the story of the ant.
a long time ago,
there lived an ant.
it grew from a small little ant,
to a big black ant.
60days. 60 days is all it takes.


- ants are very strong people,
who are able to lift up many things beyond their weight.
even if it means lifting up a lizard.

- ants are very united people,
who will not hesitate to help one another.
even if it means lifting a lizard up the wall together.

- ants are very determined people,
with super-undying determination to do what they want to do
even if it means lifting a lizard up the wall together, despite failing many times.


but,
Shi zhong, ants are only that small little insect that are just as vulnerable as anyy others.
one moment they can be strolling so happily down a big grey table,
next moment they are squished. dead.
that is the life of an ant.

life is just so vulnerable. so unpredictable. so wierd.
juz saw final destination 3.
a super crazy show, where evryone dies.
juz killed an ant.
on a super grey table, where it died.

the end.

THE PIANO MAN

"It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says, "Son, can you play me a melody?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As the smile ran away from his face"
Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile'
Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"
Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright..."

Can you play me a melody? I'm not really sure how it goes..
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete..."

I was packing thru' my files, when i stumbled upon this poem, which i tot was quite nice, and wld like to share w u guyz.
here goes...

"ONE song can spark a moment,
ONE flower can wake the senses.
ONE tree can start a forest,
ONE bird can herald spring.

ONE smile begins a friendship.
ONE handclasp lifts a soul.
ONE star can guide a ship at sea,
ONE word can frame the goal.

ONE vote can change a nation,
ONE sunbeam lights a room.
ONE candle wipes out darkness.
ONE laugh will conquer gloom.

ONE step must start a journey,
ONE word must start each prayer.
ONE hope will raiseour spirits,
ONE touch can show you care.

ONE voice can speak with wisdom,
ONE heart can know what's true.
ONE life can make a difference,
you see, it's all up to YOU!"

This page shall be dedicated to a friend of mine.
i was shocked when i heard that one of my fren had asked to retain.
very shocked.
it is very saddening to know that his last day studyin as scg17/05 is about to come to an end.

one whole year has passed since 2005.
and knowing that everyone has been promoted, i was truly very happy about that.
whether is it kengfoo, or dihui or even you guys,
knowing that i wouldn't haf to lose a member, is indeed sth to be happy about.
the class has matured from a group of young, innocent kids who did know much about each other, to what it is today. and duo duo shao shao we will also have our happy and sad moments that we shared together. laugh together, work together, and play together.

specially to dihui:
dihui,
i can see that you are really trying your best to cope in your studies this year.
Attending as many lessons as you could possibly cope,
staying up late nights just to complete your tutorials.
your bio tutorials which you always hao lian this year to me that you did,
your chem test that you managed to beat me by twice my score,
your maths tutorials that you make an attempt to try to understand and asking around for help.
i admire your perserverance, and courage for willing to take the step forward to study hard, and shen zhi to even requesting to be retained.
although i wouldn't want to lose such a special guy like yar, and i know that the road down wun be very easy for ya, having to rong ru with a new classmates, a new environment, and learning a new syllabus, but i know that its not a totally wrong decision to make.
Nevertheless, i wish you all the best in your future endeavours and gogogo! you can do it!! you will always and forever be the "big, fat, clumsy" member of the SCG17/05 that we knew... =)
Thanks for being my friend.

P.S. Hope that that photo that we took in biology will not be the last photo that we will take togeda. Rest well, study smart, and play hard too!
