went to pulau ubin on sat for some walking ( =( ) with lynn, merv and kev. yes walking. =(. i had so looked forward to cycling there! =(
never been there before but it seemed quite 'commercialized' for us visitors. not much of kampong style near the jetty, but further in there were some stayers. we wanted to find chek jawa, the marine place but sadly we got lost and couldnt find it. ON FOOT! anw i saw charlotte from jc and she was on bike but she too got lost. heh so not too bad for us. and i saw jill from fb too. wad a small small world. along the way i got bitten by a gazillion mozzies. argh. damn mozzies. they stick to me like im their food or somethin. i was quite glad to be out of there when we did.
went for a sandwich lunch, home to clean up, did some shoppin, and caught a good game bet liv and aston v at grapevine after that. the tea there is really quite nice with unique tea flasks and lil teacups.

i like the April 21 2006 post of hers .
the ways of life in amsterdam, the freedom, the restriction, the trust, the ways of teachings. no matter how outsiders think of life and people there, there are always things in which others can learn from.
i miss europe. i wish i can go back again sometime again.
on a totally different note. everyone desires the elusive and mysterious..

kouped tis from vin's blog.
"its loss that makes u hurt, not love. if one day you realise you are in a failing relationship and you can tell regardless of how much this person loves you, you can't stay together - AND you still feel affection for that person, even when you know it isn't working. And the dead, dull, dread you feel in your heart when you know you must hurt that person. Then, you realise life, sometimes is like this. You hurt some, you get hurt some . You realise it isn't always about you, but circumstances. You realise that circumstances change, but not always for the better, yet not necessarily for the worse. And your capacity to tolerate pain, and to love becomes bigger, deeper, broader.
Ultimately, you learn to give more and cherish more, and be more tender, because you have been hurt before."

finally i have time to sit down and do my photos and usual surfing after the power supply unit problemo is solved!
firstly, shanghai was colddddd... brrr. i went with only 1 knitted sweater. and my mum best, went with 2 super thin windbreakers even after me telling her it was about 7-18 degrees over there! anyway on our first day there it rained! not too heavy, but enough to dampen our spirits to shop. after checking into our service apartment and catching up on beauty sleep of 2 hours, we had lunch and proceeded to the Xiang Yang Fashion district of Shanghai. Cus it was raining, there werent many tourists nor touts. Xiang Yang district is like a smaller version of Chatuchak in Bangkok! heh. like reliving the good old days of bangkok. it was all open air though, so we all had our umbys and walked from stall to stall to look at the goods. tonnes of imitation branded stuffs. LV gucci ferragamo balengcia coach and what nots. and of course including sports brands le coq nike adidas puma. its a pity they're closing down soon in june.
anyway basically other than some sceneries and shopping, theres really nothing much to do in shanghai. we went to walk around the shanghai "tan" or rather the coast of shanghai wadever u say it in english. its abit similar to the one in hongkong, forgot whats the name already, been 5 years since i last went to hkg. oh we went to this town/village Zhou Zhuang. its supposedly like the venice of italy, surrounded by water, travel by small sampans, with many bridges linking the pieces of land. not very interesting for me though.
ok im tired of typing so much.. let the pictures do the talking!

had quite a good night yesterday chilling with a different group of friends at momo. we were at the live band area the entire night. the band wasn't too bad but it wasnt that crowded to spice up dat kinda mood. how ironic am i. when its crowded i complain, when its not i complain as well. but they didnt play my song!! grr.
amazingly i didnt reaally get drunk and puke and get all over myself. i think im beginning to hold my liquor well, ok not well enough to walk upright but enough to get myself home with a lil help. =p
looking forward to my shanghai trip next week! yaY!

went for a jog today after work today in a long long time. luckily the weather was good. i actually met ps at the stadium jogging as well! wad a coincident since we both didnt ask each other.
when i was strolling home after that i realised what great guts i had last time in hall. last time i could go jogging alone in the late evening around 11 and not feel scared even though there were forest and dark roads and construction workers and what nots.. now i have to check my back for anyone walking nearby. greater guts comes with independence.
alrite, now my entire body is aching from the physical training we had yesterday and the jog.. i hope we do good this weekend and keep up a good fight even if we don't win.
