Getting On Their Nerves.

Asking people to join me for the trip has turned out to be tougher than expected. Is it $ or time? Or is it really just me? Hmmmm... Sorry if you can't feel my sincerity, I seemed too pushy, or I had actually annoyed/irritated anyone along the way. It really hurts to hear it so. Ouchie. I hate this feeling. Grrr... If not for the prompting of "Then", I wouldn't have continued the attempt to convince. My tiny lil' brain just find it difficult to process reasons like "I don't feel like it". Not so rational for a Male-Engineer-Brain. Not to mention single word responses. Is this one of nature's mystery that I have to decipher? Perhaps you think I am petty, perhaps you will feel the same if you were in my shoes. Convincing people is really tough, definitely not the thing I do well lah... =(

It's really strange how there can be up and down within a day, a swing of mood from end to end within hours. Suspecting my EQ level is actually quite low to be affected so easily. =p

Anyone care to join for the trip? heh heh...

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

The Last 24 Hours, Twenty-Thirteen.

If you were wondering... Yes I did it for the fifth time on the eve of New Year. Just two of us, made the journey from Marina Bay Financial Centre to Kampung Glam, via the newest Downtown line. You can see my photos here . Still looking for people to join us end of this year. :)
