I mean what's crazy anyways....

Crazy - Gnarls Barkley

I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that phase.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space
And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Probably

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

I mean..what's normal anyways? Craziness to me is like being trapped and submerged in your own thoughts. Everybody goes thru that sometimes, I don't think I'm normal and I'm proud of it.

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are??
Ha ha ha bless your soul...
You really think you're in control???

Body Check up....hrmmm...

Went to my check up today... coz every foreigner who works in Shanghai apparently has to do a body check up. Of coz I was frowning and looking away while they took my blood and all that. But weird thing was I found out that I had Sinus Irregularity and Heart Murmurs. Sinus irregularity is apparently pretty regular..but heart murmurs may be an indication of heart disease...

What Is a Heart Murmur?
A heart murmur is an extra or unusual sound heard during your heartbeat. Murmurs range from very faint to very loud and sometimes sound like a whooshing or swishing noise. Normal heartbeat sounds—"lub-DUPP" or "lub-DUB"—are the valves closing as blood moves through the heart. (Go to the
How the Heart Works section for more information about how a normal heart works.)
A heart murmur is not a disease; it is a sound that the doctor hears with a stethoscope. It may be normal, or it could be a sign that something may be wrong. Most heart murmurs are harmless. Some are signs of heart problems, especially if other signs or symptoms of a heart problem are present.

Types of Murmurs

Innocent (harmless) murmurs
A person with an innocent murmur has a normal heart and usually has no other signs or symptoms of a heart problem. Innocent murmurs are common in healthy children.

Abnormal murmurs
A person with an abnormal murmur usually has other signs or symptoms of a heart problem. Most abnormal murmurs in children are due to
congenital heart defects—heart defects present at birth. In adults, abnormal murmurs are most often due to heart valve problems caused by infection, disease, or aging.


I think the most rational reason for my heart murmurs is that im a healthy child???!!!
YEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems that work has just infiltrated my life entirely lately...always on the phone even during midnite..went to work saturday. I played some golf afterwards..... whenever I play golf..my right side of my back hurts..i guess its coz of my posture or something. Anyhoo.. went to an italian restaurant Cameo then went to Pier One..I really liked that place...I liked the view of overlookin the park with a nice pond. Very relaxing.. By looking at a view like that..I could just stare at it ..and just blank out.. and that was nice..coz too many things have been on my mind lately.
Well today I woke up at like 3.. read some magazines and did a little bit of sudoku..then went out to grab some beer..then watched the Fiba China vs Greece game wid siu keung.. the best thing was we ordered PIZZA!!!!!! Beer, pizza and the game..great..eventho China did lose but it was fun to watch...After that I went for a massage.. I dunno why every time after a massage.. i like loose my balance and wobble about like im drunk or something..anyway my back is better now......

Work Hard.. Play Harrrrrrder

So I had 10 ppl visiting me last weekend..Craziness...Anyway..Thanks to Des, Grace, Wincy, Web, Bow Bow, Fi, Kan, Wendy, Stanley and Yui for coming to see me..I had one of my best weekends in Shanghai ever.

Highlights

  • Drinking till 5 in the morning everyday, Sunday nite was the worst, started at 5pm drank red wine, white wine, went to Jap restaurant, drank sake, plum wine, beer, then went to Grand Hyatt and drank red wine and grolsh..then went back to home and drank champagne. Had a splitting headache..Passed out and forgot to say bye to Yui.
  • Stayin in a nice VIP room in Bar Rouge.. How nice...Happy Bday Dean!!!
  • Seeing Yui (Haven't seen this guy since graduation... 8 years!!!!!! I feel old)
  • Got money thrown at my face by my good frd Bow Bow
  • Almost losing my new phone within 24hrs (Now I have a rewards plan, my buddies say will buy me a free K600i if I don't lose my new phone in 2 months..judging from what I did..they think its a safe bet)
  • Seeing funny drunks..Bow Bow, Yui and my enemy Web (They were yelling "Pizza..Pizza ..Pizza" at 3am..starting a riot..and I had to say "Fuck..I told you like a million times..its freakin closed")

Can't wait to party like that again..tee hee!!!!!!!! Wait for Guo Xing la.. I'll be back!!

Reinforcement is HERE....

Current status: Suprised and overwhelmed...

I guess as the saying goes..if a door closes ..there's always a window of opportunity for something greater. Lately I've been having a lot of "windows"..i'm just on a roll and have a struck of luck. I can't believe that I'm doing this well here in just half a year, considering that I've been struggling so much at the start. I feel like I have full support and back up and now I just have to live up to expections (for others and myself of coz)

This is what I wanted ..what i yearned..what i strived for.. so no looking back .. no nothing..so just go.. and live it up.

AYEEEE mate..in IREland

Oh it was a quick trip.. I arrived to Cork airport around midnite..checked in the hotel..checked my emails..waited for the SHA office to open..sent some more emails and went to bed around 3am..woke up at 9am..headed out. So I heard that Kinsale was a nice town by the sea..so I just asked to front desk to the nearest bus station ..then waitied..the people in Ireland are generally REALLY nice.. I kinda forgot how cultivated human beings can be.. a couple of ppl chatted me up while I was waiting for the bus and the bus station manager even made sure I got on the right bus. How nice..

I arrived to Kinsale half an hour later..walked around a bit..it was really a relaxing place..and they had a Farmer's market that day which was just lovely.. a lot of homemade food.. cheese..pies..jam..meat loaf..hummus..crepes.. all the food u can get. There were 2 musicians playing jazz in the corner..so the place was like sooo decent and relaxing..there was this little kid dancing along too.. Sooo cute.. (Check the clip) Anyway..after grabbing some food I got a can of Druids Premium Irish Cider...It was quite nice..after that I waited to get on the bus to head back...

Eventho it was just 2 hrs in this little town..but it felt great..it felt different..I mean..the world is a vast place and sometimes when u think you're trapped or cagged..u just have to kno what santuaries are prolly just hours away.

Anyhoo.. enjoy the pics


Farmer's Market and Roasted Potatoes ...MmMMmMMmmm
