Raison D'etre

A reason to exist. 

A reason being.

A reason.

"The bell toiled for the past, where new strangers and old friends treaded.

Like the rivers flowing separately, where the ocean they shall met.

As a new chapter unfolds, the old skin shall shed.

Where tears of joy and laughter of sorrows will be in history's debt.

Leopards never change their spots, many likened to fret.

A new chapter they wrote, yet an old self they penned.

As a new chapter unfolds, I looked with dread.

Where the shinny new paths may lead to Heavens or abyssal depths."

Yinyangme&u will live on. But its Raison D'etre that defines. A new path I shall embark on, whilst many already swimming in that cold cauldron. Verily, my days shall be myraided with new issues, challenges and exciting prospects. A wise man said that its not a problem if you don't see it as a problem.

When, as an ode to procrastination, I have a post title "A day in a month", which documents my NS experience, the end of journey Convocation and the Graduation dinner. Cheers to Procrastination!

Happy Birthday to Singapore. 42 years of nation building. It seems that Singapore is a place where one would call home, and yet, one would yearn to live in a hotel.  

Raison D'etre..........

Crossroad

Suddenly at the end of a 10 year marathon, the finishing line seemed so unfamiliar. The lifestyle so focused on studying and slacking is evaporating with the passing minute. Like a pool of water, evaporation seems like an end to the many bonds that so tightly knitted together, yet, separation is an eventual fact. Finally, at the end of the run, there lingered a tinge of unwillingness to relinquish the much cherished identify of being a student.

Its a Fact.

Get on with Life.

Reflection 05/05/2007

Looking at my BARE blog and the Dysfunctional "A Photo A Day" blog, I realized how my life is very much donated to other stuff. For one, World of Warcraft have been my second home, more precisely, the Shattrath City. For many suns and moons, I treaded the land as Eveningsong. I am a Druid, dedicated to the protection of the land and nature. Partnering with my best buddy, the Servant of Elune, Divine Healer and Protector, the Priest, Secluser, we stormed the gray Shadow Labyrinth, the dusty Shattered Hall and battled uncountless Hordes and the Undeads. Yes. I am Eveningsong most of the time, only sometimes Kennyboy.

Real life brings another set of challenges to Kennyboy. I have just completed my ~~~hopefully~~~ final examinations with NTU. By right, it should be the last of the exams I will be taking as a "STUDENT". No longer can I ask for "Student Buffet", pay for "Student Concessionary Price" and enjoy a Student's life. Soon, actually August 13th, I will be thrown mercilessly into the cauldron of REAL LIFE. Shigoto suru. Ernst & Young will definitely open up another chapter of my life. Although the book is unwilling to be flip open.

Right now, I am facing yet another exam. This time as a CFA candidate. Its a profession certification and its what I am really interested in. Need to start mugging for it since the exam is less than a month away. >.<

Verily, REAL LIFE do bring forth happiness.

For example, I am really thankful to ALL my pals who celebrated my birthday (incidentally its at February the 15th). To my JC mates especially, FY + CY + SB, THANK YOU for YOUR CUP + KBOX!!! And to the friend of mine, aka, Secluser in the Virtual World Thank You for your S.H.E concert treat.





Really touched!!! As I always mention in my blog, nothing beats having BUDDIES AND PALS!!! So what if you are very rich? So what if you boast to have many many many "friends"? ***Yawnzzzz***

And in REAL LIFE, I get to travel out of Singapore. I just came back from a graduation trip to Taipei with my University friends. It was totally invigorating after the many months of schooling. Get to have a taste of what GOOD FOOD was, how LIFE SHOULD BE ENJOYED VIA HOT SPRINGS, SHOPPING, SIGHT-SEEING, GETTING SUPER GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE and A GOOD HAIR CUT.

Susagage Lips

There will be always be interesting people around me. By interesting, I am just plain implyint that they are rude, obnoxious, devoid of any society-deemed normacy. Simply they are the idiots of our time, bane of the society and speechlessly undescriptable morons.

There was this lady, whom I shall call susagage lips, in my CFA course that fits with the above description of interesting. Miss Susagage Lips (as her name implies, has really thick, but droopy lips. Not the sexy and succulent Shu Qi type, but the stale and lifeless hot-dog type) was very rude. Why?

I do not know what gotten into her. Maybe her PMS? Or maybe some effects from menopause? Or simply she did not derive enough satisfaction from her last night romp. I do not know and do not wish know too. The course instructor was starting the lesson. When Miss Susagage Lips burst out, "Would you please speak up!" I flicked my head around and there I saw it.....the classic moment of Miss Susagage Lips.... she battered her eyelids as if announcing to the world that "Oh please, I am so superior that my Eyelids can teach." And then, her pouting of her susagage lips, as if telling us "Kiss me. I have spoken up for you...all I need for a reward is a tender touch from your lips to my lips." Then she shook her head within a small degree angle, as if she was possessed, only that she shook slower.

Oh well, she could be some Vice-President for all I know.

Mental-note: Bring hot-dogs for her next week.

A New Year

Although 01/01/07 is just another date on the calendar, to many people it represents a new start to their lives. To me, it is a day where our languidness and invigorates itself. A lot of things is going through my mind as the seconds count down to 2007. For a start, 2007 will see me relinquishing my role as a student and taking on more responsibilities as a full-fledged adult. Like a hatchling maturing into an eagle, all really to fly out to heavens above.

There are many things to look forward. For a starter, the new semester. There will be new people to meet, new modules to kill me and new things to learn. I really treasure all the last moments of this semester.....

Then for the next part of the year, there will be another ICT. ~~shudders~~

And of course, embracing a new environment in Ernst and Young.

Pretty much, it will be an eventful year and a year that will see me grow up. Yet, there are many things that I wish that I can hold on really tight, like schooling and my youth. I feel so old. Old as in not anymore young. Meaning that I can't really laze around and do nothing. This is the price to pay for growing up. And of course, people will give me the weird stare should I start to talk about cartoons. :(....and need to reduce on my cuteness....-_-```

Very well, I love all beginnings. The smell of freshness and tenderness, afterall I am born in spring.

Chilling

The Bose speaker calmly sang "Jesus to a child". The unusally cold wind danced in the room. The soothing dark sky yawned sleepily. Yet, I am disturbed by a thought. Here I am surfing the Internet. I am just randomly surfing through pages after pages, yet, there are people desperated to log on and to use the net for some important uses. The damaged network has caused the ISPs to promptly divert the traffic elsewhere, thus causing network congestions.

Volunteers in Aceh and parts of Malaysia appealed to the international community to reduce the usage of the Internet, in order for them to effectively use the network to communicate. There they are, desperately saving flood victims and moving vital supplies to the affected areas, and I here well-protected from the elements, wasting the precious resources and now fighting with them over the use of the network.

I just shuddered.
