Bad Hair = Bad Day

Went for a haircut yesterday. Didn't like it. Poor hairdresser was trying to figure my hair out. Its not easy to cut my hair as the left side grows towards the right and the right side grows towards the left ending up in crisscrosses. Hate hair cuts coz you're stuck there under the mercy of the hair dresser and u can't run away till its complete.

The hair cut was bad enough. And my friend's continuous comments and mockery only added to my irateness. Felt trapped and insulted... totally spoilt my day...

Laughter at the expense of another's suffering will never bring true joy to the heart...

Save me from the shadow

I walk in the silent forest, and look up to the trees,
The gentle giants standing, and swaying in the breeze.
I searched for a beam of light, that which i can't live without,
But all I see are shadows, the canopies keeping it out.
How long have I been wandering, in this darkness all alone,
Life seems to be at a standstill, yet Death never condones.
I feel the light fading, from my eyes and from my soul,
Every second is escaping, Time never stops it's flow.
I need to find an opening, to see the great bright sky,
To let the eye of heaven, bless me with its light.
To wash the shadows of the past, and awaken the spirit within,
And remind me of the reasons that led me so deep in.
Into the darkened forest where my journey first began,
Its time for me to wake up from this ever dreamy land.
I called out into the darkness, and listened for an answer,
I hear the bounds of echoes, leading to different corners.
I close my eyes and listen, to hear the many hellos,
And try to pick the right one, that will save me from the shadows....

Life should be like this



Met up with my mom, Fel and Anne to watch Avatar again. Even though its our second time watching it, Pandora still fills us up with Awe... Jovan was supposed to join but couldn't get up in time. After the movie, mom went back and the rest of us went to get our pets to bring them to the stable gallops at pasir ris to feed ponies and walk our dogs. We borrowed Fel's dad's car - a seven seater and all the humans, dogs and cat squeezed into one car.

Went to the dog farm as well and to my dad's farm at night before dropping the pets off at Jovan's place while we headed to Changi Village for supper.

Travelling together like this just felt like a road trip. The best we can do in Singapore I guess. Its been a fun day!

Great End, Great Beginnings

The year 2009 ended with a string of parties, and so did the year 2010 begin with a string of parties.


31st Dec 09: New Years Eve, went to the Night Safari with Felicia and Aneurin, then we went to Nee Soon for the count down and met Weyman there. Then went to Beauty World for supper and Jovan came to join us, and then went to Adrian's house and I got to play the Wii and Guitar Hero for the first time! Been about a decade since i touch games of this kind. Finally sent Fel and Ann home at about 6am before heading to the Temple for the Offerings to a hunderd sanghas Ceremony. I think this is the busiest NYE i ever had, traveling halfway across Singapore and back... Lolz. But its also one of the best!


1st Jan 10: New Years Day: I had 100 small packets of rice ready for the offering ceremony and as the monks walked by with their bowls, I would drop a packet in. And every now and then a familiar face pops up with that surprised look to see me in the line giving the offerings. Lolz. It was not just an offering of rice, but of friendship and smiles =)

2nd Jan 10: Went partying with a group of friends, club hopping to 3 different clubs, then supper finally at 4am before getting home at 5am.


3rd Jan 10: Brunch at Mimolette with Jovan, Julius and Gary before heading over to Mei Qi's Yacht Party at Sentosa Cove! I was the unofficial photographer for the event and with the band playing on the top deck, the sound of waves in the background and the sounds of laughter from great company, it was the perfect combo! Really enjoyed this party!



5th Jan 10: Lunch with Jennifer and Dad at Annalakshmi. Great Ambiance, great food, and what's best is that the restaurant is a pay whatever amount you like restaurant. You decide how much the bill comes up to.
