Busy as a Bee can Be, i tell ya

it has been busy busy busy... choir practice has been going pretty well - i've realised i may not have the perfect vocals, but i can certainly sing in a choir. and the alto part is really quite interesting - cos we're never really on the melody (unlike the sopranos who have such an easy job), so it's interesting to hear the harmonising.... puts years of ABRSM theory into practice.

belly dancing has stopped abruptly because someone from immigration decided that the teacher needed a work permit to teach the class - even though all proceeds go to charity and she doesn't pocket anything?!

Hao-e and i have been taking turns getting sick. slept the whole long weekend away. the weather's not helping - it suddenly turned pretty cold this last few days. haven't turned the a/c on in the car - it was cool enough outside. just got nin jiom pei par gao from miles market and have been diligently taking it, but it hasn't helped much either. strepsils as well. ah well.
  • friend SY in NZ has just bought a huge house and 2 honda fits - one pink and one blue! congrats on new job, everything and i really really dig your home.
  • B just came back from Silk Road - i want to go there as well!
  • Colleagues' babies have turned one! (that was quick!) Happy Birthday Chloe and Clare!
  • R is considering getting an emba - i just realised there's such a thing vs the normal mba thing.
  • Sister is going to Phuket end of month!
  • Happy birthday to Godma! and enjoy tai-tai-dom in London!
  • 2 weeks left to Boston trip! Yay!

Jay Chou

Blasting Jay Chou into my ears with my broken ear-phones.. hee. I still love him so much! one of those singers whose songs cause my body to move and groove to the rhythm. just feel like dancing. my interest in mr chou waned though in recent months due to his new gf. i mean she's an improvement over jolin but i still think she's a bit ah... how shall i put it, not very nice. somehow i feel she's mean. not as guai and angelic as she looks. still have a soft spot for ppl who are nice. why can't ppl be nice? i'm trying to be nice. (my new mantra - " Be nice ") haha. i mean people who know me from before know i'm quite harsh and critical and unforgiving. so nice has got be a NEW mantra for me. Next thing you know, i'll be meditating in a nunnery atop a mountain with a thousand steps cut into it. every morning i'll be climbing down those steps to fetch a pail of water... and jack and i will fall down the hill with the pail and all... yikes, ...

Shujun's Birthday!!

Seems like yesterday when the new year 2005 started.. now it's May, and we've celebrated Beek's, Lihui's and Wanping's birthdays. Time seems to be passing too fast for birthdays for i refuse to admit that i'm older [again], yet it passes too slowly when i'm sad or down. Ah well, life isn't a box a chocolates. nor a piece of cake. it's full of cakes! birthday cakes especially. in 2 days, one of my best mates will be turning 24. it's been more than a decade, us knowing each other from sec sch days. haha! I just want you to know that you'll always going to be my lap cheong. my very cute friend who can sing "one night in Beijing" in both guy and gal's voices and break the record too! my ultra loyal friend who stuck by me all these years, listening to my whining and complaints. i have a lot of respect for ppl who can stand my nonsense, cos well, i'm not an easy person to like.. ask my buddies they'll tell you. [better still, ...

it's funny how you learn things about yourself - your likes and dislikes - every single day. here's a list of dislikes: eager beavers people who fake an accent people who talk more than they do people who claim credit when they've done nothing (oh! old debts) back-stabbers gossipers (is there such a word?) that stir up trouble like there ain't enough of that already?! inconsiderate people .... more to come, i just know it is it too much to ask to have decent people around? there's a chinese saying, that even on the same hand the fingers are of different lengths. but is it really impossible to have everyone cross a certain threshold of decency and not stick out like a sore thumb? i've often wondered why some 40 year olds act the way they do - as if they hate the whole world. i think i'm in danger of being that sort of 40 year old as the list gets longer, and i meet more obnoxious people. argh. (*_*)
