SAD SAD SAD....:(

This week started off at a bad note, a very bad note... Nothing to do with me, rather something that happened, totally irrelavent to me. Taiwaness actress/singer Hsu Wei Lun died on Sunday after a car accident. The news hit me bad, although I know nothing of this actress, but the strange feeling of sorrow hit me pretty bad. I only knew her from the many times I seen her on TV, on those Taiwan Variety Shows. When she first appeared on screen, I found this girl very unique, and really attracts me to keep watching the show. Her gentle and demure character touches me, and really gave me the very "honest" girl feel about her. I am not a person that will go after idol (at least for my age now), but somehow or rather, after this incident happened, the pinch within me made me realised that deep within me, this girl did play a role in influencing my life. Honestly, when I first saw her on TV, I kinda swore that my dream girl will be someone of that calibre, or even dreamed of how nice it would be if such girl would exist in Singapore, or even be dream of being her boyfriend (pretty funny the way I can let my imagination go at times). But with that said, I do miss her, knowing that I can no longer look forward to see her appear in dramas and variety shows saddens me. My condolences is with her family, her friends, her fans, may you all find strenght in life and lead a happy life ahead as she would like us to be. She is full of smiles when she was around, now that she is gone, we shall carry on her mission and bring smile to everyone here. MISS YOU WEI LUN... really do...

A tribute to this angel that have gone home....

CNY closing in...

Today this start of that well for me. Not sure if I got off the wrong side of bed, or something else, its just not right. Got myself a new hair wax yesterday, dun seem to be very strong. ARGH... I guess its most probably a bad hair day! argh..

Well enough on that, had a difficult time getting to office today, the road that I usually take to work is packed with people, all preparing for CNY, which is a couple of weeks away. So the usually empty street is swarming with, people mostly elderly, so their pace can be abit unbearable for someone that walks "with air in my hair" most of the time. But hey, with that slow pace, I got to feel that CNY is finally coming. Chinatown never fails to bring the festive mood for CNY up man. Its a must visit lor, everywhere selling new year goodies, waxed stuff, and all the nice deco which I used to be every enthu about when I was younger.

Yesterday, went out with my buddy herbert, to do some window shopping and scout out good deals to do some shopping. Was kinda looking forward to shopping in bugis village. However, the things don't seem to interest me that much, and with the overwhelming kids trend or rather teenage trend clothing on display, I seem somewhat outta place. Town is still the shopping heaven for me I suppose, thou its difficult to scout the best deals in town, but with a nose for sale, it will never take too long for me to smell a good deal. HAHAHA

Hmm, nothing really left to blog. Hair in a terrible shape, hopefully I can pull through this crisis soon....GROW GOD DAMN IT!!! hahaha okok abit over the edge for a moment. Alright pple, have a great week ahead. Cheers!

Hard to find!!!

Its really hard to find someone to have a good conversation with. By saying conversation, I mean sharing ideas, views on things and occasional crapping around. You really never know what you will get. Take for instance, yesterday as I was heading to town after dragonboat with Jayson. We had a conversation, the type that I haven't had for awhile and greatly missed, we talked about fashion trends to the different thinking of different part of the world. Not trying to act intelligent or any other meaning. Its just that all my conversation have been revolving around a certain type of topics. And having to move away and talk about something else really brings a whole new meaning about life.

Jayson shared with me a copy of his "work", or rather the magazine "Lexean" that his company works on. Was flipping through it, and found many interesting articles that caught my eyes. In particular, there is a few that I think I can share. Firstly, something about creative artist in Singapore VS the censorship board of Singapore government. It mention about the first question a creative team thinks when asked to come out with a play is "What can't I do?" By asking that question, its already taking away some of the creative privileges from them as they have already been ovewhelmed by fear of "offending" the government. The writer also add in very interesting pointers that got me very into the topic. Its strange how looking at things from another person's point of view can actually influence and change a persons thinking, or even get someone that never thought about the "problem" to start thinking.

Secondly, there is also an article that educate me on "loseing weight while snoozing" Yes losing weight while you are sleeping. We are not talking about long hours of sleeping so that u skip meal and lose weight here. Thats unhealthy actually thou you do lose weight using that method too.. its screws your ur system in the long run. But anyway, back to the topic, it talks about how much fat is burn while recovering, and repairing the damage done to your body while working out. Besides that, the amount of fat burned during this period is actually more then those you lose during workout. But hey, that doesn't mean you can stop working out altogether and just sleep your way to a slim and lean figure, it takes both method to get maximum effect.

Last but not least, every magazine is bound to have its fashion bit, and its the bit that I like best. However, this magazine is targetted at successful working class I suppose. Thus the fashion they portary are more to the higher end goods. But one thing I do like about the section, is that it actually teaches you how to dress, rather than show you the various nice clothes on those nice looking models. We have to admit, we don't have figures like models, so I guess its better to teach the people how to dress, rather than getting them to buy what the models are wearing, and think they look just as good in those than the models. GET A LIFE!!! like they say, "Give a man a fish, he will not go hungry for that day. Teach that man to fish, he will not go hungry for the rest of his life"

Haha okok, got a little carried away there, yeah and thats what I gotta share about that magazine, its not a bad read, but honestly, I am still not of age to read it yet. Not that is have any rude content or anything, just that I am still in my youth, and its better for me to enjoy these moment before it passes me. As for things in the magazine, its issue I guess I should be aware of, just not yet a time for me to be worried on just as yet. Haha.... its indeed an "adult magazine" hehe... good read thou... Alright, have a great sunday ahead man. Cheers!
