Was It Something I Didn't Say?

Spending another night alone
Wondering when
I'm gonna ever see you again...

...I should have told you how I felt then
Instead, I kept it to myself, yeah
I let my love go unexpressed
'Til it was too late
You walked away

Was it something I didn't say
When I didn't say, "I love you"?
Was it words that you never heard
All those words I should have told you
All those times, all those nights
When I had the chance to?
Was it something I didn't say?...

...
...
...I took for granted that you knew, yeah
All of the love I had for you, yeah
I guess you never had a clue'
Til it was too late
You walked away

Oh, oh, all the words were in my heart
Well, they went unspoken
Baby, now my silent heart
Is a heart that's broken
I shoulda said so many things
Shoulda let you know
You're the one I needed near me
But I never let you hear me....

SJI was the best, is, and always will be!

All through our college a voice is resounding
Promptly respond to your duty's sweet call
Harken you all for the trumpet is sounding
Your mater's proclaiming her watchword to all

Foward her children dear
Ever with hearts sincere
Render with joy to your mater her due
All that is vile reject
Heaven will e'er protect
Sons of St Joseph's valiant and true

Onward and upward in life's earnest battles
Joyously bearing the brunt of the fight
Nobly forgiving for all that may pain you
And bravely defending the cause of the right

Foward her children dear
Ever with hearts sincere
Render with joy to your mater her due
All that is vile reject
Heaven will e'er protect
Sons of St Joseph's valiant and true!

One for the World

Ok, so it's not to bad to graduate with a 2nd upper and above, perhaps pursue a PhD, earn some good money, drive a nice car, live in a nice house, with a wonderful wife and some kids running around...Or you know, be like a top businessman, earning some 5-figure income, maybe 6. Attending functions, gracing social events etc. Or just partying away with the rest of the world...Life seems pretty much fulfilled and not boring.

As i was walking past canteen A today, i think there was some nanyang arts fest going on, so hiphop, happening etc..bazaar, clothes...you name it. Somehow, i just don't feel the need to be part of any sort of fanfare anymore.. There was this sudden feeling of weariness suddenly. A weariness of the world. It strikes me during one of those times when you're walking, perhaps back to hall, alone. I reflect.. Nothing seems to interest me. Don't you ever wonder? Life can't be just study, play, go to work, earn money, tussle with the rest of the world for survival, then we just move on when the Lord calls us back.

Don't you feel empty?

Numerous thoughts were going thru my head.. It's so weary and tiring just to live on this earth. Even studying has kinda lost it's meaning for me. I think it's more of a survival thing now. Yes i do want a degree of course. But how much is it worth exactly?

Friends are wonderful gifts from God to us. Else we'd be terribly alone in this world.

I think i've become more introverted over the years. Or perhaps i've just been the case all this while. I realise I seldom talk alot in the company of many friends. Or maybe im just to lazy to talk. I just listen.

I duno if the word independent fits. Cause i still need and want friends. I'm human afterall. I don't think i'll be labelled as shy. Im far from it. Maybe the word(s) is/are "couldn't care less"

Life on earth is real short. I'm 1/4 on the way to bidding this world goodbye. Have i done anything worthwhile in the eyes of God? I don't care if i've done so in the eyes of this world. Im weary. Just want to get on with life.

I feel...

I feel... i don't know how to describe this feeling. I like you. We met under certain circumstances. Ever since then, we've gone out only once. However, there was about sufficient 'substance' in our conversation that day to make me feel that you could finally be the one. Even though it was only for a short while, i really felt we could connect. Our ideals were similar and simple. There was simply something special about you but i can't put a finger to. I just know our encounter wasn't a coincidence. Every night, I pray to God asking Him if you could finally be the one. My only answer is to wait. Today, it was an unexpected meeting with you. My heart leapt when i realised that i was gona meet you, even though it was only gona be for half an hour. It didn't matter. I was more than happy. Seeing you just makes my day. Puts a smile across my face =)) You were gona meet your friend though. Was i paranoid? Hmm i don't know. It's a guy after all =P But you've got many other guy friends and somehow this guy's different i can feel=P. Ohwell, maybe i am paranoid after all heh. But knowing you, you wouldn't jump into anything if you're unsure, what more a relationship? Anyway, I wonder when would it be the right time to let you know how i truly feel about you. I just hope it won't be too early for a rejection, neither will it be too late. Please girl, i really pray that you will be the one. It's near to impossible to try to find another like you. I really really really pray that we'd work out one day.

2 Nuns

There were two nuns...

One of them was known as Sister Mathematical (SM) and the other one was known as Sister Logical (SL). It is getting dark and they are still far away from the convent.

SM: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for the past thirty-eight and a half minutes? I wonder what he wants.

SL: It's logical. He wants to rape us.

SM: Oh, no! At this rate he will reach us in 15 minutes at the most! What can we do?

SL: The only logical thing to do of course is to walk faster.

SM: It's not working.

SL: Of course it's not working. The man did the only logical thing. He started to walk faster, too.

SM: So, what shall we do? At this rate he will reach us in one minute.

SL: The only logical thing we can do is split. You go that way and I'll go this way. He cannot follow us both.

So the man decided to follow Sister Logical. Sister Mathematical arrives at the convent and is worried about what has happened to Sister Logical. Then Sister Logical arrives.

SM: Sister Logical! Thank God you are here! Tell me what happened!

SL: The only logical thing happened. The man couldn't follow us both, so he followed me

SM: Yes, yes! But what happened then?

SL: The only logical thing happened. I started to run as fast as I could and he started to run as fast as he could.

SM : And?

SL: The only logical thing happened. He reached me

SM: Oh, dear! What did you do?

SL: The only logical thing to do. I lifted my dress up.

SM: Oh, Sister! What did the man do?

SL: The only logical thing to do. He pulled down his pants.

SM: Oh, no! What happened then?

SL: Isn't it logical, Sister? A nun with her dress up can run faster than man with his pants down .
