Just a thought..
always been thinking..
still thinking.. ..

always think its true..
still think its true.. ..

this applies to old married couples.. parents etc..

k.. The Thought..
"If they still have sex.. they'll always have a way to solve their differences.. If they dun.. that's almost the end of the marriage.. typical chinese thinking - staying together BECAUSE of the kids.."

*sigh³*

Merry Christmas!
work on eve.. had sorta a xmas dina.. alone!? =) but nice.. turkey.. ham.. vege soup.. yum yum.. went church.. nope not christian.. just hang out coz nothing to do.. midnight mass.. hang out.. dim sum supper at geylang.. not bad.. but service was fucked up.. hang out.. came home.. merry merry christmas.. totally no christmasy feeling tis yr.. no prezzie.. no need to spend money on prezzie also.. still have 3 logcake lying in my fridge.. all free.. hee.. think tomo i'm gonna have logcake breakfast lunch dina..

Some old logs:-
some stuff tt i forgot to post/too lazy to post the last few days

-Unsolved Mystery(15/12/2002)
happened while i was in bangkok.. woke up late.. rushing to pack bag.. have to check out.. fren can't find glasses.. i swear i din touch it.. found inside stinky shoe later.. fren din put in there.. only 2 of us in the room.. room locked all nite.. only reason i can think of is sleepwalking.. but its still weird.. errie too.. *goose pimples*

-Just Dina(21/12/2002)
mum wasn't home.. nobody cook dina.. everybody went out to eat.. initial plan was east coast hawker centre.. coz it was a sat.. decided not to go bang with crowds.. went some restaurant.. vege, fish, deer meat, lobster, fish maw soup, gui ling gao(dessert).. as i was eating.. suddenly feel really bad.. how many can actually have the luxury of all these as a nomal day dina (avg $20 per pax).. thou not an everyday affair.. its still a luxury.. still think that all these comes with a price that only those in the shoes will noe.. feel bad yet.. hate it!? arghh.. dunno just mixed feelings..

-Rich n Famous Lifestyle(22/12/2002)
toking abt rich lifestyle.. met a real life person who doesn't get outta hse coz she's broke.. but can't she just go out for a walk or something? nope.. y? coz a trip out will coz her twelve fucking bucks.. n public buses to her take forever so she rather not if cab is not avail.. tis world is just fill w all kinds of pple.. i can't even c myself taking cab (got some super training fr mom at young age n now its in my blood) even when i'm carrying loads, running late, wee hrs in the morn'.. call it stingy.. call it watever.. ya.. not as if i'm poor or anything.. but i just find it damn difficult to spent money on cab when the other public transport is readily available.. puhh.. changing for the better..!? or izzit worse?!

    Hanging On
    wasted few hundred bucks again.. (ok 2nd time.. last time..) everything is just so messed up.. everybody ask mi to try.. i wld have ask mi to try too.. but mi tell i not to.. perhaps avoiding is just much easier -- no hope=no disappointment.. perhaps its just not abt trying anymore -- i need to noe my stuffs.. i really wonder the whole idea of it.. it doesn't prove anything.. it doesn't show that u noe ur stuffs..
    anyway.. 1½ more yrs.. MAX 2 yrs.. i need to hang on.. i'm gonna hang on.. i'm hanging on.. .. .. 5yrs.. NOT MORE.. no time for more..!
