wedding dance video fever

did you guys watch the latest youtube video, on the wedding dance? this american couple made an entrance with a mass dance of their friends and family, to the chris brown's song 'forever'. it is so damn very cool, totally how a wedding should be - a celebration! beats my idea of having an ideal wedding onboard an airplane anytime! family, friends and wedding couple all enjoying themselves thoroughly, all very sporting and enthusiastic, awesome!

watch the video here!

the time traveller's wife by audrey niffenegger



it is an awesome read. to me, it wasn't the compelling kind, where you'll want to read page after page. but the kind where you'd want to slowly devour each word and taste every feeling the words give you. it is intense, it is moving, it is an unusual love story which is totally unrealistic, but totally relatable to.



A MUST-READ!



"It’s dark now and I am very tired. I love you, always. Time is nothing." - in henry's last letter to clare
the festival is officially over. just took a day off yesterday but still feeling burnt out. in fact i feel worse than during the hurricane of the festival. now it's like down to ground zero. i'm feeling jaded, burnt out and tired, from working life. i'm rather miffed at myself, i have been working for a full year now already, since graduation. and i'm already feeling the brunt of working life, especially disillusioned. i wonder how the older folks made it through years and years of the corporate life. only 1 year and i feel like i cannot take it anymore...!

i can't wait for the contract to end, honestly. it's not so much of the job scope or management that i'm annoyed at (maybe abit), just the nature of working life. i even feel like ending early, knowing that one colleague is tendering and another ending her contract early too. the captivity of negativity! i don't want to work leh, i don't know how to resolve this also, goddamnit la! argh.

when can i find a job i feel satisfaction in...or maybe, how & when can't i not work...?

as we progress into the next stages of life, we learn that we've to learn many other things school did not teach us. we make mistakes and continue the learning curve - i always think mistakes teach us something, so think on the brighter side - every mistake add experience to our lives.

i also learn to manage people, to massage their egos and to be all ears, less mouth. i guess there's a reason why we have 2 ears and a mouth - perhaps to listen/hear more, talk less - we should listen 2x more than what we say, so talk less.

when engaging in the grapevine, try to talk less. and that case, you learn more.

just a glimpse of carine's wedding...14 june 2009

Their big day, shared by hundreds
Their hands, linked by their bond
Their life, from now to ever.


choosing the gowns...
in the morning at the bride's place...
at the solemnisation ceremony...



during the dinner...

many more on facebook to come! had a fun time being one of the jiemeis for the first time.
really really happy for carine, my first girlfriend to get hitched. i'm looking forward to seeing the little one very soon! :)

i guess the lack of entries explains how busy i am! singapore heritagefest'09 is coming in a blink of an eye, so we're really swamped at work! what's probably worth mentioning are the free concerts at vivocity in july - there will be local bands like jack & rai, so keep your eyes peeled!

other than that, i'll also be attending 2 weddings soon, a church reception this saturday and carine's one in june (as you all should already know). this is really making me feel old! and the next phase of life begins...

still managed to squeeze some time in for the tangs private sale with kenneth today, so happy! at least we got something done. on another note, i will have tonnes to do at work, many office late nights, and 'freeze-leave' but i shall take joy in it! after all, you are your only worst enemy :)

whatever life brings you, try to make the best out of it, i guess. better a positive outlook on life than no life to look out upon (this is cheesy). this philosophical mood is getting a tad ott :P
