She
May be the face I can't forget
The trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She
May be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day
She
May be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
The smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell
Nope, this is not one of the cruises that i am marketing and neither am i onboard for a ship inspection. Early morning 7am this morning, found me at the Singapore Cruise Center. I was waiting to go onboard "Long Jie" - a cruise ship whose main business is: Gambling. Weird to find me onboard?
Well, it's an interesting experience and definitely an eye-opener to various aspects. Below are few pictures that i took.
On the top deck looking towards the bridge that connects to Sentosa.
I like how the sunlights reflects off the sea & how convenient a little ferry sail past.
I like the above quotation and find it to be very true. Friends are like estate; an asset where you can enjoy happy ocassions together, go park yourself when you are bored or become a sanctuary to escape when you face problems. I am lucky to be in company of old and dear friends last night.

That's all, my friends! Sorry, i have to run off early; i promise next time i will make it to the "minds" cafe with you guys.
As I was on my way out to work early yesterday morning, i was lucky to capture a beautiful idyllic picture at my doorstep. This is what i saw from afar.
Beautiful, isnt it? I swear i did not do any edits. Many beauty lies in the eye of the beholder but i truly find this morning sight a beautiful and calming sight.
Somehow, this makes me feel that; it is really beautiful at home here in Singapore too. Even though i always lust after the sun in other faraway places and dreams constantly of star-gazing at other universals rather than here, at that moment, i really feel home is the most beautiful place.
Everytime i get my wanderlust in future, i will always remember this scenery. :)

My first day of 2009 found me at Labrador Park around noon time. Thoughts whirled in my head but nothing was concluded.
Anyway, I was advised to go learn and take up driving lessons and I will. So there, that's on top of 2009's agenda.
Below are some pictures for sharing:
A quiet walk.
Amidst shadows.
View from afar. A forgotten 01.02.08.
Waving poigantly.
Flattened and forgotten. Still a splash of color.
Move on.
Hope all of you have a great start to 2009. :)
The Old Guitarist, 1903
If thou must love me, let it be for nought Except for love's sake only.
Do not say, I love her for her smile, her look, her way of speaking gently, for a trick of thought that falls in well with mine, and, certes, brought a sense of pleasant ease on such a day.
For these things in themselves, Beloved, may be changed, or change for thee- and love so wrought, may be unwrought so.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
