Friends...

Finally my Dera is back in Singapore, and can accompany me all day all night. Life was so boring when she just left. All I ever did while she was away for the first 2 months was eat, study, work, sleep, eat, study, work, sleep, work, study, work, sleep etc... There were times when I felt so lonely. When I was at home, my Dera was working, and when she was free, I was the one at work. Seriously mentally tired and I missed her even more. Life sux.

It was only after a while later when I got closer to the colleagues in Singapore Pools that my life start to get less boring. With the start of the Champion's League and La Liga, there were suddenly more matches and more job opportunities. Surely I wun miss on the chance to earn more money, so I was like working almost everyday. I thought I was crazy, however, I realised that there are other crazy ppl out there. After a while, I noticed that it was always the same group of ppl who worked at late nites. We got along better with one another and the bond between us got better with each passing day. We start to set up imaginary clubs...haha. For example, Metal club(iron man) for ppl who worked for at least 10 days in a row, 10 dollar club for ppl who get the $10 allowance regularly, Closing club for ppl who worked for 10 consecutive closing shifts, etc. Of cos u wun get any perks for being in the club, they are just some stupid titles. I belonged to all 3 of them, so u shd be able to tell how hardcore I am...haha.

Soon, we start to get together more often when there was no work(how rare). We start to organise birthday celebrations and mahjong sessions! We celebrated Chester's and Reese birthday at Waraku and Party World. Their birthday was actually in September, so it was some way back. The food was ok, nothing special, however, we found out something at the KTV. Reese can sing bloody well. All of us were impressed. We all seemed so mediocre... I think we boasted her morale.

We also went to Turf city for seafood in October to celebrate Eddie's birthday. We just collected our pay and were feeling rich, so we decided to order some "good" stuff. We had prawns, crabs, fish, oysters, clams and even lobster! A very sumptuous feast. While we were washing our hands in the washroom, Eddie sneakily went to foot the bill. All of us felt so bad. It was supposed to be our treat and he wun accept us paying him back. Damn, shd have ordered more expensive food... haha, just kidding.


Doesn't that makes u feel hungry??

Pey Shyuan and the lobster.....again...

I'm so thankful of all these friends who kept me company when I was feeling lonely. A big thank you to all u guys: James for being so lame and entertaining us during work, made time pass faster; Eddie for being such a wonderful guy and great host for mj; Chester for being my cab buddy when we need to share cab for all the various reasons; Reese for being so blonde and entertaining and dun worry, u'll find ur rite guy; Pey Shyuan for being a nice mj khaki. Well, there are definitely more names to mention, but I'll just name a few. Sorry I wun be "fighting fire" with u guys for the next few weeks, happy working and cya soon!!

Trying to find a way, getting better everyday, and I got you now I'm not alone. All I need in this life is one. One thing to believe in... (quoted from the song Speak of the devil by Sum 41)

20...

20 months has passed since we got together. Only 20? I was expecting more than that, perhaps it was because we spent almost everyday together before she left China. That also explains why everything feels weird while she was away. Suddenly I wasn't used to being alone. Whatever things that I do reminded me of her. She probably made up 90% of my memory space, cause I can remember even the smallest details abt her and whatever she said. All these small things are essentials to make her happy. Everytime I see her smile, tells me that my effort hasn't gone wasted.

Yesterday was the day which I've been planning for so long. Ever since I know that she'll be back to celebrate our anniversary together, I've been working hard to make sure that she'll remember the day. The long hours of brainstorming and shortlisting the possible presents, the long working hours to make sure I earn enough to purchase them, the long hours which I spent preparing the presents, the long hours I spent to come up with a good presentation and delivery, the long hours I spent hidding the "secrets" from her when I've been dying to show her what I've gotten her. That was definitely a long long wait...

No. 1. I remember that day when my dera's bracelet broke. She looked very sad and told me that it was a gift from her dad. While she was sleeping, I sneakily tried to fix back for her and put it on again. I still remember the smile on her face when she woke up. After that she stopped wearing it again as the the links became loose again. Mission one, I'll love to see that smile again. I went to many places to see, from Sookee, Goldheart, Brilliant Rose, Tian Po, etc. She loves "bling bling", so I was looking for one with diamonds. However, the designs with diamonds which fit my budget is really quite limited, and they are quite different from the previous one that my dera had. I was getting really frustrated, until I saw one at Tian Po, the "ding ding dong dong" reminded me of her old bracelet. I found it.


No. 2. Everytime I went to a pet shop with her, She'll look at the doggies in the window. She have always wanted a Chihuahua. I've wanted to get her one, however, there are a few problems: 1. budget, 2. she wun have time since she's leaving for Spain soon, 3. her hammies are still alive and kicking. 4. budget, 5. budget, 6. STILL BUDGET. Therefore, since I can't get her a real one, I get her a fake one. Interestingly, this is only the second time I got her a soft toy, the first one was a koala bear which she carries with her even to China =).



No. 3. The folding of the stars left the greatest impression on me. That was a very old school act, but I know my dera likes stars, and that's why I decorated her hostel room with stars and promised to watch the stars with her when she's back. The packaging of the folding stripes said: train patience, perseverance, determination. OMG, I almost laughed when I saw that. I'm SO sure that people fold stars for those purposes la. Anyway I am a patient man, so this can't kill me. I wanted to wish her good luck, so I folded 777 stars for her all by myself (lucky 7 ya?). Took me quite a while to finish them, I even have to bring to my workspace to fold, if not I can't finish in time. And once again, my mum complained that I never fold any for her, hohohohoho (I'll fold her moon next time, much easier, roll into a ball will do). Very stressed, everytime I do something for her, my mum saw already she also want. =X


No. 4. During June while I was shopping for present for my brother, we went shopping at Takashimaya. I remembered that she was looking at the perfume section. She wanted a Chanel no. 5 fragrance. In the end she din buy it as she thought it was too expensive. So I went shopping for a perfume for her. I was going to get her a Chanel, but when I came across DKNY, I stopped. Two different kind of scent, but one is sweeter. I changed my mind.



No 5. We went to do what we enjoy doing: KTV, movie, food and sleep!! All in a day! However, things are really not as good as expected. K lunch was over rated. The food was bloody cold. I ate the food thinking that it will keep me warm, however, after I ate the veggies, I felt even more cold!! Bloody cold, within half an hour, my hot tea turned into ice tea. The food wasn't fantastic and they seriously need to heat them up before serving customers. No more K lunch for me. We had durian puff for snacks after that. It was nice, after eating that I actually wanted to eat more durians. Shall bring my dera to eat durians one of these days! Next stop, Beowulf. Actually the movie was not bad, plenty of action, a few funny lines and good visual effects, perhaps I expected too much from the movie, it seemed kinda boring to me. I felt that if it wasn't so animated, it could have been better. I just hope my dera wasn't bored by the film. As it was still early after the movie, we went to my house to chill. We had a nice chat and ate dinner before my dera fall asleep in my arms. It felt like yesterday, like the days back in Hall 3. I really miss those days. While sleeping, she looked the same, the small little gal who likes to cuddle in my arms, just like the good old days before she left Singapore. I'm so glad she's back.

I certainly enjoyed myself, it has been a while. I hope she's happy too. And I hope she likes the presents.

I love you.

只要看你一眼一瞬间
哪怕是最后画面
我的世界
因为爱过而完美
谁都不该离太远
只要看你一眼一瞬间
足够我熬过千年
我不后悔
爱若让末日提前
我们要一起
好好迎接那句点
(quoted from the song 一眼瞬间 by 张惠妹 & 萧敬腾)

A mystery...

Another sleepless night,
The mystery is still left unsolved.
There wasn't many clues,
but the telling signs are clear.
It wasn't as easy as it seems.
Perhaps I've been paranoid,
But my sixth sense tells me that something is wrong.
Apparently, everything seems fine,
Until the secondary investigations.
There are many loopholes that were overlooked.
Was it a scheme by the mastermind to hide something?
I'm confused...
Althought it has been documented,
but I believe the crime isn't solved yet.
It felt like I've been dealed a low blow,
Fallen deep into the setter's trap.
Should I carry on with this investigation?
Or should I just let it rest?
Ignorance is blissed,
But this unrest is killing me.
I want to get to the bottom of this,
For there is more than meets the eye.
I hope I'm wrong.

Happy 20th month anniversary dera.
I love you.

还来不及仔仔细细写下你的关于
描述我如何爱你
你却微笑的离我而去
这感觉已经不对我努力在挽回
一些些应该体贴的感觉我没给
你嘟嘴许的愿望很卑微在妥协
是我忽略你不过要人陪
这感觉已经不对我最后才了解
一页页不忍翻阅的情节你好累
你默背为我掉过几次泪多憔悴
而我心碎你受罪你的美
我不配
(quoted from the song 我不配 by 周杰伦)

The one that matters most...

Finally got my pay for last month last Friday. As expected, it was quite good, considering the hours i spent working for the past few weeks. Suddenly I felt more secure. Hmm... seems like money does wonders...haha.

There are so many things which I wanted to buy... a new pair of sneakers, new handphone, camara, clothes, and not forgetting my PS3!!! However, I realised that i dun really need all these things. What I have is already quite sufficient. Seriously, I dun really feel like spending on these items anymore now that I have the capacity. I'll rather spend them with my family or gf, cause the satisfaction and happiness that comes along will amplify this way than me spending the money on myself. It seems like I never worry about my money whenever I spend on my gf or family, but i feel the pinch when I spend on myself...ouch! Maybe I'm becoming more mature.

Or maybe it is just because I miss her too much, dying for her to come back soon.

我可以陪你去看星星
不用再多说明
我就要和你在一起
我不想又再一次和你分离
我多么想每一次的美丽
是因为你
(quoted from the song 我可以 by 蔡昮佑)
