Back to the same grind......

Today is the last day for the holidays and it will be back to work tomorrow. And back to the same old grind again. I guess all is not wasted these few days of holiday. I managed to get some rest, and just relax myself. I managed to make time for playing my cello, made time to work on my mix (which is pretty half done) and I managed to catch up on the animes I downloaded and missed out earlier. On top of that, I managed to make time to listen to most of the music I have missed out - Safri Duo and Armin Van Buuren! On top of that, its Armin Van Buuren LIVE!!! Not forgetting I finally managed to have the time to watch L'Arc~en~Ciel's 15th annivesary concert LIVE in Tokyo Dome - for those who want to know you can check them out at http://www.larc-en-ciel.com/ they are my favourite Japanes rock band.

It is raining now and it is pouring pretty heavily at the moment. Surprising to have it raining during this time around. After all, so many years of my life it has never rained during the Chinese New Year period. But this year, it has rained throughout all the days of Chinese New Year. Probably to usher in the dry season, which should last for the next three months I supposed. The way I look at it, the global weather trend has changed dramatically and it at times appears scary to me. Temperatures are rising, rains and storms getting heavier, and winds blowing at speeds that are dangerous. Are we headed towards a bleak future? Have we humans raped the world of its richness once meant for all of us? All are we all headed towards the very end for all us without us knowing, and no where to run?

hiatus!

After having been online on the ~Path of Time~ since 2006..... it is going to be hard, painful and sad. As of today, I will officially stop writing on the ~Path of Time~. For those who have continued to read my posts, I thank you very much for taking timeout to read my posts. I am not sure if all my writings were great but I'll be happy to know even if it was only one post that reached your heart. I may one day pick up from where I left off here but only time will tell. Who knows I might even start afresh? Until next time.......... time stops ticking for the ~Path of Time~

one foot in the past, another in the future........ what about the present?

All of us go through a cycle, what we commonly call - the past, present and the future. It can probably be summed up by this simple phrase: " we come from the past to be in the present and look forward to the future ". Now, what I want you to do is take a step back, or just give your mind a minute or two to digest the above mentioned phrase. Ask yourself if it applies to you. Really ask yourself; and I mean REALLY ask yourself in the most honest of manner, whether it really applies to you. You may find it difficult to arrive at a 'yes' and even if you do, you probably find yourself in a paralysis state of mind trying to justify the 'yes'. If you really ponder about it, you are likely to find that most of us would find this phrase more relevant instead: " we come from the past and look forward to the future " You will find many of us either hang on to the past or look far too forward into the future, or likely for some to even be dwelling too much in ...

my first tow truck ride

It was like every other Saturday morning for me yesterday. Woke up early to get breakfast, get ready for my weekly rock climbing sessions. I felt pretty good yesterday since I managed to sleep the night before so I was feeling very energized and upbeat about my climb session. I might have spoke too soon though because my car decided to pull a fast one on me. I found it surprising because I always went on preventive maintenance for my car so I really wasn't expecting any breakdowns especially I didn't hear any sound symptoms, neither did I saw any signs of an impending breakdown. After all, it is only logical that mechanical parts would give out some form of symptoms to let you know it's about to go. I was actually driving myself to rock climbing, feeling all geared up and gung-ho about it. As I approached an uphill climb and right bend, I realised I was losing compression and the car was starting not respond to my pedal work on the accelerator. To make matters worse because...
