Can't think of a good title.

There is a 'someone' in my office whom I really feel sorry for.

He is a young man.. An active one to boot. But he lost his legs to an accident which happened during his NS days. What exactly happened.. I don't know.. But I do know that it must have hurt terribly for him emotionally and physically. He has never spoken to me. Nor has he ever smiled at me, or even glanced at me. Maybe he's just shy. Or maybe I'm just transparent. The thing is, it made me wonder.. How does it feel when you think you have it all, only to find that you lost most of it because of a misfortunate accident that could probably have been avoided?

How must he have felt? How must he have felt when he knew he couldn't use his legs anymore? How must he have felt when he realised he has to be on the wheelchair for the rest of his life? There is simply no way for him to walk again like before and this saddens me much.

Us lucky ones, who have the use of our arms and legs should put it to good use. We must love ourselves and our bodies even more! which is why I strongly feel that as long as we're able to walk and work, we should not be finding excuses not to!

There is another someone I knew of. He borrowed money from all who's willing to lend. No doubt he is 50 plus, I'm sure there must be some jobs available for him! It is just a matter of whether he wants to take it or not! God cannot help YOU, unless YOU help yourself. It's not like I look down on people who don't work. But, how is it that someone who has lost his legs, have more drive than someone who is still fully functionable? Get what I mean or not people? It's exasperating when I see people who are not old, disabled or mentally handicapped begging for money either from their relatives or outsiders! I'm even more angry at those who willingly, no.. make that stupidly lend them the money! I mean, once all of you stop lending them money, then they'll be forced to go work instead of having it easy!

Anyway, there is this toilet issue going on in my work place. I think I must have briefly mentioned it once or twice.. Anyway, there's blood stains on the toilet seat today!! Yesterday was shit on the floor.. Now this! What the hell man. Either someone has brought their dogs to work and allowed them to poo on the floor (the dog happens to be "in heat" as well) or they themselves are like the dogs. Sheesh! I cannot imagine how it is that educated people like them could behave in such an uncivilised manner!!!

I'll be leaving for Botak Jones now, so will blog about it again tomorrow.




Make Love, lots of it. Not War.

They say a smile a day chases the blues away.

I have a school girl's crush on one of the guys in my office. I thought he's very polite and very very good looking. But I don't think of having a relationship with him nor sleeping with him.. You know that sort.. No no.. It's not like that.

Anyway, I've confirmed my trip to Taiwan. I've got to really plan my first free day there well. The rest of the days will be hectic travelling from one place to another. Whatever it is, I'm really glad the trip's really happening!! I'll be leaving early morning Christmas. And I cannot wait to arrive there and take loads of pictures! I'm going to shop and eat till I drop!

Dying to pee now. Will blog again later if I have inspiration.

Make Love, lots of it. Not War.

NATAS- you'll have to experience it to believe it.

$300++ for fuel and extra charges. (faints)

Last year, during this time, for $300+ you'll be able to book a short getaway to Phuket. Ok, maybe you got to top up a little bit more. I can't believe when they told me the additional surcharges were around 300 plus bucks extra man! So a normal trip to let's say Taiwan (which is where I'll be going) will cost you $1200 inclusive of taxes! (flying by SQ) Initially I thought I'll be going Harbin, but ZW decided that Taiwan's a lot better. I prefer the cold places where I can play snow.. Nothing much la. But still..

So, I'll be leaving for Taiwan on Dec 25th and spending the X'mas there!! I do hope they have post X'mas sale lor. *Happy*

------------------

I'll be going to A-mei's concert with Jie!!! She's a good concert buddy and this time I'll be bloody wearing flats!! Heels makes me a little taller, but not too good for standing on chairs.. I'll also be bringing light sticks.. Didn't bring any to Air Supply's concert so won't make the same mistake twice.

Went chalet last Sat. I had fun playing with my younger cousins and bbqing. But I nearly cried while I was thinking of that someone missing from our big family. Uncle, we miss you and you're not forgotten. Amy Auntie is like the coolest auntie I've got. I don't wish to trade her for anyone else! We played Pictionary and it was so fun! All of us were damn kan cheong and kiasu to guess the word before anyone else does! Imagine all the screaming and shouting and slamming of fists and pulling of hairs. Hahaha~
I helped Ann to entertain the kids who came as well.. By kids I meant children under the age of 6. Man I tell you.. 4 screaming girls are really a handful! First they wanted to dance and scream like crazy and pose funnily and all that. It's perfectly fine if you're the one watching, but they make you do that as well. So in total we have 6 crazy screaming girls (including Ann) dancing(to no music in particular except for the weird tunes they were making up themselves) and posing and laughing all the way. It's real fun, but it's best to keep this nannying gig to the minimum. Therefore, I've decided that I'll make Candy babysit my kids in future! She could tolerate kids very well and single handedly baby-sat the 3 girls. Minus Jean. 3 is bad enough. (esp when they start fighting or screaming or constantly asking "why? Yah.. but why?") But nonetheless, I still love them very much and I would love to have my own kids in the very very near future.

Have to write in snippets. Coz too many things happened in such a short period of time.. Have to quickly vomit everything!! Pics coming up soon!
