Well we all have a face

That we hide away forever

And we take them out and show ourselves

When everyone has gone

I'm not a loser…

It's really touching to know that people do appreciate the pictures you take for them.

Tonight, I feel touched.

And to top that up, I did my 1st paid gig - a shared effort actually.

Thanks for believing in me baby. =)

Is it still worthwhile to live...

.. as a Singaporean?
Reading the headlines that appeared recently, may have sparked a wake up call.

Raise of retirement age from 62 to 65 to 68:
Raising the retirement age just because Finland is doing it? Has the "so-called spokesperson" presented the other side of the story on this rationale? The Fins are able to implement this because of the welfare policies in place for their own citizens. Do we have any to speak of? We clock in the most number of hours per work week, even higher than any other countries.

Being labeled as 75 percenters:
Being labeled as 75%ers by our very own Minister. Talk is easy. Let's wait til you're on the ground with us, struggling to make a REAL living and feeding mouths.

Look for solutions and take responsibility?
"To criticise is easy, to look for things you're not comfortable with, that's easy. But don't just end there ... Always go to the next step, ask what are the solutions, and not say, oh it's the Government's job to fix all this. No, it's not the Government's job all the time," Mr Goh said.

Then why the hell is the 66.6% trying to control the every move of its citizens? Ranging from how many babies to bear to compulsory insurance plans. Duhh.

Losing identity:
"SM Goh also challenged the young undergrads in his audience to “make a difference to Singapore” by joining local politics."

Would I draw top dollars like the current Ministers if I joined politics as suggested by SM Goh? If I could, I would!

Take care.

My heart melted. =)

3 months already~

How times fly... It's already been 3 months!

Looking forward to more happy times with u. ^.^

Stages of Life

Came across this on the Internet, which I find it somewhat true.

Are you enjoying your moment now?

Feeling blessed...

This has to be the best year ever. =)

With the company of frens - new found and old, and my beloved, the birthday celebrations made me feel loved and blessed.

Yup, I had 2 surprise celebrations with the different groups of friends. And my love was involved in the plots. Haha... Really appreciated everyone's efforts, esp yours my love. =)

I wonder if going through birthday celebrations were part of the reason why I was feeling cranky the past few days. Maybe I'm just too proud to admit - that I'm getting 'wiser'. And being cranky didn't help... sometimes it made me act like someone I didn't want to be. :(

Anyways, looking forward to the final celebration on the actual day itself with just us. =D

When opinions don't matter.

Disappointed, not with the fact that you decided to go ahead with something you felt justified; but for the fact that you did not highlight your actual intention at all.

There is a problem that people want to communicate and have lost sight of the difference between a conversation and communication. However, it seems the discussion of ideas and opinions isn't really a case of one or the other. It tends to be someone who doesn't agree with you wishing to point out the error of your thoughts.

Well, I guess it's really like what you said - my opinion is not required.

The more I learn, the more I love.

The more I learn, the more I love.
The more my heart can't get enough.

Happy 1st month baby. :)
