Went down rail mall last night...
walked around, things have changed significantly there... not like my army daze...
got myself two bottle of wine...
Also went down for pool at Bt timah... met my Ex director at the lobby...
chatted breifly...
With nothing much to do, I took a stroll home... it's been awhile since I'd walked home...
Nothing good or bad... just something I haven't been doing...

X-mas is the time for giving or forgiving?
X-mas is here...
It's time to forgive and "for gifts"...
Well, had been done much injustice by many this year... still I believe 08 will be better... and shall start them off on a clean sheet...
Went around shopping for gifts too, didn't "win" much... just got a simple gift for someone... I don't think the gift was much appreciated, but well I did my best wor...
Anyway there are more damages to come... sighzZz will be seeing red all over my bank book... but wat to heck... it's X-mas...
May all you wishes come true...
Happy Holiday Season~! Ho Ho Ho...

I dun think my heart can take this...
HmMmMm
I believe my heart is getting weaker... after the lousy two weeks... it's getting worst... last night... sigh...
Went home last night after a spin around with k, sat in front of the TV and start looking and the papers...
this news hit me lot, not knowing why then, it was about the SIM or SMU dragon boat rowers... the one which represented Singapore and met with an accident...
Knowing tons of people in Dragon boat... but looking at it as "students" nothing to caught my eye... but the news still got into me...
Only just, this morning, a sms telling me that a fren's bro was one of them...
suddenly my lousy mind started working... I should have noticed that...
Guess my brain isn't working as effectively as it used to be (Damn, my heart now my brain)...
anyway I believe it's Jeremy G... If my lousy brain still working good enough...
I'm lost of words... take care Norm...
Freak... my heart take these shit anymore...

想想我
谁说爱就应该要拥有
我选择为你默默守候
你和他会有什么结果
我的爱从不离你远走
很清楚爱不到的难过
也许真地会一无所有
爱一个人不需要理由
只要你幸福就以足够
但愿你幸福时候想想我
为你付出过的温柔
要知道这几年来是你掌控
我的情绪起起落落
就算难过 我还是要承受
但愿你寂寞时候想想我
曾为你付出那么多
要明白爱一个人不需要理由
更不用问我为什么
我不放手
我选择为你默默守候
你和他会有什么结果
我的爱从不离你远走
很清楚爱不到的难过
也许真地会一无所有
爱一个人不需要理由
只要你幸福就以足够
但愿你幸福时候想想我
为你付出过的温柔
要知道这几年来是你掌控
我的情绪起起落落
就算难过 我还是要承受
但愿你寂寞时候想想我
曾为你付出那么多
要明白爱一个人不需要理由
更不用问我为什么
我不放手
JF X-mas Party
Was down at Loof, a place I really wanted to go with that someone special (if that someone even remembers), to attend this X-mas party organised by JF...
"Who let the dogs out... Roof... Roof x3"
Bit about this Loof before I go on...
Loof was and is known for it's design and concepts, of cuz the value for smokers & urban-ians love for sweet cityscape...
Capitalising on these factors, the famous Archi firm (WH) made an extension to the roof top and created a rustic feel within this contemporary locality...
Effect and impact is award winning... as most WH projects...
The detailing is impressive...
Met with tons of people there... mostly expats and a few locals...
Made a few friends and learnt a few lessons from each...
Wanted to grab a cab home, but the streets were really packed and well decorated (I must comment...
So I ended up on the train back home...
On my much await ride home...
I'd people watched... basically couple watched...
Realised I'd missed the time we took public transport together...
the way I had to travel all the way back alone, but it was worth every penny and min...
Well, even I'd asked, this would not happened again... things just aren't the same...
Don't know why and don't wanna know why...

Kyochi is such a dear.. and he's super
good in his studies.. works really hard
in nus wanting to provide a better life
for his gf.. his gf must be such a lucky

an amiable guy who tolerates all his

Kyo is also a 'zui ying xin ruan'
person.. he may appear unconcerned and
bo chap but he really cares deep in his
heart.. he's actually a very warm person
inside.. :P

Hello Mingzong!!I know you since JC,and

humor,like to tell jokes very much.But
frankly speaking,I dn't think your
jokes are funny.I'm just forcing myself

joke.Haiz...You very sad liao

Cherry or Chevy???
Couldn't really remember when was this, but really gotta blog this before brain stop working...
Was a lousy night, as per norm, and managed to get TC out for some drinks...
He brought me this place called Cherry Cherry... I'm like I tot Cherry is in Chinatown, the Thai Disco pub... anyway I just followed...
Ended up the logo was chevy... anyway who cares...
The crowd was like aunties and uncles... and I tot I was getting old... I guess they came from the old Canto LOL...
Some more they can line dance pretty impressively...
Well, the band was and is great... the trio is powerful singer each and excellent with their machine...
I was great music and relaxing... nice place to chill...
We met an Ang Mo there too, Pte Ryan and wanted me to sell his 3 bedroom penthouse for him...
Brokage isn't really what I wanted, but TC being a sales guru, I agreed to look into it... gave him my name card... hope that he wouldn't call me~!
It was the experience of the life time...
really must remember the date... should be 17th Nov 2007

TGIF
Ever since my social life stop giving me any utility, my work life started to creep over and tilt my whole work-life balance thingy...
From then, TGIF doesn't really matter to me anymore...
BUT
I'm really glad "Thank God Its Friday"
I have been having lousy weeks... I'm determined to change my luck this weekend to break the negative Qi...
I'll still work on Saturday but the whole of Sunday I wanna go some place or something different...
Will start planning this evening...
To all frens out there... don't think this is "old fashion"...
But i truly agree and amazed with the ancient knowledge of Yi Jing and within it water wind wind...
Still I'm an analyst and only believe in science about everything...
In this case... breaking away from the negative chi... is break away all the intangible burdens of emotions to regenerate and clam your soul...
sounds familiar? it's on all the advertisement for Spa... or getaway etc...
Taking a break for the trip to come...
Truly Spa / Truly Science
From then, TGIF doesn't really matter to me anymore...

Still I'm an analyst and only believe in science about everything...
In this case... breaking away from the negative chi... is break away all the intangible burdens of emotions to regenerate and clam your soul...
sounds familiar? it's on all the advertisement for Spa... or getaway etc...
Taking a break for the trip to come...

Rainy Season for all...
Woke up feeling really cold and tired... The night before wasn't any better for me...
Really don't feel like going to work, but I did...
Got caught in the rain while heading to the train station... board the train and realised that I'd forgotten my pass... went back to my K, and got caught in the rain yet again...
Didn't really mind, it's been awhile since I'd enjoy the comfort of the pouring soul...
Guess I wasn't as strong as I used to be...
After a long day and night in office, I'm sick now...
Shivering cold and having chest pain...
It wouldn't be long...

Studying with Michelle
Spent the weekend helping Michelle with her coming exams...
It wasn't easy... she had been skipping lessons and it had been awhile since she hits the books... But she was making efforts to understand and her work... (Finding time to slack now and then of cuz)
She didn't force me to, in fact, I enjoyed tutoring her...
That's something I really like about her, her positive and passionate attitude in life... especially dealing with too many people who gave in to life or shun away from responsibilities...
The main point of this blog is how memories came back to me...
I remembered how she was there during my last semester in NUS and wasted her time mugging with me... So sweet and caring towards moi... I fell in love then (not sure about her)...
It is a bitter sweet memory... and now that she's trying hard to study... I really want to do the same for her...
Go, Go, Jia You...

Tyranny of hope
People watching has always been fun to me, and a learning experience to view the world from a different perspective...
It was long ago, I had started working and I went for kopi near NUS...
(Alone as per norm...)
Saw my juniors taking a break from their mugging... it was around the exam period...
Chatting with them stirred up m emotions quite a bit... the fun I had while I was schooling...
I'm just wasn't sure which part of it is the X-factor?
I love the late night mugging - I still do that at work ( :< )
I love the passionate profs - I do get a few good mentors around
I love the sharing learning - I do learn at work
I love the pretty girls around- There are quite a handful out there
... So what is it... It was the HOPE of good future;
A good result,
A good job,
A good income,
A good career,
A good relationship,
A good house...
Basically a good life ahead...
Taking a step back, you'll see the harsh reality of life has impounded one's hope to the extent that the "Tyranny of hope" sets in...
For those who aren't aware of this theory, it is actually the torture a person gets when pursuing a glimpse of hope...
More than often... it becomes a chase for nothing in return...

The Art of Saying I'm Sorry...
As a typical Asian, or Singaporean, being humble and apologetic is a norm...
But over the years.. I'd learnt not to be too "sorry" for things you did... especially when it comes to work... People are fast to place blames and once you blurb out the "s" word, you are caught in catch22...
I once had an experience that taught me the Art of saying sorry...
It was a lousy evening, and it had been awhile since I'd contacted any of my old pals from study or work... So I text a mass sms to send my regards to all for them... (just being nice, like I'm always)... It was a massive sent that couldn't even remember the parties involved...
Then this gal fren of mine, whom I don't even know how she looked, kept text-ing me asking me things like how I am... what am I doing now... Am I sleeping or sleeping soon... etc...
All turn weird for me, and as always I didn't reply to entertain such lame sms-es... then she called...
I was thinking to myself... Oh my god... going get freak by her for not replying...
To my surprise, she called to scold me for making his bf and her fight by sms-ing her... and demanded me to "say sorry" to her bf...
Being lost, shock and disorientated, I did what I was told...
Putting down the phone, I'd realised how dumb I was...
The number was given by her personally, NOT to sms or call her???
I'm sorry that she had a screwed up relationship... BUT I'm nowhere near sorry for sending that nice gesture sms...
Madness, so I del her number the very next moment...
The lesson I'd learnt here is not to be so ready to say sorry...
In fact, over the years, I'd developed an Art of Saying Sorry...
(Very effective at work place)
Never say "Sorry" when you don't mean it or you can't do anything about it...
(Go sit on it... you'll get it.)

SPGs...
People watching has always been fun to me, and a learning experience to view the world from a different perspective...
Got to know of this guy... not to be conspicuous, let's call him Eddie...
Eddie is a nice guy, working in mon industry as well, a few years senior than moi and drawing a few hundreds more, monthly...
A fortunate boy with a family that gives him all, a study in oversea university and even handing out money in time of need...
He currently has no asset but simple interest savings towards eight grand...
Had always question where did all the income went...
He would just proclaimed his lavish lifestyle... the wine and dine etc...
Still, I never really believed him... I had my period of the lavish lifestyle...
(did it with the intention to make myself happy but...)
I patronised the finest dining, frequent pubs and drank only liquor, got myself a private gym membership and even a exclusive club membership to some place in CBD...
To top it off, I still managed to service my car loan and clear my home bills...
Putting the pieces together, something is missing...
Recently, I had found out the missing puzzle, he was and is a repeated hotel stayer...
If you check his card bills, you'll see he went from cheap motels to expensive hotels, once a week or every fortnightly???
It's not something bad, like repeated gambler, that one may turn into a problematic gambler.
To be exact, my sister and brother do it all the time, sister with her family and my brother with his wife... Not as often but all the time...
The food for thought here is;
Who goes to the hotel with him???
Or should I put it clearly...
How does he get girls to stay at the hotel with him???
My answer till now is... SPGs

Lousy Headache....
Had to worst headache of my life yesterday at work...
Was down with fever right from the start... but went to work as always...
I'm pretty worn out by work I guess...
Didn't had plans for the night... just another lonely night... so decided to meet up with my ex workmates to get my certs...
When I'd reached the headache was getting worst... chat awhile and left... but the chat was great...
We were talking about all the different jobs we are holding now and how the one that stayed is earning big bucks...
Well, of coz I'm earning lesser than what I would if I had stayed...
but as I explained my job nature to them, I realised how much I'd learnt within this short period...
In fact, I'd convinced, at the end of the day, that I'd made the right decision to reject the other offers...
:)

Question by a friend...
Had been asked a question by a friend... find it really interesting and would like to share with all...
I'd always enjoy chatting with ppl, understand other and understand myself...
He was pretty upset that night, and wanted to get things off his chest and there I was...
I understand that he was upset about how his past gfs treated him...
He explained how his ex-s would always be buying the next bf expensive gifts... in fact when he was saving every penny to spend on his gf, they were spending all their $$ on the other guys...
LOSER~!
Of cuz I didn't say that, well I'm also every much guilty as charged LOL :)
I told him to clam down and see the way I see it...
Perceived Value & True Value
The meaning of these two terms are subjective to many...
If looked at the true value of the gifts, without saying, he is much inferior...
but the the value of gifts do not lies in the true value but its perceived value (unlike valuation or many other cases)
If they were to buy him those expensive stuffs would you be happier???
Simple answer is no...
So the gifts they gave him had more heart and soul... :)
Sound sweet?
I'd stop there with him... but let me continue here...
If you measure the anger involved when his ex-s spend on other guys' gifts... and add to the equation...
Simple answer is yes...
So the gifts they gave him were meaningless...
But this is the cruelty of life...
