Contentment

I've been very confused with life lately. Or more like have been making some important decisions which will affect my life and some are still "left behind" cause my brain simply cannot process anymore information.

From young, we were advised to strive for the best; to play tennis like Anna Kournikova, walk like Gisele Bundchen, sing like Christina Aguilera... So what is the best? How do you define best? Cause my best could differ from your best which differs from his & her best. Has it ever crossed your mind that no one can be the best at anything all the time? One could only be the best for some time. Cause at some point someone will overtake you. Going up the ladder must be fun but when you're at the top, it'll be a hard fall downwards.

So when is enough enough? Being content is on route to happiness so is it a sin to crave for a handbag or a nice ride or to dine in Michelin stars restaurants? If it's a sin does that mean we'll never improve since we're not trying harder? Or is it only human to want something we don't have?

How do we decide that we're content? Or that you could do better? Or you deserve more than you receive?

SIGH! Maybe I'm over thinking cause I'm mentally exhausted but my body refuses to sleep. Story of my life...

Sexy Singapore

I finally revisited Singapore after seven long years. Going back to the same country even though it's a different city is NOT acceptable to me and what more Singapore when it's teeny weeny? Maybe China could be an exception but definitely not Singapore. Like come on, there's 148 countries in this world, I'll much rather go to some far away or perhaps an exotic place than return to the same country.

But I'll definitely give credit to Singapore because this small island is not recognizable at all. A bit shocked though I didn't expect much less from Sg. As usual I played the tourist and visited the zoo, bird park, science centre, casino, Universal Studio; not to forget the drinking at Clarke Quay & shopping at Orchard Road. (:

Universal Studio

To me, Universal Studio is way over rated. Well I'm a little biased cause I do not go on roller coasters; heights and speed are a bad combination. Also, I was told tickets are often sold out and that I should book my tickets online which I very well did. And guess what?!? I woke up and it was RAINING! Since I wasn't allowed to cancel the bookings which was really unfair, the one hour walk costed me SGD70. I wouldn't recommend anyone to go cause it's very small compared to Disneyland & they have that silly non-refundable policy. Not impressed!

Looks like Sg is not such an efficient country after all :S

Isn't this just so cute?!? 

If I owned one of this I would already know how to fix everything in the house by now. But it's not mine so that explains! It looks like a good investment since the tools look useful & pretty and surely one day it will come in handy.

Anyway, tmr is the last day of Hungry Ghost Festival. It's a traditional Chinese occasion where joss sticks, incense and food are offered to the deceased. Hence, I'm going back to my hometown in Malacca later today for 2 days to pay my respect. 

P/S: I hope everyone enjoyed the Merdeka celebrations ytd. Well who wouldn't? Any reason for a public holiday! Our country is still progressing so well at 53 esp with the recent announcement of KLIA 2.
