Dreaming (still) ...

Had a fun full day yesterday. Morning had MC meeting. I was supposed to bring the presents we had bought for the four birthday babes to the meeting at pearlyn house but i had forgotten to bring... Nonetheless i had thought of getting a cake for the birthday babes since it was so rare all four of them were present so pearlyn went with sab to get it, while i tried to hold the rest of the MC down, by suggesting we learn the dance steps from the ogl. Actually I quite enjoyed the dances, especially the love in the first degree. Think the music roxx. And i enjoyed david dances, ahahahaha...We then went for lunch at hougang mall and went to hougang plaza K-Box to sing ktv all the way till 8 plus.

Me and Gillian then rushed over to tampines to try to catch windstruck. Had promised her a movie treat for quite sometime liao. We were just in time, after getting the popcorn and drink, when we sat down, the movie just started. So lucky. Anyway don't really like korean love story, coz i think too sad liao. The ending always he die or she died or both die one, unlike jap shows, where the ending is always perfect and nice and all of us are happy... Windstruck, as expected, turn from a comedy love story to a tragic love story when the male character died, and the women thought she had killed him. (It is dubious, this part. Maybe those who had watched liao can help me analyse...) As expected, she couldn't find the will to live and kept trying to kill herself, although it was quite funny how she was saved everytime. Till she realised that her bf spirit might be around, but in the form of wind... And so on, till she finally got to meet her bf on the 49th day of his death (according to buddhist teachings, any consciousness can only survive for 49, heehee). Anyway think it was a pretty good movie for couples to watch. The story was touching and nice but the ending sort of spoil the story... After which, we stayed at Mac and in the end, i was glad that i could still catch the last bus home, at 12 plus...

Had a shocking conversation with someone just now, who told me his predicaments. Somehow we drifted away and the topic was changed to another person and then he told me about his unpleasant encounter with this person. As usual, i will try to think in a positive manner and try to diminish the problem and finding reasons for the 'wrong' behaviour. However, after sometime, i realise that the problem involves other people, including me. Then I got very disgusted with this wrong person and all my good will for this person disappeared. I guess that is just us humans, to behave in such a manner. It is always different when things are happening to yourself. Like why do we like listening to sad songs or watching sad movies? Because we are not what the song or movie describe. Think about it, do we really want what the sad songs or movies describe to happen to us?

I don't exactly like it when people tell me that i'm stubborn (I mean who will like it???) but I don't hate it either. Afterall everyone is free to express their opinions. Anyway I'm writing about this because Capricorns are said to be stubborn and a certain shifu from Hai Yin has told me i'm a bit stubborn, when he try to analysis my birth dates quite sometime ago... Yesterday, after badminton in school with my classmates, we went to clementi interchange to collect the stuffs from the malaysian delivery man (hee, guess what we had bought over there!) and after which went to the hawker centre to eat. Sat near where me, pearlyn and weiyang sat the other other time. And of course, the drink stall lady came to pester us. This time however, I was craving for something cold to drink and thus I ordered from her. Anyway what happen the other time, think it was a week ago, was that she kept insisting that we should buy something from her stall, coz we are using her table. I was really quite irk at that time and almost suggested shifting to another table, even though all our food were already on our table liao. However, weiyang finaly give in to her request and ordered something. Pearlyn then brought out this fact that capricorns were stubborn. Both me and pearlyn are capricorns and after reflecting, this might be true afterall, haha... Anyway to clarify, I did not want to buy a drink because they do not sell 仙草. I wanted to drink 仙草 at that time. After the lady was gone, i immediately went to get 仙草 to drink. Don't think this is call stubborn, just, hmmm, nothing wrong mah, haa...

Anyway the week that had just pass was quite a bad week for me in terms of my IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) occurence. Think almost everyday have... I have observe some interesting stuffs about my IBS, from 10 plus years of experiencing it (maybe not so interesting to others...)

- I sometimes can feel it coming the previous night...
- I use to think that if i wake up very early, it will occur, but apparently this week incidents tell otherwise.
- Usually stress related, like exams period, or maybe because it is during these periods my IBS occurence will be more noticeable, coz it might coz me to be late etc...
- If IBS was to occur that day, it will always take place 1 plus hours after I had woke up/had my first meal, meaning I will have to find a toilet within this period of time, else that's it...
- Will stop after 2 - 3 visits to the toilet. Usually not more than 3 hours after I had woke up/had my first meal. Otherwise it is not IBS, but means that I have diarrhoea liao, and i would be eating lomotil...
- I notice that almost certainly if I feel really cold during the night, I would have IBS the next day. You know sometimes you felt warm initially when u sleep but then the night got colder but you are too lazy to switch off the fan etc... Proof of this is during the 10 days Sayalay's retreat at Shuang Lin Monastery. I had cramps every morning till I got smarter and went to have some warm water the first thing in the morning... Think i cannot let my stomach be cold... Look at the 2nd point. Maybe that's also why I had thought that waking up early will cause IBS, because it is cold during early morning...
- triggered by some food? not very sure about that but personally think that this should be true...

Anyway, not even sure that I have IBS, haha... I had checked up this website and according to the Manning symptoms, http://www.angelfire.com/il/ibshelp/, i have 5 out of the 6 listed. The more symptoms you have, the more likely it is to be IBS. It is not a disease or illness and I don't think it can be cured, though some sites says that you should avoid some food. To me it is just bad karma... Anyway I think most people don't understand the inconvenience and the ordeal i have to go through though... To quote from the site - 'Unfortunately, to some doctors, IBS is not considered a "true" disease, but rather an unimportant minor condition (when in reality it is hardly all that "minor" to those who have to deal with it), and therefore may not be given the medical attention it deserves'. I agree, it is always very stressful to me to bear the pain and always having to find toilet, especially if I rushing for appointments or i'm outside. At home it is not so bad and I don;t really mind, but it is really inconvenient for me when i'm outside and IBS occur...

但愿人长久

明月几时有? 把酒问青天
不知天上宫 今夕是何年?

我欲乘风归去 唯恐琼楼玉宇
高处不胜寒 起舞弄清影 何似在人间?

转朱阁低绮户照无眠
不应有恨何事长向别时圆?

人有悲欢离合 月有阴晴圆缺
此事古难全 但愿人长久 千里共婵娟


以上是但愿人长久的歌词，由王菲所唱的。 演唱会已过了很久， 我想趁现在我还能记得她唱了什么歌时把它写下来，来纪念这第一次的王菲演唱会（不过好贵啊。。。）

广东歌有：
约定
暗涌
爱与痛的边缘
梦中人
如风
给自己的情书
冷战

华语歌有：
只愿为你守着约
我愿意
天空（掀开序幕的歌。。。）
天使
但愿人长久
假如我是真的
闷
人间（压轴好歌）
红豆
开到荼蘼
当时的月亮
只爱陌生人
精彩
新房客
香奈儿
你喜欢不如我喜欢
光之翼
流浪的红舞鞋
将爱
阳宝

还有一些别人唱的歌。虽然这样看很多歌（这里就有26首了, 再加我遗漏的）， 但其实不过两个小时再多一点罢了。可能是因为一些歌是组曲的关系吧。。。

对了，最近好多人生病啊。。。 好好照顾你们的身体。希望文炎，杨洋，还有所有在病的人赶快康复！

Happy Vesak Day! May everyone be well and happy!

Had a pretty hectic week so far. Tuesday and wednesday needless to say. Had set up stall at PKS. This time only a few cats stayed overnight to help with the stall, thus not as fun...

Had a great time at the concert though, by Faye Wong. When me and pearlyn reached there, we were most surprised to see Zisheng, Yeeling and Ruiting sitting right in front of us. What a coincidence! The probability must have been damn low... Anyway Faye sings really well, especially towards the end, and she did not seem that icy afterwards, having some interactions with the audience. Towards the end, after a series of cantonese songs, she started talking in cantonese to us, forgetting that she should have spoken in mandarin! Anyway she refused to give an encore despite the emotional calls from her fans, which i thought was quite bad of her, but quite characteristic of her too! Anyway was quite disappoint she din sing passenger...

Thursday i almos tspend the whole day sleeping away. Yes, had a lot of naps here and there. Guess we are not getting young. 1 night didn't sleep had quite a lot of impact on us...

Friday! Went to JB with my present classmates. All guys actually. Went to get some dvds, vcds, games etc... Went to weisheng house too. Quite fun I would say... Especially smuggling out the chewing gums. One of our frens - long, refuse to help us split the load to carry out, and he was the only one told to emptied out his pockets contents! haha... So lucky of us...

Just had lunch with a pretty lady just now. She was a dancer for BS Day 2 years ago and needed me to stamp her CCA card. Anyway had a pretty nice chat with her. Found out that she is Pearlyn senior! Wah...
