Wish

Star Light Star bright,
The first star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Have the wish I wish tonight.

Worrywart.

I'm really worried, really really extremely worried.. without a doubt.

Why? How?

If only I have the solutions for you...

Bro2, only you can help yourself! No one else will be unable to help you if you refuse to put your heart into working towards what you want to achieve.

There was a time.

I think in life, there will come this point in time where everything else doesn't matter anymore, except for familial love.

And so when one stops searching for a perfect answer, the answer presents itself in its purest and simplest form. Simplicity. As sweet, as short as that and it's the answer to my questions, or so I think.

I'm really blessed to have my family by my side all the time.. to have my PaMa (Papa & Mama) reassuring me, advising me, reminding me, giving me their blessings.. to have bro1 & bro2 spicing up my life, else it'ld be very very boring, sharing my dreams and woes.. to have my relatives caring for me in subtle ways. It's really 'cause of PaMa that I can say (yes, I've said this before), even if the sky falls down on me, I'll be safe, as they'll be there to hold it up for me. Yes and I know they can't be there for me forever, so what's most important for me is treasuring the little things that they do that make my life wonderful and these are very simple little things that make extraordinary impacts and changes.

I've decided.. I'll lead a simply complex life. Go figure! =)

What's life?

Yes. What does life mean to you? And what does life mean to my brother? Once again, he has disappointed us.

What do trivial matters do to you? Does every small thing count?

So tired of questioning, so tired of asking.

So tired.

Bye bye digital world.

My life.. currently..

Haha! Yes, admist attending meetings, bumming around, tutoring my bro, finding meaningful stuff to do.. I'm studying! Yup. I'm taking a special semester module- a module taken during school holidays- called "Intellectual Property in Cyberspace".

It's something refreshing for me.. after having done so many engineering modules. It provides an avenue for me to question the intangibles, to delve deeper into the topic which I took for granted and challenges my writing abilities. But all in all, it's quite an enjoyable module and quite a meaningful way to pass time.

Here's an interesting website everyone should visit.. for some light hearted entertainment! =)
http://www.patentlysilly.com/ and it only proves my point that the US is a lot more liberal and accommodating!

Perhaps I should add another task to my to-do list, that is... to create new inventions! Silly, out of the world, whatever man! =)

*HUMPH*

Tis' a season to be jolly! Yeaahhh 'cause it's the durian season and durians are ubiquitous!! And so not being able to resist temptation.. we decided to go for a durian feast after dinner today! But.. it was a rather upsetting experience..

.... that incurred our wrath, leaving us very unsatisfied!!

We stopped by at 717 Trading (yes, durians) at Serangoon, looking forward to a durian feast. The durian seller was very nice (initially) and offered us the durians that he deemed "good" and even claimed there were many seeds inside after my Dad asked him. Hence we tried the durians and they were good no doubt BUT we didn't know what we were in for. So after paying $50 for 6 really puny durians (1kg for $8), we headed home earnestly.

The truth will always be revealed. To our horror, there were a total of 22 seeds in 6 freaking durians!! And they were really small! OMG.. we felt really cheated, as we opened a durian after durian.

Freaking stall spoilt my mood and ruined my love for durians! All 'cause of dishonest durian sellers!

Cheat my feelings.. but I still love eating durians la! =P

Oh craps..

After being detached from writing properly for a very very long time, churning out a four page essay IS an arduous task. So difficult that I have already taken 5 hours to answer 3 questions! WTFreak! 3 questions- 5 hours.

Ok, and me being me, I was distracted and couldn't get my mind off----------- baking, or rather food! And so, while I research on the questions I have to answer, I was searching for recipes! OMG! And the more I searched, the more interested I got.. in the recipes and the delectable pastries and cakes took my mind off my work for a moment. Actually it's a very long moment, sad to say. Muahaha! I'm soooooo gonna start baking again! =)

How on earth did she manage to take such nice shots?????!!!!


Just as others are passionate about sports, studies, music.. I'm passionate about food and the art of............ FOOD! =) =)

Writer's Block

She stared blankly at the screen, trying hard to get the words to register in her mind but nothing seemed to be getting into her head. Just then a surge of apprehension overcame her, causing her goosebumps to show.

I've to get this done, by hook or by crook, she thought to herself. Then she took a stroll to her bed, lied down for a while, shut her eyes, woke up, sat in front of the computer and started typing furiously.

Burning desire

She stared longingly at the beckoning slice of dark chocolate cake at the display shelf. Her face scrunched up, eyes watering, she bit her lips really hard till they almost turned white. No longer being able to contain her excitement, she clasped her hands firmly and then turned to look at the stout figure next to her.

"Please....." she pleaded.

"No darling, that's not for you" he replied and walked away.

She knew that the answer would be as such but why couldn't she have it, she thought. Then as her eyes filled up with tears, she took one last look at the forgone chocolate cake, dreadingly, forsakingly, she trudged away.

It's JULY already!

Ok, you've probably heard this a million thousand times already but I'm still gonna say it! TIME FLIESSSS!!! Yes.. very quickly! To think I was lamenting of not being able to find a temporary job at the beginning of last month.. I guess, I wouldn't want to work anymore, even if given the chance unless it's some event based kind of work. Hurhur.

And so while others are enjoying themselves at e5, I'm sitting here, in a boring room. All right, I think I made the right choice for I've so many other things to do.. but ain't doing them yet.. yes like visiting the chinese physician, studying for the quiz (TOMORROW, WTF!), tutoring my brother, refining proposals (GAW and YEP), preparing for tomorrow's project meeting, sending my laptop for repair and more and more. Sheesh la! I'm such a sloth I should be slaughtered..

And what's with me (trying very very hard) making the most out of life.. when I'm wasting good precious moments, just lazing around.. =(
