As it begin..
Currently addicted in playing: Virtual Villagers - The Secret City
Where shall I begin? My dinner for this week is filled with all Japanese food. And of course I had a fun time with all my friends and well fed by them.
I keep telling myself that I shall write an entry once I'm back home. But I'm just plain lazy and sleep is what I want when I got home. =P
Maybe I shall begin by posting photos that I and with the year 3 people on last Thursday? Photos grabbed from Hui San's blog. =)
I'm pretty sure that Monday is somehow an unforgettable day for me. Had a half day leave that day. On the way to meet Shuyi for dinner. Er, I was dragged? Asked? By an old lady to assist her to translate what she said, to the policeman. The story is rather complicated..
Anyway, went with Shuyi to Pasta De Waraku at Marina Square. Not bad, the food there is affordable and nice. The atmospheres is not bad idea. It's great for people who want to have Japanese food and pasta together at the same time. The dessert there is not bad either. =)
We talked about
Deckleswood. I'm glad that it reopen after 4 years. Found back many old friends there. =)
FYI: Deckleswood is about Harry Potter Roleplay. Where you attend classes, just like what the books describe. But mostly, it will be role playing around.
Wednesday =) I'm sure I had a great laugh that day. Dinner with Julia and Dumb dumb is always fun. Went to our favorite place Benox Box for dinner. Dumbx2 thought it's pastamania x) and he got lost?
Went Swensens for dessert. We sang birthday song for Yu Qin. He looked quite surprise. =D when the management team actually stand behind him and started to sing birthday song. =D
Sometimes, photos just over ride everything that I'm going to write. =)
Thursday, meet up with Ray and Wai Teck for a dinner at I forgot the restaurant name. but it's a Japanese restaurant located at city link mall. It's been really indeed long since I last saw them. Maybe erm, 2 months? Well, I'm well fed by them. Thanks for the shirt, the meal and the mini cake. It's survive you know. =)
Friday, is always the busiest day I had in office. I'm not sure why. But it is. Met up with Albert to return his book. And I'm I forgot to ask him to bring another book of his collection to lend me. We had dinner at Aijisen. A Japanese restaurant again.
Anyway, the book that he lend me was The rule of life. I like a section of the book where it say:
Shop for quality, not price.
1. Accept only the very best - second best is not for you.
2. If you can afford it don’t buy it or wait and save until you can.
3. If you have to have it, buy the very best you can afford.
And lastly, Rachel sent me another meaning e-mail. =)
Garbage Truck One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly.
So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!' This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'
He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.
The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so..... 'Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't.' Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!
Though we may not meet at all time, but deep down in your mind, soul and spirit you will not be forgotten. You may be far, but you seem so close to me.

Simplicity is life. Y
