感想。。。

昨晚在《有福》播放的时候，看见了一段非常感人的一幕，使得我心深处的心情开始澎湃，泪水也不禁夺眶而落。。。并想在此笔下感触。。。

剧情描述的是一位即将输给疾病的抗癌妻子。的确生老病死是难免。。。但为何生命是如此脆弱，这么不堪一击？

在世已24年，陪我走过这些日子的人不尽奇数，真正在心里留下脚步的也不少，当中白骨长埋的有两个。。。所以我很了解失去亲人或好友的痛苦。可恨市虎横行，夺走我身边的好友。。。心理的创伤，空虚，寂寞与无奈莫言语能形容，要等到何日才能被取代呢？笑逐渐变成敷衍的工具，强颜欢笑来掩盖心中的悲痛或失望。。。比较起来，对他人而言我经历不算多，但也非常了解死亡并非在我的掌握之中，可我始终放不下，也不愿去接受事实。

曾有朋友笑我重感情，我并没否认，也不觉得羞愧。。。每个人的观点都不同。我是个重亲情和友情的人，所以我非常珍惜我关心的人。对于他们，我用尽我全心，应为我不想有任何遗憾。。。了解我的朋友不多，知道我经历的人更寥寥可数。。。我为何对某些朋友如此好，缘分吧，没有人能了解，我也不想白费唇舌。。。我从莫要求他们试着去了解我，应为许多事是可欲不可求的，重要的是彼此珍惜这段友情并且快乐。

The days seems to get shorter as I become more and more lethargic... sleeping is mostly what I do now, napping whenever I can. Always seem so tired, no matter how much I sleep, it just seem like I could never recuperate from the nights of games weeks before. But still, I'm energetic as ever as long as I don't stay in the house... =Þ

Met Kelvin at Bishan Junction 8 in the afternoon, its been a long time since we met up. As we were both aimless in not knowing what to do, he drove us down to Pickles Cafe at Hotel Rendezvous to find Melvin who is suppose to be working there at that time. I had a Cookies n Cream Ice Blended (yummy... its really good considering its priced at $2.90). Had a short chat before he sent me home.

Hmm, today is Naruto Day, hee hee. Seems like its getting better and more exciting knowing that Sakura is now Tsunade's student... can't wait to see what happens to Sakura!

Initial D

Went to play badminton at Toa Payoh Indoor Stadium yesterday at 1100 hrs. This time round with Zhi Hong and his friends. Short game of 2 hours... din play much cos Zhi Hong keeps going back to his house (to and fro) several times to bring magazines... so that his other friend can take shots of the magazine's cover to be sold over the internet. Feel so cheated that he never tell us before hand... lol.

Ohh.. collected my graduation year book and convocation gown at NTU today. Looks really crappy wearing the motarboard. Hope it will be better on the day of Convocation, hee hee. Went to watch movie with Ivan after having lunch at Jurong Point Food Court. We checked the timing of the movie "Initial D" at Jurong Point GV's AXN Station (but did not buy any tickets), by the time we reach Plaze Singapura, most of the tickets were sold out... leaving only the front row seats. =S However, we still managed to catch the movie at Toa Payoh's Entertainment Complex at 1715 hrs... Cool. =Þ

Came home and found 2 cats in my house... hee hee, cos my sister is helping her friend to "baby-sit" them. Her friend's housemate and her friend seems to have some argument and is not convenient to look after the cats...

Back to 1845

Did not went out, instead I was tidying up my room and came across my collection of MRT cards, phonecards and stamps. Used to be an avid collector of such stuffs till I went broke... lol. (Will continue this hobby again when I'm financially independent)

Came upon this limited edition treasure (with only 10 000 copies) that I bought exactly 10 years ago in 1995... A reprint of the 1st release of The Straits Times. It was a commemorative issue to celebrate 150 years of publications of The Straits Times. Back then, it was called "Straits Times and Singapore Journal of Commerce". Did a partial scan of this weekly newspaper to share with you gers/guys. Did not perform a full scan of the newspaper as I did not wish to fold it... =)

"The first issue of The Straits Times peeled off the hand-press at Commercial Square on the morning of July 15 1845 priced at only half a Spanish dollar"

Recevied a call from a friend this morning... asking me why my blog is all about games. lol. But basically, that's the only activity that I have been doing mostly. =Þ Furthermore, this slacking lifestyle will not be possible once I've start working... so must enjoy while I can. Hmm, maybe I'll go take a walk in the city later if the weather is fine.

Going to play badminton again tomorrow at Toa Payoh Stadium... this time round with 1 of my secondary school friend and a few NUS people. Anyone interested feel free to join us.

Sports Event

Date: 28 June 2005

Time: 1100 hrs

Venue: Toa Payoh Indoor Stadium

5 v 5

Its 0315 hrs midnight and I'm typing a post about yesterday (Sunday) events.

Woke up around early afternoon again, played some games and left home to meet Melvin and gang at Parklane to play DotA. Supposedly to meet at 1730 hrs, but we left for Tekka Mall located at Little India at around 1830 hrs after having dinner at Macs. There's a Lan shop (MechMaster) where the charge for each pc terminal is only $1.50 per hour. There's a total of 10 of us... (Played with them a few times at home thru LAN, but this is the 1st time meeting them to play outside). Its so much fun playing with people you know and we played 5 v 5. Ha ha...

However... as we started playing, we found the game too laggy. We then leave the place and head back to Parklane to play. We played for less than 10 mins and was charged around $0.75... so lame. Only managed to play 2 games at Parklane cos we started at 2015 hrs and by the time the 2 games ended, its around 2245 hrs and most of them had to leave. Its great as I got to know more people and I definitely learn alot about DotA from some of them! =)

Played another 2 games of DotA when I reached home...(Jio by Wen Hao this time round) Haiz, Wen Hao and Vincent going for reservists tomorrow... guess I can take a break from late night games and sleep early. lol

顺时针

Recommending a chinese song that I really liked. Beautiful melody with meaningful and touching lyrics.

Singer: 梁咏琪
Title: 顺时针

淋过雨的空气 疲倦了的伤心
静静收起的伞底 泪的痕迹渐渐退去
我一个人鼓起勇气 跟着时钟一格一格的前进
推开窗等待阳光 等待着清醒

我记忆里的童话 已经慢慢的溶化 爱不是这样
而你偷走我的时间 曾说过的誓言 你还在乎吗
我不想 孤单的坐在回忆里逞强 时间回不到最开始的地方
只想这样吹着风 慢慢顺时针遗忘

我一个人应该可以 想起爱过之前原来的自己
或许那样的天真我已经回不去

也许我懂得寂寞比相爱容易

我记忆里的童话 已经慢慢的溶化 爱不是这样
而你偷走我的时间 曾说过的誓言 你还在乎吗
我不想 孤单的坐在回忆里逞强 时间回不到最开始的地方
只想这样吹着风 慢慢顺时针遗忘

已经慢慢的溶化 爱不是这样
而你偷走我的时间 曾说过的誓言 你还在乎吗
我不想孤单的坐在回忆里逞强 时间回不到最开始的地方
只想这样吹着风 慢慢顺时针遗忘

等到明天继续放晴 几乎忘记下过了雨
爱在心底留的签名 总会慢慢退去

For Honor...

Haven't been doing anything unusual since yesterday. This period of my life is pretty much the routine of games, sleep and occasional jogging.

Had been playing a new game recently, introduced by my buddy... titled "Knights of Honor". The game is about Medieval War with battles and seiges in Europe and Middle East. The level of details and complexity is too much for me to describe in this posts (think I'm just lazy... lol), but its definitely interesting.

Seems complicated initially till I got the hang of the game.. the only thing that's beyond my control about the game is that I'm not able to control the offsprings of my kingdom. If there is no heir, I may pretty well lose my provinces to other nobility...

Anyway, back to conquer those lands... Hee hee. =Þ

Exhausted...

Adrenaline escalates as I tried to pawn the opponents... a battle of wits, teamwork and 'cheapness' at Defence of the Ancients. Haiz, still not pro enough... losing as much as the battles I've won. Clocked a ridiculous amount of hours playing DotA this morning. Have been playing since 1am yesterday night till this morning 9.30am without any sleep. Forced to stop only when I nose bled... with my body showing signs of enervation.

Slept throughout the rest of the day... trying to recuperate.

Went to Tiong Bahru Market for dinner. Hmm...Its been more than 2-3 years but seems like the renovation never started. Had a stroll at Tiong Bahru Plaza after my only meal for today and came across a comic shop selling this miniature Naruto Konoha Headband at S$4.90. 8pm... On the way back home, I alighted at Dhoby Ghaut to wait for a friend to knock off from work, and he treated me to a Tiramisu at Pickles Cafe... yummy =D

The fatigue starts to set in as I typed... and I can feel the weariness having its effects over me. Guess I'll stop here tonight, and yes, no game for me tonight.

Z z z ...

Homie...!

Met up with my buddy, Ivan today... one of the few whom I enjoy hanging out with the most. =Þ hee hee...

Did a deal of shopping today. We once agreed to go Queensway to get ourselves each a pair of shoes, but that dude just got 2 pairs yesterday...lol. We met at 12.30pm and had lunch at Subway (Suntec) and Cavana (Marina Square)... walked City Link, Suntec, Marina Square, Pennisular and Funan... Initially I had the idea of getting either a pair of sneakers or nike presto with outrageous colours, however, there wasn't much choices and none that I really fancy. But still, I found and bought one that I really like at Sole Central at Pennisular Plaza, a Nike Dunks... wahaha =)

Woo hoo... Initial D and War of The Worlds hitting the cinemas soon, definitely will catch this two!

Gathering of the Pigs

Had another mini gathering today, this time round with my JC buddies... Boon Cheong, Felicia and Tess. It was supposedly meant to be a short tea session, to meet up at our 老地方 (Long John Silver at Yishun's Golden Village)... a great hang-out place during our JC life. Met at 3pm and ended up going home around 8pm... lol. Reason being we accompanied boony to shop for an office bag... haha. Poor Tess had the intention of getting a bag too but wasn't successful in finding one to her liking. Its terrific to gather again yah? Let's do it more often. *Hee hee*... Oh, I actually bumped into quite a few friends too... people like Cecilia, Zhong Hao, Qing Jie and Edmund.

Recevied an email from a long lost friend today... someone whom I got to know while I was working as a part-timer at Hewlett Packard 7 years ago. Ha ha, its really unexpecting to hear from him, great that he still remember me! Best of all...he actually mailed to tell me he has become a father just recently and attached pics of his dear daughter. Yeah, your baby girls looks really cute (pic is only for me... sorry guys... ha ha). Congratulations yah...!!! =)

Btw, today happens to be Father's Day.. so I wished all the Dads (inclusive of my friend who has just become a father) a fantastic Happy Father's Day! =)

Primary school classmates after 13 years. =)

The First Chapter

Haiz...

Days of insomniac have driven me to desperation, it has been several days or weeks (2 to be exact) that I can't sleep at night and even during daytime... resulting in restlessness during the day. I guessed the cause for this symptom is the result of playing too much warcraft... Dota too much into wee hours of 4 - 5am.., totally screwed up my bio clock... haiz

Something worth mentioning in this post and probably the main reason that I start to blog.... I had a primary school class gathering earlier during the evening! We had a simple dinner at Marche (Heeren's), followed by a coffee session at Paragon. The turn up rate was excellent considering its our 1st gathering since we graduated from PSLE... Hmm, after 13 years!!! =)

Shux, its hard to jot down the topics, gossips and flashbacks that we twaddle throughout... and its really amazing how some of you all still remembered the minor details of happenings during then. Its fantastic to catch up with you gers/guys, exchanging contacts... and one thing for sure, its really great to know that you all are doing well. Really looking forward to the next class gathering.. Yeah! Sad thing is that I was "arrowed" to be the organiser for the next gathering.., (shall keep my fingers crossed... lol).

This is my first post since I first set up this account in July 2004... There are many thoughts and stuffs that I wish to write down, but my mind is not functoning properly right now... hee hee. Kinda sad that the first post started with a sad note. But at least I did something constructive by starting to blog. Well, things will get better I guess... =)
