holidays?

This holidays have passed by so quickly... mostly has been catching up on sleep... and probably getting sleepier from doing nothing hehe. I don't think i've achieved much but i'm gonna treasure all this bumming and sleeping and relaxing time =) because the next few weeks of uni will be crazy assignmenting~!
Anyway... I've been thinking for the last few weeks... with all the stuff happening around the world... what people would do if they knew their life was about to end? If they just knew about what would happen in the future, would they change how they lived? I'd say yes. at BLT we had this similar topic... and its just a stark reminder to us all that we only do have one life, and that one life is getting closer to an end every day. Some people will say... "live life to the full!" and that's true to a certain extent... but my thoughts are (and you can debate this) that you should "use time wisely, and take any opportunities given". How would you feel if tomorrow your best friend disappeared, and today you're debating/argueing with him/her over silly issues? I know i'd feel so so so bad. Everything seems to feel a bit different with that in mind. That's why its so important to have a big smile ^____^ on your face, always being happy^^, never letting arguements come between you and your friends, and settling them as soon as possible.
I found this poem a long time ago, and some of you might know it... but it really affected me... made me really think about the way i act and stuff..

Some quotes I blogged more than a year ago... how true they are...
"Some people are so special that once they enter your life, if becomes richer and fuller and more beautiful than you ever thought it could be."

"Love puts the fun in together...
the sad in apart...
the hope in tomorrow...
the joy in a heart."
The past two weeks have been so busy and crazy... I just can't wait til the mid-semester break. I just want some time to take things in... and not be stressed about a certain 60% assignment that we left til 2 weeks before due date! Amidst the busy and crazy times... many good... great things have happened^^ and I feel the best i have felt in ages and ages~
On a slightly different topic... MC has been recording the past few worship services, and he's been sending the mp3's of the songs out. Ironically... his first mp3 recording was of *drumrolls*... ME -_____- and the second recording had *drumrolls* ME again *sigh*... I've been listening to my awful singing this past week.
Work was really weird today... started at 9 so i went out at 8 cos i thought traffic would be really bad... but suprisingly it took me the same time +5 mins to get there. So i sat in my car and daydreamed for 30 minutes. When work started.. i heard sirens... and apparently there was a bad fire at woolworths down the road >< ... Also got some good badminton contacts during work ^^ but otherwise it was a boring boring work day -_____- i was so happy when i finished ^^ :P
anyway i'll stop rambling about nothing
bye bye =P

"Triple" Towers

Check out this new design for the WTC ground zero site! It has been designed by three famous architects: Sir Norman Foster, Lord Richard Rogers and Fumihiko Maki. The design has been approved and will be built between 2007 and 2012, and all three buildings spiral down to the WTC memorial at ground zero. It looks pretty good...

Spring Boredness

*yawn* It's spring! well I've been caught up in assignments and I have no clue what to blog...so i decided to check out some old emails and copy paste them here:

When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that
ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion developing a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 300'C.

The Russians used a pencil...
