Hey, Hw are u guys doing? This site is so very deserted... the last post was eons ago!I shdn't start whining on hw much i miss you guys and blah blah blah, otherwise this blog will turn into a 'i miss everybody page'.
I've been away to Indonesia on 2nd June to 28 June. The first 8 days were spent at Jakarta, I stayed w my dad and went ard visting relatives who reside there as well as friends. There's this friend of mine who I haven't met in 6 years! Luckily he didn't change much, if nt I wldn't have recognised him. The remaining days were spent at my hometown, Palembang, in which I just ate, slept, played and shopped for 18 days. Haha... I stayed w my maternal grandma who's very naggy (out of care and concern of course). The gd thing abt staying w my po po is that in the day time i get to play w my nieces and nephews, who are extremely adorable and super naughty. I've posted their pictures on friendster, u guys can go and see.
Ever since i came back, I've started wrking at holland village at this shop selling TShirts. The name of the shop is HV/0102 its across haagen daz and its behind the food court.
Natalia is back in Sg now. However, at this very moment she's in Jakarta cos her nanny passed away. SHe'll be back by this weekend.
We shall meet b4 the NUS gals start their sch term. CAn someone pls organise? My braincells are degenerating from selling Tshirts.
Cheers,

I've recieved this email frm a friend, and wanted to share this story with everyone... Its a story taken from one of the many chicken soup books. Here it goes...Hospital Window
Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end. They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation.
Every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.
The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.
The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.
As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.
One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by.Although the other man couldn't hear the band - he could see it. In his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.
Days and weeks passed.
One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone.
Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the real world outside.
He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed.
It faced a blank wall. The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window
The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.
She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."
Epilogue:There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations.
Cheers,

Hey stella, i gt pic of cute little kids too! haha... (i sound like a paedophile)that's my nephew, he's 19 months old and drives me crazy due to his hyperactiveness that can make me lose weight within a very short period of time, but he's cute too so i forgive him for that. Haha....
I've been bz with constant flow of incoming relatives who were in twn for the past 2 months. One comes followed by another once they leave another comes. And it happened for 2 months. My cousins brought their kids, and me being the very free "gu gu" had to baby sit. My another of set of cousins brought along their baby daughter (named: Maria Felicia Andreasin---->note the name my friends) who's 4 months old and his mother in law. She might have a very very similar name to mine (thks to my biao sao whose hobby is to copy cat every thing others have) i cant stand her when it comes to 2 am in the morning... She cries every 2am, and iits very loud, everybody will be awakened by her cries/screams and as a result i'll be sleeping in lecture the nxt morning. Sigh, but its over now. And I'm glad.
The nus kids are having holidays alrdy right? GO out leh... Ok, i'll let u knw my schedule:
Wrking on thurs, sat, sun till 24 dec(so nt free), 26 dec gt xmas lunch with my PEARLS friends and mentors. The rest of the time is free till any further notice, cos my bro and dad are in twn, so my mum wld most probably wanna have a family outing thingy again...
So that's all frm me nw, take care
Luv,
Potato
