I was brim full of excitement to meet the girlies for an evening of solidly-weaved, good o fashion comedy musical. Victor/Victoria was so brilliant that there wasn't any speck of soporific moments. Not only was it a heartfelt piece of entertainment, it explored the clash issues of homosexual and heterosexual lifestyles with a touch of humour. There were just so much to admire.

End of year season = holiday mood = feasting = merry making = so many things to do = too little time =(

As we are approaching the end of marathon season, please tell me that I still have time to train for the impending final two races which are going to happen soon in two weeks time. The gloomy weather didn't help one bit. Instead, it made me settled into a quiescent phase and copping out on thoughts to bring the miles in. Argh.

So, determined to set off on the right foot, I joined baby and friends for a morning jog at MacRitchie Reservoir. It was a pleasant and quiet one, with the weather smiling good. Except that the forest trail was carpeted with mud, thus making the run rather challenging. The guys helped to push my limit further by making me going a wee bit faster, in order to keep up to them. In that respect, I'm really grateful. Really =)

We caught our first Chinese film on the big screen over the weekend.

While I know nuts about Texas Hold'em, I managed to get some easy enjoyment out of the show. All because I get to see Louis Koo bare-chested in a bath scene. hurhur =) Of course, the all-so gorgeous female cast was much to ogle at too. Storytelling aside, the film did a good job by giving us a portrayal of refined Macau and a glimpse of contention with life in its people, no matter what their net worth. It's not just all about Portuguese egg tarts. I love the decent humour and charismatic interaction between the male leads. Then again, some might find their homoerotic attraction too much to handle.

Sunday was dinner with the paternal family members at Ten Mile Junction. I love bonding time such as this, when we managed some quality time catching up with our unceremonious conversation. Surprisingly, the usually quiet pop turned story-teller that night and helped saved the day when we ran dry of topics.

It's the time of the year again when it's a must to make my annual pilgrimage to Bangkok. But this time round, it's no longer just for shopping indulgence (Yes, I know this sounds disbelievingly true). I'm glad that it has been an enriching and educational trip, in which we managed to get a glimpse of what's village lifestyle for the people living in Thon Buri - a former capital of Bkk, situated along the Chao Phraya River (shall dwell more into depth later in the post).

If you asked me, one thing I like about Bkk is their hospitality. Despite having some unsuccessful and awkward conversations, we were kept entertained by a jovial taxi-driver on our way to the hotel. For the first time, I felt so illiterate and only be able to manage with simple greetings such as "sawadee-ka", "kob khun ka". My vocabulary bank has never felt this poor, but you can never speak the same for my bkk guru bf. To say that I'm impressed with his command of the Thai language is such an understatement.

To baby love, thank you for all the precious memories to date. More recently, your effort to arrange our anniversary dinner in a gorgeous costly setting.

Till date, I can never apprehend the essence of time as it grabs us by the wrist and pulls us in all directions. While we can't fathom what's coming or lurking behind every path, the key here is to make the best out of these tests. Undeniably, we had our fair share of tumultuous days which I don't dare to imagine further. If there's anything in the past which has taught me, it's to cherish every moment with you. Because it's always better when we are together.

I love you.

Yes, I'm back!! Miss me?

Just when I thought I won't get accustomed to the lifestyle in Bali, I found myself sunshine basking in the tranquility and homespun culture of what the island had to offer. Small it might be, but you will be amazed at its huge prominence as a tourist attraction. From ribbons of beaches to temples sprouting at every corners to pesky street vendors to starry starry nights to dolphin swimming to random stop by a roadside stall for grapes from a woman in the midst of breastfeeding her child. *oops* In short, Bali was amazingly great which I couldn't have asked for anything more. Not too bad for my virgin trip to the country =)

I love our recluse at Lovina where we stayed as they offer a laid back idyll experience. This is definitely the perfect beach destination if you love to have some hedonistic peace. However, if you are craving for something at the end of the spectrum, Kuta's hustle bustle might satisfy your social whirl. An interesting note on Lovina is their au-natural stretches of back volcanic sand beaches.

Don't you just love it when you can finally take time off for relax, recuperate and rejuvenate?

The career embarkment has been quite challenging and can be plagued by a farrago of acute situations which can catch one off guard. But the silver lining is that it helps me to learn from experience and not get burned. Time's a rolling by altogether too quickly. Who would have thought that I have already clocked one year and four months of work? Soon, December will come which means it's time again for resolution-making and evaluation of our live story. Of course, and Christmas wishing too =)

In the meantime, please excuse me while I live in reverie.

Don't miss me~!!!!
