9-11

911
Few years down the road, the world still commemorate for those who perished.
Inevitably, facet of memories for those who encounter the unfateful day, should be remembered.
A moment of silent to consolidate the souls of those, who shall remain forever, in our memories.
That we will, and shall never bow to terrorism.
Instead, we will, and shall get back to our feet and stay together as one.United.

That's what i hope my two clubs, ok.. Perhaps three will be.United as one.

-------------------------------------------------------------~
Well, enough about my Lifesaving.About my Club, ASHRAE (In short)
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, Air-conditioning of Engineerus)
Basically, it's very much related to my course, IBT (Intelligent Building Technology)
That's how this club is established about 9years ago?

Interest Group.
Interesting?
Having to work with people you don't really know (*really that well, that close)
And most of the time, you dOn't understand what they talking about because of anOther language.
Sometimes i just wiSh i could pick out other language, but time is what i need which i dOn't have for now.

Out of 10 people, there's only one who's Chinese. (Me, for this very instance.)
No racism or whatsoever, but sOmetimes i juSt wish to set a rule in the clubroom..

*Channel5 (Hope you get what i'm trying to imply)
It's really hard as (Prior to my own opinion) other club whereby majority is Chinese, they tOo! toO speaks Chinese even though there's other people around who dOn't understand their language.

Globalisation.
It happens!
Well, took me quite sOme time to figure that out.
Well well, now it takes what it takes, for people to either get use to it (*in anOther word dOn't bother), or adapt.

i just hope we'll stay United.
But procastinate does happen.

Sometimes i wonDer,
Are rules meant to be broken?
Are promises meant to be empty?

Well, it takes all you takes.
To believe, to have trust and faith in the person whom you dedicate task to.
Many atimes, people are cropped up with many other commitments.
But do you have what it takes?

School related, Personal (Family, friends, bf/gf etc) and many many others.
Stress comes from everywhere, everyone.
But it's how well you manage it.
Stress can be a good thing, for it motivates and keep us going.

On the other hand, if you abuse and try to take too many things into your own hands.
Haywired.
Things might get out of hand, and bad-stress comes in.
You might flare-up, do sOme unimaginable things (Stupid in anOther sense..)

Enough of my Club for now..
Having Sleepless night for weEks & months..
Luckily my Lifesaving is able to tire me out (*Or basically i juSt chose to..) and have a good night sleep. =p

It wOrks both way.
When i've stRess over ASHRAE, i'll go exert and put my concentration into Lifesaving, vice versa.
They say swim keeps your mind clear.
Well, when you're swimming and have nOthing muCh to do except keep swim..
Thoughts just fill my mind.

And when i'm tire out over lifesaving, (*swim tOo muCh can cause tremedous muscle aChe due to overtrain)
i'll sit dOwn and try to relax myself by doing things for my club. Think.
Basically, i just think and think what i can do. What else? Think again.

-------------------------------------------------------------~
What's with the "Maybe three" to stay United
- Taekwondo
Though it's every Sat, 7-9pm.
i'm just tOo exhausted.
Mon-Fri (Lifesaving + ASHRAE) already let me having to breathe harder.

As a black-belt over at the Club, i kinDa feel insignificant.
Complicated.
For i "take" class with other Black-belter's.
But as i'm a convert from Academy to Ferderation (*Current), therefore i'm not farmiliar with the Patterns.

But i'm think i'm, definately one of the fittest there..
But i gueSs i dOn't have the experience for what it takes.
To take part in competitions (Yet.)
Recently, our club just got 3rd for the National's.

Proud.
But none of my credits for i've been MIA for months due to my Lifesaving.
Excuse! i knOw Taekwondo can change my life.. But i just feel that i'm not those violent violent, agressive type.
Lifesaving suit me better though, how to "treat" people (Better! haha..)
As a Lifesaver cum 1st-aider, i've seen quite a number of cases involving from small cuts to broken finger (Bloody!) Ohh.. can't imagine what's worst when i see the NEWS.

i always think i'm lucky.
Well, friends are always there for me, no doubt.
Thanks!!

World of friends,
i think we really cannot survive w/o friends.
But through "friends", i've seen alot of people from all walks of life..

It only make me wiser.
That's why people always say,
Wisdom grows with Age.

It takes one to judge from what's right, what wrong.
Friends, i believe. i trust.
Have faith in and i hope, that i'll remain this positive mentality. Always.

i Believe, you have no means to harm me.
For i, do not have any, against you.
Even if you harm me, i believe i deserve it.
For everyone is sinned, unless you dare disagree.

Ohh my..
it's been quite sOme time sinCe i've been here and so muCh mind-blogging!
Hope life will get better, as it is now.
Tomorrow will always be a better day, i hope. (^ ^,)


Takecarey everyone!
Signing off.
