The girl I met accidentally.

Something happened on a fateful day.

Was out with Daryl a couple of weeks back at Sim Lim Sq. Daryl received a call from his friend saying that he wanted to meet up with him for a meal or something like that. Somehow or rather, it became a trip to IKEA and Giant.

Apparently, his friend didn't tell us that he was bringing a female friend along, and I'm not sure whether Daryl told him that he had a extra friend tagging along. His friend did look surprised on seeing a extra guy though. At first, I thought that somehow Daryl and me had become accompanying light bulbs for a trip, so I didn't really bother with his female friend.

Yet somewhat, as I observed, I realized that they weren't a couple, but more of colleagues. I had another thought as well, whether was Daryl's friend trying to introduce her to Daryl. But since I felt Daryl was rather quiet with her, so I spoke and kinda clicked rather alright.

At the end of the day, I had the feeling whether or not it would be alright contacting her again, since I didn't actually have a direct link with her in any sense, or that she might have just been rather accommodating on that particular long day. I did feel weird smsing someone in a uncertain manner.

We started going out a few times, loved the time spent, though I was really shagged out, I relished every moment spent with her that I felt really energetic about life.

But after all that, Thanks to the accidental meeting, I have a really caring, sweet and lovable girl by my side.

Thank you. And I love you dear.


Doesn't she look hot in this pic? :D

Max Brenner uncovered!

If I was superman is such a nice show. Really appreciate 'someone' going with me to watch the show. ;P I really liked the show, since it showed how much humans have changed and how selfish others have become over the years. Its like a 3rd look into reality through the opposite humane eyes of another similar being.

Jeon Jin Hyun 's acting still rocks, and she's still my favourite Korean actress. But didn't like her smoking in the show, really not like her.

But yesterday was really a fruitful day spent. I got to know someone better. I got to know her view from the back, so that I can recognize her better. Got to know her likes and dislikes.

And yesh, my mouth hurts from all that smiling. Yet again. I guess that when she smiles, somehow a warmth is brought with it, though the weather was cold yesterday, didn't really feel so cold though.



Splendid Weekend

Essential manners for men.

Well, just started reading on this book. It was after the talk at St Regis that made me wanna brush up my etiquette skills a tat higher. I really felt intimidated at the awe of the place. So I had to brush up on this skill more.

So I bought the 2 following books:
Essential Manners for Men by Peter Post.
The Art of Civilized Conversation by Margaret Shepherd.

I decided that I should also invest in a monthly 'Book Fund'. How much I should invest in this, I do not know. Maybe a hundred? or two?

So what will the fund cover?
  • Tech Magazines (PC, HWM, MH, PW)
  • Self-Development Books
  • Misc Stationery
  • Sci-Fiction Books
Well, Lets' put it at $150 for this month and try it out. =P

Things so far....along the road

Down the road...things change.

Lots of my friends are already happily employed with their company of choice. Those who are back from overseas studies find themselves gainfuly employed within a quarter if things are looking up in the economy.

As for me, well; i'm introducing changes in my lifestyle. In the past, it used to be aikido...aikido...aikido. Neverending. Else I would be thinking what kinda partner suits me the most. Pretty boring shit when I think back on the times.

Now, I think I preferring to act like a geek at home sometimes. Gazing through my 22-inch window @ home to the Internet, yeah its my new monitor...and playing with my PS2 on the screen. Ya know, I've a lot of games I have not touched nor completed since 2006 after I ORDed and wef from 2007, headed to Melbourne for further studies.

I sometimes find that spending my time cooped up at home seemingly makes me feel like a Agoraphobic person. But actually, I wanna go out, I wanna complete the To-do list I have in my head. I wanna sleep. Once i get into my room, there's a lot of stuff that starts swarming me.
  • Should I sleep the day away?
  • Should I read comics and spend the day away like a Geek in Cyberspace..?
  • Should I go to the security forums/newsletters and start improving my GK..?
  • Should I organize something and get hyped up with meeting new people..?
  • Should I start/continue the book thats lying on my desk..?
Actually, everday when Im home - I get the 2nd option done most of the time. Then I start to feel and regret not completing the 3rd and last option when I look at the increasing amount of books I bought or told myself to read...then its evening, and I start wondering what would have happened if I just went out and met someone randomly? [option 4] I know, I know. Dangerous meeting some stranger or some weird chick. I've got my fair share, and what I can say is that danger is always omnipresent. I kinda gave up trying to BE CAREFUL. The word I have now is MITIGATE. Then night comes, my eyes start getting really heavy. Oh fark. Why didn't I take a good sleep on the comfy bed?

Argh. The options in life that one has to think off. Dammit. I guess while others are addicted to immoral products, I'm addicting myself to the comic book. I gotta pull myself outta the house. And here's the thing about women. Its not that desperate, but pls...I do find that the sudden shortage of female friends is abit....Disturbing. So who are the women in existence in my life right now? Really few to name, not even worth doing it.

So please. This is a STRONG message to my friends who keep saying that they will introduce someone. Just do it and stop boring me with your repeated excused introductions.

Zzzzz. Oh yeah. A classmate[Degenerated to] accquaintance just got voluntary resigned from her job. She believes that she did a good job, doesn't understand why her colleagues disliked her. But well really...im not the only ones that you are irritating it seems to be. If this keeps happening...maybe its time to look at your own personal hygiene/conduct/altitude towards others.

Good night. Blog. Sweet Dreams People. Oink.

This thing called experience.

After these past few months of working for my current workplace, I find that I have gained alot of knowledge of the working environment that is vastly different from the experiences of working as a intern in my former job attachment in a software development company and as a customer service officer in CPF Board.

Really, I found that in this short time, the experiences and knowledge gained is tremendous, compared to those. You see, if you are an intern, they wouldn't let you touch their systems for fear of accidents or damages occuring. Well, not all companies. This Indian friend of mine was given the opportunity to 'touch' HDB's DB systems, but he ended up erasing the whole thing. Dangers of the job.

So this would be one reason why it is justifable not to let noobs touch the system. However, in this company, I felt that these presumptions have led to my gain of around 300% more insight in my job field, alot more than what I've understood at the other 2 workplaces.

So, I really appreciated that the company hired me. Thank you.
