Roy and I went to a Greek Statue Masterpiece Exhibition in Singapore National Museum. The exhibition was fantastic but just that the tickets are pretty costly....

There is a place where public can put on the traditional Greek costume so I took one of them and taking pictures.....
The last photo is an installation art done by a Singapore artist with the theme of Magnet & Steel

Interpretation of the Buddhist Wording


Family: Have to be careful, beware of people who gossips, don’t throw bad words on people. Beware of the security and safety of the house.

Money: Encouraged to stay at the current job or position, sign of money are not here yet.

Love and Marriage: The past/current relationship is not stable yet. The flow is slow.

Six Body Figure (in Buddhist): There is obstacle; it is good to pray to god more frequent, only one will be able to get away with it.

Business: Not at the right time yet, haven’t get the blessing of sky, if continue doing will have less fortune. (Remember I told you a successful person will have the blessing from sky, land and people)

Fate: Obstacles in most of the issues pray to god and do good deeds more frequent to change the luck.

Fame: With hard work and determination, your fame is on the way to you

Illness: Sign of sickness, take care of health

House: The house you are staying is not that good, advice to change location


天時, 地利, 人和, 他人找好了, 也知道要做甚麼, 地點也想好了, 就是缺時機
My best friend(Hui Shan) from JB who studied with me in Shanghai interpret:

You have got the location, people to work together and also know the industry you wanted to pursue in, just that you are lack of the faith of the most suitable time for your business/career to shine!

Kota Tinggi Rainforest Resort (2 to 4 Nov 2007)




Pre-Trip
Dear guess what, todayI am not going into my office. I am now in the Mc Donalds near my housepreparing a proposal for my client.

Later on around 2pm I will be goingover to Johore and get the night bus ticket back to Ipoh on Nov 23.Then Roy and I will hang out around City Square and wait for the Coachto Kota Rainforest Resort around 8pm.
This outing(Summer School) isactually host by the Bahai Community in Malaysia and they invite theSingapore counterpart to take part in this. So, I just hope things willbe doing well for this Summer School.

Shall post of information and photos when I am back.

Post-Trip
Finally I am back in Singapore around 8pm. Went dinner with Roy at the coffee shop below our flat and went home to unpack my stuff and luandry. After everything is done, watched "American Got Talent" shows and go to bed around 1am. Was so tired this morning and really feel like staying back home but have no choice and went to work due to job obligations. Monday Bluezzzz~~~~

As I'd promised, I here post some pictures of my trip in Kota Tinggi. To be frank, the Bahai Summer School is pretty boring. I was expecting a holiday but ended up we have to go through an intensive bahai workshop. There are Bahai from all over the world attending this session: Sg, Msia, Vietnam, Switzerland, USA, Canada, Australia and Iran. My room mate is from Vietnam and Iran. This is the first time I get to know so much of Iran and Middle East culture as I was pretty close with the Iranian! I really want to visit the beautiful country one day!

The first day, I went for the workshop in the morning, then afternoon I really couldn't take it anymore. Roy and I sneak out and went to the water fall. We rent 2 bikes from the resort and cycled there. The water fall was awesome and itz packed with tourist...mainly from Sg and foreigners. I really had a good time there playing with the water and enjoying the freezy and cooling water cum freeze....syok Anyway, I hurt my feet and was fleeding as the stone that I walked in the water was too slippery.

Roy and I spent 3 hours there and we almost forget that we have performance that night. When we r back in the resort, we quickly wash up, take dinner then went to the functional room for rehearsal. Then on 8pm the meetings starts with a talk from a lady from Switzerland. Then the talent show starts. Our performance was the last one. When the emcee announced that it's our show, we started with 1 solo mime piece from Roy and the second contemporary dance duet piece. As this is the first time me and Roy conduct a dance presentation, the chemistery is still moderate and I off balance a few time while doing some ballet postures. Anyway the audience are basically laid people and they don't really trace out the faulty part.

After the show, Roy and I get a huge applause from the audience and most of them approach us and state that it was a good show. We also feel that the combination of our work is fantastic and awesome and Roy and I plan to do something similar for our commercial and theater work down the road..... Anyway, I didn't have a chance to ask ppl to take photo or video of our performance, so I can only share it with u by words.

On the second day, I became pretty "obedient" and attended all the workshop and prayers till the farewell session. I was very touched with the Bahai prayer, the songs and words are so charming! Also I am very touched with the quote of Bahaula "Unity of All Man Kind". Feel like pioneering, teaching and sharing the story with other ppl. Anyway I'd manage to take some photos on the way to the bus before I leave the resort......

Hair-Do

My friend cum client Attica, a club located at Clark Quay requested me for hair-do service. Unfortunately I have to attend a dance show as it was the Singapore Da:ns Festival. I just went over to help her up for a while after the dance performance. As it is, I passed the assignment to my hair-stylist friend- GR.

She is a pretty experienced make-up artist and has been working for several female magazine in a regular basis.

So cham, dunno when I'll have another assignment like this.....waiting.
Anyway the budget is only S$150 for 3 hour services. So little....In create industry, people really undercut everyone!!!



My Hair-Dos done by GR......nice right? Well it looks better under the light and there are glitter above the colors..........

Busking & Singapore Da:ns Festival

Lately been really busy..... On Saturday morning I was still busy working on my client's Yahoo Advertising proposal.Also, Saturday and Sunday has not been productive.


On Saturday, me and Roy went to our spot and set up on 12noon, then wait till 5pm as it was raining heavily. When the time you called, we were waiting in Mc Donalds for the rain to stop. Finally we only manage to busk for 10 minutes then the rain comes then we have to pack up and leave on 6something.


Yesterday, it was raining heavily too, and we manage to work in total 2 hours plus. Consider better than Saturday. Anyway, yesterday was a quite special day as while we were waiting in Mc Donalds for the rain to stop, we met a couple from Switzerland who cycled (in their 2 in 1 huge bicycle)from their country to China, Indo China, Msia till S'pore. Amazing right?!? She gave me her name card and some contact of a website where backpackers can travel around the world and stay at local people's place who are members of the website. Like this time, they are going to settle down in one of their Singaporean girl who previously stayed in their place during her visit in Switzerland!

Check out their website:

www.pedalen.ch

Also, starting from October 11- 21 is the Singapore Da:ns (Dance) Festival.
I was so busy attending those shows and workshop as you know I
am a dance-aholic!

Oct 11 - Latin Fever
I went for a Salsa and Alfa Cuban Rumba workshop hold by a local dance group and it was fantastic!
Been a long time I didn't dance salsa, I can still recall when I was in Shanghai I used to go for salsa party almost every week as I have a huge gang of Spanish and South American friends. Feel like those times are coming back to me....but my friends are not around me anymore....
Anyway, the chef dancer is gorgeous! She was so sexy and pretty and she is amazing with her salsa steps...

Oct 12 - Swing Along
Swing dance workshop. To be frank, I don't really like it as I feel the steps are abit weird.
This dance piece is even older than Jazz which is around the past century la.....

Oct 13 - Arabian Night
I miss the previous 2 and only manage to go for the last dance session. As it was Roy's nephew's birthday, so I have to go over for the party.
Anyway, I was so shock when I reach Esplanade (The Art Center). There are alot of Branglas as it is the Hari Raya Holiday for them. And all of them were sitting so near to the stage and look at all those pretty belly dancer doing the dance piece!
I was left behind as they almost occupied the whole space.
I really love Arabian dance and belly dancing. It is very sensual and sexy and I feel like taking the dance course hold by some local dance school. Honey, should I go for it? But I have a big stomach and belly, it will affect the dance le

Oct 14 - Hip Hop Jam
As me and Roy were talking with those Switzerland Backpackers so we busk till pretty late. Roy join me for the Hip Hop, we only manage to go for the last session. Guess what, both of us sweat like water!
Those poly students are so energetic! I have to admit I am old already!
Anyway, the hip hop dance really make my body warm up and more flexible as their steps and beats are really fast and accurate.

Besides for all these workshops, next week Roy and I are going for 3 dance pieces which is Flamenco dance by COMPANIA MARIA PAGES from Spain (Oct 17), Contemporary dance by BATSHEVA DANCE COMPANY from Israel (Oct 20) and Cultural Dance by ISTANBUL HISTORICAL MUSIC AND MOVEMENT ASSEMBLES from Turkey.

All the ticket costs S$42 each! Damn Expensive! Have to work harder le........

What a careless me.....




Today as I have some spare time after my first meeting, I decided to go to National Arts Council to get my busking endorsement/ license before my second appointment.

After meeting the officer, and speak to her regarding the grants, I was so excited and kept planning in my mind.
I was so careless that I left the building without returning the visitor pass and take my Identity Card back.

After my second appointment in Raffles Place only I recalled I left my IC at the security counter.
So from there I have to go back to NAC & MICA building located at Clark Quay...

Poor thing I was wearing my high heels walking around for the hole day and even went to Orchard road to get my sister's air ticket to back to Melbourne....

Poor thing.......


The Visitor Pass from NAC........ My busking endorsement

Beautiful Apartment Area


This morning met one of my client who deals with property.

We went to Botanica Garden for our meeting over coffee. After that as he is in a rush for his appointment and we haven't finish the meeting, so he ask me along to a high class apartment area in central of Singapore.

While he is meeting his client, I "lepak" around the apartment area.Below are some pictures I took in the......

This is the public toilet next to the gym.



Then I ended up "Fat Hao" in the toilet for more than 10 minutes..... haha


This is the swimming pool, garden and some scenery.



So nice right? I heard per unit of the apartment cost around S$800k to 2.5 million.
Oh My God!
When can I afford to buy this?

乱了。。。

国祥,


收到你这封e-mail我实在很感动,回想起来,时间的确过得太快了,我还记得2003年9月的我还在筹备着SPM(高中考试)后到上海念大学,没想到4/5年这样就过了。

因为家庭因素,当初毕业后的也是这样冲冲忙忙的离开,几乎没有再和同学,老乡告别,仿佛和上海不告而别

不知不觉已经在新加坡工作快1年了!忙碌的上班族生我冲昏了我的脑袋,迷失在为公司领导赚钱的国度里。。。。

上星期刚从香港归来的我又乱了。。。。理想和梦想,有区别吗?对人类而言,哪个比较重要?哪个比较实际?我乱了。。。。

周日下午的满月午宴


周六与在大学就读时期的学弟碰头后,到了图书馆“闭门思过”。
晚上的学会讨论时间使我耽误了乘搭最后一班列车。
对兴致勃勃的艺术爱好者,我们投入在即将举办的系列活动;完全把其他的事情抛到脑后。
稀里糊涂的,在寒风阵阵的晚上,我到了朋友位于市区的家借宿。
隔天,也糊里糊涂的跟随朋友参加其高中死党的午宴。
步入酒楼,坐落在大厅中央的两架婴儿车特别显眼。
笑容满面的夫妻站在一旁迎接来宾。
在猪年迎来龙凤胎,真是一个女+子=好。 好事成双!
初报到的宝宝们一点也不怕生地望着来宾。
他们不停的眨着明亮的眼睛,仿佛对着所有人说:我来了,我是未来的主人翁。
宝宝白皙的肌肤,另人看了实在想把他们搂在怀里,紧紧抱着不放。
看着身材因为怀孕而浮肿的母亲及慈祥的奶奶用着从满爱意的眼神,喂宝宝喝牛奶。
开始在回想当初年幼的自己;手无寸铁,完全没有抵抗敌人能力的我,是否也是如此被伟大的妈妈照顾的。
什么时候我也开始幻想自己的宝宝,我会否也是如此无微不至的照顾他?
但是现在的都市人,连工作的事情都忙不来了。
多于刚踏入社会的我,养宝宝的事情还早的很呢。
“如果以后你结婚,想生男孩还是女孩?”
回想起这个以前三五知己闲聊的时候常会问起的问题。
一尘不变我答案总是“我希望能生2个男生,然后再为他们添个小妹妹。”
"为什么要先2个男生,然后再个女的?而不是先生2个姐姐然后1个弟弟?"
出生于从事家族生意的我总会说“不行!我就是先要2个男生,因为如果大哥不要接手父亲的事业,还有弟弟来撑着呢。”
“妹妹来疼的,我要把她化身为小公主;所有的人都得疼爱她,让着她。”
友人的回答也总是“哇,那个掌上明珠不就被所有的长辈宠坏!”
“嗯,没关系的,被宠坏总比看着重大的负担好!当长女的生活不好受啊!”
确实,身为一家之长的确不好受。
背后付出的辛酸何人知?
在现实的生活中,要考量的事情实在太多了。
家庭的,弟妹的,最后才到自己的。
然后再从自己的理想和梦想中做出选择。
要取舍的事情实在太多了!
但这年代的小孩也是否有我想像中的那么孝顺,懂得放弃一些梦想继承父业。
至于对小孩疼爱的成分该多少?
这毕竟是一个深奥的问题。
爱的多于少,到底有否考量的仪器?
很多时候,我对父母对我的爱与关怀感到质疑。
常常觉得他们总对我唠唠叨叨的,根本都没有说过爱我。
但是在某些紧急的状况时,一直陪伴我们走到最后的始终是我们的双亲。
细节的东西,都是鲁莽的年轻人忽略的。
叛逆期所做出不检点的举止,时时刺痛着双亲对我们关怀的心。
现在回想起来,觉得自己真是愚蠢。
后悔的念头不停旋转在心头。
时时令我希望有个时光倒流的机会;好让我从新面对我的父母。
然而,如果时间真的回转到从前,我真的会领悟到这个道理吗?
这些知识,都是得到社会打滚后,碰到挫折后,才会觉悟的。
现在能做的是什么?
一手把我们抚养成人的父母不能一辈子陪在我们的身旁。
趁着双亲还在人世间,好好给与他们关怀,抽空陪伴他们。
应时时惦记:树欲静而风不止,子欲养而亲不在。。。。。。。

Past, Present n Future Tense


上星期和友人到维多利亚博物馆参观以亚洲文明展为名的展览会。
突然发觉有许多东西自己是从来不曾接触的。
看着从东南亚,南亚到唐朝几千几百年代以前的物品;
隐隐约约的缅甸敲击乐器交响乐,庄严的佛像及各类遗物;
让穿着背心牛仔裤的我迷失了自己,仿佛时间回到了古老的中国。
迷迷糊糊中,看到了一个妇女的背影。
她身穿白色的旗袍,正在镜子面前梳理头发。
精致的梳子,闪烁的发夹和奶黄色的灯光是多么完美的搭配。
盘起了头发,她标志的脸蛋马上浮现在我的眼前。
虽然只能从镜子反射看到她的容颜,但我已经满足了。
妇女站了起来,走到墙角的古筝;弹起了悦耳的曲目。
慢条斯理的,文雅的动作,我完全对她着迷。
就量在树枝上的鸟儿们,都飞到窗口旁。
当我还沉没在迷状态中,妇女突然站了起来,;抬起头来看着我。
突如其来的让我反应不过来,妇女用着奇异的眼神看着我。
双瞳相对,我们都吃惊了。似曾相识的感觉逐渐变得强烈,
我们的五官是多么的相似,我们的举动是多么的相同。
我们不约而同迈向对方,明明就在面前的她,却像相隔十万八千里。。。。
“Wendy,你还好吗?怎么看这幅画都看得那么入神?”
好友上前拍打落伍的我,才让我回过神来。
天啊,刚才那一幕实在是太逼真了!
那,是我吗?还是我的母亲?还是我老祖先?还是前世的我?
不解。。。。。
但文雅,饱读诗书,拥有高尚修养及素质的她怎么会是我?
现在的我,怎可能粘到她三分之一的边呢?
想要达到她的境界,我还得下多少苦功?
我怎么一直在门外徘徊,要道什么时候我才敢面对自己想在这辈子完成的心愿?
午后的时间,我和友人到了咖啡店闲聊。
友人问起了一些以往的事情,我说到过去的事情就让他过去吧。
另我印象最深刻的是他竟然说到 “过去时过去,但有谁没有过去?最重要的是现在和未来。”
这瞬间让我觉悟了一些道理。
确实,摆在眼前的是现在和未来。
往事能让其随时间慢慢漂流,但他们都是我累计很有说服力的经验和教训。
人生经验是要自己去面对,自己克服,自己发掘的。在这方面没有人能教育你的。
回归自信,下订目标,明天还等着我们。
让我们为更美好的未来奋斗吧!

爱埋藏在珊瑚海?

有否想过人为何要谈恋爱。

怕寂寞,找伴侣消磨时间?
怕孤单,找另一半共度一生?
很多时候我们忽略的什么是真正的爱情。。。。。
上回在乘地铁归家的路上,听见身旁的两位小姐聊起她喜欢上一个男人,
开始的时候,该位小姐不断设法引起那男生的注意。过了一段时间,当那男人喜欢上她的时;她却对那男生的感觉已没有之前的强烈。。。。
这让我联想起周董和Lara合唱的珊瑚海。
好久没有听这曲子了。爱深埋珊瑚海?
隐隐约约想起去年在某国度的日子,不知何时这首歌是我当时每晚的摇篮曲。
反复不断的重播,没有厌倦的抱怨。。。。
都是因为听的都已不只是其歌词和歌曲,而是当中的旋律临直接反映的男人。
都怪他把此歌设为手机待音,而让我把这首歌作为他的“替代品”。
都怪他先露出蛛丝马迹,让我注意了他。
都怪他的不告而别,让我由爱成恨。
时间的快转,我来到了另一个国度。
人说保持联系,但对我来说却是痛苦的。
前几天友人提起你,还是会觉得心如刀割。
在一旁的老友也感觉到我的“杀气”, 可见我对某些事情还是蛮留恋的。
“转身离开分手说不出来,你有话说不出来”
的确,我们从来没有正式告别。
“海鸟跟鱼相爱只是一场意外,我们的爱差异一直存在,回不来”
恩,或许贫富,文化和家庭背景的差异已经是一个难以解决的问题。
“当初彼此不够成熟坦白,不应该”
或许,我们也从来没有向任何一方表态吧。。。。 
“毁坏的沙雕如何重来,
有裂痕的爱怎么重盖,
只是一切结束太快。"
"贝壳里隐藏什么期待,
等花儿开,
我们也已经无心再猜。"
在不久的将来,地理距离将更深一层的隔远。
疏远的程度也是铁定的事实。
不断反思,爱情的定义;是一种累赘还是一种享受。
被人疼爱的感觉无可否认是一件快乐的事情,但是有否想到当中所会带来的痛苦和约束。
热情不在,笑容勉强不来;
回到现实吧,不属于我的始终不会是我的;属于我的理所当然会留在我身旁。
不怨天尤人,唯祈求你我拥有更美好的明天。
就让一切埋藏在里珊瑚海吧。。。。。。。

嗨。。。最近的你好吗?


嗨,

最近好吗?之前和你通了电话后,原本想打电话给慧珊,才发觉手机没有保存她上海的电话。突然觉得自己已经真真正正离开了上海,离开了那个城市。

有点感慨,有点失落,时间过得真快,转眼间我已经毕业了。四年的大学生涯犹如梦般渐渐离我越来越远,现在的我已经离开了原本懒洋洋的窝囊来到了现实的工作生活。从归国的那一刻,渐渐发觉脸上的笑容少了,原本叽叽喳喳的我,话变得少了。才工作2个星期,已经开始觉得自己变老了;成天过着朝九晚五,天天加班的生活,回家吃饱饭就上床休息,隔天再重复同样的动作的我麻木了,没有感觉了。

离乡背井投靠在亲戚家的我,像断了翅膀的鸟儿,成天躲在家里。闹得满城风雨的奸杀案惊夺案,使都市盖上黑暗的薄纱。曾经以夜为友的我,也被迫突然改变原本的生活习惯,发觉自越来越有自闭症的倾向。啊,多么怀念以往与友人三五成群在新天地喝咖啡闲聊的日子。。。。。。

友人曾经告诉最重要的是活得开心。然而,现在的我开心吗?我在做自己喜欢的东西吗?疑惑的我是否应该为生活作出一些改变???

心情写照


一小杯温水, 就可以让我满足好一阵子。
一杯热腾腾的咖啡, 就足以让我快乐一整个下午。
厌烦了世间上的虚虚实实,
握在手中的杯子是唯一的真实;
也只因能明确的知道我能一口口的把杯子里的饮料完完全全的喝进肚子里。

Obsession


  • I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.
  • The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside him knowing you can't have him.
  • Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
  • To the world you may be one person, but to one person you
    may be the world.
  • Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.
