 minutes with his head down, the girlfriend leans over and whispers to the boyfriend, "I had no idea you were this religious."
The boy turns, and whispers back, "I had no idea your father was a pharmacist."

ow....... ha ha.

been thinking about running and interschool cross quite a bit lately... the competition, competitors, atmosphere, ... can't believe 5 yrs (if you count my nonexistant sec1 yr, then 6) of crosscountry has come to an end. looking back, i'm glad and very thankful for mr ng's pressurising in sec1. if running can be seen as somebody, it's sth that i have an extreme love-hate relationship with. i'm suffering from withdrawal symptons now.... arrrg. crap... this is immature. > :(

after john's exam his father asks for his report card . 'my friend borrowed it'
'he wants to use it to scare his parents'
hahha

happy birthday catherine chang fei shan!
i shld call you mark from now on...mmmmmmmm :)
oh anyway since your birthday is over; when jolene msged us, i had an ingenius plan. we treat you to ri food since you were craving for it the day before.. then while youre eating we'll gather all of your small and 'cute' ri boys to sing you a bday song. then maybe like we treat them to lunch too and in return let you squeeze their cheeks. hahahhaha i'm kidding abt the cheeks part. but the former, i really meant it. can totally imagine the girls, except you since youre just supposed to ogle at e kids =x, gathering all the little boys and playing with them.....

oooohmy i'm shuddering at that thought XP eeeeeeeeeeeeee. reminds me of the 156 person we talked abt just now. ha

love you catcat!

Only Hope
There's a song that's inside of my soul.
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold.
But you sing to me over and over and over again.

So, I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope.

Sing to me the song of the stars.
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I know now, you're my only hope.

I give you my destiny.
I'm giving you all of me.
I want your symphony, singing in all that I am

At the top of my lungs, I'm giving it back.
So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I pray, to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope.

aww i wanna watch a walk to remember again...

does true love still stand in this cynical, jaded world?
i know people who still believes in it.

21 Aug 08, 21:57 ben: how did the pencil appear in my pocket? amazing stuff how the paper appeared in your specs case also right... dont you know yr class full of david blanes whatever the spelling
20 Aug 08, 21:01 vivi: titi! HAHA the birthday thg was really funny ;P &we just eye concon-ed and knew what each other were thinking/laughing abt lol love uu!! ;) it was super funny. and i don't think i ever had the chance to say it because I'd have caught it by then... you've an extremely contagious laughter
20 Aug 08, 02:17 CaiJing: i know the answer to the joke before you revealed it! haha. anyways all the best to your papers!! i love olympics thanks jingjing :) only people like you can guess it lah! rmb the seaweed joke?!?!?!??! that was... the best lah. don't know what to say about that !!! At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves children with learning disabilities, the father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question: 'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does, is done with perfection. Yet my son, Shay, cannot learn things as other children do. He cannot understand things as other children do. Where is the natural order of things in my son?' The audience was stilled by the query. The father continued. 'I believe that when a child like Shay, who is mentally and physically disabled comes into the world, an opportunity to realize true human nature presents itself, and it comes in the way other people treat that child.' Then he told the following story: Shay and I walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked, 'Do you think they'll let me play?' I knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but as a father I also understood that if my son were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence to be accepted by others in spite of his handicaps. I approached one of the boys on the field and asked (not expecting much) if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance and said, 'We're losing by six runs and the game is in the eighth inning. I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him in to bat in the ninth inning.' Shay struggled over to the team's bench and, with a broad smile, put on a team shirt. I watched with a small tear in my eye and warmth in my heart. The boys saw my joy at my son being accepted. In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. In the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the right field. Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously ecstatic just to be in the game and on the field, grinning from ear to ear as I waved to him from the stands. In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again. Now, with two outs and the bases loaded, the potential winning run was on base,and Shay was scheduled to be next at bat. At this juncture, do they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game? Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was all but impossible because Shay didn't even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball. However, as Shay stepped up to the plate, the pitcher, recognizing that the other team was putting winning aside for this moment in Shay's life, moved in a few steps to lob the ball in softly so Shay could at least make contact. The first pitch came and Shay swung clumsily and missed. The pitcher again took a few steps forward to toss the ball softly towards Shay. As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher. The game would now be over. The pitcher picked up the soft grounder and could have easily thrown the ball to the first baseman. Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game. Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the first baseman's head, out of reach of all team mates. Everyone from the stands and both teams started yelling, 'Shay, run to first! Run to first!' Never in his life had Shay ever run that far, but he made it to first base. He scampered down the baseline, wide-eyed and startled. Everyone yelled, 'Run to second, run to second!' Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second, gleaming and struggling to make it to the base. By the time Shay rounded towards second base, the right fielder had the ball. The smallest guy on their team who now had his first chance to be the hero for his team. He could have thrown the ball to the second-baseman for the tag, but he understood the pitcher's intentions so he, too, intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third-baseman's head. Shay ran toward third base deliriously as the runners ahead of him circled the bases toward home. All were screaming, Shay, Shay, Shay, all the Way Shay' Shay reached third base because the opposing shortstop ran to help him by turning him in the direction of third base, and shouted, 'Run to third! Shay, run to third!' As Shay rounded third, the boys from both teams, and the spectators, were on their feet screaming, 'Shay, run home! Run home!' Shay ran to home, stepped on the plate, and was cheered as the hero who hit the grand slam and won the game for his team. 'That day', said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, 'the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of true love and humanity into this world'. Shay didn't make it to another summer. He died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making me so happy, and coming home and seeing his Mother tearfully embrace her little hero of the day! i had a dream the other day. and i talked to the preacher guy today . even though i'm no dream pro analyst and though the pg asked ,' so do you come to this church? just joined recently?' .......... (I'm what people would call a 'born Christian' fyi) i conclude that theres hope for the world. and I'm not gonna be as jaded as i was. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzSpPaCIG0g http://www.freewebs.com/pestnotes/ - math help from rj society. http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/jack_s-mannequin-lyrics/dark-blue-lyrics.html that boxed up my whole night. ... i have to unload this. my dream was... i got into an accident.a minor one with severe injuries -.- me being paralysed and disfigured , weak, strapped onto the bed by helplessness . i saw all of my loved ones , people who matter a lot to me.... and then i teared. does something like this have to happen to me to get people to show love and concern to me? heck. do things like these have to happen to my loved ones to get me to show my love and concern to them? ... I think about it and I can provide no model answer for that . this complacent thing is destroying me. and my pl . ha..

And so I want to start by giving one piece of advice to the men: when you've already won her heart, you don't need to win every argument. Marriage is considered one milestone of life. Some of you may already be married. Some of you may never be married. Some of you will be married. Some of you will enjoy the experience so much, you will be married many, many times. Good for you.

The next big milestone in your life is today: your graduation. The end of education. You're done learning. You've probably been told the big lie that "Learning is a lifelong process" and that therefore you will continue studying and taking masters' degrees and .................


Birthday Alert

-'s birthday is almost here!
See When

HAHAHAHAH. vivi and i laughed our heads off. eh you play ,more snake :D

was reading an email from about3/2 yrs ago

and completely didn't understand why that friend was feeling
dejected and speechless and hurt etc

but now i completely understand the emotional turmoil friend went through.
if only you knew

today was a good day ,i think it really helped that i had an hour plus nap the night before on top of my sleepingearlier than 12am sleep.

vicki and i are similar in so many ways man. except for the 6a1s part =p

just watched zach&cody, its usually abt them two creating havoc in the hotel but today it had some 'teenage crap' in it. but it was still so funny and cuteeeee.
zach's 12, he crushes mady whos 15.

(mady unknowingly ditched zach while approaching the guy she likes. then she kena ditched too =x_
mady: i'll consider going out with you when you're older maybe..
zach: hmmm, do you mean when i'm 13? :D
mady: ....more like 18
zach: (calculatesssss) oh, so that's in about 3657 days? !
mady: wow, since when were you so smart? :)
zach: (defeated looking face) since you told us you like smart boys ...

awww .fang and i were "eeeeeeeee so sweet " ing.

i like to save up during weekdays for my weekend splurges when i'm out. but i just spent 1/2 of what i saved today >.< botak jones is rather yummy!

heres an extremely good joke. just for you jolene.andweijie! hahahahh stop 'tsk' ing me.:

Okay, now the bonus round:

A mute person goes into a shop and wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing his teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.>Next, a blind man comes into the shop who wants to buy a pair of sunglasses; how does HE indicate what he wants?

jokelene.

He just has to open his mouth and ask... It's really very simple.

who managed to get it!!!!!!!!!!! ill box you up. olympics is addictive. i rmb in sec4 thinking that i'd be so caught up with the worldcup(which i was). then waaaaah omg, 2008 olympics, a level yr, die cant watch.... (who was i to kid.. then again i was really focussed)i still rmb ri gave their littlepunks a holiday on worldcup finals cos it was at 3am. they even organised some school gathering or whatever to watch it tgt. arrrrrrg. sexist.

mummy gave a good parallel between the olympics and rj.

"tiff, being in rjc is just like being in olympics. if you're in it, youre alr good. you see, as long as you qualify for olympics, you've a certain criteria to meet so youre v good. if you get a medal, even better. but being in olympics is already good enough. you study in rjc alr good enough. bottom few also nevermind, you're in rjc."

ON THIS, i rmb scholarshipakacollectfreethingstohavemoretostudywith day, this dad was asking this lecturerteacheretc abt sth. then the cher said "sir... (super animatedly, gestures and all) look all around you! (HE EYECONCON ED ME) you're looking at the cream of the crop!"

hahahah burst out laughing. hes so animated...can fight with vicki. oh and hes frm ntu

I'm so sorry i not only just said it and didn't try to make it happen
but made your day bad too...

i
was walking home and i saw a grey truck which reminded
me about something...about someone -
him...

my heart ached.
it struggles now at this very moment
a thought forced through from a wrong way
gush of adrenaline rush

will i be ethical and weep when that day comes?

i don't even talk to him now...
it's been ages since we've talked.
it's been months since i've seen him.
and when i do, it's before the morning rush to training.

i open the door for you.
out of duty,
out of obligation,
not of love.

will i weep for you?
i don't know
to be honest
i don't know the answer to that at all
i don't have the answer to that...

i rmb when i was young, you were my role
model. i looked forward to our outings to your place
i rmb paging you everyday to just know where you are
how you're doing

but now as knowledge seeps into the brain
as maturity grows
as pain signs its name
i know what you did
and i detest what you did

love the sinner, hate the sin
but the hatred for the sin is too great
that it has crossed the boundary to the ner.

much as i try to tell myself that
try to remind myself of our happy
innocent childlike memories

i cant shake this feeling off.

sigh. anyway i had a nice talk with beverly on the way back home.
take care in US deb. hope you make as cute a friend as i in us.
ytd's natl day celeb was really great
"hows your studies been?"
: more or less the same... but when i think abt it, argh feels like it has worsen.
"how are you?"
:feeling like shit.. i keep letting my emotions get the better of me.

i sound so desperate and i fear pretense but -- i think i need some encouragement in my life.
i need something or someone that can tolerate my coldness .
i aint ice queen, i'm human. i want to hear don't worry it will be okay s.

i suddenly feel the same fear daddy felt when the phone rings. no please, i want to love you. i want to be able to smile when i think about you, about my family. please give me the chance, privilege, opportunity whatever.
i want to be a good mother and faithfullysweet wife and have a happy family.

beijing olympics at 8pm :) MY TV IS WORKING. heh. i realise
it is so much easier to just be yourself than act like someone else, or however others want you to be like.or so you think... maybe sometimes what they want is just the raw you.

i heard the reverberating footsteps

that was a thought.because i like the song

haha...oh my. miss those times when i could busy myself with joke loading.. now even if you put 1dollar into me, i wouldn't be able to generate a joke spontaneously. but i must say i was very on form ytd. i made Csq laugh like siao.for sth i cant rmb. because i rmb laughing v hard at myself too

TRUST is a very important factor for all relationships. When trust is broken, it is the end of the relationship. Lack of trust leads to suspicion, suspicion generates anger, anger causes enmity and enmity may result in separation.

A telephone operator told me that one day she received a phone call. She answered, 'Public Utilities Board.' There was silence. She repeated, 'PUB.' There was still no answer. When she was going to cut off the line, she Heard a lady's voice, 'Oh, so this is PUB. Sorry, I got the number from my Husband's pocket but I do not know whose number it is.'

Without mutual trust, just imagine what will happen to the couple if the telephone operator answered with just 'hello' instead of 'PUB'.

mmm... a very funny yet thought provoking story haha..

aug03 video. go listen to the song!(its around 4.30min)
the video started off with the singer's testimony first, which really touched me. but to non Christians, don't be turned off! open heart, go listen. however if you're really against it, then please at least just listen to the song :) her voice is amazing..............

i got my 2nd white today.

i must broadcast this. I'm having a super annoying nasty nagging headache now.

sigh. :( (read all of the following in a serious, dead like sounding tone)

Raechelle and i had a good laugh over this name: sisighempepe

festival of praise was good yet rather haii, why must this happen, to me

I'm sorry if i sound arrogant but this is my first time.. as in first time winning. i won today's straits times inspire run! :) they say my timing is 16 half or so..for four km, hmmm, to be honest my brain cannot even process that number to judge whether it's an okay timing or not. susu said the route is probably shorter though. he can't believe that he's so pro :) Haha.

won a lot of stuff, great sponsors. and the Singapore idol contestant Levin performed, he sang a rather old song and his rendition was good. i liked it

susu was very funny, as usual. Raina and i were very amused by him, had a good time with the two of my capts :) Clarisse did 8km and did about 38minutes 0.0 and spent her time well, studied while waiting for prize presentation.

shi jun from hci was there and i finally said hi. but it was rather awkward for a while (i don't usually do such recounts.enjoy while it lasts)
me: hi (about to start a conversation but hesitated and decided to start properly since he is after all a 'stranger') oh, you're Shi jun right? (he responds. my excitement level is rising) I've noticed you since secondary school
(suddenly, i can think very fast. and realised that sounded kinda wrong)
srysry, i meant I've noticed your name since secondary school because we have the same name!
hci shi jun: (he showed a slight hint of idontknowwhat) oh yes, i also noticed one of the mg girls with the same name
then we started talking a bit about j2 and j1. then this is the coolest part, he obviously started the topic cos he's so cool : how do you pronounce your name?
me (i noticed two onlookers smiling, was wondering if they were his parents... if they weren't, they must have been extremely amused at our conversation. I'd be) : to be honest, i don't know. every year, different Chinese teacher, different way of pronunciation...
hci sj: but which is the correct one?
me: ay... (thinks for a while) actually i don't know. I'm from MG leh, not Chinese high...( i couldn't believe i said that hahaha) you?
sj: (looks stunned) i'm shi1 jun4
i see... but but, (quickly redeem myself) i think my name shi2 jun1. yeah, shi2 jun1 sounds right, you're shi1 jun4 right?
yes yes

how interesting can a conversation get :) he sounds so dead but no, he was more animated than that but i can't remember the exact random fillers.

Transylvania Mcfly

I've an intimidating number of 135 emails.
