Back To School

 

Life has been pretty sweet. Except GPA, everything else is going quite smooth. Thinking back, I’ve still made a few friends in hall and CAC. As this semester starts, I can’t help feeling nostalgic on how good it is to be a freshie. I’ve aged! I was like them a year ago, feeling all fresh, curious and excited to be in the new environment of NTU.

Now I have my own OGs to take care of.

Now the friends that I have around seem kind of different. Friends come and go at different times. I have known that and have embraced that truth. Maybe it’s just a part of me that always like to lament on that.

Year 2 is really a fast-paced one. I can’t seem to afford long hours of not doing work. Unlike in year 1 when I’m practically having HTHTs at all nights. Sigh…

I’ve gotten a book recently. It’s not a new one, I’ve seen it before. But now I don’t ever want to look back at it, especially at the last page.

Whether I get to stay hall again will depend on my commitments this year. I know what I have to do to stay again but why am I feeling so undecided?

Assumption =(

When I’m upset, there’s nothing specific I’ll do. I’ll just flip through everything I can see or find while my disarrayed mind tries to set things in order. I hate that. It’s not productive in any way but rotting my life away thinking about useless stuff. But I just can’t help it.

Assumption is good, probably only in science and mathematics, I guess. It’s actually bad when you’re talking about human relations. Like er… I think you’re thinking about that but I’m assuming you know I’m thinking like this. No… No good at all especially when the truth isn’t anything like what you assume. Yes, truth kills! Be it in any method that it’s delivered to you. Only difference is just which method hurts more that’s all.

Maybe I’m in the wrong. Just let me have a little corner to rant my frustrations out.

That’s Life, move on!

I’m back! Oh, what does that mean when I’m actually still in Singapore…

Took a few photographs with xiao bao’s camera. Added some nostalgic feel to it. How’s that? Does it look very 1980s? Haha.

I’m so addicted to a new RPG “Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4”!

Maybe if you had played previous version, you would have more idea what I’m talking about.

This game sets you into the future in 2011. Although it’s a turn-based game, it’s so interactive in terms of its game play. It’s entirely up to you how you want to strike a balance between the fighting-life and the social-life in game and different answers puts you in a different scenario. There’s so many things to do in there that you can never get sick of. Even when playing through the main game, it already takes you more than 35+ hours. Something worth a try. =)
 
I always think I spent so much time sitting that I would never get used to standing more than 2 hours. LOL, but my job proved that standing should be the least of my concern. Comparing that with the trouble of convincing irritating and demanding customers; facing the dual-faced permanent staff; working with solely profit-oriented boss; standing didn’t seem so bad at all! Fortunately, there are a bunch of NTU students there in the same plight as me. Sorrow shared, not as bad in the end. I don’t know how much they think of this work place but definitely not a place that I will return to.

Hmm, recently, I’ve seen my tutee more often than xiao bao. I hope she doesn’t mind too much. Haha.

Just a few weeks more, I’ll return to school not as a freshman anymore… Time passes really fast! It just runs faster after 21. Ha.

Whatever will be, will be

Sometimes little things you do can piss people off just like the subtle kind of actions that your friends do can do much to annoy. Perhaps we do get a little insensitive sometimes…

I haven’t been blogging about myself that much. Don’t know how I should write about it anymore.

Thought about the new lesson plan I should have soon. I may not be able to get the same lessons as Sont and Henry anymore. =( Feeling more distant in a way… Sucks.

Also thought about my commitment in the new year. I don’t feel like joining anything. Maybe just a thing or two. Pressure from parents to just focus on what I have to ‘do’. On the other hand, what about the pressure the hall seniors exert on you to influence the next batch of freshmen to be actively involved in hall? It hasn’t happen but I can see it coming real soon. When that comes, what will my choice be like?

Why do I seem to have a dual personality that I myself just cannot deal with… Friends think that I don’t get mad at anything but I’m not. In fact I can possibly get mad at anything.

Hi Mr. Ho, why am I so imperfect? Can I care more about the people around me and stop having to put myself in the centre of the universe?

Speed!

Happened to chance through the Firefox website and found 2 videos that I find amazing. Submission by people to represent the speediness of Firefox.

Somehow, according to the acid test, Safari 4.0 has overtaken Firefox in terms of the most compatible browser in the eyes of W3. However, I’m so addicted to Firefox, I think I’ll just stick with it.

Life’s like this

First H1N1 case in Singapore… Sounds bad that Singapore has become one of the list of unfortunate countries who received such cases. Wonder how many more people that shared the plane with her caught it.

On another note, I came across this Death Note Parody Website. There’s a funny video on the site, here’s the video.

It seems like it’s not just a fan video because the celebrities are involved too! Haha. It’s actually a blog where people can write entries on how people they hate die. Sounds satanic but most people just write popular icons that they hate and it’s really funny the things that they write.

I came across a website that allows you to create your own web avatar that may or may not resembles you. There’s lots of tweaking options available. Here’s mine. Do I look like that? Ha

Interesting Pool

World’s deepest swimming pool. 2 pools, 3 pits of 5, 10 and 33m. Total of 2.5 million litres of water!

Cute Videos

2 videos that I’ve seen. All great videos. =D Which one do you personally like more?

Holidays

 

 

I was worried I couldn’t find time to play. I had lots of time now… Temporary job is so hard to find now. I can’t have the freedom to shop around unless I’m secured with a job! Moreover, now that it’s back to code yellow for swine flu, I don’t think companies are hiring people for temperature taking jobs then. I didn’t perform well for another interview. I think my main problem is I did nothing impressive.

Dear Mr Ho,
Please take note that chances for interview come rare. Please be more prepared next time you get one.

 

Signed,
Mr Ho.

Okay, it’s just a personal reminder. Sigh.

It’s been ages since I last went to zoo. Probably it was with my family I think. A whole day is enough to visit every animals and their shows. It’s tired to walk the whole day too. I guess I didn’t have enough water to hydrate myself. If you are not stingy on water then I guess you could purchase a small bottle of drink costing $3 from the vending machine!

I was fascinated by the white-tailed peacock! It looks really beautiful! The feathers are as pure white as a unicorn. There’s one young elephant that didn’t obey all the commands. Halfway through the show, it was distracted to do something else. The more senior and well-trained elephant came and soon the show picked up and showed more interesting stuff.

Just when I thought Singapore Zoo was all about animals, I found something peculiar and went to check it out. They do exhibit random fruit like mangosteen! So there I was doing a random action for a candid photo. Ha.

At the end of the day, I wondered why the zoo didn’t offer free tram rides like Sentosa. We spent literally the entire day walking under the hot sun… It’s not like the zoo tickets are any cheaper than Sentosa entrance fees. Haha.

Learnt something more about myself again. I really shouldn’t be that gullible to believe everything people tell me. Yes, it’s just another pure reminder to myself only.

Another ending…

 

Another semester is coming to end soon. I’m feeling troubled by the things I can’t control. System bounds everyone to a thinking space restrained with so called rules and regulations… There are many people I want to help to get them into hall but even given the rights and power to argue for them, it is still insufficient. Once again, it can be said that the system is to be blamed for… But who creates system?

I just manage to dig out this photo that was taken last semester. That seems like a really long time back. Things aren’t really the same now… What was good then seemed different now. Maybe only when things change, then you’ll treasure the memories you left behind.

The nearer it is to exams the harder it is to focus. Recently, I had spend an hour camwhoring with JY in addition to getting hooked on other stuff like playing solitaire… Anything meaningless usually can seem like a break for me. I can’t wait for it to end yet I want more time to study. I bet everyone in hall is feeling the same I guess.

I’m starting to feel sick of staying in halls. Haven’t been going home for very long time. Missed everything back there. The home-cooked food, my bed, my TV, etc...

Met up with my brother and my mum today at Harbourfront for dinner. My brother would be enlisted on the day of my first paper so I thought I should see him again before that. I think it’s also miserable to spend a birthday in camp. He seemed like he is in a bad condition. Scars all over, no front teeth. If I was him, I would have filled with regrets over what I did to land myself in that situation. It seemed like he didn’t feel this way.

Mum told me that dad and her went to watch movies. They are not sure about the locations of the cinemas so they went to look around for quite some time. When they found it, they were told that dad could get the ticket at $4 under elderly discount category. It was then that I thought to myself that I hadn’t realise all these while when I’m growing up, time has passed so discreetly and had taken the youth out of my parents’ life too.

Now they are old enough to be considered an elderly. They are lost on where to go even in heartland areas like Ang Mo Kio. I supposed my dad is too hard on working that they hadn’t have time to take on ample leisure time to rest. It’s then that I thought that I should treasure them for all their love that they have given me to bring me to where I am.

My mum passed me a bag filled with cans of herbal tea and instant cup noodles. She knows that I’m too lazy to cook packet noodles so she put in cup noodles instead. Out came the words in Chinese, “You must know how to take care of yourself lei.” I felt touched deep inside. I didn’t think I show any expression though. It’s just not me who will show it directly. Would I have as much time to give back to them as they had for all these years?

I keep getting sore eyes. I haven’t been crying hard or doing something naughty. Oh God, please let me be well soon… Ha.

Food for Thoughts

Haven’t been writing in a while. I was much denied of free time to do what I feel like doing. My life almost equals to studies now.

I have read through some comments on the so called NTU stabbing incident. Apparently, I think there are many fishy issues over it.

The student didn’t slit his wrist at all according to the autopsy report unlike what Professor Chan had claimed earlier. (Wondered where the news got the wrist-cutting part from…)

The ‘knife’ that was thought to be brought by the student is actually the Professor’s one. There was no murder weapon found in the bag except the normal schooling stuff: pencil case, notes, etc… (How would the student know where the Professor keep the knife unless the Professor took out the knife…)

There was a deep slit on David’s neck that had cut part of the artery which was never reported before earlier. (Was there any purpose in hiding this one?) There was a lot of blood on the student’s butt that is shown from the photograph I’ve seen from the blog, where did that come from?

David’s parents were denied the chance to see Professor and were told that he’s in critical conditions when the news reported that he’s in stable condition after applying stitches to the wound. Only Dr Su directly hear from Professor and gave media through his words. (Were there some sort of purpose to consider in hiding the truth?)

Apparently, there were many controversial issues over such an incident. I’m not ruling out the possibilities over the case that student has really stabbed the professor but I’m sure there’s pretty much more than it meets the eye. Not providing any links here but the things would be able to find from many sources. Maybe it’s time we should analyse news in a more objective perspective… I don’t know how biased the news can be.

Watched the Joint-Dance Concert on Sunday. It was really not bad except a few glitches like having a really lousy emcee and a bit of overpowering NLB staff and uncooperative audience. The emcee stuttered too many times! Even a simple sentence of ‘Let us welcome bla bla bla…’, he’s also making mistakes. Sounded really unprofessional and some were laughing over it. Spoiled the all cool mood of the dance performance!

NLB Staff were very strict about people moving in to sit towards the centre seats, leaving no vacant seats in between. Apparently, there’ll be problems for people reserving seats for friends who will be arriving late. There were some quarrels over this.

Other than that, they were very strict about disallowing photography and mobile phones. They flashed torchlight at the person doing that and sounded that out in a not so discreet manner. The VIPs were somehow near there and I thought that was quite embarrassing in a way.

Another argument was during the intermission period when there were people playing PSP. The staff again interfered and ordered the audience to switch that off. There’s this parent that quarrelled loudly with the staff, demanding her rights to do what she wants during the intermission break. She threatened the staff to complain about her bad attitude. The parent was more fierce than the staff… Oh man, talking about gracious Singaporeans… I think we haven’t reach that, not yet not yet.

Despite all that, there was this amazing performance put up by the disabled that really inspired me. They danced pretty well in wheelchairs considered that they only have their hands to help them move around in timing. There was one that was slightly out of timing but nevertheless, I observed joy among them in dancing. The passionate look on their faces showed me that they never think that they are lacking in any ways compared to the healthy people. It was really awesome. To live life with passion is to live life to the max! =)

Sometimes, I take people for granted and in return people take me for granted too. But there were people whom you can’t choose whether to have them in your life or not. My brother thinks that I’m too much of a busybody to nag him on his expenditures and when I choose to go out with his friends and him. I’m born to be his brother. If I could have a choice, I would want a older sibling to take care of me instead of me being the one who looks out for somebody who doesn’t even appreciate.

I’m told by Poo Hee that I’m supposed to perform for Talentime this Thursday. Doom. I really have no idea what song I should choose… =/

If Only A Day Has 24Hrs More

 

 

I could have choose to miss out everything in hall for a more peaceful academic life but I chose otherwise. I keep telling myself, it’s only for a year and I’ll move on to my studies. I don’t know why but I keep missing home recently.

Kayaking was quite fun as a hall activity. Somehow it reminds me of the times when I was secondary 3. That was long time ago when I participated OBS expedition. Ha. Only now with a different group of people.

There were still many lame things that are done in university. I used to think the older you are, the less lame stuff you do. Somehow, not exactly true.  Perhaps, it’s a temporary phase to go through knowing that once you step into the working world, you wouldn’t even dream of the chance of acting stupid or doing lame things with your colleagues. Ha.

I’m thankful of my friends for celebrating my birthday especially Jeremy. =) Thanks! I was only thinking why would JCRC hold monthly meeting on a Thursday which usually will fall on Wednesday. I didn’t even think that Jeremy will call Baohui down too. Haha. The jacket that I’m wearing in the photo is the present. Oots. My first Adidas jacket then. Haha. Oh by the way, thanks for the wishes, Ruth. =)  

I was also surprised that Baohui took me to this place called Keppel By The Bay where there were a few restaurants by the seaside. It’s an island near Harbourfront. The best thing of all was that the cab driver didn’t even know where it is. The place looks very posh and there were many yachts docked to the harbour. Someday I’m going to park mine! That is if I manage to earn that much. Waha. Everything starts with a dream :)

The restaurant that I thought we were going to dine at isn’t really a restaurant at all. It’s a gastro bar. The food’s nice actually. Look at the strawberries! (YUM!) However, it would be weird not to order any liquor at a bar. So we ordered some orange flavoured liquor which really tasted weird.

It had been a long time since I felt that relaxed. Thanks for the surprise. I really love it lots.

Valentine’s day celebration was fun too. This time round had to bring change of clothing. Kind of troublesome but oh well… There’s always a first time for everything. Ha. Literally toured from west to east and to central before returning to west again. Taxi fares were of course not any much lesser than other expenses. Lol. I think I need canvassing for my wallet too. Ha.

I think the simplest surprise can be really sweet as well. Something she gave me really touched me to the core of my heart. =) I had not expected that coming.

Someday I hope I can close my eyes and listen. To really listen for the gentle calls of the heart. Even without words, being in the company of each other is enough for the souls. =)

I wish the best for all my dear friends too. Hope you all had a fulfilling time with your dear friends and families and spending meaningful moments together.

Circle of Friends

Many fragments of thoughts in my head now. The following things would be mentioned with no direct links to each other whatsoever. I usually blog when I’m feeling sad. But this time it’s different.

Got cheated to be the only one from my batch to show up for Frank’s pageant competition. Moreover, the program’s really boring, unlike any other competitions I’ve seen. There were only 2 walkthroughs for the contestants in clothes that looked almost the same. The theme is not very strongly brought out. Most of them didn’t walk in a style how models walk. Their poses look pretty awkward too. Ha. Maybe the organisers had spent too much booking down Zouk for the event, probably.

This year CNY seems very short. Perhaps by CNY day 2 I already had to go back hall for presentation meeting. Ang bao amount is a lot lesser this year now that economy is really bad. Not expecting much anyway.

The relatives that I meet annually seem to be distant this year. Not sure why I felt this way though, perhaps because they really can’t tell me apart from my younger brother. The picture on the left is him. I don’t find us looking any similar though.

My cousins have grew taller. I’m still pretty much the same. Haha. I guess I’m really old and really soon I would be busy working day after day and a family to take care of when I’m back. Responsibilities to shoulder and mouths to feed. By then, would all the fun I have now disappear from my life totally? Where else can I find the strength to keep me going?

Thought about the 3 months break later this year. I think I really need to go work and earn some money, otherwise I don’t think I’m able to last 4 years with the current rate of expenditure. Ha.

Suddenly I feel like singing…  I have a melody that’s coming from nowhere, no purpose. Just a feeling I want to express. I want to thank all my friends who have been through my life. Thanks to Mingxiu and Hengyi who have made my secondary school days less monotonous. Thanks Ruth for being such a nice mei but I think I was never that nice back. =) Ha. Thanks to Jian Yuan and Esmond who have made JC seem so much more lively and entertaining. Thanks to Choonpei and Weina who have made me feel that it’s possible to have a friend who can just listen to you. Thanks to Lipsin and Hui Chuan who made my NS life less miserable. Thanks to Keefer and Jialing, Starhub clique who made my job something to look forward to day after day. Thanks Weiyen for being there to hear me out at the weirdest of times. Thanks Edwin, Shanghao, Poo Hee for making my hall stay worth it. There are still many more people I want to thank. It’s you that keeps me going. I hope I can do the same to you too. 

Thanks Bao for everything you did. It’s been difficult for both of us to find time for each other but I’m glad we tided through. Happy 2 months dear! =)

New Year Updates

 

 

It’s the start of 2009. Just finished with many of the IHRG and IHG pretty soon. There were many things I have learnt about during the year of 2008 to now and I have become more careful of what I have to and got to say. Being quiet at times becomes inevitable if I don’t want to be shot at unnecessary. Some politics will just be there even if you don’t want to believe so. It hurts when you know that it’s your friend who shoots comments at you not face to face, but through others. Everything can be used as a yardstick to compare on.

 

I’m happy that I finally see through the end of hall cheerleading. It has been an eye-opener experience to understand the sweat, friendship and teamwork of being a cheerleader. Throughout that period, many persevered while some dropped out. It’s not an easy effort from a total noobie to be trained a cheerleader. At least I’m proud of my own performance. =)

Ever since the training ended, there’s many things that had changed. No more night trainings that the team dreads. No more toleration of each other’s mistakes. No more sweat and laughter from the same few people whom I have seen almost every night. Suddenly, the night just seems to have quieten down. Perhaps I start to miss all the things that I used to do. =) 

I really feel thankful for everyone who came down to watch my performance. Big hug to you all. =) I want to thank Jian Yuan for collecting the goody bag for me. Felt bad that I couldn’t attend his event due to training.

 

Met up with Hengyi and Chris. It’s one of the rare occasions to meet up. I think my secondary school friends are generally very rich. Always tend to feel the uncomfortable distance between them and me. Be it their spending habits, hobbies, etc just don’t seem to click anymore… =/

Looking forward to Chinese new year. I’ll be another year older soon. The 2009 me that’s in the mirror seems much older, tired… I suppose ageing is something that’ll come sooner or later after 21. Mum seems to be less energetic recently. Part of me wants to graduate soon so that I can help in the family. Another part of me has reach that mentality level yet. There’s many things I want to learn, I want to see and experience before I step into the workforce for good. I can’t visualise what I’ll probably do in the future but for now I’ll be going full swing into studies. I must do much much much better this semester.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

 

 

 

 

It's kind of late to wish everyone merry Christmas here but it takes some time to sort out photos and to sum up what I want to say.

I had a different Christmas this year. I'm feeling very much in bliss although many things could have been a lot better. I am starting to see how complicated the social circle is. The more people you know, the more you would have to manage yourself and your friends better. At least that's what's expected of you if you want to maintain a nice impression in front of everyone. I have always wanted to be as nice as I can to everyone but that's not that possible it seems. Sorry friends if I have neglected some of you. I'll find a way to prioritise my time better. I'm still learning but it feels like time has less tolerance of me as I grow older.

Christmas eve is memorable for me. It doesn't matter where I spend it as long as I'm with you. =)

The food in Giraffe is very much expensive. The quality is not bad. Ambience is rather soothing for me I feel. The music they played was not the typical Christmas songs I thought. They played many Enrique's songs. What a pity it was raining that day otherwise it would have been a splendid ambience! The service is good. We hesitated for quite a bit on the Xmas meal but the waiter waited patiently for us to decide on the orders and the winning smile was more than enough to please the customers. It's worth returning on any other days. =)

We had fun in our own world playing with the party fedora hats they provided. I even wanted to play with the party poppers if it was at an alfresco setting. I figured that it would be pretty embarrassing or attention-catching if I did that. LOL. The seats I reserved were actually outdoor but the manager was nice enough to change seats for us when I asked for it. It's quite weird though as the only available table is a 6-seater table. BH and I just sat side by side at a corner of the round table that stationed right smack in the centre of the place. The rest must be thinking what's so special of us to take such a big table. Haha.

I was surprised that BH tried her best to dress up well for me. I would say she looks very elegant even without wearing skirt. Ha. Of course not in FBT shorts and VJ T-shirt that she jokingly said she'll turned out in. I supposed I had over dressed to some extent. Many people were staring at me which somehow make me feel very much uncomfortable.

After dinner, I thought it would be best to keep out of streets if I want to avoid being sprayed by foam. Although it's not legal anymore, it's still rather prevalent in the town areas. Aye, I would rather not take any chance. Movie was the next option. Twilight wasn't at all what I thought. It turned out to be a romance story that even kids can watch. Ha. I also got an ice-cream treat from her. For me, there seems no difference between Ben&Jerry's to Gelare to Andersen's ice-cream. I know ice-cream lovers will argue on that but that's just what I feel.

Grand cathay's cinema is really different. It looks so grand and the setting is very much like a musical theatre. =x Were we not supposed to take photographs in there?

After movie, we had supper over at Rochor tau huay area where we also had gift exchange when midnight strikes. She's observant to realise that my wallet's condition is much close to unusable state. LOL. *Touched* Little action speaks volume. =)

I had a Christmas party at Valerie's uncle's house too. Another mega-huge place for such parties. There were many people I don't know. Some are Edith's friends and some are Val's friends. They were many more guys than girls there and it felt like a ORD gathering. Ha. I'm glad I still feel a familiar sense of belonging to the group of friends whom I've not met for some time. I realise gift exchange is only nice if everyone makes effort to source for presents. Karma will ensure that people who wrap 'presents' from unused items will get similar treatment. LOL!

I love the part when everyone got together to play the sparklers to form words. Xuguang was actively trying to finish blowing his present (bottle of bubble foam). Come to think of it, there isn't any log cake to eat this year.

The Christmas celebration in hall was somehow not as good as I thought. Not sure if everyone was tired after playing IHG or simply not as supportive. Food and drinks were not bad but there really weren't enough time to put up superb music performance. I'm sure a little cheer and encouragement would do some good...

So far 2008 has been very much exciting for me. I tried out many things new and learnt many things. I'm grateful for all the good things that had happened and will cherish the love from the people around me. It's not possible to please everyone or do everything perfectly. I just want to look back things with a smile.

I had finished sorting my thoughts out. Good friends are like footprints in each other's sand. If you had never any more intention to step into my sand, soon the past traces of footprint will be erased by the sea and be lost. No matter how hard you try to seek it, it's gone...

Another chapter of my life is gone. My new year wish is to do better in studies and relationship. Happy 2009 everyone!

Expectations

Thanks weiyen for the Christmas card. It's lovely. It came as a surprise to me too. =) It was a fun night out sourcing for Christmas presents. Takashimaya is really a one-stop place for that. Don't expect the crowd to be any lesser than what you can imagine.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just keep getting affected by the same things. It sucks. I don't want to keep things by myself but what else can I do. If nothing is being discussed, nothing can be solved and problems remain if not worse. Perhaps in the first place, there's not even a strong common understanding to start with. I'm tired of it.

If I have a Christmas wish, can I wish for everyone to be happy?

I'm Loving It...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It feels fresh writing on a new blog template especially one with fresh colours.

Life's been pretty good for me in general. Bao has been really sweet and subtly has become the support of my mental strength.

I did my first cooking other than those in home economics and manage to come up with decent-looking with the help of seniors, Henry and Sont for her. =) At least she's appreciative of my effort.

Night cycling was indeed interesting. My groin aches like hell throughout the journey. The bike was not much better than the bike I had when I was young. The singlet's really cute, fitting and cooling. Initially, Virgil was the only group that was so obedient to adhere to the safety rule of wearing helmets. Throughout the journey, it was so tough riding only on the walking pavements. You would really need to be there to witness the craziness and the enhanced difficulty for that. I guess everyone would be better off riding on road. Seriously.

Our group IC was not all that bad except that there were some places that we literally were not following the route at all. Ha. Maybe for our group we can change the distance at the back to 42.195km instead. LOL. Our group was also one that's not the competitive but the fun-loving one. From the first group to set off, we ended up like 3rd or so. Along the way, we took numerous photos as though we were foreigners touring Singapore. Many of the wacky ones were suggested by Edwin mainly. This one on the left looks as though he's enlightened. LOL.

Henry's birthday is another happening event this December. Witnessed 7 wonders and Superman returns together. Ha... Luckily mine happened before I came to hall. I can't imagine being 'sabo-ed' in my own house in front of so many guests. Goodness! Melissa was very spontaneous for the forfeit though. Surprise!

I don't know why I still feel so down... What's wrong... Does having too many friends necessary equate to no good friends? Maybe someone ought to hit me on the head hard and tell me what the truth is.
