Please let the dolphins go

I was just watching the cove the other night and felt so compelled to write about it. Then, I met the man Ric O'Barry himself. Such a great man, there's nothing pretentious about him he was funny, spontaneous and humble. Attending the dialogue session with him was an eye opener. His words from the cove and the session itself kept repeating by itself on my mind.

You should see dolphins in the wild to understand why they should not be in captivity.
The dolphins are social animals and they travel in groups. The same group that the 27 caught dolphins were from were found 128km away the next day.
Which enclosure, no matter how huge will allow them this kind of freedom and happiness.
RWS, please let the dolphins go. Their home is in the ocean.

No Pain, No Gain - Bikram Yoga

Or rather is it no pain, no lose? Don't ask me to Jia You please, Jian You instead.

Taken my first step towards a healthy lifestyle, a 90 minutes Hot Yoga classes and I try to go everyday. Well, except on weekends. I can never get people who love exercising and running, sweating just for the love of it. I can never get it!!! I wish I can though, it must be lesser a torture to exercise. I do play sports like Badminton and I love it, but other than that, no no...

Got inspired by one of our very own Indonesian singer, Agnes Monica, a very talented young girl. Britney Spears of Indonesia, I always said. I don't really like her, but recently I stumbled across her Twitter and Facebook. Her life is all about Yoga, Pilates, Gym, other than making music. The food she eat everyday is like Sweet potato and chicken breast, one of many similar ones, probably same taste. Urgh... It's no wonder she is shaped like that, and I, like this. LOL!



Anyway, hope I can pull through!!!

From strangers, to friends, to lovers.

We have always thought who we love is special, one of a kind, different. That's why out of millions of people, you fall in love with just one. From strangers, to friends, to lovers. Everything is beautiful in its own way. Happy tears, painful laughter, the world is upside down, all in the name of love. When love is gone, though, from love to hate, nothing is different, it's all the same bloody mess. From lovers to strangers, again. To see someone whom you have known so much, yet when you meet again, you know nothing. Has love changed you or them? It's a painful cycle, but time will heal, but how long will it take? One week? One month? One year? or painfully slow 10 years? Will you love another when you are recovering from that pain? Or will you never again love another the same way, but again in another different way? After all, when you are in love, we are back to square one, they are always special, different?

Wow!!

It has been sooooo sooo long since I checked in here. My hype in blogging has seriously died, dead!!

Life has been nothing and nothing, but work and work. Zzzzzzzz.... how boring! Always getting sick and sick, been having this cough for a month now and I start to wonder if anyone could die from too much coughing. Cough attack! Has never experienced being sick for this long, hope I can be in my tiptop condition soon!

Well, anyway these past few weeks have been fun hanging out with the doggie friends. A great bunch of people, I must say.

Seriously, I want to rant, but I want to sleep! HOhoHO!
Continue lata~

I felt so loved....

People looked at me and they said I am confident, carefree and there's so many other things that I know I am not. There's always this thought in my head that says that I'm only a wallflower, always. That I will never make an impact on others like how I see some of my friends are.

I was looking for my Blood donor card to check my blood type, searching through every nook and cranny, and I still never found it. Instead, I found this precious little bag where I kept most of my priceless memories. All that birthday cards, greeting cards, farewell letters, even those corny love letters from the past that I never thought about. I felt so amazingly loved, so amazingly lucky to hold a place in their hearts, even for just a moment in time.

Couldn't care less what wallflower I might be, for the people who loved me, I'm always the prettiest. Thank you for being there for me, whoever you are, wherever you are.. I'm so blessed!

August Rush

Just done rewatching August Rush, it reminds me of how talent works in this world. Some are born with it, yet never been acknowledged, while some are hard groomed with hard cash to shine no matter what. While some seriously have the luck of money, people affinity and all other things lucky, they got famous.

There are just some people on TV that I thought, why on earth are they on TV in the first place? Mediocre performance, millions of people are better than that, yet they didn't get famous. In the end, I brushed it off with well, it's their luck.

August Rush reminds me of a video I watched before. From my thinking, this girl probably had very musically talented and famous parents, who abandoned her after she was born handicapped. Explaining her musically talented genes. Her hands moved as if someone put her on a puppet string, flew smoothly and perfectly. Unbelievable!!

On GE... again...

Looks like the GE fever has not subsided yet. People all around Singapore are still talking about it, grumbling even. I think what makes me interested in this GE is that I have listened to the agonies of Singaporeans being a Singaporean. Countless numbers of taxi drivers have complained of the bloody exact same things and God knows the amount of taxi I took. It's scary in here and when the people on top don't realize what the people down there are suffering and slowly dying.

Who am I to say? I am just a foreigner in Singapore, my PR is given by PAP. Although I would say that my concerns for Singapore's growth is more than what some of my ''Native" Singaporean friends had. Right from Secondary school I am here, I heard them saying they could not wait to leave and migrate to another country. I remembered distinctly, even when I was 15, thinking how lucky they were to be here.

What I can't stand most is the way they put some parliament-misfit people in. Public protested of the emptiness she had shown, the mistakes she did. Seriously, for me, although unfair, I don't have the littlest of good vibes about her. What to do? Politics is never fair, it's never good....
