blessing

it is a blessing to have a big rowdy extended family.

crack me up

as much as i may complain about working life, you wont catch me saying that i miss school. because i really dont ... if by school you mean projects, irresponsible groupmates, mugging, tests, exams, presentation. throws me back when people say they miss studying, because I certainly do not, at all ever want to touch any textbooks again.

but, i miss having my friends around me. and that in between the horror stories of school, there were pockets of fun. that we could play truant, have lunch/dinner/supper together, have beer, bitch, share youtube videos, crack jokes at each other. and there was laughter in my life everyday - loud unpretentious laughter with snorting in between, until we couldn't breathe talk, until our stomachs hurt until we cry.

and now we work to silence, work related questions, dry laughs if any. no jokes are cracked because there's nothing to make fun of and neither would the colleagues find it funny.

i miss such a simple thing known as laughter.

room for rent.

well i do suppose i got what i wished for, happy long weekend!

after a saturday of frolicking around - from interview to picnic to flea to chinatown to guitar hero, i spent the rest of the long weekend at home sniffling and coughing incessantly.

at least i managed to have my movie marathon. its been a long while since i did that so much so that i thought i walked into the wrong shop yesterday because my absolutely favouritest, cheapest ever rental store expanded and i didnt even know.

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

if things could go my way, i'd wake up to another weekend.

12.56 a.m, what?! its monday already!

the one about breakfast and starvation

this group of people named 'us' never fails to amuse.

j: i will be seeing del and man for breakfast on that day. woah too much love for the day man!

e: oh wow, i didnt know we have breakfast ppl in our group. besides gan ann i think, i thought she's the only one who wakes up early.

j: yea i didnt know we had breakfast ppl in our group either.
working life sure has changed us huh. any grasp for a tidbit of social life.

f: eh. i also eat bfast now loh!

g: eh, y u all have breafast never invite me?
jan, since u have car, shld come pick all of us up for breafast. hehe.
life is good today cos im on mc, but then have tonnes of work so doing some now...
since we r all so starved of love, y cant we just meet for breakfast tmr?

summary: we want love and a tidbit of social life so we want breakfast.

whoa. analytical skills.

see no evil.

this is one of 'em days where i dont feel like facing the world. i stepped out of my house wishing that singapore had the lifestyle / culture of donning mouth masks like taiwan & japan. it's sure one of those days where i want one on without people giving weird looks or inching away for fear that they might contract SARS.

oh gosh, the agony of human contact.

秘密

秘密-張震嶽

作詞：張震嶽 作曲：張震嶽

總在閉上雙眼之後 才能看見妳
這是一個心中秘密 偷偷在愛妳
妳卻不知道 有人在想妳

總在黎明來臨之前 我還是清醒
什麼時候我才可以進入妳的心
好想對妳說 我正在想妳

也許在妳的心中早就已經有人進去
或許妳不曾接受真正的愛真誠的情
遺忘吧過去的事 不要 再 懷疑
我彷彿可以聽見妳的心跳妳的聲音
不要只有在夢中才能看妳才能靠近
我可以慢慢的等 直到 妳 離去

huff puff.

saludos.

i guess that's about all i can get out of myself. im barely keeping my head above the water at work with all that issues that keep coming up. work is just work right. but why do i feel so emotionally drained.

恋空

i like the way the movie ended, how everything went back to square 1. that's how life is, at some point you think you are going to get something out of it but in the end you realize, you emerge none the wiser.

Narrator: [voiceover] Vicky returned home to have her grand wedding to Doug. To the house they finally decided to settle in. And to lead the life she envisioned for herself before that summer in Barcelona. Cristina continued searching... certain only, of what she didn't want.

now, besides wanting to go to spain, the idea of living there is tempting.
