The clock of life is wound but once, and no man has the power to tell just when the hands will stop, at late or early hour. Now is the only time you own. Live, love, toil with will. Place no faith in time. For the clock may soon be still.

The Christmas Spirit Revisited

Once again, it's almost Christmas! If you asked 10 people what Christmas means to them, you'll most likely get 6-8 different answers. There isn't a conventional way how one should celebrate christmas, often we gather to catch up with friends, exchange presents, laugh and joke about everything under the sun.

In the midst of our celebration, most of us forget that it's the day of Jesus was born. We in actuality are celebrating his entry into our humble earth where he could have chosen to appear in power and majesty to escape the sufferings of this world. It is the love and the hope he carried in his heart that touched the hearts of many and hence till this day and forever more that we celebrate his glory.

Mmm.. maybe that's why people are so much friendlier, more generous and more helpful in this time of the year. Noneheless, something still lacks in the streets of Orchard where people stream in and out with huge shopping bags whlist flashes of light from the camera go by. Perhaps it is due to the commercialism and people becoming more self oriented.

I believe in that the christmas spirit is something strong and powerful that connects each individual soul from all walks of life... something I wanna indulge in... something I look forward too. May we make the best of our lives especially with our love ones, not only on Christmas but every other day.

Happy Weekend

This is our first weekend together after exams! Wee!

I have been so lazy, procrastinatinng all the things I should have done... should have packed my room since 3 weeks ago. Haha...

I went to the library to borrow some receipe books of which I ended up zapping pages on the day of its due date. Even the investment book I borrowed didn't manage to capture my attention and hence was left neglected over the course of 3 weeks.

I feel like cutting my fringe, but it's like such a waste of money when my hair is just fine.

So many things I wanna do, and so many more things I wanna do with Fred. Yippie!

Insanity

It has been fun spending the last 2 weeks trying to catch up with my life... meeting friends, shopping, crazy eating, reading, watching tv series... things that i deprived myself from doing for the past few months.

I will be running half marathon this Sunday while Fred will be taking his CFA Level 1. I think I am not mentally preapared for this race. The first 2 k was torturous... I felt like giving upthe ... next 3 k was a walk in the garden... guessed my body was used to the motion.

Many good things have happened to us of late.... really must thank the gods for hearing our prayers.
