Pam's Blog (Life, Marriage & Parenting)

Hi all, I've been feeling out of sorts. Anyways, I've been reading the San Francisco guide book. Seems like I will have many places to visit in the city! :) I'm trying to prepare myself financially & mentally. Hope it all goes well. Love, Pam

Hey guys, Have you watched the movie,"Inglorious Bastards"? It's one of my favourite movie of this year thus far.  Hilarious & a complete fairy-tale about ending the Nazi era. Also, I have a sketching in progress, do check out @: sketchypam Anyways, I'm going to have a busy week. Take care all. xo, Pam

Movies I've Been Watching At Home Lately It's about love, life & luxury. How about you? What have you been up to? Love, Pam

Here I am, partially daydreaming about visiting Paris while working. I must admit I'm a semi-workaholic. Been looking forward to my french class opening at the end of October. I've always been interested in languages. Currently, I'm trying to improve both my Mandarin & Cantonese; which are also subjects I'm enthusiastic about. ~ These days I've been feeling more calm. Seems like time has really helped me to get on with life. Saw this quote on Twitter: "Love sought is good, but given unsought is better." - William Shakespeare Somehow this quote puts my mind a little at ease. A huge part of me likes to do a little something when I meet someone I adore. So now, I'm taking the back seat. Well, if it is of your interest at all, I'm at the stage where I just take things easy. ~ I wish him the best. I do not wish to know that much. For a truth-seeker like me, it's pretty rare for me to let go. But as life experiences have taught me, much time has ...

I have always wanted to be all of my good friends' best possible friend.  The one whom you can buzz at 3 in the morning, the one who always remembers all your birthdays, the one who understands what you're going through in your life, the one who will always be by your side...   Unfortunately, I'm not a perfect person (classic).  And because I would say I am a prideful individual too, I won't deny that I always thought I'm one of the greatest friend a person can have if I hold a high regard for another individual.  As I have said, I always thought I treated all my good friends right, however, in recent times, I discovered a few flaws about myself and I was reminded by a good friend of mine.  Thank you! Basically, I am in the process of discovery about myself and the people around me.  Attempting the "less is more".   A leopard never change its spots.  Let me be the exception because I genuinely want to be a better Pam. xo, Pam

* i realised that my guy friends can articulate absolutely well about their favourite movies that it really blows your mind. * i don't think i'm a good movie storyteller - basically i summarise the plot in a nutshell & what i like about the movie. * do guys actually have a better memory? or does everybody selectively choose to remember certain things?

7 years later, he called. Her answering machine automatically answered the call after a few rings.   “Hey Vanessa, this is Carl… Um, how have you been? Please call me back?” He released a breath, not knowing what to add. Exhilaration mixed with a deep sense of unpredictability, he continued.   “I miss you.   Are you in London now?”   “Hello? Who is this?” answered an unfamiliar male voice.   “I’m Carl.   Is Vanessa in?” he replied. “Sorry, Vanessa has moved out.” “Do you know where she is?” “The last I heard she was at Nyhavn, Copenhagen.   Living in one of those colourful houses” he paused for a mere second, “This is Javier by the way, I’m Vanessa’s friend.”   “Hi Javier, can I have her contact please?” “I’m sorry, she has informed me not to disclose her contacts.” “YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND JAV! I have something urgent for her.” “Sorry dude, I really can’t disclose.   By the way Carl, she left a week ago and she told me that she has been waiting on a guy for more than hal...
