Sherlock Holmes

Put two grown impeccably-intelligent boyish-men togather, I go ditzy.

The old British humour, I like. Sarcasm at it's class.

Which reminds me, how much an obnoxious turn off it is when the local uses it; it's just not cool.

I have been working everyday for the month of December. The kind of working life it used to be at Brewerkz and Zoo. I kinda like it. I like the change of environment. Like the sitch I get exposed to. Definitely like getting the extra pocket money.

Sherlock Holmes was a nice morning Christmas treat from The Moose. Very christmassy.

The eve was celebrated at the Norfor's. Big prezzie from the sister. Adorably packed chocos from the princess and a christmas song shared by the J. Haven't felt like Christmas in a couple of years and I'm glad it didn't feel too far off even when it isn't with the aunts and cuzzies back at Negri Sembilan.

It was nice and cosy. Just the way I like it.

"I wish it was christmas todaaaaeyyyy..."

Too nice. Tooo nice.

Sam Worthington, my new man on the list. Although I've never quite fancy a SAM. Unless it's a girl.

Steve Irvine, Michael Jackson, David Carradine, now Brittany Murphy...

All of whom I've reacted with a genuine shock; a defense mechanism. My naive mind denies any death before my own. I couldn't believe and truly finding it hard to accept that these glamours should face death at such an untimely hour of my life.

My folks think I'm naive. I may be. Honestly I'd prefer it no other way. Although some parts of me, wants to think the positivities of making that break and be relieved of financial obligations. Perhaps money can be good. Unfortunately for me, living in an era of where money talks, I just can't see the good of it.

To me, it's (money) become a religion which we manipulated to our own conscientious convenience. Money is good when you get to buy gifts for the love ones. To provide for those in need. Money is evil when you want more and will stop at nothing, not even with a nagging conscience, to get more.

Where I live, I see more of the latter.

Starfish thinks we should treasure money, so money will follow, and I, of course, snapped.

I have never been comfortable around money for some obscure reasons. When there's a chance of getting more, I simply turn away from it, thinking there's always a catch.

And then I calmed down and started thinking... Money IS neutral. It is a necessity in this day of age. Although I'd much prefer a time where we'd be trading items, but I guess money makes it all the more convenient. So, fair. I've finally accepted that money is a necessity.

But that don't mean that I'd go looking for more. I'll take my chances when my time is ripe.

Usual Suspects

I'm confused as to whether it's Verbal Kint or Kevin Spacey that I'm attracted to. There's this subtle charm within the characters that I like; makes it all the more intense.

I've been thinking about my year 2010 resolutions. And thinking about making only ONE resolution. I realized I don't do well with too many goals in mind. But I do believe with one set, others will follow through. I just gotta choose the right one.

So far, I know that this year had been one angry year for me.

Besties and I are planning to usher in the new year with cocktails. A happy drink to start the year with.

Trips to Japan are in the planning. New jobs are in the planning. Driving license is in the planning.

I see changes in 2010. Drastic changes.

2012 / Superman Returns

2012 was a tad bit heavy. Really don't fancy the idea of seeing Earth in smithereens. The idea of Noah's Ark again somehow hit a very dark spot though...

Had a re-run of Superman Returns. I forgot how classicly handsome he is...

Suandy's 18th birthday was celebrated over the weekend. Chilling out at Novotel. Tucked away at the ends of Clarke Quay with a quiet view of Singapore River and the cannery... I like. We all like.

And work sucks. I'm in too much of a financial stress to want to stick through anymore. I'm way underpaid for the amount of obligated favours I thought was to my convenience.

Arrghhh.
