Yesterday I watched a movie, "Camp Rock" on TV3. It's quite interesting. More importantly, it's liked by the youngsters, me included...lol
Here are some soundtracks used in the movie.
"We Rock"
"This Is Me"
Yea, how's it like listening to these 2 songs? Personally, I like them equally much. The first song is very entertaining and relaxing. Listening to it helps especially when you are in the midst of tremendous pressure and loads of problems. Yea, it's very true. Sometimes, we do need to unwind the tensed up condition of our head. Turn on the music, sing your hearts out and perhaps, shake your body and dance along. It surely helps.
The second song is truly inspiring. It kinda boosts up self esteem listening to it. Well, as suggested by the song lyrics, reflect on ourselves, look for the vast pools of potentials inside us and develop them. Some people are good in sports, others might have a great business or scientific mind. We just gotta find the place where we belong. Then only we can soar our way up beyond the limits in our own arena. Ganbatte!

2009 Teacher's Day
Today is our Teacher's Day celebration at school level. It's held earlier this year.
Initially, i thought the performances were not going to be interesting, considering the little time allocated for the preparations.
Well, I must say I am wrong. The students put up quite some hilarious and nice shows.
There were a performance from the chinese orchestra group of our school, a hip-hop dance and a very special, unique dance that displayed a combination of Indian and hip-hop cultures. haha... This dance really made the crowd burst into laughter.
Too bad, I did not record it.
Well, this is the last year i celebrate Teacher's Day in our school. i somehow felt touched actually. In the middle of the event, my mind went wandering to the moment of our coming graduation day end of this year. During the Graduation Day in Form 5, i did feel sad about leaving the school and a group of friends. Now that i stay on for an additional two years, i think my heart had grown fonder of the environment and some teachers here and i will feel even more reluctant having to leave this school. i did disagree with some of the systems implemented, but i still love this my school after all. Just like how we still love our parents after all their naggings and blames on us.
After the rather grand celebration in the school hall, our class also prepared a special celebration for our teachers. For documentation purpose, they are Pn Hong (Maths), Pn Suraini(P.A.), Pn. Vijaya(Chem) Pn. Zahariah(Bio), Mr. Tay(P.A.) and Mr. Tiong(MUET). Delight is clearly written all over their faces when we wished them happy teacher's day and proceeded with the cake-cutting session. A porcelain cup is our gift to each of them.
Well, I really expressed my gratitude to them, from the very bottom of my heart. They are truly good teachers. Some of them even go the extra miles and educate us to be a better person. I don't attend tuition at all in Form 6, except for P.A. --- i have no implied meaning, don't get me wrong! lol
Speaking of teaching, I have a perception about the teaching profession. This thought struck me while listening to Pn. Wong speech today. A teacher's job is not to teach, but to educate. There are differences between teaching and educating. Teaching simply means disseminating the technical information according to the syllabus set. But educating means more than that. It encompasses the responsibility to show students the right ways in life and guide them to becoming better men in future. Teachers should always inculcate positive values and habits in students, like moving on in adversity and thinking out of the box.
To those pursuing a teacher's career, remember to always educate your students. Motivate your students. Mould them into better men. They are the ones going to lead the world. Held in them are the chance and hope to see a better world in the future!
There will be no future without teachers. We are nothing without them. Teachers are great, but they just do it in silence. They educate us, shape us, and equip us with a pair of invisible wings together with the ability to fly. All they ask for in return is to see us soaring high and beyond the sky. Our teachers might not remember us, but we should appreciate them for what they have done for us and always remember them. No matter how high we fly, make landing once in a while to pay them a visit. Just like what we should do to our parents.
PS: Thank you teachers. Happy Teacher's Day! The best gift to a teacher: Still remembering them and saying thank you to them after 10 years when we have achieved great heights in life. I will do that!
*Here's a good song you may have listened to before. Just to feed your soul. Jia you!

These few weeks had been so hectic for me. Practically every day, I go home only after 4pm. I kind of regret involving myself in the committee members of several clubs last year. And that actually eats part of my revision time. Well, right or wrong, it's my choice. I have to take 100% responsibility on it. I will try my best to manage my time well, grab hold of every seconds and utilise time to the maximum. One important thing is to cut down on the time spent to go online.
And this also means I might blog less frequently. Anyway, if an overwhelming feeling and inspiration come flooding into my mind, most probably I will head straight to my computer and blog.
From a motivational book I ever read, I learn to take full accountability and responsibility on our decisions in life. At junctures in life, we might make a wrong choice. But that's the road taken. Instead of grumbling about the hurdles and curdles along the way, we should learn to terms with the fact: We make the wrong move. We should go on and never give up. In fact, it's the thorns and prickles that make us tougher.
Embrace the difficulties and enjoy the process of overcoming them. Enjoy what we have got. Change what seems as an adversity into an opportunity that makes us a better man.
I have-via the e-mail-come across a sentence that sounds something like this:
Coffee powder, in hot water, melts and gives nice aroma. The coffee powder has totally changed the difficult environment it's in.
In face of difficulties, some people frown and cease trying after several failures. Some get very tough, but they end up smiles-deprived. They manage to work out many problems but are not really happy about all those obstacles in life. Then we have the third type of people who behave like the coffee powder. They take the challenge happily and enjoy life's stumbling blocks. They eventually come out as the winner, filled with the satisfaction and joy of overcoming problems.
It's not easy to be the third type of people, but we can do it. Change our perception and believe in ourselves.
Changing the face changes nothing, but facing the change changes everything.
See things from the bright side. An optimistic outlook of life shows happiness and unfolds the stairways to the heavenly destination. So , start seeing the world with a whole new 'eye'.
Today at a ceremony, I saw many high-achievers that really shine. This year, we have two recipients for the Anugerah Mutiara. Once, I had a thought of coming up with a real breakthrough in physics and get recognised as the most intelligent person on earth. Even more intelligent than the one and only Albert Einstein. Looking back, now only I see how naive I was once. The world is full of highly-intelligent people. We have so many child prodigies, for instance in music or Maths. How are we to judge who is more intelligent? Different individuals actually have different aspects of intelligence, as suggested by the research on "Multiple Intelligence". Well, Albert Einstein might be the cream of the crop in the Physics world. But we might be far better than him in other areas. Well, if so then who is more intelligent?
There are billions of talents out there. And even more is to come. Only at today's ceremony, there are already so many top-scorers present. How are we to be better than the rest of the world in each and every area? Perhaps, the right thing to do is to get better than what we were yesterday. And I now see it this way, I suppose. But my dream to do research and make breakthroughs never fades. I still want to create medical breakthroughs to help those suffering from illness or health conditions. Wow! I admit I am ambitious, but anything is possible.
I have my dreams. And I will work towards accomplishing these dreams.
PS: Find your way! Dream and make the dreams come true.

This while, I get interested in playing with words and coming up with some meaningful sentences. I usually put those sentences as my MSN display message. Anyway, those messages are quite meaningful and thought-provoking, hopefully it may inspire you.
>>
Every one of us dreams of possessing this thing called 'happiness'. Some think they can only be happy after they get to the peak, others enjoy the process and get happy through the journey. Well, let's see....
If happiness could be formulated, I want to be the one to discover the formula. But we all know it very well that this formula cannot be devised. It varies from one to another.
In fact, the formula to being happy has long existed, yet is hidden in our heart.
We ourselves are the formula.
It's not that tough to be happy and stay happy.
如果幸福一定要有个定义，它将比1+1=2更简单。
Open up your heart and look around. Happiness is always in the air, if we feel it with all our heart and soul.
A chipped glass does not seem to be chipped if we look at it from another angle.
Just change our perception, and we will see before us a whole new world.
No matter how happy or sorrow we feel, life remains there to live. So, why not live life happily? Take on whatever challenge there is in life with a smile from the bottom of our heart, and we will smile and shine through adversity.
寻寻觅觅，兜兜转转，其实幸福就在眼前。 做人癫一癫，笑一笑，幸福快乐永远围绕你。
与其苦着脸过生活， 不如笑度人生吧！
While you are reading the following, do listen to this song.
很多人都在期待现实中出现虚幻的童话。 也有不少人殷勤地希望能看到人间的天堂。 就连歌曲也有唱出对童话跟天堂的盼望。 或许一首歌能惊醒梦中人，抑或激起人们心中的火种。
但也许很多人都忘了，其实童话与天堂一直都在我们心中。 童话不曾放弃我们，只不过是我们遗忘了它。天堂一直跟随我们，只不过是我们把双眼望得太高太远，只看见遥不可及的天堂，心中的天堂却视而不见。
就算世界没有童话，心中的童话从不消逝。 就算世界没有童话，让我们创造童话吧。童话般的现实，不是遥不可及，而是近在眼前。静心体会，就会感觉到心中的童话了。
真心的付出，简单的幸福，朴素的快乐，其实就是天堂的一种体现。
在这污浊的时代里，单纯的小孩们依然坚信童话跟天堂的存在。
或许，单纯是开启心中的童话与天堂的钥匙吧。
单纯一些，世界会更美好一些。
依然是那句，加油加油！ 勇敢地去发掘心中的童话，心中的天堂吧！

I'm possible
I watched "Barbie and The Diamond Castle" today. I don't really fancy this kind of movie, but after giving myself a chance for the show, I felt the movie was rather meaningful and interesting. Well, you won't know until you try.
Believe in all that can be.
Here's the soundtrack （Title:Believe) for that movie. This song is quite meaningful and motivating.
And these are the lyrics to the song:
Hidden beneath the ground, is a spring that feeds the creek,
Invisible as the wind,
That you feel upon your cheek,
And every breeze that whispers,
Reminds us constantly,
Sometimes what's real is something you can't see...
Believe... in all that can be,
A miracle starts whenever you dream,
Believe, and sing from your heart,
You'll see,
Your song will hold the key...
Waiting behind the clouds,
Is the sky that's always clear,
And chasing away the doubts,
You watch the sun appear,
It's shining to remind you,
As each new day begins,
There's always hope if you just let it in...
Believe... in all that can be,
A miracle starts whenever you dream,
Believe, and sing from your heart,
You'll see,
Your song will hold the key...
You can paint the stars,
You can touch the sky,
Spread your wings and discover you can fly (and sing from high),
You won't know until you try...
Believe... in all that can be,
A miracle starts whenever you dream,
Believe, and sing from your heart,
You'll see,
Your song will hold the key...
Oooh-ooh, believe, and dream what can be,
Ask with your heart,
And you will receive.
Believe, the beauty is yours to see,
Your song will hold the key...
Oooh-oooh...
(When you) Believe...
Beli-eve...
When you believe...
Ohhh, believe...
If you are a regular reader of my blog, you will see that I always write about miracles, dreams and believing in ourselves. I suppose this goes well with the theme of my blog, INSPIRING.
But the reason on top of that is because I do believe in miracles.
I believe that I can accomplish my dreams and ambition.
I believe that I can see and find true love.
Some may throw a teasing look or sarcastic remarks, others may pour one whole big pale of cold water. But those things are what I believe in.
"Believe in all that can be, a miracle starts whenever you dream."
Dreams will come true when we believe. Because once we start believing, we will work towards what we believe in.
Nothing is impossible. Because "Impossible" is composed of "I'm possible".
In fact, if it's not happening now, I won't believe that I am blogging on the second day of Chinese New Year. Well, you won't know until you try.
PS: Happy Chinese New Year! 祝大家新年快乐，心想事成！加油加油加油！

Some scribbles....
It's 2009!
My first blog post in this new year....
Well, it's very true that a piece of good work needs inspirations. I guess it's the same with blogging. I was actually looking for the feelings of blogging and some inspirations before I started writing this post.
One of my ways to search for thought-provoking ideas is by listening to music. These days, I listen to music quite always. Perhaps, without me knowing it, music has become a part of my life.
Now, I don't listen only to Jay Chou's songs, but I start varying the music ｔｈａｔ Ｉ enjoy. These are the few songs I like:
走火入魔 by 阿信， 叮当
Inside Your Heaven by Carrie Underwood
Try listening to the second song. A nice one.
I always feel soothed and relaxed when listening to these songs. The feeling is like my heart and soul being touched and gripped by a sense of calmness and serenity. Sometimes, a tinge of sadness mingles in the heart too.
When I feel unhappy, those songs can heal, or hurt me even more deeply. Yet, I always go on listening to those songs, without any good reasons to do so. People say all our emotions and feelings are governed by the actions of chemicals like hormones and neurotransmitters in our body. That's absolutely true. However, do you want to control our emotions artificially using chemical injections? Do we want to stop the natural control of our feelings. If we use chemical to control everything from our illnesses to even our feelings and intelligence, is there any difference then, between humans and robots, except that we are made of real flesh while they are created from metals? Or should we label ourselves as robotic humans? Science has got explanations and theories for thousands and thousands of things. But these theories are not necessary to put to practice.
Theories are not discovered to be misused. Inventions are not created to be abused. Just like the case of discovering radioactivity. People misuse it in atomic and nuclear bomb. Is this the things and effects we want to see from the advancement of technology? Is this the way things should be? What has become of the world we are living in? The environment is bad, the people are not as good as the previous generations are.
We don't have the power to turn back clock, but we can always make a U-turn and head back to the right tracks in life. You can get diverted from the mainstream, but don't get off what you think is right in your heart and soul.
Well, I am sorry to have written so many things. These come out from a sudden thought of mine. Perhaps, this is the good thing about blogging. You can 'type' your thought freely.
Upper 6 life is getting busier. I had been very much on the go weeks ago finishing our group assignment. That's the first time I truly felt the hectic life in Form 6. It's like facing waves of tsunami that time. I stayed up till 1.30am in my friend's house to complete the assignment. I fell sick and still attended school, because I didn't want to miss classes. I joked to keep my spirits up, talked nonsense so as to alleviate the uncomfortable feelings, and laughed to get rid of sleepiness. Yet, some said I have taken steroids. Well, I have got no comment on that.
Be life-confident. That's what our MUET teacher told us. Be confident in what we undertake. No doubt, confidence is the element that we need in order to bring the best out of us. To build confidence, first feel confident, and think of being confident. This brings us to the law of attraction. If you think you can, you are generating a frequency saying 'I CAN' to the cosmic universe. The frequency is then amplified and transmitted back to you. And you will manage to do what you wanna do.
Though life is hectic now, this is the opportunity for me to learn and pick up skills. It's the time to train my endurance, sharpen my abilities and polish my skills. It's a challenge to embrace. A challenge to take. And I would say, "Let's get down to it. Bring it on!" I will come through this challenge, be a better man, hold my head high and realise my dreams.
Because I believe, I achieve!
PS: Be life-confident! Be the only one! Just do it!

If you think you can, you are generating a frequency saying 'I CAN' to the cosmic universe. The frequency is then amplified and transmitted back to you. And you will manage to do what you wanna do.
Though life is hectic now, this is the opportunity for me to learn and pick up skills. It's the time to train my endurance, sharpen my abilities and polish my skills. It's a challenge to embrace. A challenge to take. And I would say, "Let's get down to it. Bring it on!" I will come through this challenge, be a better man, hold my head high and realise my dreams.
Because I believe, I achieve!
PS: Be life-confident! Be the only one! Just do it!

Be happy!
These few days, I got stuck in some problems. Those problems outwitted me before this. I was totally confused and puzzled in my own thinking. Perhaps, it's simply because I think too much. And I have been quite bored these days at home. My mind was thus occupied by unnecessary and complicating thoughts.
I was quite upset and feeling down these few days, especially yesterday. I can't get myself out of the bewilderment set by my own self. I was completely blank and clueless. CLUELESS!
But, today I have been able to untie the knot in my heart. I am off all those puzzles. I am free from all those stuff. haha... I am really glad to blog about this. I do want to shout out loud, laugh out loud and do everything a happy man will do. The feeling is so good and different from my feelings yesterday.
It's after I played basketball with my 5K classmates that I realised this "happiness". In fact, it's very simple to be happy. Just --------- BE HAPPY!!!
:)
:P

The key to being happy is to think happy and be happy.
Your emotions and feelings are largely governed by your thinking. So, do not think about the things that upset you. Look back on some cheerful events and the fun you ever had. Look for something to do and be focused on the task.
We want to turn grief to joy, frowns to smiles and cry to laughter. But it depends on us to do that. So, get up and move on happily.
There are many other meaningful questions for us to ponder on. Why spoil our day by thinking of those problems. Especially for teenagers, we tend to reflect on the relationship with our friends over and over again. Or perhaps, some will consider their love problems. Don't think too much, the best solution is to work it out (but only after a little bit of consideration on the way to handle the problem...haha).
Listen to some cheerful songs when feeling down.
The following song for example:
Here's a saying: "If a problem can be solved, then don't worry about it; if a problem can't be solved, what's the use of worrying?"
No doubt, we often worry as long as we haven't worked out a problem. That's very normal. But, try not to get too worried of it. Instead of uselessly consuming energy on worrying, why not utilise our energy to think about the solution and do some prayers, so that the problems can be fixed well? Do remember to turn to our own GOD when we encounter some tough obstacles.
A nature's law is that we reap what we sow. We take what we give. Our sincerity and effort would pay off certainly, perhaps in an imperceptible way.
So, when we really give what it takes, we would, in one day, take back what we have given.
Have you smiled today?
Be happy!!

Kiss The Rain
I came across this song while surfing the net. I like it the first time I listened to it. The melody is very nice and catchy. It arouses my sadness, yet soothes me. It's comfortable and sentimental.
'Kiss The Rain' by a South Korean piano music composer, Yiruma.
Below is the melody sung with lyrics. I don't think the lyrics are the original lyrics of the song, but together, they make a very sentimental song.
Here's the lyrics:
VRS1
I often close my eyes
And I can see you smile
You reach out for my hand
And I'm woken from my dream
Although your heart is mine
Its hollow inside
I never had your love
And I never will
CHORUS
And every night
I lie awake
Thinking maybe you love me
Like I've always loved you
But how can you love me
Like I loved you when
You can't even look me straight in my eyes
VRS 2/3
I've never felt this way
To be so in love
To have someone there
Yet feel so alone
Aren't you supposed to be
The one to wipe my tears
The on to say that you would never leave
The waters calm and still
My reflection is there
I see you holding me
But then you disappear
All that is left of you
Is a memory
On that only, exists in my dreams
CHORUS
VRS 4
I don't know what hurts you
But I can feel it too
And it just hurts so much
To know that I can't do a thing
And deep down in my heart
Somehow I just know
That no matter what
I'll always love you
VRS 1
So why am I still here in the rain..
