Changed song to 小步舞曲 by 陈绮贞. I like the way she sang this song, especially the chorus part. Lyrics look meaningful too.

Today went to my relatives' wedding dinner. Well it's the same as any other wedding dinner, with videos of the events earlier in the morning, short speeches by the bride and groom and the customary 'yam seng'. However, going to the event itself made me feel that actually, I am not really close to my relatives. It's shown by the fact that I dunno the bride even though I went to her parents' house for cny every year and saw her each time. That in part could be because there's not many opportunities to meet up other than chinese new year(cny), whether due to work or that there's no reason to. As a result, there's not much contact with my relatives of my own age(or near), making me feel that I am almost a stranger with them. If not for meeting my nephew a few times due to luck, my contact with them would be basically nil. And it makes me wonder which relative will I invite for my marriage when the time comes (lol could be very long wait) if contact is so minimal. It also makes me envious of ppl who not only have contact with their cousins etc, they also went out to chill, hang around etc cos it shows how close their families are..

Small things here and there...

Took leave last Mon n Tue.. and ah, the nice feeling of stepping into an MRT train in the afternoon to few ppl and many seats to sit around. I realised then that I have forgotten the feeling of getting into a train after sch (whether to travel to orchard or whatever place). Now it does seem absurd, since sometimes I do travel in a near empty train when I return home frm camp in the evening, but there seems to be a subtle change in the atmosphere..possibly because the intentions of the people in the evening is different(going home, duh..). I also found that I took that feeling for granted in the past and actually viewed it as an entitlement; right now though I think it's more of a privilege. The main reason I forgot abt that feeling is because of exams... after exams don't care liao, afternoon morning night go out also can, no need worry abt next day sch.
But it's just 2 years since sch and I have forgotten about that feeling already.. makes me wonder just how many promises, things, memories are forgotten(possibly hidden somewhere deep within my mind, only to surface at times).
Anyway it rained on both afternoons, was a good time to take a nap although I didn't.

Went to buy a book in kino 2 weeks ago(sat), sandworms of dune. Finally the ending of the dune series, although there will surely be fans who are not happy with the writing. For me, I find it's quite alright for a science fiction book, comapred to frank herbert's writings though I think it's too simplified -.- . Need to reread the 1st 6 books though.. realised that I forgotten a lot of the story.

Anyways after tat went to watch lust, caution at PS. Gs was thought to be below 16 yrs old and the ticket usher almost wanted to check his ic, haha. Bought nanchos for the show and when it was about to end, I flipped the side containing the cheese downwards to close the plastic container and continued watching without noticing the cheese dripping on my bag -_-". By the time I found out, my bag was already stained along with my book(!). Damn suay, I put the plastic bag with the book between my legs and just nice the cheese dripped into it.. so now the bottom of my book has a yellow stain although there's no smell, no ants too haha...

Playing solitaire too when free...only draw 1 card per click n standard playing method of course.. I have to keep in consideration my sanity if I play the harder formats(very hard to win within 5-10 min too).

A lull

How time flies..2 weeks since my last post...losing interest in blogging perhaps? Quite regularly, I thought of making a new post, when on the way home, slacking etc, with lots of ideas/thoughts for the next post. However by the time I sit in front of the pc, all those thoughts/ideas seemed to have flowed out of my mind, I can't really grasp them no matter how I tried. Sometimes it's that I'm too lazy to type one out even though I have the feel (2am man..)That's part of the reason.. the other part is wow. Although I play the game, but I always try to discourage frens from playing it cos of its no-lifeness... a contradiction and an irony rite?
I also don't like to make drafts for posts.. somehow they will kind of stay at the back of my mind silently nagging me, until I totally forget abt them that is. Another thing is that I only told a few frens I got a blog, haha... unlike others who put it in their msn nick or change to different skins, I didn't do much at all. In a way this blog's a kind of private domain for my own thoughts and for frens to read when they want to, yet it's also accessible to the world or anyone to access it when they want to(accidentally or whatever reason). Yet another irony.
Changing the song too... one can only hear so much from the radio, haha..

I ought to think more on the titles for my posts... have a habit of not bothering to think about it anymore. Got sunburned today.. my hands and legs look like braised limbs already, already I feel a bit sick, mayhap it's the prelude to sickness.
Nothing much went on throughout last week, didn't go out except on saturday eat dinner with friend and sunday for kbox... expensive sia ($13). Went to lib to play ds after that and borrowed a book on the way too.
Recently, I felt more and more like I was stuck in a fixed position while everyone else has moved on, due to many others having plans after they ord, for studying and working etc, while for me? driving and it's not a commited plan...although when the time comes to actually go for lesson I wouldn't feel that way. In fact, I actually feel like going through with whatever plan that I have and look forward to them, the only problem is that I have almost none right now...
