Friends For Thought..Can't LIVE w/o Them ; )

Had the best hair-day yesterday!! Ever since I cut my hair 2 weeks back, I never had a good hair-day. The uncle cut so short at the top and my hair has to be comb back like Shanghai Tang. Hahhah…but now, it’s better and today I also had good hair-day. Kekeke…so happy! :p hope it will continue to CNY & Forever!! Hahahaha…had a good skin-day as well..everything’s been so nice and good :) I think I’ll be even “prettier” after my brow-trimming and micro-dermabrasion. Like what Jo said, I will be prettier than her..hahaha…so nice hor ; ) *we’ll be pretty together ok…kekek..*

If you girls wanna go for cheap brow-trimming, go to Lucky Plaza #03-54, Eternal Beauty. Only $5!! Where to find?! It’s good recommendation from Jo. My appointment will be this coming Sat, so I’ll kiv you girls after that ya. Will comment on the skills for you. :p Then after that will be my micro thingy. (that’s what Jo called it..hahahah) Lucky got slot loh, if not will be in March liao. I counted my lucky stars!! Kekeke…so happy!! Yippee!! :p feeling all girly again…

Really feel happier when I’m with my friends. Even compared to the past (when Irene & myself are still happy together), the companionship from friends is different and to me, it’s very precious. I will just light up and become more chatty and cheeky. :p Most probably becoz I feel more at ease with them and we complement each other’s strengths and weaknesses. We are so good in a group. Almost impenetrable. :)

Lastly, when Jo told me how happy she was when she came over to retrieve her stuff, I feel very sweet loh. Don’t know why, but just feel sweet loh. And she stayed less than 5 mins! So far, no one has said that to me. Not even Irene (she will feel envious coz she can’t get this at her home..maybe more on the jealousy side though). My folks are always extra nice to her, just like she’s their daughter. I always feel very comforting when my friends can communicate so well with my family. But this Jo ah, always very chatty and all my aunties also know her. Hahahah…though she didn’t visit for quite some time now, they still emit the same warmth as ever. Maybe they should keep her as god-daughter. Hmmmm…a food for thought.

A New J&J is in town!!

A new J&J is in town. It’s Jo & Jo…eh…to be premise, it’s Jo(anne) & Jo(seph) kekek…a budding love is in the making and the latest news were crazy!! He made the 1st move!! I shall not take the glory of announcing it. Shall leave it to the owner to tell you folks. Kekeke… :p

Seems like my bestest friends have ‘J’ in their names. Jed & Jess and now, Jo & Jo. I’m fated with Js and the number 17. hahah…coz my previous girlfriends’ and my wife’s birthday falls on 17th. What are the odds!!!??? Unbelievable. It’s more than 1/1,000,000. it’s more like 1/1,000,000,000!! Anyway, I’m not important now. Everyone’s been fast to tie the knot. Another girlfriend of mine may hold her wedding this year-end. Seems like everyone is rushing into this. Is it the “clock’s” ticking or the ultimate act of love? I’ll let u decide.

In a nutshell, all love is great. Pursue it and you shall reap rewards. You go, girl!!

A Modern Day Peter Pan..can I truly be one??

I feel the need to write. Write about anything. Need to get the “thing” out of my system! What thing, I don’t know, but I know I just need to write to relieve myself of this boredom, stifle-ness, and more locally apt, sian-ness. Whenever I feel this way, I’ll write. Either this or watch my tv and play Football Manager at the same time. In the past, I would go to the arcade and shoot some bad guys, but now I seldom do that. Maybe becoz I’m working and no time for that anymore. Somehow I always credit all the restrictions and bad phenomenon on her. I just feel bitter lah. Marriage seems to restrict my life instead of enriching it. Now I realize I’m not suited for this holy matrimony. At least not now. Not in the next 5 years.

I don’t wanna blame her for the rest of our lives together. I may become (but highly unlikely) a wife-beater eventually. If that’s the case, she better move aside before I transform into that, sooner rather than later.

I’m feeling vexed about my marriage ever since we tied the knot. Even more so in the last few months. There’s really a knot in my chest, waiting for me to untie. Only me. I can’t breathe at times and I feel I’m going crazy. I just can’t take this lying down. It’s like forcing it down my throat. I reckon no one can understand what I’m going through except those who have been in my shoes, and I don’t expect my pals to understand as well. It’s way out of their league and rather not imposes on them on such matters. I still want them to view me as the fun-loving and jovial guy who brings joy rather than gloom and sadness. I want to be Nick again. The same Nick 5 years back and even 10 years back. He’s such a nicer person and down to earth. And he still is! But now, he’s hiding within the other Nicks’ that I portray everyday to other people. He’s suffering and I’ll try to bring him out whenever I can and as long as I can. I’m trying to cut down the number of façades, to show people the real me, but mostly just take advantage and the real Nick will just hide back in the closet.

I liken myself as the modern day Peter Pan. The kid who refuses to grow up and ignored the things that they expect him to know. On the outside, I’m maturing (i.e. getting older), but on the inside, I’m still a kid. A kid with little expectations and fun is the appetizer, entrée and dessert, every single day! I’m still not prepared to be an adult. I can father a child, but he/she would most likely to be me. Another Peter Pan or Wendy. I would want them to grow up in a restriction-less environment and let their creativity runs wild. I want them to have the things that I can’t have and beyond. At the same time, teach them the ways of the world to prevent others from hurting them. Always be truthful to oneself and live life to the fullest. That should be their motto for life, not mine. ‘coz mine’s always decided…It can’t be undone…I’m weak and I caused the downfall of myself and I blame no one.

All said and done, I wouldn’t want my children to be like me, would I?

Irene's 30th Birthday

Yesterday, celebrated Irene’s 30th birthday. The big 3 ‘O’. The location was perfect as the amenities were of abundance and lotsa shopping for the girls. Most importantly, everyone had a good time. :)

Deep down, I was actually relieved. Relieved, because I’ve come full circle in terms of organizing birthday parties for every single friend (close ones) of mine, including hers. A giant load was removed and I felt liberated, literally. I feel I’ve done my part and it’s time for me to die. There’s nothing more I can contribute and it’s time. Time for me to seek greener pasture and start this cycle again. It’s like I’m Charlize Theron in Sweet November, whereby she’s dying and seek a new man every month to help them realize the simpler things in life and spend time with their family and loved ones, instead of digging in their heels deep in their work. When the time’s up, she’ll let him go and he becomes a better man.

She’s selfless and only wanting the world to be a better place with the little time she has on Earth. I totally feel her thoughts and being in her shoes is tough, but someone has to do the dirty job. I just feel it gotta be me :p I hope I can carry on that legacy with whatever capacity I have and help as much as I can.

Love is Sweet..Hot & Sexy..I WANNA FALL IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN!!

I wanna fall in love all over again!! I even dreamt about it last night! The setting was in Paris @ an al fresco café along the riverside. So idyllic, so comforting. Somehow, I always dreamt of Caucasian girls. Oh well, they are my dream partners all this while. Kekeek…it’s all Jo’s fault! All the talking about the thrill of budding relationship makes me drool with envy. Hahahah…but I’m really happy for her. Happy that she found a new love (I got a gut feeling it will bear fruit. Confirm!) and a new goal in life. She’s gushing with “awwwww” and “ahhhh” whenever the doctor is asked or mentioned. 1st time on the phone and it lasted 45mins! What does that tell you my friends? It’s OBVIOUS!! Both of them are obviously attracted to one another. Awwwwwwwww, it’s so sweet….I can’t take it. I WANNA BE IN HER SHOES ALSO!! The infatuation of romance is so strong that sex can’t hold a candle to it. So good hor…I wish I can be in her shoes.

Just hope she’s gonna have a wonderful life hereafter. ; )

I just feel these people keeps me happy and hope I can get to know them..hopefully :p Oh ya!! And she must stay within 1km of my home radius..hahahaha..it’s not impossible. Just need more effort & LOTSA LOTSA Luck.

Kudos to my dearest girlfriend, baby sista, good buddies for being here for me in 2007 and continuing to stay here in 08 as well. Love ya lots!!
