NEW BLOG ANNOUNCEMENT


I've got me a brand new blog at http://herkillerheels.blogspot.com


It's a little snazzier and sassier and...haha, perhaps a better representation of who I am now.

Dawnology.blogspot.com will continue to exist of course, but I will no longer be updating it.

See ya at my new blog!

Something old, something new...


In general, something nice (in my humble opinion) is in the works,
and it's ready for unveiling soon! ; )

I Heart Singapore


Teared while watching National Day Parade 2008 earlier in the evening.

It's a regular occurence every year.

The difference is, as I did not manage to catch the parade in absolute privacy (that is, within the sanctuary of my room) this year, I was less of a sobbing mess. The tears just sort of rolled around in the socket of my eyes.

Each year, the tears get especially bad when songs like "We Are Singapore" come on...when we are reminded of how we beat the odds by lyrics like "There was a time when people said that Singapore won't make it, but we did/There was a time when trouble seemed too much for us to take, but we did..."

I am just so so so proud of Singapore and all that she has managed to achieve for herself within the short span of a mere 43 years...that's a very young age, for a country. Especially one that is no more than a tiny dot on the world map, and one that is without natural resources of any kind. I am truly glad that I am lucky enough to be born a Singaporean.

Happy Birthday, Singapore!

The power to say "NO"...to myself


In the early hours of 15 July 2008, at precisely 12.30am, I did something that I wanted to stop doing for a long time, for the last time.

From now onwards, I want it to be out of my life completely.

And I want myself to be powerful enough to do that.

I know I can.

Congratulations to me ; )

我们爱你 II


今天是阳历7月5日。。。

就这样,你离开了我们整整一个月。

不知道为什么,感觉上,你像是离开了很久了。。。就是不像“一个月”感觉上那么短的时间。

感觉上,从你离开的那一天起,我们像是过了一世。




我已经不会动不动就流眼泪了。。。很多时候甚至还能够被某些事逗得大笑。。。但是,每天都会想起你好几回。。。一想起,心就会痛,就会忍不住叹气,就会有很多很多的遗憾。。。

很遗憾,你是那么那么那么的疼爱我,但我从来都不曾为你真正做过些什么。。。甚至到了最后,无论我怎么想,都不太想得起你爱吃什么。

很遗憾,你是那么那么那么的疼爱我,我却记不起这么多年里,在你还好好的日子里,我有没有对你说过
“我爱你”。

很遗憾,你是那么那么那么的疼爱我,我却来不及让你对我放心,为我感到骄傲。

很遗憾,虽然你的离开让我们大家学会珍惜,也因此几乎在一夜之间拉近了多年的距离,但这一切却来得太迟。。。你来不及参与。




不过你放心,虽然这些遗憾有时会把我压得喘不过气,但我会将这些遗憾转化为动力。

我会努力学习如何把自己人生的各个环节理好整理好,如何把自己做到最好。

同时,我也会努力学习如何好好照顾所有的家人和维系大家的感情。




最重要的是,我会学会珍惜。。。因为太多事都有可能忽然停止。。。只有珍惜过,才不会有遗憾。

我们爱你

一个星期过去了。。。

心情始终没有办法真正平复。。。

虽然知道你现在真的应该过得很好。。。

虽然知道你也很想我们每一个都能过得好。。。

但是,真的很难。

很难,很难,很难。。。

不过。。。请你放心,安心的离开吧。。。去好好开始下一段旅程。。。不要留恋,也不要挂念。

我们都会好好的。。。你也要好好的。。。

你永远都会在我们的心里。。。我们爱你。

My Breakfast Mistake - McGriddles


Its individual components sounded delightful enough - soft bread infused with maple syrup, and good ol' familiar sausage patty with egg and cheese.

In reality, it's a disastrous combo that ruined my breakfast.

Maple syrup is just wrong with sausage, egg and cheese.

Especially cheese.

To sum it up, McGriddles is the equivalent of tucking your sausage patty, egg and cheese between two slabs of soggy pancakes soaked with maple syrup.

One bite later, I was already wishing I had stuck to my usual order of Sausage McMuffin with Egg.

It's not just me - reviews online haven't been all that positive too.

I am thinking, it's not just my breakfast mistake...it might just be McDonald's as well.
