What a lovely sunday morning or izit afternoon? I slept at 6am this morning courtesy of Troy which lasted like a good 3hrs! Went PS yesterday to catch the greek epic. Brad pitt is da bomb! alpha male, numero uno! he kills with indifference, challenges authority...in one word...ATTITUDE! Am supposed to go swimming today, but umm...kinda *drained* so I guess I will leave it till later.

Hot
Was down and out for the past couple of days with splitting migraines. That’s outta the way now and the storm brewing in my reeling mind has subsided into a little gust. Had an unpleasant presentation this morning. Walked from orchard MRT all the way to STB building only to find out it was at orchard parade hotel and had to walk back! Took me a nice 20 minute lovely stroll down orchards back-lanes filled with trees and shrubbery (*wince!)
And when I finally was there, I thought I was attending a secret Jihad-Cell meeting. In my opinion it went horribly wrong. Clients were pressing for answers without wanting to pay; hoping to steal our ideas I bet then employ their own methods saving cost without hiring us. Probably the withholding of info made them lose their patience and the presentation was adjoined till a later date. Interesting tug of war of words was unfolding and I came away with a slight bitter aftertaste.

Pop

Pop Cult Art.

How I pass the time @work.
1. Itemize my work and calculate in order of importance and urgency.
2. Those that need to be rushed out by afternoon are dealt with immediately.
3. It’s off to check my 4 different email accounts, one for work, one for friends, one for girlfriend and the last one is for miscellaneous crap.
4. I will proceed to check on my 3 online friend network accounts for messages and bulletins.
5. Blogs are next, nothing like a good read from a couple blogs from my friends to update me on their lives and me being a overall busybody.
6. A detailed read of the 3 major newspapers in Singapore, The Straits Times, Newpaper and Today. On occasion I will read the English Times and The Washington Post or New York Times.
7. Around this time it would be lunch, after a quick fix, I’m off to Borders to scour for car mags with my colleague.
8. Once I’m back its time to check my forum postings.
9. I would take a short 2 hour nap just to recuperate from the exhaustion I suffered earlier during the day.
10. By the time I wake up, its about only an hour more before I leave the office, a nice chat with some friends online and the pretension of me doing my work and its adios amigos! Senor is returning home.
Renewal
Like a breath of fresh air flushed into a stale room,
the slight fragrance of lilies in blossom during spring.
Reawakened? or Re-born? the cycle of life never ends,
past occurences return, present happenings appear,
the future awaits.
No one knows the answer, Fate isn't pre-determined it is created.
Dreams lay unfufilled, hope makes you live on.

Sleepy
My throats still kinda clogged, decided not to go anywhere today just lazed around at home, had a hearty lunch with my dad, my mum went for her BIG Walk and came back empty handed (as usual...where's my car??) Then we just kinda had family time chatting in my room with my gf (whose still folding cranes hehe). I booked 2 tix to Van Helsing at Bishan. Thought the show was about to end and wanted to see what the big hoohah was. It was more like hum-dum yawnz...Sent Erin back home only to part with her shortly after that, I miss her so so so much.

Cranes

2 Cranes folded by my baby, Erin.

"Busy but Happy day" (supposed to be hectic but gf said it sounded negative, so she added this), went to Parkway with Erin to buy a prezzie for her friend's 21st B'day. We bought this "S" shaped pendent and had lunch at the Thai resturant upstairs. Oh yea, i met Terence shopping with his gf as well! Been such a long time, since I last saw him. After that we rushed off to Costa Sands at Pasir Ris for B'day celebration. It was hot! I mean in the sweat, perspiring hot. Didn't stay for long and we took a 240 back =D
As I'm typing this, Erin is folding paper cranes, hehe, took a pic. So sweet, never had anyone fold cranes for me. Gonna treasure them forever.
Love
Is blood really thicker than water? If a family member was in the wrong will you side with an outsider? My family seems to function as per normal like most other households. But thats just a facade, something meant to portray to outsiders that everything is fine and dandy. But its far from it, I have almost had enough of it, I'm torn between running away seeking solace in the comfort of my other half and staying behind to rage a losing battle.
In a war that has no right no wrong, no black, no white, after a while you just lose sight of your target, the goal that you were striving for, gets blurred. Who are the causalities of this war? The children... I feel helpless sometimes, afraid I might add fire to the already flaming wok. Only able to lend a tender listening ear and comfort the tormented. I sleep uncomfortably at night, not knowing what the immediate future holds.
The future might seem bleak, hostile and even hopeless. But I discovered another human trait, the power of love. Love conquers all and so they say. Love gives hope. Love soothes the soul. Love heals the wounds. Be it love from your family or friends, treasure it, relish in their love, cherish it. All you need is love. I recover from each set back with the love from the most important people in my life, what i need most now is to...
