KL Sentral, Malaysia. Walked off the bus (upon returning from Sabah), realized I didn't have my phone, went back up to my seats (I was sitting in front). And it's gone, in 30 secs. The thief must have picked it up and walked right past me. >:-(

It lingers on...

The worry lingers on...

20th November 2009, Bangkok.
Club Slim @ RCA.

Ugh... I'm feeling much better, but it lingers on. I hate it.
I wish time would pass faster.

Packing my bags - Kota Kinabalu and Tawau in a few hours.

What ifs

Very few people will know how I felt on the night of 20th November 2009 in Bangkok.
Or so I hope - they will not have to feel what I have felt.
To the extend that I even consider praying knowing that it will be useless anyway.
To the extend that I want to cry, and knowing even dropping a tear will be useless as well.

I don't know how to describe the feeling...
It's like, millions of what ifs, one leading to another.
Life, death, family, money, friendship, all melted into that one single moment.
What if...
Again, I don't know how to describe the feeling... nor will I attempt to.

I guess - like I always tell myself - Life goes on.
Wrong place, wrong time. That's all there is to it...

I will write a post on what happened end of February...

19 November, 2009

Bangkok, again?

Yup! Leaving for the airport in a couple of hours.
Going to be meeting A (NZ), T (Jpn) there.
I know I have not been writing anything interesting recently - and I cannot promise I will.
But I know my stalkers will keep coming back anyways, just because I'm so awesome.
Will post more pics too. People seem to love pictures. More than what I have to say.

Realization

* I haven't played footsie with anyone a long time.
* I haven't tickled anyone for a long time.
* I haven't held anyone's hand for a long time.
* I haven't genuinely smiled for a long time.
* I haven't ever had chocolates that tastes.... orgasmic.

18/4

PS: "a long time" is subjective, of course ;-)

14 November, 2009

Yay!

12 out of 16/4 instead of 24/7 :-$

Need to go do some shopping... Coke, Apple juice. Mixers for the drinks tonight ;-)
Made appointment for haircut on Sunday @1300; no, not for me.
(I don't have anymore hair to cut (not yet anyways))

Hopefully we'll take lots of pics, eat lotsa food, and talk a lot.
Years and years to catch up on, or so it feels like that to me.

It's gonna be a fun weekend. At least I hope so :-)

Happy Black Friday

I do not believe - 13 or 4, bad luck, and all those irrational things, but there are people out there who do: http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/3056409/Friday-the-13th-phobia-no-joke

For me, I can use Black Fridays as an excuse to party? Maybe?

Friday the 13th phobia no joke
By MICHELLE DUFF - Manawatu Standard

Afraid of being afflicted by a bout of paraskevidekatriaphobia?

Then it's probably best you stay in bed tomorrow, to avoid being struck down with the irrational fear of Friday the 13th.

Though it sounds like a joke, the phobia is documented – with symptoms from mild anxiety to full-blown panic attacks, according to the Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute in Asheville, North Carolina.

But at Massey University, academics weren't planning on shutting their cats indoors or wrestling the ladder off the caretaker just yet.

Senior lecturer in clinical psychology, Joanne Taylor said she was yet to meet anyone who suffered from a fear of Friday the 13th.

Though there were "hundreds of thousands" of documented phobias, many were more likely to be strong fears rather than full-blown phobias, Dr Taylor said. "A phobia is something quite severe, it is a fear that is really out of proportion to the danger of the situation."

Real phobias were so strong they interrupted everyday life. For example a person who is scared of driving because of an accident might take another route miles out of their way to avoid the scene.

Common phobias included fears of driving, flying, water or drowning, being in a crowd or stuck in a small space, she said. Younger children often had phobias of animals or the dark.

And it was unlikely a fear of Friday the 13th would cause a major problem for a sufferer – given that this year, they would have only three days to avoid, she said.

At Victoria University, senior psychology lecturer and superstition researcher Marc Wilson said a recent survey he conducted of more than 6000 New Zealanders suggested that about 10 per cent believed the number 13 was related to luck.

Pakeha were less likely to select the No13 for Lotto than other ethnic groups.

Though research has suggested women are more likely to die in car accidents on Friday the 13th, it is the subject of contention.

Critics say that has nothing to do with people actually being unluckier, but rather that people worry more about bad things happening and make anxiety-influenced bad decisions.

Whether residents of Palmerston North will buy into the ancient superstition is hard to predict.

But an archaic council bylaw which banned No13 from being used on mailboxes was recently overturned, suggesting the city is not as superstitious as it used to be.

Love you :-)

Thanks for standing by me, eventhough you're not around.
Thanks for being harsh, when you need to.

I'm sure all is well, and all will get even better.
I've been a little lost, but it'll get better too I'm sure.

We get into silly arguments and
We don't talk as much... and I may still annoy you as usual

But you know I love you.

Another year, another candle.
Have a good one.

Found this while thinking about where to bring a friend who is coming to KL.
Thought it might be useful for other people, so I am reposting this :-)

Guy Fawkes Day

No. There was no celebration. Not in Malaysia anyways.

That was yesterday - today - I'm off to Australia (leaving in 2 hours).

Kindda excited about it because I can catch up with a few people I met during my trip to Vietnam, friend's from Japan, etc.

But... I'm more excited about getting back to KL now, next week will be a good week, before I head off to Thailand. No, my life is not finally getting itself together, but I can somewhat see a bigger picture suddenly. I have something to work towards to - for now.

Have a good weekend people :-)



(As promised in the last post - Halloween 2009 @Singapore, more pictures will come soon on Facebook)

No, that's not colour contacts to make my eyes look white, the picture just came out that way. I declare these the best costumes for the night - The Pope, and Jesus Christ. In between them, me - Yahweh. :-p
