Sympathique

I love this song so much. It's on Starbuck's Rendevouz de Paris compilation I bought since 2001..

Never though I found anyone liking this song... or even knowing this song

I found someone not only know this song..but they said they LOVE IT!!

I love it too!!!

It's Monday March 13th

Don't know how often people feel like this,
but, to me, I've been feeling like time flies by so fast!

I felt like I just celebrated New Year not long ago,
but this is mid March already -- almost 1/4 of the year 2006 already gone.
quite scary, huh?

There are still several things I wanna do but have not yet accomplished..
Hmmmm

Q House Bldg - on my way home

~~~~~><~~~~~

Better mood today.
Although things are the same as yesterday.

In time of stress like this,
it's not enough to wait but to reach out to others

So I picked up the phone and started the conversation to those people I missed

At least they should know that they have not been forgotten by me
I don't care if they might not be in a very good mood
Hopefully I could at least take their mind off from trouble
and smile for a few mins.

~~~~~><~~~~~

Had a new haircut yesterday
I have a bang now
hu hu hu

in the car on the way back home

Got sick

Alarm went off but I couldn't get myself up... feeling so weak and pain all over my body. my throat felt so sore and dry.. my head felt so heavy.. I fell back to my pillow.

My dad brought me to the hospital, the doctor said that this symptom I had was due to not enought rest and gave me Amoxil for my sore throat and other cold medicine.

Amoxycillin: good medicine but stinks!

She told me the same thing as other doctors I've seen "get a lot of rest. Don't go to bed late and avoid getting stress" ho ho ho I'd love to be able to do so too...

would you do me a favor.... please tell my bosses that for me?

Some Good Dog advice!

A colleague sent me this in an email... it's just so cute I can't resist to share it with you.

If a dog was the teacher you would learn stuff like:

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.

Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.

When it's in your best interest, practice obedience.

Let others know when they've invaded your territory.

Take naps.

Stretch before rising.

Run, romp, and play daily.

Thrive on attention and let people touch you.

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.

On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.

On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.

When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.

No matter how often you're scolded,
don't buy into the guilt thing and pout...
run right back and make friends.

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.

Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.

Stop when you have had enough.

Be Loyal.

Never pretend to be something you're not.

If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.

..and my most favorite ^.^

When someone is having a bad day,
be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.

Gigabyte Friday

It's so unlikely for FP&A people not to hang out together on Friday night... somehow out of tiredness, we've been away from clubbing for quite some time... several weeks

I was originally invited (since several weeks ago) by old friend to fix Feb 17 for karaoke night with her and other friends.. turned out the team lead for the occassion had to cancel it :( I would go Salsa except none of my Salsa friends were available this Friday...so I guess I should go with my FP&A gang.. it's been a while not going out with them...

Well, I don't stay disappointed for long :) My FP&A gang were going to nung-len' and I'm always welcome..so I'm going!

For some stupid reason they didn't let Alvena in becuz she didn't bring her passport...although she did bring a valid photo id with birthdate... but they insisted to see only passport...so we move to Gigabyte on Ekamai 12 instead.

The place was quite nice! My favorite is the band!! the songs were pretty good and the place isn't too packed like lung-suan, where there wasn't even enough air to breath.

btw, Nancy lend me her brand new tank top for this occassion as I wasn't prepared for clubbing at all. Thanks Nancy!

This thing called LOVE

"Honestly, if you're not willing to sound stupid,
you're not deserve to be in love"
Emily: A Lot Like Love

Love me when I least deserve it,
because that's when I really need it.
- Swedish proverb

To write a good love letter,
you ought to begin without knowing what you mean to say
and to finish without knowing what you have written.
- Jean Jacques Rousseau

Remember that the best relationship is the one
where your love for each other is greater than your need for each other.

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other
but in looking outward together in the same direction.
- Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,always hopes, always perseveres.”
[1 Corinthians 13:4-7]

"You're beautiful"
- James Blunt
..someone used to sing me this song...
it makes me smile everytime I hear it :)

Don't cry because it's over,
Smile because it happenned.

Pray for good luck in the year of dog

Chinese Temple-- Wat Leng-Nei-Yi

The place was packed with Thai-Chinese people going there to pray for good luck in the year of dog.

I went there yesterday with my bro and sis-in-law. I didn't really get a chance to take pictures as I had to hold 33 lit incense sticks in one hand and be very careful not to burn someone or get burnt by someone else :-P

Salsa night

Few days ago, I read a magazine and it really hit me that I've never tried Salsa dance in my life ever.

Somehow I talked to Indria about workout at gym and do something fun like dancing for an exercise.... all of sudden, she mentioned a salsa lesson -- she can read my mind!
That was earlier this week..I've been waiting for Friday to go to Fogo Vivo for the Salsa lesson... and here I am ...













The steps weren't hard to follow...but I still couldn't make a very nice spin :P I had a lot of fun though. I was a real beginner...same as "Joe" who came for the 2nd time.

Oh I met "Jimmy", who is originally from Chicago. He has been to Thai temple on Broadway+Lawrence and knew some of my good friends there too... it's such a small world.

Talked to some of my friends and (at least) a few more people will go Salsa with me next Friday!! This is exciting :)

6.0 Meeting

Had a presentation today at 10am... Feel like I can still do a lot better..
First of all, I should speak s l o w e r . . . . . recollect my thoughts one at a time.

Anyway, I do love this meeting though, it's great to hear MD's sharp thoughts and questions. Love to hear smart answers as well.

Always great to be around smart people, so I can see there's still a long way for me to go ^_^


When we seek to discover the best in others,
we somehow bring out the best in ourselves.

Friday night out

It's Friday again, after a looooong hard week, we need to have some fun.

This is our first Friday night out in Y2006...

We agreed to go to Lang-suan, which is the closest to office, to chill out...have dinner... and get some drinks.

N' Ann joined us too. It's not her first time with us...but it's the first time she wanted to "have some drink"...something stronger than coke on ice ^_^

Other folks later joined us: Nutt, new FMP in FP&A, Beau, Nutt's old friend since Monach U in Melbourne and Nutt's colleague from Silicone whom I don't remember the name (sorry). MooDang, Aum, N' Joy. But Ae and Nancy couldn't come as occupied with urgent work....

Ae+ FMP, Nut, and P' Taai (tax) also joined us abit later. P' Taai got so surprised to see Ann and I dancing as she thought Ann and I must be reserved and shy type... haahh this is not the 1st time people said that to me...interesting.

Noom Sudthipon came by just in time to sing happy birthday to him with tequila shot. He turned 27 today.

Break away the routine!

Some people don't like to change their daily routine....I agree that myself...most of the time I feel more safe and secure to do things the way I used to.

Anyhow, whenever I feel the *urge * to do something new, I try not to resist myself...

It doesn't have to be anything big... just something different... although it might end up not very good..or really bad..... At least now I know what it's like... one more question in life is answered.

In my personal opinion, if it's not something proven immoral or simply bad to do (like kill someone), let's just try it at least once. I mean **anything**...cut your 5-year-long hair short, learn a musical instrument, buy a sport car, change your job, move to other country, start keeping a blog...

Life is short...you''ll never know if you never try, right?

^_^

Just like Heaven

Joy and I decided to go for a movie "Just like heaven". Indria joined us as well.

Didn't think I will like the movie that much. Thought it's just some chic-flick movie. Reese was quite annoying in the begining of the movie. She reminded me of her part in "Election". Mark Ruffalo was an actor whom I didn't recall I ever seen his movie.

Surprisingly enough, just before the middle of the movie, I felt like I know the 2 main charactors -- Elizabeth and David-- for so long! I felt so sad for David when he thought he will never see Lizzy again....and I ended up tearing when Lizzy woke up but could not remember who David was....

This movie is officially on my crying movie list-- next to 'Nothing Hill' and 'Where the Heart Is'...
