Now people who know me know that I detest starting blogs because I KNOW I'm never committed to updating them. Why start a blog? Live life to the max, and APPRECIATE people and nature and events: Dun sit in your room typing about wats going on when its going on! BUT...."why start this blog?" I hear u. Because in reading several blogs belonging to close friends, my thinking changed. In ways I wanna share...Now then, tat's why people keep blogs. Becos they wanna share, wif frens, wif others, wif the world; to connect, to NOT BE ALONE. Not to allow a sad condition of life to touch them;whether it is a feasible idea or merely an illusion I cannot tell. No one has the answers. All we can do is make the best out of what we have.
So what have I read?I have read about the lives of frens: colourful, energy-filled, bursting with laughter, overflowing with friendship. The start, movement, fall of relationships, the stress of exams, the importance of family,dillusionmet, power of love. All these in the lives of my friends all over the place: Australia, Singapore, UK, CTK. I was touched by Cherry's tribute to the death of her fren; happy for the constant ongoings in Matthew's days; glad to be at Mun's birthday.

Admired: A folly and lie
Aspire: To live or die
Expire.
Belief: In Him I dare not question
Believe: Or fear of rejection
Befall: Come what may, NO!
Be-Fallen.
