Holding a grenade

Accelerate or halt?

Sometimes we try to do things in hope of improvements to conditions. But some incidents make us just want to halt everything and end it all.

There has to be reasons to sustain anything.

Which way do I want to accelerate? Although it may not be up to me any more.

An Interesting Life

As the saying goes, change is the only constant. And as i sit and think back about the past week, the past month, the past quarter, i am constantly in awe about the speed of time. Along with it brings along the multiple changes in my life and the life of the people around me.

i have always wished for life to like a comedy, a sitcom - the usual cast, the regular hangouts, the interesting life, witty conversations yet always a happy ending. I mean seriously, even when someone dies in there, its still kind of funny (morbid, yes).

Happy Halloween People!

Thank you for being able to describe me as it is, better than myself and still see the good in me ... most importantly telling me that in a different circumstance, we stood a chance. 

Im grateful for our friendship and how u see the good in me beyond many others.  :)

Attention seeking bed

My bed is such an attention seeker! Every time im supposed to be out, it calls out to me to spend more time together!

Best job ever - Emb1

Started with Saphy posting on fb about missing EMB 1 and Adrian liking some old videos of our no sales day... such fond memories of life in Emb1.... how we loved our jobs and bosses. Every day was crazy busy but enjoyable. .bosses were understanding, approachable, appreciative and empathetic.

Monetary reward was a direct relationship to the results delivered.

Hmm enjoy the reminiscing for a bit, pick urself up and move forward. 

Escalator Phobia Syndrome?

as many probably already know about my escalator phobia and how i almost know where all the lifts are... so earlier, Crystal and Serena and myself were waiting for the lift to the Raffles Place MRT and it was mad packed with people. so the conversation below happened..

Crystal:"  why so many people waiting for the lifts ah? i thought the escalator just round the corner "
Me: " hmm.. maybe actually there are many people with escalator phobias? "

and i thought for awhile and added... " and maybe the rest are 陪朋友"

and we started luffing coz the 2 of them were 陪朋友-ing!


haha

but seriously, that stupid Raffles Place escalator is mad fast la!

Wedding of Mr & Mrs Lum

It has been a long while since I really attended a full day wedding - being involved as jie mei and all. Weddings used to be events that I really looked forward to until some things that happened in recent years for the past few weddings and I seriously avoided attending weddings. I end up not enjoying weddings and even feel scared of it.

It is usually with much reluctance that I attend any wedding simply coz its hard to really reject some of the people you are really close to.

I am glad for dear dear's wedding, she was really sweet and considerate.  The day went really well. Chris was also really nice and I would say he had nice brothers.

Dear dear was gorgeous as aways, we took loads of beautiful pictures. Congrats mr and mrs lum! May you stay blissful!

          




dear dear's very young cousin.. only 17.. 17 岁离我太遥远了！
