Why must the plot of the drama gets more and more sad?
And why am I a sucker for it and I feel so sad each time the show ends.
Wah~~~Why can't they end happily????

*sniffs*


It was a really hot day,eh?
While hallucinating on my way back, I developed this 're-introducing me' list in my head.
Don't ask me why. Just read.

Well...then again..maybe I will do this next time cos' I'm feeling zzz again.

Trust me...I was really about to do it.

Happy Birthday.

Partings, hard to get use to.

By now all of us had been through so many partings in life that one shouldn't be bothered with it.
We just leave with good thoughts, wishes, memories and then new hope.

Somehow I just didn't like the bitter aftertaste. Or maybe sweet bitter aftertaste.

Today is Yinghui & Kenneth's last day with our company.
I am more closer to the latter cos' he stayed longer with us, we went home together and blah.
Alas the day when we will last took the same train home still came.
Was a little sad upon parting but oh well...Such is life. We are all okay. Really.

Still I asked God, hoping to trace perhaps a signal or so on the beautifully coloured skies on my way back, why do we meet, bonded and must part?
Like a rhetorical question asked by a silly teenager,I know.
Of cos' I ain't really searching for an answer. I was just calmed by the really colourful skies. Nice.

So we just get used to this.
Meetings.Bondings.Partings.

How do I really tell each of them that they are really special to me and I hope that it is that farmiliar smile that naturally form on our face that connects us next time we meet...if we meet.

*Sniffs*

Ah..getting a lil' too emotional. ;p

Happy

There are never enough entries in my blog that sound unhappy,dampening,sad and heavy.

One way to make me and most gals happy is shopping.
Retail therapy works 90% of the time.
The rest of it are mistakes.

Did a lil' shop with my fav. Fyn after work.
Happy happy.

Was to do a blog that makes sense after so long but I'm suddenly yearning for my bed better.

Think the ride is going upwards once more.
Whoa.

I don't wanna add on to make Jason feels worse.

I prayed my lil' prayer however I did not ask for the not-possible from God.
I believe we all have to be prepare for partings in life, be it in what form it may comes.
Time is the eventual healing essence and the memories stayed with us may or may not grow fainter but still fond.
If praying doesn't means miracles always, I do pray that God could lessen the pain.
For all that we know that, it is not that bad after all. We must always have an eye for many out there who suffer more,grieve more and definitely more helpless.

Maybe this train of thought doesn't help as I am not the direct party affected right now.

This led me recall one very innocent act of mine when I was in my primary 1 or 2 age.
My good guy friend- Faizal.

Maybe I will write this out one day.
One day when Jason feels better.

Don't think too much,ok?

If ok, I will go visit grand daddy with you this Friday?

Somethings change,somethings never...

I love my friends.
I lost some along the way, much to my regret.
But the times we spent and the memories we had are dear to me. Guess I really wouldn't wanna trade them for anything else even though sometimes it does hurt when it is no longer there.

Took a look at Von's friendster and I found this.
I hope you had your dinner already.

Taken at Cream Bistro(the small cafe at Pacific Plaza, next to That CD shop) during 2004, right after our last paper. I think it is April or May.
2 years ago...Yes...pretty much how I wore my hair and fat I am.
Vonny is this African migrated lady, over tanned and skinny!
Irene still as tai-tai looking.


Image hosting by Photobucket

I thought this wasn't too long ago until I realised that this is already April 06 we are living in.
Taken at a western vegetarian cafe(name forgotten) @ Shaw Tower. It was a pre-Xmas gathering.
Notice the difference?

Me,fatter.
Irene,more tai tai.
Vonny,prettier and more modelic.


Image hosting by Photobucket

This is very recent. Infact last Wednesday. At Holiday Inn.
Don't ask me about that pose. We were asked to act cute, the easiest act cute pose I can think of is that.

Me,uglier.
Irene,rich tai tai.
Vonny,model.

Finally this is the whole of us that night.
I tell you that guy know nothing about taking photos. I dislike photos that aren't face focus.


Looks like I gonna save up for a pretty,presentable outfit for Weiseing's wedding coming June.
Sooooo Fast!!!!
Glad I'm not the one as yet..Phew.

Hahaha.
When it's my turn, I wanna have the those gowns shown on TV.
Live it!

Still a sick c8t

I went to work today with comments of "You okay mah?" filled my day.
I admit for the first half of the day was bad.I couldn't really hear (even myself speaking). My ears were blocked.
And of cos my face was completely pale.

Mum asked how come my face is so yellowish. I got a shock myself.

Damn I can't really concentrate now cos' my (left) ear is block again!!!

Argh...

Happy 33rd (+1)month anniversary

I'm truely sorry that I didn't spend it with you and instead I spent it sleeping more.
Why do I only feel well at night?
Sigh..My back is still aching very much though.

Was intended to be a well spent day for both you and I.
Guess I ruined it.=(

Image hosting by Photobucket

While my temperature subsides,the giddy spell is still there and my back aches like there's a hundred or so knots in it.

Couldnt quite believed that I really black out in the toilet yesterday. Though it's only a few seconds but it's scary enough.

And now...I'm back to how sentence one describes.

Havent felt worse.

Saturday, April 22, 2006

Irony

How I always wish to fall sick when I'm well and now that I fell, I wish such days would leave me alone for good.

MC

Was about to do a good post with photos.
Sinuses attacked me at 3pm plus during work. Final result: Am I having fever now?
Photobucket was down. Couldnt upload the photos.

Am half wishing to be sick and not now.

Toss the blanket and let the night decides.

Hehz

Happy Birthday,Ming!

Exams huh? Don't worry, you'll do soooo fine!
Have a gr8 birthday.
Couldnt forget the big bouquet we got you last year (And I love that combi)
For such a great gal like you, I couldn't find a reason why people don't just love you. (Cos' we all do)

Unexplainable,so unbelievable

Image hosting by Photobucket

Don't ask me why I like this picture so much.

It's so unbelievable,
And I don't want to let it go,
Something so beautiful,
Flowing down like a waterfall.
I feel like you've always been,
Forever a part of me.
And it's so unbelievable to finally be in love,
Somewhere I'd never thought I'd be

The perfect sky's tall

Monday's fine.
I was still hoping I would be sick the night before.
Disappointed that I am not this morning.

April's full of birthdays, I wonder why?
Everyone loves to be an Arian?

I spent my day missing Jason.

World Cup is coming soooo soon.
Ain't a football fan but am interested in World Cup. The last quater match onwards,that is.

Got Mexico's band!!! (Pronounced Me-thi-co)
Green & White!Nice!

I think USA is the only band that spells SOCCER instead of Football.
Hahahah.

I wondered where's Japan? White & Baby Blue.
Wondered how many countries they have?

Can't wait for Friday.

So we still have Tuesday(=Monday), Wednesday(=Monday), Thursday(=Monday).

Once upon a time...

When I actually roamed inthe virtual world of connections called Internet Relay Chats(And I know there are some goons still there), I was actually known as Mia.
(if you dare to open your mouth to laugh, I make sure you swallow my shoes.)

I don't think there will be anyone remembering me as that with the exception (and still surprises me each year) of 'Yang guo'. Lol!!

Happy birthday, Kokpin!
I forgot how old you are..23,24,25?
I just remembered the fine day when you are being dumped in the pond. Ah..famous tradition of SW.

Though you never will read this.
It doesnt mattered.
My SMSes count.

On Good Friday

I went out with my blackcurrent head.

Rem' I said I won't watch..

Image hosting by Photobucket

Well...I lied.(After hearing how great a movie it was.)

Jason & I braved the BIG rain to Cathay Cineiplex.

Image hosting by Photobucket

Apparently the big rain was just another torture to the sick boy.
It made his face bigger.(with the compliment of my Cybershot T5- Gold!)

And also a lil' delirious.

I will explain this later at dinner.


Boy, were the seats comfy!
I think Shaw & Eng wah can go die now.
We had no complains about Golden Village cos' it is still the monopoly.
Like can you complain about Mcdonald even though Burger King's burgers just so good?

Speaking of movies, I absolutely can't wait for..

No good...clearer.

It had been sometime since a movie as good as LOTR comes along. Or at lest anticipatory.

Actually I didn't think...

But maybe for Wolverine, I might consider.
I like Jean Grey's hair though!

So we heard...

Superman is coming back.

Again....

Nah! I take Bruce and Peter anytime better.

Ever since Jason's been inthe army, he has been talking about cars non stop. It makes me no more interested than hearing about Football.

Shot 2.

And so about Football.

He couldn't make up his mind! Germany or Spain?!

Unlike me. This colour just makes me wanna say,"Welcome to Mcdonalds. Can I take your order?"

I bluffed.
Cos' I got Holland too. We can't find Japan. If Italy's colour is White & Green, I will bag them.

Bad shot.

One drawback about my T5 is that it is not very useful at night.

But I love it Gold and slim.

Ta.

Forgotten ties...

I couldn't get along very well with my brothers. Period.

Deep inside I know that I kinda resent them for being not useful and lazy. And worse is the one that nutured himself a mouth foulier than a rotting corpse and a temper that would make himself nothing more worth than a peck of dust.

Deep inside I know that I,myself ain't Ms Perfect. I am just not very nice either. I always thought at least I do my homework and I know that I really care and had always put my family in priority.

Deep inside I know that as this goes on, the strain becomes tighter.

But I know I am never gonna be nice and let them take things for granted.
Mum and Dad can continue to let them do whatever they want and discipline how they want. I know I don't understand (yet) but I bear no responsibility anyhow.

Deep inside I know that if this is goodbye, I won't sit back and sob.

-------------

Like many relationships in life, many tell the stories other how.

Now I came to understand that each parting story had a reason at least.
We sticked to our own stand, defended our own right and guarded high against others.
When things happened, they happened cos' we let them to.
We are both too hurt and tired to care about how you feel always. Isn't my feeling important too?

I am clear minded the day after. I know really I didn't do anything wrong.
I ain't the type that would take the strong approach to my friends or others who didnt know me better.
If I am really wrong, I apologise with no ill feelings.
But if I am not, I wondered what went wrong.
I am not seeking for apologies.
I am just seeking for a reason.

When everything happened, it only seems we are capable of taking what we had for granted? Note that I no longer wanna labelled things as a one man island.

Oh..how does it matter?How will it matter?

-------

No wonder we always hear that growing up is a very ...special progress?
No wonder we always hear that grown ups are no fun.
No wonder we always hear that the society is a sickening cold metal plate.
No wonder we always hear that politics doesnt take place between countries but in offices and even classrooms?
No wonder we always hear that so many bad things that destroyed dreams and hopes.

So they are not just horror stories that are used to boo you.

They are real.

*shrugs*

Survive it or not.

I just hope that ...you stay happy. I no longer care who you are now.

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain

Red Affinity

I didn't expressed it but I do like red,suprisingly.
And finally I can't hide it, I dyed my red.

Image hosting by Photobucket
(Please don't comment on how funny my face looks.)


And you know?

I LOVE it.

I had enough of seeing brown and blonde heads all over with occasional of badly done red and some abnormal colours(namely green,pink,blue.)
Of course there are lot of very nice coloured heads around, including black.

But I guess mine shall remained for the next 3 months at least.

Last 15 seconds

I didn't find it meaningful to quote whom I heard this from.
But I would like to ask.

If I only have the last 15 seconds of my life, what would you say to me?

I thought of the people who are or were even, important to me.
15 seconds is really not enough to cover what and how I really feel.
Yet it's an irony that we do not convey what/how we feel for the person deep inside when we have the life time. And that 15 seconds seem like a sick joke from the above.

Just 15 seconds...What would you tell me?

=)

A quick one

Nothing much to update except for the super big quarrel between me and the foul mouth lil' brat.
He's not that lil' anymore..anyway.
As form of getting back or in the name of teaching him a lesson, I deleted off his everything in this pc and banned him using till he learns his way.
Pretty harsh and I admit I felt very bad doing this. VERY BAD!
But well...I thought I gotta make him lose something so he will learn..somewhere?
I knew I am harsh and this is not the eventual way of teaching but I had a 'hard' character and hardly back off as well. Moreever this is brother that you are talking about.
I am not known for the nice soft sister.

Work.
Ups and Downs.

Others.
Cant wait for Thursday after 1.30pm.
My hair is gonna take on a new shade.
;)

You.
I miss you.=*

What say Monday?

I pissed my clients, I get pissed.
I pissed my candidates,I get pissed.
I pissed my brothers,I get pissed.

Stop pissing so I wont get pissed?

Well...Try don't piss me and (you) won't get pissed.

I always thought I had alot to blog since there are so many thoughts coming in and outta my brain as I passed each day.
But when it is time to put them in words, I am left with troubles,worries and perhaps fear for tomorrow.
Tomorrow as in what lies ahead (in work especiall), not literally.

I am constantly put to have done my best as far as work is concerned. Thus when lil' conflicts arise between colleagues,clients,candidates and me, I feel ill.
I kinda worry for the worst each time as in I would imagined the lousiet,hateful scenario only to sigh a relief and thank God that things aren't that bad.
Guess that would identify me as a non-optimist.=/

I have a good head,good shoulders,good ears.(And good looks! =p Blah!)
But there is always something missing.

Sometimes I know I think way too much that may classified me even as a worry wart.
Good thing that I am well concealed that few people exposed my fears within.
Cool & laidback = Mich @ work.

Ah...never mind.
Leave the worries to Monday and Monday passes fast.

Just pray a lil prayer and sometimes things will really be fine.

Sa la..This is a worried look.

>.<|I

I think I am having overdose of frightening true stories lately.
And a show of Mang Nak(second series of Nang Nak) doesnt helps.
To be factful, that show wasnt scary but I just dont feel too comfortable watching such ghostly flicks.
><

Scare scare.

Do you think red looks nice on my head?
Not those kinda auntie red but really fashionable red now?
I hate pink head dyers,especially those turn silverish white again and those multi colour weirders.

Now what am I talking about?

A few things I wanna do before 23.
(hell like 22 is just a couple months away)

Studio photos.
Not those blardy unknown ones that ask me to do stupid poses and dress me like I'm getting married the next day.
I will be so stunning that my Friendster view rate will shoot up to 500 and not just an average of 100 to 130 per month.

Go Phuket.
I had enough ghost stories of Thailand.
Dont ask me why Phuket. Do you have money to bring me to Australia?

Have a well paid job.
But of cos.

Own so many pairs of earrings and clothes and bags and many things that I dont even remember.
That's not a good thing but a girl thing.

Buy a big gift for Jason when he enters workforce.
I'm so nice.

I gotta be realistic and this is not exactly resolution.
So...

I will update you when I have more.

Tuesday, April 04, 2006

Finally..

I officially declared that I'm swell eye no more.
To show tell,I present you:

I give in!
I am just not those excellent writers who seem to know what 'Prerogative' means before they learned about the word 'Authority'.
Doesnt makes sense,I know but that's what my writing is all about.

As I read on,I just cant fanthom how some people can still write like like those compositions are selected in the yearly reading book of the school.
Note:That is not a remark of sacarsm.
During my years of studies, I truely enjoyed those selected few compositions(Note that I didn't say 'Essays') and then sighed with envy when they are were my classmates.
I would be elated if mine were graded well for content, knowing other components like grammer,struture,vocabulary might be a problem.

So I happened to blog-hop to this ex-classmate of mine whom will never find up that I'm actually reading hers once in a blue moon.
She was talking about reminiscent of the good old secondary school times,which I now don't find what's so reminiscing about it.
So happened that we ain't any close either, neither do I now recall who I am closer that time?
Given a damn chance,be sure I won't go back.
Somethings were badly screwed there and I guess I wont drop a tear even if it's gone.

Reminiscing is nothing but just another torment to self,sometimes.
I guess I would be more concern about how to live life better and dont screw what's ahead.

IF you really know me, you know I could be lesser or more than I appeared to be.

How many people out there is dislike of night time and how many love it?
How many people hide and how many seek?

Hide & Seek.
What are we searching of all the time?
And if words can help us, why some of us just cant use it well?

Oh Saturday....

Image hosting by Photobucket


Dunno how true that will be but I dont want anyone to doubt that.
OF cos'...that's my work and my words.
