Swing Out Sister


This duo of Corrine Drewery & Andy Connell is such a legend! I remember back in the 80s when I was still in primary school, I saw their video clip for "Where in the world?" I was so mesmerised! Growing up, lots of music hopped in my ears. I can remember Gun's n Roses was one of it. But still I never forget about SOS. Until one day in my high shcool I met a friend whom actually had SOS CD. It was such a great discovery for me. Then I started buying their CDs dated from the 80s & 90s. Later I found out that they are actually still exist and productive. Pity they only sell their latest album in US, UK and Japan, then Amazon.com came to my rescue.What made me so attached to SOS, I cannot really explain. Somehow there is this vibrant energy and comfort and deja vu and lots of other mixed feelings that I cannot find the right words for them. I've gone through bad breakups in life and SOS has been giving me a sweet feeling. Whenever I'm in a bad mood, I always rush home and play them for comfort. I guess you should listen to them yourself and will understand what I meant. http://www.swingoutsister.com/

joyeux anniversaire

The day I turn 28, Thank God it is not judgment day just yet. 7.30 am says my cell phone when it rings for the early wish from a good friend. 30 minutes pass midnight I did get a call from a closed friend, woke me up with her cheerful awaked scream. Still can hear the birds chipping away outside my room, the sun is still friendly and the weather still moist from the rain last night. My mood is calm with no frantic childlike mind enthusiastically awaits what the day hold for her. Do not get me wrong! I am truly thankful for today, I am just happy in a different level at this age. Maybe it is what they called "maturity". Though I still think there is that little bullying brat inside me somewhere, which occasionally comes out when I am being such a bi(a)tch! Lol ;p
Here I am 28 years old no less, ready for what life holds for me! Happy Birthday to me!!

Luck or Miracle?

CROSS! In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen!

Was driving happily along the fast lane last night. The street was near to empty. People were breaking their fast. Suddenly this car from the slow lane moving in to the fast lane overtaking the car in front of him almost making a 90° angle and about to block my lane. I told myself surely the car would not stupidly enough in keep on moving and not waiting for me to pass by first. Then I stepped on the pedal and increase the speed. Turned out that the driver was not even looking at his right direction and keep on moving and over taking the car in front of him, whom also changing from slow to fast lane.


In the split second state of shock my brain told me, even though I brake I would hit that stupid car. If I change into the other right lane (which is the fastest lane) chances were a car would then hit me. In that nick of a time I just couldn’t look at my right mirror. I banged my steering wheel to the right and quickly turned it to the left again after passing the stupid car. I could almost imagine and feel a car from behind crashing my window and destroying me.

After none of the above happened I just completely stopped the car with my legs and hands shaking hard in the middle of the road. The stupid car eventually over took me from the right and wave the "oops I’m Sorry sign". Oops my ass!
Luckily or is it more miraculously there were no cars behind us. I repeatedly made a cross sign. I believe it was a miracle. God still think I’m worth to be kept alive in order to good in this life. So I could pass this on to people, touch their heart and try to give meaning in their life in anyway I can.
