Facades
On a last minute attempt to improve my english writing through the simple process of blogging.
I'm thinking of changing my blogskin with one for titles.
Tempted to change to the blogskin to the one which falls on my 15th birthday.
Preferably with the ability to generate viewership for my post titles.
So anyway i wanted to decide a topic for today's post.
Honesty would somewhat be contradictory to the topic on facades.
I was never able to pronouce this word correctly.
A misprounouciation in the "fa" sound.
This term wouldn't be that unfamiliar to most people.
A simple word of six letters(minus the plural) can mean so much.
The average human would probably consist of a facade and inner self, simply put, a inner, more spiritual/mental self and the other, the outward, physical mask.
Let me first say this post is not directed at anyone or anything in existence or dead. Maybe you can learn something from the post and i do hopefully you will.
Its not everyday you see me writing so formally. Ok make that interlectually.
Back to the topic, the defination of you inner self would be who you really are, you personalities, your defined characteristics(which may seem impossible to change), your mental self, your other body. Much like the mircroscopic terms & conditions print on documents which most people don't see. Go figure the amount of rising lawsuits and conflicts.
Most of our beliefs derive from our personalities and it is in this "body" where your personalities grow, shaped and gradually define us as a person.
You outer self would be something much like a powerpoint slide. Something that where people only see a side of it or see it from a summarised(brief) point of view. The dangerous thing about this is that sometimes your mask cannot account for who you actually are. It puts a toll on people nowadays to even discover how their peers are really like as a person. An outer self usually does not wholly present your inner personalities but instead acts more as a mask to disguise yourself from others.
Don't condemn me on making this point, reflection would be a much more fruitful option.
A mask therefore in the sense of diguise is much like a facade.
There isn't any point denying that there is hardly anyone that possesses one out there.
In fact it could be said to be a human commidity.
Facades are used to blend in with your classmates to make friends.
Facades are used to suffocate others in confusion.
Facades are the things bosses want to see during a job interview.
The last one was meant to be a joke.
So continuing on my point, facades are present in almost every corner of society.
A quick example to note would be a person of rather quiet, bashful nature to be rather unnessacarily vulgar or enforce acts of embarassment just to be acceptable within a certain circle of friends.
Its not easy for one to peel off the mask to reveal who you really are.
The thing is, most people find it unacceptable to see friends having a 180 degree change in personality after a day.
They have long gotten used to the masked one.
That is also the reason sometimes why it is difficult for one to unmask one self in such a situation.
I feel there isn't a need for such complication in life.
Though it is difficult to get rid of such a mentality, it is possible.
If you friends are really your best pals, they wouldn't mind seeing the REAL side of you.
The world is becoming shallower day by day.
It dosen't have to a complete change at one go, maybe just a slight peek of it everyday.
Days turn to months and months turn to years, by a year, it would probably mean that you've felt yourself become much more honest about yourself, not only to your friends but yourself as well.
Well I think i'll be closing my topic here as my Mid Years starts tomorrow so here's a shoutout to all taking your mid year exams:
GOOD LUCK & GOD BLESS!

Haha ok several thoughts running through my heads today.
Better take some time to pen them down before they scatter elsewhere.
Mid-Year in like 3 days like omgwtfbbq.
2 language papers on both thurs and friday.
Found a few songs in my library that i've hadn't listen to in a long time.
Somehow they still sound fresh and good.
Namely:
Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
BackStreet Boys - I'll be the One
Usher - Let It Burn
Maroon 5 - This Love, She Will Be Loved
American Hi-Fi - The Geeks Get The Girls
Seether Feat. Amy Lee - Broken
And somehow i feel Avril's new song, Girlfriend isn't really cutting it.
I mean just compare to any of the previous songs in her past album Under My Skin, the lyrics, the tune, all seems to be shabbily composed and hastily produced into something much, well on my opnion, much worse than any of her other albums.
It wouldn't even be fitting to call it a shadow.
Being much sort of an Avril fan, i'm quite disappointed with it.
Has mainstream music really become so senseless nowadays?
Sadly, there could be a yes present in the answer.
While listening to Death Cab For Cutie's I Will Follow You Into The Dark, one of the lyrics went:
"In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule."
Immediately cat high came into mind haha.
But i'm not implicating anything here.
Just coincedential thought.
Recently someone's been playing the replay on these two tracks in my head:
Chris Daughtry - Over You
The Red JumpSuit Appratus - Facedown
Ok its late so chow for now.
Song of the Day: Time is Running Out - Muse

Omgawd i feel so weakkkkk.
And NAPFA could be tomorrow.
Tricep pull-down can't lift 6kg properly.
Arm curl 4kg want die liao.
No time do Lat-pull cos gym close T_T
Ahhh crap. I think fail NAPFA like that lahh.
Today went to make IC, saw Leonard, Yong Jie and Ms Tan!
Haha.
So qiao they today go do IC also.
Then i had to wait like 1 hour plus cos didn't bring birth cert. then my mum went home to take.
Playing flying finger then decided to sleep cos hp bat low.
1 month later collect 0.0
Today i had a revelation while walking on the way home.
Was thinking about some flirting stuff and how it was ruining people lives.
Seriously i'd prefer a lasting relationship then one love life full of scattered memories.
So i thought that if you love someone, you can only love him/her wholeheartedly and not another person.
Kind of matches one of the bible verses.
Matthew 6:24(NKJV)
"No one can serve two masters; for either hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and the mammon."
Kind of fitting i thought.

Reached church at around close to 2.
Whew early.
Didn't have to do support today. So can sleep long zzz.
Help arrange chairs and stack them today.
That was the main duty for me for today's internal traffic.
Easter is some huge event.
There are like hundreds of people waiting at the CTE for seats while we're unstacking the chairs and they're either in the way or just after we stack they fast chowp seats.
Lol.
Then had to run around and help lay seats at the overflow places.
Watched the drama at the overflow there.
Woah very emo and touching.
Nice work drama team.
Then had to do alter call.
2nd time le so more experience.
Today's pointers during ushering:
1) Don't carry chairs above your shoulder.
2) Always wear your tag at a place where people can see easily.
After that our cg had a short birthday celebration yay!
Haha but I had to return to ushering after it ended.
Gladly there wasn't much work to do and there was no recycling either so i could go for the carnival.
Talked and ate abit haha.
Then later went bedok with Darryn, Shi Lin, C.K., Rolland and Nathan.
Chionged a huge cup of chin chow.
Then ate ban mian.
Nathan says, never eat dry ban mian with chilli. The taste sucks.
Lol.
Then...C.K. oradered one bottle of carlsberg!
Hahaha.
Then Nathan took two sips, Rolland had half a glass, Shi Lin too, Darryn and me had about 1 and a half glasses.
Not enough to make me seh
But it sure made me feel bloated haha.
The next time i'm drinking ever again is next year.
x)

Not much in school lately.
Dreaded Mid-Year in 3 weeks time.
Sometimes i wonder why our school likes to chiong so much -.-
Really stressing.
Ahh Easter's round the corner and i'm spammed with duties @_@
Hoping to get people to come.
So far liang said he'll try to come as long as he's free.
Best come for friday's service if not sat night.
Edited the project video today.
I think its not bad in the sense that 1 clip was missing so the whole organisation was a little screwed but it still managed to turn out fine.
I think i can quit photog anytime now xD

Kind of nostalgic i guess.
