Moodiness Loves Company.

Feeling a tiny bit moody today. I can't quite pinpoint the cause. I suspect its because I waited for the next train to get a seat, only to find myself standing again. The reason is simple, I naively stood behind the yellow box for the passengers to alight. Hah! Been a while since I last complained, don't mind I do abit of it... Yeah, people are mean. What's the rush? The train was at Jurong East Interchange, it wouldn't be going off so soon. Oh! I forgot - rush for seats. Luckily, not all are mean - a man guided a blind into the train. The funny thing is, I finally sat down, only to realise Northpoint was staring at me outside the windows - I reached my destination! Seriously, I can't be that petty. Perhaps there are other reasons for this moodiness.

Maybe the reason is not talking to anyone about the lil' things in my life. For example, talk about what I did at work, or talk about how my BP has fallen a little yesterday... Talk to colleagues you might say, no, I don't want to talk to them about themselves and work again. Not to mention that I don't think they interested. Yes, the person I talk to, my girlfriend, is away in HK for holidays. No one to listen to my big theories and criticism of life, propelled by my gigantic ego! All the things bottled up are making me moody! I felt much better when I scribbled my rants with my stylus - that was why I made a fool of myself my sitting, standing, and getting off within 5secs lah. I think I do need more friends, friends who I can spontaneously blabber about anything, and who will do the same to me, always just a sms or phone call away. Any candidates out there?

Things are getting quite routine. "Work->Eat->Sleep". Yeah, its boring that life is centered around work. And the only real motivation is money that comes with it. Money to make ends meet, money to finance the investments in the future. In fact, I hate to talk about money. Although you must have probably heard it from me talking about saving and paying the bills many times.

Whatever the reasons, key to happiness is a better appreciation of things I have. And the holidays next week will do me some good. Happy Deepavali and Hari Raya folks!

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. :-)

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!
