all about work...

this is definitely one of those entries written out of sheer impulse.

after reading D's blog on his awesome summer, sure I did feel happy for him to be enjoying every single moment of it.

I am envious of those who took courage to step into teaching.

I'm one of those who prefer to explore the big world out there, have fun then settle into some place comfortable at the later part.

Weeks ago, Brian shared the plans he had laid out for 2009 productions.

Before Wizard even started, he already thought of writting a play for Nov '09.

I was indeed impressed and am filled with sincere admiration for him because he is so talented, creative and has the gift for producing quality plays all from his heart. No one, thus far, can beat this great boss of mine.

I hate the thought of this, but I know quite likely, I'm already hooked to this company. Everyday's a challenge but once you see your plans materialising, it's a sense of gratification no one else, other than yourself, can understand.

I've stuck a little card on my macboard that says "People with goals succeed because they know where they are going". When I put it there five months ago, I stared at it everyday bearing selfish intentions of leaving anytime to my desired industry.

As I looked at it today, i knew my plans were different. Big plan I have, that is to 'sell' my director and my company to my utmost capability. How? I really don't know yet. But I will soon.

We all know actors living in Singapore cannot survive on acting alone. That's pretty much the same to the people working behind the scenes. Though I still get mom instigating me to get a better paying job or one that allows me to travel as frequent as Ivy does... I just brush it off knowing she probably doesn't understand.

Tough. But probably I'm still safely guarded under the wings of my parents where I can pursue my selfish desires and passions in an industry that doesn't feed me well enough.

we'll see.

the BALListic ironies

no matter how much men gets crazy about the physical aspects of women, there's bound to be something they bitch about women.

"they're so petty,

so hard to please,

so materialistic,

so naggy,

so emotional,

so scheming..."

and the list goes on.

if I happen to overhear the list of adjectives, I probably would have thought they are talking about themselves! @_@

this is what I call, men of double standards.

I thought it was a good idea to hitch a ride home with dad since i finished a meeting nearby.

The 20 min journey was... .... .. thrilling.

And he asked where I learnt (hell) driving from when I am the one behind the wheels!!!

Gosh~

You see, that's where I got my inspiration to title this post.

HE..

cuts three lanes at once,

hits the breaks at the last second,

zooms to the front of the queue and filters,

changes lane abruptly w/o signalling

and HE flips when I do all of that...

That is the perfect example of a Double Standard MAN!

and sadly, my dearest dad is my subject victim in this entry when clearly, i was trying to point my fingers at certain males.

(and I love you still, dad... just don't stop picking me up :P)

of course, the battle between men and women will never end.

who's the best? who's the pettiest? who's the smartest? who's greater than who?

oh, whatever!

if that keeps the conversation going, so be it.

Men will NEVER understand women, neither do we know NUTS about men.

Then again, that's the beauty of it. All the more we want to know what we have yet to know.

That Girl

Missy Lor sent me her homemade cover version of That Girl...

As a fan of hers, I requested to have it up on my blog to tell the whole world how good she is :)

Extremely talented, musically inclined, witty, clever, sporty, out-going, fun loving... she plays almost any instrument you can find in a rock band.

I am not shy to say, she'll be the girl I will woo if I am a guy.

You go girl!

Oh tonight I'm feeling fine
I'm alone just wasting time
no Friday movie nights or romantic candlelight

I'm just having conversations
with the thoughts in my head
all I hear are angels crying
oh won't they just sing instead
It would be wrong for me to say

I don't need that girl by my side
I don't need that girl in my life
I don't want to talk it out
or hold her when she cries

I don't want to say she's my kind
I don't want to say that she's mine
I don't want to tell her
that I love her more than life
more than life,
love her more than life

Honestly, this won't do
how is she doing?
I tell myself I'm feeling swell
but I know I'm such a fool
I'll take it as a new beginning
but you know I don't feel that way
who will take all this pain away?
I know it's wrong for me to say

Talk about a sin
was the day I walked into the other side
I would run back in
I wouldn't waste no time
I know it's wrong for me to say

Da:ns Festival 2008

Time to get your arse out of the couch and boogie! :P

Tell me if you wanna boogie with me. I'll be waiting!

Miss-UnderStood

Christians are probably the most misunderstood people in the world.

we ARE humans after all.

while we mind our own business, the world criticises our every wrong.

how tough it is to apologise and say,

'we were just being UnChristian at THAT moment'

it's like a blood-stained white cloth that can never be washed clean.

Now we know.

A delightful email from the MAN.
If you have seen OUR dentist, you probably would appreciate this letter all the more.

I couldn't help but grin soooo much while reading the last red-coloured words "I heart you"!

God! He'll be the last person on earth to ever say that!

But that was incredibly sweet.

Looking back, this group of sweetahearts are the most incredible people & God certainly has put the strangest combination all together.

It's almost a 4 year relationship that went through tulmultous moments where we practically felt like scratching each other's eyeballs out sometimes...

I can envision our lives together in Faith for the next ten years and nothing I would give all these up for.

Truth is, it really isn't easy finding people you can click with and to just lie amongst one another, no words said, THAT is the most beautiful moment.
