A little more privacy?

"Haven't seen you for a long time! What would you like to have today?"

I was greeted by one of the aunties working in McDonalds near my place.. I was surprised they actually still remember me cause the last time i came here for breakfast was more than half a year ago, during my previous job where i have to wake at 6 to do system checking everyday.. thus i usually have breakfast and read books here after that since i am allow to go to office bout an hour later..

Anyway.. the reason i am sitting here again.. eating and even blogging is because i didn't feel like going home yet. Cause every morning around 6.30 to 7 is like rush hour at my home.. everyone walking and moving around preparing for work.. and recently the weather has been so hot so even if i am home, i wont be able to use the shower and hav to wait till they are all gone.. so McD with aircon seems a better choice to do the waiting.

well, not just that, ever since i shifted house.. i really wish i cud shift again.. in fact this time round to have my own room... with a little more privacy.. I am not sure if this is because of the house or just recently i havent been able to really sleep comfortably (like a sleep more than 4 hours, i cud count with my fingers for the past one month)... i really feel this place is only a place to store my things, shower and do some sleep.. given a choice, i prefer spending a day in orchard, sitting in a cafe or even my company, my office desk, my chair there feels more comfortable than my 'house' my 'room'... sigh.. still 10 more months till the contract expires..

... almost time to go 'home'.. shud have clear out by now.. and its so hot.. of all year round.. bloody weather!

I want!!!

G-shock watches was a brand that I first knew about when my cousin-sister first got a baby-g. That was when I was in primary school. It was a luxury item to us back then. We can only look at it in the shop stores everytime we go to the super market, which was Super Kinta. For those who grew up in Ipoh, I guess you would know this... Then it was in University that I first bought a g-shock for myself during sales, a very classical black and red design. Then subsequently I got to know a place which sells this at a cheaper than market rate and so I bought another one in white-orange for myself and a red-black for my brother. Both are of very different designs...

Anyway, I am still not consider a huge fan or collector, but merely getting excited if i see some nice design..

So this post is related to the incident where I was preparing for the pink-dot event. As it is suggested participant should wear soemthing pink, I was just looking around at the last minute for soemthing Pink, and then this watch, caught my attention. Casio makes pink watches, that's not a big-deal, but the reason this caught my attention was:

- It's huge.. and I have some likings for huge things.. ( okay... i know this is a decent post =p)
- It's analog + digital and very futuristic design

Today I did a search and realize it is called the GA series,



And they have it in uni-color design, which is pretty unique, it feels like a toy-ish design but quite cool to have it on your wrist. They also have it in what they call hyper color design which is a mixture of some cool and fun color.. I almost bought it (the pink one)... but then, it cost 170 bucks... and come to think of it i am not really that rich, 170 for an event? nah..

So well, it kinda passed my mind and I was thinking I will go to that shop in Bugis someday to check if they sell it at some incredibly cheaper price (I know i am dreaming, but sometimes, they do happen.. serious!)

So today, I was finally there.. and I saw this thing that really makes me want to take out my visa card, swipe it and take it home... It's so cool and cute!!!!!!



Okay, so this is a box-set as you can see. With a cute little g-shock man thingy. First impression, I have to admit it looks like one of those hyper color model, but after talking to the shop owner, i was told it is a limited edition where this particular one combines all the color in the GA series...

Which when you look at it yea, u really find all the colors in the watch. It is so creative and the designer, Nakano Shirou, makes a really creative effort to mix up all the colors, all the colors nicely put around the watch...

And it comes with this little g-shock-man of the same design, it's gonna looks so cool on my office desk, as a clock and display.. (along with my one-piece pirate boat set.. =p )



Gosh I was so so sooooo tempted to take out my card to swipe it except when I look at the price... it was SGD $398 ... the moment was like the air-freezes, and my mind cool off...

Okay, 400 bucks for a really cool and uniquely design watch set...

@ its more than RM1k leh!
# cute woh
@ but I have to save for the school fees!
# it's limited edition woh!!
@ and my nite shift allowance only temporary..
# ... *sniff sniff*

So it is still in the shop there... sigh... so cute...

最熟悉的陌生人

最熟悉的陌生人 - This is a chinese song title, but at the same time, it is also a very meaningful term..

The direct translation is, the most familiar stranger. It doesn't make sense right? Okay, i know for one my english is not that good, and secondly logically how can you be familiar with a stranger?

well, this term is used on couples who broke up, especially if it is a ugly break up...

Today because of the totally dissapointing GSS, we end up being in Karaoke.. =p

Then somewhere somehow i saw this title.. and it makes me think back about what would have happened.. if I hadn't made that decision.. We could end up really being annoyed and hating each other.. not even friends... We have lost trust in each other, we have thoughts that is negative of each other... we never agree with each other anymore... and you never see a future there... I guess maybe you were right, you were more rational than I was..

At least we didn't end up not wanting to talk to each other, like total strangers, even we once knew each other so well... and end up being 最熟悉的陌生人...

Shopping Spree?

It's long weekend again in Singapore, people would be flooding to Malaysia, to Bangkok, Hong Kong etc.. even those left behind will be flooding onto the city downtown area..

As for me, it is again the social life vs sleep decision again... well obviously I am not gonna sleep so much so... in 3.5 hours time.. i am gonna wake up and rush into the 1st day of GSS (great singapore sales) with my Hometown best friend.. it is his kinda first GSS here, so i suggested we go for first day while everything still has your size..

Not really in the mood to shop.. kinda feel like no matter how i dress, i wont become any better looking or make the person like me.. what's the point... (emo-ing..) but well a promise is a promise, and then the cash flow is on the loose end recently... so well.. maybe i might get a bit excited.. maybe..


ZZzzz....

A Thanks

If i were a grateful person, I would have realize life hasn't been that bad for me, in many ways, except on relationship, which is something that I have never really been able to say happily tat there is a guy who really loved me...

But other than that, my family are all healthy, got a job, and friends who really offer an ear a shoulder... especially friends I have only met once, I truly appreciate ur concern, for a almost stranger like me... thank you..

However, I still need someway to channel my emotional bits... so pardon me if i am still emotional.. I just want to make myself feel better for now..

**********************************************

Not sure if i ate soemthing wrong or all these are putting something bad on my body.. even my appetite is pretty irregular now... and worse.. stomach stirring very badly..

Still need time... i dunno..

To Smile?

Isn't there a quote that says there are always two side of a coin or something. It is our own choice to whether be optimistic or pessimistic. Like whether u see a cup as half gone or half filled... etc.. but it is easier said than done..

It seems pretty silly that although it happens only for a few days, but the feeling is affecting me so badly... Probably because the feeling of being someone's attention is really addictive. Someone to talk to you every few hours, someone who check what you are doing. Someone who tells you what he is doing. Someone who is concern if you get enough sleep. Even to the extend of using those very love-ish terms like "shoo, go to sleep".. Someone to say good morning and good night.. it's all the small little things.. Maybe i really missed this feeling... It has been so long...

And now.. when it is down to nothing again, I am suppose to be optimistic again? What should I cheer myself with? That I still hav lots of dates invitation? That the right guy is still out there somewhere and he is just not the one? But... it is not easy to really convince myself even that.. afterall all the anticipation and feeling build up... It is just really painful to even think of it..

I wish to smile, it is just a small action with a little effort from the mind.. but I realize it is so hard when i put my heart into it and break it..
