孫燕姿 《當冬夜漸暖》

After so long, my idol: Stephanie Sun Yan Zi, 孫燕姿, finally has a new album, named "It's time".
It's been four years since her last album!



Today on Facebook, someone shared one of the MV, and im loving it. =)
 


《當冬夜漸暖》
詞: 藤井樹，曲:饒善強

很多事情 不是誰說了就算
即使傷心 結果還是自己擔
多少次失望表示著多少次期盼
事實證明 幸福很難

我們之間 不是誰說了就算
拉扯的愛 徒增結局的難堪
一百次相愛只要有一次的絢爛
下一次 會更勇敢

當冬夜漸暖 當大海也不再那麼藍
當月色的純白變得陰暗
那只是代表快樂不再那麼簡單

當冬夜漸暖 當夏夜的樹上不再有蟬
當回憶老去的痕跡斑斑
那只是因為悲傷從來 都不會有答案

當冬夜漸暖 當青春也都煙消雲散
當美麗的故事都有遺憾
那只是習慣把愛當做喜歡
重要的是 我們如何愛過那一段

Loving Yourself

I love myself, so wanted to update it onto Facebook.
The relationship part, that is. =)


I wanted to set it to 'In a relationship' with myself.



After saving it, it prompted me something..



Come, i zoom in, let you see..

Facebook prompt me: "You cannot create a relationship with yourself." 
-____-||

But i love myself, so much!! (HAHA!)

Instead of trying to find that special love of someone, love yourself first!
Did some readings from Wiki How.
Below are the steps, and the things i did, or am doing, after reading it. =)


1. Be honest with yourself about how valuable you believe you are.
Everytime i tell myself, i am not that lousy, or bad. When you feel yourself more worth, you become more valuable.

2. Start sharing. 
Share, what you know, what you learn, and people around will see the value of having you around.

3. FORGIVE yourself if you ever believe you aren't worthy of love.
Everyone is worthy of Love. Try saying this into the mirror every morning.

4. Post this affirmation up someplace where you will see it each and every day; "I have the courage to believe that I am worthy of love."
Keep telling yourself that your are worthy of Love! Everyday. =)

5. Take action and make those words real.
Make this step into action: love yourself, love others, spread the love around.

6. Learn to let go.
Everyone will sure come across bad experiences, relationship, being rejected (*cough*).
Let it go, it will pass and Life doesn't stop here.

7. Remember that love is not a feeling, it is a choice! 
The more you Love yourself, the more the friends around will benefit. That is you, loving yourself, and spreading it to the people around you.

8. Think about what you need to fill that emptiness inside, that place that is longing for love.
Think of something to fill that emptiness in your heart, personally, i find things to fill the mind. Examples: jogging, cleaning the room or house, talk to my hamster (sometimes.) And when you are so full of loving yourself, you will naturally become a more loving person.

9. Keep a journal.
Write it down. For me, i write on my Blog. Happy, Sad happenings.
They can motivate you and you can also learn things out of it. It also serves as good memories of events in your life. =)

10. Get in Tune with Yourself.
Listen to music. The songs you are listening can affect your moods too, try to play more happy songs on your mp3 player, alright?

11. Do 3 things a day, to change yourself into your dream person If it is gaining or losing weight, then take a step by dancing for 20 minutes. 
Want to know what i did for this?
Firstly, i look into the mirror, tell myself: "Today is a better day.".
Secondly, look into my own eyes, and say: "You are actually not that bad..."
Thirdly, Smile to yourself in the mirror. (This, is very useful.)

12. Hug yourself.
Put your left hand over the right shoulder.
Put your right hand over the left shoulder.
There you go, give yourself a tight hug!! =)

Insomnia or 失眠

nce in a while, we can't seem to fall asleep.

This can be dues to stress at work, problems faced, relationship problems, and many more.

Last night, i faced this problem.
I count sheeps..



I tried counting to 9465738592 times.
Did not work.

So i on the laptop, tweet, and play games.

Bejeweled.



Tried to make the eyes tired..
Did not work.

Come to a point, whereby i saw the clock was 2am, i went to give my final try, on the bed.
After some twist and turns on the bed, i fell asleep. (Finally.. but not sure what time was it. Haha!)

And judging at how it is going, i hope i can sleep well tonight. =)

To all my friends having insomnia like me, this song is for you!

陳奕迅 - 全世界失眠

想起我不完美　你會不會　 逃離我生命的範圍
想著你的滋味　我會不會　 把這個枕頭　變得甜美

想起白天的約會　忘了晚上的咖啡　
只怕感情如潮水　遠離我夢中的堡壘

一個人失眠　全世界失眠　
無辜的街燈　守候明天
幸福的失眠　只是因為害怕閉上眼　
如何想你想到六點　如何愛你愛到終點

想起我的時候　你會不會　好像我一樣不能睡
想像你的曖昧　我會不會　數不到綿羊　一雙一對

想起白天的約會　忘了晚上的咖啡　
只怕感情如潮水　遠離我夢中的堡壘

一個人失眠　全世界失眠　
無辜的街燈　守候明天
幸福的失眠　只是因為害怕閉上眼　如何想你想到六點

一個人失眠　全世界失眠
幸福的失眠　只是因為害怕閉上眼　如何想你想到六點
如何愛你愛到終點　如何愛你愛到終點



Sleep well. =)

Meet up weekend.

Hi my dear friends!

How was the last weekend?
As it left us in a blink of our eyes, let's look forward to the next weekend! =)

My Sat was planned with a tennis game, but was being forced to reschedule it to 2 weeks later, due to the heavy rain. -___-"
So it was spent hiding at a nearby shopping centre, eating.

The rain got heavier, and there was no shelter being linked to the nearest bus stop or mrt station. (Oh no!)

Why the ''oh no!'' ? I was supposed to have a Tweetup (word from Twitterland) session with my Twitter friends!

And so, i rushed home, changed, and rush to meet them. So Sorry!!

However i was being blessed with food they left behind for me.



Thank you all! =)

We also had fun, frying the ice-cream after it.



*Stir Stir*



See my happy face?

* * * * * * * *

Sunday was another meet up with my diploma classmates.

We went to F.I.S.H. at 313 Somerset.
This place was also being featured on Sparklette! =)

With a main course, you can top up some money, to enjoy their salad bar.
Credits to my friend's camera.


Their salad bar.



The food we had.



The fun people.

One thing i love about the people and service of the restaurant. They explain everything on the menu, the moment we arrive, and was always asking us, how was the food, and things like that.

And surprises came, knowing it was my belated birthday celebration, they even wrote a card and gave me a balloon! HAHA!

Thank you all!

 

Will drop by again soon! =)

The men don’t get it..

The men don’t get it.
Not that Ladies Card i'm talking about.

What i referring to is: Depression.



Do you know, Men can also get Depression too?

Article from HERE, says that each year, depression affects about 6 million American men and 12 million American women.

And the symptoms (for male) are:
* Anger and frustration
* Violent behavior
* Losing weight without trying
* Taking risks, such as reckless driving and extramarital sex
* Loss of concentration
* Isolation from family and friends
* Avoiding pleasurable activities
* Fatigue
* Loss of interest in work, hobbies and sex
* Alcohol or substance abuse
* Misuse of prescription medication
* Thoughts of suicide

More to read over HERE.

********

Purpose of this post, you wondering?

Of course, firstly its to share the knowledge of Men can get Depression too. And after some 'internal battle' of the mind, i decide to disclose that, i am actually out of job, for a month. Some of you know it, some don't. (Sigh of relief, after i typed this.)

Yup, the new work i got to, was not something i like, so i left the place.

I do feel emotional and lost as time pass, day by day, sounds like depression. I hope i have not offended anyone, so far?

Thank you to the concerns of the friends, on Facebook (Some did it too openly,though..), Twitter(Many encouraging Tweets!), and of course the real life friends! (For the smses and calls..)

Resumes are being sent, job agencies did call, interviews were attended.
Their standard replies: "We will call you."
However, seldom they came.

What i facing now is the awaiting of an job opening and being offered for me, so that i can bring myself up and move forward again!

To those facing obstacles (like me now.), it will be over very soon.

Do Not Give Up~

However if anyone of my friends have accounting or temp jobs to offer, please call/email me at : soh.hongwei@yahoo.com.sg ok? =)

I thank you for reading.

Is your Facebook profile picture good enough?

Saw this video posted from my friend on Facebook.



After watching this, i went to take a look at my profile picture.

Then Ru Hua (如花） the character who always appear in Stephen Chow's movie, the image flashed through my mind..



And if you still don't know....
Share with you, video...



And so, i went back to my Facebook account.



So the one with the circle, or the one with the star, is more appealing ?
*LAME*
=)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Ever since i got dumped many years ago, i have been single since then.
Honestly, i dont like Valentine's Day. =)

While the usual khakis are either with the boyfriend, girlfriend, wife or husband. I stayed home.
(Ok, i did TRY to ask someone out, but FAIL. LoL)

Thats why my facebook status is: "V Day for me should be spent inside ktv room. Others outside hold hands, me screaming inside room. Yeah!"

Put in in a funnier way for myself, actually makes me feel abit better.

And if i am at ktv, the first song i sing, shall be this.



=)

And this!!



=P

By the way, someone on Twitter mentioned today is also #SingleAwarenessDay, short form - SAD. (Boo!)

But still, Happy Valentine's Day, my dear friends!
--<-@

**Clap hands**

My very first present came from my ex-colleagues, or friends of at least 5 years!



A Braun Buffel wallet!
I love it! =D

Although i already left the company,we still keep in touch with each other.
I really thank them for remembering my birthday, and we will be having another gathering coming Sunday (YEAH!!)

* * * * * * * *

I hope my luck changes better, soon.



Meanwhile, enjoy the "shaking" of the head, and the upcoming Valentine's Day!

Happy Birthday to myself.




*I scheduled this post at 12:01am of 11 Feb 2011*
Let's see if this works... =P

'Rent' a partner for Chinese New Year?

Get to know about this article through Facebook, as one of my friend posted a status of :- 'rent' girlfriend of CNY? well, please text me...ha ha ha ha

For a while, i thought she was going to earn some Ang Bao money. LoL

However, after a  few messages being exchanged, she was actually referring to this article from Yahoo.sg.

The title being : Singaporeans ‘rent’ partners for Chinese New Year

It seems that, people are actually getting help from dating agencies, casual friends and even hiring social escorts to pose as romantic partners — for a day, or even a couple of hours!!
They did this to avoid the 'Yearly Question" (in which i am being asked annually too..) of where their partners are..

WAH!! 

And to hire an escorts, it can range from S$5,000 to S$20,000 !! O_O

WAH x 10 !

So expensive!!

So sorry i dont have that kind of money, and i shall put on my thinking cap to think of an excuse for this coming Chinese New Year. Hehe! =P

However if you want to make friend with Hong Wei... 
小姐, 這是我的名片...
Translation in English: "Hi Miss, This is my name card.."



=P

Dinner at Heaven's Loft with Season of the Witch

It was a gathering of friends for the Jan and Feb babies of the gang.

We decided to check it out, Heaven's Loft at Orchard Central.

The surrounding was nicely decorated, and a great place for gathering of friends.

My friend booked the seat outdoors, or the bar area, in which we were greeted with the natural wind blowing from outside and the live singing.


I had Fish & Chips, and the Ben & Jerry ice-cream as dessert. =)
The food were nicely decorated, however limited(In terms of quantity).

And then, we ended dinner with a group photo!

(But, the more i look at this, the more i feel i'm like the only one without partner..??! HAHA! )

Some of us, went for "Season of the witch" movie by Nicholas Cage, later that night.


Some disgusting scenes, flying effects, wolves becoming "evil wolves".. blah blah..
Overall, it was for Nicolas Cage.. =P

We catch up, joked around, and had great fun!

A bit of stress relieved for me, but still Life must go on.
