Title: Drawing - a talent i yearn for
Drawing the picture of that someone, i just could not get it. I, thus, asked myself why the image of that someone in my mind differed so much from what i drew it. Then came a voice from within, "Ask no further." With a short struggling for an answer, the mystery was uncovered. The flaw lay with my hands. I was no cream of the crop in Art.
Never mind i could not sketch even a proper outline of her. At least i got a cute, cartoon-like drawing of her. What's more, i could only pray that i would always remember her look and let no exclusive memories fade away.
Talent i yearn for.

friends not long time but close
Title: friends not long time but close
Met Pearlyn, Aik Nen, Gerry, Pak Wing, Amy, Melise and Jia Feng on 17 June 08.
大家好久不见!
I sounded like we are long time friends, though we only know each other for a few months but not yet a year. Good to meet up once in a while. Tonight was simple but worth it, especially when it is getting harder for me to meet you guys and gals (Mel, i am no sexist). I feel no longer as young as before and thus the distance between me and the school and you all. We'll meet up soon, yeah? Ok, i help you all to answer: yeah!

孙女's birthday - 1606.
Title: 孙女's birthday - 1606
The once-a-year occasion is here. It is 孙女's birthday - 1606. The day i can hardly forget since she is one of my long-time friends. If there is a ladder in calculating her friendship value, she will be sitting on top of this value ladder. It is her DAY.

Floraison
Title: Floraison
Floraison. I am amused by this word. It simply means flowering, blossoming. The word is in French. To me, it brings about a greater meaning in this term. It shows us the tone of being happy. Besides that, i see rhetoric in it as it convinced me of the perceived idea of floraison.
"Days of floraison have come, arrived. But once i look back, they are my history - greater than all tangible desires can ever bring. - Kwan Chet"
Floraison, F-L-O-R-A-I-S-O-N, FLORAISON!

Decision-makers, fun makers
Title: Decision-makers, fun makers
The Genting trip was great, surely with my cousins and brother. This trip marked the era where we will really step into the world of our own. What i mean here is that, in the past, we used to have adults accompanying us to the Outdoor Theme Park or anywhere in the resort hotel and then during the late night, they will only have their fun at adult-only premises. But now the adults will have their fun the whole day and so do we. We played till 4am in the morning and on top of that, ate ice-creams outside the hotel where it was freezing cold, so chilled. Outrageous, when we cousins got together.
Therfore, i conclude the next holiday trip, we cousins, can go on holidays ourselves - the decision-makers, the fun-makers.

Beauty from far, far from beauty
Title: Beauty from far, far from beauty
"Beauty from far, far from beauty."
Magnification brings the pair of eyes the evidence of absolute value of any tangible object. The first look may be misleading. The person may be once perfect in your eyes, can be ruined if her/his behaviour diverts from your expectations.
To realise the true value of any precious people, take a closer look. OBSERVE! She/he might treat you better than anybody else, without you knowing.
Time for valuation!

attention dream
Title: attention dream
Living a dream? Must be. Now, it is clear what it means to have attention of others. Their askings make one feel wanted, belonged. It is an irreplaceble feeling. 'haha, haha, haha' for all. Life is all about 'haha, haha, haha'.
I'm learning to better myself and add more values to others' lives.

April SWEET!
Title: April SWEET!
Been hiatus for the past month. The past month was a wonder. Time brought me a gift, not one, not 2 but many more till i lost count. Precisely, they are all special, although they have their distinctive abilities to make me feel breathless at times. Some argue with me, others ask favours from me. Some play with me, others take me for a carrier. I realised i have taken up many roles, all for them. How meaningful for me!
Seriously, it is ain't easy handling them. I have to know each one of them personally but i mind not a single bit. For first time, i can truly feel that not a day's work is done. Perhaps the meanings of working and playing have blurred in a very, very favourable way. Because of them, i think i finally can see what i will do in the future. I guess i affirmed my true self. Oh my, what a discovery! Fruitful.
I appreciate it when they ask if i will be working the next day. Time for me to show my appreciation in a big way. Sooner or later, we are all going to be like brothers and sisters. The next life lesson you should be taught is to be self-less. Leave out pettiness, be less than a calculator, be more than a Santa Claus.
But i know as time goes by, the day of departing is approaching. The scary thing to find out in life is that one can feel very distanced from a person whom one used to share a close relationship with. I have a few wishes that i want to fulfill before leaving. I hope i can get them done.

in power or 'borrowed' power?
Title: in power or 'borrowed' power?
Are you in power or 'borrowed' power? I just realised that. The highest position (e.g. owner of a company) gives anyone who commands in that rank, the mandate to lead his/her people. There are a certain way that i believe that some who do not belong to rank of kings, generals but still they do scare/frighten people through the powess of a ruler. As a ruler of kingdom, he is bestowed with the highest authority. Characters with close relation to the one holding great power can gain such power. For example, the king may place the assignment/subordinates under a certain person and thus that person may gain power. The person may seek to gain real power as the subordinates may not be in awe of him. So he could use cooperation as a reason. For him to use that reason, he understood that he could wield power under the approval of the king. Thus when the king is not around, the person may threaten in the name of the king and all the rebellious may fall to their feet, tremble at him as though the king possesses the person.
Thus, cooperation with the king shall see one gaining power. It does not gain much respect though since threats in the name of the king may come into play.
