~sense~

Sometimes sudden disruptive change is
inevitable, and as painful as it may seem, we come through it a stronger and
better person. No matter how disruptive things are at the moment, or if you feel
life is really against you, re-evaluate and move on - often a new direction can
bring new opportunities you never dreamed of.

Sunday - hibernation begins~

Sunday - the vegetating day

Was thinking of juz hibernating todae but the weather is just too nice to stay indoors. Watched F1 on RTL while making endless efforts to peel myself of the bed..and sink into my couch in front of the bed...heee...shiok drop-dead-laziness



Alonso is leading...SCHUMI wake up!

Schumi's toy broke down during the qualifiers yest or 2 days ago cant remember...but anyway. Buck up my boy...

It was only Lap8...so i went shower. The warehouse is having Oktoberfest celebration later, maybe i should go ..hehe!

oh well, after shower, felt like doing some touristy things todae, since life cant be more interesting todae. Went to buy some cute chochies to send back singapore at Alsterhaus then stroll to buy tics for the Alstat boat ride (haha, touristy enuff huh!). Boat doesnt leave till 15 minutes later so i hurry across the road to get myself some donuts ball for my "excursion"

Soon, i was on the boat and the trip started - wow..its beautiful - and of coz munching my ballies and armed with my camy, snapping endlessly. The journey's not too expensive though..about 10 Euros. It was fun.

After the boat ride, walked past St. Petri church, the mass was over i think, coz it looked pretty empty, but i decided to pop in to have a look anyway - take some gothic pics - hehe.

Suddenly, I just felt all peaceful and i decided to just sit on one of the benches and watch people pray. There was this serene corner where you sit on the log, lit a candle and erect it in the sand. it was soooo quiet, it really feel so good, away from the crowd.

It is actually a wierd situation - everytime i am in a church, it never failed to make me feel all serene and i see - me...myself.

Though the peaceful mind, my heart felt a sudden gush of loneliness. The heart was not at all in peace.

After keeping myself dead-beat with work these 2 months, i suddenly thought about life....for the first time in recent months.

All these battles of my own thoughts and feelings happened in the church, but yet i am so calm and took in a deep breathe. Thoughtlessly, the different faith that each of us embraces doesnt matter anymore. I will compromise anything for this moment of tranquility

Closed my eyes, and thought about stuff for a while.... I found myself muttered "GIve me peace, give me happiness" There can still be tears in life, but let it be tears of joy. Stop myself from carrying on further as i could already felt my tears coming...

Stood up and walked around the hall and lit up 2 candles and placed it in front of the sand at the foot of Mother Mary's figurine. A form of respect and..oh well...made some well wishes. the 2 candles, one for the happiness of chub's life and also on behalf of chiuso, for his happiness and success in his life.

Left St Petri and walked to the memorial church behind Alliance building and Deutsche Bank. Paid my 3euros and took the lift up to the 75m lobby. It was windy up there...in fact quite chilly. but Shiok! hehe. The view was divine. Usually when im overseas...its always chiuso around, but from now, i should be getting use to my own life, without depending too much on his presence.

On the way back to Neur Wall, i passed by this cute chocolate cookie place! Almost wanna buy it for froggie but decided..nah, he has his gingerbread man =)

Passed by Tui as well...oh i see..the one that froggie mention about bee is working in.

Stroll by Rathaus again and heard the pianist i saw this morning, playing along the channel bridge outside Hugo boss. Stop and enjoyed myself for the next hour. He was super, and look so attractive behind that grogeous grand piano.

Took more pics where Kheng How mentioned - about the fountain etc.. - and headed back.

My day was of coz concluded by my much needed relaxing bath. Soaked myself in there for the next hour reading my book.

The tub seemed empty...i used to always share it with you in sydney...today, its juz me
