Sometimes, we really need to feel pain, to realise we are alive.

Sometimes, we really need to feel pain, to realise we are alive.

This line.. well.. what was that show?

This guy in a show have a remote control which he can skip the sad moments in life so that he does not have to experience the pain accompanied with that.

Yes, pain is unbearable.

But they make us more human.

I dreamt of my late grandma some time back and it made me remind how much I missed her. I have experienced the pain of losing someone dear twice over in 2 years.
...

argh.. headache.

I feel so numb.

I have enough of using my left brain in what is a week of academic hell for me. Tutorials, labs, assignments, lectures came in a whirl and hit me like a hurricane at monstrous speeds despite it being the 3rd week of school. All my left brain cells are hurt in the logical thought process. Crazy schedules like 9am to 9pm lessons are killing me...

zzz..

Therefore, my right brain is finally out to wreak havoc. Humming random distorted tunes in my little brain. It is kept hush in my tiny room of thoughts though...

Try this too if you want.

My right brain is taking dominance right now and I cant change how the dancer turns now. I normally can concentrate and let it turn whichever way I want.

Picked up a pen and doodled randomly on the bus.










I suck at drawing the nose and mouth. GRRR..

I feel so numb.

Sometimes, we really need to feel pain, to realise that we are alive.

This does not really bode well.

幸福的约定

我和缘分定了幸福的约定。


它可能有一点姗姗来迟,


可是我坚信一定会实现。

We are our main obstacle

I did an interesting experiment while I was on the way home from tuition tonight.

There was a long, straight stretch of road beside Queenstown Primary School which I have to walk. The lights were dim, and there was no one in sight. There wasn't any obstacles in front either.

Hence, I closed my eyes, and I counted my steps as I proceeded to walk towards home.

1.. 2.. 3.. 4.. ... 9.. 10..seems like eternity...

10 steps were my threshold when I started to falter, and almost stumbled.

Although we know that the road ahead is straight and how it looks like, the moment we lost sight of our goal, we stumbled and we became our main obstacle, because we are afraid. We are afraid, because what is known, has become unknown.

We need to cure ourselves of our insecurities.

Duck hearts, tongue, and wings

These were photos taken weeks ago, courtesy of Jow's superb camera phone. Jow, Ah Chua and me were at Chinatown that day to scout for travel packages to go to Bangkok for holiday. In the end, we decided to book the air tickets and hotel separately.

Lunch was imminent after we met and hence we went to one of the complex to settle our devilish cravings. We had our fill when Ah Chua decided to treat us to something cool after I had coolly taken on the challenge of eating Duck wings, heart and tongue. EEEKS.


The one on the right with the tentacles is the tongue and the one that is skewered in a row are 3 duck hearts.


I am smiling broadly with the duck heart at my mercy but seriously, I wasn't too amused at the thought of eating the heart. It has a rubbery texture and certainly does not whet my appetite.

After that little misadventure, we went to Casualpoet, a place which I have previously recommended.



Ah Chua looking very happy.



Don't act shy la, Jow jow. We know u are big.


Say Cheese~~~


Xiao Ye mao~~~


A picturesque view of the place.



lalala~

Overall, Casualpoet is a nice place to have a cup of coffee and talk with your friends while you laze through your entire afternoon. =))
