I Need A Breather
With so many things happening (not in a good way) in my life, especially at home, and the dreadful load from the work, I really need to look forward towards something, so that there is some light in my life.
1. Movies
Although there are not many blockbusters this season, there are a few light hearted movies that hopefully can lightened me up a bit. Thanks to the CNY and V'day coinciding this year, there are few movies to catch.
Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief 72 Tenants Of ProsperityValentine's DayLittle Big SoldierHot Summer DaysI doubt I will be watching all of them. I am lucky if I catch one or two of them.
2. iPhone
I have been wanting to get this phone (though it's over hyped), since a long time. Now I am just waiting for my contract to be up in April, call Singtel, demand vouchers (the last time I called, they only offer 50 bucks and the person on the other line sounds hostile).
3. Japan Trip
Yes I am going to Japan. Maybe I should read up more on Japan, look at more beautiful pictures, so that the anticipation to go to Japan will be more prominent. As of now, I am still quite chill about this trip.
4. Gatherings
Yes, there are some gatherings here and there. I must always remind myself that it is a fortunate thing to be have friends to meet up with, even if it's the same few, and reminisce the old times.
I hope these few things will keep me going, and be positive in such times. And I also hope my family will be well in these times.
Which reminds me that I need to go to temple soon.

Another Day
It's not that I didn't want to update my blog everyday, but sometimes, I have nothing much to write, or maybe just too tired to think of any things to write. Maybe I should read more, then I can comment what I have read.
Went out with Charm Yik, Meisi, Edlina, and Derek to get Suhui's present on Monday. We looked at a few watches around and finally proceeded to Bras Basah Complex to get the watch. It's really funny when we couldn't agree on the watch to get as Edlina and Meisi had very different opinions. I could almost see that they wanted to pull each other's hair. We even call Suhui to ask what kind of watch she would prefer. Finally, we got 'the one'. Suhui, you better like what we got you, or else...
We had an early dinner at Miss Clarity Cafe near Bugis. Had Porky Onions which was actually quite good. Charm had dory fillet and Edlina had salmon, which all tasted not bad.
My dad has been home for his retirement for about a week, and I am getting used to him being around at home during the day. But I am a bit worried. I am afraid he'll not get used to this doing-nothing-and-staying-at-home lifestyle. You see, my dad is a rather anti-social person. Besides work, he doesn't really like to go out or interact with other people. And when at home, he doesn't really do the housework that much. Therefore besides reading the newspaper, and sleeping, the occasional buying of lunch and the usual morning jog, he doesn't do much. I really wish he can spend his retirement more meaningfully, but he's a rather stubborn and hot-tempered person. I don't know how to tell him. He sometimes get angry even at the minute stuff. It is not that I don't want him to take a good break from work and enjoy his retirement, but it just hurts when I see him sitting on the chair, and staring at blank space.
He is not the kind who likes traveling as well. I really wish he can do something easy and spend his time more meaningfully. I am afraid without much activities, he will go bored and be even more hot tempered than ever.
I am really worried.
Well I hope he can take care of himself and knows what he is doing or has plans what he wants to do.
Going to Suhui's birthday party later. Hopefully I will have fun.
PS:
MirrorMask is actually quite a nice movie.
