Welcome 2011

Yo friends, 


A blink and its the last day of 2010. I'm so very happy and heartening to see my friends writing and planning for the coming year in their facebook or blog entries.


Before I begin let me just write down some adventures I had just now, the last day of the year.

I'm in the mood to dress up and do some reflection and planning in a cafe or maybe some wine some finger food. But it had to rain when I arrived location and got myself drenched in the process... so much for being chic and class...hahaha. Worse thing was that I got to know the restaurant I wanna go has been taken over and it will only open at 4pm (its 3.30 when t'm there)

Still not too bad, since I'm already half wet, might as well go over to Clarke Quay and see what I can have. Now in a Spanish restaurant eating tapas and having some wine. Not yet in the mood to do what I am supposed to do. Maybe I will later once I change my seat to along the river.... haha. k...back to my food first.... :p

Cont'd

Now at TCC with a cuppa. Hopefully can start what I wanted to do initially...haha.

A bit tipsy, but the feeling is wonderful...

Above taken from the notes of my FB. :p

Yo all, its Christmas again for year 2010. Its gonna be a brand new year soon!
一年的回顾，明年的计划。。是时候了。
愿朋友们圣诞节快乐～ Merry Christmas 2010!!

回忆

每每听到某些往日的歌曲，思绪也不由自主的回到过去。是件好事吗？我不能回答。我太怀旧了。每当我听到哪一首往日的歌，我就会想到曾经那段感情。

我觉得我不该有太多的回忆，它会让我留恋从前......那段回不去的光阴。

My first Silver Eagle

Got my first 3 tubes of silver eagles. Hmm what Peter said is true, when you start, you tend to keep collecting more and more... hahaha.

Looking forward to more silver collection :)

Trauma Paramedic Conversion Course

Just came back from the conversion course. So that means after this course we will be deployed alongside with the rescuers to the ruins to stabilize trapped victims.


New tab to show the difference...but I hate the color....

Birthday 2010

Went to JB for a short getaway this year on my birthday. Blur Darling missed the opportunity to proposed to me AGAIN... *roll eyes*

Only managed to get these 3 small cakes plus a candle.... :(

Happy 33rd Birthday!

Inception (2010)

 

Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible-inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime. But no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move. An enemy that only Cobb could have seen coming.

Cool show. Dreams within dreams. 2 messages for me....

1. A thought is like a seed planted into your brain. It will grow and feed like virus... 

Cobb: [from trailer] What's the most resilient parasite? An Idea. A single idea from the human mind can build cities. An idea can transform the world and rewrite all the rules.

Remember The Secret

2. Humans tend to stay in the planes that coincide most with their dreams and wishes. That is why we have so many disillusioned patients  in mental hospitals that dun wanna come out of their trace and back to the reality. I find the part whereby the people sleep to be "awake" into their reality most disturbing. But who are we to judge? Anyone can stay at the place they are happiest in..... we have the choice and only we can make that choice.


I like intriguing stories...bring it on!

Politics and such

Haiz, it is so demoralizing and sad whenever I head anything abt the MIW in recent years. How strong those grievances we true blue Singaporeans are throwing up. I used to support the MIW also when I was younger. I am proud to be a Singaporean and that my government is corruption free and far-sighted enough to bring us to a higher plane.

However, as reality sinks in (or maybe I am older and wiser), I started to see things differently. There is no denial that MIW had brought us to great heights in such a short time but you start to see differences in behaviors as our leaders changes.

Like I always maintained, humans are greedy by nature. You give them a penny, they will want a pound. Our leaders have totally forgotten their mission and responsibilities and is concerned only about how to make their pockets fatter. Yes, we are being run like a corporation. "Better, faster, cheaper" so can our million dollars ministers walk the talk? Can they make themselves better, faster and cheaper? No.. it is different for them, they deserved their million dollar salaries. I guess we all have to face the hard facts that we are just cows working for their benefit.

I am so sad and disappointed in life....  
Fuck the hell.... why do we even exist?

惜福

一篇让人深思的网络文章, 和大家分享。
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

深夜，寺里一人一佛，佛坐人站。

人：圣明的佛，我是一个已婚之人，我现在狂热地爱上了另

一个 女人，我真的不知道该怎幺办。

佛：你能确写你现在爱上的这个女人就是你生命里唯一的最后一 个女人吗？

人：是的。

佛：你离婚，然后娶她。

人：可是我现在的爱人温柔，善良，贤惠，我这样做是否有一点 残忍，有一点不道德。

佛：在婚姻中没有爱才是残忍和不道德的，你现在爱上了别人已 不爱她了，你这样做是正确的。

人：可是我爱人很爱我，真的很爱我。

佛：那她就是幸福的。

人：我要与她离婚后另娶她人，她应该是很痛苦的又怎幺会是幸 福的呢？

佛：在婚姻里她还拥有她对你的爱，而你在婚姻中已失去对她 的爱， 因为你爱上了别人，正谓拥有的就是幸福的，失去的才是痛苦 的，所以痛苦的人是你。

人：可是我要和她离婚后另娶她人，应该是她失去了我，她应该 才是痛苦的。

佛：你错了，你只是她婚姻中真爱的一个具体，当你这个具体 不存在的时候，她的真爱会延续到另一个具体，因为她在婚 姻中的真爱从没有失去过。所以她才是幸福的而你才是痛苦的。

人：她说过今生只爱我一个，她不会爱上别人的。

佛：这样的话你也说过吗？

人：我。我。。我。。。

佛：你现在看你面前香炉里的三根蜡烛，那根最亮。

人：我真的不知道，好象都是一样的亮。

佛：这三根蜡烛就好比是三个女人，其中一根就是你现在所爱 的那个女人，芸芸众生，女人何止千百万万，你连这三根蜡 烛那根最亮都不知道，都不能把你现在爱的人找出来，你为 什么又能确定你现在爱的这个女人就是你生命里唯一的最后一个 女人呢？

人：我。我。。我。。。

佛：你现在拿一根蜡烛放在你的眼前，用心看看那根最亮

人：当然是眼前的这根最亮。

佛：你现在把它放回原处，再看看那根最亮

人：我真的还是看不出那根最亮。

佛：其实你刚拿的那根蜡烛就是好比是你现在爱的那个最后的 女人，所谓爱由心生，当你感觉你爱她时，你用心去看就觉 的它最亮，当你把它放回原处，你却找不到最亮的一点感觉， 你这种所谓的最后的唯一的爱只是镜花水月，到头来终究是一场 空。

人：哦，我懂了，你并不是要我与我的爱人离婚，你是在点化 我，

佛：看破不说破，你去吧

人：我现在真的知道我爱的是谁了，她就是我现在的爱人。

佛：阿弥陀佛，阿弥陀佛

你我曾经深爱过的某人，无非也就是芸芸众生中的一个，只是 爱由心生，自以为他/她会是今生最爱，当你感觉你爱她， 你用心去爱就觉的他/她最珍贵，当万物归原，生命仍然继续， 他/她无非也就是我们生命中的一个过客。

我们根本无法确定哪一个才是今生最爱，如果不懂得去珍惜， 你身边这个爱你的/你爱的人，在某一天，也会成为你身边的过 客。

找一个你爱的人不容易，找一个爱你的人也不容易。如果无法 确定哪一个才是你最爱的人，何不在自己成为别人的爱人的 时候珍惜这份感情？爱由心生，你告诉自己是爱他/她的，自然 就可以爱上他/她。

如果你爱的人不爱你，也请记得：爱由心生。是你太过于把目 光集中在他/她身上了，试着放开视线焦点，你会发现光亮的蜡 烛到处都有。

爱与不爱，无非也就是在一念之间。

过去的事情过去的爱情，就让它过去吧，那只是我们生命的一 部分，只是茫茫大海中的一滴水珠，只是漫漫苍弩中的一粒微 尘。没有那些过去，也不会造就现在的你我。

珍惜当前，永远胜于三心二意

Ready, Get Set, Go!

Yoz, have been felling quite restless these few days. Seems like nothing is moving. Days are just pasting by. :(

I am already 33 this year, time to get my butt up and do something in my life! Life is short, must live each day fully ^^

Fast fast realise all my dreams... I still have 10 years to reach financial freedom.
Add oil my ger, gotta bite the bullet and hang on... we are taking the fast train.

Ready, Get Set, Go!

Revamped

Changed  the skin for my blog. Haven been doing this since I last used...diaryland. :p
Anyway the point is I have been shifting house for my blog from diaryland -> ebloggy -> blogspot.
And from my archives, seems like the post is becoming lesser and lesser as time goes by.
Hmm... I started blog writing in 2003 bah. Wah, 7 years already!!

Nothing for the post...just random rantings only..haha

Friends

Hmm... quite an unfamiliar term for me. Perhaps due to my character and experience, I have only very few friends that I can trust. I tried recalling when was the time when I innocently trusted and exposed my vulnerability to my so called friend and got hurt terribly. Was it during kindergarden or Primary school? I dun think I ever recovered from those experiences.

As of now, I have only a handful of friends whom I really call friends. Dun know, maybe I'm just not comfortable with some people and we can never be real friends. Acquaintance maybe, but never real friends. Should I be bothered? Nah, just random rantings and being emo. I shall stick to my present stand and shouldn't be too bothered.

Flea.Fly.Flo.Fun

Had great fun with Joan @ Flea.Fly.Flo.Fun at the pit building that day. Set up a booth to sell our pre-loved clothes and accessories. Surprisingly it was those obiang ones that sold out first..haha.
Managed to earn back our rent with a few dollars to spare which........we spend it on other things from other booths :p

Great experience and I can now donate those leftovers to the charities. ^^

April 2010

So fast, it's mid April already... what have you done so far this year?

Time check:
1. Did my dance classes
2. Brought a property
3. Gonna start writing business plans to chase my dreams

I suddenly felt very empty tonight. Is it because of the rain? Haiz, I should spend more time feeding my soul with music, dance and everything beautiful and tranquil..

简单的享受

今早心血来潮一个人到牛车水小贩中心吃早餐。空中祢满着好久没闻到的湿巴杀独特气味（不是我喜欢的 :p)。吃着津津有味的江鱼仔酿豆腐，听着耳熟能详的怀旧金曲，这不就是简单人生的一大享受吗？^^

Victoria Theater

Heard that Victoria Theater will be closed in Apr 2010 for renovation. Managed to capture it before it is closed. This place held lots of dear and happy memories for me. I still remembered my first and subsequent performances. It's stage is where I am the star.... to unleash my potential, to mesmerise the audience and to draw them into the dances.

曲终人散，不知何时能再次回到你的舞台上。我们后会有期.....

In remembrance of Clement

Everyday we save a lot of lives but then who will save ours..???

This was one of my colleague FB status last Thursday.... who would have thought it is so apt now.
Just got a very depressing news abt another of my colleague.
Though I am not very close to him, it is still sad to know someone you knew passed on....

Clement, I dun know what went through your mind to do what you did. But I do hope you will be happy and finally free from worries in this earthly world.

May you rest in peace

Energised and ready to go!

Been almost a month since my last update. Went to a trip in Genting and KL. Got to relax myself and enjoy a holiday with bf. And I finally started my flamenco dance class!! Can you believe all that I want and wish is coming to me?! Rem the prev entry I wrote on The Secret? It really works! What I have asked for is coming true for me (except the $20k part) hahaha. Maybe its something I did not do right..*shrug* But whatever, I'm gonna make it come true for me. ^^

I asked to be a savvy property investor and I want passive income. Guess what? I was intro to a property investment course by accident..(or was it?). I was very interested but I was financially not ready yet and the course fees were a bit steep to me. So I told myself that I will attend their future previews and see if I can get a better price. I sprain my ankle on my way to a preview... I dun know if it was the universe way of deterring my journey. But on the night before the next preview, I told myself that I will only sign on the course if the fees were below $3000. During that preview they offered the course fees as $2995! What can I say?

I have just came back from the program and it is totally worth the money... From now on, I am going to see money in a different angle, I want to be a big player. I also have to be more discipline to see thru the goals I have created. Trust me, I am going to live my life more fully and meaningfully from now on. I am going to take action and create the life that I want.

I am happy and live in abundance.
I have a healthy and happy relationship with my love
I am pretty and young and healthy
I am taking action to create wealth for myself
I believe these are coming to me and am grateful for all that I have and yet to come ^^

All that you can be is within you. Only you can unleash the potential in you. No one can make you unhappy if you want to be happy. Know that as a fact! ^^

May the wisdom be with you!
