Another lunar new year
Yes indeed. A brand new one ahead.
the usual buzz took place at home, but with a slight twist of things.
#3 didnt turn up till quite late. I bet its due to the tension created several
months back. in my view, that incident was a complete waste of time.
i hope those involved realised that. MOVE on guys!
The heat came down mercilessly. thankfully the dress came sleeveless.
Mdm was pleased with her outfit. Am glad she does...
poker seemed to be the game of the season. the session at ivan's was
very enjoyable. Shaune came along with his bagful of goodies.. heh

Got reminded of this muse spot over dinner yesterday.
Ah yes...i do hv a forsaken blog. Very much guilty of not leaving type-prints on it for such a long time. Perhaps am just running out of thoughts to note. The diary is nicely tucked at a little corner too.
Jan's over...Feb is ard the corner. Wonder if i shd plan up a party nxt month...mm.. been a while..
Lets see...
Someone gave a suggestion of a macdonald's party.. hhehehe.. mebbe i should just do that!

that inner peace..
is it that tough to attain? somehow.. that need triggered today. "You should leave the office by 630pm" so says the boss..
felt weird to step out of my keyboard and monitors fortress, seeing some evening sun. the streets were quite crowded. i'm not used to that.. the subway was packed..i'm not used to that.. stroll to the axs machine for bill payment... eyebrow session.. nt quite used to them, esp for the past 3mths.. am i officially burnt out? perhaps...
the stack of readings threw me a nasty glare.. can't seem to leave them alone. picked up a copy - SG weekly.. flipped thru.. they actually make sense to me. the others stared hard at me once more.. i couldn't be bothered. i needed to write.
to feel better, to be more at ease. have not penned for a long while. the diary looks dusty by the bed side. the last entry looks horrid... unsightly handwriting. somewhat wish that i regain that ability to pen something that looks decent. laziness? perhaps..
or perhaps just another convenient excuse...
perhaps meditation works.. or sitting by the beach sipping mojitos...... u tell me what works..

fulfilment..
the week past way too fast. i could barely catch up to clear my thoughts. the trip to the hk office was tiring.. i hate the last flight out schedule. swear i'm not gonna do that nxt time. at least on the return leg.
rush- airport. rush-hotel. rush-office. rush-meeting.rush-dinner.rush-office.rush-lunch.rush-airport.rush...
that was the schedule. perhaps the only comfort was the light brown BV wallet i got for myself. the 2.55 was calling out. shaune and adler think its nice.. very wicked.
fulfilment popped the brain. am i feeling fulfilled? speaking of basic needs.. the hierachy needs some reworking.
perhaps..one day.. i will be ready to move out..and she'll be ready to accept. she needs to learn..and i have to learn as well.

3 days to go..
And yet a new environment. Wonder if i'm all numb to the rapid change in environment. perhaps not?
perhaps i like the thrill of rollercoaster rides.
the trip away was good. been a while since i went on something alone.. yet not alone. trudging to lantau was quite
a challenge. the scorching sun, rising humidity did not make the journey all that enjoyable. recalled dozing off
during the bus ride. i'm quite a pig. i like to sleep. heh..
quite a few errands to check off.. photos, admin, and a health check

New beginning beckons..
finally, all cast in stone. am ever so grateful to the opportunity. the process felt surreal.
tedious - nevertheless a bitter sweet symphony. perhaps like what fishball said, i should order
the fav choc cake. hah.
its odd how the neighbour feels odd. somehow, someway, such behaviour seems a little self inflicted.
does not matter to me anyhow. perhaps it was a temporal amusement.
hope that he knows that i bagged it. the frequent chats over jogging perhaps helped. thankies my beloved.
pls be proud of me for i want you to.
pack,shelf,file,delete... the same process once more. seems familiar.

Forgotten...Forsaken...?
Haven't made my entry for a long while. Thank goodness its not forgotten. The past month has been busy. Preoccupied with preparations of the trip. Maiden one with Amy. A very memorable one. Thank you dear for the time and willingness to come along.
Things have sorta come to a simple resonance. Perhaps its good for the short term. Definitely not for long. Have become somewhat subdued, quiet and lost in my own realm. Not sure if this is really me. Perhaps.
Fathers' day passed and i bought daddy his favourite fruit cake from Mezza9. He liked it. His special day is coming quite soon.

And Finally....
The day arrived. Donned the harry porter robe once again. The setting is somewhat different this time. I was my own chauffeur to school. My passenger - Mrs Lim Cheong Ling.
" Do i look ok in this outfit? " "Yes you do mum.." She was eager and excited for the occasion and am sure she silently prayed for his presence. It felt like he was out of town.. one of those days.
The campus brought great memories. Painful nights spent rushing projects, assignments and discussions. " Where are you headed to after work today?? " " Back to school" - I'd exclaim. "Oh..poor thing.." Yes, i got that alot, alot and alot.. It was depressing at the initial stages. Subsequently, it was part of my routine. A routine which gave some meaning to time spent. Well at least i'd wish and viewed it upon as time well spent.
Soy milk, fillet-o fish, sugar rolls and sandwiches were the fav dinner staples. Tcc coffee was the default hang-out plc with "the gang". The stroll to campus, the gaze out of windows during breaks felt just like yesterday. Not forgetting the chauffeured rides on sat evenings and sunday mornings+ afternoons by him. I felt i was priority... thank you daddy..
I wished she had company on saturday.. mebbe she did :) ok am sure she did.
On hindsight, the journey felt unreal. Too quick, and as mentioned to a fellow graduand.. i need closure.. some sort of a gradual closure. Perhaps it all started with a dream- a dream filled by realism with time.
Perhaps thats how things should be... dream a little dream...

Good old times..
the clock ticks, the hours past, the days fly.. yet the friendship remains strong. spent the wkend with the crazy bunch of sports club friends. must have been years since we last spent 3 consecutive days together. The trip to Bintan realised after months of planning.
Everyone moved on in their separate ways after uni. Somehow, the trip brought everyone together, and puts a little reminder that we are still who and what we used to be- Lots of spontaneous fun. I love them.. thanks guys for being such a fun bunch of friends.

Odd hours... fatigue... and a state of uncertainty...
day 2 of odd hours- not fun. Fatigue, yes indeed. Several errands to run... loads of knots to untangle. The path ahead seems uncertain. then again, such is life. can't get too clear can we? grrr.. what a twist.
looking fwd to clarity once again. nevertheless, the golf swings were fun! each good swing brings such satisfaction.

Swing swing swing...
2nd golf class. not too bad a lesson. managed some pitching and putting. gotta work on that swing a little more.
weather was a little harsh. 2 consecutive days of sun got me a little burnt.
somehow.. thoughts are just not flowing as much, or as well. Am i losing the capacity to formulate deep thoughts? am not sure.
And yet, the new year resolutions are not concrete.. very very strange......

Back to class...
Not for the financial 'goodness' this time. But for the official golf lessons. The range is quite a bit of distance to travel - Laguna in the far east. Nevertheless, the drive up was nice and speedy.
Feedback from first lesson was good. The swing felt right and proper footing and grip were somewhat adopted. Managed to round up the lesson with a nice hit - reasonable distance of abt 70-75m range ?
Alot more to practise.. nxt....to get my hands on the iron.

Time of the year...
the new year ushers in.. year of the ox. the joyous mood seem dampened this year. perhaps due to the bad economic sentiment. i wish it was just due to that. however, deep down inside, i do realise why things are different. his absence. he used to buzz abt with mum. from florists to groceries shopping. the heart wrenched as i recount the days spent together.
the flood gates somewhat were released on desk today. thank goodness everyone was away.
