A good friend who came a visiting, told me that I was really suay (unlucky) and that I have a kiam chye mia (loser's life). Do I?
I have been working very hard on my new projects these few months. It hit a snag with the local government officials of a certain country. I was to dine and fill their pockets - again.
Subsequently, I decided to have a short
Good things happened though. I gained some great friendship - real life and virtual. Enjoyed some yummy delicacies. Met up with friends and relatives whom I haven't seen for some time. My bad, I was too busy. Had a long and wonderful rest.... and a small fortune. hehehe.....
Throughout my ordeal of the past two weeks, I remained optimistic and high-spirited. I'm broken in body, not in spirit. Well, I think I'm a good example of 'when life hands you lemons, you make lemonade.' hehehe....

ReplyDeleteWait a minute now, there is nothing bad with Lemonade. Lemons are good for your body. A lemon a day, keep the doctor away! Have a fine SINGAPORE day!

Get well soon,, hope you will be rejuvenated and well rested.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you need some time just for you. Take a few hours or a few minutes to go deep inside of your self and be still feel the quiet and let all thoughts pass in and out and do nothing but observe. Stay inside yourself and feel what your body is saying. When you are done get up stand in front of mirror and smile at the person there wink and tell yourself how good you are.
ReplyDeleteyenjai,
ReplyDeleteThanks. ^-^
Cocka,
ReplyDeletechen got the photo in her PDA meh? She din show me wor. OMG! That's really terrible. The joy of life. tsk tsk tsk.....

Hi Mike!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
Ohhhh.... you were in Singapore!? Glad you had fun and were cured of whatever 'sickness' you had then. :) The food in Chinatown was great huh, we have better food all over the island!
Singapore was a great experience for me. I was only there 2 weeks but it was more than I could handle. I need a year or two :). How long have you lived there?
ReplyDeleteMike,
ReplyDeleteI was born here. hehe....
Singapore is a wonderful place to live. It might be too small for your liking but it's safe and has a great international airport.
Hope to see you back in Singapore again. ^-^
Oh dear ... what's up?!
ReplyDeleteThis must be a conspiracy ... as though some "higher power" wants you to take a rest and keep quiet.
Hmmm ...
You take care and no, you are not a loser :) If you are one, what makes me? A super loser who read a loser's site?!
Pffftttt ....
Maybe God is telling you... it's time for a BREAK!
