more pictures

ok, let's start from this one...

this was taken becos it was nice, passerbyswill not understand, the fact that they made comments goes to show how shallow they have been. i dun deny i used to be shallow too, until now with camera and photos, it opened up my eyes and mind to beauty, to nature.

and this was taken during one of the sunset, at punggol, the new housing estate. it was told to me that this is a good scenery to capture as the sun cast shadows on the flat, but i think i 'screwed' the beauty of the scenery

then brought students out on a heritage trail, one of the pics of Haji Fatimah Mosque. according to the guide, this tower was leaning and it's like the mini leaning tower of pisa in singapore.

equation

someone told me 1+1=2 and 1+1=11. i will come up with a 3rd one, 1+1=1.

seems like 1+1=2 may not happen in the near future.

1+1=11, it seems like it, but it never really happen, in reality, it can never be 11. i never have the best of both worlds, becos i'm losing either one of them. last evening was the devastation part where reality sinks in. on one hand, the wrath was incurred, on the other hand, princess has chosen not to return to her kingdom despite the queen's attempt to get her back. No, princess didn't even give queen a chance to talk, the princess juz cried, you had to let her go to give her happiness. standing in the middle of the fountain at bugis, with so many people ard you, u juz feel so alone and the reality slowly but surely sinks in. there was never the best of both worlds, i was juz a fool as well. hence, 1+1=11 has been proven wrong.

1+1=1.... think this is more likely now. the time to decide between 11 and 1 seems to be getting nearer. that's why i say 1+1=1. anyway, at this point of time, i've lose my inspiration for blogging, becos i was distracted with duties and responsibilities. damn it.

anyway, before i end, while 1+1=1 seems to be the equation now, we should also work towards proving 1+1=2.
28th October

It has been 4 months since 28th June. remember himer? himer should be abt 24 weeks.

anyway, that's not my point for this posting...

it was raining so heavily at night. i dun deny the effects of a storm and the bright sky after the storm, depends on wat angle u wat to look at.

my feelings is like the drizzle now. juz keeps on pattering inside my heart, not heavy pattering, light pattering, making the whole mood so gloomy and solomn.

i will never forgive myself for not giving her happiness when i could have it. just a thought, there will be many in your life whom u can give happiness when u could but didn't. Are you also not going to forgive yourself? anyway, juz for thoughts.... I REPEAT, juz for thoughts

some updates

so many days didn't update already.

1) i have more pictures i'm waiting to upload, akan datang

2) given this magic bean stalk to grow, cool product... have taken pictures also, will upload, akan datang

3) m&m have a computer of their own. they have been busy playing games on their pc for the past few days. juz some observations: marcus is very good at playing games, very agile, great co ordination skills. but have to limit him. mabel, not as good at playing, and not so sure, always asking for help from gor gor. but she's not as addicted as marcus.

4) yesterday afternoon was raining so heavily. the dark clouds came, or should i say black clouds, it was like hurricane coming, the wind was very strong. the lightening and thunder was frightening, juz like the ones shown in 'War of the Worlds'. when the rain comes, it was so heavy that even if u r standing in the shelther, u would still be wet from head to toes. imagine how strong the wind is, a closed window can be blown open by the wind. as usual, many trees around sg was uprooted, even very big trees. a mini hurricane?

but wat really caught me was after the rain. the sky after the rain was simply stunning. the sky is so blue, the clouds were so fluffy and white, it makes a good picture. i really understood the chinese saying of a clear sky after the storm. it juz suddenly came to me that yah, sometimes in life, we may be weathering the worst storm of our life, but u can be assure that after the storm, the sky will be brighter. i guess it takes the storm for me to appreciate the blue sky which comes afterwards. i never have so much appreciation for the nature, but yesterday, i was juz in awe.

5) NEVER EVER TRY TO TAKE OUT YOUR KEYS FROM YOUR BAG/POCKET WHILE WALKING OUT OF THE LIFT!

yesterday i was juz doing that, never did i expect that i would drop the key and it landed THROUGH that little gap between the door and the lift, if u know wat i'm saying. i was like, 'oh shit, there goes the key.'

but funny, i wasn't really upset, i juz went to find the extra keys that i had. guess i was distracted with my thinking which was why i wasn't paying attention to wat i'm doing. so pls learn from my mistake. luckily i only lose my house keys, the rest of the keys are in separate bunches.

nvm, the sky will be brighter after the storm.

today is juz a bad day, things were juz not as smooth. i really dunno wat else is there to say. but all the things that happen today, i juz realise one thing:

you cannot please everybody

i hate myself, i hate my life

sorry

this has to drag on becos of my indecisiveness, becos of my insensitivity. i dun want to wear u out, u are right, one day it will happen, this road will either come to an end or start a brand new journey.

how to measure if i'm ready or not? perhaps u know when i'm ready or not ready, honestly i dunno. i can't even tell the difference now, if i'm ready or not.

why? last week was fine, why is this week like that?
the pics are too big

sorry, as said, i didn't do the editing and it turned out that the pictures are too big. not using my pc, so didn't want to linger too long on d's laptop. well, looking at things from the positive side, the pics are BIG, u can scrutinise mabel and marcus carefully.

fresh flowers

juz a thought.. fresh flowers are very nice when fresh, and it always gives the lady a surprise and bring smiles to her when she receive ones....

but then after a few days, at the most a week... the flowers die... it's kind of sad, then u try to salvage watever u can.... it's kind of sad to see such nice things withered away... and there is nothing u can do...

well, u can say hang the flowers upside down, but not all flowers are able to do that..... makes me think and relate flowers to a person's life....

so nice when young, fresh, wanted, admired by people.... but as u grow older and wither, if u dun take care of yourself, u become unwanted, not nice, people squirm to look at u... no wonder so many older woman, esp in the West, are going for plastic surgery when they reach a certain age.... (juz realise, have to be careful not to mention names, as now blogging can also be sued if u say the wrong thing on ur blog)

that brings me to another point... why must we always be politically correct? at work place, u must know wat to say and wat not to say, now blogging also.... must be careful of wat u say... why is it that people (again, cannot refer to a specific noun, lest i be sued) like to restrain people? well, i do understand that there must be some kind of laws, rules and regulations... but... blogging was initially supposed to be a platform where people can say about wat they feel....

u can say people misuse the platform, but i seriously dun think it was that serious to be called up to court... anyway, it has always been like that. rules after rules so that people can conform to a certain mould, and if u dun conform, they come out wif more rules....

sometimes, people say i spoil my children by letting them do watever they want... well, now u know why.... becos i feel that when they grow up, they will restrained by so many rules... it's not that i totally spoil them... i juz let them sleep at the time they want to sleep, no forcing of 9pm, go and sleep now.. if they dun like to go to church, then dun go. if they dun like to eat, wants to eat bread for dinner, let them be, who says that we cannot eat kaya toast for dinner? who says that kaya toast is only for breakfast? as long as they eat.

another week is gone

last week was crazy, this week is even more crazy, becos the deadline for so many things is 7th Oct. well, i'll juz take one day at a time...

know something, while i'm blogging this post, i'm actually waiting in queue to print worksheets on the risograph. and i juz finish my fried bee hoon, doing all 3 at the same time. my colleague who is printing now is lamenting that the risograph is not fast enuf for us... haha, poor risograph.

anyway, last nite, sis treated us to marina south bbq as her b-day was this coming Thursday. Happy birthday, sister! thanks for the treat.

had an observation last nite, we all know the thing is $12 per adult, then there were many frens from Malaysia and China who was there eating. Last nite was more of family, not so much of young people. if it were a Fri or Sat, i bet there are a lot of young people.

ok, my turn to use the risograph, had to stop... otherwise other people jump queue.
