some dreams live on in time forever
those dreams,you want with all your heart
and i will do whatever it takes
follow through with the promise i made
put it all on the line
what i hoped for at last would be mine
if i could reach,higher
just for one moment touch the sky
from that one moment in my life
i am gonna be stronger
know that i have tried my very best
i would put my spirit to the test
if i could reach
some days are meant to be remembered
those days we rise above the stars
so i will go the distance this time
seeing more the higher i climb
that the more i believe
all the more that this dream would be mine

Seldom,very seldom does complete truth belong to any human disclosure; seldom can it happen that something is not a little disguised,or a little mistaken.

Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself.

Watched The Island yesterday afternoon. It was good. Then again,anything besides having to complete tons of readings these days is a good alternative haha. Heh,no lah seriously I did find it enjoyable. The action is one but to begin with,the show had caught my attention based on the plot. Thought the take on genetics and cloning was interesting and the angle from that of the clones something different. Somehow futuristic-themed shows have the tendency to make us think if that is the future we want to see as we all have a hand in shaping the future. So do I want a clone? Hmm,certainly as a short-term gain,my clone can help me halve the current workload I’m facing :p
Have read most of your blogs,nice to know everyone is doing fine these days. Too braindead to blog much about my anyhow pretty boring life. So just share something fun here,courtesy of Cat. Enjoy!
************************* The Morbid Career Guide! *************************
Scenario: One day, you get lost in the wilderness while travelling. It gets dark and you have no choice but to seek refuge in a small hut nearby. The owner tells you all his rooms are haunted. Which room will you choose?
The room where:
A) a human head stares at you maliciously from outside your window
B) the bathroom door creaks open and close, and there are sounds of a woman sighing
C) the bed starts rocking violently whenever you try to sleep on it
D) a headless ghost sits at the foot of your bed when you awake in the middle of the night
Make your choice! ... ... ... ... ... ...
Ready for the explanation? ... ... ...
A) a human head stares at you maliciously from outside your window.
Explanation: You need a lot of private space and are more suitable to work alone. You look for stability i.e. a job that is not easily affected by external factors and provides steady income. E.g. Doctor, lawyer, SOHO, teacher,administrator.
B) the bathroom door creaks open and close, and there are sounds of a woman sighing.
Explanation: You prefer a stable job that does not require you to run around or meet people. You are willing to be subjected to pressure from your bosses if that lets you sit in an air-conditioned office all day. E.g. Civil servant,engineer, computer engineer, accountant .
C) the bed starts rocking violently whenever you try to sleep on it.
Explanation: You are an active person who cannot sit still and does not like to be restrained. You are easily adaptable to a job which is full of changes and not routine. E.g. Marketing, insurance, sales, deliveryman, chauffeur.
D) a headless ghost sits at the foot of your bed when you awake in the middle of the night.
Explanation: You suit jobs that need you to meet people, especially large crowds. Your job will depend on these people, but you will not know who they are E.g.superstar, politician, PR, counter/frontline sales.
haha,stay out in the wilderness and not enter the house ah? then sounds like maybe the explanation is that you don't want to enter the workforce,the subconscious mind says you want to be a tai-tai! haha :p
