Goodbye Tom's Dad...

Another long disappearing act from me from blogging.. And it's only coz I don't wanna keep blogging about unhappy stuff in my life esp relating to my sis anymore.. But yet.. Today's post is gonna be another unhappy one..

Just found out that Tom's (my 2nd longest ex bf that my whole family knows about other than Eeyore) dad has passed away today. It's a total shock to me as I remember vividly that uncle has always been very fit and healthy! My heart sank as I found out and after so many years of not seeing or talking much to Tom, I gathered my courage and left him a message on Facebook to get more details of the wake. I know my family's gonna be super upset with me if they find out that I'm attending a wake when it's still the CNY period (I have a very superstitious family), but.. I really wanna pay my last respects to this man who has all along been very kind and nice to me despite his fierce facade towards his own children.

I can still remember how fearful I was of uncle when I 1st went over to Tom's place. But uncle found me to be well mannered and respectful of others and he warmed up to me very quickly. I'll never forget the green Renault hatchback that uncle used to drive and it was manual mode too!! That was how and when I 1st learnt "driving" and how manual cars work as Tom will let me hold the clutch and he will cover my hand with his and change clutch :) those were the good old days...

And now... Uncle has left us.. To join my daddy and mummy in another world... Hope they will take good care of uncle and wait for me there. I wish and wanna join them soon if I can... I'm really tired of it all...

walking in the woods...

i was watching a tv show just now when i heard this description of love.. "love is like walking in the woods. some people fall in love with the 1st tree that they see, but there are people who cannot decide which tree they prefer. in the end, these people walk out of the woods alone, without finding any tree that they love". i find it quite meaningful. the woods may be big, but some people do manage to find a tree that they love. some people fall in love with the 1st tree that they see and it stays that way forever. some.. walk through the whole woods but due to indecisiveness, are not able to find any tree that they love coz they have either missed the chance n it's too late to turn back or they might have given up the chance. will they regret? some people do but some people don't. there's always 2 sides to a coin, isn't it? some people might have walked into the woods, found a tree that they loved n lost but yet found another tree to stay together wit

Rumour

Went to a club at Clarke Quay last nite called Rumour with the regulars from Instinct. The club is kinda like Dragonfly but the music is not as good, the live band and singers were also not that good. The lead singer who is supposedly the most handsome has got a whiney voice when he sings. Shudders.. Think I still prefer DF anytime, any day. Reached home at 6 and slept at 6.30am.. Tiring.. I have been pubbing and clubbing 6 nites in a row.. Think I need to cut down and relax a bit. But, drinking is a form of relaxation coz I get to talk to friends and enjoy. :p Had a chat with Mingjie (another regular at Instinct) last nite. He truly impressed me by wooing the same girl for 7 years! He knew her 10 years ago, got together for 3 years, broke up and tried wooing her back for 7 years. It's truly fascinating. I'm amazed and at the same time, envious. No guy have ever wooed me for so long.. All just want me to be their gf within days or weeks. Any longer, they give up or pressure me

disappointed n jer's departure...

been a little disappointed with friends.. the term 'friends'.. what does it actually mean? someone u can talk to, someone who will be there for u? how many people can do that for a long time? i'm not very sure but i used to try n keep it contact with close friends in the past. i did all i could to stay in touch n find out what's going on in their lives so that our friendship can stay strong. however, that wasn't the case. 1 fine day, i finally decided to stop taking the initiative to remain in contact with them n the result was, they didn't bother either. what happened to the friendship between us? i'm not sure. but it takes 2 hands to clap n i don't understand y i always have to be the one who makes it happen. i've lost many friends coz of that. upset.. of coz i was. i've always treasured friendships but i don't see the point of hanging on if the friendship is so 1-sided. disappointed.. i've always believed that to be friends, we have to
