These are the last of the pictures, forgive me if there are duplicates, rumour has it that we have taken more than 500 photographs that night. Tsk tsk, bunch of narcissists. I've a little speech prepared on Christmas eve, it turns out i still think its too mushy to actually say them/write them. Suffice it to say, you people are the love of my life and i love y'all. :)

An Almost Perfect Weekend (The sequel)

BURP! Excuse moi, but i think i've had too much to eat this weekend. Our barbeque cum tenting at East Coast Park was quite a blast. It was my very first attempt at setting up a tent and camping in the wild(McDonald's was 150 metres away, good old Macers, but shhh, we dont need everyone to know that). Do give us some credit here, we are, after all, city boys and girls wanting to get in touch with mother nature. Its funny how sometimes extemporaneous efforts seem to work better than carefully thought out ones, its just one of those things i guess. And i did recently find out the source of these wise words - Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans - John Lennon. I wish i could write better, just so i can describe how beautiful the sun rising from the horizon was, or how breathtaking it was to watch the endless skies illuminated by streaks of lightning. It was, hmmm.... surreal. And to know that spectacular sights as such occurs every morning, i'm awe-struck and stupefied, and astronomically lonely. I was so desperate to have a lover's hand to hold, a shoulder to lean on, anything to share this magical moment with, i half wanted to grab Agus' hand, just to know how it feels, to have that, that precious moment that doesnt come very often.

Something must be wrong somewhere, loneliness when you are single is something i can handle, because there is something to look forward to, there is the hope that somewhere out there, there is someone that can make it all go away. But this, this i am not ready for, this i am not equipped to manage. And so the only logical response i came up with was to use humour as a cover up, to act like a clown, and maybe my mind would somehow think its all a farce. Do i sound like Chandler or what? I hope i didnt freak my poor friends out though. Now that you know my secret, i am going to have to silence every single one of you. :D The next time this happens, do not freak out, laugh at my jokes and know that i will be fine. I am not a schizophrenic, i am a gemini.

Counting down the days to Christmas! It'll be our best one yet, i can see it coming. Dont you just love this time of the year? Even though it doesnt snow here in Singapore, even though its 35 degrees celsius in the supposed "winter", even though Santa Claus has to deliver his Christmas presents in a bathing suit just so he doesnt die from heat stroke, still, its Christmas. Its beautiful. Its lovely. Merry Christmas friends. Merry Christmas Baka. Merry Christmas to everyone who reads this.
