Merry Christmas, my dear friends!!!!

It is christmas time again.... my favourite season of the year..... although this year I am not able to reward myself as much as before (cos no bonus... on no-pay leave... :( )I am feeling extremely blessed and loved.....hee....

A strange phenomenon had happened this year..... I have continuously been receiving gifts of things that I already owned.... some of my poor friends had to exchange my gifts for a new item that is unique to me..... it is also through this strange experience that I realised how blessed I am.... it made me realised that I already own most of the things that I really liked.... also.... it allowed me to realise that how great my friends are..... they actually bothered to spend time thinking about what I would like for chirstmas!!! In a commercialized world like ours, gift-giving had lost much of its meaning for it is just like a meaningless gesture... everyone is in a buying frenzy and gift exchange has became like a part of a social custom that is kept just for conforming to the environment.... I really appreciate the thoughts that all my friends put into the purchase of my gifts.....whether it is a gift that I favour or even whether there is a gift or not is not important as it is really the thought that counts... thank you all my friends for keeping me in your thoughts...... here's to a great 2008 to all of us..... Merry Christmas and keeping you all in my thoughts!!!! :)

Head over heels with my fictional human darling!!!! :)

"Love is a mental illness... "

God is unfair..... he really is.... how can he create someone that is so perfect... talented.... and amazing!!!! I am just back from Lee Hom's floating on water concert.... and he is just undescribly fantastic.... each time I go to one of his performances, I come back believing that perfection exists in our imperfect world..... (and to think I was still pretty lethargic and unenthastic about attending the concert this afternoon...)

I watched the concert at a close range (the distance is probably about the length of my room).... he is so near yet so far.... looking kind of happier (he revealed that he is out of his role... hehe)....belting out one after another of his classic compositions.......playing musical chairs with his musical instruments going from keyboards to acoustic guitar to baby grand to drums... engaging his audience and at the same time getting totally absorbed into performing for the crowd...... looking absolutely wonderful (although a bit tired... he commented that he is actually having a flu and gastric upset......sigh.... and still performing to such a high standard...speechless... )in his lovely white tee that says "love is a mental illness"... (I think I love his fashion designer's sense of humour and insight... wondering if love will become a label in the DSM-V which is rumoured to be out soon.... )

He never fail to amaze me again and again with his performance.... in his case... the best is really yet to be.... each time you think that that must be one of the best performances you have ever attended.... the next concert is even better..... if I am limited to jsut one concert this lifetime... I think I will opt to attend his.... since I am not limited... I shall opt to attend many of his concerts..... please do come back soon.... I miss your performance already......

For those who missed it and who are interested.... I will post up the videos if there is a kind hearted soul who would tell me how to do so... in the meanwhile... just enjoy the few pictures I have!!! hehe....
