wahahaha...SINGAPORE BIENNALE 2006! I am hereeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!That is sijie...walking on one of the works...hehehe
This is one of the works...in SAM...isn't scary? i think it is horrifying la!
sijie took a snap at me when i was smsing him, she said that i really look like a woman in love when im smsing him....wad de rubbish...i look NORMAL!
sometimes...SAM can be quite a romantic palce as well...at night maybe...
an artistic shot i got from the fountain at National Art Museum...wahahaha.
haha...im really very happy today. In the afternoon sijie and I and the art class went to see Singapore Biennale at Singapore Museum and Singapore Art Museum. The works there are quite scary, morbid and some are...really disgusting...eh...yeah. I remember there's one work, video, called "the last supper" or something, it's about the last meal for people who are going to be executed, wad they desire to eat before they die, how they treat this issue of "last supper" over the centuries. It was pretty thought provoking but...some parts are disgusting, like...got one part it says that a king survived an attempt of an assassination and then he captured his assasin and his entire family, executed all of them except his eldest daughter, he locked her in a place and tortured her, he odered people to slice off thin pieces of meat from her everyday and then force her to eat her very own meat...err...yucks. well...sometimes...i duno why...i know all these works are very..."deep". as in, they are really conceptual and are able to make you think, but i just couldn't agree with the way they present their ideas. Really, i've been to Tanglin Camp and saw the other works too, and my impression was that they all try to use very extreme ways to "shock" their audience into identifying with their aims or at least, the audience will take a second look. All these just make me feel that our world is no longer normal, people have to use weird, scary means or even extreme measures to communicate with others. why cant we talk, pass on messages in a nice way? why cant we voice our objections, our opinions in a peaceful and gentle manner? sigh...21st century, what has technology, advancement and science brought to us?--the degeneration of human beings. Yes, they do improve our lives, greatly. But, why dehumanise us, they made us less than who we are. They influenced us, they are in control of our world now, not us, imagine the world without machines, can we still survive? think about it, i think im completely destroyed by all these things. THINGS.
ok...yeah, anyway...put that serious topic aside, i smsed him throughout my trip to the museums till dinner time. Apparently his duty was very very boring. haha, he was complaining. anyway...sijie kept teasing me, and then later, i duno if it's because im too involved in "thinking about him", i toppled a whole tray of food, which includes both sijie's and my food. (we ate at burger King :)) ...shit laz, and then xinni, vic, ruifan, winnie and sijie kept teasing me, and words like "flower", "diamond" and wadever...fly ard my head. I was really embarrassed...but...it somehow, feels sweet inside.
haha..and yeah, about my promos, it's unexpectedly well done. The results are damn cool, damn good. I've never thought that i would score so well, taken into consideration that I see his face on every single sheet of paper during all my exams...amazing siah, really, he seems to be pushing force now, pushing me towards better grades. haha...very good. I got BBBCC, really damn good. At least i think so..percentiles wise...except art and hist dropped, others all improved. But hist, i drop from 96% to 71% which is quite depressing, but i want to take H3 Hist, really, and even mr low say i shld. I will try...yeh!! whahaha..and he's the first person i informed aft i got back my result, and then he replied, same as last time, he's like, always very sure that im going to score well...like he knew in advance liaoz...haha...i duno...he's more confident in me than i am in myself. well...art, math, hist got B and lit, GP got C, but my math percentile improved from 68% to 88% and GP from 57% to 67%...not bad lehz! wahaha... hope can stay in B band.
没想到时间会过得这么快，一眨眼，又一年已然要逝去。。。煞然回首。。可谓无限感慨。这一年里，失去了不少但也得到了许多，有悲伤也有喜悦。泪水中掺杂着的是幸福。只能说，我成长了，我明白，成长是需要代价的，但是，我愿意，为这无价的成长经验而付出相等的代价。我付出了，但与此同时，我也有了收获，人生中不是所有的事物都是美好的，但是，只要我能把握住那仅有的些许美好，也许，我的人生，就不会有太多的遗憾。虽然，我仍不快乐。。。人，总是要长大的。有些感觉，是要用心来体会的。虽然，我仍不快乐，但是，我已知足，毕竟，快乐在人的一生中犹如昙花一现，人们往往握不住它们，握不住快乐。然而，当我们静下心来，让心去自我发现，就能体会到，其实，美丽的并不只是快乐而已，有时候，那淡淡的一丝忧伤，会带给我们另一种回味无穷的美妙滋味。。。我，真的，知足了
