The Road Not Taken
by: Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the tother, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy ans wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference.

The Source Of Life starts at... 10:27 AM.
+All in a day's work+
Good day to all! First of all, I would like to wish all students, especially JC and Poly students good luck for the new term. With the new term, we’ll all be faced with impending challenges, difficult tests and emotional distress. To us JC students, we have the block tests in the first week of school and I have to tell you, the tests were bloody stressful! So I have came up with an ultimate goal for myself, and that is to really start studying! I can do it!!
Anyway, on Saturday, there were two major events happening for me throughout the day. There’s supposed to be a Youth Seminar for me at Tampinese JC but I ended up not going because I overslept! The thing starts at 8.30am, but I woke up after nine!!! I guess that I did not hear my alarm. *sigh* Shit man! I could have learnt something from it. But the thing was that there’s no transport made available for us, so we have to go there ourselves. That’s why I set my alarm at 5.30am. And I did not hear it. *sigh*
Anyway, I went for the other event, that is the SYF Official Opening at the National Stadium. Even though it wasn’t really exciting for me, was entertained by the different display bands there. There was the display band of Victoria Institution from Malaysia and the Saranaree Bandfrom Thailand.The opening was also a competition with three school display bands namely Tanjong Katong Secondary School, Deyi Secondary School and Bowen Secondary Secondary. Tanjong Katong won the Display Band of the Year award and the drum major from Deyi Sec won the Drum Major of the Year award. It was fascinating even though I had problems hearing what they were all playing. Items featured in the event were the different mass displays featuring schools with the likes of Nan Chiau High and Beatty Sec. Then there’s the Combined schools Choir and The Synchronized Schools Choir. They were huge. They sang songs such as Munaeru Valiba, I Dream and Reaching Beyond, the SYF’s theme song. The finale also features the winners of Campus Superstar. The spectators were phenomenal as the different schools that attended (I think more than 150) gave their best to cheer on for all the performers and competitors. Oh ya!AiN Nabila, a school mate and my ‘free-period buddy’ in EVG was involved in the Milennia Girls Contingent featured in the parade. The parade consisting of the contingents of NCC (LAND), NCC (AIR), GIRL GUIDES, BOYS BRIGADE, NCC (BOYS), NCC (GIRLS), ST JOHN’S, NPCC (BOYS), NPCC (GIRLS), the contingent from St Joseph Instition carrying the State Flags and the Milennian girl contingent. I think there’s another two more contingents but I forgot what they are. The Milennian contingent was led by Lee Siya, another ex-schoolmate of mine, who also happens to be my ex-Student Council colleague. I was not a fan of here anyway.
The event ended near 7pm and I waited for my juniors outside of the East Entrance. I thought of asking for a lift from them but, what the heck. It’s Youth Day this Monday and might as well I treat myself shopping somewhere. At first I declined my YJCian Band members when they asked me to tag along for dinner as I said that I had no money. But then I remembered that I was carrying my ATM card. So I took the bus 16 to an unknown destination. I alighted at Marine Parade and took the 31 bus which I thought was heading for Toa Payoh. Instead, it was to Tampinese. But all in all, I went shopping at Tampniese Mall. However, the mall was packed due to a nearby pasar malam. Anyway, I went to the pasar malam, bought myself some takoyaki balls and went into the mall. First store was Toys ‘R’ Us where I just looked around. Hey, there’s still a kid in me you know. Anyway, then after that, I went to buy a CD and a t-shirt before heading to Bugis to meet my parents for dinner. We ate at Banquet which was about to close. I ate some pau and a tom yam dish which tastes awful! I also met a family friend which I also regarded as my own aunt as she was the one who took care of me when I was young. It’s been a long time since I’ve met her. She’s working in Banquet now as one of the stall holders there. From there, after eating, me and my parents decided to head home as my mom wanted to watch the soccer match happening that night.
Oh ya, btw, Brazil is out! OMG! They are like good la! I only found out the morning after the match. Aiyoh, first Argentina, then Brazil!! Boo hoo!!!
Anyway, that’s all that I have for today, see ya soon!!
