Investiture came and ended..with it marked the end of our odac term..one and a half years seem so short in retrospective..yet within this short period of time so many things happened...i made new, great and i believe everlasting friendship, learnt alot of new stuff which would be useful even ten years from now..and grew in a way which i never thought i could.This was what Odac gave me.."not just a cca..its life"
in a way edmund blossomed and begun his first footsteps into adulthood :)
all the proposals,the deadlines,the competitions,the scoldings,the blood,the sweat,the tears,the joy,the sadness,the madness,the rare praises,selection weekend,survival camp,june pahang trip,one star,two star,three star,climbing level 1,level 2,scholars orientation,Benom,SCS,Jc1s orientation,sea camp,March sea expedition,Belumut...the list goes on and on..
truely a road filled with obstacles :) yet we overcame all of them :D once an odacian, always an odacian!! AJ Odac rawks!!! even thou our term ended, its not the end of the journey for us :)

The park bench was deserted as I sat down to read Beneath the long, straggly branches of an old willow tree. Disillusioned by life with good reason to frown, For the world was intent on dragging me down. And if that weren't enough to ruin my day, A young boy out of breath approached me, all tired from play. He stood right before me with his head tilted down And said with great excitement, "Look what I found!" In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, with its petals all worn - not enough rain, or too little light. Wanting him to take his dead flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then shifted away. But instead of retreating he sat next to my side And placed the flower to his nose and declared with overacted surprise, "It sure smells pretty and it's beautiful, too. "That's why I picked it; here, it's for you." The weed before me was dying or dead. Not vibrant of colors, orange, yellow or red. But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied, "Just what I need." But instead of him placing the flower in my hand, He held it midair without reason or plan. It was then that I noticed for the very first time that weed-toting boy could not see: he was blind. I heard my voice quiver, tears shone like the sun As I thanked him for picking the very best one. "You're welcome," he smiled, and then ran off to play, Unaware of the impact he'd had on my day. I sat there and wondered how he managed to see A self-pitying woman beneath an old willow tree. How did he know of my self-indulged plight? Perhaps from his heart, he'd been blessed with true sight. Through the eyes of a blind child, at last I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all of those times I myself had been blind, I vowed to see the beauty in life, and appreciate every second that's mine. And then I held that wilted flower up to my nose and breathed in the fragrance of a beautiful rose and smiled as I watched that young boy, another weed in his hand about to change the life of an unsuspecting old man. ~ By Cheryl L.

life has been good so far..not much stress, also not much things to do.. yay :) just got back my pw results..just glad that i passed? yup. nothing really bad has happened to me...but not everyone ard me are happy :( wish i can help them.but i just can't..and i really tried, gave my best.but somehow it's just not enough. its your choice how u live your life

Each morning I wake up and say to myself,you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.' I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.

Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live life

extracted from shawns blog..tink its very very meaningful!
Standing for what you believe in, Regardless of the odds against you, And the pressure that tears at your resistance, ... that's Courage
Keeping a smile on your face, When inside you feel like dying, For the sake of supporting others, ... that's Strength
Stopping at nothing, And doing what's in your heart, You know is right, ... that's Determination
Doing more than is expected, To make another's life more bearable, Without utterign a single complaint, ... that's Compassion
Helping a friend in need, No matter the time or effort, To the best of your ability, ... that's Loyalty
Giving more than you have, And expecting nothing But nothing in return, ... that's Selflessness
Holding your head high, And being the best you know you can be When life seems to fall apart at your feet, Facing each difficulty with the confidence That time will bring you better tomorrow's and never giving up, ... that's Confidence
To the question of your life, You are the only Answer. To the problems of your life, You are the only Solution.

from kc's blog: Toa Payoh has this shop that sells comic books. Or you can rent them for 80 cents and read it right there. I checked out the second level and stumbled upon what struck me as a modern-day opium den. Small, enclosed room, people sedated on comic books. Terrible. Yet so appealing. When I approach 50 Im going to find myself a nice club/society, probably a reading group or a card-game group, and every weekend I'll plonk myself in a small cosy room, coffee on a side table, cards on the big one, quietly amusing individuals seated all around. Mmm. My most clearly defined aim in life is to retire, with some grace and wealth and possibly some friends, to the countryside in Britain, maybe the US. A charming country manor would be nice--the cost could be split between those with me. And every morning we would read the papers silently, sipping english tea by the french windows. And then we would have a game of cards before heading out for lunch; the manor would be in the countryside but at still a close distance to a small town. We would then head to one of the many bars in the town and have a drink or two. And we'd talk, and talk. Alternatively, a swim in a lake would be nice--I've always had that fantasy since Land Before Time. We then have Dinner. Dinner with jazz, Dinner at home beside a fireplace, anywhere would be nice. We'll then talk, or watch a show, or have a game of cards, or if a swim in the afternoon was not accomplished we could swim at night. I've always had a fantasy of swimming naked at night since..since dunno when. Beautiful isnt it. And throughout this last stage of life, I'll be looking back, looking back at everyone, everything. Probably fly here and there to see people. It's good to have a aim in life. sounds good kc :)
feeling sian..miss the vs days..so carefree..wahhhhhhh.sian.hock organise kimkeat outing lei.
