High But Sober.

When was the last time I was at Zouk? It must be during my national service days. In fact, that was almost ten years ago. The place was pretty much the same when we visited it just now. It was filled with young people, those of my age ten years ago. For old folks like us, it had been a long time since we drank. I was quite intoxicated just now. Yet, I'm still sober enough to pen this post. =p

Why would I wanna do this? It was because it had been quite an exciting night. We were all high after three jars of Long Island Tea. Out of fun, we encourage one of our friends to chat with this girl whose boyfriend had wenta the toilet. My friend merely asked for her name, and whispered a few words. When you get high, you tend to do some "crazy things". Tho' I think chatting up with someone is still quite sane. Surprisingly, when her boyfriend and his friend came back, they threatened to "whack" my friend. As we tried to explain that we were just chatting, the guy pushed my friend to the floor. This young chap, probably less than twenties, behaved like a hooligan. I think he was certainly still sober and had acted due to his big ego - he wanted to show that he was capable of "protecting" his friend. Luckily, tho' we were high, we were still sober enough to leave him alone and left the place.

My thoughts to this is that people don't behave rowdy when they are high or drunk. Rather, people behave rowdy, with the excuse that they are high or drunk. In this case, the sober guy did the irrational thing of pushing my friend to the ground. While, we, who were high, kept our heads and not retaliate. We were certainly the more rational group despite the drinks we had. But I think we are really too old for this "clubbing" thingy. =P

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. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

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...
