Finally ,
finally have some time for myself, setting in front of my desk n listening to Julie London.
Her 'Fly me to the Moon' seems happier than Eva's, yet that's her sorrow.
This is a brand new experience to me, I use to believe ' this is the happy ending', then come to realize this is the start only.
How sad is that?
I don no, but I think it's like took away baby girl's Teddy Bear or favorite chocolate candy..a sudden desperate, silly and naive.
Love is blind, and desperate.
So are we happy now?
Or we faked it.. this happy start.

Sometimes love is confusing, life is messy, and people are lost. Here's some quotes that I thought of sharing:
"Once upon a time, happier ever after. The stories we tell are the stuff of dreams. Fairy tales don't come true. Reality is much stormier. Much murkier. Much scarier.
We all remember the bed time stories of our childhood. The shoe fit Cinderella, the frog was turned into a prince, sleeping beauty was awakened with a kiss. Once upon a time and then they lived happily ever after. Fairy tales. The stuff of dreams. the problem is, fairy tales don't come true. It's the other stories. The ones that start in dark and stormy nights and end in the unspeakable. The nightmares always seem to become the reality."
"Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. We can only lie to ourselves for so long. We are tired, we are scared, denying it doesn't change the truth. Sooner or later we have to put aside our denial and face the world. Head on, guns blazing. De Nile. It's not just a river in Egypt, it's a freakin' ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?
We deny that we're tired, we deny that we're scared, we deny how badly we want to succeed. And most importantly, we deny that we're in denial. We only see what we want to see and believe what we want to believe, and it works. We lie to ourselves so much that after a while the lies start to seem like the truth. We deny so much that we can't recognize the truth right in front of our faces."

July 21st Night
Trying to finish my Psychology paper, which was done in an hour...I only needed a C, can't blame me much on not putting effort it :P
Sweet Lily made me the smily face coconut, awwww :)
Wednesday after work,
went to Arden Fair. Due to the short amount of time I had until picking J up from the airport, I decided to shop...woo hoo!
Went to the best asain fast food place called "Thai Kitchen", and I ordered Penang Chicken, I was confused cuz it sounds like a Malaysian food for some reason, so I asked pro food taster Jeremy Goh, then he goes:
"Nope..Penang curry is a thai dish.. In malaysia we have Penang curry.. it's the usual malaysian normal curry noodle soup...But with a twist of local favour~ Penang island. penang island is a place (duh.. it's an island...Lol) And penang curry is just to describe the curry from there... But not a separate curry dish altogether like in thai.
This is the most confusing dish I've ever had...
Last day in office,
Thanks for the people who organized this sweet surprise farewell, loved the card :)
I am gonna miss you all.
Working in the department of finance was definitely different from what I expected. When people hear Finance, they usually think about number crunching, but it had a lot of analytical stuff and writing involved. It had been a great experience of learning.
