Hello :) and welcome
This blog is for all the "lost souls" (to quote Ji Inn :)) out there. No, it certainly doesn't have any answers(well not by me anyway), just a lot of questions and hopefully discussions. In a nutshell, this blog is for thoughts, ideas and discussions. For those I invited, go to profile and change yours unless you want it to keep it that way :)
I'm searching for something, but I'm not sure what it is ...

happy to be in 409 '09
and to have been in ES
Sorry, that's all about me. That's the point of this blog anyway, so go read it instead :)
Co-authors of this blog:
Jennifer and Jing Yi: my best friends for the past year, 9 months, 10 days and counting :)
Ji Inn: a friend I've grown close to, and talking with whom inspired this blog
Sharon: my new prayer buddy and the resident St. John's corporal-cum-attacker (what did I say about contradictions?)
Maddie and Fei Ya: friends around us who are close enough to turn 2-people conversations into 6-people ones
There are a lot more people I'm close to, but above are the people who make our 7-people (6 of us near the front, plus Jing Yi who sits at the back) conversations what they are.

At the beginning
The inspiration for the name of this blog came from a photo I found online, with a sign saying "Road Closed" against the backdrop of a blue sky. When there isn't a road to follow, take the sky :)
I haven't put it on the blog in case of copyright problems. The photo on the left is one I took through the car window when I happened to see a rainbow after the rain.
This blog is for all the "lost souls" (to quote Ji Inn :)) out there. No, it certainly doesn't have any answers, just a lot of questions and hopefully discussions.
I've been wondering. We all know where there's a will, there's a way, and that is something I believe in. But what if there's no will? I've been getting this feeling: I'm searching for something, but I'm not sure what it is . . .
Talking to Ji Inn over MSN made me realise I wasn't alone. I guess it's all part of being a teenager lost in this world. There're a lot of doubt and contradictions.
I'll start off by asking 2 questions:
1. What is most important to you? (You can have more than one thing for the same rank)
2. Which do you believe?
a) you have to be able to stand on your own feet before you fly.
b) you don't have to stand to fly.
c) they happen simultaneously. It's called life.interpret it as you want :)
For me, I rank my life work (if such a phrase does exist. I mean something I have a passion for, that dream I'm still searching for) and family and friends all as no. 1 for the first question.
And for 2, I used to believe in a). But I can hardly stand now. Doesn't mean I stop dreaming does it? So I'm hoping c) is possible.

And more than anything, this blog is about 7-people conversations shared @school and through MSN (see profile). We talk about questions like those above, but we also talk a lot about other stuff (like the 10 things that make you laugh till you cry!), and we hope you'll enjoy reading our blog :) (you will especially if you know 409 and our A Lit class). By the way, in case you find any of the stuff too hard to believe, it really happened.
