weird

these days i feel very tired yet when it is late, i cannot get asleep, hmm, insomnia, could this be due to work stress?

watched the mark lee 'fan yan kan shi jie', like this show cos get to see other ctries' culture, esp the recent episodes on europe, really makes me remember the good times i had in germany for my exchange.their different lifestyle, their different life motto: which basically is 'work hard and play hard'. as quoted by the taiwanese who married a dutch in today's episode: they work to live and not live to work. and how their bosses will view them as 'inefficient' if they need to work OT. so so different fm asian countries, where OT is the norm. another different culture is that it's norm for teenagers in europe to move out and their parents actually feel 'proud' that their kids are independent now, whereas here, children lived with their parents as long as they can, some even after marriage...

dunno why i am so grouchy today, oh well, ming tian hui gen hao i hope...

aimless

everyday passes by so quickly and i did not have the time to stop and ask myself, what i want in my life?

i know i can't just let time slip off my hand, i need to do sth, but...but but but, all the butts...

i have to know what i want and stay focused. time wait for no man.

no matter wat, being happy is still what matters most.

Gambatte!

Dinner with Ntu PaLzz

Wow, guess its been one year since we last met up (not counting our convo, as it was super rushed that day)?!? Time passed amazingly fast...still rem those days we rushed after work (fm diff parts of sg) to attend lects,grinz

dinner at de paolo PIZZA (We made a hiccup by gg to 'de paolo' which is also on the same stretch at chip bee garden (HV) but 'de paolo' is like much more high end than 'de paolo pizza'. still can rem the funny aka 'pissed' face on the waitress when we realised the mistake AFTER ordering our ice/warm water...)

de paolo pizza is more crowded as prices are more def friendlier. the chef pizza was YUMMY, with mushroom prawn and mozarrala cheese!!! *drool* the calamari was nice but felt it was a tad too ex at $20. the other pizza we ordered is called rocket vege (Sth like dat) which is ...how shd i say it, 'acquired taste'

started updating each other of our life, our work, etcetc. laughed laughed laughed.

had dessert at nydc at hv. jedi mudster, YUMMY!

now bloated tummy but happy!

Nostalgia

Today worked late, luckily sis sharon able to give me a lift home, thanks sis, muackZ

went to meet her at pgp, walked through the familiar corridors and visited the aircon food court. So much has changed, all the stalls have changed! but strangly, it still feels the same. Nostalgia overwhelms me as I thought of the happy carefree times back then.

ate the 'famous cheese prata' fm pgp and wondered why they name their stall 'famous'. watched 'just for gags'. really hilarous. well, like the way the caucasians react when told they have been played a prank. Most smiled and laughed and gamely posed for the camera. wonder what is the reaction in asia? tink most will blush/look away fm camera and some might even be pissed...

as quoted fm 'desiderata', with all its sham drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world. :)
