My new toy
And this is the first entry using my iPhone :) well well, there are really plenty of things tt I can do with it. For instance, I'll be on channelnewsasia in the morning on my way to work, access facebook during office hours and so much more. Sync it with my working email as well, I did told my colleague, nope, I'll purposely not read my emails although it's sync. Riiiiiight, work has become impossible to do tt now. He also commented tt my phone is impossibly red while I said d iPhone is stupid enough not to on itself for alarm.
This is my first present to myself n I nua-ed with it at home on my birthday. Lucky me has got great buddies who gave in to my brat-like tempers :x compared to last year which I have given myself a laptop, I'm counted stingy la hor... Haha :D thank you soooooo much!!!!
second gift? :) not sure if it is a gift yet.
Why is the raven like a writing desk? Yes, let's mock at the people who must have an answer to everything. :)
The Tinman asked: if I ask for a heart from the wizard, do you think he could give me one?
What am I talking about? I ain't Alice so there won't be six impossible things for me everyday.Labels: emo elmo

Sick
And I am down. Its weird how you never keep to your routines when you are healthy. Other than work, I havent got much things on my table and I actually tell myself that I should be in bed by 11 everyday, of course, if it gets earlier, that will be even better however, that is so difficult to accomplish.
Last night because I was sick, by 9.30pm, I was already in bed and it only took me 2 minutes to totally black out. 2 days MC and I spent my afternoon reading emails and answering phone calls. ya, they see your emails and they take the opportunity to call. Its good to see that you are needed and your absence is felt but after vetting a set of documents, I get so tired, I decided tomorrow will be no work for me. Of course, I will still read my emails but physically, I will be at home resting.
:) I spent my time with him today.
 He is so talkative and he resembles the young Xzavier. I try to stay away as much as I can but then I think he was the one who passed the illness to me.
I was also reminded of a taxi driver whom I have met weeks ago. He was a very jovial man who talked non-stop of how lucky his life is. It was 11pm when he picked me at my office and I was all tired after all those work. He asked if that was my normal timing, and if I am occupied till 11pm, how am I going to spend time with my loved ones. I told him I try to do dinner at home at least twice during the weekdays and he asked then weekends for boyfriend. I told him no, no boyfriend.
He asked a strange question, he asked if I have set my priorities wrongly because ultimately it is not my career who is going to stay with me for life, I should find someone special and this should be my top priority. Not like I have had a career to start with and not like I have no special someone in my life before but I told him it ended and subsequently, work just took over. Anyhow to keep the story short, this was what was impressionable to me:
TD: I have a lucky life because I have a wife who loves me and after all these years, I have been married for more than 30 years, I know she still loves me. You know how I know she loves me? She often tells me something. Make a guess what she tells me?
Me: Hmmm, I am lucky to have you by my side?
TD: HAHAHAHHAHA!!! What?!?!? No, she tells me I am lucky that I have her by her side. Nobody will be like her to want to hang around with me.
Me: HAHAHAHAHHA! ok...
TD: You know why that shows she loves me? Because she actually think I am very jialiat and she still wants to be with me, this means she loves me!
Me: HAHAHHA. ok.
TD: I will treasure her and I will make sure we grow old together. hmmm... but say like that say lah, but if one day, I lose her, .... aiya, life got to be happy, i will go find a younger wife.
Me: HAHAHHAHAHHAH!!!! Like that wan arr...
TD: Life is all about being happy mah, but I really want her to grow old with me and I really love her.
(-_-)'" And the story goes on about how lucky a person he is, his children and his grandchildren and I have a feeling his children actually gave birth very young and was married due to shotgun or something. He said something along that line, like how he was angry but looking at his grandson now, he said it was all worth it.
At the end of the day, I think it is really important to know and appreciate life as it is. Thats what he has taught me. I walked out of the taxi thinking how lucky I have been to have doting family members who stood by me as a family and spoil me rotten, friends who take in my nonsense and laugh with me and bosses and colleagues who have been very understanding towards me. I have been and still is pampered by these people. I am just short of that someone special who might or might not eventually come but otherwise, whats there to lament about life?Labels: emo elmo, happy happenings, Sick
