The Year Ahead... in Singapore!

3 more weeks in the UK for me, to finish up 5 reports, and make my way up to Scotland to spend some time with an old family friend, the Skinners, from the 1-4 of May. On the 10 May, I will return to Singapore for what will be a period of not less than a year. I think this will be good news to many people, since that means that you, you, and you get to see and meet me!

I know I have not blogged for more than a month now, but actually during this period I have written a couple of articles but I thought I'ld post them only at a more suitable time. The year hasn't been an easy one thus far, on all fronts there have been hurdles, but I always make do with what I get, and in the end, it always turns out well. There was a competition in Singapore for the Happiest Person recently, one of the finalists answered that the best way to be happy was to make others happy, which I definitely agree with, but I'll add something to that, 'Make the best of what you get, and instead of turning dreams into reality, turn your reality into a dream.'

It's always easy to complain of how our live could be better,but there is this thing inside me, this pride, this determination, that tells me that my life is as good as it gets, and I think, that is what truly keeps me happy. Do you think so?

A little story about colours: My room in Cardiff is colour-coded with my favourtie colours of white, maroon green and light blue. My bedsheet, pillow case, table tops are all of the same colour. (I bought them) The curtains in the room too, were white. (Original) However, due to the increasing post-6pm sunlight coming into the room, my roommate and I decided to buy a new pair of curtains for our rooms to block out the sunlight. We decided on a simple chocolate colour curtain. After installing them, I found that my room has a completely new ambience. My roommate commented that the chocolate seems to have spoilt the colour coding in my room, but I thought it was a welcome addition. Chocolate brown makes the room much more cosy and warm, while the existing lighter colours continue to make me feel clean-cut and clear. I told him, that a guy cant have everything too perfect and synchronized or that will be a little gay. Sometimes, we need something out-of-the -blue to add that element of challenge and uniqueness. Ah, the wonder sometimes of colours, is quite inexplicable really! To cut a long story short, chocolate brown is a good colour to have in a room! =p
