24

another year goes by just like that -snaps fingers- and another birthday has passed.. 25th October 1979, just another child was born..24 years later, he is here writing this blog.. speaking of this blog, i've abandoned it for 4 months! 4 long months of nothingness..and though the time that has passed may be long, seriously speaking nothing has happened for me..well, enough for me to want to share with the whole world anyway! =P


24 years old..there're so many things i want to accomplish..so many things that are waiting to be done..so many places i want to visit and so many more people i have yet to meet..i know i'm supposed to feel old but i don't..

i have this colleague who's already 37 and he's always still bubbling with enthusiasm everyday..in a way, he inspires me..though i've always maintained that age is not a problem as long as we are young at heart..having a living example serves only to inspire me more..

lastly, i would like to personally thank a few people for getting me through the past two days..these are friends who have at some time or another made me feel more special than i think i deserve to feel..(in order of appearance!!) they are cheryl (my cute and bubbly nuer who doesn't seem to age for the 6-7 years we've known each other!), karen (my dear..thanks for all that extra effort..i know that you've always been trying..), yaling (my bud!!), xinyi (my spw nuer! and i put you as xinyi this time! =P and i must mention that she is one of the rare ones brave enough to buy me a cd..though she asked me first! haha..), kenneth (for the record, the FIRST person to wish me a happy birthday this year..bladdy kiasu! haha..a great friend to have around always until he zhong se qing you! =P), raymond (my darling monk..why do so many people hate him? he's so cute! =X), roland (thank goodness this guy has decided to stop hugging me! though i do kind of miss it! heh..), jessica (the girl who took a cab alllllll the way from jurong west to let us see her eat!), aileen (thanks for dinner my best friend! =) though you ended up partnering with karen to bully me! grrr..) and lastly jingxian (for remembering what i said and sending me the only birthday card i received through post! that's very sweet of you! =)). not forgetting the rest who sent me sms or greetings through icq..thank you as well..

stay adored y'all! cheers!

the rainbow connection.. ... - sarah mclachlan

who said that every wish will be heard and answered
i wished on the morning star
somebody followed and someone believed it
look what it's done so far

what's so amazing that keeps us stargazing
what do we think we might see
someday we'll find it the rainbow connection
the lovers, the dreamers and me.. ...

disappointment cannot be measured.. ...

out of time.. - blur

where's the love song to set us free
too many people down
everything turning the wrong way round
and i don't know what life would be
if we stop dreaming now
lord knows we'd never clear the clouds

and you've been so busy lately that you haven't found the time
to open up your mind
and watch the world spinning gently out of time

tell me i'm not dreaming
but are we out of time
we're out of time
out of time..

5 more days! aaaahh!!

sparkle me.. ... - buffseeds


"your eyes they always sparkle me with love... - buffseeds"

Poetry In Motion..quite literally..

I have this habit..lots of poetry come to me when i'm outside - whether it's on the bus, driving or just walking around..and it's really funny that these are usually the best lines and ideas..like the other day when i was on the bus and i was keying this into my handphone..

greener pastures, finer moments
prettier women, sinful temptations
naked bodies, not yet twenty
not yet married, not yet attached
incredible bed skills, but not a perfect match..

and i wasn't even sitting beside a pretty girl! but the sad thing is..i usually won't go on to complete them either because the next parts will sound weird or i'll be too lazy to key it in my handphone or write it down and by the time i get home, i'll forget the lines..one i did go on to complete however is one regarding a rainy day at a news stand..i'm still trying to improve on it though so it won't be seen too soon! =P anyway, just the other day i came up with this at my office impromptu..or something like this!!

(something my friend said that ended with -ian)
chio bu bian ah lian (beautiful girl turns ah lian)
xiang ta nan sui mian (thinking of her, hard to sleep)
qi lai, bei nian nian (wake up, blanket sticky sticky)

don't you think it makes a perfect ah beng poem? but well, my chinese sucks so i'll leave it at that =P then again, i've "left it at that" for most of these sort of poetry..poetry in motion? yeah, running from my head..
