Fate to Meet

The world is just too small. Met a long lost friend at work place just now. Although we were not that close previously, he still remembers me. ha... Not tat bad. I was surprised to see him, not much changes, except older and slighty fatter. hee.. I get to know him during my radio days. haiz... that was long time ago.

He asked if i still know who Gary Tan was. Yes, my ex-colleague too. They were in the same unit during NS. ha... damnz... that was really long. I saw Gary a couple of weeks ago at Hua Yi Festival at Esplanade. He was invited to perform at one of the shows. Cool!

Earlier, Kenny called me up. ha... So coincidence! Well, he was my primary school mate. He told me one of our schoolmates got married recently. Wow! I remember that girl. We used to play catching and stuff on sat after ECA, now better known as CCA. ha... Those were the days. More than a decade?

Work was pretty ok. Think my break was long. I was a bit slow with work. Anyway, it's another test of endurance tom. haiz... Just endure for a day before another off day. Yep. Ren ren ren...

Family Togetherness

Spent quality time this afternoon with my love ones. I brought little Jordan to meet jun in Bugis. We wanted to go to Si Ma Lu to offer our prayers. Well, weather was hot so once we were out of the station, he wanted to go home. Whahaa...Took some time to coax him. Kids are kids, they love Mac! ha...

Ken came later too. 3 of us together with the little boy shopped ard. He was talking non stop and even cling to Jun and Ken. Initially, he was shy and kept hiding behind me. After some "ice-breaking" session, they became good friends. Funny.

Felt so family! It's something that i look forward in the near future. Ken said he would love to have his kids soon. ha.. I told him to buck up and find his partner soon. Raising a kid isnt easy, however, the fun and bond that bring the family together is satisfying. Alright, sounds like i will be a family man soon. whahaha!

Another off day for me tom! Yes! Will be heading down gym for some weights n cardio training. Been eating and pigging a lot lately after the trip to BKK. I think i shall proceed to Suntec Branch. Nice scenery and more spacious! I love off days.

Holiday Mood

Whoo... Got back from BKK last night. Stupid laptop make me retype everything all over again. damn... I think i am not used to typing on a laptop. Really waste my effot and time. Anyway, the trip to bkk was fun. Very relaxed and refreshed after the trip.

I spent most of the time idling. People were rushing for shopping, sightseeing. Me? whahah.... Sat in cafe, watched pple in Bangkok rushing ard, tanned at my hotel, swam, relax on a jacuzzi and club. This is wat i call life. Oh yes, went to Banyan Tree again this time. However, i was not on a proper dress code. whahaha

Initially, i tot the hoteliers will turn me away. Surprisingly, the offered me a coat and pants. whahaha.. I was in a tank top with a bermuda and a pair of slippers. Yes, typical singaporean. bleah. So this kind lady from the hotel offer me a coat, covered shoes and long pants. Cool!

Drank a bit and had a good chat with my travelling companions who are my colleagues. One of them was kind enough to treat us room service. The cheese beef burger was good. Fantastic. Went to Yaowarat too. This time, ate less. ha... cos i din go to the same restaurant that jun and me went last time.

Had my favourite kwai tiao. The queue is still very long. Ate roasted duck at Mk again. Credit to Jim who ordered the dish last time. Ever since, i am always thinking abt the roast duck. whahaha....

On the last night before returning to Singapore, went clubbing. Best! Never been to tat area previously. Ed told me tat area had lots of expatriates. He was right. The last time i went was RCA. Ed said the place has been renovated, he told me to check it out. Din go this time. Ended up at Sukumvit Soi Sip Et.

The entire stretch was like MS. But more ang mohs. Clubbed at 2 places, Bed supperclub and Q Bar. The latter was excellence. I understand that they intend to set another Q Bar here in Singapore. I guess it should be equally fun. The deco of Bed supperclub reminded me of MOS. whahha... The crowd were fabulous.

Finally back home. Now awaiting for the next trip at the end of the month. Bali. Hopefully, there wont be any changes. Looking fwd once again. March is a holiday month. Confirm! hahah... cheers!

N time to Bkk

It's the eve of Bkk trip. As usual, food is one of the priority when i reached there. Miss sticky mango rice, roadside kwai tiao, banana shake etc. I heard there were new places like Paragon. Ed told me to visit asok. There are things that i can look out over there.

Anyway, the trip was marred by some unexpected turn of event. My "wu xin" comment landed me into trouble. I was in disbelief. Been procrastinating the whiole night, sleep wasnt proper. My profound train of thoughts set in again. Maybe a dream is a dream. It is never easy to fulfill.

I asked myself am i not up to the standard? If not, why the uncertainty? I know it is not easy to get over many things. And i admit i am one of those too but my ideology is simple... Keep it Simple! After all, it is a test of endurance. Are my worries unfounded? I am not sure. Probably heaven knows.

On a lighter note, met up hao and gang for dinner after so many years. It has been a long time since the 3 musketeers met up. whahaha... We were very close since sec days. Hao mum even asked if i have forgotten abt her. She is like a mum to me too. Very nice and kind.

We talked abt careers and and everything. It brought me memories of the old school days. We used to meet every wkend, played the same game, visit each other. Things started to change after yup, an unexpected turn of events. We met up at hao's sister place. hmm.. nice condo. Wow.. if i were to own one of such unit, best! Can become Xin hao nan ren like Wang Xi! whoo....

Gonna pack up some stuff for the trip. Another tuition later. Bkk wait for me. Coming over in a couple of hours... Sawadee kup!

Siblings

Madness in the computer again. Keep downloading funny stuff w/o my permission. Sign of protest. I am not sure how long this will last. Been very irritated by this computer after it was attacked by spy ware. Nothing much can be done to improve the situation. Called the manufacturing company, no use. Try to reform, also no use. Dunno wat kind of virus is rite inside.

Was watching a TVB serial while having my late supper. 2 brothers in love with the same girl. I nearly choked on my food! In this story, there are 3 brothers. The eldest and the second bro are fighting over a same girl. aiyoh. Their youngest bro said it was too digusting. AND I AGREE!

I wonder if there are really such cases. Well, there might be. Like wat happened in the show, things will never be the same after the incident. Come to think of it, it is just too eeyah... Are the two brothers deprive of love? Fighting over a stupid girl n give up their brotherly relationship. wau lau eh... wat the hell!

But then again, this reminded me of something. Yar, a guy who loves his gf so much that he betrayed his friends. Pretty similar yet different. Friends are still friends. You can abandon this relationship but u can never do that to your bro. They share the same blood remember?

It is just too disheartening to know tat pple can turn evil becos of love. And i tot love was suppose to be sweet and innocent? How are siblings going to face each other in terms of situation like this? My mum said, "xiong di dou mei de zuo". So is it true that there shouldnt be siblings at all?

Bday @ Jiak Kim Street

Just ended the first day after turning ahem... Had a great time at Zouk tonight. The crowd was pretty good except for a few gays bouncing ard, kissing openly in public. Well, i have nothing against them but it's Zouk lor. If this happen to be any pubs along Tanjong Pagar i got nothing to say.

Dj was good. The music mix was one of the better ones. Down a bottle of corona which made my day. Best! While i scan thru the place, i realise the crowd seems pretty young. Argh... I told ken we are one of the seniors. Some may even be 10 years younger than us. Opps, did i reveal my age? Watever...

Gravitate ard as the music blast thru the nite. There were few pple who attempt to learn a few strokes from me, ken and gavin. Wa lau eh... damn paiseh. ha... They should learn from the Mambo Mentor aka lao de who always remain on the centre of the platform. Not me pls! The guy next to me was very good. So we managed to execute the spirit of retro. whahaha... bleah...

Back to work, stress level remain high. However, i am in holiday mood liao. So heck abt all the things tat went on in office. After the diasterous shift, felt so jie tuo once out of office. whahah... Anyway, need to sleep liao. My colleagues in the morning shift just started work and here i am still blogging. ha...

Celebrate Good Times

I cant believe it. The system hung on me. I have to rewrite my entire post. And this is my 20 plus plus birthday. My ailing computer played a trick on me. Argh... Making me retype everything all over again.

Anyway, i am feeling good cos its my BIRTHDAY! Happy Birthday to me! Shall remain at 25 from now on. whaahha.... Jun send me greetings on the strike of midnite. My colleagues and Kin Jun also sent me well wishes. I was pretty touch despite trying to keep a low profile on my bday.

Looking back, i have seen myself going through the most difficult moments in life. I managed to overcome all, probably most odds and felt better. Thanks to the support n encouragement given to me by everyone. U deserve a pat on the shoulder. I am pretty satsified with my life. Although things have not worsen, (neither did it improve), i am quite comfortable now.

March has been dedicated as a holiday month for me. Will be away to BKK for a short break next week. Yes, it's my N time to BKK. I intend to relaz and eat throughout the whole trip. At the end of the month, i will be heading to Bali. Yes, beach resort. The serenity, the blue sea... Oh, how i wish things will come quickly.

Ken "jio" me to Zouk tomolo. Yeah, it's mambo nite. I conceded to his request after recalling that it's my bday. whahaha... It will be a nite of celebration and joy. I understand he had also invited Gavin along. ha... I am going to down at least a bottle of Corona for sure. I dun mind if pple are going to buy me drinks. hahaha...

From Carlsberg
Celebrate good time, come on!
Huat ah
