You know honestly I had second thoughts on whether to "put aeroplane" all the way through because I wanted to sleep and I didn't know if I could survive energy level-wise for the BS with Jun Wei tomorrow. But everyone knows that Windez can't say a convincing no. :(
And so I mumbled and jumbled and went, with the evil thought of taking MC tomorrow if I cannot take it. Well, hours later, I'm glad I went for the karaoke because it was extremely awesome and refreshing! I haven't enjoyed this much in quite a while. Kudos to Zong Han for planning and following through in spite of the last minute cancellations and lack of attendance. We 3 are enough! :D
P.S. I'm not going to take MC tomorrow. The temptation shall flee from my sight this moment!
And I must really thank God for the breakthrough in my vocals. I was feeling rather demoralised yesterday after trying out my exam song with music. It was on all counts devoid of emotion. I realised I devoted so much effort to technique and so little on evoking feelings that I think it was believable if I let someone hear the recording and said it was synthetically done through Auto-tune.
You know, if you just dare, miracles are going to happen. And it did for me this day. Thanks God! :)

And today, I've got a few verses to share with everyone who feels like they have been shortchanged, that others who are doing lesser are getting better remunerations and they feel that this shouldn't be the case:
Matthew 20:1-16 It's too long to type out everything but I'd just like to say that whatever God decides to give us or others now is up to Him. He is sovereign and his plans are beyond us.
I believe that even as God gives others much when they have done little and seems to give us little when we have done much, He has merely given them on earth in full what they have deserved.
For us on the other hand, He has given us some here on earth and stored the rest of His blessings up in heaven, Matthew 6:20 "Where moth and rust do not destroy".
"So the first will be last and the last will be first." People may be held up high for now but we know in our hearts that our blessings are eternal.
This serves as personal reminder to myself, especially when I slog hard and others get day offs, when on my duty days I stay late and when someone who plays punk does duty, he is released earlier or when someone pretends to be sick, nothing is done about him. Because it doesn't matter what another person gets.
And now I know that I know that I know! :)

In putting pen to paper, or letters to blog in this case, I am trying to remind myself that in the run up to Asia Conference, we're going to get distractions and temptations by the truckload.
We'd be coerced, tempted, compelled and badgered to be involved in countless time-guzzling low-priority activities and be confused and misled into misunderstandings.
We'd be drained of our joy by the time Asia Conference comes so when we step into the Hall, all we feel like doing is sulking or turning into emo-superheroes.
But that's not going to happen, right my friends? We are going to safeguard this joy, the light in our eyes, the energy and passion we have and we are going to amplify and overcome whatever the world throws at us! At the same time we need to believe breakthroughs can happen and we're going to knock down walls and keep on keeping on.
Which brings to mind HOPE. Holding On, Praying Expectantly.
C'mon lets do it! We can do it! Yeah!
At this point, Windez's battery runs dry.
