Who are you ?

I get to know people, and then I learn to trust them.

I can say with much confidence that they are such a person. Rumors are easily shunned off by me.

But sometimes, I just don't know.

I perceive you to be a civic-conscious person, and then one day I see rubbish being thrown out of the car.

I thought that I've seen everything about you, and then suddenly you showed me something different. Something that shocked me. Something that made me feel insecure.

You made me question the motives behind your every move, and it is really scary.

Someti
mes it's not that I'm angry about something you did. I'm just disappointed about things that you did not do. I'd go the extra mile for you, but it's never the same for you.

Simple words are hard to say, such as the word 'sorry'
. I'm sad that you no longer bother to apologize. Indeed, it was a small matter, but I took it quite personally.

I'm losing confidence on myself and the people around me. Sometimes I'd wonder, the kind of concern I have for you, is it at all worth-while ? There's a saying that we should not give hoping to receive. But giving and not receiving at all makes me feel like I'm tepuk-ing sebelah tangan.

Who are you ?

High time for Self-evaluation

Despite the apparent hatred for that Golfer, I must admit that she has pointed very true details about myself.

What was my resolution for the year 2007 ?

http://hr.ucsb.edu/icons/work_life.jpg

I had not listed any clear goals or objectives, but I guess most would have unconsciously drawn up in their minds weaknesses they wish to improve, things they should do and so forth.

For me, I can quite say that I've not exactly achieved any one of it.

To list down things that are haunting me, I can start with ...

1. How has my weekends been ? A typical routine if you ask me.
12 - 2 pm: Time to wakeup.
2 - 4 pm: Have brunch, watch tv
4 - 6 pm: Another round of sleep

6 pm - 2 am: Dinner, watch tv

Looking back, I seriously don't know what I've been doing. So much time wasted.

2. How many hours are spent studying in a week ?
Er ... None ? Except during exam weeks.

3. How much money saved ?
None, bank account depreciating every second. It's like I've never had money earn during the month to be still in my account after a month.

4. Read the newspaper, get to know world issues and sorts.
What ? You mean there is actually something called the Star ?

5. To be carefree, have less sulking moments and improve temper.
Gee mum, how many times have I argued with you ?

6. To respect others, to be NICE.
Does swearing in the car counts ?

Time to get my act together.

Welcome Ashley Lim !


My mail box was overloaded today.

It all started with an email from Godpa ... He welcomed a new member into our family ...

At first I thought, is it Jerry's got a kid already or is it that some far-off, unknown relative of mine has given birth to a baby ...

Then another crazy thought came into my mind. Could it be Godma & Godpa's ?

But I don't remember seeing her pregnant ? (Takkan still so 'strong')

Finally, the truth is revealed (after interpreting lots and lots of responds in the emails) My Godpa & Godma (Dad's bro & wife) have adopted a new member into our family.

Let us welcome Ashley Lim !

Dreams

http://www.eso-garden.com/

I had a dream. A dream so vivid I could remember fragments of it. These dreams are often those that leave you tired despite having had hours of sleep.

I awoken with a sense of vulnerability.

Have you ever had a dream where you were walking down the streets, and then suddenly you realize that you are naked ? That's the feeling.

Not too much on the part of embarrassment, but on the sense of being vulnerable.

Don't you think that dreams are such a wonder ? It's so mysterious and intriguing.

I often wonder whether these dreams would mean anything. Perhaps an insight into the future. But very unlikely though, as dreams does not make much sense.

However, I'm sure many of you have experienced Deja vu. Sometimes you are just talking to someone or just doing something in particular and then you feel like it has happened before. This feeling is often accompanied by the sense of strangeness.

Some relates Deja vu to clairvoyance, past lives, a dream once had or a memory forgotten, which is entirely mysterious and fascinating.

Creepy right ? Though it may be romantic at times.


Some people say that dreams occur as a result of things that have been on your mind. Well, not necessarily I guess. The vivid dream I had yesterday contains no character of which I have been thinking in the day.

I've heard theories where they believe that dreams are accounts of what the soul experiences when it leaves the body when we sleep. As a result, I've heard adults prohibiting their kids from drawing on faces when the individual is fast asleep.

It is said that the soul having left the body after the individual falls asleep, will be unable to recognize the body when it returns later. Thus, that particular individual will continue to sleep forever ...

Of course, there are scientific explanations to dreams which are all about the brain, chemical reactions and neurological stuffs. But that certainly kills the unusual feeling dreams exude right ?

Then again, how true can the scientific explanation be ? After all, it is developed by homo sapiens which are also developers of superstitious beliefs.

Could it be that our world today is actually a dream of another being ?

To be remembered


My day started great yesterday, though it did resulted in a disrupted beauty sleep.

I received a sms from a colleague back when I was working in Teledirect. That was way back in May 2006. She asked me how was everything going on.

A simple greeting, yet it certainly made my day.


Not long after that I received another sms. This time it was from a colleague in Ernst & Young, my favourite senior.

'Yo ... How's it going ? How was ur assignment ? Kekeke ... I'm doing a long list of cp204s now n I remembered u ! =p Good help is hard 2 find.'

That meant so much to me.

Then I remembered an email I received a couple of weeks ago. It went like this ...

A special farewell note just for you ....

'
Dear all I will be leaving Malaysia tomorrow evening to start my life over in Darwin, Australia. So I thought I'd like to write a separate farewell note to all of you to do justice to my 3 years with the firm.

.........

Angela, you deserve a special mention for your spunky personality - the office was much more quieter after you left. Good luck in your studies and hope that you will consider taking up tax work after your graduation. '

It feels so great to be remembered.

Sometimes I'd wonder, if the world ends for me tomorrow, how many would miss my presence ? Sad to say, all that I could think of are my parents and sister.

How about my other relatives ? Indeed they are my family. But we've been living apart, and only sees one another during the festive seasons, how much would they have known about me to even miss me ?

An irony indeed.

What would you have to say about me when I'm gone ? How long will it take till I'm forgotten ?

Apologies for the sudden emo session.

Let the Music Heal Your Soul

I like to listen to the music. Big deal, who doesn't ? But certain music communicates with me in ways I could never describe. It takes me into these lines of thoughts, making me feel special, giving me a sense of serenity.

It is kinda childish, but whenever I discover that someone likes the kind of music I love, I can't help but relate myself to that person. It gives me a whole new impression of him, and I would seek to get to know this person more.

Just thought I'd share this nice feeling in me.

Talking about music, Black-eyed Peas is coming to Malaysia on 26/10/2007 !


Tickets are selling at : RM 550, RM 420, RM 320, RM 220 and RM 120.

Pretty pricey eh ?

Anyone interested ? *cough*the BC*cough

New Beginning



Finally, I've managed to move myself into Blogspot. No, I still don't know what's CSS & HTML. Just superbly lazy lah.

Wanted to move to Wordpress, but it ain't too user-friendly. Anyway, here I am.

For readers whom have been following my blog 'Alegna In Thoughts', I'll see you here from now on ....

Till then ... Cheerz !
