ok, sad. just finished watching the last episode of The Little Nyonya on mobtv. it wasn't a very nice final episode, just like how The Mum had guessed. quote The Mum "TCS pattern always like that one, at first the whole show very very nice.. then the final episode they always luan luan lai.. sian..."

if only everyday is like today...

today was a wonderful day because...

i turned up for work in shorts and slippers...

wasn't busy at all and let's just say, i had some time on my hands to do my "personal" stuff whilst at work, heh...

awesome lunch at Teochew Braised Duck stall near office, minus the CBD crowd

The Dad waited to fetch me home after work.. i consider it a LUXURY

afternoon nap from 5pm - 8pm (woke up with saliva on pillow)

just thought i'll ask if LL wants dinner, and we ate at my favourite Teochew porridge stall

randomly picked up the phone and called GW to ask if she wants to meet as well, it turns out that GW is with CF???

and suddenly there were 4 of us (secondary school pals) sitting together, totally unplanned!

next moment.. we were in a KTV lounge, and me back in CBD area in shorts and slippers again!

it's awesome, eveything was unplanned, impromptu, everyone said yes after one phone call... and this is called, friendship...

once you pop you can't stop

10am in office...

colleague: eh do you think i can tell the client this??
me: get permission from your zhor zhor first
colleague: died laughing


1pm in pantry...

me: hey so what do you want to eat for lunch?
colleague: babi ponteh
me: died laughing

130pm lunch time in coffeeshop...

drinks auntie: what drink you wan?
me: longan tea please
colleague: died laughing

430 pm in office...

colleague: walau this client is #$%^&! i feel like....
me: pushing her down a well???
me and colleague: both died laughing

okie... more and more of us are into The Little Nyonya now and this is awesome!!! wootz!

The Little Nyonya, mob-tv and my life...

recently back at mob-tv again because i'm super addicted to The Little Nyonya!!! i really really like to watch this, it's like the Peranakan version of Da Chang Jin!

me watching tv is like me living my life. i'm always dying to find out what's going to happen next yet at the same time for every episode i finish..it's one episode nearer to the end. sometimes i wish i get a sneak preview of my life before everyone else. then again, what if i realise that the development of the story is not something i had wished for? not every drama comes with a happy ending... you get interrupted every now and then by the advertisements, some are annoying and some are a pleasure to meet, i guess this is just like the different kinds of people you meet in life??

if only i get to rewind, go back in time to change certain decisions i made. if only i get to replay happy moments again and again. wouldn't it be awesome if i can skip track when at the unhappy parts. defintely helpful if i could pause at the crucial point of my life so that i get to think and plan carefully what to do or say...

as they always say 人生如戏 。 戏如人生。i think it's very well said.

is it really too bad?

today i received an SMS from an old TKD teammate. she's currently a sports trainer covering the AS-EAN University Games in Malaysia now. she's at the TKD event and was telling me about the many familiar face who were our previous opponents have now become coaches.

when asked if Singapore team won anything? her reply came like this:

"Other country's standard is way too high for Sin. But if you come you can win something"

at times like this, i feel both happy and sad. happy to know i'm still highly regarded in this sports scene and i felt really flattered. at the same time i still feel the resentment of having to leave the team without really much choice. seriously, why? why did i bow down to politics? would things have been different if i stayed determined and perservered to chase my dreams? too bad, my time is over...

but the friend's next SMS also touched my heart:

"Yes. It's too bad.. (you had to leave) But we can always be involved in other ways."

well said.
