i like it, its nice. slim. and business like. i can update my tweets, surf the net while waiting for people who are really late when it comes to meeting me, etc etc. just that the curve’s an older version, a tad slower and less stylish looking.
first it was twenty four. back then, “twenty four” seemed like an eternity.
the first of the twenty four was miserable. but, i forged friendships. through these friendships, i learnt what selflessness was. when people brought back stolen food items. life was miserable, but i was in a company of people who taught me what the lighter side of life was. life was miserable, but thank God for the angel who was by my side. yea, the angel was imperfect, but through the imperfections, the angel was made perfect.
twenty four quickly turned twenty one. we parted ways, we went to different places. and misery started to mutate itself.
misery struck right after christmas that year. i came into this place with a heavy duffel bag and an even heavier heart. i endured misery for all the wrong reasons, i wanted to prove people wrong. but, i gave up, and i quit.
i felt like i lost the battle. the battle of proving people wrong. perhaps they were right about me.
i was alive, but my heart was likened to a lifeless fish. it was eighteen.
i got transferred to heaven. Heaven rocked. the people were great. i made mistakes, but i didnt get punished. heaven was awesome. i had the greatest time of my life in heaven.
then, news came, i was to go back down to earth again, with a heavy heart and a box of farewell chocolates, i left heaven. i came to earth, with a heart full of disbelief. but i impressed people. particularly this person. this person respected my views, even though i was much lower in status than he was. soon, he got left for a different land, while i stayed on. He got me staying on.
now i’m left with five. how will this five unfold? i don’t know. but i know, i’ve done my bestest in these nineteen. this five, is time for me to unwind.
welcome to 2009. 2008 was an eventful year. VERY.
before i start, thanks for the Fred Perry Polo Tee kristy! likes it lots. and thanks for the hugo boss fragrance eunice. likes it!
i got into OCS. and dropped out. it didnt really affect me at first, but it affected my parents a lot. and, it eventually affected me. i thought, “If God really planned for me to get into OCS, then why in the world is so much sh*t flying my way?” i thought i was a failure. i failed the course towards being an officer. but then, God made my stumbling block a stepping stone. in 2008, i had my first mass production of brochures. then, the invitation cards to commissioning parade. God sometimes place people who give you chances to make your wrongs right again. thank God for my deputy commander. For giving me the opportunity to change OCS and up the sophistication level. sometimes the repercussions of my decision to quit the officer course did hit me. when i saw my friends commission. when they went for the commissioning ball. then, a close friend of mine, who was the date of one of the officers’ told me that her date told her something which irked her. it wasnt what he said that irked her, it was him that irked her. his character and behaviour. I’m thankful God showed me that ranks and positions does not make you the better person. i thank God for being in my life.

its labour day tomorrow. unfortunately, for the peeps in india, the labourers arent at all unlaboured, because they don’t celebrate that. so, my dad has to work. my dad has been calling us via skype and i constantly make fun of him, what he eats and such. but i was watching Sanjiv singh Gourmet Asia (or something like that…) and found out indian food is really high in cholesterol. so, i’m looking for simple DIY recipes for my dad.
random- i’m going to watch ironman tomorrow. i did basically nothing at work today, other than cropping a few images and changing my desktop wallpaper (damn love my desktop wallpaper now). mummy wants to get chocolates tomorrow. YAY.
