i went for the student leader's campfire last night, had a wharf! of a time. it's good to see all the juniors having sucha a good time together, it reminds me of our term. now, we know the school is in good hands (: haha it's like leaving a legacy behind. lol, that sounds cliche. but nevermind.

this long long very very long long holiday has been a real cool rollercoaster ride (: i've never had a better time in my life, from taking a honeymoon in pjc meeting new friends, hanging out with the OC, WSI, all those free time to shop, catch movies, have tea and meeting up ol' friends, going white water rafting, church camp, to having band practises. it's the longest break i ever had! the best really. practically from november till june. tt's 7 months of holidays. it feels so good. ((: i've never really met so many ppl in 7 mnths before, it made me realise how small this world really is. IT'S A SMALL SMALL WORLD. you'll never know who's a friend of your friend or if that auntie you sat with on the bus is your distant relative. does that mean everyone is realted in one way or another? shaun says there's this theory that everyone is connected in 6 degrees. possible? maybe.

but oh well, all good things must come to an end.

after this long long very very long long break, i'm gonna start school. finally! next friday, 1st of july 2005, 9am to be exact. and for the next four years i'll be dwelling in LaSalle SIA college of the arts. i'm quite thrilled, yet at the same time apprehensive. this arty farty school seems like the best place to be, i mean where else but this place to nuture creativity? yet, i don't know what expected, i mean heck, it's an arts school, it'll run differently from other schools right. "UNEXPECTED" seems scary now. lol, especially the people. all i can imagine, 100s of eccentric shauns. haha, maybe that's exaggerating.

i just read claris blog, and she says she's amazed by how i like to defy myself just to be happy, and take a step into the design industry. which is a really small competitive industry. [that wasn't her exact words, but yeah it was somewhere along those line]

am i not afraid of what lies in my future?

well dear, the truth is i am. and it dawned upon me not too long ago, i believe that god has a plan for me, and no matter what i do, i want everything and anything i do to be god centered. i want to live a god-centred life. i can just take a step blindly everyday, knowing that god does have a plan for me, and that he'll guide me through. AND in the end, everything will fall into place nicely. not my will, but god's will.
yes dear, the arts industry in small and competitive. but so is every job, every job is equally gruelling is it not? and if i have to work hard. i might as well enjoy myself while i'm at it. as mum always says, if you love your job, you'll never have to work a day in your life. ultimately, that's all i want. money doesn't drive me that much anymore.

((: i'm attempting to make my post more colourful. lol. does it work this way?

*awww man, i think my evil devious scheming plan to make everyone hungry when they visit my blog has backfired. now i feel hungry everytime i look at all those delicious cookies.

I thought it was seven degrees.

cheryl, really, I applaud you. You're going to be one of the few women I know who is ever so strong and unwavered. And to me, a great friend.

I wish you all the best in Lasalle; sadly and maybe regrettably, I won't be joining you. but im trying to make the most out of me. you do too.

remember. do NOT start this journey with trepidation. (but from what I see i guess youre entirely sure and positive)

love. shaun.
