Thinking about Narcissism

A man so consumed with his own image that he drowns in it. Does he have any best friend to mirror back a healthy review of himself? And why is it that we can see our friends perfectly but when it comes to ourself, no matter how hard we look, do we ever see ourselves clearly?

What is the meaning of soulmate?

Soulmate - two little words, one BIG concept.

Someone, somewhere, is holding the key to your heart and your dream house.

All you have to do it to find them. So where is this person? And if you love someone and it did not work out, does that mean they weren't your soulmate or where they just a runner up in this game show called "Happily ever after?" And as you move from this age box to another age box, and the contestants get fewer and fewer, are your chances of finding your soulmate less and less?

Soul mates, reality or torture devices?

A day of "zhuang kwang-s"

8th Jan 2006 - A day when my tail got married and a day filled with "zhuang kwang-s" (ZK)

ZK number 1 - Pepe and I overslept!! We were supposed to be at Tail's place by 7am. Guess what I only woke up at 7.10am, after someone sms me wrongly and the sms beep woke me up. To think that I was so afraid of that I will oversleep and woke up once at 2.30am and 4.30am.....

ZK number 2 - Photographer was left behind!! After Babu fetched tail from her place, we set off for Babu's place. A series of miscommunications led to the photographer being left behind and one of the brothers gotta go back and fetch him....

ZK number 3 - Money money where art thou? All of us happily checked in and settled into the hotel rooms, awaiting the evening events. Went to Tail's room and she told me that they left the money boxes in the house.....

ZK number 4 - First time MC, was nervous but once on stage, everything was ok and went smoothly until the second march in......MC went faster than the actual event. They were supposed to "pop" champagne before I annouce family members up on stage. Too excited and called for the family members before the couple pop champagne....

Times flies, doesn't it?

Havent been writing for so long. Busy with things...Busy with what? Wendy and Edmund came, so busy "playing" with them; Festive season, so busy stuffing myself silly with gorgeous food; Tail got married, so busy with devising games to takan Uncle Babu; Just so busy!!!!

One night in late Dec, I was transferring some of the important dates onto my new diary, 2006 diary....As I was transferring, the events that had happened came floating into my mind. Friends' birthday and how we celebrated them; Countless tuitions and how I juggled them with my work and many more. Time really flies. All these seemed so fresh in my memories yet they happened a year ago.
