To Death with Love

Dear Death,

Tell me something I don't know about you?
That you are a cause of our tears, sadness and sorrow.
We mourn because you exist.
That you never fail to meet us at the end of it all,
Or, is it you that has ended it for us.

You are part of the destiny, the path and the cycle,
of Birth, Life, Death and Rebirth.
Death. The Anti-Climax, a sudden halt to all that is alive.
The point they say "your life flashed past ur eyes"
The expected ending, that undermines our purpose.
For what we live if we should die?

Or we lived to die to live again.
The heavenly realms, so they speak, for the good,
And the the fury of hell for those who've sinned.
If death is eternal, then better dead than alive.

You are the truth of life,
Because through death, we know we lived.
If we live only for a day,
What would we be doing today?
If everyone lived everyday like their last,
We could be living in a world of love.
Or we could be complaining about what we did not have
on our last day, everyday.
Choose.

We can't fight You, Death,
But Rockstars live forever.

Sincere condolences to all who loved Wayne, drummer of rockband The Suns.

Electrify My Life "BPB"

Last night we celebrated Marcelly's Birthday Party at Gotham Penthouse in Clarke Quay. A themed club with male strippers and hot dudes... YES! Men... for the women rights and "Bachelorette" hen parties...

So the sexual charge was peaking high, as we saw the babies from Johannesburg dance their butts around over 3 sets of performances. After the 2nd set I was convinced that they were never gonna be mine, but I wondered what they would really be like off-stage... Or backstage. *Ooo* As I discussed with Weihao, we sorta agreed that the most "provocative" of em probably is most decent, and vice versa. But truth is, you can never tell...

I turned my attention to the ladies on the floor. All the girls looked on with a tinge of love-lust glow, and "we" just couldn't keep out gaps closed. Heh. I definitely blushed. And some girls really played the heat, and teased the boys. I took the back seat for a cooler night. I don't exactly like getting high and dry.

*HAHAHA*

Well, it was truely a fun night we had. Tequila Shots, Tequila pops, Henessy, Johnie Walker...

So Marcelly, the birthday girl, without a doubt, was pretty sloshed. Yet while she layed by the pillar near the Taxi Stand... She could still identify friends passing by. She's incredible.

Met up with some friends whom I haven't seen in a long time since I left University Hostel. We sent Marcelly and Mr Gan (her BPB) home. That girl could still cook us Kimchi Noodles. *Babe, it was one of the best I've had since* Did a little more catching up, and then got on home.

"BPB" - "Beautiful Perfect Boyfriend"

This dude stood up to the challenge! He watched on the lap dance, encouraged it, cheered it on! The girl on the hot seat was his GF. His face didn't change a bit!

Life Changing Amount of Money

Does Money change your life?
Yes.
Does Money change you?
Not always...

Recently I've been asking people around me. What could be a life changing amount of money for them?

SGD 1 million dollars was the unanimous answer.

When I went for an audition for the game show "Deal or No Deal", they also asked me this question. I too said one million.

I had gone to try out the game show just for a chance to get enough money to pay off my school fees loan and just perhaps have some for home improvements. SGD250,000 was the grand prize offered. Well just for reference sake, you can't buy a nice apartment to stay for that amount of money, but you can definitely change a hell lot about life, for things that need money.

WHen they asked me what I would do with the 1 million dollars, I mentioned to give my parents a new home to stay, and then a place for myself, and then I paused.... becos having done that, the money would now be insufficient for anything more.

Money. Life seldom ends with enough money, it also is never about the money. How much is enough? Depends on what you want to do with it.

I figured, SGD 100,000 would be more than sufficient amount to change my. No I will not retire immediately into old age at 26 years old, but I would have gotten off the debt of twenty thousand dollars, make some home improvements, consider to do some investments, and continue to work and prepare, to allow for the next phase of life to unfold. With that I will be free from a host of necessities that incessantly required the attention of my finances.

Weibin asked me how I would change. I don't think I will change. If there were things I wanted to change about myself, they were things money can't change. And if anything was to change, it would be the quality of life and the liberation from nagging things like a washing machine that doesn't work properly, a fridge that's too small, and the tropic heat that endlessly calls for a new AC system to be in house. Most importantly, I'll still be searching for that cheap ticket out of town this summer, hang out with the same friends I love, go to the same places I like.

Lastly, it will be a waste of money, if there are no uses for it.
