Just now, I spent about 30 minutes to briefly scanned through my LiveJournal entries which I made from 7th August 2004 until 15th May 2005. And here I am, typing away and wondering why am I having the "What-Why-When-Who-and-How" situation.
Nine months of entries of my personal life, work life and love life flashed back at me. Not that I have forgotten most of the events, but somehow it really brought to my attention that I actually wrote (typed) quite alot last time. Well, at least more than the current me with the current blog. Haha.
Is there a permanent blockage in my mind like some long term writer's block? Or are there clusters of memories that I chose to put it away and hide it in the darkest corner of my head?
I couldn't remember that I could make entries with English words which I seldom speak of, although not those that are sophisticatedly delivered. Nor I could remember that I ever made entries in Chinese, that I almost think that I've gotten someone else to type for me.
But languages and words aside. Over these years, I think I've became a different person. Not sure it's for better or worse, just different. Facing new challenges and different kinds of people, I've changed subconsciously when dealing with people and events. I felt that I was able to stay confident in dealing with certain issues, while trying to stay low and away from other things. I won some things, and I lost some too.
In anyways, I still feel that one should not regret in doing his stuff once decision has been made. Making a leap to face changes will always expose yourself and gain experiences, in one way or the other.
ps: I can't sleep and I'm typing rubbish. Again. This has never changed in me. =)

Updates
Updates on my "Things to do":
1. Visit National Library and grab a book - Pending
Have not been to the National Library to pick up a book since its opening, although I've been there a couple of times to watch plays and shows. I think I can make a trip down during lunch or something, all by myself.
2. Get Absolut Vodka Colors - Done
Fabulous Olympics was a nose-bleeding night for all of us. And I got what I wanted! A new addition to my collections of Absolut Vodka.
Edwin, Jowy, Ivan and Edwin's friend are not in this photo.
I lost my bear, can I bring this home?
Here it is. Absolut Colors.
3. Source for getaways - Done
Just managed to browse some leaflets at Pricebreaker Marina Sq branch. No intentions to buy the air tickets or hotel rooms from them, but just having a sense of what they can offer me. Conclusion, no way.
4. Get more fishes for my tank - Done
Erm, not exactly fishes that I gotten for my tank. A small red snail to clean up my tank in case algae starts to infest from the water plants.
My fish tank in office. About a foot long.
New member in the tank. Feeds on algae.
5. Find "Heroes" Season 2 - Done
Bought the dvd set from a local store at $44.95. Sad to say that it has only 11 episodes for volume 2. Well, I'm waiting.
6. Explore Canon EOS DSLR 1000D - Done
Tried this model from Canon showroom Vivocity. Not a bad camera for beginners like me, neither here nor there type. Selling price is at $1099, but I think I know where I can get it at a cheaper price. Haha.
