Have you ever wondered?

I guess now, besides from my beloved Dad and Mum, everyone who needs to know knows that I am getting married to the love of my life. 30th December is the date. Beaufort is the place. And Blacks and I, are the stars of the show. As we prepare for the wedding and our lives to come. My mind begin to wonder.

Have you every wondered who attracts you and who you are attracted to?
Is there a prototype, a single type of person that attracts you? As my eyes glazed at the man who is lying beside me in bed, I see a different side of him from everyone. To me, he is a gentle man of few words, funny and sometimes a bit childish yet lovable and dotes on me. To others, he is a stern firm man of few words, serious and mature. Sometimes, I dunno why I'm drawn to him. I dunno why I love him so much. And I dunno why he loves me so. I cried the night he told me he wanted to marry me. I cried happy tears for I din know that we would really one day be married. The day I told him I was surprise we were actually getting married because we talk about it so much I always thought we would be one of those couple that simply talk about it. He replied in the most non-chalently of ways, he said to me that I don;t know how much he wants to marry me. My heart stopped. I gasped my breath as my eyes felt a stinging sensation. I love him. I love him very very much and YES I DO!

Have you ever wondered whether the saying 'a rainbow after a storm' is true and applicable to life?
To me I think its true. I am experiencing it now. I was riding on a rainbow last year when I worked at PICO, after enduring a storm of unemployment. Then this year, I rided out the storm of C*****S storm and now I am finally reaping the benefits. I got a new job!!!!

Have you ever wondered what it takes to make a person smile?
I made 2 people smile today. The birthday gift that E-Chiing and I bought for E-Lin's birthday has reached her 1 week early. We bought her a sexy lingerie to aid in her birth-making. I received a word of thanks for my dear dear brother-in-law who seems happier receiving the gift than E-Lin, I was told.

Have you ever wondered whether you can hurt your eardrum?
Well, my dad has apparently done so, puncturing his eardrum on his flight back from Hattyai. Now, he is walking around with some cotton wool in his ear because the 'direct' sound actually makes his ear hurt.

Have you ever wondered what actually goes on in an animal's head?
Aren't we all still figuring that out.

- Love...a wife to be....me

As I struggled to think of the title of for this long due entry, my mind is flooded with the events that occurred this month. There was a wedding, there was a death, there was happiness, sadness and the TV is perpatually stuck at channel 27 (WC Premium) now.

The World Cup began. The game that unites the world. The game that stopped a war temporarily. 11 men per team. 90mins of play. Its addicitive.

I married a girlfriend off. A a true blue Teochew, we were all up at 3am, ready to negotiate a good price for the lovely bride. At 5am, she was in the hands of her husband. Ready to take on the world together. As the bridesmaid help with the entire processions for the day, we made friends and had out own fun together with the best men. It also dawn upon me that I really don;t want a traditional clad wedding. Too much work. Too much customs that I dont comprehend!
But as I finally watch her walk down the aisle towards the Justice of Peace, my lips quivered and tears flowed uncontrollably down my cheeks. My Lynn is getting married!!!!

With every celebration of life, there is a death. One of my former teacher passed away Tuesday morning. After struggling with cancer for the past few years, she finally succumb to it and left to the kingdom of the lord. As I sat at the wake reminisicing old times with friends I havent seen in many years, we remembered her and thanked her for her dedication in our hearts. I also notice that although her family was sadden by her passing, they also showed signs of relieve and thankful that she no longer needed to suffer the pain. That she finally was able to let go and move on. It dawned upon me that death is not neccessarily the be all and end all of things. Death although inevitable, can be a good thing sometimes. And death, can be a celebration of life as well. Thank you Ms Peh. I am really sorry I didn't make the effort to see you for the last time before you go.
