That’s what friends are for

   Posted by: WhiRL   in Colors of Life

Apparently that when you are friends with someone you do things you usually won’t do. In fact, you’ll go places you never go. In fact we would die for them. Gladly lay our lives down for them. But we will never bow before them am I right? Hahaha

Oh well I was thinking I would add an extra to that, you would even blog a tag for them! Hahaha

I guess people want to know more that’s why they tag you but what if we refuse to do? I mean should I get offended if you don’t accept my tag? Hahaha

Oh well, this is for my dear friend whom I miss so much. My blogging Si Fu whom I owe this blog to (thats why no matter how much I don’t want I must pretend to be honored he tagged me). Oops did I type that out? Hehe. Here it goes!

1. To watch or to participate?

I am a keen observer. So watch out I’m not only watching I’m listening. I tend to pick things up visually and be able to reconcile all the details in my head without trying it out. That helped me learn throughout my younger ‘anti-social’ years. BUT now I realise I learn more when I am involved with people. I do not learn about the thing we are doing but I learn about the person. It fascinates me that we are so very different in many ways yet so much connects us as humans. Many of life’s greatest and most important skills cannot be learnt by just observation that is my conclusion. Therefore now I participate…..but be careful, I’m watching you.

2. Malls, catalog shopping, or the Internet?

I love catalogs. I can read specifications for hours. Then when I found the thing I like, I just search on the internet for the best place to get it. Run into the mall and get it then run out! I’m more like a 3-in-1 come to think of it. Hahhaa

3. A bath or shower?

Adino’s creativity to try to make every answer a poem is driving me crazy. How could he do that? Oh well, I will just answer straight forwardly. I love showers. HOT showers. Hot until it steams up the entire bathroom. I could stay there for hours. I usually take these showers in the morning. Ah!!! Just had one this morning.

4. To talk to people by telephone, in person or by email?

Phone…I believe that is the medium in which least miscommunication can happen in my context. I believe that to be the case only when people are clear communicators la. Still it provides the means for the most effective communication in our culture where people hardly have the time to meet.

In person though is the ideal that I would prefer.

5. Typing or writing?

I can’t write for longer than 30 mins now. It hurts like mad….I have only a few pens and the latest gift was from the Ang Family which I am so thankful for as it so useful to me now. So typing is the answer thought then I do music compositions, I prefer writing somehow the flow of ideas are better

Have you seen my childhood?

   Posted by: WhiRL   in Colors of Life

This is me, What do you think? Cute?

I have been tagged again! Sigh, I am totally hesitant to do this, but I’m doing this for someone who requested that I be more personal in my blog. I don’t know how to get more personal then to tell you about my childhood.

Have you seen my childhood…..? I can’t remember much of it. I have been asking myself why for years. I’m also going to share that reminiscing on this is very painful for me. For the past few months all I have been trying to do is forget my past. So for the people who requested this please know I’m shaking inside as I write this. I want to burst into tears but I can’t as there are people around me now….

This is because I cannot look back without travelling through the memories that haunt me. For example in trying to think of this, I was brought to remember that I have a picture that means a lot to me about my childhood. I laminated it nicely and gave it to someone I cared about and now it is gone….I don’t even know how to describe how important that picture is to me. Remembering things of my past somehow doesn’t bring back anything good nowadays.

Here now is another of me. This one is me and my bro. Cute? He was way cuter. Still is. Read the rest of this entry »

You know what? Unlike my dear friend Adino, I was never deprived. That doesn’t mean I was part of the popular group of students in school. I was ANTI-SOCIAL. I hated this stuff. I didn’t even want to be in the class magazine thing. Refused to pay that extravagent price for some things I want to forget. Hated taking pictures. I’d rather disappear and I did for a long long time. They probably are asking if I am still alive. Hahaha.

That was the past! Now I’m a changed man. All credit due to my lovely gal Miracle whom you could see in both picture and video (many couldn’t see that there was a small video link) format here. They say when you become a father the world around you changes. Why didn’t they mention about being a God-father?

As responsible God-father, I shall now attempt a feat never seen before by mankind. Read the rest of this entry »
