After so many warnings, both from signs and other people, there are some who still go on ahead and attempt to make the crossing over that bridge.
And after having the bridge collapse beneath their very feet, and having to climb back on your feet, all bruised and broken, with everyone around to lend a helping hand. They go right back up and try to cross again.

Hard to understand people. Sometimes I think it’s really better to manage items. Books, papers, notes, files. Humans are too unpredictable.. Just TOO DAMN unpredictable!
Every single day is all about gaining knowledge and new revelations
Today, I learnt that sometimes, the smallest actions, the most unworthy of mentioning of gestures, are the ones that most people treasure and appreciate the most. Yet more often than not, people tend dismiss it the most casually amongst of all actions.
If you have been neglecting your loved ones, its time to show them that you care. Take an additional minute or two to go that extra mile to show them that additional bit of care or thoughtfulness. To you it might have been just that, but to them, it was most probably the one action that made their day
So I finally managed to complete the whole Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer. I had Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse, first 3 books in the series for like forever, and had almost forget that it wasn’t completed. Saw the last book Breaking Dawn a couple of weeks back but seriously didn’t have the spare cash to splurge on it! =( Luckily for me, taking over duty from Hafashah on Sunday proved to be rewarding as he happened to have the book!! Ironically, he only had the 4th book and not the rest =/ And so that was the story about how I managed to read Breaking Dawn withouth spending a cent.
Sunday. I read Breaking Dawn TWO times. Yes two freaking times. It was simply too wonderful to read and remember the first time. I simply had reconnect with the story and it so happened I brought the first 3 books along to kill time! So it was Breaking Dawn for the first time, and then the Twilight series all over again. Gosh, I practically spent the whole 12 hours there reading.

What draws me so.. I find the relationship that Bella and Edward share to be so deep.. so unique… yet ever so loving to be really.. touching. The books portray their relationship so deeply and so well that it managed to get me all emotional. Will there ever be such deep feelings that exist for me..?
So here I am, reading and re-reading the books again(yes AGAIN). I just completed Twilight this afternoon and was absorbed by Eclipse all the way till late at night yesterday. xD Never been any series which inspired me so and to be honest, I’ve read a fair share..
Great. I just got served a $40 SGD penalty for going over the $500 limit on the Citibank Clear. That’s pretty f**ked up considering I had no warning whatsoever. Don’t credit cards become unuseable once you gone over the limit?
How come mine’s allowed the transaction to follow through and subsequently fined me $40 for it along with a cute SMS to inform me about the limit. Blah~

(Update)
I called the customer hotline to bitch about it and they actually waived it without much of a fuss. =O
Went to meet Donald and the guys for a Pre-Wallaby Farewell gathering today, but its like quite a farce as the attendance was such that Donald and Ryan was the only one going to Wallaby. LOL. There was Me, Marcsen, Jason, Kenneth, Jayne, Hazhari, Donald and Ryan. Met at 2pm at Plaza Singapura and *scream* only Jayne was there. Everyone else arrived between 3-5pm -.-”
For whatever reason, we walked to Heeren for dinner instead of having it at PS as there was nothing appealing to eat. There was a big arguement whether to eat at Pasta De Waraku.. or Waraku Casual Dining -.-”. Ended up eating at Pasta cos it was a 5v3 decision D: Ordered a pizza set which comprised of one set of pasta, one mini salami pizza, 1 bowl of corn soup and 1 salad. The salad was crap, the soup was pretty good but the serving was like 10 mouthfuls? The pizza was good but kinda small lol. Ordered Carbonara for pasta.. It tasted kinda weird since they included a single egg for reasons unknown so creamy+egg = gag. There was the taste of the egg in my mouth the entire time and I can’t really taste the pasta at all =(
$19 gone like that~

After dinner-activity, we made a very expensive decision to have dessert at NYDC. Wahahaha~ Had a Grandma Goes Nuts dessert which was basically vanilla ice-cream on a oreo base with LOADS AND LOADS of nuts in the ice-cream. Heavenly~ But heavenly comes at a cost.. of $12 after GST and Service Charge -_-”\
Decided to go to this bar called Iced Cool Beer for chill-ax after dessert. Recommendation of Jason’s friend. Ended up the place only allowed guys above 25 while girls had no age limit. Is that totally sexism or what? Chui. So went to another place for drinks. Ordered a Tiger Beer Shuttle which is basically a Beer dispenser machine thingy. LOLs. Played some funny games like 007, and Figures of 3,7(this one is killer, kanna like siao) to assist in finishing the shuttle. Jason’s friend keep kanna and she drank like 1/3 of the shuttle because of it. Must be thirsty. :X
Siao liao~ Drink so much how to drive back. Don’t care ah. Pray no TP. Hee~
Met up with Jason and the guys yesterday at Orchard just for a catching up session. Jason’s finally free after slogging away for some event related to F1 in the Changi Airport Transit area. Seems like life been rather good to Jason as he seems to have expanded sideways in the few weeks since last saw him.
Anyways those nut-hats decided to go to Party World to sing KTV. From 8pm till 1am. Sing until the voice totally chui. As usual the whole series of Jay Chou songs kept playing over and over, some other chinese songs, some random english oldies for Hazhari(LOL!), some unker songs for Jason(LOL again). Most of the songs I don’t know the lyrics or tune well enough to sing ah. So most of the time randomly singing(shouting) into the mic. Wahaha~ But it was quite fun la.
Den 1am bill came. Chui~ $30 to shout into the mic. Wahaha! Anyways a group pic for memory sake!
S01 class outing at Vivo City today!! The turn out was good, there was Xz, Colin, Wei sheng, Peggy, Justine, Lymon, Esther, Wan Yi, Fanny, Me, Yong Tao, Hui Yu, Shaun, Amanda and Olivia. Olivia~! The person who went MIA to some Donkey Kong island! The plan was to have dinner at some cafe called Serenity but we abandoned the plan because the food there looked expensive and the varieties were rather limited. Colin is sooo bad, make reservation le still pangseh the place.
Ended up at another place called The Mussel Guys which is completely Fish & Co.. right down to the water glasses -.-” The food actually also very expensive.. and the serving sides also actually quite small.. Lolz.. Aiya never mind la, the outing’s about catching up with old friends.. But think next time stick with Fish & Co better.
After loads of chatting and catching up over dinner(not to mention camwhoring), went up to the Sky Park and sat down and had a “bully-Olivia” session. Wonder whats the fun in playing with a smelly slipper though, but we still managed to have fun xD More camwhoring and having fun~ Its been a while since I had fun like that le..
Went out with Edwin to City Hall this afternoon. Decided that enough was enough, its time to get down to Jaben and exchange that piece of earpiece crap thats been lying about collecting dust. Uncle Wilson is extremely friendly!! When he saw my sad example of an Xroads X3i, he immediately informed me that the X3is were no longer being manufactured and have been replaced with the Bijous and that he would replace my X3s with the Bijous. There’s really nothing else that I can comment about such quality of after-sales service, totally beyond expectations. Sometimes its not the prices that really matter, its the quality of sales and after-sales services that keep the customers coming back! *Thumbs up!*

While we were in Suntec City, Edwin got all nostalgic about how he managed to date this girl(lets call her YH) for a movie at Suntec(The Dark Knight) and simply did not know how to follow up with her after the fateful date. Subsequently moved on to the topic about how relationships between 2 dating individuals can differ according to their age. In my opinion, I really feel that a relationship between teenagers and those after 20 years of age really changes. For a teenage relationship, there’s a different form of fun factor in it whereby even doing silly things like studying at fast food chains or looking at aeroplanes together can be fun and romantic at the same time. It seems much more carefree and happy isn’t it?
What about a M20 relationship? Well. Views change, goals change. Money, sex, marriage. Thats where the relationship boils down to. Right? My views la.. Omg, I feel very narrow-minded now. I haven dated of course, so its subject to change la..

Met with Xz, Lymon, Colin for some late night pool at Hougang Plaza, side agenda to pick up a motherboard from some guy but he PS-ed as usual. Pah~ Learnt that the couple go back tgt again. Glad for them la~ Finally UN talks have resolved and there’s equilibrium again. But thats no excuse for lousy pool~ =X Headed over to Macs for a bite and the star-guy shared the whole story with us. Okok la, not everything la or it will be rated M for Mature, just the rough picture lo~ Enough for us to interpret and assume. ^^
Suddenly feel emo~ Why ah?

Oh ya. 700B plan thrown out of the window. Electrical bill up 21%. More good years ahead liao… Finally understand why they give out dividends at this timing le..
So it was Breaking Dawn for the first time, and then the Twilight series all over again. Gosh, I practically spent the whole 12 hours there reading.
