Well, Just finished watching this movie.Initially when the movie was screening on big screen, I thought it was another show like the deep impact. Focusing on the impact of destruction of earth due to outside forces. But I was wronged. It was about global warming. It is about us the so called mankind destorying the natural habitat and it was us who had caused the ice bergs at the artic to melt. WE are just subconsciously and perharps unintentionally in process of digging our own grave. =P Conincidently, i watch it after the asian tsunamis which have claimed thousands of lives. People running away from the big killer waves and other images. Guess it is her action of revolution or oppositions to all our wrongdoings, for creating the imbalance of the entire ecosystem. I have always being feeling guitly over the way waste paper and stuff. But all these were only thought but no actions to accompany my guilt. =P maybe I should start working on something so that i can at least do something to slow down the process and hopefully things will get better in future.

Yup, today is christmas eve. However, this year is a bit different from the past coz I am at home. away from the crowds, no mass and no friends. Decided to have a quiet Christmas Eve. Take a time off to sit back and reflect on what i have accomplished this year. Shouldn't I be doing that on new year eve. Nope, I usually think of my new year resolution on christmas eve.
Year 2004
# Make a career switch and currently taking the course. - Although I hate to leave my comfort zone and has to start all over again.
# YeaH ,,passed all my exams for these two sems,,,, still have two more sems to go. Keep going.
# Finally, i remember to send out the christmas card and gifts to my sponsor child after three years of sponsoring him. I have always felt guilty about that. It seems like i was only trying to supply the money and dun want to have any emotional attachment with him. I know this is bad but i try to improve and at least i managed to do that this year. Hopefully, more to come years ahead.
# whenever i was out on clinical attachments, the priorities were always to learn as much as possible and to provide the patient care for the patients. They also served as a reminder for me not to take my loved ones for granted coz life is unpredictable. No one knows what will happen tomorrow or the next minute. RIGHT!!
# another achievments for the year was my expedition to Mount Kinabalu. Standing at the summit really makes u feel that u are at the top of the world. Must thanks my "godfather" without him i won't be able to make it up. I still miss the stars.
# I have make many new friends. My 15 new buddies in school. We have grown from strangers to good friends where we encouraged one another to move on and pull through the course together. N other friends whom we have shared many special moments in our lives. "Fun"
# Regrets. Again. I have to give up music due to financial problem and no time as school's load was pretty heavy. Music is my first love. Although I was not exceptionally good or talented in this area, it really hurt me to give this up. Giving up guitar is like giving my piano several years ago. Really hate that feeling. I remembered the other time after my piano incident, I told myself i won't do that again. Guess i did not keep the promise this time round. At least I still practising the two instruments. Music is still part of my life. Hope things will get better next year.
# I neglect my grand ma again. Why do i always forgot to spare some time to pay her a visit. She is so near yet i failed to do that. How sad right. =P
# Glad to see some of my good friends got hitched. Ed & Fook, Pat, SJ, HM & HL, HJ...
best Wishes to them.
Looks like nothing much. but not too bad lah. At least something is accomplished. Well, time to look into volunteer work ..

Finally, after three days of hardwork, all three rooms were painted. Well, at least i had endured the muscles pain, the rashes and the packing and unpacking. It felt worse than when i was climbing mount kinabalu. I love the colour although it dun really match my existing furniture. Nevertheless,can do some adjustment next time i guess. Now i can go out and play. (",)

i have done something unbelievable today. That's right. I actually bother to queue and wait patiently for the singapore idol xmas party held at ATTICA this evening with my long time friend. Although i was just attending as a chaperone and i am not a great fan of sly and taufik as well, i really take me a lot of effort to make my way down clarke quay with her. The waiting time was pretty long since they only let us in at about 745pm while the event should have commenced by 730pm. As usual, we still need to wait for the idols appearance.I would say it was an eye opener since it was the first time i have such close encounter with frantic fans who just scream and wave just to get their idol's attention. It was so important to them that SLY knows that they were there to support him. Some of these gals do have rather remarkable leadership quality. The way they give orders and provide solutions to problems encountered were highly efficient. However, i really hope that they do excel in their studies as well.
So much about his fans. Let's talk about SLY and Taufik's Performances. They both did two numbers each and SLY was still singing 安静. Really hope that he would have sing something new. Overall, they did well though the sound systems was not that fantastic.
