Super duper long blog coz i did not have the time to blog the whole weekend... and so am cramming everything within one entry... time really flies. Guess the year 2005 proved to be a year of great changes with plenty of experiences that came along with it... There were upsides; experiences that changed the way i view things and downside;cases where i had to pick myself up and let the show continue... Well, this is one big subject area that they failed to teach in school entitled "Life" As what my GP tutor has taught me,"Life's lessons will present itself in different forms till mastered and learned." I guess i am still going through several chapters of this major lesson and am still making the same mistakes...
Was supposed to have a "powerpuff girls" reunion on thurs but the star of the show was suffering from jet lag... guess i would feel the same way if i had to travel on a plane on long distance flights twice within a short span of time. Anyway, still managed to meet up with another one of my friends who never fail me to make me laugh with his jokes and comments despite ths short period of time that we have known one another. More to come i hope? :)
In my younger days, i NEVER believed that platonic friendship could ever exist between a man and a woman.... However, when i started working, my greatest friends and companions were the men. Of course i am not implying that i have no close female friends(if not where did my powerpuffs come from, and not forgetting my pair of nus mates and jy kakis?:p), but somehow it is just different.. men make good listeners and most of all they tend to offer another perspective of things 8 months ago, when i was posted out of JY to BV,i was distraughted... My evileeest bro and my evil friend (you guys know who u are:p) spent the whole entire day with me telling me silly jokes and doing things that i enjoy doing just to make cheer me up and make me laugh... Another one of my colleague whom i have always held in high esteem offered me his ears, telling me to bear in mind that he only had one pair...haha! The thoughts of all these gestures never fails to bring on a smile on my face..:) Will share more when it the situation arises...
Steamboat on fri was fun and it just felt like good old days when the puffs got together.. Non-stop eating and gossiping... haha!But on the low side, all these would only last for another 20 days? :( It's amazing how despite our differences, we always have our common ground... For the benefit of those who are reading it and don't know about it, i enjoy singing but i am quite horrid at it... so i guess the karaoke rooms make my dream come true without being a public nuisance haha!Sang to my heart's content with mic and fen, not forgetting poor cheryl who so dislikes Jay Chou but have to bear with his "mumbling" coz the 3 of us love him to pieces :)
BBQ on sat also brings back plenty of memories....we used to have bbq on every single imaginable occasion; birthdays, every single public holidays or for no reason.. now.. things are just different. After fen left, nobody initiates this anymore as we are all busy with our own life.. and i hate to but have to admit certain things have changed.. Sometimes you really wonder how misunderstandings can destroy friendships... why can't all of us be more forthcoming about how we feel about certain issues.. If there are things that we dislike or find uncomfortable with, why can't we just voice it out.. frankly speaking, i find it quite tough to be honest about how i really feel too.. even to my buddies... Anyway, i want to visit Euroupe! Saw fen's pics and am so mesmorised by it!!!!!!! Sistine chapel, the louvre, the vatican city, eiffel tower .... However heard that venice is not as romantic as it is made out to be though.. haha!
Will write more about sch when the day ends...
