I Love you but you din notice.. I've learnt something from the shopping trip yesterday~ "If you choose to NEGLECT, You've just chosen to regret"
Resolutions for 2008

Hmmm.. okok have not been updating hahaa... Taiwan photos are yet to be ready... Anyway the Taiwan trip is suppose to be the Suprise No.2 for the month of April. As for the third suprise is... *drumrolls* Drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.... Chiang~! me getting promoted lor hahaa... the long awaited promotion sia... hahaa... hmmm... actually is the pay rise that is the catch lolx..
Ok.. for the Taiwan trip (12th April'07 to 16th April'07)
12th April'07
Day 1
The whole family got up at 8 plus to make final preparations for the trip before we head out to Singapore Changi Airport for our 1345hrs flight.. All the excitement on this 1st free and easy trip to Taiwan filled the hearts of everyone.. So... we arrived nearly 2hrs before departure to go "window shopping" and picture taking in the airport..
Time flies.. We flew too... hahaa... Time arrival at Taipei CKS International Airport was roughly 1700hrs.. After all the necessary paperwork its already 1730hrs and we took a Coach (Guo Guang Ke Yun) to Taipei Main Station ( Taipei's City Metro a.k.a MRT ). There we took their MRT ( Taiwan known as Jie Yun ) to Ximen Station (Ximen Ding) where we book in to Rainbow Hotel ( Chang Hong Hotel ). This is a famous hotel in Ximen Ding. After which, feeling hungry, we unload all the luggages and headed down to search for food... All hungry and cold, we walked for 30mins all directions.. Then.. 45 mins past.. God~... No signs of any Vege stalls around... Desperate.. Disappointed too.. So Big of a place and yet so little of vege stalls.. Cos in our minds Taiwan is suppose to be quite "advance" in vegetarianism and we expected vege stalls to be easy to find.. Haiz.. In the end we turn into a 7-11 convenient shop to get our dinner. (Cup Noodles!!!) Suprisingly.. 7-11 are abundant in Taipei... every other street.. every other corner you'll see one.. Tired and Hungry we adjorn to our hotel to rest. Just as when we reached the lobby i told my family to carry on to shower and rest while i make a 2nd attempt to search for food.. That is already 2145hrs.. I venture further in all directions to scout for any available vege stalls and/or Temple etc etc... finally!! found a temple.. walked in and ask... Argh!! their response was they dunno of any vege stalls around.. OMG... Hopes drenched... proceed to return to hotel.. 2215hrs.. almost reaching hotel... Saw a signboard "Su Su Mian" Woo Hoo~! Food..!!! Lucky... the boss say closing at 2230hrs... bought 2 big bowls of noodle soup back hotel to eat.... End of day 1
13th April'07
Day 2
Woke up 8 plus... found everyone still snoozing away.. concuss again.. 0920hrs my parents are awake... missed hotel breakfast.. cos last timing 0900hrs.. Sis still sleeping... not feeling well... half the day wasted...
1st destination Long Shan Temple (Long Shan Shi) approx. 1130hrsThere we went to visit the temple and took some photos.. its very grand.. it has 1 main hall and a smaller hall both halls offering alot of goddess and buddhas.. So happen that there's a Yue Lao Shen Jun altar.. This houses the famous Yue Lao (Marriage God) so.. of cos i pray there for my 2nd half to appear soon lor hahaa... also taken a red string from the Yue Lao offering table.. Heard its effective in aiding singles find their better half...
Following which.. is Food again hahaa cos its already 1300hrs ++ Lunch... Here at Long Shan Shi Station Vege stalls is alot.. almost the whole street is selling.. so we visited each stalls buying something to share... there's packet rice and dumplings and etc etc etc... *Slurp*... Nice..
2nd destination Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall ( Zhong Zheng Ji Nian Tang )
We once again boarded the Jie Yun and arrived at C.K.S. Memorial Hall Station.. Here we visited the Memorial Hall built for the famous Jiang Jie Shi.. This is one of the must go in our itinery as Jiang was an Atocratic in those days and now in a democratic Taiwan society, they are going to demolish the place.. There we witness the Change of guard parade.. very precise and smart drill.. it makes people wonder how they manage to do it as there isn't any command given execpt in the mid of the drill 2 commands were given "Salute" and "At Ease".. Spectacular 10mins of drills...
3rd destination Dan Shui (Fisherman's Wharf) approx. 1600hrs
Here is the Best Sunset View you can have in Taiwan.. Dan Shui Yu Ren Ma Tou.. Its romantic view of the sea is simply breathtaking.. but dun take too much breath haaa cos just below the Famous Lovers' Bridge(Qing Ren Qiao) is their fishing wholesale area... Fresh caught fishes are traded there... To mark our visit there.. Lots of pictures are taken... especially the seaview...
4th destination Shih Lin Night Market (Shi Lin Ye Shi)
Back to the Jie Yun we proceeded on to Jian Tan Station there we alight and headed to the well known Shih Lin Night Market... True enough as what you see on TV esp Taiwan Variety Programmes.. the Shih Lin Night Market is filled with eateries and stalls selling all kinds of stuffs... There we shopped for lots of stuffs.. clothes.. souvenirs.. local delights(e.g. Muah Chee etc etc ) 3-4 hrs of non stop shopping.. That is roughly a good estimate how big the place is... but of cos.. time taken to squeeze thru the crowd is also inclusive hahaa...
Headed back to hotel to rest at around 2230hrs... Exhausted...
To Be Continued . . . . . . . . Hahahaa stay tuned...

18th Feb'07
Today is Lunar New Year Day 1... The very beginning of Year of the Golden Pig~ Golden Pig is actually a combination of the 5 elements of the Chinese Feng Shui studies... for example i was born in the year of the Water Dog...
Hmmm... yes... I haven't been blogging for quite awhile le... Have been lazy... and sometimes too busy... so... ya... maybe one day i'll just close this space...
Life
Life has been so-so... Hmm... well... i told this analogy of life once to this long lost primary school friend of mine... Lan Lih... Life is like a bus Journey... You are the bus driver... at the different stages of life... people get on... people get off... so.. ya... the permanent residents on board will be your family members... the rest of the passengers are term "variables" you never know when they getting on or off... Taking this chance i would like to thank the following passengers in random order(no particular order)
Family >>> All my dearest cousins and relatives
Friends>>> Zhi Han, Pei Yi, Zhi Guang & family, Adeline, Lan Lih, Yim, Jeslyn
Workplace>>> Kai Siang, Valery, Kelvin Tan, Kelvin Ong, MJ Foo, Xiao Foo, Ah Gui, PG Choy, KLYap
Thats about all... And for those whom i have not mention... its because your image is still vivdly in my mind... do something about it hahaa... No lah kidding... Just wanna thank the aboved mentioned people as they have in one way or another gave me insirations and/or teachings that have aid me in becoming who i am now... Thank you...
Work
Work is still managable... will be taking this year as a reference year to kick start my qualification as a License Aircraft Engineer... This will also serve as my Y-junction for my future plans... so... its either make or break... How big is the difference? That will be a rough gauge of living in a Condo(or better apartments) against living in HDB in the future.... or rather in the long run... Whether i can retire at 55 years old... hahaha :-p
Love
Lovelife is not good... Think will expand my social circle... This will most probably aid in cupid's work... hahaa... Quantity then Quality... So... will still fight for it till 35... then i'll stop... cos by then i would most probably be an old man... so... will struggle and strive hard for another 20 years and retire in luxury... if by then got family then there will be an extension to my retirement... so target is still 35 hahaa... Ooops...
Criteria is as follows: Must be a female!!!(both physically and metally most importantly original... no pirated version allowed) Preferably pleasant looking
Income: No preference
Character: must be friendly, able to mix around
Most importantly.... Status: Must be Single( Attached, Married or Divorce need not apply)
Lolx... Not very high on expectations leh...
Hmm... Things i expect in the upcoming few months... Work, WORK and MORE WORK!!! so i must take care of my health... will be saving up for my ideal phone... hope to purchase it next month or so... cos my current phone is not going to make it soon... sometimes no sound some times battery flat easily... Will be planning my Annual Leave soon... Hmm.. thats about all...
To all passengers onboard... Take care and Stay happy

27th Dec'06
Dear all,
Wondering whats happening??? Well... Ya its long time since the last blog entry... Hmm.... Hibernation i suppose.... just like what's happening to me... Feeling sleepy all the time recently... so long there's "free time slots" i'll just doze off easily... Hmmm... Today.... early in the morning.... was greeted by Smoke when i woke up... not mist, not haze, not fog.... but smoke... Thick smoke!!! Somewhere in the neighbourhood caught fire i guess... but dunno where... The smoke lasted for about 30mins then slowly subsides....
Hmm... Work wise.... I've been quite confused bah.... Sometimes... people smile and appear to help you... but behind they just put not one, not two sometimes quite a number of "knives and/or arrows" on your back... Sometimes... people make the effort to embarass you in front of a higher rank so that they look good on themselves...
I'm getting lesser and lesser understanding about people around... Its getting more and more difficult to realise or so to speak differentiate between friends or foes... So... everyday seems to be a chore to go to workplace... Cos... you gotta put on a smiley face mask... careful not to offend anyone... People are difficult to pleased.... and definitely more difficult to handle if something goes wrong... Sometimes speaking the right thing ain't really the right thing... and haiz...
Relationship wise... Nothing has improve or so to speak.... I'm still single... *The End*
Health... not really ok lah... refer to 1st para....
What i foresee i will do next year.... Hmmm.... its been not a very good year for me i think... so most probably next year ain't going to be better... I think i'll take up a course or may be more courses... Diving could be one of it... Jap classes... and if time allows... others bah... still haven't think about the others yet.... Erm... should still be hoping for the same thing every year someone special to spend the 14th feb together... which i not pinning on too much hopes... Hope 2007 is going to be a very peaceful year...

Suprisingly i am not even panting after the race... but rather buddy seems to be injured... he says its a relapse of his previous knee injury... so sad... think he didn't quite enjoy the run... Last but not least... I'm now having a headache... think most prob due to over temp... hahaa... okies go rest liao...
