Dawn of the new era.

When do I start writing about the dawn of the new era, about the start of new phase? I read many. They talked about their future, about where to go from here, about the last days of exams, the last day of their academic life. I don't think I am quite ready yet. Not till the day when its all confirm (exams results out la), will the burden lay to rest. I guess that's one of my greatest weakness. I'm unable to commit myself fully for anything until I know I have the capability to do it. Perhaps its the fear of failure *touchwood!!!*. But then again, I have been telling myself, "Why not do your best, why short change youself?". And it had been quite effective.

I think luck has some role to play in it as well. Since luck had been on my side this week, most things had went well. In fact, after the successful presentation, the interview was good, I was offered a job, and I signed for the job. The luck will probably stop somewhere. And it sorta did when I went for my medical checkup. Was told that I have hypertension, probably need medication. I suspect its the Mac I had for lunch, the stress derived from school, but its probably just self-denial. I do have to start on a strict diet and exercise regime (something I talked about donkey years ago). Its not the end of the world yet for me, things are looking good. With a lil' fine tuning here and there, I should be a happy guy right? At least some ppl will say, "Hey you found a job liao, what else you want?". Yeah, I should keep my chin up, I ain't exact a "patient" or anything.

With all that happening, the thoughts and plans of the new era will have to wait. Perhaps I still can review somethings from the present phase. I have decided to publish the secret (few have read it) diary of leslielim (yesh, thats my name). It is entitled "Before I Grow Old" or BIGO for short (yes, its a rip off, but I like it and its fitting). It contains the diary entries which I sent to some close friends during in the 2nd semester of my freshman year (which I mentioned in the first entry of this blog). You can say its a peek into my untamed youth, to inflate my silly ego, mostly its just for laugh. Here's the address: beek-oh.blogspot.com

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
