Been thinking about having Lasik done for the longest time ever. Whenever new technology surfaces, side effects you might get based on the old technology would be revealed due to the efforts of promoting the new technology. Hence my reservation getting Lasik done on my eyes. Yes, your eyes! One of the most precious gift you would ever receive and never take it for granted. We do, don't we. I often forget there are people who never had the convenience of having eyesight, they will never get to experience the colours and views we did or will see.
I have had friends who have done it and also friends who work at the Eye Centre and friends who could get discounts, the list goes on and i still can't muster enough courage to do it. I've spoken to a candidate today who have just done the procedure not long ago with a great ophthalmologist and i think i will go see this guy. His price range is a little steep but hey, it's an expensive asset to protect. The issue now would be the cost. Once i get a good placement and get the money in my pocket, i will get it done.
This is not an advertisement but here's the website to the clinic that i wanna get my Lasik done. http://www.lasiksurgeryclinic.com
On an entirely separate note, i have added some links on your rights. Click on them to access to the blogs of my loved ones. If you have a blog you wanna add on to my list, leave me a message and i'd do it immediately. Being legally trained, i reserve all rights to reject any request or to take down anyone's link at any point in time. I will have all the discretion i need on MY blog.

Ironies
My cousin from Malaysia is here. Let's just call her "Closest Distance". We spent a great deal of time together when we were younger. Whenever we were having school holidays, Grandma would bring me to this little town called Sungei Rengit, about 20 mins drive further down Desaru. We will take this little dodgy looking bumboat and spend a month there. There wasn't anything fun but it gives my Grandma some time off this concrete jungle and back to her home with clean air.
"CD" loves to play with my hair and will always style them into ponytails, plaits. Come to think of it, life really pull a fast one on her - She has got 3 kids, all boys. Frankly, and i hope she never sees this because i love her so much as a cousin - Her kids are terrors. They are so mischievous, you would just wanna slap them so hard, that they'll never get off the couch again to irritate you. Being the all nice person she is, she spoils her kids rotten as well.
"CD" is not actually related to me by blood. She's adopted because her birth parents couldn't afford to keep her but fortunately for her, my Uncle adopted her and gave her quite a comfy life. Then again, she's actually more of a real cousin than some hypocritical ones out there. My third uncle has 2 sons and both of them are totally, entirely and incorrigibly horrible and heartless. One of them looks like the blatant stupid murderer and the other one just seems like the geeky serial killer. You may think that i'm terrible to say such things about them but the blatant and stupid possible murderer did not even grief or wore white, which was supposed worn to shown grief, during the funeral. I think it's the severe inferiority complex that makes him wanna be better than others but face it, he is someone i'm ashamed of to be called my cousin. On one hand, i feel bad that i'm saying this BUT if you've gone through what i did, you would agree with me. This family has no respect for anyone and created havoc during my Grandma's funeral which in turn, caused me to blow up and cry. Bastards!
So no matter how unstoppable "CD"'s kids are, i always have the patience for them and i would still bring them out and buy them stuffs. How ironic!

Happy Back At Work
I can't believe i'll ever say this but i was looking forward to come back to work and really happy to be doing something on a supposedly, Blue Monday. It was pretty eventful for a Monday. "Comedy Boss"'s computer broke down so we were all trying to fix it. Well, with the exception of "Elitist Money Grabber" who sat, stuck on his chair all the time. Mind you, he was still sitting where he was even when sparks were flying and "Gorgeous Eye Lift" almost got electrocuted. The only time we managed to get him slightly concerned was when the computers all shut down, including his. There was partial blackout and he couldn't quite work for the time being. Being ultra concerned with the billions that he's not earning while the computeres were down, he suggested to get an electrician to get things fixed. WE DIDN'T NEED TO BE TOLD TO KNOW THAT! Duh!
My new colleague, a.k.a "Gym + Work Buddy" isn't quite in shape today so she's not in the office. Have i told you guys that she's actually really nice and i like her. I think we're gonna have a blast working together.
I know it may sound weird but i've just gotta say this for my own record. Work to me is like taking baby steps, it's slow and you fall but you've gotta bring yourself to get up and walk again. Right now, i'm moving and walking and learning how to walk efficiently so i can run. Some things are getting finalised now and my work is getting recognised and paid off. I'm glad things are working well for me now and i've just got to put in that much more to be able to run the marathon.

Once Again, A Spa Trip to Malacca
Yet another Malacca trip. The initial plans was to head for Tioman together with Monkey and his company and of course, plus Zhao Cai Mao. With a series of unfortunate events, we found out there were shortages of rooms at the resort we were suppose to be put up. We were suppose to share a hut with Monkey and Zhao Cai Mao and that seemed ok. But things kinda took a sharp and unexpected turn when Tubby called one afternoon and told me that we are not going for the Tioman trip. I didn't quite probe but it could be because of some changes in events or remarks. Then again, it was good afterall since our Malacca trip was great.
Most people might think that it's a boring place and it's so unhappening. I must admit it can get boring and meaningless. But the most important thing that kept the trip alive was that we had each other. Frankly, Malacca wasn't the first choice and we did wanted to make it for the Tioman trip but guess it's all fated and we'd just have to plan it on a later date.
We stayed at the same hotel we did the last time but the difference this time, i managed to book the spa and it was fabulous. It's the retreat i needed since a long long time. I was so afraid that it'd turn out to be a disappointed but thankfully, it didn't. We booked a room on Friday and got tranferred to a much bigger room on Saturday. It was a upgrade, guess it was a suite or something. Well it wasn't free, but it's still reasonable and the breakfast was stll worth waking up early for.
Regular trip to the night bazaar at Jonker was unavoidable since there was nothing else to do. Buying and chomping down food along the way was so much more fun than we hoped. I don't mind doing one of this trip every now and then just for the spa and food.
Right now, i shall save up my annual leaves and give my bank account some time to recuperate before we plan for our big trip to Melbourne in August.

Phantom Of The Opera
Bravo! I'm definitely not the first nor the last person to make sure a comment and it's absolutely brilliant. I love it. The precision, the set, the cast are all top notch.
I was trying hard to keep myself awake throughout the show, not because it made me sleepy. I just had a hard week i guess. Given a chance, i'd love to watch it again. Thank goodness the coming week is gonna be a short one.
Musicals in general, do not welcome late-comers and in fact, if you're late, you will not be admitted until the intermission. But given the nature of Singaporeans who simply love to be late for everything, was unsurprisingly late for the musical and interrupted everyone else. Due to the limited leg room, the whole role of people had to stand up when this couple came in late for the musical and unfortunately for all of us, they're seated right in the middle of the semi-circle. These people should just be taught a lesson and not be late.
On top of their punctuality issue, the management actually had to block out phone reception for the entire theatre. Despite all that, there were people who still took their phone out to check/play half way through the show. I'm not scomplaining just about everything but you know when the theatre is dark, someone whose playing with their phone will look damn obvious. C'mon, give the cast due respect. the rightfully deserve them and just because you've paid for it, doesn't mean you're king. I've paid to enjoy my show in peace as well!
After the show, i ran into Twiggy and Miss Pan Pac. Of all people, only Miss Pan Pac shared my schoolgirl craziness squirming over the body of the Phantom and how cute we can imagine him to be just by the size of his shoulders. Ooohh...Swoooonnn...
I'd love to catch the Phantom again in my lifetime. It's great and all worth it.

Another Home
Another Home
Not discussing on how I’ve shuttling between Tubby’s place and my own. It’s the song Home by Chris Daughtry.
Since his American Idol days, I’ve always thought that “this guy could sing”. Well I’ve always tried to avoid saying I love rock music because I’ve never thought that I’d like them. Some people may think that it’s really cool but if asked my favourite genre of music, I’ll say bossa nova without hesitation. I don’t know much about bossa nova I must admit but I love listening to them. They do make me feel more relaxed and I love how it feels. Rock music, on the other hand, doesn’t exactly get classified into chillout music but I always catch myself loving rock. When I say rock, it’s got to be more soft rock, “emo” rock and not the hard or heavy metal sort. I think Tua Tow and the gang has a large part to play. I used to hang out with them while they were playing those emo rock on their guitars and I’ve loved it since. I always find myself sucking into listening to these songs over and over again and before I know it, I’m lip syncing to the words.
Chris Daughtry - Home
I'm staring out into the night
Trying to hide the pain
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.
And the pain you feels a different kind of pain.
I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home.
Well I'm going home.
The miles are getting longer, it seems,
The closer I get to you.
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.
But your love, remains true.
And I don't know why.
You always seem to give me another try.
So I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all,
And then some you don't want.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all, yeah.
Oh, well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.

Stubborn Mule
One day my stubbornness is just going to be the demise of me. My reluctance to give in and my insistance on my stand will just make my life miserable. To think that i've gone through 26 years of stubborn life and should know very well by now that it's not doing me any good. I have not change and not very sanguine with any possibility of that ever happening. I guess as we get older, priorties change, we will learn to bear with things and keep them within than to let it blow up. However, the stubbornness is likely to stay.
Stubbornness is not an entirely a character flaw. It's just the way some people are i guess. To stand by one's decision should be encouraged. We should never bow down to untruths or wrongs. However, when you know certain decision is going to be life changing, then i reckon it's about time we just take a step back and think about what life has to offer had we not insist to voice our opinion or think we're right.
If only i have a knob to turn down my stubbornness when it is not helping my life in anyway...

Fuck You!
I do not need anyone to do me a favour when i have legs to walk. When i don't talk when i'm upset, that is purely because i do not wish to get into any sort of arguement. I do have a fundamental human right to get upset.
Fuck the world. I don't need anyone. Fuck you!
Fuck the world. I don't need anyone. Fuck you!

Movie Review: Priceless
Taken from GV's website: Jean, a shy waiter working in a grand hotel, is mistaken for a young millionaire by beautiful, scheming adventuress Irene. When she discovers his lowly status, Irene beats a quick retreat. But love struck Jean has no intention of letting her escape, and pursues her to the Cote d'Azur. Quickly running out of money, he adopts his beloved's lifestyle, setting himself up as a gigolo and moving into a magnificent luxury hotel. Irene at last accepts this new Jean. She starts to give him advice, she grows closer and closer to him, not realising that love is working its subtle magic on her too.
The acting is fabulous. Audrey Tautou is beautiful (She's the girl from Amelie and The Da Vinci code). She's got the legs and abs every girl would die for. The dresses she wore, Wow. The shoes, Wow. The hotel, Wow. The parties, Wow. The love without a price tag, triple Wow.
This is the sort of lifestyle every girl longs to live without the pre-requisite to sleep with disgusting rich men though. Loads of shopping, beautiful hotels and beaches, chilling out and not having to work on a weekday afternoon but then again, how boring would it be to be living it out without meaning to life. I am glad that both of them found true love in the end but in reality, this will never happen. C'mon, what's for lunch?

Having said the above, this is a must watch movie.

Ministry of Sound
It was a night of boys night out and i have decided to tag along. Needless to say, loads of alcohol and smoke. How unhealthy. Haha but i'm totally out of it, i was so awake, even at the end of the day, i feel that i could have flown a plane home.
I guess Tubby did enjoy himself with his bunch of bachelor classmates. I did try to run through my phonelist for single girls but they're either taken or they wouldn't be interested in men in general.
Got a call from Inuka when we were heading for Double O and we ended up at MoS since the bunch of fitties were there. Good to catch up...
But when we were there, there was this bunch of boys, seems like young Korean chaps, who were dancing behind Inuka. Given the protective nature i have over Inuka, seeing that she was obviously uncomfortable and possibly disturbed, i shoved her into the spot where i was dancing and took hers. The irritatant bunch then tapped me on my arm repeatedly. I got really peeved and warned them that it wasn't not funny. Sir Single and Available just went stright out to warn them with his "bigger than my face" fist. I guess the guys felt threatened and left. Had he not done that, i must have put my fist into the guys' groin with as must weight as i could muster. I wished i had the courage to do that the first time they tapped on my arm.
For that reason, i'd avoid MoS at all cost in future.

Personal Updates
Been rather busy with work and Tiger's condition so haven't got much time to blog. Just a general updates to keep those of you out there who are concerned weith Tiger in the loop since Tiger can't sms you and tell you he's in the ICU or when he's discharged.
Tiger's fine except for some sort of permanent damage to one of his kidneys but all in all, he's healthy and running. In fact, the blood test shows that he's fine just that he may need to be on special diet for the rest of his life. And considering his tender age, it's not going to be easy for him. Please don't ask me if he's a girl or guy because i have no idea of how to reply. Just see it for yourself. I'm sticking to using him for now.
As for me, i'm fine. There's some new colleague at work and she's been great. Very sweet Aussie girl. Will update once i get to know her better.

Popcorn Review: Provoked (3 1/2 out of 5 popcorns)
Happy Labour Day! To me this day doesn't mean anything more than a public holiday, yoohoo! Enjoying every moment of it...
Went to watch "Provoked" last night. Not exactly a fantastic show but i liked it. Not so much because i've read alot of the case, more that it's a show on how women got together and stood strong against the world. It's truly brave to be able to stomp abuse and get out of it unscathed, almost. I would like to get everyone to watch but knowing most of you would curse and me and tell me that this is more of a DVD show. I think shows like these should be encouraged so people in general are more aware of the true events happening in life and what we've got to do to stop or encourage it. i'm sure there're loads of other cases that can and should be made into movies as well.
We'll be watching Spiderman tonight. I know alot of people must be cursing and swearing that i've got the tickets and could watch it but frankly, i'm not very excited because i've never been a Spiderman fan. then again, if it's a good movie by itself without any inking to the previous episodes, i'd probably enjoy it even more.
Was planning to watch Nightmare Detective but apparently it's off the chart. Damn it.
Has anyone watched Born Into Brothels? It's the sort of documentary movie. If you've watched it, could you give me a mini review? I can post it on the blog??!! I think i'd wanna watch it...
Is this going to be a movie week or what?

R v Ahluwalia
Still remembered this case from my Criminal Law classes. One of the landmark cases that brings the difference between men and women's mindset and the latter shouldn't be punished unnecessarily for not reacting like a man.
Gist of the case as follows: Kiranjit Ahluwalia entered into an arranged marriage and suffered years of abuse from her husband. In May 1989 she threw petrol into his bedroom and set it alight. Her husband died six days later of his burns. She was convicted of murder on 7 December 1989 and appealed against her conviction. The first ground of appeal was that the judge wrongly directed the jury that a plea of provocation depended on establishing a ‘sudden’ loss of self-control; the second was that he failed to take into account that the defendant was suffering from ‘battered woman syndrome’, producing a state of ‘learnt helplessness’. The successful ground of appeal was the third. Medical evidence was available but not used at the first trial showed that the defendant was suffering from a major depressive disorder; this could have provided the basis for a successful plea of diminished responsibility. The conviction was quashed and a retrial ordered.
Before the case, murder could only be mitigated with provocation and diminished responsibility. Provocation must be immediate and DR must be some sort of lost of mind. Ahluwalia did not fulfil either requirement and failed in both appeals. On the third appeal, her lawyer brought up battered women syndrome. Women do not get provoked like men whose reaction is almost immediate. These anger stay in women and get built up slowly only to erupt like a volcano one day.
Southall Black Sisters were the ones who helped Ahluwalia out of murder and retrialed for voluntary manslaughter which greatly reduced the sentencing. Southall Black Sisters, a not-for-profit organisation, was established in 1979 to meet the needs of black (Asian and African-Caribbean) women. Their aims are to highlight and challenge violence against women; empower them to gain more control over their lives; live without fear of violence; and assert their human rights to justice, equality and freedom. For more than two decades they have been at the forefront of challenging domestic and gender violence locally and nationally, and campaigning for the provision of support services to enable women and their children to escape violent relationships. This case also brought women being abused out into the light and gives women all around the world more recognition and acknowledgement.
The movie, "Provoked" is a true story based on this landmark case, stars Aishwarya Rai, Naveen Andrews, Miranda Richardson, Robbie Coltrane, Nandita Das and Steve McFadden. Aishwarya Rai, supposedly the highest paid actress in India, was also Miss World 1994. Recently married to Bollywood star, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya was once abused (says my colleague, Mrs Simpson), which may also explain why her performance in this show won many critics over. Although there are varying comments and some mentioned that the show was not factual enough, well a movie's a movie. Mundane things in life may not command box office, unfortunately. I am going to watch it tonight and hopefully, i'll enjoy it.

Lazy Sunday Afternoon
Lazy Sunday afternoon and we're all sitting at The Book Cafe doing nothing. Somehow, i kinda enjoy it. We're single, free, without kids and enjoying the silence. Well, minus off the sound of construction work from the nearby site. In Singapore, the sound is everywhere and really, there's no way you can escape that. Sometimes, this is still way better than kids screaming away. Don't misunderstand me. I love kids. In fact, i love Tubby's niece, Lala, to bits. Just that it's good to know you can always return them to their parents when they start their nonsense.
Blue skys, good sun without the humidity... This is simply a great day for the sun the sand and the sea. Tubby's gotta finish his dissertation draft which explains why we're all here. I'm not lamenting. In fact, i'm glad i can be here for him and spend this lazy afternoon with him. I kinda love it here doing nothing, chatting on MSN, think about work, clearing emails, checking friendster... Besides, Monkey and Zhao Cai Mao are here as well.
Have anyone of us ever looked up into the sky and see how blue it actually can be. Yes i know the sun is colourless but when i was in Shanghai, the sky is actually GREY. The sky reflects the colour of the ocean and apparently, it's gray in Shanghai. It makes you feel really gloomy for no reason why but here, blue skies makes you happy. Well you can't compare with Boracay or Bora Bora, it's as fantastic as you get in a built up city.
Now i wanna go Bora-Bora... Hmmm

My First Vaio
Got my aesthetically pleasing laptop but then again, it could have looked better if my pockets were deeper. All in all, i'm happy because it will serve me just fine since i'll be shuttling between my own place and my second home.
On an entirely different note, Tiger will be having his sex change operation next week and he will be a she by next week. Guess the hormornes injections will eradicate my worries on how he's going to pee with the habitual leg lifting pee posture.
Went for the Estee Lauder private sale just now and bought myself a ton of stuffs and hopefully, not junk. The crowd is insane and i spent more than an hour try to get to the end of the queue and another hour squeezing through the crowd inside. The best buy for today would be a travel size brush set. Been to countless of these sale and could never get my hands on some brushes. this is the first and the best. I couldn't bring myself to walk anymore because i was beginning to amass things i don't need and i don't want that to happen. I'm becoming Estee Lauder's sale expert... Haha!
Blood Red's manicure shop is opening today. Those of you interested for a self-pampering session, head for The Nail Loom Block 218 Bedok interchange. nice quaint outlet and i'm sure you'll go off with gorgeous nails.
Went to Mustafa last night with Monkey and Zhao Cai Mao to get Blood Red's gift. It was tiring to be lugging that huge box but all in all, it was fun to be able to do something for your best friend i guess.

I Can Be Purple, I Can Be Anything You Like!
Had a dream last night that i was turning fat. Think I've really gotta do something about it. I should stick to my low fat lunches and not make regular trips to the point point shop and have copious amount of yummy curry on my rice. Gym... Er... I still try but this week's a little different.
Coloured my hair back to ash-brown last night. According to my colleagues, this colour does complement my skin colour but purple's still funky. I like the purple alot but unfortunately, it doesn't give me the professional aura that I'm supposed to exude. So i had it back to a colour a little more professional looking and soon, I'd need to have a suit ready in the office for emergency meetings. And sooner than that, I'd need to develop an international accent??!! What is an international accent? To sound like Flying Dutchman?
I can be brown, i can be blue, i can be violet sky... I can be hurtful, I can be purple, I can be anything you like... Gotta be green, gotta be mean, gotta be everything more... Why don't you like me, why don't you like me, why don't you walk out the door... In case you're wondering, these are lyrics to the song, Grace Kelly, by Mika. My favourite song for now...
We will be going to Melbourne and Sydney in August. Yippee! I hope... If Monkey and Zhao Cai Mao are to fall through for these GRAND PLANS, we'll just have to plan them ourselves.
But before that, I'd love to go on a trip back to Malacca, yes again!, to have a retreat session at the spa. Can we? (Imagine Puss-n-Boots' twinkling innocent eyes)

Lips Of An Angel
Love this song so much and thought i'd like to share it with you guys. One of those emo-rock but great sing-along, be it the bathroom or when you're alone in the car.
Hinder - Lips Of An Angel
Honey why you calling me so late?
It's kinda hard to talk right now.
Honey why are you crying? Is everything okay?
I gotta whisper 'cause I can't be too loud
Well, my girl's in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It's really good to hear your voice say my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel
It's funny that you're calling me tonight
And, yes, I've dreamt of you too
And does he know you're talking to me
Will it start a fight
No I don't think she has a clue
Well my girl's in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It's really good to hear your voice say my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful

I'm A Wild HOG!
Took the weekend to visit Grandma's grave and to pay respects. Brought Tubby there and even my cousin thought that Grandma would be very happy to see him and that he's treating me well.
Instead of my uncle's place, we stayed at Sebana Cove. Not the 5 star hotel sort but very resort feel and definitely relaxing.
We thought coming back on Sunday early afternoon could give us more time to rest but apparently NOT. Went to watch Wild Hogs with Monkey and Zhao Cai Mao. Good show. Hilarious! Would recommend to those who needs a laugh.
Dinner was disastrous but mango pomelo will always salvage the situation.
Was late this morning. My bones were aching... I need a break...
In the process of planning Melbourne & Sydney for August. Hong Kong plans was aborted. Will have to miss my colleague's wedding.

Could Be A Miracle...
Tiger went for an ultra sound scan last night and Singapore's top vet, Dr Jean-Paul Ly, told us that neither his kidney nor liver is severely damaged and would not be fatal. All he needs now is a sex change operation. I'm not trying to put neutering into a joke, the fact is, he seriously needs to change his gender. That would entails removing his whole male reproduction system and not just his balls. Well if that does him good, i guess we're happy. The only thing now is the cost. As alot of you may already know, this whole hospitalisation has burnt this huge hole in my pocket as well as my parents'. I don't think we can afford the operation anymore. But no matter what, we have to do it, else we risk his kidney and whole urinary tract having stones again. Wish him luck and pray hard that my Dad strikes lottery now. My old man is severely stressed over this whole saga financially and i wish i could help him. There's only so much i can do and i'm at my wits end. We need more than this miracle but even then, we're already extremely lucky to have Tiger back and running. Thank you... Everyone who has helped in his recovery or was there for me with your ever generous emotional support.

Updates On Tiger
Just a quick update.
Keeping my fingers and toes crossed. Tiger's problem could just be the liver and not kidney, which is fantastic news. At least it's not terminal or fatal. Our liver constantly heals itself so it goes the same for dogs.
We'll see how the test today goes...

Don't Take Tiger Away From Me. Please!
Tiger might die anytime.
His kidney has failed. Treatment may not be sufficient.
I think it could be my fault. If i had brought him to the vet earlier, he might not have died. To look at him now, after losing all that weight, it pains me to send him back to the hospital. He's not eating nor drinking. He's in terrible pain.
The vet was being optimistic to my parents but i was afraid that she's actually giving them false hopes. Tiger is like my Dad's companion. I don't know how is my Dad going to take this since my Grandma just passed away recently. No other person nor dog is going to replace Tiger. He's my first ever dog and he's like my best friend. When i'm upset, i'll go home and to se him wag his tail to welcome me home, all the pain seemed to have disappeared for that moment. He'll smile when i speak to him. I'm not crazy, dogs do smile, if you have tried to pay attention to them. Tiger is like my best friend.
Tiger is not old. In human terms, he's merely into his 40s. My heart is in pain. I wish i could save him. Let alone the hefty medical bills, the pain is killing my heart slowly. i don't know if i have the heart to love another dog again. He's the best to me and will always be such. He's been there for me throughout my exams, my loss of kin, my disappointments with life and in life. Tiger means the world to me and he's leaving me soon.
Please allow a miracle to happy. I want to see him walk to me to get sayang-ed and kisses, jump and doing a million of other silly things just to ask for treats. Please don't take Tiger away from me. Please...

Changes...
The office seems so different without Ah Joo Dee today. Apparently, we can expect more changes to come during the span of this week. "Long Lash" is in town and he proposed a new seating arrangements for us. So before close of business today, we're going to be moving tables again. I roughly know where i'll be sitting but trust me, nothing is firmed up, even after you're well-planted in the new seat.
My career is going on a very different path. It's going to be major. Very much make or break. Sort of. Nothing has been announced so i shall keep it hush hush until concrete announcement is being made.
Today is the last day of peace and order. Back to chaos tomorrow... Right now, i only wanna work and be super efficient today.

Ah Joo Dee
Finally, you have left us in search of greener pastures. My emotions are mixed. You were my bestest colleague, someone who has taught me how to register candidates and polite no. You will remain one of the best people i'll ever work with. It's inevitable sad and tears just flow down uncontrollably when i had to say bye. I know i'll see you again but i also know, i won't walk into the office with a sugar roll on my desk anymore or have anyone i can buy them for when i feel like giving someone a small treat. I wish i can make you stay by buying you a SME every morning. But i also know, you'll be happier from today onwards. I can only wish you all the best. Have fun in Sydney and do come back to lunch with me. We also had to cover each other during lunch. Now that i don't have to cover anyone, i also don't get to eat myself poor with you. This bottomless pit will miss you. Thank you for everything you've done for me. You mean alot to me in my little insignificant life. I'll miss the team of Babooshka boss, DGJ and you, Ah Joo Dee. Not forgetting comedy boss who completes the team. I'll really miss the old office. I understand the need to grow into a bigger office and expand but i'm sure, time with you guys will always be very important part of my life.

What Pie Are You?
| You Are Cherry Pie |
 You're the perfect combo of innocent and sexy Those who like you enjoy a contradiction |
Dreams Catcher
What is possibly the weirdest dream you've ever had?
C'mon, share your oddest dream.
I'll start the ball rolling...
The one most memorable dream i had was when i was a kid. That's probably the only dream that i've ever had that i've remembered vividly since day uno. - I was strolling down the estate i used to live right after dinner, accompanied by my family members. Then a Mummy (as in those Egyptian horror films) came along in a wheelchair and started chasing me. The rest of my family members were totally unaware that i was being chased by the Mummy no matter how loud i screamed at them, my tears just came rolling down. Well, of course, i was on my feet trying to escape and not be caught by the Mummy. Now for the boring part, i simply ran and the Mummy kept chasing for the rest of the dream until i woke up.
When i was brought back to reality, i turned back to look at my pillow. It was soaking with tears. I must have been wailing like a tap . It sounds silly but hey, it did scared the shit out of me.
Has another dream last night and (using words Juju used) Easy Peasy Lemon Squeesy compared to the Mummy dream. I was walking down the street with Chubby Teddy, now better known as Tubby. We passed by this funeral parlour which deep down me, i knew it was also a bakery although there were no obvious signs that it's a bakery. I went there to buy a box of "Hei Bang" (Cantonese wedding cake), how irony right, buying wedding pastries at a funeral parlour. It's damn odd. Then we sat by the road side, just like the "wu jiao ji", a 5 feet walkway which was a common sight in Singapore in the 50s - 60s. Then my bf's ex-gf and her friend came to sit down with us and we chatted. She was holding his hand but i thought well, ok they're just friends right. Then he told me when we started going out, he was still with her. It freaked me out. But what was worse was that my bf started rambling off in fluent Bahasa. To put things straight, Tuddy did had this Malay gf who happened to be an ex-schoolmate of mine but it wasn't her in the dream lah, it was a Chinese girl??!! Ok back to the dream, he rambled off in Bahasa and i was so freaked, i just rolled my eyes and walked off in a daze.
Look! We all had our fair share of weird dreams. Do share yours with me. Well, apart from those unprepared for exams, teeth falling off, falling down, late for work, not packed for long travels, sort of dreams. Most of us would probably had, at some point in time, at least one of the dreams above.

Big Fish Small Fish
"Long Lashes", my big big big boss, says that he's going to rearrange the seats today. I wonder if that's good news for me. I have my doubts. As you guys know, i'm not someone with the best luck around and i always end up getting the worst so it might be worse than what it is now. Well, i'm getting used to this and it's not as bad. Guess it's blessing in disguise. I'm putting in so much more effort into what i'm doing, not so much that someone is looking at me but i'm not so easily distracted by other things.
Keeping my fingers crossed, i might just have made my first ever placement all done by myself. Beginning from the search to the calling and the crazy arrangements of interviews and organising flights and hotels, meeting with the candidates and client, the worrying if i'll ever get an offer... Now it's all coming together. Albeit it's not big, but it was way bigger than it actually was intended to be and i've made one guy possibly the happiest guy on earth. And also, it's a first for me.
I did one together with DGJ sometime ago but without her help pointing out to me, look this is a perfect candidate, i wouldn't have been able to place that girl. Then again, i must say that i've learnt a great deal from DGJ and my Comedy Boss through these two placements. Yippee!
I know these are peanuts little placements compared to those astronomical once my colleagues are placing but i'm happy because this actually shows that i'm doing the right thing and it's paying off. Good Lord.
Keeping fingers crossed until i see the cheque, and oh well, and also for the whole year while the guy is in the company.
Keeping my fingers crossed, i might just have made my first ever placement all done by myself. Beginning from the search to the calling and the crazy arrangements of interviews and organising flights and hotels, meeting with the candidates and client, the worrying if i'll ever get an offer... Now it's all coming together. Albeit it's not big, but it was way bigger than it actually was intended to be and i've made one guy possibly the happiest guy on earth. And also, it's a first for me.

Saga De Malacca
I can't say the Easter trip to Malacca was amazing fun but it did began with a bang. I can foresee that we'll be repeating this saga quite a bit over coffeeshop chats. All in all, i did enjoy myself.
Like i mentioned earlier, we were intending to take "Alibaba's" mini bus up but after crossing the Causeway, we happily thought we were all geared and ready for the 2 hours drive. We couldn't be more wrong. We were pulled over by the Malaysian traffic police just as we exited the customs. Apparently, the license for the bus to cross over to our neighbouring country expired. In the usual Malaysian fashion, they had a long chat with us, putting up the usual show that they can't take bribes and all. In the end, we had to be escorted by the traffic police back to Singapore land. When we were dropping that traffic police off, we found out that we still had to pay like RM 500 to appease him even if it means that we still got to go back home and take the cars.
So we came back and took the cars. Monkey's car was alright, nice car but trust me, if you had to be stuck in the back seat with the sun tanning your right arm, it wasn't something i was looking forward to. I wished we took Xiaobai. At least i could entertained myself on the way there. Had a silent fight with Chubby Teddy in the car but wasn't angry with him, i guess i was just uncomfortable. And all of you who knows me, when i'm either uncomfortable or tired or hungry, i'm extremely grouchy.
Finally when we arrived at the hotel, i found that my long awaited spa sessions were all fully booked. It was hugely disappointing. I really needed a knead on my shoulder and down my back. Luckily, the downhill part of the whole trip ended here.
Cut the whole story short, we ate and ate, walk and walk, then eat again, occasionally shopped a little then back to eating and sleeping. It's weird that one of the most enjoyable part of the trip was playing Uno with Chubby Teddy, Monkey and Zhao Cai Mao. We took some nice pictures which i'll attempt to post it on when i can.
It was an ok trip but the crowd made it complete.

Tiger Can't Pee
Everytime my parents take a holiday, something bound to happen to Tiger but this time round, it's far more severe than any of the previous times. Weeks ago, Tiger had traces of blood in his pee but we kinda brushed it off without paying much attention. Big mistake! On Friday night, he couldn't pee so i thought, well maybe we should just observe him for a day or so. In the morning, i received an MMS from my brother, a voice recording of Tiger's whining. After hearing it, i starting making phonecalls to various vets but they were all fully booked and would only see the animal in an emergency case. It didn't take long for us to know that it's an emergency because at late afternoon, i received a call from his nanny telling me that Tiger has gone into convulsion. I knew the urine will be toxic to his kidneys but i was just too dumb to link the different pieces of information together.
I then got his nanny to send him to Simei because they close later on Saturdays. I specifically told his nanny to take a cab and I'll reimburse her and this was an hour before the clinic closes. I took a cab down from town only to find that she's still home waiting for her husband to pick her up in his huge industrial lorry. I was furious but thank God i didn't blow and was able to hold my cool. My parents would have killed me if i ever raised my voice at her. They were in love with her!
The vet then tried to make him pee but his renal or whatever passage was blocked so they have to poke a hole and draw his pee out. By then he was all soft and his eyes were all blood shot. His pee were all bloody. We had to send him to Balestier immediately to the Animal Hospital and the vet at Simei would go over when she's done. While waiting aimlessly and our eyes half closing, Dr Ly (Top vet in Singapore) walked in and chatted with us. Upon hearing Tiger's plight, he declared Tiger's case an emergency and you can imagine the drama that followed. Everyone in the clinic was summoned for Dr Ly to perform the operation on Tiger himself with the help of at least 2 other vets. I knew the cost was going to be shy high since Dr Ly was pretty well known for his skills and the cost of seeing him. Just to put things in view, to get a consultation with Dr Ly takes about 3-4 weeks in queue. I was glad Tiger was in good hands and cost wasn't exactly on my mind. Well, he did tell me it will cost a couple of thousands of dollars.
That night alone came up to almost $3000 excluding other costs like hospitalisation and such but frankly, it's not expensive to save my dog's life. And for 3 vets to be operating on him at the same time, it's a reasonable price to know that he's in good hands. However, i already had problems with a shocking credit card bill. Remember i mentioned earlier about a low credit card bill last month? That's because it's all billed to me this month. How clever. How unfortunate.
Tiger is already recovering. He's still in the ICU but he can at last wag his tail. He's not moving much nor is he eating. They had to force feed him some nutritious liquid to keep him alive and he's still on drip in order to flush out the impurities in his kidney. This is the first time in my life i heard that dogs have ICU and that they are given epidurals as a form of regional anesthesia. The vets removed say 20 stones from his kidney and his urinary passage which we later found out was the thing blocking his pee from coming out.
I'm just glad he's getting better by the day. He'll be discharged tomorrow. Will update you guys on his blood test and the lab test results of the stones tomorrow.

Work Stress or Irritating Colleague
Generally, people at work will know me as the happy, cheeky girl who's willing to do whatever she told, well if it falls within my job scope that is. I rarely reject people unless i'm overwhelmed but i'm no pushover. I'm lucky to have understanding colleagues and such but recently, some people are just getting on my nerves. I feel that i was pushed back to the starting point and the whole torture peocess has to start all over again. When people can't handle their stress and treats you like a trashcan, you'll be as upset as i am. I was almost breaking into tears but i remembered "DGJ" told me one last thing before she left this company. In order to gain respect in any working environment, i have to be alot more serious. Life is such, you're being judged for who you put out to be and not who you really are and what you can do.
I needed to vent the frustration out so bad that i emailed my bosses and told them in quite an angry tone that i was being "mentally abused" and being thrown PA jobs which were totally degrading for me. I'm like a heavy train going uphill, it seems like you're getting there and it's taking a long time and you're glad you're moving but when someone in the train keep jumping and kept the train from moving any more forward, instead pushing it back to base point, it's really vexing and dangerous. Well, it's all over. I just hope that i can have more of a poker face next time and learn to be more plastic.

Senseless SG Boys
In general, Singaporean girls do not need their guys to open their doors nor pull our their chair but we're not going to deny that it feels good to be pampered once in a while. I must say i'm lucky because CT knows how to treat a girl right, not just me, guess it boils down to having 3 elder sisters who probably drilled him to walk the route leading to "the bright side". Well, he's got me, guess that's an incentive? For him at least? Oh crap...
My message is: "Singaporean boys in general (I STRESS, NOT ALL OF THEM), do not know how to treat a lady right." It doesn't have to be your sister, your girlfriend nor your Mom. Just gestures to know that you're still human enough to care about people around you. Take for example, my hands were full today with bags and such, the men just walked past me with no intention to open the heavy door for me and when they do it to let themselves in, they didn't bother to keep it open for 5 more seconds so that i can get it??!! WTF!
Guys, you've got to learn to be more gentlemanly. You'll never know who you're going to meet. You are constantly being observed and one day, it might hit back at you. When you're nice, you will be remembered. I never thought white guys were in any way superior and in fact, i've only dated Asian guys. Don't let the girls remember the white trash and leave you behind. Stop complaining Singaporean girls don't like Singaporean boys.

Xiao Bai
Finally, "Xiao Bai" aka "Bunny" is here. I took it for a ride and you can really feel the turbo when the little meek looking car surged forward, it almost felt like someone installed rockets at the back of the car, pushing the car forward with the combustion. Yeah talking about combustion, it's probably not the most fuel efficient car around. Nonetheless, it's a good and fun drive. Well, "Monkey" and "CT" would find it hard to believe when i made a sharp turn of more than 90 degrees at a speed sedning your hair flying, technically in excess of 100km/h, it didn't prove to be so fun to them after all. But guys, trust me, i had my eyes opened all the time, i knew we're going to be safe and we could all feel the grip of the car alright? But when CT said, "Don't ever do that again... Well unless I'm drunk". That, freaked me out! I'll never be indecisive on the road again, although i drive like a bloody man.

Roadtrip, Yet Again.
Plans for Good Friday had been planned and changed yet again. The initial plans of going to Bangkok,then maybe Hong Kong, then became Bali then now, we're going to Malacca. It's like predestined i can't go anywhere too far, at most just across the Causeway. But we'll be going with "Monkey" and "Zhao Cai Mao" together with Monkey's colleagues. Guess it should be fun considering we'll be taking "Alibaba's" super bus so we'll all be crapping along the way. Simply can't wait...
We have so much plans on our palatte, i wonder when will we ever materialise them. Given by next year we wouldn't need to fork out some fixed expenses and possibly better remuneration along the way, we should be able to go for our Italian escape and Japanese retreat. Well unless i decide to do my NY bar, then i'll have to put it back to a later date. It's gonna cost me a bomb and i must say, i'm very tempted, as much as my current job doesn't require it, it will act like a safety net for me in case i'd ever want to go into practice, in fact, it'd help even if i were to go in-house.
I'm quite peeved at the moment with my work. Not that i'm not enjoying it, in fact i'm in tremendous joy to be moving forward. It has to boil down to the seating arrangement. Frankly, i'm alright here. However, a new colleague, well also a Aussie girl (maybe that's why), will be getting my favourite seat, the seat that i've always wanted. Window seat! Get it? And me, being here for these few months, working like a farm cow gets the everyone can see me, not so private seat. I'd love to reiterate, it's not that i'd go stuffs that i'm not allowed to do, it's just the ultimate discomfort of everyone looking into your screen. It's probably the first and only screen you can see when someone walk past the door. It's like big and bright staring right in your face when you step in. Fuck!
It's Natas fair this weekend, maybe i can start planning a small trip after "CT's" exams. We should take some time off this irritating and dog-eat-dog world.
I need to go for retail therapy...

Intuition Kills
Have you girls ever felt when people interact, you get the "there's something between them" sort of feeling? Or could you girls feel the concern someone has for another in excess of a platonic relationship? Why am i just asking the girls? Simply because girls are the idiots who read too much and think too much and will more often than not, end up hurting only herself. I have to admit that i really felt it but i also have to come to terms that our intuition may not always be right. Even if it was, I've now chosen to think otherwise. It is not worth the while to destroy trust solely based on intuition. Intuition may sometime or one day, cause our doom. We've been too reliant on it for the largest part of our lives.
On an abnormal note, the burst of emotions can relief huge amounts of stressed piled up for some people. For me, i just remained too calm, too cold. I barely showed any emotion or shed a tear but inside me, i was just tearing up, entirely devastated by my own idiotic imagination. I felt that as per every other times, God was trying to take away things that doesn't belong to me, maybe because i don't deserve it, maybe i never had it, maybe... However, the love built in this short span has the elasticity and strength to withstand all these and it just emerged stronger. I'm enjoying more than ever. The joy of being in each other's arms just greatly increased in magnitude. The morning was grey and cloudy but the breeze was comfortable and you know, sunlight was just shining through without the heat. It felt good. You know the sun will shine through later.

Anger Management
Arguements are inevitable in relationships and i'm glad we haven't got much to argue. We have our occasionally over the board, taken too far sort of jokes but we know this doesn't affect how we feel about each other. I must say that the fear did set in when the silence slowly creeps into the discomfort zone but i know that for the love we share, it will end soon. The end hug was one of the most comfortable ever, to know that there's someone there to bear my nonsense, untimely silence and inability to take serious jokes.
Like we promised each other, we should always talk it through. Don't ever coop those anger inside you. Speaking about which, just got this email from "DGJ" on anger management, Enjoy!
When you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out on someone you don't know. I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phone call I'd forgotten to make. I found the number and dialled it. A man answered, saying "Hello." I politely said, "This is David. Could I please speak with Robert Campbell ?"
Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear "Get the right f*ckin number!" and the phone was slammed down on me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. When I tracked down Robert's correct number to call him, I found that I had accidentally transposed the last two digits.
After hanging up with him, I decided to call the 'wrong' number again. When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled " You're a C*nt!" and hung up. I wrote his number down with the word 'C*nt' next to it, and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a really badday, I'd call him up and yell, " You're a C*nt!" It always cheered me up.
When Caller ID was introduced, I thought my therapeutic 'C*nt' calling would have to stop. So, I called his number and said, "Hi, this is John Smith from BT. I'm calling to see if you're familiar with our Caller ID Program?"
He yelled "NO!" and slammed down the phone. I quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're a C*nt!"
One day I was at Lakeside Shopping Centre, getting ready to pull into a parking spot. Some guy in a gunmetal grey Land Rover cut me off and pulled into the spot I had patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I'd been waiting for that spot, but the idiot ignored me.
I noticed a "For Sale" sign in his back window, so I wrote down his number.
A couple of days later, right after calling the first C*nt (I had his number on speed dial,) I thought that I'd better call the Land Rover C*nt, too. I said, "Is this the man with the gunmetal grey Land Rover for sale?"
"Yes, it is", he said. "Can you tell me where I can see it?" I asked.
"Yes, I live at 129 Alice Street, in Ilford. It's a terraced house, and the car's parked right out in front."
"What's your name?" I asked. "My name is Steve Hansen," he said.
"When's a good time to catch you, Steve?" "I'm home most days as I'm currently unemployed."
"Listen, Steve, can I tell you something?" "Yes?" "Steve, you're a C*nt!" Then I hung up, and added his number to my speed dial, too.
Now, when I had a problem, I had two arseholes to call. Then I came up with an idea. I called C*nt #1.
Hello." "You're a C*nt!" (But I didn't hang up.)
"Are you still there?" he asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"Stop calling me," he screamed.
"Make me," I said.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"My name is Steve Hansen."
"Yeah? Where do you live?"
"C*nt, I live at 129 Alice Street, Ilford, a terraced house, with my gunmetal grey Land Rover parked out the front."
He said, "I'm coming over right now, Steve. And you had better start saying your prayers."
I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, C*nt," and hung up.
Then I called C*nt #2. "Hello?" he said.
"Hello, C*nt," I said.
He yelled, "If I ever find out who you are..."
"You'll what?" I said.
"I'll kick your arse," he exclaimed.
I answered, "Well, C*nt, here's your chance. I'm coming over right now."
Then I hung up and immediately called the police, saying that I lived at 129 Alice Street, Ilford , and that I was on my way over there to kill my gay lover. Then I called Channel 5 News about the hoodie war going down in Alice Street, Ilford.
I quickly got into my car and headed over to Alice Street. I got there just in time to watch two C*nts beating the crap out of each other in front of six police cars, an overhead police helicopter and a news crew.
NOW I feel much better.

Blown Up Glove
Have you ever found yourself waking up early in the morning with a smile and a hand that looks like a blown up surgeon's glove sliding down your face, complete with "good morning" filled with morning breath? And yet you simply feel like the luckiest girl on earth?
I feel vulnerable, not in a bad way but i have no idea if it'll ever grow into something really nasty. When you can't get enough of someone and are in constant need to see or be in the company of one particular person, you risk getting too sticky for comfort; but when two person are sort of willingly sinking into this "you asked for it" vulnerability, it's actually enjoyable. We both know one day we'll just not feel the need to see or feel each other constantly; but right now, we're both just sunken in deep and can't quite get out of it... Do we even want to?
Right now, i'm just enjoying the moments we spend in the car on the way to work, when i just refuse to wake up and make an enormous fuss when some stupid alarm just couldn't go off, torturing myself with cold cold showers early in the morning! By cold cold shower i don't quite mean the extinguishing kind, but more of the freezing cold unheated water. It's a torture but to be able to see that face with that gayish smile, it's all worth it. I'm loving every moment of this.
One day we're be driving our Grand Vitara and pointing our middle finger at some sore driver who can't drive properly. We'll do our one click signal turnings and irritate the shit out of the other road users. We'll just go to work together even if it means there's pure silence. But we're aware and we can feel, the silence is actually comfortable in the midst of the mutual synchronicity.
I feel vulnerable, not in a bad way but i have no idea if it'll ever grow into something really nasty.

New Seat - Bad Bad Bad
My seat has changed again.
Now I'm not facing the sun nor is my big boss facing my screen but it's far worse. The whole world is facing my screen now. I can't even check my emails in peace now. Having the largest screen in the office is not helping either. My privacy is all gone. They are unwilling to put me in my favourite window seat for stupid reasons and now taking my away from the other seat but even more silly reasons. I'm feeling miserable. The sun in my eye was bad enough, now i have a reflective UFO looking thing in my eye. It's not making things any better though. From where i was, at least the sun wasn't that strong. Now, it's right in my eye. How clever. Was just telling "DGJ" how interesting it is to tell them I'll be resigning one day and the reason being "I'm stuck in a bad seat".
Seriously, it's not because I'm fussing about it, now can you work while seated in the most uncomfortable place in the whole wide world? Besides, your loud colleague is just right in front of you. With his voice amplifying your face, I'm almost sure i can't hear myself over phonecalls nor think and type properly in my emails. If you've heard the corny remarks he makes, you really wouldn't wanna be laughing to them.

Office Expansion
Guess it's good that my office has just doubled in terms of size over the weekend. That will also mean that I'll be doing real recruitment jobs and more people will be hired doing the support work. Frankly, I'm not exactly enjoying this. My back is facing the door, extremely bad fengshui, not that it matters but that will mean that I'm actually looking at the nice view with the sun in my eyes and after a while, i keep seeing stars. It's really bad for my eyes and i should be like wearing sunnies or something while I'm working. I hate it. I feel miserable. My big boss happen to be sitting right behind me as well, and really, haven't got much to hide just superbly uncomfortable to have everyone looking at your screen. It feels invasive and i feel bare. My heart is constantly beating real hard with fear that someone might just pounce up on me of a sudden. Now i know what it means by bad fengshui. You're so emotionally affected, you can't really work. I genuinely hate it. I never hated something so much for a long time. I'm risking my damned life to be blogging this but i don't care because this will be the last time I'm doing this. If I'm doing to be pinned for taking 5 mins doing what i want, I'd be out of the door sooner than you think.

Music and Lyrics
I won't say that this movie is a must watch but unless you love Hugh Grant. Look, which girls don't actually take a second look at this guy, you've got to admit he looks fabbo for his age. At 40, all men should look like this. Then again, it'd be like a gay city. It's a relief to know he still like sex, with women of course. Behind closed doors may be that i would never know and have no intentions of finding out. The show is more of Hugh Grant than Drew Barrymore. Well at least to me, she's more like a support than the lead. Of course, i'm biased, he's cute and i can't resist a charming chiselled looking, blue eye bloke.
In modern times, we always look at songs as music plus lyrics but have we forgotten the Bach and Beethoven? Lyrics have played many crucial roles in the lives of you and me. Well at least to me, as you can see from the previous posts, i've never undermined the power of lyrics and the impact it creates. "Would you lie with me and just forget the world" talks about my inner desire yet came through when "Chubby Teddy" appeared and you wouldn't believe how much it digs into me and how strongly i feel for the meanings of the song on a different level. It's like a hidden yet blatant desire and now, fulfilled. I'm sorry i don't quite sound coherant right now and like many other times, i never try to be simply because i'm writing this blog like the way i feel at this instant and you should be able to imagine me telling you this as if i'm putting down a narration in black and white.
Music and lyrics are like Yin and Yang and it'll go hand in hand. Cheesy as it may sound, i'm sure there're lyrics to the most classical and instrumental pieces around. They all tell a story, whether we see it, feel it, relate to it, is a totally separate issue. They all have moods, emotions, up and downs, you just have to search within yourself for the lyrics that should go with the music of your heart.
I found my lyrics, have you found your music?

Getting A Heart Attack!
To have steamboat for dinner is always comforting and satisfying. To have it with fun people just topped it in the charts. Found a fellow bottomless pit, while the others stare aimlessly into space with their tummies bloated with an overload of food, both of us just smiled and kept eating ignoring the boredom on their faces.
The steamboat happened the night before and the whole of yesterday since steamboat till now, i had this pain in my chest and i had difficulty breathing. Doctor told me it could just be bronchitis but i still gotta watch out for tingling sensation on my fingertips or on my left hand cuz that might mean i'm on my way to a cardiac arrest and should be at the A&E immediately.
Every morning should just start like this morning. Arriving early for work, seeing the person you love, get your daily supply of hugs and kisses, followed by good breakfast. It's all good till you get just one irritating bugger turning up the volume of the radio, not that the music is bad, but the selfish nature of not sparing a thought for other people, really pissed me off. How i wish some things remained the way it began. It doesn't affect me as much that some people leave a part of my life but it's the entrance of unwelcomed people. I tried to accept some things or people with an open heart but they just continue to prick you every now and then till you get unbearably pissed, you just switch off and ignore. Now, i can't be bothered. I'm just feeling more and more miserable as time passes.
Why can't we just have drinks on Friday?

Yum Yum Lunch
We have a new colleague in our office today, our brand new admin assistant. Round of applause... For me! I'm so glad the load is slowly being removed from my puny shoulders. Talking about that, i need to do something about my stiff shoulders. I'm wondering would the culprit be my pillow, my sitting posture, my keyboard with super short wiring or my bra straps. Whatever it is, my shoulders are aching and i feel terrible. I'm going to get new pillows, new keyboard, new bras and make sure this situation improve. I can't possibly sit here for 10 hours bearing the unbelieveable ache, it's impossible and insane. Should you be aware of any other cause of aching neck, please tell me.
Lunch was alright today. As usual, with every new colleague joining us, we'll go out for lunch. Went to Fullerton today, wasn't my first visit there and knew exactly what i wanted before i even got there, i can't resist good beef. Will upload picture when i get home.
My plans to go Bangkok during the Good Friday weekend was almost changed when Monkey suggested, or rather, coerced us to go Hong Kong instead. Frankly, i'm tempted but the factors holding me back would be the cost and of course, i'll get to go to Hong Kong end of this year again with my company if my boss decide to fly us up again like they've been doing for the past 2 years (For me, last year). So we've decided to stick to our Bangkok plans for now.

My New Evo Looking Black iPod Nano
Sorry Jem, couldn't make it to hard rock last night. Promise it won't happen again. I feel so bad.
I slept really early last night, before i even got to brush my teeth, i simply dozed off. Meaning, i never intended to zzz off but was just too tired. It's been a hectic week but i'm enjoying every minute of it. Later in the morning, we're bringing "Purple Pony Princess" for breakfast and ice-cream yippee! Well, ice-cream for breakfast, doesn't it sound like somthing i always do? Haha, i've gotta admit, i'm a weirdo!
My new phone had been servicing me well for the past 24 hours and it's really fun. Well, i got myself into the "irritate myself to death" shit when i bought the idiotic, un-user friendly Samsung. I'm glad i'm back to my SonyEricsson.
BTW, i got my Nano! The 8gB black and fierce, Evo looking iPod. Haven't got a chance to use it yet but i thought it came as a great deal cuz they gave me a $64 voucher which i used it to get the earphones. Think it's way cool. Now, go out and get it!
Think i wanna go back and catch some zzzs before breakfast.

I'm Psychopathic!
| You Are 72% Abnormal |
 You are at high risk for being a psychopath. It is very likely that you have no soul. You are at high risk for having a borderline personality. It is very likely that you are a chaotic mess. You are at high risk for having a narcissistic personality. It is very likely that you are in love with your own reflection. You are at high risk for having a social phobia. It is very likely that you feel most comfortable in your mom's basement. You are at medium risk for obsessive compulsive disorder. It is somewhat likely that you are addicted to hand sanitizer. |
| How You Are In Love |
 You fall in love quickly and easily. And very often. You give completely and unconditionally in relationships. You need your space and privacy. You don't like to be smothered. You love your partner unconditionally and don't try to make them change. You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard. |
Care Bear Cousin: Playful Heart Monkey
Went for dinner with Dad, Mom, my favourite cousin and her two adorable daughters like night. Yes, the 2 of them were "the usual suspects". I hang out with them most of the time, well until "Chubby Teddy" took my weekends away from them. Well i didn't neglect them because of that, it's due to the discomfort of other factors now but i want you guys to know i still love you guys.
After dinner, we just shopped around and i came upon a huge, not gigantic but huge Monkey Care Bear. I've always loved Care Bear but never quite paid much attention to Care Bear cousins but the MONKEY!!! Well, FYI, i was born in the year of the Golden Monkey and i'm pretty much like a monkey. I can't keep still still and i can be relly mischeivous. I hate to say this but i'm as intelligent as well. Wahahaha!!! It's yellow and really caught my attention.
What really shocked me was Dad actually asked me if i wanted it. Dad had never quite gotten me toys and i really apreciate the gesture. Dad, being a fair Dad, will give my brother that amount in cash. I'm glad i got the toy because i've been looking for a nice toy which i can hug to sleep and this couldn't have came at a better time and for once i can say, "Dad got me this!". I love my Dad. Will post a picture on the toy once it's feasible.

You Have Munchausen Syndrome!
You know who you are and you're suffering from this. I wish you never get to read this because i never intended for you to read my blog. But somehow, i think you do read my blog and you found out using some underhand, unscrupulous method to get here. I'm telling you that you're suffering from Munchausen Syndrome! I read about this syndrome during law school but forgot it actually existed. It suddenly came to me, there is such a syndrome and you're a victim of it. Go see a shrink!
For those of you who's wondering what the fuck is Munchausen Syndrome, it's a type of fictitious mental disorder. People suffering from Munchausen will feign disease or illness to fish for sympathy. It may not be entirely false but there's always plenty of room for exaggeration.
I know you're just full of shit and feigning it. I know that so stop trying to bullshit me and stop your constant need for sympathy. You do not fucking deserve it and i do not fucking care. Go fucking far away from me!

Show Me The Money!
Once again, it's Mom's birthday. This year, we'll be having a scrumptious one with the usual suspects.
That's not the good news i've intended to deliver though. According to my boss, i'll be moving to do REAL work when the wall comes down end March but even better, i'm getting my own assistant. I'm thrilled!
Well, she'll technically be everyone's assistant but she's be taking over all my mundane jobs and i'll be moving on to do the big money making deals. I can so hear the ka-ching now. Then again, my credit card bill didn't quite succeed in surprising me this month. Well, it's not so much that i underspend because i've anticipated from the pre & post Chinese New Year shopping frenzy that i'll be on the gullotine real soon. Fortunately, i've got an unexpected little bonus and two big amounts from some merchants didn't quite meet off the cut off time set by our friend, Citibank, so it wasn't reflected on my current statement. However, "Chubby Teddy" gently reminded me that it's just like impending death, you'll just be like waiting for next month to die so i better not splurge my puny bonus on some state-of-the-art gadget. Maybe i'll just camp here for my iPhone.
Went to Jheraton last night and we ended up just bluetoothing each other. How exciting. If you think i've spelled Sheraton wrongly, that's not true. It's intentional. Well, we're all J so some monkey is going to name his kids, Jerk and Jitch oh and maybe Jee-bye. Wahaha i swear we were insane but i must say, it was fun. "Monkey" and "BR" can be so shitty but the fun that came with it, it's worth getting kicked on your shin!!!

The Pursuit Of Happyness
It's been such a typical Monday morning. Everything felt lazy and sedate until you click Send/Receive on your Outlook, only to get tons of emails coming in without a stopper. Subsequently, you'll go into this mad no break working frenzy then of a sudden, you'll realise, hey i need my breakfast or my morning tea. Getting those feet to walk to the pantry was torturous. Then i look back, how the weekend actually went, it sent a smile across my face. It wasn't exciting or exceptional, it was as sedate if not even more lethargic. All i wanted to do was to lie in bed and not get up. The temptation of McDonald's breakfast didn't quite succeed.
It can't get any better than waking up slowly to catch the next show and aptly titled, The Pursuit Of Happyness. It wasn't one of those superbly brilliant shows but I'll recommend it just because it's a touching story based on the real life of Chris Gardner. Will Smith did a great job together with his son Jaden. The most touching scene had to be the one they hid in the "cave", running away from the rest of the world seeking shelter in a toilet. It will trigger some soft spot if not your tears. Go watch it and tell me what you think.
I found my happyness by just staying in bed whole day long...

Bathroom Habits
| What Your Bathroom Habits Say About You |
 You are a very considerate person, but that doesn't mean you let people walk all over you. You spend a lot on clothes, and you tend to be a very dresser. However, it's hard for you to throw away trendy clothes when they go out of style. You are a very outgoing person. You are true to yourself, and you never hold back. In relationships, you tend to be very romantic and demanding. You'll treat your partner like gold, but you expect a lot in return. |
