Men VS Women. What a topic.
Recently read some articles regarding men. That the country is being unfair to men because men cannot sue women on the basis of outrage of modesty or rape etc. That men came out worse from divorces than women as the country does not provide a pillar of support for men as they did for women (there are alot of womens' associations in Singapore but none for men i think).
All that men are trying to say, is that the world is unfair to them.
But guys, think about it. Seriously think in the position of women.
Since the earth was created, women are always the weaker sex. Guys are stronger physically and emotionally and thus are on the advantageous side regardless of work or love life. Who's in the unfair position? WOMEN.
Most people prefer boys than girls when giving birth. Because boys can help carry on their family name whereas girls are like helping other families to raise their kids as they will be married off eventually. Please do not say that nowadays this type of thinking doesn't exist anymore. It still does. The father and the in-laws will still prefer boys no matter what. When you are pregnant with a girl, they will say 'Aiya, nowadays same la hor...'. If it's a boy, they will be super ecstatic with smiles all over their faces for the rest of your pregnancy period. See the difference??? So who is it more unfair to? WOMEN.
To help carry on the family name for your future-husbands, girls have to go through monthly menstruation, endure mentrual cramps and mood swings due to PMS from approx. the age of 13. When they are pregnant, they will experience morning sicknesses, backpains and fatigue. When they are giving birth, the pain (from what I heard from alot of people) is excruciating. Heard that it's menstrual cramps x 100 (I really CANNOT imagine that). Even if you choose to give birth via a caesarian session, you still have to endure the pain of the wound and a scar will still be left on your abdomen. What are guys doing during these periods of agony? Nothing. Just enjoying their life. So who is life more unfair to in this case? WOMEN.
Last time, men work and earn money to support the family and the women will stay at home to cook and take care of kids. Fair enough, I've got nothing to say. But now, men still work and earn money. Women too, work and earn money plus cook when they reach home plus have to take care of kids and their education whenever they are free. See the ratio of work load of men to women? 1:3. Is life unfair to men? No, life is unfair to WOMEN.
True, women nowadays do have certain rights like men does. Especially now, there are women who had affairs too. Does this overrule everything that I've just mentioned? No. I believe the the percentage of men having affairs are still much higher than women (Not that I agree with people having affairs). Probably you all can check with the Department of Statistics or something but I'm quite confident that I'm right. Plus, have you guys ever thought why women nowadays are like that? Hmmm...could it be due to bad karma or retribution? Think back...how are women treated in the olden days?? (those dynasty dynasty period la) They are just like baby-production machines. Their opinions are frowned upon, they have to share their husbands with dunno how many other women and still have to accept everything like 'life is meant to be like that'. The time for retribution has come for men? Ya, I seriously think so. Even now, men and women who have ONS or affairs are seen upon with different mindsets. Men are Oh-So-Macho. Women are Bitches. The world is unfair to men?? I don't think so. Unfair to WOMEN i think.
Thus, I think if you guys want to talk about unfairness, please think before you speak. You all understand what it means by 'light travel faster than sound'? It means some people appear bright until they speak. I do not wish to think that guys in the world are like that.
I bet some guys are fuming right now. You are all welcome to challenge me with your opinions. Cheers!

Sometimes I do certain things which i don't like or disallow people to do. There's no examples, coz there's too many that i can't be bothered to come up with one right now.
Me: You cannot do this.
A: Last time you also like that what!!!
Me: Because I can but you can't.
A: WHY???!!!
Me: BECAUSE THIS WORLD IS UNFAIR!!!!!!!!!!!
So please, do not start questioning me regarding 'Last time you also like that...'. F**K OFF!!! It will just PISS ME OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know what you all are thinking. 'Eeeee, such a spoilt and mean girl.'
Yes, I am. SO??!!!!!! HATE ME THEN!!!!!

Everyone who knows me well enough knows that i love kids. Infants rather, for i only like children from birth to about 4 years of age. After that, I think they become little devils.
Today, I had the honour to be invited to my friend's newborn baby boy's one (full) month celebration (where there were like red eggs and stuff u know...). I'm very very excited, haha.
1) Firstly, due to the fact that i love infants.
2) Secondly, because this is the first time I've had a friend who gave birth (so exciting!!!).
From the day Baby Xavier was born, my eyes were wide open everytime i went out - to look out for a perfect gift for the baby shower. Finally, i found something i can't take my eyes off...
SOoOooO cute right??!!! Adidas shoes for babies!!!
I always find these kind of baby shoes very cute, so when i came across this pair, i simply couldn't resist, although Baby Xavier can only wear it around the age of 1 plus or 2 when he's learning to walk...Babies outgrow their clothes and shoes very fast anyway.
So with my very artistic talent, i wrapped it up with care and...
TADDAH~!!!!!! The gift is now ready, perfected with a card.
And so, on my way i went to my friend's house, ALL ALONE (yes, that's how much i'd like to see the baby...and also both my friends la...).
When i reach there, my friend, Sylvia, is breast-feeding Baby Xavier, so i waited awhile and occupied myself with the buffet, drinks and also 'The Kindred Spirit' on dunno the 3rd or 4th time repeat telecast. Also, her husband (who's also my friend - knew them at the same time) entertained me abit.
Then finally, I caught my first glimpse of Baby Xavier!!!! And here, I present to all of you...
So cute right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????? Look so much like his father...
And with the encouragement of the baby's father, I carried Baby Xavier...the very first time i carried an infant coz i always think they're very fragile and i dun dare to in case i break their bones or something...
Ermm...please pardon my messy hair...the fan kept blowing my way...
I hereby sincerely hope that my both my friends, Edmund and Sylvia, have a happy marriage and a lovely family with Baby Xavier.

TO ALL HARRY POTTER FANS:
NO WORRIES, THIS IS NOT A SPOILER FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T READ THE HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE YET. HOWEVER, I TRUST THAT EVERYONE ALREADY KNOWS THAT THERE WILL BE YET ANOTHER DEATH FOLLOWING SIRIUS BLACK IN THIS BOOK (REPORTED IN ALL MAJOR NEWS CHANNELS AND ENTERTAINMENT NEWS)...ANYWAY, IT'S A FANTASTIC NO. 6. ENJOY!!!!
Finished the latest Harry Potter book this morning (I know I'm quite slow, but cannot blame me ok...I'm working leh...very tired). There were tears all over my precious book, got to put it by the window to dry up the tears. I had finally calmed down after brooding over the ending for awhile...
I had already heard that someone is going to die in this new book before its release on 16th July. And this particular wizard/witch had been on the top of my list of 'Possible-Deaths' way before the book's release. After starting on the book, I'm even more certain that this wizard/witch will be the one dying in the end. However, when the reality finally dawned on me, I still feel stunned. Certainly one of my favourites since the very first book, I'm devastated. I can't believe that he/she will not appear in the final book after accompanying us thru the ups and downs in the wizarding world. *tears rolling down my cheeks again*
HOWEVER, I think that this might be a pre-layout for the 7th and final book. Do not really believe that the 'murderer' is indeed as bad as Rowling made him/her out to be in this 6th book (noted some highly-suspicious points in Book 6), especially since he/she is a trusted character by a trusted character in the Harry Potter series (you all understand what I'm talking about?). I think there must have been some serious plotting by J.K.Rowling for her final book. -- Difficult to explain what I think here when I'm not suppose to be a spoiler, so anyone who had finished the book can call my secretary and schedule an appointment with me for furthur discussions.
Nevertheless, a GREAT book that is definitely worth the wait of...almost 2 years??? (if I'm not wrong) Worth the price too...$40 over okay...
Can't wait for the final showdown, Harry Potter VS Lord Voldemort, how exciting!!! But it would also mean that there wouldn't be anymore Harry Potter again...*sobsobsob*
Anyway, I'm going to reincarnate as Sherlock Holmes and re-read all my Harry Potter books again to find clues on the final book. Avid Harry Potter fans would know that J.K.Rowling always like to dig out insignificant characters or events mentioned in previous books...everything is mentioned for a reason...
p/s: I would like everyone to observe a minute of silence please, for one of the greatest wizards/witches of our time.

Just realise I'm a such a 'nice' girl.
EVERYTIME (yes i really mean everytime) I step out of my house, I will start scolding people until I reach my destination (and that's when I'm too busy with my friends or at work to continue scolding, not that i dun wan to). Well, I do not mean scolding people literally but i scold them with all the bad words I've ever known in my whole life IN MY HEART. There you go...I'm such a nice person right? I do not scold it out loud for fear of hurting their fragile hearts and egos...Another one of my good points...*very pleased with myself*
Examples of scoldings (usually happens on the various public transports):
1) On the Bus watching TVmobile:
I am sitting comfortably at the back of the bus with an absolutely good view of the TVmobile set. Programmes that I'm usually interested in includes ChannelNewsAsia, Just for Laughs, some sort of an entertainment news and also some advertisements on the movies that are opening soon.
Some guy with spiky-hair or auntie with disastrous-looking-permed-hair would come and sit right in front of me. It's okay since everyone is free to sit wherever they like although they already seriously disturbed my viewing pleasure. With spiky or permed hair, it is thus more difficult for me to get a good view of the TV. Never mind, my tolerance level very high one...I try to shift myself to a position where i can still see the TV although this will mean that I'm in a very strange sitting position.
Just when I thought everything is okay and i can resume watching my favourite programme, the idiotic guy/auntie in front will start to tilt their head over to the side where I'm watching the TV from. It's ok...I shift my position to suit him/her loh...(still tolerating...) But the person in front will continue fidgeting until i shift until I'm VERY PISSED OFF loh!!!
That was when I exploded. "CB LEH!!! WHY MUST THIS F**KER KEEP FIDGETING??!!! DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE WANT TO WATCH TV MEH??!!! TV IS PUT THERE BY SBS FOR PEOPLE TO WATCH ONE LEH, NOT TO BAI SWEE LEH!!! IF THE F**KER DUN WAN TO WATCH TV CAN F**KING GO SIT OTHER PLACES OR NOT???!!!"
2) Standing in the MRT during peak hours:
I board the MRT, found myself a cramp but acceptable space (it's the peak hour afterall, cannot expect too much), grab hold of the pole and just stand there staring into space daydreaming...
At the next stop, more people board the MRT. An Indian lady came standing in front of me. Normally Indians will have a certain 'fragrance', this lady in the MRT was no exception. But okay la, don't say i racial discrimination, I'm trying to be okay with the smell, no problem at all. Then you know Indian ladies all have those super-long-hair, which are also curly?? Ya, that's why they usually tie their hair into plaits. But nowadays i notice they do not tie into plaits anymore. Is it like out-of-fashion already or something?? Anyway...this particular Indian lady had her hair tied into a ponytail, which still enabled her 'ever-so-curly-and-bouncy-and-pretty-hair' to bounce all out freely and 'incidentally' kept tickling me.
Ticklish as it was, I tried to move furthur behind although there's not much space. However, the Indian lady saw more space behind her and moved behind also. Hmmm...okay, 'WO REN...' maybe she just want to give more space to other people that's all. Thought that's the end?? NO!!! The Indian lady dunno why started to flick her 'oh-so-pretty-hair' in a way that those models in shampoo commercials do. Once, it's okay...Twice, okay never mind, thrice...WAH LAU EH...I exploded once again.
"NA BEI, DUN THINK I TOLERATE YOU A FEW TIMES YOU CAN STEP ALL OVER MY TOES HOR!!! F**KER DUNNO YOUR HAIR IS SO LONG AND CURLY IS IT??!! WHY CANNOT TIE INTO PLAITS??!! YOU WANT TO BE SHAMPOO COMMERCIALS MODEL THEN PLEASE LA, GO DO REBONDING OR SOMETHING CAN OR NOT??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
3) On the MRT, sitting down comfortably:
I was sitting down in the MRT minding my own business and daydreaming once again...
When the MRT reached the next stop, the passenger on my right alighted while a whole bunch of people consisting of sweaty students and kiasu aunties rushed in. Being very kiasu, a 60+-looking-Ah-Ma rushed to snatch the-now-empty-seat on my right. She then sat down...and please do not think this is the end of the story...(which would normally be the case if it were some normal people following the Singapore's Public-Transport pledge*)
I think she felt that the seat was too warm for her comfort, or health, since the elderly always say that you will get dunno what kinda illnesses by sitting on warm seats that had been sat on by other people before you. So she shifted out her butt leaving a good 3/4 of the seat empty. This is normal...I've seen other aunties done that before also. Although i think it's abit rude especially if people gave up their seat for you...
But that's not all, dunno why this Ah Ma suddenly decided that she wants to look out of the window at 'the-beautiful-scenery', so she shifted her butt to her left which btw is my side and looked out the window on her right. This began to irritate me as her butt if pressing against my thighs and it doesn't exactly felt comfortable. But never mind, seeing she's an old lady...But that's not all...probably she still couldn't get a good view or something, so she began to shift furthur to her left. Ended up half her left-butt was sitting on half of my right-thigh.
As expected by all of you I suppose, I exploded yet again. "F**KING HELL LEH AUNTIE, WHAT THE F**K ARE YOU DOING??!!! YOU THINK YOU ELDERLY CAN DO WATEVER F**K YOU LIKE IS IT??!!! YOU KNOW WHAT IS BASIC COURTESY OR NOT??!!! YOU THINK AS LONG AS YOU COMFORTABLE AND HAPPY CAN DUN CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE IS IT??!!!! IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
These are 3 of the more common situations i come across. Of course I had came across many other situations also...that's why i gotto scold people everyday...Sigh...
Oh ya, and the Public Transport pledge* which i found it so true is as follows:
"We, the passengers of Public Transport,
poised ourselves as one kan cheong people,
regardless of old folks, kids or pregnant women,
to rush for unoccupied seats,based on pushing and shoving,
so as to achieve rest, slumber and sleep for our comfort".
p/s: To clarify things up, 'explode' doesn't mean scolding out loud, remember I'm a nice girl and I dun wan to hurt people's feelings? I only scold in my heart. However, the silent scoldings are accompanied by vicious stares of mine.

"同人不同命"...This chinese proverb (is it a proverb?? but anyway...) is SOoOoOoo damn right!!!
I have been working at Hermes this week. Although the job is tiring, but it has been an eye-opening experience for me...
Last time when I'm still young and 不懂事 (which is only like last week...), my definition of a Rich Lady aka 富婆 is as follows:
[Rich Lady - Someone who lives in private housing, got around 2 cars at home (1 for husband to go work, 1 for herself to go market), buys an LV bag every 2 - 3 months or so.]
Now then I know what a Rich Lady is really like - Everything also branded.
I still remember the very first customer on my first day at Hermes. It is a husband-and-wife, should be quite young, about 30+. They seemed to be regulars as the staff there are all very friendly with them. All the staff there called the husband 'Ah Sia' - which if I'm not wrong means someone who is very rich and always anyhow spend alot of money (correct or not huh?? sorry leh, I'm not hokkien so hokkien not very good). Anyway, they started to look thru the 'On Sale' items...which btw although 40-60% off, it still costs at least 700+ for a top which can easily be mistaken as something from This Fashion if you didn't look at it carefully...They chose for about 1 plus hours and finally decided on 2 pairs of shoes and approx 5-6 tops. And guess what?? I got the shock of my life when I heard one of the staff say '$12,600..." (the figure $12,000 sth la...). Wah lau, $12,000 plus leh, just spend it on some-ordinary-clothes-with-a-'Hermes Made in France' -tag and 2 pairs of quite nice shoes la i must say...but it's still a humongous sum mah...
That is not the most shocking thing for me. After that, my manager took out the Hermes 'legendary' NEW Shoulder Birkin by Jean-Paul Gaultier in Havana for the Rich Lady to see. (See above pic. That is not in Havana though, that is the new 'pumpkin-orange' color) She saw and tried in the VIP room already then went out to her husband, who's at that time paying for the humongous sum of money, to show him the shoulder birkin.
Husband: Nice leh!!
Wife: Nice hor...
Husband: (Excited) Buy lah...I can pay together...
Manager: (interrupts) Eh cannot ah, birkin got waiting list one...
Husband: Okay loh Okay loh, just put your name on the waiting list loh.
Seems like a normal conversation right?? BUT... ... ...(hold your breathe)... ... ...A Birkin costs tens of thousands of dollars...considering that shoulder birkins are even more rare than regular birkins, my guess is that it should cost around $20,000. Wah lau, people don't know hear their conversation would think they are talking about normal bags loh.
How come people can be so damn rich? How they do it?? Plus, that day is a Wednesday (a working day) but the husband and wife are dressed very casually. Confirm the wife is not working coz she came with friends and her children the next few days again. The husband only talked on the phone for a few times on that day(from what I heard is like to delegate work ba...). Plus he mentioned he always go for meetings wearing jeans one. How come so slack still got so much money?? Sigh...
Apart from tourists, 0ther customers of Hermes are all rich people also...Both men and women are dressed either nicely in pants and dresses or dressed very casually in t-shirts and shorts. But if you look closely at what they wear, you will realise that their clothes are from Club21, Giorgio Armani...their shoes from Gucci, Prada...their bags from Chanel, Vuitton...very 'WaHHhh...' right...Plus some of the 'Tai Tais' got those super-glaring-under-the-lights-diamond-ring, which from the look of it should at least be 3-carat loh...not including the small small ones surrounding the big solitaire for design-purposes only (Sad right...their design-purpose diamonds are what normal people like us wear by itself). Heard the staff there say that their local customers are all from the top 5% of the society in Singapore (all those driving Rolls Royce and Ferraris), no wonder alot of Taitais although never come into the shop together but they always give cheek-to-cheek-kisses to each other in the boutique. Must be they always accompany their husbands go for those kind of super-glam dinners then got to know one another....
Really '同人不同命' right?? Sigh...Why is it like that huh...Some people poor until have to struggle to ensure the survival of the whole family while some people buy everything branded, even slippers also must be Gucci one. Life is really unfair right...
But for me, I don't need to be like that...As long as next time I can still maintain the lifestyle my family provides for me now, I'm happy enough...Living in a HDB flat, got food to eat, can afford to buy clothes and bags and shoes occasionally (ermm...ya...occasionally...haha), every year can save enough money buy 1 or 2 branded bags (Yeah!!!)...Ya, I'm happy enough if i can continue this kinda life...See, I'm so easily satisfied!!! So please do not say I'm a pampered girl anymore ya?? ;p
p/s: Lucky during my work i got try on a pair of 1000+ high heels and a 700+ hat. Mai siao siao hor...hahaha, cannot afford try also happy ;p

Just found out that I'm contradictary in my life.
1) I Hate Work VS I Love Money
I really HATE working. Accompanied by the fact that I love studying, that is why I went back to school after a year's work. Some friends would know that my job's expiry date is about a month after I've started work. After a month of doing the same old things everyday, i get bored. This is especially so with office jobs. Sales job slightly better but very tiring, so eventually i will get sick of it also.
BUT, I LOVE money. I like shopping alot, so u can imagine how important money is to me. Can ask my friends, (for eg. Meng Ge, haha) I willing to spend alot on just one thing that i like...provided i have that kinda cash la...Plus, at my age i really got to start saving money already. So have to earn money loh, no choice...pocket money not enough for me to spend and save.
Result: Although studying now, still chose to find a permanent part-time job (and i already found a very good one). This is not only because of the money, i think i also need to start training myself to stick with one job no matter how boring or tiring it is. I hate to think that I'll still be job-hopping every month after I graduate.
2) 'Life is Exciting!' VS 'Life is a Torture...'
Life is so exciting!!! There's so many things to learn, so many different places to go, so many cultures i hope to experience, so many different kind of people i can meet...Every day is a lesson to me (seriously!). Sometimes, I really look forward to everyday...
Life is a torture...Sometimes I'm wondering what I'm doing now and what my future holds. Will I join the rat race after i graduate?? Become slaves for money?? Sometimes i really do not understand people. I do not understand what they want and how to please them. And i also do not understand why I have to please them in the first place. Really very tired and depressing at times...
Result: Makes me go into a series of ups and downs. Sometimes really optimistic and sometimes really depressed. Currently, I'm in a state of depression...
3) Good VS Bad
I think I'm a good person. Not very very nice, but shouldn't be too bad. I'm filial to my parents, nice to my relatives and I'll never ever betray people's trust in me...When I see the blind man at the Orchard Road tunnel, I will give him money (If I'm not poor at that time la...)...When I see charity shows like the NKF etc I will cry like mad when I see the suffering patients. (but I would not donate money to NKF!!! Not that I'm unkind but i really don't see why the CEO must get so much pay + bonus and many many other things...) See how good and nice a person I am??
BUT, sad to say, I'm not those forgive-and-forget-type. I believe in repentence in people but i don't see why i should accept it and swallow down all my fury and dissatisfaction. For example, I know and understand that guys separate love and sex. But i still can't forgive a cheating bf/husband. After reading so many articles on guys, i totally agree that guys should be given another chance (BUT ONLY ONE!!!) if they had cheated probably due to some unforeseen circumstances. But agreeing doesn't mean that I'll do it if it happens on me. (CHOI!!! TOUCHWOOD!!!) Because i will always remember it for as long as I live and if I'm still with the (stupid) guy, I will be miserable my whole life thinking about it every now and then. And why should I make myself miserable when the fault isn't mine???
Result: Sometimes thinking whether I'm considered a good or bad person...but does it really matter?? Even if i find the answer, so what?? But probably it'll affect my karma...Hmmm...
p/s: Pls do not think ur stupid if you do not understand what I'm talking about. Coz I'm not very sure of it myself either, think I'm like talking nonsense...

What am I doing so early in the morning?(Yes, this is considered early for me if ur wondering)
I have just been woken up by the THUNDERING VOICES of my mum and my auntie in the kitchen talking about dunno what. And FYI, i do not appreciate being woken up when i don't need to be up yet - It makes me very very unhappy (meaning 'Du Lan', but just trying to be more gentle here). And now?? I can't get back to sleep anymore. That's why I'm not happy, coz I'm a-girl-who-can't-get-to-sleep-easily-once-woken-up-by-ppl.
Why must aunties talk like they are in construction sites like that?? And they're not only talking like that in noisy markets, 'mind you...They talk like that everywhere else...At the void decks, in buses and MRTs and most importantly (and my point is...) at home. Don't understand, at home also must speak so loud meh. Sigh...
[Picture Removed]
Anyway, yesterday went to Orchard in the evening...bumped into a certain Mr C and Ms T (Oops, should be Mrs C now) at Kinokuniya. Do not really like this particular Ms T at all, think she's a-hypocrite-who-thinks-that-she's-very-pretty-and-only-know-how-to-act-cute. (Refer to pic above)
Think Mr C saw me but lucky never come talk to me. Let me now explain my feelings of dislike for her:
T: Dear Dear...This is sooOoo cute~ Can buy for me?
C: Har?! So expensive, don't want la...
T: Errr~ (*'teh' voice*) But I like...
C: But this small thing costs 50 bucks leh
T: Errr~ (*'teh' voice*) But very cute mah...pls buy for me...
C: sigh...Okay la Okay la...
*Note: The details of the conversation is solely based on my imagination. But the tones of both parties involved are based on real conversations heard last time
1) Can see what type of girl she is?? She is those 'teh' girls. Always talking in those shrilly voice of hers. Trying to act gentle and soft-spoken. Hate this type of girls!
T: Next time I want to marry Mr C.
Us: ...
T: Marry Mr C good leh, he's rich.
Us: ...
T: Then next time i can don't work, just stay at home be Tai Tai can already.
Us: ...
*Note: Congrats to her, her wish is fulfilled. Although yet to stop working coz Mr C in NS, but they already ROM. And from what i heard, she still intends to be a Tai Tai in the near future (when her husband ORD la of course)
2) See how materialistic she is?? I think she's with him in the first place because of 70% money, 30% love (even though Mr C isn't exactly good looking, cannot be totally no love la right...) Always see her ask Mr C to buy cute cute stuff, clothes, chocolates (yes, Sins chocolates...Thank goodness it isn't Godiva ones), eat restaurants etc etc etc... I may be practical about money okay, but definitely not materialistic. I don't go around looking for guys with big cars, big bungalow and an enormous fortune to inherit from his family (Which Mr C is), just someone who will be able to support a family financially in the future.
*Ms T abit drunk at that point in time. But not to the extent that she doesn't know what is happening around her coz she can still speak clearly to ppl and she's not vomitting.
*Ms T sat on the sofa seat next to a particular Mr A (Mr C's good friend) who's totally unconscious, knocked out by alcohol.
*Ms T put her hand on Mr A's upper thighs and touched him in a series of 'ups-and-downs' on those thighs.
*Mr C saw that and came to sit in between Ms T and the unconscious Mr A.
*Ms T (whom i tink is out of her mind) stood up and walked to the other side of Mr A where the seat is empty, sat down and continued touching Mr A. Ermm, yes...in the presence of Mr C.
*Ms T lied on the bed, apparently drunk (or 'acting drunk').
*A Mr-Dunno-Who (I think is Mr C's friend also), also another unconscious fellow, was also lying on the bed.
*Before long, Ms T rolled over and hugged Mr-Dunno-Who. (Yes, in front of all of Mr C's friends who were all in the room)
3) Need I say more? What kinda girl is she?? On their supposed wedding night somemore...Sigh...I'll not say anything else, actions speak louder than words.
Very unfortunately, Mr C's mother recently passed away due to an illness. (My deepest condolences) Losing his mother at such a young age, Mr C was devastated, and I'm sure everyone empathise with him. However, at the wake, it was said that Ms T still had the mood to crack jokes and laugh while her husband was crying.
4) How can she still laugh and crack jokes? Wakes and funerals are supposed to be a solemn affair and even if you don't know or don't like the deceased personally, you should still respect him/her for the very last time. Not to mention this is her mother-in-law.
I'm depressed thinking that such ppl actually exists in our world.
Nevertheless, i hope that they have a happy marriage.
To Ms T: Have a nice life being a Tai Tai.
To Mr C: Hope you have better luck finding a better wife in your next life.
p/s: Pls do not think that I'm talking behind ppl's back. The girl involved knows i don't like her.

Gathering yesterday night at Dbl-O with the pioneers. Evoked past memories we had together. The fun we had, the jokes we shared, the problems we encountered...
Come to think of it, it wasn't too long ago. From the beginning of 2004 til about July 2004, the group of us meet on a weekly basis. And not just meet anywhere, we always meet go clubbing. Haha. To the extent that we will always, BY DEFAULT, be at Dbl-O on Saturdays. But of course, our friendships slowly began to form way, way before that time la...complicated la...Poly friends' Sec Sch friends, Sec Sch friends' Poly friends...Anyway, we are all linked up since a long long time ago.
Every Saturday go Dbl-O, standard...
1) once go in...Vodka Ribena, Vodka Redbull (No Bourbon Coke pls, we hate it!)...
2) followed by 1 or 2 vodka/tequilla shots...
3) then, time to go dancefloor...
4) 12am - 1am, Cocktails and shooters 1-for-1. Crazy hour is here! Lamborghini for everyone!!! Drink until the bartender also knows us already. The conversaton always goes like this...
Us: "Can I have 5 Lamborghinis??"
BT: "5?? Now 1-for-1 leh..."
Us: "Ya I know, 1-for-1 so total 10 Lamborghinis loh...correct..."
(Bartender gave us a strange look and proceed with a black face to prepare our Lamborghinis)
*Note: After a few months of us drinking like that every week, the price of Lamborghinis at Dbl-O went up. (Oops...)
5) Always say after the Lambors want to go back to dancefloor, but we never make it back. Everyone kick come already then keep drinking. Tequila Pop, Blue Sapphire, Sex-on-the-Beach, Henessy, V.S.O.P. etc and more Vodka Ribena and Redbull for games all came into the picture.
6) Before long, vomits came into the picture also.
7) And our night ended with some of us drunk, some of us okay. Okay ppl send drunk ppl home. We always have the 'Care and Share' spirit. Haha.
I wonder how we all stopped the weekend-nights-out. I can't really remember already. But i guess it's because of the different paths all of us have chose to undertake in our lives. At that time, I went back to study full-time. Some continue their full-time work. Those in NS became busier with their training. All of us have our own committments, i guess that's why we stopped our regular-nightlife.
During those times, we always joke that we can only recognise one another in the dark, and maybe if we met outside of clubs under the lights, we would treat one another like strangers coz we can't recognise. Haha. And also, with the loud music in clubs, we could not have a real conversation, so we're thinking maybe we're of different frequencies and can only be 'clubbing friends'. Well, time has proven all these wrong, even though we dun meet up very often anymore, we also have other activities like Sentosa outing, Steamboat gathering etc. And i believe everyone of us still treasure the friendship we have...
So, as a tribute to our Past, Present and Future...I present to you...My Dearest Pals...

I'm not sad because there's nothing for me to be sad about.
I'm not happy because there's nothing for me to be happy about.
Then what am I?? S-Appy??
Sian leh...human-beings are always like that. Nothing to think about then try to think too much...create problems.
Logically thinking, my life now is quite problem-free: Having my hols now, just got my 'dream job' (heehee, happy!), waiting for school to reopen (coz i love school, in case some of u don't know that). As you can definitely see, although not a very interesting life, but nothing to complain about also what.
Sigh...PRECISELY!!!
But coz recently i think i'm too nice a person already, go and help people. FYI, i hate helping people coz i do not believe a good deed done will return two times back to me - Is that how they say it BTW?? Anyway, let's not diversify...Then i absolutely regret it, dunno why also, coz the person i help ok what, nothing bad about him/her mah. It's just a feeling loh. This happened in my poly days also. Got this person i really dun like, and for 2 long years i really dun understand why i don't like him/her leh coz he/she seem so nice, helpful etc etc etc. I even feel abit guilty for 'misjudging' him/her. Then in my last year, HAHAHA, fnally saw his/her trueself. My intuition are so accurate! *smirk* This time the feeling also the same loh. But this time, this person seem even nicer than my poly one loh. But nevertheless, i trust my intuition. Sigh, history is repeating itself. It's a vicious cycle.
Been regretting for a few days now leh...I usually hate helping people and now I've helped someone whom i think is a 'not-so-nice' person although cannot see the 'not-so-nice' factor in him/her, can you all imagine how i feel??!!! hahaha sorry, abit exaggerated...especially since a few of my friends are all trying to struggle thru turmoil times now.
To all my struggling friends, I sincerely apologise...Will definitely be here for u all if u all need help...
p/s: Hope that my good deed done will bring me good luck to strike 4D, Toto and win all soccer bets in the years to come...'Amen'...
