as far as i like to be living in the present, i also like to reminisce the past; i just opened my box of memories. literally, the one i keep hidden beneath my stack of backpacks, under my table. first thing i see is the picture of me with my pockets turned out, in the wooden photoframe from audrey. it makes me happy :) i think everything in that box makes me happy.ok. only five minutes has passed and i take that back. the things in the box makes me sad. because they are in the box. the box kept under the table. because they are things from the past. the past that no longer exists. relationships that no longer exist. connections that no longer exist. purpose that no longer exists. and meanings that no longer exist. half the box is filled with words. words that have probably been forgotten. words that no longer show anything. words that no longer hold the same meaning. i wouldnt want to get lost in that world of words.the other half of the box? at first glance, i see pictures, photos, gifts, presents; memorabilia. at second glance, i see relations, values, promises, secrets; connections. at third glance, i see emptyness, vacuous, void, replacements; nothing.if looking at the things in the box could make me feel like how i felt when i first saw them, i will look forever. -shifan-

you know, the thing about scrcy is that you'll come hate it so much but at the same time, you can't help but love it as much. strange isnt it. was reading cara's reflection and i thought about the four years ive been in sc. scrcy was a huge part of my sc life & through this, i've actually met some of the most amazing people i'll ever meet in my life. & the fact that her batch just passsed out just occured to me that it's been quite a while since ive last met up with my crazy level mates and i really do miss them. like a lot a lot. i miss those times we did stupid things i miss those times we stayed up till very very late at night to prepare for ttime. i miss those times we did drills till we died. i miss those times where we came together and complained abt meetings and such. i miss those times where we would just sit together every recess without fail. i miss those times where we suffered and survived through camps together. i miss those times when we cried and laugh with each other. i miss those times where everyone had one common goal and was out to achieve it together. i miss those times where we just all hung out at yak's place eating her food, watching scv, making a lot of noise, bbq-ing and having pool-dunking sessions, sneaking out at night & getting attacked by transverstites. i miss preparing for poc (though it's always a sad occasion). i miss sitting in the room complaining about the ruined old metal cupboards and run-down comp, snatching for the two couches, having spring cleaning sessions cos we're always messing up the room and all.i miss everyone. i miss those times. and yes, i miss scrcy. :(sigh, won't it be nice if the next time we all meet up, EVERYONE in our level can be there? -aud-

well... both of em kinda summarised all my feelings. like really everything.. u noe. its been a long time since i've caught up with my secondary school frens. of course there are exceptions like huibing who i talk to ever so often.. ppl like soling who will confirm keep intouch wif me. ppl like phelicia who tries to meet up wif m e whenever she goes back.. ppl like moo who will send an email once in a blue moon. ppl like ying who will catch up wif me once in a blue moon too. haha. but den again, der are the countless of ppl who i dun talk to anymore. i was just talking to huibing last night about how fast time flies. like the girls who were sec 1s when we were sec 4s are NCOs now. how i wish i could stay n see how they mature and grow. how they change from sec 1s to sec 4s. i somehow still can't believe. i really regret not joining HQ. because i really want to return sth that i got out of my 4 years to scrcy. charles mention that admin is a gift. but i dun think so. i think it is my training from 4 yrs of red cross. the way i do things. ppl say i am capable. i think it is just the kind of character scrcy has instilled in me. though i had my share of unhappy memories from there, but in e end, they can be forgotten. in the end, it is really what you have gotten out of it that makes you who you are today. maybe God wants to use me for something greater. maybe God has a different plan for me. whatever it is, scrcy has really been a blessing. thank you girls.

gosh that was fast. 10 days gone just like that. and to think i tot i juz blogged 2/3 days ago.. the past week has been ok.. quite fun. had cell on thurs.. kinda weird cause i am not used to it. in e end i tot i din haf class e following day. hahs. anw. yea. aft dat friday we went to watch youth alive concert - Adrenaline. itwas good. as in der were alot of different kinds of acts that really catered to the younger generation. just that half the songs we did nnot know.. i guess zion is too hillsongs already.. haha.. yea.. but overall , it was good. guy sabestian was der.. derwere some other dancers that were der as well.. looked like the shane kind of dance. but not the elaine kind of dance lar.. den one of e pastors frm hillsongs *i think* went to preach.. so many came to christ/ rededicated der lives tochrist. that was nice.

on sat.. went for creative arts ministry vision day. we had a speaker. steffie sth.. and i tell u.. she was good. as in her voice lar. if i haf e chance one day, i wanna take lessons from her. seriously. juz dat its prob gonna cost me a bomb... she also did a workshop for all the choir members as well as the vocalist.. it was good lar. juz dat her "minnie mouse" singers were not minnie mice.. dey were e kind that sing very loud and i personally think is abit difficult to blend in wif e choir? hahs. mayb i'm wrong.. been given an impression by like e choirs in singapore dat i mayb stereotyping.. hahs. anw. yea. it ended really late so i left first. edwin was sending jon to uwa, so he sent me to e city first. picked rynetta on e way. we had lunch.. i had subway while rynetta had sushi.. n den we both had a pure n natural smoothie while waiting for our dearest faith yeo..

when she finally came, we went to koorong.. i got presents for dad n mum.. couldn't find anything for elaine though.. rynetta and the biggest "shou huo" she bought so many stuff lar. hahs.. oh when we were der,it was raining and der were puddles of water EVERYWHERE. and guess wad. i was wearing white pants!! gosh.. and a terrible time trying to not walk into the puddles.. anw

we went for service and yea. i sat wif alfred.. cause i tot i saw a hole down der.. and i din wanna sit too high up.. leave those places for those who r really late.. so anw. yea. den ended up beside yanjing as well.. woohoo!! murdoch zone!! haha.. yea. but it was good. aft service... talked to afew ppl, listen to pastor talk, and den yea. we went for dinner lar. at first we din haf enough cars. den max offered his car for charles to drive *thanks max!!* aft dinner. went to tea fusion for bubbletea.. met the kells court girls.. as in usha ailin may n julie. n julie's fren.. yea. it was quite fun. taught em some games.. and yea. i am really amazed. as i see the innocence yet maturity, i dunno how to say, but i am juz so envious at der pure minds.. hahs. yea.. anw. yea dat was pretty much my last week..

oh my goodnes.. word was TERRIBLE.. yea. dorcas said it was ok at e beginning. den i started panicking and i ended up like trembling towards e end and not making sense of myself!! sians. eunice is not fitted to do word. make me do admin stuff, i'd gladly do it.. anything other than that, no thanks.. hmm.. anw. crystal n dorcas both claim its not e last time. but oh well.. i can only dream that it is lar. after cell.. dorcas wanted to go for coffee. but no one was listening. so josh jason ning alvin letitia started playing poker.. while dorcas jeremy n me played monopoly *world cup 2006 version* hahs and i dominated teh whole game! muahahaha. kk *randomness* den aft dat josh walked dorcas back while jeremy n me went back since we stayed near each other..

today..i kinda did nothing in the morning. was really lazy.. went for ushering today.. 4th time ushering in a row.. but at least i do listen to sermons when i usher lar.. yea. curtin plus uwa combine service.. woohoo!! speaker was good man! but a pity. i got quite irritated at like some ppl.. so it wasn't that good after all.. must learn how to control my expressions.. i suck at it.. oh yes. n den that max n charles.. dey were like "yes eunice, what do you want me to do?" but yea. anw. at first told em i no needa help faith dis week. den when i went out n saw dat gal so busy. so i went to help agian. i somehow just can't understand how some people can't do simple things like talk to people and collect names for dinner at the same time. like please. haf u ever seen max not doing his job as a cell leader talking to members n visitors? like no. and yet he can give the list of names super fast. like pls. can't you guys just have some sense of urgency? hahs.. maybe we should all send them to undergo scgs red cross training.. no need for like ncc or npcc.. red cross is enough. then u get results like me *oops* hahs. yea. but honestly.. i just dun understand. ok. second thing *though this happened first* like i can't stand it when ppl dun think dey can learn anything from what they do. pls. ego at work! maybe it is good that i am wif dis cell eh? i dunno.. i still like the tuart girls *out of point* but yea. bad attitude. and i cannot stand such attitude.. like rynetta's attitude.. willing to learn. even myself i am trying to learn each time i do sth frm those more experienced than i am. but honestly, if you don't bother trying to learn.. i dun see any point in putting effort in you. waste of my time. shoo. go away. and another one oso.. escaping services.. gosh. mayb shld tok to dorcas abt this. mayb more appropriate.. but yea. one starts, all follows. den u see a whole group of ppl lingering downstairs. no comments. worse thing is. you are my responsibility. gosh.

ok. that was ALOT of ranting. ignore if it doesn't make sense. woohoo. i needa go running!! *randomness* i am suppose to be sleeping! hahs. tmr is working day. muz do work!!
