From a decision to put the foot down before 06,
the change has come and taken place.
It's different now, i can feel.
And i know...
Not by me.
Not by the world.
Nows another time ...
Breaking out of this comfort zone.
Slowly slowly...
It'll come...

~ Prayer of St Francis ~
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O, Divine Master,grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

~ Much About Corn ~
Corn
Corn: a versatile crop
Popcorn, cornflakes, cornstarch, tortillas, cooking oil, corn syrup, corn on the cob, corn
in the can – all these products, and more, are derived from a single, very versatile plant –
maize. It is an important human food and a source of industrial raw materials. But
its main use, accounting for almost two-thirds of total production world-wide, is feeding
animals.
Maize is a grass that was first domesticated in Mexico more than 8000 years ago, and
is now the world’s third most planted crop after wheat and rice. Its two names – maize
and corn – are both derived from ancient names for the plant.
The largest grower is the United States, which produced 241 million metric tons in
2001, followed by China at 115 million metric tons and Brazil at 41 million metric tons.
While between them, these three countries account for two-thirds of total world
production, other significant producers in 2001 were Mexico at 16 million tons, France
at 15 million tons, Argentina at 15 million tons, Italy at 10 million tons and Canada
at 8 million tons.
One of the reasons there are so many uses for corn is that there are many different types,
which generate different levels of starch, sugar and water in their seeds. Popcorn, for
example, has a relatively high moisture content, while sweet corn is grown as a vegetable
because of its high sugar content. There are also many varieties of what is termed “field”
corn, grown for livestock feed, food processing and industrial uses.
Depending on the variety and the conditions under which it is grown, a corn plant
can take from 60 to 330 days to reach maturity, when it can be from 0.5 meters to 5
meters high. Because of its economic importance, corn has been extensively and
intensively bred to produce high-yielding hybrids that are resistant to disease, pests and
environmental stresses, suited to differing climatic conditions, and easy to harvest.
Even with the advantages of modern hybrids, growers face a range of challenges in
maintaining production levels and, at the same time, conserving soil fertility and
structure, and protecting the environment. Yields can be reduced by weather damage,
by weeds and by a huge number of pests, including insects, nematode worms, and a
wide range of bacteria and fungi.
A number of insects prey on corn but one of the most damaging is the corn borer, so
called because the larvae of this moth tunnel into the plant, eating it as they go. It
is estimated that each year 40 million tons of corn never reach the market because of
damage by the corn borer – equivalent to the entire production of Brazil. Damage
and control costs in North America alone exceed US$1 billion per annum; a single
outbreak in Minnesota in 1995 cost US$285 million.
Chemical insecticides and biological control methods are available to control outbreaks
of corn borer, but the nature of the infestation makes it difficult and expensive to
deal with.

~ An inspiration of the night ~
Long in me have i seen,
Not my own understanding of this world.
Yet within it chooses to stay.
Unsure of how, it should reveal.
As now the hands have tried,
writing out my previous thoughts.
Find once again the words to rhyme.
To create this prose that's yet undone.
Least i've found in this day,
that strength in anguish creates much pain.
A strength from Grace slowly reveals,
That much is seen when one shall yield...
Much is left in this jigsaw mind,
Of pieces, pictures, clear to me.
With fumbling hands do i try,
To speak to you, with my words.
How i've missed the days before,
where i might rattle on and on.
Now a purpose grows in me.
And i hope to grow in Him.
Until another time that comes,
that these hands should percieve.
The tinkling of the itch to type,
Shall i now asleep, tonight.

~ Machine that tells the future ? ~
This link here will bring you to the article.
But in short, its about a black box that's able to be 'manipulated'
by the collective consciousness of human minds.
Pretty interesting read.
And yes... i'm having exams next week til 23rd.
woo hoo. Ain't this exciting.
haha

~ Another one of those crazy weekends ~
In a lack of my forsight, i didn't anticipate that this week would be
the one where 2 reports would be due, including one presentation.
So i happily went to sign up for the round island run organised by NTU
for it's 50th aniversary and also the SMRT challenge on sun.
The run was actually quite interesting, due to the fact that i felt like i was
part of a big event, however the short run of 3km from macritchi to thomson
didn't realli qualify for anything. Felt that it's quiet messy in a way and it's pretty hard to run with so many people walking about. Whatever... at least there's still the goodie bag :)
However, comparing that goodie bag to the one given by the SMRT challenge,
haha... ya. I didn't expect so much from them. But it's nice, and i guess one can probably
see it in the way that, SMRT, is giving back to the society. :)
See the 2 bags and a teeshirt? It's kinda a consolation to our team as we didn't
manage to win the top 3 places or any lucky draw prizes. :<
Yupz, there's the 3 of us, having fun riding on the train the whole day
from Yew Tee -> Bukit Pangjang -> Chinese Garden -> Cityhall ->
Sommerset -> Novena -> CHANGI AIRPORT....
Changi Airport.. that's our big mistake.
And this is the clue that got us flying of to the airport, which actually cost
us quite some time. Reading this carefully again, one would notice the transfer being italicised... but then again, would anyone actually
think of the airport or tenah merah interchange on the first try?
Then it's off from there to tampinese -> Yishun (bus) -> Woodlands (End)
~~~~~~~
Scene back at the starting/end point. And that's the end of a pretty tiring day.
Still it's a fun experience. NEXT YEAR. we'll be back :)

Babies and more babies! Where are they coming from?
One of the many cute babies seen around in church.
But this one belongs to robin.
Yj's cute little nephew, but think he's much more chubbier now.
I think babies look so cute when they're yawning.
-------------------------------
Something i took while driving back along the stretch of sin ming industrial
estate a few weeks back. A herby look alike and not only that but there
were other cars there that were really nice, but all too dark to be taken down.
--------------------------
This here is a picture taken from australia. Was taken with my phone, as my batteries
went flat on me while i was in the zoo there. Currently this is the bird feeding time.
And i was being surrounded by lorrikeets and i had to put on a cap cos they
would even perch themselves on the head and their claws are pretty sharp.
Also not to mention that they poo once u've fed them enough.

~ My first official interview ~
Haha.. as said.. well it was fun. But well.. in the end talked alot of other stuff.
Cos the guy interviewing was a senior from my course. Way senior.
Anyway, after the interview, found that actually, tyco's IT auditing job
might not be a bad thing to do.
They get to travel alot and to help optimise the different it business systems
and work together with the finance side pretty closely. So in a way it's one area
i could go into if i can't go into research next time. Haha..
Anyway i did mention that i would want to go into research next time, so i guess
they might not want me as why would they want someone who isn't going to stay
on next time. Heh.
Anyway, i had a silly time of photo taking after that. Pretty fun.
Went to the lib for the wrong reasons too. muahah.
Oh yah, was something freeky, i saw a taxi door close by itself, at first
i thought that there was a passenger inside but when i looked closely i only
saw the driver... please tell me it's a new tech that comfort taxis are now
coming with automated doors.
Else i dunno what close that door. hahah...

~ Give up... ~
Argh... think shall not bother with any new layouts and stuff.
Haha.. Only just make me stop writing.
Then again... what do i want to write about.
Ha.. so many thoughts once again.
Think i'm sliding down this stream of thoughts once again,
have to be more discerning of what to follow.
Shan't let the things of the past happen again.
Perhaps it's time to learn some mind tricks to keep thoughts
at bay.
Anyway Happy teacher's day. Be you a teacher in school... trainee..
tuition... mentor... rem this day. That maybe it's in all our roles to be
teachers. To teach and pass down the things of today.
lalala. (why are ppl putting this as their nick these days?)

~ One day in east point...(still not the thing that's coming up)~
The day started out with an early wake up call.
Brought about by the loud blasting sound of class 95.
Irritating... thought i was immuned to the hifi's alarm
but i guess i set it too loud the night before.
Anyway guess it works. So i had to drag myself outta bed.
Dad was making hotdogs for breakfast. Yummy.
Even had mustard sauce. Then it was down to east point.
ToTs (Touch of the Hearts) event was being held there,
and i was relegated to do ticket selling... the whole day. Argh.
But well i guess God is good and even though i started off
not really liking it, it felt satisfying after a while. Sorta got into
the rythmn.
And i also sorta became like a robot... repeating,
"hello sir...we're from ntu.. and we're here on behalf of singapore
club rainbow, an organization that gives support to children with
chronic illness such as cancer and heart problems..."
Dohz... anyway although rejections were aplenty, there were still
rather generous souls around who just bought 5 tickets which is
10 bucks from me. And that makes a happy me. But the bottom line
is, i managed to sell finish the 2 booklets. :)
But as i was asking around, there was this uncle, he said he has been
giving so much to charity already and then he started talking about
singapore dying. Like there's no more hope and that the government
is taking up all the lucurative jobs. And gave the example of NTUC going
into the funeral business. Then he said to me, that if there's a chance, to
leave singapore for it's really very hard to live here.
Well that's a thought to think about. I used to think like that too. But then again
after going for my holiday in australia. I've learnt that i would want to see the world
and travel but then again, there's still nothing like home. The place where you grew up
in. Even though things may be getting tougher here... i guess it's really up to our
generation to start making the plans and the changes to ensure that we
have a livable place here.
Sounds politically correct huh... but i guess that's what i feel. No matter what kinds of
stories there are going on about the behinds of the govt. But then, i might want to live
out my retirement age elsewhere.... haha... thinking too far ahead. Might change my
thinking along the way.
Blah.. .too tired... still got tut tom morn...argh...
signing off.

Gees. This place stinks of cobwebs and dead insects.
Think i've neglected to write anything of worth for too long.
Anyway will be working on stm...
Haha.. so for those who're interested, do stay tuned.
If not you can just presume this as dead. Muahaha..
I just luvv, when the term start... busyness knows no end.

~ Memoires of a 6610i ~
As days go by the time to plug in with the
main computer draws near.
Ole 6610i has just undergone a major
upgrade and resetted to it's infant stages.
Leaving me with space for pictures and things
for viewing pleasure.
Took this while waiting at a junction at Lor Ah Soo,
Looked like some tutu car from far...
Up close, I realised that it's a bike for people
on wheelchair.
Yes, another one of my car taking escapades.
Found this blue baby at the carpark in can a.
Yesh... another collection to my rx8 family.
muahahah
A pretty nice sunset pic. Too bad the phone
can't really capture the full brilliance of it.
As i stood there taking this, I was really in awe
of the colors in the sky.
Took this while at the first night of the PCK musical.
That would be 100605. Anyway it's just a floating
mascot of PCK and this guy in black is carrying
him on his back going all over the place.
The back view of PCK. Supposed to be saying
about the musical.
Anyway, about hte musical... i must say...
it's just a good attempt. Haha... shouldn't have
expected much, but still don't feel it's that spectecular
or anything as the story is really cheezy.
*... mmm... cheeze.... yummy... *
Ok, besides that, the in door stadium was way
too big to house such a muscial. People at the sides and sitting
higher up can't see the faces and expressions.
But at least i realised that the Margaret (Tan Keng Hua?) and
Gurmit can sing quite well. I had this feeling that if Gurmit wasn't
trying so hard to act stupid in his pck personality, the show would
have been much better. But then, it wouldn't be pck then would it?
Lastly, at the end they had this video with different people wishing
PCK happy birthday. Appearently there's this big rainbow there
blocking the top part of the screen and all i could see was the bodies.
Sad.

~ A mirror, I see ~
Oh young one, why do you try so hard,
To grasp at fleeting strains of ribbons
To seek so much of a fleeting moment,
Where you thought you knew.
Then you learn to walk and run,
Yet you still lean on to your past,
Finding comfort fingering fleeting ribbons,
Just enjoying your fleeting moments.
Then you fall and you know hurt,
Growing weary of that fleeting moment,
Wanting to hold on to that ribbon,
Learning to tie and secure.
Now the path is still dark and long,
Yet time has made the dark easy to bear,
One day you'll hold on firmly,
Someday, you'll understand.
Oh young one, why do you try so hard,
To grasp at fleeting strains of ribbons
To seek so much of a fleeting moment,
Where you thought you knew.
Then you learn to walk and run,
Yet you still lean on to your past,
Finding comfort fingering fleeting ribbons,
Just enjoying your fleeting moments.
Then you fall and you know hurt,
Growing weary of that fleeting moment,
Wanting to hold on to that ribbon,
Learning to tie and secure.
Now the path is still dark and long,
Yet time has made the dark easy to bear,
One day you'll hold on firmly,
Someday, you'll understand.

~ Chinese World Book Fair...? ~
So here i am, stall keeper for a day. Yes, only just for a day.
Spent 11 hrs standing and looking at strangers looking at books.
Guess what, i'm in the chinese section. With a malaysian company,
that's selling taiwan and china books.
Gees, that doesn't bode so well for a "kan-tang" ( potatoe ) like me.
Filled with so many books that look so interesting but i can't recognise so
many of the words. But i'm glad i'm still able to converse in chinese,
or else i'm really just a white mash potatoe.
Oh yea, let me mention about this good offer. There's books on cooking and
they're going for $4 and $6 for a small or big book. If you buy 3, it'll be $10 and
$15 respectively.
But what's so special about these cooking books? For one they teach you how to make
Dian Xin and BAOS! Also got one on desert! YUMMY. In fact, all the while i was there
i got soooo hungry just looking at the pictures. All look so apettizing! Then there's this
book that teaches you on 35 egg dishes, and another is diff ways of cooking rice, and
there's even those on noodles and pasta! haha... too bad... i couldn't even recognise some
of the ingredients... think i need to bring a dictionary along if i ever want to cook chinese
dishes.
Anyway if there's anyone interested in cooking, and want to try their hand at chinese
crusine, the fair's on til this sunday 10pm. Look out for CITE publishers near the back of
the hall.
And oh, they even have these sex books there, haha so funny... cos when i turn.. it's all words.
ARGH. But funnily, they seemed to have incorporated english words in to the books.
Makes me wonder if they were actually translated from english in the first place.
Then there's this 3 books, each teaching on different things, first one foreplay and all the kissing
techniques and stuff, then another on orgasms and the last on positions.
Haha.. all so interesting, at least they have some english words that i can recognise.
And the pictures they draw are so funny.
Ok time to go... psycho paper on next wed... been reading, but seems like it's not enough.
Still got so much more to read. Time to mug once again...
hopefully 3-4 days is enough for me to prepare for this. Hope to get a B so that i can continue
taking other psychology subs and get a minor.
