Mood: *Life is…Duh-ing*

Sunday damn on, 6am went all the way to Bishan to pick up Han for our weekly jog in East Coast Park. Reach there at 6.20am and actually survive the 1 hour jog, from carpark B1 to Bedok Jetty. Man, we are strong… Had a smoke break at the jetty though haha. Seriously, the smoke at the end was actually our motivation throughout the run. It’s terribly unhealthy but hey, that’s life.

Monday: due to some calendar screw up, I happened to have the car for the entire day. Oh boy, sounds fun and guess what I did with it? I went to buy CDs and a stand fan. Nice… Met up with Kwek for his stuffs’ transportation. Had dinner and later at the generosity and hospitality of the Kwek’s family, I spent 1 hour at their house chit chatting and trying to siam their beloved felines… No choice, to the felines, I look like a tweety bird on BBQ…

Tuesday: Finally I am free to rest at home. Despite being out of job for like 8 working days, I practically spent the remaining 7 days running errands, meeting friends and doing other “don’t know what” stuffs. So what did I do when I am free… In between converting all my CDs to hard disk, some 400 of them all, in lossless format (read Damn SOLID quality), I watch music Dvds, and even have time to short circuit my Guitar amplifier. Drats, speaking of it, I asked Kwek and double confirm with my Crate™ instruction manual on its dual voltage thingy. Nabei, everything looks good to go but when I plug into the main, it got electrical-shocked instantly. Must have killed the safety fuse thingy inside it (hopefully that is all I killed), now have to find a repair chap… As if I fucking free like that…

Oh yes, remind me to kick Giggs in his ass when I meet him later. Wedding arrangement lah… Tell him specifically to put us in a table of girls and guess what he did? He put us in a table of girls… All Aunties (save for the pretty vegetarian lady opposite me). Nice work… How can he rob his friend of the chance to mingle with pretty things? ARGH… I had to make small talk with everyone but SYT.

Moving on, I bought 李宗盛 recent Taipei concert DVD. It was (how you put it across in English), Refreshing. To hear those familiar songs again but in another perspective; man versus the usual lady’s point of view. I must say, it gave me a different feel the way he presented it; his voice, his feelings. He should know best the feeling each song represents. After all, he is the author for all his songs in the concert. His voice is not that captivating but what he lacks, he made up for with his sincerity and unique rendering of “moment in time” feeling; the longing, the rejection, sorrow aftermath, despair, loneliness and then that single ray of fleeting hope throughout the concert repertoire.

Ah, the pain of life...

For us all to live in such grief, only to find comfort in false hope and rejection, again and again, like a never ending ride to nowhere.

But I seek comfort in my hope that in a city of infinite options, I have only one. Though you never will know my love for you, but hey, at least somewhere, somehow, a bird is missing you right now.

Oh well, to share with you my joy, sorrow, happiness, despair and therein hope (hopefully), for this limited time only, whoever leave a comment in my blog or an sms to my cell will get a copy (original somemore) of his DVD and may you too, enjoy the moment of feelings I have felt throughout the concert. Too good to be true? Why yes, all you need is your nick/name (contact email) or your sms and I will personally hand delivered/Speedpost it right to your door step.
