The worst fear about being alive is knowing that you have to face death. And all that is left of you is nothing but memories. I'm afraid. Everyday all we ever wanted is to seek happiness. But suddenly, you see everybody shedding tears, mourning for a loved one who has gone. Yes it's always a struggle to move on. But be blessed for family members and friends who are there for us. To all my loved ones on the other side, you're missed and my prayers are with you.

I love Fridays. Not only because today is Christmas, and then next Friday is New Year's Day. In fact I love Fridays. Good Fridays. Merry Christmas everyone. I'm religiously watching two episodes of That '70s Show every day. If I have the time, I can finish all seasons within a week. IT RULESSSSSSSSSZZZZZZZ. Oh my god. Topher Grace was such a cutie! I effing love the characters. Always laughing my arse off at Fez and Kelso. Living in the 70s was so much cooler man. The music, clothes, shoes, cars, people......just why in the world am I born in the 90s?!

2009 is soon coming to an end. Like I've mentioned, probably the worst year - work, school, work, home, the loss of Michael Jackson, Rihanna got punched, Taylor Swift's interrupted moment, Letterman's and Wood's whore-fying affair - it's a mad world. I bet 2010 is going to be a great and a brighter year ahead for me. So what's on my top 10 2010 checklist? 1. Braces. Because people look good with straight teeth. I swear it's effing uncomfortable having a huge gap between your upper and lower teeth = esteem issue. $2000 more to go effing shit. 2. Lose truckloads of weight. Because people look good when they're slim and fit. I swear it's effing uncomfortable when your own mother compliments other good-looking daughters = another esteem issue. I know it's like the hundredth time I've been telling myself to lose weight but this time, it's for real. I'm sick and tired of myself. 
Make it top 2 for now. It's time for a change.

Finally, I feel awesome again. I thank almighty God for this opportunity of a lifetime. And I thank my friend for all this. Thank you so much Hawa. There's always a purpose if you befriend a stranger. I'm grateful that this decision I chose will definitely be beneficial to my long-term career goals. The kind of people and environment I love most, this is the one. Who wouldn't want to get paid for their studies and at the same time there's money to be earned? I can't wait to step into the classroom, looking at the most brightest faces. And from time to time, establishing greater bond and understanding between us. Patience, patience and lots of patience to start off my first week. But it's going to be fine - my instinct says so. My greatest appreciation to my dear friends for their encouragement, advice and support when I was going through this difficult phase. 
I watched New Moon again but this time round, with the right companions. But still, it felt awful. The movie is real crap and full of shit with the exception of Jacob Black, Carlisle Cullen, the wolves and volturi. The rest is a major disaster. Like, duh. That's what you expect when making movies out of books. By far the best, breath-taking ones would be The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe and Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban. The bottomline is, New Moon movie sucks. Major-spoiler-arsehorle-ruined-my-favourite-book-poor-Stephenie Meyer. You gotta love The Sartorialist. This is beauty.

The other day, I took the longest minute gazing at the sky. I wish I could do it for one hour more. The connection between nature and me = the best feeling ever.

Lately people around me are getting weak. And I'm worried sick. Look at where we are now. I can't believe we're in the beginning of the last month of 2009. Worst year for me but it's a lesson learned.

New Moon is my ultimate most favourite read. I swear to God I cried many many times. Even had loss of appetite. Somehow Bella's pain and struggle affected me whole-heartedly. And the last time I read it was ten months ago. I met my so-called long lost lost buddy in the train while I was on my way to the movie. Coincidentally we were going to the same direction. All thanks to my instinct. It insisted me to alight at another place to take the train instead. I stood outside at this one particular entrance when the train arrived. Then my instinct hinted me to board at the next side of the entrance. As I sat down, I observed the person closely with the corners of my eyes. It took some time to figure out if the person really was Melvin. Three minutes later, he looked into my direction and gave a surprised look. Melvin, still feeling surprised, approached and sat next to me. It was a blessing to have a conversation with him like we used to. I miss those days. 
(Oh how gracious, devilish Dakota Fanning can be. Each time she was screened, a small part of my mind went elsewhere, recalling her little self in I Am Sam.) Twilight the movie kicks ass. New Moon the movie? Well, not so. But New Moon the book totally kicks ass. The bottomline is - watching New Moon wasn't that exciting as compared to Twilight. It's a loss for Catherine Hardwicke to break up herself from directing. I believe her point of view and direction would be hella ton times better than Chris Weitz's. She made Twilight looked like an indie film wheareas Chris's was slow-paced, not much action and too many pauses (strange comparison haha). But the Volturi looked cool, and so were the wolf pack. Love love love the painting and the underwater scenes. Major hotties alert. My heart was squealing like mad when I saw Carlisle. He looked way perfect than Edward I believe. Then along came the wolf pack. I squealed even more. Gosh this is so embarassing. I'm not the only one I believe. I'm deeply disappointed that my one and only Twilight companion didn't get to watch with me. =( It would be so much cooler watching with her. Another promise broke. I'm still feeling guilty.

Strangers have always mistaken me for Chinese and/or Filipino.
Sometimes I fake it but they could tell.
An extraction of Javanese & Baweanese;
but I can converse, write & curse in fluent English & Malay.
I live in Singapore that hasn't been snowing since day one.
My childhood was wicked awesome. Everything was hakuna matata back then.
Life gets more complicating every day. But when times get real tough,
I'll find my inner peace & strength. And God.
I enjoy reflecting on the simple things in life, accompanied by nature.
I worship Adele, Mumford & Sons, Coldplay and Justin Nozuka.
Ellen Page is such a sincere and genuine person,
I wish I could take a day off to hang out with her.
I fist bump my close friends, including my mom. And thank you God, for everything.
