Taking a step at a time
walking hand in hand
1 2 3 4
cheek to cheek...
And that learning how to do that dance
Let this love be forever...
I wish for this...
to be true for you and me...

世界太复杂 你说单纯很难
我当然都明白。。。
只有你能了解
我要的梦（世界）其实并不大
我哭的，疯的，伤的，
在你面前哭得最惨。

Snippets - May 2010
I don’t know if it is an age thingie or what – but these days, I have several guy friends and even acquaintances telling me point blank straight in the face that I am a very attractive lady.
Wah.
I actually thought it was a bit too much of a compliment to receive recently. I may get super air-headed. Hah.
Maybe, now that we are older and more comfortable with who we are, we tend to just say things upfront.
Anyway, I’ve also learnt to just smile and thank them, and quickly move on to other topics.
Yes, I admit it definitely brightens up your day to receive such compliments, particularly from guys; but I guess, unless the person(s) matter(s) to me, such compliments honestly have little effect on me.
That’s cos I know I am attractive in my own way. In fact, everyone is.
And as cliché as it sounds, I still think beauty comes from within and coupled that with confidence nd total comfy with who you are (and that includes knowing and admitting to your own flaws), you will be attractive.
But, don't be stingy and keep the compliments coming! (hah. see? told you i might just get super bimbotic...)
###
Received a call from a headhunter last Friday. And he hoped to be able to receive my CV by Sunday so that he can expedite the entire thing…
Which is good. I have always wanted to update my CV for the longest time anyway, but never really got around doing it. And it's not professional if I already agreed to the deadline and come up with excuses later...
And so, I "forced" myself to do it, amid my zzz-ness.
But come to think of it, I wonder how much faith I can place in this guy. In fact, he kinda got scolded by me because he actually called my office line and asked if I could talk.
Too bad, he caught me at a bad time, and I thought he could exercise more common sense into his job. Even if I was available to talk at that time, how was I able to discuss such things with him on the office line? Even if they have to call during office hours, all other headhunters who previously got in touch with me called me on my mobile.
Which makes me wonder – how did all these headhunters get my contact, when I did not put myself out there in the market? I always tried to ask, but of course, all of them just replied me with a “”well, we got our ways. That’s how headhunting works.”
What the…
Anyway, just finished updating my CV. Still not to my own standard of perfection. But I’m feeling too tired… I’ll just send this out and see how it goes first bah…

How much would you spend on your buddies' birthday pressies?
Someone is buying his buddy for the longest time a netbook, and then ask me if I wan to share with him.
While I do not mind sharing or chipping in 10-20 percent, since I know his buddy too; I just wonder:
1) That person is his buddy. I am not very close to his buddy. So why are you asking me to share a pressie with you?
2) If you say a netbook is really cheap, it's not. But if you say it is really expensive, it is also not. But a decent netbook should cost about a couple of hundreds, I guess? Would you spend a couple of hundreds on your buddy for the longest time?
Thinking back, I think the most expensive pressies me and my buddies exchange were only about $100?
We would not twitch if you ask us to spend a couple of hundreds on our boyfriends or hubbies; but when it comes to our own jie-mei's birthdays, somehow, we will cap it at $100 the most, and then keep lamenting "very broke, very broke this month..."
And so, when I heard about him buying his buddy a netbook, I was like - wah.. It also makes me wonder about myself and my own friends... Why huh?
Yes.. wah.. I'm jealous.
Because to gals, we buy gifts for guys based on monetary value. So, the more expensive a gift is, the more it goes to show you are important to her.
But this said, this also depends on how much that girl can afford in the first place. S$90 might mean peanuts to you, but it might mean a lot to the girl...
Then again, true friendship can't be measured in terms of monetary value - I know. It's about being there for each other emotionally, physically, mentally, whatever -lly you have...
Actually, I also dunno what I am blabbering about. Suddenly, I find this whole article dun make sense and the thoughts dun flow...
Think I better go zzz soon.

Roundabout
Some days, you realize that you get to a roundabout.
Not a crossroad junction.
This is a little bit different.
You do not have to make a choice, if you rather not to.
You can just go round and round,
Seemingly looking for the right signs
Before you are finally tired
And decide to exit anyway.
Funny thing is ~
You don't stop.
Yet, you don't really start.
There is just something
Alluring about the roundabout.
The distinction
Between the starting point
And the ending point
Begins to blur. At some point.
Some say the world is round,
Like a roundabout.
Or a ferris wheel.
And some day, somewhere,
our paths will cross. Again.
Will they? Ever?
I think
For now,
It is time I start to exit.

Baby Blues
My hot date with little four-month-old Jayden! He's just such an adorable little darling!
And he poo-ed immediately after this shot! Oh well.. at least, after I put him down in his pram....

Victor's little princess, Shenise...
My secondary class and school mates at Shenise's full-month cele. Look at her proud Daddy beside me! We were all jokingly threatening Victor that we shall not tell his daughter that her daddy's nickname in school was Äh Blur! He's still sometimes as blur now, i thought, anyway. Oops!

Totally hopeless
I'm either hopeless or useless.
I'm pacified... yet again.
Can't stand myself for being such a gullible/easily-pacified gal...

哭过就好了， 是真的吗？
第一次听到着首歌 ，就很喜欢它的旋律。。。
第一次看到MV, 看了它的词 ，就哭了出来。。。
过了一段时间，再次听到这首歌， 还是哭了出来。。。
我从来都不说“不”， 不是因为我愿意
是因为 我爱你
我从来都不生气， 不是因为我没有脾气
是因为 我爱你
我从来都不哭， 不是因为我没有眼泪
是因为 我爱你
哭过就好了， 是真的吗？
###
为什么你会把我对你的好,
好像就当作那么地理所当然？
为什么你的一句话，
就可以抹煞我在你身上花的所有心思？
为什么你明明老早就答应我的，和我说好的，
还可以临时改变主意？
为什么我还和你确定了一次又一次，
还可以临时有变化？
为什么明明就是你的错，
你还以为随便找个人来，就可以安抚我？
###
为什么我会这么笨，
一次又一次地相信你？
为什么我会这么傻，
一次又一次地因为你的言语举止而心软？
为什么我会这么天真，
一次又一次地被你骗 ？
###
面对你，或许是对我最大的讽刺。。。
够了。。。 真的。。。
