Fuping hosipitalised

      Its been kind of strange recently. Another friend of mine is now hospitalised, awaiting for operations. But being brain operation, there is a certain risk of the operation. His mum is strong, facing a child feeling tired & frustrated over sitting on bed for months. Lack of shower... Fuping slims down a lot. He looks more energetic yet... his speech became more blur. He could not recognise me. But i am not sad as he can still remember HangMing, Weiping, Liquan & their friend Wen Hao. I know him for the shortest time, among the 5 of us.

      His memory loss was worrying. He couldn't remember things that we just told him... couldn't remember which day it is that day... forgotten he got his driving license... psp... couldn't even remember he replied my sms. I kept receiving his sms replying to the same sms i sent him on FRI. Watching him really make me feel down. But seeing his mum being so strong, who am i to be sad and down? we tried to encourage him to think positively. If everything goes according to plan, he can operate on Thurs & go home the week after.

      All i could do now is pray & pray for him to recover soon. Sleeping in hospital for 2 months isn't fun. Not allowed to leave his bed is worse~! All my friends out there, take care of yourself. I do not wish to see any more people get into this kind of situations. Teak care~!

Body Aching

      Arghhh~!! My body is aching~! That was thanks to the fully packed schedule over the past 3 days. Over the last few days, i baked a cake with a friend, went to chalet overnight, helped my friend move house, visit a friend in hospital, before going to work... I am real tired now... can't get enough sleep & couldn't sleep in the day again...

      Jin requested my help once again to celebrate his 6 month anniversary with his girlfriend as he planned to bake a cake himself for his love one. Hence, he required my kitchen & my assistance despite the fact that it has been an awful long time since i last bake something, not to say cake. We opted for the ready mix ingredients that required us to add in fresh ingredients only. We did alright~! But i would prefer the cake itself to be more tastier. Maybe the mixture wasn't supposed to be sweet as its pictured with those cream. Anyway, i woke up damn early to go NTUC to get his stuff hence did not get enough sleep and almost fall sick. Popping 2 Panadol Cold did help a little.

      Up next... 2D1N Chalet & BBQ. Being the team on OFF that day, my supervisor made full use of us from checking in to getting the food ready. After getting the food from the carpark to the chalet, we had merely an hour of rest before starting our 'work' again. Whole night walking from the entrance of the chalet to our chalet. It may sounds near but it is definitely NOT NEAR~!!! Our chalet was situated inside Block L which is the innermost block of the whole chalet compound. Hence, walking in and out of the chalet is a tiring job. My leg was aching. But still i enjoyed the night a lot, forgetting those minor upsets. This was specially due to the hyper on CELL FA members. Doods came late but did most of the job from BBQ-ing to photo taking & even make me go into his reality TV program live... Interviewing us about our recent pay raise, bonus & comments about our bosses.

      Team A are fun loving people. My daughter, Cai Lei, was crazy and hyper active. This was her first chalet ever and was so excited over it. Right from the start when we stepped into the room, she jumped... rolled... hopped... laughed... erm... basically anything you can think of a child getting excited. Mark & Bo Bo makes up the rest of my shift team members. We had our intimidating times... I am sure that you will think those at the BBQ are ALL GAYS~!!! as we did took alot of photos, having fun... totally forget about our image. That is what FUN is all about. I was so shy that day, getting kissed... or even have a food in between Mark's & my mouth. *laugh* But soon the embarrassment was turned into sporting play.

      We did KTV at night over in the newly built shopping mall at the Downtown East. Sing our lungs out, jumping around... 5 person (TEAM A~!!) occupying a 15-persons room. IMAGINE~! Oh yeah~!!! Its like we are having our very own concert there... too much room to fool around. That was fun. Before the ktv, we even spend some time at the Arcade. It was okay though. Quite a while since i last went to an arcade. After the KTV, we are so tired. BUT most of us did not sleep after reaching back in our room. We played pokers, playing PSPs, and even managed to catch the romantic, beautiful sunrises. Its real nice... Too bad, photos aren't ready to be posted up. Even if it was ready, i will need to filter those protected contents. *laugh*

      Only slept for 1-2 hours that night, we went bowling in the morning... of course, we enjoyed ourselves as we fight for glory. As usual, i was not the MVP. i couldn't last for 3 games. Too tired. Whole body aching... While most of them get to rest after the lunch, i had to go and help Cai Lei to move her stuff over the new house. I was forced to do it... Sadly, but managed to catch some sleep over at her place while she was packing. Her friends are friendly and make me feel welcomed. Get home only at 12am to FINALLY ends my non-rest days. Its tiring, but i really enjoyed my few days with them.... If time permits... maybe we will do it AGAIN~!

Interrupted Weekends

      Aching all over... That's what you get when you starting doing some sports after months of absence... I went bowling yesterday. It supposed to be fun... it is quite ok but... i feel a little demoralized over the fact that i lost the feel i had in bowling... The movement was still okay... but the swing & the control is no longer there... the ball did not end on the place i wanted... or is it because my analysing skills have gone... But its okay, maybe due to my lack of sleep? maybe due to lack of practice? haha... finding excuses for myself over here. At least i managed to hold off Jack's challenge and maintained 2nd spot... merely... May bring my ball over to Jack's working place to re-condition and also rent a locker there... since we normally play there.

      Last few days did not have my rest properly, my team mates called at the wrong time and cause me to be a little upset. Okay, she was facing some problems... and i am there for her lar... but my sleep was interrupted... Movie was interrupted... and keep on sms-ing me... haha... i scolded her... haha... make me spent time with her till wee hours... but i dragged Mark down... hehe... So still okay, someone to be there walking with me home. Though not to my house, but almost half the journey... Hence not lonely... haha.. i am really beat when walking home... real tired...

      Watched the movie, You Don't Mess With the Zohan, with Dingze & Jack after the bowling. It was entertaining... but a little too much... erm... nonsense? But overall, still okay... kinda interesting to see such a movie to be on our big screen... Guess its stretching our limits for movie screening... The short clip asking us to turn off our handphones by Money No Enough II was kinda interesting. Though i do not like Mark Lee but he and Henry Thia was funny enough... haha... Remember to catch this ads in the movie theater.

      My once-in-a-while weekend off ended with a gathering between Kangwei, Vivian & Xinyi. Kangwei looks better & more handsome with this hair'do while vivian looks as radiant as ever... its been a long time since i last saw this two... This time round, both are less hyper as before... maybe all are tired at our own life... I tried hard to up the beat... but slowly lost the power... How to be hyper over 4 hours (or 3) when all people around you aren't doing the same? Xinyi needs to remove her negative ions soon... haha.. a little too much for me to handle le... No hard feelings but hey, my positive ions are almost neutralised thanks to your negative ones... haha... If continues like that ah... i had to think thrice if i am meeting you up < le hor... And i am serious about this... sometimes, i really feel tired when looking at her most-of-the-time-the-world-owe-me-money face...

      Anyway, its time for me to grumble over my weight again... haha.. really feel my fats again today... I had been NATO (No Action Talks Only) recently... need to find the motivations & start soon... Aiight, Time for me to force myself for a run now...

不一样的休息日

这两天我过的还蛮不错的，还蛮有意义的。我表弟Berwin，在上个星期得了‘水豆’号称Chicken Pox。也因为这点，他无法和他家人一同到Genting去玩。这对一个六岁的小孩来说是个多么残忍的事情啊！ 因此我决定下去陪陪他。从Ashton手上拿了PSP后，便从兀兰直往Pasir Ris。

当然，他见到我并没有马上开心起来，脸超级黑。在不断的跟他说话，烦他后，他终于开始有些回应。当我静静的在一旁做着时，他时不时会传头偷偷眇我一下下。我当然也假装没注意到他，继续静静地看着荧光屏，看他在玩的游戏。哈哈，我表弟可爱吧?也许他觉得内疚吧。结果真的如我所料，他因为太闷，没人陪他，而闷闷 不乐的。

这孩子还挺会装酷的。当我问他要不要玩我刚买的PSP时，猜猜他说什么?哈哈，他竟然说"随便"。你说，气不气人啊?哈哈。竟然是新买的，我当然需要把他安装好才能使用。在我安装的当儿，他还传过来看了看，也许怕灯光不足（房间没开灯，没开窗，联窗帘也拉上了），他有尝试掀开一点窗帘，但还是没用，因为玻璃并不是 透明的。好啦！之后心情当然变好了。玩游戏常赢我，能不开心吗?我可是‘老玩同’好不好！我当然有让让他啊，但我得承认他也不赖啦...

第二天果然不同在我还没到的时候，向我阿姨问起了我，是否会来他家。见到我也显得开心多了。不过我妈和阿姨好过分哦！要用我来骗他吃他不喜欢吃的马蹄和喝他不喜欢的Barley Drink。联我都觉得不甜的饮料，他＝哪里可能喜欢，是吗?

这两天的休息日，就花在这孩子身上。不是被逼而是发自内心的。说实在的，这算是我首次为家人或亲戚朋友做的事情。平时我并不善于表达我的心意，也许是‘大男人’在作祟吧。即使心里有一套想法，但始终无法从口而出。我是不是蛮没用的?哈哈！没办法啦，不能怪我，这就是我。不善于表达的小亮。

身体在近期并不是很好。病了足足两到三个星期，才有起色。以前只许一两天的病，现在却花那么就得时间，身体果然变衰落了许多。从感冒到泻肚子，没运动的我有明显的增胖了许多。现在的我，拥有一个可以象电影‘功夫熊猫’里的主角，用肚子来把所有的敌人弹掉！打便天下无敌手！是时候慢慢恢复我的体能了。

恭喜‘星光３’的黄静伦，为国争光，进入五强。最近看了两期的PK赛，发现了一位很不错的选手来PK。来自‘原视音雄榜’的曾静玟，令我打掉眼镜。歌声似Ella, A*Mei的动人，音域，所唱的歌曲能打动人心。听了都会想哭。难怪能成功的PK掉两名‘星光３’的选手，我很看好她。希望在‘原视音雄榜’能胜出。对了，她有点象第一届‘校园Superstar’里的Geraldine。很棒哦！

The third one... farewell...

What's going on with the world today? At an age of 24, i should be attending weddings, graduations, celebrations etc. But yet, i heard news about death... China world-shakening earthquakes... Myanmar tragic typhoon... and now... the news about the departure of my friend, Hazel Xu. Its pretty saddening. Having my third friend leaving us within 2 years or less. But i long learned to move on... live on...

To be honest, i do not have the rights to be that upset. Maybe a little bit about me & her. Both of us are primary school friends. To be exact, we are classmates for only 2 years. That's after primary 4 streaming exam, where i was in one of the worst EM2 classes. I do not have any problems with any of my classmates then... so of course, we soon became good friends.... you know? those friends whom they always tease each other? I remember being called by her 'Ta Tou Tic Toc'. Its a name from a character in mediacorp serials then... This was the most clear impression of her in my mind. I tends to forget people when too long never meet up as people do change. As for her, i still can remember this. It shows that we do have some good times together... But that was then...

After moving on from primary school, we all got separated into different schools. We do not have technology like Handphone then... that we could update each other via sms... we need to call up each other etc. Hence, slowly we lost contacts... i never met any primary school friends since my secondary school days... even if i do saw one or two, i will not have the courage to call them. I was pretty 'zhi bei' then... largely due to my failures in getting good results in PSLE or secondary or even due to my size... haha... might be due to the reason of not meeting up, i did not feel as devastated as i heard about the late Jeremy or even the late MingHui. But who can really take it when you know someone you know passed away, needless to say someone you used to be close with.

Life is always so unpredictable. Why be affected by things you couldn't change? Don't get that affected. Live your own life. Be sad only for your own failures, but only be sad for awhile. Time wait for no one... The world will not stop rotating for you... even for one split second. We need to get up and move on... Live life to the fullest. Who know when i will be gone from this world? Make an impact on the people around you. Positive impact. Help others, be their listeners, do whatever you can within your abilities. Only then, when we leave this world, we can be proud and say, there is some great achievements in my living life. not merely some qualifications or awards...

As for Hazel, i will remember those times we had together. Though its a pity that we did not meet up for years... but still the memories are fresh in my mind. The three days you spent in hospital may be the toughest times you had in this world, but i hope at the minute your heart beats stop... you leave with a peace of mind... no regrets in this world... if fate permits... hope that next life, we can be friends still... Thanks for the memories...

Rest in peace, Hazel...
