if only know how i truly felt all this while.
all the thoughts running through my mind.
just how many times i wanted to give up.
how many times i wanted to let go.
this you never once realised.
this you will never know.
i'm tired of asking.
trying to drop the hint.
if only you realised why.
if only you understood what runs through my mind.
if only you understood me more.
if only you were willing to stop running things as per your own ideas only and perhaps open up to those not of your thoughts and mindsets.
if only does not happen.
if only will not happen.
if only you knew.
if only i knew what to do.
if only i didnt feel like this every other day.
what do you know. really. what do you see.

And I love the horse carriages and parks :)
Day 3, Poland
21:00 Krakow
Visited the famous salt mines! The main chapel was beyond beautiful :D pretty cool experience :) even tried the salt water underground. Tasted like bleaugh but of well we tried :p the people here are really great and helpful! Full marks for Poland thus far :) ran back to main town cos we got special tickets to go visit the new krakow underground museum which is supposedly very difficult to get a chance to go. Not too bad :) pretty insightful though they had a couple of spelling and grammatical errors :x dinner at an underground locals hangout restaurant was a great find! Really food food at decent prices! We're totally coming back :) my wiener schnitzel was awesome max! Beers are damn cheap in this side of the world!

Day 4, Poland
21:00, krakow
Breakfasted at our favourite bahery and took a look at the local market :) Took out first tour ever at the auswich-biernkau camps; the famous nazi camps. Extremely good tour guide. Very very knowledgable with good English :) yeah I like :) the scariest part of the campsites were that they looked so ordinary from outside. Who would have guessed the atrocities that had happened inside. And the gas chambers and all... And how they used the human hairs from the gassed humans to make mats socks etc. The nazis are pretty sick pple :s tried fried broccoli from macs. Quite nice. Its served with sour cream. Visited the famous st Mary's church and Followed it up with a nice dinner at the underground restaurant :)
Day 5, Poland

woke up with flowers next to me in bed <3 hehe :):):) Poland is cool. At night, one of their trams is converted to a club. Party on wheels around krakow. How cool is that :) had breakfast at the bakery again and shopped at the local market. Damn cheap. ran back to wawel castle to visit the cathedral museum and climbed up to sigmund's bell to make a wish :) also visited the pope john Paul museum there.

Day 6, Poland
10:15, krakow-zakopane
Breakfasted for the last time at our fav bakery :) headed out to take the bus to zakopane. Crazy rain made it too cold for us to take the cable car up to see the border between Poland and Slovakia :( explored zakopane town in the cold :( found a really good flea market and an upside-down but still functional house :p gelato was good as always and dinner was awesome at a grill restaurant :)
Day 7, Poland
21:00, zakopane
Trekked a super cold snow filled route up to lake morsie oko! Great experience with stunning sights! GEW'd love the crazy number of trekking paths they have with widely varying difficulties :) lunched in a small shack by the lake. took a horse carriage down :) coolios! Haven't had a house carriage ride in real terrain before :p headed back to town after all the trekking to defrost :p had our last polish dinner at a polish grill restaurant famous for their grilled trout :p and then it's back to packing for our cross border to Slovakia tmr :p

elections
and so we finally got a chance to vote (except for the tanjong pagar-ians)...
finally a chance to voice our opinions, a chance to do our part to shape the future of Singapore.
however, admist all the elections hypes and fuores, how many can really say that they made clear well grounded well thought through votes?
too many pple just jumping on the bandwagon, voting for candidates because it's cool and everyone's doing it. please think before voting. we're not out there voting for fun. we're voting for our future.
look at the policies. yes you can complain about them. you can always pick out the problems in the plans. there is no perfect plan. do you really think that the government hasn't pre-empted most of these problems already? I'm sure they have, and just like you, they don't have a perfect solution to it either.
so unless you're able to not just pin point problems, but to also start brain storming and coming out with sound ideas, my vote stays put. we need pple with different view points and logical ideas. not just whiners.
and so we welcome ltk, sylvia and csm, but we lost George and chiam in the process. two of the best ministers with the heart and sincerity :( if only we could have them all :(

Monday, January 03, 2011
and so we have welcomed in 2011.
2010 has been an interesting one.
many ups and perhaps even more downs.
many tests. many questions. many trials and tribulations.
but still we all got through it.
what 2011 will bring will be even more interesting in a different sense.
2011 will be the mark of great changes.
transition from university undergrads to graduates
from the carefree lives we spend to joining the tax paying community.
everyone will start to go in their own directions.
who knows when we will meet again.
2011 will be a trial for the greatest of friendships.
i for one have never been able to manage this well.
when the work piles buildup, it is difficult to make time.
but i'm learning. and i'll keep trying.
because even though i never speak of it, each friendship means a lot to me.
so if you suddenly start hearing more from me, i hope we reignite the times we had together in the past, no matter how different our current circumstances have become.
tested and weathered. i hope our friendships last. i hope they're strong enough to brave the storms ahead.
2011 will be tough. very tough.
but, with faith and strength, we will get through.
THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD
The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want;
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters;
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil;
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life;
and I shall dwell in the house of the
Lord forever.
Psalm 23
