Busy Weekend

Had a past busy weekend, with times spent on movies, chat-and-sharing with colleagues and friends, and nice foods. Though I'm always expecting that there will be unhappy times during the weekend, but deep down inside my heart, I've actually prayed hard that it will never happen. Yet, my wish never came true.

It has became a norm that those unhappy events will repeat almost every weekend. I've cried, screamed, shouted, fought back hard and still, it never ends. Literally or not, I just feel that it will never end. I've started to get tired and numb over it, but couldn't stop wondering why is it so hard for me to get some peace in my life.
Fortunately, I have the special one, loyal friends, and also my family members behind my back. I could still enjoy my weekend, despite those unpleasant feeling I had.
Had dinner with colleagues on Friday night after work, and my days were lighten up even with just plain chit-chatting and a bowl of warm Kaisen Ramen. It was a pleasant night with colleagues, in a cozy restaurant with delicious Japanese food. Laughter and joy filled the air, I had a wonderful night spent with my colleagues.


Saturday:

My mood is good for the day, not only because I had a good sleep after dinner with colleagues on the night before, but also because I'll have a lunch gathering with the girls today.

We didn't meet each other for 2 years, almost no contact, except for birthday wishes. I was wondering how awkward the situation might be, for us to meet again after so long. But truth proves that I've think too much, because those feeling just came back to us as soon as we met. We chat, we tease and laugh... Yup, just like how we used to be. Glad to meet you girls again. ;)

Went for movie - The Four, before to have steamboat as dinner at my favourite steamboat restaurant - Hao Hao. It's just a nice day to me, with besties, movies and favourite food. :)

Sunday:

Spent half a day fetching Aunt Suit Lan to shop for Granny's daily supply and to treat her lunch at newly opened vegetarian restaurant - Loving Hut. Foods served were nice and fair price were charged. I do enjoyed the lunch.


(Clock wise)Jasmine Green Tea, Asam Laksa, Fried Tomato Spaghetti and Butter Mushroom.



Met the special one for movie - Dark Knight Rises at GSC, MV in the noon and later went for dinner at Plan b. Didn't expect that there's promotion undergoing for the cafe, so we had a worthy meal at the newly opened cafe. I'll let the picture tells the rest. ;)

Favourite of the menu: Iced Cuppocino, Wild Mushroom Soup and Smoked Salmon Sandwich. 

Later I went to Aunt Christina's for steamboat as supper. Felt guilty to have so many nice foods in a day, but can't help to take it, as it's so hard to resist the temptation. :p

I'm grateful to have my weekend spent equally, with friends, the special one and families; which later I turned it into my motivation to keep myself work hard in the coming week. Thanks everyone, for providing me another reason to never stop looking forward.

Says who?

She said I'm not among the smart persons, therefore I need to be more hardworking, if were to become one of them.

I couldn't remember when, but few years back, I heard something similar from him. He said I don't have the gift in studies, and suggested me to take another path.

And then, she said I have to pay more hardwork and attention in things I do, if I want to become someone outstanding.

Later, I found that she is so used to be my reminder. She couldn't help but to keep remind me on things I used to forget, until I can really bear that in mind.

Frankly, I appreciate the advices given by she, she, he, she... But please learn to respect, as how I respected you. Says who that you have the permission to give such comments on me?

Says who that you have the right to judge whether I'm a gifted person? Says who that you have the authority to say I'm not smart, while you think you were?

Says who that this is a fair world, while its actually not? I am... and that's when I learn more about this harsh world... So says who that I'm not a fast learner and couldn't pick up things fast?

Yes, I'll be upset with words you delivered, but I will still be me no matter how. Says who that I'm a optimist and happy person? I do...

静静地...

夜深了，人静了，思绪却在此刻开始活跃、清晰。从何时开始呢？变得喜欢在夜深人静时，静静地回想。回想今天、昨天、高兴、伤心，或思考明天、未来、担忧、顾虑。专家说，睡前不宜动脑筋，因为会影响i睡眠品质。 是吗？我只知道问题总是要被解决的，只是看时间长短而已，所以要是今天睡好了，明天又如何？该解决的，还是要解决的。

最近，生活都好忙。工作的日子，都在忙工作、赶进度；不工作的日子，就习惯性安排节目，逛街、看戏、喝茶、吃饭，只为了抓紧那有限的时间来减轻平日工作的压力和辛劳。不知觉的，这样的日子过了将近三个月。套一句老话，时光飞逝，半点不由人。

三个月里，请了三天病假，平均一个月一天，虽然其中两天是上星期刚请的。看了两次医生，吃了至少有6 种药，今天才终于感觉元气恢复了。病了闲在家的时候，想了好多。在想接下来的事，该怎么处理、该怎么善后。我不求有什么回报，只求可以明哲保身。但为何却感觉那么的难？

突然想起那时的天空，布满了星星，数量是我在小时候以外看过最多的。四周只有虫鸣和狗吠声，风很大，抬头仰望天际，黑得那么神秘、大的那么浩瀚， 像是蕴藏了无数的秘密。要是它真会说话，不知会说些什么呢？还真希望它告诉我们，关于人类的渺小。

好久没试过在这样的夜晚，静静地想、静静地写。思绪虽然清晰，但总算是平静的。心中的疑虑，还是不能一一消除。唯一能做的，就是继续相信。其实要的并不多，只想静静地做自己的事，静静地享受生活。不想打扰；也不想被打扰。这样，不是很好吗？

有时，真想来一次身心大解放。释放所有的负能量、释放最原始的自己；抛开那所谓的世俗想法、抛开那该死的规矩设定，远远地离开这是非之地，到别处去体验、探险。总在坚持相信，有一天我会做到的。

Outings with Besties

Paid a visit to the "place" with Hui on the other day, and it reminds me of those good old days. Surprisingly, those nice and sweet memories were obviously out number than those bad ones.

Went for brunch at Taiwan Dami, one of our usual hang out place during the old days. Days when we were still young, free and fearless. It's one of the place where we used to share secrets and thoughts, happiness and tears, foods and besties. We ordered two Ma-Lat Wantan La Mee, Fried Chicken Seasoned with Salt and Spice, and drinks. Effortlessly, those memories just came back to us the moment we saw the food. Despite of the bad happenings that strike on us, we really did had a great time spent together at the "place", didn't we?

Later, we had Fruit Rojak as dessert when we had a walk around the "place". Went for movie "Prometheus" at Jusco that noon, which appears to be the best substitute for sing k session. It's the place where we had most of our best memories, those time we spent at there during our sad times and break times between classes. It's also the place where we celebrated our 1st girl's valentine celebration.

We had a nice day spent at those places, just like the old days, but this time I'm sure we had both grown up to be more mature and thoughtful, as we know that we were no longer young and wild. I'm glad that we are still besties after all the changes in us through these years. ;)

Same place, same food, but different feeling.

We had another outings about 3 weeks later, just to meet up for chat-and-sharing. I like to name it as chat-and-sharing, instead of talk or chit-chatting. It's because I found that I have so many things to share with you. Dreams, thoughts, worries, joy, plain bored or lame jokes, you named it, we've had it. ;p

Just 2 cups of Gong Cha, and we could chat for 2hrs+. I think that's what true friend meant to be, she is someone that we could trust and she is someone that we could reveal our true self without worry to be laughed at. :)

Gong Cha - Peach and Passion Green Tea.
