Novelty Act 1: Excursion to Choa Chu Kang Cemetery

16th July 2011

The day I visited Choa Chu Kang Cemetery for the first time with Gibson & Ian. The objective of our excursion was to explore and understand the historical site. Our trip there was a memorable one for us as it allowed us to witness the differences between tombs of various beliefs.

I am a believer of preserving the past and when I read some of the words engraved on some tomb tablets, for a brief moment I felt that I actually have known that person. :)

Just for your interest, this link shows some of the Former Cemeteries in Singapore.

I intend to organise more novelty tours for my friends and I to experience and understand Singapore & the world better! So yes, more events to come! :D

In the late afternoon, I went to catch the final series of Harry Potter (and the Deathly Hallows Part II). Personally, it was pretty well-executed and probably the best out of the entire series.

For the past six and a half months, it has been bittersweet, full of adventure and lots of personal development for myself. I really thank God for giving me all these precious experiences.

Honouring Mr Lee Kuan Yew

23 Mar 2015: While getting ready for work, Nat told me that Mr Lee Kuan Yew has passed on. I didn't expect the multitude of sadness that followed. Found out that Prime Minister Mr Lee Hsien Loong would be addressing Singaporeans on his father's death at 8am and my heart went out to him. As I was watching his address, I am reminded that no matter who he is, he is still his father's son. When I see the profile and cover pictures of many of my friends changed into mono colours, I see unity and appreciation. By human standards perhaps we may debate about whether he is a good leader, but I believe he was called to serve with the others when Singapore really needed one. RIP Mr Lee Kuan Yew.

Stubbles + Dreadlocks = My Kinda Guy as at 21st Dec '09 I guess this statement is pretty true. It took me about 3-4 years to decide to tell him that I still love him... Telling him was just to let him know my feelings towards him... Months later we got together, it felt strange because I thought fate has departed from us. Destiny must have heard my cry and let me have a second go at this love. Unfortunately, now we're once again apart from each other. Sometimes I felt that I held on to the memories with him so tight because he was my first love. Many times I have thought myself to be a fool and felt that things have been a little unfair. He was my dream guy and I don't think I was ever his dream girl. After all, I was not his first love. Moreover, I don't have much to offer. Day after day, I watch memories play over my brain's eye, uncertain to feel remorseful or to tell myself to move on... Yeap, I know it has been a while now. God just help me. Pam Petite

A Fall

Dear Blog, I just had a fall while running in my flat-heeled office shoes. I didn't feel embarrassed dropping flat on the floor. Instead, I felt a growing pain from both my knees. My brain signaled for my legs to walk and soon I reached my destination with blood-crying knees. Why was I so careless? Was browsing through my past entries, time has passed and well, a lot more to improve on in my life. Occasionally, I wish to say, be contented. However, I can't. Because it simply is not good enough. I guess, that's what a twenty something should be contemplating. After all, only about a quarter of our lives is gone. Had been playing RISK board game with my honey on 2 consecutive Sundays. This game taught me a couple of lessons:- (a) Nobody is declared the winner unless the game ceases, by either party surrendering or by conquering the lands of your opponent; (b) Even if you are losing huge armies, it doesn't mean you are the loser; (small can fight big) (c) Take it easy! I...
