Lamentations

Tuesday, April 27, 2010

Lol... okay. Time for an update! And you know what sucks? I'm lazy. Yeah. Zzz. I guess it takes time to get back the "blogging mood". And I guess that my first few posts will be a little "rusty". Regardless, I guess there's a lot to cover. And I'm sure it'd be dead boring to read in one huge post about all that I missed in covering! So to be cheap, and to make it easier, I'll be really random and make things very brief if I wanna. Yeah, if I wanna.

So, I'm just too lazy to describe that clubbing night in Poppy with Lionel and group. It was basically shameless flirting on my part, and I got to hit on two girls and got their contacts. Due to distance I didn't get to chat with the prettiest girl who went. And she was outright gorgeous! And she's from Japan. Or studying there. I kinda forgot which one. Alcohol does things. Lol, oh speaking of which, it was free entry and bottles 'cause it was somebody's birthday and they opened 12 bottles! WEE!

And then I went rock climbing for a charity event, near Batu Caves. Respect for that piece of rock. And respect to Jessica, who finished it. Seriously. I was one hand grab away from finishing, but my hands were exhausted. Partially thanks to sparring with Justin, Ruz and Andrew a few days prior. My arms and hands hadn't healed yet. My knuckles were bleeding too. Anyhoo, only after giving up did I realize I picked the 2nd hardest route -.-. Great, how was I supposed to know that 6A was harder than 5B?

The hunk of rock is ENORMOUS! This is just one tiny section.

Also for a few weeks I went to help out at the new church building for carpentry work, doing up furniture and the such. Great. I spar, go rock climbing, and then use dangerous POWER TOOLS! With injured, bleeding, exhausted hands! HAHAHA. We destroyed a few hammers accidentally though.

There's two more broken ones.

Had a clubbing session at the Joint, one of the usual hangouts now with Justin, Jonas, James and the rest. I lost my Lady in the Red Dress, because some moron hit on her before I drank enough to go up to her. Later on I found out she was a prostitute. Geez.

No, not her. But almost just as pretty. *Sigh*

Had two photoshoot sessions. One for Olivia, Ruzanna and Samantha's classmate, and the other for Justin. Olivia wanted a badass child trafficker, and people recommended me -.-. Then Justin needed a heavy metal theme, and of course, he also picked me. Lmao.

This was the best picture of mine. Miki and I. Miki looks cute here, seriously.

Some time after that I went to Sungai Gabai Waterfalls with the subzone in church. The waterfall is absolutely beautiful at the bottom! Up in the higher places you can go into the falls itself. The trek up the falls is a little painful due to rocks in the water. And you can't see them. Plus it's cold.

The leading people. Everyone was always behind us.

When more people started to catch up. Lol.

There was one part where there's this "pool" and a cliff you can jump off from. All the young guys (strangers, not people we knew) were jumping off. After reaching the very highest section (in the pictures above), on our way down passing the cliff once again, some of the church guys jumped. Like Issey, Kean Hoong, Dennis and Ken. These guys are nearing their 30s! Hell no I'm losing out to them! So I climbed up the cliff and jumped! And still I felt no fear. Even with all the sharp rocks at the bottom I missed (Dennis scraped his back). It was just pure exhilaration.

I guess it was inevitable to jump once someone else did. I wouldn't lose out to anybody younger than me, and I sure as hell didn't want to lose out to 30 year olds! No offence dudes!

I joined Andrew for his friend's birthday party celebration. Met the group he hangs out with in college. Cool dudes. EGG! (LOL, inside joke). There was freaking Green Label! DAMN NICE! And it was free flow alcohol all night! Oh, I realized it might be kinda confusing for people to differentiate the two Andrews I hang out with. There's one Andrew who's a Mensa member who I haven't hung out with in a very long time and there's the Andrew I've been mentioning in my posts recently, who's in Sunway College. Amelia's boyfriend, Ruz's (and now mine) friend, and our regular spar partner. Heh.

The week after that (I think) we went to Broga Hills as a subzone. It's a small hill with 4 peaks making up the summits. Not a very strenuous trek, but quite tiring due to the inclines. The view at the top is all worth it (if you can endure all the bugs).

The 3rd summit. Although there's 4 summits, the first and second give the best view. Sunrise and landscape. The 3rd and 4th are covered with annoying peaks and trees.

From dusk till dawn.

Okay, not really -.-. More like twilight till sunrise.

Did that make sense? Or did I use the wrong words?

I went clubbing at Maison with Lionel and Hwa Rang, who met my college buddies of Neal, Ash and Justin. It was to celebrate an early birthday for Ash (and an actual birthday celebration for Ash's friend, Thomas). Best wishes! Anyway, there was one girl teasing me up on the girls-only stage. Aiks. Sexy!

Just a few days later Neal had his birthday celebration at his house. Good time meeting a few new people and all the good food! Plus, all the free alcohol! Yeah man! Justin and I drank the most, while Neal got slightly drunk, and even Wai Kwan drank (quite the miracle for her). Best wishes too man.

Last week I was (almost) a gangster again. Lmao. This deserves a full post. Let's just say I'm "a minister's son".

And I'm back in Singapore and Johor now. I went back for my Marsiling Secondary reunion and 10th anniversary. Heh, I wanted to make a short post, but I think I'll make a deeper post instead. It has been 8 years since I joined. I think it deserves more.

Yeah. These 2, plus the Genting post are all that I owe now. Okay, I've done my job!

I hope the pictures made this post a little more interesting. Yeah.

I've got a date on Friday. With a girl I haven't seen in 3 years.

Nitez!

Alrighty. My laptop has been resurrected!

Lol... okay, not really. I mentioned my battery couldn't be charged right? Turns out that my adapter was totally busted too, even though I could feel the heat from the electricity. So there was absolutely no power supply whatsoever. Aiks. Had me concerned about all my files -.-.

My laptop is perfectly fine, although still with the crappy Vista. I can't wait to reformat it once I backup all my stuff. Should I stick to the ever reliable XP, or try Windows 7, which has the XP Mode?

Anyhoo, since I've got my laptop back in working order, I can start blogging already!

Let's see... my previous, previous post ended on me going to an enjoyable time in Poppy. I guess I'll start from there...

No, not now. LOL. Lazy!

Meh... Even though that day was a very enjoyable time, I've got a heavy heart at the moment. Lol, involving a girl alright, yes, but not in that sense. It's a friendship.

I'm just thinking what to say, in the face of all the lack of logic and explanations from her. *Sigh*. Barely anything was answered.

It's the Easter weekend.

Good Friday. The day that Jesus died.

We owe our salvation and future to Him.

I've been re-reading descriptions of the pain crucifixion victims go through the last few days, coincidentally. I'll spare the details of course, but the pain was so brutal, a new word had to be invented to describe the pain on the cross; "excruciating", literally "out of crucifying". Imagine that... a pain so extraordinary, that a new word had to be invented.

It's difficult to imagine what it's like. And it's also difficult to imagine what it'd be like if He never died for me. For us.

Happy Easter.

I'd like to walk along Via Dolorosa one day.
