Mr Incredible Says...

I am still alive.

It has been such a long time since I last blogged. Largely due to the fact that school has started and I'm really busy juggling school work, TAS work, Year Rep work and my part-time work (doing in-house graphic design, event management for Big Kid productions & communications)...

To be honest, I've lost the drive to blog. Mostly due to the fact of the lack of time but also facebook. Haha.
I will however try my best to blog. At least post up some photos of my recent HK holiday trip. Heh.

Hope everybody is doing well :D and i wish everybody a good start to the year :)

Cheers,
Tigger

I know its been a while since I lasted posted an entry.
Its partly cause I've been really enjoying life and partly cause I've been really lazy.
(Oh yah, and there's also the FACEBOOK re-addiction)

Anyway this post serves as a reminder to all out there, that its time to treasure your loved ones around you. Every single one you care about.

I attended the combined memorial service for the 5 dragonboat warriors who lost their lives in an unbelievable freak accident. Though I do not personally know 5 of them very very well, i've crossed paths with all of them and personallly know 3 of them through close frens. And to be honest I am very honoured to have known them, even if it was merely through face-recognition.

It has been a sombre day for me, the drive down from the office to Mandai.. was full of deep emotions.
And I dun even know how to re-account my experience at Mandai today. (I was in a complete mess during the cremation period, thank God for Biggs' shades)
until now, I can still hear the screams of grievience from the folks....

I respect all 5 of them. And I believe they are finally resting peacefully, in a better place.
They believed in each other and fought hard with gusto and passion in something they truly love.
Their departure is very upsetting and till now, I'm not sure if I'm witnessing a truth or a nightmare. But one thing that came out of this, is the bond of all pple from the dragonboat fraternity.

For the first time in my dragonboat career, I actually witnessed the whole dragonboat fraternity (from different schools, different teams, different walks of lives) all gathered to mourn, remember and honor the 5 warriors. It is indeed a revolutionary moment.

Boon San, Reuben, Stephen, Jeremy and Wei zheng - May you rest in peace always and you will always be remembered in the hearts of many.
God bless you always, amen.

We live on this Earth and its by God's hands that we make the friends and family we make. And from this, I believe that it is important we always remember those who have touched our lives and show care, love and concern to those we care about. This is the least we can for each other, before it is too late to say "i love you"

The feeling of my body is dead asleep but the mind is awake is really horrible.

Submission sucks!

People make mistakes in life (watch latest episode of Grey's Anatomy), just be sure when u make that mistake, you don't end up hurting someone that means a lot to u.

If not, think first, before you act.

With Aki frens at Sun, Moon (blah blah) Japanese restaurant. I always can't seem to get the full name accurately down.


Miss Oli looking dignified.


Me and Dan (i realised i suddenly dunno how to pose in front of a camera anymore)


Sun salad. (must try at the restaurant, probably the only thing i would really go back again and again for)


Scallop dish I and Oli ordered.



Look at the size of the scallop roe.

Loved the company, the few close aki frens who can accept me for who I really am. They bought me a cake and Oli gave me a lil gift. Was a sweet meal.



Team B Brunch.

Was at my favourite hangout - PS Cafe at Dempsey Road.
Unfortunately, i forgot to take photos of our outing but you can take a look at some of the pictures are crystal's bloggie.

here's the link. (http://funniecrys.livejournal.com/)

Got sick of hanging out in town, so just had to escape into a quieter place to chill. The food was good, the hangout was great :) except i wonder if my mates tot that it was a lil toooo ATAS for their liking (too pricey). But i reckon they enjoyed themselves.



Dinner + Dessert with MC and Ray and new friend, Darren.
Managed to meet up with MC and Darren for dinner at Ding Tai Feng. They are so sweet to accompany me on my pre-bday night. Though i still find the concept of me "Crashing" a friend's dinner appt with someone else a bit odd and strangely uninviting. But thank goodness I knew at least two of them.

Then it was Dessert at HK Cafe. And had heaps of fun jus bitching and joking about nonsense.

Thanks to bullfrog85 for the t-shirt gift and also to raydenz for his t-shirt gift!!!


(Awaiting family dinner tonight and also the returning of my baby - i miss you)

Anyways, to all those out there, thanks for the well wishes and to my friends, thanks for accompanying me :)

Me and miss wen at yesterday's matric fair

i look like scrawny lah!!!

:(


Mel

Haven't been clean shaven for about 1 year plus. Just trimmed and shaped it this past year.
But this morning i woke up.
And i decided what the hell just shave lah.

And i DID IT. I shaved my goatie. The very thing that is my personality. Haha. Never shaved it for anybody in my life. But i JUST DID. Ah well, all WORTH IT.

This was me a few days back,


Me now,



Now feeling a lil weird.

Mel

Took leave today just so i could rest from all the work i've been doing and generally enjoy a bit of life.
Going back to work tomorrow though but definately on a high.

At starbucks orchard now with lil Oli, life really can be good, if we take the time off to relax.
Been talking and chatting, people watching and a bit of shopping For the past few hours. Great stuff.

Going to have dinner appt later.

I wish everyday could be as good as this. Unfortunately, school is starting soon.

Sigh
