I THINK I'M KICK ASS TOO!

Four 4s.

Falcon punch!

My first sugarcane.

   So it was a great day indeed, having spent time with friends drinking by the beach, strumming creative yet constructive talks. How much more slack can it be? DUH!? When there's a hamock of course! Anyway, things have gotten a slight bit mundane after the sudden void from work, so I had to be adventurous. Thus, my first cup of sugarcane ever in my life. Tasted life.


   I'm such a fortunate little dork, and I'm loving it. Life was never easy for me though. Everyone has gotten it wrong, thinking that I'm "talented" and "happy-go-lucky", always appearing strong. I do agree that I am that now. But years back, I was one of the most broken few kids in singapore. Having the whole world hording me with horror. I was the shortest kid. I was the dorkiest kid. I was bullied in primary school. I was bullied in church. I was a failure at studies. I was uncool to the status-quo. I had bruises, cuts, stitches, broken bones, etc. I had no one to believe me about all that had happened at that point of my life. But I was strong in the head. Be it shit, phlegm, spit, or acid, it'll all be thrown at you in life. Just be receptive. For every knock that breaks your soul, you'll grow stronger after it.

   I had a bloody positive attitude towards life. So damn positive that you now see me as what I am today. AN UNDEFEATABLE KID.

   "To let go, and let God." I find that this phrase is just marvelous. It brings both wisdom and comfort to those who hold on so tightly to things that they get just so exhausted with life.

Tron city.

   Up above lies the only present I've ever recieved from a schoolmate throughout my 3 years in tertiary school, and I love it! Thanks Makiyo, it means a truck load to me!

   In life, many things happen. There are bound to be rocky patches lying ahead of you. No one ever said that life was easy. Though your path may be laid out infront of you, whether by God or by your parents, etc. You'll still have to learn to walk on your own, don't expect others to be guiding you always and don't blame others for your downfalls. Lest you become an aspirationally dead person. If you find the need to slap yourself to wake up, slap yourself. If you find a need to chop your right hand that sins, chop your right hand. Seize life to the fullest, cause we've only got an approximate 75 years to live. 20 of mine has passed, which leaves me an aproximate 55.

   Honestly it's more than enough time for me to save the world alone. Thomas Edison, Mother Theresa, Mozart, Michael Jackson, Wright Brothers, Albert Einstein, Newton, Jesus, they all did it. Society mocked them during their stay on earth, and they're gonna mock me too. So what? I'm Gareth Dean Lee. I'm not proud, I just believe in myself and in God.

Bubble-People.

It's fun to eat horfun.

   It's really important to reflect in life, cause we get to understand better about the things we do and why we did it. Whether we were in check with ourselves and if they were the right things to do. Many people live in what we call a bubble (world of their own). Living in a bubble makes you really self-centered as you do not step out of it to see what the world needs. You'll take everything for granted and soon you'll lose friends. I'm one person who loves to pop these bubbles of people. That's the reason why these people always either love or hate me. Afterall, bubble-people are just too used to their comfort zone that they will snap if you do pull them out of it. If they are receptive and have a certain level of maturity, they'll learn to know that you were helping them. If they aren't, they'll just hate you for "annoying" them, telling them what they did not want to hear, with their hearts hardening more each time.


   I'm a bubble-popper and I help bubble-people pop their bubbles.

Bless me to bless you.

Pretty odd clouds right?

   You see, God didnt intend for me to have more blessings than others because he prefers me. He's blessed me so that I could be a blessing to others. People mock my beliefs, but I know I'm happy with what I'm doing and I know it's right.

We are all Godsend.

Some still working.

Some still burning.

Some still drinking.

   Work is done! Final year project submissions are over! But somehow, I'm still just as busy. It's odd. Gradshows to handle, grandpa to visit, friends to help out with, portfolio, etc. However I know that one thing's for sure, I've passed by another level of literacy. To say the least in describing the design field lifestyle, "Have fun every single second. Work only starts at the last hour." It somehow works every time if you want to get an "A" for your grades.

Gareth at dispense?

Eating with Japanese.

   Up till date I've got the coldest shoulder ever, and that isn't a good thing. But honestly, how should I treat "friends" who never treated me as a friend? When they take all they can, and have no returns for me except for an utter disrespect. Being a gentlemen/lady isn't about the way you walk, dress, look, talk, or whatsoever superficial stuff there is. It's about having a heart for others, putting others before yourself. That is when, your actions will start to change. That is when, you become a gentlemen/lady and you won't have my cold shoulder. Cheers.

   Back to work.

I AM THE DARK FORCE!

   Though the force was with me throughout napfa, my gold still dropped to a silver. Blame the bakguas. Time for me to extinguish into bed.

How on earth did I break the glass?

   I was using so much strength to carry everything the whole of that day, that I got so used to it and applied the same force on my glass while putting them together... Thus it broke. What a night.
