Hate losing battles

Monday, October 16th, 2006

Just feel like bloggin right now, my emotions are just nagging at me to pen everything down before the mood fades away….

At every point of life, one is always goin to encounter some obstacles and it depends on how or what you do to remove it… desperation and frustration set in during the removal process but once you succeeded, the feelings are emotionally rewarding….and you look forward to the next challenge, armed with the confidence that you can do it again.

However, not every obstacles can be eliminated. They are there to stay or just simply you are not the chosen one to resolve it…in such times, you feel like you are fighting a losing battle….what should one do then? keep on fighting thinkin that eventually you gona break that barrier or jus…walk away….

Im not young anymore….i dun hv the vigour, persistence or energy as when im in my teenage years. Walking away is not my choice but it will have to be if theres no other option. Sometimes that takes much more courage than stayin on to fight…it should never be viewed as a cowardice action…

I jus dun have the strength to try anymore but at least i did!

29TH day of love and warmth

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

keke, blogging in the office again…

i got too many pending events to blog…..but too tired and lazy to do it….

Lets see (filtering through the memory space of my brain…)…ahhh, lets start with last friday then…the 29TH

I was on leave for the whole day but sadly my piglets aint…..so sometimes taking leave isnt that of a good thing.

Just to fast forward (wouldnt bore you with the details of the slow, agonizing hours of the day….) to the evening, the piggies club met up and we went to….SHIT, forgot the name (age is catching up with me ler)….the street opposite Paradiz centre…i tink…damn! Anyway we heard soooo much about the games cafe for YEARS and finally we decided to visit one of them…..so after a series of fortune telling, tarot cards, leaves reading, palm reading…..the signs r in the sky that we head to MINDS cafe…..

After a looong mazy walk, we finally found that one SMALL sign that reads MINDS cafe….but shiteric, it was fully packed! After cursing and swearing….batting mutiple eyelashes at the recep person…..NOPE….so we had to go to plan B! Plan B means anor series of ‘refer to prev paragraph’ and we decided on Pitstop.

The cafe decor was ‘clean’, nothing fanciful…simple furnishings and a whole lot of games which was quite frustrating at times coz we are paying by hour…yet choosing the game can take us about 10 mins each time! N the ever impatient me who was bored of playin the same game for the 2nd time will request (OK, demand….) for a change of game. In te end , i tink we played about 6 diff games within 2 hours!!

Verdict: Good activity to waste long hours but better off if you go to settlers or Minds coz there’s this impatient guy who works at Pitsop (supposedly to b one of the shareholders) apparently didnt know about the courtesy campaign that govt has been promoting for YEARS. He’s lousy at serving ppl, n i BET he’s the one who has been dragging S’pore’s ranking in terms of service standards down! Woah, did i sound abit harsh….nah! im the CUSTOMER.

Gratitude time…..

To P1: thanks for the endless time spending to keep me occupied during office hours and your motherly advice nv fails to keep me asleep….lol. Your adventurous spirit to try everything new just inspired me and makes me feel that life is too short to have regrets!

To P2: So glad everything is okay between us, welcome bk! Conversation is less intellectuat without you….lol…..your questions always managed to exasperate and crack me up at the same time!!

To P3: Stop and smell the flowers sometimes, not everything has to be in a rush…i know you wont listen to me, im just saying for the sake of it! =P

To P4: Been through some rough times, no guarantee there wun b anymore in the future, life’s not always sweet but the bitter can make us appreciate the gd moments more. Silence doesnt mean we dun care, just that we know that it is what you need most at the moment….

To RGP: The time you have been spending with us is getting more and more and you are like a family piglet to us now…lol…Glad you enjoy being with us, tink the feeling is mutual. The pig sty is always open for you…

To PiPi: thou far apart but we know we are tinkin of each other often…..jus keep in mind that im always here for you like i know you are for me. There isnt much i need to say here which you dun oredi know….and if there is, i prefer to say to you in person…til the day we meet=)

To Qi: Thanks for the gift, the color is very ME and the design if very YOU….so its like our tastes together in one piece….lol….smart gal! You have been through alot theses few months, i wish i had more time to be with you for those bad moments. But i know in my absence, ‘mindy’ will take gd care of you and im very happy tat you found someone you can rely on. Totally deserve the happiness that has elude you for the past years……

To Jess and Dap: Sori ah, must put together la, always tink of the other wen i tink of one….so glad we are still in touch after graduation….it has been a long wait but we finally made it out of terror sch! Though sometimes will miss the moments wen we tease each other during lectures and i’ll nv forget how Jess will fall aslp, pretending to hide her closing eyes behind her long fringe! Dap! you too, your life as i said represents a typical soap drama…..nv fail to surprise me wen i tot i cant be more shocked oredi…..keep up the gd ‘job’ you two!

To Heng: the person that i have been trying to ‘date’ for months!! someone with a schedule more packed than mine…..reservations require months ahead…sighzz. But the fact that you always rmbr my bday makes me touched, you are a person whom i can totally pour out my heart matters to, knowing that you wun judge me. N the only person i will allow to call me by the name i totally detest…..lol

To the anonymous, unnamed and rest: thanks for all your well-wishes, the day was made better by your messages.=)

To ALL: Love you!! (yea la, dun blive i aso cant help it….lol)

Me & You

Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006

I want you to b happy and more than ever i want to b the cause of it. If im not, then i shall not stand in your way. What you are feeling now is an unstoppable force, and thus i must move aside…

Excerpt from the movie ‘Imagine Me & You’…. (well more or less, for exact dialogue, pls go and watch the movie)

These words sound very moving, i was touched by the self sacrificing act of the guy when he said these her wife who is in love with a….woman…

However im not so generous with my love, in the same situation, i probably won’t be so gracious to my SO….like they say, love is selfish….all men look out for themselves….

The story is okay, actresses are beautiful, british accent too strong (sometimes i dun get what they are saying)…..wouldnt really recommend this movie but at least it wasnt another lame one….
