::ME::
In a place of voidness, I need colours. Blue, Red, Green.
May the colours tell of a story that will not let me regret.

Reaching for the stars...
Ha. Returned from the Chingay workshop. Slept for 1 hour and first thing I saw when I woke up - my father's black black black face. Reason - unknown. Casualties - 1, my brother. Extent of anger - So far, I would say level 1. It'll escalate soon.
I signed up for the Chingay thing for only 1 purpose - to get my CIP for my testimonial. Seriously, I wonder if there's anybody who went not for that reason. It's practical, Singaporeans are very practical and I don't like it. The way the committee for the Chingay Dream Team tries to spice up the entire voluntary work has kinda been futile It seems naturally getting to know others is the correct and most effective way, not through silly ice-breaking games. Take today for example. My group, US 25 (a bit silly also) , was bored from the usual, overplayed game like - WACKO. So the few enthusiastic J1s introduced other games. Even the boys who looked like they were forced to be there had fun. Haha. Al it takes is just some 'pushers' and the feeling gets going.
I realised I don't have time this weekend. Today, I have the chingay thing, tomorrow, I have to attend my father's R & R gathering , for free bowling games. Talk about being a super CHEAPO. Ok, I admit, theres always the night. But the fact of having to do homework in front of my dad will only mean one thing, scoldings. He'll scold this and that, of how I don't handle my time and blame every other things and not listen. Oh well, I hope to pull it off tonight. Haha. Sometimes, my parents irk me. Role models hey are not, there's like so many things to pick on, and not one good point. Knowing someone too well will only result in the good points being overlooked. Or maybe that only applies to my family. Haha.
January is coming to an end. I can't believe I daringly hope to get all A's for my A level subjects except for Maths. I know I can't do it. So I've decided to follow the advice which I always will not admit it's correct. 'Reach for the stars, even if you fall, you'll land among the clouds.' That's the old-fashioned slogan which I don't really agree. To me, it's more of 'Reach for the clouds because you know you won't fall from there.' I don't think one should strife for the impossible as 'Nothing is Impossible' so that means we are striving for NOTHING. Maybe I am wrong but I won't admit I am wrong. Haha. One trait of Aquarians - Never admit that others are correct. I shall try to aim for the stars this year, at least the lowest star will do.
I'll need a little stardust to help me do that.
