My way of holding onto the things I love, the Things I am and the Things I never want to lose...

this is your life, are you who you want to be...



Switchfoot - This Is Your Life

One of my favorite songs I like to listen to when I go jogging for the purpose of clearing my head and to do some thinking. Although I do not know why they did not do a music video for this one.

Anyway this was one song that I sorta used to encourage someone a while back. Cannot remember if I used word for word from the lyrics or just the meaning of it. And now it has come back to encourage me it seems. Really interesting to see things go one full circle. And just as I have been encouraged by it, lets hope by all this it will encourage someone as well.

In some sense, the song asks you: this is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be?

Is what we have now what we wanted it to be? Things happen, we all make mistakes and feeling guilty about it is normal. But its how we deal with them in the end that matters the most. We can let the situation continue to force us into a corner with everything to lose or we can do something about it. It would not be the way we dream it would be, but better than nothing at all.

If I talk anymore, I would be breaking my blogging discipline so I think I will again leave that to livejournal.

Anyway in light of the song, I decided that I have to push on and continue to strive for the best for my fyp. Things happen yes but I will not let that stop me from my work. Sure its taken a delay and to make up for it I decided to go and do what I do best, aim for the highest.

I decided to go with what google has been using as a benchmark. I dun know if I can hit it but knowing Kenneth, I will go all out.


The idea is to generate something that computer programs have a hard time reading so as to generate the answer to the CAPTCHA challenge.

And on a lighter note, met up with Elliott after he had to settle something and Leanna who wanted to get something to eat after her revision for dinner at tampines. Somewhere nearby for all of us.

Went to Illy's again for dinner and this time I decided to try something else. Went with what the 2 of them had the last time, Bangers and Mash while the 2 of them had something called Big Blue Joe.


This time I remembered to take a picture of the food first. Also wanna say thanks to Leanna for helping me finish up my food. Appetite is not back at 100% yet.

And of cos seeing that my appetite is not back to 100% yet, we decided to get some dessert so that I got my sugar for energy intake. And to a friend, dun worry I brushed my teeth properly last night and will be going for my jog later.


My share of dessert. They did not have waffles but they had pancakes. Think the waffle machine was down or something.

And lastly to Elliott for that "interesting" video post over at his blog, titled "Boy I missed your kisses all the time but this is", this is a little something for you.


I wonder what happens when everyone gets to see all these little photos in a nice video montage at the wedding dinner(when it comes)... hehe... but dun worry, having practiced my trade at past events with good responses, I am sure it will be a hit with everyone :D

Cheers,
Kenneth ;)
