MAYbe, MAYbe not

it's a trap. busy-ness is self-inflicted, and mundane-ness is a choice. having a fulfilling life is not the same as having a filled life.

the month of may came and went. the past weeks passed in a flurry, as usual. mummy left and came back and i think she's accomplished a lot more than me while i was too busy being busy. i got used to my job, settled into the routine of being out from day to night (and being late for work everyday), rushing around everywhere, tiring myself out, and then suffer from lack of sleep. and then i ask, what on earth am i doing?

some time, some how, you've got to get a grip on your own life. you can't let activities take charge and dictate the flow of life. it's meaningless. in fact, after all the hectic-ness, i don't seem to even remember what was it i've done, and for what.

the last public holiday of the season passed yesterday. it was vesak day. and the day that adrian and carolyn (finally) got married. super awkward day, but it was quite enjoyable overall i guess. weddings are beautiful affairs, or meant to be. stan wanted to use the BC/AD thing for emcee-ing, but i told him that it would be more appropriate for me. haha. owellz, it was the wrong crowd for him to unleash his wit on anyway... haiz, missed the opportunity to catch up again, tho he did try to rescue me a few times from my table of more mature adults, most of whom i've never met in my life. (eh i wanted to take a pic but u left so fast- to track the weight thing you know...)

just like that, friday came and went as well. i think singaporeans can no longer live sans their phones, without feeling uncomfortable. my phone chose to die on me even before i got to work today (but after i woke up, thank God- no alarm otherwise!). i was quite anxious the whole time, waiting for kenneth to bring a nokia charger for me (which turned out to be a wrong one anyway...). but alas, when i finally recharged it at night, there were only 4 msges. i should have know that i wasn't that impt! what was i thinking...?

ok actually the only reason why i mentioned kenneth is cos i wanted to introduce the next picture, us at work. this is ken's desk, which he shares with camy. the size of that cubicle is slightly bigger than the one yaosheng and i used to share due the the absence of some annoying cupboards under the table. BUT, things have taken a turn for the better for us. Come monday, we get to shift to a room! wow! with a view and all, i think... (didn't get down to drawing the blinds today so i dunno where its facing yet, but it's a corner room so there are 2 windows!) well, we still have to share it, but at least we dun have to squeeze into 1 puny cubicle anymore... and when im gone, he'll have the whole room to himself. like some towkay! haha.

ok anyway after rambling so much, here's the pic (it was friday, so we're all rather casually dressed)
