1. sean

used to define huge sarcastic assholes, that end up becoming amazingly sweet. Seans know exactly how to piss you off and then five seconds later have you cracking up. Huge jerks, but gotta love ‘em.

because sean realised he’s not so much into a certain someone in particular, but rather a construct of his ideal mate.

she just happens to the best fit so far.

so january was a bad month for arsenal, and we’re really playing catchup in the title race now. nevertheless, the goals are still good fun to watch! enjoy.

男人应该偷偷知道的十件事-

1．一个真正爱你的女人,需要的不是锦衣华服,海誓山盟,而是安全感。一个她可以在任何时候都靠得住的肩膀,当她受了委屈伏在你肩头哭泣的时候,不要躲开。

so i finally cut my hair to uber short length again today, the MPs really have nothing on me now heh. it’s been a long weekend, this has. but let’s just go through the highlights eh?

1 year anniversary lunch with bmt friends

after nearly 10 mths since the last meeting, the bunch from platoon 1 section 1 finally caught up again on saturday at nydc, wheelock place. even though not everyone managed to turn up, it was still quite a decent showing of 7. everyone looks a little different from what we last rmbred of each other, but some other things just never change. looking back, i’m quite blessed to have had such a cool and funny bunch of ppl for my bmt section mates, sth that affected my bmt experience for the better.

absurd person singular

it was the first meeting with the gang again since debbie’s gig at dempsey130, and boy was it good to see everyone’s faces again. the number of acsi ppl present was staggering though. it was as if a mini ac class of ‘08 reunion was being held at nusucc, the number of supporters were crazy. personally, i found the play largely enjoyable and humourous. i was particularly impressed with deb khoo, her ability to pull off her lines with that thick accent without faltering, and her acting skeelz as a raving alcoholic. asher, as usual, gave a solid performance! it was a pity we didnt see more of him though, but cheuk ho was probably more preoccupied with asher’s on-screen missus to notice (hehe). the chance to catch up with the rest of the ac folks after the play was really great, and it kinda reminded me of why i missed school so much: friends. twas a great night out.

soccer

the game today was really intense, probably due to jeremy’s absence and subsequent lack of on-pitch drama. everyone played very seriously, which added a little more oomph to the game. it was great for pastor to be able to join us in our game today. whatever keeps him going these days, i really gotta get me one of those myself. the onli blemish on the perfect sunday soccer experience was probably the injuries to both ian and marcus. hopefully it’s nth serious, and some speedy recovery is on the way hoho.

strangely enough, today reminded me of how much more comfortable i feel around the older youth, instead of my peers or juniors in church. still havent figured out why yet, but -shrug-. perhaps i will someday.

somehow, something still feels like it’s missing.

why do you keep seeking, as though I am not enough?

contentment sean, why cant you just learn.

happy anniversary pes c dudes. we’re halfway there.

bus 196, bus stop outside acsi.

sean gets into the bus.
proceeds to walk towards the rear to find a seat.
sean brushes stranger’s foot while walking past him, because it was sticking out and sean onli had a narrow path to make use of.
sean apologises to stranger, making eye contact with him in the process to express sincerity.
sean proceeds to take a seat opposite the girl sitting beside stranger, ie. diagonally opposite him.
he then starts talking to the girl abt how he’s really exhausted from frisbee.
girl responds cheerfully
friendly conversation ensues
stranger keeps shooting sean and girl weird looks during the entire duration. with a "WTF" look on his face, if you will.
stranger gets to his stop, continues looking back at sean and girl, with the same perplexed look plastered all over his face.
sean and girl laugh hysterically at stranger, get off at next stop, goes to sean’s house.

girl: thanh.
coming to sean’s house to give sheryl tuition.

sean.
heading home after frisbee at school.

relationship: ex-classmates
random fun fact: both of them bumped into each other on 196 for the 2nd week in a row, very very coincidentally.

stranger: indian male, possibly in his 20s.
look on stranger’s face = PRICELESS.

i wonder what was going through his mind the whole time. sth to the extent of "wait, picking girls up on public transportation’s THAT simple?!" i suppose? (; offer me some alternatives, this should be fun!

i’ve been so caught up with things lately i havent had much time to revisit this space, so much so that i actually feel slightly guilty for neglecting my blog for such an extended period of time. the last two posts werent even really updates abt my life and its happenings, so i suppose this one will have to be the atonement for my sins. somehow.

the past few weeks have been fairly eventful i’d say, especially with regards to church and army. the youth induction for 2010 was held last sunday, and even though it wasnt half as exciting as last year’s, it was still an encouragement to the current youth leaders, with the younger ones stepping up to the responsibility of organizing and carrying out the event giving us an indication of their continual growth and maturity. my cell of smallboyboys were pretty welcoming to the new additions, while their increasing familiarity with one another just resulting in the cell getting a lot livelier (and louder), which may or may not be a good thing, i cant say for sure yet.

jasper and chris ROD-ed last week, while zhaohan and kuan hui are ORD-ing tmr. this effectively means that half of the nsf group that usually hangs out together during lunch and whatnot has left, without anyone new coming in to replace them. it’s gonna be very strange without all of them ard, without each of their quirks and idiosyncrasies, without anyone to expect at the lunch table during lunch anymore, or the random emails and conversations that fly ard in the OA. i think zhaohan’s departure is probably gonna affect us (or maybe it’s just me) the most. no more random outbursts of insanity coupled with extreme moodswings, or intense competition over the silliest and most insignificance of things, or rating random beings that we can get visuals of.

alas, change is the only constant in life. 1 year later, and it’ll be our turn. so much of 2010 is left, so much more can happen from now until then. nevertheless, i sincerely hope that i do not lose anymore friends than i already have, either to circumstances beyond my control or to sheer unwillingness to make a conscious effort to keep in touch.

it was good to meet up with the ol’ ncc gang again today, even if i was just being ‘made use of’. i particularly appreciate hariz’s efforts to ankat my bolah, i havent been held in such high esteem for a while.

friends are people that touch your heart. you could spend hours with them doing nothing at all and it can be the best time of your life, just because it was with them. they’re the people you can share your secrets with, cry with, laugh with, and just have fun with. they dun judge you or make you change. they accept you exactly as you are. you all share something in common and are tied together by memories, tears, laughs and smiles. friendship is one of the strangest but greatest things in the world. the time i spend with my friends are some of the best times of my life.
