Mental Strength and Character to Prevail.

It was my first cup finals on cable. The Red Devils lost 5-4 on penalties. Not a graceful win for the opponent team. Penalty shootout is a cruel and unfair way to decide the winner. An inaccurate representation of the team's performance. "...they had the 'Mental strength' and 'character' to prevail" That's darn bullshit.The fact is both teams had shown pretty much determination, enduring the more than 120 mins of gameplay, and the team won simply because they had luck on their side. But of coz, nothing is really fair in this world. I am just a bit disappointed that they came short in winning the cup. Probably many would be cursing for losing money. On a separate note, below are some pictures of the Valentine's Day gift I received earlier this year. I have decided to post it because the other day I finally have the chance to eat it together (hmmmm... yeah.... it was in my fridge all along). So we took some pictures before sinking our teeth onto the cookie. Yum Yum! It was still edible! The Mrs Field's Chocolate cookies are incredible! You must try it if you have the chance okay?

Resolutions 2012.

While my one-year-old is going for his first steps, I am also learning to walk (again). 2011 was full of ups and downs.  I was promoted for the 2nd time in my first job. Not fantastic but not bad either after six years. The challenging issues justifies for the few more dollars increment to the stipend. Murphy is my good friend. With only the final milestone left, I hope to overcome all odds and pull the rabbit outta the hat in 2012! If I am lucky, I may run another project.  For the consecutive year, I expended all my medical leave. After hearing my story, some may say 父爱是伟大的. Some may think I was pure clumsy. As my son likes to watch basketball playing, I decided to show him how to do it myself. At first I felt good, I got it plenty of shots. Unfortunately, I broke my ACL while chasing after the ball. It has been two months and my knee is still weak and hurts occasionally. I plan to go for surgery in 2012, while performing the balancing act of pulling the rabbit and recup...

The Last 24 Hours, Twenty-Twelve.

It is becoming a tradition. This is the fourth time for me. This year, two new companions joined me for this journey in the last 24 hours of 2012. As usual, is only for a few hours in the afternoon. But I like the sound of it, "last 24 hours".  It started out in 2008 for me, a ala    Eye é City . For the record, it was another rainy new year's eve. We started our journey at Thian Hock Keng, Amoy Street and ended at Raffles City Shopping Centre. It was interesting for me as it was my first time to Thian Hock Keng. This year, instead of posting the photos here, I have uploaded them to my Flickr account . The photos look better there as I don't have to reduce the size of the photos for this blog. I will re-edit the past photos and upload them as well when I am free. Who will join me next year? You can sign up now!
