    Same angels will never cross your path again
    Date / Time : Friday, May 29, 2009 / 8:38 PM
















    It's heartwarming to have people around you,

    constantly watching your back.

    Learnt to count your blessing,

    angels who crossed path with you.

    Because, somedays,




    the same angels will never cross your path again.

    --------------------------------------------------



    Life's like a soccer game.



    Current status: Red Card

    Current mood: Helpless

    Current desire : Get back on the field

    Current wants : My team-mates

    Current fate : They are selling me away.




    jealousy,

    My Hiatus Era.
    Date / Time : Thursday, May 28, 2009 / 6:08 AM















    6.15am now. Accomplishment, i finished my 8 chapters of notes, somehow.

    Now im super drained, and tonight gonna go clubbing as an incentive to work hard.

    But it looks more of an escape for Martin.

    --------------------------------------------------

    Yesterday, i struggled through a very painful spiritual warfare.

    It's either i continue running away and screwing myself further,

    or just be brave and make things right again.

    I wonder where did those last-minute courage came from.

    But the strength given, it's enough to get me through the day.

    I guess...I'll just hang in there, and see what life can offer for me.

    Maybe, just maybe, god will give me a reason to live for,

    for the next couple of months.

    Still, i hate staying in this Hiatus state,

    but i do count my blessing,

    and i'll learnt to live it with a smile (:

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Tonight,

    Martin Shinigami, KevinDoodlePants, TerrenceSpringMelon, Jess Da Jie, Ah J, Veron Zoey going to club.

    Let it be fun man. : D

    CYPHHHEERRR.

    And a dope song i found when i song-hunt last night.

    Personally, i like it alot, but then again,

    don't read into meaning too much.

    It has got nuthin' related to me. LOL.



    Nasri - Writers' Block


    Huh-oh, oeh-oh, yea-eah



    Another one, two check,
    another song for the radio.
    It hasnt sunk in yet,
    but its about to, get personal.
    Last night my life,
    she walked out with a suitcase.
    Took me by surprise,
    and Im hurting so bad.


    Now theres just an empty paper
    in a room that broke us up.
    Im running out of melodies
    they used to be enough.


    I cant write it, I just,
    I cant write a note.
    I cant write it, I just,
    I cant write it.
    If I finish this song,
    Ill admit that shes gone.
    and I wont write it, I just,
    I wont write a note.
    I wont write it, I just,
    I wont write it.
    Until my heart unlocks,
    I'll have writers block, (oeh)
    I'll have writers block..



    You used to wait up late,
    I said I'd be right home.
    Id even miss our dates,
    cause I was grinding in the studio.
    You always gave so much,
    I thought I gave it back.
    I guess I spend my love,
    to live in between you and the track.



    Now theres just an empty paper
    in a room that broke us up.
    Im running out of melodies
    they used to be enough.



    I cant write it, I just,
    I cant write a note.
    I cant write it, I just,
    I cant write it.
    If I finish this song, (finish this song)
    Ill admit that shes gone, (ohh)
    and I wont write it, I just,
    I wont write a note.
    I wont write it, I just,
    I wont write it.
    Until my heart unlocks,
    I'll have writers block,
    I'll have writers block..



    And first week that Im flopping,
    Ill be on the bottom of the charts.
    I need my one inspiration,
    the reason that Im saying.
    She is how I got to the top..
    I just cant write it.



    I cant write it, I just,
    I cant write a note.
    I cant write it, I just,
    I cant write it.
    If I finish this song, (finish this song)
    Ill admit that shes gone,
    and I wont write it, I just, (I wont write it, I wont write it)
    I wont write a note.
    I wont write it, I just,
    I wont write it.
    Until my heart unlocks,
    I'll have writers block,
    I'll have writers block..


    Oh, oh-oeh-oeh.


    come back





    Just if im blessed with song-writing skiils,
    There's so much more i can express.
    Martin.

    Just wondering.
    Date / Time : Monday, May 25, 2009 / 11:26 PM















    Are you breathing well?



    Martin.

    Date / Time : Saturday, May 23, 2009 / 4:00 AM















    Aite, Guys, let me get this straight.


    There's something you got to know about me, and my blog, and my habit of blogging.


    I don't want to generate anymore misunderstanding and what-so-ever.


    Firstly, It is impossible for me to have any relationship. SO PLEASE. Give me a break. Everyone should know that im running out of time, there's no point for a dying man to love, nor loving a dying man.



    Secondly, When i use a blog song, it is because i just find it nice and catchy. My english is soooo lousy that i don't really listen to the lyrics. Don't read into it too much aite..



    Thirdly, If you happen to hop by my blog, be it any stranger, you are more than welcome to read and know about what's going on for me. But, please, don't assume, don't judge.

    Because, you don't know me well dude.


    Assumption's the lowest form of knowledge.




    You've got no idea what's going on,
    Martin.

    Date / Time : Friday, May 22, 2009 / 1:41 AM















    Why am i,




    Still So imperfect in everything i do.




    I don't want to be taken for granted easily.




    Damn. Build up some pride man.




    I want to stand alone,




    Strong and untouchable.





    Dare to be different,




    yet no one can disagree my existence.




    Gotta be tougher in all aspects,
    Martin.



    Date / Time : Monday, May 18, 2009 / 3:14 AM















    Gaaah. i was having fever this morning.


    Just wanted to have another 10 minutes nap before crawling down for service, and


    ended up......


    I feel like a total loser, you have no idea how disappointed i am.


    Sets me emo for the day.


    Im glad Kevin's out of his Hiatus, it's my turn now.


    Tag over. NICE.


    ----------------------------------------------------------

    KO-Night was sick.

    I agreed with Jonas. THANK GOD we never get in Top 8. Or we will get our asses burnt.

    But well, its a learning platform to get ourselve burnt, so im actually quite depressed that we didn't get in to even have the chance to be smoked, or at least press ourselve the past 2 weeks to train on battling/freestyling skill.

    Nevertheless,

    Grats to everyone.

    Be it win or loss. You guys were still awesome and to me yall all the same, dope.


    Stay Strong Boogaloos, KarMar, Red Line, Pink Monster and Lock Out Loud.

    YOU GUYS WERE AWESOME. : ))))) Can't wait for the coming week, when you guys do your thang again.


    Now, im freaking motivated to train harder. Just that im on the verse of giving up one of the genre.

    Popping Versus HipHop.

    I gotta choose one and stay focus.

    I won't get very far being a freaking hybrid.

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    Martin sensed more trouble coming.



    It supposed to be a good thing i guess...



    But now that im under certain curse,



    I advice people to keep a distance from me.



    Getting too close will just get each other burnt,



    miserably.





    I had my fun songs-hunting today,
    Martin.

    Date / Time : Saturday, May 16, 2009 / 9:35 AM
















    Just came back from clubbing last night, and we slept over at Fion place.



    Time for tpde freshmen's camp.


    I feel shag and weak all over, can't believe i survived partying with a fever going on.


    Bwaaaa, but i kept my promise.

    NO ALCOHOL.

    And there's a dope popper in the club tonight.


    Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO IMAN, MAY AND JAMES FOR THEIR 19th birthday : ))



    YET ANOTHER GREAT YEAR AHEAD.


    GTG BATH!


    SEE YALL ARD SOON : )))



    We haven hang out like that for a long while.. : )
    Martin.

    Date / Time : Friday, May 15, 2009 / 12:59 AM

    Cos I feel blessed this days.
    Do you?



    Martin.

    Date / Time : Tuesday, May 12, 2009 / 1:29 AM














    Greatness's within reach.


    Success = (Faith + Hardwork) / time.

    God's not a spoon-feeding god.

    Work your way to your goal,

    ask and seek for it,

    and you shall be granted.

    All it left's the time.


    i am excited about what's coming ahead of us.


    No one offered me an opportunity like this before.


    At the very least, not there.


    God's answering my call,

    he's building a ladder,

    he's trying to guide me,

    give me a reason to continue the persuasion of dream.




    Im tired enough.

    Don't know what im talking.


    But yeah, let's do this, people.




    Martin.

    Date / Time : Sunday, May 10, 2009 / 4:00 AM















    GGGAAAHHH.

    I think after a series of event,

    i finally found myself falling out of love.

    And the issue about the crew's getting better.


    I am glad that i went for cell group,
    cos what Kenny said really make an impact on me,




    Having faith doesn't mean miracle.

    It comes with action,

    and with god's authority,

    everything's possible,

    just a matter of time and how much resolve/perseverance you got,

    to believe, to walk on with it.

    Greatness's within reach.

    ---------------------------------------------------

    I have faith that everything will turn out just fine for everyone and for myself.

    Gen blessed me with a bible,

    im grateful to god for giving me all the watchmen i need in my daily life.



    Well....

    just like dance...

    You got to know the history, every dancemove has a story to tell.


    Then if i truly believe in the kingdom of god,

    i should start coming to church as a regular to know its origin, every line on the bible also got its own story to tell and a direction for the believers.




    Martin.

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    P.S. Sounds as LOL as it is, even though i somehow really did let go,




    "God

    Don't let me fall in love another time,

    it is torturing to do this all over again.

    Only let true love comes, when you know,

    it's the right time, at the right place, with the right one.

    Shin"

    : )))

    Date / Time : Saturday, May 09, 2009 / 3:02 AM














    At Kevin's place with Jonas tonning and playing PS3 now. DEVIL MAY CRY 4!!!


    Well...cos i got no bus to go home after watching X-men with my school clique( Fion May Iman Yanti Fatin) + SuperSaiyan Kevin, Kupo, Retarded Twin keiths.


    Dope show. I swear the 2-on-1 battle on the top of the castle's damn cool!! DeathPool versus the wolverine brothers. SHING SHING SHING SHING SHING all over** And the 'Laser Headspin' 's classic. HAHAA.

    Suddenly, i wish i can be a mutant too.

    The mutant who can reverse time and live all over again the way he wants it to be. Now that's a COOL POWER.

    -----------------------------------------------------

    Kevin's LOL cos we found ourselves trapped at the highway after sending the dying kupo back.

    We gave up cabbing, and slowly backtracked our way to his house, as we...

    talk and share with each other about alot of stuffs, about life, about our past.



    I feel...we are all people who comes from different walks of life.

    Everyone grows differently, faced with shits that no one else can fully understand, and none can experience it exactly like how i do.

    He got his own problems and weaknessess that no one can comprehend, so do i.


    It might be hard and stressful to pull through and reach your goal/dream. If you forever run away, you will be standing at the same platform. People might judge you, comment on you.But why do we care because stepping up's already another level higher from those who submit to failure and hide away, just like how i used to be.

    And if you don't accept failure, when will success ever dawn upon us.

    We only live once.

    So let's just have the undying will to make things right for ourselves and go for whatever things you want to do, you wish you could be, or even tear down the temporary discomfort and fear to reach out for what you want.


    ------------------------------------------------------


    I might be someone who gotten stepped all over alot of time, and i might be someone who takes failure heavily.

    But i won't stop, because i still have a burning will to try limitlessly, kill myself over and over, depress
    over and over,


    and then,


    redeem myself over and over,



    until i see MY light of fruit.




    to all the dying people, don't give up.
    Martin. : )

    Date / Time : Thursday, May 07, 2009 / 12:37 AM















    Something happened,

    and it triggered my inner feeling again.

    It never did leave me,

    this sensation,

    that i tried to shadow away.



    There's villains around,

    and new watchmen coming into the picture.


    A dark knight like me,


    time to fade off,

    and give my blessing.


    ---------------------------------------------------



    Just don't trip.



    Because i feel helpless and hurt.




    But i guess..



    this new hero will be there to catch you.



    P.S Im not emo! in fact, today's great : ))) Have a good time in school, hanging out with friends and all.


    Fly away,

    No pain, no gain.




    There's always a give and take in whatever things u do.





    Look what had i done to my life when im chasing dreams.....





    Friends whom i hang out with,


    Glory that i taste,


    Love that i found ,


    it's all from just one source.


    ---------------------------------------------------

    Im nothing like what i am 3 years back. The guy who just want to have a simple life and live happily ever after with people around him. I can be talentless, but i'm contented, because there's so many people that care and shower love on me.


    Now,


    I had lost,


    the need of affiliation outside of the dance-scene.



    It just doesn't interest me one bit anymore,



    yet i turned into a very passion-driven individual who self-motivates himeself to be a even better person.



    Am i doing well and on the right track?






    I wonder.


    -------------------------------------------------------

    Should i slowdown my pace and go back to them,

    or just continue the dance journey?


    ughhh...whatever, im off for crew training.



    For whom, i dancing for,
    Martin.

    Date / Time : / 12:09 AM















    I kept my words and did the freaking 500 lines of 'I will go for church service' punishment. Well.....decide not to bargain in the end, cos its nothing compared to the sin of not going for church service for so long, i felt.

    ACCOMPLISHMENT!!
    It started with a few lines......
    And then a page!!
    And 5 pages!!!


    The price of it.



    ------------------------------------------------------


    Chansee crashed our( me and gen) lecture . LOL.


    At the end of the day, went to explore the TampinesOne Mall.



    It was quite interesting.


    Gen found her Beauty and the Beast file while i get to eat the super dope xian long bao at the basement!! I swear it's damn good!!


    :))) And i bought this earplug too. It's damn good. The bass super defined. My first spending for the month. $30!

    : ))))

    I want to go try the jap food there!! It looks damn good can!! : D


    And the Uniqlo's alrght alright only. HongKong one so much better. -.-

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    At night, met up with the clique ( me, fion, may, yanti, fatin and iman), chill there and talk cock. GRRRR. Make me wait for 3 hours. Felt like strangling them, but since May treated me McFlurry and massaged me, i guess i shouldn't complain. : P


    AND WHOOOO, Night-cycling with them soon!! I think they said this friday!! And i got myself partner for AnAn course already. Fion going with me. YAYness.


    Freaking tiring and shag day. I guess i still haven recover from the dance chionging the past month.

    Well, tmr there's no school and im looking forward to session.


    : ))))

    PEACE.

    -------------------------------------------------------

    How ironic.

    I feel sad, because im getting better and doing fine.

    Date / Time : Sunday, May 03, 2009 / 6:14 PM















    I swear i can't ton for nuts. Anything over 12am and im still outta my house, i will start to have this drunkish feeling, that makes me feel shag and unwell all over.



    Just woke up and it's like i got ran over by a truck. X(



    Anyway, Martin's overly-sensitive to things that revolves around him this days.



    Chill Chill alrite...



    Just be normal again, and be ignorant to the details.



    Now that KO-night's over.



    I can finally slowdown the pace of my hectic dream chase.




    It's time to gain back what i lost, and what's precious to me,



    for the past months and years.



    Hands of time's never with me,



    and if i still don't do anything about it,




    I will probably regret for life.


    ------------------------------------------------------


    Last night, the crew went over to Kupo's place to ton.



    It's kinda thrilling cos' the parents didn't know we were there,



    and we had a hard time not making any noise when playing WII! THAT'S LIKE SO IMPOSSIBLE!!! LOLS.


    COS IT IS A WII!!


    It was the most intensive and violent game console ever,



    WITH THE MOST NOISY AND RETARDED PEOPLE AROUND.




    Me, Jonas, Kevin, Ter, CS, Niger and Kupo!

    ----------------------------------------------------



    I found myself sleeping all over the place,


    LOL.


    No one corner's sleepable for me!!



    except for the chair, when i actually sit there and fell asleep. HAA.




    FUNK YOU NIGER! Burn you soon on the dancefloor for all the past nipple attacking and body-slamming on the legendary dope Poppin'Shin.



    YOU GOT SERVED.



    k bye.


    And thanks for the stay Kupo! : ) IT WAS UBER FUN.






    cross finger and left unsaid,

    It feels like..



    tmr's production.



    HAHAHAS. SHIIITTT.



    Let's not try to think about steps but remember, dance's sth for everyone to enjoy, including the dancers themselves.



    The stage is set, the audience's waiting.
