Complain Complain Complain.

The wake-up call brought me back to reality today. Nothing is as important as the exams now. But the intense pressure is mounting, too much for for any comfort. Just wanna complain abit. I am so sick that Singapore is so academic-results oriented. Yeah. So sick. Cuz I ain't getting any interviews so I wanna complain. Of cuz, there's nothing wrong with being results-oriented, if I am the employer, I'd probably want the best candidates - results is an indicator. Of cuz, please give this guy here who ain't quite developed up there in the area of academics a chance. Alright, thats much better now! You might wonder why I have so much time to blog, well, you don't need to have finish all that studying or be way ahead of your schedule to blog right? hee hee. My head is too big to mug right now. Anyway I will be working hard,constantly reminding myself of the wake-up call I had today. Now, on to some happy things. Below is a picture of the necklace I gave my girlfriend on her birthday beginning of the year. Yeah, I asked her to let me take a picture of it to show you that I too treasure her alot. ha ha. Its diamond lo. -show off- Abit small huh? ha ha. Don't get me wrong, I ain't rich or anything. In fact I'm a really poor bloke. =/ But its only right to dig into my savings once in a while to pamper my girl. Cuz she's worthed it.

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

I Will Be Back With More Time.

It is more than two years since I last blogged! Not that nothing interesting happened. In fact, plenty happened! Shifted house, shifted office, boys grew, had Hand Foot Mouth Disease (ouch!)! Just to name a few. There were gains and losses. Life's ups and downs. Of me, and those around me. I haven't been doing much deep thinking and thus less writing. Not enough time? That is probably an excuse. But it is true that I have not slept well for quite awhile. It is hard to explain the stress from work, where nothing goes smooth, and every step forward is a hurdle. Technology also had made it simple and addictive for us to mindlessly share. Share our thoughts in bits and pieces. Forming persona of ourselves to acquaintances and friends I hardly meet anymore. I remember experimenting with Tumbler, finding ways to post once, publish everywhere. It didn't quite work out. Even when technology made it is so easy, I have not been diligently editing and uploading photos of my darlin
