Somehow, this 2 little simple numericals seem to get lotsa sensitivity lately. You can bet your money on it.
A fellow blogger had lamented on her hitting the big three -- three zero -- real soon (in a few more days). I remembered I did hit the panic button when I was to reach that point. Did the same when the fourth button was well within touch. In fact, the richter scale inched up. So, I bet there will be earthquake when the big five approaches.
So, what's the deal with three zero?
It is the number in your bank account (in any order).
It is just another number in your report card (of any kind).
It is the time you spend heart and soul to learn another soul.
It is the longest you may ultimately wake up to find you are not alone in this world. Or rather, the best you stay a hermit.
It is the reality that dawns upon you that you are redundant and no longer belong to the tribe.
So, what if you have many other three zeroes in life? The past is a stamp: not to be erased with mutiny. Today is the present of the past. Tomorrow is the embrace of today.
What is so difficult about embracing that? Pride? Ego? How much are they worth? I am totally dumbfounded.
Thus, three zero can be anything under the sun. It is for me to know, for you to find out. Oh, just a little reminder: the truth may be too much to stomach.
p/s 1. Well, your trusty old blog is still the best. You won't get your comment(s) deleted, especially by some one with negative intelligence or perhaps cowardice. Oh yeah, I must remember they are not of the same league.
p/s 2. I don't use bombastic and grandiloquent words. However, I do believe it may prove insufferable to some. Hence, if comprehension tantamounts to climbing Mount Everest, just get lost.

什么是谷底？
我知道今年我犯太岁，运程是属倒霉，可是也不用这么背吧？
上个星期，出席了一个讲座后，乘搭的士回公司。抵达时正准备还了车钱要下车，老天就即刻倾盆大雨。中多多都没那么准 :(。虽然有雨伞，也湿了一大半。
给一个朋友献上迟来的生日祝贺，却成为被“蒜”的机会。简直是狗咬吕洞宾。
种种的小意外，如，切菜却被刀割伤、做任何事都得绕上几个圈才能完成使命、脾气上得超快、思绪很悲观、即使做了很多准备功夫，总是会有程咬金，等等等。
再能沉得住气，我也快爆炸了。。。
救命。。。。。。

搔词弄字
树 不懂一个人的孤单
花 不能解读美的诱惑
海 不能感知情的流逝
花 不能解读美的诱惑
海 不能感知情的流逝
周末。
看到林宥嘉的《神秘嘉宾》的MV，写着如此“诱人”思维的字幕，让我很佩服台湾人的才华。我果断地断定作品是出之于台湾人的手，应该也不为过，我们哪有如此的人才？有啦，梁文福老师是一位。唔。。。也只有这样而已。
无论如何，很感谢我能、我会欣赏。

St Valentine's Day
I think I am a hopeless sucker for romanticism, that is, if there's such a word.
Just finished watching "Music and Lyrics" on HBO and this is the upmteen times that I have watched the movie. I just just just love the music! And, it's Valentine's Day today! Woah, I feel so so so romantic.....
Went shopping today and wherever I turned, there would be some youngsters carrying those pretty wrapped bouquets of flowers -- red roses, purple tulips, bright yellow sunflower, and even bears. Yes, a bouquet of bears. So cute! I couldn't stand it. I felt so old! Had just lamented to My Significant Other during lunch at 欣叶, his first bouquet of flowers to me was 9 years ago. The first and the last. As usual, he would say, to him every day is V-day....yah yah yah....
Anyway, it's Valentine's Day, I don't wanna spoil my romantic mood :). Gonna dwell in those happy moods for the rest of the night....
Happy Valentine's Day!

回到原点
观看了最后一集的《团圆饭》，突然间恍然大悟，过年就是一切回到原点。
春节已过了十一天，似乎很安静。前几天拜天公的时候，亦有同感。四处皆肃静，仿佛一切都进入冬眠状态。
十年一轮，这回的世界性金融危机颇有震撼力，一波接一波，似乎未见谷底。心中有点不安，隐隐觉得另一场暴风雨正储心积虑地酝酿着。
难道真的得回到原点？

一种米养百种人
Our neighbouring country just had had their General Election on last Saturday, 03rd March 2008. The big hooha is although the ruling party Barisan Nasional (BN) had won, but in reality, they had lost.
It all boils down to complacency and taking things for granted. Of course, how can politics be so simple and clean? Well, it is not my intention to touch on polictical issues here. After reading all the news, it just strikes my mind it is good to be part of the red dot.
Where on earth can you find another place that sees existence of multi-racism, multi-religion? Not that I know of, but correct me if I am wrong though. For our neighbour, Chinese and Indians are not given equal status, at all levels, including education. Couple with the clash with the Indian community right before the GE, do you think BN still has the chance to return triumphantly? I doubt so.
What really sickens me is the insolent remarks made by their "infamous" ex-premier Dr M. God, he is either senile or he loses a screw somewhere up there. To think they are in the same party, aren't they all the more should support one another, for good and for worst??? Incredulous!!
A friend of mine who has made his base in HK, rattled off list of complaints to me weeks ago. His job requires him to fly pretty frequently, so he presumably and with pomposity, thinks he has seen the BIG W-I-D-E world. He screamed into my ears (no joke) why this why that, China is so big, Singaporeans are shallow minded, blah blah blah.....Sorry, but I really do not, and could not be bothered to, remember his exact words. What I do not comprehend is: if he has seen the world, where did all these complaints stem from???
C'mon, we are not born equal, how to expect each and every one of us to have the same perspective on each matter? There are people out there who can't barely bring home a proper meal and know not what tomorrow holds for them, and you want them to think with a bigger heart? You must be joking!
We are blessed as we are able to see the various parts of the world, but that does not equate us to have a louder voice. If we are wise enough, count our lucky stars. And, if we are wiser, emulate the goodness/excellence of others and take not the dregs of the worst.
Complacency kills the wisdom. If it is a lesson to be learnt, so be it. Take it in your stride and move on. Stop being such a pompous pig, and just shut up.
