The Pink Sky

I saw a breathtaking sight just now. I was using the computor, feeling decidedly bored when my brother walked into my room and said, " Look at the sky". I turned and saw that our neighboorhood is bathed in pink! The light cast a pinkish glow on everything. The blocks of flats, the trees, the cars... Even though I was sitting just next to my window playing the computor, I didn't realise that there's something so beautiful just right outside.

Sometimes, we are so caught up with our life that we miss out on the very things that make life worth living. Maybe it's time we slow down and look around us. Who knows, maybe the most amazing thing is just right beside you. =)

Food Review

Ahh, here's something I will enjoy writing about. FOOD!
This restaurant ranked top in my list of favourite restaurants. It is the Tokyo Garden restaurant located at The Village, South Buona Vista road. My family has been patronising this Japanese restaurants once every 2 to 3 months, simply because the food rocks and the service is warm. The sashimi moriwase is the best I ever tasted for the the fish slices are very fresh and is slice thinly so it just melts in your mouth. The potato salad and chawamunshi are also must try! The food are also very carefully arrange on the dishes to look delectable. Anyway, I took some photos of some of the dishes we ordered yesterday.

Actually these are not the best dishes that we ate yesterday. The trouble is that once the food came, we sort of forget (or choose to ignore) to take pictures of the sashimi, yaki seafood ramen, the japanese tofu and the sesame ice-cream, etc, etc. By the way, I love the sesame ice-cream! It's so different and nice, taste a bit like peanuts but still different. It is something the chef whips up himself. *Drools*
Anyway people, if you feel like having japanese crusine, you can check this place out! Good food and good service are the reasons why it attracts my family to keep returning!

(p.s. Xiao pang, it's not guys lar.. Haha! But still your favourite?)

The Sleeping Illness

Do you know what's my biggest enjoyment during the exam periods? It is sleeping. It is the time when I can forget all about the stupid maths formulas which are useless in real life, the theories about why such and such happen, GP arguments, etc etc. Thus, I really look forward to sleeping everyday and even daydream about sleeping my days away after my exams.
However, now, (what the hell!) I'm suffering from insomnia! It pisses me off! Finally I have the time to sleep and I can't! So I began asking around and even surf the net for solutions. Here's 4 of them which I tried and, sadly, I declare them useless.
1) The typical "count the sheeps" method. It's boring, dry, dull, blah blah.. And you need to have a good memory for doing this. "1, 2, 3, this is stupid, 4, 5, ..., 150, can't believe I'm doing this, now is it 151 or 152? Heck! 153, 154, 155, 156, I'm getting angry, why am I not sleeping? Isn't method suppose to work? Now where am I?!" See, this happen to me so I declare this method, DUMB!
2) Drink a glass of warm milk before you sleep. But damn! Eating before sleeping makes you FAT! Next!
3) Listen to music. Rock music is definitely out in this case. Woodwinds or lullabies may do the trick but the way the singers croon and whine irritates me. Solution: switch off the radio and continue to sulk.
4) Go to bed only when drowsy. Duh!
What to do? What to do? Make me sleep!

This past year

How do I begin? I have stopped updating my entry for this past year, trying to get my life back. I never thought such unhappiness would descent upon me. I thought all along that i will be able to sail through my life. Enter a secondary school, then to a junior college, graduate from university and then get a good job. But now I realise that life don't always turn out to be what you expected it to be.
It's hard to be left behind. It's hard to want to cry but can't coz I know that crying won't help. It's hard to enter a class who knows that you are left behind. It's hard to bear the jeerings.
So what can I do? In the end, I refuse to write down what had happen to me during this year. I remembered this conversation with anita:
Anita why have u stopped writing your diary?
Me I do not like writing about unhappy stuffs.
Anita Then write about good stuffs! There should be happy stuffs to write about right?
I had no answer for her
I guess life will never be the same for me again; never felt such insecurities before.

That Darn Job

Think some of you must have known that I'm waiting for the Vet opposite my house to call me. For those who don’t know, I thought of working for the Vet opposite my house so I can save on the transportation fees and because of all the dogs I can get to see and touch if I get to work there. Well, when my friend and I got down to ask whether they want to hire any part-timers, they tell us to call their operation manager. That’s last week and now, the manager is always not there or she’s too busy to answer my call whenever I called. Argh! I'm getting so frustrated! There’s a lot of things I can’t give an answer to my friends because I don’t know if I'm working by that time. And I don’t like the way this job hunting drags on. It’s a waste of time and money!!

Sometimes I really wondered. We are friends for quite some time already and why some still don’t understand me. My character, my moods, my thinking… Did circumstances bring us together or did fate?

All About Being Single

Well, I don't really know how to start writing this but I think I’m going to be real straightforward about this. So, not beating around the bush, I'm going to tell everyone about my feelings now.
I think most of you know that I haven't step into any boy-girl relationships before. Well, some may think that it's weird that somebody can manage to stay single for so long. If I can choose, of cause I will not choose to remain single. But it's very difficult to develop mutual feelings for each other, at least in my case. So I remain single till now.
However, the thing is, I’m not unhappy or unsatisfied! Serious! and I’m writing this because I feel people do not believe that I’m happy and satisfied now. It really tickles me to see them putting on a sad appearance when i sometimes comment on their "attached" status and my "single" status. Really, my friends, I am not sad that I do not have a guy by my side. That's because I’m so surrounded by all my good friends and my family that I don’t have the time to spare for any other guy. And there's a saying that goes "what you never have, you'll never miss". I think this best describe my case.
Recently someone told me that I strike her as a very confident person. Is this true to you all? well, maybe because all this while, I’ve seen and heard so much about other people's relationships that I sort of understand how relationships goes. I cannot say that I’m an expert on this area as I had not experience any before. But sometimes u heard so much of the same typical things that becoming partners become meaningless. In fact, sometimes it even bores me. So when it happens to me, I want it to be magical! Explosive!! Haha! And that can only happen if we really really love each other. So I’m still waiting. (No, no, don't give me that sad face. smile!)
Last time this guy friend from ODAC told me that they treat me as a buddy and like I'm one of them. Damn, I feel so HONOURED! *laughs* I like this title more than being their dream girl or something. So although I don’t have any boyfriends, I do have a lot of boy friends. And I'm sure they will last longer than any other guy. *smiles*
So next time we talk, don't feel sad for me or anything. Because being single is ok with me. I don't have guys messing up my time, my feelings and my relationships with family and friends. If you put your hand around my shoulder, it feels like an insult to me! It’s like u pity me. And it's wasted because I don need it. Being single lets me gains independence and confidence. I don't want to let my life to be run by a guy. Until the right one comes along, I will be living my life happily, this I can assure you! Who ever sees me mope for a guy everyday? Haha!
