Today two things happened to me that were quite unexpected. It was both surprising and funny. Sometimes its just a wonder.
You never know what happens next. Or when you would probably just fade away from the earth. We are all so involved in whatever we are involved in, it doesn't make sense. Or at the very least, thats what I find myself thinking sometimes.
I loved the weather today, it reminded me alot of a time and a place. You can never go back in the timeline but you can always reminisce.
OH I am laughing now. M just put on an extra layer of jacket on her, kept complaining that her feet is cold, got up to put on an extra layer of pants and hid under the thick blanket. And I am looking at her .... wondering why. Is it really that cold?
I want to continue on and talk about where I would be going at the end of the year. But I probably should just stop here.
Good night.
  There was so much to do in the office. I could almost literally swim in the paperwork. But I just love the vibe when I stepped into the office recently. Busy could kill as well heal I guess. I do love my job most of the time. :) And so the day continued with much calls, coordination, figures and such. Harry greeted me in his blue surgical shirt. He had been wearing this particular piece once in a blue moon and yet every single time he does that it just brings a smile to my face. We would go ' Who are you operating on today?'
Maybe it was because I was so busy I just had to do some crap stuff. I couldn't ignore it any longer so at around 4, I emailed a few colleagues this picture above with the title... Doesn't Harry look like he just came out of this set?
AY sent another picture right about 5pm which made all us burst out laughing. We took a picture of Harry right against the cupboard and made him look to his right....... AY did alittle photoshop put a tag on him.

Its freezing in the office. Aircon has gone bonkers again. I would have to start purchasing winter clothes that can double up as clothes I will bring on my trip. Grrrrrr.....
I felt wind caress my ponytail as I treaded the track. I started stretching first, that same routine under the bright moonlight. Slowly I started running, just kept running. I hear the bounce of my Nike shoes against the ground, the rhythm of my breath, the wind against my cheek. I gazed around to see many fishermen by the pond, I see couples jogging..No I wasn't alone.
Then the air came to a standstill with almost no breeze. I paced the first round effortlessly however when it came to the second, I had to push myself mentally.
Keep going don't stop, keep going don't stop. Don't look back.
I reached the end, stretched again and started walking home. Then I started smiling again. I feel so different now, I feel alive.
Follow Through - Gavin DeGraw
Oh, this is the start of something good
Don't you agree?
I haven't felt like this in so many moons
You know what I mean?
And we can build through this destruction
As we are standing on our feet
So since you want to be with me
You'll have to follow through
With every word you say
And I, all I really want is you
For you to stick around
I'll see you everyday
But you have to follow through
You have to follow through
These reeling emotions they just keep me alive
They keep me in tune
Oh, look what Im holding here in my fire
This is for you
Am I too obvious to preach it
You're so hypnotic on my heart
So since you want to be with me
You'll have to follow through
With every word you say
And I, all I really want is you
For you to stick around
I'll see you everyday
But you have to follow through
You have to follow through
The words you say to me are unlike anything
That's ever been said
And what you do to me is unlike anything
That's ever been
Am I too obvious to preach it
You're so hypnotic on my heart
So since you want to be with me
You'll have to follow through
With every word you say
And I, all I really want is you
For you to stick around
I'll see you everyday
So since you want to be with me
You'll have to follow through
With every word you say
And I, all I really want is you
For you to stick around
I'll see you everyday
But you have to follow through
You have to follow through
You're gonna have to follow
Oh, this is the start of something good
Don't you agree?

 Burning desire...... After the Bali experience I have decided that mourning over my last camera is done. And since I am such a shutterbug its almost painful not to take any pictures for months. The next lust is the T700.
What a weekend. It started on thursday where we met up with a couple of friends that made me think about Bali again. Wonderful dinner and company, we left for home at 11pm. Then on Friday, I went to Raffles place after work and sat right in front of OUB building waiting for a friend and I could hear the roar of the engines. It made my hair stand and made me regret not being there. So I went back home to watch the practice session.
Then came Saturday and Sunny Sunday. Its been awhile since I did anything like that. Hanging around PS with nothing to do just relaxing and chilling while talking to H, A, E... while waiting for my friends J and S to arrive. It was S birthday and we had a mini celebration sorta thing. Then a trip to Ikea on Sunday where I thought against buying a lamp when I saw the queue snaking around the corner. I found a corner when I could just dump the lamp and left for home.
How often do you actually sit in front of the televison and watch it together with your whole family? Not often for me. So I made a date with my dad so I got legal license to hog the TV. Then my dad made a date with my mum and brother, then esther made a date with me. So there we were....pulling extra chairs, all rearing for the F1 Night Race in Singapore. Unforgetable. My sister was over at J house watching too...
Oh I forgot to mention my grandma is improving alot. We decided to get her a maid to assist her in almost everything. Its just weird and takes alot getting used to. Especially when her name is Susana. *faint* We decided to call her Anna. 
It just sank in. No denying the truth. Its just weird. Its not affecting me. Just something to think about, to realise.
We are all getting older by the second. Every decision we make will affect our future. Simple stuff as the food we eat, the people we spend time with, the things we do， anything.
Its a good thing to realise sometimes we just merely forget.

Pure frustration. I can't eat my meals properly. I can't clean my teeth properly. It feels so weird when I have my food. I can't enjoy it in peace. Plus it has been causing me other problems.
Sometimes I wonder...why the hell did I have to go through the operation. I hope that when the stitches come off, it has healed properly and I can do what I f*cking want.
Funny how I used to think that I will never go through operations through my life. In this year alone, I have gone through one, and in twelve hours, I will be in another. Minor or not, I freak out at blood or such stuff...so its really a daunting task to force myself to go through this. Ok, I will benefit from it but the fear doesn't go away.
Sometimes you still get scared even though you know its good for you. The fear doesn't just disappear. Funny how I don't feel the same way about S. Yeah, if only I can fear S as much as I fear the good stuff.
Anyways, to me and my op. Good night.
Another thing, I hope I settled as much as I could in the office, or I really don't think I will really have a good rest.

a new wave has finally hit Singapore. It isn't difficult to guess. I am blogging from a new iphone that's right , no typo error. An iPhone not my iPhone. Which leads to this.... When am I getting mine?
I didnt know that they privatised the National Dental Centre. Its been 8 years since my last visit there and alot has changed. My teeth I mean. I would have to get rid of my wisdom tooth has they have been bugging me on and off. Damn. More expenses. I want to go to a private clinic.... But I think its better to go there. Especially when you want to have an operation where you go into sleep. Scary but I have delayed long enough.
I am not sure how many of us actually understand the meaning of Book Heaven.
Its this feeling I get everytime I step into places like Borders, Kinokuniya and Page One. You know the feeling of the blood coursing through my veins, sensations are heightened and my heart would start racing. My eyes would span the whole area in minutes and already there will be books that I would desire to buy. Well, my budget always never fails to stop me from buying more than I want to.
There is this tremedous urge to step into Borders lately. I am not sure if its the memories linked to the place, or is it the various books beckoning to me to just flip them open. Either way, its an itch I need to satisfy. My bookshelf back home is temporary expanding. That is because my friends A and W are so nice as to lend a book or two to me, and right now even though I have about 5 books on hand that I want to finish and I still pine to step into Borders. What is with this itch?

A brought H and I to this place during lunch on friday. It was interesting cos its the first time we have been there after working at SR for 2 years. He made us swear to secrecy in his Yellow Mango. It was a ten minute drive there and we were starving when we reached. H kept going on and on about how the food had better be good as A have described in his Singlish accent. Its funny to hear Harry banter in his Singlish accent and A in his Hongkong accent ... it landed me laughing in stitches.
Okay, the food was good and cheap, and we were satisfied. I don't know about you. But it was my first time in years I could actually have a conversation with friends who actually reads the books that I would read. Theres this book that I am dying to get my hands on - Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. Both A and H kept raving about it through lunch. My search of that book landed in disappointment when I found out that its sold out.
Anyway, its about time I started to do the stuff that I have been planning. Be it running, dinner with friends, a visit to the dentist, a visit to the parlour. Oh and the list goes on.
AB and I really slacked the weekend watching dvd after dvd. There was a point in my life where I actually thought that tv is a time waster. Why do I feel different now? Is it another transition?

A person unknown to normal human beings. He purchases cigar jwellery at 19000 dollars to buy a ring decorated with rubies and diamonds, slip it onto his cigars. He smokes to show the world that he has money to burn literally. Such people exist?
I dont feel like moving my butt today. Popped a couple of painkillers and waiting for the effect to kick in. Only John Mayer can cheer me up right now. A long day ahead but its a FRIDAY. Woot!

Each of an ostrich's eyes is bigger than its brain. I mention this odd, yet interesting, fact, because I strongly suspect that I have ostrich tendencies. Especially when it comes to sticking my head in the sand...
