21 GunsGreen DayDo you know what's worth fighting forWhen it's not worth dying forDoes it take your breath awayAnd you feel yourself suffocatingDoes the pain weigh out the prideAnd you look for a place to hideDid someone break your heart insideYou're in ruinsOne, 21 GunsLay down your armsGive up the fightOne, 21 GunsThrow up your arms into the skyYou and IWhen you're at the end of the roadAnd you've lost all sense of controlAnd your thoughts have taken their tollWhen your mind breaks the spirit of your soulYour faith walks on broken glassAnd the hangover doesn't passNothing's ever built to lastYou're in ruinsDid you try to live on your ownWhen you burned down the house and the homeDid you stand too close to the fireLike a liar looking for forgiveness from a stoneWhen it's time to live and let dieAnd you can't get another trySomething inside this heart has diedYou're in ruinslove this song. great lyrics, great guitars, great message

interesting days eh.
wed - maths test. total mental block!!! aaaahhhhh! screw this. den had pe, 0.5 hours of assembly, ct and mock lit exam
thu - fuck you man. who the fuck do you think you are. anyway, so there i was planning to go home after lessons ended at 4. but see i so nice, stay back for coe until 8 lol. yea so "studied" with Brena, Huifang and Daren. maybe i shld start going for coe more often
fri - school as usual. den bussed down to coronation plaza with bcjy for econs. also thx to her parents for the lift home =)
yea and im now in a stay-at-home-and-study-for-prelims-and-A-levels mood. so why the hell do we still need to go to school? gah

yea. as mentioned in my previous post, ive had a (so-called) revelation, epiphany, a point on which an entire fate will be decided. that sounded so poser. anyway, ive decided im sick of always feeling sorry for myself, that life isn't worth living, that death is much better, and all that bullshit. i mean, im only 18. i still have my whole life ahead of me, a life that is too short to dwell on past mistakes and regrets, to mope and gripe about what i do not have. it's not like im disabled, have some disease or syndrome. i have a wonderful, stable family, a good home, a hell lot of luxuries, close friends that i can trust and hang out with. as written on one of my t-shirts (thx, IP Zone. lol) : every day that you live is a special occasion. and i agree. go out there, embrace the warmth and glow of the sun, the smell of the grass, the wondrous sights we have been blessed with.
im not going to let one little setback or obstacle prevent me from enjoying my life. I am in charge of my own destiny, no one else (maybe except God. heehee).
and speaking of God: i can never thank Him enough, for all the countless blessings that He has bestowed upon me, even though i don't deserve a single one of them. of course, instead of being thankful for what i have, i always request for what i do not have. it's human nature to be greedy. but with God's guidance, i hope to make all the right decisions and choices, and be able to have the strength to accept His decision. after all, He knows what's best for us.
thx to everyone who's stood by me through the shit times, who put up with all my nonsense, and still remain there for me to seek solace and comfort in. i am truly grateful.
Live life to the fullest. Enjoy as much of it as you can. to reiterate: life's too short to dwell about the negative things, the sorrows, the heartaches, the pains, the...be optimistic. be strong, embrace each new day with good cheer. For we are only as happy as we make ourselves to be. The cup shall be half-full, no longer half-empty.
