Happy New Year in advance everyone!
imagine in three months time we wont be able to see each other much anymore...will u all still visit my blog?or will it become totally silent?i know i'll def visit urs to find out wat's going on in ur lives...it would be great to know of ur new jobs...projects n stuff like tat...as for me i feel like taking a break after i graduate...maybe try something totally media unrelated...like retail or something...it seems like the only time i was working happily was in a shop...so don be surprised if six months down the road u walk into a shop n find me serving u...my only worry is tat i may like it to much to go back to media...oh well we'll see how things goes as it comes...
2005 also marks the 10th year aniversary of frenship between me...weiling...yingchao n yanmei...can u imagine 10 years??i couldnt believe it when i started calculating n discovered tat 10 years had passed already...i am so lucky to have those gals to grow up with together...it has been an amazing journey n they were with me every step of the way...i love those babes...everytime my world threatens to spin out of control...they manage to pull me back...i'm thinking of doing something special to mark this special year...we don have much time for each other anymore n this would be a great chance...maybe a holiday together or at least s nice dinner

hi all how was ur christmas?i've had fun...eating loads of goodies...esp my favourite honey baked ham...if i could i'll finish the whole thing hehe...i even got a little mahjong tuition...mind teaser siah tat game...the only sucky thing was tat i didnt even receive a single pressie this yr...not even boxes of weird chocolates like the previous yrs...all i got was a odd looking chocolate santa from an aunt n a nice handmade bookmark from a cuz...damn i was even wishing for box after box of weird chocolate...at least i would have something to open n could for one moment while holding it before i open it to hope tat i might have something remotely interesting...i miss receiving n opening brightly wrapped gifts...nobody buys me presents anymore...sobz
my bro juz discovered tat he has the chicken pox...i'm the only sibling who hasnt cught it yet so i muz be careful...though i don mind the two weeks off...i cant exactly select when i catch it...n if i shld get it this week i'll miss the new year's eve celebrations...so now i'm super paranoid

where are you christmas?
i feel empty...christmas is a week away n i feel nothing...none of the anticipation or happiness or tat warm fuzzy feeling...not even the best of christmas carols made me feel christmassy...i had this cassette tape of disney christmas carols when i was a kid back in those days where we only had tapes...i still remember how it looked like...it was white in color...n the color had all ths disney cartoon characters crammed on it like a family portrait...i loved tat tape...i remember playing it whenever i felt the urge to...nevermind tat it was in the middle of june n christmas was nowhere in sight...i would put in the player n curl up in front of it n juz listen while staring at the ceiling n all these beautiful feelings will wash over me...feelings i cant describe...very powerful but unexplainable...i remember during one of my weird urges to listen to the tape...the postman came by...heard wat i was playing n couldnt help commenting to my mom tat we were in the wrong season...my mom juz said i was crazy to play christmas carols in june but i didnt even bother to explain to her y...it juz made me feel warm n fuzzy...n better...sadly christmas doesnt do tat for me anymore...it seems like no one wants to celebrate...everyone seems tired n bored...
it has been ages since i last went down to the river but somehow i don think i want to though its my fav quiet spot...i think the emptiness gnaws at me more if i go there to think...when i have the money...i wanna go someplace where i can really feel christmas...like the way they describe it in carols...where there's snow n christmas trees n snowmen n log fires n goodwill...ppl laden with presents n sleigh rides n laughter...
n love

show the ones you love you care
ppl seriously don tell the ones they love n care abt how much they mean to them often enuff...do u really think they will know if u nvr ever mention it to them?or even if u did...when was the last time u did tat?
my nick recently was this lyric i chanced upon in an ad for evanescene's new song 'missing'...which went:'isnt anyone missing me?'the biggest response i had was from amin...which made me laugh simply becos it was so spontaneous n sweet of him...i nvr meant it to be an accusatory qn at any of my frenz or am trying to say tat everyone is not giving me enuff attention...i was nvr fond of overly gushing affection unless it truly came from the heart...but honestly everyone needed to know once in a while tat the ppl around them do care...i myself have been guilty of forgetting some of the impt ppl in my life juz becos i lost touch...so i keep working on letting them know how precious each one of them is to me...
a hug...a hello...a min to listen...a cup of coffee...an hr to juz chill n hang out...anything...as long as u let them know

life's simple luxuries...
waking up to a room flooded with sunlight...feeling rested...snuggling down in ur blanket against the brisk morning cold...savoring a few more minutes in bed...getting out of bed with the blanket still wrapped around u...plodding out to read the newspapers...washing up...grabbing a little breakfast n sitting by the window...watching the street below...
in mid morning no one's rushing for work...most of them r going for a nicer reason...lunch with frenz...shopping...n there'll be kids racing along with the pavements as their F1 tracks or super moms who'll have kids...oversized sch bags N the morning's groceries balanced on one bike...an elderly couple strolling...joggers taking advantage of the fresh air...all these against the colorful facade of the blk opp mine...my estate is going thru a renovation so it feels like new n everything's so colorful...
u have no idea how immensely therapeutic this is...every one shld take a couple of mins each day to juz look at ur neighbourhood...perhaps this world will be a little nicer...

starting over
i'm trying to learn to be strong again
i'm trying to regain some self confidence
i'm trying to start to believe in myself again
i'm trying to look for the bright spark in my darkest hours
i'm trying...if u do care will u give me a hand?

The Prayer
I pray you'll be our eyes, and watch us where we go,
And help us to be wise, in times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer, as we go our way
Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe...
La luce che tu dai
I pray we'll find your light
Nel cuore resterà
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarci che
When stars go out each night
L'eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'è
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Sognamo un mondo senza più violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno di la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternità
La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E' il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amor
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a sé
Another soul to love
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child
Needs to find a place, guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
E' la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salverà

the tv in my living room juz went on the blink...n its only a yr n a half old...lousy...so big but couldnt even last...had to go into my parents room for our daily dosage of mind rot...thk god their bed is king size or it would nvr fit all of us...kind of fun n cosy actually...only downside is we get thrown out of the room at 1030 n now i'm faced with the whole night of no entertainment...juz when i've finished all the books i borrowed from the library n discovered tat they r showing 'whose line is it anyway?' tonite...damn
my sis bought this small lego thingy from the star wars range tat she was assembling for her bf...it was all i could do to restrain myself from assembling it all for her...i love lego...i've always wanted to get one of those huge castle sets...complete with dungeons n soldiers n horses n carts n everything...they r so much fun...one of the many things i wanna get if i have loads of money...bloody thing is so small but costs a whooping arm n leg...i think they fix the price according to a scale of 1mm=$1...tsk conglomerates

my cousin julia popped by yesterday n stayed over cos she wanted some help with a powerpoint invitation for her workplace...she went on this fanatical artistic spree...trying to make her presentation as kickass as possible...i was beside her the whole night trying to give constructive advice n reassure her tat it looks great...but only she can spend 3 hrs on a 2 slide christmas party invitation juz becos she wanted ppl to be wowed by it...
so i was there desperately keeping myself awake while this conversation repeated at least ten times during the night...
Ju:eh angel wat do u think?does it look ok?should i change this part?
me:it looks ok...maybe u try bringing this lower so it looks the same as the others.
Ju:ok...how does it look now?better?should i add more stuff?
me:no this looks gd enuff...simple...clear n very christmassy..
Ju:are you sure??i want people to be wowed by it leh!!ok i'll start the slideshow for u to see (peers anxiously at my face)
how??how??u're not wowed!!!
me:Julez!its 2am in the morning!!its kinda hard for me to be wowed when i'm trying to stay awake!!it looks great now can we go to bed??
only my beloved cuz could make me tahan such perfectionism at 2 am in the morning...haiz...
n silly me had to remind her abt the horror bonanza 'shutter' which she saw earlier tat evening as we were bunking down for bed which made her jump into mine so fast i could barely escape being squashed...but it was nice...reminded me of all those times she stayed over at my place when we were kids n we used to share the same bed...chatting long into the night...well not tat long cos we could hardly stay up past midnight when we were kids...n snuggling under numerous blankets n pillows n bolsters which will all end up on the floor the next morning...
cant wait to have her over for a 'friends' marathon...tat would be loads of fun...

was inspired by my former JC lecturer's journal lately to write some entries tat make sense instead of my usual babble about how bored i am or how stressed life is...i'm waiting to see how long i could keep this up til i slip back to my usual psycho-babble...
today's been weird...once again i'm feeling something i cant describe...i spent the whole day on my sofa...reading all sorts of stuff...newspapers...comics n today being weds my ever present 8 days...i was literally stuck on m sofa reading...munching...n dozing off...perfect as it may sound n though it was wat i really wanted...i was filled with a strange gloom not unlike the dimming light spreading across my living room...they say twillight is a lonely time...i have to agree...i was filled with a weird sadness n i felt my old fear creeping up on me again...which was really silly...its just the reshoot looming in the near future...its like a nightmare tat wasnt over n i'm afraid to go to sleep becos of it...i'm yet to be fully free of my nightmare but i know i have to face it...
i think one of the reasons for my crazy change of mood(besides hormones)was the quietness in my house today...only me n my mom...i miss my sis...she's staying over at her bf's place n i wish she was here instead...even though she'll be bz studying n i'm not allowed to disturb her...at least she's here...its the usual funny relationship amongst siblings...when she's here i could find a million things to yell at her for but when she's away for juz one night i start to miss her already...i count myself very lucky...growing up my siblings were more like my best frenz than siblings...we played...fought n hung out together...it was so great having ur best frenz with u all the time...the countless games n adventures we had...i miss them
i cant wait til she finishes her exams so tat we can rot on the sofa together...hey sis gambette!!

one very simple rule of common sense...if u have been dancing behind or beside a girl for some time n r trying to get her to dance n she doesnt respond to u...get the hint n move away somewhere else pls?it's not us girls being snobbish but we know wats on ur minds n since u don even respect us tat way don blame us for snubbing u..
on a better note it was still fun...dancing always is...but somehow it alwasy sux the second time u go to a certain club...the first time there's always the best...i think we need to find a new one to go to each time...i wanna go to madam wong's...went there for sam's shoot on thurs...very interesting decor n if the music they played for the shoot is wat they usually play i'm so going there...prob is nikky they all arent 21...no one to go with me...
we were so shagged dancing so much consecutively it was a miracle we could still do a bbq...we started at around 9 plus...10 pm so it was more like supper...yummy n fun...it was back to the beach on fri morning n now i'm completely shagged...still have to wake up early tomolo morning to help my mom sell uniforms...urgh..
think u guys r bored of seeing pics of us in either bikinis or party gear so will not bother putting them up...

i was walking around taka yesterday...passing the time when i heard christmas carols twinkling faintly in the bg...i looked around me carefully for once n i discovered all the festive decorations festooned all over the place n it juz struck me tat christmas isnt too far off...juz over a month n a half away which in shopping mall terms equal next week...it completely slipped my mind tat its the end of the year already...the festive season of christmas...new year etc is fast approaching...its the time for celebration n fun n cheer...or is it??perhaps my entire being is still too tired to really absorb the atmosphere...perhaps its becos my specs isnt really over yet...i still have a meeting tomolo n processing n telecine to complete n another day of shooting to make up for the rainy days...then maybe finally i can be left alone to have some fun...to rest...to slack n to juz hide away from the world...filling it only with some solitude...family...n some hangout time with frenz...it is not in my nature to yell "go away!!" cos i still have some work left to do but believe me i so feel like doing tat...
so unless u r looking for me to hang out or to have some fun or with anything else but specs...can u please leave me alone??

hi all...
is she gonna gripe abt specs again??yes i am...a little..
god not again?how much more longer is she gonna go on abt this??
i myself find it remarkable tat one project could have such a tight stranglehold on our lives...totally controlling our emotions n sanity..
its no big deal...its juz one project...there r other bigger problems in the world..
i agree but isnt problems n their magnitude subjective?wat is a big deal to some is nothing to others n while wat a small problem is to others is a big one to others..
like to some who have to worry about their next meal n a roof over their heads they can take my specs on anyday n complete it gladly...to the person who have a deadly disease robbing thier lives...they would wish they had the time to take on projects...the measurement of ur prob is highly subjective to how much u can handle n the presence of other shit in ur life..
all i know now is tat i'm not the only one tearing their hair out over specs of final yr projects...i know of lots in my sch n outside who r wishing with all their heart they can get it over n done with n be rid of it...few seems happy doing their final yr projects...they seem to be stuck in a whirlpool they cant escape while demons of all sorts race around them threatening to take away any sanity they have left
but even in the deepest whirlpools theres always a vortex where u can see the sky n light...look around to the family n frenz around u...they r the ones holding u steady in the whirlpool...
we r in this together n the toughest part will be over soon
take my hand n don let go...

yesterday nite was a long standing plan to celebrate sam's birthday n to cheer her up cos she'll be lonely w/o her bf...we got her this adorable gorilla soft toy n printed a t-shirt with her bf's name on it...so tat she could hug it while he's away...hahaha...
it was fun...though the music was terrible at first n took a long time to warm up n ended way too early...the place was nice n we had a comfy sitting area...there were a lot of weird ppl there...esp weird guys n it was all the guys in our grp could do to shoo them away when they stuck like flies...esp poor ryan...he was kept bz shielding me n viv...i juz ignored all of them n danced with viv the whole nite...so much so tat someone asked sam if viv was les!!hahahaha!
headed for supper when the party ended n then to our hotel room where we caught some much needed zzzz...
the stupid flash so blinding!!
complimentary champagne for the birthday girl...which tasted a little funny

great movies
for those who havent seen the choir boys yet go see it...its a muz see...fantastic movie...the music was so beautiful...i cried when jean baptiste sang...he has this amazing voice...literally from the heavens...it was so moving...at first i tot it was juz me n my emo crazy stuff but i heard a lot more sniffling around me n realised i wasnt the only one crying...i wanna get the soundtrack...truly singing tat will reach deep into ur heart...
straight out of one theatre into another to watch sepet...i was curious as to how gd it was...it was enjoyable n really funny at times...its strength is tat it did not follow the usual love story plotline...where u could guess wat came next...u couldnt...its weakness...the love story was clouded over by its colorful supporting characters...but still it was very touching...nvr watched two movies in one go n nvr cried consecutively either...
writing poetry was like writting letters to god...it was like saying all you wanted to say to someone you couldnt see...then god replied to me with you...you were my poetry from god...

happy birthday to me
Gone are the days where you wait in anticipation
Gone are the days where it is a celebration
Gone are the brightly wrapped gifts
Gone is the loving kiss
Gone are the days when it seems so special
Gone are the things that simply made it magical
A birthday is just a birthday...

every year when my parents n frenz ask me wat i want for my birthday...
i always pause for a while before answering...every year for as long as i can remember...w/o fail...
its not becos i dont know wat i want...i do know...every yr it doesnt change...there's only one thing i want more than anything else in the world...prob is i cant name it...so i always take a min to remember sadly wat i so badly desire but cant voice n name some other trival little thing for my loved ones to get me...
becos wat i truly want...my birthday wish every single yr...is something my parents n frenz can nvr give me...it is something tat no amt of money or power could obtain...it is something tat i cannot describe w/o sounding like some desparado...but no matter wat it makes me sound like...its still my heartfelt desire...
only god could grant it to me but unfortunately He cant seem to hear me...

when most ppl witness a gorgeous sight...be it a lovely sunset or a beautiful landscape filled with crystal clear water n lush greenery...most will stare at it...marvelling at its beauty...trying to absorb it all in...n the reflex action is almost always a strong desire to reach out with ur hand n touch the scene before u...half ecpecting to come in contact with a flat surface...with the ever present notion tat the beauty before is too beautiful to be true...n ur comment to ur companion will almost always be "wow this is so pretty...it looks like one of those computer graphics thing or digital images"
when confronted with a vision of visual perfection y do we always have the notion tat its too good to be real n it would be man-made instead??since when have man been the creator of perfection?i myself have been guilty of the above scenario plenty of times n i find it disconcerting...this kind of mentality is worrying...
