De one with After Awhile

Rain is over

Can't help but ponder, what the big problem with Fann Wong getting H1N1? I mean months ago, there were millions of people who contracted that. Haha. Cheap thrills of celebrity-hoohaa.

Just watched a guy on Channel 8, proposing to his girlfriend. The set up at the beach was good; the safety ring buoy idea was great; the lilies were alluring; the content of the message in a capsule was heart-moving.. but "maybe sometimes love just ain't enough".. so sad...

Omg, massacre of about 46 humans at the southern island of Mindanao, believed to be the work powerful Ampatuan family made it imperative for a state of emergency. Man... militant powers. Weapons of destruction. Corruption sucks.

Ahhh.. ain't it amazing what watching the news can do? The H1N1 vaccine are causing dire side effects.. these include neusea, body aches and swelling. See lar... rush for it for what... I recalled my uncle and aunt encouraging us to have ourselves vaccinated during the time it was out. I wonder if the vaccine is a cure / curse?

Aiyo.. I am watching this "Tuesday Report" which features this guy, Wai Choy. Therein mentions a story about his grandmother and him. There was particularly this part of the story which mentioned about how much the granny loves him, that she didn't wish him to leave for overseas studies. She cut his beloved (fashion) jeans, tricked him into submitting the acceptance letter from an Art's college which the ambitious grandson applied for, torn the letter to shreds so that he'd never leave. To the young, perhaps we'd be very pissed why this grandma like that, so conservative and obstructing dreams and horizons to bright futures. To our parents, they'd understand why the old lady did so.. not implying I'm old but I couldn't agree more... the granny's love for the grandson was so great, she didn't want her loved one to leave her. Perhaps the grandson was all she had. Perhaps. But that genuine love, it is beyond any words to describe.

Everybody must be wondering where have I disappeared to. Well, I've been busy with work till late at night so I could finish what would take two working days to complete. Perhaps my efforts to keep myself busy so I wouldn't feel bored. Perhaps these are acts out of guilt for taking so much leave and medical leave during the year. Regardless, I am contented, living life to the fullest.

A little time away, a bit of b*tching, abit of sweetness-recap, a bit of empathy, a bit of heart-warming, abit of explaining. Bits and pieces after awhile. I suppose these reads superior than long-windeded stories.
