the month that was: May`

i gotta say... May was really fast. at least for me it was.
i really shouldnt be doing this, not now, not tonight, as i still after all, have a 0730 admin meeting to attend the next morning.
anyhow, a slow and serene scanning of my previous logs, and i am now feeling all calm and zen-ish to just slot in some few lines, maybe . . .

May was fast, primarily i tink, due to my 3weeks plus of OT-ing at the office with Audrey, the sometimes Loon, Zie, K and the on-off Dilla. daily bouts of waking up blurry-eyed, then woeking throughout the day, and then into the night after some dinner (sometimes supper), did not bode well with my system at all. thinking back now, jogs at my fav green haunt were not as enjoyable, nights after OT were spent in front of the then new 40" LCD, refusing to simply let the night sink under the Suzhou silk sheets...

and then, before you know it... it all came to an abrupt end. had not anticipated the job to be completed so soon, anyhow, no complaints in that dept from me! celebrated that weekend itself with a nice meal with mom, sis and yang at Victoria Station, medan damansara... Gorgeous steaks..~ thick with wild mushroom sauce.. yumm~!
and the next day, the gang were game for some bangsar do ~ and so we were at Alexis. . . my dear mates were deprived of their darling tiramisu, but still, i had my fair share of relaxation with the bottle of red. yes, unintruded relaxation for a chill out saturday night . . . ~

next thing which came up, the Wesak Day weekend swings by . . . it was time for our trip uphill. =D
yes, we brought mom along with us ~ yay! hahah!
we enjoyed the fact that she enjoyed her trips to the casino at First World.
we enjoyed the fact that yang is getting old enough to not fit into most of the kiddy rides, yet not big enough for the outdoor rides.
we enjoyed the fact too that, our tickets to the Khalil Fong concert at the Arena of Stars was very well worth it . . . not yet an entirely huge, Huge fan, but still. . . he was amazing to watch all the same. now that i'd checked on it, he covered all the songs from his Timeless album (the concert after all, was named Timeless~), and quite a few numbers from his previous albums too~ we saw that he was everywhere on the stage. no, not dancing or prancing around in slick moves, but~! with the guitars, on the keyboards, the grand piano, even on the drums~!! and he had this funny gadget that changes his voice as he sings into it. i think that was when he did Stevie Wonder's you are the sunshine of my life . . . hahah!
the joy of watching the performance rolled out L!VE right in front of you, yes~!! very 'alive' indeed~!!!



and now, after the dreaded 0730 meeting in a couple of hours later, will look forward to packing my bags, for a 4d3n Phuket re-trip . . .
will be on leave for 3days straight... the beloved co. has had the infamous "Joint Leave" rule re-installed . . . so i guess i'll just be hanging around at home come wednesday...

like what i'd put in my FB statuses (couldnt help it . . . ):
... like a wobbly boat ride in choppy waters, you're never sure you're safe until you reach shore...
but then, the irony that is~ even after reaching shore, the tides can still pull you offshore all the same... =S



another itch scratched...
