on big bad moves

Suddenly, just suddenly, i feel that I am no longer the same.
Sadly, sadly, i feel that age is indeed sinking in. Despite my relentless bickering towards friends who tease me about my age.
我要甩掉忧愁；甩掉成熟。
That me in younger days, naive and happy, I prefer it that way.
Somewhere. It could still be there。
Perhaps it was a bad decision to step into the real world, and perhaps this is the 'reward' you reap for your own bad move.
找回单纯，青春，快乐。
也许快乐不一定是要把梦想实现才会有的。但是，我能做到吗？

on memories that never goes away

while flipping through my older diaries, i came across a hard copy of a photo i took with 2 great friends many years ago, during a trip to Bangkok.
The copy i printed, i realized, was erratically trimmed at the top, chopping our heads off. I panicked for a moment because i know for a fact, i no longer have the soft copy!

In a moment of frantic-panicky realization, i told myself, i must have blogged about it, since i was so happy then, so then i proceeded to go through all my blog entries, to find the forgotten picture which came across my path again.

This is what i was searching for. Thank god it is still around.



I miss those times.
When smiles and laughter happen so effortlessly.
And the brain worked less.

Bus Rides. A way to watch the world go by.

I love sundays & bus rides. Weekends are almost the only time i have to take long bus rides in the noon.

I have a love hate relationship with bus rides. 

I like it for the solitary experience. No matter how jam pack the bus is, me with my trusted IPOD, is just me, sitting alone, with many others strangers. Moving along familiar roads, reminiscing memories.

I wondered for quite a while now, when did i since, begin to enjoy such lonely moments. 

I could not recall, maybe its just a natural progression of growing up. 

Watching the greens, sitting in silence, reflecting; suddenly these unimaginable feelings of my pass feels like bliss. Am i innately an anti social being?

Today, during my bus ride, i saw:

1.  a usually empty nursery filled with people shopping for their new year plants - i realize, Lunar New Year is only 2 wks away, and yet i feel nonchalant. But the crowd did make me feel a lil festive. 

2. a flock of white birds flying really low in the sky - a captivating sight; i wished life was that carefree too

3. loads of lush green trees in seemingly forested areas - very soothing to the eyes and heart, i made a wish hoping that they will always stay as they are. I hate concrete forests.

I hate bus rides for the achy bum after the journey. 

A Merry L'l Christmas Post

2008. another few more daylights. it will be 2009.

Time zooms by, whether u notice it or not. 2008 has been. pretty fantastic i must say.

Many changes, many firsts, many happiness and of course many sadness that happens, so that we will learn to appreciate the happiness better.

I'm well prep for 2009. I got myself a new diary and i can't wait to use it, so thats pretty much the reason for my enthusiasm in welcoming the New Year. So for those of you out there who is not looking forward to the coming year, i suggest you get a new diary, and make sure its a really pretty one that will make u look forward to the coming year.

Hmm. Must be the festive season and singlehood.
