A few updates

It's been quite awhile since the last time I blog. There's nothing interesting going on basically besides some small activities. I went for bowling 3 times in a row this week. Before company bowling event, company bowling event and after that another round today with friends. Now my left arm is aching seriously. Went to Lantern festival with Sheralyn and Hansen just now. I felt the entrance fees is super pricey! $15. o_0 ... That's like I can eat for 1 and half day with that amount of money lor.. Anyway, enjoyed taking photos here and there. It's been so long since I hang out with any friends or taking some photos over some activities. Now I have to wait for my friend to pass me the photos to upload. I like hello kitty boat over the lake. It looks nice with reflection from water. I don't know if I made a mistake again. I went to buy iphone at the launch. Now I am on the pricier plan and Singtel oversea call is a bit expensive. Hopefully my phone bill won't sky rocketed again. Anyway, the phone is not too laggy and some of the functions are really useful for me. At least the email synchronization is really very efficient.

Happy Birthday Singapore!

Happy birthday Singapore! This is my 1st yr celebrating Singapore's birthday as Singaporean. Well, it's been 8 yrs I am in Singapore. Whether I've slight complaints over government or anything about Singapore here and there, I'm still happy to celebrate Singapore's birthday. I love the food, the culture and the people here. Certainly this is the country where I grow up, where I've learnt my education for my profession and also it's been 8 yrs being working and hanging out together with my fellow Singaporeans. I certainly feel affinity towards the country. I shall not say so much in case some people might think I try to exaggerate things or try to be a hypocrite. Anyway, even though I am not born here, I am glad where we are as Singapore. As a country. Happy Birthday Singapore! Majula Singapura! =)

Love remains the same...

Dedicated to someone...

A thousand times I've seen you standing
Gravity like lunar landing
You make me wanna run till I find you
I shut the world away from here
I drift to you, you're all I hear
As everything we know fades to black

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending

I never thought that I
Had anymore to give
You're pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But,love remains the same

I find a place where we escape
Take you with me for the space
The city buzz sounds just like a fridge
I walk the streets through seven bars
I have to find just where you are
The faces seem to blur
They're all the same

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending

I never thought that I
Had anymore to give
You're pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But love remains the same

So much more to say
So much to be done
Don't you trick me out
We shall overcome
It's all left still to play

We - we could have had the sun
Could have been inside
Instead we're over here

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending
Too much time too long defending
You and I are done pretending

I never thought that I
Had anymore to give
You're pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
Everything will change

I, oh I,
I wish this could last forever
I, oh I,
as if this could last forever

Love remains the same
Love remains the same

Busy and tired

My school has started again. So busy and so tired. 4 consecutive school days for 3 weeks. I hope I don't fall sick. Wake up at 6:35 am and back home at 11 pm. Just the thought of it really makes me feel very tired. As for the school, not that I am being over confident or anything. But I guess I should somehow be able to get a degree w/t having to repeat the semester. Well, hope it really is the case. I can't effort to repeat anyway. Will have to try my very best to past every modules with the highest score I can get within my power

I'm started to wonder if life is all about kept struggling. Struggle for work. Struggle for school. Struggle for status. I am so busy everyday that I am not very use to stay at home doing nothing over the weekend. Kept occupied myself with one thing or another. And I really feel myself I am getting a bit aged. Ha ha ha.

I'm looking forward to the news of salary review this month. Hopefully I can get some pay raise. That's the only thing most probably makes me feel a little happy. I felt my social life is reaching almost to zero. Haiz..Miss some of my friends also. =(

Let's call the whole thing off

I find this particular lyrics so simple yet so touching. It's about the differences btwn people. Yes, we do have alot of differences among family members, among friends, among race, religion, fate and belief and the list goes on. But how could the two people can get along with each other through many differences we are facing in this life? What's the whole point of calling it off because of the differences we have? Sometimes it is not a matter of having differences in life. It is a matter of whether we are willing to forgo the differences we have each other. Our ideology, our thoughts... It is whether we care for each other enough to come into terms with one another. If we care for one another.. why would we let obstacles stand in our way? We can just call it off. For the sake of friendship. For the sake of love. This is what people can have in common among many differences.. love and friendship. =)

Let's Call The Whole Thing Off

Lyrics by Ira Gershwin; Music by George Gershwin


Things have come to a pretty pass
Our romance is growing flat,
For you like this and the other
While I go for this and that,
Goodness knows what the end will be
Oh I don't know where I'm at
It looks as if we two will never be one
Something must be done:
You say either and I say either,
You say neither and I say neither
Either, either Neither, neither
Let's call the whole thing off.
You like potato and I like potahto
You like tomato and I like tomahto
Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto.
Let's call the whole thing off
But oh, if we call the whole thing off, then we must part
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart
So if you like pyjamas and I like pyjahmas,
I'll wear pyjamas and give up pyajahmas
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the whole thing off
Let's call the whole thing off.
You say laughter and I say larfter
You say after and I say arfter
Laughter, larfter after arfter
Let's call the whole thing off,
You like vanilla and I like vanella
You saspiralla, and I saspirella
Vanilla vanella chocolate strawberry
Let's call the whole thing off
But oh if we call the whole thing of then we must part
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart
So if you go for oysters and I go for ersters
I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off off,
Let's call the whole thing off.
I say father, and you say pater,
I saw mother and you say mater
Pater, mater Uncle, auntie
Let's call the whole thing off.
I like bananas and you like banahnahs
I say Havana and I get Havahnah
Bananas, banahnahs Havana, Havahnah
Go your way, I'll go mine
So if I go for scallops and you go for lobsters,
So all right no contest we'll order lobster
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off off,
Let's call the whole thing off.

Unexpected result!

The weather is very cooling today. I woke up at 10:39 am. Never sleep till this late for years liao. Very nice weather to sleep I guess. I was a bit surprised about the exam results I got. 2 distinctions and 1 credit. This year I have lesser time to study. And during exam time I got alot of things going on. Quarrel with my friend which makes me in the worst mood to study, the myanmar cyclone and total lost of communication with my family make me worried sick and also in the middle of busy projects at work. And somehow I manage to get 2 distinction. I am feeling kinda lucky.
