Charging On

Dark clouds looming outside my room. Can hear claps of thunder sporadically. ITS GOING TO POUR! YEAH!!!! I love rain. Don't know why but when I see those huge droplets falling continuosly...it somehow refreshes me. Rain never fails to charge me up. I am thankful that on a day when I'm feeling rather gloomy and drained, the rain comes to perk me up!!!

Dread this week. 2 huge assignments in my face and I'm half-way done for each. I know I'm at my peak of stress when my brain is actively thinking about my assignments even when I'm asleep! Arghhhhhhhhh....literally losing hair over it (not that I have alot to spare lor). Gross!

Ha..but as I ponder about things, I asked myself if I should need to feel all frus up over assignments! Aren't there more impt things in life than my assignments? Why must all these dumbo assignments and deadlines have such strong control over me, my emotions and well-being!? I believe I'm stronger than that! Come on lah...I'm a product of the education system of Singapore! Haha...endured tougher training prior to NIE.

I always tell myself never to stay in the rut if I ever find myself in one. I have to somehow get out otherwise, I'll just remain there or worse, sink deeper. Its time to get my act together and keep charging on as I've been doing. All these trying moments are mere fleeting ones, but what should stand strong is my inner being , my character. I'm not easily taken down and these assignments will never be able to! Haha yeah!

For now, having a new perspective and making the choice to stay positive and be ME! :)

And waiting for the refreshing downpour to come! Quickly will ya????

Wo(Man) of the hour

As I read the tribute to the late Dr Goh Keng Swee, I can't help but feel this profoundly deep admiration for this immensely brilliant forefather of Singapore. I was in awe of his contributions and how his influence is so pervasive in modern Singapore, yet so few actually heard and know of his legacy. The more I read on about what people remembered of him and his long list of accolades, the more proud I am to be a Singaporean. I never knew places of interests like our zoo, bird park and even Sentosa were his ideas! These are just a tiny fraction of his contributions. My gosh....it was just an incredible discovery and I was hooked to the Saturday's Special edition on 'Remember Dr Goh Keng Swee'. Strangely, my heart was pounding as I read and later reflected on this titan's life. Instinctively, a question came to mind i.e. will there be another titan like Dr Goh, Mr Lee KY, Mr Wee Kim Wee or the other members of the Old Guard in my generation? Will I get to see one em...

Day 3 & 4 - Halong Bay

HALONG BAY Cat Ba Island (2 days, 1 night) After 1 day of exploration of Hanoi city, we headed for Halong Bay via the junkboat. Our destination was on Cat Ba Island where we stayed for the night. It was also there that we ventured onto 'Monkey' Island - not to be deceived; there was only 4 monkeys sighted. The exhilirating part of this journey was the motorbike ride to the ferry terminal to board the boat to 'Monkey' Island. Felt like I was part of a short scene of a James Bond movie (pillion with Pierce Brosnan!). Will never forget the cold draft blowing against my face and just riding up and down the slopes! Cat Ba Island is a very quiet & tranquail place. Little activity especially at night. Wanted to catch the morning activities at the fishing wharf opposite our hotel but could not wake up in time. Nonetheless, managed to capture some snippets of what goes on at the bay. Waiting patiently to board the boat. Snapped this on board the boat. Not a vietnamese but fe...
