Art = Expression
I recently attended a course on travel photography. It made me realize one thing. That art is not just about painting and sculptures. Art is an expression of oneself. Sounds cheem? I think not.
My view is that Art is very personal. It is ones expression of what they have seen and felt. Data taken in from all their 5 senses, and expressed into one object. Be it a painting, a sculpture, or in this case, a photograph. It tells a story.
I use to dislike the idea that every photograph MUST have a story. I felt as long as it looks nice, that would be good enough. However, now I appreciate that, a picture can be more than just for aesthetic, it can paint a thousand words. It can express a feeling.. even a novel might not be able to bring across.
If art teaches us one thing, it might be to learn to better appreciate the finer details in life.
For example, color (or the lack of it) brings another dimension to a picture and its story. Sometimes, too many colors will distract the viewer from the focus. But if used wisely, one simple color can tell a lot more words than can. Just like the movie HERO by Zhang Yimou. I love it because of the colors. It tells the background and feeling of each character in the story. It was brilliant!
Pick up a paintbrush, take a photo, express a part of yourself into a piece of art, and leave it as your legacy in this world.

Flyer
Was at the flyer yesterday... its a nice view. I always liked huge structures. It partially reminded me of the Eiffel tower when i first saw just one of its "foot". I was absolutely and totally in awe.
the Flyer adds new spice to our lackluster skyline.
I like it.

Close to you
A friend left a CD in the car.
Now its left a song in my head...
Close to youby Olivia Ong
Why do birds suddenly appear,
Everytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be,
Close to you......
Why do stars fall down from the sky,
Everytime you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be,
close to you.........
On the day that you were born the angels got together,
And decided to create a dream come true,
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
And golden starlight in your eyes of blue...
That is why, all the boys [or: girls] in town,
Follow you, all around,
Just like me, they long to be,
Close to you.......

Hisashiburi (its been awhile..)
How time flies. With a blink of an eye, another year has passed. Many things have changed over this year.. and yet sometimes it seems nothing has changed at all.
Has my search for a direction only begun, or am I lost, impatient and tired.
The sun will rise again tomorrow, just as sure as the sun will set, to rise again the next day. Life goes on.

Time Flies...
What will you know..
It has already been say... half a year since my last post. How time flies.
Moving into a new job, with many different new challenges, struggles, frustrations, sadness and stress. At times they seem unbearable. However, as cliche as it sounds.. if it doesn't kill you, it indeed will make you stronger.
But as all things go.. there is a catch to it.
It must not kill you first.
Keep in touch.

Overdue Trip
Hello from Cochrane Street, Hong Kong!!!
Finally! I'm finally on my long overdue trip which has been brought forward.
Long story, another time perhaps.
Bought tickets last wed.
Flew to Guangzhou to visit my sis last sat.
Took a 2 hour train backwards @_@ to Kowloon, Hong Kong this thursday.
Sitting in a smoothies cafe in the mids of chaotic Hong Kong typing this entry.
Btw, the smoothies cost twice my dinner (which consist of wanton noodles and a plate of oyster sauce vegi). Not overpriced smoothie, but cheap dinner :)
but stuff here CANNOT compare with the stuff in Guangzhou.
Dirt dirt cheap! Food, clothings... NO WONDER the states having an issue with the textiles. Even I'm tempted to buy a truckload to bring home to sell.
Anyway, back to the trip. Was in search of Lan Kwai Fong, MS equivalent of Singapore, when i stumbled onto this smoothies place by the side of the slope with a zillion steps. Ok, fine, i named it that. But its REALLY steep and loooooong. So how can I resist taking a break here and surf a little before i continue in search for the myterious Lan Kwai Fong.
Train back to Guangzhou this sunday evening.
Hangout and attack the wholesale market at Guangzhou one last time before flying back on monday night.
Would touch down next tuesday morning, 3.55am
and back to work next wednesday.
Over and out.

. . .
I smsed:
"Any plans tonight? If not wanna catch a movie or dinner?"
Reply from my friend:
"Hello! Am home, just idling lazily while using my special willpower, will-ing my housework to do themselves. It should be working, else I'll be doing it in oh, another 5 hours or so after I'm done procrastinating, but that's not likely, because my will-power will work."

Live Life
If there is something we dont like about the life we are living now, then maybe we need to make a change.
Do something about it.
Do something different.
Fight for it!
Life is just too short to wait...

National Security
Attention!
I say, Attention ladies and gentlemen.
This is a matter of national security.
This country is no longer safe!!
It is unsafe I tell you! Regardless of what our leaders say.
It is SO unsafe these days that citizens can no longer attend their friend's house-warming, without having their shoes stolen! Thats right, SHOES! Shocking isnt it!
Was at my friend house-warming last sat... and I left my brand new nike sneakers outside with the doors closed. Since they had the air-condition switched on. When we were leaving, to our horror, we found 3 pairs of our shoes and a pair of socks were GONE! Including mine! My precious white nike sneakers with a green Swoosh! is GONE!!! I got it for less than a month! And love it to bits! Gone! T_T
Shoe Thief!
They should be dragged out into the streets and be SHOT with camel dung! Yes! filthy
camel dung infested with flies of a thousand pigs! Ha! Justice!
There is just no justice.
But determined not to let this unfortunate event spoile my precious weekend, i marched straight to Queensway and bought ANOTHER pair! so... to wear this pair of sneakers, I had to spend $212!!! -__-""
Its amazing how such things still happen. I never thought, never heard nor experienced such things happening... at least until now. Let this be a reminder to us all. Our peaceful country isnt that safe anymore. Never take anything for granted.
On hindsight:
The funny thing is that 3 pairs of shoes... and a pair of socks were stolen. A pair of socks from my friend's SAF running shoes were stolen. But the shoe remains.....
There is a lesson to be learnt here... SAF shoes are REALLY good stuff!
Its Anti-Theft!

Hair = Trouble/Worry
I cannot believe this! I JUST cannot believe this!
EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!
I cant believe they can actually mess it up!!!
I tell them TRIM.
I show them a PICTURE.
and they can STILL.....
.....SHAVE OFF ALL MY HAIR!!!
Besides the little bush they left on the top of my head. -_-""""
ARRGGGgG!!!!!!
*Pull hair*!!!
OOps! i forgot.. i HAVE no hair anymore!
I've been keeping my mane for sooo long... and guess what?
Gone in 60 seconds....
I have changed hairdresser to hairdresser.. and yet, THIS happens.
I guess i have NEVER been satisfied with a haircut.... ever!
Except for the time I spent S$60 to cut my hair in Tokyo, Shibuya. Its glory lasted for all 4 months... till I had to cut it because of all the split ends.
To make matters worse, my colleague mentioned that my hair resembles that of a butch's.
Or.. did she mean to imply i look like one now..-_-"""""
ArrgGggGGhHHHHH!!!!!!!
I think i can permanently leave my blog's title as "Mane is growing"

Merchant's Fondue
FONDUE.
I had my BEST fondue at Merchant Court Hotel's Buffet dinner last Saturday. Oh man! The CHOCOLATE! For the first time in all my fondue experiences, I have finally tasted the REAL thing. The chocolate is really rich, thick, sweet at first, but with a touch of bitterness at the end. Hmmmm.....
Its not diluted and watered down like most of the those cheapo ones I've tasted. And! Its a chocolate fountain fondue. Its LITERALLY a chocolate fountain! Gasp!!!! My mouth is watering as I type!
Then you don't dip it with fruits. No no no...I have always felt fruits never go well with chocolate (besides banana. Although some, mainly women, says strawberry goes well with chocolate. But I disagree.) Marshmallow! Soft and tender, coated with a thick layer of ooozing chocolate.. and as your teeth sinks into it's tenderness, the chocolate flows across your lips. Your tongue gets swarmed with the taste of sweetness mixed with bitterness, sending chills down your spine.....
Hmmmmm HMmmmmm Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Hmmhmmmm HMmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!
And their Durian paste! GASP!!!!
Its amazingly GOOD!
Slurp!!
Its just like real Durian. Blended. Its REAL Durians blended. Although, I must admit, if it was a tad bit thicker, it would have been perfect! The paste was a little to watery... Pity. PITY I didn't have enough room in my stomach to finish it ALL! Muahaha!!!
Just these two dishes alone was enough to get me to pay for dinner :)
And its not too expensive. S$29+++ but with American express we got 15% off! So I just pay 29 bucks! Whoohoo!
CHOCOLATE FONDUE!!!! DURIAN PASTE!!!!
YUMM!
And no... I dont get paid to write this.

Working Dayz
Today is thursday! and after thursday comes friday. and friday is the day before the weekend. I like thursday. :)
Dispite the widely percieved moody mondays, I would have to disagree.
To me..
Monday is a motivating day. After a weekend of rest, I come back to work usually fully energized (or dead tired) and get ready to tackle new challenges ahead. Much like a new born, with all the promises in the world to look forward to.
Tuesday is a tough day. Energy restored from the previous weekend has totally and utterly been drained DRY...and its still soooooo far from the weekend. I find tuesday blues, the true bluez.
Wednesday is a slightly better day. Because i know after today, i will already be hald way through the week.
On Thursday, my mood picks up. Its almost Friday. Like the dusk, the HOT glaring sun loses its sting, and gets ready to set below the horizon.
And finally, comes Friday. This is a day which needs no introduction. High spirits, cheery smiles on everyone's faces :)
So you see... it is working life isnt that bad. Out of 1 week, there are 2 days of Heaven (Weekends), 2 days of high spirits (Thurs & Fri), 2 days of promise (Mon and Wed) and only one day of hell (Tues). Tuesday is our true enemy... not monday. Monday has just been misunderstood all these while.
Of course... unless you need to work on saturday. Then thats a different story altogether.

Diagnosis
Just paid a visit to the doctors.
Still having slight lingering headache and a funny feeling and feeling slightly retarded..... although i am sure some will argue that i have always been... but we leave that debate to another day. So i decided to be on the safe side and visited my company doctor.
The doc said the first 24 hours is critical. As long as there is
-No severe headache
-No vomiting.
-No blurred vision.
-No problems with balancing.
-No sagging of facial muscles.
Then i would probably live...
Although she did suggest maybe i would like to trim my brows, have a face lift, some botox injection, nose job, chin job (you know what they say, Chin is the new nose)... -_-"
Well, lame jokes aside...
Still having a tight feeling around my head and the lingering headache still stays. I guess all i can do now is to get more rest, and stay out of accidents. Tough. Apparently, I seem to lure them. ... like a black hole......@_@

Concussion
I literally walked into a signboard this morning. Was rushing to the busstop... when i saw a bush in the way.. so i dodged it.. and walked straight into the hidden signpost! PANG!!!! the signpost was still shaking when i looked up at it in shock..
After the impact, OBVIOUSLY i was in a state of shock. Half my face went numb for a few minutes. I had a 3 inch long cut on my forehead... luckily, no bleeding. After that... i felt a headache at the lower back of my head... near the neck... alll day long.. even till now.. almost 15 hours after the incident. I hope i'm alright... sigh...
As i heard... concussions can cause DEATH... -_-""
SO! If anything DOES happen to me...
i want a few things to be known...
1) My family to know that i love them greatly and dearly... although i never show it.
2) My manga to be burried with me! hahaaha!
3) All my (limited) savings to go to my niece... to fund for her.. erm... primary school education? .... hmm... maybe just for HALF of her primary school education. ahhaa

Convocation... again ~ Finally
Last Wed, I attended my convocation ceremony.. for the second time. Finally.
After almost 3 years of struggling, lazing and vexing, I have finally ended that phase in my life. Its been sooo long since the actual completion and the convocation, that i dont think i enjoyed the full impact of graduating. Just like when we are clearing our leave before we collect our pink IC after NS. Just that my delay is 1 year long.
But at the end of the ceremony, when all the newly graduates rushed out of the congested Hall, in the mids of the chaos, rush, falling balloons, i turn back and look at everything... the people, the research, the exams, the lifeless-ness and the mess. I thought to myself, I am glad is it over.
At that point in time, the word "Closure" came to mind. Closure indeed. I have to move on with life. And not let this part of my life hinder me.
Like a book, turned to a fresh new page. Blank, and full of promises of what is yet to be. Full of hope and uncertainties. But one this is certain, the book is getting thinner and there is no turning back in this book titled.....
LIFE.
After almost 3 years of struggling, lazing and vexing, I have finally ended that phase in my life. Its been sooo long since the actual completion and the convocation, that i dont think i enjoyed the full impact of graduating. Just like when we are clearing our leave before we collect our pink IC after NS. Just that my delay is 1 year long.

The Decision
It has been decided! and bought!
After much lamenting, I have finally discovered my secret desire and hidden liking for................
THE GREEN ONE!
SNA 699P1
Guys, thanks for your kind offer of opinion. The winner of the votes is actually.... SDA 625 (Red one), with a landslide victory. It indeed has a nicer watch face and more color contrast, thus more fetching. However, when I tried it on at the shop, I realised it doesnt go well with office shirt. Too sporty.
The SNA 699P1 (Green one) is more classy and goes better with office wear. And.. i just cant shake this attraction to the greeeennn! The Red one looks better, thats an undisputed opinon by many, even myself. But i guess deep down inside... subconsciously, i like the green. Hmmm..... i cant believe i just wrote 2 WHOLE paragraphs on the justification of getting my watch. I must REALLY be very bored.
