Time passes so fast..
Wondering if I am really old le, which explains why time passes so fast? Or I simply have a more enriching lifestyle now...
It's 2008 le...
Looking back, I had the worst times in yr 2007 and 2006, but I thank these people and incidents for making me appreciate the better things I am having now...
Dear frds, thanks for all the support and encouragements...

sick sick sick
Have not been sick for quite a while.
Had a sudden attack of sore throat which led to fever. Slept at 11pm plus, awoke at 2am plus when my sis stepped on my ankle when she crossed over me to her bed. Then realised I had very bad sore throat. Climbed up for medicine and slept in the hall.. Till about 5am plus, felt so cold, yes, shit, running a fever le... Climbed up for medicine again and slept in my mum's room after she adjusted the air-con temperature.
Wanted to go work when alarm clocked rang at 7am.. My mum refused to let me go work as she felt that I did not have a good sleep. True enough, my fever came back in the noon and the worst thing was that there was no one at home.
Waited till 3pm for the clinic to open, dragged myself down to the clinic, bought pork porridge, cans of drink and sweets and staggered back home. Ate half the porridge and after medicine, went back to sleep. Hooray, broke out in sweat, meaning my fever had gone! The throat was slightly better, though not as pain.
Woke up at 7pm, ate the remaining porridge, watched telly and so fast, it's 12.13am now...
Time for sleep again, and hope I would feel so much better at work later =)

Cancer and Death Demons
Juz received a sms from my frd.. He is looking for B+ platelets for his uncle who has cancer. I feel sad.. for his uncle (bec I know him), and also for my frd, bec his dad died of cancer too. I wonder how is he feeling now? Sad? Helpless? Nothing bec he has given up on hope of recovery for cancer?
Same case - cancer. Same scenario - relapse. I am also convinced that if you have cancer, you will die of cancer. My frd’s grandpa and dad died of cancer. He once told me that he is likely to have cancer too and his mum told me that next time I might have to make frequent trips to the hospital and take care of him.
My frd also has a funny yet practical concept. His grandpa died ard age of 80, his dad at age of 50. So he thinks he will get cancer even earlier and might die ard age of 40. So he wants to retire early and play hard now. His mum said she did not want to go through any treatment if she ever has cancer. At that time, I do not know what to say. What they said are not senseless. You can’t call it pessimistic if you have witnessed your family member went through the torturous treatments for years and encouraged them to fight even if they have less than 50% winning chance and eventually died of the demon illness.
I understood one thing at that time, being able to go where you like, do what you like and eat what you like is actually a blessing. A simple yet overlooked blessing. At that time, I remembered the poor dad wanted to go China (think he had not been there before and was thinking of going there when he gets older, but who knows…), the doctor did not really encourage due to several factors. So, the lesson is do what you want while you can. Do not wait. You think you can afford to wait, but actually it’s not your call.
That was the first time I know cancer demon. And first time I know death demon.
The first time I witnessed a person slowly losing his every breathe until the last breathe. A baby with his first breathe till a man with his last breathe. This is life?
Scary.
Misunderstandings
Misunderstandings can be quite frightening~
Things that can be mis-interpreted:
Recently, I learnt that some people really work differently from other people, even in a relationship. Or maybe it’s really the difference between a male and a female…
Have gone through some experiences that I would like to share and also to remind myself:
1) Misunderstanding One
He was so busy with work these days that he could not even afford to go out and relax on a Saturday afternoon. Having known that on Friday night, I offered to go over his house to accompany him since I have nothing to do. As he was having golf lesson on Saturday morning, he said he would call me the next day when he finished his golf lesson. The next morning, I woke up to see his sms telling me that the golf lesson was postponed. And that was all. It did not tell me that whether he wanted me to go over his house. In the end, I became a bit upset and sms-ed him that I might not be going over if he wanted to concentrate on his work as I was afraid I might be a nuisance. He just answered in a way that made me feel that I could decide if I wanted to go over. In the end, I gave up and went over. As I am a 大女人, I expected him to wait for me somewhere near his house or below his house. However, he just gave plain instructions how to go his house. As I was late, I decided to get a cab instead of taking the long bus journey. Thinking that he would wait for me downstairs and accompany me to eat lunch or buy lunch with me, he told me to get my own lunch. I was really a bit pissed off by that time and I gave him an unfriendly message. It was only when he explained that he was waiting for the part-time maid to reach his house and therefore he could not leave his house, and he was waiting for me to buy my lunch so that he could eat his dabao lunch with me when I reached. OK, it was a misunderstanding. He never told me about having to wait for the part-time maid. And I was touched that he was waiting for me to eat lunch with him as his mum bought his lunch long ago. So I forgave him…
2) Misunderstanding Two
He was again so busy these days that he had to work late one day. We were on Chinese medicine that had to continue for 3 days for me, and 6 days for him. He sms-ed me that he had to work late and would bring me my medicine that his father helped us to brew when he finished work and reached home. Deciding to be nice, I stayed back to finish some work and in the end, both of us worked till 9pm. He told me he would see me at his house. My mind was working again: I got to make my own way to his house again? Hmm… I told him I did not really know how to go his house from my office. The blockhead gave me instructions in the sms. What der..!!…Sigh, ok, luckily my colleague worked late too and we left together and headed the same direction as she lived near the area. He reached home and checked with me that I was at the MRT station and told me to take a bus in while he would go take a bath. I was cursing and swearing in silence again. CAN’T HE PICK ME UP?? Nevermind, I was too tired to scream at him anyway. So I obediently made my way to his house. When I stepped in, I realized he was busy heating up the dinner for both of us. OK, it was another misunderstanding. He never told me he was going to heat up the dinner. Well, I enjoyed my dinner and night =D

Kukup Kelong
Long long time no update.. Being lazy, being busy with work, till I come back home, no mood to type anything, just msn with a couple of frds, then would try to concuss early… but still 1am plus le.. Hmm, trying to recall the events that are memorable and will list them out..
The recent one is the kelong trip. 50 pple went there to try sink the kelong~
It’s the 2nd trip, very different from the one I have gone the last time, but still, another experience.
It’s at Kukup. And actually more like chalet than a kelong.
It’s cement-built, not wooden planks. There is a hall, kitchen and 3 rooms. Each room has double-decked beds that can accommodate up to 8 people.
This trip was organized by my ex-colleague, Dylan Ong. I heard the pple calling him Ah-Ong. He looks blur, but he is actually a very good organizer and coordinator. This trip is a success, all due to him. I always think it’s funny to see him doing the headcount with his eyes, and not finger.. hahaha…
For those two days, we were eating seafood for almost every meal! Till now, I am still trying to avoid fish, prawn, crab… Have been eating chicken for the past few days since the trip, ahahaha.. Lunch at Kukup Fishing village: Prawn, Crab, Fish, vegetable, beancurd. Dinner at kelong: BBQed ready food: Prawn, Crab, Fish, Squid, hotdog, sausage, chicken wing etc.. Breakfast 2nd Day: Fish with nasi lemak. Lunch: Prawn, Crab, Fish, Chinese Mussels, fried Baby Squid, chicken, fried egg, vegetable. I was home and hungry during dinner time, but I only cooked instant noodles… No more rice and seafood for me.. “puke puke” For now. I still love seafood wor..
As for the activities, at the kelong, there was nothing much to do. To me, it was really a pure rest and relax day. No shopping, no walking long long distance.. As there was about 50plus pax, we booked 3 units of kelong. Eventually, people were split into these units according to their interests. 1st unit: KTV unit with 2 tables of mahjong for people who could not get a seat at the other unit. 2nd unit: Gambling Den. 3rd unit: Playground for the kids. So I was naturally in the KTV unit as I was already residing in the first unit. Sang, played games with the kids, played a bit of mahjong and after all the eating, we played firework. It was my first time, very loud and a bit scary bec i kept getting burnt! Dylan told me we all forked out abt $800 for the fireworks.. Wow... Got mini fireworks, and
also bigger bigger and nicer firework. After all these, I was real tired and finally time to sleep... (>o<)
Then the strangest thing happened.. Before I slept, I knew the light in the hall and our room’s toilet was not off.. In the middle of the nite, it was pitch dark, till I could see the stars in the sky.. So was wondering, “wow.. everyone so guai, sleep so early…” Then when I went to the kitchen to get water, I saw 2 guys rushing in and I was like “oh oh, no one lock the main door hor…” Lucky they were the people living at the kelong and coming in to check the power box. So, it was POWER FAILURE! No wonder I felt warm for no reason… I went out of the unit, saw the ex-colleagues in the gambling den unit standing outside their unit too.. Mine were all sleeping in their rooms.. Even when the power came back. Ahahaha.. This was the 2nd time I faced power failure for the last 2 mths.. The other time was at KTV, yes, decent KTV outlet can also have power failure..
The next day morning, we had a packed schedule: went to mangrove swamp and fish farm. Hmm, nothing really exciting as I am not one who can appreciate the green green leaves and brown brown trunks.. Yup, saw a few crabs, spiders, kind of snails on the trunks of trees and meaningful phrases etc… Was trying to entertain myself… ahaha.. Only worth mentioning would be the suspension bridge inside the mangrove swamp. Only abt 2-3 storeys high, and cannot jump, cannot sway, so spoiler…
I did try to bounce a bit with every step, kekeke.. Then went to climb a 6-storey high wooden tower, just to see green and green and green… faint.. Went to the fish farm, nothing fantastic. It’s a showcase of a fish farm, so do not have many fishes..
Took the bus back to Singapore after the heavy lunch. Luckily, it was not as bad as the first bus ride, so did not feel like vomiting. It was not me being lousy, u guys know that I am adventurous rider. It was the stupid coke gas that went up and down in my stomach >.<

《不能说的秘密》
Oh, 周杰伦。。。众所周知，这部电影的来头是周董的宝贝。是导演、男主角，也是写这个故事的编写人。。。 听起来像是在告诉大家：我就是这么多才多艺，尽管被评咬字不清、演技木纳等，“周杰伦”这三个字就是号召力！
去看这部电影时，没多少要求，心想着就是去看周董如何酷咯~
看了之后，只能说物有所值。
单纯的爱情故事，通过平庸的校园生活，轻松的演技手法，带出了不可思议的解释和结局。。。感动度恰好，即使看了第二遍，我还是看得入神。。。
《不能说的秘密》这首歌也是在戏的结尾才听到。虽然在较早前已经从朋友那儿听到，但随着故事的结尾而播出，还是耐人寻味。戏里的钢琴曲让人陶醉，朋友们都恨不得立刻去学弹钢琴！目睹了周董的钢琴才华，也不得不服。
“周杰伦”这三个字，暂时有“刮目相看”的感觉！
Moving On...
It’s been half a month since I update my blog.
Many frds have been asking how have I been.. Thanks for the concern, my dear frds..
I am getting better.. much faster than I think I would be..
What have I done for the past weeks?
Hmm, went for movies, more karaokes and frds and ex-colleagues gatherings and dinners, and even watching firework during the NDP Preview and Firework Festival!
I guess I am really moving on =)
Will update more and upload abt the events I have mentioned!!
