Love Lost.......Love Found....

I guess many had been following the news on the tragic lost of a Singaporean, Ms Lo, to terror. Such a sad and tragic thing to have happened. My deepest condolences to her family, and particularly her hubby. Watching the new this morning brought a swell of emotions to me, hearing her hubby tell the media Ms. Lo's final words, trying very hard to hold back his tears. His facial expression is filled with missed, sorrow, grief. As he narrated the scene of him having to go to the hotel room where his beloved lies all so peacefully. I cannot even imagine the amount of grief he had with him... "I was able to touch her, and she is still very beautiful". The final words that she left him was "If I am not to make it out here, I just want to let you know that I love you". SAD....

After this tragic news, came a good news. One of my friend in Melbourne, Teo Hui, just got engaged!, Congrats bro, may you guys have a blissful life ahead. This guy have been a great pal of mine since poly days, so much so that people thought he was "partner" of mine... ahhahah all those times brings back wonderful memories but well, he has been a great help in showing me ways to shed those pounds and a source of inspiration, a goal to work towards. So happy for him that he has found his life partner.

As one lost his "life" the other is ready to embark on his new "life", and life goes on...

Turned 24...

Yesterday was the day I was born... 24 years ago... Its was a simple affair, a simple dinner with my dearest, Serene, and everything was already memorable... hehe...For many years, I feel that my birthday was a forgotten affair. I guess it was because its always during the school holidays (back then when I was in school) and technology was not as advance, as birthday wishes cannot be sent via sms or emails at that time. So I tend to feel really lonely during this day, so much so it was like another ordinary day. But that was back then....

Yesterday, I recieved so many birthday wishes... some were even made in advance... Am so touched by everything. I guess people do remember, and and thank each and everyone who did, you guys really made me feel special. Thank you...

Seeing how I grew over the years... maturing thinking (at least I think they are maturing.... I hope.. haha) physical transformation... I have to say life has been pretty kind to me thus far... Call me simple minded or lack ambition, but honestly, sometime when I look at those that are very ambitions, you hear them complain about life more often then they eat in a day. People seem to all taken the concept of "working smart" over "working hard". Working smart does not mean u dun have to work hard... many do not understand this point. I see many whinning everyday (I do contribute my fair share too) when there is too much work, they complain they cannot breath, when there is no work, they complain its a waste of their talent.... I dun understand. I love to sit down an reflect at times, working hard and smart must come hand in hand i guess... and everything need to strike a balance for things to work.

Anyway... shall not bore you all with my "one year older, one year wiser" bullsh*t hahaha... yesterday was simple but enjoyable affair. A simple dinner after a rough day puts a sweet end to my day... hehez.... maybe rough is to harsh a word... hmm.. long day then... hehez...

Alright will be posted lah...
