I have moved! ^.^

Ok it's finally up: My Own Blogsite

Yeah~! ^.^v There isn't much now, but I'm improving on it.

The Long Day Is Over

We see the sunset,
Calm red & round,
Converging with its reflection,
Down the horizon it shortly shifts,
Dragging the shadows longer,
Pushing Time out for its last act,
And sorrow sets in a crimson tide.
The long day is over.

Feeling tired
By the fire
The long day is over

The wind is gone
Asleep at dawn
The embers burn on

With no reprise
The sun will rise
The long day is over

Sunshine

I lost my way

I hold you in my hands
A little animal
And only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone
Can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun
Can anybody find their home

I walked 63,360 inches just to find you

I would walk a mile to find you,
stay up late to know you,
listen to all the troubles worrying you,
be there to walk with you,
risk everything to be with you,
never will i forget you,
because everything that i do ends with you.

Project :: Indie Music

Been looking for music of some 创作型歌手, they are quite rare in the market cos they are non-mainstream & do not enjoy as much publicity. I've been looking for this particular CD by a female singer since 4 years ago but still have no idea where to find it. Still, the melody of the one & only song i've heard from her 4 years ago still rings soundly in my head.


陈珊妮 - 来不及

The song from that album was the only song that made it onto the pop music station Y.E.S. 933. I like the song the very first time i heard it. Sadly, the song did not enjoy much popularity in mainstream music, although it is truly touching. I could not even find a download for the song online. But at least now i know how the album looks like. Going to look for it again soon, hunt down all the music chain stores =)

Sweet Omelette~!

Bacon Omelette
-For the carnivorous omelette eater, a bacon omelette is sure to please any Neopet!

Feeds to Aisha... Aisha takes a bit out of the Bacon Omelette... Aisha says "Uh oh, i think i ate a little too fast" =)

No neopet can resist a 1/3 bite out of the sweet omelette, with all the varieties out there (i thought the Carrot and Pea Omelette & Bacon and Broccoli Omelette were weird). Me too! Omelettes accompany me through the darkest dinners (when it was cold & storming), & never fail to cheer me up with its brownish-gold colour & soft bite. It doesn't need much condiments too, just some salt & pepper. Yummy!

An interesting article on sweet omelettes... dessert recipes that are simply heavenly!!! *^.^*~
Drool over it!

I was here at 11-Apr-05 22:00hrs. Monday Blues was with me all the while. Good pal Depression was here too, I'm sure you can feel its presence...

For whatever's sake, get me out of here!!! :-(

Chasing a broken dream with good faith

*awwwwwww* a happy ending for Chase... It's beautiful... one of those really special & personal moments that you can snuggle up to, when you shut the world off & slips into that little comfort zone, where time stops, & you live an eternity. *snooze*

Oh, next episode's gonna be interesting. The mother of all teen dramas; falling in love with your best friend's gf. Will it turn all nasty? How could he have done this in the 1st place? Just when Gabriel managed to nurture a close relationship with Ellie, & this gay lover who has been in a totally different part of the story, walks in & says "excuse me"? Lol, definitely watchable. David & Ellie together can definitely do a spin-off of "Achar pt. 2", haha...

Aren't they cute puppies? *^.^*

Ok, i confess... i like this short series a lot though it has low profile, stage-style acting & all too perfect actors & actresses. Maybe that's why i like it. It's got a feeling of a short story that you like reading come to life.

Then i watched True Courage, the concluding episode. I've been wanting to watch this episode since i saw its preview. On paper, it may seem just another GP essay question on morality of abortion. However, putting it into perspective of a real-life event & looking at it with your heart, it is a chapter in life with much to learn & reflect. It's about a mother whose mammogram scan diagnosed that her unborn baby has bodily defects. He has an unusual skull, & his fingers & toes look fused together. Looking at the events folding out, it is very heartbreaking, knowing that this being of a beating heart can constantly be felt within the mother, the closest thing that she ever has, her proudest & happiest baby, suddenly all shattered because he is imperfect. How can you bring yourself to accept the truth? You still love him as much & he is the most ever important thing you ever wish to have, but now he has physical defects. How would you bring yourself to accept it? Would you want to turn him into a memory & let it all fade away? Would it be more cruel to have him born & taste the bitterness of a handicapped life?

Love is an act that shows your attachment to someone, to show concern & willingness to protect one from harm. A love for the baby does not mean a decision on his right to live, but a pledge to care for him forever from the day he is born. One will never kill someone he loves, for any reason there may be. & this is a statement of faith, to put the ones you love on the same level of trust as you. A baby may not be able to read or talk, but he can understand & learn your emotions. You trust that he understands why you have born him into this world of suffering, & will one day come to be grateful. This is the unconditional faith that will help overcome times of dilemna.

Although I am a free thinker, I have come to understand the need of faith as a basic human trust, regardless of your religion, but simply the fact that you are alive. Religion is a medium that helps you keep the faith you have found, so you will never be lost, & will always find people of the same faith around you. Although i have no religion, i am realising the ways of life each & every day, & understanding why people need a religion to survive.

Pre-dating blues & reds

Not knowing what to do to a date to make it successful? Firstly, it must be of a ripe age to be sweet, then it has to be dried until the texture is crunchy but the meat inside is still soft... & you'll get this:

Ok That's what you turn into if you fail to plan for a date too; you'll turn red & shrivel up. =) Dates are still an interesting & important part of a relationship, even after you have celebrated your silver jubilee (congrats~!). It's everyone's joy to relive the moments of youth, of how your heart bounces the 1st time you set eyes on the most appreciated person in the world. To fall in love all over again! Haha...

K gotta get going, more to come later! =)

But what I know is...

=) Hee...


^.^ So they actually dispatched earlier, 1 week in advance to be exact.

& something else...

I am glad for what i have & fortunate that i have made the decision at a right time. Whew... =)

Shaolin Soccer Philosophy

Responsibility is something that we do not see, but start to realise slowly. It is just like an invisible football. At the beginning, you are always hit by it because you do not see it coming, & you can't handle it at all. After you get knocked down plenty, you learn to catch the ball when it comes, although blindly. As you get accustomed to your job, you can start to predict where it will come from & how to dribble it well. Then you learn to pass the ball to others. You may kick it too hard & hit your own teammates, or throw in a clumsy manner. However, that will improve when your start acquiring the new skill of deflecting the ball away. You learn to reject a pass by deflecting the ball to someone else, even before catching it. By then, you would have mastered the physical laws that govern the movement of the ball and can predict where the ball will come & go. Finally you will learn to score a goal, where you bring the ball right into the door of your superior.

While you can score a goal with a one-man show; in this world, the workplace is like a 11-man footbal TEAM. You are brought together with a common target: to survive. However, everyone's goals are different. That's why it is often a group playing a team's game.

No matter how good a commentator you are, or how accurate you are at predicting goals, you will never understand how the ball moves unless you play on the field personally. It is only then that you can understand both the player & the ball; the team & the importance of victory. Responsibility is just like experience; no amount of words of advice can bring out any amount of meaning.

& I am just tired & dejected from the amount of work pressure that responsibility can bring to you. People are always being kind; instead of expanding their territories, they let you take over their spheres of responsiblity. Coming straight out from school & working in NS now, I've learnt that there is nothing friendly about that 1st smile a working partner gives to you. Responsiblity flows more fluid than water down along the hierachy, & as it gets deeper, it gets sludgier; finally it gets stuck (you've guessed it), not right at the bottom, but somewhere just below the middle, like your water pipe, your blood vessels. All it needs is a little mistake, a little sludge by the inner side of the pipe, a little lump of fat in your vessel, & it will attract those that come along & grow to an exponential size so fast that you are out of breath even before you have taken in the first. The snowball effect. The "being-arrowed" feeling. Deadliest, fast & lethal. No one can escape from responsibility, because I have yet to understand the world yet. Maybe someday all will be enlightened, the day when all shall be revealed. But that day has not seen any light, yet. Responsibility works just like energy; it cannot be destroyed, it is merely converted to other forms (motivation or depression), and passed on to other objects (superior or subjects). If you think you have escaped, take a look around at all those suffering in your place. You can try kicking the ball out of court but there will always be another one thrown in immediately.

Unity is strength, if you have a superior that will stand up for you, applaud for the victory of your team. If you have teammates that are willing to take the hit & catch the ball, you have good strikers, & aggressive defenders who always make the 1st move, you have a World Cup team. However, such teams are not formed with payoffs or $ contracts. They cannot be bought, but only organised with trust. Trust is a glue thicker than blood, stronger in faith, & works best when spread.

Anyways, I was having some huge problem in the evening because the ball was kicked out of court straight into my home. It was a last-minute pass & I didn't have time to react. I was never taught any tactics to respond to this trick, & an opponent's goal seemed eminent any moment. Almost on the edge of despair but inability to give up, I tried to pass the ball away but everytime it gets kicked back to me, it gets bigger. Uh-oh, the snowball effect that will bring up all the dirt & dust from the past. Suddenly it seems that all faults are belong to me. But then all of a sudden, the referee intercepted & the storm just dispersed as quickly as the clouds had gathered.

All things have two sides of explanation. If you can't see the truth in your side of the story, you are good as gone. Many stories only tell one side of the event, so you must be optimistic & stand up for yourself. If you don't, who is going to? Always speak in a direct, definite one-way manner, be specific & narrow so nobody can U-Turn your words. Especially organise your thoughts into a continuous progressive line, supported with a parallel string of evidence & proof, instead of a dotted line of broken views. Follow your views through & never, at any time, consider the possibility of the other party; because then you will have a head-on collision & be sorry you were ever here in the 1st place.

Workplace relationships is but one of the social relationships we have to deal with; but i'm already getting wary of all of it, even before I have started working as an adult. Maybe because I think too much? I still dream of a countryside life on the green plains of Switzerland... how much is a peace of mind selling for? & how far away is the road to freedom, can it ever be measured with a string of happy thoughts?

I wish i knew, but the only thing i know is that i know nothing.
