being the mellow person i am, i sometimes wish im a social butterfly. when in a foreign environment, i often feel like a fish out of water. it'll also take me a long time to warm up to the people around me. but one thing i know; that is im thankful for the few great people around me.

surreal

for a couple of days, i get to escape the rat race. as i slip into a state of surrealism, i sometimes wish i'll never have to return to the dog-eat-dog world.




/ i wake up 1000 in the morning with the warm sunlight embracing my skin and to the sound of kindergarden children reciting nursery rhymes. i make my way to the coffeeshop and indulge myself with a traditional kaya toast set. a mere $1.80 - i am treated to a cup of aromatic coffee, freshly toasted kaya toast and 2 sunshine looking half boiled eggs. i choose a table by the road, slowly sipping my coffee while watching the birds, listening to coffeeshop talk on elections and price hikes, breathe in fresh air and think about life.

good morning.





/ the rest of the day

i read a good book on why 'The World is Flat'
work out like a celebrity at FitnessFirst gym at Paragon
listen to Damien Rice.Corrinne May.or set my iPod to random mode
go out with like-minded people for a swim.steam bath.karaoke.shopping.whatever
help the juniors at college with debates
dream big dreams

just taking time listening, watching, breathing, thinking and doing.
this is life.

- the Birthday Song
 Corrinne May

Don't worry about that extra line
That's creeping up upon your face
It's just a part of nature's way
To say you've grown a little more
Trees have rings and thicker branches
Kids shoes get a little tighter
Every year we're getting closer to who we're gonna be
It's time to celebrate the story of how you've come to be

Happy birthday my friend
Here's to all the years we've shared together
All the fun we've had
You're such a blessing
Such a joy in my life
May the good Lord bless you
And may all your dreams come true

So light a candle on your cake
For every smile you've helped create
For every heart and every soul
You've known to grow a little more
A few more pounds, a little more grey
Don't count the years just count the way
It takes a little time to go from water into wine
Don't ever lose the wonder of the child within your eyes

Happy birthday my friend
Here's to all the years we've shared together
All the fun we've had
It's such a blessing
Such a joy in my life
May the good Lord bless you
And may all your dreams come true

ageing population

i still want to learn singing, perhaps tennis and all..

cannot waste time anymore.

emptiness fills.

shake my hand.rule my land

don't you love the elections?

the rallies
the posters
the hand shakes
the dishing out of dirt
the vans with loud hailers
the promises of a better future

ah yes

and the money that came from heaven, also known as 'progress package which i didn't qualify for'. at least i got the 100 bucks NSF bonus. thank you very much.
