Addict to Addiction (note to self)

I addict to things easily. And my bad habit, once I got into it, I addict to my addictions. I know it's best to quit, but I just keep doing it, until, someone gets me out of it, or I finally know how bad things can be. I wouldn't prefer the latter.

And you know what's worst with addictions, you kind of go on a cycle of getting out of it, and coming back to it.

Wei Wei, bad habit, get them off!!!!

不要以为我很随便

上周末，从槟城飞来新加坡，因为班机延迟了，所以没办法之下只好打计程车。看见T1的长龙，差点没晕倒，没有法子，只好等。

等着等着，在我前面的男人问我，这个时候还有地铁吗？我告诉他，有是有的，不过怕到了Tanah Merah没有connecting train了。他“噢”了一声，也没再继续。我就继续传简讯（现代人……）

过了一阵子，前面的男人又转过来问我是槟城人吗？我说是的，他的槟城口音也很重，一听就知道他是。他说了很多，我也忘了是什么，大约是在新加坡生活了多久之类的。然后，突然之间，话题就变得很奇怪。他说，他这把年纪，如果留在槟城早就娶老婆了，在新加坡很难找老婆，寂寞得很。我没能搭腔，只好笑笑。他问我干那行，我说工程。他说：“好啊，男生应该很多吧。你的机会可多哦！”

……

我含含糊糊的敷衍他，他还是不死心。在快到他上计程车的时候，他说，我们保持联络，交换电话好吗？

老兄，保持什么鬼联络，我和你聊天不到两分钟咯！我说不用了。他又说了一堆话，再问我，真的不交换电话。我说，不用。

他竟然一脸不悦，“那我先走了！”，转过身，继续等计程车。

我习惯了在机场或旅行的时候和身边的陌生人聊天，不过，第一次遇见同乡人和我聊天，竟是这样的！他开始和我聊天，竟是为了电话号码，我不给他，他就马上不说话了。这种#￥%……%—%*……*—（的男人！难怪没有女朋友！

他以为他这副德性随随便便在taxi stand可以pick up一个女生？我要是真的这么随便，也会找个帅哥啦，拜托！！！！

赠卫八处士——杜甫

我一直为我自己没有好好念唐诗而觉得惭愧。小时候，因为妈妈是唐诗三百首“迷”，我也有一本儿童唐诗三百首。不识字，但是整本书倒是背得朗朗上口。可是，长大后，懒惰了，就没再更深了解唐诗。

九月份在成都的书展，买了一本人民币10元的唐诗三百首，慢慢地读。

觉得这首诗不错，或许五十年以后的今天，我用得着。所以，在这里share一下。

人生不相见，动如参与商。
今夕复何夕，共此灯烛光。
少壮能几时，鬓发各已苍。
访旧半为鬼，惊呼热中肠。
焉知二十载，重上君子堂。
昔别君未婚，儿女忽成行。
怡然敬父执，问我来何方。
问答未及已，儿女罗酒浆。
夜雨剪春韭，新炊间黄粱。
主称会面难，一举累十觞。
十觞亦不醉，感子故意长。
明日隔山岳，世事两茫茫。

I Need Something New!

I found that I've been repeating my dinner lately, I'm getting tired of it, so I need something new. Now, I'm addictive -ly clicking away in Jamie Oliver's website. And what's worse, I felt hungry as I clicked my way through. And I realized my fridge is just too small!!! My kitchen is too small!!!

Dinner is not the only thing needed to be new. I was browsing Olympus website (I do that occasionally) and found that they actually have promotion for existing E-system user for the new Olympus E-5. It's really tempting, it's year end, should I get it?!

I need a new phone too! My Sony Ericsson was half dead by the time it reached its one year anniversary. Now, it got crazier day by day, I'm just waiting to get my new phone!!! (But I've already guaranteed myself one, so no worry about this *wink*)

Oh man...

By the way, can anybody tell me how to make rolls? I want to make this!

Smoked salmon rolls

I'm Re-reading

Thanks to Kia Hooi, who recommended this book to me years ago when I really needed it.

I recommended that to Sock Hoai after that, and she recommended that to a friend and the list goes on... It's a chain effect.

I'm re-reading it now, after all, I need them again.

=)

I'm a Sucker for British Accent Man

Sock Hoai and I went to watch "I love you Philip Morris" last week, a gay movie starred by Ewan McGregor and Jim Carrey. Then we realized, we both like Ewan (OMG! Like so much!) and we're actually suckers for British accent guys.

Give me a random British man, I just love the way they speak. Everything sounds SO elegant.

Even when Simon Cowell is being so mean!

Even when they're so old! I still think Sean Connery is the best James Bond, but of course, he's best when he's Indiana Jones's father.

Even when they went to prostitutes.... :S

Even his hair is getting lesser and lesser... Still sexy!

And of course, when it comes to a combination of British accent, sexy & handsome look and good singer, I melt...

But wait, I think there's one British man whom I might not think he's sexy and elegant...

Haha!

He's Coming Back Tomorrow

The Man is out of country for almost two weeks, and I have been pretty messed up for the two weeks too.

I've been having too much alcohol, too much caffeine, too little sleep, too much non-routine random life, too much junk food... And a lot of emotional ups and downs too. In conclusions, too much of not-too-good-for-you things, and too little of good-for-you things.

I've been feeling a little bit of lonely, and people around me suffer, because I get them to do things with me.

Finally, the Man is coming back to town tomorrow, and I think that's when everybody finally feels relieved, and I will get my life back to normal too!

Phewww...

Thoughts after Last Night

Sock Hoai and I chatted the whole night last night, until we saw the purplish light came out from the skyline telling us it's actually morning.

I told her my secret dreams, my frustrations, my weaknesses, my happiness etc... Some of the things, are things I've never told anybody, that I've never have the guts to admit them myself. (That's the problem when you chat for the whole night, and especially you've already had some alcohol)

I was told a few days ago, to do what I want to do when I'm still young because the courage gets lesser as you age.

To put it in another way, you're not doing anything fun and spontaneous anymore!

Talking to Sock Hoai had made me think of a lot of things that I want to achieve, but had not yet achieved, some of them are not even on the way. I realized how much more effort I have to continue to put in, before I die with regrets.

If you have purpose to fulfill, the Beings up in the Heaven will know, and they won't take you away before you achieve them! That's how I remind myself every now and then, so that I work towards what I want.

Ask yourself, if you're given a day to be spontaneous, and that you have nothing to lose, what will you do?

I'm feeling spontaneous now!

比赛

人，天生犯贱。没有“竞争者”在身旁，会渐渐变得舒适，懒惰。

“竞争者”来了，好胜心驱使下，加把劲，向前冲。

你猜，我现在身旁有没有竞争者？

1010101010

I'm officially 27 year old yesterday. And, I am not any wiser.

I happened to wake up at 10.10am on 101010. My alarm clock was snoozing crazily since 9.30am in the morning, I kept switching them off until I saw this magical code, 1010101010. Hence, I decided to wake up.

I just thought it's kinda fun. Like I told you, I'm not getting wiser, I realized, I'm still a kid who believes (chose to believe) Peter Pan is real.

I should probably be serious on listing down what I've done in 27 years of my life, and what I should do in the next 2-5 years. But unfortunately, I'm a bit light headed now, as I'm drinking a little bit of beer that Yee Hau bought to celebrate my birthday before he flew to Nepal.

The Man really knows how to surprise me when I least expected anything from his busy schedule. He was so busy preparing Nepal trip, I really never expected any celebration. It's not easy to organize a mission trip. What he did, although it's such simple gesture, moved me to tears. (It's really easy!)

I have got no candles, no birthday songs, but that are not what I need. My family, YH, friends and relatives have already made my day :)

I love the world!

Like Discovery Channel said, the world is awesome!

Let's carry on :)
