hullo. i'm blogging again (although i feel very incoherent.. beware! haha) and i think you should too.. hm.. haha..

anyway, i'm feeling a bit pensive now. zhi's gone shuttling off in a metal tube in the sky and for some reason or another that makes me feel a bit.. well.. mellow.

i can't help but feel (sometimes) that life is but a dream. i mean, everything's so ephemeral. so evanescent. everything's sort of passes you by and all that's left in its wake are rarefied and flimsy memories. what is life anyway? a thread of memories? i don't get how people can live for the present alone (who can even measure the present?). but living for the accumulation of memories just seems so.. strange. like for something so intangible, so incorporeal? hm i think i'm shooting off tangent again. but hm i guess life's only got meaning when measured against eternity. so there.

i think you guys should blog more.

anyway, before i go, can someone who's read hamlet educate me? what happened at the end of the banquet? daryl marc yeesen and i are all baffled. michelle, she's like that all the time so it doesn't matter. haha.

byebye.

ps: blog! haha..

YAY! My first post in the new blog! Wheeeee! To denise and nick: Thanks for fixing up the new blog! And thanks michelle for driving around like mad trying to find for my house to drop off something for me to eat! (Was it tiramisu?) Sorry u didnt find it and hope u didnt waste too much time...heh... Thanks for putting in the effort though! And thanks for all the birthday wishes and songs and what nots!

Anyway...its the holidays!!! Abt half of it is gone now and i still havent touched any work...sigh... I just havent had much time even though theres nothing to do... With the exception of monday when i slept only 4hrs, ive been sleeping from abt 11pm to 11am everyday! I dont think its very healthy...

OH i played DOTA for the first time on monday! Actually its the second time i think...but the first time i played, the single player battle thingy, i died before i could move very far so thats not counted... Yeah anyway, its quite fun (the one with teams)! Now i know why everyones so addicted! Even though i kept on getting killed it was pretty interesting! I like Furion! Wheee!

I just watched something on Asian Food Channel... im not eating sausages anymore....

since today's daryl's birthday (happy birthday goei!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), i think it's particulary apt to dedicate this blog to him. or actually maybe not. heh. for we don't want daryl to be the only person blogging, do we? but yeah. happy birthday goei=) you'll be the guest of honour for the inaugration of this blog. haha. (this means you should be blogging this, but nvm...)

i hope you guys will write here more often unlike in the blogdrive one. denise and i started a new one cuz we wanted a new template. but yeah. haha. so blog more, yeah? just write about anything. don't let this become a relic of an ossified past, but rather as a erm a.. oh, i don't know. i'm thinking of an analogy involving seasons. like how the seasons, though different, are not distinct. they aren't wholly separate and disparate. each are the result of their precedent and together they form a seamless whole. and they can only be understood and appreciated as a whole, not in isolation. they aren't short stories in a book, but chapters of a novella. yeah. i think i kinda lost my original line of thought.. hur hur. but haha nvm. the bottom line is: blog!

i shall be back tomorrow to complete the template of this blog. so yeah. bye then. it's getting late. and happy birthday goei! i would have written you a poem but i'm no ben hooi. haha. (notice my feeble attempt)

anyway. yeah. nite.
