Randoms

Hmm....its nearly 1am, not a normal time for me (I am an early sleeper)

Blurness rocks.

I wish many things could happen,but wishing for them isn't enough.

Sigh...

Too many things happening...

Why must tuition go on for 4 hours?!

Crazy.

What else?

Maybe a illegible tangent of my infinite well of intangible matter?

I knew you would say "ERrrrrrr or Wa or "..." "

Lo, many would stand strong,
The winds of the south, they push ever harder,
Some would face the wind, some would seek shelter,
Some, would just whimper and faulter,

The wind, as strong as it may,
Creating havoc, not a time, a place, a day,
For the winds, they are not everlasting,
As the strength , of the one with hands ever rising.

This one, bold and mighty it may seem,
But behold, as normal as the next the one may be,
A fallow, a flaw, all too familiar for the man,
But has he what others are lacking, the courage in hand.

Sleepy post FTW.

With that, Good Morning!

Self thought

What is life, if its not to be lived,
What is living, if its not to be experienced,
What is experience, if its not to be learnt,
What is learning, if its not to be remembered,
What is remembering, if it has already been forgotten,
So truly, what is life is it is to be forgotten,
Drowned in its own self righteousness, struggling to be remembered,
Lost in this sea of memories.

What are memories, if they arent lived?
Are they merely figments of ones imagination?
Made by the feeble mind to reign over ones own body,
Caught in a spiral of selfishness,
Lost in this sea of thoughts.

What are thoughts, if they arent of the mind,
What is a minds thoughts, and what is a thought of mind,
Are they the same? Parallel in likeness, going hand in hand,
Or are they different? Lateral in thought, never to meet again,
So, what are they, truly? Where are they going?
All of this, lost in my sea of self thought.

Is the mind a sentience of its own?
Connected to the body, but seperate in entities?
What of the soul? Is it a part of the body, but only by birth?
To what degree truly are we free? Oh how my soul yearns for a truce,
between body and brain, soul and spirit, earthly and heavenly.
Lost in my own thoughts, once again I come to the same conclusion,
Nothing is as its seem, and follow your heart, and follow God.

What is a person, without God leading them?
A lost soul, like a wayward sheep, having apparent freedom, but lost entirely.
The world, the cruel world, having found the sheep, brings it into itself.
A wayward sheep, a part of the world, a part of iniquity.
As I ponder longer and longer, I wonder to myself, what made a person lose that connection?
Did God forsake them? Were they misguided? The poor unfortunate soul.

Verily, to leaders of organisations, truly I say,
what is of the body if the brain is not awake?
A weak, feeble body, incapable of anything but self pity and morose.

This, a warning I heed to all, even more so to leaders of governments and churches!
Protect your flock! Protect your people!
What is there in a human if there is not a body but a greedy brain?
The bodily needs, all taken upon itself, until the body is an atrophied being,
Lifeless,powerless, and full of vengeance, for trusting in the brain, having been destroyed by the ones they trusted, seeking solace with their own enemies,
For fear of itself have become greater than the fear of the wicked ones.

This is why many seek refuge in this world, why many seek other powers,
The people are just sheep! It is the shepherds duty to watch over them!
The Great Shepherd has done his part, but the task has fallen to shepherds whom are still sheep.
For if a sheep will lead a sheep, then surely I say that both shall be lost asunder.
So, again, heed my request, be a leader to men, and a shepherd to your sheep,
Just like how, The Great Shepherd has done, for you.

A Temporary Farewell

Haha, its been awhile hasnt it? I just realised how many people have left Penang to furthur their studies...so, this song is a tribute to the said people, my friends and not so friends..a first JJS Original Song!

Because it was done kinda in a hurry, voice was really teribble, never EVER use a cheap headset (in fact, never use ANY headset) to record vocals...I bet you ppl are gonna be in a fit of laughter at 0:14 xD.

This goes out to all, i mean ALL, the people i know, even if its only your name I know :)

Enjoy!

An Exciting March Credits

Credits to my teaching instructer, Mr.Aang, and if anyone is looking for a driving instructor out there, near Jelutong/Perak Road/Greenlane, go to his place! Jaya Driving School, near Jelutong Market.

Kudos to all my friends I met during the lessons and the tests days, you guys made my day...

Jagdeep, Pang, Farid, Thinagaren, Imran and Nazreev.

If I missed out anyone I met during the testing days, please do tell :)

Joshua, Over and OUT!

An Exciting March : The Third Day(FINAL)

Another day, another JPJ TEST going on in Sungai Dua (okay, not reaaaly another day, just another, EXCITING MARCH day . xD

Today was faster than usual, as I was there for only Bhg 3 of the car.

Before starting the Bhg2 for the freshies(Bhg3 already started and was going on), a small prep talk was given by the JPJ tester, none other than the guy who failed me last time! Haha, no grudges man, no worries xD.

While he was doing the talk, they called out "Nombor 6! Nombor 6! Joshua! Joshua John Samuel!" Okay, my turns up!

Goto TESTER;
Send EXAM_DOCUMENT_6;
Print RESPONSE;
_____________________________________________________

|EXAM_DOCUMENT ID ERROR. SEND EXAM_DOCUMENT_4 |
|_____________________________________________________|

After Number 4 went, I just waited there again.
Number 4 came back in the passengers seat (the unspoken sign of failure on the test) so I was kinda nervous (person before Number 4 too failed)

Went along the route, driving carefully, and in 12 minutes, scored 17/20 marks!

Phew, as March nears an end, the end has already dawned upon my driving school days, a graduate is me! =D

An Exiting March : 2nd day

Haha, March 15th, another JPJ test day!

This time I would be doing both car AND motorcycle.

The word of the day is waiting.

Waiting for the motorbike Bhg3 only : 2 hours.

Did see some nice wipeouts though...I still don't get how some people can flip their bike wheels skyward on the narrow bridge....doing that with the Virago would be murder xP.

Finally! My turns up!
*the satisfying soung of the bike starting up and engine idling*
*clutch and gear 1*

Remember the Previous posts Diagram? Here it is again!


Yep, waiting 2 hours to do 2 minutes of Harley Davidson-esque driving xD
Anyway, I passed!

After that, another wait for the car Bhg 2...

Waiting , waiting


Finally 2 hours later (12-ish)

Bhg2 Test Time!

Hill- Probably the scariest part of the whole Bhg2 went without a hitch. Yellow line, Hand brake, Hand Up, accelerando, and voila!
Parking and three point turning-Easy! Hakunamatata =D

Waiting , waiting

Two moar hours (2:30-ish)

"Nombor 71 ! Nombor 71!"

Okay, my turn!

*standing there while noticing that examiner is taking some time explaining something to the guy inside the car that just finished (I'm no lip reader, but I assume he's explaining how that guy failed?)

Outta the school(in the car) !
Over to the corner(in the car)!
Getting outta the turn (in the car)!
Into the junction (in the car)!
Lady walks in front of me (out of the car(she was) ) !
Examiner steps on his brake pedal (in the car)!
And then I get pulled over (Outta the car (He says) )!
And then I get back to the school! (in the car)
DU du du du du du dum

But yeah, 2hours + 2hours + 2hours = 6hours of waiting to be failed in....*drum roll*
.... 2 minutes! xP

HAiz, another day to go then....

Sat on the bike feeling slightly nervous (mind you, my license class only had two riders that day)

Figure 8-Easy enough, went in circles 4 times (1 and a half full 8's)
Narrow Bridge- This was amazing. went onto the bridge, nearly fell off at first but managed to straighten the bike(somehow) before slowly transversing the bridge(required time: 7sec, Me: 10sec :D)
Cones and Emergency Brake-No sweat! Easy as pie? haha, even aced the sharp turn after the emergency brake part, felt good about that.
Bhg3, "Road" Test- [diagram]



Yea, straight line and two turns, what could go wrong?
Doing hand signals before moving : 1 point

Singapore

Yeah, this is 2 days late..but haha, only managed to get proper internet connection now..:)

SIngapore...well, landed at night, 9-ish on December 30th...
Took the MRT..had some trouble on that..apparently you just have to click on your destination and not worry of the connecting trains...RIding the train in itself is free in that sense :)

Went to the wrong YMCA Hotel..xD

Spent an hour walking through Orchard Road at night...THats something everyone has to see....Orchard Road after Christmas at night! Beatiful...Sadly no pics tho...:(

Taxi's are quite cheap(comparably according to my Aussie cousin) and we took a 30min drive to the hotel.

Haha..the old receptionists were quite angry at us for checking in this late (it is 12 midnight now)

What else? Have a nice sleep and breakfast the next day :)... American All-You-Can-Eat Buffet :P.. bacon and eggs!

Took a free shuttle service to Orchard Road from the Hotel, and walked there for a while. Lotsa shopping malls side by side compared to Penang, went to er....Ion Mall or something...:P..the breeze outside the mall was nice and bought a cheap film camera to take pictures! SGD30.00 o.o ...

Haha...took the MRT back to airport, was a fun trip.

Got our bags and went to check-in for Perth flight..lotsa Whiteys' xD(Yea, sounds racist, but somehow lots of Irish accent sounding white people were going to Perth..perhaps that's Australian accent?)

Changi Budget Airport was quite nice (save for the strict security and their people).

BOarded to Perth...5 hours on a pressurized metal can flying 35,000 feet high at 200 knots? Haha..not sure of the speed..

Read a book, tried to sleep, drank a sip of water, rinse and repeat...until we landed at Perth.

More later!
