M204

Marcus Aurelius: There was a dream that was Rome. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish, it was so fragile.

Gladiator (2000)

There was a dream that was M204. It was barely a dream, a mere fragment of a dream... It was so fragile you couldn't even think about it... anything more then a moment's thoughts on it and it would vanish it.. don't even speak it out for it would break apart at the mere mention of the dream...
Everywhere we go, people all around us look and wonder... who are these people, that break the records of sports in IMU cup, that break the records for studies and examinations, that break the records for kindness, charity and activities within and without IMU.. who are these... champions?

Today, we the batch of M204, will be crowned champions of the IMU Cup... AGAIN... for the first time in IMU history... a batch has succesfully won the IMU cup in sem 3 and defended it in sem 5... who are we?... we, are M204, the batch of legends, the batch that there will never ever be another like it, the batch that makes history... but most of all... we are a batch of friends... a batch... of unity... that is why, that is how and that is for whom we have succeeded...

Go M204, Sem 5's of 2006...
Fight like champions, win like champions...
And all the rest can go fly kite..

Haha... cool post eh... emma, ask hailiang if he wants to put this in convo mag lah... this was a moment of inspiration...

Legacy

i haven't posted songs in quite a while, but its never too late to start again...
this song... it's meaningful...

Legacy- Nichole Nordeman


I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
And you can take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all the Who's Who's and So-and-So's
That used to be the best at such and such
It wouldn't matter much

I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an "Atta boy" or "Atta girl"
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world

I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love?
Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace
Who blessed Your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy

I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthy list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon
enough destroy

I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love?
Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace
Who blessed Your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy

Not well-traveled, not well-read
Not well-to-do, or well-bred
Just want to hear instead
Well done, good and faithful one

I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love?
Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace
Who blessed Your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy

I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me

CNS

hmm... this is too fast for me...
it seems like only last week that we started MSK, and now it's CNS alredi...
too fast, too fast...
well... susah lah... end of year's coming up... EOS coming up... and everybody seems to want me to do something in december... christmas, wedding, PA... alamak...
examlah... can't i just... study...
cis... now i sound like nerd...

anyway, to increase my nerdiness... i've found a website that let's you read books for free... of course... it's books older than 70 years whose copy right has... luputed... yah... books like.. Gray's Anatomy (yalah, applies to medic student only) The Complete Works of Shakespeare... ala, all those olden classic with english that sounds like tamil... heh, currently reading Pilgrim's Progress... but... progress is slow...
come on... who comes online to read books...

choices

to be human is to live with choices...
when we make choices that lead to sin... we become less than human...
when we make choices that lead to God... we become more than human...

the very thing that characterizes humanity is our ability to live and to make choices...
sometimes those choices may be wrong... sometimes they may be right... but to be human is to have the freedom to make those choices...
Thus, each choice we make is an opportunity... either to glorify God, or to sin and glorify ourselves... temptations, can then can be seen as opportunities to glorify God, and not situations that force us into sin... it is curious, that we sometimes we only learn how to make right choices... after we've made the wrong one...

no-one can be forced into making a choice that they don't wish to.. circumstances and people may make us think otherwise, but freedom of choice is something that we can only take away from ourselves... if we choose to...

found

oh... heh.. i found my watch... it was at home all the while...
besides that, i also found some other stuff that had been missing for a while...
