F.S.C

Had one of the most enjoyable dinner with 3 pretty ladies on Friday. Settled for Genki Sushi at Marina Square where the food portion were really huge. After a tiring week, it's good to have the company of 3 ladies (F, S & C) by my side which seem to recharge all the energy used up during the week...haha!!
In the past, I had thought that having a car will allow me to go back home later on fri/sat nite. Nowadays, I realized that I will arrive later than the rest on Friday usually ard 8pm. Parking is a issue plus I can only drive after 7pm. At the same time, the leaving hours is much earlier compared to the past. The concentration level need to be focus plus I'm not familiar with the routes yet.
Anyway, after dinner, the 4 of us proceed to Esplandage for a short stroll before walking to Pan Pacific for a drink. In all my visit to the Atrium, this is the first time where I ordered Earl Grey while the rest of the gals had either liquor or beer. The 3 gals looked at me as if I am a weirdo or simply out of my mind. Imagine a idiot coming to a bar to order tea while the ladies with him are drinking beer or liquor. What to do since I'm the D.D for the night? The atmosphere was excellent and it seem like the good old days to me.
The car had finally fulfilled it true purpose and I'm sure love my car.....:)

Generation Gaps

Attended my Uncle's wake in Malaysia during the weekend. Lots of crowd and lots of relatives which I had never seen/recognise before. Times flies and I'm back at the same place for the same activity once again. Before a student, now a worker.

All the kids had grown up which made me felt much older than usual. Got a big shock when one of the niece called me "Uncle". Although I know my status is quite "high", this is definitely the first time when a 16 plus teenager addressed me so formally. OMG!! Almost fall off my chair.

Anyway, quite amused when a tiny little issue can caused such a big "Hoo-ah" in Malaysia. Though not my problem, but nevertherless amazed at how narrow-minded some folks can be. Just like a drowning person trying to drag others along with them. If given a choice, I will just kick the person and left it to them to struggle themselves.

Life is unpredictable and we should left no room for regret. Better treasure every moments of our lives and enjoy it to the fullest.

Choice-less

Met up with the rest at Bugis yesterday nite. The same old people, the same old topics, the same old struggles, the same old news. Everything seem to be the same, even the choice - Choice-Less.
People will continue to face struggles & difficulties in their daily lives. Who can help them? Is it their friends, families or perhap themselves? Not that I had become too cold-hearted, but rather the reality of the world had made me realize the ability of the individual and also the unfeeling/unsensitive surrounding. Where do I find comfort when I need it the most? Who is there to support when I need it? Therefore, till I am at ease with who I am, I will not think that I can support others constantly or contribute to their futures.
Of course, sometimes we are too engrossed in our own tiny little world that we fail to see what is happening around us. Do we have a choice or are we just left with a choice? Too many uncertainty and too many dissappointment has caused many to take a step backward rather than forward. Living in the comfort zones may be unacceptable to others but may be heaven to the ones who chose it.
Who do we live our lives for and who am I responsible to answer to? Am I trying to get the acceptance of others or do I simply do things the way I want regardless of others' opinions?
However, not all are lost and happiness will be there to those who continue to hold on or push on. I believe and I trust in those that perseverse on even though times may not be good at times.

Speechless

Been quite a while since I last update my blog. It's not because there is nothing going on but rather I've seemed to have lose the ability to convert my thoughts into words. Words seem to be getting lesser & lesser as the age get older and older.
Anyway, I shall do some quick updates which some had requested. Collected my car about 2.5 weeks ago. Received my first warning letter as I'm caught speeding 4 days after I collected my car. And even better still, a taxi bumped my car from the back last week. Hmm, is it my car problem or is it my own issue? Whatever the case, I still very satisfied and glad that I decided to purchase a car.
Not only it is a good tool to fulfil my own plan, I'm sure it brought some blessings to the others beside me too. Went to my first "blind" date thanks to the help of 2 very helpful folks. It's a interesting experience though....hee!!
Heard that S is going somewhere else to pursue her dream. Sad that I'm going to lose a activity friend, but glad at the same time that she's able to go and explore what she really want. Coming together and departures are part and parcels of life. Getting numb for the past few years already. Some people may be just beside you but we might not even have much in common anyway. Not being pessimetic but just stating the facts in life. Anyway, that's all for now.
