Dip show flashback...

Edmund handed me this picture the other day... one of pic from the photo stack which Jackson had kept and left in the office. Brings back memories... That was during our dip show back in 1997. I didn't even remember taking this photo with him... then again, I do remember back then ah bui was the one always snapping away with his aunt's camera...so not so surprised that he had those photos, which he didn't share AGAIN!

Anyway, those of you who wants your copy/copies of photos taken with or by jackson, go collect them from Edmund.

10% luck, 90% hardwork

2 lucky bastard became millionaires at 7pm today.... to be exact S$1,479,104 each.

And its not me...

Not surprised...cos I'm never the lucky type... most of my life is hard work, hard work and more hard work... so I always get the sense of satisfaction when I get things done or receive my fair share of reward - that's how I always console myself.

Getting more and more busy nowadays... had to worked on weekends and been leaving office only at the midnight hour... only on the excuse that i din drive and had to catch the last train. Even at this hour (it reads 2am on my clock), i'm waiting to collect samples from Khim... thus a bit of time to blog. I'm keeping a positive mind that all these suffering will reward me someday, dunno when, but that day will come.... got to hang on... it's a path I chose, and I believe I can do it. That's my religion...hahaha...

Looking forward to Monday's TOTO... how much am I betting on it? My 10% luck, of cos....

BBQ @ Jason's in-laws place

This was last week... Yup, yet another successful gathering organised by Jason & Merissa. This time was a BBQ Merissa's parents' place... They were house-sitting and conveniently use the place for the event. I reckon it's Jason's idea - not his place and still have a maid to do the prep and clean ups... typical of him...haha..

I was there late cos I was at SGH visiting my godma - who's doing fine. Anyway, I was still able to catch everyone when I reached. The response for this round was good... mostly managed to turn up. Too bad for Jianyuan & Elisa who had to attend a wedding dinner, and Leo & Grace who went over to Beijing. Anyway, Leonard & Grace were never really committed to join the group... not a big lost... haa.... Was suprised to see one unusual member - Eugene Seah... Haven't seen him since, hmmm... the days in Singapore Poly...?? I think so... That's like 15 years ago?! Though I'd heard some news about him over the past few years - he's doing well with his family biz, staying the same EC as Leo & Grace at The Eden, and have biz dealings with Christopher and Kwan Wei. There was a bit of awkwardness when we acknowledged each other... and I didn't really have much to chat with him... That typical 'lost-of-words' manner of mine surfaced once again... plus my DEFAULT unfriendly look wasn't helping the situation. Maybe we haven't really warmed up after all those years... Well, don't get me wrong - he's a nice person, I must say, just that we're weren't really THAT close since the beginning, though we were classmates, band-mates, poly-mates and he's staying so close to Leonard. Anyway, he got to leave early, so I guess we'll have to leave the catching up till god knows when again.

Thanks to Chris that we get some pictures to keep on this gathering... I guess as we grow older, we tend to appreciate the time spent with our good old friends even more. .. and it will always put a smile in all of us whenever we look back at these moments. A BIG THANK YOU to the organisers, J&M, and Chris as the camera-man.
