It's 21st September! 2 more days the D&D is coming! Not really exciting though as I don't expect much from the event, just wanna enjoy the show and gather with colleagues. The theme is 80s, and dress code is bright colour dress. I'm going to wear black dress, really out of the dress code ah??? What do you think? Or do I need to wear a normal pink shirt plus jeans? Need ur opinion please....
I won't participate any talent show this year, just sit and becomes one of the spectators. Hope I won't get called for any other funny2 games as well. Just wanna sit and enjoy the show. Hope everything goes on smoothly... Hehehe....

My invitation card number is 3029. Familiar number ah? Also dob of my bro and sis-in-law. So I decided to buy 4D this week. If I win, that will be great! Hahahahaha... Can donate some money to charity :)

Read newspaper yesterday, there was a Chinese billionaire who will donate all of his wealth to charity once he passed away. He won't even inherit his wealth to his own son. But sometimes I just wonder, why he must wait until he dies then he donates? Why can he started to donate NOW??? Hehehehe... Although both has same good intention, but the effect will be quite different, don't u think so? If he is willing to donate now, it means he is willing to let go his wealth during his lives. He will be able to accept impermanent condition, from being rich to be poor. Although he is poor materially, but he is creating a rich good karma for future life. And I don't think people will let him become poor by donating such a lot of wealth to needy people. People will somehow will help and support him so that he won't get homeless and no food on his table until he dies. Anyway... I don't think I'm in the position to comment so much hehehe....

I've booked the Oktoberfest dinner for 101010. Supposedly we planned to go on 8th, but it's fully booked from 7 to 9. No choice, we have to go on Sunday night. But the date is quite special. So.. Just be there and enjoy! Have purchased their beer coupon as well. Hehehehe... Hope everything is going smoothly.

Well, stop here. Have a great day everyone!!!

How silly I am to be sad with my own condition. I should have been lucky that so far my condition so far is still so good. Today I can feel a slighly pain and numb on my left hand for quite some time, perhaps I type on bb too much kekeke.. Not really lah.. Then, I heard sad news from my new friend. He told me that something has happened to his wife. It's much more serious than mine. I could feel his sadness as it happens to his loved one. You would do anything if there is any way to cure it. You would try your very best to make your loved one's health to be good again, or at least to go back to normal. But this is life. Life is full of challenges to all of us. Some get more while some get even more. I wish I can help them as well. Moral support, encouragement, or anything.

There are many people out there taking their life and health for granted. They don't think much about their future. Wish when it comes, they'd die soon. But when it really comes, then they would start regretting of what they'd done previously.

Sometimes I take my health for granted too.. Just like yesterday. Hehehe... Me and few closed friends had a little gathering, a destress drinking session. Only 3 drinkers though, but it was quite fun. The food was a lot of disappointment, only the beers that were nice hehehe... I had about 4 pints (500ml per pint). It felt great. Somehow you'd laugh uncontrollably, just felt happy. My friend had 5 pints. Kekeke... He also likes to drink but has cut down its frequency due to his health. Well, we had an enjoyable night and met some old and current friends. It's pre-Oktoberfest. So.. we'll have another round next month, a real Oktoberfest. Hope can find some drinkers as well to join the happy moment :D

PY, Lam, and Me

Prost!!!

Well, lastly, I just can say, life is short. Enjoy every moments while you can. Show your love to all your loved ones. Whatever feelings you have, reduce your anger and hates... It won't matter anymore when time comes :) Just be fun, be happy!!!

Today I was kinda sad after hearing the news that my immune body is still fighting my own body cells. This time, the blood test result showed that my white blood cell is diminishing and slightly below normal. So Doctor prescribed me back the steroid. Although the dose was not so high, I'm still sad over the fact that this thing can attack me anytime, anywhere they like. No reason, no explanation given. Good news is that my other body organs like kidney, liver, are all okay.Doctor told me that patient like me will still need the steroid on and off. Still have to depend on it. Haiz.... I have to go back 2 months later.

Another good news is.. I can see my young and handsome doctor again for my next visit ;) so happy!! Long time no see him liao. He was away for studying. .

Since I was away for my appointment for about 2.5 hrs, I replaced back my working hours by working late. I'm on my way back now. Need to count those recipe costing for upcoming X'mas!

Tomorrow we're going for a dinner. My friends wanted to celebrate early Birthday party for me. Too early.. So I prefer to call it 'destress drinking session' kekekeke... Now it's very crowded in Clarke Quay area. There is Taiwan food promotion and many lanterns shown for the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival. Just wanna get rid of those unhappiness things somehow by drinking more... But my friends can't drink le... Hiks... Nevermind la.. They still can order soft drinks.., while I'm having my Erdinger!!! Yamsenggggg!!!!!

'A better method to reach an inner contentment is not to have what we want but rather to want and appreciate what we have'

The sentence above was taken from book 'Art of Happiness', written based on interview of the writer and the 14th Dalai Lama. It is true that most of the time we want to have this and that. Seems like we have never had enough. Some people who has got married and have a child would still think of having another better man or woman to be with. Their mind would always think that their wives or husbands are not good enough. They might meet other man or woman that they think he or she is much better than their current husbands and wives. Can be more kind, cleverer, more successful, more understanding, more feminine, prettier, younger, etc.

Couple that have already had one child, might think of having more. But while wanting to have more, they didn't really care about the current one once the child has grown up. The child might be neglected by busy parents, or left it with maid or parents to take care. They only want to have new thing without appreciating what they have already had.

So, it is really not easy to be content with what we have already had. We must keep reminding ourselves not to be greedy. Appreciate what we have. Love it more, take care of it more, etc.

Hope this can be a little reflection in doing our daily lives. Be content, be happy!!!
