Been looking forward to my Frankfurt - New York last week. For the italian pasta joint, the Florena hand cream i gotta top up, the Longchamp bag errand, the yogurt, the Giottos Chocolate from Penny's and even the Mariott's room. And of course, just to be on the streets of New York. It's been half a year since the last.
And again, didn't achieve much except shopping despite the company i had. Everything happened at whirlwind speed. Thankfully, someone gave me a surprise by swappaing to do my flight with me, to make this long 4 sectors so much bearable. Thanks again sister.
Ah~ Finally. Allow me to introduce: Our favourite joint in Frankfurt. Caught the men in action.
Our "Robbie Williams" didn't forget to pose for the camera despite being busy producing 50 pizzas for delivery.
With the babes at Times Square, New York. A discovery i made: Every 20 blocks in New York is a mile. We walked from 57th street to 34th and back. That makes more than 2 miles on foot >.<"
As a prove, the trip to the NBA shop at 55th street in search of my task item.
Completely zonked when i got back to SG cos my body clock got totally messed up after crossing so many time zones. Though i had the whole weekend, i was sleeping most of the time.
*************
Gonna missed the Halloween party this Sat, but for a good cause. Off to Tokyo (or rather Narita) !
Finally after a year.
Hope it'll be a good one.

Should i change away my Taipei-LAX for Tokyo-LAX instead?
Now that travel plans were more or less finalize to go Japan, and i could recree Tokyo first =P ... And a more duh~ reason will be to see Hilton Shinkjuku before we move out, very soon......
Storms clouds were starting to form and the sweet scent of imminent rain in the cooling breeze were such a delight. I halted, closed my eyes, spread my arms a little and allowed the the wind to tousle my hair, enjoying the very moment.
For a very long time, i haven't enjoyed beng alone, to marvel at the beauty of the simplicity of life and being at peace with myself.
And because, the conversation the night before was so thought provoking, for a split second, i did wonder if it would be nice to have someone else standing beside me rejoycing the same special moment.

"你还可以玩多几年?"
That cuts. But I haven't got any answers.
I love my man, but i love my freedom more. For now.
About 2 months ago, "Fucker" and "Fuckee" were 1 of the new terms that expanded my dictionary and horizons on the gay community.
Today i learnt another new term in the field of relationships, i.e. booking.
To elaborate, here's just a simple analogy. Imagine in a crowded theme park full of players, all looking around for interesting rides. As you have been on one comfortable ride, long enough, it gets boring. It's an itching tendency to want to move on to other rides looking for more thrills. Yet, having to leave the current ride means giving up your place and having to go through all the hassle of queuing for another. So it's a tie between leaving to look for new excitements or stay. Wouldn't it be great if you could leave something behind to "book" a place to ensure that you could return, beating the rest in the queue? To hint that, if you could have the privilege that the ride will always have its doors open for ya.
In case i am confusing you, i am talking about "placing a booking" on your ex.
Doesn't that sounds like the best fall back plan? But who like to be the receiver, the cushion? Taking in all that shit? Ideal, it is for the deliverer, but extremely selfish.
As much as we are going through the same phase, I can't help but disagree with what my gf is subtly doing. 一点都不漂亮.
But who am i to lament? Well, the best i could do is to fuss 'bout it here. ~Enuf said.
********************** A friend sent me this. For you and me, and specially to Bro.
I believe for men and women alike, there will be this someone who has set a standard, and we somehow unconsciously use the past as a yardstick for future reference/comparisons for partners.
Was shocked after watching 881 a month or 2 back, to learn that SY's friend of our age passed away within a short period of time due to late stage cancer. I was sympathetic, and secretly crossed my fingers that such tragedy won't happen to me or any friends of mine.
It must be beyond words, to watch someone you know, care or love waste away....
And now. Having to go through chemothreapy for a Stage 3 Hodgkin's Lymphoma and worse, having to deal with emotional ordeals, for herself and family, i wonder how she still remains so jovial and still assures me that all the chemo and biopsy aren't as painful as it is always depicted in the media. She is exactly the last person i would expect this to happen to her. Lean, tan, hyper active, always on the go, always exercising, very out-going and so young.
I believed the following months ahead are going to be tedious for her, as the treatments may drag up to half a year to thoroughly eradicate all the cancerous cells. I know the girl is strong, she will hang in there. Although she has my sympathies, i doubt if i could truly understand what is going on within her. I wouldn't know how to handle it if.....
Somehow life already has plans for us.
"It is not that i want to nag... But pls just do what you want to do now.... Contribute back to the society... Treasure all your family and friends. Love the person you want to the max" Coming from her.
