I am expecting.....doc say it will deliver in 2.5yrs time :(
Feel like a pregnant woman now! Even by swallowing my saliva makes me feel like puking! Went to the dentist today to do my upper braces and I thought it would just be the same as the lower ones. But who knows I have a metal piece on my upper jaw that points inward just like a finger irritating my throat!
Now if anyone wants to lose weight and do not want the trouble of using your fingers to induce puking, try putting on braces :) Now just hope my tongue will try its very best to accomodate this new "furniture" in my mouth coz I think I will have it in my mouth for the next 2.5yrs. Enough time to have to pregnancy :P
More "furniture" means more corners to clean too. Just tried and found out even my dental picks can not reach them. Good news comes in pairs :( Now all my four side of molar are in pain too. Merely shutting my mouth gives a slight tightness and pain sensation. A prelude to impacting wisdom tooth??
How can I enjoy bah kua and my department retreat next week ?? :(

Cheong ah!
Concept of New Year is marvelous. A good way or at least a good reason to start afresh. Anyone can have a new look, new hairdo and best of all a new resolution for being better. One can argue that goals can be set anytime of the year but setting it in a new year just give a more "auspicious" drive forward.
Although we often do not set goals that will fail, but the fire for the goal often fades off rather rapidly with the celebrations. But even failure to reach the goal after a short moment is better than no goals at all.
I once read that goals have to be high and difficult so that the result is better. But that often leads to dissappointment. A goal that is too generic and easily achieveable does not give the extra leap forward. Maybe happiness and achievement is about knowing yourself and setting reasonable goals.
New year is also the best way to get in touch with friends and relatives :)

Sad SG
After our reunion dinner on eve of CNY, our family met with something interesting on our way home :) Sparks up some interesting discussion after that as well.......but a rather thought provoking and sad ones.
CNY eve is the day for most chinese to have our reunion dinner where the whole family will try their very best to crowd around the steamboat for a very cosy dinner :) But we met a guy about late 20s trying to get some $ from other passenges. His excuse initially was to get $10 for transport fare but of course I turned him down reason being why you need $10 unless you want to take a cab.
Then after several rejections, he called up a friend talking about wanting to lend $100 to spend the CNY with his mum thats hungry at home. After his friend agreed, he asked us for some coins to make his way there. And we just pooled our coins together.
Interesting part is during his "begging" process, some people was in fact shunning him, being sarcastic and hurling remarks at him. And later after we alight, found from my 2 brothers (Ex police force NS) that he might have just been released from prison!
Everyone goes through rough patch before and we all want help from someone at times. But no one on the bus gave him any on our family are the only one that pooled some coins at the end for his trip.
Now where is compassion? He's action was non-abusive, rather polite and not at all persistent. And we can all feel sadness in him. He even wants our contact to return us next time. Some might say giving him is unwise as he might be a cheat. But I suppose our world has been filled with well attired cheats. Our economic system was crush just recently by institutional cheats.
It is rather saddening not because of this poor man but what has people grown to become? Being cold or rather so full of pride, not sparing a thought for the under-privilege. We are well praised for our education system but how about our basic humanity and kinship?
If indeed he was so poor, just hope he could just quickly reach home to give his mum a nice and warm reunion dinner :)

狗男女
小狗狗的真挚爱情，伴侣临死的依依不舍，真让人感慨。
我们人类所向往与感动的爱情故事既然浮现在我们视为畜生的狗狗上。
想着想着，当不幸发生在我们身上时，会有同样的态度与行动吗？
或许会在滥用我们所说的理智，觉得她死了，最多叫个救伤车，
哭得凄凄惨惨，但如果跟狗狗的真挚爱情呢？那无奈的悲痛 。 。 。
爱情当然不在于掉多少的眼泪，而是言语与行动无法表达的默契。
那最初的相遇如果建立在肌肤的渴望与爱恋，这所谓的默契会在吗？
那如果已在恋爱中的情侣，因为有了时间的彼此了解，
而发现身边的他有了无法改变的问题，是包容任命，还是选择放弃？
包容任命能够白头谐老吗？那选择放弃就能找到心议的对象吗？
