My thoughts: I just found it amazing.. =P


Striking~ 9/11 The falling man




9/11: THE FALLING MAN
September 11 2001 was a day of many incredible and shocking stories: stories of survivors, stories of heroes. But there was one story that people didn't want to face. The story of the people who began to jump from the World Trade Center just minutes after the first plane hit. Their images were caught on videotape and in photographs, but soon they were never seen again, as if they had never existed.
WATCH A VIDEO
EXCERPT NOTE: Disturbing images, discretion advised
Among those pictures is one of the most unforgettable images from 9/11 - a photograph of a falling man, frozen in mid air, his body perfectly parallel with the twin towers of the World Trade Centre. (see above)
The photo ran in newspapers across the world the following day, and should have remained one of the defining images of that terrible event. Instead, it was erased from history.
CBC Newsworld's The Passionate Eye presents the North American premiere of The Falling Man, the story of the 'jumpers' of 9/11. It follows the trail of the photographer who nearly lost his life shooting the image; of the citizens who decried it, arguing that it was sensational and exploitative; of the editors who published it and then reluctantly banned it; and the journalist who finally uncovered the falling man's identity.
The Falling Man confronts this single, harrowing image and helps history to give a proper due to the jumpers of 9/11.
Produced and directed by Henry Singer.



My thoughts: I'm pretty affected, after watching this video. So i'm not gg to
comment much. I still remember that night when this 911 happened, i was watching
news on CNA. And suddenly there was a latest report on this incident. There were
live pictures of the north building of the World Trade Centre on fire. The south building
is still not hit. Just minutes later, i saw a plane coming and hitting right smack into
the south building. My hands were over my mouth. I was in total shock. The news
reporter did not say anything for a good 3 minutes or so. Its something i have
never seen before, and it was just too much to take. Even for a Singaporean sec3 student.
I had problem sleeping that day. Cause it just seem so unreal. I was watching the news
with my mum and my brother. Nobody spoke when we switched off the tv.

anyways,
back to reality and now.

I hope the wake up call is good yea =) and i know u are juggling with alot of
things now. Jia you! =DD ( read ur blog Lyon. This is refering to ur econs test.)
Oh and not forgetting Zhi Ying. haha.. Will remember ur birthday la =D
and yeap, do try and manage ur time better!! =DD It can be done!
Thanks sister! Thank you Hui Li for ur tag!! =DD
Must must jia you yea! =P See ya real soon in the next Publicity meeting!

For me i am just working hard in my studies now. Wanna get the momentum
back. =P

feellikeaslackday

wahaha!

guess wat, Nelson(my classmate) told me that i should not keep repeating
those "jia you Lyon", "All the best Lyon.." kinda comment.
haha.. now that he talk about it. I went to have a look.
I did that eh? haha.. usually i type blogs when i am at the most tired
condition. So yea, i just typed whatever that came to mind.
Eh.. I type those jia you for Lyon cause 1) refering to her blog entries?
Sometimes she's in need of these Jia yous.. and i thought she might
read my blog entries, so yeap, will type it there. 2) Cause she is always
so so busy, and i dun get a chance to talk to her properly. I will just
dedicate a small part of blog entry to her. (just basically type whatever
i wanted to say out.) 3) Because she's my daughter! oh well..
haha.. am seriously mentally drained when typing this too. But great
that i fet feedbacks from "fans" (Nelson considered a fan? hahahaha!
bet u'll kick me the next time i see you. haha.. Btw, he's a TaeKwonDo
Specialist!A Coach! Cool yea!)

Here's the encouragement part!

Jia you to all my lovely classmates! I know i have been so redrawn from
the class activities for so so long. But i am really seriously packed every
single day. Some days i am totally free. Like today. But i took this free
day to well.. study! haha. haven't been really studying for the past 3 weeks.
So it feels great to be scratching my head and writing and cancelling again!
It really feels great! haha.. Juggling all the commitments i have has became
a challenge. And i wanna have a good plan going soon. Like try to come out
with a system to do my YVIP stuff.. Share-On Welfare Organization stuff..
and juggling with work, Of course, all these are so that i can generate more
time to study.SOunds good eh? ha.. I am on it! Will make sure its up and
running by August 1st! =P So don't worry yea?! I am ok. =D

Jia you to all that are preparing for A levels like Huili, those that are taking
promos like, Lyon, Rachel, Eunice, Jinghuan, Alvin, Melvin, Jasmine, Dorathy,
those mugging hard for their O levels like, Waikit, Jessica, PJ and
those End of year exams, Hui Bin, Zhi Ying, Edmund, Rafael, Shawn, PJ, Mervin!!

You Guys Must Must Jia You Alright! It is only so tiring for just these 3-4 months,
after that i'll see u back at YVIP and of course, more fun! For now, put in 101%
into your studies!! =D

At last~!! I started to mug!!

Just reached home! haha.. its like hmm.. 5:37am now!

Went to mug at Fajar MacDonald's tonight! =D
It was fruitful, because i did the studying with my pri sch
friend, Chong Yuan.
In addition to mugging, we did talk for like 3 hrs? Correct me
if i am wrong bro. ha.. i thought we talked real long.
He is having some problem with relationships, so i am there
to just listen and give my 5 cents worth. It was a great
sharing session. You are clear on what is expected of you
and you know what to do next, thats always a good thing.
With direction, will travel! =D
And don't keep feeling victimised =X
The more u think this way, the more u will be victimised.
So try to look at things in the positive way.
Don't always focus on the problem, focusing on the problem
will never lead u to the solution, look beyond the problem,
questions like, is it short term? or long term?
And sometimes its not that big a problem, its just that
we are exploding the whole situation. Man tend to exaggerate
things alot. Its normal, but try to be concious when u are doing that.
Jia you and i believe things will work out for you man!
You're one nice man, things will get better =P
From what i see, you are on your way to becoming the man u always
wanted to be. U're on the way to success. Jia you!!

Oh man.. gonna go rest alr. haha..
Work tml from 930am to 4pm!! =D
A good work day, cause i got to work in the morning and early afternoon.
haha..

Jia you lyon in your work!!
And all those working tml.... =D
SMILE!!

great day!

Its been a great day!!

Well basically whenever there is an outing, be it with classmates or
friends et cetera, i'll be happy =)
Thats why i treasure all the outings that my schedule allows me to
attend. I cherish every moment of it. Though sometimes i am too tired
and facial expression all so down.. Guys, at the bottom of my heart,
i really love the company and the short hour or two out together
for a meal or to do some activities. Just wanna say a big thank you
to you guys, u guys make my day so so much brighter.

Basically i am working on a new VWO, yv, publicity tm, school, sports-
jogging, insurance work and also my new part time work at cafe cartel.
So yea, if u see me all drained in my face, do give me a pat on my back.
=D usually i need that to get back to life. But i always try to be self
concious and smile whenever i see anyone. If i don't, don't keep asking
me if i am alright, cause i am alright =) Though, yes, i feel being cared for.
ha.. I'm a fickle old man. haha..

Just gotta jia you yea.

Happy birthday to Jia Yi! Oh ya, just to burst it all out now, last sem i did
had a crush on u! haha. but hey, i dun think i did enough to impress u or stuff.
and i yea, kinda have my heart tied up with another girl. so yea. not gg to keep
it a secret! =)

Just watched step up 2!! ITS GREAT!!
Ha.. got a feeling i am starting to speak like those American hip hop ppl. ha..

Oh ya, just a short publicity stun here, if there is anyone that will like to know
more about YVIP(youth volunteer involvement programme), do let me know.
Cause i am one of the committee member this year and its a great camp.
You will feel like u have matured way beyond ur years after this camp.

And its a great place to make great friends!

My number is 81282848. Peng Yong here. Just give me a call or sms. =)

Trilympics!

Trilympics was just great!!! hahaha..

Well we set a goal, then you go get it.
=D Yes! I targetted to take this opportunity to train for
army half marathon and Standard Chartered Marathon.
Goal was to acheive 43km (108 round the 400m track).
It was a tough tough 8hrs plus of run.
Afew things kept spiralling in my mind.
Was feeling so freaking tired that things kept
coming to mind..
Things like "My body posture must always be there! Try to look like
am steady and can keep going.. Cause its a good way of cheering myself
on."
.."keep going, keep going.. "
.."steady, as long as there are people running, it means i can run too."
.."never give up, keep smiling, when u see people, cheer them on, so that
it also motivates myself to keep going(reverse psychology).."
.."i wanna be a good role model for the yv tfs, rafael and shawn, keep going,
they will see that and will also take away something from this run.."
.."wanna sms those that i wanna sms, to tell them that i did it!! b4 that, keep
going!!"

It was a good run! And a good cycling experience! haha..
At the end of the day, clocked 43km of run, 48.11km of cycling.
Hope trilympics was a grand success!
Nomatter what, i am a part of it before, i want to see my baby do well too! =D
Left early from trilympics cause went to Marsiling to do "CIP" work this
morning at 8am.
It was a great experienc too.. cause i just kept eating and eating from
the onset of the carnival. haha.. =D helped to blow balloons using the helium tank!
haha.. first time i did that! I didn't felt exactly well. Was in autopilot mood.. haha
just going through motion. ha..
Had problem just reaching that place. cause my left knee is gone, walking like a
bai kar.. ha.. but it was fun just getting there =D

On the way back home,
Saw two incidents that enlightened me.
Was walking back home towards post centre paya lebar, when i saw this person
with a friend/son. This person is a cripple walking with a walking aid, although he
looks fine, but his left leg is bent and walking "yi guai yi guai". When he was about
to reach the train station, he saw a malay uncle there begging for money. He stopped,
dropped his walking aid, struggled to take out $2 from his pocket and gave it to the
uncle. U know wat went through my mind when i saw that? I just.. had an urge to and
did said it. "Fuck!" *with all the disgusted facial expression on my face.. *
I was disgusted with myself. I just felt shitty. I mean its obvious why i am.
I need to do things that i need to do. And yes, although it looks like wrong and shitty.
It's still things i need to do. I need to help other people no matter what it is.
Bottom line, question my own heart, if there are skeptics whether to help or not
and i am not sure, fuck it, just help.

Incident no.2. Well basically i was on train platform at paya lebar, and i was sitting on
the seat at the platform. Beside me was this ah ma. And she was taking something from
her bag. Nothing in the bad concerns me. Other than her hands, to be specific, her
fingers. Her fingers are so rugged, so rough, so frackle. It is due to too much exposure
to water for too long. And for a long period of time of this experience.
Whats so big about this? Well.. nothing much.. just one thing.
Everyone's life is different, and ur body will have some form of relics of it.
Relics of it might be good or bad, but how good or bad it is, its something that nobody
will ever notice if u look closer enough. She must be a hardworking lady, all her life.
Thats how i see it.

Woa ho, at last, can end this post le =D
thanks for reading and i will recover soon =D just gotta drink more water and
dragged my feet afew more days. =D

Jia you people!
Those haven't return me the pledge cards and donation money for trilympics, do
contact and reply me asap!!!

Great day again!! =D

It is a brilliant day today!!!


For reasons that i just cannot believe happened!


1) After listening to Adam Khoo's talk on positive thinking and also
success attitudes and formulas, i started to practise it. Starting from my
physiology point of view =) I started to do whatever confident and strong
characters in the world does. I am always sub-conciously reminding myself
to potray a confident posture and also a calm and presentable appearance.
From there, i tried to think of things more logically and indepth, never letting
other's negative thoughts or ideas get into my mind. I followed with my point
of views and also never veered off the objective that we are there for the meetings
etc. =D I just felt, real good =D If i'm feeling good about myself, that means somehow
the positive part of the skill that he taught us is not a fluke. I always tell myself
to smile and nomatter what, smile. Cause smiling is not an action, it invokes the
idea of happiness, a flow of positive energy. Even in the most tense situation,
smiling gets the other parties calmer and with things in better perspective,
problems will get easier to solve! =D

2) We visited Geyland East Elderly Home, Geylang schcc, Renci Buangkok.
Both Geylang schcc and Renci Buangkok were supportive of YVIP'08, but
Geylang East elderly home was well.. not so keen. and they are just too scrared
of this la.. that la.. But the thing is.. they are losing out. not us =)
I am just happy that we get to talk to two more homes!! =D and its great having
these two homes under our list of attachment homes, i am excited for the tfs and
the participants this year, its going to be a roller coaster ride!! But i am really sure
u will have one heaven of a ride!! wooo haaaa!! =PP

3) Basically my bro (Meng Shyan) and me were walking around the whole Singapore
today and we met alot of people. Both the ppl we are suppose to meet and those
that we met on the streets!! haha.. We just kinda helped at least 3 people today
=D It only came to our minds that we are actually helping others when we are walking
back from a shop where we shop for a special cake. =) We actaully helped 2 people with
road directions, we even actually stopped to check the map that i had in my bag.
Now it might seem like nothing, which i think we both felt the same way.. But we just
can't help thinking of how YVIP and our years in social service, have transformed us
into selfless people. I mean, helping others, without even thinking? Haha..
We both hope we can get more of these +ve elements in the participants and tfs
from this year onwards!! =D

4) I had a meal with four of my friends, celebrating for one of them(Junyang) his
birthday!! It was just great eating all the "mountain real sea feed" (Hint: translate to
chinese!) haha.. I just love food la!! =D and having a buffet is just great man!! haha
i kinda skipped lunch for it! =D And yea, not forgetting that we are celebrating
JY's ORD from the Republic Of Singapore Armed Forces!! =DD

Jia You in life bro!!

5) Last but not least!~! Jia you everyone for the trilympics!! And remember to bring
your card and donation money tml if u are helping to sell!!
For thoes who can't come, ie, Lyon, Jia You too!! I bet u are busy! =D

Jia You & Smile =D

Hero

Mariah Carey ~ Hero

There's a Hero
if you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Lord knows......
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time you'll find the away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
That a hero lies in you...
That a hero lies in you......




Hero'>http://www.imeem.com/people/yuh_CQ/music/QmlcnTe1/mariah_carey_hero/">Hero - Mariah Carey

good sunday!!

today's rafael's birthday, wanna take this opportunity to
wish him a great yr ahead!! haha.. JIA YOU RAFAEL IN ALL U ARE DOING!!

Oh ya.. basically slept the whole morning till early noon.
then went to Funan the IT mall to shop bit with my friend.
Eh.. wearing a shirt and jeans looks darn funny la.. haha..
but yea.. tt was the dress code that my friend told me to
wear. and i followed, since its the first time i am gg to watch
a piano recital.. =D

oh ya.. then at 4pm, we were at Victorian Concert Hall.
It was a piano concert by Sandi Koh. A concert, a recital.
it was really good! Seriously good..
It was something new! An experience tt i felt for the first
time. She just kept playing and playing for 1 and a half
hours. With afew breaks in the middle. but seriously.
For$8 a ticket, its well worth the money!
Ultimately, it broaden my knowledge of music..
oh ya, something crossed my mind.
I felt that, to be at the top of your specialty is really something
i can achieve. When watching her performance, i can't help
thinking in this way. And this defining qns keep wandering
in my 'state-of-mesmerized-brain'. "Do i wanna be ordinary
or Special?" Someone tt is just the normal guy.. or somebody
that is kinda special. Its a pretty tough qns. cause its really
subjective. And yes. i know i am an ordinary person. So qns
is whether I WANT to be special in my own ways or not.
Yea.. Cause its logically possible to be. And yes, the real
life example was right infront of me, on the stage, performing
the piano, playing the most acclaimed pieces that mankind
had composed.. Its really a treat to be able to be there.
And to be able to dream again. =)
Well ans to my brain's qns --> I will try my very very best,
to the best of my ability to be the best that i can be. Most
likely than not. I will reach that level. Because I know i can.

Oh ya, Rafael's birthday celebration was pretty good!!
and he got a shirt from everyone of us. Heard he chose it!
haha.. he must be so happy la!! its not cheap ok!! =D

okok.. gotta go rest soon. haha..

Guys have a good youth day tml!! =D
i got class though, adult alr.. haha..

First day of school!

Today's officially my first day of school!!

I was feeling all high and all when i woke up =D

It was like a lost love? ha..

I just felt that the break was way too long.

haha.. i just went to school and "HI-ed" everyone that is around.

I was feeling freaking happy luh~ haha..

Foreign lecturer's class is usually the beginning of school, that is usually
the case. So yea, i kinda tried to catch up with wat i missed out yesterday.
There was a gap already, after missing a class, i suddenly felt.
That shows how competitive things can get in Uni!
This starting lecture on Management Accounting and business is going to
get harder, but i am just going to study harder, ask more questions, and
if all things go well, do well!! Thats wat i see every single day now.
Now that school has started. I want to put my priorities back as School and
doing really well in it! Its not cheap! Seriously not cheap! I wanna make the
most out of it. =P
Volunteer work, insur work, other works, can take 2nd priority and so on.
Its going to be mugging and mugging early this sem. I don't wanna cram everything
till the last 2 months. Its really tiring. haha.. But yes, i will still do tat though.
Just that i wanna prepare even better this sem. =D
Paying school fees next week!! It totals up to $5.5k this sem. Its not cheap, like i say..
JIAYOU PENG YONG!!

Oh ya, i went to find a job today. haha.. At Starbucks Bukit Panjang Plaza, but
i got to go down to Holland V Starbucks to check out again =D
Hopefully i get a job tml. If not seriously, i will take up any jobs.
Need to start early(Work). Need to cover my basic expenses. I know i can't
pay my school fees, but at least i cover my basic expenses. That way my parents
will not have to worry so much about me in this aspect. And yes, opportunity costs
relieved!! My parents will have more $$ in their pockets and they can spend more
for themselves =)

Oh ya(again)! haha.. i found a pair of shoe finally! And its really a good timing! haha..
I mean there is already a discount of 30% to the $99.90 of shoe, and its green, its size
uk 3.5 and yes, what makes it wonderful is, tml there is a renovation sale, and yes,
there is an additional 10% sale for all the shoes in that shop! Ha.. So for one day only,
tml it costs $62.91!! Its an amazing price for a pair of running shoes from Rebok =D
Hope u will love it Lyon +P So after tml u got no excuses!! ha.. GO run!

Alright man, its 2:53am now.
Gotta go work on my HW!! haha.. at last i got HW!!

love school!

Yea.. so i will miss the first class of the sem. But i will catch up with
the rest asap! The class tomorrow will be from 2-5pm, that means
i will be real free in the morning. Got to do some prep for the evening
and also for class. Oh ya, got to pay school fees for the new sem again!
I bet i need to work hard lo.. when i told my parents that i got to pay
another 5k plus.. they went.. hur.. i mean, i understand, because its
a really big amount of money. Like i said, i don't have a choice, i have
to find a fixed paying job. If i don't, my wonderful parents will have to
start paying every single thing for more again. And that is not a good
thing because my parents need those cash to do their own things too.
I gotta be independent.

Oh ya! Tomorrow evening is going to be great! Yes... i will be missing the
YVIP'08 Committee meeting... but hey.. i will have to die die attend the
1st General Meeting of my volunteer organization! ha..
Its big to me, because its really a dream come true, to be able to make the
organization official and then having this General meeting just makes the
whole thing become suddenly, so real! I love it, Mazs, Dickson, Our dream
came true after 8 yrs bro!!
I bet tml will be interesting, with everyone that Share-On team is affiliated
with will be coming, it is a real big moment. I'll try to iron out some issues and
tell everybody what we have acheived in the past 8 yrs. Its a historic moment
for us, Share-on Team and yes, for me and my bros who were the pioneers
of this organization.

Oh ya, tml is also learning fest for daughter, jia you!!
And u seriously need some quality rest, well, after the carnival and dance?
haha.. Jia You Lyon!

Oh ya, those that haven't bought MINDS carnival ticket, pls do buy one?
because it will be helping MINDS--> Which is a school for the intellectually
disabled, they need funds. $2 is not much to ask for. DO HELP THEM OUT =D

Good Monday!!

Hey!!! Today was a great day for - 2 great news reached me!!

My NSF Unit, First Commando's Battalion won the Best Combat Unit Award again!!
Last year we won it for the 21st time. haha.. This year was the 5th time straight
the unit got it, and the 22nd time in the history of the competition!
I FEEL SO DARN PROUD LA!
It just means that they had gone through the tough trainings that we had for the
whole 1 yr and a half all the way to Atec!
It felt good! ha.. Cause it just means the guys have grown up ultimately to be someone!!
Not just anyone, but a really great one =D
I bet its a wonderful experience. Its tough, but its all worth it!
Its the highest accolade that one can achieve in their 2 years in army!
As a fellow commando fighter(thats what we call ourselves), i feel really proud when they
eventually march in NDP as the guards of honour! (those in all white and red beret!)
Memories just kinda flowed back like rushing water when my dad told me about the
news. haha. i was overwhelmed!
For Honour And Glory! Commando! -> Our Slogan.
