Long Time No See

It's been quite awhile since

I last wrote something here

*

Life has been quite hectic for me since

I have lost many old hobbies I used to enjoy

*

Today I am very free…

and without any burden or pressure

Because my next activity is next Monday

I got the whole long weekend to myself

*

One of the hobbies I have lost

is appreciating songs

and today I actually

found many long lost memories

*

Firstly, re-listening to the

HK talk show 笑談廣東話

It's so funny that I found myself

laughing alone

in front of the computer again

*

And the good news is I found

the complete set on YouTube

would be so easy to listen now

*

Chatting with my best listener, Shun…

I told him nowadays I think

I have fallen for Jam Hsiao

*

I have not fallen crazy for

any artist since very long time ago

The last one is Khalil Fong

Yup… Khalil Fong

*

That reminded me that

I still have this blog

I used to talk about things I like here

It's like re-discovering an Utopia

That feels really great

*

Life for the past few months

is quite challenging for me

I don't want to talk bout it here

Here is a place strictly reserved for

joyful and interesting things

*

To thank Shun for the sudden inspiration

in the middle of our chat

I grant him the right to

view this hidden Utopia

*

I have never ever shown this blog to anyone

So he is my first visitor

*

These few days I gonna keep myself busy with

listening to songs, watching drama

*

And most importantly

I will start blogging again

*

The long lost excitement…

finally returning to me

*

I shall not complain about

being all alone on new year eve

I assume this is the best present

I receive before 2009

*

I shall sum up this blog

With this song called

Long Time No See by SoftHard

*

Wow another long abandoned treasure

from my favorite album

I got the limited edition version at home

*

It's such a good feeling to

get in touch with the past again

*

Gone with the Wind

Just finish reading this book

Quite interesting…

background is the American Civil War

*

But the only thing is it's slightly long

It took me 2 weeks plus to finish the novel

But imagine the writer using

10 years to complete it

should pay her tribute for her great effort

*

I think is very appropriate for the writer to

Make Scarlett the protagonist in the story

Her characters portrayed are so real

*

And at certain points

I thought I share some similarities with her

Head-strong, arrogant, unforgiving, jealous…

*

The other characters in the novel

are quite real and impressive as well.

*

The love story part is so so long…

Supposed Scarlet gets the chance

to marry Ashley

but she married Charles

out of fury for people

who have been gossiping about her

*

two months later

she found herself a pregnant widow

gave birth to a son

*

then she escaped from the war scenes

with the help of Rhett

a rough man, known to be a rogue

*

after the war

she was trying to rebuild her home

out of desperation for money to pay tax

she marries her sister's fiancé, Frank

takes control of his business

*

her business tactics makes her

an unpopular figure

then Frank is tragically killed by KKK

*

Remorseful after Frank's death

Scarlett marries Rhett

who is aware of her passion for Ashley

but hopes that one day

she will come to love him instead

*

Scarlett eventually comes to

realize that she does love Rhett

but only after the couple

has been through so much that

Rhett has fallen out of love with her

*

so she never really meet a true soul mate

she married thrice

all three with the man she doesn’t loves

ultimately when she came to

realize her mistake

it was already too late

*

so…

is it true that

in our life time

we will only meet that particular one once

and if you miss that only chance

you will miss it forever

*

or…

if we have missed the previous one

we should forget about him/her

and learn to receive another new person

*

love is…

a funny little game

*  

Internal Affairs 無間道

Today I finally finish watching

3 Internal Affairs movies

It took me 1 years plus

*

I am not a big movie fan,

not going after those

latest movies in the cinema

*

The desire to watch a movie always

comes all of a sudden

*

The main attraction for the movie is

My favorite actors,

Tony Leung and Shawn Yue.

*

And it is so so awesome that

they were playing as

1 character in the movie

*

After finishing the third movie

I had to go through the first

and second movies again

to understand the storyline better

*

The story is still intriguing

I think I like this movie…

And there were a few very impressive scenes

Such as the scene when Ah Hao died

and discovered Yan's identity

*

But the only thing is that

Yan didn't deserve to die

And his death was not

as significant and impressive

being shot by a supporting character

*

Crazy bout Khalil Fong

Since Khalil didn't win anything for the GMA

feel that I have the need to

sooth my mood    

*

Browsed his official site

for the first time in my life

then his fan club

his blog

Hk fans club

*

while, he is not those

dashing handsome-looking guy

*

But he is definitely an attractive guy

and talented too

the cute soul boy

*

The Metamorphosis by Frank Kafka

Last week I was reading this book,

The Meta… (forget bout the spelling)

*

it started off in a very typical novel-like setting

about a guy named Gregor

who refused to wake up from work

*

He has got some family debt

and work is really torturous for him

*

Suddenly he found his own body

was transformed into a bug

*

So he thought it was a dream

and tried to get some sleep

But it was real

*

From this point onwards

I thought this story sounds a little ridiculous

Then the story goes on to illustrate

how miserable his life is as a bug

*

No one in the family is

bothered to care for him

He is treated like a monster and

was locked up in his room

*

The most intolerably part is

his father threw an apple on him

to chase him back into his room

He got terribly hurt

*

Since he is the financial support for the family,

His parents and sister

need to be independent now

and they too have to work in order to survive

*

Since they are busy with their own work

they hate Gregor more and more

they even think of getting rid of him

*

Finally he died

the family didn't mourn for him.

instead they feel as if

a burden is relieved from them

and go out for a walk

*

Arrgh, what a tragic story

*

So….

The conclusion is life is a sad journey

which is full of struggle

Support from others is important,

especially your own family

*

For Gregor

his struggle is not worthwhile

since his family is not showing any appreciation

*

Problems can be settled

if a family is standing together

But if there is no love

then it would be a little tough

*   

Poor Gregor

all along he has been alone in his suffering

*

Sudden Point of Emptiness

1st of July, what a day for me

It's really been quite awhile

since I blogged here

*

First of all,

I need to explain my whereabouts

during this 6 months

*

The last time I blogged

I was still in room G3-03 of Inti-UC hostel   

I am even not too sure whether

the room number is the right one

*   

For the past six months

I been working like a dog

My 1st ever job started on the 15th of Dec

It only lasted for a short 1.5 months

So… there was not a happy ending

Then I took a CNY break

*

15th of Feb, I went for an interview

On the 16th

I immediately attended for

my second job at a pharmacy in Melaka

*

Yesterday was my last day there

It has been a great experience

Lots of new stuff to learn and

great colleagues too

*

Actually there are supposed to be

many new experiences to be shared here

But since I worked from 9am to 7.30pm

I was already sleeping like a log by 9.30pm

*

This was the main reason why

I have gained some weight too

on top of new knowledge

*

For the next 2 weeks,

I guess I will be spending

most of my time here

*

Friends have already left for their studies

So I am all alone

preparing for a new life ahead

I am kinda in a dilemma now

*

The pharmacy and the people

that i still think about a lot

But of course I look forward to

a new life at NUS soon

*

So between leaving an old familiar place

and heading for a new environment

I am not too sure

what my feeling is now

*

Thank you to all the people

i met during the part-time job

Shall I list them all out?

*

My headmaster and mistress,

Mr and Mrs Loh

My monitor, Kak CT

My good buddy, Mei Yen

My swimming friend, Amie

My caring kak Shikin

And the new colleague, Hong

Last but not least,

the brand promoters

who are willing to teach and share

*
