29th February

There is a place I want to go but I don't know where.
There is someone I want to meet but I don't know who.


Please let me see you on 29 February.


"I'll be waiting for you on the evening of 29 February, not in the Blue Paradise Cafe but in the Rasa Sayang Hotel which too has fond memories for me. When I see you - I know you will come - my first words will be 'Will you love me as I love you?' and your reply will be 'Yes' - I know it already."



A random fact: I have this vein which run across my right shin which pops up whenever I run.


~~If I was really gone, would you have noticed it?~~

Toys R Us has always been, and will always be one of my happiest place to be. Singing along with the songs that I grew up with, man that sound very kiddish, but who cares. Everyone's supposed to find his favourite toy in the store. How I miss those times when I was a kid. When growing up wasn't that bad. Bleahs.

Of beers and chips

Nothing beats lazing around with beer and a bag of chips in hand, watching all those movies from yesteryears.


Nothing is constant in this world, so.

Don't wait till it is too late to let them know you love them.



It maybe only 3 words, but those 3 are ranked one of the hardest words that you can tell somebody.

Set your date and time of arrival. Power up to 88mph. Leaving in your trail, the 2 fiery tracks.

Of course I'm talking about Back to the Future. One of my favourite trilogy of all time.



And where is my Reset button when I needed it?

Without You

It is always times like these that I wished that you were there with me.

And so I did the most random stuff that one could have done. I plonked myself in McDonald's and read my book. It is quite sad that people growing up nowadays don't have the time to read anything other than their textbooks or course pack. That is reality, but I never believe that is the balanced life that we should be leading.

And also, like I've mentioned to some friends before, the qi4 zhi2 that a girl possess which she reads is totally different. Of course the material that she is reading do make a very important aspect of it, it has to be 'substantial' at least. Nothing against people reading manga or some gossip magazines as I do have such indulgences as well. Books Kinokuniya is an interesting place, and I only visit the Orchard branch for its amazing selection. Pageone is slowly creeping up my list though for their Chinese language books.

And that couple I saw last night, I sure hope they are ok. Though the girl just started crying out of nothing under the lamp post, at least I though it wasn't his fault. She appeared to be crying still when they rode away. I hope she's ok.

It is always times like these that I wished that you were there with me.

This sound is on the repeat at the moment. For me.

Mariah Carey - Without you





A fitting song I guess.



It is always times like these that I wished that you were there with me.

I am the donkey and would someone please dangle the carrot in front of me?


Venturing into unchartered territories alone is a scary thing. Especially when I know the outcome cannot be any good. But still I chose this path and I must bear the results. Every once in a while we ought to do something unconventional, for these are random memories that we will carry with us when we are old. Ok wrong logic here, but heck it.



Throwing all that I know out....

The year of the Rat

I bought this book recently. It is titled "Pick Me Up". A motivational book compiled and published in 24 hours. I have read half of the stories inside. Not bad. Quite a nice read. The main reason for buying it was because 60% of the net profit will be going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation for children with life threatening medical conditions.

Just perhaps doing my bit I guess. I guess I really felt for them at that time of the email.


Happy New Year people.

Hope this new lunar year will be a great one for you. For everyone.

Supper and more

Abstract:

"The First Mian Xian Supper.

And so she took me to have my first mian xian supper. And it is really nice, especially the soup. After that it was off to next door for 2^nd round of Indian supper. Ok so I ordered an egg and a plain prata, somehow along the way, the waiter got it wrong and gave me a PAPER THOSAI instead. I know, how randomly wrong right? Quite hilarious actually. Haha.

What took my by surprise was the conversation that follows. We actually managed to talk non-stop for about 4 hours, not realising till when it was almost 0500. Anything and everything under the sun was covered. And it is very amazing that we are actually so alike. Like OMFG. Haha. Saying that she is simple is a total understatement. The conversation kind of freaked me out in the sense that I have always believed that I was the only person of these characteristics to exist. At least in my social context, till she came along. It made me realised that I was not alone, there is at least 1 more person like me. A comforting sense? J

The topics that we covered cannot be summarised here, so it shall not be. It is no wonder she is one of my closer friends. It is really the few times that I can open up so easily to another person. Opening and sharing some of the many untold issues that I picked up along the way, but the correct person hasn’t appear for me to share, till now. Haha.

Call me selfish, but knowing now that she is like that too, at least I know there is an outlet for me to turn to should the need arise. For sharing with others your problem doesn’t burden them with your troubles if they are true friends. And you know now that I am also a good listener, so feel free anytime. :)

That short few hours we spent talking made me realised that in this pragmatic and superficial world of ours, there is at least someone else that I can turn to. Someone whom I don’t need to feel distant and foreign to. Someone whom I know will almost feel the same way as me. A friend. A very good friend. J

I am glad to have found someone like her. Like I’ve said, at least I know I am not the unique one around anymore. ”

The abstract above was taken from a post somewhere. Any relevance to any person living or dead is purely coincidental. :)

Sweets

All I ask for is sweet dreams every night.


For all the things that I am unable to experience or possess in life.



At least make the time when I am at rest, the best time of day.




That is all I ask.
