all i want for christmas...

...is not my two front teeth. They are still very much in tact... a little protuded though. :p Christmas is about giving... about joy and peace. It is also about hope. It is not about the material things that we often chase after. Everyone's different. If we dig deeper, we will find somewhere kept in a little nook and corner of our hearts is the yearn for simplicity. Or am I wrong? All I want for Christmas is ... ...a home I can call my own. A home where I live by my own rules... and not by others. A home where I can say and do what I like without any qualms or considerations. ...a companion who will spend a little more time with me for once. A companion who will stop seeing lifeless "creatures" such as a desktop or/and PSP as his best friend. A companion who will learn to keep a work life balance. ...a little bundle of joy to make my life a little more complete. Merry Christmas everyone.

Satisfaction... or the lack of it

Human beings are  funny creatures. They can never be satisfied....or can they? Have not blogged about work for a very long time. I thought things have settled down... and I am beginning to see my value... and had at one point of time, believe that this is where I will stay on for a good few years.... maybe get myself up the corporate ladder. My fellow colleague said this to me..." No doubts about your capability. No offence to your ability to deliver. But, i think, you are not a corporate climber, and that's going to bring you down." Am I not? It affects me. What he said. Does that mean, I will never get what I want from my career. Am I just going to be a lowly paid, diligent executive all my life. An executive with a staff who's job title is also an executive. I want more. I do. But.. all these corporate crap is too much for me take. Why do people like to go all out to do everything just to impress the one above. Isn't it tiring .... ? It's not me

All the hype about babies .. part 2

It seems like people ard me are either pregnant...trying to get pregnant... or even new-mothers. Because of that... I am like living in a pressure cooker where everyone's asking me when's my turn... " You have been married for almost two years hor... don't want to have kids ah?" " Quickly have a baby so for mum have company..." "It's always better to have babies early....." And the list of comments go on and on and on and on! Well.... maybe I should use this avenue to tell everyone: YES I AM TRYING.... but i truly appreciate it if people can stop asking! Things dun happen overnight... and I will let everyone know if i do get preggers k!

LOVE

Image
It was a day filled with so much love. The love between a newly wedded couple... the father and daughter love.... the mother and son love... and of course the quiet love my bro and I share. My brother got married yesterday. It was an event that took him a lot of courage to go through, but I can tell he is now really truly happy. He is himself... finally. I am glad the wedding is over. Glad that Bro has finally put the past behind him. It was not easy to forget what happened in the past. It didn't seem too long ago that my bro was going tru a very rough patch... a period of woe. It took him a lot of strength and courage to go on. I am glad that the whole family stayed together to see my brother through all these. And we are truly happy for him. Evie... welcome to the family! Well....it's not my wedding... but it's my blog! So... i deserve to put my pic on this post... esp. all the running ard for the couple for the wedding! Ha Ha!
