because i read for one more day by Mitch Albom, i had this poem stuck in my head:
Of One Self-Slain, by Charles Hanson Towne
When he went blundering back to God, His songs half written, his work half done, Who knows what paths his bruised feet trod, What hills of peace or pain he won?
I hope God smiled and took his hand, And said, "Poor truant, passionate fool! Life's book is hard to understand: Why couldst thou not remain at school?"
and becos i had to do lit homework, i stumbled upon another poem:
Around The Corner, by Charles Hanson Towne
Around the corner I have a friend, In this great city that has no end, Yet the days go by and weeks rush on, And before I know it, a year is gone. And I never see my old friend's face, For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well, As in the days when I rang his bell. And he rang mine but we were younger then, And now we are busy, tired men. Tired of playing a foolish game, Tired of trying to make a name. "Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes, And distance between us grows and grows. Around the corner, yet miles away, "Here's a telegram sir," ..."Jim died today."
And that's what we get, and deserve in the end: Around the corner, a vanished friend.
that's what i have to share. anw, i have been going out tons a lot, shall update soon(:
NTU CAC IMPRESARIO 2008 a step of courage, a world of possibilities
yesterday i went down to mediacorp to support welson's duet (: he's a finalist for the duet category so yep, he had alr clinched the finalists' awards, but the champion was to be decided on 1st Mar itself. truddy came over my hse to pick clothes for her friend's wedding, so we both went to bus stop tgt (: i left for mediacorp not knowing how to get there. welson told me thompson road, arthur told me near prata hse and macritchie reservoir, and truddy told me macritchie reservoir... from there i gather, i shd just get to macritchie reservoir and cab there. but when i board the bus i overheard people going for Impresario too! so lucky :D so i just followed them! and at the bus stop, they had arrows indicating the way to Impresario! phew (:
mediacorp!
walking in...
Impresario 2008 is an event held by NTU to gather both singers and dancers to compete and experience the process. apparently i heard that this year they had a better venue and better prizes. they opened up a new category, too for bands.
earlier on, welson gave me weiming's number so i can contact them, so i joined jeraldine & weiming for Impresario (: I SAW MRCHRISPY & superstar's nat ho & jeremy i wanted to say hi to mrchrispy okay LOL! anyhoos, bands were the first to start the entire show, and it's so noisy X: but i think Monstar Phunk was nice! they have good chemistry between their members (:
next came DANCE! all of them were awesome, but i really think that t.a.t.t.o.o was nice! then it became quite boring alr.... the original compositions and okay.. DUET welson's duet partner Sheryl had FANS screaming and laughing so loud, they kinda ruined the song's romantic atmosphere ): much to my dislike... hahah and welson stood so far from sheryl when they held their hands it's so awkward! but their singing was so niceeeeeee :D:D:D
but when it's between them and the boy duet, the boy duet were the champion.. but they do deserve it, cos the boys sang two songs and they still dance! hardwork pays, creativity too.
i was not allowed to take pics, but if i know that no one's gonna catch me, i would have snapped more!
and we let pics do the aftermath :D
weiming & jeraldine's :D i joined them for dinner at 10.30 becos weiming is FULL of HOSPITALITY hahah! but they're so nice it feels weird, since this is the first time i went out with them! ate dinner at newton, took pics, and cabbed home cos no more buses ): Impresario 2008 (:
