I wish this was the proper time.

Both Babys had good days yesterday. Small Baby had her bath and was taken out for a long walk, and was fed two full meals plus Macdonalds. Big Baby had me to cook dinner for her and serve her like Caesar and she got to bring Small Baby out. Small Baby was wailing and whimpering the moment we stepped out of the house, and so, Big Baby decided to allow her to tag along with us.

My personal favourite of her that was taken yesterday.

She was attempting to mohawk Baby's hair

There, done.

Washing of the tail.

Emo dad and emo kid.

You are the ones my heart calls Home to.

CHIJ KC'S SCHOOL SONG

Forward Katong Convent
Make our future bright
To achieve our aims
Bravely we will fight
Guide us in our labours
To the Lord we pray
In wisdom, strength and courage
Growing day by day

Solidly united
By our motto sound
Simple in virtue
Strong in duty bound

In duty to our country
Let us steadfast be
Serving it with cheerfulness
And with loyalty
Let us ever noble be
In thought and word and deed
Striving to our utmost
Always to succeed

Everyone feels despondent at times and you are no exception. You are feeling so depressed because it seems that everything that could go wrong has gone wrong and you don't quite know which way to turn. So like the proverbial ostrich you are trying to bury your head in the sand. But that won't work - you have to face reality.

You are a leader and possibly at this tine in a position of authority, but you are experiencing problems. You are not quite sure how to handle the present situation.

It's the time of year that you are apt to become extremely restless and emotionally withdrawn. This is preventing you from becoming deeply involved with a person or persons within your sphere of influence. If you are willing to 'let go' and release your inhibitions you will find that a great deal of physical satisfaction will result, far more than perhaps you even believed you were capable of.

Recent disappointment has led you to become truly introverted. You are becoming suspicious of everybody and consequently you now feel that you are unable to trust anybody. Unfortunately it would appear that you are curbing your natural enthusiasm and imaginative nature - perhaps this is because you are fearful that you may become over enthused and find that you could possibly be carried away by wishful thinking. You are keeping your distance to see whether attitudes towards you are sincere - but this watchfulness could easily develop into suspicion and distrust.

Perhaps in the distant past your trust and belief in your fellow man was misplaced and you can now no longer accept anything as it appears to be. You are untrusting and you insist that before you commit yourself to anything, you examine the pro's and con's with critical discrimination. The situation has now progressed to one where you are apt to disagree yet not make any form of constructive criticism to every suggestion that may be put to you. As a result you are in limbo. There is a saying that goes 'The past does not equal tomorrow'. Think about it - and let go.

Every heard of Carpe Diem? Seize the day and my destiny is within my own control.

I mocked your inability as you mocked mine. Now you're here, unbreaking me.

PHANTOM
Past the point
of no return -
no backward glances:
the games we've played
till now are at
an end...
Past all thought
of "if" or "when" -
no use resisting:
abandon thought
and let the dream
descend...

What raging fire
shall flood the soul?
which rich desire
unlocks its door?
What sweet seduction
lies before
us...?

Past the point
of no return,
the final threshold -
what warm,
unspoken secrets
will we learn?
Beyond the point
of no return...

CHRISTINE
You have brought me
to that moment
where words run dry,
to that moment
where speech
disappears
into silence,
silence...

I have come here,
hardly knowing
the reason why...
In my mind,
I've already
imagined our
bodies entwining,
defenceless and silent -
and now I am
here with you:
no second thoughts,

I've decided,
decided...

Past the point
of no return -
no going back now:
our passion-play
has now, at last
begun...
Past all thought
of right or wrong -
one final question:
how long should we
two wait, before
we're one...?

When will the blood
begin to race,
the sleeping bud
burst into bloom?
When will the flames,
at last consume
us...?

PHANTOM & CHRISTINE
Past the point
of no return,
the final threshold -
the bridge
is crossed, so stand
and watch it burn...
We've passed the point
of no return...

PHANTOM
Say you'll share with
me one
love, one lifetime...
Lead me, save me
from my solitude...

Say you want me
with you,
here beside you...
Anywhere you go
let me go too -
Christine,
that's all I ask of...

NIQUE CHUA TURNS 18, the surprise party!

Preparations were done and processed days before the actual day. I'm glad Nique enjoyed the little celebration that everyone contributed to make happen.

Preparing at the residents' lounge. We had to do banners with assortment of pictures. Being afraid of her being in search of us nearby her area, we sought refuge in safety at the staircase.

Before the cake-cutting.
She was so apprehensive, thinking we were going to smash her face into the chunk of brownie cake.

She liked the brownie I made!
"Why you buy large?!"
"Nono, you see, it is just nice because your shoulders are broad!"
She was being an imp and fidgeting all the way to the durian place (looking like that, of course).
Turning 18 isn't easy!
We fell and the aftermath of it is a huge bump on my head. When the blinds came off, this was what happened...
"Got durian in my eye...!"
Pictorial proof of durian in her eye.
Evan was spared the least.

There were underaged people in our midst and I had forgotten to bring out my IC, so we headed for Zouk's winebar, with intentions of getting Nique her requested Waterfall. But to her disappointment and ours, they had run out of it. Flaming Lamborghini was alternative. Sylvia tried to do her 'thang'.
So the kissing game started. That's Anju and myself.
Kaesen and Wanzhen.
Anju and Vonn.
Vonn and Nique. Yup.
Kaesen and Sylvia. First pair of butch-butch kissing for the night.
Yup again. Myself and Manda.
Kaesen and Nique. Just see their tongues.



She doesn't like Flaming Lamborghini very much. Well, she vomited it out a bit later.


We had our private time together, of course.

Her smile is so awesomely beautiful. And she is the woman that rocks my world.

So that was her 18th. She loved the day and she loved the presents from everyone. And thank you, to everyone who contributed to making it happen smoothly.

12th May 2007, a date to remember.

Happy legal 18th. Happy birthday, Nique.

Four years of phases have led me to watching you grow and become the woman star of my life, my lifestyle's reflection, the sap of my motivation and you-get-it-already.

You don't know how lovely you are.

So have yourself the happiest birthday from me and all those whom hearts you have filled little spaces of.

I need words. It's a pre-birthday fidgety premonition.

P/S Not pertaining to my birthday.

Cleopatra loved Caesar, and vice versa, regardless of conspired agendas below surfaces.

'Julius' was the boldest term of endearment from her to him. 'Baye' is mine to you. 'Kitten' was a term of endearment from him to her. 'Beye' is yours to me.

In the gathering darkness, maybe a change would do good.

Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of the opera - marvellous high-priced settings, fancy bejewelled costumes, well-conducted orchestra, (slightly disappointing) vocals and some pictures to keep this day in memory.

Honestly, the vocals of 'Kristine' could be improvised because she really sounded like the female opera singer of the opera. Her voice wasn't sweet enough and it was slightly too lungy for the words to be clearly audible.

It was a dress-up day for all of us.

There are discontentments about certain aspects of the play, but it was an experience of a lifetime.
