love - in reminiscence

and this was something i wrote on this very blog 5 yrs back.

Love
Sunday, August 01, 2004 // 2:49 PM
How do you know when the person you're in love with is the true love of your life? I always believe in a person's lifetime, he or she will meet this other person, this person whom he is destined to be with...and when this person appears, you will know. You just know, deep in your heart. It's true. I have seen many examples around me. But sometimes people break up. Sometimes you meet the right person at the wrong time, sometimes you meet the wrong person at the right time...

isnt it sad that marriage and love arent always synonymous? marriage is about meeting the right person at the right time. as for love, it has no limitations as to where or when or how you would meet that special someone.

it seems that at the age of 19, i have already grasped this basic concept.
am 1/4 into the book NEW moon now and i'm still waiting for the action to begin. it's such a whinny book, i have no idea why people said it's good!

anyway, just read some totally horrendous reviews on new moon, the movie. think i've second thoughts whether i want to watch it.
i'm so glad i'm on off tomorrow!

although i must admit, i havent been working as hard for this show as i did previously. without really meaning to, i have taken a step back and taken a huge chill pill. not that i've been particularly useful before, but at least i had made an effort to be actively involved.

oh well, my excuse being the additional job scopes assigned to me. you take some and you give some right?

afterall, i'll be going KL on friday and experiencing the same things all over again!!

this weekend, i
1. shopped for wii
2. played wii and bought wii guns and more games
3. successfully organised bf's semi-surprise bday dinner
4. worked
5. took the train from changi airport to expo so as to avoid the jam and long queues at expo
6. clubbed at zouk where i havent been to for at least 6 months.
7. drank long island tea and flaming lambo - both which i havent touched for at least 1 yr odd.
8. got a really bad hangover at work the next day.
9. clubbed at dragonfly/boiler/lobby with colleagues
10. contemplated buying a netbook

NOV is gonneee...DEC will be a happy happy month with xmas just around the corner...

freeze the brains

suddenly feel the urge to take a month off, and fly fly fly away. to anywhere will do. to rome where you're literally stepping on hundreds and thousands years of history to cambodia where we once climbed the steep steps of angkor wat (which according to alex, has already eroded by now and is closed off to the public), to vegas where we were staying at golden nugget hotel and playing with the water tunnel, to new york where i was happily eating pinkberry (saw this yogurt place at iluma that appears exactly like pinkberry except for the name, shall go and try it one of these days), to mauritius where there was only the sun the sea the sand and me...

i'm going korea in dec - the land of the frozen. did i mention how much i hated feeling and looking like a dumpling the last time i went to korea, because of all the thick clothing we have to pile on?

but perhaps, just for the sake of a change in environment and lifestyle, it's good to freeze my brains out.

i had a good weekend meeting up with old friends. the pa 7 groupie on friday night, where fengyi handed out her wedding cards to us. also found out that X and her bf have broken up, just when they were about to apply for a flat (this procedure comes before marriage these days). the guy's mum told them they can only get married at 30, otherwise they will get divorced. honestly!? who still believe in such things these days? X is my age, 24.

that wasnt the worst. the guy agreed and did not stood by her. we agreed that she is better off without him. better to end it off now when they're both still young than to wait till she is 30 to realise they're not meant to be.

also met up with the rgs girls on sunday. rachel is going to be a mother and she looks wonderful! done deal, she said. no more partying and late nights, but hey, we all got to move on one day. and looking at the number of people around me tying the knot, it shouldnt be too long before we all move on.

A, B and D

so tired. it's only monday, and i know i should be feeling refreshed. but neh, i'm not.

i feel so sian.

last week was madness. i was so busy i was like a tornado moving from meeting to meeting, trying to resolve one issue after another. i literally had no time to pause and take a breather. on one hand it does feel good to be so pseudo-productive; on the other hand, you just kind of get lost in it all.

i try so hard to juggle A, B and D but these days, it's starting to occur to me that i will be better off abandoning A and just concentrating on B and D.
