and so we went!



E, J and I have been talking about eating dim sum at Red Star for the longest time. So last weekend, we made up our minds to try to go on Sat and Sun morning! We reckoned that if you aim only for a day, we'll miss it altogether so it's better to aim for two days! Dragged our sorry asses out of the bed at 10am and we made it on Sat! :D binged so much that i think i had enough of dim sum for a long time.

:(

Been under the weather this week... I hate falling sick. Dug up some of my old books, this one's one of my fav. By Robert Frost, no less.

A boundless moment

He halted in the wind, and--what was that
Far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
He stood there bringing March against his thought,
And yet too ready to believe the most.

'Oh, that's the Paradise-in-bloom,' I said;
And truly it was fair enough for flowers
had we but in us to assume in march
Such white luxuriance of May for ours.

We stood a moment so in a strange world,
Myself as one his own pretense deceives;
And then I said the truth (and we moved on).
A young beech clinging to its last year's leaves.

A380 Takeoff (London Heathrow - Singapore)



The engine was so quiet for such a big jet. And also check out the flaps! :) *I so need a holiday*

blah!

I really dislike this part of the year. Everything's moving so fast, too little time to make sure that everything I do is up to my own satisfaction. And I have little time of my own to do the things I want. Then there are important decisions to make. Should I go on and further my studies or should I just wait one more year? What if i lose steam and become complacent. Or just contented with where I am now... What if I lose the drive. Grr... decisions... I so need todo the PMI right now but I don't even have time to do it!!! ARGH!

One man lost is one man too many.

Adrian has passed away. I find it wierd to speak of him in the past tense. Just a year ago I bumped into him at Bugis again. One of the few occasions that we met after I graduated. Back in uni, he would turn up to support his classmates during the sports events. My only anger is that he had a hard life. Played by the system that we have here in Singapore. Trapped by the very own people that were supposed to protect us. He finally became a doctor but just had to succumb to a lung infection at a mere age of 29. Life is just so unfair.
